TNA’s latest attempt at a worked-shoot angle occurred during Sunday’s Knockout Championship match at Bound for Glory.
During the match, Tara got into a physical confrontation with a woman in the crowd. Not sold as an obvious storyline by the announcing team, confusion was created as to what happened.
PWInsider confirms that the woman with whom Tara “fought” was Kim Couture, the female MMA fighter (and ex-wife of Randy Couture) with whom Tara had been in a war of words in recent months. Jeremy Borash further confirmed the woman’s identity on his Twitter.
The incident was a storyline and was deliberately downplayed by the broadcast team to strengthen the “worked shoot” aura. Borash advertises a follow-up on the confrontation for this week’s iMPACT.
