An interesting point to note was that three women made their NXT debuts in this match- Candice, Bianca Blair and Victoria Gonzalez.
It was time for the main event. We saw the women make their way to the ring, one by one. We saw a promotional message for Aleister Black's return, the week after. More women came in, and Ember Moon was the final contestant for the prize. Victoria Gonzalez, one of the largest superstars in the ring, seized the advantage early and went after Billie Kay and Peyton Royce. The women all got tied up on the ropes with the crowd chanting for Candice LeRae, who was also a part of the match. Several women escaped being dumped out in the initial stages of the match, and there was no elimination for a while. We went into commercial at this point.
After coming back from break, we found out that Billie and Peyton had eliminated Victoria Gonzalez. The Iconic Duo survived another elimination attempt and saved themselves in time. Aliyah joined the fray by disposing of Rachel Evers. Liv Morgan eliminated another wrestler while Billie and Peyton eliminated four participants. Billie Kay then eliminated Candice LeRae to an overwhelming shower of boos. Aliyah was eliminated by Nikki Cross, and the crowd surprisingly thanked her for it. Ruby Riot narrowly escaped, while Nikki Cross eliminated Liv Morgan to much applause. Ember Moon then eliminated both Billie Kay and Peyton Royce immediately.
This left only Ember Moon, Ruby Riot and Nikki Cross in the ring. At this [oint, Asuka came in and took all four women out, one by one. The referee declared the bout a ‘no contest’, after the shocking interference by the Women’s Champion. William Regal came out and declared that there would be a Fatal Four Way match at NXT Takeover: Chicago, for the NXT Women's Championship.
Result: No contest
