Expanded Match Details: Six Woman Tag Team Match
The Six Woman Tag Team Match saw intense back-and-forth action. After a brief flurry by Chelsea Green and her allies, the heels seized control during the commercial break, isolating Iyo Sky and working over her with a rear chin lock. A hot tag to Tiffany Stratton sparked a comeback for the babyfaces, with Stratton targeting Liv Morgan with a back elbow. When Raquel Rodriguez momentarily gained the upper hand, Stratton evaded a Vader Bomb elbow drop. The action escalated, culminating in an Unprettier from Green to Perez. Morgan then pulled Green to the floor, where she delivered Oblivion for the win. Green tried for the Unprettier again but was distracted by Perez, allowing Morgan to capitalize.
Intercontinental Championship Match: Gable vs. Page
The bout saw Gable target Page’s neck. A source noted that “Chad should probably find a way to get Big ejected from ringside tonight to give himself the best chance to walk out of Brooklyn with the belt.”
