OPENING SEGMENT
Brand new Shimmer champion Sasha Banks comes out to open the show
.... We get s highlight package of Banks winning the gauntlet match on Shimmer #1, last eliminating Becky Lynch to become the 1st ever Shimmer champion .... Sasha puts herself over and says now Battle Queens is gonna have to stand up and take notice of the Boss ....
This brings out Becky Lynch .... Becky gets a GREAT reaction from the crowd .... The first thing she does is offer a handshake to Banks, who takes it in a show of mutual respect .... Becky takes the mic and puts Banks over and says they tore the house down .... But that was a gauntlet match .... Becky wants to see who the best is 1 on 1 .... Becky challenges Sasha to put the Shimmer title on the line at 'Breaking Barriers' .... Never one to back down, Sasha agrees to the match ....
Out comes Eva Marie along with Lei'd Tapa to interrupt .... She runs down both ladies and says the only reason Sasha is the champ is because Eva wasn't in the match .... She goes on and on about how 'all red everything' is taking over, and how she is transcending the wrestling business .... Becky speaks up and says she is going to shit Eva up once and for all tonight, and that match starts NOW!
Match 1: singles match
Becky Lynch
- vs -
Eva Marie w/ Lei'd TapaSTORYLINES: These two have had issues ever since they came into Battle Queens .... Eva had the silver spoon mentality, she thinks everything should just be handed to her because she is a maxim cover girl .... Becky has worked for this since she was 15 years old, and promises to make Eva pay her dues in this business one way or the other .... But after all the run-ins they have had, this is their first one on one meeting ....Sasha remains at ringside to do commentary .... She puts over Becky and the war they went through at Shimmer 1, but says she walked out with the title and that's the same way it will be at BREAKING BARRIERS .... Becky dominates the match, but Eva distracts the ref just long enough for Tapa to get in a cheap shot .... Eva goes outside and talks trash to Banks, which nearly causes Sasha to get up and leave the announce table .... Tapa gets in Sasha's face and they have a staredown .... Becky makes a comeback and runs wild on Eva, but Tapa tries to get involved again .... This time Banks leaves the table and pulls Tapa down off the apron! Tapa nails Banks, but then Becky takes out Tapa with a suicide dive! Eva hits a baseball slide into Sasha and knocks her right into Becky! Becky and Sasha argue, meanwhile the ref is counting and Becky Lynch is counted out!!!!
Becky and Sasha argue outside while Eva celebrates like she's just won a world title .... Becky and Sasha hit the ring and attack Eva, and Lei'd Tapa tries to save her boss but she gets taken out too! Sasha puts Tapa in the Bank Statement and Becky puts Eva in the 'disarm-her' at the same time!!!! They both let go and then get in each other's face, while Banks holds up the Shimmer title ....
IN THE BACK: Veda Scott is with Hamada backstage .... Scott says she has run all the numbers and the numbers say we will have a new champion tonight .... But Veda wants a little more insurance and since Vickie Guerrero refused to do anything about Havok putting her in this neck brace, she is putting a bounty out on her! .... Scott promises Havok that she won't make it to the main event tonight ....IN-RING SEGMENT - Vickie Guerrero is in the ring and she brings out Knockout champion Lita and her main nemesis Nikki Bella .... She says this issue between them has gone on long enough and it's time they finish it .... Nikki agrees that, after they both took a trip to the hospital last week, their issue STILL wasn't settled .... Vickie books them in one final showdown, a lumberjack match, at BREAKING BARRIERS ....
This brings out Naomi, who asks what about her .... She beat Lita by count out a few shows ago, and that's because Nikki got involved .... If she wouldn't have gotten involved then Naomi says she would have pinned Lita in the middle of the ring! Naomi wants Nikki's spot, but Nikki says the only way she gets it is to take it .... Naomi gets in a cheap shot on Nikki and slams her into the steps outside the ring .... Then Naomi challenges her to a match while she's down! To everyone's surprise, Nikki still wants to fight and we have an impromptu match!
Match 2: Singles Match
Nikki Bella w/ Brie Bella
- vs -
NaomiSTORYLINES: Nikki and Lita have waged war since the Bellas debuted in Battle Queens .... Meanwhile, Naomi is probably the most athletic woman in Battle Queens and she has been trying to make a name for herself .... The match starts with Naomi in control due to the earlier attack .... She maintains control for the majority of the contest, but despite this Nikki battles back .... Naomi regains the advantage late in the match, but misses her signature split-legged moonsault as Nikki gets her knees up .... This allows Nikki to nail her with the 'Rack Attack' and get the 3 count ....
After the match, Lita attacks Nikki .... Brie is helpless to stop her because her arm is still in a sling .... Lita grabs 2 chairs from ringside and is going to give Nikki the con-chair-to but referees hit the ring and stop her .... Lita tells Nikki this ends at BREAKING BARRIERS ....
BACKSTAGE: Maryse attacks Jessicka Havok in the locker room as Havok is putting her gear on .... It doesn't last long as Havok turns the tide and beats the shit out of Maryse and leaves her laying in the locker room ....Match 3: singles match
'The Huntress' Ivelisse Velez
- vs -
Gina CaranoSTORYLINES: Carano is a main stream star, having appeared in several movies as well as being a pioneer in women's mma .... Her career has transitioned well into wrestling as she has racked up several victories, and now she wants the big fight for the Battle Queens title .... Ivelisse, meanwhile, is quietly one of BQ's top stars, and she thinks she deserves the recognition over Carano, who hasn't paid her dues in wrestling .... Ivelisse feels that Carano will have to go through her if she wants to get to Havok .... Carano is ferocious in this match, as she obviously has something to prove .... But Ivelisse has mma training as well and she can bring it too .... These 2 beat the hell out of each other with strikes, but Gina surprises everyone by pulling out some wrestling holds too .... She drills Ivelisse with a belly to belly suplex for a close 2 .... Ivelisse locks on a front guillotine choke that nearly gets her the win, but Gina escapes .... Gina locks on a triangle choke, but Ivelisse rolls her into a pin which forces Gina to release the hold or be pinned .... Ivelisse hits the vertigo kick and has Gina rocked, but when Ivelisse moves in Gina rolls outside .... Ivelisse takes her out with a suicide dive! Back in the ring, Ivelisse goes for the double arm DDT but Gina reverses out of it and hits an exploder suplex into the turnbuckle! She locks on the triangle choke again on Ivelisse! This time she is trapped in the middle of the ring! Ivelisse refuses to tap, and Gina hammers her with elbow strikes to the head while she is trapped in the triangle choke! Ivelisse cannot defend herself, and she stops responding to the ref and the ref has no choice but to put a stop to the match ....
The fans applaud BOTH ladies after that brutal match .... Carano offers a handshake to Ivelisse afterwards, but a dejected Ivelisse just walks out of the ring .... BRITT MCHENRY joins Gina in the ring, and gets her comments .... Gina says she just got her stamp of approval, and she wants the BIG fight! Consider this a challenge to whoever wins the main event .... She wants the Battle Queens title ....
VIDEO PACKAGE - we get a package hyping the ladder match for the Queen of the Ring crown between Charlotte and Tessa Blanchard coming up at BREAKING BARRIERS .... BACKSTAGE - we see a dark room filled with a bunch of porcelain dolls .... Then we see Mia Yim and Su Yung and they are wearing white theater masks over their faces .... They cut a promo on the Canadian Ninjas about what happened on the last volume of Battle Queens .... They want their rematch for the tag titles and they want it at BREAKING BARRIERS .... Su Yung ends the interview by spraying red mist at the camera .... MAIN EVENT: For the Battle Queens title
(Champion) Jessicka Havok
- vs -
Ayako Hamada w/ Veda ScottSTORYLINES: This match has been a long time in the making as Hamada has targeted Havok since the day she stepped into Battle Queens .... Havok has held the title for over 18 months, and has turned back all challengers and been within an eyelash of being the world champion .... But Veda Scott and her new 'Firm' has made it her mission to make sure Havok does not remain the champion for much longer .... This match is even more hard-hitting than the previous match because these two genuinely don't like each other and both prefer the 'stiff' style .... At one point they are just standing toe to toe in the ring and daring the other one to hit them harder .... The match turns into a brawl and then spills outside but the ref just lets it go .... Havok gets the advantage and takes Hamada to the announce table, but Hamada turns the tide and puts Havok through the table with a power bomb! Hamada tosses Havok back in the ring, but Havok kicks out at 2!!!! Hamada goes for the AP Cross but Havok counters and drills her with the Air Raid Crash! Both ladies are down .... Havok up to her feet, but Hamada ducks the rainmaker and fires back with a spinning back fist! Havok staggers, but then explodes out of nowhere with a clothesline from hell!!!! Havok locks the Death Machine (rings of Saturn) on Hamada! It looks like Hamada is about to tap and Veda gets on the apron and distracts the ref! Out of the back the Dollhouse appears and Su Yung sprays the red mist in Havok's eyes!!!! The Dollhouse hit the ring and attack Havok, and it is a 4 on 1 beat down as Veda joins in .... The ref calls for the bell ....
The attack continues after the match until out of the back runs Gina Carano! This causes everyone in the ring to back down and leave as Gina makes the save .... Gina goes outside and grabs the Battle Queens title, then drags Havok to her feet .... She holds the title up and says something to Havok, then shoves the title in her chest and walks off leaving Havok to stare her down ....
