“Rip Off”: Fans Hilariously Troll Dana Brooke Over Her Strikingly Similar Appearance With Tony Khan’s Top Female AEW Wrestler Moments After Her TNA Hard to Kill Debut

At TNA’s Hard to Kill PPV, the promotion teased the signing of a “big signing,” as hyped by the president of TNA, Scott D’Amore. With a limo being shown with a massive star inside it, fans were excited to see who the hype-worthy pro-wrestler could be.

And finally, we have an answer to this big question, as the fans were greeted by the ringside appearance of Ash by Elegance, also known to WWE fans as Dana Brooke. Was the signing worth the hype? What do the fans think of it? Let’s find out!

A Toni Storm rip-off?

When the big reveal came to the surface and Ash by Elegance made her way to the ringside for the Knockouts World Title match between Trinity and Jordynne Grace, fans were less than elated. When the hype about a massive signing provided intrigue, they expected a massive star to make her way to the promotion.

And the star power that the former Dana Brooke brought wasn’t the only problem the fans had. The wrestling faithful complained about how her entire gimmick, from her appearance to her mannerisms, seemed like a copy of AEW’s Toni Storm.

Storm has been one of the crowd favorites in AEW. No wonder that TNA felt the need to try and imitate her gimmick. However, they aimed to pull off a tall task as the hype around Ash by Elegance was lacking as it garnered lackluster reactions. So much so that fans felt the need to rush to social media and let their fury known.

One user criticized the blatant ripoff of the visual aesthetic to that of Storm too.

While the public reception to the decision has been negative so far, we cannot count Brooke out already. She has created intrigue around a possible title contender run. Moreover, with a recent change in the Knockouts World Championship title reign, it would be fun to see how Ash by Elegance manages to turn this hate into fan support.
