SHINE Champion Rain, try as she might, was forced to defend her title tonight for the very first time.
Jessicka Havok emerged from a #1 Contender’s Triple Threat match with a shot at Rain’s belt, defeating Mia Yim and Ivelisse to advance to the main event.
Havok couldn’t beat the numbers game, though, as April Hunter got involved late in the match, helping Rain secure an illegal pin to retain the SHINE Championship.
Post-match, Ivelisse joined her Valkyrie teammates to beat down Havok, but Angelina Love and Amazing Kong came to her aid, chasing them off.
Angelina closed the show by posing over Rain’s prone body, the SHINE Championship in her grasp.
