Season’s Beatings Fallout — Every Championship Changes Hands

Posted on December 28, 2025 by Rumor Man Stan in Rumors

If you haven’t watched Season’s Beatings: 2025 yet and you want to go in blind, turn back now.


 


The final UTA event of 2025 didn’t just close the year — it flipped the entire landscape heading into 2026. And if early chatter backstage and online is to be believed, this wasn’t a “status quo” kind of night at all.


Every title on the card changed hands.


From the opening chaos to the final bell, Season’s Beatings delivered the kind of reset that makes January feel dangerous. Here’s the spoiler-heavy breakdown of who walked in with gold… and who walked out carrying it into the new year.




UTA Women’s United States Championship (Cluster Match)


Winner (NEW Champion): Valentina Blaze


Losers: Emily Hightower (c), Angela Hall, Athena Storm, Dahlia Cross, Juno Sage, Kaida Shizuka, Nancy Rhodes, Shannon Ray, Susanita Ybanez


The ten-woman one-fall Cluster Match was exactly what it sounded like — speed, collisions, bodies flying, and constant danger in every direction. Emily Hightower looked like she had weathered the storm more than once… until she didn’t.


Valentina Blaze stole the moment when it mattered most, capitalizing on the chaos and snatching the decisive fall to leave as the new UTA Women’s United States Champion. Rumor has it the locker room reaction was equal parts shock and respect — because you don’t “luck” your way through that kind of field.




WrestleZone Championship


Winner (NEW Champion): Gunnar Van Patton


Loser: Tyger II (c)


Tyger II’s reign ended the hard way. Gunnar Van Patton imposed his pace, made the fight ugly, and forced the champion into deep water where heart alone wasn’t enough.


By the end of it, the WrestleZone Championship had a new owner — and with Gunnar carrying gold into 2026, a lot of people are already whispering about what kind of year this could become if he keeps that momentum rolling.




UTA Tag Team Championship (Holiday Heist Ladder Match)


Winners (NEW Champions): Velocity Vanguard (Tyler Cruz & Jet Lawson)


Losers: El Fantasma (c), Iron Dominion, U.S.A, Next Level, Selena Vex & Rosa Delgado


The Holiday Heist stipulation delivered exactly what it promised: no rules, no order, and no safety net. With six teams and two belts hanging above the ring, the match never slowed down — it just got more desperate.


And in the end, it was Velocity Vanguard who climbed through the wreckage and pulled down both titles to become the new UTA Tag Team Champions. The biggest talking point coming out of the match?


El Fantasma did not need to be part of the finish to lose the championships.


That detail alone has fueled a ton of speculation about what’s next for the former champions — and what Madman Szalinski’s response might look like once the shock wears off.




UTA Women’s Championship


Winner (NEW Champion): Marie Van Claudio


Loser: Amy Harrison (c)


This one was personal, and everyone in the building felt it. Amy Harrison walked in as The Empress — convinced this was her coronation night, convinced Marie would break under the weight of everything The Empire put her through.


Instead, Marie Van Claudio dragged the fight into the kind of emotional trench war Amy couldn’t escape from forever. With The Empire removed from the equation and the pressure rising, Marie went to the mat and went hunting — tightening the trap until the champion had nowhere to run.


Amy Harrison tapped out.


And just like that, Marie Van Claudio ended 2025 as the new UTA Women’s Champion, delivering the kind of cathartic, career-defining win that turns a division upside down overnight.




UTA Championship (Main Event)


Winner (NEW Champion): Chris Ross


Loser: Jarvis Valentine (c)


#1 versus #2. No shortcuts. No cheap heat. Just two men who carried the year in different ways meeting at the finish line.


Jarvis Valentine’s reign defined 2025 — defending against legends, carrying the banner, proving he could lead the UTA through its return. Chris Ross spent the year doing the opposite: clawing upward, earning respect in the only place that would give him the chance, turning every match into proof that he belonged.


And in the end… Chris Ross got it done.


One. Two. Three.


When the dust settled, the UTA Championship was in different hands — and the year closed with Ross on top of the mountain, while Jarvis, battered and exhausted, gave him the ring and let him have the moment.




THE BIGGEST TAKEAWAY


Every title changed hands.


Women’s U.S. Title. WrestleZone Title. Tag Titles. Women’s Title. UTA Title. All new champions. All new problems.


And with Brand New Day: 2026 set to kick off January as a two-day event with every championship on the line (and a new one entering the picture), the timing feels intentional.


Season’s Beatings didn’t just end the year — it set the table for 2026 to be chaos.
