Collins regained her confidence and control while Cartier was left reeling. Although her knee injury was not bothering her, Daniella wondered whether she was suffering from ring rust or whether Colllins was much better than she had anticipated. Cassidy put an end to her guessing game as she grabbed the telephone off of the nearby nightstand and clubbed ont he back with it. When Daniella exclaimed in pain, Collins wrapped the phone cord around her neck and started choking her with it.

Breathless, Cartier broke free, knocking the phone from Collins' hand. As Daniella bent over to retrieve it, Collins calmly kicked her in the rear end, sending her sprawling onto the floor. Moving as if her life depended on it, Collins was on her opponent as quick as a cat, grabbing her by the hair and pulling her back onto the bed.
