Quinn McKay has been suffering at the mercy of The Allure (Angelina Love and Mandy Leon) for months now. As a Ring of Honor backstage interviewer and host, McKay has been mocked and told that she isn’t a wrestler.
McKay tried to become an early entry into the upcoming ROH Women’s Title Tournament as she faced Love in her ROH debut match. She suffered a defeat which gave Love a Bye in round one of the tournament. On the most recent ROH TV episode, McKay got one more shot as she faced Leon to try and get the last spot in the tournament brackets.
Leon came out with the win, but it was far from clean as her Allure teammate was the deciding factor. McKay had the Tangerine Dream submission locked in, which was causing Leon to tap. Love, however, had the referee distracted so he didn’t see it. As the ref was arguing with McKay who knew she had won, Love slipped the brass knuckles to Leon.
Leon then used the brass knuckles to the head of McKay as the ref was still arguing with Love. Leon then got the three count.
The Board of Directors and facilitator of the ROH Women’s Title Tournament, Maria Kanellis Bennett was on commentary.
