[Triple H] Then.

00:00:08,675 --> 00:00:09,642
Now.

4
00:00:14,714 --> 00:00:15,682
Forever.

5
00:00:23,990 --> 00:00:24,991
Together.

6
00:00:33,483 --> 00:00:34,951
[Corey] Two weeks from tomorrow,

7
00:00:34,984 --> 00:00:37,220
four champions will converge and compete

8
00:00:37,253 --> 00:00:39,055
in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia--

9
00:00:39,089 --> 00:00:42,358
Jax, Morgan, Rhodes, Gunther.

10
00:00:42,392 --> 00:00:46,312
At stake-- global recognition
as the best of the best

11
00:00:46,346 --> 00:00:48,565
and the prestige
of becoming the first ever

12
00:00:48,598 --> 00:00:51,651
WWE Crown Jewel Champion.

13
00:00:51,684 --> 00:00:53,536
Meanwhile, tonight in Columbia,

14
00:00:53,570 --> 00:00:56,823
for former undisputed WWE Champion
Roman Reigns,

15
00:00:56,856 --> 00:01:01,177
his quest back to the head of the table
is looking less and less likely,

16
00:01:01,211 --> 00:01:04,264
as last week,
Reigns once again found himself

17
00:01:04,297 --> 00:01:06,649
at the mercy of the new Bloodline

18
00:01:06,683 --> 00:01:09,335
and still a chief without a tribe.

19
00:01:13,656 --> 00:01:16,009
Tonight, we're going to
change things up a little bit.

20
00:01:17,544 --> 00:01:22,682
Join me and acknowledge Big Jim!

21
00:01:22,715 --> 00:01:25,685
[cheering]

22
00:01:26,402 --> 00:01:28,021
Oh my goodness!

23
00:01:29,722 --> 00:01:30,857
Jimmy's back!

24
00:01:33,059 --> 00:01:36,563
I'm the Tribal Chief, and that
means I take what's mine.

25
00:01:37,030 --> 00:01:38,748
That's exactly what we've done.

26
00:01:38,782 --> 00:01:40,800
We took what was ours.

27
00:01:40,834 --> 00:01:42,018
We had it all.

28
00:01:42,051 --> 00:01:45,822
We reigned around here,
and everybody feared us.

29
00:01:45,855 --> 00:01:47,690
When we step foot in this ring,

30
00:01:47,724 --> 00:01:52,378
I want you to know that we are the ones!

31
00:01:53,780 --> 00:01:55,849
Yeah, but we're not, though.

32
00:01:56,749 --> 00:01:58,718
I stand here in the middle of this ring,

33
00:01:58,751 --> 00:02:00,920
and I see a chief with no tribe right now.

34
00:02:02,288 --> 00:02:05,592
I see you with no
ulafala around your neck.

35
00:02:06,559 --> 00:02:09,762
Man, I came back because you needed me.

36
00:02:09,796 --> 00:02:11,264
You needed help.

37
00:02:12,132 --> 00:02:15,368
Yo, we need help.

38
00:02:15,401 --> 00:02:17,337
[tense music]

39
00:02:21,141 --> 00:02:22,142
No yeet.

40
00:02:24,744 --> 00:02:27,046
You'll forever be my Tribal Chief, man.

41
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,549
But I am the only one in the family

42
00:02:29,582 --> 00:02:31,217
that still acknowledges you.

43
00:02:32,685 --> 00:02:36,055
[Corey] The Bloodline
acknowledges Solo Sikoa.

44
00:02:36,089 --> 00:02:38,675
He's the man who had his
own brother attacked

45
00:02:38,708 --> 00:02:40,560
and kicked out of The Bloodline.

46
00:02:40,593 --> 00:02:43,363
Jimmy Uso seeks revenge.

47
00:02:43,396 --> 00:02:47,784
Solo Sikoa said that Jimmy
will acknowledge him.

48
00:02:47,817 --> 00:02:49,168
Here comes Tama Tonga.

49
00:02:49,202 --> 00:02:52,405
And now on the other side, Jacob Fatu.

50
00:02:53,506 --> 00:02:57,026
Samoan Spike by Solo!

51
00:02:57,060 --> 00:02:58,027
[bell dings]

52
00:02:58,061 --> 00:03:01,614
And now The Bloodline
assaulting Jimmy Uso.

53
00:03:04,184 --> 00:03:07,537
Roman Reigns on his way to the ring.

54
00:03:07,570 --> 00:03:10,840
Roman returning the favor from
Badd Blood coming to the aid.

55
00:03:14,427 --> 00:03:18,248
And now Solo and Roman going at it.

56
00:03:18,281 --> 00:03:20,800
And again, The Bloodline,
strength in numbers.

57
00:03:24,854 --> 00:03:27,941
Terrifying athleticism
from the Samoan werewolf.

58
00:03:31,661 --> 00:03:33,846
Samoan Spike to Reigns.

59
00:03:37,100 --> 00:03:38,701
We need help.

60
00:03:38,735 --> 00:03:39,702
We need help.

61
00:03:49,295 --> 00:03:50,296

Please, just hear me out--

I said no.

65
00:04:06,813 --> 00:04:08,598
Get out of my face, man.

the new Bloodline looks to continue right

70
00:04:30,470 --> 00:04:32,205
where they left off last week.

71
00:04:34,941 --> 00:04:36,643
[ring announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,

72
00:04:36,676 --> 00:04:40,880
please welcome Jacob Fatu

73
00:04:40,913 --> 00:04:44,767
from the WWE Tag Team Champions,

74
00:04:44,801 --> 00:04:47,587
Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa

75
00:04:47,620 --> 00:04:52,642

Welcome to the ringside, everybody.
I am still Corey Graves.

00:05:13,463 --> 00:05:15,181
Michael Cole is off on special assignment

80
00:05:15,214 --> 00:05:17,650
tonight, so I'm afraid
I've got a little bad news.

81
00:05:17,684 --> 00:05:20,470
Rejoining me in the booth,
the band is back together--

82
00:05:20,503 --> 00:05:21,521
Mr. Wade Barrett.

83
00:05:21,554 --> 00:05:24,590
What a thrill it is to be
back here on SmackDown.

84
00:05:24,624 --> 00:05:27,460
Excited to see what the new
version of The Bloodline

85
00:05:27,493 --> 00:05:28,528
have in store for us.

86
00:05:28,561 --> 00:05:29,862
I'm gonna ask you a question

87
00:05:29,896 --> 00:05:32,181
that Roman Reigns
is no doubt asking himself.

88
00:05:32,215 --> 00:05:34,917
In your opinion,
is there any conceivable way

89
00:05:34,951 --> 00:05:38,204
to stop this new outlaw rogue Bloodline?

90
00:05:38,237 --> 00:05:40,940
[Wade] Well, last week told its own story.

91
00:05:40,973 --> 00:05:46,012
Roman Reigns and Jey Uso
look certainly out of manpower,

92
00:05:46,045 --> 00:05:51,567
and, more scarily, perhaps out of ideas
to deal with Solo Sikoa

93
00:05:51,601 --> 00:05:53,169
and his troops.

94
00:05:53,202 --> 00:05:54,754
[Corey] Can't imagine too many men

95
00:05:54,787 --> 00:05:57,190

who want to stand eye

96
00:05:57,223 --> 00:05:59,275

unless he does one thing.

126
00:08:45,625 --> 00:08:51,280
Unless he comes down to the ring
by the end of the night

127

00:09:30,303 --> 00:09:32,605

conspicuous by their lack of yeeting

139
00:09:40,713 --> 00:09:45,484
are the four men stood in that ring,
namely Solo Sikoa

and his band of men
known as The Bloodline.

All masks celebrating for it.

142
00:09:52,224 --> 00:09:54,393
[Corey] I've got to ask you,
is this a smart decision

143
00:09:54,427 --> 00:09:58,030
for Jey Uso to come here by himself

144
00:09:58,064 --> 00:10:01,167
after refusing to give his
own brother, Jimmy, audience

145
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,168
at RAW this Monday?

146
00:10:02,201 --> 00:10:06,122
[Wade] I'll tell you, the only
way it is smart for Jey Uso

147
00:10:06,155 --> 00:10:09,992
to be stepping in a ring
with Solo Sikoa et al. is

148
00:10:10,026 --> 00:10:14,497
if he is prepared
to acknowledge Solo Sikoa

149
00:10:14,530 --> 00:10:16,332
as his Tribal Chief.

150
00:10:16,365 --> 00:10:20,252
Outside of that, I'd be staying
well clear if I was Jey Uso.

00:12:07,493 --> 00:12:10,930
because at the end of the day,
I still care about you.

182
00:12:10,963 --> 00:12:12,698
You're still my little brother.

Look, Jimmy and Roman not here yet.

185
00:12:22,742 --> 00:12:28,314
So I came out here to talk
to you one on one, Uce to Uce.

186
00:12:32,785 --> 00:12:35,204
But think about what you're doing.

187
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,494
Think about what you're
doing to the family.

188
00:12:42,945 --> 00:12:46,732
Think about what you're doing
to The Bloodline.

189
00:12:51,220 --> 00:12:54,223
Don't nobody got bigger
issues with Roman than I do.

190
00:12:55,991 --> 00:12:59,011
But dividing the family
like this, it ain't it.

191
00:12:59,044 --> 00:13:00,312
I left.

192
00:13:00,346 --> 00:13:02,381
I left the family, Uce.

193
00:13:02,414 --> 00:13:04,767
I left to be my own man.

194
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:06,986
I left to RAW.

195
00:13:07,019 --> 00:13:09,755
Man, I became
the Intercontinental Champion,

196
00:13:09,789 --> 00:13:10,823

Hey, man, look, Uce.

Fighting over the ulafala, though,
is not it.

207

That right there is earned, not taken.

Roman's power, then do it.

210

the family while you do it.

But all you have to do is acknowledge me.

to follow in Jimmy's footsteps,

Elton Prince now legal for Pretty Deadly.

342
00:20:52,351 --> 00:20:54,653
[Wade] No matter how much you
feel like you're in control

343
00:20:54,686 --> 00:20:58,407
of this kind of match-up, three
teams that are effectively two

344
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,126
wins away for a shot at the gold,
and this could be it.

345
00:21:01,159 --> 00:21:02,377
[Corey] Cover.

346
00:21:02,411 --> 00:21:05,864
Tremendous tag team
innovation by Pretty Deadly.

347
00:21:07,299 --> 00:21:09,635
[Corey] But Ciampa has
enough left in the tank

348
00:21:09,668 --> 00:21:11,320
to keep this match alive.

349
00:21:11,353 --> 00:21:12,354
Let's look at this again.

350
00:21:12,387 --> 00:21:17,025
Off of the back of Prince into
a Codebreaker-type maneuver,

351
00:21:17,059 --> 00:21:19,094
double knees to the face of Ciampa.

352
00:21:19,127 --> 00:21:22,597

354
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,753

00:21:28,337 --> 00:21:30,956
[Corey] What's your obsession
with poppies? That a British thing?

356
00:21:30,989 --> 00:21:35,293
[Wade] Oh, man, the poppy is the
symbol of greatness in the UK.

357
00:21:35,327 --> 00:21:38,613
Our greatest generations
were all clad in poppies,

358
00:21:38,647 --> 00:21:39,931
and now we'll add these two.

359
00:21:39,965 --> 00:21:40,932
And what a display.

360
00:21:44,970 --> 00:21:48,273
[Corey] Oh my god,
Tommaso Champa from the middle rope.

361
00:21:48,307 --> 00:21:49,975
Air raid crash.

362
00:21:50,008 --> 00:21:53,996
Montez Ford with a 450, to Advance.

363
00:21:54,029 --> 00:21:55,614
One, two.

364
00:21:55,647 --> 00:21:59,568
[Corey] And Johnny Gargano
keeps it alive for DIY.

365
00:21:59,601 --> 00:22:02,738
[Wade] Ciampa going for broke,
and it almost backfired,

366
00:22:02,771 --> 00:22:06,725
such is the speed of Montez Ford.

367
00:22:06,842 --> 00:22:08,460
[Corey] Remember, triple threat tag-team

368
00:22:08,493 --> 00:22:12,130
rules are in effect despite
the chaos at the moment.

369
00:22:12,164 --> 00:22:14,466
Only one member of each respective team

370
00:22:14,499 --> 00:22:16,935
can be legal at any given time.

371
00:22:16,968 --> 00:22:19,521
[Wade] Good luck to this referee
trying to figure out exactly

372
00:22:19,554 --> 00:22:21,923
who is legal at any one point.

373
00:22:21,957 --> 00:22:24,042
[Corey] Beautiful double-team
by the Profits.

374
00:22:24,076 --> 00:22:26,161
Down goes Ciampa, but Pretty Deadly

375
00:22:26,194 --> 00:22:29,381
making their presence felt.
Kit Wilson looking to steal it.

376
00:22:31,917 --> 00:22:34,703
DIY will not be denied yet.

377
00:22:34,736 --> 00:22:36,938
[Wade]
Just milliseconds away from victory,

378
00:22:36,972 --> 00:22:39,041
and now Tommaso Ciampa isolated,

379
00:22:39,074 --> 00:22:40,559
completely alone in the ring.

380
00:22:40,592 --> 00:22:43,195
[Corey] Could be the moment
Pretty Deadly have been waiting for.

381
00:22:43,228 --> 00:22:45,964
But keep your eyes on Montez Ford.

382
00:22:45,997 --> 00:22:49,351
[Wade] Fast as lightning,
Montez Ford back to save the day

383
00:22:49,384 --> 00:22:52,170
for the Street Profits.

384
00:22:52,204 --> 00:22:54,289
[Corey] The adrenaline
pumping through the veins

385
00:22:54,322 --> 00:23:01,046
of Montez Ford,
making the long climb to the top.

386
00:23:01,079 --> 00:23:04,566
And Prince takes out 'Tez's legs.

387
00:23:04,599 --> 00:23:07,269
[Wade] Desperation move
there from Elton Prince,

388
00:23:07,302 --> 00:23:09,271
but it may come good in the end.

389
00:23:09,304 --> 00:23:13,325
PD have to go in for the kill,
and they have to do it now.

390
00:23:13,358 --> 00:23:16,611
[Corey] Here comes Angelo Dawkins
to the aid of Montez.

391
00:23:16,645 --> 00:23:18,130
Wilson spills to the floor.

392
00:23:18,163 --> 00:23:20,866
This is not where Elton wants to be, Wade.

393
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,539
Doomsday Blockbuster
by the Street Profits.

394
00:23:27,572 --> 00:23:28,974
But Ciampa and Gargano--

395
00:23:29,007 --> 00:23:30,275
Meet in the Middle.

396
00:23:30,308 --> 00:23:31,927
It's anyone's ballgame.

397
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,128
[Wade] Wait, two pins.

398
00:23:33,161 --> 00:23:34,129

399
00:23:34,162 --> 00:23:36,531
[Corey] Wait-- who's legal?

400
00:23:36,565 --> 00:23:38,467
Yes!

401
00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:39,468

Tommaso Ciampa pinned
the legal man, okay, here?

405
00:23:47,909 --> 00:23:49,761
Montez Ford did not, all right?

Ladies and gentlemen,
the winners of the match are DIY!

409
00:24:02,290 --> 00:24:05,327
[Wade] Well, you heard exactly
what Jessica Carr, the referee,

410
00:24:05,360 --> 00:24:06,528
just said there.

411
00:24:06,561 --> 00:24:10,148
Let's try and break this down here.

412
00:24:10,182 --> 00:24:11,867
[Corey] A great job by Jessica Carr,

413
00:24:11,900 --> 00:24:15,020
keeping her eyes on the action
during all of this chaos.

414
00:24:15,053 --> 00:24:17,005
[Wade] The legal man there was Kit Wilson.

415
00:24:17,038 --> 00:24:18,640
He actually got knocked out of the ring.

416
00:24:18,673 --> 00:24:22,077
Now, at this point,
Elton Prince is not legal.

417
00:24:22,110 --> 00:24:24,296
There had been a tag to Kit Wilson.

418
00:24:24,329 --> 00:24:27,532
The Street Profits clearly got
confused at this point, as were

419
00:24:27,566 --> 00:24:29,217
everybody else in the arena.

420
00:24:29,251 --> 00:24:33,889
But Tommaso Ciampa
kept his eye on the ball.

421
00:24:33,922 --> 00:24:37,792
Well, here's that tag to Kit Wilson
that took Elton Prince

422
00:24:37,826 --> 00:24:40,612
out of the equation.

423
00:24:40,645 --> 00:24:42,380
[Corey] Wow.

424
00:24:42,414 --> 00:24:44,015
[Wade] Street Profits thought they…

425
00:24:44,049 --> 00:24:45,016
Tag team lesson 101.

426
00:24:45,050 --> 00:24:47,219
[Wade] …had this one won,
but it was DIY who

427
00:24:47,252 --> 00:24:49,221
kept their eye on the ball,
pinned the legal man,

428
00:24:49,254 --> 00:24:50,505
and they are--
-It's ours now.

429
00:24:50,539 --> 00:24:51,506
We right the wrong.

430
00:24:51,540 --> 00:24:53,692
That certainly won't sit well
with the Street Profits,

431
00:24:53,725 --> 00:24:54,693
no doubt about that.

432
00:24:54,726 --> 00:24:56,511
But it is undeniable that DIY took

433
00:24:56,545 --> 00:24:59,781
that ever-important next step
towards hopefully once again

434
00:24:59,814 --> 00:25:01,500
becoming Tag Team champions.

435
00:25:01,533 --> 00:25:04,503
Another superstar, Wade,
who took the important next step

00:25:04,536 --> 00:25:06,838
toward potentially earning gold happened

437
00:25:06,872 --> 00:25:09,541
last week here on SmackDown
in the women's division.

438
00:25:09,574 --> 00:25:13,712
[Wade] Yeah, this, as you say,
on SmackDown, Jax versus Naomi.

439
00:25:13,745 --> 00:25:17,432
Tiffany Stratton was
prevented from intervening

440
00:25:17,465 --> 00:25:19,651
by the massive Raquel.

441
00:25:19,684 --> 00:25:24,422
And as Jax was looking
to close herself in on victory,

442
00:25:24,456 --> 00:25:28,343
once again intervening was Raquel,

443
00:25:28,376 --> 00:25:31,863
allowing Liv Morgan to smash
Nia Jax with the Money

444
00:25:31,897 --> 00:25:34,683
in the Bank briefcase, and Naomi picked up

445
00:25:34,716 --> 00:25:41,389
a massive W against the champ,
much to the chagrin of Nia Jax.

446
00:25:42,307 --> 00:25:44,659

478
00:27:41,042 --> 00:27:42,961
And then I have Naomi on my back,

479

I could teach her a lesson.

480

00:29:46,784 --> 00:29:49,454
and she is up against the Boujee Bully

530
00:29:49,487 --> 00:29:52,006
from NXT, Lash Legend.

531
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,909
These two go head-to-head
here on SmackDown next.

532
00:29:54,943 --> 00:29:58,096

[ring announcer] Accompanied
by Jakara Jackson,

536
00:30:08,206 --> 00:30:11,292
from Atlanta, Georgia, representing

537
00:30:11,326 --> 00:30:17,031
Meta-Four, Lash Legend!

538
00:30:17,065 --> 00:30:20,018
[Corey] Well, as we prepare for
singles action in the women's

539
00:30:20,051 --> 00:30:22,003
division, I would not
be surprised for there

540
00:30:22,036 --> 00:30:26,324
to be some implications
in the tag-team division

541
00:30:26,357 --> 00:30:29,177
as Lash Legend prepares to go
one-on-one with Piper Niven,

542
00:30:29,210 --> 00:30:31,963
the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions,

543
00:30:31,996 --> 00:30:37,602
Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair, with some
of the best seats in the house.

544
00:30:37,635 --> 00:30:40,455
Obviously, it was last
week here on SmackDown

545
00:30:40,488 --> 00:30:42,423
where Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson

546
00:30:42,457 --> 00:30:44,142
had the opportunity to challenge

547
00:30:44,175 --> 00:30:45,643
for those championships.

548
00:30:45,677 --> 00:30:46,911
Piper Niven played a role.

549
00:30:46,945 --> 00:30:49,814
Chelsea Green played a role
that followed all the way

550
00:30:49,848 --> 00:30:51,733
to Monday Night RAW
involving Damage CTRL and

551
00:30:51,766 --> 00:30:53,234
their championship opportunity, Wade.

552
00:30:53,268 --> 00:30:55,904
[Wade] Yeah, ultimately, it
was Niven and Chelsea Green

553
00:30:55,937 --> 00:30:59,023
on the outside who cost Lash
Legend and Jakara Jackson

554
00:30:59,057 --> 00:31:00,408
their big opportunity.

555
00:31:00,441 --> 00:31:02,794
And hence we have this fallout right now.

556
00:31:02,827 --> 00:31:03,861
[Corey] A little standoff.

557
00:31:03,895 --> 00:31:05,647
Not too many women have the strength

558
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:09,067
to stand up to Piper Niven,
but I assure you,

559
00:31:09,100 --> 00:31:13,221
Niven will not be bullied by
the Boujee Bully, Lash Legend.

560
00:31:13,254 --> 00:31:15,807
[Wade]
Two of the biggest and baddest women

561
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,159
we've ever had here in WWE.

562
00:31:18,192 --> 00:31:22,830
Neither woman looking to take a step back.

563
00:31:22,864 --> 00:31:26,701
Piper Niven just mowing
through the competition.

564
00:31:26,734 --> 00:31:27,702
[Corey] Look out.

565
00:31:27,735 --> 00:31:30,255
Legend out of the way
just in the nick of time.

566
00:31:30,288 --> 00:31:32,423
[Wade] Smart from Lash,
that basement crossbody.

567
00:31:32,457 --> 00:31:33,441
[Corey] Ooh!

568
00:31:33,474 --> 00:31:35,026
[Wade] Oh, big pump kick to the jaw.

569
00:31:35,059 --> 00:31:37,211
[Corey] Chelsea Green knows
exactly how that feels.

570
00:31:37,245 --> 00:31:40,048
Big splash by Legend into the cover.

571
00:31:40,081 --> 00:31:44,002
Last week it was Lash Legend
delivering that exact same kick

572
00:31:44,035 --> 00:31:46,087
to Chelsea Green,
which sent Chelsea spilling

573
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,489
over our announce desk,
which, it could be argued,

574
00:31:48,523 --> 00:31:50,892
opened the door
for the champions to retain,

575
00:31:50,925 --> 00:31:53,795
and the power of Niven on display.

576
00:31:53,828 --> 00:31:56,981
[Wade] These women just dropping
bombs from the word go.

577
00:31:57,015 --> 00:31:57,982
[Corey] Cover by Piper.

578
00:32:00,518 --> 00:32:02,437
Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson, of course,

579
00:32:02,470 --> 00:32:06,040
members of Meta-Four,
run roughshod over NXT

580
00:32:06,074 --> 00:32:07,842
for quite some time.

581
00:32:07,875 --> 00:32:10,445
[Wade] Keep a very close eye
on Chelsea Green and

582
00:32:10,478 --> 00:32:14,983
Jakara Jackson on the outside,
desperately willing

583
00:32:15,016 --> 00:32:17,452
their partners to victory here.

584
00:32:17,485 --> 00:32:20,305
[Corey] I'm a happily married man, Wade.
That's getting me in trouble.

585
00:32:20,338 --> 00:32:23,091
Nobody home.

586
00:32:23,124 --> 00:32:24,392
[yell]

587
00:32:24,425 --> 00:32:27,278
[Corey] Big overhand shot by Legend.

588
00:32:27,312 --> 00:32:29,831
[Wade] Technique went out
of the window from the off

589
00:32:29,864 --> 00:32:31,249
when it came to these two.

590
00:32:31,282 --> 00:32:32,250
[Corey] No way.

591
00:32:32,283 --> 00:32:35,136
[Wade] Throwing everything
they have at one another.

592
00:32:35,169 --> 00:32:37,739
[Corey] It looked to me like
Lash Legend was gonna attempt

593
00:32:37,772 --> 00:32:40,558
to chokeslam Piper Niven.

594
00:32:40,591 --> 00:32:44,462
We've seen in NXT the power
possessed by Legend.

595
00:32:44,495 --> 00:32:47,532
This woman is the real deal.

596
00:32:47,565 --> 00:32:50,852
[Wade] Look-- oh, back just gave way.

597
00:32:50,885 --> 00:32:52,720
She did a lot better than most when

598
00:32:52,754 --> 00:32:55,023
it came to lifting up Piper Niven, who

599
00:32:55,056 --> 00:32:56,474
is now going in for the kill.

600
00:32:56,507 --> 00:32:59,027
[Corey] Oh my god, how's this for power?

601
00:32:59,060 --> 00:33:00,028
Wow.

602
00:33:00,061 --> 00:33:03,598
Big bodyslam from Niven.

603
00:33:03,631 --> 00:33:08,302
Chelsea Green obviously
doesn't like what she's seeing.

604
00:33:08,336 --> 00:33:10,955
Ms. Green letting her
presence be felt again,

605
00:33:10,988 --> 00:33:12,607
to the surprise of no one.

606
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:14,025
[Wade] Well, that's the distraction

607
00:33:14,058 --> 00:33:17,078
that cost Lash Legend
and Jakara Jackson last week.

608
00:33:17,111 --> 00:33:18,212
Will it do the same here?

609
00:33:18,246 --> 00:33:21,115
[Corey] But Legend took her
eyes off of her opponent.

610
00:33:21,149 --> 00:33:24,786
And that could cost Lash in a big way.

611
00:33:24,819 --> 00:33:27,305
Niven making the climb.

612
00:33:27,338 --> 00:33:29,607
[Wade] Bone-crushing offense.

613
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:30,842
[Corey] Legend out of the way.

614
00:33:33,628 --> 00:33:37,882
Can Lash legend topple Piper Niven?

615
00:33:37,915 --> 00:33:38,883
Look at this.

616
00:33:38,916 --> 00:33:40,318
This is outrageous!

617
00:33:40,351 --> 00:33:41,319
[scream]

618
00:33:41,352 --> 00:33:43,137
[Corey] Unbelievable.

619
00:33:43,171 --> 00:33:45,473
Into the cover, hooks the leg.

620
00:33:45,506 --> 00:33:47,091
[crowd counts "1, 2, 3"]

621
00:33:47,125 --> 00:33:49,260
Lash Legend with the win.

622
00:33:49,293 --> 00:33:50,661
[Def Rebel, "what u want"]

623
00:33:50,695 --> 00:33:56,751
[ring announcer] Here is
your winner, Lash Legend!

624
00:33:56,784 --> 00:33:58,469
[Wade] Well, that has to be the biggest

625
00:33:58,503 --> 00:34:03,274
win of Lash Legend's
short career thus far,

626
00:34:03,307 --> 00:34:06,811
and even the tag champs, Belair
and Cargill, looked impressed,

627
00:34:06,844 --> 00:34:08,980
and this is where it
all went into meltdown

628
00:34:09,013 --> 00:34:10,898
on the outside of the ring, allowing

629
00:34:10,932 --> 00:34:12,917
Piper Niven to capitalize.

630
00:34:12,950 --> 00:34:16,187
But just when she thought
she had this one in the bag,

631
00:34:16,220 --> 00:34:20,458
the athleticism and power of
Lash Legend came to the fore,

632
00:34:20,491 --> 00:34:21,459
scoring the victory.

633
00:34:21,492 --> 00:34:22,744
[Corey] And I've got to say,

634
00:34:22,777 --> 00:34:26,731
after the official three-count,
both Belair and Cargill looked

635
00:34:26,764 --> 00:34:30,084
extremely impressed by what Lash Legend

636
00:34:30,118 --> 00:34:32,670
was able to do moments ago.

637
00:34:32,703 --> 00:34:34,288
[Wade] Is that impressed or is that

638
00:34:34,322 --> 00:34:38,009
terrified because Lash Legend
and Jakara Jackson are coming

639
00:34:38,042 --> 00:34:39,644
for those championships?

640
00:34:39,677 --> 00:34:42,814
[Corey] Well, the good news is the winners
here are the WWE Universe.

641
00:34:42,847 --> 00:34:47,168
The women's tag division
continues to heat up.

642
00:34:47,201 --> 00:34:50,638
And if we are talking championships,
how about this?

643
00:34:50,671 --> 00:34:56,043
Over 150 carats in diamond
weight in each championship,

with their efforts on signs.

662
00:35:43,841 --> 00:35:45,660
My personal view is that Evansville,

663
00:35:45,693 --> 00:35:48,763
Indiana, several weeks ago,
was the best with the signs.

664
00:35:48,796 --> 00:35:51,449
They broke the world record
for Wade Barrett signs

665
00:35:51,482 --> 00:35:52,450

this would be done by now.

713
00:38:54,348 --> 00:38:57,735
[Corey] Cody Rhodes, a superstar
no stranger to the goings

714
00:38:57,768 --> 00:39:01,339
on within The Bloodline,
but now the American Nightmare

715
00:39:01,372 --> 00:39:05,276
must shift his focus
to two weeks from tomorrow,

716
00:39:05,309 --> 00:39:06,460
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

717
00:39:09,296 --> 00:39:11,966
Cody Rhodes, the Undisputed WWE Champion,

719

the winner of that match
will be crowned the first

720
00:39:17,955 --> 00:39:22,543

be champion versus champion for
the Crown Jewel Championship.

726
00:39:35,072 --> 00:39:38,125
But this week, Wade, during
WWE's aforementioned tour

727
00:39:38,159 --> 00:39:41,445
of the United Kingdom,
both Cody Rhodes and Gunther

728
00:39:41,479 --> 00:39:44,365
shared the ring with another world champ.

729
00:39:44,398 --> 00:39:47,601
I am talking about the UFC
Interim Heavyweight

730
00:39:47,635 --> 00:39:51,155
Champion Tom Aspinall.

734

And I believe Aspinall made
it known that potentially,

735
00:40:01,499 --> 00:40:03,350
after his UFC career has finished,

736
00:40:03,384 --> 00:40:07,121
he's very interested in crossing
over here to the world of WWE.

737
00:40:07,154 --> 00:40:09,240
[Wade] Yes, he is,
and I'm glad I'm retired.

738
00:40:09,273 --> 00:40:12,993
Do not want to lock horns
with Tom Aspinall.

739
00:40:13,027 --> 00:40:15,913
[crowd cheering]

740
00:40:18,332 --> 00:40:21,235
[crowd chanting "Cody"]

741
00:40:30,161 --> 00:40:34,582
Before my remarks,
we have an unbelievably-sized

742
00:40:34,615 --> 00:40:36,133
crowd this evening.

743
00:40:36,167 --> 00:40:38,335
[crowd cheers]

744
00:40:40,671 --> 00:40:45,826
I wanted to just make sure
that our friends up there,

745
00:40:45,860 --> 00:40:49,630
we all say hi to our friends up
there, our friends down here,

746
00:40:49,663 --> 00:40:51,999
we say hi to all them.

747
00:40:52,032 --> 00:40:54,368
[crowd cheers]

748
00:40:58,155 --> 00:41:02,026
A very wise individual
recently said to me,

749
00:41:02,059 --> 00:41:05,146
when it comes to the Pantheon

750
00:41:05,179 --> 00:41:08,265
of top men and top women
in professional wrestling,

751
00:41:09,250 --> 00:41:12,219
who would be the next leader,
he said that

752
00:41:12,253 --> 00:41:15,055
the next one doesn't always look
like the last one.

753
00:41:15,856 --> 00:41:18,425
It's been a quote I've been thinking about
quite a bit lately.

754
00:41:19,477 --> 00:41:25,833
But in regards to this
Crown Jewel Championship,

755
00:41:26,717 --> 00:41:28,369
it's not about the next one.

756
00:41:28,402 --> 00:41:30,287
It's not about the last one.

757
00:41:30,321 --> 00:41:33,741
It's about who is going
to be the first one.

758
00:41:37,428 --> 00:41:43,517
So many what-ifs
in the history of our sport.

759
00:41:44,502 --> 00:41:45,986
I'll take you down that road.

760
00:41:46,020 --> 00:41:50,357
What if
the NWA World's Champion Harley Race

761
00:41:50,391 --> 00:41:54,862
fought against the WWWE's
Bruno Sammartino?

762
00:41:54,895 --> 00:41:57,915
What if the AWA's Nick Bockwinkel

763
00:41:57,948 --> 00:42:00,784
went against the Nature Boy Ric Flair,

764
00:42:00,818 --> 00:42:03,304
champion versus champion?

765
00:42:06,056 --> 00:42:11,779
What if WCW's Bill Goldberg
fought Stone Cold Steve Austin?

766
00:42:11,812 --> 00:42:14,248
[crowd cheers]

767
00:42:15,733 --> 00:42:20,087
And often, when these
what-ifs did come to fruition,

768
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,991
the outcome was not always satisfactory--

769
00:42:24,024 --> 00:42:25,743
a clever out, if you will.

770
00:42:25,776 --> 00:42:30,264
When it comes to "Crown Jewel,"
at the end of that night,

771
00:42:30,297 --> 00:42:35,436
there will be a definitive
Crown Jewel Champion.

772
00:42:39,757 --> 00:42:42,927
Again, champion versus champion,

773
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,696
I am not going to stand here

774
00:42:45,729 --> 00:42:49,300
and disparage my opponent,
RAW's World Heavyweight

775
00:42:49,333 --> 00:42:51,252
Champion, Gunther.

776
00:42:51,285 --> 00:42:54,088
[crowd cheers, boos]

777
00:42:58,359 --> 00:43:02,479
Widely respected by his
peers and legends alike,

778
00:43:02,513 --> 00:43:05,366
brother could chop a tree down
with his hand.

779
00:43:05,399 --> 00:43:07,534
Most men who walk those hallways

780
00:43:07,568 --> 00:43:09,503
are terrified of Gunther.

781
00:43:13,057 --> 00:43:16,410
I'm not.

782
00:43:16,443 --> 00:43:23,167
But even if I was,
I wouldn't bet against me.

783
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:27,121
Why do I think that I
am leaving "Crown Jewel"

784
00:43:27,154 --> 00:43:29,940
as champion?

785
00:43:29,974 --> 00:43:35,796
Well, for starters, look at this thing.

786
00:43:35,829 --> 00:43:39,650
Corey Graves been talking
about it all night on commentary,

787
00:43:39,683 --> 00:43:42,369
one of the most beautifully
designed tidal belts

788
00:43:42,403 --> 00:43:44,722
in the history of our sport.

789
00:43:44,755 --> 00:43:48,976
But beauty, beauty is only skin-deep.

790
00:43:49,009 --> 00:43:51,762
In the last two-plus years, you and I,

791
00:43:51,795 --> 00:43:55,115
the WWE audience,
pro wrestling fans alike,

792
00:43:55,149 --> 00:43:57,401
we have gotten to know
each other, have we not?

793
00:43:57,434 --> 00:43:59,853
[crowd cheers]

794
00:43:59,887 --> 00:44:04,241
So you know when I came back to WWE,

795
00:44:04,274 --> 00:44:07,828
I wanted to take the John Cena schedule.

796
00:44:07,861 --> 00:44:10,314
I wanted to take that model.

797
00:44:10,347 --> 00:44:12,916
And by god, we did take that schedule.

798
00:44:12,950 --> 00:44:15,135
Hell, we even added to that schedule.

799
00:44:15,169 --> 00:44:16,136
I have bled.

800
00:44:16,170 --> 00:44:17,237
I have sweat.

801
00:44:17,271 --> 00:44:18,772
I have paid the price.

802
00:44:18,806 --> 00:44:21,008
And I am not foolish
enough to think that I

803
00:44:21,041 --> 00:44:22,843
am done paying the price.

804
00:44:22,876 --> 00:44:29,850
But, again, it's almost skin-deep.

805
00:44:31,835 --> 00:44:36,724
The real reason that I think
I'm leaving "Crown Jewel"

806
00:44:36,757 --> 00:44:42,963
as champion,
she's sitting at home right now.

807
00:44:42,996 --> 00:44:45,432
She's about three foot tall.

808
00:44:45,466 --> 00:44:50,287
And I need her to know that
when my bones turn to dust,

809
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,322
my name will be attached to this title

810
00:44:52,356 --> 00:44:53,807
as its first champion.

811
00:44:53,841 --> 00:44:56,460
I need her to know the name was given

812
00:44:56,493 --> 00:44:59,196
to me is the same name
that was given to her,

813
00:44:59,229 --> 00:45:02,800
and it will matter, and she
will know you play the game not

814
00:45:02,833 --> 00:45:06,787
to lose, but you play to win.

815
00:45:06,820 --> 00:45:09,189
[crowd cheers]

816
00:45:12,059 --> 00:45:17,831
Now I'd like to invite,
next Friday on SmackDown,

817
00:45:17,865 --> 00:45:20,601
the World Heavyweight Champion, Gunther,

818
00:45:20,634 --> 00:45:22,986
to stand in this ring with me.

819
00:45:23,020 --> 00:45:27,708
I'd like to ask him what his
reasons for all of this are,

820
00:45:27,741 --> 00:45:29,860
and I'd like to look him in the eyes

821
00:45:29,893 --> 00:45:36,366
and say, "Hey, champ,
what do you want to talk about?"

822
00:45:37,367 --> 00:45:40,537
[crowd cheers]

823
00:45:40,571 --> 00:45:43,757
[Corey] Well, there you have it,
the American Nightmare

824
00:45:43,791 --> 00:45:46,076
laying down the gauntlet, inviting

825
00:45:46,110 --> 00:45:49,496
the World Heavyweight Champion,
Gunther, to SmackDown

826
00:45:49,530 --> 00:45:50,497
next week.

827
00:45:50,531 --> 00:45:53,200
Wade, do you think Gunther
is gonna answer the call?

828
00:45:53,233 --> 00:45:55,786
[Wade] Gunther backs down to nobody.

829
00:45:55,819 --> 00:45:56,937
And let me tell you this.

830
00:45:56,970 --> 00:45:59,673
At "Crown Jewel,"
there are massive implications

831
00:45:59,706 --> 00:46:03,310
for the legacies of both Cody Rhodes
and the Ring General,

832
00:46:03,343 --> 00:46:07,264
Gunther, pending who wins that match-up
and that new championship.

833
00:46:07,297 --> 00:46:09,216
[Corey] Certainly seems
that Cody Rhodes has been

834
00:46:09,249 --> 00:46:11,235
able to shift his focus to Gunther and

835
00:46:11,268 --> 00:46:12,536
the Crown Jewel Championship.

836
00:46:12,569 --> 00:46:14,671
However, I've got
to believe that in the back

837
00:46:14,705 --> 00:46:16,573
of the American Nightmare's mind,

838
00:46:16,607 --> 00:46:21,245
one man is haunting every thought of Cody.

839
00:46:21,278 --> 00:46:22,396
Know what I'm talking about?

840
00:46:22,429 --> 00:46:24,131
[Wade] I know exactly who.

841
00:46:24,164 --> 00:46:25,566
Here is the-- couple of weeks ago,

842
00:46:25,599 --> 00:46:30,554
KO inexplicably jumping
Cody Rhodes in the aftermath

843
00:46:30,587 --> 00:46:32,556
of the "Bad Blood" PLE.

844
00:46:32,589 --> 00:46:34,441
What's the reason, KO?

845
00:46:34,475 --> 00:46:37,027
People were asking me why
I turned on Cody Rhodes.

846
00:46:37,060 --> 00:46:39,980
Cody Rhodes turned on--

847
00:46:40,013 --> 00:46:43,100
[Corey] Kevin was told not to
show up last week on SmackDown.

848
00:46:43,133 --> 00:46:45,836
And moments before a
confrontation between Owens and

849
00:46:45,869 --> 00:46:48,005
Rhodes, Randy Orton, of all people,

850
00:46:48,038 --> 00:46:51,275
would play peacekeeper
between his two friends.

851
00:46:51,308 --> 00:46:53,994
[Wade] Randy Orton tried to calm down KO

852
00:46:54,027 --> 00:46:56,630
and received an errant shot, immediately

853
00:46:56,663 --> 00:46:59,166
gave one back to KO.

854
00:46:59,199 --> 00:47:03,587
And then, later on, as these
two were discussing the issue,

855
00:47:03,620 --> 00:47:07,708
KO savagely attacked his now
former friend, Randy Orton.

856
00:47:07,741 --> 00:47:08,709
[interposing voices]

857
00:47:08,742 --> 00:47:10,527
[Wade] It would appear that Kevin Owens

858
00:47:10,561 --> 00:47:13,514
is now back to his most
unpredictable worst.

859
00:47:13,547 --> 00:47:15,299
-We need help here.
-[Wade] Keep clear.

860
00:47:15,332 --> 00:47:16,300
Medics right now.

861
00:47:16,333 --> 00:47:17,568
Let's go.

862
00:47:17,601 --> 00:47:18,519
[man] Need some help.

863
00:47:21,188 --> 00:47:25,526
I've been in WWE now
for, uh, about ten years.

864
00:47:25,559 --> 00:47:29,162
Actually, it's been over
ten years just recently.

865
00:47:29,196 --> 00:47:32,766
And I've had a lot of ups
and downs over those ten years.

866
00:47:32,799 --> 00:47:38,305
But I don't think things have
ever felt as bad as they do

867
00:47:38,338 --> 00:47:45,095
right now, because for WWE
officials to tell me to stay

868
00:47:46,096 --> 00:47:49,499
home and not come to work,
not come to SmackDown where I

869
00:47:49,533 --> 00:47:52,019
belong, because of what I did to Cody

870
00:47:52,052 --> 00:47:59,026
Rhodes after "Bad Blood," is
just so unfair and ridiculous.

871
00:48:01,378 --> 00:48:06,750
I mean, look at what we've seen
WWE superstars do to each other

872
00:48:06,783 --> 00:48:08,285
in and out of the ring, in the locker

873
00:48:08,318 --> 00:48:11,588
rooms, all the ambush
attacks, the beatdowns.

874
00:48:11,622 --> 00:48:15,876
[scoffs] And I get told to stay away

875
00:48:15,909 --> 00:48:18,061
because I dropped their little golden boy

876
00:48:18,095 --> 00:48:21,365
outside of his stupid bus?

877
00:48:21,398 --> 00:48:23,166
Ah, come on.

878
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:26,136
You know, that really--

879
00:48:26,169 --> 00:48:32,309
um, that really makes me ask
myself just how appreciated and

880
00:48:32,342 --> 00:48:35,729
valued I am by this company.

881
00:48:35,762 --> 00:48:38,348
But that-- you know, that I can live with.

882
00:48:38,382 --> 00:48:39,549
I can kind of get past that.

883
00:48:39,583 --> 00:48:45,872
What I can't get over, though,
is what Randy Orton did to me.

884
00:48:45,906 --> 00:48:50,410
Randy, I can't believe that
you betrayed me like that.

885
00:48:54,081 --> 00:48:55,549
You know, you can let people say

886
00:48:55,582 --> 00:48:56,967
whatever they want about me.

887
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:58,885
Kevin Owens turns on his
friends, blah, blah.

888
00:48:58,919 --> 00:48:59,886
It doesn't matter.

889
00:48:59,920 --> 00:49:05,726
I would have never done that
to you, ever, because I thought

890
00:49:05,759 --> 00:49:09,179
what we had was different.

891
00:49:09,212 --> 00:49:15,902
Dude, I-- I just can't believe
you picked Cody Rhodes over me.

892
00:49:19,706 --> 00:49:23,160
And, you know, I gotta
be honest with everybody.

893
00:49:23,193 --> 00:49:25,796
With everything that's
happening right now,

894
00:49:25,829 --> 00:49:30,567
between the disrespect
shown to me by WWE and Randy

895
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:32,152
breaking my--

896
00:49:32,185 --> 00:49:37,024
my trust like that, I--

897
00:49:37,057 --> 00:49:42,045
I really don't know
if or when I can come back.

898
00:49:49,953 --> 00:49:51,822
[crowd cheers]

899
00:49:51,855 --> 00:49:54,758
I don't know what you have
planned for Kevin Owens.

900
00:49:54,791 --> 00:49:58,445
I don't know what anyone else
has planned for Kevin Owens.

901
00:49:58,478 --> 00:50:00,981
But I need to get my hands
on Kevin Owens, and I want

902
00:50:01,014 --> 00:50:02,399
to do it at "Crown Jewel."

903
00:50:02,432 --> 00:50:03,934
I had a feeling this was coming.

904
00:50:03,967 --> 00:50:08,255
Randy, I'm sorry.

905
00:50:08,288 --> 00:50:09,873
It's not something I can do right now.

906
00:50:09,906 --> 00:50:11,191
Whoa, wait, wait.

907
00:50:11,224 --> 00:50:14,611
What do you mean it's not something
that you can do it right now?

908
00:50:14,644 --> 00:50:16,430
You don't understand.

909
00:50:16,463 --> 00:50:18,632
It's not that I won't.

910
00:50:18,665 --> 00:50:19,716
I can't.

911
00:50:19,750 --> 00:50:20,717
You can't?

912
00:50:20,751 --> 00:50:23,637
-I don't think you understand.
-I don't think you understand, Randy.

913
00:50:23,670 --> 00:50:25,505
I don't think you
understand what I'm saying.

914
00:50:25,539 --> 00:50:27,758
-Not asking permission.
-Randy, with all due respect--

915
00:50:27,791 --> 00:50:30,594
What I'm saying is I want
Kevin Owens at "Crown Jewel."

916
00:50:30,627 --> 00:50:35,082
With all due respect,
I'm saying I can't, because it's

917
00:50:35,115 --> 00:50:37,334
coming from up above.

918
00:50:41,922 --> 00:50:43,657
Right.

919
00:50:43,690 --> 00:50:44,941
Well, then, I guess--

920
00:50:44,975 --> 00:50:47,144
I guess I know who I need to talk to.

921
00:50:51,281 --> 00:50:52,315

924
00:50:55,068 --> 00:50:58,922
for a match at "Crown Jewel."

925
00:50:58,955 --> 00:51:02,192
We got another triple threat
tag-team match coming your way.

926
00:51:02,225 --> 00:51:04,094
And, Wade, I still can't get over the fact

927
00:51:04,127 --> 00:51:05,579
that Roman Reigns, a few minutes

928
00:51:05,612 --> 00:51:08,865
ago, said he is going to
acknowledge Solo Sikoa tonight.

929
00:51:08,899 --> 00:51:10,100
[Wade] What's the old adage?

930
00:51:10,133 --> 00:51:12,085
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em?

931
00:51:12,119 --> 00:51:14,187
Is that where Roman Reigns' mind is at?

932
00:51:14,221 --> 00:51:15,689
We're gonna find out later tonight.

933
00:51:15,722 --> 00:51:16,923
Can't be stopped.

Quite simply, Wade,
Alex Shelley, Chris Sabin

972
00:53:31,041 --> 00:53:35,078
have innovated and influenced

TNA Wrestling Tag Team Champions

977

looking to test their skills in WWE.

978
00:53:48,625 --> 00:53:50,043
[Wade] You might be right, Corey.

979
00:53:50,076 --> 00:53:51,912
These guys-- and Cody Rhodes mentioned

980
00:53:51,945 --> 00:53:54,331
a few historical examples earlier,

981
00:53:54,364 --> 00:53:59,352
but the Motor City Machine
Guns are the ultimate what-if.

982
00:53:59,386 --> 00:54:03,907
These guys are great, but what
if they competed in WWE?

983
00:54:03,940 --> 00:54:07,744
Now we're gonna find out,
and it has not started well at all.

984
00:54:07,777 --> 00:54:10,730
[Corey] Chris Sabin receiving
a very painful welcome to WWE--

985
00:54:10,764 --> 00:54:12,482
again, under triple threat tag-team rules,

986
00:54:12,515 --> 00:54:15,118
one member of each team
remains legal at all times.

987
00:54:15,151 --> 00:54:17,520
[Wade] Well, the Motor City Machine Guns

988
00:54:17,554 --> 00:54:19,906
have been trending online all day

989
00:54:19,940 --> 00:54:21,775
after it was announced they're here.

990
00:54:21,808 --> 00:54:23,376

992
00:54:26,179 --> 00:54:30,734
You're not just going to waltz
into SmackDown and take over.

993
00:54:30,767 --> 00:54:33,253
[Corey] Again, when it comes
to tag-team chemistry, Sabin

994
00:54:33,286 --> 00:54:35,238
and Shelley second to none.

995
00:54:35,272 --> 00:54:37,924
They have influenced
and created a brand-new style

996
00:54:37,958 --> 00:54:40,577
of tag-team wrestling,
which has really become the norm

997
00:54:40,610 --> 00:54:42,245
over the last decade or so.

998
00:54:42,279 --> 00:54:44,147
And it could be argued
that Shelley and Sabin

999
00:54:44,180 --> 00:54:45,348
were the innovators of it.

1000
00:54:45,382 --> 00:54:46,333
[Wade] Yeah, absolutely.

1001
00:54:46,366 --> 00:54:48,501
They have dominated around the world.

1002
00:54:48,535 --> 00:54:51,137
The question is, can you
do it under the biggest

1003
00:54:51,171 --> 00:54:56,526
spotlight of all against
the best teams here in WWE?

1004
00:54:56,559 --> 00:54:58,211
[Corey] Here we go.

1005
00:54:58,244 --> 00:55:00,647
He was shot out of a cannon,
Chris Sabin taking

1006
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:02,983
everybody down, but Waller just dropped

1007
00:55:03,016 --> 00:55:05,235
Shelley with a right hand.

1008
00:55:05,268 --> 00:55:07,704
Remember, Waller and Theory,
back at WrestleMania,

1009
00:55:07,737 --> 00:55:10,040
became Tag Team Champions in a six-pack

1010
00:55:10,073 --> 00:55:11,308
challenge ladder match.

1011
00:55:11,424 --> 00:55:13,460
[Wade] They've been
complaining about losing

1012
00:55:13,493 --> 00:55:15,562
those championships ever since.

1013
00:55:15,595 --> 00:55:19,916
This is their ticket back to the big time,

1014
00:55:19,949 --> 00:55:21,368
though that ticket may have just

1015
00:55:21,401 --> 00:55:25,088
been ripped up by the
Motor City Machine Guns.

1016
00:55:25,121 --> 00:55:26,740
[Corey] Let me ask you this, Wade.

1017
00:55:26,773 --> 00:55:30,010
With all of the accomplishments
in the Machine Guns' career,

1018
00:55:30,043 --> 00:55:33,430
is it an advantage having
inspired so many wrestlers

1019
00:55:33,463 --> 00:55:34,881
over the last generation?

1020
00:55:34,914 --> 00:55:37,017
[Wade] Just puts added
pressure on the shoulders

1021
00:55:37,050 --> 00:55:38,651
of the Motor City Machine Guns.

1022
00:55:38,685 --> 00:55:40,537
Yeah, you've dominated around the world.

1023
00:55:40,570 --> 00:55:44,591
You are expected to do
the same here on SmackDown.

1024
00:55:44,624 --> 00:55:46,826
Can you live up to the billing that you've

1025
00:55:46,860 --> 00:55:50,880
created for yourselves over
the past 18 or so years?

1026
00:55:50,914 --> 00:55:53,400
[Corey] Alex Shelley,
an absolute wizard when it

1027
00:55:53,433 --> 00:55:55,068
comes to technical wrestling.

1028
00:55:55,101 --> 00:55:56,736
There was nothing fancy there.

1029
00:55:56,770 --> 00:55:58,955
Waller just knocked Shelley's
teeth down his throat.

1030
00:56:02,642 --> 00:56:06,796
[Corey] Beautiful double-team
by Legado Del Fantasma,

1031
00:56:06,830 --> 00:56:09,315
Angel and Berto--

1032
00:56:09,349 --> 00:56:11,851
Alex Shelley spending
a significant amount of time

1033
00:56:11,885 --> 00:56:14,738
up in the air before being driven
face-first into the buckle.

1034
00:56:14,771 --> 00:56:16,539
-[Wade] Oh.
-[Corey] High-Low.

1035
00:56:16,573 --> 00:56:17,590
That could do it.

1036
00:56:17,624 --> 00:56:21,661
[Wade] Poor Alex Shelley getting
beaten from pillar to post on

1037
00:56:21,694 --> 00:56:24,514
his debut here on SmackDown.

1038
00:56:24,547 --> 00:56:26,616
[Corey] Good kick by Angel
right between the eyes

1039

of Grayson Waller.

1040
00:56:27,767 --> 00:56:29,803
And, again, at stake here,
an opportunity--

1041
00:56:29,836 --> 00:56:33,223
beautiful dueling Moonsaults.

1042
00:56:33,256 --> 00:56:36,242

been demanding opportunities

1043
00:56:36,276 --> 00:56:40,780
for his men here on SmackDown,
as well as Elektra Lopez,

1044
00:56:40,814 --> 00:56:42,499
who stood at ringside.

1045
00:56:42,532 --> 00:56:45,235
They are proving their worth right now.

1046
00:56:45,268 --> 00:56:47,253
[Corey] Again, the winners
of this triple threat

1047
00:56:47,287 --> 00:56:49,939
will advance to battle DIY next week,

1048
00:56:49,973 --> 00:56:51,758
with the winners of that contest earning

1049
00:56:51,791 --> 00:56:54,210
a Tag Team Title opportunity.

1050
00:56:54,244 --> 00:56:57,730
[Wade] Grayson Waller looking
for that vintage Waller--

1051
00:56:57,764 --> 00:56:59,165
denied.

1052
00:56:59,199 --> 00:57:00,950
[Corey] Caught out
of midair by Alex Shelley,

1053
00:57:00,984 --> 00:57:04,237
who's firing off knees.

1054
00:57:04,270 --> 00:57:08,558
Spectacular double-team
by the Motor City Machine Guns.

1055
00:57:08,591 --> 00:57:11,027
[Wade] About time the Motor
City Machine Guns

1056
00:57:11,060 --> 00:57:14,147
started bouncing back,
but immediately on the offense

1057
00:57:14,180 --> 00:57:16,499
once again is Angel.

1058
00:57:16,533 --> 00:57:19,452
[Corey] This could be a bit of a learning
curve we're seeing here, Wade.

1059
00:57:19,486 --> 00:57:21,754
Different level of competition.

1060
00:57:21,788 --> 00:57:24,073
[Wade] Well, I've been
a cynic from the word go.

1061
00:57:24,107 --> 00:57:26,392
You have to prove it once
you get here to the very

1062
00:57:26,426 --> 00:57:28,027
top level on SmackDown.

1063
00:57:28,061 --> 00:57:29,028
[Corey] Oh, my goodness.

1064
00:57:29,062 --> 00:57:31,614
What power being shown by Angel and Berto

1065
00:57:31,648 --> 00:57:34,534
now from the top turnbuckle.

1066
00:57:34,567 --> 00:57:37,403
My god!

1067
00:57:37,437 --> 00:57:39,672
[Wade] After devastation in ring,

1068
00:57:39,706 --> 00:57:41,024
can they get the three-count?

1069
00:57:41,057 --> 00:57:43,626
[Corey] Cover by Berto.

1070
00:57:43,660 --> 00:57:48,264
[Wade] Just fortuitous landing
for A-Town Down Under.

1071
00:57:48,298 --> 00:57:49,782
Spectacular effort there…

1072
00:57:49,816 --> 00:57:50,783
[Corey] Tag made.

1073
00:57:50,817 --> 00:57:51,784
[Wade] …from Los Garza.

1074
00:57:51,818 --> 00:57:54,270
[Corey] Austin Theory now
legal for A-Town Down Under.

1075
00:57:54,304 --> 00:57:56,156
Angel hung across the top turnbuckle.

1076
00:57:56,189 --> 00:57:59,375
Big dropkick by Austin Theory.

1077
00:57:59,409 --> 00:58:02,011
Keep your eyes on Berto.

1078
00:58:02,045 --> 00:58:06,399
Caught Shelley with an enziguri in midair.

1079
00:58:06,432 --> 00:58:08,001
Back elbow rocks Berto.

1080
00:58:11,404 --> 00:58:15,642
And Theory driving Berto
down across his own knee.

1081
00:58:15,675 --> 00:58:18,795
A-Town Down Under wants
the gold yet again.

1082
00:58:18,828 --> 00:58:21,214
[Wade] No idea how Alex Shelley
is still standing

1083
00:58:21,247 --> 00:58:23,800
at this point, given the volley
of abuse he's received,

1084
00:58:23,833 --> 00:58:24,834
but he got the tag.

1085
00:58:24,868 --> 00:58:26,436
And Sabin's in there.

1086
00:58:26,553 --> 00:58:30,273
[Corey] And this is why the
Machine Guns are so special.

1087
00:58:30,306 --> 00:58:32,342
Flawless teamwork.

1088
00:58:32,375 --> 00:58:33,826
[Wade] This is what Aldis wanted.

1089
00:58:33,860 --> 00:58:36,396
Freshen up the tag
division and prove you are

1090
00:58:36,429 --> 00:58:38,948
the best team in the industry.

1091
00:58:38,982 --> 00:58:40,867
[Corey] Great teams are
always on the same page,

1092
00:58:40,900 --> 00:58:42,552
the Motor City Machine Guns practically

1093
00:58:42,585 --> 00:58:43,870
in the same syllable.

1094
00:58:43,903 --> 00:58:47,156
Now Alex Shelley perched on the top.

1095
00:58:47,190 --> 00:58:49,976
Sabin with Berto in his clutches.

1096
00:58:50,009 --> 00:58:52,011
Beautiful splash into the neckbreaker.

1097
00:58:52,045 --> 00:58:53,696
One, two, three.

1098
00:58:53,730 --> 00:58:56,966
[Corey] The Motor City Machine Guns
do it in their debut.

1099
00:58:57,083 --> 00:58:58,535
[rock music]

1100
00:58:58,568 --> 00:59:01,421
[ring announcer] Here are your winners,

1101
00:59:01,454 --> 00:59:06,809
Motor City Machine Guns!

1102
00:59:06,843 --> 00:59:10,179
[Corey] It was not easy, nor did Sabin and

1103
00:59:10,213 --> 00:59:13,349
Shelley expect it to be, but the outcome

1104
00:59:13,383 --> 00:59:14,834
was the desired one.

1105
00:59:14,867 --> 00:59:18,721
Welcome to SmackDown,
Motor City Machine Guns.

1106
00:59:18,755 --> 00:59:22,425
[Wade] They advance against DIY next week.

1107
00:59:22,458 --> 00:59:26,162
Right now I'd like to welcome
my guests, both Carmelo Hayes

1108
00:59:26,195 --> 00:59:29,015
and Andrade, just one week before their

1109
00:59:29,048 --> 00:59:33,202
scheduled proverbial Game 7
match-up here on SmackDown.

1110
00:59:33,236 --> 00:59:34,203
But tonight--

1111
00:59:34,237 --> 00:59:35,672
Byron, we don't need to do all that.

1112
00:59:35,705 --> 00:59:36,873
Ain't nothing to talk about.

1113
00:59:36,906 --> 00:59:37,957
Close your mouth.

1114
00:59:37,991 --> 00:59:38,958
[interposing voices]

1115
00:59:38,992 --> 00:59:40,677
-Close your mouth.
-What did you say?

1116
00:59:40,710 --> 00:59:43,212
Don't don't me to close his mouth.
Nobody paying to hear you.

1117
00:59:43,246 --> 00:59:44,731
How about you shut the hell up?

1118
00:59:44,764 --> 00:59:46,182
[shouting]

1119
00:59:48,351 --> 00:59:49,352
[official] Hey, hey, hey!

1120
00:59:49,385 --> 00:59:51,054
[shouting]

1121
00:59:52,055 --> 00:59:53,573
[official] Back it up.

1122
00:59:53,606 --> 00:59:54,574
Back it up.

1123
00:59:54,607 --> 00:59:56,376
[shouting]

1124
00:59:56,409 --> 00:59:57,560
[official] Get out of here.

1125
00:59:57,594 --> 00:59:58,962
Come on, get out of here.

1126
00:59:58,995 --> 00:59:59,963
Back up.

1127
00:59:59,996 --> 01:00:01,314
Back up right now.

1128
01:00:01,347 --> 01:00:03,650
Put that away and get
the hell out of here.

1129
01:00:03,683 --> 01:00:04,834
Now.

1130
01:00:04,867 --> 01:00:05,835
Now.

1131
01:00:05,868 --> 01:00:08,204
[Corey] Game 7 coming your way.

1132
01:00:08,237 --> 01:00:11,040
It has gotten so personal
between Carmelo and Andrade.

1133
01:00:11,074 --> 01:00:12,842
[Wade] I think that was Game 6.5,

1134
01:00:12,875 --> 01:00:14,260
but next week is the big one.

1135
01:00:14,294 --> 01:00:15,778
You're right, Corey.

1136
01:00:15,812 --> 01:00:18,064
[Corey] Don't know anything
about snatching another man's

1137
01:00:18,097 --> 01:00:22,468
chain as it never ends well for
the person doing the stealing.

match scheduled for one fall.

1147
01:00:43,439 --> 01:00:48,578
Introducing first, from
Orlando, Florida, Naomi!

1148
01:00:51,331 --> 01:00:54,350
[Corey] Well, Naomi no doubt
riding high after pinning

1149
01:00:54,384 --> 01:00:57,553
Nia Jax in the middle
of the ring last week,

1150
01:00:57,587 --> 01:00:59,939
but the work is just beginning.

1151
01:00:59,972 --> 01:01:03,810
Naomi joins forces with
Bayley to battle Nia Jax

1152
01:01:03,843 --> 01:01:09,198

action live next on SmackDown.

[Corey] It is time for tag-team
action in the women's division.

1157
01:01:23,379 --> 01:01:26,899
There you see Candice LeRae,
the newly crowned first-ever

1158
01:01:26,933 --> 01:01:30,169
WWE Women's Speed Champion.

1159
01:01:30,203 --> 01:01:31,721
There you've got Bayley,

1160
01:01:31,754 --> 01:01:36,059
a grand slam champion here in WWE,
standing beside Naomi,

1161
01:01:36,092 --> 01:01:40,580
who somehow managed to defeat
this irresistible force

1162
01:01:40,613 --> 01:01:41,814
last week, Wade.

1163
01:01:41,848 --> 01:01:45,385
[Wade] I'm still shocked that
Candice LeRae is out here

1164
01:01:45,418 --> 01:01:48,538
and she's partnering with Nia Jax.

1165
01:01:51,057 --> 01:01:52,909
[ring announcer] Making
her way to the ring,

1166
01:01:52,942 --> 01:01:55,945
from San Diego, California,

1167
01:01:55,978 --> 01:02:02,151
she is the WWE Women's Champion,

1168
01:02:03,152 --> 01:02:05,738
Nia Jax!

1169
01:02:05,772 --> 01:02:08,257
[Corey] Nia Jax no doubt
has a lot on her mind,

1170
01:02:08,291 --> 01:02:10,760
never mention the fact that
Tiffany Stratton was

1171
01:02:10,793 --> 01:02:13,463
her scheduled partner tonight,
but how about what's going down

1172
01:02:13,496 --> 01:02:14,831
at Crown Jewel?

1173
01:02:14,864 --> 01:02:17,617
We heard Cody talk about it regarding
his battle with Gunther.

1174
01:02:17,650 --> 01:02:20,319
The same happens
on the women's side of things.

1175
01:02:21,154 --> 01:02:26,442
Women's World Champion Liv Morgan battles
WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax.

1176
01:02:26,476 --> 01:02:29,462
The winner becomes the first-ever

1177
01:02:29,495 --> 01:02:33,733
Women's WWE Crown Jewel Champion,
again, two weeks from tomorrow.

1178
01:02:35,401 --> 01:02:37,620
And Nia's face tells the entire story.

1179
01:02:37,653 --> 01:02:39,655
We're used to seeing
the million-dollar smile

1180
01:02:39,689 --> 01:02:42,291
on that wrecking ball, but Nia skeptical,

1181
01:02:42,325 --> 01:02:45,128
to say the least, of Candice LeRae
as her partner tonight, Wade.

1182
01:02:45,161 --> 01:02:47,096
[Wade] Nia Jax has a ton on her plate,

1183
01:02:47,130 --> 01:02:49,682
not least the Crown Jewel
Championship in just

1184
01:02:49,715 --> 01:02:51,033
over two weeks' time.

1185
01:02:51,067 --> 01:02:54,036
And Nick Aldis, the GM of SmackDown,

1186
01:02:54,070 --> 01:02:58,007
should have given Jax the night off
once Tiffany Stratton

1187
01:02:58,040 --> 01:02:59,826
was out with the flu.

1188
01:02:59,859 --> 01:03:02,528
[Corey] Cover by Jax looking
to end this one early.

1189
01:03:02,562 --> 01:03:05,615
[Wade] That is why Nia Jax is such a pro.

1190
01:03:05,648 --> 01:03:07,750
She's been screwed over by Nick Aldis

1191
01:03:07,783 --> 01:03:10,036
tonight, yet still,
straight out of the blocks,

1192
01:03:10,069 --> 01:03:11,454
taking full control.

1193
01:03:11,487 --> 01:03:14,841
Now show us what you
can do, Candice LeRae.

1194
01:03:14,874 --> 01:03:16,792
[Corey] Got our first
glimpse of the Poison Pixie

1195
01:03:16,826 --> 01:03:18,711
in this tag-team match-up.

1196
01:03:18,744 --> 01:03:22,682
Bayley wasting no time ripping advantage
away from the opposing team.

1197
01:03:22,715 --> 01:03:24,467
Tag made to Naomi.

1198
01:03:24,500 --> 01:03:26,002
[Wade] Candice LeRae has been very

1199
01:03:26,035 --> 01:03:28,521
unhappy in the locker
room in recent months,

1200
01:03:28,554 --> 01:03:29,655
as has Indi Hartwell.

1201
01:03:29,689 --> 01:03:30,957
[Corey] Cover here by Naomi.

1202
01:03:30,990 --> 01:03:34,744
[Wade] Both feel like they've
been due some opportunities.

1203
01:03:34,777 --> 01:03:36,212
They've certainly made good on that

1204
01:03:36,245 --> 01:03:40,132
in the case of LeRae in winning
the WWE Women's

1205
01:03:40,166 --> 01:03:41,551
Speed Championship.

1206
01:03:41,584 --> 01:03:44,537
But imagine pulling out
another victory here tonight.

1207
01:03:44,570 --> 01:03:46,472
That would add some real momentum.

1208
01:03:52,044 --> 01:03:53,746
[Corey]
Right now Naomi having a little fun

1209
01:03:53,779 --> 01:03:57,250
at the champion's expense.

1210
01:03:57,283 --> 01:03:58,401
Maybe a little too much fun.

1211
01:03:58,434 --> 01:03:59,435
My goodness.

1212
01:03:59,468 --> 01:04:01,470
Jax feeling the glow.

1213
01:04:01,504 --> 01:04:02,505
[crowd oohs]

1214
01:04:02,538 --> 01:04:06,375
[Wade] Be very careful how much

1218
01:04:15,468 --> 01:04:18,504
[Wade] Taking on Nia Jax is a number

1219

[Corey] Tag-team action continues tonight

1232
01:04:53,839 --> 01:04:58,277
on SmackDown, Naomi and Bayley
battling Candice LeRae and

1233
01:04:58,311 --> 01:05:00,663
WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax.

1234

Here comes the Role Model.

1236
01:05:04,250 --> 01:05:06,469
[Wade]
This is the fresh Bayley after Naomi

1237
01:05:06,502 --> 01:05:09,972
has taken an utter beatdown
over the past five minutes

1238
01:05:10,006 --> 01:05:11,440
or so.

1239
01:05:11,474 --> 01:05:13,926
And now Candice LeRae
has to start figuring out

1240
01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:16,245
something very quick indeed.

1241
01:05:16,279 --> 01:05:19,248
[Corey] Bayley like a one-woman
wrecking crew right now,

1242
01:05:19,282 --> 01:05:21,767
flattening Jax and LeRae, looking

1243
01:05:21,801 --> 01:05:23,452
for the belly-to-back suplex.

1244
01:05:23,486 --> 01:05:25,671
[Wade] Nice technique
there from LeRae, stopping

1245
01:05:25,705 --> 01:05:29,408
the Role Model in her tracks.

1246

1247
01:05:30,893 --> 01:05:34,330
[Corey] And the Poison Pixie
eats the top turnbuckle.

1248
01:05:34,363 --> 01:05:36,666
[Wade] This has been a huge
prove-it opportunity

1249
01:05:36,699 --> 01:05:38,801
for Candice LeRae.

1250
01:05:38,834 --> 01:05:41,520
[Corey] Sunset flip spine-first
into the turnbuckle.

1251
01:05:41,554 --> 01:05:43,339
Bayley scrambling for a cover.

1252
01:05:43,372 --> 01:05:45,708
One, two.

1253
01:05:45,741 --> 01:05:49,679
[Corey] And Nia Jax making
her presence known.

1254
01:05:49,712 --> 01:05:51,564
Big kick by Naomi.

1255
01:05:51,597 --> 01:05:53,416
[Wade] Naomi bouncing back and cleaning

1256
01:05:53,449 --> 01:05:57,670

and Queen of the Ring Nia Jax

1257
01:05:57,703 --> 01:05:58,671

1258
01:06:01,657 --> 01:06:07,013
[Corey] Bayley right now is
feeling it, as is Naomi.

1259
01:06:07,046 --> 01:06:09,715
Naomi takes down Jax on the outside.

1260
01:06:09,749 --> 01:06:11,550
[Wade] High risk, and it paid off,

1261
01:06:11,584 --> 01:06:14,186
but it backfired now on Bayley.

1262
01:06:14,220 --> 01:06:16,722
Indi Hartwell on the outside geeing

1263
01:06:16,756 --> 01:06:19,909
up her mentor, Candice LeRae.

1264
01:06:19,942 --> 01:06:24,113
Can Candice LeRae score
a shocking victory here?

1265
01:06:24,146 --> 01:06:27,283
[Corey] LeRae going for broke,
and Bayley one step ahead.

1266
01:06:30,136 --> 01:06:32,705
LeRae tossed unceremoniously
back into the ring,

1267
01:06:32,738 --> 01:06:34,907
but watch Indi Hartwell.

1268
01:06:34,940 --> 01:06:38,861
Indi Hartwell just shoved
Bayley into the ring post.

1269
01:06:38,894 --> 01:06:42,114
[Wade] Pays to have good friends
at ringside when you're up

1271

[Corey] Wade, I don't know if there's
anybody in this arena as shocked

1279
01:07:07,039 --> 01:07:09,709
as Candice's own partner, Nia Jax.

1280
01:07:09,742 --> 01:07:13,629
[Wade] That was incredible,
one of the most incongruous

1281
01:07:13,662 --> 01:07:18,501
duos we have ever seen tagging
together here on SmackDown.

1282
01:07:18,534 --> 01:07:21,253
And it seems Nia Jax is
angry that she didn't

1283
01:07:21,287 --> 01:07:22,738
get the victory herself.

1284
01:07:22,772 --> 01:07:24,907
But still, it's a big W.

1285
01:07:24,940 --> 01:07:29,545
Congrats to Candice LeRae for
stepping up when it really counted.

1286

that Roman would acknowledge

1290

1294

acknowledges Solo tonight?

1296

We are headed over
to Brooklyn next Friday.

And you heard from Cody Rhodes
earlier tonight.

1299

He challenged Gunther to meet him
in the ring at SmackDown.

Well, it is happening.

1305

two incredible triple threat
tag-team match qualifiers.

1306
01:08:14,039 --> 01:08:17,660
The winners of both will
meet next Friday in Brooklyn.

The Motor City Machine Guns,
in their second-ever match

1308

on SmackDown, battle DIY
for a shot at the champions.

1309

And these two bitterest of enemies,

1311

they get a deciding Game 7 next week.

1312

been escorted from the building

And that's next week
on SmackDown from Brooklyn.

1323
01:09:04,006 --> 01:09:06,392
But the thing is because this
is such a personal issue,

1324
01:09:06,425 --> 01:09:08,911
and because this is Game 7, I decided

1325
01:09:08,944 --> 01:09:11,664
we needed a special referee
who could handle business,

1326
01:09:11,697 --> 01:09:13,716
a referee who, quite frankly,

1327
01:09:13,749 --> 01:09:15,100
hates both of these men equally.

1328
01:09:15,134 --> 01:09:16,652
That's the funny thing about this

1329
01:09:16,685 --> 01:09:18,587
because I have no reason
to be involved in this,

1330
01:09:18,621 --> 01:09:19,588
if you're quite honest.

1331

I've beaten both of them twice.

1332
01:09:21,073 --> 01:09:22,157

01:14:09,595 --> 01:14:11,013
Earlier tonight…

1386
01:14:14,967 --> 01:14:17,236
I heard that you told Jey…

1387
01:14:20,789 --> 01:14:22,624
that our family is stronger now.

1388
01:14:27,029 --> 01:14:28,764
You told Jey

1389
01:14:30,549 --> 01:14:34,903
that our Bloodline was stronger now.

1390
01:14:36,555 --> 01:14:39,041
[crowd boos]

1391
01:14:45,948 --> 01:14:47,015
I don't see it.

1392
01:14:49,785 --> 01:14:55,240
I don't see anything that
tells me we're better off now.

1393
01:14:56,275 --> 01:15:01,079
If anything, we're divided and broken.

1394
01:15:02,781 --> 01:15:04,983
After everything we've been through,

1395
01:15:05,017 --> 01:15:08,170
everything we went through
in the spring,

1396
01:15:08,203 --> 01:15:12,724
everything that we lost
through the summer,

1397
01:15:13,942 --> 01:15:16,128
and we stand here divided like this?

1398
01:15:20,065 --> 01:15:21,266
Solo…

1399
01:15:24,036 --> 01:15:30,959
I told my father… that I could fix this.

1400
01:15:36,515 --> 01:15:43,505
All I want to do is put us
back in the promised land.

1401
01:15:45,107 --> 01:15:47,859
I want titles around our waists.

1402
01:15:47,893 --> 01:15:51,029
I want paydays coming from the heavens.

1403
01:15:51,063 --> 01:15:52,631
I want abundance.

1404
01:15:52,664 --> 01:15:54,600
I want our family to be priority.

1405
01:15:54,633 --> 01:15:57,336
Tell me what I have to do to fix this.

1406
01:16:05,494 --> 01:16:07,179
What you have to do?

1407
01:16:08,280 --> 01:16:11,250
That's a easy fix, Roman.

1408
01:16:11,283 --> 01:16:12,784
What do you have to do to fix this?

1409
01:16:12,818 --> 01:16:13,769
I'll tell you what.

1410
01:16:13,802 --> 01:16:20,776
All you have to do is acknowledge me.

1411
01:16:21,810 --> 01:16:24,696
[crowd boos]

1412
01:16:30,969 --> 01:16:33,388
[crowd chanting "OTC"]

1413
01:16:59,715 --> 01:17:01,617
I acknowledge you.

1414
01:17:03,268 --> 01:17:05,153
There.

1415
01:17:05,187 --> 01:17:06,571
I acknowledge you.

1416
01:17:09,174 --> 01:17:10,976
Does that make you feel better?

1417
01:17:11,009 --> 01:17:14,062
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

1418
01:17:14,096 --> 01:17:18,200
Roman, that's not good enough.

1419
01:17:22,854 --> 01:17:29,761
I need you to acknowledge me
as your Tribal Chief.

1420
01:17:30,762 --> 01:17:33,632
[crowd boos]

1421
01:17:44,493 --> 01:17:46,962
[crowd chanting "no"]

1422
01:17:56,171 --> 01:18:01,326
I need you to acknowledge me
as your Tribal Chief…

1423
01:18:02,911 --> 01:18:03,845
or else.

1424
01:18:09,351 --> 01:18:11,336
Or else what?

1425
01:18:11,370 --> 01:18:14,056
[crowd cheers]

1426
01:18:15,440 --> 01:18:16,958
[laughs] Look.

1427
01:18:16,992 --> 01:18:18,660
Look at you. There he is.

1428
01:18:18,693 --> 01:18:19,745
I knew it.

1429
01:18:19,778 --> 01:18:21,797
You never changed.

1430
01:18:21,830 --> 01:18:23,198
You never changed.

1431
01:18:23,231 --> 01:18:25,500
You've always wanted this, huh?

1432
01:18:25,534 --> 01:18:29,688
Since you never changed,
I'll never change either.

1433
01:18:37,996 --> 01:18:40,465
[crowd boos]

1434
01:18:41,950 --> 01:18:45,020
[Corey] With a snap of his fingers, Solo--

1435
01:18:45,053 --> 01:18:46,438
[Wade] Oh, oh, wait.

1436
01:18:46,471 --> 01:18:48,173
[Corey] Oh my god, that's Jimmy Uso.

1437
01:18:53,812 --> 01:18:55,430
[Tonga] There he is.

1438
01:18:55,464 --> 01:18:56,681
There he is.

1439
01:18:57,833 --> 01:19:00,435
Look at his face, huh?

1440
01:19:00,469 --> 01:19:01,903
Look at his face.

1441
01:19:02,838 --> 01:19:06,374
[Corey] Solo tried to take out Roman,
but here comes Reigns.

1442
01:19:10,545 --> 01:19:12,431
[Wade] Jimmy Uso looks
like he's been thrown

1443
01:19:12,464 --> 01:19:14,132
out of a moving vehicle.

1444
01:19:14,166 --> 01:19:17,619
Roman Reigns now has to fight
off this mob on his own.

1445
01:19:17,652 --> 01:19:19,704
[Corey] Here comes Jacob Fatu.

1446
01:19:19,738 --> 01:19:23,208
Big clothesline by the OTC.

1447
01:19:24,910 --> 01:19:28,230
Superman Punch takes down Solo.

1448
01:19:28,263 --> 01:19:30,682
[Wade] The most devastating superstar

1449
01:19:30,715 --> 01:19:35,720
in our industry holding his own
against a bunch of savages.

1450
01:19:35,754 --> 01:19:36,922
Whoa.

1451
01:19:36,955 --> 01:19:38,573
[Corey] The ulafala.

1452
01:19:40,308 --> 01:19:44,429
[Wade] The ultimate symbol
of power in The Bloodline.

1453
01:19:44,463 --> 01:19:46,882
[crowd cheers]

1454
01:20:01,830 --> 01:20:04,432
[Corey] Solo from behind.

1455
01:20:05,834 --> 01:20:10,505
[Wade] The Bloodline fight
by their own set of rules.

1456
01:20:10,539 --> 01:20:13,175
A low blow to Roman Reigns,

1457
01:20:13,208 --> 01:20:17,179
and now The Bloodline hounds
are attacking.

1458
01:20:17,212 --> 01:20:21,149
[Corey] Tonight, the hyenas
feast on Roman Reigns.

1459
01:20:22,634 --> 01:20:26,571
[Wade] And there is simply nobody to help

1460
01:20:26,605 --> 01:20:29,357
the now former Tribal Chief.

1461
01:20:30,308 --> 01:20:32,244
[shouting indistinctly]

1462
01:20:33,562 --> 01:20:34,563
You hear me?

1463
01:20:34,596 --> 01:20:36,314
You ain't the OTC!

1464
01:20:36,348 --> 01:20:38,066
This is my Bloodline.

1465
01:20:38,099 --> 01:20:40,218
This is my Bloodline, baby!

1466
01:20:41,102 --> 01:20:42,337
Yeah!

1467
01:20:46,124 --> 01:20:48,693
[Corey] For the second week in a row,

1468
01:20:48,727 --> 01:20:52,864
Roman Reigns has attempted
to stand against his Bloodline

1469
01:20:52,898 --> 01:20:57,252
and, as a result, has been sacrificed…

1470
01:20:57,285 --> 01:20:58,703
Look at me! Look at me!

1471
01:20:58,753 --> 01:21:01,072
…at the altar of Solo.

1472
01:21:02,190 --> 01:21:04,426
[yells]

1473
01:21:05,911 --> 01:21:08,780
[choking, gagging]

1474
01:21:10,098 --> 01:21:11,733
OTC what?

1475
01:21:11,766 --> 01:21:13,101
This is our Tribal Chief.

1476
01:21:13,134 --> 01:21:14,386
This is the chief.

1477
01:21:14,419 --> 01:21:15,754
[crowd booing]

1478
01:21:15,787 --> 01:21:17,272
I'm the chief.

1479
01:21:18,340 --> 01:21:19,307
Look at that.

1480
01:21:19,341 --> 01:21:21,243
[shouts indistinctly]

1481
01:21:21,276 --> 01:21:23,678
[Wade] Roman Reigns looks like a man

1482
01:21:23,712 --> 01:21:25,564
out of answers and perhaps…

1483
01:21:25,597 --> 01:21:26,715
[yells]

1484
01:21:26,748 --> 01:21:28,934
[Corey] Another spike by Solo.

1485
01:21:28,967 --> 01:21:30,635
[Wade] …out of hope.

1486
01:21:30,669 --> 01:21:32,771
[yells]

1487
01:21:33,471 --> 01:21:35,590
[crowd boos]

1488
01:21:35,624 --> 01:21:39,678
[Corey] Stand against The Bloodline
at your own peril,

1489
01:21:39,711 --> 01:21:42,964
even if you are the OTC.

1490
01:21:42,998 --> 01:21:44,799
[crowd chanting "Solo sucks"]

1491
01:21:53,892 --> 01:21:55,627
This is my ring now.

1492
01:21:55,660 --> 01:21:57,846
This is my ulafala.

1493
01:21:57,879 --> 01:21:59,614
I'm the Tribal Chief.

1494
01:21:59,648 --> 01:22:01,583
This is my Bloodline.

1495
01:22:01,616 --> 01:22:03,585
These people acknowledge me.

1496
01:22:09,708 --> 01:22:10,725
I'm the real OTC.

1497
01:22:10,759 --> 01:22:12,193
Stand up. Stand up.

1498
01:22:13,428 --> 01:22:16,448
[crowd booing]

1499
01:22:16,481 --> 01:22:18,984
[Roman Reigns groaning in agony]

at your own peril,
