Wade Barrett and Joe Tessitore welcome the crowd to the show from the ring. Tessitore throws to a video package highlighting Jey Uso’s Intercontinental Championship victory last week on Raw.

In-Ring Segment: The New Intercontinental Champion Jey Uso

Jey talks to us as he walks through the corridor to enter the arena. Jey embraces his son before entering via the crowd. Before Jey can speak, the crowd drowns him out with “you deserve it” chants. Jey says he’s going to fight anyone who wants a shot. Jey does a call and responds, telling the crowd how much he loves them while they Yeet. The crowd continues their Yeeting while Jey notes that his family made it hard for him; Roman Reigns made it hard for him; his whole career, he was just a twin, and they didn’t know him.. but they know him now, YEET.

Jey says that he spoke to his mother before the title match, and she told him to show them who he is. Jey proclaims that he did it. Bron Breakker interupts. Breakker says he isn’t here to crash the party. He’s here because of the respect he has for that championship. After last week, Breakker respects Jey, too.

Breakker admits that the previous week, Jey was the better man. The crowd boos as Breakker tells Jey he’s not going to Spear him. Breakker wanted to be the first person to come here and congratulate Jey. Breakker offers Jey a handshake. Jey cautiously accepts. Breakker starts to leave. Jey tells Breakker that there are some dogs here. Breakker smiles and walks away.

Grade: C+

Jey lost himself a few times during this, which is understandable since he still feels the effects of his emotional title win. Considering the subject matter of his promo, that actually added to the emotional weight of the segment, whereas in other situations, it would completely tank the promo. With WarGames approaching, seeing how Jey gets back in The Bloodline’s crosshairs will be interesting. It’s inevitable, and it will likely lead to Jey losing the IC title. Breakker showed a shocking amount of restraint by not attacking Jey. Unless Breakker attacks Jey later, this writer has no idea what direction they are taking him.

Rey Mysterio vs. Xavier Woods

Mysterio takes control early on, sending Woods out of the ring with a rana. Mysterio dives off the apron and crashes into Woods with a seated senton. After the break, Mysterio continues working over Woods, landing another seated senton and a springboard crossbody. Woods ducks a 619 and tries a slam. Mysterio slips down into a Beast Choker. Woods frantically tries to escape. Woods … accidentally… pulls off Mysterio’s mask! Mysterio covers his face. Woods rolls up Mysterio for the win!

Winner- Xavier Woods

Grade: C

HA! Are we getting heel Xavier Woods? Is this going to lead to heel New Day ??? This writer was ready to dump all over this match, but if you look at how we got to this match, the finish was perfect. The match is self was essentially just Mysterio’s greatest hits, which makes sense since the point here was to show Woods being outmatch and squeaking out a tainted victory. Mysterio has a gripe, Woods has plausible deniability, and everyone wins. Can’t wait to see what happens with this story next.

Lyria Valkyria vs. Zoey Stark w/Shayna Baszler and Sonya Deville

Valkyria starts hot with a flurry of offense, capped with a dropkick through the ropes. After the break, Stark is working over Valkyria. Valkyria fires up and sends Stark flying with a rana. Stark surprises Valkyria with a beautiful springboard dropkick. Valkyria counters the Z360. Deville and Baszler distract the referee while Valkyria has a pin. Deville blasts Valkyria with a running knee to the face. Stark lands the Z360 for the win. After the match, Pure Fusion Collective attacks Valkyria. Kayden Carter and Kitana Chance (wearing a protective face mask) hit the ring and make the save. Carter and Chance flatten Deville and Baszler with a Keg Stand.

Winner- Zoey Stark
