Mickie James will be inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame next month.
The promotion announced on Monday that the five-time Knockouts Champion will be honored at Bound for Glory on October 12 in Lowell, Massachusetts.
TNA president Carlos Silva shared the news with James during an appearance on Notsam Wrestling Live on SiriusXM.
James wrestled on the second NWA TNA pay-per-view on June 26, 2002, as part of a Lingerie Battle Royal taped in Huntsville, Alabama, in her lone appearance that year for the upstart.
She returned in 2003 as part of The Gathering, which was led by Raven and included CM Punk and Julio Dinero before signing a developmental deal with WWE and reporting to OVW.
She worked at WWE for seven years, where she became a five-time women’s champion and held the Divas’ title once. She was cut in 2010 and returned to TNA that year.
James won the Knockouts title for the first time in April 2011, beating Madison Rayne at Lockdown, and held it three times during that stint, which lasted until 2013.
After another WWE run from 2016 until 2021, she returned to TNA and won her fourth Knockouts title at Bound for Glory, beating Deonna Purrazzo.
Her fifth and final Knockouts title win occurred at Hard to Kill in January 2023 when she beat Jordynne Grace and continued to wrestle for TNA until October 2023.
TNA Bound for Glory takes place at the Tsongas Center on October 12 in Lowell, Massachusetts.
