PLAY BY PLAY
Wes Lee speaks.
“I was determined to add more to truly solidify my legacy as the greatest North American Champion in NXT history. But in the process, I spread myself too thin, and it came at a cost.” December of 2023, Wes had to tell the fans that he was in pain just standing there. He needed surgery and time. He had three ruptured disks, affecting two different nerves, causing that pain and muscle atrophy. It took a three hour surgery, affecting his L3, L4 and L5 disks. He should’ve heeded the warnings before. He flew too close to the sun, crashed and burned, but has now risen from the ashes. The King of the Wes Side has returned to NXT, and it is time to get back to work!
The roster watches that video.
They applaud as Wes heads for gorilla position, and says he missed this. “It feels good to be home. I’ve got one goal in mind, though.” Wes is ready, will this phoenix soar to those same heights as before? Or maybe even higher?

The NXT Tag Division talks last week.
Hank ‘n’ Tank, as well as Tyriek & Tyson, tell Axiom & Nathan Frazer that it was phenomenal! Their title defense shows why they are the champs. These other teams are just getting going, but seeing Axiom & Frazer out there has motivated them to one day be champions. But then No Quarter Catch Crew walks in and Damon Kemp can’t believe what he’s hearing. Ty & Ty just got here, and they already have championship aspirations? How’s that supposed to work out? Charlie Dempsey says it is funny, considering Ty & Ty lost their debut match. Tyson has them hold on. Ain’t no shame to losing to the Good Brothers. Those guys are vets.
But see, the scary thing is, Ty & Ty are only gonna get better, and more comfortable. Well, a bit of advice: you step into the ring with the NQCC, you don’t feel comfort, just pain. Well, they ain’t afraid of pain. They can take it, and dish it out. Things get heated, Hank ‘n’ Tank keep thing from turning into a fight, and these teams all head out. Will the NQCC be the ones watching out for the #TYgers on the hunt? Meanwhile, the Good Brothers do walk in, and Luke Gallows says wowski! Check this pair little good brothers right here. Karl Anderson says yes, they handled business, got rid of the Raw & SmackDown teams. If that’s not just Too Sweet, then he doesn’t know what is.
Gallows & Anderson offer the Too Sweet, Frazer & Axiom say they’re good. The champs head out, and Gallows says why those two “brothers” are gonna lose. No look Too Sweet, but will Big LG & The Machine Gun be the ones to take them down?
Shayna Baszler w/ Lola Vice VS Karmen Petrovic w/ Natalya!
The Queen of Spades was certainly the ace up the sleeve of #MiamiVice, as she used the #CanadianConnection against the Queen of Harts! Will Karmen get vengeance with her own two hands? Or will Shayna still have the upper hand this close to Battleground: Las Vegas?
NXT returns and Karmen makes her entrance, sword on her shoulder and Natty by her side. The bell rings and the two circle. The fans rally but Shayna doesn’t sweat the real-life Beatrix Kiddo. Karmen almost gets her with a kick, though! Shayna uses ropes as a defense and Karmen backs off, then Shayna storms up to tie up collar ‘n’ elbow. Shayna puts Karmen in a corner, smothers her face, but lets off as the ref counts. Karmen storms up, Shayna gets around and waistlocks to SLAM! Shayna drags Karmen back up, but Karmen breaks free to ROUNDHOUSE! Shayna bails out, Lola checks on her, but Karmen storms out after her!
Shayna ROCKS Karmen, then brings the apron skirt up. Shayna wrenches Karmen’s arm, put sit through the gap, and KICKS it! Karmen writhes, Natty is worried, but Shayna puts Karmen in the ring. Shayna wrenches the arm, hammerlocks it, then RAMS Karmen into buckles! The fans are torn but Shayna dusts herself off. Shayna storms up in a corner, wrenches Karmen’s arm around ropes, then pulls!

Karmen roars, runs in at the corner, and HOOK KICKS! Karmen goes around the world, Shayna runs up, but Karmen LEG SWEEPS! LION’S BARRAGE! Cover, TWO! Shayna is still in this but so is Karmen!

Winner: Shayna Baszler, by submission
Shayna lets off and Natty gets in to check on her friend. Lola celebrates with Shayna though really celebrates herself. NXT Combine aside, will Karmen be out of luck when it comes to the NXT Women’s North American Championship ladder match?
Superstars in the Women’s Locker Room watch replay of last week.
Specifically, Fallon Henley losing her cool and turning on Thea Hail. Kelani Jordan still doesn’t understand why. If Fallon had a problem, she could’ve talked to someone about it. Seriously, what kind of friend does that? It took Kelani everything she had to not just smack Fallon during the combine. Fallon walks in and says if Kelani feels that way, why didn’t she? Because Kelani thought they were friends. Oh, see, that’s the problem. Fallon has spent her entire career helping friends. From here on out, Fallon Comes First. She doesn’t need friends to become the FIRST Women’s North American Champion. And for that, she just needs Ava to tell her she qualified.
Kelani says what happened to Fallon! The argument gets heated, the others step in the way, and clearly things are about to explode! Those combine results are coming up next, who has qualified for the golden opportunity?
The NXT Combine results are in!
20 women competed over Backlash weekend, all with one goal in mind: finish in the top 12, then win their way to the NXT Women’s North American Championship Ladder Match at Battleground! Nine grueling events tested four sections: speed; power; strength; and conditioning. We get some highlights here, such as in the 10-yard sled push, the 10-yard sprint, and the in-ring shuttle drill. After all, hitting ropes takes speed and precision. Our early leaders were Thea Hail and Kelani Jordan. We’ll have more highlights for the Power section later tonight.
No Quarter Catch Crew VS Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont!
The confrontation from earlier has now been turned into a match, player! Who will #HollaHolla at a higher place in the NXT Tag Division rankings?
For that matter, the #CatchClause is in effect, so who is stepping up? It’s Myles Borne & Charlie Dempsey, but uh… Where’s the ref? The announcement is given that the ref scheduled for this match is “unavailable.” Alicia Taylor glances over at Luca Crusifino and some of Tony D’Angelo’s cousins… But now, the special guest referee for this match will be… CHANNING LORENZO! Stacks is getting in on this? Did The Don work out some kind of deal to stick it to the NQCC? Stacks shows off his nice new referee shirt, and he tells everybody to sort it out. Myles starts against Tyriek, the bell rings, and the match is on!
Myles and Tyriek tie up, Tyriek puts Myles in a corner, but Myles turns it around. Stacks counts the ropebreak, and counts real fast! Myles gets mad, but Tyriek get shim in a headlock! Tag to Tyson, UPPERCUT, BODY SHOT, CHOP BLOCK and BOOT! Tyson then runs to SPLASH! Cover, and it’s a fast count! Myles still gets out at TWO, then he DECKS Tyson!

Tag back to Tyriek, and Tyson wrenches Dempsey. Tyriek goes up to AX HANDLE! Tyriek then runs to run Dempsey over! Cover, TWO!
Tyriek keeps on Dempsey but Dempsey wrenches and knees low. Dempsey brings Tyriek back while Stacks is busy checking with Tyson on something. That makes Stacks miss the tag by Myles!

Winners: Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont, by pinfall
NQCC is furious over the shenanigans, but The Don abides! Is this going to force the issue and make NQCC pay up?
Arianna Grace and Gigi Dolin are backstage with Chelsea Green.
The Pageant Queen says O M Goodness, she cannot describe how fabulous it is to have Chelsea here. Chelsea says this is a dream come true! The thought, the possibility, of Chelsea becoming the NEW NXT Women’s Champion warms Arianna’s heart! Chelsea says exactly. She has been through so many nasty locker rooms and trashy cities, having dealt with Awful Adam and Sir Nicholas the Prickliest. Chelsea is so happy to have found someone almost as perfect as her, and she’s a beauty pageant queen to boot! Do go on, she won’t stop you. The two are all giggly, but Arianna says in all seriousness, Chelsea has to win that title.
Chelsea says she will. For every little girl out there! For every future pageant princess! For the entire locker room! And herself. And for “Giorgina” as they guide her along her journey. Wait, “they?” Arianna says she must go, she has a “Michin problem” to deal with. But Arianna will be back victorious. Bye~! Arianna heads out and Gigi says she cannot take this! She is DONE! Is Gigi gonna take this up with management a la the Hot Mess?
Backstage interview with Roxanne Perez.
Kelly Kincaid is with The Prodigy as she points out tonight’s title defense against Chelsea Green. In a match Ava just threw together, Roxie points out. But this isn’t about Ava, and it isn’t even about Chelsea. Tonight is about Roxie! When you’re the face of the brand, when you’re a TWO-TIME NXT Women’s Champion, and when you’re the main event, there’s a name for that: The Prodigy. And no one likes Chelsea on Raw, or on SmackDown, and Roxie sure doesn’t like Chelsea here. This is NXT. Roxie sent Tatum and Lyra packing, and she’ll do the same to Chelsea. Then whoever is after that, you’ll just hear the same thing: #AndStill.
Roxie is confident, but also clinging to her title. Is Roxie’s body language betraying her poker face this close to Battleground in Vegas?
Mia Yim VS Arianna Grace!
The Head Baddie in Charge is back because she wants to be part of that historic Women’s North American Championship match! The combine results are still being worked out, but will a win go a long way in earning a spot?
NXT returns and Arianna makes her entrance. The bell rings and the fans rally for Mia. Arianna says violence is NOT the answer! But then Mia takes that accusing finger and bends it! Mia asks what was that? Arianna stomps a foot, but then Mia stomps a foot back! Then stomps the other foot! Then she ROCKS Arianna in a corner! And ROUNDHOUSES her down! Then DROPKICKS her!

Mia kicks around, rolls to stack Arianna, TWO! Arianna holds on, Mia fights up again, another stack! TWO, and Mia deadlifts Arianna, to POWERBOMB her down! The fans fire up while Mia shakes her arm out. Arianna flounders, stands up, but Mia CLOBBERS her!
Mia YAKUZA KICKS, then SHOTGUNS Arianna down! Arianna goes to a corner, the fans fire up for Mia, and Mia runs up to BOOT! Mia brings Arianna around to bump off buckles, then she goes corner to corner again. But Arianna puts her on the apron! Mia RAMS into Arianna, slingshots up and over to sunset flip, but Arianna sit son it! She holds ropes! The ref sees that and says no good! Mia sunset flips, TWO!! Arianna is upset with the ref, but Mia waistlocks to GERMAN SUPLEX! Arianna staggers up, into EAT DA FEET! Cover, Mia wins!
Winner: Mia Yim, by pinfall
That Michin problem was more than Arianna count handle! Will all of NXT have that same “problem” should Mia get into the ladder match?
Thea Hail talks with Ridge Holland.
She thanks him for checking up on her last week. He says don’t worry, it’s been a rough couple of weeks for her. And trust him, he knows that feeling. Anger, frustration, it all builds up. And for Fallon to- Yes! It’s so nice to talk with someone who knows what she’s feeling! Mr. Chase has tried to calm her down, but no one thinks she makes sense just because of how young she is. Ridge says Thea makes a lot of sense. Oh, good. And Ridge has a daughter that reminds him of her. When she grows up, he hopes she’ll have half the passion Thea does. Thanks! Chase, Duke & Riley walk in, they high-five her and congratulate her on that big revenge win over Jacy Jayne.
Thanks! Thea was just talking with Ridge about it. He’s so easy to talk to! But then in walks Lexis King, saying, “Blah blah blah blah blah. What is this? Some sort of terrible Lifetime movie?” Lexis tells them that the business isn’t for everyone. If Ridge is trying to scrape wins together, why is he talking to these losers? Thea tells Lexis to shut up and stop! Lexis then brings up Ridge’s daughter, and Ridge stands up. Ridge tells Lexis to step off. Duke steps in and tells Lexis that he is nothing more than a pompous, narcissistic, egotistical haircut. He has no right talking to anyone that way. Oh, big Dookie saving the day! Typical Chase U white knight.
But Lexis tells Duke that he just pissed off the King. Lexis storms off, Thea says that’s so~ terrifying. Mr. Chase tells Ridge that at Chase U, they’ve always got each other’s back. Will Yorkshire Grit find some new friends with the black ‘n’ red? Will The Drama King look to make them all bow before him?
It’s an all new Supernova Sessions!
Noam Dar says, “Hello, hello, hello! Hear me now! Welcome to another edition of Supernova Sessions live in the U S of AAAA~!” Dar then says the Oxford dictionary defines the word “Trick” as a skillful act or scheme designed to outwit someone. Well, with that said, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome tonight’s guest- Lash says SKRR SKRR, this is a very special guest. Ooh~! Dar says fine, the very special guest, THE NXT Champion, Trick Williams. Jakara doesn’t get what’s with Lash but Lash says you show the champ respect! The fans chant “WHOOP DAT TRICK!” as Trick Willy makes his way to the ring.
Trick gets the mic to say “WHOOOOO~ OOH~!” Dar has everyone settle down and take their seats. Meta Four squish in on the couch while Trick gets the armchair. Dar says things are going well for Trick. It must be nice to be Trick. Oro says yes, very nice. Trick says talk yo’ talk. Then on that point, they’ve got a special video package to show Trick’s historic rise. Watch! From WWE HQ in Stamford, Connecticut, Trick’s special visit to be part of The Bump and see his poster. Trick relates a story from just under a year ago: HBK told him, many people ask for the ball but they’re not ready for the ball and have to be on the bench. It’s good to have people like HBK in your corner.
There are people who really do want to see others succeed, and it is crazy to be in this new era. Trick vows to put the brand on his back, The #TrickEra begins, that’s all it is, that’s all it’s gonna be. Tell your friends ’bout it! The fans like that video, as does Trick. Let’s talk about it! Yes, of course! That’s the whole point! They’re literally on a talk show! Lash tells Dar to stop being rude. Dar and Oro do the secret handshake but Trick says Oro’s laughing too hard. He isn’t here for games, he is here for one reason and one reason only: that manila envelope! Let’s open it up and get to it! Dar tells Trick to calm down, this is Dar’s show.
The fans chant, “Who’s The Daddy?” and Dar says stop, this is his show! But Lash, please, exhibit A. Lash says okay, it is finally time to reveal “the truth.” Lash opens the envelope slowly but Jakara tells her to snap out of it already. Lash says okay, hold on, she’s gonna open it! The picture is also put on the tron. Dar’s foot is under the ropes when Trick pinned him! Dar wants us all to understand, Trick’s false victory is what gave him the momentum to go on and slay The Mad Dragon to become the new NXT Champion. Fans point out Dar still lost, but Dar says this is proof that everything Trick has was built on a lie!
Dar wants Trick to know he is nothing but a no good trick! And Dar is going to expose him! Dar says Trick’s a con man! Trick stands up to get in Dar’s face. Is that all? Really? They brought him out for a picture? Oro explains that Dar didn’t really lose! Trick’s reign is a fraud! Trick asks what is wrong with Oro. Does he not speak good English? He eatin’ dog food or something? Does Trick need to smack him all the way back to “The Motherland?” Trick question! Now, Dar, if you wanted a match, all you had to do was ask. Trick’s got no problems smacking that man bun off his head! Just say the word.
Dar says Trick’s got jokes, but he’s still not getting the reality! Trick says he isn’t here to play games. Trick ain’t with that! Lash actin’ like this is Maury! By the way, Trick AIN’T the daddy! OHH~! Dar asks what’s that supposed to mean! Lash plays innocent, but Trick asks if Lash wants to tell him, or if he should. Wait, whoa, what?! Timeout! Lash…! Lash is flustered, and says “Babe! I MEAN-” UH OH! UH OH! Lash tells Trick this isn’t the time or the place! Trick says yes it is! Check it, there’s nothing to be scared about. This is about them right now. Just tell the people that Lash calls him… “Trick Willy Wonka.” OH~!
Lash says she can’t do this, but Trick holds her close. Lash says no, this isn’t the time or the place. But then Dar SPINNING ELBOWS Trick down!! The fans boo as Supernova strikes first! Lash asks what was that for, but Dar glares at her like she betrayed him. Dar takes the belt off Trick, looks it over with a smile, and holds it up. The fun and games really are over, but who wins when these two play for keeps?
More of the NXT Women’s Combine results are in!
The Power rounds were all about the Vertical Jump, the Broad Jump, and the Rotational Punch, all the test the explosive power in the legs, as well as balance and precision. And needless to say, everyone packs a punch! But in the end, Mia Yim blew everyone away, showing why she’s in The OC. But another woman dominated overall, and it was Jaida Parker! Make it or break it was coming, we’ll get the Strength portion later tonight.
Someone’s snoozing.
But surely, they’ll wake up soon. Will they make NXT feel comfy again?
Karmen and Natty regroup backstage.
Karmen apologizes for how things went down the last two weeks. Natty’s taken her under her wing, but Karmen’s just letting her down! Natty says don’t get down about that. Whether you’ve been here 17 years or just one, this is part of the process. It’s about finding your edge. Wait, what? Well, in karate, it’s self-defense. But in wrestling, it’s offense. It’s about being the aggressor. A prospect walks by and tells Natty that her NXT Underground match was sick! She thanks him for that, and they move on. Okay, right, aggressor. Another prospect tells Karmen not to worry about her loss. In the end, she’s still a smoke show!
Karmen smiles at the guy, then ROUNDHOUSES him down! Natty says now she gets it. More of that. Will Karmen sharpen that edge so that she can finally carve a path to the top?
Kelani Jordan VS Fallon Henley
We’ve been seeing how everyone stacks up in the combine, but this is about bringing it in the ring. Will the Gym Princess prove she’s worthy of that golden opportunity? Or will The Cowgirl make herself into an outlaw if it means getting what she wants?

Winner: Fallon Henley, by pinfall
Fallon shows off her new edge as she plays by her own rules! Will this outlaw practically steal that NXT Women’s North American Championship?
No Quarter Catch Crew regroups backstage.
Dempsey snarls as he holds up the Heritage Cup. He tells Tony D, if he wants the match so bad, then fine! Tony gets what he wants, but he will regret it. Tony may be The Don, but when it comes to the cup, the NQCC has all the power! And that power lies within The Catch Clause. Study up all you want, Tony, it means nothing! The clause says it could be Dempsey, it could be Kemp, or it could be Kemp. Find out next week. How does it feel to hold none of the power?
The Women’s Combine continues!
The Strength round would be a make or break round, as the Overhead Medicine Ball Throw tested overall explosive strength output. This was dominated by none other than Lash Legend! She showed up, showed out, and threw that ball 37 inches! Wren Sinclair was a dark horse surprise in this aspect, could she make some ground? Then there was the Iso Mid Thigh Pull. Go after the bar as hard as you could for maximum output! Mia again impressed, but Izzi Dame got herself some major points.
And lastly, Conditioning! It was a gauntlet of various drills to test endurance and stamina! The Pitbull, Ivy Nile, proved she is levels above! After giving their all, which 12 made the cut for the qualifying matches? We find out, later tonight!
Backstage interview with Ava Raine.
Kelly Kincaid is with the NXT General Manager, and says after seeing the highlights, who made the Top 12? Ava says all 20 that competed were amazing, and showed why the WWE Women’s Division is untouchable. But to the point, the 12 names are right here! In order from first place to 12th, it’s: Sol Ruca! Thea Hail! Jaida Parker! Brinley Reece! Michin! Fallon Henley! Lash Legend! Ivy Nile! Izzi Dame! Kelani Jordan! Tatum Paxley! And… Wren Sinclair! Those qualifying matches start next week, who will then take fate into their own hands and head for Las Vegas?
Lexis King VS Duke Hudson w/ Chase U!
The Drama King talked trash on “Dookie” and the whole Chase U family, but will he have to eat those words? Or can he take down the Chase U MVP and prove he is worthy of gold?
NXT returns as Duke makes his entrance, Chase U following behind. The bell rings and King kicks low! Lexis fires hands, has Duke in a corner, but Duke turns things around to fire back! The fans fire up as Duke ROCKS Lexis again and again, but lets off as the ref counts. Duke stands Lexis back up, but Lexis avoid the chop to CHOP, and CHOP, and CHOP! Duke just gets mad! Duke fires body shots on Lexis, then swings again! Lexis dodges, CHOPS, CLUBS, and then throws Duke’s headband away! Thea picks it up to put it on but Lexis whips Duke away. Duke comes back to LARIAT! The fans fire up as Duke then scoops and SLAMS Lexis!
Duke drags Lexis back up, whips him to ropes, then scoops for a SIDEWALK SLAM! Cover, TWO! Lexis is still in this, but Duke sees him go to a corner. Duke storms up, swings, but Lexis dodge! But then Duke dodges to CHOP! The fans fire up and Duke holds up the U. DOUBLE CHOP!! Lexis looks like his soul is leaving him! Lexis says this is Thea’s fault! Duke drags Lexis up, then TOSSES him away! The fans fire up as Duke brings Lexis back up and back in, to suplex high and hard! The student section is loving it as Duke drags Lexis from the ropes. Lexis kicks at Duke, sends him away, but Duke just gets mad!
Duke storms up, but Lexis YANKS him into ropes! Then Lexis CLUBS Duke, has him in a corner, and snapmares Duke for an elbow drop! And another! And then a stomp! Lexis steps on Duke’s face, covers, TWO! Lexis brings Duke around, but Duke shoves him back. Lexis CHOPS, CHOPS and digs his boots in! The ref counts, Lexis lets off at 4, and Duke staggers away. Lexis talks trash, runs up, but into an ELBOW! Lexis comes back, but is sent into buckles! Lexis still stays after Duke, but Duke goes up and over to sunset flip! TWO, but Duke throws body shots! Duke UPPERCUTS, then whips Lexis, but Lexis KICKs back!
Lexis runs to CHOP BLOCK! The fans boo as Lexis says Hail to the King! BLINDSIDER!! Lexis argues with Thea now, then backs off as Chase storms over. Now Ridge storms out here! He has a chair! Lexis runs away into the ring, but Duke DECKS him! Ridge wants to get in the ring but Chase says no! Duke wants the chair, but the ref says no! Lexis SUPERKICKS outta nowhere! Cross arms, and CORONATION!! Cover, Lexis wins!!
Winner: Lexis King, by pinfall
The King trumps The Duke, and Ridge realizes he messed it all up! What is Ridge to do with his bad temper? What is going to happen as Lexis’ ego just keeps inflating?
NXT Media catches up with The Meta Four.
They wanna ask what happened out there, and Dar says Trick got his lights put out, duh! Then where’s Lash? Pfft, next question. They head out, but then Je’Von Evans walks over. He says it’s all good, but he didn’t like how they played his boy, Trick Willy. Oro tells Evans to move but Evans tells Oro to chill. Evans isn’t trying to get into their business- Dar says he couldn’t if he tried! What’s the point of this? Evans gets heated, as does Oro, but Dar and Jakara have Oro stand down. Dar says he gets it. Evans is the shiny new toy around here. But there is no quicker way to stunt your growth than to step to Supernova 11. Especially right now.
And if you don’t believe him, go as Trick, when he wakes up. Check please, buh-bye. The Meta Three head out, but will Evans find a way to put them in their place?
Jazmyn Nyx speaks.
“Thea Hail comes off as ‘that girl next door,’ right? Filled with all that spunk and energy. Ugh. Ultimate underdog who wants everyone to be her friend. But last week, Thea Hail showed the entire world exactly who she is: an animal with no remorse! She shattered my best friend, Jacy Jayne’s nose. Where’s the outrage from the NXT brass? My timeline’s blowing up from all my followers! Thea Hair couldn’t beat Jacy Jayne straight up, so Ava, where is the suspension? If it were up to me, Thea would no longer be in NXT. Right now, Jacy’s recovering from her surgery.
“And Jacy, as your best friend, I want to let you know that the entire WWE Universe sends their best wishes for a speedy recovery. Because you didn’t deserve this. And I will do everything in my power to take care of that little Thea Hail for committing such a heinous crime!” Jazmyn calms down, but will she become the new toxic element in NXT?
Chase U regroups backstage.
Thea is upset, Lexis is such a worm and he dares call Thea a loser?! Thea calms down, Ridge hurries over to apologize. He knows they’re mad, they have every right to be, but every time he sees Thea, he can’t help but see his little girl. He got involved and- Duke stops Ridge there. They know it was Lexis getting to them all. Ridge pays for dinner, they’ll call it even. Done! Riley brings up Ridge still cost Duke a match. Ridge says he just apologized, man. Yeah but… A leopard never changes its spots. Ridge sighs, and says if he has to earn their trust and respect, he will. Andre Chase says one day at a time.
Riley is still upset Ridge cost Duke tonight, but the others are willing to forgive. Will Ridge finally get a fair shake from the roster? Or is that just too hard a mountain to climb?
HBK reaches out to another wild rivalry in the world today.
Shawn Michaels tweeted out to Kendrick Lamar and Drake that if they wanna settle things once and for all, they are formally invited down to NXT! HBK will even mediate! Will NXT help squash the beef?
The NXT North American Championship Qualifiers have been set!
In the first week of competition, the number one seed, Sol Ruca, takes on the nine seed, Izzi Dame! And then, it’s the seven VS the eight as Lash Legend takes on Ivy Nile! Who grab up the first two spots in the ladder match for Battleground?
NXT Women’s Championship: Roxanne Perez VS Chelsea Green!
The Prodigy has proven she’s definitely a prodigy in looking out for herself and doing things her way! But the Hot Mess knows a thing or two about doing what she has to in order to get what she wants! Two ladies known for tempers are about to light it up, but who leaves tonight shining brightest of all?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who brings the gold to Sin City!
The bell rings and the two tie right up. Chelsea waistlocks, Roxie wrenches out and wristlocks, but Chelsea rolls. Roxie rolls with her, wrenches more, but Chelsea rolls back, rolls forward, then trips Roxie up! Chelsea steps over, LA MAGISTROL, TWO!! Roxie escapes just in time, and Chelsea smiles. The two reset, they tie up again, and Roxie pulls hair! Roxie puts Chelsea in a corner, the ref counts, and Chelsea turns things around. Now Chelsea smothers Roxie, but Roxie goes up the corner! The erf counts, Chelsea lets go and taunts Roxie, but Roxie SLAPS her! Roxie then leaps over Chelsea, keeps moving, but Chelsea drops down!
Roxie rolls under, stops herself, but Chelsea slides to trip her up! Chelsea spins Roxie around to SLAP her! The fans fire up and NXT goes picture in picture.
Roxie is seething as Chelsea slides back in. Chelsea then dodges Roxie to arm-drag! Roxie comes back, blocks a boot, but not the ENZIGIRI! Roxie staggers, Chelsea runs and SHOTGUNS Roxie down! Chelsea smiles as she finally gets cheers, and she runs corner to corner. Roxie dodges, Chelsea hits buckles, and Roxie runs in. Chelsea puts Roxie on the apron, but Roxie HOTSHOTS her down! Roxie drags Chelsea out to SMACK her off the apron, then SMACKS her off the desk! Roxie digs her knee into Chelsea’s head, but lets off as the ref counts. Roxie CLUBS away on Chelsea, rolls into the ring, but then goes back out for Chelsea.
Chelsea fires body shots, but Roxie CLUBS her down! Roxie whips Chelsea hard into barriers! Roxie slides in and now she wants the count to handle this. Chelsea is still down as the count climbs. Chelsea slowly sits up as we reach 5 of 10, then staggers over at 7 to slide in at 8! Roxie is on Chelsea but Chela drags her into a cradle! TWO, and Roxie hits a THESZ PRESS! Roxie rains down fists of fury, then has a cocky cover. TWO, and Roxie drags Chelsea up. Roxie wrenches, clamps on but Chelsea fights the leg sweep! NXT returns to single picture as Chelsea throws body shots! Roxie still chinbars to RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP!
Roxie runs, and UPPERCUTS Chelsea back down! Cover, TWO! Chelsea is still in this but Roxie pushes her around. Roxie scuffs Chelsea, talks trash, but the fans rally up. Roxie gets in Chelsea’s face to talk trash, but Chelsea throws body shots! Roxie ROCKS Chelsea, wrenches and chinbars, but Chelsea powers up to back suplex! Roxie lands out of it, ROCKS Chelsea, but Chelsea ROCKS her back! They go back and forth, but then Roxie gets the edge! Roxie HAMMERS away, runs, but into a BOOT! Roxie falls over, gets up, but into a LEG LARIAT! Woo woo woo, you know it! The fans fire up while both women are down!
Chelsea and Roxie crawl, and Roxie uses ropes to stand. Roxie hobbles over, but Chelsea rallies with LARIAT after LARIAT! Chelsea runs to ROCK and ROCK and CHOP Roxie in a corner! Snapmare, SLIDING FLATLINER! Cover, TWO!! Roxie survives, the fans duel, and Chelsea drags Roxie up with chicken wings. Roxie wrenches out to wrangle Chelsea! Chelsea gets free but Roxie DECKS her, then basement DROPKICKS! Chelsea goes to the apron, Roxie drags her up, but Chelsea HOTSHOTS Roxie now! Chelsea APRON CURB STOMPS! The fans fire up as Roxie flounders and Chelsea climbs! But Roxie GAMANGIRIS first!
Roxie goes up after Chelsea, SUPER STEINER! Chelsea tumbles, Roxie covers, TWO!! Chelsea survives and the fans fire up! Roxie is furious with the ref, but she watches Chelsea flounder to a corner. Roxie runs in and UPPERCUTS! Then she comes back to UPPERCUT again! Roxie keeps going, but Chelsea ALLEY OOPS her into buckles! And then GERMAN SUPLEX! Chelsea hurries to the top and the fans rally! Chelsea leaps to MISSILE DROPKICK! Cover, TWO! Roxie is tougher than that but Chelsea is beside herself! Chelsea thinks on what she has to do, and she chicken wings again! But Roxie powers free to SOBAT!
Roxie hops on, POP- NO, Chelsea pops her off! O’Conner Roll, TWO! Roxie has it, TWO!! Roll up, TWO!! Roxie gets up but Chelsea whips her, only for Roxie to SUNSET BOMB! Cover, Roxie wins!
Winner: Roxanne Perez, by pinfall (still NXT Women’s Champion)
Not quite Pop Rox but it was still just as good for The Prodigy! Will nothing stop her from dominating the NXT Women’s Division?
Someone is getting a beating in the parking lot!
Tony D’Angelo & Stacks are mugging Kemp and Myles to get them in the trunk! The Don shouts at the camera, “You think you’re in control, Charlie?! You think you’re in control!? How ’bout that Catch Clause now, Sir Charles!?” The D’Angelo Family hurries away, Kemp and Borne their hostages! And just as Dempsey walks out from the arena! He looks around for his guys, will he have to check the tape to see what just happened?
My Thoughts:
A great NXT right here. We didn’t get as much of the combine as I thought but I suppose that would’ve been a lot to share. Great choice of twelve, and we’ve already got good matches to start us off. Sol should definitely beat Izzi, and I would think Lash beats Ivy since Ivy is on Raw. No Lola Vice or Karmen Petrovic in the field but that’s okay, they clearly have more in their own feud to give. Karmen VS Shayna was a good match, but of course Shayna won out. And good promo after where Natty wants Karmen to change her game plan, and Karmen starts by kicking the horny dude bro in the head.
Really good match from Kelani and Fallon here as their friendship ends and Fallon goes fully Heel. They’re both in the top 12, I would think they are kept apart in the qualifiers so that they can both win and meet again in the ladder match. Funny little promo from Arianna and Chelsea with Gigi literally suck in the middle. Arianna of course loses to Mia so that Mia has momentum going into her own qualifier, and Gigi is definitely going to ask Ava to give her a rematch with Arianna so that Gigi can get out of this makeover deal. Mia will likely get a spot in the ladder match since they made a bigger deal about her returning to NXT.
Chelsea also losing after her little buddy buddy promo with Arianna was of course how things were gonna go. Roxie is that good as NXT Women’s Champion, and as I said last week, it has to be Giulia coming in from Stardom to make a big splash as an NXT star. Good promos from Chase U with Ridge Holland. Thea Hail is more accepting of Ridge’s input, but then Ridge messes things up for Duke against Lexis. Thea and Riley being on opposite ends of this issue, doesn’t look good for the relationship in their college romcom. At the same time, maybe Riley will be right all along, if Ridge ends up losing his cool and somehow joining Shawn Spears’ side after all. Honestly, I could see a Six Man Tag, Spears, Ridge & Lexis VS Chase U. That could also go a long way to getting a tag team out of the deal.
Great stuff in the NXT Tag Division tonight, too, such as the promo that set up Ty & Ty VS NQCC as well as Good Brothers still acting like they’re NXT 4 Life as they talk with Axiom & Frazer. Gallows & Anderson are definitely getting the tag title shot for Battleground with how the story is going. Ty & Ty had a great match with NQCC, mostly because Stacks was put in as the special guest ref. Great stuff with that story, especially with that abduction angle to end the night! Dempsey looking like lost and confused Travolta in Pulp Fiction, and now he has no choice but to defend the cup against Tony D. I still want Tony to win by knockout so that Dempsey’s technical skills are completely nullified.
Really good opening video package for Wes, and great match of Wes VS Briggs, even with Ivar being ringside and technically a factor. HHH Era seems to be an era of Triple Threats because clearly, Wes VS Briggs VS Ivar has to happen so that the winner (Wes) faces Oba at Battleground. And as I said last week, Wes can surely get past Briggs and Ivar, but something just tells me the North American title has moved past Wes. Wes will show that heart and determination, but he will likely lose, Oba continues on through the Summer as NAC. Wes can then move up to the top title scene.
Speaking of the top title, what an awesome Supernova Sessions. I figured the manila envelope secret was Dar pointing out some technicality, it’s basically the same thing with getting the Heritage Cup back from Tyler Bate and Nathan Frazer. But then what brilliant execution in revealing the Trick x Lash relationship as a way to motivate the title match even more. I also like the little bit where Je’Von gets in Meta Four’s way. Dar probably makes an example out of Je’Von in a tune-up match, but Trick might have an ally against the faction come title match time. As it stands, I would think Trick retains, but it will be an awesome match. And depending on how things go for Lash in the NXT Women’s North American Championship situation, she might not even be a factor to help Dar anyway. She might even go Team Trick so that we get an even 3v3.
My Score: 8.9/10

Andrew’s TNA Under Siege Results & Match Ratings: 5.23.25
Let’s see if this proves to be better than the awful build.
Well let’s hope the matches are interesting or something because this card is such a useless pile of nothing matches. Xia Brookside vs Rosemary went the expected way with Brookside snapping to beat the hell out of Rosemary and get DQ’d. So Xia Darkside is on the horizon and Santino had a good promo with Robert Stone.
I look forward to a prostate exam more than this show…something please don’t suck.
Tessa Blanchard, @MrStoneWWE and @VIX_CROW had words for @AriannaGraceWWE and @milanmiracle ahead of Under Siege!

Results:
Mike Santana vs KC Navarro w/AJ Francis
AJ feigns a ‘turf toe’ injury to randomly call the audible to have KC wrestle Mike. Comedy open, then KC ducks and dodges strikes, rope runs but then gets caught and tossed into a corner. Eats a Hip Attack in the corner and a Back Body Drop for a near fall. Santana mean mugs AJ and then 3 Amigos and a Latino Heat shimmy, only a near fall but it gets a pop.
KC tries to fight back to his feet and then eats a Back Chop and KC looks like he was shot in the chest. AJ was late to the interference as a second, but it at least looked funny. KC hits the 305, drives Santana into the corner, and seats Santana with the Snapmare. KC goes for a either a Satellite move or Blessing in Disguise, Santana stops KC’s momentum and Inside Out Suplex. Santana kips up and rocks KC. KC tries to avoid him, Santana does the following roll and hits the Rolling Buck Fifty. Calls for Spin the Block, but KC hits a Superkick, Pump Kick for Santana, rope runs, Santana tries the Buck Fifty again but KC avoids, strings a lot together, Corner Boot Wash into a Frog Splash for only 2.
KC tries a surprised Blessing, Santana blocks, Body Scissors Victory but Santana rolls with it, KC perches and tries a Cross Body but gets caught Buckle Bomb into Cannon Ball! 1-2-…oh KC kicked out. My son KC is looking like a million bucks in change. Spin the Block attempt, but KC crumbles to avoid. Santana hits a Jacknife Powerbomb, goes for another but KC flips out of it and eats the Spin the Block.
Santana helped KC up and shakes his hand, AJ attacks him after the fact. KC looks conflicted in helping the beat down. KC is gonna be money, give him the face turn, he’s fantastic. Extend his contract and push him to the damn moon right now.
Eddie Edwards w/Lish vs Cody Deaner
Eddie lands a few chops, hits the ropes and Cody gets the Thesz Press into Ground and Pound but Eddie hits another chop. Mostly Kobashi offense and Lish interfering. Chops, Lariats and Wife. A little jawing from Eddie, he throws Deaner into the ropes, Deaner stops the momentum and Clothesline’s the both to the outside, Deaner tries to fire up with the fans but when he turns he eats the Blue Thunder Bomb on the apron. Eddie wants a count, Deaner beats the count around 8, and Eddie jumps on him.
Deaner fires, no selling Eddie’s onslaught of Chops, Deaner goes to the top, Eddie cuts him off, rocks him, Superplex into the Tiger Driver but only a two count. Eddie starts talking crap to a fan, Cody hits a Dork Right Hand, Shiranui off the steps, rolls Eddie in, goes to the top, Crossbody but only for 2. Deaner calls for DDT, Lish gets on the apron, Eddie pulls out the Planeteer ring, Falcon Punch, but Deaner kicks out.
Eddie is besides himself, Deaner fires, tries to lock in the DDT, Eddie pushes him back to the ropes, Lish with the Uppercut to the Cock, Boston Knee Party and Deaner is gone.
Eddie is my favorite wrestler of 2025. He got rid of a parasite with the worst gimmick ever.
Northern Armoury w/Hammer the Honey Badgers vs Dango, Moose and Brian Myers w/Lish
The system were insulting Canada and making fun of jobless Deaner so Eric Young runs them down, gets big pops from the Canadian crowd and create an impromptu match using a local Mascot as their outside help to deal with Lish.
Dango and Temu Yuta start, moves that don’t matter follow because Sinner & Saint are useless. Thank god when Moose tags in, he demands Eric Young in. I wouldn’t want to dirty my hands with useless jobbers either. Shoulder Tackle spot where they bounce off each other, EY hits a Hip Toss, and Locomotion uninteresting spots from Jabroni duo, the crowd starts singing “Oh Canada” because of course.
God I hate Sinner & Saint…I have no desire to engage with the moves. I would rather watch lemon party…and a “We’ve Got Healthcare” chant starts. Hair Jabroni gets isolated for a while, Myers hits a Flatliner and a Cheap Shot. Myers goes for a Spear, eats a Knee Lift…someone tag in EY so I can care. THANK YOU.
EY cleans house, rocks everyone EY with the Flair Flip into the Corner, walks to the top rope, Moose tries the escalara cut off but EY pushes him off, Polish Hammer, EY goes back to the top, Jabroni Duo tandem Powerbomb Moose, Dive on the others, Macho Elbow connects for 2. Piledriver attempt, but Moose gets out, hits a Lights Out. Hair dork with a splash to break it up, Myers does a thing, Bald Jabroni does the stupidest Back Handspring Shotei I’ve ever seen, Dango disposes of Baldo…EY hits the Spicolli Driver on Moose and stalks him into the corner, Moose pulls EY into the buckle, Lish pulls out Kendra and beats the hell out of the Mascot. Hands Kendra to Moose, local Canadian board members get involved, Moose eats a Piledriver.
This felt…so damn TNA it wasn’t bad I just detest Sinner & Saint. They have no charisma, do nothing interesting or different or well. But a TNA chicanery overbooking classic.
Match by Elegance: TNA Knockouts Tag Titles: Spitfire vs Elegance Clique (c)
Spitfire start fast, set up a table because they’re dressed like the Dudleys, Dani gets the Powerbomb attempt countered. Elegance attack Jody, pull out some Hockey props that got sideways as the Elegances are dressed like Mounties. Things kind of devolve to slow and telegraphed spots, where’s Jisoo when I need someone to say “Not bad, but not good”.
Yeah I couldn’t care enough to follow what’s going on. It was kind of fun, but slow, corny, a Bad Powerbomb from Heather misses the table and instead her head clips the table. Why would you have someone 4 for 9 try to Powerbomb a beautifully thicc girl like Dani. I don’t ask Brad Williams to powerbomb…well…ANYONE. Same same.
Order 4 vs The Rascalz, Indi Hartwell & Raj Singh
Champagne Singh has a rambly promo that sucks. Dude can’t wrestle, he can’t talk…why pick him? He didn’t even get cheap pops.
Tornado start, Rascalz double the hands, then things calm down and Indi starts with Tasha. Indi throws Tasha into the ropes for a Stun Gun that she bounces back from and into a Side Walk Slam. Skyler tags in, Wentz takes things over, Rascalz hold Skyler’s legs and Signh does the “Wazzup”.
Singh starts beating the hell out of both hands, Tasha dives, Singh catches her, but Ali picks the ankle, Apron Hung DDT as Tasha helps with a Stomp. So they try Locomotion isolation on Singh, he fights off a bit, but Ali tags in and Hotch and Ali hit a beautiful Outside In Rolling Neckbreaker spot. Ali hits the Standing Corkscrew, Singh manages to clock him and the Knockouts tag in. She clears the Hands off the apron, but Ali grabs her hair, dodges her swing, Tasha tries the School Girl for the flash win but Indi kicks out and then hits the Spinebuster. Ali breaks up the pin with a Senton. Signature spam moment, Ali got the best of it, but now we get the Human Centipede Suplex Struggle…but Tasha and Indi fight ontop of them. Inside of the suplex, they’re the cheerleader style Pyramid base. Indi his the Cutter through the base of teammates. Okay…that was unique, I always liked Indi.
Rascalz hit the Hands with a Hot Fire Flame into a Tornillo from Wentz. The Hands may be out for the rest of the match. Singh vs Ali. Ali tries to use the feet on ropes, Rascalz push off. The faces surround Ali, bit the Hands actually recover, Tasha tries to deal with Indi, and Ali hits a very stiff looking Sliding Dropkick to Indi’s face. 450 on Singh to win the match. He then starts choking Singh with the apron skirt and Tasha gets in his way and he shoves her hard. Ali’s new gimmick is…sexually frustrated mad woman hater? Not sure…it’s interesting at least.
Indi better be fine though. She’s a cutie who can actually work.
Arianna Grace vs Tessa Blanchard
Robert Stone tells Santino that without a manager’s license he can’t be out here. He’s banned from ring side.
Tessa Wrist Locks, Front Facelocks, just making fun of her. The crowd does the “She’s a Racist” chant so Tessa does the Hulk Hogan pose. She’s loving the heat. Arianna has been getting so dominated this looks more like the start of a Pornhub video aside from normal pro wrestling. Tessa is just picking her apart. Tessa misses or Arianna was supposed to move and didn’t so it looked kinda bad.
Grace hits a slap and Tear Drop Suplex to finally start doing things. Rolling Elbows, Cutters and a lot of simple offense as Tessa stays cocky but Arianna keep landing a punch or two, finally hits the Superplex but only for two. Arianna tries another Superplex, but Tessa bites her face, wants Magnum but slips so she adjusts to hitting the Buzzsaw first and redoing the finish.
It was sloppy and uninteresting, but they’re both hot, so I’m not complaining. I’d just like to know if the botches were Tessa’s fault or Arianna being green as fuck.
TNA Knockouts Championship: Victoria Crawford (Alicia Fox) vs Masha Slamovich (c)
They start cat fight style until Masha hits the Drop Toe hold into PK and lariat as Alicia powders, Masha follows and starts arguing with Robert Stone and Alicia hits a beautiful Jumping Side Kick. The her Northern Lights Suplex on the floor. Masha tries to fight out and misses her Sole Butt so Crawford screams at her, slams her down and starts getting annoyed. Forearms into a Vertical Suplex Crawford goes into the pin for only two.
Rope run, Masha fights back again, bad looking Capo kick…great interference by Stone has Masha stumble into Crawford and she hits a gorgeous Package Piledriver. Belt distraction spot but the ref tries to wrestle it away, Masha tries to stop it, Masha clocks the ref, Crawford connects with the belt. Tries about Package Piledriver but Masha blocks and hits the Russian Death Device, but ref is still dead. Masha tries to revive the ref, School Girl kick out, spinning back fist, Requiem… meh.
TNA Tag Team Championship: Bootleg Hardyz (Leon Slater & Matt Hardy vs Kaiba Boys (c)
Matt and Nic start off, Matt gets the early upper hand with this weird Headlock open into the Shoulder Tackle and Headlock Takeover. Matt finally tags out from the most boring opening sequence, but Leon starts doing the same Headlock crap. The last match was boring, this is starting bad and now tornado brawl but the Bootlegs clear the ring. Holy hell this is bad…starting too slow after two bad matches. Nemeths forgot who was level cause this is so boring. Holy crap this is the worst 5 minutes ever. I am slipping into a coma while sharting.
They’ve been isolating Leon long enough for the crowd to chant “We want Matt”, there’s a tease but Matt gets pulled off the apron. Ryan connects on the Implant DDT. Tries another but Leon counters and hits a Back Handspring Elbow. Simultaneous tags, Matt has control, Delete Buckle Smashes. Matt hits Delete Buckle Smashes on Ryan too, then Side Effects for everyone, Twist of…countered. Nic pushes Matt into Ryan and Ryan gets popped. FameASSer gets a 2. Assisted Back Drop/Neckbreaker and Slater makes the save. Throws Mokuba out, Plancha, Matt tries to roll up Nic but he kicks. Nic hits the Twist of Fate for arrogance, only two.
Superkick is caught, Leon flies in with a Leg Lariat, then Plot Twist for only 2! Ryan moves Nic from Poetry In Motion, Matt moves closer, Poetry over the Post. Twist of Fate from Matt, Swanton 450…1-2…Ryan saves the day and smashes Matt’s face into the apron. Leon tries to help, but misses and gets thrown into the Steps, Superkick and Danger Zone onto Matt, Kaiba Boys retain.
Half of that match was unwatchable.
Joe Hendry & Elijah vs Frankie Kazarian & Trick Williams
Kaz and Elijah start, some interesting counter spots with Elijah using the ropes for Short Arm Lariats, a few times, tags in Joe and Trick asks for the tag. Kaz tells everyone to fuck off, doesn’t tag and goes after Joe with a few short punches, but Joe Shoulder Tackles and Hip Toss, tags in Elijah and they do a Simple Double Back Elbow, look for a Double Bomb but Kaz rolls through and tags in Trick when he wants to. Trick and Elijah connect and its mostly Trick talking and then Rope Run spots, and a lot of talking.
Dysfunctional teammate tagging in and out yelling stuff… ugh. Elijah wipes them both out in the most uninteresting ways, and Joe hits his Rock the Baby Flying Senton. And that’s the first time the crowd pops this match. Kaz starts walking away, Trick goes after Kaz, the faces go after both, they deposit the heels into the crowd and start brawling into the crowd. The referee is out there with them and not counting.
At least this brawl has forced the crowd out of their Canadian coma, people in the ring, Elijah Rope Walk, Hendry Stalling Suplex at the time. Elijah walked 3 corners and then they punctuate together. Elijah hits the ropes, Kaz trips him, he eats a Trick Kick and a Flapjack. Trick tags out for Kaz to continue to isolate Elijah, Trick tags back, Elijah tries to fight out but Trick kicks Elijah in the head and then cheap shots Hendry on the apron. Leg Lariat from Trick on Elijah.
Eventual tag out to Hendry, Sack of Shits and Kip Ups. Standing O, Trick says no, so Hendry hits the Olympic Slam for two. Trick counters AA with Bookend, Trick to the top, Crossbody, Joe rolls through, AA. Kaz tags, Backstabber, Sliding Lariat, Slingshot Leg Drop for two. Kaz goes Chicken Wing, Joe says no, AA for Kaz. Elijah tags in, and loses control immediately, Trick tags in and also loses control immediately. Trick tries to fly at him, but Knee Lift from Elijah for a 2. Trick Shot on Elijah, Joe makes the save, Kaz takes him outside and grabs a guitar. Kaz tags in and tries to use the guitar, Highwayman’s Farewell but Trick saves it. Trick wants to use the guitar, distracts ref, Elijah’s roll up doesn’t win. Trick Shot accidentally hits Kaz Standing Ovation and face win.
Is Trick winning at Battleground or will this just be very one sided in matches?
Overall Score: 2/10
Two points for KC Navarro being the best thing going right now.
The rest, botches, botches everywhere and boy oh boy:

PLAY BY PLAY
Drew McIntyre arrives backstage.
And is immediately attacked by Damian Priest! The Archer of Infamy and the Scottish Terminator are #OnSight with each other, and the brawl is on! Priest gets the edge, but then Drew RAMS him into a road case! Security and producers pull these two apart, but it takes a lot of them! Will these two have to be sent home so they can make it to tomorrow night’s Steel Cage match?
Tiffany Stratton is here!
Savannah, Georgia fires up as the WWE Women’s Champion struts her way to the ring. And even after a red hot battle last week, it is still Tiffy Time! Tiff has the mic to ask, “Savannah, Georgia, what time is it?” “TIFFY TIME!” Tiff says that is right. So much can change in over a year. This time last year, she was walking into Money in the Bank with all the hype in the world. Some thought she was in over her head, but here she is, standing as THE WWE Women’s Champion! The fans cheer that! And along the way, she has beaten some of the best. On the Grandest Stage of Them All, she beat Charlotte Flair!
And just last week, she kicked Nia Jax’s face off! And in two weeks at MITB, someone will have the same opportunity as Tiff had. So word of advice to whoever wins: If you try cashing in on Tiff, just know- Wait! Alexa Bliss is here! Savannah fires up all over again as Lil’ Miss Bliss makes her way down to the ring, then grabs herself a mic. Bliss says she and Tiff haven’t been formally introduced. Alexa is a former women’s champion, and a former Miss MITB. And Tiff, Alexa has had her eye on you. Tiff caught Alexa’s eye when Tiff beat Charlotte at Mania. And Alexa felt a little bad for Charlotte, but then remembered you can’t feel bad for a narcissist who calls herself The Queen.
Alexa doesn’t need to do stuff like that. But what she does need is the briefcase hanging up there, because Tiffy… Is it okay if Alexa calls her that? Tiff says yes. Alexa tells Tiffy that this is all business. Tiff cashed in on Nia, just like Alexa. But the difference is, Alexa actually liked Nia. She doesn’t know Tiff. So Tiff better pray that Alexa doesn’t win. If you think that rise to the top was quick, just wait for the downfall. But wait! Now Charlotte Flair makes her way out here! The fans boo The Queen, but she struts out in her black feathered robe, gets her pyro, and also gets a mic. Charlotte puts the robe aside and is dressed for her match.
Charlotte tells everyone that if there’s one thing she’s known for is humility. She might be the most humble 14-TIME champion in the history of the WWE! Now, she wants to humbly congratulate Tiff for beating her at Mania. “Tiffany, sweetie, you’re doing great. But it’s not gonna last forever.” And the thing is, Charlotte’s done everything there is to do in the WWE except win the Women’s MITB. So when she does win, and she cashes in, not only will Charlotte take that title back, she plans on taking back the spotlight! Fans chant “Charlotte Sucks!” but Charlotte says when she wants something, she doesn’t wait, she just takes!
Tiff tells “Char” that she is lowkey giving hypocrite. Didn’t Charlotte say that cashing in was the “easy way?” Then why is Charlotte trying to qualify? ANd to be honest, Charlotte and Alexa are both a little… vintage for Tiff. They were the standard, she’s the upgrade! Whether they like it or not, but as long as Tiff is champion, it’ll always be Tiffy Time~! Tiff drops the mic, waves tootles, and then holds up her title on the way out. But will it still be her title after Money in the Bank? Or will she be the prime target for Miss MITB 2025? Well, speaking of that match, Giulia makes her entrance! Will MITB succumb to the Beautiful Madness? Or will wrestling royalty take over?
Women’s Money in the Bank Qualifier Triple Threat: Charlotte Flair VS Zelina Vega VS Giulia!
SmackDown returns as Zelina makes her entrance, going full Prominence Burn with her entrance attire. One month as Women’s US Champion, could the inaugural Queen of the Ring soon add “Miss MITB” to her list of accomplishments?
The bell rings and the fans cheer as the three stare down. Charlotte gets some last-minute stretching in, then she, Zelina and Giulia circle. Giulia and Charlotte stare down more, but Zelina won’t be left out. She pushes them, but Charlotte KNEES Zelina low! Charlotte TOSSES Zelina, then goes back to Giulia. They circle, but Zelina rolls Giulia up! TWO, Charlotte scoops Zelina, but gets a tilt-o-whirl RANA! Giulia CLOBBERS Zelina, and then she stares down with Charlotte. The fans rally and ‘WOO~!” as the two tie up. They go around, break, and Giulia dodges a boot. Zelina wheelbarrows Charlotte, but is sent at Giulia, so she RANAS through!
Zelina runs, Charlotte scoops her and talks trash before the FALL AWAY SLAM! Charlotte kips up, the fans “WOO~!” again, and she goes to Zelina. Charlotte CHOPS Zelina, but Giulia storms up. Giulia pushes Charlotte aside so she can CHOP Zelina. Giulia and Charlotte stare down, then Charlotte KNEES low! Charlotte RAMS Giulia into Zelina, those two fall, and then Charlotte waistlocks Giulia. Giulia fights the lift, drops down and slips out to trip Charlotte! The fans cheer as Giulia ties up the legs! Giulia then SLAPS Charlotte to get those arms, DEATHLOCK SURFBOARD and STOMP! The fans fire up and Giulia stands over Charlotte.

Zelina survives because of the delay, and Charlotte argues with Giulia. Giulia goes for Zelina but Charlotte rolls her up! TWO, and Charlotte LARIATS Giulia down!
Charlotte storms up on Zelina, brings her around, but Zelina JAWBREAKERS free! Zelina runs, ducks ‘n’ dodges, and CROSSBODIES! Zelina hurries to whip Charlotte, but Charlotte reverses. Zelina goes up and over and rolls Charlotte up, TWO! ROLLING KICK! But Giulia brings Zelina up, BIG back suplex! Cover, TWO!

Charlotte tumbles away and Giulia goes to the corner. Charlotte hits her with a BACKBREAKER and BUCKLE SHOT! Cover, TWO!
SmackDown returns to single picture, Charlotte slaps Giulia around and talks trash. Charlotte pie faces Giulia, the fans boo, but Giulia SLAPS back! Giulia fires knees, then fires up! The fans are with her and she runs in, only for Charlotte to DUMP her out! Giulia stands but into a GAMANGIRI! Zelina is in a corner, Charlotte runs up but Zelina BOOTS her! And FLYING RAN- NO!

Winner: Giulia, by pinfall (advances to Money in the Bank)
It was an instant classic, and now the former NXT Women’s Champion is going to be one step away from a new prize! Will she make this the Beautiful Madness in the Bank and snatch a title just as quickly?
#DIY speaks.
Tommaso Ciampa says, “Ever since we came to SmackDown last year, we have turned this tag team division into the best on the planet.” Johnny Gargano adds, “We did that!” The Profits hold the gold, but every time DIY takes a step forward, Motor City Machine Guns are breathing down their neck. Shelley, Sabin, the only thing they ever did was piggyback off Gargano’s friendship to get into this company. MCMG likes to say that they are your favorite tag team’s favorite tag team. Talk about egotistical sociopaths! And if that wasn’t enough, there are the young rookies, Fraxiom, adding to the delusion! Frazer goes on social media shouting from the mountaintops, “Oh, thank you, MCMG!”
How pathetic! Add Fraxiom to the long list of people trying to hold DIY back! Conspiring against them! And after last month, the brutal TLC, it is clear that something needs to change. That change begins tonight, when Ciampa takes on Sabin 1v1. And Ciampa promises that when this entire story is done, you are looking at the THREE-TIME WWE Tag Team Champions, D I Y! Ciampa storms off, but will the Sicilian Psycho scratch Sabin off their hitlist? Or is it time for the Machine Guns to fire back?
Zelina returns backstage.
The Women’s US Champion is clearly upset over her loss, but Chelsea Green walks over. She has her Secret Her-vice stand down, there is absolutely no threat here. But it is amazing how Zelina manages to be a champion and yet still a loser. How does she do it? Zelina ROCKS Chelsea, and then the Secret Her-vice mugs Zelina! But Mia Yim SMACKS Alba with a kendo stick! Piper DECKS Mia, B-Fab runs up and it is chaos! Nick Aldis shouts, “ENOUGH! ENOUGH! Everyone just calm down!” Mia says Zelina got Chelsea, but she & B-Fab need to get after the Secret Her-vice tonight! Aldis likes the sound of that! They’ll do it TONIGHT!
B-Fab says see you later! Will Piper & Alba pay for Chelsea’s crimes? Or will there be no getting past the Green Regime?
Chris Sabin w/ Alex Shelley VS Tommaso Ciampa w/ Johnny Gargano!
SmackDown returns as DIY makes their entrance. The bell rings and Ciampa circles with Sabin. They tie up, Ciampa pulls Sabin’s ear, and he puts Sabin in a corner. The ref counts, Ciampa lets off, but Sabin avoids the cheap shot! Sabin arm-drags Ciampa and the two reset. The fans rally, the two circle, and they knuckle lock. Sabin spins to wrench and headlock. Ciampa powers up and out but Sabin runs him over! Cover, ONE, but Sabin arm-drags to an armlock. Ciampa endures, fights up, but Sabin hammerlocks. Ciampa slips through, but Sabin puts the hammerlock right back on! Sabin grinds the arm, Ciampa reaches out, but Sabin pulls him back.
Ciampa again tries to get free but Sabin just puts the hammerlock right back on him. Ciampa ELBOWS Sabin down, shakes out the bad arm, then he whips Sabin into buckles.

Ciampa wrenches and CHOPS Sabin, then snapmares for a STOMP! Sabin clutches his face but Ciampa pushes him to a cover, ONE!! Ciampa is frustrated but he stomps Sabin’s hand! Ciampa stomps Sabin around, drags him up, and whips. Sabin ducks ‘n’ dodges and tilt-o-whirls to RANA!
Ciampa gets up, Sabin arm-drags again, and Ciampa bails out. Gargano cools Ciampa down, but Sabin PLANCHAS! Ciampa rolls in, Sabin lands safe on the apron, but Ciampa throws Gargano’s jacket at him! Sabin is stuck, WILLOW’S BELL! Sabin flops out and the fans boo, but Ciampa whips him into barriers! The fans are torn but DIY clap and pat themselves on the back while SmackDown goes to break.
SmackDown returns and Sabin BULLDOGS Ciampa! The fans fire up while both men are down! Ciampa and Sabin crawl to opposite corners, then stand. Ciampa runs up, Sabin BOOTS him, then LARIATS! And LARIATS! Sabin blocks a kick, SWEEPS the leg, then PENALTY KICKS, but Ciampa blocks! Ciampa stands, but Sabin wrenches and STRAITJACKET GERMAN SUPLEXES! The fans fire up as Sabin runs corner to corner, GAMANGIRI! Cover, TWO! Ciampa scrambles to the outside and Gargano checks on him. Sabin goes to the apron, Ciampa dodges and hops up. Ciampa ROCKS Sabin, Sabin ROCKS Ciampa, repeat!
The CHOPS go back and forth and the fans “WOO~” with each one! Ciampa fires up, ducks a chop, and picks Sabin up for an APRON AIR RAID CRASH!! Cover, TWO!! Sabin survives and the fans fire up! Ciampa snarls and looms over Sabin. Ciampa drags Sabin up, brings him around, and reels him in.

Ciampa survives and the fans fire up again as Sabin climbs. Sabin aims as Ciampa rises, but Gargano distracts him!
The fans boo, the ref reprimands, but now Shelley is after Gargano. Gargano backs off, Ciampa runs up, but Sabin dodges! The BOOT hits Shelley, Sabin rolls Ciampa, TWO!! Sabin staggers, dodges Ciampa, and Ciampa tumbles out! Sabin builds speed to TRIANGLE JUMP PLANCHA! Down goes DIY! The fans fire up as all four men are down! Sabin rises, he fetches Ciampa into the ring, “This is Awesome!” as Sabin climbs a corner. Ciampa CHOPS first! Ciampa climbs up after Sabin, reels him in, but Sabin fires body shots! Sabin ROCKS Ciampa, Ciampa falls, and he clutches the leg! The ref checks Ciampa and Sabin isn’t sure what to make of this.
BUT CANDICE LERAE IS HERE! She HOTSHOTS Sabin!! PSYCHO KNEE from Ciampa!! Cover, Ciampa wins!!
Winner: Tommaso Ciampa, by pinfall
DIY does it again, and the Poison Pixie is the magic difference maker! Will this “change” be what helps DIY take over SmackDown?
Backstage interview with Fraxiom.
Byron Saxton is with Nathan Frazer & Axiom to bring up their meteoric rise in the WWE. They debuted on SmackDown just a month ago but have been undefeated in that time. How much pressure is there heading into the biggest match of their careers? Frazer says it has been a wild ride, and he’d be lying if he said this wasn’t the biggest night of their lives. Axiom says they can think back on those nights when they were dreaming of an opportunity like this. And tonight is that night! They could become the NEW WWE Tag Team Champions! They’re nervous, because the Profits are one of the best tag teams in the world.
But tonight, the Profits are just a step on Fraxiom’s path to greatness. Frazer agrees with amigo Axiom, because while DIY said that stuff about them, they’re not worried about what DIY said. They are only concerned with the Profits and that if they beat them again, they can become champions! They can make history! If they believe in themselves, if they’re on the same page, then they could take on any tag team on the planet! Byron wishes them luck, but will it be the combination of speed and agility that takes the titles?
Damian Priest heads to the ring.
But before he can properly make an entrance, Drew McIntyre is on him! They brawl again, and Priest sends Drew into barriers! Then he ROCKS Drew! Drew hits back, the fans fire up, and Drew sends Priest into barriers now! Priest ROCKS Drew, Drew kicks Priest, and then Drew POSTS Priest! Security hurries out here but the fans want to “LET THEM FIGHT! LET THEM FIGHT!” Producers and refs join in and separate the two. Priest grabs a mic to shout at Drew, “Where you going? You gonna go hide behind your phone? Nah, it’s Guepa Time! Tomorrow, I send your ass to the hospital! But tonight, I’m getting my pound of flesh!”
Priest DOUBLE LARIATS security, then leaps out to attack Drew on the ramp! They brawl, the producers separate them, and Aldis says for these two to be taken away! Drew and Priest are going to be like wild animals inside that Steel Cage, who will even survive Saturday Night’s Main Event?
Solo Sikoa talks with JC Mateo backstage.
Solo knows JC knows, but then Jacob Fatu walks in. Solo says big tag match tonight! Fatu & Mateo, same page, baby. But Fatu wants to talk with Solo in private real quick. Why? Anything he has to say to Solo, he can say to JC. JC’s family now. What is on Fatu’s mind? Fatu says first thing on his mind is that he doesn’t trust JC. He doesn’t know JC. He doesn’t like JC. And he damn sure doesn’t like what Solo’s got going on. See, Fatu didn’t need the help at Backlash. At the end of the day, JC ain’t blood, and he damn sure ain’t family. Solo has JC stand down, and Solo says that aggression is what he is talking about!
Just take that aggression and transfer it to Jimmy Uso & Rey Fenix. Speaking of Jimmy, Solo knows Jimmy is upset that Roman Reigns left. Jimmy is all sad. But y’know who never left? Solo! And he never will. He wants Jimmy to come back, but the only way that can happen is if Fatu and Mateo work together as a family. YADAD- NO, Solo, stop that. That’s not even it. You saying it wrong. But see you out there tonight. Yarrrrrda mean? Solo says he doesn’t hear the difference. But can the Samoan Werewolf and the Imperial Unit tear down #BigJim and the Firebird?
Charlotte Flair walks backstage.
But Alexa says, “And that’s why it’s important to have friends. Because when you don’t, there’s no one there to lift you up when everything falls apart.” Charlotte asks, “What’d you say?” Alexa says she wasn’t talking to Charlotte, she was talking to Lily. But see you at MITB. Oh… Sorry. Alexa leaves The Queen behind, but will Charlotte show she can do bad all by herself?
Mia Yim & B-Fab VS The Secret Her-Vice w/ Chelsea Green!
The Head Baddie in Charge & Miss Fabulous made sure the Green Regime didn’t bully Zelina Vega, and now they’re stepping right up to the Hot Mess’s personal security. Will Mia & Fab kick some serious lass tonight? Or will Alba & Piper pave the way to Chelsea’s “reelection?”
SmackDown returns and Michin makes her entrance, followed right by B-Fab’s. They go to the ring together, and the teams sort out. Piper starts with B-Fab and they tie up. They throw hands in the clinch, then end up on the ropes. Fab keeps firing shots but Alba tags in. Now Alba & Piper mug Fab, then THROW her down! Piper runs to BLAST Mia, Alba sets Fab up and Piper SENTONS! Chelsea applauds, Alba adds a SUPERKICK, and Alba covers, TWO! Alba drags Fab up and puts her in the corner to stomp a mudhole in! Tag to Piper and Chelsea taunts Fab while another Piper stomps another mudhole in!
Tag to Alba, she stomps a mudhole, then argues with the ref so Piper can pull Fab’s hair! Alba KNEES Fab down, tags Piper, and Piper drags Fab up. Piper straitjackets to the COBRA CLUTCH! Fab endures, the fans rally, and Fab fires body shots! Piper ripcords but Fab ducks the lariat, only for Piper to hit a SCRAPBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Fab survives, Chelsea is frustrated, but Piper SLAPS Fab around! Piper kicks Fab around, drags her up, and Piper reels Fab in for a suplex. Fab slips free, reaches out, but Piper keeps her from Mia. Fab wrenches and KNEES Piper down! The fans fire up and Fab crawls, but so does Piper!
Hot tags to Michin and Alba! Mia dodges Alba, ROCKS Piper, then LARIATS Alba! And LARIATS! Mia DROPKICKS Alba and the fans fire up! Mia runs up, whips, but Alba reverses. Mia RANAS Alba away! Mia dusts off, but Piper is in! Mia ROUNDHOSUES Piper, then kicks off Alba to ASAI DDT Piper! Mia has Alba again, but Chelsea distracts everyone! The ref reprimands, but ZELINA is here! She YANKS Chelsea down and KNEES her in the face! The fans fire up for the US Champion, and she runs away! Piper chases her, but Fab LARIATS Piper! But Alba rolls Mia up, TWO! Mia stands, Fab tags in! Mia makes Alba EAT DA FEET!
Fab is in, she has Alba for the NECKBREAKER REMIX! #Fab-U-LOST! Cover, Fab & Mia win!
Winners: Mia Yim & B-Fab, by pinfall
Mia & Fab bail out before Chelsea & Piper can get in! The Green Regime suffers a humiliating defeat, will they pack it in before it gets worse? Or will Chelsea have to resort to some extreme measures to get back in power?
Backstage interview with The Street Profits.
Byron is now with the WWE Tag Team Champions, Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins, and says there is a belief out there that all the pressure to win tonight is on them. What? Well, Fraxiom beat them once, and if they do it again, the Profits have to say goodbye to the tag titles. Dawkins says, “Hold up, fam. This is a big night for Fraxiom, this is a big night for us! They got one up on us, and that’s cool, props to them. But tonight, it’s about these! This right here is Gucci! This right here is food on the table! This ain’t no friendly exhibition, and we gonna see under the bright lights if the moment’s too big for Fraxiom.”
Ford adds, “Oh, oh, Fraxiom’s on a roll! Fraxiom’s undefeated! Fraxiom’s the best tag team in the world! All LIES! Okay? Cuz tonight, it’s like he said, we’re gonna see if the moment’s too big for ’em, cuz we gonna walk out of Savannah, Georgia the same way we walked in: YOUR WWE Tag Team Champions!” But then in steps Solo Sikoa with JC Mateo & Jacob Fatu. Solo chuckles, because the family is about to handle their business first. Will nothing stop Solo’s Bloodline from rising from the ashes? Or is that more a Fenix thing?
Legado del Fantasma sits at the table.
Santos Escobar wants to tell Los Garza this. “Angel, Berto, you’re mi familia. And yes, like any other familia, there are a lot of beautiful moments, bonding moments. But sometimes, there’s fighting, there’s bickering. I just know what we are capable of when we come together.” Berto says this is just another stupid pep talk. Santos says it is more than that! This is business. And on June 7th, Worlds Collide in Los Angeles… They will come together as the best this house has to offer, against the best they have to offer. Legado has shown who they are, where they come from, and what they are about across the globe!
And now, this is the opportunity to stand victorious. And this time, it will be in front of their people! Santos will drink to that. Angel stands with Santos, but Berto is reluctant. Santos tells Berto to trust him. See the vision. Berto raises his glass after all, but just to drink. Santos tells Angel to let him be, because soon, Berto will understand. Salud. Legado is set to face AAA’s best in Pagano, Psycho Clown & El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr! But who will be the best of the best when Worlds Collide?
Jimmy Uso & Rey Fenix VS Jacob Fatu & JC Mateo w/ Solo Sikoa!
SmackDown returns and we’re backstage with #BigJim and Fenix. Jimmy gets them fired up. Last week, they were opponents. But tonight, they’re teammates, carnal. What’s Fenix say? Fenix says tonight, for the first time ever, they will show all the beautiful people of Georgia who they are! Jimmy says he’s with it! Vaminos, carnal! ANIMO, UCE! Jimmy makes his entrance first, followed by Fenix. The teams sort out and Jimmy starts against Fatu. The fans rally behind Jimmy as he and Fatu slowly circle. Solo tells Jimmy that he can still be in the family, he just has to be smart. Fatu and Jimmy circle, but then Mateo tags in!
The fans boo while Fatu and Mateo stare down. Fatu steps out, and Jimmy fires hands on Mateo! Jimmy runs, but Mateo RUNS him over! Mateo stomps Jimmy in the corner, then Fatu tags in. The fans rally for Jimmy while Fatu stares Mateo down. Mateo backs off, Jimmy kicks, but Fatu blocks! But the DRAGON WHIP hits! Tag to Fenix, Jimmy gives him the boost for the ENZIGIRI! Then for a RANA! Fatu tumbles out, Mateo runs in but Fenix SUPERKICKS !Jimmy SUPERKICKS! Then they DOUBLE SUPERKICK! Mateo tumbles out, Jimmy sets up and Fenix builds speed! Jimmy gives Fenix the boost for the TOP ROPE TORNILLO!
The fans fire up as Fenix wipes out Fatu AND Mateo! The fans fire up, Solo gets his behemoths to focus, but the fans say “ANIMO YEET!” while SmackDown goes to break.
SmackDown returns and the fans rally for Jimmy as he endures a bearhug from Mateo. Jimmy fights up, fires body shots and elbows, but Mateo shoves him to ELBOW him, JAB him, and YUKON LARIAT him!

Backstage interview with LA Knight.
Byron Saxton wants to note the impressive win we just saw, but The Mega Star says, “NAH NAH! You gotta 86 that trash, cuz we’re standing in my locker room right now, so lemme talk to ya! You wanna talk about anything with those cross-eyed halfwits, let’s talk about Solo Sikoa being in Money in the Bank. Let’s talk about the fact that he’s got himself a first-class, front-row seat to watching me monkey rip that case down off that ladder. And what that means is, you think about it, the odds are against me, it’s 1-in-6 chance, but the odds are against everybody. But the odds have been against me ever since I stepped foot, and still I stand here the man they call The Mega Star! YEAH!
“But then I think about it. I’m gonna return to the city that helped make me, Los Ange. I’m gonna walk into Money in the Bank, and what I’m gonna do is I’m gonna show up and I’m gonna show out. But before I get there, I gotta walk through the darkness. Now, what do I mean by that? What I mean by that is tonight, in a little bit, the lights are gonna turn out and out walks Aleister Black. Then the lights are gonna turn out a little bit later, and out’s gonna walk Shinsuke Nakamura. And through all that, the man who’s gonna walk out and shine a little light on a couple guys who are living spooky season year round, NAH NAH! It’s championship season!
“And what that means is that this man has to go through two of ya, on the job, all day, every day, dropping BFTs on everybody, which means one of ya catching three the hard way. Cuz I hit it and quit it, moving on to Money in the Bank. But with or without the case, you gotta understand, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, I am walking, talking, living, breathing Money in the Bank, with everybody saying…” “L! A! KNIGHT!” “YEAH!!” Knight is ready to make this his night, but will LA be heading home to LA to win the big one?
R-Truth is here!
Savannah cheers but Truth isn’t worried about rapping his theme song as he goes to the ring. Truth steps inside, grabs a mic, and he tells Savannah, “Make some noise! WHAT’S UP!?” “WHAT’S UP?!” Truth will tell ’em what’s up. Everyone keeps asking him, “How’re you gonna handle fighting your childhood hero, John Cena, on Saturday night?” The fans boo, but Truth says they don’t get it. He’s not fighting his childhood hero, John Cena, tomorrow night. The man we all see now, the man who attacked Truth, Truth doesn’t recognize him. But Truth has been thinking about his childhood hero, John Cena.
Truth couldn’t figure out where it went wrong, or how he could’ve prevented this. Then he realized the problem. “What?” Truth says he realized the problem! It’s power. It’s always power! Cena used to call Truth his friend, his brother, but the more power and fame Cena got, the more disconnected he became. The text messages were less. The replies were slower. The phone calls stopped! Truth felt like Cena was always annoyed with him, because no matter what Truth did, it was wrong. Truth blames himself. Then Truth thought he did something to upset Cena, or getting on his nerves. But then Truth talked to others, and they said they felt the same way!
“John Cena isolated himself with power! He was like that goblin fella on Lord of the Rings! He became corrupted with all the power he gave himself. That’s you, John Cena! That’s you! Staring at your championship, calling it Your Precious! It’s not the championship, it’s your ego, dawg!” The fans cheer that. Truth says Cena stopped having fun, and now he’s mad when someone else wants to have fun. The fans also cheer that. Truth doesn’t like who Cena has become. And he doesn’t believe Cena is happy. “What?” “He’s not happy.” Cena is the greatest of all time. He is, y’all! Truth doesn’t know if he can bring Cena back, but he’s gonna try.
Truth says Cena will not take Truth’s joy away from him! The fans cheer that! Truth says, “You wanna ruin wrestling? So if I wanna save wrestling, I gotta save you! Now, I don’t wanna have to put my hands on you, but if I have to… I will beat the ever-living Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect right back in yo ass!” The fans love that! Truth tells he’ll leave us with this. “I miss my hero. I can’t deny it. So Saturday, we fans again! If Cena wins, WE RIOT! WHAT’S UP?!” The fans fire up for that! Will Truth be the one to stop Cena from ruining wrestling and his own legacy?
WWE hears from three more contenders.
The Eerie Glow says, “Undervalued, underappreciated, underestimated. The old Naomi allowed herself to be taken advantage of. I’m done with thanking people for the scraps they gave me.” But The Storm says, “Naomi took everything away from me. She took my friendships, my title, and my health. But not just that, she took my opportunity at the WWE Women’s Championship.” And the Irresistible Force says, “I only have one thing on my mind, and it’s the title. And if anyone gets in my way, I show them no mercy. Naomi and Jade Cargill got in my way. I don’t care about petty drama. But when somebody ruins my chances at MY championship, I’m going to ruin their chances.”
Jade refuses to let anyone take one more thing from her, and she’ll be damned if it is MITB. Nia says she’s worked with Naomi before, but she doesn’t trust her. Naomi says she is taking her revenge, taking back all the times she let Nia and Jade get the better of her. Jade says next week, they better watch their backs, because a storm is coming. Nia doesn’t care who it is, she will A-Nia-Late them all until she gets what she wants. Naomi is taking her victory, that contract, and it all will be Money in the Bank. Three forces of nature are set to collide, who will even survive?

Nakamura rolls back into the ring and he storms up on Aleister. Nakamura kicks Aleister around, taunts him, and SLAPS him! Aleister gets in Nakamura’s face, and the forearms fly! The fans rally as Aleister fires another strike fest, but Nakamura SHADOW ELBOWS! But then Aleister SHADOW ELBOWS! Nakamura HEADBUTTS and whips, then runs up. Nakamura blocks a boot but not the KNEE! Aleister storms up but into the ROLLING KICK! Aleister sits in a corner, Knight KNEES him down! Knight TOSSES Nakamura, hauls Aleister up, and he whips to scoop. Aleister slips free, shoves, and JUMP KNEES! Knight tumbles out and fans fire up!

Winner: LA Knight, by pinfall (advances to Money in the Bank)
YEAH!! The Mega Star is the Mega Opportunist, and now he’ll be in the City of Angels! But will Knight be climbing the ladder to success?
The Miz & Carmelo Hayes watch this.
Melo says it’s just like he said! It feels good to watch Aleister drop the ball. Miz says what would be better is if Melo listened to him last week, and he would’ve beaten Aleister. How many times must Miz take a Black Mass for Melo to listen? Melo says he gets it, but it’s fine. He is in a MITB qualifier. Melo takes credit, but then Miz says no, Miz did that. Miz talked with Aldis and it was the option of either Miz or Melo in that match. Miz knows he could win MITB and cash-in again, he chose Melo. It is Melo’s time to shine. Miz just wants Melo to understand how important MITB truly is. It is the gateway to superstardom!
That MITB briefcase too Miz not just to the WWE Championship, but to the main event of WrestleMania! He isn’t sure he’d be where he is today if not for MITB. He wouldn’t be TWO-TIME WWE Champion! That is how much Miz believes in H1M. And that is why he’ll win the qualifier! And who will make sure Melo walks out of LA with briefcase in hand and “Dre” around his neck? The Miz! Who will make sure Melo becomes Mr. MITB? Miz! And who is going to listen to Miz and execute the play like he designed it? Melo. Exactly! Because they are Melo Don’t Miz, and they are AWES-H1M! Coach Miz has Melo fired up, but will the star player win it all?
BREAKING NEWS for Saturday Night’s Main Event!
Since she’s been whining and complaining, Chelsea Green gets her rematch for the WWE Women’s United States Championship! Will the Green Regime have its second term? Or will Zelina Vega refuse to lose to a tyrant?
Solo Sikoa and his family regroup backstage.
Solo says that’s what happens when they are focused and stick to the plan. Aldis walks over to tell them congrats on the win. And he has some exciting news! Next week on SmackDown is the the final Triple Threat qualifier for the Men’s MITB. And Fatu is in! Good luck! Aldis leaves and Fatu grins. Solo says okay, there it is! Congrats, Fatu! Now they can both be in MITB, they can both win! That briefcase is in the bag! Fatu says, “I love you, Solo.” Still not quite how he used to say it. JC asks if Solo is okay with this, and Solo says yeah, it’ll be alright. But does this improve the family’s chances of taking the prize? Or drastically ruin it?
Bianca Belair speaks.
“I read in a book the other day, ‘The only consistent thing in life is change.’ And that really stuck with me. Because I know I try to smile through everything, but if I’m being transparent right now, these past six months have been the most uncomfortable, difficult, challenging, frustrating times in my career. Losing championships, losing friendships, losing my first time at WrestleMania, on top of that getting injured, it has been rough.” Bianca says that she won’t lie to us, she has wanted to give up and say forget it, but then, what kind of example would she be for herself if she let that define her?
So she is going through it, but she’ll get through it. She has been hit from every direction, but she’s still standing. She’s healing in her body, her heart, and she’ll become stronger and wiser. Here is to a new beginning. She has been through so many changes and still came out the person she is today. So to rephrase the quote from earlier, “The only consistent thing in life is change, and me.” She promises us this, her best is yet to come. She returns to SmackDown next week in her hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee, just how much greater will the EST be?
