The following is footage from this past Saturday's Vertigo taping:
Izzy crawls towards her opponent, and slowly rolls Noelle over onto her back. She collapses down on top of Noelle, not even hooking the leg as the referee counts.
ONE!
.
.
TWO!
.
.
THRE-NOOO!
Stephy Auger: No!
Kris Cruise: She kicked out! Noelle kicked out!
Izzy can’t believe it, the fans can’t believe it. The Legacy champion runs both hands through her hair; the disbelief settling in as the referee is adamant is was only a two count. Izzy pushes herself up to all fours, then to a standing position as she drags Noelle up to her feet and sends her hurtling towards the corner. Some vicious chops find their mark before Izzy uses all of her strength to lift Noelle to a seated position on the top rope. She climbs up to the middle rope and hooks Noelle in position for the superplex – NO! Noelle is fighting. She fires off some shots to the gut before headbutting Izzy right across the bridge of the nose! The Legacy champion loses her footing, slipping off the ropes and down to the mat. But Noelle has a handful of hair as she spins Izzy around before leaping off the ropes, flipping through the air – Beauty Mark! And Noelle collapses across Izzy as the referee drops to make the count!
ONE!
.
.
TWO!
.
.
THREE!!!
J.A. Aldridge: Here is your winner… NOELLE SMITH!
Kris Cruise: She did it, Noelle Smith has qualified for the Round Robin tournament on the Anniversary Show.
Stephy Auger: And what a hard fought contest that was, Kris. Now she’ll have to do the same, if not more, if she wants to beat Jimmy Page and Zero McHannon.
Kris Cruise: You’re absolutely right. All three of them will be chomping at the bit for that prize at stake.
Noelle's eyes turn to Izzy after she checks her shoulder, a wince on her face as she gingerly rotates it and flexes her fingers. Izzy smirks at her and turns to leave the ring - and Noelle rushes her from behind and hits a picture perfect double knee backbreaker! The fans seem to gasp at this display of unsportsmanlike behavior from the usually sweet and perky Noelle. She rolls free of the collapsed Izzy Anders and rolls to her feet, still favoring the shoulder.
Kris Cruise: What just happened??
Stephy Auger: I think Noelle Smith has had enough of Izzy! Everyone has a point they can't be pushed past without consequences Kris!
Noelle slides out of the ring and goes to the timekeeper's area, yanks the folding chair up in both hands and closes it before she stalks back to the ring and tosses the chair in before she slides in after it. Izzy starts to stir, shakily gets to her hands and knees as Noelle pops up and grabs the chair again, looks between it and Izzy before she winds up and cracks her across the back with it!
Kris Cruise: NO! Noelle, don't do this!
Stephy Auger: Too late... but certainly not again! Noelle has lost her mind!
Noelle cracks Izzy across the back of her head and shoulders this time as Izzy collapses back to the mat! A wicked smirk rides her full lips as she circles the downed Mid Atlantic Legacy Champion, and she goes to hit her again as the fans boo heavily, the chair held high overhead when suddenly the crowd erupts as someone comes sprinting down the ramp wearing a hoody and jeans, and she slides into the ring to jump and hit Noelle with a Lou Thesz press! Noelle topples with the woman on top of her, tries her best to cover up from the rain of punches until she finally gets a lucky shot in - the hood falls back to reveal that Noelle's attacker is none other than... Noelle??
Kris Cruise: Okay seriously what the f***
Stephy Auger: Language! But I have to agree! How is Noelle...attacking Noelle...to save Izzy, someone that hates her... God my head hurts.
The 'Second Noelle' is shoved to the side as the 'First Noelle' rises up and finds the chair as the referee pulls Izzy from the ring. She winds up and hits the 'Second Noelle' with the chair as hard as she can before she gestures out towards the crowd...and another Noelle comes climbing over the guardrail and moves to join the other two in the ring!
Kris Cruise: There's three of... OH. Oh that's right, Noelle IS a triplet... these must be her two identical sisters...but why would one of them attack her?
Stephy Auger: Oh no, they can't do this! That's your sister!
Noelle hits her sister with the chair then casts it aside, gesturing the other sister to pull the prone one off the mat. She winds up and punches her in the gut, and yells at her sister to "Hold her up better, stupid!" As she says this she slaps the third sister who cringes and obeys, before she kicks the held sister hard in the ribs. Just then, "Pool of Booze, Booze, Booza” by Volbeat blazes over the sound system and the fans erupt as the FGA Tag Team Champions Whiskey Dex come running from the back, Dexter ahead of Whiskey with a purely murderous look on his face. He slides into the ring and the third sister drops the second and flees even as Dexter squares up with Noelle. She threatens him with the chair but sees Whiskey circling around to the other side of the ring and she starts to back up - then swings it at him! The fans start to boo but then scream in excitement as Dexter punches the chair and it recoils back into Noelle's face! She drops, and he kicks the chair out of the ring before she scoots back as fast as she can and rolls out of the ring. She gets shoved into the barricade by an irate Whiskey Ayano even as in the ring Dexter kneels to scoop up the fallen Smith Sister. Whiskey gets a microphone and slides into the ring; she watches sternly as the other two Smith Sisters make their escape.
Whiskey Ayano: The jig-u is up! You have all been taken-u for a ride by that fake Noelle... THIS is the real Noelle Smith... that is Ruby, and we aren't-u letting her get away with this-u anymore!
The real Noelle stirs and Dexter helps her stand up as she takes the microphone from Whiskey.
Noelle Smith: She's telling the truth. That's my sister Ruby running away from her actions along with my sister Summerlyn... but I promise you all, she's only begun to pay.
Noelle drops the microphone as Whiskey and Dexter help her out of the ring and to the back, leaving the announcers and fans stunned.
ONE!
