Indi Hartwell joins TNA Wrestling after WWE departure.
During the TNA Rebellion pay-per-view at the Galen Center in Los Angeles, California, TNA Wrestling announced Indi Hartwell as the newest addition to their Knockouts division. Hartwell expressed her excitement about joining TNA, saying, “I mean, like, you can hear them. Gia, this is a dream come true for me, honestly. Like, oh, yeah. It’s a dream come true for me, and I want to say it’s officially official. Indi Hartwell has crossed the line.”
The announcement of the former WWE Superstar signing with TNA Wrestling received huge cheers from the fans. She is scheduled to appear on the upcoming live episode of TNA IMPACT, airing from the Bren Events Center in Irvine, California, on May 1.
Before joining TNA, Hartwell performed in WWE’s SmackDown tag team division alongside Candice LeRae. On October 25, she and LeRae lost to Bayley & Naomi in Hartwell’s last match. Shortly after, WWE released her from her contract in November 2024.
Since her release, Hartwell has competed in various independent wrestling promotions. Now that she has signed with TNA Wrestling, and with TNA’s recent partnership with WWE NXT, it’ll be interesting to see if Hartwell appears in any cross-brand matches. In the meantime, all eyes will be on her first appearance, scheduled to take place this week on TNA IMPACT.
Indi Hartwell delivers a message to the TNA Knockouts division
Indi Hartwell, who recently joined the TNA Knockouts division, has a message for everyone. She took to Twitter (now X) to declare, “LINE CROSSED – The Knockout has arrived,” putting the entire Knockouts division on notice.
Currently, Masha Slamovich holds the TNA Knockouts World Championship. She defeated Tessa Blanchard at TNA Rebellion. With Indi Hartwell sending out her message, the question remains: will the champion confront her on TNA IMPACT? Only time will tell.
