"Femme Fatales" TV Taping Number 57 (Week 114)

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, my co-hostesses with the mostest! Girls, we have a strongly booked hour tonight!"

Renee Young: "We sure do! We have the 'Fatal Four-Way' for the Tag Team Championship that should provide quite a few fireworks!"

Melissa Santos: "We'll also see Charlotte Flair defend the Heavyweight Championship against Mila Naniki!"

Miceli: "Plus, in our first match, 'Angel Heart' will defend the Bantamweight Tag Team Championship against 'Actwres Girl'Z' Saori Anou and Tae Honma! We're looking forward to all of these matches, so, why wait! Let's get it started up in here!"

Match One ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Bantamweight Tag Team Championship ~ "Enjeruhāto (Angel Heart)"--Jurina Matsui & Shiroma Miru vs. "Actwres Girl'Z"--Saori Anou & Tae Honma with Mizuka Arai

Before the bell, Anou announced that "Actwres Girl'Z" had their invited guests, Inko Haku, Maki Kumai, and Mao Kaneshiro, in the front row of ringside for this match (pictured respectively):

This was a tremendous back-and-forth struggle that saw both teams match hold for hold. The action was quick and crisp as both teams attempted to impose their will on the other. eventually, the champions gained the deciding advantage at the end. They hit their double-team finisher, "Angel Wings" (double "Missile Dropkick" from opposing corners on the front and back of an opponent) on Anou, as she crumpled to the mat. Before they could make the cover, Haku, Kumai, and Kaneshiro jumped over the ringside barrier and into the ring for the attack, prompting the referee to ring the bell immediately.

Winners and STILL NWA: Femme Fatales Bantamweight Tag Team Champions = "Enjeruhāto" by disqualification in 12:28

Miceli: "It looks like those three aren't just guests! They have jumped 'Angel Heart' and are putting the boots to them!"

Young: "It's a six-on-two mugging in there right now!"

"Actwres Girl'Z" left their prey laying and stood tall as Anou grabbed a microphone.

Saori Anou: "Nakano-mura, watashitachi o sara seru to omottanode, watashitachi wa yowaku natte shimaimashita! Watashitachi wa kore made ijō ni tsuyoku natte imasu! Korera no 3ttsu wa atarashī mitōshidesu! 'Actwres Girl' Z' wa kore made ijō ni ī yo (Tam Nakano, you thought leaving us would make us weak! We are stronger than ever! These three are our new prospects! 'Actwres Girl'Z' will be better than ever)!"

Miceli: "Whoa! A clear message was sent to Tam Nakano, who left 'Actwres Girl'Z' in favor of 'Oedo Tai' a couple of weeks ago!"

Young: "What a statement!"

Santos: "Saori Anou means business and she has her group fired up and bigger than ever before!"

Miceli: "Fans, we need to take a commercial break. We'll be back with more in just a minute!"

Miceli: "Fans, we're back! Before we go to our Heavyweight Championship match, we wanted to take you to a sit-down interview conducted earlier today by Laura Cruz."

The scene shifted to an empty arena, where Laura Cruz sat with Mila Naniki.

Laura Cruz: "Hello, everyone! I'm 'Locker Room Lovely' Laura Cruz. Normally, I'm bringing you all the latest news and gossip from Femme Fatales. Well, today I'll be bringing you this exclusive interview with a member of the 'Booty Brigade,' and one-half of 'Spoiled Brats,' none other than the 'Booty Monster' herself, Mila Naniki. Thank you for joining me today!"

Mila Naniki: "My pleasure, Laura! By the way, if you ever decide you want to wrestle, we'd reserve a spot for you in 'The Booty Brigade!' You got junk in the trunk for days!"

Cruz: (laughs) "Well, thanks! I do have training. I just haven't had the opportunity to use it yet! And yes, I was blessed with this backside and I do a lot of squats to maintain it! So, you are wrestling Charlotte Flair for the Heavyweight Championship tonight in what is your biggest match to date in singles competition. What are your thoughts heading into that match?"

Naniki: "No doubt this is my biggest singles match. I love my girls, don't get me wrong! Teaming with my best friend Aria Blake is the best time I've had in my career. But, I'd be lying if I said I didn't want this win. All the girls in our group want each other to succeed. If I win the Heavyweight Championship tonight, it raises the profile of the whole, rather than just me as the one. So, they're behind me and I'm ready to compete! Charlotte is one of the best in the world and her heritage comes from the best of all time. It's not going to be easy, but I'm ready for her."

Cruz: "Speaking of heritage, many people may not know about your background. First of all, you're only twenty years old, but you have almost two years experience behind you. Also, your of Puerto Rican and Polynesian ancestry. That reputation on both fronts precedes you. There have been so many Puerto Rican and Polynesian stars in the history of pro wrestling. You're following along that same path."

Naniki: "Yes. But, I'm also forging my own path. Considering that the vast majority of Puerto Rican and Polynesian wrestlers have been men over the years, I'm trying to represent for the ladies!"

Cruz: "Do you think that your inexperience hampers you at all, especially in a match like tonight?"

Naniki: "Obviously, I don't know everything about wrestling that I will eventually. So, there are some drawbacks to being new in the game and in such a big spot. But, my youth brings energy, excitement, and the unknown. I'm harder to scout because there is less tape on me than there is on Charlotte. I could study her up one side and down the other. She, on the other hand, doesn't know what to expect out of me, especially in Femme Fatales. To this point, I've pretty much only wrestled tag matches, so she hasn't seen my full arsenal yet. I've got some tricks up my sleeve she's going to see."

Cruz: "I know we're all looking forward to seeing what you have tonight against one of the most athletically gifted women ever to grace a ring."

Naniki: "I can promise you I'm going to shock the world tonight!"

Cruz: "Thank you, Mila. Madusa, back to you."

Miceli: "Well, we're about see what the young Mila Naniki has to offer! Let's go to the ring!"

Match Two ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Heavyweight Championship ~ Charlotte Flair with "Lass Kicker" Becky Lynch vs. "Booty Monster" Mila Naniki with Aria Blake

This match was better than it had a right to be. Naniki clearly looked to prove something to herself and the world. If anything, she more than gained the respect of the champion. Charlotte should have dominated this match, on paper. But, she did not. Mila was ready for everything Charlotte threw at her. Naniki had the advantage in the late stages, even hitting her "Booty Call" finisher. But, Charlotte was too close to the ropes and got a leg over the bottom one before the three-count. Charlotte managed to toss Mila through the ropes and out to the floor. This is where the match took a turn. Charlotte draped herself on the referee while Lynch struck Mila in the left knee with a steel chair. She then threw Naniki back into the ring as Aria Blake gave chase. Charlotte was able to cinch in the "Figure Eight Leglock" and get the submission victory after that.

Winner and STILL NWA: Femme Fatales Heavyweight Champion = Charlotte Flair by submission in 18:47

Miceli: "It took her nearly twenty minutes and some outside interference, but Charlotte escapes with her title intact!"

Young: "Mila Naniki proved to the world that she belongs! She took Charlotte to the limit!"

Santos: "If they'd have been in the middle of the ring when she hit 'Booty Call,' I believe we'd have a new champion!"

Miceli: "That's poor ring awareness, a rookie mistake. She should have dragged her to the center after she hit it. But hey, she's learning and learning quickly! We have to take a break. We'll be back with the huge four-way main event next!"

Miceli: "We're back! It's time to decide the Tag Team Championship! Let's go back to the ring and the beautiful Jessica Rose!"

Match Three ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Tag Team Championship ~ "Fatal Four-Way" match ~ "Joshi Mafia"--Hikaru Shida & Syuri with "The Boss" Manami Toyota vs. "The Apocalypse"--"Your Soul's Tormentor" MsChif & "Death Machine" Jessicka Havok with KillHer Bea vs. "Aussie Fight Club"--Demi Bennett & Kellyanne with Savannah Summers vs. "Foreign Exchange"--Julia "WillKilla" Ho & Tay Melo with Nicole Zhao

This was a wild match. There's no other way to describe it. The seconds on the outside for each team provided an extra wrinkle and proved to be a huge distraction for referee Summer Rae. She had enough trouble keeping up with the bout itself, much less admonishing each extracurricular participant for some form of constant interference. The bugaboo of multi-person and multi-team matches is the no disqualification nature. A referee cannot disqualify a single entity due to the fact that there are multiple entities that are affected. Rae finally had enough and dismissed every second from the match. As Referee Rae was making sure they all four went to the locker room, the action continued in the ring. Shida and Syuri dropped Melo and had her pinned for several seconds. Eventually, Havok made the save. This brought in Syuri, which brought in MsChif, and those two teams spilled onto the floor, leaving "Aussie Fight Club" and "Foreign Exchange" to do battle in the ring. Kellyanne rushed in and was met with a "Super Kick" from Ho. Tay got up and she and Julia uncorked a double "Spinning Heel Kick" on Kellyanne. Demi Bennett rushed into the ring, but Ho "low bridged" her. Referee Rae saw the pin on Kellyanne and slid back into the ring to make the count.

Winners and NEW NWA: Femme Fatales Tag Team Champions = "Foreign Exchange" by pinfall in 25:04

Miceli: "We got new champs, and 'Joshi Mafia' didn't even figure into the fall!"

Young: "That's the risk of a multi-team match! Wow! What a chaotic finish!"

Santos: "The least experienced team in the match just grabbed their biggest victory ever! Shida and Syuri are furious at Summer Rae, because they had Tay Melo pinned!"

Shida and Syuri absolutely berated Referee Summer Rae after the match. Syuri shoved Rae, which led to Rae shoving her back. Shida then blindsided Rae and they both laid the boots to her until "Foreign Exchange" came back in to make the save.

Miceli: "That's going to cost them! Commissioner Aikawa does not stand for our referees being abused like that! 'Joshi Mafia' has always acted like they are above the law, but I guarantee Yuzuki will have a response for that! Fans, we're all out of time for this week. Please join us next Thursday on TNT for more Femme Fatales! For Renee Young and Melissa Santos, I'm Madusa Miceli! Keep on rockin' and rollin'!"
