A former WWE Divas Champion has arrived in TNA.

Former Divas Champion Alicia Fox was released by WWE in May 2023, bringing to an end a run that began back in 2006. At the time, Fox said that she was “p*ssed” about her WWE exit, and made no secret of her frustration at how the company was run.

Despite not leaving the company until mid-2023, Fox hadn’t wrestled a singles match since 2019, only competing in three matches between that bout and her exit.

However, in 2024, under the name Vix Crow, Alicia Fox relaunched her career with a win over Mickie James, before taking on several other independent dates. But she’s now set for the biggest match of her comeback to date after arriving in TNA.

Victoria Crawford To Challenge TNA Star Masha Slamovich

On the May 1 edition of Impact, Fox, now performing under he real name Victoria Crawford, made her official TNA debut alongside WWE NXT authority figure Robert Stone. He announced that he’d been appointed to a special position to monitor the performance of TNA Director of Authority Santino Marella.

Stone then named Crawford as the promotion’s new deputy director of authority before announcing that she’ll challenge Masha Slamovich for the Knockouts Championship at Under Siege on May 23 in her TNA in-ring debut.

Crawford had previously clashed with Slamovich while in the crowd at Unbreakable.
