Nile then rolled out of the ring while Ripley followed that up with a Riptide to Valkyria, securing the winning pinfall after nine and a half minutes. After the match, commentary placed emphasis on the performance of Nile despite coming up short. She has not won a match on "Raw" since beating Zelina Vega in October 2024. With her win, Ripley will be competing inside her second Elimination Chamber match.
