ROH Women's World Title Proving Ground Match: Athena defeated Lady Frost
Frost used her acrobatic skills to get the upper hand on Athena, taking her up and over with a headscissors. Athena kicked her in the face on an up-and-over in the corner to take control. Frost laid in some shots after Athena paintbrushed her, but Athena dropped her with a backbreaker. Frost kicked Athena into the corner before cartwheeling into a cannonball.
Frost went to the top rope, but Athena got up and cut her off. Athena talked trash, which allowed Frost to hit a hurricane kick to take her down. Frost went to the top rope and hit a corkscrew moonsault, but Athena rolled to the ropes to avoid a cover. When Frost tried picking her up, Athena popped up into a big forearm for the win. After the match, Athena drove Frost into the title belt on the mat to get the final word in.
– The Kingdom talked about their frustrations in ROH lately in a lengthy video package. Instead of getting a rematch against the Briscoes at Final Battle, they lost to Top Flight. Instead of honoring Jay Briscoe by winning the tag team titles at Supercard of Honor, four other teams got in their way and took that from them. Now, they are not going to stop until they get back at all of the teams that were in that match.
