 Rhea Ripley, WWE Women's Tag Team Champion Bianca Belair, Bayley, IYO SKY and Naomi def. Women's World Champion Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax, Tiffany Stratton and Candice LeRae in a WarGames MatchI was adamant coming into this event that women's WarGames did not need to happen this year and that this could've easily been an elimination tag team match instead. I was hopeful they would have a great match regardless, but this ended up being boring early on, sloppy and poorly structured. The effort was there, but it felt like (similar to past years) they relied too heavily on the weapons because there was very little story. Yes, there were several intertwining feuds, but again, it wasn't necessary for this to take place inside the two cages. Ripley hitting Riptide on Morgan through a table for the finish was cool, but this was easily the weakest women's WarGames matchup to date.

 Thunder Rosa def. Harleygram (Harley Cameron)Rosa previously beat Cameron in a Day of the Dead match on Collision earlier this month, but Cameron came in this match wearing a mask pretending she was someone else. It was more dumb fun from Cameron, and while it isn't necessarily my cup of tea and I find it to be terrible television, it seems to be getting over with the AEW faithful. This was another solid match from these two, but I'm just ready to see Rosa do something more meaningful.
 Will Ospreay def. Juice Robinson in a Continental Classic Gold League MatchOspreay and Robinson are far from being on the same level in terms of where they're positioned on the card, but I understand wanting to make Robinson look competitive in defeat because he still has the rest of the Continental Classic to go. Plus, this thing is apparently all about great wrestling, not squashes. This was a nice rebound win for Ospreay following his loss to Kyle Fletcher at Full Gear.
 Drake Morreaux def. Harlem LewisThis was an interesting matchup as both of these guys are relatively new to Level Up and should be working with more established stars in order to improve. Working with each other won't hurt them, but I do question what they'll actually gain. I found this to be a generic, dull bout with neither guy doing much to stand out. Morreaux picks up the win, but can he capitalize on it?
 Rhea Ripley, IYO SKY, WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Bianca Belair, Naomi and Bayley Brawled with WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax, Tiffany Stratton, Candice LeRae, Women's World Champion Liv Morgan and Raquel RodriguezThe babyfaces' mic work was fine, but I actually really liked the rebuttal from the heels with Jax and Morgan bringing up the past issues between Belair and Damage CTRL, Bayley and SKY, and the possibility of Bayley being the one who attacked Jade Cargill to take her spot on the team. The subsequent brawl was what I expected to close out Monday's Raw, so I'm glad we got it here as it was effective final hype for women's WarGames.
