169
00:10:26,925 --> 00:10:29,395
What are you talking about?
This is business?

170
00:10:29,429 --> 00:10:31,464
I'll tell you what's bad business.

171
00:10:31,497 --> 00:10:34,800
I'll tell you about the people.
How about you, CM Punk?

172
00:10:35,267 --> 00:10:36,736
When you came back,

173
00:10:36,935 --> 00:10:41,307
it was one of the biggest,
the greatest WWE returns in history.

174
00:10:41,341 --> 00:10:43,126
-[Punk] Yep.
-We all saw it!

175
00:10:43,927 --> 00:10:45,345
And what happened?

176
00:10:46,146 --> 00:10:48,531
You cracked under pressure.

177
00:10:48,564 --> 00:10:51,317
[mockingly] You tore your wittle tricep!

178
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,770
Yeah, we all remember that.

179
00:10:53,803 --> 00:10:56,439
You couldn't handle
the spotlight, CM Punk.

180
00:10:57,372 --> 00:11:01,477
And that is why I am here.
Because here's the reality, dude.

181
00:11:02,228 --> 00:11:05,999
You're familiar to these people.
You're all they know.

182
00:11:06,031 --> 00:11:11,069
"Bro, it's Stone Cold!
It's John Cena! It's CM Punk!"

183
00:11:13,289 --> 00:11:17,293
The inevitable fact is, that name changes.

184
00:11:18,278 --> 00:11:20,295
And now that I'm a full timer,

185
00:11:21,113 --> 00:11:26,401
it's only a matter of time
before they're chanting my name.

186
00:11:26,435 --> 00:11:28,872
-[crowd chanting "What"]
-Logan Paul.

187
00:11:29,189 --> 00:11:33,826
-[crowd chanting "What"]
-I said, "Logan Paul"!

188
00:11:33,860 --> 00:11:35,361
[crowd jeering]

189
00:11:35,395 --> 00:11:37,497
[Pat] Gonna have to work
on the rhythm a little bit, I think.

190
00:11:37,530 --> 00:11:39,299
Logan Paul, I think.

191
00:11:39,332 --> 00:11:41,601
-[Michael] That's good.
-[Pat] He… I think…

192
00:11:41,634 --> 00:11:46,189
[crowd chanting "CM Punk"]

193
00:11:46,222 --> 00:11:47,223
[Pat] See.

194
00:11:48,574 --> 00:11:51,627
The most chanted name
in the history of any arena ever.

195
00:11:51,661 --> 00:11:53,746
[Michael]
Well, there's a bit of a rhythm to it.

196
00:11:53,947 --> 00:11:56,216
-It easily rolls of the tongue.
-Now, should we wait?

197
00:11:56,249 --> 00:11:58,151
Should we give it
that amount of time you want

198
00:11:58,184 --> 00:12:00,502
before they might start chanting
your name?

199
00:12:01,286 --> 00:12:03,456
-[Pat] So, this is the test here.
-[Punk] No?

200
00:12:05,225 --> 00:12:07,810
There's a lot that you said was wrong,

201
00:12:07,843 --> 00:12:13,382
but what you're right about
is the names do change, right?

202
00:12:13,415 --> 00:12:15,101
Those names you mentioned…

203
00:12:17,403 --> 00:12:20,707
myself included, we are legends.

204
00:12:21,891 --> 00:12:25,060
-[Pat] Oh yeah.
-[crowd cheering]

205
00:12:25,093 --> 00:12:29,082
We are history makers time and time again.

206
00:12:29,848 --> 00:12:33,185
Under the pressure
that you say I crack under,

207
00:12:33,252 --> 00:12:35,420
I make history.

208
00:12:36,005 --> 00:12:38,007
[crowd cheering]

209
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,843
You've never made history.
You're barely a flash in the pan.

210
00:12:41,877 --> 00:12:42,911
And guess what?

211
00:12:43,129 --> 00:12:48,067
You're not gonna be here long enough
for them to figure out who you are

212
00:12:48,101 --> 00:12:50,453
or to remember who you are.

213
00:12:51,020 --> 00:12:54,307
[crowd cheering]

214
00:12:57,093 --> 00:13:02,515
In the Elimination Chamber,
Saturday, Toronto, I will eliminate you.

215
00:13:02,548 --> 00:13:04,733
Maybe call it a little receipt

216
00:13:04,766 --> 00:13:06,953
for you dumping me out
of the Royal Rumble.

217
00:13:06,986 --> 00:13:09,906
I will go on to WrestleMania.

218
00:13:11,107 --> 00:13:13,325
I will face Cody Rhodes.

219
00:13:15,627 --> 00:13:19,899
I will leave Las Vegas
with the world title.

220
00:13:23,002 --> 00:13:24,504
I will make history.

221
00:13:25,822 --> 00:13:30,376
And you will be history,
nobody will think about you.

222
00:13:31,526 --> 00:13:35,231
'Cause that sign, Las Vegas is all for me.

223
00:13:36,348 --> 00:13:40,819
And I don't care if Cody Rhodes thinks
he has to sell his soul…

224
00:13:42,271 --> 00:13:43,356
to beat me.

225
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,428
He already knows
what you're gonna find out firsthand,

226
00:13:48,461 --> 00:13:52,564
Saturday, is that I am Satan himself.

227
00:13:53,483 --> 00:13:55,068
And in this business,

228
00:13:56,069 --> 00:13:59,271
you… are nobody.

229
00:13:59,756 --> 00:14:05,678

230
00:14:10,299 --> 00:14:16,622
[crowd chanting "CM Punk"]

231
00:14:16,689 --> 00:14:18,974
Okay, cool. Cool.

232
00:14:21,611 --> 00:14:23,228
-[crowd gasping]
-[Michael] Oh!

233
00:14:24,247 --> 00:14:27,699
[crowd jeering]

235
00:14:36,409 --> 00:14:39,145
Oopsies. Are you okay?

236
00:14:39,996 --> 00:14:41,197
Are you okay?

237
00:14:41,731 --> 00:14:44,183
Hey, my bad.
I don't know what came over me.

238
00:14:44,217 --> 00:14:47,319
-I'm just… My bad.
-Logan Paul, run while you can.

239
00:14:47,603 --> 00:14:52,641
Run while your legs still work.
On Saturday, it's not just a ring.

240
00:14:52,925 --> 00:14:55,877
You're locked in a cage with CM Punk.

241
00:14:56,362 --> 00:14:59,498
-[crowd cheering]
-Yeah, thank God.

242
00:14:59,899 --> 00:15:02,968
And I promise you,
when I get my hands on you,

243
00:15:03,002 --> 00:15:05,755
you'll understand why they chant my name.

["Cult of Personality" playing]

245
00:15:08,991 --> 00:15:13,396
[Michael] Well, Logan Paul
tried to punk out CM Punk

246
00:15:13,429 --> 00:15:15,031
here tonight on Monday Night Raw.

247
00:15:15,064 --> 00:15:17,650
This little cheap shot
sent him a bit of a message.

248
00:15:17,683 --> 00:15:20,703
[Pat] Yeah, I think
Logan Paul's walking out of here

249
00:15:20,736 --> 00:15:21,788
mission accomplished.

250
00:15:22,488 --> 00:15:25,440
Said a lot of things about Cincinnati
and then at the end,

251
00:15:25,474 --> 00:15:28,611
smacked CM Punk right in the mouth.

252
00:15:29,945 --> 00:15:32,882
-What a moment back in Ohio for Logan.
-Six men, one winner.

253
00:15:32,915 --> 00:15:35,318
This coming Saturday
inside the Elimination Chamber,

254
00:15:35,351 --> 00:15:37,569
the winner goes to WrestleMania
to face Cody Rhodes

255
00:15:37,603 --> 00:15:40,122
for the Undisputed WWE Championship.

256
00:15:40,156 --> 00:15:45,495
Well, it's been quite the debut here
at WWE for the man known as Penta.

257
00:15:45,527 --> 00:15:48,680
But his winning ways
has created a number of enemies.

258
00:15:48,714 --> 00:15:51,784
Let's take you back to last week,
it was Penta versus Pete Dunne.

259
00:15:51,818 --> 00:15:54,020
Ludwig Kaiser,
who's had issues with both men,

260
00:15:54,387 --> 00:15:55,738
came down to the ring.

261
00:15:55,771 --> 00:16:00,309
And that distraction allowed Penta
to deliver the Penta Driver

262
00:16:00,343 --> 00:16:02,995
and pick up the win over Pete Dunne.

263
00:16:06,365 --> 00:16:08,584
Kaiser was not done, however,

264
00:16:08,617 --> 00:16:12,204
as Ludwig Kaiser was defeated by Penta
a few weeks back.

265
00:16:12,238 --> 00:16:14,824
And now Pete Dunne
would get into it at ringside.

266
00:16:17,660 --> 00:16:19,645
Penta would take out both men,

267
00:16:20,179 --> 00:16:24,567
and it leads to our Triple Threat match
here live tonight.

Kaiser, Dunne, Penta, live on Netflix!

277

[Michael] We're back here live tonight
in front of over 12,000

in Cincinnati, Ohio.

279
00:17:24,327 --> 00:17:28,079
"The Bruiserweight" Pete Dunne,
Ludwig Kaiser set for action.

280
00:17:29,098 --> 00:17:34,403

00:18:26,956 --> 00:18:33,379
weighing in at 87 kilos, Penta!

293
00:18:33,412 --> 00:18:38,384
[Michael] Hey, Pat, this luchador
has taken the world by storm here at WWE.

294
00:18:38,951 --> 00:18:42,304
-[Pat] Absolutely captivating.
-Listen! Cero miedo.

295
00:18:42,804 --> 00:18:44,357
[Pat] He has zero fear.

296
00:18:45,707 --> 00:18:49,495
And it'll be on display all evening.

297
00:18:50,196 --> 00:18:53,065
[Michael] Under Triple Threat rules,
the first man to gain pinfall

298
00:18:53,099 --> 00:18:55,601
or submission will win this matchup.

299
00:18:56,918 --> 00:19:00,139
Penta, so far,
is 2 and 0 against Pete Dunne.

300
00:19:00,172 --> 00:19:02,191
He's 1 and 0 against Ludwig Kaiser.

301
00:19:02,224 --> 00:19:06,195
And Kaiser was embarrassed, Pat, by Penta,

302
00:19:06,227 --> 00:19:09,498
back at the Royal Rumble,
earlier this month.

303
00:19:09,532 --> 00:19:10,850
Kaiser entering the Rumble,

304
00:19:10,883 --> 00:19:14,986
and Penta eliminated him
in just six seconds.

305
00:19:15,021 --> 00:19:16,889
[Pat] Yeah, that's certainly
a quick in and out

306
00:19:16,922 --> 00:19:18,524
to the Royal Rumble for Kaiser.

307
00:19:18,557 --> 00:19:21,043
But I think when we look back on it,
Penta's gonna do a lot of things…

308
00:19:21,077 --> 00:19:22,161
-[bell ringing]
-…to a lot of people.

309
00:19:22,194 --> 00:19:24,245
[Michael] Penta was the Iron Man
of the Rumble match,

310
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,817
lasted over 42 minutes
after entering at number two.

311
00:19:28,768 --> 00:19:32,338
[Pat] Penta's… I mean,
it is an experience.

312
00:19:32,370 --> 00:19:33,755
[crowd cheering]

313
00:19:34,790 --> 00:19:36,258
[Michael]
And Pete Dunne with that enzuigiri,

314
00:19:36,292 --> 00:19:38,961
dropping Kaiser early on
and now makes it one-on-one

315
00:19:38,994 --> 00:19:40,546
with Penta at least momentarily.

316
00:19:40,579 --> 00:19:43,432
[Pat] Pete Dunne thought he had a win
last week until Ludwig Kaiser came out.

317
00:19:43,515 --> 00:19:44,417
He's got a lot of aggression,

318
00:19:44,450 --> 00:19:46,668
would obviously love
to get a big win over Penta.

319
00:19:46,702 --> 00:19:50,072
[Michael] Penta using his speed.
And now sends Dunne toward the corner.

320
00:19:51,724 --> 00:19:53,993
Penta's so much fun to watch.

321
00:19:54,025 --> 00:19:56,729
Here's a cover now,
Kaiser tried to steal one.

322
00:19:57,263 --> 00:20:02,017
Great ring awareness by Ludwig Kaiser,
the second generation Superstar.

323
00:20:02,051 --> 00:20:02,967
[Pat] Yeah, he's a talent.

324
00:20:03,018 --> 00:20:05,521
He'll definitely tell you about it too,
as we saw earlier.

325
00:20:06,105 --> 00:20:09,942
[Michael] Penta now.
That backstabber delivered to Kaiser.

326
00:20:11,127 --> 00:20:14,547
[Pat] Yep.
Cincinnati's coming alive for Penta.

327
00:20:15,214 --> 00:20:17,283
-[Penta] Cero…
-[crowd] Cero miedo!

00:20:17,316 --> 00:20:19,135
[Pat] Cero miedo.

329
00:20:19,652 --> 00:20:23,254
[Michael] And Kaiser knew what was coming,
and he steps out of harm's way.

330
00:20:23,289 --> 00:20:24,139
[crowd booing]

331
00:20:24,173 --> 00:20:26,175
[Pat] I do wish
I was able to speak Spanish.

332
00:20:26,559 --> 00:20:27,626
[Michael] Oh!

333
00:20:27,659 --> 00:20:30,296
[Pat] Pete Dunne with a big knee
to Ludwig Kaiser,

334
00:20:30,329 --> 00:20:32,581
and then an all-out assault
on the barricade.

335
00:20:32,615 --> 00:20:34,550
[Michael] Yeah, Dunne ticked off
after Kaiser cost him

336
00:20:34,582 --> 00:20:37,436
a match last week in his mind. Penta now…

337
00:20:38,788 --> 00:20:41,639
flying through the air
and taking out Dunne.

338
00:20:42,925 --> 00:20:44,744
[Pat] See, that's the thing about Penta,
he's coming up.

339
00:20:44,777 --> 00:20:48,931
[Michael] Oh, and Kaiser from behind.
Again, Triple Threat rules, no count outs,

340
00:20:48,964 --> 00:20:52,534
no disqualifications as Penta
is driven into the barricade.

341
00:20:53,502 --> 00:20:55,404
This Ludwig Kaiser. Oh man!

342
00:20:55,437 --> 00:20:59,558
Basement drop kick to the arm to Dunne,
which slammed against the steel steps.

343
00:20:59,591 --> 00:21:00,909
[crowd chanting "This is awesome"]

344
00:21:00,943 --> 00:21:03,946
[Pat] I mean, he just has that mentality
where he's not feeling

345
00:21:03,979 --> 00:21:06,665
an ounce of guilt after breaking your arm.

346
00:21:06,866 --> 00:21:09,869
Ludwig Kaiser wants to get to the top,
willing to do, however.

347
00:21:09,902 --> 00:21:12,120
[Michael] He's an agitator,
is what Kaiser is,

348
00:21:12,521 --> 00:21:15,291
as Penta now sends Kaiser
over the top rope.

349
00:21:15,323 --> 00:21:17,443
Penta now gonna climb high.

350
00:21:18,610 --> 00:21:20,361
The world-renowned luchador.

351
00:21:20,980 --> 00:21:23,264
[Pat] I mean, this guy, Penta, is awesome.

352
00:21:23,299 --> 00:21:25,100
[Michael] And Penta now flies…

353
00:21:26,101 --> 00:21:28,921
takes out Kaiser and Dunne,
our Triple Threat match

354
00:21:28,954 --> 00:21:32,707
-is heating up here live on Netflix.
-[grunts] Whoo!

355
00:21:36,312 --> 00:21:41,951
[Michael] Dangerous situation
and Penta takes out Kaiser and Dunne!

356
00:21:43,969 --> 00:21:46,187
And Penta trying to build momentum.

357
00:21:48,374 --> 00:21:52,595
[Pat] Holy hell,
this is when you can really go

358
00:21:52,628 --> 00:21:55,965
in a Triple Threat when you get
both men down with the same move.

359
00:21:55,998 --> 00:21:58,067
[crowd chanting "Penta"]

360
00:22:04,423 --> 00:22:06,258
[Pat] We're chopping
a lot of meat tonight.

361
00:22:06,292 --> 00:22:09,245
[crowd cheering]

362
00:22:10,245 --> 00:22:13,549
[Michael] Penta making both men suffer.
Oh! Sling blade by Penta.

363
00:22:14,850 --> 00:22:17,852
His unique version of that,
a big kick now to the midsection.

364
00:22:17,887 --> 00:22:22,975
Penta, across the ring,
delivers one as well to Ludwig Kaiser!

365
00:22:23,142 --> 00:22:25,410
-[screams]
-[Michael] And Penta's fired up!

366
00:22:25,444 --> 00:22:27,062
-[crowd cheering]
-[Pat] Penta's not scared

367
00:22:27,096 --> 00:22:28,848
to shift the gears,

368
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,484
pick it up a notch a good bit,
and also stand on his head.

369
00:22:33,903 --> 00:22:38,307
[Michael] Just tremendous athleticism,
great body control and…

370
00:22:38,756 --> 00:22:40,809
[Pat] I don't think
he should've went for two of those.

371
00:22:40,842 --> 00:22:42,945
[Michael] Dunne now.
Oh, he caught him though.

372
00:22:42,977 --> 00:22:45,481
Penta caught Dunne, a step-up enzuigiri.

373
00:22:45,514 --> 00:22:49,702
Kaiser now sends Penta out to the apron,
and Ludwig Kaiser, listen to that.

374
00:22:49,735 --> 00:22:52,137
Penta can deliver a chop
with the best of them.

375
00:22:52,171 --> 00:22:53,187
[Pat] Absolutely.

376
00:22:53,222 --> 00:22:56,391
[Michael] And now, Penta--
How incredible was that?

377
00:22:56,425 --> 00:22:59,428
-[crowd cheering]
-[Michael] What a hurricanrana by Penta!

378
00:22:59,895 --> 00:23:02,348
[Pat] It's-- I'm trying to figure out
what the hell he did there.

379
00:23:02,380 --> 00:23:04,817
-It was like an inverted--
-[Michael] Describe that for me.

380
00:23:04,850 --> 00:23:07,035
[Pat] It was like
an inverted hurricanrana.

381
00:23:08,003 --> 00:23:09,405
Ending up with Penta

382
00:23:10,272 --> 00:23:13,958
in a spot to really take over.

383
00:23:13,993 --> 00:23:15,878
[Michael] Well, Penta was gonna fly
over the top rope.

384
00:23:15,910 --> 00:23:18,447
Kaiser, though, dumped out
of the other side of the ring.

385
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:19,682
Penta now…

386
00:23:21,766 --> 00:23:24,186
-onto Dunne!
-[crowd cheering]

387
00:23:24,218 --> 00:23:27,356
[Pat] Did a pump fake
on Ludwig like he's Joe Burrow!

388
00:23:28,256 --> 00:23:32,511
[Michael] And now, Kaiser taken out!
Penta's flying all over the place!

389
00:23:32,711 --> 00:23:35,514
[crowd cheering]

390
00:23:36,447 --> 00:23:40,602
-[Pat] This man is spectacular.
-[crowd chanting "This is awesome"]

391
00:23:40,636 --> 00:23:43,272
-It is awesome, Cincinnati.
-[crowd chanting "This is awesome"]

392
00:23:43,304 --> 00:23:46,841
[Michael] And now, Kaiser driven down
by Penta for the win.

393
00:23:46,875 --> 00:23:49,461
Cover, Dunne breaks things up
with a stomp.

394
00:23:50,095 --> 00:23:54,300
[Pat] Double heel there from Pete Dunne.
Even his breakup was devastating,

395
00:23:54,332 --> 00:23:57,202
but this flipped
the entire match for Penta.

396
00:23:57,519 --> 00:23:59,471
[Michael] Penta is a joy to watch.

397
00:24:00,121 --> 00:24:04,976
So glad that the WWE Universe
is finally being introduced to a man

398
00:24:05,043 --> 00:24:08,964
who's taken the lucha world
by storm for over a decade.

399
00:24:12,818 --> 00:24:16,639
And Pete Dunne just, again, in your face,
and Penta will not back down.

400
00:24:18,290 --> 00:24:19,925
Big forearm by Dunne.

401
00:24:21,143 --> 00:24:23,361
-[Penta grunts]
-[Michael] Mentioned before at the top

402
00:24:23,412 --> 00:24:27,232
of this broadcast that Penta
has not made many friends

403
00:24:27,316 --> 00:24:29,318
since arriving in WWE.

404
00:24:29,835 --> 00:24:32,705
[Pat] Oh. He immediately started
being talked about.

405
00:24:33,038 --> 00:24:35,474
[Michael] Exactly. Dunne now.

406
00:24:36,091 --> 00:24:39,160
Does a leapfrog over Penta,
runs into a kick to the face.

407
00:24:39,194 --> 00:24:41,146
[crowd cheering]

408
00:24:41,179 --> 00:24:45,149
[Michael] Ludwig Kaiser now from behind,
grabbing the back of the mask of Penta.

409
00:24:45,967 --> 00:24:48,486
And Dunne drives Penta into Kaiser.

410
00:24:48,754 --> 00:24:52,140
And now, Pete Dunne
looking for the Bitter End!

411
00:24:53,175 --> 00:24:55,678
-Dunne may knock off Penta here.
-One, two--

412
00:24:55,711 --> 00:24:57,513
[Michael] And Kaiser breaking things up.

413
00:24:57,545 --> 00:25:01,450
And again, Kaiser may have cost Dunne
a victory over Penta

414
00:25:01,483 --> 00:25:03,068
for the second straight week.

415
00:25:03,101 --> 00:25:07,206
[Pat] That's why a Triple Threat win
is so damn difficult.

416
00:25:07,990 --> 00:25:11,260
That should have been over.
Any other night, that's over.

417
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,280
Ludwig Kaiser comes in, breaks it up.
Now, he's in complete control.

418
00:25:15,313 --> 00:25:16,365
[Kaiser grunts]

419
00:25:16,398 --> 00:25:19,368
[Michael] And Kaiser now,
taking the fight to Dunne.

420
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,521
-[screams]
-[Michael] Oh, look at Kaiser

421
00:25:22,553 --> 00:25:25,657
screaming in pain
as Dunne tries to break his fingers.

422
00:25:25,957 --> 00:25:28,610
-[Dunne grunts]
-[Michael] Oh my goodness.

423
00:25:28,644 --> 00:25:29,812
-[Pat] Did he?
-[groans]

424
00:25:31,213 --> 00:25:33,331
[Michael] Penta! Oh my God!

425
00:25:33,365 --> 00:25:35,300
[crowd cheering]

426
00:25:35,333 --> 00:25:37,970
[Michael] Mexican Destroyer onto Kaiser!

427
00:25:40,188 --> 00:25:42,424
[Pat] Holy hell.

428
00:25:42,457 --> 00:25:44,643
[Michael] And now,
looking for The Sacrifice.

429
00:25:46,879 --> 00:25:49,715
-Cero…
-[crowd] Cero miedo!

430
00:25:49,764 --> 00:25:52,668
[Michael] Locked in now,
trying to break the arm of Dunne!

431
00:25:53,468 --> 00:25:58,223
Setting him up for the finishing maneuver,
known as the Penta Driver.

432
00:25:58,639 --> 00:26:01,409
[Pat] Well, well, well,
he bobbled a little bit late in the match.

433
00:26:01,443 --> 00:26:03,912
[Michael] Kaiser, though,
sends Penta outside the ring.

434
00:26:03,946 --> 00:26:08,966
Kaiser now trying to take advantage!
Down goes Dunne, planted by Kaiser!

435
00:26:09,001 --> 00:26:10,018
[crowd] One! Two!

436
00:26:10,052 --> 00:26:12,020
-[Michael] Kaiser with a win!
-[bell ringing]

437
00:26:12,053 --> 00:26:14,473
-[Michael] What a win by Kaiser!
-[crowd cheering]

438
00:26:14,505 --> 00:26:17,609
-[Michael] What a win by Kaiser.
-[Alicia] And here is your winner.

439
00:26:17,643 --> 00:26:21,764
Ludwig Kaiser!

440
00:26:21,797 --> 00:26:23,264
[Michael] Penta had The Sacrifice.

441
00:26:23,298 --> 00:26:27,369
He was looking for the Penta Driver
when Kaiser took advantage.

442
00:26:27,953 --> 00:26:30,889
[Pat] I mean, Ludwig just kinda…

443
00:26:31,572 --> 00:26:34,443
-[crowd cheering]
-…laying in the weeds a little bit

444
00:26:34,476 --> 00:26:36,829
after being used for a Mexican Destroyer,

445
00:26:36,861 --> 00:26:41,183
and then super kicked out
of the ring. A bobble on the Penta.

446
00:26:42,283 --> 00:26:45,838
Which-- [hesitates]
Ludwig Kaiser steals the win…

447
00:26:46,905 --> 00:26:50,775
and plants Pete Dunne
directly on the top of his head.

448
00:26:50,976 --> 00:26:52,360
One, two, three.

449
00:26:52,727 --> 00:26:55,931
-The Ludwig Kaiser, year of 2025…
-[speaks indistinctly]

450
00:26:55,964 --> 00:26:58,117
…has a massive Triple Threat winner.

451
00:26:58,149 --> 00:27:01,486
[Michael] Yeah, you mentioned earlier,
Pat, this could be the year Ludwig Kaiser.

452
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,822
He really started to break out in 2024.

453
00:27:04,857 --> 00:27:07,091
Absolutely. Superstar in the making.

454
00:27:07,126 --> 00:27:08,894
He said some terrible things
to the people of Cincinnati

455
00:27:08,927 --> 00:27:11,163
during the break,
and he might want to change that.

456
00:27:11,196 --> 00:27:13,348
But if he keeps winning,
why not Ludwig Kaiser?

457
00:27:13,381 --> 00:27:14,633
Who's saying "nein"?

458
00:27:14,666 --> 00:27:16,185
-That's German for "no".
-Thank you.

459
00:27:16,217 --> 00:27:19,071
Ladies and gentlemen,
we are heading toward Toronto

460
00:27:19,103 --> 00:27:21,689
this Saturday in Elimination Chamber,

461
00:27:21,723 --> 00:27:26,078
and the time is now or never
for John Cena.

462
00:27:26,110 --> 00:27:30,232
His last opportunity
to main event WrestleMania

463
00:27:30,264 --> 00:27:33,101
in his last Elimination Chamber match.

464
00:27:36,388 --> 00:27:37,805
[soft emotional music playing]

465
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,191
[Cena] I'm announcing tonight

466
00:27:39,224 --> 00:27:41,960
that I will compete
in the Elimination Chamber.

467
00:27:43,445 --> 00:27:47,216
What is best for business
is I main event WrestleMania.

468
00:27:47,683 --> 00:27:50,151
And what is best for business is,
for the first time,

469
00:27:50,185 --> 00:27:53,304
I confidently say
that I'm gonna win a 17th championship.

470
00:27:53,589 --> 00:27:58,210
[Michael] John Cena entering his
last chamber match ever.

471
00:27:58,476 --> 00:28:01,230
[Cena] I have built my existence here
off of hard work,

472
00:28:01,513 --> 00:28:05,951
loyalty to this company,
and respect for all of its branches.

473
00:28:06,869 --> 00:28:09,437
I will win 17 not for me.

474
00:28:10,355 --> 00:28:14,443
I will win 17 to someday shake the hand
of the person who wins 18.

475
00:28:16,544 --> 00:28:18,714
I told Toronto
when I announced my retirement

476
00:28:18,746 --> 00:28:21,449
that I was grateful for the city
and I would be back,

477
00:28:21,483 --> 00:28:23,168
and I would be back to kick ass.

478
00:28:23,918 --> 00:28:27,639
It is time to walk that talk
and be who I say I am.

479
00:28:28,823 --> 00:28:31,109
I am going
to the Elimination Chamber to win,

480
00:28:31,810 --> 00:28:35,480
and I'm going to main event
my final appearance in WrestleMania

481
00:28:35,714 --> 00:28:37,733
and win a 17th championship.

482
00:28:38,867 --> 00:28:40,918
-[music concludes]
-[crowd cheering]

483
00:28:42,803 --> 00:28:47,793
Ladies and gentlemen, give it up
for your Women's World Champion,

484
00:28:47,826 --> 00:28:50,228
-Rhea Ripley!
-[crowd cheering]

485
00:28:50,262 --> 00:28:55,516
["Demon In Your Dreams" playing]

486
00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:59,588
-Listen…
-[music fades]

487
00:29:00,254 --> 00:29:04,643
…Rhea Ripley,
we are all waiting in anticipation

488
00:29:04,676 --> 00:29:08,664
to see who's gonna win
this Women's Elimination Chamber match

489
00:29:08,697 --> 00:29:13,502
on Saturday to become the challenger
to this very title.

490
00:29:13,985 --> 00:29:17,472
The thing is,
we don't technically know

491
00:29:17,505 --> 00:29:20,591
who our Women's World Champion
is going to be.

492
00:29:20,626 --> 00:29:23,178
Because next week on Monday Night Raw,

493
00:29:23,211 --> 00:29:26,264
you defend this championship
against Iyo Sky.

494
00:29:26,298 --> 00:29:29,851
So, my question for you is,
how are you managing

495
00:29:29,885 --> 00:29:33,855
to prepare for this title defense
with Elimination Chamber looming?

496
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,876
Look, I'm gonna have an eye
on Elimination Chamber,

497
00:29:37,908 --> 00:29:40,411

if I wanna walk into WrestleMania

501
00:29:49,053 --> 00:29:51,206
still your Women's World Champion,

502
00:29:51,255 --> 00:29:54,959
then I'm gonna have to do
the one thing that I have never done.

But the thing is…

504
00:30:00,081 --> 00:30:04,936
it's been nearly five years
since Iyo and I have fought each other.

505
00:30:06,154 --> 00:30:08,423
And in those five years,

506
00:30:08,874 --> 00:30:12,110
I have become the most dominant woman here

507

to add Iyo Sky's name to that list.

will start things off against Wilde.

You know, Woods,
we talked about him earlier today.

575
00:34:32,203 --> 00:34:34,538
We found out that he possibly is suffering

576
00:34:34,656 --> 00:34:38,226
from an inferiority complex
that dates all the way back

577
00:34:38,259 --> 00:34:39,793
to when he was in high school, Pat.

00:34:39,828 --> 00:34:44,366

One, two, three…

can certainly drive up

583
00:34:54,159 --> 00:34:55,694
some spite in a young man.

584

he's acting out the way he is today.

are gonna hit on every single time.

[Michael] And again,
I just don't understand

621
00:36:42,433 --> 00:36:45,403
the change in attitude.
I mean, they were so well loved,

622
00:36:45,437 --> 00:36:48,490

maybe the greatest tag team ever, maybe.

623

I mean, why act like this?
Why act like these jerks?

You know… as you look maybe to wrap up
your career in a few years.

625
00:36:57,781 --> 00:37:00,602
[Pat] It might have been traumatizing
whenever they lost Big E to injury.

626
00:37:00,634 --> 00:37:02,028
And then that might have
turned into spite.

627

You might have seen how they were
only hanging out with each other,

only listening to each other.

629
00:37:05,056 --> 00:37:07,225

they've turned into this now,

630
00:37:07,258 --> 00:37:09,928

here's the hook of the leg now.

JBL once referred to as the unicorn stomp.

about that earlier today.

He goes, "Unicorns are stupid."

-[Pat] Is that a direct quote?
-[Michael] Direct quote from Xavier Woods.

the intelligence levels of unicorns.

like that because--

[Michael] Oh, look at this now.
Del Toro looks for the win and a kick-out.

who is certainly impressed.

now here comes Kofi Kingston.

646
00:37:48,750 --> 00:37:49,834
You know, Woods also upset

647
00:37:49,868 --> 00:37:53,288
that he's never been able
to win a singles championship in WWE.

648
00:37:53,321 --> 00:37:54,389
He was king of the ring.

649
00:37:54,422 --> 00:37:57,342
Meanwhile, his partner Kofi Kingston's
a Grand Slam champion.

650
00:37:57,375 --> 00:37:59,377
Maybe Woods should be mad
at him and not Big E.

651
00:37:59,928 --> 00:38:01,429
[Pat] There's a lot of different people

652
00:38:01,462 --> 00:38:03,815
that you can direct your anger
instead of having

653
00:38:04,699 --> 00:38:06,668
an attitude adjustment
in the way that they have.

654
00:38:06,701 --> 00:38:08,553
But now can Del Toro get a tag?

655
00:38:10,154 --> 00:38:13,857
[Michael] The LWO tag made.
Here comes Joaquin Wilde.

656
00:38:15,375 --> 00:38:18,880
[Pat] Powerful lariat, two of them.
Big boot.

657
00:38:20,832 --> 00:38:23,218
Him and Kofi were getting
after it on social media.

658
00:38:23,250 --> 00:38:24,986
Now it's happening
in the middle of Cincinnati.

659
00:38:25,019 --> 00:38:27,989
[Michael] And Wilde, of course,
has a short fuse.

660
00:38:28,022 --> 00:38:31,793
Has a mean streak when he needs one,
on display here.

661
00:38:32,026 --> 00:38:34,345

But you all waste it by just being a goof
and dance around

826
00:48:04,065 --> 00:48:07,368
to the enjoyment of those degenerate fans.

827
00:48:07,401 --> 00:48:09,953
[crowd jeering]

828
00:48:11,071 --> 00:48:13,140
And just like Jey Uso…

829
00:48:15,076 --> 00:48:17,144
you're making the wrong choices.

830
00:48:20,413 --> 00:48:26,787
Jey's choice to face me at WrestleMania
will cost him a career at WrestleMania.

831
00:48:27,837 --> 00:48:31,475
But your career-- Hey, Pat…

832
00:48:33,511 --> 00:48:35,246
-[Pat] Hello.
-What did you say last week?

833
00:48:35,663 --> 00:48:36,763
One night only?

834
00:48:37,248 --> 00:48:38,783
-[Pat] Yeah.
-Anything can happen?

835
00:48:38,816 --> 00:48:42,019
-Yeah, a yeet here, a yeet-- Okay.
-So maybe, Tozawa,

836
00:48:42,118 --> 00:48:46,107
today you could achieve something
that Jey Uso never will.

837
00:48:47,107 --> 00:48:51,511
You have the chance to earn my respect.

838
00:48:55,182 --> 00:48:58,435
So come on, Tozawa, earn my respect.

839
00:49:00,004 --> 00:49:03,207
Come on, earn my respect, Tozawa.

840
00:49:04,341 --> 00:49:05,542
-Come on.
-[bell ringing]

841
00:49:05,576 --> 00:49:07,778
[Michael] Well, the bell's underway,
and Tozawa with a kick

842
00:49:07,812 --> 00:49:10,114
to the face of Gunther,
and here comes Tozawa now,

843
00:49:10,147 --> 00:49:11,899
taking it to the World Champion.

844
00:49:12,716 --> 00:49:17,171
Tozawa showing some fire and some fight.
And a big kick, and Gunther's in trouble.

845
00:49:17,203 --> 00:49:18,856
Look at Tozawa go!

846
00:49:18,906 --> 00:49:22,158
[Pat] I mean, this is the only way Akira
has any shot, is hit him early…

847
00:49:22,192 --> 00:49:23,544
[Michael] Boom! Good night.

848
00:49:23,577 --> 00:49:28,065
[Pat] …'cause when he hits you,
it's gonna end early!

849
00:49:28,833 --> 00:49:31,585
Cincinnati's resident newsman,

850
00:49:31,618 --> 00:49:36,740
Les Nessman, may be reading
Tozawa's obituary tonight,

851
00:49:36,774 --> 00:49:39,926
because Gunther
is about to destroy this man.

852
00:49:40,411 --> 00:49:43,230
Evan "Money" McPherson
kicks bombs for field goals

853
00:49:43,263 --> 00:49:44,714
in this city for the Bengals.

854
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:48,919
[Michael] Oh! Oh God!

855
00:49:50,888 --> 00:49:55,075
[Pat] I mean, that man's soul
just left his body right there.

856
00:49:58,729 --> 00:49:59,763
[Michael] Like, literally.

857
00:50:00,214 --> 00:50:02,766
Oh no. Oh no, Tozawa,
though trying to fight back.

858
00:50:03,384 --> 00:50:06,569
Oh, that's enough of fight back,
just tossed away by Gunther.

859
00:50:06,604 --> 00:50:10,089
Big kick now by Tozawa,
who's showing some fight tonight.

860
00:50:10,124 --> 00:50:14,995
And Gunther with that big
dinosaur drop kick to Tozawa.

861
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:19,600
That dinosaur--

862
00:50:19,633 --> 00:50:22,086
-Oh, Tozawa! Tozawa!
-[Michael] Tozawa, Tozawa!

863
00:50:22,286 --> 00:50:23,870
Almost had the champ!

864
00:50:24,687 --> 00:50:26,824
Tozawa's starting to believe.

865
00:50:28,241 --> 00:50:30,810
-[Pat] Tozawa said, "Hey, I can--"
-[Michael] Hey, you said it,

866
00:50:30,844 --> 00:50:32,796
any given night, anything can happen!

867
00:50:34,114 --> 00:50:36,016
[Pat] Literally, humans gotta operate.

868
00:50:36,350 --> 00:50:38,986
[Michael] Uh-oh. Boston crab now.

869
00:50:39,853 --> 00:50:42,223
And Gunther just sitting down on Tozawa.

870
00:50:43,089 --> 00:50:44,741
Gonna break this man in half.

871
00:50:45,408 --> 00:50:49,879
Otis screaming at Tozawa
to try to fight back into this thing,

872
00:50:50,047 --> 00:50:52,683
but I don't know how much Tozawa has left.

873
00:50:52,716 --> 00:50:54,535
[Pat] Oh, he's in a full presser
right now.

874
00:50:54,567 --> 00:50:56,921
[Michael] Young man trying to get
to the bottom rope and…

875
00:50:57,187 --> 00:51:00,040
-[Otis] Come on, Tozawa!
-[Pat] Otis saying, come on, Tozawa,

876
00:51:00,074 --> 00:51:01,625
don't you quit, and he doesn't.

877
00:51:02,308 --> 00:51:04,929
[Michael] Forces a break, and I'm not sure
Gunther was expecting

878
00:51:04,962 --> 00:51:07,897
this type of fight out of Tozawa
here tonight.

879
00:51:07,932 --> 00:51:11,884
[Pat] I love that Otis is a ride or a die.

880
00:51:11,919 --> 00:51:13,687
Saying, "Let's get this dub, Akira."

881
00:51:14,203 --> 00:51:16,507
Same with Maxxine,
Alpha Academy in unison.

882
00:51:17,891 --> 00:51:20,928
Saying,
"Why not tonight for Akira Tozawa?"

883
00:51:20,961 --> 00:51:21,929
Come on!

884
00:51:23,696 --> 00:51:26,750
[Michael] I'm not sure you want to
get into a chop war with Gunther.

885
00:51:27,317 --> 00:51:28,769
Oh, goodness!

886
00:51:29,053 --> 00:51:33,339
[Pat] I feel that's probably why
tonight's not the night, and then that.

887
00:51:33,374 --> 00:51:35,893
[Michael] Well, Tozawa gave us
a little bit of hope, but…

888
00:51:36,944 --> 00:51:38,995
-thanks for coming.
-[crowd] One! Two!

889
00:51:39,046 --> 00:51:40,196
-[Pat] Oh my God.
-[Michael] Well,

890
00:51:40,297 --> 00:51:42,366
Gunther had him beat there,
and listen this…

00:51:42,399 --> 00:51:43,801
[crowd jeering]

892
00:51:43,834 --> 00:51:45,336
[Michael] This is pretty simple.

893
00:51:45,368 --> 00:51:48,806
Gunther just trying to send
a clear statement now,

894
00:51:48,839 --> 00:51:50,057
sleeper locked in.

895
00:51:50,089 --> 00:51:53,810
Tozawa is actually lifted off
the mat here by Gunther.

896
00:51:53,844 --> 00:51:57,314
-Tozawa defenseless, he's faded, he's out.

[Pat] Wait a minute, Otis is powering up.

905
00:52:30,864 --> 00:52:33,283
[Michael] Well, Gunther a couple
of times trying to knock Otis back,

906
00:52:33,350 --> 00:52:35,886
and Otis fired up,
and the champ thinking twice

907
00:52:35,919 --> 00:52:38,272
about getting into it with Otis tonight.

908
00:52:41,024 --> 00:52:43,327
[Pat] Here's another genius play.

909
00:52:43,377 --> 00:52:45,879
[Michael] And now Gunther
from behind going right after Otis

and now putting the big man
in a sleeper hold.

Gunther from behind ambushing Otis.

wants nothing to do

with the yeet man tonight.

and thanks for yeeting, Jey.

Can Dakota Kai do it?

00:54:27,647 --> 00:54:31,317
It all went down last week here
on Monday Night Raw.

Kai and Ivy Nile one-on-one

940
00:54:33,453 --> 00:54:36,839
for an opportunity to take down
Lyra Valkyria here tonight.

941

[Michael] It was a competitive battle
between these two women.

942
00:54:42,779 --> 00:54:44,298
Could have went either way, Pat.

943
00:54:44,330 --> 00:54:46,016
-[crowd gasps]
-[Pat] Absolutely.

944
00:54:47,134 --> 00:54:50,988
[Michael] But in the end, as Dakota Kai
was looking to put Ivy Nile away,

945
00:54:51,053 --> 00:54:53,022
she did with the GTK.

946
00:54:53,373 --> 00:54:57,027
And Kai becomes the number one contender
for the championship.

for a huge opportunity here tonight.

[Michael] I can't hit any notes.
I'm toned deaf.

[Pat] So am I, brother. So am I.

966
00:56:29,670 --> 00:56:33,807
As I sing off key, our champ is confident
for a good reason.

967
00:56:44,183 --> 00:56:48,254
[Michael] Third time these two have met
one-on-one here in WWE.

968
00:56:48,288 --> 00:56:52,075
The first time was last May, Saudi Arabia,
Queen of the Ring tournament.

969
00:56:52,875 --> 00:56:57,598
The lead-up to that, Lyra Valkyria
knocking off Dakota Kai

970
00:56:57,631 --> 00:56:59,750
in the first round of that tournament.

971
00:57:00,634 --> 00:57:02,752
And then back in mid-January,

of the inaugural tournament.

-[bell ringing]
-…on that night as well.

975
00:57:12,062 --> 00:57:14,748
[Michael] So, Dakota Kai hopes
the third time is the charm

976
00:57:14,781 --> 00:57:16,649
and she can knock off Lyra here tonight.

977
00:57:16,683 --> 00:57:19,269
There's an old adage in football
that it's hard to beat teams

978
00:57:19,303 --> 00:57:22,071
three times in one season.
Is it the same case here?

979
00:57:23,223 --> 00:57:24,223
[Pat] Yeah.

980
00:57:24,457 --> 00:57:26,509
I mean, there's also some stats
that counter those things.

981
00:57:26,542 --> 00:57:27,995
You know, numbers go a funny way.

982
00:57:28,028 --> 00:57:30,413
Normally a team can have
a team's number as well.

983
00:57:30,931 --> 00:57:32,482
And then you start
looking around at divisions,

984
00:57:32,515 --> 00:57:34,750
one team normally stinks more
than the others.

985
00:57:35,519 --> 00:57:36,720
[Michael] Great analysis, Pat.

986
00:57:36,752 --> 00:57:38,254
-And here's Lyra Valkyria--
-[Pat] Thank you.

00:57:41,223 --> 00:57:43,327
[Pat] What I'm saying is,
you can win all the time,

989
00:57:43,359 --> 00:57:45,095
and I think that's what
Lyra's gonna do a lot of.

990
00:57:45,127 --> 00:57:47,681
But Dakota Kai
could change it all tonight.

991
00:57:48,531 --> 00:57:49,982
[Michael] But does it get in your head?

992
00:57:50,017 --> 00:57:53,437
Like I said before, Dakota's never won
a singles championship.

993
00:57:53,470 --> 00:57:57,024
And Lyra got caught by Dakota.
Champ could be in trouble here.

994
00:57:57,057 --> 00:58:00,077
Does it get in your head
the longer this goes?

995
00:58:00,109 --> 00:58:03,029
[Pat] Yeah, I think the longer it goes,
the more it starts to weigh.

996
00:58:03,062 --> 00:58:05,682
Obviously, I think every athlete
has gone through it.

997
00:58:06,249 --> 00:58:07,884
Will I be the one that'll show up?

998
00:58:08,134 --> 00:58:09,853
And you disappoint yourself
a couple times.

999
00:58:09,886 --> 00:58:11,721
Can you still have confidence and faith?

1000
00:58:12,138 --> 00:58:14,658
That you can get to the top, Dakota Kai.

1001
00:58:14,691 --> 00:58:17,160
[Michael] Valkyria now,
Dakota Kai looking to counter.

1002
00:58:17,361 --> 00:58:20,529
Shots to the kidney now,
down goes Valkyria on the apron.

1003
00:58:21,781 --> 00:58:23,366
[Pat] That was a hard shot
on the apron there,

1004
00:58:23,399 --> 00:58:26,336
and now Dakota Kai setting up for a big--
And Kai now with a cannonball

1005
00:58:26,370 --> 00:58:27,471
takes out the champ.

1006
00:58:28,788 --> 00:58:29,772
[Pat] Oh man!

1007
00:58:29,806 --> 00:58:32,676
-That's what I'm talking about! Come on!
-[Pat] A little exercise.

1008
00:58:38,515 --> 00:58:42,536
[Michael] There's 12,259 here tonight

1009
00:58:42,569 --> 00:58:45,605
at the Heritage Bank Center
in Cincinnati, Ohio

1010
00:58:46,106 --> 00:58:50,027
for the final Monday Night Raw
before Saturday's Elimination Chamber

1011
00:58:50,060 --> 00:58:51,211
in Toronto.

1012
00:58:51,243 --> 00:58:53,113
This is an Intercontinental
Championship match.

1013
00:58:53,145 --> 00:58:56,033
Dakota Kai,
the number one contender, in control,

1014
00:58:56,066 --> 00:58:59,069
the Champion, Lyra Valkyria,
who's trying to fight out of it.

1015
00:58:59,586 --> 00:59:02,772
[Pat] And from what I know
about the people of this state of Ohio,

1016
00:59:03,490 --> 00:59:05,776
they're loving this fight
that we got right now

1017
00:59:05,808 --> 00:59:07,810
for the Intercontinental Championship.

1018
00:59:08,377 --> 00:59:10,480
[Michael]
Lyra with tremendous core strength,

1019
00:59:10,846 --> 00:59:13,482
bringing herself back up
to the second rope.

1020
00:59:24,044 --> 00:59:25,178
[Pat] Wait a minute.

1021
00:59:25,611 --> 00:59:29,415
[Michael] Lyra Valkyrie, vertical suplex
into a superplex from the top.

1022
00:59:30,884 --> 00:59:34,620
And both women are down,
Lyra, the champion, hurt as well.

1023
00:59:35,821 --> 00:59:37,808
[Pat] I think that one settled in there.

1024
00:59:37,841 --> 00:59:41,261
She took a big shot
to the back as well on the fall.

1025
00:59:41,294 --> 00:59:43,846
[Michael]
Yeah, high risk maneuver, both women down.

1026
00:59:43,879 --> 00:59:45,147
[Kai groaning]

1027
00:59:45,182 --> 00:59:48,218
-[Pat] A delayed superplex.
-[Michael] For 42 days,

1028
00:59:48,250 --> 00:59:52,939
Lyra Valkyrie has been the first ever
Intercontinental Champion.

1029
00:59:52,973 --> 00:59:56,192
Her first title defense tonight,
will that reign continue?

1030
00:59:57,794 --> 01:00:00,881
Dakota Kai of Damage CTRL
fighting back again.

1031
01:00:00,913 --> 01:00:05,102
Her cohort, her teammate,
Iyo Sky with a massive match next week

1032
01:00:05,134 --> 01:00:07,921
on Raw against Rhea Ripley
for the women's world title.

1033
01:00:08,805 --> 01:00:13,727
Oh! Dakota caught her with a kick.
Lyra's in trouble. Dakota Kai now.

1034
01:00:14,227 --> 01:00:15,796
Uh-oh, Lyra slips through.

1035
01:00:15,828 --> 01:00:17,413
-Shoulders down for the win.
-[crowd] One, two…

1036
01:00:17,446 --> 01:00:19,850
-[Michael] Dakota reverses it.
-[crowd] One, two…

1037
01:00:19,883 --> 01:00:21,917
-One, two…
-[Michael] Back and forth we go.

1038
01:00:22,419 --> 01:00:24,904
Shoulders down again, this time.
notice how Dakota…

1039
01:00:24,937 --> 01:00:26,239
[Pat] Oh!

1040
01:00:26,740 --> 01:00:30,644
[Michael] …changed her weight that time,
but Lyra bridged out at least momentarily.

1041
01:00:30,676 --> 01:00:32,828
Almost had her,
bridges out again this time.

1042
01:00:34,897 --> 01:00:38,484
Dakota looking for a backslide
on the champ. Lyra trying to counter.

1043
01:00:39,569 --> 01:00:41,988
Great sequence here
between champ and challenger.

1044
01:00:42,756 --> 01:00:45,859
Now, it's Lyra Valkyrie with a backslide.
Dakota rolls through.

1045
01:00:46,792 --> 01:00:50,462
Double leg takedown,
jackknife cover for the win and the title.

1046
01:00:50,730 --> 01:00:53,482
Oh! And Lyra barely at two and a half.

1047
01:00:53,850 --> 01:00:55,852
[Pat] That might have been two
and seven-eighths, Cole.

1048
01:00:56,136 --> 01:00:57,587
The power to get up.

1049
01:00:58,270 --> 01:01:01,140
[Michael] And now,
up and down goes Dakota Kai,

1050
01:01:01,174 --> 01:01:05,145
stacking her up is Lyra,
and a kick-out at two.

1051
01:01:05,694 --> 01:01:07,614
[Pat] These have been close.

1052
01:01:09,381 --> 01:01:12,636
[Michael] Pretty incredible wrestling here
by both of these women.

1053
01:01:16,439 --> 01:01:19,926
[crowd chanting "This is awesome"]

1054
01:01:20,527 --> 01:01:22,127
[Pat] It is.

1055
01:01:22,162 --> 01:01:24,397
-[crowd gasping]
-[Michael] Indeed it is. Oh goodness!

1056
01:01:25,182 --> 01:01:26,165
[screams]

1057
01:01:28,702 --> 01:01:31,937
[Pat] Dakota with another massive boot.

1058
01:01:32,672 --> 01:01:35,575
[Michael]
And now Dakota Kai, over the top!

1059
01:01:36,125 --> 01:01:40,330
Cover now for the win,
off a Kairopractor, and a kick-out.

1060
01:01:41,932 --> 01:01:44,334
By Valkyria, somehow surviving.

1061
01:01:46,685 --> 01:01:49,890
[Pat] Backbreaking destroyer
is the only way you could describe that.

1062
01:01:50,323 --> 01:01:52,024
[Michael]
I described it as the Kairopractor.

1063
01:01:52,058 --> 01:01:53,542
[Pat] Yeah, but I'm saying
that's what it is though.

1064
01:01:53,577 --> 01:01:56,162
It is devastating. I mean, it is…

1065
01:01:57,346 --> 01:01:59,115
I thought that was it for our champ.

1066
01:01:59,149 --> 01:02:00,082
[Michael] Oh! And…

1067
01:02:00,667 --> 01:02:02,618
Dakota Kai with a kick to Valkyria.

1068
01:02:06,356 --> 01:02:07,457
Both women now.

1069
01:02:09,759 --> 01:02:12,696
Man, this has been
as 50-50 as you can get.

1070
01:02:12,729 --> 01:02:13,629
[Pat] Absolutely.

1071
01:02:14,029 --> 01:02:16,732
[Michael] Lyra now with Dakota
though up on her shoulders.

1072
01:02:16,765 --> 01:02:18,285
Valkyria looking for the win!

1073
01:02:18,634 --> 01:02:21,171
-Here's the cover! Hook of the leg!
-[crowd] One! Two!

1074
01:02:21,203 --> 01:02:22,555
-Three!
-[Michael] Off Nightwing!

1075
01:02:22,589 --> 01:02:24,290
-[bell ringing]
-[Michael] Valkyria retains!

1076
01:02:24,323 --> 01:02:25,508
["Triumph" playing]

1077
01:02:25,542 --> 01:02:29,361
[Alicia] Here is your winner, and still

1078
01:02:29,395 --> 01:02:35,402
the Women's Intercontinental Champion,

1079
01:02:35,435 --> 01:02:39,623
Lyra Valkyria!

1080
01:02:39,656 --> 01:02:41,841
[crowd cheering]

1081
01:02:41,875 --> 01:02:46,062
[Michael] Lyra Valkyria
in a hellacious battle tonight

1082
01:02:46,096 --> 01:02:49,065
against the very proud Dakota Kai.

1083
01:02:49,098 --> 01:02:51,917
What a match
for the Intercontinental Championship.

1084
01:02:53,419 --> 01:02:55,171
[Pat] Game respect game right there.

1085
01:02:55,205 --> 01:02:58,258
[Michael] Great show of respect
by these two women.

1086
01:02:58,290 --> 01:03:02,261
Valkyria, you said it before, Pat,
she may be a champion for a long time,

1087
01:03:02,294 --> 01:03:06,466
a tremendous ton of talent, learns more
and more each, and every week.

1088
01:03:06,499 --> 01:03:09,102
Valkyria, once again, victorious here.

1089
01:03:09,368 --> 01:03:14,457
On Monday Night Raw-- And that is Ivy Nile
driving Dakota into the barricade.

1090
01:03:14,524 --> 01:03:15,725
Lyra turn around.

1091
01:03:15,759 --> 01:03:17,377
-[Pat] She doesn't know!
-[Michael] Lyra turn around.

1092
01:03:17,410 --> 01:03:22,966
Ivy Nile now attacking Valkyria
with a release German suplex.

1093
01:03:22,999 --> 01:03:27,687
And The Pitbull of American Made,
taking out the Champion.

1094
01:03:27,721 --> 01:03:30,223
-[crowd booing]
-[Pat] She had no ide--

1095
01:03:31,991 --> 01:03:34,377
-[Michael] And the power of Nile.
-[crowd gasping]

1096
01:03:36,046 --> 01:03:37,614
[crowd booing]

1097
01:03:37,647 --> 01:03:40,350
[Michael]
It cannot get any clearer than that.

1098
01:03:40,767 --> 01:03:43,687
Nile wants
the Intercontinental Championship.

1099
01:03:48,258 --> 01:03:50,225
-["Triumph" playing]
-[inaudible]

1100
01:03:58,551 --> 01:04:02,305
Speaking about relationships
that have evolved over the years,

1101
01:04:02,339 --> 01:04:08,444
there may be no relationship quite like
that of Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn.

1102
01:04:08,477 --> 01:04:10,497
-Oh yeah.
-Over the better part of two decades,

1103
01:04:10,529 --> 01:04:13,500
they've been the best of friends.
They've been bitter enemies.

1104
01:04:14,100 --> 01:04:18,504
But now they've reached a point
where they have to battle in a match

1105
01:04:18,538 --> 01:04:21,107
that is unsanctioned by WWE.

1106
01:04:23,475 --> 01:04:24,894
[dramatic music playing]

1107
01:04:24,928 --> 01:04:30,116
Just thinking about the history
between Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens.

1108
01:04:30,884 --> 01:04:35,372
There are no other two guys
whose names have been tied to each other

1109
01:04:35,654 --> 01:04:37,589
for their entire careers like this.

1110
01:04:39,526 --> 01:04:43,113
In a story that long, there's obviously
gonna be a lot of betrayals.

1111
01:04:44,214 --> 01:04:45,999
[crowd gasping]

1112
01:04:47,133 --> 01:04:51,354
[Zayn] There's obviously gonna be
a lot of forgiving and forgetting.

1113
01:04:52,788 --> 01:04:58,461
But unfortunately, there's no forgiving
and there's no forgetting this time.

1114
01:04:58,727 --> 01:05:00,180
[crowd gasping]

1115
01:05:00,212 --> 01:05:03,415
[Zayn] You tried to end my career,

1116
01:05:03,450 --> 01:05:06,403
and I'm not gonna pretend
my neck is 100%, it's not.

1117
01:05:06,435 --> 01:05:10,857
But I know what I've got in the tank
and I have got enough for a fight.

1118
01:05:10,906 --> 01:05:12,207
I can't sanction it.

1119
01:05:12,741 --> 01:05:18,013
It could be the very last match
in the career of Sami Zayn.

1120
01:05:18,897 --> 01:05:22,419
-Give me this damn match!
-[crowd cheering]

1121
01:05:22,452 --> 01:05:24,888
[Pearce] In Toronto,
at Elimination Chamber,

1122
01:05:24,921 --> 01:05:28,991
it will be Kevin Owens,
one-on-one with Sami Zayn.

1123
01:05:29,609 --> 01:05:33,296
It's not official. It's unsanctioned.

1124
01:05:33,663 --> 01:05:34,763
[crowd cheering]

1125
01:05:34,931 --> 01:05:39,702
[Michael] No disqualifications.
No count outs. No rules.

1126
01:05:39,736 --> 01:05:43,573
The referee is only there
to record the pinfall or submission.

1127
01:05:43,807 --> 01:05:48,294
WWE is not liable for anything
these two men do to each other.

1128
01:05:49,044 --> 01:05:51,448
The level of carnage
in Elimination Chamber

1129
01:05:51,531 --> 01:05:54,484
will be career-threatening if not ending.

1130
01:05:55,051 --> 01:05:59,522
Limited only by the depths and depravity
of their own twisted imaginations.

1131
01:05:59,873 --> 01:06:03,026
You wanna end my career,
which will hurt my family, by the way.

1132
01:06:03,509 --> 01:06:05,160
What about your family, eh?

1133
01:06:05,194 --> 01:06:07,596
Do they know
what you're about to put them through?

1134
01:06:08,298 --> 01:06:12,268
[Michael] This Saturday in Toronto,
Sami Zayn versus Kevin Owens.

1135
01:06:12,801 --> 01:06:14,337
And it's unsanctioned.

1136
01:06:16,705 --> 01:06:18,374
[music concludes]

1137
01:06:19,174 --> 01:06:21,493
Sami, thanks for taking the time.
I appreciate it.

1138
01:06:21,528 --> 01:06:22,745
I'm gonna get right into it.

1139
01:06:22,779 --> 01:06:27,933
You know, we all know that you and Kevin
have a long up and down history together.

1140
01:06:27,966 --> 01:06:32,337
But I think it's safe to say
KO shocked the entire WWE Universe

1141
01:06:32,372 --> 01:06:34,741
when he crossed
a very serious line on Friday,

1142
01:06:34,774 --> 01:06:36,593
and brought your family into it.

1143
01:06:36,625 --> 01:06:38,328
I mean,
you were just telling me off camera

1144
01:06:38,361 --> 01:06:42,966
that something else happened this week.
[hesitates] I hate to put you on the spot,

1145
01:06:42,999 --> 01:06:47,587
but would you be willing
to share with us what happened?

1146
01:06:47,620 --> 01:06:49,205
[crowd chattering in distance]

[breathes deeply] Yeah, um…

1148
01:06:53,926 --> 01:06:58,881
You know, I, uh, actually went over
to Kevin's house myself.

1149
01:07:00,433 --> 01:07:05,837
And, uh, no one was home,
but his mother was in town, visiting.

1150
01:07:05,872 --> 01:07:09,008
And, uh, she saw me
and she came out and she said, "Hey."

1151
01:07:09,609 --> 01:07:13,011
And we got to talking and we caught up
a little bit. [clicks tongue]

1152
01:07:13,046 --> 01:07:16,165
And it was great to see her, you know.
She was in good health and good spirits.

1153
01:07:16,198 --> 01:07:19,785
And, uh… I got home that night.

1154
01:07:23,239 --> 01:07:24,991
I was totally ashamed of myself.

1155
01:07:26,692 --> 01:07:28,778
And I couldn't look myself in the mirror.

1156
01:07:29,611 --> 01:07:30,830
[clicks tongue]

1157
01:07:30,863 --> 01:07:36,035
'Cause I just didn't recognize this person
who would go to his house.

1158
01:07:36,069 --> 01:07:38,705
[hesitates] I don't even know
what my intentions were,

1159
01:07:38,738 --> 01:07:41,441
but I'm telling you
they weren't good intentions, okay?

1160
01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:45,361
And, um, you know,
for all that Kevin and I have been through

1161
01:07:45,395 --> 01:07:49,582
over the years, family,
that kind of stuff's never been involved.

1162
01:07:51,167 --> 01:07:54,236
I don't recognize myself.
I don't recognize him.

1163
01:07:55,904 --> 01:07:58,308
And, uh, you know, one of the questions
I'm getting asked a lot,

1164
01:07:58,341 --> 01:08:00,893
and you asked me this before,
is like, "How is it different this time?"

1165
01:08:00,926 --> 01:08:03,413
"You guys have gone down
this road so many times together."

1166
01:08:03,446 --> 01:08:05,265
"How is it different?"
This is how it's different.

1167
01:08:05,765 --> 01:08:07,966
'Cause I don't know
what I'm capable of right now.

1168
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:10,002
And I don't know
what he's capable of right now.

1169
01:08:10,035 --> 01:08:13,189
'Cause I don't think
either of us are quite ourselves or quite…

1170
01:08:15,191 --> 01:08:17,961
in a headspace
that either of us recognize right now.

1171
01:08:20,078 --> 01:08:22,599
So, I understand a lot of people
are looking forward to this match.

1172
01:08:22,631 --> 01:08:26,618
It's unsanctioned, and I understand
why WWE didn't sanction this match.

1173
01:08:26,653 --> 01:08:30,089
Maybe they view, uh,
me and my neck as a liability,

1174
01:08:30,122 --> 01:08:32,925
and I understand that, 'cause truthfully,
my neck is not--

1175
01:08:33,593 --> 01:08:35,877
You know, it's not
where I want it to be yet.

1176
01:08:35,912 --> 01:08:36,845
Um…

1177
01:08:37,630 --> 01:08:40,366
But I think they should be
real concerned about what I do to Kevin.

1178
01:08:42,201 --> 01:08:44,002
'Cause, Kevin, I'm telling you right now,

1179
01:08:44,886 --> 01:08:48,558
this is gonna be a war,
this is going to be insane.

it's going to be a bad time.

it's gonna be a bad time for me,

he had a match-up against AJ Styles,

1226
01:11:29,769 --> 01:11:31,721
AJ would knock off Dominik

-with a Styles Clash.
-[crowd counting]

1228
01:11:33,790 --> 01:11:36,358
[Michael] Now, remember,
Bron Breakker had been saying all along

1229
01:11:36,425 --> 01:11:40,346
that he wanted
to send AJ Styles into retirement.

1230
01:11:40,596 --> 01:11:42,365
He tried to do that last week,

1231
01:11:42,398 --> 01:11:47,702
but AJ Styles would sidestep
and Dominik would run into a spear!

1232
01:11:50,223 --> 01:11:54,126
And then AJ Styles
would embarrass Bron Breakker.

01:15:38,483 --> 01:15:39,735
[speaks indistinctly]

1304
01:15:39,769 --> 01:15:41,620
[Pat] This is it with Dominik Mysterio,

1305
01:15:41,654 --> 01:15:43,172
with The Judgment Day by his side,

1306
01:15:43,205 --> 01:15:46,008
even though they seem to be a little bit
out of sorts at the moment,

1307
01:15:46,041 --> 01:15:48,626
if you listen to what they're
talking about backstage at the clubhouse.

1308
01:15:48,661 --> 01:15:50,463
[Michael] Dominik says
somebody else should join.

1309
01:15:50,496 --> 01:15:52,130
Bálor said, "We've got this."

1310
01:15:52,164 --> 01:15:56,786
Liv and Raquel with a tag title match
later on tonight against Bianca and Naomi,

1311
01:15:56,818 --> 01:15:58,454
but I think they may fear for--

1312
01:15:58,487 --> 01:16:00,806
Liv may be fearing
for her boyfriend's life here because--

1313
01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:02,590
And again, Carlito getting involved.

1314
01:16:02,625 --> 01:16:04,960
The official, I mean,
what's he supposed to do?

1315
01:16:04,994 --> 01:16:07,146
And Dominik now
with a dropkick from behind.

1316
01:16:07,179 --> 01:16:10,382
619, time for Dominik!

1317
01:16:11,099 --> 01:16:14,403
-[Michael] Connecting!
-[Pat] This is all Carlito's fault!

1318
01:16:15,454 --> 01:16:17,606
He interrupted.
He and Finn are celebrating,

1319
01:16:17,639 --> 01:16:20,960
and Dominik Mysterio is looking
to disrespect a legend in the sky.

1320
01:16:20,992 --> 01:16:23,112
[Michael] And Bron Breakker though,
not allowing Dominik

1321
01:16:23,144 --> 01:16:26,215
to get in any position
for a frog splash here.

1322
01:16:26,298 --> 01:16:29,285
Dom trying to fight back with all he can.

1323
01:16:29,552 --> 01:16:31,704
Breakker's really fighting
an uphill battle here,

1324
01:16:31,737 --> 01:16:34,473
three on one against Dominik,
Carlito, and Bálor.

1325
01:16:34,507 --> 01:16:36,392
[Pat] That's how Judgement Day operates.

1326
01:16:36,442 --> 01:16:38,844
Dominik Mysterio knows that,
and operates accordingly.

1327
01:16:38,878 --> 01:16:41,013
[Michael] Dominik now,
steps down to the second rope.

1328
01:16:41,045 --> 01:16:43,148
-Bron Breakker on the first rope.
-[Pat] Wait a minute!

1329
01:16:43,182 --> 01:16:45,050
That's the Frankensteiner!

[Pat] Oh, Dom.

1333
01:16:53,675 --> 01:16:55,928
[Michael] And Bálor now
and Carlito getting involved,

1334
01:16:55,961 --> 01:16:58,114
-dragging Breakker outside the ring.
-[bell ringing]

1335
01:16:58,147 --> 01:17:02,451
[Michael] And now the assault underway,
the champion driven into the steps.

1336
01:17:02,485 --> 01:17:05,670
The official, Rod Zapata,
is gonna call for the bell.

1337
01:17:05,704 --> 01:17:11,343
Mysterio will be disqualified.
But the beat down is on for Judgment Day.

1338
01:17:11,376 --> 01:17:13,963
[Pat] It felt like
it was only a matter of time.

1339
01:17:14,213 --> 01:17:16,514
Once The Judgment Day
had eyes on Bron Breakker,

1340
01:17:16,549 --> 01:17:20,318
they knew there was no way
Dom was gonna have any sort of chance.

1341
01:17:20,820 --> 01:17:22,705
[Michael] Bálor now directing traffic.

1342
01:17:23,956 --> 01:17:25,724
[Pat] This Bron Breakker is special.

1343
01:17:26,108 --> 01:17:29,211
[Michael] And Bálor outside the ring here.

1344
01:17:29,245 --> 01:17:32,447
[Pat] What's Finn Bálor doing?
He's been yelling at people tonight.

1345
01:17:33,382 --> 01:17:35,416
[Michael] Mysterio and Carlito.

1346
01:17:35,451 --> 01:17:37,068
Dominik now…

1347
01:17:37,102 --> 01:17:39,155
-Sent up over the top rope.
-[Pat] Oh.

1348
01:17:40,039 --> 01:17:42,491
[Michael] Oh, Carly! Spear!

1349
01:17:43,858 --> 01:17:45,376
Now that was cool!

1350
01:17:46,027 --> 01:17:47,830
[Pat] No, that was badass!

1351
01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:51,200
[crowd barking]

1352
01:17:51,267 --> 01:17:52,934
[Breakker] Move!

1353
01:17:54,170 --> 01:17:56,722
[Pat] And Finn Bálor
just went face-to-face…

1354
01:17:58,374 --> 01:18:01,277
-[Michael] Smart move, Finn!
-[Pat] …with the dog!

1355
01:18:01,309 --> 01:18:03,646
["Breakk And Destroy" playing]

1356
01:18:03,679 --> 01:18:05,281
[Michael] I venture to say that…

1357
01:18:07,449 --> 01:18:09,869
Judgment Day is gonna rue the day…

1358
01:18:10,952 --> 01:18:17,476
that they got involved
in Bron Breakker's business here tonight.

1359
01:18:18,626 --> 01:18:21,580
[Pat] Bron Breakker is unstoppable.

1360
01:18:21,614 --> 01:18:24,066
[Michael] Yeah, Breakker,
the Intercontinental Champion.

1361
01:18:25,251 --> 01:18:27,603
I think he would have
knocked off Dominik pretty quickly tonight

1362
01:18:27,635 --> 01:18:29,554
if it wasn't for The Judgment Day.

1363
01:18:29,588 --> 01:18:31,040
I mean, there was multiple interruptions,

1364
01:18:31,072 --> 01:18:32,840
and then obviously at the end,
there was a full distraction.

1365
01:18:32,875 --> 01:18:35,461
In the end, Bron Breakker standing,
and that's why this guy… [imitates whoosh]

1366

…the man, Frankensteiner, all of it.

that I can remember
in my nearly 30 years here in WWE.

1451

There's no doubt that "The Final Boss,"

The Rock, is passionate and obsessed
with WWE and everything about it.

1453
01:24:05,974 --> 01:24:07,643
The fact now
that he's on the board of directors

1454
01:24:07,675 --> 01:24:09,878
and he wants this place
to be so successful.

1455
01:24:10,712 --> 01:24:13,565
But he gave Cody Rhodes a lot of things
to think about, and…

1456
01:24:14,833 --> 01:24:17,635

1468

What does it mean
to ask for one man's soul?

1469
01:25:27,938 --> 01:25:30,842
I know that's rather abstract phrasing,

1470
01:25:30,876 --> 01:25:36,048
but having grown up in this business,
I think I can read between the lines

1471
01:25:36,081 --> 01:25:43,054
and understand the offer
that "The Final Boss," The Rock…

1472
01:25:46,558 --> 01:25:47,976
has made me.

1473
01:25:49,928 --> 01:25:51,563
It is certainly

for me to make sure I don't lie to you.

1475

I have never lied to you.
I am not going to start lying to you now.

1476

But I do need you to know,
as I am standing here,

I am not a team of one.

This decision that I am faced with,

1482
01:26:27,182 --> 01:26:30,951
this decision that I have to make
at Elimination Chamber…

1483
01:26:32,187 --> 01:26:35,040
it does not just affect me alone.

They still haven't scraped Raquel

1789
01:46:18,755 --> 01:46:22,242
up out of the timekeepers' area,
I don't believe. And Liv Morgan is--

1790
01:46:23,110 --> 01:46:24,894
[Pat] They all got attacked early.

1791
01:46:24,929 --> 01:46:26,931
[Michael] Going through hell right now
against the tag champs

1792
01:46:26,964 --> 01:46:28,415
and Liv trying to fight back.

1793
01:46:29,049 --> 01:46:31,785
[Pat] Once again, there's nobody to tag
if she was to somehow--

1794
01:46:31,818 --> 01:46:34,088
-[Michael] Oh, and Bianca Belair.
-[Pat] Holy!

1795
01:46:34,688 --> 01:46:36,590
[Michael] Liv may be knocked out
after that.

1796
01:46:36,624 --> 01:46:38,709
[Pat] Just a straight right to the chest.

1797
01:46:38,959 --> 01:46:41,712
[Michael] Well, there's Raquel
back into the mix.

1798
01:46:41,745 --> 01:46:43,429
Official never saw her get involved.

1799
01:46:43,514 --> 01:46:46,599
Bianca taken out,
tag made, and here comes Raquel.

1800
01:46:47,500 --> 01:46:49,036
Oh, the powerhouse…

1801
01:46:49,519 --> 01:46:51,989
[Pat] This is what Raquel could do
literally all night.

1802
01:46:52,022 --> 01:46:53,490
…of The Judgment Day.

1803
01:46:53,523 --> 01:46:56,744
And now sends Bianca Belair
into the barricade.

1804
01:46:56,777 --> 01:46:58,512
Champs may be in trouble.

1805
01:46:58,545 --> 01:47:00,981
Liv and Raquel looking
to win the tag titles

1806
01:47:01,014 --> 01:47:04,168
-for a historic third time.
-[taunts in Spanish]

1807
01:47:05,952 --> 01:47:07,554
[Michael] It is our main event
here tonight

1808
01:47:07,588 --> 01:47:10,324
in front of 12,259 in Cincinnati.

1809
01:47:11,342 --> 01:47:15,512
Tag Team Championship, Bianca Belair
makes a tag to her partner Naomi.

1810
01:47:16,196 --> 01:47:20,634
Belair and Naomi against Raquel Rodriguez
and Liv Morgan of Judgment Day.

1811
01:47:20,834 --> 01:47:22,736
[Pat] Naomi trying
to get Raquel off her feet,

1812
01:47:22,769 --> 01:47:24,888
that's gonna be a tall task
and she does.

1813
01:47:25,739 --> 01:47:27,840
[Michael] Yeah,
the uber-athletic Naomi now,

1814
01:47:28,424 --> 01:47:30,027
plants Raquel Rodriguez.

1815
01:47:30,294 --> 01:47:33,797
Liv Morgan tries to get involved
and Naomi stops her in her tracks.

1816
01:47:33,831 --> 01:47:36,549
-[Pat] Tornado bulldog into a--
-[Michael] Oh! And a big leg drop.

1817
01:47:38,201 --> 01:47:39,719
[crowd cheering]

1818
01:47:39,753 --> 01:47:42,790
[Pat] The glow is being felt
by The Judgment Day.

1819
01:47:44,124 --> 01:47:47,478
[Michael] Naomi lifted out
to the apron by Raquel,

1820
01:47:47,510 --> 01:47:49,596
well delivered shoulder to the midsection.

1821
01:47:50,297 --> 01:47:52,650
Off the-- Oh! My goodness,
taking Raquel out,

1822
01:47:52,683 --> 01:47:55,402
that could be it for the win
and to retain.

1823
01:47:55,436 --> 01:47:57,471
-Raquel kicks out at two.
-[Pat] Wow.

1824
01:47:58,989 --> 01:48:00,523
[Michael] We were talking
about this earlier, Pat,

1825
01:48:00,557 --> 01:48:02,893
the pressure that's on the champs tonight.

1826
01:48:03,576 --> 01:48:05,295
-We take another look--
-[Pat] Absolutely, look at this.

1827
01:48:05,329 --> 01:48:06,897
Springboard over the top.

1828
01:48:06,929 --> 01:48:09,549
[Michael] One of the most athletic women
in WWE today.

1829
01:48:09,683 --> 01:48:15,822
Again, it's all about the tag team titles,
Naomi and Bianca Belair hold.

1830
01:48:16,223 --> 01:48:17,741
It's also about payback for…

1831
01:48:18,858 --> 01:48:20,544
the attack on Jade Cargill.

1832
01:48:21,495 --> 01:48:24,098
Great cross body,
roll through by Raquel.

1833
01:48:24,130 --> 01:48:27,233
And there's the power of Rodriguez.

1834
01:48:28,969 --> 01:48:30,788
[Pat] Naomi was in complete control.

1835
01:48:31,088 --> 01:48:33,273
[Michael] Still may be,
cheap shot out of Morgan.

1836
01:48:34,340 --> 01:48:35,342
[Pat] Yeah, maybe.

1837
01:48:35,709 --> 01:48:38,312
[Michael] Naomi with a kick
right to the back of the head.

1838
01:48:39,797 --> 01:48:42,165
[Pat] Set up Raquel there
for that kick to the face.

1839
01:48:44,518 --> 01:48:47,471
[Michael] And Naomi up over the top
with that blockbuster.

1840
01:48:47,504 --> 01:48:49,005
Tag. Here's Belair.

1841
01:48:49,540 --> 01:48:51,942
[Pat] Got enough of Raquel
to get her off balance.

1842
01:48:51,974 --> 01:48:55,079
She's on the ground, Bianca Belair!

1843
01:48:55,963 --> 01:48:58,831
-[Michael] From the top rope!
-[crowd cheering]

1844
01:48:58,866 --> 01:49:01,117
-[Michael] Cover for the win.
-[crowd counting]

1845
01:49:01,151 --> 01:49:04,138
Off the floor,
kip and a kick-out by Raquel.

1846
01:49:06,273 --> 01:49:07,875
What a move by Belair.

1847
01:49:09,660 --> 01:49:10,661
[Pat] Yes.

1848
01:49:11,260 --> 01:49:15,115
[Michael] The fact that Raquel
was able to kick out, pretty incredible.

1849
01:49:15,648 --> 01:49:17,851
[Pat] I don't know
how Raquel kicked out of that.

1850
01:49:19,486 --> 01:49:21,722
[Michael] Neither does Bianca.
Let's have another look.

1851
01:49:21,755 --> 01:49:23,639
[Pat] We're talking about one
and a half, around,

1852
01:49:23,674 --> 01:49:25,192
with a knee to the jaw…

1853
01:49:27,094 --> 01:49:28,312
included.

1854
01:49:28,344 --> 01:49:30,097
[Michael] And again, the tag champs.

1855
01:49:30,130 --> 01:49:32,465
-Oh! And, Raquel now with a kick.
-[crowd gasping]

1856
01:49:32,833 --> 01:49:36,769
[Michael] Belair trying to take advantage,
lifting Raquel up into position.

1857
01:49:38,755 --> 01:49:40,407
Looking for the KOD!

1858
01:49:41,575 --> 01:49:43,677
And Raquel, I believe she raked the eyes.

1859
01:49:44,445 --> 01:49:49,266
Tag made by Morgan.
Bianca's blinded. Morgan's legal.

1860
01:49:50,000 --> 01:49:53,504
-Liv Morgan. Oh my God!
-[crowd gasping]

1861
01:49:55,205 --> 01:49:58,308
-A wicked Codebreaker, kick-out by Belair.
-[crowd counting, cheering]

1862
01:49:58,342 --> 01:49:59,509
[Pat] How?

1863
01:49:59,826 --> 01:50:01,577
[Morgan shouting indistinctly]

1864
01:50:03,714 --> 01:50:06,900
[Michael] Watch this. That Codebreaker.

1865
01:50:09,135 --> 01:50:11,088
-One! Two!
-[crowd counting]

1866
01:50:11,121 --> 01:50:13,206
[Michael]
And almost winning the tag titles.

1867
01:50:14,208 --> 01:50:18,695
Morgan will be in the Chamber
with Naomi and Bianca, and three others.

1868
01:50:18,728 --> 01:50:21,115
Going for Oblivion
and trying to win the tag team gold.

1869
01:50:21,148 --> 01:50:24,468
Bianca Belair, tag made by Naomi,
kick now to Morgan.

1870
01:50:26,036 --> 01:50:27,070
Things are heating up

1871
01:50:27,103 --> 01:50:30,023
for the Women's Tag Team Championship
on the line.

1872
01:50:30,057 --> 01:50:32,860
-Double team coming from the champs.
-[crowd cheering]

1873
01:50:32,942 --> 01:50:34,344
[Michael] And look who's here!

1874
01:50:35,279 --> 01:50:37,464
[Pat] That "Dirty" Dom!

1875
01:50:37,898 --> 01:50:40,884
[Michael] Morgan's boyfriend,
Dominik Mysterio

1876
01:50:40,968 --> 01:50:43,053
allows Raquel to get involved.

1877
01:50:43,085 --> 01:50:47,391
And, Raquel now, not the legal woman,
taking everybody out.

1878
01:50:48,592 --> 01:50:52,312
Official never saw it.
Liv Morgan, Oblivion.

1879
01:50:52,396 --> 01:50:54,364
-[crowd cheering]
-[Michael] Cover!

1880
01:50:54,398 --> 01:50:56,232
[crowd counting, cheering]

1881
01:50:56,266 --> 01:50:58,535
[Michael] And Bianca breaks things up!

1882
01:51:00,554 --> 01:51:04,590
[Pat] Looks like it's the fastest,
the EST of the WWE,

1883
01:51:04,625 --> 01:51:08,027
keeps the title around her waist!

1884
01:51:08,795 --> 01:51:12,348
[Michael] And, Bianca now runs
into a boot by Raquel-- Spear!

1885
01:51:12,382 --> 01:51:14,518
[crowd cheering]

1886
01:51:18,304 --> 01:51:21,224
[Michael] Everybody down,
critical moment in this matchup

1887
01:51:21,575 --> 01:51:23,492
for the women's tag team titles.

1888
01:51:23,527 --> 01:51:26,280
Dominik thought
he helped Liv and Raquel win,

1889
01:51:26,313 --> 01:51:27,281
but it may have backfired.

1890
01:51:27,313 --> 01:51:30,166
[crowd applauding,
chanting "This is awesome"]

1891
01:51:30,284 --> 01:51:31,351
[Pat] If Judgment Day loses,

1892
01:51:31,384 --> 01:51:34,554
you have to blame Dominik Mysterio
for sure.

1893
01:51:34,588 --> 01:51:38,791
-[crowd chanting "This is awesome"]
-[Pat] Yes, it is.

1894
01:51:44,364 --> 01:51:47,851
[Michael] Twelve thousand,
two fifty-nine in Cincinnati

1895
01:51:47,884 --> 01:51:50,337
showing their respect
to these four women,

1896
01:51:51,355 --> 01:51:53,723
battling out for the tag team titles.

1897
01:51:55,107 --> 01:51:59,196
Naomi, face first.
Tag made, here comes Belair,

1898
01:51:59,228 --> 01:52:02,031
looking to retain
the tag team gold, Bianca now.

1899
01:52:04,134 --> 01:52:07,688
-With Liv up. Liv, now roll through…
-[Pat] Inside cradle.

1900
01:52:08,338 --> 01:52:10,440
…and a kick-out by Belair, almost had her.

1901
01:52:13,210 --> 01:52:16,346
Oh, and Bianca blasting Raquel,

1902
01:52:16,380 --> 01:52:18,982
roll up by Morgan,
kick-out again by Belair.

1903
01:52:19,849 --> 01:52:21,418
Bianca, now steps through,

1904
01:52:21,451 --> 01:52:26,523
gonna lift Liv Morgan up into position
for the KOD on Liv Morgan.

1905
01:52:26,889 --> 01:52:30,393
-Kiss of Death by Belair to retain!
-[crowd cheering]

1906
01:52:30,427 --> 01:52:32,012
[Michael] Cover, hook of the leg!

1907
01:52:32,045 --> 01:52:33,864
Raquel Rodriguez!

1908
01:52:37,651 --> 01:52:39,753
-And now, Naomi.
-[Pat] Getting thrown out.

1909
01:52:39,786 --> 01:52:41,021
[Michael] Sent out to the apron.

1910
01:52:41,554 --> 01:52:42,906
[speaks indistinctly]

1911
01:52:44,790 --> 01:52:46,777
[Michael] Raquel planted on the apron.

1912
01:52:48,577 --> 01:52:50,697
Belair, now gonna tag in Naomi.

1913
01:52:53,517 --> 01:52:57,154
[Pat] The champs are rolling.
They can sense another dub.

1914
01:52:57,353 --> 01:52:58,455
[Michael] Double team.

1915
01:53:00,123 --> 01:53:03,576
Coming from the Tag Team Champions
to put Liv Morgan away.

1916
01:53:04,177 --> 01:53:05,529
Liv down and out.

1917
01:53:07,313 --> 01:53:08,632
[Pat] She's damn near lifeless
at this point.

1918
01:53:08,665 --> 01:53:11,934
[Michael] Cover by Naomi,
and Dominik saving the match.

1919
01:53:11,969 --> 01:53:16,540
-Look at Dominik, ref! Look at Dominik!
-[Pat] It's this dirtbag right here!

1920
01:53:16,572 --> 01:53:18,325
-[inaudible]
-[crowd booing]

1921
01:53:18,357 --> 01:53:21,044
[Michael] Dominik just saved
the match for Morgan.

1922
01:53:23,480 --> 01:53:28,468
-And Bianca Belair is pissed off.
-[Pat] As she should be. Kick his a…

1923
01:53:28,785 --> 01:53:30,737
[Michael] And Raquel now, went for Bianca.

1924
01:53:31,888 --> 01:53:35,107
Meanwhile, Belair with Raquel
up on her shoulders.

1925
01:53:35,241 --> 01:53:36,625
-[crowd cheering]
-[Pat] Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

1926
01:53:36,893 --> 01:53:39,913
[Michael] And Rodriguez now,
lifting Bianca up.

1927
01:53:40,547 --> 01:53:43,666
And Raquel sent Belair
right onto our announce table.

1928
01:53:43,900 --> 01:53:45,686
And Belair collapsing.

1929
01:53:47,237 --> 01:53:49,973
Naomi over the top to take out Raquel.

1930
01:53:50,007 --> 01:53:52,709
-[Pat] Lands on her feet!
-[Michael] Bianca's down and out.

1931
01:53:52,742 --> 01:53:54,544
Naomi back in the ring.

1932
01:53:54,577 --> 01:53:58,648
Morgan looking for Oblivion.
Naomi countering!

1933
01:54:01,351 --> 01:54:02,451
[shrieks]

1934
01:54:02,736 --> 01:54:05,639
[Michael] Liv won't lose.
Shoulders are down, is it enough?

1935
01:54:05,889 --> 01:54:08,842
Oh! And a kick-out again,
you gotta be kidding me!

1936
01:54:09,076 --> 01:54:10,293
[Pat] Naomi kicked out!

1937
01:54:10,326 --> 01:54:13,146
Bianca, who's still laid out
under our table.

1938
01:54:14,548 --> 01:54:16,616
[crowd cheering]

1939
01:54:16,650 --> 01:54:22,089
[Michael] Dominik, again up on the apron,
a kick from Naomi to Dominik Mysterio.

[crowd cheering]

1941
01:54:23,572 --> 01:54:27,177
[Michael] Split-Legged Moonsault,
intercepted by Raquel.

1942
01:54:29,379 --> 01:54:32,598
[Pat] It's "Dirty" Dom.
It's Judgement Day.

1943
01:54:33,599 --> 01:54:38,170
-[Michael] This is chaos, cover by Morgan.
-[crowd counting]

1944
01:54:38,205 --> 01:54:39,389
[Michael] Shoulders down!

-[crowd cheering, applauding]
-["Liv Gone Mad" playing]

1947

1948
01:54:46,763 --> 01:54:51,567
