00:00I'm in the ring, I can hear you
00:02I'm in the ring
00:04Qualifying is underway for the ultimate opportunities at Money in the Bank
00:07A Tampa takeover this weekend
00:09And now Greenville is set for more action
00:11Welcome to Main Event
00:13The following contest is scheduled for one fall
00:18Introducing first
00:20From Sacramento, California
00:23Representing Alpha Academy
00:27Maxine
00:29Dupree
00:30Getting the action started here tonight
00:33With the Alpha Babe
00:34Who over the last month or so
00:36Has really been putting in the work
00:37Trying to establish herself in the singles ranks
00:39Of the Raw Women's Division
00:42As Maxine Dupree set for action here
00:46We welcome you in
00:47Blake Howard alongside the voice of NXT
00:49Vic Joseph
00:49Vic, huge weekend ahead
00:51It certainly is
00:52How come you don't say Maxine's name like Alicia Taylor
00:54I can't hit that high note
00:56And her opponent
01:11From Knoxville, Tennessee
01:14Representing American made
01:18I.V. Nile
01:21We go from the Alpha Babe to the American Pit Bull
01:24Who has had some success earlier this year
01:26Against Dupree's mentor Natalya
01:28Looking for her second win of 2025 on Main Event
01:32I don't know if you noticed that for a moment
01:34But there was a hesitation in I.V. Nile's stuff as the WWE Universe
01:39Letting her know what they think of
01:42Obviously maybe not just her
01:44But the rest of her squad
01:45Including the Creed's
01:46And Chad Gable
01:47We've certainly heard those chants
01:49Increased a bit over the last few weeks
01:51For American made
01:52And see if I.V. Nile can overcome
01:54Not the same I.V. Nile that I once knew
01:57Back in NXT
01:58The smile is gone
02:00The attitude is obviously cranked up
02:02To an 11
02:03This should be a
02:04Very tough contest though
02:06For Maxine Dupree
02:07Trying to get it right out of the gates
02:08Is Maxine
02:09Really going to learn what Maxine has
02:11Wait a minute
02:12Maxine jockeying for position
02:13Once again
02:13There's a backslide
02:14Nearly getting a cover out of the gate
02:16There's a big shot by I.V. Nile
02:18Vic
02:18This one a rematch
02:19From the Speed number one contenders tournament
02:21Where Nile got by with a
02:23Wait a minute
02:23Wait a minute
02:23Wait a minute
02:24Another pinfall
02:25Only two
02:26You know when I think about Maxine Dupree
02:28I was getting ready to say
02:29Is tonight will be a tough contest for
02:31And we're only going to see
02:32What Natalia
02:32Has done in the dungeon
02:34So to speak
02:34Because Maxine has been putting
02:36In the work
02:37To hone in on her craft
02:39No Natalia out here tonight
02:41But Vic
02:41To that point
02:42Have we seen Dupree improving
02:43Under the tutelage of the boat
02:45Well I think you have
02:46I also think you have it
02:47Is right now
02:48Things just got turned around
02:49By I.V. Nile
02:50Because at the end of the day
02:50We're all judged on one thing
02:52And that is victories
02:53That is wins
02:54That is sustained success
02:56Here in the WWE
02:57We wonder if Maxine Dupree
02:58Is ultimately buying into Natalia
03:00But taking a look
03:01At the other side
03:02Vic
03:02Is American made
03:03As locked in
03:04As they need to be
03:05Right now
03:06I.V. Nile
03:06Certainly is locked in
03:07Hopefully the Creeds
03:08Are locked in
03:09For their world
03:09Tag team title
03:10Opportunity
03:11Coming up
03:12And look
03:13Chad Gable has them
03:14Running at a high level
03:15Right now
03:15And I give a lot of credit
03:17To Chad Gable
03:17By the way
03:18For everyone that's
03:19Talking about
03:19Him being
03:20El Grande Americano
03:21Are you admitting it?
03:23No I just said
03:23For all those
03:24That are saying
03:25That he is
03:26El Grande Americano
03:27They're not the same guy
03:28Well Chad Gable
03:30Certainly a lot to overcome
03:31No Wrestlemania moment
03:32For him
03:32But American made
03:33Trying to work their way
03:34Back up
03:35You mentioned the Creeds
03:35An opportunity
03:36At the world
03:37Tag team titles

03:47Just staying right on top
03:49And I.V.
03:50Going right back
03:51To it once again
03:52Of course we saw
03:54I.V. Nile

03:55The likes of
03:55Lyra Valkyrian

03:57Money in the bank
03:58Qualifying opportunities

05:45I.V. knows Maxine
05:47Very well
05:47All the matches
05:48They've had
05:48Against one another
05:49She sensed it coming
05:51And now she's
05:51Taken full advantage
05:53And Nile
05:54Certainly added a bit
05:56Of a mean streak
05:56Ever since joining up

06:36Jessica Carr right now
06:37But I.V.'s shoulder
06:39Was up
06:39At the start
06:41Maxine had to shift
06:42Her weight
06:42And that might have
06:43Cost her
06:44You can hear the reaction
06:44Of the WWE universe
