The Latin American Xchange, LAX

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

I really like LAX (even with Salinas gone).
Their gimmick reminds me a lot of the nWo and DX heydays.
And it is SO much better than the " Mexicools".
The Latin American Xchange (The Latin American Exchange, The Latin American X-Change or my favorite, The LAX) is a Hispanic professional wrestling tag team in TNA Wrestling, consisting of Homicide and Hernandez.
Their original gimmick denounced the repression of ethnic minorities by the NWA Championship Committee and TNA Management.
They were supposed to be street thugs, and they did it so well!
After they turned face, the group continued to stand as proud street Latin Americans, but dropped its militant focus.

TNA Knockouts: The Beautiful People

Angelina Love, Velvet Sky

The Beautiful People is a professional wrestling female tag team consisting of Angelina Love and Velvet Sky.
They have been joined by their associate "the Fashionist" Cute Kip. (The ghost of Billy and Chuck is never far away is it?)
The Beautiful People's gimmick is that they are far more talented and beautiful than anyone else on the TNA Roster.
They actually started out in TNA as faces, coming to the aid of Gail Kim in a couple of matches.
But when Roxxi Laveaux turned down their offer for beauty tips, they attacked her and started their heel turn.
The two of them later started placing brown paper bags over their opponents' heads, and began harrassing backstage interviewer Lauren Brooke.

Lexxus is an American female pro wrestler, who is currently working for TNA Wrestling using the name Mercedes Steele. Outside of TNA with Chaotic Wrestling and New England Championship Wrestling, she wrestles as Lexxus. I guess she really likes car names.

In Chaotic Wrestling, Lexxus was the third member of The Blowout Boys along with Danny E. and Tommy T. She was referred to as the "Double X Diva". Her most memorable matches involved feuding with Nikki Roxx.

In World Women's Wrestling, Lexxus won the WWW Championship in a four way match, defeating then champion Tanya Lee, Natalia and Jana on August 12, 2007.

On September 18, 2008, it was revealed that Lexxus signed a contract for TNA Wrestling. She was recommended for the position by TNA Knockout Roxxi, the same Roxxi she used to feud with in Chaotic Wrestling.
Mercedes Steele's first televised match was against Awesome Kong on the September 25, 2008 edition of TNA Impact!, where she, lost to Kong.
