She announces herself as the fifth member of Team Beautiful People, Shaw, Evans, and Purrazzo. No one else can be the greatest who beat the greatest. Then out comes Hardcore Country.

Mickie says by the looks of it, she doesn't have to remind Tasha who she is or what she's done. All she can really say is, "Hardcore country is back." She makes it official that she's joining of Team Trinity, Gail, Grace, and Kong. Mickie dubs themselves "Team Over." She says next week will be the greatest fight in Knockouts history.
