00:07Then, now, forever, together,
00:58Now, forever, together, together,
00:59On Evolve.
01:00Oh, is that my guy?
01:02Stone is back.
01:04Ladies and gentlemen,
01:06This right here around the ring
01:08Is the future of the WWE.
01:13And look, we all know
01:15Evolve has been built on ambition,
01:18Has been built on want,
01:20But it needs authority.
01:22So myself and Shawn Michaels,
01:24We put our minds together,
01:25And we have come up with the perfect person
01:29To run this place.
01:30So your new Evolve general manager.
01:39Peter, what a shocker.
01:43This is an incredible choice.
01:46The player coach of WWE ID,
01:48Timothy Thatcher.
01:50Someone who laid the foundation for Evolve,
01:52And now he's running the show.
01:54You know what?
01:55I gotta give credit where credit is due.
01:57To Stone, to Shawn Michaels,
01:58This is a great call.
02:00Love Timothy Thatcher.
02:01What a way to kick off the new season
02:03Here on Wednesday nights.
02:05Thatcher dressed up a little bit.
02:07A little bit.
02:08Oh, those are almost slacks.
02:11Look, Tim,
02:12No doubt about it,
02:13You've been a fantastic
02:14WWE ID player, coach,
02:17But I think it's time
02:18We expand your role.
02:19Alright?
02:19So you're gonna be going
02:21All around the world
02:22To scout independent talent,
02:25To help enhance Evolve,
02:27Enhance the ID program,
02:29And that's why you're gonna be
02:29The perfect general manager.
02:37First off, thank you, sir.
02:41I really appreciate
02:43The trust that you
02:44And Mr. Michaels have in me.
02:47And I appreciate everyone
02:48That's around this ring right now.
02:56But I'm no general manager.
03:05Evolve is where the work starts.
03:08Hard work is rewarded here.
03:10So it's more like
03:12A work site.
03:14So I'm not the GM.
03:17I'm the foreman of Evolve.
03:27Well, hey, okay.
03:31So, Tim, then as the foreman
03:34Of Evolve,
03:35You're gonna have to make
03:36Some difficult decisions.
03:37So your first two tasks,
03:40Your Evolve champions,
03:41Kendall Gray,
03:42Jackson Drake,
03:44They're now NXT
03:44Full-time superstars.
03:46Yeah, I understand, sir.
03:48I understand, sir.
03:50Evolve is about building.
03:52Building new talent.
03:54Building new opportunities.
03:55One door closes.
03:57Another one opens.
03:58Right?
04:00So, champions shouldn't just disappear.
04:04They gotta earn their way out.
04:07So I've asked Kendall and Jackson
04:09For one more title defense.
04:12That's gonna be their final evolution.
04:18If they win,
04:20They get to leave as champion.
04:22The title gets vacated.
04:23If they lose,
04:25We got a brand new standard bearer
04:26Here in Evolve.
04:30It's all right, huh?
04:33Kendall Gray's final evolution
04:35Will be tonight.
04:37And it'll be against
04:38The Olympic gold medalist
04:39Tyra May Steele.
04:41Hello!
04:42Talk about a blockbuster.
04:45Talk about a main event.
04:50Next week,
04:52Jackson Drake's final evolution
04:54Will be
04:57Think about it.
04:59Now you're cooking.
05:00Come on.
05:01Think about it.
05:04Well, we know who wants it, Peter.
05:05Well, anytime a title is mentioned.
05:08Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
05:17All of Lewis hears title.
05:19He shows up.
05:19If that clown Jackson Drake
05:21Is having one last match
05:22Here at Evolve,
05:24I want it.
05:25Hey!
05:26Hey!
05:27Hey!
05:28None of this!
05:29None of this!
05:30This isn't going off the rails!
05:32Not on my watch!
05:34Hey!
05:35I already know
05:36Every time the men's title
05:37Gets mentioned
05:38Here you come
05:39Storming out here.
05:41Take him out of here!
05:41I already planned for that.
05:43I got a match for you already.
05:46So,
05:47I think we all
05:48Should clear out of here
05:49Because it's time for Harlem
05:51To get to work!
05:54All right.
05:55Well, Peter the foreman
05:56Already
05:57Making moves here in Evolve.
05:59Yeah, but who is going to be
06:00The final evolution
06:01For Jackson Drake?
06:06So crazy.
06:08One last match
06:09One last title defense
06:11One last time
06:12Representing Evolve
06:13As champion
06:15Evolve gave me a place
06:16To find myself
06:17To find confidence
06:18Inside and outside
06:19Of the ring
06:20And I'll never forget
06:21The ones that have been
06:22Supporting me since day one
06:23Or chanting my name
06:24Since the first time
06:25I came out
06:27This will forever be
06:28My first home
06:29But tonight
06:32Tonight's business
06:34Tyra Maysteel is dangerous
06:35She's an Olympic gold medalist
06:37And when it comes to being
06:38A technical wrestler
06:39She's the only one
06:40That has me beat
06:40But that's fine
06:41Because I don't back down
06:42From any challenges
06:43I thrive under pressure
06:45I thrive when things get hard
06:46It took me months
06:48And months
06:48To get to the top of the mountain
06:49And I'll be damned
06:50If I don't stay on top
06:52Chantel Monroe
06:53Callie Armstrong
06:55Wendy Chu
06:55Carmen Petrovich
06:57You name them
06:58And I've taken them down
06:58And Tyra Maysteel
07:00Is next on my list
07:01So when I get my hand raised
07:03One last time on Evolve
07:04I'm gonna walk into NXT
07:06Full-time
07:07With momentum on my back
07:10It's time to strap up
07:16On Saturday, May 9th
07:17After the biggest weekend
07:19In WWE
07:20What happens at WrestleMania
07:22Doesn't stay there
07:24Sweet, sweet revenge
07:26It follows you
07:28And in Tampa
07:30It hits back
07:33All scores are settled
07:35It's personal
07:37It's backlash
07:50Peter, we're back here on Evolve
07:52And what an opening contest we have
07:54Oh, I'm very, very excited
07:55To see this matchup
07:56With Harlem Lewis
08:00Ho, ho, ho
08:03You talk about a couple of big guys
08:07Getting together
08:11And his opponents
08:12From Akron, Ohio
08:14Weighing in at 285 pounds
08:17Sam Holloway
08:22Certainly the big boy
08:23Of the ID program
08:25And Peter, ever since
08:26He came to Evolve
08:27Sam Holloway
08:28Has certainly made an impact
08:29Whether it's a singles competition
08:30We saw him as a part of Team ID
08:32But now he's got a big test
08:34In front of him
08:34From the man who thinks he is
08:36The number one contender
08:37To the Evolve champion
08:38Well, that's absolutely right, Blake
08:39Harlem Lewis believes
08:41He is the future of Evolve
08:43And if that is true
08:44You have to make your way
08:46By beating competition
08:48Like hard way
08:49Sam Holloway
08:51I gotta tell you
08:52Every time
08:53We're here to call
08:54A Holloway match
08:55I'm nervous
08:55He's gonna crack
08:56Through the table
08:57And kill me
08:58This guy is an incredible athlete
09:00And he's absolutely massive
09:01We've seen some of those dives
09:03Over the top
09:03Certainly brings it
09:04At 285 pounds
09:06Bell sounds
09:07Here we go
09:07And Harlem Lewis
09:08Peter, he's laser focused
09:09On a championship opportunity
09:11Absolutely
09:11And he's trying to go
09:12Right to work
09:12At Sam Holloway
09:13Which is probably the way
09:14You want to approach someone
09:15With this kind of strength
09:16But it could turn out
09:17The wrong way
09:18As Holloway certainly
09:19Wants to make his presence felt
09:20He's looking at a title shot
09:21Of his own
09:21As it's wide open next week
09:23Who's taking on Jackson Drake
09:25In his final evolution
09:26If you've been with us
09:27Since the beginning
09:28You've gotten to see
09:29Some of the best talent
09:30In all of WWE emerge
09:32And now with the vacancy
09:34That will be created
09:35With Jackson Drake
09:36And the Vanity Project
09:38Leaves us
09:38There is an opportunity
09:40For other people
09:41To step into those roles
09:42And we'll certainly see
09:43If Tyra Mae Steele
09:44Can take advantage
09:45Of her opportunity
09:45Tonight against Kendall Gray
09:46As Harlem Lewis
09:47Looking to seize the moment
09:49Right here
09:49And Peter
09:50Ever since Harlem Lewis
09:51Returned to evolve
09:52Just a couple of months ago
09:53It seems like Harlem
09:54Only has one goal
09:55And that's championship goal
09:56Oh my goodness
10:01That is not the way
10:03You want to start things off
10:04Against Sam Holloway
10:05But you've got to give
10:06Harlem Lewis credit
10:07He is writhing
10:08On the outside right now
10:10That hurts to just watch
10:11But you've got to give credit
10:13Where credit is due
10:14He is always bringing it
10:16100% when he's around
10:18He only has one speed
10:19Sam Holloway
10:20Been in the ID program
10:21For about a year and a half
10:22Now and Peter
10:23Since the time we've seen him
10:24How is Holloway impressed
10:26As an ID prospect?
10:28Oh I think Sam Holloway
10:29Absolutely jumps off the page
10:31The first thing you see
10:32Is the size
10:33Right
10:33Look at that
10:34But then it's that
10:35Blake Howard
10:35It's stuff like that
10:36That springboard elbow drop
10:38That athleticism
10:38Into the cover
10:39Only gets two right there
10:41Of course we saw him
10:41In that recent Haas fight
10:42With Drake Moreau here
10:44On Evolve
10:45And Sam Holloway
10:46Really started to impress
10:46Proving he might be
10:47The big man
10:48In the ID program
10:49Absolutely
10:50He could absolutely
10:51Be the most impressive
10:52Big man
10:53At least now
10:54That Keanu Carver
10:55Is in the ranks of NXT
10:56And of course right now
10:58Sam Holloway
10:58Looking to get the brand new
10:59Foreman of Evolve
11:00Timothy Thatcher
11:01Looking to get his attention
11:02Right now
11:03As Harlem Lewis
11:04Looking to do the same here
11:05Harlem Lewis
11:06Gets flattened
11:07With the big boot
11:07Is Holloway
11:08Starting to cook here Peter
11:09And you see the ups
11:10From Holloway
11:11That leapfrog
11:11You don't usually see it
11:12From someone of his size
11:13By the way Blake
11:14What do you think
11:14Of the term foreman
11:16Instead of GM
11:16You like it?
11:17It's certainly
11:17An interesting twist
11:18But if anyone's
11:19A little bit out of the box
11:20It's Timothy Thatcher
11:21Absolutely
11:21He is the perfect person
11:23To guide the young talent
11:24Of Evolve
11:25Always love seeing that guy
11:27As you see Sam Holloway
11:28Going to work
11:29Using those long legs
11:31To punish Harlem Lewis
11:33That big extension there
11:34By Sam Holloway
11:37As right now
11:38Harlem Lewis
11:39Pounding away
11:40Of course
11:41Harlem Lewis
11:41Cut off a big win
11:42At succession
11:42Over Brooks Jensen
11:43Trying to build that momentum
11:44And a shotgun drop kick
11:46Out of the corner
11:47By Holloway
11:47Peter can he capitalize?
11:48Well Harlem Lewis
11:49I'll tell you what
11:50Here we go
11:50Into the cover
11:51Stacks him up
11:52Only gets two
11:53Imagine if Harlem Lewis
11:54Could stack wins
11:55Against Brooks Jensen
11:57And also Sam Holloway
12:00It would certainly
12:00Be very tough
12:01For Foreman Thatcher
12:02Not to make Harlem Lewis
12:03The final evolution
12:04Of Jackson Drake
12:05Next week
12:05That's exactly
12:06What everyone
12:07Is competing for
12:08Jackson Drake's
12:10Final match
12:11In Evolve
12:12Say what you want
12:13About the Vanity Project
12:14Drake has been
12:14A great
12:15And fighting champion
12:16Who gets to be
12:18That final evolution
12:19What an opportunity
12:20And of course
12:21We talk about
12:21Off succession
12:22Of course
12:22This past weekend
12:23Vengeance Day
12:24For NXT
12:24A lot bubbling
12:25Right now
12:25On the road
12:26To Wrestlemania
12:28Absolutely right
12:29You know all these
12:29Guys are seeing
12:30What's happening
12:31For the Vanity Project
12:33In NXT
12:34What's happening
12:34For Kendall Gray
12:36In NXT
12:36For Keanu Carver
12:37Indeed
12:38Great motivation
12:39For all of our
12:40Young talent
12:40Here in Evolve
12:41You can see
12:41They take that step
12:42To the next level
12:43As Sam Holloway
12:44Looking to take
12:44His game to the next level
12:45Harlem Lewis
12:46Fighting him off
12:47Right here
12:47Creates a bit
12:47Of separation
12:48And drives that elbow
12:50Right in the back
12:50Of the neck
12:51But Peter can
12:51Harlem capitalize
12:52Well you know
12:52I've been talking
12:53A lot Blake
12:53About the athleticism
12:54Of Sam Holloway
12:55I do not want
12:56To shortchange
12:56Harlem Lewis
12:57A great athlete
12:58Who is jacked up
12:59In his own right
12:59I don't know
13:00If you can suplex
13:01Sam Holloway
13:01A former linebacker
13:03In the Italian
13:03Football League
13:04And a gourd buster
13:05There by Holloway
13:07As Holloway
13:08Looking to zero in
13:08Right now
13:09Man I really enjoy
13:11The work of Sam Holloway
13:12Of course
13:13Harlem Lewis
13:13Came out
13:14To start off the show
13:15Trying to make
13:16His presence spelled
13:16Timothy Thatcher
13:17Put him right
13:17In this position
13:18There's the Urinagi
13:19Center of the ring
13:20Hooks the outside leg
13:21And Harlem
13:23Somehow able
13:24To hang on
13:27And for Sam Holloway
13:28We talk about
13:28What a win like this
13:29Would mean
13:30For Harlem Lewis
13:31But for Holloway
13:31As well
13:32He's been impressive
13:33He's gotten a lot
13:34Of attention
13:34But he needs
13:35Signature wins
13:36And that's what
13:37This would be
13:38Right now
13:38Against Harlem Lewis
13:39To start our night
13:40Off on Tubi
13:41As Holloway
13:42And Lewis
13:43Back and forth
13:43Here another big night
13:44Another big Wednesday
13:45On Tubi indeed
13:46As these two
13:47Jockeying for position
13:48Right now
13:48And Harlem Lewis
13:50Looking to take
13:51Full advantage
13:52Look at the power
13:52Here Peter
13:53Yeah there's the
13:53Strength of Harlem
13:54Lewis
13:54But Sam Holloway
13:55Savvy
13:56Oh
13:57Double underhook
13:58Suplex right
13:59Into the corner
14:01This is a hell of a way
14:03To start things off
14:04Blake
14:04Here we go
14:05Hooks that inside leg
14:07And look at the
14:07Resourcefulness there
14:09Of Harlem Lewis
14:09Putting his foot on the rope
14:10Peter that just saved him
14:11Absolutely
14:12No Harlem Lewis
14:13Knows what he's doing man
14:14Listen I know some people
14:15Get frustrated
14:16Because Harlem Lewis
14:17Is so aggressive
14:18Whenever the titles
14:19Mentioned
14:19He shows up
14:20He's demanding
14:21But I'll tell you what
14:23Opportunities
14:23Sometimes are taken
14:24Not given
14:25And Harlem Lewis
14:26Understands that
14:27And Holloway
14:28Looking to seize the moment
14:29Right here
14:29Center of the ring
14:31With the big guzzle
14:32Up
14:32Oh and Lewis
14:33What a counter there
14:35Peter
14:35Wow
14:36How is Holloway
14:37Still standing
14:38He's not
14:39And a vicious Larry
14:40To the back of the neck
14:41Harlem Lewis
14:42Looking to take things
14:43To the next level
14:44We know about his power
14:45And strength
14:47As Harlem
14:49He's zeroed in
14:50On that evolved
14:50Championship
14:51He wants that opportunity
14:52Next week
14:53Against Jackson Drake
14:54There it is
14:56Up and down
14:57With the boob slay
14:58And Harlem Lewis
15:00Picks up the win
15:01Here is her winner
15:03Harlem
15:05Lewis
15:07Wow
15:08I didn't know
15:09If Harlem Lewis
15:10Could get the boob slay
15:12Done against a man
15:13The size of Sam Holloway
15:15And you see
15:16Blake Howard
15:16Harlem Lewis
15:17Saying I want that
15:19Championship opportunity
15:21Alright let's take a look
15:22Back here
15:23It was fast
15:24Hard hitting action
15:25Throughout Sam Holloway
15:26Jumping out early on
15:28Showing domination
15:29That massive presence
15:31That massive presence
15:31Being felt
15:31But as things go on
15:33Time passes
15:34Harlem Lewis
15:35Cannot be stopped
15:36And there it is
15:37The boob slay
15:38And the dub
15:39For Harlem Lewis
15:40You have to be wondering
15:41Peter
15:42Are we looking
15:42At the next
15:44Evolved champion
15:45And now
15:46Let's take a look
15:47At the latest evolution
15:48Of this superstar
15:57Evolved
15:57Do you feel that
15:59Do you feel
15:59That bass in your chest
16:01That spark
16:01That's in the air
16:02Will get ready
16:03Because Luca Crucifino
16:05Is arriving
16:06And when that beat drops
16:09I'm tripping
16:10Through the lights
16:11I'm rolling
16:13With the rhythm
16:14And I'm cruising
16:15Right to the peak
16:17Here at WWE Evolved
16:19And just because
16:21I'm vibing
16:22Just because
16:23I'm smiling
16:24Just because I move
16:25The way that I do
16:26Does not mean
16:28That I'm not dangerous
16:31I've been through
16:32The silence
16:33I found my inner self
16:36And I figured it out
16:38That when Luca Crucifino
16:40Is vibing
16:41On the frequency
16:42Of love
16:43Fluidity
16:44And fun
16:44Is when he has
16:45His most
16:46Effect
16:48On this mode
16:49Nothing can fracture
16:51My inner peace
16:52Or kill my vibe
16:53My opponents
16:54Start seeing colors
16:55That they didn't even
16:56Know existed
16:57I live for the drop
17:00And I thrive
17:00Off the energy
17:01Of the big moments
17:02I relish
17:04In the euphoria
17:05Of the crowds
17:05And when Cruz
17:07Begins to rise
17:08All my opponents
17:09Heads
17:09Begin to spin
17:11And I'm ready
17:12To make evolve
17:13Revolve
17:15Around Luca
17:16Crucifino
17:23This April
17:24Live from Las Vegas
17:26The best in the world
17:29CM Punk
17:30I'm the champ
17:31And I call the shots
17:32Versus the original
17:33Tribal Chief
17:34Roman Reigns
17:36Two of the biggest stars
17:37For the world
17:38Heavyweight championship
17:40The greatness
17:41Demands an answer
17:43You will
17:45Acknowledge me
17:48Wrestlemania
17:56Yes, finally
17:58I have been waiting
18:00For this moment
18:00And now
18:02I finally get my
18:04First ever championship match
18:06Here in WWE
18:08Kendall
18:09You walked into this locker room
18:12As an undefeated
18:14Amateur wrestling champion
18:15Heck, you've defeated
18:17Every single person
18:19That stepped up to you
18:20Here in Evolve
18:22But you've never gone
18:24Against an Olympic gold medalist
18:27And we both know
18:28That the mat and ring
18:30Are two separate things
18:32But when that bell rings
18:33It doesn't matter
18:35What matters is
18:37Whoever gets that
18:39One
18:39Two
18:40Three
18:41Now
18:42I know that you're moving on
18:44Kendall
18:45And
18:46This is going to be
18:47Your final evolution
18:48Win or lose
18:50But me
18:52I
18:53I can't afford
18:55To lose
18:57And I won't
18:59Be satisfied
19:00Until my name
19:02Is etched
19:03In the history books
19:04As the women's
19:05Evolve
19:06Champion
19:07The following contest
19:19Is scheduled for
19:21One fall
19:21Introducing first
19:23From Sardon, Ohio
19:25Weight 232 pounds
19:28Harley
19:31Riggins
19:32Well Peter
19:33As we just heard
19:34We're certainly in
19:34For a major collision course
19:36For the Evolve
19:36Women's Championship
19:37In our main event
19:38But we're looking at
19:39Two guys right now
19:40Who haven't made
19:41Too many other friends
19:42Around the Performance Center
19:43In recent weeks
19:44They made clear
19:45When they brutally
19:46Attacked Tate Wilder
19:47Last week in the
19:47BC parking lot
19:48And now
19:49With Tate Wilder
19:50Clearly hunting
19:51Cam and Harley
19:52We just got word
19:53From our new
19:53Evolve foreman
19:54That Tate has been
19:55Escorted out of the building
19:56Because he's not
19:57Medically cleared
19:58To appear
19:59And that's why
20:00Cam and Harley
20:00Believe
20:01They're the two
20:02Biggest badasses
20:03In Evolve
20:04And they're out
20:04To prove it right now
20:05And we know
20:06Presley's sideline
20:06Due to weightlifting injury
20:07Now Harley
20:08Riggins in here
20:09Is a singles competitor
20:09But he's got his
20:11Boy with him
20:11And Cam Hendricks
20:12And we'll see
20:13If he can be up
20:14For this competition
20:15Oh man
20:19And his opponent
20:20From Yonkers
20:22New York
20:22Weighing in
20:23At 211 pounds
20:26Trill London
20:28The Electric Enigma
20:30Back here on Evolve
20:31And Peter
20:31He certainly pushed
20:32Dante Chen to the limit
20:33The last time out
20:34As Trill London
20:35Looks to continue to improve
20:36And up his stock
20:37On Wednesday nights
20:39You just used the word
20:41The Electric Enigma
20:42Electric is the word
20:43He to me
20:44Is one of the most exciting
20:45Jump off the page
20:46Superstars we have
20:47In all of WWE
20:49In terms of young
20:49Young talent developing
20:50He truly impresses me
20:52However
20:53He has not caught
20:55A ton of breaks
20:56In terms of the competition
20:57He's had to face
20:58And that continues
20:59With Harley Riggins
21:00Tonight
21:00It's certainly been
21:01An uphill battle
21:02For Trill London
21:02But just like we saw
21:03When he was an NFL
21:04Cornerback
21:05Taking on the top
21:05Wide receivers
21:06Around the world
21:07He's taking on the top
21:08Competition inside the ring
21:09Here
21:09Harley Riggins
21:10Whether you like
21:11His attitude or not
21:12Has certainly proven
21:12To be a difference maker
21:13Since coming to Evolve
21:14Is Harley Riggins
21:16The number one bully
21:17In all of Evolve
21:19That's a fantastic question
21:20I think the combination
21:21Of his attitude
21:22Size and ability
21:23Makes him
21:24Yeah
21:24The number one bully
21:26As you see
21:26A little response
21:27To that number one bully
21:29With some arm drags
21:29Coming from Trill London
21:30And you can really see
21:31The improvements in the ring
21:32Inside Trill London
21:33Of course
21:33We go back to that
21:34Dante Chen match
21:34A few weeks ago
21:35But even his early training
21:36Trill certainly made
21:37A lot of strides
21:38From the beginning of Evolve
21:39To right now
21:39Quite the evolution
21:40If you will
21:41Very well said
21:42Again
21:42I really think that
21:44Given the right opportunities
21:45And the ability
21:47To just continue to work
21:49Trill London is someone
21:50That you could see one day
21:52Rocking the WWE Universe
21:53Similar to what we're seeing
21:54From Javon Evans right now
21:57Absolutely
21:57We will always say
21:58How Evolve meets this talent
22:00At the ground level
22:00Is
22:01Oh
22:01Harley with a fistful
22:02Of Trill's hair right there
22:03I hate to see it
22:05But I can't say I'm surprised
22:06Peter you have to wonder
22:07The new man in charge
22:08Saw that one
22:08As we found out
22:09At the top of the show
22:10We have a new foreman
22:11Here
22:11Not a general manager
22:12A foreman here on Evolve
22:13His name is
22:15The ID player coach
22:16Timothy Thatcher
22:17You're going to have to
22:17Bring your lunch pail
22:18To work here on Evolve
22:19On Wednesday nights
22:20As you see that
22:21Electric enigma
22:22Right here
22:23Trill London
22:23Big connection with the dropkick
22:25Sending Harley Riggins
22:26Down to the outside
22:26But with that
22:27With Timothy Thatcher
22:28Being here
22:29That means tonight
22:30Everybody has an opportunity
22:31Watch out
22:32And Harley
22:33Meets Cam right there
22:35And Trill
22:36Takes a look on the outside
22:37Peter
22:37See here we go
22:38Trill
22:39Where we going Trill
22:40Into position
22:41He likes to risk it all
22:42Trill's going to fly
22:43Whoa
22:44Whisper in the wind
22:45To the outside
22:46Trill London
22:47Looking to pick up
22:48Some momentum right here
22:49And of course
22:50If you take a look back
22:51Just a couple of weeks ago
22:52Here
22:53Trill not on team PC
22:54Certainly might have
22:55A different mindset
22:56Different values
22:57Is Harley Riggins
22:57I think that's absolutely
22:59Safe to assume
23:00And Harley
23:01Release German suplex
23:03Looking to capitalize here
23:04Riggins
23:04Not even going for the cover
23:06Peter
23:06Just continuing to punish
23:07Although listen
23:07I can't blame him for that
23:08That is a smart thing
23:09You want to try to get
23:10Your opponent down
23:11Then attack
23:11And get them in the most
23:12Prone position
23:13To secure a W
23:15And now Riggins off the rope
23:17Bam
23:17Big connection right there
23:19Let's see
23:20If this could end
23:21Trill London
23:22I think the only thing
23:23These guys can relate on
23:24Is the desire
23:26And need
23:27To impress the foreman
23:29Timothy Thatcher tonight
23:30They both know
23:31What a win would mean
23:31Peter we talk about
23:32Opportunity tonight
23:33Next week
23:33Really for the immediate
23:34Future here on Evolve
23:35How big of a chance
23:36Is this for Harley Riggins
23:37To break out as a single star
23:38Well it just seems to me
23:40You know when you're
23:40In a tag team
23:41Like Riggins and Presley
23:43Obviously there are
23:44Benefits to that
23:45But the downside is
23:46Sometimes you can get
23:46Lost as a talent
23:47So when your partner
23:48Goes down it's unfortunate
23:50But it does provide
23:51An opportunity
23:52To be seen in a different light
23:53And I absolutely believe
23:55Harley Riggins
23:56Understands that
23:56And we talk about
23:57Difference makers
23:57You see Cam Hendricks
23:58On the outside
23:59Cam Hendricks coming to Evolve
24:00Putting his stamp
24:01Right in the mix
24:02In day one
24:03He gets an Evolve
24:03Championship opportunity
24:05He's already rising
24:06Right up the ranks
24:06And of course
24:07They're getting under the skin
24:08Of other superstars here
24:09Like Tate Wild
24:11Tate Wild
24:11Are still not cleared
24:12As a result of those actions
24:13I think charges
24:14Should be pressed
24:14Against Cam Hendricks
24:15I think that goes beyond
24:16Anything that happens
24:17In the performance center
24:18That was an attack
24:19That was a crime to me
24:21Trill London's starting
24:22To pick up the pace
24:23A bit here Peter
24:24Here we go
24:24In the cover center
24:25Of the ring
24:26Man imagine a win
24:27Over Harley Riggins
24:28For Trill London
24:29You talk about
24:30Throwing yourself
24:31Right in the mix
24:33Of the division
24:33That is what a win
24:34Would mean tonight
24:35For Trill London
24:36We know Timothy Thatcher
24:37Certainly has a huge
24:38Decision to make
24:39For next week
24:40Who will Jackson Drake
24:41Take on in his final evolution
24:42But Cam Hendricks
24:43Is up
24:43And look at Harley Riggins
24:45Take full advantage
24:46Absolutely
24:46That's a smart move though
24:47And Trill London
24:48Cannot get caught off guard
24:50Like that
24:50And here we go
24:52Into the TKO
24:54And Harley Riggins
24:55Finds his way
24:56With a creative victory
24:58Here is your winner
25:00Harley Riggins
25:04That's a very
25:06Very tough way
25:07To lose
25:07If you're Trill London
25:09Competitive throughout the match
25:11The distraction
25:12From Cam Hendricks
25:13And now you're Trill London
25:14It's another opportunity
25:15That sort of slips
25:16Through your grasp
25:16Harley Riggins
25:18Always done with
25:18The numbers game
25:20Cam Hendricks
25:21Picking up the pieces
25:22Right now
25:23As these two
25:23Continue their reign
25:24Here over Evolve
25:26And listen
25:27Trill London
25:27He was good
25:28At multiple times
25:29Throughout the match
25:30But again
25:30The attitude
25:32The pressure
25:33The ring awareness
25:34Harley Riggins
25:35Getting a win
25:36Now let's head
25:36Ringside to our guy
25:37Chewy Martinez
25:38Standing by with the winner
25:42Harley that was pretty impressive
25:43Brother your first singles win
25:45Here at Evolve
25:45Congratulations
25:46But Cam's here
25:47Is this the new tag team
25:49What's up
25:49Hey man
25:50I know you're a fan
25:51I know you're a fan
25:51But around here
25:52We do whatever we want
25:54Chewy
25:54I like what you did
25:55To Tate Wilder
25:56In the parking lot
25:57Yeah why is he crying
25:58He's coming back
25:59You know that right
25:59No one's concerned
26:00Hey we're in the
26:02Ass kicking business
26:03And business is
26:04Boom
26:06Peter
26:06The gatekeeper's here
26:08Hey he was picked
26:09Last at recess
26:11He was picked
26:11Last at recess
26:12Hey Dante Dante Dante
26:14What are you mad
26:14We didn't pick you
26:15For TPC
26:16He does
26:19I never would have
26:20Joined you guys
26:20I welcome the ID talent
26:22You guys don't
26:24Represent the PC
26:25You
26:26Are a disgrace
26:27What
26:29What'd you say
26:29I can't stand by
26:30And see what you did
26:31To Tate
26:32And stay silent
26:34Dante you coming out
26:35Here pretty bold
26:35Stepping up to us
26:36But you want to
26:37Test that toughness
26:38Why don't you
26:39Fight me next week
26:39See what happens
26:40When you step in
26:41The ring with
26:41Showtime
26:42Hey let me in right now
26:44Let me in right now
26:45You're on
26:46Hey
26:48I think Timothy Thatcher
26:50Will sign off on that
26:51Y'all
26:51Dante Chen
26:52Versus Cam Hendricks
26:53Next week
26:54But you know what
26:54We have some history
26:55Being made
26:55When we come back
26:56Kendall Gray
26:57Will defend her title
26:58One last time
26:59Y'all
27:00Woo
27:05Everyone's gotta tell
27:12WrestleMania Vegas
27:15It's anyone's game
27:42Hello Mr. Thatcher
27:45Or should I call you
27:46Mr. Foreman now
27:48Very spicky
27:49Mr. Foreman please
27:51Alright Mr. Foreman
27:53It's okay
27:53It's okay
27:54Alright Timothy
27:55Let me not waste time
27:56Let me just get it all out
27:58Okay
27:58Yes sir
27:59I truly believe in this life
28:01Opportunities are earned
28:03Not because we think
28:05We deserve them
28:06And next week
28:08Jackson Drake
28:08He gets to have his final
28:10Evolution
28:11See what I did there
28:13His curtain call
28:14His final time
28:16In the spotlight of Evolve
28:17And he gets to have
28:18His last chance
28:19To walk out there
28:20As champion
28:21And Jackson
28:22Has earned that
28:25But you know what
28:26He doesn't deserve
28:27To leave here
28:29As champion
28:29He doesn't deserve
28:31To walk out there
28:32One last time
28:33Hold up the belt
28:34And then vacate it
28:35Like he's built this place
28:36I mean
28:38The Vanity Project
28:39Has been doing
28:40The same song and dance
28:42Since day one
28:43Of WWE ID
28:44Cheap shots
28:46Shortcuts
28:47Inflated egos
28:49And my personal worst
28:51Horrendous outfit choices
28:53Horrendous
28:54I mean
28:55They even have the nerve
28:56To say that they've
28:57Built this and run this place
29:01My final straw
29:03Was that ten man tag
29:04They just poof
29:05Gone
29:06Up and left
29:07Left us for a three on five
29:08Against a pack of wolves
29:09But
29:10You rose to the occasion
29:12I mean
29:13I'll never not
29:14Take a compliment
29:15But
29:16We survived that match
29:18But that's what Evolve does
29:19We survive
29:20We grow
29:22And we earn
29:24And truthfully
29:27I feel like I represent Evolve
29:30Opportunity
29:31Development
29:32Improvement
29:33You've seen it first hand
29:34For the last year
29:36I've been giving my all
29:37To show that I'm the diamond
29:39In the rough here
29:40In the ID program
29:41And I'm damn proud
29:42To represent WWE ID
29:45I mean you've improved your game
29:47In every aspect
29:48Thank you
29:50It's time I step up
29:52To be the leader
29:53It's time
29:54The dime piece
29:55Stands
29:56In the spotlight
29:58I'm just
30:00I'm just looking
30:01For an opportunity
30:03I'm the man
30:05That stops Jackson
30:06From rewriting history
30:09I'm the man
30:10To make sure
30:12His evolution ends
30:13But mine begins
30:15I'm the man
30:16To make sure
30:17That championship
30:18Stays here
30:19Right where it belongs
30:24Respectfully
30:25I'm asking you
30:27To give me this match
30:29Please
30:32I mean
30:34Harlem Lewis did make
30:35A compelling argument
30:36It's true
30:38But I think he'll get his time
30:41It's your time next week
30:43Really?
30:44Yeah
30:45Thank you Timothy
30:46Thank you Mr. Foreman
30:48Thank you
30:49Thank you
30:50Yeah of course sir
30:50Good luck
31:00Well Peter
31:01Major breaking news there
31:02The opportunity of a lifetime
31:04For Aaron Roark
31:05Next Wednesday
31:06Now listen
31:07There is no one
31:08More deserving
31:09In the locker room
31:11Than Aaron Roark
31:11From day one
31:13He's done it
31:13As a tag competitor
31:14He's done it
31:15As a singles competitor
31:16I am so excited
31:17For Aaron Roark
31:19He's certainly been building
31:20Some momentum
31:21In recent weeks
31:22Maybe not the favorite
31:23Coming in
31:23To get the opportunity
31:24Against Jackson Drake
31:25But he certainly
31:26Has secured that
31:27For next week
31:28But you want to talk
31:28About some momentum
31:29Peter
31:29How about the challenger
31:31In our first ever
31:31Final evolution
31:33Right here
31:33For Kendall Gray
31:34Tyra Maysteel
31:35From the Olympic gold medal
31:36Right here to evolve
31:38And she's ready
31:38Peter
31:39To add some more gold
31:42We've talked about this
31:43Tyra Maysteel
31:45Has been on a roll
31:46Week after week
31:47After week
31:48The momentum
31:49Has been building
31:50For Tyra Maysteel
31:51And now
31:51She gets the shot
31:52Of a lifetime
31:56It'll be very interesting
31:58To see how this one
31:58Plays out
31:59She's had her target
32:00On Kendall Gray
32:01Ever since coming to 2B
32:05The challenger is in
32:08Peter
32:08Here comes the champion
32:09And you know
32:10The proverbial
32:10Locker room sellout
32:11Right here
32:12Glued to the monitors
32:13VIP section is full
32:15The final match
32:16In Evolve
32:16For Kendall Gray
32:18Yeah I'd be lying
32:19To you Blake
32:19If I said I didn't feel
32:20A little bit emotional
32:21Knowing this will be
32:22The last time
32:23We see Kendall Gray
32:24Walk through that curtain
32:26As our Evolve champion
32:27She has been
32:28One of the true stories
32:30Since the very beginning
32:31Of WWE
32:32Evolve
32:32She had the first match
32:33In Evolve history
32:34She was in the match
32:35To the crown
32:35The first ever
32:36Women's champion
32:37Five television title defenses
32:39Won the title at succession
32:41She's been the MVP
32:42For the last year
32:43But can she finish out
32:44With the gold
32:45If you've been with us
32:47Since the beginning
32:48You've been watching Evolve
32:49You know the star
32:50That Kendall Gray is
32:52And it's been very satisfying
32:53To see Evolve's
32:55Very own boss lady
32:56Become that same star
32:57On the NXT stage
32:59Very proud of Kendall Gray
33:00So we're set to go
33:01Let's head to our ring announcer
33:02Mike Rome
33:03To set the table
33:04For the final evolution
33:09The following contest
33:10Scheduled for one fall
33:12Is for
33:14The Evolve
33:16Women's Championship
33:21Introducing the challenger
33:23From Houston, Texas
33:25Olympic gold medalist
33:30Tyra Mae Steele
33:34And her opponent
33:39From Las Vegas, Nevada
33:41She is
33:43The Evolve
33:45Women's Champion
33:46Kendall Gray
33:53Tyra Mae Steele
33:54The Olympic gold medalist
33:56Back in the 2020 Olympics
33:57Winning the gold
33:58In the freestyle
34:00And then of course
34:01Kendall Gray
34:01Undefeated as an amateur
34:03In wrestling
34:04In the collegiate ranks
34:05And now Peter
34:06We're looking at a situation
34:07Who has the amateur advantage
34:09The champion
34:10Or the Olympic champion
34:11Listen, the fact is
34:13On paper
34:15The challenger
34:16Actually has the advantage
34:18In this matchup
34:19I mean
34:19To say someone
34:21Is an Olympic gold medalist
34:22I can't even properly
34:24Emphasize
34:25What that says
34:26About the skills
34:27Of Tyra Mae Steele
34:27And you see it early on
34:29But of course
34:29In this environment
34:30Peter
34:30There's no points
34:31The takedowns
34:32Don't necessarily mean the same
34:33They can certainly
34:34Give an advantage
34:34As you see Wendy Chu
34:35And Lainey Luck
34:36Looking on
34:36Again, a lot at stake
34:38Right here
34:38Kendall Gray has been
34:39The cornerstone
34:40Of the women's division
34:41Tyra Mae Steele's rising up
34:42Something has to give
34:43Tonight on Tubi
34:44Well, either way
34:46In one scenario
34:47Kendall Gray leaves
34:49With the title
34:50As Evolved Women's Champion
34:51That's incredible to picture
34:53On the flip side
34:54Can you imagine
34:55What it would mean
34:56If Tyra Mae Steele
34:57Becomes the third ever
34:58WWE Evolved Women's Champion
35:00Either result
35:01Is incredibly exciting to picture
35:03Did you see a series
35:04Of reversals
35:04Right here
35:05As this is certainly
35:06World-class
35:07Matt wrestling
35:08Right here
35:08On display
35:09In our main event
35:09And that's certainly
35:11One of the reasons
35:12Foreman Thatcher
35:13Made this matchup
35:14Put Tyra Mae Steele
35:15In this position
35:15Nice go behind
35:16By Tyra Mae
35:17To the roll-up
35:18And look at this
35:18This incredible
35:20Matt wrestling
35:21Early on
35:21Just so representative
35:23Of a wonderful
35:25And deep women's division
35:26On Evolved
35:27That we've been able
35:28To watch for the last year
35:29Fireman's carry
35:29Takedown by Tyra Mae Steele
35:31And Peter
35:31If you've been watching
35:32Evolved ever since
35:33The beginning
35:33That's been the
35:34Bread and butter
35:34Of Kendall Gray
35:35That has to be getting
35:36Into her head
35:36Right here
35:37Yeah 100%
35:38But Kendall Gray
35:39The other bread and butter
35:40She absolutely knows
35:42As a match goes on
35:43And gets more intense
35:44She gets better
35:45And better
35:47Tyra Mae puts on
35:48The brakes right here
35:48As Kendall Gray
35:49Tries to go for
35:50The hip lock takeover
35:51Gray
35:51Trying to find
35:52Any advantage she can
35:53That is the Kendall Gray
35:56We've come to know
35:57And love over the last year
35:58And we've speculated
35:59For quite some time
36:00With Kendall Gray
36:01Her schedule
36:01Whether it's Tuesday nights
36:02Wednesday nights
36:03Weekends
36:03All around the country
36:04Has she been stretched
36:05Too thin Peter
36:06Is her schedule
36:07Gonna hold her back
36:08In this match
36:09Well you know
36:09You bring that up
36:10Robert Stone
36:10Used to bring that up
36:11But the proof
36:12Here we go
36:12Into the cover
36:13Hooks the outside leg
36:14The proof is in the pudding
36:15Blake
36:15Has she been stretched
36:16Too thin
36:16Has it affected her
36:17No
36:18She continues to maintain
36:20She continues to wear
36:21That championship proudly
36:22And compete here
36:23Compete on Tuesday nights
36:25And on the weekends
36:26And all over the world
36:26As well
36:26Tyra Mae trying to
36:27Reversal right there
36:28Kendall Gray
36:29Holding her ground
36:29Look at the Matt
36:30Wrestling exchanges
36:31Right here
36:31Counter for counter
36:33And of course Tyra Mae
36:34She feels this is her
36:35Moment Peter
36:35Her first ever
36:36WWE championship
36:38Opportunity
36:38Well listen
36:39These opportunities
36:40Grow on trees
36:41The Beal out of the corner
36:43Ask our former champion
36:44Callie Armstrong
36:45Who's been desperate
36:46To get a rematch
36:48A singles rematch
36:49Against Kendall Gray
36:50You're never guaranteed
36:51Another shot
36:52So Tyra Mae Steele
36:53Needs to take advantage
36:55We talk about those
36:56Five TV title defenses
36:57For Kendall Gray
36:58One of them coming
36:58In Madison Square Garden
37:00If you go back
37:00Earlier in the year
37:01In 2025
37:02Tyra Mae Steele
37:03Winning LFG Season 1
37:05In Madison Square Garden
37:07Both of these superstars
37:08Have competed
37:08At that high level
37:10And they want to
37:10Take it up a notch here
37:12I just
37:13If you're sitting here
37:14Watching this
37:14I just hope
37:15You're taking
37:16In this moment
37:16Two talents
37:17Like Kendall Gray
37:18And Tyra Mae Steele
37:19One day
37:20You will be watching
37:21Them at Wrestlemania

37:29The evolution
37:29Of Kendall Gray's
37:30Young career here
37:31Right in
37:32And dunk down
37:35With that belly
37:36To belly right there
37:37Tyra Mae Steele
37:38Starting to cook
37:39A bit here Peter
37:39She's got a ton
37:40Of momentum
37:41Coming into this matchup
37:41We said that
37:43And it's so true
37:43Tyra Mae Steele
37:44Has been getting better
37:45Every week
37:46Ever since she got
37:47To evolve
37:48Listen she had had
37:49Opportunities in NXT
37:50She gets down
37:51To evolve
37:52And she's been better
37:53And better
37:54Tyra Mae Steele
37:54Trying to get
37:55The Evolve
37:55Women's Championship
37:56This match continues
37:57On Tubi
38:05In Vegas
38:07Everything's a game
38:10Some nights
38:12It's played without cards
38:14Or dice
38:15Just tension
38:18Every move measured
38:21Every look
38:22A strategy
38:23A strategy sharpened
38:26Always watching your back
38:34Prepared for anything
38:40Never knowing
38:42Who the real threat is
38:51Or who might show up
38:53At the table
39:02WrestleMania Vegas
39:07It's anyone's game
39:17Back in action here

39:20Big fight feel here
39:21Blake Howard
39:21Peter Rosenberg
39:22Tyra Mae Steele
39:23Pushing Kendall Gray
39:24To the limit
39:26I mean it's beyond
39:27Big fight feel
39:28This is just a big fight
39:29The Evolve
39:30Women's Champion
39:30Kendall Gray
39:31Was such a rare
39:32Opportunity
39:33To head to NXT
39:34Without ever
39:35Being defeated
39:36For her championship
39:38Only minutes remaining
39:39In Kendall Gray's
39:40Evolve career
39:41Right here
39:42Will she go to NXT
39:43Still champion
39:44And having to vacate
39:45Or will Tyra Mae
39:46Win the title
39:48And you see Tyra Mae
39:49With that smile
39:50On her face
39:50Peter
39:50She thinks she's
39:51In the driver's seat
39:52Right here
39:52It's just
39:52It's so impressive
39:53Because Tyra Mae
39:54Steele
39:55You meet her
39:55Outside the ring
39:56She's all smiles
39:57Thumbs up
39:58And dancing
39:58And then once
39:59The bell rings
40:00She becomes
40:01This person
40:02This level of competitor
40:03The kind of person
40:04Who goes on to win
40:05A gold medal
40:05At the Olympics
40:06And you see
40:07The richest prize
40:08The Evolve
40:08Women's Division
40:09Right there
40:09Tyra Mae Steele
40:10Kendall Gray
40:11Battling it out
40:11Right now
40:12Center of the ring
40:13As Tyra
40:14With the submission
40:15Hold Peter
40:16Not many places
40:17For Kendall to go
40:17This is starting
40:19To wear on Kendall Gray
40:20You see that arm
40:21Cinched in
40:22Under the chin
40:23Of the champion
40:24Referee Joey Gonzalez
40:25Checking in right now
40:26Tyra Mae
40:27She seems
40:27It even tighter
40:29As you said
40:30Peter
40:31Locking it in
40:31Right underneath
40:32The chin
40:32Of Kendall Gray
40:33Gray back to her feet
40:34Right now
40:35The champion
40:35Trying to fight
40:37Off the challenger
40:37Man
40:39Oh
40:39Kendall Gray
40:40Using those elbows
40:41To escape the grasp
40:42Of Tyra Mae Steele
40:44Then a big right hand
40:44To follow
40:45And Gray
40:46Oh
40:47Almost get dumped again
40:48Nice counter
40:49Kendall with the cover
40:50Only gets two
40:51Oh
40:52Oh man
40:52Kendall bouncing back
40:53After that choke hold
40:55That she had on her
40:56For 90 seconds
40:58Kendall Gray has found
40:59Her wind again
41:00Here she is
41:01Oof
41:01Well that wasn't a move
41:02I'd expect to see
41:03In the Olympics
41:03But it certainly was effective
41:05As Tyra Mae with her eyes
41:06On the prize here
41:09Tyra Mae Steele
41:10With a championship
41:11On her mind
41:12And for us
41:13We also just have to
41:14Appreciate the closing moments
41:16Of Kendall Gray's
41:17Evolved career
41:18Can it end as champion
41:19Look at the raw power
41:21And ragged all
41:22Of Kendall Gray
41:23That gut wrench
41:24Suplex up and over
41:25Tyra Mae's locked in
41:26Peter
41:27It's 2020 all over again
41:29And just off the back end
41:30Of the Olympics
41:31Tyra Mae feeling
41:32As motivated as ever
41:33Look at her
41:33Just picking
41:34Picking Kendall Gray
41:35Up off the ground
41:36Gut wrench
41:37Tossing her
41:39And Gray
41:40Barely able to get
41:41To her feet right here
41:42She's a bit stunned
41:44Oof
41:45Another gut wrench toss
41:46Will we get to see
41:48One last time
41:49Kendall Gray
41:49Take those straps down
41:51And enter the gray area
41:52And you have to be
41:53Wondering here
41:54Tyra Mae might be
41:55Looking for that
41:55German suplex
41:56If she can connect
41:57On that wings of glory
41:58We're looking at
41:59A brand new
41:59Evolved women's champion
42:00Well it's a great point
42:01Blake and she does
42:02Seem to have Kendall Gray
42:03Prone right now
42:04There's a cover
42:05Center of the ring
42:07Again only two
42:08You're gonna need to do more
42:09You're gonna have to do more
42:10To finish Kendall Gray
42:11And that's what it looks
42:11Like she's doing
42:12Going back to work
42:13Foreman Thatcher
42:15Laying down a huge main event
42:16His first week on the job
42:18And we'll see if
42:19Tyra Mae Steele
42:20Could take full advantage
42:21Right here
42:22The Evolved Universe
42:22Starting to rally a bit
42:24And Kendall Gray
42:25In a bad spot
42:25She's being bent in half
42:27By Tyra Mae Steele
42:28And of course
42:28Kendall said she wanted
42:29To come out here alone
42:30Peter
42:30No Ren Sinclair
42:31She's getting it done
42:32All on Kendall Gray's time
42:35Oh man
42:36Kendall's being bent backwards
42:37Certainly gonna be tough
42:39To go to the gray area
42:40In this predicament
42:40And look at Tyra Mae
42:41Wrenching back
42:42Peter
42:42She wants the gold
42:43Absolutely
42:43I am so impressed
42:44With the gear
42:45Tyra Mae Steele
42:46Is hitting right now
42:47And we shouldn't be surprised
42:49She's an Olympic gold medalist
42:50For a reason
42:50You see that confidence
42:51Growing here in Tyra Mae Steele
42:53We saw her a little bit
42:53Last year
42:54And her evolution now
42:56Into the number one contender
42:57In the Evolved Women's Championship
42:58These two going back and forth
43:00Once again
43:01And Tyra Mae
43:02Looking to take full advantage now
43:03Going for that gut wrench
43:05One more time
43:05Oh
43:06Gray spins right out
43:08Oh but misses with the right hand
43:09These two build some momentum
43:11Right now
43:11Oh
43:12They collide in the center
43:13Of the ring
43:14Peter
43:14Champion is down
43:15Challenger is down
43:16The Evolved Women's Championship
43:17Hanging the balance
43:19In our main event
43:19Here on Tubi
43:20Do you remember where you were
43:22When Kendall Gray
43:24Defended her championship
43:26Against the young Tyra Mae Steele
43:28Here we are
43:29The Evolved Universe
43:30Looking on
43:31In Kendall Gray's
43:32Last Evolved match
43:34Kendall Gray can't quite think
43:36About Tuesday nights yet
43:37She's got to worry about
43:38Tyra Mae Steele
43:39Right in front of her
43:39And the Olympic gold medalist
43:41See
43:42There's the savvy
43:43There's the ring awareness
43:44Of our champion
43:45As Kendall
43:46Creates that separation
43:47One more time
43:48She might be looking
43:48To take Tyra
43:49To that gray area
43:50But you can see
43:50She's still favoring
43:51Her midsection
43:52She's still a bit hurt
43:53And gray
43:55Irish whip reverse now
43:56Tyra Mae charges in
43:58Oh and Kendall
43:59Takes one out
44:00Of Tyra's playbook
44:02A suplex of her own
44:04For Kendall Gray
44:05Here we go
44:05It's time to enter
44:07The gray area
44:08The straps are down
44:10And Kendall's ready
44:11To roll the drop down
44:13T-Bone
44:14This is when
44:15Kendall Gray
44:16Gets to that next level
44:18Taking a look
44:18At her eyes there
44:19Peter
44:20Locked in
44:20Kendall Gray
44:21Looking to seize the moment
44:23We've seen this so many times
44:25From our champion
44:25Can she do it
44:26One more time
44:27Looking to risk it all
44:28Oh a DDT out of the corner
44:30Oh my goodness
44:31Dig it deeper
44:31In the playbook
44:32There's the cover
44:34And Tyra Mae hangs on
44:36Oh man
44:36I thought that DDT
44:37Might have put Tyra Mae
44:38Steele to sleep
44:39As you see
44:40Laney Luck
44:40And Wendy Choo
44:41Looking on
44:42Wendy Choo
44:43A veteran of Evolve
44:44Laney Luck of course
44:45Waving the flag
44:46And the ID program
44:47Both locked in here
44:49And what we understand
44:50Peter in the back
44:51Everyone's eyes
44:51Glued on the Maunders
44:53For this huge main event
44:54Wendy Choo
44:55With her own history
44:55Of course
44:56With Kendall Gray
44:56She knows what our champion
44:58Is capable of
44:59And she heads to the top rope
45:00What's she looking for here
45:01Blake
45:01Oh watch out
45:03As Tyra Mae
45:03All the way up top
45:05Compromising position
45:06Might be looking for an overhead
45:07Belly to belly
45:08And Kendall
45:09Looking to fight off
45:11And now Kendall
45:12Rarefied air here
45:13Peter
45:14Yeah she does not
45:14Spend a lot of time up here
45:15But she got the separation
45:17And Kendall
45:18Off the top
45:19And Tyra Mae
45:20Looks to take advantage
45:21Olympic slam
45:22Here we go
45:23Center of the ring
45:24There's the cover
45:25Hooks the outside leg
45:26Shoulders are down
45:27Oh my goodness
45:28I thought that mistake
45:29Was really going to cost
45:31Kendall Gray
45:31Her championship
45:32And if you look at
45:34Tyra Mae's face
45:35Peter
45:35She certainly thought
45:36That was her opportunity
45:37To become
45:38Evolve Women's Champion
45:39Yeah Kendall
45:40Really really made
45:42A rare mistake
45:43She does not do that often
45:45And to Tyra Mae
45:46Steals credit
45:47She took advantage
45:48Of the moment
45:48And almost won
45:50The championship
45:50These two set the pace
45:51For the final evolution
45:52Kendall Gray
45:53Almost goes for the crucifix
45:55There in a wheelbarer position
