Vic Joseph and Blake Howard are on commentary.

Zelina Vega vs. Jordynne Grace

Vega comes out to Aleister Black's theme. They just called Vega "Zelina" here.

JG side headlocks Vega and takes her over. Vega headscissors her then side headlock takeovers her. Vega ducks a lariat and smiles at her. JG back elbows her and knocks her down twice. JG hits a big ending for 2. 

JG headbutts her. JG boots her on the apron. Vega goes for a sunset bomb off the apron. Vega trips her on the apron. Vega meteora's her off the apron. JG's head is banged off the commentary table. Vega knee drops JG's arm into the commentary table for a 1 count.

Vega hits mounted corner punches. Vega armlocks her in the ring. JG suplexes her. JG slams her. Vega hits chest forearms. JG spinebusters her. JG sitout package powerbombs her for 2. JG hits a world's strongest slam. JG misses a vader bomb. Vega codebreakers her arm.

Vega spinning ddt's her. Vega pumping knees her for 2. JG sits her up top. Vega meteora's her off the buckles. JG essentially no sells it. JG uraken's her. JG hits a backpack stunner for the win.

Thoughts: It was acceptable. Vega worked the arm some before going down and JG muscled her around some. That knee drop Vega did on JG's arm on the commentary table had to hurt her more than JG.

Raquel Rodriguez vs. Maxxine Dupri

RR shoves her off the lock up. Max backs her up in the corner. RR rakes her forearm in Max's face. RR blocks a sunset flip. Max high kiks her. Max goes up and over then flying headscissors her out. Max cannonballs her off the apron. Max misses a top rope move and is facekicked for 2.

RR hits punches. RR hits elbow drops. RR slingshot suplexes her for 2. RR does a tazzmission to her then throws her down backwards. Max ddt's her out of a suplex attempt. 

Max hits lariats and step up legdrops her on the back. Max is caught off the top. RR blocks a spinning high kick and one arm powerbombs her to win.

Thoughts: I was interested to see who would win here as either could have pulled it off. It was acceptable. RR caught Max as she tried a lot of moves and used her power on her. Max's push has cooled off lately and I'm curious as to what they do with her from now on.

Overall thoughts: There were only 2 new matches as usual and a few ads for Mania.  There was nothing you needed to see here but what we got was acceptable. It wasn't a bad way to spend 15 minutes or so.
