Natalya vs. Tamina

Before the match, Sasha and Naomi had some disagreement as to who would face Natalya until Tamina stepped up.

Natalya began with a kick but got kneed by Tamina. She locked in Natalya’s wrist and slammed her down. She hit Natalya in the back and hit a scoop slam. This was followed by a knee drop and a missed one. Natalya hit a basement dropkick for a one-count.

Tamina hit a big kick and held Natalya on the ropes.

Tamina then locked Natalya in a hold. Nattie started fighting back but got hit with a clothesline. She got Irish Whipped into the ropes but came back with a spinning clothesline.

Natalya went for the Sharpshooter but Sasha caused a distraction. Tamina hit the Samoan Drop and went to the top rope. However, she missed a move and got rolled up for the pin.

Rob’s Note: This was mostly about tensions building between Sasha and Naomi. Only a matter of time before Banks breaks away.
