Cruz headscissors her from the bottom rope. Cruz then rolls her up off the casadora and wins.

Thoughts: Cruz got her first WOW win here, finally. It wasn't too much of note. Cruz's kicks didn't look that good here and BK didn't bring a lot to this.

Gigi Gianni nails Cruz from behind after then BK helps out. Cruz double dropkicks them. 

Big Rig Betty tries to calm down Jessie Jones in the back. Jones complains about Sprout Greens taking her stick and says God is the only one who can save her.

Thoughts: This was something different. It wasn't great or anything but the heels have no problem being heels and it wasn't that bad. This feud is far from over.

Sprout says the faces' breath stinks after and says they are contributing to the destruction of the planet. She says their mouth stinks as bad as their wrestling does. Jones then chases the heels out of the ring

Sibley Scoles interviews Top Tier. Coach says they don't care about Daisy Lane's crew. Kandi says Lane's crew is in for a rude awakening as they will rip them apart. Coach says if they think they are going to get the belts, they have another thing coming as Top Tier is the greatest team in wrestling.

WOW Trios Titles - Top Tier (Coach Campanelli, Kandi Krush and Gloria Glitter) (c) vs Daisy Lane, Chainsaw and Fury

Top Tier tore the head off of Lane's doll which started this one. Coach enters down the ramp alone and her partners ambush Lane's crew from behind. Coach chopblocks Chain then Chain fights off the 1v3. The heels are then sent out.

Fury boots Glitter as the match officially starts. Fury splashes Glitter in the corner and hits a corner hip attack. Glitter double throat thrusts Lane. Lane trips Coach then handspring backsplashes her.

Thoughts: It wasn't the right time to take the belts off of Top Tier so I'm glad they didn't. I liked this. Fury's offense really needs work though as it is never clean. Chain's doing a decent job as a face.

Coach gets on the mic after. She says Fury's team don't stand a chance against the greatest team in wrestling. Coach says they will never be the trios champs as they are Top Tier. 

Fury, Chainsaw and Lane do a promo after the break. Fury says Top tier won't get away with it. She says if they don't want to play fair, Monsters of Metal is coming for the trios title. Lane laughs at Top Tier thinking they are big and bad and says they will bring a nightmare of fury at them.

Genesis does a promo. She says she meets again with Santana Garrett. She says SG is a former champ and that's all she will ever be while she's at WOW. She says SG has been nothing but a thorn in her side. She says she better bring her A-game as she isn't holding back.

Next week's show has Animal Instinct vs Xena Phoenix and Kara Kai.

Genesis vs Santana Garrett

They lock up and let go. SG rolls her, armdrags her and jack knifes her for 2. Gen knees SG in the gut in the corner. Gen double throat thrusts her and bangs her face off the mat. Gen chinlocks her.

Gen ties up SG's legs and SG rolls her into a pin attempt. Gen spinning heel kicks her in the corner and hits chest forearms. SG forearms her then Gen forearms back. Gen snapmares her and straightjacket chokes her. Gen hits a straightjacket backcracker for 2.

Gen misses a 2nd rope spinning legdrop, which looked like it hurt. SG facekicks Gen out of the corner. SG hits forearms then handspring back elbows her. Gen hits leg kicks. SG back rolls, headflips and forearms Gen. SG superkicks Gen and wins.

Thoughts: The Genesis 2025 Humiliation Tour just keeps on trucking as Genesis loses again for no real reason. I wish I understood this one. I get that they see SG as one of their top faces but Gen has potential to be top heel and this promotion just isn't feeling it. The match was on the shorter end. It was about average and SG had a better showing than usual.

Overall thoughts: Cruz vs BK wasn't much of note but Cruz finally did get a win. The Big Rigs vs Greens/Parker match was something different and I liked it as both teams understood their roles. The trios match was also fine and it seems like that feud also isn't done. The main was on the shorter end and just average with Genesis taking yet another loss. We still have no word on Tormenta or the WOW Title. I'd give this one a 6 out of 10 as I did mostly like it.
