00:07:55,541 --> 00:07:57,276
single-handedly upgrade NXT

189
00:07:57,343 --> 00:07:58,644
takeover 36 simply

190
00:07:58,711 --> 00:08:02,148
by virtue of the fact he's right here,

191
00:08:02,215 --> 00:08:03,883
but he's also going to upgrade

192
00:08:03,950 --> 00:08:05,918
his own personal butler

193
00:08:05,985 --> 00:08:08,154
which, let's face it, is solely because

194
00:08:08,221 --> 00:08:10,089
Cameron Grimes has messed up

195
00:08:10,156 --> 00:08:12,859
every single task he's been set.

196
00:08:12,925 --> 00:08:13,759
Once I whip him,

197
00:08:13,826 --> 00:08:17,430
I'll own this and I'll own you.

198
00:08:17,496 --> 00:08:18,664
You can wear the scraps

199
00:08:18,731 --> 00:08:19,932
of this million dollar champ.

200
00:08:19,999 --> 00:08:21,334
Oh, yes, I'll have that too.

201
00:08:22,134 --> 00:08:24,036
[Wade] That money isn't going to help you

202
00:08:24,103 --> 00:08:25,338
soon, Ted DiBiase,

203
00:08:25,404 --> 00:08:26,439
because very soon

204
00:08:26,506 --> 00:08:28,474
you are going to be the personal servant

205
00:08:28,541 --> 00:08:29,642
of LA Knight.

206
00:08:29,709 --> 00:08:36,082
[Audience chants "LA sucks"]

207
00:08:36,148 --> 00:08:36,983
[Vic] You can hear

208
00:08:37,049 --> 00:08:38,484
how the Capitol Wrestling Center

209
00:08:38,551 --> 00:08:40,520
feels about the Million Dollar champion.

210
00:08:40,586 --> 00:08:42,321
Are you on his payroll or something, Wade?

211
00:08:42,388 --> 00:08:44,056
You're out here looking like Gordon Gekko
tonight.

212
00:08:44,123 --> 00:08:45,591
[Wade] Hey, greed is good.

213
00:08:45,658 --> 00:08:47,293
I've always said that, Vic Joseph.

214
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:48,361
Money never sleeps.

215
00:08:48,427 --> 00:08:49,495
Two people in this arena

216
00:08:49,562 --> 00:08:50,796
who understand that are myself

217
00:08:50,863 --> 00:08:51,797
and LA Knight.

218
00:08:51,864 --> 00:08:56,269
[audience cheers]

219
00:08:57,069 --> 00:08:57,904
[bell rings]

220
00:08:57,970 --> 00:08:59,205
[Vic] All right. Here we go.

221
00:08:59,272 --> 00:09:01,173
Million dollar championship on the line.

222
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,376
Let's remember, Cameron Grimes

223
00:09:03,442 --> 00:09:04,810
can't get the job done tonight,

224
00:09:04,877 --> 00:09:06,112
Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase

225
00:09:06,178 --> 00:09:07,179
will be the personal butler

226
00:09:07,246 --> 00:09:08,281
to LA Knight.

227
00:09:08,347 --> 00:09:13,185
[audience chants]

228
00:09:13,252 --> 00:09:17,089
[audience chants]

229
00:09:17,156 --> 00:09:22,762
[audience jeers]

230
00:09:22,828 --> 00:09:25,097
[Vic] Big money matchup kicking things off

231
00:09:25,698 --> 00:09:27,800
here at NXT takeover 36.

232
00:09:28,568 --> 00:09:30,770
[Wade] It is a hot night in Orlando,

233
00:09:30,836 --> 00:09:33,406
Florida, only made hotter by this audience

234
00:09:33,472 --> 00:09:34,307
here tonight.

235
00:09:34,373 --> 00:09:35,508
[Vic] Speaking of that…

236
00:09:35,574 --> 00:09:40,680
[audience chants]

237
00:09:40,746 --> 00:09:41,781
[Vic] Oh!

238
00:09:42,281 --> 00:09:44,917
Speaking of hot, the fire reignited

239
00:09:44,984 --> 00:09:46,252
within Cameron Grimes

240
00:09:46,319 --> 00:09:47,253
this past Tuesday.

241
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:48,988
[Beth] Listen to those chops

242
00:09:49,055 --> 00:09:51,123
that he just slapped on LA Knight's face.

243
00:09:51,190 --> 00:09:52,024
[Vic] Oh.

244
00:09:52,091 --> 00:09:53,960
[Beth] He was just three feet away

245
00:09:54,026 --> 00:09:54,927
from us here.

246
00:09:56,362 --> 00:09:59,365
Will LA Knight punch Ted DiBiase

247
00:09:59,432 --> 00:10:00,600
straight in the face

248
00:10:01,233 --> 00:10:03,336
and cost DiBiase to finally say to him

249
00:10:03,402 --> 00:10:05,438
"Grimes, you were not born to be a butler

250
00:10:05,504 --> 00:10:07,340
you were born to be a champion."

251
00:10:07,406 --> 00:10:09,308
That set off the alarm in Grimes' head

252
00:10:09,375 --> 00:10:12,211
and he's here tonight to get the job done.

253
00:10:12,278 --> 00:10:13,212
What a backdrop.

254
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:15,214
Look, Ted DiBiase also told Grimes,

255
00:10:15,281 --> 00:10:16,515
"Follow your heart."

256
00:10:16,582 --> 00:10:18,084
That could lead him to a championship.

257
00:10:18,150 --> 00:10:20,286
[Wade] I say "Follow your heart"

258
00:10:20,353 --> 00:10:22,421
is a ludicrous piece of advice as well,

259
00:10:22,488 --> 00:10:23,856
a whimsical soundbite

260
00:10:23,923 --> 00:10:26,192
that's not ever helped anyone in life.

261
00:10:26,258 --> 00:10:27,093
[Vic] Grimes looking

262
00:10:27,159 --> 00:10:28,394
for the million dollar dream.

263
00:10:28,461 --> 00:10:29,562
Knight's trying his best to block,

264
00:10:29,629 --> 00:10:30,696
center of the ring right now.

265
00:10:30,763 --> 00:10:32,531
Knight trying to create separation

266
00:10:32,598 --> 00:10:34,033
and certainly does.

267
00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:35,334
[Beth] You just believe, Wade,

268
00:10:35,401 --> 00:10:36,969
because you've got a cavernous hole

269
00:10:37,036 --> 00:10:38,170
where a heart should be.

270
00:10:38,237 --> 00:10:41,073
[Vic] Knight is not going to like the view

271
00:10:41,140 --> 00:10:42,508
when he turns around.

272
00:10:43,175 --> 00:10:44,710
Whoa.

273
00:10:44,777 --> 00:10:46,312
Swing and a miss. Grimes now.

274
00:10:46,379 --> 00:10:47,780
That time it connected

275
00:10:47,847 --> 00:10:50,182
right under the jaw for LA Knight.

276
00:10:50,249 --> 00:10:51,684
[Wade] Just an extra point

277
00:10:51,751 --> 00:10:53,386
to the chin of LA Knight.

278
00:10:53,452 --> 00:10:55,721
LA Knight taking every ounce

279
00:10:55,788 --> 00:10:57,390
of the power of that kick.

280
00:10:57,456 --> 00:10:58,457
[Vic] There's Ted DiBiase.

281
00:10:58,524 --> 00:11:00,259
See, all smiles in the background

282
00:11:00,326 --> 00:11:02,328
because if Grimes can't get the job done,

283
00:11:03,029 --> 00:11:05,331
It's DiBiase who becomes a personal butler

284
00:11:05,398 --> 00:11:06,365
of LA Knight,

285
00:11:06,432 --> 00:11:08,801
but Grimes right now is in control.

286
00:11:09,035 --> 00:11:10,169
[Beth] This is exactly

287
00:11:10,236 --> 00:11:11,270
what Grimes had to do

288
00:11:11,337 --> 00:11:12,171
from the get-go,

289
00:11:12,238 --> 00:11:13,706
get the momentum on his side.

290
00:11:15,207 --> 00:11:16,542
Hold on!

291
00:11:16,609 --> 00:11:18,210
[Vic] An assist from the hall of famer.

292
00:11:18,277 --> 00:11:19,945
[Wade] Tell me how that's legal.

293
00:11:20,980 --> 00:11:22,248
[Vic] Ted DiBiase actually

294
00:11:22,314 --> 00:11:23,783
didn't put his hands on LA Knight.

295
00:11:23,849 --> 00:11:24,917
[crowd applauding]

296
00:11:25,518 --> 00:11:27,286
[Wade] Involving himself in the matchup.

297
00:11:27,353 --> 00:11:28,320
In fact, that's the first thing

298
00:11:28,387 --> 00:11:29,689
Ted DiBiase has ever done

299
00:11:29,755 --> 00:11:30,823
for Grimes to help him.

300
00:11:30,890 --> 00:11:31,824
[Beth] All I see right here

301
00:11:31,891 --> 00:11:33,793
is two boots to the face one more time.

302
00:11:33,859 --> 00:11:36,028
I know a great den in Knoxville,

303
00:11:36,095 --> 00:11:37,596
LA Knight might need it.

304
00:11:37,663 --> 00:11:38,731
[Vic] Back to live action

305
00:11:38,798 --> 00:11:40,099
turning things right around

306
00:11:40,166 --> 00:11:41,667
is LA Knight.

307
00:11:41,734 --> 00:11:44,870
A lot of leniency by our official here

308
00:11:44,937 --> 00:11:46,772
tonight in this match of high stakes.

309
00:11:46,839 --> 00:11:47,773
A lot on the line,

310
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,075
that million dollar title,

311
00:11:49,141 --> 00:11:50,776
as finally LA Knight gets the challenger

312
00:11:50,843 --> 00:11:51,677
back into the ring,

313
00:11:51,744 --> 00:11:53,345
and, well, telegraphed it did Knight,

314
00:11:53,412 --> 00:11:55,181
Grimes making Knight pay.

315
00:11:55,381 --> 00:11:57,083
And here comes Cameron Grimes

316
00:11:57,149 --> 00:11:59,118
certainly keeping his foot on the gas

317
00:11:59,285 --> 00:12:00,352
and now his foot into the jaw

318
00:12:00,419 --> 00:12:02,021
once again the champion.

319
00:12:02,088 --> 00:12:02,922
[Wade] LA Knight

320
00:12:02,988 --> 00:12:05,024
has got an absolute whooping so far

321
00:12:05,091 --> 00:12:05,925
in this matchup,

322
00:12:05,991 --> 00:12:08,594
clearly weeks and months of frustration

323
00:12:08,661 --> 00:12:10,663
built up inside the butler

324
00:12:10,730 --> 00:12:12,298
or perhaps the former butler,

325
00:12:12,364 --> 00:12:13,399
Cameron Grimes.

326
00:12:13,466 --> 00:12:15,167
-All coming out!
-Oh, no!

327
00:12:15,234 --> 00:12:17,269
[Wade] Until things change

328
00:12:17,470 --> 00:12:18,671
before our eyes.

329
00:12:18,738 --> 00:12:21,340
[Vic] Nasty landing for Grimes.

330
00:12:21,407 --> 00:12:22,241
[Wade] Ribs first

331
00:12:22,308 --> 00:12:24,009
right on that top turnbuckle.

332
00:12:24,076 --> 00:12:25,878
[Beth] Just check out this landing here.

333
00:12:25,945 --> 00:12:28,247
LA Knight sweeping the feet of Grimes.

334
00:12:28,414 --> 00:12:30,983
See it? His head just snapping back?

335
00:12:31,050 --> 00:12:33,352
[Vic] LA Knight going to town.

336
00:12:33,419 --> 00:12:34,720
[Wade] LA Knight

337
00:12:34,787 --> 00:12:37,156
you take as many shots at him as you want,

338
00:12:37,223 --> 00:12:38,057
you can't deny

339
00:12:38,124 --> 00:12:40,126
what a high caliber athlete he is.

340
00:12:40,192 --> 00:12:41,761
LA, a hell of a story

341
00:12:41,827 --> 00:12:43,329
in the early goings of this matchup,

342
00:12:43,395 --> 00:12:44,363
but now back on top.

343
00:12:45,264 --> 00:12:46,398
[Vic] The self-proclaimed

344
00:12:46,465 --> 00:12:48,167
million-dollar megastar

345
00:12:48,234 --> 00:12:49,168
in control.

346
00:12:49,235 --> 00:12:50,603
[Wade] Yes, the self-proclaimed.

347
00:12:50,669 --> 00:12:51,637
It's about time you started

348
00:12:51,704 --> 00:12:53,105
proclaiming that too.

349
00:12:53,172 --> 00:12:55,007
Now you're starting to get it back.

350
00:12:55,074 --> 00:12:56,175
[Beth] Has anybody seen

351
00:12:56,242 --> 00:12:57,576
LA Knight's bank account?

352
00:12:57,643 --> 00:12:58,611
He might be writing checks

353
00:12:58,677 --> 00:12:59,512
that he can't cash.

354
00:12:59,578 --> 00:13:01,413
-Oh!
-I've seen his car.

355
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:02,314
That alone tells me

356
00:13:02,381 --> 00:13:03,749
how much money that man's got.

357
00:13:03,816 --> 00:13:05,551
-It's a lot.
-I think it's a rental.

358
00:13:05,618 --> 00:13:06,552
[Vic] There's Ted DiBiase

359
00:13:06,619 --> 00:13:08,053
trying to shout words of encouragement

360
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:09,188
into Grimes' ear,

361
00:13:09,255 --> 00:13:10,389
as LA Knight now--

362
00:13:10,456 --> 00:13:12,658
Oh! Right under the bottom rope

363
00:13:12,858 --> 00:13:15,561
goes the throat of Cameron Grimes.

364
00:13:17,263 --> 00:13:19,165
Knight has slowed the matchup down.

365
00:13:19,231 --> 00:13:20,299
Most importantly though,

366
00:13:20,366 --> 00:13:22,234
has taken the Capitol Wrestling Center

367
00:13:22,301 --> 00:13:23,402
out of this matchup.

368
00:13:23,469 --> 00:13:25,004
as now Knight's relentless

369
00:13:25,070 --> 00:13:27,373
and the pompous champion in control.

370
00:13:27,439 --> 00:13:29,575
[Wade] Yes, he's not just a high roller.

371
00:13:29,642 --> 00:13:31,410
He can do the nasty stuff too.

372
00:13:31,477 --> 00:13:33,078
When it gets down to the nitty gritty

373
00:13:33,145 --> 00:13:34,513
for a ground and pound,

374
00:13:34,580 --> 00:13:36,415
there's no one finer than LA Knight.

375
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,289
[Vic] Oh, a boot under the jaw.

376
00:13:43,355 --> 00:13:45,824
Grimes starting to rally in this matchup.

377
00:13:45,891 --> 00:13:47,126
Grimes right back in

378
00:13:47,193 --> 00:13:49,195
and gets shut down quickly by Knight.

379
00:13:51,530 --> 00:13:53,232
[Beth] Grimes trying to hang in here

380
00:13:53,299 --> 00:13:55,234
with LA Knight turning up the aggression.

381
00:13:55,935 --> 00:13:56,769
[Vic] Whoa.

382
00:13:56,836 --> 00:13:58,871
picking up the speed is Grimes.

383
00:13:58,938 --> 00:13:59,905
High crossbody.

384
00:13:59,972 --> 00:14:01,440
Into the cover, for the title.

385
00:14:01,507 --> 00:14:04,610
Grimes just kicked out at two.

386
00:14:05,578 --> 00:14:07,413
[Beth] Grimes just gasping for air,

387
00:14:07,479 --> 00:14:08,914
trying to get his wind back.

388
00:14:08,981 --> 00:14:11,250
That onslaught from LA Knight.

389
00:14:11,317 --> 00:14:13,719
[Vic] Neckbreaker is blocked by Grimes.

390
00:14:15,754 --> 00:14:17,556
Grimes with Knight in his sights.

391
00:14:17,723 --> 00:14:19,291
Knight charging back and Grimes again

392
00:14:19,358 --> 00:14:21,026
able to evade the champion.

393
00:14:21,093 --> 00:14:21,994
Challenger going up

394
00:14:22,061 --> 00:14:23,896
and gets caught with a Powerbomb.

395
00:14:23,963 --> 00:14:25,764
Knight now to retain his title

396
00:14:25,831 --> 00:14:27,600
for DiBiase to become his butler.

397
00:14:27,666 --> 00:14:29,201
And Grimes just kicked out.

398
00:14:29,268 --> 00:14:30,836
[Wade] Just a reflex reaction there

399
00:14:30,903 --> 00:14:32,071
from LA Knight.

400
00:14:32,137 --> 00:14:34,573
The power to convert it into a Powerbomb.

401
00:14:34,740 --> 00:14:36,108
[Beth] One more time.

402
00:14:36,175 --> 00:14:37,676
Look at the height on this.

403
00:14:37,743 --> 00:14:38,611
Boom.

404
00:14:38,677 --> 00:14:40,379
Just telegraphing it, and again,

405
00:14:40,446 --> 00:14:42,414
Grimes clutching at that neck.

406
00:14:42,481 --> 00:14:43,849
You can see the war wounds

407
00:14:43,916 --> 00:14:46,118
on the back of Cameron Grimes.

408
00:14:46,185 --> 00:14:47,353
[Wade] Let me just pull you up

409
00:14:47,419 --> 00:14:48,621
-on something there, Jones.
-What?

410
00:14:48,687 --> 00:14:50,689
[Wade] Did I hear you call LA Knight

411
00:14:50,756 --> 00:14:53,259
our Million Dollar champion, pompous?

412
00:14:53,792 --> 00:14:54,660
[Vic] Yes.

413
00:14:54,727 --> 00:14:56,061
[Wade] How dare you.

414
00:14:56,128 --> 00:14:57,396
You think he's self-important,

415
00:14:57,463 --> 00:14:58,564
you think he's mean-spirited?

416
00:14:58,631 --> 00:15:00,232
Look at the man's achievements,

417
00:15:00,299 --> 00:15:01,767
look at the man's brilliance.

418
00:15:01,834 --> 00:15:03,168
If anyone on this planet

419
00:15:03,235 --> 00:15:05,337
deserves to be self-important

420
00:15:05,404 --> 00:15:07,439
or pompous, as you like to call it,

421
00:15:07,506 --> 00:15:08,674
it's that man right there.

422
00:15:08,741 --> 00:15:10,242
LA Knight.

423
00:15:10,943 --> 00:15:12,945
[Beth] Let's define pompous here.

424
00:15:13,012 --> 00:15:15,614
All seems to be directed at Ted DiBiase.

425
00:15:15,781 --> 00:15:17,349
LA Knight holding a grudge

426
00:15:17,416 --> 00:15:18,584
top to bottom.

427
00:15:18,651 --> 00:15:19,952
[Vic] Grimes right now

428
00:15:20,019 --> 00:15:21,153
trying to feed off the energy

429
00:15:21,220 --> 00:15:22,554
of the Capitol Wrestling Center,

430
00:15:22,621 --> 00:15:23,455
but LA Knight,

431
00:15:23,522 --> 00:15:24,924
whether you love him or you hate him,

432
00:15:24,990 --> 00:15:26,692
right now is taking control

433
00:15:26,759 --> 00:15:27,860
of this matchup.

434
00:15:27,926 --> 00:15:30,129
Weathering the early storm early on

435
00:15:30,362 --> 00:15:32,464
and now is in control.

436
00:15:36,168 --> 00:15:39,038
Nice roll through by Grimes

437
00:15:39,104 --> 00:15:40,673
allowing a little bit of separation.

438
00:15:40,739 --> 00:15:43,342
Cameron Grimes just has to string
something together.

439
00:15:43,409 --> 00:15:44,877
Gets caught and gets slammed.

440
00:15:44,944 --> 00:15:47,446
Perfectly planted, center of the ring.

441
00:15:47,513 --> 00:15:50,616
[Crowd chanting]

442
00:15:56,021 --> 00:15:58,857
[Crowd chanting]

443
00:16:07,433 --> 00:16:09,868
Capitol Wrestling Center shows LA Knight

444
00:16:09,935 --> 00:16:11,270
not a lot of love.

445
00:16:11,337 --> 00:16:14,239
[Beth] It's hard to argue with that.

446
00:16:14,306 --> 00:16:15,374
LA Knight better watch it.

447
00:16:15,441 --> 00:16:16,542
It took one punch

448
00:16:16,775 --> 00:16:19,011
for DiBiase to break Armstrong's jaw

449
00:16:19,078 --> 00:16:20,446
in 1983.

450
00:16:21,914 --> 00:16:23,048
[Vic] Again--

451
00:16:25,918 --> 00:16:26,785
CWC--

452
00:16:26,852 --> 00:16:29,388
Cameron Grimes sharp elbow from Knight

453
00:16:29,455 --> 00:16:30,456
right now.

454
00:16:30,522 --> 00:16:31,890
Look at the athleticism!

455
00:16:31,957 --> 00:16:33,559
Nobody home on the Moonsault,

456
00:16:33,625 --> 00:16:34,960
took a little bit too much time.

457
00:16:35,027 --> 00:16:36,662
Beth, this could be the moment.

458
00:16:36,729 --> 00:16:37,863
This could be the moment

459
00:16:37,930 --> 00:16:39,131
for Cameron Grimes.

460
00:16:39,198 --> 00:16:40,833
[Beth] Grimes trying to take advantage

461
00:16:40,899 --> 00:16:42,101
but gasping for air,

462
00:16:42,167 --> 00:16:44,336
trying to get air back into those lungs,

463
00:16:44,403 --> 00:16:47,206
channel that energy from the CWC.

464
00:16:47,272 --> 00:16:49,708
[Vic] LA Knight back to his feet quickly.

465
00:16:49,775 --> 00:16:51,076
Million dollar champion--

466
00:16:51,143 --> 00:16:52,444
Gets caught by Grimes.

467
00:16:52,511 --> 00:16:54,780
It's Cameron Grimes who wants to carry on

468
00:16:54,847 --> 00:16:56,782
the legacy of Ted DiBiase.

469
00:16:56,849 --> 00:16:58,951
[Beth] DiBiase a legendary personality.

470
00:16:59,017 --> 00:17:00,119
It's because he held himself

471
00:17:00,185 --> 00:17:01,353
to a gold standard.

472
00:17:02,121 --> 00:17:04,123
Grimes demonstrating that

473
00:17:04,189 --> 00:17:06,325
right here in the ring right now.

474
00:17:06,525 --> 00:17:08,027
[Wade] Knight doesn't need to follow

475
00:17:08,093 --> 00:17:08,927
anyone's legacy.

476
00:17:08,994 --> 00:17:10,329
He's good enough to create his own.

477
00:17:10,396 --> 00:17:11,230
That's the difference.

478
00:17:11,296 --> 00:17:13,098
[Vic] Looking for that dream.

479
00:17:13,165 --> 00:17:14,666
Can he lock it in center of the ring?

480
00:17:16,034 --> 00:17:17,669
Knight trying his best to block it.

481
00:17:17,736 --> 00:17:19,371
Another elbow breaking the hold,

482
00:17:19,438 --> 00:17:20,539
but Grimes is relentless.

483
00:17:20,606 --> 00:17:21,807
German suplex!

484
00:17:21,874 --> 00:17:23,242
Folds up the champion.

485
00:17:23,308 --> 00:17:24,576
Challenger now rolling.

486
00:17:24,643 --> 00:17:25,544
Looks for the hurricanrana

487
00:17:25,611 --> 00:17:27,246
and connects into the cover.

488
00:17:27,312 --> 00:17:28,147
Title's on the line.

489
00:17:28,213 --> 00:17:29,882
Do we have a new champion?

490
00:17:30,215 --> 00:17:32,217
[Wade] A millisecond away

491
00:17:32,284 --> 00:17:33,919
from losing that championship

492
00:17:33,986 --> 00:17:35,187
was LA Knight.

493
00:17:35,254 --> 00:17:36,355
I think his technique

494
00:17:36,422 --> 00:17:37,289
wasn't quite there

495
00:17:37,356 --> 00:17:39,258
for the Million Dollar Dream Sleeper Hold,

496
00:17:39,324 --> 00:17:41,593
but everything else was spot on there.

497
00:17:41,660 --> 00:17:43,095
[Vic] Capitol Wrestling Center

498
00:17:43,162 --> 00:17:44,229
has been rocking.

499
00:17:44,296 --> 00:17:46,432
What a way to cap off SummerSlam week.

500
00:17:51,770 --> 00:17:53,372
One place they want to go, Beth,

501
00:17:53,439 --> 00:17:54,440
is to the moon.

502
00:17:54,506 --> 00:17:57,409
100% behind Cameron Grimes here tonight.

503
00:17:57,476 --> 00:17:58,710
And Grimes now trying to pull,

504
00:17:58,777 --> 00:18:00,846
but Knight, again, able to break the hold.

505
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,116
[Wade] This is LA Knight at his best,

506
00:18:04,183 --> 00:18:05,417
just riding out storms,

507
00:18:05,484 --> 00:18:06,452
coming out the other end

508
00:18:06,518 --> 00:18:07,986
smelling the roses.

509
00:18:08,053 --> 00:18:09,788
Perhaps I spoke too soon.

510
00:18:09,855 --> 00:18:12,458
LA Knight dished out onto the apron here.

511
00:18:12,524 --> 00:18:14,426
Cameron Grimes trying to neutralize,

512
00:18:14,493 --> 00:18:15,461
but no.

513
00:18:15,527 --> 00:18:17,296
Taking out the leg was nice.

514
00:18:17,362 --> 00:18:18,764
Straight on to the bottom rope

515
00:18:18,831 --> 00:18:20,132
once again goes Grimes.

516
00:18:20,199 --> 00:18:21,567
Face first.

517
00:18:21,633 --> 00:18:23,502
-Trying his best to--
-Cover by Knight

518
00:18:23,569 --> 00:18:25,037
for the championship.

519
00:18:25,104 --> 00:18:26,638
Another kick out by the challenger.

520
00:18:26,705 --> 00:18:28,173
And again, Cameron Grimes

521
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:29,108
fighting for more

522
00:18:29,174 --> 00:18:30,809
than just a title here tonight.

523
00:18:30,876 --> 00:18:32,377
For the legacy of Ted DiBiase.

524
00:18:32,444 --> 00:18:34,012
Could you imagine the chores

525
00:18:34,079 --> 00:18:36,048
that LA Knight would have Ted DiBiase do?

526
00:18:36,115 --> 00:18:37,516
[Wade] I've been imagining that all week.

527
00:18:37,583 --> 00:18:39,184
Life goes full circle

528
00:18:39,251 --> 00:18:40,652
when you're a millionaire.

529
00:18:40,719 --> 00:18:42,354
Pretty soon we're going to see

530
00:18:42,421 --> 00:18:44,556
a Million Dollar Man cleaning manure

531
00:18:44,623 --> 00:18:46,225
off the boots of LA Knight.

532
00:18:46,291 --> 00:18:47,493
[Vic] Don't speak too soon.

533
00:18:47,559 --> 00:18:49,061
Grimes starting to fight back.

534
00:18:49,628 --> 00:18:51,129
Oh, no.

535
00:18:51,196 --> 00:18:53,098
[Beth] LA Knight has had an answer--

536
00:18:53,432 --> 00:18:55,300
[Vic] Pulled from the middle turnbuckle.

537
00:18:55,367 --> 00:18:56,235
[Beth] For everything Grimes

538
00:18:56,301 --> 00:18:57,736
has thrown at him.

539
00:18:57,803 --> 00:18:59,204
[Vic] Grimes right back up again

540
00:18:59,271 --> 00:19:00,472
on the shoulders

541
00:19:00,539 --> 00:19:02,040
of the Million Dollar champion

542
00:19:02,107 --> 00:19:04,309
who plants the challenger into the cover.

543
00:19:04,543 --> 00:19:05,644
Ted DiBiase,

544
00:19:05,711 --> 00:19:06,578
will he be a butler?

545
00:19:06,645 --> 00:19:08,280
No, no! That was a kick out.

546
00:19:08,347 --> 00:19:10,582
So, so close to three.

547
00:19:10,649 --> 00:19:11,683
[Wade] Oh, man!

548
00:19:11,750 --> 00:19:13,485
You can see the fear in the eyes

549
00:19:13,552 --> 00:19:15,254
of the Million Dollar Man DiBiase

550
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:16,155
right there.

551
00:19:16,221 --> 00:19:18,524
[Beth] Literally after this impact here,

552
00:19:18,590 --> 00:19:20,058
Knight is struggling to cover,

553
00:19:20,125 --> 00:19:22,861
but, by a hair, Cameron Grimes

554
00:19:22,928 --> 00:19:24,596
just able to get that shoulder up

555
00:19:24,663 --> 00:19:26,698
and the reaction from DiBiase

556
00:19:26,765 --> 00:19:28,967
solidly behind Cameron Grimes.

557
00:19:29,034 --> 00:19:32,037
[crowd applauding]

558
00:19:33,338 --> 00:19:35,741
[Vic] CWC one more time

559
00:19:35,807 --> 00:19:38,610
trying to will on Cameron Grimes

560
00:19:38,677 --> 00:19:40,913
as LA Knight's looking for the ending.

561
00:19:40,979 --> 00:19:42,181
[unintelligible]

562
00:19:42,247 --> 00:19:43,081
It's countered.

563
00:19:43,148 --> 00:19:44,116
Well scouted by Grimes.

564
00:19:44,183 --> 00:19:46,351
These two know each other so very well,

565
00:19:46,418 --> 00:19:48,253
but right back in goes Knight with a knee.

566
00:19:48,820 --> 00:19:50,322
Superkick under the jaw.

567
00:19:51,523 --> 00:19:53,091
Knight bounces off, swing and a miss,

568
00:19:53,158 --> 00:19:54,593
comes right back in. Up.

569
00:19:54,660 --> 00:19:56,895
Champion looking to plant the challenger.

570
00:19:57,129 --> 00:19:58,297
Whoa.

571
00:19:59,131 --> 00:20:00,299
Knight's holding on.

572
00:20:02,734 --> 00:20:03,936
Knight coming right back in,

573
00:20:04,002 --> 00:20:05,771
gets caught, gets taken over

574
00:20:05,837 --> 00:20:07,005
into the cover.

575
00:20:07,072 --> 00:20:08,774
Fall into the cover. The count.

576
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,343
We have a new cha-- no.

577
00:20:12,311 --> 00:20:15,414
[Wade] There was so little left in Cameron

578
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:16,715
right after that boot.

579
00:20:16,782 --> 00:20:18,283
He wasn't able to hook the leg.

580
00:20:18,450 --> 00:20:19,718
Had he been able to hook that,

581
00:20:19,785 --> 00:20:20,686
we would have had

582
00:20:20,752 --> 00:20:22,054
a new Million Dollar champion.

583
00:20:22,287 --> 00:20:23,555
[Beth] You see that effort?

584
00:20:23,622 --> 00:20:25,924
Great effort put in getting back in.

585
00:20:25,991 --> 00:20:27,459
Oh, but caught him there,

586
00:20:27,526 --> 00:20:28,393
catching a little bit

587
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,229
across the bridge of the nose

588
00:20:30,295 --> 00:20:31,830
just unable to hook the leg,

589
00:20:31,897 --> 00:20:34,199
and Knight able to stay in this matchup.

590
00:20:34,633 --> 00:20:36,301
Save the Million Dollar championship.

591
00:20:36,368 --> 00:20:39,871
[Vic] Way to kick off NXT TakeOver 36.

592
00:20:43,909 --> 00:20:45,677
Cameron Grimes could be closing in

593
00:20:45,744 --> 00:20:49,248
on establishing, redefining

594
00:20:49,314 --> 00:20:50,582
the million dollar legacy.

595
00:20:52,117 --> 00:20:54,052
Grimes with so much tension

596
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:55,087
behind every single one

597
00:20:55,153 --> 00:20:57,289
of these precision kicks to the chest

598
00:20:57,356 --> 00:20:58,490
of LA Knight.

599
00:20:58,957 --> 00:21:00,826
[Beth] LA Knight just on rubber legs

600
00:21:00,892 --> 00:21:01,860
at this point.

601
00:21:03,762 --> 00:21:07,132
[Vic] Grimes can sense victory.

602
00:21:07,199 --> 00:21:08,700
Knight could be sensing defeat.

603
00:21:08,767 --> 00:21:09,768
Out of desperation,

604
00:21:09,835 --> 00:21:11,536
holding onto the ropes is Knight--

605
00:21:11,603 --> 00:21:13,038
[Wade] Trying to debag him.

606
00:21:13,572 --> 00:21:15,274
[Vic] Turning around Knight.

607
00:21:15,340 --> 00:21:16,942
Up goes Grimes and-- oh.

608
00:21:18,277 --> 00:21:19,978
Horrible landing for Grimes.

609
00:21:22,648 --> 00:21:24,983
You can just sense the hostility

610
00:21:25,050 --> 00:21:26,752
between both of these competitors

611
00:21:26,818 --> 00:21:27,653
here tonight.

612
00:21:27,719 --> 00:21:29,588
[Wade] Almost had a moment of indecency

613
00:21:29,655 --> 00:21:31,223
here in the CWC,

614
00:21:31,290 --> 00:21:33,191
but now in a precarious position,

615
00:21:33,258 --> 00:21:34,259
both men.

616
00:21:34,326 --> 00:21:36,862
Busted open is Cameron Grimes

617
00:21:36,928 --> 00:21:39,097
getting a pounding on that chest.

618
00:21:39,164 --> 00:21:40,565
[Beth] Like a shark to blood,

619
00:21:41,066 --> 00:21:42,734
LA Knight enjoying this.

620
00:21:44,102 --> 00:21:45,737
[Vic] Grimes with one fist

621
00:21:45,804 --> 00:21:47,339
able to create that separation

622
00:21:47,406 --> 00:21:49,374
he desperately needs is Grimes.

623
00:21:50,542 --> 00:21:51,943
But what's Knight thinking?

624
00:21:52,010 --> 00:21:54,079
Oh, no. What athleticism.

625
00:21:54,146 --> 00:21:56,348
-At the top-- Oh!
-Whoa.

626
00:21:57,749 --> 00:21:59,318
If Knight can get into the cover,

627
00:21:59,384 --> 00:22:00,519
this one could be over.

628
00:22:01,053 --> 00:22:02,154
See the look of angst

629
00:22:02,220 --> 00:22:03,455
on the face of DiBiase?

630
00:22:03,522 --> 00:22:04,990
Oh, he just kicked out.

631
00:22:05,057 --> 00:22:06,258
Woo.

632
00:22:07,159 --> 00:22:09,528
That was as close as close gets.

633
00:22:09,594 --> 00:22:12,531
[Wade] Saving the skin of Ted DiBiase

634
00:22:12,597 --> 00:22:13,999
once again.

635
00:22:14,066 --> 00:22:15,867
[Beth] Take a look at the height here.

636
00:22:15,934 --> 00:22:17,002
Cameron Grimes

637
00:22:17,069 --> 00:22:20,639
essentially taking a Moonsault fall

638
00:22:20,706 --> 00:22:22,607
all the way from the top rope.

639
00:22:25,344 --> 00:22:26,578
[Vic] What must be going through the mind

640
00:22:26,645 --> 00:22:28,680
right now, of LA Knight?

641
00:22:28,747 --> 00:22:30,816
[Wade] Well, he knows how close he is.

642
00:22:30,882 --> 00:22:31,850
He knows this match

643
00:22:31,917 --> 00:22:33,385
is ripe for the taking.

644
00:22:33,452 --> 00:22:34,753
He realizes it.

645
00:22:34,820 --> 00:22:35,821
This is your moment

646
00:22:35,887 --> 00:22:37,222
to put this one to bed

647
00:22:37,289 --> 00:22:38,357
and gain yourself

648
00:22:38,423 --> 00:22:40,592
the greatest butler of all time.

649
00:22:40,659 --> 00:22:43,161
[Vic] Knight measuring Cameron Grimes,

650
00:22:43,228 --> 00:22:45,564
looking to put an exclamation point

651
00:22:45,630 --> 00:22:47,599
on a million dollar victory.

652
00:22:47,666 --> 00:22:49,701
Grimes doesn't quite know where he's at.

653
00:22:49,768 --> 00:22:51,036
Looks like he's going to get caught.

654
00:22:51,103 --> 00:22:52,871
BLT counter, looking for the backslide.

655
00:22:52,938 --> 00:22:54,473
Can Grimes get the backslide?

656
00:22:54,539 --> 00:22:56,341
[Beth] Trying to get those hips moved.

657
00:22:56,408 --> 00:22:57,442
[Vic] Coming back in--

658
00:22:57,509 --> 00:22:58,543
Million Dollar Dream!

659
00:22:58,610 --> 00:22:59,811
This time it's locked in.

660
00:22:59,878 --> 00:23:01,279
This time it's cinched.

661
00:23:01,346 --> 00:23:03,949
[Beth] Time for LA Knight to go to bed.

662
00:23:06,685 --> 00:23:08,086
[Vic] Grimes is squeezing,

663
00:23:08,153 --> 00:23:09,755
trying to put down Knight.

664
00:23:14,326 --> 00:23:15,260
LA-- No!

665
00:23:15,327 --> 00:23:16,661
Grimes able to relinquish the hold.

666
00:23:17,596 --> 00:23:19,264
Grimes fighting for a championship.

667
00:23:19,331 --> 00:23:20,465
Fighting for a legacy.

668
00:23:20,532 --> 00:23:22,267
Fighting for Ted DiBiase.

669
00:23:23,034 --> 00:23:24,636
[Wade] LA making it to the rope.

670
00:23:24,703 --> 00:23:26,304
Break this one up, referee.

671
00:23:26,371 --> 00:23:28,006
[Vic] Knight trying to kick free

672
00:23:28,073 --> 00:23:29,374
into the cover, shoulders down.

673
00:23:29,441 --> 00:23:32,310
Shoulders are down-- oh.

674
00:23:33,044 --> 00:23:34,413
[Wade] Still with the hold.

675
00:23:34,479 --> 00:23:35,947
[Vic] Did you ever see anything like that?

676
00:23:36,248 --> 00:23:37,816
[Beth] Phenomenal body awareness

677
00:23:37,883 --> 00:23:39,050
from Cameron Grimes.

678
00:23:39,117 --> 00:23:40,318
Like an anaconda.

679
00:23:40,385 --> 00:23:41,820
[Vic] The champion is fading.

680
00:23:41,887 --> 00:23:43,355
The champion is fading.

681
00:23:43,422 --> 00:23:45,357
The million dollar dream

682
00:23:46,291 --> 00:23:48,026
cinched in by the challenger.

683
00:23:48,093 --> 00:23:49,895
Will dreams come true tonight?

684
00:23:50,095 --> 00:23:51,129
Oh.

685
00:23:51,196 --> 00:23:52,764
Cameron Grimes.

686
00:23:53,331 --> 00:23:55,233
[Wade] Somehow, some way,

687
00:23:55,300 --> 00:23:58,470
Knight just about summoning the strength

688
00:23:58,537 --> 00:23:59,805
to force his way out.

689
00:23:59,871 --> 00:24:02,274
What a gallant effort for Cameron Grimes

690
00:24:02,340 --> 00:24:03,975
to hold on for so long.

691
00:24:04,042 --> 00:24:05,310
[crowd cheering]

692
00:24:05,377 --> 00:24:06,978
Finally the blood rushing back

693
00:24:07,045 --> 00:24:08,780
into the brain of LA Knight.

694
00:24:09,147 --> 00:24:11,616
Getting his bearings once again.

695
00:24:14,519 --> 00:24:15,754
What's he doing?

696
00:24:16,855 --> 00:24:18,890
The only thing he cares about.

697
00:24:18,957 --> 00:24:21,092
[Crowd boos]

698
00:24:23,462 --> 00:24:24,996
[referee] No, no, no, no, no.

699
00:24:25,063 --> 00:24:27,165
-Not like this.
-Get that thing out of here!

700
00:24:27,466 --> 00:24:29,201
Get that thing out of here.

701
00:24:32,370 --> 00:24:33,805
You can't bring that--

702
00:24:33,872 --> 00:24:35,874
Give me this. Give me that.

703
00:24:36,074 --> 00:24:37,409
[Vic] Oh.

704
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:39,878
[Wade] High kick from Cameron Grimes.

705
00:24:40,045 --> 00:24:41,947
Knight spilling to the outside,

706
00:24:42,013 --> 00:24:42,848
perhaps saving himself.

707
00:24:42,914 --> 00:24:44,683
That championship left--

708
00:24:46,117 --> 00:24:47,953
Oh!

709
00:24:48,019 --> 00:24:50,388
[crowd cheers]

710
00:24:56,161 --> 00:24:59,831
[crowd chanting]

711
00:24:59,898 --> 00:25:00,966
[Vic] What is that?

712
00:25:01,032 --> 00:25:02,934
Oh take a look at this.

713
00:25:03,001 --> 00:25:04,603
It's the original.

714
00:25:08,773 --> 00:25:09,975
The Million Dollar Dream

715
00:25:10,041 --> 00:25:11,877
locked in by Ted DiBiase.

716
00:25:11,943 --> 00:25:13,712
[Wade] The referee missed all of it.

717
00:25:13,778 --> 00:25:15,447
[Vic] Referee was distracted.

718
00:25:15,514 --> 00:25:17,616
[crowd boos]

719
00:25:22,087 --> 00:25:24,055
Cave in.

720
00:25:24,356 --> 00:25:25,991
-No.
-Cover.

721
00:25:26,057 --> 00:25:27,259
-Not like this.
-Oh, yes.

722
00:25:27,325 --> 00:25:28,927
-Count.
-One, two…

723
00:25:28,994 --> 00:25:30,028
[Vic] We've got

724
00:25:30,095 --> 00:25:32,597
a new Million Dollar champion.

725
00:25:32,931 --> 00:25:34,132
[man] Here is your winner,

726
00:25:34,199 --> 00:25:39,838
the new Million Dollar champion,

727
00:25:39,905 --> 00:25:43,909
Cameron Grimes.

728
00:25:44,142 --> 00:25:46,444
[Vic] A look of disbelief

729
00:25:46,511 --> 00:25:50,715
across the face of Cameron Grimes.

730
00:25:51,583 --> 00:25:53,585
Everything Grimes has gone through

731
00:25:53,985 --> 00:25:55,720
for this moment.

732
00:25:55,787 --> 00:25:58,123
The ups, the downs,

733
00:25:58,189 --> 00:26:01,893
but tonight it's Cameron Grimes' moment

734
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,595
with Ted DiBiase.

735
00:26:03,662 --> 00:26:05,797
[Beth] Well, talk about earning it,

736
00:26:05,864 --> 00:26:07,165
LA Knight here

737
00:26:07,232 --> 00:26:09,768
struggling to stay in this,

738
00:26:10,368 --> 00:26:12,170
but was able to break up

739
00:26:12,237 --> 00:26:13,805
the hold on Cameron Grimes.

740
00:26:14,739 --> 00:26:16,775
[Vic] In all of this back and forth,

741
00:26:16,841 --> 00:26:18,944
it would lead to LA Knight

742
00:26:19,010 --> 00:26:21,212
taking too much time in his own right.

743
00:26:21,279 --> 00:26:23,048
Getting caught by Cameron Grimes.

744
00:26:23,114 --> 00:26:24,916
That would go the outside

745
00:26:24,983 --> 00:26:26,284
and to Wade's point,

746
00:26:26,585 --> 00:26:28,920
referee didn't see it, he was distracted.

747
00:26:28,987 --> 00:26:30,088
But Ted DiBiase

748
00:26:30,155 --> 00:26:31,523
getting a little bit of payback

749
00:26:31,590 --> 00:26:33,692
on LA Knight.

750
00:26:33,758 --> 00:26:35,093
[Beth] Glorious karma

751
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:36,895
coming into effect right here.

752
00:26:36,962 --> 00:26:38,863
I've got to tell you, I enjoyed it.

753
00:26:39,097 --> 00:26:40,865
Knight can take that trash attitude.

754
00:26:40,932 --> 00:26:42,767
We see Ted DiBiase…

755
00:26:43,568 --> 00:26:44,869
[Vic] A bit more payback.

756
00:26:44,936 --> 00:26:46,671
[Beth] Showing him how it's done.

757
00:26:46,738 --> 00:26:48,473
It's never been applied better

758
00:26:48,540 --> 00:26:50,342
by the man who invented it.

759
00:26:50,408 --> 00:26:52,110
"The Million Dollar Dream".

760
00:26:52,177 --> 00:26:54,512
[Vic] Then the closing moments.

761
00:26:54,579 --> 00:26:56,314
A move worth a million dollars.

762
00:26:56,381 --> 00:26:57,983
Bam! That cave-in

763
00:26:58,049 --> 00:26:59,684
for Cameron Grimes,

764
00:26:59,751 --> 00:27:01,987
who can now add to the legacy

765
00:27:02,053 --> 00:27:03,421
in his own right.

766
00:27:03,488 --> 00:27:06,324
What a moment for Cameron Grimes,

767
00:27:06,391 --> 00:27:08,860
here at NXT TakeOver 36.

768
00:27:08,927 --> 00:27:10,862
[Wade] Well, let me be the first to say

769
00:27:10,929 --> 00:27:13,231
that the million dollar legacy,

770
00:27:13,298 --> 00:27:14,766
for what it's worth,

771
00:27:14,833 --> 00:27:17,068
is being flushed down the toilet

772
00:27:17,135 --> 00:27:18,870
before our very eyes.

773
00:27:18,937 --> 00:27:20,772
[Beth] You've never been more wrong.

774
00:27:20,839 --> 00:27:22,040
Cameron Grimes

775
00:27:22,107 --> 00:27:24,476
is taking the million dollar legacy

776
00:27:24,542 --> 00:27:28,680
straight to the moon.

777
00:27:40,692 --> 00:27:44,796
[crowd cheers]

778
00:27:47,265 --> 00:27:50,135
[narrator] Now, WWE drops

784

[man] You want some?

785

Come get some.

786
00:28:04,582 --> 00:28:06,718
[John Cena's music plays]

787
00:28:06,785 --> 00:28:10,522
[narrator] Go to wwe.com/nft for details.

788
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:17,729
[Wade] Let's head back to earlier today.

789
00:28:17,796 --> 00:28:20,065
Adam Cole showing up at the CWC

790
00:28:20,131 --> 00:28:22,434
ahead of this evening's grudge match.

791
00:28:22,500 --> 00:28:24,436
[Beth] O'Reilly in the headspace,

792
00:28:24,502 --> 00:28:26,037
cantered and prepared

793
00:28:26,104 --> 00:28:28,373
to finally put Adam Cole

794
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,675
in the rear-view forever.

795
00:28:30,742 --> 00:28:32,310
[Vic] Talk about grudges. Weeks ago

796
00:28:32,377 --> 00:28:34,112
as the kick heard 'round the world.

797
00:28:34,179 --> 00:28:35,914
Former friends, former partners,

798
00:28:35,980 --> 00:28:37,582
turned by jealousy.

799
00:28:37,649 --> 00:28:38,883
They're going to meet one-on-one

800
00:28:38,950 --> 00:28:40,752
for the NXT Women's title.

801
00:28:43,555 --> 00:28:46,191
[tense music]

802
00:28:46,391 --> 00:28:48,093
[Kai] I'm no one's sidekick.

803
00:28:49,961 --> 00:28:51,329
[González] I have dominated

804
00:28:51,396 --> 00:28:53,164
every single person

805
00:28:53,231 --> 00:28:55,333
who has stepped up to the plate.

806
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,436
[Vic] González makes history.

807
00:28:58,503 --> 00:28:59,804
[González] All I have to say is,

808
00:28:59,871 --> 00:29:01,106
keep them coming.

809
00:29:01,439 --> 00:29:03,641
[woman] 18 months ago you debuted

810
00:29:03,708 --> 00:29:05,577
and you've been absolutely unstoppable

811
00:29:05,643 --> 00:29:06,611
ever since.

812
00:29:06,678 --> 00:29:09,981
Who is woman enough to challenge Raquel?

813
00:29:10,048 --> 00:29:11,149
Huh?

814
00:29:11,216 --> 00:29:13,284
You have defeated former champions

815
00:29:13,351 --> 00:29:16,821
in Rhea Ripley, Iyo Sky, Ember Moon

816
00:29:16,888 --> 00:29:17,989
and everyone else

817
00:29:18,056 --> 00:29:19,724
that has stood in your path.

818
00:29:19,791 --> 00:29:21,826
As long as I have your back,

819
00:29:21,893 --> 00:29:23,962
you will always be champion.

820
00:29:24,963 --> 00:29:26,397
[Vic] What the hell?

821
00:29:26,464 --> 00:29:30,268
[Wade] Dakota Kai has been in the shadows

822
00:29:30,335 --> 00:29:31,903
for way too long.

823
00:29:31,970 --> 00:29:33,104
[Kai] If it wasn't for me,

824
00:29:33,171 --> 00:29:35,740
Raquel González would still be nothing.

825
00:29:36,674 --> 00:29:38,543
[González] This is your new champion.

826
00:29:38,610 --> 00:29:40,211
[Kai] All I wanted

827
00:29:40,278 --> 00:29:42,347
was for Raquel to return the favor.

828
00:29:42,413 --> 00:29:44,883
I plucked her out of obscurity

829
00:29:44,949 --> 00:29:46,284
and put her in the spotlight

830
00:29:46,351 --> 00:29:49,988
and she selfishly stole that opportunity

831
00:29:50,054 --> 00:29:51,322
from me.

832
00:29:51,756 --> 00:29:53,391
After giving her everything.

833
00:29:54,092 --> 00:29:55,627
That should have been me.

834
00:29:55,693 --> 00:29:58,396
[González] The Raquel González era

835
00:29:58,463 --> 00:30:01,032
has officially begun.

836
00:30:01,432 --> 00:30:03,568
You're so wrapped up in your own world

837
00:30:03,635 --> 00:30:05,870
you're so oblivious to the fact

838
00:30:05,937 --> 00:30:08,673
that the person standing right next to you

839
00:30:08,740 --> 00:30:10,642
is about to kick your head off.

840
00:30:11,376 --> 00:30:12,644
Bang.

841
00:30:12,710 --> 00:30:14,546
[Kai] I'm no sidekick.

842
00:30:14,612 --> 00:30:16,781
[Vic] Oh! González is here.

843
00:30:16,848 --> 00:30:17,715
[González] Dakota Kai,

844
00:30:17,782 --> 00:30:21,019
you will never beat Raquel González.

845
00:30:21,085 --> 00:30:22,754
You will never have this.

846
00:30:22,821 --> 00:30:23,888
If you wanted a chance

847
00:30:23,955 --> 00:30:25,557
all you had to do was ask.

848
00:30:25,623 --> 00:30:28,193
I am no longer a star in the making,

849
00:30:28,259 --> 00:30:30,461
I am a superstar.

850
00:30:30,762 --> 00:30:34,899
You use people and then you get jealous

851
00:30:34,966 --> 00:30:36,935
when they become bigger stars than you.

852
00:30:37,001 --> 00:30:39,537
[Kai] Write whatever narrative you want.

853
00:30:39,604 --> 00:30:41,539
Villain, jealous--

854
00:30:41,606 --> 00:30:43,474
Call me whatever you want.

855
00:30:43,541 --> 00:30:45,510
At TakeOver 36,

856
00:30:45,577 --> 00:30:49,480
you will call me NXT Women's champion.

857
00:30:50,014 --> 00:30:51,149
[González] I'm looking forward

858
00:30:51,216 --> 00:30:52,550
to the challenge,

859
00:30:53,551 --> 00:30:54,886
sidekick.

860
00:30:54,953 --> 00:30:56,888
[González] Who is woman enough

861
00:30:56,955 --> 00:30:58,489
to challenge Raquel?

862
00:30:58,556 --> 00:30:59,457
At NXT TakeOver,

863
00:30:59,524 --> 00:31:00,625
you'll get your chance.

864
00:31:00,692 --> 00:31:02,560
[Kai] You're looking at the next

865
00:31:02,627 --> 00:31:05,129
NXT Women's champion.

866
00:31:05,196 --> 00:31:08,566
I am going to tear you apart.

867
00:31:08,633 --> 00:31:13,638
[dramatic music]

868
00:31:14,672 --> 00:31:18,009
[cheering]

869
00:31:18,643 --> 00:31:19,878
[Vic] Wade, simply put,

870
00:31:19,944 --> 00:31:23,081
will tonight be the night for Dakota Kai?

871
00:31:24,515 --> 00:31:26,451
[Wade] González would not have achieved

872
00:31:26,517 --> 00:31:28,119
all the things she has done

873
00:31:28,186 --> 00:31:31,289
if Dakota Kai had not been by her side.

874
00:31:31,356 --> 00:31:34,826
Tonight González does not have the crutch

875
00:31:34,892 --> 00:31:36,761
of Dakota Kai to lean on.

876
00:31:36,828 --> 00:31:39,530
Here's the key, Dakota taught Raquel

877
00:31:39,597 --> 00:31:41,266
everything Raquel knows.

878
00:31:41,332 --> 00:31:43,301
Dakota did not teach everything

879
00:31:43,368 --> 00:31:44,569
Dakota knows.

880
00:31:47,472 --> 00:31:48,773
[Vic] Tonight only courtesy

881
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,775

882
00:31:50,842 --> 00:31:52,010

and the Cole-O'Reilly match.

888
00:31:59,751 --> 00:32:00,618
Get enough correct,

889
00:32:00,685 --> 00:32:01,586

and play free for $10,000 tonight.

894
00:32:14,265 --> 00:32:16,100
If Dakota Kai had any nerves, Beth,

895
00:32:16,167 --> 00:32:18,136
she is certainly not showing them.

896
00:32:18,202 --> 00:32:19,637
[music]

897
00:32:19,704 --> 00:32:22,140
[Beth] Laser focused here is Dakota Kai.

898
00:32:22,206 --> 00:32:23,841
She's going to need it.

899
00:32:23,908 --> 00:32:30,381
[Raquel González's music plays]

900
00:32:30,782 --> 00:32:33,017
[cheering]

901
00:32:33,084 --> 00:32:33,952
[Vic] Point blank.

902
00:32:34,018 --> 00:32:35,620
I'm throwing this to both.

903
00:32:35,687 --> 00:32:37,422
Is tonight the toughest test

904
00:32:37,488 --> 00:32:38,990
to the championship reign

905
00:32:39,057 --> 00:32:40,291
of Raquel González?

906
00:32:40,358 --> 00:32:42,093
[Beth] Listen, Raquel González

907
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,262
has been nothing short of dominant

908
00:32:44,329 --> 00:32:45,463
for over a year.

909
00:32:45,530 --> 00:32:46,965
Since winning the NXT championship,

910
00:32:47,031 --> 00:32:48,533
she's toppled some of the best

911
00:32:48,599 --> 00:32:49,701
in the Women's division.

912
00:32:49,767 --> 00:32:51,169
However, tonight González

913
00:32:51,235 --> 00:32:52,203
has a new challenge

914
00:32:52,270 --> 00:32:54,205
in the form of a shattered alliance.

915
00:32:54,272 --> 00:32:55,807
She's got to compartmentalize

916
00:32:55,873 --> 00:32:58,176
the emotional portion of this

917
00:32:58,242 --> 00:33:00,111
and we've seen Dakota Kai

918
00:33:00,178 --> 00:33:01,379
do this in the past.

919
00:33:01,446 --> 00:33:02,513
She's most dangerous

920
00:33:02,580 --> 00:33:04,015
when she's manipulating the feelings

921
00:33:04,082 --> 00:33:05,049
of her opponent.

922
00:33:05,116 --> 00:33:06,284
[Wade] I agree with Beth.

923
00:33:06,351 --> 00:33:07,485
Raquel González

924
00:33:07,552 --> 00:33:09,087
has been dominance personified,

925
00:33:09,153 --> 00:33:10,488
but nobody knows Raquel

926
00:33:10,555 --> 00:33:12,023
as well as Dakota Kai,

927
00:33:12,090 --> 00:33:14,058
strengths and weaknesses.

928
00:33:15,526 --> 00:33:16,828
[bell rings]

929
00:33:16,894 --> 00:33:17,962
[woman] The following contest

930
00:33:18,029 --> 00:33:19,697
scheduled for one fall

931
00:33:19,764 --> 00:33:26,504
is for the NXT Women's championship.

932
00:33:26,571 --> 00:33:28,973
[crowd cheers]

933
00:33:31,209 --> 00:33:32,944
[woman] Introducing the challenger,

934
00:33:33,511 --> 00:33:35,446
from Auckland, New Zealand,

935
00:33:35,513 --> 00:33:38,082
Dakota Kai.

936
00:33:38,149 --> 00:33:40,785
[crowd cheers]

937
00:33:47,191 --> 00:33:48,893
Her opponent,

938
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,295
from Rio Grande Valley, Texas,

939
00:33:51,362 --> 00:33:56,134
she is the NXT Women's champion,

940
00:33:56,768 --> 00:34:01,339
Raquel González.

941
00:34:01,572 --> 00:34:04,942
[crowd cheering and booing]

942
00:34:05,009 --> 00:34:07,078
[Vic] Champion and challenger

943
00:34:07,145 --> 00:34:09,514
have not stopped staring at one another

944
00:34:09,580 --> 00:34:11,816
since they both entered the ring.

945
00:34:17,321 --> 00:34:19,323
It's all about the NXT Women's title.

946
00:34:19,390 --> 00:34:21,025
Of course they were teammates,

947
00:34:21,092 --> 00:34:22,493
as we talked about being former partners,

948
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:23,461
were the first-ever

949
00:34:23,528 --> 00:34:25,596
NXT Women's tag team champions.

950
00:34:25,763 --> 00:34:27,799
[Beth] History makers right here.

951
00:34:32,470 --> 00:34:35,540
[bell rings]

952
00:34:43,881 --> 00:34:48,286
[crowd cheering]

953
00:34:55,660 --> 00:34:56,594
[Beth] Dakota Kai

954
00:34:56,661 --> 00:34:58,096
looking to escalate this quickly.

955
00:34:58,162 --> 00:34:59,096
[Vic] Wade, as we talked about

956
00:34:59,163 --> 00:34:59,997
maybe some mind games

957
00:35:00,064 --> 00:35:01,265
being played by the challenger

958
00:35:01,332 --> 00:35:02,200
who knows González

959
00:35:02,266 --> 00:35:03,434
maybe better than anyone.

960
00:35:03,501 --> 00:35:05,837
[Wade] Kai has been a step ahead of her

961
00:35:05,903 --> 00:35:09,540
every point of this controversial feud

962
00:35:09,607 --> 00:35:11,142
that they have going on

963
00:35:11,209 --> 00:35:13,811
and she's starting this off with intent.

964
00:35:13,878 --> 00:35:15,780
[Vic] Now González trying to
bring her hands

965
00:35:15,847 --> 00:35:16,881
on the challenger

966
00:35:17,648 --> 00:35:19,517
and González repeatedly--

967
00:35:19,584 --> 00:35:20,718
Whoa, there goes Kai.

968
00:35:21,419 --> 00:35:23,521
Kai going to have to use her speed

969
00:35:23,588 --> 00:35:24,422
in this matchup

970
00:35:24,489 --> 00:35:25,423
because it's the obvious size

971
00:35:25,490 --> 00:35:26,324
and strength advantage

972
00:35:26,390 --> 00:35:28,192
belonging to Raquel González

973
00:35:28,259 --> 00:35:30,094
who was looking for a huge lariat.

974
00:35:30,895 --> 00:35:32,763
[Wade] Kai just dove into González

975
00:35:32,830 --> 00:35:33,664
in from the off

976
00:35:33,731 --> 00:35:35,766
knowing exactly how González

977
00:35:35,833 --> 00:35:38,603
was going to react like a rampaging bull.

978
00:35:38,803 --> 00:35:42,273
[crowd chanting "Dakota"]

979
00:35:42,340 --> 00:35:43,674
Of course, Dakota Kai

980
00:35:43,741 --> 00:35:45,076
she can't win the championship

981
00:35:45,143 --> 00:35:46,010
via count out

982
00:35:46,077 --> 00:35:49,747
and González showcasing her brute strength

983
00:35:49,814 --> 00:35:51,048
up and over, nice counter though

984
00:35:51,115 --> 00:35:52,016
by Dakota Kai,

985
00:35:52,083 --> 00:35:53,317
Kai now looking for a submission.

986
00:35:53,384 --> 00:35:54,952
[Wade] Straight across arm breaker.

987
00:35:55,019 --> 00:35:55,987
[Vic] Centre of the ring the submission,

988
00:35:56,053 --> 00:35:58,556
González having to try to turn her body

989
00:35:58,623 --> 00:36:00,057
to reposition herself,

990
00:36:00,124 --> 00:36:02,593
González now showcasing that strength

991
00:36:02,793 --> 00:36:03,895
one more time,

992
00:36:03,961 --> 00:36:05,997
and Kai able to break out for a moment.

993
00:36:06,063 --> 00:36:07,031
[Beth] Great strategy from Kai

994
00:36:07,098 --> 00:36:08,699
trying to isolate a body part,

995
00:36:08,766 --> 00:36:10,101
but González again.

996
00:36:10,168 --> 00:36:11,302
Oh!

997
00:36:11,369 --> 00:36:13,304
[Vic] That scorpion kick between the eyes

998
00:36:13,371 --> 00:36:15,506
and a big boot misses, and again,

999
00:36:15,573 --> 00:36:16,807
Kai rolls to the outside.

1000
00:36:16,874 --> 00:36:19,310
[Wade] It's a move, a brilliant strategy

1001
00:36:19,377 --> 00:36:21,379
to start this off from Dakota Kai

1002
00:36:21,445 --> 00:36:23,581
just frustrating the champ in there.

1003
00:36:23,648 --> 00:36:26,684
Look at Raquel González in that ring.

1004
00:36:26,751 --> 00:36:29,153
Just a ball of fury as Dakota Kai

1005
00:36:29,220 --> 00:36:31,289
continually stings the champ.

1006
00:36:32,657 --> 00:36:34,759
[Vic] Again, Kai taking her sweet time

1007
00:36:34,825 --> 00:36:35,893
the referee's count of five

1008
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:37,929
frustrating the champion.

1009
00:36:37,995 --> 00:36:39,597
Are we starting to see a crack

1010
00:36:39,664 --> 00:36:40,998
in the champion's armor?

1011
00:36:42,967 --> 00:36:44,769
[Wade] 100% we're seeing a crack

1012
00:36:44,835 --> 00:36:45,670
in the champ's armor

1013
00:36:45,736 --> 00:36:47,572
and we've seen it over the last weeks,

1014
00:36:47,638 --> 00:36:48,973
we're seeing it again tonight.

1015
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:50,241
Raquel González

1016
00:36:50,308 --> 00:36:53,244
has always been ice cold, stoic,

1017
00:36:53,311 --> 00:36:54,345
always in control.

1018
00:36:54,412 --> 00:36:56,280
[Vic] Right now she's in control,

1019
00:36:56,347 --> 00:36:57,481
the fall away slam

1020
00:36:57,548 --> 00:36:58,449
wiping out the challenger.

1021
00:36:58,516 --> 00:37:01,085
[Wade] Let's go back in time.

1022
00:37:01,152 --> 00:37:02,887
Let's not forget she's been rampaging.

1023
00:37:02,954 --> 00:37:05,256
She's been screaming into the mic.

1024
00:37:05,323 --> 00:37:08,092
Dakota Kai is fully under the skin

1025
00:37:08,159 --> 00:37:09,493
and into the mind of the champ,

1026
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:10,561
Raquel González.

1027
00:37:10,628 --> 00:37:12,597
Who knows how she is going to react

1028
00:37:12,663 --> 00:37:13,998
to that. She's never been put

1029
00:37:14,065 --> 00:37:15,266
in that position before.

1030
00:37:15,333 --> 00:37:16,901
[Vic] Kai on the top rope looking to fly.

1031
00:37:17,335 --> 00:37:18,269
High crossbody

1032
00:37:18,336 --> 00:37:20,438
and González rolls through.

1033
00:37:20,504 --> 00:37:22,006
-My god. Look at her.
-Wow.

1034
00:37:22,073 --> 00:37:23,341
Back to her feet

1035
00:37:23,674 --> 00:37:25,676
just tossing around Dakota Kai

1036
00:37:25,743 --> 00:37:26,844
like a rag doll.

1037
00:37:27,011 --> 00:37:28,446
[Vic] Kai trying her best to block.

1038
00:37:28,512 --> 00:37:30,214
She's up high on the shoulders

1039
00:37:30,281 --> 00:37:31,482
of Raquel González

1040
00:37:31,549 --> 00:37:33,217
as Kai continuing still to fight,

1041
00:37:33,284 --> 00:37:34,185
still to struggle,

1042
00:37:34,252 --> 00:37:35,953
but finally just gets planted

1043
00:37:36,020 --> 00:37:37,255
on the top turnbuckle.

1044
00:37:37,321 --> 00:37:38,322
[Wade] You get the impression

1045
00:37:38,389 --> 00:37:39,824
perhaps Raquel González

1046
00:37:39,890 --> 00:37:41,592
has tweaked something in that right arm,

1047
00:37:41,659 --> 00:37:42,927
the shoulder, the biceps

1048
00:37:42,994 --> 00:37:44,195
something having difficulty

1049
00:37:44,261 --> 00:37:45,997
completing that military press

1050
00:37:46,063 --> 00:37:47,531
on Dakota Kai there.

1051
00:37:47,598 --> 00:37:49,600
Don't think Kai has a-- Wow!

1052
00:37:49,667 --> 00:37:51,702
[Vic] No problem tossing Kai

1053
00:37:51,769 --> 00:37:52,737
out of the corner.

1054
00:37:52,803 --> 00:37:53,804
[Beth] Talk about a crack

1055
00:37:53,871 --> 00:37:54,972
in the armor of González,

1056
00:37:55,039 --> 00:37:56,874
Kai might have a crack in the rib.

1057
00:37:57,808 --> 00:38:00,911
[Vic] Dakota Kai had it scouted

1058
00:38:00,978 --> 00:38:03,147
as González was looking to climb.

1059
00:38:03,214 --> 00:38:04,982
[Wade] Now attacking the other arm.

1060
00:38:05,049 --> 00:38:06,651
[Vic] And now Dakota--

1061
00:38:06,717 --> 00:38:08,052
What a cross!

1062
00:38:08,119 --> 00:38:10,721
Yakuza kick hit perfectly,

1063
00:38:10,788 --> 00:38:12,523
González to the outside.

1064
00:38:14,058 --> 00:38:15,693
And again Dakota Kai knows

1065
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:17,428
she can only win the championship

1066
00:38:17,495 --> 00:38:18,429
pinfall, submission.

1067
00:38:18,496 --> 00:38:20,398
Got to get González back in the ring.

1068
00:38:20,464 --> 00:38:21,732
González is out.

1069
00:38:21,799 --> 00:38:23,634
[Wade] That was a replay of the kick

1070
00:38:23,701 --> 00:38:24,902
heard around the world

1071
00:38:24,969 --> 00:38:26,837
that started this whole breakdown

1072
00:38:26,904 --> 00:38:27,738
between the two.

1073
00:38:27,805 --> 00:38:28,706
[Vic] Referee's to five.

1074
00:38:28,773 --> 00:38:30,408
[Beth] How fortunate for González.

1075
00:38:30,474 --> 00:38:31,676
She may have saved

1076
00:38:31,742 --> 00:38:33,544
the NXT Women's championship.

1077
00:38:33,611 --> 00:38:35,346
[Vic] Dakota Kai trying her best.

1078
00:38:35,413 --> 00:38:36,781
At the count of nine

1079
00:38:36,847 --> 00:38:38,249
able to get in the ring,

1080
00:38:38,316 --> 00:38:39,850
rolls the champion over.

1081
00:38:39,917 --> 00:38:41,652
Do we have a new champion tonight?

1082
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,255
González just kicked out at two.

1083
00:38:44,322 --> 00:38:45,723
You got to imagine, Wade,

1084
00:38:45,790 --> 00:38:47,291
and you can see the look in the eyes

1085
00:38:47,358 --> 00:38:48,292
of Dakota Kai.

1086
00:38:48,359 --> 00:38:50,861
If Dakota Kai would have hit that kick

1087
00:38:50,928 --> 00:38:52,763
and González would have fallen in the ring

1088
00:38:52,830 --> 00:38:55,132
we may have had a new Women's champion.

1089
00:38:55,199 --> 00:38:56,901
[Beth] Check out the impact here.

1090
00:38:56,967 --> 00:38:58,436
I want to point that out,

1091
00:38:58,502 --> 00:39:00,137
and we see again the head snap,

1092
00:39:00,204 --> 00:39:02,573
and González just tumbles to the ground.

1093
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:04,775
[Wade] The sheer size difference

1094
00:39:04,842 --> 00:39:06,177
of González, I'll admit,

1095
00:39:06,243 --> 00:39:08,379
it's so difficult for Dakota Kai

1096
00:39:08,446 --> 00:39:10,314
to pick her up, get her back in the ring

1097
00:39:10,381 --> 00:39:11,449
in a timely fashion

1098
00:39:11,515 --> 00:39:13,117
in order to get that pinfall.

1099
00:39:13,184 --> 00:39:16,020
You're right, Vic, that yakuza kick,

1100
00:39:16,087 --> 00:39:17,021
connects in the ring

1101
00:39:17,088 --> 00:39:18,856
and Raquel stays in the ring,

1102
00:39:18,923 --> 00:39:21,092
we have a new NXT Women's champion.

1103
00:39:21,158 --> 00:39:22,860
[Vic] Champion rolling to the outside.

1104
00:39:22,927 --> 00:39:24,662
Right now trying to get away

1105
00:39:24,729 --> 00:39:26,497
maybe from the offensive

1106
00:39:26,564 --> 00:39:28,099
onslaught by the challenger,

1107
00:39:28,165 --> 00:39:29,300
Dakota Kai.

1108
00:39:29,366 --> 00:39:31,202
Another precision kick to the jaw.

1109
00:39:31,268 --> 00:39:32,970
[Beth] González's whole jaw

1110
00:39:33,037 --> 00:39:35,005
has to be stinging.

1111
00:39:35,339 --> 00:39:36,507
[Vic] Again, González,

1112
00:39:36,574 --> 00:39:38,242
Kai has been on top of her game,

1113
00:39:38,309 --> 00:39:39,877
maybe the cover for the title

1114
00:39:39,944 --> 00:39:43,214
and again powering out is González.

1115
00:39:43,681 --> 00:39:44,782
Kai said on Twitter,

1116
00:39:44,849 --> 00:39:47,318
14 years led to this match.

1117
00:39:47,384 --> 00:39:48,819
[Beth] How about this moment?

1118
00:39:48,886 --> 00:39:50,988
Once again, straight to the jaw

1119
00:39:51,055 --> 00:39:53,791
and Dakota Kai has identified

1120
00:39:53,858 --> 00:39:55,826
what's been effective in this matchup

1121
00:39:55,893 --> 00:39:58,596
and continues to go to the neck and jaw.

1122
00:39:59,196 --> 00:40:00,765
[Vic] Kai said she is done

1123
00:40:00,831 --> 00:40:03,067
being called a sidekick as well.

1124
00:40:03,267 --> 00:40:04,802
[Wade] It's an absolute disgrace

1125
00:40:04,869 --> 00:40:06,370
that anybody on this planet

1126
00:40:06,437 --> 00:40:07,605
would reduce somebody

1127
00:40:07,671 --> 00:40:08,906
like Dakota Kai

1128
00:40:08,973 --> 00:40:10,474
to being a mere sidekick.

1129
00:40:10,541 --> 00:40:12,743
Way too talented. Way too good.

1130
00:40:12,810 --> 00:40:14,044
Even more disgraceful

1131
00:40:14,111 --> 00:40:16,013
that her supposed best friend--

1132
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:17,581
Oh!

1133
00:40:17,748 --> 00:40:19,984
Raquel González, reduced her to that.

1134
00:40:20,584 --> 00:40:22,620
[Vic] González back up, big clothesline,

1135
00:40:22,686 --> 00:40:23,788
dropping the challenger.

1136
00:40:23,854 --> 00:40:24,822
González with a boot.

1137
00:40:24,889 --> 00:40:25,990
Now González,

1138
00:40:26,056 --> 00:40:27,758
maybe getting her wits back about her

1139
00:40:27,825 --> 00:40:28,959
in this matchup.

1140
00:40:29,126 --> 00:40:30,961
[Beth] González in the center of the ring,

1141
00:40:31,028 --> 00:40:32,663
exhibiting that power.

1142
00:40:34,265 --> 00:40:35,166
[Vic] González

1143
00:40:35,232 --> 00:40:37,034
still feeling the effects

1144
00:40:37,101 --> 00:40:39,870
from the multiple kicks from Dakota Kai.

1145
00:40:39,937 --> 00:40:42,273
[Wade] She received a strategic beat-down

1146
00:40:42,339 --> 00:40:44,742
from Dakota Kai so far in this matchup.

1147
00:40:44,809 --> 00:40:46,610
It has weakened the champion

1148
00:40:46,677 --> 00:40:48,746
way more than perhaps we've ever seen

1149
00:40:48,813 --> 00:40:49,647
previously.

1150
00:40:49,713 --> 00:40:50,548
[Vic] Sidewalk slam.

1151
00:40:50,614 --> 00:40:51,982
González trying to follow up,

1152
00:40:52,049 --> 00:40:54,618
up and down across the chest of Kai.

1153
00:40:54,685 --> 00:40:55,853
Champion into the cover,

1154
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,222
hook of the leg to retain her golden--

1155
00:40:58,289 --> 00:41:00,524
Kai kicks out at two.

1156
00:41:00,591 --> 00:41:02,460
[Wade] Kai had the strength to kick out,

1157
00:41:02,526 --> 00:41:04,295
but that hook pin was so tight.

1158
00:41:04,361 --> 00:41:06,230
She had to force her way out of it.

1159
00:41:06,297 --> 00:41:08,299
[Beth] Once more, we can see the force.

1160
00:41:08,999 --> 00:41:11,202
Raquel González coming across the ribs

1161
00:41:11,268 --> 00:41:12,570
of Dakota Kai.

1162
00:41:12,636 --> 00:41:13,938
[Vic] We talk a lot about Kai,

1163
00:41:14,004 --> 00:41:14,872
but Beth, you got to talk about

1164
00:41:14,939 --> 00:41:15,806
Raquel González

1165
00:41:15,873 --> 00:41:17,842
certainly has stepped up as the champion.

1166
00:41:17,908 --> 00:41:19,376
[Beth] She's envisioned herself

1167
00:41:19,443 --> 00:41:21,045
as the face of the Women's division.

1168
00:41:21,212 --> 00:41:22,913
She doesn't want to live in mediocrity.

1169
00:41:22,980 --> 00:41:25,015
She wants to finish things up right here.

1170
00:41:25,082 --> 00:41:26,784
-Looking for--
-Chingona bomb.

1171
00:41:26,851 --> 00:41:27,785
[Vic] Can she connect it?

1172
00:41:27,852 --> 00:41:29,253
Again, a counter by Kai.

1173
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:30,287
[Wade] Completely scouted it,

1174
00:41:30,354 --> 00:41:32,857
extending that right arm once again.

1175
00:41:32,923 --> 00:41:34,625
Stretching the bicep tendon,

1176
00:41:34,692 --> 00:41:36,560
trying to hyper extend the elbow.

1177
00:41:36,627 --> 00:41:37,528
No.

1178
00:41:37,595 --> 00:41:39,263
The power of Raquel González

1179
00:41:39,330 --> 00:41:40,264
almost broke--

1180
00:41:40,331 --> 00:41:42,566
Dakota Kai connecting this time

1181
00:41:42,633 --> 00:41:44,034
with that turnbuckle.

1182
00:41:44,101 --> 00:41:45,369
[Vic] Kai realized early on

1183
00:41:45,436 --> 00:41:46,303
in this matchup

1184
00:41:46,370 --> 00:41:49,540
the damage done to the bicep of González.

1185
00:41:49,607 --> 00:41:52,109
[Wade] González is really struggling now.

1186
00:41:52,176 --> 00:41:53,911
This is why Dakota Kai

1187
00:41:53,978 --> 00:41:55,179
needs to capitalize.

1188
00:41:55,246 --> 00:41:56,480
[Vic] Looking for that scorpion kick.

1189
00:41:56,547 --> 00:41:57,681
This time it's countered.

1190
00:41:57,748 --> 00:41:59,016
It's countered by González.

1191
00:41:59,083 --> 00:42:00,217
Up again.

1192
00:42:00,284 --> 00:42:01,552
Looking for a powerbomb.

1193
00:42:01,619 --> 00:42:03,254
Sit-down powerbomb connects.

1194
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:04,989
González into the cover to retain

1195
00:42:05,055 --> 00:42:07,157
her NXT Women's championship.

1196
00:42:07,224 --> 00:42:11,629
Kai again somehow able to kick out.

1197
00:42:11,695 --> 00:42:14,098
Kai is taking a beating, Beth.

1198
00:42:14,164 --> 00:42:16,600
[Beth] She's a resilient competitor

1199
00:42:16,667 --> 00:42:18,802
but my god, take a look at this.

1200
00:42:18,869 --> 00:42:20,170
This powerbomb

1201
00:42:20,237 --> 00:42:23,374
just knocking the wind out of Dakota Kai.

1202
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:24,808
I'm just shocked

1203
00:42:24,875 --> 00:42:26,410
that she was able to kick out.

1204
00:42:28,479 --> 00:42:29,513
[Vic] You were shocked.

1205
00:42:29,580 --> 00:42:30,915
González was shocked.

1206
00:42:30,981 --> 00:42:32,983
Dakota Kai continuing to fight

1207
00:42:33,050 --> 00:42:34,852
in this NXT Women's championship.

1208
00:42:34,919 --> 00:42:35,786
We talked about this being

1209
00:42:35,853 --> 00:42:37,421
the toughest test for González,

1210
00:42:37,488 --> 00:42:38,722
Kai certainly taking the champion

1211
00:42:38,789 --> 00:42:39,723
to her limit.

1212
00:42:39,790 --> 00:42:40,691
[Wade] 100%.

1213
00:42:40,758 --> 00:42:41,926
You mentioned it briefly, Beth

1214
00:42:41,992 --> 00:42:44,495
the recent nature of Dakota Kai

1215
00:42:44,562 --> 00:42:46,363
back on her feet, back on the attack.

1216
00:42:46,430 --> 00:42:47,898
[crowd chants]

1217
00:42:48,999 --> 00:42:51,468
[Vic] Oh! Kai now following up

1218
00:42:51,535 --> 00:42:52,870
some more high impact offense.

1219
00:42:52,937 --> 00:42:54,405
Rolling through, shoulders down.

1220
00:42:54,471 --> 00:42:56,340
Referee in perfect position, a count.

1221
00:42:56,407 --> 00:42:57,908
Another kick out by González.

1222
00:42:57,975 --> 00:42:59,944
Look at the position of the champion.

1223
00:43:00,010 --> 00:43:02,646
[Beth] Oh, no. This could look very bad

1224
00:43:02,713 --> 00:43:03,781
for Dakota Kai.

1225
00:43:03,847 --> 00:43:05,983
[Vic] Oh, man.

1226
00:43:07,384 --> 00:43:09,787
[Wade] Straight across the midsection

1227
00:43:09,853 --> 00:43:11,288
of Dakota Kai.

1228
00:43:11,355 --> 00:43:12,456
Not sure how much of that

1229
00:43:12,523 --> 00:43:13,557
Raquel knew about,

1230
00:43:13,624 --> 00:43:15,125
but it was highly effective.

1231
00:43:16,961 --> 00:43:18,462
[Beth] Take a look here.

1232
00:43:18,529 --> 00:43:20,030
Kai's body hitting that rope

1233
00:43:20,097 --> 00:43:22,299
and just being propelled outside

1234
00:43:22,366 --> 00:43:23,968
onto the hard ramp.

1235
00:43:24,034 --> 00:43:27,071
[crowd chants]

1236
00:43:27,137 --> 00:43:29,106
[Vic] Take a look at the CWC,

1237
00:43:29,173 --> 00:43:30,574
and we got to be mindful of something.

1238
00:43:30,641 --> 00:43:32,009
What we just saw from Kai.

1239
00:43:32,076 --> 00:43:34,111
This isn't a normal entryway on NXT.

1240
00:43:34,178 --> 00:43:37,114
That ring entryway extends to the ring.

1241
00:43:37,181 --> 00:43:38,415
That's not a soft landing.

1242
00:43:38,482 --> 00:43:40,317
[Beth] Nothing about that is soft.

1243
00:43:40,384 --> 00:43:41,952
No padding whatsoever.

1244
00:43:42,019 --> 00:43:45,122
Dakota's back has to be on fire.

1245
00:43:45,189 --> 00:43:47,825
[Vic] Kai, González locking eyes.

1246
00:43:47,891 --> 00:43:50,327
The two former friends. Bitter rivals.

1247
00:43:50,394 --> 00:43:51,895
It's come down to this.

1248
00:43:51,962 --> 00:43:53,230
Going up is Kai.

1249
00:43:53,297 --> 00:43:54,565
Block by González with the strength.

1250
00:43:54,632 --> 00:43:55,899
González bouncing off--

1251
00:43:55,966 --> 00:43:57,634
Kai gets caught against the jaw.

1252
00:43:57,701 --> 00:43:59,303
[Wade] Precision superkick.

1253
00:43:59,370 --> 00:44:00,504
Give me more.

1254
00:44:00,571 --> 00:44:01,405
[Vic] Oh, wow.

1255
00:44:01,472 --> 00:44:02,740
[Beth] How did she say that?

1256
00:44:02,806 --> 00:44:03,874
[Vic] Another kick connects.

1257
00:44:03,941 --> 00:44:05,142
Kai now,

1258
00:44:05,209 --> 00:44:06,710
starting to pick up the intensity.

1259
00:44:06,777 --> 00:44:07,811
Trying to chop down González,

1260
00:44:07,878 --> 00:44:09,546
couple of kicks now going up.

1261
00:44:09,613 --> 00:44:11,448
Looking for a chiropractor.

1262
00:44:11,515 --> 00:44:13,717
Is that going to send Dakota Kai

1263
00:44:13,784 --> 00:44:15,886
to the championship victory?

1264
00:44:15,953 --> 00:44:19,089
González kicks out again.

1265
00:44:22,826 --> 00:44:25,162
[Beth] There are so many emotional levels.

1266
00:44:25,329 --> 00:44:27,498
The bitterness between these two women.

1267
00:44:27,564 --> 00:44:29,600
You see the force of the kick again

1268
00:44:29,667 --> 00:44:30,968
to that jawline.

1269
00:44:31,035 --> 00:44:32,469
[Vic] Is followed up.

1270
00:44:32,536 --> 00:44:35,806
High impact offense to the spine

1271
00:44:35,873 --> 00:44:37,241
bending the champion,

1272
00:44:37,307 --> 00:44:38,942
but González again.

1273
00:44:39,009 --> 00:44:41,712
It will show the heart of a champion.

1274
00:44:41,779 --> 00:44:44,114
[referee] Off the hair, Kai. Come on.

1275
00:44:45,616 --> 00:44:46,450
Let's go.

1276
00:44:46,517 --> 00:44:47,518
One, off the hair.

1277
00:44:48,218 --> 00:44:49,753
Two, off the hair.

1278
00:44:50,287 --> 00:44:51,722
Three, off the hair, Dakota.

1279
00:44:52,122 --> 00:44:52,956
Four. Hey, hey.

1280
00:44:53,023 --> 00:44:54,124
Get off the hair.

1281
00:44:54,958 --> 00:44:56,427
[Vic] Kai repeatedly has said

1282
00:44:56,493 --> 00:44:58,128
González would be nothing without her.

1283
00:44:58,195 --> 00:44:59,063
González though

1284
00:44:59,129 --> 00:45:00,798
blocking out all the noise.

1285
00:45:00,864 --> 00:45:02,232
[Beth] Once again, Raquel--

1286
00:45:02,299 --> 00:45:03,534
[Vic] Wow!

1287
00:45:04,168 --> 00:45:05,536
[Wade] The champ falling hard

1288
00:45:05,602 --> 00:45:07,705
to the outside there inadvertently,

1289
00:45:07,771 --> 00:45:10,040
but Dakota Kai on her feet already

1290
00:45:10,107 --> 00:45:11,208
looking to capitalize.

1291
00:45:11,275 --> 00:45:12,810
[Vic] Champion shown to the outside.

1292
00:45:12,876 --> 00:45:14,511
Kai quickly getting the champion

1293
00:45:14,578 --> 00:45:15,746
back into the ring.

1294
00:45:15,813 --> 00:45:17,247
Dakota Kai now.

1295
00:45:17,314 --> 00:45:18,949
Kai now turning it up a notch.

1296
00:45:19,016 --> 00:45:20,484
Looking to go high-risk.

1297
00:45:20,551 --> 00:45:21,785
Will she get the reward?

1298
00:45:21,852 --> 00:45:22,886
Up and down.

1299
00:45:22,953 --> 00:45:24,488
Double stomp to the midsection.

1300
00:45:24,555 --> 00:45:26,423
Kai into the cover.

1301
00:45:26,490 --> 00:45:27,624
Hook of both legs,

1302
00:45:27,691 --> 00:45:30,728
and again the champion powers out.

1303
00:45:32,262 --> 00:45:34,465
A look of disbelief again

1304
00:45:34,531 --> 00:45:36,867
etched on the face of Dakota Kai.

1305
00:45:37,067 --> 00:45:40,037
[crowd applauding]

1306
00:45:43,107 --> 00:45:45,409
What is Kai going to have to do

1307
00:45:45,476 --> 00:45:47,211
to keep González down?

1308
00:45:47,277 --> 00:45:48,512
[Beth] Kai is asking herself

1309
00:45:48,579 --> 00:45:50,047
that very same question.

1310
00:45:50,114 --> 00:45:52,816
She's learning what her former best friend

1311
00:45:52,883 --> 00:45:54,118
truly is made of.

1312
00:45:54,551 --> 00:45:57,821
[Vic] Kai trying to hoist up González.

1313
00:45:57,888 --> 00:46:00,491
González looking for a gut wrench bomb

1314
00:46:00,557 --> 00:46:01,391
with some extent.

1315
00:46:01,458 --> 00:46:05,095
Just running through to a top turnbuckle.

1316
00:46:05,596 --> 00:46:07,731
Both these women know each other so well.

1317
00:46:07,798 --> 00:46:08,966
[Wade] With all the damage

1318
00:46:09,032 --> 00:46:11,034
that Dakota Kai has already sustained

1319
00:46:11,101 --> 00:46:12,236
to that midsection.

1320
00:46:12,302 --> 00:46:13,470
That will not help things.

1321
00:46:13,537 --> 00:46:16,340
Now both precariously on that second rope,

1322
00:46:16,406 --> 00:46:17,541
dueling it out.

1323
00:46:17,608 --> 00:46:18,675
Both ladies,

1324
00:46:18,742 --> 00:46:20,944
Kai getting the better of it once again.

1325
00:46:22,079 --> 00:46:23,747
[Vic] Charging back in to the champion.

1326
00:46:23,814 --> 00:46:25,649
Both showing you what it means to be

1327
00:46:25,716 --> 00:46:27,484
the NXT Women's champion.

1328
00:46:27,551 --> 00:46:30,420
To represent this brand is Kai.

1329
00:46:30,487 --> 00:46:31,655
Repeatedly again

1330
00:46:31,722 --> 00:46:33,023
with a series of headbutts.

1331
00:46:33,090 --> 00:46:34,992
Now, look at this escapability.

1332
00:46:36,393 --> 00:46:39,062
[Wade] Dropkick to the jaw of the champ.

1333
00:46:39,129 --> 00:46:41,031
The champ is getting asked questions

1334
00:46:41,098 --> 00:46:43,367
that she never knew existed.

1335
00:46:43,433 --> 00:46:45,636
[Vic] Kai, with the champion measured.

1336
00:46:45,702 --> 00:46:46,970
Tries to get back in.

1337
00:46:47,304 --> 00:46:48,939
[Wade] Wait for the yakuza kick.

1338
00:46:49,006 --> 00:46:51,041
-Oh, my god.
-Are you kidding me?

1339
00:46:51,108 --> 00:46:55,445
[Beth] Set up for Chingona Bomb.

1340
00:46:55,646 --> 00:46:57,414
[Vic] Right off the middle turnbuckle.

1341
00:46:57,481 --> 00:46:59,082
Cover, count.

1342
00:46:59,149 --> 00:47:00,517
González retains.

1343
00:47:00,584 --> 00:47:01,919
[bell rings]

1344
00:47:01,985 --> 00:47:03,520
[Raquel González's music plays]

1345
00:47:04,488 --> 00:47:06,156
[announcer] Here is your winner,

1346
00:47:06,223 --> 00:47:09,493
and still the NXT Women's champion,

1347
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:12,062
Raquel González.

1348
00:47:12,129 --> 00:47:15,799
[crowd cheering]

1349
00:47:18,936 --> 00:47:20,904
[Vic] González tonight knew

1350
00:47:20,971 --> 00:47:23,841
she was in for the fight of her career.

1351
00:47:23,907 --> 00:47:26,910
In the end, the result is the same.

1352
00:47:26,977 --> 00:47:29,146
Still on top of the Women's division

1353
00:47:29,213 --> 00:47:31,815
here in NXT, Raquel González.

1354
00:47:31,882 --> 00:47:33,116
[Beth] After multiple attempts

1355
00:47:33,183 --> 00:47:34,885
in this match, González knew

1356
00:47:34,952 --> 00:47:36,753
what her ace in the hole was.

1357
00:47:36,820 --> 00:47:38,522
Dakota Kai right here.

1358
00:47:38,589 --> 00:47:40,891
González shifting momentum mid-air.

1359
00:47:41,291 --> 00:47:44,228
This would be the decisive moment.

1360
00:47:44,528 --> 00:47:46,163
The Chingona Bomb.

1361
00:47:46,630 --> 00:47:49,466
Driving Dakota Kai to the neck.

1362
00:47:49,900 --> 00:47:51,902
Once again, Raquel González

1363
00:47:51,969 --> 00:47:54,972
stands tall atop the NXT Women's division.

1364
00:47:55,038 --> 00:47:56,039
[Vic] Take a look, Beth.

1365
00:47:56,106 --> 00:47:57,774
Have you seen anything like this?

1366
00:47:57,841 --> 00:47:59,276
[Beth] Raquel González

1367
00:47:59,343 --> 00:48:01,311
makes it look effortless.

1368
00:48:01,378 --> 00:48:03,180
Incredible moment

1369
00:48:03,247 --> 00:48:04,915
for an incredible champion.

1370
00:48:06,116 --> 00:48:09,519
[music]

1371
00:48:09,586 --> 00:48:11,154
[Vic] The NXT Women's division

1372
00:48:11,221 --> 00:48:13,223
still goes through one woman,

1373
00:48:13,290 --> 00:48:16,994
and that woman is Raquel González.

1374
00:48:19,363 --> 00:48:22,299
[music]

1375
00:48:24,568 --> 00:48:27,804
[crowd cheering]

1376
00:48:35,913 --> 00:48:39,016
Wait. What?

1377
00:48:39,616 --> 00:48:41,818
Kay Lee Rae,

1378
00:48:42,452 --> 00:48:45,055
the former NXT UK Women's champion

1379
00:48:45,122 --> 00:48:46,123
is here?

1380
00:48:46,189 --> 00:48:48,725
[music]

1381
00:48:54,932 --> 00:49:00,570

1382

APPLEBEES

1383
00:49:08,512 --> 00:49:10,447
[woman] It is so good to see everyone.

1384
00:49:12,049 --> 00:49:12,950
[man] You're welcome.

1385
00:49:13,016 --> 00:49:14,584
[man 1] You look completely ridiculous.

1386
00:49:14,651 --> 00:49:16,920
I want the classic bacon cheeseburger,

1387
00:49:16,987 --> 00:49:18,322
Swiss cheese, please.

1388
00:49:18,388 --> 00:49:19,756
[man] You have issues with me?

1389
00:49:19,823 --> 00:49:20,891
Please.

1390
00:49:20,958 --> 00:49:22,326
[man 3] At least he doesn't make us

1391
00:49:22,392 --> 00:49:24,094
look like idiots.

1392
00:49:24,594 --> 00:49:25,729
Another order away, please.

1393
00:49:25,796 --> 00:49:27,197
[woman] Come on. We're eating good

1394
00:49:27,264 --> 00:49:28,398
in the neighborhood today.

1395
00:49:28,465 --> 00:49:29,533
Let's all get along.

1396
00:49:29,599 --> 00:49:30,600
[man] Maybe add to his order

1397
00:49:30,667 --> 00:49:31,735
a nice glass of shut the--

1398
00:49:31,802 --> 00:49:32,669
[woman] Boys!

1399
00:49:34,204 --> 00:49:35,639
[man 1] You don't talk to me that way.

1400
00:49:35,706 --> 00:49:37,140
[narrator] Applebee's, that's eating good

1401
00:49:37,207 --> 00:49:38,408
in the neighborhood.

1402
00:49:38,475 --> 00:49:39,376

00:49:39,443 --> 00:49:42,312

1404
00:49:42,679 --> 00:49:44,548
[man 4] Actually, table for one.

00:50:27,524 --> 00:50:29,026
championship excellence

1420
00:50:29,092 --> 00:50:30,827
aplenty already tonight

1421
00:50:30,894 --> 00:50:32,129
and here we get a glimpse

1422
00:50:32,195 --> 00:50:34,464
of Karrion Kross warming up

1423
00:50:34,531 --> 00:50:36,333
ahead of a huge title defense

1424
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:37,567
against Samoa Joe

1425
00:50:37,634 --> 00:50:39,169
in tonight's main event.

1426
00:50:39,236 --> 00:50:40,771
[Vic] Talk about huge title matches.

1427
00:50:40,837 --> 00:50:43,206
How about the most anticipated rematch

1428
00:50:43,273 --> 00:50:45,375
in NXT UK history?

1429
00:50:45,442 --> 00:50:47,878
It's a rematch, 10 months in the making.

1430
00:50:48,111 --> 00:50:49,179
Can Dragunov end

1431
00:50:49,246 --> 00:50:51,681
the historic reign of Walter here tonight?

1432
00:50:54,551 --> 00:50:56,019
[music]

1433
00:50:56,953 --> 00:51:00,524
[Ilja] I think the match of 2020 in WWE--

1434
00:51:00,590 --> 00:51:03,160
[announcer] It's Ilja Dragunov vs Walter

1435
00:51:03,226 --> 00:51:06,129
for the United Kingdom championship.

1436
00:51:07,497 --> 00:51:10,500
[Ilja] I only survived, barely.

1437
00:51:11,735 --> 00:51:15,405
[music]

1438
00:51:17,908 --> 00:51:19,142
[Ilja] Nobody talks about

1439
00:51:19,209 --> 00:51:22,145
how you mentally suffer if you go in

1440
00:51:22,212 --> 00:51:24,281
with all the belief you have in your body

1441
00:51:25,182 --> 00:51:26,550
and you just not succeed.

1442
00:51:32,089 --> 00:51:34,324
Failures like this, they hurt your mind

1443
00:51:34,391 --> 00:51:36,026
and the memories haunt you

1444
00:51:36,093 --> 00:51:38,161
and somehow I just lost control.

1445
00:51:38,962 --> 00:51:41,098
[announcer] Is there any hope for Dragunov

1446
00:51:41,164 --> 00:51:43,733
in finding balance and peace?

1447
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,103
[Walter] That's a little boy deep down.

1448
00:51:46,169 --> 00:51:47,003
[man] Temper, temper.

1449
00:51:47,070 --> 00:51:48,772
I know you were scared.

1450
00:51:48,839 --> 00:51:50,006
No more tantrums.

1451
00:51:50,073 --> 00:51:52,943
[man] Who can save Dragunov from himself?

1452
00:51:54,044 --> 00:51:55,879
[Ilja] Walter became my nightmare.

1453
00:51:55,946 --> 00:51:58,048
[Walter] I'm standing here in front of you

1454
00:51:58,115 --> 00:52:01,785
as the longest-reigning NXT UK champion

1455
00:52:01,852 --> 00:52:03,253
in history.

1456
00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:05,956
[Vic] The man who stands atop his world

1457
00:52:06,022 --> 00:52:08,058
like a colossus.

1458
00:52:08,225 --> 00:52:09,559
[Walter] I will forever be

1459
00:52:09,626 --> 00:52:13,864
the NXT United Kingdom champion.

1460
00:52:14,531 --> 00:52:16,466
[Ilja] Nightmares can come back

1461
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:18,201
and it did.

1462
00:52:18,268 --> 00:52:19,970
[Vic] Oh my God!

1463
00:52:22,806 --> 00:52:24,274
[Walter] Come for us?

1464
00:52:25,842 --> 00:52:27,777
[Ilja] They're going to get up again

1465
00:52:27,844 --> 00:52:29,779
out of these ashes?

1466
00:52:29,846 --> 00:52:32,115
I'm now ready to become his nightmare.

1467
00:52:32,182 --> 00:52:33,783
[announcer] It is official,

1468
00:52:33,850 --> 00:52:35,218
Walter will defend

1469
00:52:35,285 --> 00:52:37,154
his NXT UK championship

1470
00:52:37,220 --> 00:52:38,855
against Ilja Dragunov

1471
00:52:38,922 --> 00:52:41,191
at NXT TakeOver 36.

1472
00:52:41,258 --> 00:52:42,959
The world will be watching.

1473
00:52:43,026 --> 00:52:44,361
[man] The most anticipated

1474
00:52:44,427 --> 00:52:45,729
NXT UK title match

1475
00:52:45,795 --> 00:52:46,630
in history.

1476
00:52:46,696 --> 00:52:48,999
[man] This is going to be a war.

1477
00:52:49,065 --> 00:52:50,767
[Walter] Ilja, at NXT TakeOver,

1478
00:52:50,834 --> 00:52:52,636
I'm going to show your real face

1479
00:52:52,702 --> 00:52:54,004
to the whole world,

1480
00:52:54,070 --> 00:52:55,805
full of doubt and full of fear.

1481
00:52:55,872 --> 00:52:57,607
[Ilja] At TakeOver,

1482
00:52:57,674 --> 00:52:59,976
you will witness chaos.

1483
00:53:00,043 --> 00:53:03,013
You will witness rage.

1484
00:53:03,446 --> 00:53:05,415
[Walter] I am unbeatable.

1485
00:53:05,482 --> 00:53:07,217
If that leads to brutality,

1486
00:53:08,451 --> 00:53:10,053
that's what it is.

1487
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:13,523
[Ilja] An unbeatable kingdom will fall,

1488
00:53:13,590 --> 00:53:17,794
when I will end Walter's reign

1489
00:53:17,861 --> 00:53:20,163
and become the NXT UK champion.

1490
00:53:26,736 --> 00:53:28,838
[tense music]

1491
00:53:28,905 --> 00:53:35,845
[crowd cheers]

1492
00:53:48,191 --> 00:53:53,129
[Ilja Dragunov's music plays]

1493
00:53:53,330 --> 00:53:56,833
[Vic] You could feel the intensity

1494
00:53:56,900 --> 00:53:58,635
coming from both competitors.

1495
00:53:58,702 --> 00:54:00,537
This is the match you, Wade,

1496
00:54:00,604 --> 00:54:02,072
have been waiting for.

1497
00:54:02,138 --> 00:54:03,840
[Wade] I cannot wait for this one.

1498
00:54:03,907 --> 00:54:05,241
What a matchup

1499
00:54:05,308 --> 00:54:07,577
we saw just 10 months ago.

1500
00:54:07,644 --> 00:54:10,013
The most anticipated rematch

1501
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:13,016
in the history of NXT UK.

1502
00:54:13,083 --> 00:54:15,418
Believe me, everyone I know

1503
00:54:15,485 --> 00:54:17,554
in the world of sports entertainment

1504
00:54:17,621 --> 00:54:19,656
went out of their way

1505
00:54:19,723 --> 00:54:20,924
to watch that match.

1506
00:54:20,991 --> 00:54:22,859
All coming back with the same report.

1507
00:54:22,926 --> 00:54:25,729
That one personified brutality.

1508
00:54:28,531 --> 00:54:30,533
[Vic] Don't forget there's still time.

[Beth] My dear friend Nigel McGuinness

1521
00:54:52,722 --> 00:54:54,357
said that the first encounter

1522
00:54:54,424 --> 00:54:56,026
between Ilja and Walter

1523
00:54:56,092 --> 00:54:57,494
left such an impression.

1524
00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,696
It was destined to see these two clash

1525
00:54:59,763 --> 00:55:02,098
one more time.

1526
00:55:02,165 --> 00:55:03,233
They've raised the bar

1527
00:55:03,299 --> 00:55:05,135
in NXT UK championship

1528
00:55:05,201 --> 00:55:07,570
and I have no doubt they will again

1529
00:55:07,637 --> 00:55:09,806
tonight at TakeOver 36.

1530
00:55:10,573 --> 00:55:17,514
[Walter's music plays]

1531
00:55:26,589 --> 00:55:29,926
[crowd cheering]

1532
00:55:29,993 --> 00:55:34,998
[Vic] There you see the NXT UK champion.

1533
00:55:35,865 --> 00:55:38,835
No Aichner, no Barthel.

1534
00:55:38,902 --> 00:55:43,540
Today, Beth, marks day 870

1535
00:55:43,606 --> 00:55:47,210
in the longest reign in the modern era

1536
00:55:47,277 --> 00:55:48,611
for Walter.

1537
00:55:48,678 --> 00:55:50,246
[Beth] The power of Walter,

1538
00:55:50,313 --> 00:55:52,015
with a reign like this,

1539
00:55:52,082 --> 00:55:54,818
it can only be described as surreal.

1540
00:55:54,884 --> 00:55:56,252
Everybody's been asking,

1541
00:55:56,319 --> 00:55:58,455
"How can anyone take Walter

1542
00:55:58,521 --> 00:56:01,524
off his years-long course of destruction?"

1543
00:56:01,591 --> 00:56:03,560
[Crowd chants "Walter"]

1544
00:56:07,964 --> 00:56:10,934
The mood has changed here in the CWC.

1545
00:56:11,501 --> 00:56:13,803
Walter brings in an imposing presence

1546
00:56:13,870 --> 00:56:16,272
unlike any other superstar

1547
00:56:16,339 --> 00:56:18,007
we've ever seen.

1548
00:56:18,541 --> 00:56:20,610
[Wade] You simply have to admire

1549
00:56:20,677 --> 00:56:22,479
the nobility, the majesty,

1550
00:56:22,545 --> 00:56:24,447
the elegance of that man,

1551
00:56:24,514 --> 00:56:27,784
the general, Walter.

1552
00:56:27,984 --> 00:56:32,055
[applause]

1553
00:56:32,522 --> 00:56:35,091
[Vic] April 5th, 2019.

1554
00:56:35,158 --> 00:56:37,193
NXT TakeOver New York.

1555
00:56:37,260 --> 00:56:41,765
When Walter won the NXT UK title.

1556
00:56:42,999 --> 00:56:46,035
Will that reign continue here tonight?

1557
00:56:46,102 --> 00:56:51,007
[Crowd chants "Walter"]

1558
00:56:51,174 --> 00:56:52,842

1559

[woman] The following contest

1560
00:56:54,110 --> 00:56:55,478
scheduled for one fall

1561
00:56:55,545 --> 00:56:56,946
is for the NXT

1562
00:56:57,013 --> 00:57:01,684
United Kingdom championship.

1563
00:57:01,751 --> 00:57:06,356
[crowd cheers]

1564
00:57:06,423 --> 00:57:08,558
Introducing the challenger

1565
00:57:08,625 --> 00:57:10,460
from Moscow, Russia

1566
00:57:10,527 --> 00:57:16,065
weighing in at 210 pounds, Ilja Dragunov.

1567
00:57:16,132 --> 00:57:20,170
[crowd cheering]

1568
00:57:24,307 --> 00:57:27,177
His opponent, from Vienna, Austria

1569
00:57:27,243 --> 00:57:30,747
weighing in at 297 pounds,

1570
00:57:30,814 --> 00:57:32,849
representing the Imperium

1571
00:57:32,916 --> 00:57:34,551
he is the NXT

1572
00:57:34,617 --> 00:57:40,857
United Kingdom champion, Walter.

1573
00:57:40,924 --> 00:57:46,396
[Crowd chants "Walter"]

1574
00:57:46,596 --> 00:57:48,665
[Vic] Something to think about upfront

1575
00:57:48,731 --> 00:57:49,666
in this matchup,

1576
00:57:49,732 --> 00:57:51,935
the only man in NXT or NXT UK

1577
00:57:52,001 --> 00:57:55,104
to have beaten Walter is Ilja Dragunov.

1578
00:57:55,171 --> 00:57:59,275
That took place though October 15, 2020.

1579
00:57:59,342 --> 00:58:02,312
[crowd] Walter's gonna kill you.

1580
00:58:02,378 --> 00:58:04,447
[Vic] Dragunov will not accept failure.

1581
00:58:04,514 --> 00:58:06,950
A trait instilled in him by his parents,

1582
00:58:07,016 --> 00:58:09,452
can he persevere here tonight?
[bell rings]

1583
00:58:09,519 --> 00:58:12,956
[Beth] Generational equality. It's late.

1584
00:58:13,022 --> 00:58:14,958
Constantine, Dragunov's son,

1585
00:58:15,024 --> 00:58:16,292
his four-year-old son is sleeping

1586
00:58:16,359 --> 00:58:18,228
but Dragunov wants to make sure

1587
00:58:18,294 --> 00:58:19,863
that he wakes up to his father

1588
00:58:19,929 --> 00:58:21,498
as NXT UK champion.

1589
00:58:21,564 --> 00:58:24,133
[Vic] You see Dragunov,

1590
00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:26,069
the bandage on his forehead

1591
00:58:26,135 --> 00:58:27,437
from last week in a match

1592
00:58:27,504 --> 00:58:29,439
against Roderick Strong.

1593
00:58:29,506 --> 00:58:31,875
They're trying to square up with Walter.

1594
00:58:32,675 --> 00:58:34,777
[Beth] Dragunov coming into this

1595
00:58:34,844 --> 00:58:36,579
with a lot of confidence,

1596
00:58:36,646 --> 00:58:38,114
he's been testing--

1597
00:58:38,348 --> 00:58:39,582
over the last weeks here at NXT

1598
00:58:39,649 --> 00:58:41,584
preparing for this moment.

1599
00:58:41,651 --> 00:58:43,319
[crosstalk].

1600
00:58:43,386 --> 00:58:45,822
[Vic] Walter quickly closing the gap

1601
00:58:45,989 --> 00:58:47,190
between him and Ilja Dragunov--

1602
00:58:47,257 --> 00:58:48,224
Swing and a miss.

1603
00:58:48,291 --> 00:58:50,093
Whoa.

1604
00:58:50,159 --> 00:58:52,262
It's Dragunov again.

1605
00:58:52,328 --> 00:58:53,162
[Wade] Giving him a taste

1606
00:58:53,229 --> 00:58:54,063
of his own medicine

1607
00:58:54,130 --> 00:58:54,964
with those back chops.

1608
00:58:55,031 --> 00:58:57,000
[Vic] Walter all of a sudden is fired up.

1609
00:58:57,066 --> 00:58:58,134
Early on,

1610
00:58:58,201 --> 00:58:59,969
he seemed to be calm, cool, collected.

1611
00:59:00,036 --> 00:59:00,937
It was Dragunov

1612
00:59:01,004 --> 00:59:02,071
who called Walter arrogant.

1613
00:59:02,138 --> 00:59:03,039
It was Walter who called

1614
00:59:03,106 --> 00:59:04,173
Dragunov a fraud.

1615
00:59:08,011 --> 00:59:09,779
[Wade] Yes, I don't think anybody

1616
00:59:09,846 --> 00:59:11,381
can call Walter arrogant

1617
00:59:11,447 --> 00:59:13,583
because he has the success to back it up.

1618
00:59:13,650 --> 00:59:15,485
Day 870.

1619
00:59:15,551 --> 00:59:17,487
You deserve to be arrogant if that's it.

1620
00:59:18,054 --> 00:59:19,756
[Vic] Now Walter again right on top

1621
00:59:19,822 --> 00:59:21,057
of Ilja Dragunov,

1622
00:59:21,124 --> 00:59:22,392
not a feeling out process,

1623
00:59:22,458 --> 00:59:24,694
these two know each other so very well

1624
00:59:24,761 --> 00:59:27,363
and there again another nice counter

1625
00:59:27,430 --> 00:59:28,998
by Walter back to the front face lock

1626
00:59:29,065 --> 00:59:31,267
and you know, Ilja Dragunov's a superstar

1627
00:59:31,334 --> 00:59:33,202
who feeds off of pain.

1628
00:59:33,269 --> 00:59:35,872
[Beth] We've seen it all in his matches,

1629
00:59:35,939 --> 00:59:36,940
including last week

1630
00:59:37,006 --> 00:59:38,207
when he sustained a laceration

1631
00:59:38,274 --> 00:59:39,442
to his browbone.

1632
00:59:39,509 --> 00:59:40,810
It didn't deter his drive,

1633
00:59:40,877 --> 00:59:42,278
it turned it up into a 10.

1634
00:59:42,345 --> 00:59:43,813
If Dragunov can transform

1635
00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:46,082
that offense of Walter into motivation,

1636
00:59:46,149 --> 00:59:48,918
we might see a new NXT UK champion.

1637
00:59:48,985 --> 00:59:50,520
[Wade] If he feeds off pain,

1638
00:59:50,587 --> 00:59:52,422
he will not go hungry tonight.

1639
00:59:52,488 --> 00:59:54,223
This match will be pain personified

1640
00:59:54,290 --> 00:59:56,526
I suspect, for both competitors.

1641
00:59:56,593 --> 00:59:59,095
[Vic] Walter latching on to Dragunov.

1642
00:59:59,162 --> 01:00:00,229
Dragunov quickly able

1643
01:00:00,296 --> 01:00:01,130
to fight his way free.

1644
01:00:01,197 --> 01:00:02,632
Ilja trying to take Walter over,

1645
01:00:02,699 --> 01:00:03,833
trying to take Walter down.

1646
01:00:03,900 --> 01:00:05,368
Could be a submission of sorts.

1647
01:00:05,435 --> 01:00:07,537
Dragunov though transitions right on top,

1648
01:00:07,604 --> 01:00:09,038
trying to grab a single leg.

1649
01:00:09,105 --> 01:00:10,306
Walter just too strong,

1650
01:00:10,373 --> 01:00:11,607
too big, too powerful,

1651
01:00:11,674 --> 01:00:13,643
but got dropped by Dragunov.

1652
01:00:14,143 --> 01:00:15,745
Dragunov charges in, gets caught.

1653
01:00:15,812 --> 01:00:17,447
Oh, he just caught Walter.

1654
01:00:17,513 --> 01:00:18,648
[Wade] Powerhouse maneuver

1655
01:00:18,715 --> 01:00:19,549
for Dragunov.

1656
01:00:19,616 --> 01:00:21,718
[Vic] Dragunov now trying to snatch in

1657
01:00:21,784 --> 01:00:22,819
that single leg in.

1658
01:00:23,820 --> 01:00:25,088
Walter getting to the bottom rope.

1659
01:00:25,154 --> 01:00:27,256
Dragunov showing no fear

1660
01:00:27,457 --> 01:00:28,591
going right at Walter,

1661
01:00:28,658 --> 01:00:29,492
but he now looks

1662
01:00:29,559 --> 01:00:30,493
like he's done playing.

1663
01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:31,761
Look at Dragunov though.

1664
01:00:31,828 --> 01:00:34,030
[Wade] Dragunov ripping the bandage

1665
01:00:34,097 --> 01:00:35,698
off those stitches on his face

1666
01:00:35,765 --> 01:00:37,634
that he got just a few days ago

1667
01:00:37,700 --> 01:00:39,135
on NXT TV.

1668
01:00:39,969 --> 01:00:42,271
Clearly may be an issue later on

1669
01:00:42,338 --> 01:00:43,506
if that gets opened up.

1670
01:00:43,573 --> 01:00:45,208
[Vic] We talk about the first encounter

1671
01:00:45,274 --> 01:00:46,275
between these two.

1672
01:00:46,342 --> 01:00:47,243
I bet they'd bring Edge

1673
01:00:47,310 --> 01:00:48,444
into the conversation.

1674
01:00:48,511 --> 01:00:49,779
Edge credits their first encounter

1675
01:00:49,846 --> 01:00:50,680
with rejuvenating

1676
01:00:50,747 --> 01:00:52,382
his love for the industry.

1677
01:00:52,448 --> 01:00:54,484
[Beth] Adam was rehabbing a triceps injury

1678
01:00:54,550 --> 01:00:55,752
and he watched that encounter,

1679
01:00:55,818 --> 01:00:57,086
analyzed it, pulled it apart,

1680
01:00:57,153 --> 01:00:59,455
be inspired mostly by the intensity

1681
01:00:59,522 --> 01:01:01,024
that these two men bring.

1682
01:01:01,090 --> 01:01:02,992
If it's the mat or taking to the air

1683
01:01:03,059 --> 01:01:03,893
with his strikes,

1684
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:06,262
nobody has more intensity than Dragunov

1685
01:01:06,329 --> 01:01:07,163
or Walter.

1686
01:01:07,230 --> 01:01:09,298
[Crowd chanting Dragunov]

1687
01:01:09,365 --> 01:01:11,100
[Ilja Dragunov shouting]

1688
01:01:13,069 --> 01:01:13,903
[Vic] Capitol Wrestling Center

1689
01:01:13,970 --> 01:01:17,407
feeding the intensity of the challenger

1690
01:01:17,473 --> 01:01:18,374
here tonight.

1691
01:01:18,841 --> 01:01:20,777
Now Walter trying to create separation.

1692
01:01:20,843 --> 01:01:22,378
But look at Dragunov.

1693
01:01:22,445 --> 01:01:23,980
[Wade] This is a real surprise.

1694
01:01:24,047 --> 01:01:25,715
Walter is used to get into matches

1695
01:01:25,782 --> 01:01:27,517
and dominating from the beginning.

1696
01:01:27,583 --> 01:01:28,951
It has to be said, Dragunov

1697
01:01:29,018 --> 01:01:31,354
has taken the front seat seat so far

1698
01:01:31,421 --> 01:01:32,889
in the early goings in this one.

1699
01:01:32,955 --> 01:01:33,823
[Vic] It's been 10 months

1700
01:01:33,890 --> 01:01:34,857
since that first matchup

1701
01:01:34,924 --> 01:01:35,992
when we heard from Dragunov

1702
01:01:36,059 --> 01:01:37,260
said he's now ready

1703
01:01:37,326 --> 01:01:39,328
to become Walter's nightmare.

1704
01:01:39,395 --> 01:01:40,496
As Walter hoists up

1705
01:01:40,563 --> 01:01:41,964
and drops belly back suplex,

1706
01:01:42,031 --> 01:01:43,833
but Dragunov holds on.

1707
01:01:43,900 --> 01:01:45,501
[Beth] A vise-like grip.

1708
01:01:45,568 --> 01:01:47,537
See Dragunov gripping his own hand.

1709
01:01:47,603 --> 01:01:49,772
Look at the color of Walter's head

1710
01:01:49,839 --> 01:01:52,408
beginning to turn red from the blood flow.

1711
01:01:52,842 --> 01:01:54,444
[Vic] Oh, he's moving forward,

1712
01:01:54,510 --> 01:01:57,013
the fighting spirit of Ilja Dragunov.

1713
01:01:59,916 --> 01:02:01,417
Capitol Wrestling Center

1714
01:02:01,484 --> 01:02:02,852
have been waiting for this matchup

1715
01:02:02,919 --> 01:02:04,353
since it was announced.

1716
01:02:04,420 --> 01:02:05,555
[man] Both of you clean, let's go.

1717
01:02:05,621 --> 01:02:07,490
Walter now just doing anything he can

1718
01:02:07,557 --> 01:02:08,658
to break the hold.

1719
01:02:08,725 --> 01:02:11,094
[Wade] Walter kind of desperation

1720
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:12,128
this early in the matchup

1721
01:02:12,195 --> 01:02:13,262
but here you go.

1722
01:02:13,329 --> 01:02:14,797
Back to type with the huge strikes.

1723
01:02:14,864 --> 01:02:16,899
Immediately firing back though

1724
01:02:16,966 --> 01:02:18,501
is the Mad Russian Dragunov.

1725
01:02:18,568 --> 01:02:19,535
[Vic] There comes the challenger

1726
01:02:19,602 --> 01:02:20,837
right into the champ center of the ring.

1727
01:02:20,903 --> 01:02:22,939
Look at Dragunov, hard forearm.

1728
01:02:23,005 --> 01:02:24,841
Catching the chop,

1729
01:02:24,907 --> 01:02:26,776
the patented chop from Walter.

1730
01:02:26,843 --> 01:02:28,578
Dragunov trying to wrestle down

1731
01:02:28,644 --> 01:02:30,913
the champ back down to the mat.

1732
01:02:30,980 --> 01:02:31,948
Will he be successful?

1733
01:02:32,014 --> 01:02:33,549
Dragunov again

1734
01:02:33,616 --> 01:02:35,184
looking for another submission

1735
01:02:35,251 --> 01:02:37,320
trying to cling on the right arm.

1736
01:02:37,386 --> 01:02:38,588
[Beth] We know the devastation

1737
01:02:38,654 --> 01:02:39,756
that chop can cause.

1738
01:02:39,822 --> 01:02:41,524
Very intelligent here by Dragunov

1739
01:02:41,591 --> 01:02:43,693
to isolate that arm and try to damage--

1740
01:02:43,759 --> 01:02:46,629
Look at the short arm scissors transition

1741
01:02:46,696 --> 01:02:47,997
by Dragunov.

1742
01:02:48,064 --> 01:02:49,532
Beautiful strategy.

1743
01:02:49,599 --> 01:02:50,967
[Vic] Dragunov doing a nice job too

1744
01:02:51,033 --> 01:02:52,435
keeping Walter close to him

1745
01:02:52,502 --> 01:02:54,137
not to feel the effect of those chops.

1746
01:02:54,203 --> 01:02:56,906
[Wade] See the size difference of the two.

1747
01:02:56,973 --> 01:02:58,741
What a smart strategy from Dragunov

1748
01:02:58,808 --> 01:03:00,143
to keep the big man grounded

1749
01:03:00,209 --> 01:03:02,845
and really neutralize that size.

1750
01:03:02,912 --> 01:03:05,248
It is a metaphorical mountain

1751
01:03:05,314 --> 01:03:07,183
that Dragunov has to climb tonight

1752
01:03:07,250 --> 01:03:09,118
against the big Austrian.

1753
01:03:09,185 --> 01:03:10,453
So far so good.

1754
01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:12,221
[Vic] Look at Dragunov's veins popping out

1755
01:03:12,288 --> 01:03:14,157
just trying everything he can to hold on

1756
01:03:14,223 --> 01:03:15,691
but now being muscled up

1757
01:03:15,758 --> 01:03:17,527
high above Walter.

1758
01:03:17,593 --> 01:03:20,463
Dragunov trying to continue

1759
01:03:20,530 --> 01:03:22,698
to hold onto Walter as best he can.

1760
01:03:22,765 --> 01:03:23,933
[Wade] Hanging on for dear life.

1761
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:25,501
Let go, you're on the outside.

1762
01:03:25,568 --> 01:03:28,437
[Vic] Oh, and finally Walter connects.

1763
01:03:34,510 --> 01:03:36,445
Talking about changing the complexion

1764
01:03:36,512 --> 01:03:37,713
of a matchup.

1765
01:03:37,780 --> 01:03:39,148
[Beth] Want to know why his reign

1766
01:03:39,215 --> 01:03:41,284
has been 870 days?

1767
01:03:41,350 --> 01:03:44,353
That massive chop is a big part of it.

1768
01:03:44,420 --> 01:03:45,421
[Vic] Watch out guys.

1769
01:03:45,488 --> 01:03:46,322
Right out here.

1770
01:03:46,389 --> 01:03:48,124
Walter, we've seen this in the past.

1771
01:03:48,491 --> 01:03:49,725
Powerbomb.

1772
01:03:51,327 --> 01:03:53,930
Spine first goes Dragunov.

1773
01:03:53,996 --> 01:03:56,365
[Wade] You get the sense that now finally

1774
01:03:56,432 --> 01:03:58,367
"the general" has got control

1775
01:03:58,434 --> 01:03:59,502
of this matchup.

1776
01:03:59,569 --> 01:04:02,305
It is punishment time for Ilja Dragunov.

1777
01:04:02,371 --> 01:04:05,708
[Crowd chants "Walter"]

1778
01:04:06,943 --> 01:04:08,311
[Vic] Oh.

1779
01:04:10,980 --> 01:04:12,615
It's just that nasty side.

1780
01:04:12,682 --> 01:04:13,683
Now Walter

1781
01:04:13,749 --> 01:04:15,384
could be looking for the sleeper.

1782
01:04:15,451 --> 01:04:16,552
Trying to put down Ilja.

1783
01:04:16,619 --> 01:04:18,187
Dragunov trying his best to block.

1784
01:04:18,254 --> 01:04:19,622
Trying to keep his arms extended,

1785
01:04:19,689 --> 01:04:21,991
not allowing Walter to fully sync in.

1786
01:04:22,058 --> 01:04:23,526
Walter's patented submission.

1787
01:04:23,593 --> 01:04:25,695
[Wade] That's exactly what shut the door

1788
01:04:25,761 --> 01:04:26,996
on Dragunov's chances

1789
01:04:27,063 --> 01:04:29,832
in their first matchup 10 months ago.

1790
01:04:29,899 --> 01:04:32,735
[Beth] Dragunov clearly not wanting that

1791
01:04:32,802 --> 01:04:33,870
to happen again,

1792
01:04:33,936 --> 01:04:35,972
but you see this with the size of Walter

1793
01:04:36,038 --> 01:04:36,873
becomes the issue.

1794
01:04:36,939 --> 01:04:39,141
[Vic] German suplex from Walter,

1795
01:04:39,208 --> 01:04:41,377
and Dragunov back to his feet

1796
01:04:41,444 --> 01:04:42,912
and then falls almost collapses

1797
01:04:42,979 --> 01:04:44,981
in the turnbuckles. Take a look.

1798
01:04:45,047 --> 01:04:46,382
Ilja has been taking a beating

1799
01:04:46,449 --> 01:04:47,583
but listen to this.

1800
01:04:51,354 --> 01:04:52,188
[Beth] One more time

1801
01:04:52,255 --> 01:04:53,489
and you see Walter right here

1802
01:04:53,556 --> 01:04:54,991
just landing him on a corner.

1803
01:04:55,057 --> 01:04:56,025
[Vic] Oh, no.

1804
01:04:56,092 --> 01:04:57,994
[Beth] Ilja has struggled to recover

1805
01:04:58,060 --> 01:04:59,695
since then, but he's not done.

1806
01:04:59,762 --> 01:05:03,499
German suplex hurting Ilja inside out.

1807
01:05:03,566 --> 01:05:05,401
[Vic] Now Walter imposing his will

1808
01:05:05,468 --> 01:05:06,736
against the challenger.

1809
01:05:06,802 --> 01:05:08,471
Could be looking for a Boston crab

1810
01:05:08,537 --> 01:05:10,373
if Walter could turn Dragunov.

1811
01:05:10,439 --> 01:05:11,274
Think about the pain.

1812
01:05:11,340 --> 01:05:13,109
Must be shooting through Dragunov's spine

1813
01:05:13,175 --> 01:05:14,610
after that powerbomb

1814
01:05:14,677 --> 01:05:16,812
on the outside of the ring apron.

1815
01:05:16,879 --> 01:05:18,781
Walter trying to step over kicks

1816
01:05:18,848 --> 01:05:19,815
right to the spine.

1817
01:05:19,882 --> 01:05:22,184
Now, Walter has turned over Dragunov.

1818
01:05:22,251 --> 01:05:25,688
[Wade] It's 297 pounds of Austrian

1819
01:05:25,755 --> 01:05:27,723
on the small of the back

1820
01:05:27,790 --> 01:05:29,558
of Ilja Dragunov.

1821
01:05:29,625 --> 01:05:31,193
Right in the center of the ring.

1822
01:05:31,260 --> 01:05:33,195
Try dragging your way out of that one,

1823
01:05:33,262 --> 01:05:34,764
biting on his own hand

1824
01:05:34,830 --> 01:05:36,332
in order to cope with the pain.

1825
01:05:36,399 --> 01:05:37,667
[Vic] Walter transitioning

1826
01:05:37,733 --> 01:05:38,968
into another submission.

1827
01:05:39,035 --> 01:05:40,469
[Beth] Look at the awkward angle

1828
01:05:40,536 --> 01:05:42,104
of the knee of Dragunov

1829
01:05:42,171 --> 01:05:44,307
as Walter just clubbing away

1830
01:05:44,373 --> 01:05:45,841
trying to get that cross-face

1831
01:05:45,908 --> 01:05:47,476
contorting the spine.

1832
01:05:47,543 --> 01:05:49,211
[Vic] You mean Walter's face

1833
01:05:49,278 --> 01:05:50,546
turning colors earlier tonight?

1834
01:05:50,613 --> 01:05:52,281
What about Dragunov's face now

1835
01:05:52,348 --> 01:05:54,717
as Walter, and as Wade just pointed out

1836
01:05:54,784 --> 01:05:57,820
nearly 300 pounds across the back

1837
01:05:57,887 --> 01:05:59,455
as the Capitol Wrestling Center

1838
01:05:59,522 --> 01:06:01,324
willing on the challenger here tonight.

1839
01:06:01,390 --> 01:06:03,726
Quickly smapmared over Walter.

1840
01:06:03,793 --> 01:06:05,461
Oh, another kick to the spine.

1841
01:06:05,528 --> 01:06:08,130
[Wade] Never wasting a single opportunity

1842
01:06:08,197 --> 01:06:10,966
to deliver extra pain to the challenger

1843
01:06:11,033 --> 01:06:13,703
especially, apparently to that spine

1844
01:06:13,769 --> 01:06:15,504
of Ilja Dragunov.

1845
01:06:15,571 --> 01:06:20,076
[crowd chanting "Walter"]

1846
01:06:22,244 --> 01:06:23,612
[Vic] Walter has slowed the complexion

1847
01:06:23,679 --> 01:06:25,348
of this matchup down and out of form.

1848
01:06:25,414 --> 01:06:26,649
Look, Walter believed

1849
01:06:26,716 --> 01:06:28,150
Dragunov doesn't even have

1850
01:06:28,217 --> 01:06:30,286
the mental ability to step up tonight

1851
01:06:30,353 --> 01:06:31,320
in this matchup.

1852
01:06:31,387 --> 01:06:33,222
Dragunov trying everything

1853
01:06:33,289 --> 01:06:35,424
to chop down the champ.

1854
01:06:35,491 --> 01:06:36,859
Oh.

1855
01:06:37,593 --> 01:06:39,428
Again, the sleeper.

1856
01:06:39,895 --> 01:06:41,530
Once with the sleeper again.

1857
01:06:41,597 --> 01:06:42,898
Dragunov able to block,

1858
01:06:42,965 --> 01:06:44,900
putting his hands up the best he can do.

1859
01:06:44,967 --> 01:06:47,103
But now, it looks like it's cinched in.

1860
01:06:47,169 --> 01:06:49,238
[Beth] Walter's got it locked in tight

1861
01:06:49,305 --> 01:06:51,273
and switching to powerbomb position.

1862
01:06:51,340 --> 01:06:53,609
[Vic] Oh, Dragunov able to block.

1863
01:06:53,676 --> 01:06:57,013
Dragunov lifts up 300 pounds of Walter.

1864
01:06:57,213 --> 01:06:58,948
[Wade] Yes, he's flipped him over,

1865
01:06:59,015 --> 01:07:00,549
but that took everything

1866
01:07:00,616 --> 01:07:02,485
that Ilja Dragunov had.

1867
01:07:03,019 --> 01:07:05,187
[Beth] Dragunov gasping for air.

1868
01:07:06,122 --> 01:07:08,057
Oh, right back kick onto the jaw.

1869
01:07:08,124 --> 01:07:09,558
Walter's rocked.

1870
01:07:09,625 --> 01:07:10,593
Dragunov feeling it.

1871
01:07:10,659 --> 01:07:11,827
Bounces off with a big clothesline.

1872
01:07:11,894 --> 01:07:12,828
Walter's still on his feet.

1873
01:07:12,895 --> 01:07:14,163
Champ rocked again.

1874
01:07:14,230 --> 01:07:15,197
Clothesline to the back.

1875
01:07:15,264 --> 01:07:16,098
Dragunov runs in

1876
01:07:16,165 --> 01:07:17,666
but ran right into a knee.

1877
01:07:18,100 --> 01:07:19,869
Around goes Dragunov.

1878
01:07:19,935 --> 01:07:21,303
Constantine special blocked.

1879
01:07:21,370 --> 01:07:22,938
Oh, what a suplex.

1880
01:07:23,005 --> 01:07:23,939
Center of the ring for Walter.

1881
01:07:24,006 --> 01:07:26,575
Are we going to see day 871.

1882
01:07:26,642 --> 01:07:28,277
And a kick out by Dragunov.

1883
01:07:29,245 --> 01:07:31,447
[Wade] Dragunov desperately clinging on.

1884
01:07:31,514 --> 01:07:33,282
You know there's no way that man

1885
01:07:33,349 --> 01:07:35,017
has the words "I quit" in his body

1886
01:07:35,084 --> 01:07:36,585
as we see another attack

1887
01:07:36,652 --> 01:07:38,487
and a Constantine special.

1888
01:07:38,654 --> 01:07:40,956
Walter just having it too well scouted.

1889
01:07:41,023 --> 01:07:42,224
Turned it into a suplex

1890
01:07:42,291 --> 01:07:44,093
and just a smidge away

1891
01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:45,161
from the three-count.

1892
01:07:45,227 --> 01:07:47,263
[Crowd chanting "Walter"]

1893
01:07:51,067 --> 01:07:52,535
[Vic] Walter tonight, of course,

1894
01:07:52,601 --> 01:07:54,503
wants to remind the world

1895
01:07:54,570 --> 01:07:56,238
how dominating he is

1896
01:07:56,305 --> 01:07:57,673
leading by example

1897
01:07:57,740 --> 01:07:58,841
for the rest of Imperium

1898
01:07:58,908 --> 01:08:00,643
which is watching this match closely.

1899
01:08:00,709 --> 01:08:02,244
[Wade] Absolutely, Imperium lads

1900
01:08:02,311 --> 01:08:03,279
are left in no doubt

1901
01:08:03,345 --> 01:08:05,481
as to what standards are expected

1902
01:08:05,548 --> 01:08:06,749
by the general, Walter.

1903
01:08:06,816 --> 01:08:08,617
The match is sacred.

1904
01:08:11,020 --> 01:08:14,423
Walter is a do as I say

1905
01:08:14,490 --> 01:08:16,325
kind of general.

1906
01:08:17,993 --> 01:08:19,595
[Vic] Oh.

1907
01:08:22,264 --> 01:08:24,700
[Wade] Upper chest and neck

1908
01:08:24,767 --> 01:08:27,570
of Dragunov is red raw.

1909
01:08:31,407 --> 01:08:34,043
[Vic] Just take a look at the handprint

1910
01:08:34,109 --> 01:08:37,012
across the chest of Dragunov.

1911
01:08:38,848 --> 01:08:40,349
Somehow the challenger

1912
01:08:40,416 --> 01:08:42,351
Back to his feet and then gets caught

1913
01:08:42,418 --> 01:08:43,552
with a size 17.

1914
01:08:43,619 --> 01:08:46,589
Dragunov could be out.

1915
01:08:46,655 --> 01:08:48,524
[Wade] He has absolutely no clue

1916
01:08:48,591 --> 01:08:50,159
where he's at right now.

1917
01:08:50,226 --> 01:08:51,827
Walter realizes that,

1918
01:08:51,894 --> 01:08:53,229
just stalking his prey.

1919
01:08:53,295 --> 01:08:54,997
[Beth] When we talk about, Wade,

1920
01:08:55,064 --> 01:08:56,999
you mentioned a buffet of pain.

1921
01:08:57,066 --> 01:08:58,534
Well, there's an extra helping

1922
01:08:58,601 --> 01:08:59,502
right there.

1923
01:08:59,568 --> 01:09:00,669
[Vic] Oh!

1924
01:09:01,403 --> 01:09:03,105
[Wade] This guy is ridiculous.

1925
01:09:03,172 --> 01:09:05,074
The harder you hit Dragunov

1926
01:09:05,140 --> 01:09:06,475
the more angry,

1927
01:09:06,542 --> 01:09:08,244
the more ferocious he gets.

1928
01:09:08,310 --> 01:09:10,112
[Vic] Dragunov said, "Bring it."

1929
01:09:10,179 --> 01:09:11,780
Walter doing just that,

1930
01:09:11,847 --> 01:09:13,449
It's what we've come to expect

1931
01:09:13,516 --> 01:09:14,650
from these superstars

1932
01:09:14,717 --> 01:09:15,784
and it was Dragunov

1933
01:09:15,851 --> 01:09:17,286
who regained the ability

1934
01:09:17,353 --> 01:09:18,821
to control his emotions,

1935
01:09:18,888 --> 01:09:19,955
but at some point

1936
01:09:20,022 --> 01:09:21,490
you got to let the emotions flow.

1937
01:09:21,557 --> 01:09:23,125
[Beth] Dragunov lacing those fingers

1938
01:09:23,192 --> 01:09:24,894
to try to get more leverage.

1939
01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:26,495
Can he get it locked in?

1940
01:09:26,562 --> 01:09:28,130
[Vic] Looking for a submission is Ilja.

1941
01:09:28,197 --> 01:09:30,032
Walter trying to get back to his knees

1942
01:09:30,099 --> 01:09:31,567
create a little separation,

1943
01:09:31,634 --> 01:09:33,536
but now Dragunov, knee after knee

1944
01:09:33,602 --> 01:09:35,538
right to the massive chest of the champ.

1945
01:09:35,604 --> 01:09:36,772
[Wade] Somehow,

1946
01:09:36,839 --> 01:09:38,874
turning this one at the dime,

1947
01:09:38,941 --> 01:09:41,544
dominating now with these huge back fists

1948
01:09:41,610 --> 01:09:43,646
to the neck of the champ.

1949
01:09:47,383 --> 01:09:48,417
[Beth] Any normal man

1950
01:09:48,484 --> 01:09:49,752
would be knocked out cold

1951
01:09:49,818 --> 01:09:50,786
from one of those.

1952
01:09:51,387 --> 01:09:52,488
[Vic] Oh.

1953
01:09:52,955 --> 01:09:54,356
We knew it would be physical.

1954
01:09:54,423 --> 01:09:55,724
We knew it would be brutal.

1955
01:09:55,791 --> 01:09:57,126
Again, now look at Dragunov

1956
01:09:57,193 --> 01:09:58,627
repeated with the elbows.

1957
01:09:58,694 --> 01:09:59,662
Walter center of the ring.

1958
01:09:59,728 --> 01:10:01,297
able though to block one elbow

1959
01:10:01,363 --> 01:10:02,698
trying to hoist up Dragunov.

1960
01:10:02,765 --> 01:10:04,667
Challenger upon the champ's shoulders.

1961
01:10:04,733 --> 01:10:05,901
Again, it's how Ilja

1962
01:10:05,968 --> 01:10:07,169
trying to fight free.

1963
01:10:07,236 --> 01:10:08,771
Lands on his feet,

1964
01:10:08,837 --> 01:10:09,738
doesn't relinquish

1965
01:10:09,805 --> 01:10:11,907
and now he just caught Walter in the jaw.

1966
01:10:12,808 --> 01:10:15,144
[Wade] The champ is absolutely raw,

1967
01:10:15,211 --> 01:10:16,212
but can Dragunov

1968
01:10:16,278 --> 01:10:18,113
even gets himself himself to his feet

1969
01:10:18,180 --> 01:10:19,348
to make this count?

1970
01:10:19,415 --> 01:10:21,150
[Vic] Look at the chest of Dragunov.

1971
01:10:21,217 --> 01:10:23,419
[crowd chanting]

1972
01:10:27,289 --> 01:10:31,093
[Wade] Oh! Just a beat too long.

1973
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,162
[Vic] What a lariat. God!

1974
01:10:33,228 --> 01:10:36,131
Cover by Walter to retain the NXT UK--

1975
01:10:36,198 --> 01:10:38,133
Dragunov kicks out of two.

1976
01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:39,668
[Wade] That is the difference

1977
01:10:39,735 --> 01:10:41,070
between being great

1978
01:10:41,136 --> 01:10:45,140
and being an 870-day reigning champion.

1979
01:10:45,207 --> 01:10:46,141
[Beth] Ilja said

1980
01:10:46,208 --> 01:10:47,710
he will not accept failure

1981
01:10:47,776 --> 01:10:49,478
but check out this.

1982
01:10:49,979 --> 01:10:51,313
Once again,

1983
01:10:51,547 --> 01:10:54,617
vicious offense from Walter continues.

1984
01:10:57,086 --> 01:10:59,688
[referee] One, two, three.

1985
01:10:59,855 --> 01:11:02,858
[crowd cheering]

1986
01:11:03,959 --> 01:11:05,661
[Vic] Capitol Wrestling Center

1987
01:11:05,728 --> 01:11:06,595
fired up.

1988
01:11:06,662 --> 01:11:07,630
What a match.

1989
01:11:07,696 --> 01:11:10,466
10 months in the making for the rematch.

1990
01:11:10,532 --> 01:11:12,001
For the most anticipated rematch

1991
01:11:12,067 --> 01:11:14,470
in NXT UK history.

1992
01:11:14,536 --> 01:11:17,573
[crowd chanting "Walter"]

1993
01:11:19,842 --> 01:11:22,645
Walter, the longest reigning champion

1994
01:11:22,711 --> 01:11:25,047
in WWE's modern era to his feet.

1995
01:11:25,114 --> 01:11:26,915
The challenger Ilja Dragunov,

1996
01:11:26,982 --> 01:11:29,218
Oh! Pulled himself up.

1997
01:11:31,387 --> 01:11:32,421
[Wade] Not one.

1998
01:11:32,488 --> 01:11:33,989
What kind of impact is that?

1999
01:11:34,056 --> 01:11:35,891
Not only on the body but the mind

2000
01:11:35,958 --> 01:11:37,526
of Ilja Dragunov.

2001
01:11:37,826 --> 01:11:41,363
[audience cheering]

2002
01:11:41,430 --> 01:11:42,998
[Vic] Dragunov, we talked about

2003
01:11:43,065 --> 01:11:44,566
being able to control his rage

2004
01:11:44,633 --> 01:11:46,468
and in some moment it would boil over.

2005
01:11:46,535 --> 01:11:48,304
[Beth] Feeding off of the pain,

2006
01:11:48,370 --> 01:11:49,905
funneling that pain

2007
01:11:49,972 --> 01:11:51,974
into some offense of his own.

2008
01:11:52,041 --> 01:11:52,975
[Vic] You got to be kidding me.

2009
01:11:53,042 --> 01:11:55,644
That's 300 pounds over the German suplex.

2010
01:12:00,082 --> 01:12:01,750
Look at the blood blisters

2011
01:12:01,817 --> 01:12:03,185
on the neck of Dragunov.

2012
01:12:03,252 --> 01:12:05,187
[Wade] Dragunov like a man possessed,

2013
01:12:05,254 --> 01:12:06,889
but once again in a beat

2014
01:12:06,955 --> 01:12:08,757
"the general's" back up.

2015
01:12:09,058 --> 01:12:10,926
[Vic] It's always Dragunov, charging in

2016
01:12:10,993 --> 01:12:12,528
beat under the jaw of Walter.

2017
01:12:12,594 --> 01:12:13,696
Champion is rocked.

2018
01:12:13,762 --> 01:12:15,397
No way, no way.

2019
01:12:15,464 --> 01:12:17,933
Walter up and over.

2020
01:12:18,767 --> 01:12:20,602
Dragunov into the cover.

2021
01:12:20,669 --> 01:12:23,672
-One, two--
-No.

2022
01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:28,277
Just able to kick out is Walter.

2023
01:12:28,777 --> 01:12:30,813
Wow. But look at the eyes.

2024
01:12:30,879 --> 01:12:33,048
Look at the eyes, Beth, of the challenger.

2025
01:12:34,049 --> 01:12:40,389
[crowd chants "This is awesome"]

2026
01:12:40,456 --> 01:12:42,791
[Vic] This indeed is awesome.

2027
01:12:42,858 --> 01:12:43,826
This is all about

2028
01:12:43,892 --> 01:12:45,994
the NXT UK championship.

2029
01:12:46,061 --> 01:12:48,030
The challenger, Ilja Dragunov,

2030
01:12:48,097 --> 01:12:49,365
high above the ring,

2031
01:12:49,431 --> 01:12:51,266
looking to fly.

2032
01:12:51,333 --> 01:12:53,836
Champion pulled center of the ring.

2033
01:12:54,370 --> 01:12:55,771
Oh.

2034
01:12:56,271 --> 01:12:59,641
Again, it's Dragunov goes to the dropkick.

2035
01:12:59,708 --> 01:13:01,110
No wasting time,

2036
01:13:01,176 --> 01:13:03,045
Dragunov quickly scaling the ropes.

2037
01:13:03,445 --> 01:13:05,047
Dragunov looking down.

2038
01:13:05,114 --> 01:13:06,715
Senton connects.

2039
01:13:13,055 --> 01:13:14,923
Dragunov could feel it.

2040
01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:19,795
Charging in and oh, no, no, no.

2041
01:13:19,862 --> 01:13:20,896
Dragunov got caught,

2042
01:13:20,963 --> 01:13:22,131
looking for the Torpedo Moscow,

2043
01:13:22,197 --> 01:13:23,031
gets caught with the sleeper

2044
01:13:23,098 --> 01:13:24,099
center of the ring.

2045
01:13:24,166 --> 01:13:26,201
[Wade] That sleeper locked in by--

2046
01:13:26,268 --> 01:13:28,270
Oh, landing high

2047
01:13:28,337 --> 01:13:29,972
on the back of the neck

2048
01:13:30,038 --> 01:13:32,574
after that modified German suplex,

2049
01:13:32,641 --> 01:13:33,776
but straight back--

2050
01:13:33,842 --> 01:13:37,446
[Vic] Torpedo Moscow! Walter's rocked.

2051
01:13:37,513 --> 01:13:39,915
Dragunov, no, can't capitalize.

2052
01:13:39,982 --> 01:13:42,351
[Crowd chanting]

2053
01:13:47,055 --> 01:13:49,525
[Beth] How are either of these two men

2054
01:13:49,725 --> 01:13:52,494
still moving after all of this?

2055
01:13:53,028 --> 01:13:54,963
Let's take a look one more time

2056
01:13:55,030 --> 01:13:57,866
to the back of the neck and shoulders

2057
01:13:57,933 --> 01:13:59,768
taking Walter down.

2058
01:13:59,835 --> 01:14:01,270
[Vic] Back to live action.

2059
01:14:01,336 --> 01:14:02,938
Ilja with Walter in his sight,

2060
01:14:03,005 --> 01:14:05,841
charges in, lands over Walter.

2061
01:14:05,908 --> 01:14:08,377
-Into the cover, hook to the leg.
-One, two--

2062
01:14:08,443 --> 01:14:10,879
[Vic] Oh, you got to-- Come on!

2063
01:14:14,917 --> 01:14:21,857
[Crowd chants "NXT"]

2064
01:14:27,396 --> 01:14:30,098
[Wade] Torpedo Moscow failing

2065
01:14:30,165 --> 01:14:31,567
to put Walter away

2066
01:14:31,633 --> 01:14:33,936
and perhaps Ilja Dragunov

2067
01:14:34,002 --> 01:14:36,672
now realizes, "If that doesn't work,

2068
01:14:36,738 --> 01:14:39,808
what else do I have left in the tank?"

2069
01:14:39,875 --> 01:14:44,413
[crowd chants "awesome"]

2070
01:14:47,649 --> 01:14:51,320
[crowd gasps]
-Oh!

2071
01:14:51,386 --> 01:14:54,223
[Vic] It's turning into a test of the soul

2072
01:14:54,289 --> 01:14:56,191
between Dragunov and Walter.

2073
01:14:56,258 --> 01:14:57,726
And again now going low.

2074
01:14:57,793 --> 01:14:59,394
Into the thigh goes Dragunov.

2075
01:14:59,461 --> 01:15:01,129
Dragunov charges-- Oh.

2076
01:15:01,196 --> 01:15:02,130
And just get trapped,

2077
01:15:02,197 --> 01:15:03,298
Walter quickly into the cover.

2078
01:15:03,365 --> 01:15:04,933
Hooking the leg to retain the title

2079
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:06,501
and Dragunov kicks out.

2080
01:15:06,568 --> 01:15:09,404
[Wade] Walter has taken the best shots

2081
01:15:09,471 --> 01:15:10,572
of Ilja Dragunov

2082
01:15:10,639 --> 01:15:12,608
not once but twice now.

2083
01:15:12,674 --> 01:15:15,310
Still on his feet, still going up top.

2084
01:15:15,377 --> 01:15:16,945
[Vic] Walter for a moment gets caught.

2085
01:15:17,012 --> 01:15:19,081
No, no, no.

2086
01:15:21,183 --> 01:15:23,018
That be the damndest Superplex

2087
01:15:23,085 --> 01:15:24,987
I've ever seen.

2088
01:15:25,053 --> 01:15:26,755
[Wade] This man is an absolute animal.

2089
01:15:26,822 --> 01:15:28,824
What on earth has possessed him?

2090
01:15:30,425 --> 01:15:32,227
[Vic] Dragunov, going to the air

2091
01:15:32,294 --> 01:15:33,395
with a dropkick.

2092
01:15:33,462 --> 01:15:35,564
Gets all the dropkick, but again

2093
01:15:35,631 --> 01:15:37,733
so much bet, so much taken out

2094
01:15:37,799 --> 01:15:39,334
the champion and challenger.

2095
01:15:39,535 --> 01:15:41,503
[Beth] Dragunov, the relentless pursuit

2096
01:15:41,570 --> 01:15:43,572
of the NXT UK champion.

2097
01:15:43,639 --> 01:15:45,474
Please look at the chest,

2098
01:15:45,541 --> 01:15:47,876
the back, the waltz.

2099
01:15:48,076 --> 01:15:50,178
Every inch of Dragunov skin.

2100
01:15:51,947 --> 01:15:56,084
[crowd chants "fight forever"]

2101
01:15:56,885 --> 01:15:58,053
[Vic] Ultimate show of--

2102
01:15:58,120 --> 01:16:01,290
A dropkick, 300 pounds

2103
01:16:01,356 --> 01:16:02,624
throwing a dropkick.

2104
01:16:02,691 --> 01:16:04,293
Walter, up goes the challenger.

2105
01:16:04,359 --> 01:16:06,128
Powerbomb, into the cover,

2106
01:16:06,194 --> 01:16:07,362
center of the ring.

2107
01:16:07,429 --> 01:16:09,131
The reign continues-- Does it?

2108
01:16:09,331 --> 01:16:10,566
The reign doesn't continue.

2109
01:16:10,766 --> 01:16:12,701
[Beth] The crowd said, "fight forever".

2110
01:16:12,768 --> 01:16:14,503
They just might.

2111
01:16:23,912 --> 01:16:25,047
[Wade] Oh, my word.

2112
01:16:25,113 --> 01:16:26,415
Walter just dropkicked

2113
01:16:26,481 --> 01:16:29,351
the soul out of Ilja Dragunov,

2114
01:16:29,418 --> 01:16:30,852
hitting him with a powerbomb,

2115
01:16:30,919 --> 01:16:33,188
yet still the Russian continues.

2116
01:16:40,329 --> 01:16:42,564
[Vic] Listen to the brutality.

2117
01:16:42,631 --> 01:16:44,232
Oh.

2118
01:16:44,299 --> 01:16:46,301
Dragunov going on instinct right now.

2119
01:16:46,368 --> 01:16:49,271
Walter again, another powerbomb.

2120
01:16:49,972 --> 01:16:51,139
Walter though,

2121
01:16:51,206 --> 01:16:53,775
Walter instead of going for the cover.

2122
01:16:54,710 --> 01:16:56,612
[Wade] The referee even looks concern.

2123
01:16:56,678 --> 01:16:57,813
[Vic] This is how Walter

2124
01:16:57,879 --> 01:16:59,314
won the championship.

2125
01:16:59,381 --> 01:17:00,582
To the top.

2126
01:17:00,649 --> 01:17:02,651
Big splash.

2127
01:17:02,718 --> 01:17:04,753
-Walter--
-One, two--

2128
01:17:04,820 --> 01:17:07,489
Oh.

2129
01:17:08,924 --> 01:17:11,259
You got to be kidding me, man.

2130
01:17:11,326 --> 01:17:12,761
[Wade] How much is enough?

2131
01:17:14,363 --> 01:17:17,299
[Beth] This is absolutely inhuman.

2132
01:17:17,366 --> 01:17:18,767
Please look at this impact

2133
01:17:18,834 --> 01:17:20,102
to the sternum here.

2134
01:17:20,168 --> 01:17:22,504
Dragunov sent really head over heels

2135
01:17:22,571 --> 01:17:25,874
and then he continued with a powerbomb.

2136
01:17:26,341 --> 01:17:28,210
High on the shoulders

2137
01:17:28,276 --> 01:17:30,412
and then followed up by this moment.

2138
01:17:30,479 --> 01:17:32,547
Walter taking to the air,

2139
01:17:33,215 --> 01:17:35,183
all 290 pounds,

2140
01:17:35,250 --> 01:17:36,618
landing from the top rope,

2141
01:17:36,685 --> 01:17:39,287
but Dragunov is still in this.

2142
01:17:39,955 --> 01:17:41,390
[Vic] But right now the champ

2143
01:17:41,456 --> 01:17:43,091
on top of the challenger,

2144
01:17:43,158 --> 01:17:45,394
raining down rights, raining down lefts,

2145
01:17:45,460 --> 01:17:47,796
and now finally again locking in

2146
01:17:47,863 --> 01:17:48,764
that sleeper.

2147
01:17:48,830 --> 01:17:50,999
[Wade] This is exactly how we wanted it

2148
01:17:51,066 --> 01:17:53,368
but somehow Dragunov after that pounding

2149
01:17:53,435 --> 01:17:56,004
managing to make his work out of it.

2150
01:17:56,071 --> 01:17:57,539
But only answered by a boot

2151
01:17:57,606 --> 01:17:58,907
from the Austrian.

2152
01:17:58,974 --> 01:18:01,276
[Vic] Holler up the top and drop and no!

2153
01:18:01,610 --> 01:18:05,247
Dragunov again rocking the champ.

2154
01:18:07,816 --> 01:18:10,118
Dragunov, you got to imagine,

2155
01:18:10,185 --> 01:18:11,520
is leaving everything tonight

2156
01:18:11,586 --> 01:18:12,421
in the ring.

2157
01:18:12,487 --> 01:18:13,688
Look at Dragunov.

2158
01:18:13,755 --> 01:18:15,457
Raining down elbows one after another

2159
01:18:15,524 --> 01:18:16,358
goes Dragunov.

2160
01:18:16,425 --> 01:18:17,859
Challenger wearing out the champ.

2161
01:18:17,926 --> 01:18:19,061
Referee great position.

2162
01:18:19,127 --> 01:18:20,829
Walter trying to defend himself.

2163
01:18:20,896 --> 01:18:22,230
Dragunov on his back.

2164
01:18:22,697 --> 01:18:24,433
Pulling on his back is Dragunov.

2165
01:18:24,499 --> 01:18:25,867
[Wade] Sleeper of his own,

2166
01:18:25,934 --> 01:18:28,203
squeezing the champ center of the ring.

2167
01:18:28,270 --> 01:18:30,272
The champ looking like he's fading.

2168
01:18:30,338 --> 01:18:32,240
[Vic] Ilja trying to squeeze Walter,

2169
01:18:32,307 --> 01:18:33,442
trying to take out

2170
01:18:33,508 --> 01:18:36,044
but somehow Walter to his feet.

2171
01:18:36,111 --> 01:18:37,779
[Wade] Just too big, too strong,

2172
01:18:37,846 --> 01:18:39,715
fighting his way out of there.

2173
01:18:39,781 --> 01:18:41,516
[Beth] Oh, my god. No way.

2174
01:18:47,189 --> 01:18:50,592
[Vic] Precarious position. Oh!

2175
01:18:51,460 --> 01:18:54,296
That's one way to break the sleeper

2176
01:18:54,362 --> 01:18:55,797
if you're Walter.

2177
01:18:55,864 --> 01:18:57,499
Look at Dragunov, relentless.

2178
01:18:57,566 --> 01:18:59,534
[Wade] The man has snapped.

2179
01:19:01,470 --> 01:19:02,871
[Vic] One after another.

2180
01:19:02,938 --> 01:19:04,072
Strike after strike.

2181
01:19:04,139 --> 01:19:06,374
The sleeper's locked in by Dragunov.

2182
01:19:06,441 --> 01:19:07,576
Dragunov again

2183
01:19:07,642 --> 01:19:09,344
trying to squeeze the will,

2184
01:19:09,411 --> 01:19:11,046
trying to squeeze the life,

2185
01:19:11,113 --> 01:19:13,682
trying to squeeze the championship reign

2186
01:19:13,749 --> 01:19:14,683
out of Walter.

2187
01:19:14,750 --> 01:19:16,585
[Beth] Walter seeing the world around him

2188
01:19:16,651 --> 01:19:19,221
start to go black, struggling once again

2189
01:19:19,287 --> 01:19:20,255
to get his feet,

2190
01:19:20,322 --> 01:19:22,257
but all the weight of Dragunov

2191
01:19:22,324 --> 01:19:23,391
weighing down on him

2192
01:19:23,458 --> 01:19:25,293
as he clenches those carotid arteries.

2193
01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:27,429
[Vic] For a second time. Oh.

2194
01:19:27,496 --> 01:19:29,731
[Wade] But still Dragunov holds on!

2195
01:19:29,798 --> 01:19:31,399
Sleeper still locked in.

2196
01:19:31,466 --> 01:19:33,635
[Vic] Dragunov will not be denied.

2197
01:19:33,702 --> 01:19:36,538
Squeezing the determination, the will,

2198
01:19:36,605 --> 01:19:38,540
the fighting spirit of the man

2199
01:19:38,607 --> 01:19:40,675
who always moves forward.

2200
01:19:40,742 --> 01:19:42,444
Dragunov holding on.

2201
01:19:42,511 --> 01:19:44,713
Walter is fading center of the ring.

2202
01:19:44,780 --> 01:19:47,115
[Wade] Ilja clinging on for dear life here

2203
01:19:47,182 --> 01:19:49,718
loading up mug shots yet again.

2204
01:19:49,785 --> 01:19:52,387
Champion in a world of pain.

2205
01:19:52,454 --> 01:19:55,757
Champ fading before our eyes.

2206
01:19:57,459 --> 01:19:59,795
[Vic] CWC, Walter and Ilja Dragunov.

2207
01:20:01,163 --> 01:20:02,731
Oh, to the back of the neck.

2208
01:20:03,365 --> 01:20:05,800
Dragunov again with another forearm.

2209
01:20:07,569 --> 01:20:10,872
Dragunov locks in the sleeper!

2210
01:20:10,939 --> 01:20:13,742
[bell rings] Walter tapped!

2211
01:20:13,809 --> 01:20:14,976
[Wade] Oh my god!

2212
01:20:16,311 --> 01:20:19,181
[announcer] And your winner by submission

2213
01:20:19,247 --> 01:20:25,086
and new NXT United Kingdom champion,

2214
01:20:25,153 --> 01:20:29,791
Ilja Dragunov!

2215
01:20:29,858 --> 01:20:35,430
[Dragunov's music plays]

2216
01:20:35,497 --> 01:20:37,899
[Vic] The pure emotion

2217
01:20:38,834 --> 01:20:41,002
coming out Ilja Dragunov

2218
01:20:41,069 --> 01:20:45,440
who finally achieves his dream.

2219
01:20:46,508 --> 01:20:49,177
[Beth] He achieved the dream.

2220
01:20:49,244 --> 01:20:51,713
His son Constantine will wake up tomorrow

2221
01:20:51,780 --> 01:20:53,849
and find that his father

2222
01:20:53,915 --> 01:20:58,220
is the NXT UK champion.

2223
01:20:58,286 --> 01:21:01,456
[Vic] What a moment for Ilja Dragunov

2224
01:21:01,523 --> 01:21:06,228
who ends the 870-day reign of Walter.

2225
01:21:06,294 --> 01:21:07,629
[Beth] To say this was a war

2226
01:21:07,696 --> 01:21:10,165
is the understatement of the century.

2227
01:21:10,232 --> 01:21:12,500
Dragunov giving every ounce

2228
01:21:12,567 --> 01:21:13,835
of his being

2229
01:21:13,902 --> 01:21:16,137
to defeat Walter here tonight.

2230
01:21:17,005 --> 01:21:18,974
[Vic] We saw just about everything

2231
01:21:19,040 --> 01:21:20,141
in this matchup.

2232
01:21:20,208 --> 01:21:22,878
Both of these superstars brought it

2233
01:21:22,944 --> 01:21:25,180
from start to finish.

2234
01:21:25,247 --> 01:21:29,217
A rematch 10 months in the making

2235
01:21:29,284 --> 01:21:32,787
delivered on all levels of brutality,

2236
01:21:32,854 --> 01:21:34,222
of physicality,

2237
01:21:34,289 --> 01:21:36,658
of pure aggression, of desire,

2238
01:21:36,725 --> 01:21:38,460
of will, of determination.

2239
01:21:38,627 --> 01:21:42,697
And in the end, Dragunov victorious.

2240
01:21:42,898 --> 01:21:46,268
We witnessed chaos, we witnessed rage

2241
01:21:46,334 --> 01:21:49,504
and the unbeatable kingdom has fallen

2242
01:21:49,571 --> 01:21:51,740
to the new NXT UK champion

2243
01:21:51,806 --> 01:21:53,942
Ilja Dragunov.

2244
01:21:54,109 --> 01:21:58,613
[crowd cheering]

2245
01:21:58,680 --> 01:22:05,620
[music]

2246
01:22:10,292 --> 01:22:13,929
Yes!

2247
01:22:16,064 --> 01:22:18,166

Only at wweshop.com.

2251
01:22:53,168 --> 01:22:55,303
Gentlemen, Cameron Grimes,

2252
01:22:55,370 --> 01:22:57,973
the new Million Dollar champion.

2253
01:22:58,039 --> 01:22:59,941
How does it feel?

2254
01:23:00,642 --> 01:23:01,710
McKenzie, there's a man

2255
01:23:01,776 --> 01:23:03,478
that's looking down on me right now

2256
01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:07,048
and he's smiling ear to ear

2257
01:23:07,115 --> 01:23:08,516
because his boy

2258
01:23:08,583 --> 01:23:10,785
just became a champion.

2259
01:23:11,052 --> 01:23:14,022
Not only a champion, McKenzie Mitchell,

2260
01:23:14,456 --> 01:23:17,525
but the Million Dollar champion.

2261
01:23:17,592 --> 01:23:19,160
That's right, Cameron.

2262
01:23:19,227 --> 01:23:21,363
I said I came here looking for someone

2263
01:23:21,429 --> 01:23:22,597
who could carry on the legacy

2264
01:23:22,664 --> 01:23:23,898
of the Million Dollar Man

2265
01:23:23,965 --> 01:23:25,934
and when I saw the fight in you,

2266
01:23:26,001 --> 01:23:28,103
every time I watched you get in the ring,

2267
01:23:28,169 --> 01:23:30,238
sometimes you got beat up, you got beat up

2268
01:23:30,305 --> 01:23:31,339
a little bit tonight

2269
01:23:31,406 --> 01:23:32,507
but you have never been a quitter

2270
01:23:32,574 --> 01:23:33,708
and you weren't a quitter tonight

2271
01:23:33,775 --> 01:23:35,210
and because of that

2272
01:23:35,276 --> 01:23:37,579
you are the new Million Dollar champion.

2273
01:23:37,645 --> 01:23:40,315
I say that calls for a big celebration.

2274
01:23:40,382 --> 01:23:41,950
Here's where we're going to start

2275
01:23:42,017 --> 01:23:42,984
and, young lady,

2276
01:23:43,051 --> 01:23:44,719
you don't have to go party with us

2277
01:23:44,786 --> 01:23:46,454
but you go have a good time too

2278
01:23:46,521 --> 01:23:49,157
because this man is my man.

2279
01:23:49,224 --> 01:23:51,292
He's the man carrying on the legacy

2280
01:23:51,359 --> 01:23:52,627
of a Million Dollar Man

2281
01:23:52,694 --> 01:23:54,596
and I couldn't be prouder of you, pal.

2282
01:23:54,763 --> 01:23:57,032
The party don't have to stop tonight

2283
01:23:57,098 --> 01:23:59,134
just like this money ain't going to stop.

2284
01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:00,702
the party ain't going to stop.

2285
01:24:00,769 --> 01:24:04,072
Tonight, tomorrow night, Tuesday night.

2286
01:24:04,139 --> 01:24:06,574
The million dollar celebration.

2287
01:24:06,641 --> 01:24:13,648
You and me, we're going to the moon.

2288
01:24:13,715 --> 01:24:17,652
[Laughs] Whoa, yes.

2289
01:24:17,719 --> 01:24:18,753
[Vic] Will Samoa Joe

2290
01:24:18,820 --> 01:24:19,921
have the same success?

2291
01:24:19,988 --> 01:24:21,456
Putting in final preparations

2292
01:24:21,523 --> 01:24:24,125
for his NXT championship match

2293
01:24:24,192 --> 01:24:25,593
still to come later tonight

2294
01:24:25,660 --> 01:24:27,729
against Karrion Kross.

2295
01:24:32,434 --> 01:24:35,136
Joe, I was thinking

2296
01:24:35,203 --> 01:24:37,305
we've had differences over the years.

2297
01:24:37,639 --> 01:24:39,507
I'm very grateful though you came back

2298
01:24:39,574 --> 01:24:41,142
and helped me sort out the chaos.

2299
01:24:41,209 --> 01:24:42,043
Look at you now.

2300
01:24:42,110 --> 01:24:43,344
Got your boots on and your tape

2301
01:24:43,411 --> 01:24:44,746
and doing what you do best.

2302
01:24:44,813 --> 01:24:46,214
You're back on the active roster.

2303
01:24:47,415 --> 01:24:49,350
As the general manager of NXT,

2304
01:24:50,018 --> 01:24:52,220
I have to stay unbiased

2305
01:24:53,188 --> 01:24:55,990
and hope your championship match tonight

2306
01:24:56,958 --> 01:24:58,760
entertains the fans.

2307
01:25:01,663 --> 01:25:02,697
I want you to know

2308
01:25:02,764 --> 01:25:04,199
I want you to kick his--

2309
01:25:04,265 --> 01:25:07,035
[crowd cheering]

2310
01:25:10,805 --> 01:25:13,041
[music]

2311
01:25:13,108 --> 01:25:14,375
Mr. Regal's words are

2312
01:25:14,442 --> 01:25:16,845
just like the NXT UK championship match

2313
01:25:16,911 --> 01:25:18,279
we just witnessed,

2314
01:25:18,346 --> 01:25:19,781
nothing short of inspiring.

2315
01:25:19,848 --> 01:25:20,682
Absolutely.

2316
01:25:20,748 --> 01:25:21,983
And we talked about all night long

2317
01:25:22,050 --> 01:25:23,117
what a night it's been here

2318
01:25:23,184 --> 01:25:24,786
for NXT TakeOver 36,

2319
01:25:24,853 --> 01:25:26,421
but, coming up next,

2320
01:25:26,488 --> 01:25:27,989
is the most personal rivalry

2321
01:25:28,056 --> 01:25:29,724
in recent NXT memory.

2322
01:25:29,791 --> 01:25:31,860
It will be two out of three falls.

2323
01:25:31,926 --> 01:25:34,929
It's former brothers, former teammates

2324
01:25:34,996 --> 01:25:36,331
who have had a falling out

2325
01:25:36,397 --> 01:25:37,732
of epic proportions.

2326
01:25:37,799 --> 01:25:39,734
Kyle O'Reilly, Adam Cole.

2327
01:25:39,801 --> 01:25:41,803
The undisputed finale.

2328
01:25:41,870 --> 01:25:44,506
[music]

2329
01:25:44,572 --> 01:25:47,041
[dramatic music]

2330
01:25:59,988 --> 01:26:02,123
[Vic] And here we go!

2331
01:26:02,824 --> 01:26:05,026
Thrown to the outside and up in over.

2332
01:26:05,093 --> 01:26:06,728
[Wade] Busting out the heavy arms.

2333
01:26:06,794 --> 01:26:08,229
[Vic] Oh, no!

2334
01:26:08,296 --> 01:26:09,998
Across the neck!

2335
01:26:10,064 --> 01:26:12,000
Kyle got really, really lucky

2336
01:26:12,066 --> 01:26:12,901
at TakeOver.

2337
01:26:12,967 --> 01:26:14,235
[Kross] It's what next week is all about.

2338
01:26:14,302 --> 01:26:15,436
Testing myself

2339
01:26:15,503 --> 01:26:16,838
against the best competition

2340
01:26:16,905 --> 01:26:17,839
this industry has.

2341
01:26:17,906 --> 01:26:20,808
[Vic] Next week is Cole O'Reilly 2.

2342
01:26:20,875 --> 01:26:22,810
Panama sunrise!

2343
01:26:22,877 --> 01:26:24,712
You got to be kidding me.

2344
01:26:24,779 --> 01:26:26,714
Blast with a shot.

2345
01:26:27,315 --> 01:26:31,152
[man] Gentlemen, your match at TakeOver

2346
01:26:31,219 --> 01:26:33,821
will be contested two out of three falls.

2347
01:26:33,888 --> 01:26:35,857
You will both pick a stipulation.

2348
01:26:35,924 --> 01:26:37,992
If the match goes to a third fall

2349
01:26:38,059 --> 01:26:39,727
I will pick the stipulation.

2350
01:26:39,794 --> 01:26:41,629
At TakeOver 36 the first fall

2351
01:26:41,696 --> 01:26:44,199
it's going to be straight up pinfall,

2352
01:26:44,265 --> 01:26:45,166
no submission.

2353
01:26:45,233 --> 01:26:46,367
The second fall

2354
01:26:46,434 --> 01:26:48,803
needs to be a street fight.

2355
01:26:48,870 --> 01:26:50,838
We ain't going to a third fall.

2356
01:26:50,905 --> 01:26:54,676
I'm going to beat you two falls to zero

2357
01:26:54,742 --> 01:26:56,644
and I'm going to be the guy who wins

2358
01:26:56,711 --> 01:27:00,215
the Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly saga.

2359
01:27:02,350 --> 01:27:04,052
[Regal] Here's what is going to happen.

2360
01:27:04,852 --> 01:27:07,822
If there is a fall decided for me

2361
01:27:07,889 --> 01:27:11,125
it will be contested in a steel cage.

2362
01:27:11,192 --> 01:27:13,361
[dramatic music continues]

2363
01:27:16,965 --> 01:27:18,666
THE UNDISPUTED FINALE

2364
01:27:19,634 --> 01:27:21,202
The undisputed finale.

2365
01:27:21,569 --> 01:27:24,572
The end of an era. The end of the era.

2366
01:27:24,872 --> 01:27:27,108
No matter what happens,

2367
01:27:27,909 --> 01:27:28,977
for better for worse,

2368
01:27:29,043 --> 01:27:32,547
I walk away with closure.

2369
01:27:34,282 --> 01:27:36,684
When I think about everything

2370
01:27:36,751 --> 01:27:38,953
that the undisputed era has accomplished

2371
01:27:39,020 --> 01:27:40,989
and I think how you have

2372
01:27:41,055 --> 01:27:43,291
this preconceived notion

2373
01:27:43,358 --> 01:27:44,559
that you somehow

2374
01:27:44,626 --> 01:27:46,894
were a huge part of that journey.

2375
01:27:46,961 --> 01:27:48,596
You are kidding yourself.

2376
01:27:49,163 --> 01:27:50,298
You talk about everything

2377
01:27:50,365 --> 01:27:51,633
that we've been through,

2378
01:27:51,699 --> 01:27:52,967
everything we've accomplished,

2379
01:27:53,034 --> 01:27:54,702
everything we've done together.

2380
01:27:54,769 --> 01:27:57,272
Without me you are nothing.

2381
01:27:57,338 --> 01:27:58,940
Do you hear me?

2382
01:27:59,574 --> 01:28:01,175
Without Adam Cole,

2383
01:28:01,242 --> 01:28:03,411
Kyle O'Reilly is nothing.

2384
01:28:03,478 --> 01:28:05,246
You wouldn't have even made it

2385
01:28:05,313 --> 01:28:06,347
to NXT without me.

2386
01:28:06,414 --> 01:28:08,349
You would have never won a championship

2387
01:28:08,416 --> 01:28:09,550
without me.

2388
01:28:09,617 --> 01:28:10,585
You would have never been able

2389
01:28:10,652 --> 01:28:13,488
to stand in front of a 15,000 seat arena

2390
01:28:13,554 --> 01:28:15,823
with people chanting, "undisputed,"

2391
01:28:15,990 --> 01:28:16,824
without me.

2392
01:28:20,061 --> 01:28:21,829
It was always Adam Cole.

2393
01:28:21,896 --> 01:28:23,598
It always has been Adam Cole.

2394
01:28:23,665 --> 01:28:24,766
It always will be.

2395
01:28:28,436 --> 01:28:30,038
It blows my mind

2396
01:28:30,104 --> 01:28:31,739
that you somehow have tricked yourself

2397
01:28:31,806 --> 01:28:32,740
into thinking

2398
01:28:32,807 --> 01:28:34,309
that you're on the same level

2399
01:28:34,375 --> 01:28:35,410
as a guy like me.

2400
01:28:35,476 --> 01:28:38,279
I am a once in a lifetime superstar.

2401
01:28:39,147 --> 01:28:40,148
Nobody can touch me.

2402
01:28:40,214 --> 01:28:42,617
No one ever has, no one ever will.

2403
01:28:42,684 --> 01:28:44,786
I am the greatest superstar

2404
01:28:44,852 --> 01:28:47,055
that this brand has ever seen.

2405
01:28:47,121 --> 01:28:49,524
I carried you on my back.

2406
01:28:49,590 --> 01:28:52,393
The entire world knows it.

2407
01:28:52,460 --> 01:28:55,496
Hell, even your wife knows it.

2408
01:28:56,497 --> 01:28:58,199
Either we fight again on the sidewalk

2409
01:28:58,266 --> 01:28:59,500
or in the ring.

2410
01:28:59,567 --> 01:29:02,270
He can't say and do the things he's done

2411
01:29:02,337 --> 01:29:03,638
and get away with it.

2412
01:29:03,705 --> 01:29:05,707
Now that I don't give a--

2413
01:29:05,773 --> 01:29:07,008
I'm the most dangerous man

2414
01:29:07,075 --> 01:29:08,710
you've ever set foot in the ring with.

2415
01:29:08,776 --> 01:29:13,081
At TakeOver 36 I end Kyle O'Reilly

2416
01:29:13,681 --> 01:29:17,051
and that is undisputed.

2417
01:29:17,118 --> 01:29:18,753
You mean nothing to me.

2422

[announcer] The following contest

2423
01:30:09,637 --> 01:30:12,373
is a two out of three falls match.

2424
01:30:12,440 --> 01:30:15,977
Introducing first the Vancouver, BC

2425
01:30:16,043 --> 01:30:18,045
weighing in at 200 pounds,

2426
01:30:18,212 --> 01:30:22,049
Kyle O'Reilly.

[crowd cheering]

2428
01:30:36,097 --> 01:30:38,232

to see if you're prequalified now.

2433
01:30:49,177 --> 01:30:50,478
It is safe to say, Beth,

2434
01:30:50,545 --> 01:30:51,746
that Kyle O'Reilly--

2435
01:30:51,813 --> 01:30:52,847
I'm not sure

2436
01:30:52,914 --> 01:30:54,148
if you talked about it earlier tonight,

2437
01:30:54,215 --> 01:30:55,883
is done living in the shadows.

2438
01:30:55,950 --> 01:30:58,052
[Beth] Guys, there's a narrative of a host

2439
01:30:58,119 --> 01:30:59,220
that is spinning that--

2440
01:30:59,287 --> 01:31:00,655
Kyle O'Reilly is a number two.

2441
01:31:00,721 --> 01:31:01,589
I'm here to tell you,

2442
01:31:01,656 --> 01:31:03,891
O'Reilly's no follow-up or a lackey.

2443
01:31:04,058 --> 01:31:05,960
He's continued to prove that.

2444
01:31:06,327 --> 01:31:08,496
But putting this rivalry in the rear view

2445
01:31:08,563 --> 01:31:10,064
is the only way to step out

2446
01:31:10,131 --> 01:31:11,999
of the shadows of Adam Cole

2447
01:31:12,066 --> 01:31:13,367
once and for all.

2448
01:31:13,434 --> 01:31:15,303
It's time for the rubber match

2449
01:31:16,170 --> 01:31:18,172
to end this once and for all,

2450
01:31:18,239 --> 01:31:19,874
and O'Reilly to come out on top.

2451
01:31:19,941 --> 01:31:21,275
[Vic] Two out of three falls.

2452
01:31:21,342 --> 01:31:22,410
The first fall will be

2453
01:31:22,477 --> 01:31:23,678
a traditional matchup

2454
01:31:23,744 --> 01:31:25,046
followed by a street fight,

2455
01:31:25,112 --> 01:31:26,747
and if necessary,

2456
01:31:26,814 --> 01:31:27,748
as we heard

2457
01:31:27,815 --> 01:31:29,550
from our general manager William Regal,

2458
01:31:29,617 --> 01:31:31,786
the third fall will be contested

2459
01:31:31,853 --> 01:31:34,388
inside a steel cage.

2460

[crowd cheering]

2462
01:31:48,002 --> 01:31:49,270
[announcer] His opponent

2463
01:31:49,337 --> 01:31:51,405
from Panama City, Florida

2464
01:31:51,472 --> 01:31:54,475
weighing in at 205 pounds,

2465
01:31:54,542 --> 01:31:57,278
Adam Cole.

2466
01:31:57,345 --> 01:31:58,546
[crowd cheering]

2467
01:31:58,613 --> 01:31:59,447
[Vic] Oh, wait.

2468
01:31:59,514 --> 01:32:00,615
Who has more pressure

2469
01:32:00,681 --> 01:32:01,782
on their shoulders tonight?

2470
01:32:01,849 --> 01:32:03,084
[Wade] For me it's clear.

2471
01:32:03,150 --> 01:32:04,051
It's Kyle O'Reilly.

2472
01:32:04,118 --> 01:32:06,087
For all of Kyle's achievements,

2473
01:32:06,153 --> 01:32:07,755
he hasn't done what this man,

2474
01:32:07,822 --> 01:32:09,757
Adam Cole has done in NXT.

2475
01:32:09,824 --> 01:32:12,360
Like it it or not, he is in Cole's shadow.

2476
01:32:12,426 --> 01:32:15,463
He did step out briefly after his victory

2477
01:32:15,530 --> 01:32:17,398
at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver,

2478
01:32:17,465 --> 01:32:18,933
but then he went right back

2479
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:20,401
into the shadow once again

2480
01:32:20,468 --> 01:32:22,136
when Cole tied at one,

2481
01:32:22,203 --> 01:32:24,438
one at The Great American Bash.

2482
01:32:24,505 --> 01:32:25,973
Fail today and Kyle

2483
01:32:26,040 --> 01:32:27,441
will forever sit in the shade

2484
01:32:27,508 --> 01:32:29,210
cast by Adam Cole.

2485
01:32:33,180 --> 01:32:35,116
Boom!

[crowd chanting, "Cole"]

2488
01:32:50,131 --> 01:32:51,666
[Vic] We saw one more glance

2489
01:32:51,732 --> 01:32:53,401
from Cole to O'Reilly.

2490
01:32:53,467 --> 01:32:55,369
[Beth] There are some good points made,

2491
01:32:55,436 --> 01:32:57,138
and also to add on to that

2492
01:32:57,204 --> 01:32:58,673
although O'Reilly's proven himself

2493
01:32:58,739 --> 01:32:59,840
as the main event player,

2494
01:32:59,907 --> 01:33:01,742
Cole's had the most recent fall.

2495
01:33:01,809 --> 01:33:03,210
[Vic] Look at this though, Beth.
[bell rings]

2496
01:33:03,277 --> 01:33:05,046
Both men, squared right up

2497
01:33:05,112 --> 01:33:06,347
and going at it right on the bell.

2498
01:33:06,414 --> 01:33:07,515
You talk about tensions,

2499
01:33:07,581 --> 01:33:08,416
you talk about animosity,

2500
01:33:08,482 --> 01:33:09,917
talk about personal vendetta.

2501
01:33:09,984 --> 01:33:11,052
It's Cole-O'Reilly.

2502
01:33:13,354 --> 01:33:14,689
O'Reilly dropping Cole,

2503
01:33:14,755 --> 01:33:17,525
comes over here close to us

2504
01:33:17,592 --> 01:33:19,093
and look who's quickly on his heels.

2505
01:33:19,160 --> 01:33:21,429
[Wade] No feeling out process required,

2506
01:33:21,495 --> 01:33:24,332
flying knee from Kyle O'Reilly

2507
01:33:24,398 --> 01:33:26,334
catching the jaw of Adam Cole

2508
01:33:26,400 --> 01:33:27,868
and Cole alone and troubled

2509
01:33:27,935 --> 01:33:29,770
from the early goings in this one.

2510
01:33:29,837 --> 01:33:31,138
[Vic] These men are on the outside.

2511
01:33:31,205 --> 01:33:32,740
Again, is two out of three falls

2512
01:33:32,807 --> 01:33:34,442
in-- it's Kyle O'Reilly now,

2513
01:33:34,508 --> 01:33:36,243
ping ponging Cole.

2514
01:33:36,310 --> 01:33:37,845
[Beth] I don't think any of us are shocked

2515
01:33:37,912 --> 01:33:39,280
by the pace of this matchup

2516
01:33:39,347 --> 01:33:40,514
from the start.

2517
01:33:41,015 --> 01:33:42,883
O'Reilly has the game face on

2518
01:33:42,950 --> 01:33:44,919
looking to destroy Cole.

2519
01:33:44,986 --> 01:33:46,754
Oh no, Riley knocked right out

2520
01:33:46,821 --> 01:33:47,688
in front of us again.

2521
01:33:47,755 --> 01:33:48,956
What a nasty landing.

2522
01:33:49,023 --> 01:33:50,324
[Wade] Adam Cole, very smart

2523
01:33:50,391 --> 01:33:52,760
got away from Kyle O'Reilly,

2524
01:33:52,827 --> 01:33:54,061
put a little distance in there

2525
01:33:54,128 --> 01:33:56,497
and then capitalize-- [crosstalk]

2526
01:33:56,564 --> 01:33:57,531
This is supposed to be

2527
01:33:57,598 --> 01:33:59,000
a traditional matchup.

2528
01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:00,568
Far from it right now.

2529
01:34:00,634 --> 01:34:01,902
[Vic] You know what Cole's thinking?

2530
01:34:01,969 --> 01:34:03,437
-Oh, my word.
-No.

2531
01:34:03,504 --> 01:34:05,272
[Vic] Whoa, and whoa.

2532
01:34:05,806 --> 01:34:07,575
O'Reilly has felt

2533
01:34:07,642 --> 01:34:09,410
that solid steel in the past,

2534
01:34:09,477 --> 01:34:10,945
turns things around and--

2535
01:34:11,012 --> 01:34:12,680
-Now you know for sure.
-We can see the rage.

2536
01:34:12,747 --> 01:34:14,882
[Wade] Cole trying for that brainbuster

2537
01:34:14,949 --> 01:34:16,851
and thankfully for Kyle O'Reilly's safety

2538
01:34:16,917 --> 01:34:19,520
in this match and its continuation

2539
01:34:19,587 --> 01:34:21,055
managing to reverse it.

2540
01:34:21,122 --> 01:34:22,790
[Vic] Now O'Reilly measuring Cole

2541
01:34:22,857 --> 01:34:25,059
able to catch, O'Reilly is caught.

2542
01:34:25,126 --> 01:34:26,927
[Wade] Cole completely suckering in

2543
01:34:26,994 --> 01:34:28,129
Kyle O'Reilly.

2544
01:34:28,195 --> 01:34:29,830
Playing possum again,

2545
01:34:29,897 --> 01:34:31,932
Kyle O'Reilly's just too quick for him.

2546
01:34:31,999 --> 01:34:33,701
[Vic] Again, as Beth talked about

2547
01:34:33,768 --> 01:34:35,169
this rivalry.

2548
01:34:35,236 --> 01:34:36,337
The first two meetings

2549
01:34:36,404 --> 01:34:37,905
split this year leading us

2550
01:34:37,972 --> 01:34:39,507
to this undisputed finale.

2551
01:34:39,573 --> 01:34:41,709
Cole right now on the receiving end

2552
01:34:41,776 --> 01:34:43,277
and some vicious offense.

2553
01:34:43,344 --> 01:34:44,478
That could be a knockout blow.

2554
01:34:44,545 --> 01:34:45,379
-One.
-O'Reilly for the first

2555
01:34:45,446 --> 01:34:46,514
-Two.
-Fall into the cover

2556
01:34:46,580 --> 01:34:47,615
and a kick out.

2557
01:34:47,682 --> 01:34:48,582
[Wade] O'Reilly there

2558
01:34:48,649 --> 01:34:50,317
not even even locking a leg,

2559
01:34:50,384 --> 01:34:51,986
immediately gaming the [indistinct]

2560
01:34:52,053 --> 01:34:53,954
or perhaps go for that crossarm break.

2561
01:34:54,021 --> 01:34:55,356
[Vic] Look at that submission.

2562
01:34:55,423 --> 01:34:56,457
Cole trying to block it.

2563
01:34:56,524 --> 01:34:59,326
-Has his hands--
-Wisely--

2564
01:34:59,393 --> 01:35:00,895
-Walking--
-Wisely gripped.

2565
01:35:00,961 --> 01:35:02,730
[Vic] Looking, O'Reilly,

2566
01:35:02,797 --> 01:35:04,065
right into the ankle lock

2567
01:35:04,131 --> 01:35:05,232
center of the ring.

2568
01:35:05,299 --> 01:35:06,200
[Wade] Transition

2569
01:35:06,267 --> 01:35:07,735
from Brazilian jujitsu skills

2570
01:35:07,802 --> 01:35:10,037
from the master himself, Kyle O'Reilly.

2571
01:35:10,104 --> 01:35:11,105
[Vic] Oh, is Cole gonna tap?

2572
01:35:11,172 --> 01:35:12,339
[Wade] In these early goings--

2573
01:35:12,406 --> 01:35:13,374
[Vic] O'Reilly looking to pick up

2574
01:35:13,441 --> 01:35:14,508
the first fall and again,

2575
01:35:14,575 --> 01:35:16,043
Cole trying to fight his way free.

2576
01:35:16,110 --> 01:35:18,112
Wade, how important is the first fall

2577
01:35:18,179 --> 01:35:19,013
on this sort of matchup?

2578
01:35:19,080 --> 01:35:20,881
[Wade] Of course, it's important, but--

2579
01:35:22,149 --> 01:35:23,017
Oh, my word.

2580
01:35:23,084 --> 01:35:24,985
This could be the first fall right now.

2581
01:35:25,052 --> 01:35:26,754
[Vic] Cover, and a kick out.

2582
01:35:26,821 --> 01:35:27,922
[Wade] Let me tell you this,

2583
01:35:27,988 --> 01:35:29,423
you lose the first fall,

2584
01:35:29,490 --> 01:35:31,592
you leave yourself a mountain to climb.

2585
01:35:31,659 --> 01:35:32,526
It ain't the end

2586
01:35:32,593 --> 01:35:33,728
as we take another look

2587
01:35:33,794 --> 01:35:36,097
at this superb knee to the jaw

2588
01:35:36,163 --> 01:35:38,032
from O'Reilly, but let me tell you this:

2589
01:35:38,099 --> 01:35:39,567
you leave a mountain to climb

2590
01:35:39,633 --> 01:35:40,968
if you don't get the first.

2591
01:35:43,537 --> 01:35:45,573
[Beth] I disagree with you 100%, Wade.

2592
01:35:45,639 --> 01:35:47,608
The first fall is the most important.

2593
01:35:47,675 --> 01:35:49,376
Whoever says their first victory

2594
01:35:49,443 --> 01:35:51,112
sets the tone for the rest of the match.

2595
01:35:51,178 --> 01:35:53,514
[Vic] Oh, enzuigiri up side the head.

2596
01:35:53,581 --> 01:35:54,782
Wait a minute, coming back

2597
01:35:54,849 --> 01:35:56,984
O'Reilly catching the super kick spin

2598
01:35:57,051 --> 01:35:58,919
and now Cole delivers a clothesline.

2599
01:35:59,353 --> 01:36:01,288
Into the cover goes O'Reilly, looking for

2600
01:36:01,355 --> 01:36:03,057
that ever-important first fall.

2601
01:36:03,124 --> 01:36:05,759
Cole again and kicking out at two.

2602
01:36:05,826 --> 01:36:07,361
The pace these two are setting.

2603
01:36:07,428 --> 01:36:08,929
[Wade] Discus clothesline right there

2604
01:36:08,996 --> 01:36:10,231
with some real momentum

2605
01:36:10,297 --> 01:36:11,732
from Kyle O'Reilly.

2606
01:36:11,799 --> 01:36:13,567
Adam Cole just about--

2607
01:36:13,634 --> 01:36:15,402
-Looking for that knee.
-That will do it.

2608
01:36:15,469 --> 01:36:16,604
[Vic] Caught by the superkick.

2609
01:36:16,670 --> 01:36:18,205
[Wade] Cole not going for the cover,

2610
01:36:18,272 --> 01:36:19,540
that is a surprise.

2611
01:36:19,607 --> 01:36:20,808
That caught Kyle O'Reilly

2612
01:36:20,875 --> 01:36:22,743
flush on the jaw with momentum.

2613
01:36:22,810 --> 01:36:25,045
[Vic] Cole knows he might need more.

2614
01:36:25,112 --> 01:36:26,680
-looking for the Panama.
-Another sunrise.

2615
01:36:26,747 --> 01:36:27,782
[Vic] Able to block.

2616
01:36:27,848 --> 01:36:29,683
Shoulders down by O'Reilly.

2617
01:36:29,750 --> 01:36:31,552
O'Reilly got it!

2618
01:36:32,887 --> 01:36:35,389
[announcer] The winner of the first fall

2619
01:36:35,456 --> 01:36:37,658
is Kyle O'Reilly.

2620
01:36:37,725 --> 01:36:40,895
The second fall is a street fight

2621
01:36:40,961 --> 01:36:43,430
where anything goes.

2622
01:36:44,331 --> 01:36:46,500
[Wade] Wow, what a shocker

2623
01:36:46,567 --> 01:36:48,569
in the early goings.

2624
01:36:48,636 --> 01:36:50,504
Kyle O'Reilly going one up.

2625
01:36:50,571 --> 01:36:52,506
Let me clarify my statement earlier.

2626
01:36:52,573 --> 01:36:54,341
The first fall is not the most important.

2627
01:36:54,408 --> 01:36:57,178
The final fall is the most important,

2628
01:36:57,244 --> 01:37:00,047
but now just one fall away from victory

2629
01:37:00,114 --> 01:37:01,148
is Kyle O'Reilly,

2630
01:37:01,215 --> 01:37:03,150
and with the proverbial mountain to climb

2631
01:37:03,217 --> 01:37:05,186
-is Adam Cole.
-Cole realizing it

2632
01:37:05,252 --> 01:37:06,420
[Vic] and now it's a street fight.

2633
01:37:06,487 --> 01:37:08,489
Anything and everything is legal.

2634
01:37:08,556 --> 01:37:13,060
[crowd chants "we want tables"]

2635
01:37:14,328 --> 01:37:15,930
You can get just about everything

2636
01:37:15,996 --> 01:37:17,031
between these two.

2637
01:37:17,097 --> 01:37:19,400
The animosity at a all-time high.

2638
01:37:19,466 --> 01:37:22,369
The hatred at an old-time high as now Cole

2639
01:37:22,436 --> 01:37:24,505
with a steel chair to the stomach.

2640
01:37:24,572 --> 01:37:26,440
[Wade] Let's not forget who requested

2641
01:37:26,507 --> 01:37:27,474
the traditional match

2642
01:37:27,541 --> 01:37:28,843
because it's in his ballpark,

2643
01:37:28,909 --> 01:37:29,910
that was O'Reilly.

2644
01:37:29,977 --> 01:37:32,780
Who requested the street fight? Adam Cole,

2645
01:37:32,847 --> 01:37:34,682
because this is his wheelhouse.

2646
01:37:34,748 --> 01:37:36,817
He is a man who has no compassion

2647
01:37:36,884 --> 01:37:39,019
or empathy for other human beings

2648
01:37:39,086 --> 01:37:41,455
as we might see very soon.

2649
01:37:41,522 --> 01:37:43,791
[Vic] Cole is putting that to the limit.

2650
01:37:44,558 --> 01:37:47,127
No idea what's in the mind of Adam Cole,

2651
01:37:47,194 --> 01:37:49,430
The sadistic mind that--

2652
01:37:49,496 --> 01:37:52,600
Cole getting trash cans?

2653
01:37:52,666 --> 01:37:54,368
Kyle O'Reilly.

2654
01:37:54,435 --> 01:37:56,570
[Beth] Right where Adam Cole belongs.

2655
01:37:56,637 --> 01:37:57,905
[Wade] It might look ridiculous

2656
01:37:57,972 --> 01:37:59,440
but believe me this is tough.

2657
01:37:59,506 --> 01:38:02,109
You can't see your
opponent fly, and agony--

2658
01:38:02,176 --> 01:38:03,377
[Vic] You might not see him,

2659
01:38:03,444 --> 01:38:05,446
but Cole certainly felt O'Reilly.

2660
01:38:05,512 --> 01:38:07,314
[Wade] No way to protect yourself

2661
01:38:07,381 --> 01:38:08,482
from that impact.

2662
01:38:08,549 --> 01:38:11,085
Really intelligent move there from Kyle.

2663
01:38:11,151 --> 01:38:11,986
Highly effective.

2664
01:38:12,052 --> 01:38:13,587
[Beth] Maybe he can use the butler outfit

2665
01:38:13,654 --> 01:38:14,521
that's in there.

2666
01:38:14,588 --> 01:38:16,323
We see one more time O'Reilly

2667
01:38:16,390 --> 01:38:20,127
just taking in the steel garbage cans.

2668
01:38:20,594 --> 01:38:22,429
[Vic] It's hard not to think

2669
01:38:22,496 --> 01:38:23,597
of the ups and the downs

2670
01:38:23,664 --> 01:38:25,366
over the decade long friendship

2671
01:38:25,432 --> 01:38:26,300
between these two,

2672
01:38:26,367 --> 01:38:27,935
but both really have taken

2673
01:38:28,002 --> 01:38:31,005
the hatred for one another to new levels.

2674
01:38:32,640 --> 01:38:33,540
Kyle O'Reilly,

2675
01:38:33,607 --> 01:38:35,643
this is right in O'Reilly's wheelhouse,

2676
01:38:35,709 --> 01:38:36,677
wouldn't you say?

2677
01:38:36,744 --> 01:38:38,078
[Wade] I'd say quite the opposite.

2678
01:38:38,145 --> 01:38:39,313
It's Cole's wheelhouse,

2679
01:38:39,380 --> 01:38:40,915
but somehow O'Reilly

2680
01:38:40,981 --> 01:38:42,349
is taking the early goings

2681
01:38:42,416 --> 01:38:43,784
in this particular street fight--

2682
01:38:43,851 --> 01:38:45,619
[Vic] Think about Stand & Deliver.

2683
01:38:45,686 --> 01:38:47,488
[Wade] That was the shock of old jocks.

2684
01:38:47,554 --> 01:38:48,422
[Vic] Oh!

2685
01:38:48,489 --> 01:38:50,591
[Wade] That is why that man, Adam Cole,

2686
01:38:50,658 --> 01:38:52,226
wanted to put the situation to rest.

2687
01:38:52,293 --> 01:38:53,460
[Vic] Oh, wait a minute.

2688
01:38:53,527 --> 01:38:55,329
-O'Reilly--
-Did you see?

2689
01:38:55,663 --> 01:38:56,630
[Beth] Fell hard

2690
01:38:56,697 --> 01:38:57,631
on the corner of the apron.

2691
01:38:57,698 --> 01:38:58,799
Some desperation.

2692
01:38:58,866 --> 01:39:00,901
I feel some panic from Cole,

2693
01:39:00,968 --> 01:39:02,236
finding an opportunity

2694
01:39:02,303 --> 01:39:04,238
and O'Reilly just writhing in pain.

2695
01:39:04,305 --> 01:39:05,906
He may have broken a rib.

2696
01:39:05,973 --> 01:39:07,574
[Wade] Looks like he cracked something.

2697
01:39:07,641 --> 01:39:09,643
Thought it was his arm, but you're right,

2698
01:39:09,710 --> 01:39:11,178
I think it is indeed the rib.

2699
01:39:11,245 --> 01:39:12,212
[Beth] Oh my god.

2700
01:39:12,846 --> 01:39:14,415
[Wade] Straight into the corner

2701
01:39:14,481 --> 01:39:15,582
a tackle,

2702
01:39:15,649 --> 01:39:17,918
for once our table barely moving.

2703
01:39:17,985 --> 01:39:19,053
All of the impact of that

2704
01:39:19,119 --> 01:39:21,288
going to that damage midsection

2705
01:39:21,355 --> 01:39:22,356
of Kyle O'Reilly.

2706
01:39:22,423 --> 01:39:23,624
[Vic] Back to what you were saying,

2707
01:39:23,691 --> 01:39:26,593
Adam Cole has now a game plan:

2708
01:39:26,660 --> 01:39:28,996
There's a bulls-eye on the chest

2709
01:39:29,063 --> 01:39:31,732
as Beth mentioned, the ribs of Kyle.

2710
01:39:31,799 --> 01:39:33,434
Referee is checking on O'Reilly.

2711
01:39:33,500 --> 01:39:35,369
O'Reilly gasping for air.

2712
01:39:35,436 --> 01:39:37,371
[Beth] Let's not forget in this moment

2713
01:39:37,438 --> 01:39:41,141
Adam Cole, he's swimming upstream

2714
01:39:41,208 --> 01:39:42,443
and he is down one fall.

2715
01:39:42,509 --> 01:39:43,944
He's got to level the playing field

2716
01:39:44,011 --> 01:39:44,945
and do it fast.

2717
01:39:45,012 --> 01:39:46,413
[Vic] Oh, again into the ribs,

2718
01:39:46,480 --> 01:39:49,650
into the midsection, goes Adam Cole.

2719
01:39:53,787 --> 01:39:55,456
[Wade] We talked about it earlier.

2720
01:39:55,522 --> 01:39:56,757
-Sadistic--
-All legal.

2721
01:39:56,824 --> 01:39:58,092
[Wade] No empathy.

2722
01:39:58,158 --> 01:40:00,761
Just punishing and torturing that man.

2723
01:40:01,128 --> 01:40:02,596
Oh!

2724
01:40:02,963 --> 01:40:05,065
[Vic] The undeniable big match player,

2725
01:40:05,132 --> 01:40:07,167
Adam Cole.

2726
01:40:07,234 --> 01:40:09,003
He could be wiping his hands

2727
01:40:09,069 --> 01:40:11,171
here with the second fall.

2728
01:40:11,238 --> 01:40:12,906
[Beth] A world of trash talk

2729
01:40:12,973 --> 01:40:14,241
to go along with it.

2730
01:40:14,308 --> 01:40:16,910
[crowd chanting "one more time"]

2731
01:40:16,977 --> 01:40:18,545
[Vic] Cole could stake his claim

2732
01:40:18,612 --> 01:40:21,281
to being the greatest NXT superstar ever

2733
01:40:21,348 --> 01:40:22,416
here tonight.

2734
01:40:22,483 --> 01:40:24,184
[Wade] Could you really argue it

2735
01:40:24,251 --> 01:40:25,152
with someone?

2736
01:40:25,219 --> 01:40:28,188
Look at his record: triple crown winner

2737
01:40:28,255 --> 01:40:29,423
here in NXT.

2738
01:40:29,490 --> 01:40:32,626
The longest reigning NXT champion

2739
01:40:32,693 --> 01:40:33,660
in history.

2740
01:40:33,727 --> 01:40:35,295
[crowd cheering] If he wins tonight,

2741
01:40:35,362 --> 01:40:36,263
there will never be

2742
01:40:36,330 --> 01:40:37,531
another question asked.

2743
01:40:37,598 --> 01:40:38,999
Adam Cole is the man.

2744
01:40:39,066 --> 01:40:40,234
[Vic] Cole taking too much time.

2745
01:40:40,300 --> 01:40:42,336
-Cole proud of himself--
-Oh, no, O'Reilly.

2746
01:40:42,403 --> 01:40:43,537
He went for the right hand.

2747
01:40:43,604 --> 01:40:45,572
So much damage done to the midsection.

2748
01:40:45,639 --> 01:40:47,341
O'Reilly couldn't even throw a punch.

2749
01:40:47,408 --> 01:40:48,709
[Beth] When you have damage

2750
01:40:48,776 --> 01:40:50,310
to the ribs, the abdominal muscles,

2751
01:40:50,377 --> 01:40:52,980
even just raising your arms can be agony.

2752
01:40:53,047 --> 01:40:55,315
Kyle struggling to even get to this feet.

2753
01:40:55,382 --> 01:40:56,617
[Wade] Yes, I've got to say,

2754
01:40:56,683 --> 01:40:59,019
O'Reilly is on fall up right now,

2755
01:40:59,086 --> 01:41:00,954
but with those damaged ribs,

2756
01:41:01,021 --> 01:41:03,891
the favorite has to be Adam Cole.

2757
01:41:04,491 --> 01:41:06,627
He's battling a weakened man here.

2758
01:41:06,994 --> 01:41:07,861
[Beth] Cole's created

2759
01:41:07,928 --> 01:41:09,029
an implement of destruction

2760
01:41:09,096 --> 01:41:10,030
with that chair.

2761
01:41:10,097 --> 01:41:11,298
[Vic] Oh!

2762
01:41:11,698 --> 01:41:13,033
[Wade] Sliding out

2763
01:41:13,100 --> 01:41:14,701
in order to avoid the chair,

2764
01:41:14,768 --> 01:41:17,638
but catching the pole on the way out,

2765
01:41:17,704 --> 01:41:20,674
and the sadistic smile of Adam Cole

2766
01:41:20,741 --> 01:41:21,942
tells its own story.

2767
01:41:23,343 --> 01:41:26,814
[Vic] Cole enjoying every second of this.

2768
01:41:26,880 --> 01:41:30,984
Enjoying every second of the punishment

2769
01:41:31,051 --> 01:41:33,987
he is inflicting onto Kyle O'Reilly.

2770
01:41:34,054 --> 01:41:36,090
[Beth] Cole almost acting impressed.

2771
01:41:36,323 --> 01:41:38,859
[Vic] Again, right into the barricade.

2772
01:41:38,926 --> 01:41:40,694
Everything is legal.

2773
01:41:40,861 --> 01:41:42,463
The decision has to happen

2774
01:41:42,529 --> 01:41:43,831
inside the ring,

2775
01:41:43,897 --> 01:41:45,999
but Cole's having a lot of fun

2776
01:41:46,066 --> 01:41:48,035
at the expense of Kyle O'Reilly,

2777
01:41:48,102 --> 01:41:48,969
who can't get up.

2778
01:41:49,036 --> 01:41:50,504
[Wade] Yes, I'm struggling to see

2779
01:41:50,571 --> 01:41:54,108
a path to victory for Kyle O'Reilly

2780
01:41:54,174 --> 01:41:57,111
at this point, and Cole knows it.

2781
01:41:58,712 --> 01:42:01,315
Everything Adam Cole tries

2782
01:42:01,381 --> 01:42:03,484
works out to perfection.

2783
01:42:03,650 --> 01:42:06,086
[crowd cheering]

2784
01:42:08,822 --> 01:42:10,124
[Vic] Could be moments away

2785
01:42:10,190 --> 01:42:12,125
from a last shot.

2786
01:42:14,094 --> 01:42:15,329
Oh.

2787
01:42:15,662 --> 01:42:17,030
[Beth] Cole beating them in.

2788
01:42:17,097 --> 01:42:19,066
[Vic] Into the ribs again, and now,

2789
01:42:19,133 --> 01:42:20,834
an assisted backstabber

2790
01:42:20,901 --> 01:42:22,102
from Cole to O'Reilly

2791
01:42:22,169 --> 01:42:23,904
to win the second fall.

2792
01:42:23,971 --> 01:42:25,072
Cole into the cover.

2793
01:42:25,139 --> 01:42:27,307
O'Reilly kicks out at two.

2794
01:42:28,842 --> 01:42:29,676
[Wade] The referee

2795
01:42:29,743 --> 01:42:31,278
is taking a very good look.

2796
01:42:31,345 --> 01:42:33,914
She might even call this match very soon

2797
01:42:33,981 --> 01:42:36,750
if this punishment continues to Kyle.

2798
01:42:36,817 --> 01:42:38,118
-He literally--
-Now it's--

2799
01:42:38,185 --> 01:42:39,486
Wouldn't be able to continue.

2800
01:42:39,553 --> 01:42:40,888
[Vic] A submission locked in,

2801
01:42:40,954 --> 01:42:42,089
and look at Cole,

2802
01:42:42,156 --> 01:42:43,490
fingers into the mouth.

2803
01:42:43,557 --> 01:42:45,692
What you got? You're going to quit?

2804
01:42:47,361 --> 01:42:49,696
[Vic] More damage-- Oh, again!

2805
01:42:49,763 --> 01:42:51,598
[Wade] Kendo stick right in the jaw.

2806
01:42:51,665 --> 01:42:52,966
What do you say?

2807
01:42:53,033 --> 01:42:55,235
[crowd cheering]

2808
01:42:55,302 --> 01:42:57,237
[Vic] Cole talking a little bit of smack,

2809
01:42:57,304 --> 01:42:58,805
and now raining down elbows,

2810
01:42:58,872 --> 01:43:00,841
but look at the positioning

2811
01:43:00,908 --> 01:43:02,476
of O'Reilly's face, still on--

2812
01:43:02,543 --> 01:43:04,845
-Yes, and Cole--
-You got nothing, O'Reilly.

2813
01:43:04,912 --> 01:43:07,014
Cole wanting to submit him

2814
01:43:07,080 --> 01:43:09,049
to embarrassment.

2815
01:43:09,116 --> 01:43:10,651
It'd be satisfying for Cole

2816
01:43:10,717 --> 01:43:12,352
to hear him say, "I quit."

2817
01:43:12,419 --> 01:43:17,024
[crowd chanting "Adam Cole"]

2818
01:43:22,596 --> 01:43:25,132
My whole entire career,

2819
01:43:25,199 --> 01:43:26,934
I've been better than you.

2820
01:43:27,134 --> 01:43:28,535
You hear me?

2821
01:43:29,002 --> 01:43:30,671
Just stay down, Kyle.

2822
01:43:32,005 --> 01:43:33,407
Stay down, Kyle.

2823
01:43:33,607 --> 01:43:34,908
For 13 years--

2824
01:43:34,975 --> 01:43:37,177
[Vic] O'Reilly will not stay down!

2825
01:43:37,878 --> 01:43:40,113
[Beth] That just lit O'Reilly up,

2826
01:43:40,180 --> 01:43:42,182
working through the agony of those ribs.

2827
01:43:42,249 --> 01:43:43,517
[Vic] Imagine how hard it is

2828
01:43:43,584 --> 01:43:45,452
for Kyle to throw every punch,

2829
01:43:45,519 --> 01:43:47,487
every forearm, even to lift his arm.

2830
01:43:47,554 --> 01:43:49,156
Right back into the ribs.

2831
01:43:49,223 --> 01:43:50,924
Into the stomach goes Cole.

2832
01:43:52,459 --> 01:43:53,560
[Beth] Kyle's been unable

2833
01:43:53,627 --> 01:43:55,329
to get a full breath in.

2834
01:43:55,395 --> 01:43:57,998
[Vic] Oh, and now it's O'Reilly,

2835
01:43:58,065 --> 01:43:59,199
flurry of offense,

2836
01:43:59,266 --> 01:44:01,401
but just can't overcome the pain.

2837
01:44:01,468 --> 01:44:02,469
Front kick connects.

2838
01:44:02,536 --> 01:44:04,671
[Wade] Cole did not even have to stop

2839
01:44:04,738 --> 01:44:07,207
that flurry of Kyle. He stopped himself.

2840
01:44:07,274 --> 01:44:08,575
The body just gave in.

2841
01:44:08,642 --> 01:44:10,210
[Vic] Oh, snap German suplex.

2842
01:44:10,644 --> 01:44:13,180
Can O'Reilly make it 2 and 0?

2843
01:44:13,780 --> 01:44:15,983
Can O'Reilly put away Adam Cole?

2844
01:44:16,049 --> 01:44:18,785
[Wade] The ropes doing enough damage now,

2845
01:44:18,852 --> 01:44:20,654
still with the punt kick

2846
01:44:20,721 --> 01:44:22,155
to the chest of Cole.

2847
01:44:22,222 --> 01:44:24,424
Adrenaline makes a man do crazy things,

2848
01:44:24,491 --> 01:44:25,859
and now it's O'Reilly,

2849
01:44:25,926 --> 01:44:27,527
who could be positioning himself

2850
01:44:27,594 --> 01:44:30,364
to make it 2-0 in this street fight.

2851
01:44:30,831 --> 01:44:33,000
Knee-first goes Cole.

2852
01:44:33,066 --> 01:44:34,835
O'Reilly.

2853
01:44:34,901 --> 01:44:36,436
Oh.

2854
01:44:36,503 --> 01:44:39,539
[Wade] Dragon screw into that standing
chair,

2855
01:44:39,606 --> 01:44:41,408
forced the knee of Cole

2856
01:44:41,475 --> 01:44:43,410
might be shredded at this point.

2857
01:44:43,477 --> 01:44:44,778
[crowd cheering] Both men

2858
01:44:44,845 --> 01:44:46,046
walking wounded,

2859
01:44:46,113 --> 01:44:47,781
or crawling wounded, I should say.

2860
01:44:50,617 --> 01:44:52,552
[Vic] Cole first back to his feet.

2861
01:44:52,619 --> 01:44:54,488
O'Reilly now measuring Cole.

2862
01:44:54,554 --> 01:44:56,556
O'Reilly trying to block out the pain.

2863
01:44:56,623 --> 01:44:58,091
No!

2864
01:44:58,158 --> 01:45:00,060
[Beth] Once again to the midsection.

2865
01:45:00,127 --> 01:45:02,629
[Vic] The steel chair he put there.

2866
01:45:02,696 --> 01:45:04,464
Both men, same idea.

2867
01:45:04,531 --> 01:45:06,566
Charging back in for a second time.

2868
01:45:07,401 --> 01:45:09,236
-Oh.
-Double punt kick.

2869
01:45:09,303 --> 01:45:11,271
[Wade] Both men down.

2870
01:45:11,338 --> 01:45:14,174
[crowd cheering]

2871
01:45:17,477 --> 01:45:21,648
[Beth] You can just feel the intensity.

2872
01:45:21,715 --> 01:45:23,850
Both men having the same idea.

2873
01:45:23,917 --> 01:45:25,886
One more time, wow.

2874
01:45:25,952 --> 01:45:27,287
Double boot to the jaw,

2875
01:45:27,354 --> 01:45:28,855
sending both men to the mat.

2876
01:45:31,491 --> 01:45:33,560
[Vic] This the second fall.

2877
01:45:33,627 --> 01:45:35,529
O'Reilly won the first fall,

2878
01:45:35,595 --> 01:45:36,897
the traditional fall.

2879
01:45:36,963 --> 01:45:39,599
If O'Reilly can win this street fight,

2880
01:45:39,666 --> 01:45:41,635
Kyle O'Reilly will win--

2881
01:45:41,702 --> 01:45:43,103
What the?

2882
01:45:47,307 --> 01:45:48,141
A chain?

2883
01:45:48,208 --> 01:45:49,309
[Wade] And he knew exactly

2884
01:45:49,376 --> 01:45:50,444
where that was placed.

2885
01:45:50,510 --> 01:45:52,679
Clearly, did a little scouting pre-match.

2886
01:45:53,080 --> 01:45:55,716
[Vic] It's all legal in this street fight.

2887
01:45:57,417 --> 01:45:59,252
[Beth] Remember their unsanctioned match.

2888
01:45:59,319 --> 01:46:00,587
[Vic] [chuckles] Wait a minute.

2889
01:46:00,654 --> 01:46:02,923
[Audience cheering]

2890
01:46:05,992 --> 01:46:08,328
O'Reilly knows how to use a chain too.

2891
01:46:08,395 --> 01:46:09,696
[Wade] We are witnessing

2892
01:46:09,763 --> 01:46:11,565
pure malevolent theater.

2893
01:46:14,234 --> 01:46:16,303
[Vic] Both men going right at it.

2894
01:46:16,370 --> 01:46:18,505
This street fight taking an ugly turn.

2895
01:46:18,572 --> 01:46:20,307
Solid steel chains to the face,

2896
01:46:20,374 --> 01:46:21,274
to the body.

2897
01:46:21,341 --> 01:46:23,009
Cole getting the better of Kyle

2898
01:46:23,076 --> 01:46:25,011
O'Reilly going low, dropping the chain,

2899
01:46:25,078 --> 01:46:26,613
and Cole kick across the face.

2900
01:46:26,680 --> 01:46:28,148
Superkick under the jaw.

2901
01:46:28,215 --> 01:46:29,249
Cole quickly realizing,

2902
01:46:29,316 --> 01:46:30,617
and falls into the cover

2903
01:46:30,684 --> 01:46:32,085
for the second fall,

2904
01:46:32,152 --> 01:46:35,489
and O'Reilly just got his right shoulder

2905
01:46:35,555 --> 01:46:36,890
off the mat.

2906
01:46:36,957 --> 01:46:38,258
[Wade] Yes, connecting flush.

2907
01:46:38,325 --> 01:46:39,860
You saw the reverberation

2908
01:46:39,926 --> 01:46:41,995
on the jaw of Kyle O'Reilly

2909
01:46:42,062 --> 01:46:43,463
when that superkick connected,

2910
01:46:43,530 --> 01:46:46,666
but Cole unable to hook that leg,

2911
01:46:46,733 --> 01:46:47,934
get a tight pinfall.

2912
01:46:48,001 --> 01:46:51,071
[crowd cheering]

2913
01:46:54,407 --> 01:46:56,977
[Vic] Cole trying to--

2914
01:46:57,043 --> 01:46:59,346
Crawl his way up the ramp.

2915
01:46:59,413 --> 01:47:02,149
Look at Kyle O'Reilly giving chase.

2916
01:47:02,215 --> 01:47:03,950
[Beth] It might be wise considering

2917
01:47:04,017 --> 01:47:06,253
the ring's littered with devastation.

2918
01:47:06,319 --> 01:47:07,621
[Vic] These two just want

2919
01:47:07,687 --> 01:47:09,823
to rip each other apart.

2920
01:47:09,890 --> 01:47:11,324
Destroy the other.

2921
01:47:11,391 --> 01:47:13,627
Right to the stomach goes Cole.

2922
01:47:13,693 --> 01:47:16,630
[Wade] Intelligent work from Cole,

2923
01:47:16,696 --> 01:47:19,900
suckering in O'Reilly time and time again,

2924
01:47:19,966 --> 01:47:21,101
getting him to open--

2925
01:47:21,168 --> 01:47:22,335
-No.
-Here we go.

2926
01:47:22,402 --> 01:47:23,637
-Wait a minute.
-Guillotine.

2927
01:47:23,703 --> 01:47:25,138
[Vic] Guillotine locked in.

2928
01:47:25,205 --> 01:47:26,339
A submission doesn't matter

2929
01:47:26,406 --> 01:47:27,307
on the outside.

2930
01:47:27,374 --> 01:47:29,009
O'Reilly's got to get Cole

2931
01:47:29,075 --> 01:47:30,177
back into the ring.

2932
01:47:30,977 --> 01:47:32,746
[Beth] Cole is almost lights out.

2933
01:47:32,813 --> 01:47:35,215
[Vic] Oh, nice knee under the jaw.

2934
01:47:35,282 --> 01:47:36,683
Perfectly placed. Wait.

2935
01:47:36,750 --> 01:47:38,485
Oh, man.

2936
01:47:38,552 --> 01:47:40,020
[Wade] Cole crashing

2937
01:47:40,086 --> 01:47:41,822
into the security barrier,

2938
01:47:41,888 --> 01:47:43,523
and the cameraman.

2939
01:47:47,427 --> 01:47:49,529
[Beth] Kyle getting innovative.

2940
01:47:49,596 --> 01:47:51,565
[Indistinct] Adam Cole

2941
01:47:51,631 --> 01:47:53,467
punching that elbow,

2942
01:47:53,533 --> 01:47:55,569
trying to get feeling back into that hand.

2943
01:47:55,635 --> 01:47:57,571
[Wade] Shattered him on the radius,

2944
01:47:57,637 --> 01:47:58,972
in that forearm, but--

2945
01:47:59,039 --> 01:48:00,574
[Vic] Kyle just trying to get

2946
01:48:00,640 --> 01:48:02,976
as many breaths as he can in the ribs.

2947
01:48:03,043 --> 01:48:04,377
[Wade] He's wincing every time

2948
01:48:04,444 --> 01:48:06,112
he sucks in oxygen,

2949
01:48:06,179 --> 01:48:08,348
which causes a problem by itself

2950
01:48:08,415 --> 01:48:09,549
-if he can't have air--
-Wait.

2951
01:48:09,616 --> 01:48:11,017
[Vic] O'Reilly now.

2952
01:48:11,084 --> 01:48:12,319
Up goes Cole,

2953
01:48:12,385 --> 01:48:14,421
Cole able to block, and on the outside,

2954
01:48:14,487 --> 01:48:15,889
a neckbreaker.

2955
01:48:15,956 --> 01:48:19,125
[crowd applauding]

2956
01:48:19,192 --> 01:48:20,660
What lengths

2957
01:48:20,727 --> 01:48:22,896
are these two men willing to go

2958
01:48:23,096 --> 01:48:26,399
to destroy the other here tonight?

2959
01:48:26,466 --> 01:48:29,102
[crowd chanting "Adam Cole"]

2960
01:48:30,337 --> 01:48:32,939
Cole now back in on the outside.

2961
01:48:33,006 --> 01:48:34,708
Again, everything legal.

2962
01:48:34,774 --> 01:48:36,877
No rules in this street fight.

2963
01:48:37,043 --> 01:48:38,778
[Wade] Cole fighting for survival

2964
01:48:38,845 --> 01:48:40,046
in this matchup.

2965
01:48:40,113 --> 01:48:41,181
Lose the next fall,

2966
01:48:41,248 --> 01:48:43,316
and it's game over, Cole.

2967
01:48:43,383 --> 01:48:45,185
[Vic] Seeing Cole, to Beth's point,

2968
01:48:45,252 --> 01:48:47,354
favoring that right elbow

2969
01:48:47,420 --> 01:48:49,923
after crashing into the barricade

2970
01:48:49,990 --> 01:48:51,691
when O'Reilly threw him

2971
01:48:51,758 --> 01:48:53,193
off the stage entrance.

2972
01:48:54,594 --> 01:48:55,428
Where's the chair?

2973
01:48:55,495 --> 01:48:57,163
[Vic] What's Cole looking for?

2974
01:48:59,466 --> 01:49:01,601
Again, Cole with the steel chair.

2975
01:49:01,668 --> 01:49:03,904
[Beth] Familiar friend here for Adam Cole.

2976
01:49:04,671 --> 01:49:05,805
Oh, no.

2977
01:49:06,406 --> 01:49:08,441
[crowd cheering]

2978
01:49:08,508 --> 01:49:09,843
[Vic] We talked about those sick,

2979
01:49:09,910 --> 01:49:11,444
sadistic thoughts

2980
01:49:11,511 --> 01:49:13,547
flowing through the mind of Adam Cole.

2981
01:49:18,018 --> 01:49:18,985
Cole believes

2982
01:49:19,052 --> 01:49:21,021
there would be no Kyle O'Reilly

2983
01:49:21,087 --> 01:49:22,155
without Cole,

2984
01:49:22,222 --> 01:49:23,890
looking to put the final nail--

2985
01:49:23,957 --> 01:49:26,359
Wait a minute, O'Reilly able to counter.

2986
01:49:26,426 --> 01:49:28,128
Cole up on his shoulders.

2987
01:49:28,194 --> 01:49:30,130
Oh, and down across the knee.

2988
01:49:32,432 --> 01:49:34,234
And it's O'Reilly now,

2989
01:49:34,301 --> 01:49:36,236
who could possibly be putting

2990
01:49:36,303 --> 01:49:39,205
the final touches on this matchup.

2991
01:49:39,272 --> 01:49:41,575
[Beth] I know what Kyle has in mind.

2992
01:49:42,075 --> 01:49:43,410
[Wade] This is how he won

2993
01:49:43,476 --> 01:49:45,378
the unsanctioned match, but no.

2994
01:49:45,445 --> 01:49:47,247
-Oh, no.
-No!

2995
01:49:52,953 --> 01:49:55,155
Spine-first, what a shot

2996
01:49:55,221 --> 01:49:57,190
to the back of the neck.

2997
01:49:57,257 --> 01:49:59,859
-Cole, into the cover.
-One, two.

2998
01:49:59,926 --> 01:50:02,729
And we're headed to a third round.

2999
01:50:03,563 --> 01:50:05,899
[announcer] The winner of the second fall

3000
01:50:05,966 --> 01:50:07,934
is Adam Cole.

3001
01:50:08,668 --> 01:50:10,437
The third and final fall

3002
01:50:10,503 --> 01:50:12,572
will be the decided

3003
01:50:12,639 --> 01:50:17,077
in a steel cage match.

3004
01:50:17,143 --> 01:50:20,013
[crowd cheering]

3005
01:50:21,314 --> 01:50:24,684
[tense music]

3006
01:50:26,019 --> 01:50:26,853
[Vic] Wait up.

3007
01:50:26,920 --> 01:50:28,121
[Beth] Medical attention.

3008
01:50:28,188 --> 01:50:31,024
[Wade] We might not get to a third fall.

3009
01:50:31,257 --> 01:50:34,494
Kyle O'Reilly is in a seriously bad way

3010
01:50:34,561 --> 01:50:37,397
after that crash landing on two chairs.

3011
01:50:37,464 --> 01:50:39,132
The kidneys, the midsection, the ribs.

3012
01:50:39,199 --> 01:50:41,701
I don't know what's the problem, but--

3013
01:50:41,768 --> 01:50:43,570
[Vic] The steel cage is closing in

3014
01:50:43,637 --> 01:50:45,038
right over our heads.

3015
01:50:45,105 --> 01:50:46,940
The third final fall,

3016
01:50:47,007 --> 01:50:48,541
and Adam Cole looking around,

3017
01:50:48,608 --> 01:50:49,976
and he just yelled, "ring the bell".

3018
01:50:50,243 --> 01:50:51,911
-Cole could care less.
-Oh.

3019
01:50:51,978 --> 01:50:53,880
[Vic] to Beth's point, look at Cole.

3020
01:50:53,947 --> 01:50:55,448
[Wade] The cage isn't in place yet.

3021
01:50:55,515 --> 01:50:56,916
[Vic] Certainly is not.

3022
01:50:56,983 --> 01:51:02,055
Oh, again, to the ribs of Kyle O'Reilly.

3023
01:51:02,122 --> 01:51:03,123
[Beth] This is a man

3024
01:51:03,189 --> 01:51:04,924
with zero moral compass.

3025
01:51:04,991 --> 01:51:06,026
[Vic] Wait a minute.

3026
01:51:06,092 --> 01:51:07,861
-Watch out, guys.
-Oh my god.

3027
01:51:07,927 --> 01:51:09,829
[Vic] Oh.

3028
01:51:09,896 --> 01:51:12,732
[crowd cheering]

3029
01:51:20,740 --> 01:51:22,609
-You can't hit me.
-You stay right there.

3030
01:51:22,675 --> 01:51:25,445
-What do you mean?
-Come on!

3031
01:51:25,512 --> 01:51:27,380
[Vic] Cole yelling

3032
01:51:28,748 --> 01:51:30,216
for O'Reilly and Cole.

3033
01:51:30,850 --> 01:51:32,786
[Beth] There's no way Kyle can continue.

3034
01:51:32,852 --> 01:51:34,487
[Vic] The medicals in front of us.

3035
01:51:34,554 --> 01:51:36,056
trying to talk to Kyle.

3036
01:51:36,122 --> 01:51:37,524
[Wade] Medical staff doing their best,

3037
01:51:37,590 --> 01:51:38,591
but they ain't going to hold back

3038
01:51:38,658 --> 01:51:40,860
a rampaging Adam Cole, are they?

3039
01:51:41,361 --> 01:51:43,897
[Vic] Cole, getting the lifeless body

3040
01:51:43,963 --> 01:51:46,266
of O'Reilly back into the ring

3041
01:51:46,332 --> 01:51:49,402
for the third and final fall.

3042
01:51:52,839 --> 01:51:55,508
Do you want to continue? Okay.

3043
01:51:55,575 --> 01:51:57,010
[Beth] Now this,

3044
01:51:57,077 --> 01:51:59,312
is Adam Cole's playground.

3045
01:51:59,379 --> 01:52:01,247
[Vic] Beth, Kyle hasn't moved.

3046
01:52:01,314 --> 01:52:03,950
[Beth] He's been unable to stand.

3047
01:52:05,418 --> 01:52:07,353
[Vic] Let's go back

3048
01:52:07,420 --> 01:52:09,189
to some of the replays in this matchup

3049
01:52:09,255 --> 01:52:12,258
as they still check on Kyle O'Reilly,

3050
01:52:12,325 --> 01:52:14,227
Adam Cole seems very content

3051
01:52:14,294 --> 01:52:16,963
with what he has done thus far

3052
01:52:17,030 --> 01:52:18,264
here tonight.

3053
01:52:19,466 --> 01:52:21,434
Let's go back all the way, Beth,

3054
01:52:21,501 --> 01:52:22,402
to the first fall,

3055
01:52:22,469 --> 01:52:23,870
the traditional matchup,

3056
01:52:23,937 --> 01:52:25,305
all Kyle O'Reilly.

3057
01:52:25,371 --> 01:52:27,073
Adam Cole caught that super kick,

3058
01:52:27,140 --> 01:52:29,476
we thought it would be O'Reilly's moment

3059
01:52:29,542 --> 01:52:31,177
to win the first fall, however--

3060
01:52:32,245 --> 01:52:33,947
Excuse me, Cole, first fall,

3061
01:52:34,013 --> 01:52:35,248
instead it would be Kyle.

3062
01:52:35,315 --> 01:52:37,383
[Beth] Quick thinking here by Kyle.

3063
01:52:37,450 --> 01:52:40,954
snagging that W for O'Reilly.

3064
01:52:43,156 --> 01:52:44,824
[Vic] I'm sorry. I'm distracted.

3065
01:52:44,991 --> 01:52:46,526
They're still trying to talk to Kyle

3066
01:52:46,593 --> 01:52:49,329
but we got to go back to where this began.

3067
01:52:49,896 --> 01:52:52,832
The rib injury early on in the second fall

3068
01:52:52,899 --> 01:52:55,301
in the street fight to Kyle O'Reilly.

3069
01:52:55,368 --> 01:52:58,571
Adam Cole relentless, working the stomach,

3070
01:52:58,638 --> 01:53:00,740
working the mid-section and ribs

3071
01:53:00,807 --> 01:53:03,009
over and over again.

3072
01:53:03,209 --> 01:53:04,811
Continuing to apply the pressure

3073
01:53:04,978 --> 01:53:06,880
and the damage to Kyle O'Reilly.

3074
01:53:06,946 --> 01:53:08,148
[Beth] And we watched Kyle

3075
01:53:08,214 --> 01:53:09,682
just struggle to breath

3076
01:53:09,749 --> 01:53:10,850
from that moment on.

3077
01:53:10,917 --> 01:53:12,919
O'Reilly showing some resiliency.

3078
01:53:12,986 --> 01:53:14,487
Avoiding that chair in that moment.

3079
01:53:14,554 --> 01:53:16,790
Right here, turning it around,

3080
01:53:16,856 --> 01:53:18,992
if only for a short time.

3081
01:53:19,058 --> 01:53:21,261
Giving a little distance to Adam Cole.

3082
01:53:21,327 --> 01:53:22,962
[Vic] It was a short moment, but again,

3083
01:53:23,029 --> 01:53:24,230
right here, Cole,

3084
01:53:24,297 --> 01:53:25,131
and bang!

3085
01:53:25,198 --> 01:53:27,834
Nasty landing for Kyle O'Reilly.

3086
01:53:27,901 --> 01:53:29,269
Then, Adam Cole

3087
01:53:29,335 --> 01:53:30,870
will put the last shot, bang!

3088
01:53:31,571 --> 01:53:33,106
Into that street fight.

3089
01:53:33,506 --> 01:53:34,774
But this was moments ago,

3090
01:53:34,841 --> 01:53:35,875
and again, I'm looking up

3091
01:53:35,942 --> 01:53:37,577
trying to check on Kyle.

3092
01:53:37,644 --> 01:53:38,545
This happened

3093
01:53:38,611 --> 01:53:41,047
in between the second and third fall.

3094
01:53:41,114 --> 01:53:43,683
[Beth] The merciless onslaught continues.

3095
01:53:43,750 --> 01:53:45,885
You see, O'Reilly has not budged

3096
01:53:45,952 --> 01:53:47,420
since that moment.

3097
01:53:47,487 --> 01:53:49,088
Barely beginning to stir.

3098
01:53:49,155 --> 01:53:50,990
[Wade] I heard the medical staff

3099
01:53:51,057 --> 01:53:53,126
ask Kyle, "Can you continue?"

3100
01:53:53,193 --> 01:53:54,827
He grimaced a, "yes".

3101
01:53:54,894 --> 01:53:56,963
I don't quite believe it myself.

3102
01:53:57,030 --> 01:53:58,665
[Vic] He ain't going to give up.

3103
01:53:58,731 --> 01:54:00,033
He's not going to step down,

3104
01:54:00,099 --> 01:54:01,000
but right now,

3105
01:54:01,067 --> 01:54:04,671
Adam Cole is just wearing out O'Reilly.

3106
01:54:06,105 --> 01:54:07,307
[Wade] This is a layup

3107
01:54:07,373 --> 01:54:08,808
for Adam Cole right now.

3108
01:54:10,043 --> 01:54:11,377
[Vic] Cole, taking his sweet time.

3109
01:54:11,444 --> 01:54:13,713
Again, we talked about the mindset

3110
01:54:13,780 --> 01:54:14,848
of both these men.

3111
01:54:14,914 --> 01:54:16,082
I'll tell you this, Wade,

3112
01:54:16,149 --> 01:54:17,650
if Kyle wants to get back

3113
01:54:17,717 --> 01:54:18,618
into this matchup,

3114
01:54:18,685 --> 01:54:20,787
he'll have to find that killer mindset.

3115
01:54:20,853 --> 01:54:22,088
[Wade] That killer instinct,

3116
01:54:22,155 --> 01:54:23,590
he's found it once before,

3117
01:54:23,656 --> 01:54:24,791
at the unsanctioned match

3118
01:54:24,857 --> 01:54:27,160
at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver.

3119
01:54:27,227 --> 01:54:30,196
Somehow managing to come back

3120
01:54:30,263 --> 01:54:31,998
almost from the dead in this match

3121
01:54:32,065 --> 01:54:34,367
and take control against Adam Cole.

3122
01:54:34,434 --> 01:54:35,368
The question is,

3123
01:54:35,435 --> 01:54:38,137
how much damage has already been done

3124
01:54:38,204 --> 01:54:39,405
to Kyle O'Reilly?

3125
01:54:39,472 --> 01:54:40,473
[Vic] Adrenaline makes a man

3126
01:54:40,540 --> 01:54:41,541
do crazy things,

3127
01:54:41,608 --> 01:54:42,976
and that adrenaline is pumping

3128
01:54:43,042 --> 01:54:44,844
through the rage of Kyle O'Reilly.

3129
01:54:44,911 --> 01:54:45,812
[Wade] The body

3130
01:54:45,879 --> 01:54:47,747
can only manufacture so much.

3131
01:54:47,814 --> 01:54:49,983
[crowd cheering]

3132
01:54:50,049 --> 01:54:51,417
[Vic] Now, it's O'Reilly

3133
01:54:51,484 --> 01:54:52,885
going all the way to the top.

3134
01:54:52,952 --> 01:54:54,020
Looking down,

3135
01:54:54,087 --> 01:54:55,421
could be trying to hit the knee

3136
01:54:55,488 --> 01:54:57,323
across the back of the neck of Cole.

3137
01:54:58,024 --> 01:54:59,926
[Beth] We were worried that O'Reilly

3138
01:54:59,993 --> 01:55:01,327
would have nowhere to go, but it seems

3139
01:55:01,394 --> 01:55:03,429
Adam Cole is in big trouble,

3140
01:55:03,496 --> 01:55:05,164
being trapped in this steel cage.

3141
01:55:05,231 --> 01:55:06,933
[Vic] O'Reilly to the outside now

3142
01:55:07,000 --> 01:55:08,902
trying to be pulled up to the top

3143
01:55:08,968 --> 01:55:11,471
with the cage, pinfall or submission

3144
01:55:11,537 --> 01:55:12,438
or escape.

3145
01:55:12,505 --> 01:55:15,008
Kyle all the way up and nobody there.

3146
01:55:15,074 --> 01:55:17,710
Knee first, last shot doesn't connect.

3147
01:55:18,144 --> 01:55:19,212
O'Reilly, back up,

3148
01:55:19,279 --> 01:55:20,713
delivers one of his own.

3149
01:55:20,780 --> 01:55:21,614
Center of the ring,

3150
01:55:21,681 --> 01:55:23,549
O'Reilly now, into the cover

3151
01:55:23,616 --> 01:55:25,218
to win the third fall,

3152
01:55:25,285 --> 01:55:27,887
and Cole, kicks out at two.

3153
01:55:27,954 --> 01:55:31,691
Wade, that could have been the opportunity

3154
01:55:31,758 --> 01:55:32,625
for O'Reilly.

3155
01:55:32,692 --> 01:55:34,427
[Wade] Yes, Kyle flying off

3156
01:55:34,494 --> 01:55:35,428
that top turnbuckle,

3157
01:55:35,495 --> 01:55:36,629
exactly how he won

3158
01:55:36,696 --> 01:55:38,398
at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver.

3159
01:55:38,464 --> 01:55:40,466
You talked about that killer instinct,

3160
01:55:40,533 --> 01:55:42,502
trying to summon it up once again,

3161
01:55:42,568 --> 01:55:44,804
but landing hard on that patella.

3162
01:55:44,871 --> 01:55:46,406
Watch Kyle.

3163
01:55:46,472 --> 01:55:47,874
How much damage has been done

3164
01:55:47,941 --> 01:55:50,076
to the body of each of these two men?

3165
01:55:51,644 --> 01:55:54,113
[Vic] What's in the mind O'Reilly?

3166
01:55:54,180 --> 01:55:56,382
Who has had a flurry of offense.

3167
01:55:56,449 --> 01:56:00,720
Oh, a low blow will stop any man.

3168
01:56:00,787 --> 01:56:03,022
[Wade] Nothing the referee can do about it

3169
01:56:03,089 --> 01:56:04,891
in a middle of a steel cage match.

3170
01:56:04,958 --> 01:56:07,493
[Beth] Of course Cole would sink that low.

3171
01:56:07,560 --> 01:56:08,995
-It's all legal, Beth.
-Ugh.

3172
01:56:09,062 --> 01:56:10,029
[Vic] Cole realizing--

3173
01:56:10,096 --> 01:56:11,664
[Wade] That's killer instinct.

3174
01:56:11,731 --> 01:56:13,066
[Vic] This could be Cole's moment.

3175
01:56:13,132 --> 01:56:14,834
Cole now trying to scale

3176
01:56:14,901 --> 01:56:16,069
all the way to the top.

3177
01:56:16,135 --> 01:56:17,904
If both feet hit the floor,

3178
01:56:17,971 --> 01:56:19,605
Adam Cole wins the third fall.

3179
01:56:19,672 --> 01:56:21,274
Kyle running some interference.

3180
01:56:21,341 --> 01:56:22,942
[Wade] Kyle, desperation there,

3181
01:56:23,009 --> 01:56:25,511
clinging on to the ankle of Adam Cole,

3182
01:56:25,578 --> 01:56:26,646
knowing that the match

3183
01:56:26,713 --> 01:56:27,847
was slipping away.

3184
01:56:27,914 --> 01:56:29,649
Now, in the worst place possible

3185
01:56:29,716 --> 01:56:30,550
we're trading.

3186
01:56:30,616 --> 01:56:32,552
[crowd cheering]

3187
01:56:32,618 --> 01:56:33,987
Oh!

3188
01:56:36,222 --> 01:56:37,924
[Vic] For a second time,

3189
01:56:37,991 --> 01:56:40,560
O'Reilly, crashed and burned.

3190
01:56:41,661 --> 01:56:43,096
Cole.

3191
01:56:43,262 --> 01:56:44,897
What?

3192
01:56:45,231 --> 01:56:46,933
Panama!

3193
01:56:47,000 --> 01:56:49,802
Panama sunrise, center of the ring!

3194
01:56:49,969 --> 01:56:51,904
Adding up for Adam Cole.

3195
01:56:51,971 --> 01:56:54,774
The third fall. O'Reilly kicked out.

3196
01:56:54,841 --> 01:56:57,276
[Wade] Yes, what a shocker.

3197
01:56:59,012 --> 01:57:00,613
[Vic] Cole, in disbelief.

3198
01:57:00,680 --> 01:57:02,949
[Wade] Cole just made a huge mistake.

3199
01:57:03,483 --> 01:57:05,151
[Beth] Cole had every opportunity

3200
01:57:05,218 --> 01:57:06,052
to climb the cage,

3201
01:57:06,119 --> 01:57:09,022
but instead wanting to deliver the pain

3202
01:57:09,088 --> 01:57:10,323
to Kyle O'Reilly

3203
01:57:10,390 --> 01:57:12,058
he didn't count on Kyle

3204
01:57:12,125 --> 01:57:13,693
having it in him to kick out.

3205
01:57:13,760 --> 01:57:14,594
[Vic] Certainly.

3206
01:57:14,660 --> 01:57:16,496
That goes back to the killer instinct.

3207
01:57:19,399 --> 01:57:20,833
Are those handcuffs?

3208
01:57:22,201 --> 01:57:23,903
[Wade] The man came prepared.

3209
01:57:23,970 --> 01:57:25,938
[Vic] What's Cole doing with handcuffs?

3210
01:57:27,073 --> 01:57:28,508
[Wade] Oh, this is brilliant.

3211
01:57:28,574 --> 01:57:29,942
Come on.

3212
01:57:30,009 --> 01:57:31,044
Come on. Go.

3213
01:57:31,110 --> 01:57:33,479
[Wade] Attached Kyle to the ropes

3214
01:57:33,546 --> 01:57:34,414
with handcuffs

3215
01:57:34,480 --> 01:57:37,216
and take all the time in the world

3216
01:57:37,283 --> 01:57:39,619
to beat the hell out of him

3217
01:57:39,685 --> 01:57:41,187
or escape.

3218
01:57:41,254 --> 01:57:42,722
You choose, Adam Cole.

3219
01:57:45,691 --> 01:57:48,795
You're nothing, do you hear me?

3220
01:57:50,329 --> 01:57:55,201
[Vic] Oh, Cole is absolutely in control.

3221
01:57:55,268 --> 01:57:57,670
Do you hear me? Get up, Kyle.

3222
01:57:57,737 --> 01:57:59,038
Get up.

3223
01:57:59,105 --> 01:58:02,675
[Vic] O'Reilly, absolutely defenseless.

3224
01:58:03,976 --> 01:58:06,979
I was the king of the undisputed era.

3225
01:58:07,046 --> 01:58:08,414
Me.

3226
01:58:08,481 --> 01:58:10,883
[crowd cheering]

3227
01:58:12,685 --> 01:58:14,987
[Vic] Oh, wait a minute.

3228
01:58:15,054 --> 01:58:16,956
-Heel hook.
-With one arm.

3229
01:58:17,023 --> 01:58:18,524
[Wade] One arm heel hook,

3230
01:58:18,591 --> 01:58:21,160
Using the armpit for extra leverage.

3231
01:58:21,227 --> 01:58:22,462
[Vic] If Kyle can get a submission,

3232
01:58:22,528 --> 01:58:23,863
he will win the third fall

3233
01:58:23,930 --> 01:58:24,764
with one arm.

3234
01:58:24,831 --> 01:58:25,932
Is Cole going to tap?

3235
01:58:25,998 --> 01:58:28,401
Cole taps! [bell rings]

3236
01:58:28,468 --> 01:58:30,837
[crowd cheering]

3237
01:58:30,903 --> 01:58:34,140
[Kyle O'Reilly's music plays]

3238
01:58:34,207 --> 01:58:35,808
[announcer] Here is your winner

3239
01:58:35,875 --> 01:58:37,443
by submission,

3240
01:58:37,510 --> 01:58:41,047
Kyle O'Reilly.

3241
01:58:47,587 --> 01:58:49,956
[Vic] Absolute brutality.

3242
01:58:50,756 --> 01:58:52,458
Two out of three falls.

3243
01:58:52,525 --> 01:58:55,561
In the end, Kyle O'Reilly,

3244
01:58:55,628 --> 01:58:58,865
somehow, someway,

3245
01:58:58,931 --> 01:59:01,601
able to manage a victory

3246
01:59:01,667 --> 01:59:03,269
over Adam Cole.

3247
01:59:04,303 --> 01:59:06,005
Let's go back. Just think

3248
01:59:06,072 --> 01:59:08,274
about some of the action of this matchup.

3249
01:59:08,341 --> 01:59:10,076
It started with a traditional match,

3250
01:59:10,143 --> 01:59:12,345
street fight, steel cage.

3251
01:59:12,411 --> 01:59:15,114
Look at Adam Cole screaming in pain.

3252
01:59:15,181 --> 01:59:17,783
We talked about brutality earlier tonight

3253
01:59:17,850 --> 01:59:19,952
in the NXT UK championship match.

3254
01:59:20,586 --> 01:59:22,922
These two destroyed each other.

3255
01:59:22,989 --> 01:59:24,957
These two pushed each other

3256
01:59:25,024 --> 01:59:27,260
to limits they didn't know they had

3257
01:59:27,326 --> 01:59:28,394
in this matchup.

3258
01:59:28,461 --> 01:59:30,163
[Beth] Right now it's hard to deem

3259
01:59:30,229 --> 01:59:32,598
either one of these men a winner.

3260
01:59:33,199 --> 01:59:34,667
But you're looking at him

3261
01:59:34,734 --> 01:59:37,603
the victor, Kyle O'Reilly,

3262
01:59:37,670 --> 01:59:40,973
has finally put Adam Cole in his place

3263
01:59:41,340 --> 01:59:45,077
in this two out of three falls matchup.

3264
01:59:45,144 --> 01:59:46,812
[Wade] It speaks volumes

3265
01:59:46,879 --> 01:59:49,015
to the never say die attitude

3266
01:59:49,081 --> 01:59:50,183
of Kyle O'Reilly.

3267
01:59:50,249 --> 01:59:51,284
The fact the man

3268
01:59:51,350 --> 01:59:53,686
was reduced to zero movement,

3269
01:59:53,753 --> 01:59:56,689
reduced to the ability to use one arm,

3270
01:59:56,756 --> 01:59:59,125
yet still, ingenious enough

3271
01:59:59,192 --> 02:00:00,326
to pull out a victory.

3272
02:00:00,393 --> 02:00:01,627
[Vic] Let's go back.

3273
02:00:01,694 --> 02:00:02,628
This was the moment

3274
02:00:02,695 --> 02:00:04,163
you called brilliant, Wade,

3275
02:00:04,697 --> 02:00:06,032
on behalf of Adam Cole.

3276
02:00:06,098 --> 02:00:08,568
Cole handcuffing Kyle O'Reilly

3277
02:00:08,634 --> 02:00:10,703
inside the steel cage.

3278
02:00:10,770 --> 02:00:12,939
[Wade] Yes, you almost cannot lose

3279
02:00:13,005 --> 02:00:13,940
from that position.

3280
02:00:14,006 --> 02:00:15,775
In fact, one minute ago

3281
02:00:15,841 --> 02:00:17,610
I would say it would be impossible

3282
02:00:17,677 --> 02:00:18,978
to lose from this position.

3283
02:00:19,045 --> 02:00:21,547
The opponent, completely trapped.

3284
02:00:22,815 --> 02:00:24,650
[Vic] Listen to this superkick.

3285
02:00:24,717 --> 02:00:26,519
I had mentioned, O'Reilly,

3286
02:00:26,586 --> 02:00:28,187
absolutely defenseless,

3287
02:00:28,254 --> 02:00:29,322
but here in the end,

3288
02:00:29,388 --> 02:00:31,524
O'Reilly finding that killer instinct,

3289
02:00:31,591 --> 02:00:32,625
that new gear.

3290
02:00:32,692 --> 02:00:34,260
[Beth] Yes, and Adam Cole

3291
02:00:34,327 --> 02:00:36,228
only has his own ego to blame

3292
02:00:36,295 --> 02:00:37,530
in this situation.

3293
02:00:37,597 --> 02:00:38,998
Could've escaped, but instead,

3294
02:00:39,065 --> 02:00:41,901
found himself trapped and tapping out.

3295
02:00:42,201 --> 02:00:43,903
[bell rings]

3296
02:00:46,572 --> 02:00:48,808
[Vic] Kyle O'Reilly looking back.

3297
02:00:48,874 --> 02:00:51,277
O'Reilly has ended this saga.

3298
02:00:51,344 --> 02:00:54,547
He has gotten the closure he desired,

3299
02:00:54,614 --> 02:00:57,917
and tonight, that's undisputed.

3300
02:00:57,984 --> 02:01:03,422
[crowd cheering]

3301
02:01:07,693 --> 02:01:13,566
[crowd applauding]

3302
02:01:16,502 --> 02:01:18,504
[crowd chanting]

3303
02:01:18,571 --> 02:01:21,240
[man] For the first time in one year,

3304
02:01:21,307 --> 02:01:22,975
one month and one day.

3305
02:01:23,509 --> 02:01:24,910
[Rhea Ripley] I've been waiting
for this moment

3306
02:01:24,977 --> 02:01:26,312
literally my whole life.

3307
02:01:26,779 --> 02:01:28,381
Back in the swing, baby.

3308
02:01:28,447 --> 02:01:29,281
[woman 1] To go from WrestleMania

3309
02:01:29,348 --> 02:01:30,383
with no sound,

3310
02:01:30,449 --> 02:01:31,450
to we have no idea

3311
02:01:31,517 --> 02:01:33,152
what they're going to sound like tonight.

3312
02:01:33,219 --> 02:01:34,320
[man roars]

3313
02:01:34,387 --> 02:01:35,521
You can hear that roar of the crowd.

3314
02:01:35,588 --> 02:01:37,690
It was just so fun out there.

3315
02:01:37,757 --> 02:01:39,592
It's a moment that you want to relive

3316
02:01:39,659 --> 02:01:41,260
over and over again.

3317
02:01:41,327 --> 02:01:42,461
I just felt the moment was so much bigger

3318
02:01:42,528 --> 02:01:44,330
than just being about me.

3319
02:01:44,397 --> 02:01:46,265
[man] The roar of approval from the crowd

3320
02:01:46,332 --> 02:01:48,167
makes all the bumps and bruises worth it.

3321
02:01:48,234 --> 02:01:49,769
[man 3] It's a great moment.

3322
02:01:49,835 --> 02:01:51,304
It was incredible.

3323
02:01:51,370 --> 02:01:52,872
Definitely, one I'll remember, forever.

3324
02:01:52,938 --> 02:01:55,074
[announcer] It's been two amazing nights

3325
02:01:55,141 --> 02:01:56,308
in Tampa Bay.

3326
02:01:57,710 --> 02:02:01,313
Welcome to WrestleMania.

3327
02:02:04,183 --> 02:02:06,652
[crowd cheering]

3328
02:02:06,719 --> 02:02:07,853
Excuse me, Ilja.

3329
02:02:07,920 --> 02:02:10,156
Incredible match tonight against Walter.

3330
02:02:10,222 --> 02:02:13,592
You are the new NXT UK champion.

3331
02:02:22,835 --> 02:02:26,706
The ring general has fallen.

3332
02:02:26,772 --> 02:02:28,974
[crowd applauding]

3333
02:02:29,308 --> 02:02:33,713
Long live the czar.

3334
02:02:36,615 --> 02:02:37,683
Thank you.

3335
02:02:42,888 --> 02:02:45,524
[crowds cheering]

3336
02:02:45,591 --> 02:02:48,794
[in Spanish] Hit Row, pay attention.

3337
02:02:48,961 --> 02:02:49,995
Listen up.

3338
02:02:50,529 --> 02:02:52,264
What's that saying in Spanish?

3339
02:02:52,331 --> 02:02:53,966
You know the one.

3340
02:02:54,200 --> 02:02:55,901
There's a saying in Mexico.

3341
02:02:55,968 --> 02:02:57,603
It's quite popular,

3342
02:02:57,670 --> 02:02:58,704
and it applies

3343
02:02:58,771 --> 02:03:00,806
to our current predicament,

3344
02:03:00,873 --> 02:03:04,610
"He who laughs last, laughs best"

3345
02:03:05,378 --> 02:03:07,813
Swerve, I offered you

3346
02:03:07,880 --> 02:03:12,885
a clean, classy exit to our situation,

3347
02:03:12,952 --> 02:03:14,387
but you wouldn't want it,

3348
02:03:14,920 --> 02:03:17,456
so now, you and your thugs

3349
02:03:17,523 --> 02:03:19,859
will find out there's no one better

3350
02:03:19,925 --> 02:03:21,527
than "Legado del fantasma"

3351
02:03:21,594 --> 02:03:23,262
to escalate things.

3352
02:03:23,863 --> 02:03:25,364
That's right.

3353
02:03:25,431 --> 02:03:26,932
This Tuesday,

3354
02:03:26,999 --> 02:03:28,934
we are going to finish the job.

3355
02:03:29,001 --> 02:03:31,303
-Let's get it!
-Hit Row.

3356
02:03:31,537 --> 02:03:33,572
This Tuesday, you'll find out,

3357
02:03:33,639 --> 02:03:39,078
"he who laughs last, laughs best."

3358
02:03:41,680 --> 02:03:43,949
[Wade] Well, these two groups

3359
02:03:44,016 --> 02:03:45,751
have spent the last few weeks

3360
02:03:45,818 --> 02:03:46,886
crossing the line

3361
02:03:46,952 --> 02:03:49,321
and insulting each other's coaches.

3362
02:03:49,522 --> 02:03:50,723
Well, it comes to a head

3363
02:03:50,790 --> 02:03:53,392
this Tuesday, in six-man tag action,

3364
02:03:53,459 --> 02:03:55,394
live on USA.

3365
02:03:55,461 --> 02:03:57,296
[Beth] Also, we'll have the culmination

3366
02:03:57,363 --> 02:03:59,165
of our NXT breakout tournament.

3367
02:03:59,231 --> 02:04:00,466
Carmelo Hayes

3368
02:04:00,533 --> 02:04:02,001
will be taking on the big man,

3369
02:04:02,067 --> 02:04:03,536
Odyssey Jones, and of course,

3370
02:04:03,602 --> 02:04:05,871
the winner will get an opportunity

3371
02:04:05,938 --> 02:04:07,773
to compete for a title of their choosing.

3372
02:04:07,840 --> 02:04:09,074
Guys, can you imagine

3373
02:04:09,141 --> 02:04:10,509
if the winner of the breakout tournament

3374
02:04:10,576 --> 02:04:12,812
would challenge for NXT championship?

3375
02:04:12,878 --> 02:04:14,814
A match with the NXT championship

3376
02:04:14,880 --> 02:04:17,983
because the time for talk, it's over.

3377
02:04:18,050 --> 02:04:20,920
[Vic] The NXT championship is on the line.

3378
02:04:20,986 --> 02:04:22,988
Samoa Joe has been provoked.

3379
02:04:23,055 --> 02:04:24,757
He returned to NXT.

3380
02:04:24,824 --> 02:04:26,225
Can he put an end

3381
02:04:26,292 --> 02:04:29,328
to the destruction of Karrion Kross?

3382
02:04:30,162 --> 02:04:32,598
[music]

3383
02:04:32,665 --> 02:04:34,166
[Kross] Good evening.

3384
02:04:34,333 --> 02:04:36,001
I have had a lot to say

3385
02:04:36,068 --> 02:04:39,205
for a very, very long time.

3386
02:04:39,271 --> 02:04:41,040
Certain people in this business

3387
02:04:41,106 --> 02:04:42,808
would've never stepped into a ring with me

3388
02:04:42,875 --> 02:04:44,977
if they knew what my true intentions were.

3389
02:04:45,978 --> 02:04:47,313
Everything needed to fall

3390
02:04:47,379 --> 02:04:49,682
into the right place at the right time.

3391
02:04:50,683 --> 02:04:54,320
And that time and place is now.

3392
02:04:54,386 --> 02:04:56,689
TAKEOVER 36 KROSS VS JOE

3393
02:04:59,325 --> 02:05:00,559
I'm not going to deny

3394
02:05:00,626 --> 02:05:03,095
that I enjoy hurting people.

3395
02:05:04,563 --> 02:05:07,933
Someone needed to cause this suffering,

3396
02:05:08,000 --> 02:05:09,435
this chaos.

3397
02:05:09,501 --> 02:05:11,337
[Regal] With the chaos that's going on,

3398
02:05:11,403 --> 02:05:13,639
I don't think I'm capable of giving you

3399
02:05:13,706 --> 02:05:14,573
what you deserve.

3400
02:05:15,341 --> 02:05:17,009
[Joe] That somebody was me.

3401
02:05:17,076 --> 02:05:18,677
[crowd cheering]

3402
02:05:20,179 --> 02:05:22,181
[announcer] Samoa Joe is back.

3403
02:05:22,948 --> 02:05:24,750
[Joe] Many people ask me after the injury

3404
02:05:24,817 --> 02:05:27,419
"Why?" Why are you choosing to come back?

3405
02:05:27,486 --> 02:05:29,154
Coming back is reserved for people

3406
02:05:29,221 --> 02:05:30,222
who think they're gone.

3407
02:05:30,289 --> 02:05:32,024
For me, it's always about

3408
02:05:32,091 --> 02:05:33,325
rebuilding the machine.

3409
02:05:34,226 --> 02:05:36,629
[man] Samoa Joe came back to NXT

3410
02:05:36,695 --> 02:05:38,898
like he's Superman with this red cape,

3411
02:05:38,964 --> 02:05:40,866
like he's here to save the day.

3412
02:05:42,034 --> 02:05:43,636
[man 1] I'd be more than happy

3413
02:05:43,702 --> 02:05:45,804
to ensure that you receive

3414
02:05:45,871 --> 02:05:47,640
the respect that you deserve

3415
02:05:47,706 --> 02:05:49,575
from everybody.

3416
02:05:49,742 --> 02:05:50,743
Part of that job

3417
02:05:50,809 --> 02:05:52,645
deals with slapping people with big mouths

3418
02:05:52,711 --> 02:05:53,612
in the mouth.

3419
02:05:53,679 --> 02:05:55,314
Unfortunately, Karrion Kross,

3420
02:05:55,381 --> 02:05:57,116
he has a really big mouth,

3421
02:05:57,182 --> 02:05:58,784
and he has a championship.

3422
02:05:58,851 --> 02:06:00,753
You really buy that --?

3423
02:06:01,287 --> 02:06:03,789
Do you at all have any idea

3424
02:06:03,856 --> 02:06:06,158
who Samoa Joe really is?

3425
02:06:06,592 --> 02:06:08,594
He's not that different from me.

3426
02:06:09,261 --> 02:06:11,196
He likes to hurt people,

3427
02:06:11,263 --> 02:06:13,232
and there ain't nothing wrong with that.

3428
02:06:13,299 --> 02:06:15,067
[man] This is not what I had in mind

3429
02:06:15,134 --> 02:06:16,602
when me and you agreed

3430
02:06:16,669 --> 02:06:18,571
that you would come back here to NXT.

3431
02:06:18,637 --> 02:06:20,172
The agreement was--

3432
02:06:20,239 --> 02:06:21,307
Unless provoked!

3433
02:06:21,373 --> 02:06:23,108
Unless provoked, Joe.

3434
02:06:23,475 --> 02:06:25,444
[Kross] You can consider me provoked.

3435
02:06:25,511 --> 02:06:26,879
[Joe] Comparing me to Karrion Kross,

3436
02:06:26,946 --> 02:06:28,013
that's comparing a house fire

3437
02:06:28,080 --> 02:06:28,914
to a hurricane.

3438
02:06:28,981 --> 02:06:30,149
Karrion Kross

3439
02:06:30,215 --> 02:06:31,684
is a very dangerous individual.

3440
02:06:31,884 --> 02:06:33,018
I'm just that,

3441
02:06:34,486 --> 02:06:37,189
but much, much more.

3442
02:06:37,256 --> 02:06:38,357
Sure.

3443
02:06:38,424 --> 02:06:39,725
But I resent the fact

3444
02:06:39,792 --> 02:06:41,727
that he's here pretending

3445
02:06:41,794 --> 02:06:43,862
like he wants to change things.

3446
02:06:43,929 --> 02:06:46,565
Samoa Joe just wants to control things.

3447
02:06:47,199 --> 02:06:48,801
[Joe] Reactivate me

3448
02:06:48,867 --> 02:06:51,470
as a part of the active roster.

3449
02:06:51,637 --> 02:06:53,472
[Kross] I knew what he was all about

3450
02:06:53,539 --> 02:06:55,007
when I looked him in the eyes.

3451
02:06:56,108 --> 02:06:59,244
Just another opportunist.

3452
02:06:59,311 --> 02:07:00,346
With this paper,

3453
02:07:00,412 --> 02:07:01,914
you will make official,

3454
02:07:01,981 --> 02:07:05,050
Samoa Joe versus Karrion Kross

3455
02:07:05,117 --> 02:07:06,919
for the NXT championship.

3456
02:07:06,986 --> 02:07:08,320
[Kross] Joe's getting

3457
02:07:08,387 --> 02:07:10,923
what he always wanted, a second chance.

3458
02:07:11,190 --> 02:07:13,158
[Joe] This is not about the championship.

3459
02:07:13,225 --> 02:07:14,793
I'm there to -- him up.

3460
02:07:14,860 --> 02:07:16,996
[announcer] At TakeOver 36.

3461
02:07:18,430 --> 02:07:21,600
[Kross] Karrion Kross versus Samoa Joe.

3462
02:07:22,334 --> 02:07:24,603
It is my duty to make sure that--

3463
02:07:24,670 --> 02:07:27,206
[announcer] Karrion Kross!

3464
02:07:27,473 --> 02:07:28,941
[Kross] Is going to speak.

3465
02:07:29,875 --> 02:07:34,046
Change occurs by any means necessary.

3466
02:07:34,647 --> 02:07:35,514
Hey, Joe.

3467
02:07:36,615 --> 02:07:38,984
Do you still feel you're in control?

3468
02:07:40,853 --> 02:07:42,154
[Joe screams]

3469
02:07:42,221 --> 02:07:43,122
[Kross] When Joe goes out cold,

3470
02:07:43,188 --> 02:07:46,025
so will the past of NXT,

3471
02:07:46,091 --> 02:07:48,327
because no matter where the time is told,

3472
02:07:48,394 --> 02:07:49,395
in the end

3473
02:07:49,461 --> 02:07:50,796
[Joe] I will stand here.

3474
02:07:50,863 --> 02:07:52,665
[Kross] everybody

3475
02:07:52,731 --> 02:07:53,665
[Joe] NXT!

3476
02:07:53,732 --> 02:07:54,566
[Kross] pays the toll.

3477
02:07:54,633 --> 02:07:56,068
[Joe] Champion.

3478
02:07:57,336 --> 02:08:00,706
[Kross] Tick tock.

3479
02:08:00,873 --> 02:08:03,909

3484
02:08:34,506 --> 02:08:37,076
[Vic] Samoa Joe is back.

3485
02:08:37,142 --> 02:08:38,744
Guys, his first match

3486
02:08:43,115 --> 02:08:45,751
since February of 2020.

3487
02:08:45,818 --> 02:08:48,153
Obviously, CWC has [indistinct].

3488
02:08:48,220 --> 02:08:50,489
[Wade] I speak from personal experience,

3489
02:08:50,556 --> 02:08:52,024
man, how tough it is to be back

3490
02:08:52,091 --> 02:08:52,991
from layoffs.

3491
02:08:53,058 --> 02:08:54,159
I broke my arm 2012,

3492
02:08:54,226 --> 02:08:56,028
spent six months on the shelf.

3493
02:08:56,095 --> 02:08:57,429
After returning,

3494
02:08:57,496 --> 02:08:59,465
I still needed another two months

3495
02:08:59,531 --> 02:09:00,833
to lose the ring rust

3496
02:09:00,899 --> 02:09:02,534
and regain my confidence.

3497
02:09:02,601 --> 02:09:05,838
Samoa Joe needs a running start tonight

3498
02:09:06,238 --> 02:09:07,906
against Karrion Kross.

3499
02:09:07,973 --> 02:09:09,608
I just don't know if that's possible.

in the neighborhood.

3507
02:09:23,789 --> 02:09:25,257
[Beth] Talking about pressure,

3508
02:09:25,324 --> 02:09:26,391
how about closing out

3509
02:09:26,458 --> 02:09:27,559

in the main event of TakeOver 36

3511
02:09:29,928 --> 02:09:32,564
against the most monstrous NXT champion

3512
02:09:32,631 --> 02:09:33,599
we've ever seen?

3513
02:09:33,665 --> 02:09:34,933
This has to be weighing

3514
02:09:35,000 --> 02:09:36,235
in the back of Joe's mind,

3515
02:09:36,301 --> 02:09:37,336
and I know that that

3516
02:09:37,402 --> 02:09:39,371
has been weighing on him heavily.

3517
02:09:39,438 --> 02:09:40,973
[Vic] It's the first appearance in NXT

3518
02:09:41,039 --> 02:09:44,643
since 2017 for Samoa Joe.

3536
02:12:25,604 --> 02:12:31,109
he is the NXT champion, Karrion Kross.

[Vic] This is a title

3541
02:12:50,429 --> 02:12:53,298
about the NXT championship, Samoa Joe,

3542
02:12:53,365 --> 02:12:54,900
looking to become the first ever

3543
02:12:54,967 --> 02:12:57,369
three time NXT champion.

3544
02:12:57,436 --> 02:12:58,570
He's will have to go

3545
02:12:58,637 --> 02:12:59,805
through Karrion Kross,

3546
02:12:59,871 --> 02:13:00,939
a man who's never been pinned

3547
02:13:01,006 --> 02:13:03,175
or submitted here in NXT.

3548
02:13:03,241 --> 02:13:04,977
Kross, who is brought swift [bell rings]

3549
02:13:05,043 --> 02:13:06,678
and decisive destruction.

3550
02:13:06,745 --> 02:13:09,348
And we are set. Here we go.

This is Samoa Joe's

3553
02:13:19,991 --> 02:13:22,027
sixth NXT TakeOver main event.

3554
02:13:22,494 --> 02:13:23,628
Early on, I wonder

3555
02:13:23,695 --> 02:13:25,731
what's the mindset of Samoa Joe?

3556
02:13:26,164 --> 02:13:28,900
[Wade] The mindset has to be the rage

3557
02:13:28,967 --> 02:13:31,203
that he was feeling after being provoked

3558
02:13:31,269 --> 02:13:32,371
by Karrion Kross

3559
02:13:32,437 --> 02:13:34,206
into returning to the ring,

3560
02:13:34,272 --> 02:13:35,607
and of course, perhaps,

3561
02:13:35,674 --> 02:13:38,143
a little nugget of nerves

3562
02:13:38,210 --> 02:13:40,112
with all this time spent out.

3563
02:13:42,547 --> 02:13:45,384
[Vic] "Provoked" is quite the word

3564
02:13:45,450 --> 02:13:46,451
heading into tonight.

3565
02:13:46,518 --> 02:13:47,853
-Let's switch.
-Let's go back.

3566
02:13:47,919 --> 02:13:48,887
[Beth] Joe,

3567
02:13:48,954 --> 02:13:50,789
was put into a position of authority.

3568
02:13:52,657 --> 02:13:54,092
To restore and maintain order,

3569
02:13:54,159 --> 02:13:55,560
but it was Karrion Kross,

3570
02:13:55,627 --> 02:13:57,496
let's be honest, who provoked Joe

3571
02:13:57,562 --> 02:13:59,831
and put his hands on Mr. Regal.

3572
02:14:00,599 --> 02:14:02,501
[Vic] Now, Joe, peppering Kross,

3573
02:14:02,567 --> 02:14:04,202
but Kross now back,

3574
02:14:04,269 --> 02:14:05,370
going right back in

3575
02:14:05,437 --> 02:14:07,005
as Kross goes after Joe

3576
02:14:07,072 --> 02:14:08,840
Kross has never fought

3577
02:14:08,907 --> 02:14:10,208
against anyone like Joe,

3578
02:14:10,275 --> 02:14:11,343
here in NXT.

3579
02:14:11,410 --> 02:14:13,345
Joe now making it big right now.

3580
02:14:13,412 --> 02:14:15,747
[Wade] Well, if there were any nerves

3581
02:14:15,814 --> 02:14:17,015
to start off,

3582
02:14:17,082 --> 02:14:18,884
he's worked those kinks out already.

3583
02:14:18,950 --> 02:14:20,886
[crowd chanting "Joe"]

3584
02:14:23,688 --> 02:14:25,724
[Vic] Samoa Joe, he's thrown hands

3585
02:14:25,791 --> 02:14:28,994
with the likes of John Cena

3586
02:14:29,061 --> 02:14:30,829
Brock Lesnar, Seth Rollins,

3587
02:14:30,896 --> 02:14:32,164
Roman Reigns, AJ Styles.

3588
02:14:32,230 --> 02:14:33,298
The list goes on and on.

3589
02:14:33,365 --> 02:14:35,434
Joe! With an elbow right down

3590
02:14:35,500 --> 02:14:36,802
into the heart of Kross.

3591
02:14:36,868 --> 02:14:39,771
[Wade] Samoa Joe at 100%

3592
02:14:39,838 --> 02:14:41,573
is as dangerous a striker

3593
02:14:41,640 --> 02:14:42,974
as you'll ever find.

3594
02:14:43,141 --> 02:14:45,043
Is this Joe at his best?

3595
02:14:45,210 --> 02:14:47,179
How good is the cardio of Samoa Joe?

3596
02:14:47,245 --> 02:14:48,413
We're about to find out.

3597
02:14:48,480 --> 02:14:49,915
[Vic] Kross answering back.

3598
02:14:50,849 --> 02:14:51,917
Kross looking around,

3599
02:14:51,983 --> 02:14:53,018
trying to pick up some steam,

3600
02:14:53,085 --> 02:14:55,487
some momentum, gets caught by Joe.

3601
02:14:55,554 --> 02:14:57,289
Joe trying to put down Kross.

3602
02:14:57,355 --> 02:14:58,757
Joe trying to hold on,

3603
02:14:58,824 --> 02:15:00,525
trying to squeeze Kross.

3604
02:15:00,892 --> 02:15:03,061
[Wade] Slapping into that clutch

3605
02:15:03,128 --> 02:15:04,296
in the early goings.

3606
02:15:04,362 --> 02:15:07,966
The champion just making the top rope.

3607
02:15:08,033 --> 02:15:09,968
-Three, four.
-There's no doubt Kross--

3608
02:15:10,035 --> 02:15:12,103
Wait a minute. Doomsday saito.

3609
02:15:12,437 --> 02:15:14,372
-Joe went high.
-I told you so.

3610
02:15:14,439 --> 02:15:15,407
I told you.

3611
02:15:15,474 --> 02:15:16,975
[Vic] Running right back in,

3612
02:15:17,042 --> 02:15:18,276
forearm at Joe.

3613
02:15:20,579 --> 02:15:22,481
Knocked all the way to the floor.

3614
02:15:22,547 --> 02:15:25,083
[Wade] That is fortunate for Joe.

3615
02:15:25,150 --> 02:15:26,051
Let me tell you,

3616
02:15:26,117 --> 02:15:28,553
doomsday saito suplex

3617
02:15:28,620 --> 02:15:30,255
followed by that forearm smash

3618
02:15:30,322 --> 02:15:31,490
just put away everyone.

3619
02:15:31,556 --> 02:15:33,158
-Two.
-That's it, Joe?

3620
02:15:33,892 --> 02:15:34,860
Is that it?

3621
02:15:36,061 --> 02:15:37,062
[Vic] You hear Kross

3622
02:15:37,129 --> 02:15:39,798
continuing to talk a little bit of trash

3623
02:15:39,865 --> 02:15:40,899
on the outside.

3624
02:15:43,535 --> 02:15:44,469
[Beth] I guarantee you,

3625
02:15:44,536 --> 02:15:46,471
Kross felt embarrassed

3626
02:15:47,272 --> 02:15:48,507
being tossed around

3627
02:15:48,573 --> 02:15:51,042
and clutched by Joe

3628
02:15:51,109 --> 02:15:52,377
that early in the goings.

3629
02:15:52,444 --> 02:15:53,845
[Vic] We saw how these barricades

3630
02:15:53,912 --> 02:15:55,147
didn't hold up very well

3631
02:15:55,213 --> 02:15:57,349
this past Tuesday on NXT,

3632
02:15:57,415 --> 02:15:59,618
as Kross hoists Samoa Joe

3633
02:15:59,684 --> 02:16:00,519
back into the ring.

3634
02:16:00,585 --> 02:16:02,787
[Wade] That's a lot of mass and power

3635
02:16:02,854 --> 02:16:04,623
getting thrown towards those barricades.

3636
02:16:04,689 --> 02:16:06,291
Samoa Joe, back in the ring

3637
02:16:06,358 --> 02:16:07,993
struggling to get to his feet.

3638
02:16:08,059 --> 02:16:09,294
He might be redundant now.

3639
02:16:09,661 --> 02:16:10,595
[Vic] When we both talked

3640
02:16:10,662 --> 02:16:12,063
about Samoa Joe

3641
02:16:12,130 --> 02:16:13,465
and having his first match

3642
02:16:13,532 --> 02:16:15,100
since February 2020--

3643
02:16:15,166 --> 02:16:17,469
It's Karrion Kross taking a right to Joe.

3644
02:16:18,937 --> 02:16:21,139
I asked you, Wade, when it comes to Kross,

3645
02:16:21,206 --> 02:16:22,440
whose ruthlessness

3646
02:16:22,507 --> 02:16:24,743
can it be matched tonight by Joe?

3647
02:16:24,809 --> 02:16:26,678
[Wade] Well, one thing along the way

3648
02:16:26,745 --> 02:16:29,114
is not going to change about Samoa Joe

3649
02:16:29,181 --> 02:16:31,616
is the mentality from his career.

3650
02:16:31,683 --> 02:16:32,551
I can tell you

3651
02:16:32,617 --> 02:16:34,186
that if there is anybody out there

3652
02:16:34,252 --> 02:16:36,621
who will be as merciless as Karrion Kross

3653
02:16:36,688 --> 02:16:40,258
it is an angry and motivated Samoa Joe

3654
02:16:40,325 --> 02:16:42,294
that we have in the ring right now.

3655
02:16:42,360 --> 02:16:44,162
[Vic] I know Kross could be looking

3656
02:16:44,229 --> 02:16:45,764
for another doomsday saito.

3657
02:16:45,830 --> 02:16:46,965
I don't know if he got all of it.

3658
02:16:47,032 --> 02:16:48,266
Into the cover, hook of the leg,

3659
02:16:48,333 --> 02:16:49,434
center of the ring.

3660
02:16:49,501 --> 02:16:51,503
Joe kicks out at two.

3661
02:16:52,003 --> 02:16:53,939
Now right into an ankle lock,

3662
02:16:54,005 --> 02:16:55,574
goes Karrion Kross.

3663
02:16:55,640 --> 02:16:57,275
Kross applying the pressure now

3664
02:16:57,342 --> 02:16:58,310
to Samoa Joe.

3665
02:16:58,376 --> 02:17:00,412
[Wade] A wave of aggression

3666
02:17:00,478 --> 02:17:02,614
washing over Samoa Joe.

3667
02:17:02,681 --> 02:17:04,783
Samoa Joe feeling real hurt in there

3668
02:17:04,849 --> 02:17:05,684
right now.

3669
02:17:05,750 --> 02:17:06,585
[Beth] No matter

3670
02:17:06,651 --> 02:17:08,753
the size of athlete that you are,

3671
02:17:08,820 --> 02:17:10,889
having your ankle torqued like that

3672
02:17:10,956 --> 02:17:11,890
is agony.

3673
02:17:11,957 --> 02:17:13,291
[Vic] Joe able to roll through,

3674
02:17:13,358 --> 02:17:15,527
Kross, all the way to the outside.

3675
02:17:15,594 --> 02:17:18,129
Now, Joe, turning right around

3676
02:17:18,196 --> 02:17:19,631
and Kross already back to his feet

3677
02:17:19,698 --> 02:17:20,865
with a forearm under the challenger.

3678
02:17:20,932 --> 02:17:23,768
Oh, and Joe able to catch Kross

3679
02:17:23,835 --> 02:17:24,703
for a moment.

3680
02:17:25,637 --> 02:17:26,605
Joe.

3681
02:17:26,671 --> 02:17:28,073
[Wade] Rampaging Samoa Joe.

3682
02:17:28,139 --> 02:17:29,474
[Vic] Taking it to the air.

3683
02:17:29,541 --> 02:17:31,042
[crowd cheering]

3684
02:17:31,109 --> 02:17:31,977
Let's go, Joe.

3685
02:17:32,043 --> 02:17:34,179
[Vic] Almost went right through Kross.

3686
02:17:34,245 --> 02:17:35,246
[crowd chanting "Joe"]

3687
02:17:35,313 --> 02:17:37,916
There you can see Joe wincing,

3688
02:17:37,983 --> 02:17:40,585
all the damage that's already done to Joe

3689
02:17:40,652 --> 02:17:41,987
early on in this matchup.

3690
02:17:42,053 --> 02:17:43,688
-Three.
-Referee is up to three.

3691
02:17:43,755 --> 02:17:44,723
[Vic] Championship

3692
02:17:44,789 --> 02:17:46,224
can't be decided on the outside.

3693
02:17:46,291 --> 02:17:48,193
Joe's got to get Kross into the ring.

3694
02:17:48,260 --> 02:17:49,661
Five.

3695
02:17:49,728 --> 02:17:51,262
[Vic] Of course, Joe knows it.

3696
02:17:51,329 --> 02:17:52,764
-Six.
-First ever two time

3697
02:17:52,831 --> 02:17:54,633
[Vic] NXT champion here on this brand.

3698
02:17:54,699 --> 02:17:57,402
Former two time American champion as well.

3699
02:17:57,469 --> 02:17:59,671
[Beth] There is something to be said

3700
02:17:59,738 --> 02:18:02,140
for being an in-ring veteran.

3701
02:18:02,207 --> 02:18:05,677
Understanding how to maximize your energy

3702
02:18:05,744 --> 02:18:06,645
in the ring,

3703
02:18:06,711 --> 02:18:08,179
using it to your advantage.

3704
02:18:08,947 --> 02:18:10,348
[Vic] With Kross now.

3705
02:18:10,849 --> 02:18:12,417
another big clothesline.

3706
02:18:12,484 --> 02:18:14,452
[Wade] Unleashing fury of his own.

3707
02:18:14,519 --> 02:18:16,087
-Oh, it's Kross.
-Yes.

3708
02:18:16,154 --> 02:18:18,657
[Vic] Tossing over 280 pounds

3709
02:18:18,723 --> 02:18:20,191
into the cover and again,

3710
02:18:20,258 --> 02:18:22,027
Joe, just kicked out

3711
02:18:22,093 --> 02:18:24,095
as this championship match continues.

3712
02:18:24,162 --> 02:18:27,132
To not look across the face of Kross

3713
02:18:27,198 --> 02:18:29,034
a look we've not seen too often.

3714
02:18:29,100 --> 02:18:31,303
Joe knew coming into tonight

3715
02:18:31,369 --> 02:18:33,371
that Kross presented a unique challenge

3716
02:18:33,438 --> 02:18:35,607
unlike anything he even has seen.

3717
02:18:35,674 --> 02:18:37,442
[Wade] Kross has been in there

3718
02:18:37,509 --> 02:18:39,044
with many different superstars

3719
02:18:39,110 --> 02:18:40,011
over the years.

3720
02:18:40,078 --> 02:18:41,780
Rarely have they ever had

3721
02:18:41,846 --> 02:18:44,816
the match of a Samoa Joe, but some--

3722
02:18:44,883 --> 02:18:46,317
Whoa.

3723
02:18:46,384 --> 02:18:48,520
[Vic] Kross had Samoa Joe scouted,

3724
02:18:48,586 --> 02:18:49,921
able to roll through, charges in.

3725
02:18:49,988 --> 02:18:51,356
Big time powerslam.

3726
02:18:51,556 --> 02:18:52,457
Joe into the cover.

3727
02:18:52,524 --> 02:18:54,559
Do we have a new NXT champion?

3728
02:18:54,626 --> 02:18:56,761
Kross kicks out at two.

3729
02:18:56,828 --> 02:18:58,563
[Wade] He's pulling every trick

3730
02:18:58,630 --> 02:18:59,497
out of the bag

3731
02:18:59,564 --> 02:19:02,100
in order to get himself a little space

3732
02:19:02,167 --> 02:19:03,368
from the champion here.

3733
02:19:03,435 --> 02:19:05,036
Wipe away those cobwebs.

3734
02:19:05,103 --> 02:19:07,405
[crowd cheering]

3735
02:19:12,143 --> 02:19:13,578
[Vic] Joe looking around

3736
02:19:13,645 --> 02:19:16,414
feeding off the Capitol Wrestling Center.

3737
02:19:16,481 --> 02:19:18,917
Now, it's Samoa Joe in control,

3738
02:19:18,983 --> 02:19:20,952
powerbomb connects center of the ring.

3739
02:19:21,019 --> 02:19:22,020
Shoulders are down,

3740
02:19:22,087 --> 02:19:23,388
into the cover, kick out.

3741
02:19:23,455 --> 02:19:25,357
Joe holding on, into the single leg,

3742
02:19:25,423 --> 02:19:27,192
nice transition into the crossface.

3743
02:19:27,258 --> 02:19:29,661
[Wade] STF in the center of the ring,

3744
02:19:29,728 --> 02:19:31,863
the Samoan submission machine

3745
02:19:31,930 --> 02:19:34,566
capitalizing on a rare mistake

3746
02:19:34,632 --> 02:19:36,201
from the champ Kross.

3747
02:19:36,267 --> 02:19:38,737
[Beth] The big musculature of Kross

3748
02:19:38,803 --> 02:19:40,705
being stretched to the limit here.

3749
02:19:40,772 --> 02:19:42,040
Awkward torque on the neck,

3750
02:19:42,107 --> 02:19:43,842
and Joe transitioning once again.

3751
02:19:43,908 --> 02:19:45,110
[Vic] Transitioning now

3752
02:19:45,176 --> 02:19:46,778
right underneath the orbital bone,

3753
02:19:46,845 --> 02:19:48,012
into the eye.

3754
02:19:48,079 --> 02:19:49,681
Samoa Joe putting damage.

3755
02:19:49,748 --> 02:19:51,149
Is Kross going to tap?

3756
02:19:51,216 --> 02:19:52,517
-No.
-Come on, Kross.

3757
02:19:52,584 --> 02:19:54,052
-No.
-Alright.

3758
02:19:54,319 --> 02:19:55,453
Is Kross going to submit?

3759
02:19:55,520 --> 02:19:57,422
Samoa Joe trying to hold on.

3760
02:19:57,489 --> 02:19:58,656
Kross a long away,

3761
02:19:58,723 --> 02:20:01,292
trying to wiggle, trying to scratch,

3762
02:20:01,359 --> 02:20:02,427
trying to claw,

3763
02:20:02,494 --> 02:20:03,862
reaching out with his long frame,

3764
02:20:03,928 --> 02:20:06,731
and just by the hair of his toe

3765
02:20:06,798 --> 02:20:07,899
breaks the hold.

3766
02:20:07,966 --> 02:20:09,334
[Wade] There is a lot of power

3767
02:20:09,401 --> 02:20:12,003
in the body of Karrion Kross,

3768
02:20:12,070 --> 02:20:14,339
and Samoa Joe finding that out firsthand.

3769
02:20:14,405 --> 02:20:16,241
Normally, Joe gets someone stuck

3770
02:20:16,307 --> 02:20:18,042
center of the ring into submission,

3771
02:20:18,109 --> 02:20:19,277
they are going nowhere.

3772
02:20:19,344 --> 02:20:20,378
It's a little different though

3773
02:20:20,445 --> 02:20:21,379
with Karrion Kross.

3774
02:20:21,446 --> 02:20:22,547
[Vic] As this match began,

3775
02:20:22,614 --> 02:20:24,048
we were wondering about Joe

3776
02:20:24,115 --> 02:20:25,283
and the time off as--

3777
02:20:25,350 --> 02:20:26,384
Kross sidesteps,

3778
02:20:26,451 --> 02:20:28,153
Joe comes back in, foot across the face

3779
02:20:28,219 --> 02:20:30,922
and one more time, Kross back in control.

3780
02:20:31,756 --> 02:20:33,892
And now Kross trying to tie up Joe.

3781
02:20:33,958 --> 02:20:35,593
Oh, vicious knee.

3782
02:20:35,660 --> 02:20:38,196
We started to wonder as Joe drops,

3783
02:20:38,263 --> 02:20:39,564
Kross covers,

3784
02:20:39,631 --> 02:20:41,566
and Joe kicks out at two and a half.

3785
02:20:41,633 --> 02:20:43,935
Can Joe go strike-for-strike with Kross?

3786
02:20:44,002 --> 02:20:45,670
As now Kross fully mounted.

3787
02:20:45,737 --> 02:20:46,704
[Wade] So far,

3788
02:20:46,771 --> 02:20:50,208
he certainly has done strike-for-strike,

3789
02:20:50,275 --> 02:20:51,943
but it might be good night here

3790
02:20:52,010 --> 02:20:53,044
for Samoa Joe.

3791
02:20:53,111 --> 02:20:54,979
He landed hard off that last hit.

3792
02:20:55,246 --> 02:20:56,781
[Beth] Joe doing the best he can

3793
02:20:56,848 --> 02:20:57,749
to put up the defense,

3794
02:20:57,816 --> 02:21:01,219
but Kross in total control right now.

3795
02:21:02,053 --> 02:21:04,456
[Vic] Stamp on the fingers of Joe.

3796
02:21:05,089 --> 02:21:10,395
Kross, almost just basking

3797
02:21:10,462 --> 02:21:12,464
in the destruction of Samoa Joe.

3798
02:21:12,530 --> 02:21:13,598
Off the DDT,

3799
02:21:13,665 --> 02:21:15,433
into another cover goes Kross,

3800
02:21:15,500 --> 02:21:18,770
and one more time, Samoa Joe fights out,

3801
02:21:18,837 --> 02:21:20,538
but for how much longer, Beth?

3802
02:21:20,605 --> 02:21:21,473
How much longer?

3803
02:21:21,539 --> 02:21:22,774
[Beth] Time is not the friend

3804
02:21:22,841 --> 02:21:24,909
of either of these big competitors.

3805
02:21:24,976 --> 02:21:26,611
The longer this match goes,

3806
02:21:26,678 --> 02:21:28,179
the deeper and more challenging

3807
02:21:28,246 --> 02:21:29,347
the cardio becomes.

3808
02:21:29,414 --> 02:21:31,850
[crowd cheering]

3809
02:21:31,916 --> 02:21:33,918
Come on, big bad Joe.

3810
02:21:34,819 --> 02:21:36,488
You want control?

3811
02:21:36,554 --> 02:21:38,289
You have to fight me for it.

3812
02:21:39,324 --> 02:21:40,959
[Vic] Talk about control.

3813
02:21:41,025 --> 02:21:42,560
Talk about being provoked.

3814
02:21:42,627 --> 02:21:43,962
Karrion Kross right now,

3815
02:21:44,028 --> 02:21:45,930
just applying the pressure

3816
02:21:45,997 --> 02:21:47,065
to the challenger.

3817
02:21:50,235 --> 02:21:52,070
Kross building up steam.

3818
02:21:52,136 --> 02:21:53,371
And Samoa Joe.

3819
02:21:53,438 --> 02:21:55,373
Where is Joe getting the energy from?

3820
02:21:55,440 --> 02:21:56,875
Belly-to-belly.

3821
02:21:56,941 --> 02:22:00,845
[Wade] Beautiful execution there from Joe,

3822
02:22:00,912 --> 02:22:03,481
that muscle memory kicking in, perhaps,

3823
02:22:03,548 --> 02:22:05,617
discovering his second wind here.

3824
02:22:09,153 --> 02:22:11,222
[Vic] An era came to an end tonight,

3825
02:22:11,289 --> 02:22:13,525
but the winner of this will lead NXT

3826
02:22:13,591 --> 02:22:14,592
into its next chapter.

3827
02:22:14,659 --> 02:22:16,461
Take a look at Samoa Joe,

3828
02:22:16,528 --> 02:22:17,695
out of nowhere,

3829
02:22:17,762 --> 02:22:18,930
delivering this overhead

3830
02:22:18,997 --> 02:22:20,231
belly-to-belly toss.

3831
02:22:20,298 --> 02:22:21,699
Will this now, Beth,

3832
02:22:21,766 --> 02:22:23,568
be the moment that Joe needed

3833
02:22:24,402 --> 02:22:26,070
to get his composure,

3834
02:22:26,704 --> 02:22:28,039
to get back into it?

3835
02:22:28,106 --> 02:22:29,474
[Beth] Absolutely.

3836
02:22:29,541 --> 02:22:31,142
This is a critical moment here

3837
02:22:31,209 --> 02:22:32,911
in the momentum of Samoa Joe,

3838
02:22:32,977 --> 02:22:34,712
and again, putting the blocks up

3839
02:22:34,779 --> 02:22:36,648
to defend against those strikes.

3840
02:22:37,115 --> 02:22:38,550
Ducking, and there's Joe now,

3841
02:22:38,616 --> 02:22:40,685
again, peppering Karrion Kross.

3842
02:22:40,752 --> 02:22:42,320
Joe fighting back, going to the body,

3843
02:22:42,387 --> 02:22:43,488
driving the air out of the lungs.

3844
02:22:43,555 --> 02:22:45,957
Now, a knee strike, Kross swings wildly.

3845
02:22:46,024 --> 02:22:48,626
Comes back in, inverted atomic drop.

3846
02:22:48,693 --> 02:22:50,128
Joe starting to roll now.

3847
02:22:50,194 --> 02:22:52,130
Comes in, big boot across the face.

3848
02:22:52,196 --> 02:22:53,298
Drops the champion.

3849
02:22:53,364 --> 02:22:54,866
Senton, center of the ring.

3850
02:22:54,933 --> 02:22:58,269
Joe, to become a three-time NXT champion,

3851
02:22:58,336 --> 02:23:00,171
and Kross kicks out again at two.

3852
02:23:00,238 --> 02:23:02,273
[Wade] Well, this is what Karrion Kross

3853
02:23:02,340 --> 02:23:03,975
feared most,

3854
02:23:04,042 --> 02:23:06,911
a Samoa Joe motivated

3855
02:23:06,978 --> 02:23:08,379
with a bit between his teeth,

3856
02:23:08,446 --> 02:23:10,515
and now fully in control of the matchup.

3857
02:23:10,582 --> 02:23:12,517
The CWC are loving it.

3858
02:23:12,583 --> 02:23:14,852
[crowd cheering]

3859
02:23:14,919 --> 02:23:16,220
[Vic] Joe looking around.

3860
02:23:16,287 --> 02:23:18,423
He's heard all the talk from Kross,

3861
02:23:18,489 --> 02:23:19,724
and now could be looking

3862
02:23:19,791 --> 02:23:20,925
for the coquina clutch.

3863
02:23:20,992 --> 02:23:22,927
Coquina clutch locked in by Joe,

3864
02:23:24,295 --> 02:23:26,064
trying to put down Kross.

3865
02:23:26,130 --> 02:23:27,065
Kross is fading.

3866
02:23:27,131 --> 02:23:28,366
[Wade] This is the one thing

3867
02:23:28,433 --> 02:23:30,802
Karrion Kross knew he had to avoid.

3868
02:23:30,868 --> 02:23:32,537
[Vic] Look at the champion's knees.

3869
02:23:32,604 --> 02:23:34,005
[Beth] He's in agony,

3870
02:23:34,072 --> 02:23:36,274
but now Joe bringing it to the mat,

3871
02:23:36,341 --> 02:23:37,408
and Kross is stuck.

3872
02:23:37,475 --> 02:23:39,277
-He's locked.
-Can Joe wrap his legs

3873
02:23:39,344 --> 02:23:40,545
around Kross?

3874
02:23:40,612 --> 02:23:43,381
Can Joe squeeze the champion?

3875
02:23:43,448 --> 02:23:45,617
[Wade] The huge body of Kross,

3876
02:23:45,683 --> 02:23:46,884
that is no easy feat.

3877
02:23:46,951 --> 02:23:49,954
Kross refusing to give up right now,

3878
02:23:50,021 --> 02:23:50,855
desperately fighting

3879
02:23:50,922 --> 02:23:52,624
as the blood is draining from his brain,

3880
02:23:52,690 --> 02:23:54,459
but no, reversing out

3881
02:23:54,525 --> 02:23:56,094
into a cross armbreaker.

3882
02:23:56,160 --> 02:23:57,762
[Vic] Of his own right, but no,

3883
02:23:57,829 --> 02:23:59,330
Joe, able to roll through

3884
02:23:59,397 --> 02:24:01,633
Kross could try the Kross jacket.

3885
02:24:01,699 --> 02:24:04,402
Trying to put it into Samoa Joe

3886
02:24:04,469 --> 02:24:06,504
just like we saw him do weeks ago.

3887
02:24:06,571 --> 02:24:09,073
Can Kross put down Joe here tonight?

3888
02:24:09,140 --> 02:24:10,508
Joe is fading.

3889
02:24:10,575 --> 02:24:12,610
[Beth] Joe is fading, the eyes closing.

3890
02:24:12,677 --> 02:24:14,278
He's gasping for breath.

3891
02:24:14,345 --> 02:24:15,413
[Wade] Karrion Kross

3892
02:24:15,480 --> 02:24:16,981
trapped in a clutch of his own,

3893
02:24:17,048 --> 02:24:19,317
as the blood seeping through

3894
02:24:19,384 --> 02:24:20,752
the mouth of Samoa Joe,

3895
02:24:20,818 --> 02:24:23,121
but Samoa Joe fighting back himself.

3896
02:24:24,188 --> 02:24:25,356
[Vic] Joe back to his feet.

3897
02:24:26,057 --> 02:24:27,625
Can Joe break the hold?

3898
02:24:27,692 --> 02:24:29,160
Can Joe break the Kross jacket,

3899
02:24:29,227 --> 02:24:31,129
and Joe, out of desperation,

3900
02:24:31,195 --> 02:24:32,397
pushing back Kross,

3901
02:24:34,599 --> 02:24:37,035
and another forearm to the back.

3902
02:24:38,102 --> 02:24:40,238
[Wade] Hats off to Karrion Kross,

3903
02:24:40,304 --> 02:24:43,207
never once panicking while in the clutch,

3904
02:24:43,274 --> 02:24:45,810
managing to make his way out of there,

3905
02:24:45,877 --> 02:24:48,413
take advantage, and surely now,

3906
02:24:48,479 --> 02:24:50,982
about to put this one to bed for good.

3907
02:24:51,049 --> 02:24:54,952
[Vic] Will the toll be paid by Samoa Joe?

3908
02:24:56,688 --> 02:24:58,256
Kross. Oh, got caught.

3909
02:24:58,322 --> 02:24:59,957
Uranage.

3910
02:25:00,024 --> 02:25:01,559
[crowd cheering]

3911
02:25:01,626 --> 02:25:04,328
Samoa Joe still with some fight,

3912
02:25:04,395 --> 02:25:06,064
still with some grit.

3913
02:25:08,232 --> 02:25:10,034
Back in, caught a knee,

3914
02:25:10,101 --> 02:25:11,169
Kross now.

3915
02:25:11,235 --> 02:25:12,503
Oh.

3916
02:25:12,570 --> 02:25:14,839
[Wade] He kick to the temple of the champ.

3917
02:25:14,906 --> 02:25:17,942
[Indistinct] No way.

3918
02:25:18,509 --> 02:25:20,044
No way.

3919
02:25:20,111 --> 02:25:22,714
[Vic] Oh, Joe, muscle buster.

3920
02:25:23,981 --> 02:25:25,883
Joe into the cover.

3921
02:25:26,617 --> 02:25:29,253
-Hooks the leg.
-One, two, three.

3922
02:25:29,320 --> 02:25:32,390
-We have a new champion. [bell rings]

3923
02:25:32,924 --> 02:25:35,026
[announcer] Here is your winner,

3924
02:25:35,093 --> 02:25:39,097
and new NXT champion,

3925
02:25:39,163 --> 02:25:42,133
Samoa Joe.

3926
02:25:42,200 --> 02:25:44,068
[Vic] Samoa Joe,

3927
02:25:44,135 --> 02:25:49,807
the first ever three-time NXT champion.

3928
02:25:52,076 --> 02:25:54,245
What a moment.

3929
02:25:56,114 --> 02:25:58,783
[Wade] Well, Kross took that man,

3930
02:25:58,850 --> 02:26:01,786
Samoa Joe, to hell and back,

3931
02:26:01,853 --> 02:26:02,954
but ultimately,

3932
02:26:03,020 --> 02:26:05,056
the muscle buster connected,

3933
02:26:05,123 --> 02:26:08,126
and we have a new NXT champion.

3934
02:26:08,192 --> 02:26:09,827
[Beth] A highly physical matchup.

3935
02:26:09,894 --> 02:26:11,195
Throughout this moment,

3936
02:26:11,262 --> 02:26:14,332
you see Joe being released from the hold

3937
02:26:14,398 --> 02:26:16,567
and nailed in the back of the neck.

3938
02:26:16,634 --> 02:26:18,269
We thought it would be lights out

3939
02:26:18,336 --> 02:26:20,805
for Samoa Joe, Karrion Kross saying,

3940
02:26:20,872 --> 02:26:22,073
"time is ticking,"

3941
02:26:22,140 --> 02:26:24,008
but Joe would find that momentum,

3942
02:26:24,075 --> 02:26:25,076
that opening,

3943
02:26:26,043 --> 02:26:28,312
and set up Kross for this.

3944
02:26:28,379 --> 02:26:30,181
[Vic] It would get kicked open even wider

3945
02:26:30,248 --> 02:26:31,549
here in just a moment.

3946
02:26:31,616 --> 02:26:33,518
Joe able to continue to continue

3947
02:26:33,584 --> 02:26:35,887
in this matchup,

3948
02:26:35,953 --> 02:26:37,288
and then take a look

3949
02:26:37,355 --> 02:26:38,723
at the closing moments.

3950
02:26:38,789 --> 02:26:39,757
[Wade] Oh, here we go,

3951
02:26:39,824 --> 02:26:42,326
the muscle buster executed,

3952
02:26:42,393 --> 02:26:43,561
center of the ring.

3953
02:26:43,628 --> 02:26:45,730
There is not a man on planet Earth

3954
02:26:45,797 --> 02:26:48,332
capable of kicking out even,

3955
02:26:48,399 --> 02:26:50,468
it would seem, Karrion Kross.

3956
02:26:56,741 --> 02:27:02,380
[crowd cheering]

3957
02:27:02,880 --> 02:27:04,916
[Vic] The sand has run out,

3958
02:27:04,982 --> 02:27:07,451
the toll indeed has been paid,

3959
02:27:07,518 --> 02:27:09,086
the pieces fall into place

3960
02:27:09,153 --> 02:27:10,988
for history to be made tonight,

3961
02:27:11,055 --> 02:27:13,491
as the next chapter ready to be written

3962
02:27:13,558 --> 02:27:16,627
here in NXT.

3963
02:27:21,299 --> 02:27:22,833
