EC3 recap and #1 contenders match. (2:25)
Next: Trish Stratus vs Molly Holly

Subway present the WWE Rewind: the Woman's Division shrinks by 25%. I think we all wanted the Kane/Lita stuff be over, but what a horrible way to end it.

WWE Woman's Champion Trish Stratus (Toronto, Canada) vs Molly Holly (Forest Lake, MN) in a non-title match - the crowd is especially and loudly anti-Trish. Why is Lillian Garcia doing the announcing? Coach remembers back to the day where Lita was Coach's Heat Pal, and threatens Todd about it happening again. Coach goes onto threaten it taking only one phone call from him to end Todd's stay on Heat. Todd: "How about when you're throwing back rum, after rum, after rum, drinking, you're like [drunk voice] 'Todd, we're best buddies, we're going to be a great team!'" Coach says Coach does not drink, party, or go out at all. Circle. Lockup, nothing, break. Circle. Lockup - no, Trish gets in a kick. Armbar, twist. Molly yanks Trish by the hair to escape. Standing wristlock as Trish is on the mat. Trish tries to find a way out, and a nice kip up sure works. Right hand nocks down Molly. Armbar, twist. Molly tying to get to the ropes and not getting there. Handstand reversal into a fireman's carry takeover. Trash talking between the two - being the last three survivors means they don't get along any more, I guess. Fans have no idea who to root for here, or just didn't care. Trish charges at Molly, and Molly trips her up with a drop toe hold. Armdrag, armdrag, axhandle to the face! That was fun. Trish tries to get up and gets stomped down. Corner whip, Trish with the corner kip up and headscissors. Trish clotheslines Molly down just as she gets up, and covers for one tow NO. Hammerlock, with the ropes just outside of Molly's reach - and Trish pulls the reaching arm into an armbar, smart. Trish puts her knee on the hammerlock to keep in place (or let's it go entirely - can't tell, being generous), and hooks one of Molly's leg for a modified half crab as well. It's all quite strechy. Trish lets go to cover, one twp no. Turnbuckle smash. Molly stomps her down. Choke. Word for the ref. Trish to the middle rope for a choke that pulls Molly off the mat. Trish lets go at four, but pauses to bow for the crowd. Great. Back to the choke. Trish lets go at four, waits till Molly turns around, and takes her out with a diving clothesline, one two no. Trish is very angry with that count, and lets the referee know - Molly inside cradle one two NO. Molly's clothesline is Matrixed - so Molly just axhandles Trish's midsection instead! That looked painful. One two NO. Chinlock/face yank. Letting go at four, starting for another four. Knee choke on the middle rope. Corner whip, reversed, Molly quickly leaps to the middle rope, jumps out over Trish and pulls Trish into a handstand headscissors. That entire sequence looked great. One two NO. Crowd not really into this match. Trish battling back with right hands and forearm. Whip, reversed, Trish back with a clothesline. One two NO. Molly needs a time out, Trish isn't giving one, and Molly lures her into a trip onto the bottom rope. Trish hit the bottom rope with her throat and bounced back. Coach is relating his Trish Stratus related fantasies for those who really want to know. Turnbuckle smash. Molly kicks Trish down. Snap mare, running neck snap, nicely done. Molly yells at the crowd. Corner whip, Molly Pop reversed into a headscissors cradle, one two three. (4:49) Trish sneaks out with a win, and gets her belt back.
