Formation (2014–present)
In March 2014, Knux started a new storyline where he returns to his flood-ravaged hometown with his father's carnival having been ruined and the relationship with his father soured because Knux has no intention to follow his father's footsteps and to own the family operated carnival, as well as salvaging it.[1] The following month, Knux debuted his new stable called The Menagerie, composed of himself, Rebel, Crazzy Steve and The Freak.[2][3] On the May 8th episode of Impact Wrestling, The Menagerie made their televised debut with Knux defeating Kazarian in Knux's return match. The following week, Crazzy Steve fought Kazarian to a no contest after Steve pants'd the referee in his in-ring debut. On June 15, 2014, at Slammiversary XII, Crazzy Steve took part in a 6 way Ladder match for the TNA X Division Championship which was won by Sanada.[4] On the July 3, episode of Impact Wrestling, The Menagerie (Knux and The Freak) unsuccessfully challenged The Wolves in a three way tag team match for the TNA World Tag Team Championships The BroMans (Jessie Godderz and DJ Z) were also included in the match.[5]
On the September 10, episode of Impact Wrestling The BroMans (Jessie Godderz and Robbie E) teamed with Velvet Sky defeating The Menagerie (Knux, Crazzy Steve and Rebel).[6] On the September 17, episode of Impact Wrestling during a Knockouts Battle Royal, Rebel legitimately fractured her arm when she landed on the steel steps when Havok knocked her over the top rope.[7][8] On the September 24 edition of Impact Wrestling, Knux took part in the Gold Rush tournament for a potential title opportunity facing Austin Aries in a losing effort. Rebel made her in-ring return teaming with Crazzy Steve and Knux on the October 15 episode of Impact Wrestling, defeating Angelina Love and The BroMans (Jessie Godderz and DJ Z).[9]
