WOW Women of Wrestling 7/12/2025 Season 5, Episode 44

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/07/wow-women-of-wrestling-752025-season-5.html

Santana Garrett vs Holidead

Here's a rare face vs face match. They lock up and let go. SG wristlocks her and side headlocks her. Holi throws her off. SG rolls out of a lariat and backrolls into a spinning headscissors. SG is laying near the apron and Holi clubs her. Holi legdrops her there.

Holi backbreakers her and puts her in tree of woe. Holi stomps her there then corner dropkicks her as she hangs. Holi boots SG in the legs then rocking chairs her. SG's head is banged off the buckles. Holi's head is then banged off the buckles.

SG hits bad shots to knock her over then cartwheel back elbows her in the corner. SG then tries a handstand hurricanrana on the ropes but is blocked. Holi crabs her. Holi swinging flatliners her for 2. SG messes up her head flip and slaps her. SG then superkicks her and wins.

Thoughts: It was the usual not so clean SG match. I really wish she'd cut out some of the stuff she can't hit clean anymore. It was about average otherwise.

SG gets on the mic. She says she gives Holi credit and says she's a heck of a competitor. She says she's one step closer to a championship match. She says she knows she has everything it takes to become a WOW champ. 

Fury vs Nikki Nashville

This is NN's WOW debut. NN pushes Fury back off the lock up twice. NN slams her. Fury backhands her then hits a corner splash. Fury corner hip attacks her then bangs her face off the mat. Fury running knees her to the back on the ropes then sits on her on the ropes.

NN hits some shots and misses a corner splash. Fury trips her then hits a low flatliner. Fury koji cluthes her and NN ropebreaks. NN boots her out of the corner and hits lariats. NN spinning heel kicks her then running back elbows her. NN backdrops her. NN hits a not so pretty jackahmmer to win.

Thoughts: Nikki won in her WOW debut here which was good. The match didn't get a ton of time and was about average. Fury loses often so this outcome was expected. NN has a decent look and costume.

Top Tier (Coach Campanelli, Gloria Glitter and Kandi Krush) vs Kalaki The Island Girl, Sandy Short and Tiki Chamorro

Coach says she hopes her beach bum opponents don't think they are going on a vacation. She says they are fighting Top Tier, the greatest and most dangerous team in wrestling. They say they are stepping in shark infested waters and they will chew you up and spit you out.

Tiki trips Coach then bangs her knee off the mat. Tiki takes her down then armdrags and slams her. Tiki and Kandi go at it. Tiki armdrags her and splashes her. Kal comes in and back elbows Kandi. She armdrags her then does like a jumping headbutt. Kandi hits a hard chop on her.

Glitter gets in and Kal trips her. Glitter takes a high/low that doesn't really hit. Shore boots Glitter and hits a skull crushing finale for 2. Shore goes up and over then is pulled down by Coach on a springboard.

Top Tier hits attacks on Shore in the corner. Coach knees Shore in the gut and bangs her face off the mat. Kandi bangs Shore's head off the buckles and hits corner spears. Shore pulls Kandi into the buckles. Glitter corner spears Tiki and hits knees to the gut. Glitter 2nd rope diving forearms her. Tiki takes a double team drop by Top Tier and rolls up Kandi for 2. Tiki spears Glittter. Kali comes in and hits dropkicks. Kai gutwrench powerslams Kandi then snapmare drivers her.

Coach breaks things up. Shore comes up off the top rope and is hit with a knee to the gut. Shore then takes a russian legsweep + lariat and is pinned.

Thoughts: It was a decent tag here with the heels being solid heels and doing various double team moves on the faces. The faces didn't knock things out of the park but they did do what they were supposed to. I do wonder where things go with Top Tier as they have been champs for a long time with no end in sight.

Top Tier is interviewed. Coach says they are still the world trios champs and say they are the best team in wrestling.

Samantha Smart and The Classmaster come out to talk. Sam says their opponents are begging for a taste of greatness like dogs at a dinner table. Smart says they are smarter than them, the fans and everybody. 

Paola Mayfield and Abilene Maverick come out. Paola is supposed to fight Princess Aussie tonight. Paola is a in a neckbrace. Dave McClane asks what's this. Ab says Paola has been really hurt and Dave questions it. Dave asks if this is more of Ab's shenanigans. Ab says they aren't the same person. Ab says they found a replacement for Paola and it's Genesis.

Genesis vs Princess Aussie

Aussie takes her down and pounds on her. Aussie flying headscissors her. Gen spinning heel kicks her then hits mounted shots. Aussie's face is banged off the buckles. Gen foot chokes Aussie in the corner then chokes her with her forearm.

Gen misses a corkscrew kick in the corner and Aussie backcrackers her. Aussie hits flying lariats then backdrops her. Aussie corner splashes her then suplexes her for 2. Aussie crossfaces her.  Aussie rolls her up for 2. Gen drops her with a high kick then straightjacket backcrackers her. Gen bangs Aussie's head off the buckles. They fight on the buckles. Gen boots her while she sits up top. Aussie gordbusters her off the buckles. Aussie top rope splashes her and wins.

Thoughts: It was a decent main with it being competitive and both girls in theory having a shot. No one really botched anything and it was probably the best match on the show. Genesis lost as usual though as the Genesis 2025 Humiliation Tour continues. I'm not sure why they had Paola pull out of the match.

Overall thoughts: It was your average WOW show for the first part. Santana Garrett didn't impress in her match like always and her sloppiness brought the match down. Nikki Nashville debuted against Fury in an average match. Top Tier had an okay trios match and the main was solid as expected. I'd give it a 6 out of 10 as it was alright enough but nothing must see.
