SLAMpeg 505: Brooke Carter vs Malia Hosaka

A championship match is in store as Brooke challenges for Malia's belt-not just 'a' champion, but 'the' champion, if Malia is to be believed. The referee starts with the introduction, although the referee is more receiving them from Malia than giving them.

Malia starts with some good arm work, although she resorts on a couple of occasions to using Brooke's hair as a shortcut to give her offense a little extra punch. It seems the shortcuts were needed as once Malia is forced back onto the straight and narrow, Brooke nicely reverses a Surfboard attempt and starts going to work on Malia with some shortcuts of her own, standing on Malia's hair and sneaking in some devastating rope chokes that leave Malia struggling to get her bearings. Malia regains the initiative and goes right back to testing the referee's patience, sneakily turning a Dragon Sleeper into a flagrant choke hold, and Brooke responds by sneakily using a rope for added leverage on some devastating Waistscissors.

It isn't long before it becomes clear that the poor referee has lost control as this one turns even nastier in a really big hurry.

Will Malia survive the onslaught and retain her belt or will Brooke's relentless attack yield her championship gold?
