Jacy Jayne def. Jordynne Grace – NXT Women’s Championship

With Blake Monroe in her corner, Jordynne Grace entered as the crowd favorite. The tide shifted when Monroe “accidentally” struck Grace with the NXT Women’s Title, allowing Jacy Jayne to capitalize for the win.

Judgment Day def. Kabuki Warriors, Sol Ruca & Zaria, Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss

A chaotic eight-woman tag match saw faction alliances and interpersonal tension come to a head.

Despite a strong showing from Sol Ruca and Zaria, it was Raquel Rodriguez who sealed the victory for Judgment Day with a Tejana Bomb. Flair and Bliss’s growing alliance adds an intriguing wrinkle to the division.

Tiffany Stratton def. Trish Stratus – WWE Women’s Championship

In a clash between eras, Tiffany Stratton secured a career-defining win over legend Trish Stratus. The crowd was hot for both, with “Tiffy Time” chants clashing with nostalgic love for Trish.

The moment marks Stratton’s undeniable ascent to the top of WWE’s women's hierarchy.

Jade Cargill def. Naomi

Before Naomi made her history-making move, she battled Jade Cargill in a brutal encounter. Naomi brought everything—including chair shots and table dives—but Cargill refused to break. The final blow came with a top-rope Jaded through a table. After the match, Bianca Belair raised Jade’s hand, visibly torn between two friends now on divergent paths.

Stephanie Vaquer last eliminates Lash Legend to win

Representing Raw, SmackDown, and NXT, the 20-woman Battle Royal showcased raw potential and star power. Stephanie Vaquer shined brightest, eliminating Nia Jax and Lash Legend with a brutal Devil’s Kiss to secure the win. Kelani Jordan wowed fans with a Kofi-like handstand save, while Nikki Bella’s return ended with a shock elimination by Lash Legend. Vaquer’s post-match promo, delivered partially in Spanish, affirmed her arrival as a main-event player.

Naomi def. Iyo Sky (c) & Rhea Ripley – WWE Women’s World Championship

In a dream match scenario, Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky went to war in a back-and-forth masterpiece that had fans on their feet. They pulled out every trick, including a terrifying Spanish Fly and a Poison Rana. When Ripley looked to finally secure the title, chaos broke out—Sky knocked out the ref, Ripley retaliated with a vicious brawl into the crowd, and both laid it all out. Enter Naomi, with her Money in the Bank briefcase in hand. Turning the bout into a Triple Threat, Naomi stunned the crowd with a Split-Legged Moonsault on Sky for the victory. Naomi stood atop the division with gold in hand as fireworks exploded, cementing her as one of the most resilient and dynamic performers of this era.
