Android 18 vs. Nina Williams (C) with Jinx
(Super Nova Title Match)
3.75/5

 

Android 18 came out hot, hitting a nice Neck-Breaker early on in the match. Jinx jumps onto the side of the ring and distracts 18, which allows Nina Williams to preform a backstabber onto the challenger. Jinx again distracts 18. Nina takes advantage by tossing 18 and going for a pin. 18 kicks out at one. Jinx then threw a chair into the ring. Nina hits a hurricanranna from the top rope. 18 regains momentum when the fight goes outside the ring. Jinx distracts 18 for the third time. This time Nina is not able to capitalize on it. Nina regains some momentum, but quickly loses it. 18 goes for a pin after hitting a reverse DDT – the champion kicks out at two. 18 makes Nina Williams tap with a Texas Cloverleaf submission.

 

It was a classic Heel vs. Face bout and the Face came out on top. Even with interferences and smack talking, 18 persevered and reclaimed the Super Nova title.  Both wrestlers put on a good match and I think it told a pretty good story. I’m interested on how the Super Nova Division will change now.

Great match to end the feud between these two. Both wrestlers hit some devastating moves, but in the end, the Brooklyn Duelist could not and would not be stopped. Malak’s stable now seems to be the only way for him to regain a belt.

Saitama unleashes a barrage of moves onto Moon Knight. Planet tries to interfere, but the One Punch Man doesn’t have any of it. Saitama hits a Superman Punch and goes for the pin, but Planet is there to break it up at two. Moon Knight wins it with a leaping elbow to Saitama’s forehead.

 

Great match with a somewhat anti-climatic ending. After all the finishers and signatures these four hit, a jumping elbow wins it. The Solar Society regains the titles. Maybe it was just a freak loss that gave the Five Knuckle Shufflers the belt. Again, it was a great match. How was Skeeter to know that a random elbow would win it? I can’t blame him for not running interference, but it is better to be safe than sorry.

Zamasu takes Yusuke out with a swinging neckbreaker. He then pins Jesus after taking a second Superkick.

 

I feel like Rock Me Sexy Jesus would have put up a better fight than Stigmata Jesus. This was a solid match overall. Yusuke and Zamasu looked incredibly strong, while Jesus was just a shadow of his former self. Maybe Jesus will have a heel turn after taking out Raditz.

I was going to give this a 5-star rating, but that botched flying stunner really pushed me away from it. Overall, it was a phenomenal match. Both wrestlers gave it their all. I honestly couldn’t tell who would win. At least Green will have a fighting champion, now.
