Mickie James is Knockouts Champion once again.
'Hardcore Country' challenged Deonna Purrazzo for the Knockouts Championship at Bound For Glory on October 23 and after a back and forth, personal contest, James left Sam's Town in Las Vegas, Nevada with the gold.
After James somehow managed to kick out of a Queen's Gambit from Purrazzo down the stretch, the 42-year-old took advantage of a ref bump and caught Deonna with a Mick Kick while the Knockouts Champion was holding a steel chair, sending the weapon into Purrazzo's face. Shortly after, Mickie hit a second Tornado DDT for the 1-2-3.
With the win, James becomes a four-time Knockouts Champion, having previously held the title for a combined 241 days.
James had spent the last five years with WWE but she returned to IMPACT for a third time at Slammiversary following her release from Vince McMahon's company.
'Hardcore Country' immediately began a feud with Deonna Purrazzo in a rivalry that has featured a barn brawl at James' home and much more.
