With the help of Kai on her back, Gonzalez pinned Blackheart to the mat after she connected with her vicious spine slam finisher. Moon had been taken out of the match after Gonzalez pushed her off of the stage ramp and into the cage that circles the ring in the Capital Wrestling Center.

To reach the finals of the tournament, Gonzalez & Kai defeated Aliyah & Jessi Kamea in the first round. They then beat Kacy Catanzaro & Kayden Carter in the semi-finals.
