00:00:23,323 --> 00:00:24,424
[narrator] History…

00:00:25,158 --> 00:00:28,161
-[Percy] He's got the eye of the champ.
-[Mauro] Oh, my God!

00:00:28,228 --> 00:00:30,263
[narrator] …is written by the winners.

5
00:00:30,764 --> 00:00:33,433
[Mauro] Wait a minute! Johnny Gargano!

6
00:00:34,367 --> 00:00:36,536
[narrator] The history in one moment…

7
00:00:37,170 --> 00:00:38,772
[Mauro] What the hell!

8
00:00:38,838 --> 00:00:40,974
[narrator] …can forever
change its course.

00:00:41,041 --> 00:00:42,475
[bell ringing]

10
00:00:42,542 --> 00:00:46,780
[Mauro] Johnny Gargano's obsession
with Tommaso Ciampa

11
00:00:46,846 --> 00:00:50,917
cost Aleister Black the NXT Championship.

12
00:00:51,918 --> 00:00:54,687
[narrator] It is a history
with a promise of redemption.

13
00:00:54,754 --> 00:00:57,490
The NXT Championship will now be decided

14
00:00:57,557 --> 00:00:59,225
in a triple threat match.

15
00:00:59,826 --> 00:01:01,461
[narrator] Can be stolen

16
00:01:01,528 --> 00:01:03,196
in the blink of an eye.

17
00:01:03,263 --> 00:01:06,699
♪ What you gon' do ♪
When there's blood in the water ♪

18
00:01:08,234 --> 00:01:10,236
[narrator] But when the legacy
of a champion

19
00:01:10,670 --> 00:01:12,872
is victory through corruption,

20
00:01:14,641 --> 00:01:18,778
how can the noble
triumph in the face of evil?

21
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,184
Has the devious declared
their power through humans?

22
00:01:24,250 --> 00:01:27,954
If you're lucky, you may be able
to bask in the experience.

23
00:01:28,021 --> 00:01:29,622
[narrator] How can the tormented…

24
00:01:29,689 --> 00:01:32,759
Kairi, I have killer instinct. You don't.

25
00:01:33,026 --> 00:01:34,994
[narrator] Excel amidst the wicked.

26
00:01:35,061 --> 00:01:36,663
[Cole] Ricochet is not special.

27
00:01:38,264 --> 00:01:40,600
Adam Cole is special.

28
00:01:40,667 --> 00:01:43,703
And the Undisputed Era
continues to prove our dominance

29
00:01:43,770 --> 00:01:46,306
over this entire NXT roster.

00:01:46,372 --> 00:01:49,008
["Blood / Water" playing]

00:01:50,743 --> 00:01:55,415
[man] The time for talking has ceased.
The time to fight has come.

32
00:01:56,649 --> 00:01:57,817
I know it.

33
00:01:57,884 --> 00:02:00,453
[Ricochet] Adam Cole,
he's hiding behind the title.

34
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,088
[Kairi] You know it.

35
00:02:02,155 --> 00:02:03,623
Not about tricks up your sleeve.

36
00:02:03,690 --> 00:02:05,258
That's what Undisputed Era use.

37
00:02:05,325 --> 00:02:07,994
[Ricochet] You're looking
at the next American champion.

38
00:02:08,061 --> 00:02:09,896
See what happened at Royal Albert Hall?

39
00:02:09,963 --> 00:02:12,866
Same thing's gonna happen at TakeOver.

40
00:02:12,932 --> 00:02:14,534
[Kairi] I will beat you.

41
00:02:15,401 --> 00:02:18,505
[Mauro] All it takes is one moment

42
00:02:18,571 --> 00:02:20,507
to turn the tide.

43
00:02:21,274 --> 00:02:24,711
[announcer] In Brooklyn,
on NXT's grandest stage

44
00:02:24,777 --> 00:02:28,648
which superstars will make history?

45
00:02:29,516 --> 00:02:34,087
This is my NXT now!

46
00:02:36,156 --> 00:02:38,758
[Gargano] The only reason
you're an NXT champion

47
00:02:38,825 --> 00:02:40,326
is because of me.

48
00:02:42,195 --> 00:02:44,230
[Ciampa] Once again,

49
00:02:44,297 --> 00:02:47,333
Johnny Gargano loses

50
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,069
and I win.

51
00:02:51,304 --> 00:02:53,173
[Gargano] This is not your NXT.

52
00:02:54,774 --> 00:02:56,709
Not while I'm still breathing.

53
00:03:02,615 --> 00:03:06,352
[announcer] And now, WWE Network presents

54
00:03:06,853 --> 00:03:10,456

57
00:03:14,527 --> 00:03:16,029
[Mauro] It's SummerSlam weekend

58
00:03:16,095 --> 00:03:18,831
and the action is gonna be hotter
than a day at the beach.

59
00:03:18,898 --> 00:03:23,036
The ocean of talent in NXT
is deeper than Mariana trench

60
00:03:23,102 --> 00:03:26,406
and we're set for an evening
of trench warfare.

61
00:03:26,472 --> 00:03:28,541
It's all about grudges and gold

62
00:03:28,608 --> 00:03:31,644
at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn IV.

63
00:03:31,711 --> 00:03:36,516
[Nigel] A sellout crowd of 14,676

64
00:03:36,583 --> 00:03:38,051
at the Barclays Center.

65
00:03:38,117 --> 00:03:39,953
[Percy] We don't wanna waste more time

66
00:03:40,019 --> 00:03:42,088
because the first of our four matches

67
00:03:42,155 --> 00:03:43,489
starts right now.

72
00:04:03,343 --> 00:04:06,412
[Kayla] The following contest
scheduled for one fall

73
00:04:06,479 --> 00:04:11,951
is for the NXT Tag Team Championships!

74
00:04:12,952 --> 00:04:14,454
Making their way to the ring,

75
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,757
they are the NXT Tag Team champions,

76
00:04:17,824 --> 00:04:24,430
Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong,
the Undisputed Era!

77
00:04:24,497 --> 00:04:28,968
[Mauro] The summer of sleaze
continues for the Undisputed Era.

78
00:04:29,035 --> 00:04:30,603
They've joined the revival

79
00:04:30,670 --> 00:04:34,974
as the only two-time
NXT Tag Team champions

80
00:04:35,708 --> 00:04:39,112
in what was an instant classic

81
00:04:39,178 --> 00:04:41,981
against the upstart Mustache Mountain.

82
00:04:43,950 --> 00:04:47,220
[Percy] Mustache Mountain
pushed these guys to the very limit,

83
00:04:47,287 --> 00:04:48,254
but of course,

84
00:04:48,321 --> 00:04:50,556
he had to throw in the towel
to save his boy.

85
00:04:50,623 --> 00:04:51,457
He had no choice.

86
00:04:51,524 --> 00:04:54,394
He didn't want to see
Trent Seven, his mentor, get hurt.

87
00:04:57,130 --> 00:04:59,365
[Nigel] Undisputed Era
got me self-assured.

88
00:04:59,432 --> 00:05:01,834
They've got a swagger as champions

89
00:05:01,901 --> 00:05:04,637
that you don't see
with many other champions.

90
00:05:04,704 --> 00:05:06,005
I talked to Strong earlier.

91
00:05:06,072 --> 00:05:08,408
He said he feels that Mountain got lucky

92
00:05:08,474 --> 00:05:10,810
when they beat the Era
for the titles in England.

93
00:05:10,877 --> 00:05:12,278
It won't happen again.

94
00:05:17,984 --> 00:05:19,919
[Kayla] And their challengers,

95
00:05:19,986 --> 00:05:22,722
Tyler Bate, Trent Seven,

96
00:05:22,789 --> 00:05:26,192
Mustache Mountain!

97
00:05:26,259 --> 00:05:28,828
[Mauro] Talk about a bond.

98
00:05:28,895 --> 00:05:32,498
Trent Seven trained Tyler Bate.

99
00:05:32,565 --> 00:05:35,702
Together they have forged
a successful tandem

100
00:05:35,768 --> 00:05:36,903
as Mustache Mountain.

101
00:05:37,670 --> 00:05:42,342
Culminating with the biggest
moment of their partnership

102
00:05:42,408 --> 00:05:45,645
at Royal Albert Hall
in their native England in London,

103
00:05:45,712 --> 00:05:48,214
when they shocked the system

104
00:05:48,281 --> 00:05:51,250
by becoming NXT Tag Team champions.

105
00:05:51,317 --> 00:05:54,320
But then, well,
you talk about the bond, Nigel.

106
00:05:54,387 --> 00:05:57,523
Tyler Bate and the rematch
had to throw in the towel

107
00:05:57,590 --> 00:05:59,459
to save his mentor.

108
00:05:59,525 --> 00:06:02,095
[Nigel] From the very highs
to the very lows,

109
00:06:03,029 --> 00:06:06,766
losing those Tag Team
titles on the very first defense,

110
00:06:06,833 --> 00:06:11,637
your heart has got to go out
to the authentic battlers from England.

111
00:06:11,704 --> 00:06:12,972
I talked to them earlier,

112
00:06:13,039 --> 00:06:15,208
they said they realize they're underdogs.

113
00:06:15,274 --> 00:06:17,377
They feel that gives them the advantage.

114
00:06:17,443 --> 00:06:21,247
Because once they start doing better
than the Undisputed Era expects,

115
00:06:21,314 --> 00:06:25,318
it's going to cause the Era
to lose their cool and make a mistake.

116
00:06:25,385 --> 00:06:26,886
We'll see whether that happens.

117
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,256
[fans shouting]

118
00:06:30,323 --> 00:06:33,693
[Mauro] What a way to kick off
NXT TakeOver Brooklyn IV.

119
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:39,098
Remember, it was last year
at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn III

120
00:06:39,165 --> 00:06:43,202
where the Undisputed Era
really made its mark.

121
00:06:44,804 --> 00:06:48,508
The rival of a dominant… group,

122
00:06:48,574 --> 00:06:52,278
the capricious collective
led by Adam Cole,

123
00:06:52,345 --> 00:06:53,579
who we will see defend--

124
00:06:53,646 --> 00:06:54,480
[bell ringing]

125
00:06:54,547 --> 00:06:57,884
[Mauro] …the NXT North American
title later tonight

126
00:06:57,950 --> 00:07:00,019
against Ricochet, but it's Trent Seven,

127
00:07:00,086 --> 00:07:02,822
oh, and Roderick Strong wiped out Bate.

128
00:07:02,889 --> 00:07:04,724
And now with that right hand

129
00:07:04,791 --> 00:07:06,659
coldcocked Seven.

130
00:07:06,726 --> 00:07:08,327
Quick start by the U.E.

131
00:07:08,394 --> 00:07:10,229
[Nigel] See the way the Undisputed Era

132
00:07:10,296 --> 00:07:11,864
distracted Trent Seven

133
00:07:12,431 --> 00:07:15,501
to allow Roderick Strong
to get the offense in.

134
00:07:15,568 --> 00:07:20,072
[Percy] Smart move by Undisputed Era,
taking it right to Mustache Mountain.

135
00:07:20,139 --> 00:07:22,375
[Nigel] Era acting like the velociraptors.

136
00:07:23,476 --> 00:07:24,944
[Mauro] Roderick Strong

137
00:07:25,678 --> 00:07:26,813
and Kyle O'Reilly--

138
00:07:26,879 --> 00:07:29,182
Oh, reversal by Mustache Mountain.

139
00:07:30,783 --> 00:07:33,386
And the momentary standoff

140
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,255
and now we've got a slugfest to kick off

141
00:07:36,322 --> 00:07:38,958
this NXT Tag Team title confrontation.

142
00:07:39,025 --> 00:07:39,859
[Nigel] Oh!

143
00:07:39,926 --> 00:07:41,527
[Percy] Oh, yeah.

144
00:07:41,594 --> 00:07:43,529
[Mauro] The fate and the sucker punches

145
00:07:43,596 --> 00:07:45,665
from Bate and Seven.

146
00:07:45,731 --> 00:07:48,134
No feeling out process whatsoever.

147
00:07:49,402 --> 00:07:50,703
[Nigel] Action all over.

148
00:07:51,671 --> 00:07:53,906
[Mauro] Reminiscent of the classic battles

149
00:07:53,973 --> 00:07:57,143
between the midnight express
and the rock and roll express,

150
00:07:57,210 --> 00:08:00,146
the British bulldogs
and the Hart foundation.

151
00:08:00,213 --> 00:08:02,048
Roderick Strong originally trained

152
00:08:02,114 --> 00:08:04,484
by the late great
Jim "the Anvil" Neidhart.

153
00:08:04,550 --> 00:08:07,353
And we send our condolences
to the Hart family

154
00:08:07,420 --> 00:08:10,890
as Mustache Mountain
continues their onslaught.

155
00:08:13,025 --> 00:08:14,861
Bate able to cover,

156
00:08:14,927 --> 00:08:16,963
O'Reilly able to kick out, wow.

157
00:08:17,029 --> 00:08:19,966
[Nigel] After a bit of a false start
from Mustache Mountain,

158
00:08:20,032 --> 00:08:22,101
they've done very well. Wait a second.

159
00:08:22,168 --> 00:08:23,135
I spoke too soon.

160
00:08:23,202 --> 00:08:25,004
[Mauro] Roundhouse kick by O'Reilly.

161
00:08:25,071 --> 00:08:28,508
Tag is made and in comes
the Messiah of the back breaker,

162
00:08:28,574 --> 00:08:32,011
but he gets halted by Bate
and slammed to the canvas.

163
00:08:32,078 --> 00:08:34,847
[crowd cheering]

164
00:08:34,914 --> 00:08:39,452
[Mauro] Dueling chants
for these two ultra talented Tag Teams.

165
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:42,288
Seven with the cover
and the kickout by Strong.

166
00:08:42,355 --> 00:08:45,958
[Percy] Mustache Mountain didn't like
how the last title matchup went down.

167
00:08:46,025 --> 00:08:48,761
Tonight they're coming for it all.
They're not gonna stop.

168
00:08:48,828 --> 00:08:53,099
[Mauro] Oh, what a vicious right hand
by Trent Seven.

169
00:08:57,803 --> 00:09:00,873
The back breaker from Roderick Strong.

170
00:09:03,075 --> 00:09:06,879
Many pundits predicting that this
NXT Tag Team title match

171
00:09:06,946 --> 00:09:08,614
will steal the show.

172
00:09:08,681 --> 00:09:10,249
I think that could be said

173
00:09:10,316 --> 00:09:13,019
for every match on this incredible card.

174
00:09:14,854 --> 00:09:16,355
And there's the martial artist,

175
00:09:16,422 --> 00:09:19,191
the Muay Thai training
of Kyle O'Reilly on display

176
00:09:19,258 --> 00:09:21,594
with the Thai plumb, the knee strikes

177
00:09:21,661 --> 00:09:25,197
culminating with a roundhouse kick
to the neck of Trent Seven.

178
00:09:25,264 --> 00:09:27,967
[Percy] Something Mustache Mountain's
gotta watch out for,

179
00:09:28,034 --> 00:09:30,169
that striking ability of Kyle O'Reilly.

180
00:09:31,170 --> 00:09:33,506
[Mauro] What a cohesive tandem

181
00:09:33,573 --> 00:09:36,676
Strong and O'Reilly have become.

182
00:09:37,910 --> 00:09:41,280
Keeping Trent Seven
isolated in their corner.

183
00:09:41,347 --> 00:09:44,183
[Nigel] If they're gonna pick
a member of Mustache Mountain

184
00:09:44,250 --> 00:09:45,518
to keep in their corner,

185
00:09:45,584 --> 00:09:47,620
you'd probably have to choose Trent Seven,

186
00:09:47,687 --> 00:09:50,189
because let's talk about
the elephant in the room.

187
00:09:50,256 --> 00:09:52,091
That knee brace on the left knee.

188
00:09:54,527 --> 00:09:57,330
[Mauro] Diving knee drop
and the cover by O'Reilly.

189
00:09:58,064 --> 00:10:01,834
[Nigel] Of course, was the reason
why Tyler threw in the towel

190
00:10:01,901 --> 00:10:03,636
when they relinquished those titles.

191
00:10:05,605 --> 00:10:07,940
[Mauro] Bate didn't wanna risk
disqualification,

192
00:10:08,007 --> 00:10:10,710
wanted to live, to fight another day.

193
00:10:10,776 --> 00:10:11,777
And that day is now.

194
00:10:11,844 --> 00:10:13,012
It's Mustache Mountain

195
00:10:13,079 --> 00:10:16,616
here on the biggest stage
in Brooklyn at NXT TakeOver.

196
00:10:16,682 --> 00:10:20,086
Two-time NXT Tag Team champions

197
00:10:20,152 --> 00:10:21,754
and there's an opportunity.

198
00:10:21,821 --> 00:10:24,190
Tyler Bate with the run on Strong.

199
00:10:24,256 --> 00:10:26,192
-[Percy] Okay!
-[Mauro] Drop kick.

200
00:10:26,258 --> 00:10:29,996
[Nigel] Bate with a beautiful
gymnastic background, putting it to use.

201
00:10:30,062 --> 00:10:31,297
-[Nigel] Oh!
-[Percy] Wow.

202
00:10:32,898 --> 00:10:35,368
[Mauro] Oh, and a diving
European upper cut

203
00:10:35,434 --> 00:10:37,870
out of the corner by Bate on O'Reilly.

204
00:10:37,937 --> 00:10:40,573
[Percy] Mustache Mountain's
on fire tonight, I like it.

205
00:10:43,943 --> 00:10:46,679
[Mauro] Tag was made
and Roderick Strong's the legal man,

206
00:10:46,746 --> 00:10:47,980
but look at Tyler Bate.

207
00:10:50,616 --> 00:10:53,319
Tyler Bate's strength on display.

208
00:10:53,386 --> 00:10:54,987
-[Percy] Oh!
-[crowd cheering]

209
00:10:55,054 --> 00:10:56,856
[Percy] Are you kidding? Tag him out!

210
00:10:59,091 --> 00:11:01,727
[Mauro] And Strong putting the boots
to the face of Bate

211
00:11:01,794 --> 00:11:06,832
and now the sleeper being employed
by O'Reilly on Bate.

212
00:11:06,899 --> 00:11:08,467
[Percy] Bate still going for it.

213
00:11:08,534 --> 00:11:09,802
Tag him out. Look at him.

214
00:11:09,869 --> 00:11:12,538
[Mauro] Incredible show of strength

215
00:11:12,605 --> 00:11:14,507
by textbook Tyler Bate!

216
00:11:14,573 --> 00:11:18,678
[Percy] That's straight fortitude
and heart on display by Tyler Bate.

217
00:11:21,881 --> 00:11:25,351
[crowd cheering]

218
00:11:30,189 --> 00:11:31,757
[commentators] Oh!

219
00:11:31,824 --> 00:11:34,060
[Mauro] Strong explodes out of the corner

220
00:11:34,126 --> 00:11:37,930
with a lethal lariat
that stops Bate dead in his tracks.

221
00:11:37,997 --> 00:11:39,799
[Nigel] Not sure what Bate had in mind.

222
00:11:39,865 --> 00:11:42,201
It didn't matter because, boy,

223
00:11:42,268 --> 00:11:44,203
Roderick Strong cut him off at the pass.

224
00:11:44,770 --> 00:11:46,205
[Percy] Take a look at this.

225
00:11:46,272 --> 00:11:49,709
Tyler Bate going corner to corner
but Roderick Strong changed his mind.

226
00:11:49,775 --> 00:11:50,843
He had other plans.

227
00:11:54,914 --> 00:11:57,483
[Mauro] Kyle O'Reilly,
a Tag Team specialist,

228
00:11:57,550 --> 00:11:59,985
targeting the left arm of Tyler Bate,

229
00:12:00,052 --> 00:12:02,188
has him in a hammer lock.

230
00:12:02,988 --> 00:12:05,758
Clubbing forearm
and driving a knee into the rib cage

231
00:12:05,825 --> 00:12:08,327
and O'Reilly perpetual motion.

232
00:12:10,029 --> 00:12:12,498
And it's punishing motion, Nigel.

233
00:12:13,265 --> 00:12:16,035
[Nigel] Palm strikes now, knee on belly.

234
00:12:16,102 --> 00:12:17,636
Just controlling Bate.

235
00:12:19,805 --> 00:12:22,641
[Percy] It's all about
controlling the pace right here.

236
00:12:22,708 --> 00:12:25,044
[Nigel] Whoever wins the match tonight

237
00:12:25,111 --> 00:12:26,912
and leaves as the Tag Team champions

238
00:12:26,979 --> 00:12:29,415
somewhere the war raiders
are waiting in the wings.

239
00:12:32,752 --> 00:12:35,187
[Mauro] Oh, Strong looking
to light up Bate

240
00:12:35,254 --> 00:12:38,791
like the Perseid meteor shower and boy,

241
00:12:38,858 --> 00:12:41,227
these four meteors in their own rite

242
00:12:41,293 --> 00:12:45,464
and now the Undisputed Era
taking it to Tyler Bate.

243
00:12:45,531 --> 00:12:46,365
Tandem offense.

244
00:12:46,432 --> 00:12:48,434
Back press hooks both legs

245
00:12:48,501 --> 00:12:52,037
and yet Bate able to slip out
before the count of three.

246
00:12:52,104 --> 00:12:53,973
[Percy] Take a look at the quickness

247
00:12:54,039 --> 00:12:56,509
in which O'Reilly and Strong
are tagging in and out,

248
00:12:56,575 --> 00:12:57,810
keeping themselves fresh.

249
00:12:57,877 --> 00:13:00,846
[Mauro] Body scissors employed by O'Reilly

250
00:13:00,913 --> 00:13:03,482
looking to employ
the cross face, being blocked

251
00:13:04,083 --> 00:13:06,418
adroitly thus far by Bate.

252
00:13:09,355 --> 00:13:12,725
Tag is made and it's been
all Undisputed Era

253
00:13:13,259 --> 00:13:16,996
controlling this NXT Tag Team
Championship match.

254
00:13:17,062 --> 00:13:18,197
[fan] Come on, Tyler!

255
00:13:22,468 --> 00:13:24,303
[Nigel] Era certainly seem to have had

256
00:13:24,370 --> 00:13:26,238
the majority of the offense thus far.

257
00:13:26,305 --> 00:13:28,340
Look at that, brute strength from Strong.

258
00:13:28,407 --> 00:13:30,776
[Mauro] Roderick Strong
living up to his surname.

259
00:13:34,146 --> 00:13:37,016
[Nigel] The gory especial.
The gory stretch.

260
00:13:37,950 --> 00:13:40,753
[Percy] All that pressure
on the spine of Tyler Bate,

261
00:13:40,819 --> 00:13:43,022
this can't be good.
He's gonna be feeling this.

262
00:13:44,223 --> 00:13:47,526
[Mauro] Named after the legend,
luchador Gory Guerrero.

263
00:13:48,194 --> 00:13:50,496
[Nigel] He'll be looking for a submission

264
00:13:50,563 --> 00:13:53,999
and could also try
a pinfall attempt if he elects.

265
00:13:54,700 --> 00:13:56,602
Just making Bate think about it now.

266
00:13:58,604 --> 00:14:02,575
[Mauro] Tyler Bate
trying to manage to escape.

267
00:14:02,641 --> 00:14:04,810
Does so and sends Strong
into the turnbuckle

268
00:14:04,877 --> 00:14:07,880
but fortuitously, O'Reilly
able to make the tag.

269
00:14:10,049 --> 00:14:11,917
O'Reilly on Bate.

270
00:14:12,418 --> 00:14:13,552
[Nigel] Oh!

271
00:14:14,186 --> 00:14:18,290
[Mauro] And just kicks that left foot
out from under Tyler Bate

272
00:14:18,357 --> 00:14:19,558
as O'Reilly again…

273
00:14:19,625 --> 00:14:21,460
-[Percy] Oh.
-[Nigel] The knee hooked.

274
00:14:22,828 --> 00:14:25,397
[Mauro] The systematic breakdown
of Tyler Bate.

275
00:14:25,464 --> 00:14:27,800
[Nigel] Focusing on the cruciate
ligament of Bate.

276
00:14:27,867 --> 00:14:30,803
Bate actually tweaked that knee
earlier in the match

277
00:14:30,870 --> 00:14:32,671
and the Undisputed Era obviously--

278
00:14:32,738 --> 00:14:33,906
[Percy] Oh!

279
00:14:36,108 --> 00:14:37,576
[Nigel] …aware of that.

280
00:14:37,643 --> 00:14:40,946
And are now focusing
on the injured body part.

281
00:14:41,013 --> 00:14:43,616
[Mauro] Quick tags
made by O'Reilly and Strong

282
00:14:43,682 --> 00:14:48,020
as they continue to wear down Tyler Bate.

283
00:14:50,322 --> 00:14:51,624
Lightning quick tags

284
00:14:51,690 --> 00:14:54,827
from the defending NXT Tag Team champions.

285
00:14:55,761 --> 00:14:58,597
[Percy] Era trying to prove
exactly how dominant they are.

286
00:14:58,664 --> 00:15:00,900
They're trying to embarrass
Mustache Mountain.

287
00:15:00,966 --> 00:15:03,502
They feel like
their one title run was a fluke.

288
00:15:04,603 --> 00:15:06,605
-[Mauro] Undisputed Era--
-[Percy] Wow!

289
00:15:06,672 --> 00:15:09,475
[Mauro] Here in Brooklyn
as Tyler Bate launches Strong

290
00:15:09,541 --> 00:15:11,677
over the top rope to the outside.

291
00:15:11,744 --> 00:15:14,413
And that window of opportunity
to get to his corner

292
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,715
has been opened, but just a crack

293
00:15:16,782 --> 00:15:20,252
and Strong is still momentarily that is.

294
00:15:22,488 --> 00:15:25,925
-[Nigel] Bate getting closer.
-[Percy] He's taken a lot of punishment.

295
00:15:25,991 --> 00:15:28,894
He's inching his way over
to his partner and can't get there.

296
00:15:28,961 --> 00:15:31,664
[Mauro] Oh, Bate using O'Reilly's momentum

297
00:15:32,498 --> 00:15:35,401
to launch O'Reilly over the top rope.

298
00:15:35,467 --> 00:15:36,402
[Nigel] Surely…

299
00:15:38,871 --> 00:15:42,174
[Mauro] And Strong
desperately trying to keep Tyler Bate

300
00:15:42,241 --> 00:15:44,443
from making the tag to Trent Seven.

301
00:15:45,277 --> 00:15:46,578
Oh, but O'Reilly…

302
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,149
Wow, what a counter right hand
by Trent Seven.

303
00:15:50,215 --> 00:15:52,618
[Nigel] Seven is up. He has the tag rope.

304
00:15:52,685 --> 00:15:55,154
[Percy] He did it. Here we go.

305
00:15:55,220 --> 00:15:57,289
[Mauro] Here comes the Don Trent Seven.

306
00:16:01,827 --> 00:16:05,164
[Mauro] Towering back body drop
by Seven on Strong.

307
00:16:05,230 --> 00:16:06,799
[Percy] Took out Trent Seven.

308
00:16:06,865 --> 00:16:09,101
[Mauro] Suicida by Seven.

309
00:16:09,168 --> 00:16:11,537
[Percy] He's on a whole,
another level tonight.

310
00:16:11,603 --> 00:16:13,772
He didn't forget
Era tried to end his career.

311
00:16:13,839 --> 00:16:17,276
[Mauro] Mustache Mountain
wanna climb that mountain one more time

312
00:16:17,343 --> 00:16:19,445
in the NXT Tag Team division.

313
00:16:19,945 --> 00:16:23,115
-[Mauro] Corner clotheslines by Seven.
-[Percy] Oh!

314
00:16:24,383 --> 00:16:26,285
[Nigel] Great awareness from Seven.

315
00:16:26,352 --> 00:16:29,021
[Mauro] And the show of strength
by Trent Seven.

316
00:16:30,556 --> 00:16:33,125
-[Mauro] Drag and release suplex.
-[Percy] Oh, my God!

317
00:16:33,625 --> 00:16:36,061
[Mauro] And it's all Mustache Mountain.

318
00:16:37,896 --> 00:16:39,732
[Percy] Here we go!

319
00:16:39,798 --> 00:16:41,333
-[Mauro] Oh!
-[Percy] No!

320
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,869
[Mauro] Almost a three-count
there for Seven,

321
00:16:43,936 --> 00:16:46,138
Strong barely kicked out.

322
00:16:46,939 --> 00:16:50,709
[Nigel] What an incredible showing
from Trent Seven to be able to change

323
00:16:50,776 --> 00:16:54,079
the momentum of this match 180 degrees.

324
00:16:54,580 --> 00:16:57,049
[Percy] They may have not
gotten that pinfall there,

325
00:16:57,116 --> 00:16:59,618
but if Mustache Mountain
keeps this performance up,

326
00:16:59,685 --> 00:17:02,287
they will leave Brooklyn
the Tag Team champions.

327
00:17:02,354 --> 00:17:05,324
[Mauro] NXT universe
showing its approbation

328
00:17:05,391 --> 00:17:09,028
for these four sports
entertainment scientists.

329
00:17:09,094 --> 00:17:12,364
Counter left by Strong,
back elbow by Strong.

330
00:17:12,431 --> 00:17:13,766
Drops Seven to one knee.

331
00:17:13,832 --> 00:17:16,368
[Nigel] Seven was looking
for that Seven star lariat--

332
00:17:16,435 --> 00:17:17,970
[Mauro] Tag was made!

333
00:17:21,306 --> 00:17:24,276
Brain buster by Kyle O'Reilly on Seven.

334
00:17:24,343 --> 00:17:26,145
Will it be good enough for a three?

335
00:17:26,211 --> 00:17:27,179
[Percy] No!

336
00:17:30,682 --> 00:17:32,985
[Nigel] Seven is going to have
to dig deep now.

337
00:17:33,919 --> 00:17:37,056
[Mauro] And this opening match
at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn IV

338
00:17:37,122 --> 00:17:39,458
quickly becoming a war of attrition

339
00:17:39,525 --> 00:17:42,161
between two of the top
Tag Teams on the planet,

340
00:17:42,227 --> 00:17:47,499
vying for the top prize
in the Tag Team division in NXT.

341
00:17:47,566 --> 00:17:49,301
Flying forearm by O'Reilly.

342
00:17:49,368 --> 00:17:52,071
[fans chanting]

343
00:17:52,137 --> 00:17:53,939
[Percy] And stiff knees to the jaw,

344
00:17:54,006 --> 00:17:56,408
Trent Seven by both
Roderick Strong and O'Reilly.

345
00:17:58,477 --> 00:18:01,513
[Mauro] Olympic slam there
by Strong. The cover.

346
00:18:02,681 --> 00:18:05,317
And Seven just barely escapes.

347
00:18:05,384 --> 00:18:07,820
Both teams have had their moments, Nigel.

348
00:18:07,886 --> 00:18:12,091
[Nigel] We've seen here the tenacity
from both teams in this match.

349
00:18:12,157 --> 00:18:15,360
But right now it's Seven
who has to dig deep.

350
00:18:15,427 --> 00:18:17,930
That intestinal fortitude,
what does he have left?

351
00:18:17,996 --> 00:18:20,599
[Mauro] Oh, and the cabo kick
out of nowhere by Bate.

352
00:18:22,234 --> 00:18:24,803
Then he gets planted by Roderick Strong.

353
00:18:24,870 --> 00:18:28,707
Oh, and the spinning back fist
by Trent Seven wipes out O'Reilly.

354
00:18:30,609 --> 00:18:33,579
[Nigel] Turning it into the stronghold!

355
00:18:35,514 --> 00:18:38,383
Look at Strong trying to sit deeper.

356
00:18:38,450 --> 00:18:40,519
[Mauro] Doesn't have him
turned all the way

357
00:18:40,586 --> 00:18:44,590
as Seven is trying to desperately
stave off this potential submission.

358
00:18:44,656 --> 00:18:47,559
-[Nigel] Seven keeping the arm--
-[Percy] Look at O'Reilly.

359
00:18:47,626 --> 00:18:49,695
-[Nigel] Triangle as well from O'Reilly.

360
00:18:49,761 --> 00:18:51,230
[Mauro] Triangle attempt

361
00:18:51,296 --> 00:18:54,733
by the mixed martial arts
trained Kyle O'Reilly.

362
00:18:55,834 --> 00:18:57,436
[Percy] This could be over here.

363
00:18:58,237 --> 00:19:00,139
Look at the power of Bate. Hold on!

364
00:19:01,006 --> 00:19:02,441
[Mauro] Wow, with one arm.

365
00:19:02,508 --> 00:19:06,712
Tyler Bate sends O'Reilly
crashing into Strong.

366
00:19:06,778 --> 00:19:08,113
Are you kidding me?

367
00:19:09,248 --> 00:19:13,318
[crowd cheering]

368
00:19:15,921 --> 00:19:18,157
[Nigel] Look at the incredible strength

369
00:19:18,223 --> 00:19:20,225
and the ring awareness of Bate

370
00:19:20,292 --> 00:19:22,661
to break up that submission attempt.

371
00:19:23,195 --> 00:19:24,696
[Mauro] Stand up and cheer,

372
00:19:24,763 --> 00:19:28,000
these two preternaturally
talented Tag Teams

373
00:19:28,066 --> 00:19:29,735
putting it all on the line

374
00:19:29,801 --> 00:19:31,670
for the NXT Tag Team titles.

375
00:19:31,737 --> 00:19:33,739
Tyler Bate makes the tag.

376
00:19:36,108 --> 00:19:38,210
[Nigel] And now those strikes coming in.

377
00:19:38,844 --> 00:19:40,546
[fans chanting]

378
00:19:40,612 --> 00:19:41,580
[Percy] Oh!

379
00:19:43,882 --> 00:19:45,384
-[Mauro] Oh!
-[Percy] Hold on.

380
00:19:45,450 --> 00:19:50,188
[Mauro] Bate's powerful suplex
into Roderick Strong.

381
00:19:51,823 --> 00:19:53,358
[Percy] Hold on, he's not done.

382
00:19:53,425 --> 00:19:54,359
[Percy laughs]

383
00:19:55,727 --> 00:19:58,730
[Mauro] What a dive by Tyler Bate.

384
00:19:58,797 --> 00:20:00,432
-[Nigel laughs]
-[Percy] Oh, man!

385
00:20:00,499 --> 00:20:02,634
[Mauro] The Undisputed Era!

386
00:20:02,701 --> 00:20:03,936
[Nigel] This could be it.

387
00:20:04,703 --> 00:20:06,538
[Percy] This is what it's all about.

388
00:20:06,605 --> 00:20:08,006
[Mauro] …over the top rope.

389
00:20:08,073 --> 00:20:09,341
[Nigel] If he hits this--

390
00:20:09,408 --> 00:20:10,909
New champs!

391
00:20:10,976 --> 00:20:12,244
New champs!

392
00:20:12,811 --> 00:20:14,513
[Mauro] And Strong kicks out

393
00:20:16,014 --> 00:20:17,416
and the look of shock

394
00:20:17,482 --> 00:20:19,785
written all over the face of Tyler Bate.

395
00:20:21,887 --> 00:20:23,488
[Percy] Take a look at Tyler Bate

396
00:20:23,555 --> 00:20:26,091
taking to the skies,
the title is on the line.

397
00:20:26,158 --> 00:20:29,528
Doing whatever it takes
to wipe out Undisputed Era.

398
00:20:29,595 --> 00:20:32,231
[Nigel] It was Bate's ability here

399
00:20:32,297 --> 00:20:34,600
to turn things around
from a different angle

400
00:20:34,666 --> 00:20:36,969
and to maintain his advantage.

401
00:20:37,035 --> 00:20:39,571
Look here, using the ropes, slam,

402
00:20:39,638 --> 00:20:41,740
to get back on top with Roderick Strong.

403
00:20:41,807 --> 00:20:44,576
[Mauro] Inaugural WWE
United Kingdom champion,

404
00:20:44,643 --> 00:20:46,712
former NXT Tag Team champion.

405
00:20:46,778 --> 00:20:49,114
Tyler Bate has done it all

406
00:20:49,181 --> 00:20:51,717
and he's just barely in his twenties.

407
00:20:51,783 --> 00:20:55,721
A prodigy of sports entertainment
who is now on the verge

408
00:20:55,787 --> 00:20:58,790
of becoming a two-time
NXT Tag Team champion.

409
00:20:58,857 --> 00:21:00,525
Strong says, "not so fast".

410
00:21:00,592 --> 00:21:02,060
[woman in crowd shouting]

411
00:21:04,096 --> 00:21:06,665
[Mauro] Strong on the second turnbuckle.

412
00:21:06,732 --> 00:21:10,335
[Nigel] Roderick Strong aggressively
trying to yank Bate off the top.

413
00:21:11,169 --> 00:21:13,705
[Mauro] But it's Bate
with a serious of back elbows

414
00:21:13,772 --> 00:21:16,141
that sends Strong crashing to the canvas.

415
00:21:16,208 --> 00:21:18,377
-[Percy] No!
-[Mauro] And there's Kyle O'Reilly.

416
00:21:19,278 --> 00:21:22,047
[Nigel] The left shin
or perhaps it was the knee,

417
00:21:22,114 --> 00:21:23,715
tweaked the knee again.

418
00:21:23,782 --> 00:21:25,684
That left knee was injured before.

419
00:21:25,751 --> 00:21:27,152
It certainly is injured now.

420
00:21:28,854 --> 00:21:32,391
[Mauro] And the injury exacerbated
by the attack of Kyle O'Reilly now

421
00:21:32,457 --> 00:21:35,193
and Roderick Strong
and O'Reilly wipes out Trent Seven.

422
00:21:36,561 --> 00:21:38,297
Right hand by Bate!

423
00:21:38,363 --> 00:21:40,399
[Percy] He's got a lot of fight left--

424
00:21:40,465 --> 00:21:44,369
The roll by O'Reilly
into that inside heel hook.

425
00:21:45,437 --> 00:21:48,373
[Nigel] The torque
on that cruciate ligament of the left knee

426
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,309
has got to be agonizing.

427
00:21:50,375 --> 00:21:54,446
[Mauro] And it's that injured
left leg of Tyler Bate.

428
00:21:57,416 --> 00:22:00,952
[Mauro] Trent Seven desperately
wants to get into this matchup.

429
00:22:05,257 --> 00:22:07,159
Remember, the Undisputed Era

430
00:22:08,393 --> 00:22:09,795
battered and bruised.

431
00:22:09,861 --> 00:22:12,731
-[Nigel] Just look at--
-[Mauro] The injured leg of Seven.

432
00:22:13,699 --> 00:22:16,568
[Nigel] It's the injured leg of Bate
we're looking at now.

433
00:22:17,202 --> 00:22:19,137
The torque, just look at the ankle

434
00:22:19,204 --> 00:22:21,006
and the angle of that ankle.

435
00:22:21,073 --> 00:22:23,008
[Percy] Look at this. Roderick Strong.

436
00:22:23,075 --> 00:22:25,143
[Mauro] The wily veteran Roderick Strong

437
00:22:25,210 --> 00:22:28,146
taking advantage of the moment
afforded to him

438
00:22:28,980 --> 00:22:30,415
dragging O'Reilly and Bate

439
00:22:30,482 --> 00:22:32,451
closer to the Undisputed Era's corner.

440
00:22:32,517 --> 00:22:35,153
And Seven has the towel.

441
00:22:35,220 --> 00:22:36,521
[Mauro] No, wait a minute.

442
00:22:36,588 --> 00:22:38,457
-[Percy] No.
-[Nigel] Wait, not again.

443
00:22:38,523 --> 00:22:41,026
[Mauro] Remember we saw Tyler Bate

444
00:22:41,693 --> 00:22:44,963
throw the towel in to save Trent Seven.

445
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:48,533
Are we going to see
a case of dejà vu here in Brooklyn?

446
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,169
[Percy] Seven can't believe
this is happening again.

447
00:22:51,236 --> 00:22:53,438
[Mauro] He threw the towel into the crowd.

448
00:22:54,573 --> 00:22:56,641
Imploring his partner to keep fighting.

449
00:22:56,708 --> 00:22:57,776
[Percy] Oh!

450
00:23:00,345 --> 00:23:01,313
[Mauro] But Bate,

451
00:23:02,147 --> 00:23:04,449
Bate willing himself to his corner.

452
00:23:04,516 --> 00:23:05,684
[Percy] He's digging.

453
00:23:05,751 --> 00:23:09,087
[Mauro] The intestinal fortitude
of Tyler Bate on display.

454
00:23:10,422 --> 00:23:13,225
Showcasing his mental, his drive,

455
00:23:13,291 --> 00:23:16,094
his determination to stay alive.

456
00:23:17,662 --> 00:23:18,864
[Percy] He did it!

457
00:23:18,930 --> 00:23:20,732
[Mauro] The tag has been made.

458
00:23:24,603 --> 00:23:26,037
[commentators] Oh!

459
00:23:26,104 --> 00:23:28,573
[Nigel] These strikes with everything.

460
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,075
Hold on!

461
00:23:30,142 --> 00:23:32,043
[Mauro] The lariat by Seven!

462
00:23:32,611 --> 00:23:35,514
Will we have a new NXT Tag Team champions?

463
00:23:36,548 --> 00:23:37,416
Almost!

464
00:23:39,217 --> 00:23:41,186
[Nigel] There's the tag to Bate.

465
00:23:41,253 --> 00:23:43,488
Mustache Mountain, keep moving!

466
00:23:43,555 --> 00:23:45,157
[Percy] That's the type of belief

467
00:23:45,223 --> 00:23:47,659
that Trent Seven has
in his partner Tyler Bate.

468
00:23:48,493 --> 00:23:50,996
[Mauro] …Roderick Strong
scaling the turnbuckles.

469
00:23:52,297 --> 00:23:53,265
[Nigel] Here it is!

470
00:23:53,331 --> 00:23:56,067
[Mauro] Tyler Bate on the top turnbuckle.

471
00:23:56,134 --> 00:23:57,402
[Nigel] Rolling hammer!

472
00:23:58,837 --> 00:24:02,040
[Mauro] Combination.
Knee drop and the hammer.

473
00:24:02,641 --> 00:24:04,209
And O'Reilly kicks out.

474
00:24:04,276 --> 00:24:08,046
O'Reilly somehow was able to kick out.

475
00:24:14,486 --> 00:24:17,856
[fans chanting]

476
00:24:22,127 --> 00:24:23,795
[Nigel] How on Earth?

477
00:24:25,530 --> 00:24:28,266
[Mauro] Barclays Center
erupting like a volcano.

478
00:24:28,333 --> 00:24:31,269
Mustache Mountain was one countaway

479
00:24:31,336 --> 00:24:33,905
from joining the Undisputed Era

480
00:24:33,972 --> 00:24:37,142
and the revival as two-time
NXT Tag Team champs.

481
00:24:37,209 --> 00:24:39,277
[Nigel] Bate can barely stand.

482
00:24:39,911 --> 00:24:43,248
[Mauro] Trent Seven,
full nelson on O'Reilly

483
00:24:45,050 --> 00:24:46,985
and Bate having issues.

484
00:24:47,052 --> 00:24:49,988
And he gets clipped
with that jumping knee strike

485
00:24:50,055 --> 00:24:52,524
from Roderick Strong
and the spinning back kick.

486
00:24:52,591 --> 00:24:54,926
Chop block by O'Reilly on Seven.

487
00:24:54,993 --> 00:24:56,094
[Percy] Oh, my!

488
00:24:56,161 --> 00:24:57,996
-[Mauro] No!
-[Percy] No!

489
00:24:58,063 --> 00:24:59,698
[crowd counting]

490
00:25:00,332 --> 00:25:03,668
[Mauro] Undisputed Era retain
the Tag Team titles!

491
00:25:04,269 --> 00:25:06,705
[Kayla] Your winners and still

492
00:25:06,771 --> 00:25:09,608
NXT Tag Team champions,

493
00:25:09,674 --> 00:25:13,411
Kyle O'Reilly and Roderick Strong!

494
00:25:13,478 --> 00:25:16,481
[Mauro] It was a raucous rubber match,

495
00:25:16,548 --> 00:25:19,150
both teams on the verge of victory,

496
00:25:19,217 --> 00:25:20,352
but in the end,

497
00:25:20,418 --> 00:25:23,555
Roderick Strong and Kyle O'Reilly

498
00:25:23,622 --> 00:25:27,993
defend the gold for the Undisputed Era!

499
00:25:28,827 --> 00:25:30,795
[Nigel] What an incredible matchup

500
00:25:30,862 --> 00:25:32,597
between these two teams.

501
00:25:32,664 --> 00:25:34,533
We are just getting started.

502
00:25:35,667 --> 00:25:37,836
[Mauro] A Tag Team trilogy

503
00:25:37,903 --> 00:25:41,673
that will go down
in the annuls of NXT history.

504
00:25:43,008 --> 00:25:45,610
[Nigel] Mustache Mountain
didn't get the victory here.

505
00:25:45,677 --> 00:25:47,679
They won't be leaving as the champions.

506
00:25:47,746 --> 00:25:51,650
But one thing they can do
is leave with their head held high.

507
00:25:51,716 --> 00:25:54,719
There is no way
it was a fluke the first time.

508
00:25:54,786 --> 00:25:57,989
They proved they are worthy
of being champions,

509
00:25:58,056 --> 00:26:00,058
even if tonight they don't.

510
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,695
[Percy] It was a heck
of a back and forth battle

511
00:26:03,762 --> 00:26:07,299
between two great Tag Teams right here.

512
00:26:07,365 --> 00:26:09,067
But it was just too much.

513
00:26:09,134 --> 00:26:11,603
I still can't understand how in the world

514
00:26:11,670 --> 00:26:15,106
Kyle O'Reilly was able
to kick out of that maneuver.

515
00:26:16,207 --> 00:26:17,509
[Nigel] The Undisputed Era

516
00:26:17,576 --> 00:26:20,445
showing why they are
the Tag Team champions.

517
00:26:20,512 --> 00:26:22,280
You see the way Roderick Strong

518
00:26:22,347 --> 00:26:24,983
waited for the right moment
to take the opportunity.

519
00:26:25,784 --> 00:26:27,285
And then followed up here.

520
00:26:28,687 --> 00:26:31,856
High-low, double your money.

521
00:26:31,923 --> 00:26:34,559
It was enough to secure the victory

Brock Lesnar.

560
00:28:50,428 --> 00:28:53,665
Brock is going to put down the Big Dog

561
00:28:53,732 --> 00:28:56,568
and go on to UFC

562
00:28:56,634 --> 00:29:00,271
and become a two-sport champion.

of who attacked the Undisputed Era,

572

is who attacked Aleister Black.

He was supposed to be
in our main event tonight

in a triple threat match
for the NXT Championship.

But a mystery assailant

00:36:30,788 --> 00:36:32,323
has found the Velveteen Dream

700
00:36:32,390 --> 00:36:34,825
to be as annoying as auto correct.

701
00:36:35,459 --> 00:36:39,230
The top one percenters
spells victory EC3, Nigel.

702
00:36:39,297 --> 00:36:40,831
[Nigel] But ultimately, fellows,

703
00:36:40,898 --> 00:36:44,969
both these superstars
are cut from the same cloth.

704
00:36:45,636 --> 00:36:47,605
They're cocky, they're arrogant.

705
00:36:47,672 --> 00:36:49,340
They're spotlight hogs.

706
00:36:49,407 --> 00:36:51,876
Dream if you will is younger.

707
00:36:51,943 --> 00:36:55,413
EC3 has more experience.

708
00:36:55,479 --> 00:36:59,383
But ultimately, only one man
will leave here

709
00:36:59,450 --> 00:37:01,552
with their name top billing.

710
00:37:01,619 --> 00:37:05,289
[Mauro] Two superstars
whose egos are imax sized

711
00:37:05,356 --> 00:37:09,327
but it's more than just pride.

712
00:37:09,393 --> 00:37:14,498
Both of them capable of becoming
champion here in NXT

713
00:37:14,565 --> 00:37:16,734
and once the bell rings,

714
00:37:16,801 --> 00:37:20,004
the ego, the pride
has to be put to the side,

715
00:37:20,071 --> 00:37:22,807
although the gamesmanship, well,

716
00:37:22,873 --> 00:37:25,810
it always comes
with the Velveteen Dream experience.

717
00:37:25,876 --> 00:37:28,145
[crowd cheering]

718
00:37:28,212 --> 00:37:29,680
-[Percy] Whoa!
-[Nigel] Oh!

719
00:37:30,181 --> 00:37:32,583
[Mauro] As long as Dream
doesn't start flossing,

720
00:37:32,650 --> 00:37:36,487
we'll be okay as EC3 will have
none of the mind games.

721
00:37:36,554 --> 00:37:40,291
In fact, EC3 got into the mind
of the Velveteen Dream

722
00:37:40,358 --> 00:37:42,627
at their unconventional summit.

723
00:37:42,693 --> 00:37:44,061
[bell ringing]

724
00:37:44,128 --> 00:37:47,164
[Mauro] Remember, he threw Velveteen Dream

725
00:37:47,231 --> 00:37:49,400
into the pool.

726
00:37:49,467 --> 00:37:50,768
And both of these guys

727
00:37:50,835 --> 00:37:52,870
in the deep end of the NXT talent pool

728
00:37:52,937 --> 00:37:54,672
ready to showcase their wares.

729
00:37:56,140 --> 00:37:58,843
[fans chanting]

730
00:38:01,545 --> 00:38:03,681
[Mauro] And it's on.
Collar and elbow tie-up.

731
00:38:05,850 --> 00:38:08,286
What do you look for
early in this matchup, Nigel?

732
00:38:08,352 --> 00:38:10,187
[Nigel] Strength advantage from EC3.

733
00:38:10,688 --> 00:38:13,591
Certainly one of the most powerful
superstars on the brand.

734
00:38:13,658 --> 00:38:14,992
Again we're seeing it there.

735
00:38:15,059 --> 00:38:17,695
[Percy] He's tossing around
the Velveteen Dream.

736
00:38:17,762 --> 00:38:20,197
[Nigel] Velveteen Dream
is not a small individual.

737
00:38:20,264 --> 00:38:22,700
Six foot four, 240 pounds.

738
00:38:23,701 --> 00:38:25,903
To move like that, that's impressive.

739
00:38:25,970 --> 00:38:28,172
[Percy] Velveteen Dream
has power of his own,

740
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,274
but he normally utilizes agility.

741
00:38:30,908 --> 00:38:31,976
[Mauro] EC3 claims

742
00:38:32,043 --> 00:38:34,378
he has more money than Bruce Wayne,

743
00:38:34,445 --> 00:38:35,780
while we can't confirm that,

744
00:38:35,846 --> 00:38:37,114
his opponents can confirm

745
00:38:37,181 --> 00:38:40,384
that he hits as hard as
John Carlos Stanton with the Batman,

746
00:38:40,451 --> 00:38:42,153
although it's Velveteen Dream now

747
00:38:42,219 --> 00:38:43,788
keeping that power at bay.

748
00:38:44,422 --> 00:38:46,524
Neutralizing the left arm of EC3.

749
00:38:46,590 --> 00:38:47,725
[Percy] Oh!

750
00:38:47,792 --> 00:38:49,160
[Mauro] Good reversal by…

751
00:38:50,361 --> 00:38:54,732
the man who wants to rebrand
the black and yellow brand NX3.

752
00:38:56,901 --> 00:39:00,104
[Nigel] Now controlling the taller man.

753
00:39:00,171 --> 00:39:01,605
Oh, great extension.

754
00:39:01,672 --> 00:39:04,308
[Mauro] There's a show
of that strength we talk about.

755
00:39:05,876 --> 00:39:07,311
[Percy] EC3 taking his time.

756
00:39:07,378 --> 00:39:10,648
He said he'll play the games
of Velveteen Dream and he'll win.

757
00:39:10,715 --> 00:39:13,918
And he'll win victory
after victory after victory.

758
00:39:13,984 --> 00:39:17,621
[Mauro] Wow, EC3 manhandling
Velveteen Dream in the early going.

759
00:39:17,688 --> 00:39:21,425
Top wrist lock being employed by EC3.

760
00:39:26,464 --> 00:39:29,100
The animosity between these two superstars

761
00:39:29,166 --> 00:39:32,470
began at the NXT U.K.
Championship special in London.

762
00:39:33,003 --> 00:39:36,006
Remember when Velveteen Dream
abandoned EC3 midway

763
00:39:36,073 --> 00:39:37,708
through their dream Tag Team match

764
00:39:37,775 --> 00:39:40,311
against Aleister Black and Ricochet.

765
00:39:41,178 --> 00:39:44,648
[Nigel] It's clear that Velveteen Dream
doesn't play well with others.

766
00:39:47,284 --> 00:39:50,087
He's an individual
both inside and outside the ring.

767
00:39:50,154 --> 00:39:51,021
Oh!

768
00:39:51,088 --> 00:39:55,693
[Mauro] EC3 kicking Velveteen Dream

769
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,361
into that stratosphere.

770
00:39:57,428 --> 00:39:58,562
[Percy] Oh!

771
00:39:59,130 --> 00:40:03,334
[Mauro] EC3 just got crotched

772
00:40:03,401 --> 00:40:04,635
on that top rope.

773
00:40:05,436 --> 00:40:09,540
And EC3 now ensuring more problems

774
00:40:09,607 --> 00:40:11,275
in the garden of good and evil.

775
00:40:13,277 --> 00:40:15,946
Oh! And a right hand by EC3,

776
00:40:16,013 --> 00:40:19,283
and it's all EC3 here in the early going.

777
00:40:20,684 --> 00:40:21,852
[Nigel] And another.

778
00:40:24,622 --> 00:40:27,158
Whatever the strategy Velveteen Dream

779
00:40:27,224 --> 00:40:30,194
had going into this match,
it clearly wasn't effective.

780
00:40:32,129 --> 00:40:35,099
[Mauro] Velveteen Dream now
with the sunset flip attempt

781
00:40:35,166 --> 00:40:36,600
from the apron.

782
00:40:37,168 --> 00:40:39,203
-[Mauro] And now EC3--
-[Percy] Whoa!

783
00:40:39,270 --> 00:40:40,838
[Mauro] Busting out a few moves.

784
00:40:40,905 --> 00:40:42,440
[Percy] Mocking Velveteen.

785
00:40:49,547 --> 00:40:51,215
[Mauro] Dream comes off the ropes.

786
00:40:53,584 --> 00:40:58,322
Oh, and EC3 sends Dream
crashing to the canvas.

787
00:40:58,389 --> 00:41:01,258
[Nigel] EC3 had Velveteen Dream
up for the one-percenter.

788
00:41:01,759 --> 00:41:04,929
[Mauro] Oh, and EC3 telegraphs
the back body drop.

789
00:41:04,995 --> 00:41:07,031
Eats a Velveteen Dream boot.

790
00:41:07,097 --> 00:41:10,100
Scoop and a slam by EC3.

791
00:41:11,135 --> 00:41:12,269
Managing to stay one--

792
00:41:12,336 --> 00:41:13,571
Say my name!

793
00:41:13,637 --> 00:41:15,873
EC3!

794
00:41:16,607 --> 00:41:18,642
[Mauro] That is your name, EC3.

795
00:41:18,709 --> 00:41:20,711
He calls it the formula for success.

796
00:41:20,778 --> 00:41:24,248
And he's been successful thus far
against the Velveteen Dream.

797
00:41:24,315 --> 00:41:25,249
[Percy] Oh!

798
00:41:25,316 --> 00:41:27,885
[Mauro] Cactus clothesline
over the top rope.

799
00:41:28,419 --> 00:41:31,856
[Percy] It's all about money with EC3
and raising his stock here tonight

800
00:41:31,922 --> 00:41:34,291
if he gets this win
over the Velveteen Dream.

801
00:41:34,358 --> 00:41:37,294
[Mauro] Cactus Jack would be proud
of that EC3 maneuver

802
00:41:37,361 --> 00:41:41,432
as EC3 continues to toy
with Velveteen Dream.

803
00:41:41,499 --> 00:41:42,800
Are you surprised, Nigel?

804
00:41:42,867 --> 00:41:44,034
[Nigel] Absolutely not.

805
00:41:44,101 --> 00:41:46,337
I knew both these men
had it in for each other,

806
00:41:46,403 --> 00:41:48,772
as things looking
to pick up some pace here.

807
00:41:48,839 --> 00:41:50,074
[Mauro] Reversal here.

808
00:41:50,574 --> 00:41:54,111
Oh, twisted DDT face first,

809
00:41:54,178 --> 00:41:56,347
EC3 crashes on the ramp!

810
00:41:57,314 --> 00:41:59,750
[Nigel] Did you hear the sound of that?

811
00:41:59,817 --> 00:42:00,851
[Mauro] My God!

812
00:42:02,853 --> 00:42:04,588
[Percy] This is where the spotlight

813
00:42:04,655 --> 00:42:06,190
just shifted right here.

814
00:42:06,257 --> 00:42:07,658
Velveteen Dream finding a way

815
00:42:07,725 --> 00:42:09,827
to turn things around to his advantage.

816
00:42:10,895 --> 00:42:13,330
[Nigel] Twisting DDT on there.

817
00:42:14,398 --> 00:42:17,434
[Mauro] Velveteen Dream
with great ring presence,

818
00:42:17,501 --> 00:42:19,370
able to break the referee's count.

819
00:42:19,436 --> 00:42:23,073
Oh, and he smashes EC3's shoulder first

820
00:42:23,140 --> 00:42:24,542
into the ring post.

821
00:42:25,342 --> 00:42:28,779
[Nigel] How is EC3 able to continue?

822
00:42:28,846 --> 00:42:31,849
[Mauro] Velveteen Dream
turning the tables with a turning,

823
00:42:31,916 --> 00:42:34,018
twisting DDT on the ramp.

824
00:42:34,084 --> 00:42:36,287
[Nigel] That would have beaten
any regular man.

825
00:42:36,353 --> 00:42:37,655
[Mauro] Cover by the dream.

826
00:42:37,721 --> 00:42:39,590
And how did EC3 kick out?

827
00:42:40,357 --> 00:42:42,493
I mean, it's incredible

828
00:42:43,460 --> 00:42:46,130
how much punishment, especially I mean,

829
00:42:46,196 --> 00:42:49,934
Nigel, you've been in sports
entertainment for many years.

830
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,369
You don't come back from a DDT like that.

831
00:42:52,436 --> 00:42:53,904
[Nigel] In the middle now.

832
00:42:54,605 --> 00:42:57,374
Yeah, it's the incredible
muscularity, Mauro,

833
00:42:57,441 --> 00:42:59,410
perhaps of EC3's neck,

834
00:42:59,476 --> 00:43:02,680
that protected against the impact
from that DDT.

835
00:43:02,746 --> 00:43:04,114
[Mauro] And Velveteen Dream

836
00:43:04,181 --> 00:43:07,217
hanging EC3 out to dry on the top rope.

837
00:43:09,353 --> 00:43:11,088
[Percy] Money can't save you now.

838
00:43:11,155 --> 00:43:12,189
This is a fistfight.

839
00:43:13,924 --> 00:43:17,161
[Nigel] Things have got personal now
between these two superstars.

840
00:43:18,729 --> 00:43:23,033
Turning it up a notch
with that DDT on the outside.

841
00:43:29,707 --> 00:43:32,343
[Mauro] And Velveteen Dream now has EC3--

842
00:43:32,409 --> 00:43:33,243
[Percy] Oh, man.

843
00:43:33,310 --> 00:43:35,813
[Mauro] And he just snaps his neck
off the top rope.

844
00:43:41,251 --> 00:43:43,454
[Nigel] How confident Velveteen Dream is,

845
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:47,024
just methodically dragging EC3.

846
00:43:47,091 --> 00:43:50,094
[Mauro] The neck breaker
into the lateral press, hooks the leg.

847
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:51,462
EC3 kicks out.

848
00:43:51,528 --> 00:43:54,331
Two of the up-and-coming NXT superstars

849
00:43:55,499 --> 00:43:58,702
wanting to continue their climb

850
00:43:58,769 --> 00:44:01,071
here on NXT's grandest stage

851
00:44:01,138 --> 00:44:03,307
at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn IV.

852
00:44:03,374 --> 00:44:05,843
And Velveteen Dream beginning to work

853
00:44:05,909 --> 00:44:07,978
the injured neck of EC3.

854
00:44:08,045 --> 00:44:10,180
[Nigel] Applying pressure
to the injured neck

855
00:44:10,247 --> 00:44:11,815
as you mentioned, Mauro.

856
00:44:11,882 --> 00:44:13,350
A version of a neck crank.

857
00:44:14,918 --> 00:44:15,753
Oh!

858
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,356
[Mauro] Forearm to the spine
by Velveteen Dream

859
00:44:19,423 --> 00:44:21,925
and EC3 is rattled, Percy.

860
00:44:21,992 --> 00:44:23,293
[Percy] Oh, man, EC3--

861
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:24,928
Velveteen Dream, check him out.

862
00:44:24,995 --> 00:44:26,563
[Mauro] Rude awakening, perhaps?

863
00:44:26,630 --> 00:44:28,032
[Nigel] But he took too long.

864
00:44:28,098 --> 00:44:30,534
[Percy] Dream thinking about
going back to the neck.

865
00:44:30,601 --> 00:44:31,468
A smart move.

866
00:44:31,535 --> 00:44:34,505
[Mauro] Here's that power advantage
of EC3 on display.

867
00:44:35,506 --> 00:44:37,975
[Nigel] Physique of EC3 like a Greek God.

868
00:44:38,042 --> 00:44:39,343
[Mauro] Well countered.

869
00:44:39,410 --> 00:44:40,477
And there it is!

870
00:44:41,311 --> 00:44:42,579
Another neck breaker

871
00:44:42,646 --> 00:44:45,916
as Velveteen Dream continues to attack

872
00:44:45,983 --> 00:44:48,185
the injured part of EC3's anatomy

873
00:44:48,252 --> 00:44:49,520
and almost put him away.

874
00:44:49,586 --> 00:44:52,389
[Nigel] That lackadaisical cocky cover.

875
00:44:52,456 --> 00:44:54,558
I think perhaps Dream believes

876
00:44:54,625 --> 00:44:58,328
he could afford to have
a little bit of fun at EC3's expense.

877
00:44:58,395 --> 00:44:59,997
I would disagree with that.

878
00:45:01,665 --> 00:45:03,600
[Mauro] The mysterious,

879
00:45:03,667 --> 00:45:06,770
intoxicating presence of Velveteen Dream.

880
00:45:08,906 --> 00:45:11,508
[Percy] One thing
you don't want to do is toy with EC3.

881
00:45:11,575 --> 00:45:13,977
If you got him down,
you better try to finish him.

882
00:45:14,044 --> 00:45:15,646
This is a man that can come back.

883
00:45:16,714 --> 00:45:18,882
[Mauro] And Velveteen Dream slamming EC3

884
00:45:18,949 --> 00:45:20,551
into our broadcast location,

885
00:45:21,185 --> 00:45:25,589
repeatedly smashing
EC3's forehead into our table.

886
00:45:29,526 --> 00:45:30,527
Oh!

887
00:45:30,594 --> 00:45:32,396
Velveteen Dream telling EC3,

888
00:45:32,463 --> 00:45:34,598
"you want to embarrass the Dream",

889
00:45:34,665 --> 00:45:37,367
remember at their unconventional summit,

890
00:45:38,001 --> 00:45:41,405
it was EC3 that threw
Velveteen Dream into the drink.

891
00:45:41,472 --> 00:45:46,043
Well, Velveteen Dream
has just thrown a drink into EC3's face.

892
00:45:47,044 --> 00:45:51,048
Ignominiously, EC3 though back
on his feet.

893
00:45:51,548 --> 00:45:52,516
[commentators] Oh!

894
00:45:53,217 --> 00:45:55,152
[Mauro] And again Velveteen Dream

895
00:45:55,219 --> 00:45:59,323
able to come up with a crucial counter.

896
00:45:59,389 --> 00:46:01,358
[Nigel] That just ticked off EC3.

897
00:46:02,025 --> 00:46:03,761
Firing back in this match.

898
00:46:04,828 --> 00:46:07,831
[Percy] That's exactly
what I was referring to.

899
00:46:07,898 --> 00:46:09,833
You can't waste time with EC3,

900
00:46:09,900 --> 00:46:11,535
this is a tough, strong man.

901
00:46:11,602 --> 00:46:13,804
He's had wars in the ring before.

902
00:46:13,871 --> 00:46:15,172
He knows how to come back.

903
00:46:19,476 --> 00:46:21,979
[Mauro] EC3 blocks
the right hand from the Dream.

904
00:46:22,045 --> 00:46:24,581
Does so again, uncorks a couple
of rights of his own.

905
00:46:24,648 --> 00:46:26,183
But then Dream, oh,

906
00:46:26,250 --> 00:46:28,652
but it's EC3's momentum out of the corner,

907
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:30,420
exploding with a clothesline.

908
00:46:30,988 --> 00:46:31,889
[Percy] Oh!

909
00:46:31,955 --> 00:46:33,123
Top one percent!

910
00:46:33,190 --> 00:46:34,591
[Mauro] The top one percent

911
00:46:34,658 --> 00:46:37,928
turning Velveteen Dream
inside-out with that right hand.

912
00:46:41,865 --> 00:46:45,002
Stinger splash in the corner by EC3.

913
00:46:46,103 --> 00:46:47,437
Rolling neck snap by--

914
00:46:47,504 --> 00:46:48,872
Oh!

915
00:46:48,939 --> 00:46:49,940
[Mauro] …EC3.

916
00:46:50,007 --> 00:46:51,275
[crowd cheering]

917
00:46:51,341 --> 00:46:53,610
[Nigel] Now the top one percenters

918
00:46:53,677 --> 00:46:55,312
has strung a few moves together.

919
00:46:55,979 --> 00:46:57,981
[Mauro] And EC3 showing Velveteen Dream

920
00:46:58,048 --> 00:47:00,751
he's not the only one
with neck breakers in his play book

921
00:47:00,817 --> 00:47:02,619
and looking for the one percenter.

922
00:47:02,686 --> 00:47:03,520
[Percy] Hold on!

923
00:47:03,587 --> 00:47:06,390
[Mauro] Roll-up by Velveteen Dream
for a two-count.

924
00:47:08,425 --> 00:47:10,794
Velveteen Dream
missing with the superkick.

925
00:47:10,861 --> 00:47:11,695
Kicked by EC3.

926
00:47:13,430 --> 00:47:16,400
Again EC3 blocks the kick
from Velveteen Dream.

927
00:47:16,466 --> 00:47:17,835
-[Percy] Oh!
-[crowd] Oh!

928
00:47:17,901 --> 00:47:20,237
[Nigel] Face first into the mat.
This could be it.

929
00:47:20,304 --> 00:47:22,839
-[Percy] Hold on.
-[Mauro] Back press, hooks the leg.

930
00:47:22,906 --> 00:47:24,942
And somehow Velveteen Dream

931
00:47:25,008 --> 00:47:27,477
able to escape the pinfall attempt.

932
00:47:28,779 --> 00:47:30,380
[Percy] EC3 finding a way to stay

933
00:47:30,447 --> 00:47:33,183
just one step ahead of Velveteen Dream.

934
00:47:33,250 --> 00:47:34,451
Take a look right here.

935
00:47:36,186 --> 00:47:37,988
Nice counter move by EC3,

936
00:47:38,055 --> 00:47:40,757
planting Velveteen Dream into the mat.

937
00:47:45,128 --> 00:47:46,463
[Mauro] And Velveteen Dream

938
00:47:46,530 --> 00:47:48,632
again unable to kick EC3,

939
00:47:48,699 --> 00:47:51,068
but manages to paintbrush him

940
00:47:51,134 --> 00:47:53,837
and that will draw the ire of EC3.

941
00:47:55,405 --> 00:47:57,407
[Nigel] Now the fury of EC3

942
00:47:58,008 --> 00:47:59,877
unloading on the Dream.

943
00:48:01,845 --> 00:48:04,882
[Mauro] EC3 emptying
his fusillade of strikes.

944
00:48:07,718 --> 00:48:11,188
[Percy] He's unloading, but can he
put away the Velveteen Dream tonight?

945
00:48:11,888 --> 00:48:15,626
[Mauro] And Velveteen Dream
attacking the throat of EC3.

946
00:48:15,692 --> 00:48:17,628
[crowd cheering]

947
00:48:17,694 --> 00:48:21,331
[Mauro] Velveteen Dream
scaling the turnbuckle.

948
00:48:22,499 --> 00:48:24,368
EC3 back on his feet.

949
00:48:24,434 --> 00:48:26,169
[Nigel] Took way too many.

950
00:48:26,236 --> 00:48:30,040
[Mauro] And EC3 launches
Velveteen Dream off the turnbuckle.

951
00:48:30,107 --> 00:48:32,276
[Nigel] You see EC3 grabbing at his neck.

952
00:48:34,611 --> 00:48:35,512
This is unusual.

953
00:48:35,579 --> 00:48:38,582
We don't see EC3
go to the top rope very often.

954
00:48:39,182 --> 00:48:40,684
There could be a reason for it.

955
00:48:40,751 --> 00:48:43,253
[Mauro] The powerhouse off
the top turnbuckle.

956
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:45,522
Diving on the reversal.

957
00:48:45,589 --> 00:48:49,126
Handful of trunks and Velveteen Dream
still comes up with the two-count.

958
00:48:49,192 --> 00:48:52,863
[Nigel] EC3 just didn't get
enough height on that cross body.

959
00:48:52,930 --> 00:48:56,700
[Mauro] What a slap
across the face by EC3.

960
00:48:56,767 --> 00:48:58,402
Powerbomb!

961
00:49:00,003 --> 00:49:02,973
And Velveteen Dream
feeling the full effects

962
00:49:03,607 --> 00:49:06,109
as he gets his spine realigned.

963
00:49:06,176 --> 00:49:08,045
Ahhh!

964
00:49:08,111 --> 00:49:12,416
[Mauro] By the man who calls himself
the baddest dude ever.

965
00:49:12,482 --> 00:49:13,650
Look at the power.

966
00:49:13,717 --> 00:49:15,719
EC3 sit-down powerbomb.

967
00:49:15,786 --> 00:49:18,622
Shoulders down
and Velveteen Dream escapes.

968
00:49:19,256 --> 00:49:21,058
[Nigel] But only barely.

969
00:49:23,260 --> 00:49:26,930
[Percy] Velveteen Dream is not trying
to give in to EC3 here tonight.

970
00:49:26,997 --> 00:49:27,998
Check out the power.

971
00:49:28,065 --> 00:49:30,634
[Mauro] The power, poise
and athletic prowess, Percy.

972
00:49:30,701 --> 00:49:32,402
EC3 in a class of his own.

973
00:49:32,469 --> 00:49:35,439
[Percy] Even still, that wasn't enough
to get the three-count

974
00:49:35,505 --> 00:49:37,708
and get the victory
over the Velveteen Dream.

975
00:49:38,208 --> 00:49:40,477
[Nigel] The hulking EC3

976
00:49:40,544 --> 00:49:43,547
has a Strong advantage in this match now.

977
00:49:43,613 --> 00:49:48,552
[Mauro] Let's not forget Velveteen Dream's
still just 22 years of age.

978
00:49:48,618 --> 00:49:49,486
[Percy] Oh!

979
00:49:49,553 --> 00:49:55,792
[Mauro] A prodigy, someone
who is looking to continue his string

980
00:49:55,859 --> 00:50:00,630
of memorable TakeOver matches,
but in touch against EC3.

981
00:50:00,697 --> 00:50:03,033
And they're both in a precarious position.

982
00:50:04,768 --> 00:50:08,105
Both wanting to climb up
the proverbial ladder at NXT

983
00:50:08,171 --> 00:50:10,407
as they climb to the top turnbuckle!

984
00:50:11,608 --> 00:50:12,676
[Nigel] Precarious.

985
00:50:13,210 --> 00:50:14,878
-[Percy laughs]
-[Nigel] Oh!

986
00:50:14,945 --> 00:50:15,946
[Mauro] EC3!

987
00:50:16,013 --> 00:50:17,047
[Nigel] Look at EC3

988
00:50:17,114 --> 00:50:19,416
grabbing the back of his neck
that was injured

989
00:50:19,483 --> 00:50:22,352
with the DDT earlier in the match.

990
00:50:23,954 --> 00:50:27,024
[Mauro] And yet it looks
as if Velveteen Dream

991
00:50:27,090 --> 00:50:29,960
got the worse for wear
and he's down for two.

992
00:50:31,728 --> 00:50:33,597
[Nigel] EC3, excuse me,

993
00:50:33,663 --> 00:50:35,632
falling from quite a height up there,

994
00:50:35,699 --> 00:50:38,835
landing hard on the back of his neck.

995
00:50:39,569 --> 00:50:40,737
[Percy] Can't blame EC3.

996
00:50:40,804 --> 00:50:42,139
He had to do something new

997
00:50:42,205 --> 00:50:44,808
that Velveteen Dream
wouldn't expect from EC3.

998
00:50:44,875 --> 00:50:46,977
But that was big
but just wasn't big enough.

999
00:50:50,047 --> 00:50:52,916
[Nigel] Which begs the question,
what is big enough?

1000
00:50:54,484 --> 00:50:55,685
We might see it here.

1001
00:50:55,752 --> 00:50:57,554
[Mauro] Fireman's carry on the apron.

1002
00:51:00,457 --> 00:51:02,626
And Velveteen Dream
lands back in the ring.

1003
00:51:02,692 --> 00:51:06,496
Superkick by Velveteen Dream on EC3!

1004
00:51:07,030 --> 00:51:09,266
-[Percy] Oh!
-[Mauro] Dream valley driver!

1005
00:51:09,332 --> 00:51:12,069
Dream valley driver
by the Velveteen Dream!

1006
00:51:12,135 --> 00:51:13,503
Will this be enough?

1007
00:51:13,570 --> 00:51:15,138
No!

1008
00:51:16,540 --> 00:51:18,175
[Percy] That one half a second

1009
00:51:18,241 --> 00:51:20,944
Velveteen took to get the cover
off of EC3,

1010
00:51:21,011 --> 00:51:22,846
that might have cost him the victory.

1011
00:51:25,282 --> 00:51:28,118
[Mauro] And Velveteen Dream
cannot believe it.

1012
00:51:28,618 --> 00:51:31,521
EC3 able to kick out

1013
00:51:31,588 --> 00:51:34,424
of the rolling death valley driver,

1014
00:51:34,491 --> 00:51:36,626
he calls the Dream valley driver.

1015
00:51:36,693 --> 00:51:38,562
And we are all basking

1016
00:51:38,628 --> 00:51:40,964
in the Velveteen Dream experience.

1017
00:51:41,031 --> 00:51:42,632
[fighter grunting]

1018
00:51:42,699 --> 00:51:45,402
[Mauro] Oh, but Velveteen Dream
unable to get EC3 up.

1019
00:51:45,469 --> 00:51:46,436
[commentators] Oh!

1020
00:51:46,503 --> 00:51:49,706
[Mauro] Fireman's suplex
and Dream again escaped.

1021
00:51:49,773 --> 00:51:51,908
But you wonder what toll it took on EC3

1022
00:51:51,975 --> 00:51:53,643
landing on his neck like that.

1023
00:51:53,710 --> 00:51:55,278
[Nigel] For the second time

1024
00:51:55,345 --> 00:51:59,182
that DDT on the outside
played a factor in this match.

1025
00:51:59,249 --> 00:52:03,587
EC3 was unable to drive with his neck

1026
00:52:03,653 --> 00:52:08,592
to get the full leverage
with that German pinfall attempt.

1027
00:52:08,658 --> 00:52:12,095
[Mauro] And despite EC3 showing his
power time and time again,

1028
00:52:12,162 --> 00:52:14,698
it's that twisting DDT on the ramp

1029
00:52:14,764 --> 00:52:18,201
that remains the most pivotal
moment of this matchup.

1030
00:52:18,268 --> 00:52:22,272
And yet EC3 now
has Velveteen Dream on the apron.

1031
00:52:22,339 --> 00:52:24,508
[Percy] Velveteen Dream
could be in trouble--

1032
00:52:24,574 --> 00:52:26,710
[Mauro] Counter here by Velveteen Dream.

1033
00:52:26,776 --> 00:52:28,278
[Percy laughing] Oh!

1034
00:52:28,345 --> 00:52:30,514
[Mauro] Dream valley driver on the apron!

1035
00:52:30,580 --> 00:52:33,717
[Nigel] Again, the injured neck of EC3.

1036
00:52:33,783 --> 00:52:35,952
[crowd cheering]

1037
00:52:36,620 --> 00:52:38,021
[Percy] What is he doing?

1038
00:52:38,588 --> 00:52:40,590
[Mauro] This is what it sounds like

1039
00:52:40,657 --> 00:52:43,126
when Velveteen Dream flies!

1040
00:52:44,761 --> 00:52:47,063
[crowd] One, two, three.

1041
00:52:47,130 --> 00:52:51,034
-[bell ringing]
-[Mauro] Velveteen Dream vanquishing EC3!

1042
00:52:51,101 --> 00:52:55,305
[Kayla] Your winner, the Velveteen Dream!

1043
00:52:55,372 --> 00:52:56,239
[crowd cheering]

1045

1046
00:53:03,580 --> 00:53:06,316
[Mauro] He may in fact
be getting that call

1047
00:53:06,383 --> 00:53:09,019
with the performance like that.

1048
00:53:09,085 --> 00:53:14,991
Velveteen Dream staves off
the attack of EC3

1049
00:53:15,058 --> 00:53:19,396
and is able to record
another impressive victory,

1050
00:53:19,930 --> 00:53:22,232
bouncing back from the loss to Ricochet

1051
00:53:22,299 --> 00:53:24,467

1052
00:53:24,534 --> 00:53:26,870
[Nigel] EC3 did the absolute best

1053
00:53:26,937 --> 00:53:29,072
to try to get the momentum
back in his favor.

1054
00:53:29,139 --> 00:53:31,575
But the injury to the neck
early in the match

1055
00:53:31,641 --> 00:53:33,743
played too big of a factor in the match.

1056
00:53:33,810 --> 00:53:38,348
[Percy] This was pretty much
the beginning of the end here for EC3.

1057

Velveteen Dream just going to work
with that death valley driver.

1058
00:53:42,953 --> 00:53:46,356
But yet it's still EC3 was able
to kick out of this one.

1059
00:53:48,692 --> 00:53:51,695
[Nigel] As the match would continue
down to the wire though,

1060
00:53:51,761 --> 00:53:55,198
it would be Velveteen Dream
who would get the advantage back

on the apron,

01:02:24,173 --> 01:02:27,610
where the U.E. planted its flag in NXT,

1216
01:02:27,677 --> 01:02:30,580
and Adam Cole made his NXT debut

1217
01:02:30,646 --> 01:02:32,815
while he and the rest
of the Undisputed Era

1218
01:02:32,882 --> 01:02:36,419
have designs on running this town tonight.

1219
01:02:37,653 --> 01:02:38,988
[crowd] Boom.

1220
01:02:39,655 --> 01:02:40,890
[Nigel] It was Adam Cole

1221
01:02:40,957 --> 01:02:44,293
who was leading that army of Harmony,

1222
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:46,362
otherwise known as the Undisputed Era.

1223
01:02:51,367 --> 01:02:54,470
[fans chanting]

1224
01:02:55,204 --> 01:02:58,174
[Nigel] Something that make men envy him

1225
01:02:58,241 --> 01:02:59,809
and Women adore him.

1226
01:03:03,679 --> 01:03:06,749
[Mauro] NXT TakeOver Brooklyn
is presented by Mayans,

1227
01:03:06,816 --> 01:03:09,652
from Kurt Sutter,
the creator of Sons of Anarchy.

1228
01:03:09,719 --> 01:03:14,223
Mayans premieres Tuesday,
September 4th on FX.

1229
01:03:17,860 --> 01:03:19,028
The Undisputed Era

1230
01:03:19,095 --> 01:03:22,431
will give a motorcycle gang
a run for its money

1231
01:03:22,498 --> 01:03:25,168
when it comes to its ruthless aggression.

1232
01:03:26,769 --> 01:03:29,338
[Percy] Fellows, what a difference
a year makes

1233
01:03:29,906 --> 01:03:31,874
for Adam Cole and the Undisputed Era.

1234
01:03:31,941 --> 01:03:34,544
Era now NXT Tag Team champions,

1235
01:03:34,610 --> 01:03:36,379
Adam Cole, North American champion.

1236
01:03:36,445 --> 01:03:39,448
-[Percy] The gold going to school.
-[bell ringing]

1237
01:03:39,515 --> 01:03:43,085
[Mauro] The NXT North American
Championship up for grabs.

1238
01:03:43,719 --> 01:03:46,155
Two of the premier talents in NXT.

1239
01:03:46,222 --> 01:03:49,525
Remember, at that sensational ladder match

1240
01:03:49,592 --> 01:03:51,394
at NXT TakeOver New Orleans,

1241
01:03:51,994 --> 01:03:55,832
it was both Ricochet and Adam Cole

1242
01:03:55,898 --> 01:03:58,768
coming so close
to becoming inaugural champion.

1243
01:03:58,835 --> 01:04:02,171
Cole kept Ricochet
from procuring the Championship.

1244
01:04:07,376 --> 01:04:09,812
[Nigel] So Ricochet certainly
has an axe to grind.

1245
01:04:11,514 --> 01:04:15,885
It will be interesting to see
the effect that has on the risks

1246
01:04:15,952 --> 01:04:18,321
that Ricochet is willing
to take in this match.

1247
01:04:18,988 --> 01:04:22,458
[Mauro] Cole feels that
he is on a completely different level

1248
01:04:22,525 --> 01:04:23,492
than Ricochet.

1249
01:04:23,559 --> 01:04:27,230
He goes so far as to say
that Ricochet isn't special.

1250
01:04:27,296 --> 01:04:30,032
Many of the NXT universe
would beg to differ.

1251
01:04:31,868 --> 01:04:34,870
[Nigel] I'd have to disagree
with Adam Cole in that assertion.

1252
01:04:34,937 --> 01:04:36,672
This man is absolutely special.

1253
01:04:36,739 --> 01:04:38,808
He's called the one and only for a reason.

1254
01:04:40,276 --> 01:04:42,411
The question is, is he special enough

1255
01:04:43,379 --> 01:04:44,981
to take that North American title

1256
01:04:45,047 --> 01:04:46,949
from around the waist of Adam Cole?

1257
01:04:47,016 --> 01:04:49,752
[Mauro] Cole would love
to keep Ricochet grounded,

1258
01:04:49,819 --> 01:04:52,121
control this contest on the mat

1259
01:04:52,188 --> 01:04:55,124
as Ricochet immediately
showing off his athleticism

1260
01:04:55,825 --> 01:04:57,460
and reversing

1261
01:04:58,694 --> 01:05:01,530
on Adam Cole. Will we get a clean break?

1262
01:05:03,933 --> 01:05:05,668
-[Nigel] No.
-[Mauro] Of course not.

1263
01:05:11,774 --> 01:05:13,242
[Percy] Oh.

1264
01:05:13,309 --> 01:05:17,546
-[Mauro] Cole almost nail Ricochet.
-You're not special.

1265
01:05:17,613 --> 01:05:20,283
[Percy] That was close. Close don't count.

1266
01:05:21,617 --> 01:05:23,119
[fans shouting]

1267
01:05:23,185 --> 01:05:27,490
[Nigel] Still continuing the brow beating.

1268
01:05:27,556 --> 01:05:29,091
"You're not special".

1269
01:05:29,158 --> 01:05:30,826
You're not special, Ricochet.

1270
01:05:30,893 --> 01:05:32,928
[Mauro] Cole and Ricochet have conquered

1271
01:05:32,995 --> 01:05:34,964
every sports entertainment stage

1272
01:05:35,031 --> 01:05:36,666
they have competed on, but now,

1273
01:05:36,732 --> 01:05:38,100
at the highest level,

1274
01:05:38,167 --> 01:05:40,569
their moment to shine here tonight

1275
01:05:40,636 --> 01:05:43,139
at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn IV.

1276
01:05:48,311 --> 01:05:50,579
[Nigel] You mentioned earlier
how Ricochet said

1277
01:05:50,646 --> 01:05:52,581
where he grew up no one was famous.

1278
01:05:52,648 --> 01:05:55,251
Do you think perhaps
being told you're not special

1279
01:05:55,318 --> 01:05:56,319
gets in his head?

1280
01:05:56,385 --> 01:05:58,387
Especially because of where he grew up.

1281
01:05:58,454 --> 01:05:59,755
[Percy] I don't think so.

1282
01:05:59,822 --> 01:06:02,258
This is a man who wants to fight
for a Championship.

1283
01:06:02,325 --> 01:06:04,627
He wants to fight against the very best.

1284
01:06:04,694 --> 01:06:06,362
I believe coming from Adam Cole,

1285
01:06:06,429 --> 01:06:08,030
for him to say he's not special,

1286
01:06:08,097 --> 01:06:09,231
he doesn't care at all.

1287
01:06:09,298 --> 01:06:11,701
He's going to show him
how special he is tonight.

1288
01:06:11,767 --> 01:06:15,538
[Mauro] Cole upset, I believe,
with Ricochet garnering all the headlines

1289
01:06:15,604 --> 01:06:19,842
despite the fact Adam Cole
is the North American champion.

1290
01:06:20,743 --> 01:06:23,813
Kip up there and again,
Adam Cole putting on a squeeze

1291
01:06:23,879 --> 01:06:26,749
that Dr. Pimple Popper would be proud of.

1292
01:06:27,416 --> 01:06:29,752
And again just continues
to bad mouth Ricochet

1293
01:06:29,819 --> 01:06:31,253
saying "you're not special",

1294
01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:33,122
trying to get into Ricochet's head.

1295
01:06:33,189 --> 01:06:36,058
-Adam Cole, baby!
-[crowd] Adam Cole, baby!

1296
01:06:36,826 --> 01:06:38,227
[Percy] Looks like Adam Cole

1297
01:06:38,294 --> 01:06:41,063
is just maybe just one step
ahead of Ricochet so far.

1298
01:06:43,466 --> 01:06:45,167
[Mauro] Leap frog by Ricochet.

1299
01:06:46,969 --> 01:06:48,204
And now Ricochet…

1300
01:06:48,871 --> 01:06:50,806
[commentators] Oh!

1301
01:06:50,873 --> 01:06:51,907
[Percy] There we go.

1302
01:06:51,974 --> 01:06:54,076
[Mauro] What a drop kick by Ricochet.

1303
01:06:54,143 --> 01:06:57,013
[crowd cheering]

1304
01:06:59,115 --> 01:07:00,816
[Nigel] Cole in the danger zone.

1305
01:07:02,685 --> 01:07:04,854
-[Mauro] And spring back flip.
-[Percy] Wow!

1306
01:07:06,489 --> 01:07:08,991
[crowd cheering]

1307
01:07:12,061 --> 01:07:15,097
[fans chanting]

1308
01:07:15,898 --> 01:07:18,634
[Mauro] Ricochet calling
Adam Cole a coward.

1309
01:07:18,701 --> 01:07:23,139
And, well, Cole's actions
may fit that description.

1310
01:07:24,106 --> 01:07:25,341
[commentators] Oh!

1311
01:07:31,347 --> 01:07:32,314
[Nigel] Oh!

1312
01:07:32,381 --> 01:07:36,252
[Mauro] And Adam Cole
able to avoid the offense of Ricochet.

1313
01:07:36,318 --> 01:07:40,122
[Nigel] There was nothing cowardly
about that, Mauro.

1314
01:07:40,923 --> 01:07:45,294
I would say that Adam Cole knew
exactly what he was doing in that match

1315
01:07:45,361 --> 01:07:48,197
and in the past it was Ricochet
that called him a coward.

1316
01:07:48,264 --> 01:07:49,765
He just came for retribution.

1317
01:07:49,832 --> 01:07:51,567
He just brought his friends.

1318
01:07:51,634 --> 01:07:56,205
[Mauro] Cole showcasing
his ruthless nature.

1319
01:07:57,039 --> 01:07:58,407
I'm a champion!

1320
01:08:01,277 --> 01:08:04,747
[Mauro] You can't question
Adam Cole's ring I.Q.

1321
01:08:04,814 --> 01:08:06,315
As cerebral as they come,

1322
01:08:06,382 --> 01:08:08,250
that's what makes him so dangerous.

1323
01:08:08,317 --> 01:08:10,486
Also, the ultimate opportunist.

1324
01:08:12,521 --> 01:08:14,690
[Nigel] We had Ricochet
on the preshow earlier

1325
01:08:14,757 --> 01:08:16,826
saying he's built to handle pressure.

1326
01:08:16,892 --> 01:08:20,396
He's got a lot of it coming now
that Adam Cole has the advantage.

1327
01:08:20,463 --> 01:08:23,232
[Mauro] Ground and pound
from the full mount by Adam Cole

1328
01:08:23,299 --> 01:08:27,736
keeping the high flyer
neutralized on the canvas.

1329
01:08:30,239 --> 01:08:31,974
[Percy] Smart move by Adam Cole.

1330
01:08:32,041 --> 01:08:34,477
Last thing you want
is Ricochet flying around.

1331
01:08:37,446 --> 01:08:40,549
[Mauro] And a back press.
The cover by Cole gets the two-count.

1332
01:08:40,616 --> 01:08:42,351
After his auspicious debut

1333
01:08:42,418 --> 01:08:45,087
at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn III last year,

1334
01:08:45,154 --> 01:08:49,758
Cole tweeted out making enemies
is all part of making history.

1335
01:08:49,825 --> 01:08:52,895
He's done both during his NXT tenure.

1336
01:08:54,563 --> 01:08:56,031
You're not special!

1337
01:08:57,433 --> 01:08:59,001
You're not special!

1338
01:09:00,302 --> 01:09:01,971
[Mauro] What does that do to a guy

1339
01:09:02,037 --> 01:09:04,840
when you keep hearing
the same thing, "you're not special"?

1340
01:09:04,907 --> 01:09:07,443
Obviously, Ricochet
not taking kindly to it.

1341
01:09:07,510 --> 01:09:10,145
[Nigel] Of course not,
imagine how that'd make you feel

1342
01:09:10,212 --> 01:09:12,414
time and time again
to be heard the same thing.

1343
01:09:12,481 --> 01:09:13,349
[Mauro] Oh!

1344
01:09:13,415 --> 01:09:15,985
[Nigel] Really it comes down
to the testament.

1345
01:09:16,051 --> 01:09:19,321
[Mauro] That was a special counter
by Cole into the side press.

1346
01:09:19,388 --> 01:09:21,357
Hooks the leg and gets a two-count.

1347
01:09:23,926 --> 01:09:26,262
[Nigel] One of the reasons Cole is so good

1348
01:09:26,328 --> 01:09:28,664
is he's just so irritating.

1349
01:09:28,731 --> 01:09:30,266
He gets under your skin.

1350
01:09:30,332 --> 01:09:32,268
You might think it doesn't affect you

1351
01:09:32,334 --> 01:09:33,936
until he gets deep in the match.

1352
01:09:34,003 --> 01:09:36,238
And then you make a mistake
and you take a risk

1353
01:09:36,305 --> 01:09:38,641
that you wouldn't otherwise have taken.

1354
01:09:38,707 --> 01:09:41,410
[Mauro] As technically proficient
as they come,

1355
01:09:41,477 --> 01:09:45,648
and Adam Cole just utilizing the grip here

1356
01:09:45,714 --> 01:09:48,150
and just wearing down Ricochet.

1357
01:09:48,217 --> 01:09:49,051
Give it up.

1358
01:09:49,118 --> 01:09:52,721
[Percy] Winding on the neck,
cutting off the air supply of Ricochet.

1359
01:09:52,788 --> 01:09:55,357
[Mauro] Adam Cole does everything
with a purpose.

1360
01:09:55,424 --> 01:09:57,393
No wasted movement.

1361
01:09:57,459 --> 01:09:59,895
[Nigel] Absolutely the way
Adam Cole moves,

1362
01:10:00,529 --> 01:10:02,231
the moves that he uses.

1363
01:10:02,298 --> 01:10:05,167
Of course, this young man has
been likened in some ways

1364
01:10:05,234 --> 01:10:06,869
to Shawn Michaels in the past.

1365
01:10:06,936 --> 01:10:08,737
[Mauro] Heavy praise indeed.

1366
01:10:08,804 --> 01:10:11,540
And he may very well
live up to that comparison.

1367
01:10:12,808 --> 01:10:15,344
The current NXT North American champion,

1368
01:10:15,411 --> 01:10:18,881
oh, but he just walked
right into a back elbow from Ricochet.

1369
01:10:23,219 --> 01:10:24,987
[Nigel] Whoa!

1370
01:10:25,054 --> 01:10:28,691
[Mauro] Beautiful front drop kick
by Ricochet.

1371
01:10:28,757 --> 01:10:30,092
[Nigel] See the way Ricochet

1372
01:10:30,159 --> 01:10:31,894
hit that drop kick completely blind.

1373
01:10:31,961 --> 01:10:34,163
He knew exactly where his opponent was

1374
01:10:34,230 --> 01:10:36,398
even though he didn't have
his eyes on him.

1375
01:10:37,166 --> 01:10:40,402
[Percy] I don't care what Cole says,
I think he's about to show us.

1376
01:10:40,469 --> 01:10:42,271
[Mauro] …adrenaline in his veins!

1377
01:10:43,606 --> 01:10:46,375
And Ricochet can get higher
than a stealth fighter

1378
01:10:46,442 --> 01:10:49,378
and he's definitely
not gonna throw away his shot

1379
01:10:49,445 --> 01:10:52,214
at the NXT North American Championship.

1380
01:10:56,018 --> 01:10:58,854
[Nigel] Take a look at this,
pinpoint precision.

1381
01:10:58,921 --> 01:11:00,089
Fosbury flop.

1382
01:11:00,155 --> 01:11:03,058
Look at the way Ricochet lands.

1383
01:11:03,792 --> 01:11:04,860
[Percy] One more time.

1384
01:11:04,927 --> 01:11:07,296
Adam Cole says that
Ricochet is not special,

1385
01:11:07,363 --> 01:11:09,264
I think he just proved Adam Cole wrong.

1386
01:11:09,331 --> 01:11:11,467
[Mauro] Ricochet has been
anything but a flop

1387
01:11:11,533 --> 01:11:13,235
in his sports entertainment career.

1388
01:11:13,302 --> 01:11:15,571
Tiger fink kick on Cole.

1389
01:11:16,705 --> 01:11:19,141
Springboard, European upper cut

1390
01:11:19,208 --> 01:11:21,377
levels the North American champion.

1391
01:11:21,443 --> 01:11:24,113
Back press, Ricochet gets a two-count!

1392
01:11:25,848 --> 01:11:29,818
Just one count away
from becoming the one and only

1393
01:11:29,885 --> 01:11:32,154
NXT North American champ.

1394
01:11:32,221 --> 01:11:34,957
[Nigel] Look at the determination
on the face of Ricochet.

1395
01:11:35,024 --> 01:11:36,759
Then grabbing at his neck as well.

1396
01:11:37,693 --> 01:11:39,728
[fans shouting]

1397
01:11:39,795 --> 01:11:41,530
[Mauro] Fireman's carry by Ricochet.

1398
01:11:41,597 --> 01:11:42,798
Cole landing on his feet.

1399
01:11:42,865 --> 01:11:45,401
Back elbow by Ricochet.

1400
01:11:45,934 --> 01:11:47,536
Cole retreating to the corner.

1401
01:11:52,875 --> 01:11:54,476
Oh, kip up.

1402
01:11:54,543 --> 01:11:56,645
Roundhouse kick to the shoulder blade

1403
01:11:56,712 --> 01:11:58,714
of Adam Cole by Ricochet.

1404
01:11:59,448 --> 01:12:00,883
[Percy] What's he got in mind?

1405
01:12:00,949 --> 01:12:02,718
[Mauro] Lands on his feet.

1406
01:12:02,785 --> 01:12:06,455
Standing shooting star press,
roll through by Ricochet.

1407
01:12:06,522 --> 01:12:08,791
But instead of going
for the cover, goes back.

1408
01:12:08,857 --> 01:12:09,725
[Percy] One more.

1409
01:12:09,792 --> 01:12:11,060
[Mauro] Phoenix splash.

1410
01:12:11,126 --> 01:12:13,262
[crowd couting]

1411
01:12:13,329 --> 01:12:14,430
[Percy] Oh!

1412
01:12:14,496 --> 01:12:15,998
[Mauro] Cole just kicked out,

1413
01:12:16,065 --> 01:12:20,669
a dizzying display
of offensive maneuvers from Ricochet.

1414
01:12:22,304 --> 01:12:23,939
This guy is a cheap code.

1415
01:12:24,673 --> 01:12:27,076
[Percy] We said this man
can absolutely do it all.

1416
01:12:27,142 --> 01:12:28,544
Take a look at this rotation.

1417
01:12:28,610 --> 01:12:30,779
But ore importantly,
look at the impact here

1418
01:12:30,846 --> 01:12:33,315
across the abdominal section of Adam Cole.

1419
01:12:33,382 --> 01:12:34,483
I thought this was it.

1420
01:12:35,951 --> 01:12:37,853
[Nigel] It's like a human video game

1421
01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:39,388
when Ricochet is in the ring.

1422
01:12:40,589 --> 01:12:43,392
[Mauro] I think I called him
a cheap code for a reason.

1423
01:12:43,459 --> 01:12:44,493
Now, Ricochet--

1424
01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:47,362
Oh, Adam Cole with a couple of shots

1425
01:12:47,429 --> 01:12:49,365
to the back of Ricochet's neck.

1426
01:12:49,431 --> 01:12:51,200
But Ricochet stopping Cole

1427
01:12:51,266 --> 01:12:52,634
with that knife edge chop.

1428
01:12:53,202 --> 01:12:55,471
And Ricochet showing off
some of his strength.

1429
01:12:57,005 --> 01:12:59,942
Well versed in all facets
of sports entertainment.

1430
01:13:00,843 --> 01:13:02,277
Constantly evolving his game.

1431
01:13:02,344 --> 01:13:04,713
[Nigel] Ricochet
is one of the best high flyers.

1432
01:13:04,780 --> 01:13:06,849
But the reason he's such a good superstar

1433
01:13:06,915 --> 01:13:08,951
is he knows when to employ that

1434
01:13:09,017 --> 01:13:11,120
and when to try other tactics.

1435
01:13:11,186 --> 01:13:12,388
[Mauro] And spring-- Oh!

1436
01:13:12,454 --> 01:13:13,522
[Percy] Oh, man!

1437
01:13:15,057 --> 01:13:17,393
[Mauro] Back stabber by Cole
for a two-count.

1438
01:13:17,459 --> 01:13:18,761
What a counter.

1439
01:13:18,827 --> 01:13:22,431
And again two of the highest
ring I.Q.'S in NXT

1440
01:13:22,498 --> 01:13:24,166
and you're seeing why tonight.

1441
01:13:24,233 --> 01:13:26,001
[Percy] I was getting ready to say,

1442
01:13:26,068 --> 01:13:27,770
the intelligence of a competitor,

1443
01:13:27,836 --> 01:13:28,837
of a true superstar.

1444
01:13:28,904 --> 01:13:30,205
Adam Cole has that.

1445
01:13:31,607 --> 01:13:33,942
[Mauro] Man, pulling out a back stabber.

1446
01:13:34,510 --> 01:13:36,545
[Percy] It looked like
it was all Ricochet,

1447
01:13:36,612 --> 01:13:39,748
but Adam Cole, a true student of the game.

1448
01:13:39,815 --> 01:13:40,783
One step ahead.

1449
01:13:40,849 --> 01:13:44,553
[Mauro] And, Nigel, Ricochet's
momentum adding to the impact.

1450
01:13:44,620 --> 01:13:46,922
[Nigel] Absolutely. Coming off that rope,

1451
01:13:48,223 --> 01:13:50,759
far more impact, far more momentum.

1452
01:13:50,826 --> 01:13:54,763
Really it was Cole
lying in wait, playing possum.

1453
01:13:54,830 --> 01:13:56,965
[Mauro] And Cole releasing the grip.

1454
01:13:57,032 --> 01:14:01,570
Clubbing forearms,
wanting to just wear down Ricochet.

1455
01:14:02,504 --> 01:14:05,207
[Nigel] Of course, we've seen Cole
beat a lot of people.

1456
01:14:05,274 --> 01:14:08,076
And that last shot shining wizard
to the back of the neck.

1457
01:14:09,411 --> 01:14:13,449
[Mauro] Oh, what a forearm shiver
across the jaw line by Ricochet.

1458
01:14:14,583 --> 01:14:16,418
Both of these superstars involved

1459
01:14:16,485 --> 01:14:20,088
in that six-man ladder match
at NXT TakeOver New Orleans.

1460
01:14:20,155 --> 01:14:22,424
It was Adam Cole that made history.

1461
01:14:23,192 --> 01:14:24,660
But it's Ricochet

1462
01:14:24,726 --> 01:14:28,197
who wants to claim
the gold here in Brooklyn.

1463
01:14:29,731 --> 01:14:32,000
And again, using the ring--

1464
01:14:32,067 --> 01:14:33,602
[Percy] Oh, my goodness!

1465
01:14:33,669 --> 01:14:36,038
[Mauro] Ricochet just blocked
that superkick.

1466
01:14:36,104 --> 01:14:39,007
I don't know
if I have ever seen that done.

1467
01:14:39,608 --> 01:14:40,542
[crowd] Oh!

1468
01:14:40,609 --> 01:14:42,744
[Mauro] Discus forearm by Ricochet!

1469
01:14:42,811 --> 01:14:44,613
[Nigel] You talk about ring I.Q.

1470
01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:46,715
the ability to know
where your opponent is,

1471
01:14:46,782 --> 01:14:48,584
great example from Ricochet.

1472
01:14:48,650 --> 01:14:49,952
This could be it.

1473
01:14:50,018 --> 01:14:51,086
[commentators] Oh!

1474
01:14:51,153 --> 01:14:53,188
[Nigel] He's down! He's out!

1475
01:14:53,255 --> 01:14:54,857
[Mauro] What timing by Adam Cole!

1476
01:14:54,923 --> 01:14:57,025
Adam Cole!

1477
01:14:57,092 --> 01:14:58,327
[Nigel] Adam Cole--

1478
01:14:58,393 --> 01:15:00,295
[crowd] One, two--

1479
01:15:00,362 --> 01:15:02,097
-[crowd shouting]
-[commentators] Oh!

1480
01:15:02,164 --> 01:15:04,733
[Mauro] Oh, wow, Ricochet
able to kick out.

1481
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:09,705
But you talk about
impeccable timing by Adam Cole!

1482
01:15:09,771 --> 01:15:11,573
-[crowd cheering]
-[Mauro] Incredible!

1483
01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:13,475
[Percy] Look at the pinpoint accuracy

1484
01:15:13,542 --> 01:15:16,778
which Adam Cole
lays this thing right to the jaw.

1485
01:15:16,845 --> 01:15:17,746
Look at this.

1486
01:15:17,813 --> 01:15:20,516
-[Mauro] The superkick!
-[Percy] Bingo. Oh, my God.

1487
01:15:20,582 --> 01:15:23,285
[Nigel] Absolutely perfect superkick
to the neck

1488
01:15:23,352 --> 01:15:25,153
here from a different angle.

1489
01:15:26,455 --> 01:15:27,856
[Mauro] Surprised that Cole

1490
01:15:27,923 --> 01:15:31,093
didn't snuff out Ricochet's pilot light

1491
01:15:31,159 --> 01:15:33,262
with that devastating kick.

1492
01:15:34,263 --> 01:15:38,233
[Nigel] Well, again, to back up
the point we made earlier,

1493
01:15:38,300 --> 01:15:41,503
there is no doubt Ricochet is special.

1494
01:15:41,570 --> 01:15:43,405
[fans chanting]

1495
01:15:43,472 --> 01:15:44,907
[Nigel] If for no other reason

1496
01:15:44,973 --> 01:15:47,175
than the punishment he's able to endure.

1497
01:15:52,381 --> 01:15:54,016
[Mauro] Cole coming off the ropes.

1498
01:15:54,082 --> 01:15:56,618
Looking for the last shot.

1499
01:15:56,685 --> 01:15:59,288
And instead it's Ricochet
rolling him up for a two.

1500
01:15:59,955 --> 01:16:00,856
What a forearm.

1501
01:16:00,923 --> 01:16:03,158
[Nigel] Right back
to the injured neck. What?

1502
01:16:05,994 --> 01:16:08,730
[Mauro] Ricochet, one wonders,

1503
01:16:08,797 --> 01:16:10,933
is he going to win a striking exchange

1504
01:16:10,999 --> 01:16:12,367
with Adam Cole?

1505
01:16:14,469 --> 01:16:15,704
[commentators] Oh!

1506
01:16:16,505 --> 01:16:18,941
-[Mauro] What a kick to the face.
-[Nigel] My lord.

1507
01:16:19,007 --> 01:16:20,208
-[crowd] Oh!
-[Percy] Man!

1508
01:16:20,275 --> 01:16:22,177
[Mauro] Step-up Enziguri by Cole.

1509
01:16:22,244 --> 01:16:24,012
A cavalcade of kicks.

1510
01:16:24,079 --> 01:16:26,481
And a jumping knee by Ricochet.

1511
01:16:26,548 --> 01:16:28,617
And another boot to the face by Cole.

1512
01:16:28,684 --> 01:16:31,353
-[Percy] Oh, my goodness!
-[Nigel] Come on!

1513
01:16:32,788 --> 01:16:33,922
[Percy] Oh, my!

1514
01:16:33,989 --> 01:16:35,924
[Mauro] Ricochet, oh, wow!

1515
01:16:36,792 --> 01:16:38,860
Cole almost able to escape

1516
01:16:38,927 --> 01:16:41,396
with the NXT North American Championship.

1517
01:16:41,463 --> 01:16:43,765
[crowd applauding]

1518
01:16:45,667 --> 01:16:47,703
[fans chanting]

1519
01:16:53,909 --> 01:16:59,281
[Mauro] The size of the welt
on the neck of Ricochet,

1520
01:16:59,348 --> 01:17:01,683
a testament to their grit.

1521
01:17:01,750 --> 01:17:05,087
A testament to their commitment
to their craft.

1522
01:17:05,153 --> 01:17:06,788
And how important is it

1523
01:17:06,855 --> 01:17:10,225
to walk out of Brooklyn
as NXT North American champion?

1524
01:17:10,292 --> 01:17:13,562
Two of the very best going at it in B.K.

1525
01:17:14,596 --> 01:17:16,965
[fans chanting]

1526
01:17:18,700 --> 01:17:21,269
[Mauro] Who will get to their feet first?

1527
01:17:23,605 --> 01:17:25,474
[Nigel] Crawl up to one knee.

1528
01:17:27,209 --> 01:17:28,343
Look where Ricochet is.

1529
01:17:28,410 --> 01:17:30,178
[Mauro] …doesn't know where he is.

1530
01:17:30,245 --> 01:17:32,581
He's trying desperately
to get back to his feet.

1531
01:17:32,648 --> 01:17:34,149
[Percy] Adam Cole is exposed.

1532
01:17:35,150 --> 01:17:36,118
[Nigel] What?

1533
01:17:36,184 --> 01:17:38,353
[Mauro] The reversal on Cole!

1534
01:17:39,688 --> 01:17:41,757
Ricochet needs to go for the cover!

1535
01:17:41,823 --> 01:17:43,859
Ricochet has to go for the cover!

1536
01:17:43,925 --> 01:17:46,828
[Percy] He was playing possum.
He was setting Adam Cole up.

1537
01:17:46,895 --> 01:17:48,497
[crowd cheering]

1538
01:17:48,563 --> 01:17:50,599
[Percy] You know what he's looking for.

1539
01:17:50,666 --> 01:17:52,100
You know what he's going for.

1540
01:17:52,167 --> 01:17:53,769
[Nigel] This could be a mistake.

1541
01:17:53,835 --> 01:17:55,270
[Mauro] Yeah, Ricochet--

1542
01:17:55,337 --> 01:17:57,105
[Nigel] Or it could be genius.

1543
01:17:57,172 --> 01:17:59,307
[Percy] Don't need wings to fly.
Here we go!

1544
01:17:59,374 --> 01:18:01,877
[Mauro] Wanting victory
in the most auspicious way.

1545
01:18:01,943 --> 01:18:05,247
And Cole is rolling out of the ring.

1546
01:18:05,313 --> 01:18:06,381
[crowd cheering]

1547
01:18:06,448 --> 01:18:08,684
[Mauro] You know what,
not going for the cover

1548
01:18:08,750 --> 01:18:10,185
may have cost Ricochet.

1549
01:18:10,252 --> 01:18:11,887
[Nigel] Absolutely did cost him.

1550
01:18:14,356 --> 01:18:16,425
The NXT universe
doesn't like that decision

1551
01:18:16,491 --> 01:18:19,628
but it was the right decision
certainly from Adam Cole.

1552
01:18:19,695 --> 01:18:22,230
[Mauro] You can't call him
a coward for being smart.

1553
01:18:22,931 --> 01:18:24,499
Cole retreating out of the ring,

1554
01:18:24,566 --> 01:18:25,934
buying himself some type.

1555
01:18:26,435 --> 01:18:27,936
Mamma Mia!

1556

Oh, my God!

1557
01:18:30,872 --> 01:18:34,076
Leaping hurricanrana by Ricochet!

1558
01:18:35,143 --> 01:18:37,145
[Percy] You talking about being fearless!

1559
01:18:39,648 --> 01:18:43,385
[Nigel] And now Ricochet
looks right again.

1560
01:18:44,186 --> 01:18:46,922
[Mauro] Ricochet on the top turnbuckle!

1561
01:18:47,289 --> 01:18:51,259
After launching himself with
that monster hurricanrana,

1562
01:18:51,326 --> 01:18:53,161
six star connects!

1563
01:18:53,228 --> 01:18:55,030
Six star connects!

01:18:59,434 --> 01:19:01,770
[Mauro] Ricochet has done it!

1567
01:19:02,437 --> 01:19:08,744
[Kayla] Your winner and new
NXT North American champion,

1568
01:19:10,011 --> 01:19:13,381
Ricochet!

1569
01:19:15,117 --> 01:19:16,852
[Percy] All the hard work,

1570
01:19:16,918 --> 01:19:19,154
all the effort that Ricochet has put in

1571
01:19:19,488 --> 01:19:21,223
over the past 15 years,

1572
01:19:21,289 --> 01:19:23,525
has finally come to fruition.

1573
01:19:23,592 --> 01:19:25,393
And this man got what he wanted,

1574
01:19:26,061 --> 01:19:27,529
an NXT Championship

1575
01:19:27,596 --> 01:19:30,332
in the form of the North American title.

[rock music playing]

1577
01:19:33,135 --> 01:19:36,037
[Mauro] A breathtaking display

1578
01:19:36,104 --> 01:19:42,144
of what makes Ricochet the one and only.

1579
01:19:42,711 --> 01:19:43,712
And how?

1580
01:19:44,613 --> 01:19:46,181
How much is he…

1581
01:19:46,248 --> 01:19:48,416
He's in his feelings right now.

1582
01:19:48,917 --> 01:19:50,385
[crowd shouting]

1583
01:19:50,452 --> 01:19:53,755
[Nigel] That's the adrenaline
running through Ricochet's body

1584
01:19:53,822 --> 01:19:57,959
that enabled him somehow to dig down deep

1585
01:19:58,026 --> 01:20:01,062
and kick out at the very last second.

1586
01:20:02,464 --> 01:20:04,800
Disbelief on the face of Cole.

1587
01:20:04,866 --> 01:20:07,769
[Percy] This is a back and forth bout
you wouldn't believe.

1588
01:20:07,836 --> 01:20:10,172
But take a look
at this innovative offense,

1589
01:20:10,238 --> 01:20:11,640
laying it all on the line,

1590
01:20:11,706 --> 01:20:13,875
doing whatever he deemed necessary

1591
01:20:13,942 --> 01:20:17,312
to find a way
to come out here victorious tonight.

1592
01:20:17,379 --> 01:20:20,282
And this right here,
is an absolute thing of beauty.

1593
01:20:20,348 --> 01:20:22,484
Picture perfect right here.

1594
01:20:22,551 --> 01:20:26,021
And this helped Ricochet walk out of here

1595
01:20:26,087 --> 01:20:27,989
with the North American Championship.

1596
01:20:28,056 --> 01:20:30,158
Congratulations, young man. You did it.

by the NXT universe.

01:20:41,436 --> 01:20:45,640
Meanwhile, a quest fallen Adam Cole
can't believe his fate.

01:20:46,942 --> 01:20:49,611
[rock music continues]

1601
01:20:52,581 --> 01:20:55,116
[Nigel] Ricochet said
it's not about being good.

1602
01:20:56,051 --> 01:20:58,687
Not about being great,
not about being special.

1603
01:20:58,753 --> 01:21:00,422
It's about being better.

1604
01:21:00,488 --> 01:21:03,525
And tonight Ricochet was the better man.

1605
01:21:06,628 --> 01:21:11,166
[Mauro] The new
NXT North American champion

1606
01:21:11,233 --> 01:21:14,536
is Ricochet, baby!

1607
01:21:14,603 --> 01:21:17,906
[Percy] One more time.
You have to look at this thing yet again.

1608
01:21:17,973 --> 01:21:20,075
Look at the precision.

1609
01:21:20,141 --> 01:21:22,277
Look at the accuracy right here.

1610
01:21:22,978 --> 01:21:25,981
All the impact on the chest of Adam Cole.

1611
01:21:26,047 --> 01:21:28,016
There was no way that Adam Cole

1612
01:21:28,083 --> 01:21:29,985
was gonna be able to kick out of that.

1613
01:21:30,051 --> 01:21:32,454
[Nigel] He was rotating so fast

1614
01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:36,524
that adds to the momentum
of the impact when you land.

1615
01:21:37,759 --> 01:21:39,628
Like a spinning top, oh,

1616
01:21:39,694 --> 01:21:42,030
Crossing down with every pound,

1617
01:21:42,097 --> 01:21:46,601

out of the chest of Adam Cole.

[Joe] Oh, AJ.

1631
01:22:31,346 --> 01:22:32,981
You've lost focus

1632
01:22:33,048 --> 01:22:35,984
on what's really dangerous around you.

1633
01:22:38,453 --> 01:22:41,323
[male voice] Samoa Joe clashes with styles

1634
01:22:41,389 --> 01:22:42,958
for the WWE Championship.

1635
01:22:43,024 --> 01:22:46,962
Can he tear down the house
that A.J. Styles built?

1636
01:22:47,028 --> 01:22:51,666

that Sane lacks the killer instinct.

1651

01:23:35,910 --> 01:23:38,646

That's why I'm here with this
and she's not.

[Kairi] Since the Mae Young Classic,

1686
01:25:26,254 --> 01:25:29,390
I haven't won against Shayna.

1687
01:25:30,992 --> 01:25:32,760
That has to change.

towards the NXT Women's Championship.

1713

[Percy] After the last weeks,

1714
01:27:20,468 --> 01:27:24,639
seeing the aggression change
and rise in Kairi Sane,

she knows what's on the line
and is willing to take it all the way

1716

that this is a different Shayna Baszler

01:28:03,011 --> 01:28:07,515
than the one that Onna Kaizoku faced
in the inaugural Mae Young Classic.

1729
01:28:07,582 --> 01:28:08,950
The question is,

1730
01:28:09,017 --> 01:28:11,953
how much can the Pirate Princess change

1731
01:28:12,020 --> 01:28:13,955
in that same period of time?

1732
01:28:14,022 --> 01:28:15,757
[Mauro] Sane earned the opportunity

1733
01:28:15,823 --> 01:28:17,892
at the NXT Women's Championship tonight

1734
01:28:17,959 --> 01:28:20,828
by winning a number one contenders
triple threat match

1735
01:28:20,895 --> 01:28:23,464
against Nikki Cross and Candice Lerae.

1736
01:28:24,065 --> 01:28:26,034
And while Shayna Baszler has contended

1737
01:28:26,100 --> 01:28:29,170
that Sane does not have
the killer instinct, well,

1738
01:28:29,237 --> 01:28:32,273
Shayna Baszler should ask Aliyah
if that's the case,

1739
01:28:32,340 --> 01:28:36,344
after what we saw
this past Wednesday on NXT TV.

1740
01:28:36,411 --> 01:28:39,414
[Percy] Agreed, she made her tap
while she pointed at Baszler.

1741
01:28:43,117 --> 01:28:46,354
[rock music playing]

1742
01:28:57,465 --> 01:29:01,436
[Mauro] NXT Women's champion,

1743
01:29:01,502 --> 01:29:02,937
the queen of spades,

1744
01:29:03,004 --> 01:29:05,373
more ruthless than the queen of hearts.

1745
01:29:05,440 --> 01:29:07,608
Off with their heads may be the goal

1746
01:29:07,675 --> 01:29:10,812
when it comes
to the lethal kirifuda clutch.

1747
01:29:12,080 --> 01:29:14,349
[Nigel] It may sound like
the witch of the west,

1748
01:29:14,415 --> 01:29:16,684
but this is no fairy tale.

1749
01:29:17,585 --> 01:29:20,955
It doesn't matter how many times
Sane clicks her heels,

1750
01:29:21,022 --> 01:29:22,223
she's not going home.

1751
01:29:22,290 --> 01:29:26,194
[Mauro] It was at NXT TakeOver
New Orleans, WrestleMania Weekend,

1752
01:29:26,260 --> 01:29:28,730
where Shayna Baszler bested Ember Moon

1753
01:29:28,796 --> 01:29:32,667
to become the new NXT Women's champion.

1754
01:29:34,035 --> 01:29:36,204
[rock music continues]

1755
01:29:38,639 --> 01:29:44,145
[Mauro] And we've seen
her brutality continue to rise, Percy.

1756
01:29:44,212 --> 01:29:48,316
[Percy] This woman has tormented
everyone on the roster

1757
01:29:48,383 --> 01:29:50,885
on her way to becoming Women's champion,

1758
01:29:50,952 --> 01:29:53,388
from Aliyah to Dakota Kai, you name it.

1759
01:29:54,856 --> 01:29:55,723
[bell ringing]

1760
01:29:56,224 --> 01:29:59,827
[Kayla] The following contest
scheduled for one fall

1761
01:29:59,894 --> 01:30:04,866
is for the NXT Women's Championship.

1762
01:30:04,932 --> 01:30:06,434
[crowd cheering]

1763
01:30:07,769 --> 01:30:10,004
[Kayla] Introducing the challenger,

1764
01:30:10,071 --> 01:30:14,642
from Yamaguchi, Japan, Kairi Sane!

1765
01:30:14,709 --> 01:30:17,545
[crowd cheering]

1766
01:30:21,082 --> 01:30:22,650
[Kayla] And her opponent,

1767
01:30:22,717 --> 01:30:25,019
from Sioux Falls, South Dakota,

1768
01:30:25,086 --> 01:30:28,122
she is the NXT Women's champion,

1769
01:30:29,223 --> 01:30:32,193
Shayna Baszler!

1770
01:30:34,395 --> 01:30:36,898
[cheers and boos]

1771
01:30:42,603 --> 01:30:44,806
[Mauro] Baszler said that
tonight is the night

1772
01:30:44,872 --> 01:30:48,576
the fantasy Kairi Sane is living in ends.

1773
01:30:49,644 --> 01:30:54,182
Sane hopes it ends
with that Championship around her waist,

1774
01:30:54,248 --> 01:30:56,951
the NXT Women's title.

1775
01:30:58,853 --> 01:31:00,955
[Nigel] This is the third match.

1776
01:31:01,022 --> 01:31:02,523
They are tied 1-1.

1777
01:31:02,590 --> 01:31:05,159
Usually in the rubber match
the champion is favored.

1778
01:31:06,394 --> 01:31:08,162
There is some people who have said

1779
01:31:08,229 --> 01:31:12,066
that Kairi Sane
is a heavy underdog in this match.

1780
01:31:14,068 --> 01:31:15,303
[Mauro] And there a look

1781
01:31:15,369 --> 01:31:19,373
at Ronda Rousey, Marina Shafir
and Jessamyn Duke,

1782
01:31:19,440 --> 01:31:22,477
who round out The Four Horsewomen
with Shayna Baszler.

1783
01:31:22,543 --> 01:31:25,546
And how important is this match
to Ronda Rousey?

1784
01:31:25,613 --> 01:31:29,083
She's on the eve of the biggest match
of her sports entertainment career,

1785
01:31:29,150 --> 01:31:31,752
against Alexa Bliss tomorrow at SummerSlam

1786
01:31:31,819 --> 01:31:33,754
and yet she's here at ringside

1787
01:31:33,821 --> 01:31:36,424
to support the queen of spades.

1788
01:31:37,859 --> 01:31:40,127
[Nigel] Every one of The Four Horsewomen,

1789
01:31:40,194 --> 01:31:42,730
they stay together, they fight together.

1790
01:31:43,731 --> 01:31:45,900
[Mauro] And the early reviews
are sterling for

1791
01:31:45,967 --> 01:31:47,735
Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir.

1792
01:31:47,802 --> 01:31:51,105
But now the focus
on Shayna Baszler and Kairi Sane.

1793
01:31:51,172 --> 01:31:52,406
What an escape by Sane.

1794
01:31:54,141 --> 01:31:55,276
[Percy] That's quick.

1795
01:31:56,611 --> 01:31:59,013
[Mauro] Looking to trick
the submission magician.

1796
01:32:01,582 --> 01:32:03,217
And NXT TakeOver

1797
01:32:03,284 --> 01:32:07,889
continuing to trend worldwide
at number one sold out,

1798
01:32:07,955 --> 01:32:12,193
just over 14,600 fans
here at Barclays Center.

1799
01:32:12,827 --> 01:32:14,362
And we're about to determine

1800
01:32:14,428 --> 01:32:17,398
the number one woman in NXT.

1801
01:32:17,999 --> 01:32:21,235
[Percy] Kairi Sane tried to beat
Shayna Baszler at her own game.

1802
01:32:23,070 --> 01:32:25,172
[Nigel] The single leg--

1803
01:32:25,239 --> 01:32:27,642
…and Baszler had it scouted
easily again.

1804
01:32:28,910 --> 01:32:30,344
[Mauro] Single leg take-down

1805
01:32:30,411 --> 01:32:33,180
and there's Sane
looking for the quick pin.

1806
01:32:33,247 --> 01:32:34,782
Another quick rollup by Sane,

1807
01:32:34,849 --> 01:32:36,417
wanting to shock Shayna Baszler,

1808
01:32:36,484 --> 01:32:40,321
outstretch muffler,
stretched muffler by Kairi Sane.

1809
01:32:42,056 --> 01:32:45,159
Wow, and Sane I think
is bedeviling Shayna Baszler

1810
01:32:45,226 --> 01:32:47,128
with her attempts at these submissions.

1811
01:32:47,194 --> 01:32:49,096
[Nigel] Oh, head to head.

1812
01:32:50,031 --> 01:32:53,200
Doesn't look at though Sane
really had Baszler troubled.

1813
01:32:53,267 --> 01:32:55,236
But it certainly got in Baszler's head.

1814
01:32:55,303 --> 01:32:57,805
[Mauro] Baszler usually
doesn't react like this,

1815
01:32:57,872 --> 01:33:01,475
as emotional as she has been
in this match against Kairi Sane

1816
01:33:01,542 --> 01:33:04,345
and now it's Baszler
sending Sane into the ropes.

1817
01:33:05,146 --> 01:33:08,883
Nice… move there, but a quick reversal.

1818
01:33:08,950 --> 01:33:13,588
And these two are just looking
to assert their dominance early.

1819
01:33:13,654 --> 01:33:17,525
And it's Kairi Sane
taking the fight to Shayna Baszler.

1820
01:33:19,894 --> 01:33:21,596
It's obvious to me, guys,

1821
01:33:21,662 --> 01:33:23,731
that Kairi Sane
is in Shayna Baszler's head.

1822
01:33:23,798 --> 01:33:26,601
[Nigel] There's no doubt about it,
a great start for Sane.

1823
01:33:26,667 --> 01:33:29,971
Not the start the champion wanted
and it could get worse.

1824
01:33:30,037 --> 01:33:31,539
[Percy] No!

1825
01:33:32,239 --> 01:33:34,108
[Mauro] Sane sailing through the air

1826
01:33:34,175 --> 01:33:35,543
and wiping out Baszler.

1827
01:33:35,610 --> 01:33:38,279
Again, though, the champion's advantage.

1828
01:33:38,346 --> 01:33:40,314
Sane knowing it, fully cognizant

1829
01:33:40,381 --> 01:33:42,984
quickly rolls Baszler back into the ring.

1830
01:33:45,419 --> 01:33:49,490
Champion cannot lose the title
via count-out,

1831
01:33:49,557 --> 01:33:51,625
so Kairi Sane fully aware of that.

1832
01:33:51,692 --> 01:33:52,760
Oh.

1833
01:33:53,427 --> 01:33:54,829
Or disqualification.

1834
01:33:55,396 --> 01:33:56,797
Kairi Sane now

1835
01:33:57,398 --> 01:33:58,766
picking up a head of steam.

1836
01:33:58,833 --> 01:34:01,702
Oh, wow, what a move by Shayna Baszler,

1837
01:34:01,769 --> 01:34:04,705
taking Sane's leg
right out from under her, Nigel.

1838
01:34:04,772 --> 01:34:08,809
[Nigel] Sane clattered hard
into the mat after that drop kick.

1839
01:34:09,643 --> 01:34:13,014
[Percy] This could be trouble
for Kairi Sane right here. Oh, no.

1840
01:34:14,682 --> 01:34:16,717
[Mauro] Baszler targeting and stomping

1841
01:34:16,784 --> 01:34:21,389
on the calf of the right leg
of Kairi Sane.

1842
01:34:21,455 --> 01:34:23,724
[Nigel] Picking apart the right knee.

1843
01:34:24,692 --> 01:34:26,460
[Mauro] You know, Baszler tweeted

1844
01:34:26,527 --> 01:34:28,929
wherever there are bodies
they all break the same.

1845
01:34:28,996 --> 01:34:31,032
And she would like nothing more

1846
01:34:31,098 --> 01:34:34,402
than to break
Kairi Sane's fighting spirit.

1847
01:34:35,569 --> 01:34:38,606
[Percy] Baszler got Kairi in the position
she can take her time,

1848
01:34:38,673 --> 01:34:41,208
be methodical
and pick the challenger apart.

1849
01:34:41,275 --> 01:34:44,178
[Mauro] Baszler running
the NXT Women's division like cardio

1850
01:34:44,245 --> 01:34:49,116
and both of these superstars
in premium physical condition.

1851
01:34:49,183 --> 01:34:52,353
And that is why they are vying
for the NXT Women's title.

1852
01:34:54,155 --> 01:34:56,157
[Nigel] Sane doing her best to fight.

1853
01:34:56,223 --> 01:34:58,292
Oh, no, she got caught hard

1854
01:34:58,359 --> 01:34:59,894
with a kick to the chest.

1855
01:34:59,960 --> 01:35:01,262
[Mauro] Oh!

1856
01:35:01,328 --> 01:35:05,433
And that knee again,
the target of Shayna Baszler,

1857
01:35:05,499 --> 01:35:07,968
the catch wrestling connoisseur.

1858
01:35:08,469 --> 01:35:11,172
Now the full mount
by the full mixed martial artist

1859
01:35:11,238 --> 01:35:13,307
and look how she's utilizing the knee,

1860
01:35:14,141 --> 01:35:16,811
bending that right knee
while dropping the ground

1861
01:35:16,877 --> 01:35:19,080
and pound on Kairi Sane.

1862
01:35:19,146 --> 01:35:22,583
[Nigel] Sane trying to get the knee up
to protect herself maybe.

1863
01:35:22,650 --> 01:35:25,753
[Mauro] Well, it didn't pay the dividends
she would have liked.

1864
01:35:27,188 --> 01:35:30,024
-[Percy] Oh.
-[Mauro] Oh, wow.

1865
01:35:30,091 --> 01:35:31,559
[Mauro] My God!

1866
01:35:31,625 --> 01:35:33,894
[Nigel] Torque to the medial
cruciate ligament.

1867
01:35:34,395 --> 01:35:36,430
[Percy] He's not supposed
to bend that way.

1868
01:35:37,298 --> 01:35:41,936
[Mauro] Baszler is twisting
the same shouting here in Brooklyn.

1869
01:35:42,002 --> 01:35:44,171
[Nigel] Sane needs to get her free leg

1870
01:35:44,238 --> 01:35:46,540
to stop some of the pressure on the--

1871
01:35:46,607 --> 01:35:48,876
-[Nigel] …oh, my Lord!
-[Mauro] My God.

1872
01:35:48,943 --> 01:35:51,011
[Nigel] Or a hand, just something.

1873
01:35:51,912 --> 01:35:53,748
[Percy] Baszler says Kairi…

1874
01:35:53,814 --> 01:35:55,549
[Mauro] Look at this, she's gonna…

1875
01:35:55,616 --> 01:35:56,884
[Percy] No, come on.

1876
01:35:56,951 --> 01:35:59,120
[Mauro] …break the toes, the ankle.

1877
01:35:59,186 --> 01:36:03,491
Shayna Baszler looking to do
serious damage to Kairi Sane.

1878
01:36:06,727 --> 01:36:10,397
How much more
can the Pirate Princess take?

1879
01:36:10,998 --> 01:36:13,901
She has been brutalized by Shayna Baszler.

1880
01:36:13,968 --> 01:36:15,269
[Percy] Baszler said she…

1881
01:36:15,970 --> 01:36:18,606
She said she's a different competitor now

1882
01:36:18,672 --> 01:36:21,842
and you can clearly see
how dangerous she's become.

1883
01:36:21,909 --> 01:36:24,111
[Mauro] And I wonder,
can the Sane of today

1884
01:36:24,178 --> 01:36:26,046
beat the Baszler of today?

1885
01:36:27,081 --> 01:36:30,050
That Mae Young Classic final
was last September.

1886
01:36:30,584 --> 01:36:33,087
Shayna Baszler has improved exponentially.

1887
01:36:33,587 --> 01:36:35,256
[Percy] Look at the mocking here.

1888
01:36:36,657 --> 01:36:38,893
[Nigel] This is a completely
different woman.

1889
01:36:42,363 --> 01:36:45,032
There are very few people
who can make that transition

1890
01:36:45,099 --> 01:36:48,602
from MMA or Wrestling
into sports entertainment.

1891
01:36:48,669 --> 01:36:52,373
You think about a Kurt Angle,
a Ken Shamrock.

1892
01:36:53,874 --> 01:36:55,910
[Percy] This could be over for Kairi Sane.

1893
01:36:55,976 --> 01:36:57,645
There's nothing she can accomplish

1894
01:36:57,711 --> 01:36:59,480
against Shayna Baszler on one leg.

1895
01:36:59,547 --> 01:37:03,117
[Mauro] Shayna Baszler
just toying with Kairi Sane,

1896
01:37:03,184 --> 01:37:04,785
and it shocks me to say that.

1897
01:37:05,319 --> 01:37:07,021
-[Mauro] But Kairi--
-[Percy] Okay!

1898
01:37:07,087 --> 01:37:08,923
[Mauro] …she may have just awokened

1899
01:37:08,989 --> 01:37:11,192
the beast inside Kairi Sane.

1900
01:37:11,258 --> 01:37:14,094
Kairi Sane channeling her inner bushido.

1901
01:37:15,129 --> 01:37:17,464
[Percy] If your body won't stay with you,

1902
01:37:17,531 --> 01:37:19,166
you have no chance.

1903
01:37:19,900 --> 01:37:22,036
[commentators] Wow.

1904
01:37:22,102 --> 01:37:24,271
[Mauro] Kairi Sane has transmuted her rage

1905
01:37:24,905 --> 01:37:26,774
into this offensive onslaught

1906
01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:29,877
on Shayna Baszler,
unloading lefts and rights.

1907
01:37:29,944 --> 01:37:33,147
Baszler desperately trying to block
this attack by Sane.

1908
01:37:33,914 --> 01:37:36,083
[Nigel] Is this perhaps
the killer instinct

1909
01:37:36,150 --> 01:37:38,919
that Shayna Baszler said Sane lacked?

1910
01:37:39,653 --> 01:37:41,789
[Mauro] Oh, plenty of killer instinct

1911
01:37:41,856 --> 01:37:43,791
on that spinning back fist.

1912
01:37:43,858 --> 01:37:44,758
[Percy] Whoa!

1913
01:37:44,825 --> 01:37:47,328
[Mauro] Rolling neckbreaker by Kairi Sane.

1914
01:37:47,862 --> 01:37:50,130
Sane steamrolling Shayna Baszler.

1915
01:37:53,167 --> 01:37:54,501
[Percy] Gotta keep it going,

1916
01:37:54,568 --> 01:37:57,504
Kairi has to find a way
to keep the pedal to the metal.

1917
01:37:57,571 --> 01:38:00,474
[Mauro] Kairi Sane has to utilize
adrenaline, Nigel.

1918
01:38:00,541 --> 01:38:02,376
She has to summon everything up.

1919
01:38:03,110 --> 01:38:05,412
[Nigel] She has to be feeling
a lot of pain now.

1920
01:38:05,479 --> 01:38:08,115
There was damage done
to Kairi Sane's knees.

1921
01:38:08,782 --> 01:38:11,252
[Percy] Sane has gotta fight
through this pain.

1922
01:38:11,318 --> 01:38:14,121
She's got to take it to that place.

1923
01:38:14,188 --> 01:38:17,024
She's got to match Shayna Baszler
fire for fire, here we go.

1924
01:38:17,091 --> 01:38:18,525
[Mauro] Sane feeling the pain

1925
01:38:18,592 --> 01:38:21,896
but bringing the pain
to Shayna Baszlerwith the sliding D.

1926
01:38:21,962 --> 01:38:23,197
And now the cover.

1927
01:38:23,264 --> 01:38:25,933
Kairi Sane looking to become
NXT Women's Champion

1928
01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:27,468
and Baszler escapes.

1929
01:38:27,534 --> 01:38:30,504
[Nigel] Interesting that Sane
elected to try a pinfall attempt

1930
01:38:30,571 --> 01:38:32,539
when normally, after that Sliding D,

1931
01:38:32,606 --> 01:38:36,210
she'll go straight to the top
to attempt the insane elbow.

1932
01:38:36,277 --> 01:38:39,146
Perhaps she realized
it was gonna take her longer to get up.

1933
01:38:39,213 --> 01:38:42,416
[Mauro] You wonder with that injured leg.
And I think that cost her.

1934
01:38:42,483 --> 01:38:44,818
Shayna Baszler able to counter
with the kick.

1935
01:38:44,885 --> 01:38:47,388
And now on that second turnbuckle,
clubbing forearms

1936
01:38:47,454 --> 01:38:49,323
by the NXT Women's Champion.

1937
01:38:49,390 --> 01:38:50,424
[Percy] Oh, no.

1938
01:38:50,491 --> 01:38:51,425
[wrestler grunting]

1939
01:38:51,492 --> 01:38:54,795
[Mauro] Superplex by Shayna Baszler!

1940
01:38:54,862 --> 01:38:56,931
As Sane crashes in a heap.

1941
01:38:58,699 --> 01:39:00,601
[Nigel] Look of desperation

1942
01:39:01,268 --> 01:39:03,671
on the face of Sane landing hard.

1943
01:39:05,406 --> 01:39:07,274
Look at the impact. Look at this,

1944
01:39:07,341 --> 01:39:11,312
Sane's heels drive into the mat
with the most momentum.

1945
01:39:11,378 --> 01:39:13,347
And that's going to apply more pressure

1946
01:39:13,414 --> 01:39:16,150
to the injured knees of Kairi Sane.

1947
01:39:20,621 --> 01:39:22,156
Any second now

1948
01:39:23,057 --> 01:39:26,894
if Baszler elects to attempt a kneebar.

1949
01:39:27,494 --> 01:39:31,765
[Mauro] What about this valiant effort
on display by Sane,

1950
01:39:31,832 --> 01:39:34,101
given the NXT Women's Champion,

1951
01:39:34,835 --> 01:39:36,770
as good as she's getting here

1952
01:39:36,837 --> 01:39:38,605
and the striking exchange.

1953
01:39:38,672 --> 01:39:41,275
And one would think
Baszler would have the advantage.

1954
01:39:43,344 --> 01:39:46,080
Baszler able to attack the lower limb--

1955
01:39:46,146 --> 01:39:46,981
[Percy] Oh!

1956
01:39:47,047 --> 01:39:49,116
[Mauro] …that knee strike and the cover.

1957
01:39:50,250 --> 01:39:52,019
And Shayna Baszler one count away

1958
01:39:52,086 --> 01:39:54,254
from retaining the NXT Women's title.

1959
01:39:58,559 --> 01:40:00,494
Baszler defended her crown

1960
01:40:00,561 --> 01:40:03,831
at NXT TakeOver Chicago II
against Nikki Cross,

1961
01:40:03,897 --> 01:40:07,468
who represents
a completely different threat

1962
01:40:07,534 --> 01:40:09,303
than someone like Kairi Sane, Nigel.

1963
01:40:09,370 --> 01:40:12,172
[Nigel] Two very different styles.
But that's the thing.

1964
01:40:12,239 --> 01:40:15,509
When you're a champion,
you have to be prepared for any style.

1965
01:40:17,211 --> 01:40:20,547
[Nigel] Looking here for that
kirifuda driver and couldn't get it.

1966
01:40:20,614 --> 01:40:23,150
[Mauro] Yeah, Sane able to distribute
her body weight.

1967
01:40:23,217 --> 01:40:25,619
-[Mauro] The interceptor!
-[Percy] Out of nowhere.

1968
01:40:25,686 --> 01:40:27,354
[Mauro] A big spear by Sane.

1969
01:40:27,421 --> 01:40:30,624
And, Percy, you said it best,
out of nowhere.

1970
01:40:30,691 --> 01:40:35,362
Sane able to spear
Shayna Baszler with the interceptor.

1971
01:40:35,429 --> 01:40:36,964
Now from the second turnbuckle!

1972
01:40:37,031 --> 01:40:39,400
Sane to the back,

1973
01:40:39,466 --> 01:40:41,735
insane elbow by Sane!

1974
01:40:42,469 --> 01:40:44,371
[Nigel] She's shaking her finger.

1975
01:40:44,438 --> 01:40:46,907
Sane says… Sane is going again.

1976
01:40:46,974 --> 01:40:47,908
[Percy] Here we go.

1977
01:40:47,975 --> 01:40:50,944
[Mauro] Why isn't she going for the cover
on that injured leg?

1978
01:40:51,011 --> 01:40:53,547
She wants to prove to Shayna Baszler

1979
01:40:53,614 --> 01:40:54,948
she has the killer instinct.

1980
01:40:55,015 --> 01:40:57,651
But Baszler rolls out of the ring.

1981
01:40:58,519 --> 01:41:00,921
[Percy] She was going
for the top rope this time.

1982
01:41:00,988 --> 01:41:02,923
[Mauro] She's out of harm's way.

1983
01:41:04,458 --> 01:41:07,895
Kairi Sane with the diving crossbody

1984
01:41:07,961 --> 01:41:11,031
wiping out the NXT Women's Champion!

1985
01:41:13,667 --> 01:41:16,203
[Nigel] What a move from the challenger!

1986
01:41:17,271 --> 01:41:18,672
Sane continues--

1987
01:41:18,739 --> 01:41:21,475
…pure adrenaline now fighting through.

1988
01:41:21,542 --> 01:41:24,211
[Mauro] …in trouble.
Sane from the top turnbuckle.

1989
01:41:24,278 --> 01:41:25,946
She's already delivered one,

1990
01:41:26,013 --> 01:41:28,849
make it another insane elbow!

1991
01:41:28,916 --> 01:41:31,318
[Percy] We could have
a champion right here, baby.

1992
01:41:31,385 --> 01:41:32,386
[Mauro] Oh, my God!

1993
01:41:32,453 --> 01:41:36,056
Baszler kicked out
just in the nick of time.

1994
01:41:36,123 --> 01:41:40,027
And the shock on Sane's face says it all.

1995
01:41:40,661 --> 01:41:43,630
[Percy] Check out Kairi Sane
going for it all right here.

1996
01:41:44,198 --> 01:41:47,868
High-impact maneuvers
one after the other after the other.

1997
01:41:47,935 --> 01:41:50,237
Another insane elbow to the heart.

1998
01:41:50,304 --> 01:41:52,106
Who doesn't have the killer instinct?

1999
01:41:52,172 --> 01:41:54,007
I think Shayna Baszler made a mistake

2000
01:41:54,074 --> 01:41:55,876
because Kairi Sane definitely has it.

2001
01:41:56,677 --> 01:41:59,847
[Nigel] That is the first time
in her NXT career

2002
01:41:59,913 --> 01:42:04,952
that anybody has kicked out
of the insane elbow, excuse me.

2003
01:42:05,886 --> 01:42:09,923
[Mauro] It doesn't appear
to have cost Kairi Sane anything.

2004
01:42:09,990 --> 01:42:11,058
Go for that anchor.

2005
01:42:11,725 --> 01:42:13,494
-[Percy] Oh!
-[Mauro] Quick reversal.

2006
01:42:13,560 --> 01:42:14,995
[Percy] No, no, no, no!

2007
01:42:15,996 --> 01:42:17,164
[Mauro] Kirifuda clutch!

2008
01:42:17,231 --> 01:42:19,166
Baszler with the kirifuda clutch!

2009
01:42:19,233 --> 01:42:21,268
Sane desperately trying
to get to the rope.

2010
01:42:22,069 --> 01:42:23,437
[Nigel] Sane flailing.

2011
01:42:23,504 --> 01:42:26,673
[Percy] It could be all over here
if she can't get to the rope.

2012
01:42:27,741 --> 01:42:29,143
Kairi Sane is in trouble.

2013
01:42:29,209 --> 01:42:30,611
[Mauro] Sane is so close.

2014
01:42:30,677 --> 01:42:32,479
[crowd cheering]

2015
01:42:32,546 --> 01:42:34,848
[Nigel] Fingertips of that hand drop.

2016
01:42:35,349 --> 01:42:36,884
[Mauro] Sane is fading, though.

2017
01:42:36,950 --> 01:42:38,318
Kairi Sane is fading!

2018
01:42:39,052 --> 01:42:40,687
She has the bottom rope!

2019
01:42:40,754 --> 01:42:43,056
Kairi Sane stays alive

2020
01:42:43,123 --> 01:42:45,692
in this NXT Women's Championship match.

2021
01:42:47,161 --> 01:42:49,096
Shayna Baszler knows it.

2022
01:42:49,163 --> 01:42:52,799
She knows she was so close
to retaining her title.

2023
01:42:53,667 --> 01:42:55,102
[Percy] But the damage's done.

2024
01:42:55,169 --> 01:42:58,906
Baszler milked every second of that count
before the referee had her break it.

2025
01:43:00,574 --> 01:43:04,945
[Mauro] NXT universe
fully behind Kairi Sane.

2026
01:43:09,516 --> 01:43:11,518
Baszler attacking that injured right leg.

2027
01:43:11,585 --> 01:43:13,287
Looking for the submission.

2028
01:43:13,353 --> 01:43:14,254
The heel hook.

2029
01:43:15,389 --> 01:43:17,891
And that is the injured leg, Nigel.

2030
01:43:19,726 --> 01:43:22,763
[Nigel] Applying pressure
to the cruciate ligaments of the knee.

2031
01:43:24,164 --> 01:43:25,599
Was damaged earlier.

2032
01:43:25,666 --> 01:43:28,168
[Mauro] How much punishment
can Sane absorb?

2033
01:43:29,570 --> 01:43:32,272
We have seen her fighting spirit

2034
01:43:33,173 --> 01:43:34,641
tested to the max.

2035
01:43:35,175 --> 01:43:36,043
[inaudible]

2036
01:43:36,109 --> 01:43:36,977
[Percy] Hold on!

2037
01:43:37,477 --> 01:43:40,581
[Mauro] Kairi Sane
with a beautiful reversal!

2038
01:43:40,647 --> 01:43:41,949
Looking for the anchor!

2039
01:43:43,317 --> 01:43:47,154
Now it's Baszler's turn
to be saved by that bottom rope.

2040
01:43:47,688 --> 01:43:49,389
[Nigel] Sane had the death lock on.

2041
01:43:49,957 --> 01:43:51,358
But with the injured knee,

2042
01:43:51,425 --> 01:43:54,161
she just couldn't drive to get the bridge.

2043
01:43:54,228 --> 01:43:55,929
[Mauro] Ultra competitive matchup--

2044
01:43:55,996 --> 01:43:56,830
[Percy] Oh, my.

2045
01:43:56,897 --> 01:43:58,966
[Mauro] …Sane using the ropes.

2046
01:43:59,032 --> 01:44:00,033
[Percy laughing]

2047
01:44:00,100 --> 01:44:03,136
[Mauro] Ideally has the count of five
before being disqualified.

2048
01:44:03,203 --> 01:44:04,805
Referee administering the count

2049
01:44:04,871 --> 01:44:07,174
and Sane breaks just in the nick of time.

2050
01:44:07,241 --> 01:44:08,642
[Percy] Kairi Sane realizes

2051
01:44:08,709 --> 01:44:11,311
if she wants to slow Baszler down
for just a second--

2052
01:44:11,378 --> 01:44:14,615
[Nigel] Look what Baszler did.
Baszler rolled back inside the ring.

2053
01:44:14,681 --> 01:44:16,483
That could be a big mistake.

2054
01:44:16,550 --> 01:44:21,288
[Mauro] Oh, wow, Sane…
Alabama slam on Shayna Baszler.

2055
01:44:21,822 --> 01:44:23,624
And once again,

2056
01:44:23,690 --> 01:44:27,461
Kairi Sane ascends to the top turnbuckle.

2057
01:44:28,528 --> 01:44:31,898
Looking for her third insane elbow!

2058
01:44:31,965 --> 01:44:32,799
[Percy] Oh, no!

2059
01:44:32,866 --> 01:44:35,102
[Mauro] Blocked by Baszler.

2060
01:44:35,168 --> 01:44:36,703
Immediately Baszler--

2061
01:44:36,770 --> 01:44:38,071
[inaudible]

2062
01:44:38,138 --> 01:44:39,306
[Percy] Wait!

2063
01:44:39,373 --> 01:44:41,742
-[crowd cheering]
-[bell ringing]

2064
01:44:41,808 --> 01:44:43,510
[Mauro] Mamma mia!

2065
01:44:45,012 --> 01:44:50,984
[Kayla] Your winner
and new NXT Women's Champion,

2066
01:44:51,051 --> 01:44:53,854
Kairi Sane!

2067
01:44:53,920 --> 01:44:57,324
[Mauro] And what an incredible
sequence to bring

2068
01:44:57,391 --> 01:45:02,262
about this dynamic
NXT Women's Championship match.

2069
01:45:02,896 --> 01:45:05,299
Baszler blocking the insane elbow,

2070
01:45:05,365 --> 01:45:08,235
immediately snatching the kirifuda clutch.

2071
01:45:08,769 --> 01:45:12,773
But instantly, Sane able to roll up,

2072
01:45:12,839 --> 01:45:14,641
Baszler's shoulders down,

2073
01:45:14,708 --> 01:45:19,680
Kairi Sane, the years of pain,
the years of sacrifice,

2074
01:45:19,746 --> 01:45:24,217
Kairi Sane, it all pays off
on this night in Brooklyn.

2075
01:45:24,284 --> 01:45:28,855
The Pirate Princess
is now the queen of NXT!

2076
01:45:28,922 --> 01:45:31,258
[victory music playing]

2077
01:45:39,599 --> 01:45:45,138
[Nigel] What an incredible
display of fortitude from Onna Kaizoku.

2078
01:45:46,006 --> 01:45:48,141
[Mauro] Sane is in a state of shock.

2079
01:45:48,208 --> 01:45:50,744
I don't think she can believe
what has just happened.

2080
01:45:50,811 --> 01:45:53,146
[Percy] I think the world
and all of Brooklyn,

2081
01:45:53,213 --> 01:45:54,715
everybody at Barclays Center is

2082
01:45:54,781 --> 01:45:57,451
because Shayna Baszler
had her dead to rites.

2083
01:45:57,517 --> 01:45:59,753
But the perseverance of Kairi Sane

2084
01:46:00,721 --> 01:46:03,523
comes to win the NXT Women's title
right here tonight.

2085
01:46:03,590 --> 01:46:06,259
[Nigel] Let's take a look
at exactly how she did it.

2086
01:46:06,326 --> 01:46:08,462
Sane got caught with the boots.

2087
01:46:09,563 --> 01:46:12,366
Baszler knew exactly
where she was going, but look,

2088
01:46:12,432 --> 01:46:16,136
it was the years of experience
of Kairi Sane

2089
01:46:16,203 --> 01:46:19,673
to know that if she got caught
in the kirifuda clutch,

2090
01:46:19,740 --> 01:46:21,641
there was one way out.

2091
01:46:22,142 --> 01:46:25,512
One way to reverse it
into a pinfall attempt.

2092
01:46:25,579 --> 01:46:26,613
She took it.

2093
01:46:26,680 --> 01:46:28,482
And she claimed her place

2094
01:46:28,548 --> 01:46:32,085
as the new NXT Women's Champion.

2095
01:46:32,152 --> 01:46:34,554
[Percy] Kairi Sane just got
her ultimate treasure.

2096
01:46:34,621 --> 01:46:36,623
[victory music continues]

2097
01:46:36,690 --> 01:46:38,558
[crowd cheering]

2098
01:46:40,994 --> 01:46:43,764
[Mauro] What a night
here at Barclays Center

2099
01:46:43,830 --> 01:46:46,800
and the emotion says it all.

2100
01:46:46,867 --> 01:46:49,703
This is what these superstars live for.

2101
01:46:49,770 --> 01:46:53,974
This is why they go to the gym
at the crack of dawn.

2102
01:46:54,040 --> 01:46:55,542
They work through the pain,

2103
01:46:55,609 --> 01:46:59,012
put in the long hours,
the long travel miles.

2104
01:46:59,079 --> 01:47:00,881
It's for moments like this!

2105
01:47:00,947 --> 01:47:03,683
A moment that Kairi Sane
will never forget,

2106
01:47:03,750 --> 01:47:07,587
because here at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn IV,

2107
01:47:07,654 --> 01:47:12,859
Kairi Sane has become
the new NXT Women's Champion!

2108
01:47:15,162 --> 01:47:17,097
What a book end to what has already been

2109
01:47:17,164 --> 01:47:20,367
a terrific NXT career beginning

2110
01:47:20,433 --> 01:47:22,302
with victory in the Mae Young Classic

2111
01:47:22,369 --> 01:47:23,670
culminating with this,

2112
01:47:23,737 --> 01:47:25,972
the biggest victory
of her career here tonight.

2113
01:47:26,039 --> 01:47:28,141
[crowd cheering]

2114
01:47:32,979 --> 01:47:35,215
[victory music continues]

2115
01:47:47,394 --> 01:47:49,229
[announcer] The moment has arrived.

2116
01:47:49,296 --> 01:47:52,499
This is NXT U.K.

2117
01:47:52,566 --> 01:47:56,069
[rock music playing]

2118
01:48:12,686 --> 01:48:18,892
[male voice] United Kingdom,
are you ready?

2119
01:48:18,959 --> 01:48:21,461
[crowd cheering]

2120
01:48:32,706 --> 01:48:34,274
[male voice 1] Carmella tapped.

2121
01:48:34,341 --> 01:48:36,509
Charlotte is going to SummerSlam.

2122
01:48:37,010 --> 01:48:38,979
It is now a triple threat match

2123
01:48:39,045 --> 01:48:42,282
for the smackdown Women's title
at SummerSlam.

2124
01:48:42,349 --> 01:48:44,951
[male voice 2] Looks like
Becky Lynch isn't too happy.

2125
01:48:45,018 --> 01:48:48,922
[male voice 1] And just like that,
mathematically the odds dwindle.

2126
01:48:48,989 --> 01:48:51,191
I'm ready to reclaim my throne.

2127
01:48:51,258 --> 01:48:54,728
Everything I have fought for
has led me to this moment.

2128
01:48:54,794 --> 01:48:56,997
[female voice] Mella is more money
than ever.

2129
01:48:57,063 --> 01:48:59,399
[male voice] Get your popcorn ready.

2130
01:48:59,466 --> 01:49:02,936
You add Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch
and Carmella to the equation,

2131
01:49:03,003 --> 01:49:04,304
it's going to get crazy.

2132
01:49:10,544 --> 01:49:13,280
♪ Where we land is where we fall ♪

2133
01:49:13,346 --> 01:49:17,250
[Mauro] You're listening
to "Made in America" by the Fever 333

2134
01:49:17,317 --> 01:49:19,252
from the album Made in America,

2135
01:49:19,319 --> 01:49:23,423
the NXT loud theme song
for NXT TakeOver Brooklyn

2136
01:49:23,490 --> 01:49:26,960
available now on iTunes and Spotify.

2137
01:49:27,027 --> 01:49:29,663
"Made in America".

2138
01:49:30,964 --> 01:49:34,301
[Nigel] Well, it's been an incredible
night of action here in NXT.

2139
01:49:34,367 --> 01:49:36,369
And after TakeOver Brooklyn tonight,

2140
01:49:36,436 --> 01:49:39,539
we'll hear from the man
whose vision created NXT,

2141
01:49:39,606 --> 01:49:43,310
WWE COO Triple H will give his take
on all tonight's matches.

2142
01:49:43,376 --> 01:49:46,947
It is an exclusive interview
live on Facebook live.

2143
01:49:48,214 --> 01:49:49,649
[Mauro] A man that has had

2144
01:49:49,716 --> 01:49:53,119
more than his fair share
of last man standing matches,

2145
01:49:53,186 --> 01:49:57,157
triple H and, yes,
the time has come for another one.

2146
01:49:57,223 --> 01:49:59,426
It was supposed to be
a triple threat match,

2147
01:49:59,492 --> 01:50:02,929
but Aleister Black was attacked
by a mystery assailant

2148
01:50:02,996 --> 01:50:06,066
and it's now going to be chapter IV

2149
01:50:06,132 --> 01:50:12,138
of this barbaric rivalry between
Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano.

2150
01:50:12,205 --> 01:50:14,874
The stakes have never been higher.

2151
01:50:14,941 --> 01:50:17,544
This one is for the NXT Championship.

2152
01:50:17,611 --> 01:50:23,049
All I can say is,
"Mamma Mia, here we go again".

2153
01:50:28,121 --> 01:50:29,756
[Gargano] Since day one…

2154
01:50:31,057 --> 01:50:32,258
my goal…

2155
01:50:33,560 --> 01:50:34,794
my dream…

2156
01:50:36,896 --> 01:50:38,098
my everything…

2157
01:50:40,333 --> 01:50:42,168
is to be the NXT Champion.

2158
01:50:50,677 --> 01:50:51,811
[silence]

2159
01:50:53,279 --> 01:50:55,281
[Ciampa] For you, Johnny Gargano,

2160
01:50:55,348 --> 01:50:57,083
hope is lost.

2161
01:50:57,884 --> 01:50:59,819
Faith is broken.

2162
01:51:00,353 --> 01:51:03,890
Your fairy tale, it's over.

2163
01:51:05,725 --> 01:51:08,995
[Gargano] In Chicago, all I saw was anger

2164
01:51:09,996 --> 01:51:12,899
and hatred and suffering.

2165
01:51:15,335 --> 01:51:16,770
That's why you won.

2166
01:51:17,570 --> 01:51:19,406
[Ciampa] After beating Johnny,

2167
01:51:19,472 --> 01:51:23,677
freaking wrestling
with my hands cuffed together,

2168
01:51:23,743 --> 01:51:27,080
damn straight, I knew
I was the number one contender.

2169
01:51:27,714 --> 01:51:34,120
Aleister, boy, you have something
that I want.

2170
01:51:34,187 --> 01:51:36,122
[Gargano] You know better than anyone

2171
01:51:36,189 --> 01:51:38,391
what the NXT Championship means to me.

2172
01:51:39,159 --> 01:51:40,493
Because even after Chicago,

2173
01:51:40,560 --> 01:51:43,496
you knew you could
twist the knife even more.

2174
01:51:44,397 --> 01:51:48,234
Johnny, just like you were ready
to replace me…

2175
01:51:49,035 --> 01:51:50,837
I knew I couldn't let you win.

2176
01:51:50,904 --> 01:51:54,107
[Mauro] Wait a minute. Johnny Gargano!

2177
01:51:54,174 --> 01:51:55,508
[Percy] Whoa!

2178
01:51:55,575 --> 01:51:57,577
Johnny Gargano, what the hell.

2179
01:51:57,644 --> 01:51:58,878
[Percy] He didn't mean.

2180
01:51:59,713 --> 01:52:00,980
[Mauro] Oh, my God!

2181
01:52:01,848 --> 01:52:03,550
I replaced you.

2182
01:52:03,616 --> 01:52:04,718
[Percy] No, no!

2183
01:52:04,784 --> 01:52:06,086
[Mauro] Oh, my God!

2184
01:52:06,152 --> 01:52:07,220
[bell ringing]

2185
01:52:07,287 --> 01:52:09,389
[Gargano] Tommaso Ciampa is NXT champion

2186
01:52:10,090 --> 01:52:11,224
because of me.

2187
01:52:15,061 --> 01:52:19,399
[Ciampa] This is my NXT now!

2188
01:52:19,466 --> 01:52:22,102
Never in a million years

2189
01:52:22,168 --> 01:52:27,741
did you think that Gargano
fairy tale ended like this.

2190
01:52:27,807 --> 01:52:29,676
[Gargano] This is not your NXT.

2191
01:52:29,742 --> 01:52:31,511
Not while I'm still breathing.

2192
01:52:31,578 --> 01:52:34,714
Johnny Gargano loses, I win.

2193
01:52:34,781 --> 01:52:37,517
The only reason he is NXT champion

2194
01:52:37,584 --> 01:52:39,319
is because of me!

2195
01:52:40,987 --> 01:52:42,755
[Aleister] I guess you're right.

2196
01:52:43,790 --> 01:52:46,326
The only reason he's NXT champion

2197
01:52:47,227 --> 01:52:50,063
is because of you.

2198
01:52:53,967 --> 01:52:56,836
[male voice] You are hell bent
on destroying each other.

2199
01:52:58,138 --> 01:53:00,807
So at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn,

2200
01:53:01,508 --> 01:53:04,210
the NXT Championship will now be decided

2201
01:53:04,944 --> 01:53:06,346
in a triple threat match.

2202
01:53:06,412 --> 01:53:08,481
[crowd cheering]

2203
01:53:10,583 --> 01:53:13,520
[male voice] Aleister Black
has sustained substantial injuries.

2204
01:53:13,586 --> 01:53:15,822
While Aleister is no longer standing,

2205
01:53:15,889 --> 01:53:17,090
two men are.

2206
01:53:17,157 --> 01:53:19,659
So in the main event
for the NXT Championship,

2207
01:53:19,726 --> 01:53:23,296
it will be Johnny Gargano
versus Tommaso Ciampa

2208
01:53:24,397 --> 01:53:26,132
in a last man standing match.

2209
01:53:26,900 --> 01:53:29,369
[Gargano] From an unsanctioned match
in New Orleans

2210
01:53:29,435 --> 01:53:31,237
to a street fight in Chicago,

2211
01:53:31,304 --> 01:53:34,140
have I given everything?

2212
01:53:35,308 --> 01:53:37,143
Not yet.

2213
01:53:37,210 --> 01:53:39,746
[Ciampa] Understand the real story here.

2214
01:53:39,813 --> 01:53:42,048
This isn't Johnny Gargano's fairy tale.

2215
01:53:42,115 --> 01:53:43,583
This is about me.

2216
01:53:43,650 --> 01:53:46,920
The greatest sports entertainer

2217
01:53:46,986 --> 01:53:49,722
of all time!

2218
01:53:49,789 --> 01:53:51,925
I've got one more shot
to achieve my dream.

2219
01:53:51,991 --> 01:53:53,726
Not just become NXT champion

2220
01:53:53,793 --> 01:53:55,495
but to stop Tommaso Ciampa.

2221
01:53:55,562 --> 01:53:58,698
This is my proof, TakeOver Brooklyn

2222
01:53:58,765 --> 01:54:01,100
will be my ultimate moment.

2223
01:54:01,167 --> 01:54:03,837
[Gargano] I will do whatever it takes
to make sure

2224
01:54:04,437 --> 01:54:07,006
Tommaso Ciampa does not leave Brooklyn

2225
01:54:07,073 --> 01:54:08,341
the NXT champion.

2226
01:54:13,346 --> 01:54:15,949
[crowd cheering]

2227
01:54:18,351 --> 01:54:19,819
[bell ringing]

2228
01:54:19,886 --> 01:54:21,754
[Kayla] The following contest

2229
01:54:21,821 --> 01:54:24,657
is a last man standing match.

2230
01:54:25,625 --> 01:54:30,530
And it is for the NXT Championship.

2231
01:54:30,597 --> 01:54:33,533
In this match, there are no pinfalls,

2232
01:54:33,600 --> 01:54:37,904
submissions, count-outs
or disqualifications.

2233
01:54:38,404 --> 01:54:40,073
The only way to win

2234
01:54:40,139 --> 01:54:42,609
is by incapacitating your opponent

2235
01:54:42,675 --> 01:54:45,144
until he cannot stand back up

2236
01:54:45,211 --> 01:54:48,214
before the referee's count of ten.

2237
01:54:48,281 --> 01:54:50,350

♪ This rebel heart ♪

2244
01:55:09,969 --> 01:55:13,439
[Mauro] I shudder to think
of the brutality we're about to witness.

2245
01:55:13,506 --> 01:55:16,309
If history is any indication,

2246
01:55:16,376 --> 01:55:19,479
this last man standing match
will not be for the feint of heart

2247
01:55:19,545 --> 01:55:22,915
as the Black Heart
and Rebel Heart renew hostilities.

2248
01:55:22,982 --> 01:55:25,251
And the stakes, well,
they've never been higher.

2249
01:55:25,318 --> 01:55:27,720
The most intense rivalry in NXT history

2250
01:55:27,787 --> 01:55:30,423
now involves the NXT Championship.

2251
01:55:30,490 --> 01:55:34,294
It doesn't get any bigger
or more personal than this.

2252
01:55:35,929 --> 01:55:39,098
[Nigel] Well, Mahatma Gandhi
said the enemy is fear.

2253
01:55:41,734 --> 01:55:43,036
If that's the case,

2254
01:55:43,102 --> 01:55:46,005
perhaps Gargano has created his own enemy.

2255
01:55:46,072 --> 01:55:48,374
Because even Gargano admitted it.

2256
01:55:48,441 --> 01:55:52,512
It was Gargano's interference
in the NXT Championship match

2257
01:55:52,578 --> 01:55:54,480
between Ciampa and Black

2258
01:55:54,547 --> 01:55:58,084
that gave Ciampa the opportunity
to beat Black for the title

2259
01:55:58,151 --> 01:56:02,689
and allow the era of a madman to begin.

2260
01:56:04,257 --> 01:56:06,926
[Mauro] It was here in Brooklyn,
at Barclays Center

2261
01:56:06,993 --> 01:56:09,896
that the Tag Team DIY began,

2262
01:56:09,963 --> 01:56:13,032
the team of Johnny Gargano
and Tommaso Ciampa.

2263
01:56:13,099 --> 01:56:15,335
And tonight Gargano says it will be

2264
01:56:15,401 --> 01:56:17,470
with the memory of DIY will die.

2265
01:56:18,171 --> 01:56:21,174
He has said he will give the NXT universe

2266
01:56:21,240 --> 01:56:23,977
everything he has tonight.

2267
01:56:27,947 --> 01:56:30,383
[boos]

2268
01:56:30,450 --> 01:56:32,452
[Mauro] Barclays Center has not been kind

2269
01:56:32,518 --> 01:56:37,323
to Johnny Gargano,
0-2 at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn.

2270
01:56:47,600 --> 01:56:49,869
[boos]

2271
01:57:08,621 --> 01:57:15,595
[crowd cheering]

2272
01:57:28,074 --> 01:57:30,643
[cheers and boos]

2273
01:58:04,844 --> 01:58:07,547
[boos]

2274
01:58:14,087 --> 01:58:17,523
[Kayla] Introducing the challenger

2275
01:58:17,590 --> 01:58:19,826
from Cleveland, Ohio

2276
01:58:19,892 --> 01:58:22,962
weighing in at 199 pounds,

2277
01:58:23,029 --> 01:58:26,098
Johnny Gargano!

2278
01:58:26,799 --> 01:58:29,569
[crowd cheering]

2279
01:58:31,871 --> 01:58:33,606
[Kayla] And his opponent,

2280
01:58:33,673 --> 01:58:35,808
from Milwaukee, Wisconsin,

2281
01:58:35,875 --> 01:58:38,444
weighing in at 210 pounds,

2282
01:58:38,511 --> 01:58:41,447
he is the NXT champ--

2283
01:58:41,514 --> 01:58:43,015
-[Mauro] Whoa!
-[bell ringing]

2284
01:58:43,082 --> 01:58:45,818
[Mauro] Johnny Gargano
attacking Tommaso Ciampa!

2285
01:58:46,986 --> 01:58:50,490
And Gargano who blames himself

2286
01:58:51,357 --> 01:58:57,096
for costing Aleister Black
the NXT Championship full of rage,

2287
01:58:57,163 --> 01:59:01,734
full of enmity and animosity
towards his former best friend.

2288
01:59:02,602 --> 01:59:06,038
[Nigel] I don't think there's any doubt,
everybody blames Johnny Gargano.

2289
01:59:06,105 --> 01:59:07,306
It was clearly his fault.

2290
01:59:07,373 --> 01:59:09,609
But can he make retribution for it?

2291
01:59:09,675 --> 01:59:11,277
[Percy] That's what it's about.

2292
01:59:11,344 --> 01:59:12,678
It's about the NXT title.

2293
01:59:12,745 --> 01:59:14,514
[Mauro] …Gargano dropping down,

2294
01:59:14,580 --> 01:59:16,415
left hands on Ciampa.

2295
01:59:16,482 --> 01:59:18,050
Again, last man standing match,

2296
01:59:18,117 --> 01:59:19,685
tell us the rules, Nigel.

2297
01:59:19,752 --> 01:59:22,088
[Nigel] No count-outs,
no disqualifications,

2298
01:59:22,155 --> 01:59:23,856
no pinfalls, no submissions.

2299
01:59:23,923 --> 01:59:25,691
The only way to win,

2300
01:59:25,758 --> 01:59:27,260
and it can happen anywhere,

2301
01:59:27,326 --> 01:59:29,262
anywhere in the world,

2302
01:59:30,062 --> 01:59:32,832
is to incapacitate your opponent

2303
01:59:32,899 --> 01:59:35,234
so they cannot answer a ten-count.

2304
01:59:38,271 --> 01:59:42,208
[Mauro] You can get involved
in the social media conversation,

2305
01:59:42,275 --> 01:59:44,677
#lastmanstanding.

2306
01:59:45,478 --> 01:59:49,115
Montague versus Capulet,
Yankees versus Red Sox,

2307
01:59:49,182 --> 01:59:50,483
Ali versus Frazier,

2308
01:59:50,550 --> 01:59:55,688
I don't know if any of those rivalries
have anything on Gargano and Ciampa.

2309
01:59:55,755 --> 01:59:59,058
Third straight TakeOver,
they are closing the show.

2310
01:59:59,125 --> 02:00:01,827
This time for the NXT Championship

2311
02:00:01,894 --> 02:00:05,831
as Gargano's back got the corner
of the ring steps.

2312
02:00:07,366 --> 02:00:10,269
[Percy] Ciampa said he's gonna die
for the NXT title tonight.

2313
02:00:10,336 --> 02:00:13,339
We'll find out if Johnny Gargano
is willing to do the same.

2314
02:00:13,406 --> 02:00:16,375
[Nigel] Let's hope neither
of those things happen.

2315
02:00:16,442 --> 02:00:19,212
But ultimately this is
a last man standing match,

2316
02:00:19,278 --> 02:00:21,214
so if you're thinking of a strategy,

2317
02:00:21,280 --> 02:00:23,716
perhaps breaking your opponent's leg.

2318
02:00:23,783 --> 02:00:25,818
Normally, I'd be joking when I say that.

2319
02:00:25,885 --> 02:00:29,021
But when you see what these men
have put each other through…

2320
02:00:29,088 --> 02:00:30,423
-[Mauro] Wow!
-[Percy] Oh!

2321
02:00:30,489 --> 02:00:32,592
[Mauro] And Gargano fires Ciampa

2322
02:00:32,658 --> 02:00:35,761
back first… into the barrier.

2323
02:00:37,430 --> 02:00:39,832
[Percy] Just can't believe
how much Johnny Gargano

2324
02:00:39,899 --> 02:00:42,702
has suffered and endured at the hands
of Tommaso Ciampa.

2325
02:00:42,768 --> 02:00:44,103
Being fired from his job,

2326
02:00:44,170 --> 02:00:46,939
almost losing his marriage
to Candice Lerae.

2327
02:00:47,006 --> 02:00:50,343
Being reinstated.
This man has been through it all.

2328
02:00:50,409 --> 02:00:53,112
Tommaso Ciampa has tried to tear
everything from Gargano.

2329
02:00:53,179 --> 02:00:56,949
[Mauro] Unsanctioned match
at NXT TakeOver New Orleans,

2330
02:00:57,016 --> 02:00:59,785
WrestleMania weekend
won by Johnny Gargano.

2331
02:00:59,852 --> 02:01:02,421
Street fight NXT TakeOver Chicago II

2332
02:01:02,488 --> 02:01:06,092
won by a handcuffed Tommaso Ciampa.

2333
02:01:06,158 --> 02:01:09,195
And now here, at TakeOver Brooklyn IV,

2334
02:01:09,262 --> 02:01:13,899
last man standing
for the NXT Championship.

2335
02:01:13,966 --> 02:01:16,769
[Nigel] We're going to see
brutality in this match,

2336
02:01:16,836 --> 02:01:20,139
the likes of which perhaps
we have never seen before.

2337
02:01:20,206 --> 02:01:21,907
And that's saying something.

2338
02:01:27,813 --> 02:01:30,082
[Mauro] Johnny Gargano wasting little time

2339
02:01:30,149 --> 02:01:32,551
in taking advantage of the rules.

2340
02:01:32,618 --> 02:01:35,788
The fact that there are no rules
in this last man standing

2341
02:01:35,855 --> 02:01:39,759
and oh, Gargano now exposing the concrete.

2342
02:01:39,825 --> 02:01:43,095
Just like we saw
Tommaso Ciampa do in the past.

2343
02:01:47,333 --> 02:01:50,169
It is obvious that Johnny Gargano

2344
02:01:50,236 --> 02:01:54,173
has gone to that dark place
in his rebel heart

2345
02:01:54,240 --> 02:01:58,678
fighting fire with fire
against the scourge of NXT,

2346
02:01:58,744 --> 02:01:59,845
Tommaso Ciampa.

2347
02:01:59,912 --> 02:02:02,048
And again Ciampa digging at the eyes…

2348
02:02:02,114 --> 02:02:02,948
[Percy] Come on!

2349
02:02:03,015 --> 02:02:04,283
[Mauro] …of Gargano!

2350
02:02:04,350 --> 02:02:06,318
The sadistic S.O.B. Ciampa

2351
02:02:06,385 --> 02:02:10,022
just willing to dig the eyes out
of Johnny Gargano.

2352
02:02:10,089 --> 02:02:12,591
[Nigel] Well, this is such
a dangerous match now.

2353
02:02:12,658 --> 02:02:14,760
It was supposed to be a triple threat,

2354
02:02:14,827 --> 02:02:18,664
before somebody attacked the
former champion Aleister Black.

2355
02:02:18,731 --> 02:02:19,699
[fans] Oh!

2356
02:02:19,765 --> 02:02:20,633
[Nigel] But now--

2357
02:02:20,700 --> 02:02:21,767
[Gargano grunting]

2358
02:02:21,834 --> 02:02:24,970
[Mauro] And while Aleister Black
is watching with vested interest,

2359
02:02:25,037 --> 02:02:27,807
this is all about Gargano and Ciampa.

2360
02:02:27,873 --> 02:02:28,941
Ciampa!

2361
02:02:30,276 --> 02:02:34,146
And that was Ciampa
driven back first into the ring post.

2362
02:02:35,081 --> 02:02:38,184
This is not about
catch as catch can wrestling.

2363
02:02:38,250 --> 02:02:39,251
This is about--

2364
02:02:39,318 --> 02:02:40,186
[Percy] Oh!

2365
02:02:40,820 --> 02:02:45,491
[Mauro] …this is about Johnny Gargano
throwing caution to the wind!

2366
02:02:45,558 --> 02:02:47,827
[Percy] That's what it's about
right here, baby.

2367
02:02:48,694 --> 02:02:49,995
[Nigel] This is gonna be--

2368
02:02:50,062 --> 02:02:51,263
[Mauro] Oh, no!

2369
02:02:51,330 --> 02:02:53,933
And Gargano just sent Ciampa

2370
02:02:53,999 --> 02:02:56,268
into our broadcast location!

2371
02:02:58,037 --> 02:03:03,042
And again, Johnny Gargano
taking advantage of the fact

2372
02:03:03,109 --> 02:03:05,144
that this is last man standing.

2373
02:03:05,211 --> 02:03:07,847
He wants to be that man.

2374
02:03:07,913 --> 02:03:11,183
He wants to be the man in NXT.

2375
02:03:12,151 --> 02:03:14,186
[crowd cheering]

2376
02:03:15,054 --> 02:03:17,490
[Mauro] And right now it is Johnny Gargano

2377
02:03:17,556 --> 02:03:20,126
standing on the broadcast table.

2378
02:03:24,497 --> 02:03:26,932
[Nigel] This is not going to end well.

2379
02:03:26,999 --> 02:03:29,769
[Mauro] Ciampa desperately trying
to fend off.

2380
02:03:29,835 --> 02:03:31,103
[Percy] No, no, no!

2381
02:03:32,204 --> 02:03:33,539
[Mauro] Oh, my God!

2382
02:03:33,606 --> 02:03:35,608
Mamma mia!

2383
02:03:36,242 --> 02:03:39,912
Right through the table!

2384
02:03:42,815 --> 02:03:44,884
[fans chanting]

2385
02:03:47,853 --> 02:03:51,123
[Mauro] Referee is administering
the ten-count.

2386
02:03:52,358 --> 02:03:54,593
The carnage on display.

2387
02:03:55,161 --> 02:03:56,462
[Percy] Ciampa may be right

2388
02:03:56,529 --> 02:03:58,998
and the Gargano fairy tale
may be over right here.

2389
02:03:59,064 --> 02:04:01,567
[Mauro] I cannot believe that Gargano

2390
02:04:01,634 --> 02:04:03,736
is going to be able to get up

2391
02:04:03,803 --> 02:04:06,639
after being driven through the table

2392
02:04:06,705 --> 02:04:09,675
by a Ciampa air-raid crash.

2393
02:04:10,309 --> 02:04:13,746
But he is up,
a testament to Johnny Gargano.

2394
02:04:14,447 --> 02:04:17,383
And this special DNA that comprises

2395
02:04:17,450 --> 02:04:20,219
this cold-hearted soul of NXT.

2396
02:04:20,286 --> 02:04:22,822
[Nigel] Absolutely incredible fortitude,

2397
02:04:22,888 --> 02:04:27,893
a testament to how much hatred, vitriol

2398
02:04:27,960 --> 02:04:30,229
there is between
both of these competitors.

2399
02:04:31,597 --> 02:04:34,133
[Mauro] The enmity that exists

2400
02:04:34,200 --> 02:04:37,236
between these two former best friends

2401
02:04:37,736 --> 02:04:39,538
cannot be measured.

2402
02:04:39,605 --> 02:04:42,775
[Nigel] Ciampa with the chair,
will he have the chance to use it?

2403
02:04:42,842 --> 02:04:45,044
[Mauro] And remember the chair is legal

2404
02:04:45,911 --> 02:04:47,913
in this last man standing match.

2405
02:04:47,980 --> 02:04:50,516
And Ciampa booting Gargano in the face

2406
02:04:50,583 --> 02:04:53,285
as Gargano was reaching for the chair.

2407
02:04:57,223 --> 02:04:59,491
[crowd cheering]

2408
02:05:03,062 --> 02:05:04,230
[Mauro] Ciampa…

2409
02:05:04,296 --> 02:05:06,532
Oh, and the running knee strike

2410
02:05:06,599 --> 02:05:09,268
to the side of the face of Johnny Gargano

2411
02:05:09,335 --> 02:05:11,704
wanting to shatter Gargano's cheekbone.

2412
02:05:12,438 --> 02:05:14,173
We're not done by a long shot!

2413
02:05:15,441 --> 02:05:17,943
[Mauro] And an ominous message
from Ciampa.

2414
02:05:18,010 --> 02:05:18,978
[Percy] Oh, no!

2415
02:05:25,484 --> 02:05:26,318
[Mauro] Ciamp--

2416
02:05:27,853 --> 02:05:29,421
Ciampa referring himself

2417
02:05:29,488 --> 02:05:33,392
to the greatest
sports entertainer of all time.

2418
02:05:33,459 --> 02:05:38,197
There is still doubt he is the most
dangerous man in NXT.

2419
02:05:38,264 --> 02:05:39,932
And… oh, no.

2420
02:05:42,501 --> 02:05:45,771
[Nigel] And these men
used to be friends, best of friends.

2421
02:05:45,838 --> 02:05:47,072
[Mauro] Oh!

2422
02:05:47,139 --> 02:05:48,140
[Percy] My God!

2423
02:05:48,207 --> 02:05:49,742
[Mauro] Gargano using the chair

2424
02:05:49,808 --> 02:05:51,810
to way lay Tommaso Ciampa

2425
02:05:51,877 --> 02:05:53,746
on that injured leg.

2426
02:05:55,514 --> 02:05:58,717
The brace, Ciampa still wearing the brace.

2427
02:05:58,784 --> 02:06:03,422
And there Gargano using the chair
as a weapon of destruction.

2428
02:06:03,489 --> 02:06:06,191
[Percy] Gargano's moment,
not just to become champion,

2429
02:06:06,258 --> 02:06:09,528
but to finally put an end
and put a stop to Tommaso Ciampa.

2430
02:06:11,263 --> 02:06:12,197
Oh!

2431
02:06:14,166 --> 02:06:17,303
[Mauro] The sick thud reverberating
throughout the Barclays Center

2432
02:06:17,369 --> 02:06:18,604
here in Brooklyn.

2433
02:06:18,671 --> 02:06:21,173
[Nigel] This is what Ciampa does so well,

2434
02:06:21,240 --> 02:06:23,208
begging for mercy.

2435
02:06:23,275 --> 02:06:24,376
[Mauro] Wow!

2436
02:06:24,910 --> 02:06:28,614
Gargano driving the chair
into the mid section of Ciampa.

2437
02:06:28,681 --> 02:06:31,417
[Percy] He'll get no mercy
from Johnny Gargano tonight.

2438
02:06:31,483 --> 02:06:33,552
[Mauro] Referee administering the count.

2439
02:06:33,619 --> 02:06:37,156
Ciampa has until the count of ten
to get back up to his feet.

2440
02:06:37,890 --> 02:06:39,858
Injured wheel and all.

2441
02:06:46,966 --> 02:06:47,900
[Nigel] Hold on.

2442
02:06:48,734 --> 02:06:50,502
Gargano's intention clear.

2443
02:06:50,569 --> 02:06:52,571
[Mauro] Gargano looking for the lawn dart.

2444
02:06:52,638 --> 02:06:55,541
Instead Ciampa counters it
into the sleeper hold.

2445
02:06:56,308 --> 02:06:59,979
And a great move by Ciampa
if he puts Gargano to sleep.

2446
02:07:00,045 --> 02:07:03,015
He's not going to be able
to get up in the count of ten.

2447
02:07:03,082 --> 02:07:05,050
He's not gonna be counting sheep either.

2448
02:07:05,117 --> 02:07:06,952
He will be night-night.

2449
02:07:08,153 --> 02:07:10,723
[Nigel] Pressure of the forearm
on the carotid artery.

2450
02:07:10,789 --> 02:07:13,025
He can use the rope as much as he wants.

2451
02:07:13,092 --> 02:07:15,861
[Mauro] Ciampa using that bottom rope
for added leverage.

2452
02:07:15,928 --> 02:07:17,563
Gargano beginning to fade.

2453
02:07:18,397 --> 02:07:19,231
[grunting]

2454
02:07:20,733 --> 02:07:22,134
Fairy tale's dead.

2455
02:07:22,901 --> 02:07:26,772
[Mauro] And again, Gargano
looking to that bottom rope,

2456
02:07:26,839 --> 02:07:29,074
but there will be no break.

2457
02:07:29,141 --> 02:07:29,975
[Percy] No, no.

2458
02:07:30,042 --> 02:07:32,578
[Mauro] I mean, this is all about
last man standing.

2459
02:07:32,644 --> 02:07:34,480
[Percy] No count-outs, no submissions.

2460
02:07:34,980 --> 02:07:37,182
[Nigel] Not sure if Ciampa

2461
02:07:37,249 --> 02:07:40,119
has that forearm
far enough underneath the jaw.

2462
02:07:40,819 --> 02:07:42,421
Now he's applying more pressure

2463
02:07:44,189 --> 02:07:46,992
to cut off
that carotid artery to the brain.

2464
02:07:47,059 --> 02:07:49,428
[Mauro] Gargano just trying
to catch his breath.

2465
02:07:50,429 --> 02:07:51,363
[Nigel] Is he out?

2466
02:07:51,430 --> 02:07:52,564
Is Gargano out?

2467
02:07:52,631 --> 02:07:54,533
[Mauro] Referee's up to a count of two.

2468
02:07:55,934 --> 02:07:57,569
Gargano barely stirring.

2469
02:07:57,636 --> 02:07:58,737
Four.

2470
02:07:58,804 --> 02:08:02,441
[Percy] Bad news written all over it.
Ciampa has Gargano where he wants.

2471
02:08:04,476 --> 02:08:06,712
[Nigel] When he gets up,
Ciampa is there again.

2472
02:08:07,746 --> 02:08:09,682
[boos]

2473
02:08:10,315 --> 02:08:11,817
[Nigel] And that's in deep now.

2474
02:08:11,884 --> 02:08:13,385
Right underneath the jaw.

2475
02:08:14,953 --> 02:08:20,492
[Mauro] And Gargano again
in the clutches of the Ciampa sleeper.

2476
02:08:22,628 --> 02:08:24,930
[fans chanting]

2477
02:08:28,534 --> 02:08:31,003
[Mauro] Ciampa wanting to subject Gargano

2478
02:08:31,070 --> 02:08:33,138
to an ignominious fate.

2479
02:08:33,639 --> 02:08:37,242
He wants to… render him unconscious

2480
02:08:38,210 --> 02:08:41,680
and walk out of Brooklyn
the last man standing

2481
02:08:41,747 --> 02:08:43,715
and still NXT champion.

2482
02:08:43,782 --> 02:08:46,485
[Nigel] Look at Gargano's legs, though.
They are moving.

2483
02:08:46,552 --> 02:08:47,886
And if they are moving,

2484
02:08:47,953 --> 02:08:50,355
then Ciampa doesn't have
that hold applied enough.

2485
02:08:50,856 --> 02:08:53,325
[Mauro] Ciampa already
wearing vestiges of battle.

2486
02:08:55,561 --> 02:08:58,664
As a brutal start to this,

2487
02:08:58,731 --> 02:09:01,733
the main event
at NXT TakeOver Brooklyn IV,

2488
02:09:01,800 --> 02:09:03,736
what has been a memorable night

2489
02:09:03,802 --> 02:09:07,806
culminating with this intense rivalry.

2490
02:09:07,873 --> 02:09:09,942
[Nigel] Look at that.
Just lifting Gargano.

2491
02:09:10,442 --> 02:09:12,177
[Mauro] The fact Gargano's standing

2492
02:09:12,244 --> 02:09:14,446
after that air-raid crash
through the table--

2493
02:09:14,513 --> 02:09:15,614
[Nigel] Wait a second!

2494
02:09:15,681 --> 02:09:17,549
[Mauro] …Gargano with the Lawn Dart,

2495
02:09:18,150 --> 02:09:22,488
sending Ciampa face first
into the chair in the corner!

2496
02:09:22,554 --> 02:09:26,258
And maybe it's going to be
Ciampa whose lights go out.

2497
02:09:26,325 --> 02:09:29,862
[Percy] It is unreal
how much these two are willing to go

2498
02:09:29,928 --> 02:09:31,130
to tear each other apart.

2499
02:09:31,196 --> 02:09:32,664
[Mauro] And the question is,

2500
02:09:32,731 --> 02:09:36,668
how much more can they do to one another?

2501
02:09:36,735 --> 02:09:39,004
[Nigel] It's incredible
to answer that question.

2502
02:09:39,071 --> 02:09:40,506
Think back. What have we seen?

2503
02:09:40,572 --> 02:09:41,840
The referee up to six.

2504
02:09:42,875 --> 02:09:46,278
[Mauro] Oh, Ciampa was up momentarily,
broke the count.

2505
02:09:48,180 --> 02:09:51,283
Johnny Gargano foraging at ringside.

2506
02:09:51,350 --> 02:09:52,484
[Percy] Look at this.

2507
02:09:52,551 --> 02:09:54,186
Face first.

2508
02:09:54,253 --> 02:09:57,756
Gargano planting Ciampa
into the stairs in the corner here.

2509
02:09:57,823 --> 02:10:00,159
[Mauro] Gargano introducing a table,

2510
02:10:00,225 --> 02:10:04,062
about to set the table
for more carnage in Brooklyn.

2511
02:10:04,863 --> 02:10:07,466
[Nigel] This is not
the Johnny Gargano that I knew.

2512
02:10:09,401 --> 02:10:11,470
This is no longer Johnny wrestling.

2513
02:10:12,371 --> 02:10:15,841
This is a bitter man, a vengeful man.

2514
02:10:15,908 --> 02:10:18,177
[Percy] Exactly. You heard his wife say

2515
02:10:18,243 --> 02:10:20,112
this was not the man she married.

2516
02:10:23,982 --> 02:10:25,384
[Mauro] Johnny Gargano…

2517
02:10:26,385 --> 02:10:29,588
attempting to-- what is he going to do?
Stack these tables?

2518
02:10:34,560 --> 02:10:38,130
The venom enveloping the visage
of Johnny Gargano,

2519
02:10:38,197 --> 02:10:41,266
something I've never seen
and now that smile,

2520
02:10:41,333 --> 02:10:43,168
as if to say you're not going to like

2521
02:10:43,235 --> 02:10:45,637
what I'm about to do to you,
Tommaso Ciampa.

2522
02:10:45,704 --> 02:10:48,740
But it's Ciampa
trying to stave off the attack.

2523
02:10:48,807 --> 02:10:51,510
Gargano coming back
with a series of left hands.

2524
02:10:55,380 --> 02:10:57,683
[Nigel] Gargano's intention clear again.

2525
02:10:57,749 --> 02:10:59,618
[Mauro] Gargano wants to suplex Ciampa

2526
02:10:59,685 --> 02:11:02,187
out of the ring and through the tables.

2527
02:11:02,254 --> 02:11:08,460
Ciampa doing his damnedest
to avoid that painful fate.

2528
02:11:08,527 --> 02:11:11,029
[Nigel] Well, there's two tables
back to back

2529
02:11:11,096 --> 02:11:12,731
which means that's much harder,

2530
02:11:12,798 --> 02:11:15,434
far more impact
when you go through those tables.

2531
02:11:15,500 --> 02:11:16,735
[Mauro] …by Ciampa.

2532
02:11:16,802 --> 02:11:20,305
German suplex by the NXT champion.

2533
02:11:22,074 --> 02:11:24,776
[Nigel] Gargano stunned,
reaching for the ropes.

2534
02:11:25,277 --> 02:11:26,278
Can't hold them.

2535
02:11:26,345 --> 02:11:30,382
[Mauro] Say what you will
about Tommaso Ciampa and his behavior.

2536
02:11:30,449 --> 02:11:33,652
He is a master technician
in the squared circle.

2537
02:11:33,719 --> 02:11:35,187
[Nigel] And he is a winner.

2538
02:11:35,254 --> 02:11:39,024
And as you heard earlier,
history is written by the winners.

2539
02:11:39,091 --> 02:11:41,360
[Mauro] Oh, arm drag German suplex

2540
02:11:41,426 --> 02:11:44,396
completing the hat trick
on Johnny Gargano.

2541
02:11:44,463 --> 02:11:47,266
And Gargano's neck is worse for wear.

2542
02:11:47,332 --> 02:11:50,168
[Nigel] And now Gargano is prone

2543
02:11:50,235 --> 02:11:54,106
and at risk of going
through the tables that he set up.

2544
02:11:54,172 --> 02:11:56,008
[Percy] There's no padding down there.

2545
02:11:56,074 --> 02:11:58,844
That's exposed concrete
underneath those tables.

2546
02:11:58,911 --> 02:12:00,512
[Mauro] The knee with the brace.

2547
02:12:01,146 --> 02:12:04,182
And Tommaso Ciampa wiping out Gargano,

2548
02:12:04,249 --> 02:12:08,787
the vitriol that each of these superstars
feels for the other.

2549
02:12:08,854 --> 02:12:11,223
The vitriol that courses
through their veins

2550
02:12:11,290 --> 02:12:15,227
has powered this ultimate rivalry.

2551
02:12:15,294 --> 02:12:18,630
And now Ciampa
with the steel chair to the back.

2552
02:12:22,200 --> 02:12:24,403
[Nigel] This is going to be hard to watch.

2553
02:12:25,037 --> 02:12:27,406
[Mauro] It already is hard to watch.

2554
02:12:27,472 --> 02:12:30,275
[Nigel] I can't imagine
how it feels to endure.

2555
02:12:32,544 --> 02:12:34,946
[Mauro] Ciampa imploring Gargano
to stay down.

2556
02:12:36,982 --> 02:12:38,917
[fans shouting]

2557
02:12:38,984 --> 02:12:42,387
[Mauro] Ciampa has a better chance
of being struck by lightning

2558
02:12:42,454 --> 02:12:45,457
than to have Johnny Gargano capitulate.

2559
02:12:47,893 --> 02:12:48,894
One.

2560
02:12:50,996 --> 02:12:51,830
Two.

2561
02:12:53,899 --> 02:12:58,236
[Mauro] An uneasy feeling
enveloping the Barclays Center

2562
02:12:58,303 --> 02:12:59,237
here in Brooklyn.

2563
02:12:59,304 --> 02:13:03,709
NXT universe, a portion
trying to rally Johnny Gargano.

2564
02:13:03,775 --> 02:13:06,678
Oh, project Ciampa!

2565
02:13:09,047 --> 02:13:10,749
Tommaso Ciampa!

2566
02:13:10,816 --> 02:13:12,150
[Percy] Come on!

2567
02:13:12,217 --> 02:13:14,519
[Mauro] Make it two in a row!

2568
02:13:16,588 --> 02:13:19,891
He's already completed the driver
and the German suplexes.

2569
02:13:19,958 --> 02:13:24,663
Will he be able to complete
the trio of project Ciampa?

2570
02:13:24,730 --> 02:13:26,064
He does.

2571
02:13:26,131 --> 02:13:28,533
And how much more can Gargano sustain?

2572
02:13:28,600 --> 02:13:30,035
[Nigel] This has got to be it.

2573
02:13:30,102 --> 02:13:32,571
[Percy] This goes to show you
how deep the hatred

2574
02:13:32,637 --> 02:13:34,473
is seated in Tommaso Ciampa.

2575
02:13:34,539 --> 02:13:36,074
[Mauro] Referee is at one.

2576
02:13:36,141 --> 02:13:37,976
And Ciampa is going to take a seat.

2577
02:13:40,045 --> 02:13:40,912
Three.

2578
02:13:40,979 --> 02:13:45,250
[Mauro] And the count of the referee,
music to the ears of Tommaso Ciampa.

2579
02:13:46,618 --> 02:13:47,953
Five!

2580
02:13:48,019 --> 02:13:50,188
[Nigel] Gargano barely moving at five.

2581
02:13:50,255 --> 02:13:51,089
Six.

2582
02:13:51,156 --> 02:13:53,058
[Percy] How can he have anything left?

2583
02:13:53,692 --> 02:13:55,727
[Mauro] Referee is at the count of seven.

2584
02:13:56,795 --> 02:13:57,996
Eight!

2585
02:13:58,063 --> 02:14:00,665
[Mauro] I don't know if Gargano
is gonna be able to--

2586
02:14:00,732 --> 02:14:04,403
No, Johnny Gargano superkick to Ciampa!

2587
02:14:04,469 --> 02:14:05,871
But at what cost?

2588
02:14:10,609 --> 02:14:13,645
[Nigel] Where did Gargano
find that energy?

2589
02:14:13,712 --> 02:14:17,549
[Mauro] Was that Gargano's last stand
in this last man standing match?

2590
02:14:17,616 --> 02:14:20,385
[Percy] Just look at all the punishment,
all the abuse.

2591
02:14:20,452 --> 02:14:22,654
And that was for the third time.

2592
02:14:23,255 --> 02:14:25,824
[Mauro] The powerbomb
into the double knees,

2593
02:14:27,058 --> 02:14:30,095
destroying Johnny Gargano's back,

2594
02:14:30,162 --> 02:14:35,333
taking away his foundation,
the foundation he needs to stand, Nigel.

2595
02:14:35,400 --> 02:14:38,737
[Nigel] You can't win this match
if you can't stand

2596
02:14:38,804 --> 02:14:42,074
is the entire purpose of this match.

2597
02:14:42,140 --> 02:14:44,443
Both superstars now groggy.

2598
02:14:45,210 --> 02:14:47,112
[Mauro] And yet somehow Johnny Gargano

2599
02:14:47,179 --> 02:14:50,382
fires back with the left hand
on Tommaso Ciampa.

2600
02:14:51,650 --> 02:14:53,085
It is a testament

2601
02:14:53,151 --> 02:14:58,323
to what makes these two superstars

2602
02:14:58,390 --> 02:15:00,959
two of the best on the planet.

2603
02:15:01,026 --> 02:15:03,862
The depths they are willing to go.

2604
02:15:05,130 --> 02:15:08,300
[Nigel] Both these men
are landing punches.

2605
02:15:08,366 --> 02:15:11,269
[Percy] I have no idea
how either one is still standing.

2606
02:15:11,336 --> 02:15:14,106
[Mauro] And to think Tommaso Ciampa

2607
02:15:14,172 --> 02:15:16,875
was a part of Johnny Gargano's wedding.

2608
02:15:17,776 --> 02:15:20,278
They were former NXT Tag Team champions.

2609
02:15:24,783 --> 02:15:26,151
Oh, the roll-up.

2610
02:15:26,218 --> 02:15:28,720
And the kick by Johnny Gargano.

2611
02:15:28,787 --> 02:15:30,455
But Ciampa is the one on his feet.

2612
02:15:30,522 --> 02:15:32,991
Gargano back up
to a vertical base momentarily.

2613
02:15:33,058 --> 02:15:34,125
Now on the apron.

2614
02:15:35,160 --> 02:15:36,361
[crowd] Oh!

2615
02:15:36,428 --> 02:15:39,664
[Mauro] Switch spear intercepted
by the kick from Ciampa.

2616
02:15:39,731 --> 02:15:42,534
Ciampa looking for that fairy tale ending!

2617
02:15:42,601 --> 02:15:44,603
Oh, reverse roll-up by Gargano.

2618
02:15:45,170 --> 02:15:48,807
Oh, step-up enziguri by Johnny Gargano.

2619
02:15:50,175 --> 02:15:52,377
And the adrenaline
seems to be fueling Gargano.

2620
02:15:53,311 --> 02:15:54,146
[Percy] Oh!

2621
02:15:54,212 --> 02:15:55,780
[Mauro] Another German suplex.

2622
02:15:55,847 --> 02:15:59,384
It's incredible what we're witnessing
here in Brooklyn.

2623
02:15:59,451 --> 02:16:01,119
Gargano's turn!

2624
02:16:01,720 --> 02:16:03,889
[Percy] This is just sheer rage.

2625
02:16:04,856 --> 02:16:06,324
[Nigel] I have no words.

2626
02:16:07,292 --> 02:16:10,228
[Mauro] Where there is a will,
there is a way.

2627
02:16:10,295 --> 02:16:15,200
And no one can count out
either Ciampa or Gargano,

2628
02:16:15,267 --> 02:16:17,869
who are now both in a supine position.

2629
02:16:17,936 --> 02:16:19,037
One.

2630
02:16:20,405 --> 02:16:21,406
[Nigel] What?

2631
02:16:21,473 --> 02:16:22,507
[Percy] Look at that.

2632
02:16:22,574 --> 02:16:24,743
[Nigel] They are up at one!

2633
02:16:27,679 --> 02:16:29,614
What is fueling these men?

2634
02:16:29,681 --> 02:16:33,385
[Mauro] It is obvious,
not all superheroes wear capes.

2635
02:16:33,451 --> 02:16:36,421
It is incredible
what we are seeing here tonight

2636
02:16:36,488 --> 02:16:39,491
in this last man standing match
between Gargano and Ciampa.

2637
02:16:39,558 --> 02:16:41,159
Ciampa with a running knee.

2638
02:16:41,226 --> 02:16:43,261
There's a superkick by Gargano.

2639
02:16:43,328 --> 02:16:45,230
They are still both on their feet.

2640
02:16:46,097 --> 02:16:47,132
Wow!

2641
02:16:47,199 --> 02:16:49,734
[crowd cheering]

2642
02:16:50,268 --> 02:16:51,169
One.

2643
02:16:53,138 --> 02:16:54,005
Two.

2644
02:16:56,708 --> 02:16:57,642
Three.

2645
02:16:59,578 --> 02:17:00,679
Four.

2646
02:17:00,745 --> 02:17:03,114
[Mauro] The referee is halfway

2647
02:17:03,181 --> 02:17:05,350
to the count of ten.

2648
02:17:05,417 --> 02:17:06,251
Six.

2649
02:17:07,586 --> 02:17:09,020
[Nigel] Ciampa stands first.

2650
02:17:09,087 --> 02:17:11,323
[Mauro] Ciampa getting to his feet first,

2651
02:17:11,823 --> 02:17:15,694
the reigning NXT champion
now retreating out of the ring.

2652
02:17:15,760 --> 02:17:16,595
[Nigel] Nine!

2653
02:17:17,128 --> 02:17:19,531
[Mauro] Whoa, and Gargano
just beat the count.

2654
02:17:21,099 --> 02:17:24,469
[Nigel] This is beyond guts,
beyond determination.

2655
02:17:24,970 --> 02:17:26,972
This is something super human.

2656
02:17:27,038 --> 02:17:29,140
[Mauro] Oh, superkick by Gargano!

2657
02:17:30,175 --> 02:17:31,343
And again, Gargano--

2658
02:17:31,409 --> 02:17:32,344
[Percy] Oh!

2659
02:17:32,410 --> 02:17:36,014
[Mauro] …Ciampa avoids
the cannonball by Gargano.

2660
02:17:36,081 --> 02:17:40,485
And will this be the moment
that cost Johnny Gargano

2661
02:17:40,552 --> 02:17:43,088
the match and the NXT Championship?

2662
02:17:43,154 --> 02:17:46,891
As Ciampa continues
to batter Johnny Gargano.

2663
02:17:47,425 --> 02:17:49,594
[Nigel] And the back of Johnny Gargano

2664
02:17:49,661 --> 02:17:51,763
has been destroyed throughout this match.

2665
02:17:51,830 --> 02:17:54,132
[Mauro] And it's about
to be further exacerbated.

2666
02:17:55,200 --> 02:17:57,168
[Percy] Don't do this. Come on!

2667
02:17:57,235 --> 02:17:59,504
[Mauro] My God, my God,

2668
02:17:59,571 --> 02:18:03,041
the fairy tale ending
face first on the steps!

2669
02:18:03,108 --> 02:18:03,942
[referee] One.

2670
02:18:04,009 --> 02:18:05,477
[Nigel] It is over!

2671
02:18:05,543 --> 02:18:07,846
[Mauro] It has to be.
The referee is counting.

2672
02:18:08,513 --> 02:18:11,449
There's no way Gargano
can get back up to his feet.

2673
02:18:12,083 --> 02:18:12,917
Four.

2674
02:18:13,685 --> 02:18:16,621
[Mauro] Meanwhile, Ciampa needs
to get back to his feet.

2675
02:18:18,490 --> 02:18:21,026
This is for the NXT Championship.

2676
02:18:21,092 --> 02:18:24,896
This is more than just about
the most intense rivalry in NXT.

2677
02:18:24,963 --> 02:18:27,098
Can Gargano get to his feet?

2678
02:18:27,165 --> 02:18:28,566
[Percy] This could be it!

2679
02:18:29,167 --> 02:18:30,168
[Mauro] Barely.

2680
02:18:30,235 --> 02:18:32,637
[Percy] I can't believe
what I'm seeing right now.

2681
02:18:33,738 --> 02:18:37,175
[Mauro] A breathtaking moment
in NXT history,

2682
02:18:37,242 --> 02:18:41,513
where Johnny Gargano was just able to beat

2683
02:18:41,579 --> 02:18:44,749
the NXT referee's ten-count.

2684
02:18:44,816 --> 02:18:46,484
I mean it was so close, guys.

2685
02:18:46,551 --> 02:18:48,253
[Percy] Gargano has nothing left,

2686
02:18:48,320 --> 02:18:50,121
but he will not give Tommaso Ciampa

2687
02:18:50,188 --> 02:18:52,424
the satisfaction of a victory here.

2688
02:18:52,490 --> 02:18:53,992
[Nigel] He is so spent.

2689
02:18:54,059 --> 02:18:56,728
[Mauro] And every time Gargano
gets back up to his feet,

2690
02:18:56,795 --> 02:18:59,431
it just brings out more rage from Ciampa.

2691
02:18:59,497 --> 02:19:02,534
It just continues
to fuel the conflagration

2692
02:19:02,600 --> 02:19:04,769
that is the NXT champion.

2693
02:19:07,739 --> 02:19:11,142
And now Ciampa continues to introduce…

2694
02:19:11,209 --> 02:19:12,477
-[Nigel] Oh.
-[Percy] No.

2695
02:19:14,245 --> 02:19:16,915
[Mauro] The brutal toys
in this last man standing--

2696
02:19:16,981 --> 02:19:17,882
[Percy] No, no.

2697
02:19:17,949 --> 02:19:19,617
[Nigel] We have seen Ciampa,

2698
02:19:20,552 --> 02:19:22,654
ultimately he won that match.

2699
02:19:22,721 --> 02:19:23,722
[Mauro] Yes, he did.

2700
02:19:29,427 --> 02:19:33,164
[Mauro] Ciampa just using
whatever is at his disposal.

2701
02:19:33,231 --> 02:19:34,499
The ring steps.

2702
02:19:36,167 --> 02:19:38,103
Now he's going to-- oh, no.

2703
02:19:38,169 --> 02:19:39,838
[Nigel] Ciampa is going to--

2704
02:19:39,904 --> 02:19:41,573
[Mauro] …of protective covering.

2705
02:19:42,374 --> 02:19:44,442
[Nigel] Whatever padding there is

2706
02:19:44,509 --> 02:19:46,211
is gonna be gone.

2707
02:19:46,945 --> 02:19:48,613
[Mauro] He's destroying the ring

2708
02:19:48,680 --> 02:19:52,250
in hopes of destroying Johnny Gargano.

2709
02:19:53,785 --> 02:19:55,987
[Nigel] Revealing those wooden boards.

2710
02:19:57,489 --> 02:19:59,023
[fans shouting]

2711
02:20:00,625 --> 02:20:03,695
[Percy] This could be more
than just a loss for Gargano tonight.

2712
02:20:03,762 --> 02:20:06,231
What does this mean
for tomorrow, for the career?

2713
02:20:06,297 --> 02:20:09,134
[Mauro] I doubt either Ciampa or Gargano

2714
02:20:09,200 --> 02:20:12,103
will ever be the same
after this last man standing match

2715
02:20:12,170 --> 02:20:16,541
and what they have put
themselves through this year here in NXT.

2716
02:20:16,608 --> 02:20:18,276
But for now, it's Ciampa--

2717
02:20:18,343 --> 02:20:22,013
…Gargano blasting Ciampa in the face!

2718
02:20:22,080 --> 02:20:24,716
And extinguishing that conflagration,

2719
02:20:24,783 --> 02:20:27,152
blinding the NXT champion.

2720
02:20:27,218 --> 02:20:28,386
[referee] One.

2721
02:20:30,355 --> 02:20:31,890
Two.

2722
02:20:31,956 --> 02:20:33,858
[Nigel] Ciampa is blinded.

2723
02:20:33,925 --> 02:20:35,427
Cannot see anything.

2724
02:20:35,493 --> 02:20:37,162
Cannot protect himself.

2725
02:20:37,228 --> 02:20:38,930
[Percy] Gargano gotta move quick.

2726
02:20:38,997 --> 02:20:40,565
[Mauro] Gargano has the crutch.

2727
02:20:45,403 --> 02:20:49,741
And Ciampa still…
wondering what's next--

2728
02:20:50,442 --> 02:20:54,012
…and Gargano with the swing.

2729
02:20:54,078 --> 02:20:57,482
And breaking the crutch
over the back of the Tommaso Ciampa.

2730
02:20:57,549 --> 02:20:59,050
[Percy] Did you see the smile?

2731
02:20:59,117 --> 02:21:02,687
[Mauro] …we have seen this before.

2732
02:21:04,189 --> 02:21:08,026
And Johnny Gargano now stalking
the NXT champion.

2733
02:21:08,092 --> 02:21:10,462
[Percy] Did you see the smile
on Gargano's face--

2734
02:21:10,528 --> 02:21:11,596
[Mauro] …everywhere.

2735
02:21:11,663 --> 02:21:13,765
[Percy] He knows he has
the upper hand now.

2736
02:21:13,832 --> 02:21:15,567
-[Nigel] Hold on!
-[Percy] No, no!

2737
02:21:15,633 --> 02:21:18,036
[Mauro] Ciampa has exposed the ring.

2738
02:21:20,538 --> 02:21:21,506
Meanwhile…

2739
02:21:22,874 --> 02:21:25,677
Johnny Gargano hanging on for dear life.

2740
02:21:26,611 --> 02:21:29,747
Gargano barely hanging on
to that top rope.

2741
02:21:29,814 --> 02:21:31,015
[fan] Oh, my God!

2742
02:21:32,383 --> 02:21:34,686
[Mauro] Ciampa saying bye-bye.

2743
02:21:35,186 --> 02:21:39,390
Oh, not so fast,
counter enziguri by Gargano,

2744
02:21:39,457 --> 02:21:41,726
cleaning the clock of Ciampa.

2745
02:21:45,230 --> 02:21:46,431
[Nigel] Inside DDT--

2746
02:21:46,498 --> 02:21:47,332
[Percy] Yes!

2747
02:21:47,398 --> 02:21:50,201
[Mauro] …DDT, face first goes Ciampa

2748
02:21:50,268 --> 02:21:52,971
on the exposed ring canvas!

2749
02:21:53,505 --> 02:21:56,741
That unforgiving wood!

2750
02:21:56,808 --> 02:21:58,443
[Nigel] Well, the irony…

2751
02:21:59,377 --> 02:22:03,548
if Gargano was to beat Ciampa
in the exact same way.

2752
02:22:03,615 --> 02:22:06,150
[Mauro] The referee is up
to a count of four.

2753
02:22:06,217 --> 02:22:08,119
[Percy] Gargano, get up.

2754
02:22:08,753 --> 02:22:11,723
[Mauro] Gargano using the ropes
to get back up to his feet.

2755
02:22:12,524 --> 02:22:16,227
Ciampa still down as the referee
reaches a count of seven.

2756
02:22:16,294 --> 02:22:17,629
[Percy] He can't get up.

2757
02:22:17,695 --> 02:22:20,565
[Mauro] Are we going to crown
a new NXT champion?

2758
02:22:21,499 --> 02:22:23,334
Oh, he's on his feet.

2759
02:22:24,636 --> 02:22:27,272
[Nigel] What a creative way
of getting to your feet.

2760
02:22:27,338 --> 02:22:28,907
[Percy] Falling out of the ring.

2761
02:22:28,973 --> 02:22:30,909
[Mauro] Jumping suicida by Gargano.

2762
02:22:31,743 --> 02:22:36,180
He has not finished meting out
the punishment to Tommaso Ciampa.

2763
02:22:38,249 --> 02:22:40,885
The fact that both of them
are still standing

2764
02:22:40,952 --> 02:22:45,490
is a testament to what
these two superstars are made of.

2765
02:22:48,493 --> 02:22:52,363
And Ciampa wiped out again
by Johnny Gargano.

2766
02:22:52,430 --> 02:22:55,500
Gargano firing off a series of left hands.

2767
02:22:57,869 --> 02:23:00,338
[Nigel] No one is safe at ringside.

2768
02:23:02,173 --> 02:23:04,642
[Percy] Do you expect
anything less between these--

2769
02:23:04,709 --> 02:23:05,643
Oh, no!

2770
02:23:07,745 --> 02:23:10,014
[Mauro] A member of the production crew!

2771
02:23:11,683 --> 02:23:13,051
Oh, my God,

2772
02:23:13,117 --> 02:23:16,854
Ciampa just smashed
Gargano's face into a monitor.

2773
02:23:19,057 --> 02:23:19,891
Two.

2774
02:23:19,958 --> 02:23:22,560
[Mauro] No one is safe here at ringside.

2775
02:23:22,627 --> 02:23:23,595
Three.

2776
02:23:24,228 --> 02:23:26,230
-[Percy] Oh!
-[Mauro] Oh, my God!

2777
02:23:29,067 --> 02:23:31,102
[crowd cheering]

2778
02:23:34,205 --> 02:23:37,575
[Mauro] Tommaso Ciampa, a man possessed.

2779
02:23:38,109 --> 02:23:41,846
Piling everybody on top of Johnny Gargano.

2780
02:23:41,913 --> 02:23:43,681
Ciampa has snapped.

2781
02:23:43,748 --> 02:23:45,817
[Nigel] I've never seen anything like it.

2782
02:23:45,883 --> 02:23:49,187
[Mauro] Ciampa is burying
Johnny Gargano's career.

2783
02:23:49,821 --> 02:23:51,990
[crowd cheering]

2784
02:23:52,557 --> 02:23:53,458
[fan] Oh, my God.

2785
02:23:53,524 --> 02:23:54,359
[Mauro] My God.

2786
02:23:54,425 --> 02:23:56,127
[Percy] Ciampa is absolutely crazy.

2787
02:23:56,194 --> 02:23:57,662
He's a maniac right now.

2788
02:23:57,729 --> 02:23:58,930
One.

2789
02:23:58,997 --> 02:24:01,032
[Mauro] Ciampa is trying to get away.

2790
02:24:01,099 --> 02:24:02,000
Two.

2791
02:24:02,700 --> 02:24:04,235
[Mauro] Referee counting.

2792
02:24:04,302 --> 02:24:06,037
Johnny Gargano buried.

2793
02:24:07,538 --> 02:24:08,439
Four!

2794
02:24:10,308 --> 02:24:11,209
Five!

2795
02:24:11,275 --> 02:24:12,910
[Mauro] Ciampa is panicking.

2796
02:24:13,811 --> 02:24:16,447
Ciampa desperate to win.

2797
02:24:16,514 --> 02:24:17,348
Seven!

2798
02:24:17,415 --> 02:24:20,151
[Mauro] Somehow Johnny Gargano--
the referee is at seven.

2799
02:24:20,818 --> 02:24:23,421
He's at eight. Gargano trying to escape.

2800
02:24:23,488 --> 02:24:25,823
Trying to bury himself
out from underneath.

2801
02:24:25,890 --> 02:24:27,325
He does it.

2802
02:24:27,392 --> 02:24:30,094
Johnny Gargano is on his feet.

2803
02:24:31,929 --> 02:24:33,031
[Nigel] No way!

2804
02:24:34,599 --> 02:24:36,668
[Percy] That's heart right there.

2805
02:24:36,734 --> 02:24:40,505
[Mauro] Ciampa just collapsed
on our broadcast table.

2806
02:24:40,571 --> 02:24:44,876
[Percy] Look at this!
Tommaso Ciampa destroyed Gargano.

2807
02:24:45,410 --> 02:24:48,913
[Mauro] Ciampa can't believe
that Johnny Gargano is still standing.

2808
02:24:49,480 --> 02:24:51,115
[fans chanting]

2809
02:24:54,485 --> 02:24:59,090
Gargano was buried
under pieces of the barricade,

2810
02:24:59,157 --> 02:25:00,391
the ring bell.

2811
02:25:02,393 --> 02:25:05,229
Remember, at TakeOver Chicago II,

2812
02:25:05,296 --> 02:25:09,867
it was Tommaso Ciampa
who was handcuffed and yet prevailed.

2813
02:25:09,934 --> 02:25:12,804
And now he's brought the handcuffs out.

2814
02:25:12,870 --> 02:25:16,207
But Johnny Gargano… oh, my God, no.

2815
02:25:16,274 --> 02:25:19,277
Ciampa… Ciampa handcuffing Gargano.

2816
02:25:19,944 --> 02:25:20,778
[Percy] Oh!

2817
02:25:20,845 --> 02:25:23,748
[Mauro] But Gargano
able to avoid that fate

2818
02:25:23,815 --> 02:25:26,350
by driving Ciampa into the ring post.

2819
02:25:27,585 --> 02:25:30,922
It's a cataclysmic scene here at ringside.

2820
02:25:32,924 --> 02:25:35,426
[Nigel] Chaos absolutely everywhere.

2821
02:25:35,493 --> 02:25:37,729
[Mauro] Gargano now has the handcuffs

2822
02:25:37,795 --> 02:25:40,698
and he's neutralized
the right hand of Ciampa.

2823
02:25:42,133 --> 02:25:45,369
Gargano looking to handcuff
Tommaso Ciampa again

2824
02:25:46,304 --> 02:25:47,572
here in Brooklyn.

2825
02:25:50,108 --> 02:25:52,844
But Ciampa desperate measure
to the back elbow,

2826
02:25:52,910 --> 02:25:57,281
sent spit flying out
of the mouth of Johnny Gargano.

2827
02:26:05,523 --> 02:26:08,392
The brutality fully on display.

2828
02:26:08,459 --> 02:26:10,194
-[Mauro] Oh, no.
-[Percy] Oh, my God.

2829
02:26:10,261 --> 02:26:12,196
[Mauro] Oh, no, Tommaso Ciampa.

2830
02:26:12,697 --> 02:26:14,632
Oh, Johnny Gargano on his feet.

2831
02:26:15,500 --> 02:26:17,135
They are on the ring apron now.

2832
02:26:17,201 --> 02:26:20,605
It's Gargano that has Ciampa
over his shoulders.

2833
02:26:20,671 --> 02:26:22,740
Ciampa holding on to the ropes.

2834
02:26:27,545 --> 02:26:29,480
The NXT Championship

2835
02:26:29,981 --> 02:26:32,383
precariously hanging in the balance.

2836
02:26:32,450 --> 02:26:33,618
Gargano in the ring.

2837
02:26:33,684 --> 02:26:35,353
Oh, there's a left hand to Ciampa.

2838
02:26:37,989 --> 02:26:38,923
[Nigel] Ciampa.

2839
02:26:38,990 --> 02:26:40,558
[Percy] Barely hanging on.

2840
02:26:42,160 --> 02:26:46,097
[Mauro] Ciampa desperately trying
to stay standing.

2841
02:26:47,165 --> 02:26:48,132
Oh, look at this.

2842
02:26:48,199 --> 02:26:50,601
Gargano has got a handful of Ciampa's--

2843
02:26:50,668 --> 02:26:53,237
-[Percy] Goodbye.
-[Mauro] …superkick!

2844
02:26:53,304 --> 02:26:54,872
Superkick!

2845
02:26:55,439 --> 02:27:01,145
And Ciampa crashes through the tables!

2846
02:27:01,212 --> 02:27:02,079
One!

2847
02:27:03,981 --> 02:27:06,684
[Mauro] Metal and pieces of wood
flying everything.

2848
02:27:07,552 --> 02:27:10,755
Has Johnny Gargano officially crashed

2849
02:27:10,822 --> 02:27:14,225
Tommaso Ciampa's Championship reign?

2850
02:27:14,292 --> 02:27:16,694
Referee is up to a count of five.

2851
02:27:16,761 --> 02:27:19,230
[Percy] This might be it.
Ciampa is barely moving.

2852
02:27:19,297 --> 02:27:23,568
Gargano is playing,
this is for the NXT Championship.

2853
02:27:23,634 --> 02:27:28,272
This could be the most memorable night
in Johnny Gargano's career.

2854
02:27:28,339 --> 02:27:29,173
[Percy] Come on.

2855
02:27:29,240 --> 02:27:30,441
[Mauro] …no defeat.

2856
02:27:30,508 --> 02:27:33,411
Ciampa literally using the crutch

2857
02:27:33,477 --> 02:27:38,850
and giving him life
in this NXT Championship match.

2858
02:27:40,051 --> 02:27:41,986
[fans chanting]

2859
02:27:42,486 --> 02:27:44,655
[Mauro] Chants of fight forever.

2860
02:27:44,722 --> 02:27:48,626
They've been doing
just that in this rivalry,

2861
02:27:48,693 --> 02:27:51,329
this battle for the ages.

2862
02:27:51,395 --> 02:27:54,265
I have never seen anything like this

2863
02:27:54,332 --> 02:27:56,167
in sports entertainment.

2864
02:27:56,234 --> 02:27:58,736
The vitriol and the intensity,

2865
02:27:58,803 --> 02:28:02,940
the enmity that Ciampa
and Gargano have for one another,

2866
02:28:03,007 --> 02:28:04,709
it's not human, my friends.

2867
02:28:04,775 --> 02:28:06,644
It's not human.

2868
02:28:08,746 --> 02:28:11,315
[Nigel] Ciampa staring up at Gargano.

2869
02:28:11,382 --> 02:28:13,317
Gargano staring back.

2870
02:28:14,285 --> 02:28:16,520
They know there must be more.

2871
02:28:21,459 --> 02:28:23,160
Where are they going?

2872
02:28:23,861 --> 02:28:27,598
Ciampa leading Gargano away from the ring.

2873
02:28:27,665 --> 02:28:30,601
[Mauro] Ciampa using the crutch
to keep himself standing.

2874
02:28:31,702 --> 02:28:34,038
And now it's Gargano

2875
02:28:34,105 --> 02:28:36,707
kicks the crutch away from Ciampa.

2876
02:28:36,774 --> 02:28:38,476
Back on even terms

2877
02:28:38,542 --> 02:28:41,312
and Johnny Gargano grounding and pounding

2878
02:28:41,379 --> 02:28:45,283
the NXT champion,
mercilessly beating him down.

2879
02:28:48,252 --> 02:28:52,590
And here are shades of TakeOver Chicago I,

2880
02:28:52,657 --> 02:28:55,393
the dissolution of DIY!

2881
02:29:00,998 --> 02:29:05,069
Oh, Johnny Gargano cinches
in the Gargano escape.

2882
02:29:05,136 --> 02:29:06,604
And while Ciampa is tapping--

2883
02:29:06,671 --> 02:29:09,340
-[Percy] It won't matter.
-[Mauro] …it doesn't matter.

2884
02:29:11,108 --> 02:29:13,311
[fans chanting]

2885
02:29:14,745 --> 02:29:18,282
[Nigel] Gargano has the one open handcuff.

2886
02:29:18,816 --> 02:29:20,217
[Mauro] How long, though?

2887
02:29:20,284 --> 02:29:23,087
Johnny Gargano now handcuffing,

2888
02:29:23,721 --> 02:29:26,757
Ciampa trapped on part of the stage.

2889
02:29:26,824 --> 02:29:28,459
Johnny Gargano--

2890
02:29:28,526 --> 02:29:29,393
How can--

2891
02:29:29,460 --> 02:29:32,363
Ciampa has been neutralized.

2892
02:29:37,101 --> 02:29:39,503
And while Ciampa is able to stand,

2893
02:29:39,570 --> 02:29:41,339
how much longer-- oh!

2894
02:29:42,039 --> 02:29:43,574
[Nigel] This is hard to watch.

2895
02:29:43,641 --> 02:29:46,911
[Percy] It's hard to see Gargano
become this person, this man.

2896
02:29:46,978 --> 02:29:48,245
[Mauro] Ciampa defenseless

2897
02:29:48,312 --> 02:29:51,349
as he eats the superkick
from Johnny Gargano.

2898
02:29:51,415 --> 02:29:52,917
[Nigel] Ciampa is limp.

2899
02:29:52,984 --> 02:29:54,452
[fans] One more time!

2900
02:29:55,953 --> 02:29:59,190
[Mauro] The NXT universe
yelling one more time.

2901
02:30:00,658 --> 02:30:01,592
Ready?

2902
02:30:01,659 --> 02:30:03,127
Johnny, please.

2903
02:30:04,061 --> 02:30:04,962
Please, Johnny.

2904
02:30:05,029 --> 02:30:05,963
Johnny, I'm sorry,.

2905
02:30:06,030 --> 02:30:06,998
I'm sorry.

2906
02:30:07,064 --> 02:30:08,766
You're sorry, huh? You're sorry.

2907
02:30:08,833 --> 02:30:10,434
It's too late for that now.

2908
02:30:13,170 --> 02:30:17,641
[Mauro] Ciampa trying to say sorry
to Johnny Gargano?

2909
02:30:17,708 --> 02:30:19,510
[Percy] Too late for apologies now.

2910
02:30:19,577 --> 02:30:20,911
[referee] Two!

2911
02:30:20,978 --> 02:30:22,213
[fans] One more time!

2912
02:30:22,713 --> 02:30:25,449
[Nigel] Ciampa pleading for some mercy.

2913
02:30:26,584 --> 02:30:28,786
[Mauro] Oh, but he will get no mercy.

2914
02:30:30,187 --> 02:30:33,257
Gargano not even looking
at the referee for the count.

2915
02:30:34,291 --> 02:30:36,160
Yelling at Ciampa, you did this!

2916
02:30:36,794 --> 02:30:39,697
Gargano just wants to destroy Ciampa.

2917
02:30:40,664 --> 02:30:43,034
Well, it is for the NXT Championship.

2918
02:30:43,100 --> 02:30:45,069
Johnny, I'm sorry.

2919
02:30:45,136 --> 02:30:46,337
Johnny, please.

2920
02:30:46,404 --> 02:30:48,272
You're sorry? You're sorry?

2921
02:30:48,339 --> 02:30:49,507
I'm sorry!

2922
02:30:49,573 --> 02:30:51,008
I'm sorry!

2923
02:30:52,109 --> 02:30:53,344
Johnny, I'm--

2924
02:30:56,047 --> 02:30:56,881
[referee] One!

2925
02:30:58,682 --> 02:30:59,517
Two!

2926
02:31:01,752 --> 02:31:02,586
Three!

2927
02:31:02,653 --> 02:31:04,055
[fan] There you go, Johnny!

2928
02:31:05,156 --> 02:31:07,224
[Mauro] Message for Tommaso Ciampa

2929
02:31:07,825 --> 02:31:09,760
is that Johnny Gargano…

2930
02:31:11,429 --> 02:31:14,064
Well… the count is up to six.

2931
02:31:14,131 --> 02:31:16,100
Ciampa getting back up to his feet.

2932
02:31:17,868 --> 02:31:19,036
He's still down.

2933
02:31:19,703 --> 02:31:20,538
[referee] One.

2934
02:31:22,640 --> 02:31:23,474
Two.

2935
02:31:26,343 --> 02:31:27,244
Three.

2936
02:31:29,380 --> 02:31:30,281
Four.

2937
02:31:32,750 --> 02:31:33,651
Five.

2938
02:31:34,685 --> 02:31:37,855
[Mauro] Moment of truth
for Johnny Gargano.

2939
02:31:37,922 --> 02:31:40,157
He's exposed his knee.

2940
02:31:41,592 --> 02:31:43,260
And Tommaso Ciampa,

2941
02:31:43,327 --> 02:31:45,629
you're apologies falling on deaf ears.

2942
02:31:45,696 --> 02:31:46,764
Oh, my God!

2943
02:31:47,731 --> 02:31:49,934
Gargano delivering the knee,

2944
02:31:50,000 --> 02:31:51,569
but then wiping himself out.

2945
02:31:52,203 --> 02:31:53,204
One.

2946
02:31:53,270 --> 02:31:56,974
[Mauro] Talk about a pyrrhic move
for Johnny Gargano.

2947
02:31:57,041 --> 02:31:58,843
The referee counting.

2948
02:31:58,909 --> 02:32:00,644
Both men are down!

2949
02:32:01,645 --> 02:32:02,947
Four!

2950
02:32:04,448 --> 02:32:06,117
-[Mauro] Unbelievable.
-Five.

2951
02:32:06,183 --> 02:32:08,586
The ref is up to a count of five,

2952
02:32:08,652 --> 02:32:12,356
make it six, for the NXT Championship.

2953
02:32:12,890 --> 02:32:15,226
Can Gargano get up to his feet first?

2954
02:32:15,292 --> 02:32:16,527
He's injured his knee.

2955
02:32:16,594 --> 02:32:20,197
Ciampa is still down,
the referee is up to nine.

2956
02:32:20,264 --> 02:32:21,232
Ciampa is up.

2957
02:32:21,298 --> 02:32:22,933
-[Mauro] Ciampa is up.
-[Percy] No!

2958
02:32:23,000 --> 02:32:24,168
[bell ringing]

2959
02:32:24,235 --> 02:32:26,103
[Mauro] Ciampa was still on his feet.

2960
02:32:26,170 --> 02:32:27,905
Ciampa survived!

2961
02:32:28,672 --> 02:32:30,975
[crowd cheering]

2962
02:32:39,150 --> 02:32:44,088
[Kayla] Your winner
and still NXT champion,

2963
02:32:45,089 --> 02:32:48,159
Tommaso Ciampa!

2964
02:32:48,225 --> 02:32:50,427
[Mauro] And in what Johnny Gargano thought

2965
02:32:50,494 --> 02:32:53,163
was his pièce de résistance,
the running knee strike,

2966
02:32:53,230 --> 02:32:58,602
he hurt his knee trying to deliver
the final blow to Tommaso Ciampa.

2967
02:32:58,669 --> 02:33:02,706
And that did not allow Gargano

2968
02:33:02,773 --> 02:33:04,375
to get back up to his feet.

2969
02:33:05,075 --> 02:33:07,111
And after all we have witnessed,

2970
02:33:07,178 --> 02:33:10,314
Tommaso Ciampa is the last man standing

2971
02:33:10,381 --> 02:33:13,884
and still NXT champion.

2972
02:33:20,758 --> 02:33:22,760
Johnny Gargano is hurt.

2973
02:33:25,863 --> 02:33:29,099
[Nigel] As we take a look back
at some of this brutality,

2974
02:33:30,434 --> 02:33:33,070
Gargano getting a sense of retribution

2975
02:33:33,137 --> 02:33:36,640
in the same move
that Ciampa used to beat him.

2976
02:33:36,707 --> 02:33:38,208
[Percy] I just can't believe

2977
02:33:38,275 --> 02:33:40,744
the lengths these two competitors

2978
02:33:40,811 --> 02:33:45,916
went to just be so brutal
and devastating to each other.

2979
02:33:45,983 --> 02:33:47,518
I can't imagine. Look at this.

2980
02:33:49,887 --> 02:33:53,657
[Nigel] We saw brutality
the likes of which…

2981
02:33:57,795 --> 02:34:00,464
[Percy] And this right here,
this running knee--

2982
02:34:00,531 --> 02:34:01,765
[Nigel] Johnny Gargano!

2983
02:34:01,832 --> 02:34:02,666
[Mauro] My God!

2984
02:34:02,733 --> 02:34:04,234
And, guys, I'm now being told

2985
02:34:04,802 --> 02:34:09,273
that Johnny Gargano may have
dislocated his knee.

2986
02:34:11,909 --> 02:34:13,143
Oh, my God.

2987
02:34:16,313 --> 02:34:17,514
Eight!

2988
02:34:17,581 --> 02:34:20,618
[Mauro] Talk about adding injury
to insult, Nigel.

2989
02:34:21,218 --> 02:34:22,653
If the reports are true,

2990
02:34:22,720 --> 02:34:25,956
Johnny Gargano may have just
dislocated his knee.

2991
02:34:28,792 --> 02:34:32,930
[Nigel] Certainly would have made it
impossible for Gargano to stand.

2992
02:34:36,267 --> 02:34:37,735
What an incredible match.

2993
02:34:40,170 --> 02:34:45,342
[Mauro] And after a brutal
last man standing match,

2994
02:34:46,577 --> 02:34:50,848
Tommaso Ciampa remains your NXT champion.

2995
02:34:50,914 --> 02:34:53,784
And I don't want to take away
anything from his victory.

2996
02:34:53,851 --> 02:34:57,755
But there is concern
for the welfare of Johnny Gargano.

2997
02:35:05,029 --> 02:35:09,199
And guys, I hate to say it,
but it had to end like this.

2998
02:35:10,234 --> 02:35:11,669
[cheers and boos]

2999
02:35:12,836 --> 02:35:14,071
[Nigel] We certainly knew

3000
02:35:15,639 --> 02:35:17,841
what both of these men were willing to do

3001
02:35:18,942 --> 02:35:20,144
to secure a victory.

3002
02:35:27,918 --> 02:35:31,455
[Mauro] Forget about the physical toll,
what about the psychological toll

3003
02:35:31,522 --> 02:35:33,023
on both of these superstars?

3004
02:35:34,058 --> 02:35:36,694
Unsanctioned fight, street fight

3005
02:35:36,760 --> 02:35:39,096
and now a last man standing match

3006
02:35:39,163 --> 02:35:45,102
that, well, results in Johnny Gargano
being unable to stand, period.

3007
02:35:45,169 --> 02:35:49,073
[Nigel] These are experiences
that stay with you the rest of your life.

3008
02:35:51,742 --> 02:35:53,877
[Percy] I've got no love
for Tommaso Ciampa.

3009
02:35:53,944 --> 02:35:55,779
My heart goes out to Johnny Gargano.

3010
02:35:55,846 --> 02:35:57,348
It's been almost two years

3011
02:35:57,414 --> 02:36:00,017
dealing with this situation
with Tommaso Ciampa

3012
02:36:00,084 --> 02:36:02,519
to have it all come down to end like this.

3013
02:36:02,586 --> 02:36:04,688
[cheers and boos]

3014
02:36:14,298 --> 02:36:18,736
[Mauro] Tommaso Ciampa said
there is no boundaries, no limits.

3015
02:36:18,802 --> 02:36:20,471
He is writing his own legacy.

3016
02:36:20,537 --> 02:36:22,773
He is carrying NXT along for the ride.

3017
02:36:22,840 --> 02:36:24,308
And say what you will

3018
02:36:24,375 --> 02:36:28,378
about his vicious
and intemperate disposition,

3019
02:36:28,445 --> 02:36:30,848
a man who is rotten to his very marrow,

3020
02:36:31,548 --> 02:36:35,519
also happens to be
one of the toughest superstars

3021
02:36:35,586 --> 02:36:36,820
you will ever encounter.

3022
02:36:36,887 --> 02:36:39,356
Tommaso Ciampa survives
the last man standing match

3023
02:36:40,991 --> 02:36:42,793
and remains NXT champion.

3024
02:36:42,860 --> 02:36:46,864
But what about the future
of Johnny Gargano?

3025
02:36:49,133 --> 02:36:51,168
[crowd cheering]

3026
02:37:07,618 --> 02:37:10,954
[Mauro] As an announcer
you want to remain unbiased, but Nigel,

3027
02:37:11,021 --> 02:37:13,991
as a fan, it breaks your heart
to see Gargano like this.

3028
02:37:14,057 --> 02:37:16,860
But what did we expect?

3029
02:37:17,995 --> 02:37:18,996
[Nigel] Absolutely.

3030
02:37:19,496 --> 02:37:21,565
We knew what both these men
were capable of

3031
02:37:21,632 --> 02:37:23,033
what they were willing to do.

3032
02:37:23,100 --> 02:37:25,536
And unfortunately,
we got to see it tonight.

3033
02:37:42,352 --> 02:37:44,321
[crowd cheering]

3034
02:38:01,872 --> 02:38:03,373
[cheers and boos]
