The second match of the night saw the two women kicking off in an intense fight. Although no titles were involved, the bout certainly had personal stakes for both Becky and Trish, as a part of their kayfabe storyline. Trish looked to be in control for a majority of the match, brutalizing her opponent every chance she got.
Near the end, Becky was able to turn the tables and execute an improvised submission move. The move closely resembled the iconic Walls of Jericho submission used by Chris Jericho. Immediately after the move was applied, fans in Jeddah broke out into chants of "Y2J," recognizing the staple maneuver of the former AEW World Champion.

Despite her best efforts, an interruption by Zoey Stark put a halt to Becky's momentum. The referee did not notice the attack, leading to Trish Stratus coming out on top.
The feud seems to be far from over at the moment. It remains to be seen what the future holds for the two stars in WWE.

A fan of pro wrestling since childhood, Shubhajit decided to start creating content on the sport out of passion. Before covering a piece of news or rumor, he conducts thorough research, ensuring information in his work is reliable and completely accurate.
Although Shubhajit admires numerous pro wrestlers, his current favorite is WWE superstar Drew McIntyre. He is fond of The Scottish Warrior’s character work and innovative quips.
If there is one storyline he can work on in WWE, Shubhajit would book Roman Reigns’ future with The Bloodline following WrestleMania XL, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former. After Reigns’ exit from the faction, Shubhajit would portray him as an anti-hero trying hard to claw his way back up to the top.
