00:00Your allegiance to Chelsea Green.
00:14And her opponent, accompanied by the secret hermit from Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.
00:23She is the Women's United States Champion, Chelsea Green.
00:32Boy, she is excellent in the ring, but some may call her grating or cringe over her constant self-promotion and complaints.
00:40Some would say it's fueled by an inflated sense of entitlement or delusional lack of awareness.
00:46Some would argue it's simply unbridled arrogance.
00:48Others salute and pledge allegiance and have names like Piper Niven and Alva Fyre and Wade Barrett.
00:57I see pure talent and I am personally standing to attention and saluting our champion Chelsea Green in Chelsea we trust.
01:10That is what is on the line.
01:21That is what Zelina Vega has earned the right to fight for.
01:27That's debatable.
01:27The United States Championship, but Green tries to go on the attack early on and Vega gets out of the way and delivers right hand after right hand.
01:36Wade, after two straight wins against Chelsea Green to earn this opportunity, was looking for the unprettier.
01:42Two straight wins, pump the brakes there.
01:44There's a caveat, the caveat being on those two straight wins, the secret hervis were not here to protect the champ.
01:51They're here tonight.
01:51I'm sorry, who's protecting Zelina Vega?
01:55Zelina Vega, if she has no protection against somebody as talented as the champ Chelsea Green, is going to lose Jotas.
02:01That's how this works.
02:02Now, Vega came up with a very good win that we just saw moments ago, a week ago.
02:06Non-title match to earn this.
02:08Prior to that, it was the count-out.
02:09By the way, Ryan Tran, the same referee for this championship match.
02:14He's had an outstanding career, always fair and balanced, and does the best possible job he can.
02:20But he was the referee when there was that count-out a few weeks ago.
02:24Oh, and look at Alba Fire.
02:25He's become known as fast-count referee.
02:28I've timed that 10.
02:29Oh, man!
02:30Are you kidding me with the distraction?
02:32And all of a sudden, the secret hervis takes advantage.
02:35Back here in Fort Worth, Joe Tessitore and Wade Barrett with you.
02:45Women's United States Championship match.
02:47Chelsea Green looking to defend against Zelina Vega.
02:51We mentioned the fact that in the last two non-title matches, when Vega came up with a victory,
02:56the secret hervis, Piper and Alba, were not there to protect Chelsea Green.
03:01They've already played a major role tonight, Wade.
03:03Chelsea gets nervous without her security team in play.
03:06She feels vulnerable at the mercy of any riffraff who wants to make a name for themselves at the expense of the champ.
03:13Oh, my God!
03:14Look at the will and grit of Zelina Vega trying to fight back and delivering!
03:20We saw a Super Code Red last week.
03:23That was a super-release German suplex connecting high on the neck and shoulders of the champ.
03:29And that might be the moment that the tie begins to turn in this one.
03:33What a big award that was.
03:35Won by Zelina Vega.
03:37Keep in mind, that is what they are battling for.
03:40And for Zelina Vega, she has competed for a singles title five times in her WWE career.
03:460-5, looking to finally break through is Zelina Vega.
03:52Oh, attempted a knee to the jaw there on Vega.
03:55Vega was just too quick, and now with that spin in, back elbow flattens the champ!
04:00And that back elbow then sets her up with a running knee into the corner,
04:04and now Vega is climbing up top.
04:07And all over the place now is the champ, Chelsea Green.
04:10No clue where she's at, my God!
04:12Zelina Vega in position to win the championship!
04:16Oh, what a huge meteora there, Joe!
04:20And that perhaps is the moment that Vega thought she had it would.
04:24Wait a second.
04:24Oh, look at elbow fire, just as you described, Wade.
04:27A cheap shot there from Zelina Vega.
04:30Cheap shot.
04:30She's clearing the apron!
04:32But in giving time to Chelsea Green, Green looks to take control.
04:36Looking for a prettier again.
04:37But instead, Zelina Vega with the backstabber.
04:42And now Vega says, I want a little 6-1-9 to top my knife.
04:47Oh, Piper trips her up!
04:54This has gone too far with the secret Hermes.
04:58And now Ryan Tran finally turns around and sees it.
05:04Get out of here!
05:05Rip this place of them!
05:08Rip this place of them!
05:08Rip this place of them!
05:08Rip this place of them!
05:09Rip this place of them!
05:10Rip this place of them!
05:12Justice is served!
05:13The secret Hermes evicted from the matchup!
05:17But it might be academic, because back in control is Chelsea Green!
05:22Oh!
05:23Co-ref!
05:23Co-ref!
05:24Do we have it?
05:25No!
05:26Oh, my!
05:27Oh, my!
05:28Oh, my!
05:29A stunner in Texas!
05:31Here is your winner!
05:33And the new Women's United States Champion!
05:40Selena Vega!
05:44Selena Vega!
05:45Her first WWE singles title!
05:49It's a hit and run that nobody saw coming!
05:55Selena Vega winning her first singles championship!
06:00She has slayed that demon!
06:04And I think, Joe Test, we are all in shock!
06:07The ultimate underdog in the women's division has just pulled off!
