EPISODE 3 RESULTS QUICK RESULTS
Jocelynn Wahl (c) d. Rachel Yamamoto (1:53) [56%] Shino Sakamoto and Evie Armitage d. Esmeralda Mistica and Artemisia Frost (17:33) [95%] Kijo and Zenobia d. Salome St. James and Orange Watanabe (15:37) [77%] Nikita Lux d. Shirin Panahi (7:18) [76%] Arcadia Naruse d. Miho Imagawa and Yuko Asashi (43:08) [100%]
FULL RESULTS RESULTS
Jocelynn Wahl d. Rachel Yamamoto (1:53) [56%] The textbook definition of a squash. Yamamoto attempted a bit of offense early on (and even successfully dodged a couple of lariat attempts), but was ultimately knocked out after a series of clobbering blows and a devastating Bunker Buster. Wahl came out of this match looking like an unstoppable beast… and Yamamoto was carted off to the nearest hospital on a stretcher. Is there anyone on the EDEN-1 roster who even has the slightest chance of beating her?
Shino Sakamoto and Evie Armitage d. Esmeralda Mistica and Artemisia Frost (17:33) [95%] The opening exchange between Armitage and Mistica was as swift and balletic as expected, but the match itself grew more and more heated as it went on. The violence ramped up as Frost entered the ring, who certainly demonstrated why she’s known as the Tyrant Assassin. In the end, however, Frost took in the pinfall after Armitage and Sakamoto took turns launching off the top rope with a Frog Splash and Teleportation Press, essentially ganging up on the Martial Law henchwoman to defeat her. The lingering animosity between Armitage and Mistica remains unresolved.
Kijo and Zenobia d. Salome St. James and Orange Watanabe (15:37) [77%] The unlikely alliance between Kijo and Zenobia continued in a match that showcased their fluidity as a tag team. Watanabe was a veritable nonentity throughout much this match, particularly in the earliest stretches where Zenobia pummeled her from the top rope over and over again. St. James tried to ramp up the violence (even taking out referee Rei Kurosawa at one point), resulting in a match that fell apart into a brawl pretty often. In the end, Zenobia scooped up the victory after pinning Orange Watanabe in a surprise Huracanrana.
Nikita Lux d. Shirin Panahi (7:18) [76%] A brief and decisive affair with Lux dominating much of the opening and closing stretches of the match. Panahi put up a good fight, but Lux eventually annihilated her in quick fashion with her finisher, Unchallenged Hate. Lux came out of this match vindicated, with her sights set directly on Shino Sakamoto.
Arcadia Naruse d. Miho Imagawa and Yuko Asashi (43:08) [100%] An epic confrontation! All three women brought their A-game to this match, unleashing a veritable arsenal onto one another. Naruse was the clear favorite to win, however, from the match’s opening moments, decimating both of her opponents with a series of Dangerous Knee Strikes and giving Imagawa an unexpected crimson mask. Yuko Asashi also impressed throughout the match, often teaming up with Naruse (and against her faction leader) as the two women tried to dispatch their old mentor, Imagawa. Asashi and Imagawa attacked each other with unexpected violence, interrupting each other’s pinning combinations and walloping one another before Naruse eventually launched herself from the top rope and took out Asashi with a Shrieking Pegasus. From there, Imagawa and Naruse had a brief and decisive bout as the two battle-damaged warriors finally squared off. Imagawa came close to putting Naruse away, dramatically kicking out of a Shrieking Pegasus and delivering a devastating Twisting Complete Shot. But in the end, Naruse took out her former mentor with another Dangerous Knee Strike and a Shrieking Pegasus, securing the win and a championship match with Jocelynn Wahl.

EDEN-1 (episode 4) SHOWDOWN IN SAPPORO 9/15/20 at 7pm EST Arcadia Naruse’s gambit has finally paid off. After interjecting herself into the Triple Threat Match to determine the next challenger for the EDEN-1 World Championship, Naruse emerged victorious after an epic, 40+ minute encounter. Now she faces her greatest challenge: squaring off against Jocelynn Wahl and fulfilling her destiny as the one to dismantle the old guard of women’s professional wrestling. Match 1: Singles Match Evie Armitage vs. Esmeralda Mistica
The long-awaited rematch! During their match at Fatal Genesis, Armitage concussed Mistica with a Calamity Waltz, ending the bout in an unexpected upset. Now Mistica has returned… and she’s desperate for revenge against a competitor she believes is her obvious inferior. Match 2: Singles Match Salome St. James (with Orange Watanabe) vs. Fatou Diop
With a losing streak twice the size of her violent temper, Salome St. James continues her quest to enact carnage upon all of EDEN-1. Orange Watanabe has enlisted her services as St. James’ manager as the Heavy Metal Succubus sets her sights on submission specialist Fatou Diop. Match 3: Tag Match Kijo and Zenobia vs. Scatterheart and Artemisia Frost
With the championship match between Wahl and Naruse stirring up tensions between Martial Law and the Furies, Zenobia enlists the help of her rival-turned-unexpected-ally Kijo to ward off the advances of Scatterheart and Artemisia Frost. Match 4: Singles Match Shino Sakamoto vs. Nikita Lux
Perceived by many as the future of EDEN-1, Shino Sakamoto aims to prove herself in her first solo outing in the promotion. Meanwhile, Nikita Lux seeks out nothing more than destruction and mayhem against a competitor she believes has slighted and humiliated her. Match 5: Singles Match Miho Imagawa vs. Yuko Asashi
Unexpected animosities between Imagawa and Asashi flared up during their recent Triple Threat Elimination Match against Arcadia Naruse. After both women fell to Naruse, Asashi challenged Imagawa to a singles match at Showdown at Sapporo to prove once and for all that she deserves to leave her mentor’s shadow. Match 6: EDEN-1 World Championship Main Event Jocelynn Wahl (c) vs. Arcadia Naruse
Naruse’s long-fought battle to legitimatize her claim for the EDEN-1 World Championship finally came to an end after her epic 40+ minute Triple Threat Match against Miho Imagawa and Yuko Asashi. With this victory under her belt, Naruse finally sets her sights on Jocelynn Wahl, the dominant champion whose reign of terror seems virtually unstoppable. At long last, the new generation makes its first move to dismantle the old guard — but will Naruse have what it takes to defeat Jocelynn Wahl?

EPISODE 4 - SHOWDOWN IN SAPPORO: RESULTS
QUICK RESULTS Esmeralda Mistica d. Evie Armitage via pinfall (9:49) [84%] Fatou Diop d. Salome St. James via submission (14:21) [73%] Scatterheart and Artemisia Frost d. Kijo and Zenobia via pinfall (35:04) [100%]
Shino Sakamoto d. Nikita Lux (12:44) [92%] Miho Imagawa d. Yuko Asashi via pinfall (14:48) [98%] Arcadia Naruse d. Jocelynn Wahl via pinfall (23:25) [100%] [Title Change]
FULL RESULTS Esmeralda Mistica d. Evie Armitage via pinfall (9:49) [84%] Armitage came into this match with something to prove, whipping Mistica around the ring in a confident display of athleticism. It didn’t take long for Mistica to regain her footing, and the two went through a sudden sprint of offense, showcasing their speed and agility. But Mistica wound up taking the win in a somewhat fluky manner, rebounding from a Frog Splash and a Super Rana Facebuster with a surprise roll-up pin. Against all odds, Mistica claimed victory… but in a fashion that left much doubt about who the better women truly is. A rubber match seems almost inevitable at this point.
Fatou Diop d. Salome St. James via submission (14:21) [73%] Salome St. James attacked Diop with her usual brand of BS and shenanigans, plowing through her opponent with brass knuckles and tasking Orange Watanabe with ref distractions. Undeterred, Diop gradually worked the arm and neck, ending the match with a powerful Solebutt Kick and Butterfly Neck Lock. St. James’ humiliating losing streak continues, and Diop solidifies herself as a submission master par excellence.
Promo: Gunner Hashimoto video package
Scatterheart and Artemisia Frost d. Kijo and Zenobia via pinfall (35:04) [100%] A violent, fast-paced match with an endless parade of false finishes. Kijo and Zenobia worked well together, with Kijo showing particular aggression (for some hitherto unknown reason) against Artemisia Frost. The match ultimately devolved into a schmoz, ending when Frost nailed Zenobia with Weeping Lamentations to claim victory for her team. Questions abound about whether this uneasy alliance between Kijo and Zenobia can weather the storm, particularly as this match has inadvertently put an end to Kijo’s perfect winning streak.
Promo: Genesis Tournament
Shino Sakamoto d. Nikita Lux (12:44) [92%] The match started with a sequence of reversals and counter reversals where Sakamoto kicked out of a number of pin attempts and eventually gained the upper hand. Sakamoto worked with swiftness and confidence, even as Lux pulverized her with a number of power moves. In the end, Sakamoto muscled through a devastating Triple Powerbomb and dispatched Lux with the Teleportation Press. In the end, Sakamoto proved herself a formidable opponent — and, if speculations are correct, the future of the company.
Miho Imagawa d. Yuko Asashi via pinfall (14:48) [98%] A tremendous match and showcase for Yuko Asashi, who attacked her mentor with real aplomb and gusto. Both women kicked out of each other’s finishers—the Celestial Deathstrike and Confectionary Catastrophre, respectively—and truly demonstrated their toughness in the ring. The ending came in an unexpected and surprising fashion, however, as Imagawa interrupted a top-rope maneuver from Asashi, knocked her opponent down to the mat, and countered with an out-of-nowhere Firebird Stomp. Imagawa pinned Asashi and came out the victor, although her pupil will no doubt seek out a rematch in the future.
Arcadia Naruse d. Jocelynn Wahl via pinfall (23:25) [100%] A tremendous match. Naruse unloaded on Wahl as soon as the bell rang, taking her down with a Run-Up Enziguri, Dangerous Knee Strike, and Backdrop. Wahl quickly regained her footing, however, and countered much of this high-impact offense with pure strength and brutality. But Naruse continued to dictate the match’s pace, ramping up the intensity as Wahl tried to slow things down with chokes and lariats. Wahl’s desperation became somewhat untenable after Naruse kicked out of her Atomic Leg Drop, leading to the champion biting her challenger multiple times throughout the match. There was also a dramatic sequence during the match’s midpoint where Naruse swung Wahl into the ropes and accidentally knocked out the referee… only to then get her opponent down on the match with an STF Crossface. Despite Wahl’s obvious strength advantage, Naruse ultimately claimed victory with a climactic flurry of offense, taking the champion out with a Swinging Neckbreaker, Ushigoroshi, and Diving Neckbreaker before nailing her with her finisher, The Shrieking Pegasus. Naruse won the EDEN-1 World Championship in a decisive fashion, taking her first steps in dismantling the old guard of women’s pro wrestling. But Wahl will no doubt hatch her plot for revenge.

EDEN-1 (episode 5) ROAD TO THE GENESIS TOURNAMENT 11/10/20 at 7pm EST A new era has begun. With her victory over Jocelynn Wahl at Showdown in Sapporo, Arcadia Naruse claims the EDEN-1 World Championship and ushers in a bold new era in women’s wrestling. But dissent still lingers in the locker room. Wahl readies her campaign to reclaim the championship. The Furies have gone from “wrestling outsiders” to the establishment. And Orange Watanabe has announced a “Genesis Tournament” to establish a new secondary belt. What does the future hold for EDEN-1? Match 1: Singles Match
Gunner Hashimoto vs. Alicia Hayden
Gunner Hashimoto makes her EDEN-1 debut, signing with the promotion at the behest of her best friend (and now-stablemate) Miho Imagawa. In fact, Imagawa will join her companion at ringside as the so-called “Basilisk” takes on EDEN-1 trainee Alicia Hayden. Match 2: Tag Match Zenobia, Kijo, and Fatou Diop vs. Artemisia Frost, Scatterheart, and Salome St. James
Still stinging from her team’s loss at Showdown in Sapporo, Zenobia enlists the help of fellow stablemate Fatou Diop to aid her and Kijo in a rematch. In retaliation, Scatterheart and Frost enlist the services of Salome St. James (partially at the urging of EDEN-1 president Orange Watanabe, who still seems hungry to get St. James her first win). Will this tenuous alliance between Zenobia and Kijo survive the experience? Match 3: Singles Match Evie Armitage vs. Shino Sakamoto
Shino Sakamoto seeks to continue her hot streak as she challenges “Wind Dancer” Evie Armitage in a friendly exhibition match. Match 4:
Singles Match Yuko Asashi vs. Shirin Panahi
Reeling from her recent demoralizing loss against faction leader Miho Imagawa, Yuko Asashi seeks to redeem herself in a one-on-one encounter with Shirin Panahi, whose still on the hunt for her first singles victory in EDEN-1. This need has become even more urgent as Gunner Hashimoto joins the Celestial Holy Army, further endangering Asashi’s placement within the faction. Match 5:
Tag MatchArcadia Naruse and Nikita Lux vs. Jocelynn Wahl and Esmeralda Mistica Naruse promised a paradigm shift when she challenged Wahl for the EDEN-1 World Championship — and she delivered, stripping the “People’s Ace” of the title in an epic confrontation. Now Wahl seeks to reassert her dominance within the ranks of EDEN-1, challenging her new rival to a tag match. During this show, Watanabe will also announce the brackets for the Genesis Tournament.

QUICK RESULTS
Gunner Hashimoto d. Alicia Hayden via submission (2:29) [58%] Zenobia, Kijo, and Fatou Diop d. Artemisia Frost, Scatterheart, and Salome St. James via submission (25:08) [81%] Shino Sakamoto d. Evie Armitage via pinfall (10:04) [88%] Shirin Panahi d. Yuko Asashi via submission (15:15) [94%] Jocelynn Wahl and Esmeralda Mistica d. Arcadia Naruse (c) and Nikita Lux via pinfall (23:53) [100%] RESULTSGunner Hashimoto d. Alicia Hayden via submission (2:29) [58%] A textbook example of a squash. Hayden tried to take control of the match early on with some elbow strikes and a bodyslam, but Hashimoto quickly took her off her feet with a flurry of suplexes and submissions. In the end, Hashimoto latched on the Inferno of Torture and took out the EDEN-1 trainee without even breaking a sweat. The message was clear: Hashimoto has arrived in EDEN-1 and she means business.
Zenobia, Kijo, and Fatou Diop d. Artemisia Frost, Scatterheart, and Salome St. James via submission (25:08) [81%] A blood-pounding car crash. The match continually broke out into a furious series of brawls, with all six women bounding into the ring at random intervals. Throughout it all, the rivalry between Zenobia and Artemisia Frost boiled over — and Salome St. James still found that first win an all-too-elusive prospect (despite Orange Watanabe tossing weaponry into the ring). But it all came to an end when Fatou Diop cornered Artemisia Frost, nailing her with a Codebreaker before making her tap out with This Woman’s Work.
Shino Sakamoto d. Evie Armitage via pinfall (10:04) [88%] A fast-paced battle that started off with a series of strikes and roll-ups. Despite Armitage’s best efforts, Sakamoto dominated her opponent for huge swaths of the match. Armitage tried to turn the tide, but Sakamoto was relentless, overpowering the Wind Dancer with a Cazadora into a Foot Stomp that led up to a climactic Teleportation Press. In the end, this was an obvious coronation of the promotion's next big star -- but how will she fare in future endeavors?
PROMO: Brackets for the Genesis Tournament
Shirin Panahi d. Yuko Asashi via submission (15:15) [94%] Both women came into this match seeking a “reset,” coming off of dispiriting losing streaks that had left them demoralized and hungry for redemption. Asashi came off as the real underdog in this match as Panahi easily overpowered her throughout the early stretches. But even as Asashi tried to quicken the pace, Panahi countered with a Neckbreaker and STF that led up to an unexpected upset victory.
Jocelynn Wahl and Esmeralda Mistica d. Arcadia Naruse (c) and Nikita Lux via pinfall (23:53) [100%] A grueling blood feud with an unexpected finish. Naruse dominated the match’s earliest stretch, pummeling both opponents with Frankensteiners and Inverted Ushigoroshis. But Wahl’s rage quickly became untenable, leading to her bloodying up both Naruse and Lux. From there, Mistica and Wahl developed a “divide-and-conquer” strategy, closing Naruse off from Lux before the new EDEN-1 Champion could make the save. This gradually became a war of attrition, as Mistica wore Nikita Lux down with a series of neckbreakers and ranas before Wahl dispatched her with nothing more than a kick to the stomach. It was a real upset that resulted in a tense stare down between Wahl and the new champion. Wahl has, without a doubt, earned herself a rematch.

EDEN-1 (episode 6) GENESIS TOURNAMENT (NIGHT 1) 12/1/20 at 7pm EST
The Genesis Tournament begins! EDEN-1 CEO Orange Watanabe has announced the creation of a new secondary belt for the fledgling promotion: the Genesis Championship. Created to herald the next generation of wrestling superstars, this title is set to be determined in a 16-person single elimination tournament. New feuds begin… and old friendships will be challenged. It’s every woman for herself. Match 1: Preview MatchArcadia Naruse (c) and Miho Imagawa vs. Evie Armitage and Esmeralda Mistica
A Tale of Two Aces. The past and future stars of women’s wrestling (and in the past, mentor and peer) join forces to take on the veritable “team of rivals” of Esmeralda Mistica and Evie Armitage, still fresh off of their recent feud. Match 2: Preview Match Shirin Panahi and Salome St. James (with Orange Watanabe) vs. Jocelynn Wahl and Gunner Hashimoto
A temporary pause in the ongoing rivalry between the Celestial Holy Army and Martial Law, as Gunner Hashimoto teams up with Jocelynn Wahl to take on the piecemeal team of Shirin Panahi and Salome St. James (who is still hungry for her first win). Match 3: Genesis Tournament (Block A) Kijo vs. Fatou Diop
The enigmatic Kijo takes on Fatou Diop, the stablemate of her erstwhile tag partner Zenobia. Diop continues to test her mettle against a veritable “best of the best” as Kijo… well, Kijo’s motives have always been mysterious and inscrutable. Match 4: Genesis Tournament (Block A) Yuko Asashi vs. Nikita Lux
Yuko Asashi seeks to redeem herself after a string of losses, proving herself an invaluable member of the Celestial Holy Army in a match against The Furies’ chief powerhouse Nikita Lux. Match 5: Genesis Tournament (Block A) Shino Sakamoto vs. Scatterheart
Shino Sakamoto seems unstoppable as she continues her hot streak, taking on Martial Law’s “Lethal Enforcer” Scatterheart. Will Sakamoto cement her position as the promotion’s new Ace? Or will Scatterheart stymie her momentum? Match 6: Genesis Tournament (Block A) Zenobia vs. Artemisia Frost
The animosity between Zenobia and Artemisia Frost—who have duked it out multiple times in tag competition—reaches its zenith as the two square off in their first singles match. Who will reign supreme?

Post by chazbufflewhif on Dec 10, 2020 16:42:20 GMT
QUICK RESULTS FOR EPISODE SIX
Arcadia Naruse (c) and Miho Imagawa d. Evie Armitage and Esmeralda Mistica (15:18) [81%] Jocelynn Wahl and Gunner Hashimoto d. Shirin Panahi and Salome St. James (14:51) [73%] Kijo d. Fatou Diop (13:00) [88%] Yuko Asashi d. Nikita Lux (13:56) [84%] Shino Sakamoto d. Scatterheart (17:54) [100%] Zenobia d. Artemisia Frost (21:23) [97%] FULL RESULTS FOR EPISODE SIX
Arcadia Naruse (c) and Miho Imagawa d. Evie Armitage and Esmeralda Mistica (15:18) [81%] Imagawa and Naruse demonstrated a tremendous amount of tag fluidity throughout the match — not surprising for the past and present Aces of the company. Armitage and Mistica managed to put their rivalry aside long enough to gain a brief foothold, but the two Aces swiftly closed off all avenues for victory, with Naruse countering a slew of offense from Mistica and decimated her cervical spine with a sickening Spike Murder Backdrop. Armitage tried to make the save, but it was too late — the Aces had it in the bag. Will this injury play into Mistica’s tournament match with Naruse? Or will there be an upset?
Jocelynn Wahl and Gunner Hashimoto d. Shirin Panahi and Salome St. James (14:51) [73%] Wahl and Hashimoto adeptly showed the world why they’re widely considered two titans of the wrestling industry, handily defeating the makeshift team of Panahi and St. James (along with Orange Watanabe, who continually tried—unsuccessfully—to get the honorable-to-a-fault Panahi to take a chair to her opponents). The two legends dominated much of the match, despite some spikes of creative offense from their competitors (particularly when St. James popped Hashimoto in the jaw with brass knuckles and went in for a sneaky pin). But between Wahl’s lariats and Hashimoto’s arsenal of suplexes, it was elementary. The match ended when Hashimoto countered a double-armed suplex from St. James and rolled her up in a Backslide.
Kijo d. Fatou Diop (13:00) [88%] Kijo took control of the match from its earliest beginnings, plowing Diop with a flurry of offense that culminated in her ruthlessly pounding her opponent’s head into the canvas. But Diop quickly turned the tide with a series of European Uppercuts and a Delayed Vertical Brainbuster, then transitioning into her usual catalogue of submission holds. But Kijo refused to tap out, manhandling Diop with a Black Mephisto and ultimately interrupting her momentum with an out-of-nowhere Oni Driver.
Yuko Asashi d. Nikita Lux (13:56) [84%] During the match’s inaugural stretch, Yuko Asashi seemed doomed to fail. Nikita Lux dictated the pace for long stretches of the match, luring her opponent in with strike exchanges and clubbing blows. Asashi—clearly less adept at this type of wrestling, but desperate to prove herself—complied and failed. Perhaps realizing that this was not a winning strategy, Asashi returned to her usual brand of high-octane offense. Asashi came close to clinching an early victory with a Confectionary Catastrophe (itself a wild feat of strength on someone like Lux), but Lux kicked out retorted with a pair of choke slams and Unchallenged Hate. Undaunted, Asashi kicked out and finally bested her foe with a Shazztastic Stunner and another Confectionary Catastrophe.
Match 5: Genesis Tournament (Block A) (17:54) [100%] Shino Sakamoto vs. Scatterheart Scatterheart started the match off with blunt aggression, overpowering her opponent in almost every way and seeking out a swift, dirty victory with a series of failed pin attempts. It didn’t take long for Sakamoto to reverse her fortunes, however, as she countered with an Overdriver, Gory Special, and series of dropkicks that shifted the momentum of the match. The two women put on a veritable clinic, countering and striking in equal measure (with one spot in particular—Scatterheart delivering a German Release Suplex on Sakamoto into the railing outside the ring—being particularly nasty). The bout could have continued long into the night if Sakamoto didn’t snatch a desperate victory with an out-of-nowhere Backslide that led into the finish. Scatterheart will no doubt seek retaliation for being taken out of the tournament so early.
Match 6: Genesis Tournament (Block A). (21:23) [97%] Zenobia vs. Artemisia Frost A long and furious battle. Zenobia started off hot with a Standing V-Trigger, but Frost quickly shifted the tides with a series of thigh kicks and armbars. Both women had clearly done their homework on one another, as the two scouted out each other’s moves and countered with effortless aplomb. Frost continued to work over the arm as Zenobia countered with a flurry of high-octane offense, eventually taking to the skies as her desperation grew. In the end, Zenobia took control of the match with a Mysterio-Style Canadian Destroyer and Neckbreaker that softened her opponent up for a Destino — which, in the end, sealed the deal and ensured her advancement in the tournament.

EDEN-1 (episode 7) GENESIS TOURNAMENT (NIGHT 2) 12/15/20 at 7pm EST
The Genesis Tournament continues! On Night 1, four women advanced to the next round: Yuko Asashi, Shino Sakamoto, Zenobia, and Kijo. Now we move into Night 2, where the battle to become the first-ever Genesis Champion continues.
Match 1: Preview Match Yuko Asashi and Shino Sakamoto vs. Scatterheart and Nikita Lux Building up to their eventual match against one other on Night 3, Sakamoto and Asashi briefly unite to show prove that the Celestial Holy Army is the dominant faction in EDEN-1, taking on their respective opponents from Night 1: Scatterheart and Nikita Lux.
Match 2: Preview Match Artemisia Frost and Fatou Diop vs. Kijo and Zenobia Before testing (or perhaps terminating?) their tenuous alliance in their first one-on-one bout in Night 3, Kijo and Zenobia will team up once again to swat away their Night 1 opponents: Fatou Diop and Artemisia Frost.
Match 3: Genesis Tournament (Block B) Miho Imagawa vs. Evie Armitage Still eager to redeem herself after her humiliating loss to Jocelynn Wahl in the promotion’s inaugural show, Miho Imagawa comes into this match ready to show the world why she used to be the face of women’s wrestling. Meanwhile, Evie Armitage remains hopeful that she can finally launch herself into a next stratosphere of her career by defeating the former Ace.
Match 4: Genesis Tournament (Block B) Shirin Panahi vs. Gunner Hashimoto Two powerhouses collide, as Shirin Panahi seeks to prove herself against a veritable legend of women’s wrestling: Gunner Hashimoto (whose taste for gold and accolades has not waned with age).
Match 5: Genesis Tournament (Block B) Jocelynn Wahl vs. Salome St. James In a bewildering twist of fate, perennial loser Salome St. James squares off against the promotion’s most dominant and violent competitor: former EDEN-1 Champion Jocelynn Wahl. Will Wahl make quick work of St. James? Or will she somehow eke out a dirty victory against the so-called “People’s Ace?”
Match 6: Genesis Tournament (Block B) Arcadia Naruse (c) vs. Esmeralda Mistica Still reeling from the Spike Murder Backdrop Naruse delivered during their preview match on Night 1, Esmeralda Mistica seeks to redeem herself and move on to the next round of the tournament. Naruse, on the other hand, dreams of double gold… and will do anything to legitimize herself as the promotion’s premier champion.

[My apologies for the delay. Real life has kinda derailed all of my plans for the past few months, which means I haven't had much time to keep up with this. The next two shows will be weekly, as I'd like to finish off this tournament before the end of the month.]QUICK RESULTS FOR EPISODE 7
Yuko Asashi and Shino Sakamoto d. Scatterheart and Nikita Lux (36:06) [100%] Artemisia Frost and Fatou Diop d. Kijo and Zenobia (26:52) [100%] Miho Imagawa d. Evie Armitage (9:35) [80%] Gunner Hashimoto d. Shirin Panahi (14:50) [84%] Jocelynn Wahl d. Salome St. James (17:20) [77%] Arcadia Naruse (c) d. Esmeralda Mistica (14:39) [90%]
FULL RESULTS FOR EPISODE 7
Yuko Asashi and Shino Sakamoto d. Scatterheart and Nikita Lux (36:06) [100%] Whatever animosity might exist between Asashi and Sakamoto before their Night 3 match did not hinder their performance in this match. The two remained a fluid and cohesive unit throughout, ushering in a new era of dominance for the Celestial Holy Army as the two trounced the makeshift team of Scatterheart and Lux in a nail-biting count-out finish. A spectacular opener.
Artemisia Frost and Fatou Diop d. Kijo and Zenobia (26:52) [100%] In contrast to Asashi and Sakamoto, Kijo and Zenobia blundered their way to a surprising loss, despite their long history as a formidable tag team. The two made an admirable effort, but neither could withstand the combination of Diop’s slippery holds and Frost’s destructive kicks. The whole thing devolved into utter chaos until Diop locked in Black Tuesday on Kijo, forcing her to tap. After the match, both Zenobia and Kijo seemed strangely disenchanted with one another. What will happen during their Night 3 match?
Miho Imagawa vs. Evie Armitage (9:35) [80%] The conclusion of this match was inevitable. Armitage put in a great showing, but Imagawa dominated the rookie throughout much of the match and took her opponent out in furious rush of movement. In the end, Imagawa finished Armitage off quickly with a Pole Shift Express and Celestial Deathstrike, proving to the world that she’ll always be “the Ace” of women’s wrestling.
Shirin Panahi vs. Gunner Hashimoto (14:50) [84%] Powerhouse vs. powerhouse. To the delight of everyone in attendance, both competitors delivered what the crowd desperately wanted: two big meaty women slapping meat. Panahi unleashed an entire arsenal or roll-ups and flash pins near the end, kicking out of every standing switch before Hashimoto could apply her finisher. But it didn’t matter as Hashimoto suplexed her opponent into oblivion, concluding the whole sordid affair with a big boot and Inferno of Torture.
Jocelynn Wahl vs. Salome St. James (17:20) [77%] St. James came into this match as the unexpected underdog, facing off against the former EDEN-1 World Champion in the middle of a seemingly endless losing streak. Shockingly, the self-proclaimed “Heavy Metal Succubus” fared much better than expected against Wahl, taking a beating while also using her arsenal of sneaky tricks to occasionallyget the better of her opponent. She lasted longer than anyone might have suspected, showing true signs of growth and development. But in the end, the villainous Wahl could not be denied: she demolished St. James with a Bunker Buster that finally knocked the wind out of her sails.
Arcadia Naruse (c) d. Esmeralda Mistica (14:39) [90%] Naruse declared war on Mistica within the match’s opening moments, delivering a Dangerous Knee Strike that bloodied her opponent up and all but declared her dominance as the “new Ace” of the company. Mistca did her best to regain control of the match, but Naruse proved too formidable an opponent, ending her opponent’s short-lived title aspirations with a Delayed Canadian Destroyer and Shrieking Pegasus. A fantastic match.
