Rhysrob Posted July 22, 2022 Author Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) QAW 2020 POWER RANKINGS -- TOP 10 #7 Hellcat Hernandez "Her raw aggression makes her a wild opponent!" 2020 Win-Loss: 7-6 Average / best / worst match: 47 / 59 / 33 Age: 31 Experience: 12 years Nationality: Mexican Style: Brawler Signature Moves: Package Piledriver Running Bulldog Career Highlights: 3 x QAW Shockwave Champion Tied most Shockwave reigns 2 x QAW World Tag Team Champion 1 x QAW Trios Cup Inaugural Trios Cup Winner Notable relationships: Pamela Rojo [former tag partner-now-rival] Juana Hurricane [rival] Alexis Lee Littlefeather [rival] Alina America [Feud] Leader of The Clenched Fist [alliance] Rosa "Hellcat" Hernandez is a luchadora who is known for her tattoos - with 33 at the time of writing, they cover a lot of her arms, chest, and legs. She learned her craft in Mexico but got her first big break north of the border when she was hired by the QAW. A natural rudo (although strangely she was a tecnico for the first eight years of her QAW run), her raw aggression makes her a wild opponent. She formed a great team with Pamela Rojo, former QAW tag team champions 'The Anti-Establishment', although that team ended when Hellcat brutally turned on her partner following a loss. In addition to her QAW work, since 2018 she has also been working as part of the CILL women's division and doing very well for herself... American Lucha Date: Fri W3 Mar 2020 The Clenched Fist vs Storm Front feud was heating up in late 2019. Things reached a boiling point when Juana distracted Hellcat during a Shockwave title defence at Three Way Dance which Hellcat pin points for losing the match [and title to Little Miss Perfect]. So, Hellcat was out for revenge and challenged Juana Hurricane's second in command to a strap match... Strap Match: Hellcat Hernandez v Alexis Lee Littlefeather As the referee secured the strap onto Alexis’ wrist she looked apprehensive as though she knew she was walking into a trap. This was contrasted with Hellcat grinning wickedly. The match started with a tug-of-war and Hellcat gained the upper hand, but as she pulled for a final time Alexis released her grip sending Hellcat flying backwards into the turnbuckle. An embarrassed Hellcat got back to her feet and cut Alexis off at her 2nd turnbuckle tap and pulled her into the centre of the ring. Although the objective of the match was to consecutively touch each turnbuckle the match resembled a bar fight; Alexis hit a short arm clothesline which allowed her to hit three turnbuckles before Hellcat recovered and whipped Alexis’ legs from behind with the strap stopping her completely. The crowd rallied behind Alexis as she attempted to pull herself towards the last turnbuckle but Hellcat dragged her out of the ring and the referee reset the count. Hellcat went to work on Alexis around the ringside area and whipped her relentlessly until Alexis’ back was red raw. The crowd cheered Alexis on but were rendered silent when Hellcat hit her trademark running bulldog crashing Alexis down with a dull thud. Hellcat gloated and rolled Alexis back in the ring and made a show of hitting each turnbuckle, but as she sauntered towards the final one she was pulled back by Alexis, who had flung the strap over her shoulder, and was hauled Hellcat away eventually causing her to slip. Alexis took the opportunity to repay the lashes, with interest. But suddenly, Black Diamond appeared and argued with the referee; Felicia Luck also appeared and hit Alexis from behind disrupting the momentum she was building. Hellcat recovered and dismissed Black Diamond who dutifully disappeared allowing the referee to return to the action. In a sadistic move Hellcat hit Alexis with a bone crunching package piledriver in the middle of the ring, wrapped the strap around her neck and then dragged her opponent, clearly struggling to breathe, behind her as she hit each turnbuckle for the victory. Winner: Hellcat Hernandez via stoppage in 14:05 [47] Hellcat scares the referee out of the ring and starts barking orders to Black Diamond and Felicia Luck, as Alexis gasps for air. Black Diamond frees Hellcat from the strap and Felicia climbs the top rope. Hellcat then sets up Alexis for another package piledriver but this time Felicia jumps from the top rope adding her force to the move and Alexis is crunched into the mat with such force that she almost bounces out of Hellcat's grip [35] Fesketh: Folks we have to apologise for what you just witnessed! I think the crowd are on the edge of jumping in the ring themselves! Garcia: So this was Hellcat’s grand plan?! Take out Juana and Sonnaz backstage to break Alexis’ neck? To what end? Hesketh: That piledriver was aimed at Juana Hurricane and Juana alone. Hellcat may be ruthless and she is also smart, she’s just declared all out war on Storm Front and already has them severely weakened. Garcia: There will surely be consequences from this assault, we know that Commissioner Bomb doesn’t appreciate the wrestlers getting too badly damaged… Hesketh: Viewers as you can see Alexis is being stretchered from the ringside area. We wish her all the best and we’ll keep you updated on her condition. The Showdown Date: Fri W3 June 2020 There was no doubt Hellcat's actions angered Juana; to the point where Juana eliminated herself from the Battlebowl to pursue Hellcat. This set up their showdown at... The Showdown! First Blood Match: Juana Hurricane [storm Front] vs. Hellcat Hernandez [Clenched Fist] Hellcat made her entrance wearing a face shield, which served as good strategy and way to antagonise Juana, which it did, and Juana clashed with Hellcat in the aisle way. The referee threw caution to the wind and started the match knowing it wasn’t going to be rule adhering anyway. Both women showed good intensity and Hellcat spent much of her time trying to create separation from Juana who was like a woman possessed scratching and clawing at her, eventually ripping the face shield away and using it as a weapon to batter Hellcat. After several minutes brawling around ringside it was clear Juana had the advantage, which of course triggered Clenched Fist members Black Diamond and Felicia Luck to come out and help their leader. The 3 on 1 mauling only lasted a few moments as Storm Front members Sonnaz Shah and, the returning Alexis Lee Littlefeather [neck brace and all], charged out to even the odds. During the commotion Hellcat and Juana returned to the ring with Hellcat holding the advantage raining down sharp elbow strikes to Juana’s forehead. When she was satisfied enough damage had been done, Hellcat foolishly took to taunting the crowd and made a display of placing on brass knuckles. As she returned to the match Juana was back on her feet and easily ducked a wild swing and retaliated with an uncharacteristic headbutt. From there, Juana smashed Hellcat's forehead into each turnbuckle, reminiscent of a strap match, and on the last one mounted the 2nd turnbuckle and counted 10 punches along with the crowd. Juana played to the crowd a fraction to long and Hellcat regained control by catching Juana in a power bomb position and performed a buckle bomb, followed by a running bulldog out of the corner. The crowd was concerned for Juana as she lay face down as Hellcat wrenched her neck back and delivered rough looking cross-faces. Fortunately for Juana, Hellcat became concerned with finding the brass knuckles and stopped her attack to pick them up. As Juana stirred to her knees, Hellcat grabbed Juana by the hair but got caught with a slick judo throw. Before Hellcat could react she was locked in a figure 4 around the neck. After a few moments struggling Juana wrested the brass knuckles away and used them herself to land a couple of strikes to Hellcat, which effectively knocked her out. Juana released the hold as the referee checked on Hellcat and after a moment the cameras caught a trickle of blood coming down Hellcat's forehead. Winner: Juana Hurricane via first blood in 13:48 [35] Juana's hand is raised in victory; and it's noticed by commentary that she has a bloodied nose, which prompts them to wonder if that had been caused by the bulldog but Juana was able to disguise it. The remaining members of Storm Front celebrate with their leader. Sonnaz has a microphone in hand as Juana picks Hellcat up and holds her before Alexis, who gives a thumbs down signal, and suddenly Juana has Hellcat back on the mat again and is applying a modified 'Tequila Sunrise' [Hammerlock with the leg and cloverleaf hold]. “Say you're sorry to Alexis…” says Sonnaz, holding the mic towards Hellcat. “**** you!” Screams a bloodied Hellcat, which prompts Juana to wrench harder. “We can wait all day” Sonnaz replies calmly, as Juana wrenches again and again. “I-I-...I’m sorry—stop! Sorry!” Hellcat cries out. With a nod from Alexis, Juana releases the hold and the Storm Front members raise their arms in victory. A clear message to the entire locker room that they are not to be messed with going forward. [20] Capital Clash Date: Fri W4 Sep 2020 Hellcat lost the feud to Juana, but during this time she was also touring with 5SSW with great success; which spawned the genesis of The Clenched Fist rising in that promotion. Perhaps spurred by this, Hellcat set her sights on the main event and targeted "The Face of QAW" Alina America... Alina America vs. Hellcat Hernandez [Clenched Fist] At the sound of the bell Alina flew across the ring and peppered Hellcat with strikes giving her a receipt [and then some] for the sneak attack last month. No stranger to a fight Hellcat covered up, took Alina down to the mat and started laying in hard shots of her own. Realising she was in Hellcat’s wheelhouse Alina started grappling but to her surprise [and everyone watching] Hellcat kept up going hold for hold. The crowd started to come alive for the match as Hellcat busted out some flashy high flying moves as well, demonstrating she was evenly matched and commentary noted this was a coming out party for Hellcat. Towards the end of the match Hellcat headbutted Alina square in the nose, ran the ropes and nailed Alina with her signature running bulldog for a 2.5 count which had the crowd on their feet. Hellcat looked at the ref in disbelief and dragged Alina up onto the turnbuckle with evil intent looking for a superplex, but Alina scored a jab to the side that caused Hellcat's foot to slip and she fell to the mat awkwardly. Sensing her chance Alina repositioned herself and landed a split legged moonsault for the 1, 2… 3! Winner: Alina America via pin in 14:19 [52] The match got the crowd hotter and the show off to a strong start Alina's hand is raised in victory and she gestures to the camera she's coming for the title. The crowd are hot for the former champion but the cheers turn to boos as Hellcat attacks Alina from behind and drags her around the ring by the hair laying in forearms and boots. The attack is fast and furious ending with Hellcat nailing the package piledriver in the centre of the ring leaving Alina out cold. [48] Garcia: It looks like Hellcat didn't learn her lesson from Juana Hurricane afterall! Hesketh: Old habits die hard Alfonso! The world Hellcat comes from doesn't have room for much else; if only she could channel that energy into her in-ring game and we'd have a world title contender on our hands. She proved tonight she has the potential! Night of Champions 2020 Date: Fri W3 Dec 2020 To the surprise of many Hellcat held the upper hand over Alina for months; pinning Alina in the finals of the Trios Cup and in a World Summit. This allowed her to finish the year strong with a QAW World Championship match against Emma May... QAW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 'World Class' Emma May © vs. Hellcat Hernandez The referee called for the bell as Emma May charged the ring and took the fight to Hellcat who was more than ready to brawl. Commentary noted this was something Hellcat was likely trying to encourage as Emma was outperformed by Hellcat during the first half of the match. As things progressed Emma changed tactics by creating distance and grappling with Hellcat, which almost paid off with a submission several times. During the closing minutes Emma overshot a back suplex and dumped Hellcat on the back of her head-- the referee checked on Hellcat who needed a moment before continuing and the audio picked up angry swearing from Hellcat. Blood was in the water now and when the referee signaled to continue Emma shot in for the takedown and soon had Hellcat in a rear naked choke. The referee pleaded with Hellcat to submit but instead Hellcat flipped Emma off before passing out. Winner: Emma May via stoppage in 15:10 [4th defence] [48] Starshow 2021 Date: Sat W3 Jan 2021 Despite being banged up from the match, Hellcat proved she was ready for the main event. She couldn't outrun Alina forever and the two finished their feud in a street fight... We cut to a pre-taped promo from Hellcat Hernandez... Hellcat: It's laughable that the "face" of QAW, Alina America, thinks she’s guiding young fans at home to stand up to “bullies”… Am I bullying you, Alina? Too bad! And to those young fans: a warning! After I’m done beating Alina, like the dog she is, you’re going to feel upset... You’ll probably be weak and want to go crying to your mamas... And I promise you she is going to be disappointed having such weak, pathetic excuses for kids! So, let me give you some advice: you have a choice to be the prey or become the predator. Alina America is prey and I’m the predator! Pick wisely. [42] Who will Hellcat target next as she claws her way to the top?

Rhysrob Posted July 23, 2022 Author Share Posted July 23, 2022 (edited) QAW 2020 POWER RANKINGS -- TOP 10 #6 Lily Snyder & Ava Anderson "The Experience" "Hands down one of the best tag teams in history!" 2020 Win-Loss: 10-3 Average / best / worst match: 51 / 60 / 37 Age: Lily: 30, Ava: 31 Experience: Lily: 13 years, Ava: 10 years Nationality: Both are American Style: Lily: Technician, Ava: Wrestler Signature Moves: Rock'n'Roll - Super kick into bridging german Cut-throat suplex - Saito suplex [Lily] Thunderous kick - Shotgun dropkick [Ava] Career Highlights: 4 x QAW World Tag Team Champions Most QAW World Tag Team reigns 1 x QAW Trios Cup Inaugural QAW Trios Cup winners Tag match of the year 2020 Notable relationships: Bossman Brayfield [manager] Members of The Clenched Fist [alliance] Las Amazonas [fued] Lilly & Rose [fued] Lily Snyder is a technical wrestler from South Dakota who is well known for her tag team work alongside Ava Anderson, a great duo who have a reputation for being one of the best female tag teams in history. Turning pro in 2011, Snyder quickly established herself as one of the rising stars of women's wrestling with a series of solid performances on the independent circuit. This did not go unnoticed by QAW, who signed her in 2014 and teamed her up with Anderson. Fantastic together, they are known for their slick teamwork and for the fact that they seem to have an almost telepathic ability to know what the other is thinking... Ava Anderson (Ellen Handry) is a versatile performer from Florida who is best known as a tag team wrestler, regularly teaming with Lily Snyder - they're a highly regarded duo who are quickly becoming one of the greatest female tag teams ever. Making her pro debut in 2010, Anderson built a reputation for herself on the independent circuit as a quality competitor with a strong strike-based arsenal of attacks. This led to her getting on the radar of QAW, who signed her in 2014, and the genesis of her team with Snyder... QAW Starshow 2020 Date: Fri W3 Jan 2020 The Experience entered 2020 after a rock finish to 2019 losing their QAW World Tag titles in a major upset against The Rage [thanks to assistance from Emma May]. However, iron sharpens iron and their ongoing feud with newcomers Las Amazonas they were able to quickly work themselves back into contention at Starshow 2020... QAW World Tag Team Championship: The Rage [Honey Badger & Marie Punnen] © vs The Experience [Lily Synder & Ava Anderson] vs The San Diego Girls [izzy Quick & Coco Malloy vs Las Amazonas [Mariana Tores & Pinky Perez] Next was a fatal 4-way for the tag titles. The Rage surprised the world when they captured the titles from The Experience in September, which many put down to The Experience being weakened after their war against Las Amazonas over the summer and accepted the match without thinking. The new champs have proven themselves to be fighting champions having successfully defended the titles twice since against local enhancement talents. This is their first real test against more established teams. The match was really a showcase for The Experience and Las Amazonas who set the standard for tag team wrestling in QAW in 2019 and all four had some excellent technical exchanges with multiple counters demonstrating that they were all very familiar with each other, but The Rage were on hand to disrupt the sequences before they got too good, which aggravated the crowd towards them. The San Diego Girls played their part well and got some flashy spots in against the Experience but were never able to keep momentum going long enough to make a real impact. The final moments of the match saw Izzy Quick Moonsault from the top rope to the outside wiping out Las Amazonas, Honey Badger, and her own partner Coco. This allowed Lily to make a blind tag on Ava as she hit the ropes towards Marie Punnen ducking a spinning heel kick and launched through the ropes into the remaining competitors who just picked themselves up after Quick’s moonsault. Lily hit a bewildered Marie with a Cut-Throat Saito Suplex folding the kick boxer in half and claimed the titles. Winners: AND NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! Lily Snyder & Ava Anderson 'The Experience' via pinfall in 13:31 [37] Brayfield: YEEEEE-HAAWWWW! That's what I'm talking about! Did you see that?! 4-time champions: The Experience! What did I tell you?! Garcia: You told us a wrong would be righted today! Brayfield: Exactly boy. Now let me make another bold prediction, The Experience will have the greatest tag team championship reign QAW has ever seen and I will ask Commissioner Bomb to source me the best the WORLD has to offer in terms of opponents because lets face it the teams here just aren't up to scratch! Now excuse me I have to go celebrate! Hesketh: I don't know about that, QAW has some excellent tag teams but I'm always keen to see new blood here... San Antonio Invasion Date: Fri W3 Feb 2020 The Experience started their first reign hot immediately defending their belts against two of QAWs greatest: Alina America & Danielle Sweetheart... QAW World Tag Team Championship: Alina America & Danielle Sweetheart vs The Experience [Lily Snyder & Ava Anderson]© The two teams didn’t quite see eye to eye ideologically but had no real qualm with one another so the start of the match began with some classic tag team wrestling and each pairing got a chance to face off with one another and show off their technical prowess smoothly transitioning from hold to hold and displaying innovative counters. Whatever tension Danielle and Alina had earlier appeared to have been squashed and were gelling as a team. The Experience lived up to their namesake and their proficiency at tag wrestling began to creep them in front as they were noticeably tagging more frequently and scoring more double teams. At the halfway point Ava reverse irish whipped Alina into one of the free corners with the intention of following up with a corner splash. A split second before Alina hit the corner she used the ropes to hoist her body into the air causing the pursuing Ava to crash into the turnbuckle with nobody home. The normally nimble champion came back down to the mat just behind Ava but on landing her knee appeared to give out. The referee checked on Alina who attempted to brush it off but it was too late and The Experience now had a target as Ava came out the corner with a chop block to the back of the knee and The Experience went to work. The match was now reminiscent of last month’s main event as Alina found herself on defence again but unlike Emma May The Experience opted to work the knee through impact moves, even body slamming Alina legs first into the ropes on numerous occasions. It was clear Alina was being worn down and Danielle did a masterful job working the crowd to urge Alina on for the hot tag. The Experience did their part cutting off the ring and keeping the pressure on Alina but even the best make mistakes and that’s what happened. Ava spent just a little too long playing to the crowd whilst setting Alina up for a suplex giving Alina time to catch her breath and hit a desperation chin breaker leaving both women crumpled next to each other. They began the slow crawl to their respective corners for the tag and Danielle came in hot with drops kick to Lily (now legal) and battered Lily with snap suplexes, backdrops and a flying headscissors to the delight of the crowd. Alina having had a few minutes now to recover, perhaps unwisely, called for the tag which Danielle reluctantly agreed to. This led into the final moments of the match as Ava pulled Danielle off the ring apron and began brawling with her promptly drawing the referees attention. Out of nowhere Emma May slid into the ring and clocked Alina with the World Title in the back of the head with such force it sent her to the outside. Emma ducked out the ring and took cover as Lily Snyder alerted the referee to make the 10 count. “1, 2, 3, 4, 5…!” As Danielle realised what was happening she tried to assist but Ava had a vice like grip around one of her legs and was unable to pull herself away. “6, 7, 8, 9…!” Alina got to her feet with a glassy eyed expression. As the count reached 9 she appeared to be on the cusp of heaving herself back into the ring but instead clutched the back of her head again having a visible dizzy spell and she slumped to the ground. “10! Ring the bell!” Winners: The Experience [Defences: 1] via Count-Out in 17:35 [48] Battlebowl 2020 Date: Fri W3 May 2020 The Experience scored another title defence against Storm Front, had a successful tour with 5SSW and defeated the 5SSW World Tag Champions at Battlebowl. During this time a number 1 contenders tournament was taking place, and The Experience took an interest in the finals, so much so that they interfered in the main event, and accidentally gave Las Amazonas the win... The Experience vs. The Storm Dragons Critics would later describe this match as a revelation as it far surpassed everyone’s expectations. The build up to the match was around The Experience being disappointed in the quality of the newly crowned champions and given the choice wouldn’t bother with them. The Experience are arguably one of the best tag teams in the game right now and they were out to show their Joshi guests what QAW was about. The crowd was fairly familiar with Mushashibo’s run in Canada and was sold on Iijima’s martial arts gimmick, and to their credit The Storm Dragons had their working boots on and hung in there. In Japan their only crime would be being relatively unexciting compared to other teams whereas in QAW, in a relatively shallow tag division, they came across very well. Despite this, the ending was never really in doubt which prevented it from going to another level and Ava Anderson put Kinuye away with a ‘Thunderous Kick’ [Running single-leg drop kick] in just under 15 minutes. Winners: The Experience def. The Storm Dragons via pinfall in 14:34 [51] The match got the crowd hotter. Amazons Attack Tour Night#3 Date: Wed W3 Aug 2020 The Experience were bested for the titles by Las Amazonas and they quickly entered a feud with a vengeful Lilly & Rose. Where things began to escalate into a three-way feud for the QAW World Tag Team Championships... Brayfield clambers into the ring to raise his clients hands in victory and is yelling about the tag team championships when they are interrupted by... Lilly & Rose: Kate Lilly & Debbie Rose Lilly & Rose play to the crowd and make their way to the ring with mics to stand face to face with Lily & Ava] Rose: Lily, Ava, congratulations on your win tonight! It’s great to see that losing the titles hasn’t completely derailed you both! Brayfield: Ah’ll take this [brayfield takes Debbie’s mic]… Now, thanks for the compliment but y’all need to cut the crap with my clients and get straight to whatever point y’all out here to make. Lilly: We just wanted to introduce ourselves properly as your clients seem to be ducking us backstage! They haven’t shaken hands with us or strung two words together in our direction, hell, not even a complimentary fruit basket! So, seeing as you’re acting brand new, I’m Kate Lilly, this is Debbie Rose, and we’re the greatest tag team in the game. Period. Brayfield: Watch out there miss y’all gonna break ya arm tryin’ to pat ya own back! Lilly: We came to QAW to continue our legacy, in fact, we came here to take the tag team championships from you. So, we fought our way to the finals of the tag team tournament and then you, Ava, stuck your nose in and cost us the match-- Brayfield: – If y’all had the match under control then y’all would have won the damn thing before we ever felt the need to get involved, and Ava wasn't even aimin' for y'all so for the last time, what is your point? Lilly: Our point is we owe you a receipt! We’re the best tag team in the world, don’t you want to see how you measure up? Brayfield: Dang ah must’ve blinked and missed when y’all claimed the mantle of bein’ the best tag team in the world 'cuz y’all were surpassed a long, long time ago darlin'... But, ah’m no fool; y’all may be relics but defeatin' y’all would be an achievement nonetheless so we’ll see y'all at Amazon Attack! [33] Brayfield helped the promo Night of Champions 2020 Date: Fri W3 Dec 2020 The Experience struggled against the increase in competition in the tag division but they still finished the year strong; which many say is down to benefiting from the momentum their leader Hellcat Hernandez had. They won a World Summit match against Lilly & Rose and won the first Trios Cup [also eliminating Lilly & Rose, and Pinky Perez]. This earned them a shot at the belts at the final show of the year... W/ Las Amazonas [Mariana Torres & Pinky Perez] © vs. The Experience [Ava Anderson & Lily Snyder] w/ Bossman Brayfield Both teams put on the best tag team matches in QAW history to date with great callbacks to their previous encounters. The cohesion of The Experience neatly clashed against the miscommunications between Las Amazonas-- despite their efforts to reconcile there was still underlying tension. The crowd groaned in disapproval when Mariana got hit by the 'Rock'n'Roll' double team [super kick into a bridging German]. As Ava made the cover Pinky was already in to break it up. The referee admonished Pinky as she dragged Mariana over to their corner, tagged herself in, and hit Ava with everything she had culminating in a 'Butterfly Bomb' [Double underhook powerbomb]. Commentary discussed the abrupt finish and both agreed Pinky had shone over Mariana. Winners: Las Amazonas via pin in 22:48 [4th defence] [60] Pinky carried the match How will The Experience rebound in 2020 with Lilly & Rose and Las Amazonas staking their claim to the tag division?

Rhysrob Posted July 30, 2022 Author Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) QAW 2020 POWER RANKINGS -- TOP 10 #5 Kate Lilly & Debbie Rose "Lilly & Rose" "Before joining QAW this tag team was the most in demand talent on the independent scene!" 2020 Win-Loss: 4 - 5 Average / best / worst match: 51 / 57 / 40 Age: Kate: 32, Debbie: 33 Experience: Kate: 14 years, Debbie: 15 years Nationality: Kate: Canadian, Debbie: American Style: Both are High Flyers Signature Moves: The Thorn -- Double team impaler DDT Thorn Cutter -- Cutter [Debbie] Lilly Launch Pad -- Molly-go-round [Kate] Career Highlights: 1 x QAW World Tag Team Champions 4 x AAA World Tag Team Champions AAA Hall of Fame Members 1 x KFW Big Gold Belt [Debbie] Notable relationships: Fallen Angels [alliance] Las Amazonas [fued] The Experience [fued] Kate Lilly is one half of the "Lilly & Rose" tag team, her partner being the American Debbie Rose. Lilly is a good high flying wrestler and in most people's eyes is the flashier, more charismatic of the two, and therefore the one more likely to succeed in the business. In 2007 the two partners were signed by AAA to continue the tag team work they'd been working hard to perfect on the independent scene. They went on to become one of the best duos in the company's history, winning the tag team straps on four occasions. They have stuck together post-AAA, making them one of the longest-running duos in women's wrestling history, and are one of the most in-demand acts on the independent scene... Debbie Rose is best known for her "Lilly & Rose" tag team pairing with the Canadian wrestler Kate Lilly. A solid cruiserweight rather than a flashy one, Rose seems to have the right balance between good wrestling skills and exciting high flying action. She was trained by one of the best female workers in the US, Belle "Wanda Fish" Bryden, and a lot of her mentor's mannerisms and style can be seen in Rose's work. It was probably Bryden's influence that was behind AAA's decision to hire Lilly & Rose in 2007. The duo went on to win the AAA Tag Team titles four times and firmly establish themselves as one of the premier female tag teams in North America... American Lucha Date: Fri W3 Mar 2020 The legendary tag team burst into QAW in February 2020 in the tag team number 1 contenders tournament. They breezed through the opening round and found themselves against Ronin3's tag team in the semis... w/ Lilly & Rose v Payback Inc. w/Vinny Cruz The semi-finals of the Tag Team Tournament kicked off with a great match that almost represented a AAA v QAW clash with Lilly & Rose representing the past AAA promotion and Payback [or Ronin3] being a symbol of QAW, albeit begrudgingly. Ironically though it was Lilly & Rose who brought the high flying QAW style and kept the match fast hitting numerous arm drags, drop kicks and hurricanranas. This was countered with a grinding offence from Toni and Becca, who preferred a brawl, and were constantly seeking to corner an opponent and keep them there. Vinny Cruz looked to get involved several times and even placed Toni’s foot on the rope to break up what looked like a winning combination from Debbie Rose. Ultimately, the sheer experience of Lilly & Rose overwhelmed Payback who were unable to keep the advantage and Becca Barton fell prey to ‘The Thorn’ and the 3 count. Winners: Lilly & Rose via pinfall in 14:51 [52] Big City Breakdown Date: Fri W3 Apr 2020 For such a big name team Lilly & Rose managed to fly under the radar of the champions, The Experience, who were embroiled in a feud with Las Amazonas at the time. This played a factor in the finals of the tournament and ignited Lilly & Rose... Las Amazonas v Lilly & Rose The finals of the number one contender tournament culminated in a great match between two excellent teams. Lilly & Rose certainly held the edge in terms of experience together but Las Amazonas entered the QAW scene with an irrepressible energy catapulting them to the top of the division. Many expected the high flying teams to battle it out in the air, and for a time they did, treating the viewers to a highly athletic contest with lots of arm drags, drop kicks and fast paced chain wrestling with innovative roll up attempts. When it became clear neither side could gain a clear advantage Debbie Rose and Pinky Perez shook hands and engaged in a more mat based technical exchange. The crowd really appreciated the versatility in the ring and applauded both teams who seemed intent on keeping things civil, until Mariana took exception to almost being caught in a victory roll by Kate and shoved her to the ground. As the intensity and speed started picking up again the Champions appeared at ringside scouting the action and sensing an opportunity with the referee distracted Ava Anderson slid into the ring and accidentally caught Kate Lilly with the title belt instead of Pinky. Pinky seized the day and drop kicked Ava out of the ring, hopped up to the top rope and hit Kate with a Flog Splash and sealed Las Amazona’s victory. Winners: Las Amazonas def. Lilly & Rose via pinfall in 18:07 [50] Amazons Attack Date: Wed W3 Aug 2020 Las Amazonas went on to win the titles; Lilly & Rose did not forget The Experience though, but had to wait for them to return from Japan. They made their move though and challenged them to a match at Amazons Attack... w/ The Experience w/ Bossman Brayfield vs. Lilly & Rose In a change from tradition Brayfield decided to stay at ringside instead of providing guest commentary; despite calling Lilly & Rose a non-threat, it was clear he wanted his clients to win. The match started with feeling out sequences which demonstrated that both sides were evenly matched and commentary reminded viewers that this was a potential passing of the torch as Lilly & Rose were out to show they were still on top against their potential successors. As the match progressed the difference in styles became more pronounced as Lilly & Rose relied on high flying offence and The Experience went after the ground and pound, but they had cross over in the technical space and settled into a technically sound match. Brayfield was a constant presence on the outside encouraging his clients and attempting to bend the rules on their behalf, which surprisingly his clients seemed irritated by. This eventually proved to be their downfall as Brayfield was caught placing Ava’s foot on the rope by the referee which pulled their focus to him. As this happened Ava caught Kate in a small package and got the 3 but the referee wasn’t there to make the count. Debbie Rose took the opportunity to roll the small package into her partner’s favour and drop kicked Lily off the apron. The referee turned at this moment and caught the pin, giving the victory to Lilly & Rose. Winners: Lilly & Rose def. The Experience via roll up in 17:37 [51] Trios Tour Night#1 Date: Sat W2 Oct 2020 With their win over The Experience, Lilly & Rose earned a shot at Las Amazonas. Unfortunately, The Experience made their presence known again and helped the champions retain. Lilly & Rose considered this to be too much of a coincidence and confronted Las Amazonas... Dharma Gregg is standing by in the interview area with Pinky Perez and Mariana Torres... Dharma: QAW faithful, joining me at this time the world tag team champions, Las Amazonas! At Capital Clash you successfully defended the titles against Lilly & Rose with a little assistance from The Experience. After the match you seemed a little reluctant to prevent The Experience from attacking them further-- Pinky: – I’m going to stop you there. We are the tag team champions NOT hired security for other tag teams. We don’t condone what happened to Lilly & Rose-- but we’re not going to throw ourselves into an issue that doesn’t really involve us. Mariana: Pinky is right. When you’re the champions you have big enough targets on your backs without looking for trouble. Anyway, we helped in the end so what's the big deal? Kate Lilly & Debbie Rose appear to the surprise of the champions Kate: You sure did, eventually! Forgive us for eavesdropping but we were interested in what you had to say! Especially as you two keep seeming to benefit from The Experience interfering in our matches! Mariana: Are you implying we're working together?! Kate: Are you? Fool us once, shame on you. Fool us twice… I guess we should have seen it coming! Pinky: Pfft! That is ridiculous and frankly we don't have time to entertain this nonsense because we’re looking ahead to Triosmania! As we’re champions we have an entry, we just need a partner! Debbie: It’s funny you should mention that! We just proposed an idea to Commissioner Bomb which she really liked the sound of. At the next show, one of us will take on one of you, with your entry to Triosmania on the line. Try and get the job done on your own this time, eh? [Kate & Debbie exit] Pinky: Can they do that...? Bomb can't be serious! Mariana: Putas. [33] The segment got the crowd hotter Road to Starshow Tour Night#1 Date: Tue W2 Jan 2020 The three-way feud continued to escalate throughout Triosmania and World Summit. At one point, it seemed as if Lilly & Rose were content to work with Las Amazonas; but others argued they were a factor in causing friction between the champions. As time went on the frustration grew and by the end of the year the veterans were beginning to show a mean streak... We join Kate Lilly & Debbie Rose in the promo area… Lilly: When we arrived in QAW just under a year ago we thought our ascent would be instant. Instead, we got two thorns in our side: The Experience and Las Amazonas… Rose: The Experience, you've screwed us out of title matches. And Las Amazonas, we allowed ourselves to get caught up in your drama... Maybe we got complacent? Lilly: Maybe… But that ends now. We're tired of 'thorns' in our side-- In fact, thorns is a compliment. Roses have thorns! Rose: True. Lilly: The Experience, Las Amazonas... You are weeds... Annoying, unwelcome weeds in our backyard and it's time for us to rip you out root and stem. It's time for Lilly & Rose to flourish in QAW and remind the world who we are. So, at Starshow… Why don’t we settle it? [31] A solid promo that got the crowd hotter At Starshow Lilly & Rose captured the titles and showed their true colours joining Fallen Angels; what do they have in store for the tag division?

Rhysrob Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 (edited) QAW 2020 POWER RANKINGS -- TOP 10 #4 "Miracle Blonde" Suzanne Brazzle "It's a miracle!" 2020 Win-Loss: 7 - 1 Average / best / worst match: 49 / 56 / 36 Age: 42 Experience: 20 years Nationality: American Style: Entertainer Signature Moves: Miracle Connection -- Michinoku Driver Career Highlights: 1 x QAW World Champion 1 x AAA Femme Fatale 2 x AAA Top Contender 1 x KFW Tag Team Champion Notable relationships: Fallen Angels [alliance] Pamela Rojo [Former tag-now-rival] "Miracle Blonde" Suzanne Brazzle made her pro debut in 2000 and spent the next five and a half years building a good reputation for herself as one of the top independent female competitors around thanks to her crisp technical style and great work ethic. She was signed by the Angel Athletic Association in 2006, finally giving her a much-deserved first taste of fame, and she went on to be one of the big stars of the company's latter years, including a stint with the AAA Femme Fatale title. Brazzle is still active on the independent circuit post-AAA, but age is beginning to catch up with her... Amazons Attack Date: Wed W3 Aug 2020 Brazzle was introduced to QAW as an ally of Pamela Rojo, who was having a crisis of confidence. Both women were in similar phases of their career and seemingly had a pact to push each other... QAW interviewer Dharma Gregg enters the ring with a mic to catch a word from Pamela and Suzanne... Dharma: Pamela, Suzanne, congratulations on that hard fought victory over two very tough competitors. I just had to come to the ring though and ask the question; Suzanne, are you now part of QAW? Brazzle: Dharma, tonight is a special night because a miracle has happened, and Suzanne Brazzle is officially in QAW! I have been plugging away on the indy circuit and keeping tabs on this place and I was drawn to Pamela’s story. I know the hurt of working to the bone and not getting the recognition you deserve. I have watched the women of my generation go onto great things and I’ve watched the next generation follow in their footsteps… Meanwhile I got left behind or surpassed. I think Pamela and I share that story. Am I bitter about it? No! I’m here and I still have time to leave my mark. And I’m here to help Pamela make her mark too. Pamela: And I am by your side, Suzanne. I have made mistakes recently, specifically betraying my friendship with Alina America over the title; but I’m not going to let that define me. I have all the tools to succeed in QAW. I just needed a friend to remind me. [34] Capital Clash Date: Fri W4 Sep 2020 Brazzle and Rojo quickly made their mark and going into Triosmania built some solid momentum taking on Ronin3's leader: Foxxy Larue. At Triosmania Brazzle helped repair the relationship between Rojo & Alina America, and the 3 of them made it to the finals... w/ w/ 'Miracle Blonde' Suzanne Brazzle w/ Pamela Rojo vs 'The Ultimate Diva' Foxxy Larue [Ronin3] w/ Toni Parisi, Becca Barton & Vinny Cruz The growing friendship between Suzanne and Pamela was clear to see as they posed in the ring together and Pamela made it clear she was out to counter any Ronin3 interference. In the other corner Foxxy was flanked by her stablemates. This was a ‘first ever’ match up between two well known veterans and despite Foxxy’s recent erratic behaviour she seemed focussed. Foxxy’s strength lay in her kicks and range so Suzanne targeted the legs throughout the match landing sharp leg kicks and submission attempts. As Foxxy shot in for a ‘Flash Headkick’ [Running big boot] Suzanne ducked and tripped Foxxy face first to the mat and applied an ankle lock; Foxxy cried out in pain which triggered her stablemates to spring into action on the outside-- Vinny hopped onto the apron to distract the referee and Becca and Toni went after Suzanne. Unfortunately, things didn’t go to plan as Pamela intercepted both women with a double clothesline and promptly chucked them from the ring as Suzanne broke to take a swipe at Vinny. The referee admonished Pamela to get out of the ring giving Foxxy the opportunity to rake the eyes and lifted Suzanne up for what looked like the ‘Miracle Connection’ [suzanne’s Michinoku driver finisher] but the crafty veteran wriggled over her shoulder and pulled Foxxy back into a high stacked roll up. Winner: Suzanne Brazzle via roll up in 12:03 [56] World Summit Date: Fri W3 Oct 2020 Following their loss in the Triosmania finals weighed on Pamela, but Suzanne showed great friendship and pulled her friend away from the brink. At World Summit Brazzle took the initiative to approach the ever temperamental Commissioner Bomb for an opportunity... We find Suzanne Brazzle speaking to Pamela Rojo outside Commissioner Bomb's office... Brazzle: Pamela my friend, you’ve got to snap out of this mood you’re in! Rojo: I'm frustrated. Not only did we lose the Trios Cup but we lost to Hellcat Hernandez... And the issues Alina has had with her recently? I just feel like it's another example of not quite getting the job done when it matters. Brazzle: Whatever is going on between Hellcat and Alina is between them now. I think you're being hard on yourself! We didn't win? That sucks! We learn from what went wrong and move onto the next challenge. Speaking of, that's why we're here [suzanne gestures to the nameplate on the door]. We are going to march in there and ask for an opportunity. Rojo: An opportunity at what? Brazzle: At proving ourselves to her that we deserve to be moving up the card. The only thing is we're going to look stupid asking for something like this if we don't believe in ourselves... Let me rephrase that, if you don't believe in yourself. I believe in you. Why don't you? Rojo: I... I don't know. Brazzle: Do you trust me? Rojo:… Yes. Brazzle: Then follow my lead... [suzanne knocks on the door]. [49] Night of Champions 2020 Date: Fri W3 Dec 2020 Commissioner Bomb took Brazzle's request to heart and put Brazzle & Rojo in a ladder match against: The Uprising, The Honnari & Paige Croft/Christy Higgings. The winners received a mystery opportunity, which many assumed was a QAW World Tag Team Championship shot. Brazzle & Rojo won the match and discovered what it was post-match... After the match Commissioner Bomb joins the winners in the ring with what appears to be a contract… Bomb: What a match, give it up one more time for your winners! [bomb raises Suzanne & Pamela’s hands] Bomb: That wasn’t called the ‘Opportunity Awaits’ ladder match for nothing. Do you want to know what you’ve won? [suzanne & Pamela nod in agreement] Bomb: I felt that the Three Way Dance event needed to be cut this year. But, as a tribute to it, Starshow 2022 will see all QAW champions defending in triple threat matches! Pamela: So we’re in the tag team match? [bomb laughs wickedly] Bomb: I prefer to keep things interesting Pamela! You will both be challenging Emma May for the QAW World Championship! [suzanne & Pamela look at each other in shock] Bomb: May the best woman… Win! [46] Starshow 2021 Date: Sat W3 Jan 2021 Brazzle & Rojo had a short feud with Emma May going into the World Title Triple Threat and both stated their commitment to maintaining their friendship regardless of the outcome. However, Suzanne Brazzle finally revealed her true intentions in QAW and a collective of former AAA workers aligned with her during the match and helped her win... Garcia: And we have a NEW World Champion in Suzanne Brazzle! What is happening right now?! Joanne what did you mean "the beginning"? JRO: It's the beginning of the Fallen Angels! [JRO takes her mic off and enters the ring] Debbie Rose, Joanne Rodriguez, Suzanne Brazzle, Christy Higgins & Kate Lilly The new champions of QAW raise their titles over a downed Pamela Rojo-- with Joanne Rodriguez applauding them. The screen fades to reveal the logo of QAW's newest stable... "THE FALLEN ANGELS" [39] How long was Suzanne Brazzle planning to betray Pamela? And what is her vision for the Fallen Angels in QAW?

Rhysrob Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) QAW 2020 POWER RANKINGS -- TOP 10 #3 Pinky Perez & Mariana Torres "Las Amazonas" "Pinky Perez has stolen the show night in and night out over 2020!" 2020 Win-Loss: 9-2 Average / best / worst match: 52 / 60 / 37 Age: Pinky 30, Mariana 32 Experience: Pinky 11 years, Mariana 13 years Nationality: Both are Mexican Style: Pinky is a Luchadora, Mariana is a technician Signature Moves: "Doble Impacte" -- Double team Electric chair/blockbuster "Pink Butterfly Bomb" -- Double underhook powerbomb [Pinky] "Venus Fly Trap" -- Rolling cross arm-breaker [Mariana] Career Highlights: 1 x QAW World Tag Team Champions 5 x CILL Women's World Champion [Pinky] 1 x COTT Women's World Champion [Pinky] 1 x CILL Women's World Champion [Mariana] Notable relationships: The Experience [Feud] Lilly & Rose [Feud] "The Mexican Ace" Pinky Perez is one of the best luchadoras in the world. An all-rounder who fights with admirable fire in her heart, she was signed to be part of CILL's debut women's roster after impressing on independent shows around Mexico. The fans soon got behind her, loving her never-say-die attitude, and it was no surprise that she was soon in possession CILL World Women's Championship. Having become one of CILL's break-out stars, in 2019 Perez also started working for the QAW in Texas. Debuting in March alongside the mysterious Mariana Torres, they immediately started building towards a big clash with the team many think is the best in the business, Anderson & Snyder... Mariana Torres is a Mexican luchadora who is noted for her slick chain wrestling abilities. Little is known about her except she appeared with Pinky Perez in 2019... San Antonio Invasion Date: Fri W3 Feb 2020 Despite Pinky & Mariana not being known for tag wrestling the tandem made a big impression on the tag division when they joined QAW in 2019. Specifically feuding with The Experience; Las Amazonas entered the number 1 contender tournament and ran through TermiNation, The Uprising and Lilly & Rose on their way to a title shot... TermiNation [unstoppable Tai & Toku Kijmuta] v Las Amazonas [Pinky Perez & Mariana Torres] To describe Unstoppable Tai as a ‘beast’ is an understatement and the audience were awe-struck by her. Her tag team partner, Toku, is a well known bruiser in Japan but next to Tai she looked much less imposing. If the luchadora pairing of Pinky Perez and Mariana Torres were nervous they didn’t show it and stood their ground in the ring. Las Amazonas (and the audience) quickly discovered that either opponent could over power them so stuck to a hit and run strategy which really threw the Japanese pairing off their game. A frustrated Tai overshot a double clothesline and the luchadoras pulled down the top rope causing the giant to go crashing out the ring. Backed into a corner Toku came out swinging without a plan and the more experienced Pinky Perez caught her with a dropkick to the mouth and heaved her up into a ‘Pink Butterfly (power) Bomb’ and Mariana added her weight to the pin to ensure Toku stayed down. Winners: Las Amazonas via pinfall in 13:44 [47] During this time, Pinky Perez faced Poison Ivy in the CILL promotion for the newly created COTT Women's World Championship. There were rumours swirling that Poison Ivy was Mariana Torres who had shown up in QAW. This remains unsubstantiated... Meanwhile in Mexico... Sobrehumano Date: Fri W1 Apr 2020 Location: Zapopan [Occidente] Attendance: 473 Dark match: Catalina Vasquez def. Hellcat Hernandez via DQ [54] Commentary: Victor Fernandez & El Maestro Fernandez: We’re now ready for the main event and it is set to make history! Maestro: When this great company agreed to join the prestigious COTT alliance we did so under one condition: they introduce a women’s singles and tag team division with World Championships! Our Luchadoras are the best in the world and deserve the same opportunities as our luchadors to travel to other promotions and assert their dominance! Fernandez: The Tag Titles were decided last month at OLLIE’s Eternal War where Electric Dreamer and Ursula Saez defeated Elsa Calvo and Purple Viper. I know our luchadora’s are already beginning to speak with one another about potential partnerships to bring those belts to CILL in the near future. Maestro: And who knows we might introduce our own belts! Fernandez: You heard it here first! Maestro: And tonight we have the honour of deciding the first ever COTT World Women’s Champion with Pinky Perez versus Poison Ivy! Two former CILL Women’s Champions in their own right. Fernandez: Although perhaps on different levels El Maestro! Pinky is the record breaking 5 time (5 time!) champion and has been dominating the division for the past 8 years. Poison Ivy has just the 1 reign to her name…! Maestro: Lets not forget that Poison Ivy defeated Pinky for the women’s championship and held it for almost a year! Fernandez: Only to lose it back to Pinky and hasn’t tasted gold since. Pinky has to be the favourite going into this match! And I’m sure the CILL Women’s Champion Maribel Mercado will be watching this one with interest! Confederation Of The Territories World Women’s Championship "The Mexican Ace" Pinky Perez v Poison Ivy The two luchadora’s were making history in the main event and had to go on after the CILL World Championship and Women’s Championship matches, which had been excellent. Fortunately for those viewing the pressure formed a diamond of a match which completely out classed the rest of the card! Pinky Perez has been the face of the women’s division for the past 8 years and put on a performance which showed she was perhaps the face of the entire company. Her opponent, Poison Ivy, was a blast from the past and was Pinky’s first proper championship feud; so it was poetic to see them clash again as Pinky looked to establish her footing on an international stage. The match was pure lucha libre displaying rapid sequences of holds and manoeuvres and both women took to the sky. Ultimately, Pinky Perez got to display everything she had and the crowd never took to the prospect of Ivy winning it (despite controlling portions of the match). Pinky put Poison Ivy away with a ‘Pink Butterfly Bomb’ [double underhook powerbomb] and became the first ever COTT World Women’s Champion! Winner: Pinky Perez via pinfall in 16:09 [70] The Showdown Date: Fri W3 June 2020 Las Amazonas and The Experience had clashed several times but never over the World Championships; they faced off for the gold at The Showdown in a superb bout... QAW World Tag Team Championship The Experience © vs. Las Amazonas These teams have collided over the past year and this was the big rubber match with the grandest prize of them all on the line, and both teams were on top form. The match was a great representation of QAW’s unique selling point with The Experience bringing the rough and ready Southern style mixed with strong technical skills, and Las Amazonas brought pure lucha libre excellence. Despite The Experience being the much more experienced [no pun intended] duo and worked like a well oiled machine, the talking point of the match was Las Amazona’s jaw dropping sequences that had the champions on the ropes more often than not, with particular attention being drawn to Pinky who was clearly moving on a different level to everyone else in the ring. Sensing danger The Experience were not opposed to bending the rules to hold onto their gold and scored a distraction from Bossman Brayfield hilariously throwing his shoe from the announce table, which somehow managed to catch Mariana in the face. From there Lily and Ava worked an extended heat segment on Mariana working the leg. The uber charismatic Pinky worked the crowd from the ring apron and rallied Mariana numerous times but each time Mariana went for a tag The Experience intercepted it. On the 3rd attempt, Lily snuck up on Pinky and pulled her from the apron but Pinky landed on her feet, took Lily out with a hard clothesline and made it back on the apron for the hot tag. The sequence that followed would make it onto youtube one day as it was performed with perfect fluidity. Pinky charged Ava down with a clothesline, then a drop kick and finished with a springboard cross body. Instead of going for the cover Pinky rolled towards the turnbuckle, leapt onto the top rope and soared to the outside with a cross body onto Lily, which looked like it flattened her. Pinky hopped back onto the apron and sprung onto the top rope and nailed Ava in the face with a meteora. Before Ava could catch her bearings Mariana [who made the blind tag on the apron] had her by the arm and rolled her through into the ‘Venus Fly-Trap’ [Rolling cross-arm breaker]. Ava had no choice but to tap when it became clear Lily wasn’t around to save the day! "AND NEW QAW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, LAS AMAZONAS!" Winners: Las Amazonas def. The Experience via submission 18:20 [57] Garcia: What a match!!! New champions, Farrah! New champions-a-go-go! Hesketh: Folks, Las Amazonas have done it! They said they were winning those belts tonight and they did it with style! Brayfield: Do you two mind?! This is a disgrace! A travesty! That tapout was called far too early, did you see? Ava wasn't tapping. Garcia: What was it then? Brayfield: She was fighting it! That wasn't a tap. I'll be lodging a complaint with Commissioner Bomb as soon as I get backstage. Hesketh: Well, as we wait for the outcome of that, we still have new QAW World Tag Team Champions in Pinky Perez and Mariana Torres! Two world class talents who I hope will elevate the division to new heights! Trios Tour Night#2 Date: Mon W3 Oct 2020 Las Amazonas settled into their reign well. But, The Experience continually asserted themselves into matches which didn't go unnoticed by Lilly & Rose. Cracks started to appear between Las Amazonas going into Triosmania when Mariana was barred from competing... w/w/ Kate Lilly w/ Debbie Rose vs. Mariana Torres w/ Pinky Perez There was noticeable dissension between Las Amazonas before the bell as Pinky tried insisting on wrestling but Mariana refused; commentary pondered the strategy as Pinky was the more decorated singles competitor. In contrast, Kate waited confidently in the centre of the ring as Pinky was ushered out. Kate used her speed advantage to run circles around Mariana who was more technician than flyer with some success early on, but unfortunately for Kate, Mariana was well versed in slowing down luchadoras from her years in Mexico. This was demonstrated nicely when Kate sprung onto the 2nd rope looking for a cross body but had her leg chop blocked from behind causing her to land in a heap, tangled in the ropes. Mariana took immediate advantage and wrenched the leg on the ropes and applied pressure to the knee by standing on the leg as the referee, and crowd, protested. As the referee checked on Kate, Pinky caught her partner's attention and seemed to also be voicing her displeasure at the tactic-- Mariana brushed it off and continued working the leg. Garcia: Pinky and Mariana don’t seem on the same page tonight! Hesketh: There is a spot at Triosmania on the line so this match is high stakes! And the higher the stakes the higher reward, Alfonso. Money, exposure, legacy! It’s all to play for! Later in the match Kate fired up and got some offense in which resulted with Mariana on her shoulders, maybe going for an electric chair drop, but Mariana raked the eyes and rolled Kate in her 'Venus Fly-Trap' submission [rolling cross armbreaker] but was unable to lock it in before Kate reached the ropes. Again, Pinky caught her partner's attention in an attempt to coach Mariana and Kate pulled her down into a small package for the win. In a match with decent reaction but sub-par wrestling, Kate Lilly def. Mariana Torres via roll up in 15:22 [44] This match got the show off to a strong start Debbie slides into the ring and raises her partner's hand in victory whilst Mariana clutches her hair in disbelief-- Pinky guiltily placed a hand on Mariana's shoulder only to be shrugged away. Suddenly, Commissioner Bomb's music cut across Kate's, and the Commissioner appeared in the entrance way mic in hand. Bomb: Congratulations Kate and Debbie! You've got your ticket to Triosmania... Well, you've got their ticket [Lilly & Rose laugh and high five] Bomb: You earned it fair and square but I forgot to mention the other stipulation... [Lilly & Rose stop laughing] Bomb: You now have to choose one of the losing members to be your 3rd in the tournament-- Choose wisely! The two teams grimace at each other as the crowd start chanting between Pinky and Mariana. Kate and Debbie confer with each other and after a moment Debbie turns to Pinky and seemingly chooses her. Before she can respond Mariana takes her partner by the arm and pulls her away, leaving Lilly & Rose in the ring [50] Starshow 2021 Date: Sat W3 Jan 2021 The trio of Pinky and Lilly & Rose was ultimately unsuccessful at Triosmania. However, it contributed to a rift between Pinky and Mariana that continued to grow over the months. Many feel this was in part caused by Lilly & Rose but also insecurity on Mariana's behalf as Pinky was receiving stronger praise. Las Amazonas went into Starshow 2021 looking to defend against their two biggest rivals and move on to new challenges... QAW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP TRIPLE THREAT W/ Las Amazonas [Mariana Torres & Pinky Perez] © vs. Lilly & Rose [Kate Lilly & Debbie Rose] vs. The Experience [Lily Snyder & Ava Anderson] w/ Bossman Brayfield The much anticipated showdown between the top 3 tag teams in QAW who have clashed throughout 2020. The match was personal with everyone opting to brawl- hard forearms, clotheslines and knife edge chops for all! The fractured relationship between Mariana and Pinky held until a miscommunication saw Pinky dropkick Mariana off the apron. As Pinky pulled at her hair, Debbie Rose tagged in and continued the match with Ava. As Las Amazonas began arguing at ringside; Kate Lilly retrieved one of the title belts and distracted the referee by sliding it into the ring. This triggered Bossman Brayfield who clambered onto the apron ranting and raving which prolonged the confusion.

Rhysrob Posted August 4, 2022 Author Share Posted August 4, 2022 (edited) QAW 2020 POWER RANKINGS -- TOP 10 #2 "The Face of QAW" Alina America "Alina is the undeniable figurehead of QAW!" 2020 Win-Loss: 11-4 Average / best / worst match: 55 / 56 / 54 Age: 31 Experience: 10 years Nationality: Mexican Style: Wrestler Signature Moves: "Southern Lights Bomb" -- Northern Lights Bomb Split legged moonsault Career Highlights: 2 x QAW World Champion 1 x QAW Queen of the Ring 3 x QAW Shockwave Champion Tied for most Shockwave reigns 1 x WPL Women's Champion Notable relationships: Emma May [rival] Hellcat Hernandez [rival] Danielle Sweetheart [strained relationship] Pamela Rojo [strained relationship] The stunning Alina America is a gorgeous luchadora from the heart of Mexico City who now lives in Dallas. She first came to people's attention via the QAW, who she joined in time for their first ever show in 2010, with her combination of looks and technical skill being hard to ignore. She quickly became one of the break-out stars of the company, becoming the first wrestler to win three Shockwave titles and shooting up the card. She's now one of the biggest stars they have, a two time World champion, and it is almost guaranteed that she's going to end up in one of the bigger leagues eventually - booked correctly, she's virtually a license to print money... QAW Starshow 2020 Date: Fri W3 Jan 2020 Alina & Emma May had spent much of 2019 chasing the then champion Foxxy Larue; it was Alina that won that particular race and she defended against her rival straight away. However, Danielle Sweetheart returned at this time [having been injured by Emma previously] and she was inserted into the match as special guest referee... QAW World Championship Alina America © vs Emma May Special Guest referee: Danielle Sweetheart The match started with a feeling out process and Alina demonstrated great technical proficiency going hold for hold on the mat with Emma and the two exchanged a series of roll ups which Danielle counted fairly. Alina hit Emma with a victory roll at the 5 minute mark and almost got the 3 count causing Emma to roll out the ring. An irate Emma berated Danielle for a fast count from ringside but Danielle simply began counting her out. Emma broke the count a couple of times before a frustrated Alina gave chase around the ring and back inside-- Alina feinted sliding in the ring which drew Emma towards her and allowed her to trip a leg and drag her back outside the ring where she continued the attack. The close quarters at ringside favoured Emma and she ducked a high kick from Alina who connected with the ring post instead; she cried out in agony causing Danielle to exit the ring and check on her. This irritated Emma and she barged Danielle out the way and stomped away at Alina's leg until Danielle pushed her away as Alina clutched at her knee. The two exchanged heated words and Danielle could be heard threatening to DQ Emma if she touched her again. Both competitors re-entered the ring and circled each other mirroring the start of the match but Alina now had a limp which was blood in the water for Emma. The match then became a game of cat and mouse with Alina playing defence and avoiding the relentless attack on her left leg and endured a particularly nasty looking dragon screw which caused Alina to retreat into the corner with Emma in hot pursuit pelting Alina with strikes. This triggered Danielle to begin 5 counts but on 4 decided to pull Emma away instead of finishing. Emma shrugged it off initially and went back to work causing Danielle to pull her away more aggressively. Emma: What the hell are you doing?! Danielle: I warned you to keep it clean and you’re hitting the 5 count. I don’t want to disqualify you! Emma shoved Danielle to the ground and turned back to Alina who had hoisted herself to the top rope and surprised her with cross body block for a 2 count. Alina grabbed at her knee again as Emma rose to her feet but instead turned her attention back to Danielle in disbelief she made a count against her and the two pressed foreheads in the middle of ring seemingly on the verge of tearing each other apart. Danielle composed herself and backed away as Alina rallied to her feet who caught a menacing looking Emma into a Southern Lights Bomb for the 3-count, although Emma kicked out a fraction of a second after the final count. Winner: Alina America via pinfall in 17:57 [47] Road to Battlebowl 2020 special Date: Fri W3 May 2020 Alina fended off both Emma and Pamela Rojo and looked set for a solid reign. At the top of the year QAW formed the Women's Wrestling Council with 5SSW; as QAW's champion Alina toured with 5SSW ahead of facing off with 5SSW's champion Yuma Maruya. Alina came away with both the win and a budding friendship with Maruya... 5SSW World Champion: Yuma Maruya [A short video of career highlights play] Commissioner Bomb and Alina America Bomb: Last but by no means least, Alina America! Welcome to my office! America: Thank you for having me! Bomb: Alina, as the current reigning QAW World Champion, what do you think of this alliance? America: I don’t know if my fellow champions would admit to this but it is a dream come true for me. I didn’t have the easiest up bringing in Mexico. My family tried their hardest, and when I was a little girl I was very happy, but as I grew up I began to notice that we were actually very poor compared to other families. I thought it was normal for your parents to work at least 3 jobs at a time…! At times it felt as though the world was closing in around me and my future was decided already. But lucha libre saved my life. My abuela loved it! She would take me on special occasions to OLLIE shows and I just fell in love too. It was a total escape from reality and once I tasted it I didn’t want to let it go! So, when I was old enough I worked 3 jobs like my parents and saved up for wrestling training! At the dojo we used to swap wrestling dvds and one day someone gave me 5SSW Joshimania 2007, Sensational Ogiwara defeated Crusher Ichihara for her 8th world title reign. My eyes were opened to the wider world at that point, it was so different to lucha libre and everything that I thought wrestling was meant to be. It absolutely inspired me and 13 years later I’m here in America at the top of my game. And now I have the best of Japan knocking on my door to face me. Bomb: You sure do! To be specific you have 6 time 5SSW World Champion Yuma Maruya knocking! So, are you going to defeat her? America: Of course I am. Frankly, I can’t afford to think anything else! The woman has 17 years of experience. When I was learning how to bump on a crappy ring in someone’s backyard Yuma was winning championships. Before I even made my professional debut Yuma was a world champion! She is a one of a kind talent who can do everything I can, probably better too… She’s faced DEVIL Karube, Joanne Rodriguez and the Sensational Ogiwara herself... Bomb: You don’t sound very confident! America: When I was a little girl I used to look out of my window at the night sky and feel hopeless. The sky was so vast and I feared I would be stuck under the same patch of it forever. But I worked hard to chase my dream and I promise that little girl who dreamed of more that I will win at Battlebowl. Yuma Maruya, you may have notched some legendary names into your belt… But you will not claim Alina America's! The Showdown Date: Fri W3 June 2020 Danielle Sweetheart was Alina's next challenge to overcome. She did so at The Showdown in an excellent match. However, Emma May was still not far behind. Things came to a head at Crowning the Queen after Alina fought her way to the finals only to be manipulated by Commissioner Bomb to defend her title in the main event against a fresher Emma May. Things didn't go well for Alina... QAW World Championship Alina America © vs. 'The Queen of Hearts' Danielle Sweetheart Alina and Danielle had a tough act to follow, but if any pair could capitalise on the crowd’s excitement it was these two, and they put on the best match in QAW’s history to date. Both women have grown into similar competitors over the years, although many critics would give Danielle the edge in terms of experience, but concede Alina held the star quality. Despite their prickly exchange earlier both competitors wanted to keep things respectful and treated the audience to some slick chain wrestling which resulted in several stalemates and had the crowd locked in duelling ‘Lets go Alina/Danielle’ chants. Early on Danielle managed to take Alina’s back in the pursuit of a choke but Alina managed to power to her feet, with Danielle on clutched on, and flung herself backwards into the turnbuckle, snapmared Danielle forward and took to the top rope. However, it was too early to go high risk and Danielle joined Alina on the ropes before she could react, and landed a hard forearm shiver sending Alina crashing onto the apron and to the outside. Now, it was Danielle’s turn to go high risk and she scored a somersault plancha from the top rope. The referee started the 10 count as Danielle and Alina struggled to their feet and Emma May was out of her chair talking smack to both competitors. The challenger, Danielle, knew all too well she couldn’t win the title via count out and heaved Alina up onto the apron, where Alina repaid her with a stiff headbutt to the chest. As Danielle clutched her chest, Alina hoisted her onto her shoulders and hit an air raid crash. The crowd cringed as the apron was famously the hardest part of the ring and many called for medics to check on Danielle. But she emphatically kicked out at 1 and as Alina pulled her up Danielle caught her with a stiff right hand. After checking her nose for blood Alina gave a receipt and the crowd knew the gloves were off now. Although the match returned to being a technical affair both wrestlers were noticeably seeking painful submissions and weren’t afraid to add spice with some strikes. A notable moment came towards the end of the sequence when Alina went for a kimura on the same arm Emma May had injured previously, but Danielle had it well scouted and caught Alina on the nose with a sharp elbow. In another notable moment Alina scored a near fall on Danielle with a split-legged moonsault in homage to Yuma Maruya. As the match progressed it was evident that Alina had returned to form and Danielle had work cut out for her. The beginning of the end came when Emma declared on commentary that she was bored of the match, grabbed the world title belt and hopped onto the apron prompting the referee to immediately block her entry to the ring. Before Emma could ruin anything, Alina slid through both sets of the leg to the outside and delivered a devastating looking powerbomb to Emma onto the mats. Upon reentry to the ring Alina walked straight into a kick from Danielle who followed up with a ‘Vessey Driver’ [spinning Death Valley Driver] which awed the crowd. Which was in tribute to the Vessey Family, particularly the recently deceased Larry Vessey. “1, 2…--!” Commentary called for a replay to determine if Alina had actually kicked out but it was clear only a fraction of second saved the match. A frustrated and tired Danielle signalled for the end of the match and took to the top rope. As commentary wondered what her intentions were something caught Danielle’s eye from the audience. Inexplicably, Fuyuko Higa had appeared in the front row and was shouting at Danielle, who completely took her eyes off Alina for about 10 seconds. As Alina staggered into the centre of the ring Danielle snapped back to the action and leapt in the air for a missile dropkick which crashed and burned as Alina sidestepped it. Sensing her chance, Alina dragged her challenger up and hit her 'Southern Lights Bomb' followed by a La Magistral pin to clinch the successful defence. Winner: Alina America via pin in 22:10 [56] Road to Starshow Tour Night#2 Date: Sat W2 Jan 2020 Alina made her intentions to regain her title from Emma but she was quickly derailed by Hellcat Hernandez who began targeting her for no reason. The two fought at Capital Clash, with Alina winning, but Hellcat attacked her after the bell; Hellcat went on to have Alina's number for several months... The feed transitions to a pre-recorded promo from Alina America... Alina: Hellcat, you may think you’re done with me but I’m not done with you. You pinned me at Trios and World Summit but I won our last singles match. And when I won you attacked me and I’m not going to just let you walk all over me like that. I’m the face of QAW and I take that seriously! I’ll be damned if the example I set to our young viewers, and the rest of the locker room, is one that says bullies get to do what they want when things don’t go their way. So, yeah, I’m willing to take you on in a street fight! No doubt you think I don't know what I'm doing but we grew up in the same place. You think I didn’t have to fight my way through as well? I’m ready for you Hellcat. Are you ready for me? [55] Starshow 2021 Date: Sat W3 Jan 2021 Fans saw a new side of Alina America during her feud with Hellcat. More aggression and fire, and also the emergence of "The Face of QAW" gimmick. Alina agreed to go out of her comfort zone for a shot at revenge against Hellcat, so the two clashed at Starshow 2021 in a Street Fight... Street Fight Hellcat Hernandez vs. Alina America Both competitors punctuated the match by wearing street gear and taped up fists and at the bell they charged each other swinging for the fences; so much so you’d be forgiven for thinking you’d tuned into an MMA bout. The referee did little to restore order and both women separated after a minute-- with Alina sporting a bloodied nose. Hellcat and Alina then shot out the ring and started throwing various weapons into the ring-- Trash cans, kendo sticks, baking trays, steel chairs and a mysterious black bag. From there the match devolved into various weapon spots: Alina suplexed Hellcat onto a trash can. Hellcat placed a cookie sheet on Alina’s sternum and delivered a double stomp from the middle rope. Both women clobbered each other with everything but the kitchen sink! After taking several chair shots Hellcat miraculously stole the advantage by literally throwing a steel chair into Alina’s face. As Alina clutched her face Hellcat couldn’t resist show boating and started jaw jacking with a young girl in the front row. This distracted her enough to not notice Alina crawling over to a kendo stick and as Hellcat returned her attention she got lit up with snapping shots all over the body much to the crowds delight. Satisfied with her handiwork Alina retrieved the black bag which everyone assumed to be thumb tacks but it was actually a… Garcia: Is that a red brick? JRO: Didn’t Alina ask Hellcat what was “red and bad for your teeth”? She meant a brick! And she’s placed it in the middle of the ring. What is she thinking?! Alina dragged Hellcat to her feet, hit a kick followed by a picture perfect Face Buster smashing Hellcat face first into the brick which crumbled on impact. The crowd counted along with the referee as they knew there was no way Hellcat was getting up from that... Winner: Alina America via pin 11:48 [54] With Suzanne Brazzle winning the World Title how will "The Face of QAW" respond to the Fallen Angels modelling themselves after AAA? Or will she pursue her unfinished business with Emma May? Edited October 1, 2022 by Rhysrob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhysrob Posted August 9, 2022 Author Share Posted August 9, 2022 (edited) QAW 2020 POWER RANKINGS -- TOP 10 #1 "World Class" Emma May "Emma May is THE hottest act in QAW!" 2020 Win-Loss: 11-4 Average / best / worst match: 50 / 62 / 31 Age: 30 Experience: 10 years Nationality: American Style: Technician Striker Signature Moves: Kimura Arm-bar Rear-naked choke Triangle choke Career Highlights: 1 x QAW World Champion 1 x QAW Queen of the Ring 2020 QAW Match of the Year 2 x QAW Shockwave Champion Most Shockwave defences-- 9 Notable relationships: Leader of The Furies [alliance] Alina America [rival] Emma May (Emma Welsh) is an American wrestler who runs a Mixed Martial Arts gimmick, tapping in (or out, as the case may be) to her legit background in jiu-jitsu. Charismatic and adept at funny trash-talk, May could be a big name in women's wrestling if handled correctly. She joined QAW in 2015, her first taste of a 'name' company, and instantly started making waves with a gimmick where she started intentionally injuring opponents (in kayfabe) with her kimura. That gimmick didn't last long, but made a strong enough impression that it rocketed May up the card and she is now one of the hottest acts in the entire company.... Big City Breakdown Date: Fri W3 Apr 2020 Emma flew into 2020 hot on the heels of new QAW champion Alina America. She punctuated that pursuit by taking Danielle Sweetheart out of her path... Danielle Sweetheart v Emma May The crowd was ready to see this match and their reactions during the entrances was enough to show why this was going on as the main event. The last time they had met in a ring for singles action was 7 months ago where Danielle came away with the victory but had her arm almost broken by Emma after the match. Since then the two were destined for a rematch and the last time they were in a ring together Emma May had put Danielle to sleep. The two women locked up in the centre of the ring showing slick technical wrestling and everything had just a little extra force on it making every hold look like they were genuinely trying to rip each others’ limbs off, although Danielle was much better at selling it than Emma was. After a few minutes of mat wrestling Emma shot for a Kimura lock which Danielle quickly rolled out of and retreated to the safety of the ropes. This delighted Emma who knew she had a winning formula now and she arrogantly lay on her back and challenged Danielle to grapple with her. Showing great resolve Danielle charged forward and immediately wrapped up Emma in a Magistral Cradle for a near fall. Before Emma could react Danielle had her up again for a backslide for another near fall. As Emma got up she ate a picture perfect drop kick to the face and she now found herself retreating for a rope break. Danielle pressed the advantage but the referee blocked her path causing the two to bicker about the rules and Emma landed a cheap shot on Danielle knocking her silly. Emma took Danielle by the back of the neck and rammed her shoulder first into the turnbuckle and took her down to the mat and started trying to lock in her patented Kimura. The veteran Danielle had enough wherewithal to sense danger and struggled out of Emma’s grip eventually finding herself on her side in a hammer lock half nelson with Emma trying to take the back. The crowd got behind Danielle who rallied out of the hold getting to her feet forcing Emma to revert to a full nelson. The two women struggled for a moment before Danielle put herself in reverse and forced Emma back into the turnbuckle forcing her to break the hold. The crowd was on their feet as Danielle bounced Emma around the ring with right hands, clotheslines and a flying cross body followed up with an impressive spring board leg drop off the ropes. Danielle pointed to the turnbuckle signalling she was going high risk and made her ascent. She waited perched on the turnbuckle as Emma groggily got to her feet, instead of doing as Danielle wanted and turning around, Emma lurched sideways and hit the ropes causing Danielle to slip and land on her backside. In an amazing feat of athleticism Emma leapt up onto the top rope, seized Danielle’s arm in a flying arm bar and brought her crashing down to the mat from the top rope already trapped in the submission. Danielle did her best to fight it but Emma was too much to overcome and she forced a shocking tap out. Winner: Emma May def Danielle Sweetheart via submission in 18:07 [57]] Crowning the Queen XI Date: Fri W3 July 2020 Emma was made to wait for her opportunity by Commissioner Bomb which raised tensions. At Crowing the Queen Emma's tenuous patience was rewarded in a winner take all tournament final against Alina... Queen of the Ring Finals QAW World Championship: Alina America © vs. Emma May Alina looked stoic during her entrance and was clearly fatigued from the previous matches; commentary wondered about her back in particular. But, this was familiar territory for Alina who had faced Emma before with an injury and won. In contrast Emma May appeared the definition of ‘smug’ and she stared Alina down as the ring introductions were made. The crowd felt uneasy but fired up to see their champion, Alina America, overcome the odds yet again. At the bell Alina came out of her corner hot with a dropkick taking Emma off her feet. The champion charged around the ring on pure adrenaline hitting her challenger with everything she had from drop kicks to arm drags and ranas; desperately avoiding being drawn into a grappling contest. After a series of near falls, Emma retreated to the outside. The champion was not going to be baited out of the ring like she was at Starshow and told the referee to count. On the 7 count Emma rolled into the ring and Alina rushed in with kicks but Emma weathered the storm, caught one of kicks and Alina lost balance. This was enough for Emma to score a single leg takedown and the difference in energy levels became apparent as Alina scrambled away but Emma shut her escape down by simply overpowering her and dragging her up for a gutwrench suplex. The shot of pain to Alina’s back caused her to sit straight up which left her open to several hard kicks to the back. The matched continued for several more excruciating minutes of Emma stalking Alina using suplexes and slams clearly wearing her down but not going for the kill. To her credit Alina fought back at every chance but never enough to turn the tide. The finish came when Emma went in for a standing rear naked choke but Alina had it well scouted and dropped to the mat and pulled Emma into a small package pin for a near fall. "1,2..-!" Before Alina could get to her feet May was already on her and powered her up into a big spinebuster in the centre of the ring. From there May passed Alina’s guard and locked a figure four around her waist and gradually took the back. The champion fended off the choke attempts so Emma resorted to short elbow shots and cross faces, all the while using her legs to squeeze the air out of Alina. After taking several rough hits Alina tried bridging but didn’t have the energy and just ended up getting flattened out, and the rear naked choke was locked in. The crowd was in a frenzy urging Alina on; it was clear Alina was fighting it but after 30 long seconds she faded, and the referee called the match for Alina’s own safety. "Your winner, and the 11th prestigious Queen of the Ring, and, NEW QAW World Champion, EMMA MAY!" Winner: Emma May def. Alina America via stoppage in 11:46 [56] The match got the crowd buzzing Garcia: NEW CHAMPION! Emma May has done it lucha fans! Not only is Emma May the new QAW world champion but she is the reigning Queen of the Ring too! Incredible! Hesketh: It was a fair match but you have to question whether that should have been for the QAW world championship too! I can't help but feel Alina America was screwed over tonight by Commissioner Bomb. Garcia: At the end of the day that was a sanctioned match Farrah, and Emma May stormed through the champion on her way to the gold! Hesketh: A much more damaged and worn out champion...! Anyway, congratulations to our new QAW World Champion, Emma May! Garcia: Alina America is being checked on by officials; Emma May has been joined in the ring by her Furies stablemates Honey Badger and Marie Punnen. Hesketh: You would think she had just won the Queen of the Ring tournament fairly... Garcia: Lucha fans that is all we have time for! We'll see you at Amazons Attack next month! World Summit Date: Fri W3 Oct 2020 Emma started her reign well with decisive victories over Juana Hurricane, Ash Grover, and the eventual match of the year against Electric Dreamer... QAW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 'World Class' Emma May © vs. Electric Dreamer Despite it being her debut Dreamer made an immediate impact with the crowd and enjoyed their support for the entire match. This didn't deter Emma though and commentary noted that since winning the title she seemed to be a lot crisper-- Something JRO put down to the extra training she heard Emma was undertaking. Dreamer put up a valiant effort but the outcome was never really in doubt with Emma catching Dreamer in a dangerous looking arm bar for the tap out. Winner: Emma May via submission in 13:22 [3rd defence] [62] This match had the crowd buzzing Garcia: Another decisive win for our champion! Her array of submissions are truly impressive. JRO: It's going to take someone special to take that title from her. But she is very methodical and I'm not sure she does well against less predictable opponents. We've seen Emma struggle with strikers in the past so will Hellcat Hernandez's unorthodox brawling style throw Emma off her game? Garcia: Good point! I guess we'll find out next month at Night of Champions! See you there QAW faithful! Night of Champions 2020 Date: Fri W3 Dec 2020 One of Emma's bigger challenges was from an emerging Hellcat Hernandez who certainly had the brawling acumen to counter Emma's slick technical abilities... Dharma Gregg, is standing by in the ring between Emma May and Hellcat Hernandez... Dharma: QAW faithful welcome to Night of Champions! Joining me now are the two women fighting for the QAW World Championship in the main event. The champion, Emma May and her challenger, Hellcat Hernandez… Hellcat, I believe you requested this chance to address Emma publicly? Hellcat: I did... Emma, I heard your lame 'back alley' jab at me last month! Its funny to me how quickly you have forgotten the last time we met in the ring... Emma: Enlighten me. Hellcat: About 3 years ago for the Shockwave Championship… Did I whack you on the head that bad? Emma: Not at all. But it has no relevance today. You're living in the past! Hellcat: I disagree! I defeated you for that title AND you failed on the rematch. For the people betting here tonight they would consider that key information! I have defeated you in every singles match we’ve ever had. And you called me ‘back alley’… Emma: You won the matches but you never defeated me. You got away with your tricks back then but the Emma May today, ‘World Class’ Emma May, no… You’re dealing with an entirely new woman and your bullshit isn’t going to protect you from me. Hellcat: If I was running circles around you 3 years ago what do you think it’ll be now? Emma: Ha! You're feeling tough because you’ve been doing that to Alina America recently. I'll remind you the last time Alina got in the ring with me she was seeing stars. [Hellcat scoffs] Emma: You are just not on my level and you never were. But don’t feel bad because no one is! You will bend. You will break. You will suff--[Hellcat spits in Emma's face and quickly leaves the ring]. [Emma is stunned for a moment before she composes herself] Emma: You will SUFFER like the rest!! [Emma throws the mic out the ring at Hellcat who laughs defiantly flipping the bird at the camera] [50] Emma stood out. This promo got the crowd hot and was a strong start to the show Starshow 2021 Date: Sat W3 Jan 2021 Emma overcame Hellcat and many had her pegged to be embarking on an unforgettable run with the championship. Her next challengers came in the form of the [then] tag-team: Pamela Rojo & Suzanne Brazzle. She made it very clear she didn't rate either challenger, something which backfired on her... Meanwhile, Dharma is standing by with World Champ, Emma May... Dharma: QAW faithful, please welcome my guest at this time, QAW World Champion: Emma May. You're now 6 months as champion and you've had some great defences. But tonight you face your toughest challenge yet, a triple threat against Pamela Rojo and Suzanne Brazzle, a tag team! How do you feel going into tonight's main event? Emma: The tag and Shockwave titles changed hands tonight. I could lose my title and not even be pinned! That is bullshit! So… In that sense tonight is a tough challenge. Particularly as I'm taking on the sisters of the travelling wrestling tights. But let me remind you, and everyone at home, who I am... I am the Queen of the Ring and your World Champion. My challengers tonight are two pathetic has-beens who are hanging around QAW well past their expiry dates. So this is a challenge I'm more than ready to rise to! [35] Will Emma be able to regain her title? Edited October 1, 2022 by Rhysrob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friends in the Fallen Angels had a lot to celebrate after winning all the QAW gold in one night-- I must have misplaced my phone. Garcia: So, you're a member? JRO: I am still an impartial broadcaster. Garcia: Right... Well, we have a great show lined up tonight! Lilly & Rose will defend the Tag Titles against former champions Las Amazonas in the main event! And the new World Champion will also be in action in an open challenge-- Quite a gutsy move on your first night as champ! JRO: Absolutely, but if you can back it up, why not? Garcia: We also have the 5SSW Tag Titles on the line. Danielle and Ashley will defend against The Uprising... Hang on, are they Fallen Angels too?! JRO: Not to my knowledge... Garcia: Hmm. And tonight is a momentous night in QAW history as we are proud to announce we have officially joined the Confederation of the Territories wrestling alliance! This was on the proviso that all COTT members instigate a women's division, which was accepted-- So, we are proud to pioneer womens wrestling in this new deal! [suzanne Brazzle's music hits] JRO: Here are the Fallen Angels themselves, if you want a membership list maybe they'll give you one? Garcia: I hope so, I want some answers-a-go-go! The Fallen Angels are stood in the ring wearing all the QAW gold... Suzanne Brazzle, Debbie Rose, Kate Lilly & Christy Higgins Brazzle: I know what you're all thinking... Damn they look good! [The crowd boos] Brazzle: What you're looking at right now is nothing short of a miracle. And let me tell you why. Once upon a time there was a wrestling promotion called AAA. For decades AAA nurtured the best women's wrestlers on the planet, including the women in this ring right now. It gave us stability, friendships, and means to put food on the table during a time when most promotions slammed the door on us! We weren't the biggest but we were happy, and when one of our own left to start up QAW we were thrilled! We were all so excited to be able to work in a new area one day and mix it up with new opponents... So, imagine our disappointment when our friend, Farrah Hesketh, just never called. [Kate takes the mic from Suzanne] Kate: The call never came but we carried on. The economy was down but we thought things were going well; none of us knew the company was struggling to the extent it was. And by the time we did.... It was too late. In 2017 AAA, our home, closed its doors and we were scattered to the winds! [Christy takes the mic] Christy: But do you know what's messed up? Anne and Catherine reached out to Farrah and QAW! They asked for help. A loan. Cross-promotion. Talent exchanges... Anything! They were ignored! Farrah sat idly by and watched her 'friends' lose their livelihoods... That doesn't sit right with us! [Debbie takes the mic] Debbie: Why is it that QAW-- A promotion full of lame luchadoras and nobodies got to survive over us? It's not right! So, Suzanne hatched a plan and rallied us around it. We don't want to destroy QAW. Not at all. We simply want to recreate it, in our own image. A better image. Cherry Bomb worked her way into QAW as Commissioner and opened the door for the rest of us. Lilly & Rose were a shoe in for the tag tournament. Christy made sure to bump into her old "bestie" Little Miss Perfect in 5SSW. Suzanne knew the exact moment to reach out to Pamela Rojo when she was at her lowest. And maybe we helped Foxxy Larue with her little Farrah problem... We planned every detail because we knew we had one opportunity to strike... [All four women lift their title belts & Brazzle takes the mic for the final time] Brazzle: And it paid off! I prayed every night for our plans to succeed and they did. Everything I envisaged has come true-- that has to mean something! From the ashes of QAW a new AAA will rise and if you are not with us; then you are against us. It's a miracle! [The crowd boo the Fallen Angels relentlessly and start a "QAW!" chant] Brazzle: Boo all you want, you can't stop progress! The real work begins now. As QAW's new figurehead its my responsibility to redefine what QAW stands for. So I asked Commissioner Bomb to find me a worthy challenger tonight. Someone who would benefit from stepping into the ring with a legend like myself. Someone in need of a brush with greatness...! [36] QAW World Championship "The Miracle" Suzanne Brazzle © vs. Estrella Blanca On commentary, JRO explained the importance of Suzanne's 'Miracle Open Challenge'-- A chance for lesser known talents to gain exposure and for Suzanne to show she was a fighting champion. Garcia reminded everyone Blanca is in-fact the first ever CILL Women's Champion and a pioneer in Mexico... Garcia: I think Brazzle might be biting off more than she can chew! JRO: Suzanne is 'The Miracle'! Have faith! Brazzle worked the new 'Miracle' gimmick by asking Blanca to bow to her-- which Blanca played along with until she tried to catch a flash roll up. "How dare you!" Screamed Suzanne. The match was a great showing for Blanca and things looked to be 50/50. After a series of suplexes Brazzle rolled to the outside to regain composure. As the referee focused on getting Brazzle back into the ring, Blanca looked to be psyching herself up for a tope suicida-- the crowd started to cheer her on and Blanca ran the ropes but someone from the outside tripped her... Garcia: That's Steph Blake! She's back in QAW! JRO: The only AAA Triple Crown Champion! It's a miracle... Blanca obviously took exception to it and leaned through the ropes to argue with Blake who responded with a stiff right. On cue, Brazzle slid back into the ring and scored a "Miracle Connection" [Michinoku Driver] for the 3 count. After the match Blake handed Suzanne the QAW World Championship and dumped Blanca out of the ring. Winner: Suzanne Brazzle via pin 09:38 [1st defence] [49] Suzanne celebrates with the QAW title as if she's won the lottery as Steph watches on without expression JRO: A very promising first defence by Suzanne Brazzle! What a performance! Garcia: Did she really need the assist from Steph Blake? JRO: Assist?! You sound very bias right now. Steph is a friend of Suzanne's and she simply came out to her support her... Maybe Blanca should have been focused on the match and not so easily distracted! It's not like Steph put a hand on her! Garcia: Steph literally punched her!! [As Garcia is speaking a rush of activity happens in the ring and Suzanne is ripped down from the turnbuckle by Pamela Rojo!] Pamela tackles Brazzle down to the mat and lands some heavy blows but before any real damage is dished out Steph intervenes. As Steph and Pamela scramble throwing wild swings at each other, Suzanne recovers and clubs Pamela on the back with the belt; Steph hoists a dazed Pamela into a Full Nelson. The crowd boos as Brazzle makes a production of striking Pamela down but as she takes her shot Pamela muscles free and Steph ends up getting blasted. Before Brazzle knows whats happened she is clothes lined out the ring! The two Fallen Angels cling onto each other backing up the ramp as Pamela stands tall in the ring gesturing she is coming for the title. [35] We cut to a pre-recorded segment from Starshow. A bruised and bloody Alina America is being tended to by a doctor as Dharma Gregg stands by... Dharma: Alina, what a brutal match you just had with Hellcat Hernandez. Congratulations on your victory. It looked like a total war, is this the toughest match you’ve had to date? Alina: I’m a little emotional Dharma. So please forgive me if I can’t get my words out right now… Dharma: Take your time… Alina: The adrenaline is still pumping but I know when it wears off I’m going to be in a lot of pain! I don’t think I’ll be able to walk for a week to be honest… But, it’ll be worth it because wrestling is my passion and any chance I get to compete in front of the fans is a dream come true… [Alina stops speaking as she fights back tears] Dharma: What is next for you, Alina? Alina: A lot of people had written me off. I know that. I was made a fool out of by Commissioner Bomb when I lost the title to Emma. Then out of nowhere Hellcat targeted me; that didn't happen by accident. But I'm done with the distractions now and beating Hellcat tonight proves that I am the better woman. It proves I have versatility in my game. And it proves I’m ready to regain my title! [39] 5SSW World Tag Team Championship "The Queen of Professional Wrestling" Ashley Keith & "The Queen of Hearts" Danielle Sweetheart © vs. The Uprising [Talia Quinzel & Selina Svelte] Since winning the titles Ashley and Danielle had continued their feud across 5SSW and NYCW. Believe it or not they even managed a couple of successful defences against some 5SSW teams before imploding entirely, resulting in Danielle defeating Ashley in a singles match; Ashley would have her revenge in NYCW costing Danielle a match against Gear Head Grace. This match was booked as a result of... Well, people don't know why! The Uprising weren't the number one contenders in 5SSW but Commissioner Bomb pulled some strings. Even though Dani and Ashley hated each other they still wanted to retain and worked the match well, with Dani putting in a stellar performance. But The Uprising were a seasoned team and their team work kept them competitive-- Which frustrated Ashley and her tags with Dani became increasingly hard. After a particularly hard tag Dani gave Ashley a receipt on the shoulder which triggered a heated argument. The Uprising regrouped and Selina ripped Ashley off the apron and Talia caught Dani from behind with a clubbing blow and scored a crunching tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. In an impressive feat of strength Talia lifted Dani up into a 2nd, and then a 3rd back breaker and made the winning cover. Winners: AND NEW CHAMPIONS The Uprising via pin 15:43 [43] We cut to the backstage interview area where Dharma is standing by with Ronin3... Dharma Gregg, Foxxy Larue, Tameka Sky, Toni Parisi & Vinny Cruz Dharma: Please welcome my guests at this time: Ronin3. Foxxy, I understand you wanted this time to formally introduce the QAW faithful to your newest recruit? Foxxy: That’s right Dharma. I know that the simps in the locker room have watched our last couple of matches-- so they know the ass whooping that’s coming for them! But the simps at home, the “QAW faithful”, deserve to be educated… [Foxxy gestures at Dharma to interview Tameka] Dharma: Okay… Tameka Sky, why have you joined Ronin3? Tameka: Can you tell me who the first black women’s world champion was up in CWA… What about NOTBPW? Dharma: I can’t… Tameka: USPW? AAA? Cat caught your tongue? Dharma: I don’t know of any. Tameka: Exactly… I wanted to be a wrestler back in the day. But when I looked into it I didn’t see anyone who looked like me… Granted, I am 6ft’7 so no one really looks like me! But there was no black women on the major stage. And when you’re 16 and getting bullied every day for how you look, you don't want to step into a world where you would stand out even more. So instead I found basketball and I was embraced for who I was. I wouldn’t change those years for anything but all good things come to an end! When I was searching for what to do next I did some travelling and I ended up in this area; and I saw a poster for a QAW show and guess who I saw? Dharma: Foxxy Larue? Tameka: That’s right. And she was the World Champion! Do you know how inspiring it was to see her at the top like that? I went to see the show and that urge to wrestle, which I thought I had buried, returned with a vengeance. So, I vowed to go away, train, and return when the time was right… And that time is now. I’ve joined Ronin3 because I respect Foxxy Larue and what she represents. And I'm ready to break every last one of the bitches in the back to ensure that Ronin3 dominates this promotion once again. It's our time! Foxxy: You heard what she said; the fact is no one is safe from us any more. We're coming for everyone! Facts. Are. Facts. [54] Trios Match The Furies [Emma May, Honey Badger & Marie Punnen] vs. Simony Sentinel & 2 San Diego Girls [Coco Malloy & Izzy Quick] The former QAW World Champion was in action and she was not in a good mood. At all. And Emma insisted on wrestling most of the match and was clearly taking out her frustrations on her spirited opponents [who were selling very well for her]. Emma put an end to things with a triangle choke on Simony in the middle of the ring-- after the match Emma grabbed a camera and spoke to Suzanne directly. "You're going to need a miracle when I'm done with you!" Winners: The Furies via submission 10:29 [47] We cut to backstage as Little Miss Perfect timidly knocks on the Fallen Angels locker-room door [identified by the signage of course]. Christy opens the door... Little Miss Perfect & Christy Higgins Higgins: Oh, its you. Perfect: Hey bestie! It's, like, good to see you. I've been trying to get in touch with you and like-- Higgins: Yeah about that, things have just been hectic since winning the Shockwave championship! Perfect: Ya! Like, of course. Well, congratulations on the win. I'm glad that you won it instead of Darkness Cat...! I just wish you had told me about the Fallen Angels thing, it like, feels like something I could have been involved in! We're former AAA tag champions after all. Higgins: Totally! My bad. It's just that Suzanne wanted to keep it in a tight circle of trust. And then you lost the World Summit match and everyone was like "Perfect isn't good enough to be in the group!", but I stuck up for you. The problem is that you come across like a loser so what you need to do is string together some wins to impress the others. If that happens I'm convinced they'll let you join! Perfect: Oh! I didn't know that... Higgins: You have a match with Darkness Cat next, right? She's a QAW original so they'll definitely love it if you not only beat her, but embarrass her too! Perfect: How...? Higgins: Rip her mask off. Perfect: Isn't that, like, bad? Like, really bad? Higgins: Whatever, why do you care? Win that match and I'll put in a good word for you. Promise. Perfect: Okay... Higgins: Oh and another thing, you know that fake valley girl accent we used to do? It makes you sound stupid so you should probably stop... Good luck! [Christy slams the door in LMP's face] [27] Singles Match Little Miss Perfect vs. Darkness Cat A lot of pressure on LMP to prove herself to Christy in this match; maybe a bit too much pressure though as she kept making mistakes which the veteran Darkness capitalised on. JRO: AAA was an elite promotion and LMP showed great potential. But it looks as if jumping ship to QAW made her soft, this performance is not impressing me at all tonight. Garcia: She was the longest reigning Shockwave Champion in QAW history! LMP had a momentary advantage and hesitated before making an attempt to rip of Darkness' mask-- something which horrified the crowd. The referee admonished LMP severely leaving her looking sheepish. As Darkness readjusted her mask LMP went for a cross body but Cat side stepped it. As LMP clambered towards the ropes clutching her stomach; Darkness saw the opportunity and hit a 619 with a lot of speed knocking LMP back in front of the turnbuckle perfectly placed for the Black-Cat Moonsault. Winner: Darkness Cat via pin 08:10 [41] We cut to Dharma Gregg standing by with the former QAW World Tag Team Champions: Las Amazonas... Dharma Gregg, Pinky Perez & Mariana Torres Dharma: QAW faithful, please welcome my guests at this time, the former QAW Tag Team Champions: Las Amazonas! Can you tell us how you're feeling after Starshow? Pinky: I don't think I was prepared for how much that introduction would sting... "Former" champion has never hit my ear right. Mariana: My body is still sore. My head hurts from where I got hit in the head by own championship belt. And my pride is bruised. So we don't feel great Dharma, how about that? Dharma: Of course. You lost after Lilly & Rose used brass knuckles on The Experience. And after the match they rejected your show of respect by hitting you with the belts. Earlier tonight the Fallen Angels said this was part of a long term plan to destabilise QAW-- How do you respond to that? Pinky: Being a champion in pro-wrestling comes with a certain level of... Mierda. People are gunning for you! Obviously Lilly & Rose had a plan and they pulled it off. Congratulations mamas! But now the chase is on and tonight we have a rematch. We all know we're going to become 2 time champions tonight. Mariana: But you have to admit that Lilly & Rose have been manipulating us for a long time and I told you. Repeatedly! And you didn't believe me! Pinky: Mariana! I'm not going over this again. I have apologised for whatever role I inadvertantly played in this. What more do you want from me? [Mariana looks away] Dharma: Tonight is your shot to win back the titles. Are you on the same page? Pinky: We're on the same page-- [Pinky is interrupted by the appearance of The Experience] Lily Snyder & Ava Anderson "The Experience" Pinky: Whatever it is, we don't have time for it. Ava: Maybe if you had time for us to begin with you'd still be champions right now... Lily: You messed up. Ava: We've been telling everyone for a long time Lilly & Rose were fake and not to be trusted. And guess what? We were right! Pinky: Congratulations. What do you want? Ava: We're sure you're familiar with "the enemy of my enemy is my friend", right? Well, we'll have your back tonight and make sure Lilly & Rose don't pull the same stunt they pulled at Starshow with the brass knuckles... Mariana: And the catch is? Ava: No catch! But we will get the first title opportunity when you become champions again. Sounds fair to us. Pinky: We don't trust Lilly & Rose and we certainly don't trust you either. Ever since we arrived in QAW you've been making our lives difficult. So thanks but no thanks. [Las Amazonas leave] Ava: Big mistake ladies. Lily: Huge. [36] QAW World Tag Team Championship Las Amazonas [Pinky Perez & Mariana Torres] vs. Lilly & Rose © Rematches are not an automatic right in QAW but Las Amazonas made the request as they weren't pinned in the triple threat; and Lilly & Rose welcomed the challenge. After all, they were fighting champions. Pinky came out with the COTT Women's World Championship and commentary hyped up her almost year long reign-- and Mariana seemed a little put off by it. Both teams put on an early MOTY contender which built upon their previous interactions nicely with added new twists. Particularly with Lilly & Rose now erring on the rudo side they retained their high speed offence but delivered in a show boating manner instead. Pinky was putting in a star making performance and after stringing together some moves she took to the top rope. As she did Kate pulled the referee out of position which provided cover for a mystery woman to knock Pinky off the top rope with an awkward landing. JRO: Who was that? Did she come from under the ring? Garcia: I know that hair from a mile away-- it's Maribel Mercado! The former QAW Shockwave champion smiled deviously as she skipped to the back stopping to strike a pose at the top of the ramp. The referee checked on Pinky who was clutching her shoulder-- Perez insisted she could continue but when Debbie went to grab her arm she shrieked out in agony. The referee immediately called a finish to the match for Pinky's protection. Winners: Lilly & Rose via stoppage 19:23 [60] Show Rating: 41 KyTeran: 8/8 100% Herrbear: 7/8 88% Mokoa: 7/8 88% SMW88: 6/8 75% Puto: 5/8 63% I thought I had everyone fooled with The Uprising win until I reached KyTeran's predictions last...

KyTeran Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Most times I wouldn't predict the champs to lose so soon after winning the belts, but it felt right with the story that you're telling with Danielle and Ashley to have them drop the belt due to their issues with each other. Can't wait to see what you have in store for your future shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full disclosure, I had planned for them to hold onto it for a bit longer but I left it in the hands of the AI and The Uprising took the belts on their 3rd defence in 5SSW... Which I think is fate that the AAA team just happened to do that... Edited September 23, 2022 by Rhysrob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhysrob Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 (edited) QAW Bombshells airing on QAW.com Trios Match The Furies [Emma, Honey & Marie] vs. Die Fledermaus, Olivia Diamond & Vicki Kyle Another strong showing from the former world champ Emma May who directed her team to victory with vicious precision. It was clear she had no time for mistakes from her partners and made a point to demonstrate to them "how its done!". A phrase Olivia Diamond wouldn't soon forget as she was dragged into a triangle choke hold and forced to tap. Post match Emma hogged the camera warning Suzanne Brazzle she was coming for her as Honey & Marie looked on with cold expressions. Winners: The Furies via submission 10:19 [40]This got the show off to a strong start and the crowd hot. Emma stood out. We cut to Commissioner Bomb's office where both the commissioner and Suzanne Brazzle are standing by...Bomb: Welcome to my office QAW faithful! Brazzle: And any AAA fans out there...Bomb: Of course! Suzanne, I wanted to invite you here to publicly congratulate you on becoming QAW World Champion at Starshow. A huge achievement. And as Commissioner of QAW I want you to know that I'm thrilled to finally be working with someone of your calibre. Brazzle: Thank you Commissioner. Those words mean a lot coming from you. But I wanted to use this time to address Pamela Rojo, if you don't mind? [Bomb nods] At San Antonio Invasion, after defending my title for the first time she felt the need to interrupt my celebration and lay her hands on me. Totally classless and bitter, precisely the behaviour you'd expect from a QAW 'veteran'... I understand why you're bitter though. I used you and tossed you aside like the trash you are. But in my defence? You should be used to it. As far as I'm concerned you're back of the line until you earn it... So, at Big City Breakdown how about you prove yourself against the submission specialist Paige Croft? Bomb: That sounds like a fantastic suggestion Suzanne. I'll make it official![39] Tag MatchSinda Sarai & Air Raid Syren vs. Maribel Mercado & '100% Rudo' Raquel Alvarado A strong return to QAW from Maribel Mercado who many thought her appearance at World Summit was a one off. Maribel meshed well with Raquel's hyper-rudo antics and was clearly enjoying humiliating her opponents. Many fans were wondering if Las Amazonas would make an appearance after Maribel cost them the tag titles but their no show further fueled rumours that Pinky was in-fact legitimately injured. Things came to a finish after Maribel delivered an impressive leg drop from the top rope onto Sinda's throat-- commentary noted it was dubbed 'The Money Drop'. Winners: Maribel & Raquel via pin 14:23[35] The feed cuts back to Commissioner Bomb's office where she is sat behind the desk alone...Bomb: As a former tag team champion I have a deep appreciation for tag team wrestling. One of my favourite ideas as Commissioner was the tag team number one contender's tournament I held last year. The new champions, Lilly & Rose, have informed me that they went to defend against the very best-- So why reinvent the wheel? This is a perfect opportunity to gather 8 of the best tag teams in the world to fight it out for an opportunity at the coveted QAW World Tag Team titles. Now... Let me make a few more phone calls to some old friends...[30] Singles match QAW Shockwave ChampionshipChristy Higgins © [Fallen Angels] vs. Alexis Lee Littlefeather [Storm Front] There was a lot of pressure riding on Christy heading into the match as her stablemates had each successfully made their first defences at San Antonio Invasion. But, if she was feeling that pressure it didn't show as she put in a reassuring performance against a QAW veteran. Although the crowd didn't really buy into Alexis as a credible contender due to the fact she was clearly slowing down in the ring it was still regarded as one of the better Shockwave bouts in the last year. The match came to it's conclusion after a crisp 'Florida Upswing' [Sliced Bread#2]Winner: Christy Higgins via pin 14:09[45]Show Rating: 40 The Road to Big City Breakdown continues...
