  • SHINE 35 iPPV results: SHINE vs. SHIMMER vs. TNA title bout, MITB match, Blanchard vs. Ellering II

    Submitted by Craig Russell from The Orpheum in Ybor City, FL

    Rob Naylor and Leva Bates are on commentary.

    Lexie Fyfe comes out with the their version of the Money In The Bank briefcase first. During the ring entrances, Mia Yim comes out still mocking Leva Bates’ “Blue Pants” character, and is bandaged up and on crutches to further mock Leva’s current injury. Lexie announces that Ivelisse is cleared to wrestle, and she is put into this match, turning it into a 5 way for the briefcase. Elimination match rules.

    Money In The Bank Women’s Match: Kellie Skater vs. Mia Yim vs. Santana vs. Nicole Matthews vs Ivelisse

    Yim goes outside the ring, is distracted by Bates, and is counted out; Skater eliminated by Santana via Shining Star Press; Santana eliminated by Matthews via roll up and a handful of tights; Ivelisse pins Matthews with a Snap DDT and wins the briefcase.

    Maria Maria & Luscious Latasha vs. Rhia O’Reilly & Viper

    Viper performs a corner splash on Latasha. Maria then performs a cross body on Viper and rolls out of the ring. Latasha is still the legal woman and falls on Viper and pins her, so her winning streak is still intact. Viper is over already and the crowd liked her a lot.

    Kellyanne vs. Chelsea Green

    Kellyanne with a backpack stunner on Chelsea for the pin. Solid match from both of them.

    SHINE Tag Team Champions Better Than You (BTY) of Marti Belle & Jayme Jameson vs. Evie & Shazza McKenzie

    Jameson hits her “Double D” (spinning side slam) move on Evie for the pin, so BTY retain. Good match where Shazza was the underdog and played for the hot tag to Evie.

    Tessa Blanchard vs. Rachael Ellering

    TKO by Ellering on Blanchard for the pin which sets up their rubber match. Another good match from both of them. Ellering has gotten better since their first match and looked good in the ring again. After the match, Su Yung runs out to attack Ellering with Blanchard, and as they are taking her to the back, Kay Lee Ray jumps off the stage onto them all and ends up facing Blanchard in the ring. Ray slaps Blanchard before Yung attacks her from behind which leads to the next match. Ellering fights Blanchard to the back while this happens.

    Su Yung vs. Kay Lee Ray

    Yung hits “The Panic Switch” (spinning Death Valley Driver) on Ray for the pin. Worth the price of admission and possibly match of the night. Lots of back and forth and both women looked sharp. Highlights included a great missile tope by Ray and a dragon screw leg whip into the stairs on Ray by Yung.

    SHINE Champion Taylor Made vs. SHIMMER Champion Madison Eagles vs. TNA Knockouts Champion Allysin Kay — Loser drops their title

    Ivelisse turns in her briefcase, and the match becomes a 4 way title match. First pinfall wins the match. Good match, lots of moves and great energy by all four women. Ivelisse taps out Made with a leg lock/inverted cloverleaf finisher and Ivelisse is the new SHINE champion.

  • Shimmer 80 iPPV results: Heart of Shimmer champion crowned; Shayna Baszler news

    Submitted by Pat Laprade and Craig Russell

    – Attendance was roughly 500 fans from Eddie Deen’s Ranch, Dallas Texas

    12 Woman Tournament to crown the first “Heart Of Shimmer” Champion

    1st round

    – Cheerleader Melissa b Leva Bates with a Kudo Driver. Bates was cosplaying from the Kingdom Hearts video game series

    – Candice LaRae b Cherry Bomb when LeRae crucifixed Cherry Bomb’s pin attempt and reversed it into a pin of her own.

    – Nicole Savoy b LuFisto with the Savoy Lock with a Sambo lock submission. 

    – Kimber Lee b Jessicka Havok with a roll up after Cherry Bomb interfered with a Roll Up (with a handful of tights) after Cherry Bomb comes out to distract Havok.

    – Heidi Lovelace b Veda Scott with a Senton Bomb off the top rope.

    – Nicole Matthews b Crazy Mary Dobson with The Vancouver Maneuver.

    2nd round

    – Candice LaRae b Cheerleader Melissa with three “Family Show Plexes” in a row. The “Family Show Plex” is what Amber Gertner called the move on the show. The move itself is the “Ball Plex” used by Joey Ryan, but that name could not be used for obvious reasons.

    – Nicole Savoy b Kimber Lee with the Cross Arm Breaker.

    – Heidi Lovelace b Nicole Matthews with a Senton Bomb off the top rope.

    – Lenny Leonard interviewed Shayna Baszler. She said she would start at SHIMMER 81 on June 24. 

    Finals

    – Nicole Savoy b Heidi Lovelace & Candice LaRae to win the Heart title. She first eliminated LaRae with the Savoy Lock. Heidi hit her Senton Bomb with which she won her two matches but Savoy kicked out at 2. Savoy won with her Savoy Lock. Good match. 

    – Marina Shafir and Jessamyn Duke were in attendance for the show. Bayley was also there. They announced that SHIMMER 81-85 were going to be taped from June 24 to June 26 in the Chicago area. 

    – Candice LaRae was probably the star of the show with very good matches against both Cherry Bomb and Cheerleader Melissa, plus the main event. Heidi Lovelace has improved so much from the last time I saw her. She’s very very solid in the ring. LuFisto vs Savoy was also one of the best matches on the card.

    Crazy Mary Dobson over Su Yung w/ April Hunter
