While one of them donned the iconic red Santa suit, the other one sported a green Grinch suit with black wrestling gear. The setup of the video indicated that the match was being held at an indoor wrestling facility, further details of which were unavailable.
As the match started, both the wrestlers grabbed each other and grappled for a while. However, things took a surprising turn when the wrestler dressed as Santa, got hold of her opponent’s head and took him down with a vicious German suplex! This was enough for the judges to declare the winner as the Grinch was thrown out of the circle. However, Mrs. Santa Claus did not stop there. She went over and pinned her opponent with her arms firmly placed over the Grinch’s neck.
Finally, when the referee called for the winner, she got up on her feet and acknowledged the crowd as she walked out triumphantly.
