    From WrestlingRumors.net@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jun 11 12:44:24 2019
    [continued from previous message]

    Lacey says Becky doesn’t know anything about her and she won’t stop until she has everything she wants. She hears fear in Becky’s voice and it’s the fear of fading back down into obscurity. The stench of fear is nasty and she’ll be Becky No Belts at Stomping Grounds. Becky says she’ll be taking a slap upside the head and another loss.

    Nikki Cross asks Alexa Bliss about what happened last week but tonight
    Bliss is in a champions vs. challengers match tonight. Bliss accuses Bayley
    of being two faced and says you can only try to convince people you’re something you’re not for so long. She’s totally Cross’ friend though.

    It’s time for MizTV, because having a short match in between these segments is just out of the question. This week’s guest is Samoa Joe, who does not like being called the NEW United States Champion. Rey Mysterio stole his
    title and then Joe had the chance to win it back. Miz calls him out on
    being handed the title back and jumping Mysterio last week. Joe: “Yeah, so?”

    On top of that, Joe brought in Rey’s son Dominic, which Miz finds uncool.
    You don’t do that to a man’s family so Joe is ready to fight. This brings out Braun Strowman who wants a fight with Joe. It also brings out Bobby Lashley, who isn’t done with Strowman. He wants a title shot, but here’s Ricochet to add his name to the list as well. Before he can get that out though, Cesaro interrupts and punches Ricochet in the face. The brawl is on
    and the good guys clean house to set up the six man tag.
    Samoa Joe/Bobby Lashley/Cesaro vs. The Miz/Ricochet/Braun Strowman

    Strowman starts fast with a leapfrog over Lashley and a clothesline,
    followed by a tag to Miz for the running corner clothesline. It’s off to Cesaro but Ricochet comes in for the running flip dive to the floor. The standoff takes us to a break and we come back with Ricochet in trouble. Cesaro’s uppercut sends him outside but an enziguri drops Lashley.

    That’s enough for the hot tag to Miz, who hits running knees and
    clotheslines in the corner. Joe gets kicked off the apron and a DDT plants Cesaro, setting up the YES Kicks to Lashley and Cesaro. Lashley gets up and plants Miz though, allowing the tag off to Joe. Strowman is knocked off the apron so he pulls Lashley to the floor, leaving Miz to take the Swing from Cesaro.

    Miz is fine enough to kick Cesaro away though and it’s off to Strowman for the running splashes in the corner. That’s enough for Joe, who grabs the title and runs off. That leaves Lashley on the floor, with Miz backdropping Ricochet over the post to take him down. The Skull Crushing Finale hits
    Cesaro and the 630 gives Ricochet the pin at 13:40. The 630 hit Cesaro in
    the knee and he falls outside holding said knee.

    Result: Ricochet/Miz/Braun Strowman b. Cesaro/Samoa Joe/Bobby Lashley 630
    to Cesaro (13:40)

    Corbin confirms that he has not yet made his choice for guest referee. Sami comes up for a talk.
    Becky Lynch/Bayley vs. Lacey Evans/Alexa Bliss

    Bayley is the hometown girl and Nikki Cross is here with Bliss. Bayley and Bliss start things off with Bayley driving her into the corner for some stomping. Bliss is right back with an arm twist to take her to the mat
    before it’s off to Lacey vs. Becky. Lacey kicks her in the ribs and hands
    it off to Bliss, who has to be saves from the Bexploder. Bayley’s sliding dropkick underneath the ropes barely hits Lacey as we take a break.

    Back with Becky coming in off the hot tag but getting knocked down in a
    hurry. The slingshot Bronco Buster makes it worse but Becky sends Lacey
    outside for a baseball slide. A Bliss distraction lets Lacey get in a neckbreaker, setting up a backflip (from the mat) splash for two. Evans
    misses a springboard moonsault and that’s enough for the tag off to Bayley. The Women’s Right cuts Bayley off but Twisted Bliss hits knees. Evans
    knocks Bayley out again though and steals the pin at 10:49.

    Result: Lacey Evans/Alexa Bliss b. Becky Lynch/Bayley Womans Right to
    Bayley (10:49)

    Sami comes in to see Shane McMahon and offers to audition as guest referee
    for Owens vs. Rollins tonight. Shane agrees on Sami being an outside
    referee, which Sami agrees was Shane’s idea.

    Here’s Paul Heyman to talk about how Brock Lesnar can beat up Seth Rollins every day and cash in any day. Three days ago, Rollins needed a chair to
    fend off Lesnar because he’s a coward and a stupid coward at that. See now, Rollins is going to have to worry about Lesnar cashing in every week. It
    could be tonight, it could be next week or the week after that. Or Lesnar
    could be the guest referee at Stomping Grounds and take the title then.
    He’ll do it one day and that’s a spoiler because Lesnar is the Beast Slayer Slayer.

    The 24/7 people are STILL stuck in the elevator and Truth announces that he
    has a phone. Just no bars on his phone. Drake Maverick needs to get out of
    here because he’s getting married in a few weeks. EC3: “And you didn’t invite me???” Maverick: “You’re my best man!” Maverick is accused of being
    Hornswoggle but what really matters is Heath Slater getting out because he
    has kids.

    Here are the IIconics for a match against some hand selected opponents. They’ve found San Jose’s finest but the two of them will never win the Women’s Tag Team Titles. Just like the San Jose Sharks will never win the Stanley Cup.
    IIconics vs. Lisa Lace/Aaliyah Mia

    Non-title. The announcers crack jokes about the jobbers, with Graves having
    to cut himself off after a Los Conquistadors joke. Royce knees Mia in the
    ribs and the knee to the head is good for the pin at 1:19.

    Result: IIconics b. Lisa Lace/Aaliyah Mia Knee to Mias head (1:19)

    Video on Shane McMahon beating Roman Reigns at Super ShowDown. After the
    match was over, Reigns said he was upset at the loss but was moving on to
    Drew McIntyre at Stomping Grounds.

    They’re still in the elevator.

    And now, Shane McMahon’s victory celebration. Drew McIntyre is with him and we have live bagpipe players to play him to the ring. Shane talks about
    growing up in WWE and recognizing special things. That would apply to Roman Reigns, who is a first ballot WWE Hall of Famer. Reigns hits like a mule
    and has beaten the best WWE has to offer. However, Reigns does not have a victory over Shane because Shane beat him at Super ShowDown. Shane thanks
    Drew for his preparation but gets cut off by a BORING chant. Shane: “Get
    used to it. It’s my celebration and I’ve got all night.”

    Drew calls Shane the Best in the World but he’s the most dangerous man in
    the world. At Stomping Grounds, he’s going to give Reigns the beating he deserves and beat him 1-2-3. Shane: “You’re so intense dude.” Shane drinks
    out of the Best in the World cup before bringing out the Revival. They
    can’t drink though because they have a Tag Team Title match up next. They
    can join the party, provided they win some gold.
    Tag Team Titles: Zack Ryder/Curt Hawkins vs. Revival vs. Usos

    Ryder and Hawkins are defending and before the match, they talk about their backs being against the wall but it’s not midnight yet. The Revival is knocked to the floor to start so the champs hit a neckbreaker for two on
    Jimmy. Dawson pulls Hawkins outside though and sends him into the barricade
    as we take a break.

    Back with the Usos picking up the pace off a big dive to the floor. A high crossbody gives Jimmy two on Dawson but it’s back to Ryder to take Dawson down. Jey tags himself in as everything breaks down, allowing Jey to hit
    the Superfly Splash on Ryder. Dawson tags himself in as well though and
    steals the pin and the titles at 8:19.

    Result: Revival b. Zack Ryder/Curt Hawkins and Usos Dawson pinned Ryder
    after a Superfly Splash from Jey (8:19)

    Rollins is ready for Lesnar, Corbin, Owens and Zayn.

    They’re still in the elevator and talk Maverick through his cold feet about the wedding. They decide they’re friends and start singing We Are Family. Then the other people outside the elvator open the door and the chase is on again. Some near falls ensue but Carmella drags R-Truth into the elevator
    and they get away.

    Cole: “Bray Wyatt has invited R-Truth to the Firefly Fun House to stay safe.”

    It’s time for the Firefly Fun House. Bray posts a sign on the door saying Abandon All Hope Ye Who Exit Here as Mercy and Rambling Rabbit get in a
    fight. Bray threatens them with the Fiend and they shake in fear. Instead they’ll let fate decide. He puts his hands on his head and things get
    creepy, but Rambling gets to speak his mind.

    It’s not cool to eat your friends but it might be time for him to expose
    what is really going on around here. Bray, now with a clown nose, picks him
    up and throws him down before CRUSHING RAMBLING WITH A MALLET. He then eats
    the entrails and declares them delicious. Today’s show is sponsored by Rambling Rabbit’s Delicious Rabbit Spread.
    Seth Rollins vs. Kevin Owens

    Non-title with Sami Zayn as outside referee. Sami checks Rollins, with the taped up ribs, for weapons and does a much faster check of Owens. They
    start slowly with Owens working on a wristlock and then an armbar. That’s broken up with some spinning and flipping but Sami offers a distraction so
    a rollup gets a delayed two. Rollins goes to yell at Sami, allowing Owens
    to send him outside.

    A DDT on the floor drops Rollins and we take a break. Back with Rollins jawbreaking his way to freedom from a chinlock. Owens finally wakes up and
    goes after the taped up ribs with a backbreaker. A dropkick and forearm to
    the back but the Sling Blade gets Rollins out of trouble. The ribs go out
    on a suplex attempt but Owens’ Swanton hits knees.

    An exchange of superkicks lets Rollins hit an enziguri but Sami comes in to check on Sami before the frog splash can loss. Rollins low bridges Owens to
    the floor and hits a suicide dive to take out both villains. The Stomp
    connects but Sami pulls the referee out at two. Sami takes his place so
    Seth grabs him by the shirt, earning a DQ at 12:01.

    Result: Kevin Owens b. Seth Rollins via DQ when Rollins attacked the
    referee (12:01)

    Post match Corbin comes in and grabs a chair but Rollins takes it away and chases him off. Sami gets chaired down with Rollins exploding as Cole talks about everything he’s been through over the last few weeks. Rollins hits
    the Stomp on Sami to end the show with no announcement being made on the
    guest referee.
