Queen Aminata beats Allysin Kay by submission in a Pure Rules Match.

We hear from Serena Deeb, who says that she has been here five years and has nothing to show for it. She says she is sick and tired of faking being happy and having a smile on her face as other walk out with their flowers while she is still here. She says she is not here for the celebrity or the social media; she is here for professional wrestling. She questions why the locker room is here half the time if not for wrestling, but after hearing about the ROH Pure Women's Championship, she knew that the championship was made for her and was more sure of this than anything else. She considers the championship the culmination of her life's work as she finds the purity of wrestling more beautiful than anything in the world, and declares she will become the first-ever Pure Women's Champion.

Atlantis Jr., Fuego and Neon beat Barbaro Cavernario, Volador Jr. and Hechicero in a Lucha de Trios Match.
