Nikkita Lyons was able to come out on top the last time she met Lash Legend in the ring, but it’s time for the rematch. With Natalya watching closely following Lyons calling her out last week on NXT 2.0 – pressure will be high tonight. Legend recently took a trip to the UK, and could look to show her fresh skills tonight.
Nikitta Lyons Defeats Lash Legend, Natalya & Cora Jade Clash After The Bell
Legend would hit the ring with some fury, before Lyons would be able to drop her with a big spin kick. A receipt came with a back elbow smash, before Lyons hit the Thesz Press and some mounted punches on the mat. Legend would dump Lyons out of the ring, and followed up by driving her into the steel steps.
Back in the ring, Legend kept the pressure on with some heavy strikes before getting cocky. Lyons would take advantage with a quick pinfall attempt, before Legend hit a big swinging sidewalk slam. Legend would apply a neck crank, but Lyons fought free.
A series of suplexes would follow, before Lyons threw some haymakers in the corner before being taken up for a powerbomb. Lyons countered into a hurricanrana before a spin kick for the win. After the match, Natalya attacked from behind – but Cora Jade would even up the odds by attacking Legend.
Natalya and Jade came face to face, but Lyons saved her from once again being locked in the Sharpshooter. A tag team match could be in the works here – and Legend seemed like a natural fit to work alongside a legend like Natalya.

D’Angelo would finally be able to hit a set of suplexes, but Wagner was able to launch a powerful lariat before taking a punch to the jaw.
Legado Del Fantasma ran a distraction as Santos Escobar would take D’Angelo down with a crowbar to the knee. Robert Stone warned him to not get back into the ring, but he did and Wagner simply ran him down with a big boot for the victory,
