After a near 20 minute match, Jinny wins the match with a roll up pin victory on Storm with some help from the interfering House of Couture (Chakara & Nina Samuels). This defeat to Storm ended her 357 day reign. Storm defended the belt 14 times in the near year of her reign.
After the match, Storm did state she was not finished with Jinny.
PROGRESS took to Twitter to show Storm hitting a Strong Zero to Jinny on the stage and also congratulating Jinny on her victory:
