All three competitors delivered impressive performances in a fast-paced encounter. Bliss showed why she remains one of WWE’s most dependable athletes, enduring the combined offense of Vega and Giulia before executing her winning move.
Competitive Exchanges Define the Path to Qualification
The match was fierce from the outset, with Bliss immediately taking charge using a double leg takedown on Zelina Vega. Giulia quickly asserted herself as well, resulting in an evenly matched contest marked by frequent near-falls. Vega displayed her technical abilities by executing a Saito suplex, while Giulia relied on powerful strikes and a crushing curb stomp.
Despite their efforts, Bliss demonstrated resilience and strategic awareness by countering their attacks and creating openings. A critical moment occurred when Kiana James tried to interfere on Giulia’s behalf; Vega responded by removing both James and Giulia from the ring area. Seizing that opportunity, Bliss hit her signature Sister Abigail DDT to claim the pinfall.
