Sol Ruca (c) w/ Zaria vs. Izzi Dame w/ The Culling

From there, she methodically targeted Ruca’s midsection with knee strikes and gutbusters. Ruca, however, showed her resilience with a Triangle Moonsault and springboard offense. Despite interference from Paxley, Zaria evened the odds at ringside, allowing Ruca to capitalize in a high-octane closing stretch.
