Near the end of the WWE Women’s World Championship match between Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan, Dominik Mysterio managed to unlock the door to the shark cage he was locked in that was above the rampway. After being afraid to actually leave because of his fear of heights, Mysterio ended up falling out of the cage but his foot got caught up causing him to dangle from it in the air. This led to Ripley noticing what happened and told the referee she has some unfinished business with Mysterio and will return to the match in a few as Morgan laid knocked out in the ring. Ripley proceeded to grab a kendo stick from under the ring and made her way towards Mysterio. Ripley then decided to play human pinata with Mysterio as the pinata and struck him with several kendo stick shots.

This led to a mystery person running out and attacked Ripley from behind. This mystery person was revealed to be Rodriguez making her surprise return. This led to the referee calling for the bell as Rodriguez grabbed Ripley and tossed her back into the ring. Following the match, Rodriguez hit a Tejana Bomb to Ripley and placed Morgan on top of Ripley for the symbolic pin.
