3. Tara vs Mickie James
Falls Count Anywhere Match
TNA Final Resolution 2010
Mickie James returned to TNA wrestling after she left WWE in 2010. She was thrown right into a rivalry that involved Madison Rayne and Tara. After a back and forth title switch between Rayne and Tara, James was determined to become the Knockouts Champion. This thirst for gold was put on the back burner as Rayne was the current champion. James had her eyes set on Tara first. The match started like all good Falls Count Anywhere matches start, and that is outside the ring.
Punches are thrown back and forth between the two as soon as the bell rings. James attempts to capitalize on her inital attack by attemping a couple near pin falls early on. After a game of hide and seek thanks to James hiding under the ring for a moment, the action spills over the barricade and into the crowd.
Tara uses an empty steel chair to her advantage as she plants James head first on it and gets a near fall. The match continues as the competitors fight their way out into the outside corrider of the arena. Once outside they us a concession stand, garbage cans, pole structures and cement walls to try and take each other out.
James was able to get a near fall on Tara after launching herself off a structure using the Thesz press. The fight culminates into the mens restroom. Several male fans scurry to get out of the way without washing their hands. As James gets Tara cornered in the restroom, Madison Rayne was hiding in a bathroom stall with a fire extingusher. After using the extinguisher on James, Rayne knocked her out with the title belt. Tara was able to capitalize and pick up the win with the assist from Rayne.
