In-Ring: The Usos, Solo Sikoa, Paul Heyman, The Judgment Day

We go live into the Simmons Bank Arena. The Usos make their way to the ring alongside Solo Sikoa and Paul Heyman.

Tonight, Brock Lesnar and Cody Rhodes will be in the building. Seth “Freakin” Rollins will also battle The Miz. Austin Theory also battles United States Champion Austin Theory.

The Bloodline is in the ring. The crowd loudly boos them. Jey Uso says, “Little Rock, Arkansas… the Bloodline is now in your city!”

Paul Heyman receives the microphone from Jey. Heyman says, “Ladies…” and scoffs that there could be any ladies in Little Rock. Heyman introduces himself and says he is the Special Counsel to your Tribal Chief, the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns. Heyman is also honored to be the Wise Man to the entire Bloodline. Heyman has information tonight…

The Judgment Day’s music cuts him off. Finn Bálor, Damian Priest, Dominik Mysterio, and SmackDown Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley make their way to the ring. The Judgment Day stands on the apron and stares at the Bloodline. They get in the ring and stand across from them. Damian Priest says, “Paul…” and walks over to Solo Sikoa. Heyman holds Sikoa back and keeps him calm. Heyman shakes hands with Priest. Heyman says it’s a very good day to be a very bad guy. If there is a heaven, none of them are getting into it. A short-term deal engineered, conceived of, and approved by your Tribal Chief Roman Reigns.

Jey Uso says they haven’t heard anything about this deal. Heyman says the Tribal Chief didn’t want anyone on their side except for Solo Sikoa to know. The Trible Chief wanted his Usos to be caught off guard by the enormity of this short-term deal. Even Mr. Bálor is not that happy about this because he has deep-rooted anger issues toward the Bloodline. Heyman doesn’t blame him. Mr. Bálor will put his feelings aside for good short-term villainy. The Judgment Day has a Bad Bunny concern, and Solo is an expert at assuaging concerns. Rhea Ripley stares a hole through Sikoa, so Heyman asks Jey to switch spots with him. Ripley moves over to stare at Sikoa again. A “Rhea” chant starts to pick up. Heyman asks if everything is ok. Ripley leans over and simply says, “…for now.”

Heyman says the Judgment Day needs something taken care of in Bad Bunny. Solo will take care of that before their concerns become a problem. The Bloodline has problems. They have a Kevin Owens problem. They have a Sami Zayn problem. They have a Riddle to solve. At Backlash, they will have a 6-Man Tag Team Match with Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, and Matt Riddle taking on the Bloodline. They will have a tune-up to Backlash by facing the Judgment Day. Also tonight, Solo Sikoa will face the Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio. Heyman apologizes to Dominik for having to see him in person.

In-Ring: Trish Stratus

WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus makes her way to the ring to boos from the crowd. Stratus is in the ring and wants to take us on a history lesson. When she first came to WWE, Women’s Wrestling was a joke. Trish then proceeded to singlehandedly change everything. She brought credibility to a nonexistent Women’s Division. Some will say it was her AND Lita, but there is no “we.” It was her. Trish says she was the Women’s Division. She was THE trailblazer. She was the first woman to main event Raw. She was the first woman to make people care about the Women’s Division. Without Trish Stratus, there would be no Women’s Revolution or women in the main event of WrestleMania. When Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, and Ronda Rousey were wrestling in the main event, people chanted, “This is awesome.” They should have been chanting, “Thank you, Trish.” You wouldn’t believe that if you listen to Becky Lynch. Lynch would have you believe the Women’s Revolution started with the “Four Horseladies.” That statement, like Becky Lynch, is a joke.

Trish sat back and watched for a while, but after a while, she started thinking Becky believed her own hype. Trish popped in and buddied up with Becky to see if it was true. Not once did Becky thank her for what Trish did for her. Becky is very convincing. She convinced even Lita, who ate out of the palm of her hands. Lita became Becky’s little sidekick. Trish Stratus is nobody’s sidekick. Trish shows herself off and says she is not a sidekick. Trish had to take Lita out of the picture to put her out of her misery. She needed Lita out of the picture because she needed it to be crystal clear that the person that screwed Lynch out of the titles was Trish. Trish asks Becky if she remembers putting her arm around her shoulders and saying they had a good try before saying she was her friend. Trish is not her friend and there will not be a next time. Trish decided to make things right and took out The Man. The crowd boos. Trish says she doesn’t care what the crowd thinks. She wasn’t going to let Becky Lynch or the fans rewrite history. She is not a nostalgia act, a childhood fantasy, or a sidekick. She is the greatest of all time and the single most important figure in the history of WWE. Trish is here to make sure no one forgets it. Trish drops the microphone and walks off to boos from the crowd.

Backstage: Cody Rhodes

Cody Rhodes will battle Brock Lesnar in Puerto Rico at WWE Backlash.

Cathy Kelley is backstage with “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes. Rhodes says he is happy that he gets Brock Lesnar in Puerto Rico in three weeks, but he’s also confused. Rhodes had to fight off 20 security guards, but Brock Lesnar did nothing. Where were the security guards when Lesnar did what he did to Rhodes a few weeks ago? Rhodes has to fight back and smash the beast.
