Knockouts Title: Miss Tessmacher vs. Mickie James
Tessmacher takes the glasses off and bends over to pick them up. Well it’s not like she’s here for her in ring abilities. Basic stuff here as Tessmacher does gymnast stuff while Mickie walks her through the match. Victory Roll gets two for Tessmacher and she fires the worst enziguri I’ve ever seen for two. Off to the arm by Tessmacher for a bit before Mickie makes her comeback with a bunch of clotheslines. Neckbreaker sets up a terrible looking jumping DDT to end it at 3:52.
Rating: D. Match sucked, girls were hot. That sums up the entire match as that’s the entire reason Tessmacher was out there. Mickie can’t really do much with this kind of opponent, especially with her shoulder not being 100% still. I can’t imagine what Tessmacher is going to do but she looks good so I can’t complain that much.
Another match on Impact, July 21, 2011 but this time for the Knockouts Tag Team Titles.
Knockouts Tag Titles: Sarita/Rosita vs. Miss Tessmacher/Tara
s the required USA chant as Tessmacher takes Rosita down. Just not down enough for a tag.
t hit Sarita because Madison runs in to break it up. Sarita rolls Tara up but only gets two. Tessmacher is thrown into Sarita and actually manages a Stratusfaction bulldog. Tara hits a chokebomb and Tessmacher gets a small package for stereo pins at 4:43 to give us new champs.
Rating: C-. Not like the title mean anything but having Tessmacher and Tara hug each other a lot is never a bad thing. Does anyone ever successfully defend the tag titles anymore? Either way, this was a bit better than most of their matches and it helps that Tessmacher has an actual finishing move now rather than the amplified Stinkface.
Time for a PPV title defense at Hardcore Justice 2011.
Knockout Tag Titles: Sarita/Rosita vs. Tara/Miss Tessmacher
And now a defense on Impact, October 20, 2011.
Knockout Tag Titles: Winter/Angelina Love vs. Tara/Brooke Tessmacher
Back to singles action at Sacrifice 2012.
Knockouts Title: Brooke Tessmacher vs. Gail Kim
Gail jumps Brooke to start but Tessmacher tries Eat Defeat twice to send Gail running to the floor. Gail gets in a kick to the ribs to take over and follows with a shoulder block to the ribs. The champion hits a backbreaker and bends Brooke over the knee in a submission hold out of the same position.
s about 99% Kim until Brooke gets a flying forearm to get herself a breather. A facejam out of the corner puts Gail down and a top rope elbow gets two. The champion tries a quick Eat Defeat but Brooke hits one of her own which knocks Gail to the floor. Back inside that gets two. And then Gail rolls her up with feet on the ropes to retain at 6:50.
Knockouts Title: Gail Kim vs. Miss Tessmacher
More Gail on Impact, July 12, 2012.
Knockout Title: Gail Kim vs. Miss Tessmacher
Knockouts Title: Madison Rayne vs. Miss Tessmacher
Time for a mentor vs. mentee match at No Surrender 2012.
Knockouts Title: Tara vs. Miss Tessmacher
Knockouts Title: Miss Tessmacher vs. Tara
Tara/Jesse Godderz vs. Robbie T/Miss Tessmacher
Time for a good old four way on Impact, February 21, 2013.
Knockouts Title: Velvet Sky vs. Gail Kim vs. Miss Tessmacher vs. Tara
Now Tara and Gail go at it but Gail is sent to the floor for a bulldog from Tessmacher. Velvet and Tessmacher ping pong the champion back and forth with punches but Tara fights back. A moonsault hits Tessmacher but Velvet grabs Tara and hits In Yo Face, only to be broken up by Gail. Kim steals the pin on Tara to eliminate her, guaranteeing us a new champion.
Sky pounds away to start but misses a dropkick to stop her momentum cold. Kim tries a cover but gets caught grabbing the ropes like a good villain should. Some shoulders in the corner miss and Velvet grabs a pretty sloppy sunset flip for two. In Yo Face hits this time and Velvet wins the title at 8:35.
Tessmacher would be in action at Knockout Knockdown.
Miss Tessmacher vs. Santana
Tess fires off a headbutt and avoids a middle rope cross body before a forearm puts Santana down. A Stinkface annoys Santana so she slams Tess down but a Tajiri handspring into a moonsault hits knees. The Tess Shocker (the belly to back suplex into a face plant) gets the pin on Santana in a quick match.
Knockouts Title: Gail Kim vs. Brooke vs. ODB
ODB powers up to break a reverse chinlock but gets dropped by a running forearm. A spinning neckbreaker puts the champion down for two but Gail pulls Brooke down for a Figure Four around the post. ODB takes Gail down but Brooke gets two off a rollup. Off to a half crab on Brooke and Gail has to run in to break up a tap out. Both challengers go to the top so ODB tries to superplex them both, only to be shoved down. Gail missile dropkicks ODB and Brooke drops a top rope elbow on Kim to put all three on the mat.
A final Knockouts tag on Impact, October 24, 2013.
Brooke/Gail Kim vs. Velvet Sky/ODB
Brooke is a stunningly gorgeous woman with a body to die for and she actually has some decent wrestling abilities. She went from a horrible worker to someone who can have a passable match, which is more than so many girls can do. TNA treats its girls WAY more serious than WWE does and Tessmacher has gotten far better than she ever would have in WWE.
