01:22:05,133 ["All Mighty" playing] 1577 01:22:25,400 --> 01:22:28,733 [Jimmy] I don't care if you're watching on a TV that is upside down 1578 01:22:28,800 --> 01:22:30,933 and backwards, that is a physique. 1579 01:22:33,433 --> 01:22:40,233 [Corey] WWE Universe, behold The All Mighty United States Champion. 1580 01:22:42,066 --> 01:22:44,400 [Jimmy] That last part so important. 1581 01:22:44,533 --> 01:22:48,266 Winning at Money in the Bank, becoming United States Champion 1582 01:22:48,366 --> 01:22:50,800 again did something to Bobby Lashley. 1583 01:22:50,866 --> 01:22:52,033 He's on another level. 1584 01:22:52,099 --> 01:22:56,433 [Saxton] It's been the mission statement of Bobby Lashley to restore honor 1585 01:22:56,500 --> 01:22:59,466 and respect to the United States title. 1586 01:22:59,533 --> 01:23:02,033 [Corey] Lashley has accomplished that in short order. 1587 01:23:02,133 --> 01:23:04,099 What I'm curious to see is the connection 1588 01:23:04,200 --> 01:23:07,800 that The All Mighty has established with the WWE Universe 1589 01:23:07,866 --> 01:23:09,333 over the past several months. 1590 01:23:09,433 --> 01:23:11,000 Will that be a factor tonight? 1591 01:23:11,066 --> 01:23:14,800 Because the WWE fans also love AJ Styles. 1592 01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:18,066 It's going to be a split crowd possibly right down the middle. 1593 01:23:28,500 --> 01:23:32,166 [Saxton] Think about the sheer work ethic we're seeing from Bobby Lashley, 1594 01:23:32,233 --> 01:23:36,400 had an absolute war with Ciampa last week, 1595 01:23:36,633 --> 01:23:39,666 successfully defending the United States title. 1596 01:23:39,766 --> 01:23:43,300 Next on the docket, "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles? 1597 01:23:43,366 --> 01:23:45,366 [Corey] Lashley wouldn't have it any other way. 1598 01:23:45,466 --> 01:23:48,833 You mentioned his goal to restore the prestige of the United States title, 1599 01:23:48,900 --> 01:23:50,500 this is exactly how you do it. 1600 01:23:50,599 --> 01:23:53,233 [ring announcer] The following contest scheduled for one fall 1601 01:23:53,333 --> 01:23:56,966 is for the United States Championship. 1602 01:23:57,066 -->

01:24:20,066 --> 01:24:24,066 he is the United States Champion, 1609 01:24:24,500 --> 01:24:30,933 "The All Mighty" Bobby Lashley. 1610 01:24:31,000 --> 01:24:32,833 [crowd cheering] 1611 01:24:32,900 --> 01:24:36,766 [Corey] You can see the trigger flip in The All Mighty. 1612 01:24:36,833 --> 01:24:39,700 Lashley was all smiles on his way to the ring. 1613 01:24:39,766 --> 01:24:43,099 The announcement has been made, it is time to go to work. 1614 01:24:44,166 --> 01:24:45,900 [Saxton] That's what it's all about. 1615 01:24:45,966 --> 01:24:49,266 [Corey] Amazingly this is the first-ever meeting 1616 01:24:49,333 --> 01:24:52,133 between these two future Hall of Famers. 1617 01:24:54,533 --> 01:24:57,433 [Jimmy] They've been watching one another for a long time. 1618 01:24:57,500 --> 01:24:59,066 -[referee] Ring the bell. -[bell rings] 1619 01:24:59,133 --> 01:25:01,966 [Jimmy] With the United States Championship on the line, 1620 01:25:02,033 --> 01:25:04,000 it's Bobby Lashley versus AJ Styles. 1621 01:25:04,099 --> 01:25:08,933 [Corey] Curious to see what sort of strategy Lashley employs tonight. 1622 01:25:09,033 --> 01:25:12,666 Last week against Ciampa it was a clash of styles, no pun intended. 1623 01:25:12,766 --> 01:25:17,866 Lashley had to use his smash-mouth style to flatten the challenger 1624 01:25:17,933 --> 01:25:19,966 that Styles just experienced first-hand. 1625 01:25:20,033 --> 01:25:21,866 [Saxton] Speaking of smash-mouth, 1626 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:26,766 Bobby Lashley mowing through Styles in the early going here. 1627 01:25:26,866 --> 01:25:30,833 [Corey] We saw last week how far Ciampa was able to push Lashley. 1628 01:25:30,900 --> 01:25:33,933 Styles has more experience than Ciampa has. 1629 01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:36,900 Styles has more success than Ciampa had. 1630 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:39,333 This could be a bad night for Bobby Lashley. 1631 01:25:40,033 --> 01:25:42,400 [Jimmy] Quick cover, trying to get it over with. 1632 01:25:42,466 --> 01:25:45,733 And a quick kick out from AJ Styles. 1633 01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:49,200 [Corey] Talk about the smash-mouth style of the champion, 1634 01:25:49,266 --> 01:25:50,800 just running through Styles. 1635 01:25:51,233 --> 01:25:54,166 But Lashley had better be careful because you cannot afford 1636 01:25:54,266 --> 01:25:55,433 to make a mistake of any sort 1637 01:25:55,533 --> 01:25:58,766 when you're dealing with somebody as skilled as Styles. 1638 01:25:59,466 --> 01:26:01,200 [Saxton] AJ Styles so far showing a-- 1639 01:26:01,666 --> 01:26:03,966 [Jimmy] Oh, beautiful dropkick. 1640 01:26:04,300 --> 01:26:07,433 A willingness to go right at Bobby Lashley just like that. 1641 01:26:07,500 --> 01:26:09,633 [Saxton] That's who AJ Styles is. 1642 01:26:09,966 --> 01:26:12,033 He's not going to tiptoe around his offense, 1643 01:26:12,133 --> 01:26:15,066 he's going to bring it right to your face and bring everything he's got, 1644 01:26:15,133 --> 01:26:16,333 you better be ready for it. 1645 01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:19,533 [Corey] Very rarely is AJ Styles the biggest dog in the fight, 1646 01:26:19,599 --> 01:26:23,233 but Styles loves to prove that he bites harder than anybody. 1647 01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:28,066 [Jimmy] Lost his title opportunity a couple weeks to go to Ciampa. 1648 01:26:28,133 --> 01:26:30,000 [crowd chants "Bobby Lashley" and "AJ Styles"] 1649 01:26:30,066 --> 01:26:32,133 [Saxton] Corey, this is what you were talking about, 1650 01:26:32,200 --> 01:26:35,400 split the action here from the WWE

making 1656 01:26:48,500 --> 01:26:52,866 on our hands as Lashley just manhandles the challenger. 1657 01:26:52,933 --> 01:26:56,266 [Jimmy] That's the advantage, the strength of Bobby Lashley. 1658 01:26:57,866 --> 01:27:00,233 [Saxton] We talked about the impact of the crowd. 1659 01:27:00,300 --> 01:27:02,633 A crowd that's invested into this match as they are. 1660 01:27:02,733 --> 01:27:07,766 That only hypes up Lashley, only hypes the focus of AJ Styles even more. 1661 01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:10,800 [Corey] Styles utilizing his athleticism, his agility, 1662 01:27:10,866 --> 01:27:13,966 but it's no match for the power of The All Mighty. 1663 01:27:14,566 --> 01:27:16,099 [Saxton] We've seen this before. 1664 01:27:17,733 --> 01:27:20,433 [Jimmy] He so had AJ Styles.
