On the March 14 episode, Valkyrie, John Hennigan, and Sam Adonis mocked Starkz while she was at a photo shoot. Starkz stepped up to the champion and make it clear that she wanted to challenge for the gold. Valkyrie initially turned her down and stated that gold didn’t look good on her. Starkz continued to force the issue, and she didn’t back down when Hennigan got in her face. Vakyrie then agreed to put her title on the line against Starkz, and the match was announced for the March 21 episode of MLW Underground.
