An advertised initiation ceremony ended in a shocking turn of events during the November 5 episode of TNA iMPACT, as Xia Brookside joined The Righteous following a surprise ambush on Harley Hudson.
The segment was expected to officially crown Hudson as the newest member of the ominous faction led by Vincent and Dutch. However, hesitation from the group’s leadership paved the way for an unexpected new alignment.
Hesitation Leads To Sudden Ambush In The Ring
Vincent and Dutch gathered in the ring to complete Hudson’s induction into the group. Before finalizing the ceremony, Dutch paused to question Hudson’s commitment, forcing her to recite lines in front of the audience:
- The Recitation: Dutch made Hudson admit that while she took her time deciding whether to join the faction, someone else had already made up their mind.
- The Surprise Attack: As Hudson realized what was happening, former Knockouts World Champion Xia Brookside emerged from behind and blindsided her.
- The New Member: Brookside officially aligned herself with Vincent and Dutch, stepping into the faction as their newest member.
Rare Addition To The Righteous Faction
Brookside’s unexpected turn marks a major shift in her career trajectory while expanding the lineup of the ominous group.
The alliance makes her only the second female competitor to ever be integrated into the faction, following Vita VonStarr. With the former champion in their ranks, the group gains a proven singles competitor with championship experience to bolster their presence on Thursday nights.
