Xia Brookside earns TNA Knockouts World title match

Xia Brookside & Lei Ying Lee on TNA Rebellion

Xia Brookside has earned herself a shot at the TNA Knockouts World Championship.

On Thursday, during the May 28, 2026, episode of TNA Impact, Brookside pinned reigning Knockouts World Champion Lei Ying Lee in the Champions Challenge match.

Similar to KC Navarro’s match earlier in the night, the stipulation for the women’s Champions Challenge match was identical. It was noted that if a challenger were able to pin one of the champions, they would earn themselves a future title match.

The champions, Lee, Heather, and M by Elegance, teamed up to face Brookside, Elayna Black, and Mara Sade. The finishing moments of the match saw a few interferences before Mr.Elegance caused Lee to trip. This led to Brookside using her Darkside finisher for the pinfall win.

Based on their rivalry over the past few weeks, the result of the match was quite expected. It can be assumed that the two face each other at TNA Slammiversary for the Knockouts World title. Although TNA has not yet announced any official date.
