Single source, not confirmed. Heat 2/5 · Chatter
This is a rumor and it is not confirmed. Fightful Select reports that Xia Brookside's TNA contract expires at the end of the year, and that TNA has made her an offer to stay. Neither TNA nor Brookside has commented in anything we read.
The quick version
- Not confirmed by TNA or Brookside.
- Reliability: Single source, not confirmed. Fightful Select is the origin. Wrestlezone and eWrestlingNews relay it.
- Fightful Select says talks have happened and that TNA communicated an offer, but not whether she has accepted.
What is being reported
Fightful posted a one-line item on Friday, Nov. 13, citing Fightful Select: "Xia Brookside's TNA contract expires at the end of the year." The rest is for paid subscribers, so we read only that public line.
Wrestlezone and eWrestlingNews quote more of the Select report. They say there have been contract talks and that TNA has communicated an offer in hopes that Brookside stays. They also say she is still booked for several upcoming TNA tapings, and that if the sides do not agree she is expected to look at other options. We could not check those details against the paid report.
What we know for certain
Fightful describes Brookside as a former TNA Knockouts World Champion. She joined The Righteous on the Nov. 5 Thursday Night Impact after attacking Harley Hudson, per TNA's results and Fightful. She is named for the six-woman Knockouts Ultimate X match at Destination X on Sunday, Nov. 15, in Edmonton, per our earlier story. See our Destination X card story.
Where this fits
Trey Miguel said on the record to Cultaholic that his TNA deal also ends this year. See our Miguel story. We have also run two earlier unconfirmed contract reports from Fightful Select: Mustafa Ali and Rich Swann. Brookside's report differs from those in one way: it says TNA has already made an offer.
What would confirm or kill it
A TNA announcement of a new deal, or a post from Brookside, would end the rumor. So would a different end date. A new contract would make this a confirmed story, and we will update this page either way.
