Back from the break, Shida got in the match and took the advantage. She hit a running knee lift on Britt Baker and then a vertical suplex for a near fall. Nyla Rose inadvertently splashed Baker in the corner. Statlander and Shida picked up rose and tossed her on top of Baker.

Shida hit the running knee strike on Nyla Rose, but only got a two count. At some point, Britt Baker got hurt.

Nyla Rose hit the beast bomb for the pinfall victory on Shida.
