Dakota Kai vs. Tegan Nox - Steel Cage match
Dakota Kai avoided the Shiniest Wizard early on and was grinding Nox's face into the steel cage with her boot. Nox moved towards the door but a scorpion kick from Kai followed by a rolling lung-blower almost cost her the match.
Gonzalez kept the door closed as Nox tried to get out but Nox kicked Kai into the door, knocking it open and sending Gonzalez down. Nox hit the Shiniest Wizard on Kai but Gonzalez stopped her from leaving through the cage door. Nox climbed up the wall and to the outside of the cage but Gonzalez trapped her with the cage door as Kai crawled out through the open door.
Result: Dakota Kai def. Tegan Nox
