Yuka gets the magical girl splash for the pin and the win.
Winner: Yuka Sakazaki
This match felt off as if they were a step behind each other from time to time. I know this is Yuka’s first match back after breaking her leg, so she may have been fighting off ring rust. Hopefully she can get back to the smooth flow of a match she had before the injury as I like her work.
After the match, May attacks Yuka on the stage, but Yuka quickly recovers and gets a mule kick. Yuka then picks up the belt and gives it back to May gently.
We get a video package for the Outrunners and it is filmed like those low resolution 1980s videotapes.
