Stephanie Vaquer returned to action against Roxanne Perez, but The Judgment Day once again attempted to influence the outcome. Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez became involved at ringside, creating problems for Vaquer throughout the match.
Becky Lynch came to Vaquer’s aid and helped neutralize the interference. Vaquer capitalized on the opening and secured the victory. After the match, Lynch and Vaquer shared a tense moment, with Lynch making it clear that she had now helped Vaquer on multiple occasions.

Penta def. La Parka
Penta faced La Parka in the second tournament semifinal and punched his ticket to the final. The victory set up a major showdown between Penta and his brother Rey Fenix.
