Vic Joseph was on commentary with Corey Graves. Sami Zayn made his entrance in the arena along with Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae. Zayn asked the crowd who came to ride or die with the last real good guy. A mixed reaction rang out, and he said he hated to say he told you so, but vultures are circling around his title and they got what they deserved.<\/p>\n<p>Zayn said Je\u2019Von Evans, CM Punk, Trick Williams, and Kevin Owens all came up short. He said he wouldn\u2019t waste his breath on Trick Williams tonight, but he gave a sarcastic congratulations to Penta and told him to focus his energy with Roman Reigns. He then said he had his own personal history with Roman Reigns, and that would come into focus in a few weeks when they go one on one at Crown Jewel. Out of respect, he said he would hold off on addressing it until Monday when he could say it to Roman face to face.<\/p>\n<p>Trick Williams interrupted Sami and made his way to the ring. Trick fired up the crowd and Sami demanded the production team shut down his music. He told Trick to say what he had to say. Trick said it\u2019s not secret they don\u2019t like each other, and after last week he sees that it\u2019s personal for Sami. He said he understands why, because every time he sees Trick Williams he remembers WrestleMania and Backlash, and Trick Williams being a real superstar. He then continued and told Sami he would beat his ass.<\/p>\n<p>Zayn told Williams he already told him it wasn\u2019t a game and he wasn\u2019t to be trifled with, but he has to turn everything into a joke because that\u2019s all he is. He told Williams he can\u2019t differentiate what\u2019s serious from what\u2019s a joke, and he doesn\u2019t have the survival skills to discern between a real threat and a joke. Zayn told Trick he\u2019s a survivor, and that\u2019s why he\u2019s going to stay where he is and Trick will stay where he is. Trick said he\u2019s not joking, and told him to take a swing and find out what happens.<\/p>\n<p>Gargano grabbed a microphone and said enough, and told Trick he\u2019s disrespecting them too. He said Trick was handed opportunities they had to work for because he had an entrance and he had \u201cit\u201d. Gargano then said if he continued the disrespect, he\u2019d find out why they call him Johnny Wrestling instead of Johnny Entrance. Trick said he wasn\u2019t making excuses, and he works as hard as everybody, and he\u2019d beat his ass too. Gargano accepted, and a referee was called out to the ring\u2026[c]<\/p>\n<p><strong>My Take:<\/strong> A decent segment to set up the opening match. It seems like they aren\u2019t too focused on Crown Jewel until Monday so this was fairly self contained. Trick was very over with the live crowd, particularly for his catchphrase.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Trick Williams vs. Johnny Gargano:<\/strong> The match was joined in progress after the break. Gargano was in control of the action. Trick attempted a leapfrog when Johnny hit the ropes and grabbed his knee. Gargano attacked the knee, but Trick managed to put Gargano down with a shoulder tackle. He followed up with some chops in the corner. Trick then landed a delayed vertical suplex, and then set up for a Trick Shot, but Gargano rolled to the floor to avoid it.<\/p>\n<p>Trick and Gargano the fought in front of Sami Zayn as he sat in on commentary. A distraction from Candice LeRae allowed Gargano to battle back into the match with a dragon screw on Trick\u2019s bad knee. He then delivered a suicide dive into Trick that sent him over the top of the commentary table. Gargano and Zayn hugged after he connected with the dive\u2026[c]<\/p><div id=\"prowr-463958429\" class=\"prowr-content-4 prowr-entity-placement\" role=\"region\" aria-label=\"Advertisements\"><!-- Tag ID: prowrestling_incontent_2 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"prowrestling_incontent_2\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\", slotId: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Trick landed a flapjack to get back into the match. He then delivered a bit strike in the corner and jawed at Gargano on the ground. Johnny attempted a comeback with a series of strikes, but got cut down with a big boot. Trick then landed a fireman\u2019s carry slam for a two count. After some additional back and forth, Trick was able to land a Trick Shot and eventually put Gargano away with a Book End.<\/p>\n<p><em>Trick Williams defeated Johnny Gargano<\/em><\/p>\n<p>After the match, a video recap aired of the Women\u2019s Money in the Bank Match, including Tiffany Stratton\u2019s victory. Backstage, Nick Aldis informed Blake Monroe she would face Guilia next week in a street fight. Chelsea Green walked up, and they discussed Liv Morgan at Crown Jewel and Roxanne Perez seeking a title shot after Monday. Nikki Bella then walked up and reminded Chelsea she would see her in two weeks for her title shot after she defeats Paige tonight.<\/p>\n<p>Paige made her ring entrance in the arena\u2026[c]<\/p>\n<p><strong>My Take:<\/strong> A solid opening match, but not much mystery about it. Gargano is still a punching bag and Trick seems to be trending towards a World Title Match down the road.<\/p>\n<p>The Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton face to face was advertised for later in the show. Nikki Bella made her ring entrance for the next match.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Nikki Bella vs. Paige:<\/strong> The action went to the floor almost immediately. Both women were thrown into the barricades. Nikki was then thrown into the ring apron and then into the ring. Nikki tried to escape up to the stage, but Paige gave chase and tossed her back into the ring. Paige dominated the brawling with elbows and knees, but Nikki made a comeback by hanging Paige by her surgically repaired neck on the second rope. She then slammed Paige from the apron to the floor\u2026[c]<\/p>\n<p>Paige started a comeback and delivered a belly to back suplex. She fired up the crowd and did John Cena\u2019s \u201cYou can\u2019t see me\u201d stance. Nikki reversed the Five Knuckle Shuffle into a STF, but Paige reached the bottom rope. Paige turned things around with an Attitude Adjustment and covered for a two count. Nikki fired back with a running forearm strike and covered for a near fall of her own. Nikki clapped to mock the crowd and then set up for a Rack Attack, but Paige escaped. Both women rolled around into various pinning predicaments, and Paige got the win after she placed her foot on the ropes.<\/p>\n<p><em>Paige defeated Nikki Bella at 9:05<\/em><\/p>\n<p>After the match, Paige slapped hands as she headed to the back. R-Truth was then interviewed backstage, and was asked about his match with Damien Priest. Truth said he was heartbroken and was always thankful for being Priest\u2019s friend, but if he insisted on stabbing him in the back he\u2019d wish he was back at the bodega eating Arroz Con Pollo, Truth said his ass was his\u2026[c]<\/p><div id=\"prowr-38854020\" class=\"prowr-content-5 prowr-entity-placement\" role=\"region\" aria-label=\"Advertisements\"><!-- Tag ID: prowrestling_incontent_3 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"prowrestling_incontent_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"prowrestling_incontent_3\", slotId: \"prowrestling_incontent_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><strong>My Take:<\/strong> Paige and Bella was not a technical masterpiece, but they seemed to have the crowd\u2019s attention for the majority of it. It seems we\u2019re back to a more serious version of R-Truth, which is a good thing from my perspective.<\/p>\n<p>A recap aired of the Men\u2019s Money in the Bank match for Penta\u2019s big moment. Kevin Owens was shown backstage with Nick Aldis, and said his neck is good but his knee and shoulder aren\u2019t the best. Punk walked up and asked Aldis to put him in the ring with this piece of garbage. Aldis said he needed them both to be 100%, and said either of them fighting in parts of the building other than the ring where he can\u2019t sell tickets does nothing for him. Until then, they needed to stay out of each other\u2019s way. Owens left and then threw something at Punk after he walked away. Aldis told Punk he would get his match sooner than later.<\/p>\n<p>Video was then shown of Damien Priest assaulting R-Truth in Mexico City while Truth made his entrance. He was then followed by Damien Priest. Truth didn\u2019t allow Priest to finish his entrance before launching his attack. He knocked Priest off the apron and then dove on him at ringside. The ref rang the bell after both men were in the ring.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Damien Priest vs. R-Truth:<\/strong> Priest cut down Truth immediately after a standing side kick. He then stomped on Truth in the corner. Priest delivered a Broken Arrow and covered for a two count. Truth attempted a comeback with a kick, but Priest shut him down with an elbow and a flatliner. Priest rushed in on Truth in the corner, but hit the post instead. Truth delivered a top rope missile dropkick, but Truth landed awkwardly and the referee was forced to call off the match.<\/p>\n<p><em>The match ended by medical stoppage at 3:33<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Truth went to ringside and grabbed a chair, but Fraxiom ran down to the ring and prevented any further attack from happening. More videos aired of Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton\u2019s history, along with a plug for Agent of Shadows on Reel Short\u2026[c]<\/p>\n<p><strong>My Take:<\/strong> It looked like Truth landed flat on his back. Hopefully he just got the wind knocked out of him and it wasn\u2019t more serious.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-19072926\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\" role=\"region\"
