Ups...

5. Nyla Rose vs. Rache Chanel

Rache Chanel hasn't looked great in longer squashes, so it's fortunate that AEW kept her bout with Nyla Rose relatively brief.

'The Native Beast' dropped a couple of big bombs early and appeared to have the match won. She pulled out of a pinfall at two, however, allowing Chanel a route back into the match, through which she landed a few hits of her own, including accidentally booting a camera. Her offensive spell lasted only a few seconds, however, as she was eventually flattened via Beast Bomb.

Simple, short, and one-sided enough to be effective, this was all it needed to be. Rose needs to crush people in this manner on a more regular basis.
