The Street Profits were here to remind us what we saw on the pre-show.  They told us that Alexa and Nikki retained retained.  Before they could get any further, in walked Ric Flair.  Fun stuff ensued!

Bayley will now defend her Smackdown Title against Ember Moon.

Really good back and forth match.  Ember showed a lot here.  The finish came when Ember went up to the top and Bayley caught her for the Bayley To Belly an retained.  It took a while to get the crowd involved but they were into it by the end.

And now the show is being put to the test.  Many times, Shano Mac is where the card makes a right turn at Albuquerque (Bugs Bunny, all rights reserved).  Will that happen now as he takes on Kevin Owens with his career on the line?

Before the bell, Shane is already Sweato Mac.  In the Great White North.  KO is over huge with the crowd.  Before the bell, Sweato brings out a special enforcer, Elias.  Where is Edge to even the odds?

So we are watching Shane dominate when Weezy said, "He has flood pants on" about Shane.  I said, "Of course he does, with all of the water that comes off of him he is trying to keep them dry".  Yeah, that is the first ten minutes or so of this.  The crowd hates Shane.  They love KO.  KO is dominating.  Then KO gets a chair.  Shane said go ahead.  You will get DQ'd. Then Shane hit Elias by accident.  He knocked Shane down and hit a Senton, then a Frog Splash, but Elias pulled him out at two.  It continues.

KO hit a cannonball on both officials.  He was going for Elias but hit both.  He can use the chair now.  Will he?  Sure, why not.  But Elias stopped him.  So KO hit him.  With the chair.  A lot.

KO went to use the chair but the first ref came back in.  KO gave him the chair, and then kicked Sweato in the moist jewels when the ref couldn't see it.  Stunner, 1-2-3.  KO keeps his job.

If Sweato won, I would have hated it.  Since he didn't, it was passable.  But damn, Sweato is so....well....Sweato.  At least the sweat that pours off of him cools off his bright red face.  Yeah, I am kidding.  I think.

We are seeing a recap of the Roman Reigns attacks and Samoa Joe starting a face turn (that I really want to see by the way).  They finished that recap and now we are onto Charlotte vs. Trish.  This is a battle of legends.  Yep, they are both legends. 

Charlotte out first.  Not much reaction.  Can't say I am shocked.  Trish will get a huge pop in a second.

Yep, huge pop for Trish.  She deserves it.

The fans are doing some kind of chant.  Not sure what it is but Charlotte is laughing.  Corey said it was singing O Canada.  Trish used it to start hot.  She was in conrtol until Trish let her guard down and got planted into the ring steps.  She whipped her into the barricade.  Queen in control.  She is abusing Trish. The crowd is quiet as Charlotte beats her up.  Then Trish came back and it got a pop.  Then she ate a kick and hit the floor badly. She took a stiff bump.  She took almost oall of the ten count to get back in and the Queen met her when she did, beating her down some more.  But then she missed a moonsault opening the door.  Trish went on a chop fest but ran into a boot.  She went dfor the headscissors but got caught on the top.  So they threw hands.  Charlotte had a chance at a top rope powerbomb but Trish got the Sunset Flip for a two.

Charlotte got a two with a big kick.  She went back to work.  She went for the Figure Four but got rolled up.  Then Trish locked on the Figure Four.  Then she turned it into the Figure Eight.  Charlotte got to the ropes and the crowd booed.  The fans then gave them a This is Awesome chant.  I won't argue.  Trish hit Statusfaction for two.

They faced off and threw chops.  Trish got the better of it.  Chick Kick for a two.  Both went for a kick but The Queen hit hers.  Figure Four.  Make it Eight.  Trish couldn't take it and tapped out.

Charloote took it in after the match.  The crowd was silent.  They wanted Trish (but it wasn't the right call).  Charlotte left the ring.  Trish was down, then started to stir as the fans chanted Thank You Trish.  She got up and saluted the crowd.  She got to take it all in one last time and go out a winner, even though she lost.  Very cool.
