Another day, another terrific win for Maharashtra Kesari. On Day 7, Harshita Mor made a brilliant run in Match 9 of the ongoing Pro Wrestling League 2026.
The Maharashtrian defeated UP Dominators Ojo Damola Hannah in the women’s 76kg category held at the Noida Indoor Stadium, taking Kesari’s lead to 5-4. Harshita was named Player of the Match, while Tapsya Gahlawat won the Fighter of the Match award.
With the win, Maharashtra Kesari have moved to second place in the points table with four points and 14 bout wins. Despite the defeat, UP Dominators stay on top of the standings with four points and 20 wins.
After a late opening from Hannah, Mor was composed and aware at the start, finding ways to bring in the lead. The match went neck-to-neck, with Hannah adding scores and exposing herself out in the open, while it took time for Mor to find a way out. She did so at the end after performing a stunning fall to seal the win over Hannah.
Maharashtra Kesari continued their dominant run in other men’s events. In the heavyweight category, Robert Baran gave an explosive performance through timely takedowns in the final minutes of the game to defeat Jaspooran Singh by 10-2. The momentum followed by Yash produces a strong win of 5-2 in the 74kg men’s match.
Meanwhile, in the 65kg men’s contest, Tevanyan Vazgen edged a closely contested battle against Vishal Kali Raman, striking first with a clean takedown, responding to Raman’s second-period surge, and sealing the tie with a decisive late takedown to register a narrow 4-3 victory.
