Match
Charlotte and Bayley got off to a slow start, but they both went for pinfall attempts with their feet on the ropes. Action spilled to the outside where Charlotte tossed Bayley over the barricade. Charlotte then got on the headset and told Sasha to get out there, so she could beat them both. Smackdown went to commercial.
Back from the break, Charlotte maintained the advantage in the ring. When Charlotte went for her moonsault, Bayley pulled her off the ropes. On the outside, Bayley pushed Charlotte into the barricade and then the ring apron. Bayley maintained the advantage in the ring until Charlotte caught her and hit a fall away slam.
Charlotte missed her moonsault, but hit Bayley with a big boot for a near fall. Bayley went for the flying elbow drop, but Charlotte put her knees up and then cinched in a high angle Boston crab. After Bayley escaped, Charlotte went face first into the turnbuckle allowing Bayley to hit the flying elbow for the near fall.
Bayley rolled up Charlotte, hooked the ropes, and pinned Charlotte Flair.
