Dixie Monroe found her apartment wrestling career on the line. As more and more ACW performers use the promotion as a springboard to other areas in the entertainment business, Monroe was one of the first and had put her apartment wrestling career on hold pursuing acting opportunities on film and on stage. As she faced frustrations and struggles on her pursuit, she decided to return to her roots and step back into competition.
ACW officials were not so quick to take Monroe back. There was lingering resentment in some quarters over her abrupt departure from the promotion. She would therefore have to prove her self and earn a spot by participating in a qualifying match. Her opponent would be Tasha Moreno, a rookie also trying to qualify. Moreno was not highly regarded by ACW officials but was also being given an opportunity to retain a position with the promotion, but would have to defeat her friend to do so.
The two tied up to begin the match and Moreno took the initiative against the rusty Monroe. After a brief test of strength, Moreno took control.
Moreno wrestled Monroe onto a couch, putting her in a headlock and trying to keep her from regaining her balance or any leverage. Initially, it appeared that she would be in control throughout the match as the hapless Monroe was unprepared for her attack. Moreno, however, grew overconfident and began giggling a she tried to hold her opponent down. In doing so, she allowed Monroe to slip out of her hold.
Monroe used her weight advantage over the ultra-slim Moreno, and pushed the girl loose. At this point, Moreno, who was still sitting atop Monroe, was completely out of control of her opponent. Dixie waited patiently, maneuvering Tasha until she was ready for the right moment.
As Moreno struggled to regain her footing, Monroe allowed her just enough slack to gain enough momentum to fall back and throw Tasha head over heels backwards. Tasha tumbled over the back of the couch, landing on her feet but staggering back again the window.
Still off-balance, she staggered back towards the couch where she found Monroe waiting, licking her chops.
