The crossover between WWE and TNA Wrestling continued on Friday with three NXT wrestlers showing up at a TNA event.

Izzi Dame, Charlie Dempsey, and Myles Borne all made surprise appearances at the first night of TNA’s television tapings in Philadelphia. Dame was the opponent for Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace, while Dempsey & Borne of No Quarter Catch Crew look to have started a program with The Rascalz.

After defeating Tatum Paxley at TNA Against All Odds, Grace issued another open challenge on Friday and again had it answered by an NXT wrestler. She defeated Dame to retain the Knockouts Championship.

This was Dame’s first-ever match outside of the WWE system. Before signing with WWE in 2022, she was a volleyball player for Eastern Michigan University.

Dempsey, the son of William Regal, made his presence felt at the TNA tapings in an angle where he interrupted a match between Trey Miguel and Leon Slater. Dempsey beat down Miguel, Slater, Zachary Wentz, and the referee.

Later in the night, Dempsey faced off against Wentz in a match where Borne interfered. Dempsey and Borne are stablemates in No Quarter Catch Crew with Damon Kemp and Tavion Heights.

The growing partnership between WWE and TNA has also seen TNA wrestlers Grace, Joe Hendry, and Frankie Kazarian appear for NXT recently.

TNA will be back at Philly’s 2300 Arena on Saturday for the final night of this weekend’s tapings.
