Phoenix Rising: Grand Ascension VI Finals Night Results

Ruthless Nicole Alger: I've trained in this stuff since I was a little girl. Sorta have to when your father's the Dangerous One. Think at first he just wanted me to be able to kick anyone's ass who tried to hurt me. But turned out I was pretty good at this, I mean, look at where me and Candace are now! They said we couldn't catch a break, we couldn't win a match for anything, we didn't work as a team, you know, all the usual BS. But I'm still here! She's still here! And now we have our shot! And I can't wait! Hah, I think I sound like Felice right now, I'm almost giddy! But then I remember, we have a job to do. We're here to take one more step forward. We win, we lose, we take that next step. And I think we have a good chance to win. So Rin, Fresh, Avispa, Thief, Gold Freaks, come get some! We're ready!

The sudden sharp rise that Silver Hawk has seen continued tonight as he brought down Kellaron, and did so in fairly convincing fashion. Is it the new gear, or just a new attitude? Either way, Silver Hawk is looking strong.


A truly valiant effort to try and stop the most dangerous team in the tournament... but it wasn't to be. Mallory spent a lot of time letting Kanjirin do the work, trying to stay fresh for her Top Prospect match later...


A heartbreaker for the Limbtakers, who came up short in the semifinals against a team that was just a bit too quick for them. Rin cut off the save late, and sealed the win for her team, moving them to the finals against a team twice their size.


Natasha once again showed Listalva that she was no match for the Devil Hand... pounding the British champion ruthlessly, and claiming the Inspire Championship in dominant fashion to a shower of boos from the crowd. (And some scattered cheers.)


This was set up as a friendly match between the two sisters. Instead, it turned into an all-out war, both girls putting everything they had into the match... perhaps the bragging rights were much too important to let go of. Kae would send Eri tumbling out of the ring with one Kae Buster, then landed another dead-center in the ring to claim the win over her older sister.


This was not the Blake that Mallory Spaulding crushed weeks ago. The champion showed up in a big way here, showing the fire he lacked in their first meeting, roaring at the larger woman with a ferocity that would ultimately keep the Top Prospect title around his waist.


The SFG could not weather the Storm a second time. Anahera and Xiu Mei returned to their place on top of the tag division tonight, roaring out of the gate and never letting up for a second on the dangerous pair, culminating in Anahera's familiar Reverse Gory Bomb, and made the Rising Storm the first-ever two-time champions in Phoenix Rising.


A showcase of one of Proving Ground's best teams, and one of the community's finest... and it was barely a contest. The Excellent Blades dominated here, Donna Nobel especially showing some impressive talent as she put Elise Pichon away for the win. Truly impressive, and the Blades may yet have a shot at the new Proving Ground tag champs.


This is why Firehawk is moving into the tag division. Lance may have been venting some frustrations from last week, and absolutely wiped Firehawk out... and he may have something to say to Kileas soon enough.


It seemed inevitable, really. There's little that can be said here... except that Rin put everything she had into this match, and finally couldn't take any more from the two powerhouses. Fresh, meanwhile, didn't come in to help... what happened?


Shiana seemed determined not to let herself look vulnerable like the last meeting with Anahera. Perhaps it was fatigue, but Shiana was absolutely dominant here, wiping Anahera out in impressive fashion, and retained the Women's Championship once again, ensuring that Phoenix Rising would still not have any double champions.


Kileas was not ready for this match. That was obvious from the bell. Urani absolutely destroyed the challenger here, and brought one thing to light: is there ANYONE that can stop Urani as champion?

"Kileas, I told you before. As long as I hold this championship, you will NEVER lay hands on it. And now you know beyond the shadow of a doubt, that you cannot take it from me. There is no one in Phoenix Rising that can. Not you, not Lance, -nobody-."

"Anahera... you're one of the best in the world right now. But I'm far from ready to call it quits. Your time will come, but it's not tonight. It's not while I hold this championship. You'll come to earn the title you sought to give yourself before tonight, but right now, you're not yet ready to be called a 'goddess of war'. Not until you find another level above what you've reached."

"I told you. I TOLD YOU! Everything's been made RIGHT again! This is the way things should've been from the start before little Rachel shoved her nose where it didn't belong. I should've been the first champion. I should've been the one that carried this from day ONE! But it doesn't matter, not now. It's all been put right. The Devil Hand has taken her place at the top. And that little British whore can go home and cry about it. She was never championship material! She didn't DESERVE this! She didn't EARN this! And I did exactly what I said I'd do... I beat her into a broken heap and took her precious title home with me. You're welcome to come at me again, Heyward, because I admit it: I love beating your ass maybe a little bit too much. If you know what's best for you... you'll stay the hell down and never bother me again. But if you want another shot... I'll gladly pound you into the mat for round three."

"Not exactly the story you wanted, huh? You got your tag titles, but you didn't get mine. You're not the Top Prospect, because you couldn't step up where it mattered. With that win, I've beaten all four of you. I've made damn sure you all know that no matter what you try to claim, until you get the RESULTS, you're not any better than anyone else on Proving Ground. But I'm willing to give you four one more chance to prove you're better than that. One more chance to get one over on me. You bring your four. I'll bring mine. And you'll get one more shot at greatness."

Urani Whitemist is cancelled.
Going to dig up some stupid tweets she made years ago and get her fired.
