"Femme Fatales" TV Taping Number 37 (Week 73)

Madusa Miceli: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the hottest hour on television, Femme Fatales! I'm your hostess, Madusa Miceli. With me are Renee Young and Melissa Santos! Girls, we've got a great one tonight!"

Renee Young: "Yes, we'll see a new Television Champion crowned as Hikaru Shida and ACT Yasukawa go for the held-up title with two referees and everyone from each woman's group banned from ringside!"

Melissa Santos: "We also have a Heavyweight Championship match, as Jessicka Havok defends against Zeuxis!"

Miceli: "And, we have a Bantamweight 'Battle Royal!' It's going to be an action-packed sixty minutes, so let's get to it with our first match!"

Match One ~ "International Bad Girls Club"--Tenille Averil & Toni Storm with Brooke Adams vs. "Seven Star Sisters"--Misaki Ohata & "Lady Destroyer" Hiroyo Matsumoto

This one did not last long, as all four women ended up in the ring at the same time, brawling like alley cats. The referee was knocked down twice, once by either team. She had no choice but to call for the bell.

Winners = double disqualification in 6:14

Miceli: "Wow! That was a fight!"

Young: "They went at it like madwomen!"

Santos: "The officials still can't break them up!"

Both teams fought to the backstage area before being separated.

Miceli: "We'll be back in just a moment!"

Miceli: "We're back! Let's go to the ring for  our Heavyweight Championship contest!"

Match Two ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Heavyweight Championship ~ "Death Machine" Jessicka Havok with "Barbed Wire Beauty" LuFisto vs. Zeuxis with Sexy Flor

This was a fantastic match, with Havok using her size and strength to try and ground Zeuxis, who used her lucha expertise to keep Havok moving. Zeuxis made some headway for a good portion of the match. But, she got caught trying to fly. She leapt off the top rope and was caught in mid-air and dropped with "The Harlot Slayer."

Winner and STILL NWA: Femme Fatales Heavyweight Champion = Jessicka Havok by pinfall in 13:02

Miceli: "Jessicka Havok continues to dominate the Heavyweight division!"

Young: "Zeuxis put up a fight, but it wasn't good enough in the end!"

Santos: "Is there anyone in this division who will take Jessicka Havok?!"

Just then, the newest member of "Belleza Escondida," Sanely, ran to the ring and attacked Havok from behind with a steel chair. Sanely is an impressive physical specimen, who is also a bodybuilder. She laid Havok out with multiple chair shots to the head and back. LuFisto tried to intervene, and was even joined by MsChif, but the rest of "Belleza Escondida" overwhelmed them.

Miceli: "Wow! Sexy Flor's group just sent a strong message to 'The Apocalypse!' That Sanely is a beast!"

Young: "She might be able to match strength with Havok if they met one-on-one! She has muscles on top of muscles!"

Santos: "I've seen Sanely in Mexico for years! She is a tough, strong, and beautiful woman, and she has a mean streak a mile long!"

Miceli: "I can guarantee Havok will be looking to give Sanely her receipt for that attack! Fans, we'll be back in a moment!"

Miceli: "We're back from the break and it's time for the Bantamweight 'Battle Royal!' The winner will receive a future shot at the title!"

Match Three ~ Bantamweight "Battle Royal" ~ Moeka Haruhi vs. Makoto vs. Miyako Matsumoto vs. Maki Narumiya vs. "Happy Maker" Aoi Kizuki vs. Korahu Hinata vs. Starfire vs. Mystique vs. Saori Anou vs. Natsumi Maki vs. Hiromi Mimura vs. Tae Honma vs. Mika Rotundo vs. Abbie Belle Windham vs. Kayla Armstrong vs. Dakota (Runnels) Rhodes vs. Ariel Toombs vs. Brittany Page vs. Bianca Carelli vs. Merissa (Rood) Rude vs. Alexandra Hart vs. Hailey Apter vs. Jessica Torres vs. Rachael Ellering vs. Sherilyn Guerrero vs. Whiplash

There was a definite logjam to begin with. Twenty-six ladies in the ring at once was chaotic, frenetic, and busy. One by one, they began to get dumped over the top rope. The graduates of the "Show Time Dojo" were particularly impressive, with Abbie Belle Windham (the youngest at eighteen), Merissa Rude, Rachael Ellering, and Whiplash (Christina Turner) lasting longer than many of the vets. The final four were Makoto, Tae Honma, Rude, and Whiplash. Rude and Whiplash were going at it in the corner when Makoto dumped them both, leaving she and Honma to battle for the championship opportunity. Bantamweight Champion Sumire Natsu and her bodyguard Kaho Kobayashi, who were at ringside throughout the match, approached the ring apron. Honma had Makoto against the ropes and was trying to topple her over. The referee was behind waiting to ring the bell for the final elimination. Outside of the referee's view, Kobayashi grabbed Makoto by the right arm and yanked her as Honma was lifting her legs and struggling with her. Makoto then tumbled over the top, giving the match to Honma, who appeared oblivious (along with the referee) to the interference.

Winner = Tae Honma in a total match time of 11:32

Honma celebrated as Makoto stalked Natsu and Kobayashi.

Miceli: "I don't think Tae Honma knows she won with outside interference! Clearly, the referee is unaware too!"

Young: "Congratulations to Tae Honma, who fought hard to win this match. But, there was clear intent by Natsu and Kobayashi to ensure that Makoto did not win the 'Battle Royal!'"

Santos: "And, Makoto is fired up about it! She chased off Sumire and Kaho, who are nowhere to be found!"

Miceli: "We can only assume that Sumire Natsu considers Makoto a bigger threat to her title than Tae Honma! But, she better not sleep on Tae! That girl is dangerous! Fans, we'll be back with our TV Title main event, next!"

Miceli: "We're back and it's time for the main event, with television time remaining!"

Match Four ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Television Championship (vacant) ~ two assigned referees with "Joshi Mafia" & "Oedo Tai" banned from ringside ~ Hikaru Shida vs. ACT Yasukawa

This match was a master class in stiff, martial arts style offense. These two went at it for a half-hour, beating the stuffing out of each other. Yasukawa looked to end it with an "Avalanche Death Valley Driver," but Shida wriggled out and reversed into an "Avalanche Falcon Arrow" for the win.

Winner and NEW NWA: Femme Fatales Television Champion = Hikaru Shida in 31:00

Miceli: "Hikaru Shida has done it! She has become the first ever three-time TV Champion in our history! Well deserved win!"

Young: "That was one of the hardest-hitting women's matches I've ever seen! Both ladies brought it tonight!"

Santos: "Wow! All I can say is wow! How did they keep on coming for thirty minutes while they were dropping bombs like that?!"

Miceli: "Congratulations to Hikaru Shida! The celebration is on as 'Joshi Mafia' has come to the ring! Fans, we're out of time! Please join us again next Thursday on TNT for Femme Fatales! And, don't forget, next weekend is the 'Big Gold' Platinum Anniversary Tournament! Someone is walking away with a beautiful belt! For Renee Young and Melissa Santos, I'm Madusa Miceli! Keep on rockin' and rollin'!"
