WWE Women’s Championship Match: Jade Cargill (c) vs. Rhea Ripley

  • Adam Weitsman is at the commentary table (owner and CEO of Upstate Shredding). Jade Cargill makes her way to the ring. It is her first match one-on-one against Rhea Ripley. She seems incredibly confident.
  • They stare at each other. Elbow tie-up. Cargill attacks with a shoulder and a slam. Ripley slams Cargill face-first and hits a missile dropkick. Powerslam by Cargill. She sends Ripley outside, into the barricades. Back in the ring, Blue Thunder Bomb by Cargill. Ripley smiles, but Cargill locks her in a Crossface. Huge kick in Cargill’s face. Punches unloaded. Now, kicks. Riptide turns into a hiptoss. Cargill continues with a Spinebuster. Ripley seems to have a jaw issue.
  • Jaded countered. Powerbomb turns into a hurricanrana from Ripley. Michin and B-Fab interfere. Electric Chair, snowstorm, but Ripley kicks out. IYO SKY is here to save Ripley. No referee stoppage??? Ripley with the Riptide, no. Pump kick by Cargill. Jaded turns into Riptide. And NEW, Rhea Ripley.
  • Ten minutes and 9 seconds, for this match, but why the interferences? Ripley and Cargill were able to provide something great on their own.

  • John Cena comes. Attendance for Night Two: 55,255 – Attendance for the 2 Nights: 106,072.
  • Cena wants to say thank you, but The Miz and Kit Wilson are coming. Miz wants a Mania moment. Here comes mini-Danhausens. And Danhausen in the DanMobile. I refuse to comment on that… Wilson is NutCracked, and Miz is cursed. Miz is brought backstage. Seems like Pyro didn’t work, and Danhausen didn’t disappear as he was supposed to. Rest in Danhausen…
