On “WWE SmackDown,” Tiffany Stratton and Jade Cargill qualified for the ladder match at SummerSlam to crown a brand new interim women’s champion.
In the primary match, Fatal Influence attacked Stratton before the bell rang. Paige & Brie Bella immediately come out to attack Lainey Reid and Fallon Henley and so they brawled to the back. After the bell rang, Stratton chopped Jayne across the ring. Stratton dropkicked Jayne and kept the offense on her. Stratton connected with an Alabama Slam. Jayne responded with a swinging neckbreaker. Stratton blocked a Rolling Encore and landed a rolling senton & the Prettiest Moosault Ever to advance.
Cargill was accompanied to the ring by Michin and B-Fab for the second match. Cargill missed with a giant boot, allowing Jax to land a Samoan Drop. Cargill connected with a spinebuster on Jax. Charlotte Flair attacked Michin on the skin and got within the ring to land a dropkick on Cargill. The bell rang to finish the match and Flair got a chair, but Cargill was saved by Michin & B-Fab. After it was announced that Cargill won by DQ, Jax attacked Flair and left the ring. Cargill hit Flair with Jaded and posed over her body.
After the match, Pearce told Jax she’ll get one other opportunity to qualify for the match next week against Flair. Before the show began, Adam Pearce announced on social media that resulting from Rhea Ripley’s injury and an unknown timetable for her return, an interim champion might be crowned at SummerSlam.
