"Femme Fatales" TV Taping Number 113 (Week 225)

Madusa: "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, we're getting closer to turkey day, and you know what that means!"

Renee Young: "It's Starrcade season! And, we're going to see a small preview of the event tonight, as Nixon Newell will team up with Toni Storm and Piper Niven to battle Rosemary, Dark Allie, and Dakota Kai in our main event!"

Melissa Santos: "Also tonight, Charlotte Flair will take on Utami in a battle of former Heavyweight Champions! And, it kicks off with Hikaru Shida and Awesome Kong in a battle of the infamous 'Joshi Mafia' originals!"

Madusa: "You got it! Let's get it started!"

Match One ~ Awesome Kong with Aja Kong vs. Hikaru Shida

Winner = Awesome Kong by pinfall in 10:29

Madusa: "Awesome Kong proved she's still got it!"

Young: "She may not be as dominant as she once was, but she can still get it done!"

Santos: "Awesome Kong still evokes fear in the hearts of women the world wide!"

Madusa: "That was a big win over Hikaru Shida! Okay folks, we need to take a break. We'll be back with more action in three minutes!"

Madusa: "All right, fans! We're back and ready for action! Charlotte Flair is standing by with Charly Caruso before her match with Utami. Let's see what the queen has to say!"

Charly Caruso: "I am here with Charlotte Flair, who is moments away from her match with Utami. Charlotte, this will be the first time you two have been in the ring against each other. How do you prepare for an unknown opponent?"

Charlotte Flair: "I am the daughter of the greatest wrestler of all time. I am genetically superior. My dad has taught me how to be prepared every night out against every opponent. Therefore, I can defend any style because of my athletic ability and intelligence. Utami is a great foe. She's explosive in the ring and strong as an ox. She'll present a tough challenge. But, she's not Charlotte Flair. She'll learn a wrestling lesson from the queen. Utami, it's time to bow down. Woooo!"

Madusa: "Strong words from the leader of 'The Four Horsewomen.' Yuki Kamifuku is backstage with Utami. Let's see what the youngster has to say."

Yuki Kamifuku: "I am here with Utami. She will face Charlotte Flair in moments. Utami, Shārotto Fureā wa, Famu Fatāru de anata ga chokumen shita mottomo kibishī aite kamo shiremasen. Charenji no junbi wa dekite imasu ka (Charlotte Flair may be the toughest opponent you have faced in Femme Fatales. Are you ready for the challenge)?"

Utami: "Hai. Shārotto wa taihenda. Kanojo wa saikō no hitoridesu. Watashi wa wakai kamo shiremasenga, besuto o uchi makashitaidesu. Shārotto ni jibun ga nandede kite iru no ka misemasu (Yes. Charlotte is tough. She is one of the best. I may be young, but I am hungry to beat the best. I will show Charlotte what I am made of)."

Kamifuku: "Back to you, Madusa."

Madusa: "All right, let's get this thing started!"

Match Two ~ Charlotte Flair vs. Utami

This was a much more evenly matched contest than people expected. Charlotte is the more experienced and arguably more athletic. But, Utami is a fierce competitor with a strong style upbringing. Her toughness and striking ability are practically unmatched. She had Charlotte on the ropes for much of it. The veteran came back after capitalizing on a mistake. She then had Utami on the ropes. The match did not see a finish, as Rosemary sent her minions out to attack both women.

Winner = no contest in 17:10

Charlotte and Utami fought side-by-side to fend off their nemeses until they were joined by the rest of "The Four Horsewomen." after the combat had died down, Charlotte and Utami shook hands.

Madusa: "That was a great show of solidarity by the foes who were forced into a partnership after 'The Hive' came a calling!"

Young: "Charlotte and Utami held their own against Rosemary's evil bunch! Then, the rest of 'The Horsewomen' came in and made it a fair fight!"

Santos: "Then, 'The Hive' wanted no part of it! They only like it when the odds are stacked in their favor!"

Madusa: "Right! But, the roster has really rallied around each other to even it out! The dark war is starting to turn! Fans, we need to take another break. We'll return with our big main event next!"

Madusa: "We're back and it's main event time, six-woman style!"

Match Three ~ "The Hive" (Rosemary, Dark Allie, & Dakota Kai) vs. Nixon Newell and "Bada** Besties" (Toni Storm & "Vixen of Violence" Piper Niven)

This match was a flat out war. All six ladies lit into each other. Nixon and Rosemary were out for one another's heads. Storm and Piper went after Allie and Dakota with great fury and vengeance. This was a microcosm of the ongoing dark war, but the tenor was different than recent history. Up to this point, "The Hive" has run roughshod over the collective arsenal of NWA: Femme Fatales due to the divide and conquer method and the sheer size of the massive group that spans multiple promotions. But, within the last two or three weeks, the air of invincibility has begun to fade. Rosemary's troops have become battle weary and are being picked off one by one. In the midst of an all-out brawl, Toni Storm and Dakota Kai found themselves as the only two inside the ring. After Kai missed a "Kai-O Kick," she was met with a thunderous "Headbutt." Dakota staggered and Storm took advantage with a boot to the gut and followed up with "Strong Zero" ("Snap Piledriver") to put away the Television Champion.

Winners = Nixon Newell & "Bada** Besties" by pinfall in 23:44

Madusa: "Toni Storm pinned Dakota Kai! That's a very rare loss for the TV Champ!"

Young: "That's one of Dakota's first pinfall losses in months!"

Santos: "It looks like 'The Hive' may be weakening! They're vulnerable!"

Madusa: "NWA: Femme Fatales needs to bring in all the heavy artillery and strike while the iron is hot! Starrcade could be the turning point! 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! Keep on rockin' and rollin'!"

Newell, Storm, and Niven celebrated with the crowd to end the broadcast.
