Jinny applies a single-leg Boston Crab. McKenzie and Jinny take this up a notch by trading blows. McKenzie hoists Jinny and dumps her on the mat with a high angle back suplex for another near-fall. No surprise, Joseph Conners tries to get involved in this match. The NXT UK Women's Champion Meiko Satomura runs out to stop him.
