Wren Sinclair's battle royal win
The battle royal drew women from NXT, Raw, SmackDown, Evolve, TNA and AAA. The field included NXT Women's North American Champion Zaria, TNA Knockouts World Champion Xia Brookside, Evolve Women's Champion Nikkita Lyons and AAA Reina de Reinas Champion La Catalina, along with Reina Volcan, Kali Armstrong, Izzi Dame, Thea Hail, Lizzy Rain, Kiana James, Indi Hartwell, Skylar Raye, Arianna Grace, Layla Diggs, Ivy Nile, Adelicious, Chantel Monroe and the Elegance Brand pair of Heather and M.
Izzi Dame threw out Layla Diggs for the first elimination and was put out by Zaria soon after. Late in the match Armstrong cleared La Catalina, Kiana James and Lizzy Rain in quick succession and celebrated as if she had won. The masked Lady Shani then rolled back into the ring, dumped Armstrong over the top rope and took off the mask to show she was Sinclair.
Jordan opened the night by talking about the match, and both Monroe and Diggs interrupted to say the title shot should be theirs. Sinclair was suspended by general manager Robert Stone after she attacked Jordan and a referee on the September 8 episode. Jordan has held the title since beating Kendal Grey at Heatwave on August 30.
Zilla Fatu, BirthRight and the Dusty Classic
Fatu went after the BirthRight group before the opening bell and then beat Lexis King with the Triple Z, even with King using a distraction from Arianna Grace. BirthRight attacked him after the match. Charlie Dempsey hit him with a steel chair, and the group crushed his hand against the ring steps.
Sean Legacy and Dorian Van Dux, Fatu's partners in recent weeks, were also attacked backstage and could not wrestle their first-round match in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. William Regal suggested that Dempsey and King take their place against the Tokyo Bad Boys, and Stone reluctantly agreed. The Tokyo Bad Boys kept the pace high with dives and a springboard 450 splash, but Dempsey sent one of them shoulder first into the ring post and won with a bridging suplex. Dempsey then took a commentary headset and said Fatu, Legacy and Van Dux had been made examples of what happens to anyone who stands up to BirthRight.
Earlier, Hank Walker and Tank Ledger beat the Evolve team of Shido Ash and Viktor Zanov to reach the quarterfinals. Ash and Zanov had the better of several exchanges with their judo style before Walker isolated Ash for the finish.
Naraku vs. Shiloh Hill ends in chaos
The rematch between Naraku and Shiloh Hill had no winner. Naraku aimed his mist at Hill and hit the referee instead, and the official waved the match off. The two kept brawling after the bell until they were pulled apart and the feud is still unsettled.
Grayson Waller's next challenger
NXT Champion Grayson Waller came out to praise EK Prosper's recent performance and claimed some of the credit for it. Myles Borne interrupted and said he was done living up to other people's expectations. Tony D'Angelo followed, saying he had unfinished business with the champion. Waller suggested the two settle it one on one next week for a shot at him at Halloween Havoc, and Stone later confirmed the match. Borne ended the segment by dropping D'Angelo with a right hand. Backstage, Borne promised to beat D'Angelo and then take the title.
