00:00Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the WWE Women's Champion, Tiffany Stratton!
00:23Tiffy time and what a reception in the brutal matches she's had to hold on to gold.
00:29It's not getting any easier.
00:30The women's champ will announce her opponent for Evolution, that's coming up next.
00:34What time is it?
00:46Big news announced.
00:48Drew McIntyre, he returned tonight, had harsh words for Randy Orton dealing with Cody Rhodes.
00:53And RKO later, and now we have this, Wade, Saturday Night's Fan Effect.
00:58Does not get much bigger.
01:00McIntyre, Randy Orton, bad blood between these two and they face off at Saturday Night's Main Event.
01:09That's a big weekend in Atlanta.
01:15Mention that road that Tiffany's been on from a WrestleMania war with Charlotte and now coming off the last woman standing match against Nia Jax.
01:33What time is it?
01:42Since becoming champion, I have realized that there has been a target on my back and Nia Jax's revenge was not gonna stop me from becoming the last woman standing.
01:57But now my sights are set on SummerSlam where I will defend my title against the queen of the ring, Jade Cargill.
02:10And just like I am ready to beat Jade at SummerSlam, I am also ready to defend my title at Evolution.
02:20Eoskai had the opportunity of choosing who she wanted as her opponent and tonight I will have the same opportunity of choosing who I would like to face at...
02:32Eoskai is coming.
02:52Eoskai is coming.
02:54Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the 2025 Queen of the Ring, Jay Target!
03:19And what Jay did last Saturday against Asuka was special.
03:27Showed greatness, skill, unparalleled strength, catching a mid-air Empress Impact and turning it into Jaden Wade.
03:33We've got ourselves an Ice Queen, Joe Tess, the Ice Queen of the Ring.
03:40And boy, oh boy, doesn't Jay Target look resplendent?
03:45I bow to thee.
03:47Newly crowned and deserving of it all, Jade Cargill.
03:55Okay Tiffany, I see you out there looking like a champion beating Nia.
04:01Respect, respect.
04:09But you was barely standing as I was crowning myself being the next Queen of the Ring against one of the best, Asuka.
04:15Now tonight you have a choice to make, choose wrong and you won't be at SummerSlam.
04:29But to be honest, it don't matter who I face, I'm coming out with that title always.
04:49Jade, I'm actually so happy you're here.
04:55I have a surprise for everybody.
04:58Yes!
05:00Yes!
05:01Yes, dude!
05:02Stratisfaction guaranteed!
05:04It's the Hall of Famer herself!
05:06And my biochemistry is suddenly having a 4th of July fireworks party of its own, Joe Tess!
05:20I'm just gonna push back just a few feet from you right now.
05:26Just a safe range.
05:27I feel young and virile once again!
05:31And every cell in my body wants to say,
05:34Thank you Trish!
05:36When you're scam, what's going on!
05:40And that's how you get this guy!
05:41And that's how you get this guy!
05:43We're getting this guy!
05:44And we're getting this guy!
05:45And we're getting this guy!
05:47And we're getting this guy!
05:48By the way Wade.
05:51I think, I think I'm gonna control the next thing now, Joe.
05:53It was the initial shock!
05:56Initial excitement!
05:57Trishy, I invited you here today because we teamed up together at Elimination Chamber,
06:09and I thought to myself, what would Evolution be without some stratus-faction?
06:16So I would like to offer you the opportunity to face me at Evolution for
06:24the WWE Women's Championship.
06:28Okay,
06:32Beth, you wanna choose Trish?
06:34That's fine.
06:35Like I said, it doesn't matter if it's you or a legend at SummerSlam.
06:42Wow, I did not expect that.
06:48Thank you, Tiff.
06:50I gotta say, Evolution holds a very special place in my heart.
06:58It represents everything we fought for back in the day.
07:01We used to have to fight for one single woman's match on a card.
07:07And now at Evolution, that's right.
07:12We're gonna have an entire card of incredibly talented women.
07:20I've always said that careers are made of moments.
07:31And Tiff, you gave me one of my most special moments by allowing me to wrestle live in front
07:36of my kids.
07:38They got to see me in the ring.
07:41But you know what?
07:43My kids have never seen me be a champion in the ring.
07:51I mean, it does have a pretty nice ring to it, eight time champion.
07:56I would just like to make one thing clear.
08:05This isn't gonna be easy.
08:07It's not the Attitude Era anymore.
08:13That's fine.
08:14No, no, no, hey, hey, that's good.
08:16I want that fight.
08:17I want that fight.
08:18Because I've been known to evolve, Tiff.
08:21Good.
08:21So whether it's you at Evolution or you at SummerSlam, you both are gonna realize that
