In the end, Bianchi’s experience and skill proved to be too much for O’Connor, as he emerged victorious and retained his title.
“I’m not surprised by the result,” Bianchi said in a post-match interview. “Liam is a talented young wrestler, but he’s still learning the ways of the ring. I’ve been in this business long enough to know how to win, and that’s exactly what I did tonight.”

“I’m absolutely over the moon right now,” Reyes said in a post-match interview. “Ava is an incredible wrestler, but I knew I had the skills and the determination to take her down. This is just the beginning of my journey to greatness, and I’m excited to see what the future holds.”

Parker, known for her quickness and agility, was looking to take down the formidable Jordan, who was riding a hot streak of late. The match was a closely contested affair, with both women trading holds and reversals until the very end. In the end, it was Jordan who emerged victorious, outlasting Parker in a hard-hitting and physical match.
“I’m thrilled with the way I performed tonight,” Parker said in a post-match interview. “Kelani is an incredibly tough opponent, and I knew I had to bring my A-game to take her down. Even though I came up short, I’m proud of the way I competed and I’m looking forward to getting back in the ring soon.”
The show also featured a number of other notable matches, including a dominating victory by the team of Damian Priest and Roderick Strong over the team of Eddie Kingston and Santos Escobar.
