– TNA Knockout Tara has posted a blog discussing hitting head on the concrete floor during a match that aired on this past Thursday's episode of Impact. Tara wrote: "So I forgot about this until I saw it, which is kinda funny and kinda concerning. But I banged the holy heck out of my head on last night's TNA Impact. There is definitely a little adjustment as I get into the more hardcore style of wrestling on TNA. Well TNA veteran ODB went to the top rope and jumped onto Kong. It pumped me up so much that I went to the top rope and tried to jump onto the Beautiful People who were outside the ring. Well they are so caked up with makeup and fake tan and herpes creme that I shot right through them, and banged my head on the concrete floor. Next thing I know, referee Earl Hebner was standing over me, asking, "Should I stop this and get the medics?". I told him that I thought I was okay, but it hurt!!! But the important thing is that I came to my senses, got back in the ring, and pinned Kong. And the the fans were chanting "That was awesome"...which was a tremendous feeling. It was an honor to be part of and amazing hardcore match where some of the best female wrestlers worked to their potential and thrilled the fans."
