Bobby Beverly issued an open challenge that was answered by Jordan Blade and we have our main event for the show. Jordan opens the match by laying strikes into Bobby and he exits the ring. Jordan chases after him, but Bobby slams her into the ring. The Bev continues to hammer Jordan with strikes all around the ringside area until Jordan turns the tables and slams Bobby’s head into a table. She then puts The Bev on a chair and hits him in the head.  Jordan celebrates a little too much and The Bev slams her head into the wall then walks her to the other side of the room and Jordan fights back, but The Bev slams her against the wall. The Bev then picks Jordan up and slams her on the ring apron. He sets up a door in the corner of the ring. Jordan chases after him and gets put through the door.

Wednesday

Fight Life “Numba One”

Fight Life World Championship: Masha Slamovich (c) def Janai Kai

This is Masha’s first Fight Life title defense.  They do some very impressive mat work early on. Masha seems to always be a step ahead of Kai. Kai is finally able to get the advantage using her lethal kicks. They have a really nice exchange of kicks with Masha getting the upper hand with a scorpion kick. Masha locks in a rear naked choke, which she has used to defeat pretty much everyone she has been in the ring with, but Kai is able to reverse it and lock in a choke of her own. Masha locks it in again, but this time Kai answers with a reversal into a full nelson slam. Kai gives Masha a barrage of kicks but Masha ducks the jumping kick and locks in the rear naked choke and this time she has it really locked and an Kai has nothing she can do but tap out. This was a hell of a battle, but Masha once again proved why she is one of the top wrestlers in the world.

This infuriates Freya and Freya attacks Tiffany, throwing her in the ring to start the match. Freya is relentless in her attack on Tiffany until she misses a cannonball in the corner. Tiffany uses this opportunity to hit Freya with a crossbody off the ropes. Tiffany then rolls to the outside of the ring where Aaron is at and takes off Aaron’s glasses while she is flirting with him. Freya goes after her and the fight goes back in the ring. Aaron accidentally trips Freya as he is blindly searching for his glasses, which gives Tiffany the opportunity to hit Freya with Eat the Feet for the win.

B3CCA was able to counter Bayne’s power with her intelligence and athleticism, as she ran from the stage area and took Bayne into the ringpost with a rana. This was an incredible match by both wrestlers. Bayne not only showed off her power throughout the match, but she also showed her athleticism in being able to keep up with B3CCA. B3CCA was once again able to show how tough she was, by withstanding all the powerful shots from Bayne and coming back with shots of her own.
