The match between Sasha Banks and Ruby Riott was headed for the “meh” list in its early stages, a basic and somewhat bland match that wasn’t really clicking.

But we’ll give some kudos to the two for pulling together a respectable match that worked pretty well by the end, with Riott hitting a stage dive senton and Banks trying everything to grab a quick win before the Riott Squad interjected.

However, Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan made their presence felt, saving Ruby from a Banks Statement. The Boss did an admirable job trying to take out the two, but she succumbed to the numbers, which was to be expected in this case.
