Indi Hartwell Joins TNA Knockouts Following WWE Release

Indi Hartwell, a former WWE and NXT Women's Champion, has officially signed with TNA Wrestling and debuted at the TNA Rebellion pay-per-view, joining the Knockouts division. Hartwell expressed her excitement about the move on social media, describing it as a 'dream come true' and received a warm reception from fans at the event. Her signing continues TNA's trend of recruiting notable ex-WWE talent, as the company also recently signed former WWE stars such as Elias (now Elijah) and featured Sidney Akeem in the Ultimate X match at Rebellion. Since her WWE release in November 2023, Hartwell has competed on the independent scene, including a notable match against Mercedes Mone. The TNA Rebellion event also underscored the promotion's ongoing cross-promotional activities with WWE, with several NXT talents participating in key matches. Hartwell is set to discuss her signing further on an upcoming episode of Impact.
