Decay was a professional wrestling tag team in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).

They made their debut on January 26, 2016 as the trio of Abyss, Crazzy Steve and Rosemary.[5] As members of the stable, Abyss and Crazzy Steve won the TNA World Tag Team Championship, while Rosemary won the TNA Knockouts Championship. In early 2021, Decay reunited as a duo without Abyss who had left the company, adding Black Taurus to the group on February 9 of that year, and Havok on July 15. Rosemary and Havok would go on to win the Impact Knockouts Tag Team Championship along with Taya Valkyrie as The Death Dollz.

History

Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (2016–2017)

Formation (2016)

On the January 18, 2016 episode of Impact Wrestling, Crazzy Steve and Abyss attacked TNA World Tag Team Champions The Wolves during a backstage promo. The next week on January 26, Rosemary would make her presence known leading to a match between Abyss, Crazzy Steve and The Wolves. The match would end in a disqualification as the trio continued to assault The Wolves and steal their titles, thus forming a new stable called Decay.[6][7] On the February 2 episode of Impact Wrestling, Decay with Eric Young and Bram defeated The Wolves and Beer Money in a Hardcore War match. On the February 9 episode of Impact Wrestling, Decay were defeated by Beer Money by disqualification. On the March 16 episode of Impact Wrestling, Decay challenged The Wolves in a Monster's Ball match for TNA World Tag Team Championships in a losing effort.[8][9] On the Maximum Impact 8 tour, Decay would be confronted by Jimmy Havoc, who implied a past relationship with Rosemary and attempted to get her back.[10][11] Abyss would go on to defeat Havoc in a No Disqualification match on the March 1 episode of Impact Wrestling.

The first two male members of the group Abyss and Crazzy Steve.

World Tag Team Champions (2016–2017)

On the April 12, Decay challenged Beer Money for the TNA World Tag Team Championships, in a match also involving Eric Young and Bram and The BroMans, in a losing effort. At Sacrifice, Decay defeated Beer Money in a Valley of Shadow match to win the TNA World Tag Team Championships after coercing Beer Money into a match by kidnapping Gail Kim. On the May 10 episode of Impact Wrestling, Decay successfully retained their titles against Jeff Hardy and James Storm. On the May 31 episode of Impact Wrestling, Decay were defeated by Drew Galloway in a handicap match. Decay would retain their titles against The BroMans at Slammiversary. On the Impact Gold Rush special episode, Decay retained their titles against The BroMans, Grado and Mahabali Shera and The Tribunal in a four-way match. After being defeated by The BroMans and Raquel on the July 5 episode of Impact, they successfully retained their titles against The BroMans in a Monster's Ball match on the July 28 episode of Impact Wrestling. In July, Rosemary started a relationship with Bram, attempting to court him into joining The Decay. Eventually, Rosemary would turn on Bram and have Crazzy Steve and Abyss attack and abduct Bram.

After "Broken" Matt Hardy and Brother Nero won a tag-team number one contenders match for the TNA World Tag Team Championship against Decay at Bound for Glory, Decay would go on to declare their intention of taking Matt Hardy's son, King Maxel from his family. On the September 1 episode of Impact Wrestling, Decay received an invitation from the Broken Hardys, to go to the Hardy Compound for a plotted brawl dubbed, "Delete or Decay." At Bound for Glory, Decay lost the titles against The Hardys. Decay would have their rematch the following episode of Impact Wrestling taking on the Hardys in a "Wolf Creek cage match," in a losing effort.

On the October 27 episode of Impact Wrestling, Decay took part at Team X Gold, but were defeated by "Go for Broke" (DJZ, Mandrews and Braxton Sutter). The following week, they were defeated once again by Go for Broke in a match who also included The Helms Dynasty (Trevor Lee and Andrew Everett) and Marshe Rockett. On the November 24 episode of Impact Wrestling, they were defeated by Go for Broke in a match who also included The Helms Dynasty and Marshe Rockett in three corners elimination match, and lose the Team X Gold.
