Match 8: Becky Lynch vs Giulia
This one has a big fight feel, and the crowd is split. Becky brings her signature intensity, and Giulia counters with brutal stiff strikes and icy calmness. They trade early technical holds before taking it to the outside where Giulia suplexes Becky into the barricade.
Back inside, Becky hits a missile dropkick and applies the Dis-Arm-Her, but Giulia refuses to tap and claws her way to the ropes. Becky gets fired up, goes for the Manhandle Slam — but Giulia slips behind, counters into a hammerlock back suplex.
Becky stumbles up, and Giulia hits the Glorious Driver right in the center of the ring. One, two, three.
Winner: Giulia
