Io Shirai's elimination came when a prolonged tussle with Ember Moon (who almost had her out on several occasions) ended as Nia Jax entered the fray. Moon peeled off, Shirai charged at Nia, got booted in the gut for her troubles, scaled the top rope, got caught on her attempted Moonsault, then found herself sent to the outside.
