Santana -vs- Taryn TerrellSTORYLINES: This match stems from their confrontation on the last Battle Queens episode after Taryn walked out on Santana and Alexa Bliss during a 6 woman tag team match .... Santana confronted her after the match, which led to the 2 brawling backstage at Full Sail ....Solid opener .... The crowd is hating on Taryn from the start, and she fits the heel role naturally against Santana, who has the down home American girl next door look .... Santana gets punished, but rallies with the support of the fans .... Taryn scores out of nowhere with an RKO, but Santana rolls outside to prevent being pinned .... Taryn follows her out and they brawl, but Santana sends Taryn into the ringpost! The ref puts the count on both ladies, and Santana is able to slide in at 8 while Taryn is unable to make it back in .... Santana gets the win by countout ....

VIDEO PACKAGE - Nikki Bella promo .... She is wearing a face guard due to Lita delivering multiple Twist of Fates on the Knockout title belt .... Nikki cuts a promo, saying she will be back at Full Sail Studios next week and she will be looking for Lita .... She doesn't care if it's for the title anymore, she just wants revenge .... Back in the arena, Veda Scott makes her entrance carrying her trademark laptop ....
Veda opens the laptop and punches in a few numbers .... She takes the mic and talks about numbers never lie .... And her numbers are always solid .... She says she went to Japan and brought their biggest female star to the United States .... It's not Kana or Malia Hosaka or the Trinity .... It's this woman: Ayako Hamada!!!! Hamada comes out as Veda continues to talk, and she says that they have a challenge to use to the Battle Queens champion .... It doesn't matter who Jessicka Havok has beaten, she cannot claim to be champion until she defeats the greatest international star in the world!
Scott gets her answer, but it doesn't come from Jessicka Havok .... Instead, we get Ivelisse out to the ring ....
Ivelisse wants to know who the hell they are .... Just because Veda brings in someone from Japan doesn't put them first in line for a title shot .... Ivelisse has been here since day 1 .... Ivelisse is the one that brought down Valkyrie, and she's a former Knockout champion .... And in case you didn't know, she's the baddest bitch in the building .... If Hamada wants a title shot, she's gonna have to go through Ivelisse to get it! Veda punches in some keys on her laptop, and she says the numbers are not in ivelisse'so favor .... Tonight, Hamada will destroy her and then it's on to Havok and the Battle Queens title!

Gina Carano -vs- Eve TorresSTORYLINES: Gina is the former face of women's Mixed Martial Arts .... Eve has training in MMA as well, and she has trained with the Gracie's .... Gina is one of the highest profile crossovers between MMA and wrestling, but Eve says Gina doesn't belong in this world, while she considers herself the best of both worlds .... Eve is determined to spoil Gina's return to Battle Queens .... Torres cheap shots Gina to open the match and gets a little offense, but Gina eventually has enough of that and gets a judo takedown and locks in a submission .... Eve has to go to the ropes to break .... Eve with another cheap shot and then a spinning neckbreaker and for the first time Gina looks in trouble .... Gina rallies, catching her in a belly to belly then goes into the ground and pound .... The ref pulls her off, allowing Eve to go for the big boot but Gina side-steps and drops her on her head with a German suplex .... Gina holds on for a 2nd German suplex, then slaps on a rear naked choke for the tap out win! Gina Carano makes a successful return to Battle Queens ....
VIDEO PACKAGE - we see the altercation between Eva Marie and Becky Lynch from the last episode of Battle Queens .... Eva's bodyguard Lei'd Tapa got involved and laid out Becky, which has led to tonight match ....The match is supposed to be Eva Marie vs Becky Lynch, but before the match starts Eva says she won't be wrestling .... She says wrestling Becky will hurt her public image because she should only be in matches against top stars .... She plugs Lei'd Tapa into the match instead ....

She does not like the fact that Eva has just come on the scene and expects everything handed to her ....Becky doesn't let the size of Tapa keep her from taking her head-on .... Tapa fights her off with her superior strength, but Becky targets the arm .... Tapa misses a charge and smacks her shoulder on the ring post, then turns around right into a divorce court from Becky .... Lynch goes for the 'Becks Plex' but Tapa elbows out and goozles her for the double choke bomb .... Becky counters into the 'Disarm-Her!' Tapa looks like she might tap out, but Eva hits the ring and attacks her! The ref has no choice but to call for the bell and disqualify Tapa ....
After the bell sounds it's a 2 on 1 attack on Becky Lynch .... Tapa hits the choke bomb, then Eva lays her out with the 'Red Dawn' (sliced bread #2) .... Eva poses, and they leave Becky laid out ....
BACKSTAGE - Naomi promo .... She is the most athletic and amazing diva on this roster, and she is not going to wait around for someone to give her an opportunity, she is going to take it ....

The former Knockout champion is also one of the most impressive strikers in the business .... Veda Scott is on commentary and she does nothing but run down Jessicka Havok .... In the ring Ivelisse and Hamada attack each other with very stiff strikes .... Hamada is the bigger of the two and she starts to wear down Ivelisse with rest holds, but Ivelisse does not let up with the strikes ....

Hamada stops her offense with the AP Cross for a close 2 as well .... Hamada goes for the Kimura, but Ivelisse counters into a guillotine choke! Hamada fades, but at the last second she fights out with a Ki Krusher .... Both ladies are down .... Jessicka Havok shows up at ringside and confronts Veda Scott about all the shit she has been talking on commentary and on Twitter .... Hamada leaves the ring and gets in between Havok and Veda, and there is a staredown .... From the ring, Ivelisse hits a suicide dive that wipes them BOTH out!!!! Holy shit!!!! All three are down, but as they get up it turns into a brawl between all 3 ladies on the outside! The ref is letting this one go! Havok goes for the rainmaker on Hamada, but she ducks and Havok wipes out Ivelisse instead!!!! Hamada slides into the ring and her and Havok lock eyes again .... Meanwhile, Veda Scott grabs Ivelisse and tosses her limp body back in the ring .... Hamada capitalizes by hitting the Hamada Driver (cross-legged michinoku driver) for the 1 ... 2 ... 3!

They quickly captured the Battle Queens tag team titles, but dissension began to build as they lost the titles to the Canadian Ninjas .... That finally boiled over during the Queen of the Ring match, when Tessa turned on Charlotte and attacked her .... Tessa plays a lot of mind games with Charlotte to start, like bailing out of the ring just before the lockup .... Charlotte finally has had enough and she pursues her outside and they brawl .... Tessa grabs a chair, but Charlotte keeps her from using it and she just drops it outside (remember this for later)Charlotte lights Tessa up with signature chops, then tosses her back in and drops the knee across her head .... Tessa escapes again outside .... Charlotte goes after her again but it's a trap as Tessa pulls her leg under the ropes and slams it into the apron .... Tessa goes to work on the same knee that Sasha worked on in the last Battle Queens episode .... Tessa locks Charlotte in the figure four around the ring post, doing more damage to the knee .... She mocks Charlotte, letting out 'Woooooo!' chants .... Charlotte catches her in the 'Charlottes Web' for a close 2, but gets knocked down with a clothesline .... Charlotte reverses another clothesline into the hangman neckbreaker, then spears Tessa to the mat! Charlotte is limping, but she goes up top .... Moonsault connects but she hurts her knee even further! She can't make the pin .... Both ladies are down and the ref starts the count, but they are both up at 8 .... Tessa grabs Charlotte and goes for the 'Symbol of Excellence' (slingshot back suplex into a facebuster) but Charlotte flips out and lands on her feet behind her .... NATURAL SELECTION!!!! Tessa instinctively rolls to the floor to keep from being pinned .... Charlotte tries to go after her but Tessa grabs the steel chair that she dropped on the floor earlier and whacks Charlotte in her injured knee! Tessa quickly slides in the ring and locks Charlotte in the figure four!!!! Charlotte fights to get out, refusing to tap, but Tessa grabs the ropes for extra leverage .... Charlotte passes out while locked in the hold, and her shoulders hit the mat .... The ref counts 1 ... 2 ... 3!
Tessa celebrates like she has won the world title, and she proclaims herself the new 'Queen' .... She spits on Charlotte, who is still laying on the mat being tended to by the trainers .... Tessa stands tall as the show ends ....
