From New Orleans:

We open with a video from Stephanie McMahon. She apologizes on behalf of WWE for the company knowingly false-advertising a match between Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair for Summerslam, knowing the match wouldn't happen. She says her father insisted on continuing to promote the match, and decided to bring Becky Lynch back prematurely.

Stephanie has taken punitive action, and that Belair, the UWA champion, will not be facing Lynch until "The Man" is 100% ready. Instead, Bianca will be matched against the former captain of Team Kick, New Zealand's Dakota Kai, at Schoolyard Scuffle, which will be a matinee card in Syracuse, with a 12 noon opening bell, on Sept. 5, to accomodate AEW's All Out that same night in Chicago. As for the Smackdown title, until Becky gets full clearance to compete, she won't be on UWA TV.

1. Hit Row def. Legado del Fantasma in a 6-man elimination match, a rematch from 8/24. Order of elimination:

1st fall: Isaiah "Swerve" Scott pinned Joaquin Wilde after a House Call at 12:10.
2nd fall: Santos Escobar was disqualified for pulling the tights, just like he did on 8/24, of Scott at 19:00.
3rd fall: Top Dolla (AJ Francis) pinned Raul Mendoza with a middle rope splash at 23:11. Hit Row wins, 3-0.

Elektra Lopez came out with Legado, but was ejected for interference during the 2nd fall.

2. Austin Theory & Dexter Lumis (w/Indi Hartwell) def. Reno Scum in 13:05 when Theory pinned Adam Thornstowe after the ATO.

3. Hartwell def. Lopez with a top rope springboard elbow in 3:11. Protracted squash. Lumis & Hartwell switched places between matches.

It was announced that the rematch between Kenny Omega and Andrade El Idolo for the AAA Mega title was cancelled, as Omega no-showed. The match has been rescheduled for Sept. 18, and this time, Omega must appear, or he is suspended.

4. Non-title: Christian Cage def. Chad Gable with the Killswitch (Unprettier) in 11:10. Otis was banned from ringside.

John Morrison has a challenge for The Miz. He knows his on-again, off-again partner better than anyone, and he knows that when they meet at Schoolyard Scuffle, Maryse will hire a babysitter for the kids so she can interfere on Miz's behalf. Morrison raises the stakes, and decides that it'll be a mixed tag instead. His wife, Franky Monet, then appears.

5. Matt Cardona & Chelsea Green def. Tenille Dashwood & Caleb w/a K (Caleb Konley) in 6:40. Cardona pinned Caleb with Radio Silence (Rough Ryder).

It was announced that Bobby Lashley was DQ'd at Summerslam for interference (MVP, of course) and an illegal post-match attack on Bill Goldberg. The two will be rematched at Schoolyard Scuffle, and with MVP suspended indefinitely for numerous violations, Lashley has to go it alone.

6. Ridge Holland def. Sam Beale (Impact) with Northern Grit in 2:11. Squash.
7. The Dominators (Dio Maddin & Dominik Dijakovic) def. Eli Isom & Josh Woods in 8:10. Isom was pinned after High Justice.

8. Keith Lee def. Brian Myers with the Big Bang Catastrophe in 2:56. Protracted squash #2. Myers was squashed for repeated violations in Impact.

9. UWA title: Drew McIntyre def. Chavo Guerrero in 23:51 with the Claymore Kick.
