This is gonna be one of the biggest matches of my entire career, and
it's at SummerSlam.
It's crazy.
It's really surreal that it's actually happening, that I'm actually
getting the opportunity to prove myself not only to the WWE Universe,
but to myself, and to just kinda solidify my own standings of things.
>> My official pick for Sunday, Ember Moon.
>> I mean, I don't know, we could do a picture with Cesaro here.
>> Is it SmackDown Champion?
>> Yeah.
>> Okay, yeah, you don't have to do Universal Women's Championship yet, right?
So new SmackDown Women's Champion, Ember Moon on Sunday.
Sorry, Bayley.
>> This morning, we spent time at the Rogers Cup, which was awesome.
It's kinda weird where this place takes you.
And I actually got to sit at the Rogers Cup and watch a match.
I got to present a championship title to the Rogers Cup for the winner,
the champion of champions, if you will.
It’s awesome, I have such a really cool life.
I’ve never been to an event like this before.
Some of my fondest memories are just watching tennis with my dad,
watching the Williams sisters, Sharapova, so many others, Agassi.
It's just tennis is ingrained in my family.
And I attempted to play, wasn't very good, as you see.
[LAUGH] But it's just an amazing opportunity to be here and
to be able to watch the players in their element.
This is so very early on in this match.
It's probably, so you don't wanna get stuck here,
because you can literally burn out all your energy, all of your stamina.
I think there's six or seven here [INAUDIBLE].
I don't know, it's just really cool to be here, and be able to watch them all
in person and see the players, and kinda see everything they're going through.
It was a beautiful day outside too, so you can't get over that.
Just most of all, just clear my mind for Sunday, that's what this is.
It's a little terrifying, it's a little crazy.
But I'm always down for the challenge.
I'm always up for the opportunity.
And any chance I get to prove people wrong, or
any chance I can just persuade people to the Ember Moon bandwagon,
[LAUGH] if you will, it's an opportunity I'm gonna take.
And finally at SummerSlam,
I get the opportunity to show the world what Ember Moon is capable of.
I'm having my very first singles match on a pay per view.
And it's crazy because I haven't really seen a lot
of success since I left NXT, and this is a moment that could be,
So much more than what I ever thought it would be.
So we're actually off to one of my favorite dessert spots.
It's called the Milk Bar.
And it's so I can get a pre-match snack.
[MUSIC]
I've been on this super crazy, super clean food eating diet.
Where I have to eat six times a day, just chicken breasts and spinach, and
broccoli, and salad, and all the gross stuff.
But my nutritionalist said that I can have something sweet right before my match.
So I'm actually on my way to Milk Bar to get some birthday cake truffles and
probably a funfetti cookie, cuz they have the best cookies everywhere.
Anyone will tell you, I know my desserts.
Kinda created by a super famous chef called Christina Tosi.
She is the pastry queen and I love her desserts.
But we came to Milk Bar so I could get a nice pre-match snack,
even though I kinda went a little overboard.
But I got some birthday cake truffles, a funfetti cookie.
And I had a little bit of ramen, though I'm not supposed to have it.
But it's absolutely delicious.
I had a little bit of pork ramen to just kinda top off my day today.
Man, it's so good.
>> So what'd you get?
>> I got something I wasn't supposed to have, but it tastes absolutely delicious.
It's a little bit of ramen.
But the broth is absolutely gorgeous.
I love it, love it, love it.
Love it, love it, love it.
I love ramen, so can't go wrong with that.
As you can see, you just shop around, grab what you want.
You can take it downstairs.
It's absolutely awesome.
This is what I came for right here, the best cookie ever.
But that's the post-match.
Pre-match, we have these lovely little angels.
They are birthday cake truffles.
It's probably one of the best treats I've ever had in my life, it's amazing.
Probably gonna grab a couple extra for
myself cuz I'm being good, and one for Lexi.
Happy birthday, Lexi.
I might give her one of these.
Just having a good time, that's totally what we're doing.
And then this is going to be it, I think, hopefully.
Yeah, it's great.
Of course, I wanna be in the ring with Bayley,
because she knows exactly what I'm out for.
And if she doesn't watch out, I'm gonna lock down SmackDown Women's Championship.
And I know she'll be okay with that,
because she'll know that the better woman won that day.
But she knows it'll be the same woman that's just as impassioned as she is.
And who's willing to elevate the title, who's willing to elevate the division, and
who's gonna continue to move forward in this women's evolution.
