Riott Squad vs. Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, and Naomi

Result: Ruby Riott pins Becky after a Riott Kick

Grade: B-

Naomi always gets me pumped up with her entrance, so mad props to her!

Sarah Logan starts off against Charlotte Flair, but The Queen calls out Ruby Riott instead. Ruby ignores her, allowing Logan to begin before Naomi quickly tags in.

Logan tries to use her strength, but Naomi kips-up to Logan’s surprise, showing off her insane speed and athleticism. Then Becky Lynch tags in and serves up some Straight Fiyyyaahhh to Logan.

Liv Morgan and Naomi had an awesome sequence that ended with a split-legged moonsault, but the Riott Squad pulled Morgan out of harms way. Naomi then dove to the outside to take out the Riott Squad, but Liv tossed Naomi right into the steel steps.

Sarah Logan then tagged back in to put Naomi in a hold and a babyface-in-peril spot. Charlotte is the one who makes the hot tag, but Logan starts targeting on the leg after a distraction from Morgan.

Becky and Riott end up tagging in, and Becky has a great sequence of moves. She puts Riott in the Dis-Arm-Her, but Morgan breaks it up. And thanks to all the chaos, Becky eats a Riott Kick and the pin for a momentum-boosting win for the Riott Squad that will ultimately do nothing.

Liv Morgan and Becky Lynch were the MVPs of this match and helped make it worth watching. Naomi, Ruby Riott, and Sarah Logan were also very good.

In a segment afterwards, Sami Zayn tells Kevin Owens that he’s willing to lie down for Kevin Owens to go onto WrestleMania with the title. He says that he looks up to KO and that KO doesn’t need an enemy…he needs Zayn to be his Guardian Angel.
