00:00It had Billy Starks World Television title.
00:06Athena caught her shot for the pure title.
00:08This match is set for one fall with a 15 minute time limit and
00:12it will be contested under pure wrestling rules.
00:16Approaching the ring wrestling on the beginning,
00:18West Africa Queen Aminata.
00:26She's your queen to me.
00:34Her opponent, Ellison Caine.
00:39And what an opponent Queen Aminata has drawn for this women's pure match.
00:48And if Billy Starks wants to become the first pure champion to add to her,
00:52this is the first.
00:53She may have a rematch maybe in the finals with Queen Aminata.
00:59Absolutely, man.
01:00I'm thinking of Queen Aminata.
01:02If you think about people that are made for the pure title,
01:05there's some wrestlers that you could name off there.
01:07And I would definitely say that Queen Aminata is someone made for the pure title.
01:11And Alison Caine here is probably one of the strongest women in the division.
01:17It's going to be a great matchup for Queen Aminata.
01:19And I kind of want to see how Alison Caine plays along with the rules of pure wrestling division.
01:25Well, I know we have a lot of first time ring of honor viewers who may be joining us.
01:29This may be their first pure match.
01:30This is the second ever women's pure match.
01:34And the rules are simple.
01:35You see the three red dashes underneath each competitor's name.
01:39They're taking up rope breaks.
01:44I think Alison is still getting used to the rules there.
01:47Rope break number one for Alison Caine.
01:49Yep.
01:50And if those are exhausted, you can pin your opponent underneath, between, on, in the ropes.
01:56Pin or submit.
01:57Now, you see the countdown clock.
01:59It is a 10-minute time limit.
02:00Should it go the full-time limit?
02:03It goes to the judges.
02:04Our panel includes Dean Malenko, Jerry Lynn, and Pat Buck this week.
02:11No close fists.
02:13You get one as a warning.
02:15A second results in a disqualification.
02:16A 20 count on the outside.
02:18There's always like here between Aminata.
02:20And these matches are a little bit more technical-based,
02:22a more scientific-based, Caprice.
02:24The more scientific-based, you can only strike one time.
02:27No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
02:27And I believe Alison Caine was getting used to the rules there.
02:30Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
02:32Trying to get a straight arm here.
02:33Trying to push that long through to break it loose.
02:36That is a strong grip from Aminata.
02:40And the stack.
02:43I think you're right.
02:43I think Alison Caine was getting used to the rules, but it's Aminata now with the face lock.
02:49Almost into a cross face.
02:50And you see how Aminata is allowing Alison to ride through.
02:54She's not keeping Alison from going to the ropes.
02:57She's almost helping Alison get to the ropes.
03:00Yep.
03:01Or to force into this ring-style move.
03:03Look at that, Aminata.
03:05This might be a tap right here.
03:07But Alison Caine, that's the second rope break.
03:11There are going to be women in this division recombine.
03:13They're just not going to be able to catch on to the peer division rules, just like some men can't.
03:19Oh, that's a close fist!
03:21Yep.
03:22Alison Caine has been issued a warning for the use of a close fist strike to the face.
03:26Wow.
03:27She is so frustrated.
03:28Well, absolutely.
03:29And some people with the peer title rules will frustrate you.
03:34Certainly hasn't frustrated the men's champion Lee Moriarty, who last year won the title in Texas
03:39this year.

04:09And some fine detail work there from Allison Kaye, who delivers a fallaway slam.
04:15There's some things that Allison Kaye does well, and that is the displays of strength
04:19that she's able to pull out of nowhere.
04:23But this fighting style is what Allison Kaye is used to.
04:27And I think she's showing that her style may not work in the period of vision.
04:32Everything she does seems to work against her one way or another.
04:35Well, it looks like she's catching on now.
04:39And look at that, biting the finger!
04:42That was so, so violent.
04:47That's an open hand. Open hands are legal.
04:50Oh, double open hand!
04:53That was double legal then, Rick.
04:54Byron.
04:54Double legal.
04:55Yes. Extremely legal.
05:00Extremely legal.
05:02Still the same 20 count.
05:03And it is Aminata who gets caught coming in through the ropes.
05:08Allison Kaye, wait a minute.
05:10She's looking for a submission inside the ropes.
05:12Thought maybe looking to force a rope break there.
05:13See, that's...
05:15See, even Allison Kaye there.
05:16Wow!
05:17And that butterfly.
05:18I look like I'm gonna lay it on her head.
05:19Two?
05:22But even Allison Kaye instinctively bringing Aminata into the middle of the ring before she does a move.
05:27And Aminata's doing stuff on the side of the ring, close to the ropes.
05:31There's little things like that that shows the strategy that the wrestlers are thinking.
05:37And this is a great match.
05:39Where Aminata already announced for the tournament along with Serena Deeb, Layla Gray,
05:43Taya Valkyrie, Deanna Purrazzo, and now Billy Starks.
05:49Aminata's showing a lot of guts to go back and forth with AK.
05:52AK brings it hard.
05:54One of the heaviest hitters.
05:57Wow, is Allison Kaye?
05:59But you could say that about Aminata, who delivers that big forearm now off the ropes.
06:03Big boot blocks the lariat off the ladder with a kick.
06:06Oh, she may have knocked Aminata out.
06:08Cover here.
06:10Just a one count.
06:12Oh, that's...
06:13See, Aminata realized she almost lost it just that fast.
06:17Now Allison with a road through.
06:19Submission attempt from Allison.
06:21My goodness, locked through.
06:22Yeah, these hammer elbows.
06:24Aminata trying to bridge out of it.
06:26Locked in the head scissors.
06:27That's Aminata.
06:28Now roll through the bridge.
06:30Two.
06:31Two count only.
06:33Oh my goodness.
06:36The crack of the skull.
06:39And it is Aminata.
06:43Wow, the largest muscle in the human body being driven into the skull of Allison Kaye.
06:49Yep.
06:52You don't have anything to add to that, Caprice?
06:53Nope.
06:54Oh, Allison Kaye is down.
06:58Look at that.
06:59The legs.
07:00Figure forward.
07:01Inside figure four.
07:04That's a new lace with the body.
07:06Great snap here.
07:09And that's it.
07:14The winner of this match by submission, Queen Aminata.
07:20And it has been Aminata who has been steadfast in her belief that should there be a Women's
07:30Pure Championship, she could and would become the first ever Ring of Honor Women's Pure Champion.
07:37But Caprice, I understand.
07:41We're going to hear from Queen Aminata's first round opponent.
07:47The professor of professional wrestling, Caprice.
07:52That's right.
07:53Who's the best?
07:55Who's doing it better than me?
07:56That's right.
07:57We're going to go to Serena Deeb right now.
