TNA has unveiled the new Knockouts World Championship title belt. 

With the company reverting to TNA branding beginning with Saturday’s Hard to Kill, new belts are being designed to reflect the change.

D’Amore said: 

Trinity, it’s been so great having you join us here in Impact Wrestling but things are about to change a little bit as we return to TNA Wrestling. You’ve been an amazing face for the Knockouts division and I think it’s time we give that championship a bit of a facelift and I present you with the new TNA Knockouts World Championship.
