Bayley came out and tried to get the referee to ring the bell and declare that nobody came out to face her. Then Asuka’s music hit. She had previously defeated Zelina Vega in the night, but Asuka was looking to become a double champion.

Asuka took the fight to Bayley, and then she rolled out of the ring. Bayley grabbed a chair and fired off a shot on Asuka which caused the referee to ring the bell.

Sasha Banks jumped Bayley from out of nowhere with a chair of her own. She beat Bayley down to make the point clear that she’s not done with her former best friend.

Nikki Cross wasn’t able to make the show, but WWE figured something out with the people they had available.
