Perez faced Legend in a back-and-forth contest on the latest edition of the developmental brand. While Legend tried to take control of the match, Perez countered her moves. Lash Legend attempted to lift Roxanne Perez for a suplex, but the latter turned it into a sleeper hold.
Towards the end of the match, Perez attempted a Side Russian Leg Sweep, but her opponent kicked out. Legend then lifted Perez once again for a powerbomb, but the latter countered it with the Pop Rocks and pinned her for the win.
