174
00:11:06,483 --> 00:11:07,316
Fine.

175
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:09,616
What does that mean?

176
00:11:10,166 --> 00:11:11,333
You will figure it out.

177
00:11:14,116 --> 00:11:14,949
What the heck?

178
00:11:15,050 --> 00:11:17,666
[Tessitore] How about
that migraine-inducing whoof

179
00:11:17,750 --> 00:11:20,983
on Rhea Ripley,
as she will now be paired later tonight

180
00:11:21,133 --> 00:11:22,933
with Tiffy Time, Tiffany Stratton.

181
00:11:23,133 --> 00:11:26,300
Meanwhile, these two, always cohesive,
always in sync.

182
00:11:26,366 --> 00:11:29,016
The champs. Bianca and Jade…
Oh, look who's here.

183
00:11:29,550 --> 00:11:31,683
Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson.

184
00:11:31,916 --> 00:11:35,766
Remember, on Friday night,
they took a shot at the champs

185
00:11:36,166 --> 00:11:38,833
before their bid was denied.

186
00:11:39,133 --> 00:11:44,516
But Lash and Jakara showing up ringside
for this championship match,

187
00:11:45,066 --> 00:11:47,550
Of course, the challenge
for Bianca and Jade.

188
00:11:47,633 --> 00:11:48,533
It's a big one.

189
00:11:48,650 --> 00:11:51,066
["Still The Baddest" playing]

190
00:11:56,833 --> 00:12:02,566
[Tessitore] Damage CTRL has arrived,
and they arrived with tons of confidence.

191
00:12:02,850 --> 00:12:06,383
Coming off of critical wins
on their steps to the ladder

192
00:12:06,466 --> 00:12:08,150
to get this title opportunity.

193
00:12:08,350 --> 00:12:10,366
And for Iyo Sky individually.

194
00:12:10,766 --> 00:12:14,266
Remember the big recent win
against Bianca Belair

195
00:12:14,316 --> 00:12:16,883
who waves her in,
says, "Come on, let's do this."

196
00:12:17,066 --> 00:12:18,133
Title's on the line.

197
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,550
[Barrett] Of course,
being Kairi Sane with Asuka,

198
00:12:21,633 --> 00:12:24,083
this will be the first time
that he Iyo Sky

199
00:12:24,133 --> 00:12:27,433
factors in to that equation
of winning tag gold here

200
00:12:27,516 --> 00:12:31,916
in WWE, exclusively a singles competitor.

201
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,083
-Historically--
-[crosstalk]

202
00:12:34,166 --> 00:12:37,266
Boy, oh, boy, does she want to get
her hands the tag gold

203
00:12:37,333 --> 00:12:41,916
held by Belair and Cargill.
This is your big opportunity.

204
00:12:43,849 --> 00:12:45,433
We are ready for it, Wade.

205
00:12:45,516 --> 00:12:48,633
And here's the sensational Samantha Irvin.

206
00:12:49,833 --> 00:12:50,800
[bell dings]

207
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,533
[Irvin] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall,

208
00:12:53,616 --> 00:13:00,550
and it is for the WWE Women's
Tag Team Championship.

209
00:13:04,383 --> 00:13:10,050
Introducing the challengers,
representing Damage CTRL.

210
00:13:10,383 --> 00:13:11,566
The team of

211
00:13:11,699 --> 00:13:17,666
Kairi Sane and Iyo Sky.

212
00:13:18,183 --> 00:13:19,583
[crowd cheers]

213
00:13:24,466 --> 00:13:26,099
And their opponents,

214
00:13:26,783 --> 00:13:32,949
they are the WWE Women's
Tag Team Champions.

215
00:13:33,250 --> 00:13:37,766
The team of Jade Cargill

216
00:13:37,949 --> 00:13:43,900
and Bianca Belair.

217
00:13:45,883 --> 00:13:47,583
[Tessitore] Bianca Belair
and Jade Cargill,

218
00:13:47,633 --> 00:13:52,583
weighed a 12-1 mark
since they have come together as a team.

219
00:13:52,650 --> 00:13:54,250
[Barrett] Yeah, I'll tell you this, Joe.

220
00:13:54,316 --> 00:13:58,016
There's understandably always
a certain swagger to Belair and Cargill.

221
00:13:58,099 --> 00:14:00,083
They have all the physical
gifts in the world.

222
00:14:00,166 --> 00:14:03,016
They have the resumes
to back up those gifts.

223
00:14:03,099 --> 00:14:06,449
But the truth is, I think
the feathers of Bianca Belair

224
00:14:06,533 --> 00:14:11,250
were ruffled several weeks ago when
Iyo Sky pulled off that singles victory

225
00:14:11,983 --> 00:14:14,800
against The EST right here on the Raw.

226
00:14:14,866 --> 00:14:17,816
So Belair especially,
has a point to prove tonight.

227
00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:19,483
That was an excellent match.

228
00:14:19,566 --> 00:14:22,550
Unbelievable performance
by both participants,

229
00:14:22,599 --> 00:14:25,633
but clearly Iyo Sky,
a high watermark there.

230
00:14:25,849 --> 00:14:26,983
[Barrett] No doubt about it.

231
00:14:27,033 --> 00:14:29,150
But this, of course,
being the tag division,

232
00:14:29,199 --> 00:14:31,650
there is a certain chemistry involved.

233
00:14:31,699 --> 00:14:34,383
As opposed to singles competition.

234
00:14:34,566 --> 00:14:39,833
Belair and Cargill really are the proven
commodity in that department here.

235
00:14:40,266 --> 00:14:42,883
[Tessitore] To the size and power
of Jade Cargill.

236
00:14:42,933 --> 00:14:46,599
[Barrett] Jade just grows inexperienced
week by week.

237
00:14:46,666 --> 00:14:50,433
But now the vet's in there.
The leader of the team, Bianca Belair.

238
00:14:52,199 --> 00:14:53,866
[Tessitore] Look at the teamwork here.

239
00:14:56,483 --> 00:14:59,883
-Quick to cover
-[Barrett] And right off the bat, Joe,

240
00:14:59,933 --> 00:15:02,650
we see the strategy of Belair and Cargill.

241
00:15:02,733 --> 00:15:03,683
It's the power game.

242
00:15:03,766 --> 00:15:07,000
Clearly, Iyo Sky and Kairi
saying will have an advantage

243
00:15:07,083 --> 00:15:08,666
when it comes to aerial combat.

244
00:15:08,866 --> 00:15:14,033
And the truth is Belair just needs
to beat Sky down, keep her grounded.

245
00:15:14,116 --> 00:15:17,816
Keep The Genius of the Sky
anywhere but the sky.

246
00:15:21,483 --> 00:15:24,466
[Tessitore] Bianca,
from the deadlift position,

247
00:15:24,599 --> 00:15:26,033
looking for the vertical suplex,

248
00:15:26,250 --> 00:15:27,116
Iyo, able to counter.

249
00:15:27,683 --> 00:15:30,633
[Barrett] Tag there that perhaps
Belair didn't quite see at first.

250
00:15:31,583 --> 00:15:35,483
[Tessitore] Look at how fast
the slide down and then…

251
00:15:36,683 --> 00:15:38,983
quickly getting on top was Kairi Sane,

252
00:15:40,466 --> 00:15:43,349
[Barrett] Massive contrast
in the skill sets

253
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,466
of these two top-tag teams.

254
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,583
[Tessitore] Doubling up
the basement dropkick

255
00:15:49,099 --> 00:15:52,550
[Barrett] Right now it's the speed
and maneuverability of the challengers

256
00:15:53,166 --> 00:15:55,133
that has taken control of this match.

257
00:15:57,216 --> 00:15:59,466
But Cargill
looking to do something about that.

258
00:16:00,466 --> 00:16:03,366
[Tessitore] Kairi, sitting crossbody
out onto the floor.

259
00:16:03,683 --> 00:16:05,183
[bellowing]

260
00:16:05,250 --> 00:16:09,933
[Tessitore] And Damage CTRL in control
with the tag titles on the line.

261
00:16:10,183 --> 00:16:11,383
Look at her fly.

262
00:16:15,849 --> 00:16:20,083
Ah, the covenant gold. The Women's Tag
Championships up for grabs

263
00:16:20,166 --> 00:16:23,150
as Iyo Sky has had
Bianca Belair locked up…

264
00:16:23,349 --> 00:16:26,433
Oh, The EST with a bridging pin attempt
out of that.

265
00:16:26,683 --> 00:16:28,666
With her athleticism, it's just unreal.

266
00:16:29,916 --> 00:16:35,316
[Barrett] Uppercut straight to the jaw
of Belair and Belair is wobbled.

267
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:36,983
You don't see that too often.

268
00:16:37,916 --> 00:16:40,583
[Tessitore] Big start from Iyo Sky,

269
00:16:42,099 --> 00:16:44,733
And we know Iyo Sky can hurt Belair.

270
00:16:44,783 --> 00:16:46,983
We know Iyo Sky can pin Belair.

271
00:16:47,366 --> 00:16:49,666
Several weeks ago she did exactly that.

272
00:16:49,716 --> 00:16:52,283
She does it here,
we've got new tag champs.

273
00:16:55,166 --> 00:16:57,533
Sky just seems to have
an answer for everything.

274
00:16:57,583 --> 00:17:00,466
Belair goes in there, but not that.

275
00:17:01,150 --> 00:17:05,416
[Tessitore] Bianca Belair,
finding something deep inside of her.

276
00:17:06,099 --> 00:17:08,149
Now that Jade wants that tag.

277
00:17:08,250 --> 00:17:10,450
[Barrett] A fresh Jade Cargill
needs that tag…

278
00:17:10,500 --> 00:17:11,566
Watch this.

279
00:17:11,666 --> 00:17:14,933
It's like a truck colliding
with The Genius of the Sky.

280
00:17:14,983 --> 00:17:19,300
Both women hurt, and both women
needing the tag to their fresh partners.

281
00:17:19,383 --> 00:17:22,800
[Tessitore] Here comes Kairi Sane.
And here comes Jade.

282
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:25,816
Oh, spinning elbow.

283
00:17:28,966 --> 00:17:29,950
Chop after chop.

284
00:17:30,850 --> 00:17:32,533
[Barrett] Cargill was just outmaneuvered.

285
00:17:32,616 --> 00:17:35,083
But back to the power base of Cargill.

286
00:17:35,166 --> 00:17:36,766
That's the equalizer for her.

287
00:17:37,666 --> 00:17:39,133
Sane able to wrap up.

288
00:17:39,566 --> 00:17:42,916
[Barrett] Rocking a choke hold here
and she cinched it in deep.

289
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,366
[Tessitore] And Jade Cargill went down
to one knee for a moment.

290
00:17:46,533 --> 00:17:47,816
Powers her way out of it.

291
00:17:49,266 --> 00:17:51,733
[Barrett] Just as Cargill
looked to be fading,

292
00:17:52,233 --> 00:17:56,383
it seems, Kairi Sane simply is
too quick for Cargill, thus far.

293
00:17:56,433 --> 00:17:59,016
[Tessitore] This time,
she catches the cross body.

294
00:17:59,066 --> 00:18:00,516
[Barrett] Huge backbreaker.

295
00:18:02,916 --> 00:18:06,116
Kairi Sane,
getting the stuffing knocked out of her.

296
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,816
It's hard to move that fast
when you simply can't breathe.

297
00:18:13,333 --> 00:18:15,850
[Tessitore] Powerbomb delivered
from Jade Cargill.

298
00:18:16,066 --> 00:18:20,100
And the cover, and coming in was Iyo Sky.

299
00:18:20,350 --> 00:18:22,149
Championship on the line.

300
00:18:23,683 --> 00:18:27,550
[Barrett] The championship opportunity
was slipping away for Damage CTRL

301
00:18:27,633 --> 00:18:29,566
until Iyo Sky's intervention.

302
00:18:30,100 --> 00:18:32,500
But it might be academic at this point.

303
00:18:32,583 --> 00:18:35,783
The champ's in full control
and looking to put this one away.

304
00:18:36,550 --> 00:18:39,899
Kairi Sane, getting out of dodge
just in the nick of time.

305
00:18:39,950 --> 00:18:41,716
That is spitfire for the champs.

306
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,550
[Tessitore] And look at Jade's reaction
once she realizes

307
00:18:44,616 --> 00:18:45,983
that the target wasn't there.

308
00:18:46,666 --> 00:18:48,933
[Barrett] Well, Jade was
completely blinded by the fact

309
00:18:48,983 --> 00:18:51,000
that she was picking up Belair,

310
00:18:51,033 --> 00:18:53,766
had no idea that Kairi Sane had moved.

311
00:18:55,116 --> 00:18:57,433
[Tessitore] Genius of the Sky
missile dropkick

312
00:18:57,483 --> 00:18:59,733
springboards it and then picks up.

313
00:19:00,133 --> 00:19:04,016
And now all of a sudden Damage CTRL
finds momentum.

314
00:19:04,066 --> 00:19:06,416
[Barrett] With Jade Cargill
nowhere to be seen…

315
00:19:08,866 --> 00:19:10,766
[Tessitore] Right on top with that elbow.

316
00:19:13,100 --> 00:19:16,300
Hooks the leg to take the titles.

317
00:19:16,733 --> 00:19:18,050
Kick out, Bianca.

318
00:19:18,500 --> 00:19:19,916
[Barrett] Oh, man. Check this out.

319
00:19:19,950 --> 00:19:24,083
This is like a modified elbow
from Kairi Sane.

320
00:19:24,700 --> 00:19:27,700
Pop up from The Genius of the Sky.

321
00:19:27,750 --> 00:19:30,983
And now in the drop zone is Bianca Belair.

322
00:19:34,399 --> 00:19:36,783
[Tessitore] And the over, the moonsault
comes up empty.

323
00:19:36,866 --> 00:19:38,766
[Barrett] Well, thankfully for Belair,

324
00:19:38,833 --> 00:19:41,350
with Jade Cargill
pulling her out of trouble

325
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,133
and now the powerhouse Cargill.

326
00:19:44,983 --> 00:19:48,083
And out, Kairi Sane with a little help
from her friend.

327
00:19:48,483 --> 00:19:52,450
[Tessitore] I mean Jade and Bianca…
And look at this Lash and Jakara.

328
00:19:52,700 --> 00:19:56,116
They just lost to them on Friday night,
and they're still barking and jawing.

329
00:19:56,316 --> 00:19:59,216
Iyo, springboard moonsault to the floor.

330
00:20:02,266 --> 00:20:03,433
And Iyo Sky…

331
00:20:06,533 --> 00:20:09,850
And now she gets the attention
of Lash and Jakara.

332
00:20:09,899 --> 00:20:13,283
Sane, this isn't your moment.
Just sit down and watch… Oh!

333
00:20:13,850 --> 00:20:17,133
[Barrett] A cheap shot
to the jaw of Iyo Sky.

334
00:20:17,166 --> 00:20:19,866
I don't think Bianca Belair saw
that that had happened.

335
00:20:19,916 --> 00:20:24,350
Iyo Sky damaged ringside
and now Bianca Belair.

336
00:20:24,850 --> 00:20:26,616
[Barrett] The referee
didn't see it, either.

337
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,966
The vertical suplex
after she just ate that.

338
00:20:31,050 --> 00:20:34,333
And could it be KOD?

339
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,966
-Bianca…
-[crowd] One, two…

340
00:20:38,016 --> 00:20:39,250
[Tessitore] To retain…

341
00:20:39,316 --> 00:20:40,550
-Yes!
-[bell dings]

342
00:20:42,366 --> 00:20:44,300
[Irvin] Here are your winners.

343
00:20:44,366 --> 00:20:46,883
And still

344
00:20:46,933 --> 00:20:51,500
The WWE Women's Tag Team Champions,

345
00:20:51,633 --> 00:20:58,333
Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair.

346
00:20:59,149 --> 00:21:02,700
[Barrett] Well, that was
a hell of a championship contest.

347
00:21:03,066 --> 00:21:05,300
Just as it was coming to a beat,

348
00:21:05,550 --> 00:21:10,116
Iyo Sky mouthing off at Jakara Jackson
and Lash Legend

349
00:21:10,183 --> 00:21:15,316
from NXT that shot to the jaw though
was all it took for Bianca Belair

350
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:20,233
to be lock in the KOD
and connected everyone else down

351
00:21:20,316 --> 00:21:23,583
Successful retention for the tag champs.

352
00:21:24,316 --> 00:21:26,283
But my, oh my,

353
00:21:26,483 --> 00:21:29,016
there is trouble brewing
between Damage CTRL

354
00:21:29,066 --> 00:21:31,800
and Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson.

355
00:21:33,216 --> 00:21:34,816
[Legend] Watch out next time.

356
00:21:37,366 --> 00:21:39,166
-Oh, here he is now.
-Oh, there you are, Adam.

357
00:21:39,233 --> 00:21:40,250
You wanted to talk to us?

358
00:21:40,316 --> 00:21:42,033
Actually, I wanted to talk to both of you.

359
00:21:42,100 --> 00:21:43,300
Yup. So come on, spit it out.

360
00:21:43,366 --> 00:21:45,283
When is my rematch with Damian?

361
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,083
This is not about Damien, guys.

362
00:21:47,149 --> 00:21:48,899
Whoa, I don't think
you're understanding me.

363
00:21:48,966 --> 00:21:51,366
When is my rematch with Damien?

364
00:21:51,416 --> 00:21:52,450
Because I want it.

365
00:21:52,733 --> 00:21:54,899
Finn, maybe you're not understanding me.

366
00:21:55,416 --> 00:21:57,733
This has nothing to do
with Damien and everything to do

367
00:21:57,783 --> 00:22:00,500
with the obligations that you two have
to the world tag tiles.

368
00:22:00,533 --> 00:22:02,133
-Obligations?
-Yeah, like defending them,

369
00:22:02,183 --> 00:22:04,383
-Yes. We defended these last month.
-That's the problem.

370
00:22:04,433 --> 00:22:07,483
I gave you all the time in the world
to deal with your Damien Priest problem.

371
00:22:07,533 --> 00:22:09,750
And it's still not resolved
and it needs to be resolved.

372
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,450
It is resolved. And now that it is,
I'm just letting you both know

373
00:22:12,500 --> 00:22:15,600
that I'm setting up a tournament
to find challengers for these.

374
00:22:17,433 --> 00:22:18,666
Does it look like we care?

375
00:22:20,916 --> 00:22:21,866
You better.

376
00:22:23,316 --> 00:22:24,266
[exclaiming scornfully]

377
00:22:24,333 --> 00:22:26,716
You know, I'm really
starting to dislike that guy, you know?

378
00:22:26,766 --> 00:22:27,716
He's real cocky.

379
00:22:28,649 --> 00:22:31,083
Hi. So how'd it go?
When's the rematch with Damien?

380
00:22:32,116 --> 00:22:33,066
Not good.

381
00:22:35,283 --> 00:22:36,283
Where's he going?

382
00:22:36,583 --> 00:22:39,266
-It didn't go good. No rematch.
-[Morgan sighs]

383
00:22:39,350 --> 00:22:42,000
Well, at least we can all focus
on keeping our championships.

384
00:22:42,666 --> 00:22:44,216
-True, true.
-Yeah.

385
00:22:44,766 --> 00:22:48,733
Oh, yeah, and I'd like you guys all
to meet Raquel Rodriguez.

386
00:22:52,133 --> 00:22:53,050
Are you okay?

387
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,566
-Uh--
-Come on.

388
00:22:54,816 --> 00:22:55,816
-Yeah.
-Say hello.

389
00:23:06,716 --> 00:23:08,600
Webster's Dictionary defines "greatness"

390
00:23:08,683 --> 00:23:12,149
as the quality or state
of being excellent in size.

391
00:23:13,333 --> 00:23:14,283
Skill,

392
00:23:15,233 --> 00:23:16,083
achievement,

393
00:23:17,266 --> 00:23:18,266
or power.

394
00:23:19,666 --> 00:23:22,116
Hey, Merriam Webster, you idiot.

395
00:23:22,166 --> 00:23:24,966
How about next time
just look at a photo of American Made.

396
00:23:25,033 --> 00:23:25,950
[laughing]

397
00:23:26,316 --> 00:23:27,950
This is the land of opportunity.

398
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,383
So everyone in that locker room
now has the opportunity.

399
00:23:30,433 --> 00:23:34,916
To get their teeth kicked in
by the greatest athletes in the world.

400
00:23:37,766 --> 00:23:41,716
We're sick and tired
of you entitled degenerates.

401
00:23:41,899 --> 00:23:43,583
Just looking for handouts.

402
00:23:45,683 --> 00:23:47,066
[Gable] This country needs a hero.

403
00:23:48,783 --> 00:23:51,533
All of you in the WWE Universe,
need a hero,

404
00:23:52,066 --> 00:23:53,750
and it's my pleasure to let you guys know.

405
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,816
We're going to be that for you.

406
00:23:56,716 --> 00:23:57,916
So sit back and watch.

407
00:23:58,366 --> 00:24:00,899
We'll put the team on our back
and show the world

408
00:24:00,950 --> 00:24:03,883
what it means to be American Made.

409
00:24:06,366 --> 00:24:07,633
So sit back and watch.

410
00:24:13,533 --> 00:24:15,066
[Breakker] Everybody wants to know…

411
00:24:16,316 --> 00:24:17,216
why?

412
00:24:17,266 --> 00:24:19,383
Why did I turn my back

413
00:24:19,983 --> 00:24:21,316
on Jey Uso?

414
00:24:23,750 --> 00:24:25,516
It's just really not all that complicated.

415
00:24:27,399 --> 00:24:28,366
See, Jey,

416
00:24:29,683 --> 00:24:33,383
you lucked into the biggest lottery
of your entire life a few weeks ago

417
00:24:33,433 --> 00:24:35,783
when you beat me
for the Intercontinental Championship.

418
00:24:37,466 --> 00:24:38,316
So what do I do?

419
00:24:38,366 --> 00:24:39,383
Out of respect,

420
00:24:40,966 --> 00:24:44,516
I march down to the ring,
I shake your hand,

421
00:24:45,966 --> 00:24:49,550
and tell you "Congratulations,"
out of respect.

422
00:24:50,783 --> 00:24:51,866
And what do you do?

423
00:24:52,300 --> 00:24:56,899
You throw it back in my face
as if I'm not gonna see it.

424
00:24:58,833 --> 00:25:02,233
Not once did you say
that you respected me.

425
00:25:02,750 --> 00:25:04,100
Not one time

426
00:25:04,183 --> 00:25:07,000
did you say that you
respected me as a champion

427
00:25:07,083 --> 00:25:10,416
and that maybe one day,
you would be the caliber champion

428
00:25:10,733 --> 00:25:13,983
that I am, which we all know you won't.

429
00:25:14,516 --> 00:25:16,333
See, we're not the same Jey.

430
00:25:17,366 --> 00:25:20,083
We're not a couple of second,
third-generation Superstars

431
00:25:20,166 --> 00:25:21,866
carrying on our family's legacy.

432
00:25:22,416 --> 00:25:23,750
Because I'm doing this on my own.

433
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,516
I don't need my family's help.

434
00:25:25,916 --> 00:25:27,149
I don't need the name.

435
00:25:28,050 --> 00:25:29,733
I don't need them here,

436
00:25:29,766 --> 00:25:32,649
because one day
when I surpass them, in success,

437
00:25:33,233 --> 00:25:35,699
they can give me the stamp of approval.

438
00:25:36,199 --> 00:25:40,633
The same amount of respect
that I have for them, they'll have for me.

439
00:25:43,966 --> 00:25:44,883
And not like you.

440
00:25:46,300 --> 00:25:49,899
You've been sucking off your family's
legacy for the past 14 years.

441
00:25:49,983 --> 00:25:51,949
And then finally, when your cousin

442
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,966
is on top of the mountain,
you all of a sudden decide

443
00:25:55,016 --> 00:25:59,183
that you want to do it on your own now.
You want to get fed to.

444
00:25:59,683 --> 00:26:01,449
You want to do it on your own, Jey?

445
00:26:01,566 --> 00:26:02,783
You want to do it on your own?

446
00:26:02,883 --> 00:26:06,016
Well, you're gonna take
this ass-kicking on your own too.

447
00:26:09,233 --> 00:26:14,383
Because I'm coming back
for my Intercontinental Championship.

448
00:26:17,283 --> 00:26:18,933
And the beautiful thing is, Jey,

449
00:26:20,783 --> 00:26:22,016
your family…

450
00:26:24,750 --> 00:26:26,083
cannot save you

451
00:26:28,416 --> 00:26:29,449
from me.

452
00:26:34,750 --> 00:26:35,883
["Greatness" playing]

453
00:26:35,983 --> 00:26:38,683
And when Bron Breakker
sets his mind to something,

454
00:26:38,733 --> 00:26:41,416
historically speaking, he doesn't fail.

455
00:26:41,449 --> 00:26:43,416
This could be a big problem for Jey Uso.

456
00:26:43,483 --> 00:26:46,699
Yeah. Bron Breakker could be in line
quick turnaround title rematch.

457
00:26:50,366 --> 00:26:52,083
You know, Bronson,
this might surprise you,

458
00:26:52,366 --> 00:26:53,899
but I appreciate your time.

459
00:26:54,233 --> 00:26:56,866
And the reason I called for this meeting
is real simple.

460
00:26:57,183 --> 00:27:00,899
-I need to make sure that you and I--
-Hey, hey, let's just talk business.

461
00:27:02,966 --> 00:27:04,449
You know, I'm gonna give you credit.

462
00:27:04,483 --> 00:27:06,266
You have made one hell
of a name for yourself

463
00:27:06,300 --> 00:27:08,616
in a very short period of time,
and everybody knows

464
00:27:08,666 --> 00:27:11,033
I give you and the rest of the roster
the leeway they want

465
00:27:11,083 --> 00:27:12,783
to handle things on Raw, the way you want.

466
00:27:13,366 --> 00:27:14,433
And that means chaos.

467
00:27:14,466 --> 00:27:16,550
It means it's wild.
It means I take the criticism.

468
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,916
But what you did with Braun,
Last Monster Standing,

469
00:27:18,983 --> 00:27:21,416
you sling my referees around,
you go through the wall.

470
00:27:21,500 --> 00:27:24,199
You put the WWE Universe at risk,
and I can't have it.

471
00:27:24,366 --> 00:27:26,050
-We can't have it.
-Look, look, look, look.

472
00:27:26,100 --> 00:27:28,800
I'm sorry if my actions crossed the line.

473
00:27:29,433 --> 00:27:31,633
But in a match like that,
no one can stop me.

474
00:27:31,683 --> 00:27:36,183
And if it wasn't for Seth Rollins,
I'd be the Last Monster Standing.

475
00:27:36,733 --> 00:27:38,716
So, when are you gonna make the match?

476
00:27:38,766 --> 00:27:40,483
So we're just cutting right to the chase.

477
00:27:40,533 --> 00:27:43,666
Look, I'm not even thinking about that
until you and I are on the same page.

478
00:27:44,066 --> 00:27:44,916
Okay.

479
00:27:44,966 --> 00:27:49,199
Look, everything I've done,
all the destruction I've caused

480
00:27:49,283 --> 00:27:53,149
every single tsunami I hit on Seth Rollins
and everyone else,

481
00:27:53,550 --> 00:27:55,583
was all to get me to the main event.

482
00:27:56,100 --> 00:27:58,966
Isn't that the sort of ambition you want
from your Superstars?

483
00:27:59,016 --> 00:27:59,983
Of course.

484
00:28:00,466 --> 00:28:02,766
So make the match.

485
00:28:03,050 --> 00:28:06,250
There'll be no trouble
because I just want the spotlight.

486
00:28:06,699 --> 00:28:08,933
I want the one-on-one match with Seth

487
00:28:09,449 --> 00:28:14,149
so I can show you
that I am a top guy in WWE.

488
00:28:14,233 --> 00:28:17,449
So it's that simple. Give you the match
and there'll be no trouble?

489
00:28:17,500 --> 00:28:19,833
-No trouble.
-Yeah, and you're a man of your word now.

490
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,166
Look, if you and I are on the same page,
and I hope we are.

491
00:28:25,433 --> 00:28:26,616
Then I will talk to Seth.

492
00:28:28,333 --> 00:28:32,066
Okay, You're a smarter businessman
than I thought you were, Adam Pearce.

493
00:28:33,466 --> 00:28:36,600
Imagine that. Talk soon.

494
00:28:38,983 --> 00:28:40,683
Don't keep me waiting too long.

495
00:28:43,116 --> 00:28:45,250
[Tessitore] Remember, it was
Reed's reaction to Pearce

496
00:28:45,333 --> 00:28:48,033
that started the wave
of tsunami violence back in August.

497
00:28:48,116 --> 00:28:52,116
Here's hoping this next road to Bronson's
career comes with sturdier guardrails.

498
00:28:52,199 --> 00:28:54,816
But right now it's the start
of the World Tag Team Championship.

499
00:28:54,899 --> 00:28:56,466
No. 1 Contenders tourney.

500
00:28:56,699 --> 00:28:57,600
[bell dings]

501
00:28:57,649 --> 00:29:01,050
[Irvin] The following is
a World Tag Team Championship.

502
00:29:01,216 --> 00:29:05,583
No. 1 Contenders Tournament
first-round match,

503
00:29:06,116 --> 00:29:10,633
Introducing first, accompanied by
Maxxine Dupri,

504
00:29:10,750 --> 00:29:12,383
Akira Tozawa,

505
00:29:12,449 --> 00:29:14,033
and Otis,

506
00:29:14,383 --> 00:29:18,216
of the Alpha Academy.

507
00:29:18,850 --> 00:29:21,333
[Barrett] And I'll tell you this, Joe.
How much would it rankle

508
00:29:21,416 --> 00:29:24,833
the former mentor
of this group, Chad Gable,

509
00:29:25,050 --> 00:29:27,816
if the Alpha Academy
could run through this

510
00:29:27,899 --> 00:29:31,750
entire No. 1 Contender's Tournament
and end up grabbing gold?

511
00:29:31,899 --> 00:29:35,050
[Tessitore] Wade, I wonder who
they're even facing in this tournament.

512
00:29:35,133 --> 00:29:38,016
Keep in mind.
Adam Pearce just threw the thing together.

513
00:29:38,100 --> 00:29:40,183
It's a very deep division.

514
00:29:40,616 --> 00:29:43,199
But styles and match-ups could determine

515
00:29:43,250 --> 00:29:47,116
the fate of Alpha Academy
to take a step towards the titles.

516
00:29:47,166 --> 00:29:49,300
But who will it be against?
We find out next

517
00:29:54,366 --> 00:29:57,866
Alpha Academy,
No. 1 Contenders Tournament.

518
00:29:58,483 --> 00:30:00,449
The question is, who will they be facing?

519
00:30:05,583 --> 00:30:07,149
Oh! [chuckles nervously]

520
00:30:08,016 --> 00:30:09,316
Erik and Ivar?

521
00:30:09,433 --> 00:30:10,800
Wade, are they back?

522
00:30:14,449 --> 00:30:17,833
We have not seen them together
in action in quite some time.

523
00:30:17,883 --> 00:30:18,883
["War" playing]

524
00:30:22,550 --> 00:30:24,583
[Barrett] Let me warn you, Joe.

525
00:30:25,216 --> 00:30:28,449
Raw is war!

526
00:30:28,766 --> 00:30:32,233
[Tessitore] Former NXT tag champs
former Raw tag champs.

527
00:30:32,699 --> 00:30:35,216
They've been partners since 2014.

528
00:30:38,633 --> 00:30:43,033
[Irvin] And their opponents Ivar and Erik,

529
00:30:43,216 --> 00:30:48,350
the War Raiders.

530
00:30:49,399 --> 00:30:51,649
[Tessitore] Back to competing
under the name War Raiders,

531
00:30:51,716 --> 00:30:55,766
and they are so capable
of being an instant-impact team

532
00:30:55,816 --> 00:30:59,033
in this division and right away,
getting into the mix.

533
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,183
No. 1 Contenders Tournament.

534
00:31:03,500 --> 00:31:05,550
-[bell dings]
-[Barrett] It's been over 12 months

535
00:31:05,816 --> 00:31:08,916
since we saw the War Raiders
in tag competition

536
00:31:08,983 --> 00:31:12,966
after spending a little time out
recovering and retooling.

537
00:31:13,533 --> 00:31:17,300
But now they are back
as a stripped-out version of themselves.

538
00:31:17,366 --> 00:31:19,783
More savage and barbaric.

539
00:31:19,883 --> 00:31:21,966
[Tessitore] Otis able to take down IIvar.

540
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:29,383
[Barrett] Remember the War Raiders,
former WWE Tag Champions.

541
00:31:30,383 --> 00:31:35,850
Sheer dominance on the continent
of Asia, Europe and the United States.

542
00:31:38,016 --> 00:31:40,083
They're gonna wreak havoc once again.

543
00:31:40,899 --> 00:31:42,333
[Tessitore] Tozawa, slammed down.

544
00:31:44,016 --> 00:31:45,983
And would you look at this.

545
00:31:47,016 --> 00:31:50,716
[Barrett] Strip back the face paint,
strip back the fur,

546
00:31:50,783 --> 00:31:52,916
and this is what you're left with.

547
00:31:53,850 --> 00:31:59,500
Unmatched barbarity
from two terrifying, powerful individuals

548
00:31:59,733 --> 00:32:03,216
[Tessitore] A big knee from Ivar,
and then another from Erik.

549
00:32:04,466 --> 00:32:10,050
[Barrett] 3000 year-old fighting style
perfected by these two behemoths.

550
00:32:10,216 --> 00:32:14,083
[Tessitore] First match since September,
15 2023.

551
00:32:15,366 --> 00:32:16,683
When they fought on SmackDown.

552
00:32:18,100 --> 00:32:19,066
[Tozawa groans]

553
00:32:20,483 --> 00:32:22,750
[Tessitore] It must have been
a tough stretch for Tozawa.

554
00:32:22,833 --> 00:32:24,833
[Barrett] Tozawa might have just
got a broken jaw.

555
00:32:25,433 --> 00:32:26,883
[Tessitore] And they hooked the leg.

556
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,916
And, fortunately, for Alpha Academy,

557
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,550
Otis comes in to save things.

558
00:32:32,633 --> 00:32:37,850
And now, Otis, who's going to create
his own momentum.

559
00:32:38,916 --> 00:32:43,016
[Barrett] The most disgusting move
in sport entertainment.

560
00:32:43,433 --> 00:32:45,449
[Tessitore] But the Caterpillar
interrupted.

561
00:32:45,699 --> 00:32:47,116
[Barrett] Thank you, Ivar.

562
00:32:48,633 --> 00:32:50,100
Keep an eye on Tozawa--

563
00:32:50,149 --> 00:32:52,050
[Tessitore] Missile dropkick
from Tozawa, Wade,

564
00:32:52,133 --> 00:32:55,016
[Barrett] A man who simply has
no fear in his soul.

565
00:32:55,100 --> 00:32:56,699
But maybe he should be…

566
00:32:56,883 --> 00:32:58,166
Proper powerslam.

567
00:33:01,316 --> 00:33:04,583
The Alpha Academy
are getting decimated in there.

568
00:33:05,866 --> 00:33:08,649
[Tessitore] And a big knee
comes in from Erik.

569
00:33:08,933 --> 00:33:11,449
[Barrett] Well, Erik could just
pin Tozawa right there.

570
00:33:11,516 --> 00:33:13,083
There's nothing left in the mat.

571
00:33:13,149 --> 00:33:15,516
[Tessitore] You can see
the concern on the face of Maxxine.

572
00:33:15,866 --> 00:33:19,283
[Barrett] The concern on the face
of everyone in this arena.

573
00:33:19,366 --> 00:33:21,316
Tozawa just got wrecked off.

574
00:33:24,100 --> 00:33:25,050
[Tessitore] Ivar…

575
00:33:26,949 --> 00:33:29,449
From the top rope, and the win.

576
00:33:29,500 --> 00:33:30,416
[bell dings]

577
00:33:31,250 --> 00:33:33,000
[Tessitore] And the War Raiders are back.

578
00:33:33,050 --> 00:33:35,050
[Irvin] Here are your winners.

579
00:33:35,466 --> 00:33:39,550
The War Raiders.

580
00:33:39,616 --> 00:33:41,683
[Tessitore] The former
Raw tag team champs,

581
00:33:41,733 --> 00:33:44,233
the former NXT tag team champs,

582
00:33:44,699 --> 00:33:47,016
as they take a step forward.

583
00:33:47,516 --> 00:33:49,716
No. 1 Contenders Tournament.

584
00:33:49,783 --> 00:33:53,533
[Barrett] Just when it looked
like the Caterpillar

585
00:33:53,633 --> 00:33:56,516
was going to take control, out of nowhere

586
00:33:56,600 --> 00:34:01,116
this new move from the War Raiders,
they call that the Fallout.

587
00:34:01,899 --> 00:34:05,100
And it's about as devastating as can be

588
00:34:05,183 --> 00:34:07,850
as they scrape Tozawa off the mat.

589
00:34:08,199 --> 00:34:13,466
The War Raiders progressed
in the No. 1 Contenders Tournament.

590
00:34:19,616 --> 00:34:21,049
Hey, man, Thanks for the time.

591
00:34:23,316 --> 00:34:24,666
I saw you talk to Bronson.

592
00:34:24,750 --> 00:34:25,600
I did.

593
00:34:26,383 --> 00:34:28,116
If we get the match made, what's the deal?

594
00:34:28,183 --> 00:34:29,866
Look, he wants the match just like you do.

595
00:34:29,916 --> 00:34:31,566
But I'll be honest, I'm apprehensive.

596
00:34:31,616 --> 00:34:33,699
And here's why,
you've had six matches this year

597
00:34:33,750 --> 00:34:35,516
and you haven't been healthy
for any of them.

598
00:34:35,566 --> 00:34:37,166
-WrestleMania, Money in the Bank.
-Okay.

599
00:34:37,216 --> 00:34:38,900
Reed's the one that puts you on the shelf.

600
00:34:38,966 --> 00:34:41,983
I see where this is going,
but you know injuries happen, man.

601
00:34:42,066 --> 00:34:44,600
Yeah, but there's injuries
and then there's injuries.

602
00:34:44,900 --> 00:34:46,199
You know what I'm talking about.

603
00:34:46,549 --> 00:34:49,299
Look, when you sign up
to get into this business,

604
00:34:49,383 --> 00:34:52,066
you know injuries are part of the game.

605
00:34:52,150 --> 00:34:53,600
-I know.
-Come on.

606
00:34:53,949 --> 00:34:56,750
And you fight through
those injuries every single time

607
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,566
to get to the top.

608
00:34:59,333 --> 00:35:02,733
Right? To run the jungle
where I'm at right now.

609
00:35:02,966 --> 00:35:04,066
That's what you do.

610
00:35:05,033 --> 00:35:07,799
And you know when you get
to that point, young guys,

611
00:35:07,883 --> 00:35:10,366
upstarts like Bronson Reed,
they're gonna come in,

612
00:35:10,416 --> 00:35:12,316
they're gonna try to make
a name off your name.

613
00:35:12,433 --> 00:35:14,000
You did it. I sure as hell did it.

614
00:35:14,216 --> 00:35:16,466
And now Bronson Reed is doing it.

615
00:35:17,683 --> 00:35:19,866
I'm gonna be honest with you Pearce,
listen to me.

616
00:35:21,016 --> 00:35:24,183
There's a reason I run this place.

617
00:35:24,799 --> 00:35:26,900
Reason I'm at the top of the food chain.

618
00:35:27,033 --> 00:35:28,283
Bronson's forgotten that.

619
00:35:28,516 --> 00:35:30,450
-I think you've forgotten it, too.
-Come on now.

620
00:35:30,666 --> 00:35:33,266
Just let me remind you,
I've slayed beasts.

621
00:35:34,383 --> 00:35:36,616
Conquered kings.
And you know what sounds nice?

622
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:39,799
Hunting a monster.

623
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:43,483
I need this fight.

624
00:35:44,116 --> 00:35:47,750
I need people like Bronson Reed
to bring out the best in me.

625
00:35:47,850 --> 00:35:49,100
That's how I stay sharp.

626
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:50,483
That's what keeps me on top.

627
00:35:52,299 --> 00:35:53,299
I want this fight.

628
00:35:54,733 --> 00:35:57,600
Because he tried to put me on the shelf
for good, tried to ruin my life.

629
00:35:57,650 --> 00:35:59,900
-That's all I'm worried about.
-But I need this fight.

630
00:36:01,483 --> 00:36:06,616
If you want the best version
of Seth Rollins, for your show.

631
00:36:08,283 --> 00:36:09,333
So think about it.

632
00:36:12,183 --> 00:36:14,883
[Tessitore] There's a lot for Adam Pearce
to clearly think about.

633
00:36:14,966 --> 00:36:17,100
We all want the best version
of Seth Rollins.

634
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:18,533
What decision will he make?

635
00:36:18,916 --> 00:36:20,783
Hey, no decision to be made here.

636
00:36:20,866 --> 00:36:22,266
Just stick around and enjoy.

637
00:36:22,350 --> 00:36:24,866

00:39:20,216 --> 00:39:22,316
We got a lot of folks in here tonight.

682
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,783
Let's say hello to our friends up there.

683

Our friends up there.
Let's say hello to our friends down here.

[crowd cheers]

685
00:39:34,883 --> 00:39:38,433
What's the hold to
know where you're going,

686
00:39:38,516 --> 00:39:41,000
you have to know where you have been.

687
00:39:41,716 --> 00:39:43,916
As much as I like to have my eyes
on the future,

688
00:39:43,966 --> 00:39:48,066
I do consider myself a wrestling
and sports entertainment traditionalist,

689
00:39:48,316 --> 00:39:51,250
which means I am immensely proud

690
00:39:51,516 --> 00:39:55,833
to be standing in a city
that has such rich history,

691
00:39:55,883 --> 00:39:59,616
such rich roots in a world
of professional wrestling.

692
00:40:07,133 --> 00:40:10,250
Whether it was Sam Mushnick,

Are every single one of you

695
00:40:13,916 --> 00:40:18,216
here tonight for Monday Night Raw?

[crowd cheers]

697
00:40:24,700 --> 00:40:26,116
There's been some more

00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,066
recent history, though,

699
00:40:31,033 --> 00:40:32,616
something very, uh…

700
00:40:34,750 --> 00:40:38,500
Something very special happened
in this very building not too long ago.

701
00:40:41,799 --> 00:40:46,366
Something that genuinely changed my life

702
00:40:47,383 --> 00:40:48,366
for the better.

703

[crowd chants "we want Cody"]

704
00:41:03,900 --> 00:41:05,433
You are indeed right.

705
00:41:05,516 --> 00:41:08,200
It was right here in St. Louis.

706
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:13,083
The first time we heard "We want Cody."

707
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,333
[crowd cheers]

708
00:41:19,766 --> 00:41:24,666
And I'm sure somebody will call me
a politician for doing so,

709
00:41:24,750 --> 00:41:27,700
but there's nothing political
about what I'm going to do next.

710
00:41:27,783 --> 00:41:29,049
It's quite simple.

711
00:41:29,133 --> 00:41:33,983
Thank you all very, very
very, very, very much

712
00:41:34,316 --> 00:41:35,666
[crowd cheers]

713
00:41:39,049 --> 00:41:40,650
With that in mind,

714
00:41:40,733 --> 00:41:44,083
so, Saint Louis, Missouri…

715
00:41:44,666 --> 00:41:47,450
[crowd cheers]

716
00:41:50,150 --> 00:41:51,883

["Prepare To Fight (Gunther)" playing]

719
00:42:05,150 --> 00:42:07,450
[Tessitore] Well, how about
the fact that this guy

720
00:42:07,533 --> 00:42:09,700
is going to be his opponent
on November 2nd?

721
00:42:09,783 --> 00:42:11,266
That's something to talk about.

722
00:42:13,049 --> 00:42:17,299
[Barrett] Talk about the fact that Raw
is Gunther's show.

723
00:42:18,366 --> 00:42:22,233
If you want to talk
about anything on Gunther's show,

724
00:42:22,566 --> 00:42:24,866
you run it by Gunther first.

725
00:42:25,366 --> 00:42:27,316
[Tessitore] A week removed
from his title defense

726

against Sami Zayn and won by submission.

727
00:42:32,233 --> 00:42:34,883
The second defense
of his World Heavyweight Championship.

728
00:42:37,583 --> 00:42:40,166
As he shows off the well-earned gold.

729
00:42:54,950 --> 00:42:58,966
Ladies and gentlemen,
the American Nightmare.

730
00:42:59,383 --> 00:43:01,533
Cody Rhodes,

00:43:01,816 --> 00:43:03,083
[crowd cheers]

732
00:43:09,083 --> 00:43:11,033
You know, Cody,
usually I would come out here

733
00:43:11,116 --> 00:43:14,083
and dress my opponent down a little bit.

734
00:43:14,616 --> 00:43:17,283
And speak a little bit
about that uncomfortable truth.

735
00:43:17,366 --> 00:43:19,100
But I got to be honest.

736
00:43:20,466 --> 00:43:22,500
There's not much negative
to say about you.

737
00:43:26,416 --> 00:43:27,716
Because, in fact,

738
00:43:29,116 --> 00:43:30,933
this company, this business, this sport.

739
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,083
It's in a boom period like never before,

740
00:43:35,299 --> 00:43:37,583
and it's all built on your back.

00:43:42,133 --> 00:43:45,700
You make every town,
you make every country

743

you make every continent.

744
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:52,083
You truly are the quarterback
of this operation.

[crowd chants "thank you, Cody"]

746
00:44:08,766 --> 00:44:12,783
So, Cody, there's not many people
in this company I respect,

747
00:44:13,616 --> 00:44:15,866
but, full honesty,
I have a lot of respect for you.

748
00:44:16,083 --> 00:44:17,400
[crowd cheers]

749
00:44:20,816 --> 00:44:23,799
And if I think about it,
there might be one thing.

750
00:44:26,416 --> 00:44:29,900
You just love to be
everybody's darling, don't you?

751
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:34,450
See the thing is,

752
00:44:35,166 --> 00:44:38,400
because of that, you're in
that mess with your old friend Kevin.

753
00:44:38,983 --> 00:44:43,933
Because he realizes everybody's friend
is no one's real friend.

754
00:44:45,750 --> 00:44:48,683
So I expect you to sort out
your emotional mess,

755
00:44:48,783 --> 00:44:50,766
because in Saudi Arabia,

756
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:54,083
I expect the best version of Cody Rhodes.

757
00:44:59,066 --> 00:45:04,366
So what you think, uh,
is my greatest weakness,

758
00:45:04,450 --> 00:45:06,299
I would say is probably

759
00:45:06,683 --> 00:45:11,383
my greatest strength, and I certainly am
not surrounded by friends.

760
00:45:11,466 --> 00:45:15,516
I'm sure you've seen
what's been happening on every show.

761
00:45:16,666 --> 00:45:18,816
But if I could make an observation,

762
00:45:18,900 --> 00:45:20,866
one champion to another.

763
00:45:22,766 --> 00:45:24,583
I've seen what happens

764
00:45:25,100 --> 00:45:27,883
when The Ring General throws everything

765
00:45:27,933 --> 00:45:30,700
in his arsenal at his opponents

766
00:45:31,366 --> 00:45:33,933
and they keep coming back.

767
00:45:34,816 --> 00:45:37,850
What happens is you get uncomfortable

768
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,650
What happens is I have seen it first-hand.

769
00:45:42,733 --> 00:45:44,600
I saw it at WrestleMania.

770
00:45:45,033 --> 00:45:45,983
You break.

[crowd cheers, boos]

772
00:45:51,100 --> 00:45:54,150
I could return a great many
of the things that you said,

773
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:57,483
about me being a champion workhorse,

774
00:45:57,799 --> 00:46:01,616
absolute and utter immense respect
I have for you.

775
00:46:01,700 --> 00:46:04,666
But you need to know,
you think you are swimming

776
00:46:04,750 --> 00:46:08,783
in the deep waters, but your feet
are still touching the bottom of the pool.

777
00:46:08,866 --> 00:46:14,133

one-on-one with me.

779
00:46:21,049 --> 00:46:23,100
That's a very fair assessment, Cody.

780
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,716
Spoken like a true secondary champion.

There it is, that dig.
I was expecting that.

00:46:39,133 --> 00:46:40,200
And I should have been.

784
00:46:40,283 --> 00:46:43,100
This is indeed your house now.

Gosh, you really have become frightening.

You've become a frightening beast.

787
00:46:51,083 --> 00:46:53,549
What did you call me?
A secondary champion?

788
00:46:53,633 --> 00:46:55,100
Let us not forget.

789
00:46:57,066 --> 00:47:03,250
I defeated the most dominating champion
in company history.

00:47:11,549 --> 00:47:16,483
I have already slain a frightening beast.

Good luck to me.

799
00:47:36,799 --> 00:47:37,816
The champ.

800
00:47:41,350 --> 00:47:44,316
[Tessitore] Did he just say good luck
to being the champ?

801
00:47:44,683 --> 00:47:45,583
[Barrett] Yes, he did.

802
00:47:45,633 --> 00:47:48,299
[Tessitore] I like how he says
there won't be uncomfortable truths.

803
00:47:48,350 --> 00:47:50,750
And then he goes down the path
of uncomfortable truths, Wade.

804
00:47:50,833 --> 00:47:53,733
[Barrett] Well, the mind games
have already started.

805
00:47:53,833 --> 00:47:58,400
Two alpha males who see themselves
as being number one.

806

[Tessitore] What a match
this is going to be

807
00:48:01,733 --> 00:48:04,450
to determine the first ever
Crown Jewel Champion.

as Cody Rhodes and Gunther
go head-to-head.

811

The two absolute best on the planet.

Someone is 1A. Someone is 1B.

Which is which?
We find out at Crown Jewel.

814
00:48:26,750 --> 00:48:30,850
Now let's focus on the ongoing drama
with The New Day.

815
00:48:31,700 --> 00:48:34,116
Specifically what we saw last Monday

816
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:37,799
with Jey Uso's title defense
against Xavier Woods.

817
00:48:38,016 --> 00:48:42,600
It was a spirited effort
by Woods that came up short.

818
00:48:43,266 --> 00:48:48,150
Kofi said, " Hey, good match,
great effort, shake the man's hand."

819
00:48:48,533 --> 00:48:52,783
Cold shoulder comes Jey Uso's way
from Xavier Woods.

820
00:48:53,166 --> 00:48:56,266
Meanwhile, Jey was celebrating
his title defense

821
00:48:56,633 --> 00:49:00,333
when all of a sudden, the Badass returns.

822
00:49:00,766 --> 00:49:04,366
Bron Breakker with a spear,
Kofi goes to help.

823
00:49:04,683 --> 00:49:08,316
Woods begrudgingly waits,
and a spear on Kofi.

824
00:49:08,816 --> 00:49:12,166
Then on the outside,
the super Spear on Woods.

825
00:49:13,750 --> 00:49:15,866
-What will he do with us?
-Do you understand

826
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,383
that if the shoe was on the other foot,
and you were out there getting beat up,

827
00:49:19,616 --> 00:49:22,183
that Jey would be one of the first ones
to come out and help you?

828
00:49:22,250 --> 00:49:26,250
Yeah, but I also remember
you saying that I was the QB.

829
00:49:26,433 --> 00:49:27,783
I called the play and you run it.

830
00:49:27,866 --> 00:49:30,299
But that just hasn't
been happening so far, has it?

832
00:49:34,316 --> 00:49:35,400
♪ Yes, it is ♪

833
00:49:35,583 --> 00:49:38,266
[Tessitore] So you get a sense
of the ongoing tension

834
00:49:38,500 --> 00:49:40,983
between Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston.

835
00:49:41,483 --> 00:49:45,166
Kofi Kingston,
who now comes out for this challenge.

is scheduled for one fall.

Introducing first,

representing The New Day,

842
00:50:00,650 --> 00:50:05,066
from Ghana, West Africa,
weighing in at 212 pounds,

843
00:50:05,166 --> 00:50:08,566
Kofi Kingston.

844
00:50:08,633 --> 00:50:12,766
[Barrett] Poor Kingston. Turbulent times
for The New Day and Kofi Kingston of late.

845
00:50:12,816 --> 00:50:14,516
It's not getting any easier.

846
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:18,983
He goes one-on-one
with the explosive Bron Breakker, next.

847
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,383
[Lee] The last year has been
one of the most exciting

848
00:50:29,466 --> 00:50:31,733
and fulfilling times of my life,

849
00:50:32,183 --> 00:50:34,216
not just coming to WWE.

850
00:50:34,833 --> 00:50:37,983
But becoming a champion
and having the honor

851
00:50:38,633 --> 00:50:42,716
of joining the legendary LWO.

852
00:50:44,850 --> 00:50:46,816
It hasn't all been easy.

853
00:50:47,816 --> 00:50:51,616
But with every setback,
I've become stronger,

854
00:50:52,516 --> 00:50:55,183
wiser, and better than before.

855
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:59,450
I remember that I am capable of exceeding

856
00:50:59,733 --> 00:51:04,766
my greatest expectations
that my heroes look at me

857
00:51:05,266 --> 00:51:06,549
as their equal.

858
00:51:07,333 --> 00:51:11,683
That I belong,
and not even the sky is my limit.

859
00:51:12,616 --> 00:51:17,500
Dragon Lee was destined to fly.

860
00:51:17,549 --> 00:51:19,233
Fly. [echoes]

861
00:51:28,666 --> 00:51:30,383
[Tessitore] Just awesome.
The exhilarating,

862
00:51:30,450 --> 00:51:32,333
all-action, high-flying Dragon Lee.

863
00:51:32,383 --> 00:51:35,350
A young, fast-rising competitor
born into the business,

864
00:51:35,433 --> 00:51:37,016
clearly destined for greatness.

865
00:51:37,299 --> 00:51:40,416
Of course, Kofi Kingston
has experienced greatness in his career.

866
00:51:40,566 --> 00:51:41,883
He's been to the top.

867
00:51:42,166 --> 00:51:45,100
And now, while his New Day partner,
Xavier Woods,

868
00:51:45,283 --> 00:51:47,083
has expressed growing frustration,

869
00:51:47,350 --> 00:51:50,716
Kofi faces this growing concern, Batman.

870
00:51:51,166 --> 00:51:52,666
["Break And Destroy" playing]

871
00:52:00,399 --> 00:52:01,316
[grunts]

872
00:52:04,833 --> 00:52:06,183
[Irvin] And his opponent,

873
00:52:06,250 --> 00:52:10,500
from Atlanta, Georgia,
weighing in at 250 pounds,

874
00:52:11,116 --> 00:52:15,750
Bron Breakker.

875
00:52:21,583 --> 00:52:25,450
[Barrett] Well, this is 250 pounds
of gelignite.

876
00:52:26,049 --> 00:52:30,416
With a naturally bad attitude
that has got even worse

877
00:52:30,466 --> 00:52:33,433
since losing
the Intercontinental Championship.

878
00:52:33,516 --> 00:52:35,766
To Jey Uso several weeks ago.

879
00:52:35,833 --> 00:52:37,883
The man has been on a tear.

880
00:52:38,216 --> 00:52:41,899
Last week, targeting Jey Uso
in a collateral damage,

881
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:46,333
catching Kofi Kingston
and Xavier Woods in the process.

882
00:52:46,416 --> 00:52:48,483
Now, Xavier Woods is not out here tonight.

883
00:52:48,533 --> 00:52:52,000
Kofi Kingston has decided
he wants to go in alone.

884
00:52:52,083 --> 00:52:55,216
There has been some issues,
of course, within The New Day.

885
00:52:55,299 --> 00:52:57,649
-But now it's a pure one-on-one contest.
-[bell dings]

886
00:52:57,733 --> 00:53:00,100
[Tessitore] And what am I
supposed to read into that?

887
00:53:00,183 --> 00:53:03,266
[Barrett] Perhaps that trust
is starting to fray within The New Day,

888
00:53:03,350 --> 00:53:05,916
understandably, they're not
on the same page,

889
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:07,950
and Kofi cannot afford

890
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:11,333
to have his eye on anything
other than Bron Breakker.

891
00:53:11,616 --> 00:53:14,483
[Tessitore] Came right out and pressed
the action against Bron Breakker.

892
00:53:14,566 --> 00:53:16,149
[Barrett] He's got no choice,

893
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:20,250
because if you give Bron Breakker an inch,
he takes a mile.

894
00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:23,000
Just like we saw.

895
00:53:23,333 --> 00:53:26,799
[Tessitore] Back on September 23rd, when
Jey Uso was able to defeat Bron Breakker

896
00:53:26,883 --> 00:53:28,116
in an instant classic,

897
00:53:28,833 --> 00:53:30,833
when Jey finally broke
through for singles glory

898
00:53:30,899 --> 00:53:32,566
becoming the Intercontinental Champion.

899
00:53:33,633 --> 00:53:37,899
[Barrett] Bron Breakker is just
as confrontational as they come.

900
00:53:38,750 --> 00:53:42,783
He's an intimidator and he has
all the physical tools to back it up.

901
00:53:43,649 --> 00:53:48,149
He has been on a streak of pure success
for the past three-plus years

902
00:53:48,866 --> 00:53:52,233
since falling under the WWE umbrella.

903
00:53:52,883 --> 00:53:55,733
And NXT, and then
once he turned up here on Raw.

904
00:53:59,316 --> 00:54:03,683
Bron Breakker is not a man
who accepts any form of roadblock

905
00:54:04,316 --> 00:54:06,600
on his path to the very top.

906
00:54:06,983 --> 00:54:08,116
[Breakker] Shut up!

907
00:54:08,983 --> 00:54:11,866
[Tessitore] Hear him talking to the crowd.
Like dogs that bark.

908
00:54:12,316 --> 00:54:13,250
[Kofi exclaims]

909
00:54:13,316 --> 00:54:16,049
[Tessitore] Just the force of going
into that turnbuckle.

910
00:54:16,450 --> 00:54:17,983
[Barrett] Bron Breakker feels nothing.

911
00:54:18,016 --> 00:54:20,899
He would fight this entire arena
if they dared.

912
00:54:21,750 --> 00:54:24,933
[Tessitore] Especially the version we've
seen over the course of the past week.

913
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,916
[Barrett] He's looking
to break everyone in his path.

914
00:54:28,149 --> 00:54:31,516
And Kofi Kingston,
with all the goodwill and intent

915
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:33,033
that he came out here with…

916
00:54:34,916 --> 00:54:36,299
[Tessitore] That athleticism,

917
00:54:36,950 --> 00:54:40,983
the twitchy athleticism of Kofi Kingston,
coming to his aid.

918
00:54:41,033 --> 00:54:43,700
[Barrett] Kingston's won it all here
in WWE

919
00:54:43,750 --> 00:54:45,399
over the past 15 or so years.

920
00:54:45,483 --> 00:54:49,850
I promise you he's never met anything
quite like Bron Breakker.

921
00:54:50,750 --> 00:54:54,016
[Tessitore] The special mix
of dynamic power and speed,

922
00:54:54,100 --> 00:54:55,483
the Badass in control.

923
00:54:55,566 --> 00:54:57,316
[crowd barks]

924
00:55:00,799 --> 00:55:03,799
[Tessitore] Joe and Wade, with you here.
Kofi Kingston and Bron Breakker.

925
00:55:03,866 --> 00:55:06,799
And the Badass has been in control
against Kofi Kingston.

926
00:55:07,049 --> 00:55:09,266
Of course, the first match
since coming off the loss

927
00:55:09,333 --> 00:55:10,816
of the Intercontinental Championship

928
00:55:10,866 --> 00:55:13,166
with Jey Uso back on September 23rd.

929
00:55:14,250 --> 00:55:15,383
[Kofi grunts]

930
00:55:17,083 --> 00:55:19,383
[Barrett] Terrifying levels
of physicality,

931
00:55:19,766 --> 00:55:22,466
from Bron Breakker
over the past several minutes.

932
00:55:22,533 --> 00:55:26,466
Brutalizing the entire body
of Kofi Kingston,

933
00:55:26,533 --> 00:55:27,483
[Breakker] We're done.

934
00:55:28,383 --> 00:55:30,500
[Barrett] And this might be goodnight.

935
00:55:31,033 --> 00:55:31,966
[groans]

936
00:55:32,016 --> 00:55:33,950
[Tessitore] Able to get out
of the way was Kofi.

937
00:55:34,383 --> 00:55:36,166
[Barrett] It was a mad scramble.

938
00:55:36,216 --> 00:55:40,500
It was about the only thing
that could possibly keep Kofi Kingston

939
00:55:40,549 --> 00:55:43,500
in this match and Breakker in the process,

940
00:55:43,566 --> 00:55:45,066
may have badly injured that shoulder.

941
00:55:45,116 --> 00:55:47,616
[Tessitore] Yeah, that right shoulder
went right into the post.

942
00:55:47,666 --> 00:55:50,283
Of course,
he comes with such speed and velocity.

943
00:55:50,366 --> 00:55:52,566
[Barrett] He may as well be
his own worst enemy.

944
00:55:52,666 --> 00:55:54,483
Did himself some real damage,

945
00:55:54,533 --> 00:55:57,516
and it's up to Kingston, the veteran,
to try and capitalize

946
00:55:57,566 --> 00:55:58,766
on that violent kneecap.

947
00:55:59,533 --> 00:56:00,799
[Tessitore] Can he do that?

948
00:56:03,083 --> 00:56:05,716
As Bron Breakker
tries to take control for a moment,

949
00:56:06,116 --> 00:56:09,750
Kofi springboard crossbody
right into the cover.

950
00:56:10,283 --> 00:56:11,350
[referee] One…

951
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:15,766
[Barrett] And that is the kind of movement
that Kofi needs.

952
00:56:15,850 --> 00:56:18,883
Despite the beatdown
he's taken so far in this match-up,

953
00:56:18,966 --> 00:56:22,200
it confuses Breakker.
Keeps Breakker guessing.

954
00:56:22,716 --> 00:56:24,450
Breakker only has one speed.

955
00:56:25,683 --> 00:56:27,200
[Tessitore] Boom Drop, Kofi Kingston.

956
00:56:27,250 --> 00:56:30,799
[Barrett] And Kingston has Breakker
completely outfoxed at this point.

957
00:56:30,866 --> 00:56:32,333
[crowd cheers]

958
00:56:35,083 --> 00:56:40,583
[Barrett] Breakker simply isn't used to,
is 100 miles an hour, straightforward,

959
00:56:40,866 --> 00:56:42,883
deviate from that, you get in problems.

960
00:56:42,966 --> 00:56:44,683
[crowd chants "New Day rocks"]

961
00:56:44,766 --> 00:56:46,533
[Tessitore] Looking for
Trouble in Paradise.

962
00:56:46,583 --> 00:56:48,250
Instead, finding Bron Breakker…

963
00:56:49,816 --> 00:56:53,066
[Barrett] Tossing the body
of Kofi Kingston around.

964
00:56:53,149 --> 00:56:55,166
But those cat-like reflexes of Kingston…

965
00:56:55,216 --> 00:56:58,366
-[referee] One, two…
-[Tessitore] And a kick out by Breakker.

966
00:56:58,466 --> 00:57:00,333
[Barrett] Managing to land on his feet.

967
00:57:00,416 --> 00:57:03,299
And now it's Bron Breakker
who may be in trouble.

968
00:57:04,100 --> 00:57:06,266
Just classic Kofi Kingston.

969
00:57:06,433 --> 00:57:07,816
[Tessitore] The S.O.S.

970
00:57:09,183 --> 00:57:12,583
[Barrett] Just milliseconds away
from a shock victory here.

971
00:57:13,633 --> 00:57:15,683
But Kofi really has done it all.

972
00:57:15,766 --> 00:57:17,500
He's stopped the test of time.

973
00:57:18,716 --> 00:57:20,883
Can he stand the test of Bron Breakker,

974
00:57:20,966 --> 00:57:22,816
-who keeps bouncing back?
-[Breakker] Shut up!

975
00:57:22,866 --> 00:57:25,316
[Tessitore] Looks like
the long-time success with The New Day,

976
00:57:25,416 --> 00:57:28,733
but as you know,
conspicuous by his absences, Xavier Woods.

977
00:57:34,299 --> 00:57:38,283
[Barrett] Kofi Kingston clearly hurting
all over but going skyward.

978
00:57:39,450 --> 00:57:43,149
[Tessitore] Yeah, finding his way
to the top rope, double axe handle.

979
00:57:43,233 --> 00:57:47,716
But no, the Badass, belly-to-belly
and look at how far he tossed him.

980
00:57:47,766 --> 00:57:49,649
[Barrett] Technique, power,

981
00:57:50,700 --> 00:57:55,350
explosive nature of a mean streak
a mile wide.

982
00:57:55,750 --> 00:57:59,750
[Tessitore] Super Spear opportunity,
Bron Breakker delivers.

983
00:58:01,333 --> 00:58:03,566
[Barrett] Just cutting
Kofi Kingston in two.

984
00:58:03,633 --> 00:58:06,216
-[referee] One, two, three.
-[Tessitore] And with that, the win.

985
00:58:06,283 --> 00:58:07,283

[Irvin] Here is your winner.

988
00:58:12,333 --> 00:58:16,033
Bron Breakker.

989
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:21,216
[Barrett] A little window
into what Bron Breakker is all about

990
00:58:21,266 --> 00:58:25,933
and why his rise to the top
has been so, so rapid.

991
00:58:26,399 --> 00:58:31,000
Will continue unabating
while he keeps putting away top players

992
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:34,783
like Kofi Kingston
with that devastated spear

993
00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:36,783
straight to the midsection.,

994
00:58:37,450 --> 00:58:43,200
Another W as Bron Breakker
looks to regather gold here on Raw.

995
00:58:44,683 --> 00:58:47,899
[Tessitore] The last time we saw him
landing the super Spear,

996
00:58:47,983 --> 00:58:50,333
was following
the Intercontinental Championship.

997
00:58:50,383 --> 00:58:51,616
[crosstalk]

998
00:58:52,583 --> 00:58:55,866
[Tessitore] This is not… Oh!
And Xavier Woods comes in.

999
00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:58,716
So that's when he shows up.

1000
00:58:59,549 --> 00:59:03,049
When Kofi Kingston found himself
in trouble after the match,

1001
00:59:03,116 --> 00:59:05,616
[Barrett] Well, that's a true friend
in my book.

1002
00:59:05,666 --> 00:59:07,816
-Putting himself on the line.
-[Tessitore] Absolutely.

1003
00:59:07,883 --> 00:59:09,383
[Barrett] Getting in between Breakker

1004
00:59:09,433 --> 00:59:12,316
as he was looking to destroy
a beaten Kofi Kingston.

1005
00:59:14,333 --> 00:59:16,399
[Tessitore] Well, Xavier Woods
does the right thing.

1006
00:59:16,466 --> 00:59:19,016
Oh, and then he comes
and attacks him from behind.

1007
00:59:19,100 --> 00:59:22,549
[Barrett] Talk about clothesline.
Looked more like a jawbreaker-type move--

1008
00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:23,833
["Main Event Ish" playing]

1009
00:59:23,916 --> 00:59:25,866
[Barrett] And Bron
is in big trouble right now.

1010
00:59:26,399 --> 00:59:30,200
[Tessitore] There's company and it's
the current Intercontinental Champion.

1011
00:59:30,283 --> 00:59:34,366
[Barrett] It's the man who was jumped
by Bron Breakker on Raw last week.

1012
00:59:34,633 --> 00:59:36,250
And now time for a little revenge.

1013
00:59:36,799 --> 00:59:38,066
[Tessitore] Superkick.

1014
00:59:42,750 --> 00:59:44,083
And a spear of his own.

1015
00:59:45,299 --> 00:59:50,083
Jey Uso,
sending a message back to Bron Breakker.

1016
00:59:50,483 --> 00:59:54,399
[Barrett] Taste of your own medicine.
But let's face it, Joe.

1017
00:59:54,533 --> 00:59:57,316
These two may well be
on a collision course.

1018
00:59:57,750 --> 01:00:01,683
A rematch at some point
for that Intercontinental Championship.

1019
01:00:02,933 --> 01:00:06,049
But, man, did Kofi Kingston
need his friends this evening.

1020
01:00:06,383 --> 01:00:07,533
[crowd exclaims]

1021
01:00:12,583 --> 01:00:13,716
[crowd] Yeet!

1022
01:00:14,933 --> 01:00:16,433
[Tessitore] A statement, yeet.

1023
01:00:17,333 --> 01:00:21,766
As Breakker knocked from the apron.

1024
01:00:23,383 --> 01:00:27,450
New Day and Jey Uso,
out to defend each other.

1025
01:00:37,783 --> 01:00:39,116
-Sup?
-You look ready.

1026
01:00:40,016 --> 01:00:41,533
-Yeah
-All right.

1027
01:00:41,616 --> 01:00:43,200
You want me out there tonight?

1028
01:00:43,283 --> 01:00:44,899
No, it's all good. I got this.

1029
01:00:44,983 --> 01:00:48,566
It's Tiffy's time to stand
on the ring apron and look pretty, okay?

1030
01:00:49,133 --> 01:00:51,766
But have you taken any more thought
into what we talked about?

1031
01:00:52,416 --> 01:00:53,616
Yeah, I thought about it.

1032
01:00:55,216 --> 01:00:56,049
Look.

1033
01:00:56,266 --> 01:00:57,183
[Priest sighs]

1034
01:00:57,500 --> 01:01:01,700
You've already destroyed
all the boys multiple times,

1035
01:01:02,233 --> 01:01:04,383
and you finally got
your revenge on Finn Bálor.

1036
01:01:05,433 --> 01:01:07,916
It's time that you get back
what you were robbed of.

1037
01:01:09,433 --> 01:01:10,350
That's fair.

1038
01:01:11,033 --> 01:01:14,983
Look, as long as you have a beef
with The Judgment Day,

1039
01:01:15,166 --> 01:01:17,000
I have beef with The Judgment Day.

1040
01:01:17,083 --> 01:01:19,916
So if you need me,
just tell me and I'm there.

1041
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:21,783
-You know this.
-I appreciate it.

1042
01:01:21,866 --> 01:01:22,783
But you're right.

1043
01:01:23,466 --> 01:01:26,866
I think it's time for Damien Priest
to once again be

1044
01:01:27,533 --> 01:01:28,649
el campeón.

1045
01:01:29,100 --> 01:01:30,500
-There we go.
-All right.

1046
01:01:31,833 --> 01:01:34,183
[both speaking in Spanish]

1047
01:01:34,649 --> 01:01:35,566
All right,

1048
01:01:38,850 --> 01:01:40,649
-Go handle these girls.
-I will.

1067
01:02:20,666 --> 01:02:21,700
R-Truth.

1068
01:02:21,783 --> 01:02:26,233
Who won the tag titles at WrestleMania
in a Ladder Match with The Miz.

1069
01:02:26,549 --> 01:02:30,466
Now finds himself
opposite his former partner.

1070
01:02:30,950 --> 01:02:33,416
R-Truth against The Miz, when we return.

1071
01:02:43,466 --> 01:02:44,299
[exhales]

1072
01:02:47,533 --> 01:02:48,433

1073
01:02:54,483 --> 01:02:55,433
Got a second?

01:02:58,399 --> 01:02:59,316
[exclaims]

1075
01:03:06,066 --> 01:03:10,049
[Tessitore] Jey Uso, clearly still feeling
the sting of betrayal from his brother.

1076
01:03:10,116 --> 01:03:13,216
And it was back here on Raw
on September 30th, Wade,

1077
01:03:13,500 --> 01:03:16,083
when R-Truth felt the same from The Miz.

1078
01:03:16,516 --> 01:03:18,933
[Barrett] His former tag partner
in the Awesome Truth.

1079
01:03:19,016 --> 01:03:20,216
Here's the thing with R-Truth.

1080
01:03:20,266 --> 01:03:22,833
-I don't think he quite realizes…
-["I Came To Play" playing]

1081
01:03:22,883 --> 01:03:24,250
…that that was intentional.

1082
01:03:24,299 --> 01:03:28,766
R-Truth is still wearing
the Awesome Truth shirt right now.

1083
01:03:29,033 --> 01:03:31,316
He thinks there was a case
of mistaken identity.

1084
01:03:33,183 --> 01:03:34,083
[bell dings]

1085
01:03:34,149 --> 01:03:36,716
[Irvin] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1086
01:03:36,883 --> 01:03:38,633
making his way to the ring,

1087
01:03:38,716 --> 01:03:41,283
residing at Hollywood, California,

1088
01:03:41,366 --> 01:03:43,966
weighing in at 221 pounds,

1089
01:03:44,266 --> 01:03:48,116
The Miz.

1090
01:03:48,899 --> 01:03:51,733
[Barrett] Well, it's all fun and games
with R-Truth, isn't it?

1091
01:03:51,799 --> 01:03:56,366
Until it's no longer fun and games,
and it seems like the annoyance,

1092
01:03:56,450 --> 01:04:00,866
the irritation, was just building up
from months inside The Miz

1093
01:04:00,950 --> 01:04:05,200
and with a certain little whisper
from some members of the locker room,

1094
01:04:05,283 --> 01:04:09,799
it poisoned the mind of The Miz.
But Miz finally snapped,

1095
01:04:09,883 --> 01:04:11,633
and the Awesome Truth is over.

1096
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:14,583
Someone please explain that to R-Truth.

1097
01:04:14,633 --> 01:04:16,250
[Tessitore] No, it was Karrion Kross

1098
01:04:16,316 --> 01:04:18,533
who approached The Miz,
planted a seed in his head.

1099
01:04:18,616 --> 01:04:21,683
And then, a week later,
he betrayed R-Truth.

1100
01:04:21,933 --> 01:04:24,633
[Barrett] It seems like
the mind of The Miz

1101
01:04:25,399 --> 01:04:28,016
was fertile ground for that seed.

1102
01:04:28,066 --> 01:04:30,466
It really didn't take too much persuading

1103
01:04:30,683 --> 01:04:33,850
for him to drop
his former tag partner, R-Truth.

1104
01:04:33,916 --> 01:04:36,283
[Tessitore] But consider the great times
they had this year.

1105
01:04:36,333 --> 01:04:40,033
For 79 days, they had
four successful defenses

1106
01:04:40,100 --> 01:04:41,933
of the World Tag Team Championships.

1107
01:04:42,016 --> 01:04:45,316
[Barrett] R-truth thinks they're
still friends. They're not friends.

1108
01:04:45,866 --> 01:04:47,600
What's the matter with you, Truth?

1109
01:04:47,916 --> 01:04:48,983
You're a joke!

1110
01:04:49,049 --> 01:04:51,966
[Tessitore] The Miz is looking at him
like, "What do you not understand?"

1111
01:04:52,016 --> 01:04:53,649
"Do you not recall what I did to you?"

1112
01:04:53,733 --> 01:04:55,183
But he extends the hand.

1113
01:04:56,633 --> 01:04:58,366
[Barrett] Truth thinks they're still boys.

1114
01:05:00,100 --> 01:05:02,016
[Tessitore] Miz says,
"Come on, let's do this."

1115
01:05:02,049 --> 01:05:04,200
[Barrett] They have a hell of a history
together.

1116
01:05:04,266 --> 01:05:07,933
They've won championships together
over ten-plus years.

1117
01:05:08,850 --> 01:05:11,450
But R-Truth clearly is dumb.

1118
01:05:12,266 --> 01:05:14,416
Miz has clearly doubled…
Oh, wait a second.

1119
01:05:14,500 --> 01:05:18,750
I just mentioned him.
Karrion Kross, Final Testament.

1120
01:05:19,266 --> 01:05:23,016
Oh! And R-Truth uses that to roll him up.
And gets the win.

1121
01:05:23,100 --> 01:05:23,983
[bell dings]

1122
01:05:24,666 --> 01:05:26,016
R-Truth, veteran move.

1123
01:05:26,066 --> 01:05:28,600
[Irvin] Here is your winner.

1124
01:05:28,666 --> 01:05:31,333
R-Truth.

1125
01:05:31,833 --> 01:05:35,833
[Tessitore] A costly moment
and he's celebrating with Miz.

1126
01:05:36,333 --> 01:05:38,816
He wants a hug.
He still doesn't get it, Wade.

1127
01:05:39,533 --> 01:05:42,466
[Barrett] I mean, he's just happy
he scored the victory as he should be.

1128
01:05:42,549 --> 01:05:47,433
It's the easiest win of his entire career,
but it was really an inadvertent assist,

1129
01:05:47,583 --> 01:05:49,866
perhaps from the Final Testament.

1130
01:05:50,116 --> 01:05:51,233
Get him right now.

1131
01:05:51,783 --> 01:05:52,799
[Barrett] Uh-oh.

1132
01:05:52,916 --> 01:05:55,816
[Tessitore] The Authors of Pain
are on top of R-Truth.

1133
01:05:55,866 --> 01:05:57,916
and they're throwing him back in the ring,

1134
01:05:58,416 --> 01:06:01,816
[Barrett] This is the crew that poisoned
the mind of the Miz, and there is your--

1135
01:06:01,866 --> 01:06:03,600
[Tessitore] Skull-crushing finale.

1136
01:06:08,216 --> 01:06:11,583
And look at that look, Wade,
after being rolled up

1137
01:06:11,666 --> 01:06:14,933
and taking a loss to his former partner
when he was distracted.

1138
01:06:16,500 --> 01:06:21,083
And that is how he'll be written in
the next the chapter of Awesome Truth.

1139
01:06:21,799 --> 01:06:25,916
[Barrett] Karrion Kross just has
a knack of amplifying

1140
01:06:25,966 --> 01:06:28,933
the most destructive force
of anyone.

1141
01:06:43,516 --> 01:06:44,433
Here, let's see.

1142
01:06:57,266 --> 01:06:58,250
Please.

1143
01:06:58,500 --> 01:07:00,200
-Just hear me out--
-I said no.

1144
01:07:04,100 --> 01:07:05,433
And get out of my face, man.

1145
01:07:11,899 --> 01:07:13,500
["Demon In Your Dreams" playing]

1146
01:07:14,133 --> 01:07:17,933
[Tessitore] The Usos, twin brothers,
former eight-time Tag Team Champions.

1147
01:07:18,033 --> 01:07:20,366
And now Jey can barely stand
the sight of Jimmy.

1148
01:07:20,616 --> 01:07:23,583
You just oppose
that now against Rhea Ripley.

1149
01:07:23,666 --> 01:07:26,200
Who, tonight, has a tag team partner

1150
01:07:26,283 --> 01:07:29,899
she could have never envisioned,
or perhaps even watch listed.

1151
01:07:31,433 --> 01:07:34,833
[Barrett] Very unlikely partnership
for Rhea Ripley.

1152
01:07:35,850 --> 01:07:37,533
Tonight, having to team with the woman

1153
01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:40,549
who she threatened to bury through the mat

1154
01:07:40,633 --> 01:07:42,083
earlier on this evening,

1155
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:47,266
but any way she can get her hands
on Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez.

1156
01:07:47,350 --> 01:07:49,466
You're right, Joe, Ripley's gonna take it.

1157
01:07:50,866 --> 01:07:51,750
[bell dings]

1158
01:07:51,833 --> 01:07:55,866
[Irvin] The following is a tag-team match
scheduled for one fall

1159
01:07:56,383 --> 01:08:00,766
Introducing first from Adelaide,
South Australia,

1160
01:08:01,416 --> 01:08:05,750
Rhea Ripley.

1161
01:08:07,283 --> 01:08:10,450
[Tessitore] Strange circumstances
to arrive to this,

1162
01:08:10,899 --> 01:08:12,733
but it should be a wild one.

1163
01:08:13,733 --> 01:08:17,300
Miss Money in the Bank,
teaming up with Rhea Ripley

1164
01:08:17,383 --> 01:08:22,783
against Raquel and Liv,
next on Monday Night Raw.

1165
01:08:30,166 --> 01:08:32,583
Next Monday night in Philadelphia.

1166
01:08:33,016 --> 01:08:33,899
Look at this.

1167
01:08:33,983 --> 01:08:37,766
It is the rematch
for the Intercontinental Championship.

1168
01:08:38,250 --> 01:08:42,016
Jey Uso looks to defend
against the former champ he dethroned

1169
01:08:42,516 --> 01:08:44,149
The Badass Bron Breakker.

1170
01:08:44,316 --> 01:08:47,383
[Barrett] And not only that,
the World Tag Team Championship

1171
01:08:47,666 --> 01:08:50,683
No.1 Contenders Tournament continues.

1172
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:54,349
Two first-round matches.
The New Day, go head-to-head

1173
01:08:54,583 --> 01:08:57,000
with the massive Authors of Pain.

1174
01:08:57,483 --> 01:09:00,649
And then Rey Mysterio
and Dragon Lee link up.

1175
01:09:00,750 --> 01:09:03,200
They go head-to-head with American Made.

1176
01:09:03,283 --> 01:09:05,250
That's next week on Raw.

1177
01:09:08,666 --> 01:09:12,550
[Tessitore] Rhea Ripley recently was in
against Liv Morgan at Bad Blood.

1178
01:09:12,633 --> 01:09:16,066
She won by disqualification.
Of course, no title change there.

1179
01:09:16,450 --> 01:09:21,250
And now you can see that intense focus
as she is ready for tag-team action.

1180
01:09:21,750 --> 01:09:23,633
The strangest of bedfellows, right?

1181
01:09:23,983 --> 01:09:27,933
[Barrett] And the anger inside Ripley
just continues to rise,

1182
01:09:28,016 --> 01:09:32,733
and I'm not sure tagging up
with Tiffy Stratton, is gonna help her.

1183
01:09:34,266 --> 01:09:36,666
[Irvin] And her tag team partner,

1184
01:09:36,816 --> 01:09:38,716
from Briar Lake, Minnesota.

1185
01:09:39,016 --> 01:09:44,733
She is the winner of the
2024 Women's Money in the Bank contract,

1186
01:09:45,483 --> 01:09:48,599
Tiffany Stratton.

1187
01:09:50,250 --> 01:09:53,066
[Tessitore] Next week, Monday Night Raw
is going to be in Philadelphia.

1188
01:09:53,149 --> 01:09:57,633
The Intercontinental Championship,
Jey Uso, Bron Breakker

1189
01:09:57,733 --> 01:10:00,316
headlining Raw from Philly.
Tickets available.

1190
01:10:00,883 --> 01:10:02,016
We'll see you there.

1191
01:10:03,066 --> 01:10:09,150
Tiffy Time. Her first match on Raw
in her WWE career for Tiffany Stratton.

1192
01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:10,700
[Barrett] Well, I tell you this, Joe.

1193
01:10:10,766 --> 01:10:13,950
This is what you call
a chalk and cheese pairing.

1194
01:10:14,333 --> 01:10:17,716
Two human beings
who could not be more dissimilar

1195
01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:20,150
other than the fact that they are A-plus.

1196
01:10:20,566 --> 01:10:22,666
-Once that bell rings--
-[Tessitore] They look like

1197
01:10:22,750 --> 01:10:24,266
they've forgiven each other as well.

1198
01:10:24,349 --> 01:10:25,966
["Watch Me" playing]

1199
01:10:32,783 --> 01:10:36,466
[Tessitore] And then there are these two
Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan.

1200
01:10:37,349 --> 01:10:39,866
The former Women's Tag Team Champions,

1201
01:10:42,266 --> 01:10:43,616
[Irvin] And their opponents,

1202
01:10:43,816 --> 01:10:47,566
the team of Raquel Rodriguez

1203
01:10:47,916 --> 01:10:54,816
and the Women's World Champion,
Liv Morgan.

1204
01:10:55,566 --> 01:10:59,349
[Tessitore] A reminder coming your way
on November 2nd at Riyadh Season.

1205
01:10:59,433 --> 01:11:06,016
It is Crown Jewel, and it will be
the first annual Crown Jewel Championship.

1206
01:11:06,816 --> 01:11:10,599
The men's champions
colliding the women's champions colliding

1207
01:11:10,633 --> 01:11:13,583
for the 50-carat diamond belt.

1208
01:11:13,666 --> 01:11:19,933
The best of the best, Liv Morgan,
Nia Jax, Saturday, November 2nd.

1209
01:11:20,900 --> 01:11:25,166
[Barrett] A stunning piece of hardware
on the planet, up for grabs,

1210
01:11:25,250 --> 01:11:29,150
combined with, of course,
the ultimate in bragging rights.

1211
01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:34,066
Man, how smart is Liv Morgan?

1212
01:11:34,150 --> 01:11:36,650
You need to contend
with Rhea Bloody Ripley.

1213
01:11:36,733 --> 01:11:39,616
Who do you draft in? Raquel Rodriguez.

1214
01:11:39,700 --> 01:11:43,116
Perhaps the one woman bigger and stronger

1215
01:11:43,849 --> 01:11:45,366
than Rhea Bloody Ripley.

1216
01:11:45,433 --> 01:11:48,349
[Tessitore] Rhea Ripley, just smashing
that head right against Liv Morgan

1217
01:11:48,433 --> 01:11:50,450
and then throwing her down violently.

1218
01:11:50,500 --> 01:11:53,816
[Barrett] I'm surprised Liv Morgan
chose to start off this match,

1219
01:11:53,866 --> 01:11:58,716
and it personally allowed Raquel Rodriguez
to take care of business.

1220
01:11:59,633 --> 01:12:01,666
[Tessitore] She tries to crawl
for the tag, Wade.

1221
01:12:01,933 --> 01:12:04,966
[Barrett] How irate
Rhea Bloody Ripley is right now.

1222
01:12:07,583 --> 01:12:09,966
[Tessitore] Liv, able to get free.
And here comes Raquel.

1223
01:12:10,016 --> 01:12:11,250
[Barrett] There you go.

1224
01:12:12,849 --> 01:12:13,766
Liv heard me.

1225
01:12:17,400 --> 01:12:20,633
There's some real history
between these two women.

1226
01:12:26,683 --> 01:12:31,099
[Tessitore] A match-up of this size
and power and strength.

1227
01:12:32,883 --> 01:12:36,099
[Barrett] Former friends,
former training partners and wait a second

1228
01:12:36,183 --> 01:12:38,800
just went Rhea Ripley
wanted to lock horns.,

1229
01:12:39,866 --> 01:12:42,650
Tiffany Stratton says, toodles

1230
01:12:44,166 --> 01:12:45,483
let me take this from here.

1231
01:12:46,050 --> 01:12:48,833
Tiffy Time, of course, the great
gymnastics background.

1232
01:12:49,966 --> 01:12:53,750
[Barrett] For the team USA
member alongside Simone Biles.

1233
01:12:55,633 --> 01:12:59,133
Raquel Rodriguez can be as big
and strong as she wants.

1234
01:13:00,166 --> 01:13:02,050
She's got to get ahold of Tiffy first.

1235
01:13:03,816 --> 01:13:05,200
[Tessitore] Can't find the target.

1236
01:13:07,933 --> 01:13:10,300
And Rhea on the outside with Raquel.

1237
01:13:10,366 --> 01:13:12,516
[Stratton] You're not legal.

1238
01:13:12,849 --> 01:13:15,483
[Tessitore] And look at Tiffany.
The discord between these two.

1239
01:13:15,566 --> 01:13:17,416
A team that was just thrown together,

1240
01:13:17,500 --> 01:13:20,300
arguing over who's legal
and who gets into the action,

1241
01:13:20,383 --> 01:13:21,833
[crosstalk]

1242
01:13:22,183 --> 01:13:24,950
[Barrett] Stratton is a stifler
for the rules for the first--

1243
01:13:25,016 --> 01:13:28,866
[Tessitore] Meanwhile, human missile
Liv Morgan from Raquel.

1244
01:13:28,950 --> 01:13:29,800
[laughing]

1245
01:13:29,849 --> 01:13:31,650
[Tessitore] Laughing right in their faces.

1246
01:13:31,916 --> 01:13:33,250
[panting]

1247
01:13:42,383 --> 01:13:45,950
[Tessitore] Raquel Rodriguez, Liv Morgan
teaming up against Rhea Ripley

1248
01:13:46,033 --> 01:13:51,866
and Tiffy Time, Tiffany Stratton
with Morgan in control now.

1249
01:13:51,950 --> 01:13:54,050
Hooks the leg of Tiffany Stratton.

1250
01:13:55,150 --> 01:14:00,250
[Barrett] Well, perhaps predictably,
this hastily-thrown-together tag team

1251
01:14:00,333 --> 01:14:03,000
of Tiffany Stratton
and Rhea Bloody Ripley,

1252
01:14:03,066 --> 01:14:06,183
has fallen apart
at the seams very early on.

1253
01:14:06,683 --> 01:14:10,383
No cohesion, no strategy, no chemistry.

1254
01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,900
And you've got to contend
with the former Women's Tag Champs,

1255
01:14:15,633 --> 01:14:17,800
of Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan.

1256
01:14:17,866 --> 01:14:19,400
[Tessitore] That's a good point, Wade.

1257
01:14:19,450 --> 01:14:21,900
So much time spent as tag partners
through the years

1258
01:14:21,950 --> 01:14:23,599
and you see, they haven't missed a beat.

1259
01:14:23,650 --> 01:14:25,500
Picking right back up
from where they left off.

1260
01:14:25,583 --> 01:14:28,016
Knowing each other's skill
set and ability,

1261
01:14:28,099 --> 01:14:31,900
and that's getting the best
of Tiffany Stratton right now.

1262
01:14:31,966 --> 01:14:36,200
And also you see, the sheer pure power
of Raquel. Total control.

1263
01:14:36,283 --> 01:14:39,150
The vertical suplex.
Raquel and Liv doing damage.

1264
01:14:39,200 --> 01:14:40,816
[Barrett] Toying with Tiffany Stratton.

1265
01:14:40,866 --> 01:14:42,700
[Tessitore] Hooks the leg for the win.

1266
01:14:43,683 --> 01:14:45,750
And Tiffy Time able to kick out.

1267
01:14:47,366 --> 01:14:49,450
[Barrett] The center of the universe
must feel

1268
01:14:49,516 --> 01:14:51,166
like it's imploding in this match.

1269
01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:55,250
Nothing is going the way
of the moth Barbie doll.

1270
01:14:57,033 --> 01:15:00,583
Gingerly reaching out,
trying to get a tag to Rhea Ripley.

1271
01:15:02,516 --> 01:15:06,550
Who perhaps is enjoying that
in this beat down of Tiffany Stratton

1272
01:15:06,599 --> 01:15:11,200
almost as much as she would enjoy
getting her hands on Raquel Rodriguez.

1273
01:15:14,566 --> 01:15:18,000
[Tessitore] Backbreaker as Rodriguez
enjoying this

1274
01:15:18,083 --> 01:15:20,516
and stretching out
Tiffany Stratton as well.

1275
01:15:21,816 --> 01:15:23,916
[Barrett] Stratton is as limber
as they come.

1276
01:15:23,966 --> 01:15:26,416
But even her frame
is getting pushed to its limits.

1277
01:15:27,033 --> 01:15:29,400
By this powerful force,

1278
01:15:29,666 --> 01:15:31,283
that is Raquel Rodriguez,

1279
01:15:31,366 --> 01:15:34,200
[Tessitore] And all that leverage
from Rodriguez.

1280
01:15:42,283 --> 01:15:43,433
And that uppercut.

1281
01:15:43,516 --> 01:15:46,266
As Tiffany has been absorbing
so much punishment.

1282
01:15:50,066 --> 01:15:51,733
The cover.

1283
01:15:52,716 --> 01:15:55,500
[Barrett] Stratton has spent
90% of this match-up,

1284
01:15:55,583 --> 01:15:57,250
getting stomped in that ring.

1285
01:15:58,666 --> 01:16:01,266
Raquel, making it look effortless.

1286
01:16:02,766 --> 01:16:03,866
Scrambling that tag.

1287
01:16:03,933 --> 01:16:06,483
-And I'd say Rhea--
-[Tessitore] Lackluster effort, wasn't it?

1288
01:16:06,566 --> 01:16:10,750
[Barrett] Not particularly hard to get
Tiffany Stratton out of danger here.

1289
01:16:12,616 --> 01:16:15,533
[Tessitore] And now she gets the tag
on Rhea Ripley.

1290
01:16:15,583 --> 01:16:17,566
[Barrett] Fun and games are over.

1291
01:16:17,750 --> 01:16:21,333
And now this is a huge problem
for Liv Morgan.

1292
01:16:21,416 --> 01:16:24,983
[Tessitore] Long-standing rivals.
big clothesline from Rhea.

1293
01:16:26,400 --> 01:16:29,233
And a dropkick that sends Raquel flying.

1294
01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:33,300
[Barrett] And finally, a little taste
of vengeance for Rhea Ripley.

1295
01:16:34,099 --> 01:16:37,516
Fighting wars on two fronts here,
it might be a little too much.

1296
01:16:38,133 --> 01:16:39,283
Who am I kidding?

1297
01:16:40,250 --> 01:16:42,816
Nothing is too much for The Eradicator.

1298
01:16:45,250 --> 01:16:46,666
[Tessitore] That knee hit hard.

1299
01:16:49,166 --> 01:16:50,400
She wants the Riptide.

1300
01:16:52,416 --> 01:16:54,316
[Barrett] That's exactly what she gets.

1301
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:58,166
[Tessitore] Stacks her
and Raquel comes in to save it.

1302
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:03,750
[Barrett] Will do maximum damage
to the form of Rhea Ripley.

1303
01:17:04,333 --> 01:17:06,216
Rhea simply too wise to it.

1304
01:17:06,300 --> 01:17:09,083
Those two former training partners,
former friends,

1305
01:17:10,216 --> 01:17:12,783
imploded during their time in NXT,

1306
01:17:12,849 --> 01:17:16,416
and they need no excuse, whatsoever,
to throw hands.

1307
01:17:17,616 --> 01:17:21,250
Tiffany Stratton going for
the world's greatest moonsault, missing.

1308
01:17:22,433 --> 01:17:24,733
[Tessitore] Meanwhile, Rhea Ripley…

1309
01:17:24,800 --> 01:17:28,500
-Oh! Nia Jax from out of nowhere.
-[bell dings]

1310
01:17:30,583 --> 01:17:33,216
Nia Jax comes running down

1311
01:17:33,816 --> 01:17:37,616
as Tiffany Stratton was up top,
looking for the prettiest moonsault ever.

1312
01:17:38,033 --> 01:17:40,616
Meanwhile, Rhea Ripley
was looking for a Riptide.

1313
01:17:40,700 --> 01:17:44,483
The next thing you know, Nia Jax,
comes from out of nowhere.

1314
01:17:45,083 --> 01:17:48,516
[Barrett] Well, Nia Jax who certainly
is not supposed to be here.

1315
01:17:49,150 --> 01:17:50,966
Look at this from Ripley.

1316
01:17:52,083 --> 01:17:54,766
[Tessitore] And Liv Morgan,
takes out her leg.

1317
01:18:00,233 --> 01:18:02,700
And just beating down now on Rhea Ripley.

1318
01:18:04,233 --> 01:18:08,200
[Barrett] Just when Ripley was about
to pull off the… Wait a second.

1319
01:18:08,433 --> 01:18:12,716
[Tessitore] Now Nia Jax
turns her attention on Liv Morgan.

1320
01:18:13,616 --> 01:18:16,866
[Barrett] The woman she will be facing
at Crown Jewel.

1321
01:18:19,250 --> 01:18:24,533
[Tessitore] November 2nd,
these two women will go after it

1322
01:18:25,116 --> 01:18:28,183
in the first annual
Crown Jewel Championship.

1323
01:18:28,533 --> 01:18:31,550
[Barrett] Oh, God, it's squashing time.

1324
01:18:32,266 --> 01:18:33,349
[Tessitore] Annihilator.

1325
01:18:40,116 --> 01:18:42,983
And now if you are Miss Money in the Bank,

1326
01:18:43,066 --> 01:18:45,466
-what a golden opportunity.
-[Barrett] What's happening?

1327
01:18:45,550 --> 01:18:47,300
[Tessitore] Could this be a cash-in?

1328
01:18:48,266 --> 01:18:51,483
[Barrett] Of the first opportunity
here on Raw.

1329
01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:56,033
[Tessitore] With the briefcase in hands.

1330
01:18:56,133 --> 01:18:58,200
-[Barrett] Wait a second--
-[Tessitore] Dirty Dom,

1331
01:18:58,983 --> 01:19:00,583
comes in to save her.

1332
01:19:01,233 --> 01:19:05,400
[Barrett] Romeo, Romeo,
wherefore art thou, Romeo?

1333
01:19:05,950 --> 01:19:07,966
Just in the nick of time.

1334
01:19:08,866 --> 01:19:11,666
[Tessitore] Tiffany Stratton
was moments away

1335
01:19:11,750 --> 01:19:14,616
from possibly becoming the World Champion.

1336
01:19:14,966 --> 01:19:17,700
But Dirty Dom pulled Liv away.

1337
01:19:18,916 --> 01:19:20,133
[crowd boos]

1338
01:19:20,216 --> 01:19:23,183
[Stratton] It's not Dommy time.
It's Tiffy Time.
?
