List of TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Champions

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

The TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling world tag team championship contested in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).

The championship is generally contested in professional wrestling matches, in which participants execute scripted finishes rather than contend in direct competition. The inaugural championship team was Sarita and Taylor Wilde. Spitfire (Dani Luna and Jody Threat) are the current champions in their first reign as a team and individually. They defeated MK Ultra (Killer Kelly and Masha Slamovich) on March 8, 2024 at Sacrifice.

As of April 19, 2024, there have been 23 reigns shared between 31 wrestlers and 20 teams. As a team Decay has the most reigns at three, while individually, Rosemary has the record with four. As a team, Eric Young and ODB have the longest reign at 478 days, while the team of Jordynne Grace and Rachael Ellering have the shortest reign at 20 days.
