NXT Women's Championship Match: Candice LeRae vs Shayna Baszler (c)

Baszler quickly took LeRae to the mat, almost toying with her. However, LeRae responded with an enziguri to the jaw and a baseball slide as Baszler sat on the apron. A springboard crossbody took out Baszler.

Back inside, Baszler was rolled up but quickly kicked out after a neckbreaker. However, LeRae kept up the assault, dropping the champ with a slingshot jawbreaker and a senton. Baszler broke out of a pinfall and finally took over when she grabbed a hold of the challenger's left arm, kicking in the joint manipulation.

LeRae struggled to get to her feet only for Baszler to smash her face off the mat. However, she was able to trap Baszler in an octopus stretch, using her free leg to pelt Baszler in the face with knee strikes. Baszler forced her way to the corner, leading to a rope break. LeRae climbed to the top but Baszler pulled her legs out from under her, seeing LeRae bounce off the top turnbuckle and crash to the apron and ground below.

The challenger was launched shoulder first into the steel steps, softening up her left arm for Baszler's submission based offense. Baszler set LeRae's arm up for a massive stomp through the steps, nearly breaking it in half.

Back inside the ring, Baszler tore at the left arm as the Full Sail crowd was forced to hear the pained wails of LeRae. As she crawled away to the apron, Baszler followed, where she was nearly dumped to the ground with an apron German suplex. Baszler broke away but a leaping flatliner onto the side of the ring sent Baszler to the outside. LeRae followed up with three painful dives. Baszler was left exhausted on the floor.

LeRae rolled her inside and went to the top, only for the champion to connect with a vicious uppercut. She followed LeRae to the opt but was sent down to the mat, landing flat on her back. Again she ascended the ropes, and caught LeRae before she could make another dive, sending her crashing to the mat below with a super gutwrench suplex.

Another gutwrench slam left LeRae crumpled at Baszler's feet, but she managed to kick out at two. A roll-up gave LeRae a nearfall, and as Baszler kicked out she responded with a kick to the jaw. Baszler countered the second kick with a roll-through, tripping LeRae up and kicking her in the jaw.

The challenger avoided an attack from Baszler as she got back to her feet and responded with a rebound German suplex. Baszler responded with the Kirifuda Clutch, but LeRae slipped out and trapped the champion in it instead. Baszler escaped and hung LeRae in a clutch at the top rope. LeRae slipped through again and brought Baszler to the mat with a swinging neckbreaker from the second rope.

Candice LeRae rolled up Shayna Baszler after another Kirifuda Clutch attempt, but after missing her springboard moonsault, Baszler finally locked it in. LeRae refused to quit, nearly standing on her feet with the weight and pressure of the champion on her back. Eventually, though, she fell to the dominant Queen of Spades.
