Similarly, Kamille could retain her NWA World Women’s Title over Leyla Hirsch, and put herself in line for another defence Sunday night on NWA 73.

There, the winner of Kamille/Hirsch will take on the winner of the Invitational Cup Gauntlet, with the company able to go one of two ways, with Chelsea Green being an obvious winner due to her name value, but Bianca Carelli and several others being in a position to break out.

There’s genuine intrigue there, and it’s making for a fascinating pay-per-view.
