THE DUTCH: RUINING YOUR HOPES AND DREAMS SINCE 1648 |
Stop #7 of the World tour took us to lovely Belfast, where we had fallout from Sin & Sacrifice. New Champions were presented, some scores were settled. Things got a bit disturbing, I got fired, and Tara Thunder retained her championship in a scintillating match that finished in a heartbreaker for the challenger.
All in all, slightly above average on your usual FFW craziness scale. Show rankings? Yup.
1. TARA THUNDER- Believe it or not, that was just Tara's first defense of her title, and she made it a good one, fending off a VERY tough Stephanie Sullivan to retain. Tara's finally getting busy again- she'll be in action at Indomitable and again at the next Breaking Point.
2. CAMILLA PAZZINI- Another top-level talent that seems so underutilized, Chunks hit it big with an out-of-nowhere spear on Samara Steele to put her into the Semifinals of the FFA, where she'll face Gray/Demidov
3. REBECKA HATE- One of the biggest upsets in FFA history, downing former Champion Emma in epic piledriver fashion. Becky don't have much time to gloat, though. She's gotta get ready for the Semifinals, and Indomitable.
4. STEPHANIE SULLIVAN- You have to feel for Steph. She clearly wanted that belt, and damn near got it, but Tara was just too tough. They say third time's a charm, and you Steph will be getting another crack at the NS belt before you know it.
5. NANCY DIETZ- Well, how about that? Famous for being Colby Morrison's punching bag in SVW, Nancy upset Jodie to put the FFW locker room on notice. I'd like to see her a bit more frequently before getting too excited, but 2-0 is a nice start.
6. SAMARA STEELE- Samara went from certain victory to having her intestines liquified in approximately 0.7 seconds, but such is the way of the wrestling. Out of the FFA with a six match losing streak snapped, Samara will be looking to rebound the next time she hits the ring.
7. LOLLIPOP- You can't ask for much better a debut than that. The first Season 11 Alum into the ring is the first to pick up a good win, cracking both Ashley Whitmore and her boyfriend.
8. EMMA MACNAMARA- The disappointments are piling up for Emma, who saw her hope at a UV title disappear at Sin & Sacrifice, then an early exit from the Femme For All in what can only be considered a massive upset. Back to the drawing board for the Hitgirl.
9. ARABELLA BLACK- Just three words: Arabella. Owns. Canada. Of her four consecutive wins dating back to April, all but one has been over Mileena Savage. Chainsaw Lollipop seems like a contender.
10. MILEENA SAVAGE- One thing Mileena WON'T be thankful for today is her inability to beat Arabella Black. Mileena's going to be going into LA and Indomitable hoping to erase some bad memories.
11. CANDI- A triumphant return to the ring after being injured at the hands of Destiny Campbell back in August. Can she be ready for the showdown against Lightning in a week?
12. JODIE GRAY- This is a bad, bad week for Jodie Gray to let off the gas, as one of the biggest matches of her career looms on Thursday. But if she looks the way she did against Nancy Dietz... Mika won't even need to cheat to beat her! (She still might. A hobby's a hobby, after all)
13. ASHLEY WHITMORE- You'd think in having your first match in seven months, you'd be a little more prepared to hit the ring. Ashley looked lost, and getting picked apart by Lollipop, despite her boyfriend interfering... that's just embarassing.
14. TARYN ROBINSON- No bueno for Taryn,, who clearly regressed from her debut to her second match. At 0-2, she's got some tough thinking to do about how she wants to go forward. I still think she can make it, but it's got to be better.
