The Pirate Princess is back!
Kairi Sane has returned to WWE and has made a huge impression in the SmackDown women’s division by returning to the company at Crown Jewel. She returned at the end of the WWE Women’s Championship match to help IYO SKY retain against Bianca Belair.
Final moments of the match had Bayley come out to assist much to the disapproval of SKY. SKY inadvertently knocks Bayley down on the outside as she was going for Belair. With SKY back in the ring and the referee distracted, Belair had Bayley up in position for the KOD as she tried to land it on the announce desk. Enter Kairi Sane.
Sane took out Belair without the referee’s notice. Once back in the win, SKY gets the pin on Belair. Post-match, Bayley watches in surprise on the outside as Sane hits the insane elbow on Belair and both SKY and Sane celebrate. Commentary references Bayley as the one who took out Sane from the WWE the last time we saw her.
Earlier in the event we had Rhea Ripley retain in a Fatal Five way for the Women’s World Championship. The other competitors were Shayna Baszler, Nia Jax, Zoey Stark, and Raquel Rodriguez. A really strong outing by all five women but it would be the Eradicator that would prove why she is champion.
The final moments had Ripley Riptide Stark off the top rope on top of Rodriguez and Baszler. Ripley pins Baszler to retain.
