As you can see, my knee is a little bit banged up. I love you guys. You see, Jade, she came into that match, she came with a little bit of a game plan, she came in with a plan to try and take me out, she came in with a plan to try to use the numbers against me. But Jade, you failed to take me out, because I am still your WWE Women’s Champion. And as for the numbers game that you tried to play, well, I had a nice, unexpected friend come out and help me with that little situation, didn’t I?

Charlotte Flair: WOOO! Alright, alright, alright, champ, Mami. Listen, I know that you didn’t ask for my help. And here’s the thing, I am The Queen, I understand not asking for help, I get that, but I had your back, because I respect you. And if I’m being honest, the last few weeks, I’ve actually had a lot of fun teaming alongside you, getting a tattoo after Clash In Italy, and just wrestling beside you after our history. But here’s the thing, The Queen Of The Ring is in the next few weeks, and I am a competitor at heart. I am The Queen. I am Charlotte Flair. I am the 14x Women’s Champion. So, if I’m being honest, as much fun as I’ve had alongside of you, champ, at SummerSlam, it’s gonna be me standing in front of you, because you still have what I want.

Tiffany Stratton: Hi, Rhea, Hi, Bologna, and hi, Charlotte. I know it’s been a while, but you know, if someone were to tell me that we would be out here and not beating the crap out of each other, I would’ve called them crazy.

Charlotte Flair: Hello, Tiffany. Are you here to apologize to me?

Tiffany Stratton: Me, apologize to you? Now, that would be crazy. But I’m not here for you, I’m here for you (Rhea). I may have the US Title, and I look damn good with it, but I think I want that one.

Jade Cargill: Wrap it up, wrap it up. You three look so stupid together. Yes, yes, give it to me. Now, Charlotte, you didn’t save Rhea, but you damn sure put yourself next in line. And seeing how we’re both in the Queen Of The Ring, I’ll make sure that little side quest you pulled is rewarded. I mean, look at your stupid friend, Alexa. Shut up, just shut up. Anyway, and Tiffany, I mean, we’ve been doing this so many times, I suggest you learn your lesson, and stay out of grown folks business. Your mama. Ignore this hater. And Rhea, enjoy my title while you can, because I’m coming for what’s mine. Actually, I’m coming now for what’s mine.

Nick Aldis: Woah, woah, woah, ladies. Jade, hold your horses. Now, Rhea, we both know that you are in no condition to compete here tonight, so let’s all just calm down here for a second.

Charlotte Flair: Wait, wait, Nick, hold on, hold on, I got an idea, and it is what it is. Tiffany, I know that you don’t like me, and trust me, I do not like you, but I don’t like her more. And because my best friend is not here, I got an idea. How about you and one of your sidekicks, backup dancers, face Tiffy and I, here tonight in Bologna, Italy, right now? Let’s go.

Nick Aldis: How interesting. You know, I never let a good idea pass me by, Charlotte. So, Bologna, Jade Cargill and Michin will take on Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton, and that will take place right now.
