Ruca vs Sinclair
Sol Ruca and Wren Sinclair started things off, with Sinclair kicking out of a quick cover. Sinclair and Ruca traded holds and reversals, and then Ruca went for a crossface but couldn’t lock it in.

Sinclair went for yet another submission right after, though Ruca was able to go for a cover attempt and break free. A collision between the two brought the next superstar out.
The next superstar in the math was Rizzo, who hit the ground running an knocked both Sinclair and Ruca to th eat with big suplexes.

Reece’s speed and energy was on display right away, as Ruca couldn’t quite slow her down before Reece went for a cover. Reece missed Ruca shortly after though and hit the ring post, though that didn’t slow her down much at all. Sinclair tried to pin Reece but she came back with a double clothesline and a slams for both Sinclair and Ruca.

Parker came in and threw Ruca and Sinclair into the barricades before rolling Grey into the ring. Parker lifted up Grey and slammed her back into the turnbuckle before the chop and slam combo. Parker slammed Grey down and went of the pin, eliminating Grey. Sinclair tried to pin Parker but Ruca hit a Soulsnatcher on Sinclair and got the elimination.
