"Femme Fatales" TV Taping Number 47 (Week 93)

Madusa Miceli: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the hottest hour on television, Femme Fatales! I'm your hostess, Madusa Miceli. With me are my fiery co-hostesses, Renee Young and Melissa Santos! Girls, it's gonna be wild tonight!"

Renee Young: "That's right! We have some debuts on the program, as well as a Women's Championship match featuring Io Shirai against AJ Lee!"

Melissa Santos: "That's a dream match-up if I've ever seen one!"

Miceli: "Yep! That will be our main event! But, first, we have five new signees set to debut on this program! Let's get to it!"

Match One ~ Miyako Matsumoto vs. Shiroma Miru

The nineteen-year-old Miru was impressive, flying all over the ring against Matsumoto, who's all heart in the ring. Miru got the victory after a top-rope "Guillotine Knee Drop."

Winner = Shiroma Miru by pinfall in 6:34

Miceli: "Impressive victory by the youngster Miru!"

Young: "She has a real future here!"

Santos: "She's a fiery and beautiful young lady! I'm looking forward to seeing more out of her!"

Miceli: "Fans, we have to take a break. But, when we return, we'll be straight back to the ring for more first-time competitors!"

Miceli: "We're back! Let's keep this train rollin'!"

Match Two ~ "Mala Chicas Culo (Bad A** Chicas)"--"Dark Angel" Sarah Stock, Thea Trinidad, & Ivelisse Velez vs. "International Exchange"--Julia Ho, Nicole Zhao, & Tae Melo

This was a highly competitive match-up. Stock and company are as tough as nails and always put up a strong fight. These three international superstars really impressed, though. Melo hit all of her opponents with various Judo throws. Ho used a strong grappling game to ground and pound her foes. Zhao used her compact, yet powerful frame and her Ju-Jitsu background to subdue her rivals. Ultimately, Melo trapped Trinidad in a "Fujiwara Armbar" while Zhao and Ho kept Stock and Velez at bay. Trinidad squirmed and fought to get to the ropes, but Melo had a firm grip in center ring. Trinidad's elbow was contorting precariously, so she had no choice but to tap out.

Winners = "International Exchange" by submission in 8:16

Miceli: "Wow! Those girls can fight!"

Young: "Every one of them has a martial arts background and it showed! They are fierce!"

Santos: "And, they beat three of the baddest chicas around! That's a feat in itself!"

Miceli: "we gotta take another break. But, up next is the debut of the 185-pound Amazon, Alpha Female!"

Miceli: "We're back from the break and ready to keep this debut party going! Back to the ring!"

Match Three ~ Alpha Female vs. "Lady Destroyer" Hiroyo Matsumoto

This was a slugfest. Both of these women are heavy-hitters. Matsumoto is no small lady, but she was in comparison with the muscular and beefy Alpha Female, who was as chiseled as we've seen her in the NWA. Hiroyo went for her "Hiroyo Stone" finish, but Alpha reversed it into the "Omega Slam" for the pin.

Winner = Alpha Female by pinfall in 9:43

After the match, Taya, Sexy Star, Queen Maya, and manager Lana confronted Alpha.

Taya: "So, you think you're the new giant around here? We beg to differ!"

Alpha Female: "Oh, does Queen Maya want some?! Come and get it!"

Taya: "Oh, Maya will have her day. But, she wasn't the giant we we're talking about."

Just then, a woman came out of the crowd and into the ring. She was beautiful, but she must have been at least 6'5." She and Alpha had a stare down. The mysterious woman started to back away, then attacked Alpha with a lightning quick kick to the head. Taya and her crew joined in the four-on-one beating until "The Four Horsewomen" hit the ring for the save. After things cleared out, Alpha and Charlotte Flair had a brief stare down before Charlotte extended her hand. Alpha cautiously shook it and the fans applauded the union.

Miceli: "We know that Alpha Female and Charlotte Flair have a long and brutal history with one another. But, it looks like they may have buried the hatchet here tonight."

Young: "That may be bad news for the 'Queens.'"

Santos: "This could be an interesting rivalry developing."

Miceli: "well, it looks like we've seen six debuts tonight instead of five. We need to find out who that huge mystery woman is with 'Reinas Rudas.' We'll be back in a moment with our big main event!"

Miceli: "We are back! Lilian Garcia managed to track down Taya, Sexy Star, and company. Let's go to them now."

Lilian Garcia: "I'm here with Taya, Sexy Star, Queen Maya, Lana, and a very tall woman who's yet to be identified. Can anyone shed some light on the subject?"

Taya: "This lady right here is Katya! She is six-foot-five of sexy, deadly assassin! She has a black belt in Karate and Taekwondo and is a World Champion kickboxer. Our good friend and manager Lana has brought her over from Russia to join forces with us to take out the entire roster of NWA: Femme Fatales.

Garcia: "Katya, do you have any words?"

Katya: "YA slomayu ikh vsekh (I will break them all)! I am the super athlete! I am the dominator! I dare anyone to face me!"

Garcia: "Ok. Well, any final words from the group?"

Taya: "We're not just another group, Lilian. We are the queens of this company. From now on, you can refer to us as 'Reinas Rudas Quatros (Four Mean Queens)!'"

Garcia: "There you have it. 'Four Mean Queens,' now featuring the six-foot-five Katya. Back to you, Madusa."

Miceli: "Things just got interesting. I know of Katya now that she's been introduced. She's the first and only female ever who was asked to join the famed 'Blackzillians' MMA crew. She's fierce. She challenged Gabi Garcia to an MMA fight and Gabi flat avoided her. She's bad, ladies! She's bad!"

Young: "Well, she literally dared anyone on the roster to face her. At six-five, she's easily the largest athlete we have."

Santos: "Actually, at six-foot-five, she's one of the largest athletes Jordan Richards has signed to either of his companies!"

Miceli: "Things certainly are heating up around here! Speaking of which, new Women's Champion Io Shirai is set to make her first televised defense against perennial title contender AJ Lee! That match is next, right after this break!"

Miceli: "We're back and ready for championship action! Wait a minute! We're receiving word that something is going on in the back! A cameraman has been dispatched to the locker room!"

The scene cutaway to the dressing room area, where "The Asylum" was attacking Ladies Trios Champions Matsui Jurina, Miyu Yamashita, and Reika Saiki. They left them laying on their way to the ring.

Match Four ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Women's Championship ~ Io Shirai with "The Boss" Manami Toyota vs. AJ Lee with "Crazy" Mary Dobson and Ruby Riot

This was a phenomenal match between two of the best female wrestlers of the last decade. They went toe-to-toe, hold for hold, counter for counter. Twenty minutes in, there was no clear dominant wrestler. Lee went for the "Black Widow," but Shirai fought it off. She then "Dropkicked" Lee, which sent her sprawling into the corner. Io then hit the "Shinkansen Attack," which left Lee defenseless. Io climbed the ropes, preparing for her vaunted "Moonsault." Before she could leap, Dobson hopped onto the apron to distract her. The referee went to admonish Dobson, which gave Riot time to slip a foreign object in to Lee. Shirai leapt off the top rope onto Dobson, sending her crashing to the floor. Io then got back into the ring. As soon as she approached Lee, she was struck by the object, which knocked her out cold. Lee covered for the pinfall.

Winner and NEW NWA: Femme Fatales Women's Champion = AJ Lee by pinfall in 22:10

When the referee went to present the title belt to AJ and raise her hand, she saw the object still wrapped around Lee's right hand. The referee grabbed the object, examined it, and then called for the bell once again. She then raised Io's hand, signaling the disqualification of Lee.

Winner and STILL NWA: Femme Fatales Women's Champion = Io Shirai by disqualification in 22:10

Miceli: "AJ almost stole one, but she's so crazy, she forgot to get rid of those brass knucks!"

Young: "It's a good thing! If she had hidden them, she'd be walking out with the title right now!"

Santos: "Io narrowly avoided a very quick title reign there!"

Miceli: "Fans, we're down to the wire on time here. Please join us again next Thursday on TNT for more Femme Fatales! For Renee Young and Melissa Santos, I'm Madusa Miceli! Keep on rockin' and rollin'!"

As the episode closed, the scene cut to Commissioner Yuzuli Aikawa's office. NWA World Women's Champion Kairi Hojo approached and knocked. She went in and demanded a match: "Watashi wa raishū,`Ken' o' shitai! Karera to pātonā o `Threedom!' Ni taishite matchi sa seru (I want 'Ken'o' next week! Make a match with them and a partner against 'Threedom')!"

Yuzuki Aikawa: "Karera ga pātonā o mitsukeru koto ga dekireba, matchi ga okorimasu (If they can find a partner, the match will happen)."
