00:00Forever.

00:09Together.

00:18Callie Armstrong first ever WWE Evolved Women's Champion.

00:23What a first title defense from Callie Armstrong.

00:26Hold on.

00:27What the hell?

00:29Oh my god, it's Jintala.

00:32Callie Armstrong, taken down by Jintala.

00:36It was me.

00:38I'm the attacker.

00:40Medical, medical.

00:41And I will eliminate anyone in my path to get to this championship.

00:49I ain't here to waste no time.

00:51Jintala, where you at?

00:52You out here trying to earn a title shot by running up on people.

00:55How about you come say it to my face?

00:57Callie, I want that title.

01:00Oh, no, no, no.

01:02I ain't waiting for no main event.

01:05I'm ready to go right now.

01:06You think I'm gonna wait for Jen to come attacking me from behind again?

01:11Nah, we ain't doing that.

01:12Where you at, Jen?

01:13Where you at, Jen?

01:14You under the mat?

01:16You behind the curtain?

01:17Where you at?

01:17Come on, where you at?

01:19See, I'm the difference maker.

01:21And I don't run from nobody.

01:23Jen, you want my Evolved Women's Championship so bad, don't you?

01:28Then come and get it.

01:31Cuz I'm the difference maker.

01:33And I'm ready right here, right now.

01:35So come out, Jen.

01:36Where you at?

01:38Come on.

01:40Oh, and there she is, Jintala.

01:42And Callie Armstrong's gonna take it to Jintala to start things off, Robert Stone.

01:46The biggest party of the summer was this past weekend.

01:49But Callie looks like she wants to start her own party right now.

01:52Callie Armstrong and Jintala not waiting, getting after it to start Evolve.

01:58Jen, Callie, if you want this match, then you can have it right now.

02:03Right now.

02:05Well, and there it is, our PM, Stevie Turner, gonna make it official.

02:10Let's not wait, let's have our Evolve Women's Championship match right now.

02:16Between Callie Armstrong and the challenger, Jintala.

02:19I was not expecting that this was scheduled for later.

02:21I saw the card, we're doing it now.

02:23But I gotta say, I mean, Jintala,

02:25she's probably 40 minutes out from being prepared to start a match.

02:28She's not warmed up, she's not stretched out.

02:31You kinda gotta give her a little credit for just coming out here and accepting this like this.

02:34Is that a mistake though?

02:35Did she fall into the champion's plan, throw her off her game?

02:39Cuz like you said, Jintala thought this would be the main event later in the show.

02:43But now, here she is.

02:44I think at this point, these two don't like each other so much.

02:48All bets are off, nobody cares, and they just wanna fight.

02:51And that seems like that's what they're doing right now.

02:53Well, Jintala getting a taste of her own medicine, of course.

02:56None of the women who she attacked in the locker room,

02:59as you see those kicks to the gut of the champion,

03:01none of them were prepared for Jintala.

03:03So now it's good for the goose.

03:05Jintala may not be as prepared as she would have liked to be,

03:08but here we are.

03:09Champion sending Jintala into the corner on a close round.

03:12Well, I'll tell you who is prepared, it's Callie Armstrong.

03:15She's been waiting to get her hands on Jintala for a while now, and a third elbow,

03:20putting it right into her chest.

03:21And she's gonna go for a pin early on, and a two count on Jintala as Callie Armstrong

03:26looks to defend her Evolve Women's Championship yet again.

03:30And of course, a big defense over Natalya Neidhart.

03:34She has shown early on just how impressive she can be as a champion.

03:39That's right.

03:40The last time we saw her, she got a win over Natalya, and now she is here in her next match.

03:45She has that momentum going into this, and you know what?

03:48She's proud representing where she's from in Englewood, and Englewood is proud of her.

03:53Ever since she's become WWE Evolve Women's Champion, her life has changed.

03:58It has been a big year in change for the West Coast.

04:03I mean, coming out of Kendrick Drake, and then Callie Armstrong from Englewood becomes

04:07the first Evolve Women's Champion.

04:09It's another win for the West.

04:10It is the same thing, but hey, let's not get ahead of ourselves,

04:14because Jintala is here, and she is ready to take that championship off of Callie.

04:19I expect you to have a cheesy Not Like Us reference there.

04:22That's what I thought, but you don't even know Not Like Us do.

04:24Give me a break, Peter.

04:25We're in a championship match here, baby.

04:27And Callie with the slam to the challenger, Jintala, who, you know, Jintala, she was told

04:34when she was on LFG that she was not aggressive enough, and she says that's the reason why she

04:40brought this aggression to Evolve, and even though I don't appreciate the way she did it,

04:45she certainly got her message across, Robert Stone.

04:47Yeah, if you would have said to me a few weeks ago, who do I think is this attacker backstage,

04:53the absolute last person on my list would have been Jintala.

04:59All right, they told her on LFG that she wasn't aggressive enough,

05:02but she looks pretty aggressive right here.

05:04And now she has the champion, Ruzi, and a 619 from Jintala.

05:09A little taste of the Mysterios, did not expect that.

05:12And Callie Armstrong, the champion, in a bit of a bad way here early on.

05:18Get up!

05:19The fuse has been lit on NXT.

05:33Welcome back to WWE Evolve on 2B, Peter Rosenberg, Robert Stone.

05:49And yes, your eyes are not deceiving you.

05:50We are having our Women's Evolve Championship match.

05:53Out of the gate, the challenger, Jintala, and our champion, Callie Armstrong.

05:59Who right now, on the defensive, is Jintala going to work?

06:03Has Jintala surprised you in her first ever championship match?

06:06She's doing great.

06:07I mean, she is very confident.

06:08Clearly, she is the changed woman, and these two go together like fire and gasoline,

06:12because this match has been lit, Peter.

06:16Yeah, I said it.

06:17That was, did you just learn lit?

06:19Suplex there, Jintala.

06:22You should learn, pinfall now, and a two count on the champion.

06:26Jin's been all about the shing-shing action, very aggressive, very great ring control.

06:33She really went into this match with a game plan, and she knows exactly what she's doing.

06:38Some elbows to the chest of the champ.

06:42And now, Jintala's gonna try to cinch in some sort of arm bar here and work the gut of Callie Armstrong.

06:50Impressive moment here for Jintala.

06:51Like I said, her first ever Evolve Championship match.

06:57Well, I'll tell you this.

06:58People often forget who helped them, but they never forget who hurt them.

07:02And Callie hasn't forgotten what Jintala has done to her.

07:05Hasn't forgotten what she has done to the whole female locker room.

07:09Well, not only did Jintala attack the champion when she was not prepared, but as you just mentioned,

07:16several women in the locker room as well surprising everyone.

07:21And I'm a bit surprised right now to see Callie Armstrong getting ragdolled a bit by Jintala.

07:27But we cannot count out the difference maker, the history maker.

07:30Too strong Armstrong.

07:33She is trying to move her body.

07:35She is trying to gain some momentum.

07:37She's trying to stay alive.

07:38And if you're Jintala, you are just trying to keep Callie Armstrong on the ground.

07:44Callie gets a vertical base.

07:46You might have problems.

07:47Jintala now trying to keep her down with some slaps to the face.

07:52But this is just annoying, Callie.

07:54It's like she's getting fired up.

07:56Callie Armstrong with shades of the late great Hulk Hogan hulking up and

08:02connecting with punches to the challenger.

08:04Look at those beautiful Ronnie Garvin, Jerry Lawler like punches.

08:08Followed by a shoulder block and then another with the elbow.

08:14And Callie Armstrong with the spine buster.

08:16Callie Armstrong will try to finish this thing off.

08:18Two and a kick out from Jintala.

08:22Callie Armstrong now back in control.

08:24Still feeling some of the effects from Jintala's offense earlier,

08:28but appears to be regaining her confidence and her footing, Robert Stone.

08:33Can she seal the deal?

08:35Not with a miss like that.

08:36This could be it.

08:37Roll up.

08:38Two and a kick out by the champ as Jintala takes advantage of that miss.

08:45Taekwondo kick.

08:48Is she going for another 619?

08:50Oh, she got caught this time.

08:52Yeah, the second time the champ was ready.

08:54And Callie's prepared for that power slam, taking down Jintala.

09:01I think I might know what's next, Peter.

09:03Callie Armstrong looking to defend yet again.

09:07Can she connect with the Callie connection?

09:10She does.

09:13Jintala is not getting up from that.

09:16Here is your winner.

09:21It's still WWE vault women's champion, Callie Armstrong.

09:30Another defense in the books for Callie Armstrong.

09:33Let's look back.

09:33Jintala connected with the 619 earlier, did not expect that.

09:38But then Robert Stone, she tried one too many times.

09:41Ends up getting caught by the champ.

09:43The result, the power slam.

09:47And of course, in the end, you know where Callie's going.

09:50The Callie connection.

09:52That powerful flying shoulder block.

09:54That did the job.

09:56One, two, three, and still.

10:01Callie Armstrong.

10:02Make some noise for my girl, Callie Armstrong, y'all.

10:07Congratulations under the tight defense.

10:10How do you feel, homie?

10:12Hey, Chewy.

10:14I warned you, and you see what happened.

10:17Anytime you step in the ring with the champ, with a difference maker,

10:21the same thing gonna happen every single time.

10:25That's how I roll.

10:29Hello, Carmen Petrovich is here on Evolve.

10:34You never know who's gonna show up on a Wednesday.

10:36Callie, Callie, Callie, congratulations.

10:40Now that Jintal is out of your way, let me remind you that we still have some

10:44unfinished business from NXT a few weeks ago.

10:48Now I'm not saying that you're ducking me or that you're scared of the shing shing action.

10:52But I gave you some time, and you didn't show back up on NXT.

10:58So I'm here to officially make my Evolve debut, and I'm not leaving without that championship.

11:05After their NXT match was ruined, it's official.

11:12Carmen Petrovich is here on Evolve.

11:14She's so hot, you could probably see her through your sunglasses.

11:18She's so dope.

11:19Boys!

11:20Yeah!

11:21Gentlemen, how we doing?

11:22Dope.

11:23Family, game.

11:24It was good champ.

11:24Just having a great time with a great lady, but she wouldn't know Zeta Steele, I'll tell you that.

11:28That was fun.

11:29Thank you, thank you.

11:29You're well coined, bro.

11:30You're coined.

11:31Have you guys, did any guys make out what Keanu Carver said about us?

11:36Yeah.

11:37Yeah, I did actually.

11:38He, uh, he said he's coming after the top dogs of the WWE ID program.

11:42All right, don't sweat it though, boys.

11:43Honestly, I think Keanu's just a little bit jealous of the vanity project.

11:46And honestly, so is everyone else involved.

11:48Everyone wants the top spot, but that's just not gonna happen.

11:51Bro, we're at the top of everything right now.

11:52Evolve, the WWE ID program.

11:55Bro, we're even in a group chat with the North American champion, Ethan Page, right now.

11:59He's coming after my Evolve championship.

12:02I mean, have you seen Keanu?

12:03Bro, he's got hands of stone, tree trunk legs, and he's low-key crazy.

12:08That's true.

12:08I have been on his Twitter recently.

12:10He is a Hall of Fame champion.

12:11In addition to Keanu, I got that lost cause Brooks Jensen on my ass.

12:18Can the kid catch a break?

12:19All right, Jackson, dude, one thing at a time, one thing at a time.

12:22Look, eliminate and survive.

12:23That's the name of the game.

12:24And Smokes and I, we got your back, dude, okay?

12:26We talked to Stevie.

12:27We got Keanu a match against Bryce Donovan.

12:30He's gonna knock him down.

12:31Yeah, buddy.

12:32It's gonna be, dude.

12:34Why didn't you tell me that?

12:36We just did.

12:38You got this, buddy.

12:38Yeah, is there a problem or something?

12:40I don't think it's that deep.

12:40Great.

12:41Bryce takes out Keanu, and our Keanu problem is solved.

12:45Good meeting, boys.

12:46Great meeting.

12:47Yeah, that's fine.

12:47Fantastic meeting.

12:50You got this.

12:52I still think you deserve your shot at the championship.

12:55It'll come, but you gotta have a bigger problem on your hands right now,

12:57because what's going on with Wendy?

13:00Dude, I don't know.

13:00She's like stalking me.

13:02Yeah.

13:02She shows up out of nowhere.

13:03Weirdo.

13:04Doesn't talk.

13:04Nope.

13:05Doesn't move.

13:06And then she wants to disappear.

13:07It's honestly starting to piss me off.

13:09I don't blame you.

13:10And her popping up right behind you cost me my return match against Chantala.

13:15But nothing is sweeter than revenge, and that's exactly what I'm gonna get tonight.

13:18No, no, no, no, no.

13:19Let me have this match, because I want to go out there and rip her arm off.

13:23I know, and I feel your frustration, but this one's for me.

13:26I can do it for the both of us.

13:28I promise.

13:30All right, fine.

13:31Just leave me a piece of Wendy.

13:33I'll leave you that pillow.

13:34Ew.

13:34No, come on, let's go.

13:36Okay.

13:36As you just heard, The Vanity Project's Bryce Donovan's taking on Keanu Carver,

13:41but before that, Carly Bright looking to step up to stop the sleepy psycho, Wendy Chu,

13:46before she's able to further torment her bestie, Kendall Gray.

13:50It all goes down next on EVOL.

13:56Welcome, everyone, to the biggest event of the summer.

14:00For more than 35 years, SummerSlam has delivered some of the most amazing moments in WWE history.

14:07I am completely in shock right now.

14:11And in 2026, we will once again make history.

14:15Fasten your seatbelts.

14:17Seatbelts.

14:17It is about to go down.

14:19Let's go!

14:21Saturday, August 1st, and Sunday, August 2nd, 2026, in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

14:28Live from the world-class US Bank Stadium, WWE will bring two epic nights of SummerSlam to the Twin Cities.

14:37So there's only one question to ask.

14:43Are you ready?

14:52The next chapter of WWE ID started last Friday when Game Changer Wrestling presented the ID Showcase.

15:00The historic event saw the crowning of the first-ever WWE ID Men's and Women's Champions.

15:06The finals, Jack Hartlewell versus Cappuccino Jones.

15:11They are friends and partners.

15:12Congratulations to Cappuccino Jones on becoming the inaugural Men's Champion.

15:18Our first-ever WWE ID Men's Champion is Cappuccino Jones.

15:24Kylie Rae, Zara Zacker, and Zayda Steele.

15:29Triple Threatment for WWE ID Women's Championship.

15:34And Kylie Rae are becoming the first Women's Champion.

15:37Kylie Rae has done it!

15:40The WWE ID Championships will be exclusively defended all over the independent wrestling world against both WWE ID prospects and independent wrestlers.

15:51If an independent wrestler wins the WWE ID Championship, they'll be signed to a WWE ID contract.

16:00This will start the ID prospects on the road to WWE Evolve.

16:07Then NXT, and on to Raw or SmackDown.

16:11The opportunity has never been bigger for independent wrestlers.

16:15WWE scouts continue to watch independent wrestling promotions all over the world to find the next WWE superstars.

16:23You never know where or when the next WWE ID prospect will be discovered.

16:28Who will be the next independent prospect to be ID'd?

16:36But I want to welcome you, Carmen, here to Evolve.

16:38And I want to apologize again about what happened on NXT with your title match with Kylie.

16:43As long as I get a rematch, we're fine.

16:45Listen, I assure you, you will get everything that you-

16:48No, no, no, no.

16:50I'm sorry, Prime Minister.

16:52Carmen, this is not NXT, and I don't care what happens there.

16:56But this is Evolve, and if anyone deserves a shot against Kali, it's going to be me.

17:01Tyra, you should care what happens on NXT.

17:04Because last time I checked, that's where you want to be, right?

17:07And I'm already on there.

17:09Whoa, ladies, ladies, ladies.

17:11There's no fighting in the Prime Minister's office, okay?

17:15It's great that you're both so hungry.

17:18Carmen, Tyra is right, this isn't NXT.

17:21This is Evolve.

17:22But Carmen, she does deserve that opportunity.

17:25So here's what I'm going to do.

17:27Next week, it's going to be Carmen Petrovic versus Tyra Mae Steele in a women's title eliminator match.

17:33I like that.

17:34You like that?

17:35Oh, yeah.

17:35I like that, too.

17:36Good.

17:37I'll see you next week.

17:38See ya.

17:38Brilliant.

17:39Sign me up, Robert Stone, next week.

17:42Let's do it.

17:43The following contest is scheduled for one fall.

17:48Introducing first, accompanied by Kendall Gray, from Kenosha, Wisconsin, Carly Wright.

17:57What do you think about that news, Robert Stone?

17:59Championship eliminator next week, Carmen and Tyra.

18:03Hands down, career changing match for both of them.

18:07Whoever comes on top of that is definitely going to have a new path here in Evolve.

18:11Whoever loses finds themselves on the outside looking in as we take a look at Carly Wright getting ready for Wendy Chu.

18:18Kendall Gray with her best friend.

18:34And her opponent from the city that never sleeps, Wendy Chu.

18:42The Sleepy Psycho, legitimately one of the creepiest people in professional wrestling, Wendy Chu, is back at it now.

18:54It appears that she has Kendall Gray in her sights, but tonight she'll have to deal with her best friend, Carly Wright.

18:59Yeah, the gatekeeper of Evolve, the real life Chucky Doll, the dream killer, the sleep demon, is back in action.

19:07I think the last time we saw her in action was that last woman's standing match.

19:10We saw how wild and crazy that was.

19:13So how much pent-up anger does she have in her since then, now that she's back in a place where she can let it all out?

19:21Hard to fully understand why Kendall Gray drew the ire of Wendy Chu, but that is where we are.

19:28You never can really understand what the sleep demon is thinking about.

19:31I don't know if I knew that.

19:32Well, here's the thing. Have you ever seen the movie The Strangers?

19:35Yeah, sure.

19:36The reason that the villains went after the nice people, the innocent people, was just because their light was off.

19:43It was just because they were bored. It was just because they were there.

19:45And I think Wendy was walking around somewhere, saw Kendall and just said to herself, hey, you know what?

19:49You're next.

19:49You may be right. That is certainly how it felt. Now the question is, can Carly Bright, at the very least,

19:55do something to slow down Wendy Chu, soften her up for Kendall Gray? And obviously, ideally,

20:02for Carly, get a W, which she absolutely needs in this women's division.

20:06Well, this past Sunday was National Sisters Day. And although Carly and Kendall aren't sisters by blood,

20:12they're kind of sisters by friendship. So she wanted to have this match. And, you know,

20:17she came to the ring smiling. And that's a very confident thing to do. That's a very new Carly thing,

20:22to have a smile on your face when you're walking into a match with Wendy Chu. I know she wants

20:26retribution against her. She cost her a match against Chantala a few weeks ago. But, I mean,

20:31this is Wendy Chu she's going against. Now, I can't help but recall when you doubted the friendship,

20:37the camaraderie of Carly, Kendall Gray. Are you surprised that they've really turned into a real

20:42team? I mean, when you looked at them a few months ago, they were very opposite. And I guess

20:46opposite's a track because they're getting along great right now. Oh, my God. A terrifying

20:52look for Wendy Chu as she goes after Carly Bright. Bright quickly ducks under. Carly Bright very

21:00athletic. She has really been showing an aggressive side lately. The resident ray

21:07of sunshine is stronger than ever. This is indeed a new Carly, but this is indeed Wendy Chu she's

21:12going against. It may be a new Carly, but it's the same old Wendy Chu. And that is not good news

21:17if you are across the ring from the Sleepy Psycho. As she takes down, Carly Bright goes back to work.

21:23And don't forget, Wendy Chu, in addition to all the weird tactics, she is just capable of some good

21:28old technical wrestling as well. Oh, her speed is like no other. It is scary fast, pun intended.

21:35She knows what she's doing between those ropes. There's that athleticism I was just talking about

21:41with Carly Bright. She sends down Wendy Chu. Wendy Chu will not be deterred and tries to go back to

21:47work on the arm of Carly Bright. Carly looking to spit out of things, use that athleticism to get

21:54herself free. And she does just that. Those are definitely some wrestling holds she has been

21:59practicing and training with her friend Kendall. You cannot practice for that. The face of that lunatic

22:05staring up at you. But smart stuff right there from Carly. And she'll go for an innovative pin. And

22:10Wendy Chu will kick out at two. And now a roll up from Carly Bright. And another kick out from Wendy.

22:18Kick to the gut of Carly Bright. You know, it's a very bizarre situation. Even when offense is being

22:25done to Wendy. Even when she's getting pinned, she still seems to have a smile on her face. It's almost

22:30like, does she like pain? Does she like the fact that she's toying with Carly and letting Carly think

22:35maybe she has a chance of winning the snaps? I don't know.

22:39Well, it begs the question, who's smile do you prefer, that of Carly Bright or Wendy Chu? Two

22:43beautiful smiles. I mean, who do you think I'm picking? I've had nightmares about Wendy Chu.

22:48Now, you are aware that there's a smile drawn onto her face as well. You're aware of that?

22:52Yeah, there's two or three of them. Okay. Beautiful dropkick by Carly.

22:56And there's Wendy Chu with the ring awareness rolling out. Catching a break on the outside. Will Carly

23:02follow? Looks like she will. And as Kendall distracts, Carly Bright takes advantage.

23:08And takes down Wendy Chu. More of this match next, right here on Yvonne.

23:13This November, the Padres' home field gets a whole new lineup. When WWE.

23:22An absolutely incredible scene. It's Petco Park. A slugfest for the ages.

23:32My goodness. The epic performance that no one will ever forget.

23:40WWE Survivor Series San Diego. Tickets on sale now.

23:48Welcome back to WWE Evolve. Peter Rosenberg, Robert Stone, and Wendy Chu, and Carly Bright in the middle of a good one right here.

23:57Carly Bright, Robert, decided to take this match earlier today and may be regretting it right now.

24:03That was not a good landing. And remember, Kendall offered to step in and have the match.

24:08Carly said, no, I want this match. She said, no, I want Wendy Chu. Who says that out loud?

24:13You know who says that? It's called being a real one, Robert Stone. You ever heard that?

24:16I'm not a real one when it comes to Wendy. I'm not putting my life on the line,

24:20my body on the line against someone like this. Just look at this woman.

24:23You said it is a lot to take in Wendy Chu if you're standing across the ring from that face

24:32and demonic style. And also the athleticism is a straight right hand or two from Carly Bright.

24:38She's going to try to take out Wendy Chu with fists. Wendy responds.

24:43Doing her best to stay alive but right back down. Going for a pin two and she'll catch

24:48a two count on Carly Bright as you see Kendall Gray looking on at her best friend.

24:54Yeah, I feel like now Kendall might be getting a little worried and maybe having second thoughts

24:58about not talking Carly out of this match because she's in a bad predicament right here.

25:03Kendall Gray did try. She wanted to be in it, but Carly Bright said, as you pointed out,

25:08absolutely not. I got you. And now she finds herself in a tough spot with Wendy Chu.

25:13Peter, your neck, your head is not supposed to be stretched that way.

25:18Yeah, she's turned the wrong way. She's not a chiropractor.

25:21No, I'm aware of that. She's not a physical therapist.

25:25She's a professional wrestler, Robert. Yeah, that's right.

25:29Wendy Chu looking to get Carly Bright up in there. Could do it. Bright responds

25:33with a close line as the non-chiropractor going to work on Wendy Chu.

25:38Well, she does have heart and heart equals fight. She is fighting. Ducks under. Nice jumping neck

25:46breaker. Connecting with the neck breaker and standing Moonsault goes for a pin. Can she take

25:52out Wendy Chu? She cannot. She is throwing everything she could possibly throw at Wendy,

25:59but it's not enough. And I think Carly right now is just looking almost puzzled. What does she have to

26:03do? It appears Carly may have Wendy scouted, but Wendy gets out of the way on that one.

26:09Elbow there from Carly Bright to send Wendy Chu really. Now Carly looks to go up top.

26:15Slap to the face. This didn't go well the first time she went up top. It absolutely did not. That's

26:20a great point. She's going to try again and go all the way to the top rope. Carly Bright,

26:26what's she have in store? She hits it. Cross body, runs into a pin.

26:31Kick out on two. As Wendy Chu took that high cross body from the top rope,

26:36right into a pin. But Carly Bright able to kick out. Carly. More innovation there,

26:44turning things around. Impressive. And looking again to roll up Wendy Chu.

26:49Wendy kicks out. Wait a minute. Are we going dirt now? Why'd she reverse it?

26:53And a dirt nap turns into a pin. Bright kicks out. Boom.

26:57Capitalized Carly. Carly's gonna go for another pinfall. Can she take out Wendy Chu?

27:03Two and three quarters. She almost beat Wendy Chu. I'm sweating.

27:08How disenchanting is it when you go for a pinfall in a moment like that? You think you have someone

27:12and they kick out at the last moment. But you need to keep moving. That's the thing,

27:15you can't sit there and think about it. This is Wendy Chu. You gotta make a move.

27:19Carly Bright, you're right, needs to take advantage right now and try to score another pin.

27:22You cannot let Wendy get back into this thing. They're exchanging blows and now kicks in the

27:28middle of the ring. I never thought I'd be seeing Wendy and Carly going back and forth,

27:33but I'm here for it. Carly's got Wendy up. And Wendy Chu has turned it around.

27:39Oh man, that monster clothesline looking for dirt nap. She's got it locked in. Is Carly gonna tap?

27:52Oh, he's locked in and she is in the middle of the ring. Not a lot of people escaped the dirt nap,

27:56Robert Stone. And she's looked like- That's it. She passed out. Yeah. She took the nap.

28:04Here is your winner. By submission, Wendy Chu.

28:10Wendy Chu bounces back, locks in the dirt nap. A valiant effort from Carly Bright. But in the end,

28:20in the middle of the ring, nowhere to go. Completely wrapped up. She loses air and passes out.

28:26Hey, she never gave up. No shame in that. You see the distraction from Kendall Gray. And Carly

28:32Bright took advantage on the outside early on. As the offense was intense, that big neck breaker from

28:38Carly, she had a moment right there. But then, that monster clothesline, the perfect setup.

28:44And while Carly Bright never tapped, she showed a lot of resilience, a lot of heart. She passes out.

28:53Wendy Chu gets the win. And you see the concern there, Robert. Kendall Gray looking at Wendy Chu.

29:00Let's send things backstage to our colleague, Chewie Martinez.

29:03Evolve fam, how you doing? Chewie Martinez here hanging out with my buddy, Tate Wilder.

29:08And I gotta say, man, congratulations on your first Evolve match, my friend.

29:12The thoughts, what's going on through your head, brother?

29:14Chewie, I appreciate that. Yeah.

29:16You know, it was so nice to finally get on that horse.

29:20It was like when you're riding a dirt bike and you see this big old hill and you just gotta send it full throttle.

29:24In there.

29:25Unfortunately, things just didn't go my way.

29:29I guess that's why Idris is EOE for a reason.

29:32Yeah. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

29:34Gosh.

29:36You didn't jump any hill.

29:38You crashed and burned. Now, Chewie, I don't know why you're interviewing this man.

29:43You know, better yet, let me take over his interview.

29:45Let me do a little interview.

29:46Hold on, hold on, hold on.

29:47We were having a conversation here.

29:49Yeah.

29:49You come in like a fox in the chicken coop, stirring things up for no reason.

29:53You are nothing more than what I was in 2022.

29:56A young, immature cowboy who is soon gonna realize that in this place,

30:01you get chewed up and spit out and left jaded.

30:05All right, wait a minute, Brooks.

30:06You walk out on Jordan Oasis and now you're interrupting interviews.

30:10What is the deal here, brother?

30:11What are you trying to prove?

30:12Look, Jordan was an interesting cat.

30:14He's a nomad.

30:15He's a man of the road.

30:17I thought if I could help him,

30:19he could help me.

30:20Okay.

30:22But then I realized that he was nothing more than a dead end and a dead weight,

30:27just like the man that I'm looking at right now.

30:30Hold up, hold up.

30:31First, Ridge is talking crap.

30:33And now you, Brooks?

30:34Yeah.

30:35Well, if Ridge doesn't have the fortitude to get in the ring with me,

30:40maybe you do.

30:40Whoa.

30:43Light work.

30:44Go find Stevie.

30:48Keanu Carver, Bryce Donovan, main event coming up next.

30:52Take you good?

30:55Let's go.

31:00I've been around the block a few times in my WWE career.

31:03Some have moved on to Raw and SmackDown.

31:06Some have moved out.

31:07But I'm still here.

31:08Every NXT coconut live event, fighting through injuries,

31:13keeping myself sharp, and ready for anything that comes my way.

31:18So an opportunity in Evolve showed up, and I took it.

31:22Drove in head first.

31:24It's easy to get cynical, but I never expected it from you, Idris.

31:30You turn into someone you're not.

31:32Why?

31:33Because you didn't get special treatment?

31:34You look like a star, carry yourself like a star.

31:39But just because you call yourself the EOE,

31:41doesn't mean you should be handed championships.

31:44You've got to go out and earn it.

31:46And that is the difference between you and me.

31:49You take shortcuts while I go the long way.

31:52I climb up the hill while you scheme how someone is going to carry you up.

31:57I talk to Stevie Turner.

31:58And next week, we ride it back.

32:00This time, Dante Chen gives you the Singaporean ass-whooping.

32:09You've earned.

32:13Wow, a lot there from Dante Chen.

32:16Idris and Dante both seasoned performers.

32:19And next Wednesday, they face off once again.

32:22Let's see who will have the performance that stands out most

32:25in the eyes of PM Stevie Turner.

32:27And speaking of Stevie Turner, we saw her make this epic match official earlier tonight.

32:32It'll be the formidable Carmen Petrovic against Olympic gold medalist.

32:36And LFG Season 1 winner, Tyra Mae Steele, in an Evolve Women's Championship

32:42Eliminator match next Wednesday right here on WWE Evolve.

32:46Let's go.

32:47But right now, it is time to turn up, Peter.

32:52Because the party is officially here.

32:56Hey, this past weekend at SummerSlam MetLife Stadium, did you see everybody just randomly

33:00throwing up bees?

33:01Everybody was throwing up the bees.

33:03I did not see that.

33:04But Brad Baylor, Jackson Drake, Ricky Smokes.

33:09Of course, the champion introducing his heater, Bryce Donovan.

33:14You have a little more energy, Peter.

33:16I mean, great minds think alike, and clearly they think it blue.

33:19Look at them all matching in the blue.

33:20How cool is this?

33:21I thought I was giving a very fair introduction to Bryce Donovan.

33:24You think I'm not excited.

33:25I'll tell you it wasn't excited.

33:26Bryce Donovan, when he found out he had to face Keanu Carver tonight.

33:30I mean, I agree with you there.

33:31Threw him off a little bit, but it is what it is.

33:33He's Bryce Donovan.

33:34He is undefeated in singles competition and Evolve.

33:38And he's ready for Keanu Carver.

33:41All right, well, let's take a look back.

33:42Keanu Carver had a big win over Super Sean Legacy.

33:46And he had a lot to say after the win.

33:50I told you, ain't nobody in that ID project gonna stop.

33:54That's another one there.

33:55Can't let him touch.

33:57Not Jackson Drake.

33:58Not the vanity project.

33:59I'm coming for every single day.

34:01What do you got?

34:04So imagine you're Bryce Donovan, and you show up to the building today.

34:10You think you're just hanging out, maybe working out a little bit, and

34:13you find out you're facing this behemoth with this kind of attitude, Keanu Carver.

34:18I'm taking nothing away from Keanu.

34:21I'm not saying it's going to be hard competition.

34:23I'm just saying, I just mentioned it.

34:25We're talking about Bryce Donovan, a man who's undefeated.

34:29A man who's beat Timothy Thatcher.

34:31A man who's beat Sean Legacy.

34:33It's not just a nobody in here.

34:34Absolutely not.

34:35And those names you mentioned are great, but Keanu Carver's a different kind of dude.

34:46The following contest is scheduled for one fall.

34:49One fall.

34:50Introducing first, from Long Beach, New York, weighing at 230 pounds,

34:55representing the Vanity Project, Bryce Donovan.

35:05And his opponent, from Washington DC, weighing at 290 pounds, Keanu Carver.

35:18All righty.

35:20Our main event here on WWE Evolve every single Wednesday night on Tubi, 8 p.m.

35:29I'm Peter Rosenberg, the man next to me, Robert Stone, the former sheriff of TNA.

35:35And look at Bryce Donovan going to work right away, Peter.

35:39How aggressive is he right on Keanu, right from the belt?

35:43Well, you tell me, is that absolutely the right way to play this?

35:47You have to just go right after this man?

35:49Why wouldn't it be?

35:50You don't want to waste anything.

35:51Time waits for Nomad.

35:53This is the main event of Evolve.

35:54He wants to keep his undefeated streak alive.

35:58Now, you're telling me there'd be no benefit to maybe just trying to stick and move,

36:02stay away, get outside the ring, tire the guy out.

36:06I don't know if going after him is the smartest thing.

36:08I mean, we're not talking about someone that's half Keanu's size.

36:11We're talking about someone who just gave him a shot and took him off the apron.

36:14You're absolutely right.

36:15Bryce Donovan, a big man himself with a lot of power in both hands, athletic as well.

36:20Oh, man.

36:20But this is the problem.

36:22You're dealing with an absolute beast.

36:25And not only that, Keanu Carver, as you heard him earlier, has a battery in his back.

36:30He wants to take out the entire ID program.

36:33And he wants to get started this week with Bryce Donovan.

36:36Whether it's the ring, the floor, the locker room, clearly he will fight anyone, anywhere.

36:41We gotta take a break.

36:43We will be right back.

36:44You're making a rookie mistake right now.

36:46Keep your eyes on your opponent.

36:47WWE live is louder than ever.

36:58And they're bringing the noise city to city.

37:01We, we, we take it now.

37:05We take it now.

37:06We, we, we take it now.

37:09We take it now for now.

37:11We on the way.

37:15So get ready to join the action.

37:1911 brand new events.

37:21Tickets on sale now.

37:26Welcome back to your main event.

37:29Bryce Donovan of the Vanity Project and Keanu Carver.

37:32Donovan was tossed into this match earlier by his Padres.

37:36Dasty.

37:38Big boot.

37:38He's gonna try to pin the big man.

37:40And Keanu's out on two.

37:41And think about this, Peter.

37:43Bryce just found out about this match today.

37:45He didn't have all week to prepare for this match with someone like Keanu Carver.

37:50He's just going into this almost blind.

37:52And look what he's doing to the big man.

37:55Donovan going to work.

37:56The big man from Long Beach, New York.

37:59Laying in those shots.

38:01This is why he's the heavy of the Vanity Project, of the VP.

38:04Gonna try to get another pin.

38:06I don't think Keanu's going down another two count as the Vanity Project looks on.

38:13Next Wednesday, Idris Hinofe and Dante Chin is gonna be a hell of a matchup.

38:18Both guys looking to impress our PM, Stevie Turner.

38:21Donovan's gonna try to pick up Keanu Carver.

38:25And yeah, that didn't work out.

38:28And there's the power we're talking about.

38:30Donovan finds his way out.

38:32Kicked the rope right into his throne and now took his head off for the clothesline.

38:36Shades of JBL, that clothesline.

38:39I'm telling you, I have never seen Keanu rocking like this.

38:44Now another pin.

38:45I like Donovan continues to try to put this thing away.

38:50And man, that clothesline had some power.

38:52And now he kicked out of the pin and right into the rear.

38:56Chin lock, got him locked in.

38:58He is not wasting any space, not wasting any time.

39:01As the champ, Jackson Drake is looking on with a smile on his face.

39:04So why wouldn't he?

39:05Well, he smiled, but you know, it sort of reminds me of like in a boxing match.

39:09You know, when a boxer smiles because they're trying to pretend they didn't get tagged, but they did.

39:13I wonder if Jackson Drake just a bit nervous about what he's been hearing from Keanu Barber.

39:18What are you trying to say right now?

39:19What are you trying to say?

39:20That there's a target on his back from everyone in the locker room, including the big man in the ring right now.

39:25He's here for it, he's a fighting champion.

39:27He's the first ever evolved champion.

39:29He's ready for it.

39:30He may be, but that doesn't mean you don't have concerns.

39:33You would certainly like to see, as you put it, the heavy of the Vanity Project at least

39:39do some damages.

39:39Now Jackson Drake talking trash to Keanu in the corner.

39:43Speaking of concerns, I've been concerned for the whole WWE ID program because Keanu has been

39:48taking him out one by one like Jaws took out his people one by one in the ocean.

39:53What's good for Keanu is good for Donovan.

39:57A big clothesline there from Carver, who is now taking it to Bryce Donovan,

40:03who is looking like he's dreaming of being back in Long Beach.

40:07My goodness, the power from Carver.

40:10He just threw the big man around like a ragdoll.

40:12That's a human he's throwing.

40:14Can't help but notice a little bit of nerves from the Vanity Project.

40:21You saw Ricky Smokes jumping up and down.

40:22You see a little bit of impatience now from the champion.

40:25I see some sweat now.

40:26I see him sweating.

40:27Carver's now going for a pin.

40:30Donovan kicks out.

40:32Vanity Project been on an epic run so far in WWE Evolve, but so has Keanu Carver.

40:39He is as powerful a man as exists in the ID program where we have some of the best

40:48young talent in the world competing.

40:52Bryce Donovan going to work from the top rope.

40:56Keanu Carver decided he's had enough.

40:59And now what's gonna happen?

41:00A right hand to Donovan.

41:02Keanu Carver is a loose cannon.

41:04He's capable of anything.

41:06Can he control himself to make sure he wins an actual match and doesn't get himself disqualified.

41:12And doesn't do something stupid to ruin it for himself.

41:15He needs to control what he's doing.

41:16There have been moments when he has fully let go.

41:19And his desire to harm has surpassed his desire to win.

41:24He's looking to stay focused tonight.

41:26Wait a second.

41:27That's a lot of weight on Bryce's shoulders right now.

41:30Where are we going?

41:31Down.

41:32The ring shook.

41:34Bryce Donovan's got a chance to pin Keanu Carver.

41:37Bryce, why are we still out of here?

41:41Why are we still out of here?

41:43What have we done yet?

41:46Do you, do you got it?

41:49Well, this is not what you're looking for if you're a fan of the Vanity Project,

41:54Robert Stone.

41:57A little bit of dissent between members.

42:00And now the Samoan drop.

42:03And Bryce Donovan looking to get out of harm's way.

42:10Man, there's already some issues earlier today.

42:13Donovan seems surprised about this matchup.

42:14And now Jackson Drake seems disappointed in the performance so far.

42:18Back to that throat.

42:19He just took Keanu right to the middle rope.

42:21Donovan's calling for a chair.

42:34Ricky Smokes is now trying to seek out a chair.

42:36What are we doing here, Ricky?

42:38And what are you doing, Bryce Donovan?

42:40You're in this match.

42:42It's not like he has no chance.

42:43Wait, Jensen, what's Brooks here?

42:44Come on, now the aforementioned Brooks Jensen is back.

42:48He's squaring up with the champ, and watch out.

42:51And Jordan Oasis.

42:53Jordan Oasis has had beef with Jensen ever since he walked out on him in that tag match.

42:58But come on, there's a match going on.

43:00All right, now Baylor finally gets the chair.

43:02Bryce, turn around.

43:03Watch out.

43:06Watch out.

43:10Oh, that is a tough one to get up from, and he did.

43:13But now that's gonna do it for Bryce Donovan.

43:19Here is your winner, Keanu Carver.

43:29What a win for Keanu Carver, and what a bad moment for the Vanity Project.

43:36We're gonna be talking about this for quite a while.

43:38As you see the champ, Jackson Drake, looking right at Keanu Carver.

43:42Let's take a look back.

43:43Bryce Donovan really brought a lot of power and impressive offense.

43:47You see, the power slam, the electric chair.

43:50He had Keanu Carver rocking for a moment.

43:53A lot of innovative offense.

43:55Donovan did his thing, but then the melee outside the ring.

43:59The ring between Brooks Jensen and Jordan Oasis.

44:01Distracting the Vanity Project from getting that chair.

44:04And it leads to the pounce.

44:07And then in the end, Keanu Carver, his eyes on the prize.

44:11One, two, three.

44:12He takes out Bryce Donovan.

44:14It was a huge win for Keanu, who took out the heavy of the VP.

44:18And if you're looking, you can see where his eyes are headed.

44:22They are straight on the evolved champion, Jackson Drake.

44:25It was a great night.

44:26We'll see you next week right here on WWE Evolved on Tubi.

44:32You is a big deal.

44:37You have to see each other.

44:38If you have a chance.
