Tyriek says speed vs. power will apply pressure and that the pressure will make Cappuccino and Cartwheel explode.

We hear from It's Gal, who is poolside at home after a workout. He calls Troy Yearwood "a Gal wannabe" and says he has the best physique, not Yearwood, and gives him his first and final warning to stay out of his way, as "when you're in mint condition, there is no competiton."

Jackson Drake shows up unannounced and says that weeek after week, The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor, "The Smoke Show" Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake, "The Real Deal" Zayda Steel, Bryce Donovan) have proven that they are the hottest thing going on Evolve in more ways that one and that they are just getting started. Drake says he will bring more drip to The Vanity Project next week when he wins the Evolve Championship, then Edris Enofé shows up and says he finds it hilarious that Drake calls himself the hottest thing going when he is standing here right now. He says that next week is a moment he has waited for for a very long time, as he has worked for the last four years to keep this from slipping through his fingers. He then tells Drake that he is leaving empty-handed when he leaves with the title, then "Super" Sean Legacy shows up. Legacy brings up The Vanity Project recruiting the help of Lexis King to keep him from competing in the Fatal 4-Way for the Evolve Championship, and while Lexis King was the better man that night, he is still standing. Legacy tells Enofé that he respects his journey, but they both have an opportunity waiting and that he has waited eight years and fought up the food chain to start his legacy and become Evolve Champion. Jackson Drake says he is tired of listening to Enofé and Legacy, and says that neither of them are qualified like he is. As he leaves, he backs into Keanu Carver. Enofé and Legacy approach Drake, then they and Carver all get a free punch to the face before referees show up to restore order.

Cappuccino says they have a triple shot of energy ready to hit them in the mouth and that he and Cartwheel are about to turn Evolve on its head.

Wes Lee states that Tyriek and Tyson have been causing a ruckus in Evolve and that he has arrived to see what the noise is about. He says that Cappuccino Jones and Jack Cartwheel has plenty of potential, but that potential does not measure up to theirs, and if they have a problem, they can see him next week. Tyson says they have not seen the last of them, then The High Ryze leave to celebrate.

He says that SoCal Uncensored looks less like a frat house and more like "a retirement home for washed-up dorks," then tells Scorpio Sky to stay home instead of showing up at Coastline Clash, or else he will drag him all over California.
