Liv Morgan def. Shayna Baszler to retain SmackDown Women’s Championship
The only woman who has pinned Ronda Rousey twice took on Rousey’s supposed best friend in Shayna Baszler in another test of Morgan’s young reign.
A Kirifuda Clutch right out of the gate nearly caught Morgan by surprise before she rolled through and into a pinning attempt. Baszler went right for the left arm of Morgan, which had been injured by Rousey in Morgan’s title defense at SummerSlam.
Even with the bad arm, Morgan showed fight, screaming while kipping up before connecting with double knees to the face.
As Baszler was about to break Morgan’s arm, Morgan countered with an armbar, almost capturing the victory in what would be a humiliating way to lose for Baszler. Survival was Morgan’s MO for the match, especially when Baszler applied the Kirifuda Clutch on multiple occasions.
Morgan shocked Baszler with another double knees, capping it off with the Oblivion to once more survive a tremendous SmackDown Women’s Title defense.
