Paige VanZant made her successful Power Slap debut on Friday night, securing a win over Christine Wolmarans inside Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
Winning the coin toss, VanZant was allowed to slap first. Winding up three times, ’12 Gauge’ showed off her power and delivered an excellent first slap, though Wolmarans ate it well. Coming back, the South African delivered a return blow that VanZant took with relative ease.
In the second round, VanZant delivered a booming shot that wobbled Wolmarans, forcing her to use the podium to stay upright before taking a knee and prompting a 10-count from referee Mark Smith.
