00:00:04,500 --> 00:00:05,433
[John Cena] Then.

3
00:00:06,899 --> 00:00:07,866
[Rick Flair] Woooo!

00:00:07,933 --> 00:00:10,333

-[The Rock] If you smell…

00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:11,666

-[Cena] Now.

-[Triple H] The king of kings…
-[Cena] You can't see me…

7
00:00:17,300 --> 00:00:18,366
[Cena] Forever.

8
00:00:23,033 --> 00:00:24,233
Together.

[crowd sings "Ole"]

10
00:00:34,266 --> 00:00:36,733
[Kevin Patrick] Sami Zayn grew up
just down he road

11
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,333
from Montreal in Laval, Quebec.

12
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,466
Tonight, the biggest match
of his entire career

13
00:00:44,533 --> 00:00:50,300
in front of his wife,
in front of 17,000 countrymen in Montreal.

14
00:00:50,366 --> 00:00:54,066
Can Sami Zayn take down The King?

15
00:00:55,300 --> 00:01:00,066
[Corey] Roman Reigns looking to weather
the emotional storm of Sami Zayn,

16
00:01:00,133 --> 00:01:01,766
and put him in his place.

17
00:01:01,833 --> 00:01:05,366
Do you understand me?
It's his fault. It's your fault.

18
00:01:05,433 --> 00:01:06,966
[crowd chants "let's go, Sami"]

19
00:01:07,033 --> 00:01:11,633
[Kevin Patrick] Now, Sami Zayn starting
to unload, let the anger come out of him.

20
00:01:11,700 --> 00:01:13,899
Is this Sami's moment?

21
00:01:14,733 --> 00:01:16,933
Do you believe in miracles?

22
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,966
-[Corey] Sami's going to do it.
-[Kevin Patrick] For the title.

23
00:01:20,566 --> 00:01:22,266
Reigns kicked out.

24
00:01:24,266 --> 00:01:26,633
[Corey] Zayn into the corner
and into the official.

25
00:01:27,633 --> 00:01:30,700
Helluva kick. The cover on Roman.

26
00:01:30,766 --> 00:01:31,733
[Kevin Patrick] Wake up.

27
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,333
[Corey] The official's down.

28
00:01:33,399 --> 00:01:36,199
Sami Zayn had the championship won.

29
00:01:36,833 --> 00:01:38,633
Now, look who's here.

30
00:01:38,699 --> 00:01:42,699
Jimmy Uso taking advantage
of the official being down.

31
00:01:43,566 --> 00:01:45,566
[Kevin Patrick]
New official, with the count.

32
00:01:45,966 --> 00:01:49,933
For the love of god,
how the hell did Sami kick out?

33
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,366
Another official taken out.

34
00:01:57,066 --> 00:02:01,566
Wait a minute. It is Jey Uso.

35
00:02:01,633 --> 00:02:03,699
It's either me or it's him.

36
00:02:15,533 --> 00:02:17,733
[Kevin Patrick] Sami Zayn
back at his feet. Oh, my God.

37
00:02:17,799 --> 00:02:18,966
[Corey] Sami speared Jey Uso.

38
00:02:20,166 --> 00:02:23,100
[Kevin Patrick] Jey didn't pull
the trigger, but Roman did.

39

[bell rings]

40
00:02:30,866 --> 00:02:34,299
[Corey] We may have been
in Sami Zayn's house,

41
00:02:34,766 --> 00:02:38,733
but we exist in Roman Reigns' universe.

Montreal's own, Kevin Owens.

-[Kevin Patrick] Taking down Roman.

[Corey] Oh no, Paul. Oh no, Paul.

49
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,000
[Kevin Patrick] Stunner to Heyman.

50
00:03:06,033 --> 00:03:07,933
The Bloodline's in tatters.

51
00:03:10,666 --> 00:03:12,066
[Corey] Helluva kick.

52
00:03:13,466 --> 00:03:17,399
[Kevin Patrick] Not quite what Sami Zayn
wanted out of this night,

53
00:03:18,166 --> 00:03:20,433
but that had to feel good.

54
00:03:20,833 --> 00:03:26,033
[Corey] One of the most emotional nights
that we have ever witnessed here in WWE.

after an unforgettable
Elimination Chamber.

Welcome to Ottawa for Monday Night Raw.

We are on the Road to WrestleMania.

please welcome Sami Zayn.

00:06:42,233 --> 00:06:43,233
Wow.

[crowd chants "Sami"]

71
00:07:11,933 --> 00:07:15,633
I'm feeling a lot of feelings here, guys.

72
00:07:15,700 --> 00:07:20,566
[crowd cheers]

73
00:07:20,633 --> 00:07:24,400
After these past couple of days,

74
00:07:24,466 --> 00:07:30,566
the one feeling that comes to the front
more than anything is gratitude.

75
00:07:30,633 --> 00:07:32,333
[crowd cheers]

76
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,466
The ovation that I've been given
these past couple of days,

77
00:07:35,533 --> 00:07:38,599
and the ovation you guys
just gave me just now,

78
00:07:38,666 --> 00:07:41,366
you guys have no idea
what that means to me, thank you.

79
00:07:41,433 --> 00:07:43,266
Seriously, thank you so much.

80
00:07:43,333 --> 00:07:50,333

[crowd cheers]

83
00:08:26,466 --> 00:08:30,166
I know. Look, for me,
just as much as anybody.

84
00:08:30,566 --> 00:08:35,766
Another thing I'm feeling
is after coming so close

85
00:08:35,833 --> 00:08:38,033
to putting a bow on a storybook ending

86
00:08:38,100 --> 00:08:42,533
in front of my friends, my family,
my city, my country,

87
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,566
and coming up just a hair short,
I'm not going to lie,

88
00:08:45,633 --> 00:08:50,433
I feel a lot of guilt,
a lot of guilt for that.

89
00:08:50,833 --> 00:08:53,033
I feel like I let people down.

90
00:09:02,233 --> 00:09:05,766
Everybody told me,
"Finish the story. Finish the story."

91
00:09:05,833 --> 00:09:09,166
I feel like I didn't,
but after the past couple of days,

92
00:09:09,233 --> 00:09:11,133
especially after this,

93
00:09:11,199 --> 00:09:18,199
I realize now more than ever around here,
the story is never over.

94
00:09:18,266 --> 00:09:24,033
[crowd cheers]

95
00:09:24,100 --> 00:09:30,033
However, we are entering
the final chapter.

96
00:09:31,699 --> 00:09:34,933
The final chapter is not just about me.

97
00:09:35,766 --> 00:09:40,666
There's one person that I do need
to talk to tonight more than anybody else.

98
00:09:45,566 --> 00:09:47,400
Kevin Owens…

99
00:09:49,500 --> 00:09:52,300
I would love it
if you came out here right now.

[crowd cheers]

102
00:10:12,266 --> 00:10:18,666
[Corey] At times, brothers,
at other times, the worst of rivals.

103
00:10:18,733 --> 00:10:24,300
There is an overabundance of history
between Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn

104
00:10:24,366 --> 00:10:28,766
whose careers have paralleled one another
every step of the way.

105
00:10:28,833 --> 00:10:31,900
It all began right here in Canada.

106

[crowd chants "KO"]

107
00:11:27,366 --> 00:11:31,300
There's so much I wanted to say to you.

108
00:11:31,366 --> 00:11:35,233
Now that you're standing here,
I don't know what I want to say.

109
00:11:36,666 --> 00:11:41,400
I want to say thank you, I guess.

110
00:11:44,566 --> 00:11:48,366
I want to say I'm sorry.

111
00:11:49,166 --> 00:11:53,199
I know we're past the point of words
at this point, right?

112
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,199
Let's be honest.
Things have gone a little messy, right?

113
00:11:58,066 --> 00:12:03,100
There's a lot of things you said,
that I said, that has been done here,

114
00:12:03,166 --> 00:12:05,166
that I don't know
if there's any coming back from.

115
00:12:05,233 --> 00:12:06,900
I know. I know.

116
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,166
Here's the thing, Kevin.

117
00:12:09,233 --> 00:12:12,133
For months, you have said that
there's only one thing you care about,

118
00:12:12,199 --> 00:12:15,500
and that's taking down The Bloodline.

119
00:12:15,566 --> 00:12:18,699
[crowd cheers]

120
00:12:18,766 --> 00:12:20,566
I know you better than anything.

121
00:12:20,633 --> 00:12:23,900
When you get something in your head,
nothing stops until you do it.

122
00:12:23,966 --> 00:12:26,266
Here's the thing, Kevin.
Now, I have a mission.

123
00:12:27,266 --> 00:12:29,699
I will make sure that
if it's the last thing I do,

124
00:12:29,766 --> 00:12:32,300
I will not rest until I
see with my own eyes

125
00:12:32,366 --> 00:12:36,900
that Roman Reigns and The Bloodline
come crumbling down.

126
00:12:36,966 --> 00:12:41,433
[crowd cheers]

127
00:12:41,500 --> 00:12:43,099
Here's the thing.

128
00:12:44,599 --> 00:12:46,500
You couldn't do it alone.

129
00:12:48,066 --> 00:12:50,000
I couldn't really do it alone.

130
00:12:52,033 --> 00:12:56,500
I do think
that there's only one way to get it done,

131
00:12:59,166 --> 00:13:02,699
and that is if we do it together.

132
00:13:02,766 --> 00:13:09,766

133
00:13:14,033 --> 00:13:20,233
[crowd chants "yes"]

134
00:13:20,300 --> 00:13:26,066
I don't need an apology from you.
I don't even need your gratitude.

135
00:13:26,133 --> 00:13:31,066
Because Saturday, what I did,
it had nothing to do with you.

136
00:13:31,833 --> 00:13:34,866
I didn't do it for you.
You know who I did it for?

137
00:13:35,266 --> 00:13:36,900
I did it for my family.

138
00:13:36,966 --> 00:13:38,766
Because Saturday,
they were in the front row.

139
00:13:38,833 --> 00:13:40,966
But at the Royal Rumble,
they're all sitting at home.

140
00:13:41,033 --> 00:13:44,300
They had to watch me get the hell
beaten out of me by The Bloodline

141
00:13:44,366 --> 00:13:47,033
while you stood there
and watched it happen, by the way.

142
00:13:47,099 --> 00:13:50,166
That's why I did it for me,
because I needed to hurt The Bloodline.

143
00:13:50,233 --> 00:13:54,766
I did it for your family, your wife,
your dad, your son,

144
00:13:54,833 --> 00:13:58,599
so that they wouldn't have to watch you
get the hell beaten out of you

145
00:13:58,666 --> 00:14:01,266
like my family had to watch it happen.

146
00:14:01,333 --> 00:14:04,166
That's why I did it, okay?

147
00:14:04,233 --> 00:14:09,166
I've been fighting The Bloodline
for months on my own.

148
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,599
As far as I'm concerned, that's fine.

149
00:14:12,666 --> 00:14:16,099
That's the way
I'm going to keep fighting them.

150
00:14:18,433 --> 00:14:19,366
Okay?

151
00:14:20,066 --> 00:14:25,633
Because I still mean everything I said
back in November after Survivor Series.

152
00:14:25,699 --> 00:14:29,633
I told you I was done with you
and that stands today.

153
00:14:29,699 --> 00:14:31,800
Hey, guess what?

154
00:14:32,966 --> 00:14:36,599
If you need help
taking down The Bloodline,

155
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,300
just ask your buddy, Jey.

156
00:14:39,366 --> 00:14:46,366
[crowd boos]

157
00:14:57,333 --> 00:15:00,966
Unfortunately for Sami Zayn,
the roller coaster of emotions continues,

158
00:15:01,033 --> 00:15:03,833
to have his back turned on him
yet again by Kevin Owens.

159
00:15:03,900 --> 00:15:06,966
Yes, the emotion has continued here
into Monday Night Raw,

160
00:15:07,033 --> 00:15:09,533
but Corey, it's also a championship night
here on Raw.

161
00:15:09,599 --> 00:15:12,733
It is an absolutely massive night
on Monday Night Raw.

162
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,699
The United States Championship
will be on the line.

163
00:15:16,766 --> 00:15:21,366
Austin Theory laid out an open challenge
Saturday night after Elimination Chamber.

164
00:15:21,433 --> 00:15:22,333
Who stepped up?

165
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,099
The Hall of Famer Edge
as his challenger tonight.

166
00:15:26,166 --> 00:15:28,233
[Kevin Patrick] Oh, man.
I cannot wait for that one.

167
00:15:28,300 --> 00:15:31,500
Now, without a match
scheduled for tonight,

168
00:15:31,566 --> 00:15:33,933
Bayley has been canvassing
upper management.

169
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,533
She has been sanctioned

is in a bit of a mood tonight

173
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,400
after having his opportunity
Saturday night spoiled

174
00:15:50,466 --> 00:15:52,400
by none other than Logan Paul.

175
00:15:52,466 --> 00:15:55,699
Rollins will step into the ring
against the man responsible

176
00:15:55,766 --> 00:16:00,800
for bringing Logan to WWE,
"The A-Lister" The Miz.

177
00:16:00,866 --> 00:16:04,099
[Kevin Patrick] For Cody Rhodes,
there is no more uncertainty,

178
00:16:04,166 --> 00:16:08,033
the 2023 Royal Rumble Match Winner,
the American Nightmare

179
00:16:08,099 --> 00:16:10,766
hopes to finish the story
in the Main Event

180
00:16:10,833 --> 00:16:13,733
of the biggest WrestleMania of all time.

181
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,233
Cody Rhodes is here on Raw tonight.

182
00:16:16,300 --> 00:16:21,266
["Worlds Apart" playing]

183
00:16:21,333 --> 00:16:23,900
[Corey] It's an emotional night here
on Monday Night Raw,

184
00:16:23,966 --> 00:16:26,933
Sami Zayn addressing the WWE Universe.

185
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,933
-[Kevin Patrick] Wait.
-[Corey] Hang on a second.

186
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,266
[Corey] Baron Corbin.

187
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,500
Sami. How did that feel?

188
00:16:42,566 --> 00:16:46,266
How did you think it felt
when you interrupted me last week

189
00:16:46,333 --> 00:16:51,099
to come out here
and cry about all your insecurities?

190
00:16:51,166 --> 00:16:55,233
How you didn't think
you needed to be or deserved to be

191
00:16:55,300 --> 00:16:59,599
in the same ring as Roman Reigns.

192
00:16:59,666 --> 00:17:02,133
[crowd boos]

193
00:17:02,199 --> 00:17:03,566
You didn't.

194
00:17:03,633 --> 00:17:08,300
I should know,
considering I'm the last person

195
00:17:08,366 --> 00:17:12,233
to beat Roman Reigns.

196
00:17:15,899 --> 00:17:20,266
Sami, I called it.
He was going to embarrass you. He did.

197
00:17:20,333 --> 00:17:25,866
He destroyed you in front of your family
and all your friends.

198
00:17:25,933 --> 00:17:29,300
Now, this Sami, this was just pathetic.

199
00:17:29,366 --> 00:17:33,233
You came here out here
and begged for Kevin Owens.

200
00:17:33,300 --> 00:17:35,100
Your so-called best friend. He left.

201
00:17:36,399 --> 00:17:41,233
Sami, look at me in the eyes
when I'm talking to you.

202
00:17:41,300 --> 00:17:42,733
You need to hear this.

203
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,000
Your story is over.

204
00:17:47,066 --> 00:17:51,933
You embarrassed yourself, your hometown,

205
00:17:52,566 --> 00:17:54,333
all of Canada.

206
00:17:54,399 --> 00:17:57,233
It's because you, Sami,

207
00:17:57,633 --> 00:18:03,433
are a complete and utter failure.

208
00:18:03,500 --> 00:18:05,300
[crowd boos]

209
00:18:05,366 --> 00:18:07,000
[inaudible conversation]

210
00:18:07,066 --> 00:18:08,600
Yes, you get him!

211
00:18:08,666 --> 00:18:11,966
[Corey] Adam Pearce just stepped aside.
Sami's charging the ring.

212
00:18:12,033 --> 00:18:14,333
[Kevin Patrick]
Let's go. Here goes Sami Zayn.

213
00:18:14,399 --> 00:18:19,700
At pace now taking down Baron Corbin,
unleashing blow after blow to Corbin.

214
00:18:20,300 --> 00:18:22,700
[Corey] Sami Zayn has come unglued.

215
00:18:24,666 --> 00:18:26,466
Corbin to the outside.

216
00:18:34,166 --> 00:18:38,600
-[inaudible conversation]
-[bell rings]

217
00:18:38,666 --> 00:18:40,833
[Corey] Adam Pearce has made it official.

218
00:18:42,033 --> 00:18:43,566
[Kevin Patrick] Sami Zayn is angered.

219
00:18:43,633 --> 00:18:46,833
Did you see the face of Zayn
as soon as Corbin mentioned his family?

220
00:18:46,899 --> 00:18:51,166
[Corey] Sami has been in an emotional
roller coaster for months now.

221
00:18:51,233 --> 00:18:56,766
It all culminated 48 hours ago.
Obviously, Sami is still stinging.

222
00:18:56,833 --> 00:18:59,566
[Kevin Patrick] Corbin, the vulture,
looking to pick apart

223
00:18:59,633 --> 00:19:02,533
whatever is left of Sami Zayn
after Elimination Chamber.

224
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,166
[Corey] Listen,
I know Baron Corbin extremely well.

225
00:19:05,233 --> 00:19:07,433
Corbin himself is mentally out of sorts

226
00:19:07,500 --> 00:19:10,833
after being left high and dry
by JBL several weeks ago.

227
00:19:10,899 --> 00:19:13,266
[Kevin Patrick] Sami Zayn at pace now.
Corbin ducking away.

228
00:19:13,333 --> 00:19:17,233
[Corey] Baron Corbin is out here,
as much to prove something to himself

229
00:19:17,300 --> 00:19:20,399
as he is to Sami Zayn or the WWE fans.

230
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:25,500
[Kevin Patrick] Corbin now
letting loose on Sami Zayn.

231
00:19:26,733 --> 00:19:28,100
[Corey] Baron does speak the truth

232
00:19:28,166 --> 00:19:30,533
when he says he's the last person
to defeat Roman Reigns.

233
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,899
You can only hang your hat
on that for so long.

234
00:19:33,966 --> 00:19:36,533
This is a "What have you done
for me lately?" business.

235
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,033
Corbin's been struggling.

236
00:19:38,100 --> 00:19:41,466
Baron Corbin knows
what it feels like to hit rock bottom.

237
00:19:41,533 --> 00:19:44,300
Corbin does not want
to experience that again.

238
00:19:44,366 --> 00:19:45,366
[crowd chants "Sami"]

239
00:19:45,433 --> 00:19:48,533
[Kevin Patrick] 48 hours removed
from the hellacious battle

240
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:49,899
against Roman Reigns.

241
00:19:49,966 --> 00:19:51,466
[Corey] You can see the battle wounds

242
00:19:51,533 --> 00:19:55,533
still decorating the back
and the front of Sami Zayn.

243
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,366
Corbin, the veteran,
wisely targeting the back.

244
00:19:58,433 --> 00:20:01,800
Remember, in the closing moments
of Elimination Chamber,

245
00:20:01,866 --> 00:20:06,800
Roman Reigns mangled a steel chair
on the body of a fallen Zayn.

246
00:20:09,733 --> 00:20:13,100
[Kevin Patrick] Corbin so fast,
so powerful, but Sami Zayn responds.

247
00:20:14,466 --> 00:20:16,600
[Corey] Sami swinging wildly.

248
00:20:20,100 --> 00:20:22,000
[Kevin Patrick]
Pace now off the turnbuckle.

249
00:20:22,066 --> 00:20:25,500
Sami Zayn will give it everything
in front of the Ottawa fans here tonight.

250
00:20:25,566 --> 00:20:26,899
[Corey] As we saw Saturday night,

251
00:20:26,966 --> 00:20:31,666
no one utilizes their emotion as fuel
quite as well as Sami.

252
00:20:31,733 --> 00:20:33,233
[Kevin Patrick] Cover, hooks the leg,

253
00:20:33,300 --> 00:20:35,733
Corbin now to put away Zayn,
the kick out by Sami.

254
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,766
[Corey] Can Sami
fight his way back into this?

255
00:20:42,500 --> 00:20:45,066
[Kevin Patrick] Baron Corbin
looking to put away Sami Zayn here.

256
00:20:45,133 --> 00:20:47,366
It's been an emotional start
to Monday Night Raw,

257
00:20:47,433 --> 00:20:49,933
an exchange between Zayn and Kevin Owens.

258
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:51,800
As Sami was leaving,

259
00:20:51,866 --> 00:20:55,800
Baron Corbin attacked Zayn from behind,
resulting in this one on one.

260
00:20:55,866 --> 00:20:58,166
[Corey] Right now, this back breaker
applied by Corbin

261
00:20:58,233 --> 00:21:01,833
is agonizing to Sami Zayn,
who fights his way free,

262
00:21:01,899 --> 00:21:04,433
and an elbow right on the ear of Corbin.

263
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,000
[Kevin Patrick]
Another one from Sami Zayn.

264
00:21:10,066 --> 00:21:12,966
[Corey] Sami Zayn all heart
in the ring tonight

265
00:21:13,033 --> 00:21:15,333
after suffering a brutal beating

266
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,466
Saturday night
at the hands of The Tribal Chief.

267
00:21:18,866 --> 00:21:22,100
Sami's will to make it
to the top of the mountain

268
00:21:22,166 --> 00:21:24,899
just as strong as it was Saturday night.

269
00:21:24,966 --> 00:21:27,366
[Kevin Patrick]
Canada's favorite son right now.

270
00:21:27,433 --> 00:21:31,700
[Corey] Displaying his unbreakable resolve
here in Ottawa.

271
00:21:32,100 --> 00:21:34,966
Corbin would love to play spoiler
for Sami tonight.

272
00:21:38,633 --> 00:21:41,233
[Kevin Patrick] You see the marks
all over the body of Sami Zayn

273
00:21:41,300 --> 00:21:44,533
after that battle with Roman Reigns,
but Sami continues to fight.

274
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,933
-[Corey] Baron got spiked.
-[Kevin Patrick] Hooks the leg.

275
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,233
-Now Sami Zayn for the victory.
-[Corey] The kick out by Corbin.

276
00:21:53,233 --> 00:21:56,133
Baron Corbin finding out firsthand
what it's like to compete

277
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,500
against Sami Zayn
in his home country of Canada.

278
00:21:59,566 --> 00:22:05,133
As we look again at the athleticism
of Sami, driving Corbin down.

279
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:09,399
Because Baron Corbin realizing,
much like Roman Reigns did Saturday night,

280
00:22:09,466 --> 00:22:14,133
you don't just fight Sami in Canada,
you fight Sami and Canada.

281
00:22:14,533 --> 00:22:17,666
[Kevin Patrick] Springboard DDT from Zayn,
and Corbin still struggling,

282
00:22:17,733 --> 00:22:19,933
but now he's back on his feet.
The vicious right.

283
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:20,833
[Corey] Smart move.

284
00:22:22,399 --> 00:22:26,399
Sami puts on the brakes.
Corbin again over the top to the outside.

285
00:22:27,433 --> 00:22:29,833
Sami thinking about taking flight.

286
00:22:30,233 --> 00:22:33,433
[Kevin Patrick]
Zayn at pace, taking out Baron Corbin.

287
00:22:33,500 --> 00:22:39,033
[crowd cheers]

288
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:43,800
[Corey] Take a look at this, the height,
most importantly, the impact.

289
00:22:43,866 --> 00:22:50,100
Sami crashing down on the outside
to Corbin, fueled by his home countrymen.

290
00:22:50,933 --> 00:22:52,899
[Kevin Patrick] I have no idea.
I get it, Graves.

291
00:22:52,966 --> 00:22:56,899
I get it. He's in Canada. I have no idea
how Sami Zayn is doing this right now.

292
00:22:56,966 --> 00:22:58,833
48 hours removed
from the Elimination Chamber.

293
00:22:58,899 --> 00:23:02,399
-[Corey] I explained it to you, Kevin.
-[Kevin Patrick] I've never been there.

294
00:23:02,466 --> 00:23:04,399
[Corey] That's because
all the Irish hate you.

295
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:10,966
Sami Zayn lining up, Baron Corbin.
Corbin in all types of trouble right now.

296
00:23:11,033 --> 00:23:11,899
Here we go.

297
00:23:11,966 --> 00:23:13,133
[Kevin Patrick] Oh.

298
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,333
[Corey] Brilliant counter by Corbin.

299
00:23:16,399 --> 00:23:20,666
Taking Sami's head off before Sami
could deliver the helluva kick.

300
00:23:21,166 --> 00:23:25,233
Again, Corbin wisely targeting
the ribs and lower back.

301
00:23:27,399 --> 00:23:30,066
[Kevin Patrick] Leaving Sami battered
and bruised again.

302
00:23:30,133 --> 00:23:32,866
[Corey] Sami ultimately brought this
on himself.

303
00:23:32,933 --> 00:23:35,833
Deep six. That could do it.

304
00:23:36,700 --> 00:23:40,366
[Kevin Patrick] Corbin to end it.
No, Sami Zayn is still here.

305
00:23:40,433 --> 00:23:41,300
He's still alive.

306
00:23:41,366 --> 00:23:44,700
[Corey] It was last week on Raw
that Sami Zayn interrupted Baron Corbin,

307
00:23:44,766 --> 00:23:48,566
and Corbin looking
for a little payback tonight.

308
00:23:48,633 --> 00:23:52,233
First the clothesline,
and watch this, around we go.

309
00:23:52,300 --> 00:23:54,566
Down hard, deep six.

310
00:23:54,966 --> 00:23:59,200
Two and three-quarters,
but Sami is still in this fight.

311
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:08,100
[Kevin Patrick] The resilience on show,
simply incredible from Sami Zayn.

312
00:24:08,566 --> 00:24:11,933
[Corey] You have to start asking yourself
as the beatings continue,

313
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:16,066
when is the resilience
a detriment to Sami Zayn

314
00:24:16,133 --> 00:24:18,466
because there is no quit in Sami.

315
00:24:18,533 --> 00:24:19,899
Helluva kick.

316
00:24:19,966 --> 00:24:24,666
[Kevin Patrick] Rocks Corbin, he's down.
He's down. Cover. He's got him.

317
00:24:24,733 --> 00:24:27,733
-[bell rings]
-["Worlds Apart" playing]

318
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:33,666
[announcer] Here is your winner,
Sami Zayn.

319
00:24:33,733 --> 00:24:38,500
[Corey] The Elimination Chamber
did not go Sami Zayn's way,

320
00:24:38,566 --> 00:24:44,966
but the former Honorary Uce
wasting no time picking himself up,

321
00:24:45,033 --> 00:24:47,233
dusting himself off,

322
00:24:47,833 --> 00:24:51,433
and continuing his pursuit
of the mountaintop.

323
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:57,133
Just this quickly,
Baron took his eye off the ball,

324
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,200
and Sami kicked Baron's bicuspid
in the next week.

325
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:06,666
Helluva kick
and a big win on home turf again.

326
00:25:07,066 --> 00:25:10,466
[Kevin Patrick] Sami Zayn left
that indelible mark in Montreal,

327
00:25:10,533 --> 00:25:12,899
and he's doing it again tonight in Ottawa.

328
00:25:14,733 --> 00:25:17,666
[Corey] Tonight was a big night
for Sami Zayn.

329
00:25:17,733 --> 00:25:23,166
Sami may not be the only Canadian
making a little history tonight

330
00:25:23,233 --> 00:25:24,733
on Monday Night Raw.

331
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:25,866
Yes, that's right, Graves.

332
00:25:25,933 --> 00:25:29,300
At Elimination Chamber,
Hall of Fame couple, the grit couple,

333
00:25:29,366 --> 00:25:30,766

334

338
00:25:47,100 --> 00:25:50,033
[Kevin Patrick] The Judgment Day
has become Frankenstein's monster,

339
00:25:50,100 --> 00:25:51,533
created, of course, by Edge.

340
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,033
Edge was kicked out of the group

341
00:25:53,100 --> 00:25:55,600
and now this monster
has taken on a life of its own.

342
00:25:55,666 --> 00:25:58,100
-[Corey] This is deeply personal.

343
00:25:58,566 --> 00:26:01,266
[Corey] The grit couple
taking it out on The Judgment Day.

344
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,433
That punk Dominik getting involved.

345
00:26:06,133 --> 00:26:07,300
Oh, no, no, no.

346
00:26:07,366 --> 00:26:10,433
This is what they did to Beth Phoenix
back at Extreme Rules.

347
00:26:10,500 --> 00:26:12,800
Balor's forcing Edge to watch his wife.

348
00:26:13,266 --> 00:26:14,933
Beth able to escape.

349
00:26:15,333 --> 00:26:17,100
Glam slam on the floor.

350
00:26:18,366 --> 00:26:20,033
Shatter machine.

351
00:26:20,100 --> 00:26:21,600
Cover by Edge.

352
00:26:23,533 --> 00:26:28,100
The grit couple
is the last couple standing.

353
00:26:32,466 --> 00:26:34,533
Already a Hall of Famer,

354
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:39,766
the Rated-R Superstar has a chance
to add even more gold to his resume.

355
00:26:39,833 --> 00:26:44,800
As Edge challenges
the United States Champion, Austin Theory,

356
00:26:44,866 --> 00:26:48,300
tonight live on Monday Night Raw.

357
00:26:48,933 --> 00:26:52,066
[Kevin Patrick] Cannot wait for that one.
Look at who it is.

358
00:26:52,133 --> 00:26:56,699
"The Eradicator" Rhea Ripley
alongside Dominik Mysterio.

359
00:26:56,766 --> 00:27:00,300
We're going to hear from Rhea Ripley.
We know she's heading to WrestleMania.

360
00:27:00,366 --> 00:27:02,566
Let's get the thoughts of Rhea next.

361
00:27:05,466 --> 00:27:07,100
Welcome back to Monday Night Raw.

362
00:27:07,166 --> 00:27:09,333
We're thrilled to be
at the Canadian tire center,

363
00:27:09,399 --> 00:27:12,800
home of the Ottawa senators
of the national hockey league.

364
00:27:12,866 --> 00:27:15,933
Now 48 hours removed from the loss
of the Elimination Chamber.

365
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,800
Let's get the call to Rhea Ripley,
who's with Dominik Mysterio,

366
00:27:18,866 --> 00:27:21,500
and our broadcast colleague, Byron Saxton.

367
00:27:24,566 --> 00:27:28,100
Rhea, Dominik,
I appreciate you both joining me.

368
00:27:28,166 --> 00:27:32,433
Rhea, I'd like to ask you
about what happened this past Saturday

369
00:27:32,500 --> 00:27:33,966
at Elimination Chamber.

370
00:27:34,533 --> 00:27:36,166
What about the Elimination Chamber?

371
00:27:36,233 --> 00:27:39,366
You and Finn Bálor
faced Edge and Beth Phoenix,

372
00:27:39,433 --> 00:27:42,899
but ultimately,
The Judgment Day came up short.

373
00:27:42,966 --> 00:27:46,033
Look, the last thing that I'm going to say
about Beth Phoenix

374
00:27:46,100 --> 00:27:50,133
is that after we went toe to toe,
Beth admitted that I am the real deal.

375
00:27:50,699 --> 00:27:52,899
For me, we have unfinished business.

376
00:27:53,300 --> 00:27:55,699
Right now, I'm not thinking
about Elimination Chamber.

377
00:27:55,766 --> 00:27:59,333
That's in the past.
I'm fully focused on WrestleMania.

378
00:27:59,399 --> 00:28:00,666
Well, do you think that loss--

379
00:28:00,733 --> 00:28:05,233
Mami said she doesn't want to talk
about Edge and Beth Phoenix anymore.

380
00:28:05,300 --> 00:28:08,933
Those has beens
are just like my deadbeat dad.

381
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,766
It's not worth talking about it.

382
00:28:10,833 --> 00:28:13,800
Byron, keep asking stupid questions

383
00:28:13,866 --> 00:28:15,199
and you're going to find out

384
00:28:15,266 --> 00:28:18,199
what I did to people who talked too much
when I was locked up.

385
00:28:19,699 --> 00:28:20,866
Okay, then.

386
00:28:21,500 --> 00:28:24,733
Let's talk about
your WrestleMania opponent,

387
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,666
the SmackDown Women's Champion,
Charlotte Flair.

388
00:28:29,066 --> 00:28:30,800
How do you respond to Charlotte's saying

389
00:28:30,866 --> 00:28:34,100
that three years ago
she taught you a lesson,

390
00:28:34,699 --> 00:28:38,066
but this year she puts you in your place?

391
00:28:39,233 --> 00:28:41,966
Look, Charlotte can keep living in 2020,

392
00:28:42,033 --> 00:28:43,033
but the only reason

393
00:28:43,100 --> 00:28:45,833
that she wants to keep talking
about what happened three years ago

394
00:28:45,899 --> 00:28:50,233
is because she refuses to believe
what everyone else can see.

395
00:28:50,300 --> 00:28:53,199
That's that right now, in the present,

396
00:28:53,266 --> 00:28:56,566
I am the best bloody woman
here in the WWE.

397
00:28:57,033 --> 00:28:59,000
As for lessons being learned,

398
00:28:59,066 --> 00:29:03,433
the only lesson here is that Rhea Ripley
doesn't make the same mistakes twice.

399
00:29:04,066 --> 00:29:10,133
If Charlotte Flair wants to put me
in my place at WrestleMania, then good.

400
00:29:10,666 --> 00:29:14,666
Because my place is standing
on top of her crumbled queendom

401
00:29:14,733 --> 00:29:20,399
when I walk out of WrestleMania
the new SmackDown Women's Champion.

402
00:29:21,566 --> 00:29:25,699
Looking ahead,
what can we expect this Friday

403
00:29:25,766 --> 00:29:30,733
when you go face-to-face
with Charlotte Flair on SmackDown?

404
00:29:31,399 --> 00:29:33,433
You'll have to watch and find out, Byron.

405
00:29:34,266 --> 00:29:37,500
I think my dad has a match that Friday.

406
00:29:37,566 --> 00:29:40,466
Why don't I tag along with you
and wish him good luck?

407
00:29:40,866 --> 00:29:42,166
That's a great idea.

408
00:29:42,766 --> 00:29:45,466
Byron, we're done here.

409
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,899
[music playing]

410
00:29:51,966 --> 00:29:57,233
[Corey] It appears that Charlotte Flair's
queendom is indeed under attack.

411
00:29:57,300 --> 00:30:00,533
It all goes down
at the Showcase of the Immortals

412
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,100
with the SmackDown Women's Championship
on the line.

413
00:30:04,166 --> 00:30:09,699
"The Queen" Charlotte Flair defends
against "The Eradicator" Rhea Ripley.

414
00:30:10,699 --> 00:30:13,466
Corey, as for
the Men's Elimination Chamber Match,

415
00:30:13,533 --> 00:30:15,533
I for one thought
that Seth "Freakin" Rollins

416
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,266
was headed back
to become United States Champion.

417
00:30:18,333 --> 00:30:19,666
It certainly looked that way

418
00:30:19,733 --> 00:30:23,333
when it was Seth Rollins and Austin Theory
that were remaining in the match.

419
00:30:23,399 --> 00:30:26,800
Rollins looking for pedigree
and to end it, but look what happened.

420
00:30:26,866 --> 00:30:29,733
[Corey] As Rollins looked
to seal the deal,

421
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:34,566
Logan Paul,
the Maverick's social media megastar,

422
00:30:34,633 --> 00:30:39,500
would enter the Elimination Chamber
as Montez Ford was being tended to

423
00:30:39,566 --> 00:30:43,933
and deliver a thunderous stomp
to Rollins himself.

424
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,133
Paul made sure he had the best view
in the house

425
00:30:48,199 --> 00:30:53,000
as A-Town Down spoiled
Rollins' United States title dreams.

426
00:30:53,066 --> 00:30:57,000
[Kevin Patrick] We are living in the now.
Here was Theory post-match victory.

427
00:30:57,466 --> 00:31:03,699
If I have a United States Championship
Open Challenge this Monday on Raw,

428
00:31:03,766 --> 00:31:05,000
who's going to step up?

429
00:31:05,066 --> 00:31:06,966
I respect Cena
because he has a work ethic,

430
00:31:07,033 --> 00:31:09,399
which is something that I don't know
that Austin Theory has

431
00:31:09,466 --> 00:31:13,466
and maybe we prove that Monday
when I accept his US Open Challenge.

432
00:31:13,533 --> 00:31:15,833
I think I probably need
to kick his teeth down his throat.

433
00:31:19,066 --> 00:31:23,466
Please welcome my guest at this time,
United States Champion, Austin Theory.

434
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,600
Now, Austin, how are you feeling
heading into tonight's title defense

435
00:31:31,666 --> 00:31:36,366
against Edge knowing that you successfully
defended your United States Championship

436
00:31:36,433 --> 00:31:40,800
in a grueling Elimination Chamber Match
just 48 hours ago?

437
00:31:41,366 --> 00:31:42,500
I'm banged up.

438
00:31:42,566 --> 00:31:47,366
I can feel it, but here I am
like I always am, and why is that?

439
00:31:47,433 --> 00:31:48,633
Because I'm the champ.

440
00:31:48,699 --> 00:31:52,933
I stepped inside the Elimination Chamber
with five of the best in the WWE,

441
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,600
including in those five,
Seth "Freakin" Rollins.

442
00:31:56,666 --> 00:31:59,866
Somebody that they said had it.
That he was going to win it all.

443
00:31:59,933 --> 00:32:03,399
What happened?
I put him down just like I said I would.

444
00:32:03,466 --> 00:32:08,766
Everything that I say,
it's not making sense to me.

445
00:32:08,833 --> 00:32:11,366
What's really bothering me
is the headline.

446
00:32:11,433 --> 00:32:15,833
It doesn't say Austin Theory
is the now and the forever of the WWE.

447
00:32:15,899 --> 00:32:17,466
No, no, no. You know what it says now?

448
00:32:17,533 --> 00:32:22,000
It says that John Cena is coming back
in two weeks to Monday Night Raw.

449
00:32:22,066 --> 00:32:25,000
You know what that headline should say?
Who cares?

450
00:32:25,066 --> 00:32:28,433
Where's my respect?
Where's the work that I put in every week?

451
00:32:28,500 --> 00:32:29,333
But…

452
00:32:30,266 --> 00:32:31,633
[sighs in relief]

453
00:32:31,699 --> 00:32:34,933
I have a United States Championship
Open Challenge tonight,

454
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,533
that's already been accepted
by "The Rated-R Superstar" Edge,

455
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,233
and that's great. I love that

456
00:32:40,300 --> 00:32:46,000
because I get to be a Hall of Famer
in his home country, crappy Canada,

457
00:32:46,399 --> 00:32:47,533
and then after that,

458
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:52,399
I'm going to continue
my forever reign right on to WrestleMania.

459
00:32:52,466 --> 00:32:58,699
My legacy will stand over everyone
because this title I will never lose.

460
00:32:58,766 --> 00:33:00,699
How's that for a headline?

461
00:33:03,666 --> 00:33:04,966
["Here to Show the World" playing]

for Edge tonight.

00:33:10,566 --> 00:33:12,633
Here comes someone who knows
what it's all about

464
00:33:12,699 --> 00:33:14,666
to be United States Champion.

00:33:25,066 --> 00:33:31,300
weighing 218 pounds, Dolph Ziggler.

[Kevin Patrick]
Look at the moves of Dolph Ziggler.

470
00:33:33,500 --> 00:33:36,199
You got a hand it to Ziggler who's
actually been trying to motivate

471
00:33:36,266 --> 00:33:38,000
a disgruntled Mustafa Ali.

472
00:33:38,066 --> 00:33:39,633
Well, it's kind of backfired,

473
00:33:39,699 --> 00:33:43,566
and now the decorated veteran
is out to teach Ali a lesson.

474
00:33:43,633 --> 00:33:46,233
It's one on one
coming your way next on Raw.

he feels he should be at WrestleMania

[announcer] His opponent,
from Chicago, Illinois,

481
00:34:10,500 --> 00:34:16,033
weighing 182 pounds, Mustafa Ali.

482
00:34:16,100 --> 00:34:17,733
[Corey] That's all well and good, KP,

483
00:34:17,799 --> 00:34:20,100
that Mustafa Ali thinks
he should be at WrestleMania.

484
00:34:20,166 --> 00:34:22,066
I think I should be running
the country, okay,

485
00:34:22,133 --> 00:34:24,033
that doesn't necessarily mean
it's a good idea.

486
00:34:24,100 --> 00:34:27,666
[Kevin Patrick] You said Mustafa Ali
has been doing a lot of whinging of late.

487
00:34:27,733 --> 00:34:31,199
Last week, Dolph Ziggler
actually tried to help him out.

488
00:34:33,433 --> 00:34:36,500
Stop the excuses. Stop complaining.

489
00:34:36,566 --> 00:34:38,166

490
00:34:38,233 --> 00:34:43,199

we all know it, make it happen.

take enough vitamins, say my prayers,

Dolph, Dolph, Dolph. No, seriously.

00:34:50,633 --> 00:34:55,100
You think if I smiled more,
things would start going my way, right?

494
00:34:55,166 --> 00:34:56,933
That's what you're saying, right?

495
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,533
Clearly, clearly,
this is not getting through to you.

496
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,400
This is not getting
through your thick skull.

497
00:35:02,466 --> 00:35:05,200
I guess the only way someone
could get that through to you

498
00:35:05,266 --> 00:35:07,100
is to beat it into you.

00:35:09,566 --> 00:35:13,033
[Corey] Listen, Dolph Ziggler
has a resume that speaks for itself.

500

Once upon a time, Ziggler
was the World Heavyweight Champion.

stock into what Ziggler is telling you.

502
00:35:20,133 --> 00:35:23,033
A veteran as capable as he is. Cover here.

503

[Corey] Cover early.
Ziggler looking to put away Ali.

504
00:35:25,266 --> 00:35:28,333
[Kevin Patrick] Listen, we know Ali's
got the tools. Beautiful again cradle.

505
00:35:29,100 --> 00:35:30,866
We know Ali has the skill set.

506
00:35:30,933 --> 00:35:33,166
We know Ali is an incredible competitor,

507
00:35:33,233 --> 00:35:36,400
but obviously,
Mustafa Ali has been lacking something.

508
00:35:36,466 --> 00:35:39,766
Dolph Ziggler laid
some valuable knowledge on him last week.

509
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,200
[Kevin Patrick] You mentioned
being a former champion.

510
00:35:43,266 --> 00:35:47,033
Dolph Ziggler 15 championships
in WWE. Look at that.

511
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,333
At pace now Dolph Ziggler.
How disingenuous was Mustafa Ali, though?

512
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:53,566
Insincere?

513
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,866
[Corey] That's your opinion, KP.

514
00:35:58,866 --> 00:36:01,299
Here we go. Ziggler lining it up.

515

and Ali bails wisely.

[Kevin Patrick]
Ziggler not hanging around, though.

Looking to help out Mustafa Ali.
Quite motivational from Dolph Ziggler.

518
00:36:12,666 --> 00:36:16,966
Clearly, Mustafa Ali
not exactly taking on his advice.

519
00:36:17,033 --> 00:36:18,266
[Corey] That's why we're here.

520
00:36:18,333 --> 00:36:19,266
Dolph realized…

521
00:36:19,333 --> 00:36:21,433
[Mustafa] Let me see you smile, Dolph.

522
00:36:21,500 --> 00:36:23,033
[Corey] …I'm trying to offer advice…

523
00:36:23,100 --> 00:36:27,600
Come on, pull up your hair, Dolph,
show everyone that smile.

524
00:36:27,666 --> 00:36:29,533
[Corey] …to a struggling superstar.

525
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:33,033
Ziggler is trying to help Mustafa Ali.
Ali wasn't having it.

526
00:36:33,100 --> 00:36:34,799
Ali mocked Ziggler

527
00:36:34,866 --> 00:36:38,466
and now Dolph realizes
sometimes tough love is the best type.

528
00:36:41,166 --> 00:36:42,533
[Kevin Patrick] Ali able to evade.

529
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:46,600
Kick right between
the show-off's eyes. Wow.

[Corey] Rocks Dolph Ziggler,
the wry smile on Mustafa Ali.

531
00:36:55,433 --> 00:36:58,133
[Corey] Back inside he goes Ali. Oh, man.

532
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,600
[Kevin Patrick] DDT. That's got to do it.

533
00:37:00,666 --> 00:37:02,033
[Corey] Spikes Ali, hooks the leg.

534
00:37:02,100 --> 00:37:05,533
Dolph Ziggler now to put him away
and kick out at two and a half.

535
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,166
[Kevin Patrick] Credit to the toughness
of Mustafa Ali,

536
00:37:08,233 --> 00:37:11,966
but Dolph Ziggler not afraid
to take this thing into the deep water.

537
00:37:12,033 --> 00:37:17,833
Dolph is a machine inside the ring,
as Ali is finding out firsthand.

538
00:37:17,900 --> 00:37:23,366
Mustafa planted by the show-off,
and now Dolph looking to finish the job.

539

Here it comes. Famouser. Wow.

Dolph Ziggler, the WWE Universe,

Fantastic counter by Mustafa Ali.
Nice crucifix pin applied.

Ali is being sarcastic,
but hey, a win's a win.

now, didn't he?

to earth by my former protege Logan Paul.

00:46:28,033 --> 00:46:31,733
Let's say, at WrestleMania,

672
00:46:32,133 --> 00:46:38,866
Cody Rhodes
beats "The Tribal Chief" Roman Reigns

673
00:46:38,933 --> 00:46:40,866
for these championships.

674
00:46:43,233 --> 00:46:49,266
Then, sir, what will your life be like?

675
00:46:49,866 --> 00:46:54,733
Have you ever heard the phrase
"indentured servitude"?

676
00:46:55,133 --> 00:46:57,933
Now, I know
what everybody's thinking right now.

677
00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:02,200
That's not the lifestyle
of "The Tribal Chief" Roman Reigns,

678
00:47:02,266 --> 00:47:08,100
but that's because Roman Reigns
has special counsel.

679
00:47:08,166 --> 00:47:11,366
Roman Reigns has The Wiseman.

680
00:47:11,433 --> 00:47:16,833
Roman Reigns has Paul Heyman.

681
00:47:17,533 --> 00:47:22,799
If you defeat Roman Reigns
for these championships, which you won't,

682
00:47:22,866 --> 00:47:25,066
but if you do,

683
00:47:25,966 --> 00:47:30,200
you won't have Paul Heyman with you,

684
00:47:30,266 --> 00:47:33,133
will you, Cody Rhodes?

685
00:47:34,799 --> 00:47:36,666
Let's do the math

686
00:47:36,733 --> 00:47:41,333
playing to this notion that Cody Rhodes
defeats Roman Reigns.

687
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:44,200
What will your life be like?

688
00:47:44,266 --> 00:47:45,700
First of all,

689
00:47:45,766 --> 00:47:52,233
200 days a year on the road
defending these championships.

690
00:47:52,299 --> 00:47:55,866
40 to 50, let's mark it up 50.

691
00:47:55,933 --> 00:48:01,200
50 days a year doing charity appearances
and red carpets.

692
00:48:01,266 --> 00:48:02,833
Now we're at 250.

693
00:48:02,900 --> 00:48:05,566
30 days a year overseas

694
00:48:05,633 --> 00:48:10,100
promoting the general brand
of World Wrestling Entertainment.

695
00:48:10,166 --> 00:48:11,500
Now we're at 280.

696
00:48:11,566 --> 00:48:16,433
Another 20 days promoting WrestleMania,
SummerSlam, Survivor Series,

697
00:48:16,500 --> 00:48:22,566
Royal Rumble, Money in the Bank, Backlash,
I don't know, Peoria.

698
00:48:22,633 --> 00:48:26,366
Oh, let's not forget to promote
the title defenses in Peoria.

699
00:48:26,433 --> 00:48:30,100
Now we're up to, what,
300, 305 days a year?

700
00:48:30,166 --> 00:48:32,966
That means 60 days at home.

701
00:48:33,033 --> 00:48:34,799
What happens to those 60 days?

702
00:48:34,866 --> 00:48:39,000
20 of them on Spike calls, Skype calls,

703
00:48:39,066 --> 00:48:43,866
what do you call it, Zoom calls,
promoting the product, meetings?

704
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:49,500
What your brother Dustin so famously said

705
00:48:49,566 --> 00:48:53,366
when your father, "The American Dream"
Dusty Rhodes, was on the road,

706
00:48:53,433 --> 00:48:55,100
he was never home.

707
00:48:55,166 --> 00:48:58,600
Even when he was home, he was never home.

708
00:48:59,933 --> 00:49:02,900
Is that the life you want
for your wife and child?

709
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,299
That's what you want
for your family, Cody?

710
00:49:07,366 --> 00:49:13,033
Is that the sacrifice that you're willing
to make for these titles?

711
00:49:14,733 --> 00:49:16,400
I know what you're thinking.

712
00:49:17,266 --> 00:49:23,200
I'm about to say something really vile
and vulgar and contemptible like,

713
00:49:23,266 --> 00:49:25,000
"Hey, don't worry, Cody.

714
00:49:25,066 --> 00:49:29,166
On a cold winter night,
Roman Reigns will keep your wife warm."

715
00:49:29,233 --> 00:49:33,299
I would never say something like that.

716
00:49:35,166 --> 00:49:39,000
Roman Reigns is a happily married man,

717
00:49:42,933 --> 00:49:44,700
but I'm not.

718
00:49:51,266 --> 00:49:55,500
I assure you, Cody Rhodes,

719
00:49:55,900 --> 00:50:00,000
that's when you're going to find out
that your WrestleMania dreams

720
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:06,633
are going to become
your own personal nightmare.

721
00:50:06,700 --> 00:50:13,700
[crowd boos]

722
00:50:23,233 --> 00:50:30,233
[crowd chants "Cody"]

723
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:35,500
Damn. Roman Reigns is--

724
00:50:36,733 --> 00:50:38,366
Roman's great.

725
00:50:40,333 --> 00:50:41,966
You're great, Roman.

726
00:50:42,466 --> 00:50:49,466
I have seen this play before.
Do not send this man again.

727
00:50:49,866 --> 00:50:51,833
We haven't come face to face yet,

728
00:50:51,899 --> 00:50:54,799
we probably will
and it will probably be very soon

729
00:50:54,866 --> 00:51:00,899
and I will say the same thing to you now
that I'm going to say then.

730
00:51:02,866 --> 00:51:04,733
You are without a doubt

731
00:51:05,133 --> 00:51:09,600
the greatest
WWE Undisputed Universal Champion

732
00:51:09,666 --> 00:51:11,700
in the history of the company.

733
00:51:11,766 --> 00:51:15,533
You the current best champion
in all of sports,

734
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,500
but it doesn't change a damn thing.

735
00:51:18,566 --> 00:51:23,866
I have to finish the story.

736
00:51:23,933 --> 00:51:28,433
[crowd cheers]

737
00:51:28,500 --> 00:51:33,500
I beat you at WrestleMania.

738
00:51:35,233 --> 00:51:37,500
["Kingdom" playing]

739
00:51:37,566 --> 00:51:41,433
[Corey] "The Wiseman" Paul Hayman
doing his very best

740
00:51:41,500 --> 00:51:45,500
to get deep under the skin
of the American Nightmare,

741
00:51:45,566 --> 00:51:49,433
and from the look in Cody's eyes,
it's working.

742
00:51:49,833 --> 00:51:53,466
To the detriment,
perhaps, of Roman Reigns.

743
00:51:53,533 --> 00:51:57,100
Trust me.
We know how capable Cody Rhodes is.

744
00:51:57,166 --> 00:51:59,666
When The Wiseman makes this personal,

745
00:51:59,733 --> 00:52:02,533
Cody is going to take
all of that vitriol inside,

746
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:04,399
shift it toward Roman Reigns,

747
00:52:04,466 --> 00:52:07,633
and this collision at WrestleMania
is going to be one for the history books.

748
00:52:07,700 --> 00:52:08,966
Yeah, I couldn't agree anymore.

749
00:52:09,033 --> 00:52:12,266
Igniting that fire underneath Cody Rhodes
right now is Paul Hayman.

750
00:52:12,333 --> 00:52:15,633
Less than six weeks to go
until the Showcase of the Immortals

751
00:52:15,700 --> 00:52:19,366
where Asuka will hope to become
a three-time Raw Women's Champion.

752
00:52:19,433 --> 00:52:21,333
That's because,
at the Elimination Chamber,

753
00:52:21,399 --> 00:52:23,700
she was left inside with one Carmella,

754
00:52:23,766 --> 00:52:25,933
and I thought Carmella
was going to get it done here.

755
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:27,866
[Corey] The closing moments
inside the Chamber,

756
00:52:27,933 --> 00:52:29,733
an exchange back and forth.

757
00:52:29,799 --> 00:52:32,333
Neither woman able to sustain
an upper hand

758
00:52:32,399 --> 00:52:35,166
after working as a team moments earlier.

759
00:52:35,233 --> 00:52:38,066
Just when it seemed as though
the Princess of Staten Island

760
00:52:38,133 --> 00:52:40,500
had punched her ticket to La La Land,

761
00:52:40,966 --> 00:52:45,000
The Empress of Tomorrow
reminded the WWE Universe

762
00:52:45,066 --> 00:52:48,233
that no one is ready for Asuka.

763
00:52:48,299 --> 00:52:50,933
Perhaps not even Bianca Belair.

764
00:52:51,766 --> 00:52:58,766
["You Can't Hide" playing]

765
00:53:26,633 --> 00:53:30,700
[Corey] Two nights ago, this woman
endured the Elimination Chamber

766
00:53:30,766 --> 00:53:33,600
and emerged victorious. [chuckles]

767
00:53:33,666 --> 00:53:36,066
There is no rest for the weary.

768
00:53:36,133 --> 00:53:37,700
[Kevin Patrick] There certainly is not.

769
00:53:37,766 --> 00:53:41,399
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

770
00:53:41,466 --> 00:53:45,000
Introducing first, from Osaka, Japan,

771
00:53:45,066 --> 00:53:47,966
Asuka.

772
00:53:48,033 --> 00:53:52,100
[Corey] Asuka looking to do her best
to keep her skill set razor-sharp

773
00:53:52,166 --> 00:53:54,600
as she prepares for WrestleMania

774
00:53:54,666 --> 00:53:57,166
and the
Raw Women's Championship opportunity.

775
00:53:57,233 --> 00:53:58,600
[Kevin Patrick] If she gets there.

776
00:53:58,666 --> 00:54:03,399
After a match tonight with the deranged,
The Maniacal, Nikki Cross.

777
00:54:03,466 --> 00:54:05,966
[Corey] Of course, the entire WWE Universe

778
00:54:06,033 --> 00:54:08,299
buzzing about
the Showcase of the Immortals,

779
00:54:08,366 --> 00:54:09,899
WrestleMania in Hollywood.

780
00:54:09,966 --> 00:54:12,733
Now, last time
we had WrestleMania in Hollywood,

781
00:54:12,799 --> 00:54:14,200
the superstars did their best

782
00:54:14,266 --> 00:54:18,500
to reimagine
some iconic movie moments of their own.

783
00:54:18,566 --> 00:54:20,200
Well, we're doing it again this year,

784
00:54:20,266 --> 00:54:24,000
and let's just say, this time,
it's no laughing matter.

[blues rock music playing]

786
00:55:34,666 --> 00:55:36,466
[in a gravelly voice] What was that?

787
00:55:37,700 --> 00:55:39,933
Ooh, it's you. Kind of scared me.

788
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,100
Up there. What was it?

789
00:55:42,566 --> 00:55:44,933
Interpretive dance.
Helps me collect my thoughts.

790
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:46,166
And?

791
00:55:46,233 --> 00:55:50,033
I can't stop thinking about WrestleMania.

792
00:55:50,100 --> 00:55:53,566
No one can.
The whole city is on the edge of its seat.

793
00:55:53,966 --> 00:55:56,399
I didn't know you were
such a close talker.

794
00:55:56,466 --> 00:55:58,000
What's with the face paint?

795
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:00,666
It's exfoliating. What's with the voice?

796
00:56:00,733 --> 00:56:04,933
[grunts] Got to run.
Late for The Man cave.

797
00:56:06,100 --> 00:56:07,899
I didn't know we had a man cave.

798
00:56:09,100 --> 00:56:10,333

799
00:56:10,899 --> 00:56:12,433

Asuka is headed to WrestleMania
to take on The EST.

at the Showcase of the Immortals?

an agent of chaos.

from Glasgow, Scotland,

813
00:57:09,866 --> 00:57:13,166
Nikki Cross.

814
00:57:13,899 --> 00:57:16,500
[Kevin Patrick] Let's go back to last week
on Monday Night Raw.

815
00:57:16,566 --> 00:57:19,899
It was Raw versus SmackDown.
Six-Woman Tag Team action, Corey.

816
00:57:19,966 --> 00:57:22,633
-Asuka turned on her own teammates.
-[Corey] That's right.

817
00:57:22,700 --> 00:57:26,700
It was Carmella, Nikki Cross,
and Asuka representing Raw,

818
00:57:26,766 --> 00:57:29,500
but no one was ready for Asuka.

819
00:57:29,566 --> 00:57:32,533
Not even her own Tag Team partners.

820
00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:35,366
The Empress of Tomorrow
has a renewed focus

821
00:57:35,433 --> 00:57:39,299
and is perhaps more dangerous than ever.

822
00:57:39,366 --> 00:57:41,366
First, it was her own Tag Team partners,

823
00:57:41,433 --> 00:57:44,399
and then it was Liv Morgan
from the opposing team

824

forced to submit
to this agonizing submission.

825
00:57:48,933 --> 00:57:50,799
Asuka would continue her dominance

The bell already rang, Bianca,

you can do champ things.

I love arguing with myself,
I'm great at it.

834

[Kevin Patrick] Bianca Belair,
the proud Raw Women's Champion.

835

Since WrestleMania of last year,

836
00:58:22,366 --> 00:58:25,933
approaching a full calendar year
of dominance for Bianca Belair.

[Corey] This is a woman
who has now headlined WrestleMania twice.

Bianca Belair may not have
the resume that Asuka has,

839
00:58:35,299 --> 00:58:37,633
but Belair has certainly been one of,

840
00:58:37,700 --> 00:58:42,833
if not the most dominant champions
in recent WWE history.

841
00:58:42,899 --> 00:58:47,066
It looks like "The EST" wants to get
a closer look at tonight's proceedings.

842
00:58:49,166 --> 00:58:52,666
Here we see Nikki out of the gate,
a little short-handed tactics.

843
00:58:52,733 --> 00:58:55,100
Just raining down right hands on Asuka.

844
00:58:55,166 --> 00:58:57,966
[Kevin Patrick] You have to wonder
what condition they are in, Corey,

845
00:58:58,033 --> 00:59:00,633
just 48 hours removed
from the Elimination Chamber.

846
00:59:00,700 --> 00:59:05,466
Nikki Cross, remember, barreled
through the pods by Raquel Rodriguez,

847
00:59:05,533 --> 00:59:07,466
jumped from the top as well.

848
00:59:08,766 --> 00:59:11,500
[Corey] Listen, you got to fight
through the pain this is WWE.

849
00:59:11,566 --> 00:59:13,399
As we said when Asuka
was making her entrance,

850
00:59:13,466 --> 00:59:16,000
there is no rest for the weary.

851
00:59:16,066 --> 00:59:19,633
You've got to be at the top of your game
every night of the year.

852
00:59:19,700 --> 00:59:23,466
As Asuka is reminding Nikki Cross
right now with these Muay Thai knees.

853
00:59:25,133 --> 00:59:27,000
[Kevin Patrick] The rapid offensive Asuka.

854
00:59:27,066 --> 00:59:30,899
You mentioned renewed focus in Asuka
that looks devastating.

855
00:59:30,966 --> 00:59:34,033
As she continues to wrap up the victories,
and the brutality.

856
00:59:35,233 --> 00:59:37,666
[Corey] Asuka just teeing off now
on Nikki.

857
00:59:39,533 --> 00:59:43,033
I think perhaps the most terrifying
aspect of Asuka's game

858
00:59:43,100 --> 00:59:47,200
is the fact that
she is grinning from ear to ear.

859
00:59:48,633 --> 00:59:50,566
Nearly turned Nikki's lights out.

860
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:55,533
-[Kevin Patrick] Perilous situation.
-[Corey] Oh, my God.

861
00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:57,466
Asuka might have broken her foot.

862
00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:02,399
Now Nikki looking to capitalize.

863
01:00:05,266 --> 01:00:07,799
-Nikki in complete control.
-[Kevin Patrick] Oh, man.

864
01:00:08,299 --> 01:00:11,666
Nikki Cross has Asuka in agony.
Is it Nikki's night tonight?

865
01:00:11,733 --> 01:00:14,799
[Corey] I don't know,
but The EST is enjoying what she's seeing.

866
01:00:18,433 --> 01:00:20,166
[Kevin Patrick] At the Chamber
on Saturday,

867
01:00:20,233 --> 01:00:24,633
Asuka booked her ticket to WrestleMania
to take on Bianca Belair

868
01:00:24,700 --> 01:00:26,133
for the Raw Women's Championship.

869
01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:29,766
Here we are 48 hours later
in a one-on-one match with Nikki Cross.

870
01:00:29,833 --> 01:00:33,633
Bianca Belair "The EST" watching on here
close to our announce desk.

871
01:00:33,700 --> 01:00:37,633
[Corey] Bianca has never met a challenge
she was not excited to accept.

872
01:00:37,700 --> 01:00:40,766
Despite competing against Asuka
in the past,

873
01:00:40,833 --> 01:00:44,100
Bianca has never encountered this Asuka.

874
01:00:44,166 --> 01:00:47,666
Oh, shoulders down.
Shoulders down briefly.

875
01:00:49,066 --> 01:00:53,600
The Road to WrestleMania is about
to enter its most treacherous stretch

876
01:00:53,666 --> 01:00:54,966
for all competitors.

877
01:00:55,033 --> 01:00:59,666
Every matchup is a potential trap.
Oh, shoulders down again.

878
01:00:59,733 --> 01:01:01,700
[Kevin Patrick]
Asuka looking to put away Nikki.

879
01:01:01,766 --> 01:01:03,100
Just about gets the shoulders up.

880
01:01:03,166 --> 01:01:06,100
[Corey] Every time you step into the ring,
you're risking injury.

881
01:01:06,166 --> 01:01:09,133
You want to enter
the Showcase of the Immortals at 100%.

882
01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:13,033
As we look again at Asuka
propelling herself from the second rope

883
01:01:13,100 --> 01:01:15,666
through her opponent Nikki Cross.

884
01:01:16,100 --> 01:01:20,333
Right now knowing that Asuka has earned
the opportunity to challenge Bianca

885
01:01:20,399 --> 01:01:22,366
puts a target on Asuka's back.

886
01:01:22,433 --> 01:01:24,166
There are going to be
a litany of superstars

887
01:01:24,233 --> 01:01:26,399
who don't have paths to WrestleMania

888
01:01:26,466 --> 01:01:30,333
who realize that maybe
you need to take off this opportunity.

889
01:01:30,399 --> 01:01:34,233
Right now Nikki realizing full well
that if I beat the challenger,

890
01:01:34,299 --> 01:01:36,166
that might put me in title contention.

891
01:01:36,233 --> 01:01:39,100
[Kevin Patrick] Using the apron
to her advantage, she's battering Asuka.

892
01:01:39,166 --> 01:01:40,899
She's caught on the inside.

893
01:01:47,299 --> 01:01:50,666
Dragging Asuka to her feet
and back inside the ring they go.

894
01:01:52,333 --> 01:01:54,566
This new Asuka that we're seeing,
this ruthless,

895
01:01:54,633 --> 01:01:56,100
this sadistic look in her face.

896
01:01:56,166 --> 01:01:58,633
I wonder what's changed with Asuka
to trigger this.

897
01:01:58,700 --> 01:02:00,133
[Corey] Well, it's not new, Kevin.

898
01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:03,466
It's almost the return to form,
this is who Asuka once upon a time

899
01:02:03,533 --> 01:02:06,600
was, perhaps even more so now than then.

900
01:02:06,666 --> 01:02:09,299
This is The Empress of Tomorrow
in full effect.

901
01:02:09,366 --> 01:02:14,933
A deserved challenger
for the Raw Women's Championship.

902
01:02:15,700 --> 01:02:19,033
Bianca is nodding with me in agreement.

903
01:02:19,566 --> 01:02:21,633
-Cover.
-[Kevin Patrick] Devastating from Asuka.

904
01:02:21,700 --> 01:02:25,066
Now for the victory. Nikki Cross.
Shoulders up.

905
01:02:25,899 --> 01:02:27,933
[Corey] It looks like Bianca
is a bit impressed

906
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:29,333
by what she's seeing.

907
01:02:29,399 --> 01:02:33,899
Belair knows she is going to be in
for the fight of her life at WrestleMania

908
01:02:33,966 --> 01:02:39,066
as we look again at Asuka delivering
an epic DDT from the middle rope.

909
01:02:39,466 --> 01:02:41,933
[Kevin Patrick] Bianca Belair
in devastating form herself,

910
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:44,899
winning a Triple Threat Match
against Becky Lynch and Bayley

911
01:02:44,966 --> 01:02:46,166
just last week.

912
01:02:46,233 --> 01:02:48,733
Bayley to come later on tonight
with Ding Dong, Hello

913
01:02:49,633 --> 01:02:51,666
with IYO SKY and Dakota Kai.

914
01:02:51,733 --> 01:02:56,033
[Corey] Several other individuals
that The EST is very familiar with.

915
01:02:56,100 --> 01:02:59,700
Now The Empress beginning to tee off.

916
01:02:59,766 --> 01:03:02,933
This could be
the beginning of the end for Nikki.

917
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:04,633
Well, maybe not.

918
01:03:04,700 --> 01:03:06,766
-[Kevin Patrick] Nikki asking for more.
-[Corey] Oh.

919
01:03:08,333 --> 01:03:10,899
Perhaps Nikki
is a bit of a glutton for punishment.

920
01:03:10,966 --> 01:03:12,466
Able to hoist The Empress up.

921
01:03:12,533 --> 01:03:14,799
[Kevin Patrick] She's powerful,
the former Raw Champion

922
01:03:14,866 --> 01:03:16,166
-Nikki Cross.
-[Corey] Boom.

923
01:03:16,233 --> 01:03:18,000
[Kevin Patrick] Asuka connects
with the kick.

924
01:03:18,799 --> 01:03:22,200
[Corey] Asuka looking for the Asuka lock.
Doesn't have her hands cinched.

925
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:25,333
-Great counter by Nikki.
-[Kevin Patrick] Nikki now--

926
01:03:25,399 --> 01:03:28,899
What a victory this would be
for Nikki Cross if she can get it done.

927
01:03:28,966 --> 01:03:30,700
Nikki with-- Oh, Asuka kicking out.

928
01:03:30,766 --> 01:03:35,000
[Corey] Wow, you want to talk about
crushing the momentum of the challenger

929
01:03:35,066 --> 01:03:36,966
on the Road to WrestleMania,

930
01:03:37,033 --> 01:03:41,633
Nikki Cross could prove to be
a massive speed bump for Asuka.

931
01:03:42,166 --> 01:03:44,233
[Kevin Patrick]
Nikki hitting her own kind of crazy.

932
01:03:44,299 --> 01:03:48,299
Now dragging Asuka back up.
Nikki finding momentum here.

933
01:03:48,366 --> 01:03:51,466
What can Asuka do to respond? Asuka now.

934
01:03:51,533 --> 01:03:52,500
[crowd cheers]

935
01:03:52,566 --> 01:03:56,033
[Corey] The submission is cinched in.

936
01:03:56,600 --> 01:03:59,500
[Kevin Patrick] Armbar. Look at the agony
in the face of Nikki Cross.

937
01:03:59,566 --> 01:04:02,433
[Corey] This can tear your shoulders
clean out of the socket.

938
01:04:02,500 --> 01:04:06,299
Asuka is enjoying every second.
Nikki Cross in agony.

939
01:04:06,366 --> 01:04:07,833
-[woman] Ring the bell.
-[bell rings]

940
01:04:07,899 --> 01:04:10,166
-[Kevin Patrick] That's it.
-[Corey] Bianca, beware.

941
01:04:10,233 --> 01:04:11,600
["You Can't Hide" playing]

942
01:04:11,666 --> 01:04:14,066
[announcer] Here's the winner
by submission.

943
01:04:14,133 --> 01:04:17,633
Asuka.

944
01:04:18,066 --> 01:04:22,399
[Corey] Thus far, no one
has been ready for Asuka.

945
01:04:22,466 --> 01:04:26,066
Judging by the look on the face
of the Raw Women's Champion,

946
01:04:26,133 --> 01:04:28,933
Bianca thinks she could be the exception.

947
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,766
As we look again at the closing moments.

948
01:04:31,833 --> 01:04:35,500
The terrifying submission ability of Asuka

949
01:04:35,566 --> 01:04:39,100
on full display for the WWE Universe.

950
01:04:39,166 --> 01:04:41,700
Nikki Cross forced to submit.

951
01:04:42,533 --> 01:04:46,466
Here we go.
It's like looking into a crystal ball.

952
01:04:50,466 --> 01:04:57,466
[crowd chants "EST"]

953
01:05:11,566 --> 01:05:14,700
[Kevin Patrick] WrestleMania
we are coming for you.

954
01:05:14,766 --> 01:05:16,466
Just 40 days away.

955
01:05:17,333 --> 01:05:19,066
Bianca Belair will def-- Oh.

956
01:05:20,966 --> 01:05:22,000
[Corey] Oh, no.

957
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:27,466
[Asuka laughs]

958
01:05:29,666 --> 01:05:32,233
["You Can't Hide" playing]

959
01:05:32,299 --> 01:05:39,266
[Corey] I don't know that I have ever seen
that look on the face of Bianca Belair.

960
01:05:40,066 --> 01:05:42,633
Asuka with the mind games,

961
01:05:42,700 --> 01:05:47,633
and I assure you they will only get worse
as we head to Hollywood

962
01:05:47,700 --> 01:05:50,433
where the Raw women's title
will be on the line.

963
01:05:52,899 --> 01:05:55,266
I'm standing by
hoping to get a word with Carmella.

964
01:05:55,333 --> 01:05:58,466
Carmella, now that Asuka
has won Elimination Chamber

965
01:05:58,533 --> 01:06:00,533
and is going on to WrestleMania,

966
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:03,766
have you given any thought
into your own Road to WrestleMania?

967
01:06:04,166 --> 01:06:07,466
Elimination Chamber
was two days ago, Cath. Two. Okay.

968
01:06:07,533 --> 01:06:10,799
So no, I haven't thought up
with an entirely new game plan

969
01:06:10,866 --> 01:06:13,700
to get to WrestleMania
in the last 48 hours.

970
01:06:14,100 --> 01:06:15,766
You know what I have thought of, though?

971
01:06:16,333 --> 01:06:17,299
Asuka.

972
01:06:17,700 --> 01:06:20,000
That freak thinks that she can mess
with the moonwalking,

973
01:06:20,066 --> 01:06:22,666
trash-talking Princess of Staten Island.

974
01:06:23,066 --> 01:06:24,566
I don't think so.

975
01:06:24,966 --> 01:06:27,799
I'm about to make Bianca's win
at WrestleMania real easy

976
01:06:27,866 --> 01:06:30,433
where I deliver one hell of a receipt
to Asuka

977
01:06:30,500 --> 01:06:35,333
because Mella is money.

978
01:06:37,566 --> 01:06:40,366
Well, on that note, I'm going
to send it back-- Oh, hold on.

979
01:06:40,433 --> 01:06:41,500
Seth.

980
01:06:42,766 --> 01:06:46,200
Seth, you seem to be in a very good mood

981
01:06:46,266 --> 01:06:50,566
considering everything that went down
at Elimination Chamber with Logan Paul.

982
01:06:50,633 --> 01:06:51,766
Would you care to comment?

983
01:06:51,833 --> 01:06:54,399
Oh, mmm.

984
01:06:54,466 --> 01:07:01,066
Two times now Logan Paul
has ruined my WrestleMania plans,

985
01:07:01,133 --> 01:07:02,700
and he thinks this is a game.

986
01:07:02,766 --> 01:07:04,966
He wants to hit me with my own move,

987
01:07:05,033 --> 01:07:08,933
he wants to get on social media
and call me a clown.

988
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:12,266
[laughs]

989
01:07:12,333 --> 01:07:16,833
Logan, the joke's on you.

990
01:07:18,233 --> 01:07:19,466
[chuckles]

991
01:07:19,866 --> 01:07:26,000
You see, Logan may not be very familiar
with a certain side of me,

992
01:07:26,066 --> 01:07:29,733
but anybody who's ever gotten in my way

993
01:07:29,799 --> 01:07:34,866
knows that side all too well.

994
01:07:36,766 --> 01:07:39,433
I'm going to find Logan Paul,

995
01:07:40,366 --> 01:07:44,433
and I'm going to hurt Logan Paul.

996
01:07:44,500 --> 01:07:46,366
[crowd cheers]

997
01:07:46,433 --> 01:07:48,933
[laughs]

998
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:52,133
Since Logan Paul isn't here tonight,

999
01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:56,366
the man who wants to take credit
for all of Logan's success,

1000
01:07:57,399 --> 01:07:58,899
The Miz

1001
01:07:59,933 --> 01:08:05,633
seems like a perfect surrogate
for suffering.

1002
01:08:07,366 --> 01:08:11,066
[laughs]

1003
01:08:11,133 --> 01:08:15,733
[rap rock music playing]

1004
01:08:15,799 --> 01:08:17,966
[Kevin Patrick] Did you see
the satisfaction in Rollins

1005
01:08:18,033 --> 01:08:19,966
when he said the word suffering?

1006
01:08:20,033 --> 01:08:22,166
What has The Miz got coming his way?

1007
01:08:22,233 --> 01:08:26,766
Last week and his big red boots,
Rollins stamped all over The Miz.

1008
01:08:26,833 --> 01:08:29,866
They're set to go one-on-one
here on Monday Night Raw.

1009
01:08:29,933 --> 01:08:31,166
It's next.

1010
01:08:33,399 --> 01:08:40,399
[pop rock music playing]

1011
01:08:50,866 --> 01:08:55,000
[Kevin Patrick] Man, we love our fans.
The WWE Universe always supporting here.

1012
01:08:55,066 --> 01:08:57,700
Here in Ottawa tonight, an electric crowd.

1013
01:08:57,766 --> 01:09:00,566
A couple of nights ago
at the Elimination Chamber,

1014
01:09:00,633 --> 01:09:04,000
two of the most dominant forces
to ever grace WWE collided.

1015
01:09:04,066 --> 01:09:07,666
It looked to be going Bobby Lashley's way.
Lesnar made to fall to sleep.

1016
01:09:07,733 --> 01:09:08,899
Then a low blow.

1017
01:09:08,966 --> 01:09:12,066
[Corey] A rare sight of Brock Lesnar
"The Beast Incarnate"

1018
01:09:12,133 --> 01:09:15,399
feeling desperate in the heat of battle.

1019
01:09:15,466 --> 01:09:17,266
That was going to force
a disqualification.

1020
01:09:17,333 --> 01:09:20,633
I assure you, this is going
to cost Brock Lesnar

1021
01:09:20,700 --> 01:09:23,899
a significant amount of money.

1022
01:09:23,966 --> 01:09:26,066
F-5ing the official.

1023
01:09:26,133 --> 01:09:31,966
The Beast was not done just yet,
living up to the F5 namesake,

1024
01:09:32,033 --> 01:09:37,200
the force of nature known as Brock Lesnar,
laying waste to Lashley,

1025
01:09:37,266 --> 01:09:40,966
to our official Chad Patton
and the entire ringside area.

1026
01:09:41,033 --> 01:09:43,599
["Next Big Thing" playing]

1027
01:09:43,666 --> 01:09:45,333
[crowd cheers]

1028
01:09:46,466 --> 01:09:50,833
Brock Lesnar, you, sir, are a coward.

1029
01:09:51,766 --> 01:09:56,566
You realized that you couldn't escape
Bobby Lashley's Hurt Lock,

1030
01:09:56,633 --> 01:10:01,200
so you got yourself disqualified
at the Elimination Chamber.

1031
01:10:07,066 --> 01:10:13,000
The 7'3" 416-pound "Nigerian Giant" Omos

1032
01:10:13,400 --> 01:10:17,733
is issuing a challenge
to face you at WrestleMania.

1033
01:10:18,666 --> 01:10:21,900
Show up next week
to accept the challenge in person

1034
01:10:21,966 --> 01:10:26,966
if you have the intestinal fortitude.

1035
01:10:31,033 --> 01:10:36,833
[Kevin Patrick] Could you imagine,
will The Beast accept Omos' challenge?

1036
01:10:36,900 --> 01:10:40,466
That would literally be one of the
biggest matches ever at WrestleMania.

1037
01:10:40,533 --> 01:10:44,533
[Corey] That is absolutely incredible.
We'll find out next week on Raw.

1038
01:10:44,599 --> 01:10:48,033
[Kevin Patrick] We'll find out next week
what was in the envelope.

[bell rings]

1040
01:10:50,133 --> 01:10:53,833
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1041
01:10:53,900 --> 01:10:57,066
Introducing first,
residing in Hollywood, California,

1042
01:10:57,133 --> 01:10:59,500
weighing 221 pounds,

1043
01:10:59,566 --> 01:11:03,233
The Miz.

1044
01:11:03,300 --> 01:11:05,599
[Kevin Patrick] Miz told me
he was absolutely embarrassed

1045
01:11:05,666 --> 01:11:08,933
when he was stomped
in those big red boots of Seth Rollins.

1046
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:11,666
He said he became a meme,
but then he picked himself up,

1047
01:11:11,733 --> 01:11:15,033
and he was competing
in the NBA Celebrity All-Star Game.

1048
01:11:15,099 --> 01:11:17,700
[Corey] I have sources
that tell me the Cleveland Cavaliers

1049
01:11:17,766 --> 01:11:20,066
are doing their best
to clear a little cap space

1050
01:11:20,133 --> 01:11:22,733
so they could sign the A-Lister
for next season.

1051
01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:25,900
It'd be the biggest thing
in Cleveland sports since Lebron left.

1052
01:11:25,966 --> 01:11:27,166
[Kevin Patrick] Oh, come on.

1053
01:11:27,233 --> 01:11:30,766
["Visionary" playing]

1054
01:11:30,833 --> 01:11:33,266
[announcer] His opponent,
from Davenport, Iowa,

1055
01:11:33,333 --> 01:11:36,500
weighing in at 225 pounds,

1056
01:11:36,566 --> 01:11:42,266
Seth "Freakin" Rollins.

1057
01:11:42,333 --> 01:11:44,533
[Kevin Patrick] Dancing aside, Corey,
there's a fire

1058
01:11:44,599 --> 01:11:47,000
in the eyes of Seth "Freakin" Rollins.

1059
01:11:47,066 --> 01:11:50,233
At the Royal Rumble Match,
he was thrown out by Logan Paul.

1060
01:11:50,300 --> 01:11:52,633
He then made him a clown on social media.

1061
01:11:52,700 --> 01:11:56,466
He was humiliated then
at the Elimination Chamber by Logan Paul

1062
01:11:56,533 --> 01:11:59,700
who used his own finishing move,
the stomp, on Rollins.

1063
01:11:59,766 --> 01:12:02,733
Can you imagine what's going on
in the mind right now of the Visionary?

1064
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:05,500
[Corey] I don't think we need to do
much imagining, Kevin Patrick.

1065
01:12:05,566 --> 01:12:08,066
Seth Rollins has been relatively open
and honest

1066
01:12:08,133 --> 01:12:11,566
regarding his feelings toward Logan Paul.

1067
01:12:11,633 --> 01:12:16,566
Seth Rollins has downright called
Logan Paul a tourist in this business.

1068
01:12:16,633 --> 01:12:21,900
Seth has very little respect
for what Logan Paul does here in WWE.

1069
01:12:21,966 --> 01:12:25,966
This is not social media,
this is the Visionary's world,

1070
01:12:26,033 --> 01:12:27,533
but let's be honest,

1071
01:12:27,599 --> 01:12:33,400
what Logan Paul has done has taken
a great deal of intestinal fortitude.

1072
01:12:33,466 --> 01:12:39,599
I would dare say, Logan Paul's manhood
rivals that of only The Miz.

1073
01:12:39,666 --> 01:12:42,833
-I'm talking huge.
-[Kevin Patrick] Oh, come on.

1074
01:12:43,466 --> 01:12:47,233
[Corey] If you doubt me, Kevin,
why else do you think that Maryse

1075
01:12:47,300 --> 01:12:49,333
would come all the way here to Ottawa

1076
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:52,233
just to present Miz
with their anniversary gift

1077
01:12:52,300 --> 01:12:56,700
that was too big and too expensive
to travel across the border?

1078
01:12:56,766 --> 01:12:59,033
[Kevin Patrick] Nine years married today,
Miz told me,

1079
01:12:59,099 --> 01:13:01,766
he's already planning
for their 10-year anniversary next year.

straight in on The Miz.

01:13:15,933 --> 01:13:17,566
[referee] Come on. One. Two…

1084
01:13:17,633 --> 01:13:19,766
[Corey] This is what you
referenced earlier, Kevin,

1085
01:13:19,833 --> 01:13:23,433
it's almost as though Logan Paul
flipped some sort of switch

1086
01:13:23,500 --> 01:13:25,166
in the mind of Seth Rollins.

1087
01:13:25,233 --> 01:13:29,500
Trust me, we know how personally
Rollins takes all of these attacks

1088
01:13:29,566 --> 01:13:32,900
from Logan Paul,
even in the Royal Rumble Match.

1089
01:13:33,300 --> 01:13:34,233
[Kevin] Oh, watch out.

1090
01:13:34,300 --> 01:13:37,900
[Corey] It was last year
that Rollins was a superstar

1091
01:13:37,966 --> 01:13:39,733
without a path to WrestleMania.

1092
01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:44,266
Seth had to put himself through hell
to get an opportunity

1093
01:13:44,333 --> 01:13:46,500
at the biggest show of the year.

1094
01:13:46,566 --> 01:13:49,400
Rollins doesn't want
to find himself in that boat again.

1095
01:13:49,466 --> 01:13:52,866
[Kevin Patrick] Well said.
WrestleMania only 40 days away.

1096
01:13:52,933 --> 01:13:57,433
Seth Rollins is one angry superstar
right now, back into the ring he goes.

1097
01:14:04,700 --> 01:14:09,099
[Corey] Look at this. Rollins just ripping
at the moneymaker of the A-Lister.

1098
01:14:09,966 --> 01:14:14,200
[Kevin Patrick] Two times now, Logan Paul
has ruined my WrestleMania plans.

1099
01:14:14,266 --> 01:14:19,366
He wants to take it out on the mind
that launched Logan Paul's WWE career,

1100
01:14:19,433 --> 01:14:20,866
and that is The Miz.

1101
01:14:22,733 --> 01:14:25,333
[Corey] Rollins picking up speed,
here we go.

1102
01:14:25,400 --> 01:14:29,033
[Kevin Patrick] Sent to the outside.
Miz through the announce desk.

1103
01:14:29,099 --> 01:14:31,133
[Corey] I think I might have
just saved his life.

1104
01:14:33,599 --> 01:14:35,133
Help him, Kevin.

1105
01:14:37,966 --> 01:14:39,466
Rollins giving chase.

1106
01:14:39,533 --> 01:14:42,599
The A-Lister doing his best
to get out of dodge.

1107
01:14:45,433 --> 01:14:48,500
What a brilliant move by the Miz.

[Kevin Patrick]
The Miz looking to end this.

1109

[Kevin Patrick] Hooks the leg.

1110
01:14:51,666 --> 01:14:54,033
The Miz for the victory
over Rollins, who kicks out.

1111
01:14:55,533 --> 01:14:57,566
[Corey] Can Rollins get back in this?

1112
01:15:01,233 --> 01:15:04,233
[Kevin Patrick] The Miz totally in control
here over Seth "Freakin" Rollins.

1113
01:15:04,300 --> 01:15:06,366
One-on-one action
here on Monday Night Raw,

1114
01:15:06,433 --> 01:15:08,166
as Rollins slowly gets back on his feet.

1115
01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:17,200
[Corey] Rollins throwing rights,
blasting off at the A-Lister.

1116
01:15:17,266 --> 01:15:20,666
Here comes the Visionary again,
great counter, shoulders down.

1117
01:15:20,733 --> 01:15:24,233
[Kevin Patrick] Rollins now to put away
The Miz, and kicks out just in time.

1118
01:15:24,700 --> 01:15:28,099
[Corey] Rollins with a series
of sharp knife-Edge chops,

1119
01:15:28,166 --> 01:15:29,766
has the A-Lister reeling.

1120
01:15:29,833 --> 01:15:34,133
Oh, my goodness,
sternum first into the top turnbuckle.

1121
01:15:35,066 --> 01:15:39,133
It's going to drive all the wind
out of Seth "Freakin" Rollins' sails.

1122
01:15:40,266 --> 01:15:44,700
Now, the veteran Miz
making the most of the opportunity.

1123
01:15:45,433 --> 01:15:51,900
You know full well Miz wants to be at 100%
next week when he, a true journalist,

1124
01:15:51,966 --> 01:15:55,599
an unbiased journalist, I feel like
we're wiped with those here at WWE

1125
01:15:55,666 --> 01:15:59,233
when Miz reveals what was in the envelope

1126
01:15:59,300 --> 01:16:02,500
gifted to him
by his beautiful wife Maryse.

1127
01:16:02,566 --> 01:16:05,666
[Kevin Patrick] He's making his way here
on his anniversary today, The Miz.

1128

Both superstars currently down.

1129

[Corey] What did you get them
for their anniversary?

1130
01:16:09,733 --> 01:16:11,133
[Kevin Patrick] Absolutely nothing.

1131
01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:14,000
[Corey] Seth Rollins doing his best
to make it even worse,

1132
01:16:14,066 --> 01:16:16,666
clotheslining Miz out of the corner.

[Corey] Beyond the WWE Universe,
singing the battle hymn of Seth Rollins.

1136
01:16:27,233 --> 01:16:30,599
Notice, Rollins was glaring up
at the WrestleMania sign

1137
01:16:30,666 --> 01:16:36,333
because Seth knows what it feels like
to not have an opportunity to compete

1138
01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:38,466
at this Showcase of the Immortals.

1139
01:16:38,533 --> 01:16:41,233
Rollins does not want
to be caught in that position again.

1140
01:16:41,700 --> 01:16:44,900
[Kevin Patrick] There's a devastating
aggression now in Seth "Freakin" Rollins

1141
01:16:44,966 --> 01:16:47,133
who's turning it on against The Miz.

1142
01:16:49,266 --> 01:16:51,700
The Miz saying earlier on,
"I molded Logan Paul.

1143
01:16:51,766 --> 01:16:56,066
I cost Seth "Freakin" Rollins
his United States Championship opportunity

1144
01:16:56,133 --> 01:16:57,833
at Elimination Chamber."

1145
01:16:57,900 --> 01:17:00,500
A bit of a stretch, if you ask me.

1146
01:17:01,566 --> 01:17:05,300
Miz now.
Seth back on his feet, kick connects.

01:17:13,133 --> 01:17:16,633
[Corey] Rollins realizing
the moment could be upon us.

1149
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:21,866
[Kevin Patrick] Miz evades the danger.
Kick to the midsection.

1150
01:17:21,933 --> 01:17:24,099
Rollins looking for pedigree.

1151
01:17:24,800 --> 01:17:27,133
[Corey] Miz, able to fight out of it.
Jackknife cover.

1152
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:28,466
[Kevin Patrick] Miz now.

1153
01:17:28,533 --> 01:17:31,533
-Rollins wants to turn it around.
-[Corey] Shoulders not down. There we go.

1154
01:17:35,733 --> 01:17:39,766
The A-Lister shoves the Visionary off,
boot to the chin connects.

1155
01:17:39,833 --> 01:17:40,833
[Kevin Patrick] Oh.

1156
01:17:43,033 --> 01:17:44,633
[Corey] Beautiful.

1157
01:17:45,266 --> 01:17:47,033
[Kevin Patrick]
Miz, is this his opportunity?

1158
01:17:47,099 --> 01:17:50,566
Grabs the leg for the cover
and the victory, Rollins kicks out.

1159
01:17:53,466 --> 01:17:55,000
What a match we're witnessing.

The only two-time
WWE Grand Slam Champions,

The Miz and Seth "Freakin" Rollins.

1162
01:18:06,599 --> 01:18:12,966
The Miz, now, basking in the disdain
of the Ottawa WWE Universe.

1163
01:18:16,733 --> 01:18:20,900
Miz giving the signal, we could have
a skull-crushing finale on our hands.

1164
01:18:21,466 --> 01:18:23,066
[Kevin Patrick] Rollins read the danger.

1165
01:18:24,599 --> 01:18:26,833
[Corey] Great athleticism by The Miz.

1166
01:18:27,633 --> 01:18:29,400
Running knee out of the corner.

1167
01:18:29,466 --> 01:18:30,666
That could do it.

1168
01:18:30,733 --> 01:18:33,066
[Kevin Patrick] Miz, for the victory
over Rollins,

1169
01:18:33,133 --> 01:18:35,266
who kicks out at two and a half.

1170
01:18:39,166 --> 01:18:43,166
[Corey] Look how confident Miz
is feeling right now with good reason.

1171
01:18:43,633 --> 01:18:47,733
Miz knows that he is moments away
from closing this one out,

1172
01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:52,533
seven nights away from unveiling
the greatest anniversary gift ever

1173
01:18:52,599 --> 01:18:53,933
from his wife Maryse.

1174
01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:58,566
Let's look at this again, running knee
out of the corner, explosive impact.

1175
01:18:59,033 --> 01:19:01,266
Miz is feeling it right now.

1176
01:19:01,333 --> 01:19:03,900
[Kevin Patrick]
You got to think he's fresh, The Miz.

1177
01:19:04,633 --> 01:19:08,166
Compare that to Seth "Freakin" Rollins
in that grueling Elimination Chamber Match

1178
01:19:08,233 --> 01:19:09,366
just 48 hours ago.

1179
01:19:09,433 --> 01:19:11,533
[Corey] Comparatively speaking,
I agree with you, KP,

1180
01:19:11,599 --> 01:19:12,733
but that's no excuse.

1181
01:19:12,800 --> 01:19:17,766
Rollins accepted this match
knowing full well what he needs to do.

1182
01:19:17,833 --> 01:19:20,333
Rollins knows
what type of competitor Miz is,

1183
01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:25,366
who just mouthed the words "Logan Paul"
to Seth "Freakin" Rollins,

1184
01:19:25,866 --> 01:19:28,066
and Miz might pay for it.

1185
01:19:28,133 --> 01:19:29,933
[Kevin Patrick] He's enraged, Rollins.

1186
01:19:36,966 --> 01:19:39,533
[Corey] Seth, now, teeing off on the Miz,

1187
01:19:40,099 --> 01:19:45,966
but you know deep in the back of his mind,
Seth is thinking about one man.

1188
01:19:46,033 --> 01:19:47,366
[Kevin Patrick] Rollins, stomp.

1189
01:19:49,233 --> 01:19:51,466
[Corey] His name is Logan Paul,

1190
01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:55,833
the man who victimized Rollins
with that very same stomp

1191
01:19:55,900 --> 01:19:58,400
two nights ago in Montreal.

1192
01:19:58,466 --> 01:20:02,766
The man who has drawn the ire
of the Visionary.

1193
01:20:03,933 --> 01:20:08,833
Unfortunately for The Miz,
all of Seth's frustration

1194
01:20:08,900 --> 01:20:13,066
are being taken out
on the head of the A-Lister.

1195
01:20:16,966 --> 01:20:18,833
One more for the road.

1196
01:20:23,599 --> 01:20:30,599
[crowd chants "one more time"]

1197
01:20:30,666 --> 01:20:36,333
[Corey] The Ottawa faithful
are downright sanguinist tonight.

1198
01:20:37,233 --> 01:20:39,733
[Kevin Patrick]
There's an unhinged look about Seth now.

1199
01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:41,500
[Corey] Miz isn't even moving.

1200
01:20:42,766 --> 01:20:46,000
I understand Seth's passion,
but enough is enough.

1201
01:20:46,066 --> 01:20:49,900
[crowd boos]

1202
01:20:49,966 --> 01:20:53,433
[Kevin Patrick] Referee Eddie Orengo
letting Seth know, "get the win, man."

1203
01:20:53,500 --> 01:20:56,266
[Corey] Oh, he's going back for more.
He's going back for more.

1204
01:20:56,333 --> 01:20:59,066
[crowd cheers]

1205
01:20:59,133 --> 01:21:01,099
[bell rings]

1206
01:21:02,566 --> 01:21:04,066
[announcer] Here is your winner

1207
01:21:04,133 --> 01:21:10,433
due to referee stoppage,
Seth "Freakin" Rollins.

1208
01:21:10,500 --> 01:21:13,333
[Corey] Great call by our official

1209
01:21:14,366 --> 01:21:18,833
and what a statement by Seth Rollins.

1210
01:21:18,900 --> 01:21:23,966
Look at the intensity
in the eyes of the Visionary.

1211
01:21:24,566 --> 01:21:29,099
All of this going down
with one man to blame.

1212
01:21:29,500 --> 01:21:32,333
He's a social media megastar

1213
01:21:33,233 --> 01:21:36,833
and he's caught in the crosshairs
of Seth "Freakin" Rollins.

1214
01:21:36,900 --> 01:21:39,366
I know you're super busy,
so I appreciate you listening to me.

1215
01:21:39,433 --> 01:21:41,933
You know what? I want to thank you
for the positive attitude.

1216
01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:43,266
Seriously, it's refreshing.

1217
01:21:43,333 --> 01:21:46,466
If you want to face Asuka next week
on Raw, I'm more than happy to oblige.

1218
01:21:46,533 --> 01:21:48,533
In fact, consider it official.

1219
01:21:48,599 --> 01:21:50,466
-Thanks, honey bunny.
-All right.

1220
01:21:50,866 --> 01:21:51,900
Thanks.

1221
01:21:53,366 --> 01:21:59,833
[cellphone rings]

1222
01:22:00,400 --> 01:22:01,966
This is Adam Pearce.

1223
01:22:02,033 --> 01:22:05,666
[woman on phone]
Hi, this is Chelsea Green.

1224
01:22:05,733 --> 01:22:07,200
Yeah, I'm sure you know who I am.

1225
01:22:07,266 --> 01:22:12,166
Your awful talent relations department
seems to have sent me to Ottawa, Illinois,

1226
01:22:12,233 --> 01:22:14,166
instead of Ottawa, Canada.

1227
01:22:14,233 --> 01:22:18,500
How on earth this did happen?
No, no, no, you know what?

1228
01:22:18,566 --> 01:22:20,200
Actually, don't answer that.

1229
01:22:20,266 --> 01:22:24,033
"How are you going to fix this?"
is the better question.

1230
01:22:24,566 --> 01:22:26,433
You know what?
Let me first apologize, Chelsea.

1231
01:22:26,500 --> 01:22:27,866
I can't imagine how that happened,

1232
01:22:27,933 --> 01:22:30,566
but at least next week we're
in Grand Rapids which is in Michigan,

1233
01:22:30,633 --> 01:22:31,933
which is in the States.

1234
01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:34,933
I'll do this, let me call travel
and I'll get it figured out.

1235
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:37,033
[Chelsea] You can't leave me here,
you know that.

1236
01:22:37,099 --> 01:22:40,233
-This goes against all company policy.
-Chelsea, Chelsea, I can't hear you.

1237
01:22:40,300 --> 01:22:43,966
Maybe the bad connection in Canada.
Must be Monday, I'll talk to you later.

1238
01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:51,400
He's got the look.

1239
01:22:51,466 --> 01:22:53,333
What are those clowns missing?

1240
01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:55,900
I've got everything,
I've perfected my complexion.

1241
01:22:55,966 --> 01:22:57,800
-Mm-hmm.
-I'm in peak physical condition.

1242
01:22:57,866 --> 01:23:00,666
-Look at you.
-Any idiot could do modeling, okay.

1243
01:23:00,733 --> 01:23:01,666
It's not like--

1244
01:23:02,466 --> 01:23:05,466
Is this how you prepare for a match?

1245
01:23:07,099 --> 01:23:11,466
Look, I'll have you know,
not only am I a bonafide Olympian

1246
01:23:11,533 --> 01:23:15,300
and the man with the big beautiful
golden brain behind Alpha Academy,

1247
01:23:15,366 --> 01:23:18,633
but I'm also on the cusp
of a very lucrative modeling career.

1248
01:23:18,700 --> 01:23:20,166
If you don't mind, just--

1249
01:23:20,233 --> 01:23:25,433
Get ready to model a full body cast.

1250
01:23:25,500 --> 01:23:30,400
Hey, no one talks
to "Master" Chad Gable like that.

1251
01:23:37,666 --> 01:23:38,766
-How's my brow?
-It's good.

1252
01:23:38,833 --> 01:23:43,266
[Corey] That is a lot of beef, but,
oh, my God, KP, can you believe it?

1253
01:23:43,333 --> 01:23:44,766
It's about time.

1254
01:23:44,833 --> 01:23:51,733
It's that time, finally,
where get to say, "Ding Dong, hello."

I'm here, come on. Come on.

Hello, everybody, and welcome
to the Ding Dong, Hello show.

I was going to call it Ding Dong, Bonjour,
but I take it back, you little idiots.

[crowd boos]

1265
01:24:45,033 --> 01:24:48,333
Since we are in Canada,

1266
01:24:48,400 --> 01:24:51,300
I didn't feel like coming
and I could be home sulking

1267
01:24:51,366 --> 01:24:55,099
because I didn't get
into the Elimination Chamber Match

1268
01:24:55,166 --> 01:24:57,366
like I deserved.

1269
01:24:58,700 --> 01:25:05,533
Since in Canada, today is family day,
I decided to pick myself up

1270
01:25:05,599 --> 01:25:10,533
and spend today with my family,

1271
01:25:11,633 --> 01:25:13,599
Damage CTRL.

1272
01:25:15,099 --> 01:25:17,366
Thank you for coming. Thank you so much.

1273
01:25:18,133 --> 01:25:20,066
You guys know how much I love you.

1274
01:25:20,133 --> 01:25:24,900
You know that, but these idiots
don't know how to love you.

1275
01:25:24,966 --> 01:25:29,099
These idiots don't love you
the way that I do.

[crowd boos]

1277
01:25:30,933 --> 01:25:34,900
That's right, you are so underappreciated,

1278
01:25:34,966 --> 01:25:38,300
which is why
I wanted to have you on my show

1279
01:25:38,366 --> 01:25:42,766
so that everybody
can hear your beautiful voices.

1280
01:25:43,166 --> 01:25:45,200
Let's get to the questions.

1281
01:25:46,400 --> 01:25:48,500
My first one-- You know what?
I'm too excited to sit.

1282
01:25:48,566 --> 01:25:50,466
My first one is for you, Dakota.
[clears throat]

1283
01:25:51,533 --> 01:25:54,333
How does it feel to be

1284
01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:59,633
the greatest Women's Tag Team Champions
of all time?

1285

[chuckles]

1286
01:26:02,733 --> 01:26:06,666
Amazing question, Bayley, Amazing
question, but let me just start off

1287
01:26:06,733 --> 01:26:10,700
by saying that we wouldn't be here
without you guiding the way.

1288
01:26:10,766 --> 01:26:13,733
Our fearless leader,
our beloved role model,

1289
01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:18,433
and because of that, we've been able
to completely dominate this division

1290
01:26:18,500 --> 01:26:24,300
as champions for over 100 days.

1291
01:26:24,800 --> 01:26:25,966
100 days.

1292
01:26:26,033 --> 01:26:28,133
We've been on every show,

1293
01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:35,099
we've beaten the likes of Alexa Bliss,
Asuka, Liv Morgan, Raquel,

1294
01:26:35,166 --> 01:26:37,866
and "The Man" Becky Lynch.

1295
01:26:37,933 --> 01:26:40,833
We will continue to keep dominating
for another 100 days,

1296
01:26:40,900 --> 01:26:42,733
and another 100 days, and another--

1305

since the last time
you defended those titles.

1306
01:27:26,733 --> 01:27:29,633
No, no, no, those titles
are getting dusty,

1307
01:27:29,700 --> 01:27:31,500
there's cobwebs in them titles.

1308
01:27:31,566 --> 01:27:34,466
There's probably some spiders
living in there.

1309
01:27:36,599 --> 01:27:40,033
You two, you're not going to get
to just sit on those titles

1310

for that level of awesomeness now,

I was thinking of.

01:28:46,433 --> 01:28:50,900
[Bayley] You guys better use the door
if you idiots want to interrupt my show.

1330
01:28:50,966 --> 01:28:53,066
You better use the door.

1331
01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:57,833
[Lita] We should go
through the door. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1332
01:28:57,900 --> 01:29:00,966
-Hello? [knocks]
-[Bayley] You're not welcome.

1333
01:29:01,033 --> 01:29:04,033
-[Lita] Oh, we can't hear you.
-[Becky Lynch] Ding dong, hello.

1334
01:29:04,099 --> 01:29:05,333
[Becky Lynch laughs]

1335
01:29:06,266 --> 01:29:11,033
[Bayley] What are you even doing here?
You don't even work here, Lita.

1336
01:29:11,099 --> 01:29:13,333
You must be really desperate

1337
01:29:13,400 --> 01:29:16,599
if you're bringing her around here
because I'm pretty sure--

1338
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:24,000
[crowd chants "Lita"]

1339
01:29:28,200 --> 01:29:33,700
Lita, do you remember the last time
you guys were in the ring together?

1340
01:29:33,766 --> 01:29:37,366
You tried to end each other.
Are you sure you want to trust her?

1341
01:29:37,433 --> 01:29:39,833
-I don't think you can trust her.
-[Becky Lynch] No.

1342
01:29:39,900 --> 01:29:40,966
I already apologized.

1343
01:29:41,033 --> 01:29:46,166
Lita understands I get a little Gollumy
when titles are concerned.

1344
01:29:46,233 --> 01:29:49,000
[Lita] Well, I personally think
Gollum's cute and weird.

1345
01:29:49,066 --> 01:29:50,366
I like weird and cute.

1346
01:29:50,433 --> 01:29:55,266
We're over it, we're past that,
but Bayley, you do bring up a good point.

1347
01:29:55,333 --> 01:29:59,233
I had my sights set on a fifth title run,

1348
01:29:59,300 --> 01:30:05,200
but if I can't get that title
against Becky Lynch,

1349
01:30:05,266 --> 01:30:08,633
I'm liking this plan

1350
01:30:08,700 --> 01:30:13,000
walking into WrestleMania
as Tag Team champs.

1351
01:30:16,433 --> 01:30:23,200
Dakota, IYO, this is an official challenge

1352
01:30:23,266 --> 01:30:25,766
for a Tag Team title match.

1353
01:30:27,866 --> 01:30:32,533
You guys have not even close
to have earned

1354
01:30:32,599 --> 01:30:36,300
a Tag Team title match
against two of the best.

1355
01:30:37,666 --> 01:30:41,133
She is a Hall of Famer,
four-time woman's champion.

1356
01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:44,599
I am the first woman to win
the Main Event of WrestleMania,

1357
01:30:44,666 --> 01:30:46,333
Six-Time Woman's Champion.

1358
01:30:46,400 --> 01:30:49,966
She's one of the greatest to ever do it.
I'm one of the greatest to ever do it.

1359
01:30:50,033 --> 01:30:51,599
I think that's enough.

1360
01:30:52,500 --> 01:30:54,566
Solid argument. That was good.

1361
01:30:55,700 --> 01:31:00,633
Maybe, if you guys
are the greatest Tag Team champions,

1362
01:31:00,700 --> 01:31:03,466
-you would want to prove that, right?
-[Dakota] Yes.

1363
01:31:03,533 --> 01:31:06,566
Didn't you say you're the greatest?
What's the problem here?

1364
01:31:06,633 --> 01:31:08,066
[Bayley] They are the greatest.

1365
01:31:08,133 --> 01:31:11,000
[Becky Lynch] Then they should be
defending their titles, right?

1366
01:31:11,533 --> 01:31:12,933
[Bayley] They are the greatest.

1367
01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:16,300
[Becky Lynch] Then they wouldn't have
a problem defending the titles, right?

1368
01:31:16,366 --> 01:31:19,066
-[Bayley] They're the greatest.
-[Becky Lynch] Unless--

1369
01:31:19,133 --> 01:31:21,800
Yeah, it feels like maybe they're scared.

1370
01:31:21,866 --> 01:31:23,366
-Unless you're scared.
-[Lita] Right.

1371
01:31:23,433 --> 01:31:24,733
[Becky Lynch] Are you scared?

1372
01:31:27,533 --> 01:31:29,433
They accept.

1373
01:31:29,500 --> 01:31:36,500
[crowd cheers]

1374
01:31:42,433 --> 01:31:45,666
[Becky Lynch]
You're looking at the future right here.

1375
01:31:45,733 --> 01:31:50,366
This is the future. This is the future.

1376
01:31:50,433 --> 01:31:56,933
[crowds cheers]

1377
01:31:58,733 --> 01:32:01,066
["LoveFuryPassionEnergy" playing]

1378
01:32:01,133 --> 01:32:03,099
[Corey] Bayley accepted the challenge.

1379
01:32:03,166 --> 01:32:05,333
It's still got to be made official,

1380
01:32:05,400 --> 01:32:10,533
but did Bayley just back
her own cohorts into a corner?

1381
01:32:10,599 --> 01:32:13,366
[Kevin Patrick] Exactly, Graves,
if this is made official.

1382
01:32:13,433 --> 01:32:16,200
My word, what a matchup it promises to be.

1383
01:32:16,266 --> 01:32:19,800
Lita's saying,
"I have plans on a fifth title run."

1384
01:32:19,866 --> 01:32:22,800
Will it happen?
The Man alongside the Hall of Famer.

1385
01:32:22,866 --> 01:32:23,966
What a moment.

1386
01:32:27,666 --> 01:32:30,366
Please welcome Candice Lerae.

1387
01:32:30,900 --> 01:32:31,833
[crowd cheers]

1388
01:32:31,900 --> 01:32:34,599
Candice, firstly, coming out
of Elimination Chamber,

1389
01:32:34,666 --> 01:32:38,333
do you have an update on the status
of your husband, Johnny Gargano?

1390
01:32:38,733 --> 01:32:40,566
Well, Johnny
got pretty banged up in there.

1391
01:32:40,633 --> 01:32:45,000
Elimination Chamber is one
of the most brutal matches in WWE history,

1392
01:32:45,066 --> 01:32:51,033
but I can tell you that-- sorry, sorry.
Hey, no, no, no. No.

1393
01:32:51,099 --> 01:32:53,833
You've been following me around
for months.

1394
01:32:53,900 --> 01:32:55,966
Why? I need you to tell me why.

1395
01:32:57,266 --> 01:33:00,433
Nothing? Okay. [sighs] No, no, no.

1396
01:33:00,500 --> 01:33:04,300
Next week I have a match
against Piper Niven to worry about.

1397
01:33:04,366 --> 01:33:07,133
I can't focus on that and you.

1398
01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:09,099
I don't know
where you're going to pop up next.

1399
01:33:09,166 --> 01:33:12,599
Can you just please tell me why, please?

1400
01:33:16,766 --> 01:33:18,400
-What? What?
-[Nikki whispering]

1401
01:33:18,466 --> 01:33:22,266
[whispering continues]

1402
01:33:22,333 --> 01:33:26,066
What? Wait, but-- What?

1403
01:33:29,400 --> 01:33:33,200
Uh, Candice,
what exactly did Nikki just tell you?

1404
01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:39,900
She just said that all of her friends
are gone and she's alone and--

1405
01:33:41,366 --> 01:33:47,300
I'm sorry. To answer your question
about Johnny, he'll be back.

1406
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:48,933
I just--

1407
01:33:50,766 --> 01:33:52,733
["Shoooosh" playing]

1408
01:33:52,800 --> 01:33:55,000
[Kevin Patrick]
Somehow I feel for Nikki Cross.

1409
01:33:56,400 --> 01:33:58,833
[Corey] I feel for Candice
for having to talk to Byron.

1410
01:33:59,599 --> 01:34:01,000
[bell rings]

1411
01:34:01,066 --> 01:34:04,800
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1412
01:34:04,866 --> 01:34:07,400
Introducing first,
accompanied to the ring by Otis,

1413
01:34:07,466 --> 01:34:10,099
representing Alpha Academy

1414
01:34:10,166 --> 01:34:13,966
Chad Gable.

1415
01:34:14,033 --> 01:34:18,099
[Kevin Patrick] Gable alongside Otis.
It's Gable set for action against the man.

1416
01:34:18,166 --> 01:34:23,133
It took four superstars to eliminate
Bronson Reed from the Elimination Chamber.

1417
01:34:23,200 --> 01:34:26,133
The Aussie destroyer
takes on the Olympian, Gable,

1418
01:34:26,200 --> 01:34:27,566
next, on Raw.

1419
01:34:33,700 --> 01:34:36,300
[Kevin Patrick]
The biggest WrestleMania of all time.

1420
01:34:36,366 --> 01:34:37,266
[Gable] Thank you.

1421
01:34:37,333 --> 01:34:40,066
[Corey] Just down the road in Hollywood.
We are coming for you.

1422
01:34:40,133 --> 01:34:43,700
Meanwhile, here on Monday Night Raw,
the Alpha Academy, Chad Gable

1423
01:34:43,766 --> 01:34:49,433
set for action against the man that calls
himself a walking natural disaster.

1424
01:34:50,266 --> 01:34:53,666
[announcer] His opponent,
from Black Forest, South Australia,

1425
01:34:53,733 --> 01:34:56,266
weighing in at 330 pounds,

1426
01:34:56,333 --> 01:35:00,733
Bronson Reed.

1427
01:35:00,800 --> 01:35:04,599
[Corey] Bronson Reed has got to be
feeling extremely confident

1428
01:35:04,666 --> 01:35:09,366
coming off of his impressive performance
inside the Elimination Chamber.

1429
01:35:09,433 --> 01:35:13,066
Reed may not have succeeded
in becoming United States champion,

1430
01:35:13,133 --> 01:35:19,166
but Bronson showed the entire WWE Universe
what he is truly capable of.

1431
01:35:19,233 --> 01:35:22,466
[Kevin Patrick] Corey, you brilliantly
said he's a terrifying blend of size,

1432
01:35:22,533 --> 01:35:24,000
speed, and power.

1433
01:35:24,066 --> 01:35:28,066
In the last few weeks, he's devoured
Dolph Ziggler and Mustafa Ali.

1434
01:35:28,800 --> 01:35:32,033
Took three superkicks to the face
at the same time

1435
01:35:32,099 --> 01:35:35,300
inside the Elimination Chamber,
and it still didn't rock him.

1436
01:35:35,366 --> 01:35:38,466
[Corey] It took a small army
to keep Bronson Reed down

1437
01:35:38,533 --> 01:35:40,400
for the count of three Saturday night.

1438
01:35:40,466 --> 01:35:43,366
I hope Chad Gable
has his working boots on tonight.

1439
01:35:43,433 --> 01:35:44,900
[bell rings]

1440
01:35:45,366 --> 01:35:48,366
[Kevin Patrick] For Chad Gable,
it is a WrestleMania season.

1441
01:35:48,433 --> 01:35:50,366
-Chad Gable wanting to impress…
-[Corey] Oh, my.

1442
01:35:50,433 --> 01:35:52,933
[Kevin Patrick] …and turn his attention
away from the modeling.

1443
01:35:54,700 --> 01:35:57,866
[Corey] Listen, if there's any solace
in this situation,

1444
01:35:57,933 --> 01:36:01,366
-it's that Gable regularly-- Oh.
-[Kevin Patrick] Yikes.

1445
01:36:02,400 --> 01:36:05,666
[Corey] Gable regularly trains
with the behemoth

1446
01:36:05,733 --> 01:36:07,500
known as the number one guy, Otis.

1447
01:36:07,566 --> 01:36:09,700
-Oh, my God.
-[Kevin Patrick] Oh, man.

1448
01:36:10,099 --> 01:36:12,166
[Corey] Oh, my.

1449
01:36:15,099 --> 01:36:18,866
[Kevin Patrick] A frightening sight.
Look at this again.

1450
01:36:19,599 --> 01:36:22,400
[Corey] Incoming impact off the apron.

1451
01:36:22,466 --> 01:36:24,800
Bronson Reed flattening Gable

1452
01:36:24,866 --> 01:36:29,566
and just manhandling
the United States Olympian.

1453
01:36:29,633 --> 01:36:32,666
The nasty snarl on the face of Reed

1454
01:36:32,733 --> 01:36:38,000
who derives some sick twisted pleasure
by inflicting punishment

1455
01:36:38,066 --> 01:36:41,133
to anyone who dares step in his path.

1456
01:36:41,933 --> 01:36:45,666
-[Kevin Patrick] 330 pounds.
-[Corey] The yeti of the black forest.

1457
01:36:45,733 --> 01:36:47,300
Here we go.

1458
01:36:47,366 --> 01:36:49,800
[Corey] Look at Gable turn it around.

1459
01:36:49,866 --> 01:36:53,833
[Kevin Patrick] The master technician.
Chad Gable has Reed.

1460
01:36:54,933 --> 01:36:57,400
[Corey] Bronson was able
to kick Gable off.

1461
01:36:58,000 --> 01:37:01,033
Now Chad trying to chop the big man down.

1462
01:37:01,099 --> 01:37:04,133
[Kevin Patrick] Chad Gable
an incredible athlete, an Olympian.

1463
01:37:04,200 --> 01:37:07,533
Now looking to gain some momentum.
Bronson Reed says hang on a second.

1464
01:37:07,599 --> 01:37:08,900
Turns it around once more.

1465
01:37:10,066 --> 01:37:12,800
[Corey] Great athleticism by Gable.
No way. No way.

1466
01:37:12,866 --> 01:37:13,900
[Kevin Patrick] No.

1467
01:37:14,300 --> 01:37:17,666
[Corey] We've seen some incredible feats
of strength by Gable in the past,

1468
01:37:17,733 --> 01:37:20,266
but tonight Reed not having any of it.

1469
01:37:20,333 --> 01:37:24,233
[Kevin Patrick] Wow.
Chad Gable taking down Bronson Reed.

1470
01:37:24,300 --> 01:37:26,033
This may be his opportunity.

1471
01:37:26,099 --> 01:37:30,300
[Corey] Gable lining up Reed.
Diving headbutt on the money.

1472
01:37:30,366 --> 01:37:32,333
[Kevin Patrick] Cover.
Chad Gable now for the win.

1473
01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:34,800
Early kick out by Bronson Reed.

1474
01:37:34,866 --> 01:37:38,233
[Corey] If that doesn't shatter
your confidence, nothing will.

1475
01:37:38,300 --> 01:37:42,566
A kick out a fraction of a second
after it was attempted.

1476
01:37:42,633 --> 01:37:43,666
Look at this again.

1477
01:37:43,733 --> 01:37:46,500
Gable soaring through the skies,

1478
01:37:46,566 --> 01:37:49,166
delivering the headbutt
right where it needed to be,

1479
01:37:49,233 --> 01:37:53,966
and it's like-- Oh, listen, I understand.

1480
01:37:54,033 --> 01:37:56,233
Otis is a man easily distracted by snacks.

1481
01:37:56,300 --> 01:37:58,300
[Kevin Patrick] That's Maxxine Dupri
you see there,

1482
01:37:58,366 --> 01:38:01,200
director of talent at Maximum Male Models.

1483
01:38:01,666 --> 01:38:03,933
She's taken a keen interest in Otis.

1484
01:38:04,333 --> 01:38:06,766
[Corey] I don't think Maxxine
has been close enough to notice

1485
01:38:06,833 --> 01:38:09,833
Gable's Olympic complexion
and bone structure.

1486
01:38:09,900 --> 01:38:12,133
-[Kevin Patrick] Oh, my God.
-[Corey] Holy cow.

1487
01:38:12,200 --> 01:38:14,099
[Kevin Patrick] What are we seeing?

1488
01:38:14,166 --> 01:38:16,666
[Corey] That was ridiculous.

1489
01:38:18,633 --> 01:38:23,266
Otis over here
understandably distracted but--

1490
01:38:23,666 --> 01:38:25,766
Otis, hey.

1491
01:38:27,366 --> 01:38:29,033
Otis, hey.

1492
01:38:30,866 --> 01:38:33,400
Hey, look up. What are you doing? Otis?

1493
01:38:33,466 --> 01:38:34,800
[Bronson] Honey, I bet you could.

1494
01:38:36,433 --> 01:38:38,333
[Kevin Patrick] Meanwhile,
back inside the ring,

1495
01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:39,733
Bronson Reed looking to--

1496
01:38:40,133 --> 01:38:41,366
[Corey] Looking to what?

1497
01:38:41,433 --> 01:38:44,366
[Kevin Patrick] I can't believe
what I've just seen. Otis is distracted.

1498
01:38:44,433 --> 01:38:48,933
[Corey] I don't know who's more distracted
by Otis' magnetism, Maxxine or you, KP.

1499
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:50,766
[Kevin Patrick] Fair point,
but look at Reed.

1500
01:38:50,833 --> 01:38:53,700
He's looking to finish off Chad Gable,
and we know what's coming.

1501
01:38:53,766 --> 01:38:55,933
[Corey] Tsunami.

1502
01:38:56,000 --> 01:38:59,233
[Kevin Patrick] Cover, Reed over Gable.
He's got him.

1503
01:38:59,300 --> 01:39:00,433
[bell rings]

1504
01:39:00,500 --> 01:39:01,966
["Battle Tested" playing]

1505
01:39:02,033 --> 01:39:07,000
[announcer] Here is your winner,
Bronson Reed.

1506
01:39:07,066 --> 01:39:12,033
[Corey] I don't even think Otis realized
what just happened to his partner.

1507
01:39:13,400 --> 01:39:17,766
Look at the size of Bronson Reed.

1508
01:39:18,566 --> 01:39:20,666
[Kevin Patrick]
This was absolutely outrageous.

1509
01:39:20,733 --> 01:39:24,066
The power, the pace from Bronson Reed.

1510
01:39:24,133 --> 01:39:28,000
[Corey] Dominance on display
from the big Aussie,

1511
01:39:28,066 --> 01:39:32,066
and once the tsunami hits,
you can count to 20.

1512
01:39:32,133 --> 01:39:37,099
It is lights out, game over. End of story.

1513
01:39:37,166 --> 01:39:38,700
[Kevin Patrick] As this was happening,

1514
01:39:38,766 --> 01:39:42,266
Otis staring deep
into the eyes of Maxxine Dupri.

1515
01:39:43,300 --> 01:39:44,933
He's still looking at the card.

1516
01:39:48,033 --> 01:39:51,733
What a superstar we have in Bronson Reed.

1517
01:39:52,800 --> 01:39:55,266
Speaking of superstars, Corey,

1518
01:39:55,333 --> 01:40:00,133
we are set for one blockbuster Main Event
here on Monday Night Raw.

1519
01:40:00,200 --> 01:40:03,133
It's Austin Theory defending
his United States Championship

1520
01:40:03,200 --> 01:40:05,599
against the Hall of Famer Edge.

1521
01:40:08,933 --> 01:40:10,933
["Amen" playing]

1522
01:40:11,000 --> 01:40:16,800
[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome Elias.

1523
01:40:20,033 --> 01:40:22,066
Hello, I am Elias.

1524
01:40:23,300 --> 01:40:26,166
Rick Boogs, I hope you're back there
taking notes right now

1525
01:40:26,233 --> 01:40:28,933
because this is how you do it.

1526
01:40:29,333 --> 01:40:34,466
This is the time of the year
when legends come out.

1527
01:40:34,533 --> 01:40:38,133
This is the time of the year
when stars are made,

1528
01:40:38,200 --> 01:40:42,033
and let me tell you
there is no bigger star than Elias.

1529
01:40:42,866 --> 01:40:46,466
There is no bigger star legend than Elias.

1530
01:40:47,500 --> 01:40:52,200
The question that has to be
on everybody's mind right now,

1531
01:40:52,599 --> 01:40:55,566
and Boogs,
you better be back there taking notes,

1532
01:40:56,733 --> 01:40:57,599
is this…

1533
01:40:59,599 --> 01:41:06,666
Who wants to walk with Elias
at WrestleMania?

1534
01:41:08,900 --> 01:41:12,099
Come on,
there's got to be somebody out there

1535
01:41:12,166 --> 01:41:16,933
that wants to stand center stage
on the grandest stage of them all

1536
01:41:17,000 --> 01:41:20,133
with the grandest performer
of them all, Elias.

1537
01:41:20,200 --> 01:41:23,400
[Corey] It's like asking people back
to headline OSFest.

1538
01:41:23,466 --> 01:41:25,166
Uh-oh.

1539
01:41:25,233 --> 01:41:30,533
["Titan" playing]

1540
01:41:30,599 --> 01:41:36,566
[Corey] WWE Universe,
behold The All Mighty.

1541
01:41:37,933 --> 01:41:40,900
Lashley is ticked off.

1542
01:41:40,966 --> 01:41:43,599
[Kevin Patrick]
Is he here to answer Elias' call?

1543
01:41:43,666 --> 01:41:45,466
Elias is saying,
"Who's gonna step out to me?"

1544
01:41:45,533 --> 01:41:47,866
And all of a sudden,
The All Mighty Bobby Lashley?

1545
01:41:47,933 --> 01:41:49,933
[Corey] What do you think, Kevin Patrick?

1546
01:41:50,000 --> 01:41:51,866
Elias said,
"Who wants to walk with Elias?"

1547
01:41:51,933 --> 01:41:55,033
Here comes Bobby Lashley.
Does that answer your question?

1548
01:41:55,866 --> 01:41:57,166
[Kevin Patrick] Emphatically.

1549
01:41:59,200 --> 01:42:01,666
Lashley going after Elias, he wants more.

1550
01:42:01,733 --> 01:42:05,366
[Corey] The All Mighty isn't concerned
about a Road to WrestleMania

1551
01:42:05,433 --> 01:42:10,066
because Bobby Lashley
is on a war path to WrestleMania.

1552
01:42:10,133 --> 01:42:13,133
Tonight, unfortunately for Elias,

1553
01:42:14,666 --> 01:42:20,333
the troubadour is caught
in the grip of The All Mighty.

1554
01:42:20,400 --> 01:42:22,866
[Kevin Patrick]
He's currently being devoured

1555
01:42:23,666 --> 01:42:28,500
by a man that was in a grueling match
with Brock Lesnar just 48 hours ago.

1556
01:42:28,566 --> 01:42:31,400
[Corey] I hope Rick Boogs
isn't taking notes on Elias right now,

1557
01:42:31,466 --> 01:42:33,133
-because, boom.
-[Kevin Patrick] Spear.

1558
01:42:33,200 --> 01:42:34,799
[Corey] That won't bode well.

1559
01:42:36,099 --> 01:42:38,366
[crowd cheers]

1560
01:42:38,433 --> 01:42:41,966
[Corey] Bobby Lashley like a man
possessed tonight,

1561
01:42:42,033 --> 01:42:44,000
and the Hurt Lock is in.

1562
01:42:44,066 --> 01:42:49,700
The same move that forced Brock Lesnar
to get a disqualification

1563
01:42:49,766 --> 01:42:53,799
because even The Beast
knew he couldn't escape.

1564
01:42:55,266 --> 01:43:00,099
Everybody has a plan
until I slap that Hurt Lock in.

1565
01:43:00,933 --> 01:43:02,866
This past weekend,

1566
01:43:03,266 --> 01:43:05,799
I put Brock Lesnar in a Hurt Lock

1567
01:43:06,766 --> 01:43:12,000
and Brock Lesnar panicked
and he had to resort to a low blow.

1568
01:43:13,866 --> 01:43:20,099
Not Brock Lesnar,
not Bray Wyatt, not Elias,

1569
01:43:20,166 --> 01:43:23,833
nobody in that locker room
breaks the Hurt Lock.

1570
01:43:25,833 --> 01:43:31,833
Now, I will not be disrespected by nobody
in this locker room.

1571
01:43:31,900 --> 01:43:37,500
If you disrespect me,
I'm going to put you down.

1572
01:43:39,266 --> 01:43:41,266
["Titan" playing]

1573
01:43:41,333 --> 01:43:45,533
[Corey] Simple, concise, easy to digest.

1574
01:43:45,599 --> 01:43:50,500
"The All Mighty" Bobby Lashley
is in a nasty mood

1575
01:43:50,566 --> 01:43:55,466
as we head toward Los Angeles to Hollywood
and WrestleMania.

1576
01:43:55,533 --> 01:43:57,900
What does that path look like
for The All Mighty?

1577
01:43:57,966 --> 01:43:58,966
Very good point.

1578
01:43:59,033 --> 01:44:00,833
Listen, we just got word moments ago,

1579
01:44:00,900 --> 01:44:04,533
it is now official
for next week Monday Night Raw,

1580
01:44:04,599 --> 01:44:10,066
"The Man" Becky Lynch will team up
with WWE Hall of Famer Lita

1581
01:44:10,133 --> 01:44:14,733
to take on the Tag Team Champions
of Dakota Kai and IYO SKY.

1582
01:44:14,799 --> 01:44:18,566
[Corey] Damage CTRL had better be ready
for the fight of their lives.

1583
01:44:18,633 --> 01:44:24,333
More action in the Women's Division
as we heard from Candice Lerae earlier on,

1584
01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:27,466
she goes one-on-one with Piper Niven,

1585
01:44:27,533 --> 01:44:31,633
who has been the most dominant force
in the division since the Royal Rumble.

1586
01:44:31,700 --> 01:44:33,433
[Kevin Patrick]
Speaking of dominant forces,

1587
01:44:33,500 --> 01:44:35,799
we heard from MVP moments ago.

1588
01:44:35,866 --> 01:44:39,099
Will Brock Lesnar "The Beast"
accept the challenge

1589
01:44:39,166 --> 01:44:43,133
to take on the giant himself, Omos?

1590
01:44:43,200 --> 01:44:44,666
We'll find out next week.

1591
01:44:44,733 --> 01:44:49,099
[Corey] Are we sure this is official?
Is there any way we can change this?

1592
01:44:49,166 --> 01:44:51,066
[Kevin Patrick] All right, calm down.

1593
01:44:51,133 --> 01:44:53,866
[Corey] Listen, I never disrespect
my wife's decisions,

1594
01:44:53,933 --> 01:44:58,900
but Carmella has challenged Asuka
to a one-on-one match next week.

1595
01:44:58,966 --> 01:45:00,200
This is not going to be good.

1596
01:45:00,266 --> 01:45:01,866
[Kevin Patrick] You're not gonna sleep.

1597
01:45:01,933 --> 01:45:04,433
I may not sleep, either,
because I'm really excited to find out

1598
01:45:04,500 --> 01:45:08,000
what is in the envelope
that Maryse gave to The Miz tonight.

1599
01:45:08,066 --> 01:45:12,266
We're going to find out
in this special edition of Miz TV

1600
01:45:12,333 --> 01:45:13,733
next week on Raw.

1601
01:45:13,799 --> 01:45:16,599
[Corey] As WrestleMania goes Hollywood.

1602
01:45:20,200 --> 01:45:25,200
Joining me now
is The Rated-R Superstar Edge.

1603
01:45:25,266 --> 01:45:27,400
[crowd cheers]

1604
01:45:27,466 --> 01:45:29,433
Edge, first off, congratulations.

1605
01:45:29,500 --> 01:45:33,066
You are your wife, Beth Phoenix,
defeating Finn Bálor and Rhea Ripley

1606
01:45:33,133 --> 01:45:34,233
at Elimination Chamber,

1607
01:45:34,299 --> 01:45:37,733
but there's no rest for the weary
because shortly after that,

1608
01:45:37,799 --> 01:45:42,799
you accepted Austin Theory's
United States Championship Open Challenge.

1609
01:45:42,866 --> 01:45:47,233
How are you feeling just moments
away from this huge match?

1610
01:45:47,299 --> 01:45:51,033
Well, Byron, I'm finally happy
The Judgment Day is in the rearview.

1611
01:45:51,099 --> 01:45:54,133
Beth's back home with the girls
and I feel like I can finally get back

1612
01:45:54,200 --> 01:45:57,433
to the goals that I set for myself
when I first came out of retirement.

1613
01:45:57,500 --> 01:46:00,299
When Austin Theory issued the
Open Challenge for the US Championship,

1614
01:46:00,366 --> 01:46:01,833
well, I had to take him up on it.

1615
01:46:02,799 --> 01:46:03,766
See, Austin Theory,

1616
01:46:03,833 --> 01:46:07,799
he has the physical abilities
to help shape the WWE

1617
01:46:07,866 --> 01:46:08,966
for the next two decades,

1618
01:46:09,033 --> 01:46:13,266
just like I helped shape the last three,
but does he have the mental?

1619
01:46:13,733 --> 01:46:15,933
That's where our similarities end.

1620
01:46:16,733 --> 01:46:20,466
The thing with youth
is sometimes it comes with ignorance.

1621
01:46:20,533 --> 01:46:23,866
He talks about his forever reign,
but nothing lasts forever.

1622
01:46:23,933 --> 01:46:26,566
I don't want to be that guy,
but I'm about to be that guy.

1623
01:46:26,633 --> 01:46:30,166
Now, cliches are cliches for a reason,
it's because they're true.

1624
01:46:30,233 --> 01:46:32,566
With age comes wisdom.

1625
01:46:34,799 --> 01:46:36,766
More than anyone else in that locker room,

1626
01:46:36,833 --> 01:46:40,233
I know that all of this can be taken away

1627
01:46:40,633 --> 01:46:44,799
faster than I'm going to smack
that stupid duck face

1628
01:46:44,866 --> 01:46:47,066
off of his overly manscaped head tonight.

1629
01:46:49,566 --> 01:46:52,966
Now, I haven't held a championship here
in a long time.

1630
01:46:53,033 --> 01:46:55,333
I've done everything else
there is to do in this business,

1631
01:46:55,400 --> 01:46:57,033
but I haven't held a title for a while,

1632
01:46:57,099 --> 01:47:01,299
and we both know that window's closing
more and more every day.

1633
01:47:01,700 --> 01:47:03,033
I'm running out of time.

1634
01:47:05,799 --> 01:47:12,166
My second match in this company
was here in 1997.

1635
01:47:15,366 --> 01:47:18,500
I haven't performed here in 18 years.

1636
01:47:20,299 --> 01:47:23,900
It would be feel pretty damn good
to win it here

1637
01:47:24,500 --> 01:47:27,400
and walk into WrestleMania
as the United States Champion.

1638
01:47:28,266 --> 01:47:31,366
I know I've had a lot of cliches here
with you, Byron, but here's one more.

1639
01:47:34,066 --> 01:47:35,200
Never say never.

1640
01:47:38,133 --> 01:47:40,366
["A-Town Down" playing]

1641
01:47:40,433 --> 01:47:45,566
[Corey] The challenger is motivated,
but you can't tell the champion

1642
01:47:45,633 --> 01:47:49,500
because, quite simply,
Theory ain't trying to hear it.

1643
01:47:49,566 --> 01:47:53,466
We are in the midst of the forever reign

1644
01:47:53,533 --> 01:47:56,900
and we are looking at the now.

1645
01:47:56,966 --> 01:47:59,033
[Kevin Patrick] Tell you what,
if you are not pumped

1646
01:47:59,099 --> 01:48:03,299
for this United States Championship Match,
you simply do not have a pulse.

1647
01:48:03,366 --> 01:48:07,299
Austin Theory has been the
United States Champion for 86 days now,

1648
01:48:07,366 --> 01:48:12,166
but this may be his toughest test yet
against a motived Hall of Famer.

1649
01:48:12,233 --> 01:48:14,599
It's Theory, Edge next.

1650
01:48:15,066 --> 01:48:17,233
[Corey] Did you just ruin my line?

1651
01:48:20,599 --> 01:48:24,233
This black history month, WWE
celebrates the true community champions,

1652
01:48:24,299 --> 01:48:27,666
those whose mission it is
to enrich the lives of kids

1653
01:48:27,733 --> 01:48:30,066
through academics and community service.

1654
01:48:30,133 --> 01:48:34,700
The men and women who have spent 25 years
providing knowledge, skills, and courage

1655
01:48:34,766 --> 01:48:37,233
to make sure all individuals
and identity groups

1656
01:48:37,299 --> 01:48:39,299
are valued and treated with respect,

1657
01:48:39,366 --> 01:48:41,799
and the people who provide
academic support

1658
01:48:41,866 --> 01:48:43,366
and college access to families.

1659
01:48:44,400 --> 01:48:48,566
This month we celebrate those who
work hard to strengthen our communities.

1660
01:48:48,633 --> 01:48:50,566
The true community champions.

1661
01:48:54,166 --> 01:48:56,599
[Kevin Theory] After retaining
his United States Championship

1662
01:48:56,666 --> 01:48:59,033
inside the Elimination Chamber,
Austin Theory

1663
01:48:59,099 --> 01:49:01,099
issued an Open Challenge,

1664
01:49:01,166 --> 01:49:06,966
an Open Challenge that was rapidly
answered by The Rated-R Superstar.

1665

1670

[Corey] A hometown hero
in every sense of the word.

1671
01:49:55,633 --> 01:49:58,133
The Rated-R Superstar
couldn't be any more Canadian

1672
01:49:58,200 --> 01:50:01,599
if he came out drinking a Molson
watching Letterkenny on his iPad.

1673
01:50:02,099 --> 01:50:04,900
Ottawa loves this guy with good reason.

1674
01:50:05,566 --> 01:50:07,200
[Kevin Patrick] Edge is back in Canada,

1675
01:50:07,266 --> 01:50:11,533
and Edge is on the hunt for gold
once more in WWE.

1676
01:50:11,599 --> 01:50:15,633
31 championships to his name
for the Hall of Famer,

1677
01:50:16,033 --> 01:50:20,633
but since returning after nine years away,
Edge has been missing out on gold,

1678
01:50:20,700 --> 01:50:24,200
and it's here to change
for The Rated-R Superstar tonight.

1679
01:50:24,266 --> 01:50:25,333
That's his message.

1680
01:50:25,400 --> 01:50:28,266
[Corey] We called Edge
the ultimate opportunist for years

1681
01:50:28,333 --> 01:50:29,533
with very good reason.

1682
01:50:29,599 --> 01:50:32,000
In the moments after Elimination Chamber,

1683
01:50:32,066 --> 01:50:36,966
Austin Theory issued the Open Challenge,
Edge quickly accepted it.

1684
01:50:37,033 --> 01:50:40,866
Here we are, here we go.

1685
01:50:41,633 --> 01:50:42,933

01:50:43,000 --> 01:50:45,766
[announcer] The following contest
scheduled for one fall

1687
01:50:45,833 --> 01:50:52,766
is for the United States Championship.

1688
01:50:54,633 --> 01:51:00,233
Introducing the challenger,
from Toronto, Ontario, Canada,

1689
01:51:00,299 --> 01:51:04,666
weighing in at 241 pounds,

1690
01:51:04,733 --> 01:51:07,466
WWE Hall of Famer,

1691
01:51:07,533 --> 01:51:12,799
"The Rated-R Superstar"

1692
01:51:12,866 --> 01:51:16,799
Edge.

1694
01:51:21,333 --> 01:51:25,233
[announcer] His opponent,
from Atlanta, Georgia,

weighing in at 220 pounds,

1696
01:51:29,633 --> 01:51:34,900
he is the United States Champion,

1697
01:51:34,966 --> 01:51:39,799
Austin Theory.

1698
01:51:39,866 --> 01:51:44,099
[crowd boos]

1699
01:51:44,166 --> 01:51:46,633
I don't what all these Ottawans
are booing about.

1700
01:51:46,700 --> 01:51:49,366
I understand Justin Trudeau
is a big Austin Theory fan.

1701
01:51:50,566 --> 01:51:54,933
[Kevin Patrick] That's the prize tonight,
the United States Championship.

1702
01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:58,033
It is a championship that Edge won
against Kurt Angle

1703
01:51:58,099 --> 01:52:00,366
back in November of 2001.

1704
01:52:00,433 --> 01:52:03,299
Austin Theory was four years of age,

1705
01:52:03,366 --> 01:52:05,266
it is the experienced legend

1706
01:52:05,333 --> 01:52:09,733
against the current
United States Champion, Austin Theory.

1707
01:52:10,799 --> 01:52:13,066
[Corey] Edge has already touched
on how special this is.

1708
01:52:13,133 --> 01:52:16,133
It's been 18 years
since he wrestled in Ottawa.

1709
01:52:16,533 --> 01:52:21,966
[Kevin Patrick] Listen,
I'm enjoying Edge's return to WWE,

1710
01:52:22,033 --> 01:52:26,033
these final stages of Edge's career,
his own admittance, not mine,

1711
01:52:26,099 --> 01:52:27,133
as much as anybody.

1712
01:52:27,200 --> 01:52:32,400
We are experiencing Edge
in full effect as part of the WWE,

1713
01:52:32,466 --> 01:52:34,833
something we never thought
we'd see before,

1714
01:52:34,900 --> 01:52:38,633
but the reality is this,
Austin Theory is the now,

1715
01:52:39,099 --> 01:52:41,866
Austin Theory is the future.

1716
01:52:41,933 --> 01:52:44,366
Theory is a very polarizing individual,

1717
01:52:44,433 --> 01:52:48,233
and that's why a superstar like Edge
wants to compete against Austin Theory.

1718
01:52:48,299 --> 01:52:50,133
Look at this athleticism.

1719
01:52:50,200 --> 01:52:55,200
Edge would love to be the man who snuffs
out the momentum of Austin Theory.

1720
01:52:55,266 --> 01:52:56,633
-Oh, wow.
-[Kevin Patrick] Oh, man.

1721
01:52:56,700 --> 01:52:57,833
[Corey] That might do it.

1722
01:52:59,233 --> 01:53:03,333
[Kevin Patrick] Edge taking Theory
.to the outside to devastating effect.

1723
01:53:04,933 --> 01:53:07,166
[Corey] Both of these men
have to be feeling the effects

1724
01:53:07,233 --> 01:53:08,299
of Elimination Chamber.

1725
01:53:08,366 --> 01:53:12,066
Obviously, Austin Theory
defended his title inside the Chamber,

1726
01:53:12,133 --> 01:53:17,633
Edge in a hellacious Mixed Tag Team Match
alongside his wife, Beth Phoenix.

1727
01:53:17,700 --> 01:53:20,799
They were victorious,
but you can't tell me

1728
01:53:20,866 --> 01:53:24,266
that Edge isn't a little worse
for wear today than he was Saturday.

1729
01:53:25,500 --> 01:53:28,133
[Kevin Patrick] So determined is Edge.
Back in the ring he comes,

1730
01:53:28,200 --> 01:53:31,000
and Edge will compliment Austin Theory
all day long, Corey,

1731
01:53:31,066 --> 01:53:34,433
but what he says he's missing
is the mentality that he has.

1732
01:53:34,500 --> 01:53:37,333
[Corey] Being a step ahead.
That's exactly what Edge just showed us.

1733
01:53:37,400 --> 01:53:39,500
[Kevin Patrick] Cover.
Edge for the victory early.

1734
01:53:39,566 --> 01:53:40,700
A kick out by Theory.

1735
01:53:44,333 --> 01:53:47,366
Can Edge become United States Champion?

1736
01:53:51,799 --> 01:53:54,333
It's a blockbuster Main Event
here on Monday Night Raw.

1737
01:53:54,400 --> 01:53:58,766
The prize, the United States Championship
currently held by Austin Theory.

1738
01:53:58,833 --> 01:54:01,700
It's a Hall of Famer in Edge
looking for gold tonight.

1739
01:54:01,766 --> 01:54:04,266
[Corey] Listen, man.
If you're a superstar on the rise,

1740
01:54:04,333 --> 01:54:08,733
which Austin Theory truly is,
you live for these types of opportunities.

1741
01:54:08,799 --> 01:54:12,333
It is extremely rare to have
a WWE Hall of Famer

1742
01:54:12,400 --> 01:54:14,233
whose still an active competitor,

1743
01:54:14,299 --> 01:54:17,799
still up to the task of challenging
for a title the way Edge is right now.

1744
01:54:17,866 --> 01:54:21,599
Austin Theory knows if he wants
to reach the next stratosphere,

1745
01:54:21,666 --> 01:54:23,166
he's got to do it at the expense

1746
01:54:23,233 --> 01:54:26,633
of someone the caliber
of a Rated-R Superstar.

1747
01:54:26,700 --> 01:54:28,700
That's not going to help Theory's case.

1748
01:54:29,633 --> 01:54:33,166
[Corey] Edge playing games with Theory,
and then dumping him in that fashion.

1749
01:54:33,233 --> 01:54:37,766
[Kevin Patrick] Also, when you're
a competitor the caliber of Edge…

1750
01:54:37,833 --> 01:54:39,299
[Corey] Taking flight.

1751
01:54:39,366 --> 01:54:41,866
[Kevin Patrick] …you want to prove
that you've still got it,

1752
01:54:41,933 --> 01:54:46,900
you still have what it takes to compete
at the highest elite levels in WWE.

1753
01:54:46,966 --> 01:54:50,466
That's what we're seeing
from Edge right here, case in point.

1754
01:54:50,533 --> 01:54:52,799
[Corey] Cover now.
Edge hooks the leg for the victory.

1755
01:54:52,866 --> 01:54:53,866
Kick out by Theory.

1756
01:54:53,933 --> 01:54:57,599
Edge saying it earlier on,
now with The Judgment Day in the rearview,

1757
01:54:57,666 --> 01:55:01,000
"I want to go back to the goals
I first set when I came out of retirement,

1758
01:55:01,066 --> 01:55:02,933
and that is to become a champion again."

1759
01:55:06,466 --> 01:55:08,933
[Kevin Patrick] Edge has a bit
of a beef with Austin Theory,

1760
01:55:09,000 --> 01:55:11,099
seeing as how Edge is a veteran
in the locker room,

1761
01:55:11,166 --> 01:55:16,700
he's happy to offer leadership, to offer
advice to anyone who dare ask him.

1762
01:55:16,766 --> 01:55:18,666
Theory has not been that guy.

1763
01:55:18,733 --> 01:55:22,400
Theory's the guy who turns his nose up
at a Hall of Famer and says,

1764
01:55:22,466 --> 01:55:25,433
"Watch this, old timer.
I'm going to show you how it's done."

1765
01:55:25,500 --> 01:55:27,133
That gets under Edge's skin,

1766
01:55:27,200 --> 01:55:30,299
but that's also what makes Theory
such a special talent.

1767
01:55:30,366 --> 01:55:34,666
He is brash,
he is cocky, and he is the now.

1768
01:55:35,566 --> 01:55:38,599
[Corey] He certainly is talking the talk,
but he's walking the walk as well.

1769
01:55:38,666 --> 01:55:41,666
48 hours ago surviving
the Elimination Chamber Match

1770
01:55:41,733 --> 01:55:44,299
and retaining
his United States Championship.

1771
01:55:47,200 --> 01:55:48,566
Theory at pace now.

1772
01:55:49,900 --> 01:55:51,366
[Corey] Look at the power.

1773
01:55:54,900 --> 01:55:57,700
[Kevin Patrick] Edge feeling the effects
as Theory goes to grab the leg

1774
01:55:57,766 --> 01:55:59,933
and looks to win it and retain,
and Edge kicks out.

1775
01:56:03,166 --> 01:56:06,500
[Corey] Beginning to look as though
even The Rated-R Superstar,

1776
01:56:06,566 --> 01:56:10,233
the Hall of Famer Edge
was not adequately prepared

1777
01:56:10,299 --> 01:56:13,500
to experience Austin Theory live.

1778
01:56:13,566 --> 01:56:15,533
[referee] How about it, Edge?
Do you want to quit?

1779
01:56:15,599 --> 01:56:17,099
-[Edge] No.
-[Theory] This is my time.

1780
01:56:17,166 --> 01:56:19,333
You hear me? My time.

1781
01:56:19,733 --> 01:56:21,299
[Kevin Patrick] Edge in agony.

1782
01:56:24,666 --> 01:56:31,166
As the massive crowd here in Ottawa
watch on, we are in WrestleMania season,

1783
01:56:31,233 --> 01:56:33,466
and it's
a United States Championship Match

1784
01:56:34,033 --> 01:56:36,633
with Theory in control now over Edge.

1785
01:56:39,366 --> 01:56:44,166
[Corey] Edge doing his best
to make his way back to his feet.

1786
01:56:44,233 --> 01:56:49,766
The WWE Universe here in Ottawa
cheering on their hero.

1787
01:56:49,833 --> 01:56:51,366
[Kevin Patrick] Cover now.

1788
01:56:51,433 --> 01:56:54,333
Austin Theory once more looking
to retain, Edge kicks out.

1789
01:56:54,400 --> 01:56:58,066
[Corey] This is a smart strategy,
this is a veteran strategy

1790
01:56:58,133 --> 01:57:00,266
that we're seeing play out
from Austin Theory,

1791
01:57:00,333 --> 01:57:04,000
as we look yet again
at Theory taking a shortcut.

1792
01:57:04,066 --> 01:57:09,166
That's something that Edge 9,
10 years ago would not have fallen for…

1793
01:57:09,233 --> 01:57:12,866
Edge was the guy who was bending the rules
before you realized it.

1794
01:57:12,933 --> 01:57:17,599
Now, as we can see, Theory
is a step ahead of the Hall of Famer.

1795
01:57:18,599 --> 01:57:21,766
[Kevin Patrick] You're quick to point out
no wasted movement with Austin Theory,

1796
01:57:21,833 --> 01:57:23,966
straight back in once more to grab Edge.

1797
01:57:24,033 --> 01:57:27,900
[Corey] Theory realizes
that Edge is still extremely dangerous.

1798
01:57:27,966 --> 01:57:30,866
Edge is a massive threat
to Theory's forever reign.

1799
01:57:30,933 --> 01:57:33,833
Austin Theory's playing it
a bit tentative right here.

1800
01:57:33,900 --> 01:57:34,966
Notice a rear chin lock.

1801
01:57:35,033 --> 01:57:37,033
He's not going to beat Edge
with a rear chin lock,

1802
01:57:37,099 --> 01:57:41,733
but he's wearing the Hall of Famer down,
he's making Edge fight from underneath.

1803
01:57:41,799 --> 01:57:44,700
The champion is stacking
the odds against the challenger.

1804
01:57:44,766 --> 01:57:47,400
[Kevin Patrick] Nothing lasts forever,
the words of Edge.

1805
01:57:47,466 --> 01:57:50,766
Man, face first into the turnbuckle.

1806
01:57:51,166 --> 01:57:56,333
[Corey] Theory measuring Edge. Boom.
Right on the jaw. That could do it. Cover.

1807
01:57:56,400 --> 01:57:58,933
[Kevin Patrick] Theory to retain
his United States Championship,

1808
01:57:59,000 --> 01:57:59,900
and Edge kicks out.

1809
01:57:59,966 --> 01:58:01,400
Edge is still alive.

1810
01:58:01,466 --> 01:58:02,500
[Corey] Is he?

1811
01:58:04,700 --> 01:58:07,833
[Kevin Patrick] Austin Theory
has been in complete control.

1812
01:58:07,900 --> 01:58:09,866
It's a United States Championship Match.

1813
01:58:09,933 --> 01:58:11,933
Theory looking to retain
against the Hall of Famer,

1814
01:58:12,000 --> 01:58:17,000
"The Rated-R Superstar" Edge,
but it's been all Austin Theory of late.

1815
01:58:17,066 --> 01:58:18,299
This is the past.

1816
01:58:18,366 --> 01:58:21,433
[Kevin Patrick] The forever champ was able
to weather the early storm

1817
01:58:21,500 --> 01:58:23,766
from The Rated-R Superstar,

1818
01:58:23,833 --> 01:58:26,133
but Theory is growing more
and more dangerous

1819
01:58:26,200 --> 01:58:27,866
as this match progresses.

1820
01:58:28,799 --> 01:58:30,233
This is what it's all about.

1821
01:58:30,299 --> 01:58:35,666
You as a viewer at home may not believe
in Austin Theory, it doesn't matter.

1822
01:58:35,733 --> 01:58:40,599
Austin Theory believes in Austin Theory,
and that has made all the difference.

1823
01:58:43,099 --> 01:58:46,366
Edge now putting the brakes on,
short jabs to the body.

1824
01:58:46,833 --> 01:58:48,799
[Corey] Theory returns the favor.

1825
01:58:48,866 --> 01:58:50,933
Grabs a hold of Edge,
to the corner they go.

1826
01:58:51,633 --> 01:58:54,233
[referee] Out of that turnbuckle.
Theory, bring him down.

1827
01:58:54,299 --> 01:58:55,700
-[Corey] Oh, man.
-[Theory] Shut up.

1828
01:58:56,266 --> 01:58:57,733
[Kevin Patrick] Edge looks rocked.

1829
01:58:57,799 --> 01:59:00,933
48 hours removed from a hellacious battle

1830
01:59:01,000 --> 01:59:04,700
at the Elimination Chamber alongside
his wife and Hall of Famer, Beth Phoenix.

1831
01:59:06,966 --> 01:59:11,566
[Corey] Austin Theory
now setting up for the home run.

1832
01:59:11,633 --> 01:59:14,266
If the champion lands this,
it is game over,

1833
01:59:14,333 --> 01:59:18,466
but Edge trying his best
to fight out of harm's way.

1834
01:59:18,533 --> 01:59:21,566
-[Kevin Patrick] Oh.
-[Corey] Face first goes the champion.

1835
01:59:21,633 --> 01:59:23,000
[Kevin Patrick] Edge has ideas.

1836
01:59:23,066 --> 01:59:25,833
Edge is going to take flight
taking out Theory.

1837
01:59:25,900 --> 01:59:28,366
[Corey] Crossbody to the back
of the champion.

1838
01:59:28,433 --> 01:59:32,066
Can Edge make the cover?
Does Edge have enough left?

1839
01:59:33,099 --> 01:59:37,233
The Hall of Famer trying his best

1840
01:59:37,633 --> 01:59:40,533
to capitalize on the situation,

1841
01:59:40,599 --> 01:59:45,700
but Edge looking a little worse
for wear right now, borderline confused.

1842
01:59:46,700 --> 01:59:53,166
As we look again at The Rated-R Superstar
propelling himself off the top rope,

1843
01:59:53,233 --> 01:59:56,466
crossbody block
to the back of the champion,

1844
01:59:56,533 --> 02:00:01,333
and now Ottawa coming back to life,
trying to cheer on their hero.

1845
02:00:01,900 --> 02:00:04,099
[Kevin Patrick] Edge now
taking down Austin Theory.

1846
02:00:04,166 --> 02:00:06,133
There's life in Edge yet.

1847
02:00:07,966 --> 02:00:12,766
[Corey] Edge bouncing the champion
around like a ping-pong ball. Cover.

1848
02:00:12,833 --> 02:00:15,033
[Kevin Patrick] Edge
for the United States Championship.

1849
02:00:15,433 --> 02:00:17,466
Theory escapes.

1850
02:00:18,766 --> 02:00:24,000
31 championships in WWE,
a Hall of Fame career for Edge.

1851
02:00:24,066 --> 02:00:26,066
Can he add to that tonight?

1852
02:00:28,133 --> 02:00:29,833
[Corey] Theory fights his way out.

1853
02:00:30,933 --> 02:00:34,266
Glancing blows,
first a shot and then an elbow.

1854
02:00:35,400 --> 02:00:36,566
I think this is it.

1855
02:00:39,200 --> 02:00:42,233
Edge able to fight his way out.
Theory I believe was looking for the--

1856
02:00:42,666 --> 02:00:44,766
[Kevin Patrick]
To the outside Theory nearly slipped.

1857
02:00:44,833 --> 02:00:46,733
Blow to the back of the head of Edge.

1858
02:00:46,799 --> 02:00:49,000
[Corey] Oh, and a whiplash effect
across the top rope.

1859
02:00:49,066 --> 02:00:50,966
Remember Edge's surgically repaired neck,

1860
02:00:51,033 --> 02:00:55,566
that's why Edge was forced to retire
from WWE all those years ago.

1861
02:00:55,633 --> 02:00:58,299
[Kevin Patrick] Eyes on the prize.
Oh, Edge has turned it around.

1862
02:00:58,366 --> 02:01:00,200
Edge to win it.

1863
02:01:00,266 --> 02:01:05,599
[Corey] Just barely,
just barely by an eyelash,

1864
02:01:05,666 --> 02:01:08,700
the United States Champion,
Austin Theory, survives.

1865
02:01:08,766 --> 02:01:10,366
[Kevin Patrick] How did Theory do it?

1866
02:01:10,433 --> 02:01:13,566
Edge looked destined
to be the United States Champion.

1867
02:01:15,700 --> 02:01:18,933
[Corey] Again,
you may not like Austin Theory,

1868
02:01:19,000 --> 02:01:22,466
but you cannot argue with his abilities.

1869
02:01:24,433 --> 02:01:25,933
[Kevin Patrick] Now, he's feeling it.

1870
02:01:26,000 --> 02:01:29,400
The look to the WWE Universe
here in Ottawa.

1871
02:01:30,500 --> 02:01:31,900
-Oh.
-[Corey] Great counter.

1872
02:01:31,966 --> 02:01:34,666
Edge face first into the buckle.

1873
02:01:36,533 --> 02:01:38,466
[Kevin Patrick] Edge lands on his feet

1874
02:01:38,533 --> 02:01:40,599
and he makes it look effortless.

1875
02:01:41,266 --> 02:01:45,966
[Corey] Edge wrestling Theory down,
crossface is in, crossface is in.

1876
02:01:46,033 --> 02:01:47,366
The champion's in trouble.

1877
02:01:47,433 --> 02:01:49,000
[Kevin Patrick] Is Theory going to tap?

1878
02:01:50,466 --> 02:01:52,133
He's looking to get to the ropes.

1879
02:01:53,133 --> 02:01:54,333
Is Edge going to be champion?

1880
02:01:54,400 --> 02:01:55,766
[Corey] The champion is desperate,

1881
02:01:55,833 --> 02:01:59,099
reaching for the bottom rope
to force the break.

1882
02:01:59,166 --> 02:02:02,233
Edge is going to have
to relinquish the hold.

1883
02:02:04,266 --> 02:02:08,866
Great job by our official, Shawn Bennett,
had a bird's eye view of everything.

1884
02:02:09,266 --> 02:02:10,866
[Kevin Patrick] Credit to Austin Theory.

1885
02:02:10,933 --> 02:02:15,633
Somehow making it across to the ropes
and now looking to put away Edge.

1886
02:02:15,700 --> 02:02:18,400
Feet on the ropes,
spotted by the official.

1887
02:02:18,466 --> 02:02:21,700
[Corey] Turnabout's fair play, great job
by Shawn Bennett again.

1888
02:02:23,099 --> 02:02:25,799
[Kevin Patrick]
Edge now may seize the opportunity.

1889
02:02:25,866 --> 02:02:27,333
Cover for the win.

1890
02:02:27,400 --> 02:02:28,866
Theory kicking out.

1891
02:02:30,466 --> 02:02:32,633
[Corey] Theory has the challenger up,

1892
02:02:32,700 --> 02:02:35,466
-A-Town, nope.
-[Kevin Patrick] Edge now.

1893
02:02:35,533 --> 02:02:38,700
Edgecution. That's gonna do it.

1894
02:02:38,766 --> 02:02:40,433
[Kevin Patrick] Has he got it within him?

1895
02:02:40,500 --> 02:02:44,966
Cover for the United States Championship,
and Theory's shoulder was raised.

1896
02:02:46,299 --> 02:02:49,133
Oh, my God,
what a match we are witnessing.

1897
02:02:51,266 --> 02:02:55,799
A hellacious battle,
the United States Championship the prize.

1898
02:02:57,166 --> 02:02:58,866
Edge wants gold.

1899
02:03:06,733 --> 02:03:10,233
[Corey] Edge now tapping
into something within,

1900
02:03:10,299 --> 02:03:12,366
something deep inside.

1901
02:03:12,433 --> 02:03:16,799
Something The Rated-R Superstar
has been missing.

1902
02:03:17,200 --> 02:03:19,666
Edge going somewhere else.

1903
02:03:26,033 --> 02:03:30,733
On his home turf, can Edge finish the job?

1904
02:03:30,799 --> 02:03:34,166
Can The Rated-R Superstar
deliver the spear?

1905
02:03:34,233 --> 02:03:36,233
-[Kevin Patrick] Oh.
-[Corey] Damn it, Bálor.

1906
02:03:36,299 --> 02:03:38,099
[Kevin Patrick] Finn Bálor out of nowhere.

1907
02:03:38,599 --> 02:03:41,900
[Corey] Edge now may still win it,
Edge for the championship,

1908
02:03:41,966 --> 02:03:44,799
and somehow Theory kicks out.
Finn Bálor in the way again.

1909
02:03:44,866 --> 02:03:46,666
[Kevin Patrick]
Bálor connected with the kick.

1910
02:03:46,733 --> 02:03:50,200
Now, the champion A-Town Down.

1911
02:03:50,266 --> 02:03:54,466
[Corey] Theory hooks the leg
to retain the United States Championship.

1912
02:03:54,533 --> 02:03:55,500
[bell rings]

1913
02:03:55,566 --> 02:03:58,066
["A-Town Down" playing]

1914
02:03:58,133 --> 02:04:04,033
[Corey] Austin Theory is going to be your
victor and still United States Champion,

1915
02:04:04,099 --> 02:04:09,799
but obviously, The Judgment Day
isn't fading into the rearview mirror.

1916
02:04:10,666 --> 02:04:13,466
The Judgment Day's Finn Bálor is here

1917
02:04:14,333 --> 02:04:19,633
driving daggers into the heart
of the Hall of Famer.

1918
02:04:19,700 --> 02:04:22,033
[Kevin Patrick] Saturday night's
loss at the Chamber

1919
02:04:22,099 --> 02:04:26,266
clearly on the mind of Finn Bálor,
spoiling the proceedings here tonight.

1920
02:04:26,333 --> 02:04:29,400
[Corey] From the top,
Edge in the drop zone.

1921
02:04:29,466 --> 02:04:32,666
Coup de Grace from Finn Bálor.

1922
02:04:34,966 --> 02:04:36,333
[Finin] You think this is over?

1923
02:04:36,400 --> 02:04:40,466
This ain't over,
this is just the beginning.

1924
02:04:42,700 --> 02:04:45,366
[Corey] Bálor with a warning,
this is not over…

1925
02:04:45,433 --> 02:04:49,133
-[referee] Come on. Enough is enough.
-[Corey] …this is just the beginning.

1926
02:04:50,500 --> 02:04:52,900
[Kevin Patrick]
Bálor. Coup de Grace again on Edge.

1927
02:04:52,966 --> 02:04:59,966
[crowd boos]

1928
02:05:05,200 --> 02:05:07,266
[Corey] Take a look at this.
The closing moments.

1929
02:05:07,333 --> 02:05:08,933
Finn Bálor would hit the apron.

1930
02:05:09,000 --> 02:05:13,033
Edge would strike first,
nearly escaped with the championship.

1931
02:05:13,099 --> 02:05:14,566
Watch the kick out.

1932
02:05:14,633 --> 02:05:20,299
Finn from the outside with a kick
to the face of The Rated-R Superstar,

1933
02:05:20,366 --> 02:05:23,700
Double down with ATL down.

1934
02:05:23,766 --> 02:05:27,900
and still the forever reign continues

1935
02:05:27,966 --> 02:05:31,000
for Bálor with a third.

1936
02:05:31,500 --> 02:05:33,066
[Corey] Coup de Grace on Edge.

1937
02:05:33,133 --> 02:05:38,333
A crushing end for the Hall of Famer Edge
in his home country of Canada.
