Mr. Elegance Quits The Elegance Brand

Thursday’s TNA Impact! show on AMC and Sportsnet 360 featured Mr. Elegance leaving The Elegance Brand.

Mr. Elegance leaving the group was initially setup over recent weeks shows over M By Elegance taking over control of the group while Ash By Elegance was absent. During the TNA Knockouts Television Championship match between M By Elegance and Jada Stone, Mr. Elegance got on the apron to interfere only to be accidentally booted by M after Stone ducked her kick. Later in the match, Heather By Elegance got on the apron to distract the referee as M demanded Mr. Elegance to slip her the title belt to use on Stone. Mr. Elegance refused still being upset over what happened earlier and told M that he quits and proceeded to leave on his own while the match was still going on.
