In a recent interview with Paltrocast With Darren Paltrowitz, IMPACT Wrestling’s Gail Kim revealed that the company had discussed the idea of bringing back the Knockouts Knockdown event several months ago.

“We started to chat about bringing back the special a couple of months ago and then we wanted to, obviously Mickie announced her’s, so of course we support her in every way possible and she did such a great job, what an inspiration for her to be able to stick to her guns and fight for what she wanted and come out successful and I was truly honored to be a part of that.

It was emotionally fulfilling and just watching all the girls, for them as well and that’s what we want, to continue our tradition of Knockouts Knockdown. It’s going to be a little bit different from what it was in the past, but I think we kept the name because we knew the fans were familiar with the show and we wanted to bring that nostalgia back and to say hey, we’re bringing this back for all the women’s wrestling fans out there.”
