Lash Legend stood tall at the end of a six-woman tag team match on SmackDown, teaming with Jacy Jayne and Tiffany Stratton to defeat Roxanne Perez, Lola Vice, and Sol Ruca. The match featured all six competitors who are scheduled to meet again Saturday in the Money in the Bank ladder match, turning the tag contest into a preview of the stakes awaiting them.
According to Diva Dirt, the finish came when Legend tossed Vice to seal the victory for her team of Jayne and Stratton. The result gives Legend’s side a measure of momentum into the weekend, though a tag team win carries no guarantee of outcome in a multi-woman ladder match where every participant is fighting for the same briefcase.
With Legend, Jayne, Stratton, Perez, Vice, and Ruca all confirmed for Saturday’s Money in the Bank match, the SmackDown tag bout served as a direct build to that showcase. Money in the Bank matches are built around chaos and individual opportunism rather than team allegiance, so Saturday’s structure will scatter the alliances seen on SmackDown. Legend, Jayne, and Stratton will no longer be working together, and Perez, Vice, and Ruca will be looking to reverse the result from the go-home show.
The ladder match format means the SmackDown finish, while notable, does not by itself establish a favorite for Saturday. What it does confirm is the full line-up of the match and the most recent in-ring form each woman carries into it. Legend’s clean elimination of Vice in the closing stretch gives her a tangible highlight to point to heading into the bigger stage, while Jayne and Stratton also leave SmackDown with a win on the record books just days before the briefcase is on the line.
No further details on the stipulations, build, or title implications tied to Saturday’s Money in the Bank match were included in the available reporting. WAW will continue to track official confirmations as more information on the card becomes available.
