TNA Against All Odds notes: Trick Williams, Director of Authority, Killer Kelly
Notes from Friday’s TNA Against All Odds event.
Santino Marella defeated Robert Stone in the co-main event of the TNA+ special to retain his Director of Authority position. Despite Stone paying off special guest referee Matt Cardona in an earlier segment, Cardona kept it down the middle. Arianna Grace at ringside helped her father by throwing Stone off the turnbuckle and gave Santino a second cobra, allowing him to hit his finish on Stone for the win.
In the main event. Trick Williams retained the TNA title over Elijah thanks to the help of AJ Francis, who came to ringside towards the end of the match. He initially teased introducing Elijah’s guitar into the ring, but this was a distraction that allowed Williams to take the TNA title and blast it across Elijah’s face. Elijah did kick out, but Williams ended up sending Elijah into an exposed turnbuckle then hit the trickshot for the win.
It was a night of returns in the Knockouts division, as The IInspiration made their return during the pre-show. Killer Kelly also made her return to TNA, coming to the ring after former tag team partner Masha Slamovich retained the Knockouts title. Kelly had a chain and laid it on the floor in front of Slamovich before leaving.
Kelly took time off last year from TNA and later announced in November the birth of her and Myron Reed’s baby girl.
