Ripley shoves Aliyah across the ring into the corner, terrifying her opponent. AN attempt at a sleeper hold was easily quelled, with Ripley slamming her on the mat and battering her with a series of short-arm lariats followed by a standing dropkick.
Ripley tore Aliyah's legs apart with a deadlift modified Figure-4, then spun her around the ring before slamming her face first. With the hold still locked in and the torque only getting worse, Aliyah tapped out.
Results: Rhea Ripley defeated Aliyah via submission.
Ripley took a microphone after the match to let the Queen of Spades know that she's coming for the NXT Women's Championship. Shayna Baszler has forced all of her previous challengers to tap, nap, or snap, but the last time she was in the ring with the former UK Women's Champion, she had to get bailed out by her two cronies.
