PLAY BY PLAY

Asuka VS Charlotte Flair!

The Empress of Tomorrow lost her WWE Women’s Championship, but not to the Queen! Bianca Belair pulled off an incredible victory in the Triple Threat, but even then, Bianca isn’t champion because Iyo Sky cashed in her Money in the Bank contract! With all eyes on a new target, who wins here to go after the Evil Genius?

The bell rings and fans rally as the two stare down. Asuka and Charlotte circle, tie up, and go around. Charlotte wrenches to a wristlock and she keeps Asuka from ropes. Asuka flips through ropes, wrenches back and has the wristlock. Fans rally, Charlotte cartwheels and wrenches, but Asuka fires forearms and a SOBAT! Asuka runs, RAMS Charlotte, but she stays up! So Asuka shoves her! Charlotte shoves Asuka, forearms fly, and fans fire up as the shots are heavy! Charlotte then runs Asuka over! Fans fire up, things speed up, Charlotte rolls and then dodges Asuka to hurdle. Asuka avoids the rollback to DROPKICK Charlotte down!

Fans fire up, Asuka storms up to KICK Charlotte! And KICK! And KICK! And KICK, but Charlotte blocks! Charlotte trips Asuka, has the legs, but Asuka kicks her away! Charlotte BOOTS Asuka back down! Fans “WOO~!” for Charlotte as she storms up on Asuka. Charlotte whips corner to corner but Asuka reverses. Charlotte tumbles up and out and BOOTS back again! Charlotte goes up the corner, fans fire up, but Asuka ROCKS her first! And then TOSSES Charlotte down! Asuka goes up a corner, to MISSILE DROPKICK! And then she runs in, SLIDING KICK! Cover, TWO! Charlotte is still in this but Asuka grins as SmackDown goes to break.

SmackDown returns as Charlotte PLANCHAS out onto Asuka! Fans fire up with The Queen and she drags Asuka back into the ring. Charlotte goes up the corner again, but Asuka stands, so Charlotte CROSSBODIES! She rolls through and fans fire up as Charlotte storms around. Asuka stands, into a CHOP! And CHOP! And CHOP! The CHOPS keep going, the “WOO~” echoes out, and Asuka falls over! Charlotte scoops to FALL AWAY SLAM! Charlotte kips up, goes to a corner, runs in to handspring and LARIAT! Cover, TWO! Asuka is still in this but now Charlotte grins. Charlotte stalks Asuka and waistlocks.

Asuka fights with elbows, but charlotte ducks a kick to shove. Charlotte then follows, to SPEAR! Charlotte doesn’t stop there, she has the legs, but IYO SKY is here! She AND Damage Control swagger on stage to show off that Women’s Championship, and Asuka cradles Charlotte! TWO!! Charlotte escapes, but Asuka ROUNDHOUSES her! But Charlotte BOOTS her in return! Both women are down, and Bayley has everyone cheer for Iyo! The ref has a standing count on Asuka and Charlotte, both rise at 5 of 10. Charlotte ELBOWS Asuka, Asuka ROCKS Charlotte, and why is Bayley on the apron?

The brawl continues, Charlotte sees Bayley and takes a swipe! Bayley gets away, and Charlotte turns around into a CODE BREAKER! But Iyo gets up to springboard, DOUBLE MISSILE DROPKICK on Charlotte & Asuka!

No Contest

Fans are torn as DMG CTRL mugs Asuka and Charlotte! Bayley & Iyo high-five while Dakota cheers on the outside. Fans start booing more than anything, and Bayley RAMS Charlotte into buckles! Iyo SHOTEIS Asuka, then POSTS her! The WWE Women’s Champion holds up her title, then she and DMG CTRL head out. Dakota tells them to cheer their new champion, Iyo Sky! Will nothing stop DMG CTRL from taking control?

 

Backstage interview with Santos Escobar.

Kayla Braxton is with “The Sensational” Emperor of Lucha, and asks what his mindset is tonight ahead of his US Championship match. Escobar says in Spanish and then in English that there is only one word to describe it: confident. Escobar says tonight, he has Austin Theory’s number. And tonight- THEORY ATTACKS! Theory throws Escobar around, and wants Escobar to tell him what he’s got! BACK SUPLEX ON A TRUNK! Theory throws hands, says HE’S the champ, but refs try to back him off! Theory SLAMS a trunk lid on the leg!! The rest of the LWO rushes in and Theory runs off! Did Theory just make sure he WON’T have to defend his title?

 

We check in with the trainer’s room.

Escobar’s leg is heavily iced up, will he be unable to compete tonight?

 

AJ Styles w/ Mia Yim VS Karrion Kross w/ Scarlett Bordeaux!

Have we had this 1v1 match before? Yes. But as the saying goes, those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Will the Phenomenal One and Michin have the answer to stopping the apocalypse? Or will Styles once again #FallAndPray?

SmackDown returns as Kross & Scarlett make their entrance. The bell rings and the two rush in! Styles DROPKICKS, then runs in at the corner. Kross BOOTS Styles away, then runs up, but Styles catches Kross for a BACKBREAKER! Styles then gets the legs, ties them up and has a MUTA LOCK! Kross endures, pries at the crossface, but Styles still has the legs. Kross fights up, and he throat chops Styles! Styles sputters and goes to ropes, but Kross whips him and back drops him! Fans rally for Styles but Kross snarls as he aims from a corner. Styles goes to the other, Kross runs corner to corner to clothesline, ELBOW and FOREARM!

Kross wants to feel Styles’ hate! And then he clinches to EXPLODER! Styles flounders, Kross shouts, “Who’s the man?!” Fans boo, they don’t think it’s him. Cover, ONE!! Styles then fires body shots, but Kross knees low. Kross throws hands, whips Styles into a corner, then fires off haymakers. Kross whips corner to corner hard and Styles falls back! Mia coaches Styles but Kross stomps him down. Kross drags Styles up to bump him off buckles but the fans rally up. Scarlett tells them to shut up, but Styles fights back! Kross CLUBS Styles and Styles almost falls off the corner! Kross drags Styles back up and climbs up.

Kross stands Styles up, but Styles slips under to trip Kross! Kross hits buckles, and Styles clotheslines him out! Fans fire up while Scarlett worries. Styles says if Kross wants hate, here it is! But Kross blocks the sliding knee! Fireman’s carry, DEATH VALLEY DRIVER onto the announce desk! Styles writhes and Kross roars as SmackDown goes to break.

SmackDown returns again and Styles fires off the Phenomenal Blitz! LARIAT takes Kross down, and Styles adds a SLIDING FOREARM! Fans fire up with Styles, and he runs in at the corner to clothesline! Fireman’s carry, but Kross slips off! Kross shoves Styles then puts him on the pron. But Styles ROCKS Kross! Fans fire up, Styles takes aim, springboard, PHENOMENAL- NO, KROSSJACKET!! Kross has Styles caught, but Styles endures! Styles reaches out, pushes off buckles, and rolls to a cover! TWO and Kross keeps the Krossjacket! Fans rally, Styles fights up again, and Styles goes back to a corner to RAM Kross into buckles!

Fans fire up as Styles hops up, QUEBRADA! Then a suplex, but Kross fights! So Styles hits the REVERSE DDT! Cover, TWO! Kross survives, messy as all that was. Scarlett coaches Kross but Styles brings him up for Kawada Kicks! Kross falls over and fans rally up. Styles goes to the apron and takes aim again, to springboard 450 SPLASH!! Cover, Scarlett helps with the ropebreak!! Fans boo but Mia storms up! The Head Baddie chases after, but Scarlett dodges and the boot hits post! Then Scarlett DECKS Mia! Fans boo but Styles scowls. Kross storms up to CLOBBER Styles! Kross then hits the DOOMSDAY SAIDO!

Kross says time’s up, and he throws off the elbow pad! Kross winds up, but Styles ducks the Kross Hammer to ENZIGURI! Styles reels Kross in, but Scarlett distracts on the apron! So Mia YANKS her down, and TOSSES her over the announce desk! Fans fire up but Kross wrenches out! Styles PELES! And then STYLES CLASH!! Cover, Styles wins!!

Winner: AJ Styles, by pinfall

History does NOT repeat itself as Styles finally gets the better of Kross, and Mia even gets the better of Scarlett! Will The OC be able to move on from doomsday now? Or will Kross & Scarlett try to double down?

 

Cathy Kelley is by the trainer’s room.

She is waiting on an update on Escobar’s condition but Theory walks over to say he’s upset that he won’t get to defend his US Championship tonight. He knows Escobar is toilet paper, where you just look at him and he falls apart, but- REY storms over, producers keeping him back. Rey tells Theory not to get ahead of himself, because Escobar will be ready for tonight. Oh yeah? Theory hopes so, because he was concerned~! Rey wants to take a swing but the producers pull him back again! Theory gets away with this, for now. Will Escobar make it to the title match like Rey promises?

 

EDGE IS HERE!

Calgary, Alberta, Canada fires up as The Rated R Superstar returns to SmackDown! And while he’s hit his 25th anniversary as a WWE superstar, just what is the occasion? We find out, after the break!

SmackDown returns and Edge is in the ring with a mic. Fans are all fired up, and Edge tells Calgary that he knows what they’re thinking. “Edge, what the heck are you doing here? You weren’t advertised.” And Edge knows he has his 25th anniversary celebration coming up in his hometown of Toronto, Ontario–and don’t boo them while he’s in here–but Edge saw Calgary was on the docket. And it has been way too long since they’ve seen each other! Fans cheer that! Edge says he just needed an excuse to be here, so here it is: next week, in Toronto, Edge wants a match! And Edge wants a match against a man he has never faced 1v1, even in all the time they’ve both been in the WWE

That’s crazy, right? Because that man is Sheamus! They have history together, a lot that people probably don’t know about. Sheamus is honestly the reason Edge is still standing here. Fans cheer that as Edge explains Sheamus is the man who lit a fire under Edge to get back here and do this again after nine years retired and a triple neck fusion. Fans cheer that, and Edge says Sheamus has a YouTube show, Celtic Warrior Workouts, and he wanted to do a show in Canada with Edge. Sheamus wanted to do some challenges, so Edge thought okay, get him on a mountain bike. Make him look like “an albino gorilla making love to a volleyball. And he did.”

Edge also thought he’d see Sheamus wipeout. That’d be funny, to Edge. But then Sheamus didn’t, Edge did! 20 miles per hour, a downhill jump, and Edge rolled to his feet thinking that fans would wonder, if Edge can do that, why can’t he wrestle? Then the lightbulb lit. Fans cheer for that! Edge said to himself, maybe he can do the thing he’s supposed to do, again. So fast forward to Royal Rumble 2020 and Edge is getting ready. He needed to see if he was really ready, so who did he call? Sheamus. And Edge knew Sheamus would be honest with him and let him know. Sheamus came over, stayed with Edge, and became a part of Edge’s extended family.

Edge takes a moment as fans chant “Thank You, Sheamus!” Edge says they got into a ring every day and kicked the crap outta each other! And Edge realized after that, he was ready. Edge says now, he is here in Calgary to prove it. So Edge needs an answer. Without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for the Brawling Brutes and the Celtic Warrior, Sheamus! Fans fire up as the Brutes make their way out! Sheamus smiles and high-fives the front row as he goes to the ring. Sheamus, Ridge Holland & Pete Dunne step into the ring and Edge hands Sheamus a mic. Edge says good to see the boys.

Sheamus asks what’s the crack! What a man! What a Canadian! But Edge mentioned that Celtic Warrior Workout footage, and it so happens Sheamus held onto that footage! So Calgary, whaddya say to seeing the footage that got Edge back in the saddle? Roll it! It was 2019, these two riding down the trail, and Edge wipes out right in front of Sheamus! “That was a good one!” Edge got some road rash, sure, but otherwise okay. Edge says he can’t believe Sheamus showed Edge’s bare white butt cheek on TV. Did they really have to do that? Sheamus wants Edge to remember, he’s shown a lot more than that on TV before.

Edge says okay, well-played. But fine, ya red-headed yeti. Edge has something in return! The picture of Sheamus, borrowing a bike from Edge’s daughter, Ruby. Sheamus thought they were gonna “burn” that picture. Take it down already! But anyway, listen. Truth is, mate, this is Edge’s platform. He could hit Sheamus on the chin all he wants, at least his chin isn’t as big as Edge’s. Oh, okay, yeah, Edge has shovel-face, whatever. What does Sheamus have to say about the challenge? Sheamus says he’ll get serious, and brings up a story that maybe Edge doesn’t remember, and many people don’t know.

Sheamus was at a crossroads, unsure if he’d continue following his dream of pro-wrestling or go back to some IT job or whatever. And he was working in Dublin, the WWE came into town, the O2, and everyone was there! Sheamus saw this as the perfect chance to ask for advice and get things going again. He got the cold shoulder from everyone but Edge. Fans cheer that! Edge had just wrestled, was on the two week UK tour track, he didn’t need to give Sheamus the time of day, but not only did he do that, he gave Sheamus the best advice ever, then bought him a pint of Guinness! Where Sheamus comes from, that’s a big deal!

Right there and then, Sheamus knew Edge was a world-class act. So the fact they’ve never faced each other, though Sheamus has been here 15 years, that is astonishing! The truth is, talking about being on the bike and that was the catalyst for this return… Well, without that conversation way before that, Sheamus wouldn’t be here today. Fans cheer that! Edge smiles, and says he appreciates that and appreciates Sheamus. So then, what does Sheamus say? Next week, Edge’s 25th anniversary, two grizzled veterans who’ve done just about everything in the WWE, smacking the crap out of each other for the very first time! And then, they have some Petey’s Scotch.

Fans cheer, they sure wanna see it! Sheamus hears them chanting “YES! YES! YES!” Sheamus says he is a little deaf, what do they think about Rated R Superstar VS Celtic Warrior? The fans get louder! Sheamus says, “Tell you what, fella. You swap that Petey’s Scotch for a pint of Guinness, and you’ve got yourself a deal.” The two shake on it, but then Sheamus pulls Edge in close. “Just hope you didn’t make a mistake.” Edge smiles, and the match is on! Two of the most accomplished superstars ever, facing off for the first time, who will prove to be THE greatest ever?

 

LA Knight VS Top Dolla w/ Hit Row!

Calgary goes wild for The Mega Star, and he’s ready to continue his momentum from the Slim Jim Battle Royal! But will he get caught sleeping on Dolla? Or will this be a #GoodKnight for LA?

The bell rings and B-Fab distracts already! Dolla runs in but Knight dodges to send him into buckles! Knight throws haymakers, whips, but Dolla blocks. Knight kicks and whips but Dolla reverses, and Adonis is there to trip Knight up! The ref reprimands but Dolla runs Knight over! Dolla then CHOKES Knight on the ropes, the ref counts, and Dolla lets off. B-Fab CLAWS Knight! Dolla stands Knight up to bend him back against ropes! The ref counts, Dolla lets off but Adonis sucker punches! Dolla CHOKES Knight again! Dolla lets off as the ref counts, and Knight sputters. Dolla soaks up the heat, “Who hotta than Top Dolla?”

Dolla stands Knight up, fireman’s carries, but Knight handsprings out of the Death Valley Driver! Knight fires off hands, but Dolla TOSSES him to a corner! Dolla runs in, into a BOOT! Knight goes up, FLYING BULLDOG! Fans fire up with Knight but Adonis gets up, so Knight DECKS him! Knight then has everyone spell it out! “L! A! KNIGHT! YEAH!” ELBOW DROP! BFT!! Cover, Knight wins!

Winner: LA Knight, by pinfall

Dolla got dropped like a number one hit single, and Knight gets the mic to echo “YEAH!” with the fans. “LEMME TALK TO YA!” Doesn’t matter where you go in the world, doesn’t matter where Knight goes, Monday Night Raw or Friday Night SmackDown, doesn’t even matter if you call yourself AWESOME~… Or if your name’s Uncle Phil. In the end, you know whose game it is! With everyone saying, L A KNIGHT, YEAH!! The #YeahMovement is rolling, but will it be unstoppable all the way to a title shot?

 

Rey helps Escobar gear up.

Adam Pearce walks in and says that the trainer has cleared Escobar, but he wanted to look Escobar in the eyes to see if he’s good to go. Escobar says yeah, he can go. Okay, then. The match is still on! Theory “wants” this match, too, but will his attack earlier guarantee a win?

 

Bobby Lashley sits with The Street Profits.

This trio is in the lounge with some wine, and the Profits have their secret handshake. Lashley says tonight is a celebration of them destroying what was, and creating an alliance that will guarantee a future with “unlimited possibilities.” They say the saddest thing in life is untapped potential. When Lashley sees the Profits, he sees a ton of talent. It isn’t completely untapped, they have done great things. But last week was something special. Dawkins says sneakin’ folks in suits, it doesn’t get much better than that. Ford says that was great, going out there with his best friend, but things feel… unfinished.

Lashley wants them to think what they can do together. Power, control, championships. It is all waiting for them to take. So what he’s saying is, sky’s the limit! It looks like SmackDown is ready for some new blood to take over. Well they better fall in line then, fam! Cheers!

 

WWE United States Championship: Austin Theory VS Santos Escobar!

After losing to him a few weeks ago in non-title action, The Now made sure that his challenger would be at far less than 100% for the rematch. Will Escobar show that even at less than 100%, he’s still better than a healthy Theory?

NO, WAIT! Theory CHOP BLOCKS Escobar at the ramp!! Fans boo as Theory laughs and taunts Escobar with his belt. The rest of the LWO rushes out again, and then so does Adam Pearce and a medic. Theory has the mic to “apologize” that the fans don’t get to experience Austin Theory Live. But hey, he wanted to defend this title! Guess he can’t since Escobar is just too weak! So ref, get over here and raise the Greatest of All Time’s hand, cuz he’s the greatest! Fans boo, Theory soaks it all up, but Pearce says it’s not going down like that! Theory IS defending his title, right here, right now… against Rey Mysterio!!

Fans are thunderous and Theory is furious, but Rey is even more so! Rey rushes in, Theory swings on him, but Rey dodges to fire off! Rey ROCKS and KICKS, then blocks a kick to KICK Theory! Theory is on ropes, Rey BOOTS him out! Fans fire up again and Rey goes to the apron! FLYING RANA sends Theory down! Rey slides back in, and this match will officially begin after the break!

WWE United States Championship: Austin Theory VS Rey Mysterio!

SmackDown returns and this match is already going, and Theory carries Rey around, talks a lot of trash, but then Rey counters to a RANA! Theory hits buckles, Rey goes up the corner, and Rey FLYING SEATED SENTONS! Things keep moving, Rey springboards to CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO! Rey keeps his cool and he eggs Theory on. Rey stands Theory up but Theory ELBOWS him! Rey ELBOWS back, then QUEBRADAS, but Theory catches Rey! Theory aims for a corner, but Rey slips off to send him into buckles! Rey then goes up, but Theory CLUBS him on the back! Theory then Electric Chair Lifts, but Rey fights!

Rey spins and sunset flip BOMBS Theory into buckles! Cover, TWO! Theory is still in this but fans fire up behind Rey. Fans chant for “619! 619!” and Rey brings Theory up. But Theory BOOTS Rey! Rey staggers, Theory brings him up and fireman’s carries. But Rey slips out of A-Town to ENZIGURI! Rey then 619s Theory in the back! Then dropkicks him to the ropes, redials, and 619- NO, Theory blocks! Theory pops Rey up but the back gives up! Rey LEAP FROG RANAS Theory to ropes, for the 619!! And DROP THE DIME! Cover, REY WINS!!

Winner: Rey Mysterio, by pinfall (NEW WWE United States Champion)

The King of Lucha Libre is once again a champion! And the Now is now the FORMER! Will this loss finally humble Theory? The LWO is there on stage to celebrate with Rey, will this be a resurgence for the team?

 

The Bloodline heads to the ring!

Roman Reigns is still Undisputed Universal Champion AND Tribal Chief, and he leads Paul Heyman & Solo Sikoa out on stage. They raise their fingers for the pyro, and then continue down the ramp. They then stand in the ring, and Roman raises the title for more pyro. After defeating Jey Uso, with help from Solo Sikoa and even Jimmy Uso, we hear what is next for the Head of the Table, after the break.

SmackDown returns again, and after Roman waits out the fans booing him, he asks for the mic. Heyman hands it over, and Roman says, “Calgary… ACKNOWLEDGE ME!” Fans are torn, but Roman continues by asking The Wise Man, “Where’s Jimmy?” Heyman shrugs, he doesn’t know. What does he mean he doesn’t know? He hasn’t seen him? No, Heyman hasn’t seen Jimmy. He hasn’t talked to him? Heyman spoke to Jimmy this morning, and Jimmy was a bit… salty. And Heyman isn’t sure why. Wait, Jimmy quietly appears from the crowd side! Fans boo Jimmy, but he shrugs that off as he goes up the steel steps and into the ring.

Fans chant “YOU SOLD OUT! YOU SOLD OUT!” at Jimmy as he stands before Roman. Roman grins, and says, “Jim. Don’t worry about them, they mean nothing.” Fans boo more but Roman chuckles. Fans chant, “Where’s Your Brother?” in reference to Jey, but Roman says to not worry. Let’s be real! Roman owes Jimmy one. Just name your price! Anything Jimmy wants, it’s done! Jimmy wants a new car? Done! A boat? Better yet, a yacht! A jet, even? Done! Jimmy says he wants NOTHING from Roman! NOTHING. What he did at SummerSlam, it had nothing to do with Roman.

Roman is confused but chuckles again. Jimmy must be confused. Jimmy knows Roman, Roman can make whatever he wants happen! If it’s not material things, then what about power? Position? Jimmy can be the NEW Right Hand Man, Main Event Jimmy! But wait, here comes JEY! Fans fire up as #TheREALChief makes his way out to the ring! Jimmy is a bit wary, but so is Solo Sikoa. Jey storms right up to the ring, gets in and he turns Jimmy around to face him! Jey snatches Jimmy’s mic, stares Jimmy down, and fans rally behind Jey. “I’m about to throw 37 years down the drain right now if you don’t tell me why you did it!”

Jey pushes the mic back into Jimmy’s hands, and Jimmy takes a moment. “I did what I did at SummerSlam, Jey, because I love you.” Fans boo and Roman laughs, that doesn’t sound right. Jimmy knows people think he betrayed Jey out of jealousy, but Uce, if you really wanna know why… Jimmy did it because he was afraid. He was afraid to LOSE Jey! If Jey beat Roman at SummerSlam, he’d be Tribal Chief, and then what? What happens to the Usos? Huh? HUH? Not only that, Uce, but on top of being Tribal Chief, Jey would inherit all that power, and that’d make Jey just like Roman! CORRUPTED!

Jimmy says that the power of Tribal Chief has gone to Roman’s head! Roman’s been playing them! Jimmy would never be able to live with that if he let Jey become “an egotistical, lying, manipulative assh*le like Roman Reigns!” Roman is amused hearing those words thrown at him. Fans chant “ASSH*LE!” at Roman and that annoys him. But Jimmy says that is the truth! He was afraid of what Jey would become. If he doesn’t believe that, fine. If he cuts Jimmy off, fine. If he hates Jimmy for the rest their lives, fine! Jimmy didn’t do it to step on Jey’s shine, to take anything away from him, but because he LOVES Jey!

If Jey wants to kick Jimmy’s face off and unleash 37 years of pain, just give it to him. Fans are torn on that, as is Jey. Roman nods, he wants to see it. Jimmy waits, Jey shakes his head. Jey turns around and won’t even look at Jimmy, so Jimmy walks away. Fans boo, and Roman laughs like a hyena. What’d he tell you? The perfect “I told you” moment! What was he saying this whole time? Jey was gonna mess this whole thing up cuz he’s stupid, a hot head, thinks with his emotions! Jey doesn’t know what he’s doing! This isn’t about Jey & Jimmy! Ain’t about them anymore! Tonight is about one thing and one thing only, as it has been the last three YEARS! How do they not get this?! “ACKNOWLEDGE ME!!” SUPERKICK!!! Down goes Roman!!

Solo rushes Jey and CLOBBERS him! Solo rains down fists, drags Jey back up, and SAMOAN- NO, Jey dodges to SUPERKICK Solo! Roman SUPERMAN PUNCHES Jey!! Fans boo but Roman is seething. Roman aims from a corner, Jimmy is still going up the ramp. Fans want Jimmy to help Jey as Roman lets out the “OOOASH~!” But Jey SUPERKICKS! And SPEARS!! Jey saves himself and fans fire up! Jey gets the mic to shout to Jimmy, “Hold up!” Jey tells Jimmy to come back here. Jimmy is confused, but does Jey mean it? Jey waves him over, the two meet at the ramp, and then Jey SUPERKICKS Jimmy!! Jey didn’t wanna hug it out, he vented his frustrations!

Fans are on Jey’s side with this, and Jey says “I’m out! I’m out the Bloodline, I’m out of Smackdown, I’m out of WWE! Deuces, Uces!” #TheREALChief, quitting WWE? Does he mean that? And what does the rest of the Bloodline do if he does?


My Thoughts:

A great SmackDown here, but quite a bit of recaps from SummerSlam, so Aftermath Syndrome continues to be a thing. Really good opening match from Asuka and Charlotte, but a little surprised DMG CTRL decided to show up and blow that one up. I guess that’s one way to celebrate Iyo becoming new champion. Bayley still has to settle things with Shotzi but you can bet Charlotte and Asuka will want after DMG CTRL, that could make for an interesting tag match or Six Woman Tag or something in there before someone steps up as Iyo’s first challenger. I refrain from saying Bianca is automatic just on the virtue of them playing up the bad leg in the Triple Threat. Maybe Bianca waits it out while Iyo takes on Asuka and then faces the winner, who will probably still be Iyo.

Solid promo from the #AlmightyProfits, though they haven’t given an official name. If Bianca were to join them on virtue of being married to Ford, they could take on The LWO, who now has the US Championship. A shame it wasn’t Escobar tonight, but Theory attacking him twice and taking him out of action so Rey could jump in makes me think this is them adjusting for what happened in the #1 contender’s match. Rey went down on a bit of a fluke moment or concussion scare, so they found a way to remove Escobar so Rey could get the title match and title win he was meant to have all along. Either way, great move to get the title off Theory, though he surely won’t got away so easily.

Really good match from Styles VS Kross, and it definitely did reference the previous match with all the antics from Scarlett. Mia countered her, of course, and Styles gets the win this time. Kinda hoping this is the end of it, as this feud never really went the same direction as Kross’ other feuds. Kross can either go after Rey again now that Rey is champ, or so can Styles since The OC also have the same faction formation as LWO and Almighty Profits. Good match and great promo from Knight as he beats Top Dolla, and boy does Michael Cole love razzing on Dolla from commentary. A little disappointed no Miz, but Knight’s promo jabbed at him so Miz will surely respond on Raw.

Great promo segment from Edge and Sheamus, especially because they were touching on real things that happened between them. I am also shocked that Sheamus VS Edge 1v1 never happened, but considering Edge’s nine years out overlaps with a lot of Sheamus’ 15 or so years in, I suppose something about that makes sense. They are going to have a great match, and I would think Edge wins that. Not sure where it’ll go from there, maybe Edge becomes an ally to The Brawling Brutes for something bigger, or… Kross goes after Edge? Kross’s whole theme is about time running out and such, maybe he’ll try to retire Edge for good.

And on top of the recap package and the constant plugging of “Hail to the Tribal Chief,” the Bloodline segment was an awesome closing segment. I knew Jimmy was gonna say what he did wasn’t for Roman, but I did not think he’d say he was saving Jey’s soul. That is a lot better motivation than what I was expecting, and he made sure to mention the jealousy angle was the wrong answer. But then Jey taking out everyone else was awesome and unexpected. Jey says he quits but that ain’t real, something is gonna happen where we get some sort of “Every Uce For Himself” match. Jey VS Jimmy VS Solo, maybe? Bloodline Fatal 4? That one might be asking for too much but what looked like a bad twist has been fixed, to a degree, and there seems to still be a lot of great story left to tell.

My Score: 8.8/10

WWE Evolve Championship Play-In Triple Threat: Jackson Drake VS Lince Dorado VS Jordan Oasis!

With just one spot left in the men’s Fatal 4 Way Elimination match, this is the only way any of these men is getting a golden opportunity! But will the Carolina Reaper represent the Vanity Project in the title match? Will the Golden Lynx’s return to WWE be truly golden? Or will the Nomad finally find a place to belong in Evolve’s title scene?

The bell rings and the three feel out knuckle locks. But Drake kicks Oasis, ROCKS Lince, then CHOPS Oasis! Drake CLUBS Lince, stomps away in the corner, but Oasis CLUBS Drake! Oasis back suplexes but Drake lands out. Drake RAMS low, TOSSES Oasis, and SNAP POWERSLAMS Lince! Drake goes to the apron, PENALTY KICKS Oasis, and he goes up the corner! Lince stands, into the AX HANDLE! Cover, Oasis CHOPS it apart! Oasis UPPERCUTS Drake, ROCKS him with a forearm, then whips him to ropes. Drake RANAS, but Oasis sunset flips through! Cover, Lince breaks it! Lince dumps Drake out then brings Oasis up.

Lince UPPERCUTS and CHOPS, then whips, only for Oasis to reverse, scoop, and BACKBREAKER! Oasis shoves Lince, and then goes Matrix with a twist to dodge Drake’s boot! CHOP BLOCK! The fans rally as Oasis gut wrenches for a GUT BUSTER! Drake sputters, Oasis covers, TWO! Drake toughs it out and Vanity coaches him up. Drake shoves Oasis but Oasis keeps on Drake with a forearm and a CHOP! Oasis whips corner to corner, Drake slides, Lince leaps to FLYING RANA Oasis! Drake CLUBS Lince, whips, but Lince reverses to SOBAT! KICK! Drake blocks a kick, FLIPS Lince, but Lince lands out! Oasis grabs Lince, but Lince dodges Drake, and Drake ROCKS Oasis!

Lince CHOPS Drake, CHOPS Oasis, but Drake kicks Lince! Oasis CHOPS Lince, he and Drake double whip, but Lince handsprings to DOUBLE STUNNER! Drake falls, Oasis wobbles, Lince hits a BACKSTABBER SENTON COMBO! Oasis tumbles away and Lince covers Drake, TWO! Drake is still in this and he goes for a corner. Lince runs corner to corner, but Drake dodges the cannonball! Drake then fireman’s carries Lince for a GUT BUSTER DROP! Lince staggers around, Drake BOOTS him out, and then he DIVES!

Drake has Oasis on the ropes, CHOPS him, but Oasis ROCKS Drake! Drake fires a forearm back but Oasis CLUBS Drake’s back. Oasis goes up but Drake GAMANGIRIS! Drake climbs, but Oasis fires body shots! Oasis adjusts his position, HEADBUTTS Drake down, then shakes that off. But Lince uses Drake to launch and DROPKICK Oasis! The fans fire up and Lince climbs up! SUPER DUPER STEINER!!

Drake is on the ropes, Oasis runs, BLACKOUT CANNONBALL!! Oasis snarls, covers, TWO!! Drake survives and flounders, but Oasis stays focused. Oasis runs in, Drake dodges the splash! UNALIVING!! Cover, Drake wins!

Winner: Jackson Drake, by pinfall (advances to the WWE Evolve Championship Fatal 4 Way)

Vanity Project celebrates with #HeartbreakDrake, though they did have a hand in the victory. Will Drake be the true Wild Card of that Fatal 4 Way Elimination match? Or will not even his friends help him survive Edris Enofe, Keanu Carver and “Super” Sean Legacy?

 

Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont talk backstage.

Ty & Ty are ready for their match tonight against Cappuccino Jones & Jack Cartwheel, but Tyson knows those two are the quickest and most exciting team on Evolve. Tyriek says sure, but they’re not the most explosive, that’s them! It’ll be speed VS power, and they’ll find out that it doesn’t matter how fast you’re going when you run into a brick wall. Cartwheel, Cappuccino, speed only beats power when you apply that pressure, and their pressure will knock you out! Ty & Ty are fired up now, will they bring down the house on Cappuccino & Cartwheel? Or will C & C be able to leap over that High Ryze?

 

It’s Gal speaks.

The Real-Life Action Figure is poolside as he says, “This is the life of It’s Gal! After my pool and gym routine, the abs are flexing, the quads are quading, the pecs, oh, they’re popping. And now, it’s time to catch some rays. But I can’t fully enjoy my fun in the sun because of this Gal wannabe, Troy Yearwood. Everyone in WWE Evolve says you have the body of an Adonis, the best physique in Evolve. Are they blind? Lemme tell you who has the best physique in Evolve. It’s Gal, it’s Gal, it’s Gal! Standing here at 5% body fat, looking like a million bucks right now.

“So Mr. All ACC hammer throw star, this is your first and final warning. You better stay outta my way, because when you’re in Mint Condition, there is no competition, dummy!” Gal may be 5% body fat but he’s 110% ego. Will he be humbled should he have a run-in with the LFG star?

 

Jackson Drake speaks.

Apparently the Carolina Reaper has still been in the ring this whole time…? He interrupts Robert Stone & Pete Rosenberg, and says the fans would rather here “Daddy” speak. “Week after week after week, myself, Zayda Steel, Bryce Donovan, Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes prove that the Vanity Project is the hottest thing going on WWE Evolve, in more ways than one!” Fans boo, but Drake says guess what? They’re just getting started! Because Drake will bring that drip to Vanity Project when he wins the WWE Evolve Championship! But wait, here comes Edris Enofe! The fans cheer as the Epitome of Excellence speaks now.

“Mr. Drake, Mr. Drake. Hey, Mr. Drake, Mr. Drake, Mr. Drake. I just find it funny… Actually, I find it hilarious that you can stand there and call yourself the hottest thing going on Evolve, especially when you got a guy like me, the EOE, the Epitome of Excellence, standing here right now!” The fans cheer on “E O E! E O E!” and Drake mockingly applauds. Edris says next week, that is a moment he has been waiting for, for a very, very long time. The fans know that he has worked his ass off, grinding for four years, to let this slip through his fingers! So if Drake wants that title, well bad news. Drake goes home empty handed, as that title goes around the waist of Edris Enofe!

Wait, here comes “Super Sean!” Sean Legacy has his own mic to say okay, okay. A couple weeks ago, Vanity Project wanted Lexis King to make sure Legacy didn’t compete in the Fatal 4 Way. And Legacy will make no excuses, Lexis King was the better man that night. But as you can see, Legacy is still standing! The fans cheer that, and Legacy joins the others in the ring. Legacy tells Edris that he respects the journey, and Edris coming back from injury. Four YEARS of grind, but Legacy has been at it for EIGHT! Legacy has been working his way up the food chain to create his legacy. And that starts now!

Because next week, the person standing with THE WWE Evolve Championship above his head will be Legacy. Because he will show the WWE Universe why Sean Legacy will always be SUPER! Drake says yeah, yeah, well, he’s super tired of listening to them. Drake says neither of them are qualified, there is nobody in this match qualified like Drake. Drake drops the mic, exits the ring, but bumps into Keanu Carver! Drake forgot about the big man, and then he finds himself surrounded! Edris ROCKS Drake, Legacy ROCKS Drake, and Keanu DECKS Drake! Refs rush out to stop it here, but all four men will be let loose next week! Who will be the last one standing with the title?

 

Backstage interview with Cappuccino Jones & Jack Cartwheel.

Chuey Martinez is with the most energetic team in Evolve, and says tonight, they go up against a pair of powerhouses. How will they handle that beef? Jones says the pot is hot and extra large. But you can’t hit what you can’t catch. Jack says it is their speed against Ty & Ty’s power. But it is simple physics of momentum and leverage. They can stick ‘n’ move! They’ve got a triple shot of energy ready to hit Tyriek & Tyson in the mouth. Cappuccino & Cartwheel are gonna turn Evolve on its head! They are fired up now and head out, will they be able to blow right past the High Ryze? Or will they get blown up by that TNT?

 

Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont VS Cappuccino Jones & Jack Cartwheel!

Evolve returns as the teams make their entrance. The teams sort out and Cartwheel starts against Tyriek. Tyriek pokes fun at Jack’s height, then they tie up. Tyriek shoves Jack down, but Jack kips back up! The fans cheer, the two tie up again, and Tyriek shoves, but Jack cartwheels through! Jack then cartwheels to dodge and Tyriek hits buckles! Jack RAMS shoulders again and again, but Tyriek ROCKS Jack! Tyriek tags Tyson, then feeds Jack to the SIDEWALK SLAM! Tyson taunts Cappuccino, runs up on Jack, but Jack dodges! Tyson hits buckles and Jack headlocks. Tyson powers out, Jones tags in! Jack trips Tyson and Jones basement DROPKICKS!

Cappuccino & Cartwheel DOUBLE LARIAT Tyson out of the ring! Then they build speed, but Wes Lee is here! He gets his guys together to talk this out. Ty & Ty refocus and go back to the ring. Tyriek distracts so Tyson can CLOBBER Cappuccino Jones! Tyson rains down fists, and he tags in Tyriek. Feed to the scoop and the SLAM! Tyriek talks smack on Jack, stomps Jones down, then stands on him! Tyrike pulls Jones’ hair, Wes likes what he sees, but the ref reprimands. The fans rally for Jones as Tyriek lets off. Jones rises to fire hands! Tyriek KNEES low, whips him to the corner, and he RAMS Jones!

Tyson tags in, he runs up, and he SPLASHES Jones! The fans boo but Tyriek tags back in. Tyriek takes off his belt, runs up, but Jones dodges! Tyriek POSTS himself and knocks Tyson down at the same time! Jones rolls Tyriek up, TWO!! ENZIGIRI! Tyriek sputters, Jones crawls, and the fans rally up! Tyriek swings, misses, hot tag to Jack! Jack dodges Tyriek, BLASTS Tyson, then cartwheels to LARIAT! And tilt-o-whirl RANA! Handspring and BACK ELBOW! Jack reels Tyriek in, KICKS Tyson and TORNADO DDTS in one go! Jack then handsprings to FOSBURY FLOP! Down goes Tyson, and Jack hurries up top!

Wes is annoyed as Jack FLYING CARTWHEELS! Cover, Tyson breaks it! Jones is up and he ROCKS Tyson! Jack SUPERKICKS Tyson, then he and Jones DOUBLE DROPKICK! Tyson flops out, Tyriek runs up, and Jack rolls Jones out of the way! The BOOT hits Jack! Tyson drags Jones out of the ring to UPPERCUT! Tyriek facelocks Jack, tags Tyson, and then the SLAM DUNK SAIDO!! Cover, Ty & Ty win!

Winners: Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont, by pinfall

It went down just as they said, T&T blows up C&C! Will NXT and Evolve soon belong to the High Ryze?

 

Stevie Turner signs a new star to the roster!

The Prime Minister assures the new recruit that Evolve is the most exciting, fastest growing brand. She welcomes Jin Tala to the already deep women’s roster. Jin thanks Stevie for this opportunity, and is ready to shake up the women’s division. Stevie says she looks forward to it. Jin signs on the dotted line, but now Carlee Bright walks in. Carlee heard Stevie wanted to meet with her, and Stevie says yes. We all know Carlee is Kendal’s best friend, but tonight, there needs to be on one else ringside. This Fatal 4 Way has to be just about the four in the match.

Carlee says she gets it, that is absolutely fair. Stevie also helps make introductions between Carlee and Jin, and says they will be opponents on next week’s episode. Carlee and Jin shake hands, and Carlee says, “May the best woman win.” Will Jin prove she’s ready to Evolve?

 

Natalya is backstage!

Evolve Media catches up with the Queen of Harts, and asks what The BOAT is doing here. Natty says she’s going to be not only watching tonight’s main event title match, but she will have the honor of presenting the WWE Women’s Evolve Championship to the winner. It is a very cool moment, she is excited to be here, this is going to be a wonderful night. Natty heads out, who will she have the honor of handing the title to?

 

High Ryze regroups backstage.

Wes says that is what he is talking about! Tyriek says that’s what they told everyone earlier! Power beats speed, every time! Tyson says you gotta admit, though. Jones & Jack are fast. But when you train with the fastest, those boys don’t stand a chance. Wes says they’re making him blush. But his boys have been making a ruckus here on Evolve, so he had to turn up and see what all the noise was about. Jones & Cartwheel have potential. But potential doesn’t measure up here. Tyson says they haven’t heard the last of Jones & Cartwheel, but Wes says that’s fine, they can come see him about it. The High Ryze is feeling good, but will Wes put a punctuation on what we saw tonight?

 

WWE Women’s Evolve Championship Fatal 4 Way Elimination Match: Kali Armstrong VS Kendal Grey VS Wendy Choo VS Kylie Rae!

This is the moment of truth! Three months ago, WWE brought Evolve into the fold, and this new generation of superstars began their journey. These four standouts now stand across from each other, and only the last one left will become a champion! Will it be The Difference Maker, Grappler Grey, Wicked Wendy, or Smiley Kylie that is crowned the INAUGURAL WWE Evolve Women’s Champion?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who has their moment!

The bell rings and the fans rally. Kali RAMS Kendal, Kylie and Wendy brawl, and Kendal comes back to TACKLE Kali! Kylie and Wendy scrap all the way to the outside while Kendal fires shots on Kali in the corner. Kali shoves Kendal, CLOBBERS Kendal, then builds speed, but Wendy trips her up! Wendy drags Kali out, now Kali brawls with Wendy and Kylie, but Kendal builds speed! Kendal DIVES onto all three! The fans fire up and Kendal shoves Kylie into the ring. Kendal KNEES Kylie down, covers, TWO! Kali is back and ROCKS Kendal! Kali BOOTS Kylie, whips Kendal, but Kendal goes up! Kylie ROCKS Kali and Kendal CROSSBODIES onto Kylie! Cover, TWO!

The fans rally, Kali DOUBLE LARIATS Kylie & Kendal! Kali drags Kylie up to kick low and back suplex! Kali ROCKS Kendal, and gives her a back suplex, only for Kendal to land out! Kendal waistlocks Kali, Wendy waistlocks Kylie, they RAM Kendal and Kylie into each other! Stereo O’Conner Rolls! The ref counts both, TWO! Kendal CROSSBODIES Wendy! Cover, TWO! Kylie covers Wendy, TWO! Kali covers Wendy, TWO! Wendy LARIATS Kendal! Wendy snarls, Kylie & Kali double kick and double suplex! Wendy DOUBLE CRADLES! TWO!! Kali & Kylie escape, Kendal ROCKS Wendy! Kali BOOTS Wendy! Kylie DECKS Wendy!

Wendy just rises and the fans go nuts! Wendy fires off hands on everybody! Wendy cravats Kali and Kylie, BOOTS Kendal, and uses that to DOUBLE SLICED BREAD! The fans fire up and Wendy runs in at Kendal! Handspring FOREARM! GAMANGIRI for Kali! But Kylie puts Wendy on the apron! Wendy UPPERCUTS Kylie, goes up, and CROSSBODIES! Kylie gets free, Kendal CLOBBERS Wendy! KALI CONNECTION!! Wendy still rises?! Kylie SUPERKICKS her down! Cover, Kylie ELIMINATES Wendy!! A team effort gives Kylie a semblance of revenge and the fans cheer. Kylie sees the others rising up, and Evolve goes to break.

Evolve returns and Kali has Kendal in a corner for stomps! The ref counts, Kali lets off, and she runs up on Kylie. Kylie puts her in the corner, SPLASHES, then sits Kali down. Kylie runs and CANNONBALLS! Kylie keeps moving and CANNONBALLS Kendal! The fans rally, Kylie covers, TWO! Kendal toughs it out but Kylie hurries to bring her in. Kali runs up, Kylie dodges, and then she and Kendal double mule kick! They work together, but Kali blocks the double suplex to DOUBLE SUPLEX! The fans fire up and Kali is on Kylie. Kali puts her in a corner, then puts Kendal in another. Kali RAMS Kendal, RAMS Kylie, but then Kendal KNEES Kali!

Kali still comes back but Kendal BOOTS her down! Kendal climbs but Kylie CLUBS Kendal! Kylie climbs up, Kendal fights the suplex, but Kali Electric Chair Lifts! Kylie victory rolls it, TWO! Kendal QUEBRADAS! Double cover, TWO!! Kylie and Kali survives, but Kendal waits in them. Kendal rallies with a LARIAT for Kali and an ELBOW for Kylie! Fireman’s carry takeover after takeover, and Kendal whips Kylie. Kylie reveres but Kendal goes up to FLYING SHOULDER! Kali is up, Kendal dodges, OVERHEAD BELLY2BELLY! The fans fire up, the straps come down, and Kendal wrenches Kali to the ARMBAR TAKEDOWN!

The fans fire up as Kali endures! Kali clasps hands, but Kendal pries those apart! Kylie ghost pins Kendal, AND ELIMINATES HER!! Everyone is shocked, even Kylie! But now it comes down to the veteran from the indies and the rising star from Inglewood! Kylie covers, TWO, but she rains down fists! Kylie covers, TWO! Kylie stomps away on Kali, covers again, TWO! Kali is still in this but Kylie roars! Kylie storms up but Kali fires body shots. Kali kicks low, reels Kylie in, and Kali suplexes, but Kylie slips free! SOBAT, Kylie runs, CRUCIFIX DRIVER! Cover, TWO!! Kali survives but Kylie just goes up top!

Kali staggers around, but she springs up to get Kylie! SUPER BELLY2BELLY! The fans fire up as Kali builds speed, for the KALI CON- NO! Kylie has the CROSSFACE!!! Kylie has Kali down and the fans are thunderous! Kali fights around, reaches out, and she powers up! Kali fireman’s carries and the fans cheer! Kylie slips free, shoves, but Kali blocks the kick to whip! Scoop and POWER- CRADLE!! TWO!! Kali escapes, but Kylie has the CROSSFACE! Roll to a cover, TWO! Kylie is up, Kali scoops her again, POWERSLAM! The fans rally up and Kali roars! Kali builds speed, for the KALI CONNECTION!!! Kali covers, KALI WINS!

Winner: Kali Armstrong, by pinfall (INAUGURAL WWE Evolve Women’s Champion)

The Difference Maker promised everyone that her name would go down in the history books, and that promise has been fulfilled! Natalya brings the belt to Kali, but Kali kinda snatches it away with some attitude. Kali wants to be an inspiration but she’s got a bit of an ego, will she simply just get hers #StraightLikeThat and leave everyone else in the dust?


My Thoughts:

A great Evolve here, even with expected outcomes. I will say they surprised me by making the final two Kali and Kylie, not Kali and Kendal, who have had their rivalry going since episode one. But perhaps Kendal will be Kali’s first challenger to really add to the feud. Kylie and Wendy also aren’t done, even with Kylie pinning Wendy to eliminate her. In fact, that’s wild that Kylie did the work of eliminating the others for Kali to win out… But at the same time, Kylie and Wendy can feud, maybe name the winner of the blowoff a contender, as well.

Very good tag match stuff with The High Ryze VS Cappuccino & Cartwheel, and I like Wes showing up to support his guys. Wes VS Cartwheel will be awesome stuff, as well as Wes VS Cappuccino, and I suppose a third man might present himself so that we get a Six Man Tag for the full High Ryze faction to be in action together. Good promo from It’s Gal, and obviously a match of Gal VS Yearwood is coming. Gal is definitely the Heel who gets humbled, so Yearwood will get a great win. And good seeing more LFG stars signing up with Evolve, Jin Tala (Leigh Laurel from LFG) will have a good match with Carlee and certainly a good win.

Very good Triple Threat from Drake, Dorado and Oasis, and I figured Drake would win to join the Fatal 4 Way. Vanity Project needs somebody in that match if they’re to start dominating Evolve like they claim. But at the same time, very fitting that Drake gets humbled a bit by the other three contenders. That Fatal 4 is a bit harder to read, but Edris sadly feels like the fourth likely. His recovery and return makes a great story, but it just seems too soon for him to grab that title. Meanwhile, Keanu is just a beast, he’d be a fitting parallel to Kali as she’s a powerhouse of a first champion. And Super Sean has a North American Championship match, it’d be fitting to make it Champion VS Champion.

My Score: 8.8/10
