00:00Right.
00:01Keep it coming, keep it coming.
00:02Come on.
00:02Hey, you are here.
00:05Speaking of now.
00:40Rhea Bloody Ripley, the eradicator with that well-earned gold in hand.
00:46And as you say, Joe, this certainly is the now, but is it going to be the now in 48
00:52hours'
00:53time at Clash in Italy?
00:55Because to be quite frank, Rhea Ripley has simply not had an answer to the physical
01:01might of Jade Cargill in weeks.
01:04The champ may be going into Clash in Italy this Sunday as a major underdog.
01:14She has never backed away from the biggest challenges.
01:18She climbed the mountain again at WrestleMania 42 in Vegas.
01:26And Barcelona is showering Mami with love.
01:32I don't know how smart getting in the ring with Jade Cargill, BFAB and Meechan this close
01:39to that championship defense really is.
01:50I'll eat sleepy, demons in your dreams
01:57I'll eat sleepy
02:39Jade, every time I'm
02:42Every single week, you come out here trying to throw around your dominance.
02:50Acting like 90% of your success
02:53isn't from you using people to try and make yourself look better.
03:03And
03:04the detail that you continue to forget is that when it's just you and
03:11me in this ring, I beat you.
03:23I beat you at WrestleMania.
03:28And this Sunday, I'm gonna beat you again.
03:35So you can continue to throw around your self-proclaimed
03:40dominance.
03:42Because when the match is done, you will be looking up at your true champion.
04:05Do you hear how stupid you sound?
04:11You really think this division revolves around you?
04:20No, no, no.
04:21These women that you talk about, they're with me because they want a piece of power.
04:30And you, you're so damn weak that you're willing to work with women who don't even like you.
04:45Well, if you want to reference who's been by her side lately, look no further than two living legends, including
04:54the Queen.
04:55Hail the Queen.
05:08Oh, my God.
05:35It's been Alexa Bliss who's been fostering the teamwork of Rhea and Charlotte.
05:43Formed a well-oiled unit with Rhea, bloody Ripley out Saturday night's main event,
05:49albeit picking up a loss in the process.
06:16Okay, Jade, out here talking like you're a Hall of Famer or something.
06:21You've been here, what, five minutes?
06:26No, no, no, no, no, no, Jade, I respect how far you've come.
06:30But don't confuse your own hype for actual accomplishments.
06:36Wait, wait, hold up, hold up, hold up.
06:37You got some nerve talking to the future WWE champion like that.
06:42Listen, princess, if I wanted input from one of Jade's accessories, I'd just ask.
06:51And Jade, you keep talking about how you're the future, but you might wanna make sure
06:56that the future's actually accomplished something before you start lecturing us.
07:00Now I'll give you this, you do have the ego of a legend, but against us-
07:13Against us, you have the resume of a rookie.
07:18Excuse me?
07:18You heard me.
07:20Little girl.
07:21I'm not gonna be talked down by somebody that's Charlotte Flair's rag doll.
07:27That's cute.
07:28Hey, Jade, word of advice in this business.
07:31I like to give the people that go against me the courtesy of a warning.
07:34So this is your one warning.
07:37I've gone toe to toe with people on the mic and in this ring,
07:41people that are way better than you.
07:45So do not make me embarrass you before your career's even started.
07:55Ladies, ladies, pardon the interruption.
08:04But Jade, if you're as confident as you claim to be, and Alexa, if you're looking for a fight
08:10as badly as you claim to be, then Barcelona, are you thinking what I'm thinking?
08:18Let's stop talking about it and let's stop being about it.
08:21Let's get a referee out here and let's do Jade Cargill and Alexa Bliss out right now.
08:27Oh, yes, that's how we're going to start the Euro Tour.
08:32Why not?
08:34Lexi, Jade, let's do it.
08:46The first ever premium live event to be held in Italy.
08:51High stakes, high pressure.
08:54This is what we call must-see.
09:09Well, we were just reminded again, Wade, that big things come in small packages.
09:14And Jade Cargill is going to have to test that theory a little bit here.
09:17Alexa Bliss was never going to back down.
09:20Nick Aldis, the general manager, came out right away.
09:23And here we are, Jade Cargill, Alexa Bliss from Barcelona.
09:28Yeah, I got to tell you, I like this from Alexa Bliss.
09:30Just a little reminder of who I am, Jade Cargill.
09:34That is a five-time world champion, Alexa Bliss.
09:38And all the power of Jade Cargill coming to the floor early in this one.
09:42Speaking of power, all the power, that's ringside because of these two in the ring.
09:46Well, I'll tell you right now, Joe, the whole world loves the fact we are getting this match,
09:51probably none more so than WWE women's champ Rhea Ripley, who stood at ringside knowing
09:57full well A, she gets a close-up view of Sunday's opponent.
10:01And B, there's a good chance that Alexa Bliss can cause some major physical damage to the
10:07challenger this Sunday at Clash in Italy.
10:10Yeah, we are only 48 hours away from Clash in Italy.
10:13And that loaded card that will air at 2 p.m. Eastern in the United States on ESPN.
10:19And of course, it will feature the WWE Women's Championship match as Jade Cargill gets her
10:26rematch against the champ Rhea Ripley.
10:28Right now, it is Alexa Bliss who looks to control action early on.
10:33Reminder, later tonight, the face-to-face between Gunther and Cody Rhodes.
10:37There is the strength and power.
10:39And right on the back, what damage done.
10:42Immediately from the off, we saw the difference in these two competitors.
10:46The raw power of Jade Cargill and the movement and aerial skills of Alexa Bliss,
10:52which worked great until she stopped in her tracks like we just saw.
10:57And you see the quick decisions and perhaps the speed of Alexa Bliss coming into play.
11:02And then there's all that veteran experience to take on a challenge like this,
11:07as Jade is in her physical prime and gunning to reclaim gold.
11:11This could be ugly, Joe.
11:13This could be really ugly for Bliss.
11:14Would you look at this military press-
11:16Jade Cargill with Alexa Bliss right over her head in the center of the ring.
11:22Yeah.
11:22Oh!
11:23Making eye contact with Rhea Ripley on the outside in the process.
11:29Real message going the way of the champ, 48 hours away from that championship defense.
11:34See Alexa Bliss reaching for her ribs.
11:37Oh!
11:38But smart to get out of the way just in time,
11:40or else that elbow would have done even more damage to that area.
11:43When you are as strong and dominant as Jade Cargill is,
11:48sometimes that can lead to overconfidence as we just saw there.
11:52And now this is Bliss's turn to try and retake control.
11:55Got it lined up from the apron.
11:57Oh my!
11:59Cargill!
11:59And Jade.
12:02Oh!
12:02A powerbomb!
12:03Right on the edge of the barrier!
12:07Oh!
12:07How brutal was that?
12:22So Alexa Bliss thought she had Jade Cargill in perfect position as she came off the apron,
12:30and then Cargill, more damage to the back, was able to secure her in midair and powerbomb
12:38her wave onto the barrier.
12:41Yeah, and once you execute a move like that against an opponent,
12:44you really do have all the time in the world to gloat and enjoy yourself,
12:49regardless of the caliber of the opponent that's a five-time world champion.
12:53And now is the opportunity for Jade Cargill to really turn up the dial
12:58and send a major message to Rhea Bloody Ripley.
13:02And just looking at Rhea Ripley as well as Charlotte Flair here ringside,
13:05a great concern for Alexa Bliss after what she just had to take,
13:10that damage that was taken on the outside.
13:14Hey, come on, I got the rope, come on!
13:16And her knee just driving down that throat against the rope.
13:24Well, Alexa Bliss made out that it was Jade Cargill who was a little overconfident and
13:29arrogant earlier tonight.
13:30It may have, in fact, been Alexa Bliss being a little too confident,
13:34challenging Jade Cargill's raw power when she's in this kind of form.
13:41Because Meechan and B-Fab on the outside loving everything they are seeing.
13:49As we just saw, these six women were out here on the floor right now a week ago.
13:55But in two days, it'll be the spotlight on Jade Cargill and Rhea Ripley.
14:03And she plays to the crowd here in Barcelona.
14:07And there's just nothing coming back the other way from Alexa Bliss at this point.
14:11Come on, Lex!
14:14Jade just keeps delivering more and more.
14:17You do get the sense Jade could end this any time she wanted,
14:20but she is prolonging the agony.
14:28Intense look on the face of Charlotte Flair.
14:31Alexa Bliss's tag partner for the past 12 months and indeed Rhea Ripley.
14:46The crowd trying to rally support for Alexa.
14:49As Charlotte and Rhea have been looking on with great concern.
14:53And Alexa fighting back with a series of body blows.
14:58Well, Alexa Bliss needs all the help she can get at this point in the match after
15:02sustaining so much damage to that frame.
15:05And that frame is now crumbling in the face of pure power.
15:11One, two, three.
15:13She's doing push-ups in the middle of the ring.
15:31A heated exchange opened up SmackDown between Alexa Bliss and Jade Cargo.
15:35And Alexa looks at Jade and says,
15:37I've gone toe-to-toe with the very best in the business.
15:39Don't make me embarrass you.
15:40A match was made and then just moments ago a vicious powerbomb
15:44on the exterior barrier has changed the tone of this Wade.
15:48And Jade Cargo is now relentless in destroying the frame of Alexa Bliss
15:53as helplessly looking on.
15:56Charlotte Flair and the WWE women's champ Rhea Bloody Ripley
16:01who's going to be facing this from Jade Cargo in just 48 hours time.
16:06Flash in Italy Sunday from Turin, Italy.
16:09And she's up to Moore on the outside here.
16:12Alexa, thankfully for it, breaks free and delivers a drop kick.
16:15She absolutely needed that.
16:17She had been sustaining damage for quite a while in this match.
16:22Well, Jade Cargo had done so much damage.
16:25Oh, Jade runs her knee right into the steel steps, Wade.
16:28Bliss just hyper-aware of a small opportunity opening up
16:33and she's not going to let it slide.
16:35This could be a turning point.
16:36You mentioned the fact that we're only 48 hours away
16:39from Jade challenging Ripley for the women's championship
16:42and now she just ran her knee into the steel steps.
16:45Well, Jade has been so dominant for the past four weeks since returning.
16:49A loss here would be disastrous for the confidence of the challenger this Sunday.
16:55Alexa Bliss has regained momentum here in Barcelona.
16:59And this audience has regained their belief in Alexa Bliss.
17:05As she comes forward, that flipping senton.
17:09That durability of a five-time world champion.
17:13She is in complete control into the cover.
17:16And Jade is able to get the right shoulder off.
17:21The seriously weakened now is Jade Cargo.
17:24And this one has done a 180 in record time.
17:27And it's Cargo who is clinging onto the match now.
17:31Sister Abigail DDT lined up.
17:33Oh, Jade able to reverse things.
17:35Too much left in the tank for Jade Cargo.
17:38But for how much longer?
17:39Oh, hold on.
17:41B-Fab and Meechan getting involved.
17:43And taking out Alexa's legs.
17:45A perfect timing behind the ref's back.
17:47Oh, and here goes Rhea.
17:48Here goes Charlotte.
17:50Charlotte and Rhea are going to clean it up ringside.
17:55Well, this Barcelona audience loving what they're seeing.
17:59And so must be Alexa Bliss.
18:02Slowly getting her bearings back.
18:04And Cargo's in trouble.
18:05Oh, Bliss DDT.
18:07Jade Cargo is down.
18:10The DDT hit.
18:12Oh, and she may be in the drop zone, Wade.
18:15Well, Jade Cargo is absolutely clueless as to where she's at.
18:19Alexa Bliss.
18:20Bang on the money here.
18:22And we have a victor.
18:24Twisted.
18:25Oh, knees up.
18:27Knees up when she went for Twisted Bliss.
18:30Perfect timing from Cargo.
18:33And it had to be.
18:34Massive pump kick.
18:36Jade Cargo.
18:39Jade Cargo.
18:40Jade it.
18:41What a destructive way to go about it.
18:47Here is your winner, Jade Cargo.
18:52Rhea.
18:53Well, it looked like it was going to be a walk in the park for Jade Cargill.
18:58But of course, Alexa Bliss with her caliber.
19:01She fought back.
19:02She fought back valiantly.
19:04Almost took the win.
19:06But ultimately, the challenge.
19:07She's grabbing a steel chair.
19:09She's grabbing a steel chair.
19:10Well, they're grabbing a steel chair.
19:11And of course, Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley now nowhere to be seen.
19:18Steel chair in hand as Alexa Bliss was just jaded.
19:24Alexa is not even barely coming to.
19:26She's trying to find her wits and find her way around.
19:29Whoa, no.
19:30No, no.
19:31Putting her up for Jade and on a steel chair.
19:35Yet another major warning shot to Rhea Ripley.
19:40Just 48 hours ahead of Clash in Italy.
19:44Jade Cargill is one dangerous woman.
19:46Remember, Charlotte and Rhea had a deal with B-Fab and Meachin.
19:50And now here they come after witnessing that.
19:53They've gotten backstage to fight them off.
19:57And now they're back in the ring to check out Alexa.
20:02Just a little too late for Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair.
20:06Major damage sustained by Alexa Bliss after an incredible match.
20:10But the entire focus now shifts to Sunday where Rhea Ripley defends against that woman,
20:18Jade Cargill at Clash in Italy.
20:20Now it's tough to see when someone like Alexa takes damage.
20:43How's she doing?
20:44Well, how do you think she is?
20:46She's in a lot of pain and pissed off.
20:48And quite frankly, so am I.
20:50So the next time I see Jade-
20:52Don't worry about Jade, okay?
20:53Look, I'm gonna handle her at Clash in Italy.
20:55You gotta have to worry about it.
20:56Well, if you don't, I will.
21:00She has a receipt coming.
21:04Jade Cargill.
