Emi Sakura made her second appearance on AEW Dark: Elevation and offered a handshake but it turned out to be a trap as Sakura floored Ashley with kicks and stomps.

Sakura chopped her opponent in the corner before tossing her to the other side of the ring. She locked Ashley in a surfboard and transitioned to a chinlock. The latter soon got some forearms in and hit a step-up enziguiri.

A suplex for Ashley led to a two-count. Sakura dropped her with a dropkick and followed it up with a splash in the corner. A chop-lariat combo weakened Ashley further as Sakura hit vicious kicks and then a double-underhook backbreaker for the win.

Result: Emi Sakura def. Ashley D'Amboise

Grade: C+
