Furious, and still smarting from the stinging slap across her face, Malaysia determined to teach the southerner a lesson and set out to brutalize the helpless girl. First she turned Monroe around and applied a Cantonese inverted headlock. Applying the hold sapped Monroe of her strength and she seemed likely to fall into unconsciousness soon thereafter. Surprisingly, however, a still enraged Malaysia released Monroe from the hold, slapping her across the face to rouse her opponent. When Monroe's senses seemed to have returned, Malaysia maneuvered around and above her and placed her in a modified Camel Clutch.

As Malaysia leaned in to gain further leverage, a panic stricken Dixie saw her only opportunity. Noticing Malaysia's hair dangling next to her, Monroe grabbed it in her mouth and turned her head abruptly, yanking the long brown follicles and surprising the bigger woman, momentarily loosening her hold.
