The match started out as expected of a personal feud, with both women heading to the outside and exchanging blows. Flair got the better of the exchange with a back body drop onto the barricade before getting Stratton back into the ring.

The two continued to duke it out in the ring, with Flair taking a page from NXT Women’s Champion Stephanie Vaquer’s book for some creative offense. Flair and Stratton continued to trade moves, with neither getting a definitive advantage.

The match started to take a turn when Stratton focused on Flair’s surgically repaired knee, but the challenger continued to fight off the assault and responded by applying some damage to the champion’s leg. After using the ring post, Flair locked in her father’s signature Figure Four Leg Lock, but Stratton broke out.

Loving this match so far, it feels like two people who don’t like each other are going to war against each other. Very gritty and stiff match.#WrestleMania

An exchange on the top rope leads to Flair hitting Natural Selection on to Stratton! Another near fall!
