On the October 1, 2009, episode of Total Nonstop Action Wrestling's Impact!, Von Erich debuted as a heel (villainous character), by aligning herself with the Beautiful People of Velvet Sky and Madison Rayne and attacking the TNA Knockout Tag Team Champions, Taylor Wilde and Sarita.[10] On the October 15 edition of Impact! she made her in-ring debut teaming with Sky and Rayne in a six knockout tag team match, where they defeated the team of Awesome Kong, ODB and Tara.[11] Two weeks later on Impact! she once again teamed with Sky and Rayne in a six knockout tag team match, where they defeated ODB, Christy Hemme and Hamada, when Von Erich pinned Hemme after a chokeslam, scoring her first victory in TNA.[12] On November 5, she started carrying a pink nightstick with her to the ring, dubbed "Lacey's Ugly Stick".
