#1 Tasha Steelz & Kiera Hogan (Knockouts Tag Team Title Tournament)
The first tag team to really put emphasis on the return of the Knockouts Tag Team Titles was Tasha Steelz and Kiera Hogan. The two ladies have been aligned since Steelz signed with iMPACT Wrestling. They got involved quickly in a feud with Havok and Nevaeh that they came out victorious in.
Tasha Steelz has been one of the fastest rising Knockouts in the promotion since coming in May of 2020. She also been a star on the East Coast independent scene including becoming the Battle Club Pro Icons Champion. Kiera Hogan has gradually improved from the start of her time in iMPACT Wrestling in 2017. Although she has not always had the best luck with friends in Impact, Kiera and Tasha have bonded quickly.
Hogan and Steelz have caused friction with many of the teams in the division prior to the Knockouts Tag Team Title Tournament and have experience ahead of the start. They came out with the win over the Sea Stars in the first round, but will have to face even fiercer competition in the rounds ahead.
With former Knockouts Champions and legends to come, Kiera and Tasha will have to dig deep to overcome their opponents. However, they have showed in their short time together that they will do whatever is necessary to pull out the victory. This is why they have to be considered the favorites to win the Knockouts Tag Team Title Tournament and become the new champions.
