kelani has been a tweener since they named her team TNA captain but it wasn't marked as such on here.
imo this is a heel turn but she at least needs to be tweener for now, see where it goes.

  @smah Honestly Agreed kelani did this out of nowhere there has to be a reason so until we get more information about why kelani attacked Jordynne with the TNA knockouts title Kelani is indeed a tweener

I like that "Lower Card" talents are getting titles. (I.E, Tatum and Dragon Lee) That is definitely not a knock on them by any means. In fact, I absolutely love it! It's like the ruthless aggression era where they are experimenting. And it's my favorite era.

For the TNA Roster, John Skylar, Jason Hotch and Tasha Steelz are all Heel again. As they are all back with Mustafa Ali, and Matt Cardona isn't a Tweener no more, he's a babyface now!
