00:00Welcome everyone to Ring of Auto Wrestling. It's here with Riccoboni and Caprice Coleman here tonight.
00:05A huge matchup in the women's division. CMLL's La Catalina takes on STP's treasured.
00:13And kicking things off.
00:15A matchup in our women's division.
00:19The Fall League Contest is scheduled for one fall with a 20 minute time limit.
00:24Introducing first, accompanied by the infantry from Washington DC, the Afropunk, Trish Adora!
00:35Trish Adora returns successfully from injury.
00:39Picking up a huge win against Rachel Ellering two weeks ago.
00:45And with the Women's Pure Championship on the way, Caprice, you know that Trish Adora wants to put her hat in that ring.
00:52I believe she probably wanted a more qualified forward, one of the pure wrestlers we have in the women's division.
00:59Don't remember that military wrestling background that Trish Adora deploys.
01:03Could be a big skill in that tournament. Huge test tonight though.
01:06And her opponent from Santiago, Chile, La Catalina!
01:12Well, we know six competitors in the tournament. Each of these women would be great additions.
01:19La Catalina is making her entrance now as challenge for both the Women's World Television and Women's World titles.
01:27Coming about as close as you can to winning without leaving with the gold.
01:30It's got to be equal parts inspiring, but also maybe that little voice in the back of her head, Caprice, pushing her toward maybe the pure tournament.
01:40Tell you what, man, when she came in, she came in the deep end of the pool, have proven herself strong.
01:45Every time she's been out there, I'm a fan of La Catalina, but Trish Adora has been around a long time and has proven herself time and time again,
01:51being able to repolish herself and step back in the ring.
01:55Well, what a way to kick things off this week.
01:59Code of Honor adhere to.
02:00Stephon Smith calls for the belt and we are off.
02:02Of course, we mentioned La Catalina, a native of Chile who found her success in Mexico representing CMLL.
02:08AEW is heading to Mexico for the first time.
02:11Live Wednesday, June 18th, Arena Mexico.
02:14One of the most famous arenas in the world.
02:16Grand Slam Mexico coming your way in just three weeks time.
02:20Look at that.
02:21Adora.
02:22Yeah.
02:24You know Trish Adora was a combat specialist in the military.
02:29And then that's where these rear waist locks, high angle takedowns, hand-to-hand combat, the grappling comes into play.
02:40Beautiful side headlock takeover there by Catalina.
02:43Abbott chess player is Trish Adora.
02:45Catalina giving everything she's got.
02:46I see Trish Adora is not in a hurry though.
02:48Being able to keep her poise about her.
02:51Trying to maintain a quick base.
02:53There you go.
02:54That base of Trish Adora is hard to break, man.
02:58Those strong legs.
03:00Ducks to the right.
03:01Oh, and Catalina.
03:02Nice arm drag.
03:04And again.
03:05Adora, who's normally all about that base, couldn't sink down enough as Catalina.
03:09Catalina about to leverage, man.
03:11That's what makes Catalina so smart.
03:13She's came in deep into the pool.
03:14But she's shown she has a lot of experience and knows how to do a lot of things with different opponents.
03:19No matter what size they are.
03:21Ooh.
03:22Well, this is a great testing ground.
03:23I hate to use our proving ground.
03:24That's a match style.
03:26But really for both women.
03:28A measuring stick.
03:30And misdirection is a sample of the things that Catalina is capable of.
03:34Wow.
03:37We heard last week Billy Starks, the sixth entrant to the Women's Pure Tournament.
03:43I understand immediately following this bout we're going to hear from one of the six.
03:46What in the world?
03:48And electric chair position.
03:50Adora trying to fight out of it does.
03:53Ooh.
03:57Kind of curious what Catalina had in mind with that electric chair position.
03:59But we're not going to find out the way Trish pulling things in the center of the ring.
04:03Trish must have a submission in mind.
04:05Oh, my goodness.
04:06Ooh.
04:07They're right there turning about the neck.
04:09Not going to forget that during the whole match.
04:11It's like instant whiplash, Riccoboni.
04:14Oh, I can't even imagine.
04:15And maybe working toward the neck.
04:18Adora likes to go to that STF as we saw Tiana Purrazzo do as well.
04:23The STF and Lariat Tubman.
04:24Everything goes toward the neck with Trish Adora.
04:26She's a headhunter.
04:27Absolutely.
04:28And look at this.
04:30Ooh.
04:31Ring style move here.
04:32Yes, sir.
04:34Proving that great wrestling ability that she has.
04:37Training, like I said, the military also training with New Japan.
04:40Oh, my goodness.
04:42Right there tearing at the delts.
04:43The shoulder blades.
04:45Could have dislocated the shoulder there.
04:47Catalina staying with that arm.
04:49A lot of times you can work on an arm or body part that opens your head up
04:52because you're holding your arms together.
04:54And it opens that head up.
04:55Trish Adora knows what she's doing here.
04:56Yeah.
04:57Yeah.
04:58Well, and putting the pressure on the shoulder of Catalina with the wrist, with the fingers.
05:03Stepping over and through.
05:05Page is out of, you mentioned New Japan, the New Japan Academy.
05:07Page is out of Rocky Romero's playbook.
05:09We saw him this past Sunday in the buy-in.
05:13Oh, goodness.
05:17No strangers to shortcuts.
05:19Or Rocky Romero.
05:21And now Trish Adora, who's finding the path of least resistance, which is helping her success right now.
05:26She hasn't done anything wrong here.
05:27And staying with that arm has made it hard for Catalina to be able to grab hold to anything.
05:34Another submission here.
05:36Yes, indeed.
05:38A little bit risky, but worth the reward.
05:40Great finding those legs to trap them so she can really wrench that shoulder.
05:46That rotator cuff in particular, as Catalina trying to fight out.
05:50Striking the lower back, she does.
05:52But the strength of Adora.
05:54My goodness.
05:55Like a shoulder breaker, neck breaker combination.
05:58One.
05:59Two.
06:00Already hyperextending at the knees and shoulder area pulling at the delts.
06:04People say people don't come in with a game plan.
06:06This is a game plan.
06:07Trish Adora has came in.
06:08That drop also on the back of the neck of Catalina.
06:11Trish Adora is warming up the head of Catalina, ready to take it off.
06:16Love this game plan right now for Madora.
06:18Into the corner.
06:19It's Catalina!
06:20Knee out of nowhere.
06:22Catalina needed that knee.
06:24If for nothing else Caprice needed it to slow down the match, to slow down the momentum, you're absolutely right.
06:30But it now has reset the match and both competitors are back at square one.
06:35And knowing the condition of Catalina, this is anybody's match now.
06:38Trish Adora may be the first one to her feet.
06:42Oh, and both women.
06:44About the same time as Catalina blocking two.
06:46Returning fire.
06:47Four.
06:48Five.
06:49And look at the forearms.
06:50The elbows.
06:51Into the chest of Adora.
06:52Adora just creates space.
06:54Whoa!
06:55Dropped to a hole.
06:56Sometimes that space is what the other opponent needed.
06:58That's what Catalina needed.
06:59To get the advantage.
07:01Makes the most of it.
07:02Dropkick now.
07:03Adora is rattled.
07:06Catalina butterflying the arms.
07:08And got it!
07:09The face buster!
07:10Trish Adora may be out, Riccoboni.
07:13That letting it flush.
07:14One!
07:15Two!
07:16Two!
07:17Wow!
07:18Two only!
07:19You see a little attitude there from Catalina.
07:23A little assertion there, and I like it.
07:25Well, both women are on the cusp of something great here in Ring of Honor.
07:31As Adora goes downstairs for the German.
07:34Two!
07:35No!
07:36Look at the bridge on that German to the tiptoes.
07:38The conditioning that Trish Adora has to be in.
07:41She's Larrick.
07:42That Larrick.
07:43Nice punch there.
07:44Oh!
07:46Straight right.
07:47Good decision.
07:48I think Catalina thought the Larrick was coming also.
07:51Yes!
07:52Wow!
07:54Swinging backbreaker.
07:55Plants Catalina.
07:56Leg hoots.
07:57One!
07:58Two!
07:59No!
08:00Two!
08:01And seven-eighths again!
08:02Catalina!
08:03Barely kicking out!
08:04Trish wondering what she has to do to put Catalina away, but Trish is wrestling the perfect match.
08:08If you ask me, she just has to stay with it.
08:13And the crowd coming alive for this great bout here as Adora planting Catalina up top.
08:21You think Adora let me borrow a dollar, Riccoboni?
08:23Well, never mind.
08:25Maybe if she wins, if she can hit this superplex she's looking for here.
08:29She's got it right on her thigh.
08:30She's got it right on her thigh.
08:31Maybe going back for that submission.
08:33It's Catalina driving in the forearm.
08:36We're in the danger zone, Catalina!
08:39Trish holding on.
08:40Holding on for dear life here.
08:42She knows what's in play.
08:44Catalina kicks the leg out from under, knocking the balance off of Trish.
08:48Here's that electric chair again, Riccoboni.
08:49Here we go, Catalina!
08:51Plants Adora!
08:52Electric chair drop!
08:53She tried that earlier, was unsuccessful.
08:56Successful this time and now going to the top.
08:58She may be trying to put it away.
09:00That splash!
09:02All the way up top, Caprice!
09:04It's La Catalina with a big splash!
09:08Leg hug!
09:09Two and that's it!
09:12Here's your winner, La Catalina!
09:16Bounce back victory for title contender, La Catalina!
09:24And with the Women's Pure Championship tournament on the horizon, you gotta think, was that enough to impress?
09:33She's making a call for a title there.
09:35I'm impressed.
09:36I mean, any winner with Trisha Doerr is big and Trisha Doerr wrestled a perfect game.
09:40If you ask me, you gotta show respect here.
09:43Yeah.
09:44This knows that she's been beat.
09:45That's the handshake.
09:46That's respect right there.
09:47Yeah.
09:48Code of Honor adhere to it.
09:50Corrupt to me, both of these competitors would be in the tournament tomorrow.
09:53Great showing from each, but La Catalina, victorious fans.
09:57Let's head to one of the six competitors already announced for the Women's Pure Championship tournament.
