Red carpet ready
John Cena’s ESPYs-hosting gig is coming up, and the entire Bella family is joining Nikki and Brie on the red carpet. That means the twins have to give their mother and brother a crash course in being camera-ready and giving interviews, which would be fine if J.J, wasn’t being so defensive. The Bella brother doesn’t just toss Nikki’s phone in a Jacuzzi when she doesn’t put it down, he gives a practice answer to a question that makes it sound like he’d rather Cena and Nikki never get engaged. But, luckily, they ace their red carpet appearance and Cena kills it as the host.
Hello, ladies
Naomi and Renee Young take Lana to Las Vegas for a bachelorette bash, despite Rusev’s overarching disgust with the idea of a bachelorette party. The ladies whisk Lana away around town anyway, and it’s going fine at first, but thanks to a chance meeting, Lana finds herself swept up in the swarthy charms of Old Spice’s “The Man Your Man Could Smell Like,” aka Isaiah Mustafa, aka The Ravishing Russian’s hitherto-unmentioned ex-boyfriend from acting class. A combination of meeting her ex, plus your garden-variety pre-wedding jitters, has Lana thinking maybe the whole marriage thing isn’t a good idea after all, but Rusev is able to talk her down by reminding her that he doesn’t care what capacity they’re together in, as long as they’re together.
Of course, being that they’re in Vegas, things get weird pretty fast, and the ladies find themselves besieged on all sides by some very strange characters — an overzealous fan in a wheelchair and his bar-brawling girlfriend; a weird party bus host and a literal cat lady. It turns out that all of them were plants arranged by Renee to give Lana a true, blue, crazy Vegas story.
