"Femme Fatales" TV Taping Number 96 (Week 192)

Madusa Miceli: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the hottest hour on television, Femme Fatales! I'm your hostess, Madusa! With me are my home girls Renee Young and Melissa Santos! Chicas, we have a hot one tonight!"

Renee Young: "You aren't kidding, Duce! Tonight's episode will feature all multi-woman matches and we'll get the final details on the Women's World Tag Team Championship qualifier tournament!"

Melissa Santos: "There's a lot of ladies here tonight, and they all want to fight!"

Miceli: "Heck yeah! 'Oedo Tai' is stepping up to challenge 'The Hive' for the Trios Titles! Becky Lynch will defend the Bantamweight Championship in a 'Fatal Four-Way!' And, the main event will see Kairi Hojo, Io Shirai, , Mercedes KVand Charlotte Flair take on 'The Four Horsewomen of MMA!' This is going to be pic! Let's get is started!"

Match One ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Ladies Trios Championship ~ "The Hive" (Priscilla Kelly, Dark Allie, & Sienna the Savage with Rosemary, Alex Gracia, Saraya Knight, Tracy Wayne, Karen Kreep, and Alexis Brooks) vs. "Oedo Tai" (Kagetsu, Sumire Natsu, & HZK with Hana Kimura)

The "Oedo Tai" match participants did their customary posing inside the ring while Hana skipped around the outside.

Once the match was on, they were all business. They took the fight to the champions. The action outside the ring got so intense with all the team seconds, the referee (Lisa Varon) dismissed them all from ringside. The match went pretty evenly at that point. Varon was knocked down during a melee. Natsu looked to have Allie beaten, but a female ran to the ring with skull face paint on who did not appear to be one of "The Hivelings." She scaled to the top rope and launched herself off, hitting a "Double Kneedrop" on Natsu. Sumire was out and the woman rolled Allie on top of her. The referee roused in time to see and count the pinfall.

Winners and STILL NWA: Femme Fatales Ladies Trios Champions = "The Hive" by pinfall in 11:36

As the woman walked up the ramp, she peered into the camera.

Miceli: "Wait! Is that?! Is that who I think it is?!"

Young: "It was hard to tell, but I thought I saw Ariel Piper!"

Santos: "That's who it looked like to me! Has she been sucked into 'The Hive?!'"

Miceli: "I don't know, but she sure looks the part and she just saved the Trios Championship for them with a big time assist! Let's take a break. We'll see if we can get a word in with Rosemary and her crew."

Miceli: "We're back! Fans, Laura Cruz has tracked down 'The Hive!' Let's see what Rosemary has to say about what looks like her newest recruit! "

Laura Cruz: "Rosemary! Rosemary! Can I ask a question? It looked like it was Ariel Piper came to the aid of 'The Hive' in that last match! Has she joined the group?"

Rosemary: "My dear child, you have it all wrong. 'The Hive' is not a group. One does not simply join it. It's a collection of demon souls coming together for the dark war. One is drawn to 'The Hive.' Ariel Piper was just another meat suit until she learned the way of the shadow. We showed her how free she could be. Now, she fights with us. We told you 'The Hive' would continue to grow. We're not done yet. In fact, we've only just begun."

Cruz was left eerily dumbfounded as Rosemary and company walked away. Then, Jinny approached and shook Cruz out of almost a trancelike state.

Jinny Couture: "So Laura, have you given any thought to my offer?"

Cruz: "Exactly what is your offer?"

Couture: "Join 'House of Couture' and stop being wasted backstage doing embarrassing interview spots when you could be in front of the crowd with me, dominating the competition. With you and Nina as my muscle, no one can stop the 'Couture Movement.' What do you say?"

Cruz: "I'm intrigued, but let me think about it."

Couture: "Don't think too long. There is work to be done."

Miceli: "Jinny seems to be making the rounds before her big title match tonight! It looks like Rosemary isn't the only one recruiting! Fans, it's 'Fatal Four-Way' time and the Bantamweight Championship is up for grabs! 'The Man' only has a twenty-five percent chance to retain! Let's see if Becky can get it done!"

Match Two ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Bantamweight Championship ~ "Fatal Four-Way" match ~ "The Man" Becky Lynch with Bayley Rose vs. "Fashionista" Jinny Couture with Nina Samuels vs. Mayu Iwatani vs. Amber Nova

This was an every woman for herself free-for-all. All four ladies fought tooth and nail when they were in action. Jinny spent some time conserving energy by laying back and letting some of the match unfold. It proved to be sound strategy, as she was the freshest at the end. She hit "Touch of Couture" on Nova and had her beaten. Lynch threw her out of the ring and immediately locked in "DisArm Her" on an incapacitated Nova, who had to tap out before anyone could make the save.

Winner and STILL NWA: Femme Fatales Bantamweight Champion = Becky Lynch by submission in 17:39

Miceli: "Talk about being in the right place at the right time for the champion!"

Young: "Jinny had the match won, but Becky stole the victory out from underneath her! That's the way it goes in that type of match!"

Miceli: "We'll take a quick break. Back with our huge eight-woman main event next!"

Miceli: "We're back and it's already breaking down backstage!"

The scene shifted to backstage, where Io Shirai and Kairi Hojo were being stomped on by all "Four Horsewomen of MMA." Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Mercedes KV, and Bayley Rose made the save. Hojo and Shirai were much the worse for wear. It was clear they would not be able to go in the main event.

Becky Lynch: "Bayley and I will step in! Let's kick those lasses!"

Charlotte Flair: "Becks, you just finished a tough match. Stay back and check on those two. We three can beat them."

Lynch: "All right, but if you get in trouble, I'm coming out there!"

Miceli: "It looks like the main event might have turned into four-on-three! I don't like those odds for Charlotte and her crew! Fans, before that match happens, let's take you to a message from GM Karlee Perez and Commissioner Yuzuki Aikawa concerning the tournament to determine which team will represent NWA: Femme Fatales at Spring Stampede in the World Tag Team Title 'Gauntlet.'"

Karlee Perez: "Commissioner Aikawa and I are pleased to announce the date and times for the tournament that will send one team to the 'Gauntlet' match to determine the first NWA World Women's Tag Team Champions since nineteen eighty-four. Sixteen teams will vie for this opportunity."

Yuzuki Aikawa: "The location will be the beautiful Spectrum Center in downtown Charlotte, North Carolina. The date will be Saturday, April thirteenth."

Perez: "Much like the recent Crockett Cup for our brother promotion NWA: Show Time, this event will take place over two different sessions. At one o'clock, the afternoon session will commence with all eight first round matches. The evening session will begin at six thirty and will comprise the last three rounds. Go to www.nwafemmefatales.com to purchase single session or package tickets."

Aikawa: "Next week on Femme Fatales, we will announce the tournament brackets and seeding."

Perez: "We have signed some international talent who will compete in the tournament along with many of our currently signed superstars. There might even be a legends or two among the mix. So, watch next week to see what surprises are unveiled."

Miceli: "I can't wait for bracketology next week! Fans, we're ready for this handicapped main event. Let's go to the ring!"

Match Three ~ "The Four Horsewomen" (Charlotte Flair, "Money in the Bank" Mercedes KV, & Bayley Rose) vs. "The Four Horsewomen of MMA" ("Rowdy" Ronda Rousey, "Queen of Spades" Shayna Baszler, "Supernova from Moldova" Marina Shafir, & Jessamyn "The Gun" Duke)

The early going was dominated by the outnumbered team. But, as one might imagine, the numbers game caught up with them. Bayley was punished for quite some time. Just when it looked like Rose was done for, Becky Lynch's music hit.

But, she never made it to the ring as she was attacked by Jinny Couture and Nina Samuels, who slammed her into the guardrail, taking her out. Charlotte and company were shocked as Jinny and Nina disappeared. A few more minutes of carnage took place until this entrance played:

The place went ballistic as Nixon Newell sprinted to the ring. She jumped up into the corner where Flair and KV were slumped exhausted. Newell implored Bayley to tag her. When Bayley finally did get free and slap Newell's hand, the place came unglued. All eight women began warring. Bayley and KV took out Shafir and Duke with stereo "Suicide Dives." Charlotte and Rousey toppled over the top rope after a "Crossbody Press" gone awry. That left Newell and Baszler inside the ring alone. Shayna locked in her "Kirifuda Clutch." Newell cleverly used her powerful legs to flip herself on top of Baszler and cradled her legs for the three-count to a massive roar.

Winners = "The Four Horsewomen" and Nixon Newell by pinfall in 20:21

Miceli: "What a reversal by Nixon Newell into the surprise pin!"

Young: "Shayna Baszler thought she had Nixon Newell put to sleep, but she gotten taken to school!"

Santos: "Nixon Newell saved and won that match for 'The Four Horsewomen!' What a performance!"

Miceli: "Fans, that's going to do it for this week. Please join us again next Thursday for another huge episode of Femme Fatales! For Renee Young and Melissa Santos, I'm Madusa! Keep on rockin' and rollin'!"
