Tegan Nox has a ton of potential, we could easily see her going all the way and winning the tournament. This was a highly competitive match between two skilled competitors, Nox defeating Zatara with her Shining Wizard finisher.
Winner: Tegan Nox
Rhea Ripley vs. MJ Jenkins

Rhea Ripley wasted no time getting aggressive with MJ Jenkins, absolutely wrecking her competitor throughout much of the match. Jenkins had moments of offense, but it became clear fairly quickly that she didn’t really stand a chance.
Winner: Rhea Ripley
Lacey Lane vs. Vanessa Kraven

Lacey Lane is obviously a freak athlete, but at 6’2″, Vanessa Kraven had the power and size advantage she needed to control most of the match. Kraven appeared to be headed toward a victory, but Lacey Lane shifted the momentum at the last second and advanced in the tournament via a beautiful Crucifix Bomb with a pinning combination.
Winner: Lacey Lane
Killer Kelly vs. Meiko Satomura

Meiko Satomura is a wrestling legend, so seeing her in this tournament was awesome. Killer Kelly actually gave her a run for her money, refusing to be defeated easily by Satomura. After a fun, hard-hitting match, Satomura brought Kelly down with a Death Valley Driver.
Winner: Meiko Satomura
