Love said she is. Rose said “I warned you” and then ordered Max to “get her!” Love left the ring but Max followed the seven-time former world champion and rammed her into the barricade. Love tried to crawl back into the ring, but Max grabbed her feet and pulled her off, sending her face-first to the floor. Love ducked a chop and Max connected with the ring post. Love shoved Max into the post. Back inside the ring, Love unleashed a series of blows to the chest to no effect. Max head-butted Love’s left shoulder and then put her in the torture rack. Max launched Love across the ring, and Love landed throat-first on the top rope. Love rolled to the floor. Max followed and rammed Love shoulder-first into the post. Max snatched Love by the head and pulled her up onto the apron. Max applied a sleeper hold while Love was still on the apron. Max ignored the referee’s order to release the hold, so he called for the bell and awarded the match to Love by disqualification in 5:53. Rose finally signaled for Max to release the hold. Max did so, and Love fell to the floor on her left shoulder. Love advances to the semifinals against Rok-C on next weekend’s episode.
