Candice LeRae vs Reina Gonzalez
LeRae tried to take the fight to the imposing Gonzalez, but the size difference was too much to handle at first. A stiff rear clothesline took down LeRae, who was slammed into the mat with a spinning powerslam.
LeRae managed to damage Gonzalez's arm with a double knee arm breaker, then sent her outside with a schoolboy through the apron. A springboard crossbody was caught by Gonzalez, but LeRae escaped her grasp, sending her into the ring steps.
Back inside, a flying hurricanrana from the top rope sent Gonzalez across the ring into the corner. LeRae followed up with a series of punches and a top rope missile dropkick. Gonzalez was put away after a springboard moonsault.
Results: Candice LeRae defeated Reina Gonzalez via pinfall.
After the match, LeRae was surrounded by the Horsewomen. Shayna Baszler, Jessamyn Duke, and Marina Shafir brought a 3-on-1 beatdown to LeRae, but she was saved by Io Shirai, who was carrying a kendo stick. Shirai broke the stick across the backs of all three women, sending them scurrying up the ramp as she checked on LeRae.
