PLAY BY PLAY
Stephanie Vaquer is here!
The fans cheer for La Primera as she makes her way to the ring, still the NXT Women’s Double Champion! NXT General Manager, Ava, is there to meet her, and she says, “Ever since Stephanie has stepped foot in NXT, she has shown everyone exactly why she is La Primera.” The fans cheer, and Ava says after walking out victorious last week, that shows exactly the caliber Stephanie is. However, given the depth of the NXT Women’s Division, both titles deserve to be defended frequently. The two have put a lot of thought into this, and felt it was not fair for her to continue to do this alone.
The fans boo, but Ava says the decision has been made: Stephanie will relinquish the Women’s North American Championship. The fans boo more, but Ava says a new champion will be decided at Stand & Deliver in a Six Woman Ladder Match, and the qualifiers begin tonight. The fans chant “NO! NO! NO!” but Vaquer assures them she understands that this is not a popular decision. But NXT has given her an opportunity to do the same for everyone else. She really wants to push her NXT Women’s Division, not stop it. The fans do cheer that, and sing “OLE~, OLE OLE OLE~! OLE~, OLE~!”
Vaquer says tonight, she will give up the North American title. But under one condition: She gets to pick who she faces at Stand & Deliver for THE NXT Women’s Championship. The fans like that! Wait, here comes Jordynne Grace! The Juggernaut tells Stephanie that she’s sorry she keeps interrupting, but she’s happy to hear Stephanie gets to choose her opponent. Now that Jaida’s out of the picture, Jordynne and Stephanie can focus on the match everyone has really been looking forward to. For the first time ever on NXT’s biggest stage, Juggernaut VS La Primera. But wait, here comes Miss Parker!
Jaida says hear that? See, Jordynne, “Miss Muscle Mommy,” Jaida being out of the picture is insane. But if Jordynne actually stayed down where Jaida left her ass last time, Jaida would’ve beaten Stephanie, and she’d be here with the NXT Women’s Championship around her little ol’ waist. But Stephanie, baby, it was that close, and we all know it. But go ahead, call your shot. Because when they run this bac- Jordynne interrupts Jaida, and says she had her opportunity. Jaida called her shot, and she fumbled. Now, Jaida may not understand how championships work, seeing as how she’s never held one before…
But Jaida is going to the back of the line. Vaquer says it looks like these two need to work this out. And so the two start throwing shots! Jaida shoves, Jordynne dodges, and then Jordynne puts Jaida on the apron! Jordynne DECKS Jaida, but here comes security! Only for Jordynne to DECK one, and TOSS the other out onto the rest! The fans go nuts as the Juggernaut warns Jaida to watch herself! Jaida says nobody’s scared of Jordynne! Will these two throw down to then move on to Stand & Deliver?
Trick Williams speaks.
Over the weekend, Trick put on his Instagram, “LET’S TALK ABOUT IT OBA,” accompanied by a video. “Yo, what’s good, Oba? I mean, I already made the challenge, boy, but you ain’t hear me? I had Timbs all up in my face, I know you saw it. I ain’t no little punk like Je’Von that you can just throw around, you know where to find me: On Tuesday in the ring so we can talk about my NXT title, Stand & Deliver. Let’s talk about it.”
Backstage interview with Oba Femi.
Sarah Schreiber catches the NXT Champion as he’s arriving and asks about Trick’s post calling Oba out, claiming Oba doesn’t respect him. Oba says he doesn’t care what Trick said, because Trick is not the champion, OBA IS. Oba does not answer to Trick, Trick answers to Oba. Trick waits on Oba. Tonight, Trick gets Oba’s final verdict, and finds out the hard way why you don’t call out The Ruler. Oba moves on, what will he have to say to the former champion?
The NXT Women’s Division talks.
After that big announcement from Ava, Arianna Grace says she would do this, but ladder matches are dangerous. Fallon Henley says no one cares what Arianna thinks. She is ready to qualify and get her title back. She and Jazmyn Nyx high-five, but Lola Vice says no one wants Fallon as champ again. This is Lola’s opportunity. Cora Jade says like Lola would know what to do with that title, other than shake her ass with it. The locker room gets real fired up now! But who will put money where their mouths are and head for Las Vegas?
NXT Women’s North American Championship Ladder Match Qualifier: Zaria w/ Sol Ruca VS Lash Legend w/ Jakara Jackson!
With just three Tuesdays left before WrestleMania Weekend, it is time to shuffle the deck and deal out the opportunities. Will the Agent of Change be the first to punch her ticket? Or will the Bougie Bully make her pump the brakes?
The bell rings and Zaria circles with Lash. They tie up, go around, and end up on the ropes. Then they move off the ropes, break, and the fans cheer the stare down. Lash and Zaria tie up again, Lash waistlocks and SLAMS! Lash styles on Zaria, eggs her on, and puts up the hand for a knuckle lock. Zaria obliges, they go shoulder to shoulder for a Test of Strength, and Zaria bends Lash back! Lash fights up to bend Zaria back! Zaria powers up again, and the fans fire up as she roars! Lash gets under to BACKDROP! Cover, ONE!! Lash stands Zaria up to whip her to ropes. Zaria slips around to crucifix but Lash stays up!
Zaria shifts to a sunset flip, but Lash stays up to YANK Zaria up! Zaria CHOPS Lash! Lash frowns and CHOPS back! The fans fire up for that one! Zaria CHOPS, Lash swings, but Zaria dodges to jump on! Lash fights the Guillotine, but she drops to a knee! Lash powers up again to lift and put Zaria on the apron! Zaria RAMS into Lash, then slingshots up and over to sunset flip! TWO! Lash hurries up, but Zaria scoops! Lash slips free, scoops Zaria, and SLAMS her! Lash then runs, but Zaria avoid the elbow drop! Zaria returns, but Lash dodges the elbow drop! Lash kips up and the fans fire up! But Zaria kips, not quite as clean.
Lash clamps onto Zaria’s neck, Zaria returns the favor! Lash fires KNEE after KNEE, then CHOKE- NO, Zaria victory rolls it! TWO, and Lash PUMP KICKS Zaria out of the ring! Jakara talks trash, but Sol storms up to back her off. Lash storms out to back Jakara up, and NXT goes to break.
NXT returns and Zaria endures a bearhug! Zaria fights free, runs, but Lash ROCKS her! Zaria leans on the ropes, Lash drags her up to torture rack. Zaria endures the backbreaker stretch, even as Lash puts on the pressure. Zaria pries at the grip, Lash THROWS her, but Zaria lands out! Lash dodges Zaria’s lariat, and then DOUBLE LARIATS take both women down! The fans fire up for “NXT! NXT!” while the ref checks Lash and Zaria. They both rise up, and Zaria fires a haymaker! Lash fires back! Zaria fires another! Lash fires back! The shots keep going, Zaria gets the edge, and she brings Lash around, but Lash THROWS Zaria down!
Lash and Zaria are both running low on energy, but Lash gets Zaria up. Zaria fights the suplex, but so does Lash! They fight for control, and ZARIA suplexes up and over! Lash goes to a corner, Zaria runs in to LARIAT! Zaria whips corner to corner but Lash reverses. Lash runs up, but into a BOOT! Zaria hops up, Lash stands, Zaria CROSSBODIES! But Lash catches her! SWINGING BACKBREAKER! And then Lash reels Zaria in, but Zaria RANAS free of the bomb! Then she BOOTS Lash! And GERMAN SUPLEXES! The fans fire up while Lash flounders up. Zaria runs up, but Lash hurdles!
Zaria hotshots off ropes, Lash grabs her by the neck! SLAM DUNK CHOKE SLAM! Cover, TWO!?! Zaria survives, Jakara is frustrated, but the fans know “This is Awesome!” Lash hauls Zaria up, gets her in the Bow ‘n’ Arrow Rack, LASH EX- NO, Zaria lands out to fireman’s carry! DELTA- NO, Lash slips free, shoves, but Zaria dodges the boot! SPEAR!! Zaria fireman’s carries again, DELTA FORCE! Cover, Zaria wins!
Winner: Zaria, by pinfall (advances to Stand & Deliver)
It was a clash of titans, but Zaria just hit the jackpot! Will Zaria now rise above and claim the Women’s North American Championship for her own?
Josh Briggs & Yoshiki Inamura watch backstage.
They’re both impressed by that match, and Zaria moving on to Stand & Deliver, that’s Inamura’s dream. Briggs says they’ll get there, he promises. Wes Lee walks in with Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont, and they all mock Briggs, “We’re gonna get there!” Lower your expectations. Take it from someone who’s actually won at Stand & Deliver. Briggs asks Wes who he thinks he is talking to, and Wes says he’s talking to them! Wes literally broke his back carrying this brand, so he’ll talk to whoever however he wants. Briggs says Wes ain’t tough! Inamura steps up and says he used to like how Wes Lee wrestled.
Wes doesn’t get what Inamura’s talking about. Inamura says Wes used to have honor. But tonight, Wes and Inamura will fight. Wes says he has honor. He’ll honor that request. But just like those Stand & Deliver pipe dreams, Inamura needs to prepare for disappointment. The Wes Side heads out, will the Cardiac Kid learn what it is to feel the Great Rush?
Kelani Jordan speaks with Ava.
Kelani says history will repeat itself in Las Vegas. She climbed to the top of that ladder to become the inaugural champion, and she plans on doing it again. This is actually perfect- Roxanne Perez interrupts and says this is perfect for her. Wait, Roxie agrees? Yes! Absolutely! At Stand & Deliver, when Roxie is on top of the ladder and brings down that title, she’ll be the first woman to have won everything in NXT. Kelani says yeah, we get it, Roxie. You’re great. But over Kelani’s dead body will she be another stepping stone in the story book of Roxie. Roxie had her shine, and Kelani doesn’t care how she does it, she’ll get hers.
It doesn’t matter if Kelani has to take it from Roxie, but that’ll make it even better. Wow! Kelani finally grew a spine. But guess what? “The Prodigy” and “History maker” are synonymous here, so even with that new attitude, Kelani- Ava says no, it’s only going to be one of them in that ladder match, as they’re facing each other in tonight’s second qualifier. Well, that’s even more perfect! Roxie heads out, but will The Prodigy be one step closer to completing NXT Bingo? Or will The Standout stand tall over the most accomplished woman in NXT history?
The D’Angelo Family meets.
They all sit at the table, and The Don asks what they have for him. Luca Crusifino says first up: Dion Lennox. A bit of a puzzle. 6’2″, 248 pounds, came into NXT as a bookworm, but that was just to fool everyone. He was also a former linebacker for Oregon State University, a three-time team captain. And apparently, a snake. Yes, but he’s also got a mouth. Luca was talking with Dion’s former teammates, and turns out he has a temper. Dion even broke a teammate’s jaw for missing a formation. But Dion also has brains, as he has multiple college degrees specializing in psychology. A manipulator who’s also explosive. A powerful combination.
Tony says, “Bookworm Clark Kent my ass.” Luca says it’s clearly how Dion got Dark State together. Who’s next? Osiris Griffin. 6’3″, 280 pounds, former All ACC Defensive Lineman out of Syracuse. 150 tackles in 60 games played, and broke his own QB’s ribs in the Spring Training game. Brash, but not dumb. His high school coach told Luca that Osiris has great instincts for his opponent’s next move. Well, he’s the thinker of the group. But they can tire him out. Next is Cutler James. Adriana Rizzo found he’s a high-level wrestler out of Duke. Tony knew he didn’t like this kid.
But he’s an academic All American with a limitless gas tank. This guy likes breaking his opponent’s will and body. Cutler did Spartan Races, carrying logs on his back running through the mud. Tony gets it, he’s seen that stuff. Swim through ice water, walk on fire. Like a wannabe John Wick or something. Lastly, Stacks has Saquon Shugars. The wild card. A real slick city kid from DC. Wrestled in high school but got his degree from the streets. But that’s not cuz he’s a dummy, he turned down a scholarship to Harvard. Why? Not sure, but Stacks used a lot of connections and favors for this one. The word is, people follow him, they listen.
Out of fear? No, he’s a charmer. He gets people to feel like they’re his best friend since they were in diapers. When he’s done with ’em, he dips and moves on. Then this isn’t just a bunch of meatballs wanting TV time. These are some serious badasses. But here’s what they’ll do. Take the fight to them. Fire with fire! Tony enjoys the enthusiasm, but- Stacks says no, T, they dangerous! Tony says Stacks is letting his temper talk for him. They all want at these guys. But the last time Stacks put together a plan, it didn’t work out so well. So Stacks needs to trust Tony like Tony’s trusted Stacks. Can Stacks trust Tony? Stacks says yeah.
Good. Now, Tony will review all this, and he appreciates the work. Keep it up. The Family heads out, but Stacks still seems worried. Will the Underboss just have to trust the process? Or will Dark State get the better of them again?
Hank ‘n’ Tank talk.
They aren’t really sure this is the change they need to succeed… Zoom out, and they’re wearing Pretty Deadly style crop tops! Kit Wilson & Elton Prince say of course this will work! Look at them! As former NXT and NXT UK Tag Team Champions, Pretty Deadly know what it takes. To be stars, you gotta look like stars! Because the stars are bright, they shine! #YesBoy! Hank ‘n’ Tank do the Scott Hall fingers like Pretty Deadly, and Elton says if you want to be “The Team,” you need to BE the team! Just like how you can’t just say “Honk Honk,” you gotta FEEL the Honk Honk! That’s tag team wrestling! FEEL IT! FEEL IT!
Hank does feel something. Does Tank feel it? No Quarter Catch Crew walks by to see this, and Tavion Heights says he feels Hank ‘n’ Tank are about to get their asses kicked. Myles Borne adds, “Again.” NQCC heads out, Hank ‘n’ Tank throw the crop tops off. Elton says you can lead a horse to water but can’t make it drink. Pretty Deadly is still confident in Hank ‘n’ Tank, but will the big belly boys go the distance with Myles & Heights?
The Culling speaks.
Niko Vance says, “Anger, rage, aggression. To much of the world, those are glaring negatives. But not to you. You were the first to see that it was a strength of mine.” Brooks Jensen says, “Finding true purpose and meaning in life, you gave me the roadmap to my new life. So now, you gotta retrace your steps and find victory tonight.” Izzi Dame says, “You brought us all together, and look at us now. We’re a family. Four equal legs of a chair, but it’s all in support of you and your efforts tonight as North American Champion, representing The Culling.”
Shawn Spears says, “I’d like to use the cliche of how much I truly admire each and every one of you and your unique skillsets, but you’re all aware of how much I cherish you all. Tonight, those skills and those traits that I’ve passed along to you, that we’ve passed along to each other, I’ll use to vanquish Ricky Saints.” The Chair Man is ready for the main event, but will he be ready for the Absolute Revolution?
Hank ‘n’ Tank VS Myles Borne & Tavion Heights w/ No Quarter Catch Crew!
The pursuit for tag team greatness continues, but perhaps Walker & Ledger are trying a little too hard? Will they figure out what works for them? Or will they get no quarter from Myles & Heights tonight?
The teams sort out, Tank and Myles start, and the fans rally up. They circle, tie up, and Myles headlocks. Tank powers up and out, RAMS shoulders with Myles, and the fans cheer. Myles shoots in, waistlocks then headlocks, then wrenches and YANK the arm. Tag to Heights, Myles whips Tank to ropes then drop toeholds him, with Heights right on Tank for a headlock! The fans cheer that quick combo, but Tank endures the hold. Tank fights up, pries the hold open, but Tavion fires a body shot. Tavion whips Tank to a corner, but Tank goes up and over to CROSSBODY! Tank bumps Tavion off buckles, tags Hank, and the fans rally.
Hank ‘n’ Tank whip, doubloe kick, and DOUBLE AX HANDLE! Then they stomp the hands, “Yes Boy~!” Myles runs up but Hank CLOBBERS him! “Yes Boy~!” Hank ‘n’ Tank then run, SPLASH LEG DROP COMBO! The fans fire up, Hank dodges Tavion to then LARIAT in the corner! Hank runs side to side, tags Tank, then back body blocks Tavion! Snapmare and HONK HONK, BIG BELLY SANDWICH! Cover, TWO! Tank clamps onto Tavion with a facelock, Hank tags in, and Hank goes up to AX HANDLE the arm! Hank brings Tavion around, whips, but Tavion reverses. Hank ducks the lariat, Myles tags in, but Tavion swings agian!
Hank dodges, then he DUMPS Tavion out! Tavion holds onto the bottom rope, Myles LARIATS Hank up and out! Tank protests, the ref keeps him back, but that lets Tavion beat up on Hank! Tavion SMACKS Hank off the apron, puts him in for Myles, and Myles UPPERCUTS! Myles CLUBS Hank, UPPERCUTS again, then tags Tavion. They whip Hank to then LARIAT! Cover, TWO! Hank stays in this, but Tavion stays on him. Tavion drags Hank up, whips, and LARIATS Hank against the ropes! Tavion says one more time, and he whips Hank again. LARIAT on the ropes, Tavion covers, TWO! The fans rally while Tavion clamps on with a chinlock.
Hank endures, fights up, and the fans rally again. Hank fires body shots, reaches out, but Tavion rolls Hank! TWO, and Hank dodges! Hot tag to Tank! Tank rallies on Tavion, BLASTS Myles, and LARIATS Tavion! LARIAT again and Tank fires up! The fans are with Tank, he dodges Tavion to SNAP BELLY2BELLY! Tank dodges Myles to go up, out, and ROCK him! Then he LARIATS Myles into the ring! The fans fire up as Tank fires up, slingshot SPALSH! Tavion runs up, Tank dodges to go up, up and FLYING SHOULDER TACKLE! The fans fire up, Tank drags Tavion up for a FISHERMN SPINEBUSTER! Cover, Myles breaks it!
The fans are torn, but here comes Hank! Hank ROCKS Myles with haymaker after haymaker! Hank TOSSES Myles out, then says, “Yes Boy~!” with Tank! Tank hauls Tavion up, Hank runs, but Myles is back! DROPKICK! Hank falls out of the ring, Tavion fireman’s carries Tank! Tag to Myles, and they hit the DEATH VALLEY DDT! Cover, NQCC wins!
Winners: Myles Borne & Tavion Heights, by pinfall
Hank ‘n’ Tank had this, until they tried to do things like another team. Will they ever sort out what their style is? Will NQCC grab the NXT Tag Team Championships before they do?
Trick Williams heads to the ring!
The fans chant “Whoop Dat Trick!” while Booker T adds his usual commentary, “Aw yeah, man~!” Trick goes right to the ring, he grabs the mic, and Trick says let’s be clear. Last week, he called Oba out, and he ain’t heard from Oba since. But Oba, don’t get it twisted. Even if you are NXT Champion, Trick is still the man! Trick’s been the man ever since he decided to be his own man. Trick fought for this! Trick sacrificed for this! And he lost a brother for this. Trick did all that just to make this to the Whoop Dat Era! Trick did all that just to make this the Trick Williams Show. This may be on CW, but don’t get it twisted, tonight you tune into the TW! Oba, Trick IS HIM!
The fans cheer for that, and Trick says all this comes at a cost. Trick feels all the hate. Y’all don’t want him to shine? Y’all don’t want him to be the dawg? Y’all don’t want him to return to the top? He gets it now. But wait! Je’Von Evans is here! And the Young OG tells Trick no no no. Trick says don’t come out here interrupting. Trick gets why Je’Von is upset and all, but hey. That is just collateral damage. This is Stand & Deliver Season, it is time for the grown folks to talk. Je’Von says he ain’t gonna lie, he was trippin’ about what Trick did last week. But then Je’Von finally realized something. Je’Von truly understands Trick now.
Je’Von wants to ask Trick a question: When did Trick know it was his time? Sounds familiar, right? Je’Von gets it, because this time last year, Trick was Je’Von. When Trick Willy wanted the title, he became NXT’s golden child. That sounds familiar, too, don’t it? Yeah? And just like Trick, Je’Von wants that number one spot. But the difference between them is… Je’Von doesn’t need to break out of someone’s shadow to get to that spot. Je’Von’s ready right now. Trick says the crazy thing is, Je’Von is in Trick’s shadow right now! What does Je’Von know about being champion, dawg? About selling tickets? Doing media? Having the brand on your back? Je’Von can’t relate!
What does Je’Von know about being The A Champion? Winning a title is great, but carrying the title and defending the title, those are a whole ‘nother ball game. And Je’Von can’t hold that title like Trick can! Trick is one of one, believe that! Oh, one of one? Hmm… Trick says he’s The A Champion? Hmm… “Trick, you don’t know who the hell you is, do you? Bruh, you ain’t Trick Williams. You Carmelo Hayes.” UH OH! Je’Von says yeah, he went there. And it makes sense. Because everything that Trick is telling Je’Von right now, was everything Melo was telling Trick a year ago. And if you ask Je’Von, that makes Trick a hypocrite!
So if Trick is gonna try and water Je’Von down just to make himself feel better, since he wants to talk about it, Je’Von has done something that no one has done, including Trick. That’s drop Oba Femi! But wait! Here comes Oba now! Oba tells Je’Von to do a favor and say that nonsense to his face! Je’Von really thinks he did something that matters? Oh, congratulations, you got a lucky shot! Never again! Je’Von says stop playing like he ain’t got your number. Did anyone forget about Deadline? Cuz at Deadline, if we’re checking history, Je’Von only needed one more second to change history. Only one more second.
And then Oba wouldn’t have beat Trick for the title, cuz Je’Von would’ve had it. As a matter of fact, Je’Von will drop Oba again to become NXT Champion in Vegas! Trick says better luck next year, kid. Oba tells Trick that he’s talked enough! The champion is here, it is his turn to speak. As for Je’Von, when Oba looks at him, all Oba sees is a small boy with big aspirations and dreams. And while he might be the future, Je’Von’s success will not be at the expense of The Ruler at Stand & Deliver. Because whether Je’Von likes it or not, he lives in the present! He lives in the now, and the now belongs to OBA FEMI.
Trick says yeah, that’s what he’s talking ’bout. Stand & Deliver Season, NXT Championship, Oba VS Trick. And for the last time, Je’Von, please excuse yourself. Je’Von steps up and asks, “Or what?” But Oba holds Je’Von back with one hand and tells Trick that if Trick spent less time talking, maybe he’d still be champion. But he’s not. And clearly, both men want their shot at the championship… Wait! Ava is here to say she’s seen this before. There is only one way that this will end. Stand & Deliver, Oba will defend the NXT Championship against Trick Williams… AND Je’Von Evans in a Triple Threat! Je’Von likes that! But then Trick DECKS him!
Oba turns Trick around to ROCK him with haymakers! These two brawl, Oba LARIATS Trick up and out! Oba is fired up, but OH NO! DARK STATE IS HERE! Osiris, Saquon, Cutler & Dion storm down from the bleachers, and they mug Oba 4v1! Je’Von gets up, but he just gets added to the hit list! CATAPUT DOUBLE BACKDROP for the Young OG! And a BOOT from Osiris to Oba! Trick storms into the ring, and he looks at all four goons. Trick fires hands but he gets mugged 4v1! They stand Trick up, and hit him with the QUAD BOMB!! Dark State strikes, #NoOneIsSafe!
Andre Chase visits NXT Medical.
Mr. Chase says he can’t take any deep breaths, has a limited range of motion, and the doc says Chase clearly suffered a cracked rib in the match with Ethan Page. And he knows Chase wants a timeline on his return, but there’s no telling with cracked ribs. Does Chase have a ride home? Chase says he’s all alone. But then Kale Dixon & Uriah Connors walk in. They tell him he’s not alone. They’ve got him! They even brought a wheelchair. Chase appreciates that and accepts the help. Chase says they’re not so bad after all. But then look out, there’s chaos going on! Jaida and Jordynne are brawling through the back!
Jaida RAMS Jordynne into the garage door, the refs tell her to back off and Jaida says okay, she’s good. But then Jaida runs up! Jordynne dodges, the Hip-Notic hits the door! Jordynne jumps on for a SLEEPER! More refs hurry over, these two are pulled apart, but will they not stop until one of them stays down?
Fraxiom cross paths with Hank ‘n’ Tank.
Nathan Frazer tells them that whatever they had going for them, they clearly lost it. Axiom asks Frazer why he’s so rude. Frazer says c’mon, they can’t lie to them. Well, okay, but at least be supportive. What’s not supportive about telling them the truth? And the truth is, they’re just embarrassing themselves. Axiom says fine, here’s some truth. While Fraxiom may have the tag titles, Axiom does wish they had a friendship more like Hank ‘n’ Tank. Frazer says wow, okay. Hank ‘n’ Tank say “thanks” for the pep talk, then they move on. And then in step Brad Baylor & Ricky Smokes, aka Swipe Right.
Brad says he knows they haven’t met, but they make proper introductions. And the deal is, they’re kinda the hottest new thing via WWE Evolve. And when they look at Fraxiom, they see them as their Hardy Boyz. See, Swipe Right runs Evolve, Fraxiom runs NXT, so Swipe Right just wants to see how they measure up. #Hundos! Frazer says he and his amigo don’t back down from a challenge, so you’re on. Nice! And Fraxiom must crush it with the ladies with those accents, right? Oh, speaking of ladies, Roxie passes by. Brad says there is a lot of “talent” here. Roxie may be a Prodigy, but she’s also a smoke show. Ricky says that’s hundo for sho’, bro bro.
Swipe Right tells Fraxiom, “See you next week.” Brad & Ricky head out, but are they really ready to evolve into NXT stars so soon? Or will Frazer & Axiom show them that they need a little more time to level up?
NXT Women’s North American Championship Ladder Match Qualifier: Kelani Jordan VS Roxanne Perez!
The inaugural NXT Women’s North American Champion battles the most accomplished woman in NXT history, and this alone could be the title match. But only one moves on, so who leaves the other behind to Stand & Deliver?
The bell rings, the two tie up, and they go around. Kelani pushes Roxie back but Roxie puts her in the corner. Roxie goes up the corner, the ref counts, but Roxie lets off the collar ‘n’ elbow. But Kelani shoves Roxie down! Roxie comes back, Kelani wrenches and headlocks to hit a takeover. Roxie headscissors and pushes up for pressure, only for Kelani to headscissor back! Roxie headscissors again, but then so does Kelani! Roxie moves around, jackknife bridges, TWO as Kelani bridges up! Kelani turns things around, but Roxie trips Kelani up! Cover, ONE, and Kelani sweeps! Cover, ONE, and Roxie kips up!
Kelani kips up smooth, the fans fire up, and Roxie is annoyed. The two reset, but NXT goes to break.
NXT returns and the fans duel. Roxie headlocks Kelani, but Kelani powers up and out. Roxie throws Kelani down by her hair! The fans are torn, Roxie runs, but Kelani does the splits! Roxie cartwheels over and then takes a bow. Kelani is annoyed, and she blocks the haymaker to trap an arm! Kelani then slaps the other arm, and she SLAPS Roxie! The fans fire up, Kelani runs up and SLINGSHOT ARM-DRAGS! Roxie tumbles, Kelani DROPKICKS her to a corner! Kelani has Roxie on the apron, then in the ropes for a KNEE SMASH, and a POMMEL LEG DROP! Cover, TWO! Roxie stays in this and Kelani grows frustrated.
Kelani stalks Roxie to ropes, drags her back in, but Roxie has the apron skirt! The ref counts, Roxie lets go, and while the ref is busy with the apron skirt, Roxie CLAWS Kelani’s eyes! The fans are torn, but Roxie then POSTS Kelani! Kelani flops to the apron, Roxie goes out the other side, and she has Kelani through the corner! Roxie stands on the arm, then DOUBLE STOMPS it!! Kelani writhes but this is the way Roxie beat Jordynne Grace, so why not do it to Kelani? Roxie drops KNEES on the bad arm, the fans duel more, and Kelani crawls to ropes. Roxie stomps and kicks away, but the ref counts. Roxie stops at 4 to then stand on Kelani!
The ref counts again, Roxie steps off, and then JUMP STOMPS! Cover, TWO! Kelani stays in this but Roxie is almost amused. Roxie goes after Kelani in the corner, and wraps the bad arm around ropes! Roxie pulls and YANKS on the arm, then soaks up the cheers and jeers. Roxie drags Kelani up, hammerlocks the arm, and she RAMS Kelani into buckles! The fans duel while Kelani flounders, but Roxie hammerlocks the arm again. Roxie whips, Kelani reverses and sends Roxie into buckles! Kelani reels Roxie into a cradle, TWO! Roxie runs up, goes for the arm, but then waistlocks. Kelani switches, O’Conner Rolls, TWO!
Kelani is sent into buckles again! Roxie storms up on Kelani, grabs the arm, and shoves Kelani down so she can stand on the shoulder! Kelani endures, but Roxie turns her over to KNEE- NO, Kelani avoids the knee drop! Roxie hobbles, and Kelani fires body shots! Kelani ROCKS Roxie, ROCKS her again, then ROCKS her again! Kelani whips, Roxie reverses and UPPERCUTS the bad arm! Roxie wrenches and KNEES the bad arm! Then she hammerlocks the arm, and NORTHERN LIGHTS! Kelani writhes, Roxie covers, TWO! Kelani toughs it out and Roxie seethes, but NXT goes picture in picture.
Roxie stalks Kelani, drags her up, and SMACKS her off the mat! Roxie CLUBS the bad arm, then kneels on the shoulder to pull on it! Kelani endures, so Roxie YANKS back on the arm! Cover, TWO!! Kelani is still in this, but Roxie stays on her with a chicken wing armlock! Kelani endures, fights around, but Roxie slips around to hammerlock. Kelani reaches back to FLYING-MARE! Roxie tumbles into a corner, Kelani runs in, but Roxie puts her on the apron! Roxie then HOTSHOTS the bad arm! Kelani slumps down on the apron, but Roxie drags her back through the corner. Roxie stands on Kelani’s hand, but Kelani TRIPS Roxie!
Kelani crawls away, Roxie pursues, but Kelani ROCKS Roxie! Roxie ROCKS Kelani! Kelani ROCKS Roxie again! Roxie ROCKS Kelani again! The forearms keep going, but Kelani gets the edge! Kelani whips, then CLOBBERS Roxie! And CLOBBERS her again! Cartwheel BACK ELBOW! Kelani kips up and she storms up on Roxie. Kelani reels Roxie in, but Roxie wrenches and WRINGS the arm! Then she SHOTGUNS Kelani down! Kelani flounders out of the ring, but Roxie builds speed! Roxie DIVES, and down goes Kelani at the ramp! Roxie hurries to drag Kelani up and into the ring! Roxie points to the belt and says that’s already hers.
Roxie storms up to the apron, but Kelani DROPKICKS her down again! Kelani aims, and she TORNILLO PLANCHAS! Down goes Roxie! Kelani hurries to put Roxie back in, and she gets moving, SPLASH DOWN! Roxie staggers up, into an X FACTOR! NXT returns to single picture as Kelani covers, TWO!! Roxie survives and Kelani is beside herself! Kelani hauls Roxie up, torture racks her, and the fans duel for the TOWER HACKER- ARM-DRAG from Roxie! Roxie then snatches Kelani, but Kelani fights the takedown! Kelani rolls Roxie up, TWO, and Roxie SOB- NO, Kelani blocks the kick! Step over, WHEEL KICK!
The fans rally as Kelani goes up the corner! ONE OF A KIND- FLOP!! Roxie avoids the RVD style moonsault to handspring and KNEE DROP! Roxie shouts out Meiko Satomura with that one, and she pushes Kelani to a cover, TWO! The fans fire up and Roxie is furious! Roxie tells Kelani that she is NOT on Roxie’s level! Then she SLAPS Kelani! The fans fire up as Kelani scowls. Roxie is worried, and Kelani fires off fast hands! Roxie SOBATS, runs, and hops on, but Kelani pops out the back! Roxie waistlocks, Kelani grabs ropes, and the ref counts. Kelani mule kicks Roxie’s legs! Then Kealni hits a BASEMENT DDT!
Kelani has Roxie in the drop zone! Up, up, and ONE OF A KIND! Cover, KELANI WINS!
Winner: Kelani Jordan, by pinfall (advances to Stand & Deliver)
The Standout takes down The Prodigy, but this was just the first hurdle! Will Kelani become the first-ever TWO-TIME NXT Women’s North American Champion?
Ava meets with Robert Stone & Stevie Turner.
The newly appointed Evolve General Manager tells the NXT General Manager that she apologizes for Swipe Right. Ever since Ava put Stevie in charge, Brad & Ricky have been nothing but a headache every Wednesday. She had no idea they were even showing up tonight. Stone says just deal with them tomorrow night then. For now, we should be talking Stand & Deliver. The Triple Threat for the NXT Championship, a Six Woman Ladder Match for the NEW Women’s North American Champion, and now Vaquer gets to choose her own opponent?! Ava says all of that is great, but her real focus right now is Dark State. We’ve all seen what they’ve done.
If they’re trying to intimidate Ava, that won’t work. They keep saying they don’t wanna wait, then fine. Six Man Tag: Any three of them can compete. But against who? Ava says it’ll be THE main event of Stand & Deliver, Oba, Trick & Je’Von. Wow, okay. That’s huge. But will Oba, Trick & Je’Von even bother working together? Or can they focus on common enemies before fighting each other?
Backstage interview with Ricky Saints.
Sarah Schreiber is with The Absolute, and says he already has his first ever title opportunity here in NXT against Shawn Spears. The last time we saw Ricky, Spears blindsided him in more ways than one. Ricky says c’mon, can’t she see this chiseled jaw? It’s gonna take a lot more than that to put him out. If anything, it lit a fire under him! Spears wants to talk about their history, he wants to bring up their past like Spears knows Ricky? Spears knows nothing, jack! Ricky ain’t worried about no past, only the future, and you’re looking at him! The future says that Ricky’s gonna be dripping with gold tonight!
Spears took a very long time to even taste glory! Meanwhile, Ricky is gonna do it in record time when he marries destiny! Spears and everyone else will really see that The Revolution is indeed televised, because Ricky Saints will be the NEW North American Champion tonight! Ricky heads out, and that main event is next! Will NXT be Absolute?
Zaria & Sol Ruca talk backstage.
Zaria feels good as being the first to qualify for Stand & Deliver, and Sol is proud of her. Zaria knows Sol didn’t become Women’s US Champion, but Zaria would love to have Sol with her at Stand & Deliver. Sol says she’ll definitely be there. Kelani walks by and asks if they saw that. She just beat one of the greatest champions in NXT history! Yeah, they saw, that was awesome. Kelani says she’s already calling her shot. She WILL be Women’s North American Champion again. Zaria says she loves the confidence and all, but not this time. Sol says it is either her or Zaria who become the NEW Women’s North American Champion.
Zaria asks what Sol means by that. Sol says her qualify is next week, didn’t Zaria hear? So they can both go to Vegas together. Kelani says nice people finish last, ain’t that right? Okay, Kelani, just stop. Kelani will not drive a wedge between #ZaRuca. Yeah, not worth her time. Kelani leaves, and Zaria thinks on that new team name Sol just came up with. She doesn’t mind it. Sol knew she’d like it. But will ZaRuca both Stand & Deliver? And what will happen in the ladder match if they do?
Dark State speaks.
Saquon Shugar says, “What? Y’all thought you had it figured out?! Ey, ey, Cutty, talk to they ass!” Cutler James says, “No one knows how Dark State’s gonna move, and no one knows when Dark State’s gonna strike. But there’s one thing you should know: No one is safe.” Dion Lennox shouts, “Ava, you ain’t give us no match! We forced your hand! We got the whole locker room looking over they shoulders, for US!” Osiris says, “Giving us a match against the three top dogs of NXT? That sounds like war to us. But hey, is Tony D gonna be watching?”
Saquon says The D’Angelos can do all they can to find out who Dark State is, but Dark State is real, real simple, man! Four men, one goal, and next week, they taking it all! Will these wild cards trump the Stand & Deliver main event? Or will Oba, Trick & Je’Von make sure to knock down their house of cards?
NXT North American Championship: Shawn Spears w/ The Culling VS Ricky Saints!
Ever since his return to NXT, The Chair Man has been about exposing painful truths and twisting them to fit his goals. But will he continue to sow seeds of discord and reap the rewards? Or will he find he can’t twist an Absolute?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if the past loses to the future!
The bell rings and Spears bails right out. But Saints DIVES! Direct hit into Spears, and then Saints fires off haymakers! The Culling goes running as Saints ROCKS Spears and CHOPS him! Saints CHOPS again, then ROCKS Spears! Spears hurries into the ring, but Saints hurries to fire hands! Saints whips, but Spears grabs ropes to avoid the dropkick! Spears runs, but into Saints’ DROPKICK! The fans fire up, Saints bumps Spears off buckles, and Saints fires off fast hands! The ref counts but Saints DECKS Spears! Spears flounders out of the ring but Saints pursues. Saints is on the apron, and he leaps, but into a kick down low!
Spears reels Saints in, but Saints BACKDROPS free! The fans fire up as Saints knuckle locks, then goes up onto the barrier! Saints gives the fans some Old School up close and personal! The fans fire up as Saints then AX HANDLES Spears down! Saints gets back on the barriers to strut some more, and the fans cheer as he does his pose! Saints is feeling good while NXT goes picture in picture.
Saints drags Spears up, puts him in the ring, and tells The Culling to back off. Saints climbs, but Spears jumps up after him! SUPER OVERHEAD SUPLEX! Saints goes flying, then flounders into the far corner. Spears storms up, rains down fists, then pulls his kneepad down! Spears hoists Saints up to BACKBREAKER! Saints writhes, Spears pulls his kneepad back up, and then Spears goes outside. Saints crawls while Spears repositions the steel steps. Spears then storms back in and TOSSES Saints out! The ref reprimands but Spears goes out to stands Saints up. Saints ROCKS Spears! And ROCKS him again!
Saints whips, Spears reverses, but Saints hops up and over the steps! Then he comes back and leaps off the steps, only for Spears to SUPERKICK him down! Saints flops back, but Spears drags him up and brings him to the steps. BACKBREAKEARÂ on the steel steps! The ref reprimands but the damage is done! Saints flops to the floor while Spears mocks the pose. Spears then hobbles over to bring Saints back up. Spears puts Saints in the ring, covers, TWO! Saints is tougher than that, but Spears stays calm. Spears drags Saints up and ROCKS him in the lower back! Spears stalks Saints, drags him back up, and ROCKS him again!
NXT returns to single picture, and Spears has Saints up again. But Saints fires a body shot! And a CHOP! And a CHOP! Saints whips, Spears reverses, and Saints hits buckles hard! Saints slumps down but Spears is right on him! Spears rains down fists, then lets off to soak up the heat. The Culling taunt Saints, and Spears scoops for a SLAM! The fans boo while Spears steps back outside. Spears climbs up the corner while The Culling cheers. But saints ROCKS Spears first! Spears ROCKS Saints again, then climbs up to CLUB Spears again and again! Saints brings Spears up, but Spears fires body shots!
Saints ROCKS Spears with forearm after forearm, then tries again. They go to the very top, for a SUPER DUPER JACKHAMMER!! The fans lose their minds, but Saints can’t the cover! Spears crawls away, he and Saints rise, and Spears throws a haymaker! “This is Awesome!” as Saints hits back! The two go back and forth, shot for shot, then Spears CHOPS! Saints CHOPS Spears! And CHOPS again! Saints ROCKS Spears, whips, but Spears reverses. Saints comes back to LARIAT! And LARIAT! Spears tries, Saints dodges and DROPKICKS! Spears goes to a corner, Saints runs in, ELBOW!

Fireman’s carry in return, Saints steals C4!! Jensen gets on the apron, but Saints TOSSES him in! Niko is up, Saints BLASTS him! Saints LARIATS Jensen up and out, then goes out to SPEAR Niko!! Saints is all fired up, and he gets in the ring! Spears takes a swing, Saints dodges, and he SPEARS Spears!! Then a gut wrench and ROSHAMBEAUX!! Cover, SAINTS WINS!!
Winner: Ricky Saints, by pinfall (NEW NXT North American Champion)
Izzi is furious, but she has no choice but to hand over the belt! The Chair Man will now have to accept the painful truth that NXT is Absolute! The fans chant “You Deserve It!” and Ricky nods, but ETHAN PAGE ATTACKS! TWISTED GRIN!! The fans boo as All Ego ruins Ricky’s moment! Ethan smiles as he holds up the belt, will he be the one to Stand & Deliver?
My Thoughts:
A great NXT, and their Stand & Deliver build is clearly going down to the wire here. A little disappointing that Vaquer relinquishes the Women’s North American Championship, but she already made history be becoming the Double Champion and surviving a double header. So now, she will focus on her title, and clearly it is going to be Jordynne Grace for Stand & Deliver. Jordynne and Jaida had great stuff, they’ll have a match, and Jordynne will win to stand out as the clear choice for Vaquer, unless Giulia suddenly returns. This entire WrestleMania Weekend in Vegas is slowly becoming about Triple Threats and bigger (as it should in my opinion), so why not one for the women?
After all, we’re also getting one for the men. Oba, Trick and Je’Von had a very good promo segment, and while it of course became a brawl, Dark State jumping in on it was fitting, too. But with that, there goes my theory that maybe, just maybe, Trick was secretly in charge of Dark State. They mugged him just as bad as the others, so it’s all just the four of them doing this on their own. Good promo from The D’Angelo Family to help the audience understand who Dion, Osiris, Cutler & Saquon are, and regardless of how Dark State VS Oba, Trick & Je’Von goes, we will surely get a Six Man Tag of Dark State VS D’Angelo Family, and that will be a make or break moment for the D’Angelo Family as Stacks and Tony continue to disagree on things.
Back to the Women’s North American Championship, this coming ladder match really is the best move, as we just got some awesome stuff out of qualifiers. When the qualifiers are this great, you can bet the ladder match will be amazing. Kelani getting that win over Roxie was also the right choice, as Roxie doesn’t really need another NXT title reign, she’s basically waiting on the call up. Roxie and Bayley didn’t even get their proper 1v1 feud, that can be a thing soon, and Kelani can move up as a top Heel or something. Good promo from Kelani with Zaria & Ruca, aka ZaRuca. Not a bad team name, it’s very Fraxiom of them.
Speaking of Fraxiom, the tag division is still having a lot of fun. As I hinted at in the report, Hank ‘n’ Tank are still going about this the wrong way. They think being like some other team is the key when they got this far being themselves. And for one, Pretty Deadly is not the team a couple hosses should be mirroring. They lose, which helps NQCC stay afloat as they haven’t done much, and then Hank ‘n’ Tank have that bit with Fraxiom. Fraxiom is again dysfunctional, and perhaps they and Hank ‘n’ Tank will face off for the titles by Stand & Deliver.
I’m very surprised that Swipe Right is getting to be part of Evolve-NXT crossover so soon, but I guess that means they show the most promise. But they’re kinda overdoing the kayfabe of Evolve. Stevie was literally put in charge last week, so she’s only had to deal with Swipe Right for one week. “Every Wednesday” is just ONE Wednesday so far. But that aside, Swipe Right VS Fraxiom will be a very good match to help get Swipe Right some recognition, and perhaps bring interest over to Evolve.
Good promo from Briggs & Inamura with The Wes Side, especially with Inamura stepping up. Inamura VS Wes will be a great match, maybe we get Briggs & Inamura VS Tyriek & Tyson (which also counts as Evolve-NXT crossover now), and who knows if either team gets in on the tag titles for Stand & Deliver. Good promo from The Culling, even if this entire gimmick doesn’t quite fit right. And very good promo from Saints to lead into the main event. That was a great match, the NXT crowd clearly loves Saints, and what a great win for Saints. Sorry, Spears, you’re a transitional champion to Saints VS Page for an even bigger feud of former AEW stars.
My Score: 8.9/10

PLAY BY PLAY
Nick Aldis is filling in for Adam Pearce.
The Raw General Manager is taking some administrative leave given last week’s particularly chaotic and violent Raw, so the SmackDown GM will gladly step in. Surely no ulterior motives like showing he’s a superior GM…
Seth Rollins is here!
Kansas City fires up for the Visionary as he leads The Wise Man and the Badass to the ring. And while Rollins wears stylish sunglasses and long-tailed coat, Paul Heyman got Bron Breakker to wear a suit! The fans sing, “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!” as the three step into the ring, and Rollins pats both Heyman and Bron on the shoulder. The fans bark for Bron, and they again sing for Rollins as Rollins has the mic already. Rollins revels in this moment as usual, then he tells Kansas City, “Welcome to Monday Night Rollins~!” He is the Visionary, he is the Revolutionary, he is Seth FREAKIN’ Rollins!
“And in case you didn’t know, you’ve been living under a rock, you’re looking at the winner of the main event of WrestleMania! And I know it’s a little difficult for some of you out there that still wanna chant for CM Punk…” Some fans do indeed still chant for CM Punk. Rollins nods and says, “I knew there were still a few out there. And I know it might be painful for you who still wanna put your fingers in the air for Roman Reigns…” And fans do indeed raise the ones and chant “O T C! O T C!” Rollins says what you are looking at in this ring right now is the future of this industry! The fans do cheer that.
Rollins says the future runs through one man. That man is NOT CM Punk. That man is NOT Roman Reigns. Hell, it’s not even John Cena, Jey Uso or Cody Rhodes! The future of this industry, with Paul Heyman to his left, and Bron Breakker to his right, the future of this industry runs through SETH FREAKIN’ ROLLINS! But wait! Sami Zayn makes his way out here! Sami goes to the ring and grabs himself a mic, but Rollins gives Sami the introductions. The fans do cheer, and Rollins has Bron stand down. Rollins says it is good to see Sami back on Monday Night Raw! Rollins assumes Sami caught WrestleMania.
Sami says yes, he did. He saw the main event of night one. How long have they been friends? A long time, right? Well, then Sami feels the need to come out here as a friend, as someone who has known Rollins a long time, to say that this… “This is a load of crap, man.” What/ What does he mean? Uh, how much time did Rollins talk about Punk, Roman, and how one the one thing those two had in common is standing by Rollins now. How is Rollins any different? Whoa, wait, is Sami comparing Rollins to Punk and Roman? How can this NOT be different? Sami says for the longest time, he started to believe Rollins just had this hatred for Punk and Roman.
But now, maybe Rollins was just jealous of them. Maybe Rollins just wanted to be in the position that they were in. Rollins says Sami, look, Rollins is not Punk, he is not Roman, this is the vision for the future! They go back many, many years, talking about what the vision of the future would look like. Oh, yes, isn’t that a coincidence? The “vision” for the future of the WWE and of the entire industry for years to come, it all revolves around Rollins being front and center. That’s not a coincidence! Rollins is the best man for the job! That’s Sami’s point, Rollins. It isn’t coincidence, it is hypocrisy.
Sami says all this time talking about The Bloodline this, the Bloodline that, and- Rollins stops Sami there. This is NOT The Bloodline, stop making that comparison! Well how is it different? The Wise Man over on that side, and a lapdog over on the other. And if Bron keeps looking at Sami like that, Sami will kick Bron’s face in! The fans fire up hearing that! Rollins shouts for everyone to calm down. Sami, what is this? You came out here to be honest with Rollins, so Rollins will be honest with you. This IS the vision for the future. And Sami is either with them, or they are against them. And that’s not a threat.
Rollins doesn’t want Sami to be an enemy. This whole thing is bigger than Rollins. It doesn’t matter if Rollins hates you like he does Roman and Punk, or if he loves you like a brother. You stand in his way, you become a target, and Rollins doesn’t want that for Sami. So they can find a solution to this. It doesn’t have to come to blows. Wise Man, please, pull some strings. Sami can be moved off Raw. The fans boo and Rollins says no, that’s not a threat! It’s just that Sami clearly won’t buy in, so maybe they can cash him out. That is not a threat. But it is an offer. A favor, even. So look, Sami, just think about it. But they will need an answer by the end of the night.
Rollins turns to go, Heyman has Bron stand down, and the clock is ticking. Will the Underdog from the Underground side with Rollins’ vision? Or will he be the first to stand against it?
Rhea Ripley VS Roxanne Perez!
Mami came to the rescue last week when The Prodigy and Giulia went after Iyo Sky and Stephanie Vaquer. Rhea still wants to be on top, will her brutality go a long way towards that? Or will the former NXT Women’s Champion pop off against the former Women’s World Champion?
Raw returns and Roxie makes her entrance. The bell rings and the fans rally up. Rhea and Roxie circle, the fans behind “MAMI! MAMI!” The two tie up, Roxie dodges and then bails out. The fans boo but Roxie tells the ref to back Rhea off. Rhea does back up, and Roxie takes her time stepping inside. Roxie and Rhea feel things out, but then Roxie bails out again! The fans boo but Roxie is clearly trolling. Roxie then throws her jacket at Rhea! Roxie storms in and CHOP BLOCKS! Rhea writhes, the fans boo but Roxie talks trash. Roxie CLUBS and kicks and stomps, but then Rhea grabs Roxie by the hair!
Roxie SLAPS Rhea, then laughs. Rhea is furious so now Roxie apologizes. But then Roxie dropkicks the legs out and Rhea hits buckles! Roxie runs in, UPPERCUTS, then comes back, but into a BOOT! Rhea reels Roxie in, Canadian Racks, but Roxie hooks the ropes! Roxie slips free, ducks ‘n’ dodges to wheelbarrow, but no bulldog! Roxie shifts to roll Rhea, and she stomps away on the bad leg! Rhea BOOTS Roxie away with the good leg! But then Roxie SWEEPS the legs! The fans rally but Roxie DROPKICKS Rhea out! Roxie builds speed to DIVE! But Rhea catches her! The fans fire up as Rhea THROWS Roxie into barriers!
Roxie is down, Rhea shakes out the bad leg, then she drags Roxie up. SNAKE EYES off the barriers! The ring count climbs, Rhea stalks Roxie, and Rhea puts Roxie in the ring. Roxie backs up but Rhea puts her on the apron! Rhea DECKS Roxie, then drags her back up, only for Roxie to trip Rhea! Roxie SLAMS Rhea’s bad leg into the post! Rhea resists as Roxie tries again, but Roxie CLUBS away, then she SLAMS the leg back into post! The fans boo but Roxie runs, tilt-o-whirl RUSSIAN- NO, Rhea blocks with power! Roxie slips free of the scoop but Rhea LARIATS her down! The fans fire up while Rhea gets her leg moving.
Rhea hauls Roxie up, whips her to a corner, then runs in. Roxie BOOTS Rhea away, then goes up and leaps! But Rhea catches her again! Rhea powers through to suplex high and hard! Roxie staggers up, but Rhea DROPKICKS Roxie down! Roxie bails out, Rhea shakes the bad leg out, and Raw goes to break.
Raw returns and Roxie double jumps and MOONSAULTS! Cover, TWO! Rhea survives and Roxie grows frustrated. The fans rally but Roxie goes for the bad legs. Spinning toehold, then a DEATHLOCK! Rhea endures as Roxie puts on the pressure! Rhea CLUBS Roxie, Roxie pushes on the bad leg, repeat! Roxie fires a forearm, Rhea fires a haymaker, but Roxie fires a flurry! Roxie lets Rhea go to then have a standing toehold! Roxie pushes on the knee and ankle, but Rhea kicks with the free leg! Roxie still holds on so Rhea kicks at her again and again! Rhea finally BOOTS free, then ENZIGIRIS! Roxie comes back, but Rhea wrenches to a short arm LARIAT!
Rhea short arm LARIATS, then ducks a shot to wrench and HOOK KICK! Rhea reels Roxie in and lifts her up, Canadian Rack for the RAZOR’S EDGE! Roxie flounders, Rhea SLIDING KICKS! Cover, TWO!! The bad leg holds Rhea back and Roxie survives for it! Rhea hobbles and goes back for Roxie. Rhea drags Roxie up, then fires off in the corner! The ref counts but the fans fire up! Wait, is that Giulia!? The Beautiful Madness is back again, taunting Rhea. Rhea eggs Giulia on, but Roxie snatches Rhea to a cradle! TWO!! Roxie runs and tilt-o-whirls to SPIKE-RANA! Roxie gets moving and she HANDSPRING KNEE DROPS! Cover, TWO!!
Rhea survives and Roxie is freaking out! Giulia is just as frustrated over that count, but Roxie drags Rhea up. Roxie SLAPS Rhea, Rhea SLAPS Roxie! Roxie SOBATS, hops on, POP- NO, Rhea flips that over and KNEES Roxie down! Rhea then glares at Giulia. Giulia eggs Rhea on, Rhea grabs Giulia’s hair! Roxie rolls Rhea, but Rhea rolls through and HEADBUTTS! Rhea pump handles, but Giulia CHOP BLOCKS Rhea!
Winner: Rhea Ripley, by disqualificationÂ
The fans boo but Giulia HAMMERS away on Rhea! Roxie joins in, but here comes Iyo Sky! The fans fire up as the Evil Genius rushes in, dodges Roxie and SHOTEIS Giulia! SHOTEI for Roxie! Iyo blocks Giulia’s kick to send it into Roxie! Then victory roll, STOMP 182! The fans fire up with Iyo, and then she runs at Roxie! Roxie puts Iyo on the apron, but Iyo GAMANGIRIS! Giulia is up, and she trips Iyo up on the springboard! Now the champ is getting mugged! Rhea returns, and that sends Roxie & Giulia running! Roxie & Giulia never used to be friends, but they have common targets in Iyo & Rhea. Will they come to regret it?
Judgment Day talks in the clubhouse.
They’re all excited, and then Finn joins in! Finn formally welcomes JD McDonagh back from injury, and mentions they need to talk later. They go off to the side and Finn thought JD was going to tell him when he was back. JD says he told Dom first, he meant to tell Finn, and he’s sorry. Finn is fine with that, he just wishes JD had told him. JD knows, but with the Intercontinental Championship match, JD was cleared quicker than he thought and- Liv checks in. Is everything okay? Sure, of course! Just catching up. Okay, but why aren’t they getting ready for their match? Wait, what match?
JD says he was also going to tell Finn but it got away from him. Liv said it’d be great if JD & Finn made another run at the World Tag Team Championships, and JD agreed, so he went to Nick Aldis and they’ve got a match with the War Raiders tonight. JD thought Liv was going to tell Finn. Liv says it’s just been so busy, it slipped her mind. But she just figured, since Finn isn’t a champion right now, that he’d be interested. Well of course he’d be interested. But in the future, please keep Finn in the loop. Yes, absolutely. Finn says he’ll go get ready, JD and Liv grumble at each other, but Carlito says it’ll be great once everyone is champion. Oh wait, maybe Carlito should be, too…
Liv & JD go back to the game with Dom and Raquel, and Carlito seems to have an idea. But what title could Caribbean Cool possibly capture?
Logan Paul is here!
Raw returns as The Maverick is already in the ring. Kansas City boos, but Logan says, “Hey, yo! That’s crazy, cuz I dunno if y’all remember, but I beat the Phenomenal AJ Styles last weekend at WrestleMania. And I hear you. You people still aren’t satisfied. Hey, hey, hey, I get it. You’re from Kansas City, you’re a victim of circumstance. You don’t know greatness when it’s standing right in front of you. You people are so, so stupid! You don’t know what a true legend looks like. And hey, hey, I’m gonna say something, and it might offend some of you, you’re not gonna like it. But a true legend certainly does not look like your current World Heavyweight Champion, Jey Uso.”
The fans boo but Logan says he has had seven days to think. He realized he’s done just about everything there is in this industry, except win the world title. “So Jey Uso! Consider your days numbered, because you have something that I want!” But then YEET! Here comes Main Event Jey! The fans fire up and sing along with that Day One Ish, and the bounce is on! Jey even bestows his YEET sunglasses to a young fan who beat cancer and is at his first WWE show. The fans fire up for that, and they YEET again! Jey steps in the ring, grabs a mic, and the fans “YEET! YEET! YEET!” Logan looks right at the belt, and Jey tells him hold up.
Let’s silence this noise! Cuz Logan thinks that after 15 YEARS of Jey making a name for himself, finally becoming World Heavyweight Champion, that Jey’s just gonna hand this over to some punk YouTuber like Logan Paul! STOP! “YEET!” Jey tells Pat, “Can you believe this?” Jey says let’s get real for a minute. Jey watched Gunther beat his twin brother to a bloody pulp. That did something to Jey. It lit a fire inside of him that ain’t ever going out. So look, Logan, this title is not given, it is earned. And it’s Jey’s! So if you want it, come take it! Four letters, one word. Uh, uh, YEET!! The fans fire up, but Logan rolls his eyes.
“YEET? You sound so stupid, Uce. I’ve done more in four years than you have in 15! All of you know that’s true!” So Logan has something for Jey! This is how it’s gonna go: That title? Logan will take it from Jey. And Jey will do what he does best, what he always does, and that is crash out, screw up, and lose in less time than he held the Intercontinental Championship. So enjoy it while you- SUPERKICK!! The fans fire up as Jey just knocks this punk ass YouTuber on his punk ass! Will this be the story of Logan trying to take the main event from Main Event Jey?
Finn Balor & JD McDonagh w/ Carlito VS The War Raiders!
The Prince was as surprised as the fans to see The Irish Ace return, but while JD helped Dirty Dom become Intercontinental Champion, now the lads can be WWE World Tag Team Champions again. Well, that’s if they can get past Erik & Ivar to go after the New Day. Will this be a bright new chapter for Judgment Day? Or will they simply run into Ragnarök?
Speaking of The New Day, they’re ringside to be part of commentary, and they’re just running down everyone, even claiming that by supporting the War Raiders, you’re supporting literal war. The teams sort out and Ivar starts against JD. The bell rings and they tie up. JD waistlocks, headlocks, but Ivar powers out. JD RAMS Ivar but he’s the one that falls back! Finn swipes at Ivar, Ivar storms up on Finn, but JD headlocks Ivar. Ivar powers up and out again, but JD slips through the backdrop! JD waistlocks, Ivar bucks the O’Conner, then Ivar DECKS Finn! JD CLUBS Ivar, kicks away, and Finn tags in. The Judgment Day mugs Ivar, then soaks up the cheers and jeers.
Finn tags JD back in, JD wrenches Ivar’s beard! Ivar whips JD away, then he BACKDROPS JD! Tag to Erik and he DECKS JD! Finn runs up, but Erik wrenches and lifts Finn for an EXPLODER! JD runs, Erik dodges and SHOTGUN KNEES! The fans fire up and Erik tags Ivar in. Erik sends Ivar in and he LARIATS Finn! Then he feeds Finn to Erik’s ELBOW! Ivar KNEES JD, whips and Erik KNEES JD down! Erik drags JD up, TOSSES him out to join Finn, and the fans cheer on the Raiders. The New Day taunts the raiders with the titles, and Judgment Day returns! But the Raiders scoop and SLAM both JD & Finn!
Finn tumbles away, Ivar scoops JD to SLAM him again! Erik scoops Ivar to SLAM him onto JD! Erik steps outside so Ivar can tag him back in. Ivar then lines up a shot, and the fans fire up as he runs in. But Carlito drags Finn who drags JD to get him out of the way! Ivar crashes into the LED apron! Erik checks on Ivar, Woods mockingly says, “It’s impressive cuz he’s fat, wow~.” The New Day verbally runs down the Raiders while Raw goes to break.
Raw returns and JD RAMS Erik into the Judgment Day corner. The ref counts as JD throws hands, but fans count along. Erik stops JD at 5, BLASTS Finn, but JD kicks Erik. Erik DECKS JD! Both men are down, the fans fire up, and New Day makes bald jokes on Erik. JD and Erik crawl, hot tags to Ivar and Finn! The fans fire up as Ivar rallies on Finn! Scoop and SIDEWALK SLAM! Ivar runs to SPLASH! The fans fire up with Ivar and he runs, but Finn dodges. Ivar SEATED SENTONS! Then he cartwheels past JD to HEEL KICK! The fans fire up and Ivar gets them to chant, “WAR! WAR! WAR!” Ivar runs to BRONCO BUSTER!
Finn sputters into the drop zone, Ivar goes up, and the fans fire up again. DOOMSAULTÂ FLOPS as Finn moves! Carlito is relieved while Finn and Ivar are both down. Finn crawls, Ivar stirs, and New Day just puts themselves over. Hot tag to JD, and he uses Ivar as a step to BLAST Erik! Then JD DUMPS Ivar out, and he ASAI MOONSAULTS! Direct hit and no desk to worry about on that side! JD puts Ivar in the ring, climbs up again, and he MOONSAULTS! Cover, Erik breaks it! Finn returns to fire hands on Erik! Finn TOSSES Erik out, then he and JD double whip Ivar. Erik sneaks a tag, Ivar breaks the double lariat!
Ivar handsprings and DOUBLE BACK ELBOWS! Kofi say she can do that, too. Erik goes out to fetch JD, Ivar has Finn, and the fans fire up as the Raiders DOUBLE LAWN DART Finn & JDÂ into each other! New Day says get those two in the ring then! Dummies! Erik puts JD in, then glares at Kofi & Woods. Ivar throws Finn at the New Day! The fans fire up, and then Ivar SPLASHES them all!! The fans fire up, Carlito gets up, Erik DECKS him! JD rolls Erik up, TWO! Erik has JD but JD JAWBREAKERS! JD goes up, Carlito distracts more, but PENTA is here! He SHOVES JD to screw JD! Payback for WrestleMania!
Erik tags Ivar, the fans fire up as JD is popped up for the WAR MACHINE!! Cover, War Raiders win!
Winners: The War Raiders, by pinfall
The man with Cero Miedo made sure JD & Finn get nothing! Will Dirty Dom and the Intercontinental Championship be next? Will New Day have to face the raid once more?
Sami Zayn contemplates backstage.
Otis asks him what he’s thinking, and Sami says he isn’t sure. But then in steps Paul Heyman. The Wise Man sits with Sami and asks Otis give them the room. Otis obliges, and Heyman says he was thinking about what Sami said about The Bloodline. Heyman & Sami are OG Bloodline, y’know? Sami says that is true. But Heyman blew up whatever was left. Well, Heyman respected when Sami broke away. Maybe one day, Sami will respect what Heyman did. But Heyman isn’t here to talk about that. “Seth Rollins views himself as the vanguard of the future of this entire industry. And whether he is or he isn’t, that’s how he views himself.
“And Bron Breakker? Well, that’s his dog at the gate. And whether he is or he isn’t, that’s how Bron Breakker views himself. And Bron Breakker right now is demanding a match with you. Seth and I, we can’t say no to that because Bron Breakker is the key to our plans. But Seth Rollins, he holds you in such reverence, he is offering you a pass. If you accept being traded to SmackDown starting this Friday, everybody wins!” Sami is about to get up but Heyman has him hold on. Heyman has spoken with Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis. Seth Rollins is going to do Sami a favor. Oh, is he? Yes.
If Sami accepts the offer, the moment Sami arrives on SmackDown, he is set to face the winner of John Cena VS Randy Orton after Backlash! Just like that! Instant #1 contender. That’s how much Rollins thinks of Sami. Think of your future, Sami. And of your family’s future. “Sami, you can live in the future… Or you can die with the past. Think about it.” Heyman pats Sami on the back, leaves, and Bron is there around the corner. Will the dog still get to take a bite out of the underdog? Or will Sami make his dreams come true?
Becky Lynch is here!
Kansas City isn’t quite as excited to see The Man as usual given what she did to The Morrigan the moment they lost the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. Becky grabs a mic and says, “The Man has come around to Kansas City! And The Man is back in business, so let’s get down to business, shall we? Bayley was tragically taken out of her WrestleMania match, but there won’t be any murder mystery, any weeks long whodunnit. I have examined the evidence, I have reviewed the footage, and we have found the culprit. It was me! I did it!” The fans boo, but Becky says no no no no no no! Don’t make her the bad guy here!
They can’t act like Becky is the villain! You can’t fake outrage! Bayley has attacked Becky nonstop since 2019! And not one time did Bayley apologize! But are we supposed to just forget about it? Just like how Bayley’s forgotten just what this business is! While Bayley’s out here going, “Everyone, please like me!” and wearing everybody else’s merch, and dancing to everyone else’s music, and asking, “Why aren’t I a bigger star?” Well, she just saw what a bigger star looks like when Becky walked down the ramp at WrestleMania! The fans boo, but Becky says that brings her to Lyra Valkyria. As the saying goes, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
But then the reverse works, too. The friend of an enemy is an enemy! Lyra wouldn’t be in this business if not for Becky! Becky had high hopes for Lyra. But while Becky was out, Lyra cozied up to the woman Becky’s been fighting for the last six YEARS!? Even then, Becky still tried to save Lyra and get her to “ditch that b*tch!” Lyra never would’ve won those tag titles with Bayley! But it was too late, she was already compromised as a loser. Becky showed Bayley what she thought of her before- Wait! Lyra is here! Lyra has a mic already and she says, “You had high hopes for me? Do you know how many women in that locker room warned me about you?”
Becky says, “I bet they did.” Lyra says Bayley was one of the first! Well, of course she was. Bayley said Becky would step on anyone just to get ahead. Lyra didn’t buy any of it, because she was so caught up in some stupid fairytale dream of two Irish women as tag team champions at WrestleMania! Because of the hopes she had for Becky! And Lyra isn’t sure how it took her all those Manhandle Slams, but Lyra finally sees it now. She knows exactly what Becky is: The Illusion of Becky Lynch is dead. And Lyra will make her pay for what she did! Becky bails as Lyra storms in, and Lyra says c’mon, she’s really gonna run away?
Kansas City wants to see a fight, right? The fans cheer that yes they do! Lyra asks what’s the matter. Is Becky thinking back to the last time they went 1v1? When Lyra beat Becky and took the NXT Women’s Championship? Becky says no, no, no, from now on, The Man only fights when it matters. And it doesn’t matter here in Kansas City! Lyra says she should’ve seen this coming, too. Sorry, Kansas City, but The Man is too good for you. But fine, they’ll do it at Backlash. And The Man will only want it if the Women’s Intercontinental Championship is on the line. Then Becky’s got it! Well, okay. Becky will make that title matter like she did Lyra matter!
So welcome to the- OH SHUT THE HELL UP, BECKY! Becky didn’t make Lura matter, Lyra made herself matter. Lyra doesn’t want to be the next Becky Lynch. She is Lyra Valkyria, and she will be both a better person than Becky, and she already knows she’s a better wrestler! Becky tells Lyra, “You listen to me, you little punk!” Becky rants about how Lyra wouldn’t even be in WWE if not for Becky paving the way! But then Lyra WERCKS Becks with a dropkick! The fans fire up as Lyra then goes after Becky on the outside, shoves her into the ring, and then hurries to throw down hands! The fans fire up more but Becky bails out again!
Becky runs away into the crowd and then into the night, but Lyra eggs her on. Will Becky face all the backlash for what she’s done since her return? Wait, speaking of return, Becky CLOBBERS Lyra on the ramp! The Man uses a cheap shot, but will Lyra make sure she sees the next one?
Nick Aldis talks with Penta backstage.
The substitute GM wants Penta to tranquilo. He knows what Judgment Day did, he knows Penta wants payback, so he’ll let Penta off without a fine. But we can’t have this happening, okay? Penta thanks Aldis. Aldis does have good news. He has put it on the books for next week: Penta VS JD McDonagh! Good! Penta will be ready! Penta thanks Aldis again, and then Penta turns around, to see Chad Gable & Ivy Nile. Chad, in his new “El Grande Americano es Numero Uno” shirt, tells Penta that he was just walking Ivy to gorilla and couldn’t resist to talk to another luchador on his descent.
Penta thought he was pretty slick pulling out a cheap victory on Gable for the Netflix debut, huh? But look at him now. Dropping the big one at WrestleMania. Oh, nothing to say? Isn’t it Cero Miedo? More like cero comebacks, clown! And also, Penta losing wasn’t the favorite part of WrestleMania for Gable. It was Penta’s loser brother, Fenix, dropping the ball in his WrestleMania debut to El Grande Americano! Penta BOOTS Gable down! Penta tells him not to talk bad on his brother! Don’t mess with the Lucha Brothers! And yes, he IS Penta, and he does have Cero Miedo, pendejo! Penta storms off, will Gable still be able to coach Ivy for her match?
Rusev speaks.
“Once upon a time I had it all. The gold, the fame, the tank at WrestleMania, then I lost myself. I left the WWE, and on my way home to Bulgaria, I fell into the abyss. In that abyss is where I found myself, healed myself, redeemed myself, and fixed myself. In that Hell, I realized I will no longer fight for a woman that isn’t mine, nor a flag that never was. An epiphany. I was finally free to crush people not because I was told to, but because I wanted to. So now, I will use my hands and jacked body for good. I will hunt the frauds, the arrogant, those who waste their talents like I did. And through pain, I will perfect them all for good.
“So my brothers, your lack of suffering ends now. I am the tempest rolling in. I will hunt you, forgive and fix you, like I fixed myself. But choose your next steps wisely, because for a righteous man, savagery will be no hardship. Ending you will be no loss.” Rusev is ready to fix the Raw roster, who will he choose to work on first?
Stephanie Vaquer VS Ivy Nile w/ Chad Gable!
La Primera made quite the impression on the Raw After Mania, then she thwarted Roxanne Perez on the NXT After Stand & Deliver. She has returned once again, will she continue to show why she is THE NXT Women’s Champion? Or will the Diamond Pitbull show her American Made strength?
The bell rings and the two circle. The fans rally as the two feel things out. Ivy refuses the knuckle lock but Vaquer avoids the leg pick. Ivy comes back to lift and SPINEBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Ivy facelocks, gator rolls, and she keeps hold of Vaquer to then float around, flip her over and cover, TWO! Vaquer waistlocks now, pops Ivy down to a O’Conner BRIDGE, TWO! Ivy gets up, runs up, and she kicks low. Ivy headlocks, Vaquer endures, and Vaquer powers up and out. Ivy runs Vaquer over, kisses the biceps, and things speed up. Vaquer bypasses Ivy then runs her over! The fans cheer, Vaquer storms up on Ivy, and whips her to ropes.
Ivy tilt-o-whirls to RANA! Vaquer comes back, Ivy ducks and whips, and Vaquer tilt-o-whirls to roll-up deep! TWO, and Ivy stands back up. The fans cheer the standoff, and then the two step up. Ivy swings, but into a wrench and snap suplex! Vaquer sits Ivy up and smiles. The fans like where this is going! Headscissors for the- NO, Ivy pops free to tie up the legs! QUEEN ANGELITO STRETCH, into a SURFBOARD! Vaquer endures, pushes back to roll, andshe has the headscissors! DEVIL’S KISS! TEN kisses, yeeeeeeeah~! Gable is frustrated, the fans are fired up, and Raw goes to break.
Raw returns, and we get more DEVIL’S KISSES! Another TEN, yeeeeeeeah~! The fans fire up more while Gable is protesting. Ivy goes to a corner, Vaquer runs in, METEORA! Vaquer drags Ivy out, pushes her down to a cover, but Gable gives Ivy the ropebreak! The fans boo and Vaquer knows what happened. Gable plays innocent, but she storms out after him! Gable asks what’s her problem. But Ivy runs up to GERMAN SUPLEX Vaquer to the floor! Ivy puts Vaquer in the ring, hurries to go Around the World, CALF KICK! And then GERMAN SUPLEX! Bridging cover, TWO! The fans fire up as Vaquer survives but Ivy is right on her.
Ivy pushes Vaquer to the drop zone, climbs up the corner, but Vaquer rises to UPPERCUT! The fans cheer and Vaquer goes up! Vaquer brings Ivy to the top, but Ivy fights with body shots! Vaquer fires a flurry of HEADBUTTS! Vaquer shakes that off, then hoists Ivy up, SUPERPLEX! Cover, TWO! Ivy survives and Gable can breathe again. The fans rally up, “This is Awesome!” as Ivy and Vaquer rise. Vaquer HEADBUTTS, but Ivy fires a forearm! Vaquer CHOPS, so Ivy CHOPS! The fans rally as the shots keep going, and they turn to forearms! Ivy gets the edge, but Vaquer ducks a kick to mule kick!

Winner: Stephanie Vaquer, by pinfall
The NXT Women’s Champion has been busy, but it isn’t slowing her down! Will the Dark Angel continue to fly high no matter where she goes?
Aldis talks with AJ Styles.
Aldis knows The Phenomenal One is upset with how things went for him at WrestleMania. Logan Paul, Karrion Kross, trickery, all that. But Aldis knows Styles is still phenomenal. They’ve got a long list of opponents to help Styles get back on the horse. Styles says he’s got some ideas himself. But in step Judgment Day first… Liv has Dom & Raquel with her as she “apologizes” for interrupting, but she’ll need time off for Liv’s big Hollywood movie role! Yes, Aldis is aware. Congrats on that, that’s very exciting. And as far as he knows, the paperwork is all good. Liv thanks Aldis, but now Dom asks that he gets time off, too.
Um, why? Because Dom is a champion and he gets what he wants. Oh, is that so? No, Dom should’ve listened to his dad more. When you’re champion, you have to do more work. So request denied. And if they don’t mind, Aldis was in the middle of a conversation. Dom asks what Styles has to talk about, a retirement home? HAHAH! Didn’t Styles break a hip like Dom’s deadbeat dad? No, actually. Styles is thinking about breaking something else, if you catch his drift. Liv has this stop here. Judgment Day leaves, and Styles says if we’re talking opportunities, he just got an idea. Aldis says he knows exactly what Styles means. Is Dom’s name about to move way up the list?
Sami Zayn paces.
But Karrion Kross finds him. Kross says Sami’s got a really big decision to make tonight! And hopefully, Sami makes the right choice. Kross smiles and leaves, are his mind games only going to make things harder for Sami?
Pat McAfee addresses Gunther’s actions last week.
After reviewing footage of Der Ring General taking umbrage with Michael Cole’s mere opinion, and then the brutal physical assault on Pat McAfee for him simply sticking up for Cole, it is announced that Gunther has been fined an undisclosed yet large amount of money, and has been suspended indefinitely. Pat then stands up on the desk with a mic in hand, and the fans cheer as he says, “It is my honor to get a chance to chat in the city of the Home~ of the~ Chiefs! This place is glorious, and it’s the right place for me to deliver this message. There are a lot of people that have forgotten who the hell I am.
“I’ve had such a successful career on a microphone, I think even I have forgotten who the hell I am! This past week has made me look in the mirror and realize some things. That I’m still that dog that was born in the east hills of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to a truck driver that was just trying to go paycheck to paycheck to paycheck. I am a man that was not handed a lot in this life. I am a man that is lucky to be blessed with great friends. I am a man that went from being a irrelevant bum to a human that is known in basically every city in this country. I don’t have more talent than anybody, I’m definitely not better looking than most folks.
“But I happen to have a few things that I hope people will remember me by whenever my time has come to pass. When I die and I’m six feet in the dirt, I hope they say, ‘That guy was an incredibly hard worker. He worked his ass off. Not only for himself but for his friends, for his family, and for his community.'” The fans cheer that! Pat continues to say that he hopes they say he was empathetic. Whenever he received a lot, he gave back a lot. He gave millions, “AND MILLIONS~!” of dollars to his community and to children’s hospitals across this country. To military foundations, to homeless shelters, to LGBTQ reach out.
To public schools, to underprivileged communities and societies! Pat hopes that the people know he gave back and made the world better than when he came into it. And last but not least, when Pat is dead and gone, he hopes they will say that he was a loyal mother effer! The fans definitely cheer that! Pat says, “You must ride for those that ride for you. If one go, all go. You’re either with me or against me. And there’s one man that has been with me since the day I met him, and he just so happens to be the greatest of all time, MICHAEL COLE!” The fans cheer for Maggle, and Pat says to Cole, he will be loyal until he’s in the soil.
And if someone has something with Cole, then they have something with Pat. So last week, when that Austrian a-hole put his hands on Cole, Pat had no other option than to protect his guy! IT was deep in Pat’s soul, his blood. Afterward, Pat got attacked. Pat sees himself choked out all over the internet and TV. Friends and family told him not to do this with Gunther. Gunther is in his prime, a former World Heavyweight Champion. Pat said, “F THAT!! If I die, I die. If you’ve got a problem with Cole, you’ve got a problem with me, Gunther! SmackDown’s version of Adam Pearce, please come out here!”
Nick Aldis does make his way on stage, and Aldis wants Mr. McAfee to calm down. Pearce’s style tends to be, “let chaos reign,” but Aldis is in charge tonight and he does things a little different. And we all know that this is not the time nor the place for this. But Pat called Aldis out, so here he is. Please, keep it professional. Pat says he knows Aldis is just some middle manager, just like Pearce. Pearce, we miss you. But Pat knows Aldis has the power on this particular evening to make some things happen. Pat doesn’t like that Pearce suspended Gunther, that Gunther isn’t here. Aldis, lift the suspension so Pat can fight Gunther ASAP!
The fans like the sound of that, and Aldis says he figured it’d be something like that. That is why Aldis discussed this ahead of time with Pearce. As far as the suspension goes for Pat to go after Gunther, the answer is… No. The fans boo, but Aldis says both Gunther and Pat are far too valuable of assets to the WWE to take such a risk. But speaking of value, Aldis does have an alternative. They can lift he suspension on Gunther, and Pat can get his hands on Gunther, in a sanctioned contest inside the ring. Pat, what Aldis is proposing is Pat McAfee VS Gunther 1v1 at Backlash! The fans like the sound of that, too!
Pat says him and Gunther, 1v1, St. Louis, Backlash… DEAL! The fans cheer Pat on, but Cole is a bit worried. Win, lose, or draw, will Pat put Gunther in his place and show you can’t just bully anyone you want?
Sami is still thinking…
And then he crosses paths with Jey Uso. Jey tells his brother from another mother, Jey just wants to check in. Sami appreciates that. It is a big decision. Jey says whatever Sami decides, it’ll be the best for Sami. Jey loves you, dawg. Sami says he loves Jey, too. They hug it out, and Sami heads out. Will Jey having his back help Sami with that decision? But then LOGAN PAUL SUCKER PUNCHES Jey! Logan says that’s karma, Uce! Logan leaves Jey down and out, but will Logan face some karma of his own?
Seth Rollins is back in the ring.
The fans again sing for the Visionary, and he says, “Well, we are here. It is nearly the end of the night, so… Sami Zayn, I’d love for you to come out here and let’s talk this out, my friend.” Rollins waits, and Sami makes his entrance once again. The moment of truth is here as Sami again joins Rollins in the ring. Rollins says before Sami makes his decision, he just wants Sami to hear him out. Sami is putting Rollins in a very, very difficult position. He really is. They go back a long way, and Rollins does not want to see anything bad happen to Sami. Rollins gets it, Sami doesn’t like Bron or Heyman, but this is Rollins!
Twenty YEARS of friendship, Rollins and Sami. Last week, Sami came back to Raw, celebrated with Jey & Jimmy Uso because they’re friends. When Sami came out here, Rollins thought Sami was giving him the same respect. Rollins knows Sami doesn’t agree with it, but Rollins and Bron and Heyman, that is the way forward. Rollins believes with his whole heart that this IS the vision for the best future of the WWE. Rollins wishes he had someone else to believe in, but there is no one better to lead us into the future than Rollins. And the fact Sami doesn’t believe in Rollins hurts. Because this business tears relationships apart, friendships apart.
They’ve both been on either side of that, and Sami knows that after everything is said and done, how many true friends can Sami count he’s made in this business? It’s all on one hand, right? Less than five. But for Rollins, Sami was one of those true friends. When Rollins’ baby girl was born, Sami was one of the first people he called, as he’d just become a new father himself. Rollins was scared out of his mind, had nowhere to turn, so he turned to Sami. Sami gave him some of the best advice he’d ever gotten in his entire life, and he will forever be grateful. So please, allow Rollins to return the favor and give Sami some advice that could save his life.
Rollins wants Sami to take the pass. Take the way out. Whatever Heyman’s got lined up, go take it. Because if Sami stays on Raw and doesn’t believe in Rollins… Bad things are gonna happen. And Rollins loves Sami, he doesn’t want that to happen, so just take the pass. Take the way out. Rollins is begging Sami to take the out! The fans are torn, Sami is conflicted, and Sami says if he hurts Rollins’ feeling as a friend, he is sorry. Everything Rollins is saying is true, their friendship transcends the business, their children are friends, these two are good friends. Outside of this ring, that is true.
But when it comes to everything that Rollins says inside this ring… Sami says Rollins is playing games. Rollins is good, always has been. Sami’s never been good at that stuff. That’s why Rollins is in this position. And Rollins knows because of how close they are, he knows what cards to play. Sami confided in Rollins over the years, and how the one thing that’s eluded him in his entire career, how much it nags at him, that one thing Sami has yet to get is a world championship. And now, Rollins is dangling that in front of Sami. That is what Rollins is doing. Friend or not, for as long as Rollins has known Sami, has he ever, ever known Sami to run away?
Talk about hurt feelings, Sami will not stand here as his “friend” threatens him. Because that is what Rollins is doing. Rollins is saying if Sami doesn’t submit to Rollins’ future, he is a target. Guess what? Sami’s been a target 1000 times before! Sami can live with bein ga target, but he can’t live with being blackmailed, blackballed, blacklisted, extorted, manipulated! He will NOT be threatened!! The fans fire up as Sami says he WILL win a WWE world championship!! And when Sami does, it will not because of a favor from anyone., It will be from Sami doing it his way, and doing it the right way!
The fans cheer Sami on as Sami says, “As a friend, I respect you, I love you, but this is me telling you to go to Hell.” Rollins sighs, and here comes Bron! Heyman did say the dog would be coming for the underdog, will Sami not back down from this fight, either?
Sami Zayn VS Bron Breakker w/ Paul Heyman & Seth Rollins!
The bell rings and Sami runs up, only for Bron to RAM him into a corner! Bron RAMS Sami again and again and again, then stops as the ref counts. Bron THROWS Sami overhead! Rollins watches on as Bron storms up on Sami to ROCK him! Bron scrapes Sami’s face against the ropes! Bron then whips Sami, but Sami KICKS the backdrop away! Sami goes to a corner, Bron runs up, but Sami ELBOWS him! Sami goes up, and he AX HANDLES Bron down! The fans fire up, Sami runs up on Bron and kicks him! Sami bumps Bron off buckles, then pushes him down. Sami goes back up, and he AX- NO, Bron hits another OVERHEAD SUPLEX!
The fans are torn, but plenty bark it up for Bron. Bron stalks Sami, drags him up and throws haymakers. Bron talks trash, CHOKES Sami on the ropes, then steps off. The ref reprimands and Sami sputters but Bron comes back for more. Bron whips Sami to then ELBOW him down! Bron smirks while fans are torn between boos and barks. Bron drags Sami up, brings him around, but Sami fires forearms and CHOPS! Sami fires more shots, more CHOPS, but Bron knees low! Bron headlocks, Sami powers up and out, drops down then jumps, but into a SPINEBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Sami is tougher than that, but Bron stays focused.
Bron drags Sami up and puts him on the ropes. Bron fires knee after knee, then whips Sami to ropes. Sami springboards to go up and over, then LARIAT! The fans fire up as now Bron scrambles. Bron runs back in but Sami TOSSES him out! Sami goes to the apron but Bron grabs a leg! Bron YANKS Sami down, then SMACKS him off the desk! Rollins doesn’t even look as Sami sputters. Bron goes up, aims, and FLYING LARIATS Sami onto the desk! Sami flops to the floor in a heap, but Rollins is still stoic as Raw goes to break.
Raw returns once more as Bron has Sami up top. Bron brings Sami up, but Sami fights the suplex with body shots! The fans fire up as Sami CLUBS away on Bron’s back! Sami then adjusts and SUPER SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB! Cover, TWO!! Bron survives, the fans fire up, and while Heyman nods, Rollins almost starts to scowl. Sami rises, the fans bring the fireflies out for Sami, and Sami storms up on Bron. Sami clinches, but Bron fights the exploder with elbows! Bron then wrenches, but Sami CHOPS, goes up, and up and TORNADO DDTS! Cover, TWO!! Bron survives, and now Heyman is a bit worried.
Rollins is still scowling the same as he was a moment ago, but the fans rally up for Sami. Sami goes to a corner, climbs up, and the fans cheer him on. But Bron is right after him! Bron anchors a leg, Sami throws down elbows, and Bron staggers away. But Bron is right back up! SUPER STEINER! The fans fire up as Bron brings down the straps! Bron aims, runs in, but Sami KICKS Bron! Sami clinches to CORNER EXPLODER! Bron sputters and the fans fire up for Sami! Sami is in the corner, he wants Bron to rise up, and he runs in, but into a SPEAR!! Bron turns things back around, and then he looms over Sami.
Bron looks to Rollins, Rollins gives the slightest nod, and Bron builds speed! SPEAR!! The fans bark while Sami flounders away to the apron. Rollins is there to tell Sami, “It doesn’t have to be this way. Take the out! There’s still time!” Sami tells Rollins, “GO TO HELL!” Sami drags himself up, but Bron builds speed! SPEAR!!! Sami is down and writhing again while the fans bark. Rollins frowns as Sami flops out to the floor. The ref checks Sami, and then he calls in the medics! Sami took a lot of damage, especially from those spears. Heyman tells Rollins to not feel bad, this isn’t on Rollins. And then Rollins tells Bron to finish this.
Bron goes outside, takes a lap, and he builds speed for the SUPER SPEAR!!! Bron just devastated Sami all over again! But then Bron tells the producers and refs to back off! Bron isn’t going to stop until Sami either gives up or is unconscious! Bron puts Sami in the ring, but the ref calls this! Bron wins!
Winner: Bron Breakker, by referee stoppage
Bron says no, this doesn’t end like that! Rollins steps inside, even as medics check Sami. Rollins has Bron stand down, he’s done his part. Sami sits up, and Rollins says tonight is the first lesson: There are people who deserve their respect! Who deserve their compassion! Sami made his bed, so now he’ll sleep in it. THEN ROLLINS CURB STOMPS SAMI!!! Heyman grins a sinister grin, fans sing “WHOA~ OH~ OHH~!” Is Rollins’ vision for Monday Night Raw and all of WWE all but inevitable?
My Thoughts:
Great episode tonight, but they snapped back to under 2.5 hours after last week’s big Raw After Mania. Rhea VS Roxie was a great match, even with Giulia getting involved. Iyo helping Rhea was good stuff, and that’s gotta be a tag match at some point. Judgment Day has continued disfunction as Finn is all out of the loop and getting put in a tag match. Great trash talk from The New Day, and great move from Penta to screw Judgment Day over. While Penta is getting a match with McDonagh, his interaction with Gable might invite an appearance from El Grande Americano. I bet Penta VS El Grande Americano could be set for Backlash. And then how hilarious would it be for the secret to be exposed just because the Lucha Brothers want a tag match with Gable and El Grande.
Very good match from Vaquer VS Nile, and that was probably one of Ivy’s best matches in awhile. Nothing else happened so this might’ve just been a good showcase for Vaquer. For all anyone knows, she’ll have a great feud with Giulia and Jordynne Grace, then Vaquer drops the title so she can jump right to Raw. Good promo from AJ Styles and Aldis to also bring in Dom, Liv & Raquel. Liv going off to do some movie stuff is cool, and I like that Dom thinks he can just get time off along with Liv. If Penta’s shifting to Gable/Grande, I bet Styles VS Dom will be the first Intercontinental Championship match for Dom’s reign.
Great promo from Becky, though I should’ve figured they were making her Bayley’s attacker. Lyra had a very good response, and their Women’s Intercontinental Championship will be a great match. I feel like Becky is about to return the favor of that NXT Women’s Championship match and take Lyra’s title. They’ll be 1-1 in their 1v1 series, and the tiebreaker can be some epic stuff for Money in the Bank in June. Very good promo from Rusev to put his return into perspective. I still think he and Otis have a match as Rusev’s in-ring return, and then he will win so he can move on to even bigger names.
Good promo from Logan, though as a Heel, he glosses over how he hasn’t actually done everything. There are a lot of titles and match accomplishments for him to still do, but whatever. Plus, great response from Jey, both verbally and with that superkick. Logan getting payback backstage was fitting of Logan being such an obnoxious Heel, and I am pretty sure this is a sign that they learned from their bad pacing with the Jey VS Gunther build. Speaking of, great promo from Pat to hype things up going into Pat VS Gunther at Backlash. I guess Pat must’ve been getting himself ready this whole time, because we’re talking 12 days until it’s time.
And of course, Seth Rollins’ new faction and how Sami Zayn stood up to him is THE story going now. Good promo to start the show, bringing up how Rollins is being no better than certainly Roman by starting a faction, and then Rollins being diplomatic in a backhanded way. Sami contemplating the choice while hearing from others was good stuff, and I like that Kross is back to copying Sami’s hair the way he also copied Styles. Naturally, Sami as a Face, he chose to stand against Rollins and his attempt to control the WWE, and we get a great main event.
If I had a nickel every time Sami lost by referee stoppage, I’d have (at least) two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but I like that it’s kinda Sami’s thing. And the framing of Rollins giving Sami that Curb Stomp was a bit obvious, but that’s why it was also perfect. I don’t know if Sami gets any allies in this fight, with so many names out there preoccupied in other stories right now, but I guess we’ll have to see if Sami even returns next week to keep fighting.
My Score: 8.8/10
