No one would have predicted the outcome to last nights three-way Knockouts Championship Match. Although, HAVOK did not need to be involved in the decision and she wasn’t, many believed HAVOK would handle both Gail Kim and Taryn Terrell well enough to escape with her title.
It is a bold statement to say that HAVOK would be able to defeat two such accomplished Knockouts, but the Knockouts Division has belonged to HAVOK for nearly half a year.

We have an amazing roster of Knockouts and I'm honored & humbled to be the Knockouts Champion!!!!”
