Contract Signing
The ring is set up for the Shayna Baszler/Liv Morgan contract signing. Ronda Rousey jumps the barricade carrying a duffle bag. Rousey says she knows she isn’t supposed to be here but she doesn’t care. She got fined a lot of money. Rousey empties the bag on the table and it’s full of money. Rousey says she doubled it. Security comes to ringside Rousey says she was going to leave on her own but now they can make her leave. Rousey almost locks a security guard in the armbar but she just walks away.
Baszler walks out on the stage and tells Rousey this isn’t the way and she needs to follow the rules. Rousey scoffs and tells Baszler that she used to be a killer. Rousey walks away in disgust. Baszler gets in the ring and promises to destroy Morgan. Baszler signs the contract. Morgan walks to the ring and tells Baszler she is a bootleg Rousey and she knows that because she beat the real one twice. Morgan signs. Baszler grabs Morgan’s injured arm and slams it on the table. Baszler stomps on Morgan’s arm. Morgan surprises Baszler with a bulldog through the table. Morgan slinks away.
Backstage, Jimmy and Jey yell at Sami Zayn for running away when McIntyre attacked them earlier.
