TNA Wrestling Signs Deal With Playboy Magazine

At yesterday's Comic-Con convention in San Diego, SoCal Val was on hand and told a fan that TNA has signed a deal with Playboy magazine.

A TNA Knockout has already posed for the magazine as Traci Brooks did a shoot during her hiatus from television. It is a big reason why she was suddenly brought back to television this past week in a prominent role. Brooks became a member of The Main Event Mafia by winning a Knockout Battle Royal this past Thursday on Impact.

Jeremy Borash also noted on his Twitter account last night that a Knockout has posed for Playboy.



I hope its awesome kong

Velvet Sky

Fine move TNA

You have something WWE has never had (a good womens division) that can actually draw...

But feck that, instead copy WWE!!!

Really brings credibility to the division.

Angelina Love or Velvet Sky

Hope it's Velvet Sky or Taylor Wilde

did traci actually do a shoot?

I know she said she would like to.

maybe she is the one it means and thats why she is back..

That's exactly why she's back, just so they can plug the fact they have a chick who is in Playboy. Not too bothered about it, can see all the useless slappers in TNA doing shoots while the talented ones concentrate on wrestling, it's win-win

brand wars via playboy

its a start anyway.

As reported over the weekend, TNA Knockout Traci Brooks will be featured in an upcoming issue of Playboy magazine. Brooks recently shot a pictorial for November issue, which hits newsstands on October 5.

Brooks recently spoke to the The Sun about her decision to be the first TNA Knockout pose for the popular men's magazine. "Yes, it's true! I will be the first TNA Knockout ever to grace the cover and pages of Playboy. Shooting with Playboy was truly an amazing experience for me. I can't wait for all my fans to see it."

With WWE's recent shift to family-friendly TV-PG programming, it severed its relationship with Playboy. Much like WWE used to cross-promote their Divas appearing in Playboy with WrestleMania, Traci Brooks' Playboy release will coincide with TNA's biggest show of the year, Bound for Glory. She told The Sun, "I will be doing a big media tour in October to promote it plus several autograph signings."

Do you think Brooks will receive a TNA Knockout's Championship match at Bound for Glory then?

yeah she probably will & the storyline will be the beautiful people are jealous of her cos there much prettier & cant see how playboy chose Traci over them

To be honest i can't see why Playboy chose Traci Brooks over the Beautiful people

probably the size of her rack has something to do with it

The beautiful people are 10 a penny, I'm not real Traci Brooks fan but at least shes different to the lookalikes

it should be a beautiful people with all the members this would make sense
