Nikki can’t believe she’s standing here as champion and it’s always a dream. “You deserve it” chants starts from fans. Nikki says she keeps pinching herself to make sure she is not asleep but this dream is now real.
Nikki talks about how she felt didn’t have enough confidence in the past and when she put this outfit, it gives her the confidence and reminds her, and she wants to remind all of us, that no matter what, if you believe in yourself you can overcome everything. It worked for her and it can work for you and we all can be Almost Superheros. Music hits, here comes The Queen Charlotte Flair.
Charlotte Flair says it’s a nice fairy tale Nikki telling but it doesn’t have a happy ending because Nikki as a champion is disgrace.

Then, Flair calls Nikki an Almost Idiot and as fans chant “you suck!”.
Charlotte Flair goes on about how she dominated Rhea Ripley last week and that made Ripley to attack her, and that was only way Nikki could cash-in.

Flair says enough of this super hero crap and goes on that she’s ripping Nikki at Summer Slam to win the title. Ripley says that title belongs to her waist.
