"Femme Fatales" TV Taping Number 98 (Week 196)

Madusa Miceli: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the hottest hour on television, Femme Fatales! I'm your hostess, Madusa. With me are Renee Young and Melissa Santos! Girls, it's going to be a wild sixty minutes tonight!"

Renee Young: "Duce, you got that right! We'll see 'Impact Players' Tessa Blanchard and Jordynne Grace battle Britt Baker and Katya!"

Melissa Santos: "Also, we'll have the debut of Canadian indy star and 'Second Chance talent,' Alexia Nicole!"

Miceli: "And, our main event will see Mercedes KV and Bayley Rose defend the Impact Tag Team Championship against 'Oedo Tai!' Plus, we'll have new NWA World Women's Tag Team Champions 'Sky Pirates' in the house for an interview! Let's get it started in the ring right now!"

Match One ~ Alexia Nicole vs. Merissa Rude

Nicole made quick work of Rude, using her strength to overpower her. She finished her off with the "Candy Crush" ("Wheelbarrow Stunner"), followed by a "Curb Stomp."

Winner = Alexia Nicole by pinfall in 2:43

Miceli: "Wow! She doesn't work by the hour!"

Just then, Sienna the Savage came out of the crowd and brutalized Nicole with a long leather strap. Sienna was disguised with a sweatsuit and none of the typical "Hive" make-up. She took off the sweatsuit to reveal her normal wrestling gear. She then grabbed a microphone.

Sienna the Savage: "Alexia Nicole, did you think we'd forgotten our little issue?! We had a 'Strap' match scheduled with you in Canada before you came to the plane known as Femme Fatales. Well, we've waited patiently for your debut so that we can whip the flesh of that meatsuit! Now is as good a time as any!"

Sienna went to swing the strap at Alexia again, but Nicole caught it and pulled Sienna in for a "Clothesline." Sienna retreated to the outside while Alexia swung the strap in circles overhead. Nicole then grabbed the microphone that Sienna had dropped in the ring.

Alexia Nicole: "You want it?! You got it! Let's go right now!"

Miceli: "Oh my! Bonus match! This will be the first ever 'Strap' match on Femme Fatales programming! We'll give it to you right after a short break!"

Miceli: "We're back! Alexia Nicole and Sienna are tied up! Let's get it on!"

Match Two ~ "Strap" match ~ Alexia Nicole vs. Sienna the Savage

Winner = Alexia Nicole by four-corner touch in 14:45

Miceli: "That was a two-for-one debut special! Welcome back, Alexia Nicole!"

Young: "She's the real deal!"

Santos: "And, she's gotten so much stronger and explosive since she was here years ago!"

Miceli: "We need to take another break. See you back in three minutes!"

As the episode returned to air, we saw Alexia Nicole walking backstage. She was approached from behind by "Fly Kicks."

Nixon Newell: "Hey, Lexi!"

Nicole turned around swiftly, recognizing the voice calling her.

Nicole: "Nixon! Dakota! My girls!"

Newell: "That 'Strap' match was fantastic!"

Dakota Kai: "Yeah! You really kicked a**!"

Newell: "Dakota, I'm glad you think so, because Alexia is my surprise! She's your new partner!"

Nicole: "Surprise, surprise!"

Kai: "Okay! Okay! I'm down! Let's do this!"

Just then, "The IIconics" walked up.

Jessie McKay: "So, we were just eavesdropping and heard the news! Congratulations Dakota, it looks like you get to keep those Tag Team Titles after all."

Peyton Royce: "But, it's been a while since you defended them. After all, you were gimpy for a few weeks. So, what do you say you break your new partner in right next week by putting those titles on the line against us?!"

Newell: "You got it! They're going to kick your heads off!"

Kai looked a little concerned, followed by slightly perturbed that Nixon had accepted the match on her behalf.

Newell: "You girls are going to run through those posers next week!"

Kai: "Yeah."

The trio walked off.

Miceli: "Wow! A Tag Team Championship defense in their first match as a team?! That's asking a lot. We'll see if they're up to the task next week! For now, let's go to the ring for this tag team grudge match!"

Match Three ~ "Impact Players" (Tessa Blanchard & Jordynne Grace) vs. Dr. Britt Baker, DMD & Katya

This was a back-and-forth match from start to finish. There was an impressive strength challenge between Grace and Katya. They continued to try and one-up each other. Grace ultimately won the exchange. Blanchard got a measure of sweet revenge by slapping the taste out of Baker's mouth (retaliation for the same from last week), then Blanchard hilariously yelled out, "I guess you'll be your own patient now, bi***!" The finish was a frenzied sequence. All four were in the ring at the same time. Grace "Clotheslined" Katya over the top rope. rope. That left Baker to be double-teamed. Baker suffered an unenviable fate--a "Double Slingshot Powerbomb."

Winners  = "Impact Players" by pinfall in 15:32

Miceli: "Impressive win from Tessa Blanchard and Jordynne Grace!"

Young: "They took it Britt Baker and the black belt Katya!"

Santos: "Tessa Blanchard and Jordynne Grace are going to be a major force in NWA: Femme Fatales!"

Miceli: "I believe it! Fans, we're going to take another break. Our main event is still ahead!"

Miceli: "We're back! Folks, we're so proud to have the brand new NWA World Women's Tag Team Champions, Kairi Hojo and Io Shirai, 'Sky Pirates!' Jessica (Rose), take it away!"

Jessica Rose: "Ladies and gentlemen, the new NWA World Women's Tag Team Champions, 'Sky Pirates.'"

Kairi and Io came to the ring to a huge response from the crowd. They paraded through ringside and high-fived all the fans on their way around the ring. Once they got into the ring, they greeted fans on the microphone.

Kairi Hojo: "Thank you so much! We are very proud to be the World Champions!"

Io Shirai: "We will be fighting champions! We will defend these titles all over the world!"

Hojo: "Yes, 'Sky Pirates' will take on anyone!"

Suddenly, a voice from backstage came over the PA: "Anyone?"

Then, to everyone in the building's surprise, NWA: Femme Fatales Wrestling Coaches Trish Stratus and Amy Dumas came walking out.

Trish Stratus: "I believe we just heard you say you'd defend those World Tag Team Titles against anyone."

Amy Dumas: "Yeah, Trish, that's what they said."

Stratus: "I thought so. Well Kairi, Io, we're anyone. How about you defend those championship belts against 'Team Bestie?'"

Dumas: "When we were in our heyday, there weren't Women's Tag Team Titles to compete for. We'd like a shot at them now."

The crowd began to chant, "Yes!" Then, GM Karlee Perez came out quickly.

Karlee Perez: "Ladies, ladies. I like what I'm seeing right now! We have two legends out here challenging the new NWA World Women's Tag Team Champions. I know that Kairi and Io will be fighting champions, and they're probably willing to defend those titles any time and any place. But, I want to do this big! We have our two hundredth episode coming up four weeks from tonight. I'd say a match like this deserves that kind of stage. So, I think we'll give Trish and Amy a month to prepare. That's only fair. Then, we'll put this match out there, center stage! What do you say?"

Hojo: "Let's do it!"

Dumas: "Yeah, we're down."

Perez: "So, it's settled then!"

Miceli: "What?! 'Team Bestie' versus 'Sky Pirates' in four weeks for the World Tag Team Titles! Yes, please! Fans, let's go right back to the ring for our big main event!"

Match Four ~ NWA: Femme Fatales Impact Tag Team Championship ~ "The Four Horsewomen" ("Money in the Bank" Mercedes KV & Bayley Rose) vs. "Oedo Tai" (Kagetsu & HZK with Sumire Natsu and Hana Kimura)

This match was shaping up to be a really good. But, just like last week, the match ended abruptly after interference by "The Four Horsewomen of MMA."

Winners = no contest in 16:09

Ronda Rousey and company blasted KV and Bayley. Charlotte and Becky Lynch ran in an evened the odds as "Oedo Tai" bailed out. There was a stalemate eventually.

Miceli: "Ronda Rousey and her gang have ruined two main events in a row!"

Young: "Something's gotta give! This is getting ridiculous!"

Santos: "No question about it! They're running roughshod and taking the program hostage!"

Miceli: "You said it! Fans, we apologize once again for the lack of a finish in the main event! GM Karlee Perez and Commissioner Yuzuki Aikawa are going to have to get involved! We have to get our program back! Fans, we're 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! Keep on rockin' and rollin'!"

The episode faded to black with all eight women in a standoff.
