Description
Alexandra Cortez thought her wrestling career was over the night one bad landing left her legs paralyzed and her dreams shattered. Now she hides behind ink and fabric, designing edgy merch for TNA as a way to stay close to the world that broke her. Every shirt, every hoodie, feels like a reminder of the ring she'll never step into again. Then Kelani Jordan arrives. Fresh from NXT and newly crowned the TNA Knockouts Champion at Bound for Glory, Kelani is everything Alexandra resents: bright, golden, adored, and carrying the title Alexandra once bled for. But when Kelani shocks everyone by requesting Alexandra, and only Alexandra, to design her first championship merch line, Alexandra is dragged out from the shadows and back into the spotlight she's spent years avoiding. Forced into late-night creative sessions and tense backstage run-ins, Alexandra and Kelani clash at every turn: punk grit versus polished optimism, jagged scars against unshakable hope. Yet beneath the rivalry, threads begin to weave between them,threads of trust, vulnerability, and a longing neither of them expected.
