[Triple H] Then.

00:00:13,330 --> 00:00:14,463
Now.

3
00:00:19,386 --> 00:00:20,521
Forever.

4
00:00:28,744 --> 00:00:29,813
Together.

5
00:00:37,704 --> 00:00:42,608
[Tessitore] The road to WrestleMania
has taken an exciting international detour

6
00:00:42,643 --> 00:00:47,080
to Barcelona, Spain,
known for its spectacular culinary scene,

7
00:00:47,114 --> 00:00:52,602
dynamic, expressive architecture,
and just like the current WWE universe,

8
00:00:52,635 --> 00:00:55,205
this is a city brimming with excitement.

9
00:00:55,239 --> 00:00:58,474
It's where the where the Mediterranean Sea
meets old-world charm,

10
00:00:58,509 --> 00:01:01,945
and now it's where
for the first time ever,

11
00:01:01,979 --> 00:01:05,015
Spain hosts Friday Night SmackDown.

12
00:01:06,366 --> 00:01:10,369
We're at the 34-year-old
Pavelló Olímpic de Badalona.

13
00:01:10,404 --> 00:01:11,788
Look at this scene here.

14
00:01:11,822 --> 00:01:15,509
It's where Jordan and Magic
and Bird took gold, and tonight,

15
00:01:15,542 --> 00:01:18,244
gold could change hands in the ring.

16
00:01:18,277 --> 00:01:20,314
They are rocking in Barcelona.

17
00:01:20,898 --> 00:01:24,985
And in the spotlight
is the American nightmare.

18
00:01:25,018 --> 00:01:30,824
Cody Rhodes arriving at Barcelona with
so much to unpack regarding John Cena.

19
00:01:30,857 --> 00:01:36,563
Tonight we will hear from Cody
as he's the special guest on Miz TV.

20
00:01:36,597 --> 00:01:38,515
And from one Champ to another,

21
00:01:38,548 --> 00:01:41,667
the World Heavyweight Champion,
Gunther, has come to Barcelona.

22
00:01:41,702 --> 00:01:45,104
What's next for the ring general
on his way to mega Mania match

23
00:01:45,137 --> 00:01:46,589
with Jey Uso.

24
00:01:46,622 --> 00:01:51,545
Plus Carmelo Hayes
has a massive challenge ahead of him.

25
00:01:51,577 --> 00:01:54,714
Melo's been tangling
with those at the top.

26
00:01:54,747 --> 00:02:00,103
Now he faces one of the best of all time.
The Viper is here in Spain.

27
00:02:00,137 --> 00:02:03,640
His first match back in a while,
Randy Orton returns

28
00:02:03,673 --> 00:02:04,908
to official ring action

29
00:02:04,942 --> 00:02:06,943
after months on the shelf injured.

30
00:02:08,377 --> 00:02:10,847
And we have
a World Championship to decide.

31
00:02:10,881 --> 00:02:15,435
The Street Profits have disrupted
the Tag Team division yet again.

32
00:02:15,469 --> 00:02:20,107
Now they're focused on one thing,
being on top, but DIY is looking for that

33
00:02:20,140 --> 00:02:23,043
moment of silence, as they like to say.

34
00:02:23,076 --> 00:02:27,164
The Champ's set to show a title reign
in Spain.

35
00:02:28,465 --> 00:02:31,150
And The Wiseman's in Barcelona.

36
00:02:31,185 --> 00:02:34,738
Paul Heyman arrives after
a wild Monday Night Raw in New York,

37
00:02:34,771 --> 00:02:37,307
a stunning end
to that steel-cage thriller.

38
00:02:37,340 --> 00:02:40,327
What will Paul Heyman have to say
about Roman Reigns' return?

39
00:02:40,359 --> 00:02:44,164
We are intrigued
and we will find out later tonight.

40
00:02:50,269 --> 00:02:52,005

for the United States Champ.

51
00:03:37,451 --> 00:03:40,304

All hell breaking loose in the match,

56
00:03:50,814 --> 00:03:56,220
including a steel chair brought in there
that backfired badly on Shinsuke Nakamura

57
00:03:56,253 --> 00:03:59,055
with a BFT connecting to the steel.

58

Another rep sent to sprint down
from the gorilla position,

59
00:04:03,343 --> 00:04:05,828
and three seconds later

60
00:04:05,863 --> 00:04:11,984

as your United States Champion.

What a raucous atmosphere
here in Barcelona.

[Tessitore] It has been 6 years
since WWE's been in Spain.

about something right now.

It was way too long that I stood here
without this Championship,

but finally, by God,

00:08:26,590 --> 00:08:30,193

I'm out here to tell you I'm desperate.

00:09:34,024 --> 00:09:36,476
You see my road to WrestleMania
is running short, Uce.

115
00:09:37,394 --> 00:09:42,064
I get tired of these speed bumps popping
up, tired of the detours popping up,

116
00:09:42,098 --> 00:09:43,433
and I figured it out.

117
00:09:43,467 --> 00:09:47,804
The only way to start my road
to WrestleMania is to challenge you

We got company.

122
00:10:01,300 --> 00:10:04,054

the kind of family reunion

that Jimmy's looking for.

if there's anybody
that deserves a US title shot,

that man should definitely be Jacob Fatu.

You see, a couple of weeks ago
your ass stole the pin.

130
00:10:41,975 --> 00:10:45,362
That's why that title was not able
to come back to this family.

Oh, and big brother Jimmy, how you doing?
Good to see you.

Why don't you do me
and all of my family a favor?

was trust you as my little brother.

00:13:58,070 --> 00:13:59,656
[Barrett] I've got no surprise whatsoever.

172
00:13:59,689 --> 00:14:03,877
We know the kind of competitor
Jimmy Uso is, and we know the kind of--

173
00:14:03,911 --> 00:14:05,078
Oh! Spinning Solo!

174
00:14:05,112 --> 00:14:08,866
[Tessitore] Oh,
as his Spinning Solo Slam is delivered

175
00:14:08,899 --> 00:14:12,618
and you can see the impact it made
on Big Jim.

176
00:14:12,652 --> 00:14:16,089
[Barrett] And LA Knight better get used
to superstars coming straight after him

177
00:14:16,122 --> 00:14:19,977
now he's got the gold.
Solo Sikoa made it clear that he felt

178
00:14:20,010 --> 00:14:22,362
Jacob Fatu deserved an opportunity,

179
00:14:22,396 --> 00:14:26,500
which again another act of diplomacy
from Solo, who has managed

180
00:14:26,533 --> 00:14:32,305
to get that trio back on track
after weeks of animosity between them.

181
00:14:35,007 --> 00:14:37,961
Now this is
where they're at their most lethal.

182
00:14:37,995 --> 00:14:39,579
Distraction to the referee,

183
00:14:39,613 --> 00:14:42,281
cheap shots left, right and center.

184
00:14:42,315 --> 00:14:45,452
And now Jimmy Uso getting pummeled.

185
00:14:45,485 --> 00:14:49,805
[Tessitore] And look at the reaction
by the Samoan Werewolf, Jacob Fatu.

186
00:14:54,511 --> 00:14:58,232
Tama Tonga comes flying over that top
rope right on to Jimmy Uso.

187
00:15:01,235 --> 00:15:03,120
[Barrett] Cackling like a hyena,

188
00:15:03,670 --> 00:15:07,440
incredibly happy
with his work thus far, isolated.

189
00:15:07,473 --> 00:15:10,978
Big Jim.
And now putting the wood to the mat.

190
00:15:14,314 --> 00:15:17,851
Solo Sikoa, who came out to interrupt
Jimmy and LA Knight,

191
00:15:17,885 --> 00:15:21,954
and if anybody deserves a title shot
at the US Championship,

192
00:15:21,988 --> 00:15:23,824
it should be Jacob Fatu.

193
00:15:26,610 --> 00:15:29,413
Oh, that running Hip Attack
was something extra.

194
00:15:30,897 --> 00:15:33,116
[Barrett]
Jimmy Uso knows all about that move,

195
00:15:33,150 --> 00:15:35,319
a move he's perfected himself,

196
00:15:35,886 --> 00:15:39,973
however, being on the receiving end,
a very different proposition.

197
00:15:41,474 --> 00:15:43,776
[Tessitore]
And remember the verbal assault

198
00:15:43,810 --> 00:15:45,712
as well weighed as Solo saying

199
00:15:45,746 --> 00:15:48,515
Jimmy's always been
the failure of the family,

200
00:15:48,549 --> 00:15:50,449
and it's time that he realizes it.

201
00:15:50,483 --> 00:15:53,286
[Barrett] Well, it's become
an automatic cheap shot in the locker room

202
00:15:53,319 --> 00:15:57,056
to unfavorably compare
Jimmy Uso to his brother

203
00:15:57,089 --> 00:15:59,943
after the past 12 months that Jey has had.

204
00:15:59,977 --> 00:16:04,348
Highly unfair, and Jimmy Uso,
every bit the equal of Jey,

205
00:16:04,381 --> 00:16:08,651
hasn't quite had the same opportunities
of late, but that might change.

206
00:16:09,386 --> 00:16:10,804
In short order.

207
00:16:10,837 --> 00:16:13,290
[Tessitore] Speaking of Jey Uso,
remember we saw Gunther earlier tonight

208
00:16:13,323 --> 00:16:15,375
making his way into this Olympic arena.

209
00:16:15,409 --> 00:16:19,780
We will hear from him a little later on,
of course, the WrestleMania 41 opponent,

210
00:16:19,813 --> 00:16:23,150
the Royal Rumble winner, Jey Uso,

211
00:16:23,183 --> 00:16:28,005
as Jimmy trying to get to his feet,
desperate for help, and he finds it

212
00:16:28,038 --> 00:16:30,223
in the form of the megastar.

213
00:16:38,031 --> 00:16:40,800
Fatu looks to respond,
just throwing him into that corner.

214
00:16:40,834 --> 00:16:43,954
LA Knight able to get out of the way,
and deliver.

215
00:16:44,938 --> 00:16:47,841
A Jumping Neckbreaker from LA Knight.

216
00:16:47,875 --> 00:16:50,894
[Barrett]
The international language of Kavorka

217
00:16:52,045 --> 00:16:54,765
spread wide here in Barcelona.

218
00:16:54,798 --> 00:16:56,500
[Tessitore] Able to get away
from the Samoan drop.

219
00:16:56,532 --> 00:16:59,069
Oh, and he delivers big time with the DDT.

220
00:17:01,505 --> 00:17:05,725
Fatu just sends him, throws him across
and the Superkick delivered as well.

221
00:17:05,759 --> 00:17:07,677
[shouts]

222
00:17:07,711 --> 00:17:10,513
[both shouting]

223
00:17:12,515 --> 00:17:15,868
[Barrett] Pain just does not register
on Jacob Fatu

224
00:17:15,903 --> 00:17:18,405
the same way it does with everyone else.

225
00:17:18,437 --> 00:17:22,326
This man is
almost impervious to punishment,

226
00:17:22,358 --> 00:17:24,560
but that was a game-changing moment.

227
00:17:25,294 --> 00:17:27,364
[crowd] LA Knight!

228
00:17:27,396 --> 00:17:28,749
[crowd, Barrett] Yeah!

229
00:17:29,616 --> 00:17:31,101
[Tessitore] Jumping Reaping Elbow.

230
00:17:37,774 --> 00:17:40,043
[Barrett] Now, a rare sight, Jacob Fatu.

231
00:17:40,077 --> 00:17:41,678
[Tessitore] No BFT deliver there.

232
00:17:43,213 --> 00:17:47,533
Charles Robinson distracted.
Meanwhile, Fatu.

233
00:17:52,322 --> 00:17:55,542
Short break for Barcelona.
More great tag action to come.

234
00:17:59,346 --> 00:18:00,630
[Tessitore] The road to WrestleMania

235
00:18:00,664 --> 00:18:03,000
has taken us
to Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.

236
00:18:03,033 --> 00:18:07,486
Joe Tessitore and Wade Barrett
with you ringside, Six-Man Tag Team Match.

237
00:18:07,521 --> 00:18:12,275
LA Knight, Jimmy Uso, Braun Strowman,
and that man Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga

238
00:18:12,309 --> 00:18:13,860
and Jacob Fatu.

239
00:18:17,447 --> 00:18:20,450
LA Knight gets out of the way
at the very last second.

240
00:18:20,484 --> 00:18:25,956
[Barrett] Well, this Barcelona audience
being incredibly unkind to Solo Sikoa

241
00:18:25,989 --> 00:18:28,341
momentarily took his attention.

242
00:18:28,375 --> 00:18:30,194
That was all the megastar needed.

243
00:18:31,628 --> 00:18:33,230
[Tessitore] He returns that price.

244
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,317
[Barrett] Well, megastar desperate
for this chance to make the tag.

245
00:18:37,834 --> 00:18:41,905
He's not a tag competitor by nature,
but he needs out of that ring

246
00:18:41,938 --> 00:18:43,257
in the worst way.

247
00:18:43,790 --> 00:18:50,781
There's a fresh… Jimmy Uso
and a fresh Braun Strowman denied.

248
00:18:50,813 --> 00:18:53,716
[Tessitore] Tama Tonga drags him back,

249
00:18:53,750 --> 00:18:58,488
but here comes The Monster,
Braun Strowman.

250
00:18:59,556 --> 00:19:04,695
[Barrett] An enraged monster
whose life has been made hell by this trio

251
00:19:04,727 --> 00:19:06,480
over the past couple of months.

252
00:19:06,513 --> 00:19:08,115
[Tessitore] Just clearing them all out.

253
00:19:12,636 --> 00:19:18,692
Oh, and he wants it and he wants
to deliver a Strowman Express.

254
00:19:18,725 --> 00:19:20,427
[Barrett]
It's like the running of the bulls

255
00:19:20,460 --> 00:19:22,846
but much, much more dangerous.

256
00:19:27,351 --> 00:19:32,789
[Tessitore] Like bowling pins
just crashing down. Taking them all out.

257
00:19:38,611 --> 00:19:42,832
To the roar of this massive crowd,
and here comes LA Knight

258
00:19:42,866 --> 00:19:44,234
on the other side.

259
00:19:44,268 --> 00:19:45,936
[Barrett] There, good luck, referee.

260
00:19:46,803 --> 00:19:48,054
This one's coming unglued!

261
00:19:48,088 --> 00:19:53,744
[Tessitore] Oh, Big Jim through the air!
The Werewolf is over the announce desk.

262
00:19:57,181 --> 00:19:59,533
Wow, what an attack by Strowman.

263
00:20:02,668 --> 00:20:07,541
He's got Tama Tonga, running Powerslam.

264
00:20:07,573 --> 00:20:10,226
The whole ring shakes.

265
00:20:10,260 --> 00:20:12,262
[bell dings]

266
00:20:13,996 --> 00:20:16,015
[Garcia] Here are your winners.

267
00:20:16,049 --> 00:20:19,919
Braun Strowman, Jimmy Uso and--

268
00:20:19,953 --> 00:20:21,370
[Tessitore, Barrett groan]

269
00:20:22,155 --> 00:20:24,957
[Tessitore] Solo Sikoa on the attack

270
00:20:25,943 --> 00:20:28,227
as LA drags him out of there.

271
00:20:28,262 --> 00:20:30,964
[Barrett] Well, do not drop your guard
for a second

272
00:20:30,998 --> 00:20:32,950
around this trio of thugs.

273
00:20:34,033 --> 00:20:37,337
LA Knight
doing his best to control things.

274
00:20:38,171 --> 00:20:39,956
Heading out into this audience.

275
00:20:40,607 --> 00:20:43,476
A sneak-attack Samoan Spike
and, oh, my God--

276
00:20:43,510 --> 00:20:46,196
[Tessitore]
Jacob Fatu is somehow on his feet.

277
00:20:46,230 --> 00:20:47,731
[Barrett] Yeah, of-- [groans]

278
00:20:47,764 --> 00:20:50,934
Of course he is,
we should be used to that by now, Joe.

279
00:20:50,967 --> 00:20:54,004
[Tessitore] Oh, and remember
what happened a week ago,

280
00:20:54,037 --> 00:20:56,756
and now more between these two big men.

281
00:20:57,357 --> 00:20:59,860
[Barrett]
Well, the dogs are off the chain.

282
00:21:00,844 --> 00:21:06,483
All gas, no breaks and no respite
whatsoever for Braun Strowman.

283
00:21:07,967 --> 00:21:09,870
[Tessitore] Mighty moonsault lands!

284
00:21:14,691 --> 00:21:16,043
Jacob Fatu.

285
00:21:18,195 --> 00:21:23,367
With more and more reason
to get after Braun Strowman and deliver.

286
00:21:23,399 --> 00:21:26,520
[Barrett] Look at those eyes, a cold,

287
00:21:26,553 --> 00:21:29,039
violent warmonger.

288
00:21:29,072 --> 00:21:31,091
[Tessitore] That jump-up moonsault

289
00:21:31,124 --> 00:21:36,396
with 285 explosive pounds crashing down.

290
00:21:36,429 --> 00:21:37,748
He's not going up again.

291
00:21:39,933 --> 00:21:45,389
[Barrett] Jacob Fatu completely
incapable of self-restraint.

292
00:21:45,422 --> 00:21:48,992
The problem is we don't have
the personnel here to stop it.

293
00:21:49,025 --> 00:21:54,982
[Tessitore] This is outrageous.
Fatu again attacking Strowman.

294
00:21:57,234 --> 00:22:01,538
[Barrett] Fatu just makes up his own laws.
We have to obey them.

295
00:22:01,572 --> 00:22:07,261
[Tessitore] It has been a constant
this year. Fatu and Strowman.

296
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,186
As Tama Tonga's walking him back and…

297
00:22:16,220 --> 00:22:18,437
Oh, no, he doesn't…
He's not eyeing more here.

298
00:22:20,090 --> 00:22:24,410
[Barrett] Well, Tama Tonga has just left
Jacob Fatu to his own devices.

299
00:22:24,444 --> 00:22:27,447
[Tessitore] That's not a good thing.
He's running full speed.

300
00:22:27,481 --> 00:22:34,004
Here he comes, the Samoan Werewolf.
Oh, my. Clear the deck.

301
00:22:46,950 --> 00:22:52,822
The Samoan Werewolf.
Message sent to The Monster.

302
00:22:55,576 --> 00:22:58,695
Strowman came up with
the win for his team,

303
00:22:59,612 --> 00:23:03,766
but Fatu became
a human wrecking ball afterwards.

304
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:08,906
[Barrett] About as hollow a victory
as Braun Strowman has ever achieved.

305
00:23:08,938 --> 00:23:11,408
Utterly terrifying from Fatu.

306
00:23:11,942 --> 00:23:15,379
[Tessitore] Incredible start to SmackDown
and still ahead tonight…

307
00:23:15,412 --> 00:23:19,850
A week ago, B-Fab and Charlotte Flair
found themselves face-to-face backstage

308
00:23:19,883 --> 00:23:20,884
in a heated moment.

309
00:23:20,918 --> 00:23:24,120
Now they're gonna be
opposite each other in the ring.

310
00:23:26,639 --> 00:23:30,694
And we know for a fact that it was Naomi
who originally attacked Jade Cargill.

311
00:23:30,726 --> 00:23:34,531
We'll get more answers after the
emotional fallout between Bianca Belair,

312
00:23:34,564 --> 00:23:36,450
her former tag partner Naomi

313
00:23:36,483 --> 00:23:40,220
and Jade as Cargill sits down
with our Cathy Kelley,

314
00:23:40,787 --> 00:23:44,291
that is coming up
from right here in Barcelona.

315
00:23:51,465 --> 00:23:53,951
[Tessitore] What used to be a dream
team, women's tag team and friendship

316
00:23:53,984 --> 00:23:55,369
is now dealing with issues.

317
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,109
[Belair] You know,
I should really feel like

318
00:24:02,141 --> 00:24:04,343
I'm on top of the world right now

319
00:24:04,378 --> 00:24:06,280
after winning Elimination Chamber.

320
00:24:06,879 --> 00:24:10,516
[Cole] Bianca Belair
is going to WrestleMania!

321
00:24:10,551 --> 00:24:14,254
But it's really hard to do that
when two of your friends are fighting.

322
00:24:15,054 --> 00:24:16,689
[Cole] Jade Cargill is back!

323
00:24:18,591 --> 00:24:21,345
Wait a minute. Jade has attacked Naomi.

324
00:24:21,378 --> 00:24:22,379
What are you doing?

325
00:24:22,412 --> 00:24:24,764
[Cole] Does she believe
it was Naomi who attacked her

326
00:24:24,798 --> 00:24:26,332
a number of months ago?

327
00:24:26,366 --> 00:24:27,684
[screams]

328
00:24:29,503 --> 00:24:32,639
Naomi, I know you're back there
and I need you to come out here

329
00:24:32,673 --> 00:24:34,875
and give me some answers right now.

330
00:24:35,676 --> 00:24:38,611
Did you attack Jade?

331
00:24:39,663 --> 00:24:44,967
B, you and I really need to be focused
on getting our tag team titles back

332
00:24:45,002 --> 00:24:47,920
and you focusing on WrestleMania.

333
00:24:47,955 --> 00:24:51,041
Naomi, stop. It is about Jade right now.

334
00:24:51,073 --> 00:24:52,075
Jade.

335
00:24:52,726 --> 00:24:54,645
Jade, Jade, Jade.

336
00:24:55,178 --> 00:25:00,200
I have been forced to watch Jade succeed
off of your excellence,

337
00:25:00,234 --> 00:25:02,735
your experience, your hard work.

338
00:25:02,769 --> 00:25:05,806
While I was left pushed to the side.

339
00:25:05,839 --> 00:25:08,140
-Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop.
-She's an opportunist.

340
00:25:08,175 --> 00:25:09,626
Naomi, stop.

341
00:25:09,659 --> 00:25:11,078
B, you asked for the truth.

342
00:25:11,110 --> 00:25:12,579
I feel like your gaslighting me.

343
00:25:12,612 --> 00:25:14,915
Every time I stand up for myself…

344
00:25:14,947 --> 00:25:16,884
-Tell me the truth. Tell me.
-…people turn their back

345
00:25:16,917 --> 00:25:17,918
and walk out on me--

346
00:25:17,951 --> 00:25:19,520
Please stop!

347
00:25:19,553 --> 00:25:20,687
Stop.

348
00:25:22,723 --> 00:25:26,260
It is a yes or it is a no.

349
00:25:28,445 --> 00:25:30,880
Did you attack Jade?

350
00:25:35,869 --> 00:25:36,870
I did it.

351
00:25:42,793 --> 00:25:43,894
I did it for you.

352
00:25:43,927 --> 00:25:44,945
No.

353
00:25:44,977 --> 00:25:46,746
I did it for us.

354
00:25:46,780 --> 00:25:49,448
No, no. Don't touch me!

355
00:25:50,317 --> 00:25:52,218
This? Me and you.

356
00:25:53,352 --> 00:25:54,404
We're done.

357
00:25:58,774 --> 00:26:01,160
Why? Because of her?

358
00:26:01,195 --> 00:26:04,898
B, I did this for you.
You just don't understand that right now.

359
00:26:04,932 --> 00:26:07,634
The truth is,
I wish I would have pushed her harder.

360
00:26:09,101 --> 00:26:14,975
I should have pushed her sooner. Don't
walk out on me, you ungrateful…

361
00:26:24,368 --> 00:26:26,019
[Cole] Jade Cargill is here.

362
00:26:26,986 --> 00:26:29,740
[Barrett] The Big Three is done for good.

363
00:26:41,001 --> 00:26:42,002
Get up!

364
00:26:43,419 --> 00:26:44,705
Bianca!

365
00:26:58,769 --> 00:27:01,487
[Kelley] Jade Cargill, thank you so much
for granting this interview.

366
00:27:01,522 --> 00:27:05,274
Your first since
nearly career-ending attack

367
00:27:05,309 --> 00:27:08,712
at the hands of
your former friend and ally, Naomi.

368
00:27:08,745 --> 00:27:11,648
How have these last couple of months been
and where are you at

369
00:27:11,682 --> 00:27:13,516
both physically and emotionally?

370
00:27:13,550 --> 00:27:17,771
Physically, Cathy.
I'm okay. I'm ready to go.

371
00:27:20,591 --> 00:27:25,646
After Elimination Chamber and SmackDown,
seeing Naomi cry about all her struggles

372
00:27:25,678 --> 00:27:27,231
as if she's the victim.

373
00:27:29,332 --> 00:27:30,333
How pathetic.

374
00:27:31,385 --> 00:27:35,172
Thinking that I needed to use anyone
to get to where I'm going

375
00:27:35,205 --> 00:27:36,974
as if I needed a handout.

376
00:27:37,791 --> 00:27:40,194
Naomi thought she can dictate
what I deserve.

377
00:27:41,544 --> 00:27:43,563
I mean, how's that working out
for her right now?

378
00:27:44,697 --> 00:27:49,468
There's clearly a lot of emotions right
now. Not to harp on Naomi much longer,

379
00:27:49,503 --> 00:27:53,924
but everyone is wondering
how did you know that she was the attacker

380
00:27:53,956 --> 00:27:56,426
and was there a reason
that you didn't alert people here sooner?

381
00:28:02,499 --> 00:28:04,434
You know, Cathy, all I can recall,

382
00:28:05,319 --> 00:28:10,174
is being hit from the back
and being thrown on a car.

383
00:28:12,658 --> 00:28:17,281
And then as everything grew dark,
seeing Naomi just run away.

384
00:28:19,832 --> 00:28:23,303
I mean, that was my big sis.
That was our best friend.

385
00:28:24,053 --> 00:28:28,942
We were The Big Three.
She just didn't attack me physically.

386
00:28:30,377 --> 00:28:33,697
She attacked my integrity, she attacked
my loyalty, she attacked my heart.

387
00:28:35,264 --> 00:28:37,601
I mean, how can you
trust anyone after that?

388
00:28:39,870 --> 00:28:44,424
And then to see Bianca tag up with her
as if nothing ever happened.

389
00:28:46,443 --> 00:28:49,213
I knew right then I had
to take things into my own hands,

390
00:28:49,947 --> 00:28:51,631
but she did get one thing right.

391
00:28:51,665 --> 00:28:53,399
-She should have pushed me harder.
-[chattering]

392
00:28:54,117 --> 00:28:55,651
-Look at Chatty Cathy over there.
-Because--

393
00:28:55,686 --> 00:28:57,004
Someone remembered to use their voice.

394
00:28:57,037 --> 00:28:58,672
[Cathy]
We're trying to do an interview here.

395
00:28:58,705 --> 00:29:01,558
-I don't care, Cathy. I don't care.
-Not right now, Liv. Not right now.

396
00:29:01,591 --> 00:29:03,493
This is not the time.
This is not the time to do it.

397
00:29:03,526 --> 00:29:04,528
You've been silent for weeks.

398
00:29:04,561 --> 00:29:06,062
This is not the time to do it!

399
00:29:06,096 --> 00:29:07,714
Remember the time you get attacked

400
00:29:07,747 --> 00:29:10,900
because Raquel and I have been getting
blamed for weeks because of you.

401
00:29:10,934 --> 00:29:12,836
Not right now, and you better be thankful

402
00:29:12,870 --> 00:29:14,804
that you're even
holding those tag team titles

403
00:29:14,838 --> 00:29:16,189
because if I was in that match,

404
00:29:16,223 --> 00:29:18,324
I promise,
you would have never held that title.

405
00:29:18,358 --> 00:29:20,543
Oh yeah, is that what you think?
Is that what you think?

406
00:29:20,577 --> 00:29:22,929
-[Cargill] Yeah.
-That's hilarious. That's hilarious.

407
00:29:24,063 --> 00:29:25,549
Wow. Okay. You're a joke.

408
00:29:25,581 --> 00:29:30,637
Well, since I'm such a joke,
I don't need a title to take on that ass,

409
00:29:30,670 --> 00:29:32,789
and I'll be seeing you next week.

410
00:29:32,822 --> 00:29:35,108
Yeah, you wanna see me next week?
Okay. Cool, I'll see you next week.

411
00:29:35,141 --> 00:29:37,811
How about you just don't get pushed
onto any cars between now and then, okay?

412
00:29:37,845 --> 00:29:39,478
Okay. [laughs]

413
00:29:39,513 --> 00:29:40,514
-Loser, idiot.
-I know…

414
00:29:40,547 --> 00:29:41,665
-No.
-…you have a lot on your plate.

415
00:29:41,697 --> 00:29:44,083
-This isn't it. This isn't it.
-Just a couple more questions.

416
00:29:44,668 --> 00:29:45,802
[stammers]

417
00:29:48,639 --> 00:29:52,074
[speaking Spanish]

418
00:30:02,218 --> 00:30:05,988
…Charlotte, for your sake,
I hope you haven't slept on me

419
00:30:06,023 --> 00:30:08,992
'cause I know you've
accomplished a lot here in WWE,

420
00:30:09,025 --> 00:30:12,145
but like I told you,
I'm here to build my own legacy

421
00:30:12,178 --> 00:30:17,868
and if my legacy has to start with you,
that's perfect for me. You know why?

422
00:30:17,900 --> 00:30:23,790
Because that's just how it be.

["Count It Out" playing]

424
00:30:26,959 --> 00:30:31,398
[Tessitore] B-Fab is great. No-nonsense,
why-waste-time approach.

425
00:30:31,430 --> 00:30:34,551
Was defending the honor of the entire
women's division a week ago and now trying

426
00:30:34,584 --> 00:30:39,673
to take a major step forward in her own
career, and this could go far right here.

427
00:30:41,859 --> 00:30:42,860
[bell dings]

428
00:30:42,893 --> 00:30:46,295
[Garcia] The following content
is scheduled for one fall!

429
00:30:46,330 --> 00:30:50,516
Introducing first
from Hall of Fame City, Ohio,

430
00:30:50,551 --> 00:30:53,754
B-Fab!

431
00:30:53,786 --> 00:30:57,024
[Tessitore] So can this
strong confident version of B-Fab

432
00:30:57,057 --> 00:31:00,060
upset the 14-time Champion?

433
00:31:00,092 --> 00:31:01,445
We're gonna find out next.

434
00:31:01,477 --> 00:31:05,314
B-Fab and Charlotte Flair

So now I'm a savage ♪

438
00:31:17,194 --> 00:31:22,299
Last time we saw B-Fab in singles action,
a highly competitive match.

439
00:31:22,331 --> 00:31:24,650
One against her, the other way
against Piper Niven.

440
00:31:24,685 --> 00:31:27,353
That was on 8 January.
Did bounce back with a tag-team win,

441
00:31:27,387 --> 00:31:31,091
teamed up with Michin over Chelsea Green.
[continues indistinctly]

442
00:31:38,465 --> 00:31:42,485
Would you look at this scene here
at the Pavelló Olímpic de Badalona.

443
00:31:43,453 --> 00:31:47,440
And the way they will react
to seeing one of the all-time greats.

444
00:31:49,443 --> 00:31:54,264
There is no denying the women's roster
has been altered with the return

445
00:31:54,298 --> 00:31:57,868
and the Royal Rumble
victory by Charlotte Flair.

446
00:31:57,900 --> 00:31:59,352
["All Hail The Queen" playing]

447
00:32:03,573 --> 00:32:07,895
[Garcia] And her opponent
from The Queen City,

448
00:32:07,928 --> 00:32:11,113
Charlotte Flair!

449
00:32:17,721 --> 00:32:23,076
[Barrett] You said it, Joe, a woman
synonymous with Championship gold.

450
00:32:23,110 --> 00:32:24,895
A woman associated

451
00:32:24,928 --> 00:32:30,434
almost exclusively
with being at the very top of the card.

452
00:32:30,466 --> 00:32:37,456
She's won it all multiple times here
in WWE and she is firmly on the road

453
00:32:37,491 --> 00:32:38,841
to WrestleMania.

454
00:32:38,876 --> 00:32:44,430
She has a date with destiny
coming up in a few short weeks' time.

455
00:32:45,381 --> 00:32:51,522
Against the WWE Women's Champion
Tiffany Stratton, they go head to head

456
00:32:51,554 --> 00:32:55,074
at WrestleMania 41 by virtue of the fact

457
00:32:55,908 --> 00:32:58,896
that Charlotte Flair won the Royal Rumble.

458
00:32:58,928 --> 00:33:01,948
[Tessitore] It's incredible every time
she makes her way to the ring

459
00:33:01,982 --> 00:33:04,568
and we put up that résumé of hers.

460
00:33:04,601 --> 00:33:09,706
It looks like a jewelry store display
with all the gold and prize collections.

461
00:33:09,740 --> 00:33:11,491
6-time Raw Women's Champion,

462
00:33:11,524 --> 00:33:15,829
now the WWE Women's Championship,
as it's known, 7-time SmackDown Champion,

463
00:33:15,862 --> 00:33:20,833
14-time World Champion,
and of course most recently,

464
00:33:20,868 --> 00:33:27,658
the return and the victory in front of
76,000 Indianapolis at the Royal Rumble.

465
00:33:27,690 --> 00:33:29,943
[Barrett] Of course
everyone can have their opinion,

466
00:33:29,976 --> 00:33:32,178
everyone can have their favorites,

467
00:33:32,212 --> 00:33:36,015
and it's not all about statistics,
but statistics alone,

468
00:33:36,049 --> 00:33:41,338
if we just look at that, this woman,
Charlotte Flair is unequivocally

469
00:33:41,370 --> 00:33:44,725
the greatest of all time, make no mistake.

470
00:33:45,509 --> 00:33:48,812
And she's gonna have to reach that level
if she wants to grab gold

471
00:33:48,846 --> 00:33:51,298
once again at WrestleMania,

472
00:33:51,331 --> 00:33:56,035
but right now you've got your hands full
with a hungry B-Fab who has been

473
00:33:56,069 --> 00:33:58,738
demanding opportunities here on SmackDown.

474
00:33:58,772 --> 00:34:02,408
[Tessitore] And of course with the injury
that Charlotte recovered from, Wade,

475
00:34:02,442 --> 00:34:05,078
she was out of action for quite some time.

476
00:34:05,111 --> 00:34:09,199
So you got to go back
to December 8th of 2023,

477
00:34:09,232 --> 00:34:13,036
the last time she had singles action,
that was on SmackDown against Asuka.

478
00:34:13,069 --> 00:34:16,489
Injured a knee in that match.
Coming into Royal Rumble

479
00:34:16,522 --> 00:34:19,025
very different than singles action, Wade.

480
00:34:19,058 --> 00:34:22,362
When she won the Royal Rumble,
she entered at number 27.

481
00:34:22,395 --> 00:34:26,016
She went about 15 minutes and of course
won that, but it's a different beast

482
00:34:26,049 --> 00:34:27,868
when you come back to this.

483
00:34:27,900 --> 00:34:31,188
[Barrett]
You are right 99 times out of 100.

484
00:34:31,221 --> 00:34:34,074
However,
Charlotte Flair is made of platinum,

485
00:34:34,107 --> 00:34:36,659
does not suffer from ring rust.

486
00:34:36,692 --> 00:34:39,313
And B-Fab is about to learn that
the hard way.

487
00:34:39,346 --> 00:34:41,230
[Tessitore] And I will tell you,
for those of us

488
00:34:41,264 --> 00:34:43,283
that have had
the privilege of watching her,

489
00:34:43,317 --> 00:34:50,239
how hard Charlotte has worked in the gym
in her recovery, she is absolutely primed

490
00:34:50,274 --> 00:34:51,824
to be the best she's ever been.

491
00:34:52,375 --> 00:34:56,279
[Barrett] It's the only language
Charlotte Flair understands.

492
00:34:56,313 --> 00:35:01,201
She's constantly in competition
with one person, and that is herself.

493
00:35:01,235 --> 00:35:03,453
[Tessitore] Meanwhile, what do you make
of the attitude of B-Fab?

494
00:35:03,487 --> 00:35:06,373
I sort of like this sort of swing
for the fences way about her.

495
00:35:06,406 --> 00:35:08,525
Just determined
to make a name for herself,

496
00:35:08,558 --> 00:35:11,094
to take care of a situation
and go out there

497
00:35:11,127 --> 00:35:12,828
and face Charlotte Flair
in a slot like this.

498
00:35:12,863 --> 00:35:14,897
[Barrett] Well, we mentioned it,
Charlotte Flair's been AWOL

499
00:35:14,932 --> 00:35:18,035
for the best part of a year
with an injury, however,

500
00:35:18,067 --> 00:35:22,489
to come back and immediately start talking
trash about the entire locker room,

501
00:35:22,522 --> 00:35:29,429
somebody has to step up and I like the
fact that B-Fab had the moxie to do it.

502
00:35:30,096 --> 00:35:33,901
Huge disparity in résumés between the two
of them, but I'll tell you right now,

503
00:35:33,933 --> 00:35:37,837
growing up fighting
on the streets of Medellín, Colombia,

504
00:35:37,871 --> 00:35:39,857
B-Fab ain't backing down to anyone.

505
00:35:39,890 --> 00:35:42,159
[Tessitore] Able to get away
from that last chop attempt

506
00:35:42,192 --> 00:35:44,461
and deliver the kick is B-Fab.

507
00:35:47,647 --> 00:35:52,169
[Barrett] And clearly Charlotte Flair's
been incredibly dismissive of B-Fab,

508
00:35:52,803 --> 00:35:56,373
undoubtedly is gonna be
taking B-Fab lightly.

509
00:35:56,406 --> 00:35:58,158
[Tessitore] Into the cover, hooks the leg.

510
00:36:00,627 --> 00:36:04,765
B-Fab bringing some offense
to Charlotte Flair here in Spain.

511
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,457
[Tessitore] Charlotte Flair has been
bullying B-Fab

512
00:36:13,490 --> 00:36:15,942
for the past few minutes
here in the ring in Barcelona.

513
00:36:15,976 --> 00:36:20,881
The European tour is underway.
Friday Night SmackDown here in Barcelona.

514
00:36:20,913 --> 00:36:23,834
Monday Night Raw will be in Brussels.

515
00:36:24,401 --> 00:36:27,671
[Barrett] B-Fab has given
a hell of an account of herself thus far

516
00:36:27,703 --> 00:36:31,341
just hanging in there
this long with Charlotte,

517
00:36:31,375 --> 00:36:33,227
but that disparity in résumés

518
00:36:33,259 --> 00:36:34,995
is really starting to show here.

519
00:36:38,448 --> 00:36:41,902
[Tessitore] And again flipping her over
onto her back

520
00:36:41,935 --> 00:36:44,621
and now the kick up for Charlotte Flair.

521
00:36:45,272 --> 00:36:47,473
First time these two
have ever gone one on one.

522
00:36:47,508 --> 00:36:51,828
Of course they were both in the recent
Royal Rumble, but B-Fab was eliminated

523
00:36:51,862 --> 00:36:55,015
before Charlotte entered the match,
as we said at number 27

524
00:36:55,048 --> 00:36:57,834
and going on
to be victorious in that evening.

525
00:36:57,868 --> 00:37:01,872
[Barrett] You just see Charlotte is not
taking the threat of B-Fab seriously,

526
00:37:01,904 --> 00:37:03,589
incredibly aloof,

527
00:37:03,624 --> 00:37:07,944
toying with this audience
who are baying for Charlotte's blood.

528
00:37:07,978 --> 00:37:11,665
Oh, and that has opened
up a little window for B-Fab.

529
00:37:12,516 --> 00:37:15,285
[Tessitore] Charlotte was going
potentially for the Figure 8 leg lock,

530
00:37:15,319 --> 00:37:19,489
but instead that big kick
that just drove her into the corner.

531
00:37:19,522 --> 00:37:22,808
[Barrett] Well, you can be as dismissive
as you want, there's a reason B-Fab

532
00:37:22,843 --> 00:37:27,447
is on this roster, and there's a reason
B-Fab is opening a lot of eyes,

533
00:37:27,481 --> 00:37:32,618
but now she's getting punked out
by the number one contender.

534
00:37:33,386 --> 00:37:36,707
And that's a mistake,
a rare mistake from Charlotte.

535
00:37:36,740 --> 00:37:38,040
[Tessitore] But this is the purpose

536
00:37:38,075 --> 00:37:42,029
and intensity
that B-Fab displayed backstage

537
00:37:42,062 --> 00:37:43,864
when she stepped to Charlotte.

538
00:37:43,897 --> 00:37:45,449
[Barrett] Yeah,
it's the shot you don't hear

539
00:37:45,482 --> 00:37:47,267
that takes you down, Charlotte,

540
00:37:47,301 --> 00:37:51,772
and taking B-Fab lightly is a huge,
huge error

541
00:37:51,805 --> 00:37:54,274
for someone
with the experience of Charlotte Flair.

542
00:37:54,308 --> 00:37:57,377
[Tessitore] Writhing that shoulder
right into her gut, then the suplex,

543
00:37:57,411 --> 00:38:01,298
and now some momentum
for the upset seeking B-Fab.

544
00:38:08,337 --> 00:38:11,975
Big sweeping kick
and Charlotte crumbles to her knees.

545
00:38:13,442 --> 00:38:18,365
Of course WrestleMania destiny
with Tiffany Stratton come April.

546
00:38:21,468 --> 00:38:25,305
[Barrett] Well, B-Fab looking to pull off
the mother of all upsets,

547
00:38:25,822 --> 00:38:30,460
but Charlotte Flair,
as she always seems to do… Oh! Oh!

548
00:38:30,493 --> 00:38:34,114
[Tessitore]
B-Fab into the cover for the upset.

549
00:38:34,147 --> 00:38:36,517
And that shoulder up from Charlotte Flair.

550
00:38:36,549 --> 00:38:39,185
[Barrett] Well, legs for days connecting

551
00:38:39,219 --> 00:38:42,756
almost flush
with the kisser of Charlotte Flair,

552
00:38:42,788 --> 00:38:44,708
the experience of Charlotte Flair.

553
00:38:44,741 --> 00:38:48,127
Pulled her head backwards
at the last moment,

554
00:38:48,161 --> 00:38:53,150
reducing the impact of that kick
just managing to kick out,

555
00:38:53,183 --> 00:38:55,168
but Charlotte is glassy-eyed.

556
00:38:55,202 --> 00:38:56,252
[Tessitore] She is indeed.

557
00:38:57,437 --> 00:39:02,308
Remember, her first singles match
on SmackDown since December 8th of '23.

558
00:39:04,444 --> 00:39:08,248
[Barrett] Opportunities are not given
at this level, you have to take them.

559
00:39:08,281 --> 00:39:10,083
B-Fab doing their best.

560
00:39:10,116 --> 00:39:14,154
But that super kick to the jaw
is a game changing moment, Joe.

561
00:39:14,188 --> 00:39:18,342
[Tessitore] Opportunity
for Charlotte Flair, natural selection.

562
00:39:20,711 --> 00:39:25,749
[Barrett] You can count to 300 from here
and Charlotte Flair knows it.

563
00:39:27,701 --> 00:39:32,990
What a great fight from B-Fab,
but this now is just a procession.

564
00:39:33,022 --> 00:39:34,741
[Tessitore] It is locked in.

565
00:39:35,609 --> 00:39:40,814
It is being arched in the Figure 8
on B-Fab.

566
00:39:41,315 --> 00:39:43,317
[bell dings]

567
00:39:45,801 --> 00:39:47,020
And she's not releasing it, Wade.

568
00:39:47,754 --> 00:39:52,942
Charlotte Flair is not releasing
the Figure 8 leg lock on B-Fab.

569
00:39:52,976 --> 00:39:57,147
[Barrett] Well, B-Fab had the audacity
to turn this into a fight.

570
00:39:57,181 --> 00:40:00,334
B-Fab gave a hell of an account of her…

571
00:40:00,366 --> 00:40:03,636
[Tessitore] This has gone too far,
well too far.

572
00:40:03,670 --> 00:40:04,904
[Barrett] Wait a second.

573
00:40:06,056 --> 00:40:07,156
[Tessitore] Oh!

574
00:40:07,975 --> 00:40:10,359
Hey, that bell was ringing Tiffy time.

575
00:40:11,778 --> 00:40:13,230
[Barrett] Well, it's Tiffany Stratton

576
00:40:13,263 --> 00:40:15,832
who was jumped last week
by Charlotte Flair.

577
00:40:15,866 --> 00:40:17,701
Locked in that Figure 8.

578
00:40:17,734 --> 00:40:22,138
These two are meeting at WrestleMania
and the gloves are firmly off.

579
00:40:22,172 --> 00:40:25,592
[Tessitore] And now security
as well as officials

580
00:40:25,625 --> 00:40:30,497
are in there to break up
the Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton,

581
00:40:30,531 --> 00:40:35,801
the Royal Rumble winner and soon to be
challenger for Tiffany, Charlotte Flair.

582
00:40:37,554 --> 00:40:40,757
Look at the amount of security
to break these two up.

583
00:40:40,790 --> 00:40:45,345
[Barrett] Well, in a matter of about
two short weeks, these two have gone

584
00:40:45,379 --> 00:40:49,600
from barely knowing one another
to having a burning hate--

585
00:40:49,633 --> 00:40:51,101
[Tessitore] Oh! Charlotte breaks free.

586
00:40:52,051 --> 00:40:55,689
Charlotte was able to break free,
elbowing security on the way.

587
00:40:56,256 --> 00:41:00,394
[Barrett] We got about 15 security guards,
producers, referees in there,

588
00:41:00,426 --> 00:41:03,063
barely able to pry these two apart.

589
00:41:07,567 --> 00:41:09,937
[Tessitore]
Now they are able to separate them.

590
00:41:11,471 --> 00:41:12,955
Stay back. Stay back. Stay back.

591
00:41:12,990 --> 00:41:15,042
[Tessitore] Charles Robinson,
veteran referee, security,

592
00:41:15,075 --> 00:41:16,343
and then somehow…

593
00:41:17,493 --> 00:41:19,129
Oh, she pulls at her legs.

594
00:41:20,297 --> 00:41:22,415
[Barrett] By hell or high water,

595
00:41:22,449 --> 00:41:26,220
Tiffany Stratton
is getting a pound of flesh tonight

596
00:41:26,252 --> 00:41:28,689
from Charlotte Flair,
the number 1 contender.

597
00:41:28,721 --> 00:41:30,891
[Tessitore] Tiffany Stratton,
the Women's Champion,

598
00:41:30,924 --> 00:41:33,944
just pulling Charlotte Flair
out of the ring

599
00:41:33,977 --> 00:41:36,513
and delivering right hand
after right hand.

600
00:41:37,047 --> 00:41:41,084
[Barrett] Well, Charlotte Flair throwing
lefts and rights at producers,

601
00:41:41,118 --> 00:41:43,237
referees, desperate to get--

602
00:41:43,270 --> 00:41:45,272
[Tessitore] Oh! Off the steel steps!

603
00:41:46,623 --> 00:41:52,930
And Tiffany ground and pound as she
came flying down on the 14-time Champion.

604
00:41:52,962 --> 00:41:55,531
[Barrett] But we don't have
any more security guards here,

605
00:41:55,566 --> 00:41:56,833
this is all we've got,

606
00:41:56,866 --> 00:41:58,685
and they cannot separate them.

607
00:42:02,406 --> 00:42:05,409
And now Flair's on top
of our announce desk.

608
00:42:07,144 --> 00:42:09,696
And she goes flying down on Tiffany.

609
00:42:12,316 --> 00:42:14,067
And they're back to brawling.

610
00:42:14,100 --> 00:42:15,969
[Barrett] My God, somebody get a stun gun.

611
00:42:16,803 --> 00:42:18,171
[Tessitore] Honestly.

612
00:42:18,205 --> 00:42:20,641
Oh, did you just see
that elbow she delivered?

613
00:42:20,674 --> 00:42:21,808
[Barrett stammers] What?

614
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:24,627
[Tessitore] This is outrageous.

615
00:42:26,078 --> 00:42:28,815
[Barrett] Took about
4 or 5 security guards to get her up.

616
00:42:29,816 --> 00:42:33,921
[Tessitore] We're 36 days away
from WrestleMania 41

617
00:42:33,953 --> 00:42:35,422
when they're gonna meet up.

618
00:42:35,455 --> 00:42:40,027
But they're wasting no time.
It is boiled over here in Barce…

619
00:42:40,060 --> 00:42:42,346
No way. Are you kidding me?

620
00:42:42,379 --> 00:42:48,268
No way. Oh, my.
Tiffy time clears them all out

621
00:42:48,301 --> 00:42:53,257
and Charlotte goes down too
and now she's pounding away again.

622
00:42:53,290 --> 00:42:56,859
[Barrett] I think Charlotte's collapsed
from sheer exhaustion at this point,

623
00:42:56,894 --> 00:42:59,712
those security guards were holding her up.

624
00:43:01,815 --> 00:43:04,952
It's a long road until WrestleMania.

625
00:43:05,969 --> 00:43:07,187
[Tessitore] Look at Charlotte.

626
00:43:08,772 --> 00:43:12,826
[Barrett] These two are ready to go
right now, forget WrestleMania 41.

627
00:43:12,859 --> 00:43:15,162
[Tessitore] They want more
and she's being dragged away.

628
00:43:20,784 --> 00:43:25,455
For the longest time I was so focused
on the individuals right in front of me.

629
00:43:26,240 --> 00:43:29,159
I didn't realize
that somebody was benefiting

630
00:43:29,192 --> 00:43:31,178
every single time I got screwed.

631
00:43:34,114 --> 00:43:39,252
April 7th, 2024, WrestleMania 40,
Drew McIntyre defeats Seth Rollins

632
00:43:39,286 --> 00:43:40,971
for the World Heavyweight Championship.

633
00:43:41,004 --> 00:43:45,609
A moment four years in the making,
a moment absolutely perfect.

634
00:43:46,926 --> 00:43:50,096
Until it wasn't.
I was assaulted from behind.

635
00:43:50,964 --> 00:43:54,401
And Damian Priest cashed in his money
in the bank briefcase,

636
00:43:54,433 --> 00:43:55,669
robbing me of my moment.

637
00:44:00,223 --> 00:44:02,375
But it doesn't end there, does it?

638
00:44:02,409 --> 00:44:05,679
No, June 15th, Clash at the Castle,
my home country.

639
00:44:06,279 --> 00:44:10,784
A moment more perfect than perfect
until it wasn't once again.

640
00:44:11,468 --> 00:44:16,190
Screwed once again,
that vulture picked the bones once again.

641
00:44:17,007 --> 00:44:18,225
Fast forward one month.

642
00:44:19,243 --> 00:44:23,029
Time to fight fire with fire.
Money in the Bank.

643
00:44:23,063 --> 00:44:25,132
I win the Money in the Bank contract.

644
00:44:25,165 --> 00:44:30,837
I cash in and I get screwed once again
and that parasite, that leech Priest

645
00:44:30,871 --> 00:44:33,006
is there to capitalize.

646
00:44:34,942 --> 00:44:37,109
Even when you lost the title,
you didn't know how to succeed

647
00:44:37,144 --> 00:44:40,214
unless it was off my back,
which brings us to the Royal Rumble.

648
00:44:40,247 --> 00:44:44,768
Soon as my back was turned,
eliminated thanks to Priest.

649
00:44:44,801 --> 00:44:48,254
Then Elimination Chamber, my last chance
at the title, I claymore John Cena,

650
00:44:48,288 --> 00:44:50,457
I'm about to pin the man who won the match

651
00:44:50,490 --> 00:44:52,843
and, Priest, you can't help yourself,
you steal it from behind,

652
00:44:52,875 --> 00:44:54,745
so I dropped your arse.

653
00:44:54,778 --> 00:44:57,763
You wanted my attention. You've got it.

654
00:44:58,882 --> 00:45:03,670
This isn't about the World Championships.
You took that from me twice.

655
00:45:04,488 --> 00:45:07,406
This is about putting you down for good.

656
00:45:08,642 --> 00:45:12,279
So you can never take
anything from me again.

657
00:45:16,783 --> 00:45:19,453
[Tessitore] Message delivered
by Drew McIntyre

658
00:45:19,486 --> 00:45:20,938
and still to come tonight,

659
00:45:20,971 --> 00:45:24,091
our WWE Tag Team Championship,

660
00:45:24,124 --> 00:45:28,111
the Street Profits against DIY tonight,

661
00:45:28,145 --> 00:45:31,013
gold on the line from here in Barcelona.

662
00:45:33,183 --> 00:45:36,687
Of course the news cycle following
that John Cena turn in Toronto.

663
00:45:37,654 --> 00:45:40,190
It included reactions
from nearly every form of media

664
00:45:40,223 --> 00:45:46,363
and entertainment outlet there was,
so of course The Miz has to get in on it.

665
00:45:49,732 --> 00:45:55,606
[Garcia] Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome the host of Miz TV,

666
00:45:55,638 --> 00:45:58,091
The Miz!

667
00:45:58,125 --> 00:45:59,643
[Tessitore] And when we come back,

668
00:45:59,676 --> 00:46:03,897
it's a very special
international edition of Miz TV,

669
00:46:03,931 --> 00:46:07,484
as The American Nightmare,
Cody Rhodes is a special guest.

670
00:46:07,518 --> 00:46:12,689
Miz TV from Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
Don't go anywhere.

671
00:46:24,852 --> 00:46:29,339
[Styles] Tonight I have the opportunity
to become WWE Champion.

672
00:46:29,373 --> 00:46:32,475
When I get an opportunity, I seize it.

673
00:46:32,509 --> 00:46:34,478
[Cole] From the heart
of the United Kingdom,

674
00:46:34,511 --> 00:46:36,279
Styles and Mahal.

675
00:46:37,446 --> 00:46:39,149

Styles trying to quicken the pace.

676
00:46:39,183 --> 00:46:41,250
This is where Styles feels at home.

677
00:46:41,285 --> 00:46:42,769
[Cole] Across the ring.

678
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,356
[commentators shouting]

679
00:46:46,390 --> 00:46:48,475
[Cole] Styles got a foot on the rope.

680
00:46:49,442 --> 00:46:51,395
Oh! Using the top rope.

681
00:46:56,866 --> 00:46:57,868
[speaking indistinctly]

682
00:46:59,403 --> 00:47:01,038
[commentator] He hit it! He hit it!

683
00:47:03,207 --> 00:47:05,342
Styles has done it again!

684
00:47:05,375 --> 00:47:09,229
[Cole] AJ Styles is the WWE Champion.

685
00:47:09,263 --> 00:47:14,468
[commentator]
…in the United Kingdom for AJ Styles.

686
00:47:19,556 --> 00:47:23,343
[Tessitore] It was great to see AJ Styles
with Logan Paul the other day at MSG,

687
00:47:23,377 --> 00:47:26,212
and The Miz wasn't bashful
about offering up Miz TV

688
00:47:26,246 --> 00:47:28,115
as an outlet for Cody Rhodes right now.

689
00:47:30,634 --> 00:47:33,220
[commentators shout]

690
00:47:33,252 --> 00:47:34,453
[Tessitore] They haven't stopped.

691
00:47:34,488 --> 00:47:35,856
[Barrett] Steady on, Miz.

692

[The Miz speaking Spanish]

693
00:47:37,107 --> 00:47:39,375
[Tessitore] Oh, The Miz is trying
to talk to the crowd.

694
00:47:39,408 --> 00:47:41,929
Meanwhile, Tiffany Stratton
and Charlotte Flair are still going at it.

695
00:47:41,962 --> 00:47:44,114
[Barrett] Well, this is the brawl
that may never end

696
00:47:44,147 --> 00:47:46,667
until WrestleMania 41.

697
00:47:47,917 --> 00:47:53,022
The baddest of bad blood boiling over
between these two women.

698
00:47:53,056 --> 00:47:57,728
[Tessitore] It was nonstop
out at ringside moments ago.

699
00:47:57,761 --> 00:48:02,399
Security and officials thought they
had it contained, but guess again, Wade.

700
00:48:02,432 --> 00:48:06,069
[Barrett] Well, we have the woman
who holds the gold, Tiffany Stratton,

701
00:48:06,103 --> 00:48:09,656
and the woman who believes
the gold is her birthright.

702
00:48:09,690 --> 00:48:11,674
The 14-time Champion.

703
00:48:11,708 --> 00:48:15,696
Charlotte Flair,
neither woman taking a backward step.

704
00:48:16,613 --> 00:48:19,399
[Tessitore]
We got a blonde bash in Barcelona.

705
00:48:21,518 --> 00:48:25,189
As finally security
wraps around the waist.

706
00:48:25,873 --> 00:48:27,007
[Barrett] Don't talk too soon.

707
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,910
[Tessitore] …Charlotte Flair,
as she was able to push Tiffany Stratton

708
00:48:29,942 --> 00:48:31,545
-out of the way.
-Get off me!

709
00:48:32,212 --> 00:48:36,350
And she's begging to get free,
and meanwhile, where's Tiff--

710
00:48:36,383 --> 00:48:37,651
-No!
-[Barrett] Oh, no!

711
00:48:37,683 --> 00:48:40,354
She's all the way up top on the Videotron.

712
00:48:40,386 --> 00:48:43,690
-[Barrett] Don't do it!
-[Tessitore] No!

713
00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:59,122
And a kick for good measure.

714
00:48:59,156 --> 00:49:04,444
[Barrett] Well this one ain't over,
but I'm scoring it to Tiffany Stratton.

715
00:49:05,662 --> 00:49:10,466
[Tessitore] Can you believe how high
she was able to climb and move down.

716
00:49:10,500 --> 00:49:12,803
There's a new queen in town!

717
00:49:12,836 --> 00:49:16,690
[Tessitore] There's a new queen in town,
she screams back at Charlotte Flair.

718
00:49:22,980 --> 00:49:24,013
[Barrett] Follow that, Miz.

719
00:49:25,115 --> 00:49:28,134
Yeah, yeah,
I would say it is very awesome.

720
00:49:28,167 --> 00:49:34,691
That is a way to start off Miz TV.
Anything can happen.

721
00:49:34,725 --> 00:49:39,980
So with that being said…
[speaking Spanish]

722
00:49:45,285 --> 00:49:50,440
Miz TV. My guest tonight
should have taken my advice

723
00:49:50,473 --> 00:49:52,843
and accepted the final boss's offer.

724
00:49:53,944 --> 00:49:58,147
Instead… Instead, he got beat up

725
00:49:58,182 --> 00:50:01,285
by two great rappers, Travis Scott

726
00:50:03,252 --> 00:50:04,571
and John Cena.

727
00:50:08,058 --> 00:50:13,529
He is a man who will face John Cena
in the main event of WrestleMania,

728
00:50:13,564 --> 00:50:18,402
who unlike me, will not beat John Cena

729
00:50:18,435 --> 00:50:21,138

Please give it up
for the self-proclaimed QB1 of WWE.

and you better believe intense

745
00:51:38,498 --> 00:51:43,153
in detailing his feelings after what
happened with John Cena in the final boss,

746
00:51:43,187 --> 00:51:46,990
the attack in Toronto
at Elimination Chamber, and, Wade,

747
00:51:47,024 --> 00:51:49,243
we heard it SmackDown at Philly.

748
00:51:49,276 --> 00:51:53,647
The crowd at Madison Square Garden
in New York heard it, and now here's

749

the undisputed Champion in Spain.

750
00:51:56,500 --> 00:51:59,051
[Barrett] Yeah, there's a lot of sympathy
for Cody Rhodes

751
00:51:59,086 --> 00:52:01,522
and what's happened to him
over the last couple of weeks,

752
00:52:01,555 --> 00:52:02,656
but it has to be said

753
00:52:02,689 --> 00:52:06,660
he did decline the final boss's offer.

754
00:52:06,692 --> 00:52:08,962
Very few would have done so.

755
00:52:08,995 --> 00:52:13,232

and he's quite happy to lie in it

might say,

-Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut!

questions right here, right now.

Tiffy time, so I've got some time to go.

How's that for an episode of Miz TV?

766
00:52:55,125 --> 00:52:57,144
[Barrett] There's no
hard hitting questions tonight,

767
00:52:57,176 --> 00:52:59,730
just hard hitting offense

768
00:52:59,763 --> 00:53:02,499

and speak to one man,

00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:24,971
including the two title matches.
The Knight got the best of him last week

831
00:58:25,004 --> 00:58:27,307
with the BFT on top of that steel chair.

832
00:58:28,759 --> 00:58:31,879
So now it's this version of Nakamura
looking to move forward.

833
00:59:29,685 --> 00:59:35,241
[Garcia] And his opponent from
Kyoto, Japan, weighing in at 220 pounds,

834
00:59:35,274 --> 00:59:39,812
Shinsuke Nakamura.

835
00:59:43,533 --> 00:59:48,471
[Barrett] Eerie, enigmatic presence
from the Japanese superstar

836
00:59:48,504 --> 00:59:49,857
who had, as you mentioned Joe,

837
00:59:49,890 --> 00:59:52,359
a disaster week last week,

838
00:59:52,392 --> 00:59:56,430
losing the United States Championship
to LA Knight,

839
00:59:56,462 --> 01:00:01,919
and I would expect an even more vicious
side of Nakamura to emerge this week.

840
01:00:12,712 --> 01:00:15,781
[Tessitore] Priest and Nakamura
on SmackDown.

841
01:00:20,854 --> 01:00:26,292
So a week removed from losing the title,
a week ago against LA Knight.

842
01:00:26,326 --> 01:00:29,312
The first time that Shinsuke was pinned

843
01:00:29,346 --> 01:00:33,517
since April of 2024,
that was a match weighed against Sheamus.

844
01:00:33,549 --> 01:00:35,586
[Barrett] Yeah, well,
there's now a ton of rage

845
01:00:35,618 --> 01:00:38,288
built up inside Shinsuke Nakamura

846
01:00:38,321 --> 01:00:40,841
and indeed his opponent who,
as you mentioned,

847
01:00:40,874 --> 01:00:43,676
has had major issues with Drew McIntyre

848
01:00:43,710 --> 01:00:45,462
over the past several weeks.

849
01:00:46,495 --> 01:00:52,035
These men are about to unleash that rage
in front of this rabid Barcelona audience.

850
01:00:52,069 --> 01:00:53,971
[Tessitore] You mentioned the issues
with Drew McIntyre.

851
01:00:54,004 --> 01:00:58,841
Drew went into great detail
earlier tonight in framing that rivalry

852
01:00:58,875 --> 01:01:01,979
that's been simmering
for really the better part of a year.

853
01:01:02,011 --> 01:01:04,631
Of course you consider what happened
last year in Philadelphia

854
01:01:04,665 --> 01:01:06,015
at WrestleMania 40

855
01:01:06,049 --> 01:01:09,136
through the recent weeks
that we've seen between Damian Priest

856
01:01:09,169 --> 01:01:11,020
and Drew McIntyre.

857
01:01:11,053 --> 01:01:14,707
[Barrett] Yeah, Priest has kind of ruined
Drew's career over the past 12 months.

858
01:01:14,741 --> 01:01:17,243
He cost him the Championship
at WrestleMania,

859
01:01:17,277 --> 01:01:20,464
eliminated him from behind
in the Royal Rumble

860
01:01:20,497 --> 01:01:21,765
although that's perfectly legal,

861
01:01:21,798 --> 01:01:24,718
and then of course pinned him
in the Elimination Chamber

862
01:01:24,750 --> 01:01:30,640
and all of that has sat incredibly unwell
inside the mind of McIntyre.

863
01:01:30,674 --> 01:01:33,827
[Tessitore] As we saw,
to start SmackDown last week

864
01:01:34,461 --> 01:01:35,979
when McIntyre was on the attack.

865
01:01:36,013 --> 01:01:38,966
But then later in the evening
Priest attacked McIntyre

866
01:01:38,999 --> 01:01:41,401
as he turns the tables
here on Shinsuke Nakamura

867
01:01:41,435 --> 01:01:42,752
with a series of big right hands,

868
01:01:42,786 --> 01:01:44,788
and then the uppercut comes in.

869
01:01:45,471 --> 01:01:47,524
[Barrett] Well, Nakamura's
such a unique striker,

870
01:01:47,558 --> 01:01:51,395
there's nothing unique about
the striking from The Street King.

871
01:01:51,944 --> 01:01:54,865
It's simple but highly effective.

872
01:01:58,368 --> 01:02:00,020
[Tessitore] And that as well.

873
01:02:00,053 --> 01:02:05,942
Pure power delivered by Damian Priest,
el campeón, as they say here.

874
01:02:10,446 --> 01:02:13,600
[Tessitore] The road to WrestleMania
has taken Friday Night SmackDown

875
01:02:13,634 --> 01:02:15,152
to here, to Barcelona.

876
01:02:15,685 --> 01:02:20,540
A city with a grand history of
outrageous characters like Pablo Picasso,

877
01:02:20,573 --> 01:02:25,678
Salvador Dali, and two of the characters
of this game going at it right here,

878
01:02:25,712 --> 01:02:31,335
Damian Priest and Shinsuke Nakamura,
very distinct personalities

879
01:02:31,368 --> 01:02:33,002
and styles in the ring.

880
01:02:33,035 --> 01:02:37,374
[Barrett] Damian Priest has had to absorb
a massive amount of punishment

881
01:02:37,406 --> 01:02:43,096
to this poison fueled Nakamura,
punishing his opponent this evening.

882
01:02:44,498 --> 01:02:47,033
Trying to get himself
back in contention for goal,

883
01:02:47,067 --> 01:02:52,221
but it's never gonna be that easy
against a slugger like Damian Priest.

884
01:02:53,406 --> 01:02:55,024
[Tessitore] You brought
the mental side, Wade,

885
01:02:55,058 --> 01:02:57,277
of Shinsuke Nakamura a week
removed from losing

886
01:02:57,310 --> 01:03:00,129
the US title championship to LA Knight.

887
01:03:00,163 --> 01:03:01,615
How do you approach it?

888
01:03:01,647 --> 01:03:05,484
A reset or regroup or just get back
on the horse and get back to action?

889
01:03:05,519 --> 01:03:08,422
[Barrett] Well, the way this is going,
getting back on the horse appears

890
01:03:08,455 --> 01:03:10,841
to have been the correct move
for Nakamura.

891
01:03:10,874 --> 01:03:12,692
-I spoke too soon!
-[Tessitore exclaims]

892
01:03:13,527 --> 01:03:15,345
[Tessitore] Damian Priest.

893
01:03:16,680 --> 01:03:18,182
Just what he needed.

894
01:03:19,950 --> 01:03:23,319
[Barrett] A reset for Priest,
a reset in this match,

895
01:03:23,352 --> 01:03:26,038
a chance to get some oxygen in the lungs.

896
01:03:26,073 --> 01:03:28,424
Instinctive move here from Priest,

897
01:03:28,457 --> 01:03:32,645
driving the forehead of
Nakamura into the mat.

898
01:03:32,678 --> 01:03:34,815
Now who can recover first?

899
01:03:40,236 --> 01:03:44,341
[Tessitore] Center of the ring,
toe to toe, Nakamura and Priest.

900
01:03:44,374 --> 01:03:47,627
[Barrett] Priest taking full advantage of
that limb length.

901
01:03:47,660 --> 01:03:51,464
Gives a massive striking advantages
over almost anybody.

902
01:03:52,899 --> 01:03:54,718
[Tessitore] And he's showing it here.

903
01:03:54,750 --> 01:03:59,022
[Barrett] Opponents' almost never out of
range of those fists and those feet.

904
01:03:59,923 --> 01:04:02,091
Or flying elbows for that matter.

905
01:04:02,125 --> 01:04:05,479
[Tessitore] Damian Priest,
just gathering momentum,

906
01:04:05,511 --> 01:04:07,147
Broken Arrow and Priest…

907
01:04:07,181 --> 01:04:09,366
Oh, he was looking to line it up.

908
01:04:10,216 --> 01:04:14,203
[Barrett] And that is about the
smartest instincts a competitor can have

909
01:04:14,238 --> 01:04:19,343
when your opponent is flowing like that,
just attacking you at will.

910
01:04:19,375 --> 01:04:21,160
-Oh, God.
-[Tessitore] Oh, no. Here he comes.

911
01:04:21,194 --> 01:04:23,997
Oh, he sends them flying
on top of our desk.

912
01:04:29,986 --> 01:04:32,522
[Barrett] And things have changed
rapidly in this one.

913
01:04:32,556 --> 01:04:34,658
Now it's Nakamura on the back foot.

914
01:04:34,691 --> 01:04:36,426
Perhaps in the drops of…

915
01:04:36,460 --> 01:04:39,245
What on earth is Damian Priest
cooking up here.

916
01:04:39,279 --> 01:04:40,714
[crowd chanting]

917
01:04:40,747 --> 01:04:43,984
[Tessitore] No, he's thinking of
going old-school, climbing up top.

918
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:48,004
He had such momentum moments ago
he was looking for the South of Heaven.

919
01:04:48,038 --> 01:04:49,957
Mentor is The Undertaker…

920
01:04:49,990 --> 01:04:51,325
[Tessitore] But there he goes!

921
01:04:51,357 --> 01:04:53,910
-[Barrett] Old-school punishment!
-Throw his body off the top rope!

922
01:04:53,944 --> 01:04:56,495
[crowd cheering]

923
01:04:56,529 --> 01:04:59,015
[crowd chanting]

924
01:04:59,049 --> 01:05:00,701
[Tessitore] And now he's feeling it.

925
01:05:05,138 --> 01:05:06,490
And here it comes.

926
01:05:07,908 --> 01:05:10,109
Nakamura able to get out of the way.

927
01:05:11,528 --> 01:05:13,596
-[Barrett] Tend to that re--
-[Tessitore] Oh!

928
01:05:13,629 --> 01:05:16,133
Oh, boy, but Priest has it blocked.

929
01:05:16,165 --> 01:05:18,585
How long can he keep that hold on?

930
01:05:18,618 --> 01:05:22,105
Nakamura's broken it
and the arm might be going next.

931
01:05:23,390 --> 01:05:25,241
Gonna hyperextend that elbow.

932
01:05:25,274 --> 01:05:28,011
Priest gets his way
out of there just about.

933
01:05:28,662 --> 01:05:29,997
[grunts]

934
01:05:33,232 --> 01:05:36,270
[Tessitore] Now back to
the center of the ring, strike for strike.

935
01:05:36,787 --> 01:05:41,658
Oh, the big lariat just flips them over
head over heels.

936
01:05:41,692 --> 01:05:46,680
[Barrett] Second bite of the cherry
for Damian Priest was effective

937
01:05:46,712 --> 01:05:52,118
and this signals the end, perhaps,
for Shinsuke Nakamura.

938
01:05:52,152 --> 01:05:53,669
[Tessitore] He can sen…

939
01:05:53,703 --> 01:05:55,022
What in the world?

940
01:05:55,055 --> 01:05:58,241
As my view is completely blocked right now

941
01:05:58,274 --> 01:06:04,714
because a 6'5, 280 pound Scottish warrior
has come out ringside.

942
01:06:04,748 --> 01:06:07,234
And here's the roll up by Nakamura.

943
01:06:07,267 --> 01:06:12,022
[Barrett] Well, Priest made it clear it
was on sight as soon as he saw McIntyre.

944
01:06:12,055 --> 01:06:15,576
And that has allowed Nakamura
back into the fight.

945
01:06:15,609 --> 01:06:17,794
And now he's about to put
Priest to the sword.

946
01:06:17,828 --> 01:06:20,596
-[Tessitore] He's looking for--
-Thanks to the presence of McIntyre.

947
01:06:20,631 --> 01:06:24,167
[Tessitore] Ooh! He went for a Kinshasa,
but it becomes a South of Heaven.

948
01:06:25,118 --> 01:06:28,555
-[bell rings]
-And here comes McIntyre.

949
01:06:28,589 --> 01:06:31,991
He just couldn't
contain himself, could he?

950
01:06:32,743 --> 01:06:35,212
[Barrett] Well, as far as
McIntyre's concerned,

951
01:06:35,245 --> 01:06:39,433
this is a year's worth of cheap shots
from Damian Priest

952
01:06:39,466 --> 01:06:41,968
being paid back before our eyes.

953
01:06:42,002 --> 01:06:47,256
[Tessitore] Priest was seconds away
from a cover and a likely pinfall victory,

954
01:06:47,290 --> 01:06:48,975
and Drew McIntyre…

955
01:06:49,009 --> 01:06:52,645
And now here they go, Priest and McIntyre!

956
01:06:52,678 --> 01:06:56,216
[Barrett] On sight,
just like Damian Priest said.

957
01:06:56,250 --> 01:06:59,285
-[Priest screams]
-Oh, thumbs to the eyes!

958
01:06:59,319 --> 01:07:00,736
[Tessitore] Eye gouge!

959
01:07:02,138 --> 01:07:03,423
Kinshasa!

960
01:07:03,457 --> 01:07:06,276
Shinsuke took advantage

961
01:07:06,310 --> 01:07:10,379
and sent The Kinshasa right to the back
of the head of Damian Priest.

962
01:07:14,067 --> 01:07:16,870
[crowd chanting]

963
01:07:27,330 --> 01:07:29,515
[Barrett] Apparently a warrior's
understanding

964
01:07:29,549 --> 01:07:33,886
between Nakamura and McIntyre,
damage done.

965
01:07:33,921 --> 01:07:37,357
You're free to pick the bones now, Drew.

966
01:07:37,390 --> 01:07:38,859
[Tessitore] Look at the face.

967
01:07:38,892 --> 01:07:40,794
[Barrett] And take the pounce, he will.

968
01:07:41,694 --> 01:07:47,433
He said, "Thank you for The Kinshasa.
I will gladly now do this."

969
01:07:47,484 --> 01:07:49,620
You cashed in your Money in The Bank,

970
01:07:49,653 --> 01:07:52,022
you eliminated me from the Royal Rumble,

971
01:07:52,055 --> 01:07:55,125
you eliminated me
in the Elimination Chamber.

972
01:07:55,158 --> 01:07:58,462
Well, this is what you get, Damian Priest.

973
01:08:02,616 --> 01:08:05,852
[Tessitore] As he sends him right
into the barrier as hard as could be.

974
01:08:05,886 --> 01:08:08,120
[Barrett] As spine first

975
01:08:08,955 --> 01:08:11,424
goes Damian Priest, who at this point…

976
01:08:11,841 --> 01:08:14,611
[Tessitore] Oh, man. Full speed!

977
01:08:14,645 --> 01:08:18,849
[Barrett] After a match
with Nakamura and Kinshasa.

978
01:08:18,881 --> 01:08:21,285
-And now this.
-[Tessitore] Oh, man. Oh, man,

979
01:08:21,318 --> 01:08:25,805
Priest has got nothing left in the tank.
Just when he needs something,

980
01:08:25,839 --> 01:08:27,875
Because this is about to get ugly.

981
01:08:28,541 --> 01:08:30,827
[Tessitore] The steel steps!

982
01:08:33,145 --> 01:08:35,599
This is out of control.

983
01:08:35,631 --> 01:08:39,786
The damage that Drew McIntyre
is putting on Damian Priest.

984
01:08:41,572 --> 01:08:44,107
That's enough!
Drew, you're being sent out.

985
01:08:44,140 --> 01:08:45,826
-That's enough!
-[crowd chanting]

986
01:08:48,327 --> 01:08:49,996
[Tessitore] Week after week now.

987
01:08:52,432 --> 01:08:59,188
As Drew explained just why
he has such venom for Priest.

988
01:08:59,223 --> 01:09:05,429
[Barrett] McIntyre, who sees himself
as the teller of uncomfortable truths,

989
01:09:05,461 --> 01:09:09,148
there is no doubt, in his mind at least,

990
01:09:09,183 --> 01:09:14,321
of the righteousness of
The Scottish Warrior who has destroyed,

991
01:09:14,353 --> 01:09:16,924
physically, Damian Priest this evening.

992
01:09:16,956 --> 01:09:19,876
Wh… Priest. What are you doing, Priest?
Stay down.

993
01:09:20,577 --> 01:09:24,898
[Tessitore] Look at those eyes of The
Scottish Warrior as he sees that Priest

994
01:09:24,932 --> 01:09:28,218
has made it back to the ring
and he's gonna join them, Wade.

995
01:09:34,508 --> 01:09:37,778
[Barrett] The Claymore,
the pièce de résistance.

996
01:09:37,810 --> 01:09:40,330
On sight? On sight, is it?

997
01:09:40,363 --> 01:09:42,715
I took only one opportunity.

998
01:09:42,749 --> 01:09:48,589
You screwed me this whole year,
took advantage of every one of my moments.

999
01:09:48,621 --> 01:09:52,526
I have nothing now
but making your life a living hell.

1000
01:09:55,445 --> 01:09:57,197
[Tessitore] That's exactly
what he's been doing,

1001
01:09:57,231 --> 01:10:01,068
a brutal stomp on his head
after the Claymore.

1002
01:10:01,602 --> 01:10:04,338
[Barrett] Say what you want
about Drew McIntyre,

1003
01:10:04,371 --> 01:10:08,642
he was always gonna be true to his word,

1004
01:10:08,675 --> 01:10:12,029
much to the detriment of Damian Priest.

1005
01:10:12,446 --> 01:10:16,800
[Tessitore] Telling Damian Priest,
he's gonna make his life a living hell.

1006
01:10:18,001 --> 01:10:21,788
As we go backstage to Cathy Kelley.

1007
01:10:27,144 --> 01:10:31,481
Thanks, guys. I'm here with the WWE
Tag Team champions, DIY.

1008
01:10:31,514 --> 01:10:35,068
Now, Tommaso, Johnny,
you two have a massive title defense

1009
01:10:35,102 --> 01:10:37,120
tonight against The Street Profits.

1010
01:10:37,154 --> 01:10:40,773
What makes you two so sure that you
are going to walk out of Barcelona

1011
01:10:40,807 --> 01:10:42,693
still the Tag Team champions?

1012
01:10:43,242 --> 01:10:46,679
Cathy, I'm going to
answer your question with a question.

1013
01:10:47,297 --> 01:10:50,217
Why is SmackDown
the greatest Tag Team division

1014
01:10:50,250 --> 01:10:52,753
in all of professional wrestling
right now?

1015
01:10:54,237 --> 01:10:57,474
Because we are at the top of the mountain
and all these other Tag Team's,

1016
01:10:57,508 --> 01:11:01,728
they are trying to rise up to our level,
Street Profits included.

1017
01:11:01,762 --> 01:11:04,081
The Street Profits are
the way they are because of us.

1018
01:11:04,114 --> 01:11:07,201
We made them better,
but they're still not good enough.

1019
01:11:07,233 --> 01:11:10,554
Second place,
that's the story of The Street Profits.

1020
01:11:10,587 --> 01:11:11,638
We want the smoke.

1021
01:11:11,672 --> 01:11:15,157
No, in Title Matches, more like
we want to choke.

1022
01:11:15,192 --> 01:11:16,994
and tonight Barcelona, Spain

1023
01:11:17,027 --> 01:11:19,496
is gonna find out
what everybody already knows,

1024
01:11:19,530 --> 01:11:23,983
the B-T-T-I-T-W is DIY.

1025
01:11:25,702 --> 01:11:27,487
I have one more question for you.

1026
01:11:27,987 --> 01:11:32,425
How do you say, "moment of silence"
en español?

1027
01:11:32,910 --> 01:11:36,263
Don't answer that. Nobody cares about
your dumb ass moment of silence

1028
01:11:36,295 --> 01:11:38,866
just like you didn't care about
20 years of friendship

1029
01:11:38,898 --> 01:11:41,635
when you took a couple
cheap shots to secure those titles.

1030
01:11:41,668 --> 01:11:44,605
Well, now the jokes on you, isn't it?

1031
01:11:44,638 --> 01:11:47,608
Because the entire Tag Team division
is after the both of you.

1032
01:11:47,641 --> 01:11:51,545
You boys think we forgot what you did
to win those Championship titles?

1033
01:11:51,577 --> 01:11:52,746
Hell no, we haven't.

1034
01:11:52,779 --> 01:11:56,500
So just remember this when
you're done with The Street Profits,

1035
01:11:56,532 --> 01:11:59,670
there's unfinished business
between the four of us to take care of.

1036
01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:01,405
Yeah, so go get them, guys.

1037
01:12:01,438 --> 01:12:03,373
-Don't worry about it.
-Yeah, yeah. Good luck.

1038
01:12:03,407 --> 01:12:04,525
-Good luck.
-Enjoy. Have fun.

1039
01:12:04,558 --> 01:12:07,277
Yeah, we're all rooting for you.
Okay, bye now.

1040
01:12:07,995 --> 01:12:10,746
[Tessitore] They'll be defending
their Tag Championships later tonight

1041
01:12:10,781 --> 01:12:14,351
and there is The Legend Killer,
Randy Orton,

1042
01:12:14,384 --> 01:12:17,603
for the first time since October 11th,
an official Singles match.

1043
01:12:18,705 --> 01:12:20,958
Randy, Carmelo Hayes next.

1044
01:12:25,062 --> 01:12:27,748
[Tessitore] What a spectacular visit
we're having here in Barcelona.

1045
01:12:27,781 --> 01:12:31,285
Of course, the home of tapas,
a whole afternoon, vermouth with olives.

1046
01:12:31,318 --> 01:12:34,237
And what a crowd that has come out here.

1047
01:12:34,271 --> 01:12:38,659
The Pavelló Olímpic de Badalona
to see the first Friday Night SmackDown,

1048
01:12:38,692 --> 01:12:40,510
-including… Look at this!
-[Barrett] Oh!

1049
01:12:40,544 --> 01:12:41,845
FC Barcelona!

1050
01:12:41,879 --> 01:12:44,464
[Barrett] Absolute royalty
in the world of football,

1051
01:12:44,498 --> 01:12:45,766
or soccer if you prefer.

1052
01:12:45,799 --> 01:12:50,954
And of course, the wonder kid,
the 17-year-old Lamine Yamal,

1053
01:12:50,987 --> 01:12:54,691
the star of their Euro victory
over England, I might add.

1054
01:12:54,724 --> 01:13:00,264
We're still pretty upset about that, but
wow, what a player. What a future he has.

1055
01:13:00,297 --> 01:13:03,383
Welcome to SmackDown, FC Barcelona.

1056
01:13:03,800 --> 01:13:06,169
[Tessitore] Let's go backstage
to Cathy Kelley.

1057
01:13:09,389 --> 01:13:10,724
Yeah, thanks so much, Joe.

1058
01:13:10,757 --> 01:13:13,677
I'm here with the Women's
United States Champion--

1059
01:13:15,112 --> 01:13:18,415
Do you have credentials?
She's all clear, girls.

1060
01:13:19,099 --> 01:13:20,184
Thank you so much.

1061
01:13:20,217 --> 01:13:23,670
As I was saying, the Women's United States
Champion, Chelsea Green,

1062
01:13:23,704 --> 01:13:27,424
and her Secret Hervice agents,
Alba Fyre and Piper Niven.

1063
01:13:27,456 --> 01:13:30,577
Now, Chelsea, last week you were in a
street fight against Michin

1064
01:13:30,611 --> 01:13:32,029
and narrowly avoided defeat

1065
01:13:32,062 --> 01:13:35,182
after the debut of your new
Secret Hervice agent--

1066
01:13:35,215 --> 01:13:37,117
-Uh, Cathy.
-Uh…

1067
01:13:37,150 --> 01:13:39,336
Have you seen
the injustice that I've faced

1068
01:13:39,369 --> 01:13:43,507
as your first ever longest-reigning most
dangerous United States Women's Champion?

1069
01:13:43,540 --> 01:13:46,827
Huh? I've been thrown
into matches by Nicholas.

1070
01:13:46,860 --> 01:13:48,996
I put my body in harm's way against…

1071
01:13:49,029 --> 01:13:51,615
[scoffs] …people like Michin, no less,

1072
01:13:51,648 --> 01:13:56,469
so I did what any great leader would do
when she has her back against a wall.

1073
01:13:57,070 --> 01:13:59,656
I brought out my secret weapon. [chuckles]

1074
01:13:59,690 --> 01:14:02,726
And now The Green Administration
is in full force.

1075
01:14:04,461 --> 01:14:06,429
I'm sorry, you said
The Green Administration?

1076
01:14:06,830 --> 01:14:08,315
You know what sounds better to me?

1077
01:14:08,782 --> 01:14:13,603
And new WWE Women's United
States Champion,

1078
01:14:13,637 --> 01:14:15,822
Zelina Vega.

1079
01:14:15,856 --> 01:14:16,907
[chuckles]

1080
01:14:16,940 --> 01:14:18,492
Hold up, habanero.

1081
01:14:19,409 --> 01:14:21,245
If you want to get to Chelsea,

1082
01:14:22,829 --> 01:14:25,081
you're gonna have to go through us.

1083
01:14:25,115 --> 01:14:27,317
Okay, Suzuya Squad, that's fine.

1084
01:14:27,351 --> 01:14:30,254
Next week it'll be me and you,

1085
01:14:30,670 --> 01:14:35,175
and then you and that title are all mine.

1086
01:14:35,209 --> 01:14:36,960
[laughs] Bye.

1087
01:14:37,594 --> 01:14:39,563
We'll just see about that, won't we?

for revenge against Kevin Owens.

1119
01:16:20,848 --> 01:16:26,152
[Barrett] Yeah, well, let's take you back.
Four months ago, KO destroying the neck

1120
01:16:26,186 --> 01:16:30,574
of his former friend, Randy Orton,
with a banned Package Piledriver,

1121
01:16:30,607 --> 01:16:35,545
yet another overreaction
to a perceived slight by the prize fighter

1122
01:16:35,579 --> 01:16:37,898
left Orton's career in jeopardy,

1123
01:16:37,931 --> 01:16:41,818
but fast-forward to the
Elimination Chamber two weeks ago

1124
01:16:41,852 --> 01:16:47,958
when the Viper shockingly returned
and made a beeline for KO.

1125
01:16:47,991 --> 01:16:52,279
And KO had just gone
to hell and back with Sami Zayn,

1126
01:16:52,312 --> 01:16:58,085
eventually The Viper connected
with an RKO but that of course

1127
01:16:58,117 --> 01:17:03,657
was not quite enough, not done there,
lined up for a banned move of his own,

1128
01:17:03,690 --> 01:17:05,291
the notorious Punt.

1129
01:17:06,108 --> 01:17:12,416
Oh, KO just about managed to live to fight
another day thanks to our security,

1130

01:18:41,154 --> 01:18:43,607
at this here tonight against The Viper.

1159
01:18:43,639 --> 01:18:47,827
[Barrett] Well, Melo got busted talking
a little smack about The Viper last week,

1160
01:18:47,861 --> 01:18:50,246
behind the scenes on SmackDown,

1161
01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:55,018
and he might live to regret those words
because The Viper is looking

1162
01:18:55,052 --> 01:18:59,121
as poised and intense as ever,

1163
01:18:59,156 --> 01:19:03,994
especially considering what KO
put him through over the past four months.

1164
01:19:09,099 --> 01:19:12,251
But you can't blame Melo,
he's a young guy who wants to go

1165
01:19:12,286 --> 01:19:14,371
to the very top in short order,

1166
01:19:14,788 --> 01:19:17,808
and he's one of those rarities
that understands that

1167
01:19:17,840 --> 01:19:21,178
if you want to get to the top,
you've got to rattle some cages

1168
01:19:21,210 --> 01:19:23,045
in order to get yourself attention.

1169
01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:27,367
Well, Melo, you've got the attention
of The Apex Predator,

1170
01:19:27,401 --> 01:19:31,021
and what you do with
that attention from here is up to you.

1171
01:19:34,907 --> 01:19:36,242
-[Tessitore] Randy Orton…
-[bell rings]

1172
01:19:36,276 --> 01:19:41,815
out of action for months before we saw his
return in Toronto at Elimination Chamber.

1173
01:19:42,549 --> 01:19:48,155
His last singles match was October 8th
on NXT against Je'Von Evans.

1174
01:19:48,188 --> 01:19:50,874
-[chuckles] Look at Melo here.
-[crowd chants]

1175
01:19:50,907 --> 01:19:52,976
-[Barrett] I mean…
-[Tessitore] I mean really.

1176
01:19:59,398 --> 01:20:03,804
The body's saying respect, the face though
is sneering when close to Melo.

1177
01:20:03,837 --> 01:20:06,440
[Tessitore] It always is, isn't it?
He always has that one.

1178
01:20:11,128 --> 01:20:12,129
[Barrett, Tessitore groan]

1179
01:20:13,362 --> 01:20:14,414
[Tessitore] Really?

1180
01:20:15,249 --> 01:20:18,035
Against the 14 time World Champion…

1181
01:20:18,068 --> 01:20:19,803
[Barrett] You give him
the benefit of the doubt.

1182
01:20:23,790 --> 01:20:25,742
[Tessitore] Yeah,
how about a little return?

1183
01:20:27,644 --> 01:20:29,947
Gonna get tossed around this ring.

1184
01:20:29,980 --> 01:20:34,318
[Barrett] You got to mind the cojones of
Carmelo Hayes though.

1185
01:20:34,351 --> 01:20:36,937
Doing that to a future Hall of Famer.

1186
01:20:36,969 --> 01:20:40,123
[crowd counting, in Spanish]

1187
01:20:40,157 --> 01:20:41,858
[Tessitore] With each right hand.

1188
01:20:41,892 --> 01:20:44,126
[counting continues]

1189
01:20:44,161 --> 01:20:45,779
[counting stops]

1190
01:20:45,812 --> 01:20:48,031
You see his feet just coming off the mat.

1191
01:20:48,699 --> 01:20:53,620
And back for more into that ring post
and keep in mind with this international…

1192
01:20:55,289 --> 01:20:57,157
Oh, this is vintage!

1193
01:20:57,191 --> 01:20:58,192
Orton.

1194
01:21:01,077 --> 01:21:03,547
Just snapped the front of the desk.

1195
01:21:13,824 --> 01:21:16,309
[Tessitore] Joe and Wade with you here.
Friday Night SmackDown,

1196
01:21:16,343 --> 01:21:20,214
the first SmackDown to ever come to you
from Barcelona, Spain,

1197
01:21:20,246 --> 01:21:22,232
and it has been a thrilling night.

1198
01:21:22,266 --> 01:21:24,134
Randy Orton in action
against Carmelo Hayes.

1199
01:21:24,166 --> 01:21:27,221
Carmelo Hayes,
who at least deserves credit

1200
01:21:27,254 --> 01:21:29,639
for his outstanding level of activity.

1201
01:21:29,673 --> 01:21:32,059
All right now,
his 11th TV match of the year.

1202
01:21:32,092 --> 01:21:35,728
That's a tall task to try
to attack Orton that way.

1203
01:21:35,762 --> 01:21:39,916
And now Hayes goes right
to that back of that left leg

1204
01:21:39,950 --> 01:21:41,451
and delivers the kick as well.

1205
01:21:41,485 --> 01:21:43,637
[Barrett] Well Melo has been on a mission…

1206
01:21:44,471 --> 01:21:49,293
-[Tessitore] Hooks the leg.
-…to finally grab a legitimate victory

1207
01:21:49,326 --> 01:21:54,231
against an A-tier superstar
and slowly but surely

1208
01:21:54,264 --> 01:21:58,852
he is closing in on that
with the future Hall of Famer Randy Orton.

1209
01:22:00,871 --> 01:22:03,891
What a 180 in his career,
this would be for Melo

1210
01:22:03,924 --> 01:22:07,878
who just a month ago
was struggling to get any form of victory.

1211
01:22:07,911 --> 01:22:10,964
He's been on a hot-streak
ever since, really,

1212
01:22:10,998 --> 01:22:15,302
since linking up with that loose alliance
with The Miz in Melo Don't Miz.

1213
01:22:15,869 --> 01:22:18,438
[Tessitore] You just saw
the notice that the Hall of Fame ceremony

1214
01:22:18,472 --> 01:22:20,840
before WrestleMania
is going to be at the spectacular

1215
01:22:20,874 --> 01:22:23,844
Fontainebleau in Las Vegas in April.

1216
01:22:23,876 --> 01:22:27,598
That is an amazing facility
and what a lineup of course headlined

1217
01:22:27,630 --> 01:22:32,736
by Triple H to be inducted this year
into the WWE Hall of Fame.

1218
01:22:33,654 --> 01:22:36,389
Lex Luger also announced already.

1219
01:22:36,956 --> 01:22:38,458
As you can see, Carmelo Hayes

1220
01:22:40,626 --> 01:22:45,666
getting aggressive with Randy Orton.
His first Singles match since October 8th.

1221
01:22:45,699 --> 01:22:47,985
First vicious pile driver from Kevin Owens

1222
01:22:48,018 --> 01:22:50,920
that put him out of action
before his return.

1223
01:22:51,672 --> 01:22:54,657
And I'll tell you this, since Melo
got the upper hand in this one,

1224
01:22:54,691 --> 01:22:56,510
he has done one hell of a job

1225
01:22:56,543 --> 01:23:00,097
of giving The Viper zero room
whatsoever to operate.

1226
01:23:00,130 --> 01:23:02,165
-Oh!
-[Tessitore] Oh!

1227
01:23:04,251 --> 01:23:08,338
[Barrett] Randy Orton just works
to different rules than the rest of us.

1228
01:23:08,871 --> 01:23:11,525
Yeah, 6'5'', 290, chiseled.

1229
01:23:12,358 --> 01:23:15,812
There are different rules.
Snap slam by Orton!

1230
01:23:17,030 --> 01:23:20,601
[Barrett] And now Randy Orton
on the road to WrestleMania,

1231
01:23:20,634 --> 01:23:26,523
starting to tap into
that superlative best that only he can.

1232
01:23:31,495 --> 01:23:33,213
[Tessitore] He's gonna hang 'em up.

1233
01:23:34,865 --> 01:23:36,333
And bring it down.

1234
01:23:37,099 --> 01:23:42,089
And this crowd can't get enough,
but Carmelo Hayes able to counter.

1235
01:23:42,121 --> 01:23:45,409
[Barrett] Melo is one of the greatest
movers I've ever seen in that ring,

1236
01:23:45,442 --> 01:23:47,945
-and he needed to be there. Oh!
-[Tessitore] Oh!

1237
01:23:47,978 --> 01:23:49,429
Right out of the air!

1238
01:23:49,463 --> 01:23:50,797
Orton!

1239
01:23:50,831 --> 01:23:52,648
And Melo gets that left shoulder up.

1240
01:23:52,683 --> 01:23:57,471
[Barrett] Oh, God, what a reactionary
power slam there from Randy Orton.

1241
01:23:57,504 --> 01:24:02,108
Just when it looked like Melo had
the wind in his sails, instinctively,

1242
01:24:03,076 --> 01:24:06,597
The Viper snapping into one of
his finest moves,

1243
01:24:06,630 --> 01:24:09,867
Melo just about clinging on
in this matchup.

1244
01:24:10,467 --> 01:24:13,804
And now it's take-two for Randy Orton,
he doesn't miss twice.

1245
01:24:13,837 --> 01:24:15,355
[Tessitore] No, he doesn't.

1246
01:24:18,976 --> 01:24:21,378
How good does this feel for Randy Orton?

1247
01:24:22,896 --> 01:24:28,050
To get back at it in front of
a crowd like this.

1248
01:24:29,236 --> 01:24:34,241
[Barrett] Four months out
and now at his exceptional best already.

1249
01:24:34,273 --> 01:24:35,442
[crowd chanting] RKO!

1250
01:24:35,474 --> 01:24:38,762
And the chant has started in Barcelona.

1251
01:24:39,246 --> 01:24:41,598
Oh, and Hayes bails on it.

1252
01:24:42,065 --> 01:24:46,003
[Barrett] Smart from Carmelo Hayes,
but if he was really smart,

1253
01:24:46,036 --> 01:24:47,286
he'd have kept running.

1254
01:24:48,054 --> 01:24:49,056
That ain't smart.

1255
01:24:49,089 --> 01:24:51,724
[Tessitore] Oh, look at
the look on his face.

1256
01:24:51,758 --> 01:24:54,894
-Oh, he snaps down the neck of Orton.
-[Barrett] Oh! Bringing it in!

1257
01:24:54,928 --> 01:24:59,967
Baited The Viper in brilliance there
from Carmelo Hayes, I take it all back.

1258
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:01,434
Now finish the job.

1259
01:25:01,869 --> 01:25:05,088
What a career-defining victory
this would be

1260
01:25:05,121 --> 01:25:07,891
for the young upstart who dominated NXT.

1261
01:25:07,925 --> 01:25:09,675
[Tessitore] Is he looking
for Nothing But Net?

1262
01:25:09,710 --> 01:25:12,746
Is he going for it?
Randy gets out of the way.

1263
01:25:12,779 --> 01:25:14,531
[Barrett] Yeah, talk about great movers.

1264
01:25:15,782 --> 01:25:19,186
Randy Orton wrote the book on great move…

1265
01:25:19,219 --> 01:25:21,922
-Boom!
-[Tessitore] Oh, my. Hayes!

1266
01:25:23,639 --> 01:25:24,675
Into the cover.

1267
01:25:27,210 --> 01:25:29,346
[Barrett] Brilliant there
from Carmelo Hayes,

1268
01:25:29,379 --> 01:25:33,133
you simply cannot defend
yourself against something you can't see,

1269
01:25:33,166 --> 01:25:38,371
especially from an angle you've never
been connected with on a DDT before.

1270
01:25:38,405 --> 01:25:40,791
[crowd chanting]

1271
01:25:44,561 --> 01:25:48,098
And Orton does not look right at all.
Let's not forget that neck injury he had

1272
01:25:48,130 --> 01:25:51,852
at the hands of Kevin Owens.
That DDT may have…

1273
01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:55,989
[Tessitore] Big right hand comes in
as Hayes was trying to put himself

1274
01:25:56,023 --> 01:25:57,157
in a position again.

1275
01:25:57,641 --> 01:25:59,343
Triggering something in the neck of Orton

1276
01:25:59,376 --> 01:26:01,894
who looks, for now at least,
to have recovered,

1277
01:26:01,929 --> 01:26:03,547
but it's something to keep an eye on.

1278
01:26:04,081 --> 01:26:05,299
We're getting a banger.

1279
01:26:06,083 --> 01:26:10,804
[Tessitore] And this crowd is with them
every step of the way.

1280
01:26:12,956 --> 01:26:16,610
Barcelona can't get enough of The Viper,

1281
01:26:16,643 --> 01:26:18,128
The Legend Killer,

1282
01:26:18,161 --> 01:26:20,112
the return of Randy Orton.

1283
01:26:21,565 --> 01:26:25,035
A move right out of his father's playbook.

1284
01:26:25,068 --> 01:26:30,490
Cowboy Bob Orton, has done massive damage
to the spine of many superstars,

1285
01:26:30,523 --> 01:26:34,061
-the latest victim, Carmelo Hayes.
-[crowd chanting] RKO!

1286
01:26:34,094 --> 01:26:36,346
And I think we all know
what's coming next.

1287
01:26:38,014 --> 01:26:41,401
[Tessitore] So does all of Spain,
and here it comes.

1288
01:26:49,876 --> 01:26:51,128
Hayes denies it.

1289
01:26:52,612 --> 01:26:55,581
Was looking for First 48,
gets tossed back.

1290
01:26:56,450 --> 01:26:59,268
Denies that attempt as well
and delivers it.

1291
01:27:00,571 --> 01:27:01,572
Carmelo Hayes…

1292
01:27:01,605 --> 01:27:03,790
Oh, out of nowhere!

1293
01:27:03,824 --> 01:27:06,610
Absolutely out of nowhere.

1294
01:27:06,643 --> 01:27:09,279
RKO.

1295
01:27:09,313 --> 01:27:12,199
[crowd counting, in Spanish]

1296
01:27:12,232 --> 01:27:15,235
-[bell rings]
-Uno, dos, tres indeed.

1297
01:27:16,169 --> 01:27:18,655
[Garcia] Here is your winner,

1298
01:27:18,688 --> 01:27:22,142
Randy Orton!

1299
01:27:22,175 --> 01:27:25,812
[Barrett] And did you see
Lamine Yamal's face,

1300
01:27:25,846 --> 01:27:32,818
I think young Lamine has a favorite
wrestler in the form of Randy Orton.

1301
01:27:32,853 --> 01:27:35,138
♪ All designed to keep you safe… ♪

1302
01:27:35,172 --> 01:27:37,307
[Tessitore] The best of Barcelona,

1303
01:27:38,358 --> 01:27:42,795
FC Barcelona ringside
to watch one of the best to ever do it.

1304
01:27:42,829 --> 01:27:46,867
[Barrett] That must have felt better
than beating Real Madrid.

1305
01:27:47,617 --> 01:27:50,754
[Tessitore] And he reaches out his hand
for the young up-and-c…

1306
01:27:50,786 --> 01:27:52,572
-[Barrett laughs]
-No way.

1307
01:27:52,606 --> 01:27:55,976
Oh! That's what you get, Melo.

1308
01:27:57,294 --> 01:27:59,763
You may have just missed right there.

1309
01:28:00,614 --> 01:28:02,065
[Barrett] Understandably.

1310
01:28:03,333 --> 01:28:08,138
Melo's brain a little scramble
at the end there, one final error for him.

1311
01:28:08,822 --> 01:28:10,773
[Tessitore] You know,
just when we were seeing

1312
01:28:10,807 --> 01:28:14,111
a different version of Randy Orton.

1313
01:28:14,143 --> 01:28:18,398
A more compassionate version of Randy
Orton with a moment of sportsmanship,

1314
01:28:18,432 --> 01:28:20,367
-And now he's snapping.
-[Barrett] Oh, God, Joe!

1315
01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:21,802
He's gonna punt him.

1316
01:28:21,835 --> 01:28:25,405
He's gonna punt Carmelo Hayes
into the sky of…

1317
01:28:26,740 --> 01:28:28,976
-[Barrett] It's Kevin Owens!
-[Tessitore] Kevin Owens!

1318
01:28:29,543 --> 01:28:33,179
Kevin Owens just pulled
Carmelo Hayes out of the ring.

1319
01:28:33,679 --> 01:28:37,501
The first time we've seen KO
since the Elimination Chamber

1320
01:28:37,534 --> 01:28:39,887
-when he got mugged up by Randy Orton.
-[Tessitore] Oh, and he just…

1321
01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:44,074
Oh, and he sent Randy Orton's back
into the steel post.

1322
01:28:44,608 --> 01:28:47,143
[Barrett] Scampering away for dear life.

1323
01:28:47,177 --> 01:28:48,911
This one ain't over KO.

1324
01:28:49,830 --> 01:28:51,831
[Tessitore] Now let's get you
to what happened

1325
01:28:51,865 --> 01:28:57,737
earlier tonight on Friday Night SmackDown
with Braun Strowman and Jacob Fatu.

1326
01:28:58,672 --> 01:29:00,807
Look at these two going at it again.

1327
01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:04,311
This was in the midst
of a six-man Tag Team match, Wade.

1328
01:29:05,027 --> 01:29:07,781
[Barrett] Yeah, absolute hell broke loose.

1329
01:29:07,813 --> 01:29:12,186
And then Jacob Fatu after he'd already
caused enough damage,

1330
01:29:12,219 --> 01:29:15,706
came for one final piece of the puzzle,

1331
01:29:15,739 --> 01:29:19,259
completely flattening
our timekeeper's area

1332
01:29:19,293 --> 01:29:21,894
and indeed the monster Braun Strowman.

1333
01:29:21,929 --> 01:29:24,764
[Tessitore] Fatu got the last laugh
and a lot of damage done.

1334
01:29:25,849 --> 01:29:28,068
Let's go, Jake. Take, take him out.
He's not on your level.

1335
01:29:28,101 --> 01:29:29,436
Take him out.

1336
01:29:29,469 --> 01:29:31,038
Hey, you know what time it is.

1337
01:29:31,071 --> 01:29:32,606
Run the play.

1338
01:29:33,523 --> 01:29:34,775
-Yeah!
-Yeah!

1339
01:29:34,808 --> 01:29:36,910
All right bro, let's keep it 100.

1340
01:29:36,943 --> 01:29:39,179
Thought you really think
you could get with me, huh?

1341
01:29:39,213 --> 01:29:40,864
You really think you could touch this?

1342
01:29:40,898 --> 01:29:41,982
Man, hell no.

1343
01:29:42,014 --> 01:29:44,818
Hey, let me double back on this again.

1344
01:29:44,852 --> 01:29:49,005
Remember, lie from coast to coast,
lie from post to post.

1345
01:29:49,039 --> 01:29:51,491
Oh, bro, I'm about to dog walk your ass.

1346
01:29:51,525 --> 01:29:52,843
So, next week…

1347
01:29:52,876 --> 01:29:57,397
next week, me and you, Braun,
we're about to run this thing back.

1348
01:29:57,431 --> 01:29:58,665
Y'know what I mean?

1349
01:29:58,699 --> 01:30:01,317
[all] Fatu!

1350
01:30:03,704 --> 01:30:04,987
["Prepare to Fight" playing]

1351
01:30:05,022 --> 01:30:08,008
-[Barrett] I wouldn't turn up next week.
-[Tessitore] He brings it.

1352
01:30:08,041 --> 01:30:09,576
[Barrett] If he was
yelling at me like that,

1353
01:30:09,610 --> 01:30:11,862
there's no way I'd ever get on the plane.

1354
01:30:13,480 --> 01:30:15,465
[Tessitore] Gunther, the World
Heavyweight Champion,

1355
01:30:15,499 --> 01:30:17,784
he's reigned now for 223 days.

1356
01:30:21,405 --> 01:30:24,041
[Garcia] Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome

1357
01:30:24,074 --> 01:30:29,463
the World Heavyweight Champion,
The Ring General,

1358
01:30:29,496 --> 01:30:32,331
Gunther!

1359
01:30:32,833 --> 01:30:36,452
[Tessitore] Five title defenses deep.
We'll hear from The Ring General next.

1360
01:31:00,259 --> 01:31:02,429
["Prepare to Fight" playing]

1361
01:31:03,847 --> 01:31:05,632
[Tessitore] The Ring General, Gunther.

1362
01:31:45,054 --> 01:31:51,644
The road to WrestleMania in Europe
starts tonight here in Barcelona.

1363
01:31:51,678 --> 01:31:53,947
[crowd cheering]

1364
01:31:54,982 --> 01:31:57,768
And as the greatest
European wrestler of all time.

1365
01:31:57,800 --> 01:31:59,902
I just had to be here.

1366
01:31:59,937 --> 01:32:04,491
Just one regret.
I wish we would be in Madrid instead.

1367
01:32:04,525 --> 01:32:06,643
[crowd booing]

1368
01:32:10,731 --> 01:32:12,416
Hala Madrid.

1369
01:32:15,536 --> 01:32:16,536
Anyway,

1370
01:32:17,554 --> 01:32:21,425
the real reason I'm here
is I wanna prove a point

1371
01:32:21,458 --> 01:32:25,144
because all of you, you love Jey Uso.

1372
01:32:27,264 --> 01:32:31,552
Because he's wasting his time
dancing around amongst you,

1373
01:32:31,585 --> 01:32:35,755
waving his hands like an idiot
just to entertain you,

1374
01:32:35,789 --> 01:32:39,425
but once this bell rings,
there's no substance to it.

1375
01:32:39,459 --> 01:32:42,362
It doesn't mean a damn thing.

1376
01:32:45,616 --> 01:32:46,950
So I heard…

1377
01:32:48,085 --> 01:32:50,304
I heard there's a kid.

1378
01:32:54,007 --> 01:32:57,126
They call him the best
wrestler all of Spain.

1379
01:32:59,012 --> 01:33:03,934
One of the most promising talents
in WWE right now.

1380

[crowd cheering]

1381
01:33:05,402 --> 01:33:09,056
You all love him,
but I'm gonna prove right now

1382
01:33:09,089 --> 01:33:13,110
that this doesn't mean a damn thing.

1383
01:33:13,143 --> 01:33:16,163
[crowd booing]

1384
01:33:16,196 --> 01:33:17,514
So ladies and gentlemen.

1385
01:33:18,264 --> 01:33:23,402
Here he is, your national hero, Axiom.

1386
01:33:23,437 --> 01:33:25,706
[crowd cheering]

1387
01:33:25,739 --> 01:33:28,108
-["Strike Force" playing]
-[Tessitore] Wow.

1388
01:33:37,934 --> 01:33:42,539
[Barrett] Well this is one half of
the NXT Tag Team Champions.

1389
01:33:46,977 --> 01:33:47,978
[bell rings]

1390
01:33:48,010 --> 01:33:51,365
[Garcia] The following contest is
scheduled for one fall.

1391
01:33:51,398 --> 01:33:53,066
Making his way to the ring,

1392
01:33:53,099 --> 01:33:58,038
he is one half of
the NXT Tag Team Champions…

1393
01:33:58,071 --> 01:34:01,625
[speaking Spanish]

1394
01:34:01,657 --> 01:34:04,411
…Axiom!

1395
01:34:04,443 --> 01:34:07,548
[Tessitore] Lilian Garcia herself,
who grew up in Spain.

1396
01:34:07,581 --> 01:34:10,233
Yes, Axiom who grew up here in Spain,

1397
01:34:10,267 --> 01:34:15,522
the first native Spaniard to be signed
by WWE when he started his career

1398
01:34:15,556 --> 01:34:21,094
in Spain's White Wolf Wrestling Promotion
and now gets this magical moment.

1399
01:34:21,128 --> 01:34:22,963
[Barrett] Yeah, this is a man
who has conquered

1400
01:34:22,996 --> 01:34:27,901
pretty much every wrestling league he's
been involved in thus far,

1401
01:34:27,934 --> 01:34:30,404
consistently making waves in NXT

1402
01:34:30,437 --> 01:34:35,309
including competing against the Hardy Boyz

1403
01:34:35,342 --> 01:34:40,230
at NXT Roadblock this past week
where he was every inch their equal,

1404
01:34:40,264 --> 01:34:45,485
but what a test this is
in Singles action for the Spaniard, Axiom.

1405
01:34:45,518 --> 01:34:50,072
[Tessitore] By the way, that was awesome
at the theater at Madison Square Garden.

1406
01:34:50,107 --> 01:34:51,642
NXT Roadblock.

1407
01:34:52,925 --> 01:34:57,614
Vic Joseph and Corey Graves and Booker T
were going out of their mind

1408
01:34:57,648 --> 01:35:02,986
with the energy there as Axiom was
getting after it, as you mentioned,

1409
01:35:03,654 --> 01:35:04,987
against the Hardys.

1410
01:35:05,539 --> 01:35:08,492
[Barrett] Everyone wants to compete
in front of their home country fans.

1411
01:35:08,525 --> 01:35:13,330
I'm not surprised Axiom heads straight out
of it, but I don't know if this is wise.

1412
01:35:13,362 --> 01:35:18,018
You've gotta pick your moments
in taking on Gunther.

1413
01:35:18,050 --> 01:35:21,338
Well, there's simply never a good moment.

1414
01:35:21,371 --> 01:35:24,491
[Tessitore] Of course, Gunther himself,
was in New York City this week as well,

1415
01:35:24,525 --> 01:35:29,880
fresh off of that visit with the surprise
attack on Jey Uso after Jey's match,

1416
01:35:29,913 --> 01:35:33,901
-put him out in a sleeper hold.
-[crowd chanting]

1417
01:35:33,933 --> 01:35:37,955
Soccer chants have started here
as Gunther goes for the big chop.

1418
01:35:38,639 --> 01:35:41,758
Oh, Axiom's actually
a hell of a soccer player.

1419
01:35:41,791 --> 01:35:47,380
He supports Barcelona, but he was on the
books of Real Madrid when he was younger,

1420
01:35:47,414 --> 01:35:50,634
training under Zinedine Zidane.

1421
01:35:51,384 --> 01:35:55,339
[Tessitore] I mean the reaction
from this crowd here in Barcelona…

1422
01:35:55,371 --> 01:36:00,009
Man, I gotta tell you,
these Euro shows are just flat out events.

1423
01:36:02,228 --> 01:36:03,947
[Barrett] This is like a
Champions League thing.

1424
01:36:03,981 --> 01:36:04,982
[Tessitore] Honestly.

1425
01:36:05,014 --> 01:36:07,651
[Barrett] Gunther is a massive
Bayern Munich fan.

1426
01:36:08,067 --> 01:36:12,606
[Tessitore] Every time WWE comes to
Europe, and this is going to be a stretch…

1427
01:36:12,639 --> 01:36:14,090
-[Barrett] Oh, nice!
-[Tessitore] Oh!

1428
01:36:14,124 --> 01:36:15,325
He locks them up.

1429
01:36:15,358 --> 01:36:16,576
Look at Gunther's face!

1430
01:36:16,610 --> 01:36:18,661
[Barrett] Just when Gunther
was going for that big chop,

1431
01:36:18,695 --> 01:36:21,380
he may have taken Axiom too lightly here.

1432
01:36:24,750 --> 01:36:26,570
A big kick by Axiom.

1433
01:36:28,138 --> 01:36:31,808
Well this is much like Charlotte Flair
earlier tonight taking B-Fab…

1434
01:36:31,842 --> 01:36:34,244
-[Tessitore] Oh, my!
-[Barrett] All right, game changer.

1435
01:36:34,277 --> 01:36:37,798
Can you believe that jump
by The Ring General?

1436
01:36:42,286 --> 01:36:44,036
[Tessitore] Gunther in action
against Axiom.

1437
01:36:44,071 --> 01:36:49,076
Gunther, who has vowed to make these weeks
leading up to WrestleMania 41,

1438
01:36:49,108 --> 01:36:52,396
a living hell for Jey Uso,
and now that's what he's doing

1439
01:36:53,330 --> 01:36:55,549
-with Axiom.
-[Barrett] Trying to rip the mask

1440
01:36:55,581 --> 01:36:58,802
of the luchador,
but that was a ligament shredder

1441
01:36:58,835 --> 01:37:01,138
[Tessitore] And then to the back of
the leg from Axiom

1442
01:37:01,170 --> 01:37:03,389
who all of a sudden has some hope.

1443
01:37:03,423 --> 01:37:07,477
Well, Gunther stopped trying to win the
match and simply tried to humiliate Axiom.

1444
01:37:07,510 --> 01:37:09,446
[Tessitore] This is where
he's at its best,

1445
01:37:09,478 --> 01:37:11,965
-off the top rope from Axiom.
-[Barrett] And it's coming back

1446
01:37:11,999 --> 01:37:15,686
to bite the World Heavyweight Champion.

1447
01:37:16,103 --> 01:37:18,804
Look at this connection,
those high octane moves

1448
01:37:19,373 --> 01:37:23,326
of Axiom that has taken him
to the top in NXT.

1449
01:37:23,360 --> 01:37:26,830
He's got a huge future
on Raw or SmackDown.

1450
01:37:27,380 --> 01:37:29,366
But wow, what a victory this would be.

1451
01:37:30,099 --> 01:37:34,154
In the lead up to WrestleMania,
how to put yourself on the map.

1452
01:37:34,188 --> 01:37:36,773
[Tessitore] And he can deliver some
incredible moments, he did that.

1453
01:37:37,574 --> 01:37:39,726
With that unsuccessful challenge
against the Hardy Boys

1454
01:37:39,759 --> 01:37:44,932
for the TNA World Tag Team Championships,
with that collaboration that WWE is doing,

1455
01:37:44,965 --> 01:37:48,134
he had a top rope springboard moonsault
to the floor on the Hardys

1456
01:37:48,168 --> 01:37:50,420
outside the ring in New York this week.

1457
01:37:52,923 --> 01:37:57,728
And now Gunther, showing you the power,
the strength, the skill.

1458
01:37:57,760 --> 01:38:01,063
Axiom, able to fight
out of and roll into it.

1459
01:38:01,098 --> 01:38:02,733
Nearly coming up.

1460
01:38:02,766 --> 01:38:05,936
Upset sinking. Brings the knee.

1461
01:38:05,969 --> 01:38:09,940
[Barrett] Straight to the jaw of Gunther
who is completely rocked.

1462
01:38:10,507 --> 01:38:12,942
[Tessitore] Oh! My, oh, my!

1463
01:38:12,976 --> 01:38:15,996
[Barrett] The flying pterodactyl
connected to the chest.

1464
01:38:16,029 --> 01:38:19,516
[Tessitore] And then the Powerbomb,
the brutality of Gunther.

1465
01:38:19,550 --> 01:38:21,552
-[Barrett] Kick out?
-[Tessitore] What a kick out

1466
01:38:21,585 --> 01:38:23,402
off the Powerbomb!

1467
01:38:25,304 --> 01:38:27,040
How? How Wade?

1468
01:38:27,074 --> 01:38:28,825
[Barrett] This crowd cannot believe it.

1469
01:38:28,858 --> 01:38:34,748
How many people have we seen
come to pin with that tightly step pin,

1470
01:38:34,781 --> 01:38:40,353
and that, to answer your question
Joe Tess, is the advantage of a partisan

1471
01:38:40,387 --> 01:38:43,257
home crowd pulling you through.

1472
01:38:43,290 --> 01:38:50,097
[Tessitore] Spain's native son rallying
here coming up showing will and heart.

1473
01:38:50,831 --> 01:38:54,116
Able to kick out out of that powerbomb
that Gunther delivered.

1474
01:38:54,151 --> 01:38:57,654
[Barrett] I mean this match should've been
long gone and now perhaps attempting

1475
01:38:57,688 --> 01:39:02,226
a Spanish fly was Axiom,
denied by Gunther.

1476
01:39:03,343 --> 01:39:05,094
Maybe get a take-two on this.

1477
01:39:05,128 --> 01:39:09,215
[Tessitore] Roof will come off this place
if he can hit the Spanish Fly on Gunther.

1478
01:39:12,286 --> 01:39:14,554
-[Barrett] Gunther just too strong.
-[Tessitore] Oh, no…

1479
01:39:15,072 --> 01:39:17,107
-[Barrett] What?
-[crowd cheering]

1480
01:39:17,139 --> 01:39:19,692
[Tessitore] Axiom finds a way.

1481
01:39:19,726 --> 01:39:21,094
[Barrett] Top rope hurricanrana.

1482
01:39:21,628 --> 01:39:24,164
[Tessitore] Do you believe?

1483
01:39:24,197 --> 01:39:26,200
-[crowd counting]
-Hooks the leg!

1484
01:39:27,567 --> 01:39:31,255
Golden Ratio kicked out by Gunther.

1485
01:39:31,288 --> 01:39:36,844
That is a move that has
put away everyone in NXT.

1486
01:39:37,427 --> 01:39:41,999
But this is a different level,
this is the World Heavyweight Champion.

1487
01:39:42,032 --> 01:39:46,335
Bang to the jaw, saliva flying out of
the mouth of the champ,

1488
01:39:46,370 --> 01:39:50,389
but there is still enough
in the tank to kick out.

1489
01:39:50,424 --> 01:39:53,259
[Tessitore] That Golden Ratio,
the way he flies in with that kick,

1490
01:39:53,293 --> 01:39:56,797
all the momentum of
that striking power that's delivered.

1491
01:39:56,830 --> 01:40:01,018
[Barrett] Well this match could have ended
five times by now in both directions,

1492
01:40:01,050 --> 01:40:02,451
but we've got to get a winner.

1493
01:40:08,108 --> 01:40:11,995
And right now your money
has to be on the hometown man.

1494
01:40:12,029 --> 01:40:16,465
[Tessitore] One of the great surprises
for this massive crowd here in Barcelona,

1495
01:40:16,950 --> 01:40:18,751
this level of match

1496
01:40:19,503 --> 01:40:25,041
from the Spaniard, Axiom,
the first wrestler from Spain

1497
01:40:25,075 --> 01:40:29,545
to be signed by WWE and he's putting
on a heck of a show,

1498
01:40:29,580 --> 01:40:33,500
but now, Gunther again with the Powerbomb.

1499
01:40:33,534 --> 01:40:36,036
-[Barrett] Show's over, guys.
-[Tessitore] Oh, no.

1500
01:40:36,068 --> 01:40:41,791
Oh, my. He just ruined 'em
and another's coming his way.

1501
01:40:43,994 --> 01:40:45,529
That's gotta be it.

1502
01:40:46,830 --> 01:40:48,298
-[Barrett sighs]
-[bell rings]

1503
01:40:50,233 --> 01:40:52,318
[Garcia] Here is your winner,

1504
01:40:52,352 --> 01:40:54,972
the World Heavyweight Champion,

1505
01:40:55,005 --> 01:40:58,442
the Ring General, Gunther.

1506
01:40:59,142 --> 01:41:02,478
[Barrett] While Axiom had
no right whatsoever

1507
01:41:02,513 --> 01:41:07,750
putting in that kind of performance
against arguably the best on the planet,

1508
01:41:07,784 --> 01:41:10,254
the World Heavyweight Champion Gunther.

1509
01:41:10,286 --> 01:41:13,257
And there were several occasions
he could have stolen.

1510
01:41:13,290 --> 01:41:14,724
[Tessitore] Oh!

1511
01:41:14,758 --> 01:41:16,793
He's got him in the sleeper.

1512
01:41:17,561 --> 01:41:24,166
This is how he put out Jey Uso this week
and now he's putting it on Spain's Axiom,

1513
01:41:24,201 --> 01:41:28,388
who put on such a spirited,
big-hearted effort.

1514
01:41:29,156 --> 01:41:30,824
The fun's over now, guys.

1515
01:41:30,858 --> 01:41:33,826
This is Gunther getting in
WrestleMania mode.

1516
01:41:35,579 --> 01:41:39,132
[Tessitore] Gunther, who this week,
was the focus of a massive feature

1517
01:41:39,166 --> 01:41:42,318
in Sports Illustrated
Germany edition this week.

1518
01:41:43,135 --> 01:41:46,523
Who's closing in
on 36 days of WrestleMania.

1519
01:41:46,557 --> 01:41:47,657
[crowd booing]

1520
01:41:47,691 --> 01:41:52,996
With Jey Uso, the Royal Rumble winner,
who's been tormenting everybody

1521
01:41:53,030 --> 01:41:54,781
week after week.

1522
01:41:56,433 --> 01:41:59,486
[Barrett] There it is,
the date with destiny with Jey Uso,

1523
01:41:59,519 --> 01:42:03,190
WrestleMania, 41
for the World Heavyweight Championship.

1524
01:42:03,223 --> 01:42:06,026
We're gonna see a lot of these two
over the next few weeks.

1525
01:42:06,058 --> 01:42:10,781
I, personally, cannot wait to see more of
Axiom once they scrape him off the mat.

1526
01:42:19,706 --> 01:42:21,491
[Tessitore] All week long
we've been wondering about

1527
01:42:21,525 --> 01:42:24,545
everything that happened
Monday night at Madison Square Garden.

1528
01:42:24,577 --> 01:42:27,364
We're gonna get some answers.
Roman Reigns returned.

1529
01:42:27,397 --> 01:42:30,634
The Wise Man was in a unique
position in that steel cage.

1530
01:42:30,666 --> 01:42:34,521
It's Paul Heyman joining us live next.

1531
01:42:41,628 --> 01:42:47,233
[Cole] Madison Square Garden sold out
tonight for yet another epic main event.

1532
01:42:47,267 --> 01:42:51,321
Seth Rollins versus CM Punk
inside a steel cage.

1533
01:42:51,355 --> 01:42:56,527
[Rollins] There is nobody
on this planet better than me.

1534
01:42:56,559 --> 01:43:01,548
The stakes are much too high.
The pressure is on.

1535
01:43:01,581 --> 01:43:03,901
[crowd chanting] CM Punk!

1536
01:43:05,035 --> 01:43:06,436
[McAfee] And here we go.

1537
01:43:06,469 --> 01:43:09,423
[Cole] This is not gonna be pretty,
far from it.

1538
01:43:09,456 --> 01:43:12,593
You win via pinfall, submission,
or escape from the cage

1539
01:43:12,625 --> 01:43:15,344
with both feet touching the floor.

1540
01:43:20,601 --> 01:43:22,469
Seth Rollins has made his plans clear.

1541
01:43:22,501 --> 01:43:26,723
He's obsessed with making sure
CM Punk doesn't make it to WrestleMania.

1542
01:43:26,757 --> 01:43:29,108
For CM Punk, it's about payback.

1543
01:43:31,777 --> 01:43:35,415
Punk going to the top of the cage.
Is Punk gonna try to escape here?

1544
01:43:41,722 --> 01:43:44,241
Punk just trying somehow to hang on.

1545
01:43:50,447 --> 01:43:53,584
[McAfee] How much more
do these two men have?

1546
01:43:53,616 --> 01:43:56,402
[Cole] These two
just want to maim each other.

1547
01:43:59,673 --> 01:44:00,907
Here's the cover.

1548
01:44:06,947 --> 01:44:10,017
Stomp! Punk has stole Rollins' move.

1549
01:44:13,754 --> 01:44:15,906
GTS by Rollins to CM Punk!

1550
01:44:17,124 --> 01:44:19,226
And Rollins with a Stomp!

1551
01:44:20,794 --> 01:44:22,596
Punk kicked out again!

1552
01:44:25,632 --> 01:44:27,416
Super Stomp!

1553
01:44:32,556 --> 01:44:36,742
-Oh, my God, Roman Reigns!
-[McAfee] Our Tribal Chief!

1554
01:44:38,010 --> 01:44:42,449
[Cole] Well, Rollins won the match because
Reigns dragged him out to the floor.

1555
01:44:43,150 --> 01:44:45,501
This is Roman Reigns
remembering the Rumble,

1556
01:44:45,536 --> 01:44:47,504
remembering what Rollins did to him.

1557
01:44:47,538 --> 01:44:49,940
[crowd chanting] OTC! OTC!

1558
01:44:52,192 --> 01:44:53,192
[Cole] Stomp!

1559
01:44:53,727 --> 01:44:56,547
The OTC is out for blood.

1560
01:44:57,264 --> 01:45:00,032
Oh, I'm gonna end it all for you now!

1561
01:45:03,036 --> 01:45:06,540
[McAfee] Roman was about to end it
for Seth Freakin' Rollins.

1562
01:45:18,251 --> 01:45:20,704
[Cole] And Roman Reigns has lost it.

1563
01:45:22,923 --> 01:45:24,241
Spear to Punk.

1564
01:45:25,259 --> 01:45:27,210
[McAfee] Roman Reigns is back!

1565
01:45:35,786 --> 01:45:39,706
Ladies and gentlemen, my name is…

1566
01:45:39,740 --> 01:45:41,959
-Paul Heyman.
-[crowd] Paul Heyman!

1567
01:45:41,991 --> 01:45:47,097
Tonight I'm gonna hype you on two things

1568
01:45:47,130 --> 01:45:53,587
and don't worry, much like the career
prospects of a certain architect,

1569
01:45:53,620 --> 01:45:55,289
a visionary,

1570
01:45:55,322 --> 01:46:00,059
I'll keep this short and sweet.

1571
01:46:00,093 --> 01:46:02,980
Today all over the world

1572
01:46:03,013 --> 01:46:08,602
is officially Roman Reigns Day.

1573
01:46:10,219 --> 01:46:15,375
It's Roman Reigns Day
because today is the release

1574
01:46:15,409 --> 01:46:21,215
of the WWE 2K25 video game.

1575
01:46:21,999 --> 01:46:28,205
I'm sure everyone here tonight
will go home and play the video game.

1576
01:46:28,237 --> 01:46:33,677
I'm sure everyone at home
is going to play the video game,

1577
01:46:33,710 --> 01:46:37,931
but please wait till SmackDown is over.

1578
01:46:37,965 --> 01:46:44,004
We like to keep our ratings high,
especially during my segments.

1579
01:46:48,025 --> 01:46:52,663
Item number two.

1580
01:46:52,696 --> 01:46:57,401
Apparently there are some people
who have a problem

1581
01:46:57,433 --> 01:47:02,105
with the fact that it's Roman Reigns Day

1582
01:47:02,139 --> 01:47:08,996
or that Roman Reigns is
on the cover of the WWE 2K25 video game.

1583
01:47:10,080 --> 01:47:16,587
One of these people,
when it comes to being my friend,

1584
01:47:17,271 --> 01:47:20,874
is the best in the world.

1585
01:47:20,907 --> 01:47:23,876
CM Punk.

1586
01:47:26,330 --> 01:47:28,949
[crowd chanting] CM Punk!

1587
01:47:33,871 --> 01:47:38,308
Unfortunately, it's not CM Punk Day,

1588
01:47:38,342 --> 01:47:42,196
it's Roman Reigns Day,

1589
01:47:42,228 --> 01:47:47,968
and it sure as hell not,
nor will it ever will be

1590
01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:53,290
Seth Freakin' Rollins Day.

1591
01:47:58,745 --> 01:48:02,132
[crowd singing "The Vision"]

1592
01:48:07,554 --> 01:48:13,093
All due respect,
I hate that freaking song.

1593
01:48:16,179 --> 01:48:18,699
Now if anybody has a fact,

1594
01:48:18,732 --> 01:48:21,985
if anybody has a problem with the fact

1595
01:48:22,018 --> 01:48:24,271
that I hate that freaking song

1596
01:48:24,304 --> 01:48:27,191
or that it's Roman Reigns Day

1597
01:48:27,224 --> 01:48:34,097
or that Roman Reigns is on the cover
of the WWE 2K25 video game,

1598
01:48:34,130 --> 01:48:39,937
then you can say it straight
to the face of your tribal chief

1599
01:48:39,969 --> 01:48:43,790
in Bologna, Italy because next week.

1600
01:48:43,840 --> 01:48:46,610
-Your tribal chief will be…
-[crowd booing]

1601
01:48:52,266 --> 01:48:54,750
Hey, whoa, whoa, don't boo.

1602
01:48:54,785 --> 01:48:59,456
All you have to do is buy
a plane ticket on CheapO Airlines

1603
01:48:59,489 --> 01:49:01,657
and fly over to Bologna.

1604
01:49:04,678 --> 01:49:09,700
It's not like Mussolini is sitting there
waiting not to let you through the border.

1605
01:49:11,300 --> 01:49:16,857
Next week when Roman Reigns appears
live on SmackDown,

1606
01:49:16,889 --> 01:49:21,394
you can say anything you want
straight to his face

1607
01:49:21,428 --> 01:49:28,384
and that's not a prediction,
that's a spoiler.

1608
01:49:29,753 --> 01:49:33,956
[Tessitore] Well, the Heyman European
edition does not disappoint, Wade.

1609
01:49:34,607 --> 01:49:35,709
Look, there's two things.

1610
01:49:35,741 --> 01:49:40,047
I, just like everyone else,
can't wait to play WWE 2K25.

1611
01:49:40,080 --> 01:49:45,184
I also can't wait to find out
what is the nature of the favor

1612
01:49:45,219 --> 01:49:47,638
-that Paul Heyman owes CM Punk.
-Yes.

1613
01:49:47,670 --> 01:49:48,972
That's what I want to know.

1614
01:49:49,005 --> 01:49:50,991
Uh, listen, he mentioned CheapO Airlines.

1615
01:49:51,023 --> 01:49:54,361
You can fly all over Europe,
six straight TV shows and next week

1616
01:49:54,393 --> 01:49:59,148
expect a roaring crowd in
Emilio Romano's best city, Bologna.

1617
01:49:59,183 --> 01:50:01,585
Get your mortadella
and your tortellini in brodo…

1618
01:50:01,617 --> 01:50:04,471
[speaking Italian]

1619
01:50:05,489 --> 01:50:07,324
Friday Night SmackDown in Bologna.

1620
01:50:07,357 --> 01:50:10,443
-And you know who's gonna be there.
-We get it. That's your home country.

1621
01:50:10,477 --> 01:50:14,380
[Barrett] Can't wait to. Well, fresh off
the back of those words from the Wiseman,

1622
01:50:14,414 --> 01:50:19,402
it's official. The OTC Roman Reigns
will be live next week on SmackDown

1623
01:50:19,436 --> 01:50:20,920
from Bologna, Italy.

1624
01:50:20,954 --> 01:50:22,889
[Tessitore] And how about this?

1625
01:50:23,991 --> 01:50:26,593
Jade Cargill's first match
since making her return,

1626
01:50:26,626 --> 01:50:28,629
and it comes against Liv Morgan,

1627
01:50:28,661 --> 01:50:31,130
who of course has now captured
the Tag Team Championship.

1628
01:50:31,164 --> 01:50:32,633
Jade and her.

1629
01:50:32,665 --> 01:50:36,486
[Barrett] Zelina Vega wants US title gold,
but to get there,

1630
01:50:36,519 --> 01:50:40,407
she needs to get through
The Green Regime first.

1631
01:50:40,440 --> 01:50:42,142
Up first, Piper Niven.

1632
01:50:42,175 --> 01:50:44,777
-Next week on SmackDown,
-[Tessitore] Bologna is a city

1633
01:50:44,811 --> 01:50:46,179
that loves a big porchetta,

1634
01:50:46,213 --> 01:50:50,584
and we've got a serious, serious,
meaty match that fits that.

1635
01:50:50,616 --> 01:50:53,987
Strowman, Fatu,
continue their heated feud.

1636
01:50:54,021 --> 01:50:58,775
That is next Friday Night SmackDown
from Italy.

1637
01:51:01,844 --> 01:51:03,580
Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

1638
01:51:06,833 --> 01:51:08,501
Let's go, baby. Let's go.

1639
01:51:08,535 --> 01:51:09,536
Let's go.

1640
01:51:15,558 --> 01:51:17,710
-You got a problem?
-Problem?

1641
01:51:17,744 --> 01:51:19,679
Problema? No. There's no problem.

1642
01:51:19,713 --> 01:51:22,933
What made you think we
would have a problem with you?

1643
01:51:22,965 --> 01:51:26,670
No, no, no, we're here to wish you luck
in your title match.

1644
01:51:26,702 --> 01:51:27,704
I hope you win.

1645
01:51:28,272 --> 01:51:29,723
Because when you do,

1646
01:51:30,624 --> 01:51:33,610
We'd love nothing more
than to take the titles off of you.

1647
01:51:33,643 --> 01:51:34,710
So, like I said…

1648
01:51:35,696 --> 01:51:39,383
[speaking Spanish]

1649
01:51:41,401 --> 01:51:43,570
[laughs]

1650
01:51:43,603 --> 01:51:46,507
[laughs mockingly]

1651
01:51:50,393 --> 01:51:53,179
-Hey, Barcelona!
-[crowd cheering]

1652
01:51:53,914 --> 01:51:57,384
Hey, you already know what it is. [trills]

1653
01:51:57,834 --> 01:52:01,420
It's your illustrious Street Profits,
and for the last four years,

1654
01:52:01,455 --> 01:52:02,889
you know what's mighty funny, Dawks?

1655
01:52:02,923 --> 01:52:07,376
That's all we've been hearing, noise.
But guess what?

1656
01:52:07,411 --> 01:52:11,298
Tonight we put all the critics to sleep
and we wake everybody else up.

1657
01:52:11,331 --> 01:52:12,432
Talk to them, Dawks.

1658
01:52:12,465 --> 01:52:17,371
DIY, tonight is not the time for talking,
tonight we walk out.

1659
01:52:17,404 --> 01:52:22,276
It's your new WWE Tag Team Champions
because the Street Profits are up

1660
01:52:22,308 --> 01:52:24,795
-and we want the smoke!
-[crowd] And we want the smoke!

1661
01:52:24,827 --> 01:52:25,963
Let's go!

1662
01:52:25,996 --> 01:52:28,531
["Bring the Swag" playing]

1663
01:52:37,674 --> 01:52:40,009
♪ I bring the swag like nobody can… ♪

1664
01:52:40,059 --> 01:52:41,311
[bell rings]

1665
01:52:41,344 --> 01:52:44,781
[Garcia] The following Tag Team contest
is scheduled for one fall,

1666
01:52:44,815 --> 01:52:51,355
and it is for the WWE
Tag Team Championship.

1667
01:52:51,388 --> 01:52:56,576
Introducing first, the challengers,
at a combined weight of 492 pounds,

1668
01:52:56,610 --> 01:52:59,929
Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford,

1669
01:52:59,963 --> 01:53:03,116
The Street Profits!

1670
01:53:03,634 --> 01:53:06,503
[Tessitore] It has been
since January of '21

1671
01:53:06,536 --> 01:53:08,472
since they've held championships.

1672
01:53:08,505 --> 01:53:12,643
They get their chance
to return to the top next.

1673
01:53:19,398 --> 01:53:23,670
The first SmackDown from Barcelona
has completely over delivered

1674
01:53:23,704 --> 01:53:25,405
for this roaring crowd.

1675
01:53:25,438 --> 01:53:28,575
Earlier tonight we saw
Charlotte Flair with a victory,

1676
01:53:28,608 --> 01:53:31,562
but then an all-out brawl
with Tiffany Stratton.

1677
01:53:32,012 --> 01:53:36,116
As the night continued on, Randy Orton
with a win over Carmelo Hayes,

1678
01:53:36,148 --> 01:53:39,620
a visit from Kevin Owens, and then the
brutality of Gunther in defeating Axion.

1679
01:53:54,351 --> 01:53:56,786
Jimmy, I wanted to talk to you.

1680
01:53:57,920 --> 01:53:59,572
We have some things in common.

1681
01:53:59,606 --> 01:54:02,326
See, I got a younger brother,
and you, I mean…

1682
01:54:03,460 --> 01:54:06,547
You guys are twins,
but you're obviously the more mature one.

1683
01:54:07,931 --> 01:54:11,652
So I wanted to talk to you
and did you see the match I just had?

1684
01:54:11,684 --> 01:54:12,753
I did.

1685
01:54:12,786 --> 01:54:16,039
The guy, and I mean just like Jey,
he left it all out there,

1686
01:54:16,072 --> 01:54:17,808
just like Jey always does.

1687
01:54:17,840 --> 01:54:22,279
But at the end, I choked him out
and left him laying like a wet towel.

1688
01:54:23,146 --> 01:54:27,701
So if Jey doesn't step back from his
decision to face me at WrestleMania,

1689
01:54:27,733 --> 01:54:29,286
I'll have to do the same to him.

1690
01:54:29,820 --> 01:54:32,456
Jimmy, I'll have to hurt him.

1691
01:54:33,023 --> 01:54:37,210
So can you, just the more mature one,
have a word with him

1692
01:54:37,244 --> 01:54:40,364
-to make the right decision for both…
-You know what, Gunther?

1693
01:54:40,397 --> 01:54:43,383
I honestly think you got
this whole thing backwards, uce.

1694
01:54:43,416 --> 01:54:44,634
Yeah, the disrespect,

1695
01:54:44,668 --> 01:54:48,505
running up on me talking about I need
to go tell Jey this and tell Jey that.

1696
01:54:48,539 --> 01:54:50,324
Well, check this out, uce.

1697
01:54:50,357 --> 01:54:52,142
At WrestleMania,

1698
01:54:52,175 --> 01:54:54,478
The Ring General drops rank, uce.

1699
01:54:54,510 --> 01:54:59,232
And will drop the WWE Heavyweight
Championship to the Main Event.

1700
01:54:59,266 --> 01:55:01,785
Yeah, at Sin City we eatin', uce.

1701
01:55:02,619 --> 01:55:03,786
Yeet!

1702
01:55:05,239 --> 01:55:07,456
I'm sorry, I was mistaken.

1703
01:55:07,491 --> 01:55:09,026
About your maturity.

1704
01:55:10,259 --> 01:55:11,394
I tried.

1705
01:55:12,295 --> 01:55:13,514
I really did.

1706
01:55:17,433 --> 01:55:21,889
[Tessitore] We're 36 days away
from WrestleMania 41, Jey Uso and Gunther,

1707
01:55:21,922 --> 01:55:27,027
but we are literally a minute away
from the WWE Tag Team Championship match.

1708
01:55:28,879 --> 01:55:32,933
[Garcia] And their opponent,
at a combined weight of 407 pounds,

1709
01:55:32,965 --> 01:55:37,603
they are the WWE Tag Team Champions

1710
01:55:37,638 --> 01:55:41,224
Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa,

1711
01:55:41,258 --> 01:55:44,344
DIY!

1712
01:55:44,378 --> 01:55:47,681
[Tessitore] Their second reign
as tag team titlists.

1713
01:55:47,714 --> 01:55:49,683
DIY has actually seen The Street Profits

1714
01:55:49,715 --> 01:55:52,518
interfere with their
last two title defenses.

1715
01:55:52,553 --> 01:55:55,205
Most notable, of course,
that epic two-out-of-three falls match

1716
01:55:55,239 --> 01:55:59,425
in front of 76,000
in Indianapolis at the Royal Rumble.

1717
01:55:59,459 --> 01:56:03,664
[Barrett] Yeah, and it's actually
benefited DIY each time, inadvertently

1718
01:56:03,697 --> 01:56:06,633
because they've maintained the gold,

1719
01:56:06,666 --> 01:56:08,634
and that was the plan of
The Street Profits

1720
01:56:08,669 --> 01:56:12,973
because The Street Profits.
want to kill two birds with one stone.

1721
01:56:13,005 --> 01:56:16,960
A, take out the team DIY
who dropped The Street Profits

1722
01:56:16,994 --> 01:56:19,996
in a backstage attack several months ago.

1723
01:56:20,547 --> 01:56:23,000
And why not take the gold in the process.

1724
01:56:23,032 --> 01:56:26,769
So it's been a long game
for The Street Profits,

1725
01:56:26,803 --> 01:56:29,089
and tonight they hope to make good

1726
01:56:29,121 --> 01:56:34,510
on their goals of finally
regaining WWE tag gold

1727
01:56:34,545 --> 01:56:37,047
after four long years without them.

1728
01:56:37,731 --> 01:56:42,268
[Tessitore] That is what is on the line,
the WWE Tag Team Championships.

1729
01:56:43,269 --> 01:56:45,839
[Barrett] No question, this has been
the messiest division

1730
01:56:45,873 --> 01:56:48,357
-on any brand whatsoever.
-[Tessitore scoffs]

1731
01:56:48,392 --> 01:56:51,929
It's basically been a five-way dogfight
between every team

1732
01:56:51,962 --> 01:56:54,231
who considers themselves number one.

1733
01:56:54,264 --> 01:56:57,451
Finally, it seems we've got
some order restored

1734
01:56:57,483 --> 01:56:59,553
and, of course, whoever wins tonight

1735
01:56:59,585 --> 01:57:04,007
has a future date with destiny with
the number one contenders, Pretty Deadly.

1736
01:57:04,040 --> 01:57:06,242
[Tessitore] It really is hard to describe

1737
01:57:06,276 --> 01:57:12,148
how, as you say, messy the division
has been with Los Garza and Pretty Deadly

1738
01:57:12,182 --> 01:57:16,085
and Motor City Machine Guns,
and then you add in these two powerhouses.

1739
01:57:16,119 --> 01:57:19,990
Speaking of powerhouses,
Angelo Dawkins right from the get-go.

1740
01:57:20,022 --> 01:57:22,910
Yeah, I'll tell you this about The Street
Profits, while they've been away,

1741
01:57:22,942 --> 01:57:25,812
they've clearly put on some size,
they've clearly realized

1742
01:57:25,846 --> 01:57:29,266
they can be the powerhouse team
in this division.

1743
01:57:29,950 --> 01:57:31,168
Of course, Tez can fly.

1744
01:57:32,469 --> 01:57:36,123
And the assisted moonsault
right into the hook of the leg

1745
01:57:36,156 --> 01:57:38,291
and the kick out by Ciampa.

1746
01:57:39,742 --> 01:57:44,313
Ciampa and Gargano have been tagging
together for the best part of ten years.

1747
01:57:44,348 --> 01:57:50,269
Unrivaled chemistry and will do whatever
they have to do to cling onto the gold

1748
01:57:50,304 --> 01:57:54,340
but they better open their eyes
because something bad their way is coming.

1749
01:57:54,374 --> 01:57:57,260
Oh, and Dawkins meets Johnny
with the right hand.

1750
01:57:59,045 --> 01:58:03,333
But Angelo… Angelo Dawkins,
massive Real Madrid fan, he actually went

1751
01:58:03,366 --> 01:58:08,455
to the Real Madrid-Atlético Madrid
Champions League game earlier this week,

1752
01:58:08,487 --> 01:58:12,476
ended up in the Atlético end
with his Real Madrid shirt on.

1753
01:58:12,509 --> 01:58:15,512
It didn't seem like the Atlético fans
wanted the smoke.

1754
01:58:15,562 --> 01:58:19,933
They took one look at the size of Dawkins
and thought, "Nah, we'll let that one go."

1755
01:58:19,967 --> 01:58:21,518
[Tessitore] That's a hard pass.

1756
01:58:22,352 --> 01:58:24,338
[Barrett] But this is why,
look at him taking the fight

1757
01:58:24,371 --> 01:58:27,441
to both opponents here,
Gargano and Ciampa.

1758
01:58:28,474 --> 01:58:32,862
It's simply too strong for that attack
there from Johnny Gargano!

1759
01:58:32,896 --> 01:58:35,648
[Tessitore] Who gets thrown and slammed.

1760
01:58:35,682 --> 01:58:40,237
And Dawkins now brings Tez
into the fold, who's going up top.

1761
01:58:41,054 --> 01:58:42,155
-Wow!
-[Barrett] Ooh!

1762
01:58:42,188 --> 01:58:46,576
Almost overshot the runway
but landed on the head of Johnny Gargano.

1763
01:58:46,610 --> 01:58:50,647
So much spring in the heels of Montez Ford

1764
01:58:50,681 --> 01:58:52,866
[Tessitore] Big clothesline
to close it out

1765
01:58:52,900 --> 01:58:57,371
Can you believe how high Tez went?
And there is Pretty Deadly.

1766
01:58:57,404 --> 01:59:01,892
Number one contenders
earned recently by Pretty Deadly.

1767
01:59:01,942 --> 01:59:05,094
They await to see
who they will get in a title match.

1768
01:59:07,581 --> 01:59:09,333
-Wow!
-[Barrett] Talk about messy,

1769
01:59:09,366 --> 01:59:12,302
this one breaking down,
perhaps now Gargano

1770
01:59:12,335 --> 01:59:15,121
-is the one with the upper hand.
-[Tessitore] Title's on the line.

1771
01:59:19,910 --> 01:59:22,496
[Tessitore] There's an argument to be made
that the Tag Team division

1772
01:59:22,529 --> 01:59:26,148
in SmackDown is the deepest
and recently most highly competitive

1773
01:59:26,717 --> 01:59:30,437
that there is in the industry and these
two now vying for the championship

1774
01:59:30,469 --> 01:59:36,643
that is currently held by DIY as Tommaso
Ciampa has been all over Montez Ford

1775
01:59:36,677 --> 01:59:39,313
[Barrett] Trying to lock in that
fairy-tale ending of his,

1776
01:59:39,346 --> 01:59:44,601
but Montez Ford just too strong for it
at this point in the matchup,

1777
01:59:44,634 --> 01:59:47,036
-just when it looked like Tez was--
-[Tessitore] Oh!

1778
01:59:47,070 --> 01:59:50,440
[Tessitore] Gets his way out of it
and needs that tag in the worst way.

1779
01:59:50,473 --> 01:59:54,428
[Tessitore] And here comes Gargano,
but Tez able to get out of the way.

1780
01:59:54,460 --> 01:59:58,115
[Barrett] Tez now crawling gingerly over
to his fresh tag partner,

1781
01:59:58,147 --> 02:00:01,335
Angelo Dawkins and… Aw, millimeters away.

1782
02:00:01,367 --> 02:00:02,885
[Tessitore] Ciampa drags him back.

1783
02:00:02,920 --> 02:00:07,540
Now a chance to get free
and here comes Angelo Dawkins,

1784
02:00:07,574 --> 02:00:10,027
[Barrett] The absolute slugger of
the team,

1785
02:00:10,059 --> 02:00:13,714
almost 300 pounds,
and he knows how to use it.

1786
02:00:15,048 --> 02:00:18,852
[Tessitore] And look at
the athleticism from Dawkins.

1787
02:00:20,804 --> 02:00:22,623
Get some Gargano.

1788
02:00:29,161 --> 02:00:33,851
What a big moment for The Street Profits.
They've overcome recent injuries,

1789
02:00:33,884 --> 02:00:36,452
they've come back in destructive
and disruptive fashion

1790
02:00:36,486 --> 02:00:41,491
into the division to take gold!
Oh, that left shoulder gets up by Ciampa.

1791
02:00:41,525 --> 02:00:45,195
[Barrett] Well Angelo Dawkins looking like
an absolute whirlwind in there

1792
02:00:45,228 --> 02:00:47,964
channeling himself some Cristiano Ronaldo.

1793
02:00:47,998 --> 02:00:52,201
I'm surprised the good people of Barcelona
appreciated that one,

1794
02:00:52,236 --> 02:00:54,237
one of their big rivals over the years,

1795
02:00:54,271 --> 02:00:58,141
but, now it's Montez Ford
who was tagged in there.

1796
02:00:58,174 --> 02:01:02,079
I don't know if Ciampa is fully aware.
He's taken no prisoners either.

1797
02:01:02,112 --> 02:01:04,630
-Whoa!
-[Tessitore] The teamwork.

1798
02:01:07,183 --> 02:01:12,772
And just short of having new champions.
As we told you, the number one contenders

1799
02:01:12,806 --> 02:01:14,124
are watching on tonight.

1800
02:01:14,156 --> 02:01:16,343
Pretty Deadly won
a Triple Threat a week ago.

1801
02:01:16,375 --> 02:01:19,446
They will face
the winner here, eventually.

1802
02:01:19,478 --> 02:01:22,816
[Barrett] PD in game mode
scouting everything they can,

1803
02:01:22,849 --> 02:01:26,085
knowing full well, they're facing
whoever wins this,

1804
02:01:26,119 --> 02:01:28,505
and it is gonna
be a tall order no matter which team.

1805
02:01:28,539 --> 02:01:30,540
[Tessitore] Are you kidding me?

1806
02:01:31,074 --> 02:01:36,029
450 Splash attempt, but Montez Ford

1807
02:01:36,063 --> 02:01:38,815
failed to connect thanks to Ciampa
getting those knees up.

1808
02:01:38,848 --> 02:01:42,652
[Tessitore] 450 turns
into the knees to the gut,

1809
02:01:42,686 --> 02:01:45,606
and then the teamwork from
Gargano and Ciampa,

1810
02:01:45,639 --> 02:01:48,458
but coming in to save is Dawkins.

1811
02:01:48,491 --> 02:01:51,260
[Barrett] This is one breaking down
in a massive way,

1812
02:01:51,295 --> 02:01:55,415
every team hitting their nuclear missiles.

1813
02:01:55,449 --> 02:01:57,433
-Somehow…
-[Tessitore] You go 450,

1814
02:01:57,467 --> 02:02:00,019
you go shatter machine,
you got counter after counter,

1815
02:02:00,053 --> 02:02:03,406
you have intrigue, you have drama,
and you have the World Championships

1816
02:02:03,440 --> 02:02:05,808
on the line here in Barcelona.

1817
02:02:05,843 --> 02:02:10,614
And just when one member of the team
slows down, the other picks himself up,

1818
02:02:10,647 --> 02:02:12,316
carries on the pace.

1819
02:02:13,817 --> 02:02:15,434
[Tessitore] Tez going up high
with the kick.

1820
02:02:15,469 --> 02:02:17,588
Gargano fights back.

1821
02:02:18,188 --> 02:02:19,639
Oh, that knee up high.

1822
02:02:21,607 --> 02:02:24,928
[Barrett] Well, Ciampa is down,
Ciampa is perhaps out.

1823
02:02:27,030 --> 02:02:29,449
[Tessitore] What a scene
here in Barcelona.

1824
02:02:29,950 --> 02:02:33,554
The European tour is underway
and from start to finish tonight,

1825
02:02:33,587 --> 02:02:37,741
this crowd here at the
Olympic Arena has been on fire.

1826
02:02:38,342 --> 02:02:41,128
Dawkins sends Ciampa into timekeeper,

1827
02:02:41,161 --> 02:02:43,447
[Barrett] Almost snapping
the lower back of him.

1828
02:02:43,480 --> 02:02:46,700
[Tessitore] Oh man!
But Gargano goes flying.

1829
02:02:51,905 --> 02:02:53,507
Dawkins getting the best of it.

1830
02:02:58,045 --> 02:03:01,181
[Barrett] Oh this could be good night
for the Tag Team Champions.

1831
02:03:01,214 --> 02:03:02,366
[Tessitore] It could be.

1832
02:03:03,250 --> 02:03:07,804
Doomsday blockbuster lined up,
but Ciampa hits him from behind.

1833
02:03:07,838 --> 02:03:09,906
[Barrett] Well just in the nick of time
from Ciampa,

1834
02:03:09,940 --> 02:03:12,893
but Gargano is not out of danger yet.

1835
02:03:13,360 --> 02:03:15,128
Ciampa down too.

1836
02:03:16,112 --> 02:03:18,048
Ford wants more!

1837
02:03:18,080 --> 02:03:21,235
High flying is Montez Ford.

1838
02:03:23,769 --> 02:03:27,107
Now they've got a second chance at glory.

1839
02:03:27,139 --> 02:03:28,976
And they deliver!

1840
02:03:32,462 --> 02:03:36,215
Oh! And at the last possible second,
Ciampa saves it.

1841
02:03:36,250 --> 02:03:40,971
[Barrett] Well, just when you write off
the Sicilian psychopath,

1842
02:03:41,004 --> 02:03:47,960
Tommaso Ciampa back from the death
to save his team's Tag Team Championships.

1843
02:03:47,995 --> 02:03:50,214
[Tessitore] The looks on the face
of the number one contender.

1844
02:03:50,246 --> 02:03:54,617
They know they're seeing something special
here, high level stuff in Barcelona.

1845
02:03:55,184 --> 02:03:59,205
[Barrett] Well, The Street Profits pretty
much just hit their best offense,

1846
02:03:59,239 --> 02:04:01,058
and they did not get the double.

1847
02:04:01,090 --> 02:04:03,544
What is left in the tank
of Johnny Gargano?

1848
02:04:03,576 --> 02:04:08,632
[Tessitore] Oh, that knee as he came out,
perfect timing from Ciampa once again,

1849
02:04:08,665 --> 02:04:11,235
now interfering in the efforts.

1850
02:04:12,236 --> 02:04:15,438
of Angelo Dawkins.
What the hell are you doing, Angelo?

1851
02:04:17,107 --> 02:04:18,808
[Tessitore] Gargano gets out of the way.

1852
02:04:18,842 --> 02:04:22,746
[Barrett] Goes for the huge swanton,
not in his usual playbook.

1853
02:04:24,748 --> 02:04:25,781
[Tessitore] And now Ciampa,

1854
02:04:25,816 --> 02:04:30,637
who's been so disruptive on the outside,
comes back to the inside

1855
02:04:30,670 --> 02:04:32,873
trying to line up the fairy-tale ending.

1856
02:04:32,906 --> 02:04:35,474
[Barrett] With an added
super kick from Gargano.

1857
02:04:35,509 --> 02:04:37,494
[Tessitore] To retain the titles.

1858
02:04:38,712 --> 02:04:42,648
-Dawkins finds a way.
-[Barrett] 2.99.

1859
02:04:44,401 --> 02:04:47,754
The weakest kick out in history,

1860
02:04:47,788 --> 02:04:50,907
but it's all it took
for The Street Profits

1861
02:04:50,941 --> 02:04:52,808
to stay alive in this one.

1862
02:04:54,061 --> 02:04:56,929
[Tessitore] Each team has given so much.

1863
02:04:56,964 --> 02:05:01,652
We are seeing the best of
The Street Profits, the best of DIY.

1864
02:05:01,684 --> 02:05:03,920
No! Meet in the Middle, goes south.

1865
02:05:06,255 --> 02:05:08,608
-Dawkins takes advantage.
-[Barrett] Oh, God!

1866
02:05:09,509 --> 02:05:12,396
-Tez is live up top.
-[Barrett] It's happening!

1867
02:05:12,429 --> 02:05:16,465
[Tessitore] Montez Ford, from the heavens!

1868
02:05:16,500 --> 02:05:18,802
Do we have new champs?

1869
02:05:18,835 --> 02:05:21,170
-Yes!
-[bell rings]

1870
02:05:22,071 --> 02:05:24,691
[Garcia] Here are your winners

1871
02:05:24,724 --> 02:05:30,914
and the new WWE Tag Team Champions,

1872
02:05:30,947 --> 02:05:35,035
The Street Profits!

1873
02:05:35,067 --> 02:05:39,723
[Tessitore] The Street Profits,
now two-times Tag Team Champions.

1874
02:05:40,324 --> 02:05:46,013
Four years, two months to wait
to be back on top, and now they are.

1875
02:05:46,045 --> 02:05:49,750
A new reign starts here in Spain.

1876
02:05:52,385 --> 02:05:56,557
Roman Reigns
is with us next week in Italia.

1877
02:05:56,589 --> 02:05:58,875
[speaks Italian] …for Roman Reigns.

1878
02:05:58,909 --> 02:06:02,896
[speaks Italian] We'll see you from Italy.
