The Huntress and The Maize. Both competitors with an insane amount of groundswell beneath them.
And an early dominance by the starch as she- [3:45] Where are you going? Yeah, get down, you're in Shanghai up there.
A kneebar on the outside- Smart thinking. Someone so tall, you gotta get after their vertical base- But the huntress fights out.
Corn Girl, pacing on the outside, probably strategizing her next move.
An interesting matchup to say the least. Corn Girl has had the power game on lock, but Neith is a beast.
Just RAGDOLLING her.
But as we know, momentum is fleeting in the rookie cup. The tides could turn at any moment.
I think Corn Girl knows she HAS to play defensively. She can't get greedy. Her blocking and evasion has been sublime- It needs to be to overcome Neith's overwhelming pressure.
[6:50] Locked in! Middle of the ring! How much fight does the Huntress have in her?!
Once again, she powers out.
We're seeing great focus. Corn Girl, targeting the legs. Neith, crucial counters on lock.
[7:20] Waist-lock and a German suplex.
Give me two.
Do I hear three?!
Pin attempt!
One!
Two!
And the hunt continues for Neith!
This audience is FEVERISH. I can barely hear the Jabroni in production and he's in my ear.
Pin attempt!
One! Two!
Not quite!
What has to be done? What does it take to overcome?
Gets her up.
Here... wee... Goooooo!
Cover!
And that's game!
Geez, I hardly had the chance to say anything.
That was absolutely blistering.
What a match.
And we've got one more high-drama semi-final on the way.
Stick around!
