the tag titles.

00:10:23,689 --> 00:10:24,757
Shut up!

175
00:10:25,691 --> 00:10:28,227
[Cole] And Bayley went right after Asuka
with a right hand

176
00:10:28,294 --> 00:10:30,029
and extremely upset here.

177
00:10:30,096 --> 00:10:32,698
And now Bianca with a cheap shot
of her own to IYO.

178
00:10:32,765 --> 00:10:34,300
[Saxton] Yeah, let's go.

179
00:10:34,367 --> 00:10:37,370
[Cole] And now Dakota and IYO in,
as well as Alexa and Asuka.

180
00:10:37,436 --> 00:10:39,438
[indistinct conversation]

181
00:10:40,773 --> 00:10:42,875
-[Corey] Oh, my!
-[Saxton] Oof, oof!

182
00:10:42,942 --> 00:10:45,244
[Corey] That's the aggression
we need to see from this.

183
00:10:45,311 --> 00:10:46,879
Good luck, referee Shawn Bennett,

184
00:10:46,946 --> 00:10:49,548
because this is going
to be an all-out war here tonight.

185
00:10:49,615 --> 00:10:52,418
[Saxton] And losing complete control
at the start of the matchup.

186
00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:54,286
[Cole] And we're back
to Bianca and Bayley,

187
00:10:54,353 --> 00:10:57,990
the two legal women and a shoulder tackle
by Bianca to start things off.

188
00:10:58,057 --> 00:11:00,159
The woman who's won
the Royal Rumble, the RAW

189
00:11:00,226 --> 00:11:03,496
and SmackDown Women's Championships,
Bianca Belair, in control.

190
00:11:03,562 --> 00:11:05,665
[Corey] This is a smart strategy
by Belair's team.

191
00:11:05,731 --> 00:11:07,800
You want to cut the head off the snake,
so to speak.

192
00:11:07,867 --> 00:11:09,869
You want to go to the leader,
take out Bayley.

193
00:11:09,935 --> 00:11:11,470
[crowd cheering]

194
00:11:11,537 --> 00:11:14,540
[Saxton] Going back to your days
on Friday Night SmackDown,

195
00:11:14,607 --> 00:11:16,175
a heated rivalry last year

196
00:11:16,242 --> 00:11:18,144
between Belair and Bayley.

197
00:11:18,210 --> 00:11:20,546
[Cole] Dakota and IYO get involved

198
00:11:20,613 --> 00:11:23,149
and turn the tables
for their mentor, Bayley.

199
00:11:26,419 --> 00:11:28,654
-[woman] Hey!
-Yeah!

200
00:11:28,721 --> 00:11:31,857
[Cole] And now Alexa Bliss
back into the frame with her right hand.

201
00:11:31,924 --> 00:11:33,426
[Corey] Dakota just got rocked.

202
00:11:33,492 --> 00:11:37,830
[Cole] Dakota Kyle looked a little weak
in the knees after Bliss connected.

203
00:11:37,897 --> 00:11:39,432
[Corey] Double-team incoming.

204
00:11:40,566 --> 00:11:42,101
[Cole] And now Asuka back in the ring.

205
00:11:42,168 --> 00:11:46,472
There has been no control at all
in this match since the beginning.

206
00:11:47,606 --> 00:11:50,142
[Saxton] In a match that's all
about control, ironically enough.

207
00:11:50,209 --> 00:11:51,210
[Corey] Uh-oh!

208
00:11:51,277 --> 00:11:53,045
[Cole] What the hell is going
to happen here?

209
00:11:53,112 --> 00:11:55,347
-[Corey] A triple suplex!
-[Cole] Oh, my goodness!

210
00:11:55,414 --> 00:11:57,416
[crowd cheering]

211
00:11:58,884 --> 00:12:01,320
[Cole] Bianca, Asuka and Alexa.

212
00:12:04,924 --> 00:12:06,025
[screams]

213
00:12:07,593 --> 00:12:09,195
[Corey] Bianca with some more tricks.

214
00:12:09,728 --> 00:12:11,263
[Cole] And Bianca with a moonsault!

215
00:12:12,098 --> 00:12:14,100
And here's the cover,
and Bayley kicks out.

216
00:12:14,166 --> 00:12:17,103
She actually pinned all three members
of Bayley's team.

217
00:12:17,169 --> 00:12:19,271
[Corey] IYO SKY had to get to work
in that exchange,

218
00:12:19,338 --> 00:12:22,575
taking both of Bianca's knees
on the impact.

219
00:12:24,343 --> 00:12:27,379
[Saxton] Bayley, Dakota Kai, IYO SKY
getting a little overwhelmed here.

220
00:12:27,446 --> 00:12:29,482
[Cole] Now Bayley needs to regroup
is what--

221
00:12:29,548 --> 00:12:31,317
You need to shut the hell up right now!

222
00:12:32,118 --> 00:12:34,453
Guys, I think she said to cheer louder.

223
00:12:35,187 --> 00:12:36,989
I think Bayley said, "Cheer louder."

224
00:12:37,056 --> 00:12:39,125
[Corey] You are the dirt worst, Cole.

225
00:12:39,191 --> 00:12:40,826
This woman's out here trying to compete

226
00:12:40,893 --> 00:12:42,695
in one of the biggest matches
of her career,

227
00:12:42,762 --> 00:12:44,296
and you're looking to derail her,

228
00:12:44,363 --> 00:12:45,531
by proxy, nonetheless.

229
00:12:45,598 --> 00:12:47,933
[Cole] Remember,
Bayley's only had, what, one match

230
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,668
since she returned from injury?

231
00:12:49,735 --> 00:12:51,637
[Saxton] One match,
and this is the first time

232
00:12:51,704 --> 00:12:54,740
Bayley's actually teamed up
with Dakota Kai and IYO SKY.

233
00:12:57,109 --> 00:12:59,912
[Cole] And tag made,
and here comes IYO SKY.

234
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:01,914
You know, interesting note.

235
00:13:01,981 --> 00:13:05,751
Did you guys realize
that IYO SKY once had a faction

236
00:13:05,818 --> 00:13:10,222
which included her sister Mio and Asuka

237
00:13:10,289 --> 00:13:14,593
in Japan, known as Triple Tails,
a decade ago?

238
00:13:14,660 --> 00:13:16,295
[Corey] I was not aware of that.

239
00:13:16,362 --> 00:13:19,799
[Cole] IYO and Asuka crossing paths again
here tonight, a decade later.

240
00:13:21,567 --> 00:13:23,235
Oh, and a slap by Alexa.

241
00:13:23,769 --> 00:13:25,838
IYO, taking a little bit too much time.

242
00:13:26,572 --> 00:13:29,375
[Corey] IYO said to Alexa,
Alexa did not appreciate.

243
00:13:30,242 --> 00:13:32,178
[Cole] This place is electric tonight.

244
00:13:32,912 --> 00:13:34,313
Bliss puts on the brakes.

245
00:13:34,380 --> 00:13:35,648
[IYO screams]

246
00:13:36,415 --> 00:13:38,517
And making IYO SKY suffer,

247
00:13:38,584 --> 00:13:42,388
Bliss now pounding SKY
face-first into the mat.

248
00:13:45,291 --> 00:13:48,561
Alexa Bliss, two-time Tag Team Champion.

249
00:13:48,627 --> 00:13:50,696
She's the first
SmackDown Women's Champion.

250
00:13:50,763 --> 00:13:52,131
Oh, and knees to the midsection.

251
00:13:52,198 --> 00:13:54,433
That right there's classic Bliss.

252
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:58,103
And here's the cover now on IYO.
Hook of the leg, and a kick-out.

253
00:13:58,170 --> 00:14:01,707
Alexa Bliss also won
the RAW Women's Championship,

254
00:14:02,942 --> 00:14:06,512
Money in the Bank, Elimination Chamber,
stellar career for Bliss.

255
00:14:07,580 --> 00:14:12,051
[Saxton] Let's look at that tag to Asuka,
IYO SKY with other plans.

256
00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:14,486
[Cole] And off the waistlock, Bliss.

257
00:14:15,087 --> 00:14:17,323
This is wildly--
Tag made, here comes Bayley.

258
00:14:17,389 --> 00:14:18,791
Now Bayley and Bliss.

259
00:14:19,692 --> 00:14:22,461
And again, the WWE fans…

260
00:14:22,528 --> 00:14:24,930
[Saxton] Bayley's got to get control
of her emotions here.

261
00:14:24,997 --> 00:14:26,265
[Cole] All over Bayley.

262
00:14:27,199 --> 00:14:28,867
But she's not taking it kindly.

263
00:14:30,236 --> 00:14:32,371
Tag. Here comes Dakota Kai.

264
00:14:34,506 --> 00:14:37,610
Dakota, two-time NXT Tag Team Champion.

265
00:14:38,844 --> 00:14:41,513
Wrestled all over the world,
including Japan and Australia.

266
00:14:41,580 --> 00:14:43,315
Another tag made to Bayley.

267
00:14:44,850 --> 00:14:47,887
[Corey] We often talk about superstars
with educated hands and feet.

268
00:14:47,953 --> 00:14:51,523
When it comes to Dakota Kai,
her feet have a PhD.

269
00:14:51,590 --> 00:14:54,927
-She is absolutely lethal.
-[Cole] And a team kick.

270
00:14:54,994 --> 00:14:57,696
And here comes Asuka,
the Empress of Tomorrow.

271
00:14:57,763 --> 00:14:59,798
Double-teamed now with Bliss.

272
00:14:59,865 --> 00:15:02,568
And Asuka, face-first goes Bayley.

273
00:15:02,635 --> 00:15:05,304
[Saxton] Continued strong
tag-team continuity

274
00:15:05,371 --> 00:15:07,706
between Alexa Bliss, Asuka and Belair.

275
00:15:11,310 --> 00:15:13,512
[Cole] Number-one trend
in the United States.

276
00:15:13,579 --> 00:15:16,215
#WWECastle.

277
00:15:16,282 --> 00:15:19,018
Hope you're enjoying
your Saturday afternoon with us

278
00:15:19,084 --> 00:15:23,055
if you're watching stateside
or morning in the West Coast.

279
00:15:27,559 --> 00:15:30,696
Now Bayley back in control,
but a waistlock by Asuka.

280
00:15:31,530 --> 00:15:33,232
IYO SKY makes the tag.

281
00:15:33,299 --> 00:15:35,000
And here comes IYO and Asuka.

282
00:15:37,503 --> 00:15:38,804
[Corey] Bayley from behind.

283
00:15:40,039 --> 00:15:41,874
[Cole] Asuka with a missile dropkick.

284
00:15:43,642 --> 00:15:44,977
[Saxton] Now here comes IYO!

285
00:15:45,044 --> 00:15:47,680
[Cole] Oh, the genius of the sky!

286
00:15:47,746 --> 00:15:49,715
Flying and takes the Empress down.

287
00:15:54,019 --> 00:15:56,989
[Saxton] Oh, I'm not sure
this is a wise decision, IYO.

288
00:15:57,990 --> 00:16:02,294
Bayley disrespecting Asuka.
And Asuka responds with force.

289
00:16:02,361 --> 00:16:04,797
[Cole] Oh, and look at IYO.
And a roll-up by Asuka.

290
00:16:04,863 --> 00:16:07,266
Sweet move there! And a kick-out.

291
00:16:08,934 --> 00:16:10,135
IYO SKY.

292
00:16:11,637 --> 00:16:13,605
[Corey] Back kick takes down Asuka.

293
00:16:14,206 --> 00:16:16,442
[Cole] Started wrestling
as a 16-year-old in Japan.

294
00:16:17,142 --> 00:16:19,345
Competed in Mexico as well.

295
00:16:20,512 --> 00:16:22,614
Tag made. Here comes Dakota.

296
00:16:23,983 --> 00:16:25,851
What are you making of the team
so far, Corey?

297
00:16:26,785 --> 00:16:30,089
[Corey] Bayley, IYO, and Dakota
have done a reasonably decent job

298
00:16:30,155 --> 00:16:31,323
of cutting the ring in half,

299
00:16:31,390 --> 00:16:33,325
which is ultimately the goal
in any tag scenario.

300
00:16:33,392 --> 00:16:35,394
-Cover.
-[Cole] Tag again by Dakota.

301
00:16:35,461 --> 00:16:36,729
The cover and a kick-out.

302
00:16:38,030 --> 00:16:40,733
[Corey] Not allowing Asuka anywhere
near Bianca Belair

303
00:16:40,799 --> 00:16:42,634
or Alexa Bliss in her own corner.

304
00:16:44,203 --> 00:16:46,372
Got to isolate one opponent

305
00:16:47,706 --> 00:16:49,441
and dismantle them systematically.

306
00:16:49,508 --> 00:16:50,509
No! No!

307
00:16:50,576 --> 00:16:53,312
[Corey] Bliss and Belair
were talking strategy moments ago.

308
00:16:53,379 --> 00:16:56,215
They realized that Asuka's in trouble
and needs to make a tag.

309
00:16:56,982 --> 00:16:59,184
[Cole] And Dakota doing a great job
isolating Asuka

310
00:16:59,251 --> 00:17:00,552
from her partner's tag again.

311
00:17:00,619 --> 00:17:03,655
And here comes
the self-proclaimed role model, Bayley.

312
00:17:05,424 --> 00:17:07,626
[Corey] And who wants no part
of being legal.

313
00:17:07,693 --> 00:17:10,896
[Cole] Bayley simply refusing
to perform for the sheep.

314
00:17:10,963 --> 00:17:12,031
[Corey] Yep, exactly.

315
00:17:12,097 --> 00:17:14,333
[Cole] At this stage of her career--

316
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:15,467
[all exclaim]

317
00:17:15,534 --> 00:17:18,170
[Saxton] Why is Bayley so concerned
about what the fans are saying,

318
00:17:18,237 --> 00:17:20,039
-what the fans are--
-[Cole] Here's the cover.

319
00:17:20,105 --> 00:17:21,440
Hook of the leg, and a kick-out.

320
00:17:21,507 --> 00:17:23,976
[Corey] Some questions
aren't meant to be answered, Saxton.

321
00:17:24,042 --> 00:17:26,412
How come you're, like, 50
and still single?

322
00:17:26,478 --> 00:17:30,015
[Cole] Here we go now. Again, IYO SKY!

323
00:17:30,082 --> 00:17:32,785
[Corey] Double knees
to the collarbones of Asuka.

324
00:17:32,851 --> 00:17:35,587
[Cole] Now Bayley trying to prevent Asuka
from making a tag.

325
00:17:36,255 --> 00:17:37,956
Tag, jump down or out, okay?

326
00:17:38,023 --> 00:17:39,625
[Corey] Both women reaching.

327
00:17:39,691 --> 00:17:41,627
[Saxton]
Bayley with the slight edge there.

328
00:17:41,693 --> 00:17:44,229
[Cole] Tag again.
And Asuka trying to fight out of it.

329
00:17:45,130 --> 00:17:48,133
Bayley sent through the ropes.
Tag made. Here comes Alexa Bliss.

330
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:49,735
Dakota, I believe, is legal, right?

331
00:17:49,802 --> 00:17:53,338
[Saxton] I think you're right.
Alexa focusing on Bayley on the outside.

332
00:17:54,706 --> 00:17:57,109
[Cole] And now the legal woman Dakota Kai

333
00:17:57,176 --> 00:17:59,445
sends Bliss into the barricade!

334
00:17:59,511 --> 00:18:01,480
-[referee] Four!
-Nice, nice.

335
00:18:01,547 --> 00:18:04,016
[Cole] That was smart strategy
by Dakota Kai.

336
00:18:04,082 --> 00:18:06,085
[Saxton] And you do
have to credit the knowledge

337
00:18:06,151 --> 00:18:09,088
that Bayley has imparted
upon Dakota Kai and IYO SKY

338
00:18:09,154 --> 00:18:11,423
over years of championship experience.

339
00:18:11,490 --> 00:18:13,025
[Corey] Well, you're right, Byron,

340
00:18:13,091 --> 00:18:16,128
but you also got to respect
the background of Dakota Kai, of IYO SKY,

341
00:18:16,195 --> 00:18:19,264
as we take another look
at the athleticism of Alexa Bliss.

342
00:18:19,331 --> 00:18:20,799
[Cole] And that wasn't all, Corey.

343
00:18:20,866 --> 00:18:24,970
Dakota Kai, who, again, is legal,
would drive Bliss into the barricade.

344
00:18:25,037 --> 00:18:29,775
[Corey] As far as time spent, Dakota Kai
has paid her dues all over the globe.

345
00:18:29,842 --> 00:18:32,144
Kai may be relatively new
to Monday Night RAW,

346
00:18:32,211 --> 00:18:33,612
but she is far from a rookie.

347
00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:36,682
[Cole] Beautiful suplex to Bliss,
floats into the cover,

348
00:18:36,748 --> 00:18:39,084
hook to the leg, and a kick-out by Alexa.

349
00:18:40,652 --> 00:18:41,920
[Corey] The same with IYO SKY.

350
00:18:41,987 --> 00:18:44,123
I mentioned before,
she started at a young age,

351
00:18:44,189 --> 00:18:45,791
performed all over the world.

352
00:18:45,858 --> 00:18:49,128
Extremely dominant NXT Women's Champion
in her own right.

353
00:18:51,129 --> 00:18:53,765
Held the title for over 300 days.

354
00:18:54,633 --> 00:18:56,635
As Bliss is sent into the corner.

355
00:18:57,236 --> 00:19:00,139
And Dakota and IYO and Bayley
having their way

356
00:19:00,205 --> 00:19:01,607
with Bliss and company right now.

357
00:19:02,307 --> 00:19:04,710
This is exactly what the game plan
had to look like.

358
00:19:04,776 --> 00:19:07,246
Cut the ring in half,
isolate somebody, and destroy them.

359
00:19:07,312 --> 00:19:09,648
-[Cole] And don't let Bianca in.
-[Corey] Agreed.

360
00:19:09,715 --> 00:19:13,352
You want to avoid the game-changing
power of the RAW Women's Champion.

361
00:19:16,922 --> 00:19:18,257
[Cole] Slowing the pace.

362
00:19:18,824 --> 00:19:21,159
Bliss able to put the brakes on
for the moment.

363
00:19:22,261 --> 00:19:26,565
Defiantly Alexa Bliss trying
to fight off the plans that IYO SKY has.

364
00:19:28,467 --> 00:19:33,305
Now Alexa Bliss with the upper hand,
delivering the forearms to IYO SKY.

365
00:19:35,207 --> 00:19:37,609
[Corey] Maybe it's the atmosphere,
but IYO SKY--

366
00:19:37,676 --> 00:19:38,944
-[Cole] Oh!
-Oh, my goodness.

367
00:19:39,011 --> 00:19:44,016
Looked a little uncertain for a moment,
usually sure-footed inside the ring.

368
00:19:44,816 --> 00:19:48,921
The litany of factors coming into play,
but right now, IYO in control once again.

369
00:19:48,987 --> 00:19:51,356
[Cole] There's a ton of pressure
here tonight, Corey.

370
00:19:51,423 --> 00:19:53,725
[Corey] Face-first goes Bliss.
It's overwhelming.

371
00:19:53,792 --> 00:19:55,427
You walk out of that entranceway,

372
00:19:55,494 --> 00:19:58,096
and you see 60,000-plus rabid members
of the WWE Universe.

373
00:19:58,163 --> 00:20:00,499
-It's hard not to be overwhelmed.
-[Cole] Here's the cover.

374
00:20:00,566 --> 00:20:01,833
Shoulders down, and a kick-out.

375
00:20:01,900 --> 00:20:04,002
I mean, this has been
the talk of the town for weeks,

376
00:20:04,069 --> 00:20:07,406
and the last couple of days, it was
a fever pitch here in downtown Cardiff.

377
00:20:07,472 --> 00:20:10,576
You could not go anywhere without people
talking about Clash at the Castle,

378
00:20:10,642 --> 00:20:13,345
wanting to see their favorite superstars
standing outside the hotel,

379
00:20:13,412 --> 00:20:14,746
looking to just get a photograph.

380
00:20:14,813 --> 00:20:17,249
And now you're the first match
of the night. Think about that.

381
00:20:17,316 --> 00:20:19,651
First time in over 30 years
we've had a stadium show

382
00:20:19,718 --> 00:20:21,286
here in the United Kingdom.

383
00:20:24,556 --> 00:20:27,259
To the credit of IYO SKY,
Dakota Kai and Bayley,

384
00:20:27,326 --> 00:20:30,963
on this stage, this high-pressure stage,
they're delivering right now.

385
00:20:31,029 --> 00:20:32,764
We saw the dominance over Asuka earlier,

386
00:20:32,831 --> 00:20:35,100
and now we're seeing the same
with Alexa Bliss.

387
00:20:36,468 --> 00:20:37,603
Hey, hey, hey!

388
00:20:38,804 --> 00:20:41,373
[Cole] Bliss trying desperately
to try to fight back in this.

389
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,242
[Corey] Ooh! Jawbreaker.

390
00:20:44,042 --> 00:20:45,877
[Cole] Tag, Dakota Kai's legal.

391
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:49,681
Oh, and Bliss.

392
00:20:50,282 --> 00:20:51,750
Caught IYO with an elbow.

393
00:20:51,817 --> 00:20:53,285
[Corey] Whoa, look at this.

394
00:20:53,352 --> 00:20:54,586
Again, Bliss had no--

395
00:20:54,653 --> 00:20:57,956
[Cole] Yeah, IYO's not the legal woman,
and this woman is Dakota Kai!

396
00:20:58,724 --> 00:21:01,159
-[Corey] Good night, Ms. Bliss.
-[Cole] Cover by Dakota.

397
00:21:01,226 --> 00:21:03,295
Is it enough to put Bliss away?

398
00:21:03,362 --> 00:21:06,231
Bliss kicks it, too,
and here's the situation, Corey.

399
00:21:06,298 --> 00:21:08,900
Bayley and company have outsmarted…

400
00:21:10,235 --> 00:21:13,472
Bianca and her team
since the beginning of this match.

401
00:21:13,538 --> 00:21:15,574
[Corey] It all comes down to chemistry.

402
00:21:15,641 --> 00:21:17,309
We mentioned it during the entrances.

403
00:21:17,376 --> 00:21:20,212
Bayley, SKY, and Kai as we look again

404
00:21:20,279 --> 00:21:23,181
at Bliss delivering
a sunset flip powerbomb

405
00:21:23,248 --> 00:21:27,252
and then nearly having the features
kicked off her face by Dakota Kai.

406
00:21:27,953 --> 00:21:30,789
Bayley and crew are a team
in every sense of the word.

407
00:21:30,856 --> 00:21:35,794
Bayley made sure that Dakota and IYO
arrived at SummerSlam with her.

408
00:21:35,861 --> 00:21:39,097
Bayley is taking responsibility
for their successes and their failures.

409
00:21:39,164 --> 00:21:41,033
-[Cole] Ooh!
-[Corey] This truly is a team.

410
00:21:41,099 --> 00:21:43,702
The other is a collection
of very talented individuals.

411
00:21:44,436 --> 00:21:46,338
[Cole] And Dakota sent flying by Bliss,

412
00:21:46,405 --> 00:21:49,808
and now Alexa understands
this is her opportunity

413
00:21:49,875 --> 00:21:52,177
to tag in the RAW Women's Champion.

414
00:21:52,244 --> 00:21:54,913
[Saxton] Going to fire it up.
RAW Women's Champion dying to tag!

415
00:21:54,980 --> 00:21:57,582
[Cole] Oh, and Bayley doesn't allow
the tag to happen.

416
00:21:58,950 --> 00:22:02,054
[Corey] Well, they're at a decision
to make, decided to focus on tagging--

417
00:22:02,120 --> 00:22:03,221
[all exclaim]

418
00:22:04,589 --> 00:22:05,590
[Cole] And now Bayley.

419
00:22:05,657 --> 00:22:08,860
You see, moments ago,
Bayley seemed to be feigning injury.

420
00:22:08,927 --> 00:22:12,931
And then she took advantage
once Belair was taken down!

421
00:22:12,998 --> 00:22:15,233
[Saxton] Once again, an opening for Bliss.

422
00:22:15,300 --> 00:22:17,069
[Cole] And here's Asuka!

423
00:22:17,135 --> 00:22:18,804
[Saxton] Asuka going up top.

424
00:22:18,870 --> 00:22:20,339
[Corey] Here comes IYO.

425
00:22:20,405 --> 00:22:22,674
[Cole] Oh, and the missile dropkick
from the top rope!

426
00:22:22,741 --> 00:22:27,245
IYO SKY's taken down.
And now blasting Dakota off the apron.

427
00:22:27,312 --> 00:22:31,350
Bayley now gonna suffer the fate--
Shoulder tackle.

428
00:22:32,084 --> 00:22:34,219
[Corey] Asuka right now like
a force of nature.

429
00:22:36,021 --> 00:22:40,392
Asuka understanding the desperate need
to shift the momentum in this matchup!

430
00:22:40,459 --> 00:22:41,560
[Saxton] Oh!

431
00:22:41,626 --> 00:22:44,963
[Cole] Knee caught IYO SKY in the back.
Couple of backhands.

432
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:48,500
Kick to the midsection.
Asuka coming from all directions.

433
00:22:48,567 --> 00:22:50,035
German suplex!

434
00:22:50,102 --> 00:22:51,636
[crowd cheering]

435
00:22:52,838 --> 00:22:55,073
[Corey] Sliding kick rocks IYO.

436
00:22:55,140 --> 00:22:57,809
[Cole] And a cover by Asuka
for the win in this match,

437
00:22:57,876 --> 00:23:00,245
and both Bayley and Dakota
breaking things up.

438
00:23:02,614 --> 00:23:06,184
[Saxton] Alexa Bliss back in the mix.
Turning her attention to Dakota Kai. Oof!

439
00:23:06,251 --> 00:23:09,121
[referee] What are you doing?
Get out of here, Dakota! Come on.

440
00:23:09,187 --> 00:23:11,123
[Cole] And now, oh, Bayley-to-Belly!

441
00:23:11,189 --> 00:23:12,457
Delivered to Bliss.

442
00:23:12,524 --> 00:23:14,793
[referee] Get out. Come on.
This one needs to be outside.

443
00:23:15,427 --> 00:23:17,028
These two in the ring here.

444
00:23:18,397 --> 00:23:19,531
[IYO] Yeah!

445
00:23:19,598 --> 00:23:22,000
[Corey] IYO looking for a kick.
Asuka sensed it coming.

446
00:23:22,067 --> 00:23:24,536
[Cole] Oh, wow!
What a kick to the side of the face.

447
00:23:24,603 --> 00:23:28,206
[Corey] Stopped the second one.
Here comes the tag and the role model.

448
00:23:28,273 --> 00:23:29,808
[Cole] And Bayley is legal.

449
00:23:30,942 --> 00:23:34,279
[Saxton] This could be a prime opportunity
for Bayley to put this thing away.

450
00:23:34,346 --> 00:23:36,214
[referee] Where are you going, IYO?
Come on.

451
00:23:36,281 --> 00:23:37,916
[Cole] A double team now.

452
00:23:37,983 --> 00:23:39,418
IYO up over the top.

453
00:23:40,819 --> 00:23:43,955
And Bayley with a running clothesline.

454
00:23:44,022 --> 00:23:47,626
Stacks up Asuka for the victory,
and a kick-out.

455
00:23:47,692 --> 00:23:50,228
[Corey] We've seen multiple
tag-team maneuvers

456
00:23:50,295 --> 00:23:52,164
from SKY, Kai and Bayley,

457
00:23:52,230 --> 00:23:53,865
not so much from the opposition.

458
00:23:54,433 --> 00:23:56,401
Just goes to show you
that they're functioning

459
00:23:56,468 --> 00:23:59,471
on a different level as a team, as a unit.

460
00:23:59,538 --> 00:24:02,007
The other issue right now
is that both Bianca Belair

461
00:24:02,073 --> 00:24:03,975
and Alexa Bliss
have been taken out of the mix.

462
00:24:04,042 --> 00:24:05,777
-Asuka's all alone.
-[Cole] Oh!

463
00:24:06,478 --> 00:24:10,015
And Bayley doesn't quite know
where she's at.

464
00:24:10,081 --> 00:24:12,984
Asuka trying to drag herself to the corner

465
00:24:13,051 --> 00:24:15,187
and tag in Bianca Belair, and she does.

466
00:24:15,253 --> 00:24:16,955
And here comes the RAW Women's Champion.

467
00:24:17,022 --> 00:24:21,626
And Bianca Belair into the ring,
and the pace is gonna pick up.

468
00:24:21,693 --> 00:24:24,362
[Saxton] Belair able to recover
just in time now

469
00:24:24,429 --> 00:24:25,797
and give her team a chance.

470
00:24:25,864 --> 00:24:27,632
[Cole] Hip-up by Belair

471
00:24:27,699 --> 00:24:30,502
is burying her shoulders
into Bayley's midsection.

472
00:24:31,603 --> 00:24:33,438
And this is the pace Belair wanted.

473
00:24:36,308 --> 00:24:38,476
Up over the top. What an athlete.

474
00:24:38,543 --> 00:24:39,544
[Bayley screams]

475
00:24:39,611 --> 00:24:42,414
[Cole] Oh, a spinebuster
just planting Bayley.

476
00:24:42,481 --> 00:24:45,016
Standing moonsault, cover for the win.

477
00:24:45,083 --> 00:24:48,186
Hooks the leg. Is it enough?
And a kick-out by Bayley at two.

478
00:24:50,322 --> 00:24:51,790
Bianca thought that was it.

479
00:24:51,857 --> 00:24:54,993
[Corey] If you're Bianca Belair, you need
to keep your foot on the gas pedal.

480
00:24:55,060 --> 00:24:57,095
This is the most momentum
her team has had,

481
00:24:57,162 --> 00:24:58,964
arguably, since the outset of this match.

482
00:25:00,098 --> 00:25:04,135
[Saxton] The momentum just got stunted
as Bayley tags in Dakota Kai.

483
00:25:04,202 --> 00:25:07,105
[Cole] And now Dakota will try her fair
over the RAW Women's Champion.

484
00:25:08,940 --> 00:25:09,975
[groans]

485
00:25:10,642 --> 00:25:13,278
Dakota's legal. I gotta count her.
Come on.

486
00:25:13,345 --> 00:25:15,614
Belair placing Bayley on the top rope.

487
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,016
[Cole] And you hear the official,
Shawn Bennett,

488
00:25:18,083 --> 00:25:19,885
is gonna count the legal woman,

489
00:25:19,951 --> 00:25:23,488
which is Dakota,
who's back into the ring now.

490
00:25:24,122 --> 00:25:25,857
[Corey] Great wherewithal by Belair.

491
00:25:28,059 --> 00:25:30,795
[Cole] And now Kai sending to IYO SKY.

492
00:25:30,862 --> 00:25:33,265
-Train wreck there at ringside.
-[Corey] Crash landing.

493
00:25:34,332 --> 00:25:35,800
-Bianca is--
-[Saxton] Oh, oh, oh.

494
00:25:35,867 --> 00:25:37,302
[Cole] Oh, and Bayley now…

495
00:25:38,937 --> 00:25:41,473
tying Belair up with her own braid.

496
00:25:41,540 --> 00:25:44,009
[Saxton] Now Alexa Bliss, Asuka
back in the mix.

497
00:25:44,075 --> 00:25:45,844
[Corey] They're basing on Bianca's back.

498
00:25:45,911 --> 00:25:46,912
[Saxton] What the--

499
00:25:48,513 --> 00:25:51,349
-Hardly unique, but--
-[Cole] Superplex!

500
00:25:51,416 --> 00:25:53,251
[crowd cheering]

501
00:25:53,318 --> 00:25:54,819
Thanks to Bianca.

502
00:25:58,823 --> 00:26:03,295
Over 60,000 WWE fans

503
00:26:03,361 --> 00:26:05,530
in Principality Stadium

504
00:26:05,597 --> 00:26:09,501
in Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom,
for Clash at the Castle.

505
00:26:09,568 --> 00:26:11,369
For the first time in over 30 years,

506
00:26:11,436 --> 00:26:16,341
the WWE is at a premium live event
in a stadium here in Europe.

507
00:26:19,277 --> 00:26:21,179
IYO SKY now…

508
00:26:21,246 --> 00:26:23,548
-Oh! On the second rope.
-[Saxton] Taking it to the air.

509
00:26:24,883 --> 00:26:26,518
[Corey] Look out from behind, the EST.

510
00:26:26,585 --> 00:26:28,653
[Cole] Bianca rolling up.

511
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,389
Dakota Kai now powering her up!

512
00:26:31,456 --> 00:26:34,659
[Saxton] The calling card of the EST.

513
00:26:34,726 --> 00:26:37,829
[Cole] Dakota, though,
looking to get out of it.

514
00:26:39,531 --> 00:26:41,032
Oh, and Bianca…

515
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,101
with a forearm.

516
00:26:43,168 --> 00:26:45,904
[Saxton] You can feel the determination
in Bianca Belair.

517
00:26:45,971 --> 00:26:47,839
[Cole] Yeah, you can feel the power,
as well.

518
00:26:47,906 --> 00:26:52,677
Bianca Belair is pressing Dakota's Kai
high above the ring.

519
00:26:52,744 --> 00:26:54,679
[Corey] Show up, show out.

520
00:26:55,313 --> 00:26:57,616
[Saxton] IYO SKY in the mix.
There goes IYO SKY.

521
00:26:57,682 --> 00:26:59,884
[Cole] Yeah, used Dakota as a weapon,
and now Bianca,

522
00:26:59,951 --> 00:27:01,586
oh, with a fallaway slam.

523
00:27:04,589 --> 00:27:07,292
[Corey] Bianca scrambling,
perhaps looking for a…

524
00:27:08,727 --> 00:27:12,263
win, but Dakota hanging on
for dear life to the bottom rope.

525
00:27:14,599 --> 00:27:16,134
Kai wanted a scorpion kick.

526
00:27:16,201 --> 00:27:19,170
[Saxton] Belair says, "Uh-uh.
"I got something else for you, Dakota."

527
00:27:19,237 --> 00:27:21,973
-[Dakota screams]
-[Cole] And Belair, oh, powerbomb!

528
00:27:22,841 --> 00:27:24,943
[Saxton] Almost broke Dakota in half.

529
00:27:26,511 --> 00:27:27,779
Now Belair.

530
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,051
Belair raising the stakes,
headed to the top floor.

531
00:27:33,118 --> 00:27:34,452
[Cole] Bianca, top rope,

532
00:27:34,519 --> 00:27:37,622
the RAW Women's Champion,
looking to fly.

533
00:27:39,491 --> 00:27:42,927
Has to roll through
as Kai rolls out of harm's way.

534
00:27:42,994 --> 00:27:45,230
[Corey] There it is!
Scorpion kick rocks the champ.

535
00:27:45,296 --> 00:27:48,933
[Cole] And Belair's in trouble. You saw
the eyes roll back in her head as she's…

536
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,435
Come on, Bianca!

537
00:27:50,502 --> 00:27:51,836
…suffered that kick.

538
00:27:51,903 --> 00:27:55,173
But Bianca rolls out of harm's way.
Dakota hung up now on the top rope.

539
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,642
[Saxton] Oh, Belair trying
to hoist up Dakota Kai!

540
00:27:57,709 --> 00:27:59,444
[Cole] IYO trying to hang on.

541
00:28:00,111 --> 00:28:02,914
[Corey] IYO able to shift
Dakota's momentum for the moment.

542
00:28:02,981 --> 00:28:06,518
[Cole] And now Bailey again
using Bianca's braid against her.

543
00:28:06,584 --> 00:28:08,987
And Dakota this time connects with a kick.

544
00:28:09,054 --> 00:28:11,056
[indistinct conversation]

545
00:28:12,424 --> 00:28:14,659
-[referee] Tag!
-[Corey] Dakota makes the tag.

546
00:28:14,726 --> 00:28:17,629
Here comes IYO SKY making the climb.

547
00:28:18,329 --> 00:28:21,599
[Cole] And Bailey with a Rose Plant
to the champion!

548
00:28:22,467 --> 00:28:25,236
And now IYO SKY with a moonsault!

549
00:28:25,303 --> 00:28:26,604
Bailey's legal.

550
00:28:26,671 --> 00:28:31,643
Bailey into the cover, stacks up,
and pins the RAW Women's Champion!

551
00:28:31,709 --> 00:28:33,344
[Damage CTRL's theme song playing]

552
00:28:33,411 --> 00:28:34,913
[announcer] Here are your winners,

553
00:28:34,979 --> 00:28:38,750
the team of Dakota Kai, IYO SKY

554
00:28:38,817 --> 00:28:41,319
and Bailey!

555
00:28:41,386 --> 00:28:45,356
[Cole] Bailey just pinned
the RAW Women's Champion, Bianca Belair,

556
00:28:45,423 --> 00:28:47,325
after a triple team!

557
00:28:47,392 --> 00:28:51,296
[Corey] If the goal was control
of the RAW Women's Division,

558
00:28:51,362 --> 00:28:53,364
Bailey, Dakota and IYO

559
00:28:53,431 --> 00:28:56,735
just ripped it out of the hands
of the RAW Women's Champion.

560
00:28:56,801 --> 00:28:59,737
[Saxton] A massive statement
made by these three ladies,

561
00:28:59,804 --> 00:29:02,140
but it took all three of them to do it.

562
00:29:03,208 --> 00:29:07,078
Bianca Belair was looking
for the K.O.D. on Dakota Kai,

563
00:29:07,145 --> 00:29:09,647
but check out the team of Bailey
holding the braid.

564
00:29:09,714 --> 00:29:11,483
Dakota Kai striking.

565
00:29:12,250 --> 00:29:14,085
And then after the Rose Plant,

566
00:29:14,152 --> 00:29:17,055
it would be IYO SKY

567
00:29:17,122 --> 00:29:20,125
living up to her name with the moonsault,

568
00:29:20,191 --> 00:29:25,864
and Bailey pinning
the RAW Women's Champion, Bianca Belair,

569
00:29:25,930 --> 00:29:28,099
to secure the victory for her team.

570
00:29:31,302 --> 00:29:35,640
[Cole] That was a massive win
for Bailey, Dakota Kai and IYO SKY.

571
00:29:37,675 --> 00:29:42,580
[Corey] It all came down to strategy
and chemistry as a team.

572
00:29:42,647 --> 00:29:44,649
[song continues]

573
00:29:58,496 --> 00:30:00,598
[upbeat music playing]

574
00:30:16,714 --> 00:30:18,216
[narrator] WWE Shop,

575
00:30:18,283 --> 00:30:20,151
now A Fanatics Experience.

576
00:30:22,253 --> 00:30:24,822
[Corey] The sands of time
are running thin.

577
00:30:24,889 --> 00:30:29,861
The undisputed WWE Universal Championship
on the line.

578
00:30:29,928 --> 00:30:32,163
Still to come, The Island of Relevancy's

579
00:30:32,230 --> 00:30:36,134
got to be a very lonely place
after The Scottish Warrior decimated

580
00:30:36,201 --> 00:30:38,903
the rest of The Bloodline
last night on SmackDown.

581
00:30:38,970 --> 00:30:41,105
Reigns, McIntyre still to come.

582
00:30:41,172 --> 00:30:43,174
[Cole] Yeah, there is
the number-one contender

583
00:30:43,241 --> 00:30:46,611
for the Undisputed Championship,
Scotland's Drew McIntyre

584
00:30:46,678 --> 00:30:49,881
drawing some inspiration earlier today
from the Gypsy King,

585
00:30:49,948 --> 00:30:53,785
two-time World Heavyweight
Boxing Champion Tyson Fury,

586
00:30:53,851 --> 00:30:57,322
millennial heavyweight champ
from Manchester, England.

587
00:30:57,388 --> 00:31:01,526
And Tyson Fury is here tonight,
front row, ringside, right behind us.

588
00:31:01,593 --> 00:31:04,362
Byron, duck your head.
He may just knock you out.

589
00:31:04,429 --> 00:31:06,798
[Saxton] I'm hoping
to get a selfie, actually.

590
00:31:06,865 --> 00:31:09,167
[Cole] We are at Municipalities…

591
00:31:09,234 --> 00:31:12,036
We are at Principality Stadium,
Cardiff, Wales, here tonight.

592
00:31:12,103 --> 00:31:14,339
And, guys, the last time
we were in the United Kingdom

593
00:31:14,405 --> 00:31:17,909
for a stadium show was over 30 years ago.

594
00:31:17,976 --> 00:31:21,479
It was August 31st, 1992,

595
00:31:21,546 --> 00:31:25,049
Wembley Stadium for SummerSlam.

596
00:31:25,116 --> 00:31:28,052
Hometown favorite, the British Bulldog,

597
00:31:28,119 --> 00:31:31,055
would challenge
the excellence of execution,

598
00:31:31,122 --> 00:31:34,993
Bret "The Hitman" Hart,
in the main event of SummerSlam

599
00:31:35,059 --> 00:31:37,462
for the Intercontinental Championship.

600
00:31:37,528 --> 00:31:40,431
And it truly was a family affair.

601
00:31:40,498 --> 00:31:43,701
[Saxton] Bret "The Hitman" Hart taking
on his, at the time, brother-in-law,

602
00:31:43,768 --> 00:31:45,403
the British Bulldog, Davey Boy Smith,

603
00:31:45,470 --> 00:31:47,805
one of the rare times
that the Intercontinental title

604
00:31:47,872 --> 00:31:52,043
was defended in the main event
of an event like SummerSlam.

605
00:31:52,110 --> 00:31:53,578
But this was just magical.

606
00:31:53,645 --> 00:31:56,748
The British Bulldog
blocking the sunset flip attempt

607
00:31:56,814 --> 00:31:58,216
of Bret "The Hitman" Hart

608
00:31:58,283 --> 00:32:03,021
and capturing the Intercontinental title
in his hometown.

609
00:32:03,087 --> 00:32:06,624
[Cole] It was a match
that has been labeled the greatest match

610
00:32:06,691 --> 00:32:10,028
in the history of SummerSlam.

611
00:32:16,167 --> 00:32:17,635
[announcer] Thirty years ago,

612
00:32:17,702 --> 00:32:22,307
two superstars competed in one
of the greatest matches of all time,

613
00:32:22,373 --> 00:32:24,676
right here, in the United Kingdom.

614
00:32:25,376 --> 00:32:29,314
Please welcome the family
of WWE Hall of Famer,

615
00:32:29,380 --> 00:32:33,384
the British Bulldog, Davey Boy Smith!

616
00:32:33,451 --> 00:32:35,453
[crowd cheering]

617
00:32:36,688 --> 00:32:40,758
And WWE Hall of Famer, the best there is,

618
00:32:40,825 --> 00:32:44,662
the best there was,
and the best there ever will be,

619
00:32:44,729 --> 00:32:48,099
Bret "The Hitman" Hart!

620
00:32:55,306 --> 00:32:58,743
[Cole] It's always great to see
Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

621
00:32:58,810 --> 00:33:02,246
[Corey] The sign behind "The Hitman" says,
"30 years, what took you so long?

622
00:33:02,313 --> 00:33:04,349
I couldn't agree anymore.
I'm glad we're here.

623
00:33:04,415 --> 00:33:08,820
[Cole] You know he's gonna like this match
because, guys, it's fight night!

624
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,689
[Saxton] I was waiting for you
to say that, Michael.

625
00:33:13,191 --> 00:33:15,193
[crowd cheering]

626
00:33:15,259 --> 00:33:17,261
[Sheamus' theme music playing]

627
00:33:28,139 --> 00:33:31,209
[Cole] You know, for Sheamus,
he has an opportunity tonight

628
00:33:31,275 --> 00:33:32,910
to win the ultimate Grand Slam.

629
00:33:32,977 --> 00:33:35,880
There's one title he has not held at WWE,

630
00:33:35,947 --> 00:33:37,982
that's the Intercontinental Championship.

631
00:33:38,049 --> 00:33:40,952
Sheamus has been WWE World Champion,

632
00:33:41,019 --> 00:33:43,421
United States Champion, Tag Team Champion,

633
00:33:43,488 --> 00:33:46,224
Money in the Bank, King of the Ring,
Royal Rumble winner,

634
00:33:46,290 --> 00:33:48,693
but he has yet to win
the prestigious Intercontinental title.

635
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:50,094
He could do it tonight.

636
00:33:50,161 --> 00:33:52,130
[Saxton] If you're looking
at a career of Sheamus,

637
00:33:52,196 --> 00:33:54,532
you're looking at a future Hall of Famer,
without question.

638
00:33:54,599 --> 00:33:56,501
Sheamus has nothing left
to prove in his career,

639
00:33:56,567 --> 00:34:00,805
but his competitive spirit
is so high, so massive,

640
00:34:00,872 --> 00:34:04,942
that he wants that accomplishment
to add to his incredible resume.

641
00:34:05,009 --> 00:34:08,946
He wants to finally be able
to call himself Intercontinental Champion.

642
00:34:09,013 --> 00:34:12,850
[Corey] Tonight, with Ridge Holland
and Butch on his sides,

643
00:34:12,917 --> 00:34:16,754
it very well may become a reality
for the Celtic Warrior.

644
00:34:16,821 --> 00:34:20,058
[Cole] Sheamus, a far cry
from Irish Whip Wrestling

645
00:34:20,124 --> 00:34:22,460
or Wales Celtic wrestling,

646
00:34:22,527 --> 00:34:25,496
where he cut his teeth
here in the United Kingdom.

647
00:34:26,597 --> 00:34:30,134
Tonight, Sheamus sets his sight
on the Intercontinental Championship.

648
00:34:30,668 --> 00:34:33,838
[Corey] I saw Ridge dragging Butch out
of a pub in the city center last night.

649
00:34:33,905 --> 00:34:35,640
That's how I knew
I was in the right place.

650
00:34:40,478 --> 00:34:45,683
Ladies and gentlemen…

651
00:34:48,886 --> 00:34:55,760
I demand all your gratitude

652
00:34:55,827 --> 00:35:02,100
for Giovanni Vinci!

653
00:35:02,166 --> 00:35:03,935
[crowd cheering]

654
00:35:04,001 --> 00:35:05,336
[Cole] Imperium!

655
00:35:06,170 --> 00:35:10,475
And now, the leader

656
00:35:10,541 --> 00:35:13,811
of Imperium…

657
00:35:13,878 --> 00:35:16,214
[crowd cheering]

658
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:22,587
…your Intercontinental Champion…

659
00:35:25,423 --> 00:35:31,896
"The Ring General…"

660
00:35:32,897 --> 00:35:36,734
Gunther!

661
00:35:36,801 --> 00:35:38,803
[Gunther's theme song playing]

662
00:35:47,378 --> 00:35:50,815
[Corey] I cannot believe my eyes!

663
00:35:50,882 --> 00:35:55,920
The Ring General has reassembled Imperium,

664
00:35:55,987 --> 00:36:00,625
no doubt to combat the threat posed
by The Brawling Brutes.

665
00:36:00,691 --> 00:36:05,329
[Saxton] Now, one last curveball thrown
by the Intercontinental Champion.

666
00:36:05,396 --> 00:36:07,265
I'd love to think
what's going through the mind

667
00:36:07,331 --> 00:36:09,200
right now of Sheamus
and The Brawling Brutes.

668
00:36:09,267 --> 00:36:10,701
[Corey] The puzzle is complete.

669
00:36:10,768 --> 00:36:15,873
Giovanni Vinci flanking
the Intercontinental Champion

670
00:36:15,940 --> 00:36:19,310
alongside Ludwig Kaiser

671
00:36:20,077 --> 00:36:23,314
as Gunther prepares for battle.

672
00:36:23,381 --> 00:36:26,317
[Cole] You saw the look
on the face of Sheamus moments ago.

673
00:36:26,384 --> 00:36:29,120
Imperium, one of the most dominant,

674
00:36:29,187 --> 00:36:33,324
one of the most intimidating
and fearless groups

675
00:36:33,391 --> 00:36:35,092
that we've seen.

676
00:36:35,159 --> 00:36:37,795
[Corey] Cole, as soon as this match
was made official,

677
00:36:37,862 --> 00:36:39,363
I sent you a text message

678
00:36:39,430 --> 00:36:42,833
about how excited I am to be ringside

679
00:36:42,900 --> 00:36:46,470
for what will no doubt
be one of the hardest-hitting matchups

680
00:36:46,537 --> 00:36:48,739
in WWE history.

681
00:36:48,806 --> 00:36:51,242
[Cole]
For the Intercontinental Championship,

682
00:36:51,909 --> 00:36:55,079
Gunther and Sheamus face-to-face,

683
00:36:55,146 --> 00:36:59,183
two of the most physical men
to ever grace a WWE ring.

684
00:37:00,351 --> 00:37:03,387
[Corey] There may be 60,000-plus
here in this stadium,

685
00:37:03,454 --> 00:37:06,324
but Gunther is only concerned
by the 20-by-20.

686
00:37:06,390 --> 00:37:08,326
[Cole] And here we go, and Ludwig Kaiser,

687
00:37:08,392 --> 00:37:11,229
who lost a match to Butch last night
on SmackDown.

688
00:37:11,996 --> 00:37:15,433
[Corey] With the stoic champion
and challenger in the center of the ring,

689
00:37:15,499 --> 00:37:18,035
unbothered, focused on the task at hand!

690
00:37:18,102 --> 00:37:20,571
Butch is launched to the outside.

691
00:37:20,638 --> 00:37:22,473
[Cole] And now Vinci goes after Holland,

692
00:37:22,540 --> 00:37:24,842
and Gunther and Sheamus
have yet to move.

693
00:37:24,909 --> 00:37:26,043
Staring at each other,

694
00:37:26,110 --> 00:37:29,146
much like what happened
a couple of weeks ago on SmackDown.

695
00:37:29,213 --> 00:37:31,983
Both men locked and ready to go

696
00:37:32,049 --> 00:37:34,619
as the brawl continues outside the ring.

697
00:37:34,685 --> 00:37:37,221
[Corey] But, Gunther, the mat is sacred,

698
00:37:37,288 --> 00:37:41,058
-And tonight, the champion is ready for--
-[Cole] Oh, watch Butch. Watch Butch!

699
00:37:41,125 --> 00:37:45,062
And Butch taking out Kaiser and Vinci.

700
00:37:45,129 --> 00:37:49,033
[Saxton] And Sheamus and Gunther
still have not moved.

701
00:37:49,100 --> 00:37:50,668
[Corey] The mat is sacred to Gunther.

702
00:37:50,735 --> 00:37:54,038
Tonight, he is prepared for a holy war

703
00:37:54,105 --> 00:37:55,906
for his Intercontinental Championship.

704
00:37:55,973 --> 00:37:58,075
-Here we go!
-[Cole] And now the match is underway!

705
00:37:58,142 --> 00:38:00,544
And Gunther and Sheamus
for the Intercontinental title,

706
00:38:00,611 --> 00:38:02,747
slugging it out as the mat,
the bell rings,

707
00:38:02,813 --> 00:38:04,148
and this is gonna be a war.

708
00:38:04,215 --> 00:38:06,484
[Corey] I can't help
but think of Robbie Brookside, Cole.

709
00:38:06,550 --> 00:38:08,686
You better grit your teeth, mate.

710
00:38:09,353 --> 00:38:10,588
[Cole] Oh!

711
00:38:10,655 --> 00:38:14,158
[Corey] And Sheamus trying
to get the upper hand

712
00:38:14,225 --> 00:38:15,660
on the Intercontinental Champion.

713
00:38:15,726 --> 00:38:17,461
[Saxton] This one
won't be about technique.

714
00:38:17,528 --> 00:38:18,929
This is about brute force.

715
00:38:18,996 --> 00:38:21,032
[Cole] About beating
the hell out of each other.

716
00:38:21,098 --> 00:38:23,000
[Saxton] We have the ice bath,
the bio-freeze,

717
00:38:23,067 --> 00:38:25,102
the physical therapist on standby.

718
00:38:26,003 --> 00:38:28,005
-[Cole] Oh!
-[Corey] And a chop by Gunther.

719
00:38:28,072 --> 00:38:31,208
Ringing throughout Principality Stadium
here in Cardiff tonight.

720
00:38:31,275 --> 00:38:33,811
But in a match
where the stakes are this high,

721
00:38:33,878 --> 00:38:35,546
the mental wounds may never heal.

722
00:38:35,613 --> 00:38:40,151
[Cole] And Sheamus' chest already
beat red after the chops by Gunther,

723
00:38:40,217 --> 00:38:42,586
who floors Sheamus with a big boot,

724
00:38:42,653 --> 00:38:46,824
and the 6'4",
250-pound Austrian is in control.

725
00:38:46,891 --> 00:38:50,728
Look at Sheamus already beaten up
by the Intercontinental Champion.

726
00:38:50,795 --> 00:38:52,463
[Saxton] Sheamus isn't used to this.

727
00:38:52,530 --> 00:38:54,932
Usually, it's Sheamus
who's the physical aggressor

728
00:38:54,999 --> 00:38:56,000
in the matchup.

729
00:38:56,067 --> 00:39:00,371
[Corey] Oh, make no mistake, Byron.
Sheamus enjoys this as much as anybody.

730
00:39:00,438 --> 00:39:02,573
[Cole] Suplex by Sheamus.

731
00:39:05,309 --> 00:39:07,378
[Saxton] Both these men,
similar trajectories.

732
00:39:07,445 --> 00:39:11,515
Gunther becoming Intercontinental Champion
two months into his debut on SmackDown.

733
00:39:11,582 --> 00:39:16,187
Sheamus winning the WWE title
his rookie year here in WWE.

734
00:39:16,253 --> 00:39:18,823
[Cole] Gunther talking
about wanting to bring prestige back

735
00:39:18,889 --> 00:39:19,990
to the championship.

736
00:39:22,593 --> 00:39:25,196
Sheamus across the ring.
Gunther telegraphed it.

737
00:39:25,262 --> 00:39:28,099
Sheamus with a kick to the shoulder,
now a kick right to the midsection.

738
00:39:28,165 --> 00:39:32,570
Remember, 1979, Pat Patterson,
the late, great Hall of Famer,

739
00:39:32,636 --> 00:39:34,805
the first-ever Intercontinental Champion,

740
00:39:34,872 --> 00:39:37,842
and dozens of Hall of Famers
have held the title over the years.

741
00:39:37,908 --> 00:39:40,077
It's been known
as the Workman's Championship,

742
00:39:40,144 --> 00:39:45,282
defended every day across the globe
like Gunther's doing here tonight.

743
00:39:45,349 --> 00:39:47,451
[crowd cheering]

744
00:39:49,153 --> 00:39:51,422
[Corey] But Sheamus went
for Ten Beats of the Bodhrán,

745
00:39:51,489 --> 00:39:54,658
and Gunther able to drop down to the floor
and out of harm's way.

746
00:39:54,725 --> 00:39:56,293
-[Cole] Oh, my God.
-[Corey] Maybe not.

747
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,763
[Saxton] I was gonna say,
"Gunther's safe now," but nope.

748
00:39:59,497 --> 00:40:05,202
[Cole] And now Sheamus sending Gunther
into the step shoulder first,

749
00:40:05,269 --> 00:40:08,172
and Sheamus has taken
control of the champion.

750
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:11,942
Sheamus promised
that he was going to bring Gunther

751
00:40:12,009 --> 00:40:14,111
into the belly of the red dragon.

752
00:40:16,914 --> 00:40:18,115
Four!

753
00:40:21,819 --> 00:40:24,522
[Saxton] Not often we see Gunther
in a vulnerable position,

754
00:40:24,588 --> 00:40:28,125
but that's exactly where he is right now,
courtesy of Sheamus.

755
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,163
Sheamus is gonna try this one more time.

756
00:40:34,398 --> 00:40:36,934
[Corey] Gunther's fighting like hell
to avoid it.

757
00:40:40,070 --> 00:40:42,406
[Cole] Trying to wrap Gunther's arms
to set him up

758
00:40:42,473 --> 00:40:44,375
for Ten Beats of the Bodhrán.

759
00:40:48,646 --> 00:40:51,849
[Saxton] Gunther's too powerful
at this juncture of the match.

760
00:40:54,051 --> 00:40:55,753
[Cole] Sheamus with the right of his own.

761
00:40:57,054 --> 00:40:59,457
[Corey] Heavy forearms
from the Celtic warrior.

762
00:41:00,357 --> 00:41:03,494
[Cole] Now, Gunther so quick
as well for his size.

763
00:41:03,561 --> 00:41:04,829
Did you hear that?

764
00:41:06,297 --> 00:41:07,531
[crowd exclaims]

765
00:41:07,598 --> 00:41:09,366
[Saxton] I believe it was Gunther who said

766
00:41:09,433 --> 00:41:12,269
that he was going to chop
Sheamus' chest into bloody bits.

767
00:41:13,838 --> 00:41:17,241
[Corey] Two boots from the challenger
takes down the champion.

768
00:41:17,308 --> 00:41:19,610
Tremendous upper-body strength.

769
00:41:21,078 --> 00:41:24,582
[Saxton] And Gunther right there
to meet Sheamus again.

770
00:41:24,648 --> 00:41:27,985
[Cole] A chop that knocks Sheamus
off the ropes to the floor!

771
00:41:30,154 --> 00:41:32,356
-Listen! Oh, my God!
-[crowd exclaims]

772
00:41:34,959 --> 00:41:36,093
[Corey] This has been…

773
00:41:38,362 --> 00:41:41,398
[Cole] You talk to people who've been
in the ring with Gunther, Corey,

774
00:41:41,465 --> 00:41:45,803
they call him the most physical man
they've ever been inside the ring with.

775
00:41:45,870 --> 00:41:49,673
[Corey] We are getting a first-hand look.
It doesn't get any closer than this.

776
00:41:49,740 --> 00:41:50,808
[referee] One!

777
00:41:51,542 --> 00:41:52,676
[Saxton] Ooh!

778
00:41:54,111 --> 00:41:56,780
[Corey] WWE fans
remembering Gunther's past.

779
00:41:57,781 --> 00:42:02,186
And Gunther now scooping Sheamus up
and slamming him out of the steps!

780
00:42:02,253 --> 00:42:04,355
[Saxton] Spine first.

781
00:42:05,089 --> 00:42:07,258
[Cole] And the champion
unafraid to bend the rules,

782
00:42:07,324 --> 00:42:09,193
knowing the champion's advantage dictates

783
00:42:09,260 --> 00:42:11,962
Sheamus has to pin Gunther
or make him submit

784
00:42:12,029 --> 00:42:13,731
to become Intercontinental Champion.

785
00:42:13,797 --> 00:42:17,034
[Corey] Sheamus trying to drag him back,
his way back into the ring.

786
00:42:18,002 --> 00:42:20,437
The official, at a count of seven,

787
00:42:20,504 --> 00:42:24,008
has over 60,000 here
at Principality Stadium.

788
00:42:24,074 --> 00:42:25,542
Look on in Cardiff.

789
00:42:25,609 --> 00:42:30,381
And at a count of nine, Sheamus
barely beats the count back in the ring.

790
00:42:32,349 --> 00:42:35,386
[Cole] Sheamus is battered.
Sheamus is weakened.

791
00:42:37,021 --> 00:42:40,958
This stadium, the home of the Wales
National Rugby Union team.

792
00:42:41,025 --> 00:42:43,093
Sheamus, who played rugby in college,

793
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,697
should feel at home here
and still fighting back.

794
00:42:46,764 --> 00:42:48,499
[Corey] Right on the ear of Gunther.

795
00:42:51,302 --> 00:42:52,736
[crowd exclaims]

796
00:42:53,604 --> 00:42:56,373
[Saxton] Sheamus just crumbles
to the ground

797
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,742
after that chop from Gunther.

798
00:42:58,809 --> 00:43:01,979
[Corey] And the Celtic Warrior's chest
is starting to look like hamburger.

799
00:43:07,952 --> 00:43:09,920
[Cole] And a kick for good measure
in the spine.

800
00:43:09,987 --> 00:43:12,523
Gunther right now in total control.

801
00:43:13,591 --> 00:43:15,492
[crowd chanting] Let's go, Sheamus!

802
00:43:15,559 --> 00:43:18,996
[Saxton] Imagine a feather in the cap
of Gunther's career

803
00:43:19,063 --> 00:43:23,033
to defeat Sheamus
here at Clash at the Castle.

804
00:43:24,134 --> 00:43:27,438
[Cole] How can Sheamus even breathe,
let alone fight back?

805
00:43:31,575 --> 00:43:33,677
[Corey] Oh, my God.

806
00:43:33,744 --> 00:43:36,614
[Corey] Gunther just kicked
Sheamus so hard, I lost a tooth.

807
00:43:37,781 --> 00:43:40,217
My God, the brutality!

808
00:43:41,785 --> 00:43:42,786
[Cole] Oh!

809
00:43:42,853 --> 00:43:45,489
[Saxton] This has just
been physicality on overload.

810
00:43:45,556 --> 00:43:47,524
[Cole] And uncomfortable
is what it's been.

811
00:43:47,591 --> 00:43:49,560
-[referee] Two!
-[Sheamus groans]

812
00:43:49,627 --> 00:43:51,996
[Saxton] Gunther is striking at will.

813
00:43:52,963 --> 00:43:58,369
[Cole] For every punch by Sheamus,
there's another dozen from Gunther.

814
00:43:59,169 --> 00:44:00,337
Watch this.

815
00:44:01,705 --> 00:44:05,009
Boom! Collapsing the side
of the face of Sheamus.

816
00:44:05,976 --> 00:44:07,645
[Corey] Sheamus looks all out of sorts.

817
00:44:10,014 --> 00:44:12,149
[Cole] I don't even know how
he can breathe,

818
00:44:12,216 --> 00:44:13,550
pull himself back to his feet.

819
00:44:13,617 --> 00:44:16,253
[Saxton] And then again, Sheamus,
you can actually--

820
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:17,721
-[Cole] Oh!
-[Saxton] Determination!

821
00:44:17,788 --> 00:44:19,757
[Corey] Well, there was determination
on his face.

822
00:44:19,823 --> 00:44:21,025
[Cole] Or defiance.

823
00:44:23,427 --> 00:44:26,030
[Corey] The Ring General demands
you fall in line.

824
00:44:26,096 --> 00:44:29,366
You do not defy
the Intercontinental Champion.

825
00:44:32,803 --> 00:44:33,937
[Cole] And now…

826
00:44:35,339 --> 00:44:38,442
Gunther trying to push Sheamus
on his belly,

827
00:44:38,509 --> 00:44:39,910
perhaps for a Boston crab.

828
00:44:39,977 --> 00:44:41,178
[groans]

829
00:44:41,779 --> 00:44:44,014
Gunther hasn't been able to do that,
now locks in.

830
00:44:44,081 --> 00:44:46,350
And Sheamus in the middle
of the ring with nowhere to go,

831
00:44:46,417 --> 00:44:48,852
and you have to ask
if Sheamus is gonna tap out,

832
00:44:48,919 --> 00:44:51,121
or will he make it to the bottom rope?

833
00:44:51,188 --> 00:44:53,524
[Saxton] I think Sheamus is too proud
to tap out.

834
00:44:54,391 --> 00:44:57,661
[Corey] I'm not sure how Sheamus
can make it to that bottom rope.

835
00:44:57,728 --> 00:44:59,630
[Saxton] It doesn't matter
how proud you are.

836
00:44:59,696 --> 00:45:02,800
Sometimes the human body
can only stand so much punishment.

837
00:45:03,534 --> 00:45:04,935
[Cole] Now turns things…

838
00:45:06,670 --> 00:45:08,072
to a crossface.

839
00:45:10,974 --> 00:45:13,510
Or attempting to, anyway,
and Sheamus looking to block.

840
00:45:15,679 --> 00:45:18,816
-Sheamus trying to power out of this.
-[Gunther screams]

841
00:45:19,450 --> 00:45:21,118
[Corey] Sheamus with the knuckle lock.

842
00:45:22,052 --> 00:45:23,387
Oh, Gunther!

843
00:45:23,454 --> 00:45:26,723
At the time, writhing in pain,
but able to turn things around again,

844
00:45:26,790 --> 00:45:28,759
and now a chop to the back of the neck.

845
00:45:28,826 --> 00:45:31,328
[Corey] Right between the shoulder blades.

846
00:45:31,929 --> 00:45:33,931
[crowd cheering]

847
00:45:35,799 --> 00:45:37,768
[Cole] Absolute punishment.

848
00:45:39,136 --> 00:45:42,673
[Corey] I think reality just kicked in
for the Celtic Warrior.

849
00:45:42,740 --> 00:45:44,942
You can see the look
on the face of Sheamus.

850
00:45:45,008 --> 00:45:47,644
The Celtic Warrior knows he's in a fight.

851
00:45:47,711 --> 00:45:49,613
[crowd chanting] Let's go, Sheamus!

852
00:45:50,414 --> 00:45:52,416
Let's go, Sheamus!

853
00:45:54,351 --> 00:45:59,723
[Saxton] This match is a real gut-check
between Sheamus and Gunther.

854
00:45:59,790 --> 00:46:01,625
[Cole] How does Sheamus
have anything left?

855
00:46:01,692 --> 00:46:04,661
And how is he able to fight back
and try to change the momentum?

856
00:46:04,728 --> 00:46:06,864
But maybe not. Now right to the kidneys.

857
00:46:06,930 --> 00:46:09,600
[Corey] Guts, will, instinct, pride.

858
00:46:09,666 --> 00:46:11,735
That's what's fueling Sheamus right now.

859
00:46:11,802 --> 00:46:13,537
[Cole] And to try to win the championship,

860
00:46:13,604 --> 00:46:16,173
the one championship
that he hasn't been able to gain

861
00:46:16,240 --> 00:46:18,408
in his career here in WWE.

862
00:46:21,311 --> 00:46:24,715
-[Cole] Oh!
-[Corey laughing] Oh, my God!

863
00:46:24,781 --> 00:46:27,351
[Saxton] How many of these chops
can Sheamus absorb?

864
00:46:28,886 --> 00:46:31,688
[Corey] I can't believe
Sheamus' flesh is still intact.

865
00:46:34,057 --> 00:46:36,560
[Cole] And this is the pace
that Gunther loves.

866
00:46:37,127 --> 00:46:39,730
Look at this. Oh, goodness!

867
00:46:39,797 --> 00:46:42,966
[Corey] From shoulder to shoulder impact.

868
00:46:43,033 --> 00:46:45,702
That's not your typical knife-edge chop.

869
00:46:45,769 --> 00:46:49,039
That is the bottom half of
the Intercontinental Champion's arm

870
00:46:49,106 --> 00:46:52,409
being swung like a Louisville Slugger
across your chest.

871
00:46:52,476 --> 00:46:55,312
[Cole] When is the last time
you guys have seen Sheamus

872
00:46:55,379 --> 00:46:57,114
dominated in this fashion?

873
00:46:58,015 --> 00:47:00,284
[Corey] I honestly can't recall
off the top of my head.

874
00:47:00,350 --> 00:47:01,885
It has been that long.

875
00:47:08,826 --> 00:47:10,961
[Saxton] Sheamus tearing daggers…

876
00:47:12,095 --> 00:47:16,633
into the Intercontinental Champion
still with fight left in his heart.

877
00:47:16,700 --> 00:47:18,535
[crowd cheering]

878
00:47:21,138 --> 00:47:23,407
[Cole] And here comes Sheamus
fighting back now,

879
00:47:23,473 --> 00:47:25,809
trying to change momentum of the match.

880
00:47:25,876 --> 00:47:28,345
[Corey] I was going to say,
did Sheamus have anything left?

881
00:47:28,412 --> 00:47:30,347
And Gunther able to bury him
in the corner.

882
00:47:30,414 --> 00:47:32,115
[Saxton] Was that a last gasp
from Sheamus?

883
00:47:32,182 --> 00:47:35,452
[Cole] And now Sheamus dumped out right
in front of us here at the announce table.

884
00:47:35,519 --> 00:47:37,387
And Gunther out for the fight, as well.

885
00:47:37,454 --> 00:47:39,122
And this does not look good, gentlemen.

886
00:47:39,189 --> 00:47:42,092
Gunther is lifting Sheamus up
and plants him on the floor!

887
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,797
[Corey] Colossal body slam
on the outside of the ring.

888
00:47:46,864 --> 00:47:50,367
And I have a feeling
Gunther's not finished yet.

889
00:47:50,434 --> 00:47:54,071
[Cole] And now sending Sheamus
right over the table into the chair!

890
00:47:56,139 --> 00:47:58,275
Again, guys, I've got to ask the question.

891
00:47:59,810 --> 00:48:02,379
Do you ever remember Sheamus
being dominated in this manner?

892
00:48:02,446 --> 00:48:03,647
[Corey] I don't. I don't.

893
00:48:03,714 --> 00:48:05,883
But I can tell you
that as long as there is breath

894
00:48:05,949 --> 00:48:08,919
in the lungs of Sheamus,
he will continue to fight.

895
00:48:08,986 --> 00:48:11,054
[Cole] This has been a--
Oh, and now Sheamus!

896
00:48:11,121 --> 00:48:12,222
Trying to turn the tables.

897
00:48:12,289 --> 00:48:15,492
Bouncing Gunther
off the announce table a couple of times.

898
00:48:15,559 --> 00:48:18,195
And now Sheamus has Gunther
where he wants him!

899
00:48:18,262 --> 00:48:20,864
The wild eyes of the Celtic Warrior!

900
00:48:21,999 --> 00:48:24,101
[Saxton] And a hole into the chest!

901
00:48:24,701 --> 00:48:28,472
[Cole] And Gunther now trying to escape,
trying to retreat.

902
00:48:28,538 --> 00:48:32,409
And a clothesline, and Sheamus
is somehow back in the game.

903
00:48:32,476 --> 00:48:34,311
[Saxton] This is remarkable from Sheamus.

904
00:48:35,979 --> 00:48:38,515
After all the punishment
this man has taken.

905
00:48:38,582 --> 00:48:39,583
[crowd cheering]

906
00:48:39,650 --> 00:48:43,787
[Corey] This goes to show you the type
of X-Factor the live crowd can play.

907
00:48:43,854 --> 00:48:48,926
Fellow Europeans standing behind Sheamus,
driving the challenger forward.

908
00:48:48,992 --> 00:48:50,327
[crowd counting]

909
00:48:50,394 --> 00:48:51,929
[Saxton] With every hit, Sheamus…

910
00:48:51,995 --> 00:48:53,964
[crowd counting]

911
00:48:54,731 --> 00:48:57,367
…can taste the Intercontinental title.

912
00:48:57,434 --> 00:49:01,505
[Cole] And Gunther trying to escape
the Ten Beats of the Bodhrán.

913
00:49:02,306 --> 00:49:05,375
[Corey] Unfamiliar sight,
the ring general in retreat.

914
00:49:08,946 --> 00:49:13,617
[Cole] Sheamus sent over the barricade
into the WWE fans.

915
00:49:14,284 --> 00:49:16,720
And now Sheamus said,
"I'm gonna punish you some more."

916
00:49:16,787 --> 00:49:19,289
-[Saxton] Yeah, why not?
-[crowd counting]

917
00:49:24,194 --> 00:49:27,097
[Cole] And 11, 12, and more!

918
00:49:27,764 --> 00:49:29,166
[Saxton] Who's gonna stop him?

919
00:49:29,232 --> 00:49:31,301
[crowd cheering]

920
00:49:31,368 --> 00:49:34,037
[Cole] Now it's Gunther trying to escape!

921
00:49:35,472 --> 00:49:36,873
[referee] Six!

922
00:49:36,940 --> 00:49:39,843
[Corey] Sheamus forcing the champion
back inside the ring.

923
00:49:42,813 --> 00:49:46,717
Now Sheamus willing himself
to the top rope.

924
00:49:48,285 --> 00:49:50,620
[Cole] Oh, and the knee to Gunther!

925
00:49:50,687 --> 00:49:53,056
-And Sheamus is feeling it!
-[Sheamus yells]

926
00:49:53,123 --> 00:49:56,093
Could be closing in
on the Intercontinental Championship!

927
00:50:00,964 --> 00:50:02,866
[Saxton] Sheamus gotta
be feeling confident

928
00:50:02,933 --> 00:50:07,237
'cause he knows he absorbed
the hardest-hitting shots from Gunther.

929
00:50:09,439 --> 00:50:12,042
And he's still got more gas in the tank

930
00:50:12,109 --> 00:50:15,846
as we take another look
at Sheamus with the knee!

931
00:50:27,190 --> 00:50:29,559
[Cole] And Sheamus now
with Gunther up on his shoulders.

932
00:50:29,626 --> 00:50:33,330
Gunther drops behind
and blasts Sheamus in the kidneys.

933
00:50:34,531 --> 00:50:36,800
[Corey] Sheamus answers
with a right of his own.

934
00:50:36,867 --> 00:50:38,468
[crowd exclaims]

935
00:50:41,538 --> 00:50:43,840
Who can hit who harder?

936
00:50:45,075 --> 00:50:47,077
[crowd chanting indistinctly]

937
00:50:56,386 --> 00:51:00,123
[Cole] Corey, these are the looks
you see on boxers in the 12th round,

938
00:51:00,190 --> 00:51:01,691
trying to dig down deep

939
00:51:01,758 --> 00:51:03,894
and put their opponent away
or somehow survive.

940
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,730
German suplex by Gunther!

941
00:51:07,464 --> 00:51:10,100
[Corey] Sheamus tried
to mitigate the impact.

942
00:51:10,167 --> 00:51:12,235
Maybe managed to do so.

943
00:51:15,172 --> 00:51:17,140
[Cole] Oh, and a big running knee
by Sheamus.

944
00:51:17,207 --> 00:51:20,177
-[Saxton] The champ is down!
-[Cole] Falls into the cover for the win!

945
00:51:20,243 --> 00:51:23,647
Oh, Gunther at two,
a near-fall for the challenger!

946
00:51:25,348 --> 00:51:29,119
[Corey] That is the best opportunity
Sheamus has had in this match

947
00:51:29,186 --> 00:51:31,655
to actually walk away
with the Intercontinental title.

948
00:51:32,522 --> 00:51:36,426
[Cole] Much to the delight
of the over 60,000 here tonight.

949
00:51:36,493 --> 00:51:38,495
[crowd chanting indistinctly]

950
00:51:39,029 --> 00:51:43,033
In Cardiff, Wales,
it has been a hard-hitting affair

951
00:51:43,100 --> 00:51:46,269
as advertised
between Gunther and Sheamus.

952
00:51:47,237 --> 00:51:49,506
[Corey] Brutality at its finest

953
00:51:50,173 --> 00:51:54,377
between two of the hardest hitters
in all of WWE.

954
00:51:54,444 --> 00:51:58,081
These are two of the toughest bastards
in the business, barred none.

955
00:52:01,318 --> 00:52:04,888
[Cole] And they're proving it here
tonight, Corey, beyond a doubt.

956
00:52:05,455 --> 00:52:07,858
It's how much
the Intercontinental Championship means

957
00:52:07,924 --> 00:52:09,392
to Gunther to retain.

958
00:52:09,459 --> 00:52:11,761
-How much it means for Sheamus--
-[Corey] Oh, the sleeper.

959
00:52:11,828 --> 00:52:14,731
[Cole] For the very first time,
sleeper by the champion.

960
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:20,036
Sheamus down to a knee
in the middle of the ring.

961
00:52:20,604 --> 00:52:22,772
[Saxton] Sheamus, still instinctively
trying to swing,

962
00:52:22,839 --> 00:52:25,108
but Sheamus,
Sheamus starting to fade here, guys.

963
00:52:26,143 --> 00:52:29,079
[Corey] Gunther battling
against the perspiration on his own body,

964
00:52:29,145 --> 00:52:31,948
maybe unable to lock in the sleeper
quite as tight as he would like,

965
00:52:32,749 --> 00:52:35,085
allowing a little wiggle room
for the Celtic Warrior.

966
00:52:36,019 --> 00:52:38,588
[Cole] And now trying to lift Sheamus up
for the powerbomb.

967
00:52:38,655 --> 00:52:41,057
Sheamus able to counter, get Gunther up!

968
00:52:41,791 --> 00:52:43,393
Can he deliver?

969
00:52:43,460 --> 00:52:46,029
-White Noise!
-[Saxton] Is that enough?

970
00:52:46,096 --> 00:52:48,698
-[Cole] For the win!
-For the title for the first time!

971
00:52:48,765 --> 00:52:51,334
And a kick-out at two and a half.

972
00:52:54,571 --> 00:52:55,939
The exhaustion…

973
00:52:57,274 --> 00:52:58,275
from Sheamus.

974
00:53:02,412 --> 00:53:05,582
[Corey] We see the challenger
driving the champion down,

975
00:53:05,649 --> 00:53:10,654
White Noise, two and nine-tenth,
but Gunther escapes.

976
00:53:13,990 --> 00:53:15,892
[crowd chanting] This is awesome!

977
00:53:16,626 --> 00:53:18,128
This is awesome!

978
00:53:18,194 --> 00:53:19,863
[Cole] Indeed, it is awesome,

979
00:53:19,930 --> 00:53:23,400
as has been this entire week
here in Cardiff, Wales.

980
00:53:23,466 --> 00:53:28,271
Clash at the Castle,
over 60,000 at Principality Stadium,

981
00:53:28,338 --> 00:53:31,007
looking on as Sheamus and Gunther

982
00:53:31,074 --> 00:53:33,810
are beating the living hell
out of one another

983
00:53:33,877 --> 00:53:36,279
with the Intercontinental title
on the line!

984
00:53:36,346 --> 00:53:38,348
[crowd cheering]

985
00:53:40,216 --> 00:53:45,121
[Saxton] Sheamus feeding off the energy
of all the fans here in Cardiff.

986
00:53:45,889 --> 00:53:48,792
[Cole] And Sheamus
could be setting up Gunther

987
00:53:48,858 --> 00:53:52,329
for a Brogue Kick
to put the champion away.

988
00:53:52,395 --> 00:53:53,997
Gunther back to his feet!

989
00:53:54,064 --> 00:53:55,632
Sidesteps Sheamus.

990
00:53:55,699 --> 00:53:57,834
Sheamus with an elbow catches him.

991
00:53:57,901 --> 00:54:01,171
Oh, and there's the dropkick,
driving Sheamus into the corner.

992
00:54:03,540 --> 00:54:06,576
And now Gunther went for the powerbomb.

993
00:54:06,643 --> 00:54:07,644
Didn't get all of it.

994
00:54:07,711 --> 00:54:09,579
Cover on Sheamus, hook of the leg,

995
00:54:09,646 --> 00:54:10,981
and Sheamus out on a kick-out.

996
00:54:11,047 --> 00:54:12,816
Gunther didn't get all of that powerbomb!

997
00:54:12,882 --> 00:54:15,018
[Corey] Sheamus did his best
to sit upright.

998
00:54:15,085 --> 00:54:18,321
Most of the impact was gonna land
on Sheamus' tailbone.

999
00:54:19,356 --> 00:54:21,625
Definitely agonizing,

1000
00:54:21,691 --> 00:54:24,661
but not enough
to keep The Celtic Warrior down for three.

1001
00:54:24,728 --> 00:54:27,797
[Cole] Saw Sheamus immediately
reach back to his lower back.

1002
00:54:28,598 --> 00:54:31,434
-[Cole] Suffering the consequences--
-[Corey] Yeah, and moments to come.

1003
00:54:32,269 --> 00:54:36,306
Not any type of way
you want to land in any scenario,

1004
00:54:36,373 --> 00:54:40,143
but again, just speaks to the toughness
of both of these competitors.

1005
00:54:41,111 --> 00:54:43,947
[Saxton] We saw even a little shock
a moment ago on the face of Gunther

1006
00:54:44,014 --> 00:54:46,916
that Sheamus was still able to escape.

1007
00:54:49,219 --> 00:54:51,187
Oh, it's smart.

1008
00:54:51,254 --> 00:54:52,756
How smart is the Ring General?

1009
00:54:52,822 --> 00:54:55,992
Now target the tailbone,
the lower back of Sheamus,

1010
00:54:56,059 --> 00:54:58,361
which suffered the brunt
of the powerbomb moments ago.

1011
00:54:58,428 --> 00:54:59,996
[crowd booing]

1012
00:55:00,063 --> 00:55:01,898
[Cole] Not even sure if Sheamus can stand.

1013
00:55:02,565 --> 00:55:04,567
[Corey] This is a frightening sight
right here.

1014
00:55:04,634 --> 00:55:08,104
[Cole] Yeah, that's 6'4" Gunther.

1015
00:55:09,272 --> 00:55:10,974
Sheamus met him there, though.

1016
00:55:11,708 --> 00:55:13,810
[crowd cheering]

1017
00:55:23,053 --> 00:55:24,287
[Corey] Oh, my God.

1018
00:55:24,354 --> 00:55:25,655
[Sheamus groans]

1019
00:55:32,495 --> 00:55:33,730
[Saxton] Strike exchanged.

1020
00:55:33,797 --> 00:55:36,900
Gunther once again all by himself,

1021
00:55:36,966 --> 00:55:39,002
looking to attack from the air.

1022
00:55:39,069 --> 00:55:43,406
[Cole] And again, Sheamus does not
allow Gunther to get to the top rope.

1023
00:55:44,140 --> 00:55:46,576
Sheamus is now the one
who's been a step ahead.

1024
00:55:46,643 --> 00:55:47,977
[crowd cheering]

1025
00:55:48,044 --> 00:55:50,313
And Sheamus setting up Gunther

1026
00:55:50,380 --> 00:55:54,217
for perhaps
the Celtic Cross from way up high.

1027
00:55:55,852 --> 00:55:58,321
-Gunther with nowhere to go, but down!
-[Corey] Oh!

1028
00:55:58,388 --> 00:55:59,923
Sheamus with an opportunity!

1029
00:55:59,989 --> 00:56:02,826
Can he get to the cover?
Can he make the cover?

1030
00:56:02,892 --> 00:56:06,496
Sheamus trying to drag himself
to the champion!

1031
00:56:06,563 --> 00:56:08,365
Hooks the leg. Is this it?

1032
00:56:08,431 --> 00:56:09,999
Sheamus is at the top!

1033
00:56:10,066 --> 00:56:12,535
And a kick-out by Gunther
at two and a half!

1034
00:56:13,303 --> 00:56:14,971
[Saxton] You got to be kidding me.

1035
00:56:15,038 --> 00:56:17,440
[Cole] Look at Sheamus' body.

1036
00:56:17,507 --> 00:56:21,411
Black and blue and red, peeled apart.

1037
00:56:21,478 --> 00:56:24,714
[Corey] Sheamus' eyes
tell the tale of heartbreak

1038
00:56:24,781 --> 00:56:27,684
after the Celtic Cross connects,

1039
00:56:27,751 --> 00:56:31,521
driving the champion
neck and shoulders first.

1040
00:56:31,588 --> 00:56:34,224
Sheamus with a deep hook of the legs,

1041
00:56:34,290 --> 00:56:38,128
but the Ring General
with a little too much left in the tank

1042
00:56:38,194 --> 00:56:39,896
for this one to be over just yet.

1043
00:56:40,697 --> 00:56:43,032
[Saxton] Sheamus' mind
has got to be racing.

1044
00:56:43,099 --> 00:56:44,534
"What more do I have to do?

1045
00:56:44,601 --> 00:56:49,739
"What play do I have to call upon
to finally put Gunther away?"

1046
00:56:51,574 --> 00:56:56,079
[Cole] Sheamus, again,
has the champion in his sights,

1047
00:56:56,146 --> 00:56:58,248
drags himself through his feet.

1048
00:56:58,314 --> 00:57:00,483
Went, went for the Brogue,
but the back gave out.

1049
00:57:00,550 --> 00:57:02,552
The back gave out
as he went for the Brogue.

1050
00:57:02,619 --> 00:57:03,820
Powerbomb!

1051
00:57:03,887 --> 00:57:05,622
[Corey] Even that one was low.

1052
00:57:07,223 --> 00:57:10,894
The majority of the impact
on the low back of the challenger.

1053
00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:12,495
We saw it already play a factor.

1054
00:57:12,562 --> 00:57:14,531
Sheamus unable to deliver a Brogue Kick.

1055
00:57:14,597 --> 00:57:17,233
-[indistinct chatter]
-[crowd cheering]

1056
00:57:23,506 --> 00:57:28,578
[Cole] Gunther with a wicked lariat
and a cover on Sheamus!

1057
00:57:28,645 --> 00:57:31,214
-And it's over! Gunther retains!
-[bell dings]

1058
00:57:33,216 --> 00:57:35,118
[announcer] Here is your winner

1059
00:57:35,185 --> 00:57:40,457
and still the Intercontinental Champion,

1060
00:57:40,523 --> 00:57:42,859
Gunther!

1061
00:57:42,926 --> 00:57:45,595
[Cole] That was a hell of a fight.

1062
00:57:47,230 --> 00:57:50,233
-This--
-[Corey] Delivered as advertised.

1063
00:57:50,867 --> 00:57:52,335
My goodness.

1064
00:57:52,402 --> 00:57:55,071
[Cole] It can't get
much old-school than that.

1065
00:57:55,138 --> 00:57:59,242
Sheamus and Gunther
annihilating each other.

1066
00:58:01,478 --> 00:58:05,014
And then the lariat after two powerbombs

1067
00:58:05,081 --> 00:58:10,687
would finally end Sheamus' dream
on this night in Cardiff, Wales.

1068
00:58:12,455 --> 00:58:18,795
[Saxton] A physically maiming affair
between Gunther and Sheamus.

1069
00:58:19,896 --> 00:58:22,866
But you got to give credit
where credit's due.

1070
00:58:22,932 --> 00:58:26,169
Gunther survived this war here tonight.

1071
00:58:26,236 --> 00:58:29,939
[Corey] We see Giovanni Vinci
reunited with Imperium.

1072
00:58:30,773 --> 00:58:36,212
Ludwig Kaiser
to celebrate the Ring General,

1073
00:58:36,279 --> 00:58:38,882
the Intercontinental Champion.

1074
00:58:41,618 --> 00:58:43,019
[Corey] Sheamus is hurting.

1075
00:58:43,086 --> 00:58:46,890
[Cole] Sheamus is hurting,
he's disappointed, he's upset.

1076
00:58:46,956 --> 00:58:51,194
He gave everything he had in this match
tonight, but it was this impact!

1077
00:58:52,962 --> 00:58:56,199
One of the most hellacious lariats
you'll ever see.

1078
00:58:56,266 --> 00:58:57,433
[bell dings]

1079
00:58:58,368 --> 00:59:02,205
The Ring General flanked by Imperium

1080
00:59:03,172 --> 00:59:07,477
still reigns
as your Intercontinental Champion.

1081
00:59:07,544 --> 00:59:09,546
[song continues]

1082
00:59:15,785 --> 00:59:17,153
Yeah!

1083
00:59:17,220 --> 00:59:18,221
Yeah!

1084
00:59:25,228 --> 00:59:27,330
[crowd cheering]

1085
01:00:07,604 --> 01:00:09,606
[cheering continues]

1086
01:00:16,546 --> 01:00:19,616
[Cole] A tremendous show of respect…

1087
01:00:20,883 --> 01:00:23,052
for one of the hardest hitters,

1088
01:00:23,119 --> 01:00:26,556
one of the most physical men
that you'll ever meet.

1089
01:00:27,523 --> 01:00:30,927
Sheamus left everything
on the line here tonight.

1090
01:00:30,994 --> 01:00:33,496
He came up just short in his quest

1091
01:00:33,563 --> 01:00:38,001
for his first-ever
Intercontinental Championship.

1092
01:00:38,968 --> 01:00:41,237
[man] The champion!

1093
01:00:48,811 --> 01:00:50,913
[upbeat music playing]

1094
01:01:07,030 --> 01:01:10,366
[narrator] WWE Shop,
now A Fanatics experience.

1095
01:01:12,502 --> 01:01:14,103
[Cole] At Clash at the Castle tonight,

1096
01:01:14,170 --> 01:01:17,974
hosted by the wonderful city of Cardiff
in the glorious country of Wales.

1097
01:01:18,041 --> 01:01:20,576
Lush greenery everywhere
on the Cardiff Bay.

1098
01:01:20,643 --> 01:01:24,080
And in the town center,
the famous Cardiff Castle,

1099
01:01:24,147 --> 01:01:26,549
a former Roman fort
where, during World War II,

1100
01:01:26,616 --> 01:01:29,986
its tunnels were used
as air-raid shelters, but now, today,

1101
01:01:30,053 --> 01:01:34,323
a majestic centerpiece
for this vibrant capital of Wales.

1102
01:01:34,390 --> 01:01:37,727
Well, coming up next, the top prize
on Friday Night SmackDown,

1103
01:01:37,794 --> 01:01:41,130
the Women's Championship,
The Submission Magician,

1104
01:01:41,197 --> 01:01:44,400
The Queen of Spades,
dangerous Shayna Baszler,

1105
01:01:44,467 --> 01:01:49,405
versus the longtime scrappy underdog,
but now the champion,

1106
01:01:49,472 --> 01:01:50,807
Liv Morgan.

1107
01:01:53,042 --> 01:01:55,044
[upbeat music playing]

1108
01:01:56,012 --> 01:02:02,985
[Liv] This is a culmination of a lifetime
of hard work, sweat and tears.

1109
01:02:03,052 --> 01:02:06,622
[man 1] The underdog, the miracle kid,
Liv Morgan!

1110
01:02:07,323 --> 01:02:09,826
[man 2] Miss Money in the Bank!

1111
01:02:09,892 --> 01:02:11,928
[crowd cheering]

1112
01:02:17,433 --> 01:02:20,603
Liv did it! Liv's a champion!
Liv's a champion!

1113
01:02:30,313 --> 01:02:33,583
[man 1] Shayna Baszler,
the number-one contender for the title!

1114
01:02:34,484 --> 01:02:36,052
[Shayna] I'm here to show everyone…

1115
01:02:37,954 --> 01:02:40,123
what a real fight is.

1116
01:02:40,189 --> 01:02:43,326
[man 1] One of the most brutal competitors
in WWE.

1117
01:02:44,961 --> 01:02:46,863
[screaming]

1118
01:02:51,134 --> 01:02:53,469
[man 2] Shayna Baszler continues
to strike fear

1119
01:02:53,536 --> 01:02:56,739
into the hearts of every woman
with very good reason.

1120
01:02:59,642 --> 01:03:01,911
[man 1] Baszler is here tonight
to sign the contract

1121
01:03:01,978 --> 01:03:04,280
for a golden opportunity
at Clash of the Castle.

1122
01:03:05,014 --> 01:03:08,518
Why don't you prance your way out here
and let's make this official?

1123
01:03:08,584 --> 01:03:09,952
[Liv Morgan's theme song plays]

1124
01:03:10,019 --> 01:03:13,322
[man 1] The SmackDown Women's Champion
with a big brace on her left arm.

1125
01:03:13,389 --> 01:03:15,491
It does not bode well for the champion.

1126
01:03:15,558 --> 01:03:18,694
[Liv] Shayna, you won't beat me.

1127
01:03:18,761 --> 01:03:23,065
You're actually kind of like
a bootleg Ronda Rousey.

1128
01:03:23,132 --> 01:03:25,134
[cheering]

1129
01:03:25,668 --> 01:03:29,272
And at Cardiff,
I'm gonna rip your arm off.

1130
01:03:29,338 --> 01:03:32,308
[man 1] Baszler no going after
the injured arm of Morgan!

1131
01:03:32,375 --> 01:03:33,743
[man 2] Oh, my gosh!

1132
01:03:33,810 --> 01:03:35,044
[screams]

1133
01:03:35,111 --> 01:03:36,479
[Shayna] I'd like to see you try.

1134
01:03:37,814 --> 01:03:39,015
[screams]

1135
01:03:42,985 --> 01:03:44,153
[Liv] Watch me.

1136
01:03:46,422 --> 01:03:48,958
[man 1] Morgan surviving tonight!

1137
01:03:55,598 --> 01:03:59,001
[Liv] I've dreamed about this
my entire life,

1138
01:03:59,068 --> 01:04:02,738
and I'm willing to work
ten times as hard to stay here.

1139
01:04:05,474 --> 01:04:07,577
[groaning]

1140
01:04:08,244 --> 01:04:10,680
I'm gonna break your arm so bad right now.

1141
01:04:10,746 --> 01:04:12,848
-Aah!
-You will not make it to Cardiff.

1142
01:04:15,051 --> 01:04:18,020
[Shayna] I'm going to tear her apart,
limb by limb.

1143
01:04:26,562 --> 01:04:28,564
[Shayna Baszler's theme music playing]

1144
01:04:29,198 --> 01:04:32,768
[Cole] Oh, for the first time
in almost 900 days,

1145
01:04:33,469 --> 01:04:38,107
Shayna Baszler has a match
for a Women's Championship.

1146
01:04:38,808 --> 01:04:41,444
She won a gauntlet match
on SmackDown to get here

1147
01:04:41,510 --> 01:04:45,081
and earn this opportunity,
The Queen of Spades.

1148
01:04:47,783 --> 01:04:51,454
[Saxton] Baszler has made
her intentions crystal clear.

1149
01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:55,391
Shayna Baszler wants
to make Liv Morgan suffer

1150
01:04:55,458 --> 01:04:57,660
and then win the SmackDown
Women's Championship.

1151
01:04:57,727 --> 01:05:01,030
[Corey] I'm curious to see
which Shayna Baszler we're gonna get here

1152
01:05:01,097 --> 01:05:02,798
tonight in Cardiff.

1153
01:05:02,865 --> 01:05:05,768
The dominant NXT
Women's Champion, Shayna Baszler?

1154
01:05:05,835 --> 01:05:08,671
[Cole] The one that Ronda Rousey
once said used to be a killer?

1155
01:05:08,738 --> 01:05:09,739
[Corey] That one.

1156
01:05:09,805 --> 01:05:11,774
One of the most sanguinest superstars

1157
01:05:11,841 --> 01:05:14,410
we've ever known,
quite literally at times.

1158
01:05:14,477 --> 01:05:17,747
Shayna Baszler
is capable of hurting anyone

1159
01:05:17,813 --> 01:05:20,616
who steps in her way,
including Liv Morgan.

1160
01:05:20,683 --> 01:05:22,418
But where is Shayna mentally?

1161
01:05:22,485 --> 01:05:23,786
That's what I want to find out.

1162
01:05:55,751 --> 01:05:59,055
[Cole] And many stars here tonight
in Cardiff for Clash at the Castle,

1163
01:05:59,121 --> 01:06:03,059
including the UFC
welterweight champion,

1164
01:06:03,125 --> 01:06:05,695
Leon Edwards, is here tonight.

1165
01:06:05,761 --> 01:06:07,430
[cheering]

1166
01:06:07,496 --> 01:06:12,034
[Corey] Edwards, of course, will enjoy
Shayna Baszler's MMA style.

1167
01:06:16,038 --> 01:06:21,277
Baszler, a product of British
Catch Wrestling pioneer Billy Robinson.

1168
01:06:22,178 --> 01:06:24,480
Curious to see how
she puts that to use tonight.

1169
01:06:24,547 --> 01:06:26,549
[Liv Morgan's theme song playing]

1170
01:06:34,623 --> 01:06:38,194
[Cole] Liv Morgan is the only superstar
in WWE history

1171
01:06:38,260 --> 01:06:42,365
to have pinned Ronda Rousey
on two different occasions.

1172
01:06:42,431 --> 01:06:46,202
Speaking about Rousey, last night she had
her suspension lifted on SmackDown,

1173
01:06:46,268 --> 01:06:50,339
then she went on to attack
WWE official Adam Pearce.

1174
01:06:50,406 --> 01:06:52,174
So who knows what's gonna happen to Ronda.

1175
01:06:52,241 --> 01:06:54,176
It's up to a much higher level
than Mr. Pearce.

1176
01:06:54,243 --> 01:06:56,345
[Corey] No punishment's
been handed out just yet,

1177
01:06:56,412 --> 01:06:58,614
but I would not want
to be Ronda Rousey's accountant.

1178
01:06:58,681 --> 01:07:02,251
[Cole] So, gentlemen, do you realize
that Wales was the only country

1179
01:07:02,318 --> 01:07:05,121
in all of Britain
that was allowed to showcase

1180
01:07:05,187 --> 01:07:08,691
women's wrestling through the 1980s?

1181
01:07:08,758 --> 01:07:12,228
So they've been getting
a great couple of matches so far

1182
01:07:12,294 --> 01:07:13,796
here tonight at Clash of the Castle.

1183
01:07:13,863 --> 01:07:16,665
[Saxton] Well, a continuation
to that lineage of history

1184
01:07:16,732 --> 01:07:21,303
here tonight with the SmackDown
Women's title on the line.

1185
01:07:25,374 --> 01:07:26,976
[Saxton] My question is, Cole…

1186
01:07:27,042 --> 01:07:29,311
what version of Shayna Baszler
are we gonna see?

1187
01:07:29,378 --> 01:07:31,514
What kind of version
of Liv Morgan are we gonna see?

1188
01:07:31,580 --> 01:07:33,849
Are we gonna see
an ultra-aggressive Liv Morgan?

1189
01:07:33,916 --> 01:07:36,952
'Cause that's what it's gonna take
if she wants to walk away still champ.

1190
01:07:37,019 --> 01:07:38,454
[Corey] I agree with you, Saxton,

1191
01:07:38,521 --> 01:07:41,490
and I think Liv Morgan
still has a lot of proving to do

1192
01:07:41,557 --> 01:07:44,293
about herself
as SmackDown Women's Champion.

1193
01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:45,828
[bell dings]

1194
01:07:45,895 --> 01:07:49,198
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall,

1195
01:07:49,265 --> 01:07:55,471
and it is for the SmackDown
Women's Championship!

1196
01:07:55,538 --> 01:07:57,540
[crowd cheering]

1197
01:07:58,040 --> 01:08:00,109
Introducing the challenger

1198
01:08:00,176 --> 01:08:02,545
from Sioux Falls, South Dakota,

1199
01:08:02,611 --> 01:08:06,482
Shayna Baszler!

1200
01:08:06,549 --> 01:08:08,551
[crowd booing]

1201
01:08:11,854 --> 01:08:15,157
And her opponent
from Elmwood Park, New Jersey,

1202
01:08:15,224 --> 01:08:20,062
she is the SmackDown Women's Champion,

1203
01:08:20,129 --> 01:08:24,600
Liv Morgan!

1204
01:08:24,667 --> 01:08:26,669
[cheering]

1205
01:08:28,003 --> 01:08:30,639
[Cole] So, in order to prepare
for this match tonight

1206
01:08:30,706 --> 01:08:32,208
against Shayna Baszler,

1207
01:08:32,274 --> 01:08:33,976
Liv Morgan spent time, guys,

1208
01:08:34,043 --> 01:08:37,179
sparring with Riddle,
who also has an MMA background,

1209
01:08:37,246 --> 01:08:38,447
much like Shayna does,

1210
01:08:38,514 --> 01:08:41,817
to prepare for what Shayna's going
to throw at Liv here tonight.

1211
01:08:41,884 --> 01:08:44,386
[Corey] Very, very smart decision
by Liv to spend her time

1212
01:08:44,453 --> 01:08:47,256
trying to prepare
for the submission expertise

1213
01:08:47,323 --> 01:08:48,924
of the challenger, Shayna Baszler.

1214
01:08:48,991 --> 01:08:51,393
Will it be enough?
We are about to find out.

1215
01:08:51,460 --> 01:08:53,796
[Cole] It is the first
one-on-one match ever

1216
01:08:53,863 --> 01:08:55,865
between Liv Morgan and Shayna Baszler,

1217
01:08:55,931 --> 01:08:58,000
and it's for the SmackDown
Women's Championship

1218
01:08:58,067 --> 01:08:59,869
here tonight at Clash at the Castle.

1219
01:08:59,935 --> 01:09:01,370
A very confident Baszler,

1220
01:09:01,437 --> 01:09:03,939
who once held the NXT Women's Championship

1221
01:09:04,006 --> 01:09:07,076
for over 540 days
over two different reigns.

1222
01:09:07,143 --> 01:09:09,478
Liv Morgan, roll up now on Baszler,

1223
01:09:09,545 --> 01:09:14,316
and a kick-out in her first defense
of any championship here at WWE.

1224
01:09:14,383 --> 01:09:16,352
[Corey] Oh, Kirifuda Clutch
right out of the gate.

1225
01:09:16,418 --> 01:09:17,853
[Saxton] Good escape by Morgan.

1226
01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:20,222
-[Cole] Roll through now.
-Shoulders down, and a kick-out.

1227
01:09:20,289 --> 01:09:21,991
And again,
looking for the Kirifuda Clutch,

1228
01:09:22,057 --> 01:09:23,859
which is Shayna Baszler's hold.

1229
01:09:23,926 --> 01:09:25,794
[Corey] And Baszler not even sweating.

1230
01:09:26,829 --> 01:09:29,498
Shayna's such a pro,
so comfortable on the ground, on the mat.

1231
01:09:29,565 --> 01:09:31,600
[Cole] And now,
looking for the arm bar on Morgan,

1232
01:09:31,667 --> 01:09:33,536
and Liv Morgan looking to roll through

1233
01:09:33,602 --> 01:09:36,205
and put Shayna away early,
shoulder down, and a kick-out.

1234
01:09:36,272 --> 01:09:38,507
Remember,
Liv Morgan has the bad arm,

1235
01:09:38,574 --> 01:09:40,009
and I misspoke a moment ago.

1236
01:09:40,075 --> 01:09:42,678
This is her second title defense,
because back at SummerSlam,

1237
01:09:42,745 --> 01:09:44,346
Liv defended against Ronda Rousey.

1238
01:09:44,413 --> 01:09:47,216
Ronda severely injured the arm
of Liv Morgan

1239
01:09:47,283 --> 01:09:50,553
in that controversial win
for Morgan at SummerSlam.

1240
01:09:50,619 --> 01:09:52,521
[Saxton] I love,
even in the early going here,

1241
01:09:52,588 --> 01:09:54,690
Liv Morgan
talking a little trash of her own,

1242
01:09:54,757 --> 01:09:57,560
letting Shayna know,
"I nearly had you beat."

1243
01:09:57,626 --> 01:10:00,129
[Cole] And Liv Morgan now,
and if she can do stuff like that

1244
01:10:00,196 --> 01:10:04,833
and keep Baszler off her feet,
it'll bode well for the champion tonight.

1245
01:10:04,900 --> 01:10:06,902
[crowd cheering]

1246
01:10:08,003 --> 01:10:10,973
And Morgan,
dropkick to the back of Baszler.

1247
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:12,808
Shayna's gotta slow this match down.

1248
01:10:12,875 --> 01:10:16,212
She's gotta be able to tear apart Liv,

1249
01:10:16,278 --> 01:10:20,015
punish her, put her
in those excruciating holds.

1250
01:10:20,683 --> 01:10:23,886
[Corey] Liv needs to be careful not
to burn herself out in the early moments,

1251
01:10:23,953 --> 01:10:26,121
trying to throw everything
she has at Baszler.

1252
01:10:26,188 --> 01:10:28,290
It's a smart strategy,
but it can backfire.

1253
01:10:29,792 --> 01:10:31,827
-Morgan looking for--
-[Cole] Oh, and Baszler!

1254
01:10:32,494 --> 01:10:34,330
And again, the bad arm of Liv Morgan.

1255
01:10:34,396 --> 01:10:36,365
[Corey] And that was not the time
to get fancy.

1256
01:10:36,432 --> 01:10:38,334
That was not the time to be cute.

1257
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:41,904
Shayna Baszler is still as close
to 100% as she's gonna get.

1258
01:10:41,971 --> 01:10:43,839
Morgan took a high risk,
and it's backfired.

1259
01:10:43,906 --> 01:10:47,309
[Cole] And the longer this match goes,
the better off it is for Baszler.

1260
01:10:47,376 --> 01:10:49,678
She has to pin
or submit the champion for the title.

1261
01:10:49,745 --> 01:10:51,814
I would be remiss if I didn't mention

1262
01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:57,419
the major women's championship match
tomorrow, 4:00 p.m. Eastern,

1263
01:10:57,486 --> 01:10:59,221
NXT Worlds Collide,

1264
01:10:59,922 --> 01:11:01,624
where you have Blair Davenport,

1265
01:11:02,925 --> 01:11:04,360
Meiko Satomura,

1266
01:11:04,426 --> 01:11:05,694
and Mandy Rose

1267
01:11:05,761 --> 01:11:08,797
trying to unify the NXT
and the NXT UK Women's Championship!

1268
01:11:08,864 --> 01:11:11,166
And a kick-out at two by Morgan.

1269
01:11:11,233 --> 01:11:13,202
[Corey] We said from the outset

1270
01:11:13,269 --> 01:11:15,738
that Shayna Baszler was gonna
have to be ruthless tonight,

1271
01:11:15,804 --> 01:11:19,575
and here is our first shining example.

1272
01:11:19,642 --> 01:11:22,011
That sort of impact
can separate your shoulder.

1273
01:11:23,545 --> 01:11:25,547
[Saxton] And you saw the style
from Morgan earlier,

1274
01:11:25,614 --> 01:11:28,017
trying to have an up-tempo pace
to avoid situations like this

1275
01:11:28,083 --> 01:11:30,853
where Shayna can settle down
and focus on the left arm.

1276
01:11:30,919 --> 01:11:32,955
[Cole] And this is what
Shayna enjoys doing.

1277
01:11:33,022 --> 01:11:34,456
-[screams]
-She enjoys this.

1278
01:11:34,523 --> 01:11:37,526
She said that she wants to rip
the limbs off Liv Morgan's body

1279
01:11:37,593 --> 01:11:41,764
like you would rip the bones
off a turkey leg on Thanksgiving dinner.

1280
01:11:41,830 --> 01:11:43,198
Those were Shayna's words.

1281
01:11:43,265 --> 01:11:44,967
[Saxton] A-and remember
a couple weeks ago,

1282
01:11:45,034 --> 01:11:47,002
Shayna had the opportunity
to break Liv's arm.

1283
01:11:47,069 --> 01:11:51,073
She purposely said, "I'm holding off
until Clash at the Castle."

1284
01:11:52,274 --> 01:11:54,677
[Corey] Let's be honest,
Shayna Baszler thrives

1285
01:11:54,743 --> 01:11:56,545
when she's torturing her opponent.

1286
01:11:57,880 --> 01:11:59,448
-[Cole] And Liv.
-[Corey] Oh!

1287
01:11:59,515 --> 01:12:01,483
[Cole] Runs into a clothesline by Baszler.

1288
01:12:01,550 --> 01:12:03,485
Shayna into the cover again
for the championship.

1289
01:12:03,552 --> 01:12:05,054
And Liv kicks out at two.

1290
01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:07,890
Shayna with a smile on her face,
knew she didn't have Liv there.

1291
01:12:07,956 --> 01:12:09,958
She just wanted her to rub some salt
in the wounds

1292
01:12:10,025 --> 01:12:11,760
and say, "Hey, it was that close."

1293
01:12:11,827 --> 01:12:14,029
It's actually a veteran maneuver
by Shayna Baszler.

1294
01:12:14,096 --> 01:12:17,099
Every time you cover your opponent
and force them to kick-out,

1295
01:12:17,166 --> 01:12:19,802
you're forcing them
to exert a little bit more energy.

1296
01:12:19,868 --> 01:12:21,804
That adds up
throughout the course of a matchup.

1297
01:12:21,870 --> 01:12:24,073
[Cole] There's a great interview
that Shayna Baszler did

1298
01:12:24,139 --> 01:12:25,507
with the New York Post this week,

1299
01:12:25,574 --> 01:12:28,410
where she talked about
being more comfortable in her skin,

1300
01:12:28,477 --> 01:12:31,246
more comfortable performing in front of
crowds this size.

1301
01:12:31,313 --> 01:12:33,115
And she said, "Tonight,
we're going to learn

1302
01:12:33,182 --> 01:12:35,551
"if Liv Morgan has what it takes to hang."

1303
01:12:35,617 --> 01:12:37,886
-[Corey] Oh!
-[Cole] What a suplex by Baszler.

1304
01:12:37,953 --> 01:12:40,723
[Saxton] Morgan said all the right things
coming into this match.

1305
01:12:40,789 --> 01:12:43,492
She told Shayna, "You're gonna
have to kill me to win this title."

1306
01:12:43,559 --> 01:12:46,261
-But this is where Morgan gets--
-[Cole] Cover again by Baszler.

1307
01:12:46,328 --> 01:12:48,530
Hook to the leg,
and Morgan's got to power it, too.

1308
01:12:48,597 --> 01:12:54,169
And every one of these covers
forces Morgan to kick-out with a bad arm.

1309
01:12:54,236 --> 01:12:57,706
[Corey] And continue to exacerbate
any pain she's currently feeling

1310
01:12:57,773 --> 01:13:00,776
as we look once again
at the German suplex from the challenger.

1311
01:13:00,843 --> 01:13:03,278
Baszler now stalking
a downed champion.

1312
01:13:04,313 --> 01:13:06,382
-Liv needs to do her best to protect--
-[Cole] Oh!

1313
01:13:06,448 --> 01:13:09,218
[Corey] Protect her left arm.
She hasn't been able to do that.

1314
01:13:09,284 --> 01:13:12,554
Baszler, a former
two-time tag team champion,

1315
01:13:12,621 --> 01:13:15,958
who says,
"I'm better as a singles competitor."

1316
01:13:16,024 --> 01:13:20,028
But that all plays right into the hand
of someone as dangerous as Baszler.

1317
01:13:20,095 --> 01:13:21,730
If you start protecting your left arm,

1318
01:13:21,797 --> 01:13:23,432
you're likely to expose your right,

1319
01:13:23,499 --> 01:13:24,800
and Baszler is okay with that.

1320
01:13:24,867 --> 01:13:28,070
[Cole] Everyone around the world
is talking about Clash at the Castle,

1321
01:13:28,137 --> 01:13:32,374
number one not only in the United States,
but also in the United Kingdom.

1322
01:13:34,743 --> 01:13:39,848
Baszler continues
to manipulate… Morgan's joints

1323
01:13:39,915 --> 01:13:44,153
and kind of wear Liv Morgan down,
the bad arm.

1324
01:13:44,219 --> 01:13:46,755
Ronda Rousey punished at SummerSlam.

1325
01:13:46,822 --> 01:13:48,657
-[referee] Liv, you do give up?
-No!

1326
01:13:48,724 --> 01:13:51,894
[Saxton] The screams of Liv Morgan,
in absolute agony.

1327
01:13:53,695 --> 01:13:56,765
The screams of Liv Morgan
are feeding the ego of the challenger.

1328
01:13:56,832 --> 01:13:59,868
[Cole] Trying to fight back
with some knees to the back of the head

1329
01:13:59,935 --> 01:14:01,904
and trying to create some space.

1330
01:14:01,970 --> 01:14:04,840
Able to do that momentarily.
Baszler went for the kick to the bad arm.

1331
01:14:04,907 --> 01:14:07,609
Liv momentarily rolled out of harm's way.

1332
01:14:07,676 --> 01:14:09,278
[Saxton] Jawbreaker.

1333
01:14:09,344 --> 01:14:12,881
Just enough to create separation
between herself and Shayna Baszler.

1334
01:14:13,515 --> 01:14:16,118
[Cole] Liv loves being champion so much,

1335
01:14:16,185 --> 01:14:18,987
but will that be enough
to will her through this match?

1336
01:14:19,054 --> 01:14:21,056
Both women down, center of the ring

1337
01:14:21,123 --> 01:14:25,194
with a SmackDown
Women's Championship up for grabs.

1338
01:14:25,260 --> 01:14:26,428
[Corey] Take a look at this.

1339
01:14:26,495 --> 01:14:31,066
Morgan able to perch on the second rope,
nail a dropkick on Shayna Baszler.

1340
01:14:31,767 --> 01:14:33,802
Baszler came down rough
on the back of her neck.

1341
01:14:33,869 --> 01:14:36,772
[Cole] Over 60,000
here tonight in Cardiff, Wales.

1342
01:14:36,839 --> 01:14:39,842
The hottest ticket
in all the United Kingdom.

1343
01:14:40,442 --> 01:14:43,579
Opportunity to be here tonight
at the Clash at the Castle.

1344
01:14:46,882 --> 01:14:50,419
Count of eight now, and Baszler
and a kick-up by Morgan

1345
01:14:50,486 --> 01:14:53,188
showing Baszler, "I'm not done yet!
I got some fire left!"

1346
01:14:53,255 --> 01:14:56,692
[Saxton] A champ displaying new life,
despite the bad arm.

1347
01:14:56,758 --> 01:14:59,328
[Cole] Oh!
And that step-up enzuigiri drops Baszler.

1348
01:14:59,394 --> 01:15:01,930
Now Baszler's in trouble
for the first time in the match.

1349
01:15:02,831 --> 01:15:04,933
Liv Morgan sent across the ring.

1350
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:06,768
Baszler misses wildly.

1351
01:15:07,870 --> 01:15:09,338
-And Liv--
-[man] Oh!

1352
01:15:09,404 --> 01:15:11,006
[Cole] Face-first goes Baszler.

1353
01:15:11,073 --> 01:15:15,043
Morgan trying to retain the cover
on Shayna at two and a half.

1354
01:15:18,547 --> 01:15:22,417
[Saxton] Every offensive maneuver
that Morgan has in her playbook,

1355
01:15:22,484 --> 01:15:26,622
she's gotta reconsider potentially
because of the damage to her left arm.

1356
01:15:27,256 --> 01:15:30,025
[Cole] Liv needs to figure out a way
to keep applying the pressure.

1357
01:15:30,092 --> 01:15:32,861
We see the double knees
to the face take down Baszler,

1358
01:15:32,928 --> 01:15:37,466
but Liv hasn't had enough in her gas tank
to sustain an offensive attack.

1359
01:15:37,532 --> 01:15:38,901
[crowd applauding]

1360
01:15:39,801 --> 01:15:42,504
[Saxton] When you're dealing
with somebody as lethal as Baszler is,

1361
01:15:42,571 --> 01:15:45,307
you need every weapon
in your arsenal firing at 100%.

1362
01:15:45,374 --> 01:15:48,410
[Cole] Liv Morgan learning quickly what
Shayna Baszler learned as a champion.

1363
01:15:48,477 --> 01:15:50,946
It is hard to be on top.

1364
01:15:51,013 --> 01:15:53,615
When you're the hunted,
everyone wants a piece of you.

1365
01:15:53,682 --> 01:15:55,117
-Baszler!
-[Corey] Oh!

1366
01:15:55,183 --> 01:15:57,452
[Cole] Baszler made Morgan pay
for the title!

1367
01:15:57,519 --> 01:16:01,523
Stacks up Morgan, hooks the leg,
and Liv kicks at two again!

1368
01:16:02,758 --> 01:16:06,194
[Saxton] I think the first few rows might
have got a piece of Liv Morgan's teeth.

1369
01:16:06,261 --> 01:16:07,863
Quit!

1370
01:16:07,930 --> 01:16:09,498
[Cole] Baszler screaming at Morgan.

1371
01:16:09,565 --> 01:16:11,466
Quit like you always do!

1372
01:16:11,533 --> 01:16:12,834
Liv, do you want to give up?

1373
01:16:15,203 --> 01:16:16,939
Liv, do you want to give up?

1374
01:16:17,005 --> 01:16:19,808
[Corey] It almost seems as though
Morgan's frustrating the challenger

1375
01:16:19,875 --> 01:16:21,310
just by staying in this fight.

1376
01:16:21,376 --> 01:16:23,979
[Cole] Well, that's what Liv has done
her whole career, right?

1377
01:16:25,714 --> 01:16:30,252
But again, the exposed bad arm
of Liv Morgan, and Baszler…

1378
01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:33,989
[Corey] This is where it all ends
for Liv Morgan.

1379
01:16:35,590 --> 01:16:37,025
Baszler showing her…

1380
01:16:37,092 --> 01:16:38,827
[indistinct conversation]

1381
01:16:40,495 --> 01:16:41,863
[Cole] Liv trying to fight back.

1382
01:16:41,930 --> 01:16:44,299
And now, looking for a triangle!

1383
01:16:44,366 --> 01:16:46,301
Looking for a triangle on Baszler here!

1384
01:16:46,368 --> 01:16:49,738
Baszler trying to lift her up,
and Morgan fighting her back to the mat!

1385
01:16:49,805 --> 01:16:53,442
A triangle locked in,
submission hold on Baszler!

1386
01:16:53,508 --> 01:16:55,143
[Corey] Now, we've got an armbar.

1387
01:16:55,210 --> 01:16:57,779
[Cole] And remember, Morgan last night
promised to break the arm,

1388
01:16:57,846 --> 01:16:59,781
to break the arm of Shayna Baszler!

1389
01:16:59,848 --> 01:17:02,551
And Morgan's gonna try to do
just that with the armbar!

1390
01:17:03,852 --> 01:17:06,855
And now the shoulder's down,
and Liv's still got it locked in!

1391
01:17:06,922 --> 01:17:08,991
[Saxton] Morgan holding on
for dear life!

1392
01:17:09,057 --> 01:17:14,463
[Corey] But notice how calm Baszler is
in this extremely painful situation.

1393
01:17:14,529 --> 01:17:16,131
Shayna's locked her hands once again.

1394
01:17:16,198 --> 01:17:18,800
That's gonna minimize any pressure
on the elbow joint

1395
01:17:18,867 --> 01:17:20,335
that Liv Morgan's trying to apply.

1396
01:17:20,402 --> 01:17:22,771
[Cole] And there's a reason
the Submission Magician,

1397
01:17:22,838 --> 01:17:24,673
she knows her way out of every submission,

1398
01:17:24,740 --> 01:17:27,242
and now right back
to work on the injured arm of Morgan.

1399
01:17:27,309 --> 01:17:30,379
Liv Morgan had a chance,
but it may be over.

1400
01:17:30,445 --> 01:17:32,948
Cinderella may strike midnight!

1401
01:17:33,015 --> 01:17:35,917
A knee to the jaw of Liv Morgan!

1402
01:17:35,984 --> 01:17:39,121
Liv kicks out, but I don't think
Liv has any clue where she is!

1403
01:17:39,187 --> 01:17:40,956
[Corey] I think in this particular moment,

1404
01:17:41,023 --> 01:17:44,026
Cinderella would rather be back
at the castle scrubbing floors.

1405
01:17:44,092 --> 01:17:46,028
[Cole] Thunderous knee!

1406
01:17:46,094 --> 01:17:50,265
[Corey] A knee right to the jaw
of the champion, and somehow,

1407
01:17:50,332 --> 01:17:53,769
basically on instinct alone,
Liv Morgan kicks out.

1408
01:17:53,835 --> 01:17:55,337
[Cole] And Shayna can't believe it.

1409
01:17:55,404 --> 01:17:58,473
Now the smile from earlier in the match
has turned to disappointment.

1410
01:17:58,540 --> 01:17:59,975
It's turned to frustration.

1411
01:18:00,042 --> 01:18:03,111
Shayna trying to figure out
what she needs to do to knock Liv off.

1412
01:18:03,178 --> 01:18:04,446
[Corey] And that's a big key.

1413
01:18:04,513 --> 01:18:07,082
If Shayna Baszler's frustration
takes hold,

1414
01:18:07,149 --> 01:18:10,318
that could create a critical opening
for Liv Morgan.

1415
01:18:13,021 --> 01:18:17,626
[Cole] For Baszler, Corey, this match has
gone as well as she could have designed.

1416
01:18:17,693 --> 01:18:19,161
[Corey] You're absolutely right.

1417
01:18:19,227 --> 01:18:22,531
The only thing stopping Shayna Baszler
from becoming Women's Champion

1418
01:18:22,597 --> 01:18:24,900
is the sheer will of Liv Morgan.

1419
01:18:24,966 --> 01:18:28,170
The fact that Liv is living her dream
every single day

1420
01:18:28,236 --> 01:18:31,506
and refusing to relinquish it
even while perched on the top rope.

1421
01:18:32,174 --> 01:18:35,610
[Cole] She sends out a tweet
every day that says, "I love this!"

1422
01:18:35,677 --> 01:18:36,945
And Liv does love it!

1423
01:18:37,012 --> 01:18:38,714
And she's trying to punish Baszler now,

1424
01:18:38,780 --> 01:18:42,150
and trying to retain a championship
with one arm!

1425
01:18:45,153 --> 01:18:47,589
[Corey] Baszler in a precarious position
on the top.

1426
01:18:48,623 --> 01:18:50,592
-[Saxton] Whoa, whoa, whoa!
-[Cole] Liv!

1427
01:18:51,727 --> 01:18:53,929
Oh, powerbomb for the win

1428
01:18:53,995 --> 01:18:55,430
for Baszler to retain!

1429
01:18:55,497 --> 01:18:57,566
-And Shayna kept--
-[Corey] Kirifuda Clutch!

1430
01:18:57,632 --> 01:18:59,267
-[Cole] The Kirifuda!
-[Corey] That is it!

1431
01:18:59,334 --> 01:19:00,602
[Cole] The Kirifuda's in!

1432
01:19:00,669 --> 01:19:02,070
The clutch is in!

1433
01:19:02,737 --> 01:19:03,805
And Liv somehow countered.

1434
01:19:03,872 --> 01:19:06,007
[Corey] But Baszler looking like
she's having trouble

1435
01:19:06,074 --> 01:19:07,709
applying it completely with her left arm.

1436
01:19:08,543 --> 01:19:10,746
Now with a single-arm armbar applied.

1437
01:19:10,812 --> 01:19:12,948
[Cole] Yeah, because remember
the damage that was done

1438
01:19:13,014 --> 01:19:14,616
by the armbar by Morgan earlier on?

1439
01:19:14,683 --> 01:19:16,918
Shayna couldn't keep
the Kirifuda Clutch in!

1440
01:19:16,985 --> 01:19:19,421
Morgan makes it
to the rope and survives!

1441
01:19:19,488 --> 01:19:21,990
[Saxton] Extremely close call
for Liv Morgan there,

1442
01:19:22,057 --> 01:19:24,893
who was panic-understanding,
"I gotta do something quick."

1443
01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:27,863
[Corey] Is this an opportunity
for the SmackDown Women's Champion

1444
01:19:27,929 --> 01:19:31,466
to turn the tides, or is Liv
simply prolonging the inevitable?

1445
01:19:33,535 --> 01:19:35,837
[Cole] Shayna with a killer instinct.

1446
01:19:35,904 --> 01:19:37,239
The look in her eyes.

1447
01:19:37,305 --> 01:19:39,508
And out she goes
to the Kirifuda with a good arm!

1448
01:19:39,574 --> 01:19:40,809
[Corey] Rolls through!

1449
01:19:40,876 --> 01:19:43,745
[Cole] Liv now's got the shoulders down!
Shayna's got a kick!

1450
01:19:45,113 --> 01:19:47,816
Went for the knee. Morgan, Codebreaker!

1451
01:19:48,784 --> 01:19:52,654
And now Liv Morgan has Shayna
set up for Oblivion!

1452
01:19:52,721 --> 01:19:55,857
Morgan into the cover!
Can she do it? Will she do it?

1453
01:19:55,924 --> 01:19:56,925
She does!

1454
01:19:56,992 --> 01:19:57,993
[bell dings]

1455
01:19:58,059 --> 01:19:59,961
[Liv Morgan's theme music playing]

1456
01:20:00,028 --> 01:20:01,696
[announcer] Here is your winner,

1457
01:20:01,763 --> 01:20:07,102
and still the SmackDown
Women's Champion,

1458
01:20:07,169 --> 01:20:11,540
Liv Morgan!

1459
01:20:11,606 --> 01:20:14,743
[Cole] What a gutsy win for Liv Morgan.

1460
01:20:14,809 --> 01:20:17,746
[Corey] Yeah, this is one of those cases,
I'm looking at Liv Morgan,

1461
01:20:17,813 --> 01:20:20,582
I'm looking at everything
that was done to Liv Morgan,

1462
01:20:20,649 --> 01:20:24,186
and I'm going, "I have no idea
how Liv Morgan pulled this one out!"

1463
01:20:24,920 --> 01:20:26,555
[Cole] I'm not sure Liv does either.

1464
01:20:26,621 --> 01:20:29,291
But nonetheless, she's still
the SmackDown Women's Champion.

1465
01:20:29,357 --> 01:20:31,259
This was a physical matchup.

1466
01:20:31,326 --> 01:20:33,061
But first Liv would hit the Codebreaker,

1467
01:20:33,128 --> 01:20:37,432
and that sets up Shayna Baszler,
perfect position for the Oblivion, Corey.

1468
01:20:37,499 --> 01:20:39,801
Liv Morgan lives to fight another day.

1469
01:20:39,868 --> 01:20:43,238
[Corey] It was the one-two punch, it was
the Codebreaker paired with Oblivion,

1470
01:20:43,305 --> 01:20:46,274
back-to-back,
no time for Baszler to recover.

1471
01:20:46,341 --> 01:20:51,079
Two strong shots by the champion,
and Liv Morgan retains.

1472
01:20:53,548 --> 01:20:58,353
A gutsy, yet gratifying performance

1473
01:20:58,420 --> 01:21:03,758
by the still SmackDown
Women's Champion, Liv Morgan.

1474
01:21:07,395 --> 01:21:09,531
[Cole] Liv Morgan
celebrating the retention

1475
01:21:09,598 --> 01:21:13,068
of the SmackDown Women's title
here tonight,

1476
01:21:14,169 --> 01:21:16,004
on a massive stage.

1477
01:21:16,605 --> 01:21:19,808
And when you think about it, Corey,
Morgan's retained at SummerSlam

1478
01:21:19,875 --> 01:21:21,810
in front of over 50,000,

1479
01:21:21,876 --> 01:21:26,815
and tonight at Clash at the Castle,
in front of over 60,000 fans.

[narrator] WWE Shop,

1482
01:21:57,746 --> 01:22:00,315
It is quite the weekend
for sports entertainment tonight,

1483
01:22:00,382 --> 01:22:02,317
or this afternoon, here in Cardiff.

1484

Tomorrow, special start time,

Idol unification,
NXT UK Champion Tyler Bate

1488
01:22:12,027 --> 01:22:14,663
one-on-one
with NXT Champion Bron Breakker.

1489
01:22:14,729 --> 01:22:16,932
There can only be one.

1490
01:22:16,998 --> 01:22:20,235
And that goes for the women's division
as well. You're not gonna wanna miss it.

1491
01:22:22,370 --> 01:22:25,640
[announcer] Please welcome
our special guests tonight.

1492
01:22:25,707 --> 01:22:28,043
From Bryn Mawr, Wales,

1493
01:22:28,109 --> 01:22:31,279
UK wrestling legend, Miss Linda,

1494
01:22:31,346 --> 01:22:34,849
and "Exotic" Adrian Street!

1495
01:22:34,916 --> 01:22:36,518
[crowd cheering]

1496
01:22:36,584 --> 01:22:38,653
[Cole] One of the most
flamboyant personalities

1497
01:22:38,720 --> 01:22:42,023
in all of professional wrestling,
Adrian Street,

1498
01:22:42,090 --> 01:22:45,727
and of course,
his longtime manager, Miss Linda.

1499
01:22:45,794 --> 01:22:47,862
[Saxton] Flamboyant, but tough as nails.

1500
01:22:47,929 --> 01:22:49,497
[Corey] And from Wales.

1501
01:22:51,099 --> 01:22:53,101
[upbeat music playing]

1502
01:22:57,305 --> 01:22:59,307
[crowd cheering]

1503
01:23:00,709 --> 01:23:02,610
[Cole] Coming up next,
ladies and gentlemen,

1504
01:23:02,677 --> 01:23:04,079
the reuniting of two legends.

1505
01:23:04,145 --> 01:23:06,648
Former tag team champions,
The Rated-R Superstar Edge

1506
01:23:06,715 --> 01:23:10,986
and high-flying Rey Mysterio
versus this obnoxious,

1507
01:23:11,052 --> 01:23:16,458
this eerie group
set on changing the landscape of WWE.

1508
01:23:20,161 --> 01:23:22,230
[Rhea] The Judgment Day.

1509
01:23:23,431 --> 01:23:25,967
We run Monday Night RAW.

1510
01:23:27,235 --> 01:23:31,439
And that's been the harsh reality
to the Mysterios

1511
01:23:31,506 --> 01:23:34,242
week in and week out.

1512
01:23:35,543 --> 01:23:37,479
I even proved to Dominik Mysterio

1513
01:23:37,545 --> 01:23:43,184
that I really am his pappy
as I destroyed his soul.

1514
01:23:43,818 --> 01:23:45,253
[man 1] What the hell?

1515
01:23:45,887 --> 01:23:47,188
[man 2] It's Dominik.

1516
01:23:50,558 --> 01:23:55,864
[Bálor] And as for Rey,
he is six-one-mine.

1517
01:23:55,930 --> 01:23:57,632
-[man 3] Oh, no.
-[man 4] Oh!

1518
01:23:58,867 --> 01:24:02,604
Coup de Grâce delivered
with the steel chair

1519
01:24:02,670 --> 01:24:05,807
draped over the body of Rey Mysterio.

1520
01:24:05,874 --> 01:24:07,876
[man 5] Last week, Dominik,

1521
01:24:07,942 --> 01:24:09,244
this week, Rey.

1522
01:24:09,310 --> 01:24:13,548
[Damian] That only leaves one
lonely legend to deal with, Edge.

1523
01:24:15,950 --> 01:24:18,586
You may have started The Judgment Day,

1524
01:24:19,387 --> 01:24:23,191
but The Judgment Day will end you.

1525
01:24:23,858 --> 01:24:29,230
[Bálor] I am so sick
and tired of these so-called legends.

1526
01:24:29,898 --> 01:24:32,233
Edge thinks we should fear him.

1527
01:24:33,101 --> 01:24:39,441
The Judgment Day isn't afraid
of anyone because fear isn't real.

1528
01:24:39,507 --> 01:24:44,245
Fear is a product of your imagination.

1529
01:24:44,312 --> 01:24:47,148
Edge, we finish you tonight!

1530
01:24:47,215 --> 01:24:51,352
Tonight you face your Judgment Day!

1531
01:24:55,356 --> 01:24:58,059
[Edge] I didn't come back
to steal your glory.

1532
01:24:58,126 --> 01:25:00,695
As a matter of fact, I came back

1533
01:25:00,762 --> 01:25:05,266
to teach you what it is to reach my glory
because I've already had it.

1534
01:25:05,967 --> 01:25:08,937
But your ego was too big
and gotten in the way.

1535
01:25:09,003 --> 01:25:10,705
Here's what you didn't learn

1536
01:25:10,772 --> 01:25:13,308
all those months
sitting under my learning tree.

1537
01:25:13,374 --> 01:25:17,779
You didn't pay attention
because I didn't come here alone.

1538
01:25:17,846 --> 01:25:20,915
[man 1] Oh! Rey and Dominik Mysterio!

1539
01:25:20,982 --> 01:25:24,219
[man 2] Edge vowed to kill
what he created!

1540
01:25:24,285 --> 01:25:27,088
He vowed to kill The Judgment Day!

1541
01:25:27,155 --> 01:25:28,990
[man 1] Whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa!

1542
01:25:40,235 --> 01:25:42,704
See the conflict
in the eyes of Dominik.

1543
01:25:48,343 --> 01:25:49,544
Dominik's torn.

1544
01:25:54,582 --> 01:25:56,184
What are you doing, Dominik?

1545
01:25:59,621 --> 01:26:00,755
Bring it!

1546
01:26:01,389 --> 01:26:03,858
[man 1] Rhea looks ready
to fight everyone!

1547
01:26:04,425 --> 01:26:06,261
I'm gonna hit you! Come on!

1548
01:26:08,229 --> 01:26:11,032
[man 1] This war is far from over
with The Judgment Day.

1549
01:26:11,099 --> 01:26:13,768
[man 2] Judgment Day is on notice!

1550
01:26:19,674 --> 01:26:21,676
[Rey Mysterio's theme song playing]

1551
01:26:21,743 --> 01:26:23,745
[crowd cheering]

1552
01:26:50,305 --> 01:26:51,372
[bell dings]

1553
01:26:51,439 --> 01:26:53,708
[announcer] The following contest
is a tag team match

1554
01:26:53,775 --> 01:26:55,376
scheduled for one fall.

1555
01:26:55,443 --> 01:26:59,681
Introducing first, accompanied
to the ring by Dominik Mysterio,

1556
01:26:59,747 --> 01:27:01,783
from San Diego, California,

1557
01:27:01,849 --> 01:27:05,019
weighing in at 175n pounds,

1558
01:27:05,086 --> 01:27:08,323
Rey Mysterio!

1559
01:27:08,389 --> 01:27:10,892
[Cole] You know,
this is an interesting story here

1560
01:27:10,959 --> 01:27:14,596
between Rey and Dominik which
we'll get into as this match unfolds.

1561
01:27:14,662 --> 01:27:17,265
You know, Rey's been called
the Little League Coach by many,

1562
01:27:17,332 --> 01:27:19,534
perhaps, putting a little
too much pressure on his son,

1563
01:27:19,601 --> 01:27:22,036
but Dominik has shown
some jealous tendencies,

1564
01:27:22,103 --> 01:27:26,241
uh, as of late, including telling his dad,
"I can't believe you chose Edge again

1565
01:27:26,307 --> 01:27:28,309
"to participate in this match tonight

1566
01:27:28,376 --> 01:27:29,811
"instead of your own son, Dominik."

1567
01:27:29,877 --> 01:27:32,280
[Corey] Well, Dominik needs to stop
being a petulant cry baby

1568
01:27:32,347 --> 01:27:36,150
and realize that his father needs
a Hall of Famer by his side

1569
01:27:36,217 --> 01:27:38,886
to deal with the threat posed
by The Judgment Day

1570
01:27:38,953 --> 01:27:41,923
who have made life hell
for both Mysterios.

1571
01:27:41,990 --> 01:27:43,791
Dominik needs to swallow his pride,

1572
01:27:43,858 --> 01:27:45,426
realize his day will come,

1573
01:27:45,493 --> 01:27:48,997
and let business be handled
by Edge and Rey Mysterio.

1574
01:27:49,063 --> 01:27:52,767
[Saxton] Well, Dominik is very proud
of his family name,

1575
01:27:52,834 --> 01:27:56,271
he should understand why Dominik
would stand side-by-side

1576
01:27:56,337 --> 01:27:57,705
with his father Rey Mysterio

1577
01:27:57,772 --> 01:28:00,708
in this continued conflict
with The Judgment Day.

1578
01:28:00,775 --> 01:28:02,777
[Edge's theme song playing]

1579
01:28:02,844 --> 01:28:04,846
[crowd cheering]

1580
01:28:36,477 --> 01:28:37,979
[Cole] I think Edge is fired up.

1581
01:28:39,113 --> 01:28:40,715
[Saxton] That's a pretty safe bet.

1582
01:28:45,687 --> 01:28:51,993
[announcer] And his tag team partner,
WWE Hall of Famer

1583
01:28:52,060 --> 01:28:55,563
The Rated-R Superstar,

1584
01:28:55,630 --> 01:28:58,466
Edge!

1585
01:28:58,533 --> 01:29:02,270
[Corey] Don't worry, Saxton, that is Edge.
That is The Rated-R Superstar.

1586
01:29:02,337 --> 01:29:05,707
Obviously, dawning a mask for solidarity
with Rey Mysterio.

1587
01:29:05,773 --> 01:29:07,275
[Saxton] Thank you for confirming.

1588
01:29:07,342 --> 01:29:09,410
[Cole] You know, remember,
Edge and Rey Mysterio

1589
01:29:09,477 --> 01:29:11,879
once won the tag team titles together

1590
01:29:11,946 --> 01:29:14,282
back in November of 2002.

1591
01:29:14,849 --> 01:29:18,219
And for the first time in over ten years,
they tagged together

1592
01:29:18,286 --> 01:29:20,655
in a traditional tag team match tonight.

1593
01:29:20,722 --> 01:29:23,858
[Corey] That's one of the reasons why
Edge is so fired up,

1594
01:29:23,925 --> 01:29:28,096
in addition to this 60,000 plus
here in Cardiff.

1595
01:29:31,666 --> 01:29:34,502
[Cole] Remember, Edge has returned
back at SummerSlam,

1596
01:29:34,569 --> 01:29:36,971
helped the Mysterios
knock off The Judgment Day.

1597
01:29:38,005 --> 01:29:41,242
Edge is actually a founder of that group,
but then got kicked out.

1598
01:29:42,510 --> 01:29:43,811
By Finn Bálor and company.

1599
01:29:44,545 --> 01:29:46,380
[Saxton] This has become very personal

1600
01:29:46,447 --> 01:29:49,450
not just for Edge, but Rey Mysterio
looking to prove

1601
01:29:49,517 --> 01:29:52,653
they will not be the doormats
for The Judgment Day.

1602
01:29:52,720 --> 01:29:54,722
[Cole] Judgment Day have stated
their mission

1603
01:29:54,789 --> 01:29:59,994
is to destroy all of the WWE Universe's
favorite idols one-by-one.

1604
01:30:00,061 --> 01:30:01,729
Tonight, they may double up.

1605
01:30:02,864 --> 01:30:06,033
[crowd chanting] Edge! Edge! Edge! Edge!

1606
01:30:19,881 --> 01:30:21,883
[crowd cheering]

1607
01:30:31,993 --> 01:30:33,995
[cheering continues]

1608
01:30:38,900 --> 01:30:40,902
[The Judgment Day's theme music playing]

1609
01:31:10,198 --> 01:31:11,666
[announcer] And their opponents,

1610
01:31:11,732 --> 01:31:15,036
accompanied to the ring by Rhea Ripley

1611
01:31:15,102 --> 01:31:18,172
Finn Bálor and Damian Priest,

1612
01:31:18,239 --> 01:31:21,843
The Judgment Day!

1613
01:31:21,909 --> 01:31:27,381
[Cole] The mesmerizing,
magnetic Rhea Ripley

1614
01:31:27,448 --> 01:31:30,284
lead by Finn Bálor and Damian Priest

1615
01:31:30,351 --> 01:31:35,990
But, Corey, tell me what The Judgment Day
wants here in WWE?

1616
01:31:36,057 --> 01:31:40,294
[Corey] The Judgment Day looks
to change the business by force.

1617
01:31:40,361 --> 01:31:44,065
Rebuild the roster in their own image.

1618
01:31:44,131 --> 01:31:49,170
Tear down the idols of yesteryear
and become the stars of tomorrow.

1619
01:31:49,237 --> 01:31:51,305
Tonight is a night of great significance,

1620
01:31:51,372 --> 01:31:55,376
but Finn Bálor in particular, who told me
he wrestled here in Cardiff

1621
01:31:55,443 --> 01:31:59,013
nearly 20 years ago for a company
called Hammerlock Wrestling

1622
01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:01,782
in front of about 60 people.

1623
01:32:02,350 --> 01:32:03,351
Sixty.

1624
01:32:03,417 --> 01:32:09,624
He is in front of 60,000 plus members
of the WWE Universe tonight

1625
01:32:09,690 --> 01:32:13,828
in the spotlight where he belongs,
where he wants to be

1626
01:32:13,895 --> 01:32:18,666
with The Eradicator
and the punishment by his side.

1627
01:32:23,538 --> 01:32:26,941
[Cole] There is the game-changer,
the X-Factor.

1628
01:32:28,042 --> 01:32:31,812
Hypnotic in many ways,
that's Dominik Mysterio.

1629
01:32:32,580 --> 01:32:36,284
[Corey] Hypnotic, wicked, predictable.

1630
01:32:37,652 --> 01:32:41,055
She's really become a game-changer
for The Judgment Day.

1631
01:32:45,393 --> 01:32:49,096
[Saxton] These three have fed off
ruffling the feathers

1632
01:32:49,163 --> 01:32:51,632
of those who have been established
in our industry,

1633
01:32:52,233 --> 01:32:56,437
and their two top targets
are Edge and Rey Mysterio.

1634
01:32:57,505 --> 01:33:00,474
[Cole] The Judgment Day
has refused to be deterred

1635
01:33:00,541 --> 01:33:03,577
even while being defeated
several weeks back in Toronto

1636
01:33:03,644 --> 01:33:05,246
by The Rated-R Superstar,

1637
01:33:05,313 --> 01:33:08,049
Damian Priest got the last laugh.

1638
01:33:08,115 --> 01:33:11,919
[Corey] The Judgment Day perpetuate
are the last ones laughing.

1639
01:33:16,190 --> 01:33:18,225
[Cole] So, this is a very personal battle

1640
01:33:19,026 --> 01:33:20,861
with Edge and Mysterio.

1641
01:33:22,563 --> 01:33:25,032
Dominik rallying the WWE fans,

1642
01:33:25,099 --> 01:33:27,602
made the promise
to be in the corner here tonight

1643
01:33:27,668 --> 01:33:30,671
as Mysterio and Edge reunite.

1644
01:33:30,738 --> 01:33:33,074
A classic tag team from SmackDown.

1645
01:33:33,841 --> 01:33:35,876
Some 20 years ago.

1646
01:33:37,345 --> 01:33:40,147
And Finn Bálor who has sort of become
the leader of The Judgment Day

1647
01:33:40,214 --> 01:33:44,218
ever since Edge was sent out of the group.

1648
01:33:44,819 --> 01:33:47,788
[Corey] I think, Edge, sorry, I think
Finn Bálor would resent that comment.

1649
01:33:47,855 --> 01:33:50,791
I don't believe that Judgment Day
look at each other

1650
01:33:50,858 --> 01:33:51,959
as any sort of hierarchy.

1651
01:33:52,026 --> 01:33:55,363
They are all on a level playing field
with one similar goal.

1652
01:33:56,097 --> 01:34:00,501
Finn Bálor and Rey Mysterio start off
this tag team matchup!

1653
01:34:00,568 --> 01:34:02,737
Rey Mysterio ledging his own right.

1654
01:34:02,803 --> 01:34:05,106
Surefire Hall of Famer,
no doubt about that.

1655
01:34:05,172 --> 01:34:06,474
Oh, and Bálor though…

1656
01:34:07,408 --> 01:34:10,644
[Saxton] It's interesting, a couple weeks
ago, after Bálor defeated Rey Mysterio,

1657
01:34:10,711 --> 01:34:13,247
he said that he solidified
his own legendary status

1658
01:34:13,314 --> 01:34:14,982
at the-- Oh!

1659
01:34:15,049 --> 01:34:16,917
[Cole] Very aggressive Bálor
to start here.

1660
01:34:17,551 --> 01:34:18,919
Listen, Finn Bálor,

1661
01:34:18,986 --> 01:34:21,489
the first ever Universal Champion in WWE,

1662
01:34:22,189 --> 01:34:24,525
and an Intercontinental
and United States Champion as well,

1663
01:34:24,592 --> 01:34:26,827
and also a two-time NXT Champion.

1664
01:34:27,461 --> 01:34:29,897
[Corey] Mysterio up and over,
looking to push the pace.

1665
01:34:29,964 --> 01:34:31,699
And Mysterio

1666
01:34:32,433 --> 01:34:36,704
uses his legs and feet
just as well as his fists and arms.

1667
01:34:38,139 --> 01:34:40,307
And Bálor up over the top.

1668
01:34:40,374 --> 01:34:42,343
Rey rolls through
and catches Finn with a kick.

1669
01:34:43,978 --> 01:34:46,147
[Corey] Good strike ability
of Rey Mysterio on display.

1670
01:34:46,213 --> 01:34:49,450
Although, Bálor one of the few superstars
who can match Rey Mysterio

1671
01:34:49,517 --> 01:34:51,352
in the speed department.

1672
01:34:51,419 --> 01:34:53,688
And when it comes
to Rey Mysterio and Edge,

1673
01:34:53,754 --> 01:34:55,723
there truely isn't much. if anything,

1674
01:34:55,790 --> 01:34:58,692
that the two of them have not experienced
in this business.

1675
01:34:58,759 --> 01:35:00,561
So, look for The Judgment Day

1676
01:35:00,628 --> 01:35:03,130
to maybe show us something
we haven't seen before.

1677
01:35:03,197 --> 01:35:04,932
Because you can't rely on old tricks

1678
01:35:04,999 --> 01:35:07,268
when you're dealing with veterans
and Hall of Famers.

1679
01:35:07,334 --> 01:35:11,238
[Cole] Damian Priest, of course,
who had a run in with Edge,

1680
01:35:11,305 --> 01:35:14,542
in Edge's hometown of Toronto,
a couple of weeks ago on Monday Night RAW.

1681
01:35:14,608 --> 01:35:15,976
[Corey] Priest wants Edge.

1682
01:35:16,043 --> 01:35:17,778
[crowd cheering]

1683
01:35:17,845 --> 01:35:20,147
Cardiff wants Edge as well.

1684
01:35:21,282 --> 01:35:23,718
And Edge happily will oblige.

1685
01:35:23,784 --> 01:35:25,786
[crowd cheering]

1686
01:35:25,853 --> 01:35:29,857
[Cole] And here comes
the 11-time World Champion.

1687
01:35:33,360 --> 01:35:35,663
Edge has been the King of the Ring,
Mr. Money in the Bank,

1688
01:35:35,730 --> 01:35:37,131
he's won the Royal Rumble twice.

1689
01:35:37,198 --> 01:35:40,868
And Damian Priest with a right hand
drops the veteran.

1690
01:35:41,569 --> 01:35:43,471
And Edge walked right into that.

1691
01:35:43,537 --> 01:35:45,539
And Priest showing you
what he's all about.

1692
01:35:45,606 --> 01:35:47,208
Power, finesse.

1693
01:35:48,275 --> 01:35:50,511
[Corey] Believe you me,
Damian Priest learned a lot

1694
01:35:50,578 --> 01:35:52,713
from his encounter with Edge
a couple weeks ago--

1695
01:35:52,780 --> 01:35:54,749
Oh! In Toronto.

1696
01:35:56,750 --> 01:35:59,120
[Cole] Watch the right here.
Bam!

1697
01:35:59,186 --> 01:36:01,755
You know, Tyson Fury's here tonight,
looking on.

1698
01:36:01,822 --> 01:36:04,458
He would've been proud
of that right by Priest.

1699
01:36:05,693 --> 01:36:07,862
Edge, trying to corner back
from in the ring.

1700
01:36:07,928 --> 01:36:10,397
Rey Mysterio helped his partner out

1701
01:36:10,464 --> 01:36:12,833
protected Edge from going completely
into the corner!

1702
01:36:12,900 --> 01:36:15,102
And now Edge unloading on Priest!

1703
01:36:15,169 --> 01:36:17,872
[Corey] We talked about it earlier
tonight in the six-women tag,

1704
01:36:17,938 --> 01:36:20,574
tag team chemistry counts for so much.

1705
01:36:20,641 --> 01:36:22,910
Edge and Mysterio obviously still have it.

1706
01:36:22,977 --> 01:36:25,646
Bálor tried to do the same thing,
but not quite effective.

1707
01:36:25,713 --> 01:36:29,216
Edge reversed it and then took power out
with a kick to the midsection!

1708
01:36:33,020 --> 01:36:35,356
[Cole] And now Priest sent
over the top rope, tag made.

1709
01:36:35,422 --> 01:36:36,991
Rey Mysterio's legal.

1710
01:36:37,057 --> 01:36:39,860
[Saxton] They're about to take flight!

1711
01:36:39,927 --> 01:36:43,931
[Cole] And Edge now launching Mysterio
into The Judgment Day!

1712
01:36:44,532 --> 01:36:46,033
[Saxton] A little assist from Edge.

1713
01:36:46,100 --> 01:36:48,102
[crowd cheering]

1714
01:36:56,944 --> 01:36:59,113
[Cole] Now, Mysterio into the ring.

1715
01:36:59,180 --> 01:37:01,949
Kicks to the hamstrings
of the larger Damian Priest.

1716
01:37:05,452 --> 01:37:07,922
Uh-oh, oh, and Priest catches Mysterio

1717
01:37:07,988 --> 01:37:09,924
in mid-air

1718
01:37:09,990 --> 01:37:11,892
and now a vertical slam!

1719
01:37:12,426 --> 01:37:14,361
[Saxton] A modified Broken Arrow
by Priest

1720
01:37:14,428 --> 01:37:17,131
just stopped the momentum of Rey Mysterio.

1721
01:37:17,198 --> 01:37:19,166
[Cole] Cover--
Thought Priest going for the cover,

1722
01:37:19,233 --> 01:37:22,469
but he wants to inflict more punishment
on Rey Mysterio.

1723
01:37:22,536 --> 01:37:25,639
[Saxton] This is about proving a point
for all of Judgment Day

1724
01:37:25,706 --> 01:37:28,275
that the expiration date

1725
01:37:28,342 --> 01:37:31,478
of Edge and Rey Mysterio's career is near.

1726
01:37:34,415 --> 01:37:36,417
[Cole] And Priest has a major problem
with Edge.

1727
01:37:36,483 --> 01:37:39,954
And Finn Bálor made sure Mysterio
did not come out of the corner.

1728
01:37:40,020 --> 01:37:41,355
Makes the tag.

1729
01:37:42,122 --> 01:37:43,357
Pow!

1730
01:37:44,391 --> 01:37:46,927
[Corey] Blade-like precision
from the prince.

1731
01:37:46,994 --> 01:37:49,563
Stomping Mysterio right in the heart.

1732
01:37:49,630 --> 01:37:51,532
[crowd booing]

1733
01:37:56,670 --> 01:38:01,008
[Cole] And now Finn and Damian Priest
have successfully slowed Mysterio down.

1734
01:38:03,277 --> 01:38:05,379
And will keep Rey isolated
in their corner.

1735
01:38:08,148 --> 01:38:10,050
-Backbreaker.
-[Mysterio grunts in pain]

1736
01:38:10,117 --> 01:38:11,318
Two!

1737
01:38:11,385 --> 01:38:14,488
-[Cole] Priest with a big legdrop!
-[Corey] Yeah, human beings--

1738
01:38:14,555 --> 01:38:16,523
Cover on Rey.
Is it enough to put him away?

1739
01:38:16,590 --> 01:38:17,791
And a kick-out at two.

1740
01:38:18,659 --> 01:38:22,763
[Corey] Rey instinctively reaching,
but a long ways away from tagging in Edge.

1741
01:38:24,298 --> 01:38:25,766
Full extension and…

1742
01:38:26,567 --> 01:38:31,338
the leg of Priest right across the neck
and collar bones of Mysterio.

1743
01:38:31,405 --> 01:38:33,440
Things beginning to look bleak for Rey.

1744
01:38:35,309 --> 01:38:37,011
[Cole] Massive crowd here tonight

1745
01:38:37,878 --> 01:38:40,180
Principality Stadium in Cardiff,
looking on.

1746
01:38:41,048 --> 01:38:42,349
It's been electric.

1747
01:38:43,284 --> 01:38:45,653
Mysterio, kick to Priest,

1748
01:38:45,719 --> 01:38:48,522
looking to rally
and Priest drops Rey again,

1749
01:38:48,589 --> 01:38:50,858
and gets between Edge and Rey.

1750
01:38:54,428 --> 01:38:56,130
-[referee] Hey, hey!
-[Cole] Oh, wow.

1751
01:38:57,298 --> 01:38:59,700
[Cole] Unbelievable disrespect.

1752
01:38:59,767 --> 01:39:02,469
[Saxton] You see how consumed
Damian Priest continues to be

1753
01:39:02,536 --> 01:39:04,371
with getting into the head of Edge.

1754
01:39:04,438 --> 01:39:07,942
[Corey] Is that the case, Byron?
Or is Priest in the head of Edge?

1755
01:39:08,008 --> 01:39:10,144
And Priest is just watching
The Rated-R Superstar

1756
01:39:10,210 --> 01:39:12,012
Come apart at the seams.

1757
01:39:12,079 --> 01:39:14,281
[Cole] And a great double-team
by The Judgment Day.

1758
01:39:15,249 --> 01:39:16,717
And-- Oh!

1759
01:39:16,784 --> 01:39:18,519
Axe kick right to the back of the neck,

1760
01:39:18,585 --> 01:39:21,388
cover now on Mysterio by Finn
who powers out at two.

1761
01:39:21,956 --> 01:39:24,091
[Corey] I would just caution Damian Priest

1762
01:39:24,725 --> 01:39:27,261
of inciting the Rated-R Superstar.

1763
01:39:27,328 --> 01:39:29,697
Lest he feel the full wrath.

1764
01:39:29,763 --> 01:39:31,465
[Cole] Suplex by Bálor.

1765
01:39:31,532 --> 01:39:33,300
And now Finn…

1766
01:39:33,367 --> 01:39:34,501
Uh…

1767
01:39:34,568 --> 01:39:37,071
[Saxton] Talk about inciting,
talk about disrespecting more.

1768
01:39:37,738 --> 01:39:39,640
[Cole] I thought he was gonna try
Three Amigos

1769
01:39:39,707 --> 01:39:42,943
which of course was made famous
by Rey's best friend,

1770
01:39:43,010 --> 01:39:44,778
the late great Eddie Guerrero.

1771
01:39:45,346 --> 01:39:46,947
[Rhea] What are you looking at, kid?

1772
01:39:50,651 --> 01:39:54,154
[Saxton] This is a new viciousness,
new aggressiveness out of Finn Bálor.

1773
01:39:54,221 --> 01:39:56,290
Very little wasted motion these days
from Bálor.

1774
01:39:56,357 --> 01:39:58,359
Very concise in his movements.

1775
01:39:58,425 --> 01:40:01,528
Every attempt at anything
needs a great deal.

1776
01:40:04,331 --> 01:40:05,599
No. No.

1777
01:40:06,533 --> 01:40:08,769
-[Cole] She's talking to you, Byron.
-[Rhea] You shut up!

1778
01:40:09,370 --> 01:40:11,071
[Saxton] I don't have a problem with you.

1779
01:40:12,906 --> 01:40:14,408
[Cole] Rey trying to fight out.

1780
01:40:14,475 --> 01:40:16,443
[Corey] Unless she's got
bigger delts than you.

1781
01:40:16,510 --> 01:40:17,678
[men laugh]

1782
01:40:17,745 --> 01:40:19,446
[Cole] That's what Corey says.

1783
01:40:20,447 --> 01:40:22,816
Oh! Knee wrecked
to the midsection by Bálor.

1784
01:40:22,883 --> 01:40:25,319
Again, Mysterio not able
to make a tag as he set--

1785
01:40:25,386 --> 01:40:26,854
-[Saxton] Oh!
-[Cole] Rey goes low!

1786
01:40:26,920 --> 01:40:29,423
Took out the knee of Finn Bálor,
face first off the turnbuckle.

1787
01:40:29,490 --> 01:40:31,658
-Rey's got a chance.
-[Saxton] This is key right now.

1788
01:40:31,725 --> 01:40:35,062
Rey Mysterio
has got to make the tag now.

1789
01:40:38,399 --> 01:40:40,934
[Cole] Rey trying to drag himself
to the corner and Edge…

1790
01:40:41,001 --> 01:40:42,803
Finn Bálor trying to hang on.

1791
01:40:44,571 --> 01:40:48,075
And The Biggest Little Man
in the history of WWE with an enzuigiri.

1792
01:40:48,142 --> 01:40:50,077
But Bálor was able
to make the tag to Priest

1793
01:40:50,144 --> 01:40:52,379
who delivers a boot to Edge
and knocks him off the apron.

1794
01:40:54,915 --> 01:40:56,884
[Saxton] The Judgment Day is just low.

1795
01:40:57,751 --> 01:41:00,054
[Cole] On the same page all night long.

1796
01:41:01,121 --> 01:41:04,024
[Corey] The Judgment Day
have done a fantastic job

1797
01:41:04,091 --> 01:41:05,926
of sticking to their gameplan.

1798
01:41:07,261 --> 01:41:11,365
[Cole] And now as referee Jessika Carr
was busy with Damian Priest,

1799
01:41:11,432 --> 01:41:15,969
Bálor tried to attack and Mysterio
sent him into the WWE Universe.

1800
01:41:17,838 --> 01:41:20,941
[Saxton] And Mysterio
on top of the barricade!

1801
01:41:21,008 --> 01:41:23,110
[Corey] Look out, Priest from behind.

1802
01:41:23,177 --> 01:41:24,878
-Oh, my God!
-[Saxton] I don't like this.

1803
01:41:24,945 --> 01:41:26,346
I don't like this at all.

1804
01:41:27,381 --> 01:41:29,883
-Nope.
-[Cole] Mysterio trying to fight back.

1805
01:41:30,784 --> 01:41:32,686
-On top--
-[all exclaim]

1806
01:41:32,753 --> 01:41:37,324
[Cole] Damian Priest is gonna
have a long flight back to the States.

1807
01:41:38,725 --> 01:41:40,327
[breathing heavily]

1808
01:41:44,098 --> 01:41:46,099
[Saxton] … story right there
for Damian Priest,

1809
01:41:46,166 --> 01:41:50,170
in the meantime, can Rey Mysterio
finally make it back into the ring?

1810
01:41:50,237 --> 01:41:53,540
And more importantly, to tag in Edge!

1811
01:41:53,607 --> 01:41:55,876
[Cole] Edge is on the apron, ready to go.

1812
01:41:55,943 --> 01:41:59,046
Mysterio trying to drag himself
across the ring.

1813
01:41:59,746 --> 01:42:01,882
[Saxton] Mysterio with a clear path.

1814
01:42:01,949 --> 01:42:05,152
[Cole] Rhea shouting at Priest and Bálor
to get back in.

1815
01:42:05,219 --> 01:42:08,021
She understands what's gonna happen
if Edge comes into the ring.

1816
01:42:08,088 --> 01:42:09,923
The roof's gonna blow off this place.

1817
01:42:09,990 --> 01:42:11,258
[Saxton] Rey's gotta hurry!

1818
01:42:12,626 --> 01:42:14,128
[Cole] Damian Priest though

1819
01:42:14,194 --> 01:42:16,196
able to use his long body

1820
01:42:16,263 --> 01:42:18,765
to grab the leg of Mysterio,
prevent him from making the tag,

1821
01:42:18,832 --> 01:42:20,200
drag him back toward the corner.

1822
01:42:20,267 --> 01:42:21,635
But maybe not.

1823
01:42:21,702 --> 01:42:24,071
Rey, tag, here's Edge!

1824
01:42:24,138 --> 01:42:26,306
[Saxton] And ready to unleash the rage!

1825
01:42:26,373 --> 01:42:28,509
Here comes the Rated-R Superstar.

1826
01:42:29,243 --> 01:42:32,813
[Cole] And Edge with a clothesline
and a boot, taking out The Judgment Day!

1827
01:42:36,717 --> 01:42:39,119
Right there, the Edgecution…

1828
01:42:39,820 --> 01:42:41,255
[crowd cheering]

1829
01:42:41,321 --> 01:42:42,556
…by Edge!

1830
01:42:47,060 --> 01:42:49,863
[Saxton] And Edge understands
the magnitude of a moment,

1831
01:42:49,930 --> 01:42:52,699
the importance of a victory here tonight

1832
01:42:52,766 --> 01:42:54,301
over The Judgment Day.

1833
01:42:55,402 --> 01:42:57,638
[Cole] Damian Priest jump on the apron,

1834
01:42:57,704 --> 01:43:00,240
took Edge's attention momentarily.

1835
01:43:00,307 --> 01:43:02,409
Mysterio now sends Priest flying!

1836
01:43:04,178 --> 01:43:05,712
And now Edge!

1837
01:43:07,214 --> 01:43:08,482
Is he thinking about it?

1838
01:43:08,549 --> 01:43:10,450
[Saxton] He better not be.

1839
01:43:10,517 --> 01:43:12,986
-We're in Cardiff--
-[Cole] He is! He is!

1840
01:43:13,053 --> 01:43:14,521
619!

1841
01:43:14,588 --> 01:43:17,291
[Corey] I thought
that was a more of a 519.

1842
01:43:17,357 --> 01:43:18,759
[Saxton] It's good enough.

1843
01:43:19,826 --> 01:43:22,362
[Cole] And Mysterio with the splash!

1844
01:43:24,164 --> 01:43:26,133
Cover by Edge!

1845
01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:27,668
[crowd] One, two--

1846
01:43:27,734 --> 01:43:31,171
[Cole] And Damian Priest
breaking things off.

1847
01:43:31,238 --> 01:43:35,008
[Corey] Long ranging legs
from outside the ring.

1848
01:43:35,075 --> 01:43:36,476
Priest keeping this one going

1849
01:43:36,543 --> 01:43:39,947
and now has Mysterio in his clutches.

1850
01:43:41,248 --> 01:43:43,850
[Cole] Rey climb up the second rope,
trying to take Priest out.

1851
01:43:43,917 --> 01:43:45,052
Rey could be in trouble.

1852
01:43:45,118 --> 01:43:47,821
-[Saxton] Oh, my God!
-[Cole] Oh! And spear by Edge!

1853
01:43:47,888 --> 01:43:49,256
[Saxton] Holy moly!

1854
01:43:53,193 --> 01:43:55,963
[Cole] Dominik's expression
tells the story.

1855
01:43:57,331 --> 01:43:59,533
Edge spearing Priest

1856
01:44:00,567 --> 01:44:02,469
off the apron to the floor!

1857
01:44:03,103 --> 01:44:05,872
[Saxton] We got about 60,000 plus
with the same expression.

1858
01:44:07,975 --> 01:44:09,176
[Cole] And Mysterio

1859
01:44:09,876 --> 01:44:11,778
dumped out by Bálor,

1860
01:44:11,845 --> 01:44:14,448
a very angry Finn Bálor.

1861
01:44:16,583 --> 01:44:19,553
[Saxton] Let's see
if Bálor can channel that anger.

1862
01:44:19,620 --> 01:44:20,787
[Cole] Maybe not.

1863
01:44:21,521 --> 01:44:23,357
Edge back into the ring.

1864
01:44:23,423 --> 01:44:25,626
Bálor! Sling Blade!

1865
01:44:26,727 --> 01:44:27,928
Yeah!

1866
01:44:29,329 --> 01:44:32,032
[Cole] Rhea Ripley loves it,
and now Finn Bálor

1867
01:44:32,699 --> 01:44:34,501
looking to put Edge away!

1868
01:44:35,535 --> 01:44:38,905
Oh, and Edge in the drop zone for Bálor!

1869
01:44:40,273 --> 01:44:43,543
[Saxton] Is this how The Judgment Day
secures a victory--

1870
01:44:43,610 --> 01:44:45,812
[Corey] What the--
Get out of the ring, Dominik!

1871
01:44:45,879 --> 01:44:48,148
[Cole] Yeah, but Dominik
has the referee distracted

1872
01:44:48,215 --> 01:44:50,550
and allowed his dad Rey Mysterio…

1873
01:44:52,185 --> 01:44:55,088
to prevent Finn Bálor
from delivering Coup de Grâce!

1874
01:44:55,155 --> 01:44:57,691
-Oh!
-Mysterio sends Bálor to the mat!

1875
01:44:59,559 --> 01:45:01,895
[Cole] Rhea Ripley taking out Dominik.

1876
01:45:02,729 --> 01:45:05,499
Driving Dominik into the barricade.

1877
01:45:06,667 --> 01:45:08,602
[Corey] Dominik only has himself
to blame.

1878
01:45:08,669 --> 01:45:10,570
He stick his nose on their business first.

1879
01:45:10,637 --> 01:45:13,607
[Saxton] It was an emotional response
from Dominik trying to--

1880
01:45:13,674 --> 01:45:15,842
[Cole] Dominik may have saved Edge!

1881
01:45:15,909 --> 01:45:20,514
And Mysterio taking out Dominik and Rhea!

1882
01:45:20,580 --> 01:45:23,417
[Saxton] This has completely broken down.

1883
01:45:23,483 --> 01:45:25,485
[Cole] But again, you get back
to Dominik, guys.

1884
01:45:25,552 --> 01:45:26,820
Edge was done.

1885
01:45:26,887 --> 01:45:28,488
Bálor was going for the Coup de Grâce.

1886
01:45:28,555 --> 01:45:30,223
Dominik distracting the official

1887
01:45:30,290 --> 01:45:34,127
allowed Rey to take Bálor
off the top rope.

1888
01:45:34,194 --> 01:45:36,096
And now it's time for the--
Oh!

1889
01:45:36,163 --> 01:45:38,098
Bálor with a clothesline!

1890
01:45:40,967 --> 01:45:43,103
[Corey] Bálor boots Rey to the outside.

1891
01:45:46,306 --> 01:45:47,307
Now Bálor--

1892
01:45:47,374 --> 01:45:49,943
[Cole] Oh, and Dominik
grabbed the boot of Bálor!

1893
01:45:50,877 --> 01:45:53,580
[Saxton] Dominik do whatever it takes
to ensure this victory

1894
01:45:53,647 --> 01:45:55,048
for Rey and Edge!

1895
01:45:55,115 --> 01:45:57,284
[Cole] And now Mysterio with a 619!

1896
01:45:57,351 --> 01:45:59,953
And a spear by Edge!

1897
01:46:00,921 --> 01:46:02,923
-Cover!
-[crowd] One, two, three!

1898
01:46:02,989 --> 01:46:06,360
[Cole] Thanks to Dominik,
Edge and Rey has picked up the win!

1899
01:46:07,294 --> 01:46:09,096
[announcer] Here are your winners,

1900
01:46:09,162 --> 01:46:15,469
the team of Rey Mysterio and Edge!

1901
01:46:16,103 --> 01:46:18,839
[Saxton] I'm not gonna condone
the interference of Dominik,

1902
01:46:18,905 --> 01:46:21,074
but Dominik again, realizing

1903
01:46:21,141 --> 01:46:22,642
this is the kind of battle you're in.

1904
01:46:22,709 --> 01:46:24,111
You gotta do whatever it takes.

1905
01:46:24,177 --> 01:46:26,713
And in this case, thanks to Dominik,

1906
01:46:26,780 --> 01:46:31,118
Rey Mysterio and Edge are victorious
over The Judgment Day.

1907
01:46:31,184 --> 01:46:33,053
[Corey] Dominik had to take a back seat,

1908
01:46:33,120 --> 01:46:36,490
but it was for the better of the team,
for the family.

1909
01:46:37,157 --> 01:46:39,593
[Cole] Mysterio and Edge
with an impressive win

1910
01:46:39,659 --> 01:46:41,828
over The Judgment Day tonight.

1911
01:46:41,895 --> 01:46:44,798
First, as Rhea Ripley, took out Dominik,

1912
01:46:46,733 --> 01:46:49,136
Rey Mysterio would make Rhea pay.

1913
01:46:52,339 --> 01:46:55,876
And then here Dominik
prevents Bálor from flying.

1914
01:46:56,443 --> 01:46:58,278
Rey would hit a 619,

1915
01:46:58,345 --> 01:47:00,447
and then, boom,

1916
01:47:00,514 --> 01:47:01,648
Edge!

1917
01:47:02,649 --> 01:47:04,985
[crowd] One, two, three!

1918
01:47:05,051 --> 01:47:06,186
[bell dings]

1919
01:47:08,588 --> 01:47:11,691
[Saxton] A huge ovation from the fans
here in Cardiff,

1920
01:47:11,758 --> 01:47:17,798
the joy felt by Rey Mysterio
and Dominik Mysterio.

1921
01:47:18,832 --> 01:47:20,734
Victory party on tap!

1922
01:47:24,237 --> 01:47:26,740
[Cole] What a triumphant victory

1923
01:47:26,807 --> 01:47:30,677
for The Rated-R Superstar Edge
and Rey Mysterio here tonight.

1924
01:47:34,648 --> 01:47:37,717
[Corey] All three of these men
finally able to pluck the thorn

1925
01:47:37,784 --> 01:47:40,420
that is The Judgment Day
from their collective--

1926
01:47:40,487 --> 01:47:42,088
[Cole] Oh, my God!

1927
01:47:46,293 --> 01:47:47,561
[indistinct chatter]

1928
01:47:57,838 --> 01:47:59,840
[Rey speaking Spanish]

1929
01:48:01,842 --> 01:48:03,643
Listen to me.

1930
01:48:03,710 --> 01:48:05,378
Please! Please.

1931
01:48:08,482 --> 01:48:10,050
[Cole] What the hell?

1932
01:48:11,418 --> 01:48:13,453
Damn it, kid, what are you doing?

1933
01:48:13,520 --> 01:48:15,422
[crowd booing]

1934
01:48:28,602 --> 01:48:29,903
It's your father for God sakes.

1935
01:48:32,973 --> 01:48:35,008
[booing continues]

1936
01:49:33,500 --> 01:49:35,568
I-I mean, I don't even know what to say.

1937
01:49:35,635 --> 01:49:39,406
I mean, Rey and Dominik
have been through it.

1938
01:49:39,472 --> 01:49:43,443
I mean, first, the assault on Edge and he
thought the cooler half would take over.

1939
01:49:43,510 --> 01:49:47,347
And then, Dominik lashing out.
Obviously a confused kid.

1940
01:49:48,281 --> 01:49:52,719
Strikes his father, much of the delight
of The Judgment Day.

1941
01:49:54,821 --> 01:49:56,923
[Corey] I can only hope
that's what it is, Michael.

1942
01:49:56,990 --> 01:49:58,792
That it's just temporary confusion

1943
01:49:58,858 --> 01:50:02,329
and that, that Dominik
will come to his senses.

1944
01:50:02,395 --> 01:50:04,397
[crowd cheering]

1945
01:50:28,388 --> 01:50:30,390
[crowd cheering]

1946
01:50:38,965 --> 01:50:41,067
[upbeat music playing]

1947
01:50:57,183 --> 01:51:00,587
[narrator] WWE Shop,
now A Fanatics Experience.

1948
01:51:03,823 --> 01:51:07,193
[Corey] We wanna send a special thanks
to Our Lady Peace for Run.

1949
01:51:07,260 --> 01:51:11,498
The official theme of WWE
Clash at the Castle.

1950
01:51:11,564 --> 01:51:14,367
It's from the album Spiritual Machines II,

1951
01:51:14,434 --> 01:51:17,771
and it's available now on Apple Music
and Spotify.

1952
01:51:21,174 --> 01:51:23,810
[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,
we are proud to announce

1953
01:51:23,877 --> 01:51:27,714

1955
01:51:30,817 --> 01:51:36,589
Sixty-two thousand, two hundred
and ninety-six!

1956
01:51:36,656 --> 01:51:38,658
["Run" playing]

1957
01:51:40,627 --> 01:51:44,631
[Cole] Sixty-two thousand, two hundred
and ninety-six WWE fans here

1958
01:51:44,697 --> 01:51:48,268
in attendance tonight
for the first stadium show

1959
01:51:48,334 --> 01:51:50,770
premium live event in the United Kingdom

1960
01:51:50,837 --> 01:51:53,573
in over 30 years.

1961
01:51:56,676 --> 01:51:58,778
Well, it has been quite the night
already tonight.

1962
01:51:58,845 --> 01:52:01,414
You saw moments ago,
the Mysterio family falling apart,

1963
01:52:01,481 --> 01:52:02,949
quicker than the New York Yankees.

1964
01:52:03,016 --> 01:52:05,285
And you have to wonder if the Mysterios,

1965
01:52:05,351 --> 01:52:07,520
well, if we're going to address this
in what happens

1966
01:52:07,587 --> 01:52:09,189
right after Clash at the Castle.

1967
01:52:09,255 --> 01:52:11,291
Five minutes after we go off the air,

1968
01:52:11,357 --> 01:52:13,727
exclusively on Facebook and YouTube,

1969
01:52:13,793 --> 01:52:16,563
will be the Clash at the Castle
press conference.

1970
01:52:16,629 --> 01:52:19,799
Superstars will be there
to talk about what happened tonight

1971
01:52:19,866 --> 01:52:22,502
in this historic event in Cardiff, Wales.

1972
01:52:24,204 --> 01:52:26,406
Well, ladies and gentlemen,
coming up next,

1973
01:52:26,473 --> 01:52:29,876
one of the most personal matchups
in recent memory.

1974
01:52:29,943 --> 01:52:32,979
The normally laid back bro Riddle

1975
01:52:33,046 --> 01:52:35,648
is a ticking timebomb,

1976
01:52:35,715 --> 01:52:39,319
versus Seth "Freakin'" Rollins.

1977
01:52:42,856 --> 01:52:45,592
[Seth] Who in the hell

1978
01:52:45,658 --> 01:52:48,928
does Riddle think he is?

1979
01:52:51,131 --> 01:52:52,966
[Riddle] So who is Matthew Riddle?

1980
01:52:53,566 --> 01:52:56,369
[crowd chanting] Riddle! Riddle! Riddle!

1981
01:52:56,436 --> 01:52:58,805
[Riddle] I feel the crowd.
They're all broing it up with me.

1982
01:52:58,872 --> 01:53:00,773
Bro! Bro! Bro!

1983
01:53:00,840 --> 01:53:03,777
[man] The Original Bro has arrived.

1984
01:53:03,843 --> 01:53:05,879
[Riddle] And you guys have no idea…

1985
01:53:08,248 --> 01:53:09,983
what I'm capable of.

1986
01:53:10,784 --> 01:53:14,687
And like I said before, you're gonna
have to kill me to stop me!

1987
01:53:16,222 --> 01:53:19,058
[Seth laughing]

1988
01:53:20,360 --> 01:53:23,229
Aw! Well, I'm sorry.

1989
01:53:23,296 --> 01:53:25,932
I don't share air space

1990
01:53:25,999 --> 01:53:29,969
with losers.

1991
01:53:30,036 --> 01:53:34,407
And, Riddle, you are the ultimate loser.

1992
01:53:34,474 --> 01:53:35,675
[laughs]

1993
01:53:35,742 --> 01:53:39,312
I am a visionary.

1994
01:53:40,146 --> 01:53:44,217
I am a revolutionary.

1995
01:53:45,285 --> 01:53:48,021
And if you get in my way,

1996
01:53:48,087 --> 01:53:50,490
I'm going to put you down.

1997
01:53:52,859 --> 01:53:54,727
[echoing] Put you down…

1998
01:53:54,794 --> 01:53:56,930
[Seth laughing]

1999
01:53:58,698 --> 01:54:01,100
[laughs]

2000
01:54:03,603 --> 01:54:05,905
Tonight, my friends,

2001
01:54:05,972 --> 01:54:09,843
is a night of celebration!

2002
01:54:10,410 --> 01:54:13,046
Because we don't have to see

2003
01:54:13,112 --> 01:54:15,481
and we don't have to hear

2004
01:54:15,548 --> 01:54:18,685
that idiot Riddle.

2005
01:54:18,751 --> 01:54:20,954
[laughing]

2006
01:54:22,922 --> 01:54:24,490
[Riddle's theme song plays]

2007
01:54:24,557 --> 01:54:26,993
[crowd cheering]

2008
01:54:27,961 --> 01:54:29,128
[man 1] Here comes Riddle!

2009
01:54:29,195 --> 01:54:31,531
[man 2] The Visionary
couldn't see this future.

2010
01:54:31,598 --> 01:54:33,666
-Look at the stomp!
-Not this time.

2011
01:54:34,934 --> 01:54:36,870
[Riddle] I might be down,

2012
01:54:36,936 --> 01:54:38,771
but I'm definitely not out.

2013
01:54:38,838 --> 01:54:40,440
-Oh!
-Oh, God!

2014
01:54:40,506 --> 01:54:44,110
And like I said before, you're gonna
have to kill me to stop me, bro.

2015
01:54:44,177 --> 01:54:48,314
[man 1] The Original Bro chasing off
Seth "Freakin'" Rollins.

2016
01:54:48,381 --> 01:54:52,018
A shocking return to Monday Night RAW
for Riddle!

2017
01:54:53,286 --> 01:54:56,856
[Seth] I have been targeting Riddle.
He's been a thorn in my side.

2018
01:54:56,923 --> 01:54:59,893
I'm at the very tip-top of the food chain

2019
01:54:59,959 --> 01:55:01,461
and Riddle's on the come-up.

2020
01:55:01,527 --> 01:55:04,397
So this match was bound to happen,
but there's only one problem.

2021
01:55:04,464 --> 01:55:06,766
I'm Seth "Freakin'" Rollins, baby.

2022
01:55:06,833 --> 01:55:08,801
I'm gonna steal the show

2023
01:55:09,736 --> 01:55:13,506
and show him
who the man around here really is.

2024
01:55:13,573 --> 01:55:14,574
Ooh.

2025
01:55:14,641 --> 01:55:16,843
Well, Seth, I'm gonna prove to you

2026
01:55:16,910 --> 01:55:19,913
that there's only one man
in your marriage.

2027
01:55:19,979 --> 01:55:21,915
And that's Becky, bro.

2028
01:55:25,318 --> 01:55:26,686
[man] And clear.

2029
01:55:27,987 --> 01:55:29,389
-We good?
-Yeah.

2030
01:55:29,455 --> 01:55:30,690
Okay, good.

2031
01:55:30,757 --> 01:55:32,592
Yo, Riddle, you still there?

2032
01:55:32,659 --> 01:55:34,027
Yeah, I'm still here.

2033
01:55:34,093 --> 01:55:36,429
You talk about my family,
I'm gonna talk about your family.

2034
01:55:36,496 --> 01:55:39,565
But wait, you ain't got one, 'cause
your wife divorced you and took your kids,

2035
01:55:39,632 --> 01:55:41,734
and they don't wanna
see your bitch-ass anymore, huh?

2036
01:55:41,801 --> 01:55:43,536
-What did you just say?
-Yeah, you heard me.

2037
01:55:43,603 --> 01:55:45,071
-Where are you?
-You heard me, bitch.

2038
01:55:45,138 --> 01:55:46,706
-Where are you?
-I'm here. Come find me.

2039
01:55:46,773 --> 01:55:48,675
Dude, you don't get--
I'm not gonna beat you up,

2040
01:55:48,741 --> 01:55:51,344
I'm gonna [bleep] you up, bro.
Where the [bleep] are you?

2041
01:55:51,411 --> 01:55:52,879
-Where are you?
-All right, come on.

2042
01:55:52,946 --> 01:55:54,314
-Where is he?
-Come find me, bitch.

2043
01:55:54,380 --> 01:55:57,550
Where are you? Dude, you don't get--
I'm gonna smash your face!

2044
01:55:57,617 --> 01:55:59,252
-Okay, cool.
-Yeah. Yeah.

2045
01:55:59,319 --> 01:56:02,355
Keep playing games, bro!
Keep playing games!

2046
01:56:02,422 --> 01:56:03,956
I'm gonna [bleep] you up.

2047
01:56:04,023 --> 01:56:06,025
[breathing heavily]

2048
01:56:14,133 --> 01:56:15,635
Get this off of me.

2049
01:56:20,340 --> 01:56:22,342
[Riddle's theme song playing]

2050
01:56:41,861 --> 01:56:42,895
[bell dings]

2051
01:56:42,962 --> 01:56:45,898
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

2052
01:56:45,965 --> 01:56:48,901
Introducing first, from Las Vegas, Nevada,

2053
01:56:48,968 --> 01:56:55,808
weighing in at 216 pounds, Matt Riddle!

2054
01:56:55,875 --> 01:56:58,578
[Corey] Apparently when Riddle heard
we were coming to Wales,

2055
01:56:58,644 --> 01:57:00,680
he thought
we were going to Bikini Bottom.

2056
01:57:01,247 --> 01:57:04,283
[Cole] Nonetheless, for Riddle,
this started out with,

2057
01:57:04,350 --> 01:57:06,953
you know, defending the likes
of his long-time buddy,

2058
01:57:07,019 --> 01:57:09,155
the man who changed his career,
Randy Orton.

2059
01:57:09,222 --> 01:57:11,157
Cody Rhodes, who came back
and went through…

2060
01:57:11,224 --> 01:57:12,458
[fire crackers explode]

2061
01:57:12,525 --> 01:57:14,994
…went through everything
with Seth Rollins.

2062
01:57:15,061 --> 01:57:16,896
But now, after the interview
that you conducted

2063
01:57:16,963 --> 01:57:18,197
this past Monday night, Corey,

2064
01:57:18,264 --> 01:57:21,067
things have got more personal
than anything I've ever seen here in WWE.

2065
01:57:21,134 --> 01:57:22,635
[Corey] I completely agree with you.

2066
01:57:22,702 --> 01:57:25,805
The real fireworks didn't happen
until after I left the room.

2067
01:57:25,872 --> 01:57:29,375
It's an understatement to say

2068
01:57:29,442 --> 01:57:33,112
that Matt Riddle and Seth Rollins
detest one another.

2069
01:57:51,097 --> 01:57:55,034
[Saxton] We have seen for weeks officials
struggling to stabilize the contempt

2070
01:57:55,101 --> 01:57:57,970
that Riddle and Seth Rollins
have for each other.

2071
01:57:58,037 --> 01:57:59,739
Yeah, tonight, the handcuffs are off.

2072
01:57:59,806 --> 01:58:02,008
[Cole] This is a massive opportunity
for Riddle

2073
01:58:02,075 --> 01:58:04,377
to strike it out solo,
make a name for himself,

2074
01:58:04,444 --> 01:58:06,112
but it will not be easy.

2075
01:58:08,548 --> 01:58:10,550
[crowd cheering]

2076
01:58:13,953 --> 01:58:15,955
[Seth Rollins' theme song playing]

2077
01:58:23,463 --> 01:58:26,466
[announcer] And his opponent,
from Davenport, Iowa,

2078
01:58:26,532 --> 01:58:29,235
weighing in at 217 pounds,

2079
01:58:29,302 --> 01:58:33,473
Seth "Frickin'" Rollins!

2080
01:58:33,539 --> 01:58:35,842
[Cole] You know, our ring announcer,
Samantha Irvin,

2081
01:58:35,908 --> 01:58:38,010
used to perform at Cirque du Soleil.

2082
01:58:38,077 --> 01:58:41,314
I think Seth Rollins
stole an outfit from her closet.

2083
01:58:42,482 --> 01:58:44,717
Straight out of the Rocket Man collection.

2084
01:58:45,718 --> 01:58:47,720
Nonetheless, Seth Rollins, guys,

2085
01:58:47,787 --> 01:58:50,022
this match was supposed to happen
at SummerSlam, right?

2086
01:58:50,089 --> 01:58:52,992
But Riddle was not medically cleared
after an attack by Rollins.

2087
01:58:53,059 --> 01:58:56,596
Corey, you've known Seth Rollins
probably longer than anyone in WWE.

2088
01:58:56,662 --> 01:58:58,264
Why this?

2089
01:58:58,331 --> 01:59:01,367
Why this attack on Riddle
week after week after week?

2090
01:59:01,434 --> 01:59:02,502
What's his issue?

2091
01:59:02,568 --> 01:59:07,273
[Corey] Once upon a time, we referred
to Seth Rollins as "The Architect,"

2092
01:59:07,340 --> 01:59:10,977
because Rollins
is a master manipulator.

2093
01:59:11,043 --> 01:59:13,112
And when I spoke to Seth
earlier in the day,

2094
01:59:13,179 --> 01:59:15,915
asked him for some insight
into tonight's match,

2095
01:59:15,982 --> 01:59:18,918
he said, "Graves,
the work is already done.

2096
01:59:18,985 --> 01:59:20,920
"I've already cut the string.

2097
01:59:20,987 --> 01:59:24,123
"Tonight, we watch Riddle unravel."

2098
01:59:25,157 --> 01:59:27,293
It is all by design.

2099
01:59:27,360 --> 01:59:29,428
Mind games on another level.

2100
01:59:29,495 --> 01:59:32,331
[Saxton] You know, it's really interesting
how this thing has developed,

2101
01:59:32,398 --> 01:59:35,601
because Seth actually provided
some more insight earlier this week,

2102
01:59:35,668 --> 01:59:39,772
basically talking about from day one
that Riddle entered WWE,

2103
01:59:39,839 --> 01:59:42,875
how turned off he was
by how Riddle carried himself,

2104
01:59:42,942 --> 01:59:44,243
that the words he would say,

2105
01:59:44,310 --> 01:59:47,179
so it seemed like only a matter of time
that this right here,

2106
01:59:47,246 --> 01:59:51,217
this issue between
Rollins and Riddle would explode.

2107
01:59:51,284 --> 01:59:54,554
[Corey] Absolutely right. That issue
wasn't created out of thin air, Byron.

2108
01:59:54,620 --> 01:59:56,188
That issue was created from truth.

2109
01:59:56,255 --> 01:59:58,591
[Cole] But I also want to ask you
about Rollins,

2110
01:59:58,658 --> 02:00:00,192
and not just the Riddle situation,

2111
02:00:00,259 --> 02:00:04,363
but this complete change in him,
the character change, the way he looks,

2112
02:00:04,430 --> 02:00:07,934
the way he approaches his match
in the ring, this flamboyant style.

2113
02:00:08,000 --> 02:00:09,835
What has got into Seth Rollins?

2114
02:00:09,902 --> 02:00:13,005
[Corey] Rollins finally realized
that he truly has become

2115
02:00:13,072 --> 02:00:15,208
who he's always claimed to be,

2116
02:00:15,274 --> 02:00:19,111
the best sports entertainer
in the world today.

2117
02:00:21,280 --> 02:00:25,551
Riddle… he is wound tight.

2118
02:00:26,319 --> 02:00:29,355
That's exactly how Seth Rollins wants it.

2119
02:00:29,422 --> 02:00:32,124
[crowd vocalizing]

2120
02:00:35,228 --> 02:00:37,463
-[referee] Ring the bell!
-[bell dings]

2121
02:00:37,530 --> 02:00:40,399
And here we go, and Riddle and Rollins
going right after one another.

2122
02:00:40,466 --> 02:00:43,069
matchup is underway
at Clash at the Castle.

2123
02:00:43,869 --> 02:00:46,872
Seth Rollins, who to this day,
will not stop talking about the fact

2124
02:00:46,939 --> 02:00:50,109
that he wants an opportunity
at the Undisputed Championship.

2125
02:00:50,176 --> 02:00:52,578
Riddle will try to prevent him
from ever getting there.

2126
02:00:52,645 --> 02:00:55,548
[Saxton] This is what happens
when you ignite the fury of Matt Riddle.

2127
02:00:55,615 --> 02:00:56,782
He is bringing it to Rollins.

2128
02:00:56,849 --> 02:00:58,851
[Cole] Well, Rollins bringing it
to Riddle as well.

2129
02:00:58,918 --> 02:01:01,921
[Corey] Rollins has got to be careful.
Rollins has to be cognizant.

2130
02:01:01,988 --> 02:01:05,124
Even he is not going
to outstrike Matt Riddle.

2131
02:01:05,191 --> 02:01:07,827
[Cole] Riddle's got to be careful too.
He doesn't get disqualified.

2132
02:01:07,893 --> 02:01:10,062
He's been waiting for this match
for a long, long time.

2133
02:01:10,129 --> 02:01:12,498
-[Corey] Absolutely right.
-[Cole] Uh-oh, and wait a minute.

2134
02:01:12,565 --> 02:01:15,534
He got right in the face
of the official Rod Zapata.

2135
02:01:16,502 --> 02:01:20,706
He touched him, and Zapata obviously going
to let, give some leeway in this match,

2136
02:01:20,773 --> 02:01:23,509
but that distraction has allowed Rollins
to attack outside,

2137
02:01:23,576 --> 02:01:24,944
but Riddle turns things around.

2138
02:01:25,011 --> 02:01:28,147
[Corey] And this is what Seth wants.
Seth wants to let Riddle implode.

2139
02:01:28,214 --> 02:01:30,549
Seth knows he's in Matt Riddle's mind.

2140
02:01:30,616 --> 02:01:32,718
He's under Matt Riddle's skin.

2141
02:01:32,785 --> 02:01:34,954
-Now Seth wants to finish the job!
-[Cole] Oh!

2142
02:01:35,021 --> 02:01:38,324
But Riddle not going to go down
without the fight of Rollins' life.

2143
02:01:38,391 --> 02:01:41,827
[Cole] And Riddle with a couple
of gutwrenches now to Seth Rollins,

2144
02:01:42,962 --> 02:01:44,830
bringing Rollins around the ring.

2145
02:01:44,897 --> 02:01:47,299
Riddle is a very dangerous man.

2146
02:01:47,366 --> 02:01:51,070
You attack a man's family, you're going
to get what you've got coming to you,

2147
02:01:51,137 --> 02:01:54,240
but Rollins is wily as they come,
as you saw there.

2148
02:01:54,307 --> 02:01:56,409
[Saxton] Rollins not just attacking
Riddle's family,

2149
02:01:56,475 --> 02:01:59,312
attacking the career of Riddle,
putting that career in jeopardy.

2150
02:01:59,378 --> 02:02:01,347
[Corey] Listen, Rollins is betting
on the fact

2151
02:02:01,414 --> 02:02:03,816
that Riddle's coming
into this match with tunnel vision,

2152
02:02:03,883 --> 02:02:05,951
that Riddle is blind with anger,

2153
02:02:06,018 --> 02:02:08,387
and Seth will use that
against Matt Riddle.

2154
02:02:08,454 --> 02:02:11,390
-[Cole] Oh, and a knee by Riddle.
-[Corey] Given the opportunity.

2155
02:02:11,457 --> 02:02:15,227
[Cole] Oh, and Riddle connecting
with a set timeout of Rollins, and again.

2156
02:02:15,928 --> 02:02:18,831
Meanwhile, into the cover by Riddle,
hook of the leg, shoulders down,

2157
02:02:18,898 --> 02:02:20,032
and a kick-out.

2158
02:02:20,099 --> 02:02:23,235
Sixty-two thousand,
two hundred ninety-six WWE fans

2159
02:02:23,302 --> 02:02:27,406
were still serenading us
with Seth Rollins' entrance theme.

2160
02:02:28,541 --> 02:02:31,177
A massive crowd here tonight in Cardiff.

2161
02:02:31,243 --> 02:02:33,713
It has been an incredible event,
and still to come,

2162
02:02:33,779 --> 02:02:38,017
we've got the Undisputed Championship
between Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre.

2163
02:02:38,084 --> 02:02:41,187
[Corey] A match that both of these
competitors will be watching very closely.

2164
02:02:41,253 --> 02:02:43,189
We know Rollins has been extremely vocal

2165
02:02:43,255 --> 02:02:45,257
about wanting an opportunity
at that championship.

2166
02:02:45,324 --> 02:02:47,493
Riddle could potentially earn one tonight.

2167
02:02:47,560 --> 02:02:51,430
[Cole] Rollins had a match with Roman
earlier this year, Riddle as well.

2168
02:02:51,497 --> 02:02:54,934
And here's Riddle now,
perhaps trying to get Seth in a triangle

2169
02:02:55,000 --> 02:02:58,337
or some sort of submission hold
to make Rollins tap.

2170
02:02:58,404 --> 02:03:01,340
[Corey] Riddle needs to pass
Rollins' shoulder underneath Seth's chin

2171
02:03:01,407 --> 02:03:03,309
to really complete
the triangle submission,

2172
02:03:03,375 --> 02:03:05,177
and great power by the visionary.

2173
02:03:05,244 --> 02:03:07,480
[Cole] And dumping low,
and oh, wait a minute,

2174
02:03:07,546 --> 02:03:10,383
Riddle hung on,
Rollins hit the floor first!

2175
02:03:11,450 --> 02:03:13,853
[Saxton] Riddle keeping his eyes locked
on Seth Rollins,

2176
02:03:13,919 --> 02:03:16,288
looking to attack from the apron.

2177
02:03:16,355 --> 02:03:18,758
[Cole] And Riddle caught by Rollins,

2178
02:03:18,824 --> 02:03:21,861
and now Seth with Riddle up top,

2179
02:03:21,927 --> 02:03:24,597
driving him into the barricade.

2180
02:03:24,663 --> 02:03:27,333
[Corey] That was nasty!
I don't think Riddle's getting up.

2181
02:03:27,400 --> 02:03:31,237
[Cole] A barricade bomb,
a version of Seth's bucklebomb.

2182
02:03:31,303 --> 02:03:32,304
[Corey] Look at this.

2183
02:03:32,371 --> 02:03:35,508
Watch the way Riddle's body
contorts around the barricade.

2184
02:03:35,574 --> 02:03:36,609
[all exclaim]

2185
02:03:36,675 --> 02:03:38,511
It's like a whiplash effect.

2186
02:03:38,577 --> 02:03:41,213
And this is what Rollins needed,
a moment to re-strategize.

2187
02:03:41,280 --> 02:03:44,250
[Cole] Exactly, and weather
the early emotional storm of Riddle.

2188
02:03:44,316 --> 02:03:46,452
Riddle came firing out of the blocks,

2189
02:03:46,519 --> 02:03:49,755
but Seth Rollins has successfully
settled things down.

2190
02:03:49,822 --> 02:03:51,023
[Corey] It's an old cliche,

2191
02:03:51,090 --> 02:03:53,292
but this is truly the case
of Riddle playing checkers

2192
02:03:53,359 --> 02:03:54,794
while Rollins is playing chess.

2193
02:03:54,860 --> 02:03:56,195
That's how Rollins competes.

2194
02:03:56,262 --> 02:03:59,064
[Cole] Meanwhile, Seth Rollins
gonna launch himself into Riddle,

2195
02:03:59,131 --> 02:04:01,133
who bounces up
over our announce table.

2196
02:04:02,635 --> 02:04:05,104
[Saxton] Riddle in a bad, bad way,

2197
02:04:05,171 --> 02:04:08,374
and Rollins all too happy to continue
pouring on the punishment.

2198
02:04:08,441 --> 02:04:11,143
Rollins believes
he is the gatekeeper of our industry,

2199
02:04:11,210 --> 02:04:14,146
believes Riddle
is nowhere in his league.

2200
02:04:14,213 --> 02:04:18,050
[Corey] Well, and Riddle, I think,
has a healthy professional respect

2201
02:04:18,117 --> 02:04:19,618
for what Rollins has accomplished.

2202
02:04:19,685 --> 02:04:22,021
Riddle wants the spot
that Seth occupies right now.

2203
02:04:22,087 --> 02:04:25,458
Beyond that, Riddle can't stand
the breath that Seth Rollins breathes.

2204
02:04:25,524 --> 02:04:26,892
[Cole] There's no doubt, Corey.

2205
02:04:26,959 --> 02:04:30,062
Seth Rollins has dominated this industry
for a decade, right?

2206
02:04:30,129 --> 02:04:33,399
Riddle's still trying to make
a name for himself here in WWE.

2207
02:04:33,465 --> 02:04:36,602
Yeah, sure, he's won a United States
Championship and Tag Team title,

2208
02:04:36,669 --> 02:04:38,971
but the sky's still the limit
for Matt Riddle.

2209
02:04:39,038 --> 02:04:42,274
Rollins just trying to establish
dominance to make it continue,

2210
02:04:42,341 --> 02:04:45,244
so maybe one day he does get that shot
at the Undisputed Championship.

2211
02:04:45,311 --> 02:04:47,513
[Corey] Rollins is a guy
who would rather not wake up

2212
02:04:47,580 --> 02:04:50,683
in the morning than allow someone else
to make their name at his expense.

2213
02:04:50,749 --> 02:04:53,786
-[Saxton] Oh!
-[Cole] Rollins takes down Riddle.

2214
02:04:53,853 --> 02:04:56,255
Seth into the cover.
Forearm right in the face.

2215
02:04:56,322 --> 02:04:58,557
Forces Riddle to kick out.

2216
02:04:59,592 --> 02:05:02,461
Rollins immediately
dropping bombs on Riddle.

2217
02:05:03,696 --> 02:05:05,331
Allowing no reprieve.

2218
02:05:06,799 --> 02:05:08,801
[indistinct chatter]

2219
02:05:16,041 --> 02:05:18,077
Official Rod Zapata
already in a testy mood.

2220
02:05:18,143 --> 02:05:19,745
We saw Riddle get to his face earlier.

2221
02:05:19,812 --> 02:05:21,313
Now he's dealing with Seth Rollins.

2222
02:05:21,380 --> 02:05:24,750
[Cole] Oh, he said he doesn't want
to disqualify one of them, but he will.

2223
02:05:24,817 --> 02:05:29,088
He has to understand how high the tensions
are between these two superstars.

2224
02:05:29,154 --> 02:05:31,624
Oh, goodness! Riddle firing back.

2225
02:05:31,690 --> 02:05:33,192
Seth took a little too much time,

2226
02:05:33,259 --> 02:05:35,561
and Riddle able to come out
of this wildly.

2227
02:05:35,628 --> 02:05:38,030
Rollins now roll up. Shoulders are down.
Does Seth have him?

2228
02:05:38,097 --> 02:05:39,131
No, kick at two.

2229
02:05:39,198 --> 02:05:41,300
-Rollins kick him in the face!
-[Saxton] Oh, baby!

2230
02:05:41,367 --> 02:05:43,502
[Cole] Riddle down and out.
Cover again by Rollins.

2231
02:05:43,569 --> 02:05:46,138
And a great cover by Rollins.
It forced him to kick out.

2232
02:05:46,205 --> 02:05:49,408
The way he wrapped the inside arm and leg
didn't allow Riddle to go to the ropes.

2233
02:05:49,475 --> 02:05:51,143
Falcon Arrow now by Rollins.

2234
02:05:51,210 --> 02:05:52,912
Cover, hook to the leg again.

2235
02:05:52,978 --> 02:05:54,413
Riddle at two and a half.

2236
02:05:55,180 --> 02:05:56,649
[Corey] There's no doubt about it.

2237
02:05:56,715 --> 02:06:00,819
Seth Rollins did his homework
before this matchup, as he always does,

2238
02:06:00,886 --> 02:06:05,558
and Seth Rollins is well aware
of the gas tank possessed by Matt Riddle.

2239
02:06:05,624 --> 02:06:07,393
Riddle can go all night.

2240
02:06:07,459 --> 02:06:10,629
He will continue to fight
until he simply can't fight anymore.

2241
02:06:10,696 --> 02:06:13,432
Rollins needs to figure out
a way to exhaust Riddle.

2242
02:06:15,267 --> 02:06:18,304
[Cole] A changing landscape in WWE.

2243
02:06:18,370 --> 02:06:20,239
You can feel it here tonight

2244
02:06:21,373 --> 02:06:24,910
in Principality Stadium, Cardiff, Wales.

2245
02:06:24,977 --> 02:06:30,149
Sixty-two thousand plus continue
to serenade us with Rollins' music.

2246
02:06:31,050 --> 02:06:33,786
And Riddle with a boot
to the face and an elbow

2247
02:06:33,852 --> 02:06:36,188
as he tries to fight back
into this match.

2248
02:06:36,255 --> 02:06:39,892
Riddle now top rope,
and Rollins makes him pay.

2249
02:06:42,928 --> 02:06:44,730
Riddle gingerly tried
to ascend to the top,

2250
02:06:44,797 --> 02:06:46,565
but Rollins was just a little bit quicker,

2251
02:06:46,632 --> 02:06:49,668
and now Rollins
with some plans of his own.

2252
02:06:49,735 --> 02:06:50,803
[Riddle groans]

2253
02:06:55,975 --> 02:06:59,078
[Corey] Rollins could be thinking
about an inverted superplex.

2254
02:06:59,144 --> 02:07:01,547
If this lands, it could be game over.

2255
02:07:02,114 --> 02:07:04,717
Oh. Riddle able to fight out
of harm's way for the moment.

2256
02:07:04,783 --> 02:07:07,720
[Cole] Yeah, and it causes Rollins
to lose his balance.

2257
02:07:08,787 --> 02:07:10,623
And Riddle now back to the top rope.

2258
02:07:11,523 --> 02:07:14,393
Stepping up to the apron.
Oh, and a kick to the face!

2259
02:07:14,460 --> 02:07:16,261
[Corey] Riddle right between the eyes.

2260
02:07:16,328 --> 02:07:17,896
[Cole] I mentioned the game of chess.

2261
02:07:17,963 --> 02:07:20,299
Rollins playing it magnificently here.

2262
02:07:25,237 --> 02:07:26,872
[Corey] Riddle trying to struggle!

2263
02:07:26,939 --> 02:07:29,675
-[Cole] Goodness, right to the midsection!
-[Corey] Checkmate!

2264
02:07:29,742 --> 02:07:34,013
[Cole] Cover Rollins, hooks the leg
on Riddle, forces Riddle to kick,

2265
02:07:34,079 --> 02:07:36,915
but driving the breath
out of the lungs of Riddle,

2266
02:07:36,982 --> 02:07:38,851
but just stopped by Rollins.

2267
02:07:39,585 --> 02:07:42,521
[Corey] Look at the height achieved
by Seth "Freakin'" Rollins

2268
02:07:42,588 --> 02:07:45,824
before both boots stomping right
into the sternum

2269
02:07:45,891 --> 02:07:49,328
of The Original Bro,
nearly ending Riddle's night.

2270
02:07:49,995 --> 02:07:52,564
[Saxton] Yeah, Riddle can feel
the impact of that maneuver

2271
02:07:52,631 --> 02:07:54,299
the longer this match goes on.

2272
02:07:55,100 --> 02:07:58,637
[Cole] Riddle continuing to be punished
by Seth Rollins here.

2273
02:08:01,306 --> 02:08:04,209
Did you see a bit of frustration
on the face of Rollins moments ago?

2274
02:08:05,044 --> 02:08:06,845
[Saxton] I don't think we did,
but Riddle--

2275
02:08:06,912 --> 02:08:09,581
Rollins done a great job
of using that frustration

2276
02:08:09,648 --> 02:08:12,284
to become even more aggressive
with Riddle.

2277
02:08:12,351 --> 02:08:14,853
[Corey] Rollins may be growing
mildly frustrated,

2278
02:08:14,920 --> 02:08:16,889
but Seth knows
what he's dealing with tonight.

2279
02:08:16,955 --> 02:08:19,224
Seth Rollins knows
this was not gonna be an easy night.

2280
02:08:19,291 --> 02:08:21,293
He's gonna be in for a hell of a fight,

2281
02:08:21,360 --> 02:08:23,829
and Riddle looking
to make something happen,

2282
02:08:23,896 --> 02:08:25,764
perched on the middle turnbuckle.

2283
02:08:27,466 --> 02:08:30,169
-[Saxton] [indistinct]
-[Corey] Oh, no.

2284
02:08:30,235 --> 02:08:32,337
[Corey] On the top, superplex!

2285
02:08:32,404 --> 02:08:34,106
[Cole] Way up top, superplex!

2286
02:08:34,173 --> 02:08:35,574
Seth rolls through!

2287
02:08:35,641 --> 02:08:37,843
[Saxton] And Riddle releases Rollins!

2288
02:08:37,910 --> 02:08:39,645
Fisherman Buster from Riddle!

2289
02:08:39,712 --> 02:08:43,082
[Cole] Incredible!
How did Riddle do that to Rollins?

2290
02:08:43,982 --> 02:08:47,719
Usually, Rollins comes off that superplex
and turns it into a Falcon's Arrow,

2291
02:08:47,786 --> 02:08:50,656
but tonight, Riddle able to counter
into a Fisherman's Buster.

2292
02:08:50,723 --> 02:08:52,825
[Corey] Seems to me
that Riddle's not the only one

2293
02:08:52,891 --> 02:08:54,893
who's studied up before this matchup.

2294
02:08:55,694 --> 02:08:57,963
Take a look at this,
Rollins with the superplex.

2295
02:08:58,030 --> 02:08:59,865
Looking to roll through the Falcon Arrow,

2296
02:08:59,932 --> 02:09:03,435
but Riddle puts Seth's leg
before driving him down

2297
02:09:03,502 --> 02:09:05,904
with a Fisherman Buster
in the center of the ring.

2298
02:09:06,705 --> 02:09:08,941
And Rollins slow to his feet,
but still the first one up.

2299
02:09:10,008 --> 02:09:12,811
[Cole] Riddle, though,
unloading on Rollins.

2300
02:09:12,878 --> 02:09:15,581
[Corey] This is the billboard example
of the incredible gas take

2301
02:09:15,647 --> 02:09:18,317
we always talk about
when it comes to Riddle.

2302
02:09:18,383 --> 02:09:20,986
[Cole] That flash knee by Riddle
caught Rollins in the face.

2303
02:09:22,054 --> 02:09:24,323
[Saxton] You think he's done,
you think he's on empty,

2304
02:09:24,389 --> 02:09:26,692
and then Riddle does this. Oh!

2305
02:09:28,293 --> 02:09:29,461
[Cole] Seth blocks.

2306
02:09:31,797 --> 02:09:34,533
Rollercoaster ride
for both these superstars!

2307
02:09:34,600 --> 02:09:36,201
Great throw by Riddle!

2308
02:09:37,002 --> 02:09:40,205
And the veteran Rollins
rolls under the bottom rope

2309
02:09:40,272 --> 02:09:42,775
to try to get out of harm's way,
but maybe not.

2310
02:09:44,143 --> 02:09:46,345
-Riddle with the kick!
-[Corey] Did you hear that?

2311
02:09:47,346 --> 02:09:50,082
[Saxton] No rest for the weary
on the outside, Riddle.

2312
02:09:50,916 --> 02:09:54,286
[Cole] Oh, my goodness!
A Floating Bro up the second rope?

2313
02:09:55,120 --> 02:09:58,423
[Saxton] Whatever it takes right now
if you are Matt Riddle.

2314
02:10:02,895 --> 02:10:06,231
[Cole] And now Rollins is the one trying
to play defense, but maybe not.

2315
02:10:06,298 --> 02:10:07,699
He's got Riddle hooked.

2316
02:10:07,766 --> 02:10:11,970
Rollins looking for a pedigree,
but Riddle able to counter!

2317
02:10:12,037 --> 02:10:14,072
Oh! Into the Bro To Sleep!

2318
02:10:16,608 --> 02:10:18,210
And Rollins!

2319
02:10:19,678 --> 02:10:21,413
Oh, and a knee!

2320
02:10:21,480 --> 02:10:24,016
Cover by Riddle for the win!

2321
02:10:24,082 --> 02:10:26,051
Rollins kicks at two.

2322
02:10:26,118 --> 02:10:27,252
[Corey] Wow.

2323
02:10:29,288 --> 02:10:30,889
Wow, wow, wow.

2324
02:10:30,956 --> 02:10:32,224
Here's the action earlier on.

2325
02:10:32,291 --> 02:10:34,493
Rollins was thinking
about a rolling elbow.

2326
02:10:34,560 --> 02:10:36,895
Riddle a step ahead with a T-bone,

2327
02:10:36,962 --> 02:10:42,100
and then a Floating Bro to the outside
takes down the visionary.

2328
02:10:42,167 --> 02:10:44,770
The playing field is level once again.

2329
02:10:47,706 --> 02:10:51,643
[Cole] He's suffering a tremendous
amount of punishment here.

2330
02:10:53,579 --> 02:10:57,082
And Bro To Sleep
almost cost Rollins as well.

2331
02:10:58,750 --> 02:11:01,853
[Saxton] Incredible string of offensive
maneuvers delivered by Riddle,

2332
02:11:01,920 --> 02:11:05,457
but we're seeing the resiliency
of Seth Rollins on display

2333
02:11:05,524 --> 02:11:07,025
as much as we've seen it from Riddle.

2334
02:11:07,092 --> 02:11:09,628
[Cole] And Riddle up top now.
Rollins in the drop zone.

2335
02:11:09,695 --> 02:11:12,231
Matt Riddle may have Rollins
where he wants him.

2336
02:11:12,297 --> 02:11:15,067
Floating bro, but the knees
are up to the spine!

2337
02:11:15,934 --> 02:11:19,238
[Corey] Riddle took a hair too long
making the climb, and here he comes!

2338
02:11:19,304 --> 02:11:21,273
[Cole] Went for the stop.
Riddle sidestepped.

2339
02:11:21,874 --> 02:11:23,542
Standing switch by Rollins.

2340
02:11:23,609 --> 02:11:25,210
[Corey] Riddle lands on his feet.

2341
02:11:25,277 --> 02:11:27,312
[Cole] Riddle! Caught it!

2342
02:11:27,379 --> 02:11:29,648
-[Corey] Triangle!
-[Cole] Triangle in!

2343
02:11:29,715 --> 02:11:32,150
Will Rollins tap to the triangle?

2344
02:11:32,217 --> 02:11:33,919
Is Rollins gonna tap?

2345
02:11:33,986 --> 02:11:35,721
Will Riddle put Rollins away?

2346
02:11:36,288 --> 02:11:38,957
[Corey] The positioning is perfect
in the middle of the rings.

2347
02:11:39,024 --> 02:11:40,859
Rollins desperately needs to escape.

2348
02:11:42,594 --> 02:11:44,963
[Cole] Riddle's shoulders are down.
He was able to get off--

2349
02:11:45,030 --> 02:11:46,832
[Corey] And Riddle hooking Rollins' ankle,

2350
02:11:46,898 --> 02:11:49,735
preventing Seth
from lifting Matt off the mat.

2351
02:11:49,801 --> 02:11:52,004
[Cole] There's nowhere to go.
Rollins may be fading.

2352
02:11:52,070 --> 02:11:54,439
Riddle's got it in.
Seth Rollins is fading.

2353
02:11:54,506 --> 02:11:56,008
Riddle may win this match!

2354
02:11:56,074 --> 02:11:57,643
Rollins may be out!

2355
02:12:01,580 --> 02:12:04,983
Rollins with one last gasp effort,
kicking Riddle in the face.

2356
02:12:05,050 --> 02:12:08,420
[Corey] Desperate stops create separation.

2357
02:12:08,487 --> 02:12:10,322
[Cole] Matt looking-- Oh, goodness!

2358
02:12:10,389 --> 02:12:12,491
-Bro Derek!
-[Saxton] That's the Bro Derek!

2359
02:12:12,557 --> 02:12:14,559
[Cole] That is Riddle's finishing move!

2360
02:12:14,626 --> 02:12:15,861
Rollins cover!

2361
02:12:15,928 --> 02:12:17,863
Riddle! Did he get the shoulder up?
He did!

2362
02:12:17,929 --> 02:12:19,298
Riddle got the shoulder up in two!

2363
02:12:19,364 --> 02:12:21,066
[Saxton] What a story
that would have been.

2364
02:12:21,133 --> 02:12:24,269
Seth Rollins defeating Riddle
with his very own maneuver.

2365
02:12:25,070 --> 02:12:27,539
[Cole] Riddle uses this
to take out his opponents.

2366
02:12:27,606 --> 02:12:29,675
It's called the Bro Derek.

2367
02:12:29,741 --> 02:12:33,078
But again, the master manipulator,
Seth Rollins,

2368
02:12:33,145 --> 02:12:35,580
trying to beat Riddle in his own game.

2369
02:12:35,647 --> 02:12:40,285
[Corey] There you see the frustration wash
over the face of Seth "Freakin'" Rollins.

2370
02:12:40,352 --> 02:12:43,088
[crowd shouting]

2371
02:12:43,155 --> 02:12:44,323
[Cole] What a night.

2372
02:12:44,389 --> 02:12:46,224
What a match.

2373
02:12:46,291 --> 02:12:48,026
What a moment in history

2374
02:12:48,093 --> 02:12:50,295
here tonight in Clash at the Castle.

2375
02:13:00,472 --> 02:13:02,674
[Saxton] Both of these men are spent.

2376
02:13:07,412 --> 02:13:12,884
What kind of thoughts are flowing through
the mind of Seth Rollins at this moment?

2377
02:13:14,086 --> 02:13:16,254
[Corey] Rollins could be thinking
Phoenix Splash.

2378
02:13:16,321 --> 02:13:18,123
We've seen him utilize it in the past.

2379
02:13:18,190 --> 02:13:20,025
If it lands, it is over.

2380
02:13:20,092 --> 02:13:21,460
Good night, Riddle.

2381
02:13:22,527 --> 02:13:25,564
[Cole] Now, wait a minute.
Rollins able to roll through.

2382
02:13:25,630 --> 02:13:29,234
Riddle back to his feet.
Catches Rollins as he came back up.

2383
02:13:29,301 --> 02:13:30,869
Rollins with a kick to the face.

2384
02:13:30,936 --> 02:13:32,838
Riddle still standing-- Oh!

2385
02:13:34,873 --> 02:13:36,541
[Corey] As is Rollins after that blow.

2386
02:13:36,608 --> 02:13:38,276
[Cole] Riddle ducked underneath.

2387
02:13:38,343 --> 02:13:39,978
Caught Rollins with a kick.

2388
02:13:40,045 --> 02:13:42,214
-[shouting]
-[Cole] Riddle finding a second life.

2389
02:13:42,280 --> 02:13:45,584
He ran into a right by Rollins.

2390
02:13:45,650 --> 02:13:47,352
Blow to the back of the neck.

2391
02:13:48,220 --> 02:13:49,988
Seth Rollins looking for the stomp.

2392
02:13:50,055 --> 02:13:52,023
Riddle met him with a knee!

2393
02:13:52,090 --> 02:13:53,425
[Corey] He caught right, Rollins,

2394
02:13:53,492 --> 02:13:56,161
I believe,
right in the center of his chest.

2395
02:13:57,396 --> 02:13:59,765
[Cole] And a step-up enzuigiri by Rollins.

2396
02:14:00,365 --> 02:14:01,967
-[shouting]
-[Saxton] Riddle!

2397
02:14:02,034 --> 02:14:04,202
[Cole] Riddle! How the hell,
how is he still going?

2398
02:14:04,269 --> 02:14:05,737
[Saxton] I don't know. No clue.

2399
02:14:05,804 --> 02:14:07,773
[Cole] Rollins just kicked him
in the face.

2400
02:14:08,974 --> 02:14:10,675
And now Riddle setting up Rollins.

2401
02:14:10,742 --> 02:14:12,044
Rollins lands on his feet!

2402
02:14:12,110 --> 02:14:14,146
Hooks Riddle for the pedigree!

2403
02:14:14,212 --> 02:14:15,714
Pedigree!

2404
02:14:15,781 --> 02:14:17,349
Rollins with the cover!

2405
02:14:17,416 --> 02:14:19,151
-Is it enough to win?
-[crowd] One, two…

2406
02:14:19,217 --> 02:14:20,419
[Cole] Riddle kicks out!

2407
02:14:20,485 --> 02:14:22,487
[cheering]

2408
02:14:31,963 --> 02:14:34,066
[Corey] Watch this right hand
from Rollins.

2409
02:14:34,132 --> 02:14:36,001
Right on the jaw of Riddle.

2410
02:14:36,968 --> 02:14:40,305
Followed up by a second
to the base of Riddle's skull.

2411
02:14:40,372 --> 02:14:44,109
Rollins delivers the pedigree,

2412
02:14:44,176 --> 02:14:48,280
and shockingly, Riddle survives.

2413
02:14:48,346 --> 02:14:50,649
[Cole] And if you're Rollins,
what do you do?

2414
02:14:50,715 --> 02:14:54,686
Rollins has thrown everything
in his arsenal at Riddle.

2415
02:14:55,420 --> 02:14:57,856
[crowd chanting] This is awesome!

2416
02:14:59,157 --> 02:15:00,425
Look what you get, Riddle.

2417
02:15:05,697 --> 02:15:07,666
You're a loser!

2418
02:15:07,732 --> 02:15:09,301
You understand me?

2419
02:15:10,535 --> 02:15:13,738
You understand me? You're a loser.

2420
02:15:13,805 --> 02:15:16,274
Your wife knew it.
That's why she left you.

2421
02:15:16,341 --> 02:15:19,344
These people know it,
and your kids are gonna know it.

2422
02:15:19,411 --> 02:15:21,880
You're a goddamn loser, you hear me?

2423
02:15:23,181 --> 02:15:26,751
Oh, my goodness!
Rollins just pissed off Riddle!

2424
02:15:26,818 --> 02:15:30,522
And here comes Riddle,
an emotional powder keg.

2425
02:15:30,589 --> 02:15:33,191
[Saxton] This could have been
a fatal mistake by Seth Rollins.

2426
02:15:33,925 --> 02:15:36,595
[Corey] Or it could
have been an expertly laid trap

2427
02:15:36,661 --> 02:15:40,665
by The Architect,
using Riddle's own anger against him.

2428
02:15:42,467 --> 02:15:45,971
[Cole] The emotions of Riddle
may have cost him there.

2429
02:15:46,037 --> 02:15:48,974
[Corey] Rollins knows exactly
what he's doing.

2430
02:15:49,040 --> 02:15:53,745
[Cole] Yeah, Riddle's mentor,
Randy Orton, who's out with injury.

2431
02:15:53,812 --> 02:15:56,114
[Corey] Hey, guys,
Rollins is going to that place.

2432
02:15:56,681 --> 02:16:00,519
[Cole] Rollins with the Orton-draping DDT,

2433
02:16:00,585 --> 02:16:03,188
rubbing salt in the wounds of Riddle.

2434
02:16:04,656 --> 02:16:07,425
[Corey] Vintage Seth "Freakin'" Rollins.

2435
02:16:08,760 --> 02:16:10,529
[crowd chanting]

2436
02:16:10,595 --> 02:16:15,133
[Cole] I think the vault limits
in this match for Seth Rollins.

2437
02:16:24,209 --> 02:16:26,678
-[Saxton] Oh, you--
-[Corey] Really?

2438
02:16:26,745 --> 02:16:29,548
[Cole] Speaking of Randy Orton,
the Apex Predator.

2439
02:16:29,614 --> 02:16:31,283
Rollins went for an RKO!

2440
02:16:31,349 --> 02:16:33,818
[Corey] Riddle able
to grab Rollins out of the air.

2441
02:16:33,885 --> 02:16:36,755
[Saxton] The rear-naked choke submission
is sunk in deep!

2442
02:16:36,821 --> 02:16:40,292
[Cole] And Riddle just beating
the hell out of Seth Rollins,

2443
02:16:40,358 --> 02:16:42,093
pounding him in the back of the head!

2444
02:16:42,694 --> 02:16:44,229
[Corey] Riddle is relentless.

2445
02:16:46,898 --> 02:16:51,970
[Cole] Rollins is gonna rue everything
he said about Riddle and his family.

2446
02:16:53,705 --> 02:16:56,241
Now making Rollins pay.

2447
02:16:56,308 --> 02:16:58,610
Pounding him off the announce table.

2448
02:17:00,212 --> 02:17:03,081
[Saxton] I feel like Riddle
is just seeing red right now.

2449
02:17:05,817 --> 02:17:07,719
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

2450
02:17:07,786 --> 02:17:10,288
[Cole] Riddle's gotta be careful,
of course. Disqualification--

2451
02:17:10,355 --> 02:17:12,090
[Corey] He doesn't care
about the damn move.

2452
02:17:12,157 --> 02:17:14,526
[Cole] Rollins, though, retreats.

2453
02:17:14,593 --> 02:17:17,228
Runs back into the ring, and a stomp!

2454
02:17:17,295 --> 02:17:19,931
A stomp by Rollins!

2455
02:17:19,998 --> 02:17:20,999
[Saxton] Wow!

2456
02:17:21,600 --> 02:17:26,371
[Cole] Rollins used Riddle's
own emotion against him.

2457
02:17:26,438 --> 02:17:29,274
[Saxton] Riddle tried to contain it
this entire match.

2458
02:17:29,341 --> 02:17:32,510
[Cole] And he made a mistake.
Riddle made a mistake.

2459
02:17:32,577 --> 02:17:34,646
He let his emotions get the best of him,

2460
02:17:34,713 --> 02:17:38,516
and now Seth Rollins
is prepared to pounce.

2461
02:17:38,583 --> 02:17:40,385
[Saxton] Now is your time.

2462
02:17:40,452 --> 02:17:44,422
Join the chorus
and witness the revolution.

2463
02:17:44,489 --> 02:17:45,757
[Corey] Oh, wait.

2464
02:17:45,824 --> 02:17:47,959
Rollins to the second rope.

2465
02:17:48,760 --> 02:17:50,362
Riddle back to his feet.

2466
02:17:50,428 --> 02:17:53,798
[Cole] Rollins with a stomp
from the second rope!

2467
02:17:53,865 --> 02:17:58,169
The master manipulator
plays on the emotions of Riddle

2468
02:17:58,236 --> 02:17:59,838
and picks up the win.

2469
02:17:59,904 --> 02:18:01,740
[Seth Rollins' theme music plays]

2470
02:18:01,806 --> 02:18:03,908
[announcer] Here is your winner,

2471
02:18:03,975 --> 02:18:09,414
Seth "Frickin'" Rollins!

2472
02:18:10,482 --> 02:18:16,855
[Saxton] Hate to say it,
but Seth Rollins outsmarted Matt Riddle

2473
02:18:16,921 --> 02:18:18,823
tonight at Clash of the Castles.

2474
02:18:18,890 --> 02:18:22,060
[Corey] Seth Rollins
was like a great matador tonight

2475
02:18:22,127 --> 02:18:25,630
because all Matt Riddle was
was a bull seeing red.

2476
02:18:26,264 --> 02:18:30,168
Rollins expertly used Matt Riddle's
own anger

2477
02:18:30,235 --> 02:18:32,470
against The Original Bro,

2478
02:18:32,537 --> 02:18:36,074
and the whole world can sing along.

2479
02:18:38,109 --> 02:18:40,979
[Saxton] Think about it,
Rollins almost ended Riddle's career

2480
02:18:41,046 --> 02:18:44,182
and ridiculed his intelligence,
attacked his family.

2481
02:18:44,249 --> 02:18:45,784
[Cole] Yeah, but it worked. It worked.

2482
02:18:45,850 --> 02:18:48,420
[Saxton] He had the ultimate
bragging right for Seth Rollins now

2483
02:18:48,486 --> 02:18:50,555
because Rollins is the one
who's victorious.

2484
02:18:50,622 --> 02:18:52,791
[Cole] I mean, say what you want
about Seth Rollins.

2485
02:18:52,857 --> 02:18:54,859
You may not have to agree
with everything he did,

2486
02:18:54,926 --> 02:18:57,128
but right here,
he pushed the buttons of Riddle.

2487
02:18:57,195 --> 02:18:59,831
Riddle lost control, and because of that,

2488
02:18:59,898 --> 02:19:03,568
Seth Rollins was able to capitalize
with a stomp

2489
02:19:03,635 --> 02:19:05,804
and then another one
from the second rope.

2490
02:19:06,771 --> 02:19:11,342
Rollins establishing dominance over Riddle
here tonight at Clash of the Castles.

2491
02:19:11,409 --> 02:19:13,378
[Corey] Riddle fought his heart out.

2492
02:19:13,445 --> 02:19:15,046
There is no doubt about it.

2493
02:19:15,113 --> 02:19:17,382
Riddle will live to fight another day,

2494
02:19:17,449 --> 02:19:22,921
but this one will live in the mind
of The Original Bro for a long, long time.

2495
02:19:24,656 --> 02:19:27,492
[Saxton] One mistake is all it took

2496
02:19:28,259 --> 02:19:31,696
to create the opening for the visionary,

2497
02:19:31,763 --> 02:19:36,768
the revolutionary,
Seth "Freakin'" Rollins.

2498
02:19:39,304 --> 02:19:42,140
Not beginning to conform
to the eye of Riddle.

2499
02:19:56,020 --> 02:19:57,789
I'll see you never, pal.

2500
02:19:57,856 --> 02:19:59,090
I'll see you never.

2501
02:19:59,157 --> 02:20:00,859
[laughs]

2502
02:20:07,799 --> 02:20:09,901
[upbeat music playing]

2503
02:20:26,017 --> 02:20:29,454
[narrator] WWE Shop,
now A Fanatics Experience.

2504
02:20:31,823 --> 02:20:33,725
[Cole] Well, this took place
earlier today.

2505
02:20:33,792 --> 02:20:36,728
That is the Undisputed Champion
Roman Reigns

2506
02:20:36,795 --> 02:20:39,364
talking to the two-time World
Heavyweight Champion,

2507
02:20:39,431 --> 02:20:42,534
Lineal Boxing Champion,
the Gypsy King from Manchester,

2508
02:20:42,600 --> 02:20:44,235
Tyson Fury.

2509
02:20:44,302 --> 02:20:46,204
We can only imagine
what they were talking about

2510
02:20:46,271 --> 02:20:49,207
as Roman Reigns prepares
to defend here tonight.

2511
02:20:49,808 --> 02:20:53,144
[Corey] Well, the Gypsy King is here
with one of the best seats in the house,

2512
02:20:53,211 --> 02:20:55,580
his entire family and crew with him.

2513
02:20:55,647 --> 02:21:00,819
Tyson Fury enjoying the madness
that has been Clash at the Castle,

2514
02:21:00,885 --> 02:21:04,322
but Tyson Fury not the only superstars

2515
02:21:04,389 --> 02:21:06,791
getting an eye on tonight's events.

2516
02:21:06,858 --> 02:21:09,561
The Harbinger of Sorrow himself,

2517
02:21:09,627 --> 02:21:12,096
Karrion Kross alongside Scarlett,

2518
02:21:12,163 --> 02:21:16,267
keeping a very close eye
on McIntyre and Roman Reigns.

2519
02:21:16,334 --> 02:21:17,702
[Cole] Well, ladies and gentlemen,

2520
02:21:17,769 --> 02:21:20,472
what an extraordinary event tonight,
and what a wonderful week here.

2521
02:21:20,538 --> 02:21:24,609
Clash at the Castle in the vibrant
capital city of Wales, Cardiff,

2522
02:21:24,676 --> 02:21:26,544
located on beautiful Cardiff Bay.

2523
02:21:26,611 --> 02:21:29,714
The city is a multicultural melting pot.

2524
02:21:29,781 --> 02:21:32,684
World-class sports, restaurants,
and of course, pubs.

2525
02:21:32,750 --> 02:21:34,752
The Glassworks,
the City Arms, Pen and Wig,

2526
02:21:34,819 --> 02:21:38,456
all have had a lot of my money
over the past couple of days.

2527
02:21:38,523 --> 02:21:41,226
But guys, what an amazing city in Cardiff.

2528
02:21:41,292 --> 02:21:42,794
We haven't been here for a long time,

2529
02:21:42,861 --> 02:21:44,762
but we've certainly
been here for a good time.

2530
02:21:44,829 --> 02:21:46,130
I can't wait to get back.

2531
02:21:46,197 --> 02:21:47,999
[Saxton] I can't tell you
how many fans I met

2532
02:21:48,066 --> 02:21:49,734
just walking around Cardiff yesterday

2533
02:21:49,801 --> 02:21:53,304
and how much gratitude they had,
how much appreciation for the fact

2534
02:21:53,371 --> 02:21:55,773
that WWE would not only return to Cardiff,

2535
02:21:55,840 --> 02:21:58,409
but return with an event
of this magnitude.

2536
02:21:58,476 --> 02:22:00,578
[Corey] Well, let's return
some of that gratitude

2537
02:22:00,645 --> 02:22:03,681
by saying thank you
to the city of Cardiff, Wales.

2538
02:22:04,549 --> 02:22:06,351
[Cole] Well, I am so honored
and privileged

2539
02:22:06,417 --> 02:22:10,822
to be sitting here at ringside tonight,
a front-row seat for this epic battle.

2540
02:22:10,889 --> 02:22:14,792
In this United Kingdom home,
the challenger is Drew McIntyre,

2541
02:22:14,859 --> 02:22:20,698
looking to end Roman Reigns'
historic two-year, 734-day reign

2542
02:22:20,765 --> 02:22:25,670
as the Undisputed WWE
Universal Champion.

2543
02:22:31,009 --> 02:22:34,812
[narrator] There is no arguing
the undisputed,

2544
02:22:36,047 --> 02:22:39,350
for he who holds the gold

2545
02:22:39,417 --> 02:22:41,586
rules the realm.

2546
02:22:42,387 --> 02:22:44,389
[growls]

2547
02:22:46,891 --> 02:22:52,463
For years, one man has reigned
over this kingdom,

2548
02:22:52,530 --> 02:22:55,333
ruling with brute force,

2549
02:22:55,400 --> 02:22:58,536
laying waste to all challengers.

2550
02:22:59,237 --> 02:23:03,374
[man] And as Reigns grows more confident,
Reigns grows more dangerous.

2551
02:23:06,911 --> 02:23:09,547
[narrator] An inferno of dominance.

2552
02:23:09,614 --> 02:23:11,616
[growls]

2553
02:23:15,153 --> 02:23:17,622
Incinerating the opposition,

2554
02:23:17,689 --> 02:23:20,858
leaving scorched earth behind.

2555
02:23:20,925 --> 02:23:24,796
[Heyman] The Tribal Chief fears no man,

2556
02:23:24,862 --> 02:23:30,868
but they all fear Roman Reigns.

2557
02:23:31,736 --> 02:23:34,505
[narrator] He has fortified his empire,

2558
02:23:34,572 --> 02:23:37,575
unlimited power within his grasp.

2559
02:23:37,642 --> 02:23:41,112
[man] Roman Reigns rules the Universe!

2560
02:23:44,882 --> 02:23:50,021
[narrator] But from the ashes,
a new hope arises.

2561
02:23:50,088 --> 02:23:52,423
[man] You better summon the British Army.

2562
02:23:56,427 --> 02:23:58,496
[narrator] A soldier of valor.

2563
02:23:58,563 --> 02:24:02,000
[Drew] Roman Reigns
is an absolute monster,

2564
02:24:02,066 --> 02:24:03,768
and I'm gonna take him down.

2565
02:24:03,835 --> 02:24:06,738
[narrator] A son of the United Kingdom.

2566
02:24:06,804 --> 02:24:11,075
[Drew] Roman, you're coming
to my island, in front of my people.

2567
02:24:11,142 --> 02:24:14,512
This isn't a job. This is my damn dream.

2568
02:24:14,579 --> 02:24:18,650
I am gonna drop your ass.
I am gonna win those titles.

2569
02:24:22,687 --> 02:24:27,125
[Roman] Drew McIntyre, you're lying.

2570
02:24:27,792 --> 02:24:32,463
The Tribal Chief
and The Bloodline runs WWE.

2571
02:24:33,164 --> 02:24:36,300
[man 1] A hellacious assault
by The Bloodline!

2572
02:24:36,367 --> 02:24:39,904
[man 2] The Usos are always there
to have Roman Reigns back.

2573
02:24:40,471 --> 02:24:43,241
[Roman] What I say has substance here.

2574
02:24:44,142 --> 02:24:46,711
I don't have to say anything
face-to-face to Drew

2575
02:24:46,778 --> 02:24:48,246
because he's beneath me.

2576
02:24:51,049 --> 02:24:55,053
This whole industry,
this whole business, runs off of me!

2577
02:24:56,487 --> 02:24:59,090
[Drew] You've got The Bloodline
working for you physically,

2578
02:24:59,157 --> 02:25:02,660
taking bullets for you,
and sure, you're in God mode,

2579
02:25:02,727 --> 02:25:04,095
but you are just a man.

2580
02:25:05,697 --> 02:25:09,801
I can see something different
in your eyes when it's just you and I.

2581
02:25:09,867 --> 02:25:15,139
I see concern, and you should be scared,
because there is not a man alive

2582
02:25:15,206 --> 02:25:20,211
that Drew McIntyre cannot tear apart
with his bare hands.

2583
02:25:21,512 --> 02:25:24,315
[narrator] The battle is upon us.

2584
02:25:25,583 --> 02:25:28,786
[Roman] The top of the mountain is mine,

2585
02:25:28,853 --> 02:25:31,889
and you will never have it
until I'm done with it!

2586
02:25:31,956 --> 02:25:33,658
Understand me?

2587
02:25:33,725 --> 02:25:37,261
[Drew] When are you gonna
understand, Roman?

2588
02:25:37,328 --> 02:25:41,499
I will never, ever stop!

2589
02:25:41,566 --> 02:25:45,236
[man 1] It has been an emotional,
a passionate journey for McIntyre

2590
02:25:45,303 --> 02:25:48,339
that climaxes in the United Kingdom.

2591
02:25:48,406 --> 02:25:50,975
[Drew] In Cardiff, it comes down
to me and you.

2592
02:25:51,042 --> 02:25:54,946
I am gonna kick your head
right off your body,

2593
02:25:55,012 --> 02:26:00,618
and you're gonna look up
at the new undisputed champion.

2600
02:28:36,407 --> 02:28:42,079
[Cole] You're looking at the first
Scottish-born WWE Champion,

2601
02:28:42,880 --> 02:28:47,718
a man who cut his teeth
in British Championship Wrestling,

2602
02:28:47,785 --> 02:28:51,422
Irish Whip Wrestling,
the Scottish Wrestling Alliance,

2603
02:28:51,489 --> 02:28:53,658
and here tonight finds himself

2604
02:28:53,724 --> 02:28:56,093
with an opportunity of a lifetime,

2605
02:28:57,628 --> 02:29:03,668
a match that Drew McIntyre has called
the most important match of his career.

2606
02:29:04,335 --> 02:29:07,471
McIntyre is back home
in the United Kingdom,

2607
02:29:07,538 --> 02:29:11,676
hoping to end the historic reign
of Roman Reigns.

2608
02:29:11,742 --> 02:29:14,879
[Corey] As much as this has been
a dream come true tonight,

2609
02:29:14,946 --> 02:29:18,249
Drew McIntyre's is a tale of redemption,

2610
02:29:18,316 --> 02:29:23,220
an arduous lifelong journey
to this moment,

2611
02:29:23,287 --> 02:29:29,493
guided from the heavens by his mother
tonight into the mouth of the lion.

2612
02:29:33,998 --> 02:29:35,566
[Cole] Drew McIntyre…

2613

Drew McIntyre has never defeated
Roman Reigns

in singles competition.

2617
02:29:54,318 --> 02:29:58,789
They last met one-on-one a couple
of years ago at Survivor Series.

2618
02:29:58,856 --> 02:30:00,992
It did not go well for Mr. McIntyre.

2619
02:30:04,195 --> 02:30:06,864
Will Drew's luck change tonight?

2620
02:30:06,931 --> 02:30:11,002
[Corey] Roman Reigns has never
had to face Drew McIntyre

2621
02:30:11,068 --> 02:30:13,804
and the entire United Kingdom at once.

2622
02:30:16,240 --> 02:30:20,711
[Saxton] McIntyre on his island
in front of his people.

2623
02:30:21,812 --> 02:30:24,448
There is one more step to accomplish.

2624
02:30:25,049 --> 02:30:30,388

Universal Champion.

[Cole] For 734 days,

2638
02:33:07,945 --> 02:33:10,915
this man has reigned as a champion.

2639
02:33:12,049 --> 02:33:13,584
Over the last two years,

2640
02:33:13,651 --> 02:33:18,255
Roman Reigns
has had twenty-three title retentions.

2641
02:33:19,256 --> 02:33:24,695
He was last pinned
in December of 2019,

2642
02:33:24,762 --> 02:33:26,630
nearly three years ago.

2643
02:33:26,697 --> 02:33:30,234

over this historic stretch,

Jey Uso, Braun Strowman,

2647
02:33:42,980 --> 02:33:46,116
that's the list of men
that have been slayed by Roman Reigns,

2648
02:33:46,183 --> 02:33:48,819
but there's a big difference tonight,

2649
02:33:48,886 --> 02:33:54,325
because tonight, Roman Reigns
heads to the ring without The Bloodline.

2650
02:33:54,391 --> 02:33:59,830
[Corey] Tonight, the Island of Relevancy
is a very lonely place to be.

2651
02:33:59,897 --> 02:34:03,667
Roman is ready for battle
because his throne,

2652
02:34:03,734 --> 02:34:06,770
at the head of the table, is under threat

2653
02:34:06,837 --> 02:34:11,141
by a living, breathing,
fire-breathing dragon.

2654
02:34:11,208 --> 02:34:13,043
[Cole] There are no Usos.

2655
02:34:13,110 --> 02:34:15,479
They're not medically cleared
to be here tonight.

2656
02:34:15,546 --> 02:34:17,147
The same with Sami Zayn,

2657
02:34:17,214 --> 02:34:19,617
after the hellacious attack
by Drew McIntyre

2658
02:34:19,683 --> 02:34:21,285
on SmackDown last night.

2659
02:34:21,352 --> 02:34:22,553
We haven't seen Paul Heyman,

2660
02:34:22,620 --> 02:34:25,055
seen Brock Lesnar dump him
through the announce table

2661
02:34:25,122 --> 02:34:26,724
with an F-5 at SummerSlam.

2662
02:34:26,790 --> 02:34:28,859
So Roman Reigns
coming out here tonight,

2663
02:34:28,926 --> 02:34:32,463
it's like the President coming out
without his Secret Service.

2664
02:34:32,529 --> 02:34:35,499
He's vulnerable,
he's alone, and he's in trouble

2665
02:34:35,566 --> 02:34:37,334
against McIntyre.

2666
02:34:37,401 --> 02:34:41,071
[Saxton] And on the flip side,
you see confidence, focus

2667
02:34:41,138 --> 02:34:45,309
booming from Drew McIntyre,
who believes in his heart

2668
02:34:45,376 --> 02:34:50,514
that it is he who is the biggest threat
to The Tribal Chief.

2669
02:34:50,581 --> 02:34:52,349
[Cole] Guys, listen to this stat.

2670
02:34:53,550 --> 02:34:56,453
Over the two years
Roman Reigns has been champion,

2671
02:34:57,621 --> 02:35:01,492
there have been 55 championship changes

2672
02:35:01,558 --> 02:35:04,061
with all the other titles in WWE.

2673
02:35:05,329 --> 02:35:09,566
Fifty-five over the time
that Roman Reigns has ruled as champ.

2674
02:35:09,633 --> 02:35:11,001
[Corey] Consistency.

2675
02:35:11,535 --> 02:35:15,506
That is what Roman Reigns has conveyed

2676
02:35:15,572 --> 02:35:20,577
and lived for over two years here at WWE.

2677
02:35:26,884 --> 02:35:28,886
[Cole] McIntyre staring at the champion.

2678
02:35:28,952 --> 02:35:32,122
Corey, you had Drew as a guest
on the After the Bell podcast.

2679
02:35:32,189 --> 02:35:34,792
Very emotional moment for Drew McIntyre.

2680
02:35:34,858 --> 02:35:38,729
[Corey] Drew McIntyre feels as though
his entire life has led up to tonight.

2681
02:35:38,796 --> 02:35:42,633
However, Drew has been incredibly busy
all week long.

2682
02:35:42,700 --> 02:35:47,938
Drew has practically not stopped
media appearances, charity opportunities.

2683
02:35:48,005 --> 02:35:51,308
Drew McIntyre has not stopped
since his plane touchdown

2684
02:35:51,375 --> 02:35:52,910
just past Sunday.

2685
02:35:52,976 --> 02:35:57,381
Roman Reigns, however,
has had one goal, one task,

2686
02:35:57,448 --> 02:35:59,616
focus on the challenge.

2687
02:35:59,683 --> 02:36:01,852
[Cole] Do you think that could be
a problem for Drew?

2688
02:36:02,886 --> 02:36:05,723
[Corey] If it's faith,
if this is truly meant to be,

2689
02:36:05,789 --> 02:36:08,359
then no,
it shouldn't be a problem for McIntyre,

2690
02:36:08,425 --> 02:36:10,094
but Roman Reigns hopes it will be.

2691
02:36:13,197 --> 02:36:14,531
[bell rings]

2692
02:36:14,598 --> 02:36:17,067
[announcer] The following contest
scheduled for one fall

2693
02:36:17,134 --> 02:36:21,505
is for the Undisputed WWE

2694
02:36:21,572 --> 02:36:25,709
Universal Championship!

2695
02:36:25,776 --> 02:36:28,445
[crowd cheering]

2696
02:36:29,747 --> 02:36:33,550
Introducing the challenger
from Ayr, Scotland.

2697
02:36:34,885 --> 02:36:39,223
Weighing in at 275 pounds,

2698
02:36:39,289 --> 02:36:42,893
Drew McIntyre!

2699
02:36:42,960 --> 02:36:45,028
[crowd cheering]

2700
02:36:52,703 --> 02:36:56,673
And his opponent
from Pensacola, Florida.

2701
02:36:56,740 --> 02:36:59,943
Weighing in at 265 pounds,

2702
02:37:00,010 --> 02:37:04,515
he is the Undisputed WWE

2703
02:37:04,581 --> 02:37:07,918
Universal Champion,

2704
02:37:07,985 --> 02:37:13,724
Roman Reigns!

2705
02:37:13,791 --> 02:37:15,793
[crowd booing]

2706
02:37:50,227 --> 02:37:56,066
[Cole] A big fight atmosphere
in Principality Stadium

2707
02:37:56,133 --> 02:38:02,005
in front of 62,296 WWE fans

2708
02:38:02,072 --> 02:38:05,876
in the United Kingdom,
the homeland of Drew McIntyre.

2709
02:38:05,943 --> 02:38:12,115
Roman Reigns putting his historic
734 day championship reign on the line.

2710
02:38:12,182 --> 02:38:15,052
The world is talking
about Clash at the Castle,

2711
02:38:15,118 --> 02:38:18,422
and here we go
for the Unified Championship!

2712
02:38:18,489 --> 02:38:20,591
[cheering]

2713
02:38:27,831 --> 02:38:29,299
[cheering continues]

2714
02:38:36,507 --> 02:38:39,576
[crowd chanting] Oh, Drew McIntyre!

2715
02:38:39,643 --> 02:38:42,746
Oh, Drew McIntyre!

2716
02:38:42,813 --> 02:38:45,782
Oh, Drew McIntyre!

2717
02:38:45,849 --> 02:38:49,486
Oh, Drew McIntyre!

2718
02:38:49,553 --> 02:38:53,056
Oh, Drew McIntyre!

2719
02:39:01,298 --> 02:39:04,334
[Cole] You heard about
the sixth man in basketball, right?

2720
02:39:04,401 --> 02:39:10,908
How about the 62,000 man here tonight
in Cardiff in the corner of Drew McIntyre?

2721
02:39:10,974 --> 02:39:13,544
Lock up, we're underway,
McIntyre and Reigns.

2722
02:39:13,610 --> 02:39:15,145
Corey, let's break this down.

2723
02:39:15,212 --> 02:39:17,247
For McIntyre, how does he
win the championship?

2724
02:39:17,314 --> 02:39:19,550
[Corey] McIntyre has to present
Roman Reigns

2725
02:39:19,616 --> 02:39:21,718
with something
Roman has never seen before.

2726
02:39:21,785 --> 02:39:23,720
These two have done battles
so many times,

2727
02:39:23,787 --> 02:39:26,323
they're familiar with one another,
with their strategies,

2728
02:39:26,390 --> 02:39:28,725
with their game plans,
with their move sets.

2729
02:39:28,792 --> 02:39:31,562
Drew is gonna have to think outside
the box to knock off the champion.

2730
02:39:31,628 --> 02:39:34,264
[Cole] Byron, for the champ,
how do you extend your reign?

2731
02:39:34,331 --> 02:39:36,333
[Saxton] Again, it's very similar
for Roman Reigns

2732
02:39:36,400 --> 02:39:40,337
because the familiarity that Drew McIntyre
has for his offensive repertoire.

2733
02:39:40,404 --> 02:39:43,674
Roman Reigns has to dig deep,
try to surprise McIntyre

2734
02:39:43,740 --> 02:39:45,108
with something he hasn't seen.

2735
02:39:45,175 --> 02:39:48,345
[Corey] While Roman Reigns may be
out here without The Bloodline,

2736
02:39:48,412 --> 02:39:52,215
Reigns, I'm sure, is eager
to remind the WWE Universe

2737
02:39:52,282 --> 02:39:54,885
that he made the climb
to the top of the mountain.

2738
02:39:54,952 --> 02:39:56,420
[Cole] Let's remind everyone too,

2739
02:39:56,486 --> 02:39:59,323
Roman wouldn't even be champion today
if it wasn't for The Bloodline

2740
02:39:59,389 --> 02:40:01,091
and how they all buried Brock Lesnar

2741
02:40:01,158 --> 02:40:03,260
under a heap of rubble
back at SummerSlam, right?

2742
02:40:03,327 --> 02:40:06,196
So Roman Reigns understands
what The Bloodline means to him.

2743
02:40:06,263 --> 02:40:08,432
And he also, he doesn't have
the home-field advantage.

2744
02:40:08,498 --> 02:40:11,168
This is all McIntyre
here tonight in Cardiff.

2745
02:40:12,903 --> 02:40:15,606
[Corey] I can't believe this,
but The Tribal Chief seems shaken

2746
02:40:15,672 --> 02:40:16,673
in the early moments.

2747
02:40:16,740 --> 02:40:19,343
[Saxton] Roman knew coming in
he was gonna be in enemy territory.

2748
02:40:19,409 --> 02:40:21,979
But it's one thing to know,
it's another to experience it.

2749
02:40:22,045 --> 02:40:24,514
And we're seeing the impact
that's had on Roman early on.

2750
02:40:24,581 --> 02:40:27,584
[Cole] So what Roman needs to do
is quell this early wave from McIntyre,

2751
02:40:27,651 --> 02:40:29,820
knock him down early,
take the crowd out of the game.

2752
02:40:29,886 --> 02:40:31,021
[Saxton] Exactly.

2753
02:40:33,790 --> 02:40:36,293
[Cole] A side headlock
to try to slow things down,

2754
02:40:36,360 --> 02:40:38,829
Roman trying
to establish dominance early…

2755
02:40:40,163 --> 02:40:41,698
against Drew McIntyre,

2756
02:40:41,765 --> 02:40:44,968
who of course owns the victory
over Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania.

2757
02:40:45,035 --> 02:40:48,338
And one of his two WWE championships.

2758
02:40:48,405 --> 02:40:51,041
-[Saxton laughs]
-[indistinct]

2759
02:40:51,708 --> 02:40:54,678
[Cole] It's not often
you see Roman Reigns back away.

2760
02:40:55,512 --> 02:40:59,349
[Corey] The challenger just walked
the champion down in the ring.

2761
02:41:00,350 --> 02:41:03,487
What a power move by Drew McIntyre.

2762
02:41:06,189 --> 02:41:09,159
[Saxton] This scene, I'm still trying
to digest what we're seeing here

2763
02:41:09,226 --> 02:41:11,028
is Roman Reigns is out of sorts.

2764
02:41:11,094 --> 02:41:12,929
[Corey] There's nothing to digest, Byron.

2765
02:41:12,996 --> 02:41:16,767
Roman is used to having
Paul Heyman or Jimmy and Jey Uso

2766
02:41:16,833 --> 02:41:20,771
on the outside of the ring
to confer with, to discuss strategy.

2767
02:41:25,475 --> 02:41:28,445
[Cole] And Drew is feeding off the fans.

2768
02:41:29,212 --> 02:41:32,816
And Roman Reigns ducks underneath,
stand and switch by McIntyre.

2769
02:41:32,883 --> 02:41:35,085
Roman went for the elbow,
Drew able to neutralize,

2770
02:41:35,152 --> 02:41:36,586
but not that time.

2771
02:41:38,088 --> 02:41:39,656
[Corey] McIntyre's gotta be careful

2772
02:41:39,723 --> 02:41:41,792
not to get caught up
in the emotion of the moment.

2773
02:41:41,858 --> 02:41:46,897
We know that the passion of the fans
is what's driven McIntyre to this point.

2774
02:41:46,963 --> 02:41:51,368
But Drew cannot rely on the live crowd,
he needs to stay on his game plan.

2775
02:41:51,435 --> 02:41:53,837
[Cole] Yeah, but one of the things
we just saw with McIntyre,

2776
02:41:53,904 --> 02:41:55,005
their violence and speed.

2777
02:41:55,072 --> 02:41:58,141
The quickness, the intensity,
agility of Drew McIntyre.

2778
02:41:58,208 --> 02:42:00,544
And it's got Roman completely
off the game.

2779
02:42:00,610 --> 02:42:03,780
[Saxton] Drew McIntyre's intensity was
off the charts heading into this match.

2780
02:42:03,847 --> 02:42:06,149
And to the credit of the crowd
here in Cardiff,

2781
02:42:06,216 --> 02:42:08,518
he is feeding off their energy
to fuel that intensity.

2782
02:42:08,585 --> 02:42:10,854
[Cole] And one of the things
we're seeing tonight, Corey,

2783
02:42:10,921 --> 02:42:12,456
and unlike we saw with Riddle earlier,

2784
02:42:12,522 --> 02:42:14,758
who was very emotional in his matchup
with Seth Rollins,

2785
02:42:14,825 --> 02:42:16,626
Drew is keeping that emotion inside
right now.

2786
02:42:16,693 --> 02:42:18,595
He's very under control,

2787
02:42:18,662 --> 02:42:21,164
and he hasn't let it
get the best of him yet against Roman.

2788
02:42:21,231 --> 02:42:22,966
[Corey] Drew is laser-focused right now.

2789
02:42:23,033 --> 02:42:26,603
And Drew is focusing
all of the emotional energy within

2790
02:42:26,670 --> 02:42:28,238
on the task at hand,

2791
02:42:28,305 --> 02:42:30,774
on The Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns.

2792
02:42:30,841 --> 02:42:32,743
That is the mark of a veteran hitting
his game.

2793
02:42:32,809 --> 02:42:34,845
[Cole] And again,
to get back to your point earlier,

2794
02:42:34,911 --> 02:42:37,714
this is the moment right here
where the Wiseman, Paul Heyman,

2795
02:42:37,781 --> 02:42:39,149
would be over with Roman Reigns,

2796
02:42:39,216 --> 02:42:42,085
calming him down, getting in his head,
give him some strategy.

2797
02:42:42,152 --> 02:42:46,623
Just making Roman understand
who he is as the best in the world.

2798
02:42:46,690 --> 02:42:47,891
[crowd booing]

2799
02:42:47,958 --> 02:42:50,861
Try telling the fans here in Cardiff

2800
02:42:51,461 --> 02:42:52,996
just who he is.

2801
02:42:57,400 --> 02:42:59,469
[Saxton] I think that's just
going to excite him.

2802
02:42:59,536 --> 02:43:01,538
[crowd chanting indistinctly]

2803
02:43:05,675 --> 02:43:07,978
[Cole] And again, Roman,
this is great strategy.

2804
02:43:08,044 --> 02:43:11,148
He hasn't allowed Drew to pick up
on that momentum as of yet.

2805
02:43:13,917 --> 02:43:19,055
[Corey] And The Bloodline may have helped
Roman retain his championship a few times.

2806
02:43:19,122 --> 02:43:21,258
But Roman Reigns
won the championships on his own,

2807
02:43:21,324 --> 02:43:24,461
his own accord of his own skill
and his own volition.

2808
02:43:26,029 --> 02:43:30,000
[Cole] McIntyre can ill-afford
to allow Roman Reigns

2809
02:43:30,066 --> 02:43:32,803
to slow the match down,
take the crowd out of it.

2810
02:43:34,504 --> 02:43:36,740
[Saxton] This is exactly where
Roman wants to be,

2811
02:43:36,806 --> 02:43:39,643
measured shots on the challenger.

2812
02:43:42,379 --> 02:43:44,548
[crowd chanting indistinctly]

2813
02:43:50,387 --> 02:43:52,889
[Cole] There's one thing to claim
you're the best in the world,

2814
02:43:52,956 --> 02:43:56,560
but when you believe it,
like Roman Reigns does, hard to stop him.

2815
02:43:58,161 --> 02:44:00,764
Oh, but McIntyre, though,
ducks underneath.

2816
02:44:01,464 --> 02:44:04,601
Changes Reigns' balance,
and now it's McIntyre's turn.

2817
02:44:04,668 --> 02:44:10,273
[crowd] One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight, nine…

2818
02:44:10,974 --> 02:44:13,677
Oh…

2819
02:44:13,743 --> 02:44:15,579
Ten!

2820
02:44:15,645 --> 02:44:18,081
And Roman now stumbling around.

2821
02:44:18,148 --> 02:44:21,618
McIntyre looking to pick up the pace,
drives Roman over the top rope.

2822
02:44:21,685 --> 02:44:23,019
And right to our announce table,

2823
02:44:23,086 --> 02:44:25,589
and it may be regroup time
for the champion.

2824
02:44:25,655 --> 02:44:28,024
[Corey] There was a dazed look
in Roman's eyes just now.

2825
02:44:28,091 --> 02:44:29,793
[Cole] I was just gonna point that out.

2826
02:44:29,859 --> 02:44:31,461
Roman Reigns,

2827
02:44:31,528 --> 02:44:35,765
I mean, I don't remember the last time
I've seen that look in Roman's eyes.

2828
02:44:35,832 --> 02:44:39,169
And Corey, we've called just about every
one of Reigns' championship matches

2829
02:44:39,236 --> 02:44:40,704
over the past two years.

2830
02:44:40,770 --> 02:44:43,573
And I'm not quite sure
I've seen Reigns look like that before.

2831
02:44:43,640 --> 02:44:47,611
[Corey] Roman Reigns almost perpetually
seems in control of his emotions.

2832
02:44:47,677 --> 02:44:49,813
It's what's taken him
to the pinnacle of his business.

2833
02:44:49,880 --> 02:44:52,549
[Cole] Now Reigns driven
into the steel steps by McIntyre.

2834
02:44:52,616 --> 02:44:54,918
Now remember, very key point,

2835
02:44:54,985 --> 02:44:57,821
Drew's gotta pin
or submit the champion, right?

2836
02:44:57,887 --> 02:45:01,224
Countouts, disqualifications
do not help McIntyre.

2837
02:45:04,294 --> 02:45:07,063
So Drew has gotta get the champ
back into the ring here.

2838
02:45:10,200 --> 02:45:13,303
[Corey] McIntyre firmly
understanding that.

2839
02:45:13,370 --> 02:45:17,641
Keeping the referee's count in mind
as he refocuses on the champ.

2840
02:45:20,677 --> 02:45:22,312
[Cole] Well, let's not start that now.

2841
02:45:24,547 --> 02:45:29,486
Oh, that was Karrion Kross
accompanied by Miss Scarlett,

2842
02:45:29,552 --> 02:45:32,088
drawing the attention of McIntyre.

2843
02:45:32,155 --> 02:45:34,391
-And remember--
-[Saxton] Now not the time, Drew.

2844
02:45:34,457 --> 02:45:38,094
You wanna go? I'll shove that hourglass
up your ass, get over here.

2845
02:45:38,161 --> 02:45:39,229
We'll do this right now.

2846
02:45:39,296 --> 02:45:40,930
[Cole] Roman Reigns takes advantage,

2847
02:45:40,997 --> 02:45:43,300
and perhaps
that's the opening Roman needed.

2848
02:45:43,366 --> 02:45:46,069
[Corey] That might be the only opening
Roman needed.

2849
02:45:46,136 --> 02:45:48,071
Drew took his eye off the ball,

2850
02:45:48,138 --> 02:45:50,473
and might have just blown
the biggest chance of his life.

2851
02:45:50,540 --> 02:45:52,776
[Saxton] And how ironic,
we were just talking about this,

2852
02:45:52,842 --> 02:45:55,145
how well Drew
was controlling his emotions,

2853
02:45:55,211 --> 02:45:56,446
channeling his emotions.

2854
02:45:56,513 --> 02:45:59,349
We'll leave it
up to Karrion Kross there. Oh!

2855
02:45:59,416 --> 02:46:01,351
[Cole] Well, what did you expect him
to do, guys?

2856
02:46:01,418 --> 02:46:04,120
Kross through a water bottle at him.
I mean, come on.

2857
02:46:04,187 --> 02:46:08,491
And Karrion Kross has been talking
about The Chosen One and McIntyre.

2858
02:46:08,558 --> 02:46:09,726
Now a count of five.

2859
02:46:09,793 --> 02:46:13,496
[Corey] McIntyre has one job tonight,
dethrone Roman Reigns.

2860
02:46:13,563 --> 02:46:15,732
[Cole] Roman Reigns,
he'll take the countout win.

2861
02:46:15,799 --> 02:46:18,802
Count of seven now, McIntyre trying
to drag himself back in the ring.

2862
02:46:18,868 --> 02:46:22,806
We're at a count of eight already.
McIntyre slips at a count of nine.

2863
02:46:22,872 --> 02:46:25,642
McIntyre barely beats the count.

2864
02:46:25,709 --> 02:46:30,013
[Saxton] How embarrassing would
that have been for Drew McIntyre?

2865
02:46:30,080 --> 02:46:32,549
[Cole] He slipped and he almost
didn't make the count back in.

2866
02:46:32,615 --> 02:46:36,019
[Corey] And Roman today disbelieve
that McIntyre even beat the count.

2867
02:46:36,086 --> 02:46:40,123
Now Reigns with a kick,
and now Roman Reigns is in full God mode.

2868
02:46:40,190 --> 02:46:41,958
Cover, thought he went for the cover,

2869
02:46:42,025 --> 02:46:44,828
but now he's gonna inflict
more punishment on Drew.

2870
02:46:44,894 --> 02:46:47,430
Now the cover, and a kick-out by McIntyre.

2871
02:46:50,133 --> 02:46:52,969
[Corey] Catching glimpses
of the savage side of Roman Reigns.

2872
02:46:53,036 --> 02:46:55,672
It's almost like
without The Wiseman at ringside,

2873
02:46:55,739 --> 02:47:00,944
Roman reverts to what he knows best,
to his father, the Wild Samoan, Sika.

2874
02:47:01,011 --> 02:47:03,213
Straight up savagery from the champ.

2875
02:47:05,648 --> 02:47:08,284
[Cole] Talking trash for McIntyre
is Reigns.

2876
02:47:08,351 --> 02:47:10,687
Roman Reigns took advantage
of an opportunity

2877
02:47:10,754 --> 02:47:14,057
that he has so many times
over the past two years.

2878
02:47:14,124 --> 02:47:16,860
And he's completely
turned this match into his favor.

2879
02:47:18,228 --> 02:47:20,897
[Saxton] McIntyre being battered
in the corner.

2880
02:47:20,964 --> 02:47:23,933
[Cole] Listen, you're champion for
two years, you're doing something right.

2881
02:47:24,000 --> 02:47:26,069
You're also taking advantage
of situations,

2882
02:47:26,136 --> 02:47:27,437
and sometimes you get lucky.

2883
02:47:28,872 --> 02:47:32,342
Drew McIntyre driven into the post,
shoulder first.

2884
02:47:33,643 --> 02:47:36,713
And Drew hit himself hard in the steps
as he fell out of the ring.

2885
02:47:36,780 --> 02:47:38,782
[crowd booing]

2886
02:47:40,250 --> 02:47:42,452
This again is what
McIntyre wanted to avoid,

2887
02:47:42,519 --> 02:47:44,888
allowing The Tribal Chief

2888
02:47:44,954 --> 02:47:48,758
to wrestle control of the pace
of this match away from him.

2889
02:47:48,825 --> 02:47:50,393
[Saxton] And like you saw earlier,

2890
02:47:50,460 --> 02:47:52,362
I'm sure Roman Reigns
would be highly content

2891
02:47:52,429 --> 02:47:54,030
to win this match by countout.

2892
02:47:54,097 --> 02:47:55,899
-[Cole] Why not?
-[referee] Five!

2893
02:47:55,965 --> 02:47:58,968
[Cole] Count of five,
McIntyre's gotta pin or submit the champ.

2894
02:47:59,035 --> 02:48:02,705
McIntyre dragging himself up to the apron.

2895
02:48:02,772 --> 02:48:06,276
Count of seven now,
again by referee Charles Robinson.

2896
02:48:06,342 --> 02:48:08,411
And Roman realized
Drew was gonna make it back in,

2897
02:48:08,478 --> 02:48:10,780
so he said let me take a quick shot.

2898
02:48:10,847 --> 02:48:11,981
And another one.

2899
02:48:13,716 --> 02:48:17,153
[Corey] McIntyre barely holding on
with that one hand,

2900
02:48:17,220 --> 02:48:18,688
and now thriving from the apron.

2901
02:48:18,755 --> 02:48:20,957
[Cole] And he hung up Roman
in the top rope,

2902
02:48:21,024 --> 02:48:22,826
and McIntyre now looks to build momentum.

2903
02:48:22,892 --> 02:48:26,096
Roman Reigns, though, with that
jumping clothesline, cover to retain.

2904
02:48:26,162 --> 02:48:28,031
Kick-out at one by McIntyre.

2905
02:48:31,968 --> 02:48:33,703
It is gonna take a lot for Roman Reigns

2906
02:48:33,770 --> 02:48:35,972
to put Drew McIntyre away tonight.

2907
02:48:37,207 --> 02:48:38,441
Impact.

2908
02:48:40,443 --> 02:48:43,947
[Corey] Reigns having a conversation
with himself at the top of your screen.

2909
02:48:45,782 --> 02:48:48,051
Trying to solve this challenger.

2910
02:48:48,118 --> 02:48:49,886
[groaning]

2911
02:48:52,088 --> 02:48:53,223
Modified by Reigns,

2912
02:48:53,289 --> 02:48:55,191
smart strategy, this allows the champion

2913
02:48:55,258 --> 02:48:59,696
to strategize and maintain
head control of his opponent.

2914
02:49:00,597 --> 02:49:02,765
[Saxton] Also get into the head
as he continues

2915
02:49:02,832 --> 02:49:06,002
to talk trash to McIntyre in the process.

2916
02:49:06,069 --> 02:49:09,372
[Cole] What an atmosphere here tonight
at Principality Stadium.

2917
02:49:09,439 --> 02:49:12,242
Drew McIntyre
from Scotland, United Kingdom,

2918
02:49:12,308 --> 02:49:14,944
trying to wrestle away
the championship from Roman Reigns.

2919
02:49:15,011 --> 02:49:16,946
What a boot!

2920
02:49:17,013 --> 02:49:20,617
McIntyre may be out,
Roman caught him flush.

2921
02:49:20,683 --> 02:49:23,953
Cover, hook to the leg.
And McIntyre still able to kick-out.

2922
02:49:24,020 --> 02:49:25,955
Roman hasn't been able
to get a two-count yet.

2923
02:49:27,323 --> 02:49:30,760
[Corey] I think the one counts
are simply inciting The Head of the Table.

2924
02:49:30,827 --> 02:49:34,697
Roman Reigns growing more
and more angry as this match progresses.

2925
02:49:34,764 --> 02:49:40,737
As we look once again at a thunderous boot
unleashed on the challenger.

2926
02:49:40,803 --> 02:49:42,305
[Cole] And can you guys feel it?

2927
02:49:42,372 --> 02:49:48,945
I mean, this is an unbelievable atmosphere
here tonight in front of 62,296.

2928
02:49:49,012 --> 02:49:52,148
Can you imagine what will happen
to this place

2929
02:49:52,215 --> 02:49:55,852
if Drew McIntyre can pin Roman Reigns
to win the undisputed title?

2930
02:49:55,919 --> 02:49:57,253
[Corey] I'll tell you this, Cole,

2931
02:49:57,320 --> 02:49:59,355
I'm not coming
to work on Monday if that goes down.

2932
02:49:59,422 --> 02:50:02,125
-It's gonna be a hell of a party.
-[Cole] That would be a good show.

2933
02:50:02,192 --> 02:50:05,562
McIntyre now with a couple of chops
to Roman Reigns.

2934
02:50:07,463 --> 02:50:09,966
And here's McIntyre,
whipped into the corner!

2935
02:50:11,000 --> 02:50:14,037
[Corey] And McIntyre crumbles once again.

2936
02:50:15,605 --> 02:50:18,341
[Cole] And Roman Reigns now
in firm control.

2937
02:50:18,408 --> 02:50:21,444
[Saxton] It's almost as though
Roman's insulted

2938
02:50:21,511 --> 02:50:25,048
by the welts on his chest
from the Drew McIntyre chops.

2939
02:50:25,114 --> 02:50:27,717
How dare you?
How dare you come at the champ?

2940
02:50:27,784 --> 02:50:29,586
Who do you think you are, huh?

2941
02:50:29,652 --> 02:50:31,187
Who do you think you are, huh?

2942
02:50:31,788 --> 02:50:33,556
You're a big, tough guy…

2943
02:50:33,623 --> 02:50:35,925
Oh, I'm gonna fuck him up. [indistinct]

2944
02:50:35,992 --> 02:50:37,994
[crowd booing]

2945
02:50:42,232 --> 02:50:44,133
[Saxton] I gotta ask you,
is that a mistake

2946
02:50:44,200 --> 02:50:46,769
for Roman Reigns to spend more time
running his mouth

2947
02:50:46,836 --> 02:50:49,038
and siding the crowd
as opposed to beating McIntyre?

2948
02:50:49,105 --> 02:50:50,840
[Cole] I never questioned Roman Reigns.

2949
02:50:50,907 --> 02:50:54,711
Maybe you're right, as McIntyre's fighting
back now with chops to the champion.

2950
02:50:57,080 --> 02:51:00,049
Roman gonna beat Drew down again.

2951
02:51:01,384 --> 02:51:04,354
I mean, there is a reason
that we say Roman's in God mode.

2952
02:51:06,422 --> 02:51:08,291
Because there's never been anyone
like him.

2953
02:51:10,660 --> 02:51:13,830
[Saxton] Talk about the passion
in Roman's voice a couple weeks ago

2954
02:51:13,896 --> 02:51:15,531
when he yelled at the camera,

2955
02:51:15,598 --> 02:51:19,402
I'm daring somebody,
take this industry away from me.

2956
02:51:24,641 --> 02:51:28,011
[Cole] "Understand me,
the top of the mountain is mine."

2957
02:51:28,077 --> 02:51:30,546
That's what he told McIntyre
a couple of weeks ago.

2958
02:51:35,551 --> 02:51:39,255
Drew McIntyre trying to block the suplex,
trying to deliver one of his own.

2959
02:51:39,322 --> 02:51:40,923
Roman able to block as well.

2960
02:51:43,893 --> 02:51:46,996
-And now McIntyre-- Oh, and--
-[Saxton] Still can't get the advantage.

2961
02:51:47,063 --> 02:51:50,600
[Cole] Yeah, Roman survived, and now
Roman looking for a vertical suplex.

2962
02:51:50,667 --> 02:51:54,304
Drew able to turn things around,
and now it's McIntyre's turn.

2963
02:51:54,370 --> 02:51:55,405
No!

2964
02:52:02,812 --> 02:52:03,946
What a fight.

2965
02:52:04,013 --> 02:52:06,049
Give the microphone now. [grunts]

2966
02:52:07,917 --> 02:52:09,719
[Cole] Roman just requested a microphone.

2967
02:52:10,987 --> 02:52:12,989
[crowd booing]

2968
02:52:18,995 --> 02:52:20,330
Cardiff!

2969
02:52:21,030 --> 02:52:23,032
[booing continues]

2970
02:52:28,204 --> 02:52:30,406
Acknowledge me!

2971
02:52:30,473 --> 02:52:32,775
[booing continues]

2972
02:52:35,845 --> 02:52:38,047
[Cole] Oh, Glasgow Kiss!

2973
02:52:38,114 --> 02:52:40,016
[Saxton] I don't think
that's what he meant.

2974
02:52:40,850 --> 02:52:42,985
[Cole] Both men down, center of the ring.

2975
02:52:43,052 --> 02:52:47,323
And this now has become
a critical point of the match!

2976
02:52:47,390 --> 02:52:48,991
Watch, listen.

2977
02:52:56,666 --> 02:52:58,701
[Corey] Referee Charles Robinson.

2978
02:53:00,369 --> 02:53:01,738
He's checking on both athletes,

2979
02:53:01,804 --> 02:53:03,940
and I think McIntyre took
as much out of himself

2980
02:53:04,006 --> 02:53:05,742
as he did Roman with the headbutt.

2981
02:53:05,808 --> 02:53:08,878
Take another look at the impact
with that Glasgow Kiss.

2982
02:53:08,945 --> 02:53:10,947
[Cole] Here's an important thing
to remember.

2983
02:53:13,316 --> 02:53:15,184
If Robinson starts a count,

2984
02:53:17,153 --> 02:53:19,689
and he hasn't yet,
because both men are back to their feet.

2985
02:53:20,189 --> 02:53:23,726
Roman Reigns, Drew McIntyre,
again, face to face.

2986
02:53:24,394 --> 02:53:26,629
Center of the ring,
where this match began.

2987
02:53:45,948 --> 02:53:47,750
Now Roman went low.

2988
02:53:50,453 --> 02:53:54,457
McIntyre whipped into the corner
and explodes out of it with a clothesline.

2989
02:53:54,524 --> 02:53:57,960
Reigns back to his feet with another
short clothesline by McIntyre.

2990
02:53:58,027 --> 02:53:59,829
[Saxton] Now McIntyre building momentum!

2991
02:53:59,896 --> 02:54:03,499
[Cole] There's that classic
belly-to-belly throw by Drew.

2992
02:54:04,534 --> 02:54:08,604
And you're right, Byron,
you can feel a change now in this match.

2993
02:54:10,139 --> 02:54:11,941
McIntyre, neckbreaker.

2994
02:54:25,121 --> 02:54:26,823
And there's the kick-up.

2995
02:54:26,889 --> 02:54:28,891
[cheering]

2996
02:54:30,660 --> 02:54:32,662
[Saxton] The challenger can feel it.

2997
02:54:33,296 --> 02:54:38,134
[Corey] Could this be the beginning
of the end for Roman Reigns?

2998
02:54:38,201 --> 02:54:42,505
[Cole] Sixty thousand plus believe so.
McIntyre in the corner.

2999
02:54:44,540 --> 02:54:48,811
[Saxton] McIntyre hoisting up
Roman Reigns on that top rope.

3000
02:54:54,617 --> 02:54:55,618
[Cole] Now Drew…

3001
02:54:57,487 --> 02:55:00,723
Roman looking to block,
trying to hang on somehow.

3002
02:55:03,626 --> 02:55:06,662
[Saxton] Up in the ante right now
is Drew McIntyre,

3003
02:55:06,729 --> 02:55:09,332
all the way from the very top rope.

3004
02:55:09,398 --> 02:55:11,667
[Cole] And Roman Reigns fighting,
he understands,

3005
02:55:11,734 --> 02:55:15,271
desperate for Reigns, but it paid off.

3006
02:55:18,040 --> 02:55:20,710
[Corey] Reigns able to catch his breath
just for a moment.

3007
02:55:22,345 --> 02:55:24,547
[Cole] McIntyre is still not down,

3008
02:55:24,614 --> 02:55:27,550
both men still teetering on the top rope.

3009
02:55:28,384 --> 02:55:31,988
-Reigns actually sitting on the ring post.
-[Corey] McIntyre's got a fistful of hair.

3010
02:55:32,054 --> 02:55:35,191
[Cole] Better be careful,
the official Charles Robinson right there.

3011
02:55:35,791 --> 02:55:38,427
[Saxton] McIntyre
in a precarious position,

3012
02:55:39,295 --> 02:55:41,264
at the mercy of Roman Reigns.

3013
02:55:42,098 --> 02:55:45,167
[Cole] McIntyre though,
tremendous core strength!

3014
02:55:46,235 --> 02:55:47,970
Up and over goes Roman.

3015
02:55:48,037 --> 02:55:50,406
[Corey] Nasty landing for the champion
high on his shoulder.

3016
02:55:50,473 --> 02:55:55,811
[Cole] And McIntyre reemerges
in the corner.

3017
02:55:56,779 --> 02:55:58,547
[Saxton] Prepare the countdown.

3018
02:55:58,614 --> 02:56:01,150
[Cole] And it might be time
for Roman Reigns

3019
02:56:01,217 --> 02:56:02,785
to take a ride in the country.

3020
02:56:02,852 --> 02:56:04,754
[crowd booing]

3021
02:56:04,820 --> 02:56:07,089
[Corey] Maybe not a popular decision
by Reigns,

3022
02:56:07,156 --> 02:56:09,592
but certainly the right decision
in this moment.

3023
02:56:10,960 --> 02:56:14,630
[Cole] McIntyre took the fight outside
the ring, but Roman Reigns was ready.

3024
02:56:23,439 --> 02:56:27,209
The wear and tear
on both of these men starting to show.

3025
02:56:27,276 --> 02:56:29,912
McIntyre's looking
for the future shock DDT,

3026
02:56:29,979 --> 02:56:31,581
Reigns able to counter.

3027
02:56:36,152 --> 02:56:39,388
And Roman now runs
into a spine buster by McIntyre!

3028
02:56:39,455 --> 02:56:42,959
Jackknife cover for the championship!
He got him! He got him!

3029
02:56:43,693 --> 02:56:44,794
[Saxton] No, he did not.

3030
02:56:45,628 --> 02:56:46,929
[Corey] Oh, my, that was close.

3031
02:56:46,996 --> 02:56:50,032
[Saxton] Referee Charles Robinson
was right in there

3032
02:56:50,099 --> 02:56:51,701
with a bird's eye view.

3033
02:56:51,767 --> 02:56:53,169
[Cole] I'd love to see that again.

3034
02:56:53,869 --> 02:56:55,438
[Saxton] You'll get your wish.

3035
02:56:55,504 --> 02:56:57,907
-First a spine buster--
-[Cole] Watch this.

3036
02:56:57,974 --> 02:56:59,875
One, two…

3037
02:56:59,942 --> 02:57:02,278
-[Cole] Oh, just before three.
-[Saxton] Oh, man.

3038
02:57:02,345 --> 02:57:07,450
[Corey] Doesn't get any closer than that
without the bell ringing and new.

3039
02:57:09,352 --> 02:57:13,189
And for McIntyre,
right back up, ready for the attack,

3040
02:57:13,255 --> 02:57:17,827
didn't wallow in the fact
that he didn't close out the match there.

3041
02:57:19,795 --> 02:57:23,132
McIntyre's got too much respect
for Roman Reigns and his ability.

3042
02:57:26,402 --> 02:57:28,437
[Cole] McIntyre with Roman up.

3043
02:57:28,504 --> 02:57:31,907
Roman just went to the eyes,
tried to rake the eyes of McIntyre.

3044
02:57:31,974 --> 02:57:35,978
And it was wise how he turned the bodies
around so the official didn't see it.

3045
02:57:36,045 --> 02:57:39,015
Oh! Rock Bottom by Roman Reigns!

3046
02:57:39,081 --> 02:57:42,918
Cover, hook of the leg now!
McIntyre at two.

3047
02:57:44,453 --> 02:57:46,722
[Saxton] I believe
that was the first two-count for Roman

3048
02:57:46,789 --> 02:57:49,325
in the match, if I'm not mistaken.

3049
02:57:49,992 --> 02:57:51,694
[Corey] I believe you are correct.

3050
02:57:52,261 --> 02:57:55,898
It's gotta feel good for the champion
as we look once again at this

3051
02:57:56,632 --> 02:57:59,835
uranage planting the challenger.

3052
02:57:59,902 --> 02:58:01,704
Reigns has got to be growing

3053
02:58:02,938 --> 02:58:06,308
at least a little more confident
as this match progresses,

3054
02:58:06,375 --> 02:58:10,713
seeing Drew McIntyre wear down,
watching Drew begin to fade.

3055
02:58:10,780 --> 02:58:14,116
[Cole] And the longer the match goes,
who does it favor, you believe the champ?

3056
02:58:14,183 --> 02:58:15,985
[Corey] I think the confidence
of Roman Reigns

3057
02:58:16,052 --> 02:58:17,353
is what it all boils down to.

3058
02:58:18,154 --> 02:58:21,991
[Saxton] Here we see a picture-perfect
example of that confidence.

3059
02:58:22,058 --> 02:58:25,027
Roman Reigns reminding who the ones are

3060
02:58:25,094 --> 02:58:29,165
as he has eyes locked and loaded
on McIntyre.

3061
02:58:31,901 --> 02:58:34,470
[Cole] McIntyre struggling
just to make it to his feet,

3062
02:58:34,537 --> 02:58:36,839
Roman Reigns went
for the Superman Punch,

3063
02:58:36,906 --> 02:58:38,941
Drew ducked underneath,
Future Shock DDT!

3064
02:58:41,410 --> 02:58:42,978
This may be the moment,

3065
02:58:44,046 --> 02:58:48,350
a lifetime of waiting for Drew McIntyre.

3066
02:58:48,417 --> 02:58:50,119
It may be about to end!

3067
02:58:50,753 --> 02:58:53,689
Roman Reigns with a Superman Punch!

3068
02:58:53,756 --> 02:58:58,360
Cover by the champion,
hook of the leg, McIntyre kicks out!

3069
02:59:00,896 --> 02:59:03,599
[Corey] Roman was going
to Claymore Country,

3070
02:59:03,666 --> 02:59:06,435
and he intercepted with a Superman Punch.

3071
02:59:07,136 --> 02:59:10,339
[Saxton] Think about the pressure,
if you're Drew McIntyre,

3072
02:59:10,406 --> 02:59:14,710
Sixty thousand plus behind your back,

3073
02:59:14,777 --> 02:59:17,546
driving you right into a Superman Punch.

3074
02:59:17,613 --> 02:59:20,649
[Corey] McIntyre doesn't only
have the fans behind his back,

3075
02:59:20,716 --> 02:59:25,254
he has their support but also the weight
of the entire United Kingdom

3076
02:59:25,321 --> 02:59:26,989
on his broad shoulders.

3077
02:59:27,056 --> 02:59:30,860
That is a great deal of pressure
that would cause lesser men to crumble.

3078
02:59:30,926 --> 02:59:32,661
Maybe that's what's happening to Drew.

3079
02:59:33,329 --> 02:59:39,201
[Cole] We talked
about the home crowd, 62,296,

3080
02:59:39,268 --> 02:59:42,838
firmly in the corner of Drew McIntyre

3081
02:59:42,905 --> 02:59:45,841
in the capital city of Wales, Cardiff.

3082
02:59:48,344 --> 02:59:51,046
[Saxton] You see the determination
on the face of McIntyre,

3083
02:59:51,113 --> 02:59:53,983
a continued scene from Roman Reigns.

3084
02:59:54,049 --> 02:59:57,853
But once again, perhaps a little bit of
doubt in the mind of The Tribal Chief.

3085
02:59:57,920 --> 02:59:59,922
[Cole] Yeah, but here's
the other side of the coin,

3086
02:59:59,989 --> 03:00:01,390
Roman Reigns has been here before.

3087
03:00:01,457 --> 03:00:04,460
How many times over the last two years
has he been in this position?

3088
03:00:04,527 --> 03:00:06,962
Had to dig down deep to retain the title.

3089
03:00:07,029 --> 03:00:09,398
This is new for McIntyre
for the most part,

3090
03:00:09,465 --> 03:00:11,333
for a long time since he's been champion.

3091
03:00:14,503 --> 03:00:16,372
[crowd] Ooh!

3092
03:00:16,438 --> 03:00:20,075
Roman Reigns, a spear--
And he ran into a kick!

3093
03:00:21,844 --> 03:00:26,081
Oh! A spear by Roman,
to win, to win, to win!

3094
03:00:26,148 --> 03:00:28,350
Drew McIntyre kick-out at two!

3095
03:00:28,951 --> 03:00:32,354
-[Saxton] Unreal!
-[Cole] Roman in disbelief!

3096
03:00:32,421 --> 03:00:35,024
[Corey] Now that is doubt,
that is disbelief,

3097
03:00:35,090 --> 03:00:37,827
that is confusion on the champion's face.

3098
03:00:37,893 --> 03:00:40,863
Roman Reigns doesn't know
what the hell just happened.

3099
03:00:43,532 --> 03:00:50,539
[Saxton] Drew McIntyre just absorbed
perhaps the best shot from Roman Reigns.

3100
03:00:50,606 --> 03:00:56,412
[Cole] The spear has put away
many men, but not McIntyre.

3101
03:00:56,478 --> 03:00:59,381
And again, let's get back to the point,
the wise man's not here, Corey.

3102
03:00:59,448 --> 03:01:01,850
Heyman's not out here
to give Roman confidence

3103
03:01:01,917 --> 03:01:03,719
to help him out,
to keep his head in the game.

3104
03:01:03,786 --> 03:01:05,387
There's something to be said about that.

3105
03:01:05,454 --> 03:01:07,823
[Corey] Roman's trying to talk himself
back into this game.

3106
03:01:07,890 --> 03:01:11,961
There is doubt etched all over the face
of The Tribal Chief.

3107
03:01:12,027 --> 03:01:15,431
[Saxton] It's like he's second-questioning
himself a bit, right?

3108
03:01:16,232 --> 03:01:20,636
Seven hundred and thirty-four days
of this historical title reign.

3109
03:01:20,703 --> 03:01:23,372
Does Roman feel it slipping away?

3110
03:01:24,640 --> 03:01:26,842
[Cole] Roman's shaking his head
again in disbelief.

3111
03:01:26,909 --> 03:01:29,111
What do I gotta do
to put you away, McIntyre?

3112
03:01:29,178 --> 03:01:31,513
And now the guillotine,
the guillotine is in.

3113
03:01:31,580 --> 03:01:35,017
The submission move,
trying to bring McIntyre to his knees

3114
03:01:35,084 --> 03:01:38,153
and put this away,
and end the dream of McIntyre

3115
03:01:38,220 --> 03:01:40,990
and the 60,000 plus
here tonight at Cardiff.

3116
03:01:43,726 --> 03:01:47,229
[Saxton] Is this how the story ends
for Drew McIntyre?

3117
03:01:48,797 --> 03:01:50,633
[Cole] Drew trying to make it
back to his feet,

3118
03:01:50,699 --> 03:01:52,534
trying to power his way
out of the guillotine.

3119
03:01:52,601 --> 03:01:55,271
Burying Reigns in the corner,
McIntyre does.

3120
03:01:55,838 --> 03:01:58,908
Roman goes to the guillotine
again in the center of the ring.

3121
03:02:00,342 --> 03:02:03,445
And again, looking to wear McIntyre down.

3122
03:02:03,512 --> 03:02:07,883
[Corey] Reigns got all of his weight
on Drew McIntyre right now.

3123
03:02:08,517 --> 03:02:11,086
In addition to the guillotine,
this is exhausting.

3124
03:02:11,153 --> 03:02:14,423
-This is impossible to breathe in.
-[Cole] Drew's still on his feet, Corey.

3125
03:02:14,490 --> 03:02:17,192
McIntyre's still on his feet.
McIntyre has not faded.

3126
03:02:17,259 --> 03:02:21,730
McIntyre is still feeding off the momentum
and the adrenaline here tonight.

3127
03:02:21,797 --> 03:02:24,667
And now powering Roman
into the corner again.

3128
03:02:26,869 --> 03:02:31,640
And now posted Reigns, and now
the champ is in deep, deep trouble.

3129
03:02:34,476 --> 03:02:36,946
[Corey] But McIntyre needs
to be aware of the situation

3130
03:02:37,012 --> 03:02:39,448
and get Roman back inside the ring.

3131
03:02:40,149 --> 03:02:43,919
If Roman gets counted out,
Drew's dreams go up in smoke.

3132
03:02:46,889 --> 03:02:48,157
[Cole] Count of three now.

3133
03:02:49,158 --> 03:02:53,362
McIntyre, I think, just now realized
where Roman was and what he has to do.

3134
03:02:53,429 --> 03:02:55,130
And Drew now rolling back out of the ring.

3135
03:02:55,197 --> 03:02:57,232
He's gotta try to get Roman Reigns
back in.

3136
03:02:58,233 --> 03:03:00,402
The only way he can win the championship.

3137
03:03:00,469 --> 03:03:02,438
[Corey] What does Drew have left
in the tank?

3138
03:03:03,105 --> 03:03:05,207
Oh, and went through the barricade!

3139
03:03:05,274 --> 03:03:08,210
Drew spearing Reigns
through the barricade!

3140
03:03:09,078 --> 03:03:11,046
[Corey] But Drew has to be in a hurry.

3141
03:03:11,113 --> 03:03:12,915
Drew has gotta hustle.
You gotta get him in.

3142
03:03:12,982 --> 03:03:14,984
[Saxton] That's exactly
what McIntyre's doing.

3143
03:03:15,050 --> 03:03:17,252
[Cole] He does get him in,
McIntyre with an opportunity.

3144
03:03:17,319 --> 03:03:19,555
Roman Reigns with the spear
through the barricade.

3145
03:03:19,621 --> 03:03:21,357
Drew McIntyre has Reigns
where he wants him.

3146
03:03:21,423 --> 03:03:25,794
Carrying the entire United Kingdom
on his shoulders--

3147
03:03:25,861 --> 03:03:28,297
Oh! Spear by Reigns.

3148
03:03:28,364 --> 03:03:32,034
Reigns to the tag!
That's two, three-- No, kick-out!

3149
03:03:33,535 --> 03:03:34,670
[Corey] How?

3150
03:03:36,472 --> 03:03:40,809
How in the hell
is McIntyre still in this?

3151
03:03:40,876 --> 03:03:42,811
[Saxton] It's his heart,
that's all it is, Corey,

3152
03:03:42,878 --> 03:03:44,413
it's the heart of Drew McIntyre.

3153
03:03:44,480 --> 03:03:47,149
When it seems like
his body is failing him,

3154
03:03:47,216 --> 03:03:50,919
Drew McIntyre's heart is keeping him
in this championship bout.

3155
03:03:50,986 --> 03:03:54,957
[Cole] Again went for the Claymore,
again intercepted this time by a spear.

3156
03:03:55,024 --> 03:03:57,593
Roman Reigns almost put McIntyre away.

3157
03:03:57,659 --> 03:04:00,796
But now the doubt has to be creeping
into the mind of the champion.

3158
03:04:00,863 --> 03:04:02,731
How do I beat McIntyre?

3159
03:04:02,798 --> 03:04:04,767
[crowd chanting] Oh, Drew McIntyre!

3160
03:04:04,833 --> 03:04:06,301
Oh, Drew McIntyre!

3161
03:04:06,368 --> 03:04:10,472
[Corey] That exchange reinvigorated
the live fans here in Cardiff,

3162
03:04:10,539 --> 03:04:12,841
all trying to rally the challenger.

3163
03:04:12,908 --> 03:04:16,612
[Saxton] The Superman Punch
wasn't enough, two spears, guillotine.

3164
03:04:16,678 --> 03:04:19,782
All not enough to put Drew McIntyre away.

3165
03:04:29,458 --> 03:04:32,594
[Cole] Both men absolutely exhausted.

3166
03:04:36,432 --> 03:04:39,568
Roman, Drew, Roman the first.

3167
03:04:41,370 --> 03:04:44,206
And again, Roman's asking the referee,
Charles Robinson,

3168
03:04:44,273 --> 03:04:46,175
"Two? Are you sure it was two?"

3169
03:04:46,241 --> 03:04:48,844
His entire time, Roman might have thought
this match was over.

3170
03:04:50,279 --> 03:04:52,181
That was three!

3171
03:04:52,247 --> 03:04:54,249
[indistinct conversation]

3172
03:04:57,553 --> 03:04:59,621
[Cole] Something Roman
hasn't done much, Corey,

3173
03:04:59,688 --> 03:05:00,956
lose his cool.

3174
03:05:06,195 --> 03:05:08,430
McIntyre from behind!

3175
03:05:08,497 --> 03:05:10,399
A Claymore to the back of Reigns,

3176
03:05:10,466 --> 03:05:12,868
and it just knocked the official
out of the ring.

3177
03:05:12,935 --> 03:05:16,405
[Corey] Charles Robinson down and out
in front of our table here.

3178
03:05:16,472 --> 03:05:17,973
[Austin Theory's theme song playing]

3179
03:05:18,040 --> 03:05:19,675
-[Corey] Oh, my God!
-[Cole] Oh, no.

3180
03:05:19,741 --> 03:05:20,809
[Corey] Oh, my God!

3181
03:05:20,876 --> 03:05:24,413
[Cole] Here, not this, that's Mr. Money
in the Bank, Austin Theory

3182
03:05:24,480 --> 03:05:26,582
who can cash in a contract.

3183
03:05:26,648 --> 03:05:28,383
And it's not unprecedented, Corey.

3184
03:05:28,450 --> 03:05:31,653
We have a cash in
to make it a Triple Threat match.

3185
03:05:31,720 --> 03:05:33,322
Rollins did it in WrestleMania.

3186
03:05:33,388 --> 03:05:35,757
-[Corey] He's gonna do it!
-[Cole] Can he beat Reigns--

3187
03:05:35,824 --> 03:05:37,392
I want to cash this in. Let's go.

3188
03:05:37,459 --> 03:05:39,761
-[Cole] Oh, my God!
-[crowd cheers]

3189
03:05:39,828 --> 03:05:45,033
Tyson Fury just knocked
the hell out of Theory!

3190
03:05:45,100 --> 03:05:47,269
[Saxton] What the hell
did you do that for?

3191
03:05:53,242 --> 03:05:55,711
[Cole] And now Roman Reigns
with a chair.

3192
03:05:55,777 --> 03:05:57,779
Referee Charles Robinson's out.

3193
03:05:57,846 --> 03:06:00,349
Claymore! Claymore!

3194
03:06:00,415 --> 03:06:03,952
The official back in the ring!
Cover by McIntyre!

3195
03:06:04,019 --> 03:06:06,321
What a championship! And a kick-out!

3196
03:06:06,388 --> 03:06:07,956
A kick-out by Roman.

3197
03:06:13,262 --> 03:06:15,430
[Saxton] The Money in the Bank
cash in forwarded.

3198
03:06:15,497 --> 03:06:20,435
A Claymore delivered by Drew McIntyre,
and this match still rages on.

3199
03:06:20,502 --> 03:06:22,204
I want to cash this in. Let's go.

3200
03:06:22,271 --> 03:06:25,340
[Cole] Tyson Fury knocked
the hell out of Theory.

3201
03:06:26,141 --> 03:06:28,143
No Money in the Bank cash in.

3202
03:06:30,379 --> 03:06:36,051
Roman went to use a chair,
McIntyre with a Claymore.

3203
03:06:36,118 --> 03:06:39,221
The official that came down
with Theory entered into the match,

3204
03:06:39,288 --> 03:06:43,392
because Charles Robinson's out,
and Roman able to kick-out at two.

3205
03:06:51,633 --> 03:06:53,168
What in the hell's gonna happen next?

3206
03:06:53,235 --> 03:06:56,471
[Corey] I have no idea.
This is an absolute war.

3207
03:06:57,372 --> 03:07:00,509
[Saxton] Think about the emotional
rollercoaster this has been

3208
03:07:00,576 --> 03:07:03,612
for both Roman Reigns
and Drew McIntyre.

3209
03:07:07,716 --> 03:07:12,354
[Cole] Drew trying to fight back,
Reigns fighting back, both men spent.

3210
03:07:16,592 --> 03:07:19,494
[Corey] Their bodies ache,
their lungs are burning.

3211
03:07:20,562 --> 03:07:22,297
It's a matter of pure will.

3212
03:07:23,465 --> 03:07:27,869
[Cole] It's about being undisputed,
the best in the world.

3213
03:07:27,936 --> 03:07:31,707
The Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.

3214
03:07:31,773 --> 03:07:34,776
Reigns wants to keep it,
McIntyre wants to win it.

3215
03:07:35,844 --> 03:07:38,580
[Corey] Either man willing
to give an inch to his opponent.

3216
03:07:38,647 --> 03:07:41,283
And it's breaking down in carnage!

3217
03:07:41,984 --> 03:07:46,288
[Cole] What a slugfest by two of
the premier athletes in the world today.

3218
03:07:46,855 --> 03:07:49,358
[Corey] Spent and still swinging.

3219
03:07:51,960 --> 03:07:53,462
[Cole] And again!

3220
03:07:53,528 --> 03:07:55,063
[crowd cheering]

3221
03:07:59,001 --> 03:08:00,869
Superman Punch!

3222
03:08:00,936 --> 03:08:02,237
McIntyre on his feet.

3223
03:08:03,171 --> 03:08:05,107
Glasgow Kiss. Reigns on his feet.

3224
03:08:07,376 --> 03:08:09,144
Spear by McIntyre!

3225
03:08:10,312 --> 03:08:12,748
And McIntyre feels it!

3226
03:08:12,814 --> 03:08:15,784
Sixty-two thousand plus feel it!

3227
03:08:15,851 --> 03:08:18,287
The end of the reign! Claymore!

3228
03:08:19,254 --> 03:08:22,424
We're gonna crown a brand new champion!

3229
03:08:24,059 --> 03:08:25,827
[indistinct conversations]

3230
03:08:26,528 --> 03:08:30,866
[Cole] Somebody just yanked the official
out of the ring. McIntyre was gonna win.

3231
03:08:30,932 --> 03:08:32,701
Oh, my God.

3232
03:08:32,768 --> 03:08:33,835
[Corey] That's…

3233
03:08:34,970 --> 03:08:38,306
[Cole] Corey, that is Solo Sikoa.

3234
03:08:38,373 --> 03:08:40,809
The Uso's younger brother!

3235
03:08:40,876 --> 03:08:43,712
[Corey] The Street Champion,
the meanest of the bunch!

3236
03:08:43,779 --> 03:08:46,748
[Cole] The NXT standout,
Roman Reigns' cousin,

3237
03:08:46,815 --> 03:08:49,351
another member of the Anoa'i family.

3238
03:08:50,352 --> 03:08:51,720
[Corey] McIntyre's had enough,

3239
03:08:51,787 --> 03:08:54,356
but Solo hangs through across the top!

3240
03:08:54,423 --> 03:08:56,158
[Cole] Spear by Reigns!

3241
03:08:57,592 --> 03:08:59,728
The cover by Roman!

3242
03:09:01,430 --> 03:09:03,665
Thanks to The Bloodline.

3243
03:09:03,732 --> 03:09:06,735
-[bell dings]
-Roman Reigns retains the title.

3244
03:09:07,736 --> 03:09:09,771
[announcer] Here is your winner,

3245
03:09:09,838 --> 03:09:15,544
and still the Undisputed WWE

3246
03:09:15,610 --> 03:09:18,980
Universal Champion,

3247
03:09:19,047 --> 03:09:23,785
Roman Reigns!

3248
03:09:23,852 --> 03:09:26,355
[Cole] You have to know,
Roman had something up his sleeve.

3249
03:09:26,421 --> 03:09:31,960
[Corey] When it comes to The Bloodline,
they are as deep as they are dangerous.

3250
03:09:33,729 --> 03:09:38,166
And tonight, Roman Reigns retains.

3251
03:09:38,767 --> 03:09:41,169
[Cole] We thought it was over,
but Claymore,

3252
03:09:41,236 --> 03:09:44,072
McIntyre to climb
to the top of the mountain.

3253
03:09:44,139 --> 03:09:47,075
And then the official
was pulled out of the ring

3254
03:09:47,142 --> 03:09:52,581
by a man who would reveal himself to be
yet another member of The Bloodline.

3255
03:09:52,647 --> 03:09:56,451
The youngest brother
of the Tag Team Champions, the Usos.

3256
03:09:56,518 --> 03:10:00,522
Roman Reigns' cousin, Solo Sikoa.

3257
03:10:00,589 --> 03:10:03,425
And off that, the spear by Roman Reigns

3258
03:10:04,593 --> 03:10:06,128
to retain his title.

3259
03:10:07,863 --> 03:10:12,501
Seven hundred thirty-four days
and counting

3260
03:10:12,567 --> 03:10:18,340
for the Undisputed WWE
Universal Champion.

3261
03:10:18,874 --> 03:10:23,979
[Corey] Tonight, Roman Reigns
defiantly crossed enemy lines

3262
03:10:24,613 --> 03:10:30,585
and won the war for the Undisputed WWE

3263
03:10:30,652 --> 03:10:33,121
Universal Championship.

3264
03:10:33,188 --> 03:10:37,058
United Kingdom, acknowledge him.

3265
03:10:40,662 --> 03:10:43,498
[Cole] Sixty--
Uh-oh, wait a minute.

3266
03:10:47,669 --> 03:10:49,070
Tyson Fury.

3267
03:10:51,473 --> 03:10:53,508
[crowd cheering]

3268
03:11:21,369 --> 03:11:23,738
[crowd booing]

3269
03:11:23,805 --> 03:11:25,307
[Cole] A total respect.

3270
03:11:27,108 --> 03:11:30,979
Tyson Fury, the Lineal
Heavyweight Champion in the world.

3271
03:11:31,046 --> 03:11:35,817
[Corey] From one great champion
to another, period, respect.

3272
03:11:37,118 --> 03:11:41,289
[Cole] It has been an incredible week,
an incredible night

3273
03:11:42,224 --> 03:11:43,625
in Cardiff, Wales.

3274
03:11:48,096 --> 03:11:50,832
Roman Reigns survives.

3275
03:11:51,733 --> 03:11:54,903
Once again,
The Head of the Table had a plan.

3276
03:11:55,871 --> 03:12:01,610
And the 734-day reign
as champion will continue

3277
03:12:02,244 --> 03:12:03,912
For The Head of the Table,

3278
03:12:03,979 --> 03:12:05,447
for The Tribal Chief,

3279
03:12:06,248 --> 03:12:09,584
for perhaps one of the greatest champions

3280
03:12:09,651 --> 03:12:13,421
in the history of WWE, Roman Reigns.

3281
03:12:13,488 --> 03:12:15,724
[Corey] There's no perhaps about it, Cole.

3282
03:12:17,692 --> 03:12:20,695
[Saxton] The great ones always rise
to the occasion.

3283
03:12:21,763 --> 03:12:25,867
And when it seemed like
his championship status was in doubt,

3284
03:12:25,934 --> 03:12:28,470
once again, Reigns answers.

3285
03:12:30,105 --> 03:12:32,107
[inaudible]

3286
03:12:42,551 --> 03:12:47,689
[Cole] It's been 30 long years,
but UK, we are back with a vengeance.

3287
03:12:48,423 --> 03:12:51,860
You are looking live
at the beautiful Principality Stadium

3288
03:12:51,927 --> 03:12:54,095
in Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom.

3289
03:12:54,162 --> 03:12:59,901
Over 60,000 WWE fans
are packed inside

3290
03:12:59,968 --> 03:13:03,171
for Clash at the Castle.

3291
03:13:04,172 --> 03:13:06,508
["Run" playing]

3292
03:14:27,522 --> 03:14:30,558
[dramatic music]
Castle.
