MIA STEVENS vs MAX IRONSIDE
Before the bell stops ringing, newcomer Mia Stevens launches herself from the corner with a springboard crossbody, almost flattening Max Ironside! He battles back, trying to escape a Thesz press but she turns that into a kneebar. Max hooks the rope, she releases and then immediately catches him with Party's Over (Ankle Lock). Ironside manages to roll through and Mia connects on a superkick, driving him back into the corner. Max fires in some one-handed chops to create space but whiffs on a knee lift – OH NO! Beauty Lock (Kimura Lock) in the middle of the ring and Max has nowhere to go, forcing him to submit!
WINNER (VIA SUBMISSION): MIA STEVENS

BLACKWOOD BROTHERS vs DEATHRIDERS
We've got some quick teamwork from the Blackwoods, focusing on hard-hitting before getting cut off by some dirty moves courtesy of the Deathriders. Lilith gets tagged in and flips off Blake who's so unimpressed that he nails a shoulder tackle. Lilith lands hard on her back, and Blackwood goes for the mount only to have Lilith catch him with an eye rake that sends Blackwood rolling aside. She immediately tags out to her sister! Blackwood stumbles but misses the tag before he's cut down with a chopblock to the knee – OH NO! Parker-Go-Round (leg-trap sunset flip powerbomb) as he staggers back and Blake Blackwood is down and out! Kaya drops for the cover!
ONE!
TW—NO!
Blade crashes in to break up the count but when he turns around, Lilith nails him with a perfectly timed soccer kick to the junk! Back up, Blake ducks under a telegraphed lariat and grabbing a handful of hair, goes for an Irish whip. Kaya counters, and sends Blackwood into the ropes. Lilith sees that Blackwood is going for a Thesz press, and she grabs him by the ankle, hauling him back only for it to turn into a two-on-one against Lilith before the crowd goes absolutely insane! SOMEONE'S HOPPING OVER THE BARRIER! They slide into the ring and lower the hood they've got on, revealing that distinctive split-dyed hair! HOLY SHIT, IT'S JESSI OZBORNE! THE BADDEST QUEEN OF CHAOS HAS ARRIVED IN RENO!
The match devolves into an all-out brawl, ending in Neil Rana waving it off and the Blackwood Brothers slink back up the ramp with their tails between their legs, leaving THE QUEENS OF CHAOS to stand tall in the ring, soaking up the reaction of the house show crowd!
WINNER: NO CONTEST
The detective starts off with a microphone, asking if Jessica knows anything about what happened to poor Lucy the Showgirl backstage at Revolution. She shakes her head quickly, saying she didn't see a thing since she was so busy taking notes for Summer Page on the new talent. ARIA keeps asking and Jessica keeps denying any knowledge until she gets frustated and lashes out, connecting with a vicious instep stomp. ARIA staggers back and the match is off to a brisk pace with some back and forth brawling. Jessica telegraphs her next strike and The Sacred Detective sees that coming a mile off – REVERSAL INTO A SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX! Jessica hits hard but she immediately slides out of the ring, looking for a break from the onslaught. Suicide Dive into a tornado DDT on the floor. ARIA scoops Jessica up and drops her in the ring like a sack of potatoes. She dives between the ropes and rolls to her feet, colliding with a diving shoulder to Jessica's knee. Jessica goes down, obviously in pain. Before she can get out of the way, ARIA springboards off the second rope with an elbow drop on the same knee. Backing off, she stays out of range of Jessica's hands, letting her up only to level her with Russian legsweep! Jessica staggers up, right into the patented J4A (running knee strike)! She's down and ARIA drops for the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
WINNER (VIA PINFALL): ARIA
QUEENS OF VIOLENCE vs THE UNKILLABLES
In their first official Unity match, The Queens look ready to tear things apart. In Season 2, they took on Coda in a handcap match and sent her packing to the injury list. Can they repeat here? The Unkillables seem bent on making sure that doesn't happen, coming in with hard strikes and a flurry of action that keeps The Queens on their toes. The turning point comes when Jitsuko Hinata comes in like a house on fire, colliding with Jason Cassidy. The Zombie explodes into action, charging at Cassidy and driving him into the corner with a spear that turns into a knee strike to the midsection on impact. Cassidy fires back with an elbow strike that catches Hinata in the nose – she doesn't back off. She doesn't even look like she felt it at all as she dives in, forcing JC onto the backfoot before sweeping him off his feet like it's an MMA fight. She gets him into rear guard but he elbows her in the face again. Momentary break only because her head snapped back and Cassidy fires in some hard punches. He manages to pull them back up and he shoves Hinata off into the ropes. Shoulder block to the face and Hinata is down. Cassidy goes for a stomp but gets rolled through into a small package!
Reversal!
Another reversal!
Cassidy nails a knee to the midsection this time. He goes for a Half n Half Suplex – ANOTHER REVERSAL RIGHT INTO A KIMURA! JC should be able to counter this but he's already weakened from all the earlier strike damage and he can't break free before the newest member has it sunk in deep! AKUDAMA looks like he's going to interfere for the save but he gets pulled off the apron by Jun and Aoi who are happy to keep him occupied on the floor. Cassidy taps out, having no choice. Another big win for The Queens of Violence! Is this going to put them in line for a Unity Title shot? Not if Raspberry Lemonade has anything to say about it. Those two teams will collide on Revolution!
WINNER (VIA SUBMISSION): QUEENS OF VIOLENCE
Jessie starts off fast, dictating the pace in an attempt to put tag specialist Zelda off balance. She gets a kick to the leg to start and drives Zelda back against the ropes. Fischer fires back with some stiff punches but most of them connect with air as Jessie dodges and slips around behind – SNAPMARE TAKEDOWN! Salco's showing No Remorse, laying in those arm-trapped elbow strikes to the head/neck of Zelda before she gets shucked off and shoved at the ropes. Zelda goes for a dropkick to the knee but Salco dives in and snatches Zelda. It looks like she's going for that patented bomb but when Fischer fights it, Jessie transitions out, nails a wicked clubbing forearm to the face and then hits the Circle Pit (springboard tornado DDT)! Zelda Fischer is down and out, and Salco picks up a nice debut win!
WINNER (VIA PINFALL): JESSIE SALCO
Blade Lopez is on the defensive right away as Kasey Kash comes at him swinging – IMPRESSIVE CHAIN OFFENSE! He goes from a spinning backfist into a ripcord kappo kick and then follows that with a tiger driver! Blade doesn't seem to even know where he is anymore as Kash hauls him back up, scooping him up for a flapjack before dropping him ON HIS HEAD! Lopez is down and Kash unloads on him. The Lucker Stomp (curb stomp) seals the deal and picks up the decisive win. Lopez isn't moving but Kasey Kash is happy to hop up on the second rope, shouting into the hard camera that he wants a REAL challenge on Revolution!
WINNER (VIA PINFALL): KASEY KASH
WENDIGO vs JACKI O'LANTERN
Jacki O'Lantern has a huge smile on her face as she holds out her hand, looking for a respectful shake before the bell rings. Wendigo stares at the hand for a moment, those colorless eyes fixed on Jacki before throwing her head back and letting loose a primal scream. Wendigo charges but Jacki sidesteps and arm drags her to the canvas. Wendigo skids and spins around, lurching back to her feet. The two collide, moving into a collar-and-elbow that ends when Wendigo sends Jacki packing to the ropes – she hooks and avoids a deadly spinning elbow. Wendigo catches Jacki's arm when she throws a discus forearm and flings her down on the canvas! She dives in for a Thesz press – OH SHIT! SHE'S TRYING TO BITE JACKI'S FACE! THE QUEEN OF TRICKERY GETS A KNEE UP AND SHOVES WENDIGO OFF!
Wendigo pops back up like a demonic jack in the box but Jacki is ready to damn near decapitate The Last Monster with her patented Sugar Rush (buzz kick)! The crowd is on their feet, cheering wildly as Jacki drags Wendigo up, sending her into the corner. She wastes no time, immediately charging into the corner, nailing a double knee to the middle of Wendigo's back! Octopus stretch leaves Wendigo trapped but a few bites to the exposed skin of O'Lantern has that hold broken pretty quickly. They reset and Wendigo nails a back elbow – SHE'S GOING FOR THE RED HOWL! The strikes connect (right spinning elbow, left back fist) but Jacki counters the lungblower! Black Cat Crossing (Taco Driver) and Wendigo's shoulders are down!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Absolutely huge win for fan favorite Jacki O'Lantern, who's clearly getting back on track and ready to take the company by storm in Season 3!
WINNER (VIA PINFALL): JACKI O'LANTERN
