SHOW RANKINGS: Velocity 9.12.13

YOU LIED TO US, AXL ROSE! 

During the first minutes of FFW's first ever show to come to you from an non-democratic state, The Rudos managed to completely piss off Chinese authorities while Obama half ate a Chinese flag.  That was the high point of the show, as far as FFW-Chinese relations went, and things pretty much went downhill from there, ending in a horrifying fashion. 

Needless to say, I don't think FFW would be asked back, even if we wanted to go.  Still, it was a entertaining, hectic, and, in one case, tragic show, and certainly makes things rather interesting heading into the Sin & Sacrifice PPV.  You want show rankings?  We got show rankings!

A lot of show rankings.. 

1. EMMA MACNAMARA- And just like that, a three match losing streak is snapped, giving Emma some much needed momentum heading into her match with Alysson.  She's picked the right time to start peaking. 

2. AIMEE EASTER- We're approaching the six month mark with Easter's holding that PYP contract, which means there's six months left.  Aimee will likely wait as long as she can- the briefcase has proven rather invaluable. 

3. TARA THUNDER- Four match winning streak now for She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Booked (often).  Tara was her usual efficient, brutal self. 

4. LIGHTNING- Quite possibly saved the match for her team in the Ten Femme Chaos with a sneaky strike from behind that set up Aimee's cheap shot and Emma getting the pin.  Of Poets and Prophets will enter the PPV with the upper hand after that. 

5. MADELYNE MCTAGGERT- The Blondetourage train keeps on rolling as Maddy started quick against Tabatha Belmont, and rode it to an impressive submission win. 

6.  KATE STEELE- Each of Kate Steele's last three wins have come in matches with six women involved.  This is because Kate Steele is secretly the antichrist and is wrestling solely to devour Misty Whitmore's soul.  Why Misty?  Because her soul tastes like maple syrup on pancakes. 

7. JESSIKA HEXSTAR- In a Ten Femme Chaos match, any numerical advantage you can gain for your side is a good thing. However, committing attempted murder on opponents husbands is generally considered in poor taste. 

8 MISTY WHITMORE- The expression on Misty's face during Make A Wish meant only one thing- she was visualizing Holly Adams the entire time she had that hold locked on. 

9. JO MCFARLANE- McFarlane rammed her JoJo Boots pretty far up Hanna's backside in a phenomenal bounceback win.  Jo's still wrestling at the highest level she's ever been. 

10. EILEEN AMARO- Eily did a remarkable job trying to keep her team together after her team went down to a 5-4 handicap.  That the match lasted as long as it did after Kinsey's departure is a testament to the leadership on that team. 

11. ALYSSON GARDNER- You have to give Aly credit- she used the distraction spawned by the DeCaro attack to try and win the match right there.  A for effort, even if it didn't quite play out. 

12. REBECKA HATE- Absolute heart shown by Becky as she was left in a crap situation, fighting off a three oin one as long as she could before ultimately surrendering.  There's going to be hell to pay.  

13. SAMARA STEELE- Samara took the brunt of an exchange with a desperate Becky Hate, ending up being used as a decoy for Kate to maneuver into a win.  Don't knock it.  It worked. 

14. STEPHANIE DALLINS- Steph was her usual solid self, but when push came to shove, she couldn't get to her partner for the save.  She'll want to write a different story in two weeks. 

15. LEONA VEGA- It was only by countout, and heavily assisted by Mika, but Diet Rudo got a huge bump, knocking off both members of the Hyper Tigers now.  That should give her some confidence going into S&S. 

16. HOLLY ADAMS- Yes, Holly was her dominating, immaculate self.  But still, it was just Michelle Taylor. 

17. KINSEY DECARO- You can't blame her for not sticking around after the attack on her husband, but still, it did force her team into a situation that they couldn't recover from. 

18. FREYA KANE- Freya's long-awaited debut in FFW FINALLY happened, and it... was over in five minutes as Leona and Mika snookered her into taking a countout loss. 

19. SUNNY KYOUN- Poor Sunny.  Such a nice girl, and did her best in Ten Femme.  But the machinations of the match left her hung out to dry, and she couldn't recover. 

20. HANNA ELLIOT- See you in three months!

21. LAURA STEELE- In an amazing twist, Frosted Steel broke up- at Laura's behest!  In the middle of a match!   And, as a replacement, she picked a woman with one of the worst records in the company?  Idiot. 

22. TABATHA BELMONT- Tabby may not be happy the Blondetourage is here, but when she had her big chance to do something about it, she was unable to do anything but tap out.  She probably wants that one back. 

23. CRYSTAL HATE- Hate's now lost thirteen of her last fourteen matches, which makes her a perfect replacement for the much more successful Becky Hate.   Have I mentioned that Laura Steele is an idiot? 

24. MICHELLE TAYLOR- EIGHT!
