We are back and Blake Monroe makes her way to the ring.
Blake reminds Booker what her name is (after last week). She tells him to learn it and love it or he will end up in a medical facility like Jordynne Grace.
Why Jordynne Grace? The answer is so simple. Jordynne isn't good enough. You can all relate to it, but there are protein shakes with more personality than her. She is a background player. This is the deepest division in women's wrestling. You can't have a champion who looks like 'this' and we see old photos of Jordynne. Blake says you are saying that Jordynne has transformed herself. She is alone and she does not see a juggernaut in the mirror. She is not championship material, that is gym membership material.
Blake says she is star power and what you build a brand about. WWE knew about her before she started to wrestle. She convince you to buy her stuff to look like her. When you look this good, you don't have to change a thing. She is not here to play nice. You can feel bad for JG but she cannot carry the division.
Lola Vice comes out and she tells Blake to shut her mouth. How can you be so beautiful but so ugly inside. She says Blake is right. We have the deepest women's division, but you are not going to be the champ of it. You want to talk about star power. That is flying around the world to represent WWE in AAA, not taking photos backstage. She made news dancing with Nikki Bella.
Jaida Parker interrupts and she comes to the ring and she says all she keeps hearing is Evolution This and Viral moments That. She says she doesn't need no Bella Twin or betrayal to make noise. She sys you saw what she did to Jazmyn Nyx. She says she is coming after the title.
Blake says you are just going to be little JG Juniors.
Jorydnne Grace's music plays and it is Kelani Jordan and she says she isn't the Jordynne you are looking for. She says NXT represented at Evolution. She says she is not here to talk about the past, but to talk about the future. You cannot talk about the future without talking about her. She tells Blake to prove it against a former champion. On your best day, you can't do it like Lani.
Blake says it is cute that you got some personality. She suggests putting Jordan in a medical facility.

Blake seeks refuge in Jaida's arms and Jaida pushes her away.

Shawn congratulates Tatum for the big win. Shawn says Tatum has a title match next week and Izzi is 'happy' for Tatum.
Izzi says Sol got lucky at the Great American Bash so they will all be in her corner next week.
Tatum is so happy and we see Luca Crusifino says that no family lasts forever.
