The Women\u2019s division kicked things off this week as Mia Yim went one-on-one with Bianca BelAir.<\/p>\n

Both women canceling each other out early on leading to an almost-handshake before BelAir kicked Yim in the gut. The heelish BelAir took control with a number of power moves, taunting Mia Yim along the way. It became one taunt too many as Yim fought back.<\/p>\n

The two exchange submission attempts before momentum finally shifted firmly in Mia Yim\u2019s favor after she countered a splash by BelAir by getting her knees up. Yim locked in a tarantula submission move on the ropes which was countered into a pinning predicament by BelAir. To consummate the heel turn, BelAir wrapped her hair around the middle rope to gain leverage and pick up the pin.<\/p>\n

Yim was furious post-match with the manner of her defeat while BelAir reveled in victory on the entrance ramp.<\/p>\n
