The February 3 episode of NXT was quite an episode, and they dealt with a lot. This included a TNA Knockouts Tag Team Title match.

The TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championship was on the line as The Elegance Brand defended the titles against ZaRuca. This match had an unexpected element as Sol Ruca and Zaria weren’t seeing eye-to-eye recently.

Sol Ruca was in the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble match, and that was a big deal for her. However, Zaria wasn’t there, and she had a problem with Ruca keeping that secret from her. They didn’t even seem to be getting along during their entrance.

Former WWE Superstar Sonya Deville is now Daria Rae in TNA Wrestling as their new authority figure. She was at ringside for this match as she watched on in pride.

The action was fast-paced and quite fierce. The TNA stars obviously wanted to make the most out of this opportunity. Heather and M by Elegance tagged in and out and ruled this match. The whole Elegance faction was celebrating as they cut to a commercial break as their assault continued.

There was some tension between Zaria and Sol Ruca during the match. Zaria refused to tag out to Sol Ruca, and fans were getting upset over this. Fans chanted “We Want Sol” as the match continued with her just standing on the ring apron. Then they started singing her name in a soccer chant. Even though Zaria was getting run down, she didn’t tag Sol Ruca. Suddenly, Sol tagged herself in and got to work.

Sol Ruca rallied and really showed off her talent. Then the Elegance Brand used their dirty tactics, and the fact that they worked as a team, to get the upperhand on Ruca. The match continued and then Sol and Zaria got into a shoving match before nailing duel spears on the TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions.

Suddenly, Ruca went for a Sol Snatcher, and she accidentally hit Zaria. Then the Elegance Brand got their finisher off and won to retain the titles. The Elegance Brand left smiling and The Suit, Daria Rae, giving their titles back.

Sol Ruca and Zaria were left all alone in the ring. Then the segment ended without any resolution. We’ll have to see how much longer NXT can go before pulling the trigger on their breakup.
