WWE NXT Women’s North American Championship Ladder Match: Thea Hail vs. Lola Vice vs. Izzi Dame vs. Kelani Jordan vs. Zaria vs. Sol Ruca
Zaria & Sol Ruca came out together, as Booker T says he doesn’t like that since they are facing off in this match. They all start by taking it to the outside and grabbing ladders, with Izzi Dame sending Zaria right into the steel steps. Ruca & Kelani Jordan start fighting with a ladder, before Ruca sets one up and starts climbing, but Thea Hail stops her with a DDT.

Kelani starts going after everyone, taking out Hail & Ruca with an Asai Moonsault.

Lola hits hip attacks on everyone, but Ruca dodges her as Lola smashes her fist against the ladder. Thea starts climbing the ladder and gets to the top, but Izzi pulls the ladder away with Thea still on it and joins her on top, as Thea takes her down with an arm bar. The rest of The Culling come out to check on Izzi, as Zaria pushes the ladder down, and Thea goes diving onto The Culling. Kelani starts attacking Zaria with a ladder, but her partner Ruca stops her. They wedge a ladder between the ropes and another ladder as Ruca, Kelani & Zaria start fighting on top of the bridged ladder just for Lola to push them off and put a choke on Zaria, who starts climbing up the ladder just to pass out from the choke as they both fall on top of the bridged ladder. Kelani takes advantage and hits Lola with a Frog Splash on the ladder. Kelani & Ruca climb the ladder, but Zaria pulls off Kelani and press slams her onto The Culling on the outside. Ruca & Zaria both climb the ladder and face off, realizing they have to stop fighting, which they do.

They all start fighting on the outside before the match can start, before we realize which three members of DarkState are being represented here, with Cutler James sitting this one out.

As the referee is dealing with Cutler on the outside, Lorenzo saves D’Angelo and takes out Shugars with the crowbar. D’Angelo turns his back as Lorenzo teases, attacking him with the crowbar, but doesn’t. As the referee takes away the crowbar, Lorenzo hits a low blow on D’Angelo anyway with a kick.
