Sol Ruca Retains WWE Women’s Speed Title After Late Switch To Jaida Parker

Outside interference shaped the five-minute finish, raising fresh questions about Speed’s move away from clean outcomes.

Overview

  • Shawn Michaels announced before No Mercy that Lainey Reid suffered a training injury and was not cleared to challenge for the title.
  • Jaida Parker was revealed at the bell as the replacement challenger for Sol Ruca in the Women’s Speed Championship match.
  • Ruca won with the Sol Snatcher in the closing seconds after distractions involving ZARIA and Lash Legend affected Parker on the outside.
  • Lainey Reid had earned the title shot by defeating Candice LeRae in the tournament final earlier in the week and later appeared backstage in a walking boot.
  • Fightful reported that WWE’s website initially stated Jacy Jayne retained the NXT Women’s Title with help from Lainey Reid before the line was edited, leaving that implication unconfirmed.
