Rhea Ripley came out. She got “You deserve it chants.” Rhea started talking about memories like becoming the NXT Women’s Champion. Then Toni Storm came out. That’s a nice surprise.
Toni congratulated her Rhea, but she reminded her of how she beat her twice. Storm said that she’s going to become NXT UK Women’s Champion at NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool II. Then at Worlds Collide she’ll become double champion. Then Rhea Ripley accepted before Kay Lee Ray came out.
Ray said there’s no way Toni is taking the title at TakeOver Blackpool. Then Io Shirai came out. Io spoke in Japanese, pointed at the title and said: “Mine.”
Bianca Belair came out next. She got some “EST”chants. She said that she’s better than you, you, and then pointed to Toni and said, “you don’t even go here.” Nice Mean Girls reference. Out next was Candice LeRae.
Then Rhea Ripley started punching people. Everyone scattered with Toni, Candice, and Rhea left in the ring. Then they started a six woman tag match.
Rhea Ripley, Candice LeRae, & Rhea Ripley vs Kay Lee Ray, Bianca Belair, & Io Shirai
Candice started out with a dive to take out the heels. Then they went to commercial.
When we came back, Candice and Kay Lee Ray were in the ring. LeRae went for a dive, but Ray kicked her on the way down. After that, Candice started taking abuse and selling. Io tagged in next to apply more pressure on her.
Candice tried to fight back, but the heels kept avoiding her attempts at offense as they tagged in and out. LeRae got close, but they kept stopping her. She took a nice swanton bomb from Ray. Rhea came in and hit a couple dropkicks. LeRae kicked Io and then everyone was down.
Commercial break.
Candice hit a Poisonrana and created some separation before finally tagging Toni Storm who started to rally on Ray with a suplex and a sliding forearm for a two count.
Io tagged in and hit running double knees in the corner and a butterfly backbreaker. Then Belair tagged herself in and Io hit her with a missile dropkick to screw over her own team.
Ripley nailed Belair with a running big boot, some knee strikes, a dropkick, and a Riptide for the win.
Winners: Rhea Ripley, Toni Storm, & Candice LeRae
