Short filmTranscript
00:00Last week, Keanu Carver successfully defeated Brooks Jensen to become the number one contender
00:14to Jackson Drake's Evolve Championship. Unfortunately, due to the attack by Bryce
00:20Donovan after the match, Keanu suffered some broken bones in his left hand
00:23and is now medically unable to compete at Succession. However, by the end of the night, I will find a suitable replacement
00:32and Jackson Drake will defend his Evolve Men's Championship next week at Succession.
00:53Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to WWE Evolve on Tubi. Peter Rosenberg, Robert Stone. We got three great facts up here tonight.
01:12Evolve fame, how are you feeling tonight, baby?
01:14Oh, history will be made next week, y'all, when Evolve has its very first special, and we're calling it Succession, y'all.
01:28For the first time, both championships will be on the line and on the same show, y'all. How do you feel about that, baby?
01:34Yeah.
01:34I'm about to bring out two women who are the epitome of the word Evolve, and I can't wait to see them go head-to-head for the championship next week, y'all.
01:45Can we bring them out?
01:48Let's bring out our challenger, Kendall Gray!
01:54Here she is, the resident arm breaker, KG, Kendall Gray, the truth.
02:01Kendall Gray with the opportunity of a lifetime, Robert Stone.
02:05Yeah, the question is, will next week, after her match, she be standing there with the Evolve Women's Championship around her waist?
02:15Will it happen? I mean, she's the boss lady, she's the ice woman.
02:19I guess we're just gonna have to wait and see.
02:21Seven days away, baby!
02:22Kendall Gray looking all business as we start things off on Evolve.
02:28Man, Kendall Gray, Callie Armstrong, two of the best we've had.
02:37KG, ready to go.
02:43And this is a face-to-face, so we gotta bring out our champion, right?
02:47Callie Armstrong, where you at?
02:51And now, two strong, Callie Armstrong.
02:55She has been doing it since the second thing started on Evolve, Robert Stone.
03:00What can you say about our champion?
03:01I can say that next Wednesday will be her fourth Evolve Women's title defense, and she is ready for it.
03:09Look at her.
03:09You can just feel it.
03:10You can see it in her eyes.
03:12You are not gonna get a more confident superstar, a more confident champion than two strong Armstrong.
03:18Callie is here, and they are about to go face-to-face right now.
03:22Count me among those who have felt that we have been on a collision course for these two since things first started.
03:30Kendall Gray has felt the title was hers, and now, seven days from today, she will get her chance at the Women's Evolve Championship.
03:39What's up, champ?
03:42What's up, champ?
03:45All right.
03:46All right, Kendall, you look like you're about to jump out of your skin, homie.
03:49So what do you got to say right now?
03:52I've got a lot to say.
03:55You think you're so badass, huh, Callie?
03:57What you did to my friend Carly last week.
04:00You know, physically, it was impressive.
04:04But mentally, you showed me something different.
04:06You know, you usually come out here feeling confident, hyped up, letting your action speak for itself.
04:14But last week, you drew a line.
04:16And I am tired of seeing you come in here feeling so confident.
04:22And instead, Callie, instead of going into succession feeling confident,
04:27I am going to break you and take that championship from you.
04:31All right, all right, all right.
04:32Hey, Kendall, whatever you got to do to tell yourself, to make yourself feel better, go ahead.
04:41As long as you bring your A-game to succession, knock yourself out.
04:46I beat down your best friend because I could.
04:50Carly's a nice girl.
04:51She's full of sunshine and bubbles.
04:53But ain't no sunshine and bubbles belong in a ring with a difference maker.
04:58At the end of the day, I taught your best friend something that you've always known deep down inside.
05:04That no matter how good y'all might be, you're just not as good as Callie Armstrong.
05:09Look, Callie, what you're saying is nothing that I haven't heard before.
05:19I've been doubting my whole life.
05:21I was the only female on my high school men's wrestling team.
05:24I was told that girls shouldn't wrestle, that I'm not strong enough, I'm too small, too weak.
05:30I've heard it all, and I'm still here fighting.
05:33And now you're looking at a three-time undefeated national champion with a 61-0 perfect record,
05:41qualified for the 2020 Olympic trials at the age of 19.
05:46And now I'm going to be the girl to tap out two-strong Armstrong.
05:53What you want to say to that, champ?
06:01Oh, we talking resumes.
06:04Well, if that's the case, I'm a three-time NCAA All-American at the University of Southern California.
06:11I'm a world record holder in a sprint medley relay.
06:16Or what?
06:16We talking of all resumes?
06:19If that's the case, you can't compare.
06:21I'm undefeated in singles actions.
06:24Oh, what, what?
06:25We talking about just regular life?
06:28Once again, Kendall, you can't compare.
06:32I come from the struggle.
06:33This ain't nothing new to me.
06:35I'm from Inglewood, California, the city of champions.
06:39I'm one of eight children.
06:42I was born with drugs in my system.
06:44I almost didn't make it.
06:45But I did, because I'm a winner, and that's what winners do.
06:48I'm going into succession as a winner, and I'm coming out as a winner.
06:53The last words you're going to hear is, and still, your evolved women's champion, Hallie Armstrong.
07:01May the best woman win.
07:09Shake hands.
07:10Come on.
07:11I intend to.
07:13Not until you get caught in my arm bar.
07:15Yo, save it for the ring.
07:16Save it for the ring.
07:18Make some noise, y'all.
07:19Kendall Gray.
07:20Kelly Armstrong.
07:20Tensions rising between the champ, Callie Armstrong, and the gritty Kendall Gray.
07:34There are going to be absolute fireworks next week, Robert Stone, when these two get together for the Evolve Women's Championship.
07:43Yes, strong final words between the arm breaker and the difference maker.
07:48Time will tell.
07:49It's all next Wednesday.
07:51Absolutely going to be a moment you do not want to miss here on Tubi.
07:56But speaking of which, we've got action tonight.
08:00The Sleepy Psycho is taking on Nikita Lyons.
08:04Wendy Chu, Nikita Lyons, tonight on Evolve.
08:07And up next, the man in mid-condition, no competition.
08:12It's Gal going up against the Singaporean warrior, Dante Chen.
08:16It's next on Evolve.
08:48Tate Wilder, getting your first victory over Idris Inoffe must have felt pretty good.
08:57Definitely did, Kelly.
08:58Behind all that arrogance, Idris, one heck of an athlete.
09:03But I learned from my mistakes, I finally got my hand raised and prove I have what it takes to make it on Evolve and in WWE.
09:10Now, Kelly, this might sound crazy, but Succession is next week.
09:15Everyone's looking for a spot on the show, and I want to put my name in that hat.
09:19I know I only have one win, but something clicked that night.
09:22Something just felt different.
09:23The flame was lit, and I was ready.
09:25Come on.
09:28You want to go?
09:30Come on.
09:31Come on.
09:31Brooks, stop.
09:32Come on.
09:33Come on.
09:34This is absurd, Robert.
09:36Brooks Jensen attacks Tate from behind, and now he's raining down a barrage of punches on a defenseless Tate Wilder.
09:43What the hell has gotten into Brooks Jensen?
09:44The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
09:52Introducing first, from Mount Olympus, the real-life action figure, Idris, Gal!
10:00Peter, I feel bad for Idscal, because he and Jamar Hampton, they were having a thing going, and now Jamar, he's got his cracked hip bone, because he was trying to keep up with Idscal.
10:10And now Idscal, he's feeling a little down.
10:11However, I will say that Big Daddy Red, the real-life action figure, is still looking tan-jack and ready to attack.
10:19What's going on with the haircut?
10:20What do you mean the haircut?
10:22Very hot.
10:23It's a 10 on the stud-o-meter!
10:24I hate this stud-o-meter.
10:29You saw my score, right?
10:31I got a 3.
10:33It's a height!
10:37And his opponent, from Singapore, weighing in at 227 pounds, Dante Chen!
10:47Well, Dante Chen does not back away from a challenge.
10:51He tried to show love to Idscal last week, sympathizing, empathizing with the situation he's in.
10:58And for his kindness, he got treated like a complete jerk by Idscal.
11:03And Dante said, you know what?
11:04I'll see you in the ring.
11:05I love the moxie of Dante Chen.
11:07You know what the D in Dante stands for?
11:10D-d-d-d-d-d-dummy, Peter!
11:12That's what it stands for.
11:13He's a dummy.
11:14He's a ferocious dummy for trying to stick his nose in business that's not his.
11:19Why is he talking to Idscal?
11:20And why are you talking like Idscal?
11:22I hate when he does that.
11:24I hate when he does that and the people do it with him.
11:26Dante Chen has just really been getting on my nerves lately.
11:29I'm sorry.
11:30Well, you are going to see two great athletes here at Evolve with two very different styles.
11:36The aggressive, the hardworking, the brave.
11:41I'd even say that.
11:43Where are you going with this?
11:44Dante Chen.
11:45And you're saying Idscal doesn't have all those same qualities?
11:48I was going to name some other qualities.
11:50Okay, let's hear.
11:51Tan.
11:52Jacked.
11:53Yeah.
11:53Ready to attack.
11:54Those are the most important ones.
11:55But also completely obnoxious.
11:58Delusional about his own skill level at times.
12:01And also just a complete self-centered jerk.
12:04Come on.
12:05You know what qualities Dante Chen has?
12:06We pale him ready to pale.
12:08I mean, look at the difference in their skin tones.
12:11Look at Idscal's tan.
12:13Well, that's because he never leaves the tanning booth.
12:15I'm going to go on a limb here and I'm going to say, DC, Dante Chen might be lower on the
12:20stun-o-meter than even you.
12:21Look at the push-ups, bro.
12:23Two things at once.
12:24Killing two birds with one stone.
12:25So if Dante Chen used as much spray tan as Idscal, you'd have more respect for him.
12:30I mean, you'd see his abs more.
12:32This is a cosmetic industry.
12:34There's Idscal doing his famous push-ups on top of his opponent.
12:39Again, back to the obnoxious style and demeanor of Idscal, who made me a three on the stud-o-meter.
12:46I didn't even ask to be on the stud-o-meter.
12:48You don't deserve to be on the stud-o-meter.
12:50Did you have a score yet?
12:52Pump, do you even have to ask him a 10 out of 10?
12:54Duh, dummy.
12:57You guys are really birds of a feather as Idscal does show the strength there.
13:02Catching Dante Chen.
13:04Look at that.
13:04And now, look, squatting Dante Chen, who's got to weigh, what, 220?
13:09Come on, man.
13:09Let's see what I'm doing wrestling off.
13:11I'm trying to get a pump right now, Dante.
13:13Check out those quads.
13:14Oh, yeah.
13:15See, look, Dante's annoyed with him.
13:17Yeah, I'd be annoyed, too.
13:19Now, let's see if Idscal could back up all the talk.
13:26The crowd telling Idscal he's not pumped, which is only going to piss him off.
13:33Wait, hold on.
13:36Dante's really not going to try and have a co-found with Idscal.
13:38It looks like he wanted to.
13:41You know how many bodybuilding shows Idscal's want in the Northeast?
13:45Look at Dante Chen, a little bit smarter than you thought.
13:48He was setting up Idscal all along and connects with the right hand.
13:53Oh, there's the flex on top of it.
13:56Not too shabby.
13:57Are we here to flex or wrestle?
13:58He's not even taking the math seriously.
14:00Into a drop kick.
14:03Dante Chen showing the power, showing the strength, and having some fun while he's doing it.
14:08And our fans here at the Performance Center love what they see from Dante Chen.
14:12Look at the ring awareness.
14:14Knowing to get a breather as Dante seemed to be going for the gentle touch.
14:20Sucked him right in.
14:21Dante Chen has been using that gentle touch and putting some wins together, looking to get himself into title contention.
14:27Back and forth on the apron here.
14:32Dante bringing him back in the ring.
14:33I mean, hey, that is where you can beat someone.
14:35Now, I'm not going to ask you what Idscal's record has been in Evolve so far.
14:39Can we just focus on this match right now?
14:42The high-flying Chen connecting again to Idscal, who's not talking as much right now.
14:47He's reeling.
14:48What he's doing is showing his power.
14:54Look at the strength.
14:55Oh, flex line.
14:58Dante Chen in some trouble, kicks out at two.
15:01At a pretty ferocious pace, Donnie.
15:07Idscal, when he finally stops talking and starts wrestling, has some talent.
15:12It's a unique style.
15:14How would you describe what Idscal does in the ring, Stone?
15:18I mean, rough, tough, and rugged.
15:21I mean, did you see that big boot to Dante's face?
15:23He about took his head off.
15:27Is there anything you can say about Idscal that's not done in some sort of weird, stupid saying?
15:32I don't think anything's weird what I'm saying.
15:34See, that's your opinion.
15:36Well, there he is again, flexing on the top rope, spending too much time,
15:40and instead, now, finds himself in trouble.
15:44Again, too much time showboating.
15:46Here's a pin, and could that be enough for Dante Chen?
15:49Khao kicks out.
15:50This is an NXT talent, a Performance Center talent, straight up versus a WWE ID talent.
15:56You only get that kind of action here on Evolve.
15:59What a way to kick things off one week out from succession.
16:02Of course, Chen going back to work on Idscal, who has really not found his way yet in this match.
16:16And Dante Chen in control.
16:20Kick to the face, sends Khao to the outside.
16:23And Dante Chen's going to fly.
16:29Dante Chen with a d-d-d-d-dive.
16:33I don't like that.
16:35What we saw here, Dante doesn't usually do this, but suicide dive through the middle and top rope.
16:40Very effective springboard.
16:44Didn't work this time.
16:46Out of the ways, it's Gal.
16:48European uppercut and another one.
16:51Again, the style of Gal.
16:54Not only does he call himself the real-life action figure, he sort of wrestles like an action figure in a lot of ways.
17:00Is there a problem here?
17:02It's just a bit, it's a bit rigid.
17:04It's Gal may not get up from that.
17:12Dante Chen feeling it.
17:14Oh, man.
17:15And he's bringing the fans on a journey with him.
17:17Could this be it?
17:18Chen's will touch.
17:21That's going to be it for the real-life action figure.
17:26Here is your winner, Dante Chen.
17:31I'm sorry, what were you saying before the match, Stone?
17:34Because it seems like Itzgal came up short.
17:38Well, you go back here and you see Itzgal showing his power, throwing Dante and then hitting him with the flex line.
17:44And then, of course, Dante, I got him mid, a beautiful spinning powerbomb on Gal.
17:48And then, unfortunately, finished him off with a gentle touch.
17:53Is Dante Chen in title contention as he keeps racking up wins like this?
18:00Well, I'll tell you what Itzgal might be saying after this match, Stone.
18:03D-d-d-d-d-d-d-damm!
18:05Oh, you were waiting for that one this whole match, weren't you, Peter?
18:09Dante Chen, a big win for a guy who needed it.
18:13Congratulations in order to Dante Chen.
18:16Let's send things backstage to Chewy Martinez.
18:19I'm here with Hi-Rise.
18:21Gentlemen, thank you so much for your time.
18:23We've got Aaron Rourke and Marcus Mathers coming up in this tag team match.
18:27Give me your thoughts.
18:28How are you feeling?
18:28Chewy, I feel like we're about to pop out on the plot pressure.
18:31And Chewy, evolve what the Hi-Rise is really about.
18:33We're going to take all that advice that Wes gave us and show them exactly why we ain't
18:37the ones to be stashed on the sidelines.
18:39Chewy, we are not dumb.
18:40We've got the greatest former North American champion leading us and advising us.
18:45We know what's expected of us.
18:47And tonight, we're going to prove a point to Marcus Mathers and Aaron Rourke.
18:51Come on, now let them know.
18:53Better pop out.
18:54Let's go.
18:54Brick by brick.
18:55Yeah.
18:55My name is John Cena.
19:02I'm a kid who grew up in a small town in West Newberry.
19:04The time is done.
19:05And I'm living the dream.
19:07The champ is here.
19:10My time is there.
19:14My time is there.
19:17You can't see me.
19:20My time is there.
19:25You're saying something earlier.
19:31Yeah.
19:31Yeah.
19:32Listen, boys.
19:32You have the dogs on me.
19:33I think everything's been just going so swimmingly lately.
19:36That's a good word.
19:37So I think I want to personally gift each of you a statue in my likeness.
19:42Wow.
19:43So you can look at my chisel jawline whenever you want.
19:45You deserve it.
19:46You deserve it.
19:46Look, guys, guys.
19:47All right, guys, guys.
19:48Let's get serious for a second.
19:49Can we please get serious for just one second?
19:51All right.
19:51What does she keep making our boy wait for?
19:53Honestly.
19:54Okay.
19:54Succession is supposed to be the Vanity Project's big crowning moment.
19:58And I don't know.
19:58Maybe it's just me.
19:59It just feels like they're messing with us and messing with the champ.
20:01Yeah.
20:01Who the hell is she going to pick?
20:03It's not going to be Crash Out King Keanu.
20:06That's for sure.
20:07You think she gives it to the Tom Moore pill bill at Brooks?
20:11That's funny, right?
20:12What they said?
20:12All right, guys, guys.
20:13Settle down.
20:14We already know Stevie's going to wait until the very last minute.
20:17For sure.
20:18But I think we should give credit where credit's due.
20:22Bryce over here took out Keanu.
20:24The problem solver actually solved a problem for once.
20:28I'm sure the whole locker room wants a shot at you.
20:32There's not a single man in that locker room who can take me out.
20:35They know it, and we know it.
20:38Hey, boys.
20:39These up.
20:40All right.
20:42See how this plays out, though.
20:43Bro, you actually don't want a statue of me?
20:45I mean, I just don't know what I would do with you.
20:47Uh, it's a hassle.
20:48You know me, sir.
20:48Still not sure about how things are going for the Vanity Collagen, Rob.
20:59Just not sure.
20:59The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for one fall.
21:06Introducing first, the team of Marcus Mathers and Aaron Roar.
21:12Well, what a question it's going to be to find out who is going to go up against Jackson
21:17during that succession.
21:18I mean, if it's not Keanu Carver, who is going to fill that spot?
21:22Really, really great question.
21:24Of course, we're forced to answer that question because of the tactics of Vanity Project,
21:29specifically Bryce Donovan, last week taking out Keanu Carver after his big win over Brooks
21:34Jensen, but now Marcus Mathers and Aaron Roar in desperate need of a win here at Tag Action.
21:40They sure are.
21:41AIP, anything is possible is what they say.
21:43They're lively, dynamic, electric.
21:46Their aerial artistry is amazing, but they've got to get their first victory.
21:50Well, they're going to have their hands full tonight.
21:54I can guarantee you that.
21:55Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
22:04And their opponents, accompanied by Wesley, representing the high rise,
22:13the team of Tyreek Igwe and Tyson DuPont.
22:19Tyreek Igwe, Tyson DuPont, high rise, alongside Wesley, of course,
22:25the mastermind behind the whole thing.
22:28What can you say about these behemoths, Rob?
22:30Well, I can say that they are back, and they are ready for this opportunity,
22:35along with their leader, if you will.
22:38You called him a mastermind.
22:39I agree.
22:40Wesley, former North American champion in NXT for 269 days,
22:46a former NXT Tag Team champion, twice a 14-year vet.
22:50Think about the tree of knowledge he is for high rise.
22:53For these two guys, Tyson and Tyreek, and what he is teaching them
22:57about tag team wrestling, and all of wrestling in general.
23:01And they are going to bring that in this match.
23:04Straight up PC talent, NXT talent, versus WWE ID talent
23:09that you only get on EVOL.
23:11I'll say it every match if I have to.
23:12Well, you're doing a great job of it.
23:14Tyreek now in the ring to start things off for high rise.
23:19And you can see Tyreek wearing those signature boots,
23:24which we know are super heavy.
23:25Imagine getting kicked by a pair of those boots.
23:28That's animal.
23:29Well, he wore those boots, stomping down the mean streets of New York City.
23:34Well, you know what they're all about.
23:36They're all about getting the issue.
23:38Oh, come on.
23:39I don't think that was a smart move by Aaron Roy.
23:41See, that's not how you want to play around with Tyreek.
23:44I don't know.
23:44Oh, see, another booty smack.
23:46I can't imagine Tyreek is feeling that.
23:49No, is he out of his mind?
23:52But there's the athleticism.
23:53Rourke does so many things.
23:54Gets in your head, but can also get up
23:56and do a lot of different things aerially in the ring.
24:00Well, they're tag team wrestling together.
24:01Their tag team offense, no doubt,
24:04is off the charts with moves like that.
24:07And as you see right there, one of our interesting factoids,
24:11they had a show together in Florida,
24:13and Rourke and Mathers just gained a mutual respect.
24:16And here we go, Mathers.
24:17Trying to score a pin early, and a tag team was born.
24:21Yeah, well, they have been teaming together all over the country,
24:24and even at Wrestling Open,
24:25both with the same hopes and dreams of moving on to NXT,
24:28then Raw and SmackDown.
24:30No doubt about it, the WWE ID program changed these guys' lives,
24:34and they're going to utilize it to their full advantage.
24:38Well, you got to be careful.
24:40You got to be careful if you're Marcus Mathers,
24:42and you're in there with someone with that kind of strength,
24:45like Tyreek Igwe.
24:46Well, a tag made there.
24:47I don't know if the finest Mathers realizes it.
24:52Good tag team work there by DuPont and Igwe.
24:55And that's that tag team offense
24:56that you know Wesley has been teaching them.
24:59It's a great point.
25:01The veteran leadership of Wesley
25:03teaching these two young men
25:06how to cohesively operate as a tag team.
25:11Power, strength, agility.
25:13I mean, they're 535 pounds combined, Peter.
25:17You know what?
25:18These guys, their squat and deadlift numbers
25:20are off the charts in the performance center.
25:23I mean, Tyson's nickname is The Brick.
25:26You don't just get called that for no reason.
25:28There is a lot of good reason.
25:30Both of these guys are just unbelievable physical specimens.
25:34Forget about it.
25:35How are you getting up from that if you're Marcus Mathers?
25:37Look at him.
25:39I'm a hot pair of water.
25:41I will say the one thing
25:42that High Rise should be doing right now
25:44is going for a pinfall.
25:46I understand that they're toying with him.
25:48It's their return.
25:49They want to get some face time.
25:51But you need to win this match.
25:52And they are not going for pinfall
25:54in times when I think that they should have.
25:56Now they are.
25:57Yeah, it may be a bit late, though.
25:58Because it gave Mathers a second to find himself.
26:01To your point, maybe earlier would have been the move.
26:05High Rise, one of the most exciting tag teams here on Evolve.
26:10Haven't seen them in a bit.
26:11But every time they show up, their presence is felt.
26:16I couldn't agree with you more.
26:18As Marcus Mathers, the finest from Philly,
26:20second-generation wrestler is trying to mount some offense.
26:24Watch out!
26:25He just got mounted in the corner.
26:29Man.
26:30DuPont and Iguay, so much power.
26:33Sometimes it's like they're just showing off.
26:36There's just so much natural strength.
26:38Look at this.
26:39Well, that's what I mean.
26:40This isn't about showing off.
26:41It's about winning matches.
26:44Mathers desperate to find Aaron Wark
26:46and get the hell out of Dodge.
26:50We'll be in Perth this weekend for Crown Jewel.
26:52I bet Marcus Mathers wishes he was in Australia right now.
26:57Anywhere but stuck in the center of the ring with that monster.
27:01Yeah, the high-rise walk the talk.
27:04They back up their words with actions.
27:06And, I mean, it's matches like this that make me say,
27:08when is Stevie Turner maybe going to introduce some Evolve Tag Team championships?
27:13Tag Team division has been off the charts.
27:15You know, there's been a lot of buzz about that.
27:17A lot of teams want to be in a conversation.
27:20Tag is made!
27:21Here comes Wark.
27:22And you can make the case some of the best Tag Team action of the world
27:26is happening right now in Evolve.
27:28He's flamboyant.
27:29He's opulent.
27:30He's confident.
27:31He says he's a 10 out of 10.
27:33Can he get their first win?
27:38Aaron Wark.
27:39He brings a certain level of sass that you just don't see anywhere else.
27:44And the athleticism as those knees connect.
27:47And a pin.
27:49And Igwe kicks out at two.
27:51Well, that's why he calls himself the Dime Piece.
27:56DuPont missing.
27:58There goes Igwe.
28:01Aaron Wark has cleared the ring.
28:06What's happening now?
28:07Double trouble!
28:11Wark and Mathers take it out.
28:13High rise on the outside.
28:16Let's check it out here.
28:17The double suicide dive to the outside of the ring on high rise.
28:22That was cool.
28:23Cool stuff.
28:26Indeed from Wark and Mathers.
28:28And now Wark back in the ring with Tyreek Igwe.
28:32Oof.
28:34And, you know, Wark is...
28:35Wow, look at the athleticism here from both men.
28:37Oh!
28:38He caught him.
28:40Now Wark up top.
28:41I don't even know who the legal man is, Stone.
28:43Well, I think it's Wark because the referee's going for it.
28:47Two.
28:47And DuPont breaks it up.
28:49You get caught up, though, in Wark's athleticism.
28:51He's got some physical stature as well.
28:53He does.
28:54Tyson's got some power.
28:56Oh, man!
28:57I got to tell you, I am shocked and impressed by the control that Mathers and Wark are showing
29:03over high rise right here.
29:05Watch out!
29:07Went for another dog, but he got caught this time.
29:11Oh!
29:11You know what?
29:12Oh, and take it out.
29:14Maybe a little too cute there from Marcus Mathers.
29:17Big boot from Wark.
29:19But watch out.
29:20Here comes Igwe.
29:21He eats a boot as well.
29:23Wark's going up top, Rob.
29:25This has been nonstop action.
29:27And, hey, this has evolved.
29:28This is the way it should be.
29:29Oh, no one home for Aaron Wark.
29:33Oh!
29:35The big boot from Tyreek Igwe.
29:38The tag to DuPont.
29:40High Rise gaining control here.
29:42Wark's in trouble.
29:43Heartstopper!
29:45That's got to do it.
29:47Two, three.
29:49High Rise wins again.
29:52Here are your winners.
29:54The High Rise!
29:56Well, the High Rise with a big win.
30:01And there's got to be such disappointment for Wark and Matherstone.
30:05It really felt like a win was right there for the taking.
30:08And they come up short again.
30:09You saw here Marcus and Wark with some tag team offense working together.
30:14It looked great.
30:15But the power of Tyreek was too much.
30:18Wark back there with double knees off the top rope.
30:21But he missed here.
30:23Nobody was home.
30:24And it led to the Heartstopper, which you know nobody is getting up from.
30:29High Rise are back in Evolve.
30:32And they got a big victory.
30:35Absolutely a monster win.
30:37You see Wes Lee very proud of his guys.
30:41And for Wark and Mathers, after a great performance,
30:44they still end up looking for a dub here in Evolve.
30:51Great tag team action.
30:52Well, there was amazing action in this past match.
30:56But if you want to see insanity, Peter, you need to hold on tight.
30:59Because up next, we have the gatekeeper of Evolve, Wendy Chu,
31:04going up against a big cat Kida right here on Evolve.
31:08And it is next.
31:09This November.
31:14The last time is now.
31:17But I plan on going down guns blazing.
31:20The greatest of all time.
31:22Ghost Garden to Garden.
31:24One final time.
31:26On Monday Night Raw.
31:28So if you want some.
31:35Oh, my God.
31:36Boston, Monday, November 10th.
31:38And New York City, Monday, November 17th.
31:41Tickets on sale now.
31:41Stevie, Stevie, listen.
31:47I know you saw that trash a few weeks ago.
31:50Cappuccino Jack and Cartwheel Jones get one up on us
31:52and acting like they won the Super Bowl.
31:53Yeah, yeah.
31:54They better enjoy it while it lasts
31:55because we want a rematch against those scrawny ass clowns.
31:59Why?
31:59Why would you want a rematch against Adrenaline Drip?
32:02Didn't you say you were going to send them back to the Indies
32:05and that flipping and flying wasn't quite the answer
32:07to getting punched in the mouth?
32:09I believe they gave you quite the answer.
32:11Well, listen, Stevie.
32:12I mean, GM.
32:13PM.
32:13It was just a fluke.
32:15Yeah, nine, nine times out of a hundred we beat those guys.
32:17They just got one early.
32:18I mean, doesn't the WWE Universe
32:20want the rubber matches of all rubber matches?
32:22I mean, the biggest rubber match of my career, right?
32:24Isn't this your third match ever?
32:27Technically, that would make it your first ever rubber match, too, but...
32:30The biggest one.
32:31The biggest one of my career.
32:32You're right, Stevie.
32:33Yeah, Stevie.
32:33I think if Stone was GM, he'd grant this match.
32:36Did you just mention Stone's name in my office?
32:40I see what you're doing.
32:42You have your match.
32:43And not because you mentioned Stone.
32:45Because I believe Jack Cartwheel and Cappuccino Jones
32:49deserve the chance to prove their victory was not a fluke.
32:52Thank you, Stevie.
32:54And hey, sorry about the Stone comment.
32:57You mentioned Stone in here.
32:59Stupid Stone.
33:01It doesn't worry me.
33:02Wow.
33:03You are not right.
33:06Believe me, the feeling's mutual.
33:08All right, it's time!
33:10The following contest is scheduled for a one fall.
33:16Introducing first, from the city that never sleeps, Wendy Chu!
33:24Week by week, ever since Kendall Gray made Wendy Chu say I quit, she has become different.
33:34Literally, she's become a different person in front of our very eyes.
33:38So, when we're hearing her talk and say words, it's almost like a baby.
33:42When you hear a baby say its first words, it's almost shocking.
33:44How's their voice going to sound?
33:45You know, I kind of, you know, I kind of, you know, I kind of agree with Nikita.
33:47Her voice kind of makes my ears bleed a little bit, too.
33:50I liked her way better when she was beautiful.
33:52I'm enjoying Wendy Chu with some personality aside we didn't know existed.
33:59We know she's great in the ring, but we are learning who she is as a person.
34:04But she's going to have her hands full tonight against Big Cat, Kida, who has been making
34:10her presence felt here in Evolve.
34:13Ball is out!
34:14That's exactly right.
34:16My favorite entrance, she sings her own theme music.
34:20Rawr!
34:21Rawr!
34:22Please don't dance along.
34:23Please.
34:24And her opponent, from Los Angeles, California, Nikita Miles!
34:34She does it all, she raps, she sings, she wrestles, she talks trash, she is glowing, she is magnetic,
34:45she is whimsical, she's Big Cat Kida, she's a lioness, she's Nikita Multimedia.
34:49Peter, how is it hard to find words for Nikita Lions?
34:52She often fights with the air before matches start, she does so many things.
34:58She's pumping herself off, that's what real competition is.
35:01I'm sure you did that during your 24-7 title, Ron.
35:04That's a great point.
35:05Before your matches, you had to get ready like that.
35:06You know what, I...
35:07How's your meniscus, by the way?
35:08Uh, well, slowly but surely, physical therapy is getting...
35:11I'm glad.
35:12Okay, thank you for asking.
35:13I'm glad.
35:14Wendy Chu and Nikita Lions, women's action here on Evolve.
35:18Excited to see this one.
35:19Look at the clash of styles, also the size disparity.
35:22Nikita towering over Wendy.
35:24And look, Peter, you know what real star power is.
35:28You've been on the radio, you're on ESPN, you've interviewed numerous big-time superstars
35:35before.
35:36You've got to admit, Nikita Lions is a real superstar.
35:40Absolutely.
35:41There's no question.
35:42She has a completely different kind of charisma.
35:45There is only one Nikita Lions, just like there is only one Wendy Chu, as you see her crawling
35:51across the ring like a rabid dog and biting Nikita Lions.
35:54Well, you can see that she's still a weirdo with these weird movements, but why now?
35:58Why all of a sudden now?
35:59Okay, she lost the, I quit, Matt, she had to say two words, I quit, but why now does
36:03all of a sudden she want to talk more?
36:05I don't get it.
36:06Sometimes there's that one event that happens in a person's life, and sometimes it's something
36:12like a setback that can change that person permanently.
36:15I think that's what we saw with Wendy Chu.
36:18Now, if you're Nikita Lions, Robert Stone, how do you prepare for Wendy Chu style-wise?
36:23She is bizarre.
36:24I mean, I think that's what we're all trying to figure out right now.
36:28Is she the same Wendy?
36:29Do you prepare for that old Wendy or what?
36:32Meow.
36:33What is that?
36:34She meowed at her.
36:35She just meowed at her.
36:36We just saw a meow at the big cat.
36:37I don't think the old Wendy Chu meows.
36:39I don't think so either.
36:41The old Wendy Chu stares you down and haunts you and stares into your soul.
36:45Well, Wendy Chu said, hey, I'm taking on the big cat.
36:48I might as well meow.
36:49Hey, I'm down here.
36:50Let's go.
36:51Not what I expected, but there's a not so silly punch to the gut from Nikita Lions.
36:57I mean, Wendy Chu now is trying to fit in the locker room.
36:59That's like a wild animal trying to act tame in a zoo.
37:02I mean, maybe she could go in the locker room, but will she ever belong in it?
37:07Will they ever accept Wendy Chu into the women's locker room?
37:10Well, listen, I think she's been accepted in women's locker rooms all around the world.
37:14Do you know the decorated resume of Wendy Chu?
37:17I do.
37:18I do.
37:19In ring.
37:20Amazing.
37:21That was cool.
37:22She always has that innovative offense.
37:23Always a unique style as Lions pops out and escapes it too.
37:29But man, isn't it interesting?
37:31Wendy physically looks different.
37:34She's changed the makeup a bit.
37:36Her whole style just looks different.
37:38Yeah.
37:39I mean, honestly, it's confusing.
37:40I mean, she might look a little different after she took that blow to the turf.
37:43Oh, man.
37:44And a kick to the ribs that took her out of the ring.
37:47Nikita Lions also.
37:48We've talked about the innovation offensively from Wendy Chu.
37:51Got to talk about the innovative offense in Nikita Lions.
37:54You showed it right there with that kick.
37:55Well, and the educated feet.
37:57I mean, she knows what she's doing.
37:58She has a background in karate, a background in fighting.
38:02It's not just any kick.
38:03It's a spin kick from Nikita Lions.
38:06And she's using that power advantage over Wendy right now to toss her around and send
38:11Wendy back into the ring.
38:13Wendy Chu, of course, early on in Evolve was racking up win after win.
38:18She's now hit some harder times after losing that I quit match to Kendall Gray.
38:25Right now, Nikita is at the top of her game in Evolve.
38:29Being cocky isn't a flaw when you have earned your crown.
38:32And believe me, she has.
38:35Seems like she's taking a bit too much time here, though.
38:38Maybe wants to get right on top of Wendy Chu.
38:40What is she thinking about?
38:41Oh, I think I know.
38:43Uh-oh.
38:44Watch out, kids.
38:45You heard her.
38:46Touch grass.
38:48You can do it.
38:49Put your back into it.
38:51I'm going to stay seated.
38:52I'm going to stay seated, Peter.
38:54Don't worry.
38:55I mean, what are you going to sing next?
38:58Here comes Nikita Lions.
39:01Right hand to the face of Chu.
39:03Sending her in.
39:04Oh, and there's a little more derriere.
39:07That's one way to use your backside.
39:09Hey, whatever works, works.
39:11Pinfall.
39:13Nikita.
39:14Wendy kicks out at two.
39:16Man.
39:19You know who I think would really enjoy this match?
39:21Who's that?
39:22The Hall of Famer Booker team.
39:24Oh, you know, we're agreeing on something here.
39:27I don't know if we'd understand everything you'd be saying during it.
39:30I think he'd have a lot of things to say during this match.
39:34There's a lot for Booker to enjoy as Nikita going to work here on the Sleepy Psycho.
39:40If she still is, in fact, the Sleepy Psycho, we saw her take the mask off earlier.
39:46And by the way, where is the pillow?
39:48No pillowcase today.
39:49That's a good question.
39:50I guess, you know.
39:51And Wendy fighting back now.
39:53Maybe they wouldn't let it in the woman's locker room.
39:55I mean, that thing was cursed anyway.
39:57Wendy with chops and slaps and punches.
40:00Nikita missing wildly with the right.
40:02Wendy Chu taking her down.
40:04More Wendy Chu.
40:06She's bringing the energy to Nikita Lyons.
40:09Does she have enough to take out the big cat?
40:12Well, it's looking like it with that flying, spinning head scissors.
40:18Wendy Chu summoning some energy from the crowd.
40:21When did you think you'd see the Evolve Universe cheering for Wendy Chu?
40:25That's what's happening.
40:26Hey, it's 2025.
40:27This is a star versus a head case.
40:29But right now, the head case is doing what she's got to do.
40:32Wendy connecting with the boot upstairs on Lyons.
40:35Back inside.
40:36High flying cross body there from Chu.
40:40Goes for the pin.
40:41She'll probably need to hook a leg.
40:43Not enough there to keep Big Cat down.
40:46It was a two count though.
40:47It was close.
40:48Who is gonna dig deeper at this point in the match?
40:53Is it Wendy Chu?
40:55Is it Nikita Lyons?
40:57Uh-oh.
40:58Wendy could be in trouble, but she reverses it.
41:01It's a tight roll up.
41:02Two.
41:03Nikita kicks out.
41:05Oh, man.
41:06Another kick right back to those ribs.
41:09And now double underhook into a power bump.
41:11But wait.
41:12That could be it.
41:13Two.
41:14She didn't have her feet on top of Wendy's arms to get that extra pressure to hold her down.
41:21That may have been a mistake.
41:23And Wendy kicking out at two as these ladies go back and forth here on Evolve.
41:33Nikita has Wendy up top.
41:34She finds her way down.
41:35Kicking a miss.
41:36Wait, wait, dirt nap.
41:37Is she looking for the dirt nap?
41:38Could she keep it locked on?
41:39Is it even on all the way?
41:41Well, it's not now.
41:42I just think she's struggling to keep the dirt nap locked in.
41:47Now Wendy's gonna go up high.
41:49Second rope.
41:50Oh, this time she was caught.
41:53And planted.
41:54Nikita dumps her down.
41:56Now Nikita's gonna go up instead.
41:58Oh, no one home for Lyons.
42:02Wendy has an opportunity.
42:05Oh, and now she may be able to lock in the dirt nap.
42:08I think it is locked in.
42:11Nikita's stuck in the middle of the ring.
42:13She tapped.
42:16Here is your winner by submission, Wendy Chu.
42:22Man, it may be a different Wendy Chu, but the same results.
42:27Another W.
42:28Well, you saw here Wendy with that clothesline into the corner,
42:31following by this massive effective kick to Nikita's face.
42:35But Nikita touching grass, putting her back into it like she does best.
42:40And then Wendy here jumping off the second rope for crossbody, but got caught.
42:45Nikita now going off the second of her own and missed here.
42:50And then Wendy finishing her off with the dirt nap.
42:53That presence of mind of Wendy Chu.
42:58She gets the opportunity, takes advantage.
43:00And Stone, that's the beauty of having a maneuver like the dirt nap in your arsenal.
43:05You get the spot.
43:06You can turn things on a dime.
43:08And that's what Wendy Chu does.
43:10Nikita Lyons left wondering what's next as Wendy Chu picks up a huge win here on Evolve.
43:19Tate Wilder, while you're icing up your injuries, I want you to listen to me.
43:28You represent the reason why I hate Evolve.
43:32While I'm over here trying to figure out why I've been screwed out of the Evolve championship so many times,
43:38my thought process keeps breaking because all I hear is you yapping about how you believe you should be
43:45on Evolve's biggest show in history.
43:48How you should be on Succession.
43:53Oh, El Desperado, he gets one big victory and he thinks he deserves the spotlight.
44:01That ain't just inexperienced talking, but that is plain stupidity talking.
44:07Succession should be my showcase.
44:10So yeah, maybe I took it in my own hands and I kicked your ass.
44:15But good news, cowboy.
44:18Next week, it's gonna be me versus you.
44:24And we all know what happened last time.
44:27Let's just say, uh, I want to convince in fashion, right?
44:32But somehow, it gets worse for you.
44:37Because next week at Succession, Tate Wilder versus Brooks Jensen in a bullrope match.
44:45Wow, Stone, a bullrope match.
44:48Brooks Jensen is certainly focused on Succession.
44:51But speaking of Succession, coming up, we're gonna hear from the champ,
44:54Jackson Drake, Ricky Smokes, Brad Baylor, Real Deal Zeta Steel, and of course, Bryce Donovan.
45:00Bryce Donovan, the Vanity Project are in the house to find out who will challenge for the Evolve Championship at Succession.
45:07It's all going down next on Evolve.
45:13This November.
45:14It is quite the feeling here.
45:15It is electric.
45:16The Padres' home field.
45:18It's a whole new lineup.
45:21When WWE.
45:23An absolutely incredible scene.
45:27It's Petco Park.
45:29A slugfest for the ages.
45:33Oh, my goodness.
45:39The epic performance that no one will ever, ever forget.
45:44WWE Survivor Series San Diego.
45:47Tickets on sale now.
45:50The boys are here.
45:55The party is here.
46:00Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome The Vanity Project.
46:05And the WWE World Champion, Jackson Drake.
46:13Well, make no mistake about it.
46:15Heartbreak Drake looks like a million bucks.
46:18But under the facade, there have been issues within the Vanity Project Stone.
46:25You've got to get over that situation, man.
46:27You've got to get that out of your head.
46:28There isn't.
46:29Look at them.
46:30They're a family.
46:31I told you, it's what families do.
46:34Let me say this.
46:35Next week, succession involves biggest show ever on Tubi next Wednesday.
46:43Jackson Drake might not even have an opponent.
46:44Who's worthy?
46:45Well, of course, Bryce Donovan did attempt to take out Keanu Carver last week.
46:50We do not know how the number one contender is doing.
46:53I'm also disgusted by Brad Baylor wearing flip flops in the ring.
46:56But that's neither here nor there.
46:57Simmer down, please.
46:58Simmer down real quick.
47:03All right.
47:04Well, we all saw this one coming, right?
47:07We all saw this one coming.
47:09Stevie Turner, a.k.a. the number one Vanity Project hater,
47:14is going to make me wait until the very last second
47:17to figure out who my new challenger is for the Evolve Championship at succession.
47:24So, I'm out here with the rest of the Vanity Project.
47:30Who we got?
47:31Who's it going to be?
47:33Who's going to take the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
47:36to wrestle Mr. Evolve for the Evolve Championship?
47:41Well, hello.
47:42Oh, come on.
47:43Super Shawn Legacy has something to say.
47:47Something to say.
47:48This doesn't mean what I think it means, does it?
47:50Well, certainly he is someone who believes
47:53if someone's deserving an opportunity, it should be him.
47:56Shawn Legacy.
47:57Legacy!
47:58Legacy!
47:59Legacy!
48:00Legacy!
48:01Legacy!
48:02Legacy!
48:03Legacy!
48:04Legacy!
48:05Jackson Drake, you and I have been rivals
48:07since the very first episode of Evolve.
48:11I mean, this started on the Indies.
48:14To Evolve.
48:15I mean, even through NXT and Man Vanity Project.
48:17Wow!
48:18They suck!
48:19They suck!
48:20You guys have been making my life a living hell!
48:24So, I can't think of a better way to take my ultimate revenge
48:28by taking away the biggest prize that you have at our biggest show ever.
48:35Excuse me real quick.
48:40Keanu, I know you're watching.
48:43And when I beat Jackson Drake, and when you are cleared, I will give Duke.
48:50Oh!
48:51Oh, goodness gracious!
48:52EOE!
48:53What is Idris doing?
48:54Well, here's someone who deserves to be the number one contender.
48:57Oh, this guy doesn't deserve a thing!
48:59What?
49:00Why is that in Shawn Legacy yet again?
49:02This is what Edobe does.
49:04And this is not who he used to be, Stone.
49:06Maybe Stevie Turner actually did something right for once, and she made the EOE the number one contender.
49:12Well, that would certainly be an interesting way to celebrate.
49:15This is disgusting.
49:19Whoa, wait.
49:20When Shawn Legacy has to stick his nose in his business that's not his,
49:23he deserves it through the screen!
49:25You caught on me again.
49:27Edobe sends Legacy right into that digital board.
49:31Look at it.
49:32Yeah, let's get some help.
49:33He broke it.
49:34My God!
49:37What is wrong with Idris Edobe?
49:43Damn.
49:44That sucks.
49:46Bye, Shawn!
49:51Buddy couldn't even get himself to the ring.
49:53How do you ever think he's gotta take the title off a heartbreak drape?
49:57Hondos, kid!
49:58Hondos!
50:00No!
50:01No, no, no, no, no, no.
50:02Listen.
50:03What?
50:04No more hundos.
50:05No more hundos!
50:06No more hundos!
50:07No more hundos!
50:08It's bitcoins, baby, because we look like a million bucks, dude.
50:12Who's the next challenger?
50:13Who's the next challenger?
50:15Who's the next challenger?
50:17There is no next challenger.
50:19So, instead of defending my title, this is what we're gonna do, okay?
50:25Next week, for the very first time, we're gonna have a Vanity Project Appreciation Night.
50:34Now that sounds like a way to make Succession special.
50:39Bro, we're gonna throw the biggest party Evolve has ever seen, because why the hell not?
50:46Look at us.

52:58Is Bryce Donovan out of his mind?
53:01Watch out, Drake!
53:03My God!
53:04He's making this thing official!
53:30He's making the biggest mistake of his life!
53:32Bryce Donovan will get his chance at the Evolve Championship!
