By El Solitario

The LLF presented their weekly event in the heart of Monterrey city, and unveiled the historic 'Roulette of Death' 16 Woman Battle... 8 lady wrestlers fighting for a championship... and 8 others battling to save their mask or their hair! On the line is the LLF International Title, left vacant by the recent departure of Simply Luscious. Every woman wants it, but only one will claim it at night's end.

Reyna Vampira versus Lady Dinamita, with Dinamita claiming victory.

Mística faces Tsunami, and Tsunami is again defeated in an upset. But even more shocking to the fans was the unexpected run-in of a NEW Tsunami, who proceeded to attack the original and unmasked her.

And just who was this mysterious intruder? None other than Nikki Roxx!

Then, it is Mask vs Mask as Reyna Vampira battles Tsunami!

Furious at her previous loses and humiliated by having Nikki unmask her, an enraged Tsunami unleashes a wave of destruction against her opponent! Reyna battles valiantly, but to little avail, as her rival cannot be stopped. After only six minutes, Reyna is left helpless as Tsunami wins her mask!

Now, forced to go without a mask, Reyna revealed that she will wrestle under her real name...Rosa Pruneda Martinez. The 29 year old was given a rousing ovation by the fans, mitigating somewhat the shame she felt for having lost her honored mask.

Princesa Yara defeats La Bruja.

Diana la Cazadora, coming off of a title loss to Chacala some weeks previous, rebounds to best old foe Polly Star.

Tigresa del Norte aims to halt Nikki Roxx, but falls to the Bostonian instead.

Then comes the second title round...

Every woman in the LLF of late, it seems, wants to achieve only one thing: Beat La Chacala! Princesa Yara makes a tremendous effort, but in the end, she too falls before the vicious ruda!

And then, in a battle already being hailed as the Match of the Year, friends and tag team partners Diana la Cazadora and Nikki Roxx hold nothing back as they battle one another. After a titanic struggle that sees both wrestlers employ everything in their arsenal, Nikki puts Diana's shoulders to the mat!

(Many fans were worried that the intensity of this battle perhaps signaled the end of the friendship between these two women, but if anything, Diana and Nikki emerged from this match with even greater respect and affection for one another!)

And finally, in the main event of the evening, La Chacala faces Nikki Roxx for the International Title!

Both wrestlers are well-versed in what it takes to achieve a championship, as Nikki holds the Juvenil belt and Chacala recently beat la Cazadora for the Monterrey City crown. But they also both know that there is no more glittering jewel of a prize in Mexico than the International Title, and both are bound and determined to be the woman who walks out of the ring with the belt wrapped around her waist!

From the opening bell, Chacala is clearly on the offensive. She seeks to not only overwhelm her blond foe, but also to humiliate her before her adoring fans. The ruda punches, kicks and stomps "La Gringa," and even whips her with a belt! Things look grim for Roxx. But, proving she is made of sterner stuff, Nikki rallies back, and soon it is the blond who is punishing her opponent! And although she attempts to turn the tide yet again, Chacala is soon left withering by her opponent's blistering assault. Unless things change drastically soon, Chacala cannot help but realize that she is doomed to defeat.

Then, a miracle seems to arrive for Chacala...in the form of Tsunami, who angrily attacks Nikki. The two rudas unleash a torrent of blows upon the blond, and things look bleak for Roxx. And then, another miracle happens...and from a most unexpected source.

The referee Mulatto... long known to blatantly favor the rudas in matches, and certainly no partisan of Nikki Roxx... is nevertheless shocked by the savage disregard of the rules by Tsunami and Chacala. Perhaps he may personally favor the bad girls, but that doesn't mean he tolerates anyone ignoring his authority in the ring. And thus, Mulatto disqualifies Chacala and awards the LLF International Title to Nikki Roxx!

The crowd erupts with a dizzying burst of joy as the belt is fastened around Nikki's waist! From her very first appearance in Mexico, the fans had taken La Gringa to their hearts, and supported her in her long, brutal climb up the top. They shared her triumphs and felt the sting of her defeats. Every drop of her sweat and blood was, in a way, their as well. And now, their support has been rewarded... Nikki Roxx is the Queen of Lucha Libre!
