00:34I'm a

00:44I'm a

00:46It is time ladies and gentlemen for WWE evolve on to be Peter Rosenberg Robert Stone are you ready for some adrenaline?

01:14The following contest is a tag team match introducing first Jack Cartwheel, Cappuccino Jones, Adrenaline Drew!

01:34Do you have your coffee stone?

01:38Yeah, my mind is still blown that people actually come here with coffee cups to support these guys and all they've been doing all week is talking about this match coming up.

01:46It's like by beating Presley and Riggins they won the Super Bowl or something it was one match it was a fluke like calm down guys we're in the rubber match right now.

01:55Stone Stone this is one of the most exciting young tag teams in all of wrestling. I can't believe you don't feel it. You're not impressed.

02:04I'm not saying they're not young I'm not saying they're not exciting great in the ring whatever I'm just saying you gotta win it's a great thing but relax.

02:12I mean they're showing off on all the social media like it was the main event of WrestleMania.

02:17And their opponents, the team of Harley Riggins and Chax Presley!

02:23See this is exactly why you need to be impressed.

02:26My!

02:27Now see, are you gonna condone that? The bell hasn't even rung yet.

02:32Well listen this.

02:34What?

02:35Oh see they caught him.

02:37Oh wait a minute.

02:39Well listen this rivalry stone has been intense.

02:43I'm not surprised.

02:44Adrenaline Drift wanted to get right after it.

02:46Is Jeremy Marcus letting this, is the referee letting this happen?

02:49I don't think he has any choice.

02:51Chaos out of the gate here.

02:53Okay now the bell's rung.

02:55What?

02:56Oh but hold on.

02:58Cappuccino almost immediately found himself in a bad way.

03:03Quick tag.

03:04Already we are hot and heavy to get things started on Evolve.

03:08Hit him there with a steam roller.

03:11Look at that.

03:12Getting froggy.

03:14Jack Cartwheel going for a pin.

03:17And a kick out.

03:18I mean I love their intensity from the get go.

03:20It's what you gotta do but you gotta follow the rules fellas.

03:23Wait till the bell rings.

03:25Riggins and Presley are getting overwhelmed by offense early on from Adrenaline Drift.

03:33Now listen Stone you gotta give them credit though.

03:35Isn't this the approach you have to have if you're Adrenaline Drift?

03:38You have to follow rules.

03:40I mean there's no doubt about it.

03:41You know what you've done now?

03:42You have upset the space cowboy Jax Presley even more.

03:45Cause look at him.

03:46Now you have made this giant, this D1 stud even more mad.

03:51So was it a good plan?

03:53But hear me out Stone.

03:54When you have this sort of disparity in size and power.

03:58Don't you have to take advantage of anything you can if your Adrenaline Drift?

04:01That's within the rules Peter.

04:03Wait, now.

04:04It's funny how the rules come and go for you.

04:06Cause with Vanity Project.

04:07No, no, no, no, no.

04:08Now you're talking about other people.

04:10We're talking about this match.

04:11And Cappuccino in a bad spot here.

04:14Here comes Riggins.

04:16Watch out Jack Hartwheel.

04:18And what's that?

04:19And what's that?

04:20That's deserved.

04:21That's what that is.

04:22Targeting.

04:23Backstabber there to Cappuccino and a good pin.

04:28And a kick out from Cappuccino at two.

04:31They each have one win.

04:33This is the rubber match.

04:35The WWE, the Evolve Universe wants it.

04:38Who is gonna come out successful in this third bout, baby?

04:42I have enjoyed this rivalry quite a bit every Wednesday night between these very different styles.

04:51Oh, man.

04:52Right there.

04:53They're getting crushed.

04:54Cappuccino is.

04:55And there's a pin.

04:56Cappuccino will kick out at two.

04:59Cappuccino Jones having a rough go here to think this is how he's chosen to celebrate National Cappuccino Day.

05:06Getting mugged by Jackson Harley.

05:08A sad thought here, Peter.

05:10I agree, but that's not how you would do it, Scott?

05:12No, I rise and grind every morning, Peter.

05:14Not just when everyone else is doing it.

05:16Of course you do.

05:17As Cappuccino gets the tag here, and here comes Cartwheel.

05:24Cartwheel is in.

05:25The West Coast Innovator with lots of slaps for Riggins and Presley.

05:31Oh, man.

05:33Watch out.

05:34He's explosive.

05:35He's impactful.

05:36I mean, he took both of them out.

05:40That was impressive.

05:41Jack Cartwheel feeling it early.

05:46Oh, man.

05:48Oh, now it's just a good old fashioned beatdown.

05:50Wow, I've never seen this side of Cartwheel.

05:52Interesting approach.

05:54And he caught him.

05:55Lot of authority there as he slammed Presley down to the mat.

06:02I think at this point in the game, Jack Cartwheel might be so upset.

06:09He might be making bad decisions.

06:11He connects right there, and Cappuccino's the legal man.

06:15Hits with the froggy elbow.

06:20Oh, so close.

06:22Cappuccino Jones inches from victory.

06:24Riggins comes and breaks it up, but watch out.

06:26Here comes Cartwheel.

06:27Oh, man.

06:30Precarious spot for Jack Cartwheel.

06:32Oh, my God.

06:33Throwing him around like he's just a little toy.

06:36In the hard way goes Jack Cartwheel,

06:39and now Cappuccino Jones finds himself alone in with both Riggins and Preston.

06:44Jeremy Marcus trying to get control, get the two legal guys in.

06:48More punches and punches there.

06:50Oh, my God.

06:51Cappuccino Jones.

06:52Bodies are, I mean, bodies are flying before my eyes.

06:56I'm trying to just comprehend everything going on.

06:58We are just underway on Evolve on a Wednesday night.

07:04Wait a minute.

07:05Watch out.

07:06That's gotta be it for Cappuccino Jones.

07:08Jack Cartwheel breaking things up.

07:11These guys are great in the ring.

07:13I don't know how smart they are.

07:14I almost would have wanted to stay down after that.

07:17Things breaking down here as Cartwheel is tossed outside of the ring, and

07:21Jax is following him out.

07:22Man, Cartwheel's in a bad way on the outside right here.

07:26As he finds his way to the rope, he is lucky.

07:30My, a shoe's off.

07:31Come on.

07:32Oh, come on.

07:33He lost the shoe and used it as a weapon.

07:35I mean, I guess if it's on your foot anyway, you could use it, but come on.

07:40Cappuccino dive into the outside.

07:42We got men everywhere.

07:45You know what, Stone?

07:46You're not wrong.

07:47The ref's gotta get control of this thing.

07:49Well, right now, Harley Riggins has control of Cappuccino Jones.

07:53He catches him in midair.

07:54Watch out.

07:55Another chokes him.

07:56Wait, this time Cappuccino got out of it.

07:58And a big right hand from Cappuccino.

08:00And a second one as Riggins dazed it down.

08:02He gave him a shot of espresso.

08:05Legal Man is Cartwheel.

08:07Wait a minute.

08:08Are they going for Flippin' Sip?

08:10They're gonna try to, not so fast.

08:13Look at the power of Harley Riggins.

08:15Let the bodies hit the floor.

08:17All right, now Presley the Legal Man.

08:22Uh-oh.

08:23I don't like the position Jack Cartwheel is in right now.

08:26Well, we've seen this.

08:28That's gonna be it for Adrenaline Trip.

08:33Here are your winners, the team of Harley Riggins and Jax Presley.

08:42That was an incredible way to start off our night on Evolve.

08:47Well, from the very outset, action, action, action.

08:52But in the end, Presley and Riggins on top.

08:55Yeah, there was a lot on the line in this rubber match as both these teams were one and one going in.

09:00Cartwheel and Cappuccino did what they do best using their unique abilities to gain the momentum.

09:06But the quickly rising Riggins and Presley used their brutal power to decaffeinate Adrenaline Trip with a huge victory.

09:13Very impressive stuff from both teams.

09:17But I gotta say, wait, wait, wait.

09:21What are they doing?

09:22Riggins and Presley are back in the ring.

09:24Yeah, I mean, what are we?

09:26What are they doing?

09:28Another?

09:29Well, Peter, we know they're all about unsportsmanlike conduct.

09:34That's their thing, but I'm even saying that maybe that's a little too far.

09:38Hey, that's what they do.

09:39We eat in the ground up.

09:41Break them in half.

09:42Bring us some little wrestling.

09:43Bring us some little wrestling.

09:44Bring us some little wrestling.

09:45Yeah.

09:46Yeah.

09:47Yeah.

09:48Riggins and Presley destroying everything in sight.

09:51That's how it goes.

09:52You want some more of that?

09:54My name is John Cena.

09:59I'm a kid who grew up in a small town in West Newberry.

10:02The time is up.

10:03And I'm living the dream.

10:04The champ is here.

10:08My time is now.

10:12My time is now.

10:15You can't see me.

10:17My time is now.

10:19Before our next matchup, let's rewind to NXT last week, where Women's Evolved Champion,

10:32Kendall Gray defended her friend, Ren Sinclair, in a fierce showdown with Last Legend,

10:37a clash that turned brutally physical in a hurt.

10:42And how much more did Kendall just get out of the way?

10:46Jumping right in, and shades of gray!

10:48Into the cover!

10:50What?

10:51That's gotta be an upset!

10:53Are you kidding me?

10:55Wow.

10:56Here is your winner, and still, the Evolved Women's Champion, Kendall Gray!

11:08Kendall Gray retains as Gray continues to evolve.

11:13What a fantastic victory for Kendall Gray on NXT.

11:17The following contest is scheduled for one fall.

11:18Introducing first, from Rockford, Illinois, Hayes Jameson!

11:32What's up, Evolved Nation?

11:35I am the wild child, Hayes Jameson.

11:39Some of you might know me from season two of LFG, but if you don't, you're officially invited

11:44to watch me bring the party to Evolve.

11:47One thing you're quickly gonna learn is that it doesn't matter who's taking their shot at me.

11:52Because once I start slamming them, there is nothing that can slow me down.

11:57Let's go!

11:59Well, Hayes Jameson is certainly a party, a good time, good energy.

12:03And I'm sure she's hoping that can last with her matchup here tonight on Evolved Stone.

12:09Yep.

12:10Party girl, but the party, it might end short tonight.

12:13And her opponent, from Seattle, Washington, PJ Vassa!

12:26You may have seen PJ Vassa on LFG.

12:29You also may have seen her absolutely woman-handle our champ, Kendall Gray,

12:35last week at the end of her championship celebration.

12:38I mean, think of the statement she made last week.

12:42The first time we see her on Evolve, she is taking out our brand new Evolved Women's Champion

12:47and her best friend, I might add, two people at once.

12:50She is here at Evolve, and believe me, she has a plan, she has a purpose,

12:54and she was very confident walking out, throwing up that S for Samoa.

12:58PJ Vassa is certainly someone I've been excited to get my eyes on,

13:04and I think Hayes Jameson may feel the exact opposite based on what her face looked like

13:09when PJ Vassa walked out.

13:11Remember, PJ, LFG Season 1 under Booker T, LFG Season 2 under Michelle McCool.

13:17They're watching this right now.

13:19They're making sure that she is doing everything that they taught her.

13:23Authority early on, and Hayes Jameson already seems like the part of the

13:27may be in doubt.

13:29PJ's got strength, skill, ability, natural charisma.

13:34I mean, just look at her presence in the ring.

13:37You can feel it.

13:39Hayes Jameson creates a little separation with the back elbow.

13:42Uses her feet there to take down Vassa for just a moment at least.

13:47But watch out, body shot.

13:49And there's no doubt about it.

13:52There's no love lost even between these two.

13:54They weren't friends on LFG.

13:56They didn't like each other on LFG.

13:57And he continues here on Evolve.

13:59Hayes Jameson doing whatever she can.

14:02Look, I'm giving Hayes credit.

14:04She's fighting.

14:05She's trying.

14:06Well, that's a smart move, isn't it?

14:07Stone to go for the base of PJ Vassa.

14:08Of course, take her down, yes.

14:10Hold on now.

14:12A DDT from the knees.

14:14Hayes Jameson with a pinfall.

14:16Oh, my God.

14:17She just threw her off.

14:21Hayes, get on her.

14:22Make a move.

14:23Yeah, you have to do that, right, Stone?

14:25She had a moment there.

14:26Every second counts.

14:27And now she's on the back of PJ Vassa, attempting a bit of a choke hold.

14:31I don't think she has it cinched in enough to do anything to PJ Vassa,

14:35who frankly just looks irritated.

14:37You got to remember, this is PJ's official in-ring debut on Evolve.

14:41She's going to make it count.

14:42She's going to make it memorable.

14:44My goodness.

14:49The falling headbutt to Hayes Jameson has to have her woozy.

14:54Man.

14:55I have to imagine, I know where this is going.

14:58The issue.

15:00That is going to be it for Hayes Jameson.

15:03Here is your winner, PJ Vassa.

15:10Well, last week Evolve ended with this face staring down at Kendall Gray after she took out our champ.

15:21And now Hayes Jameson, the next victim of PJ Vassa.

15:25Hayes Jameson, no stranger to the Evolve ring, had her work cut out for her from the jump because it was all PJ Vassa.

15:33The former LFG prospect made a major statement both last weekend tonight in her Evolve debut, scoring her first victory, which I'm certain will lead to an impressive Evolve future.

15:45Now we send it over to Chewy Martinez.

15:48PJ Vassa making a very quick statement here at Evolve.

15:52Wow, congratulations.

15:54I make impact everywhere I go.

15:56I dominated LFG and just in two weeks, two weeks Chewy, I'm already dominating Evolve.

16:03And you know who I started with?

16:04I started with the champ.

16:05Everybody gotta come get their issue.

16:08PJ Vassa, force to be reckoned with here at Evolve.

16:13I see you, I see you.

16:14Let's check in with Jackson Drake and Stevie, all right?

16:19Hey, Stevie.

16:21Listen, I need to talk to you.

16:23I'm gonna have to seriously question your leadership prowess after what you've put me through the last couple weeks here.

16:28Okay, Jackson, sure, I hear you, but don't you dare act like I don't know what goes on on my show.

16:34Too late for that.

16:35I am fully aware of everything that happens here on Evolve, and I know that it was you that put a target on Keanu's back and sent your little friends after him.

16:42Whoa, whoa, pump the brakes, you got the wrong guy.

16:44Jackson, just shut up for a second.

16:46I don't know how you could possibly blame anyone but yourself for him being in that cast.

16:51Guess what?

16:52He is still your number one contender and you still have a match against him.

16:56End of story.

16:58No, that's not the end of story.

16:59Yes, it is.

17:00Stevie, you gotta be kidding me.

17:02I'm not risking my life or my career for Keanu the Clown.

17:05Calm down.

17:06Bro already has a record of injuring his opponents.

17:08He has a weapon on his wrist.

17:10He did that.

17:11Oh, my God.

17:12Keep cracking.

17:13Joe.

17:14Hell no.

17:15What the, Stevie, get your boy?

17:16Keanu, stop.

17:17You have your match.

17:18You have your match.

17:19Don't make me change my mind.

17:21Calm down.

17:22Well, Keanu Carver showing he's a true force.

17:28But now onto one of Evolve's newest additions, WWE ID Prospect, Mike Cunningham,

17:33will step into the Evolve ring for the very first time to face the bad man from Alabama,

17:39Bam, Bam, Bama, Brooks Jensen, next on Evolve.

18:23Hey, Mike Cunningham.

18:24Nice to meet you.

18:25Nice to meet you.

18:26And hey, welcome to the WWE ID program.

18:29I really appreciate it, cuz right now, I've got a lot being thrown at me.

18:33But I gotta say, I'm excited.

18:35As you should be.

18:36Yeah, and when I go show Brooks Jensen, why I am the main man.

18:41There you go.

18:42Put it there.

18:43Hey, nice to meet you.

18:44Yes, sir.

18:45Nice to meet you.

18:46I like that energy.

18:47Keep it up.

18:48And hey, stay super.

18:49Marcus, you could?

18:53No.

18:54I lost last week, Shawn.

18:56I lost the triple A, the ID and the PC triple threat match.

19:00And I let myself down and I let the whole ID program down.

19:03No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

19:04Bro, you lose.

19:05Okay?

19:06You lose some.

19:07We win some, we lose some.

19:08Alright?

19:09That's just the nature of this.

19:10You can't let this get you down.

19:11You're right.

19:12You're right.

19:13You gotta learn from this.

19:14Just beating myself up.

19:15Alright?

19:16The new ID guys are coming in and it's cool.

19:17It's great.

19:18But it's putting a lot of pressure on myself to perform at a higher level.

19:21Mike, he's great as well.

19:23But spots are getting smaller and smaller.

19:25And just what happened last week, it got me shaking.

19:27I get it, but you can't wallow.

19:30You gotta step up to the plate, my man.

19:32Look, I get to introduce Eli Knight to the club next week.

19:35After talking to Stevie, Eli and I are going one on one.

19:39That's great for the both of you.

19:40But remember, Shawn, we're in this together.

19:42Being ID guys, we have a huge target on our back.

19:45Yeah, you damn right we do because we've been absolutely killing it.

19:48So, of course, they want to come after us.

19:50But look, I got y'all's bag just like I know you got mine.

19:53But hey, next week, I got business to take care of.

19:57And you do that.

19:58There you go.

20:00That's what I want.

20:05Two of the ID programs find a super, Shawn Legacy and Marcus Mathers,

20:09making sure these new ID prospects are on their side

20:12right before they step into the Evolve ring for the very first time.

20:18The following contest is scheduled for one fall.

20:21Introducing first,

20:22Brogan Ramp in Alabama weighing in at 250 pounds,

20:27Brooks and Jensen.

20:31Well, last week, Stone, we were getting introduced to some very new

20:35and exciting WWE ID talent.

20:38Brooks Jensen obviously felt a way about these young men getting the spotlight.

20:43And he came down and decided to get both.

20:47He didn't just come down.

20:48The man from Alabama, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam,

20:52Bama came down.

20:53That's who came down.

20:54It's not just a he.

20:55Let him do that.

20:56You should let him do that.

20:57Woo-hoo-hoo!

20:59Amazing!

21:00And the puppet from Dallas, Texas,

21:03weighing in at 205 pounds, Mike Cunningham!

21:08Woo!

21:09Well, we met Mike Cunningham last week, and as he told us,

21:12he's had the pleasure of training under the American nightmare, Cody Rhodes.

21:19And now tonight, his evolved debut against the veteran Brooks Jensen.

21:24Let me just tell you this.

21:25If you have one-eighth of the discipline, the drive, the work ethic of a Cody Rhodes,

21:33and he puts a stamp on you and says you may be the guy in the future,

21:37this guy's gonna be great.

21:39One-eighth!

21:40It's a very good point to have the interest and respect even of Cody Rhodes

21:45at such a young age says a lot about Mike Cunningham.

21:49So let's see, Robert Stone.

21:50Let's see what this kid's made of.

21:51Right here, a few things to keep in mind.

21:53Mike Cunningham, the main man, Mike Cunningham,

21:56his debut match in professional wrestling was on September 15th, 2024.

22:03That's a little over a year ago.

22:04Wow.

22:05A little over a year, and he is already in a WWE Evolved ring,

22:09which, wow, what an accomplishment.

22:12But is he ready for someone like Brooks Jensen?

22:15He's a young veteran.

22:16This is straight up a rookie versus vet kind of match.

22:19Is there any advantage to almost having so little experience

22:25that you don't even know how big a deal this is?

22:28I mean, you're gonna learn after the match no matter what.

22:31Anyone who's a student of the game learns after the match, but come on.

22:35One year, you're in this position?

22:38I mean, it took me over 10 years to get a big opportunity.

22:41If I was here at one year in, oh, my God, I'd be too nervous to perform.

22:45Oh, he's not nervous to perform.

22:49Mike Cunningham out of the gate showing some athleticism and some basic know-how here.

22:56I guess the big thing I'm looking for is, okay, you're in here.

22:59He's off to a great start.

23:00The guy's in great shape.

23:01I was gonna say, admit it, he's jacked.

23:03But we said he is a rookie.

23:05I mean, it is a fact.

23:06Is there gonna be a rookie mistake at some point?

23:08That's what I'm looking for.

23:09And I'm sure that's what Brooks Jensen is looking for as he dumps Mike Cunningham on his back.

23:14That didn't look fun.

23:16But there you see some of the strength from Cunningham.

23:21Well, the rookie's fighting for her name and the veteran is fighting to protect his.

23:26Believe me, Brooks Jensen does not wanna be embarrassed by someone only a year in.

23:30Wow, Cunningham now showing some of the athleticism.

23:34But taken down by some of the power of Brooks Jensen, who is not a man who's scared of anything.

23:41He's showing that.

23:42Wow!

23:43Look at the ups from Mike Cunningham.

23:45And a pinball.

23:46Jensen kicks out at two.

23:49One more!

23:51One more!

23:52Well, clearly, he's an athletic guy.

23:53He's a charismatic guy.

23:55But the second dropkick didn't work.

23:57And that might have been the rookie mistake.

23:59He hit him with one.

24:00Should he have went for a second?

24:01Neckbreaker there from Jensen.

24:03You gotta say, the abs.

24:05Shades of Robert Stone.

24:06Yeah, yeah.

24:07He's looking good.

24:08He's looking good.

24:09I said he had a great body.

24:10Would you host him in one of your gyms in the Orlando area?

24:13Anybody could if they buy a day pass.

24:15Come on, Mike!

24:18Jensen now.

24:21And now Brooks is gonna do what he does best.

24:23He hit him with that neckbreaker, and now he's gonna focus on his neck.

24:27Yeah, but hold on.

24:28Returning fire is Mike Cunningham.

24:30But right back to it!

24:31Another neckbreaker there from Jensen.

24:33He'll go for a pinfall, try to take out the rookie who kicks out at one.

24:37Brooks Jensen has old-school grit with a new-school grind, and right now he is feeling it.

24:43This is his wheelhouse.

24:44He has Cunningham right where he wants him.

24:47Wow!

24:48A lot of power behind Jensen as he whips Cunningham into the corner.

24:53Come on, Mike!

24:54And now, Mike Cunningham may be having his own American nightmare.

24:58Bringing him into that turnbuckle.

25:01Definitely some whiplash adding to the neck pain.

25:05Brooks Jensen's just toying with him at this point.

25:07He said it himself.

25:08In all seriousness, Stone, after one year in your career, where were you having matches?

25:13All over the Northeast.

25:15I'm guessing in front of about 50 people and no television in sight.

25:18This is a high-pressure spot to jump into.

25:21It's what I said, a thousand percent.

25:23I agree with that.

25:24He said it.

25:25I mean, he's got 50 if that matches under his belt.

25:29What an unbelievable timeline for young Mike Cunningham.

25:33And now Jensen's gonna go for another pin.

25:35Decides not to hook the leg, pays the price.

25:38The kid kicks out.

25:39Last week, we met new WWE ID prospects.

25:44Eli Knight, Jaquan McNair, along with Mike Cunningham.

25:48And you know what?

25:49They were taking up the ring in some maybe interview time that Brooks Jensen could have been having.

25:53Well, when Jensen called all three out, the one who stepped up was Mike Cunningham.

25:57And that's why he has this match.

25:59Pinfall and a kick out at two.

26:01And on the kick out, he sends Jensen right to the bottom turnbuckle.

26:04I think right now, Brooks is seeing stars.

26:06I don't even know if he meant to do that, Cunningham.

26:08But he has an opening here.

26:10Jensen finds his way to his feet, but he's dazed.

26:14However, so is Cunningham.

26:16As both men exchange blows in the middle of the ring.

26:19Both these guys are out on their feet a bit.

26:23Seems like Cunningham now finding his wits about him and his footing faster than Jensen.

26:29Clothesline takes Jensen down.

26:31Can Mike Cunningham put Brooks Jensen away?

26:34Caught him!

26:37Flying clothesline for Mike Cunningham.

26:40I'm sure Cody Rhodes watching at home is impressed.

26:45He's making the Nightmare Factory proud, I'll tell you that much.

26:48What is Cunningham having store here?

26:53As he's heading to the top.

26:55My, look at the ups from Mike Cunningham.

27:01He goes out the lasso launcher.

27:03Is it enough?

27:04Jensen kicking out at the last second.

27:08Could you imagine if he would have just pinned Brooks Jensen in his debut here and now?

27:14And by the way, can you imagine the embarrassment for Jensen,

27:16who started this whole thing last week?

27:18Wait, wait, wait.

27:19And Jensen tries to get a pin to reverse Mike Cunningham now.

27:21And Jensen kicks out of that.

27:24Jensen misses with the clothesline.

27:26No.

27:27Although that mistake may cost Mike Cunningham, and it does.

27:32Here is your winner, Brooks Jensen.

27:41That was absolutely an impressive performance from the youngster Mike Cunningham.

27:46But Stone, he got a little cocky and he made a mistake.

27:50And the veteran presence there of Brooks Jensen, he takes advantage.

27:53This is what Evolve is all about.

27:56A young, gritty rookie looking to make a statement.

27:59He was going for the cowboy cutter, but it was the bad man from Alabama

28:05who quickly turned Cunningham's debut into a nightmare,

28:09crushing him with this devastating victory.

28:12Absolutely great matchup between Mike Cunningham and Brooks Jensen.

28:16Going from the rugged, no-frills bad man from Alabama

28:20to someone that I would say is the complete opposite.

28:23Let's get a closer look at the eccentric, Aaron Moore.

28:26I'm Aaron Roark, and I'm the dying piece.

28:31But I didn't always feel like that.

28:35I've always felt like others have defined me by their own perception of me.

28:40But all that changed when I went to Creative Pro for my wrestling school.

28:45They wanted to know that I was going to work hard, and I did.

28:48I gave them everything, and I still give my everything.

28:54For the first time, I felt like I could finally show my younger self

28:58that someone like you can make it.

29:00All those things those people told you to hide, let them thrive.

29:04That's what makes you, you.

29:06I can say that I am here, and I have earned this.

29:11Don't let the face, the outfit, the makeup, don't let that distract you.

29:16Just as I am opulent and flamboyant, I am just as ruthless, aggressive, and evil.

29:23But we have now heard Aaron Roark's life story, and what a way to end up here in Evolve.

29:31But Wendy Chu has also recently been sharing more of herself,

29:34but it's not quite being perceived the same way by all the women's locker rooms.

29:38The showstopping diva Chantal Monroe goes one-on-one with Wendy Chu next.

29:43Two rings surrounded by a steel cage!

30:00You wanna play games?

30:02We're gonna play games!

30:04Oh my god, are you kidding me?!

30:09This is gonna be a war!

30:17Callie Armstrong!

30:19She has been the most dominant force since WWE Evolve started.

30:24The way to defeat is a heavy sound.

30:34I'm fast?

30:35Let's go!

30:36I'm strong?

30:37I'm dominant?

30:40I'm different.

30:41Callie Armstrong ain't done.

30:43I'm gonna keep coming back, cause I'm the difference maker.

30:46Yeah.

30:51Yo, Stevie.

30:52Hello.

30:53Phone down.

30:54Listen, I should not have to face Keanu Carver at all.

30:56Guy's an absolute maniac.

30:58He tried to cost me my title at succession, got checked for it.

31:01So I need to know something.

31:03How long are you gonna suspend him for that?

31:05Okay?

31:06Second thing I didn't know-

31:07Well, Jackson, I was actually thinking, I'm not gonna suspend Keanu.

31:10Typical woman.

31:11Okay.

31:12I don't know if you remember Jackson, I don't know how good your memory is or anything, but

31:15he, Keanu, actually won a number one contenders match for that championship.

31:20But then your little vanity project, they came out and they-

31:22Little vanity project.

31:23They broke his hand, didn't they?

31:24Okay, so here's the thing.

31:27They broke his hand.

31:28I literally didn't break anybody's hand.

31:30That wasn't me.

31:31That literally wasn't me, bro.

31:33Very professional.

31:34Jackson, you celebrated it.

31:36Jackson Drake, you are the men's Evolve champion.

31:39So I'm gonna give you one of two options.

31:41You either defend your championship against Keanu Carver-

31:43That sucks.

31:44Or you give it to me right now.

31:46Even worse.

31:47Even worse.

31:48Stevie, you're telling me that you're genuinely willing to let the greatest Evolve champion

31:55in this company's history just walk away from all of this right now?

32:00You're even crazier than he is.

32:02I hope you know that.

32:04Jackson, face Keanu or vacate the title.

32:08It's your choice.

32:09It's my choice.

32:10It's my choice.

32:11Mm-hmm.

32:12You know what I choose to do?

32:13Oh, yeah.

32:14I choose to bite my tongue.

32:16Wow.

32:19That's a first.

32:21Heard that.

32:24Stevie Turner continuing to keep the pressure on and certainly not putting up with his nonsense

32:29for Jackson Drake and the vanity project.

32:34There's your girl, Robert Stone.

32:36I really hope Jackson Drake isn't going to do what Stevie Turner is trying to make him

32:39do and vacate the title.

32:41However, I'm going to take my mind off her right now and focus.

32:44Get your mirror out, Peter.

32:45Take it out.

32:46Come on.

32:47All right, all right.

32:48I gave you one three weeks ago.

32:49I got it.

32:50I brought it.

32:51Take the mirror out.

32:52Everybody's got their mirrors out because it's main event time, which means it's the

32:54SSD, the it girl, the reflection of perfection.

32:57She is here.

32:58Shot tail Monroe.

32:59Shot tail Monroe.

33:00And what does SSD stand for?

33:02The show stop a diva.

33:03Duh.

33:04We're past that.

33:05We're on letters now.

33:06You've moved on to letters of shot tail.

33:08I've done both.

33:09But I mean, now everybody knows it's all about the letters.

33:12The sleepy psycho is here.

33:23And you know what?

33:25That moniker is not exactly apropos in the same way.

33:30You've seen the work she's doing in therapy.

33:32Now listen, she's still Wendy Chu.

33:34You never know what to expect, Stone.

33:36But I've been impressed with the new lease being turned over by Wendy Chu.

33:40How are you impressed by this?

33:42This is, let me just remind you of something, okay?

33:45This is someone who says they're going to therapy, right?

33:49I guess they are.

33:50But is it all just a ploy?

33:51Is it all just a fraud?

33:52Because remember, Wendy Chu is all about mind games.

33:55Is this whole new thing with her speaking?

33:58And I don't know, maybe, I don't know, she's trying to make friends.

34:01Whatever it is that she's doing, is it all fake?

34:03Is it all her setting up for her next victim?

34:05I don't think so.

34:06Maybe she's been influenced.

34:07Really?

34:08You trust her?

34:09Why not?

34:10Everyone's allowed to change.

34:11If you listen to anything A.J. Lee's been saying, mental health's very important.

34:16I think Wendy Chu got the message.

34:18Wendy!

34:19Come down!

34:20Wendy!

34:21Come down!

34:22Wendy!

34:23Come down!

34:24The following contest is your main event, and it is scheduled for one fall.

34:29One fall!

34:30Introducing first, from Sarasota, Florida, Chantel Monroe!

34:40And her opponent, from the city that never sleeps, Wendy Chu!

34:47See?

34:48She looks completely normal to me.

34:50Wendy Chu has a whole new look and feel.

34:53There's a new vibe.

34:55As the kids say, Stone, the aura is different with Wendy Chu.

34:58You know what I'm saying?

34:59Are you trying to say she has Riz?

35:01Riz is dead.

35:02Ever since she lost the I Quit match to Kendall Gray, and now she's spoken, now she's talking

35:08more.

35:09Yes.

35:10Am I off here saying I feel like she's crazier than ever?

35:14No, I think you're way off here.

35:16I think she still has the competitive edge she's always had.

35:20But I think Wendy Chu is evolving, pun intended, in front of our very eyes.

35:25Now, on the flip side though, Chantel Monroe has been evolving as a competitor in the ring,

35:29hasn't she?

35:30Chantel Monroe is excellent in the ring.

35:34She has proved that for the past few months here.

35:36But I just can't, my head can't get wrapped around before we get into the SSD just that

35:42you actually believe that this whole Wendy Chu thing is real.

35:45Who has ever went to therapy and came out of it a better person?

35:49Therapy doesn't work.

35:50My wife wants me to go to therapy.

35:52Therapy doesn't work.

35:53You should listen to her and go to therapy.

35:57I'm a big proponent myself.

36:01Right now, Chantel Monroe is going to strength and trying to outstrong Wendy Chu.

36:08I don't know if that's the route I would go if I was Chantel Monroe.

36:13Look at the sneaky athleticism from Wendy Chu.

36:16Well, she's excellent in the ring.

36:19Her speed is like no other.

36:20But I mean, trying to make friendships all of a sudden is like a puzzle trying to fit in the wrong box.

36:26It's just never going to happen.

36:28Who is going to sit there and say, oh yeah, I'm going to be friends with Wendy Chu.

36:31Are you going to take her home to meet your parents?

36:33Hey, this is my friend Wendy.

36:35Well, you're still talking about the whole pinfall.

36:38No.

36:39In fact, a submission sort of hold or just a choke of sorts.

36:43Chantel Monroe utilizing her thighs, sort of knee region there, clenched around the neck of Wendy Chu.

36:49You're so judgmental about Wendy Chu.

36:52This is not the same sleepy psycho.

36:55Oh, man.

36:56Oh, Wendy Chu, my games.

36:58Exactly.

36:59She's mocking the SSD.

37:00I love it.

37:01I don't blame Chantel for just being weirded out by her not wanting her around the locker room.

37:05She's trying to protect the women's locker room.

37:07I don't think the rest of the women's locker room feels that way.

37:10I think a lot of people have been impressed with Wendy's work.

37:12This is someone who used to say she's not afraid of the dark because she is the darkness.

37:16Yeah, I remember.

37:17You used to quote that.

37:18You loved it.

37:19I didn't love it.

37:20I said it because I was scared of her.

37:22And frankly, I'm still scared of her.

37:24I mean, I'm seeing people online now on X say kind of creepy, kind of cute about Wendy.

37:29Like they're into this.

37:30Wait.

37:31She's into this pin.

37:32Innovative pin there from Wendy Chu.

37:33Kind of creepy, kind of cute.

37:34Yeah, I've seen it.

37:35That's a thing?

37:36I guess.

37:37Wendy Chu with a battery in her back here tonight.

37:45In our main event.

37:46She has been such a stalwart here on Evolve.

37:49Week after week.

37:50Seems like she's always in the middle of something in the women's division.

37:53She always has effective offense.

37:56And that's exactly what she's displaying right now.

37:58On to Chantel Monroe.

38:00Oof.

38:01Nice kick from Chantel.

38:02Uh-oh.

38:03Oh.

38:04Oh, man.

38:06But now this is that aggressive side I was talking about that we've seen the past few months come out of Chantel.

38:13She's classy on the surface, but savage at the core.

38:16Don't forget Chantel Monroe had her issues with Kylie Rae.

38:20Now her issues with another ring veteran, Wendy Chu.

38:23Seems like she wants to go after one vet after another to prove herself, which I have to admit is impressive.

38:29Hey, it's Chantel's world and we're just living in it.

38:33Wow.

38:34More of the innovation of Wendy Chu.

38:39She does so many things well.

38:42Oh, man.

38:44All with a straight face.

38:46The facial expression on Wendy just doesn't change.

38:49The makeup has changed, but the innovation has not.

38:54And we got a smile out of her.

38:56I admit that that smile was a little scary.

38:59But that's the competitive edge I talked about earlier with Wendy Chu.

39:04Wait a minute.

39:07Watch out, that neck breaker to the rope.

39:11More of our main event between Wendy Chu and Chantel Monroe next on Evolve.

39:17Welcome, everyone, to the biggest event of the summer.

39:25For more than 35 years, SummerSlam has delivered some of the most amazing moments in WWE history.

39:32I am completely in shock right now.

39:36And in 2026, we'll once again make history.

39:40Fasten your seatbelts.

39:42It is about to go down.

39:44Let's go!

39:46Saturday, August 1st and Sunday, August 2nd, 2026 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

39:53Live from the world-class U.S. Bank Stadium, WWE will bring two epic nights of SummerSlam to the Twin Cities.

40:05So there's only one question to ask.

40:08Are you ready?

40:16Welcome back to our main event, Chantel Monroe, the SSD, and the sleepy psycho, Wendy Chu.

40:23Another neck breaker.

40:25She has really been focusing in on Wendy's neck.

40:28It has been all the SSD with perfection.

40:37During the break, Chantel Monroe taking control of this match and trying to put away Wendy Chu.

40:44How much would this win mean for Chantel Monroe?

40:46Oh, over a veteran like Wendy?

40:48In the main event, no less.

40:49Think about adding that to your statistics.

40:52Beating a veteran like Wendy Chu.

40:54Someone who's been on PLEs.

40:56Someone who has been around in professional wrestling for a long time, in the WWE for a long time.

41:01And of course, she's done so much here in Evolve.

41:05As Chantel looking to pin, can't quite get a hold of Wendy Chu in time.

41:10Don't forget, Wendy Chu was involved in that first Fatal 4-Way when Callie Armstrong won the title.

41:14She was involved in the first ever iCrit match here on Evolve.

41:19Has a lot of street cred here.

41:21But right now, she is in a bad, bad way.

41:24Locked in between Chantel Monroe's legs.

41:27And you know, Chantel's doing this all with her three Ps.

41:30Prim, Proper, and Prissy.

41:33You love that, don't you?

41:34Hey, it's a way of life for her.

41:38Chantel Monroe, very creative herself.

41:41See, Chantel may be stunning on the outside, but she's got a real creative cunning side

41:46that goes a long way in competing here on Evolve.

41:50And now Chantel Monroe, now using her legs, but it turns into a pin for Wendy Chu.

41:55We've got a heck of a main event here in Stone.

41:58We are still wondering about future main events, especially in regard to the men's championship.

42:04We are still waiting to find out if Jackson Drake is gonna do what Stevie Turner wants him to do

42:09and vacate the Evolve championship or defend it against Keanu Carver.

42:13Double clothesline leaves both women down on the mat.

42:16As you're taking a look at Wendy Chu and Chantel Monroe in our main event here on Evolve.

42:21Back and forth between both ladies.

42:24Power behind both punches.

42:26Now Wendy going to a brutal kick to the body.

42:29Both of these superstars are in pain right now, but they're digging deep.

42:33This is the main event of Evolve on a Wednesday.

42:37Who is gonna come through?

42:39And as I said earlier, Wendy Chu been involved in so much on Evolve so far.

42:45And Chantel Monroe has been steadily growing here.

42:48Triple reversal.

42:50Spine Buster!

42:52Could the Spine Buster be enough?

42:54Monroe kicking out at two.

42:56What is Wendy thinking?

43:00Look at that face.

43:01Look at those eyes.

43:03What move is she gonna make next?

43:06The SSD has been showing people she's got a lot more than just the PPP you just referred to.

43:14She's got skills in the ring, but right now a pinfall for Wendy Chu and a reversal for Chantel in a two count.

43:20Wait a minute.

43:21Another pin for Wendy Chu.

43:22Is that enough?

43:23Here's her tight pins.

43:24Kick to the gut.

43:26What's Wendy going for next?

43:27Looks like a suplex.

43:28And it is.

43:29Brain Buster.

43:30Let's go two, one.

43:33Pinfall.

43:34Is this it?

43:35Kick out at two for Chantel Monroe.

43:38She got out at the absolute latest possible.

43:42Mila eighth, sixteenth of a second there.

43:46Both of these women of course seeing what Kendall Gray did in succession a few weeks back.

43:52And they want to get in the title picture.

43:54Right, she's got her hooked in that full Nelson.

43:56We've seen her do that slam before.

43:58That's a pin.

43:59And a kick out from Chantel Monroe.

44:01Man.

44:02Monroe caught with that punch to the throat area, back elbow.

44:07Come on, Chu.

44:08Yeah.

44:09Backs off Wendy Chu.

44:11What's Chantel looking to do here from the second rope?

44:13Man.

44:15Inverted neck breaker.

44:17It's like a tornado inverted DDT.

44:19Woo!

44:20Another pinfall, close call as both ladies go back and forth in our main event.

44:27That was right back to Wendy's neck and you can see her holding on to it.

44:31What's Chantel looking to do?

44:32Well, it doesn't matter.

44:33She's not gonna be able to.

44:34Wendy sends her into the corner.

44:36Man, there's power behind every kick and every punch from these two.

44:43Uh-oh.

44:44Wait.

44:45Is she going for it?

44:46Wendy's looking for dirt now.

44:47She's got her.

44:49Is it locked in?

44:51It's reversed into a pin.

44:53And Wendy kicks out.

44:55Man.

44:56What a super kick from Chantel.

44:59And now she's got Wendy up.

45:02That could be it.

45:05Chantel Monroe's got Wendy Chu prone.

45:08But she took too long and comes up short.

45:11And now it's gonna be dirt now.

45:13I guarantee it.

45:14She tried to use her gymnastics background for that shooting star.

45:18But got caught.

45:19Oh, wait a minute.

45:20Oh, Chantel.

45:21I think Wendy just got caught on her throat.

45:23And there's a perfect ending.

45:24Chantel managed to evade the dirt now.

45:27The perfect ending and the win.

45:30Here is your winner, Chantel Monroe.

45:34Wow, man.

45:36Are you kidding me?

45:38It looked as if Wendy Chu surely would lock in the dirt nap,

45:42which would have meant night night for Chantel Monroe.

45:46But again, she uses the rope to reverse into the perfect ending,

45:50and Chantel Monroe gets the win.

45:52Well, let's go back to the action in this one.

45:55We've been seeing such a different side from Wendy Chu lately.

45:58But in the ring, she still brought her classic innovation.

46:02And even though it seemed victory was in her sights,

46:04the reflection of perfection was able to turn the tide

46:08and show just why they call her the show Stopping Diva,

46:10with a hard-fought victory over a battle-tested Wendy Chu.

46:14Sky's the limit for Chantel Monroe.

46:17So come and touch my attention.

46:21You freak, you stupid freak.

46:23Go back to there.

46:24This is my ring.

46:25You freak, you freak.

46:27Get this freak out of my ring.

46:29This is my ring.

46:31Get her out of this ring.

46:33Get her out of this ring.

46:34Get her out of this ring.

46:35My ring.

46:37The disrespect from Chantel Monroe toward a veteran like Wendy Chu is outrageous.

46:42But hold on.

46:43I'm being told there's a developing situation backstage.

46:45Let's check in with our PM, Stevie Turner, in her office.

46:48Look who's sitting in the exact same spot.

46:53Oh, great.

46:54So, have you made your decision yet, Chant?

46:56You know what?

46:57Let me just say, for the record, of course,

47:00as general manager, not prime minister, general manager,

47:05to put your champion in a predicament like this,

47:08basically risk my career or give up my title,

47:11is super not cool.

47:13Super not cool.

47:14But, as we all know,

47:16there's a reason why Heartbreak Drake is the first ever WWE Evolve Men's Champion.

47:22Because nobody else is deserving or capable of carrying the ball.

47:27So you want to send that maniac Keanu Carver after me?

47:29Fine.

47:30Whatever.

47:31He's reckless and he's a danger to the entire brand.

47:34But somebody has to put him down.

47:36And it might as well be your franchise player.

47:39So make the match, Stevie.

47:42Everyone knows the title's staying on Jackson Drake.

47:45Wow, you heard it right from the champ himself.

47:50Heartbreak Drake is putting the Evolve Championship on the line against the unfiltered force, Keanu Carver.

47:56Cleared to compete with that cast on his broken wrist.

47:59Carver, who pinned the champ just two weeks ago, finally gets his first single shot at the title.

48:04It's one of the most anticipated matchups of the year.

48:07And it all happens next week on WWE Evolve.
