[theme music playing]
[theme music ends]
[narrator] Three men, one goal.
[Triple H] In my world, I do things my way.
[narrator] A rebellion is on the horizon.
[Triple H] In order to succeed, I must overthrow.
[narrator] A Triple Threat match
for the most illustrious title in the world.
Shane McMahon.
[Shane] The People's Champion is laying at our feet.
-[narrator] The Rock. -[Rock] Shane, your role, know it.
Triple H, your mouth, shut it.
[narrator] Triple H.
[Triple H] It's my title, my belt, my championship.
[narrator] Prepare yourself for a mutiny like no other.
And now, WWE Insurrextion.
[crowd cheering]
[fireworks whistling and exploding]
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Earls Court in London is sold out as we welcome you
to Sky Box Office
and World Wrestling Entertainment Insurrextion.
Hello again, everyone, I'm Jim Ross
alongside Jerry "The King" Lawler.
We are at ringside.
And, King, no doubt, a raucous crowd on hand
as the WWE is back in the United Kingdom.
["Turn It Up" playing]
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Uh-oh.
Here we go, J.R.
[bell ringing]
[Chimel] The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall.
Making their way to the ring at a combined weight of 436 pounds,
Scotty 2 Hotty and Grand Master Sexay,
Too Cool.
[Ross] Well, King, we're gonna kick it off with tag team action here,
the charismatic young duo of Scotty 2 Hotty
and Grand Master Sexay
to meet two of The Radicalz, Perry Saturn and Dean Malenko.
But we must address the WWE title situation.
The Rock has been WWE Champion a total of six days now.
[Jerry] Right.
[Ross] But if the McMahon-Helmsley regime have it their way,
The Rock will not be champion but a couple more hours.
[Jerry] Well, history could be made right here in London.
I mean, we could see the WWE title change hands
right here at Insurrextion.
It could be huge, J.R.
And the big question is,
who will be favored within the McMahon-Helmsley regime?
Will it be Triple H, the son-in-law of Mr. McMahon,
or Shane McMahon, the son of the owner of this organization?
[Jerry] Come on, who are you putting your money on?
Oh, I know, The Rock.
I'm going for Triple H or Shane.
["Radicalz" playing]
[Chimel] And their opponents,
at a combined weight of 461 pounds,
Perry Saturn
and the World Wrestling Entertainment Light Heavyweight Champion,
Dean Malenko.
[Ross] Dean Malenko, the Light Heavyweight Champion,
it all happened last Sunday at Backlash
when Malenko defeated Scotty 2 Hotty
to retain the tag team-- or the Light Heavyweight title
as we take you back to last Sunday.
Yeah, King, it was a top rope DDT
that proved too much for Scotty 2 Hotty to overcome.
[Jerry] You got that right.
I was amazed that Scotty 2 Hotty was even able to walk out of the ring.
I thought he was finished.
[Ross] Grand Master Sexay has only been back a few days
since undergoing knee surgery and successful knee rehabilitation.
[Jerry] Well, you got to admit, I mean, Too Cool, it--
They're not at a hundred percent, J.R.,
like you said Grand Master Sexay just coming off knee surgery--
and uh-oh, look out, here we go.
[Ross] Saturn and Malenko not wasting any time getting this one underway.
Certainly, The Radicalz came to the WWE en masse in late January
and they had made an impact.
Look at the nice powerslam by Grand Master Sexay on Perry Saturn.
[Jerry] I could think-- I think you could see right there the--
probably the strategy of The Radicalz.
I think they wanna try to-- I think they wanna try to zero in
on Grand Master Sexay in those--
well, it's less than a hundred percent knees.
[Ross] Too Cool now.
[Jerry] Oh, they could still dance, though.
[Ross] With the advantage here as Saturn isolated in the ring.
Now his partner Dean Malenko up on the apron and we're ready to go.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] All eyes on Earls Court here tonight as the WWE Championship
will be decided in a Triple Threat match
a little bit later tonight as The Rock defends the newly won
World Wrestling Entertainment title against both Shane McMahon and Triple H.
[Jerry] Oh, look at this.
[Ross] Scotty 2 Hotty showing great agility here.
And Saturn…
[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] A rather unique individual is Saturn, to say the very least.
All those tattoos and that demeanor
and now the Light Heavyweight Champion is in the ring.
Dean Malenko, a Man of 1,000 Holds, as he is called.
[Jerry] Well, you know, you're talking about Malenko and Saturn.
This past week on SmackDown,
there seemed to be a little friction between the two.
[Ross] Yeah, you know, King, some say that's because Saturn
has yet to taste WWE gold.
-[Jerry] Look at this. -[Ross] Side Russian leg sweep.
Nice move by Malenko, taking down Scotty 2 Hotty.
[Jerry] Think there could be a little jealousy there, J.R.?
[Ross] I think you're right.
Certainly, uh, nothing that a title wouldn't take care of perhaps.
Another exchange as Malenko makes the tag to Saturn.
And the double team is on. Oh.
Tandem elbows and a cheap shot on Grand Master Sexay.
[Jerry] Uh-oh, look out, here comes Grand Master.
[Ross] Grand Master looking to retaliate.
While he does, referee's back is turned,
and an obvious low blow on Scotty 2 Hotty.
[Jerry] Boy, this crowd here is pumped, J.R.
[Ross] And here's the cover, first one of the contest and a near fall.
What?
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Grand Master Sexay after the low blow,
certainly would be well served to make a tag,
and Saturn again knocking Grand Master off the apron.
[Jerry] Oh, look at this.
Grand Master's temper is actually hurting the team here.
[Ross] And the double team. Saturn quickly got out of the ring.
-And a near fall. -[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Scotty 2 Hotty
not blowing his chance and going home,
trying to fight back from that low blow.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] Malenko, oh, looking for the suplex.
-[Jerry] Look out. -[Ross] Oh, and there's a roll-up.
-There's a roll-up. -[Jerry] Hey, wait.
[Ross] And Saturn pulling the referee out of the ring.
[Jerry] Well, that's one way to stop a count.
[Ross] That might have been a three.
And here comes Grand Master Sexay.
[Jerry] He's had enough.
[Ross] And Referee Jim Korderas
forcing Grand Master back out on the apron.
[Jerry] Uh-oh, look at this. See, here you go.
[Ross] Wait a minute, there's a roll-up.
Some dissension in the ranks as we documented,
a holdover from SmackDown.
[Jerry] Saturn almost cost himself a victory here, as well as Malenko.
[Ross] Scotty 2 Hotty has been isolated thus far
this entire matchup without a tag to Grand Master Sexay.
[Jerry] Oh, boy.
[Ross] And there's the sunset flip.
And another near fall and look how quickly Malenko is up
with a clothesline, knocking down Scotty 2 Hotty.
[Jerry] I'm telling you you're right, J.R., there is dissension here.
Ordinarily, Saturn would have been in the ring to stop that count,
but he didn't.
He let Malenko kick out on his own.
We saw it first on SmackDown,
the friction continuing here tonight at Insurrextion.
[Ross] And that's a tough place to land up there in the turnbuckle.
[Jerry] Uh-oh.
[Ross] One can only imagine what that feels like.
Scotty 2 Hotty, is he gonna make the tag or go for more offense?
-I would suggest a tag. -[Jerry] Oh.
[Ross] Scotty showing what a gamer he is.
That's Scotty.
[Jerry] Remember what happened last time you were up there, Scotty.
Oh, he hit it.
[Ross] Superplex by Scotty 2 Hotty
driving the wind out of the sails of Dean Malenko.
It's Scotty 2 Hotty now.
[crowd clapping rhythmically]
[Ross] Oh, look at this great crowd,
absolutely sold out this venue.
Earls Court here in London sold out in only four hours.
[Jerry] Grand Master Sexay has everyone up on their feet here.
Saturn looking for a tag.
[Ross] Scotty 2 Hotty trying to navigate
-to his corner as -[Jerry] He got it.
[Ross] And Malenko does make the exchange.
And here comes Grand Master Sexay.
Grand Master Sexay with those right hands and a scoop slam,
make that a pair of scoop slams on The Radicalz.
[Jerry] Oh, man.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Grand Master Sexay showing absolutely no ill effects at all
from that knee surgery.
-[Ross] Certainly isn't. -[Jerry] He's cooking.
Oh, now he's doing it. Look out!
[Ross] Double clothesline.
There's a cover.
And Malenko made sure that Saturn didn't get pinned.
And here comes Scotty 2 Hotty, all four men are in the ring now.
And I think it's Saturn and Grand Master, the legal competitors in this contest
at this point in time.
[Jerry] Look out.
Uh-oh, J.R.
[crowd cheering]
-[Ross] You think it's time? -[Jerry] I think it's time.
Check out the look on the face of Scotty 2 Hotty.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] He's fixing to Worm his way into the hearts of London.
O-R-M,
and The Worm.
[Ross] Seventeen thousand seven hundred and sixty-seven on their feet.
[crowd chanting]
[Ross] And a double Worm, a double whammy
-on Malenko and Saturn. -[Jerry] Double Worm?
I don't know if I've ever seen a double Worm.
[Ross] Malenko meeting Grand Master, coming back in the ring.
Here comes Scotty 2 Hotty, he's met by Perry Saturn.
But the advantage certainly is with Too Cool.
[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] An inverted clothesline, Malenko got knocked down
by his own tag team partner.
And that adds insult to injury.
-[Jerry] Oh, look at the hit. -[Ross] Oh, Malenko's head
in the groin area of Saturn.
Grand Master.
[crowd cheering]
-[Jerry] He's gonna fly, J.R. -[Ross] Could be the Hip Hop Drop.
[Jerry] Contact. Whoa!
-[Ross] The Hip Hop Drop. -[crowd] One, two, three!
-[Jerry] Got him. -[bell ringing]
[Ross] And Too Cool go to the pay window.
[Chimel] Here are your winners, Too Cool.
["Turn It Up" playing]
[Ross] Too Cool…
turning it on here.
[Jerry] How do you want paying, guys?
Pictures of the Queen?
That's a little cockney for you there, J.R.
[Ross] I got it.
[Jerry] I've been over here a while, you know.
[Ross] Malenko and-- is somewhat distressed
of the mistakes of Saturn.
-[Jerry] Uh-oh. -[Ross] There may be…
[Jerry] You know, you really can't blame Saturn.
I mean, have you seen his eyes?
[Ross] Malenko shoving Saturn back down.
[Jerry] He may have problems seeing straight sometimes.
-Uh-oh, here we go. -[Ross] Look out.
[Jerry] He's not having any problem seeing Malenko now.
[Ross] Malenko and Saturn, the partners going at it.
Oh, there is no camaraderie here
as Saturn has reached the boiling point
with the Light Heavyweight champion.
[Jerry] So much for The Radicalz.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Oh, look at this.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Saturn attacking Malenko and the four officials here
are trying to separate these two men and Saturn looks like a pit bulldog,
maybe an English Terrier.
[Jerry] Yeah.
[referee] Hey, that's it. Get out of here.
[Ross] Problems here.
Okay. Kat, let me tell you something.
You are going out there and you're gonna show that gal
exactly what you're gonna do tonight. You're gonna show her--
Mae, I've been training so hard, look at this.
Look at that. And look here, what I have been doing.
-Look at you. Whoa, yeah. -Oh, we can do it together, can't we, kid?
We'll tear them up, Grandma, yeah.
Now, let's go get them.
♪ Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker's man ♪
♪ Bake me a cake as fast as you can ♪
♪ Roll it, pat it And mark it with a B ♪

[Ross] And here comes the owner
of the World Wrestling Entertainment, Mr. McMahon,
and maybe we'll get a read on where Mr. McMahon stands tonight.
[Jerry] Vince McMahon in London.
[Ross] As far as the WWE Championship is concerned.
[Jerry] Call the Queen. I bet she wanna knight him.
[Ross] Sir Mr. McMahon?
[Jerry] Sir Vince.
You always call him "sir."
[Ross] Well, sometimes to his face.
[Jerry] Calm down, everyone.
I know you're excited, but-- Hey, hey, hey, listen to this, J.R.
[crowd chanting indistinctly]
I'm sure that many of you Brits
feel that Vince McMahon must be a very disappointed man as of late.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Disappointed?
I'm sure you feel that I must be disappointed
that we have a new WWE Champion, The Rock.
[crowd cheering]
-[Jerry] I think Vince is disappointed. -[Vince] I am.
I admit it, I'm disappointed,
because let's face it.
Had there been a fair one-on-one encounter
between The Rock and Triple H
and sure as I'm standing before you tonight
and breathing the foul air of London…
[Jerry] Oh, foul air.
…I am certain had it been a fair one-on-one encounter,
my son-in-law Triple H would today
still be the World Wrestling Entertainment Champion.
[Ross] What was unfair about Backlash?
[Jerry] I'm sure he'll tell you.
Had it not been for my meddlesome wife, Linda…
-[Jerry] Uh-oh. -[crowd cheering]
Had it not been for my wife
reinstating an ingrate referee by the name of Earl Hebner…
-[Jerry] There you go. -[crowd cheering]
Had it not have been for "Stone Cold" Steve Austin…
[Jerry] What about that, J.R.?
[crowd cheering]
…then I would not have to stand before you
and bear the indignity of that here tonight.
However…
every genius has a plan.
[Jerry] Oh, he's got a plan, J.R.
He's a genius. [chuckles]
It doesn't matter if the genius is General Montgomery.
It doesn't matter if the genius is Napoleon.
It doesn't matter if the genius is Vince McMahon.
-[crowd chanting] Asshole! Asshole! -[Jerry] What a statesman.
[Jerry] I think it matters if the genius is an-- is an…
-What are they chanting, J.R.? -Every genius has a plan,
a backup plan, and a plan after that,
which brings us, of course, to Insurrextion here tonight.
[crowd cheering]
You see, The Rock was hoping that somehow
he could just hang on to the WWE Championship
long enough to make it here to England tonight.
-[Jerry] Just hang on, J.R. -Because The Rock knows
that if in fact he loses the title here in Jolly Old England,
not too many people are really gonna know about it.
That's what he's counting on.
Because let's face it,
nothing consequential or newsworthy ever comes from London, England.
-[crowd chanting indistinctly] -[Jerry] Uh-oh, man.
[Vince] But, you know, Rock, you're wrong,
because, Rock, I promise you--
no, no, no, I guarantee you, Rock,
that the whole world will know after tonight is over,
we have a new World Wrestling Entertainment Champion.
-[crowd booing] -[Jerry] He guaranteed it.
[Ross] That's what Mr. McMahon wants.
And why?
Because tonight there is no Linda McMahon.
-Tonight, there is no Earl Hebner. -[Jerry] Good.
Tonight there is no "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
[crowd booing]
No, no.
In that very ring tonight,
walking from Earls Court live at Insurrextion
will be a new World Wrestling Entertainment Champion
and he will be a McMahon family member.
-["No Chance In Hell" continues] -[Ross] Who's-- what does that mean?
[Jerry] Well, it means it's either gonna be his son Shane
or his son-in-law, Triple H.
[Ross] But Mr. McMahon certainly did not declare
his allegiance to his son Shane or to his son-in-law.
Well, you know, he's a statesman.
I mean, he's like a master politician.
He's riding that fence.
He is gonna wait until the right time but he's got a plan, J.R.
-Believe me, he's a got a plan. -Well, there's no doubt in my mind
that Mr. McMahon doesn't have a great plan.
-[rock music playing] -[Jerry] What do you mean?
[Ross] He hasn't played his hand, whatsoever.
[Jerry] I just wanna tell you I was really disappointed in these fans,
-what they were calling Mr. McMahon. -[bell ringing]
[Chimel] The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
Making his way to the ring from Cobb County, Georgia,
weighing in at 297 pounds, Bull Buchanan.
[Ross] It was certainly Bull Buchanan
who led the way, along with Big Boss Man.
They handcuffed, last month, Kane to the ring
and then there you see Bull Buchanan just shattering Kane's hand.
Kane's hand was shattered into several pieces.
It's still in a cast.
But here tonight without the Big Boss Man,
that monster of a man himself, Bull Buchanan,
must take on one-on-one the Big Red Machine.
[Jerry] You gotta give Bull Buchanan a world of credit.
-["Slow Chemical" playing] -[Jerry] He-- Uh-oh.
-[crowd cheering] -[Jerry] It takes a lot of guts
to face-- to face Kane.
-[explosions] -[Jerry] Oh.
[Ross] Here he comes through hellfire and brimstone.
[Chimel] And his opponent, being accompanied to the ring by Paul Bearer,
he weighs in at 326 pounds, Kane.
[Ross] Kane's mother must have been tall.
[Jerry] You think?
[Ross] Kane is 6'11" tall, 325 pounds.
His opponent Bull Buchanan stands 6'8" tall
and just about 300 pounds.
[Jerry] And what about his father, Paul Bearer?
He's six feet wide, face like a well-kept grave.
[Ross] He'll never make page three of any newspaper in the UK.
[Jerry] Oh, page three.
You reminded me that Kat and Terri are coming up.
Yahoo!
[Ross] Well, I'll tell you what, Mr. McMahon was awfully smooth
not playing his hand.
I got to wonder that-- where Shane and Triple H
stand in this-- in this matchup.
[Jerry] Oh, come on, J.R. Without a doubt each of those guys
wanna be the new WWE Champion.
Oh, here we go.
[Ross] Well, Kane now fighting back, King,
-with that cast on his left hand. -[bell ringing]
Big Red Machine and Bull Buchanan.
Kane has one thing on his mind
and that is retribution here tonight at Insurrextion.
[Jerry] I don't know if Bull made a wise move, you know,
Kane was fixing to make that fire explode out of the ringpost,
but Bull Buchanan stopped him.
[Ross] And Kane not letting Bull get too far away.
Huge uppercut by Kane.
[Jerry] Look out, Bull.
[Ross] Seventeen thousand seven hundred and sixty-seven has sold out…
-[Jerry] Wow. -[Ross] …Earls Court here tonight.
We are happy you're with us on Sky Box Office
as Kane now showing nothing but straight ahead smashmouth offense.
[Jerry] What would you do if you were him, J.R.?
[Ross] Oh, who?
-If I was Bull Buchanan? -[Jerry] Yeah.
[Ross] I'd get the first plane outta here.
-[Jerry] You would? -[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Absolutely.
I mean, the Big Red Machine is and can be as destructive
as anyone has ever been in the World Wrestling Entertainment.
[Jerry] You talk about destructive,
take a look at that hand Kane's sporting
with that cast on it, thanks to Bull Buchanan.
[Ross] Amazing agility, but Kane fighting his way back up.
-[Jerry] Look out. -[Ross] And again the 300-pounder,
Bull Buchanan, showing amazing flexibility.
[Jerry] Man.
[Ross] That could be all for Kane.
That's good-- No.
I'll tell you what, a normal man, but Kane isn't normal,
would not have been able to kick out.
[Jerry] Oh, he's not normal.
-He's the Big Red Machine, right? -[Ross] Absolutely.
[Jerry] Yeah, well, he's having ignition problems right now.
[Ross] Bull Buchanan with those hard body shots, now going upstairs.
Trying to slow down Kane.
[Jerry] Stay on him, Bull.
[Ross] How much of this punishment can-- uh-oh.
Look at Kane.
[Jerry] No, I don't wanna.
[Ross] Kane with that high threshold of pain,
and now Kane fighting back with his right hand,
that's his only hand that's in one piece.
[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] Buchanan knocked down.
Will he be able to get back up?
But perhaps not without some help by Kane
and the doting father, Paul Bearer, looking on.
-[Jerry] Doting father? -[Paul] Come on, Kane.
-Oh, no. -[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] This is bad.
[Ross] Buchanan got caught.
-Oh, my God. -[Jerry] Oh, no.
[Ross] A one-handed chokeslam all the way to hell.
-[Jerry] Got him. -[bell ringing]
-[crowd cheering] -[Ross] And Kane not wasting any time
-against Bull Buchanan. -[Chimel] Here is your winner, Kane.
[Jerry] Oh, look at Paul Bearer, the big salad dodger.
["Slow Chemical" playing]
-[Ross] Salad dodger? -[Jerry] Yeah.
Acts like he did something.
[Ross] He's lost a lot of weight.
[Jerry] Turn around, he'll find it.
-[explosions] -[Jerry] Oh, there it is.
He's not gonna deny Kane that.
[Ross] The Big Red Machine victorious
here tonight at WWE Insurrextion.
But still we do not know where Mr. McMahon leans.
Is it toward his own son Shane
or is it toward his son-in-law, Triple H,
in the WWE title matchup?
It really, uh, it really makes me feel good
the way your dad kind of, you know,
I mean he has all that confidence in me
that I'm gonna regain the World Wrestling Entertainment Championship tonight,
but it really makes me feel good
how he puts me over as being part of the family, you know,
a McMahon family member.
-Mm-hmm. -It's great.
What's that mean?
What? Nothing.
No, really?
-What do you mean? -What? No.
I just mean I think he meant you.
What do you mean you think he meant me?
-[Jerry] What did he mean? -[rock music playing]
[Jerry] Could've been Shane.
[Ross] We are live here in London at Earls Court,
Insurrextion on the air.
A beautiful Saturday night here in the UK,
and again thanks for being with us on Sky Box Office.
[Jerry] I can't believe it's not raining.
[Ross] What did Mr. McMahon mean?
-I don't think Stephanie's even sure. -["Are You Ready?" playing]
-[crowd cheering] -[Jerry] Uh-oh.
[Ross] From the Aggression CD, we hear the DX theme.
♪ D-Generation ♪
[Jerry] Whoa, baby.
[Ross] The dangerous Delilah.
-[Jerry] The what? -[Ross] Eloquently evil.
Tori accompanying the Road Dogg to the ring.
[Jerry] Why do you have to make disparaging remarks
about a lovely young lady like Tori?
[Ross] What was disparaging about that? What did I say?
[Jerry] You said she was dangerous and evil.
That's slandering.
It could be held liable in a court of law here in Earls Court, you know,
we're in Earls Court.
Oh, look at that.
[Ross] Although, now she belongs on page three.
[Jerry] Oh, yeah, and four and five.
[Ross] Road Dogg without X-Pac here tonight.
Road Dogg to take on Bradshaw one-on-one.
Cut the music.
-[music fades out] -[crowd cheering]
London, England, welcome to the Dogg House.
[barking]
[Jerry] Come on, bark, J.R.
You see it's me, it's me, it's the D-O-double G,
mobbing once again with the beautiful Tori.
-You see. -[crowd cheering]
Just give me a minute.
I'll soon be done rocking on the mic at Insurrextion.
Now then, I say on that note with nothing else to quote,
two tears in a bucket and if you ain't down with that,
I got two words for you.
[crowd] Suck it.
[Jerry] That's more of that cockney rhyming, J.R.
-[rock music playing] -[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Here come a couple of guys that love to fight.
They love their ale.
[Jerry] You got that right.
[bell ringing]
[Chimel] The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
Making his way to the ring being accompanied by Faarooq,
he weighs in at 305 pounds, one of The Acolytes,
Bradshaw.
[Jerry] These guys probably had a couple of Britney Spears right before the match.
[Ross] Now look out, Bradshaw--
that boy Bradshaw getting right after Road Dogg.
[Jerry] Tori, get out of there.
[Ross] And Bradshaw threatening Tori here,
and it looks like we're gonna be joined by Faarooq.
[Jerry] Hey.
[bell ringing]
[Ross] Faarooq has just joined us here at ringside.
[Faarooq] Yeah, this won't take long.
-This is just a warm-up. -[Jerry] You mean you're not gonna
-talk to us very long or what? -[Faarooq] Oh, no.
Well, this won't take long at all.
[Ross] And what is Bradshaw threatening Tori for, Faarooq?
I don't understand that.
Oh, hold on. What's happening?
[Jerry] Tori, be careful. Faarooq, what are you doing?
[Ross] We may see a Tori sandwich here, between two slices of Acolytes.
[Jerry] Wait a minute. She's a-- Oh, look out.
[Ross] Oh, from behind.
-Oh, Faarooq now hammering the Road Dogg. -[Jerry] Hey. What's going on here?
[Ross] And The Acolytes double teaming the Road Dogg.
[crowd clamoring]
[Jerry] Man, this is like a mugging.
Get out of here.
[Ross] I think-- I think the referee has just thrown Faarooq from ringside.
[Jerry] He's being ejected.
[Ross] Faarooq has been banished.
-[Jerry] He can't believe it. -[Ross] He's been red carded.
[Jerry] Yeah.
You might wanna take the beer scooter home. [laughs]
Oh, yeah.
[Ross] And the Road Dogg getting right back up for this fight.
The Road Dogg will fight the solo Bradshaw.
This should be a knockdown drag-out here.
Could be a slobberknocker before it's all said and done.
[Jerry] Oh, boy. Oh, man.
[Ross] So Faarooq has been banished from ringside
for his extracurricular activities.
There's a cover and a near fall.
[Jerry] Check out how this match started, J.R.
The Double Feature will show you that--
Well, Bradshaw he was wasting no time at all.
And there's-- what do you call her, the eloquently evil Tori?
She wasn't doing anything wrong.
She was being threatened.
[Ross] And Tori interjecting herself
and the result is Faarooq being sent back to the locker room.
Suplex, a float-over and a lateral press got another near fall for Bradshaw.
[screams in pain]
-[Jerry] Oh, man. -[Ross] Bradshaw,
big and rough, The Acolytes Protection Agency
certainly making a name for themselves, selling protection.
[Jerry] For beer money.
-[Ross] Ale. -[Jerry] Oh.
[Ross] Or beer, depends on what continent you're on.
[Jerry] I think these guys have been on a Leo Sayer.
-[Ross] A what? -[Jerry] A Leo Sayer.
Yeah, that's an all-dayer.
Acolytes do that every single day.
[Ross] Bradshaw trying to cave in the ribs of the Road Dogg
with those huge right hands.
Oh, my gosh, what an Irish whip.
To be felt in Dublin, I can tell you a lot of velocity on that whip
by Bradshaw on the Road Dogg.
[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] You know, I think Triple H is as confused as we are
as to where Mr. McMahon stands.
Wait a minute, there's a cover.
And Road Dogg able to get his shoulder up.
In the Triple Threat match for the WWE title.
[Jerry] Don't worry, J.R., when the time's right…
Oh, no, watch this.
This is coming right into your living room.
Look out. Bam!
[Ross] Tremendous whiplash effect,
and there's a backbreaker applied by Bradshaw.
-[Jerry] Don't give up. -[Ross] Submission-- a submission move,
and Road Dogg in a tough position to fight out.
But he does with nothing but straight right hands.
[Jerry] Oh, man. Goodness.
J.R., you're so worried about where Vince McMahon stands,
-believe me. -[Ross] There's a cover, look out.
[Jerry] When the time is right, he'll make his intentions known.
[Ross] Well, I know that,
but I think that's what Triple H is perhaps concerned about.
Maybe Shane McMahon is concerned about it as well.
-Who knows? -[Road Dogg groans]
[Ross] Well, Bradshaw is-- Oh, a hard Irish whip.
Look at the impact, ladies and gentlemen.
This is like a head-on collision here.
Road Dogg's face and Bradshaw's foot.
-[Jerry] Oh, my gosh. -[Ross] There's a DDT.
We're gonna take another look at it right here.
[Jerry] That's an impact for you.
-[Ross] Watch this. -[Road Dogg groans]
[Ross] That will dim your running lights.
This has been a very physical contest thus far.
Road Dogg trying to make a low crawl, gets the tag,
there's a cover, and not enough body-on-body there,
as Bradshaw able to muster enough strength to kick out.
Coming up, the special arm wrestling challenge…
-[Jerry] Oh, baby. -[Ross] …that my esteemed colleague,
-The King, will officiate. -[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] I can't wait.
The Kat and Terri.
Uh-oh, look out.
[Ross] Bradshaw perhaps going for a powerbomb
that was countered to the back body drop,
and a nice dropkick by the Road Dogg taking Bradshaw out of the ring.
-And here comes Bradshaw right back in. -[Jerry] Right back in.
-Oh, man. -[Ross] Bradshaw like a wild bull.
[Jerry] Look at Tori.
She can't believe it.
[Ross] Bradshaw back up.
Boy, these-- Tori with a concerned look on her face,
if you're-- if you ever look at her face.
[Jerry] No, I'm looking at those shorts.
You know, those are called greyhounds.
And I'm not gonna tell you why.
-[Ross] Greyhounds? -[Jerry] Oh, yeah.
[Ross] Stinging lefts and watch that right, Bradshaw,
it may be coming, yes, it is.
-[Jerry] Not too much effect. -[Ross] Bradshaw with his hands down.
Looking for that Clothesline from Hell.
Flying forearm by the Road Dogg taking Bradshaw off the big Texan's feet.
Oh, shuffle and knee drop, will that be enough?
And Road Dogg climbed onboard, but got a two-count.
Road Dogg building some offensive momentum here.
It's hard to sustain with a man like Bradshaw.
-Oh, God. -[Jerry] His head almost came off.
[Ross] That is amazing,
-and Tori kicking at Bradshaw. -[Jerry] Look at Tori.
What is-- oh, no.
-[Ross] And Bradshaw-- -[Jerry] Get away.
-Hey. -[Ross] And there's a roll-up,
that could be all,
and Bradshaw distracted momentarily by Tori on the outside.
Who wouldn't be distracted by her?
[Jerry] Right.
[Ross] Bradshaw looking for another clothesline.
Hey, wait a minute.
Road Dogg checking in.
Oh, pumphandle slam right in the air with Bradshaw.
-Will it-- yes. -[Jerry] Got him.
-[bell ringing] -["Oh You Didn't Know" playing]
[Jerry] He got him, J.R.
-[Ross] The Road Dogg. -[Jerry] Victorious.
Look at Tori.
[Chimel] Here is your winner, the Road Dogg, Jesse James.
[Ross] The Road Dogg victorious here as we go back to Michael Cole,
where the-- a participant in a second in the arm wrestling challenge.
Terri, how you been preparing for the big arm wrestling match
that's coming up next against The Kat?
You know, Michael, I think nothing beats good nutrition.
And WWE Hall of Famer, Fabulous Moolah,
how you been helping the She-Devil get ready?
This girl, I've been working her out every morning and every night.
Hey, look at this bicep.
That's the real She-Devil's arm, you know what I'm saying?
When she goes out there tonight,
that Little Ms. Kitty's gonna wish she had never, ever seen Moolah or Terri.
-[meows] -Let's go, honey, we gotta go.
Bye-bye now.
[crowd clamoring]
[Jerry] Well, you heard that.
Now we're gonna-- we're gonna end all the talking.
We're gonna let the actions speak louder than words.
Are you ready for some puppies and kittens?
-[crowd cheering] -Woo-hoo!
I know I am, J.R.
["Too Much Mustard" playing]
Oh, yeah.
[Ross] Well, this is a tough duty for The King.
[Jerry] Woo-hoo!
[Ross] Accompanied by Mae Young
-is The Kat. -[Jerry] Oh, baby.
Come to papa. Come to papa.
[Ross] Mae may misunderstand that.
[Jerry] J.R., look at that outfit.
[Ross] I'm sure he's talking about The Kat, folks.
Mae Young started out in this…
-[Jerry] Come on, Kat. -[Ross] In this game in 1939, kids.
[Jerry] Katsanova is waiting for you. Come on in here.
[Ross] That was before World War II.
Quite the opposite of The Kat.
[Jerry] Ladies and gentlemen,
accompanied by Mae Young wearing the crown,
here is The Kat.
-[crowd cheering] -[Jerry] Whoo, whoo.
Oh, I wouldn't mind having a few Kat hairs on my furniture.
["P.M.S." playing]
[Ross] And the little She-Devil
being led to the ring by the WWE Hall of Famer The Fabulous Moolah.
[Jerry] And making their way to the ring…
accompanied by WWE Hall of Famer Fabulous Moolah,
it's none other than that horny little She-Devil, Terri.
-Woo-hoo! -[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Kat and Terri are not on the same page obviously.
We have seen quite the altercation between Kat and Terri.
And as far as that's concerned, there's no love lost
between Mae Young and The Fabulous Moolah either.
[Jerry] All right.
Oh, yes.
All right. Now…
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] All right, Terri.
[laughs]
The horny little She-Devil. [laughs]
Okay. Now, listen.
I know, I know there's been-- there's been a lot of animosity between the two of you
and we have finally found a way to settle this once and for all.
Terri, come on over here.
We are gonna find out
who is the better cat or puppy right here
in this arm wrestling challenge.
So, without further ado, ladies, let's get it on right here.
Get ready to lock up.
Let me get down here where I can see all the action.
-[Ross] Yeah. -[Jerry] Whoo!
-Are you ready? -Yeah.
[Jerry] All right. They're getting the grip right now.
Hold on.
Your hands can not release this-- What? What? What is it?
-What's the matter with you? -[Jerry] What?
[Terri] She's got stuff on her hands. Check her hands.
-They're greasy. -[Moolah] She has oil on 'em.
[Jerry] Oil on her hands?
There's nothing wrong with my hands.
-Check her hands. -There is nothing wrong with my hands.
Terri, I got to disagree, there's nothing wrong with her hands.
They're fine. Her hands are fine.
Believe me.
Oh, excuse me. Okay.
Well, her hands are fine.
Come on, let's get going right here.
Lock up. Here we go.
[crowd clamoring]
[Jerry] All right.
They have their grip. When I say go-- What?
-[Ross] What is Terri waiting on? -[Jerry] You need what?
[The Kat] Come on, Jerry, do something.
[Jerry] Well, I'm trying-- Come on.
She's just getting a drink.
-All right. Come on, now. -[Ross] Not the Olympics.
[Jerry] Are you ready? You're ready now?
Okay. Get the grips.
-When I-- -Are you ready now?
When I say three, we will start.
I know you can do it, She-Devil.
One, two--
-Wait. -[Jerry] Terri?
[Ross] Terri thinks this is the World Cup
-or something. -[Jerry] What now?
[Moolah] Wait a minute. She's not ready yet.
[Jerry] Wait a minute. She's gotta do some exercises.
-Whoo! Woo-hoo! -[Ross] Oh, my gosh.
Look at King.
[Jerry] Are you ready now?
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] King, get up.
You're embarrassing all of us.
[chuckles] I think she's ready now.
I know I'm ready.
[crowd clamoring]
-Oh, excuse me. Are you ready? -[Ross laughs]
-[Terri] I'm ready. -Come on.
Okay.
All right.
When I say three-- no, when I say five.
-One. -[Ross] He wants a longer look.
-[Jerry] Two. -Wait, wait, wait.
[Jerry] What? What?
What are you doing?
[Ross] A little one-upmanship here.
-[The Kat] I'm not ready. -What's the matter?
-[The Kat] She's gotta rub my arm. -[Ross] What's good for the She-Devil
is good for The Kat I guess.
[Jerry] No, come on, come on. Come on.
-Let's-- I know, listen -Oh, come on, you did this all night.
Let's go. Lock up, girls. Come on now, we're ready.
On a count of three, get the grip.
-[crowd chanting] We want puppies! -[chuckles] We want--
One, two, three.
-Here we go. -[Ross] Here we go.
Okay.
Come on. Oh, Kat's got-- Oh, Terri has the advantage.
Oh, it's going back the other way.
Terri, you got it, you got it, Terri.
Kat has the advantage. No, wait.
-Oh, we got it here almost. -Oh, no, no, no.
-Okay. Almost, almost. -I got it. I got it.
Oh, hey, wait a minute.
-[The Kat squeals] -[Jerry] Did you see that?
Hey.
-Oh, the winner-- the winner. -[Ross] Oh, The Kat.
["Too Much Mustard" playing]
[Jerry] Here's your winner.
-[Ross] The Kat. -[Jerry] The Kat is the winner.
[Ross] Jerry is…
-Oh, Terri just… -[Jerry] Hey, hey, hey, hey.
[Ross] …pulled The Kat's top.
-Terri just got one-upped from The Kat. -[Jerry] Puppies. Kittens.
[Jerry] Terri, I can't believe you did that.
[Ross] The Kat's looking at Terri.
[Jerry] Are you embarrassed? Oh, no, no.
-No. -[crowd cheering]
[shrieking]
[Ross] The Kat said, "You think you did something?"
[Jerry] The Kat.
[Ross] There were puppies on display there a moment.
Thank God they were released.
The Kat wins the arm wrestle contest.
Well, how do you do?
Nice to meet ya.
[Ross] I think King had a seizure.
Oh, we go from the puppies to some big old cheeks.
[Jerry] Oh, my God.
-[Ross] King, you all right? -[Jerry gasps]
[Ross] Rikishi and it looks Showkishi. And there's Crash Holly.
What's he doing here?
[Jerry] Crash Holly?
Uh-oh.
[Ross] Well, there's The Rock.
The WWE Champion has arrived.
-[crowd cheering] -[rock music playing]
[Ross] This could be the last night The Rock carries that title in here
and we are about ready for tag team action,
Showkishi and Rikishi to take on the damn Dudley Boyz.
[Jerry] J.R., you may have to kickstart my pacemaker.
-[crowd cheering] -["Ollie Stalefish" playing]
[Ross] You did an outstanding job officiating that match I must say, King.
[Jerry] I'll never wash my hand again.
-I got to pet the puppies. -[Ross] You sure did.
You lucky son of a gun.
[bell ringing]
[Chimel] The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall.
Making their way to the ring at a combined weight of 568 pounds,
Bubba Ray and D-Von, The Dudley Boyz.
[Ross] Folks, some exclusive footage from Backlash last Sunday
when the Dudley Boyz took Trish Stratus for an unwelcome ride.
Trish thought she was gonna get away with it, King,
as she tried to kiss her way out of it with Bubba Ray,
but that was not to be.
[Jerry] Well, the people in the United Kingdom gonna be shocked.
Keep your eyes on this.
Trish never thought that would happen.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Bubba Ray got wood and so did Trish Stratus.
[Ross] Bubba Ray and D-Von, the half-brothers from Dudleyville,
which is someplace in the USA that we have yet to determine.
-["U Look Fly Today" playing] -[Ross] And they have a big challenge
-awaiting them. -[crowd cheering]
[Jerry chuckles] Oh.
[Chimel] And their opponents
at a combined weight of 924 pounds,
Showkishi and Rikishi Fatu.
[Ross] Almost a half a ton combined weight between the 7'2",
500-pound Big Show and Rikishi,
who weighed in at a nifty 424.
[Jerry] And, you know, 400 pounds that had to be butt cheeks,
I think-- I think they weigh stuff in stones here in London.
How many stones do you think his butt cheeks weigh?
[Ross] I don't know, King. I got to get-- I need help with the math.
[Jerry] You are a way-- a regular Johnny-No-Star.
[Ross] Johnny-No-Star?
[Ross] Well, the Dudleys have got their work cut out for them here.
But I tell you what,
there's very few teams that have made an impact on the WWE
like Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley,
the former WWE Tag Team Champions.
Some WWE tag team titles will be on the line tonight,
Edge and Christian defending
against the magnificent Hardy Brothers, Matt and Jeff.
[Jerry] Oh, what a match that's gonna be.
-But look at this. -[Ross] And now D-Von…
[bell ringing]
[Ross] …getting the jump on Showkishi.
[Jerry] Showkishi, he just wants to have fun.
[Ross] And you want him to have fun, but you don't want to make him angry.
And D-Von able to free himself from that chokeslam attempt.
Big Show anchored himself, reversed the Irish whip,
and there's a knockdown.
The size 20-something shoe.
I think Big Show wears like a size 22 shoe.
[Jerry] He was riding around Earls Court earlier on a motorcycle
that had two sidecars on it.
One for each butt cheek, look at that.
[Ross] That's a whole lot of butt cheek going on.
[Jerry chuckles]
I think poor D-Von's finding that out right now.
[Ross] King, what kind of strategy would you use
if you were in there with Showkishi and Rikishi?
[Bubba] Hit that big bastard!
[Jerry] I would just keep one thing in mind,
try to keep my face as far away from their stinking butts.
If you get Stinkfaced, it'll change your life.
[Ross] I was expecting what-- Oh, man, what a clothesline.
[Jerry] It don't just mess up your weekend,
it don't just make you have a bad week, it'll change your whole life.
-[crowd cheering] -[Ross] Not just a bad Saturday night.
[Jerry] No, right.
-Ooh. -[Ross] Double headbutt.
Well, the two men that weigh close to one half ton in combined weight.
[Jerry] And you know what I'm talking about Stinkface, right, J.R.?
[Ross] Yeah. I think I know what you're talking about.
[Jerry] I mean, that's when either Rikishi or the Big Show
puts your face in the crack of their butt.
-[Ross] Yeah. -[Jerry] Now, I wanna ask you this--
Ooh, that's bad.
But which Stinkface would be the worst?
[Ross] I don't wanna know that.
[Jerry] One from Rikishi or one from the Showkishi?
[Ross] Rikishi firing back on the Dudleys here.
[Jerry] Hazard a guess. Look at this.
[Ross] I never wanna know firsthand.
Nice drop toe by D-Von.
And Bubba Ray with the elbow to the back of Rikishi's head.
[Jerry] I've heard that Big Show has one in the departure lounge at all times.
[Ross] Will you stop that departure lounge stuff?
[Jerry] That would be serious Stinkface.
[Ross] That's a huge departure lounge,
-if you know what I mean. -[Jerry] You got that right.
[Ross] Right hands by Bubba Ray Dudley.
[Jerry] And I also heard that Rikishi,
just in order to make the Stinkface more effective,
he releases a chocolate hostage right before each match.
[Ross] Will you stop the chocolate hostage line?
-[Jerry] What? -[Ross] I apologize, ladies and gentlemen.
Chocolate hostage.
[Jerry] You know nothing about the Cockney lingo, do you?
-[Ross] Apparently not enough. -[crowd cheering]
[Ross] The Dudleys have Rikishi grounded so to speak,
but here comes the 424-pounder fighting right back up.
A thumb to the eye will slow anybody down.
[Jerry] Look at those dimples.
-[Ross] More dimples than a golf ball. -[Jerry] You got that right.
[Ross] Uh-oh.
Bubba Ray on the outside, got the tag, now he's in legally.
[crowd clamoring]
-[Ross] Oh, man. -[Jerry] Woo-hoo.
[Ross] What a shot there by Bubba Ray Dudley.
[Jerry] You know, if he did that to Rikishi's butt
you could ride the wave.
Oh, man.
[Ross] Well, that may not very effective there,
-the hard head of Rikishi. -[Jerry] Oh, check it out.
Bubba Ray turn around, look out.
[Ross] Oh, what a straight superkick that was.
One, two that could be all--
and D-Von Dudley made sure the three didn't go down.
[Jerry] Very, very close.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] Bubba Ray and D-Von are half-brothers.
They have the same father we are told.
[Jerry] So twin brothers from different mothers?
-[Ross] I didn't say that. -[Jerry] Oh.
[Ross] They're half-brothers actually, as legend goes.
And the double team, The Dudleys, D-Von and Bubba Ray.
-Oh, and a double shoulder-- -[Jerry] Yeah!
[Ross] That's just gonna make that big son of a gun mad by the way.
[Jerry] See? That's what you don't wanna do, Bubba.
-[Ross] Look out. -[Jerry] He's just out here
trying to have a little fun.
[Ross] Now, D-Von Dudley taking advantage of the referee's positioning.
[Jerry] Look at this. Oh.
[Ross] Low blow as D-Von stuck his head
right in the jewels, shall we say, of Rikishi.
[Jerry] Right into the old Jackson Pollocks.
-[Ross] Something like that. -[Jerry] Yeah. Oh.
[Ross] D-Von, the elbow drop.
Rikishi-- oh, that ain't gonna get it done.
[Jerry] No.
[Ross] You see that one coming,
very arrogant like cover by D-Von Dudley on Rikishi.
And The Dudleys with yet another tag.
I got to say one thing about The Dudleys, they have great teamwork.
[Jerry] Look out, ref.
Yeah. There's teamwork for you.
-[Ross] Uh-oh. I think-- -[Jerry] Fun time is over.
[Ross] Oh, yeah. I think that-- I think recess is over.
[Jerry] Call the guard.
[Ross] Man, look at the expression on Showkishi's face,
-sidewalk slam from the 500-pounder. -One, two!
[Ross] And again D-Von Dudley made sure that the three-count did not go down.
[Jerry] If I were The Dudleys, I'd been looking for some sort of table.
It's their only hope-- Oh, hell yes.
[Ross] Dudleys are known for getting the wood
in the form of a table.
[Jerry] Uh-oh, here it comes.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Double-- uh-oh.
Oh, no. Not that.
[Jerry] Their worst fear is double Stinkface.
[Ross] Anything but this.
[Jerry] D-Von get away.
-[Ross] Stinkface. -[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] Can you imagine what it would be like on a gassy night?
[Jerry] Please.
Uh-oh.
[Ross] Bubba Ray from behind, tossing Rikishi on the outside,
leaving D-Von alone with Showkishi.
-[crowd cheering] -[Jerry] Uh-oh.
I told you, they need a table.
[Ross] Will this be the equalizer
that The Dudleys need to put this giant team away?
[Jerry] Look at that.
D-Von is almost history.
[Ross] D-Von setting the table up.
[Jerry] The ref can't get Showkishi to break that.
[Ross] And Bubba Ray back in the ring.
[crowd clamoring]
-[Jerry] Uh-oh. -[Ross] Oh, D-Von.
-[Jerry] Oh, man. -[Ross] Clothesline
by Bubba Ray, knocking down Showkishi, and a cover.
-[Jerry] No. -[Ross] Wow. Look at that power.
-[Jerry] You got that right. -[Ross] A lot of strength by Showkishi.
-[Jerry] Hey, look. -[Ross] It's the tag team champions.
[Jerry] They're doing a run-on, J.R. They're doing one of those run-ons.
-[Ross] Edge and Christian… -[Jerry] Or run-in.
It's a run-in. [laughs]
In the ring, they're in the ring, it's a run-in.
[Ross] The Spear, the referee distracted by Christian.
Edge got the Spear on Bubba Ray.
[crowd cheering]
-[Ross] Edge and Christian… -[Jerry] Uh-oh.
[Ross] …with an unwarranted assist on The Dudleys.
[Jerry] All right, Bubba Ray.
-[Ross] Oh, my God. -[Jerry] Look out.
[Ross] What a chokeslam.
[crowd] One, two, three.
-[bell ringing] -["U Look Fly Today" playing]
[Ross] We got to give some credit to Edge and Christian here.
[Chimel] Here are your winners, Showkishi and Rikishi Fatu.
[Jerry] It was one of those infamous run-ins.
Edge and Christian are becoming famous for those.
[Ross] Hey, what's this?
Here comes Too Cool.
[Jerry] They gonna do a run-in?
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Too Cool, of course.
[Jerry] Wait a minute. I think they're gonna do a dance-in.
[Ross] Oh, the fans here, over 17,000,
and they have 'em up in arms here at Earls Court in London.
[Jerry] Hey, check this out.
They're trying to get-- trying to get Bubba Ray Dudley to stay.
Guys, I don't…
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Wait a minute.
J.R., he may do a table dance, and not the kind you like.
[Ross] I don't know if The Dudleys are in a dancing mood
after getting shafted there by Edge and Christian.
[Jerry] They will be now.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Wait, he's got his own glasses.
Look at this.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Bubba Ray put his glasses on Scotty 2 Hotty.
-[crowd cheering] -[Jerry] They're trading shades.
Wait a minute, J.R. You don't think-- Now, this would be history in the making.
[Ross] Oh, Rikishi got his dancing goggles on now.
[Jerry] Look at this line.
[Ross] Well, this ain't The Rockettes in New York City, I'll tell you.
[Jerry] This is better than The Rockettes.
-["U Look Fly Today" playing] -[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] J.R., did you ever in your wildest dream
think you'd see this?
Look at that.
The Dudleys can get down.
[Ross] The Dudleys, Too Cool, Showkishi, and Rikishi
busting a move in Earls Court.
[Jerry] Look at this.
[laughs]
[Ross] Everybody in a partying mood here on Saturday night on Sky Box Office.
-[crowd chanting] Dudley! Dudley! -[Ross] Wow.
[Jerry] Uh-oh.
I think Bubba Ray wants his glasses back.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Look at this.
Hey.
[Ross] Well, Bubba is getting it on.
[Jerry] Go Bubba! Go Bubba! [laughs]
They're doing the Bump.
[Ross] That's a little bit too much for me.
That's right. That vertical stuff is scary.
Folks, you're just seeing some history in the making.
Kurt Angle, he's been here all week long in the UK.
[upbeat music playing]
[Kurt] This is your Olympic Hero in London, England
to see if they have any of my Three I's.
How are you? Kurt Angle, Olympic Hero.
-Hey. Nadia. -Nice to meet you.
[Kurt] I have a lot of appearances here in London,
including a meeting with Kelly Brook.
[cheering indistinctly]
[Kurt] Nice jacket. Kurt Angle, Olympic Hero.
I'll be there for anyone that needs me
and I know there's a lot of people out there that need me,
especially here in London, England.
[crowd chanting] Angle! Angle! Angle! Angle!
[man] It's true, I've been here since half 7:00 in the morning
all the way from Birmingham,
all our Birmingham and Ilford posse crew,
it's true, it's true.
[crowd clamoring]
[Kurt Angle] Your Olympic Hero has arrived.
[crowd cheering]
Kurt Angle is the greatest Superstar in the WWE.
His Three I's get me through life.
-That's intensity. -Integrity.
And intelligence.
[Kurt] The fans seemed to love me, which they should.
They're definitely following the Three I's tonight.
Kurt Angle, finishing a whirlwind tour
of the United Kingdom over the past couple of days.
And next up for Angle, this man, Chris Benoit,
who this past week on SmackDown lost the Intercontinental Championship
to "Y2J" Chris Jericho,
in what amounted to be a controversial ending.
And tonight, Chris, at Insurrextion you get Kurt Angle.
[Benoit] No, took a cheap shot by Jericho
to beat the greatest technical wrestler in the world.
Well, Michael, we all know what they say about paybacks,
and Chris Jericho has got one coming in the worst way.
Kurt Angle, parading around London,
the medals, the trophies, the accolades, the Three I's. [scoffs]
Life is about timing.
Kurt Angle is in the wrong place at the wrong time
because he will truly find out what being pissed off is all about.
[Ross] Man, this next match up here on Sky Box Office
should be a physically intense contest.
-[Jerry] Wow. -[Ross] Benoit just lost
the Intercontinental title to Chris Jericho this week on SmackDown.
[Jerry] Kurt Angle's got the Three I's, but Benoit had the--
he had a black eye, didn't he?
-[Ross] Certainly did. -[Jerry] That looks horrible.
["Medal" playing]
[Ross] Angle thinks everyone should aspire to be like him here in the UK.
-[Jerry] Well, they love him here. -[Ross chuckles]
I've been in England all week long
and I couldn't help but notice one thing, your children.
-[Jerry] Children? -They're pale, weak,
unhealthy, and uneducated.
-It's true. It's true. -[Jerry] Foul air.
[Jerry] It's true. It's true. Foul air, J.R.
[Ross] It's not true.
And I couldn't understand one word that they were saying.
You talk about poor English.
What they need to do is learn the universal language.
And that is American. It's true.
-[crowd booing] -[Jerry] American.
And just like so many times in the past,
the good ol' US of A has come to your rescue.
Let's not forget World War II when we saved you from the Germans.
-[crowd booing] -[Jerry] Can't forget that.
-[Ross] Stop it. -And tonight is no exception
because your Olympic Hero has arrived,
and what you can learn from him is the Three I's,
intensity, integrity, let's hear it, and intelligence.
[Jerry] Boy, if they had only followed those back during World War II.
[Ross] I think you should be verbally celibate.
-[Jerry] What? -[Ross] In other words, shut up.
["Whatever" playing]
[Jerry] Man, J.R.,
you need to catch up on the Three I's yourself.
[Ross] Here comes an angry, intense man
who said he was, excuse the language, pissed off.
[Jerry] Angry, intense, and right now pretty ugly with that eye.
[Ross] That eye compliments of this week's SmackDown and Chris Jericho.
Benoit in a very competitive mood to say the very least.
[Jerry] You think he can see out of that little slit?
[Ross] Oh, I would think not, King.
You gotta think that Benoit's vision is severely impaired.
[Jerry] I think his thinking is severely impaired to go into a match
with the great American Olympic Hero, Kurt Angle, with one eye.
[Ross] Rumor has it that he has a cracked cheekbone and a broken nose and--
[Jerry] Wait a minute, wait a minute. Wait--
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] What the hell is-- that's Hardcore--
that's the Hardcore Champion, Crash Holly.
[Jerry] He's not even scheduled to be here in London.
Did he stow away in the baggage compartment?
[Ross] I have no idea.
[Jerry chuckles]
Crash, what's up?
Crash Holly, taking a seat here.
-[bell ringing] -Hello, Crash.
J.R., how are you doing? Look, it's as simple as this.
I come here looking to fight an Englishman.
And you know what? I'm having a little trouble finding one.
[Jerry] Huh?
[Ross] Have you challenged any Englishmen?
[Crash] I can't find one in the back.
[Jerry] Have you checked out Westminster Abbey?
[Crash] I looked there too.
[Ross] Well, Chris Benoit and Kurt Angle.
Well, Crash, good luck on your chall-- There's a cover.
Benoit going for a cover here in the early going in this matchup.
[Jerry] That's funny, in the States they dog you everywhere you go,
every time you turn around somebody is jumping on you, Crash.
[Crash] Yeah, but I still got the belt.
-[Jerry] Yeah, but here in-- -[Ross] Now a suplex and there's a cover.
-[Jerry] Here in England, no takers? -[Crash] No takers.
I'm just gonna relax, enjoy this action.
Maybe I'll get lucky tonight at the hotel.
[Ross] Okay. That's enough with that kind of talk here, young man.
[Jerry] He's talking about maybe he'll find a challenger at the hotel.
[Ross] Oh, that? 24/7.
-[Jerry] Yeah. -[Crash] Exactly.
[Ross] I guess you expect the referee to follow you around the hotel tonight.
I don't know if that's gonna happen.
Benoit, the headbutt on the 1996 Olympic gold medal winner, Kurt Angle,
who won in freestyle wrestling for the United States
-in the last Olympic Games. -[Jerry] Ooh, man.
[Ross] Drop toehold by Benoit who hails from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
[Jerry] Look at this.
[Ross] Quite the hangman by Benoit-- or by Angle hanging Benoit to dry.
[Jerry] Speaking of Benoit, hey, Crash, have you seen Big Ben?
[Crash laughs] I seen it.
[Jerry chuckles]
No challengers there either?
[Crash] There's nobody around it.
I'm just gonna enjoy myself watching this.
[Ross] Well, that's good, Crash. We're very proud to have you here.
You certainly have added a lot thus far to the broadcast
and we hope that your challenges are fruitful as it goes forward.
And look at Kurt Angle.
Man, this is-- look at Benoit trying to cover his face up
and that horrendous-looking eye. And again,
the rumor has it that Benoit competing with a cracked cheekbone
and perhaps even a broken nose at the hands of Chris Jericho.
[Jerry] Speaking of cracked cheekbones, J.R.,
-you ever wanna be Hardcore Champion? -[Ross] Absolutely not.
[Jerry] All it takes is a referee and maybe a back hand there to throw.
-[Ross] I'm sorry, Crash. -[Crash] Now J.R., you better--
[Jerry] He's not an Englishman, is he?
-[Crash] Nah, he's not an Englishman. -[Ross] Oklahoman, I'm not interested.
[Jerry] You mean, you've come all this way across the Big Pond
over here to London and you've got nobody?
There are no Englishmen with the guts to challenge you?
[Ross] Oh, my gosh.
There's nobody out here.
I mean, I've been back in the States defending my title, I still got it.
I'm still the Hardcore Champion 24/7.
It's 24/7 here too, and like I said I can't find anybody.
[Ross] So you-- are you sure you've challenged enough Englishmen?
Are you sure you challenged--
There's a lot of tough Englishmen in this country, I'll tell you.
[Jerry] Name one.
He stopped him.
[Crash] J.R., it's not nice to lie.
[Ross] I'm not lying. How about Vinnie Jones?
[Jerry] Yeah, but where is he when you need him?
[Ross] Kurt Angle is in the ring right now where he needs to be to--
trying to get the three on Chris Benoit.
He's fighting back.
Well, I tell you what, a lot of athletes would've raised their hand
and gotten out of this matchup, but not Benoit.
Reverse on the Irish whip.
Oh, what a beautiful overhead belly-to-belly suplex
by the Olympian Kurt Angle, and a cover.
Angle celebrated and maybe wasted that valuable second
he needed to get the three.
-[Jerry] Hey, Crash? -[Crash] Yeah.
[Jerry] Did you see The Kat out here earlier?
-[Crash] I saw The Kat. -[Jerry] You see her Bruce Lees?
-[Crash] Yes. -[Jerry] Oh, baby.
-[Ross] Bruce Lees? -[Jerry] Yeah.
-Unbelievable. Look at this. -[Ross] There's the cover.
And again, Angle, perhaps not enough weight on the upper body of Benoit
on that-- on that exchange.
Benoit, getting up slower and slower here
as Angle's straight right hand to the face,
that battered and bruised face…
-[Jerry] Hit him in the eye, Kurt. -[Ross] …of Chris Benoit.
-[Jerry] Oh. -[Ross] And Angle with a knock down,
Angle right now in control.
-[Jerry] I think Benoit can't see. -[Ross] There's a cover.
And Benoit too close to the ropes, again another…
Come on. He's got the rope.
[Ross] And Mike Chioda there, the referee,
saying that Benoit in the ropes and stopped the count.
[Jerry] The eyes, Kurt, the eyes.
Not the Three I's, his right eye.
[Ross] Sternum first, King.
-Chris Benoit-- -[Jerry] Oh, there you go.
[Ross] Right into your living room there.
[Jerry] And his eye went right into that turnbuckle there.
Can you imagine if Kurt blacked the other eye?
The match would have to be stopped.
-[Ross] And now-- oh, my. -[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Oh, Lord.
[Ross] A beautiful German suplex by Chris Benoit
holding onto the waistlock.
Another suplex. That's a-- that's a pair of them.
[Jerry] Yeah, don't say "German" here in the UK.
-And-- -[Kurt groans]
[Ross] A third one with a bridge, that will be it-- No.
Angle rolled off the shoulders.
[Jerry] That's a good referee.
[Crash] I think, you know, J.R., speaking of eyes,
I've been wondering why you keep calling me Elroy?
[Jerry] Yeah, J.R. Why do you do that?
[Ross] Well, you kind of remind me that cartoon character Elroy Jetson.
[Jerry] Why?
[Ross] Oh, look out, inside cradle.
[Jerry] You don't fly around in a spaceship, do you?
[Ross] Oh, yeah, he doesn't have a dog named Elroy.
He doesn't have a sister named Judy or whatever her name was.
You call him that too, King.
Oh, look out, Crippler Crossface, submission move.
Angle caught in the Crossface by Benoit.
[Jerry] Oh, this is bad, this is real bad.
[Ross] This is extremely bad and painful.
-What do you say, huh? What do you say? -[Jerry] Intensity, intensity, Kurt.
[Ross] Benoit-- Oh, that was a thumb to the eye.
Angle, out of a desperation move…
[Jerry] I think he grabbed the referee's hand
and stuck the referee's thumb in Benoit's bad eye.
That's intelligence for you.
[Ross] Benoit with impaired vision to start with,
that doesn't help things, and Angle missed a big a roundhouse kick.
-[Jerry] Oh, look out. -[Ross] Nice suplex by Chris Benoit.
-And… -[Jerry] Oh, no.
[Ross] Benoit looks like he may be,
yes, going up to the third floor.
[Jerry] He got Angle set up for it.
[Ross] Benoit climbing the ladder.
-[Jerry] Look out. -[Ross] The headbutt, but nobody there,
and Benoit drove his head and face right into the canvas.
Benoit doing exactly what he did not want to do.
Missed that headbutt off the top and look at-- look at Angle,
aggressively both thumbs to the eyes.
I thought Benoit couldn't find him.
-[Jerry] Look out. -[Ross] Benoit, temporarily blinded,
got caught in a reverse fireman carry.
-[Jerry] Got him. Look at that. -[bell ringing]
[Jerry] What a great match.
["Medal" playing]
[Chimel] Here is your winner, Kurt Angle.
[Ross] I'll tell you what, Angle wins the matchup.
You gotta hand it to the gutty Chris Benoit.
-Look at that eye. -[Jerry] I think it's bleeding.
What about it, Crash?
We got the best seats in the house down here, don't we?
[Crash] Yeah, that was a great match. I witnessed a great match.
[Jerry] Check this out.
[Ross] The beginning of the end for Benoit, who missed that headbutt.
And then after the thumb to the eye, it was--
Benoit couldn't find his way, but he found the canvas with a three,
and we take you to Michael Cole.
Well Shane, earlier this evening, your father, Vince McMahon said
that a McMahon family member will leave this building tonight WWE Champion.
Which McMahon family member was he talking about,
you or Triple H, and who do you think your dad's favoring?
Well, first of all it's McMahon family member,
"McMahon" being the keyword there, and it's gonna be unbelievable.
Of course my dad is favoring me. You know, how great will it be?
I'm gonna walk out here in Earls Court in London
the World Wrestling Entertainment Champion.
[crowd clamoring]
[Jerry] Wow.
I smell what Shane's cooking.

["Bulldog" playing]
-[Jerry] Wait a minute. -[crowd cheering]
-Wait a minute. -[Ross] Wait, there's Davey Boy Smith.
[Jerry] Crash, where are you going? Stay with us.
-[Ross] The British Bulldog. -[Jerry] Crash, what are you doing?
[Ross] And he's bringing a referee with him.
[Jerry] Wait, I think Crash got an Englishman.
[Ross] Crash has got-- there's an Englishman for you
-that'll take your challenge. -[Jerry] Look at this.
-[bell ringing] -[Ross] Crash wanted to defend
the Hardcore title against an Englishman.
Here's one that was born and bred in Manchester.
Davey Boy Smith, "The British Bulldog."
[Jerry] He meets all the requirements.
He's from the United Kingdom and he brought a referee with him.
[Ross] Davey Boy Smith, a legend in the United Kingdom,
shocking us all with this sudden return.
But I don't think anyone has foresaw that Crash Holly--
[Jerry] This is gonna be something right here.
[Ross] Oh, my.
-[Jerry] Oh. -[Ross] Went for the suplex.
And that was not on the mats.
This is a Hardcore title match.
And, King, Crash Holly--
[Jerry] He's in big trouble now.
[Ross] He is in big trouble.
[Jerry] He said he went to Westminster Abbey,
he went to Big Ben, he looked for challenges from any Englishman,
but he came to Earls Court and he found him.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Oh, there you go.
[Ross] Crash reversing the Bulldog. In this Hardcore matches,
there are no disqualifications and pinfalls count anywhere.
[Jerry] Bulldog, you're about to find out what you've gotten yourself into here.
-[Ross] Well, Crash getting some, uh… -[Jerry] Ammunition.
[Ross] Ammunition is right, no disqualifications.
[Jerry] What you got there?
Some sort of cable?
[Ross] He's got a strap or something.
[Jerry] Mop handle?
[Ross] And Crash Holly choking The British Bulldog.
[Jerry] Hey, look, he's collaring the Bulldog. [laughs]
[Ross] Crash Holly trying to choke the Bulldog out.
And again, these Hardcore matchups,
this is for the Hardcore title of Crash Holly.
He defends it 24 hours a day, seven days a week,
the only title in the WWE with those stipulations.
[Jerry] Hence the 24/7 label, right?
-[Ross] You got it. -[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] Downstairs goes Crash.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Trying to impale the Bulldog.
[Ross] Weapons are legal.
[Jerry] Crash, what do you want now?
Grab J.R. by the ankles.
[Ross] Easy. Leave J.R.'s ankles out of this.
[Jerry] Hit the Bulldog with J.R.
He could swing you like a baseball bat.
[Ross] He could.
[Jerry] Or like a cricket mallet.
[Ross] Crash Holly setting that chair up in the ring.
Somebody gonna take a seat or what?
[Jerry] The seat Crash was sitting in out here-- oh.
[Jerry] That didn't work.
[Ross] Bulldog drop toehold, Crash face-first into that chair.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Uh-oh, Crash.
Oh.
[Ross] Crash trying to get his feet up to protect himself,
you can't blame him for that.
[Jerry] Could've broken a shin.
[Ross] Oh, downstairs.
Bulldog swinging for the fences there.
I don't know if Bulldog was ever a cricket player growing up, but…
[Jerry] I don't think they play baseball over here, J.R.
[Ross] I think you're right.
[Jerry] He was swinging for the wickets.
How about that?
[Ross] Took a hard grip to that far turnbuckle.
Crash Holly may-- Well, he got his wish.
He came to the UK wanting to defend the tile against an Englishman.
[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] And the Bulldog from Manchester is fulfilling that prophecy.
[Jerry] Be careful what you wish for.
[Ross] Oh, and Bulldog,
he is known for this maneuver right here.
[Jerry] It's gonna be hardcore.
[Ross] Crash Landing.
And Bulldog with a running powerslam.
-[bell ringing] -[Ross] And the Bulldog
has won the Hardcore title.
[Chimel] Here's your winner and the new
World Wrestling Entertainment Hardcore Champion,
The British Bulldog.
[Jerry] We have seen history made here tonight, J.R.
["Bulldog" playing]
[Ross] And if the McMahon-Helmsley regime have their way,
it won't be the only title that changes hands here tonight.
Oh, Elroy got more than he bargained for here
in the returning "British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith.
-What's your name? -What's your name?
-Frank. -Okay.
All right. Frank,
we're the World Wrestling Entertainment Tag Team Champions.
We'll give you an autograph. How's that sound?
Sound good? All right.
There you go.
Okay.
Okay. There we go.
Now, before I get distracted, that'll be five pounds.
-You got five pounds? -Five pounds? Yup?
Okay. There you go, buddy.
-All right. -Great. All right.
There you go. Okay.
-Hey. -[man] Hey, buddy.
-How are you doing? -Can I take a picture?
-Well, hold on-- -[Michael] What are you guys doing?
Hold your horses.
Hold your horses, Michael. Hold your horses.
Hey, Michael, do you want to take a picture?
-Sure. Why not? -Take that.
Here, he's gonna take a picture. Whoa, whoa, there you go, champ.
-[crowd clamoring] -[Ross] This is embarrassing.
[Jerry] Hey, these guys are fan-friendly.
-[Ross] Yeah, for the right price. -[Michael] One, two…
[Ross] Charged that little boy for an autograph.
[Jerry] Man, what a shot.
[Ross] How rude. How rude.
[crowd clamoring]
Guys, what are you guys doing?
Well, no superstars charge fans for autographs and pictures.
-What's going on around here? -[Ross] That's right.
Well, Michael, there's never been superstars
like Edge and Christian here in the World Wrestling Entertainment before,
so that answers your question.
And besides, Michael, just take a look at these people in London,
I don't think they know any better.
God, this is the easiest money we've ever made.
By the way, that's 50/50.
It's all good. It's all good.
["Loaded" playing]
[Jerry] What does Michael Cole mean
no superstars charge for their autographs?
[Ross] Of course they don't.
[Jerry] You don't charge for your autograph?
[Ross] Of course not.
[Jerry] Does that mean I should stop?
[Ross] Well, King.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] I'm embarrassed for the Tag Team Champions.
[Jerry] Five pounds? That's a bargain.
That kid had a-- that little kid had a--
-What was his name, Frank? -[Ross] Yes.
[Jerry] He had a lifelong treasure for five pounds.
[Ross] What an ovation for Matt and Jeff Hardy,
the challengers here tonight for the tag team titles.
Great ovation.
[Jerry] I know you're a big Hardy fan or Hardly.
-[Ross] Hardy. Hardy not Hardly. -[Jerry] Oh, Hardy, Hardy, Hardy.
Well, you know, I'm impressed with them.
♪ You think you know me ♪
[Jerry] But here are your WWE Tag Team Champions.
[Ross] You know, they used to come to the crowd.
Oh, oh, no, no, no. Can't do that anymore, they're too big.
[Jerry] Why? They're taking their… clothes torn off,
their hair pulled out.
-[Ross] They're like rock stars. -[Jerry] Right.
-[Ross] Yeah, right. -[Jerry] They're beautiful people.
Look at them, J.R.
You can't let somebody touch their hair or…
[Ross] Edge must have 30 teeth.
[Jerry] What? Thirty?
At least 30.
[Ross] Tag team titles on the line.
[Jerry] Okay, look.
Here's an opportunity for flash photography.
I understand they've got somebody actually going through the crowd
charging the people for these pictures that are being made now.
[Ross] Well, that's just ludicrous.
[Jerry] Five pounds is a bargain, I'm telling you.
[Ross] If weren't for the fans, we wouldn't even be here tonight.
[Jerry] Yeah, but look who they came to see.
Edge and Christian.
These guys are megastars.
[Ross] The Rock doesn't charge for his autograph, he's the WWE Champion.
[bell ringing]
[Jerry] You may have a point there, but you know what?
The Rock may not be the champion after tonight.
[Ross] Well, you-- that's a better point.
[Jerry] He'll be down at Harrods, begging people to take his autograph.
[crowd clamoring]
[Jerry] Look at these guys.
-[Ross] Rock stars. -[Jerry] Always on the same page.
[Ross] Next thing you know they'll be doing shampoo commercials.
[Jerry] Hey.
[Ross] And then after that, it'll be a conditioner ad.
[Jerry] J.R., you could be their agent.
Those are two good ideas.
[Ross] We saw what happened last week on TV
when they got their facial after getting stinky face.
We saw what kind of men they were when they came out here earlier tonight
and quite frankly, cost the Dudleys,
and I guess some people would say a victory against Showkishi and Rikishi.
[Jerry] You're saying that because somebody gets a facial,
they're not very manly?
I remember when you got a mudpack,
and you looked good too until the mud fell off.
[laughs]
[Ross] Oh, you're a riot. Remind me to laugh tomorrow.
[Jerry] Laugh? Have a Turkish bath.
[Ross] Turkish bath?
Edge and Christian being somewhat hesitant.
Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy know what it's like to be Tag Team Champions.
These two young teams, all four men in their early 20s…
[Jerry] Trash talking, that's what I like.
[Ross] …have built quite a rivalry. Oh, my. That will take the--
that'll make you a little bit more humble there, Christian.
Mr. Christian.
-Oh! -[Ross] Shoulder block by Matt Hardy.
[Jerry] Let's-- you know what? Let's do it right now.
You made some pretty disparaging remarks about our Tag Team Champions,
but let's just make some comparisons.
I mean, Edge and Christian and the Hardlys.
-[Ross] All right. -[Jerry] Let's just start with the hair.
Look at Edge and Christian's hair.
I mean, they look like prize thoroughbred manes.
Look at the hair. And now, let's look at the Hardlys' hair.
-I mean… -[Ross] It's not a beauty contest.
[Jerry] Matt Hardy-- I mean, you know what?
He's got-- he's got-- I can't even tell if it's gray or what.
-[Ross] What a right hand. -[Jerry] But he certainly needs
to change oil in it. And when you're talking about hair,
look over Jeff Hardy's hair.
[Ross] Well, unique, multicolored, yes.
[Jerry] He's got multicolored dandruff.
-Look at that. -[Ross] Multicolored dandruff.
[Jerry] Oh, my gosh.
[Ross] Right now, the multicolored hair Jeff Hardy
got tagged by his brother, Matt.
Look at the Hardys double teaming Christian.
[Jerry] His dandruff's not like yours, J.R.,
because yours is just white.
[Ross] Well, you're such a-- you're really into grooming, aren't you?
You have a little bit too much of a hair fetish for these men.
I'm kinda wondering about that.
[Jerry] My hands are into grooming.
If you don't believe that, ask The Kat.
-Woo-hoo! -[Ross] What a neckbreaker.
Hardys called that Twist of Fate.
And it's caused a very effective offense.
[Jerry] You'd think that Jeff could at least get a shirt that fit.
[Ross] What's wrong with his shirt?
[Jerry] Well…
[Ross] Oh, went for the headscissors that took--
just took Edge out on the outside.
[Jerry] Very dangerous here, very dangerous.
[Ross] Edge trying to get out of harm's way, and more…
-[Jerry] He did. -[Ross] …specifically, Jeff Hardy's way.
Very smart move.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] Well, the success of the Tag Team Champions
seems to be really going to their head.
They seem to be more full of themselves every time we see them.
[Jerry] But their heads are almost perfect.
That hair, those teeth.
Can you blame them, J.R.?
[Ross] Well, they're handsome young lads.
Again, this is-- it's not about beauty.
[Jerry] See, if you-- if you were handsome…
-[Ross] Look at that. Nice teamwork. -[Jerry] …had good-looking hair,
I bet you'd act like that, J.R.
[Ross] You reckon?
Oh, now, look, the Hardys just outsmarted Edge and Christian.
And Christian left himself very open for that move.
Double team.
-[Jerry] Oh, no. -[Ross] Oh, my gosh.
And another-- Oh, roll-up.
And a near fall.
Tag team title is on the line, almost going to the Hardy camp.
[Jerry] You know, speaking of coming through the--
coming through the crowd,
when Edge and Christian came over here to England,
the best looking birds in the country
lined up to get their autographs and to pay them for their pictures.
-The poor Hardys-- -[Ross] Birds, huh?
[Jerry] The poor Hardys were stuck with all the swamp donkeys.
[Ross] Swamp donkeys?
You do a lot of reading.
[Jerry] What do you mean?
-You don't speak Cockney? -[Ross] No, sir.
I'll work on it before we head to Sheffield in December.
[Jerry] There you go.
[Ross] Yeah, tickets go on sale May 27th in Sheffield,
wwe.com will have all your information for you about our next trip to the UK.
And the Hardys now.
Nice offense by Matt and Jeff Hardy.
Here comes Christian, he'll get a-- or Edge, he'll get a taste of it.
[Jerry] And speaking of wwe.com, I get a ton of emails
from here in London and the United Kingdom.
Everybody's online here.
Uh-oh.
Look out. Oh, man.
[Ross] That's beautiful.
Amazing offense, very innovative offense by Matt and Jeff Hardy.
[Jerry] I know you're not talking about Jeff's hair.
[Ross] I'm just not into men's hair like you, all right?
I guess I'm just not as worldly.
And Christian trying to get out of-- out of the ring,
oh, buy himself some time. He didn't buy much.
[Jerry] Look at this.
Oh, man.
[Ross] Wow.
Jeff Hardy got knocked off the apron, out to the security railing,
and that steel railing is not very forgiving.
Look at his hair now.
[Jerry] I'll introduce you to it again. Hey, watch Jeff Hardy fly here.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Jeff Hardy can create some serious hang time.
And this could be it right here,
and Jeff Hardy has reached way down to kick out before the three.
[Jerry] That was close.
[Ross] Now, Edge and Christian make the tag.
Certainly cannot slide in for Christian's athletic ability, teamwork.
[Jerry] Of course not, they're the champions.
[Ross] And there's a cover.
[Jerry] That's why they're the champions. Three.
[Ross] Near fall.
[Matt] Let's go, Hardy.
[Ross] Certainly this young duo from Toronto,
Edge and Christian, have a chance to…
[Jerry] Oh, I heard the Queen actually wanted meet 'em.
[Ross] Two. Another one.
I didn't hear that.
-Are you sure that's true? -[Jerry] Yup.
[Ross] Or is that another one of your royal rumors?
[Jerry] That was good.
[Ross] Nice snapmare takeover to the reverse chinlock.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] It's hard to say Edge and Christian have a chance.
[Jerry] I can start my own little segment, Royal Rumors.
-[Ross] On the internet, even. -[Jerry] Yeah.
[Ross] I think Edge and Christian could be the Tag Team Champions
for a long time if they get past the Hardys here tonight.
And if so, they'd rewrite some tag team history here in the WWE.
They're that good and they're the-- they're that young.
They could have a long career, but…
[Jerry] Yeah, but you know how tough the tag team division is here in the WWE.
Talk about those Dudleys. What about Showkishi and Rikishi?
-[Ross] Too Cool? -[Jerry] Yeah.
Gonna be tough for anybody to stay Tag Team Champions very long.
[Ross] No doubt those damn Dudleys would like a shot at it.
Maybe they'll take on the winners of this matchup somewhere down the road.
And Jeff Hardy tries to make a tag to his brother, Matt.
Oh, uh-oh, and look at Chris.
-[Jerry] Excuse me. -[Ross] Edge--
Oh, that really wasn't very fair.
And now, look at the double team.
Jeff Hardy getting mugged by the tag champions there.
[Jerry] Well, Matt, if you'll get out of the ring and quit distracting the ref--
[Ross] There's no tag.
There was no tag, but the referee says-- I guess it doesn't matter.
[Jerry] Is that what he said?
[Ross] What it looked like he was thinking.
This referee is somewhat follicly challenged.
[Jerry] Yeah, he's got the least hair of everybody in the ring, doesn't he?
-[Ross] And-- oh, my. -[Jerry] Wow.
[Ross] Nice athletic move by Edge powering up, ridging up,
looking for the backslide, that's countered.
-[Jerry] Look at this. -[Ross] Oh, my God.
Look at this roll-up. He got two and a three--
-no, two and half. -[Jerry] Man, oh, man.
[Ross] And quickly, Edge retaliates with a--
perhaps a desperation clothesline, knocking down Jeff Hardy.
[Jerry] I think sometimes the Hardys surprise themselves with things that work.
I mean, they try everything.
[Ross] They are risk-takers, are Matt and Jeff Hardy.
-Daredevils, if you will. -[Jerry] Most of it works.
[Ross] Thrill-seekers in some people's vernacular.
[Jerry] I can't tell you how many members of the Hardys family
that died after saying, "Hey, y'all, watch this."
[Ross] Well, they are from a real area of America, North Carolina.
Not quite as real as where I come from though, you know.
-[Jerry] Got that right. -[Ross] In Oklahoma.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] Royalty rule.
[Jerry laughs] Uh-oh, look at this.
[Ross] Front facelock applied by Christian and again,
Jeff Hardy trying to inch his way to his brother, Matt, to make the tag.
Come on, Jeff. Come on.
[Ross] Really needs to make the tag here, and does.
There's the tag, but wait a minute. Hey, ref--
[Jerry] Can't call what you don't see, J.R.
The ref didn't see that tag.
[Ross] But he didn't see the other tag either.
I don't call this very efficient or consistent officiating, quite frankly.
[Jerry] I think it's consistent.
[Ross] Yeah, consistently bad.
[Jerry] Hey, hey, hey.
That may have been Hebnerized, you know?
Earl Hebner's had a bad influence on all the officials in the WWE.
[Ross] Well, that's your opinion.
Certainly would be concurrent with the opinion of the McMahon-Helmsley regime,
especially Mr. McMahon.
[Jerry] Of course it's my opinion. Who else's opinion would it be?
Everybody's entitled to my opinion.
[Ross] Oh, my. Mid-air collision.
[Jerry] Same idea.
-[Matt] Come on, Jeff. -[Korderas] One.
[Ross] And now, they are getting behind,
I think, the Hardys.
[Jerry] Why would you think that? I think they're behind Edge and Christian.
[Ross] I thought you might say that.
[Jerry] Watch this collision again, J.R. Listen.
[wrestlers grunt]
[Ross] Well, both men driving the air out of the other.
Edge and Christian will retain this title on a count out.
They have the championship advantage here.
Wait a minute. Matt Hardy.
[Jerry] Where's the official when you need him?
[Ross] He was-- Oh, my. Trying to get Christian out of the ring.
Christian got knocked on his can out here.
-[Jerry] Hey, wait. -[Ross] There's the cover.
-Oh, my, how close was that. -[Matt] Come on, Jeff!
[Jerry] We almost had new Tag Team Champions on a cheat.
[Ross] I wouldn't say it was a cheat or not.
[Jerry] Matt Hardy wasn't the legal man and he come dive bombing
off the top rope with an elbow.
[Ross] Don't lose your breath over it.
-[Jerry] I'm excited here. -[Ross] What a move there.
That was a very unique counter.
A couple things you almost get used to seeing by the Hardys,
but they seem to come up with something new every time you see them.
And a tag on both sides.
-Christian and Jeff Hardy. -Come over.
-[Jerry] I think that's Matt Hardy. -[Ross] Oh, Matt Hardy, you're right.
[Jerry] As usual. Oh.
[Ross] Nice neckbreaker, not quite the Twist of Fate.
-[Jerry] Oh, man. -[Ross] And a reverse DDT.
Matt Hardy, lateral press,
-and again referee Korderas… -Now we go here! Huh?
[Ross] …on a long two.
[Jerry] Oh, watch yourself.
[Ross] That's nowhere to land.
[Jerry] See, you'd probably call that a cheat.
[Ross] Oh, my. Look at this.
Oh, it could be. Oh, my goodness.
[Jerry] Whoa, man.
[Ross] That's some extra height and leverage.
That's gotta be all,
and look at Jeff Hardy with a dropkick, stopping the count.
[Jerry] All he did was anger Edge and Christian then.
[Ross] Edge and Christian now double teaming,
Jeff Hardy countered.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Double dropkick in essence.
[Jerry] Unbelievable. Whoa.
[Ross] Edge getting clotheslined on the outside.
The Hardys now have isolated Christian.
The tag team titles are at stake.
-[Jerry] Uh-oh. -[Ross] The challengers.
[Jerry] Looks bad for Edge and Christian.
-[Ross] Oh. -[Jerry] Right on his face.
[Ross] Tandem facebuster.
Lateral press, one, two, three.
Hey, wait.
Christian pulled Matt out of the ring.
Here comes Jeff Hardy with a plancha,
a flying somersault, body block over the top rope.
-[Jerry] Oh, no. -[crowd cheering]
[Ross] And there you see the Twist of Fate.
Hey, wait, Edge just got the ring bell.
-[Jerry] Whoa. -[Ross] Swanton, it's over.
-[Jerry] Ring bell. -[Ross] And Chris…
Edge with the ring bell.
[Jerry] What's the referee doing?
[Ross] He's calling for the bell, but it's in the ring.
[Jerry] There's the bell.
[Ross] I think we've got a disqualification.
[Chimel] The winners of this match in a result of a disqualification,
-the Hardy Boyz. -[Jerry] What?
[Ross] Edge and Christian save their title
by using the ring bell.
We saw the same basic thing in Backlash-- and wait a minute.
-[Jerry] Hey. -[Ross] It's the Dudleys.
-[Jerry] The damn Dudleys. -[Ross] The damn Dudleys are here.
And they have come to get 'em some of Edge and Christian.
[Jerry] Look out, they're rearranging rock star faces, guys.
[Ross] Oh, don't tell me, we may see the 3D here.
[Jerry] We may.
-Here it is. -[Ross] 3D on Christian.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Oh, no.
[Ross] I think Bubba may-- I think he may get wood, King.
-[Jerry] Bubba, please. -[Ross] That's what he was pointing at.
[Jerry] Not here in London.
Not here in Earls Court.
Oh, no.
[Ross] Oh, Woody Bubba Ray…
Oh, that's a thick table.
[Jerry] You got that right.
[Ross] I don't like the looks of this.
And those two rock stars,
unless something drastic happens, may be in for a…
-[Jerry] A rude ride. -[Ross] A bad experience
in good ol' Earls Court.
Christian's been 3D'd.
The tag champions have been disqualified
-against the Hardys. -[Jerry] Oh, no.
Somebody stop this. Referee, where are you?
[Ross] Oh, this is gonna get ugly.
-Look out. -[Jerry] Look out.
[Ross] Oh, good Lord.
Was that the table or Edge's back breaking?
And Bubba with that euphoric look.
[Jerry] Look at him, he's in some sort of trance.
["We're Coming Down" playing]
[Ross] Bubba Ray loves to deliver the wood
along with his half-brother, D-Von,
and there's the results.
[buzzer blaring]
[Jerry] Check this out, J.R.
Speaking of rock star face, look at the terror on the face of Edge.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Listen to this impact, folks.
This is sudden and painful.
[Jerry] Oh, no.
[Ross] The human anatomy going through a wooden table here at Insurrextion.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] You're not supposed to do that.
[Ross] The tag champions are not soon gonna forget the damn Dudleys.
[Jerry] Grab those pieces of table. Do you know how much they'll be worth?
At least 50 pounds each.
[Ross] Well, the Dudleys found their wood,
much to the chagrin of the WWE Tag Team Champions.
But coming up next, it's the Intercontinental Champion
versus the European Champion.
It's Jericho versus Eddie Guerrero.
And it wasn't that long ago
when Chyna was in the corner of Chris Jericho.
Well, Guerrero to challenge Chris Jericho for the European title,
and this one should be a real classic offensive matchup
between two great athletes.
Oh, the drop toehold, and referee Tim White took a header.
Well, Guerrero is in a bad, bad way, and no referee in sight.
Referee Tim White knocked out of the ring.
She's not a referee.
[Jerry] Right, that doesn't count.
Look at this.
[Ross] What in the-- what the hell?
-[Jerry] DDT. -[Ross] What the hell?
Chyna just DDT'd Chris Jericho.
Look at Chyna "The Ninth Wonder of the World"
manhandling the referee.
We have a new European Champion.
It's Eddie Guerrero, and thanks to Chyna,
but why did Chyna stick the knife in the back of Y2J?
[Jerry] It's sinking in now.
Latino Heat, Latino Heat.
I really couldn't resist your Latino Heat.
Poor little Chris, always intimidated
that a woman would show him up, steal his glory.
-[Jerry] Yeah, the mamacita. -[Ross] Here comes Jericho.
-¡Arriba! -[Ross] And Jericho plucks Chyna.
[Jerry] ¡Ándale, ándale!
[Ross] Jericho, he wants revenge in a bad way.
It's far from over between Jericho and Guerrero and Chyna.
♪ Mamacita ♪
["Latino Heat" playing]
-[Jerry] Mamacita. -[Ross] Mamacita.
"The Ninth Wonder of the World" Chyna will be with her man, Eddie Guerrero,
who is the European Champion.
And we understand a coin toss
will be held as soon as both participants
enter the ring to determine whether Guerrero's European title
or Jericho's Intercontinental title
will be at stake in this upcoming matchup.
[bell ringing]
[Chimel] The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
Making his way to the ring being accompanied by Chyna,
he weighs in at 220 pounds.
He's the World Wrestling Entertainment European Champion,
Eddie Guerrero.
[Jerry] He is Latino Heat.
[chuckles]
[Ross] Eddie Guerrero has been more than anxious
and happy to tell us about his ancestors.
And why he is such a beloved, in his own view,
European Champion.
[Jerry chuckles] Very, very famous Spaniard.
[Ross] Pardon me?
[Jerry] I mean his ancestors have been famous throughout Spain.
I mean, for-- it goes all the way back to Christopher Columbus.
[Ross] King, by the way, I hate to tell you this,
but Christopher Columbus was Italian.
-[Jerry] He was? -[Ross] Yes.
[Jerry] What about Don Quixote?
[Ross] So, now Eddie Guerrero is related to Don Quixote.
Okay.
[Jerry] He's from Europe.
[Ross chuckling] Well, all right.
And there is perhaps a difference-maker in any environment that she is in,
Mamacita is extraordinary to say the least.
[Jerry] Oh, he's Latino Heat and she's just hot.
I'd like to take her out for frijoles.
[Ross] Some beans?
-[Jerry] Maybe a burrito? -[Eddie] You know…
I hear that you English people
don't like being a part of Europe.
[Jerry] Huh?
Well, to tell you the truth… [speaks Spanish]
…I don't like being your champion anyway, man.
-[Jerry] Yeah, man. -[Ross] Quit talking like that.
So me and Mamacita been talking,
and Mamacita, the EOC, and myself
think that we're gonna kick you out
because you're giving all of us a bad name.
-[Ross] Oh. -[Jerry] He's more of a Spanish Champion.
How far are we from Spain anyway?
[Ross] I don't know. I don't like what he said.
[speaking Spanish]
[Jerry] ¡Olé!
[speaking Spanish]
[Jerry] Whoa.
-[Ross] What'd she say, King? -[speaking Spanish]
[Jerry laughing] Oh.
-[Ross] What'd she say? -[Jerry] They are so Euro.
For all you English, illiterate people out there
that don't understand
the beautiful language of Spanish,
let me explain it to you, okay?
-[Jerry] Okay. -Okay.
What Mamacita just said is that you homies
don't deserve a champion as great as me.
-[Jerry] Homies? -[crowd booing]
And second of all, you know and I know
that you just can't take my Latino Heat, baby.
-[Jerry] I told you. -[Ross] Is that what she said, King?
[Jerry] Sure, she loved his Latino Heat.
[Ross] You could tell me, you're bilingual.
[Jerry] What?
["Break The Walls Down" playing]
[Ross] Here comes the new Intercontinental Champion.
-[fireworks exploding] -[crowd cheering]
[Chimel] And his opponent, from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada,
weighing in at 227 pounds,
he is the World Wrestling Entertainment Intercontinental Champion,
Chris Jericho.
[Ross] Will ya listen to this ovation for Chris Jericho.
Over 17,000 fans here in Earls Court
on their feet for the new Intercontinental Champion.
He went through hell with Chris Benoit this week on SmackDown
to become the Intercontinental Champion once again.
♪ I'm awaken from a deep sleep, You're all weak ♪
[Jerry] Intercontinental Championship, does that encompass--
Welcome to London is Jericho.
[Jerry] I hate it when he interrupts me.
[crowd cheering]
And Chyna, we didn't understand
that Spanish that you were just speaking,
so let me say something that's gonna be perfectly clear.
-We wish you two jackasses… -[Jerry] What?
…would bloody well piss off.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] He didn't understand because he's a Johnny-No-Star.
[Ross] Johnny-No-Star?
And you talk about the EOC.
We don't need the EOC,
because we're all part of the Y2J.
And that's all that any English Jerichoholic would ever…
-[Ross] Uh-oh. -[crowd cheering]
…ever need again.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Again.
Why doesn't he speak proper English?
[Ross] We have been told that referee Tim White,
ironically enough, the official.
[Chimel] And now, ladies and gentlemen, to determine which championship
will be on the line, referee Tim White will flip a coin.
[Ross] Tim White was the official when Eddie Guerrero
won the European title.
[Jerry] Who gets to call it?
Don't let Jericho call it.
[Ross] Just-- it doesn't matter, does it?
[Jerry] Yeah, Jericho will cheat in some kind of way,
you know that, "Heads I win, tails you lose."
[Ross] Guerrero is calling it.
Tails, you lose. The European Championship is on the line.
[Ross] You heard referee Tim White say it.
-[Jerry] What? -[Ross] Guerrero--
[Chimel] The European Championship is on the line.
[Jerry] Check the coin, two tails.
-[Ross] And at-- oh, here we go. -[bell ringing]
European title on the line, so Jericho's Intercontinental title
is a mute point in this matchup.
Only Eddie Guerrero's European title at stake.
[Jerry] I think that's the only one that's in the--
imported here in the United Kingdom.
A mute point? Did you say mute point?
[Ross] Mute.
Oh, that's tremendous offense already.
Oh, my. On display by Jericho
-and Guerrero. -[Jerry] Let me get this straight,
did you say-- did you say mute or moot?
[Ross] I don't know what I said, maybe I said moot.
-[Jerry] No, you said mute. -[Ross] Then why did you ask me twice?
To shove it up my can, right?
-[Jerry] Now it's a moot point. -[Ross] That's a moot point.
[Jerry] Eddie's hurt, he's reeling.
[Ross] One of the great battles here, King, is J.R.
and the English language,
I have to admit it.
[Jerry] And I know you don't speak a word of Spanish, do you?
[Ross] Not a damn word.
And look at Eddie Guerrero, I don't think he wants any more of Jericho.
[Jerry speaks Spanish]
Uh-oh, Chyna's not gonna have any of that.
[Ross] Chyna says you're gonna fight like a man.
[Jerry] Go put the Latino Heat on him.
[Ross] She may be wearing the pants in the family anyway.
[Jerry] Look out.
[Ross] Jericho making sure
that the European Champion gets back in the ring.
Jericho got a chance to leave here with two titles.
And the best-- oh, there's a nice powerslam, and a kick-out.
The best that Guerrero can do is to leave here with his European title,
which ain't that bad.
[Jerry] Yeah, but that's not exactly fair.
[Ross] You gotta wonder what's going on back in the locker room area.
[Eddie groans]
[Ross] As far as the McMahon-Helmsley regime is concerned,
and where Mr. McMahon might be leaning--
there's a knockdown, the cover, and a near fall.
[Jerry] I'm glad that Vince didn't allow Linda McMahon to come to--
-[Ross] He didn't allow her. -[Jerry] What?
[Ross] It's like he owns her or something.
All we know is that Mr. McMahon said a McMahon family member
was going to leave Earls Court tonight with the WWE title.
[Jerry] Well, I heard that Vince banned Linda from the corporate jets.
[Ross] Man, that's--
[Jerry] That's another royal rumor I heard.
[Ross] That's another royal rumor, you're good at that.
I hope that's an unfounded royal rumor.
-[Jerry] She's not here, is she? -[Ross] No, she isn't.
[Jerry] Okay.
Come on, Latino Heat.
[Ross] Ow, a hard knife-edge chop and more by Jericho,
knocking down Guerrero.
[Jerry] That'll heat up your Latino chest.
[Ross] Gonna set those pecs right on fire.
Nice inside cradle, inside cradle, and Jericho able to free himself.
And look out. Looks like Jericho's back up.
Oh, suplex.
-[Jerry] Look out. -[Ross] And the blood rushed
to Guerrero's head.
[Jericho] Come on, baby.
-[Ross] No, that's not gonna get it done. -[Jerry] Man.
[Ross] And--
[Jerry] That Jericho, you gotta admit he's a showboat.
-[Tim] Get away, get away. -[Ross] He has got a lot of confidence,
I'll say that.
As we look over the shoulder, a broad well-sculpted shoulder
of "The Ninth Wonder of the World" Chyna.
[crowd chanting] Y2J! Y2J!
[Jerry] Y2J--
[Ross] Translates into pretty much any language.
[Jerry] I'm trying to figure out what Y2J means in Spanish,
a beautiful language.
[Ross] Yeah. Too bad you don't speak it.
[Jerry] What?
[Ross] Oh, nice spinning heel kick by Jericho,
knocking Guerrero out of the ring,
and, oh, with a baseball slide.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] And Guerrero backpedaling.
[Jerry] Oh.
[Ross] And that was a setup, you gotta think all along.
[Jerry] That broad well-sculpted shoulder and arm of Mamacita.
[Ross] Did you hear the impact of that clothesline?
[Jerry] And I-- by the way, I did not called Chyna a broad.
[Ross] That was-- that's good.
It's good that you clarified that.
[Jerry] One more look at this, J.R.
Come on, come one, come on, follow me, please.
[Ross] Well, that was a new perspective.
We said Chyna could be the difference in any environment that she is in.
She is that extraordinary.
[Jerry] Mamacita.
[Ross] And Eddie Guerrero, talk about high risk,
he is in a-- in no man's land up there.
He is the European Champion.
[Jerry] Very risky.
[Ross] Risky business indeed and now Jericho, both on top.
Oh, what a suplex, and Jericho's head bounced off the canvas,
but it was Guerrero whose back and spine just bounced
-right off the center of the ring. -[Tim] Two!
-Three! -[Ross] Both men are down.
Four!
[Ross] Another look at that. Look at this impact.
[Jerry] Oh.
-Six! -[Jerry] Actually, I think--
I think Jericho's a little worse off than Eddie Guerrero.
-Oh, wait. -[Ross] Jericho doesn't want a count-out,
now Jericho the cover, one, two,
and a long, long hand.
[Jerry] Plus Jericho doesn't have Mamacita.
I just love to say Mamacita and Latino Heat.
[Ross] I know you do.
[Jerry] See, I told you I speak Spanish.
[Ross] Oh, what a beautiful shot.
Look at that form by Eddie Guerrero now.
He gets quickly and suddenly, quicker than a hiccup.
There's Eddie Guerrero with a hurricanrana.
[Jerry] Oh, beautiful.
[Ross] Inverted headscissors called the hurricanrana.
Eddie Guerrero taking Jericho off the top turnbuckle.
This has got to be it.
And Jericho somehow got a right shoulder off the canvas.
[Jerry] Come on, finish him up and then you can go to the hacienda with Mamacita.
[Ross] You don't speak a damn word of Spanish.
-[Jerry] What? -[Ross] Watch this.
[Jerry] Yeah, I enjoy watching it.
Look at that move.
[Ross] Look at this submission move here.
Say it, I'm ready!
[Jerry] Look at that, put more pressure.
-He'll give up. -[Ross] He can't tap out.
You just gotta say it, Jericho.
Almost a unique version of a-- of an abdominal stretch.
And to the pinning predicament and a counter.
Oh, look at this counter,
and another counter.
And both men back up and both men going right back down.
Both had the same idea with the clothesline,
but it's Guerrero quicker than the challenger for the European title.
Only the European title at stake in this matchup.
[Jerry] In other words, Y2J can walk out of here
with the Intercontinental and the European title, right?
[Ross] You got it.
-Sí. -[Jerry] Sí?
You're learning already, just being around Mamacita makes you smarter.
That's a miracle.
¿Qué pasa, Mamacita?
[Ross] Abdominal stretch applied by Eddie Guerrero.
Referee Tim White looking for the submission
as Mamacita seemingly shouting instructions to Eddie Guerrero,
but Jericho got a thumb to the eye.
-[groans] -[Jerry] Ooh!
[Ross] Snapmare takeover, Jericho got lit up by that
knife-edge chop by the European Champion.
[Jerry] Pop him like a piñata.
[Ross] More Spanish.
Sí.
[Jerry] I think Jericho is just about finished, J.R.
[Ross] And then, when it's over they could take a siesta.
[Jerry] Siesta with Mamacita.
[Ross] Good lord.
Oh, what a shot there by Eddie Guerrero.
[Jerry] Do they have any lowriders here in London?
[Ross] It's been a-- oh, hey, hey, hey.
[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] Guerrero got put in another ZIP code or time zone, if you will,
and a very, very concerned look on the face of Chyna,
running around on the outside
as Jericho trying a massive offense here.
-[crowd clamoring] -[air horn blows]
-[Jerry] Look at that. -[Ross] Oh, a count.
Sunset flip and a near fall.
[Jerry] I didn't-- you didn't even-- that was so quick,
you didn't even have time to say… [speaks Spanish]
[Ross] And another cover.
Eddie Guerrero is, like, trying pour smoke in a keyhole.
-[Jerry] What? -[Ross] Another uppercut by Guerrero.
[Jerry] Smoke in a keyhole?
[Ross] And Guerrero now,
he comes at you in a lot of different ways as the European Champion.
-And look at this move, another-- -[Jerry] And this is it.
[Ross] Another-- kind of a vertical stretch if you will.
[Jerry] Say it, give up or you'll never, ever get out of that.
[shouts]
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Look at the blood rushing to his head.
[Ross] Jericho hanging as tough as he can, but for how much longer?
[Jerry] He's hanging, all right.
-Mama-- -[Ross] Chyna likes--
-she likes what she sees. -[Jerry] Mamacita like. Uh-oh.
[Ross] Guerrero has put a smile on Chyna's face.
-[Jerry] Look at this. -[wrestlers shout]
-[Ross] And now Jericho… -[Jerry] He reversed it.
[Ross] …has reversed this very unique submission move.
[Jerry] Look at this.
[groans] Oh, no.
[Ross] Face-first came Guerrero,
and next may go the European Championship.
[Jerry] That would really cool off the Latino Heat.
[Ross] I suggest it would.
[Jerry] Mamacita would not be happy with Eddie Guerrero.
[Ross] Oh.
And Jericho, boom, continues to build momentum,
every time you think he does, it's Guerrero that shows more offense.
But now, the challenger for the European title
with a distinct advantage,
going for yet another cover,
and again Guerrero barely able to kick out.
He really had to reach down that time, King.
[Jerry] Come on, Latino Heat.
[Ross] Oh, reversal, forearm and--
[Jericho] Come on, ref.
Just two. He can't get out.
[Ross] They'll want a little quicker count there.
-I thought the count was good. -[Jerry] Jericho's begging.
Quit begging, Jericho.
[Ross] I don't think he's begging.
He certainly would like to win the European title, why not?
Uh-oh.
-Oh, my God. -[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] Both these men over the top.
[Jerry] Right out here in front of us.
[Ross] And Guerrero's back,
his kidneys just cracked the edge of the ring.
He may be severely hurt.
[Tim] It's your back? It's your back?
-Can you keep going? -I don't know.
Check my back. I don't know if that's…
[Ross] Guerrero and the referee may have to stop this matchup.
And…
Guerrero is not really-- his lower back
hit the edge of the ring very aggressively.
[Jerry] Mamacita is hot.
[Ross] Very violently and--
[Jerry] We don't wanna make Mamacita hot.
[Ross] Wait a minute, the ref-- Wait a minute.
-[Jerry] She could become a bunny, boy. -[Ross] Wait a minute,
Chyna in the ring.
-Chyna… -[Jerry] I told you.
[Ross] …with the DDT.
And the referee out here
attending to Eddie Guerrero, the European Champion.
[Chyna] Come on. Get him in there, ref.
[Jerry] But Eddie may not be able to continue, Mamacita.
[Ross] Mamacita just dropped the challenger
right on his head with a DDT.
[Jerry] I missed that. I was looking down here at poor Eddie.
[Ross] And there's a-- This has gotta be it.
-And one, two, three-- no. -[Jerry] What?
-[crowd cheering] -[Ross] No. And Chyna can't believe it.
[Jerry] Oh, boy.
[Ross] She's mad.
She must be thinking, "What must I do?"
[Jerry] She thinks in Spanish, J.R.
[Ross] Uh-oh.
Nice counter by Jericho, landing on his feet.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Jericho.
-[Jerry] Hold on, powerbomb. -[Ross] Oh, powerbomb.
-[Jerry] Look at this. -[Ross] Jericho with another powerbomb.
-[crowd cheering] -Come on, assist!
[Ross] And Chyna just shoved the European title belt in the ring.
-[Jerry] What's she doing? -[Ross] Asai,
the Lionsault with a springboard position.
-[crowd clamoring] -[Jerry] Chyna got the ref distracted.
[Ross] Hey, ref.
Jericho.
-[Jerry] Look out. -[Ross] Oh, Jericho
with a springboard, just dropkicked Chyna off the apron.
-[Jerry] What a cheap shot. -[Ross] But Eddie Guerrero
has got the European title belt.
-[Jerry] Oh! -[Ross] And Guerrero just nailed Jericho
right between the eyes with that heavy belt.
-[Jerry] Uno, dos, tres. -[bell ringing]
-["Latino Heat" playing] -[Ross] Caramba.
-This is not right. -[Chimel] Here's your winner,
and still World Wrestling Entertainment European Champion…
[Jerry] What a what?
-[Chimel] …Eddie Guerrero. -[Ross] A total embrace.
-This is highway robbery. -[Jerry] I don't think Chyna even knows
what happened. Mamacita, Latino Heat's the winner.
[Ross] Chyna is the one that brought that title belt into the ring
that Eddie Guerrero so adeptly used.
[Jerry] And you gotta admit, J.R., even you gotta admit.
Eddie Guerrero should be the Intercontinental Champion also.
[Ross] I don't agree with that at all.
Chyna just screwed Jericho.
-[Jerry] What? -I really appreciate this, okay?
I mean, this is spectacular. This is spectacular tonight.
You just go out there, gang, gang, gang, do what you do, wham,
hit the Pedigree, I'll cover Rock, one, two, three,
you've already been WWE Champion,
Shane-O-Mac, the New WWE Champion, whoo!
Hold on a second, Shane.
I think you're putting the cart before the horse here.
Daddy was talking to me.
I am going to be the World Wrestling Entertainment Champion
when this night is done.
-Mark my words. -[crowd cheering]
No, no. I'm gonna be the champ.
Guys, what does it really matter who's champ,
as long as it's, you know, all in the family?
Who's gonna be the champ? I'll tell you who it matters to.
-It matters to me. -It's matters to me.
-[Ross] Uh-oh. -[rock music playing]
They are problems, no doubt about it. I don't think that--
[Jerry] No, J.R. Don't start talking about it, you'll make it worse.
You're trying to stir.
-You're trying to cause dissension. -[Ross] Yeah,
I tell you, King, I got a-- an interesting feeling
-about this next matchup. -[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] I don't think this is exactly what the McMahon-Helmsley regime
had in mind when they headed across the Atlantic.
Well, folks, this issue concerning the WWE title
really came to a head six days ago at Backlash.
-[Jerry] Oh. -[Ross] That should be all.
[Jerry] That is all.
[Ross] Count him.
Why isn't he counting?
-[Jerry] Shane, be careful. -[Ross] That's not right.
The Rock should've won the match right there.
-[Jerry] Oh, he hit Shane. -[Ross] The Rock just nailed the referee.
-[Jerry] He hit Shane. -[Ross] Wait a minute. No, no.
Oh, my God. My God, the Rock Bottom.
The Rock just took the The Game and Shane down to the concrete.
[Jerry] What?
[Ross] Linda McMahon and--
[Jerry] It's that fired referee, Earl Hebner.
The People's Elbow.
[Ross] The Rock's dropped the People's Elbow.
We need a referee.
We could just send Earl Hebner in the ring.
-The Rock. -[bell ringing]
[Ross] The Rock is the champion.
The People's Champion and the WWE Champion.
The Game is over.
[Triple H] This game is not over.
It is just beginning.
Tonight, Rock, you're gonna have the shortest reign
of any WWE Champion in history.
You will defend the World Wrestling Entertainment Championship
inside the steel cage against my son, Shane.
[Jerry] Shane, in Backlash was the WWE referee.
Tonight, he could be the WWE Champion.
[Ross] There might not be anything left of Shane McMahon
before this is all said and done.
[Jerry] It's the People's Elbow on Shane.
[Ross] The Rock is up.
Oh, yes, yes, yes.
The Rock has dodged the bullet
with a bullseye that's still on the chest.
And The Rock is still the WWE Champion.
[narrator] WWE Insurrextion.
A Triple Threat match.
[Ross] The WWE title is on the line here.
[Shane] You want me, Rock?
You got it, me and you. We're going at it
[narrator] A Triple Threat match.
[Triple H] Rock, I will kick your ass and I will take back
the World Wrestling Entertainment Championship.
[Rock] What you can count on?
What everybody can count on?
The Rock is walking out WWE Champion.
[narrator] A Triple Threat match.
[Ross] Nothing more than a glorified handicap match.
-[Michael] Rock, coming up… -[crowd cheering]
[Michael] …Triple Threat match
for the World Wrestling Entertainment Championship
and perhaps there's some infighting,
some trouble in paradise with your opponents.
[crowd cheering]
[crowd chanting] Rocky! Rocky! Rocky!
Finally, The Rock has come back to London.
[crowd cheering]
You know, once again The Rock says this,
all odds against The Rock, stacked, stacked against The Rock.
And yeah, they don't trust each other.
McMahons don't trust each other.
There's a lot of fighting.
There's a lot of bickering. There's a lot of arguing.
There's a lot of infighting.
There's a lot of inbreeding and everything else that goes in between.
-[Jerry] What? -But The Rock says this,
tonight is the night, Shane McMahon,
Triple H, Vince McMahon, all the McMahons,
it just doesn't matter whether it's in Bombay, India,
whether it's in Cairo, Egypt,
or whether it's in majestic London, England.
[crowd cheering]
All odds stacked against The Rock,
but once again The Rock, The Great One,
The People's Champ is gonna defy all odds,
walk out WWE Champion.
If you smell
what The Rock is cooking.
-["Is Cooking" playing] -[crowd cheering]
-[Jerry] You smell it, J.R.? -[Ross] Oh, yeah,
I smell what The Rock is cooking all right,
but what is cooking in the McMahon-Helmsley camp?
Where is daddy dearest?
Where is he gonna-- where is hanging his hat, so to speak?
I don't know. But I'm sure Rock is counting on infighting--
did he say inbreeding? What's wrong with The Rock?
He's counting on them not being able to get along, Hunter and Shane,
-and I think Rock's wrong. -["No Chance In Hell" playing]
[Ross] Perhaps only Mr. McMahon knows where his allegiance lies.
♪ Up against a machine too strong ♪
-[Ross] And maybe we just got our answer. -[Jerry] Uh-oh.
[Ross] Because, uh, here comes Shane McMahon,
one of the challengers with his daddy, Mr. McMahon, the owner of this company.
[Jerry] I told you, when the time was right
-he'd make his feelings known. -[bell ringing]
[Chimel] The following contest is a Triple Threat match
and it is for the World Wrestling Entertainment Championship.
Introducing one of the challengers being accompanied by the chairman
of the World Wrestling Entertainment, Mr. McMahon,
Shane McMahon.
[crowd booing]
[Ross] A tremendous chorus of boos for The Boy Wonder,
the heir apparent to the throne, Shane McMahon,
who may leave London tonight, here on Sky Box Office,
as the World Wrestling Entertainment Champion.
[Jerry] Let's hope these people don't start that chant again.
♪ One, two, is this on? ♪
["My Time" playing]
♪ Ha, yo, Jimmy Hit me with that Triple H ♪
♪ Yeah, you let the music keep playing Mr. Dunn ♪
[Chimel] And the other challenger being accompanied to the ring
by the World Wrestling Entertainment Women's Champion,
Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley,
from Greenwich, Connecticut,
weighing in at 260 pounds,
Triple H.
[Ross] Some say he is the best in the business
and I have a hard time arguing that point.
A man that was just six days ago, at Backlash,
the WWE Champion, the man that retired the legendary Mick Foley.
[Jerry] Yeah, but I'll tell you somebody that doesn't say
he's the best in the business, that's The Rock.
[Ross] And that's what we're here to find out.
[Jerry] There's the fly in the ointment, though.
[Ross] Vince McMahon, who said earlier tonight
that a McMahon family member would leave with the WWE title.
Well, he obviously isn't thinking about his daughter,
who already is the WWE Women's Champion.
I mean, technically Triple H is a McMahon family member.
-He's Vince's son-in-law. -[Ross] That's right.
[Jerry] Vince's daughter's husband.
[Ross] Look at that. You're quite the genealogist, aren't you?
[Jerry] Well, you know, after The Rock comes out here
and accuses people of inbreeding…
[Ross] There'll be 17,767 on their feet
in just a few moments as the WWE Champion,
who was only crowned six days ago, will make his way to the ring.
But if these folks in the ring have their way,
The Rock will leave London without WWE gold.
[Jerry] That would a long ride home.
[crowd chanting] Rocky! Rocky! Rocky!
-["Is Cooking" playing] -[Rock] If you smell…
[Jerry] Oh, no.
[Rock] …is cooking.
[Chimel] And their opponent, from Miami, Florida,
weighing in at 275 pounds,
he is the World Wrestling Entertainment Champion,
The Rock.
[Ross] He's as good as it gets.
The People's Champion, now the WWE Champion.
[Jerry] They love The Rock in London.
[Ross] And The Rock knows
that this could be a very long night,
and he can smell it.
He smells what the fans are cooking here at Insurrextion on Sky Box Office.
[Jerry] He'd like nothing better than to
send both Shane McMahon and Triple H into that SmackDown Hotel.
[Ross] The rules of a Triple Threat match are very unique.
The first man to score pinfall or submission is the winner.
The Rock does not have to be pinned
to lose the WWE title.
Again, remember those rules, folks.
The first man to be pinned
or made to submit,
whoever makes that man get pinned or submit
is the winner and the champion.
[Jerry] Wow.
[Ross] And look at the brother-in-laws now.
[Jerry] Looks like they're starting to get along a little better.
[Ross] They're collaborating, at least for the moment.
But remember, Shane can pin Triple H,
or vice versa, and become the WWE Champion.
Because of the Triple Threat rules,
The Rock does not have to be involved in the decision to lose his title.
We saw that happen to Kurt Angle
-at WrestleMania… -[Jerry] Right.
[Ross] …when he lost both the Intercontinental title
and the European title.
[Jerry] So if Triple H were to pin Shane, Triple H is the WWE Champion?
[Ross] You got it.
[Jerry] And I know you said vice versa,
but fat chance of that happening, huh?
[Ross] I don't know about that.
Lot of egos in the ring right now.
Mike Chioda, the official of this contest.
[crowd clamoring]
[Jerry] Speaking of egos, that Hebnerized Chioda.
[Ross] Looks like Triple H is suggesting to Shane
that he stand out of the way
and let Triple H and The Rock get it on here.
[Jerry] Shane said, "I'll just be over here."
[Ross] Yeah, for how long?
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Somebody's back is on the mat.
[Vince] Slap him Triple H, get him.
-[Ross] And there's the trashing talk. -Come on, get him, Triple H.
Yeah.
[Jerry] Here we go.
-[Ross] And the-- -[bell ringing]
[Ross] The match underway, right hands by The Rock
hammering away at The Game, and there's Shane McMahon.
-[Jerry] Oh. -[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Shane McMahon trying to get him some,
and here comes--
here comes The Game knocking down The Rock to one knee.
[Jerry] And the WWE title is on the line here in London.
Wow.
[Ross] Thanks for being with us, ladies and gentlemen,
wherever you may be on Sky Box Office.
Thanks for inviting us into your home.
-[Jerry] Look at this. -[Ross] And the WWE title on the line.
Oh, The Rock avoids the right ha-- Oh, my, a right, and another right.
Down goes Triple H and down goes Shane.
[Jerry] That was obvious double-- I guess teamwork.
Instead of double teaming, it was teamwork
on the part of Triple H and Shane.
-[Ross] Almost in collusion. -[Jerry] Look out.
[Ross] And now Triple H being eliminated, at least for the moment,
leaving Shane McMahon.
Oh, my, Shane McMahon taken up and over the top rope
by a furious right hand of the WWE Champion.
[crowd clamoring]
[Jerry] Shane is knocked loopy.
I think he got hit in the jaw.
[Ross] The Rock just ran right through Triple H with a huge clothesline.
-[Jerry] Hey, Rock-- -[Ross] Oh, he's got your crown, King.
-[Jerry] Took my crown. -[Ross] Not the crown.
-[Jerry] No, please. -[Ross] That's a bad move. Oh.
[Jerry] Look out.
[Ross] Shane McMahon now brought back on our table.
Not the crown. And The Rock got--
Rock got chest-first on the-- on that steel security railing.
[Jerry] J.R., go get my crown.
-[Ross] I'll get right on it. -[Jerry] Thanks.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] I'm sure Lloyd's of London's got that insured for a bunch of money.
[Jerry] Priceless.
[Ross] And look at the double team here, Triple H upstairs,
Shane McMahon downstairs.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] These brothers-in-law.
[Jerry] They're working in tandem.
[Ross] For the time being.
But wait until it gets down to nut-cutting time
and we'll see where their-- where their allegiance lies.
Oh, look.
[Jerry] When we get down to what-cutting time?
[Ross] And a quick knockdown by The Game.
[Jerry] You're talking about Jackson Pollocks again, are you?
-[Ross] No. -[Jerry] Oh.
[Ross] Jackson Pollocks?
[Jerry] Oh, look out.
[Ross] Triple H measuring The Rock, and the corner of the elbow
right into the esophagus.
-Oh, we could hear that. -Hey!
[Ross] Just pries the air right out of The Rock.
-[Jerry] Wow. -[groans]
[Ross] Mike Chioda, the referee, has got his hands full here.
As Triple H's lovely wife Stephanie looks on.
-[Jerry] She is lovely. She's radiant. -[Ross] Alongside her--
alongside her daddy.
[Jerry] Don't make any disparaging remarks about his face.
[Ross] Now that you bring it up, you did last week.
Look at this.
Look at The Game showing that aggressive strength, just stomping away at The Rock.
[Jerry] Don't forget, Vince listens to this right after the show.
[Mike] Hey, one, two. Hey, back it up. Back it up.
-[Ross] Triple H stomping The Rock. -Get out of here!
[Ross] The Rock fighting his way back up.
-Man, he is… -[Jerry] Oh, man.
[Ross] …rocking a huge bullseye,
as we have said, on that massive chest of his.
Knocked down. What's Shane doing?
Oh, Shane's gonna, oh, show you how.
[Jerry] There you go.
-[Ross] Oh, my God. -[Jerry] Look at the footwork.
-He's quick. -[Ross] Yeah.
Muhammad Ali, he isn't.
[Jerry] It's the Shane shuffle. Muhammad who?
-[Ross] Shane shuffle. -[Jerry] Look at him.
Couple of jabs, stick right in there.
[Ross] Oh, I think he hurt his hand.
-[Jerry] He hurt his wrist. -[Ross] Bless his heart.
[Jerry] Here you go.
[Ross] What in the hell?
[Jerry] Triple H shuffle. Everybody's shuffling. The Hunter shuffle.
-Look at this. -[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Again, oh, man, they're having fun with The Rock now.
[Ross] Rock being toyed with.
And the WWE title, nothing to-- nothing to--
[Jerry] What's next? Shane wants to try something new.
Look at this.
-[crowd cheering] -[Ross] Oh, no. Good Lord.
The Rock exploded.
[Jerry] Wait a minute, what a cheap shot by The Rock.
[Ross] You wanna dance?
-[Jerry] It's The Rock shuffle. -[Ross] The Rock on his toes.
[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Look. Oh, no.
[Ross] A double bionic elbow.
[Jerry] What?
[crowd chanting] Rocky! Rocky!
-[Ross] Triple H… -[Jerry] There you go.
[Ross] …delivered a facebuster to the WWE Champion.
And Shane McMahon came back with a vengeance there
with a-- with a clothesline. That could be all.
-One, two, and The Rock gonna-- -[Mike] Two!
The left shoulder off the canvas that time.
[Jerry] And you thought Shane was out of it, didn't you, J.R.?
[Ross] I sure did.
-[Jerry] Back with a vengeance. -Come here. Come here, Vince.
[Mike] Come on, get him up.
-Come on. -[Ross] Yeah. I like to look for this.
-Triple H, come on. -[Ross] And out.
-[Jerry] Now, watch Vince-- watch Vince. -[Ross] Look. Hey, come on.
-[Jerry] Look at Vince. -[Ross] Damn, that's not right, King.
You gotta admit that's cheating.
That's not right.
[Jerry] He's got a vested interest in this match.
[Ross] He sure does as the owner of the WWE--
[Jerry] Oh, listen, listen. Listen to this chant.
[crowd chanting] Asshole! Asshole!
[Ross] Very loud "asshole" chant.
[Jerry] What?
They're referring to him as the spam fritter.
[Ross] Mr. McMahon made the guarantee that in this very ring,
a McMahon family member would leave with the WWE title.
[crowd clamoring]
[Jerry] They got him.
-[Ross] Shane McMahon--Wow. -[Jerry] Uh-oh.
[Ross] He's already-- He's hitting The Rock.
He's talking trash to him as well.
-[Vince] Cover it, come on, two-- -[Jerry] Two.
[Ross] The Rock kicked out. And The Rock scissors up with that leg.
Look at The Rock.
He's expending a lot of energy with those kick-outs there.
[Jerry] Oh, boy, look at this.
Oh, don't you punch. That's it! Come on!
[Jerry] Watch it. Remember Hebner.
He kicked out!
[Ross] He does not get disqualified and eliminated from this matchup.
And I suppose the referee can make that judgment call.
Rock barely able to stand, look at the shape of his legs.
They were spaghetti legs for a moment.
-[Jerry] Spaghetti legs? -[Ross] And a sleeper applied by The Game.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] Shane getting a much needed resting.
[Jerry] He's not resting. He's just measuring up The Rock.
-Come on down. -[Jerry] Trying to figure out
-where he's gonna hit him. -Put him down, Triple H.
[Ross] McMahon almost has a demonic look in his eye.
Remember, some people say-- You'll hear this.
Some people say that McMahon is the devil himself.
[Jerry] Who says that?
[Ross] Some people.
[Ross] First chinlock taking down the champion.
Triple H in control as his brother-in-law, Shane McMahon.
[Jerry] I would say just probably disgruntled employees
would say that about Vince.
[Ross] And there's plenty of them to go around.
Bunch of ingrates.
Front leg cinching up in that reverse chinlock
as the WWE Champion grounded for sure here.
[Jerry] The referee's warning Shane.
He's in this match too, you know, ref.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] That's a good question, I don't know.
[Shane] Ring the bell.
-[Mike] What do you say? -[Shane] That knee's hurting, brother.
[Ross] Triple H is squeezing The Rock
and Shane is wearing him out verbally.
[Jerry] And Vince is-- he's putting his two cents worth there too.
-[Mike] One. -[Jerry] Instructions.
[Ross] I would say that Mr. McMahon is here for moral support,
but that would be inaccurate.
[Mike] Two!
[Ross] Uh-oh.
-[Jerry] This could be it, right here. -[Ross] Could be.
Oh, The Rock holding on.
The Rock holding on.
And I mean just barely.
[Jerry] Shane, do some damage.
-[Ross] Shane, keep talking. Uh-oh. -[Jerry] Wait a minute.
[Ross] The Rock's got a sleeper on Shane.
[Jerry] Triple H got the sleeper on The Rock.
[Jerry] No.
[Ross] And they all fell down like the king's men.
What the hell was that?
[Jerry] I don't know, Vince.
[Ross] I was wondering that myself.
What the hell was that?
[Jerry] Like a daisy chain.
Uh-oh.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Rock, big time, right hands,
and the champion smacking down The Game.
[Jerry] Oh, big knee.
[Ross] What a high knee that was right in the Rock's face.
And a clothesline almost beheaded the champion.
[crowd clamoring]
[Ross] Could be it right here.
-Oh, what a-- oh, Shane with the-- -[Jerry] What?
[Ross] Triple H may have had The Rock and then…
[Jerry] I don't think Shane realized what he did.
[Ross] I guess he got caught up in the moment.
[Jerry] He thought that was The Rock on top.
[Ross] Oh, please, he got caught up in the moment.
[Jerry] He's done a mistake.
[Ross] And Triple H didn't like it all, I can't say that I blame him.
-[crowd cheering] -[Ross] Uh-oh.
Brothers-in-law.
-[Jerry] Shane-- -[Ross] Oh, Shane McMahon
nailed Triple H from behind this time.
[Jerry] Vince, Vince.
-[Ross] And The Rock is getting-- -[Jerry] Vince!
[Ross] What is Shane doing?
-Oh. -[Jerry] What the heck?
[Ross] Went for a moonsault but landed on his feet.
That's right, come on.
[Jerry] What agility.
[Ross] Oh.
And what a clothesline and a DDT.
[Jerry] Oh, no. Stephanie, don't get up there.
[Ross] Oh, The Rock just DDT'd Shane.
[Jerry] Just stay right there, Stephanie. There you go.
[Ross] There's a cover, one, two, three, four.
Come on.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Stephanie just kept the--
she just saved the title
for either her husband or her brother-in-law-- or brother.
[Jerry] Oh.
[Ross] And The Rock now.
How many odds does The Rock have to overcome here tonight in London?
[Jerry] Uh-oh.
[Ross] Shane reverses The Rock.
[Jerry] Look at Shane. What's he--
[Ross] Oh, Shane with Triple H's Pedigree.
[Jerry] He can't lift The Rock. He can't get him up.
[Ross] Triple H is the master of the Pedigree,
not his brother-in-law.
[Jerry] Oh, no.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Uh-oh, look out here.
Shane-- I think Shane and the referee's heads cracked together.
[Jerry] Look out.
[Ross] And the referee underneath that whole stack.
And referee Mike Chioda has been knocked out right in front of us.
-[Jerry] Look at this. -[Ross] And Mr. McMahon
just tripped The Rock.
[Jerry] I didn't see that.
[Ross] And look out, this is a bad situation here.
[Jerry] Look at Vince.
[Ross] Oh, don't pull the hair off.
-The Rock has-- -[Jerry] Look at that.
[Ross] Triple H has knocked The Rock down
and may be out with the WWE title belt, but there's no referee.
[Jerry] Get up, Chioda, you moron.
[Ross] Thank God there's no referee.
[Jerry] Stephanie, get in there and count.
-[Ross] McMahon is waving for somebody. -Come on. Come on.
[Jerry] Where's the referee?
-[Ross] McMahon is-- -Come on!
[Ross] Who-- Oh, it's that Gerald Brisco.
One of the stooges.
-[Jerry] New champ. -[crowd cheering]
[Ross] And The Rock kicked out. The Rock kicked out.
[Jerry] Brisco, you idiot, count to three.
[Ross] Brisco tried to get the three-count.
[crowd clamoring]
[Jerry] Wait a minute.
-What's Shane doing? -[Ross] This is chaotic here.
We got Gerald Brisco,
one of McMahon's closest associates, as the referee now.
[Jerry] That's it. Don't refer to him as a stooge anymore.
-Uh-oh. -[Ross] That insults all other stooges
-in this business. -[Jerry] What?
[Ross] Oh, this is-- that's-- Shane McMahon got a steel chair.
[Jerry] There we go.
-[crowd cheering] -[Ross] Hello, brother-in-law.
[Jerry] He hit him again.
[Ross] Shane nailed his own brother-in-law.
And outside goes Shane.
[Jerry] Help! Vince!
[Ross] And Vince is in the ring.
-Mr. McMahon in the ring. -[Jerry] There we go.
Taking matters on his own hands.
[Ross] That should be a disqualification.
-[Jerry] Brisco is a lenient referee. -[Ross] Look at Brisco saying
everything is all right.
[Ross] This is-- this is rubbish, total rubbish.
[Jerry] Vince guaranteed a new--
-[Jerry] Uh-oh. -[Ross] That's what hit The Rock
-when The Rock's back was turned. -[crowd cheering]
[Jerry] Huh? Wait, Vince.
[Ross] Just backing away even though he's holding a steel chair.
[Jerry] Tell me you weren't gonna hit him.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] And a low blow. That was a low blow.
-[Jerry] This is the Pedigree. -[Ross] Oh, damn it.
God damn it. Damn it.
A Pedigree.
This is not right.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] The Rock got a shoulder up.
-Vince can't believe it. -[Jerry] Fire Brisco, Vince.
[Ross] Nobody ever comes out of a Pedigree,
but The Rock did it, somehow, someway.
And no one, including Mr. McMahon, can believe it.
[Jerry] Oh. Oh, no.
He's fired.
[Ross] Triple H just lashed out at his father-in-law's associate.
[Jerry] You can't blame him.
I don't think Brisco could count to three.
[Ross] We got two referees out.
Oh, Triple H going for another Pedigree.
-[Jerry] Two Pedigrees. -[Ross] And he hits it.
[Jerry] Count, Vince.
[Ross] He hits it.
And we-- we need--
Wait. There's no referee.
[Jerry] Wait, I can feel the genius at work here.
[Ross] Oh, come on.
[Jerry] Lookit. It's the master's head, baby,
right before our very eyes.
-[Ross] I'll be damned. -[crowd jeering]
[Ross] McMahon is gonna screw The Rock.
This has got to be tiresome.
[Jerry] You gotta have the real deal.
-You gotta-- -[Ross] Wait a minute.
-[Jerry] What? -[Ross] That's Earl Hebner.
[Jerry] What is that idiot doing to Vince?
[Ross] Earl Hebner just pulled Vince out of the ring.
[Jerry] He's not even supposed to be in London.
You're not a referee!
[Ross] Oh, he's was reinstated by Linda McMahon last Sunday.
[Jerry] Oh, uh-oh.
-I'm gonna kill you, you son of a bitch. -No, just knock it off.
[Jerry] Oh, Vince.
-[Ross] McMahon may have broken his hand. -[Jerry] Oh, my God.
[Ross] McMahon may have broken his hand.
[Jerry] Call the doctor. Emergency.
[Ross] But The Rock is down.
-[Jerry] Medics. -[Ross] The Rock has suffered
two Pedigrees.
The Rock is trying to get up.
[Jerry] They have 911 here?
[Ross] Triple H on top.
Shane McMahon inadvertently, I think, just--
he fell on the rope and Triple H straddled the top rope.
[Jerry] Inadvertently, you think?
[Ross] I think.
[Jerry] Come on.
Oh, Vince's hand is crushed.
[Ross] It's like a low blow.
Wait a minute.
[Jerry] What else can go wrong now?
[Ross] Mr. McMahon is chasing Earl Hebner.
[Jerry] Get him, catch him.
[Ross] What in the hell is going on?
It's chaotic here.
[Jerry] Catch him, Vince. You can do it.
[Ross] Oh.
[Jerry] No.
[Ross] Rock Bottom. Rock Bottom.
-Rock Bottom. -[Jerry] Oh, Vince.
Vince got Rock Bottomed.
[Ross] Triple H dumped outside.
-[Jerry] Oh. -[Ross] Shane, spinebuster by The Rock.
-[crowd cheering] -[Jerry] Oh, no, J.R.
[Ross] Yeah, termination of the low blow.
It's The Rock Bottom.
[Jerry] There goes the elbow pad.
And London's fixing to get the most electrifying move
in sports entertainment, People's Elbow.
[Ross] Shane McMahon got the People's Elbow.
-Earl Hebner. -[crowd] One, two, three.
-[bell ringing] -[Ross] Oh, yes.
-The Rock has done it. -["Know Your Role" playing]
[Ross] The Rock has dodged a bullet again.
[Chimel] Here's your winner, and still
World Wrestling Entertainment Champion,
The Rock.
[Ross] Can you believe it?
Do you believe in miracles?
Triple H got the low blow.
Mr. McMahon got the Rock Bottom.
And Shane McMahon got the People's Elbow
and The Rock got the duke.
[Jerry] Oh, this is awful, look at Vince.
Look at his hand. It's crumpled.
[Ross] Earl Hebner here reinstated last Sunday at Backlash.
-[Jerry] Vince's plan was ruined. -[air horn blowing]
[Ross] And the guarantee
of a McMahon family member walking out of here
with the WWE title has gone awry.
[Jerry] Now, look at this.
[crowd cheering]
[Ross] Well-- and then we saw the People's Elbow by The Rock.
[Jerry] On poor Shane McMahon, and that was it.
[Ross] The People's Elbow to the heart of The Boy Wonder
and somehow, someway,
The Rock has prevailed at Insurrextion.
You talk about a marked man though, King.
No one has ever had a bigger bullseye on their chest than does The Rock
because you know that Mr. McMahon will have a plan,
and that is to take the title off The Rock,
but not tonight.
The Rock has done it. He is the champion. ,
