The Champion Series continues as KiLynn King is now on Team Rebelion and will be facing off against Allysin Kay. Then we get a Christmas Special as Ella Envy and Roxy face The Renegade Twins!
Match 1- KiLynn King (Team Rebelion) VS Allysin Kay (Team Tyrus)
Both women grapple and try to push the other against the ropes. Allysin flips KiLynn to the mat but she is still hanging on. They both roll along the mat, neither giving up, even going outside of the ring. They continue to try to over-power each other, even going among the members of Team Rebelion sitting in the crowd. They finally break away when they're up against the apron, and they climb back into the ring.
KiLynn calls for a Test of Strength and Allysin goes for it. As both competitors try to overpower each other, KiLynn falls back and vaults KiLynn over her with her legs. KiLynn goes for the pin but purposely raises Allysin's arm to stop the count. She then grabs Allysin in the Crossface, but she goes for the ropes to break the hold.
KiLynn lands a few shots on Allysin as she recovers and flings her towards the ropes. Allysin shoulder tackles KiLynn to the mat. Both women towards each other and KiLynn kicks Allysin in the midsection. Both women try to suplex each other, with Allysin managing to slam KiLynn down first. Allysin goes for the pin but KiLynn shoves her off.
Allysin charges towards KiLynn but she bumps into the ring post as her opponent leaps over the ropes and gets on the ring apron. KiLynn lands some shots on her and then goes for the ropes. With Allysin hanging on the ropes, KiLynn leaps off and kicks her in the face, making her fall out of the ring. KiLynn gets onto the ring apron and tries to hit her with her knee but Allysin blocks it. KiLynn goes for a kick but Allysin blocks that too. She then pulls KiLynn's leg out from under her, making her fall backwards onto the ring apron.
KiLynn rolls back into the ring, now with her back in pain. Allysin climbs back into the ring as well and stomps her across her injured back. Allysin sets KiLynn up against the ropes and starts shoulder-ramming her in the back. She grabs KiLynn and slams her face into the turbuckle on the next corner of the ring. She then sets her up for a harsh chop across the chest. She goes for a second chop but KiLynn ducks under it and fires back with a chop of her own.
Allysin goes to the other side of the ring and KiLynn follows but gets kicked in the midsection. Allysin then grabs her and just slams her face-first into the mat. Allysin goes for a submission hold but KiLynn is too close to the ropes. She grabs onto them, stopping Allysin before she even had a chance to lock in the hold. Allysin hits her in the face and picks her up. KiLynn slides out of her grasp and knocked her down with a clothesline to the back of the head.
Allysin tries to punch KiLynn, but The Majesty of Muscle manages to block both of her attempts and hits her right back. She then knocks Allysin down with a clothesline. KiLynn grabs Allysin's arm and hits her with a chop across the chest. With Allysin up against the ropes, KiLynn hits her with a running elbow strike. She tries again but Allysin gets out of the way, letting her collide with the ring post.
With KiLynn up against the ring post, Allysin runs towards her. KiLynn tries to grab her for a Sunset Flip, but she is caught by Allysin. Allysin just lets herself drop, crushing KiLynn under her and she goes for the pin. KiLynn kicks out. Allysin tries to get her ready for the AK-47, but KiLynn slips from her grasp and socks her in the face. KiLynn takes this chance to hit her with a German Suplex. She goes for the pin but Allysin kicks out.
KiLynn tries to go for another suplex but Allysin drops to the mat and trips her down by ankle. She then grabs KiLynn in a submission hold and this time she is far from the ropes. KiLynn grabs onto Allysin's hands and tries to muscle her way out of the hold. Allysin lets her go but starts raining hammer punches onto her opponent's back. She then grabs her legs and tries to go for a leglock submission. KiLynn manages to kicks her off.
Both competitors get to their feet. KiLynn ducks a punch from Allysin and hits her with a Roundhouse Kick. With Allysin rocked, KiLynn grabs her in an armdrag and pulls her towards the middle of the ring. She gets her in the Crossface and with there being nowhere to go, Allysin has no choice but to tap out. KiLynn King scores eight points for Team Rebelion as they continue to advance in Round Two of the Champion Series.
Great pair of matches. It seems KiLynn switches from Team Fixers over to Team Rebelion and helped them score the win. I liked the lock up and that took both women outside the ring and back again. Allysin is an awesome opponent for KiLynn and they both fought hard. KiLynn is definitely adding the Crossface to her arsenal of finishers, so now the opponent had more to worry about than just the Excalibuster and the Kingdowm Falls. I love how she keeps adding more and more moves to her repertoire. It makes her wins unpredictable because she can beat you in so many ways.
We also see the Renegade Twins make their NWA debut, which is a good way to see them in a longer match. They have been seen on Dark and Dark Elevation, either in solo matches or tag matches, but here we get more of a chance to see their moves. And unlike AEW Dark, they commentary here actually bothered to tell Robyn and Charlette apart and correctly keep tabs on which one is in the ring at all times.
Pretty Empowered continue to be cowardly and annoying heels, with Ella yelling and complaining through most of the match and then scoring the dirty win with the tag belt to the face. To top it off, Kenzie comes in to celebrate as if she did anything (in the actual match anyway) shoving poor Roxy to the side.
We'll see what happens next as Kenzie Page is on her way to challenge NWA Champ Kamille for the title. The Christmas Special seems to have replaced this week's NWA USA, but we won't find out until we see if next Saturday skips an episode number or continues where it last left off. From what I saw, none of the matches during the special were part of the Champion Series. Stay tuned as we check out the next episode of NWA Powerrr as the Champion Series continues.
