***************
It’s another Saturday night, my friends and just like in High School, I’m home watching wrestling! There’s a bevy of matches on the card tonight that have hu–, hav big—, well, they have stakes! And maybe even implications! So without further ado, let us commence with the Event that is Main on the Night of Saturday!
Six Woman Tag Team Match: Alexa Bliss, Charlotte Flair & Rhea Ripley vs. B-Fab, Jade Cargill & Michin
To start things off it’s a six-way dance featuring WWE Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley, former Women’s Tag Champs Bliss & Flair and also B-Fab, Michin and Jade Cargill are there. Ripley is looking for the ever-elusive “momentum” leading into her match with Cargill in Italy.
Ripley and B-Fab kicked things off with B-Fab missing a pump kick and eating a clothesline. Bliss tagged in and tood own B-fab with a headscissor. Michin tagged in, but Bliss took her out with a really stiff looking knee to the nose.
Flair tagged in and and rolled Michin around the ring in a scissor lock. Flair took her out with a clothesine and B-Fab came in to take a crossbody from Bliss. Cargill dragged Bliss to the outside and kicked her to death to try and fire up her team.
Cargill took Flair down and tagged in Michin. Flair found herself isloated in her opponent’s cornerm taking offence from all three who tagged in and out around her. Michin suplexed Flair and went for a cover, but she kicked out at two.
Flair cleared the corner and created some space, but Michin got the better of her with a headscissor from the top turnbuckle. Michin went to finish her off, but Flair countered. B-Fab tagged in and cut her off from tagging Ripley.
They both popped up and delivered pump kicks at the same time, leaving both on the canvas. Flair finally got a tag to Ripley just as Michin tagged in. Ripley worked her over with clotheslines and slams, building up to a Rip Tide.
Ripley hit a missile dropkick and sent Michin sprawling. Just as she set up Rip Tide, Cargill came in and caused a distraction. Michin tried a hurricanrana, but Ripley countered it. Michin spiked Ripley for a tweo count, but Ripley was able to tag in Bliss.
Bliss hit a tornado DDT for a two count and then ate a chinbreaker. Michin tagged in B-Fab who squirmed out of Sister Abigail and hit a DDT on Bliss. Michin tagged back in and they went for a double move, but Bliss countered it into a double DDT and tagged Flair who flew in with a crossbody.
Michin recovered and hit Flair with a Styles Clash, but Ripley broke up the pin. Cargill came in and started spamming superkicks, taking out everyone until Flair caught her with a boot.
Cargill tagged in and so did Ripley, giving the crowd a preview of their faceoff in Italy. They traded blows with Ripley coming out on top with a Rip Tide. She stacked Cargill up but Michin broke up the pin. Flair took out B-Fab and played a little “will they / won’t they” with Ripley before they hit double slams on B-Fab and Michin.
Cargill wiped everyone out and hit a Jaded slam on Ripley to pin the WWE Women’s Champion and deny her that oh so sweet momentum.
Match Result: B-Fab, Jade Cargill & Michin defeated Alexa Bliss, Charlotte Flair & Rhea Ripley
-Backstage, Ethan Page was interviewed about his match against Penta tonight for the Intercontinental Championship. Page said that it was the IC Title’s biggest night ever because when he wins it, the spotlight will be on them both.
Non-Title Match: Women’s Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch vs. Sol Ruca
Did I hear ‘California Surfer?’
I must have because Sol Ruca is here! She doesn’t like Becky Lynch (many people are saying this) and wants to fight her about it. Lynch, the current Women’s Intercontinental Champion, doesn’t think Ruca is ready for her.
Or Auska. Man, I miss Auska.
Anyway, Ruca was interviewed before her entrance and made several references to snatching things because that’s her finishing move, you see.
Before the bell, Lynch threw the IC title belt at Ruca and yelled at the “fast counting” ref. Eventually the bell rang and Ruca hit a spinning face slam and springboard crossbody on Lynch. Ruca stayed in control, so Lynch left the ring to regroup.
Ruca hit her with a leap from the apron (the surfiest part of the ring!) and thew Lynch back into the ring. Lynch tried to get the upper hand, but Ruca countered everything she threw at her. Ruca went for a Sol Snatcher off the top, but Lynch pulled the ref into the way. The ref immediately called for the DQ.
Match Result: Sol Ruca defeated Becky Lynch via DQ
After the match, Lynch ambushed Ruca and hit her with the belt. Then she hit a trio of Manhandle Slams to put Ruca out. The crowd was… not pleased. Micheal Cole was “disgusted” as this was “unbecoming” of the Intercontinental Champion.
Then everything was better as Penta cut a promo about how Ethan Page only fights for ego, but Penta fights for his people. I like Penta.
-Back from break, Becky Lynch was informed by Nick Aldis that as a result of her actions, she will have to face Sol Ruca at Clash In Italy for the Intercontinental Title.
Then, Lash Legend and Nia Jax were interviewed about how they are better than Paige and Brie. However, the video feed was hooped and all we saw on youtube was a green bar.
They thankfully managed to correct this before:
WWE Intercontinental Title Match: Penta (c) vs. Ethan Page
You know WWEKO is completely behind Penta because he got in-ring fireworks while they barely said Page’s name during his entrance. Then the commentary team pointed that very thing out.
Hamilton’s own Ethan Page started off falling victim to a waistlock. He reversed it and Penta then reversed that and kicked him in the gut. Page roared back with some right hands, knocking Penta into the corner.
Penta went for a spingboard, but Page caught him in midair with a dropkick. Penta came back with an arm drag that sent Page out of the ring. Penta followed and kicked Page in the face. He charged him, but Page back body dropped Penta onto the announce table.
Page told the ref to stop the count out (because he can do that I guess) and sent Penta into the ringpost face first. Back in the ring, he dropped a few elbows and earned a couple of two counts.
Penta raged back, sending Page to the outside and diving after him. Both men seemed to take the brunt of the dive, but Penta got to his feet first and threw Page back into the ring. Page hit a superkick but Penta hit a spingboard DDT for a two count.
Page blocked a Penta driver and scoop slammed Penta for a two count. Penta came back with a backstabber for a two count of his own. They then traded chops in the middle of the ring, moving into trading superkicks until both men went down.
Page hit a Confidence Breaker out of nowhere, but still only a two count. Penta countered and Egoplex with a Penta Driver, but again, only two. Penta went for a Mexican Destroyer but Page insterd a high knee instead.
They climbed to the top of the ringpost and Page landed an Avalanche Slam but somehow Penta kicked out. A frustrated Page resorted to punching and uncovered a turnbucke. He got caught, so he exposed another one.
Penta ran at him, and Page sent him chest first into the steel. Penta came back off of that with a Mexican Destroyer and pinned Page to retain the Intercontinental Title.
Match Result: Penta defeated Ethan Page
-Backstage (sigh) “Scream Mode” was interviewed. Brie said that no one should write them off because they can win tonight.
WWE Women’s Tag Team Title Match: Brie Bella & Paige (c) vs. The Irresistible Forces (Lash Legend & Nia Jax)
I do love that tonight’s show features back-to-back Paige/Page matches.
Jax and Lash tried to jump Bella and Paige off the bell, but Scream Mode was able to fend them off and Bella went up top to take out Jax. Brie tried it again, but Jax caught her in a Samoan Drop. Lash tagged in and whiffed on a pump kick, allowing Brie to tag in Paige.
Jax caused a bit of a distraction and Lash was able to hit Paige with a big boot. Lash hit a splash, but Paige kicked out of the cover at two. Jax tagged back in and rubbed her butt on Paige’s neck against the ropes.
Jax chopped Paige and then went for a choke while Brie paced on the apron. Lash tagged in and whipped Paige into the corner. She hit her with a clothesline and got a two count out of it. Lash cut off Paige’s attempts to tag Brie and put her in a full nelson.
Lash took a cue from Jax and continued working Paige’s neck. Paige pulled down the top rope and Lash flew over it, but for some reason Paige didn’t go for a tag. Jax came in, but Paige side stepped her and she crashed into the corner. Paige got the tag to Brie who delivered some Yes Kicks to Jax.
Jax overpowered Brie and tagged her with a pop up head butt followed by a samoan drop. Lash tagged in and hit a splash from the top but did not got for a pin. Jax dropped a leg from the second rope, but Brie kicked out at two.
Paige took a tag and leapt from the top rope onto Jax in a sunset flip. Brie helped her out and Paige pinned Jax to retain the titles.
Match Result: Brie Bella & Paige defeated The Irresistible Forces
Backstage, The Vision was shown warming up as Paul Heyman cut a promo about how the Street Profits will lose tonight. Logan Paul then started talking and I started blacking out, but I am pretty sure that he said they will retain the titles.
WWE World Tag Team Title Match: The Vision (Austin Theory & Logan Paul) (c) vs. The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford)
Fun Fact: This is the first time since 1992 that the Tag Titles have been up for grabs on Saturday Night’s Main Event.
Ford and Theory stalked each other to kick things off while Dawkins danced and Paul worked the crowd. There was about nine minutes left in the show, so it was strange how they seemed to be wasting them mugging for the audience.
Finally, Theory and Ford started wrestling with Theory sending Ford to the mat. They locked up and Theory hit a shoulder block. Paul tagged in and the slow pace continued with a test of strength lock up. Paul then hit his own shoulder block. For popped up from that one and flipped across the ring to lure Paul in for some armdrags and dropkicks.
Theory tried to help but ate a dropkick too. Dawkins tagged in and they double teamed Paul. They clotheslined Theory and Paul off the apron, causing them to regroup with Heyman. They decided to leave at that point, but the Profits chased them up the ramp.
They pulled then back to the ring and Dawkins took out Paul in the corner. He went for a cover, but only got a two count. Theory caused a distraction and Paul hit Dawkins with an uppercut. Theory tagged in and Paul used him as a step for a splash.
Theory stomped Dawkins’ hand and then tagged in Paul. They hit a double shoulder block and posed. Paul grabbed a headlock on Dawkins. Dawkins elbowed his way out of it, but couldn’t get the tag to Ford. Paul clotheslined him and tagged in Theory.
Paul got sent through the ropes and pulled Ford off the apron. In the ring Theory stomped Dawkins and then handed things over to Paul. Paul did another splash but Dawkins moved and hit a neckbreaker. Ford stomped back up to the apron and got a tag, taking out Theory from the top rope. He laid out Paul and then powerslamed Theory.
Paul grabbed a blind tag and hit a lariat for a two count. Theory tagged back in and they tried a double team but Ford caught a blind tag from Dawkins and they double teamed Paul out of the ring. Dawkins put Theory up on his shoulders and they doomsday deviced him but Theory kicked out at two.
The Profits sent Theory and Paul to the outside and Ford flew onto them. Bron Breakker then flew down to help, but Dawkins sent him flying into the announce table. Ford pinned Theory in the ring but Heyman put his foot on the roped to break the pin.
Ford stalked Heyman outside the ring and Paul belted him with the brass nux. He threw him back into the ring and Theory pinned him to retain the titles.
Match Result: The Vision defeated The Street Profits
After the match, Breakker speared Dawkins and Ford. Then Paul and Theory got back in the ring and posed with him.
