#3 Fire 'N Flava vs Havok & Nevaeh - IMPACT Wrestling March 30th, 2021
The two-time IMPACT Wrestling Knockouts Tag Team Champions are phenomenal together. I can't fully describe just how great Kiera Hogan and Tasha Steelz work together as a tag team.
The Knockouts are, far and away, the best women's division in professional wrestling, and part of that has to do with the way they handle their tag division.
Looking at, say, WWE's women's tag team division, those titles just seem like an after thought. Aside from last year when Sasha Banks and Bayley were holding them, they've never been a major part of that company's plans. IMPACT Wrestling, on the other hand, has made the Knockouts Tag Team Titles a truly prized possession. That has a lot to do with Fire 'N Flava refusing to let themselves be seen as anything but major players.
When IMPACT Wrestling announced they would be bringing these titles back, Fire 'N Flava, and Havok and Nevaeh were the odds-on favorites. Of course, they ended up in the finals of the tournament, and Kiera Hogan and Tasha Steelz won in the end. They'd go onto have a feud that went from January to March of this year.
In every match, Fire 'N Flava seem to be a better team than anyone they've faced. They're on the same page 24/7. They may be the best tag team in IMPACT Wrestling at the moment. A team has to be on their A game from start to finish or catch them off guard in order to beat them. When Havok and Nevaeh came into this one struggling as a unit, fans knew what would happen next.
Still, it was a great match. Havok and Nevaeh were among the more dominant forces in IMPACT Wrestling but it never seemed like they were fully in control, if that makes any sense.
Hogan and Steelz were always just waiting on one mistake to capitalize on, and once they had control, they implemented a stick-and-move offense. While keeping out of the arm's reach of the challengers, they kept one another fresh, tagging in and out.
Havok and Nevaeh kept their heads on a swivel as best they could, but the teamwork of Fire 'N Flava was too much to handle. Though Havok and Nevaeh had both champions nearly pinned several times over, it wasn't enough.
Havok dropped Steelz with an earth-shattering powerbomb near the end of the match, only for Hogan to break it up.
After disposing of Nevaeh, Fire 'N Flava hit a fisherman's neckbreaker/frog splash combination for the win. They were at a disadvantage power-wise, but there was a major gap between the IMPACT Wrestling Tag Champions and their opponents when it came to teamwork. That's, honestly, something that defines their run at the top perfectly.
This bout also saw the ending of Havok and Nevaeh as a pair. Nevaeh turned on her partner, and after losing to Havok two weeks later was gone from IMPACT Wrestling altogether.
