Tribute To The Troops 2018 - The Results

The show begins with a rendition of The Star Spangled Banner.

The Fabulous Truth (R-Truth and Carmella) hand out gifts to the Fort Hood crowd along with The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods). Big E says today is the holliest, jolliest day of them all, then The New Day talk about the annual Tribute To The Troops show and how the United States military are the real heroes. The New Day talk about their favorite holiday traditions, then get a "USA" chant going.



"Rowdy" Ronda Rousey and Natalya beat The Riott Squad (Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan) and the team of Nia Jax and Tamina in a Triple Threat tag team match with a double arm bar to Morgan and Logan. After the match, Ronda says it has been an incredible honor to perform in front of the military at Fort Hood, and while she has talked about what a real champion is, she says the US military are the real champions and thank them for everything they do.



We see footage from earlier today where former Daily Show host Jon Stewart talks about the Tribute To The Troops and also meets with the troops at Fort Hood.

Before the next match, Elias shows up playing his guitar, then asks who wants to walk with him.

Elias and Finn Balor beat Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre after Finn Balor stops Lio Rush from grabbing Lashley to stop a pinfall.



A few of the WWE Superstars thank the troops.

It's time for Miz TV. Miz counters the "This is awesome!" chants with "No, you are awesome." Tonight's guests are Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch. Becky Lynch threatens to hurt Charlotte, but Miz asks for decorum and both women sit down. He then talks about Becky and Charlotte's former friendship in an attempt to get to the root of the problem. After Miz says that Charlotte has never stood in anyone's shadow, Charlotte Flair says that queens cast shadows, not stand in them. Miz then says he feels he has overshadowed Becky on the set of The Marine 6, and says he is sorry. Becky says that is big of The Miz, and says that is something that has never been said about Miz about all. She then accuses Miz of being a fake Marine and Charlotte of being her, while she is being what she is: The Man. Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville show up, and say they are tried of the SmackDown Live women's division revolving around Becky and Charlotte, and that she is what the face of the women's division should look like. Sonya says Mandy has more class than Charlotte, and that she herself hits harder than Nia Jax, who also broke Nia's face. Mandy proposes they stop arguing between themselves so they can show who really deserves the spotlight. Charlotte accepts the challenge.



Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch beat Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville with a Dis-Arm-Her on Sonya Deville.

"The Phenomenal" AJ Styles and Seth Rollins beat Dean Ambrose and "The New" Daniel Bryan after an inadvertent running drop kick from Daniel Bryan to Dean Ambrose. After the match, Rollins says that he and Styles may be tough and resilient, but toughness and resilience are really defined by the United States military, and he calls them "the true fighters." Styles says that he knows the troops' sacrifice, having been in a military family himself, and thanks the troops for everything that they do.



The show ends with even more footage of WWE Superstars with members of the United States military.
