According to a report from Squared Circle Sirens, Impact Wrestling Knockout Laurel Van Ness has reportedly asked for her release from the company after the most recent set of tapings. The company has not granted her release yet but the site reports that is expected to so soon.



Laurel Van Ness signed with Impact back in June of 2016 after first making an appearance on Xplosion where she squared off against Jade. Throughout her time with Impact, she aligned herself with Maria Kanellis as part of The Lady Squad and orchestrated a plot to marry fellow Impact Wrestling star Braxton Sutter. Sutter rejected Van Ness during a in-ring wedding which sparked the start of Van Ness’ broken heart bride gimmick.

As seen on this week’s Impact Wrestling (November 30th), Laurel Van Ness defeated KC Spinelli and Madison Rayne in a Triple Threat Match to advance in the first rounds of the Knockouts Title tournament. The title was vacated after TNA Hall of Famer Gail Kim relinquished the belt as part of in-ring retirement.

Sad because she won the KOs tournament and is the current KOs champion. Now she wants out.

She had grown on me...Maybe heading to WWE. she's still dating Zack Ryder, after all...

Is there anybody left? That said the big thing I took from this is that Ryder is not with Emma. Guess I'm behind on my gossip...

Shame she never got time to really shine alone. She was always someone else pawn in whatever TNA is calling themselves this week.

Yeah they ended months ago.

And TNA already has 3 new Los that have been featured recently. And I believe Taya will be back when they return from Canada

As we noted last week, Impact Wrestling Knockout Laurel Van Ness has requested her release from Impact, however the release has yet to be granted by the company, and as of Friday morning, Van Ness remains under contract with Impact.

In a spoiler regarding this week’s Impact Wrestling episode, Van Ness will win the Knockouts title to become the new Champion after the title was vacated by Gail Kim following Bound for Glory.

According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio, Van Ness requested her release from Impact Wrestling on the same night that she won the Knockouts Title, which was back when Impact was taping TV in Ottawa, Canada. The feeling is that Van Ness should have informed Impact officials, prior to her winning the title, that she wanted to leave the company, so the feeling is her release will not be granted until she has an opportunity to drop the Knockouts Championship

i do think it's messed up to request a release on that particular day. why not ask earlier?

You know a championship title has no prestige when...

Who says, they didn't throw the title at her, hoping she changed her mind?

When a supposed nonwrestler wins it without being aware.
When the following person is a nonwrestler that wins it by her opponent just laying down.
When you can win it from a lock box.
