Jade Cargill video, she’s working out

Tony brings Darby and Sting down, announces Darby has Janela next week in a title defense, Team Taz is outside, say they’re not allowed in, but next week they’ll be there. Starks says he doesn’t think Sting is the same guy he was in the past. The whole thing is hilariously awkward, these segments need some spice or something. Sting says it’s showtime probably.

Britt Baker vs. Thunder Rosa

These two have strong chemistry

Rosa hits air raid crash, DVD both for 2

Reba

Baker hits the claw on Rosa, who’s out anyways, for the win

Earlier, Matt Hardy recruits Hangman for a tag match, Hangman reluctantly says ok, one time.

Wedding of Kip and Penelope

Interview with Kip, Miro (wearing his Raw wedding attire) & Charles- Kip says TOny is lucky to be getting this wedding.

Sinister Minister is the officiant of the ceremony

This feels like an Impact Wrestling thing. Which isn’t a bad thing necessarily.

Sinister Minister tries to do the if anyone has any objections thing, Miro stops him and says nope, we’re not doing that.

Ceremony happens without a hitch, they kiss.

Miro tells Kip, he’s been there, and it’s all about love. He says I don’t have a present for you, because I AM YOUR PRESENT, my knowledge is your present, my visciousness, my experience, my POWER. AND WHAT IS THAT OVER THERE, he attacks a giant box that Charles says is his gift. Nothing is in it, he tells Charles to clean it up, Charles goes down to do that, Charles handcuffs Miro’s leg to the ringpost. Charles attacks Kip, which sends Penelope face first into the cake, she attacks Chuck, Kip joins in, then OC pops up out of the cake. Chuck bashes Kip in the head with a thing, him and OC take off.

On Inside the NBA, Shaq demonstrates the Black Tornado, it’s basically a Judas Effect
