Bianca Belair VS Nikki Cross!
Dallas fires up for the RawEST Women’s Champion, and she’s ready for some payback! The Almost SuperHero stopped being a hero and she ran wild on everyone last week, will Nikki be stopped before she gets started? Or will Nikki be a speedbump ahead of Bianca’s Last Woman Standing Match?
The bell rings and Bianca is wary of Nikki. Nikki rushes in, Bianca sends her to a corner and RAMS into her! And again! And again! Nikki hammers Bianca but Bianca lifts her up! Nikki sunset flips but Bianca stays up to drag Nikki up, but Nikki gets around to shove. Bianca runs Nikki over! Bianca says, “You think you crazy?” Things speed up. Bianca handsprings and says kiss this. Fans rally but Nikki shouts at Bianca, “LET’S GO!” Things speed up, Bianca hurdles but Nikki CROSSBODIES! Nikki rains down fists and fans boo, but Bianca gets to a corner. Nikki stomps away on Bianca, lets off as the ref counts, then stands Bianca up.
Nikki RAMS into Bianca at the ropes, then stalks her as she staggers away. Nikki storms up, bumps Bianca off buckles, and again, but then Bianca blocks. Bianca elbows Nikki away and runs her over! And dropkicks her down! Fans fire up as Bianca kips up! Bianca runs in but Nikki BOOTS back! Nikki goes up and leaps, but Bianca catches her! Bianca hits a FALL AWAY SLAM!

Bianca kicks but Nikki CLUBS the bad leg, before she traps Bianca in the apron skirt!
Nikki HAMMERS away, the ref counts, but Nikki lets off just a moment before throwing more forearms! Nikki is fired up but Dallas boos as Raw goes to break.
Raw returns and Bianca snapmares Nikki then gets to a corner. Nikki runs in but Bianca puts her on the apron. Nikki ducks the haymaker to HOTSHOT! Then Nikki speeds things up, only to run into a BACKBREAKER! Bianca scoops and SLAMS Nikki, then scoop SLAMS her again! And again! Fans fire up as Bianca suplexes and holds Nikki up!

But then here come Damage Control’s Iyo Sky & Dakota Kai! The fans boo and the ref tells them to leave since they have nothing to do with this match! But in this distraction, Bayley POSTS Bianca! Nikki CLOBBERS Bayley! Nikki gets in the ring and she DECKS Sky! Kai hurries over to that side but Nikki THRWOS Sky into barriers! Nikki CROSSBODIES Kai! Fans fire up with Nikki now and she gets back in the ring.
Nikki drags Bianca up but Bianca slips around to torture rack! KISS OF DEATH! Cover, Bianca wins!
Winner: Bianca Belair, by pinfall
DMG CTRL tried to do damage to the EST, but she ends up winning! Bayley gets in the ring to fire forearms on Bianca, and then Kai & Sky get in the ring with her. They all stomp Bianca, but ASUKA is back!! AND ALEXA BLISS!! They get in the ring, GERMAN SUPLEX for Kai, DDT for Sky! Bianca fires off on Bayley and then dropkicks her away! Bianca manages another kip up, and Asuka HIP ATTACKS Bayley from the apron! Alexa goes outside to CANNONBALL all of DMG CTRL down! Fans fire up as the Empress and the Five Foot Fury help the EST stand tall! But will Bianca be the Last Woman Standing at Crown Jewel?
Bianca regroups with Alexa and Asuka backstage.
She’s glad to have them back, and then Cathy Kelly walks over to say that both Asuka and Alexa battled back from injuries, but is Bianca finished with Nikki Cross headed into Crown Jewel? Bianca says things are settled for now, but she and Bayley are far from over. Last Woman Standing at Crown Jewel, Bayley talks about pinning Bianca. But come that match, only one of them is walking out. But just because one of them is walking out doesn’t mean Bianca’s going in there alone. Alexa says they’ve been on Bianca’s side since this started, and they’ll be there Saturday. Alexa and Asuka remember the injuries, and they’re not waiting. They’re settling this tonight!
Alexa also knows DMG CTRL is listening, so Iyo, Dakota, they want a Women’s Tag Team Championship match TONIGHT! Asuka says DMG CTRL is NOT ready for Alexa & Asuka!! Will there be new champions here in Dallas?
Raw holds a dual interview with Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar.
At least, that’s what’s supposed to happen. The Beast is still not in his seat. Corey Graves starts with Lashley for his thoughts on the rematch with Lesnar at Crown Jewel. Lashley says he’s not surprised by this. Lesnar’s been ducking him for 20 years now. If they fought 20 years ago, he would’ve exposed Lesnar like he did at the previous Royal Rumble when Lashley beat Lesnar. Or like two weeks ago when Lesnar came at Lashley but got Speared and put through the announce table. At Crown Jewel, it’ll be no different. Lashley will expose Lesnar for who he really is: a Bobby Lashley wannabe.
But wait! Lesnar is going to the ring!! The Beast is all smiles as he waves his cowboy hat to Dallas. Lashley is even less amused than he was a minute ago seeing this. Lesnar gets a mic as Dallas cheers him on, and Lesnar says, “Good evening, Texas! Now Brock Lesnar didn’t come to Texas to have a sit-down interview with Bobby Lashley. When Brock Lesnar visits these good folks in Texas, he wants to do what these folks of Texas would normally do, and that’s to fight! Bobby, you obviously didn’t get the memo. And even if you did, I know you can’t read it. So Bobby, get your ass out here for an ass beating!”
Lashley takes off the lapel mic, rushes off his set, and makes his own way to the stage! Fans fire up as The All Mighty throws off his jacket, and then Lesnar meets him at the ramp! Lesnar TACKLES Lashley, refs rush out as they brawl into the barriers, and now even security, management, and other superstars rush out to stop this! There is already about 30 people trying to stop this, and even TRIPLE H is shouting to keep the peace! HHH warns Lesnar but Lesnar doesn’t even listen! He gets loose and finds Lashley! They just manage to throw hands but then they get pulled apart again! HHH tells everyone else to throw these guys out. If they touch again, their match is OFF!
Fans want to “Let Them Fight!” but we know this has to wait until Saturday! Will anything be left standing when the All Mighty and the Beast Incarnate collide at Crown Jewel?
Seth Rollins VS Austin Theory!
Once upon a time, they were the Messiah of Raw and his disciple, but now they’re nothing more than opponents. The Visionary thinks he’s untouchable, but will the Youngest Mr. Money in the Bank prove he can do it even better than “The King of Cash-Ins?”
The bell rings and Rollins talks old times with Theory. Is Theory sure about this match-up? Theory says yes, but fans sing, “OH~ OHH~ OHHHH~!” Rollins and Theory approach, but then Rollins avoids Theory to hear the fans cheer. Rollins makes sure Theory hears Dallas loud and clear. Fans chant for “SETH! SETH! SETH!” and he ties up with Theory. Theory pulls hair, puts Rollins in the corner, but lets off at the ref’s count. Rollins avoids the chop and CHOPS Theory! Theory snarls but Rollins conducts the fans. Theory mocks it, but Rollins blocks his kick! Rollins taunts Theory, spins to sweep the leg and cover, ONE!
Rollins headlocks and laughs but Theory fights up and out. Theory hurdles, but Rollins turns his back drop into underhooks! Theory escapes the Pedigree and the ring and fans boo, but Rollins goes out after Theory. They go around, Rollins avoids the elbow drop and fans laugh at Theory. Theory is upset, he chases Rollins now, and then Theory avoids the elbow drop, except Rollins never dropped one! Rollins WRECKS Theory with a dropkick! Fans cheer as Theory staggers and flops! Rollins goes out to CHOP Theory against the barriers! And then Rollins brings Theory around to hang him out to dry! The front row cheers as Rollins goes to the desk!
Rollins hops up, leaps, FLYING KNEE! Down goes Theory and Dallas high-fives Rollins. Rollins drags Theory up, puts him in the ring, and then shoulders in. Rollins jumps but Theory trips him up! Rollins tumbles to the floor, Theory goes out after him, FLAPJACK to the desk! Fans chant “Theory Sucks!” but he RAMS Rollins into steel steps! Rollins writhe and Theory shouts, “I’m on top! ALL DAY!” as Raw goes to break.
Raw returns and Rollins throws body shots and a CHOP! And another CHOP! Rollins whips, Theory reverses and clotheslines in a corner! Theory then scoops to FALL AWAY SLAM! Cover, TWO! Fans rally up but Theory smirks. Theory talks trash on Rollins, “I’M the future now!” Theory throws a haymaker but Rollins snarls as he gets up. Theory throws another and now Rollins is seething! Rollins counter punches, and again! Theory throws haymakers, Rollins CHOPS! Theory CHOPS, Rollins ROCKS! Theory, Rollins, and then Rollins gets the edge! Fans fire up with the flurry, and Rollins SOBATS to KICK and run! Into an ELBOW!
Theory runs, but Rollins kitchen sink knees! Rollins fakes Theory out and clotheslines Theory out of the ring! Fans fire up and sing again, “OH~ OHH~ OHHHH~!” Rollins DIVES and takes out Theory! Rollins hurries back in, he builds speed again, and he DIVES! Another direct hit at the ramp! Fans continue to sing and Rollins is feeling it! Rollins builds speed again but he has to doge Theory! Theory elbows Rollins, fisherman’s a leg, but Rollins turns things around to FALCON ARROW! Cover, TWO! Fans fire up while both men are down, and Rollins sits up first. “This is Awesome!” “OH~ OHH~ OHHH~!” Rollins runs in but Theory avoids the stomp!
Theory is in a corner, he puts Rollins on the corner but Rollins HEADBUTTS back! And FLYING KNEES! And SUPERKICKS! Cover, TWO!! Theory is still in this but Rollins grins. Rollins says Theory can give up, it’s okay. Theory slowly rises, Rollins kicks him, reels him in and underhooks the arms! But Theory back drops! Rollins sunset flips but Theory sits on it! TWO and Rollins sunsets! TWO, Theory pushes to stack, TWO! Rollins has the sunset again, TWO! Theory has a cradle! TWO and Rollins has a ghost pin! TWO, ROLLING ELBOW from Theory! Into AOI SHODOU! Cover, TWO!! Rollins survives and fans are thunderous!
Theory is frustrated, he stands up and he watches Rollins stand. Theory fireman’s carries but Rollins slips free. Shove, but Theory blocks the superkick! But the DRAGON WHIP comes around! But Theory comes back, SOMERSAULT BLOCKBUSTER! Cover, TWO!! Theory is furious but Dallas is loving this! Fans rally behind Rollins but Theory says it’s time to go down! Theory fireman’s carries, but Rollins fights with elbows! Theory drops to a knee, but he lifts Rollins again! Rollins throws even more elbows and Theory falls! Rollins runs, but Theory fireman’s carries! Rollins slips off to ROLLING ELBOW! Then turn, DREAM-
NO, Theory ducks the elbow to SUPERKICK! And he CLOBBERS Rollins with a forearm! Both men are down and fans fire up again! Theory snarls and gets himself to the ropes. Fans rally as he goes over to Rollins and says, “King of the Cash-In? I’M the King! You wanna see why? I’m about to show you!” Theory reels Rollins in and underhooks the arms! Fans boo, but Rollins FLAPJACKS the Pedigree, into the CURB STOMP!! Cover, Rollins wins!
Winner: Seth Rollins, by pinfall
Gold belt, gold tights, and even gold in his hair, the Visionary shines through! But will someone come for that US Championship soon enough?
Roman Reigns arrives!
He and Paul Heyman pull in backstage, and they alone head to gorilla. No Bloodline with him, will the Tribal Chief take care of business all by himself?
BREAKING NEWS for Crown Jewel!
Bray Wyatt is back and he’s making the trip! But what will happen when this new form of Bray takes Crown Jewel down the rabbit hole?
Roman Reigns heads to the ring!
Dallas is already raising the fingers as The Tribal Chief raises the titles for the pyro. Roman then continues to the ring, and he raises the belts again for more pyro. Fans chant, “UCEY! UCEY!” in reference to everything that happened on Friday. Roman smiles, and then Heyman hands over the mic for Roman to say, “Dallas, Texas! ACKNOWLEDGE ME!” Fans cheer and put up the ones again. And then “UCEY! UCEY!” returns. Roman says,
“Don’t worry, I got Sami and Jey out there in the world, working on becoming a little more Ucey. So by the time we’re done in Saudi Arabia, you should be seeing a new man. An Ucey Right Hand Man, Jey Uso.”
Roman says enough about that, though. Let’s be real right quick. “For over two years now, I’ve been hyping opponents. And the only thing that happens is we get to the match and they get smashed! And I don’t want y’all to think I’m dishonest. I’m not up here lying to you, no. So, I had to think about this, and… Let’s be honest: I’m the greatest of all time.” Fans cheer that, and Roman says he’s going up against a guy who has had two matches! “So there’s no way that I’m gonna sit up here and I’m gonna hype up a match with an outsider like Logan Paul.” The Tribal Chief will not do that. But the Wise Man will!
Heyman gets the mic back and he feels the pressure. “Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman. And as the Special Counsel and the Wise Man to the Tribal Chief, the GOAT, the Greatest of All Time, the Undisputed WWE Universal Heavyweight Champion, Roman… Reigns…! Well, it’s incumbent upon me to at least mention the fact that Logan Paul has these steel screws inserted into the hand that he is determined to throw that ‘one lucky punch’ with. And that Logan Paul has been training with HBK, Shawn Michaels. And yet, with all this on Logan Paul’s side, this Saturday at Crown Jewel, he’s gonna get SMASHED by the Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns!
“Because if there’s one thing in this world on the Island of Relevancy that Roman Reigns cannot tolerate, is an outsider. So, this Saturday-” The Miz is showing up? The Hollywood A-Lister struts his way to the ring with a smirk on his face and both Roman and Heyman are confused. Miz has a mic to say, “First and foremost, my Tribal Chief, I acknowledge you.,” A good start. Miz says he’s not here to antagonize but to help. No one knows Logan Paul better than Miz. Miz brought Logan Paul into the EWWE, trained him, taught him everything he knows in the ring, but there is one thing he couldn’t teach. That right hand is real.
Those steel pins in his hand give Logan Paul real knockout power. If you don’t believe Miz, ask Jey! Jey got knocked out! Miz is just sorry that he couldn’t show up quicker. Being a celebrity superstar philanthropist, he has been having to deal with a deranged stalker. But Roman, maybe they can help each other. Miz knows Logan Paul’s strengths and weaknesses. So maybe Roman helps with He Who Shall Not Be Named before Miz’s match with Mustafa Ali and Miz will help Roman neutralize Logan Paul. Roman takes the mic from Heyman back, and Roman says, “You’re just trying to cut a deal? Like, I scratch your back, you scratch mine?”
That’s not so bad. Roman is up for that. But before getting to the deal, Roman wants to ask Miz a question. Absolutely, Tribal Chief! This is your ring. Heyman says it is! Roman’s starting to like Miz. But then, why does everyone keep talking about Logan Paul knocking Roman out? SUPERMAN PUNCH for Miz! “When they should be talking about me knocking Logan Paul out? And then you’re not going to have any other choice but to ACKNOWLEDGE ME!” The Tribal Chief proves his fist is just as dangerous without steel pins. Will Roman prove this is HIS WWE? Or will Logan Paul just need luck on his side?
Miz is backstage in the trainer’s room.
He has an icepack on his jaw, and Cathy Kelly walks in to ask him about it. Miz says not now, he’ sin a lot of pain. But she just wanted to be sure that he knew Johnny Gargano sat down with Byron Saxton for an exclusive tell-all for later tonight. Miz says he honestly hasn’t thought about it, because he’s more concerned about getting his match with Ali cancelled for tonight. Also, all Gargano has is gotcha journalism, and Cathy should know that a story should never air or be publicized until it is verified by multiple and legitimate sources. Gargano’s source doesn’t even speak!
If the WWE airs this slanderous puff piece, then Miz will have no choice but to file a defamation suit that’ll make Johnny Depp and Amber Heard wince. But Ali walks in and says that is unfortunate. Ali was really looking forward to competing tonight. Everything is bigger in Texas! Well, almost everything. Don’t you dare. What? Don’t you dare…! What? OH! No, he wasn’t gonna say Miz has tiny balls! Miz vows to beat Ali, even with a broken jaw! Ali looks forward to it. Will this prove to Miz he needs to learn to keep his mouth shut?
Damian Priest w/ The Judgement Day VS Karl Anderson w/ The OC!
The Punisher takes his turn tonight, and of course the rest of his “family” are ringside. But will all the Machine Gun need to win is his Good Brothers watching his back?
The bell rings, Priest rushes in but Karl dodges to ROCK and UPPERCUT! But Priest TOSSES Karl to a corner! Karl dodges to CHOP, ROCK and ROCK Priest again. Karl whips, Priest reverses and ELBOWS Karl down! The Judgement Day cheers and Priest stands Karl up to ROCK him with a right. Priest whips, Karl KICKS back, then Karl runs in to clothesline Priest out of the ring! Priest lands on his feet, he drags Karl out, but Karl POSTS Priest! Karl claps at Judgement Day and he tells Dominik to watch himself. Dom says he wouldn’t, but then creeps up! Karl DECKS Dom, but Priest BOOTS Karl down! Fans boo and Priest dares Styles to do something while Raw goes to break.
Raw returns and Priest has Karl with a motorcycle stretch. Karl fights up, throws hands, but Priest knees low. Karl throws more forearms, but Priest BELL CLAPS! And ROLLING ELBOWS! Karl staggers to a corner, Priest runs in to jumping back elbow! Priest then hits the BROKEN ARROW! Cover, TWO! Rhea argues the count but Priest taunts Karl that he wants more pain. Priest KICKS Karl, drags him up, and says, “This is where you’re gonna learn.” But Karl hits a JAWBREAKER! Priest staggers, runs in but gets a BOOT! Karl dodges the elbow to JUMP KICK! Priest staggers, Karl CHOPS! And ROCKS! And UPPERCUTS!
Priest choke grips but Karl slips free! Mule kick! Karl dodges the boot to run and run Priest over! Karl runs to SENTON! Fans fire up with Karl and he whips. Priest reveres but Karl ducks and hits a SPINEBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Judgement Day coaches Priest but Karl goes up the corner! Fans fire up but Rhea distracts from the apron. The ref reprimands, Karl leaps, but into Priest’s arms! COMPLETE SHOT! Priest grins and the Judgement Day fires up while fans boo. Priest roars, drags Karl up, but Karl slips through to backslide! KARL WINS!
Winner: Karl Anderson
But the Judgement Day attack! The OC get in the ring, it is a wild brawl! Finn sends Karl out but Styles and Gallows have Dom and Priest! Finn stomps Karl, Dom wants mercy from Big LG, but Rhea LOW BLOWS him! Fans boo as the Eradicator defends Dom. But then Rhea dares Karl and Styles to fight her! She doesn’t give a damn! But then Priest and Finn attack Karl and Styles! Rhea smirks as she continues to be an indefensible X-factor. She feeds Styles to Priest for the RAZOR’S EDGE! Finn goes up and he aims at Karl as Dom stretches Karl out! COUP DE GRACE!! The Judgement Day then set Styles up for Dom as he climbs up!
Fans boo but Dom gives us some Latino Heat! FROG SPLASH!! The OC is down, but will they find a way to get back up at Crown Jewel?
MVP speaks.
“Braun Strowman, Friday night on SmackDown, you said that there is no giant in the world big enough for the Monster of All Monsters. And I thought when you said that, that perhaps when the Nigerian Giant tossed you out of the ring, perhaps you landed on your head. I’m gonna shoot straight with you: you can flip over all the trucks and snatch off all the car doors that you want, but you will never, ever, measure up to the 7’3″, 403 lbs. Nigerian Giant, Omos. You need to get that through your Neanderthal like skull. Because once and for all, you will find out Saturday at Crown Jewel.
“Or, perhaps, you’ll find out a little sooner. Because I’m coming to SmackDown on Friday, and I’ve arranged a little surprise for you.” Maxwell Vontavius Porter chuckles, will that surprise be anything but little?
JBL heads to the ring!
John Bradshaw Layfield is in Dallas and Dallas is happy to see him! But will JBL be in better spirits being in Texas? We’ll find out, after the break.
Raw returns and JBL says it is so good to be home in the Lonestar State of God Bless Texas! December 29th, 1845, “the rest of the colonies were allowed by Texas to join us, and the United States was formed with Texas at the center. You are welcome, America. And since before that time, Texas has always been defined by its legends. The whole state chanting for the Tyler Rose, yelling, ‘Run, Earl, Run!’ To the boy from Alvin, Texas throwing 100 mile per hour heat, telling Ron Ventura, ‘You’re welcome to come out here to join me.'” Stalback to Aikman to HOW ‘BOUT THEM COWBOYS?! The Von Ericks to STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN!
“The greatness of Texas has been immeasurable, until you Snowflakes came along and ruined it. You Gen Z’ers, Millennials, and all you people who have enabled them have turned Texas into an embarrassment. I mean, today’s your day, right? Halloween? Where you teach your young children to go door to door begging for food. That is exactly what this young, entitled, lazy, safe-space-seeking generation does NOT need. So from a Texas legend, I wanna tell you that not one of you, not a single one, should be allowed to call yourselves a Texan. You disgust me.” Fans boo JBL, but JBL says he’ll still introduce greatness to this state!
JBL says this is the man who will save this business! So get up on your snowflake feet and clap your chubby hands to welcome the MODERN DAY WRESTLING GOD, BARON! CORBIN!! Corbin makes his way out, in the craziest looking tracksuit, and he leaves fans hanging on the high-fives. Are those tigers and flowers on that outfit? Corbin has the mic to say, “Ladies and gentlemen, you are welcome. Look, I know it made every single one of your nights to be in the presence of a Modern Day Wrestling God. You sit out there and you look up at me and go, ‘Man, that guy’s got it all.’ Let me tell you, you are right, I have it all. And all of you have very, very little.”
Corbin is here to say thanks from the bottom of his heart that the fans scraped together their last few dollars to get a ticket to see Corbin in the flesh tonight. JBL applauds but fans boo. Corbin knows it wasn’t easy. They probably had to put in an extra few hours at the factory, or whatever farm they work at, but that just shows Corbin how much they truly, truly love him. Fans boo even more, but Corbin says that’s just to look cool. He knows it’s hard to admit, but they all know the truth. And the truth is- R-TRUTH! Fans fire up as Truth gallops to the ring as a cowboy! Truth joins JBL and Corbin and he pets his little pony.
JBL says, “Hey! Buffoon! What’re you doing? You look ridiculous.” Truth says he just wanted to come out here to wish Dallas a Happy Halloween! But he especially wants to come out here and tell JBL & Corbin that he really, really, really really really really… likes their costumes. JBL says they’re not in costumes, “you idiot.” Oh, those are definitely costumes. JBL is like a mean, hostile, steaming mad, angry angry angry, outta touch old man. And Corbin, well, he’s just the world’s biggest- Corbin swings on Truth! Truth dodges and throws haymakers back! Corbin shoves Truth but gets a CALF KICK for it! And a low kick! But then JBL SMACKS Truth!
JBL and Truth argue and Corbin BLINDSIDES Truth! END OF DAYS! Fans boo but JBL shouts, “Good night!” JBL and Corbin laugh at Truth, but will someone come along and humble these so-called wrestling gods?
Damage Control talks with Nikki Cross backstage.
Bayley is trying to tell Nikki something but Nikki seems to be in her own little world. Nikki then glares at Bayley, before storming off. Is Bayley trying to get Nikki on her side?
Trick or Street Fight: Matt Riddle w/ Elias VS Otis w/ Chad Gable!
Bro, the Original Bro was just trying to be a good bro to the Drifter, and the Alpha Academy had to go and harsh their buzz. But Riddle did come to Elias’ aid when he needed it, so Elias is willing to return the favor. Riddle is dressed as Ezekiel to honor Zeke, but will Riddle be able to #ZekeOut? Or will Gable’s number one guy SHOOOOSH him?
Speaking of, Gable shouts, “SHOOOOOSH! Shoosh, please! Sure, I could’ve dressed up like Socrates or any great philosopher tonight, and it would’ve made perfect sense. But then I realized no one here would’ve got the joke, because I’m in front of a bunch of Dallas dimwits! Lucky for you, Halloween’s my favorite holiday, so I’m gonna make it easy for you. I dressed up as a personal hero, a modern day Hercules, Patrick Swayze himself, as the legendary dancer, Chip! A THANK YEW~! And allow me to introduce my luxurious partner, a man who’s gonna do some dirty dancing all over Mr. Matt Riddle, DALE~!”
Otis walks out, and together, the Academy reveals they’re shirtless! They strut, flex, and swivel all the way to the ring. No one is sure what to make of this, but will the tree trunk take all the treats for himself tonight? The bell rings and Riddle runs in, but Otis scoops! Riddle slips off, baits Otis to a corner and POSTS him into a SKELETON! Riddle goes up and out and PENALTY KICKS Gable! Then he FLOATING BRO ATTACKS The Academy! Fans fire up and Elias high-fives Riddle as Raw goes to break.
Raw returns and Otis has Riddle in a head vice! And looking around the ring, we missed a lot of madness during the break. Riddle endures, fights up, and he throws body shots. Otis knees low, CLUBS him, but Riddle counter punches! And again! And then he fires off palm strikes and KICKS! Otis blocks one but gets a KNEE in return! Riddle runs to forearm smash! He goes side to side to forearm smash again! Riddle goes the other way, but Otis CLOBBERS him! Gable cheers as Otis thrusts those hips. Otis puts Riddle in a corner, then clears some space. Otis runs in to SPLASH! Riddle drops and Gable signals to Otis.
Fans chant “We Want Tables!” but Gable says one night only and tonight is that night! Otis fires up, he does the CATERPILLAR! And the ELBOW! Otis drags Riddle up, scoops him, and pops him up but Riddle slips free! Riddle dodges, and Otis POSTS himself into a chair!! Elias throws a candy corn kendo stick to Riddle and Riddle SMACKS away on Otis! Fans fire up with Riddle and he pounds the mat! Riddle is hearing those voices, bro! But Gable CLOBBERS Riddle from the apron! “A THANK YEW~!” But then Elias KNEES Gable off the apron, and he falls through a table! Riddle leaps at Otis, but into a WORLD’S STRONGEST SLAM!
Otis snarls and goes to the corner. Otis climbs up, shimmies and shakes, and DOZER BOMBSÂ onto nothing! Riddle dodges in time, and then Elias puts a pumpkin on Otis’ head! RKOÂ with the pumpkin!! Cover, Riddle wins!
Winner: Matt Riddle, by pinfall
The Academy got wrecked tonight as the Bro and the Drifter combine forces! Will things be much sweeter for them from now on?
Damage Control talks backstage.
Kai is flipping out a bit about why this is happening! Why are Asuka & Alexa getting a title match when all they did was scream about how Kai & Sky aren’t ready? They’re just lucky DMG CTRL doesn’t back down from a challenge! The real question is: will Asuka & Alexa be able to compete after all the damage Kai & Sky inflict upon them? Sky says, “We are going to embarrass Asuka and Alexa!” Bayley agrees, and she will embarrass Bianca this Saturday. But they can’t get riled up like this. Sky has done way too much in her career to be overlooked, and Kai has been left behind too many times for anyone to think they can walk all over her.
Bayley vows that DMG CTRL will take over this division! Saturday, Bayley beats Bianca, and tonight, Kai & Sky beat Asuka & Alexa, and they will be the last women standing by this time next week. Kai calms down, will she and the Evil Genius deny the Empress and Lil’ Miss Bliss their thrones?
The Miz VS Mustafa Ali!
The Most Must-See Superstar was just trying to help the Head of the Table, but he got rejected pretty hard. Will Miz recover from his supposedly broken jaw and take a win? Or will The Beacon simply use Miz’s spotlight to get the opportunities he is fighting for?
Raw returns and Ali makes his entrance. The bell rings, Ali and Miz circle, and fans taunt Miz over his “TINY BALLS!” Miz is annoyed, but he ties up with Ali. Ali headlocks but Miz powers out and complains about the bad jaw. Ali says he barely squeezed. They tie up and Miz puts Ali in a corner. Ali dodges the cheap shot, but then Miz covers up! Ali is annoyed, this is a match! Fans boo, Miz runs in but Ali dodges. Miz narrowly avoids a roundhouse and scrambles to a corner. Ali storms up but Miz yanks him into the buckles! Miz stomps a mudhole in, then mocks Ali now. Miz whips Ali corner to corner hard and Ali drops to his knees.
Ali crawls to another corner and Miz storms up. Miz fishhooks Ali’s face, whips him corner to corner, but Ali goes up and over! Things speed up, Ali ducks ‘n ‘dodges, flips through the hip toss, and then Miz covers up! Ali rolls Miz, TWO! Ali atomic drops, mocks the tiny balls, and then CHOPS! And CHOPS! Ali whips corner to corner, Miz reverses but Ali slips out to slingshot in and NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Miz writhes but Ali hurries to the corner! Ali climbs, fans rally, but Miz moves! Ali bails out of the 450 but runs into a BOOT! Ali is dazed and Miz rips his shirt to show off his muscles!
Fans boo as Miz stalks Ali and fishhooks Ali’s face. Miz then RAMS Ali into the buckles face first! The ref checks Ali while Miz snarls and Raw goes to break.
Raw returns and Miz shakes his head while Ali slowly sits up. Miz KICKS Ali, but Ali sits up again. Miz KICKS, Ali sits up, and Miz KICKS again! And again! And again! And again, again, again, again! Miz powers up and fans boo, but Ali ducks the Buzzsaw to BACKSTABBER! Fans rally up while both men are down, and Ali stands to CHOP! And CHOP! And CHOP! Ali whips, Miz reverses to knee low! Miz suplexes but Ali slips out to O’Conner- NO, Miz bucks that to kick the legs out! BASEMENT DDT! Cover, TWO! Fans boo while Miz seethes. Miz stalks Ali and full nelson, but Ali victory rolls! TWO!
Ali runs, tilt-o-whirls and DDTs!! Miz is down but he flounders out of the ring! Fans boo as Ali misses a chance. But Ali heads up top to SUPER CROSSBODY! Direct hit and fans fire up! Ali huffs and puffs and he brings Miz up. The ring count starts, and Miz SHOVES Ali over the desk! Miz then clears off the desk and he drags Ali up! The count is past 5 of 10 as Miz TOSSES Ali over the desk the other way! But then LUMIS grabs Miz from the crowd!! Miz scrambles free and hurries into the ring! Lumis runs away and security chases after! Miz is still shocked, but he turns around into a SUPERKICK from Ali!
Miz is down, Ali hurries up top! Fans fire up for Ali’s 450 SPLASH! Cover, Ali wins!
Winner: Mustafa Ali, by pinfall
Miz can’t blame the bad jaw, but he can blame Lumis for going after him! Will Johnny Gargano’s tell-all finally explain just what is going on here? As for Ali, he gets a great win, will he head for bigger and better soon enough?
WWE Investigates: The True Story of Dexter Lumis & The Miz.
Byron Saxton says that over the past few months, Lumis has stalked Miz “with a series of mental and physical attacks. But recently, someone has come forward claiming to have a bombshell regarding this explosive situation. his name is Johnny Gargano. He was a close friend of Lumis’ at NXT, and now he is a whistleblower with an inside scoop.” Byron sat down with Gargano to uncover what Gargano calls, “The truth.”
“Who is Dexter Lumis?” Gargano says that is a very layered question. Gargano’s known Lumis for years. Lumis has his quirks, like everyone, but Lumis is just a guy trying to make a living. Lumis married into Gargano’s NXT family, so Gargano had to accept him like a son-in-law. Or maybe a pet racoon. One in the same. But after the wedding, the family fell apart. How so? Lumis lost his job and fell on hard times. Gargano made a rather goofy reenactment all by himself, and notes that the firing took a toll on Lumis’ psyche. And in typical fashion, Miz took advantage. In what way? The struggling artist was given an opportunity, by a predator.
Gargano says Miz may not know this, but it’s time to get the truth out there! The whole truth! It was on the night of Gargano’s surprise return to the WWE in Toronto, 8/22/22. Just before Gargano went out there to hear the fans, he overheard Miz and Lumis talking. And since it’s 2022, Gargano recorded it on his phone. Take a listen. Miz told Lumis that he was a little snug with that sleeper, but this is working. People are buying it. Then Miz paid Lumis half of what he promised, and said he’d give Lumis the other half when this is done. Lumis was quiet, of course, but Miz said, “Don’t look at me like that. Take the money and keep your mouth shut. Oh yeah, that shouldn’t be an issue. Am I right? HAHAHA!”
So this has been some kind of arrangement? Gargano says Lumis was being paid to stage these “attacks!” But why would the Miz do this? Why? Because he thinks he’s a celebrity! And celebrities want attention, they fake stories and call the Paparazzi on themselves all the time! Miz wanted a stalker story and exploited Lumis! This is disgusting and vile! These are rather serious accusations Gargano is making. Gargano knows that, but look at the footage. The first time we saw Lumis on Raw, Miz glances and sees Lumis, but there were no physical altercations. And when Lumis dragged Miz away during that tag match, Miz practically walked out with him!
But what about the altercations during the United States Championship Cage Match, in which Lumis put Miz to sleep? Gargano knew Byron would ask that. But what better way to play the victim than to orchestrate your own downfall? Miz was never gonna beat Lashley anyway! So Miz found a painful way to keep blame off himself. Smart. But then why did Miz attack Lumis with a chair? Okay, Gargano can’t prove this one, but his theory is that somewhere along the way, Miz stopped paying. Miz lost control, and now Lumis is coming Miz after him to get what he’s owed. Byron says this is a shocking development. He thanks Gargano for his time. Is it true? Is this a scam gone sideways?

Dallas is thunderous as the Empresses of Bliss DETHRONE Damage Control! There’s even pyro to celebrate! DMG CTRL is without any gold now, will Bayley turn that around when she and Bianca have their biggEST showdown yet?
My Thoughts:
A great go-home Raw here, and such great advancement for just about everything. Great opening with Bianca VS Nikki, and we’re definitely getting to see the Nikki of old in her moveset. And getting a women’s tag title match out of nowhere was a great surprise, and Alexa & Asuka winning was an awesome surprise. I didn’t see that happening, but that made for a great closing moment. And after that great Bayley2Belly through tables, Bayley technically has the momentum, but I don’t know how or if this will affect the go-home math. It’d be fitting that with Kai & Sky losing the tag titles, Bayley takes the Raw Women’s title so that they have something. And then maybe Survivor Series: WarGames, they use the WarGames 3v3 to do Winners Take All.
I really like how they played the segment with Lashley and Lesnar. First, they say “face to face,” but then give us a sit-down interview with them in separate locations. But then, because Lesnar is Lesnar, he dares Lashley to meet him in person, and then that turns into a brawl with a HUGE flood of security and superstars. Also, Von Wagner was among them, so maybe he’s getting a call-up on the way to Survivor Series? Lesnar VS Lashley can still go either way, but honestly, I feel like this should be Lashley’s legit, undeniable win, because where does Lesnar even go? He lost to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, and at SummerSlam, and I don’t think HHH will default to that rivalry the way Vince always did.
Rollins VS Theory was a rather surprising match-up, but a great one. Rollins wins, of course, and there’s not title match for Crown Jewel, so maybe we’re just waiting on Survivor Series giving us either a Triple Threat for the title, Rollins VS Theory VS Ali, or Champion VS Champion, Rollins VS Gunther. And I shouldn’t have been surprised that JBL couldn’t help but be a Heel, even to his favorite state. R-Truth is apparently Beetlejuice, where if you say his name, he’ll appear. Truth would make for a great feud with Corbin, because he is always hilarious and can still go in the ring. And of course MVP calls out Braun again, but I feel like that “surprise” is just Omos.
Bray going to Crown Jewel is a surprise. But I wonder if that means the first big development in his story happens there. Maybe Uncle Howdy appears in person to confront Bray on what is the truth about this new persona. We got a great Trick or Street Fight, though I think the fun stuff all happened during break so that only Dallas got to see it. But in the end, Riddle winning makes sense, as this story is really going to be about Riddle and Elias. Elias didn’t turn on Riddle here because he doesn’t like the Alpha Academy either, but there’s going to come a point where Elias loses his cool on Riddle and they end up feuding.
Great promo from Roman and Heyman to bury Logan Paul, and nice crossover with The Miz and his story. Miz offended Roman by validating the threat that is Logan Paul’s right hand, got a right hand in return, and then lost to Ali in a really good match before having the truth exposed by Gargano. “WWE Investigates” being created out of nowhere and treated as if it’s always been here is really weird, but I do like the plot twist that up until a certain point, Lumis stalking Miz was just for show. Now the match between Miz and Lumis can be both for a WWE contract and whatever amount of money Lumis is owed. And we can still get Indi Hartwell and Maryse involved since this is about their husbands (Indi’s in kayfabe, Maryse’s in real-life).
Judgement Day and The OC had a really good match, but I was surprised that Karl had another match. I would’ve thought this would be Gallows VS Priest but I guess then Karl wouldn’t get a great win out of this. The beatdown was as expected, though. The Six Man Tag is going to be a lot of fun, but I have no idea if we see a superstar like Tamina or Dana Brooke help the OC, or if we see Edge & Beth show up to also set up a Mixed Tag with Rhea & Dom. Either would be fine, but the idea is, I wouldn’t expect Beth to show up without Edge. They’re husband and wife, they’re a package deal in this story after what happened at Extreme Rules.
My Score: 8.8/10

PLAY BY PLAY
Tony Schiavone is in the ring!
He welcomes the fans both in Chicago and around the world to the show, and then introduces the NEW AEW World Champion, Hangman Adam Page! The fans fire up as The Cowboy makes his way out here, once again wearing the title around his waist. For that matter, it is the first time anyone has worn this belt since Jon Moxley shoved it in that briefcase. Hangman hobbles to the ring, still feeling the damage from that brutal Texas Deathmatch. Hangman joins Schiavone while the fans chant “Cowboy S*it!” Hangman and Schiavone shake hands, and the fans cheer as the mic is handed over to the champ.
The fans cheer Hangman on, and even chant, “You Deserve It!” Hangman takes a moment before saying, “Y’know, I do think when you say that, that some of you might’ve missed the point. And I think that there’s something more important than that that needs to said. Not from you to me but from me to you. Because the truth is, that YOU deserve it!” The fans cheer that! They even chant, “We Deserve It!” Hangman says, “For all of you here tonight, and for all of you who were at All In: Texas, and all of you who watch us at home every single week, you are the ones! You are the ones who needed and demanded a better wrestler, a fully realized professional wrestler!
“You are the ones who supported a grassroots do-it-yourself approach to pro-wrestling. And you all are the ones that started a revolution to change the world! You all are the reason that we are here! You all are the reasons for All Elite Wrestling!” The fans cheer “A E DUB! A E DUB!” Hangman continues by saying he wants us to know that as we watch them every week, scratching, clawing and dreaming of a moment like Hangman has tonight, just know that they don’t do it just for the world title. In actuality, they do it all for the fans. The fans cheer, and chant, “Thank You, Hangman! Thank You, Hangman!”
Hangman says that the fans do deserve this. They deserve to see this championship! They deserve to have someone hold it and carry it and who understands that connection, and someone who has more gratitude for all of them than they can ever know. The fans cheer that, too! Hangman says on Saturday, All In, Texas Death, Hangman didn’t just walk into a battle, he walked into a war. There have been hundreds of battles all around Hangman to free this title from Jon Moxley. And some of the people who fought in that war have not come out of it the same. Hangman must say thank you to them not just for Saturday, but for all if it.
Thank you, Orange Cassidy. The fans cheer “Freshly Squeezed!” Thank you, Jay White. Thank you, Adam Copeland! Thank you to The Opps, from Shibata to Hobbs to Samoa Joe. Thank you to Bryan Danielson, “YES! YES! YES!” And thank you to Darby Allin. Hangman also needs to say thanks to someone who reminded him why he loves pro-wrestling and made him excited for AEW’s future. Someone who did not get to walk out of All In on his own volition, who paid the price. Thank you, Will Ospreay. “BRUV! BRUV! BRUV!” Hangman is hesitant, but the fans know who’s left for last. “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!”
Hangman says if he is going to be the champion and the man he says he is, then he does have to say this. Hangman doesn’t know whether he helped for himself or for AEW, or for one small moment, he decided to help for Hangman… But he will say to Swerve Strickland, thank you. The fans cheer that! Hangman says All In was a roller coaster, and he is not ashamed to saying in addition to buckets of blood, he shed tears. And there are people like Jon Moxley who would say that makes Hangman weak. They’d say that makes Hangman less of a man. The fans boo that, but Hangman says look at him.
Hangman has a wife and two kids who love him. He has thousands, MILLIONS, of people watching AEW who look to him and respect him! And if you wanna know what kind of man Hangman is, look at him now! He is the champion of the EFFIN’ WORLD!! The fans are thunderous for that! Hangman makes sure everyone gets to see the belt around his waist, but he has to quickly turn around for another battle. Will Hangman, Hobbs & Briscoe be able to bring down the Death Riders once and for all? Or will the Maniac have his revenge?
The Young Bucks arrive.
No limousine, they got a Nissan to drop them off. No more EVP status, Matt & Nick Jackson have to learn how to be regular people again! But will they vent some frustrations tonight as they get right back into action?
Kyle Fletcher VS Mascara Dorada!
Speaking of frustrations, The Protostar fell short of the TNT Championship. Adam Cole is down with injury, and what was to be 1v1 become a Fatal 4 Way, allowing Dustin Rhodes to take the title. Will Fletcher destroy Dorada as a message to The Natural? Or will the Aussie Arrow once again miss the mark?

The Toxic Rockstar still has the spotlight!
The NXT Women’s Championship is still Jacy Jayne’s thanks to BLAKE MONROE! What will Jacy have to say about her reign continuing on?
OFFICIAL RESULTS
- Six Man Tag: Trick Williams, Joe Hendry & Mike Santana VS Dark State; Dark State wins, by disqualification.
- WWE Evolve Women’s Championship: Kali Armstrong VS Karmen Petrovic; Kali wins by disqualification and retains the title.
- Family Business Triple Threat: Tony D’Angelo VS Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo VS Luca Crusifino; Tony wins.
- Six Woman Tag: Masha Slamovich & ZaRuca VS The Fatal Influence; Masha & ZaRuca win.
PLAY BY PLAY
The Fatal Influence is here!
And sadly, Jacy Jayne is still NXT Women’s Champion as she leads Fallon Henley & Jazmyn Nyx to the ring. Ironically, it isn’t even because of Fallon & Jazmyn this time, it was because Blake Monroe betrayed Jordynne Grace! Seems like a pattern when it comes to The Glamour, IYKYK. But The Influence get the mics anyway, and Jacy says, “Everyone please excuse my voice tonight. Jordynne Grace elbowed me in the throat and damaged my vocal chords.” The fans cheer that! Even so, Jacy continues by saying on to bigger and better. They’ll get the elephant in the room out of the way.
On Saturday, at the Great American Bash, things did not go her way. And that is because certain members of Fatal Influence dropped the ball. Jacy looks right at Fallon & Jazmyn as she says that. Then she says that she knows Jazmyn tried her best, but sometimes your best just isn’t good enough when you’re standing next to someone like Jacy. Luckily for Fallon & Jazmyn, they redeemed themselves at Evolution, where the best women wrestlers in the world took center stage. And Jacy did what she does best, and that’s shock each and every one of the fans. Fallon says the looks on the faces in State Farm Arena were priceless
All they’re wondering now is, when is the shock gonna wear off? Because Jacy is going to be champion for a very, very long time. And Jacy will continue to do what no one thought she could, or one one has ever done before. Like this Sunday, TNA Slammiversary, when Jacy goes 1v1 with Masha Slamovich. That’s right! Champion VS Champion, Winner Takes All! And Jacy will give it to Masha, she is great with that no nonsense, no brains attitude. But Jacy will be the one to walk out of New York with both championships! But wait! Masha is HERE! The fans fire up as Masha goes to the ring and has a mic of her own.
Masha tells Jacy, “The only reason that you’re still holding that NXT Women’s Championship is because Blake Monroe smashed Jordynne Grace in the back with that title. You lost on Saturday, and at Evolution, it took FOUR of you to win. So on Sunday, I’m gonna shock the entire world of Women’s Pro-wrestling when I become the first TNA wrestler to hold that NXT Women’s Championship!” The fans cheer that, but Jacy promises Masha that she’ll never touch HER NXT Women’s Championship. On Sunday, Jacy walks out with both titles to be the ONLY double champion- WAIT! Sol Ruca is here!
Jacy is upset that she’s getting interrupted again but Sol needs Jacy to hold on just a moment. Jacy’s the only one with two titles? Okay, we know Grace put Jacy through the wringer, but damn, dude. Wait, Sol will help you count. Sol has the Women’s North American Championship across her chest, and she spins to show that the Women’s Speed Championship is across her back! So if Sol puts her money on anyone, it’s Masha. And last Zaria checked, Sol was the MVP of the weekend. Sol had THREE matches back-to-back. And unlike Fatal Influence, ZaRuca doesn’t need to talk to make a statement. They just need to get in the ring.
Jazmyn says do not insult them like that. Zaria is just upset that this group are all real friends. And at least when Fatal Influence has a problem, they talk it out. Instead of ZaRuca, where it’s all “by accident.” Well the brawl pops off, that’s no accident! Sol DROPKICKS Fallon, Zaria RAMS into Jacy again and again, and Masha DECKS Jazmyn! Zaria feeds Jacy into Sol’s SUPERKICK! Zaria ROCKS Jacy, Masha DECKS her! The fans fire up while the Fatal Influence flounders away! Will Masha make sure Jacy Jayne is humbled once and for all? Or will that ego only grow exponentially on Sunday?
Six Man Tag: Trick Williams, Joe Hendry & Mike Santana VS Dark State!
The TNA- Er, Trick’N A World Champion is not happy tonight. Not just because he has to team with the two men he’s facing on Sunday, but because those guys put him through a table at the Great American Bash! Then he’s accused of being in league with Saquon Shugars, Dion Lennox, Osiris Griffin & Cutler James. Can Trick beat the allegations by working together with the Prestigious and the Proud? Or will Dark State prove that whether it is NXT, TNA, or beyond, #NoOneIsSafe?
But then Santana FLIES to wipe Dark State out first! The fans fire up as Santana & Hendry go after these four wild dogs! Trick is a bit uncertain but Santana puts Saquon in. The bell rings, Santana dodges Saquon and BOOTS him! Santana goes up and over, blocks a kick to ENZIGIRI back! Santana then wrenches for the atomic FACEBUSTER! And SENTON! The fans fire up with Santana and he brings Saquon to a cover, ONE! Santana wrenches, wristlocks, but Trick tags himself in. Trick scoops Saquon to SLAM! And then scoops to SLAM again! Then he dodges a shot to CHOP, CHOP, and CHOP! Saquon blocks a chop to throat chop!
Saquon shoves, Trick slips around to whip. Osiris sneaks a tag before Trick’s LEG LARIAT! Saquon wants Trick to take it easy, and Trick mocks Hendry. Hendry tells Trick to watch out, and Trick turns around into a LARIAT! Big Osiris talks trash as he looms over Trick, but NXT goes to break.
NXT returns and Osiris bumps Trick off buckles. Osiris fires hands, then he SCRAPES Trick’s face off the ropes! Osiris fires body shots, tags Saquon, and Saquon RAMS Trick! Saquon feeds Trick to Osiris’s scoop and SLAM! Then Osiris scoops Saquon to SLAM him onto Trick! The fans boo but Saquon scrapes his sole off Trick’s face. Saquon CLUBS Trick, brings him around, and he tags Osiris back in. Feed to another scoop and another SLAM, then Osiris scoops Saquon again. SLAMÂ onto knees! Trick gets the better of them and he fires hands! Osiris KNEES low, clinches, and back suplexes, but Trick lands out!
Trick staggers, Santana tags in! Santana dodges Osiris, BLASTS Dion & Saquon, then fires off CHOPS on Osiris! Santana bobs ‘n’ weaves as Osiris throws hands, then he ROCKS Osiris. The fans rally, Santana whips, but Osiris reverses. Santana springboards to CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO! Santana stays focused, but Dion distracts the ref! The ref keeps the raging Dion back, and Cutler trips Santana up! The fans boo, Santana warns Cutler, but Osiris THROWS Santana to the corner! LARIAT! Tag to Dion and he tags Saquon. They send Dion in and he RAMS Santana, and Saquon adds a DROPKICK!
Saquon & Dion feed Santana to Osiris for a scoop and POWERSLAM! Saquon covers, TWO! Santana toughs it out and the fans rally up, but Saquon drops knees. Tag to Dion and he fires forearms and body shots. Dion whips Santana, LARIATS him down, then covers, ONE!! Santana is still in this but Dion keeps him down with a rear bearhug. The fans rally for Santana as he endures. Santana fights up, only for Dion to SLAM him down! Dion squeezes tight, leans on Santana, but the fans rally. Santana fights up again, reaches out, but NXT goes to break.
NXT returns, Santana is still fighting the bearhug, and he elbows his way free! Santana runs up to BLAST Osiris, Saquon gets away, and Dion picks Santana up! Dion throws Santana away, Santana DECKS Saquon! Dion waistlocks again but Santana bucks the O’Conner to then roll back and STUN- NO, Dion makes it a SLAM! Dion has Santana caught in the bearhug again! The fans rally for Santana, reaches out, but Dion keeps him from the ropes. Santana fires elbows again, but Dion CLUBS him on the back! Dion storms up, tags Osiris, and he sends Dion in. Santana goes up and over, Dion runs into Saquon!
Santana slips around Osiris, shoves him into Dion, then goes for his corner! Dion & Osiris hurry to drag Santana back! They whip Santana, he BOOTS Saquon! Roll back and DOUBLE STUNNER! The fans fire up as Santana is all alone! Saquon tags in and hurries to grab a leg! Santana BOOTS him away again! Hot tag to Hendry! The fans fire up as Hendry rallies with LARIAT after LARIAT! Hendry fires hands on Osiris, but Osiris just smiles! Osiris swings, but into a wrench and DDT! Osiris flounders, Hendry dodges Dion to scoop and FALL AWAY SLAM! Kip up and… Saquon shoves him! Hendry catches Saquon on the return!
FALL AWAY SALM! Kip up and… TURN! The fans fire up with Hendry as he choke grips Saquon. Saquon fights free but Hendry fireman’s carries! WIDOWMAKER! Cover, Dark State breaks it! Santana & Trick storm in, it is another brawl! The fans fire up, Osiris TOSSES Trick while Hendry & Santana TOSS Saquon & Dion! Osiris runs up, Santana DUMPS him out!

Arianna Grace talks with the Women’s Locker Room.
Miss NXT knows Evolution was wonderful, but that battle royal was missing some… royalty! Wouldn’t they all agree? Karmen Petrovic sarcastically agrees. But honestly, it was also missing some of that #ShingShing. Evolve Women’s Champion, Kali Armstrong, laughs as she enters and asks Karmen what the heck was she gonna do in that battle royal? Cuz she damn sure wasn’t gonna win it! As a champion, Kali should’ve been in there! And then, Kali would be on her way to Paris for another title match. Karmen says she gets it, Kali is “feeling herself” after her first title defense and a win over the one and only Natalya.
But since Kali wants to come in here and run her mouth, maybe Karmen can talk with Ava and get a match to take that title right off Kali. Kali says Karmen has no idea who she’s talking to, does she? Because she doesn’t back down from nobody, and especially not Karmen. Talk to Ava, they can get it crackin’ tonight! Karmen says they sure will! Arianna says that escalated quickly. But is Karmen going to prove she’s ready to Evolve? Or will she get run through by the Kali Connection?
Jordynne Grace arrives!
The Juggernaut storms through the parking lot and into the building. Will the Fatal Influence make sure they’re not around for her to find them?
WWE Evolve Women’s Championship: Kali Armstrong VS Karmen Petrovic!
NXT returns as Sword Girl Karmen makes her entrance. The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and one way or another, history will be made with this Evolve title defended on NXT TV!
The bell rings and the fans rally up. The two tie up, Kali THROWS Karmen down, and Kali talks trash already. Kali and Karmen reset, and Karmen sweeps the legs! Then she LEG LARIATS! Karmen taunts Kali back, then KICKS! KICKS! And steps over to HEEL KICK! Karmen whips, Kali reverses, but Karmen goes up to SOBAT! Karmen runs up, ducks, but Kali ROCKS her with the left! Then DECKS her with the right! The fans fire up, Kali reels Karmen in and whips her to ropes. Karmen ducks ‘n’ dodges but Kali scoops to POWERSLAM! Kali builds speed, but Jordynne Grace trips her up!? And then drags her out to URAKEN!?
Winner: Kali Armstrong, by disqualification (still WWE Evolve Women’s Champion)
Kali keeps her title but now she wanted to do it! Grace doesn’t care about anyone else right now as she then storms up on Karmen, blocks a kick, and hits the MUSCLE PLEX! Grace demands a mic, a mic is given, and Grace shouts, “BLAKE!!” The fans fire up as Grace says she is not leaving this ring until Blake gets out here to tell us why she did what she did! Stevie Turner & Robert Stone show up instead and tell Grace that Blake isn’t even here so she has to calm down. Grace does not calm down, but then the tron plays a message! “Breaking news! Blake Monroe despises everything about Jordynne Grace!”
What? Footage replays of Blake playing up being a friend, and then he betrayal! “Blake Monroe believes Jordynne Grace isn’t even worthy to carry her shoes, much less the NXT Women’s Championship. When you look at Blake Monroe, and then you look at Jordynne Grace, who would you rather be? Yeah, she thought so.” Blake then speaks for herself by saying, “Oh, it’s not your fault, JG. But you are cordially invited to sit front row next week in Houston when I make my NXT singles debut! Then you’ll see the difference between me and you.” Stone says see? That’s enough, right? Blake isn’t here, Grace has to wait until next week.
Stevie tries to usher Grace out of the ring, but Grace DECKS her, and SPINEBUSTERS Stone! Grace is furious as she storms to the back! Ava and security show up and Ava tells Grace that she needs to stop! Grace storms off, will Blake regret every turning on the Juggernaut?
LFG’s Team Undertaker is backstage.
And they’re feeling great! Dani’s got a point, Shiloh’s got a point, they are unstoppable! Sunday is big, but Tuesday sees Taker head home to Houston for NXT! Bayley Humphrey says that is gonna be sick! But wait, Trick storms through. He tells them to watch out! Did they not see what happened to him out there? Oh, okay, they’re on the hit A&E show, so they think they can do whatever they want, huh? Newsflash: When the Trick’N A Champion tells you to move, you move! And if you’re feeling froggy, let’s jump! LFG, let’s talk about it! Drake Morreaux wants to step up but Shiloh has him stand down.
Trick says don’t hurt yourself now. Maybe go ask Taker if it’s a good idea stepping to Trick or not. Trick tells this is a waste of time anyway. He doesn’t see what Taker sees in them. Trick storms off, and then Shiloh gets a call. It’s from Taker! Shiloh answers, was the American Badass watching? What advice is he about to give his team about dealing with bullies?
Jasper Troy enters Ava’s office.
He knows she wanted to see him, and she says what happened on Saturday was unacceptable. Yes, Troy’s PLE debut match against Je’Von Evans didn’t go his way, but attacking Ricky Saints like that was the wrong choice. Troy can’t just attack those who upset him. Troy says he was just standing there, they bumped into him. Ava says Troy may have won LFG Season 1, and he may want to keep that momentum going, but he is in NXT now. If he wants to prove himself, he does it in the matches she puts together. Okay, let him get this straight: he was minding his own business, Ricky Saints bumps into him, so he got what was coming to him!
Ava says this is NXT. They settle things int he ring. Next week< Troy VS Saints, 1v1 in Houston. Troy smiles and says, “Say less. Ricky Saints is gonna bend the knee, then I’m gonna break him.” Troy storms off, will the MonStar bring absolute destruction to H-Town?
Backstage interview with Lash Legend.
Kelly Kincaid is with the woman who had a dominant performance in the Evolution Battle Royal, lasting until she was the runner-up! The Bougie Bully says that’s right! Lash Legend talked a big game, backed it up in her city of ATL, and she threw out some big names! Zelina Vega, Nikki Bella, and even Nia Jax! Girl, she could’ve won the whole thing, just saying. But then what does Lash plan to do next? Well, we’ll see on Sunday that one woman will walk out with two titles. So on Tuesday in Houston, Lash will greet the double champ. If it is Masha, then she meets the one ‘n’ only. And if it’s Jacy, then-
Jaida Parker walks in chanting, “Miss Parker! Miss Parker!” She asks if Lash remembers hearing that, because Jaida sure does. And well, Lash ain’t the only woman that made an impression. Hell, Jaida threw out the future Hall of Famer, Natalya! And she had Lash’s city chanting her name. If it is anyone confronting the double champ, it is Miss Parker, #ClockIt. Lash says the delusion! Girl bye. Jaida and Lash might just clash, who will be deemed worthy of challenging the dual NXT-TNA Women’s Champion?
Family Business Triple Threat: Tony D’Angelo VS Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo VS Luca Crusifino!
Once upon a time, a young man became The Don of NXT, and it was the dawn of something special. Tony D would bring in his best friend as his Underboss.

The No Quarter Catch Crew talks backstage.
It has been a week and Tavion Heights still can’t understand why Wren Sinclair threw the towel in. She says she cares about Tavion, and Charlies Dempsey wasn’t going to let up. She knows Tavion is a badass, but he can’t be badass if he gets injured. Tavion is still upset, but Wren asks if he’d really risk his whole career on a torn muscle just to get out of NQCC? Tavion says it isn’t even about leaving NQCC! But look at Myles Borne! Myles got his shot, Tavion wants his own! Tavion knows what he can do as a singles wrestler! And the truth of the matter is… Tavion trails off as he sees Charlie Dempsey walks in.
Charlie says it’s okay, Tavion, he can keep going. Tavion says yeah, Dempsey beat him, so he has nothing to say to Charlie. Right, other than blame poor Wren here. Charlie says better luck next week, because they can always go again. Before Tavion can answer, Wren says they’re going to be too busy next week. Doing what? Doing something for Wren for once! She is facing Blake Monroe in her home state of Texas! Tavion says heck yeah! Tavion tells Charlie they’ll table their issue for now, they should do this for Wren. Charlie says sure, they’ll table this, for now. Wren tells them to stop, can’t she get a week?
And for the record, she would never leave them. So if they wanna be in her corner, totally their choice. Wren heads out, can the NQCC keep it together for all their benefit?
Josh Briggs is in the ring!
The fans boo the Bullhead Brawler as he has the mic, and he says, “Saturday at the Great American Bash, I watched the opportunity of a lifetime get squandered. I did everything that I could to make sure that my friend left with the NXT Championship. Look, he didn’t want to win as bad as I wanted him to win. That’s not even why I’m mad. How long has Inamura been here? What? Maybe a little less than a year? And he already got an NXT Championship match on a PLE? Bro, I’ve been here for four years having some of the best matches in NXT history, and I haven’t even sniffed an NXT Championship match.”
The fans boo and chant “You Suck!” at Briggs, but Briggs says Inamura is… What do you call it? Too nice. Inamura is too nice, and this is a cutthroat business. If you have an opportunity, you take your shot and win by any means necessary! But wait, OBA FEMI is here! The fans fire up for The Ruler heads to the ring. Briggs and Oba stare down, and Oba has a mic of his own to say, “Josh, you know Saturday was never supposed to be about you. But you were present in the guise of being in Inamura’s corner. But your presence that day cause some troubles. What you don’t understand is that whether you were there or not, The Ruler was always going to come out on top.”
The fans cheer but Briggs shakes his head. Oba says because of Briggs, that match was ruined! The people are questioning the validity of Oba’s victory, and it is all because Briggs! Briggs ruined it with his jealousy! JEALOUS?! Briggs saw Oba drowning in the deep end, and Inamura let Oba up for air. Oba has been taken to his limit every week, and he’s about to break. Nothing lasts forever. And Oba knows now that Inamura is a man of honor, but he also knows for damn sure that Briggs is not! The fans boo, but Inamura storms out here to confront Briggs. Briggs doesn’t speak for Inamura! What is Briggs even doing right now?
Briggs says he is doing what Inamura should’ve done at The Bash. Oba says we all know Inamura deserves another shot at the title, and that Briggs doesn’t deserve a single thing! Briggs says no, the only reason Oba thinks that is because Oba knows Inamura won’t do whatever it takes! Inamura speaks up, “Damare! <Shut up!>” Inamura tells Briggs that Inamura is his own man! And he will do what it takes to win, but he’ll do it with HONOR! HIS WAY! The fans cheer that! Briggs says if Inamura is so confident, then how about this? Next week, Houston, TRIPLE THREAT for the NXT Championship! Inamura says yeah, sure!
Oba says Briggs’ pride will be his downfall. Is this really what Briggs wants? BRIGGS THROWS HANDS! The fans fire up for the brawl, Briggs shoves Inamura away and keeps after Oba! Oba turns things around, Briggs dodges so Oba ends up hitting Inamura! Oba and Briggs brawl again, Inamura storms up but Briggs ELBOWS Inamura! Briggs LARIATS Oba up and out, and then Briggs realizes what he did to Inamura. Briggs walks over to his friend, but too late for that as Inamura shoves Briggs! Oba wants back in, but refs and security rush out there! Will the NXT Championship match be bigger in Texas?
Ethan Page speaks.
O Canada plays in the background as All Ego says, “The past two weeks we have celebrated some great days. July 1st, Canada Day, where Canada gained it’s independence from Great Britain. Amazing. As well as July 4th, where we all celebrated this great nation turning 249 years old! Incredible. And this Saturday, The Great American Bash, All Ego Ethan Page, North America’s favorite athlete, competed against Ricky Saints in a Falls Count Anywhere match where I almost broke my back, risking life and limb to turn back Ricky Saints and successfully defend the North American Championship for the countries it represents.
“Now personally, I’m ready for a celebration. Just not tonight. And not because of the fickle people of Orlando. But because I truly can’t think of a better place to celebrate such a huge triumph than the heart of America, Houston, Texas. God bless each and every one of you, and God bless America.” The Egomaniac might be a bit sarcastic here, but will he have his own great North American bash next week?
Backstage interview with Ricky Saints.
Kelly Kincaid is now with The Absolute, and she asks that after the brutal Falls Count Anywhere on Saturday, how is he feeling? Saints will put it this way: a lesser man wouldn’t be standing here right now. When he came to NXT, he promised everyone that he was going to be the man around here, and the only way to do that is to show up and show out every time out. Saints did that on Saturday. Yes, Ethan retained, but that is not without Saints mentioning Jasper Troy. Troy picked the wrong place but the right guy in Ricky. What Troy lacks in experience, he makes up for it in his rage. That rage has cost Troy some matches, but guess what? It’ll cost Troy again in Houston.
Saints promises that Troy finds out why Saints is everything that he says he is, and that is Absolute. Saints heads out, will he bring down the MonStar?
BREAKING NEWS for NXT Houston!
That call to Shiloh earlier was about Taker’s appearance on NXT next week. Taker even tweeted that Trick better watch himself! TNA Championship or not, Trick better stay out of Taker’s yard. Will Taker and Trick have it out with more than just words when NXT arrives in Houston?
Masha & ZaRuca prepare backstage.
All three are confident that they’ve got this handled tonight against Fatal Influence. Sol assures Masha she’ll easily become a double champion. Masha thanks them for that, but guess what? That’s Sunday. This is tonight. Time to kick some ass! They head out, but The Culling is in the background. Izzi Dame finds Tatum Paxley hunkered in a corner and tells her to stand up. Tatum doesn’t want them to be mad at her. They lost at Great American Bash and at Evolution, it’s all her fault! Izzi says she isn’t mad at Tatum, she’s mad at Sol. They’ll always be friends, that’ll never change. Wow, no one’s ever said that to her before.
Izzi says that’s the problem with this place. But Tatum doesn’t have to worry about that with The Culling. Okay. Then Tatum has an idea. Oh? Izzi, Spears & Vance are intrigued, what could be going on in Tatum’s twisted mind?
Six Woman Tag: Masha Slamovich & ZaRuca VS The Fatal Influence!
The Russian Dynamite, The Sol Surfer & The Agent of Change stand against the Toxic Rockstar, Toxic Cowgirl, and their soccer ace, a lot of gold shining in the spotlight. But who will be riding high just days away from TNA Slammiversary?
The trios sort out and… Wait, is that Lexis King in the crowd? Wearing noise-cancelling headphones? The Drama King has been really weird lately, hasn’t he? Anyway, we start with Fallon and Zaria. They tie up, are in a deadlock as Fallon can’t push Zaria back. Zaria SHOVES Fallon down, Fallon gets up, and Zaria runs in. Fallon dodges, comes back, but Zaria grabs her around the neck!

Bridging cover again, TWO!
Jazmyn bridges to have a CHANCERY on Sol! Sol endures, fights, but Jazmyn flips around to keep Sol from her corner. Sol BACKDROPS Jazmyn! Jazmyn sunset flips, Sol rolls through, but Jazmyn sweeps the legs! Jazmyn dribbles Sol off the mat, puts her in the corner, tag to Jacy. Jacy stomps a mudhole, digs her boot in, but stops at 4.

Winners: Masha Slamovich & ZaRuca, by pinfall
The TNA Knockouts Champion just pinned the NXT Women’s Champion, but the NXT fans are all for it! Will Masha soon be TNA & NXT Women’s Champion? Or will the Fatal Influence find a way to defuse Russian Dynamite?
My Thoughts:
A great NXT to follow up the big Atlanta weekend, but not quite as powerful as last night’s Raw. Classic move to have opening promo set up main event, and Fatal Influence spinning their dysfunction as somehow healthy was a good Heel move. Good brawl from that promo, very good match in the main event, but of course The Culling starts beef again. Looks like we can get a Mixed 8 Person Tag of The Culling VS ZaRuca, Hank ‘n’ Tank out of this, and then maybe we get title rematches. As I said on Saturday, Izzi should support Tatum to go for the Women’s North American Championship, that’d be a nice change for the story.
That bit with Lexis King was weird, but I guess it goes in line with how weird he was being last week. Is Lexis slowly turning his character away from the obnoxious Drama King and heading for a Loose Cannon Brian Pillman Junior deal? Honestly, I dig that. After AEW folded Varsity Athletes to give way to Premier Athletes, Julia Hart found her House of Black persona, but Griff and Brian floundered. Griff recovered by joining Cole Karter as first Maria Kanellis’ team and then they formed Frat Housed, but Brian never really found himself in AEW. Or perhaps was never given the chance, looking back at “Lineage” with Arn & Brock Anderson not even being officially announced.
Great promo from Ethan Page to hype up next week, and it really seems like NXT Houston next week is going to be a huge episode. Ethan’s celebration of himself is surely “ruined” by Je’Von Evans to set up something for Heatwave. Good promos from Jasper Troy with Ava and then Ricky Saints backstage to set up their match. That’ll be great stuff, and could set up the winner for a shot at THE NXT Championship for Heatwave. And that’s because we’re getting an awesome Triple Threat next week for that title. Great promo from Briggs, Oba and Inamura, and it’s kinda like we’re recreating Oba VS Briggs VS Dijak, just with Inamura. But would they really have the title change hands on TV, even with it being live in front of a Houston crowd?
Very good Six Man Tag from Dark State VS Trick, Hendry & Santana, and it works that The System showed up to go after Dark State. The disqualification finish keeps Trick, Hendry & Santana all fairly strong going into their title match, but again there is Thursday and TNA Impact to figure out some final go-home math. As I said on Great American Bash, I think Dark State helping Trick is the best way for him to win so it keeps Hendry and Santana strong. At the same time, this so easily makes for a 5v5 of Team TNA VS Team NXT, aka Hendry, Santana & The System VS Trick & Dark State. Survivor Series is in November, NXT hasn’t planned that far out, but they could do something to match the theme.
Also good bit from Trick with Undertaker’s LFG team. Taker showing up for NXT Houston was one thing, but now he and Trick might have it out. At the very least, Taker helps set up like Trick VS Drake Morreaux, or Shiloh Hill, whoever is doing better in LFG. Good stuff featuring Kali Armstrong and the Evolve Women’s Championship tonight, but I did not think it’d be as a vehicle to feature Grace brutalizing people and calling out Blake Monroe. Good promo from NQCC to show there are still tensions, but also to set up Wren VS Blake. Blake surely wins, but she and Grace are obviously going to face off at Heatwave.
And great stuff with the D’Angelo Family “final ride.” This is perhaps the first time there’s been a three-way breakup of a group. Tag teams fall apart all the time, and factions either divide into halves or kick members out as they need to, but this was three men all agreeing they need to ditch the other two if they wanna get ahead. And as I’d been saying during this, that’s true, because none of them are reaching THE NXT Championship as they are. Stacks is still labeled Heritage Cup Champion, so it’s just a matter of him fishing it out of the river, but Tony can now move up to face whoever wins the Triple Threat in Houston. Bada bing, bada boom, Tony is new Grand Slam Champion in NXT.
My Score: 8.8/10
