The January 15 episode of TNA Wrestling featured a significant debut as the company looks to bolster its authority structure. Santino Marella addressed the audience, admitting he has been distracted lately due to personal family issues involving his daughter siding with Stacks. He revealed that TNA management instructed him to accept help in running the show, an idea he initially disliked until he learned who would be providing it.
Daria Rae, formerly known as WWE Superstar Sonya Deville, was introduced as Marella’s new assistant to initial cheers from the live crowd. The mood quickly changed as Rae turned the tables on Marella, declaring that TNA Wrestling does not need him. As fans began to boo, she tore down the former authority figure and warned him to “stay the hell out of my way”.
Rae re-introduced herself under the moniker “The Suit” and demanded the audience “shut up when I’m talking”. This transition marks a return to an authority role for the performer, having previously served as a General Manager in WWE.
