[Michael] The man, the god, King Booker.

6
00:00:17,317 --> 00:00:19,887
[King Booker] This is my reign.

7
00:00:23,689 --> 00:00:28,529
At No Mercy, it will be
a Fatal 4-Way match for the world title.

8
00:00:29,429 --> 00:00:32,299
[commentator] Booker is screwed.
The king is screwed.

9
00:00:32,431 --> 00:00:35,434
As far as me laying down,
it's not gonna happen.

10
00:00:35,536 --> 00:00:36,870
[King Booker] Don't do this.

11
00:00:37,070 --> 00:00:39,138
[Michael] Here comes
the powerhouse Lashley.

12
00:00:39,306 --> 00:00:41,141
The throne of King Booker,

13
00:00:41,641 --> 00:00:44,211
could be open to Bobby Lashley.

14
00:00:46,146 --> 00:00:51,117
[Batista] I will reclaim
my world heavyweight title.

15
00:00:51,919 --> 00:00:55,955
[Michael] A Fatal 4-Way
for the World Heavyweight Championship.

16
00:00:56,056 --> 00:00:59,660
It's Lashley, Batista, Finlay, King Booker

17
00:00:59,793 --> 00:01:02,329
with the World Championship
on the line.

18
00:01:02,529 --> 00:01:04,530
[King Booker] It's time for No Mercy.

19
00:01:04,697 --> 00:01:06,833
No Mercy.

Making his way to the ring,
from Cameron, North Carolina,

50

weighing in at 236 pounds.

the hometown hero here tonight

53
00:03:00,914 --> 00:03:05,652
at No Mercy from just down the road
in Cameron, North Carolina.

54
00:03:05,719 --> 00:03:09,523
[JBL] He's here tonight, Michael,
with all his friends, all his family,

his girlfriends have probably
already found somebody else,

like most of them have.

57
00:03:13,527 --> 00:03:15,262
But he's here to settle a score.

00:03:15,328 --> 00:03:19,499
Who is the better North Cackalackian,
him or Gregory Helms?

["It's Time" playing]

60
00:03:28,375 --> 00:03:30,911
[announcer]
And from Raleigh, North Carolina,

61
00:03:30,977 --> 00:03:34,447
weighing in at 215 pounds,

62
00:03:34,548 --> 00:03:38,719
it's the longest reigning champion
in sports entertainment

63
00:03:39,286 --> 00:03:42,221
and the Cruiserweight Champion
of the world,

64
00:03:42,456 --> 00:03:44,658
Gregory Helms.

65
00:03:44,725 --> 00:03:47,327
[Michael] This rivalry really began
in a friendly way

66
00:03:47,427 --> 00:03:48,862
when these two were teenagers.

67
00:03:48,929 --> 00:03:52,399
But over the past few weeks,
"Whatever you can do, I can do better"

68
00:03:52,465 --> 00:03:55,435
has been the theme of the matches
between these two men.

69
00:03:55,535 --> 00:03:59,673
First, it was Matt Hardy and Gregory Helms
on SmackDown a month ago,

70
00:03:59,805 --> 00:04:02,242
referee did not see
the low blow from Helms.

71
00:04:02,409 --> 00:04:05,978
But a couple of weeks ago,
after Helms picked up this victory, JBL,

72
00:04:06,179 --> 00:04:09,448
Matt Hardy would make turnabout fair play.

73
00:04:09,548 --> 00:04:11,218
[JBL] And it's about damn time.

74
00:04:11,384 --> 00:04:13,619
The one problem
Matt Hardy has always had,

75
00:04:13,820 --> 00:04:15,922
he wants the fans to love him.

76
00:04:16,022 --> 00:04:21,027
Finally, he's realizing, winning
and losing is all that's important.

77
00:04:21,293 --> 00:04:23,729
[Michael] Both of these men
from right here in North Carolina.

78
00:04:23,796 --> 00:04:25,599
Gregory Helms,
the Cruiserweight Champion

79
00:04:25,664 --> 00:04:28,301
will not defend the title
here in this matchup.

80
00:04:28,368 --> 00:04:31,371
This has become
a extremely personal rivalry.

81
00:04:31,538 --> 00:04:35,275
Had the opportunity to speak
with Matt Hardy earlier this week, JBL,

82
00:04:35,375 --> 00:04:38,979
and he admits that Gregory Helms
can back up all the talk.

83
00:04:39,044 --> 00:04:41,948
But Helms has changed
over the past few years.

84
00:04:42,015 --> 00:04:43,316
He's become more cocky…

85
00:04:43,416 --> 00:04:44,918
-[bell ringing]
-…he's become more confident.

86
00:04:45,051 --> 00:04:46,853
He's alienated his friends.

87
00:04:46,953 --> 00:04:49,890
It's focused more on Helms
than anyone else.

88
00:04:49,955 --> 00:04:51,157
[JBL] And what that has developed,

89
00:04:51,591 --> 00:04:54,794
is the longest reigning champion
in sports entertainment.

90
00:04:54,861 --> 00:05:00,834
Helms has not lost
on a pay-per-view this year.

91
00:05:00,933 --> 00:05:02,669
You're talking about being on a roll,

92
00:05:02,902 --> 00:05:05,171
Gregory Helms is on a roll.

93
00:05:05,272 --> 00:05:07,707
[Michael] So, Helms and Hardy
collar and elbow tie up

94
00:05:07,808 --> 00:05:09,109
center of the ring to kick things off.

95
00:05:09,176 --> 00:05:13,046
Nice Fireman's Carry takedown by Matt--
I should say by Gregory Helms,

96
00:05:13,113 --> 00:05:16,282
the longest running
reigning cruiserweight champion

97
00:05:16,383 --> 00:05:18,885
in sports entertainment history.

98
00:05:19,919 --> 00:05:22,022
Hardy back across the ropes,
whipped across the ring,

99
00:05:22,087 --> 00:05:24,457
and a big shoulder
knockdown by Matt Hardy.

100
00:05:24,925 --> 00:05:27,561
It took Helms perhaps by surprise.

101
00:05:27,861 --> 00:05:31,364
Gregory Helms will tell you, JBL,
that he is the best.

102
00:05:31,464 --> 00:05:35,202
That he has moved so far ahead
of Matt Hardy in this rivalry

103
00:05:35,301 --> 00:05:37,837
-that there shouldn't even be competition.
-[crowd booing]

104
00:05:38,104 --> 00:05:41,541
[JBL] As big a fan I am of Gregory Helms,
I got to disagree with him.

105
00:05:41,775 --> 00:05:45,111
He's looking into the mirror right now.
These guys grew up together.

106
00:05:45,178 --> 00:05:49,049
These guys grew up doing this
right here in the backyard together.

107
00:05:49,149 --> 00:05:50,950
They grew up fighting each other.

108
00:05:51,084 --> 00:05:55,388
They are much more a carbon copy
than one being superior.

109
00:05:56,356 --> 00:05:58,859
[Michael] Takedown by Gregory Helms,
Matt Hardy will kick out of it.

110
00:05:59,159 --> 00:06:00,527
But still make the early going.

111
00:06:01,628 --> 00:06:03,597
Again, I'd like to thank
all of the SmackDown fans

112
00:06:03,697 --> 00:06:05,765

113
00:06:05,832 --> 00:06:09,870

[Michael] Matt Hardy chants
from the SmackDown fans here in Raleigh.

122
00:06:34,426 --> 00:06:36,996
Do you think it bothers
Gregory Helms that these fans

123
00:06:37,264 --> 00:06:40,267
are not showing him any support
despite the fact it's his home city?

124
00:06:40,599 --> 00:06:41,635
[JBL] Absolutely not.

125
00:06:41,734 --> 00:06:45,337
The one thing Gregory Helms
has had over Matt Hardy,

126
00:06:45,438 --> 00:06:47,573
we'll see if he still does,
is his ability--

127
00:06:47,707 --> 00:06:49,209
[Michael] Oh! There you go.

128
00:06:49,542 --> 00:06:50,676
That's his answer.

129
00:06:50,777 --> 00:06:54,614
[JBL] The ability to block out everything
except winning and losing.

130
00:06:54,681 --> 00:06:56,383
That is what has made him good.

131
00:06:56,448 --> 00:06:58,418
[Michael] There's no competitor
in sports entertainment

132
00:06:58,484 --> 00:07:00,287
that has held their championship longer

133
00:07:00,353 --> 00:07:03,657

than Gregory Helms has.

heard him yell, "This is my house."

00:07:12,933 --> 00:07:13,967
Is it his house?

139
00:07:14,099 --> 00:07:16,135
[JBL] Think about what you have
going on here, Michael.

140
00:07:16,202 --> 00:07:18,405
You have both guys,
their friends, their family,

141
00:07:18,738 --> 00:07:22,342
the people that both of them
grew up with are sitting here,

00:07:24,010 --> 00:07:25,811
Not to mention, the fans worldwide.

144
00:07:25,912 --> 00:07:28,948
But the sports bar these guys
go to tonight to have a cold beer

145
00:07:29,082 --> 00:07:31,784
after this match,
will be their friends there.

146
00:07:31,851 --> 00:07:35,055
Imagine losing a match
and going to face those people.

147
00:07:35,155 --> 00:07:36,489
[Michael] Elbow, cover, kickout at one,

148
00:07:36,556 --> 00:07:39,025
by the Cruiserweight Champion,
Gregory Helms.

-[crowd cheering]

151

[Michael] Matt Hardy measuring his man,
gonna fly, taking Helms out.

152
00:07:50,402 --> 00:07:52,438
That is right out
of Matt Hardy's playbook.

153
00:07:52,638 --> 00:07:55,941
It was right here in this building,
six years ago,

154
00:07:56,042 --> 00:07:57,609
that Matt Hardy and his brother Jeff

155
00:07:57,710 --> 00:08:00,313
competed in table,
ladders and chairs number two

156
00:08:00,412 --> 00:08:02,282
with the Dudley Boyz
and Edge and Christian.

157
00:08:02,414 --> 00:08:05,018
As we take another look
at the high flying Matt Hardy

158
00:08:05,085 --> 00:08:07,620
who has made a career
out of moves like these.

[crowd cheering]

160
00:08:11,191 --> 00:08:14,394
[JBL] It was also in this state, Michael,
right here in North Carolina

161
00:08:14,460 --> 00:08:16,996
that Matt Hardy and his brother Jeff
closed to win a title

162
00:08:17,397 --> 00:08:20,566
-against the APA.
-[crowd cheering]

163
00:08:20,933 --> 00:08:23,135
[Michael] Matt Hardy,
here's the cover, shoulders down,

164
00:08:23,269 --> 00:08:24,471
and Helms quickly got the shoulder up.

165
00:08:24,537 --> 00:08:26,840
[JBL] I've thought all along
Matt Hardy is a superstar,

166
00:08:26,905 --> 00:08:28,375
a main event waiting to happen.

167
00:08:28,441 --> 00:08:30,777
He has not broke
through that glass ceiling.

168
00:08:31,077 --> 00:08:33,112
This may be what it takes

169
00:08:33,446 --> 00:08:35,749
to take Matt Hardy to the next level.

170
00:08:35,814 --> 00:08:39,052
[Michael] And as we mentioned Matt Hardy
with the big right hands to Gregory Helms,

171
00:08:39,151 --> 00:08:43,023
both of these athletes are from here
in North Carolina, as Helms counters.

172
00:08:43,155 --> 00:08:45,025
[JBL] And how can you
forget North Carolina.

173
00:08:45,125 --> 00:08:49,762
North Carolina state, home of Jim Valvano,
but most importantly, North Cackalacky,

174
00:08:49,829 --> 00:08:54,233
the home of the chairman of the board,
Vincent Kennedy McMahon, your boss.

175
00:08:54,334 --> 00:08:56,669
[Michael] That's a shameless plug,
kissing up to the boss.

176
00:08:56,803 --> 00:08:59,039
[JBL] You should,
with your commentary skills.

177
00:08:59,105 --> 00:09:01,808
[Michael] Oh, look at that, neckbreaker
to the back of the knee.

178
00:09:01,875 --> 00:09:05,978
Here's the cover, hook to the leg
and Hardy kicking out at two.

179
00:09:06,813 --> 00:09:09,816
[JBL] You'd look good with a Kiss My Ass
Club if you already haven't done it.

180
00:09:10,350 --> 00:09:12,218
[Michael] But you do it every week
on the company jet.

181
00:09:12,285 --> 00:09:14,254
Whipped into the corner
goes Matt Hardy,

182
00:09:14,319 --> 00:09:17,891
and there's a high elbow
to the jaw, catching Helms.

183
00:09:18,558 --> 00:09:20,526
And Helms with a blow to the kidney.

184
00:09:20,693 --> 00:09:21,861
Out. Out!

185
00:09:22,161 --> 00:09:24,396
-Matt Hardy in trouble.
-[crowd cheering]

186
00:09:24,497 --> 00:09:27,467
[Michael] Wow. Both men
side Russian leg sweep,

187
00:09:27,567 --> 00:09:29,135
I believe, from the second rope.

188
00:09:29,202 --> 00:09:31,271
Helms may have injured himself as well.

189
00:09:31,337 --> 00:09:33,305
[JBL] Moves like that look great, Michael.

190
00:09:33,406 --> 00:09:37,043
But what it does is it injures the guy
giving it, as much as the guy taking it.

191
00:09:37,177 --> 00:09:40,980
[Michael] Watch this. The impact
of both skulls bouncing off the mat.

192
00:09:41,081 --> 00:09:43,850
Helms went for the cover
and Hardy kicked out at two.

193
00:09:46,986 --> 00:09:49,589
[JBL] What these two guys have done
by making this personal

194
00:09:49,656 --> 00:09:53,358
has elevated this feud
to an entire new level.

195
00:09:53,425 --> 00:09:54,861
I love it.

196
00:09:55,295 --> 00:09:57,396
This is what SmackDown is all about.

197
00:09:57,564 --> 00:09:58,598
[Michael] Look at this.

198
00:09:58,698 --> 00:10:02,401
Gregory helms locking both arms
as he just uses the knee

199
00:10:02,468 --> 00:10:03,837
to drive it into the temple.

200
00:10:03,903 --> 00:10:08,540
Here's the cover, again kickout at two,
a spinning kickout by Matt Hardy.

201
00:10:10,709 --> 00:10:12,812
When you talk a lot
about personal rivalries

202
00:10:12,911 --> 00:10:15,949
and there's gonna be two that we'll focus
on here tonight at No Mercy,

203
00:10:16,082 --> 00:10:17,851
that are more heated than any other, JBL,

204
00:10:17,916 --> 00:10:20,520
of course, the one in the ring now
and the one later on

205
00:10:20,620 --> 00:10:24,023
between Rey Mysterio
and Chavo Guerrero Falls Count Anywhere,

206
00:10:24,089 --> 00:10:26,126
does not get more heated than that.

207
00:10:26,192 --> 00:10:30,597
[JBL] Finally, a conclusive end
to a battle that started decades ago.

208
00:10:30,730 --> 00:10:35,834
Rey Mysterio's uncle was the first one
that gave Chavo Guerrero a job.

209
00:10:36,302 --> 00:10:40,540
[Michael] Gregory Helms--
Oh! Face to the knees of Matt Hardy.

210
00:10:40,973 --> 00:10:44,677
And Gregory Helms,
after he was slapping Matt Hardy around,

211
00:10:45,211 --> 00:10:47,213
just drove his knee
into the skull of Hardy.

212
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,482
This could be it.
Hook to the leg, shoulders down

213
00:10:49,549 --> 00:10:51,317
and somehow
Matt Hardy at two rolls out.

214
00:10:51,384 --> 00:10:56,055
And his frustration beginning to show,
perhaps, on the face of Gregory Helms.

215
00:10:56,222 --> 00:10:58,625
[JBL] He's the longest reigning
sports entertainment champion,

216
00:10:59,058 --> 00:11:00,360
period, right now.

217
00:11:00,459 --> 00:11:02,028
[Michael] That's a great point, JBL.

218
00:11:02,094 --> 00:11:05,765
But you know how much beating
Matt Hardy in North Carolina

219
00:11:05,832 --> 00:11:08,468
will lean to the ego of Gregory Helms,

220
00:11:08,568 --> 00:11:11,103
and what a loss
would be to his ego as well.

221
00:11:11,337 --> 00:11:13,640
[JBL] This isn't just professional,
you're right, Michael.

222
00:11:14,007 --> 00:11:17,410
This is about bragging rights
in your old neighborhood.

223
00:11:18,377 --> 00:11:22,148
They're gonna have to see these guys
at reunions for the rest of their lives.

224
00:11:22,214 --> 00:11:26,218
This match means the world
to both of these two guys.

225
00:11:26,286 --> 00:11:27,319
[Michael] Arm drag takedown

226
00:11:27,420 --> 00:11:31,591
and Gregory Helms with Hardy's left arm
in a precarious position.

227
00:11:31,658 --> 00:11:33,293
[JBL] You can't breathe
like that, Michael.

228
00:11:35,093 --> 00:11:36,795
[Michael] Hardy, you see him
trying to reach for the rope,

229
00:11:36,863 --> 00:11:38,097
but he is a ways away.

230
00:11:38,231 --> 00:11:41,501
[JBL] The longer Matt Hardy stays in that,
the less Matt Hardy is gonna have in him.

231
00:11:41,601 --> 00:11:42,635
[crowd chanting] Hardy! Hardy!

232
00:11:42,769 --> 00:11:45,538
[Michael] The Hardy chants begin again
from the SmackDown fans

233
00:11:45,637 --> 00:11:47,307
here at North Carolina State.

234
00:11:47,439 --> 00:11:49,175
Matt Hardy back to his feet,

235
00:11:50,175 --> 00:11:52,612
battling out, with the rights
and lefts to the abdomen.

236
00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:55,048
But every time Hardy tries
to mount a little bit of offense here,

237
00:11:55,147 --> 00:11:56,749
as of late, Helms counters.

238
00:11:57,350 --> 00:11:59,285
Now, look at this, up on the shoulder,

239
00:11:59,352 --> 00:12:02,288
Matt Hardy holding on to the top rope,
what's gonna give?

240
00:12:02,454 --> 00:12:04,290
Matt Hardy with a great counter.

241
00:12:04,457 --> 00:12:06,259
Now, can he take advantage?

242
00:12:08,962 --> 00:12:11,831
[Michael] It was a reverse DDT,
a counter from Matt Hardy.

243
00:12:11,897 --> 00:12:14,067
-Two!
-[JBL] It's like the old slop drop.

244
00:12:14,834 --> 00:12:17,837
Driving Gregory Helms' head
right into the mat.

245
00:12:17,904 --> 00:12:19,372
Helms doesn't know where he is.

246
00:12:20,305 --> 00:12:22,976
[Michael] Watch. Watch the head
of Gregory Helms…

247
00:12:23,509 --> 00:12:24,944
-[JBL] Look at this.
-[Michael] …off the mat.

248
00:12:26,579 --> 00:12:29,515
[JBL] I've been there, Michael,
it's like waking up in a different room.

249
00:12:29,582 --> 00:12:31,918
The light goes on
and you don't know where you are.

250
00:12:32,517 --> 00:12:34,853
[Michael] Helms and Hardy
exchanging rights.

251
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,689
And that one rocked Helms

252
00:12:36,756 --> 00:12:38,591
and that one rocked Matt Hardy.

253
00:12:39,125 --> 00:12:42,262
These two former friends,
now bitter rivals,

254
00:12:42,362 --> 00:12:45,765
beating the hell out of each other,
suddenly, Hardy has the upper hand.

255
00:12:45,964 --> 00:12:47,733
-And what a right!
-[JBL] Wow!

256
00:12:49,202 --> 00:12:50,903
[Michael] Matt Hardy with a clothesline,

257
00:12:51,670 --> 00:12:53,872
knocking Helms down for a second time.

258
00:12:53,973 --> 00:12:55,942
And you can feel the momentum shifting.

259
00:12:56,342 --> 00:12:58,645
[JBL] Helms hadn't recovered
from that slop drop.

260
00:13:00,713 --> 00:13:02,115
[Michael]
I think it was slight concussion.

261
00:13:02,848 --> 00:13:05,785
-Running bulldog from Matt Hardy.
-[crowd cheering]

262
00:13:06,185 --> 00:13:08,655
[Michael] Hardy crawls to the cover,
hooks the leg, shoulders down,

263
00:13:08,721 --> 00:13:10,323
there's two, and a kickout
at two and a half.

264
00:13:10,390 --> 00:13:12,625
-[JBL] Helms doesn't know where he is.
-[Michael] No, not at all.

265
00:13:13,259 --> 00:13:15,194
Watch the punch, watch the right hand.

266
00:13:16,462 --> 00:13:20,599
Wow. Helms may be on dream street,
to use the old phrase.

267
00:13:20,833 --> 00:13:23,403
[JBL] He's on dream street
and doesn't even know he's on it.

268
00:13:23,468 --> 00:13:25,170
[crowd cheering]

269
00:13:25,238 --> 00:13:27,540
[Michael] Helms in trouble,
Matt Hardy up to the second rope.

270
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,309
[crowd cheering]

271
00:13:29,375 --> 00:13:31,711
-[yells]
-[crowd cheering]

272
00:13:33,012 --> 00:13:36,149
[Michael] Listen to the support,
dropping the leg from the second rope.

273
00:13:36,315 --> 00:13:37,449
This one should be over.

274
00:13:37,516 --> 00:13:40,218
Matt Hardy into the cover,
hooks the leg, there's two.

275
00:13:40,353 --> 00:13:42,021
Did he, did he kickout? Yes, he did.

276
00:13:42,088 --> 00:13:44,057
-Helms kicked out at two and a half.
-[JBL] Pure instinct.

277
00:13:44,156 --> 00:13:46,992
This is what happens
when you're playing on pure instinct.

278
00:13:47,060 --> 00:13:48,861
And look at this,
Hardy needs to take him

279
00:13:48,928 --> 00:13:51,430
and he needs to take him now
if he wants to win this feud.

280
00:13:51,698 --> 00:13:53,699
Quit playing the damn people, Matt.

281
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,769
[Michael] Not playing to the people.
He was stalking his man. I beg to differ.

282
00:13:57,036 --> 00:13:59,839
But there's a great counter. Oh, wow!

283
00:13:59,906 --> 00:14:03,108
What a counter by Gregory Helms
into the cover.

284
00:14:03,175 --> 00:14:05,411
-[JBL] Pulled one out of the hat.
-[Michael] He crawls, hooks the leg.

285
00:14:05,478 --> 00:14:07,546
-Two, he-- Two and a half.
-[crowd cheering]

286
00:14:07,613 --> 00:14:09,214
[Michael] A kickout by Matt Hardy.

287
00:14:09,348 --> 00:14:11,884
Another near fall in this matchup.

288
00:14:11,950 --> 00:14:14,887
[crowd chanting] Hardy! Hardy! Hardy!

289
00:14:14,954 --> 00:14:17,824
[JBL] That's why he's been the champion
for so long, Michael.

290
00:14:17,890 --> 00:14:21,661
[Michael] Again, a second time
driving Hardy's skull to the mat.

291
00:14:21,794 --> 00:14:25,131
This time into the cover,
and again, Matt Hardy kicked out.

292
00:14:25,198 --> 00:14:26,733
And at some point,

293
00:14:26,866 --> 00:14:31,270
frustration has got to creep
into the mind of Gregory Helms.

294
00:14:31,603 --> 00:14:33,171
[JBL] Michael,
look at what he's come through.

295
00:14:33,238 --> 00:14:34,774
He's basically knocked out.

296
00:14:34,873 --> 00:14:36,943
He's knocked--
He's almost finished off…

297
00:14:37,009 --> 00:14:39,478
-[Michael] And third time.
-…Matt Hardy twice and he's got him.

298
00:14:39,878 --> 00:14:42,548
-[Michael] An almost backwards DDT.
-[JBL] Call your mama.

299
00:14:42,615 --> 00:14:44,584
Find a fat lady and make her sing.

300
00:14:44,884 --> 00:14:48,353
[Michael] For a third time
driving Matt Hardy's skull into the mat.

301
00:14:48,521 --> 00:14:50,790
Gregory Helms believes the end is near.

302
00:14:50,857 --> 00:14:53,025
And Helms does not like to fly often

303
00:14:53,159 --> 00:14:55,594
which is uncharacteristic
of a cruiserweight champion,

304
00:14:55,795 --> 00:14:57,597
but it looks like he's gonna fly now.

305
00:14:58,030 --> 00:15:00,199
[JBL] He wants
to finish him off with a bang.

306
00:15:00,299 --> 00:15:03,301
This is nothing but ego
right here in his hometown.

307
00:15:03,368 --> 00:15:04,569
[Michael] Oh, Matt Hardy caught him,

308
00:15:04,637 --> 00:15:06,305
took way too much time, did Helms.

309
00:15:06,372 --> 00:15:09,541
-Matt Hardy, Side Effect.
-[crowd cheering]

310
00:15:09,709 --> 00:15:11,411
[Michael] Into the cover.
This could be it.

311
00:15:11,477 --> 00:15:14,514
There's two, and at two and a half
Helms rolls that shoulder up.

312
00:15:14,646 --> 00:15:17,617
-[JBL] What a matchup.
-[Michael] To kick off No Mercy.

313
00:15:18,718 --> 00:15:21,753
-[JBL] Helms will not quit.
-[Michael] Neither will Hardy.

314
00:15:21,853 --> 00:15:23,488
Another Side Effect by Matt Hardy.

315
00:15:23,555 --> 00:15:25,290
Into the cover again, hook to the leg

316
00:15:25,358 --> 00:15:26,759
-Not this time.
-[JBL] Oh, my God.

317
00:15:26,892 --> 00:15:29,094
-[Michael] The second time.
-[JBL] What a matchup.

318
00:15:29,161 --> 00:15:31,197
-[Michael] Helms has kicked out.
-[JBL] Two guys with nothing

319
00:15:31,296 --> 00:15:32,931
but pride right now.

320
00:15:33,232 --> 00:15:35,401
How proud are you of Gregory Helms?

321
00:15:35,468 --> 00:15:37,002
[Michael] Just like Helms did moments ago,

322
00:15:37,069 --> 00:15:40,540
Matt Hardy now with a trifecta,
this time with the Side Effect

323
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,775
looking to put Gregory Helms away.

324
00:15:42,875 --> 00:15:46,245
Matt Hardy to the top rope, the moonsault,

325
00:15:46,312 --> 00:15:50,315
and Gregory Helms got his knees
up in time to the gut of Hardy.

326
00:15:52,517 --> 00:15:55,755
Went for the Shining Wizard,
Hardy rolls him up, shoulders down.

327
00:15:56,055 --> 00:15:57,423
Did he get him, did he get him?

328
00:15:57,490 --> 00:15:59,091
-[JBL] No.
-[Michael] No. A kickout at two.

329
00:16:00,660 --> 00:16:02,795
Matt Hardy almost stuck one in.

330
00:16:03,663 --> 00:16:05,865
Gregory Helms counters to a backdrop.

331
00:16:07,766 --> 00:16:09,334
Shining Wizard, this time connects.

332
00:16:09,401 --> 00:16:10,402
[JBL] That's it.

-[JBL] Gregory Helms!

[Michael] …is gonna win it
as he hooks the leg and--

335
00:16:15,074 --> 00:16:16,508
Matt Hardy again kicked out.

336
00:16:16,575 --> 00:16:19,512
How the hell is Matt Hardy
continuing to kickout?

337
00:16:19,712 --> 00:16:23,382
[JBL] This right here, or these two guys,
just shining moment,

338
00:16:23,449 --> 00:16:25,184
defining moment in their career.

339
00:16:25,351 --> 00:16:28,854
They have everything at stake--
more at stake today, Michael,

340
00:16:28,954 --> 00:16:31,022
than they have ever had
in their entire life.

341
00:16:31,357 --> 00:16:33,992
This is not about titles,
this is not about money,

342
00:16:34,060 --> 00:16:37,396
this is about common pride and that's all.

343
00:16:37,463 --> 00:16:41,334
[Michael] Proving who is the best
between longtime rivals, former friends.

344
00:16:41,901 --> 00:16:45,338
[JBL] And both wanna finish it
with an exclamation point.

345

[Michael] Matt Hardy with a right hand
to the side of the head of Gregory Helms,

346
00:16:48,507 --> 00:16:49,541
there's a headbutt.

347
00:16:49,608 --> 00:16:53,045
What a way to start things off
here tonight at No Mercy.

348
00:16:53,545 --> 00:16:57,449
Matt Hardy top rope,
Gregory Helms counters and hangs Hardy up.

349
00:16:57,617 --> 00:17:00,953
And that may be the opening Helms needs.

00:17:02,787 --> 00:17:04,890
[crowd chatter]

351
00:17:04,956 --> 00:17:07,326
[Michael] Matt Hardy
is in all kinds of trouble, JBL.

352
00:17:07,393 --> 00:17:08,661
This does not look good.

353
00:17:08,728 --> 00:17:10,530
What is Gregory Helms gonna do here?

354
00:17:10,829 --> 00:17:12,665
-[JBL] It's an opportunity.
-[Michael] Top rope.

it looked like,

357

catching Hardy in the back of the head.

Matt Hardy, he got his…

360
00:17:22,508 --> 00:17:24,076
-[JBL] You kidding me.
-…foot on the bottom rope.

361
00:17:24,342 --> 00:17:27,579
-[crowd cheering]
-[Michael] The instinct of Matt Hardy.

362
00:17:28,414 --> 00:17:29,682
Pure instinct.

363
00:17:30,316 --> 00:17:32,784
To know where he is
in the ring at all times.

364
00:17:33,719 --> 00:17:36,155
[JBL] It's not insprink,
it was a desperate measure.

365
00:17:36,322 --> 00:17:38,390
[Michael] No. Instinct not insprink.
And look at this.

366
00:17:38,456 --> 00:17:40,659
-[JBL] Oh, like you're a grammarian.
-[Michael] Standing switch.

367

Referee Jimmy Korderas
ducks out of the way.

368
00:17:43,129 --> 00:17:46,831
Matt Hardy, kick to the midsection,
Twist of Fate! The Twist of Fate.

369
00:17:47,233 --> 00:17:50,336
Matt Hardy quickly to the cover,
shoulders down, hook to the leg.

What a way to have the whole damn show.

Somebody call the sheriff.

380
00:18:13,158 --> 00:18:17,396
These guys just stole
Raleigh, North Carolina.

383
00:18:22,068 --> 00:18:23,970
for the victorious Matt Hardy.

384
00:18:24,971 --> 00:18:28,274
And there's Matt Hardy's family
and friends at ringside.

-Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
-It was déjà vu all over again

in my estimation for Matt Hardy.

[JBL] I call it an upset, Michael,
and that's not understating the obvious

Gregory Helms has been undefeated
this entire year on pay-per-view.

in sports entertainment, period.

your old chum to stand aside.

for fighting for one night.

tonight to be my ally

Because Regal is now off
on this royal crusade, so to speak.

it's Katie Bar the freaking door,
and all hell will break lose.

Lashley could be champion.

If I'd have walked out
with something hot like that, holy cow.

467

I'd still be wrestling

468
00:22:57,543 --> 00:23:00,312

with that little midget doing commentary.

Holy cow, that's a camera angle.

about both of these teams.

501
00:24:31,637 --> 00:24:33,504
First, London and Kendrick,
they have a number of--

502
00:24:33,572 --> 00:24:36,475
a lot of experience
under the belt in pay-per-views,

503
00:24:36,575 --> 00:24:38,310
whereas the challengers do not.

504
00:24:38,577 --> 00:24:41,981
[JBL] London and Kendrick
have that one intangible that fans love,

505
00:24:42,548 --> 00:24:45,551
can win you matches
but also shortens your career.

506
00:24:45,617 --> 00:24:48,754
They're unbelievable,
unabated risk takers.

507
00:24:48,821 --> 00:24:51,189
They love to fly
and put their body at risk.

508
00:24:51,357 --> 00:24:53,859
It's like watching NASCAR
without a restricted plate.

509
00:24:54,025 --> 00:24:56,695
There's gonna be a car wreck
when these guys are in the arena.

510
00:24:56,762 --> 00:24:58,330
[Michael] Oh, look at this. Paul London.

511
00:24:58,597 --> 00:25:01,133
-[JBL] Early on.
-[Michael] Head scissors by Paul London.

512
00:25:01,367 --> 00:25:02,900
Quick tag made to Brian Kendrick.

513
00:25:02,967 --> 00:25:05,004
And London and Kendrick
are so effective, JBL,

514
00:25:05,270 --> 00:25:07,872
when they can tag each other
in and out frequently.

515
00:25:07,939 --> 00:25:11,043
Keep each other fresh
for those high flying double team tactics.

516
00:25:11,243 --> 00:25:12,444
Here is the cover, hook to the leg.

517
00:25:12,511 --> 00:25:15,114
[JBL] Why don't you call it teamwork?
It's called a tag team, Michael.

518
00:25:15,179 --> 00:25:16,281
[Michael] Well, you know all about it,

519
00:25:16,381 --> 00:25:19,551
former Tag Team Champion
yourself with Faarooq, the APA.

520
00:25:19,618 --> 00:25:21,587
[JBL] Three-time tag team champion.

521
00:25:22,221 --> 00:25:24,689
They remind me
of a young Edge and Christian,

522
00:25:24,756 --> 00:25:26,457
a young Matt and Jeff Hardy,

523
00:25:26,658 --> 00:25:28,593
a young Steve and Shaun Simpson.

524
00:25:28,827 --> 00:25:32,697
These guys quite honestly
got everything going for them right now.

525
00:25:32,764 --> 00:25:34,332
[Michael] And a quick tag
to Brian Kendrick.

526
00:25:34,399 --> 00:25:38,137
Paul London, here's the double team,
we talked about teamwork, as JBL said.

527
00:25:38,203 --> 00:25:42,908
Cross body, off the release by London
and a kickout at two as Ashley looks on.

528
00:25:43,274 --> 00:25:45,077
[JBL] And the one thing
I dare to say they have,

529
00:25:45,144 --> 00:25:46,979
the intangible advantage

530
00:25:47,178 --> 00:25:51,116
that James and Idol have,
is Michelle McCool.

531
00:25:51,183 --> 00:25:54,319
You have the hot Ashley,
and she is smoking,

532
00:25:54,553 --> 00:25:57,056
but Michelle McCool
is actually the manager,

533
00:25:57,121 --> 00:25:59,425
the brain behind Idol and James.

534
00:25:59,591 --> 00:26:01,592
[Michael] And here is Kasey James

535
00:26:01,726 --> 00:26:03,328
-looking to wear down the much smaller…
-Come on, Kasey.

536
00:26:03,428 --> 00:26:05,030
…Brian Kendrick. James hauled up.

537
00:26:05,264 --> 00:26:08,634
London and Kendrick,
a very cute little tag team last week,

538
00:26:08,833 --> 00:26:10,601
not too cute now off the double team.

539
00:26:10,803 --> 00:26:12,104
[JBL] Paul London quickly
into the cover.

540
00:26:12,170 --> 00:26:14,372
Hook to the leg and a kickout at two.

541
00:26:14,439 --> 00:26:16,308
The longer this match goes,
who does it favor?

542
00:26:16,375 --> 00:26:19,011
[JBL] The longer this match goes,
the more it favors London and Kendrick

543
00:26:19,078 --> 00:26:21,480
for the simple fact they've been there.
They've done this.

544
00:26:21,547 --> 00:26:23,615
-[Michael] Blind tag.
-[JBL] Idol and James,

545
00:26:23,682 --> 00:26:25,184
as good as they are at times,

546
00:26:25,250 --> 00:26:29,922
still show signs of greenness,
still show signs of being rookies.

547
00:26:30,222 --> 00:26:32,624
They're gonna be great stars
but right now, Michael,

548
00:26:32,691 --> 00:26:35,526
the longer this goes,
the more it favors London and Kendrick.

549
00:26:35,593 --> 00:26:37,663
[Michael] Yeah, Paul London
and Brian Kendrick

550
00:26:38,629 --> 00:26:40,999
have cleared out the ring
of the challengers.

551
00:26:41,066 --> 00:26:42,101
[JBL] What the hell was that?

552
00:26:42,167 --> 00:26:43,870
[Michael] I've no idea.
But I can tell you that was.

553
00:26:43,946 --> 00:26:46,105
[JBL] Holy cow,
I told you, it's a car wreck.

554
00:26:46,170 --> 00:26:49,341
Pull the restrictive plates off,
crash into a wall.

555
00:26:49,475 --> 00:26:52,610
[Michael] London and Kendrick
taking James and Stevens out.

556
00:26:52,910 --> 00:26:54,913
I'll tell you, how much
could Kendrick and London

557
00:26:54,980 --> 00:26:56,447
love being tag team champions?

558
00:26:56,548 --> 00:26:57,949
[JBL] Absolutely love it.

559
00:26:58,884 --> 00:27:00,085
[Michael] Off the suplex.

560
00:27:00,953 --> 00:27:03,889
Brian Kendrick--
Well, I believe Charles Robinson

561
00:27:03,956 --> 00:27:06,758
is doing the right thing,
but by turning his back,

562
00:27:07,024 --> 00:27:08,860
London was knocked off the top rope.

563
00:27:08,927 --> 00:27:12,531
London is the legal man, the referee
sending Kendrick back to his corner

564
00:27:12,598 --> 00:27:15,333
but it allowed James and Stevens
to take advantage.

565
00:27:15,399 --> 00:27:17,235
[JBL] Yeah, but did you see
that fall, Michael?

566
00:27:17,369 --> 00:27:20,105
He didn't catch himself at all,
landing flat on his back.

567
00:27:20,172 --> 00:27:21,506
Ashley and Michelle
waiting in the wings.

568
00:27:21,572 --> 00:27:23,509
[Michael] Cover--
Tag team titles on the line.

569
00:27:23,574 --> 00:27:24,877
Kickout at two.

570
00:27:26,778 --> 00:27:28,547
[JBL] Smart. Smart.

571
00:27:29,081 --> 00:27:30,215
[Michael] Look at this.

572
00:27:32,684 --> 00:27:34,418
And there is Michelle McCool

573
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,889
baiting Paul London with a yardstick.

574
00:27:36,989 --> 00:27:38,924
It allowed James
to sneak up from behind.

575
00:27:39,057 --> 00:27:41,326
Well, let's get back to the point
I was making earlier, JBL.

576
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,862
Will the lack of experience
in big spotlight situations

577
00:27:44,929 --> 00:27:48,766
like this No Mercy pay-per-view,
hurt Stevens and Kasey James.

578
00:27:48,833 --> 00:27:51,637
[JBL] Absolutely.
And it favors London and Kendrick.

579
00:27:51,736 --> 00:27:53,004
They've been here, they've done that.

580
00:27:53,071 --> 00:27:55,506
They've been in tough matches.
They've had to pull it out.

581
00:27:55,841 --> 00:27:57,042
The longer this goes,

582
00:27:57,109 --> 00:27:59,410
the more it is in favor
of London and Kendrick.

583
00:27:59,477 --> 00:28:01,245
[Michael] Paul London needs
to make a tag

584
00:28:01,379 --> 00:28:03,314
but he's in the wrong corner,
wrong ropes.

585
00:28:03,381 --> 00:28:05,283
Idol Stevens continues the pressure.

586
00:28:05,417 --> 00:28:07,418
This is what Stevens and James have to do.

587
00:28:07,485 --> 00:28:09,955
They have to isolate London
from his partner,

588
00:28:10,188 --> 00:28:11,956
wear him down, take advantage.

589
00:28:13,125 --> 00:28:14,793
James' knee to the spine.

590
00:28:14,860 --> 00:28:16,962
You always got
to understand though, Michael,

591
00:28:17,029 --> 00:28:19,031
there's a chance that one of these guys--

592
00:28:19,097 --> 00:28:21,800
[Michael] Into the cover,
hook to the leg, kickout at two.

593
00:28:21,934 --> 00:28:24,168
[JBL] Talk about London and Kendrick
crashing and burning.

594
00:28:24,235 --> 00:28:28,072
And if they do, Idol and James
need to have enough common sense

595
00:28:28,473 --> 00:28:29,975
to take them right then.

596
00:28:30,108 --> 00:28:32,778
[Michael] Well, right, you made a point,
after James delivered the knees

597
00:28:32,843 --> 00:28:34,146
to the spine of Paul London,

598
00:28:34,213 --> 00:28:36,948
instead of strutting around
like Ric Flair here at North Carolina,

599
00:28:37,014 --> 00:28:39,717
he should have went for the cover
and try to win the tag team titles.

600
00:28:40,052 --> 00:28:41,687
[JBL] It's typical of young guys, Michael,

601
00:28:41,753 --> 00:28:43,589
they're ate up with wall to wall dumbass.

602
00:28:43,655 --> 00:28:46,058
Sometimes, these new guys
have got a lot of ability.

603
00:28:46,124 --> 00:28:49,595
They got to figure it out
to win championships.

604
00:28:51,196 --> 00:28:53,031
[Michael] SmackDown fans coming alive.

605
00:28:53,232 --> 00:28:56,134
Kasey James clubbing blow
to the back of the neck of London.

606
00:28:57,803 --> 00:29:00,805
[JBL] And remember, I told you
the intangible is Michelle McCool.

607
00:29:01,206 --> 00:29:03,341
She is the one who caused the problem.

608
00:29:03,408 --> 00:29:05,711
[Michael] Here's the cover up
off the knee to the spine.

609
00:29:05,843 --> 00:29:06,878
Kickout at two by London.

610
00:29:06,945 --> 00:29:10,182
Remember, ladies and gentlemen,
the WWE tag team titles

611
00:29:10,249 --> 00:29:12,583
held by London and Kendrick
are on the line.

612
00:29:12,783 --> 00:29:14,820
[JBL] And boy,
when she causes problems for me

613
00:29:14,886 --> 00:29:16,655
about 50 per cent
of the divorce settlement.

614
00:29:16,822 --> 00:29:17,923
It might be worth it.

615
00:29:18,023 --> 00:29:20,225
-[Michael] Well, what about Ashley?
-[JBL] Yeah. She's-- Oh, she's hot.

616
00:29:20,292 --> 00:29:22,293
I'm gonna give Ashley
some credit as well.

617
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,730
Did you see her in the latest
WWE magazine with Maria?

618
00:29:24,963 --> 00:29:26,264
Talk about smoking.

619
00:29:26,331 --> 00:29:28,399
[JBL] I didn't just look at the picture.
I memorized it.

620
00:29:30,002 --> 00:29:32,704
[Michael] And Stevens
plans to wear down London…

621
00:29:32,771 --> 00:29:34,372
[JBL] Settle down or…

622
00:29:34,473 --> 00:29:37,509
…with the abdominal stretch
or at least a version of it.

623
00:29:39,444 --> 00:29:42,947
Brian Kendrick really wants to get in,
or needs to get into the matchup.

624
00:29:43,447 --> 00:29:45,783
Look at the intensity
on the face of Stevens.

625
00:29:45,917 --> 00:29:48,786
You don't think Stevens realizes
what's on the line here tonight

626
00:29:48,919 --> 00:29:51,456
and what a win would do
for his teammates' career?

627
00:29:51,990 --> 00:29:54,259
[JBL] When you got a gal like this,
Michael, you're riding.

628
00:29:54,726 --> 00:29:57,763
London is hurt. He hadn't caught
his breath when he took that spill.

629
00:29:57,829 --> 00:30:01,066
Right now is where you lay on
and you ride and you wear him out.

630
00:30:03,568 --> 00:30:06,504
[Michael] Paul London slides
underneath Idol Stevens

631
00:30:06,571 --> 00:30:08,506
who's looking to try and isolate,

632
00:30:08,572 --> 00:30:11,109
keep London from the corner
and his partner.

633
00:30:11,310 --> 00:30:13,712
Great tactic by Stevens.

634
00:30:14,545 --> 00:30:18,350
[JBL] The key to tag team wrestling,
Michael, is to keep your opponent

635
00:30:18,417 --> 00:30:22,020
halfway through the ring
to your partner's side.

636
00:30:22,087 --> 00:30:25,557
[Michael] And a cover shot, half--
And a kick out at two by London again.

637
00:30:25,624 --> 00:30:27,059
[JBL] And that's what they're doing.

638
00:30:27,125 --> 00:30:29,494
That's what James
and Idol are doing.

639
00:30:29,561 --> 00:30:34,065
They are keeping London occupied,
away from Kendrick.

640
00:30:34,499 --> 00:30:36,033
[Michael] Another near fall
for this matchup.

641
00:30:36,101 --> 00:30:38,235
You got to be impressed,
at least up to that point,

642
00:30:38,503 --> 00:30:40,405
with Stevens and James.

643
00:30:40,938 --> 00:30:43,108
[JBL] Stevens and James
have a lot going for them.

644
00:30:43,274 --> 00:30:44,842
Tonight could be their night.

645
00:30:45,010 --> 00:30:46,578
[Michael] Stevens sent through
the second rope,

646
00:30:46,778 --> 00:30:49,113
Paul London-- Look at London,
look at the intensity,

647
00:30:49,180 --> 00:30:51,416
trying to drag James
across the ring and look at this.

648
00:30:51,649 --> 00:30:54,852
A cheap shot by Stevens
pulling Kendrick off the apron.

649
00:30:54,985 --> 00:30:56,754
A tag would've been made there.

650
00:30:57,621 --> 00:30:59,925
[JBL] That was smart. That's a tag team.

651
00:31:00,024 --> 00:31:01,827
That is how a tag team works.

652
00:31:01,927 --> 00:31:04,596
[Michael] And watch,
look at the double team on Paul London.

653
00:31:05,097 --> 00:31:06,831
London with a kick to the chops.

654
00:31:10,356 --> 00:31:11,636
[JBL] Look at London, he makes the tag.

655
00:31:11,736 --> 00:31:13,237
-[Michael] And here comes Kendrick.
-[JBL] Showtime.

656
00:31:13,638 --> 00:31:15,407
[Michael] Kendrick, the fresh man.

657
00:31:15,506 --> 00:31:17,042
[JBL] Watch the guy fly.

658
00:31:17,242 --> 00:31:20,846
[Michael] When Kendrick's in the ring,
John, it's like a demolition derby.

659
00:31:21,446 --> 00:31:23,581
It's like playing bumper cars
at the carnival.

660
00:31:23,715 --> 00:31:26,685
[JBL] It's like a demolition derby
with a Chinese acrobat.

661
00:31:26,818 --> 00:31:30,254
You gotta love this young man,
as crazy as he is.

662
00:31:30,455 --> 00:31:32,791
-[Michael] Brian Kendrick--
-[JBL] He is exciting.

663
00:31:32,858 --> 00:31:36,328
[Michael] Stevens and James
with the tag team titles up for grabs.

664
00:31:38,263 --> 00:31:39,531
Oh, look at Stevens.

665
00:31:39,598 --> 00:31:42,934
Smart. Shaking that top rope
did not allow Kendrick--

666
00:31:43,033 --> 00:31:44,668
-Look at Paul London!
-[JBL] God!

667
00:31:44,735 --> 00:31:46,538
[Michael] A missile
through the second rope.

668
00:31:46,605 --> 00:31:47,738
[JBL] Oh, my God.

669
00:31:47,805 --> 00:31:50,341
[Michael] Paul London
taking out Idol Stevens.

670
00:31:52,843 --> 00:31:55,213
Meanwhile in the ring,
Kendrick and James--

671
00:31:55,447 --> 00:31:56,881
Brian Kendrick in trouble,

672
00:31:56,947 --> 00:32:01,119
James may break him in half
off the top rope with that superplex.

673
00:32:01,753 --> 00:32:03,522
James crawling toward the cover.

674
00:32:03,588 --> 00:32:05,322
Tag team titles on the line.

675
00:32:05,389 --> 00:32:06,425
Hook to the leg,

676
00:32:06,591 --> 00:32:10,128
Paul London, the wherewithal
to break up the three count.

677
00:32:10,195 --> 00:32:12,863
Paul London is everywhere. Watch this.

678
00:32:14,599 --> 00:32:17,601
[JBL] Michael, I told you,
these are the most exciting two wrestlers

679
00:32:17,702 --> 00:32:21,372
I have seen on SmackDown WWE
in a decade.

680
00:32:21,439 --> 00:32:24,543
They love to fly,
they're gonna crash and burn one day.

681
00:32:24,876 --> 00:32:27,946
But until they do,
I'm gonna enjoy the hell out of them.

682
00:32:28,413 --> 00:32:30,849
[Michael] Idol Stevens into the ring,
runs into his own partner.

683
00:32:31,449 --> 00:32:32,583
Brian Kendrick.

684
00:32:34,052 --> 00:32:36,655
There goes Stevens, planting James,

685
00:32:36,721 --> 00:32:38,790
as Kendrick into the cover

686
00:32:38,924 --> 00:32:41,493
and Michelle McCool just put

687
00:32:42,427 --> 00:32:46,564
James' leg on the bottom rope,
and there's McCool paying dividends.

688
00:32:46,831 --> 00:32:48,065
[JBL] Boy, is she.

689
00:32:48,132 --> 00:32:50,802
[Michael] And Ashley trying to explain
to Charles Robinson.

690
00:32:51,101 --> 00:32:54,171
The referee never saw
Stevens' illegal involvement

691
00:32:54,539 --> 00:32:55,740
knee to the back.

692
00:32:56,608 --> 00:33:00,212
Oh, don't tell me Stevens
and James are gonna steal this here,

693
00:33:00,278 --> 00:33:01,513
thanks to McCool.

694
00:33:01,580 --> 00:33:03,081
Here's James in the cover--

695
00:33:03,247 --> 00:33:05,984
tag team title is on the line
and Kendrick kicked out.

696
00:33:07,418 --> 00:33:09,987
Well, Ashley was arguing
with the referee when this happened.

697
00:33:13,625 --> 00:33:15,827
Brian Kendrick is in trouble, JBL,

698
00:33:15,894 --> 00:33:18,863
in deep trouble as he tries
to battle out of his predicament.

699
00:33:18,964 --> 00:33:21,332
And there's Michelle
getting involved again.

700
00:33:22,929 --> 00:33:24,503
[JBL] And she just had a problem
with her top.

701
00:33:24,735 --> 00:33:26,404
I think she has
a wardrobe malfunction.

702
00:33:26,471 --> 00:33:27,639
Holy cow. She does.

703
00:33:27,738 --> 00:33:31,042
[Michael] Ashley!
Ashley from behind, taking on Michelle.

704
00:33:31,109 --> 00:33:32,776
[crowd cheering]

705
00:33:33,144 --> 00:33:34,812
[Michael] Ashley beating the hell
out of Michelle McCool

706
00:33:34,879 --> 00:33:37,849
-and McCool deserved it.
-[JBL] Don't hurt her face.

707
00:33:39,851 --> 00:33:40,886
[Michael] Look at this.

708
00:33:41,553 --> 00:33:44,255
Oh, look at the double team,
but Paul London's back to the ring

709
00:33:44,889 --> 00:33:46,291
helping his partner is out.

710
00:33:46,491 --> 00:33:49,194
Launching Kendrick,
taking out both men.

711
00:33:51,663 --> 00:33:55,065
How innovative
are these two tag team champions?

712
00:33:55,166 --> 00:33:58,270
The Sliced Bread, London--
Wow, what a moonsault.

713
00:33:58,904 --> 00:34:00,504
Here's the cover,
hook to the leg.

714
00:34:00,572 --> 00:34:01,740
[crowd cheering]

715
00:34:01,805 --> 00:34:04,442
[Michael] Tag team title
still with London and Kendrick.

716
00:34:04,842 --> 00:34:06,011
What a match up.

717
00:34:06,077 --> 00:34:08,246
[JBL] A Northern Light
is what it was, Michael.

718
00:34:08,313 --> 00:34:13,451
[announcer] Here are your winners
and still WWE tag team champions,

719
00:34:13,685 --> 00:34:16,554
Paul London and Brian Kendrick.

720
00:34:16,654 --> 00:34:17,956
[Michael] Is that what it was?
Northern Light?

721
00:34:18,056 --> 00:34:19,156
[JBL] A Northern Light, Michael.

722
00:34:19,223 --> 00:34:22,594
When you do something nobody else does
in the history of this business,

723
00:34:22,661 --> 00:34:23,929
you've done something.

724
00:34:23,995 --> 00:34:27,966
Paul London doing another Northern Light
on someone else's back

725
00:34:28,065 --> 00:34:30,268
is something that's never been done.

726
00:34:30,502 --> 00:34:32,002
-[Michael] Idol Stevens is…
-[JBL] Phenomenal.

727
00:34:32,069 --> 00:34:34,438
…extremely upset
but the bottom line is this,

728
00:34:34,706 --> 00:34:37,042
London and Kendrick continue to impress.

729
00:34:37,107 --> 00:34:38,676
They get better each and every week.

730
00:34:38,877 --> 00:34:41,313
They knocked off the competition
each and every week

731
00:34:41,379 --> 00:34:45,016
and they remain tag team champions
for a fifth straight month.

732
00:34:45,116 --> 00:34:48,353
[JBL] And give an assist to Ashley,
she did what I wanted to do

733
00:34:48,420 --> 00:34:50,388
and that's hop on top of Michelle McCool.

734
00:34:50,455 --> 00:34:52,257
[Michael] But Ashley did it
a lot more viciously.

735
00:34:52,324 --> 00:34:54,359
Michelle McCool had this coming,

736
00:34:54,426 --> 00:34:57,962
taking Michelle McCool
out of the equation evened the odds.

737
00:34:58,129 --> 00:34:59,663
And here is what we're talking about.

738
00:34:59,864 --> 00:35:01,466
-[JBL] Look at this.
-[Michael] Here is the double team.

739
00:35:02,933 --> 00:35:06,104
Well, watch Kendrick now
with the Slice Bread #2.

740
00:35:06,337 --> 00:35:09,641
And after this, the Northern Light
you were talking about.

741
00:35:10,174 --> 00:35:11,743
[JBL] Holy cow.

742
00:35:13,778 --> 00:35:16,848
[Michael] London and Kendrick,
how impressive are these guys?

743
00:35:16,915 --> 00:35:18,850
[JBL] These guys are exciting.

744
00:35:18,917 --> 00:35:22,886
They remind me of the old APA,
flying around everywhere.

745
00:35:29,761 --> 00:35:31,997
Excuse me, gentlemen,
have you seen Finlay anywhere?

746
00:35:32,397 --> 00:35:33,964
-No.
-Irish fellow, smells of Guinness.

747
00:35:34,031 --> 00:35:35,299
No, sorry.

748
00:35:36,768 --> 00:35:39,671
[exhales] Excuse me, young man,
have you seen Finlay anywhere?

749
00:35:39,837 --> 00:35:41,740
Yeah, he was in the locker room
like five minutes ago.

750
00:35:41,806 --> 00:35:42,807
Thank you.

751
00:35:45,043 --> 00:35:46,310
Hello, young lady.

752
00:35:47,846 --> 00:35:49,948
[tapping]

753
00:35:55,886 --> 00:35:58,056
What the bloody hell are you doing?

754
00:35:58,522 --> 00:36:00,091
-What are you talking about?
-You.

755
00:36:00,191 --> 00:36:02,227
Look at you, you're sweating
like Vince McMahon in a church.

756
00:36:02,293 --> 00:36:03,528
-Look at you.
-I'm working out.

757
00:36:03,595 --> 00:36:04,895
Are you talking
about the guy Vinny, right?

758
00:36:04,962 --> 00:36:06,498
Working out with your bloody
big girl's blouse.

759
00:36:06,564 --> 00:36:08,518
You don't jump rope like that,
I'll show you how to do it.

760
00:36:08,643 --> 00:36:10,201
-You talking about?
-Mate, what's the matter with you.

761
00:36:10,301 --> 00:36:12,370
-You can't do anything right at all.
-It's hot.

762
00:36:12,470 --> 00:36:14,639

the general manager
of SmackDown, Theodore Long.

776
00:37:08,058 --> 00:37:11,261
[Michael] I'll tell you, what a week,
General Manager Theodore Long has had.

777
00:37:11,328 --> 00:37:14,132
The Pick Your Poison
two nights ago on SmackDown,

778
00:37:14,299 --> 00:37:17,569
taking the Fatal 4-Way
for the championship here tonight.

779
00:37:17,836 --> 00:37:19,471
First time a main event
has ever been changed--

780
00:37:19,571 --> 00:37:21,772
[JBL] Wait a minute, just shut up.
What the hell is this?

781
00:37:21,940 --> 00:37:24,509
What is this peanut-headed
George Jefferson,

782
00:37:24,609 --> 00:37:27,578
moving up to the east side,
beets don't burn on the grill,

783
00:37:27,645 --> 00:37:29,948
-Teddy Long doin'?
-[Michael] I'm sure it's gonna be great.

784
00:37:30,014 --> 00:37:31,415
Ladies and gentlemen,

785
00:37:31,950 --> 00:37:35,587
as you can see,
it's somebody's birthday

786
00:37:35,720 --> 00:37:37,154
here on SmackDown.

787
00:37:38,923 --> 00:37:42,527
-So, Raleigh, North Carolina…
-[crowd cheering]

788
00:37:43,461 --> 00:37:45,596
Please join me…

789
00:37:45,663 --> 00:37:50,134
in wishing a very happy 26th birthday

790
00:37:50,335 --> 00:37:52,703
to the star of The Real World…

791
00:37:52,770 --> 00:37:53,772
[Michael] No.

792
00:37:53,938 --> 00:37:56,708
…the gauntlet and fear factor,

793
00:37:57,142 --> 00:38:02,547
ladies and gentlemen,
show your love for the undefeated Miz.

794
00:38:02,647 --> 00:38:04,516
[Michael] Hoora.

795
00:38:04,649 --> 00:38:06,183
-[JBL] Shut up.
-[Michael] The Miz.

796
00:38:06,250 --> 00:38:09,154
-[JBL] I'm gonna throw up.
-[Michael] Happy birthday to you.

797
00:38:10,455 --> 00:38:12,891
[JBL] Yeah, he can give me
a birthday wish. He can die.

798
00:38:14,392 --> 00:38:16,928
[Michael] Come on, he's undefeated.
He's vibing out, look at him.

799
00:38:17,127 --> 00:38:19,697
[JBL] I hate him.
I absolutely hate this guy.

800
00:38:19,798 --> 00:38:22,133
[Michael] Our general manager
has given him a birthday celebration.

801
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,402
You never got a birthday celebration
in the ring.

802
00:38:24,569 --> 00:38:26,805
[JBL] No, I didn't. Never. Never.

803
00:38:27,138 --> 00:38:29,574
I put people in seats
all over this world.

804
00:38:29,641 --> 00:38:31,676
I never got a birthday celebration.

805
00:38:31,843 --> 00:38:35,346
This jackass
with his Terry Taylor starter kit

806
00:38:35,547 --> 00:38:39,517
shows up here with the match
and he gets a birthday?

807
00:38:44,022 --> 00:38:45,990
[Michael] Oh, look, he's tasting his cake.

808
00:38:46,124 --> 00:38:48,326
[JBL] I hope he get's
that cake in his face.

809
00:38:49,928 --> 00:38:51,162
You are kidding me.

810
00:38:51,296 --> 00:38:52,931
-[Michael] This is great.
-[JBL] All for a reality show.

811
00:38:53,064 --> 00:38:54,766
-[Miz] Is this my cake?
-You got it.

812
00:38:54,833 --> 00:38:56,634
-Teddy…
-Everything is for you.

813
00:38:56,935 --> 00:38:59,337
There's only one thing
I can think of saying right now.

814
00:38:59,404 --> 00:39:00,572
What's that, player?

815
00:39:00,872 --> 00:39:03,141
-Hoora.
-[Michael] Hoora.

816
00:39:03,208 --> 00:39:05,310
-Hoora.
-[crowd] Hoora.

817
00:39:05,375 --> 00:39:07,178
-Hoora.
-[crowd] Hoora.

818
00:39:07,245 --> 00:39:09,214
Come on, Teddy, hoora.

819
00:39:09,279 --> 00:39:10,281
[crowd] Hoora.

820
00:39:10,515 --> 00:39:12,584
Miz fits, hoora.

821
00:39:12,683 --> 00:39:13,685
[crowd] Hoora.

822
00:39:13,750 --> 00:39:18,022
-Hoo…
-Hey, hey, hey. Hey, Miz.

823
00:39:18,323 --> 00:39:19,390
Hold on, player.

824
00:39:19,656 --> 00:39:21,659
-Now, hoora back to you.
-That's right, Teddy.

825
00:39:21,726 --> 00:39:23,394
But now, hold on a second.

826
00:39:23,728 --> 00:39:25,129
You know, a lot of people don't know this,

827
00:39:25,230 --> 00:39:27,265
but I've been watching you,
I got my eyes on you,

828
00:39:27,365 --> 00:39:28,665
and you've been hitting on

829
00:39:28,732 --> 00:39:31,435
one of my SmackDown Divas,
pretty heavy, player.

830
00:39:31,836 --> 00:39:34,205
So, I tell you what, she wants to come--

831
00:39:34,272 --> 00:39:38,643
You know, even though she hasn't been
too receptive to your advances,

832
00:39:39,243 --> 00:39:40,912
then maybe she's changed her mind.

833
00:39:41,078 --> 00:39:43,381
She wants to come out here tonight
to help you celebrate, all right?

834
00:39:44,082 --> 00:39:47,852
So, ladies and gentlemen,
get ready to show your love

835
00:39:47,919 --> 00:39:53,857
for the WWE 2006 Diva site winner, Layla.

836
00:39:53,924 --> 00:39:55,859
Thanks a lot! Thanks, Teddy!

837
00:39:56,661 --> 00:39:59,263
[Michael] So, wait, so Miz
gets a birthday celebration in the ring

838
00:39:59,364 --> 00:40:00,665
and Layla.

839
00:40:01,199 --> 00:40:04,102
-Layla for the Miz.
-[JBL] Oh, my God. Give her my birthday.

840
00:40:04,402 --> 00:40:05,270
Holy cow.

841
00:40:06,904 --> 00:40:11,009
I really figured Miz would want
London or Kendrick, the way he swings.

842
00:40:11,308 --> 00:40:13,011
[Michael] How smoking is she?

843
00:40:13,310 --> 00:40:17,015
[JBL] My God. Unbelievable.

844
00:40:17,815 --> 00:40:19,851
No wonder she won the competition.

845
00:40:21,319 --> 00:40:23,321
I'd give her 250 grand right now.

846
00:40:24,154 --> 00:40:25,656
Oh, wow.

847
00:40:27,258 --> 00:40:31,663
Um, Layla, I know
I can put it on a little strong.

848
00:40:32,163 --> 00:40:36,935
But today is my birthday
and I get one birthday wish.

849
00:40:37,935 --> 00:40:41,372
And my wish is for you, baby.

850
00:40:41,806 --> 00:40:45,743
-Oh, yeah. And, and I--
-Shh…

851
00:40:46,077 --> 00:40:49,681
-Oh!
-Chair, please.

852
00:40:50,181 --> 00:40:52,917
Chair? Chair. Get the-- Get her a chair!

853
00:40:53,183 --> 00:40:54,218
Get her a chair.

854
00:40:54,685 --> 00:40:58,856
[chuckles] Anything else? Anything else?

855
00:40:58,957 --> 00:41:01,993
Anything you want, on my birthday.

856
00:41:04,362 --> 00:41:06,364
[laughs]

857
00:41:08,700 --> 00:41:11,469
Oh, she blew in my ear.
That was my ear.

858
00:41:11,536 --> 00:41:13,770
Yeah, it's sensitive.

859
00:41:13,971 --> 00:41:17,475
-Music please.
-Get some music. Get the music.

860
00:41:17,542 --> 00:41:18,977
-[mellow music playing]
-Oh!

861
00:41:19,042 --> 00:41:22,647
I love blonds, I love redheads,
oh, I love brunettes.

862
00:41:22,747 --> 00:41:26,951
[Michael] I cannot believe Miz
is getting this kind of attention.

863
00:41:27,151 --> 00:41:30,555
I love every touch,
oh, let's see it's spicy or amazing.

864
00:41:31,154 --> 00:41:32,290
Oh, my God.

865
00:41:32,589 --> 00:41:35,460
If you wish you were the Miz right now,
let me hear you say hoora.

866
00:41:35,593 --> 00:41:36,794
-[Michael] Hoora.
-[JBL] Shut up.

867
00:41:36,894 --> 00:41:39,297
[Miz] Oh, yes. Oh, my God.

868
00:41:39,596 --> 00:41:41,851
-[JBL] I think Layla has done this before.
-[Miz] Oh, I want to touch it.

869
00:41:42,125 --> 00:41:44,268
Oh, look at you, oh, that's--

870
00:41:44,402 --> 00:41:46,636
[JBL] My God, that's more ass
than a donkey cart.

871
00:41:46,703 --> 00:41:48,606
-Oh, I love it. Oh!
-[JBL] Oh, my God.

872
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,609
Yeah, this is the best birthday ever.

873
00:41:52,009 --> 00:41:53,310
Best birthday ever.

874
00:41:53,578 --> 00:41:54,679
[JBL] She's wasting it…

875
00:41:55,078 --> 00:41:56,848
-She's got nails.
-…on Mr. Short Buzz here.

876
00:41:56,981 --> 00:42:02,587
If you think it's hot now,
let's take up the tempo.

877
00:42:04,355 --> 00:42:05,623
-[JBL] Blindfold?
-Blindfold.

878
00:42:05,823 --> 00:42:08,058
Blindfold me. I love it.

879
00:42:08,125 --> 00:42:10,428
Yes, yes, I love being blindfold.

880
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,897
Spank me, hit me, get out
the whips and chains, I don't care.

881
00:42:14,198 --> 00:42:16,299
I don't care what you do. Oh, yes.

882
00:42:16,500 --> 00:42:21,571
I like getting freaky.
Get freaky with me baby, oh, yeah.

883
00:42:21,739 --> 00:42:23,074
She's gonna get it.

884
00:42:23,741 --> 00:42:26,144
Miz sexy in the house, give it to me.

885
00:42:26,444 --> 00:42:27,779
Give it to me where she at?

886

-[upbeat music playing]
-Come on. I can feel it.

887
00:42:29,893 --> 00:42:31,115
Let me feel it, I feel the music.

888
00:42:31,182 --> 00:42:33,017
[Michael] Oh, my God. Oh, no.

889
00:42:33,084 --> 00:42:34,819
Give me that music, baby. Yeah.

890
00:42:34,952 --> 00:42:36,421
-Everyone.
-[Michael] Oh, no.

891
00:42:36,487 --> 00:42:38,990
It's either Duncan Rose
or Big Dick Johnson.

892
00:42:39,057 --> 00:42:42,326
-Oh, my God!
-[JBL] Oh, my lord! No!

893
00:42:42,692 --> 00:42:44,495
-Oh, no.
-Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. Yeah.

894
00:42:44,662 --> 00:42:47,531
[Michael] Miz doesn't know
what's happening. But maybe he does.

895
00:42:47,698 --> 00:42:48,833
Oh, my lord.

896
00:42:48,900 --> 00:42:53,136
[Miz] Yeah. This is awesome, oh,
give me back that ass spanking, huh.

897
00:42:53,805 --> 00:42:57,442
Spank it. I'm spanking it.
I'm doing it, right, right?

898
00:42:57,842 --> 00:42:59,176
Yeah, baby.

899
00:43:00,111 --> 00:43:02,279
-Yeah, baby.
-Whoo!

[laughing] Oh, my God.

905
00:43:29,740 --> 00:43:32,743
[JBL] Happy birthday, Miz, now go home.

906
00:43:33,411 --> 00:43:36,147
-[Michael laughing]
-[JBL] I'm scarred for life.

907
00:43:37,882 --> 00:43:40,151
[Michael] Oh, my. Look at this.

908
00:43:40,585 --> 00:43:43,154
[JBL] Big Dick Johnson and Layla.

909
00:43:44,422 --> 00:43:46,656
I can watch this for a while.

910
00:43:47,024 --> 00:43:49,093
-Holy cow.
-[Michael] I'm sure you can, you freak.

911
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:52,129
[JBL] Oh, yeah, yes, sir.

912
00:43:52,864 --> 00:43:54,866
Oh, yeah.

913
00:43:55,333 --> 00:43:57,734
[Michael] Go Big Dick, go.
Go Big Dick, go.

914
00:43:57,801 --> 00:44:00,438
-Go Big Dick, go.
-[JBL] Big Dick looks like your prom date.

915
00:44:00,638 --> 00:44:04,509
[Michael] But we're live at the RBC Center
at North Carolina State University

916
00:44:04,575 --> 00:44:08,980
but home tonight to No Mercy
and also the home of Big Dick.

917
00:44:09,113 --> 00:44:10,982
-[JBL] Yeah, Big Dick is so fat…
-[Michael] Can you believe that?

918
00:44:11,115 --> 00:44:13,017
…he jumps up in the air
and he gets stuck.

919
00:44:13,417 --> 00:44:14,886
-Holy cow.
-[Michael] Oh, my word.

920
00:44:14,986 --> 00:44:16,888
Oh, look at this. I can't believe this.

921
00:44:17,054 --> 00:44:19,423
[JBL] Miz got what he deserved, Michael.

922
00:44:19,490 --> 00:44:21,192
[Michael] What do you think Miz
is doing right now?

923
00:44:21,491 --> 00:44:23,493
Taking a nice cold shower?

924
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,529
[JBL] I don't know.
He might be looking for Big Dick.

-[Michael] Marty Garner!

He calls himself MVP.

977
00:46:54,011 --> 00:46:57,013
He looks like he stole his outfit
from Battlestar Galactica,

978

comes out here with that gleam
and that stupid smile.

weighs a 199 pounds,

a 199 pounds, either way a buck 59.

981
00:47:11,495 --> 00:47:15,132
and this who MVP is gonna make
his long awaited debut against?

00:47:15,399 --> 00:47:18,002
I mean, give me a break.

his pay-per-view debut.

-[JBL] Punk ass. Just a punk ass.
-[bell ringing]

987
00:47:28,346 --> 00:47:31,816
[Michael] But all this contractual stuff
back and forth allowed no talking.

988
00:47:31,882 --> 00:47:33,250
And this is what we get.

989
00:47:33,484 --> 00:47:35,152
This is what we get at No Mercy.

990
00:47:35,986 --> 00:47:38,723
[JBL] I agree with you. I agree with you.

991
00:47:39,490 --> 00:47:40,591
[Michael] Come on.

992
00:47:40,658 --> 00:47:42,526
I don't for one minute buy the fact

993
00:47:42,625 --> 00:47:45,830
that MVP did not know
who his opponent was tonight, do you?

994
00:47:45,895 --> 00:47:49,400
[Michael] What happened to Regal,
Batista, Lashley?

995
00:47:49,633 --> 00:47:52,069

full of superstars

996
00:47:52,236 --> 00:47:54,171
and they picked this guy that's so skinny

997
00:47:54,238 --> 00:47:56,640
he has to run around
in the shower to get wet.

998
00:47:57,508 --> 00:47:59,577
[JBL] Oh, you're tough.
You're just real tough.

999
00:47:59,643 --> 00:48:02,346
-[Michael] What was that?
-[JBL] It's a glow in the dark.

1000
00:48:02,879 --> 00:48:04,714
[Michael] Nice one. MVP.

1001
00:48:05,383 --> 00:48:07,250
He thinks a lot of himself, doesn't he?

1002
00:48:09,252 --> 00:48:12,189
[JBL] He looks like a blueberry
with rhinestones on top of it.

1003
00:48:14,357 --> 00:48:15,960
-[Michael] Did he get that?
-[JBL] I can't--I can't--

1004
00:48:16,026 --> 00:48:18,562
Did he get that outfit
from the fabulous Moolah

1005
00:48:18,629 --> 00:48:19,763
or Michael Hayes?

1006
00:48:20,163 --> 00:48:21,432
[Michael] I can't believe this.

1007
00:48:21,699 --> 00:48:23,200
I'd have expected, like you said,

1008
00:48:23,701 --> 00:48:27,772
major tier superstar against MVP
to see what he's made of in his debut.

1009
00:48:28,806 --> 00:48:30,473
Pretty--it's not merely there.

1010
00:48:30,641 --> 00:48:32,810
[JBL] Cover, and MVP
has not got his match made.

1011
00:48:35,011 --> 00:48:37,147
Could be a long road ahead for this man.

1012
00:48:38,182 --> 00:48:39,950
[Michael] Well, not if he continues
to take on Marty.

1013
00:48:40,017 --> 00:48:42,353
[JBL] See, he's not cocky. He's arrogant.

1014
00:48:42,720 --> 00:48:43,721
[Michael] He's a goof.

1015
00:48:44,488 --> 00:48:45,522
[JBL] He's that too.

1016
00:48:45,955 --> 00:48:48,125
Mr. Kennedy comes out here, he's cocky.

1017
00:48:48,225 --> 00:48:49,859
He talks trash, he backs it up.

1018
00:48:49,926 --> 00:48:52,296
Stone Cold Steve Austin talk trash,
he broke it up.

1019
00:48:52,363 --> 00:48:53,964
This guy talks trash

1020
00:48:54,231 --> 00:48:59,136
and got somebody that couldn't win
a bingo contest in high school.

1021
00:48:59,236 --> 00:49:01,305
[Michael] I think there was
a "boring" chant going moments ago.

1022
00:49:01,372 --> 00:49:04,375
That's what the SmackDown fans
think of MVP.

1023
00:49:05,910 --> 00:49:08,045
Garner bounced off the top turnbuckle.

1024
00:49:09,413 --> 00:49:10,748
I mean, come on, now.

1025
00:49:10,815 --> 00:49:13,049
-And look at Garner, his left hand.
-[JBL] Hit him, hit him.

1026
00:49:13,183 --> 00:49:15,051
[Michael] MVP, well,
he was stunned for a moment.

1027
00:49:15,152 --> 00:49:16,554
[JBL] Let me try to tell you something,

1028
00:49:16,620 --> 00:49:18,689
you get a right hand like that
from The Undertaker,

1029
00:49:18,756 --> 00:49:21,792
this guy with his blueberry bling
is gonna get knocked out.

1030
00:49:22,259 --> 00:49:24,795
[Michael] Garner whipped
across the ring, up over the top,

1031
00:49:25,362 --> 00:49:28,031
and gets him in a clothesline.
That was vicious.

1032
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,502
And MVP's slamming the back
of Garner's skull into the ring.

1033
00:49:32,569 --> 00:49:36,440
I think play time is over
for Montel Vontavious Porter.

1034
00:49:37,607 --> 00:49:39,310
A mean streak coming out.

1035
00:49:41,045 --> 00:49:45,549
We saw sides of this throughout
his contract negotiation.

1036
00:49:45,649 --> 00:49:48,285
[JBL] This guy, he's got the body
of a hunger strike victim,

1037
00:49:48,384 --> 00:49:49,752
whatever his name is.

1038
00:49:50,654 --> 00:49:52,656
-Oh, you're tough.
-[Michael] Oh, that was unique.

1039
00:49:53,057 --> 00:49:54,859
MVP into the cover.

1040
00:49:55,593 --> 00:49:57,228
-And say what you want…
-[bell ringing]

1041
00:49:57,294 --> 00:49:59,930
…Montel Vontavious Porter
wins his debut.

1042
00:50:00,397 --> 00:50:04,000
[announcer] Here is your winner, MVP.

1043
00:50:04,268 --> 00:50:07,304
[Michael] Well, the MVP era
gets some victory upon us.

1044
00:50:07,370 --> 00:50:09,440
[JBL] That's smile
needs to be knocked off his face

1045
00:50:09,507 --> 00:50:12,509
and I'd love to be the one that did it.
What a cocky punk.

1046
00:50:12,576 --> 00:50:14,645
The history of this ring.

1047
00:50:14,944 --> 00:50:18,281
From all of the great people,
Gorgeous George came out in a rope,

1048
00:50:18,348 --> 00:50:19,750
Ric Flair came out in ropes.

1049
00:50:19,817 --> 00:50:21,118
They packed it up.

1050
00:50:21,185 --> 00:50:24,321
This little punk ass
hadn't busted a grave his entire life

1051
00:50:24,421 --> 00:50:26,857
and he walks around
like he's a world champion

1052
00:50:26,957 --> 00:50:29,560
and I take personal offense at that.

1053
00:50:30,661 --> 00:50:33,263
And so should everybody else in SmackDown.

1054
00:50:33,731 --> 00:50:37,134
[Michael] This is how things started
before the match ever got under way,

1055
00:50:37,201 --> 00:50:42,306
the slap by the cocky,
brash, arrogant, egotistical MVP

1056
00:50:42,439 --> 00:50:43,908
who did show a mean streak

1057
00:50:43,973 --> 00:50:45,942
but what upsets me more than anything else

1058
00:50:46,076 --> 00:50:47,912
and he was impressive here, JBL,

1059
00:50:47,978 --> 00:50:51,582
is the fact that MVP talked
a great game for weeks and weeks

1060
00:50:52,082 --> 00:50:54,785
and he comes out to take on Marty Garner.

1061
00:50:56,053 --> 00:50:57,154
I mean, come on now.

1062
00:50:58,489 --> 00:51:00,691
[JBL] Over promised, under delivered.

1063
00:51:01,725 --> 00:51:02,993
[Michael] Exactly.

1064
00:51:04,127 --> 00:51:06,663
Promised to lock in
however much in my mind.

1065
00:51:06,830 --> 00:51:08,464
[JBL] He's got to bring more than that.

1066
00:51:08,899 --> 00:51:11,734
[Michael] Well, he's got himself
a nice big fat contract.

1067
00:51:11,969 --> 00:51:13,237
He's gonna be on SmackDown

1068
00:51:13,337 --> 00:51:15,606
for a long time to come
from what I understand.

1069
00:51:16,205 --> 00:51:17,374
And that says it all.

1070
00:51:17,441 --> 00:51:20,778
[JBL] How badly
did he out-negotiate Teddy Long?

1071
00:51:21,779 --> 00:51:24,882
Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.

1072
00:51:26,417 --> 00:51:28,886
Oh, dear. [sighs]

1073
00:51:29,486 --> 00:51:30,554
What a day.

1074
00:51:31,221 --> 00:51:33,790
[Finlay]
♪ London bridge is falling down ♪

1075
00:51:34,124 --> 00:51:36,794
♪ Falling down, falling down ♪

1076
00:51:37,728 --> 00:51:40,330
[laughing]
♪ London bridge is falling down ♪

1077
00:51:40,631 --> 00:51:42,499
Oh, my God, what happened?

1078
00:51:42,799 --> 00:51:44,667
Somebody shortchange you over there?

1079
00:51:44,801 --> 00:51:46,670
Oh, my God, is your father a donkey?

1080
00:51:47,037 --> 00:51:48,939
It gets me a lot of dates,
the chicks dig it.

1081
00:51:49,073 --> 00:51:52,142
I'm from Staten Island. [laughs]

1082
00:51:52,209 --> 00:51:53,978
[William whimpers]

1083
00:51:54,111 --> 00:51:56,279
[crowd laughs]

1084
00:51:56,346 --> 00:51:58,949
[William] Oops, ladies!
Oh, I'm dreadfully sorry,

1085
00:51:59,016 --> 00:52:00,250
it's the air-conditioning.

1086
00:52:00,317 --> 00:52:02,182
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
Wait, hey, what are you doing?

1087
00:52:02,332 --> 00:52:03,609
What do you mean, what am I doing?

1088
00:52:03,694 --> 00:52:04,958
I'm getting accosted in the shower--

1089
00:52:05,058 --> 00:52:07,359
Hey, the first thing you need to do
is you need to cover up your--

1090
00:52:07,433 --> 00:52:08,392
I've got to find Finlay.

1091
00:52:08,491 --> 00:52:10,560
-Cover yourself up right now.
-I'm covering. I'm covering.

1092
00:52:10,627 --> 00:52:12,763
Now, you mean to tell me,
you got nothing better to do

1093
00:52:12,895 --> 00:52:14,397
than to be horse playing in the hall

1094
00:52:14,498 --> 00:52:15,933
and hanky panking around in the shower.

1095
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:17,267
I'm on a serious mission.

1096
00:52:17,368 --> 00:52:20,671
I'm trying to-- And Vito
has got me in the shower and-- Oh!

1097
00:52:20,738 --> 00:52:22,038
Well, speaking of Vito,

1098
00:52:22,272 --> 00:52:23,973
Vito has some issues to work through.

1099
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:25,542
Now, let me tell you something right now,

1100
00:52:25,609 --> 00:52:28,145
I am not gonna tolerate
this horse playing in the hall

1101
00:52:28,212 --> 00:52:29,480
so I tell you what I'm gonna do.

1102
00:52:29,546 --> 00:52:32,783
The best thing for you to do
is go back to the locker room,

1103
00:52:32,850 --> 00:52:33,984
put your gear on

1104
00:52:34,051 --> 00:52:36,453
because later on tonight,
I'm putting you in a match.

1105
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:37,553
You got that?

1106
00:52:37,754 --> 00:52:39,390
How very, very dare you.

1107
00:52:39,455 --> 00:52:40,457
Change.

1108
00:52:40,524 --> 00:52:42,960
[crowd chatter]

1109
00:52:45,962 --> 00:52:47,564
[Michael] Well,
ladies and gentlemen, up next,

1110
00:52:47,631 --> 00:52:50,401
the man who was undefeated
at WrestleMania,

1111
00:52:50,533 --> 00:52:53,569
the four-time champion,
the sure-fire hall of famer,

1112
00:52:53,636 --> 00:52:57,774
the legendary Undertaker
one-on-one with the brash, the cocky,

1113
00:52:57,841 --> 00:53:01,377
the confident United States Champion,
Mr. Kennedy.

1114
00:53:01,578 --> 00:53:04,147
And as he said on SmackDown
this past Friday night,

1115
00:53:04,214 --> 00:53:07,518
Kennedy claims
he will beat The Undertaker.

1116
00:53:09,886 --> 00:53:14,857
Undertaker, you've made a career

1117
00:53:15,292 --> 00:53:17,060
based on reputation

1118
00:53:18,495 --> 00:53:22,066
and achieved legendary status
as a phenom in this industry.

1119
00:53:22,700 --> 00:53:25,134
[commentator] There is only one phenom.

1120
00:53:25,669 --> 00:53:29,173
There is only one Undertaker.

1121
00:53:29,940 --> 00:53:33,143
[Mr. Kennedy] You've won championships,
defeated legends

1122
00:53:33,310 --> 00:53:37,214
and accomplished pretty much everything
there is to accomplish in this industry.

1123
00:53:37,748 --> 00:53:39,049
[commentator 2] He is a living legend.

1124
00:53:39,582 --> 00:53:41,151
As bad as they come,

1125
00:53:41,484 --> 00:53:44,187
a dangerous, violent, vicious force.

1126
00:53:44,821 --> 00:53:46,457
By playing mind games with people,

1127
00:53:47,558 --> 00:53:50,094
you've locked them away in caskets,

1128
00:53:51,095 --> 00:53:55,332
hauled them away in hearses,
you've even buried people alive.

1129
00:53:58,634 --> 00:53:59,737
And last week,

1130
00:54:00,537 --> 00:54:06,210
I came face to face
with the awesome power that you possess.

1131
00:54:07,144 --> 00:54:09,446
[commentator 2] Wait. Oh, wait!
What the hell was that?

1132
00:54:09,812 --> 00:54:12,683
Mr. Kennedy's microphone
just blew up in the ring.

1133
00:54:13,250 --> 00:54:16,653
Did you honestly think
a little magic trick

1134
00:54:16,720 --> 00:54:19,757
like making my microphone explode
and shoot sparks all over the place

1135
00:54:19,823 --> 00:54:21,058
was gonna intimidate me?

1136
00:54:21,125 --> 00:54:26,864
Undertaker, the decade and a half
of destruction is over.

1137
00:54:27,498 --> 00:54:30,000
And the future has arrived.

1138
00:54:30,067 --> 00:54:32,836
The future is me.

1139
00:54:33,036 --> 00:54:34,071
[bell tolls]

1140
00:54:34,138 --> 00:54:38,174
[Undertaker] There's something important
I think you should know.

1141
00:54:41,211 --> 00:54:42,879
I have seen the best,

1142
00:54:44,714 --> 00:54:46,716
I have fought the best,

1143
00:54:48,484 --> 00:54:50,053
and I've beaten the best.

1144
00:54:53,156 --> 00:54:55,826
You don't scare me.

1145
00:54:57,027 --> 00:54:59,263
Nothing that you can conjure

1146
00:54:59,529 --> 00:55:03,267
in the deepest,
darkest recesses of your mind

1147
00:55:03,399 --> 00:55:06,569
will compare to the shock and awe

1148
00:55:07,037 --> 00:55:09,640
when I pin you at No Mercy.

1149
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:14,310
[Undertaker]
You can't hide from the Dead Man.

1150
00:55:15,879 --> 00:55:18,482
The future is me.

1151
00:55:20,551 --> 00:55:26,790
The future is Mr. Kennedy.

1152
00:55:28,192 --> 00:55:29,560
-[announcer] Kennedy.
-[rock music playing]

1153
00:55:29,660 --> 00:55:32,029
[Michael] well, I have to admit,
the United States champion,

1154
00:55:32,328 --> 00:55:34,964
well, convincing as hell,
pretty confident.

1155
00:55:35,132 --> 00:55:36,966
[JBL] Michael, you can be
convincing all you want.

1156
00:55:37,033 --> 00:55:39,303
You can even convince yourself.
It's a different thing

1157
00:55:39,368 --> 00:55:41,805
when you step in the ring
with The Undertaker.

1158
00:55:41,939 --> 00:55:42,940
[bell ringing]

1159
00:55:43,173 --> 00:55:46,176
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1160
00:55:46,243 --> 00:55:49,980
Approaching the ring,

[Michael] He's cocky.

1168
00:56:15,538 --> 00:56:18,375
Remember the microphone
that blew up a couple of weeks back

1169
00:56:18,442 --> 00:56:19,977
at the hands of The Undertaker.

1170
00:56:22,111 --> 00:56:23,480
Ladies and gentlemen,

1171
00:56:24,915 --> 00:56:28,952
I weigh in tonight at two-- No, shut up.

1172
00:56:29,019 --> 00:56:31,520
This is my time. This is about me.

-[crowd booing]
-[Mr. Kennedy breathing heavily]

1174
00:56:36,894 --> 00:56:40,297
I weigh in tonight at 240 pounds.

1175
00:56:41,298 --> 00:56:46,937
I hail from Green Bay, Wisconsin

1176
00:56:47,504 --> 00:56:52,576
and you are looking
at the United States Champion.

1177
00:56:52,643 --> 00:56:54,377
I am…

1178
00:56:54,444 --> 00:57:00,116
Mr. Kennedy.

1179
00:57:02,319 --> 00:57:04,154
Kennedy.

1180
00:57:04,221 --> 00:57:06,957
[crowd booing]

1181
00:57:14,498 --> 00:57:18,035
[crowd chatter]

-[bell tolls]
-[crowd cheering]

1183
00:57:23,272 --> 00:57:24,408
[JBL] Here he comes.

1184
00:57:24,473 --> 00:57:27,009
[crowd cheering]

1185
00:57:27,144 --> 00:57:28,312
[bell tolls]

1186
00:57:36,118 --> 00:57:39,156
[JBL] There's nothing Kennedy could do
to prepare for this.

1187
00:57:39,957 --> 00:57:42,625
You can talk all you want.
You can believe what you want.

1188
00:57:42,692 --> 00:57:46,229
I've been in the ring where Kennedy is,
this right here

1189
00:57:46,462 --> 00:57:49,299
-is a cold chilling fear.
-[announcer] And from Death Valley,

1190
00:57:49,366 --> 00:57:52,502
weighing in at 305 pounds,

1191
00:57:53,403 --> 00:57:57,274
The Undertaker.

1192
00:58:02,145 --> 00:58:05,949
[Michael] Ladies and gentlemen,
it is one thing for Mr. Kennedy

1193
00:58:06,249 --> 00:58:08,919
to say to The Undertaker
that you don't scare me,

1194
00:58:09,219 --> 00:58:13,323
that your hocus pocus garbage
and your illusions

1195
00:58:13,390 --> 00:58:16,560
and your scare tactics mean squat to me.

1196
00:58:16,993 --> 00:58:19,328
But it's another thing
to actually sit in the ring

1197
00:58:19,596 --> 00:58:21,665
and to feel this presence,

1198
00:58:21,897 --> 00:58:25,535
the presence of perhaps,
the most legendary,

1199
00:58:25,602 --> 00:58:27,636
the surefire hall of famer,

1200
00:58:27,870 --> 00:58:30,941
the most-- The Phenomenal superstar,
The Undertaker,

1201
00:58:31,107 --> 00:58:33,143
approaching to the ring,
tell us about it.

1202
00:58:33,477 --> 00:58:36,346
[JBL] Kennedy sat here with us,
you can watch The Undertaker

1203
00:58:36,413 --> 00:58:38,615
approach someone in the ring
but it wasn't him.

1204
00:58:38,714 --> 00:58:41,585
Until you've sat there
and realized that the Dead Man,

1205
00:58:41,651 --> 00:58:42,685
The Phenom,

1206
00:58:42,786 --> 00:58:48,357
the guy who doesn't fight for prestige,
for titles, for money, just for causes,

1207
00:58:48,491 --> 00:58:50,259
is coming after you, Michael,

1208
00:58:50,627 --> 00:58:53,296
you haven't felt anything.

1209
00:58:53,529 --> 00:58:55,665
[Michael] Again, to your point,
for The Undertaker,

1210
00:58:55,765 --> 00:58:58,335
this is not about
the United States Championship,

1211
00:58:58,435 --> 00:59:00,404
that title is not on the line tonight.

1212
00:59:00,470 --> 00:59:05,875
For The Undertaker, it is about
taking on a brash, a young kid,

1213
00:59:06,042 --> 00:59:09,379
another one in a long line of people
who come into this ring

1214
00:59:09,479 --> 00:59:13,015
and claim that they're gonna take
the yard from The Undertaker.

1215
00:59:14,451 --> 00:59:17,921
[JBL] Kennedy has beaten
a lot of men though, Michael.

1216
00:59:22,192 --> 00:59:23,926
But, Michael, let me tell you this.

1217
00:59:24,627 --> 00:59:25,694
So had I.

1218
00:59:25,962 --> 00:59:30,067
I stepped in the ring
with No Mercy against The Undertaker.

1219
00:59:30,332 --> 00:59:33,603
I barely walked out the same.

1220
00:59:34,270 --> 00:59:38,375
[Michael] The Undertaker has made
a career of roughing people up

1221
00:59:38,475 --> 00:59:43,747
by not only using his physical prowess
but also, his psychological warfare,

1222
00:59:44,114 --> 00:59:47,116
his mind games,
his intimidation, his humiliation.

1223
00:59:47,183 --> 00:59:50,486
[JBL] What's psychological to look at him.
Look at Undertaker.

1224
00:59:50,553 --> 00:59:52,923
That's all you need to see.
Look at that man.

1225
00:59:53,089 --> 00:59:55,892
How would you like to be
staring at that man? I've done it.

1226
00:59:56,125 --> 00:59:58,127
I've had nightmares about it.

1227
00:59:58,294 --> 00:59:59,763
Not that I was scared,

1228
01:00:00,263 --> 01:00:02,866
I've had nightmares
about that man right there.

1229
01:00:02,933 --> 01:00:06,303
[Michael] In fact, in No Mercy,
two years ago, JBL,

1230
01:00:06,602 --> 01:00:10,140
you were in a Last Ride match
against The Undertaker.

1231
01:00:10,207 --> 01:00:13,343
[JBL] Tombstoned me on the stairs,
busted my head wide open,

1232
01:00:13,410 --> 01:00:15,678
put me through
the Spanish announcer table

1233
01:00:15,979 --> 01:00:18,615
and almost ended my career.

1234
01:00:19,348 --> 01:00:20,649
[bell tolls]

1235
01:00:21,051 --> 01:00:25,455
And I walked out technically
the winner that night, Michael.

1236
01:00:26,189 --> 01:00:28,792
[Michael] And Mr. Kennedy,
perhaps a bit of fear

1237
01:00:28,892 --> 01:00:31,661
just creeping into the eyes
of the United States champion.

1238
01:00:31,794 --> 01:00:33,029
[JBL] I don't care who you are.

1239
01:00:33,497 --> 01:00:38,301
That right there is a moment of fear,
knowing that here it is, it's show time.

1240
01:00:38,602 --> 01:00:40,403
[Michael] So, as this
match up officially…

1241
01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:46,375
gets set to get underway
from referee Charles Robinson,

1242
01:00:46,475 --> 01:00:48,078
I have to ask you the question,

1243
01:00:48,178 --> 01:00:50,580
as Undertaker is just standing there,
not moving,

1244
01:00:50,913 --> 01:00:52,382
staring a hole through Kennedy,

1245
01:00:52,448 --> 01:00:55,285
I have to ask you the question, John,
actually, I wanna make a point.

1246
01:00:55,484 --> 01:00:57,254
I don't think, in my mind

1247
01:00:57,419 --> 01:01:00,056
that Kennedy can beat
The Undertaker tonight.

1248
01:01:00,156 --> 01:01:02,459
[JBL] You didn't think Kennedy
could defeat Batista

1249
01:01:02,558 --> 01:01:03,727
when he called him out,

1250
01:01:03,792 --> 01:01:05,794
when Batista was so mad
that he had been off

1251
01:01:05,861 --> 01:01:08,298
for eight months due to Mark Henry,
Kennedy did it.

1252
01:01:08,531 --> 01:01:10,033
-Kennedy defeated Rey Mysterio.
-[bell rings]

1253
01:01:10,100 --> 01:01:11,535
[JBL] He defeated King Booker.

1254
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:13,770
He's defeated three world champions.

1255
01:01:14,471 --> 01:01:15,538
[Michael] And here they go.

1256
01:01:15,605 --> 01:01:17,874
Undertaker, tossing Kennedy
into the corner

1257
01:01:17,941 --> 01:01:20,442
went for the big right hand,
and Kennedy with the right hands.

1258
01:01:20,509 --> 01:01:22,345
He needs to stay in this match up early

1259
01:01:22,412 --> 01:01:25,549
and he cannot make The Phenom mad,
that is important.

1260
01:01:26,348 --> 01:01:28,785
Big high elbow by Kennedy
to The Undertaker.

1261
01:01:29,051 --> 01:01:32,989
There's the big foot by The Phenom,
the four-time champion.

1262
01:01:33,056 --> 01:01:34,991
[JBL] You can't match the power
of this guy.

1263
01:01:35,058 --> 01:01:37,227
You have to hope
The Undertaker makes a mistake

1264
01:01:37,294 --> 01:01:38,662
and you've got to capitalize on it,

1265
01:01:38,794 --> 01:01:41,431
one thing that Kennedy
does exceptionally well.

1266
01:01:42,031 --> 01:01:43,466
[Michael] Watch the impact.

1267
01:01:44,868 --> 01:01:46,469
Almost knocked Kennedy's head off.

1268
01:01:47,571 --> 01:01:50,272
Ladies and gentlemen,
this all started a couple of weeks back

1269
01:01:50,339 --> 01:01:53,710
when Mr. Kennedy walked out here
and told general manager, Theodore Long,

1270
01:01:53,777 --> 01:01:56,580
I'm going to Raw,
I've beaten everybody on SmackDown.

1271
01:01:56,645 --> 01:01:58,615
There's no more competition for me here.

1272
01:01:58,682 --> 01:02:02,384
But Kennedy forgot about one man,
and that's The Phenom, The Undertaker.

1273
01:02:04,221 --> 01:02:07,123
[JBL] And I'll still give Kennedy
a chance, Michael.

1274
01:02:08,124 --> 01:02:10,493
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy is the man
who is looking tonight

1275
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:12,395
to knock off another former champion.

1276
01:02:12,462 --> 01:02:15,765
He's already knocked off
Batista, Rey Mysterio,

1277
01:02:15,899 --> 01:02:18,268
Booker T, or King Booker, among others.

1278
01:02:18,335 --> 01:02:21,238
[JBL] And this will be the fourth
world champion he has knocked off.

1279
01:02:21,303 --> 01:02:22,504
[Michael] If he can knock him off.

1280
01:02:22,571 --> 01:02:24,274
[JBL] If The Undertaker can knock him off.

1281
01:02:24,841 --> 01:02:27,477
-[Michael] Undertaker-- Mr. Kennedy--
-[JBL] Smart. Smart.

1282
01:02:28,011 --> 01:02:29,078
You got to think.

1283
01:02:29,913 --> 01:02:32,214
[Michael] This is wise,
as Mr. Kennedy rolls out of the ring,

1284
01:02:32,281 --> 01:02:34,917
but The Undertaker is quickly in pursuit.

1285
01:02:35,627 --> 01:02:38,384
And Mr. Kennedy,
as Undertaker works on that left arm.

1286
01:02:38,509 --> 01:02:40,557
[JBL] Let me tell you what you
have to do with The Undertaker.

1287
01:02:40,624 --> 01:02:43,058
When The Undertaker gets rolling,
when The Undertaker gets momentum going,

1288
01:02:43,125 --> 01:02:44,794
you've got to break it.
You got to roll out.

1289
01:02:44,861 --> 01:02:46,997
You got to get away from him.
You got to stop him

1290
01:02:47,196 --> 01:02:49,799
because there's nobody better
when he is on offense

1291
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:54,069
in the history of this game
than the Dead Man, The Undertaker.

1292
01:02:54,136 --> 01:02:56,038
[Michael] Undertaker,
stalking Mr. Kennedy.

1293
01:02:56,205 --> 01:02:59,009
Mr. Kennedy, the man
who just two nights ago on SmackDown

1294
01:02:59,075 --> 01:03:02,578
claimed that The Undertaker's
decade and a half of destruction

1295
01:03:02,645 --> 01:03:04,047
would end here tonight.

1296
01:03:04,114 --> 01:03:06,348
[JBL] And no offense
to the past world champions

1297
01:03:06,415 --> 01:03:07,884
that Mr. Kennedy has beaten,

1298
01:03:08,018 --> 01:03:11,453
but this is a level
that he's never competed on before,

1299
01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:13,522
the level against The Undertaker.

1300
01:03:13,690 --> 01:03:15,191
[Michael] Well, somebody--
Look at the strength

1301
01:03:15,692 --> 01:03:18,595
of the six ten, 300 pound Undertaker.

1302
01:03:19,095 --> 01:03:20,964
If you're talking about level,
so many different levels,

1303
01:03:21,031 --> 01:03:25,167
not only physically, but also mentally,
emotionally, psychologically.

1304
01:03:26,469 --> 01:03:30,573
Undertaker again in pursuit,
Mr. Kennedy outside the ring.

1305
01:03:30,674 --> 01:03:33,176
[JBL] I tried to play mind games
with The Undertaker.

1306
01:03:33,243 --> 01:03:34,844
I tried to out think him.

1307
01:03:34,910 --> 01:03:37,212
I tried to outsmart him,
and Michael, quite frankly--

1308
01:03:37,279 --> 01:03:38,348
[Michael] Watch this. Watch this.

1309
01:03:38,415 --> 01:03:41,317
Oh, and that injured shoulder
driven into the steel ring post.

1310
01:03:41,451 --> 01:03:44,620
[JBL] Nothing that I did
was very successful.

1311
01:03:44,754 --> 01:03:47,057
All I did was able to survive.

1312
01:03:47,123 --> 01:03:49,326
Some people have not done that.

1313
01:03:49,426 --> 01:03:52,028
[Michael] Hey, the 14 and 0 record
on the grandest stage of all,

1314
01:03:52,127 --> 01:03:54,897
WrestleMania, is all you need
to know about The Undertaker.

1315
01:03:55,464 --> 01:03:57,533
And Mr. Kennedy
hanging on for dear life.

1316
01:03:57,600 --> 01:03:58,946
[JBL] And mind you, the hall of fame

1317
01:03:59,071 --> 01:04:01,037
listed Undertaker's
won championship fights,

1318
01:04:01,104 --> 01:04:04,307
two times, Hulk Hogan,
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin,

1319
01:04:04,540 --> 01:04:09,178
Sycho Sid, he's had four world champions
because that's all he's cared to win.

1320
01:04:09,312 --> 01:04:13,015
If this guy cared about championships
and this guy cared about money,

1321
01:04:13,249 --> 01:04:15,984
he would have it. He believes in causes.

1322
01:04:16,653 --> 01:04:19,888
[Michael] And Mr. Kennedy,
elbows to the gut of The Undertaker,

1323
01:04:19,955 --> 01:04:22,091
follows it up with a right hand,
still cradling that left arm,

1324
01:04:22,192 --> 01:04:23,660
and did you see the boot?

1325
01:04:23,859 --> 01:04:25,528
The big boot of The Undertaker.

1326
01:04:25,861 --> 01:04:28,698
[JBL] Don't trade fists with Undertaker.

1327
01:04:29,064 --> 01:04:32,435
[Michael] You can't do it.
Undertaker is the best pure striker

1328
01:04:32,535 --> 01:04:34,904
in the history of sports entertainment.

1329
01:04:35,739 --> 01:04:38,508
So where is the kick to the armor?

1330
01:04:38,575 --> 01:04:40,944
If you're Mr. Kennedy,
how do you attack The Undertaker?

1331
01:04:41,009 --> 01:04:42,544
[JBL] You got to hope he makes a mistake.

1332
01:04:42,611 --> 01:04:45,881
You got to hope The Undertaker
does something, will make a mistake.

1333
01:04:45,948 --> 01:04:46,982
-Old school.
-[Michael] Look at this.

1334
01:04:47,049 --> 01:04:48,585
-Phenom going for the old school.
-[JBL] Old school.

1335
01:04:48,651 --> 01:04:50,754
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy,
trying to knock The Undertaker.

1336
01:04:50,819 --> 01:04:52,589
-[JBL] That's what you do.
-[Michael] There's the big arm drag.

1337
01:04:52,654 --> 01:04:53,923
[JBL] That's what you do.

1338
01:04:54,057 --> 01:04:55,759
Game changer right there.

1339
01:04:55,825 --> 01:04:58,495
That is the kink
in The Undertaker's armor.

1340
01:04:59,095 --> 01:05:01,096
-[Michael] But can Mr. Kennedy capitalize?
[JBL] You've got to--

1341
01:05:01,263 --> 01:05:03,399
You've got to catch
The Undertaker on a roll

1342
01:05:03,466 --> 01:05:05,801
and you've to find a way
to make one hell of a counter.

1343
01:05:05,868 --> 01:05:08,270
[Michael] Watch this.
An arm drag halfway across the ring,

1344
01:05:08,404 --> 01:05:09,973
The Phenom in trouble.

1345
01:05:10,038 --> 01:05:11,274
However, he did sit up.

1346
01:05:11,408 --> 01:05:14,176
[JBL] When's the last time
you ever saw that, Michael,

1347
01:05:14,243 --> 01:05:16,546
The Undertaker being thrown
off the top rope?

1348
01:05:16,613 --> 01:05:19,649
[Michael] Cannot recall it.
As Mr. Kennedy begins the attack.

1349
01:05:19,948 --> 01:05:22,785
Mr. Kennedy still favoring that left arm.

1350
01:05:22,852 --> 01:05:24,687
But momentum may be shifting
in the match up

1351
01:05:24,754 --> 01:05:27,189
and this is where Kennedy
becomes so dangerous.

1352
01:05:27,524 --> 01:05:31,493
We've seen it a number of times, JBL,
the viciousness kicks in

1353
01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:34,062
when Kennedy realizes
his opponent is in trouble.

1354
01:05:34,263 --> 01:05:37,200
[JBL] Kennedy loves to jump on a guy
when he's injured.

1355
01:05:37,267 --> 01:05:39,803
He's great at it. One of the best we have.

1356
01:05:39,868 --> 01:05:43,640
Yeah, that's why he is SmackDown's
greatest, fastest rising star.

1357
01:05:43,906 --> 01:05:48,044
When he get this man down, The Undertaker,
you better not let him up.

1358
01:05:48,211 --> 01:05:50,346
[Michael] Kennedy, winning
the United States Championship

1359
01:05:50,446 --> 01:05:53,883
against Finlay and Lashley
in a Triple Threat a couple of months ago.

1360
01:05:54,216 --> 01:05:55,752
[JBL] With Kennedy gaining confidence--

1361
01:05:55,884 --> 01:05:58,821
-Oh, that'll stop the confidence.
-[Michael] What a kick from The Undertaker

1362
01:05:59,522 --> 01:06:01,825
[Michael] Just when you think
you got The Undertaker reeling,

1363
01:06:02,091 --> 01:06:03,560
he gets right back in the game.

1364
01:06:03,759 --> 01:06:06,763
[JBL] Kennedy made a mistake,
he let the referee break him

1365
01:06:06,830 --> 01:06:09,966
stomping on The Undertaker,
you simply can't do that.

1366
01:06:10,033 --> 01:06:14,169
[Michael] Again, Undertaker
to the second rope going for old school.

1367
01:06:14,236 --> 01:06:15,805
He's already weak in the shoulder.

1368
01:06:16,105 --> 01:06:19,042
Undertaker, the roll
to the back of the shoulder,

1369
01:06:19,107 --> 01:06:22,377
the rotator cuff, again,
Mr. Kennedy in trouble.

1370
01:06:22,712 --> 01:06:26,816
[JBL] And Michael, if Undertaker
gets in a groove, he is hell.

1371
01:06:28,183 --> 01:06:29,986
-[Michael] Face first.
-[JBL] Flatliner.

1372
01:06:30,185 --> 01:06:32,288
[Michael] Into the cover, shoulders down,

1373
01:06:32,355 --> 01:06:37,060
could be it, Mr. Kennedy,
instinctively perhaps, kicks out.

1374
01:06:41,631 --> 01:06:46,468
[JBL] Mr. Kennedy so far hasn't mounted
any offense of any importance.

1375
01:06:46,535 --> 01:06:48,705
[crowd chanting]
Kennedy! Kennedy! Kennedy!

1376
01:06:48,770 --> 01:06:50,540
[JBL] Smart. Smart.

1377
01:06:50,607 --> 01:06:54,143
[Michael] And look at this,
Mr. Kennedy is, I believe, loosening

1378
01:06:54,544 --> 01:06:57,247
that protective top covering
to the steel turnbuckle.

1379
01:07:00,716 --> 01:07:02,752
Undertaker and the referee, oblivious to--

1380
01:07:02,819 --> 01:07:06,089
The pad has been removed,
the protection of that steel turnbuckle

1381
01:07:06,154 --> 01:07:08,323
has been removed by Mr. Kennedy,

1382
01:07:08,758 --> 01:07:12,060
as Undertaker follows it up
with a clothesline, into the cover,

1383
01:07:12,127 --> 01:07:14,096
referee in position, kickout at two.

1384
01:07:14,430 --> 01:07:15,932
[JBL] Turnbuckle's exposed.

1385
01:07:16,966 --> 01:07:18,634
[Michael] That is solid steel.

1386
01:07:19,102 --> 01:07:21,004
The protective covering
has been ripped off

1387
01:07:21,069 --> 01:07:22,571
by Mr. Kennedy, but can he use it?

1388
01:07:22,672 --> 01:07:25,174
[JBL] That's one thing Mr. Kennedy has,
very few people have,

1389
01:07:25,241 --> 01:07:28,310
you're in with The Undertaker,
you're using your brain, you're thinking.

1390
01:07:28,711 --> 01:07:32,781
Even while taking a beating,
he has enough cognitive complexity

1391
01:07:32,881 --> 01:07:35,984
to think about a way
to outsmart The Undertaker.

1392
01:07:36,051 --> 01:07:38,288
[Michael] Cognitive complexity,
I can't even say it.

1393
01:07:38,754 --> 01:07:40,089
[JBL] There's a reason.

1394
01:07:40,423 --> 01:07:41,823
[Michael] What does that mean, actually?

1395
01:07:42,225 --> 01:07:43,259
[JBL] It means you're complex,

1396
01:07:43,326 --> 01:07:46,428
it means you can think about more things
than one thing at once.

1397
01:07:46,729 --> 01:07:49,866
If you're not complex, you're simple,
and I would suggest you would be simple.

1398
01:07:49,966 --> 01:07:52,435
It goes with a short bus
you probably rode to school.

1399
01:07:52,502 --> 01:07:54,169
[Michael] Undertaker with that big hand

1400
01:07:54,236 --> 01:07:56,406
just wrapped around the neck
of Mr. Kennedy.

1401
01:07:56,471 --> 01:07:59,908
There is the intimidation we've talked
about directed at the referee.

1402
01:08:00,475 --> 01:08:05,013
And Undertaker, nobody home,
hung up top rope, fell over the top rope.

1403
01:08:05,181 --> 01:08:07,250
Mr. Kennedy, can he take advantage?

1404
01:08:07,616 --> 01:08:09,051
[Mr. Kennedy grunts]

1405
01:08:09,118 --> 01:08:12,087
[Michael] Undertaker driven off the apron
to the barricade.

1406
01:08:12,154 --> 01:08:15,591
[JBL] Here's his chance.
Mr. Kennedy, jump on him.

1407
01:08:17,059 --> 01:08:18,728
Mr. Kennedy, get on him.

1408
01:08:19,629 --> 01:08:21,731
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy,
still trying to get some blood flow,

1409
01:08:21,965 --> 01:08:23,433
some feeling back to the shoulder.

1410
01:08:23,666 --> 01:08:24,901
As we take another look,

1411
01:08:24,968 --> 01:08:28,170
Undertaker, driven skull first,
you saw almost--

1412
01:08:28,537 --> 01:08:31,073
The Undertaker's eyes roll
in the back of his head

1413
01:08:31,139 --> 01:08:34,410
and this one not done on purpose
like Taker sometimes does.

1414
01:08:36,312 --> 01:08:38,680
[JBL] It's Undertaker, dude.
You do not want to call him Taker.

1415
01:08:38,747 --> 01:08:40,983
-[Michael] All right, The Undertaker.
-[JBL] What the hell is wrong with you?

1416
01:08:41,050 --> 01:08:42,151
[Michael] I apologize.

1417
01:08:42,684 --> 01:08:46,822
As Mr. Kennedy stomps away
at The Undertaker outside the ring.

1418
01:08:49,291 --> 01:08:50,393
[referee] …four…

1419
01:08:51,059 --> 01:08:52,060
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy.

1420
01:08:52,127 --> 01:08:55,231
[JBL] Mr. Kennedy better hop on him
right now and not let him up.

1421
01:08:55,365 --> 01:08:57,867
The first real offense Mr. Kennedy's had.

1422
01:08:58,001 --> 01:09:01,770
Smart. Smart. Now get on him.
And stay on him.

1423
01:09:02,304 --> 01:09:04,040
[crowd cheering]

1424
01:09:04,874 --> 01:09:06,843
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy
rolling back into the ring.

1425
01:09:07,676 --> 01:09:09,112
[JBL] I wouldn't leave him this long.

1426
01:09:09,178 --> 01:09:10,412
[Michael] Undertaker is hurting.

1427
01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:13,316
[crowd chatter]

1428
01:09:14,384 --> 01:09:16,352
What are you doing? Stay in the ring now.

1429
01:09:16,419 --> 01:09:17,987
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy out to the apron.

1430
01:09:18,121 --> 01:09:19,589
-[Michael] Look at that arm…
-[JBL] Telegraphed it.

1431
01:09:19,656 --> 01:09:21,256
-…and he's caught.
-[JBL] Telegraphed it.

1432
01:09:21,523 --> 01:09:23,192
-Damn it, Kennedy.
-[Michael] Wasting too much time.

1433
01:09:23,291 --> 01:09:24,961
[JBL] Kennedy took way too much time!

1434
01:09:25,060 --> 01:09:26,629
-No!
-[Michael] Look, it's spine first

1435
01:09:26,728 --> 01:09:28,865
into the steel by The Undertaker.

1436
01:09:29,298 --> 01:09:31,233
Mr. Kennedy took too much time

1437
01:09:31,300 --> 01:09:34,103
and the veteran,
The Undertaker capitalized.

1438
01:09:34,202 --> 01:09:37,139
[JBL] You can breathe
when you die, Michael.

1439
01:09:37,206 --> 01:09:40,108
You can breathe after the match.
You can sleep when you die.

1440
01:09:40,175 --> 01:09:43,612
Yeah. I think, it's The Undertaker,
he's got to be all confused.

1441
01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:45,281
You breathe after the match.

1442
01:09:45,514 --> 01:09:49,117
If you're tired,
don't show it against The Undertaker.

1443
01:09:49,218 --> 01:09:52,154
You realize how rare it is
to get this man down?

1444
01:09:52,421 --> 01:09:54,824
Kennedy cannot leave him.
He made a mistake.

1445
01:09:55,058 --> 01:09:56,826
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy can hardly stand

1446
01:09:56,959 --> 01:10:00,897
after being driven
spine first into the steel.

1447
01:10:01,130 --> 01:10:05,233
Undertaker into the cover, shoulders down,
kickout at two by Kennedy.

1448
01:10:09,472 --> 01:10:14,677
[JBL] Kennedy's got to find a way
to get back on top of The Undertaker.

1449
01:10:14,744 --> 01:10:18,014
Mr. Kennedy has absorbed
a tremendous amount of punishment.

1450
01:10:18,081 --> 01:10:23,086
And Mr. Kennedy driving The Undertaker
through the second rope to the mat below.

1451
01:10:23,219 --> 01:10:26,755
And it buys Mr. Kennedy some time
and you hear Kennedy yelling,

1452
01:10:26,822 --> 01:10:29,559
"count him out"
to referee, Charles Robinson.

1453
01:10:29,759 --> 01:10:31,394
[crowd chatter]

1454
01:10:31,594 --> 01:10:32,628
…two…

1455
01:10:35,130 --> 01:10:36,299
three…

1456
01:10:37,532 --> 01:10:40,169
[Michael]
Undertaker slowly back to his feet.

1457
01:10:42,170 --> 01:10:43,773
-Undertaker…
-…five…

1458
01:10:46,608 --> 01:10:48,411
…trying to make it back to the ring.

1459
01:10:48,544 --> 01:10:52,749
At least, what this did for Mr. Kennedy
was buy him some time to try to regroup.

1460
01:10:53,049 --> 01:10:55,284
[JBL] There you go. There you go.

1461
01:10:56,919 --> 01:10:59,889
[Michael] Undertaker landing
on his shoulder, I believe.

1462
01:11:00,056 --> 01:11:03,659
Mr. Kennedy rolls into the cover,
perhaps an upset in the making,

1463
01:11:03,793 --> 01:11:07,295
shoulders down, you see how Kennedy
kept the arm from going under the rope,

1464
01:11:07,362 --> 01:11:09,565
but Undertaker got his foot
on the bottom rope.

1465
01:11:09,699 --> 01:11:12,335
[JBL] That's what Kennedy needs to do
to turn this match around,

1466
01:11:12,401 --> 01:11:16,438
to capitalize on a mistake
that The Undertaker could make.

1467
01:11:18,974 --> 01:11:23,946
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy stomping away,
realizes how important this match is

1468
01:11:24,013 --> 01:11:25,715
for his career and his legacy.

1469
01:11:26,148 --> 01:11:27,349
[JBL] And look at Kennedy go.

1470
01:11:27,884 --> 01:11:30,553
Kennedy is impressing me tonight.

1471
01:11:31,154 --> 01:11:33,623
The guy is taking it to The Undertaker.

1472
01:11:36,092 --> 01:11:38,661
You never know how a guy's
gonna react against The Phenom

1473
01:11:38,728 --> 01:11:40,362
until he gets in the ring with him.

1474
01:11:40,429 --> 01:11:42,831
Some guys climb into a shell,

1475
01:11:42,898 --> 01:11:46,568
some guys will do what Kennedy's doing
and rise to the occasion.

1476
01:11:46,635 --> 01:11:49,272
[Michael] Again, shoots the half cover,
shoulders down, two,

1477
01:11:49,338 --> 01:11:51,307
kickout by The Undertaker at two.

1478
01:11:52,575 --> 01:11:53,843
Mr. Kennedy.

1479
01:11:54,143 --> 01:11:56,946
[JBL] And people in North Carolina
are shocked right now.

1480
01:11:57,013 --> 01:11:59,816
They can't believe
their beloved Undertaker

1481
01:11:59,949 --> 01:12:03,385
is taking a beating
like Mr. Kennedy is putting on him.

1482
01:12:03,452 --> 01:12:05,655
[Michael] Well, Mr. Kennedy
is taking to The Undertaker

1483
01:12:06,355 --> 01:12:10,593
as he shoves that boot
right into the throat of The Phenom.

1484
01:12:11,260 --> 01:12:15,898
Undertaker is a bit wobbly,
can't quite find his feet,

1485
01:12:16,866 --> 01:12:19,635
-doesn't have his legs under him.
-[crowd cheering]

1486
01:12:19,702 --> 01:12:22,737
[Michael] The Undertaker chants begin
by the SmackDown fans

1487
01:12:22,839 --> 01:12:24,486
here at North Carolina State University.

1488
01:12:24,586 --> 01:12:26,075
[JBL] It's not going to do him any good.

1489
01:12:26,309 --> 01:12:29,512
And might I ask you, Michael,
how many times have you seen--

1490
01:12:29,579 --> 01:12:34,150
[Michael] Oh! Did you see that boot
right to the temple?

1491
01:12:36,919 --> 01:12:39,554
-[JBL] Wow.
-[Michael] Undertaker nearly motionless.

1492
01:12:42,258 --> 01:12:44,327
Is The Undertaker out cold?

1493
01:12:45,027 --> 01:12:49,232
Is The Phenom out cold?
It appears that way. Watch this.

1494
01:12:50,532 --> 01:12:52,602
Throws the cover, hook to the leg.

1495
01:12:52,668 --> 01:12:55,071
An upset in the making
and a kickout at two.

1496
01:12:59,008 --> 01:13:02,245
[JBL] Anytime you wobble,
The Phenom will attack.

1497
01:13:02,545 --> 01:13:03,679
It's unheard of.

1498
01:13:05,147 --> 01:13:07,383
[Michael]
Mr. Kennedy continuing the assault,

1499
01:13:07,483 --> 01:13:12,288
dropping the elbows to the sternum,
blow to the heart, hook to the leg,

1500
01:13:12,420 --> 01:13:16,992
shoulders down, kickout again,
but barely by The Undertaker.

1501
01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:21,130
Is Mr. Kennedy getting frustrated
or is he just becoming more aggressive?

1502
01:13:21,197 --> 01:13:22,764
[JBL] He's becoming more aggressive.

1503
01:13:22,831 --> 01:13:26,736
He realized what he has to do as
he can't relax pressure on The Undertaker.

1504
01:13:26,903 --> 01:13:30,339
No matter what happens,
you stay on top of this man.

1505
01:13:30,539 --> 01:13:32,742
How many times have you had to hear fans

1506
01:13:32,808 --> 01:13:35,911
cheering for The Undertaker
because he's getting beat up?

1507
01:13:36,712 --> 01:13:39,482
[Michael] Undertaker with the right hand,
trying to get back in the game.

1508
01:13:39,581 --> 01:13:41,483
Mr. Kennedy with the right hand as well.

1509
01:13:41,550 --> 01:13:43,853
Undertaker with the big right to the gut.

1510
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:45,554
[Mr. Kennedy groans]

1511
01:13:45,621 --> 01:13:47,889
[Michael]
Rights and lefts, here comes the striker,

1512
01:13:47,956 --> 01:13:50,492
The Undertaker with a big uppercut.

1513
01:13:50,693 --> 01:13:52,260
Mr. Kennedy's reeling.

1514
01:13:52,327 --> 01:13:54,964
[crowd cheering]

1515
01:13:55,031 --> 01:13:58,099
[Michael] Clothesline knocks
Mr. Kennedy over the top rope

1516
01:13:58,501 --> 01:14:02,471
and suddenly, just like that,
The Phenom is back in the game.

1517
01:14:03,839 --> 01:14:07,009
[JBL] Oh, no. This is not good, Michael.

1518
01:14:07,576 --> 01:14:11,981
[Michael] Not good at all
with Mr. Kennedy is in trouble,

1519
01:14:12,048 --> 01:14:15,251
Undertaker setting him up on the apron.

1520
01:14:15,818 --> 01:14:17,486
-Oh, my.
-[JBL] No.

1521
01:14:17,553 --> 01:14:19,922
[Michael] This is vintage Undertaker,
driving to get the elbow,

1522
01:14:19,989 --> 01:14:22,124
the point of the elbow to the skull.

1523
01:14:22,625 --> 01:14:26,094
[JBL] Vintage Undertaker
is bad Undertaker, I've been there.

1524
01:14:26,462 --> 01:14:29,264
There's nothing pleasant
about being there. Oh, no.

1525
01:14:29,331 --> 01:14:33,568
[Michael] Three hundred pound
leg drop across the throat.

1526
01:14:33,635 --> 01:14:37,406
[crowd chatter]

1527
01:14:37,473 --> 01:14:41,978
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy falling
like a heap to the floor below.

1528
01:14:42,044 --> 01:14:44,045
[referee] Help Kennedy inside, now.

1529
01:14:44,112 --> 01:14:45,414
Leave him out here, man.

1530
01:14:45,548 --> 01:14:47,750
[JBL] Momentum has switched
again, Michael.

1531
01:14:48,284 --> 01:14:51,053
Right when you think
Kennedy's getting on top of this guy,

1532
01:14:51,153 --> 01:14:53,222
The Undertaker does something like this.

1533
01:14:53,856 --> 01:14:57,492
[Michael] JBL, you have been
on the receiving end of that leg drop.

1534
01:14:57,559 --> 01:14:58,995
What does it feel like?

1535
01:14:59,161 --> 01:15:01,864
[JBL] It feels like a Volkswagen
dropping on your chest.

1536
01:15:01,931 --> 01:15:03,833
It knocks all of the wind out of you.

1537
01:15:03,898 --> 01:15:07,570
It braces down, hits you on the jaw,
gets you all woozy.

1538
01:15:07,737 --> 01:15:10,406
I tell you something,
there's nothing like looking up

1539
01:15:10,572 --> 01:15:12,074
-and seeing The Undertaker…
-[Michael] Look at this.

1540
01:15:12,174 --> 01:15:13,376
-Look at this.
-[JBL] …coming down on you.

1541
01:15:13,476 --> 01:15:16,012
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy has perhaps going
for the Tombstone Piledriver.

1542
01:15:16,077 --> 01:15:17,713
This is The Undertaker's maneuver.

1543
01:15:18,214 --> 01:15:19,382
Can he deliver?

1544
01:15:19,482 --> 01:15:23,119
Oh, my. Oh, my.

1545
01:15:23,818 --> 01:15:27,023
Mr. Kennedy into the cover,
I can't believe it.

1546
01:15:27,156 --> 01:15:29,224
And Undertaker kicked out

1547
01:15:29,358 --> 01:15:33,462
but Mr. Kennedy delivered
the Piledriver to The Undertaker.

1548
01:15:35,231 --> 01:15:38,233
I don't-- I've never seen that.
Are you in shock?

1549
01:15:38,701 --> 01:15:40,102
[JBL] I'm in complete shock.

1550
01:15:42,170 --> 01:15:45,840
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy trying to--
And here's the cover again.

1551
01:15:46,075 --> 01:15:47,876
And again,
Undertaker got the shoulder up.

1552
01:15:47,943 --> 01:15:49,478
[JBL] I wanna go on a limb
right now, Michael,

1553
01:15:49,545 --> 01:15:52,248
and tell you Kennedy
is going to win this thing.

1554
01:15:52,313 --> 01:15:53,983
[Michael] I can't--
but I may agree with you.

1555
01:15:54,050 --> 01:15:56,919
I can't believe he just delivered
the Tombstone to The Undertaker.

1556
01:15:58,087 --> 01:16:01,490
[JBL] Every time The Undertaker
is regaining the momentum,

1557
01:16:01,557 --> 01:16:05,094
Kennedy has found a way
to get back the lead.

1558
01:16:05,161 --> 01:16:07,663
[Michael] And Mr. Kennedy trying
to take advantage of the Piledriver

1559
01:16:07,730 --> 01:16:08,998
as we take another look.

1560
01:16:09,065 --> 01:16:10,666
Watch this. Unbelievable.

1561
01:16:10,933 --> 01:16:13,202
I don't-- I don't remember
the last time we've seen

1562
01:16:13,302 --> 01:16:15,204
somebody counter The Undertaker

1563
01:16:15,337 --> 01:16:19,407
and did you see how The Undertaker's neck
and he's having his body folded up.

1564
01:16:20,209 --> 01:16:24,246
And this is a submission maneuver,
or I should say, a sleeper hold,

1565
01:16:24,413 --> 01:16:26,315
trying to knock The Undertaker out,

1566
01:16:26,382 --> 01:16:29,151
and if The Undertaker faints,
Kennedy is gonna pull an upset.

1567
01:16:29,218 --> 01:16:30,986
[JBL] And now a triangle choke,
but either way,

1568
01:16:31,053 --> 01:16:33,355
look at Undertaker's face,
it's turning purple.

1569
01:16:33,556 --> 01:16:35,624
Air is going out of this man's lungs.

1570
01:16:35,891 --> 01:16:37,992
Blood is going out of this man's brain.

1571
01:16:38,059 --> 01:16:40,896
[Michael] This would be an upset
of monumental proportions.

1572
01:16:41,030 --> 01:16:43,965
[JBL] Can you imagine,
he's about to choke out The Undertaker.

1573
01:16:44,099 --> 01:16:45,800
[Michael] And The Undertaker
keeping the arm up.

1574
01:16:46,469 --> 01:16:50,539
Mr. Kennedy continues
to keep the hold locked in.

1575
01:16:51,139 --> 01:16:55,478
Undertaker trying to get back into this,
but Kennedy, after that Piledriver.

1576
01:16:56,178 --> 01:16:58,947
[JBL] I can't believe it.
I've never seen The Undertaker

1577
01:16:59,014 --> 01:17:02,718
picked up and Piledrived
like Mr. Kennedy just did.

1578
01:17:03,952 --> 01:17:07,255
Unbelievable, something I didn't think
we'd see tonight, Michael.

1579
01:17:07,456 --> 01:17:08,456
[Michael] Well, we did.

1580
01:17:09,291 --> 01:17:13,529
We've seen a lot of unbelievable things
at No Mercy and plenty is still to come,

1581
01:17:13,762 --> 01:17:16,565
but the story that is developing here,
ladies and gentlemen--

1582
01:17:16,632 --> 01:17:17,933
Oh, and The Undertaker.

1583
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:19,168
Dropping side suplex.

1584
01:17:19,235 --> 01:17:21,170
[JBL] Kennedy has found a way--
got to find a way

1585
01:17:21,237 --> 01:17:24,039
to not let the momentum
switch back to The Undertaker.

1586
01:17:24,106 --> 01:17:25,206
[Michael] Great point.

1587
01:17:25,273 --> 01:17:26,608
[JBL] He's got him hurt here.

1588
01:17:26,675 --> 01:17:29,745
He's got to find a way
to stay on top of this man.

1589
01:17:29,812 --> 01:17:31,013
[Michael] But how do you do that?

1590
01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:33,482
[JBL] You do whatever
you have to do, Michael.

1591
01:17:33,616 --> 01:17:37,419
He pulled The Undertaker--
The Piledriver totally out of his hat.

1592
01:17:37,553 --> 01:17:39,688
-Pull something else out.
-[Michael] His big right hands.

1593
01:17:39,755 --> 01:17:41,290
Undertaker with a right of his own.

1594
01:17:41,357 --> 01:17:45,594
Kennedy and Undertaker exchanging blows
in what has been a physical battle.

1595
01:17:45,661 --> 01:17:47,862
[JBL] Don't trade blows
with The Undertaker,

1596
01:17:47,929 --> 01:17:49,898
poke him in the eyes,
kick him in the groin,

1597
01:17:49,965 --> 01:17:51,333
whatever you have to do.

1598
01:17:51,400 --> 01:17:53,536
Don't match fists with The Deadman.

1599
01:17:53,869 --> 01:17:55,704
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy, kick to the knee.

1600
01:17:56,338 --> 01:17:58,641
[JBL] It's okay. It's what you have to do.

1601
01:17:58,706 --> 01:18:01,242
[Michael] Reversal,
Undertaker missed clothesline.

1602
01:18:01,610 --> 01:18:03,179
[JBL] That is vintage Undertaker.

1603
01:18:03,245 --> 01:18:05,080
[Michael] The following clothesline.

1604
01:18:08,717 --> 01:18:10,318
[JBL] Don't stay there Mr. Kennedy.

1605
01:18:10,818 --> 01:18:14,889
[Michael] Undertaker, 300-pound frame,
following up that running clothesline.

1606
01:18:16,157 --> 01:18:18,594
Another clothesline by The Undertaker.

1607
01:18:20,795 --> 01:18:22,431
Mr. Kennedy in trouble.

1608
01:18:22,498 --> 01:18:26,702
Undertaker, oh, my,
roll of the dice, snake eyes.

1609
01:18:27,001 --> 01:18:29,471
-[JBL] Watch out, Kennedy.
-[Michael] A boot to the skull.

1610
01:18:30,105 --> 01:18:32,308
Undertaker, trying to griddle up the mush.

1611
01:18:34,175 --> 01:18:35,711
A big legdrop by The Undertaker.

1612
01:18:35,978 --> 01:18:37,346
-Into the cover.
-[JBL] This is it.

1613
01:18:37,446 --> 01:18:40,416
[Michael] The dream may be over
for Mr. Kennedy, no, a kickout at two.

1614
01:18:43,251 --> 01:18:44,320
Watch the move.

1615
01:18:46,054 --> 01:18:47,456
Right at the end of the mush.

1616
01:18:48,791 --> 01:18:51,492
-Oh, my.
-[JBL] That's it. This is it.

1617
01:18:52,061 --> 01:18:53,728
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy doesn't realize it.

1618
01:18:53,829 --> 01:18:56,264
Hell of a fight Mr. Kennedy put up.

1619
01:18:56,632 --> 01:18:58,666
[Michael] Undertaker measuring this man.

1620
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:00,836
Mr. Kennedy is gonna go up for the ride.

1621
01:19:00,902 --> 01:19:03,138
[crowd cheering]

1622
01:19:03,806 --> 01:19:05,241
[Michael] Oh, look at Mr. Kennedy.

1623
01:19:05,374 --> 01:19:07,343
Mr. Kennedy just grabbed the referee.

1624
01:19:09,577 --> 01:19:12,414
Trying to keep himself
from going up with a Chokeslam.

1625
01:19:12,781 --> 01:19:15,017
Mr. Kennedy swinging that breaker.

1626
01:19:15,451 --> 01:19:17,853
[JBL] What a move.
What a move. He may steal one.

1627
01:19:17,952 --> 01:19:19,788
[Michael] Crawl to the cover,
two with a kickout.

1628
01:19:21,857 --> 01:19:25,960
[JBL] Kennedy is actually
going move for move with The Undertaker.

1629
01:19:26,061 --> 01:19:29,898
[Michael] That he is, and now Mr. Kennedy
begging The Undertaker to get to his feet.

1630
01:19:30,165 --> 01:19:31,967
[JBL] What a way to raise his game.

1631
01:19:32,067 --> 01:19:34,902
-[Michael] Went for this wild enzuigiri.
-[JBL] Done. Done.

1632
01:19:35,036 --> 01:19:37,473
[Michael]
Undertaker, hand around the throat.

1633
01:19:37,606 --> 01:19:40,242
-Mr. Kennedy, Chokeslam.
-[crowd cheering]

1634
01:19:40,976 --> 01:19:42,510
[JBL] Valiant effort though, Michael.

1635
01:19:42,577 --> 01:19:44,446
Valiant effort by Mr. Kennedy.

1636
01:19:44,513 --> 01:19:46,782
[Michael] A Chokeslam and Undertaker.

1637
01:19:46,849 --> 01:19:49,351
[crowd cheering]

1638
01:19:50,318 --> 01:19:51,920
[JBL] Nighty night, sweet prince.

1639
01:19:53,722 --> 01:19:55,124
[Michael] Kick to the midsection.

1640
01:19:55,190 --> 01:19:57,326
[JBL]And I thought he had him.
I thought Kennedy had him.

1641
01:19:57,393 --> 01:19:58,427
-Damn it.
-[Michael] Here we go.

1642
01:19:58,494 --> 01:19:59,764
[JBL] Damn it, I thought he had him.

1643
01:19:59,915 --> 01:20:03,831
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy going for the ride,
feverishly battling his way out.

1644
01:20:05,200 --> 01:20:07,835
Mr. Kennedy almost ran
into the referee again.

1645
01:20:11,307 --> 01:20:13,876
And look at this. And remember,
the exposed turnbuckle.

1646
01:20:14,108 --> 01:20:17,846
Remember the turnbuckle was exposed,
Kennedy bouncing The Undertaker's skull…

1647
01:20:17,913 --> 01:20:19,281
-[JBL] Unbelievable.
-…towards the steel.

1648
01:20:19,415 --> 01:20:22,851
[JBL] Twenty minutes after he did it,
he thought about it.

1649
01:20:24,420 --> 01:20:26,955
[Michael] Big clothesline by Mr. Kennedy.

1650
01:20:28,123 --> 01:20:32,061
But Undertaker's skull
just bounced off that steel turnbuckle.

1651
01:20:32,494 --> 01:20:33,728
And now Mr. Kennedy up.

1652
01:20:34,330 --> 01:20:36,498
Going to go to the top rope?

1653
01:20:37,232 --> 01:20:39,168
[JBL] What the hell is he trying to do?

1654
01:20:39,233 --> 01:20:41,370
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy off the top rope.

1655
01:20:41,603 --> 01:20:42,603
Oh, no.

1656
01:20:43,639 --> 01:20:45,340
Not the Kenton Bomb.

1657
01:20:46,108 --> 01:20:49,111
-Kennedy connected.
-[JBL] He's got him. He's got him.

1658
01:20:49,210 --> 01:20:50,813
-[Michael] An upset…
-[JBL] Kennedy has him.

1659
01:20:50,879 --> 01:20:53,081
of huge proportions, and he got him.

1660
01:20:53,514 --> 01:20:56,085
No, he didn't.
Undertaker rolled the shoulder up.

1661
01:20:56,151 --> 01:20:57,553
Kennedy cannot believe it.

1662
01:21:01,156 --> 01:21:03,826
-Wow.
-[JBL] What a match up.

1663
01:21:04,626 --> 01:21:05,994
-Uh-oh.
-[Michael] Oh, my God.

1664
01:21:06,094 --> 01:21:08,130
Did you see the look
in the eyes of Mr. Kennedy?

1665
01:21:08,263 --> 01:21:10,065
[JBL] He's never seen that before.

1666
01:21:10,398 --> 01:21:14,603
Michael, he's never seen that before,
there's nothing like The Undertaker.

1667
01:21:14,670 --> 01:21:16,038
[Michael] Wait a minute. Mr. Kennedy's got

1668
01:21:16,138 --> 01:21:17,973
-the United States Championship.
-[JBL] Damn one of these guys.

1669
01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:20,275
-[Michael] What the hell is this?
-[JBL] He better do whatever he can.

1670
01:21:20,342 --> 01:21:22,978
Give me the thing, give me the thing.
Give me the damn thing now!

1671
01:21:23,411 --> 01:21:24,545
-Give it to me.
-[crowd chatter]

1672
01:21:24,646 --> 01:21:26,215
[Michael] A tug of war with the referee.

1673
01:21:26,348 --> 01:21:27,983
Right hand by The Undertaker.

1674
01:21:30,585 --> 01:21:34,223
And now Undertaker's got
the United States Championship.

1675
01:21:35,491 --> 01:21:37,492
[Charles] Hey, hey, hey.
I told you, don't do it.

1676
01:21:37,893 --> 01:21:39,193
-Don't do it.
-[Michael] Uh-oh.

1677
01:21:39,862 --> 01:21:41,463
Measuring Mr. Kennedy.

1678
01:21:41,730 --> 01:21:44,867
-The title, the championship on the skull.
-[bell ringing]

1679
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:46,335
[JBL] No mercy.

1680
01:21:47,702 --> 01:21:49,571
That man has no mercy.

1681
01:21:50,272 --> 01:21:52,808
He asked for none,
he damn sure gives none.

1682
01:21:52,875 --> 01:21:55,477
[crowd cheering]

1683
01:21:57,478 --> 01:22:00,581
-["Turn Up the Trouble" playing]
-[Michael] Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Uh-oh.

1684
01:22:01,150 --> 01:22:02,483
Well, the referee just declaring

1685
01:22:02,584 --> 01:22:05,454
Mr. Kennedy the winner
via disqualification.

1686
01:22:05,521 --> 01:22:07,356
And I believe Charles Robinson

1687
01:22:07,423 --> 01:22:09,458
is gonna rue the day
that he made that move.

1688
01:22:09,525 --> 01:22:10,858
[JBL] You shouldn't have made that mad.

1689
01:22:11,360 --> 01:22:14,096
You should never make Undertaker mad.

1690
01:22:14,797 --> 01:22:17,398
Talk about taking your life
in your own hands,

1691
01:22:17,599 --> 01:22:19,201
get out of the ring, Mr. Kennedy.

1692
01:22:20,436 --> 01:22:24,239
[Michael] Undertaker just
plowing over Mr. Kennedy.

1693
01:22:27,576 --> 01:22:29,911
[JBL] He's in the mood
to destroy somebody.

1694
01:22:30,813 --> 01:22:32,080
I've been there, Michael.

1695
01:22:33,081 --> 01:22:36,050
There's nothing you can do
to stop Undertaker right now

1696
01:22:36,117 --> 01:22:37,786
unless he gets enough.

1697
01:22:38,387 --> 01:22:40,022
This man, this man is sick.

1698
01:22:41,790 --> 01:22:42,891
He's an animal.

1699
01:22:43,492 --> 01:22:46,027
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy not realizing
what waits for him.

1700
01:22:46,128 --> 01:22:50,264
Mr. Kennedy up on his shoulder,
in trouble.

1701
01:22:50,666 --> 01:22:53,035
Tombstone Piledriver.

1702
01:22:57,105 --> 01:22:58,173
["Rest In Peace" playing]

1703
01:22:58,240 --> 01:23:01,543
[Michael] I believe Mr. Kennedy
should not have made The Undertaker mad.

1704
01:23:04,012 --> 01:23:06,815
[JBL] I suggest to Mr. Kennedy,
you got your win,

1705
01:23:06,982 --> 01:23:10,117
you defeated a fourth world champion
albeit DQ,

1706
01:23:10,518 --> 01:23:13,222
I suggest you get your ass
and get out of town.

1707
01:23:13,355 --> 01:23:15,190
[Michael]
And Mr. Kennedy did get the victory

1708
01:23:15,257 --> 01:23:18,727
because the referee
disqualified The Undertaker

1709
01:23:18,893 --> 01:23:21,396
for using the United States Championship.

1710
01:23:23,799 --> 01:23:25,467
But despite what Mr. Kennedy says--

1711
01:23:25,534 --> 01:23:27,469
[JBL] Watch, Michael. Look at this.

1712
01:23:29,304 --> 01:23:31,507
-[Michael] Now what?
-[JBL] I told you,

1713
01:23:31,807 --> 01:23:33,474
when Undertaker gets in this mood,

1714
01:23:33,575 --> 01:23:37,012
he is hell-bent destroying
on everything in sight.

1715
01:23:38,347 --> 01:23:40,182
Just hope he doesn't come after you.

1716
01:23:41,450 --> 01:23:44,853
[Michael] The referee, Charles Robinson,
the man who disqualified The Undertaker.

1717
01:23:47,389 --> 01:23:49,590
Oh, my. Oh, my.

1718
01:23:49,992 --> 01:23:52,193
Oh, no. Oh, no.

1719
01:23:53,562 --> 01:23:56,231
Tombstone Piledriver to the referee.

1720
01:23:56,898 --> 01:24:02,371
[JBL] There's no reason for that except
for the fact that he's The Undertaker.

1721
01:24:02,571 --> 01:24:05,474
He does what he wants when he wants.

1722
01:24:05,541 --> 01:24:07,709
["Rest In Peace" playing]

1723
01:24:07,776 --> 01:24:08,844
[Michael] Oh, wait a minute.

1724
01:24:08,911 --> 01:24:12,114
It was Mr. Kennedy who brought
the United State Championship

1725
01:24:12,179 --> 01:24:13,815
into the ring in the first place.

1726
01:24:14,782 --> 01:24:16,785
[JBL] Yeah, but it was Undertaker
who used it.

1727
01:24:18,420 --> 01:24:21,523
[Michael] Mr. Kennedy picks up the win
via disqualification,

1728
01:24:21,690 --> 01:24:24,326
but despite what Kennedy says, JBL,

1729
01:24:24,593 --> 01:24:29,598
I believe The Undertaker's decade
and a half of destruction is not over.

1730
01:24:29,665 --> 01:24:33,168
-There's more coming.
-[JBL] Typical Undertaker match up,

1731
01:24:33,669 --> 01:24:36,138
bodies left everywhere.

1732
01:24:37,940 --> 01:24:40,409
[Michael]
The Undertaker's path of destruction.

1733
01:24:40,474 --> 01:24:45,847
The Undertaker
showing no mercy here tonight.

1734
01:24:46,982 --> 01:24:47,983
Wow.

1735
01:24:51,620 --> 01:24:53,322
[JBL] Kennedy shouldn't have made him mad.

1736
01:24:57,826 --> 01:24:58,960
The guy's an animal.

1737
01:25:12,273 --> 01:25:15,210
And here at No Mercy,
bodies still strewn throughout the arena,

1738
01:25:15,277 --> 01:25:18,347
damaged from the hands
of The Phenom, The Undertaker,

1739
01:25:18,413 --> 01:25:21,583
and where are bodies gonna be strewn
because coming up next,

1740
01:25:21,683 --> 01:25:23,785
it's a Falls Count Anywhere match up,

1741
01:25:23,885 --> 01:25:26,888
and personal rivalry
between Rey Mysterio and Chavo Guerrero.

1742
01:25:26,955 --> 01:25:31,393
It's something that has built for decades
between Rey Mysterio and Chavo Guerrero.

1743
01:25:31,460 --> 01:25:33,929
It's a matter of familia.
It's a matter of pride.

1744
01:25:33,996 --> 01:25:38,500
And today, they get a chance
to finally conclude this rivalry.

[Michael] Ladies and gentlemen,
this personal rivalry has seen

1746
01:25:41,570 --> 01:25:43,839
many twists and turns.
Two men and a woman,

1747
01:25:43,938 --> 01:25:49,777
as close as brothers and sisters
torn apart by greed, jealousy and pride.

1748
01:25:50,411 --> 01:25:51,847
[dramatic music playing]

1749
01:25:51,913 --> 01:25:54,349
-We've been through a lot together, right?
-[Rey] Yeah.

1750
01:25:54,583 --> 01:25:57,486
Your last name is not Guerrero,
but it might as well be.

1751

that dreams do come true.

[commentator] What the hell was that?

1757
01:26:20,575 --> 01:26:25,380
[commentator] Chavo just cost Rey
the world championship.

1758
01:26:25,681 --> 01:26:28,784
[Chavo] Rey Mysterio
did everything he could

1759
01:26:28,849 --> 01:26:31,719
to tie himself to Eddie Guerrero.

1760
01:26:32,721 --> 01:26:36,090
Rey Mysterio, you're nothing but a leech

1761
01:26:36,590 --> 01:26:40,094
living off the blood of the Guerrero name.

1762
01:26:42,264 --> 01:26:44,331
[Vickie] This war on Rey has to stop.

1763
01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:47,001
You're tearing up our familia.

1764
01:26:48,003 --> 01:26:52,674
Rey Mysterio is not part
of the Guerrero family, Vickie.

1765
01:26:53,075 --> 01:26:54,276
Remember that.

-[Michael] Come on, Chavo.
-[JBL] He's gonna finish it.

1771

[Vickie] Eddie thought of you as family.

1772
01:27:23,205 --> 01:27:28,744
I think of you as a brief
insignificant chapter of my past.

1773

I am the new business manager
of Chavo Guerrero.

[JBL] Rey Mysterio in the ring
is not the Rey Mysterio of old.

1777

Rey Mysterio has let this
get into his head.

-Dominick. What's happening?
-Hey, Dominick, hi.

-You're getting big, man.
-[Vickie] Look at you!

battled all throughout the arena

01:29:28,996 --> 01:29:32,334
hence the reason the way

1804
01:29:32,400 --> 01:29:34,302
because JBL, you know as well as I do,

1805

that ring cannot confine the hatred
between these two men.

I don't know if North Carolina

1807
01:29:40,642 --> 01:29:43,812
can confine the hatred
between these two guys.

1808
01:29:43,978 --> 01:29:48,617
This old rivalry that has been brewing
since Tijuana, 15 years ago,

1809
01:29:48,884 --> 01:29:54,289
when Rey Mysterio's uncle
first gave Chavo a job in Tijuana.

1810
01:29:55,090 --> 01:29:59,326
[Michael] And this is how Chavo Guerrero
repays Mysterio and his family,

1811
01:29:59,894 --> 01:30:02,464
-by calling Mysterio a leech.
-[JBL] He is a leech.

1812
01:30:02,530 --> 01:30:04,132
[Michael] That is living
off the Guerrero name.

1813
01:30:04,199 --> 01:30:05,367
[JBL] He's a pathetic leech.

1814
01:30:05,433 --> 01:30:07,102
[Michael]
And there you see Vickie Guerrero,

1815
01:30:07,268 --> 01:30:09,337
Chavo's business manager.

1816
01:30:09,404 --> 01:30:11,539
Who turned her back on Rey as well.

1817
01:30:11,806 --> 01:30:13,375
[JBL] Hey, you watch your mouth, Michael.

1818
01:30:13,474 --> 01:30:16,311
Vickie Guerrero was there backstage
for Rey Mysterio

1819
01:30:16,411 --> 01:30:18,213
when he won a world championship.

1820
01:30:18,480 --> 01:30:19,947
The same as she was for Eddie.

1821
01:30:20,014 --> 01:30:21,849
Do you sense the common denominator?

1822
01:30:21,916 --> 01:30:23,550
She is now with Chavo.

1823
01:30:25,019 --> 01:30:28,389
Common denominator is Vickie Guerrero.

1824
01:30:29,023 --> 01:30:30,724
She comes with champions.

1825
01:30:34,728 --> 01:30:37,365
[singer] ♪ What you gonna do
when we come for you? ♪

1826
01:30:39,768 --> 01:30:41,937
♪ What you gonna do
when we come for you? ♪

1827
01:30:42,003 --> 01:30:45,173
["Booyaka 619" playing]

1828
01:30:46,675 --> 01:30:48,043
[crowd cheering]

1829
01:30:48,610 --> 01:30:51,146
[Chimel] And from San Diego, California

1830
01:30:51,212 --> 01:30:57,552
weighing in at 170 pounds, Rey Mysterio.

1831
01:31:00,889 --> 01:31:03,525
[Michael] Well, this is a different
Rey Mysterio here tonight.

1832
01:31:03,657 --> 01:31:07,896
It is a composed Rey Mysterio,
a competitive Rey Mysterio.

1833
01:31:07,963 --> 01:31:10,031
The heartbreak has gone away.

1834
01:31:10,098 --> 01:31:12,200
-[JBL] Composed--
-[Michael] The anger has replaced it.

1835
01:31:12,267 --> 01:31:14,035
[JBL] Composed my butt.

1836
01:31:14,102 --> 01:31:16,638
This is the least violent thing
we'll see all night.

1837
01:31:16,737 --> 01:31:19,773
These guys are about to tear
each other limb for limb.

1838
01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:22,110
All hell is about to break loose, Michael.

1839
01:31:22,177 --> 01:31:23,210
I love it.

1840
01:31:23,277 --> 01:31:25,746
It's about time
these guys fought themselves

1841
01:31:25,813 --> 01:31:28,650
to one man standing, one man is not.

1842
01:31:29,317 --> 01:31:32,253
[Michael] And there's Vickie Guerrero
putting the bad mouth on Rey Mysterio.

1843
01:31:32,454 --> 01:31:37,358
It was Vickie who called Rey
an insignificant part of her life.

1844
01:31:37,759 --> 01:31:40,795
And that it's time for her
to move on and forget about Rey.

1845
01:31:41,029 --> 01:31:43,197
[JBL] You can't fault her
for what she thinks.

1846
01:31:43,999 --> 01:31:45,000
[Michael] Referee Jimmy Korderas

1847
01:31:45,066 --> 01:31:46,267
-will have his hands full…
-[bell ringing]

1848
01:31:46,367 --> 01:31:48,303
…really no rules in this match up, JBL.

1849
01:31:48,436 --> 01:31:50,672
The only rule is, falls can occur anywhere

1850
01:31:50,739 --> 01:31:54,576
in the RBC Center
here at North Carolina State University.

1851
01:31:55,143 --> 01:31:58,980
[JBL] And what a crazy
psychological match up we have here.

1852
01:31:59,047 --> 01:32:02,684
Both these guys were champ--
were tag team champions in WWE

1853
01:32:02,751 --> 01:32:04,052
with Eddie Guerrero.

1854
01:32:04,251 --> 01:32:06,688
Both think
they are defending Eddie Guerrero.

1855
01:32:07,121 --> 01:32:09,557
This is about the Guerrero name

1856
01:32:09,624 --> 01:32:13,894
that Chavo claims Mysterio has leeched on.

1857
01:32:14,094 --> 01:32:15,764
[Michael] Big uppercut by Chavo Guerrero

1858
01:32:15,830 --> 01:32:18,066
to the former world champion,
Rey Mysterio.

1859
01:32:18,133 --> 01:32:22,070
Chavo cost Rey the world championship
back at The Great American Bash,

1860
01:32:22,137 --> 01:32:23,737
Rey has never forgiven him for it.

1861
01:32:24,938 --> 01:32:26,775
Rey Mysterio with a big right hand.

1862
01:32:26,974 --> 01:32:29,411
Falls Count Anywhere matches
like this, JBL,

1863
01:32:29,477 --> 01:32:33,481
are used to finally try to put an end
to longstanding rivalries.

1864
01:32:33,648 --> 01:32:36,918
We haven't had one in WWE
in nearly a year.

1865
01:32:36,985 --> 01:32:40,054
In fact, just look at the jackknife cover,
but Rey rolled through,

1866
01:32:40,155 --> 01:32:41,723
big right hands by Mysterio.

1867
01:32:41,790 --> 01:32:43,858
The last time we had
a Falls Count Anywhere match up,

1868
01:32:43,958 --> 01:32:46,995
nearly a year ago,
you were involved in it.

1869
01:32:48,329 --> 01:32:50,498
[JBL] I was involved in it
for a very good reason, Michael.

1870
01:32:50,565 --> 01:32:52,700
It's because when a feud
gets so out of hand,

1871
01:32:52,767 --> 01:32:54,536
you either stick them in a cage
or you just say,

1872
01:32:54,602 --> 01:32:57,839
"Listen guys, go out there
and just beat the hell out of each other,

1873
01:32:58,072 --> 01:33:01,576
wherever you get a pinfall,
the concession stand,

1874
01:33:01,643 --> 01:33:03,844
the parking lot, it doesn't matter."

1875
01:33:03,911 --> 01:33:05,947
[Michael]
Rey Mysterio, with Chavo in trouble,

1876
01:33:06,014 --> 01:33:08,183
trying to climb up toward the top rope.

1877
01:33:08,650 --> 01:33:10,951
Chavo with right hands
beating Rey Mysterio

1878
01:33:11,018 --> 01:33:12,587
before he could get up top.

1879
01:33:12,719 --> 01:33:15,590
[JBL] The one thing
you can be sure of tonight,

1880
01:33:16,224 --> 01:33:18,393
there will be a conclusive winner

1881
01:33:18,460 --> 01:33:20,327
and a conclusive loser…

1882
01:33:20,428 --> 01:33:22,130
-[crowd chanting] Eddie! Eddie! Eddie!
-…for these two guys.

1883
01:33:22,230 --> 01:33:25,666
[Michael] Eddie chants begin,
but who will feed off the Eddie chants?

1884
01:33:26,233 --> 01:33:28,103
Will it be Rey or it will be Chavo?

1885
01:33:28,369 --> 01:33:30,405
-Remember, Chavo…
-Move, move, move.

1886
01:33:30,472 --> 01:33:32,373
…believes he's celebrating Eddie's legacy.

1887
01:33:32,440 --> 01:33:33,575
[grunts]

1888
01:33:33,675 --> 01:33:36,678
-[JBL] Uh-oh. What's he gonna do?
-[Michael] Uh-oh. What the hell.

1889
01:33:37,579 --> 01:33:40,782
Rey Mysterio trying to battle out
of this predicament as well.

1890
01:33:41,182 --> 01:33:45,587
Who does this Falls Count Anywhere format
favor out of these two men?

1891
01:33:46,254 --> 01:33:47,589
Oh. Wow.

1892
01:33:48,188 --> 01:33:51,593
Both men knocked off the top rope,
both men are down.

1893
01:33:51,793 --> 01:33:53,428
[JBL] It's gotta favor a Guerrero,

1894
01:33:53,728 --> 01:33:56,130
Falls Count Anywhere,
it's like a bar room brawl,

1895
01:33:56,197 --> 01:34:00,367
that is the one thing
that Guerrero's are extremely good at.

1896
01:34:00,602 --> 01:34:01,803
[Michael] Another look.

1897
01:34:02,070 --> 01:34:04,239
Two right hands, two men on the top rope.

1898
01:34:04,606 --> 01:34:06,541
You see Rey catch his knee on the apron

1899
01:34:06,608 --> 01:34:08,442
as he crashed to the floor below?

1900
01:34:08,742 --> 01:34:12,313
Rey gingerly back to his feet,
but a dropkick to the skull of Chavo.

1901
01:34:13,313 --> 01:34:16,750
You see Vickie in the background,
Chavo's business manager looking on.

1902
01:34:17,317 --> 01:34:20,255
No count outs of course,
no disqualifications.

1903
01:34:20,388 --> 01:34:24,692
The only way you win,
you pin the man anywhere in the arena.

1904
01:34:24,858 --> 01:34:27,161
[crowd chatter]

1905
01:34:27,262 --> 01:34:29,831
[Michael] And Mysterio
hit against the barricade.

1906
01:34:31,599 --> 01:34:35,103
Believe me, no protection whatsoever.

1907
01:34:35,303 --> 01:34:37,105
You could hear the metal clang

1908
01:34:37,272 --> 01:34:39,072
-as Rey Mysterio was run into it.
-This is not your uncle,

1909
01:34:39,474 --> 01:34:40,808
this is not your family.

1910
01:34:41,709 --> 01:34:45,880
[JBL] Rey first got the association
with the Guerreros at AAA in Mexico

1911
01:34:45,947 --> 01:34:47,949
and Eddie was tagging the night bars.

1912
01:34:48,016 --> 01:34:51,085
His first association
with the Guerreros, he said no.

1913
01:34:51,152 --> 01:34:52,754
You wanna fight a Guerrero?

1914
01:34:53,321 --> 01:34:56,523
You better be willing to stand there
until he can't get up.

1915
01:34:57,358 --> 01:34:59,160
[Michael] Chavo continuing
to scream at Rey,

1916
01:34:59,227 --> 01:35:00,394
"This is about Eddie."

1917
01:35:00,962 --> 01:35:03,831
Well, is he trying to convince
Rey about it or convince himself?

1918
01:35:05,166 --> 01:35:07,201
[JBL] What kind of judgmental
statement is that, Michael?

1919
01:35:07,268 --> 01:35:09,103
[Michael] Oh, it's a judgmental--
Oh, look, look!

1920
01:35:09,170 --> 01:35:10,405
And what the hell is Chavo-- Look.

1921
01:35:10,538 --> 01:35:12,340
Oh, my, that is a steel.

1922
01:35:12,407 --> 01:35:14,008
That is steel there, ladies and gentlemen.

1923
01:35:14,209 --> 01:35:16,177
Mysterio hanging on for dear life.

1924
01:35:16,411 --> 01:35:18,246
And that lighting rig…

1925
01:35:19,847 --> 01:35:21,182
He may have saved himself there.

1926
01:35:21,249 --> 01:35:23,218
[crowd cheering]

1927
01:35:23,284 --> 01:35:26,221
[Michael] Mysterio knocking Chavo down.

1928
01:35:27,054 --> 01:35:29,757
Oh, look at this. Wow. Hurricanrana.

1929
01:35:30,358 --> 01:35:33,193
Now, that was making use
of your surroundings.

1930
01:35:35,630 --> 01:35:36,931
[groans]

1931
01:35:36,998 --> 01:35:39,968
[JBL] That steel is not exactly forgiving.

1932
01:35:40,067 --> 01:35:42,837
[Michael] And here's the first cover in
the match up, Falls Count Anywhere.

1933
01:35:43,071 --> 01:35:44,205
Chavo rolled his shoulder out.

1934
01:35:44,505 --> 01:35:45,974
The referee, Jimmy Korderas,

1935
01:35:46,441 --> 01:35:49,009
could hurt himself counting falls
all over the arena.

1936
01:35:49,344 --> 01:35:52,447
[Michael] Shaking his hand that time
and putting through that break.

1937
01:35:52,580 --> 01:35:54,749
[JBL] He's Canadian.
Good, I hope he breaks his hand.

1938
01:35:55,083 --> 01:36:00,021
[Michael] Rey Mysterio, again we talked
about being heartbroken for many weeks.

1939
01:36:00,588 --> 01:36:04,525
That heartbreak turning to anger.
It seemed to be that Chavo and Vickie

1940
01:36:04,959 --> 01:36:07,795
involving Rey's son,
Dominick, into the equation,

1941
01:36:07,996 --> 01:36:09,797
it really turned Rey around.

1942
01:36:10,031 --> 01:36:12,066
It snapped Rey back into reality.

1943
01:36:12,333 --> 01:36:14,235
[JBL] Yeah. But it's like
Rey is the only guy

1944
01:36:14,302 --> 01:36:15,969
who's ever had to pay rent in his life.

1945
01:36:16,337 --> 01:36:18,106
It's like they're saying
Rey was the only guy

1946
01:36:18,172 --> 01:36:19,840
who's had something bad happen to him.

1947
01:36:19,907 --> 01:36:23,644
[Michael] The Stanley Cup champion,
Carolina Hurricanes, ladies and gentlemen,

1948
01:36:23,710 --> 01:36:27,447
you can see the Hurricanrana
plug in this arena, the RBC Center.

1949
01:36:27,682 --> 01:36:30,117
Chavo Guerrero just hit
those hockey boards

1950
01:36:30,250 --> 01:36:31,652
like he was chopped into them.

1951
01:36:31,919 --> 01:36:35,889
And Chavo, again in control.
Rey must wonder, what's Chavo gonna do?

1952
01:36:36,424 --> 01:36:41,195
Oh, God, face first goes Rey
off those hockey boards.

1953
01:36:41,496 --> 01:36:44,365
[JBL] The difference is
nobody cares about hockey.

1954
01:36:44,465 --> 01:36:48,402
Fans all over the world have been talking
about what's gonna happen

1955
01:36:48,469 --> 01:36:51,239
when Mysterio and Guerrero
finally hook up.

1956
01:36:51,438 --> 01:36:53,974
[crowd chatter]

1957
01:36:54,375 --> 01:36:57,712
[Michael] Chavo Guerrero been looking
to punish Mysterio for weeks.

1958
01:36:57,779 --> 01:37:01,382
[crowd chatter]

1959
01:37:01,683 --> 01:37:05,186
[JBL]
The key to a Falls Count Anywhere match

1960
01:37:05,253 --> 01:37:08,423
is you got to wrestle
like you're in somebody else's body.

1961
01:37:08,489 --> 01:37:11,025
[Michael] Reversal, Chavo into the steel.

1962
01:37:11,392 --> 01:37:15,784
Did you see Chavo's face
as his ribs and lower back hit that steel?

1963
01:37:15,884 --> 01:37:17,298
[JBL] When you get in a match like this,

1964
01:37:17,365 --> 01:37:19,867
you got to accept the fact
that you're gonna get hurt,

1965
01:37:20,101 --> 01:37:24,806
but you've got to be willing to get hurt
to dish out more than your opponent.

1966
01:37:25,572 --> 01:37:28,276
[Michael] And Rey launched over the top,
right back on his feet.

1967
01:37:31,411 --> 01:37:33,447
Chavo may have injured that left knee.

1968
01:37:34,048 --> 01:37:36,884
[crowd chatter]

1969
01:37:36,951 --> 01:37:38,085
[Michael] One way to do it.

1970
01:37:38,952 --> 01:37:40,722
Oh, my. Rey off the boards.

1971
01:37:40,855 --> 01:37:42,956
Rey dropped across the back of the head.

1972
01:37:46,361 --> 01:37:50,865
Rey close to a cover, shoulders down,
Falls Count Anywhere, a kickout at one.

1973
01:37:51,499 --> 01:37:54,701
And to get back to your point,
I think both of these superstars, JBL,

1974
01:37:54,768 --> 01:37:57,304
really, to put their bodies on the line,

1975
01:37:57,438 --> 01:38:01,142
to finally end this rivalry
once and for all.

1976
01:38:01,308 --> 01:38:04,178
[JBL] Look at the legs of Rey
trying for the concrete floor

1977
01:38:04,277 --> 01:38:06,347
and he barely braces Chavo.

1978
01:38:06,481 --> 01:38:08,282
[Michael] Wow. Headscissors again.

1979
01:38:08,516 --> 01:38:11,018
[JBL] Mysterio throwing his body around
like it is somebody else's.

1980
01:38:11,085 --> 01:38:12,120
Look at this.

1981
01:38:12,186 --> 01:38:14,188
[crowd chatter]

1982
01:38:14,255 --> 01:38:15,956
[JBL] He hits Chavo.

1983
01:38:16,124 --> 01:38:20,128
More importantly,
he falls seven feet on a concrete floor.

1984
01:38:21,629 --> 01:38:23,464
That's how you win these matches.

1985
01:38:23,965 --> 01:38:27,134
That's how you make a name for yourself,
and that quite frankly

1986
01:38:27,201 --> 01:38:29,804
is the Rey Mysterio I knew
that was a world champion.

1987
01:38:30,071 --> 01:38:34,608
It's about damn time this guy woke up
and finally realize his potential.

1988
01:38:34,675 --> 01:38:36,411
[Michael] Uh-oh, Rey Mysterio
is going for that--

1989
01:38:36,477 --> 01:38:38,746
Oh, God. And look at that,
like a baseball bat.

1990
01:38:38,813 --> 01:38:40,947
Mysterio swung into the boards.

1991
01:38:41,249 --> 01:38:44,184
Rey, may be-- He's had--
He's had the wind knocked out of him,

1992
01:38:44,285 --> 01:38:45,452
could have a concussion.

1993
01:38:45,519 --> 01:38:49,056
Here's the cover, hook to the leg,
there's two, Mysterio kicks out.

1994
01:38:49,123 --> 01:38:52,559
[JBL] We may need a spatula
to get one of these guys off this floor.

1995
01:38:52,626 --> 01:38:53,661
[crowd chatter]

1996
01:38:53,728 --> 01:38:55,329
[Michael] Look at this.
Look at the intensity

1997
01:38:55,429 --> 01:38:57,398
in the face of Chavo Guerrero,

1998
01:38:57,465 --> 01:39:02,670
the absolute hatred in Guerrero's eyes
as he swings Guerrero like a bat again,

1999
01:39:02,870 --> 01:39:07,842
bouncing his skull off chairs,
off of the board and the barricade.

2000
01:39:08,276 --> 01:39:12,079
Has this man, Chavo Guerrero,
got any decency left in him?

2001
01:39:12,146 --> 01:39:13,281
[JBL] It's a fight, Michael.

2002
01:39:13,347 --> 01:39:14,581
-It's a fight.
-[Michael] But why? But why?

2003
01:39:14,648 --> 01:39:16,150
[JBL] There's no such thing
as a fair fight.

2004
01:39:16,250 --> 01:39:18,318
-[Michael] What?
-[JBL] It's like a celibate priest.

2005
01:39:18,385 --> 01:39:19,954
You don't have such a thing.

2006
01:39:20,321 --> 01:39:23,858
[Michael] Here is the brutality
of Chavo Guerrero,

2007
01:39:25,058 --> 01:39:27,628
chairs, barricade.

2008
01:39:29,163 --> 01:39:32,300
[JBL] And how proud I am of Teddy Long
for making this match.

2009
01:39:32,500 --> 01:39:34,235
This is what it's all about.

2010
01:39:34,535 --> 01:39:35,670
This is about putting your pride--

2011
01:39:35,769 --> 01:39:37,905
-[Michael] This is what it's all about.
-[JBL] You're damn right it is.

2012
01:39:38,005 --> 01:39:39,072
This is a fight.

2013
01:39:39,139 --> 01:39:42,543
This is what SmackDown fans love
and it's damn sure what I love.

2014
01:39:42,610 --> 01:39:43,678
[Michael] Of course it's a fight,

2015
01:39:43,744 --> 01:39:46,179
but these are two men
who were close as brothers, JBL.

2016
01:39:46,280 --> 01:39:47,281
[JBL] Who cares?

2017
01:39:47,348 --> 01:39:50,151
[Michael] And now they're going up the--
up the stairs-- up the stairs.

2018
01:39:51,352 --> 01:39:52,487
[JBL] It's all legal.

2019
01:39:52,719 --> 01:39:55,523
You could go to the parking lot,
the men's room, the ladies' room.

2020
01:39:55,623 --> 01:39:56,624
It's all legal.

2021
01:39:56,691 --> 01:39:58,593
They're gonna beat
the hell out of each other.

2022
01:39:58,692 --> 01:40:00,361
[Michael] Yeah. But the higher
they climb up those stairs,

2023
01:40:00,428 --> 01:40:02,463
the more dangerous,
or even more dangerous,

2024
01:40:02,630 --> 01:40:04,565
this Falls Count Anywhere match becomes.

2025
01:40:04,632 --> 01:40:06,366
[crowd chatter]

2026
01:40:06,701 --> 01:40:08,803
[JBL] You have to be willing
to do this, Michael,

2027
01:40:08,870 --> 01:40:10,605
in a Falls Count Anywhere match to win.

2028
01:40:10,737 --> 01:40:13,907
And both of these guys are willing to put
both of their bodies at risk.

2029
01:40:13,974 --> 01:40:15,942
[Michael] Uh-oh. Wait a minute.
Rey battling back,

2030
01:40:16,076 --> 01:40:20,414
Chavo teetering. Injured the elbow.

2031
01:40:20,481 --> 01:40:25,786
[JBL] And nothing around them gives.
Everything they touch hurts.

2032
01:40:26,187 --> 01:40:29,023
[Michael] Chavo literally
rolling down the stairs

2033
01:40:29,090 --> 01:40:32,293
to try to get away
from getting fenced to Mysterio.

2034
01:40:32,360 --> 01:40:33,928
[crowd chatter]

2035
01:40:33,995 --> 01:40:36,563
-[JBL] Ow.
-[Michael] Mysterio is sick of the weeks

2036
01:40:36,630 --> 01:40:39,200
of jealousy, the weeks of greed,

2037
01:40:39,433 --> 01:40:42,068
the weeks of stuff
that has been thrown in his face

2038
01:40:42,135 --> 01:40:43,737
at the hands of Chavo and Vickie.

2039
01:40:43,804 --> 01:40:45,106
[crowd chatter]

2040
01:40:45,172 --> 01:40:49,544
[Michael] Mysterio seated senton,
taking Chavo out.

2041
01:40:49,710 --> 01:40:51,144
[crowd cheering]

2042
01:40:51,212 --> 01:40:53,179
[Michael] I believe our cameraman
was trying as well.

2043
01:40:53,347 --> 01:40:56,384
That's how dangerous
these types of matches are.

2044
01:40:56,483 --> 01:40:57,585
[crowd chatter]

2045
01:40:58,853 --> 01:41:01,322
[JBL] Maybe Rey realizes
that without Vickie Guerrero,

2046
01:41:01,389 --> 01:41:03,291
he can't be a world champion again.

2047
01:41:03,357 --> 01:41:05,159
[crowd chatter]

2048
01:41:05,226 --> 01:41:07,894
[Michael] This is right
in the waiting room, ladies and gentlemen.

2049
01:41:07,962 --> 01:41:09,397
[crowd cheering]

2050
01:41:09,463 --> 01:41:11,799
[Michael] And that was an idiotic
statement you just made.

2051
01:41:11,965 --> 01:41:14,000
Vickie Guerrero had nothing
to do with Rey Mysterio

2052
01:41:14,101 --> 01:41:16,771
becoming champion the first time.
What the hell are you talking about?

2053
01:41:16,837 --> 01:41:19,307
[JBL] Common denominator,
she was there in the background

2054
01:41:19,373 --> 01:41:21,208
for Eddie Guerrero
and he became world champion.

2055
01:41:21,308 --> 01:41:22,710
-She was there in the background--
-[Michael] Oh!

2056
01:41:22,777 --> 01:41:24,879
-[JBL] Oh, my God.
-[Michael] What a clothesline.

2057
01:41:24,946 --> 01:41:27,181
Rey was literally bent in half.

2058
01:41:27,248 --> 01:41:29,549
[JBL] She was there in the background
when Rey became--

2059
01:41:29,616 --> 01:41:31,018
Common denominator.

2060
01:41:31,085 --> 01:41:33,420
[Michael] Is this a clothesline
or a right hand?

2061
01:41:33,487 --> 01:41:35,156
[crowd chatter]

2062
01:41:35,222 --> 01:41:38,326
[Michael] It was a--
It was a combination of both, actually.

2063
01:41:39,727 --> 01:41:42,129
And Chavo with the upper hand.

2064
01:41:42,597 --> 01:41:45,566
I cannot-- And there is the scene,
ladies and gentlemen,

2065
01:41:45,700 --> 01:41:48,768
the RBC Center,
somewhere in that mass of humanity,

2066
01:41:48,869 --> 01:41:51,072
Mysterio and Chavo beating
the hell out of each other.

2067
01:41:51,138 --> 01:41:52,907
[JBL] And look at the fans' faces.

2068
01:41:52,974 --> 01:41:55,643
Just great SmackDown fans
sitting right there next to them,

2069
01:41:55,742 --> 01:41:58,346
they're going to be in shock
at the brutality of what's going on.

2070
01:41:58,411 --> 01:42:01,315
[Michael] And most of them
looking at the face of Chavo Guerrero.

2071
01:42:01,382 --> 01:42:05,686
With every blow, there's almost
the hatred that is being painted

2072
01:42:05,753 --> 01:42:09,657
on the face of Chavo as he delivers
blow after blow to Rey.

2073
01:42:09,991 --> 01:42:11,058
[JBL] There is hatred.

2074
01:42:11,192 --> 01:42:13,960
He believes that Rey Mysterio
has been living off

2075
01:42:14,027 --> 01:42:15,563
the Guerrero family name.

2076
01:42:15,963 --> 01:42:17,932
-[Michael] He does not.
-[JBL] Yes, he does.

2077
01:42:17,999 --> 01:42:19,266
[Michael] Chavo Guerrero said--

2078
01:42:19,333 --> 01:42:20,534
[JBL] What the hell are you,
Sigmund Freud?

2079
01:42:20,601 --> 01:42:22,670
[Michael] He says it,
that's what he says, JBL.

2080
01:42:22,769 --> 01:42:24,205
It's jealousy and greed.

2081
01:42:24,304 --> 01:42:26,040
-That's all it's about.
-[JBL] You're calling him a liar now?

2082
01:42:26,107 --> 01:42:27,308
You're full of crap.

2083
01:42:27,375 --> 01:42:28,608
[Michael] It's about jealousy and greed

2084
01:42:28,709 --> 01:42:30,244
-that's all this is about.
-[JBL] What you know about.

2085
01:42:30,311 --> 01:42:32,023
What you know about life,
you can put in a thimble.

2086
01:42:32,148 --> 01:42:33,923
[Michael] But Chavo Guerrero
couldn't beat him at vengeance

2087
01:42:33,998 --> 01:42:36,217
for the Intercontinental Title,
so he has to retire.

2088
01:42:36,282 --> 01:42:39,452
And then he's jealous
because Rey wins the world championship,

2089
01:42:39,587 --> 01:42:41,155
that's what this is all about.

2090
01:42:41,222 --> 01:42:42,389
[JBL] It is not.

2091
01:42:42,456 --> 01:42:45,226
It's about the fact
that he hates Rey Mysterio.

2092
01:42:45,291 --> 01:42:48,829
[Michael] It's about the fact that Chavo
is hiding behind the damn specter

2093
01:42:48,896 --> 01:42:53,800
of his uncle, Eddie. As Rey
is whipped brutally into the steel.

2094
01:42:53,867 --> 01:42:55,369
[crowd chatter]

2095
01:42:55,436 --> 01:42:58,539
[JBL] He don't look exactly like a man
who's hiding behind anybody right now.

2096
01:42:58,606 --> 01:43:00,007
-[Michael] Well, not now.
-[JBL] Looks to me like

2097
01:43:00,074 --> 01:43:01,875
he's whipping somebody's butt.

2098
01:43:01,942 --> 01:43:03,744
[crowd chatter]

2099
01:43:03,811 --> 01:43:07,081
[Michael] Chavo just-- Uh-oh.
There's Rey Mysterio.

2100
01:43:07,148 --> 01:43:10,384
That is the heart and resilience
that made this man a champion.

2101
01:43:13,219 --> 01:43:15,523
-Oh, 619.
-[JBL] 619. 619.

2102
01:43:15,589 --> 01:43:17,825
[Michael] Rey Mysterio pulled out a 619.

2103
01:43:17,892 --> 01:43:20,294
[crowd chatter]

2104
01:43:20,995 --> 01:43:26,366
[Michael] Chavo Guerrero.
Oh, just whipped into the steel barricade.

2105
01:43:26,433 --> 01:43:28,402
Did you hear the impact?

2106
01:43:28,635 --> 01:43:31,405
-There was no give, ladies and gentlemen.
-[JBL] None.

2107
01:43:31,706 --> 01:43:34,842
There is no give for anything, but--
What is he doing?

2108
01:43:35,276 --> 01:43:37,344
What is this lunatic doing?

2109
01:43:37,411 --> 01:43:38,646
[Michael] Come on, Rey Mysterio.

2110
01:43:38,713 --> 01:43:39,914
[JBL] You got to be kidding me.

2111
01:43:39,980 --> 01:43:42,849
[Michael] Rey, you can't do this.
Rey it is not worth this.

2112
01:43:42,916 --> 01:43:44,719
-[JBL] No.
-[Michael] Rey this is not worth it.

2113
01:43:45,085 --> 01:43:48,188
-[JBL] No.
-[Michael] Rey Mysterio, crossbody.

2114
01:43:48,422 --> 01:43:51,291
Here is the cover, hook to the leg.

2115
01:43:51,357 --> 01:43:52,660
[crowd chatter]

2116
01:43:53,160 --> 01:43:55,596
[Michael] Are the shoulders down?
I believe they are.

2117
01:43:55,663 --> 01:43:57,465
-They are. Mysterio wins…
-[bell ringing]

2118
01:43:57,531 --> 01:43:59,633
…Falls Count Anywhere.

2119
01:43:59,700 --> 01:44:01,201
["Booyaka 619" playing]

2120
01:44:01,936 --> 01:44:05,940
[announcer] Here is your winner,
Rey Mysterio.

2121
01:44:06,005 --> 01:44:07,741
[Michael] Now, that is what heart
is all about.

2122
01:44:07,808 --> 01:44:10,510
That's what being a winner
is all about, JBL.

2123
01:44:10,577 --> 01:44:13,013
That's what happens
when you piss off somebody

2124
01:44:13,280 --> 01:44:14,648
with a bunch of damn lies.

2125
01:44:14,949 --> 01:44:18,352
[JBL] What the hell are you doing, "lies"?
Now you're judge and jury?

2126
01:44:18,753 --> 01:44:20,621
What about heart
with Chavo Guerrero?

2127
01:44:20,688 --> 01:44:21,688
[Michael] Now look at Rey.

2128
01:44:21,755 --> 01:44:25,291
Well, everything that Chavo has done
to Rey in recent weeks isn't enough.

[Michael] Victory was not good enough.
And there's Vickie.

-That's Vickie.
-[JBL] Vickie, goodnight, Vickie.

[JBL] This is how he thanks Chavo?

2138
01:44:53,053 --> 01:44:54,088
[Michael] Thanks him?

2139
01:44:54,688 --> 01:44:57,958
Chavo better thank Vickie Guerrero,
Rey would've beat the living hell

2140

out of him here again tonight.

2141

[Michael] Watch this.

2143
01:45:03,230 --> 01:45:05,866
First, the 619 by Rey Mysterio.

[Michael] And now the crossbody,
watch Chavo's head.

2147
01:45:12,873 --> 01:45:15,308
Right through the penalty box board.

2148

[JBL] Michael, I got to hand it
to Rey Mysterio.

2151
01:45:23,450 --> 01:45:25,419
I mean, I have not been on his side.

2152
01:45:25,619 --> 01:45:27,888
He earned this victory.

2153
01:45:28,589 --> 01:45:30,857
-Damn you!
-[JBL] What a performance

2154
01:45:31,291 --> 01:45:32,826
by the guy from San Diego.

2155
01:45:32,927 --> 01:45:34,195
[Michael] And listen to Vickie.

2156
01:45:34,628 --> 01:45:38,032
Vickie Guerrero is incensed.

2157
01:45:39,032 --> 01:45:40,201
Wow.

2158
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:42,001
Wow.

2159
01:45:42,536 --> 01:45:47,141
It's absolutely amazing to me
how the simple human emotion of anger

2160
01:45:47,441 --> 01:45:49,943
can lead to what we just saw moments ago.

2161
01:45:50,076 --> 01:45:54,348
An absolutely vicious,
brutal affair between two men

2162
01:45:54,481 --> 01:45:56,416
who used to be as close as brothers.

2163
01:45:56,517 --> 01:45:59,186
It's beyond anger.
I've never been a fan of Rey Mysterio's.

2164
01:45:59,253 --> 01:46:02,656
I've made that public,
but what a performance that Rey Mysterio,

2165
01:46:02,723 --> 01:46:06,527
what heart and determination
Rey Mysterio put on to win that match.

2166
01:46:06,626 --> 01:46:08,661
Yeah. Unbelievable.
I just can't get over the fact

2167
01:46:08,728 --> 01:46:10,764
that everything
they went through together

2168
01:46:10,831 --> 01:46:13,968
over the past--
their whole life ended up like that.

weighing in at 245 pounds,
Sir William Regal.

[Michael] Well,
some night Mr. Regal has had

2175
01:46:33,454 --> 01:46:35,054
as he gets set
for action here tonight.

[chuckling] Oh, my goodness.

2179
01:46:59,380 --> 01:47:01,415
[Michael] Well, first off,
he saw Vito in the shower

2180
01:47:01,482 --> 01:47:02,950
and then he ran down the hall naked.

2181
01:47:04,951 --> 01:47:06,687
[JBL] It wasn't pretty either.

2182
01:47:06,954 --> 01:47:08,455
[Michael] Regal set out to find Finlay

to help King Booker out tonight,

"The Rabid Wolverine," Chris Benoit.

2192

[Michael] He's back. Chris Benoit is back.

2193
01:47:37,851 --> 01:47:40,688
Ladies and gentlemen,
last May you'll recall,

2194
01:47:41,021 --> 01:47:44,357
Chris Benoit took an extended sabbatical.

2195
01:47:45,159 --> 01:47:49,396
Said that it was time to heal some wounds,
it was time to get his head straight,

2196
01:47:49,463 --> 01:47:51,799
it was time to come off the road and rest.

2197
01:47:51,965 --> 01:47:54,468
And Chris Benoit is now back.

2198
01:47:54,601 --> 01:47:58,205
He's in a ring
for the first time in five months.

2199
01:47:58,514 --> 01:48:00,449
[JBL] And physically,
I've never seen him better.

2200
01:48:00,553 --> 01:48:02,076
I don't know if he has any rust on him,

2201
01:48:02,142 --> 01:48:04,945
but listen to the ovation
here in North Carolina

2202
01:48:05,012 --> 01:48:06,847

So, it's Benoit and William Regal.

2206
01:48:12,286 --> 01:48:15,556
And let's talk about how physical
this matchup's going to be.

2207
01:48:15,621 --> 01:48:17,157
These two men know each other well

2208
01:48:17,357 --> 01:48:19,526
and they are two
of the most physical competitors

2209
01:48:19,625 --> 01:48:21,061
in sports entertainment today.

2210
01:48:21,795 --> 01:48:24,732
[JBL] I've wrestled Benoit,
no telling how many times,

2211
01:48:24,898 --> 01:48:26,834
let me tell you something,
whether it's pay-per-view

2212
01:48:26,900 --> 01:48:30,337
or Poughkeepsie, New York,
this guy does not take a day off.

2213
01:48:30,404 --> 01:48:33,307
[Michael] Chris Benoit is hungry,
he is well-rested.

2214
01:48:33,440 --> 01:48:35,209
William Regal is ticked off,

2215
01:48:35,275 --> 01:48:37,544
he's been embarrassed
and humiliated tonight.

2216
01:48:37,611 --> 01:48:40,714
Both of these men looking
to prove something at No Mercy.

2217
01:48:40,781 --> 01:48:43,384
[JBL] Both of these guys
as tough as it gets.

2218
01:48:43,483 --> 01:48:44,852
[Michael] How wise is William Regal?

2219
01:48:44,951 --> 01:48:46,286
Going right for the left arm,

2220
01:48:46,353 --> 01:48:47,821
if you take the automatic commission--

2221
01:48:47,888 --> 01:48:49,923
[JBL] Block the chop. Block the chop.

2222
01:48:50,391 --> 01:48:53,160
[Michael] Not only that, but if you take
the automatic commission of Benoit,

2223
01:48:53,227 --> 01:48:54,862
you take away the cross face.

2224
01:48:54,928 --> 01:48:57,130
You take that out of the game for Benoit.

2225
01:48:57,965 --> 01:48:59,700
[JBL] How many guys in wrestling

2226
01:48:59,967 --> 01:49:02,870
have had enough sense to put up
their hands to block a chop?

2227
01:49:03,603 --> 01:49:05,639
[Michael] William Regal's been around
the block a time or two.

2228
01:49:05,706 --> 01:49:06,773
[JBL] A time or two.

2229
01:49:06,840 --> 01:49:09,509
[Michael] He began wrestling
in the carnivals

2230
01:49:09,610 --> 01:49:12,579
in Blackpool, England at the age of 14.

2231
01:49:13,813 --> 01:49:16,950
As Chris Benoit uses those knees
to try to break the hold of Regal,

2232
01:49:17,017 --> 01:49:18,684
but Regal so relentless.

2233
01:49:19,452 --> 01:49:21,822
That front facelock
on The Rabid Wolverine.

2234
01:49:23,223 --> 01:49:27,561
So, how do you combat a man
who's basically rested up for five months

2235
01:49:27,693 --> 01:49:29,929
and who was is now back
ready to make a name for himself again,

2236
01:49:29,996 --> 01:49:31,865
a former world champion like Benoit.

2237
01:49:32,032 --> 01:49:33,200
[JBL] You find out if he's rusty,

2238
01:49:33,433 --> 01:49:35,369
you stretch him,
you go the limit with him,

2239
01:49:35,436 --> 01:49:37,004
you see what all he can do.

2240
01:49:37,304 --> 01:49:42,009
You take him as far as you can
and then you see how rusty he is.

2241
01:49:42,076 --> 01:49:43,110
[Michael] Now, what if you're Benoit

2242
01:49:43,177 --> 01:49:45,344
and you're going into a matchup
with a man like Regal,

2243
01:49:45,545 --> 01:49:48,415
who has been nothing
but embarrassed and humiliated

2244
01:49:48,549 --> 01:49:50,817
in front of the world here tonight.

2245
01:49:50,918 --> 01:49:53,152
[JBL] Benoit has no real flaws.

2246
01:49:53,286 --> 01:49:57,023
The intensity is one of the things
Benoit has that is his greatest asset.

2247
01:49:57,391 --> 01:49:59,526
When you are in a position like this,

2248
01:49:59,625 --> 01:50:01,995
when you don't know
if you have your "A" game or not,

2249
01:50:02,062 --> 01:50:03,931
err on the side of aggression,

2250
01:50:04,063 --> 01:50:06,299
I am sure
that's what Benoit will do today.

2251
01:50:06,433 --> 01:50:09,570
[Michael] Chris Benoit
looks great as usual.

2252
01:50:10,137 --> 01:50:11,505
Regal picks the leg.

2253
01:50:12,339 --> 01:50:16,076
Into the cover, shoulders down,
and another unique cover by William Regal.

2254
01:50:16,175 --> 01:50:18,812
[JBL] You're going to see some unique
things here tonight from these two.

2255
01:50:19,213 --> 01:50:21,315
[Michael] Kickout at two by Chris Benoit.

2256
01:50:21,514 --> 01:50:23,416
I don't think there is a man
in sports entertainment--

2257
01:50:23,483 --> 01:50:25,219
again the shoulders down, again a kickout.

2258
01:50:25,285 --> 01:50:28,355
This is almost a test of strength
with Benoit kicking out.

2259
01:50:28,722 --> 01:50:30,389
I don't believe
there's a man in sports entertainment

2260
01:50:30,590 --> 01:50:34,460
who has so many different
pinning combinations he can use

2261
01:50:34,561 --> 01:50:35,762
like William Regal.

2262
01:50:36,830 --> 01:50:38,764
[JBL] And submission combinations.

2263
01:50:38,932 --> 01:50:41,869
[Michael] Look at Benoit,
the strength of Benoit,

2264
01:50:42,001 --> 01:50:45,205
but Regal with the wherewithal
to keep his shoulders off the mat

2265
01:50:45,272 --> 01:50:46,740
and alleviate some of the pressure.

2266
01:50:46,840 --> 01:50:48,808
[JBL] When's the last time
you saw a bridge?

2267
01:50:49,710 --> 01:50:51,277
-Wow.
-[Michael] It doesn't happen often.

2268
01:50:51,378 --> 01:50:55,482
And look at Regal using his feet,
and his legs, and his knees.

2269
01:50:55,782 --> 01:50:56,983
Benoit keeping the pressure.

2270
01:50:57,049 --> 01:50:59,686
He just kicked up in a test of strength.

2271
01:51:00,387 --> 01:51:02,156
That's William Regal,
ladies and gentlemen.

2272
01:51:04,290 --> 01:51:06,692
-[Michael] What a display of athleticism.
-[JBL] Wow.

2273
01:51:07,126 --> 01:51:11,197
[Michael] The leg scissors by Benoit
trying to take the breath away from Regal.

2274
01:51:11,665 --> 01:51:14,735
[JBL] Amazing. It is a human
chess match right now.

2275
01:51:16,503 --> 01:51:18,639
[Michael]
Two of the best technical wrestlers

2276
01:51:18,705 --> 01:51:21,674
in sports entertainment,
perhaps in its history.

2277
01:51:22,108 --> 01:51:25,612
Benoit, wisely keeping his shoulders off
the mat as the referee began the count.

2278
01:51:25,679 --> 01:51:27,947
[JBL] It's like watching
the spar-off in a fist fight.

2279
01:51:28,014 --> 01:51:31,351
These guys are doing nothing
but trying to outthink the other one.

2280
01:51:32,753 --> 01:51:35,389
[Michael] Regal trying what he can
to get out of the leg scissors

2281
01:51:35,455 --> 01:51:37,156
but Benoit has got him cinched in.

2282
01:51:38,058 --> 01:51:40,326
How do you get out of this?
Well, just like that, I guess.

2283
01:51:42,362 --> 01:51:43,864
[JBL] You try to get to the side.

2284
01:51:44,164 --> 01:51:45,999
You can't go at him,
you try to get to the side,

2285
01:51:46,066 --> 01:51:47,166
just like he's doing.

2286
01:51:47,901 --> 01:51:50,504
-[Michael] Regal is so nasty.
-[JBL] See what he did?

2287
01:51:50,571 --> 01:51:53,240
Stepped on his arm to hold it down
and then grabbed his arm.

2288
01:51:53,307 --> 01:51:55,474
-[Michael] Boots to the face.
-[JBL] This right here…

2289
01:51:55,541 --> 01:51:58,144
-[Michael] Knees to the skull.
-…is textbook wrestling.

2290
01:51:58,978 --> 01:52:01,447
[Michael] That'll wake you up. Oh!

2291
01:52:03,683 --> 01:52:06,887
And Regal with a left hand.
Lefts and chops.

2292
01:52:07,019 --> 01:52:09,723
Benoit and Regal exchanging blows.

2293
01:52:12,593 --> 01:52:14,327
And there's a German suplex.

2294
01:52:14,628 --> 01:52:17,197
Arms are clasped around the waist.

2295
01:52:18,531 --> 01:52:21,567
Benoit was trying to go for three,
Regal blocked it.

2296
01:52:21,634 --> 01:52:23,237
These men know each other so well.

2297
01:52:24,204 --> 01:52:25,304
-[JBL] Oh, my God.
-[Michael] Did you--

2298
01:52:25,371 --> 01:52:26,607
did you hear the headbutt?

2299
01:52:26,807 --> 01:52:28,107
[JBL] That is sickening.

2300
01:52:28,342 --> 01:52:30,509
[crowd chatter]

2301
01:52:32,946 --> 01:52:35,581
[Michael] And there's a German suplex,
this time released by Benoit.

2302
01:52:36,482 --> 01:52:38,552
-[crowd cheering]
-[JBL] That's impressive.

2303
01:52:39,885 --> 01:52:42,889
[Michael] Regal, I believe
may be busted up from that headbutt

2304
01:52:43,123 --> 01:52:46,326
as Chris Benoit heads to the top rope.

2305
01:52:47,527 --> 01:52:50,697
Benoit busted open as well,
and there's another headbutt

2306
01:52:50,764 --> 01:52:52,933
directly to the open wound on Regal.

2307
01:52:53,634 --> 01:52:55,936
Blood trickling from the head of Regal.

2308
01:52:56,003 --> 01:52:59,606
Cover, hooks the leg, there's two,
kickout at two.

2309
01:52:59,873 --> 01:53:02,608
Watch the brutal headbutt from Benoit.
Listen to this.

2310
01:53:03,009 --> 01:53:04,177
[William grunts]

2311
01:53:08,215 --> 01:53:10,250
[JBL] These guys are in their element.

2312
01:53:11,018 --> 01:53:12,486
Look at him, a little woozy.

2313
01:53:13,420 --> 01:53:16,523
Get a blood flowing, these guys love this.

2314
01:53:16,590 --> 01:53:18,224
[Michael] Okay.
You thought Regal was woozy?

2315
01:53:18,325 --> 01:53:20,527
-Oh, my, what's Regal going to do here?
-[JBL] Uh-oh. Uh-oh.

2316
01:53:20,794 --> 01:53:23,429
[Michael] This-- And Benoit blocks.
Thank goodness.

2317
01:53:23,563 --> 01:53:25,565
Regal has bad intentions in mind.

2318
01:53:26,566 --> 01:53:28,101
And there's a knee to the gut.

2319
01:53:28,302 --> 01:53:29,870
Regal in trouble on the apron.

2320
01:53:31,371 --> 01:53:34,340
"The Rabid Wolverine,"
Chris Benoit in his return--

2321
01:53:34,407 --> 01:53:35,509
[JBL] No, no.

2322
01:53:35,575 --> 01:53:38,545
[Michael] Oh, my. Going to go
for a German off the apron.

2323
01:53:39,112 --> 01:53:40,580
[JBL] They're coming our way, Michael.

2324
01:53:40,746 --> 01:53:42,516
[Michael] Regal trying
to block it and he does.

2325
01:53:43,183 --> 01:53:45,818
Thank goodness. Both of those men
would've been broken in half.

2326
01:53:46,620 --> 01:53:49,822
And Benoit bounced head
first of the apron.

2327
01:53:49,889 --> 01:53:52,659
[crowd chatter]

2328
01:53:53,393 --> 01:53:54,995
[Michael] Regal back into the ring.

2329
01:53:56,463 --> 01:53:58,432
Benoit in trouble outside the ring.

2330
01:53:58,498 --> 01:54:00,299
The referee begins the count.

2331
01:54:00,366 --> 01:54:03,969
Now, you have to wonder
about that rust that you said earlier,

2332
01:54:04,137 --> 01:54:06,106
the wind of Benoit, is it there?

2333
01:54:06,273 --> 01:54:09,910
As you look at Regal's head bleeding,
as we take another look.

2334
01:54:10,043 --> 01:54:11,111
Watch this.

2335
01:54:13,413 --> 01:54:15,882
Regal relentless on the assault
inside the ring.

2336
01:54:15,949 --> 01:54:17,750
Benoit gets his foot on the bottom rope.

2337
01:54:17,817 --> 01:54:21,088
[JBL] A DDT on the apron. Wow.

2338
01:54:22,089 --> 01:54:23,423
And going for a German suplex.

2339
01:54:23,790 --> 01:54:27,294
Chris Benoit once German suplexed me
off the top rope in a cage,

2340
01:54:27,427 --> 01:54:29,963
I was so messed up, I left my rental car

2341
01:54:30,030 --> 01:54:33,299
at the Green Bay Arena
and flew home without it.

2342
01:54:33,433 --> 01:54:34,800
[crowd chanting]

2343
01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:38,004
[Michael] Regal with knees to the jaw.

2344
01:54:38,138 --> 01:54:39,673
Oh, and left hand.

2345
01:54:39,773 --> 01:54:42,275
[JBL] This match right here
is a thing of beauty.

2346
01:54:42,342 --> 01:54:46,012
Absolute artistic masterpiece.

2347
01:54:46,146 --> 01:54:47,280
[Michael] Knee, and look this.

2348
01:54:47,748 --> 01:54:51,550
[referee] One, two, three, four. Come on.

2349
01:54:51,617 --> 01:54:55,054
[Michael] The face of Regal,
the face of Benoit, it tells the story.

2350
01:54:55,121 --> 01:54:56,490
[JBL] And you know what, Michael,

2351
01:54:56,690 --> 01:55:00,026
you got a bunch of new SmackDown stars
sitting back in the dressing room

2352
01:55:00,093 --> 01:55:02,728
thinking, "Oh, my God,
I might have to get in the ring

2353
01:55:02,795 --> 01:55:04,197
with one of these guys one day."

2354
01:55:04,264 --> 01:55:07,534
[Michael] Oh, look at this, Chris Benoit
trying to go for the Sharpshooter.

2355
01:55:07,601 --> 01:55:08,701
Regal powers up.

2356
01:55:08,768 --> 01:55:11,071
Yeah. Hello MVP, I hope you're watching.

2357
01:55:11,271 --> 01:55:14,441
[JBL] This is what we need to put MVP
in a Triple Threat match with these two

2358
01:55:14,540 --> 01:55:17,110
and let him learn a little bit
of something about this business.

2359
01:55:17,177 --> 01:55:21,047
[Michael] Here's Regal, cover,
hooks the leg, Benoit kicks out at two.

2360
01:55:21,114 --> 01:55:25,218
Again a cover, hooks the leg again.
And you notice how Regal drives his arm

2361
01:55:25,451 --> 01:55:28,487
into the arm in-- The jaw,
and a kickout at two again.

2362
01:55:29,723 --> 01:55:33,460
At what point do you believe
the wind may become a factor for Benoit

2363
01:55:33,527 --> 01:55:35,161
who's been out in the backseat
for five months?

2364
01:55:35,228 --> 01:55:38,130
[JBL] Benoit's one of the most
conditioned guys in the world.

2365
01:55:38,197 --> 01:55:41,567
However, you can't replicate
what we do on a stair master,

2366
01:55:41,634 --> 01:55:44,004
you can't replicate
what we do on a treadmill,

2367
01:55:44,070 --> 01:55:45,705
recumbent bike, elliptical.

2368
01:55:46,139 --> 01:55:49,375
At some point, you have to wrestle
to get into wrestling shape.

2369
01:55:49,442 --> 01:55:52,612
The longer this goes, the more
in favor it goes with the Englishman.

2370
01:55:52,679 --> 01:55:54,614
[crowd cheering]

2371
01:55:54,681 --> 01:55:59,786
[Michael] Absolute emotion,
the intensity in the face of Regal.

2372
01:56:00,219 --> 01:56:02,956
Blood streaming into his eyes

2373
01:56:03,656 --> 01:56:07,227
and he continues
the abdominal stretch on Benoit.

2374
01:56:08,795 --> 01:56:12,264
The Wolverine desperately tries
to get out and he does,

2375
01:56:12,699 --> 01:56:15,201
driving Regal kidney first to the corner.

2376
01:56:15,268 --> 01:56:18,103
[JBL] Both these guys broke in
when it wasn't about the chokes.

2377
01:56:18,170 --> 01:56:19,973
Oh, my goodness, right on the head.

2378
01:56:20,040 --> 01:56:23,143
[Michael] That chop was right
to the open wound, again.

2379
01:56:23,210 --> 01:56:25,378
[crowd chatter]

2380
01:56:29,115 --> 01:56:31,550
[Michael] Regal screaming in pain.

2381
01:56:33,719 --> 01:56:35,789
A high suplex by Regal. Great throw.

2382
01:56:36,755 --> 01:56:38,258
And another throw.

2383
01:56:39,793 --> 01:56:42,128
[JBL] I've never seen Regal better, ever.

2384
01:56:42,462 --> 01:56:44,831
[Michael] Neither have I.
Oh, and look at that.

2385
01:56:44,931 --> 01:56:48,468
The knee to the gut. Now to the cover
and a kickout again at two.

2386
01:56:48,535 --> 01:56:50,237
[JBL] It's like the old Brody knee drop.

2387
01:56:50,303 --> 01:56:51,871
I've never seen Regal better.

2388
01:56:52,405 --> 01:56:54,808
These guys broke in
when it wasn't about the chicks,

2389
01:56:54,875 --> 01:56:56,009
it wasn't about TV.

2390
01:56:56,076 --> 01:56:59,545
It was simply about winning
and having pride in what you do.

2391
01:56:59,880 --> 01:57:01,281
You see that right here.

2392
01:57:01,982 --> 01:57:04,617
This is a throwback
and it's a throwback that's good.

2393
01:57:05,018 --> 01:57:07,786
This is what is good about this business.

2394
01:57:08,121 --> 01:57:09,889
[Michael] Going for an STF perhaps.

2395
01:57:10,022 --> 01:57:12,092
Regal trying to get Benoit into position.

2396
01:57:12,925 --> 01:57:15,394
[JBL] The Crossface STF is what it is.

2397
01:57:15,495 --> 01:57:17,230
It's something that Regal made famous.

2398
01:57:17,297 --> 01:57:19,598
[Michael] But look at Benoit,
turning the tables.

2399
01:57:19,766 --> 01:57:21,433
-[grunts]
-[referee] Come on, Regal.

2400
01:57:22,501 --> 01:57:23,536
Chris, he's in the rope.

2401
01:57:23,637 --> 01:57:27,173
[Michael] The armbar by Benoit,
Regal got his foot on the ropes,

2402
01:57:27,240 --> 01:57:29,308
Benoit forced to break the hold.

2403
01:57:29,375 --> 01:57:31,545
[crowd chatter]

2404
01:57:33,947 --> 01:57:36,516
-[Michael] What a kick.
-[JBL] God.

2405
01:57:37,951 --> 01:57:39,920
[Michael] Here's the cover again by Regal.

2406
01:57:39,986 --> 01:57:42,621
This is a flat-out fight,
ladies and gentlemen.

2407
01:57:42,789 --> 01:57:44,790
[crowd chatter]

2408
01:57:45,058 --> 01:57:48,695
[JBL] And people here in North Carolina
are sitting in reverence.

2409
01:57:48,862 --> 01:57:51,531
Sitting in awe
of what they're watching go on.

2410
01:57:52,232 --> 01:57:56,937
They are seeing two guys
beat the living hell out of each other.

2411
01:57:57,571 --> 01:57:58,871
[Michael] That's what they are doing.

2412
01:57:58,972 --> 01:58:00,607
[crowd chatter]

2413
01:58:00,674 --> 01:58:03,108
[Michael] Chris Benoit. Listen to Benoit.

2414
01:58:04,344 --> 01:58:05,579
[referee] Come on, Chris, what do you say?

2415
01:58:08,348 --> 01:58:12,485
[Michael] Regal getting that arm
locked underneath the throat, the chin.

2416
01:58:12,552 --> 01:58:13,887
[JBL] Benoit's going to give up.

2417
01:58:14,387 --> 01:58:16,289
His first match back.

2418
01:58:17,022 --> 01:58:18,124
Okay.

2419
01:58:18,223 --> 01:58:21,695
[Michael] A human body is not made
to be placed in this position.

2420
01:58:21,760 --> 01:58:23,196
[JBL] A human body is not made to do

2421
01:58:23,263 --> 01:58:25,397
what these guys have done
for the last ten minutes.

2422
01:58:25,565 --> 01:58:27,366
[Michael]
Chris Benoit looks like a pretzel.

2423
01:58:28,969 --> 01:58:32,038
Seriously, it's Benoit
bleeding from the mouth,

2424
01:58:32,105 --> 01:58:34,674
-Regal bleeding from the skull.
-[JBL] Yes.

2425
01:58:34,974 --> 01:58:39,379
Benoit with the rights to Crossfaces,
breaking the hold.

2426
01:58:39,446 --> 01:58:41,481
[crowd chatter]

2427
01:58:43,282 --> 01:58:44,651
[JBL] And might I remind you,

2428
01:58:44,750 --> 01:58:46,920
Benoit's got that
surgically repaired neck.

2429
01:58:46,987 --> 01:58:50,790
That's not exactly good
on a neck that you've had operated on.

2430
01:58:50,857 --> 01:58:52,459
[Michael] And that's what Regal
was going for.

2431
01:58:52,892 --> 01:58:54,928
Full Nelson, Regal countered.

2432
01:58:54,995 --> 01:58:57,630
[crowd chatter]

2433
01:58:58,831 --> 01:59:00,099
[JBL] It's a chess match.

2434
01:59:01,534 --> 01:59:04,237
It is a physical, violent chess match.

2435
01:59:04,437 --> 01:59:05,605
[Michael] Wow.

2436
01:59:06,072 --> 01:59:07,874
[JBL] Full Nelson suplex.

2437
01:59:08,040 --> 01:59:09,541
Nowhere to land but your head.

2438
01:59:09,608 --> 01:59:12,411
[Michael] Going for the Crossface,
Benoit trying to lock the Crossface in.

2439
01:59:13,112 --> 01:59:15,848
Benoit's signature maneuver,
trying to lock the Crossface.

2440
01:59:15,915 --> 01:59:18,617
And look at Regal trying to hang on,
trying to hang on for dear life

2441
01:59:18,684 --> 01:59:20,085
to the left wrist of Benoit.

2442
01:59:20,152 --> 01:59:22,288
[JBL] The former world champion
Benoit has it,

2443
01:59:22,355 --> 01:59:24,057
-He has it.
-[Michael] Regal taps out--

2444
01:59:24,124 --> 01:59:25,791
-Regal has to tap out.
-[bell ringing]

2445
01:59:25,858 --> 01:59:28,061
[Michael] Benoit wins in his return.

2446
01:59:28,161 --> 01:59:30,463
["Whatever" playing]

2447
01:59:32,866 --> 01:59:39,205
[announcer] Here is your winner,
"The Rabid Wolverine," Chris Benoit.

2448
01:59:39,272 --> 01:59:40,973
[Michael] What a match.

2449
01:59:41,407 --> 01:59:44,177
What an absolutely physical matchup.

2450
01:59:44,277 --> 01:59:47,280
[JBL] That, Michael,
was a physical masterpiece.

2451
01:59:47,347 --> 01:59:48,514
That was art.

2452
01:59:48,580 --> 01:59:51,084
A throwback, old school.

2453
01:59:51,151 --> 01:59:53,186
That's how you do it.

2454
01:59:54,454 --> 01:59:57,824
Hats off to Benoit and William Regal.

2455
01:59:58,657 --> 02:00:00,559
Hats off to the world champion,

2456

he's in his element.

02:09:12,911 --> 02:09:15,681
the world championship due to injury.

2626
02:09:15,748 --> 02:09:18,017
He never lost the title, JBL.

2627
02:09:18,217 --> 02:09:20,219
Tonight, The Animal can win it back.

2628
02:09:20,286 --> 02:09:22,688
-[JBL] Technically, that's true.

[fireworks crackling]

2631
02:09:34,532 --> 02:09:36,568
[announcer] From Washington, D.C.,

2632
02:09:36,635 --> 02:09:39,972
weighing in at 290 pounds,

2633
02:09:40,539 --> 02:09:42,642
Batista.

2634
02:09:42,708 --> 02:09:46,579
[Michael] Will Batista
mow down the competition tonight?

2635
02:09:46,646 --> 02:09:49,447
We saw what The Animal is capable of

2636
02:09:49,514 --> 02:09:51,951
two nights ago on SmackDown, JBL,

2637
02:09:52,084 --> 02:09:56,422
when he cleared the ring of everybody,
including his friend, Lashley.

2638
02:09:56,489 --> 02:09:58,290
[JBL] We saw what Batista's capable off.

2639
02:09:58,590 --> 02:10:02,228
We've also seen what Lashley,
Finlay and the King are capable of,

2640
02:10:02,295 --> 02:10:04,263
all four guys, Michael.

2641
02:10:04,463 --> 02:10:08,401
When in history have you seen
four of SmackDown's greatest stars

2642
02:10:08,467 --> 02:10:10,068
at the top of their game

2643
02:10:10,369 --> 02:10:14,406
in one ring for one championship?

2644
02:10:14,674 --> 02:10:18,177
And the most important
championship there is.

2645
02:10:21,414 --> 02:10:24,750
["Dead White Guys" playing]

2646
02:10:27,585 --> 02:10:30,955
[Michael] Coming to the ring for perhaps,
the very last time as champion.

2647
02:10:31,022 --> 02:10:34,759
[announcer] And being accompanied
to the ring by Queen Sharmell,

2648
02:10:34,893 --> 02:10:36,696
from Houston, Texas,

2649
02:10:36,896 --> 02:10:40,665
weighing in at 256 pounds,

2650
02:10:40,866 --> 02:10:45,771
he is the World Heavyweight Champion,

2651
02:10:46,004 --> 02:10:48,007
King Booker.

2652
02:10:48,074 --> 02:10:49,942
[Michael] Well, King Booker is not happy.

2653
02:10:50,108 --> 02:10:53,079
It seems like over the past 48 hours,

2654
02:10:53,144 --> 02:10:54,679
everything has crumbled.

2655
02:10:54,746 --> 02:10:56,781
The palace has crumbled down.

2656
02:10:56,848 --> 02:10:59,951
Of course, on Friday night,
he found out he was in a Fatal 4-Way,

2657
02:11:00,018 --> 02:11:02,455
tonight he lost his court,
Finlay and Regal.

2658
02:11:02,521 --> 02:11:05,523
[JBL] Even Regal knocked him
on his ass a few minutes ago.

2659
02:11:05,590 --> 02:11:07,492
What is Teddy Long thinking?

2660
02:11:07,559 --> 02:11:12,098
What a disadvantage and a disservice
that Teddy Long has done to SmackDown

2661
02:11:12,164 --> 02:11:14,299
by putting the King out there

2662
02:11:14,567 --> 02:11:17,135
-and the odds stacked against him.
-[Michael] A disservice?

2663
02:11:17,202 --> 02:11:18,737
[JBL] You're damn right it's a disservice.

2664
02:11:19,205 --> 02:11:21,107
The King is at the top of his game.

2665
02:11:21,173 --> 02:11:24,110
Now, he's got a 25 percent chance

2666
02:11:24,309 --> 02:11:26,712
of losing his championship.

2667
02:11:27,012 --> 02:11:30,782
Stacked the odd against him.
He doesn't even have to get beat

2668
02:11:31,282 --> 02:11:32,918
to lose his championship.

2669
02:11:33,018 --> 02:11:37,156
[Michael] Hey, math major, it's actually--
He has a 25 percent chance of keeping it.

2670
02:11:37,223 --> 02:11:39,491
[JBL] Whatever, like you run numbers.

2671
02:11:39,558 --> 02:11:41,994
Come work for me on Wall Street,
I have a lot of people

2672
02:11:42,061 --> 02:11:43,829
that work for me that run numbers.

2673
02:11:43,896 --> 02:11:47,199
I don't work the calculator, moron,
I have peons to do it.

2674
02:11:47,266 --> 02:11:48,467
[Michael] Maybe you should bring them here

2675
02:11:48,567 --> 02:11:50,068
to help you get though
the numbers of this matchup.

2676
02:11:50,135 --> 02:11:51,871
[JBL] I have you for that reason.

2677
02:11:51,937 --> 02:11:53,438
[Michael] Well, the numbers are simple,

2678
02:11:53,505 --> 02:11:55,508
it's a Fatal 4-Way.

2679
02:11:55,840 --> 02:11:58,411
All four men in the ring at the same time,

2680
02:11:58,477 --> 02:12:01,013
the first man to gain
pinfall or submission

2681
02:12:01,446 --> 02:12:04,083
will be the world champion.

2682
02:12:04,750 --> 02:12:07,085
And for those of you
who are counting numbers,

2683
02:12:07,152 --> 02:12:11,956
this is the 78th day
in the reign of our lord, King Booker,

2684
02:12:12,023 --> 02:12:13,526
like he would like to tell us.

2685
02:12:14,058 --> 02:12:16,629
[JBL] I count money, jackass,
I do that well.

2686
02:12:16,695 --> 02:12:19,231
-[Michael] King Booker--
-[JBL] And I have a lot of it, so shut up.

2687
02:12:19,932 --> 02:12:22,498
[Michael] The intensity of King Booker
and all four men in this matchup.

2688
02:12:22,608 --> 02:12:23,777
-And here we go.
-[bell ringing]

2689
02:12:23,873 --> 02:12:25,603
[Michael] All four men
in the ring at the same time.

2690
02:12:25,670 --> 02:12:26,672
Look at Finlay.

2691
02:12:26,739 --> 02:12:28,441
Finlay not going
to be in the matchup to start,

2692
02:12:28,674 --> 02:12:32,076
perhaps, going to let Batista and Lashley
do the dirty work on Booker.

2693
02:12:32,344 --> 02:12:34,879
[JBL] And talk about
four combustible elements.

2694
02:12:34,946 --> 02:12:37,415
[Michael] Let's talk about strategy
in this matchup, JBL.

2695
02:12:39,351 --> 02:12:41,253
You pick the bones, it's that simple.

2696
02:12:41,320 --> 02:12:43,455
You survive these matches.

2697
02:12:43,989 --> 02:12:47,026
You don't win this matches,
you survive them.

2698
02:12:47,092 --> 02:12:50,196
[Michael] Well, Batista and Lashley
working as a team in the early going

2699
02:12:50,295 --> 02:12:52,097
against the world champion, King Booker.

2700
02:12:52,364 --> 02:12:55,334
Finlay back into the ring
and attacks Lashley from behind.

2701
02:12:55,968 --> 02:12:59,205
Finlay is the man who pinned
the world champion, Booker

2702
02:12:59,271 --> 02:13:01,173
two nights ago on SmackDown.

2703
02:13:01,240 --> 02:13:04,076
[JBL] You pick your spots, Michael,
that's what Finlay's doing.

2704
02:13:04,143 --> 02:13:07,980
That's what the ring veteran is so good at
and that's what you do in these matches.

2705
02:13:08,214 --> 02:13:09,748
[Michael] Well,
Finlay attacking now, Batista

2706
02:13:09,815 --> 02:13:11,916
after sending Lashley outside the ring.

2707
02:13:11,983 --> 02:13:13,952
[Finlay] Whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

2708
02:13:14,219 --> 02:13:15,888
-You and I are gonna get him.
-[JBL] Wait a minute.

2709
02:13:17,255 --> 02:13:19,991
[Michael] Well, Finlay just told
King Booker, "Wait a minute,

2710
02:13:20,058 --> 02:13:21,326
we've got to get Batista."

2711
02:13:21,393 --> 02:13:23,295
And now, both men
going to work on Lashley.

2712
02:13:23,362 --> 02:13:26,130
-[JBL] I think they are getting together.
-[Michael] Maybe they are.

2713
02:13:26,197 --> 02:13:27,833
[JBL] I think they're going
to work like a team.

2714
02:13:29,201 --> 02:13:31,504
-Good, good.
-[Michael] King Booker with a smile

2715
02:13:31,603 --> 02:13:33,638
replacing the scowl on his face.

2716
02:13:33,906 --> 02:13:36,808
[JBL] Thank goodness,
the King has an ally.

2717
02:13:38,309 --> 02:13:41,480
[Michael] Well, now, he has a 50 percent
chance of keeping the championship.

2718
02:13:41,714 --> 02:13:43,682
Get it? Half and half
if Finlay works with him.

2719
02:13:43,982 --> 02:13:47,706
Anyway, King Booker and Finlay
really taking it to The Animal

2720
02:13:47,831 --> 02:13:49,388
-in this Fatal 4-Way.
-[JBL] Yeah. You have a half--

2721
02:13:49,487 --> 02:13:51,857
you have a 50 percent
chance of getting a woman tonight.

2722
02:13:52,324 --> 02:13:55,027
[Michael] That's great. If I'm with you,
I'll have a zero percent chance.

2723
02:13:55,126 --> 02:13:59,298
And look at King Booker and Finlay
really taking it to Batista.

2724
02:13:59,365 --> 02:14:02,500
Lashley attacking Finlay from behind,
sending Finlay out.

2725
02:14:02,567 --> 02:14:04,169
Now, is this good strategy, John?

2726
02:14:04,503 --> 02:14:06,906
You try to get opponents out of the ring
and try to at least get you

2727
02:14:07,057 --> 02:14:08,540
with a one-on-one situation with somebody?

2728
02:14:08,607 --> 02:14:10,976
[JBL] Absolutely.
If you have three people fighting,

2729
02:14:11,043 --> 02:14:13,077
no matter what,
there's not going to be a pinfall,

2730
02:14:13,144 --> 02:14:15,813
there's not going to be a cover
that goes past a two count

2731
02:14:15,880 --> 02:14:18,284
because somebody's there to break it up.

2732
02:14:18,349 --> 02:14:20,152
You have to isolate somebody,

2733
02:14:20,219 --> 02:14:23,121
you have to isolate
the weight of this person,

2734
02:14:23,187 --> 02:14:25,723
whether he's hurt, whether he's tired,

2735
02:14:25,790 --> 02:14:27,492
whether he's a little disoriented

2736
02:14:27,559 --> 02:14:30,562
and you've got to try
to capture a win quickly.

2737
02:14:30,663 --> 02:14:32,598
[Michael] And these are the two men
who were supposed to be

2738
02:14:32,665 --> 02:14:35,968
in a one-on-one matchup here tonight,
Lashley and King Booker.

2739
02:14:36,335 --> 02:14:38,003
But instead, it's a Fatal 4-Way.

2740
02:14:38,070 --> 02:14:41,639
There's the strength of Lashley,
spinebuster, first cover of the matchup.

2741
02:14:41,706 --> 02:14:43,208
Hook of the leg, could he have him here?

2742
02:14:43,275 --> 02:14:44,809
And a kickout at two.

2743
02:14:45,244 --> 02:14:47,913
If Lashley had pinned the King,
he'd be champion.

2744
02:14:47,980 --> 02:14:49,080
[JBL] That'd be it.

2745
02:14:49,481 --> 02:14:52,718
[Michael] Fatal 4-Way rules
here on the main event of No Mercy.

2746
02:14:53,152 --> 02:14:57,056
[JBL] That's how quickly things
can happen in a Fatal 4-Way.

2747
02:14:57,489 --> 02:15:00,092
[Michael] You know Lashley,
by all rights-- And look at Finlay.

2748
02:15:00,960 --> 02:15:03,228
-Wait, I thought he was going to--
-[JBL] They're working together.

2749
02:15:03,295 --> 02:15:05,097
[Michael] Well, he-- Perhaps they are.

2750
02:15:05,164 --> 02:15:06,932
Lashley went for the baseball slide.

2751
02:15:06,999 --> 02:15:08,467
And both men double teaming Lashley.

2752
02:15:09,735 --> 02:15:12,071
Finlay pulled King Booker
out of harm's way.

2753
02:15:12,304 --> 02:15:13,571
[JBL] He's helping the King.

2754
02:15:14,807 --> 02:15:17,175
Thank goodness
the King is using his court.

2755
02:15:17,241 --> 02:15:19,644
[Michael] Lashley driven kidney first
into the apron.

2756
02:15:19,712 --> 02:15:23,514
So perhaps, what we heard
from Finlay earlier on was all a ploy

2757
02:15:23,648 --> 02:15:26,986
to throw Batista and Lashley off,
it could've been a bluff.

2758
02:15:29,455 --> 02:15:30,556
King Booker.

2759
02:15:33,625 --> 02:15:36,894
And the flexibility of the champion
knocking The Animal down.

2760
02:15:37,329 --> 02:15:39,464
Finlay driving the elbows
into the sternum.

2761
02:15:40,331 --> 02:15:43,568
And Booker and Finlay
taking apart Batista.

2762
02:15:43,635 --> 02:15:48,941
[JBL] These guys working like a team,
the King will retain his throne.

2763
02:15:49,008 --> 02:15:51,943
[Michael] Batista and King Booker
with a long history.

2764
02:15:53,112 --> 02:15:55,647
Met at SummerSlam,
Queen Sharmell's involvement

2765
02:15:55,748 --> 02:15:58,150
preventing Batista from winning
the championship there,

2766
02:15:58,282 --> 02:16:00,385
then on SmackDown last month as well.

2767
02:16:00,719 --> 02:16:04,490
[JBL] Quit making excuses.
Quit making excuses for Batista.

2768
02:16:04,757 --> 02:16:06,191
[Michael]
I'm not making excuses for anybody,

2769
02:16:06,258 --> 02:16:09,695
but I wasn't sort of impressed
with the Finlay-King Booker high five,

2770
02:16:09,762 --> 02:16:11,397
and now the double team.

2771
02:16:15,034 --> 02:16:16,035
Batista's in trouble.

2772
02:16:16,101 --> 02:16:18,237
Lashley's been taken out outside the ring.

2773
02:16:18,570 --> 02:16:21,740
[JBL] I feel a lot better
about the King's chances right now.

2774
02:16:21,807 --> 02:16:24,108
[Michael] Oh, boy,
I'm glad you feel better.

2775
02:16:24,242 --> 02:16:25,576
[JBL] This is a good day.

2776
02:16:30,182 --> 02:16:33,118
The queen is loving it. So am I, Michael.

2777
02:16:33,184 --> 02:16:35,119
[Michael]
Each man trying to outdo the other.

2778
02:16:35,187 --> 02:16:38,423
[JBL] There's nothing better
than a good old-fashioned

2779
02:16:38,490 --> 02:16:40,392
orchestrated butt-whipping.

2780
02:16:40,458 --> 02:16:44,395
[Michael] Finlay, with the Irish whip
of Batista across the ring.

2781
02:16:44,596 --> 02:16:47,132
But Booker missed the clothesline,
but Finlay followed it up.

2782
02:16:47,199 --> 02:16:48,199
[JBL] Team work.

2783
02:16:49,967 --> 02:16:51,602
[JBL] Why you got to call it Irish whip?

2784
02:16:51,837 --> 02:16:53,739
-[Michael] That's what it's called.
-[JBL] You xenophobe.

2785
02:16:54,840 --> 02:16:57,142
[Michael] King Booker with the-- Oh, my.

2786
02:16:57,308 --> 02:16:58,743
[JBL] What are you doing, Finlay?

2787
02:16:58,843 --> 02:17:00,978
[Michael] I'll tell you what he's doing,
he's trying to win a championship,

2788
02:17:01,080 --> 02:17:02,314
is what Finlay's doing.

2789
02:17:02,481 --> 02:17:05,316
[JBL] Finlay, you disingenuous bastard.

2790
02:17:05,651 --> 02:17:07,553
[Michael] What's wrong with that?
I think it's pretty funny.

2791
02:17:07,618 --> 02:17:10,055
And Finlay, sending Batista
out of the ring,

2792
02:17:10,121 --> 02:17:12,190
it's every man for himself.

2793
02:17:12,725 --> 02:17:14,225
[JBL] What is Finlay thinking?

2794
02:17:14,425 --> 02:17:15,827
[Michael] Well, I'll tell you
what he's thinking,

2795
02:17:15,894 --> 02:17:17,628
he's thinking, let's take out Batista.

2796
02:17:17,762 --> 02:17:20,665
Lashley's already taken out,
now it's down to Finlay,

2797
02:17:20,832 --> 02:17:25,136
King Booker, one-on-one
and the fighting Irishman

2798
02:17:25,204 --> 02:17:27,371
feeling confident against the champion.

2799
02:17:27,740 --> 02:17:29,407
[JBL] You see what Teddy Long has done?

2800
02:17:30,242 --> 02:17:32,744
He's turned the court against themselves.

2801
02:17:32,811 --> 02:17:35,547
[Michael] Watch Finlay
turning his back on King Booker.

2802
02:17:39,484 --> 02:17:41,085
Chivalry is not dead.

2803
02:17:41,252 --> 02:17:43,922
[JBL] Now, chivalry gone quiet,
it's decapitated.

2804
02:17:44,021 --> 02:17:46,324
[Michael]
Finlay with an elbow to the sternum

2805
02:17:46,492 --> 02:17:48,059
and King Booker's in trouble.

2806
02:17:48,660 --> 02:17:50,628
It has not been a good night for the King,

2807
02:17:50,862 --> 02:17:54,099
Regal punched him in the face,
deservedly so, a few moments ago.

2808
02:17:54,398 --> 02:17:57,035
Finlay now, trying to win a championship.

2809
02:17:57,770 --> 02:18:00,339
[JBL] This is not right.
Leave his hair alone.

2810
02:18:00,505 --> 02:18:01,773
[Michael] What do you mean,
this isn't right?

2811
02:18:01,840 --> 02:18:03,174
It's about winning the title.

2812
02:18:03,242 --> 02:18:05,677
You're the guy who runs around
and says you do whatever you take--

2813
02:18:05,778 --> 02:18:07,546
-whatever it takes to be a champion.
-[JBL] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

2814
02:18:07,679 --> 02:18:08,780
But the odds are stacked…

2815
02:18:08,847 --> 02:18:10,482
-[Michael] Oh, look at this.
-…so much against Booker.

2816
02:18:10,548 --> 02:18:12,416
[Michael] Lashley is trying
to get back into the ring and Finlay…

2817
02:18:12,484 --> 02:18:14,019
-[JBL] It's not fair.
-…made sure it didn't happen.

2818
02:18:14,085 --> 02:18:16,387
King Booker trying to battle
back with the right hand to Finlay.

2819
02:18:16,455 --> 02:18:17,990
Finlay with the thumb to the eye.

2820
02:18:18,056 --> 02:18:19,157
[JBL] It's not fair.

2821
02:18:19,224 --> 02:18:21,559
[Michael]
The former United States champion,

2822
02:18:21,627 --> 02:18:24,329
Finlay, right to the sternum.

2823
02:18:24,529 --> 02:18:26,565
Here's the cover.
Championship on the line.

2824
02:18:26,698 --> 02:18:28,332
Batista breaks up the three count.

2825
02:18:28,966 --> 02:18:30,269
[JBL] This is sad.

2826
02:18:30,334 --> 02:18:33,605
[Michael] Remember, first man to gain
pinfall or submission wins the title.

2827
02:18:33,672 --> 02:18:36,775
Finlay knows all about
what it's like to be the champion

2828
02:18:36,841 --> 02:18:38,777
and not to lose the match
but lose your title.

2829
02:18:38,976 --> 02:18:42,181
He lost his United States Championship
in a Triple Threat match

2830
02:18:42,314 --> 02:18:44,182
when Kennedy pinned Lashley.

2831
02:18:44,415 --> 02:18:46,584
Finlay was never involved
in the decision there.

2832
02:18:47,820 --> 02:18:49,054
[JBL] That was different.

2833
02:18:49,253 --> 02:18:52,491
The odds are stacked
against the King today and it's not fair.

2834
02:18:53,125 --> 02:18:55,226
[Michael] Mr. Jimmy,
the great the math major.

2835
02:18:55,459 --> 02:18:57,296
[Michael] Whine, whine, whine.

2836
02:18:57,930 --> 02:19:01,600
Batista in trouble.
Finlay working on the left arm.

2837
02:19:02,100 --> 02:19:04,969
King Booker's been taken out,
Lashley's been taken out.

2838
02:19:05,037 --> 02:19:08,073
There's the strength of The Animal,
the Samoan drop by Batista,

2839
02:19:08,139 --> 02:19:09,576
-but Finlay--
-[JBL] He got hold of the arm.

2840
02:19:09,677 --> 02:19:11,243
[Michael] Finlay still's
got the arm locked in.

2841
02:19:13,178 --> 02:19:16,647
That's the relentless pursuit
of this title by Finlay.

2842
02:19:16,914 --> 02:19:20,585
[JBL] And Batista has
tore a tricep before.

2843
02:19:21,352 --> 02:19:23,589
[Michael] Yes, just under a year ago.

2844
02:19:24,189 --> 02:19:26,791
Lashley. Oh, look at Finlay
just picked the leg.

2845
02:19:28,559 --> 02:19:32,331
Every opponent that comes into the ring,
Lashley just seem to take out,

2846
02:19:32,630 --> 02:19:33,966
take out of the equation.

2847
02:19:34,332 --> 02:19:35,367
Come on, Lashley.

2848
02:19:35,700 --> 02:19:37,068
[Michael] Lashley taps out here,

2849
02:19:37,235 --> 02:19:39,304
-Finlay would be champion.
-[JBL] But how about Finlay?

2850
02:19:39,471 --> 02:19:41,672
Finlay the Irishman that loves to fight.

2851
02:19:42,440 --> 02:19:44,877
He's taking it to Booker,
he's taking it to Lashley,

2852
02:19:45,010 --> 02:19:46,744
he's taking it to Batista,

2853
02:19:46,878 --> 02:19:50,616
Finlay wants the world championship
to go back to Belfast with.

2854
02:19:50,716 --> 02:19:51,850
[Michael] That's what I just said.

2855
02:19:51,984 --> 02:19:54,019
-Nonetheless this--
-[JBL] I said it more eloquently.

2856
02:19:54,086 --> 02:19:56,622
[Michael] This half Boston crab
is a submission move.

2857
02:19:56,688 --> 02:20:00,559
If Lashley taps out,
Finlay will be crowned champion.

2858
02:20:01,760 --> 02:20:04,262
King Booker, realizing that,
makes Finlay pay.

2859
02:20:06,231 --> 02:20:08,734
Queen Sharmell likes what she sees.

2860
02:20:08,800 --> 02:20:10,101
King Booker into the cover.

2861
02:20:10,168 --> 02:20:13,305
The only way he can keep the title
is to pin or make someone submit.

2862
02:20:13,372 --> 02:20:15,539
And Batista breaks up at three counts.

2863
02:20:15,707 --> 02:20:19,077
[JBL] All four men in the ring, Michael,
to win this championship,

2864
02:20:19,144 --> 02:20:21,012
they got to isolate somebody.

2865
02:20:21,079 --> 02:20:23,949
All four men in the ring,
you're not going to get a pinfall

2866
02:20:24,016 --> 02:20:25,817
that wins a championship.

2867
02:20:25,951 --> 02:20:27,519
[referee] Batista,
come on, get out of the ropes.

2868
02:20:28,086 --> 02:20:30,956
[Michael] Look at Batista
working on King Booker.

2869
02:20:34,760 --> 02:20:38,130
Batista, the former champion,

2870
02:20:38,931 --> 02:20:41,565
injured the triceps last-- late last year,

2871
02:20:41,667 --> 02:20:45,369
relinquished the championship
back in January because of that injury.

2872
02:20:45,437 --> 02:20:47,372
And Batista's made it a mission since then

2873
02:20:47,806 --> 02:20:50,676
to return and recapture
the title he never lost.

2874
02:20:51,510 --> 02:20:55,614
King Booker. There's that flexibility,
that's what I'm talking about.

2875
02:20:55,714 --> 02:20:57,582
[JBL] Just took his head off.

2876
02:20:57,783 --> 02:20:59,551
-[Michael] King Booker…
-Finish him off.

2877
02:20:59,618 --> 02:21:04,155
…into the cover, hooks the leg,
shoulders down and a kickout at two.

2878
02:21:04,922 --> 02:21:05,991
Watch this.

2879
02:21:09,795 --> 02:21:12,831
And we can say what we want
about King Booker's persona,

2880
02:21:12,898 --> 02:21:15,567
whether he's living in,
uh, a fantasy world or not,

2881
02:21:15,667 --> 02:21:18,869
but the bottom line is,
he is one of the most decorated champions

2882
02:21:18,937 --> 02:21:20,706
in the history of sports entertainment.

2883
02:21:20,905 --> 02:21:23,141
[JBL] Since the days
he started in the sport,

2884
02:21:23,207 --> 02:21:28,313
he won so many championships in WCW,
including five times world champion,

2885
02:21:28,613 --> 02:21:32,417
he may be one of the greatest
champions of all time.

2886
02:21:32,484 --> 02:21:34,519
[Michael] And Batista off a sideslam.

2887
02:21:35,252 --> 02:21:36,555
[JBL] Still favoring that arm.

2888
02:21:37,788 --> 02:21:40,759
[Michael] Trying to capitalize,
hooks the leg, shoulders down,

2889
02:21:40,826 --> 02:21:42,594
two count and kickout by the King.

2890
02:21:42,661 --> 02:21:46,030
[JBL] What a career the King has had
and what a shame it would be

2891
02:21:46,098 --> 02:21:47,899
if he loses the championship tonight

2892
02:21:47,966 --> 02:21:50,435
because Teddy Long
stacked the odds against him.

2893
02:21:50,502 --> 02:21:52,170
[Michael] So you're saying that--
oh, look at Lashley,

2894
02:21:52,237 --> 02:21:53,505
knocking the King over the top rope.

2895
02:21:53,572 --> 02:21:55,574
So you're saying
King Booker's career's over?

2896
02:21:55,674 --> 02:21:57,743
-As Lashley sends Batista…
-[JBL] No. I'm saying it's a shame.

2897
02:21:57,842 --> 02:21:59,344
[Michael] …over the top rope.
Wait a minute.

2898
02:22:00,045 --> 02:22:01,213
Finlay with a chair.

2899
02:22:01,546 --> 02:22:02,913
Chair went flying.

2900
02:22:03,047 --> 02:22:05,050
Anything goes in this Fatal 4-Way.

2901
02:22:07,052 --> 02:22:10,889
Lashley with the advantage,
the powerhouse taking it out on Finlay.

2902
02:22:11,422 --> 02:22:13,692
Bobby Lashley is a man.

2903
02:22:14,659 --> 02:22:16,360
-High elbow.
-[JBL] Not sure man covers it.

2904
02:22:16,994 --> 02:22:18,930
The guy is superhuman.

2905
02:22:19,331 --> 02:22:21,633
What a freak of nature.

2906
02:22:22,000 --> 02:22:23,268
-[Michael] Lashley.
-[JBL] Look at this.

2907
02:22:23,368 --> 02:22:25,136
-[Michael] Military press.
-[JBL] Look at this.

2908
02:22:25,203 --> 02:22:27,372
[Michael] A military press to Finlay.

2909
02:22:28,240 --> 02:22:29,741
And a knee to the gut.

2910
02:22:29,808 --> 02:22:32,010
[JBL] World championship
at stake, Michael.

2911
02:22:32,944 --> 02:22:35,580
-This could be it.
-[Michael] Hey, it's the Little Bastard,

2912
02:22:35,881 --> 02:22:40,351
that leprechaun, Finlay's buddy,
with a low blow to Lashley.

2913
02:22:40,419 --> 02:22:44,489
Now, Finlay with a shillelagh
right off the skull of Lashley.

2914
02:22:44,689 --> 02:22:46,224
Finlay's going to steal the championship.

2915
02:22:46,323 --> 02:22:47,526
[JBL] Finlay's got the world championship.

2916
02:22:47,591 --> 02:22:48,794
-[Michael] Not this way.
-[JBL] Yes.

2917
02:22:48,960 --> 02:22:51,029
[Michael] And King Booker saves his title.

2918
02:22:52,931 --> 02:22:55,133
Here's King Booker, hook to the leg,

2919
02:22:55,400 --> 02:22:58,470
shoulders down and Lashley kicks out.

2920
02:22:59,003 --> 02:23:02,641
A cover again. Again, Finlay from behind.

2921
02:23:04,543 --> 02:23:08,046
[JBL] World championship at stake,
Michael, you pull out all the stops.

2922
02:23:08,145 --> 02:23:10,315
You pull out the leprechaun,
you pull out a chair,

2923
02:23:10,414 --> 02:23:11,582
you do whatever you have to do.

2924
02:23:11,650 --> 02:23:13,952
[Michael] Finlay covering Lashley,
championship on the line.

2925
02:23:14,019 --> 02:23:16,188
King Booker breaks up
the three count again.

2926
02:23:16,555 --> 02:23:18,190
Watch the Little Bastard.

2927
02:23:21,693 --> 02:23:25,130
And then Finlay
with the shillelagh off the skull.

2928
02:23:26,030 --> 02:23:28,199
And Finlay, I believe
was going to win the title there.

2929
02:23:28,600 --> 02:23:32,671
Remember, first man to gain pinfall
or submission wins the championship.

2930
02:23:32,737 --> 02:23:35,539
Champ does not have to pinned
to lose the title.

2931
02:23:35,740 --> 02:23:39,077
[JBL] More importantly,
you have Lashley that is out.

2932
02:23:39,511 --> 02:23:44,116
Now is the time to isolate somebody
and try to win a world championship.

2933
02:23:44,249 --> 02:23:46,585
[Michael] Batista back in the ring,
right hands to King Booker.

2934
02:23:46,651 --> 02:23:48,653
Batista, hammering away on the champion.

2935
02:23:49,020 --> 02:23:51,823
Finlay back into the ring,
runs into Batista as well.

2936
02:23:51,922 --> 02:23:53,457
The Animal starting to fire up.

2937
02:23:55,127 --> 02:23:58,196
Finlay whipped across the ring,
Batista with a clothesline,

2938
02:23:58,529 --> 02:24:00,198
measuring the champion.

2939
02:24:00,966 --> 02:24:02,000
Come on.

2940
02:24:03,668 --> 02:24:05,170
[JBL] Quit yelling for the crowd, Batista,

2941
02:24:05,270 --> 02:24:07,806
you want to win a championship,
now is your chance.

2942
02:24:07,873 --> 02:24:09,573
[Michael] Well, he's got
a great opportunity.

2943
02:24:11,976 --> 02:24:12,978
[Batista] Come on.

2944
02:24:15,413 --> 02:24:16,982
[Michael] Champ in trouble.

2945
02:24:18,116 --> 02:24:19,518
-Vertical suplex.
-[JBL] Jackhammer.

2946
02:24:19,751 --> 02:24:20,886
-Jackhammer.
-[Michael] Here we go,

2947
02:24:20,952 --> 02:24:22,287
over the jackhammer slam.

2948
02:24:22,420 --> 02:24:24,623
Finlay into the ring,
runs into a clothesline.

2949
02:24:25,390 --> 02:24:29,060
It started out as a delayed vertical,
Batista turned into a jackhammer slam,

2950
02:24:29,161 --> 02:24:31,529
might've won the championship
if it wasn't for Finlay.

2951
02:24:31,930 --> 02:24:33,765
-And now look at this.
-[JBL] Here we go.

2952
02:24:33,865 --> 02:24:36,768
[Michael] This is the epitome
of every man for himself.

2953
02:24:36,868 --> 02:24:38,502
[JBL] King versus Kong.

2954
02:24:39,136 --> 02:24:42,340
Batista and Lashley, very good friends.

2955
02:24:42,440 --> 02:24:44,609
[JBL] This is what I want to see, Michael.

2956
02:24:44,943 --> 02:24:47,145
Two freaks go at it.

2957
02:24:47,846 --> 02:24:49,114
Look at these guys.

2958
02:24:49,314 --> 02:24:52,050
Loading with athletic ability,
loading with power.

2959
02:24:52,384 --> 02:24:54,186
[Michael] What a spear by Batista.

2960
02:24:54,351 --> 02:24:57,255
Here's the cover.
Hooks of the leg, he's got it--

2961
02:24:57,322 --> 02:24:58,823
No, Lashley kicks out.

2962
02:24:59,257 --> 02:25:03,161
Cover again, championship on the line,
Lashley kicks out at two.

2963
02:25:03,562 --> 02:25:07,198
A third cover, a third,
hook of the leg and a third kickout.

2964
02:25:09,401 --> 02:25:11,136
[JBL] Every man for himself, Michael.

2965
02:25:12,103 --> 02:25:16,107
I told you, to win this match,
you simply have to survive.

2966
02:25:16,508 --> 02:25:19,678
Did you see the force at which Batista
hit Lashley with that spear?

2967
02:25:19,743 --> 02:25:21,213
[JBL] Almost broke him in half.

2968
02:25:21,279 --> 02:25:22,881
[Michael] Now, right back
to work in the midsection.

2969
02:25:22,981 --> 02:25:25,283
Driving the shoulders
into the gut and the ribs.

2970
02:25:25,750 --> 02:25:28,619
He may have damaged ribs,
Lashley may, after that spear.

2971
02:25:29,955 --> 02:25:31,756
Lashley right into the corner.

2972
02:25:31,823 --> 02:25:33,692
Batista follows it up with a clothesline.

2973
02:25:34,592 --> 02:25:36,860
Booker and Finlay
out of the equation for now.

2974
02:25:36,928 --> 02:25:39,163
Batista trying to capitalize.

2975
02:25:42,333 --> 02:25:43,835
-And Batista, planted.
-[JBL] Spinebuster.

2976
02:25:44,035 --> 02:25:46,404
[Michael] I believe Batista's
been busted open as well.

2977
02:25:46,471 --> 02:25:49,039
-Blood is pouring…
-[JBL] Busted open.

2978
02:25:49,140 --> 02:25:51,142
-…from the skull of Batista.
-[JBL] Holy cow.

2979
02:25:51,342 --> 02:25:53,712
[Michael] Not quite sure, John,
where that injury occurred.

2980
02:25:55,313 --> 02:25:57,215
[JBL] We got two bulls here, Michael.

2981
02:25:57,882 --> 02:26:00,952
You butt heads, you butt elbows,
anything can happen.

2982
02:26:01,386 --> 02:26:03,755
Two big, physical people,

2983
02:26:03,989 --> 02:26:06,491
this is what happens,
every man for himself.

2984
02:26:06,591 --> 02:26:11,395
[Michael] But the blood is flowing freely
from a wound in Batista's skull.

2985
02:26:13,265 --> 02:26:15,300
And Lashley with a clothesline.

2986
02:26:15,367 --> 02:26:16,835
[JBL] Explosive.

2987
02:26:17,335 --> 02:26:18,369
Look at Lashley.

2988
02:26:19,537 --> 02:26:21,405
[Michael] Another clothesline by Lashley.

2989
02:26:21,506 --> 02:26:23,707
Batista's face covered in blood.

2990
02:26:24,909 --> 02:26:27,045
Lashley has opened up Batista.

2991
02:26:30,414 --> 02:26:31,549
Lashley wants it.

2992
02:26:32,150 --> 02:26:33,851
Batista sent over the top rope.

2993
02:26:33,952 --> 02:26:37,655
One year after his debut,
he may be the next world champion.

2994
02:26:38,023 --> 02:26:40,457
-Batista and Finlay--
-[JBL] What a wise if he wins it.

2995
02:26:40,525 --> 02:26:42,160
[Michael] Both may have been eliminated.

2996
02:26:42,226 --> 02:26:43,528
And here's King Booker.

2997
02:26:43,895 --> 02:26:45,063
-[JBL] Oh, Book End.
-[Michael] Book End.

2998
02:26:45,163 --> 02:26:47,032
-[JBL] Book End.
-[Michael] Book End by the King.

2999
02:26:47,098 --> 02:26:47,966
[JBL] Get him, King.

3000
02:26:48,033 --> 02:26:49,301
[Michael] The King's going
to keep the title.

3001
02:26:49,367 --> 02:26:50,234
[JBL] Get him.

3002
02:26:50,302 --> 02:26:51,970
[Michael]
There's two and kickout by Lashley.

3003
02:26:54,172 --> 02:26:55,874
-[Michael] Lashley kicked out at two…
-Come on, King Booker.

3004
02:26:56,007 --> 02:26:57,676
-[Michael] …after the Book End.
-Come on, baby.

3005
02:26:59,678 --> 02:27:01,779
[Michael] What a physical match
this has been.

3006
02:27:02,881 --> 02:27:04,716
[JBL] It's about survival at this point

3007
02:27:04,916 --> 02:27:09,487
who has enough gas left in the tank
to win a world championship?

3008
02:27:09,554 --> 02:27:11,690
[Michael] And look at Lashley,
roll through, shoulders down--

3009
02:27:11,756 --> 02:27:14,225
Booker went for the suplex,
almost got caught by Lashley.

3010
02:27:15,260 --> 02:27:19,764
Lashley just powered King Booker down
as Booker went for the suplex.

3011
02:27:20,965 --> 02:27:23,768
[JBL] This is what world championships
were all about.

3012
02:27:23,967 --> 02:27:25,603
You put everything on the line.

3013
02:27:25,670 --> 02:27:28,306
You put your career on the line,
your body on the line,

3014
02:27:28,405 --> 02:27:31,975
all to walk home with the gold
and say you're world champion.

3015
02:27:32,043 --> 02:27:34,446
That's what it means to all these guys.

3016
02:27:35,447 --> 02:27:36,881
[Michael]
Booker missed with the clothesline,

3017
02:27:36,948 --> 02:27:40,618
Lashley, oh, and Booker explodes,
catching Lashley on the jaw.

3018
02:27:40,685 --> 02:27:43,321
Here's the cover, hook to the leg,
referee Nick Patrick

3019
02:27:43,455 --> 02:27:45,857
down for the count and half,
and a kickout at two and a half.

3020
02:27:46,091 --> 02:27:49,060
And the matchup continues,
the Fatal 4-Way

3021
02:27:49,127 --> 02:27:51,963
for the World Heavyweight Championship
at No Mercy.

3022
02:27:52,029 --> 02:27:53,198
[JBL] Lashley won't quit.

3023
02:27:53,264 --> 02:27:56,600
As good as King Booker is,
and he is great,

3024
02:27:57,234 --> 02:27:59,938
Lashley will simply not give up.

3025
02:28:00,038 --> 02:28:01,672
[Michael] And King Booker
measuring his man,

3026
02:28:02,172 --> 02:28:05,243
measuring Lashley perhaps
going for that Scissors Kick.

3027
02:28:05,543 --> 02:28:07,178
There's the kick to the midsection,

3028
02:28:07,312 --> 02:28:09,981
bounces off the rope
and Finlay with a clothesline

3029
02:28:10,115 --> 02:28:11,750
cut the King off at the pass.

3030
02:28:12,250 --> 02:28:14,819
-Here's Finlay into the cover.
-One, two…

3031
02:28:14,886 --> 02:28:16,788
[Michael] Shoulders down, kickout at two.

3032
02:28:18,990 --> 02:28:20,225
Oh, my.

3033
02:28:20,925 --> 02:28:24,429
Finlay, shoulder first into the steel.
Look at Batista.

3034
02:28:26,698 --> 02:28:28,065
Spinebuster.

3035
02:28:30,902 --> 02:28:33,270
Spinebuster to-- to King.

3036
02:28:35,340 --> 02:28:36,775
Spinebuster to Finlay.

3037
02:28:37,242 --> 02:28:39,811
[JBL] The Animal has been unleashed.

3038
02:28:39,877 --> 02:28:41,880
[crowd cheering]

3039
02:28:43,681 --> 02:28:46,017
[JBL] He said he wanted this
so bad, Michael.

3040
02:28:46,350 --> 02:28:50,889
Is Batista about to retain
the world championship?

3041
02:28:51,723 --> 02:28:55,627
Batista is about win the world title.

3042
02:28:56,795 --> 02:28:58,696
[Michael] Batista Bomb,
it's going to do it,

3043
02:28:58,830 --> 02:29:00,331
Batista's going to do it,

3044
02:29:00,465 --> 02:29:02,434
-and Lashley with a Spear.
-[JBL] Oh, my God.

3045
02:29:02,534 --> 02:29:04,903
[Michael] Lashley with a Spear to Batista

3046
02:29:05,103 --> 02:29:10,041
and King Booker crawling towards Finlay,
crawling towards Finlay.

3047
02:29:10,141 --> 02:29:12,277
-The King…
-[JBL] You pick the bones.

3048
02:29:12,377 --> 02:29:13,711
-…into the cover.
-[JBL] You pick the bones.

3049
02:29:13,812 --> 02:29:14,878
[Michael] Hooks the leg.

3050
02:29:15,046 --> 02:29:16,247
Not this way.

3051
02:29:16,514 --> 02:29:18,917
-The King retains the title.
-[bell ringing]

3052
02:29:19,050 --> 02:29:22,520
["Dead White Guys" playing]

3053
02:29:23,054 --> 02:29:26,491
[announcer] Here is your winner and still

3054
02:29:26,758 --> 02:29:30,028
World Heavyweight Champion,

3055
02:29:30,462 --> 02:29:32,797
-King Booker.
-[Michael] Damn it.

3056
02:29:33,030 --> 02:29:37,836
Batista did all the damage
and King Booker picked the bones,

3057
02:29:37,902 --> 02:29:41,005
picked the bones
of Finlay's falling carcass

3058
02:29:41,072 --> 02:29:44,809
and stole the victory retaining the title.

3059
02:29:44,876 --> 02:29:46,778
[JBL] All hail King Booker.

3060
02:29:47,110 --> 02:29:49,146
All hail King Booker.

3061
02:29:49,247 --> 02:29:50,948
How great is the King?

3062
02:29:51,082 --> 02:29:54,285
Now, you acknowledge,
Michael Cole, you damn peasant,

3063
02:29:54,385 --> 02:29:57,422
you acknowledge how great King Booker is.

3064
02:29:57,521 --> 02:30:00,792
[Michael] I'll acknowledge the fact
that that man Batista was moments away

3065
02:30:00,859 --> 02:30:05,330
from winning the world championship,
and King Booker was in the right place

3066
02:30:05,395 --> 02:30:07,832
at the right time to take advantage.

3067
02:30:07,899 --> 02:30:11,735
[JBL] It's not just about brawn,
it's about brains as well.

3068
02:30:12,337 --> 02:30:14,672
King Booker is the total package.

3069
02:30:14,905 --> 02:30:16,774
And he is still,

3070
02:30:17,275 --> 02:30:20,678
I said still, world champion.

3071
02:30:20,744 --> 02:30:24,047
[Michael] Batista, Lashley and Finlay
left it all in the ring.

3072
02:30:25,250 --> 02:30:28,186
Well, let's show you
what happened at the conclusion

3073
02:30:28,286 --> 02:30:30,188
of The World Champion Matchup.

3074
02:30:30,255 --> 02:30:33,157
It was the Batista Bomb laying Finlay out

3075
02:30:33,658 --> 02:30:36,060
and just as Batista was going for the win,

3076
02:30:36,160 --> 02:30:39,931
Lashley took Batista
out of the equation, and watch the King.

3077
02:30:40,564 --> 02:30:45,336
As we take another look,
watch the King crawl toward Finlay

3078
02:30:45,436 --> 02:30:48,873
and pick the bones of Finlay's carcass.

3079
02:30:48,939 --> 02:30:51,409
One, two, three.

3080
02:30:51,475 --> 02:30:52,510
[bell ringing]

3081
02:30:52,577 --> 02:30:55,346
[Michael] King Booker retains
the world championship.

3082
02:30:55,980 --> 02:30:59,449
The King reaps the benefits
and steals the victory.

3083
02:31:00,151 --> 02:31:04,255
King Booker's reign continues
into the 78th day of his glory.

3084
02:31:04,322 --> 02:31:05,757
[JBL] All hail King Booker.

3085
02:31:05,857 --> 02:31:07,892
[Michael] Thank you
for joining us for No Mercy.

3086

-Goodnight everybody…
