Momo Watanabe won the International Women's Cup at NJPW x AEW Wrestle Dynasty, pinning Athena in a four-way match that also featured Willow Nightingale and Persephone.
Athena seemingly had the match won after hitting the O-Face on Willow, but Thekla, who accompanied Momo to the ring, pulled the referee out of the ring.
Momo hit Athena with a bat and then finished her off with Peach Sunrise.
