Lexi Gomez vs Renee Michelle

The stakes are high as Marina Tucker introduces the 2 challengers facing off in this Best of 5 Falls Match for a shot at her title. The pair lockup and feel each other out with an exchange of Waistlocks, Headlocks and armwringers. Renee unloads with a kneelift and puts the pressure on Lexi’s ribs with a crushing bodyscissors. A transition into a tight Lotus Lock has Gomez desperately tapping out! Renee pushes her advantage, bending Lexi backwards in a fingerlock. Michelle takes Lexi on a turnbuckle smash tour of the ring before wringing another submission out of her. Gomez regroups, buries Renee in the corner with a trio of shoulderblocks and unleashes a barrage of chokes before trapping her in a kneed straitjacket Surfboard. A brutal Bearhug finishes off the veteran and leaves her hurting for the next fall. Lexi brushes off an early assault by Renee and punishes her opponent with a Camel Clutch, Cravat, and Chinlock before hauling her into a Reverse Bearhug submission. It’s all even heading into the final round. One wrestler will rise from challenger to contender, but will the current champion have anything to say?
