00:00Set to go one-on-one here with Gianna Capri.
00:03And we talked about that matchup a couple of weeks ago
00:05between Arun and Diggs.
00:07Peter, how different is this matchup tonight?
00:10You know, similar and different.
00:12Obviously, in terms of new talent,
00:15matching up with someone who's been here on Evolve,
00:18a similarity there.
00:19But style-wise, I mean, I gotta tell you,
00:21I'm still trying to get a read on who Gianna Capri is.
00:23Indeed, as Gianna Capri certainly has made her presence felt
00:26in various ways on Evolve,
00:27but has yet to really stack up the wins
00:29and move right on off the ladder in the Evolve women's division.
00:32Getting by Mason Holiday would certainly be a better recap
00:34and turn the head of Foreman Thatcher.
00:37Watch out pitfall.
00:38In the cover.
00:40I was in Italy last week for Clash in Italy.
00:42I know!
00:42And I was asking many people if they knew Gianna Capri.
00:46Couldn't find anyone who was friends or family.
00:48Really?
00:48Yeah, I was just asking strangers on the street.
00:50That's...
00:50Holding up a picture, saying, do you know Gianna Capri?
00:53Didn't get an answer.
00:54That's a very interesting sample of you.
00:56I was trying to do the research, Blake.
00:57It's called doing the work.
00:58You are an investigative journalist.
01:00Mason Holiday looking to control the pace right here.
01:02And Mason Holiday and Layla Diggs over the last few weeks
01:05have really kind of established themselves in that veteran-like role
01:07on Wednesday nights.
01:09Yeah, that's the thing I like about it.
01:10They've seen the opening by Kendall Gray,
01:13by Callie Armstrong,
01:14and they're taking advantage.
01:16Becoming leaders.
01:17Mason looking to take advantage right here.
01:18Center of the ring.
01:20Only two there for Mason Holiday.
01:22And, of course, we're very excited, Peter.
01:24Three weeks from tonight, Succession 3 back on Tubi.
01:288 p.m. cannot wait.
01:29Yeah, absolutely.
01:30Oh, you're always going to get, as you see,
01:32the VIPs looking on,
01:34you're always going to get multiple title opportunities on Succession
01:38and just a great card every time.
01:40Both the Evolve Championship and the Evolve Women's Championship
01:42look to be on the line right there.
01:44But as we saw with the VIP section with Veronica Haven and Anya Rune,
01:48do those two look up to Gianna Capri?
01:51I can't get the sense if it's a looking up to.
01:55Is there a little bit of fear there?
01:57What is that relationship?
01:59Capri does have more experience inside the ring.
02:01She's toured Japan throughout her career.
02:04And certainly would love to capitalize with a win here over Mason Holiday.
02:07Yeah, but that doesn't give her...
02:08Having more experience does not give you the right to torment
02:11and sort of berate...
02:14Holiday from the outside in.
02:15Sunset flip only to...
02:17You know, berate the other talent in the locker room.
02:20As Capri looks to take advantage off that big stump.
02:24A near fall right there.
02:25Capri going right back to it.
02:27When you think about it,
02:29Gianna Capri is the exact opposite of Mason Holiday.
02:32Gianna Capri chose to attack on Yaru,
02:35berate her after a loss.
02:37And, you know, Mason Holiday decided to step in and say,
02:40hey, chill out.
02:40That's not how we do things here on Evolve.
02:42And, of course, Gianna Capri trying to take advantage as an ID talent,
02:45which we know Sloane Jacobs, a fellow ID talent,
02:48looks to take full advantage later tonight
02:49as she challenges Wendy Chu for the Evolve women's title.
02:52That is a huge, huge mountain to glide for Sloane Jacobs.
02:56And I know you're very much looking forward, Peter.
02:58The in-ring Evolve debut of Elijah Holyfield.
03:02Are you kidding me?
03:04Ooh!
03:05This is going to be so cool.
03:08Elijah Holyfield, his father of one of the most decorated athletes,
03:12and frankly, in American history.
03:14The guy did it all.
03:15Mason Holiday going for that head scissor again,
03:17but Gianna, oh!
03:19Scattered at that time and goes for the knee right after.
03:22Smart move by Sauce there.
03:23Got to hand it to her.
03:24And Capri going for the roll-up.
03:27Capri takes full advantage and steals the victory.
03:30Well, and she also had her armor on the bottom rope.
03:32Here is your winner, Gianna Capri!
03:38Well, that's certainly one way to make a statement, Peter.
03:40It's me!
03:41Yeah, you called it a statement?
03:43She used the rope for leverage.
03:45You know what I am?
03:46You see, I got the job done.
03:47I got the job done.
03:48You can do it every time.
03:50See, she is the one to be there.
03:53I won, I'm a winner.
03:54I represent the ID program, not her!
03:57Well, Veronica, you're going to be me.
03:59Well, Veronica Haven likes what she sees.
04:01Anya Rune didn't like how it goes down.
