It was a match 21 months in the making as that was the last time the two women faced off for the AEW TBS Championship, but in the end, it was Nightingale who got the win and made her first successful defense of the title she took from Mercedes Mone on New Year's Eve. Nightingale had the control in the early going despite Hart trying to cut her off. However, Skye Blue provided a momentary distraction for the challenger to help her get back in the match as the match headed into the commercial break.
