Hazuki pinned Persephone with the Hazukistral Cradle in a Women’s Owen Hart Tournament Match in 12:21. Hazuki once again had the SPARK Joshi Title with her. Persephone had the CMLL Women’s World Title. Mercedes Mone ran in the ring after the match as Hazuki went to the locker room. Mone jumped Persephone and put her in the Statement Maker. Hazuki ran back out to make the save but Mone attacked her too until security put a stop to it. Mone arrogantly showed off the Owen Women’s Tournament Title belt. Hazuki did a dive on Mone and beat her up as Mone was finally leaving the ringside area. The announcers said it will be Mone vs. Hazuki in the Semifinals on June 17.
