00:37Introducing first, from Adelaide, South Australia,
00:42she is the WWE Women's Champion, Rhea Ripley!
00:51Rhea Ripley is undefeated on Saturday night's main event.
00:58And she kicks off the show here tonight in a six-woman tag team matchup.
01:06Rhea Ripley, of course, beat Jade Cargill for the WWE Championship back in WrestleMania.
01:11She now has a WrestleMania rematch a week from tomorrow.
01:15Turin, Italy, Clash in Italy, Ripley Cargill for the WWE Championship.
01:32Now get everybody, Michael Cole, Wade Barrett at ringside,
01:35and partner Rhea Ripley an opportunity tonight to build some momentum
01:38toward next Sunday in Clash in Italy.
01:40Yeah, undoubtedly. And also gain some vengeance for a number of beatdowns
01:45that she's received from Jade Cargill over the past several weeks,
01:48including last night on SmackDown.
01:54Rhea suffered a shading at the hands of Jade Cargill.
01:59After Rhea and Charlotte were successful in a tag team matchup
02:02against Fatal Influence on SmackDown.
02:19All hail the Queen.
02:23All hail the Queen.
02:32All hail the Queen.
02:33One hundred and him.
02:44And tower was strong in the spotlight ofolo Homer Beck Stevens.
02:44One hundred and him said run in theقة team matchup
02:49with an badass roar to the character.
02:50Two hundred and him.
02:56He's that beautiful.
02:57I think he's looking at salt because it is coming Möglichkeit.
02:59Two hundred and him there were team leaders in the guerre.
02:59Two hundred and him hit theobeying.
03:00He hit the mark of 2012istes.
03:00He hit the Pasteur Himish.
03:13Introducing her tag team partners, Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair.
03:21Former tag team champions teaming with Rhea Ripley here tonight.
03:25Charlotte Flair with some interesting gear for this matchup.
03:29She received a number of friendship bracelets over the past couple of years from a number
03:34of fans who felt that Charlotte was down in the dumps, that she was depressed a bit.
03:38And these friendship bracelets, well, they put Charlotte in an unbelievable mood.
03:42It led to where she is today, as happy as she's ever been in her life and in her career.
03:48So to pay respect to all these fans who've sent these bracelets over the years, Charlotte
03:53Flair's gear tonight, Wade, adored with all these friendship bracelets.
03:58Yeah, it's been an incredible 12 months for Charlotte Flair.
04:01Taking herself out of that funk and back to the very top.
04:05And a huge part of that has also been this partnership with Alexa Bliss.
04:10Allies of Convenience initially, but that has turned into a huge friendship.
04:16Now the Allies of Convenience label could well be applied to Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley too tonight.
04:23Two women who probably don't like each other too well.
04:27Career rivals, yet they have to make it work tonight.
04:29Yeah, massive egos on the same team tonight.
04:33Alexa Bliss has played Peacekeeper over the past few weeks.
04:51A storm.
04:53A storm.
05:04A storm is coming.
05:31And their opponents, the team of B-Fab, Meechan, and Jade Cargill.
05:41Adorned in gear, paying homage to the late great Michael Jackson,
05:47Jade Cargill, Meechan, and B-Fab headed to action tonight.
05:51For the first time, Wade, as a team.
05:54Remember, Meechan and B-Fab would join forces with Jade Cargill a few months back
05:59to try to take out Rhea Ripley and company.
06:02Tonight, another opportunity to do that.
06:04Well, Shamone to that trio.
06:06They look incredible, and they've looked incredible every single time
06:11they've operated as a unit, even outside of match competition.
06:15Now, this is their first test as a trio,
06:18but if history is anything to go by, they can be devastating once that bell rings.
06:23You know, on the other side of the coin, Wade, a lot has been made about this
06:26Rhea Ripley-Charlotte Flair relationship and these two massive egos colliding.
06:32Can they get along?
06:33Well, the past shows they can.
06:36This trio, including Bliss, two and one as a team.
06:40And even last night, Charlotte and Rhea picked up for victory on SmackDown.
06:44Yeah, there was some tension in that match yesterday on SmackDown, but Bliss did the right thing.
06:48She said to Rhea, she said to Charlotte, you two have to bomb.
06:52We have to make this work.
06:54There are multiple threats in the division, be it fatal influencer, indeed,
06:58Jade Cargill, Meechan, and B-Fab.
07:01And if we're gonna survive around here, we have to act as a unit.
07:04And the bell rings.
07:05The referee, Daphne LaShawn, will work this match up.
07:08Six-woman tag to kick us off on Saturday night's main event.
07:13Three title matches still to come and the Becky Lynch-Soul Ruka collision.
07:19And the WWE Women's Champion, Rhea Ripley, gonna start things off
07:23with the woman she took the title from at WrestleMania, the Storm Jade Cargill.
07:31Well, that's some mind games from Jay Cargill.
07:34Man, no mistake, that's not fear of Rhea Ripley.
07:37Jay Cargill believes she has Ripley's number.
07:41Well, Cargill will get Ripley a week from Sunday at Clash in Italy for the championship.
07:47B-Fab will start things off against Rhea Ripley.
07:49Lands on her feet.
07:50B-Fab ducks behind and trying to hook Rhea up here and there.
07:54There's the power now of the Eradicator.
07:57But B-Fab able to land on her feet.
07:58Waist lock now on Rhea.
08:00Yeah, how impressive has B-Fab been since there's link up with...
08:03Oh!
08:04With Jay Cargill, I was gonna say.
08:06Did you hear the impact of that clothesline?
08:10Yeah, a little chest-beating moment there from Mami, sending a message
08:14to her opponent in just over a week's time at Clash in Italy.
08:19And tag made.
08:20And here comes Alexa Bliss, who appears on Saturday night's main event
08:24for the very first time in her career.
08:26And Alexa now, who tends B-Fab toward the corner.
08:29Tag made, here comes Meechan.
08:33Meechan, a former TNA Knockouts World Champion, appearing in her second
08:38Saturday night's main event in her career.
08:40Meechan has been an absolute menace of late since linking up with Cargill.
08:45And we're gonna need all of that menacing behavior right now.
08:48But taken down from the off by Bliss.
08:50Yeah, the former five-time world champion has this capacity crowd on its feet.
08:56Nice take down of Meechan.
08:58And right there, Alexa Bliss.
09:02Oh!
09:03Vintage Bliss, cover, hook of the leg.
09:06Meechan kicks it too.
09:08Yeah, and Alexa Bliss really has to be the glue in this trio tonight.
09:13Make sure there is peace between Charlotte and Rhea at all times.
09:17And you almost can't fail.
09:19And for the tag team champions, working together now.
09:22And here is the queen, the 14-time world champion, Charlotte Flair.
09:27Her father, the Nature Boy Ric Flair, appeared at one Saturday night's main event in his career.
09:32Charlotte making her first appearance.
09:38And the uber-athletic flair now in control of Meechan.
09:42Well, Meechan is as hardcore as they get, but nothing will prepare you for that kind of abuse.
09:50You know, it's incredible watching this change in attitude of Charlotte over the past year.
09:55Yeah, she's back to having fun again.
09:57Back to enjoying her time in the ring and around the industry.
10:01And that is when she's at her absolute best.
10:05Clothesline takes Meechan down.
10:07B-Fab now into the ring.
10:08And Charlotte Flair, knee to the neck, bounces B-Fab off the top turnbuckle.
10:14And Alexa Bliss now with a flying crossbody.
10:17Just cooking with gas right up there, hold on.
10:20And Jay Cargill now, kick to Bliss.
10:23And that was behind the referee's back.
10:26A smart move by Jay Cargill, who realized her team needed something.
10:31They needed a little injection in this one, because they were getting eaten alive.
10:36I'm always impressed with the poise of Jay Cargill.
10:40Now toe-to-toe with one of the all-time greats in Charlotte Flair.
10:44Feel a collision is coming at some point between these two.
10:47Well, man, what an epic showdown this could be.
10:54And a cheap shot by Cargill for the WWE Champion.
10:59That's Ruth Charlotte's attention, and it allowed Meechan to attack from behind.
11:02Great teamwork by Jay and company.
11:04The absolute incredible quarterback ship there from Rhea, excuse me, from Jay Cargill.
11:11Causing the distraction and giving her team the upper hand finally in this one.
11:16Well, you know, B-Fab and Meechan, they also have a score to settle.
11:19They lost to Charlotte and Alexa a couple of weeks back on Friday Night SmackDown.
11:23So I'll tell you right now, Meechan and B-Fab, they've waited on the sidelines for
11:26a long time here in WWE, and they are done waiting.
11:30They're done playing nice, they've got an opportunity, and they're gonna make it count every single time.
11:35This has been a meticulous effort by Jay Cargill and company.
11:40As Cargill now controls Flair.
11:43Cargill's just been waiting for that right opportunity to strike,
11:46and when the moment was there, she did not miss a beat.
11:49Frequent tags now by B-Fab and company.
11:52Cover, hook to the leg, and a kick out by Charlotte.
11:56Be surprised with how well they're working together.
11:58They're really, as I mentioned before, the first time they've ever been in a six-woman tag match together.
12:02Well, we know the caliber of Jade Cargill and what she's done over the past 12 months.
12:07The B-Fab and Meechan deal has been the question, but they are so hungry, so motivated,
12:14sick of sitting on the sidelines, and finally they've got that spotlight, and they're not here to make mistakes.
12:20Yeah, they have to develop this edge, Wade.
12:23And you've got to do that. When you feel you've tried everything in this industry,
12:28you've done what you're supposed to do, and it simply isn't working,
12:32then suddenly you've got to change things up and do what you've got to do.
12:35Nobody is ignoring B-Fab and Meechan anymore.
12:39How embarrassing has that have been for Charlotte to look up and see Cargill doing push-ups and talking trash?
12:46Well, that's kind of the M-O of Charlotte Flair.
12:48She's the one who likes to strut, who likes to style and profile in the face of her opponents.
12:54Well, not tonight.
12:54Here's the cover, and Charlotte's got to kick out at two.
12:58And now it may be panic stations for Alexa Bliss and Rhea Ripley.
13:03Watching Charlotte slowly getting decimated and controlled by Meechan.
13:08Meechan's the real deal, martial arts expert submission specialist as well.
13:13One of the baddest women in the locker room here in WWE.
13:18Absolute veteran of this industry who simply hasn't been given enough respect
13:22over the past couple of years.
13:24Well, she's now beating that respect into the very top tier of the women on Raw and SmackDown.
13:30And you can see the concern on the faces of both Alexa Bliss and Rhea Ripley.
13:35Charlotte desperately needs to make a tag.
13:41McQueen trying to fight out.
13:48Creating some space.
13:52Meechan rocks Charlotte with the right.
13:54Just taking that momentum away from Charlotte Flair.
13:59There's your Torms in once again, Cole.
14:02And that from Jade.
14:04Down goes Charlotte quickly into the cover.
14:06Is it enough to put her away?
14:08Hook to the leg by Meechan and a kick at it too by Flair.
14:14And now questions are being asked of Meechan.
14:17How deep can you dig?
14:18How deep is your playbook here when the big things you're trying simply haven't
14:23been enough to put Charlotte Flair away?
14:25What else have you got?
14:27Wait, I always thought Meechan was one of the most underrated stars on the roster.
14:30Now forming this alliance with Cargill.
14:34You're only ever as big as your opportunities in this game, Cole.
14:37And quite frankly, Meechan hasn't had enough of you guys.
14:40But that opportunity may be about to go begging.
14:43And B-Fab in off the tag trying to prevent Charlotte from making the tag to her corner,
14:48dragging Charlotte back to the middle of the ring.
14:50Charlotte with the right hand.
14:51She's an arm's length away from Rhea now.
14:53Again, trying to get to Rhea Ripley and make the tag to the champion.
14:57Those are big shots, but B-Fab not letting go.
15:00Make no mistake, B-Fab is a street fighter.
15:03And there's a little taste of that.
15:05Yeah, but you got it.
15:06Oh, and both women delivering kicks at the same time.
15:09Collision, middle of the ring.
15:11Impressed with B-Fab though, not allowing Charlotte to make the tag.
15:15Rhea Ripley dying to get into this matchup.
15:19Yeah, this could be a pivotal moment.
15:21Two women down and who desperately needs this tag in the worst way here?
15:25It's Charlotte Flair and Mami is itching to get into this one.
15:31B-Fab reaching out, makes the tag.
15:33Here comes Meechan, here comes Rhea.
15:35And this place has exploded.
15:37Oh, and the jaw of Jake Cargill might just explode it.
15:44Ripley wiping out Meechan with a clothesline.
15:48The focused intensity of Rhea Ripley.
15:52Let's go!
15:57Face first goes Meechan.
15:59Just raw power, speed, and precision all in sync for Rhea bloody Ripley.
16:06Ripley's got it all.
16:07She's the total package, the four-time world champion.
16:11Got a history of leaving a path of broken bodies in her wake.
16:16And this does not bode well for Meechan.
16:19It needs to come up with something fast.
16:20And launch to Rhea out to the apron, but Rhea able to count.
16:23Now up to the top rope goes Ripley.
16:25Rhea from up top.
16:28Beautiful.
16:30Meechan may be down and out.
16:31Cover now by the champion.
16:33And a kick out at two by Meechan, Jade Cargill.
16:36And Jade would not have made that.
16:38Jade was, how well-rounded is Rhea bloody Ripley?
16:42That is Cruiserweight style from a true powerhouse athlete in Rhea Ripley,
16:48who can do it all in that ring.
16:49And Meechan kicking out to save the matchup for her team.
16:54Now Ripley looking for Riptide, her bread and butter move here.
16:59Meechan trying to fight out of it, Cargill in.
17:02Rhea Ripley heads her off.
17:04Rhea Ripley cleaning everyone out on her own, the rest of her team down, maybe out.
17:09And Meechan taking advantage of, looking for the feet.
17:12Rhea Ripley with a headbutt.
17:15Nothing pretty about that.
17:16This, however, went for Riptide.
17:20Meechan able to land on her feet.
17:24Rhea caught her.
17:36That's a nasty landing there for Meechan, but effective anyway.
17:40And Rhea's got a kick at it too.
17:43That has to be frustrating for Meechan, thought she pulled up a miracle there.
17:47This is, this is nasty.
17:51Yeah, head first for Rhea Ripley, both women taking a nasty landing there.
17:56But Ripley the first one to bounce back with that capoeira style kick.
18:01Now trying to drag herself to a partner Alexa Bliss, and here comes Bliss.
18:09Alexa Bliss takes Meechan for a ride.
18:11The DDT cover by Alexa.
18:14One, two, three.
18:15Kick out by Meechan at two.
18:17Just different questions now being asked by Alexa Bliss, who has a completely different style
18:23to the rest of her teammates.
18:25But desperation move from Meechan, and it worked.
18:27And now B-Fab caught by Bliss.
18:32And her sister Abigail, B-Fab though, nice roll up.
18:37Kick right to the midsection.
18:39DDT plants her cover now.
18:43Bliss kicks out at two.
18:45And B-Fab is shocking a lot of people tonight with her abilities.
18:49Open your eyes, everyone.
18:51B-Fab is the dime that does the deals, and she can get it done.
18:55Meechan now in off the tag.
18:57Double team coming.
19:01And Bliss able to counter into a double DDT.
19:04Charlotte Flair back up on the apron.
19:07Bliss is hitting in a big way though.
19:08Those ribs might be bust.
19:11Tag.
19:17Here comes the queen with a crossbody.
19:24Listen to this place.
19:28Meechan dropped right on the back of her head.
19:31What a German suplex.
19:33Charlotte Flair just has physical gifts you cannot manufacture.
19:38And now he's got Meechan in position.
19:42Looking to the figure four to bridge to the figure eight.
19:45But Meechan able to counter.
19:46Charlotte almost running into Rhea.
19:49Tension between the two.
19:52Meechan blasting Ripley off the apron.
19:58And Meechan now has shuttled it up.
20:03Styles Clash paying him off to her former running buddy AJ Styles.
20:08The Hall of Famer cover Rhea Ripley.
20:11And that running knee breaks things up.
20:13Ripley saving things for her team.
20:16Manny D for Charlotte Flair, her rival.
20:19And things break.
20:20What?
20:21Cargill taking advantage of the car wreck.
20:25Not the time to celebrate.
20:30And that slap.
20:32Cargill just ate that slap.
20:38The referee has now lost complete control of this one.
20:42Chaos reigning supreme.
20:46And the two besties, the former tag champs.
20:50Well, that cost them.
20:51And now everybody down.
20:53Simply cannot celebrate too early at this level.
20:57Got to keep your eyes peeled.
20:59Stay focused on the prize.
21:01Get the job finished.
21:06What absolute carnage from the word go this matchup has been.
21:16Charlotte Meechan trying to struggle back to their feet.
21:22Jade Cargill, who remembers Saturday night's main event back in November.
21:26Won the WWE Championship at this event.
21:30We go on to lose it to Ripley at WrestleMania.
21:33And now Jade is legal off the tag.
21:37Charlotte Flair going to make the tag to Ripley.
21:40And now the matchup we'll see a week from Sunday.
21:43Clash in Italy.
21:44Ripley, Jade Cargill unfolding on our screens right now.
21:49What the world's been waiting for.
22:032, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1.
22:06Ripley gaining the upper hand.
22:11Cargill went for the pump kick.
22:13Ripley with the headbutt.
22:17Rhea, rip time.
22:22Meechan breaks things up.
22:23Just expert timing for Meechan and it had to be.
22:27How is Meechan still going with the abuse she's taken?
22:31That may have dropped her.
22:33Oh, and a big kick by B-Fap.
22:35Drops Alexa Bliss.
22:37Focusing now on Rhea Ripley.
22:39Charlotte back to her feet with a kick.
22:42Saving Rhea Ripley in the process.
22:47Tensions may be dissipating between these two.
22:57Oh, going for the handshake.
22:59Meechan was trying to sneak attack and Ripley made her pay for it.
23:03Well, Ripley may have just saved Charlotte in response.
23:07Is this the beginning of something beautiful, Cole?
23:12Double chops.
23:13Oh, no.
23:16Double fall away slams.
23:19And suddenly they're a team.
23:23A very dangerous team if they put their differences aside.
23:28And Alexa Bliss getting in on the hug as well.
23:31Well, the platinum blow for Alexa Bliss.
23:33She glued these two together.
23:37From the high, Jane Cargill wiping everybody out.
23:40Interrupting the party.
23:42Kick to Ripley.
24:13Cargill hooking Ripley.
24:13WWE title on the line.
24:15Well, it just goes to show you no matter how impressive
24:18Jake Cargill has been over the past 12 months.
24:22There was a new motivation.
24:24A new focus since dropping the gold.
24:27And week after week, she has had the answers for Rhea Ripley.
24:32Well, this is the moment.
24:34It all looked golden for Rhea Ripley, Charlotte Flair, and Alexa Bliss.
24:38Yeah, but they took their eye off the ball.
24:40Take your eye off Jade Cargill, where Jade Cargill is capable of this.
24:45And most importantly of all, this jaded.
24:49And if Jade Cargill connects with that next week, that clash in Italy,
24:54we will have a new women's WWE champ.
24:57Wait, is Cargill in Ripley's head now?
25:00Absolutely.
25:01How can you not be?
25:02Nobody treats Cargill.
25:04Nobody treats Ripley the way Cargill has done over the past three weeks.
25:11Well, ladies and gentlemen, it is a star-studded night here at Saturday Night's.
