00:00Championship opportunity at SummerSlam.
00:02This singular tournament could change the trajectory of your career,
00:07no matter who you are, no matter what you currently find yourself doing or aspiring to.
00:12And I really like Alexa Bliss' chances, and I'll tell you why.
00:16This is a woman who historically has thrived on her own.
00:20We've seen her have success recently alongside Charlotte Flair,
00:22but when Little Miss Bliss doesn't have anyone to look out for but number one,
00:26that's when she's at her best.
00:28Yeah, I agree with you, Corey.
00:29A five-time world champion.
00:31She's won a Money in the Bank.
00:34Bliss with an opportunity tonight to head toward more history.
00:41I feel like bad decisions, but you still want to fight.
00:48I feel like bad decisions, but you still want to fight.
01:09There's a lot of stories to unpack in this matchup here tonight, including swirling around this young woman,
01:16and the current world champion from Judgment Day, Liv Morgan, who is celebrating her birthday here in Paris, France today.
01:25And what a way to celebrate your birthday by having Michael Cole drum up nonsensical controversies about my friends and
01:32I.
01:32That's not how Liv wants to spend her birthday.
01:35She wants to spend it by advancing in the Queen of the Ring tournament, so she gets one step closer
01:40to taking it all.
01:42Okay, so let's talk about this.
01:44First off, last week, Roxanne Perez of the Judgment Day does not advance.
01:47No help at all from anyone within the group.
01:50In this past Friday, Raquel Rodriguez of the Judgment Day actually advances into the semifinals.
01:57She faces E.O. Sky next week in the semifinal matchup.
02:02Now, what happens if Liv wins tonight?
02:03Liv and Raquel will clash down the road.
02:05What do you think is going to happen then?
02:06It's all in the best interest of the Judgment Day.
02:09Liv would love all of the gold for herself, but Liv is smart enough to understand that if all the
02:14gold at least stays in the Judgment Day clubhouse, that's just as good.
02:17Rules in this matchup, first woman of the game, pinfall or submission will win.
02:20No countouts, no disqualifications, and that no disqualification rule came into effect this past Friday on SmackDown when we saw
02:30Dominic Mysterio win the Fatal 4-Way because of a low blow, a legal low blow from Ms. Morgan.
02:36Alexa Bliss looking for Sister Abigail.
02:38And Becky Lynch with a right hand, and now goes right after Chelsea Green.
02:42I love the strategy out of the gate by both Lynch and Bliss.
02:45Both attempted their finishing maneuvers almost immediately, trying to get out of this Fatal 4-Way ASAP.
02:50And now Becky sends Chelsea out to the apron.
02:52This will be a fast-paced matchup.
02:54The winner of this match will advance to take on the winner of Friday night's final first-round matchup in
02:59the Queen of the Ring tournament.
03:00Alexa Bliss, nice dropkick to Becky Lynch.
03:03Bliss, the former five-time world champion, would love to advance in the tournament tonight.
03:09Bliss is able to put the brakes on.
03:11Liv Morgan, nobody home as Bliss delivers a right hand and drops Morgan to the floor.
03:18And now Becky Lynch with a baseball slide.
03:21Bliss is out of the way just in time.
03:25And now, oh, Morgan!
03:27And a cannonball taking out Lynch and Chelsea Green.
03:31Now heading up to the top rope.
03:33Chelsea going to fly.
03:34Cross body!
03:41How obnoxious would she be if she won Queen of the Ring?
03:44Oh!
03:45I think that might be exactly what we need.
03:58Again, the winner of this matchup, Corey, will advance to the semifinals to take on the winner of a Friday
04:04night's SmackDown this coming Friday, their fatal four-way match.
04:07Are you that jaded that you don't remember how much fun we had when Chelsea Green was representing the United
04:12States as United States champion?
04:14Fine.
04:14It was a moment in time.
04:15I can only imagine Chelsea Green as Queen of WWE.
04:19And now Becky Lynch gonna head up to the second rope and deliver a leg drop.
04:26Here's the cover by Becky.
04:29And a kickout.
04:32And again, the official in this matchup, Jessica Carr, who's had many run-ins with Becky Lynch over the past
04:38number of months.
04:40Including the night that Becky lost her championship to Sol Rucca at Clash in Italy.
04:44Jessica Carr has never found a spotlight she doesn't like.
04:47She once stood in line for the opening of a refrigerator.
04:50And here now, Becky Lynch with a running forearm to Bliss.
04:55And there's the Becky Bloater.
04:57And Becky quickly into the cover.
05:00Hooks the inside leg.
05:01Bliss has got to kick out.
05:02And that's what it's going to take.
05:03The sense of urgency displayed by Becky Lynch from the opening bell.
05:07Understanding that moments like this, one-on-one, are few and far between in a fatal four-way environment.
05:11So you have to capitalize on the opportunity presents itself.
05:14Again, the finals come your way two weeks from Saturday.
05:18The night of champions in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
05:21The winner and the queen of the ring will move on to SummerSlam for a world championship opportunity.
05:30Jawbreaker by Bliss.
05:31There's a little space.
05:34Nobody home.
05:35Becky Lynch now caught by Bliss.
05:39now from behind oh backstabber by morgan hook in the leg and a kick out it's interesting
05:47morgan said she was entering this tournament because when she wins she'll challenge the
05:51wwe women's champion so she can have both titles she also says that no one wants to
05:56stand up and try to challenge her for her current championship
