#3 Mickie James addressed the IMPACT Zone

The entire Knockouts division surrounded the ring for the announcement as IMPACT Wrestling Hall of Famer Gail Kim introduced Knockouts World Champion, Mickie James.

James heaped praise on the Knockouts division, starting with The IInspiration, Jordynne Grace, and Deonna Purrazzo. The latter, however, stormed off calling the entire thing a waste of time.

James stated that she would be making history by being the first outsider champion to compete in a Rumble match. She stated that she would win the Rumble and defend the Knockouts Championship in a title for a title match at WrestleMania.

Chelsea Green stepped up and asked James for a title shot. Before the champion could answer, Tasha Steelz entered the fray with Savannah Evans. Steelz stated that by courtesy of winning the Ultimate X match, she is the number one contender and decided to challenge James at No Surrender. A brawl broke out between the four as Green and James stood tall, forcing Steelz and Evans to retreat.
