"Femme Fatales" TV Taping Number 78 (Week 156)

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 had a lot of changes around here recently. We're going to address some of those tonight!"

Renee Young: "That's right, Duce! The brand new Impact Tag Team Champions, 'Fly Kicks,' will be here to defend those beautiful title belts against former Ladies Night Ultra Champs 'Fire-n-Nice!'"

Melissa Santos: "Also, we've had some faction changes that we will discuss and we'll interview some of those members tonight!"

Miceli: "Our main event will feature six-woman action, as Becky Lynch, Mercedes KV, and Bayley Rose take on the women who took their championships, a very unusual threesome in 'Sadistic Tails' and Priscilla Kelly! That should be a barnburner! But first, we have some Bantamweight action! Let's go to the ring!"

Match One ~ Saki Kashima & The Starlight Kid vs. "Team Crazy Cute" (Maki Itoh & "Popping Sugar Rabbit" Mizuki)

This was the debut match for Maki Itoh, who was brought in by Commissioner Yuzuki Aikawa as a replacement for "Cuddle Bunny" Rena Kato (traded). Aikawa felt that young Mizuki needed an edge and that a more aggressive partner would do the trick. This pairing seemed ill fated at first, as Mizuki was intimidated by her partner's frenetic style and demeanor. However, as the match progressed, she seemed to become a bit less tentative. Itoh was right at home, taking the fight to the Cruiserweight Champion and her high-flying counterpart. However, Maki's aggression got the best of her, when she shoved down referee Karen Jarrett and was disqualified.

Winners = Saki Kashima and The Starlight Kid by disqualification in 10:09

Miceli: "Great showing by Saki and Stralight, but I was really impressed by the first of Maki Itoh! That young lady is crazy!"

Young: "She certainly commands attention! Mizuki is not used to that!"

Santos:: "She'll have to get on board the crazy train, or Maki Itoh's going to leave her at the station!"

Miceli: "Yep! Fans, we'll take a quick break. We'll be back with much more action in three minutes!"

Miceli: "We're back! As we said at the top of the hour, there have been some faction changes recently. Notably, Lana Austin has left the group she founded, 'Peach Punch,' and has joined her UK mates in the former 'International Bad Girls Club.' They are now called 'UK Connection.' Not to be outdone, 'Peach Punch' has undergone a makeover. Mila Naniki has gone to her Hispanic roots and is now known as Salina de la Renta. She and 'Spoiled Brats' partner Aria Blake are leading the group. They've also added some new members. Let's have them tell you about it.

The scene shifted to a pre-recorded interview from "Spoiled Brats."

Salina de la Renta: "So, by now you've all heard the news. Lana Austin has moved on. Well, I say good riddance! Her fat a** was dead weight anyway! Now that she's out of the way and Aria and I can run this group as we see fit, we've made some big changes!"

Aria: "First of all, we're changing the name of the group. 'Peach Punch' is out! I always hated that name!"

de la Renta: "Me too, girl! From now on, we will be known as 'B.O.O.T.Y.,' B-O-O-T-Y! That stands for 'Beauties Obsessed with Owning This Yard!' We're going to take over NWA: Femme Fatales, the way it should have been a long time ago!"

Blake: "And, we're proud to announce that we've added two new members! Joining Salina, Brandi, and myself, are Kaci Lennox and Vanessa Marie!"

(Brandi Lauren, Kaci Lennox, and Vanessa Marie stepped into the picture)

de la Renta: "You ain't never seen a collection of assets like this in one place. Femme Fatales, get ready! Because, it's 'B.O.O.T.Y.' time!"

(All five ladies turned their derrieres toward the camera and walked away)

Miceli: "Oh my! 'B.O.O.T.Y.?!' There are some big changes going on around here! Kaci Lennox and Vanessa Marie are two talented young ladies! They should fit in nicely with the rest of the group! I'm sure we'll be hearing more from them in the coming weeks! Fans, let's go back to the ring for the first ever defense of the Impact Tag Team Championship!"

Match Two ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Impact Tag Team Championship ~ "Fly Kicks" (Dakota Kai & Nixon Newell) vs. "Fire-n-Nice" (Britt Baker & Chelsea Green)

"Fly Kicks" is a dynamic team. The fans have fallen in love with them already. They are fast-paced and hard-hitting, using their educated feet at every opportunity. "Fire-n-Nice" had a couple of miscues that led to their demise. They mishandled a tagout that allowed Kai to get a tag to Newell, causing lost momentum for Baker and Green. Then, a double-team misfire left Baker easy picking for "The Shiniest Wizard."

Winners and STILL NWA: Femme Fatales Impact Tag Team Champions = "Fly Kicks" by pinfall in 12:34

Miceli: "Dakota Kai and Nixon Newell continue their winning ways, while it looks like 'Fire-n-Nice' need to go back to the drawing board."

After the match, Green tried to help up Baker, who shoved her away and walked out of the ring by herself.

Young: "Ooh, it looks like Britt Baker is not happy with her teammate right now!"

Santos: "I guess a knee to the head that was set up by your own partner will do that to you!"

Miceli: "You said it! Fans, we'll take another break. When we return, it's main event time!"

Miceli: "We're back and ready to rumble!"

Match Three ~ "The Four Horsewomen" ("Lass Kicker" Becky Lynch, "Money in the Bank" Mercedes KV, & Bayley Rose with Charlotte Flair) vs. "Sadistic Tails" (Kana & Mio Shirai) and Priscilla Kelly with "Zombie Girl" Maho Kurone

The multiple dynamics of this match ensured that it would be mysterious and unorthodox. Fans were treated to some fantastic action, with many scintillating sequences. Kelly was not necessarily on board with being teammates. She has shown resistance to anyone not associated with "The New Face of Fear" in the past. This match was no exception. When the going got tough, Kelly got lost. She walked out on her teammates in the heat of battle. Surprisingly, "Horsewomen" associate Io Shirai joined her sister on the apron and beckoned Kana for a tag. Charlotte was incensed, as their partner in crime was seemingly turning against them. Io did get the desperation tag from Kana, then showed where her allegiance lies by kicking Kana square in the jaw. She then laughed and threw up four fingers as she walked away. Her sister Mio looked on confused and horrified. As Io backed away from the ring, she told Mio, "Sore wa chōdo bijinesudesu (It's just business)." Mio didn't have time to respond, as she was blasted off the apron by KV. Bayley hit "Bayley to Belly" on a dazed Kana for the pinfall.

Winners = "The Four Horsewomen" by pinfall in 25:40

Miceli: "We got pretty much what we expected from Priscilla Kelly, but Io Shirai shocked us all!"

Young: "She didn't have to betray her own flesh and blood to prove her allegiance to 'The Four Horsewomen,' but that's exactly what she did!"

Santos: "Was it plan all along?! Was Io Shirai an insurance policy for 'The Four Horsewomen' tonight?!"

Miceli: "Intentional or not, she made all the difference in the world! Wow! There's so much going on right now, I can hardly keep up! We're running out of time for this week. 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'!"
