Victoria Crawford, known to WWE fans for over a decade as Alicia Fox, made her official debut for TNA Wrestling during the live May 1st episode of TNA Impact on AXS TV. Crawford appeared as part of a major surprise segment that also saw the return of NXT personality Robert Stone (formerly TNA’s Robbie E) to the promotion, immediately establishing herself in both an authority role and the Knockouts World Championship picture.
The segment began with Robert Stone confronting TNA Director of Authority Santino Marella. Stone revealed that TNA management had appointed him to evaluate Marella’s performance. He then introduced Victoria Crawford, announcing her new position as the “Deputy Director of Authority.” This marks Crawford’s first official role with a major promotion since her departure from WWE.
In their first act, Stone and Crawford made a significant title match announcement. Crawford will challenge the reigning TNA Knockouts World Champion, Masha Slamovich, for the title at the upcoming TNA Under Siege event. The pay-per-view is scheduled for May 23rd at the CAA Centre in Brampton, Ontario, Canada, as officially announced by TNA. Slamovich recently defended her title against Tessa Blanchard at TNA Rebellion.
Crawford brings extensive experience to TNA, having spent roughly 17 years with WWE under the Alicia Fox name. During her WWE tenure, she held the Divas Championship and was a fixture in the women’s division for many years. After leaving WWE, she made select appearances on the independent circuit under the name Vix Crow before this TNA debut under her real name.
