00:30John Cena of the undisputed WWE Championship as his target this summer.
00:49What do you want to talk about?
00:51I actually want to point out this wristband right here.
00:55His name is Cam.
00:56He's battling leukemia, Pittsburgh.
00:59Let's hear it for Cam.
01:08So what does this crown stand for?
01:12I left a piece of myself in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where we've been past kings like Booker T,
01:19Bret Hart, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and Triple H.
01:23The main events of SummerSlam against the undisputed WWE Champion.
01:32I told you for weeks and weeks that I would not hesitate.
01:55I had you lay in there.
01:57I was about to rearrange your skull, brother.
02:01You didn't hesitate.
02:03You pulled the trigger.
02:06I respect you.
02:07Promise me that you will not squander this opportunity and kick John Cena's ass.
02:13You hang up.
02:33You hang up.
02:35No, no, no, please.
02:36You hang up.
02:37Oh, shut up.
02:38Thank God the alpha has returned.
02:41Randy, you know already why you lost.
02:43You hesitated on the punt.
02:45Cody here has been buttering you up for months.
02:49Like a true politician, a big hug and a knife.
02:53The night of champions, when you tweak that surgically repaired back,
02:57attacked it like a shark that smelled blood in the water.
03:00A few years ago, you were putting the Hall of Famers in the head.
03:04Super Cody.
03:05I want Cody Rhodes to be the next WWE Champion.
03:10So I can be the one to rip it out of your hands.
03:13I won't hesitate.
03:16RKO!
03:18RKO!
03:18That's the Randy Ork who is in no move for Fonnet Games as Vicious.
03:34Charlotte.
03:35Nick, how are you?
03:36Good.
03:36Did I hear something about a title opportunity?
03:39Tiffany has come to her senses and picked me for Evolution.
03:42Tiffany still gets to choose her opponent tonight,
03:44but in the meantime, I have a different title opportunity for you.
03:48A tag team number one contenders match
03:50versus The Secret Harvest versus Meechan and B-Fab.
03:54And if you win, you and your tag team partner,
03:57well, you get a tag team title shot at Evolution.
04:02You're welcome.
04:03How many times do I have to...
04:05My God, Charlotte.
04:06We're not friends.
04:07I don't want to be your friend.
04:10We should be tag partners.
04:11I'm Charlotte Flair.
04:12I don't like to share the spotlight.
04:14I hate to break it to you yet,
04:16but you haven't been in the spotlight for a long time.
04:19Okay, look.
04:20You don't know what's best for you.
04:22Don't you let me do my job?
04:24And let's be honest,
04:25I don't really think Tiffany's picking you tonight.
04:27Do you want gold at Evolution or not?
04:30Fine.
04:31Fine.
04:31Great.
04:32Good luck.
04:32Just don't get in my way.
04:37Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair.
04:39Number one contenders,
04:41Triple Threat Man.
04:43The suited and booted Secret Purpose.
04:45It comes next.
04:47I'm not going to rant and rave.
04:48My big bad words offended Randy Orton,
04:50and he struck first.
04:51Now I want Randy Orton.
04:53Can't do that.
04:54Randy Orton has left the building.
04:56If you want Randy,
04:56you can have him next week
04:58at Saturday night's main event.
05:00Listen, Jacob.
05:09Look, you can't just be attacking Solo
05:11and his whole crew
05:12and smashing up cars, all right?
05:13If you want to fight,
05:15tonight you find yourself a partner
05:16and you can have two of them
05:17in the ring.
05:22Look like you need a partner tonight.
05:24You ready to get in
05:25where you fit in?
05:27Yeah.
05:27Y'all know what I mean then.
05:30They have experienced it
05:32against the Secret Purpose.
05:38The future first ballot
05:39Hall of Famer.
05:42Well, the timing of that
05:43and the look on Charlotte's face
05:44says a lot.
05:45However,
05:46these two are a duo
05:48for one night
05:49on the same side
05:50as tag team partners.
05:52called a lapsed friendship
05:54from their days
05:55together in NXT.
05:57Now has been trying to rekindle.
05:59However,
06:01the prospect of a...
06:04or not.
06:05Spotlight.
06:06Your eyes peeled for
06:07Blyber, Niven,
06:08and their potential issues.
06:11And right to action
06:11between Alexa and Charlotte
06:13and the season-making.
06:14Boom.
06:14Clearly, Alexa spoke to Charlotte
06:16in a language.
06:17Meechin comes with that
06:18big kick
06:19to the midsection of Charlotte
06:20and then up top
06:21against Piper.
06:22Looking to grab her
06:23first piece of gold
06:24in the WWE.
06:26And Meechin comes diving out.
06:29That's it.
06:30That's their problem.
06:32Cannonballer
06:32off the apron.
06:34Alba up top
06:35diving to the outside.
06:37Put this forth.
06:38The number one contenders.
06:40Just been a masterclass
06:41by the sequel to Harvest
06:42thus far.
06:43Albeit
06:44not together.
06:46She's got a big one tonight
06:47and now it's time
06:48to make this.
06:49A big kick to Piper
06:50and now center of the ring.
06:52And now Bliss.
06:54Alexa Bliss,
06:55a woman who simply
06:56thrives fucking strong.
06:58Is she ever?
06:59Super kick though
07:00comes in for Meechin.
07:01Being an absolute
07:02menace in this match.
07:03Canadian.
07:05And a big slam.
07:06Signs of wear and tear.
07:08Black hole slam by Piper.
07:10B-Fab lining her up.
07:12Have her locked in.
07:13Alexa Flair.
07:15Oh and it's a spear.
07:16And loading it up.
07:17Look at the moonsault.
07:19Indicating that power
07:20that it was actually a tag.
07:21It's now legal.
07:22Twisted Bliss.
07:24One, two, three, four.
07:25Charlotte unknowingly did that.
07:28Is Charlotte Flair now
07:30wait a second
07:30to are now getting
07:32an opportunity
07:33at tag goal.
07:35The GMs have decided
07:36the course.
07:37Alexa and Charlotte.
07:38By giving the Wyatt 6
07:40a tag team title match
07:41and all you had to do
07:42was stay out of it.
07:43But what happened?
07:43Couldn't help yourselves.
07:44Could you?
07:45We were trying to help them.
07:46I'm trying to help your show.
07:47We are not the bad guys here.
07:48An impromptu tag match
07:50that we weren't ready for
07:51by the way.
07:51Remember that very vividly.
07:52Don't we Amigo?
07:53You guys are absolutely wit.
07:55You and Amigo
07:56could do no better.
07:57Love to fight.

08:06of the Wyatts.
08:07What's going to happen now

08:29The Wyatts 6.
08:30That band of brothers
08:31against a team
08:31made up of representatives
08:32from the rest.
08:33Well, Wade
08:34I'm really curious
08:35to see how things
08:36are going to look
08:37what we saw backstage
08:38as they were
08:39finding
08:39let's go
08:40tag team division
08:41on three things.
08:43Well, I'll tell you right now
08:44Berzo thinks he's the leader
08:45because
08:45pretty sure that Tez
08:46feels he's the leader
08:47he's Johnny Gargano
08:48and that's about it.
08:49Well, Berzo
08:50will make it over
08:51to tag Dexter Loomis
08:52side of the ring
08:53from the Wyatts
08:54as the Wyatts
08:55has simply attacked.
08:56Oh, you don't got it.
08:58It's not Wade.
08:59Very different.
09:00Oh, says he
09:01Eric Broek

09:03Job done
09:04against a massive Eric Broek
09:06Oh, and they are synced up
09:07right off the apron
09:08Oh, and he's teed up
09:11tossed Tez
09:12right to Loomis' boot
09:14In the past couple minutes
09:15against the Wyatts 6
09:17of the champions

09:44Brawler here again
09:45In combination
09:46but coming in for the save
09:47That's an impressive one

14:19Andrade and Phoenix

14:27Yeah it's a brave team that wants to enter the SmackDown tag ranks right now
14:31Two natural born competitors
14:33Natural born winners

15:14And now off the ropes flying in against Axiom as well
15:17There's two
15:19To a big frog splash
15:21There's two
15:22To a big frog splash
15:25And Frazier

15:40So watch out
15:41Oh
15:42But able to get out of the way

15:46The running double knee
15:51Moonsault
15:52Frazier rolls away
15:53Effort
15:54Hooked the leg
15:55And coming in

16:19As he's setting up the message
16:21This new fountain
16:23And we're coming for the gold
16:26And the way Phoenix saved that Spanish fly
16:28Phoenix
16:29Just the man I'm looking for
16:33Just want to talk to you about Truth

16:36In fact
16:37I just found out
16:38You and him
16:39You guys got a match next week on Smackdown
16:40See if I didn't know any better
16:42I'd say you're setting your friend up
16:43But
16:44You would never do that right
16:45No
16:46Cause
16:47You're the good guy
16:48Violence
16:49The gates of violence
16:50Who told you
16:51I'm the good guy
16:53And while we're at it
16:54Who told you
16:55That Truth
16:56Is gonna be the victim
16:57To violence
16:58Why would you?
16:59Damien?
17:00Black
17:015
17:022
17:05Tag Team contest
17:07Is scheduled for one call
17:09Trish Stratus tries to add to her
17:14Well established Hall of Fame credentials
17:16Jade and Naomi
17:18That's next Sunday
17:19July 13th
17:20Jimmy
17:22Jay
17:23FUSO
17:32And their opponent
17:33Jacob Batu was simply outlocked
17:37And outmaneuvered
17:38And Solo Sokoa knew exactly
17:41Go!
17:43Solo failed right away
17:44He started the split
17:46I don't trust him
17:47I don't like him
17:49Powerhouse a week ago
17:52And Jimmy Uso getting Polak's there effortlessly
17:57Is out of the way
18:00As he's mocking
18:01Now throwing some haymakers
18:03Oh!
18:04Spinning Solo Slam was the response
18:07Last week at Solo Sokoa won the first singles title
18:12Jacob Batu
18:13He needed the full support
18:15Long as gone are the days of I love you Solo
18:19Jaycee Matteo is more than happy to fill
18:22The athleticism
18:23Going out
18:25In a drop
18:27Too late
18:28A moment the fall by U.S. Chip
18:31Man oh man
18:32His resilience
18:33And his recuperative skills
18:35In recent days
18:40Looking to rally back
18:41But instead
18:42It's like a four pronged attack
18:44To stop the Samoan werewolf
18:46Looking to put him away
18:48It's a very different
18:50Swanton from Fatu
18:54And Matteo breaks it up
18:56Trying to take care of him for a moment
18:58Big Jim breaks free
18:59And does deliver
19:00Over the top rope
19:02Right on to Jaycee
19:04Oh man oh man
19:05Fatu comes flying out
19:07And delivers a super kick of his own
