Impact Wrestling Knockouts Champion Tessa Blanchard and Mae Young Classic star Mercedes Martinez made history this Friday night for the RISE promotion in Chicago, IL.
Originally the two were scheduled to headline RISE 10 – INSANITY in a 60-Minute Ironwoman match for the Phoenix of RISE Championship. However, when world got out that the world record for the length of a women’s wrestling match came in around 73 minutes, the promotion upped the ante with a grueling 75-minute war of attrition.
We won’t give away the ending, but you can already watch the live cut of the match – which was said to be frontrunner for women’s match of the year – and the entire event on their streaming service at riseascent.com.
No fancy marketing packages, no big venues. Just two of the most amazing wrestlers on earth about to make history. #RISE10 #IRON75 pic.twitter.com/HQSFnuEiZj
