Jey Uso defends Intercontinental Title against Bron Breakker

Tonight, Intercontinental Champion Jey Uso faces an enormous threat to his reign when he battles the man he dethroned for the title, Bron Breakker. Unable to accept that he lost his championship to Uso, Breakker looked to have moved on from “Main Event Jey,” but he viciously attacked Jey after his match against Xavier Woods two weeks ago. Can Jey Uso make it two-for-two against Bron Breakker?

– The show opens with fans YEETING outside the arena and then we see Jey Uso and Bron Breakker arriving separately to the arena. We see officials bringing the Crown Jewel title into the arena. American Made is seen arriving and they run into Alpha Academy. Rey Mysterio and Dragon Lee arrive as well. We see Bronson Reed arriving but is taken out by Seth Rollins in the parking lot. Rollins takes out Reed and makes his way to the ring.

– In the ring, Rollins calls out Reed and tells him to come down and fight. Adam Pearce and officials come out and tell Rollins to chill and officials start flying out of the back onto the ramp. Reed comes out and the security team tries to stop Reed and Rollins comes flying out of the ring with suicide dive. Rollins and Reed go at in the ring and Reed hits a Death Valley Driver and attempts a Tsunami but Rollins gets out of the way before Reed can take flight. Reed comes out of the ring and throws Rollins onto the announce table and beats on security as Rollins lays on the table. Reed throws a security guard off his shoulders on to the other guards and jumps off the barricade and Rollins moves and Reed crashes onto the announce table Tsunami-ing it. Officials and security are able to get control of what's happening and Wade Barrett and Joe Tessitore then start discussing the Women's Tag stories.

– Jackie Redmond catches up with Iyo Sky and Kairi Sane. They say they'll become the tag champs before Liv and Raquel tell Redmond to screw off and talk into the camera calling out Nia Jax. Sky and Sane interrupt Liv and challenge Raquel and Liv.
