They made it so that it was
two of the toughest months of my life.

117
00:07:21,466 --> 00:07:25,099
And then for the other two months,
I was plotting how I would end them,

118

like the vermin that they are.

And so, yes, I don't get along
with too many people.

121
00:07:36,566 --> 00:07:39,200
But there are two people
in this ring that I respect

and they haven't been doing anything.

176
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,199
They haven't been doing anything.

177
00:11:06,266 --> 00:11:07,666
You took Dakota Kai.

178
00:11:07,733 --> 00:11:10,366
She was a two-time Tag Team Champion.

179
00:11:10,433 --> 00:11:11,600
You took Dakota.

180
00:11:11,666 --> 00:11:14,833
You took IYO, who was one of the greatest

181
00:11:14,900 --> 00:11:16,866
women's champions in NXT.

182
00:11:16,933 --> 00:11:18,966
And what is she doing?
She ain't doing nothing.

183
00:11:19,033 --> 00:11:21,533
You're not doing nothing
but being a lackey.

184
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,933
You're not doing anything
but being a lackey,

185
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,666
and all you's are doing
is the same old tired stuff

186
00:11:27,733 --> 00:11:29,000
since SummerSlam.

187
00:11:29,066 --> 00:11:31,233
You haven't done anything.

188
00:11:31,300 --> 00:11:33,766
I thought this was gonna end at WarGames.

189
00:11:33,833 --> 00:11:37,500
I thought this was gonna
end in a Steel Cage Match.

190
00:11:37,566 --> 00:11:39,333
I thought this was gonna end

191
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,666
when we took these titles
from your waist, but it's not.

192
00:11:43,733 --> 00:11:47,366
So it can only end at WrestleMania.

193
00:11:49,633 --> 00:11:51,533
[inaudible]

194
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,666
["Celtic Invasion" playing]

195
00:11:53,733 --> 00:11:55,633
[inaudible conversation]

196
00:11:57,433 --> 00:11:58,800
[Kevin] The Man, Becky Lynch.

197
00:11:58,866 --> 00:12:01,266
They'll collide with Damage CTRL
at WrestleMania,

198
00:12:01,333 --> 00:12:03,533
but it's IYO against Becky, next.

199
00:12:08,199 --> 00:12:12,866
[Kevin] Don't miss the new movie,
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.

200
00:12:12,933 --> 00:12:15,166
Only in theaters, Friday.

201
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,933
Welcome back to Monday Night Raw.

202
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,333
-Packed house tonight, 13,568…
-[bell dinging]

203
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,533
…at the Footprint Center
in Phoenix, Arizona.

204
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,466
And a hot start from Becky Lynch.

205
00:12:27,533 --> 00:12:29,300
One-on-one action with IYO SKY.

206
00:12:29,366 --> 00:12:32,733
[Corey] Becky right out of the gate,
bringing the fight to IYO SKY.

207
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,466
The Man is on a roll tonight in Phoenix.

208
00:12:35,533 --> 00:12:37,466
[crowd chanting] Becky! Becky! Becky!

209
00:12:37,533 --> 00:12:39,433
[Kevin] We heard
an impassioned Becky Lynch

210
00:12:39,500 --> 00:12:40,833
before the commercial break.

211
00:12:40,900 --> 00:12:44,199
Tired of the same old stuff
from Damage CTRL.

212
00:12:45,599 --> 00:12:48,666
[Corey] Lynch getting ready
for the Bexploder Suplex.

213
00:12:50,366 --> 00:12:51,366
There we go.

214
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,500
[Kevin] Watching on, the Hall of Famers,
Trish Stratus and Lita.

215
00:12:55,566 --> 00:12:57,933
-Ooh!
-[Corey] And a second Bexploder.

216
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,233
IYO wisely rolling to the outside.

217
00:13:00,833 --> 00:13:02,199
[inaudible conversation]

218
00:13:03,133 --> 00:13:05,800
[Corey] Lynch continuing to assault IYO.

219
00:13:06,699 --> 00:13:09,699
[Kevin] And just five days
before WrestleMania.

220
00:13:09,766 --> 00:13:12,500
Becky takes a climb,
looking for the leg drop.

221
00:13:12,566 --> 00:13:14,566
Hey! You two. [indistinct]

222
00:13:14,633 --> 00:13:17,699
[Corey] WrestleMania will truly
takeover Hollywood

223
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,699
this Saturday and Sunday,
streaming live on Peacock.

224
00:13:21,766 --> 00:13:24,966
Wait, a second.
Lynch has two fistfuls of Bayley's--

225
00:13:25,033 --> 00:13:25,866
Ooh!

226
00:13:26,300 --> 00:13:27,266
…Bayley's hair,

227
00:13:27,333 --> 00:13:30,099
and IYO capitalizing on the distraction.

228
00:13:31,833 --> 00:13:34,733
Both of these trios
will compete against one another

229
00:13:35,933 --> 00:13:36,833
this weekend.

230
00:13:36,900 --> 00:13:42,099
Over 75,000 members
of the WWE Universe expected each night.

231
00:13:42,166 --> 00:13:44,466
Make sure you leave early
if you're heading there live.

232
00:13:44,533 --> 00:13:47,933
You're gonna have traffic
all over the place. You know about LA.

233
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,666
[Kevin] Absolutely. Hang on a second.

234
00:13:49,733 --> 00:13:52,433
Cover here, IYO SKY.
Kick out early by Becky Lynch.

235
00:13:55,266 --> 00:13:57,166
Becky Lynch told me earlier,
this, a year ago,

236
00:13:57,233 --> 00:13:59,599
would have been a dream match
for her against IYO SKY.

237
00:13:59,666 --> 00:14:01,933
Not anymore.
She just wants to destroy her.

238
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,300
[Corey] Becky echoed
those similar sentiments

239
00:14:04,366 --> 00:14:06,199
regarding the entire situation.

240
00:14:06,266 --> 00:14:07,766
I'm sorry, Bayley did earlier.

241
00:14:07,833 --> 00:14:11,466
[crowd chanting] Let's go, Becky!
Let's go, Becky!

242
00:14:11,533 --> 00:14:13,766
[Corey] This is a opportunity
for both of these ladies

243
00:14:13,833 --> 00:14:16,366
to gain some semblance of an advantage
over the other team--

244
00:14:16,433 --> 00:14:18,233
Oh! …prior to WrestleMania.

245
00:14:19,766 --> 00:14:22,033
If nothing else, to study the opposition.

246
00:14:22,833 --> 00:14:24,266
Bayley's fired up, covered by IYO.

247
00:14:24,333 --> 00:14:26,800
[Kevin] Grabs the leg, IYO looking to win.
Becky kicking out.

248
00:14:27,633 --> 00:14:32,633
[Corey] Take a look at the precision
on the dropkick from IYO SKY.

249
00:14:33,266 --> 00:14:35,233
Now bringing the fight to The Man.

250
00:14:35,833 --> 00:14:38,000
[Kevin] How much does it say,
Corey, about Becky Lynch,

251
00:14:38,066 --> 00:14:39,900
that Hall of Famers, Trish and Lita,

252
00:14:39,966 --> 00:14:42,366
are standing by her side here,
close to WrestleMania.

253
00:14:42,433 --> 00:14:45,033
[Corey] I mean you can't buy
that sort of endorsement,

254
00:14:45,099 --> 00:14:46,133
you need a Hall of Fame--

255
00:14:46,199 --> 00:14:47,566
Obviously, Lita and Trish Stratus

256
00:14:47,633 --> 00:14:49,400
have a great deal of respect
for Becky Lynch

257
00:14:49,466 --> 00:14:52,066
and what The Man
has accomplished in her career.

258
00:14:52,133 --> 00:14:53,233
Unfortunately for Lynch,

259
00:14:53,300 --> 00:14:56,333
when you reach those heights,
you become a target.

260
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,333
[Kevin] Look at this, trading blows,

261
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,933
and it's The Man, Becky Lynch,
in control now.

262
00:15:02,466 --> 00:15:05,966
-Oh!
-[Corey] Shotei uppercut rocks Lynch.

263
00:15:10,133 --> 00:15:11,199
[Kevin] Ooh!

264
00:15:11,266 --> 00:15:14,166
[Corey] And The Man answers.
Down goes IYO.

265
00:15:16,266 --> 00:15:17,900
[Lita] You got it. Becky, take a breath.

266
00:15:17,966 --> 00:15:20,166
[Corey] You got the Hall of Famers
on the outside

267
00:15:20,833 --> 00:15:22,166
trying to motivate Lynch.

268
00:15:22,233 --> 00:15:24,933
You've got Bayley and Dakota
of Damage CTRL

269
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,466
looking on in support of IYO.

270
00:15:27,533 --> 00:15:31,466
And the WWE Universe
is live tonight here in Phoenix.

271
00:15:31,533 --> 00:15:33,266
It feels like WrestleMania week.

272
00:15:33,333 --> 00:15:34,633
[Kevin] It does. Absolutely.

273
00:15:34,699 --> 00:15:37,466
You have to wonder who's gonna
have the advantage at WrestleMania.

274
00:15:37,533 --> 00:15:41,066
Think of the chemistry
that Damage CTRL have had

275
00:15:41,133 --> 00:15:44,500
since returning at SummerSlam
in Nashville last summer.

276
00:15:47,066 --> 00:15:51,933
[Corey] Becky Lynch eager to banish
Damage CTRL into her past.

277
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:52,866
[Kevin] Oh!

278
00:15:52,933 --> 00:15:54,500
[Corey] Could all occur this weekend,

279
00:15:54,566 --> 00:15:57,833
as a dropkick sends IYO
halfway up the ramp.

280
00:15:57,900 --> 00:15:59,433
[Kevin] And Becky Lynch has ideas--

281
00:15:59,500 --> 00:16:00,900
From the apron!

282
00:16:05,133 --> 00:16:06,466
-Oh!
-[Corey] The Man…

283
00:16:07,199 --> 00:16:09,699
with little Baseball Slide dropkick.

284
00:16:09,766 --> 00:16:11,466
Incredibly effective.

285
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,633
A series of kicks
right across the chest of IYO,

286
00:16:14,699 --> 00:16:16,166
and The Man making the climb.

287
00:16:17,900 --> 00:16:20,633
[Kevin] There's an aggression
in Becky Lynch tonight.

288
00:16:20,699 --> 00:16:23,433
Just days before
the Showcase of the Immortals.

289
00:16:24,199 --> 00:16:26,300
[Corey] Lynch wants
another Bexploder suplex.

290
00:16:26,366 --> 00:16:27,633
IYO able to fight out.

291
00:16:28,633 --> 00:16:31,766
[Kevin] Oh! Becky now,
may put away IYO SKY here.

292
00:16:31,833 --> 00:16:33,033
And a kick out by IYO.

293
00:16:33,099 --> 00:16:35,433
[Corey] Painful-looking landing for IYO.

294
00:16:36,033 --> 00:16:39,500
That modified inverted DDT
executed by Lynch.

295
00:16:39,566 --> 00:16:41,366
[speaking indistinctly]

296
00:16:44,666 --> 00:16:48,233
[Corey] And the WWE Universe
is firmly behind Lynch.

297
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,966
Looking for the Manhandle Slam,
great counter by IYO.

298
00:16:52,033 --> 00:16:54,599
-[Kevin] Oh, man.
-[Corey] Double stomp.

299
00:16:55,233 --> 00:16:58,333
[Kevin] Hammering the ribs of Becky Lynch.
Now IYO SKY wants to win this.

300
00:16:58,400 --> 00:16:59,366
Kick out by Becky.

301
00:16:59,433 --> 00:17:01,900
What a match. Lynch is still alive.

302
00:17:01,966 --> 00:17:03,000
[Corey] Is she?

303
00:17:07,033 --> 00:17:09,166
[Kevin] Becky Lynch and IYO SKY
from the top rope.

304
00:17:09,233 --> 00:17:11,833
[Corey] Superplex. Cover by Lynch.

305
00:17:11,899 --> 00:17:14,633
[Kevin] Becky Lynch
now for the victory, and IYO kicks out.

306
00:17:14,700 --> 00:17:17,266
What a match
we are witnessing here tonight

307
00:17:17,333 --> 00:17:19,099
from Phoenix, Arizona.

308
00:17:19,166 --> 00:17:23,200
Becky Lynch alongside the Hall of Famers,
Trish Stratus and Lita.

309
00:17:23,266 --> 00:17:25,333
[Corey] And the action
continued during the break,

310
00:17:25,399 --> 00:17:27,833
as IYO SKY, living up to her namesake,

311
00:17:27,899 --> 00:17:30,633
soaring through it
with a beautiful dropkick

312
00:17:30,700 --> 00:17:32,333
that nearly put Lynch away.

313
00:17:32,399 --> 00:17:35,866
But Lynch would counter
with an epic superplex,

314
00:17:35,933 --> 00:17:38,000
but IYO would survive.

315
00:17:39,433 --> 00:17:43,133
[Kevin] "Epic," the right word there
as this match continues.

316
00:17:43,899 --> 00:17:47,100
They will meet again at WrestleMania
in tag team action.

317
00:17:47,166 --> 00:17:50,100
[Corey] Think of how personal
this has all been for Becky Lynch.

318
00:17:50,166 --> 00:17:52,766
Damage CTRL has quite literally
made her life hell

319
00:17:52,833 --> 00:17:55,066
-since SummerSlam of last year.
-[IYO yelling]

320
00:17:55,133 --> 00:17:57,533
[Corey] Oh! Beautiful German suplex.

321
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,700
Unable to complete the bridge.

322
00:18:01,100 --> 00:18:02,866
And a second one does it.

323
00:18:02,933 --> 00:18:04,166
[Kevin] Cover for the win now.

324
00:18:04,233 --> 00:18:05,433
Becky Lynch still alive.

325
00:18:05,500 --> 00:18:08,500
[Corey] Just barely escaping
before the count of three.

326
00:18:09,333 --> 00:18:11,133
And Bayley is over here at our desk,

327
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,766
requesting a replay
of the fantastic German suplexes

328
00:18:15,833 --> 00:18:18,233
-executed by IYO SKY moments ago.
-[indistinct]

329
00:18:18,300 --> 00:18:19,866
[Kevin] Corey, you've been in the ring.

330
00:18:19,933 --> 00:18:23,000
How impressive is everything
IYO SKY is capable of doing?

331
00:18:23,066 --> 00:18:25,433
[Corey] The same has to be said
for both of these women.

332
00:18:25,500 --> 00:18:28,833
Oh! As we look again
at the German suplex from IYO.

333
00:18:28,899 --> 00:18:31,000
The same has to be said
for all six of these women.

334
00:18:31,066 --> 00:18:32,933
We've got two Hall of Famers

335
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,300
already involved this weekend
at WrestleMania,

336
00:18:36,366 --> 00:18:38,333
and potentially four more in the making

337
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:41,066
in one match alone.

338
00:18:41,766 --> 00:18:43,466
[Kevin] Outrageous to think about.

339
00:18:43,533 --> 00:18:48,166
From SoFi Stadium,
over 75,000 fans both nights.

340
00:18:48,233 --> 00:18:51,433
Now Becky Lynch has ideas
on the top rope. Kick connects.

341
00:18:52,233 --> 00:18:53,500
[both grunting]

342
00:18:54,533 --> 00:18:56,899
[Corey] I like what I'm seeing
out of IYO SKY tonight.

343
00:18:56,966 --> 00:18:58,133
Extremely impressive.

344
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,766
Wow! My goodness!

345
00:19:02,300 --> 00:19:04,000
That was incredible.

346
00:19:04,066 --> 00:19:07,066
[Kevin] The Genius of the Sky
sending Lynch to the outside.

347
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,166
No, no, no.

348
00:19:09,233 --> 00:19:12,066
[Corey] And IYO making it look effortless.

349
00:19:12,966 --> 00:19:14,133
Wow!

350
00:19:14,733 --> 00:19:15,933
[Kevin] Springboard moonsault.

351
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,533
Wants Becky Lynch
back inside the ring and fast.

352
00:19:19,399 --> 00:19:22,433
Cover now for IYO SKY and Damage CTRL.

353
00:19:22,500 --> 00:19:23,800
Lynch kicking out at two.

354
00:19:24,566 --> 00:19:27,133
[Corey] Take another look at this poetry.

355
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:31,466
IYO soaring through the sky
before taking down The Man.

356
00:19:31,533 --> 00:19:33,366
[crowd chanting indistinctly]

357
00:19:33,433 --> 00:19:38,100
[Corey] You can see the battle wounds
on the chin of IYO.

358
00:19:41,300 --> 00:19:44,166
[Kevin] Reminder tonight,
The Ring General, Gunther.

359
00:19:44,233 --> 00:19:48,300
[Corey] We could be in
for an over the moonsault.

360
00:19:48,366 --> 00:19:49,666
Here it comes!

361
00:19:49,733 --> 00:19:51,266
Lynch out of the way!

362
00:19:51,333 --> 00:19:53,433
[Kevin] Scouted the danger,
did Becky Lynch.

363
00:19:53,500 --> 00:19:55,233
Maybe wants The Disarm-her.

364
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:57,899
[Corey] Great counter.

365
00:20:02,233 --> 00:20:04,433
[Kevin] Lynch, manhandle slam!

366
00:20:04,500 --> 00:20:05,733
Stacking up IYO SKY!

367
00:20:06,533 --> 00:20:08,333
-Gets the win!
-[bell dinging]

368
00:20:08,399 --> 00:20:10,733
["Celtic Invasion" playing]

369
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:17,233
[announcer] Here is your winner,
The Man, Becky Lynch!

370
00:20:17,300 --> 00:20:20,333
[Corey] What an effort tonight by IYO SKY.

371
00:20:20,399 --> 00:20:24,666
But it has to feel good
for Lynch, Lita and Stratus

372
00:20:24,733 --> 00:20:28,500
as they prepare for
a six-woman tag team matchup

373
00:20:28,566 --> 00:20:32,200
this weekend at WrestleMania.

374
00:20:34,733 --> 00:20:36,566
[Kevin] You used the word "epic", Corey.

375
00:20:36,633 --> 00:20:38,066
That is an epic trio.

376
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,700
Lita, Lynch and Trish Stratus.

377
00:20:43,566 --> 00:20:45,866
[Corey] Well, this is also
an opportunity for Damage CTRL

378
00:20:45,933 --> 00:20:47,733
to re-formulate their game plan.

379
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,566
IYO, I'm sure, picked up a few hits,

380
00:20:49,633 --> 00:20:53,600
a few tendencies of Becky Lynch
in the matchup we just witnessed.

381
00:20:53,666 --> 00:20:56,933
I cannot wait to watch
these six tear the house down

382
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,966
at SoFi Stadium at WrestleMania.

383
00:20:59,033 --> 00:21:00,433
Oh, man. WrestleMania Sunday,

384
00:21:00,533 --> 00:21:03,500
the biggest night, no question,
of Cody Rhodes' life.

385
00:21:03,566 --> 00:21:04,666
And last week on Raw,

386
00:21:04,733 --> 00:21:07,833
Cody absorbed all that
Roman Reigns threw at him.

387
00:21:07,899 --> 00:21:09,733
And then he took out his magic 8 ball

388
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,066
and predicted what life
is gonna look like for Roman

389
00:21:12,133 --> 00:21:13,933
after Cody beats him at WrestleMania.

390
00:21:15,833 --> 00:21:19,600
There you'll be, a man without a family.

391
00:21:20,166 --> 00:21:23,600
A Roman with no more reigns.

392
00:21:24,700 --> 00:21:28,433
A chief without a tribe.

393
00:21:30,166 --> 00:21:33,000
[crowd chanting] Cody! Cody! Cody!

394
00:21:34,066 --> 00:21:35,433
[microphone thuds]

395
00:21:38,500 --> 00:21:39,700
[inaudible]

396
00:21:40,700 --> 00:21:42,266
-What's he doing?
-I don't know.

397
00:21:42,333 --> 00:21:45,833
It's like I said,
I knew you weren't ready.

398
00:21:50,433 --> 00:21:54,399
[Corey] Cody would avoid
the Samoan Spike attempt by Solo Sikoa,

399
00:21:54,466 --> 00:21:57,566
before The Tribal Chief
would call off The Enforcer.

400
00:21:59,033 --> 00:22:01,600
Cody Rhodes,

401
00:22:01,666 --> 00:22:05,833
you go one versus one

402
00:22:05,899 --> 00:22:09,233
against Solo!

403
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,899
Undefeated, and as good as you are,

404
00:22:12,966 --> 00:22:16,433
you're not ready.

405
00:22:22,500 --> 00:22:23,733
[crowd cheering]

406
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:25,166
[Kevin] Could those words,

407
00:22:25,233 --> 00:22:28,100
"You're not ready,"
from Cody Rhodes backfire

408
00:22:28,166 --> 00:22:31,266
days before the biggest night
of his life at WrestleMania?

409
00:22:31,333 --> 00:22:34,266
The American Nightmare, tonight,
goes one on one

410
00:22:34,333 --> 00:22:37,100
with The Enforcer of The Bloodline,
Solo Sikoa.

411
00:22:41,500 --> 00:22:43,266
[Kevin] WrestleMania Week is upon us,

412
00:22:43,333 --> 00:22:46,666
and we are thrilled to be
in Phoenix, Arizona tonight,

413
00:22:46,733 --> 00:22:50,466
just five days away
from the Showcase of the Immortals,

414
00:22:50,533 --> 00:22:53,933
where arguably the most
unpredictable superstar within WWE

415
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,166
has sights set on becoming
a champion once again.

416
00:23:01,266 --> 00:23:07,533
[announcer] From Osaka, Japan, Asuka!

417
00:23:08,033 --> 00:23:11,700
Prior to, I had knowledge
of what she was known for in Japan

418
00:23:11,766 --> 00:23:13,200
and what a dominant force she was,

419
00:23:13,266 --> 00:23:17,466
but once Asuka arrived in NXT,
Asuka was a game changer.

420
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,866
I remember watching her,
thinking, "This woman is scary."

421
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,033
[commentator 1] Asuka has run through
everyone in the division.

422
00:23:27,700 --> 00:23:29,600
At NXT, she was like a buzzsaw,

423
00:23:29,666 --> 00:23:32,133
and it wasn't long
before she became champion.

424
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,033
[commentator 2] Asuka, middle of the ring.
Asuka Lock.

425
00:23:35,100 --> 00:23:36,600
-She's done!
-[bell dinging]

426
00:23:36,666 --> 00:23:39,566
[commentator 3] The Empress
crowned here in Dallas.

427
00:23:41,033 --> 00:23:45,333
No one is ready for Asuka!

428
00:23:45,399 --> 00:23:49,133
For Asuka to go out there
and run through the NXT roster,

429
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,833
and then run through
the main roster as well,

430
00:23:52,899 --> 00:23:55,633
it is a huge accolade.

431
00:23:55,700 --> 00:23:57,833
[commentator 4]
It is the longest such streak

432
00:23:57,899 --> 00:24:03,666
in the history of WWE
male or female superstars.

433
00:24:03,733 --> 00:24:07,899
When Asuka can go
years of being undefeated,

434
00:24:07,966 --> 00:24:10,600
that's just showing
that she's in a class all by herself.

435
00:24:13,533 --> 00:24:15,333
I look at Asuka and I'm in awe.

436
00:24:15,399 --> 00:24:17,033
This woman can do it all.

437
00:24:17,100 --> 00:24:20,800
[commentator 5] Asuka won the first-ever
women's Royal Rumble Match.

438
00:24:20,866 --> 00:24:22,766
Miss money in the bank!

439
00:24:22,833 --> 00:24:25,200
[commentator 6] Former two-time
Raw Women's Champion.

440
00:24:25,266 --> 00:24:27,033
[commentator 7] Women's Tag Team Champion.

441
00:24:27,100 --> 00:24:29,300
[commentator 8]
SmackDown Women's Champion.

442
00:24:29,366 --> 00:24:33,700
[Corey] One of the most
feared women in the business.

443
00:24:33,766 --> 00:24:35,733
[commentator 9]
Asuka is your lone survivor.

444
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,666
[commentator 10]
Asuka is going to WrestleMania,

445
00:24:38,733 --> 00:24:41,000
for a Raw Women's Championship Match

446
00:24:41,066 --> 00:24:42,733
with Bianca Belair.

447
00:24:44,733 --> 00:24:47,700
Asuka will prevail
because her psychological games

448
00:24:47,766 --> 00:24:50,966
provide the X factor
that Bianca hasn't seen,

449
00:24:51,533 --> 00:24:53,600
and I don't think
she's quite prepared for.

450
00:24:54,433 --> 00:24:57,033
[Corey] WrestleMania is on the horizon.

451
00:24:57,100 --> 00:24:59,833
Is Bianca ready for Asuka?

452
00:25:03,066 --> 00:25:06,600
[Kevin] Bianca Belair is approaching
a full calendar year

453
00:25:06,666 --> 00:25:08,266
as Raw Women's Champion.

454
00:25:08,333 --> 00:25:11,466
The EST is looking
to three-peat at WrestleMania.

455
00:25:11,533 --> 00:25:14,300
But can she get past
The Empress of Tomorrow,

456
00:25:14,366 --> 00:25:16,866
the unpredictable and powerful Asuka?

457
00:25:16,933 --> 00:25:18,566
What a match that promises to be.

458
00:25:19,266 --> 00:25:22,466
It's a match that currently
has the entire WWE Universe buzzing

459
00:25:22,533 --> 00:25:26,066
because I don't know if you know or not,
but it's WrestleMania week.

460
00:25:26,133 --> 00:25:28,466
And I cannot wait to see
how the weekend unfolds,

461
00:25:28,533 --> 00:25:31,399
particularly in the case
of one of my personal favorites.

462
00:25:31,466 --> 00:25:33,566
-Are you talking about Seth Rollins?
-I might be.

463
00:25:33,633 --> 00:25:36,399
[laughs] Seth Rollins
has won it all in WWE.

464
00:25:36,466 --> 00:25:39,100
But that hasn't stopped Logan Paul
from getting under his skin.

465
00:25:39,166 --> 00:25:42,899
But Rollins didn't hold back
after derailing Impaulsive TV last week,

466
00:25:42,966 --> 00:25:44,699
Rollins went after Paul.

467
00:25:46,166 --> 00:25:48,500
[Corey] The two had to be separated.

468
00:25:49,866 --> 00:25:52,000
Battling all over ringside.

469
00:25:52,066 --> 00:25:54,399
And as Rollins appeared
to gain the upper hand

470
00:25:54,466 --> 00:25:57,766
and utilize one of Logan's
own tactics against him,

471
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:01,100
security would take the fall,

472
00:26:01,166 --> 00:26:03,866
opening the door for Logan Paul

473
00:26:03,933 --> 00:26:07,000
to yet again turn out
Seth Rollins' lights.

474
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,500
Excuse me, Logan. Can I get a question?

475
00:26:09,566 --> 00:26:11,100
After everything that happened at--

476
00:26:11,166 --> 00:26:12,600
Yeah. Here's your answer.

477
00:26:12,666 --> 00:26:13,866
I beat Seth Rollins again,

478
00:26:13,933 --> 00:26:16,533
and I'm gonna beat him at WrestleMania,
April 1st, on my birthday.

479
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:17,833
Best birthday ever.

480
00:26:17,899 --> 00:26:19,466
-Any more questions?
-No.

481
00:26:19,533 --> 00:26:20,600
I'll take it from here.

482
00:26:20,666 --> 00:26:22,233
You better watch out, Seth!

483
00:26:22,766 --> 00:26:24,699
WrestleMania, I'm coming.

484
00:26:24,766 --> 00:26:26,066
Whoo!

485
00:26:28,100 --> 00:26:30,666
I'm waiting to get in a word
with Seth "Freakin" Rollins.

486
00:26:30,733 --> 00:26:32,433
-Oh, Seth.
-[crowd cheering]

487
00:26:32,500 --> 00:26:34,166
Cathy. My favorite.

488
00:26:34,233 --> 00:26:36,199
Give me the tea. Give me the tea.
What you got?

489
00:26:36,266 --> 00:26:38,366
Okay. Well, Logan Paul

490
00:26:38,433 --> 00:26:40,899
has sucker punched you
and knocked you out,

491
00:26:40,966 --> 00:26:43,966
not once, but twice in recent weeks.

492
00:26:44,033 --> 00:26:46,533
Do you have anything left to say to him
ahead of your match,

493
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,100
one on one, this weekend at WrestleMania?

494
00:26:51,433 --> 00:26:55,800
Actually, Seth has nothing nice to say,

495
00:26:55,866 --> 00:26:58,633
so he's not gonna say anything at all.

496
00:27:00,100 --> 00:27:01,100
Whoa, whoa. Seth.

497
00:27:01,766 --> 00:27:06,533
I just want to help you
see the more positive side

498
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,266
to Logan Paul knocking you out.

499
00:27:09,266 --> 00:27:10,199
Twice.

500
00:27:10,833 --> 00:27:14,300
Listen, Logan and his crew had no idea

501
00:27:14,366 --> 00:27:16,733
who you even were before The Royal Rumble.

502
00:27:17,466 --> 00:27:18,800
And now…

503
00:27:19,633 --> 00:27:23,466
And now, Logan and his millions of fans,

504
00:27:23,533 --> 00:27:25,933
they can't wait to see if he's gonna land

505
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,333
another one of those lucky punches

506
00:27:28,966 --> 00:27:30,066
at WrestleMania.

507
00:27:30,933 --> 00:27:33,500
Honestly, you should be more grateful.

508
00:27:34,199 --> 00:27:38,866
You need to start
thinking more positive-ali.

509
00:27:40,866 --> 00:27:42,733
[laughs]

510
00:27:44,466 --> 00:27:46,000
I get it. I get it.

511
00:27:46,066 --> 00:27:47,266
Positively.

512
00:27:47,333 --> 00:27:48,866
-Positive-ali.
-Yeah, yeah.

513
00:27:48,933 --> 00:27:50,266
-Positive-ali.
-Yeah, yeah.

514
00:27:50,333 --> 00:27:51,866
[laughs] Genius.

515
00:27:51,933 --> 00:27:53,566

Rollins has been embarrassed
now twice by Logan Paul.

Yes, Logan Paul's an amazing athlete.

WWE superstar thus far.

[Kevin] So behind all the dancing
and all the smiling,

598
00:32:01,366 --> 00:32:04,633
there's a fire raging deep within
Seth "Freakin" Rollins.

You're not thinking.

[Corey] You're absolutely right.
I think Mustafa Ali is on the verge

603
00:32:12,566 --> 00:32:14,800
of experiencing that fire firsthand.

604
00:32:15,366 --> 00:32:17,300
But what an opportunity this is for Ali.

605

I mean, I'd buy a Positive-Ali shirt.

with Seth "Freakin" Rollins

689
00:37:12,500 --> 00:37:14,033
at WrestleMania Saturday.

♪ Woah, oh-oh… ♪

693
00:37:24,933 --> 00:37:26,233
You've got to be kidding me.

694
00:37:26,299 --> 00:37:27,933
Boogs challenged me this match.

695
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:31,133
I'm trying to get out of the slump I'm in,
I could've done that tonight.

696
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:32,400
Then there's WrestleMania.

697
00:37:32,466 --> 00:37:34,933
I don't even have WrestleMania match,
and it's embarrassing.

698
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:36,566
I'm flying all over the country.

699
00:37:36,633 --> 00:37:38,533
I'm doing signings, I'm doing media,

700
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:40,833
I'm doing meet-and-greets
all about WrestleMania.

701
00:37:40,900 --> 00:37:41,799
I appreciate that.

702
00:37:41,866 --> 00:37:44,133
Yeah, you do.
I used to run this show just like you.

703
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,133
You got to give me a break, man.

704
00:37:46,799 --> 00:37:48,400
Actually, speaking of breaks,

705
00:37:48,466 --> 00:37:50,366
I'm gonna need a moment
to break my foot off

706
00:37:50,433 --> 00:37:51,766
in Adam Pearce's behind.

707
00:37:51,833 --> 00:37:53,266
Really classy.

708
00:37:53,333 --> 00:37:57,100
You and Boogs can fight it out on Friday
in the Andre the Giant Battle Royal, okay?

709
00:37:57,166 --> 00:37:59,000
Excuse me just for a second.

710
00:37:59,066 --> 00:37:59,966
Thank you.

711
00:38:01,066 --> 00:38:03,633
Thank you. I'm gonna need to know ASAP,

712
00:38:03,700 --> 00:38:05,333
why I'm not in the WrestleMania

713
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,066
Women's Showcase
Fatal 4-Way Tag Team Match?

714
00:38:08,133 --> 00:38:09,866
Chelsea, you don't
have a tag team partner.

715
00:38:09,933 --> 00:38:12,700
Piper Niven doesn't want
anything to do with you. Listen to me.

716
00:38:12,766 --> 00:38:14,700
-I've been looking at the--
-No, no, no. No.

717
00:38:14,766 --> 00:38:15,933
Do not mansplain

718
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:17,900
-your incompetence to me, Adam.
-Of course.

719
00:38:17,966 --> 00:38:21,833
-I don't have time for that.
-I could not have said that better myself.

720
00:38:21,900 --> 00:38:24,033
-You know what I think it is with Adam?
-[mouthing]

721
00:38:24,100 --> 00:38:28,033
I did his job better than he did his job,
so he's intimidated by me.

722
00:38:28,100 --> 00:38:30,933
But maybe he's just
intimidated by strong women.

723
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,633
-That's why I'm not in WrestleMania?
-If I could finish…

724
00:38:33,700 --> 00:38:35,500
As I was saying,
I was looking at the roster,

725
00:38:35,566 --> 00:38:38,533
and I figured out who's gonna be
the last team in this qualifying match.

726
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:39,633
And it struck me.

727
00:38:41,233 --> 00:38:42,133
You two.

728
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,100
Yeah, you two.

729
00:38:44,166 --> 00:38:46,466
Why not? Call yourselves,
"The complaint department",

730
00:38:46,533 --> 00:38:49,200
call yourselves, "Misery loves company."
Whatever you want.

731
00:38:49,266 --> 00:38:50,833
But if you want a way into WrestleMania,

732
00:38:50,900 --> 00:38:53,233
you can do it tonight,
against Michin and Candice LeRae.

733
00:38:53,299 --> 00:38:55,833
The winning team becomes the final team

734
00:38:55,900 --> 00:38:58,366
in the Showcase Match at WrestleMania.

735
00:38:58,433 --> 00:39:00,799
He's not usually smart,
but that was smart.

736
00:39:00,866 --> 00:39:03,400
-I like this.
-The first thing I like that he's said.

737
00:39:03,466 --> 00:39:04,500
-You like it?
-Yep.

738
00:39:04,566 --> 00:39:05,500
-You're happy?
-Mmm-hmm.

739
00:39:05,566 --> 00:39:06,933
First thing you've ever done well.

740
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,133
-Thank you. Can I have my office back?
-Let's go.

741
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:14,433
Seriously?

742
00:39:21,799 --> 00:39:23,466
[Kevin] This is absolutely massive.

743
00:39:23,533 --> 00:39:25,600
A career-altering match.

744
00:39:25,666 --> 00:39:29,700
Who is headed to WrestleMania
and the Fatal 4-Way Match?

745
00:39:29,766 --> 00:39:32,533
We will find out, coming up here on Raw.

746
00:39:33,366 --> 00:39:35,433
[Corey] But up next, I got to get going.

747
00:39:35,500 --> 00:39:40,400
It's the biggest match happening
at WrestleMania, quite literally,

748
00:39:40,466 --> 00:39:43,166
and we're gonna make it official
with a weigh-in, next.

749
00:39:49,233 --> 00:39:52,500
[Kevin] WrestleMania
is presented by SNICKERS.

750
00:39:52,566 --> 00:39:54,133
SNICKERS satisfies.

751
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,500
And by WWE 2K23.

752
00:39:56,566 --> 00:40:00,666
WWE 2K23 has arrived,
and this time it's even stronger.

The all-new WarGames
and the Never Give Up 2k Showcase,

754
00:40:04,100 --> 00:40:08,000
where fans can play through key moments
in John Cena's 20-year career.

Now, folks, let's hand it over
to Corey Graves

758
00:40:16,100 --> 00:40:19,333
and WWE official, Adam Pearce,
in the ring.

759
00:40:20,299 --> 00:40:23,833
Welcome, everyone,
to the official WrestleMania weigh-in.

760
00:40:24,466 --> 00:40:29,833
For a matchup that is very literally
one of the biggest matches

761
00:40:29,900 --> 00:40:32,200
taking place this weekend at WrestleMania.

762
00:40:33,100 --> 00:40:36,400
So without any further ado,
allow me to introduce to you,

763
00:40:36,466 --> 00:40:39,100
accompanied by MVP,

764
00:40:39,166 --> 00:40:43,533
he is The Nigerian Giant, Omos.

765
00:40:45,233 --> 00:40:47,933
["The Giant" playing]

766
00:41:02,500 --> 00:41:04,500
[Kevin] A sight to behold.

767
00:41:05,299 --> 00:41:11,433
Seven-foot-three,
standing tall alongside MVP.

768
00:41:12,933 --> 00:41:17,833
The Nigerian Giant, Omos,
is headed to WrestleMania.

769
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,600
It was two weeks ago on Monday Night Raw,

770
00:41:27,666 --> 00:41:30,766
we saw face to face
for the very first time

771
00:41:30,833 --> 00:41:34,433
between Omos and The Beast Incarnate,
Brock Lesnar.

772
00:41:34,500 --> 00:41:36,900
And Lesnar entered the ring
with a smile on his face,

773
00:41:37,700 --> 00:41:42,566
and that was quickly wiped away
by the paws of The Nigerian Giant.

774
00:41:43,466 --> 00:41:45,066
[inaudible]

775
00:41:46,900 --> 00:41:49,566
[Kevin] The nerves, the trepidation
quickly entered.

776
00:41:49,633 --> 00:41:52,700
Something we very rarely see
from Brock Lesnar.

777
00:41:57,766 --> 00:42:00,866
Brock Lesnar did everything
in his power to take down Omos,

778
00:42:00,933 --> 00:42:03,799
but ultimately, it was The Nigerian Giant

779
00:42:03,866 --> 00:42:07,466
who would effortlessly
toss Brock Lesnar from the ring.

780
00:42:07,533 --> 00:42:09,366
Ah! This is my house!

781
00:42:10,733 --> 00:42:12,566
[Kevin] "This is my house", says Omos.

782
00:42:12,633 --> 00:42:15,100
But will it be his house at SoFi Stadium?

783
00:42:15,166 --> 00:42:17,166

786
00:42:37,966 --> 00:42:39,966
And his opponent…

787
00:42:41,866 --> 00:42:44,666
I'll take it from here, Mr. Graves.
Thank you very much.

[crowd booing]

789
00:42:51,700 --> 00:42:55,133
Before we are joined
by The Beast Incarnate,

790
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,200
I'd like to remind everyone

791
00:42:57,266 --> 00:43:00,933
that this is one final opportunity
for all of you,

792
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:02,933
and for you, Brock Lesnar,

793
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,266
to see the specimen
that is The Nigerian Giant.

794
00:43:08,633 --> 00:43:12,233
You see, Brock, I will give you credit.

795
00:43:12,933 --> 00:43:14,833
Because I respect you immensely.

796
00:43:15,566 --> 00:43:18,100
Brock Lesnar, many times
you have stepped in this ring

797
00:43:18,166 --> 00:43:20,033
in previous WrestleManias,

798
00:43:20,100 --> 00:43:21,633
and you have imposed your will

799
00:43:21,700 --> 00:43:26,933
and conquered some of the greatest
that this business has ever seen.

800
00:43:27,500 --> 00:43:29,266
People like the great Kurt Angle.

801
00:43:29,333 --> 00:43:31,000
[crowd] What?

802
00:43:31,066 --> 00:43:32,933
People like Goldberg.

803
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:34,600
[crowd] What?

804
00:43:34,666 --> 00:43:38,066
People like… Roman Reigns.

805
00:43:38,133 --> 00:43:39,500
[crowd] What?

806
00:43:40,133 --> 00:43:42,266
But I would be remiss
if I didn't acknowledge

807
00:43:42,333 --> 00:43:45,700
perhaps, Brock, your crowning achievement,

808
00:43:46,700 --> 00:43:50,233
ending the streak of
The Undertaker at WrestleMania.

809
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,633
But, Brock, I have to remind you,
unlike those men,

810
00:43:57,700 --> 00:43:59,766
this is The Nigerian Giant.

811
00:43:59,833 --> 00:44:01,700
You cannot suplex him.

812
00:44:02,666 --> 00:44:05,133
You cannot F5 him.

813
00:44:05,700 --> 00:44:07,500
And at WrestleMania,

814
00:44:07,566 --> 00:44:11,000
you will not defeat him at WrestleMania!

-[inaudible]
-[MVP] Omos, if you would, please.

816
00:44:35,566 --> 00:44:37,066
Four hundred and ten pounds.

817
00:44:37,133 --> 00:44:38,366
Look at that!

818
00:44:39,166 --> 00:44:41,333
Over 400 pounds!

819
00:44:41,933 --> 00:44:43,966
Brock Lesnar, you're a bad man,

820
00:44:44,033 --> 00:44:46,500
but you ain't better
than this man right here.

821
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:48,600
["Next Big Thing" playing]

822
00:44:58,933 --> 00:45:03,200
[Kevin] The Beast, Brock Lesnar,
ain't hanging around for no introduction.

823
00:45:12,233 --> 00:45:15,400
MVP told us on the After The Bell podcast

824
00:45:15,466 --> 00:45:17,900
that Brock Lesnar
is a beast to you and me,

825
00:45:17,966 --> 00:45:20,600
but to Omos, he's just a man.

826
00:45:20,666 --> 00:45:22,100
Giants don't fear beasts,

827
00:45:22,166 --> 00:45:25,866
but beasts can easily be tamed by giants.

828
00:45:26,866 --> 00:45:29,666
What will Brock Lesnar
have to say about that?

829
00:45:30,533 --> 00:45:33,166
We're gonna find out at WrestleMania.

830
00:45:33,233 --> 00:45:34,500
[crowd cheering]

831
00:45:44,299 --> 00:45:46,400
Four hundred and ten pounds.

832
00:45:46,466 --> 00:45:50,433
That's the weight of Omos,
The Nigerian Giant.

833
00:45:51,233 --> 00:45:54,433
Such a unique threat
for The Beast Incarnate, Brock Lesnar.

835
00:46:10,333 --> 00:46:12,333

00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:33,666
This is my house!

00:58:07,899 --> 00:58:10,666
[Kevin] I'm not exactly a betting man,
as Ricochet comes in.

1030
00:58:10,733 --> 00:58:12,533
Now look at the athleticism of Ricochet.

1031
00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:15,866
[Corey] Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Gable countered into the ankle lock.

1032
00:58:16,500 --> 00:58:18,133
Fantastic awareness

1033
00:58:18,966 --> 00:58:21,233
by the master technician, Chad Gable,

1034
00:58:21,299 --> 00:58:23,733
who just ate two boots from Ricochet.

1035
00:58:23,799 --> 00:58:27,366
[Kevin] And now to his tag team buddy,
Braun Strowman.

1036
00:58:29,366 --> 00:58:30,433
[Corey] Oh!

1037
00:58:32,799 --> 00:58:33,966
[Kevin] Oh, man.

1038
00:58:34,033 --> 00:58:36,033
This is the only tandem
that haven't been champions

1039
00:58:36,100 --> 00:58:38,399
as tag teams in WWE amongst this group.

1040
00:58:38,466 --> 00:58:41,566
[Corey] Well, that could
very well be on the horizon

1041
00:58:41,633 --> 00:58:43,366
for Strowman and Ricochet.

1042
00:58:43,433 --> 00:58:48,066
And Montez having a little fun
at his tag partner's expense tonight.

1043
00:58:48,133 --> 00:58:49,966
[Kevin] Here comes Tez.

1044
00:58:50,033 --> 00:58:51,899
[Corey] Tez got a little flashy,
paid for it,

1045
00:58:51,966 --> 00:58:53,433
but returns the favor.

1046
00:58:54,799 --> 00:58:57,866
These steamboat-esque
arm drags, fantastic.

1047
00:58:57,933 --> 00:58:59,466
[Kevin] Gable now.

1048
00:58:59,533 --> 00:59:01,100
Up gets Montez Ford quickly.

1049
00:59:01,166 --> 00:59:03,100
Who could forget,
as cover here for Montez,

1050
00:59:03,166 --> 00:59:05,200
his heroics at the Elimination Chamber?

1051
00:59:05,266 --> 00:59:07,466
-Looked like Spider-Man.
-[Corey] Ah. Ho-ho!

1052
00:59:08,433 --> 00:59:10,799
-Montez with a vicious backhand.
-[Kevin] Oh!

1053
00:59:11,766 --> 00:59:13,899
Shoooosh!

1054
00:59:13,966 --> 00:59:15,766
[crowd booing]

1055
00:59:16,833 --> 00:59:19,433
Did Chad Gable just shoosh Braun Strowman?

1056
00:59:19,500 --> 00:59:21,866
-Oh, wait a minute.
-[Kevin] Here comes trouble.

1057
00:59:21,933 --> 00:59:24,200
[Corey] There's a lot of meat
in the ring right now.

1058
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:26,733
[inaudible conversation]

1059
00:59:28,466 --> 00:59:30,233
-[Corey] Let's not wait!
-[Kevin] Here we go!

1060
00:59:30,299 --> 00:59:31,899
It's all kicking off.

1061
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:36,133
Eight-man tag mayhem on Raw.

1062
00:59:38,533 --> 00:59:40,933
[Corey] Look at these behemoths
inside the ring.

1063
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:42,899
Ivar, Otis, and Strowman.

1064
00:59:44,700 --> 00:59:47,000
That's got to be, what,
near a half a ton of humanity

1065
00:59:47,066 --> 00:59:48,200
in the ring right now.

1066
00:59:50,466 --> 00:59:52,600
[Kevin] Devil in the eyes of Ivar,

1067
00:59:52,666 --> 00:59:53,733
goes after Strowman.

1068
00:59:53,799 --> 00:59:57,000
[Corey] And Otis just launched
Strowman out of the ring.

1069
00:59:57,066 --> 00:59:58,133
[Kevin] Wow.

1070
00:59:59,566 --> 01:00:00,766
[Corey] Look out!

1071
01:00:00,833 --> 01:00:01,966
[Kevin] Ford taking flight!

1072
01:00:02,033 --> 01:00:05,066
[Corey] Oh! Spiked by Otis.

1073
01:00:06,133 --> 01:00:09,766
Superhuman power,
the Academy takes charge.

1074
01:00:09,833 --> 01:00:11,133
[shouting indistinctly]

1075
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:15,799
[Kevin] You're watching WrestleMania Raw.

1076
01:00:15,866 --> 01:00:17,533
This is an eight-man tag.

1077
01:00:19,533 --> 01:00:21,899
Braun Strowman and Ricochet
and the Street Profits

1078
01:00:21,966 --> 01:00:24,566
against the Alpha Academy
and The Viking Raiders.

1079
01:00:24,633 --> 01:00:27,566
All these superstars
will be competing this weekend

1080
01:00:27,633 --> 01:00:30,600
in a WrestleMania Showcase
Fatal 4-Way Match.

1081
01:00:31,299 --> 01:00:32,866
[Corey] Right now, Erik doing his best

1082
01:00:32,933 --> 01:00:35,966
to twist Montez's head
clean off his shoulders.

1083
01:00:36,033 --> 01:00:38,100
Montez in desperate need of a tag.

1084
01:00:38,899 --> 01:00:39,933
[groaning]

1085
01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,399
Trying to pry apart Erik's grip.

1086
01:00:43,100 --> 01:00:45,866
These Viking Raiders are relentless,

1087
01:00:45,933 --> 01:00:48,299
as Montez Ford is finding out firsthand.

1088
01:00:48,366 --> 01:00:52,100
Here comes Ivar, shockingly agile
for a man of his size.

1089
01:00:53,266 --> 01:00:54,799
This is just nasty. Four fists.

1090
01:00:54,866 --> 01:00:57,500
I think that qualifies as clobbering.

1091
01:00:59,633 --> 01:01:01,366
[Kevin] Montez ford feeling the effects.

1092
01:01:01,933 --> 01:01:04,033
[Corey] And the great crab on the outside.

1093
01:01:05,700 --> 01:01:07,033
[Kevin] The beatdown continues.

1094
01:01:07,100 --> 01:01:08,299
Tag made.

1095
01:01:08,366 --> 01:01:10,533
Here comes Erik of The Viking Raiders.

1096
01:01:12,266 --> 01:01:14,233
[Corey] Erik and Ivar
would love nothing more…

1097
01:01:14,299 --> 01:01:15,433
[Kevin] Oh, man!

1098
01:01:15,500 --> 01:01:18,466
[Corey] …than to feast on
the grandest stage of them all.

1099
01:01:18,533 --> 01:01:20,033
Montez might be finished.

1100
01:01:20,100 --> 01:01:21,766
[Kevin] Cover. This could be over.

1101
01:01:21,833 --> 01:01:23,000
Kick out by Ford.

1102
01:01:24,866 --> 01:01:28,166
Valhalla watching on
as The Viking Raiders go to work.

1103
01:01:30,333 --> 01:01:31,866
Tag made here.

1104
01:01:31,933 --> 01:01:32,799
Otis.

1105
01:01:33,966 --> 01:01:36,700
With all the manicures and modeling,
maybe some people are guilt

1106
01:01:36,766 --> 01:01:39,166
of forgetting just how brutal Otis can be

1107
01:01:39,233 --> 01:01:40,533
inside the squared circle.

1108
01:01:40,600 --> 01:01:42,666
[Corey] Well, there's Maxxine looking on.

1109
01:01:43,266 --> 01:01:48,100
She looks at Otis
as a moldable piece of clay.

1110
01:01:49,033 --> 01:01:50,633
Look at this animal magnetism.

1111
01:01:50,700 --> 01:01:52,299
Phoenix just came to life.

1112
01:01:53,666 --> 01:01:56,166
[Kevin] You can't blame her
for having an interest in--

1113
01:01:56,233 --> 01:01:57,666
-[Corey] Whoa!
-[Kevin] Otis!

1114
01:01:57,733 --> 01:02:00,233
Maxxine. I'm here, baby.

1115
01:02:00,299 --> 01:02:02,200
Otis, come on, focus dude.

1116
01:02:02,833 --> 01:02:04,533
[Corey] Otis with a little message.

1117
01:02:05,966 --> 01:02:07,966
[Kevin] Confidence is high
with the big man.

1118
01:02:08,033 --> 01:02:09,366
[Corey] We've seen in the past

1119
01:02:09,433 --> 01:02:12,433
beauty can motivate the big man
like few other things in life.

1120
01:02:13,799 --> 01:02:14,899
[Kevin] Oh!

1121
01:02:14,966 --> 01:02:17,333
[Corey] Montez with a strong kick
to the body of Otis.

1122
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:20,766
[Kevin] Man, Otis was barely rocked.

1123
01:02:24,033 --> 01:02:26,033
[Otis] Yeah, who's the man?

1124
01:02:26,100 --> 01:02:27,833
[Kevin] Taking down Montez.

1125
01:02:27,899 --> 01:02:30,466
It's hard not to be so incredibly excited.

1126
01:02:30,533 --> 01:02:34,600
Five days from now, Hollywood,
here we come for WrestleMania.

1127
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:37,133
[Corey] Otis is rocked.

1128
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:40,666
The big man on spaghetti legs.

1129
01:02:40,733 --> 01:02:43,033
But can Montez make the tag?

1130
01:02:47,299 --> 01:02:48,799
[Kevin] Tez. Tag made.

1131
01:02:48,866 --> 01:02:51,133
[Corey] And here comes Angelo Dawkins.

1132
01:02:53,133 --> 01:02:56,366
[Kevin] Taking out Erik
and Gable for good measure.

1133
01:02:58,399 --> 01:03:01,366
[Corey] Ivar thwarts
Dawkins' momentum for the moment.

1134
01:03:01,433 --> 01:03:03,200
Fantastic agility,

1135
01:03:03,266 --> 01:03:05,133
and a corkscrew back elbow,

1136
01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,366
AD is on fire.

1137
01:03:09,366 --> 01:03:11,766
[Kevin] All over the big body of Ivar.

1138
01:03:11,833 --> 01:03:13,399
-[Gable] Hey!
-Oh. Hey.

1139
01:03:14,266 --> 01:03:15,566
[Kevin] Oh, man!

1140
01:03:15,633 --> 01:03:17,399
[Corey] What a right hand by Dawkins.

1141
01:03:17,466 --> 01:03:20,066
[Kevin] There's that athleticism
you speak of with Ivar.

1142
01:03:20,133 --> 01:03:21,399
A tag made. Here comes Erik.

1143
01:03:22,233 --> 01:03:23,666
[yells, grunts]

1144
01:03:23,733 --> 01:03:25,033
[Corey] Look at Valhalla.

1145
01:03:26,700 --> 01:03:29,133
Who has really brought the worst--

1146
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:30,766
Cover here by Erik.

1147
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:35,333
And a running Shooting Star
to break up the fall by Ricochet.

1148
01:03:36,033 --> 01:03:38,066
[Kevin] He always does
the spectacular, Ricochet,

1149
01:03:38,133 --> 01:03:39,666
and he's motoring now.

1150
01:03:40,333 --> 01:03:43,299
[Corey] Ricochet wants to keep
the momentum on his team's side

1151
01:03:43,366 --> 01:03:45,033
as we head toward WrestleMania.

1152
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:50,566
[Kevin] Gable now runs
into a vicious blow from Dawkins.

1153
01:03:54,700 --> 01:03:57,733
Are we gonna see a tag?
Yes, we are. Strowman is in.

1154
01:03:58,500 --> 01:04:01,366
[Corey] I think Phoenix
is about to be treated

1155
01:04:01,433 --> 01:04:03,733
to a trip on the Strowman Express.

1156
01:04:03,799 --> 01:04:05,833
-[Kevin] Oh, watch out.
-[Corey] Yikes!

1157
01:04:08,166 --> 01:04:11,500
Braun Strowman flattening
everything in his path.

1158
01:04:14,433 --> 01:04:16,133
[Kevin] Erik may be the next victim.

1159
01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:17,366
Strowman, though.

1160
01:04:17,433 --> 01:04:21,200
[Corey] Wow, Erik just stopped Strowman
dead in his tracks with that knee lift.

1161
01:04:21,266 --> 01:04:22,133
[yells]

1162
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:23,633
[Corey] Oh, no!

1163
01:04:28,133 --> 01:04:30,633
[Kevin] Strowman is in WrestleMania form.

1164
01:04:30,700 --> 01:04:32,633
Tag made to Ricochet.

1165
01:04:33,500 --> 01:04:36,700
[Corey] The one and only
perched on the top rope,

1166
01:04:36,766 --> 01:04:38,399
but that isn't high enough.

1167
01:04:41,733 --> 01:04:43,399
From the shoulders of the monster.

1168
01:04:43,466 --> 01:04:44,833
[Kevin] Are you kidding me?

1169
01:04:44,899 --> 01:04:45,899
[Corey] Wow!

1170
01:04:46,566 --> 01:04:49,766
And from the heavens, Montez Ford,

1171
01:04:49,833 --> 01:04:50,799
who is legal.

1172
01:04:50,866 --> 01:04:52,766
-Cover!
-[crowd] One, two, three.

1173
01:04:53,466 --> 01:04:54,899
-[bell dinging]
-[Corey] Wow!

1174
01:04:54,966 --> 01:04:56,833
["Bring The Swag" playing]

1175
01:04:56,899 --> 01:05:01,666
[announcer] Here are your winners,
the team of Ricochet, Braun Strowman

1176
01:05:01,733 --> 01:05:05,533
and the Street Profits!

1177
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:07,366
[Corey] We expected fireworks,

1178
01:05:07,433 --> 01:05:10,533
and these eight men
delivered nothing less.

1179
01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:12,200
Take a look at the closing moments.

1180
01:05:12,266 --> 01:05:14,700
It is a sight to behold.

1181
01:05:14,766 --> 01:05:19,033
Montez Ford switching directions
in mid-air,

1182
01:05:19,100 --> 01:05:21,766
never mind going halfway across the ring,

1183
01:05:21,833 --> 01:05:26,666
not to mention halfway to the ceiling
here in the Footprint Center.

1184
01:05:29,366 --> 01:05:31,399
[Kevin] Talk about momentum now,

1185
01:05:31,466 --> 01:05:34,633
ahead of WrestleMania this weekend.

1186
01:05:34,700 --> 01:05:37,299
[Corey] It will be
every team for themselves.

1187
01:05:37,366 --> 01:05:40,366
Fatal 4-Way in Los Angeles.

1188
01:05:40,433 --> 01:05:42,233
["Bring The Swag" playing]

1189
01:05:50,533 --> 01:05:53,233
[Corey] Seems like Maxxine
not too thrilled with…

1190
01:05:57,399 --> 01:05:59,133
the results of this match-up.

1191
01:06:02,166 --> 01:06:05,666
No doubt about it, though,
Dawkins and Ford, Strowman and Ricochet

1192
01:06:05,733 --> 01:06:08,399
feeling the momentum on their side.

1193
01:06:16,066 --> 01:06:20,233
I am joined by the 2023
Royal Rumble winner,

1194
01:06:20,299 --> 01:06:21,633
Cody Rhodes.

1195
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:27,033
Now, Cody, with your
WrestleMania match just days away,

1196
01:06:27,100 --> 01:06:31,033
do you think that by accepting
tonight's match against Solo Sikoa,

1197
01:06:31,100 --> 01:06:34,033
you've put yourself
in a vulnerable position?

1198
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:37,066
Hmm. I love this position.

1199
01:06:37,133 --> 01:06:38,399
Live for this position.

1200
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:43,466
I understand the question, though.
Solo Sikoa is undefeated, like myself.

1201
01:06:44,033 --> 01:06:45,500
Hasn't been pinned.

1202
01:06:45,566 --> 01:06:46,866
Hasn't been submitted.

1203
01:06:47,833 --> 01:06:49,899
If Mr. Heyman and Roman
were standing right here,

1204
01:06:49,966 --> 01:06:51,766
you'd probably need to ask them, though,

1205
01:06:52,500 --> 01:06:54,866
do they think I have a chance
tonight against Solo?

1206
01:06:54,933 --> 01:06:58,533
Do they think I even
have a chance at WrestleMania?

1207
01:06:58,600 --> 01:07:03,433
And I'm sure they would cackle maniacally
in their Samoan Goodfellas aesthetic.

1208
01:07:04,500 --> 01:07:07,033
But I'd follow up and say,

1209
01:07:07,100 --> 01:07:09,600
"Why is it so important, Mr. Heyman,"

1210
01:07:09,666 --> 01:07:13,366
that I wrestle The Enforcer
of The Bloodline?"

1211
01:07:13,433 --> 01:07:18,133
And he always has an Enforcer
six days away from the big one.

1212
01:07:19,666 --> 01:07:22,066
I think it's because they know.

1213
01:07:22,899 --> 01:07:24,466
They know the answer to this question

1214
01:07:24,533 --> 01:07:26,799
that people are just starting
to float around these days.

1215
01:07:26,866 --> 01:07:29,066
"Has Cody Rhodes earned it?"

1216
01:07:30,366 --> 01:07:31,633
Have I earned it?

1217
01:07:32,700 --> 01:07:35,399
The fire didn't start when
I came back at AT&T Stadium,

1218
01:07:35,466 --> 01:07:38,200
that would be a discredit
to where I've gone and what I've done.

1219
01:07:38,266 --> 01:07:39,733
This fire started long before that.

1220
01:07:39,799 --> 01:07:41,466
I have no intention of letting it go out.

1221
01:07:41,533 --> 01:07:44,233
Not only have I earned it,
I have lived it.

1222
01:07:45,933 --> 01:07:48,933
Tonight, Solo Sikoa finds out

1223
01:07:49,933 --> 01:07:51,200
he's not ready.

1224
01:07:52,233 --> 01:07:54,066
And at WrestleMania,

1225
01:07:55,299 --> 01:07:57,000
I defeat Roman Reigns

1226
01:07:57,066 --> 01:08:02,233
and become the undisputed
WWE Universal Champion.

1227
01:08:02,299 --> 01:08:03,733
[crowd cheering]

1228
01:08:08,200 --> 01:08:12,533
[Kevin] Can the American Nightmare
realize his dream at WrestleMania?

1229
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:14,566
Well, first, he's gonna have to get by

1230
01:08:14,633 --> 01:08:17,500
what Paul Heyman says
is a giant pothole in his way,

1231
01:08:17,566 --> 01:08:19,099
in Solo Sikoa tonight.

1232
01:08:19,166 --> 01:08:22,300
All eyes ahead to WrestleMania,
as we go Hollywood.

1233
01:08:26,933 --> 01:08:30,533
[Kevin] You're watching WrestleMania Raw
from Phoenix, Arizona.

1234
01:08:30,599 --> 01:08:34,566
We are just five days out
from the Showcase of the Immortals,

1235
01:08:34,633 --> 01:08:38,466
where the explosive
and powerful WWE superstar

1236
01:08:38,533 --> 01:08:41,966
is hoping to three-peat
on the grandest stage of them all.

1237
01:08:47,266 --> 01:08:49,166
[announcer] From Knoxville, Tennessee,

1238
01:08:50,033 --> 01:08:55,333
Bianca Belair!

1239
01:08:55,933 --> 01:08:57,466
There's nothing that Bianca can't do.

1240
01:08:57,533 --> 01:09:00,633
I remember the first day
she came to the performance center.

1241
01:09:00,700 --> 01:09:02,466
Bianca Belair. Five!

1242
01:09:03,033 --> 01:09:05,666
[Liv] As soon as we saw her,
we knew she was gonna be a star.

1243
01:09:06,566 --> 01:09:10,066
When we talk about superstars
in this business having "it,"

1244
01:09:10,133 --> 01:09:13,266
that sort of indefinable,
intangible quality,

1245
01:09:13,766 --> 01:09:15,833
Bianca exemplifies it.

1246
01:09:16,466 --> 01:09:21,633
[commentator 1] Here comes
the EST of WWE, Bianca Belair.

1247
01:09:21,700 --> 01:09:23,899
[Bianca] I'm gonna show
the whole entire world

1248
01:09:23,966 --> 01:09:27,466
that I am the strongest, the fastest,

1249
01:09:27,533 --> 01:09:30,166
the roughest, the toughest,
the quickest, the greatest.

1250
01:09:30,233 --> 01:09:33,366
I'm the B-E-S-T.

1251
01:09:33,433 --> 01:09:35,000
And that ain't up for debate.

1252
01:09:35,066 --> 01:09:36,366
[crowd cheering]

1253
01:09:36,433 --> 01:09:38,266
I can sit here for hours and days

1254
01:09:38,333 --> 01:09:41,166
and tell you how proud
and excited I am for her,

1255
01:09:41,233 --> 01:09:43,666
but the dominance has been second to none.

1256
01:09:43,733 --> 01:09:45,266
[commentator 2] K.O.D.!

1257
01:09:47,566 --> 01:09:53,866
[commentator 3] Congratulations to the new
Raw Women's Champion, Bianca Belair.

1258
01:09:56,466 --> 01:09:59,500
It's really, really special
for me to see this generation

1259
01:09:59,566 --> 01:10:02,166
have great women like Bianca Belair.

1260
01:10:02,233 --> 01:10:05,966
[woman 1] Please welcome
WWE Raw Women's Champion…

1261
01:10:06,033 --> 01:10:08,500
-[woman 2] We have Bianca Belair--
-Bianca Belair.

1262
01:10:09,133 --> 01:10:11,666
You know, they call me the EST of WWE,
which means I'm--

1263
01:10:11,733 --> 01:10:14,733
The quickest, the toughest,
the baddest, the strongest, the smartest.

1264
01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:18,000
I am here to remind you
that you can't spell WrestleMania

1265
01:10:18,066 --> 01:10:20,433
without E-S-T.

1266
01:10:21,599 --> 01:10:24,133
I am so impressed with
what Bianca has accomplished.

1267
01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:26,366
This girl has something special.

1268
01:10:27,599 --> 01:10:29,333
Bianca Belair, year-long dominance.

1269
01:10:30,166 --> 01:10:32,533
[Kevin Owens]
Asuka would be a psychological terror.

1270
01:10:33,866 --> 01:10:36,800
When they face off at WrestleMania,
you have a must-see match.

1271
01:10:41,666 --> 01:10:43,466
[Kevin] Bianca Belair wants to become

1272
01:10:43,533 --> 01:10:46,700
the longest Raw
Women's Champion of all time.

1273
01:10:46,766 --> 01:10:48,966
To do so, she's gonna have to get past

1274
01:10:49,033 --> 01:10:51,800
The Empress of Tomorrow, Asuka,

1275
01:10:51,866 --> 01:10:53,333
at WrestleMania Saturday,

1276
01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:54,833
coming up, from Hollywood.

1277
01:10:55,366 --> 01:10:57,400
Well, we know,
being the Raw Women's Champion

1278
01:10:57,466 --> 01:10:59,500
means Bianca Belair is extremely busy,

1279
01:10:59,566 --> 01:11:02,033
and you can catch Bianca
as well as Logan Paul

1280
01:11:02,099 --> 01:11:06,466
on all new episodes of Cold as Balls
with our friend, Kevin Hart.

1281
01:11:06,533 --> 01:11:08,900
They take the plunge. They are hilarious.

1282
01:11:08,966 --> 01:11:10,433
They are intimate conversations.

1283
01:11:10,500 --> 01:11:14,599
And they are available every Tuesday
on the Laugh Out Loud YouTube channel.

1284
01:11:14,666 --> 01:11:17,133
Also on the Cold as Balls Facebook page

1285
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:18,633
and Kevin Hart's Facebook page.

1286
01:11:18,700 --> 01:11:20,466
-So check it out.
-It's absolutely brilliant.

1287
01:11:20,533 --> 01:11:22,599
Austin Theory is gonna have to be ice cold

1288
01:11:22,666 --> 01:11:25,133
if he's gonna get past
the GOAT, John Cena.

1289
01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:28,933
Earlier today, the United States Champion
had a message for Cena.

1290
01:11:34,033 --> 01:11:36,500
This Saturday, at WrestleMania,

1291
01:11:36,566 --> 01:11:38,133
I lose everything.

1292
01:11:39,133 --> 01:11:40,966
According to you, John Cena.

1293
01:11:41,766 --> 01:11:43,400
But that's where you're wrong.

1294
01:11:43,466 --> 01:11:46,166
Because for some reason,
you seem to have thought

1295
01:11:46,233 --> 01:11:49,733
that you've exposed me
right here on this mic.

1296
01:11:51,066 --> 01:11:52,666
You exposed yourself.

1297
01:11:52,733 --> 01:11:54,633
You showed the entire world

1298
01:11:54,700 --> 01:11:57,500
that the one thing
that John Cena can't see

1299
01:11:57,566 --> 01:12:00,500
is the future right in front of his eyes.

1300
01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:06,300
I mean, it's like you wanted
to hit me with a reality check,

1301
01:12:06,366 --> 01:12:09,599
trying to tell me
that nobody believes in me.

1302
01:12:09,666 --> 01:12:11,599
No one, not even you.

1303
01:12:11,666 --> 01:12:14,066
Not even John Cena.

1304
01:12:14,133 --> 01:12:18,333
But, John, you're probably wondering
why I'm in this arena all alone.

1305
01:12:19,066 --> 01:12:22,133
Well, it's simple.
Because there's no difference

1306
01:12:22,200 --> 01:12:25,866
in me being in the middle of this ring
in an empty arena,

1307
01:12:25,933 --> 01:12:30,666
or me being in the middle of this ring
in a sold-out SoFi Stadium.

1308
01:12:31,366 --> 01:12:32,633
And you want to know why?

1309
01:12:32,700 --> 01:12:36,300
Because I don't do this
for the WWE Universe.

1310
01:12:36,366 --> 01:12:38,633
I don't do this for some kid growing up

1311
01:12:38,700 --> 01:12:41,166
that wants to be the next Austin Theory.

1312
01:12:41,233 --> 01:12:45,366
And I certainly I don't do this
to be the next John Cena.

1313
01:12:45,966 --> 01:12:48,800
I do this for me.

1314
01:12:48,866 --> 01:12:51,233
I do this because I had a purpose

1315
01:12:51,300 --> 01:12:54,866
way before anybody
had an opinion about me.

1316
01:12:58,800 --> 01:12:59,933
It's sad.

1317
01:13:01,300 --> 01:13:05,766
It's so sad to know that I would have
let you go down the hero.

1318
01:13:05,833 --> 01:13:07,333
But you know what you did, John?

1319
01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:09,133
You had to make this personal.

1320
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:12,333
And I already said it before,
and there's a lot of people…

1321
01:13:12,400 --> 01:13:15,166
Hell, everybody looks up to you.

1322
01:13:15,233 --> 01:13:19,333
But it's gonna be so fitting,
that you're gonna be looking up to me.

1323
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:22,099
And I'm telling you right now,
that's not a theory.

1324
01:13:22,166 --> 01:13:25,133
Because, John Cena, I am gonna make you…

1325
01:13:25,200 --> 01:13:28,300
Make you believe in me.

1326
01:13:28,366 --> 01:13:32,200
Make you believe in Austin Theory.

1327
01:13:33,366 --> 01:13:36,700
And the WWE Universe
that you love so much,

1328
01:13:36,766 --> 01:13:40,166
I'm gonna make them stop believing in you.

1329
01:13:41,366 --> 01:13:44,466
And that's all gonna happen
oh so very soon.

1330
01:13:44,533 --> 01:13:47,133
On the grandest stage of them all,

1331
01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:48,533
this Saturday,

1332
01:13:49,900 --> 01:13:52,333
at WrestleMania.

1333
01:14:05,166 --> 01:14:09,366
[Kevin] The confidence in Austin Theory
is there for all to see.

1334
01:14:09,433 --> 01:14:12,099
He says it's inevitable
that he is at this stage

1335
01:14:12,166 --> 01:14:16,300
and set to face the 16-time
World Champion in John Cena.

1336
01:14:16,366 --> 01:14:19,933
Folks, this is a match that's gonna
kick off WrestleMania Saturday.

1337
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:21,700
Be there early, get in your seats.

1338
01:14:21,766 --> 01:14:23,666
Corey, you know what LA traffic is like.

1339
01:14:23,733 --> 01:14:26,633
You want to get there and make sure
you don't miss Cena and Theory.

1340
01:14:26,700 --> 01:14:31,400
[Corey] We're packing over 75,000 members
of the WWE Universe in each night.

1341
01:14:31,466 --> 01:14:33,033
So get there early, stay late,

1342
01:14:33,099 --> 01:14:36,000
and enjoy the greatest event
in live entertainment.

1343
01:14:36,866 --> 01:14:37,800
[bell dinging]

1344
01:14:37,866 --> 01:14:39,633
[announcer] The following contest

1345
01:14:39,700 --> 01:14:46,066
is a WrestleMania Showcase
Qualifying Match!

1346
01:14:46,666 --> 01:14:48,099
Introducing first,

1347
01:14:48,166 --> 01:14:51,666
Sonya Deville!

1348
01:14:53,566 --> 01:14:55,700
Sonya Deville returns to Monday Night Raw,

1349
01:14:55,766 --> 01:14:58,333
and now a chance
to make it to WrestleMania.

1350
01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:00,300
["Hot Mess" playing]

1351
01:15:00,366 --> 01:15:02,566
[announcer] And her tag team partner,

1352
01:15:02,633 --> 01:15:05,400
Chelsea Green!

1353
01:15:05,966 --> 01:15:10,066
[Corey] Now, on paper, this duo
seems to have a bit of potential.

1354
01:15:10,133 --> 01:15:12,000
Sonya Deville's had
a great deal of success,

1355
01:15:12,066 --> 01:15:13,833
and Chelsea's well on her way.

1356
01:15:13,900 --> 01:15:18,800
But they have to get past
Michin Mia Yim and Candice LeRae.

1357
01:15:18,866 --> 01:15:21,466
One team will head to WrestleMania,

1358
01:15:21,533 --> 01:15:23,666
and we'll find out who, next.

1364
01:15:35,500 --> 01:15:38,466
[Kevin] Huge news today, folks,
broken by People magazine,

1365
01:15:38,533 --> 01:15:41,066
unveiling that Stacy Keibler
will be inducted

1366
01:15:41,133 --> 01:15:44,966
into the WWE Hall of Fame, Class of 2023.

1367
01:15:45,033 --> 01:15:48,900
Corey, you think of rivalries
with Torrie Wilson, Trish Stratus, Lita.

1368
01:15:48,966 --> 01:15:50,800
Congratulations to Stacy Keibler.

1369
01:15:52,333 --> 01:15:53,733
[Corey] A much deserved honor

1370
01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:58,266
for one of the best-known women
in WWE history.

1371
01:15:58,333 --> 01:16:02,000
[Kevin] Stacy Keibler joining
Rey Mysterio, The Great Muta

1372
01:16:02,066 --> 01:16:06,700
and the late Andy Kaufman
in the 2023 Class Hall of Fame.

1373
01:16:07,333 --> 01:16:09,166
Broken by People magazine today.

1374
01:16:10,066 --> 01:16:12,066
Make sure you do not miss a minute

1375
01:16:12,133 --> 01:16:16,200
of the celebration of the WWE
Hall of Fame induction ceremony

1376
01:16:16,266 --> 01:16:18,233
streaming on Peacock this Friday.

1377
01:16:18,300 --> 01:16:19,833
Yeah, as soon as SmackDown is over,

1378
01:16:19,900 --> 01:16:22,900
get across to Peacock
for the WWE Hall of Fame.

1379
01:16:27,300 --> 01:16:30,766
Massive match coming your way
here on Monday Night Raw.

1380
01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:34,666
You don't get a WrestleMania opportunity
too often, Corey,

1381
01:16:34,733 --> 01:16:36,433
and this is exactly what it is.

1382
01:16:36,500 --> 01:16:39,000
It's Michin and Candice LeRae,

1383
01:16:39,066 --> 01:16:42,400
taking on Sonya Deville and Chelsea Green.

1384
01:16:42,466 --> 01:16:43,933
The winner of this match

1385
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:49,533
will head to the WrestleMania Showcase
Fatal 4-way Tag Team Match.

1386
01:16:49,599 --> 01:16:51,133
Man, is that stacked with talent.

1387
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:53,066
[Corey] Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez,

1388
01:16:53,133 --> 01:16:54,666
Natalya and Shotzi,

1389
01:16:54,733 --> 01:16:57,133
-Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler…
-[bell dinging]

1390
01:16:57,200 --> 01:16:59,500
-…have all qualified.
-[Chelsea] Let's go, Sonya!

1391
01:17:00,666 --> 01:17:03,033
[Kevin] What about
Sonya Deville and Chelsea Green?

1392
01:17:03,099 --> 01:17:04,833
You wonder what the chemistry will be like

1393
01:17:04,900 --> 01:17:07,500
between the pair
talking their way into this match.

1394
01:17:08,266 --> 01:17:10,266
[Corey] Adam Pearce
just wanted to get rid of them.

1395
01:17:10,333 --> 01:17:12,000
Three, four…

1396
01:17:12,066 --> 01:17:14,800
[Corey] I can understand
that Chelsea Green has a tendency

1397
01:17:14,866 --> 01:17:17,066
to be a bit grating on the nerves.

1398
01:17:17,633 --> 01:17:20,133
Sonia Deville shares
some of those same qualities.

1399
01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:23,500
I can't necessarily blame Adam Pearce
for putting this team together,

1400
01:17:23,566 --> 01:17:26,599
but he might have inadvertently
created a pretty effective tag team.

1401
01:17:28,233 --> 01:17:29,800
[Kevin] Sonya Deville checking.

1402
01:17:29,866 --> 01:17:30,700
Ooh!

1403
01:17:30,766 --> 01:17:34,533
[Corey] Michin looking for that
breakout moment here in WWE.

1404
01:17:34,599 --> 01:17:37,333
She's flirted with success
on numerous occasions, but…

1405
01:17:38,366 --> 01:17:41,066
maybe wants that big-time
WrestleMania victory

1406
01:17:41,133 --> 01:17:44,033
to really hang her hat on
and solidify her status.

1407
01:17:44,099 --> 01:17:45,400
Oh! Nobody home.

1408
01:17:45,466 --> 01:17:46,633
Deville out of the way.

1409
01:17:48,166 --> 01:17:51,800
Candice LeRae, of course, she's got
some WrestleMania weekend plans already,

1410
01:17:51,866 --> 01:17:54,133
as her husband, Johnny Gargano,

1411
01:17:54,200 --> 01:17:57,599
will compete at NXT Stand & Deliver
Saturday morning.

1412
01:17:57,666 --> 01:18:00,733
[Kevin] Grayson Waller
in Johnny Gargano's way

1413
01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:02,400
at the Crypto.com Arena.

1414
01:18:02,933 --> 01:18:06,366
Many folks, of course,
will be headed to both Stand & Deliver

1415
01:18:06,433 --> 01:18:09,500
and WrestleMania
following at SoFi Stadium.

1416
01:18:09,566 --> 01:18:10,400
There you go.

1417
01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:16,000
[Corey] Tag is made.

1418
01:18:18,700 --> 01:18:22,200
Sonya and Chelsea working
relatively well together thus far.

1419
01:18:22,266 --> 01:18:25,833
Still early in the match-up,
an impressive tandem show of power,

1420
01:18:25,900 --> 01:18:29,900
but Mia… changing the game.

1421
01:18:29,966 --> 01:18:31,133
Double neck breaker.

1422
01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:33,500
Can Michin make the tag to Candice LeRae?

1423
01:18:33,566 --> 01:18:36,333
[Kevin] Well-played, Michin, and tag made.

1424
01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:38,666
Candice LeRae has ideas from a height.

1425
01:18:40,133 --> 01:18:42,300
[Corey] The Poison Pixie from the top,

1426
01:18:42,366 --> 01:18:44,400
takes down Green and Deville.

1427
01:18:49,866 --> 01:18:50,766
Ripcord.

1428
01:18:51,733 --> 01:18:53,500
Nobody home for Chelsea Green

1429
01:18:53,566 --> 01:18:55,933
and a big-time clothesline from Candice,

1430
01:18:56,000 --> 01:18:57,900
who's looking to pick up the pace

1431
01:18:58,766 --> 01:19:03,266
to help herself and Michin
find a path to WrestleMania.

1432
01:19:03,333 --> 01:19:05,166
What a unique senton.

1433
01:19:05,233 --> 01:19:06,333
[Kevin] Tag made.

1434
01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:07,633
[Corey] Here comes Michin.

1435
01:19:07,700 --> 01:19:09,266
[Kevin] This could be the opportunity.

1436
01:19:09,333 --> 01:19:10,766
Chelsea Green is down.

1437
01:19:10,833 --> 01:19:14,033
Can Michin and Candice LeRae
head to WrestleMania?

1438
01:19:14,099 --> 01:19:15,566
Cover for the victory.

1439
01:19:15,633 --> 01:19:17,233
Sonya Deville in the way.

1440
01:19:17,933 --> 01:19:19,966
[Corey] Sonya keeping
the opportunity alive

1441
01:19:20,033 --> 01:19:22,333
for herself and Chelsea Green.

1442
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:23,433
[Kevin] Ooh, man!

1443
01:19:23,500 --> 01:19:25,733
[Corey] Very unique offense from Deville.

1444
01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:27,200
Get out of here. What?

1445
01:19:27,733 --> 01:19:29,066
[Corey] Turn around, Sonya.

1446
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:33,033
Michin with a dropkick.

1447
01:19:35,733 --> 01:19:38,366
Chelsea looking for a pump kick,

1448
01:19:38,433 --> 01:19:40,500
but Michin out of the way.

1449
01:19:42,833 --> 01:19:45,666
Oh, Chelsea might have
been seriously injured.

1450
01:19:46,533 --> 01:19:47,966
The official went to check on her.

1451
01:19:48,033 --> 01:19:50,800
-[Kevin] Oh, man.
-[Corey] Unprettier by Green!

1452
01:19:50,866 --> 01:19:52,933
[Kevin] Nails it.
Hooks the leg for the victory.

1453
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:54,766
Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville

1454
01:19:54,833 --> 01:19:57,000
-are headed to WrestleMania.
-[bell dinging]

1455
01:19:57,566 --> 01:19:58,966
[announcer] Here are your winners,

1456
01:19:59,033 --> 01:20:04,099
the team of Sonya Deville
and Chelsea Green!

1457
01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:08,000
[Corey] KP, we're in for Karen-mania!

1458
01:20:08,066 --> 01:20:08,900
[Kevin chuckles]

1459
01:20:08,966 --> 01:20:12,400
[Corey] There's gonna be mimosas
and brunch and complaints galore.

1460
01:20:12,466 --> 01:20:14,800
And no better place
to do it than Hollywood.

1461
01:20:14,866 --> 01:20:16,533
[Kevin] A tale of two Karens,

1462
01:20:16,599 --> 01:20:20,033
and they are set to join
Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan.

1463
01:20:20,099 --> 01:20:21,966
You've got a team of Shotzi and Natalya,

1464
01:20:22,033 --> 01:20:23,766
and then, look at who it is.

1465
01:20:23,833 --> 01:20:28,566
The Baddest Woman on the Planet,
Ronda Rousey alongside Shayna Baszler.

1466
01:20:28,633 --> 01:20:33,300
What a match that promises to be
from Hollywood this weekend.

1467
01:20:33,366 --> 01:20:35,933
["The Other Side V2" playing]

1468
01:20:39,133 --> 01:20:42,700
[Kevin] How the mood just changed
here in Phoenix, Arizona.

1469
01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:03,200
[loud thud]

1470
01:21:07,433 --> 01:21:08,833
[bell dinging]

1471
01:21:08,900 --> 01:21:12,966
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1472
01:21:13,033 --> 01:21:14,300
Introducing first,

1473
01:21:14,366 --> 01:21:17,366
accompanied to the ring
by Dominik Mysterio,

1474
01:21:17,433 --> 01:21:20,933
representing The Judgment Day,

1475
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:24,933
Damian Priest!

1476
01:21:26,500 --> 01:21:28,233
[Kevin] What a match we've got coming up.

1477
01:21:28,300 --> 01:21:30,500
We all saw what happened
Friday Night SmackDown,

1478
01:21:30,566 --> 01:21:33,166
when Rey Mysterio, reluctantly in the end,

1479
01:21:33,233 --> 01:21:34,466
was pushed over the edge,

1480
01:21:34,533 --> 01:21:37,033
and he'll face his son, Dominik,
at WrestleMania.

1481
01:21:37,099 --> 01:21:39,433
But first, it's Damian Priest.

1482
01:21:46,700 --> 01:21:50,366
[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to WrestleMania.

1483
01:21:50,433 --> 01:21:51,700
[crowd cheering]

1484
01:21:55,266 --> 01:21:57,266
[commentator 1] Look at this.
Andre picks him up.

1485
01:21:57,333 --> 01:21:58,866
He slammed him!

1486
01:22:04,266 --> 01:22:05,333
[man] WrestleMania.

1487
01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:07,800
It's living up to everything
I expected it to be.

1488
01:22:12,566 --> 01:22:14,333
[commentator 2] The incredible Hulk Hogan

1489
01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:16,466
with Bad Man himself, Mr. T.

1490
01:22:17,300 --> 01:22:19,866
[commentator 3] Unbelievable pandemonium
here in The Garden.

1491
01:22:19,933 --> 01:22:20,766
[bell dinging]

1492
01:22:20,833 --> 01:22:24,266
[commentator 4] The greatest
wrestling extravaganza

1493
01:22:24,333 --> 01:22:26,533
of the century, WrestleMania.

1494
01:22:31,666 --> 01:22:33,566
Welcome back to Monday Night Raw,

1495
01:22:33,633 --> 01:22:36,166
and please welcome my guest at this time,

1496
01:22:36,233 --> 01:22:42,099
special counsel to the undisputed
WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns,

1497
01:22:42,166 --> 01:22:43,066
Paul Heyman.

1498
01:22:43,133 --> 01:22:44,933
[crowd booing]

1499
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:46,033
Now, Mr. Heyman,

1500
01:22:46,099 --> 01:22:48,133
I was hoping that I could
get your response

1501
01:22:48,200 --> 01:22:50,933
to Cody Rhodes' words
from earlier this evening.

1502
01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:51,900
Yay!

1503
01:22:52,733 --> 01:22:58,833
Though he walks through the shadow
of the Island of Relevancy,

1504
01:22:58,900 --> 01:23:03,099
Cody Rhodes fears no Tribal Chief

1505
01:23:04,366 --> 01:23:10,599
because Cody Rhodes is not ready.

1506
01:23:11,200 --> 01:23:14,800
He proved it just a few minutes ago

1507
01:23:14,866 --> 01:23:18,166
when he asked what had to be
a rhetorical question.

1508
01:23:18,233 --> 01:23:22,066
Why is it so important to fight Solo

1509
01:23:22,133 --> 01:23:26,000
six days before Cody Rhodes
is in his first WrestleMania main event?

1510
01:23:26,066 --> 01:23:30,000
It's not important, it's relevant.

1511
01:23:30,066 --> 01:23:32,233
And here's why it's so relevant,

1512
01:23:32,300 --> 01:23:36,000
because Solo is ready

1513
01:23:36,966 --> 01:23:40,133
to weaken Cody Rhodes

1514
01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:43,033
for his match against Roman Reigns.

1515
01:23:43,666 --> 01:23:46,000
Solo is not here to compete.

1516
01:23:46,066 --> 01:23:49,933
Solo is here to put a beating
on Cody Rhodes,

1517
01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:53,433
so that Cody Rhodes is not at 100%

1518
01:23:53,500 --> 01:23:56,266
against Roman Reigns this Sunday.

1519
01:23:56,333 --> 01:23:58,800
And if you're saying,
"Well, that's not very dignified"

1520
01:23:58,866 --> 01:24:01,433
of the Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns,
as champion."

1521
01:24:01,500 --> 01:24:06,066
Well, Roman Reigns is ready

1522
01:24:06,133 --> 01:24:08,000
to stoop to those depths

1523
01:24:08,066 --> 01:24:12,300
and rise to those occasions
and get any advantage that he can

1524
01:24:12,366 --> 01:24:15,533
to remain Tribal Chief
on the Island of Relevancy,

1525
01:24:15,599 --> 01:24:18,500
and that, Cathy, is the difference

1526
01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:21,500
between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes.

1527
01:24:22,133 --> 01:24:24,099
Roman Reigns came to his Wiseman,

1528
01:24:24,166 --> 01:24:26,866
and he said, "Wiseman, I'm ready".

1529
01:24:27,966 --> 01:24:32,800
And so Roman Reigns was ready
to stop being The Big Dog

1530
01:24:32,866 --> 01:24:35,066
and become The Tribal Chief.

1531
01:24:35,133 --> 01:24:39,099
But this is the same Cody Rhodes
that we've known our whole lives,

1532
01:24:39,166 --> 01:24:41,066
who will have these puppy dog eyes

1533
01:24:41,133 --> 01:24:43,266
looking at his hero, Roman Reigns,

1534
01:24:43,333 --> 01:24:46,366
across the ring
Sunday night at WrestleMania.

1535
01:24:46,433 --> 01:24:51,533
Because Cody Rhodes has never been ready.

1536
01:24:52,466 --> 01:24:54,133
Cody Rhodes was never ready

1537
01:24:54,566 --> 01:24:58,666
to fill the shoes of The American Dream,
Dusty Rhodes.

1538
01:24:58,733 --> 01:25:00,800
Cody Rhodes was never ready

1539
01:25:01,500 --> 01:25:04,466
to be the man of this generation.

1540
01:25:04,533 --> 01:25:09,800
Cody Rhodes is not ready to defeat
your Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns,

1541
01:25:09,866 --> 01:25:11,933
this Sunday at WrestleMania.

1542
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:14,200
Cody Rhodes needs to be ready

1543
01:25:14,266 --> 01:25:18,833
to take the beating that will be
inflicted upon him by Solo tonight.

1544
01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:22,966
And then Cody Rhodes will have
to take the emotional baggage

1545
01:25:23,033 --> 01:25:27,333
that Roman Reigns will dump on him
this Friday face to face at SmackDown,

1546
01:25:27,400 --> 01:25:31,866
so that when Cody Rhodes
enters the ring on Sunday night,

1547
01:25:32,566 --> 01:25:34,466
the only thing he's gonna be ready for

1548
01:25:35,166 --> 01:25:38,900
is to lose to Roman Reigns.

1549
01:25:39,966 --> 01:25:41,800
And then, Cody Rhodes,

1550
01:25:43,866 --> 01:25:47,033
I implore you, be ready,

1551
01:25:47,866 --> 01:25:51,266
for the greatest moment
of your entire existence.

1552
01:25:51,966 --> 01:25:55,733
When, in the glory of your own defeat,

1553
01:25:56,266 --> 01:26:00,166
when you've disappointed the WWE Universe,

1554
01:26:00,966 --> 01:26:04,633
be ready to acknowledge

1555
01:26:04,700 --> 01:26:08,133
your Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns,

1556
01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:11,733
in the main event this Sunday

1557
01:26:13,533 --> 01:26:16,500
of WrestleMania.

1558
01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:23,166
[Kevin] We're gonna find out
if there's any truth

1559
01:26:23,233 --> 01:26:27,000
to what Paul Heyman is saying,
that Cody Rhodes simply isn't ready.

1560
01:26:27,066 --> 01:26:30,500
In Cody's way tonight,
The Enforcer of The Bloodline,

1561
01:26:30,566 --> 01:26:33,733
maybe this is an ill-advised match
for Cody Rhodes,

1562
01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:35,866
days from the biggest night of his life.

1563
01:26:35,933 --> 01:26:37,566
It's coming up tonight on Raw.

1564
01:26:41,066 --> 01:26:44,133
[Corey] We're currently joined
by Judgment Day and Dirty Dom.

[crowd booing]

1566
01:26:52,900 --> 01:26:57,333
It takes a real lowlife
to hit your own child.

1567
01:27:00,066 --> 01:27:02,400
I thought you were a deadbeat then.

1568
01:27:03,066 --> 01:27:06,233
Now you really are a deadbeat.

1570
01:27:08,033 --> 01:27:11,333
Everyone saw the video
of you attacking me.

1571
01:27:14,533 --> 01:27:17,333
And after Damian beats you tonight,

1572
01:27:17,400 --> 01:27:20,333
and I humiliate you at WrestleMania,

1573
01:27:22,700 --> 01:27:28,099
everyone here will really know
what a failure of a father you really are.

1574

[crowd booing]

1575
01:27:29,666 --> 01:27:31,333
Someone roll the footage.

1576
01:27:35,200 --> 01:27:36,933
You're gonna give me what I want?

1577
01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:39,833
Huh?

1578
01:27:39,900 --> 01:27:43,000
Come on. Or are you gonna run away?

1579
01:27:46,400 --> 01:27:47,833
Hey, everybody.

1580
01:27:47,900 --> 01:27:51,333
I have my mom and my sister
here with us tonight.

What you gonna do about it?

1584
01:28:00,400 --> 01:28:01,533
Dominik.

1585
01:28:02,933 --> 01:28:05,633
Mom, shut up!

[crowd cheering]

1587
01:28:14,233 --> 01:28:15,833
You pushed me to do this.

1588
01:28:15,900 --> 01:28:17,433
I didn't want to hit you.

1589
01:28:17,500 --> 01:28:20,233
You don't disrespect
your mother like that.

1590
01:28:20,300 --> 01:28:24,833
You wanted to fight?
I'll see you at WrestleMania, son.

You suck! You suck!

1594
01:29:00,566 --> 01:29:04,166
What kind of father hits his own son?

1595
01:29:04,233 --> 01:29:08,366
What kind of mother
sits there and does nothing?

1596
01:29:11,933 --> 01:29:14,233
The silence was deafening.

1597
01:29:14,733 --> 01:29:17,933
I should have told her
to shut up a long time ago.

1599

[crowd chanting] You suck! You suck!

1600
01:29:32,599 --> 01:29:36,300
Dad, I've never said this out loud.

1601
01:29:39,099 --> 01:29:41,166
But I wish Eddie was my real father.

[crowd exclaims]

1603
01:29:44,700 --> 01:29:47,400
And you never existed.

1604
01:29:48,800 --> 01:29:54,433
Because my entire family
is a disgrace to the Mysterio name.

1605
01:29:54,500 --> 01:29:58,866
And the Mysterio name
will be mine at WrestleMania.

[Kevin] Cannot wait for Stand & Deliver
Saturday afternoon,

1618
01:30:46,066 --> 01:30:47,866
but tonight, it's Monday Night Raw.

1619
01:30:47,933 --> 01:30:49,733
A packed house in Phoenix, Arizona,

as an impassioned Rey Mysterio

1621
01:30:51,833 --> 01:30:54,166
up against Damian Priest
of The Judgment Day.

1622
01:30:54,233 --> 01:30:57,266
His estranged son, Dominik,
watching on from ringside.

1623
01:30:57,333 --> 01:31:00,566
[Corey] What a roller coaster of emotions
Rey Mysterio has been on

1624
01:31:00,633 --> 01:31:01,900
over the past several months.

1625
01:31:02,666 --> 01:31:05,666
About to receive one of the greatest
honors of his entire career

1626
01:31:05,733 --> 01:31:08,166
as he's inducted
into the WWE Hall of Fame,

1627
01:31:08,233 --> 01:31:11,633
while simultaneously
watching his relationship with his son

1628
01:31:11,700 --> 01:31:15,099
disintegrate before our very eyes
and in front of the entire world.

1629
01:31:16,566 --> 01:31:18,466
[Kevin] Mysterio now
taking down Damian Priest.

1630
01:31:18,533 --> 01:31:20,433
And, Corey, he didn't want to be here.

1631
01:31:20,500 --> 01:31:23,566
He's been saying it for months now,
Rey Mysterio, "I won't hit you, son."

1632
01:31:23,633 --> 01:31:25,833
But ultimately, his wife,
Angie, applauding,

1633
01:31:25,900 --> 01:31:27,900
as Rey stood up to his son, Dominik.

Moonsault finds the mark.

Damian Priest kicking out.

1636
01:31:35,733 --> 01:31:37,800
[Corey] I assure you, Dominik and Damian

1637
01:31:37,866 --> 01:31:40,599
have had a few discussions
about what Damian's role is

1638
01:31:40,666 --> 01:31:42,133
tonight on Monday Night Raw.

1639
01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:45,800
Much like Solo Sikoa
is looking to soften up, if not destroy,

1640
01:31:45,866 --> 01:31:47,733
The American Nightmare later tonight,

1641
01:31:47,800 --> 01:31:50,433
I guarantee you, Priest is thinking about

1642
01:31:50,500 --> 01:31:53,400
putting a beating on Rey Mysterio,

1643
01:31:53,466 --> 01:31:56,400
softening up Rey before WrestleMania.

1644
01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:00,099
[Kevin] Damian Priest, he may end it here.

1645
01:32:00,166 --> 01:32:03,233
Grabs the leg,
and Rey Mysterio is still alive.

1646
01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:10,166
[Corey] Take a look at the power
of the punishment of The Judgment Day.

1647
01:32:11,500 --> 01:32:14,966
Flatliner drives Rey face first
in the middle of the ring.

1648
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:17,566
But Mysterio survives.

1649
01:32:17,633 --> 01:32:19,000
But now look at this.

1650
01:32:19,733 --> 01:32:22,300
Damian Priest stalking Mysterio.

1651
01:32:24,466 --> 01:32:25,833
[Kevin] Priest now at pace.

1652
01:32:25,900 --> 01:32:27,133
Ducked by Rey.

1653
01:32:28,700 --> 01:32:31,200
Savvy move by the future Hall of Famer.

1654
01:32:31,833 --> 01:32:35,266
[Corey] That is not where
Priest wants to be right now.

1655
01:32:36,533 --> 01:32:37,966
[Kevin] Oh, here we go.

1656
01:32:38,033 --> 01:32:39,500
[Corey] Time to dial it up.

1657
01:32:40,000 --> 01:32:43,133
-Oh, baby!
-[Kevin] Oh, wow!

1658
01:32:43,766 --> 01:32:46,233
Priest to put away Mysterio,

1659
01:32:46,300 --> 01:32:47,366
who kicks out.

1660
01:32:47,433 --> 01:32:49,366
-Rey's kicked out.
-[Corey] My God.

1661
01:32:49,433 --> 01:32:52,200
Rey Mysterio deserves
a Hall of Fame induction

1662
01:32:52,266 --> 01:32:53,966
just for surviving this.

1663
01:32:55,333 --> 01:32:57,599
That clothesline would make JBL proud.

1664
01:32:57,666 --> 01:32:58,966
My God.

1665
01:32:59,033 --> 01:33:01,400
[Kevin] Thought he was set for the 619.

1666
01:33:02,800 --> 01:33:04,900
Priest flattens Rey.

1667
01:33:04,966 --> 01:33:07,433
And this is where you wonder
is this a wise strategy from Rey,

1668
01:33:07,500 --> 01:33:09,099
days before WrestleMania,

1669
01:33:09,166 --> 01:33:12,000
to be taking on someone
of the caliber of Damian Priest.

1670
01:33:12,066 --> 01:33:14,099
[Corey] In a word, no,
it's not a wise strategy,

1671
01:33:14,166 --> 01:33:16,000
because Rey needs
to be focused on Dominik.

1672
01:33:16,066 --> 01:33:19,333
While most of the WWE Universe,
myself excluded,

1673
01:33:19,400 --> 01:33:23,500
might find Dominik a little irritable,
a little irritating,

1674
01:33:24,866 --> 01:33:26,233
this is not a smart decision.

1675
01:33:26,300 --> 01:33:29,200
Because Dominik is
a rapidly developing superstar.

1676
01:33:29,266 --> 01:33:31,933
He gets better every time
we see him in the ring.

1677
01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:33,066
Oh!

1678
01:33:35,099 --> 01:33:36,933
[Kevin] And Rey's still got it.

1679
01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:39,666
Dominik may be improving,
but look at his dad go!

1680
01:33:40,433 --> 01:33:42,400
Here's another opportunity.

1681
01:33:43,433 --> 01:33:45,966
Rey, 619!

Oh, it's Dominik.

on his deadbeat dad.

This is a preview of what we're gonna get

1688
01:34:08,033 --> 01:34:10,966
in Los Angeles at SoFi Stadium.

1689
01:34:11,033 --> 01:34:17,599
The catharsis Dominik will feel
will be a mutually-shared experience.

1690
01:34:19,966 --> 01:34:21,200
[Kevin] This is hard to watch.

1691

Running off The Judgment Day,

01:35:06,233 --> 01:35:08,800
[Corey] Phoenix letting
the vitriol rain down

1703
01:35:08,866 --> 01:35:11,633
on Dominik Mysterio and Damian Priest.

1704
01:35:14,633 --> 01:35:15,833
What?

1705
01:35:16,533 --> 01:35:19,700
Dom could very well play spoiler

1706
01:35:19,766 --> 01:35:22,766
on what should be
one of the greatest weekends

1707
01:35:22,833 --> 01:35:25,333
of his father's career,
as he enters the Hall of Fame.

1708
01:35:25,400 --> 01:35:26,633
That was difficult to watch.

1709
01:35:26,700 --> 01:35:29,466
So for a future Hall of Famer
in Rey Mysterio,

1710
01:35:29,533 --> 01:35:33,099
to the first-ever this Friday night
on SmackDown.

1711
01:35:33,166 --> 01:35:37,266
We are set to see the ninth annual
Andre the Giant Battle Royal.

1712
01:35:40,533 --> 01:35:44,466
[announcer]
The Eighth Wonder of the World,

1713
01:35:44,533 --> 01:35:47,233
Andre the Giant!

1714
01:35:47,300 --> 01:35:48,933
[narrator] Larger than life.

1715
01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:51,599
[commentator] Look at the size
of The Giant.

1716
01:35:51,666 --> 01:35:53,300
[narrator] Unmatched in power,

1717
01:35:53,366 --> 01:35:56,900
Andre the Giant
towered over the competition

1718
01:35:56,966 --> 01:36:00,500
with a nearly 15-year undefeated streak.

1719
01:36:00,566 --> 01:36:03,500
Everywhere he went,
people turned out to see him.

1720
01:36:03,566 --> 01:36:05,300
There was just
something magical about him.

1721
01:36:05,366 --> 01:36:09,566
[narrator] The first-ever inductee
into the WWE Hall of Fame,

1722
01:36:09,633 --> 01:36:12,866
Andre holds the record
for most Battle Royal victories

1723
01:36:12,933 --> 01:36:15,366
in WWE history,

1724
01:36:15,433 --> 01:36:19,566
including a dominating performance
at WrestleMania II.

1725
01:36:20,300 --> 01:36:26,066
And in 2014, WWE established
the Andre The Giant Battle Royal,

1726
01:36:26,133 --> 01:36:30,400
a yearly tradition that brings
the same awe and excitement

1727
01:36:30,466 --> 01:36:33,300
that Andre himself brought to the ring.

1728
01:36:33,866 --> 01:36:37,099
This Friday, who will make
their mark in history

1729
01:36:37,166 --> 01:36:41,400
as the winner of the 2023
Andre the Giant Battle Royal?

1730
01:36:47,966 --> 01:36:49,833
Andre the Giant Battle Royal.

1731
01:36:49,900 --> 01:36:50,933
-There it is.
-Pay day.

1732
01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:53,200
-Money!
-Battle Royal, Friday. NXT, Saturday.

1733
01:36:53,266 --> 01:36:55,466
WrestleMania weekend's
gonna be crazy, guys.

1734
01:36:55,533 --> 01:36:56,599
-Make the weekend.
-Wild.

1735
01:36:56,666 --> 01:36:58,400
-Johnny, lead us to the dojo.
-This way?

1736
01:36:58,466 --> 01:37:01,233
I don't know where it is,
but we'll get some training going.

1737
01:37:01,300 --> 01:37:02,466
Oh, my God.

1738
01:37:03,333 --> 01:37:04,766
Oh, my God!

1739
01:37:04,833 --> 01:37:06,366
Boogs, what is it?

1740
01:37:06,433 --> 01:37:07,900
I… I'm in it.

1741
01:37:08,566 --> 01:37:10,033
I'm in the Battle Royal.

1742
01:37:10,099 --> 01:37:11,366
All right, great.

1743
01:37:11,433 --> 01:37:12,433
[laughs]

1744
01:37:12,500 --> 01:37:14,833
Look at that. So am I.

1745
01:37:14,900 --> 01:37:16,466
I got a great feeling about this thing.

1746
01:37:16,533 --> 01:37:18,800
Boogs, on Friday,
you better be taking notes

1747
01:37:18,866 --> 01:37:21,900
because I am a lock to win this thing.

1748
01:37:25,200 --> 01:37:26,099
Okay.

1749
01:37:27,833 --> 01:37:29,133
A bit weird with the glove.

1750
01:37:29,599 --> 01:37:30,966
You didn't have to do that.

1751
01:37:32,700 --> 01:37:33,800
Didn't see you there.

1752
01:37:33,866 --> 01:37:36,200
But I'll see you Friday at the thing…

1753
01:37:37,266 --> 01:37:38,400
The Battle Royal.

1754
01:37:43,400 --> 01:37:45,166
[crowd cheering]

1755
01:37:47,700 --> 01:37:49,233
You're locked to win it?

1756
01:37:50,666 --> 01:37:52,466
Yeah, that's what I said, yeah.

1757
01:37:55,566 --> 01:37:57,000
I'll see you Friday, man.

1758
01:37:58,033 --> 01:37:59,433
[mouthing]

1759
01:37:59,866 --> 01:38:01,733
See, this is gonna be super.

1760
01:38:03,500 --> 01:38:05,966
["Sacred" playing]

1761
01:38:17,433 --> 01:38:18,366
[bell dinging]

1762
01:38:18,433 --> 01:38:22,066
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1763
01:38:22,133 --> 01:38:23,200
Introducing first,

1764
01:38:23,266 --> 01:38:27,066
accompanied by
Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci,

1765
01:38:27,133 --> 01:38:31,700
he is The Intercontinental Champion,

1766
01:38:32,400 --> 01:38:35,400
Gunther!

1767
01:38:36,066 --> 01:38:38,033
[Corey] What a treat we have.

1768
01:38:38,099 --> 01:38:39,733
It's Monday Night Raw,

1769
01:38:39,800 --> 01:38:43,933
but the Intercontinental Champion
is in action, live.

1770
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:45,866
Gunther next.

1771
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:03,333
[Kevin] Don't miss the new movie
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves,

1772
01:39:03,400 --> 01:39:05,466
only in theaters, Friday.

1773
01:39:06,099 --> 01:39:09,200
Now, folks, since KO
and Sami Zayn have made up,

1774
01:39:09,266 --> 01:39:12,599
it's been one emotional embrace
after another.

1775
01:39:12,666 --> 01:39:15,700
And on Friday Night SmackDown,
that may have come at a cost.

1776
01:39:17,766 --> 01:39:18,933
But it's not…

1777
01:39:19,000 --> 01:39:20,266
It's not KO-Mania this year.

1778
01:39:20,333 --> 01:39:22,700
It's about what's on
the front of the shirt.

1779
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:27,000
[crowd cheering]

1780
01:39:28,633 --> 01:39:31,233
WrestleZaynia, baby!

1781
01:39:31,300 --> 01:39:32,766
[crowd cheering]

1782
01:39:32,833 --> 01:39:33,666
Bring it in.

1783
01:39:36,900 --> 01:39:39,000
[Corey] The celebration
will be short-lived,

1784
01:39:39,066 --> 01:39:41,466
as The Usos would hit the scene

1785
01:39:41,533 --> 01:39:44,500
and lay waste to their
WrestleMania challengers.

1786
01:39:46,233 --> 01:39:49,866
[Kevin] KO and Sami potentially
taking their eyes off the prize,

1787
01:39:49,933 --> 01:39:51,333
ahead of WrestleMania.

1788
01:39:52,700 --> 01:39:55,033
["Done With That" playing]

1789
01:40:00,500 --> 01:40:02,900
I'd say it's been a pretty emotional year.

1790
01:40:03,700 --> 01:40:05,466
After everything
that's happened between us

1791
01:40:05,533 --> 01:40:07,400
and The Usos and everything else, it's…

1792
01:40:08,433 --> 01:40:10,833
We're now finding ourselves
less than a week away

1793
01:40:10,900 --> 01:40:14,500
from the biggest
Tag Team Championship Match of all time.

1794
01:40:15,566 --> 01:40:17,833
And a huge part of why
this is so emotional for us,

1795
01:40:17,900 --> 01:40:20,333
is also the fact that
it's happening in Los Angeles.

1796
01:40:20,400 --> 01:40:23,300
Because there's a big part of the story
there that not everybody knows.

1797
01:40:23,366 --> 01:40:25,533
Yeah, everybody knows
Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens

1798
01:40:25,599 --> 01:40:28,300
started in Montreal from nothing. Nothing.

1799
01:40:28,966 --> 01:40:33,000
But Los Angeles is the city
where we first got our big break.

1800
01:40:33,066 --> 01:40:34,433
That is where we made our names.

1801
01:40:34,500 --> 01:40:37,099
That is where we truly became a team.

1802
01:40:37,166 --> 01:40:40,666
And now, after all these years,
after everything that's happened with us,

1803
01:40:41,533 --> 01:40:42,799
it all comes full circle,

1804
01:40:42,866 --> 01:40:46,633
and we walk back
into Los Angeles as a team.

1805
01:40:48,266 --> 01:40:52,000
You know, because every fight
we've ever been in,

1806
01:40:52,066 --> 01:40:53,700
every fight we've… we've had together,

1807
01:40:53,766 --> 01:40:55,466
every fight we've had
alongside each other,

1808
01:40:55,533 --> 01:40:58,266
it's been about making our careers
get to the next level.

1809
01:40:58,333 --> 01:41:01,133
Going forward, going upwards,
getting bigger and better things.

1810
01:41:01,200 --> 01:41:03,000
But this weekend,
it doesn't get any better,

1811
01:41:03,066 --> 01:41:04,400
it doesn't get any bigger.

1812
01:41:05,200 --> 01:41:07,799
The biggest tag team title match
of all time. You're right.

1813
01:41:08,566 --> 01:41:10,166
It's us against The Usos,

1814
01:41:10,233 --> 01:41:12,866
the longest-reigning
Tag Team Champions of all time,

1815
01:41:12,933 --> 01:41:15,000
the best team in WWE.

1816
01:41:15,633 --> 01:41:17,599
And that was true up until last week,

1817
01:41:17,666 --> 01:41:18,700
because this weekend,

1818
01:41:18,766 --> 01:41:20,700
we get to show the Usos and The Bloodline,

1819
01:41:20,766 --> 01:41:22,833
we get to show the world
what we can do as a team.

1820
01:41:22,900 --> 01:41:24,599
And we're gonna do it in Los Angeles,

1821
01:41:24,666 --> 01:41:27,466
in the city where we got
our first big break.

1822
01:41:27,533 --> 01:41:29,500
And in that city, we are gonna accomplish

1823
01:41:29,566 --> 01:41:31,566
the biggest thing we can achieve together

1824
01:41:31,633 --> 01:41:35,400
when we become WWE
undisputed Tag Team Champions,

1825
01:41:35,466 --> 01:41:37,433
and we're doing it at WrestleMania!

1826
01:41:37,500 --> 01:41:38,966
[crowd cheering]

1827
01:41:41,233 --> 01:41:43,666
[Kevin] It's coming your way,
WrestleMania.

1828
01:41:43,733 --> 01:41:45,166
And KO said it perfectly.

1829
01:41:45,233 --> 01:41:49,366
The biggest tag team match
of all time for the undisputed titles.

1830
01:41:49,433 --> 01:41:52,633
The record reign
of The Usos is on the line

1831
01:41:52,700 --> 01:41:57,533
against the newly-formed,
the buddies, KO and Sami Zayn.

1832
01:42:00,866 --> 01:42:03,799
[Corey] And a sold-out
Footprint Center here in Phoenix

1833
01:42:03,866 --> 01:42:08,900
being graced by the presence
of the Intercontinental Champion, Gunther,

1834
01:42:08,966 --> 01:42:13,433
who has WrestleMania plans
of his own this coming weekend

1835
01:42:13,500 --> 01:42:18,933
when the Ring General will defend
the coveted Intercontinental Championship

1836
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:22,133
against both The Celtic Warrior, Sheamus,

1837
01:42:22,200 --> 01:42:25,133
and The Scottish Warrior, Drew McIntyre

1838
01:42:25,200 --> 01:42:27,000
in a Triple Threat Match.

1839
01:42:27,066 --> 01:42:29,400
[Kevin] Gunther wanted
either McIntyre or Sheamus.

1840
01:42:29,466 --> 01:42:30,933
You can understand why he's livid.

1841
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:33,900
[announcer]
…residing in Hollywood, Florida,

1842
01:42:33,966 --> 01:42:36,033
weighing 218 pounds,

1843
01:42:36,099 --> 01:42:39,866
Dolph Ziggler!

1844
01:42:39,933 --> 01:42:41,933
[Corey] This is an opportunity
for a superstar

1845
01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:43,566
the caliber of Dolph Ziggler.

1846
01:42:43,633 --> 01:42:46,966
Dolph would love to play spoiler tonight.

1847
01:42:47,033 --> 01:42:49,599
If Dolph can interrupt…
interfere with Gunther's

1848
01:42:49,666 --> 01:42:53,166
Intercontinental Championship plans
prior to WrestleMania.

1849
01:42:53,233 --> 01:42:55,233
That's what Dolph lives for these days.

1850
01:42:55,299 --> 01:42:57,733
Just ruining other people's days
because he can.

1851
01:43:00,066 --> 01:43:02,433
[Kevin] Dolph Ziggler,
two-time World Champion,

1852
01:43:02,500 --> 01:43:04,900
15 championships in WWE.

1853
01:43:04,966 --> 01:43:08,200
But he faces the longest
Intercontinental reign

1854
01:43:08,266 --> 01:43:10,133
in the 21st century in Gunther.

1855
01:43:10,200 --> 01:43:12,833
Two hundred and ninety days and counting.

1856
01:43:12,900 --> 01:43:14,700
But Ziggler's off to a hot start.

1857
01:43:14,766 --> 01:43:16,866
[Corey] Dropkick off the opening bell.

1858
01:43:17,433 --> 01:43:19,533
Gunther spiked with a DDT.

1859
01:43:20,633 --> 01:43:22,866
Dolph could catch the Champion
off guard here tonight.

1860
01:43:24,166 --> 01:43:25,200
Come on!

1861
01:43:25,266 --> 01:43:27,799
[Corey] Dolph knows what it means
to be Champion.

1862
01:43:27,866 --> 01:43:31,700
Dolph knows what it means to compete
on the grandest stage of them all,

1863
01:43:31,766 --> 01:43:36,366
and now Dolph knows what it feels like
to be chopped by a iron skillet.

1864
01:43:38,200 --> 01:43:41,200
The massive hands of
the Intercontinental Champion, Gunther,

1865
01:43:41,266 --> 01:43:44,033
who views the ring as sacred ground.

1866
01:43:45,933 --> 01:43:47,099
[Kevin] Oh, man!

1867
01:43:47,166 --> 01:43:49,866
Gunther's just taking it out
on Dolph Ziggler right now.

1868
01:43:50,333 --> 01:43:53,566
[Corey] The Champion
brutalizing Dolph Ziggler.

1869
01:43:53,633 --> 01:43:54,833
Look at this.

1870
01:43:55,566 --> 01:43:59,533
Ziggler just being overwhelmed
by the Austrian.

1871
01:44:00,266 --> 01:44:03,733
[Kevin] Dolph Ziggler is in a bad way.
The Ring General stands tall.

1872
01:44:09,433 --> 01:44:11,466
This is WrestleMania Raw.

1873
01:44:11,533 --> 01:44:13,533
We're headed to Hollywood this weekend.

1874
01:44:13,599 --> 01:44:18,299
13,568 WWE fans in Phoenix, Arizona,

1875
01:44:18,366 --> 01:44:20,333
as Dolph Ziggler
starts to fight back here,

1876
01:44:20,400 --> 01:44:21,933
against The Ring General, Gunther.

1877
01:44:24,200 --> 01:44:26,366
[Corey] Gunther looking
to answer with a clothesline,

1878
01:44:26,433 --> 01:44:27,366
Ziggler out of the way.

1879
01:44:27,933 --> 01:44:29,166
Dolph with a Famouser!

1880
01:44:29,933 --> 01:44:31,666
[Kevin] Is Gunther rocked?
Can Dolph do it?

1881
01:44:31,733 --> 01:44:33,166
Hooks the leg for the victory.

1882
01:44:33,233 --> 01:44:34,666
Gunter kicking out.

1883
01:44:34,733 --> 01:44:36,666
[Corey] It could be disastrous
for the confidence

1884
01:44:36,733 --> 01:44:39,366
of the Intercontinental Champion
this close to WrestleMania,

1885
01:44:39,433 --> 01:44:43,233
where Gunther will defend against
both Sheamus and Drew McIntyre

1886
01:44:43,299 --> 01:44:44,266
in a Triple Threat Match.

1887
01:44:44,333 --> 01:44:47,266
[Kevin] Where there's no
champion's advantage in that match.

1888
01:44:47,333 --> 01:44:49,733
[Corey] Dolph from behind,
Looking for the zigzag.

1889
01:44:49,799 --> 01:44:53,233
[Kevin] And that's why Gunther
is absolutely furious with WWE official.

1890
01:44:53,299 --> 01:44:54,233
Wow!

1891
01:44:55,766 --> 01:44:59,633
[Corey] Picked out of mid-air with a chop

1892
01:44:59,700 --> 01:45:02,066
from the Ring General.

1893
01:45:02,133 --> 01:45:04,299
Thunderous German suplex.

1894
01:45:06,099 --> 01:45:09,299
Things are about to go
from bad to worse for The Show Off.

1895
01:45:14,033 --> 01:45:15,500
[Kevin] Oh, man!

1896
01:45:15,566 --> 01:45:18,266
The Ring General
is feasting on Dolph Ziggler.

1897
01:45:24,066 --> 01:45:27,299
Making a statement
to Sheamus and Drew McIntyre.

1898
01:45:27,366 --> 01:45:29,500
[Corey] That is exactly
what Gunther is doing.

1899
01:45:33,500 --> 01:45:37,433
He's muscling up… a lifeless Ziggler.

1900
01:45:38,099 --> 01:45:40,133
[Kevin] Cover, to put away Ziggler.

1901
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:42,099
[bell dinging]

1902
01:45:42,700 --> 01:45:44,400
[Corey] The Last Symphony.

1903
01:45:44,466 --> 01:45:46,366
[announcer] Here is your winner,

1904
01:45:46,433 --> 01:45:50,366
the Intercontinental Champion,

1905
01:45:50,433 --> 01:45:54,133
Gunther!

1906
01:45:54,733 --> 01:45:56,599
[Corey] The Intercontinental Champion

1907
01:45:56,666 --> 01:46:00,200
continues to build momentum
toward WrestleMania,

1908
01:46:00,266 --> 01:46:02,833
and you've got to
feel bad for Dolph Ziggler.

1909
01:46:02,900 --> 01:46:03,833
Watch this.

1910
01:46:03,900 --> 01:46:05,366
[Kevin] Oh, man!

1911
01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:08,500
[Corey] It'll collapse
a regular person's sternum.

1912
01:46:08,566 --> 01:46:10,066
Tremendous impact.

1913
01:46:10,700 --> 01:46:14,099
Gunther with a powerbomb
in the center of the ring.

1914
01:46:15,900 --> 01:46:19,333
And once you hear The Last Symphony,

1915
01:46:19,400 --> 01:46:21,366
the only place to go is home.

1916
01:46:25,466 --> 01:46:26,799
Sheamus!

1917
01:46:29,000 --> 01:46:30,933
Drew McIntyre!

1918
01:46:32,833 --> 01:46:36,200
Despite the disgrace

1919
01:46:37,833 --> 01:46:42,366
of being forced to defend
my Intercontinental Championship

1920
01:46:42,433 --> 01:46:44,266
against both of you.

1921
01:46:49,866 --> 01:46:51,066
But have a look.

Because this is the fate that awaits you…

1923
01:46:58,299 --> 01:46:59,966
at WrestleMania!

1924
01:47:04,333 --> 01:47:06,533
[Corey] Ominous, yet succinct.

1925
01:47:07,933 --> 01:47:10,833
Gunther prepared for battle

1926
01:47:10,900 --> 01:47:14,033
as he defends his
Intercontinental Championship

1927
01:47:14,099 --> 01:47:16,133
against Drew McIntyre

1928
01:47:16,200 --> 01:47:18,666

on Friday Night SmackDown.

1990

of trying to get under the skin

1991
01:51:22,000 --> 01:51:25,366
and into the head
of a usually stoic Solo Sikoa.

Smart move by Cody, using his quickness.

1996
01:51:37,266 --> 01:51:39,833
But Solo answers with a big right hand.

1997
01:51:41,633 --> 01:51:44,233
And Cody is a smart human being.

1998
01:51:44,299 --> 01:51:48,500
Cody has to realize the risk involved
just by accepting this match-up.

1999
01:51:48,566 --> 01:51:49,766
Maybe Cody is hoping to--

2002

just went right out of the damn window.

2003
01:51:57,333 --> 01:51:59,200
[Kevin] You're looking
at the insurance policy

2004
01:51:59,266 --> 01:52:01,599
for Roman Reigns, Solo Sikoa,

2005
01:52:01,666 --> 01:52:02,900

[Corey] My goodness,
I still haven't gotten over

2010
01:52:11,400 --> 01:52:12,366

2011
01:52:12,433 --> 01:52:14,333

[Corey] We heard The Wiseman, Paul Heyman,
earlier tonight talk about it.

We know what Solo's mission
is here tonight.

2016
01:52:26,299 --> 01:52:29,099
It's to eliminate the Cody Rhodes problem,

2017
01:52:29,166 --> 01:52:31,500
to inflict as much punishment and damage

2018
01:52:31,566 --> 01:52:34,933
on the challenger
to Roman's throne as possible.

2019
01:52:35,000 --> 01:52:37,066
That is why The Enforcer is here tonight.

2020

[Kevin] We got to admire
Cody Rhodes stepping up.

into the head of Roman Reigns

2022
01:52:41,366 --> 01:52:44,099
in the way Cody Rhodes did
on Friday night?

2023

Roman back down from a verbal altercation

2024

last week on Monday Night Raw.

2025

now taking control of this match-up.

2030
01:53:07,366 --> 01:53:09,866
rolling to the outside,
looking to compose himself.

2031
01:53:09,933 --> 01:53:11,299
But Solo…

2032
01:53:12,500 --> 01:53:14,166
-[Kevin] At pace.

[Corey] And now Solo's skull being
dribbled off of our announce desk,

2039
01:53:36,400 --> 01:53:39,566
and Cody Rhodes
is unloading on The Enforcer.

[Kevin] This is the passion,
the resilience.

2041
01:53:42,333 --> 01:53:44,599
[Corey] You can see
the fire in Cody's eyes.

2042
01:53:46,133 --> 01:53:48,266
Rhodes is a man on a mission.

2043
01:53:48,333 --> 01:53:49,299
[Kevin] Watch out!

2044
01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:50,933
[Corey] But Solo…

2045
01:53:51,000 --> 01:53:52,166
Oh, no!

2046
01:53:52,233 --> 01:53:53,266
[Kevin] Oh, man!

2047
01:53:54,933 --> 01:53:57,533
Driving Cody into the desk.

2048
01:53:59,633 --> 01:54:03,066
[Kevin] How much damage is Solo
doing to Cody before WrestleMania?

2049
01:54:03,133 --> 01:54:05,700
As much as possible.

2050
01:54:09,500 --> 01:54:10,700
Solo…

2051
01:54:12,500 --> 01:54:13,400
[man] Do it again!

2052
01:54:13,466 --> 01:54:15,200
[Kevin] How is Cody Rhodes gonna recover?

2053
01:54:15,266 --> 01:54:16,766
[Corey] I don't know if he is.

2054
01:54:23,166 --> 01:54:25,900
[Kevin] A huge crowd here tonight,
witnessing a main event.

2055
01:54:25,966 --> 01:54:28,799
Cody Rhodes hanging on here
against Solo Sikoa,

2056
01:54:28,866 --> 01:54:31,500
who's been totally dominant
during the commercial break.

2057
01:54:31,566 --> 01:54:33,733
[Corey] Right now,
Sikoa got a vice-like grip

2058
01:54:33,799 --> 01:54:35,799
on the trapezius muscle of Cody Rhodes,

2059
01:54:35,866 --> 01:54:38,866
an agonizing position
for the American Nightmare

2060
01:54:38,933 --> 01:54:40,799
who has made his way
back to a vertical base,

2061
01:54:40,866 --> 01:54:43,200
but Cody still needs to break the grip.

2062
01:54:45,066 --> 01:54:49,133
[Kevin] Telling Solo Sikoa he's not ready
has clearly angered The Enforcer,

2063
01:54:49,200 --> 01:54:51,833
the Street Champion,
but here comes Cody Rhodes.

2064
01:54:51,900 --> 01:54:53,866
[Corey] But don't forget, Cody is cagey.

2065
01:54:53,933 --> 01:54:57,200
Cody is a world-traveled
veteran of this game.

2066
01:54:57,266 --> 01:55:00,400
Cody Rhodes… I don't know
if you know this about his father.

2067
01:55:00,466 --> 01:55:02,466
…happened to have
one of the greatest minds

2068
01:55:02,533 --> 01:55:04,599
this business has ever known.

2069
01:55:04,666 --> 01:55:07,533
Cody, mentally,
is as tough as just about anyone

2070
01:55:07,599 --> 01:55:09,200
who's ever laced up a pair of boots.

2071
01:55:09,266 --> 01:55:10,900
[Kevin] But is he wilting here?

2072
01:55:11,599 --> 01:55:14,733
Under the pressure
and the brutality of Solo Sikoa.

2073
01:55:17,733 --> 01:55:18,766
Hey! Come on, no.

2074
01:55:18,833 --> 01:55:21,533
[Corey] Just think of the risk involved
by stepping into the ring,

2075
01:55:21,599 --> 01:55:25,966
being in the vicinity of Solo Sikoa
delivering a Samoan Spike.

2076
01:55:26,566 --> 01:55:30,599
Maybe Cody rolls into WrestleMania
with a bruised windpipe.

2077
01:55:30,666 --> 01:55:34,166
You can't win a main event
at WrestleMania less than 100%,

2078
01:55:34,233 --> 01:55:36,900
particularly when you're facing
The Tribal Chief,

2079
01:55:36,966 --> 01:55:40,000
the most dominant champion
in recent history.

2080
01:55:40,066 --> 01:55:42,900
[Kevin] But we know
how heroic Cody Rhodes is.

2081
01:55:42,966 --> 01:55:46,599
Think back to last year,
that injured pectoral.

2082
01:55:46,666 --> 01:55:48,166
We know what he's capable of.

2083
01:55:52,166 --> 01:55:55,366
[Corey] And I know Roman Reigns
knows what Cody Rhodes is capable of,

2084
01:55:55,433 --> 01:55:58,400
which is one of the reasons,
and there are many,

2085
01:55:58,466 --> 01:56:02,299
why Solo Sikoa is in the ring
with the American Nightmare right now,

2086
01:56:02,366 --> 01:56:04,266
tonight, on the Road to WrestleMania.

2087
01:56:06,433 --> 01:56:07,466
[Kevin] Oh, man!

2088
01:56:07,533 --> 01:56:09,466
[Corey] Great display of power by Rhodes.

2089
01:56:11,766 --> 01:56:13,599
[Kevin] If Cody gets through this,

2090
01:56:13,666 --> 01:56:16,666
a meeting with Roman Reigns
Friday night on SmackDown.

2091
01:56:16,733 --> 01:56:19,333
[Corey] A headbutt from Solo
right on the chin.

2092
01:56:21,966 --> 01:56:23,533
[Kevin] Cody had him read.

2093
01:56:27,000 --> 01:56:28,633
[Corey] Rhodes up and over.

2094
01:56:28,700 --> 01:56:29,900
Out of harm's way.

2095
01:56:30,700 --> 01:56:32,966
-[Kevin] Oh!
-[Corey] Snap powerslam!

2096
01:56:37,900 --> 01:56:39,766
Cody now tapping into the reserves.

2097
01:56:39,833 --> 01:56:43,233
Oh! Trying to take this to the next gear.

2098
01:56:43,666 --> 01:56:44,833
Disaster Kick connects,

2099
01:56:44,900 --> 01:56:48,799
but Solo still in this battle,
only down to one knee.

2100
01:56:49,700 --> 01:56:52,299
[Kevin] Rhodes looking
for the Cody Cutter!

2101
01:56:52,366 --> 01:56:54,633
Where does this man find this energy?

2102
01:56:54,700 --> 01:56:56,333
This resolve?

2103
01:56:56,966 --> 01:57:00,066
[Corey] I can assure you,
Rhodes is feeding off of the energy

2104
01:57:00,133 --> 01:57:02,066
from the WWE Universe,

2105
01:57:03,166 --> 01:57:06,799
just as he will this weekend
in front of 75,000-plus.

2106
01:57:08,799 --> 01:57:12,133
SoFi Stadium, Los Angeles, California.

2107
01:57:12,200 --> 01:57:13,700
Rhodes, Reigns.

2108
01:57:18,299 --> 01:57:21,866
Cody looking at delivering
the Cross Rhodes.

2109
01:57:21,933 --> 01:57:23,566
This will put Solo away.

2110
01:57:24,099 --> 01:57:25,466
There it is!

2111
01:57:28,166 --> 01:57:30,000
[Kevin] Can he finish off Solo?

2112
01:57:31,599 --> 01:57:34,099
And make that statement
ahead of Friday Night SmackDown?

2113
01:57:38,033 --> 01:57:39,866
[Corey] Cody hooking the leg.

2114
01:57:39,933 --> 01:57:42,099
[Kevin] Cover now for Cody Rhodes.

2115
01:57:42,666 --> 01:57:47,366
[Corey] And Sikoa had the wherewithal
to get his foot on the bottom rope.

2116
01:57:48,033 --> 01:57:48,933
Brilliant.

2117
01:57:49,766 --> 01:57:55,033
As we look again at Cody
soaring into a Cody Cutter.

2118
01:57:56,299 --> 01:57:58,099
That was extremely effective,

2119
01:57:58,166 --> 01:58:02,200
but could not finish
the task of disposing of Solo.

2120
01:58:02,266 --> 01:58:03,833
[Kevin] That was poetry in motion,

2121
01:58:03,900 --> 01:58:06,833
but Solo Sikoa
is still alive in this match.

2122
01:58:10,566 --> 01:58:13,599
A rare sight, as The Street Champion
takes a beating.

2123
01:58:14,133 --> 01:58:17,633
[Corey] Rhodes, momentarily
making eye contact with The Wiseman.

2124
01:58:18,366 --> 01:58:19,700
Is this what you wanted?

2125
01:58:21,200 --> 01:58:23,599
[Corey] Cody asking Heyman,
"Is this what you wanted?"

2126
01:58:24,333 --> 01:58:25,900
Moonsault!

2127
01:58:25,966 --> 01:58:27,233
Nobody home!

2128
01:58:32,166 --> 01:58:33,733
[Kevin] Scouted by Solo.

2129
01:58:35,299 --> 01:58:38,366
[Corey] And Cody let Heyman
get under his skin.

2130
01:58:40,466 --> 01:58:42,799
And Cody Rhodes
has to be prepared for that.

2131
01:58:42,866 --> 01:58:45,666
He cannot allow that at WrestleMania,

2132
01:58:45,733 --> 01:58:47,400
because Heyman will do his best.

2133
01:58:47,466 --> 01:58:49,299
Solo will surely be lurking.

2134
01:58:49,366 --> 01:58:52,099
Jimmy and Jey Uso and the entire Bloodline

2135
01:58:52,166 --> 01:58:56,166
all know that The Tribal Chief
is under fire.

2136
01:58:56,933 --> 01:58:59,333
[Kevin] Heyman, using Cody's words
against him earlier,

2137
01:58:59,400 --> 01:59:02,166
saying he's not ready for Roman Reigns.

2138
01:59:03,799 --> 01:59:06,266
[Corey] Solo lining up the Samoan Spike!

2139
01:59:06,799 --> 01:59:08,466
[Kevin] Ducked by Cody.

2140
01:59:08,533 --> 01:59:09,733
Here we go!

2141
01:59:10,366 --> 01:59:12,500
