Kickoff Show
Natalya vs. Mandy Rose
Results of this match by Matt Boone of Rajah.com
The bell sounds and we’re off-and-running with our first match of the night. Rose and Nattie take their time getting this one going. Rose takes Nattie down to the mat, but Nattie uses a leg-scissors to reverse her. Rose then snatches the ankle of Nattie and locks in a calf-crusher on one-half of the women’s tag champs.
Rose and Nattie scramble back to their feet where Rose slaps a side head-lock on her opponent. Nattie drops down and Rose flips over her in a sign of good athleticism. Rose continues to hang with Nattie step-for-step, rolling her up and scoring a near fall that prompts Nattie to smile and applaud afterwards. Nattie goes after the arm of Rose, but Rose uses the ropes on the throat of Nattie to shift the momentum back in her favor.
Nattie continues to go to the submission attempt route, only for Rose to show off her continued improvement in the ring as she hangs with the more experienced veteran move-for-move, remaining competitive all along the way. Nattie reverses an abdominal stretch attempt and taunts her by shouting at her that she’s just a model. Nattie fires up and shows some aggression, nearly finishing Rose off but ultimately failing to do so.
Mandy fights back into the lead again and then heads to the top-rope, where she connects with a beautiful missile drop kick that secures her another close near fall. Nattie hangs on and starts to pull back into the offensive lead again. We see a number of back-to-back reversals from Nattie to Rose and vice-versa on submission and pin attempts, with neither able to finish off the other just yet, but getting closer on each attempt. Finally, Nattie locks in the Sharpshooter and after giving a good showing, Rose has no choice but to tap out.
Winner: Natalya
