Now in control, Cartier grabbed her opponent, and pulled her onto the couch. Applying a modified ankle-lock with one hand she grabbed Miranda by the hair with the other. Yelling at Alexander to submit, Cartier became frustrated. She began alternately choking Alexander and then delivering strikes across her back and rear end.

Alexander, unable to get her feet free, howled in pain. In desperation, when Cartier once again laid a strike again her rear end, Miranda flung herself to the ground, headfirst. Cartier tried to get to her feet but Miranda began throwing bicycle kicks at her. Half-defending herself and half-trying to control the challenger, Daniella attempted to grab Alexander's feet.
