Tonight the 2nd phase of the US Contenders series takes place as the 3 remaining members from last week compete in a Triple Threat match. We also have a big women’s match as Beth Phoenix makes her return to the ring against her former partner Natalya.

Myself, I find it to be an indictment on our education system and ignorance on your parts. You dare call the monsters of the Wyatt family soft, that id your mistake. Do NOT take them lightly because they will NOT go easy on you. Tonight, the Faces of Vengeance and the Face of Destruction will begin their march towards complete annhilation.”
