Oba Femi King Of The Ring Celebration

Oba Femi: That’s good, that’s fine. You see, that is a reaction, a reception befitting of a ruler, but now you have to give me a reception befitting a king. So, ladies and gentlemen, your 2026 King Of The Ring, Oba Femi. Very good, very, very good. I told Jey Uso that destiny was on my side. He didn’t believe until he stepped into this ring with me. Now he’s a believer. But now that destiny has played out, she’s not finished with me, she’s still kind to me. So, ladies and gentlemen, a choice has to be made.

– Brock Lesnar comes down to the ring with Paul Heyman. Brock starts clapping his hands for Oba.

Brock Lesnar: Ladies and gentlemen, your King Of The Ring, Oba Femi. My apologies, Oba, I have not watched the show, everybody knows I don’t watch the show, but congratulations, alright. That’s a hell of a feat, King Of The Ring. You know, I was King Of The Ring at one time, a long time ago. Now, because I don’t watch the show, I got to rely on Mr. Heyman over here, and Mr. Heyman tells me that you’ve got a pretty big decision to make. Maybe I can help you with that. Paul also tells me that you’re very good at calling names, like, when I’m not here, you call Brock Lesnar a coward. When I’m not here, you call Brock Lesnar a bitch. He also tells me that you cut a great promo, which I never really could, that’s why I have Mr. Heyman here. But Oba, you know what they say, talk shit, get hit.

Brock delivers the low blow. Brock drops Oba with The F5. Heyman gives Brock props for cutting a hell of a promo. Oba rises back on his feet.

Oba Femi: Hey, this is exactly what you always do, you show up, you F5 and you leave. And you said I called you names behind your back, well, guess what, you’re in front of me, and you’re still a bitch. So, here’s the deal, we can play cats and rats, forever or we can settle the score. Me and you, one-on-one, Oba Femi versus Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam. What’s it going to be?

Brock Lesnar: I accept, Oba, but here’s one condition. I’m going to one up you, Oba. SummerSlam. Minneapolis. Hell In A Cell.

– Coming out of the commercial break, Paul Heyman is telling Adam Pearce that he is losing money if he’s not printing out t-shirts for Brock Lesnar versus Oba Femi inside Hell In A Cell at SummerSlam.

Austin Theory joins the conversation. He can’t believe that Heyman is here. Theory says that he has a match tonight, and he should come down to the ring with him. Theory didn’t know that Heyman was coming tonight, well, he sure as hell knows now. Heyman walks away from Theory. Theory is left confused. Pearce walks up to Oba Femi. Femi says that the titles will always be there, he’ll take it when he wants it. Femi is 100% sure that he wants to fight Brock Lesnar in Hell In A Cell.

Joe Hendry Concert

Joe Hendry: Say his name, because he has appeared. Now, who’s ready for a Joe Hendry Concert? Now, we can’t get started until we introduce our special guests. So, I want everyone to make some noise for our new World Tag Team Champions, The Street Profits.

Montez Ford: Don’t I look good in a suit? But WWE Universe, we are so overwhelmed with the support and love you have showed us for the last week. Now, the love is unexpected, and that is the reason why we have a few people to thank. First of all, the WWE Universe. Nah, Dawkins, I don’t think they heard me, I said, the WWE Universe. Hey, man, we just wanted to thank y’all for rocking with me and my brother for the last ten years and always believing that the profits are up. Secondly, I’m sweating, you may know him as a Visionary, you may know him as a Revolutionary, and this industry knows him as the greatest of all-time in this mat, I’m talking about Seth Freakin’ Rollins.

Angelo Dawkins: YEAH! Hey, look, thanks to Seth, all that karma caught up to The Vision, and now we’re looking at those boys from the rear-view mirror, baby.

Montez Ford: And last but not least, Atlantic City, we got to thank the main man you came to see tonight, Joe Hendry. Because Joe, last week, in the Tag Team Championship Match, oh, man, it was beautiful. It was Dawks, it was me, it was you, it was Seth, it was the WWE Universe, it was like a beautiful song.

Angelo Dawkins: Yeah, it was a beautiful song, and I think it sounded just like this.

Joe Hendry: We’ve got new Tag Team Champs, everyone please make some noise. We’re in Atlantic City, a celebration with all the boys. There will be no Bron Breakker, and we won’t hear Logan talk. There will be no Paul Heyman, because he’s occupied with Brock Lesnar. And then there’s Austin Theory. Austin Theory cries himself asleep at night, since John Cena destroyed him on the mic. Now he’s in The Vision, and no one cares.

Austin Theory: Cut the music, cut it. Well, well, well, looks like we got the thieves in the ring that stole my Tag Team Championships. And what was that, Joe? You mentioned John Cena, the same John Cena that I beat at WrestleMania. And all of y’all out here jumping around, being excited and celebrating, but I’m a little confused, maybe it’s because I know something that you don’t. I’ve already talked to Adam Pearce, and next week, there’s going to be a rematch for those Tag Team Championships.

Angelo Dawkins: I mean, hey if that’s really what you want, but is The Dog going to be healthy enough? He’s looking a little banged up, but if you really want him to get hurt again, then that’s on your hands, fam.

Austin Theory: Oh, it’s on my hands, fam. Let me tell you something, next week, The Dog is going to be off the leash. And Joe, man, I gotta say, I really appreciate making your last song tonight about me, because just like you said, John Cena destroyed me on the mic, but just like I’m about to destroy your ass in this ring tonight.

Joe Hendry: You’re going to destroy me in this ring? I have to say, Joe says no. And you know what, since you interrupted my concert, we could wait till later or we could do this, right here, right now.

Liv Morgan: Wow, Iyo, wow, wow, wow. You know what? I actually thought you were better than this. Are you proud of yourself? Are you actually proud of yourself, because the way you’re bragging in that ring right now, as if you beat me fair and square at Night Of Champions is making me sick. You got lucky, Iyo, the only reason why you beat me is because I got cursed by stupid Danhausen. So, at SummerSlam, I promise, things are going to be different, and do you want to know why? Because now, now I don’t respect you, because now you piss me off. So, maybe I’ll take this opportunity to remind you what happens when you get on my bad side. Finn Balor, turned on by his own group. Stephanie Vaquer, Iyo, tell me when is the last time you saw Stephanie Vaquer around here? And Rhea Ripley, oh, you guys like that one. Iyo, I took everything from Rhea Ripley and she hasn’t been the same since. So, I promise you, at SummerSlam, I am going to absolutely destroy you and remain the greatest Women’s World Champion of all-time.

Lyra Valkyria Promo 

Why is everyone so on my back about what happened in London? It takes two to lose a tag team title match, and Bayley and I let the frustration get the better of us. I just think it’s so unfair that I let the anger get the better of me, one time. And everyone just keeps forgetting that I’ve been the bigger person for a year. I’m not proud of what happened, but I’m not losing any sleep over it either. I have bit my tongue and carried the load, and sacrificed my success, over and over, because I wanted to bring Bayley to the top with me. Everyone already knows that I could do it by myself, I was the first ever Women’s Intercontinental Champion. I put my trust in someone who’s supposed to be one of the best, and now there’s a huge gap between who I am and who I could be. I never wanted to hurt Bayley, but last week, it felt so good to close that gap, just a little.

Roman Reigns & Seth Rollins Segment 

Roman Reigns: Atlantic City. Acknowledge Me!

– Seth Rollins makes his way down to the ring. We got long dueling chants for both superstars.

Seth Rollins: Hello, my brother. 14 years, you and I have been tied together, from this moment, all the way to the formation of The Shield. You call it fate, you call it destiny, you call it whatever you want, but it feels very fitting to me that we are here, in this moment, right here in Atlantic City. And you are in possession of a title that belongs to me. And yes, my brother, it is time to collect.

Roman Reigns: Collect? You must be confused, you’re the back of the line. You hadn’t done anything of late to earn a shot at The Tribal Chief.

Seth Rollins: Look, you can play that game with everybody else in that locker room, you can’t play with me. When it comes to you, I am always at the front of the line. Because for everything that you have done, you owe me. And for everything that you’ve become, everything that you are, I own you. I own your ass in this ring, I owe you up here, and I own you right here (pointing at the title). And I have for the last 14 years, you want proof, let’s go back to WrestleMania 41, Triple Threat Match, I pinned you in the center of this ring and took your wiseman. Walk it back, a year before that, WrestleMania XL, I sacrificed myself, so Cody Rhodes could end your reign of terror. Speaking of that reign of terror, for four years, four years, you were unstoppable, you beat everybody, except one person. I could walk it back even further if you want, I could walk it back to the greatest cash-in in the history of WrestleMania, I took your main event, and you couldn’t do a damn thing about it. I’ve owned you since the day I put a steel chair in your back and ended The Shield. I’m not here to ask you for anything, Roman. Matter of fact, I’m here to give you something, I’m here to give you something nobody else in the world could give you. And I’ll tell you why, because everything that you say you are, everything these people believe you are, you are that great. You have done it all. You have won every title there is to win. You have main evented every show there is to main event. Your WrestleMania main event record will never, ever, ever be broken. But there is one thing in your career that you have not been able to do, beat me. I’m here to give you that opportunity, and I’m going to be real with you, right now, man. I’m gonna be real with all of you right now.

This, this maybe your last chance to close that loop. You and me, we came into this company together, we came through that crowd, we knocked down the door, we kicked the old generation to the curb, we made this place our own, we created the greatest generation in the history of this industry, you and me, we did that together. But man, we are much closer to the end than we are to the beginning. Just like it was when we came in, young, hungry, ready to takeover, there’s a new generation of young men and women coming in and ready to do the same thing to us. So, I say again, this maybe our last chance to do this dance, brother. What do you want your legacy to be? When you are retired, you will go down as one of the greatest of all-time, no doubt about it, probably number one. You are a surefire Hall Of Famer. Hell, they should just give you your own Hall Of Fame show. You’ll be the only one, and I might even be there to induct you. But if you don’t accept this challenge, you will never be able escape the ghost of Seth Rollins. What do you say, brother? For old time sakes?

Roman Reigns: It’s been a long time since I’ve heard any truth coming out of your mouth, little brother. But you’re right, I don’t want to beat you, I need to beat you. I need my entire family to witness me beating you. And at SummerSlam, that’s exactly what I’m going to do. I accept, brother.
