After the break, The Miz is in the ring for Miz TV. Before anything can happen, though, Tiffany and Charlotte are STILL fighting! They brawl out onto the ramp.

This should be interesting. The bell sounds. A lot of woos as they lock up. Flair has the advantage and levels B-Fab with a shoulder tackle.

Next, we get a look back at the Belair-Cargill-Naomi segment from last week. From there, Cathy Kelley interviews Jade Cargill in the empty arena from earlier. She asks how Jade is doing physically and emotionally. Jade says she's good physically. She talks about destroying Naomi and Cathy asks why Jade didn't say anything sooner.

Jade says all she can recall is being hit from behind and seeing Naomi run off as she drifted off. She talked about how disgusted she is by the betrayal, then Liv and Raquel show up. They get into a big argument and Jade challenges Liv to a match NEXT WEEK.
