00:01:03But Sammy's age would not let Cody's arm fall
00:01:09Sammy's got a chance
00:01:14Crossroads
00:01:16And Cody, is he gonna look for one more on Sammy?
00:01:23Oh my God

00:01:28I would never win the WWE Championship
00:01:33A miracle in Riyadh
00:01:36But I stand here tonight
00:01:38In front of my people
00:01:40On a period
00:01:41New undisputed
00:01:44WWE Champion
00:01:49WWE Champion
00:02:03Let's go
00:02:04Let's go
00:02:12Ladies and gentlemen
00:02:14Please welcome
00:02:15The new
00:02:16Undisputed
00:02:19WWE Champion
00:02:25Sami Zayn
00:02:27Sami Zayn
00:02:31Do not against the WWE
00:02:33Do not against the WWE
00:02:33Do not against the WWE
00:02:35Do not against the WWE
00:02:40Ladies and gentlemen
00:02:41You saw it just moments ago
00:02:43The miracle
00:02:44The miracle
00:02:45That this past Saturday
00:02:46That night of champions in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
00:02:50On his 10th slide
00:02:51After a quarter of a century in the business
00:02:54Sammy Zayn
00:02:55Wins his first WWE Championship
00:02:59The culmination of a lifelong dream
00:03:03Before our very eyes in Riyadh
00:03:07A moment that will never be forgotten
00:03:11Especially for Sami Zayn
00:03:30Sami admitted himself
00:03:32He never thought it would happen
00:03:37And he finally climbed to the top of the mountain
00:04:14It seems to me
00:04:17Like a lot of folks out here tonight
00:04:20Came to ride or die
00:04:24With the last real good guy
00:04:35And I just want to say
00:04:37Before I even get started
00:04:38The overwhelming reaction
00:04:40The love that I've gotten
00:04:41Over the last few days
00:04:42Since winning this
00:04:43It's really touched me
00:04:45From the bottom of my heart
00:04:46Thank you
00:04:47I mean that
00:04:48Thank you
00:04:54But
00:04:55The whole thing is really kind of funny
00:04:58Considering for the past six months
00:05:00I've come out here
00:05:01And I've been booed
00:05:03Out of the building
00:05:05Every single time
00:05:09And it's funny because the people booing
00:05:11Were the same people
00:05:13Who three years ago
00:05:14Were dying to see Sami Zayn
00:05:16As the WWE Champion
00:05:19But then they decided
00:05:20But then they decided
00:05:21Oh this guy's never gonna do it
00:05:22They jumped off the bandwagon
00:05:24They turned their backs on me
00:05:27They wanted to boo me
00:05:28But now I have this
00:05:30So I could be petty
00:05:32If I wanted to
00:05:33I could be petty
00:05:35And tell every single one of those people
00:05:37Who turned their backs on me
00:05:39To kiss
00:05:41To kiss
00:05:41My ass
00:05:42But I won't
00:05:49But I won't
00:05:51And you wanna know why?
00:05:54Because I
00:05:55Am a good
00:05:57Guy
00:05:58And that is the same reason
00:06:03Why I'm holding this
00:06:05Because I never changed
00:06:07Everyone told me
00:06:08If you wanna win
00:06:09You have to be a bit more selfish
00:06:11You need to be a bit more cutthroat
00:06:13You need to do some things
00:06:15You don't wanna do
00:06:17And I didn't
00:06:18I won this the way
00:06:20I always said I would win it
00:06:21I did it my way
00:06:23I did it the right way
00:06:31And I could be petty
00:06:33Trust me
00:06:34I could be petty
00:06:34And I could tell
00:06:35Every single one of those people
00:06:37That said
00:06:38Oh
00:06:38He's not championship material
00:06:40He'll never win the big one
00:06:42I could very easily tell
00:06:44Each and every single one of them
00:06:47To kiss
00:06:48My
00:06:49Ass
00:06:57But I won't
00:07:00I won't
00:07:01Because this is a celebration people
00:07:04Huh?
00:07:05Am I right?
00:07:07Am I right?
00:07:12And you know what it is
00:07:13We're celebrating here tonight?
00:07:26You're damn right
00:07:28Sammy
00:07:29We are celebrating me
00:07:31We are celebrating the new WWE Champion
00:07:37We are celebrating the end of the debate
00:07:39Once and for all
00:07:41I forever go down now
00:07:43As one of the all time greats
00:07:47I will forever be known now
00:07:50As Sami Zayn
00:07:52WrestleMania Main Eventer
00:07:55Grand
00:07:56Slam
00:07:57Champion
00:08:00Until the day I die and beyond
00:08:02I will forever be known
00:08:04As a WWE Champion
00:08:09And no amount of booing
00:08:11No amount of hate
00:08:13No amount of noise
00:08:15Will ever
00:08:15Ever
00:08:16Take that away from me
00:08:22Wrestling has more than one
00:08:24Royal Family
00:08:41Last Monday
00:08:43Let's go
00:08:44News
00:08:45Publish
00:08:45There we are
00:08:49Villain
00:08:50représ новый
00:08:50My
00:08:50ancestors
00:08:50We are
00:08:53The crowd is here, about to blow, waiting for me to stop the show.
00:09:00I'm the guy who likes to walk the horse.
00:09:04Whoa!
00:09:11Well, the man who was the WWE champion.
00:09:18Cody Rhodes, pinned by Sami Zayn in the Triple Threat match this past Saturday night.
00:09:26And as for Sami Zayn, Corey Graves, not quite the celebratory speech that I was expecting from the champion.
00:09:34Sami Zayn has more than earned the right to air his grievances.
00:09:38He is now the king's hit here on SmackDown.
00:09:42And I gotta be perfectly honest, seeing Cody make the walk to the ring,
00:09:46without the gold around his waist, feels a little uncomfortable.
00:10:43Oh, Sammy, Cody, so, um,
00:10:54what do you want to talk about?
00:11:01It's very simple. You said something I had forgotten. You reminded me of it. When I won
00:11:08that WWE championship, you were the very first to come into the ring and celebrate with me, so
00:11:15I didn't want to wait in line. I wanted to be the first here, as you put it, during this
00:11:21celebration
00:11:22to tell you, congratulations, champ.
00:11:50Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What, that's it? Hey, hey, hey. Come back here.
00:11:59Come back here a sec, Cody. Come on. Let's not do this, okay? Let's not play this game.
00:12:04For once in your soul, just drop the act for a second, okay? Drop the American Nightmare.
00:12:11Drop the Golden Boy and just be Cody for one second. We both know that's not the only reason
00:12:15you came out here. I have something that you once had. Now it's mine. It's something I know
00:12:26you want. It's something I know you are addicted to. So just be honest with me. For once in
00:12:33your life, Cody. No, no, no. Forget the games. Just come right out and save it. Tell me why
00:12:39you're really out here.
00:12:52You found out Monday night exactly why main event Jey Uso is here on SmackDown. He had marked you in
00:13:01a lot of photos from Roman Reigns during the King of the Ring tournament to win and go on to
00:13:06take
00:13:06the WWE Championship so the bloodline could have all the gold. That didn't happen. Now that
00:13:12Sami Zayn's champion, Jey Uso said he was going to show up here tonight. Tell Sami he wanted a shot
00:13:18at the title.
00:13:18Hey, let's get it.
00:13:29Hey, I'm about to get it.
00:13:34Cody, what up? From Hot Dog. Come on.
00:13:58Hey, I'm not going to run it back. Because it's about my dog Sami Zayn right now. I'm so proud
00:14:05of you, Uso.
00:14:06Uso. Man, you earned that. You deserved that. But you know why I'm here, Uso. Bloodline business.
00:14:25Sami, this your warning shot. I need to bring that gold back to the family.
00:14:36The family? What year is this? The family? Do we not know who each other are? I mean,
00:14:45it's him who's standing here, WWE champion. And since those days, correct me if I'm wrong,
00:14:51you've been world heavyweight champion. So at what point did my friend Jey Uso revert to just running
00:14:58errands for the tribal chief? And besides, we were just talking about my rematch.
00:15:10Oh, were we? Okay. I'm gonna put a stop to this right now. We're not doing this, okay?
00:15:16Jey, no one was happier for you than me. When you won the world championship, I laid back. And Cody,
00:15:23despite what you might think, I never came for you. I never stabbed you in the back. I never gunned
00:15:28for
00:15:28your title. You had your chance. You had your chance. Now it is my time to be WWE champion.
00:15:39What was it that you told me, Cody? As long as I have this, you never will. Well, now it's
00:15:47mine.
00:15:48And Jey, what did you say? You said the WWE championship needs to come back to the family.
00:15:54As far as I'm concerned, it's still in the family.
00:16:00And it's gonna stay on my shoulders. No one's touching this. You understand? No one is touching
00:16:08this. So I say this as a friend. I say this as family. Both of you, stay away from me.
00:16:22Hold on, hold on, Sammy. Sammy, actually, hold on, Sammy, if you don't mind.
00:16:29Now, I know you're aware all this isn't here. You know, he got sent home after his little dust
00:16:33up with Gunther, which means for the first time in a very long time, and it feels pretty
00:16:38damn good, I am the acting general manager of SmackDown. Which is big for you, Sammy, because
00:16:46that means my first order of business is to find you a challenger.
00:16:54With respect, Adam, don't I, as champion, have a little bit of say of who I face at SummerSlam?
00:17:07With respect, Sammy, who said anything about SummerSlam?
00:17:13Look, I get it. If Aldis could bother to show up and do his job, he'd probably give you exactly
00:17:18what you want. But Nick's not here. I am. So we do it my way. And that means you will
00:17:25defend that
00:17:26undisputed WWE championship this Monday on Raw.
00:17:33But it gets better, Sammy. Like I said, you're going to have a challenger, and we're going to have a
00:17:40number one contender after Jey Uso battles Cody Rhodes tonight in Atlantic City.
00:17:56A high-stakes matchup tonight in our main event. Cody and Jey to battle it out to earn a chance
00:18:03at the championship. You heard what Adam Pearce had to say. Nick Aldis is home pending an investigation
00:18:09after he ran into Guttner this past weekend. More on that story a bit later on. Hey everybody,
00:18:14Michael Cole, Corey Graves filling in with Joe Testatore and Wade Barrett tonight. But what a
00:18:19main event we have on tap. No doubt someone will earn the right to head to Monday Night Raw this
00:18:24coming
00:18:24week in Chicago and challenge Sammy Zane for the undisputed WWE championship. Will it be Jey Uso?
00:18:30Will it be Cody Rhodes? Also here tonight, ladies and gentlemen, our broadcast colleague in the back,
00:18:37Kathy Kelly. Thanks so much, guys. Yeah, massive main event coming up tonight on SmackDown. And
00:18:44speaking of development coming out of Night of Champions, I'm here with Charlotte Flair. Charlotte,
00:18:49I was hoping you could set the record straight. Why did you interfere in Jade Cargill's match for
00:18:55that Women's United States Championship? Kathy, Jade got what she deserved. She ruined my opportunity,
00:19:03so I ruined hers. And I'm gonna keep teaching her lessons till she gets the damn picture.
00:19:12Sorry, Kathy.
00:19:15I didn't know you were gonna be at Night of Champions.
00:19:18Lister, you know I'm impulsive. I mean, she injured you. She attacked me. Enough is enough.
00:19:25I get that. But I still wish you told me. I mean, I'm sitting at home watching you pop up
00:19:30on the
00:19:30screen. I mean, you looked great, but still, a heads up would have been nice. Lexi, it wasn't personal.
00:19:37And last week, when I was at home, icing my knees, sitting with my mom and her dog,
00:19:42I saw you on the screen with Tiffany. Look, we both know that I'm stubborn enough to team up with
00:19:49Tiffany for you.
00:20:11You're welcome. Ladies, I will see you out there.
00:20:17Yeah? Yeah, well, not before we see you out there.
00:20:22Right? Right? We'll see you out there because we will be out there.
00:20:27Oh, my God.
00:20:29What could possibly go wrong?
00:20:38The lock is horrible.
00:20:41Oh, my God.
00:20:43You got me back.
00:20:45All hail the queen.
00:21:09The lock is a six-woman tag team match.
00:21:14The lock is scheduled for one fall.
00:21:16Introducing face from the Queen City, Charlotte Flair.
00:21:24Well, the 14-time world champion, Charlotte Flair,
00:21:28teams up with Tiffany Stratton and Chelsea Green,
00:21:30against Jade Cargill and her minions, Maddie Cole.
00:21:34Baddie, next.
00:21:43And their tag team partner, she is the women's United States champion,
00:21:53Tiffany Stratton.
00:21:55Well, Tiffany and Chelsea seem to get along now, but I'm not sure if Charlotte Flair is
00:21:59brought into this Chelsea Green experience.
00:22:02I've said it for a long, long time.
00:22:04Charlotte Flair works best on her own.
00:22:07Can she co-exist or will she be able to get past this challenge?
00:22:11That remains to be seen.
00:22:13Let's see this to see happening.
00:22:14Charlotte Flair is coming.
00:22:39And to the opponents, the team of Meat Shade, B-Fab, and Jade Cargill.
00:22:50These three have not been kind to Charlotte Flair.
00:22:53Let's take you back to two weeks ago.
00:22:54Charlotte, before her semi-final match up in the Queen of the Ring with Lynn Morgan.
00:22:59Backstage, Cargill, E-Chin, B-Fab would lay a beat down on the Queen Charlotte Flair.
00:23:06Yeah, but this past Saturday, Charlotte Flair got a bit of retribution,
00:23:11but she cost Jade Cargill an opportunity to knock off Tiffany Stratton to the United States Championship.
00:23:17Six women tag team match up Charlotte Tiffany and Chelsea against B-Fab,
00:23:22Meechan, and Jade Cargill.
00:23:24That team, Jade Cargill and company, actually knocked off the team of Charlotte and Alexa and Rhea Ripley
00:23:30back at Saturday night's main event in May.
00:23:33Sorry, I was thrown off by Chelsea and Tiffany trying to do their best to Sophie Cunningham to incite some
00:23:38sort of angst before this matchup.
00:23:40And here we go, the United States champion Tiffany Stratton squaring off against the woman she beat at night of
00:23:44champions.
00:23:45Jade Cargill in this matchup again, ladies and gentlemen.
00:23:47Thanks for spending your holiday weekend with us here tonight on Friday night SmackDown.
00:23:53Tiffany Stratton driving Jade toward the corner and a tag made and here comes Meechan.
00:23:57We know Jade Cargill in a very, very bad mood as a result of night of champions.
00:24:03Cargill and company look to take out their frustrations on Stratton and her teammates.
00:24:10Tiffany looking for the Alabama slam.
00:24:12Meechan turns it around, pinning combination and a kick out.
00:24:21Now Meechan has taken over. She's picking up a lot of the traits that Jade Cargill has.
00:24:25I just want to say the alliance formed between Meechan, B-Fab and Jade Cargill has certainly
00:24:30done wonders for the careers of B-Fab and Meechan.
00:24:33They say the rising tide waves have all shipped. That's what we're seeing right in front of us.
00:24:38Covered by B-Fab off the double team and a hook to the leg and a kick out by Stratton.
00:24:43B-Fab has grown leaps and bounds since joining forces with the Storm, Jade Cargill.
00:24:50Dratton will land on her feet, backs up into the corner.
00:24:54Tag was made and the Queen Charlotte Flair is now legal.
00:24:57Charlotte's a 14-time world champion for the cross body.
00:25:02Flair with a boot to Cargill.
00:25:06Now a right hand to Meechan. And B-Fab into the corner.
00:25:11Backs up into Charlotte. Charlotte catches it with a kick.
00:25:15Now B-Fab right under the chin.
00:25:19Boom! And Charlotte...
00:25:23Oh, a kick up. Oh, a fun run in the wrecking pool right now.
00:25:27Taking off all three opponents.
00:25:30Oh, cool! Oh, yeah, baby!
00:25:33A chop, stunning B-Fab driving her to the corner.
00:25:37Oh, cool!
00:25:41Irish whip with a base by B-Fab.
00:25:44Oh, cool!
00:25:46Oh, cool!
00:25:47Charlotte with a boot to the face.
00:25:50Cannonball, Sue Meechan!
00:25:52Come on!
00:25:54You forgot one, Charlotte.
00:25:56Jade Cargill lying in wait delivers a clothesline.
00:25:59Get that money!
00:26:07And before the commercial break,
00:26:09Jade Cargill turned the entire complexion of this match around.
00:26:13And she took out Charlotte Flair at ringside.
00:26:15And now it's been a three-on-one beatdown.
00:26:19What a way to rebound if you're Jade Cargill
00:26:22after a disappointing night of champions to come in here and pick up a win
00:26:25or at least a dominant showing against Charlotte Flair.
00:26:30That'll raise your stock to an all-time idol out of Julio.
00:26:33All the way slammed by Astaire Cargill,
00:26:36who is now mocking Charlotte Flair.
00:26:41I didn't see the mockery.
00:26:42I thought Jade did a fantastic job.
00:26:44And Charlotte is out of harm's right.
00:26:46Jade Cargill face first off the turnbuckle.
00:26:48Tag will be made to B-Fab.
00:26:50Charlotte trying to make it to the corner and make a tag to her team.
00:26:54Like the urgency being shown by B-Fab,
00:26:57knowing how important it is to prevent Charlotte from making this tag.
00:27:00It could be the tie turner her team wants.
00:27:03Charlotte at arm's length away, trying to get to Chelsea.
00:27:09D-rate to the midsection by B-Fab.
00:27:12Smart move.
00:27:13A cheap shot now to Stratton.
00:27:14And that's what the alliance for Jade Cargill is on B-Fab and Meech.
00:27:18And how to be relentless.
00:27:19How to look out for yourself.
00:27:21Stay to hell with everyone else.
00:27:22Both women are down.
00:27:23Opportunity now.
00:27:26Tag.
00:27:26I want to make Charlotte knows where she is.
00:27:28Now she does.
00:27:30Chelsea and Meech are legal.
00:27:33And Chelsea Green like a house of fire.
00:27:47Chelsea face first goes Meech.
00:27:51Salute her, Grace.
00:27:54Now when you know the band and then all of a sudden they fall off.
00:27:57A little Rough Rider action.
00:27:59Cover.
00:28:00B-Fab breaks things up.
00:28:02You were saying.
00:28:05Bang.
00:28:06There's been drop kick.
00:28:08Now Jade Cargill.
00:28:12Super kick by the queen.
00:28:14Oh, and Jade Cargill with a big boot.
00:28:18Chelsea Green now.
00:28:19Jets Cargill outside the ring.
00:28:21That's out for Meech.
00:28:22He should roll up.
00:28:23And a kick out.
00:28:26Green with a slap.
00:28:34Chelsea now.
00:28:35Oh, Meech it.
00:28:36My God.
00:28:38Off that Hurricanrana.
00:28:40I don't know how much damage Chelsea did to herself.
00:28:44But Jade with a puck kick.
00:28:45Chelsea looking for the unpretty her.
00:28:48Jade Cargill in that corner.
00:28:50Went for Jade and Chelsea with a great counter.
00:28:54Right hand drops B-Fab.
00:28:56Yeah!
00:28:56Come on!
00:28:59Jade!
00:29:00Jade it!
00:29:01Yeah!
00:29:02Yeah!
00:29:02Off the distraction.
00:29:04Cargill with the win.
00:29:07Yeah!
00:29:08Here are your winners.
00:29:10The team of B-Fab meeting and Jade Cargill.
00:29:18See the disappointment in the eyes of Charlotte Flair.
00:29:24Tiffany Stratton attempting to come to the aid of Chelsea Green.
00:29:28Who had a fantastic counter once for Jade, who had a fantastic counter once for Jade, dropped B-Fab.
00:29:34But Jade Cargill stayed the course and glanced Ms. Green with Jade in the middle of the ring.
00:29:43And that had to feel good for Jade Cargill after what happened at Night of Champions.
00:29:54Well ladies and gentlemen, this past Saturday at Night of Champions, Sami Zayn won the WWE Championship, defeating Cody Rhodes
00:30:00and Gunther in a triple threat match.
00:30:03Then there was an altercation between Gunther and SmackDown general manager Nick Aldis.
00:30:09You screwed me over in Europe, you screwed me over here, shut up and I'm talking to you.
00:30:14What is it with you, huh?
00:30:15Come on, I talked to him.
00:30:17Hey, hey, don't put your hands on the official.
00:30:19What is it about you?
00:30:20You know what it is?
00:30:21You're jealous.
00:30:22You would love to be in my position.
00:30:24You're f***ing jealous because you have failed.
00:30:27Hey, hey, hey, don't touch me, Gunther.
00:30:29You're miserable.
00:30:30I told you again, don't touch me.
00:30:31What are you going to do, huh?
00:30:32What are you going to do, huh?
00:30:32Get the f*** up of me.
00:30:33Get the f*** up of me.
00:30:35Get your f***ing hands off me.
00:30:36What are you going to do, buddy?
00:30:38Get the f***ing hands off me.
00:30:40Get the f***ing hands off me.
00:30:43Get the f***ing hands off me.
00:30:46Get the f***ing hands off me.
00:30:47Get the f***ing hands off me.
00:30:48And we have an official statement from WWE headquarters on this season in place.
00:30:52Gunther and Nick Aldis were sent home.
00:30:54Aldis has been placed on administrative leave pending further investigation.
00:30:58And as a result, Raw general manager Adam Pearce will be running SmackDown for the time period.
00:31:06The last thing I'm gonna do is argue with you.
00:31:08No, Nick, I'm not arguing, because I'm here doing the job you couldn't get done.
00:31:12Goodbye, Nick.
00:31:13Adam, could you please explain what's going on here to me?
00:31:17I mean, I'm the WWE Champion, for starters, and I'm a SmackDown superstar.
00:31:23I don't belong on law.
00:31:25What, really?
00:31:26Yes.
00:31:26I think the thing you're missing here, Sammy, is I'm giving you a great opportunity.
00:31:30You can show the world that you can be a great undisputed WWE Champion in a great
00:31:33city, on a great show.
00:31:36Listen, if it makes you feel better, maybe I invite some SmackDown superstars.
00:31:39We make it a great super show.
00:31:40But either way, either way, congratulations.
00:31:43I will see you Monday, and it's gonna be great.
00:31:47It's gonna be great, Adam.
00:31:48Just hear me, Adam, Adam.
00:31:59Hey, there he is.
00:32:07Oh, Johnny, there it is, baby, I did it, I did it.
00:32:14Didn't I tell you, Johnny, I did it, I did it.
00:32:16Look, man, I gotta be honest with you.
00:32:19I don't know if I win this without you.
00:32:21I really don't.
00:32:22I mean, when I was hitting my low points over the last few months, I feel like you were
00:32:26an ear for me when I needed someone.
00:32:28You understood me when I needed someone.
00:32:31You're like my rock, man.
00:32:35This is the proof right here, Johnny.
00:32:37You wanna get ahead, you wanna win championships around here, you gotta stay true to yourself.
00:32:43You know what?
00:32:44Candice, I'm actually glad you're here.
00:32:47Really?
00:32:47Yeah, yeah.
00:32:48What?
00:32:48Hey, can you take a photo?
00:32:50Yeah, get a picture of old me and Johnny here, would you?
00:32:53Ha-ha!
00:32:54Go portrait.
00:32:56Portrait.
00:32:57Or landscape's fine.
00:33:00Oh, no, man.
00:33:38The following contest scheduled for one call is for the Triple A Cruiserweight Championship.
00:33:48Introducing first, from E-Catapec, Mexico.
00:33:51He is the Triple A Cruiserweight Champion, Ray Phoenix.
00:34:00This is gonna be a good one, Corey.
00:34:02Fasten your seatbelts and keep your eyes on the skies.
00:34:06The Triple A Cruiserweight Gold is on the line as Phoenix defends against El Ijo Del Bitingo next.
00:34:17Back here on Friday Night SmackDown, a matchup for the Triple A Cruiserweight Championship.
00:34:22El Ijo Del Bitingo, the reigning Triple A Latin American Champion.
00:34:29You're about to catch a glimpse of what Lucha Libre is all about.
00:34:34Phoenix invite Kingo, meeting for the first time here at WWE that they have crossed paths before in Triple A.
00:34:41Both former Triple A Mega Champions.
00:34:43Of course, that title currently held by Dirty Dom Mysterio.
00:34:47What can we expect in this matchup?
00:34:49First, from the challenger by Kingo.
00:34:50The Kingo is willing to do anything and everything to obtain victory.
00:34:54That's been the biggest change in his personality over the past year or so.
00:34:58The Kingo will take shortcuts.
00:35:00The Kingo will break rules.
00:35:01Look at this.
00:35:02Right out of the gate.
00:35:03Shoulders down and a kick out at two by Phoenix.
00:35:05But the Kingo, regardless of his attitude, one of the most spectacular athletes in the game.
00:35:11Case in point.
00:35:13And Phoenix driven into the ropes.
00:35:17Ray Phoenix knows what he's getting into in this matchup tonight.
00:35:20How does he keep the Cruiserweight title?
00:35:22Phoenix has to be careful and has to be fully aware that the Kingo will stop at nothing to take
00:35:27his championship.
00:35:30Look at this.
00:35:32Such unique, unorthodox offense from El hijo del Viquingo.
00:35:36And Ray Phoenix, since capturing the Cruiserweight Championship back at Noche de los Grandes, promised to be.
00:35:42Oh, that's the thing that Ronaldo stole from Viquingo.
00:35:46Oh, Ronaldo did.
00:35:47That's right.
00:35:48Anyway, Phoenix promised upon becoming Cruiserweight Kingpin that he would be a fighting champion.
00:35:55That he would raise the status and the perception of the Cruiserweight gold.
00:35:59What a cross body.
00:36:01And a kick out.
00:36:03Well, Phoenix did just that last week.
00:36:05What a matchup he had with Nathan Fraser.
00:36:07And Phoenix showing no signs of slowing.
00:36:10If we take another look at the unbelievable athleticism of a triple-A world cruiserweight champion.
00:36:18Viquingo sends him into the ropes.
00:36:20Phoenix.
00:36:21Missed with a kick.
00:36:24Off the hand.
00:36:25Catches him.
00:36:26Egg crusher.
00:36:27Blitz.
00:36:28Viquingo.
00:36:29Cover.
00:36:29Almost had him kick at two.
00:36:32Take another look.
00:36:33And in the blink of an eye, Phoenix can turn the tides of any matchup.
00:36:42And it's a matter of seconds before Phoenix takes flight.
00:36:47Oh, and Viquingo.
00:36:48Great move as he catches Phoenix in the apron.
00:36:52Viquingo so cagey.
00:36:54So crafty.
00:36:57Oh-ho.
00:36:57Now right to the back of the head.
00:37:00And ruthless.
00:37:02That's a great way to describe him.
00:37:06Look at this.
00:37:08And Phoenix take it out.
00:37:11Cruiserweight title from Triple-A.
00:37:13Up for grabs.
00:37:19Triple-A Cruiserweight Championship is up for grabs.
00:37:23It is the champion, Ray Phoenix, against the challenger, Viquingo.
00:37:27Ooh.
00:37:27Nobody home.
00:37:28Kick right to the back of the head.
00:37:31Viquingo in a lot of trouble here.
00:37:33Goodbye, Amigo.
00:37:38Phoenix effortlessly, once again, scaling the ropes.
00:37:44What a fog splash.
00:37:46To the center of the ring.
00:37:48Cover.
00:37:49To retain.
00:37:49And a kick out.
00:37:52Take a look at the height and the distance.
00:37:56Covered by the champion.
00:37:58Full extension.
00:37:59Full impact.
00:38:02Phoenix very nearly ended this one.
00:38:04But Viquingo still has a little too much left in the tank.
00:38:09The champion has his sights set on the son of the Viking.
00:38:12Nobody home.
00:38:13Meteora misses.
00:38:14Big kick by Viquingo.
00:38:18Phoenix collapsing into a heap in the bottom turnbuckle.
00:38:21The challenger looking to push the pace.
00:38:23Into the corner.
00:38:25The Meteora.
00:38:26Vicious.
00:38:27Brought by Viquingo.
00:38:28Could be closing in on the Cruiserweight Championship.
00:38:34Oh, he caught him.
00:38:36Oh, he caught him.
00:38:36Roll through.
00:38:37Hunger.
00:38:38And a kick out.
00:38:41So innovative is the challenger.
00:38:44Viquingo got all the kick.
00:38:47Come on, Phoenix.
00:38:52Viquingo may be closing in on the Cruiserweight Championship.
00:38:56Maybe not Ray Phoenix.
00:38:58What a strike.
00:39:06Chops to the ribs.
00:39:08Viquingo recognizing the peril of the situation.
00:39:12Oh, my goodness.
00:39:14What on earth does Viquingo have in store here?
00:39:18Oh, God.
00:39:18From the ring post.
00:39:21Cover for the championship.
00:39:24And a kick out of two and a half.
00:39:28An unbelievable poison run up.
00:39:32From the ropes.
00:39:33It's almost miraculous.
00:39:35Phoenix survived.
00:39:39Indeed it is.
00:39:40For the Triple-A Cruiserweight Championship.
00:39:43The challenger now perched on top of the ring post.
00:39:47Wow.
00:39:49Greenboard 450.
00:39:50Nobody home.
00:39:51Ray Phoenix moved out of harm's way.
00:39:53Oh.
00:39:53Now the D's in the corner.
00:39:54Phoenix.
00:39:56Phoenix.
00:39:56Hooded by Viquingo up.
00:39:58Top rope.
00:39:59Right to the chest.
00:40:01And now Phoenix looking to put him away.
00:40:04Marching around the ring.
00:40:07Mexican muscle buster.
00:40:09Cover.
00:40:11Phoenix retains.
00:40:13Here is your winner.
00:40:16Here is your winner.
00:40:16And still the Triple-A Cruiserweight Champion.
00:40:23Ray Phoenix.
00:40:48And just a reminder.
00:40:50This is the type of action you will find each and every Saturday night.
00:40:53It's Triple-A.
00:41:00It's Triple-A.
00:41:18It's Triple-A.
00:41:23Her celebration would be short-lived.
00:41:26Enter the glamour.
00:41:28Blake Monroe bursting onto the SmackDown scene at Julia's expense.
00:41:33Here's Kathy Kelly.
00:41:35Yeah, thanks so much.
00:41:37I'm standing by with Julia.
00:41:39And Julia, last week you didn't even get the chance to celebrate your win over Kiana James
00:41:44before Blake Monroe attacked you.
00:41:46Do you have a message for Blake?
00:41:49I don't back down from any fight.
00:41:53I put Kiana behind me.
00:41:56If Blake Monroe stops being a coward, I will fight her anytime, anywhere, anywhere.
00:42:07That's rich coming from you, Julia.
00:42:12I mean, it would be just like you to bite the hand that feeds you.
00:42:19Listen, you got lucky.
00:42:22I beat you, Kiana!
00:42:23Oh my god!
00:42:25Kiana!
00:42:28In case you forgot, I'm Blake Monroe, and it's so good to see you again.
00:42:36You know, as fun as that was to watch,
00:42:40let's not forget who's in control here.
00:42:47It's nice to see you too.
00:42:53Blake Monroe again.
00:42:55Well, ladies and gentlemen, coming up next,
00:42:57we'll take a look at what transpired this past Monday
00:43:00between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins.
00:43:08WWE would like to give special thanks to Visit Atlantic City.
00:43:13Atlantic City is the destination for life's greatest celebrations.
00:43:17Take it back to this past Monday.
00:43:19I'll show you what happened surrounding the world heavyweight fight.
00:43:26Hello, my brother.
00:43:27My brother, you are in possession of a title that belongs to me.
00:43:34And yes, my brother, it is time to collect.
00:43:41You're the back of the line.
00:43:43You hadn't done anything of late to earn a shot at the tribal chief.
00:43:49When it comes to you, I am always at the front of the line.
00:43:55You have done it all.
00:43:57You have won every title there is to win.
00:44:01You have main evented every show there is to main event.
00:44:07But there is one thing in your career that you have not been able to do.
00:44:16Beat me.
00:44:20I own you.
00:44:25I have owned you since the day I put a steel chair in your back.
00:44:38I took your main event and you couldn't do a damn thing about it.
00:44:41One, two, three.
00:44:47I sacrificed myself so Cody Rhodes could end your reign of terror.
00:44:59Triple threat match.
00:45:00I hid you in the center of this ring and took your wise man.
00:45:0814 years, you and I have been tied together.
00:45:14What do you want your legacy to be?
00:45:17You're right.
00:45:19I don't want to beat you.
00:45:22I need to beat you.
00:45:26And at SummerSlam, that's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:45:32Two former teammates.
00:45:35Two bitter rivals.
00:45:38It all culminates at SummerSlam.
00:45:45It is now official at the biggest party of the summer in Minnesota.
00:45:51SummerSlam.
00:45:52The tribal chief, Roman Reigns, defends his World Heavyweight Championship
00:45:57against the man who never lost that title, Seth Freakin' Rollins.
00:46:04We're gonna run it, all right?
00:46:08Yeah.
00:46:09What's up, Big Jim?
00:46:10What up, Royce?
00:46:13What's up, bro?
00:46:15You can't tap in with nobody?
00:46:18Let me guess.
00:46:19I guess Roman tells Jacob who his partners is now, huh?
00:46:24Hey, man.
00:46:25Speaking of Roman, we're here because the OTC sent us on a mission to find Solo.
00:46:31Now, can you help us?
00:46:32Do you know where he at?
00:46:33Or do you not know where he at?
00:46:34Because if you don't, we're just gonna handle our family businesses.
00:46:39Family?
00:46:40Blood don't make you family.
00:46:44Loyalty makes you family.
00:46:45I've been your day one for the last 14 years.
00:46:50Right?
00:46:52I've been loyal to you.
00:46:54So guess what?
00:46:56Far as I'm concerned, I'm your family.
00:47:04Not no more.
00:47:06Right, Jacob?
00:47:13Go get to it!
00:47:14Yeah, God!
00:47:30Go get to it!
00:47:32Go get to it!
00:47:34Believe me, go get to it!
00:47:35Go get to it!
00:47:36We awe back there
00:47:38We awe back there
00:48:03Ladies and gentlemen
00:48:04And we welcome the self-proclaimed best man to ever breathe, Lil Yachty, and the United
00:48:14States Champion, Rick Williams.
00:48:22The best man to ever breathe, Michael Cole.
00:48:26You know what a dubious distinction that is.
00:48:28Lil Yachty, my God.
00:48:30Rick Williams, still the United States Champion.
00:48:34After a hell of a battle this past Saturday, a night of champions, the absolute Ricky Sanks.
00:49:00I feel like there's Lil Yachty who's out here dressed like Kim Chi.
00:49:04Gotta get me some of those boots.
00:49:18What?
00:49:20What?
00:49:35What?
00:49:37What?
00:49:39What?
00:49:50What?
00:50:07Oh, this is interesting.
00:50:15I would never recommend interrupting Lil Yachty or Trick Williams.
00:50:22Carmelo Hayes has done just that.
00:50:27The former United States Champion, I guarantee you, Corey, he was watching Trick and Ricky
00:50:33this past Saturday Night of Champions.
00:50:35Carmelo Hayes, a former United States Champion in his own right, his career deeply intertwined
00:50:41with Trick Williams dating all the way back to their tenure in NXT.
00:50:53That's why I like Carmelo.
00:50:55He's never been afraid to ruffle a few feathers.
00:50:56Yeah.
00:50:57I'm at the top.
00:50:58Get respect while I get there.
00:51:00Or furry this week.

00:58:24Reed Bellas in a one-on-one match against Lainey Reed, next.
00:58:32There we see a main event, Jey Uso preparing for battle.
00:58:36Will it be Jey or will it be Cody Rhodes, who heads to Chicago Monday on Raw,
00:58:42to challenge the new WWE Champion, Sami Zayn?
00:58:45Five, five, six, seven, eight, five.
00:58:49Went out for the tag team champions,
00:58:51Bree Bella set for her first one-on-one match in ten years here tonight on SmackDown.
00:59:22And her opponent representing Fatal Influence, Lainey Reed.
00:59:30Lainey Reed set for one-on-one action here tonight, but let's show you what happened last week on Friday
00:59:36Night SmackDown.
00:59:36It was a homecoming in London for Paige versus J.C. Jane.
00:59:40J.C. Jane representing Fatal Influence.
00:59:43It was a matter of time before Fallon Henley and Lainey Reed would get involved.
00:59:47And it would take Paige's attention off of the task at hand, in which J.C. Jane would attempt to
00:59:53capitalize.
00:59:53However, Paige was able to rely on her veteran experience and turn the table back into her own favor.
01:00:01A disappointing night for Fatal Influence.
01:00:04So, Lainey Reed, less than three years since her debut here at WWE, set to go one-on-one with
01:00:11the Hall of Famer, Bree Bella.
01:00:13And what Lainey Reed may lack in experience, she overcompensates for in raw physical ability.
01:00:19To your point, this woman is double tough.
01:00:22But Bree Bella certainly has the experience.
01:00:25Oh, wow! My goodness!
01:00:26What a left hand to the chin of Bree Bella.
01:00:29I don't even know how Bree is still standing.
01:00:31That's the type of shot that'll make you rethink your career path.
01:00:34But Bree Bella explodes out of the corner.
01:00:37And Bree is ticked off.
01:00:40And look at this!
01:00:41Going to separate the shoulder of Lainey Reed.
01:00:44Trying to put this one away early in a kick-out by Reed.
01:00:47What a physical battle!
01:00:51Remember, Lainey Reed following Henley of Fatal Influence,
01:00:54couldn't get the job done against Bree and Paige in a tag match a couple of weeks ago.
01:00:59Nice belly-to-back suplex by Reed.
01:01:07And now Lainey Reed tries to drop the elbow as Bree Bella
01:01:11moves out of harm's way.
01:01:12You can't get overconfident when you're dealing with a veteran,
01:01:15let alone a Hall of Famer like Bree Bella.
01:01:18There isn't much in this game.
01:01:19Bree has an experience!
01:01:21She's gonna have to rely on that experience
01:01:24to get past the physically gifted Lainey Reed.
01:01:28And a great strategy as Bree now has turned her focus
01:01:31on the left arm and shoulder of Lainey Reed.
01:01:34I tell you, that left hand really sent Bree off into a frenzy.
01:01:40Reed was able to weather the storm.
01:01:43You got J.C. Jain, Fallon Henley on the outside, cheerleading.
01:01:49Reed now powering Bree Bella up to the top turnbuckle.
01:01:53Oh!
01:01:54And another fierce left from Reed.
01:01:57My God!
01:01:58I think this woman may have knockout power.
01:02:00Bree Bella hanging in there though.
01:02:02Went out for the tag team champions.
01:02:07Bella with a missile dropkick.
01:02:13And Paige looking to rally Bree.
01:02:16And here come the yes kicks.
01:02:18I'm sure if Miz had his wits about him in Dan Housen's lab,
01:02:21he would be honored.
01:02:22Has somebody checked on him?
01:02:24Then Kit Wilson.
01:02:25Oh!
01:02:27Lady Reed trying to take advantage of the distraction.
01:02:33Bree gonna land on her feet.
01:02:36Down goes Reed.
01:02:40Bella rolled through and now she's looking for the yes lock.
01:02:44The yes lock is in.
01:02:47Will Lady Reed tap out?
01:02:49Come on, lady, huh?
01:02:50She's Fallon Henley trying to get the attention of Bree Bella.
01:02:54As Bree continues to crank in the yes lock.
01:02:58And now Paige gonna get involved.
01:03:03Down goes Henley.
01:03:05J.C. Jain misses wildly.
01:03:06Paige drives her into the ring post.
01:03:09Oh, what a right.
01:03:11Meanwhile, in the ring, the yes lock still being applied.
01:03:14And now Bree Bella has to let it go.
01:03:15To come to the aid.
01:03:17Oh, of her partner.
01:03:18Touch her!
01:03:19Jail influence throwing bombs tonight.
01:03:22And Lady Reed with a runny knee.
01:03:25Takes advantage of the numbers.
01:03:27One, two, three.
01:03:28And Reed is pinned one out for the tag team champions.
01:03:31Here is your winner.
01:03:34Here is your winner.
01:03:35Lainey Reed.
01:03:40What a win for Lainey Reed.
01:03:44Thanks to the assist from Fallon Henley and J.C. Jain.
01:03:52Jail influence.
01:03:54Big win for Reed tonight.
01:04:00That's what we're talking about!
01:04:04We're out of time!
01:04:05The winner.
01:04:06Who is the winner?
01:04:07Our truth.
01:04:08Yes!
01:04:09Yes!
01:04:10Once again, the USA has beat England.
01:04:13Happy birthday, America!
01:04:15USA!

01:05:01Now you tell them that.
01:05:03In English.
01:05:03Look, guys.
01:05:04Aldous isn't here this week.
01:05:06So I don't know when.
01:05:08Titles for title.
01:05:10You're on.
01:05:11Okay?
01:05:11But it's happening on SmackDown.
01:05:13Let's roll.
01:05:15You're gonna lose your mask and your luchador status.
01:05:19Is this it?
01:05:19True!
01:05:20Little Jimmy!
01:05:24How'd you eat the hot dog, man?
01:05:30Coming up next, we'll take a look back at the intense confrontation between Brock Lesnar and Obafemi on Raw this
01:05:40past Monday night.
01:05:48Oba, I want to make sure I heard you right.
01:05:51You did.
01:05:52So Summerslam, you're sure? 100% sure?
01:05:55Yes, I'm sure.
01:05:56It needs to happen and I will be the one to put an injury.
01:06:01Ladies and gentlemen, your 2026 King of the Ring, Obafemi!
01:06:12Now that destiny has played out, she's not finished with me.
01:06:17A choice has to be made.
01:06:25Congratulations.
01:06:26That's a hell of a feat.
01:06:29King of the Ring.
01:06:30Now my apologies, Oba.
01:06:32I have not watched the show.
01:06:34Everybody knows I don't watch the show.
01:06:37I gotta rely on Mr. Heyman over here.
01:06:40Paul tells me that you're really good at calling me names.
01:06:44Like, when I'm not here, you call Brock Lesnar a coward.
01:06:49Brock Lesnar.
01:06:50When I'm not here, you call Brock Lesnar a coward.
01:06:54You've got a pretty big decision to make.
01:06:58Maybe I can hold you all with that.
01:07:00You know what they say.
01:07:05Talk s***.
01:07:07Get hit.
01:07:18Hey!
01:07:20You said I called you names behind your back.
01:07:24Well, guess what?
01:07:26You're in front of me and you're still it.
01:07:29Me and you, one-on-one, Oba Femi versus Brock Lesnar at Summer Slam.
01:07:38I accept, Oba, but here's one condition.
01:07:43Hell in a sound.
01:07:47We finished this.
01:07:49No more games.
01:07:53The match is set.
01:07:56The beast, Brock Lesnar.
01:07:59The king, Oba, Femi.
01:08:01Locked inside the steel structure known as Hell in a Cell at Summer Slam.
01:08:09Yeah.
01:08:09What's happening?
01:08:10We was in the race.
01:08:11We lapped up.
01:08:12Better feelings go.
01:08:16Hey, Cody.
01:08:17Ben.
01:08:18What's up, mate?
01:08:19I didn't get around to it.
01:08:20I apologize.
01:08:21Welcome to SmackDown.
01:08:23Well, Cody, I gotta be honest.
01:08:26One of the main reasons I came to SmackDown was the idea to face a new.
01:08:30But I hoped it was gonna be for the title.
01:08:33So go get it back.
01:08:35It starts tonight.
01:08:36Good luck.
01:08:41Hey, Finn.
01:08:44What's up, Tama?
01:08:46I thought about what you said last week.
01:08:47Oh, yeah?
01:08:49So I went to the elders for guidance on what I should do next.
01:08:54Oh, yeah?
01:08:54What's that got to do with me?
01:09:04I'm closing the books on everything from my past.
01:09:10And you're next.
01:09:12Charlotte's number.
01:09:19All right.
01:09:27All right.
01:09:29Oh, here he is.
01:09:30Yeah, man.

01:11:50with becoming king of the ring so that jay could dethrone the then wwe champion cody rhodes
01:11:57now cody still stands in jay's path but without the gold tonight a lot of history between
01:12:03these two they were once tag team champions together
01:12:08cody and jay
01:12:11the second time in their career they'll go one-on-one in a matchup
01:12:22this could boil down which of these two superstars is able to compartmentalize their relationship
01:12:28better you have to let friendship flip to the back of your mind in fact forget about it
01:12:33all together because your friend is the only thing left standing between you and a shot at
01:12:39the undisputed wwe title there's also a ton of pressure tonight on jay usso remember the world
01:12:44champion in roman reigns dave jay is marking orders in the king of the ring tournament
01:12:48winning this thing she could go on to summer slam to take on the wwe champion so the bloodline can
01:12:53have all the gold well jay lost to obafemi in the king of the ring so another opportunity tonight
01:12:58for jay usso to earn a chance at the wwe title and make roman's wishes come true
01:13:09so cody and jay high stakes matchup in our main event tonight as for cody rhodes how did being
01:13:15pinned by sammy zane in the triple threat affect him mentally heading into this matchup i don't know
01:13:21how badly it affected cody rhodes only that cody has experienced this position before he has been
01:13:26champion and had it taken from him cody understands as well as anybody how to get back on the horse
01:13:31dust
01:13:31yourself off and continue the journey jay usso a former world champion in his own way he knows
01:13:38what's at stake here jay tried to catch cody cody looking for an early crossroads snapmare takedown
01:13:43by jay and a stare off
01:13:51cody how do you put jay away tonight show jay something that perhaps he hasn't seen before jay
01:13:57usso and cody rhodes to your point know one another so well as former tag team championship partner
01:14:03they've seen just about every play in one another's books the fact is cody or jay for that matter has
01:14:09to
01:14:09be the first to show a new look run a different play throw your opponent off guard jay center to
01:14:15the corner and jay usso great performance against oba febby and a losing cause wait a minute cody
01:14:21slipped off the apron and jay usso gonna make a pay down with a suicide dime jay usso has taken
01:14:27over
01:14:33this has been a physical matchup since the get-go cody rhodes jay usso winner goes to raw monday night
01:14:39by sammy zayn the brand new wwe champion
01:14:44here comes the main event jay usso fighting his way back into this thing but cody dropped down with
01:14:50the right hand rhodes who lost the wwe title last saturday night at night of champions
01:15:00and a cody cutter rhodes into the cover and jay usso kicks out at two
01:15:14jay usso needs to figure a way back into this thing i think jay may have tweaked his ankle a
01:15:20bit
01:15:20he's been favoring it here snap bear take down now a samoa drop to cody yeah i agree with you
01:15:25cole
01:15:26it was off of this suicide dive to the outside jay hasn't quite been the same competitor in the moment
01:15:31since and i fully expect cody to have taken notice of that situation the american nightmare laid out
01:15:38here on our announce table his main event jay usso making his way as well and jay usso now runs
01:15:44into
01:15:45a kick by rhodes jay now sent over the announce table into the floor and now cody rhodes cleaning up
01:15:52our announce table here cody understands the assignment this is what it's gonna take no no no no you can't
01:15:57show any mercy when there's a title shot on the line cody rhodes hitting the announce table
01:16:04hard and now main event jay usso vicious in his attack
01:16:15and jay now looking to pull out all the stops usso went for the suicide dive cody caught him with
01:16:20the right hand rose now launching main event into the timekeepers area cody doing everything he can
01:16:30here launching himself off the barricade and down goes usso this fight is spilling out everywhere
01:16:40the official dan engler with his hands full here tonight
01:16:45this is exactly what both cody and jay should have expected neither man letting up both men down
01:16:53this is to determine who's the number one contender for the wwe title
01:17:03the winner of this match heads to monday night raw for a wwe championship opportunity against sammy
01:17:10zane cody rhodes and jay usso in a physical battle here tonight in our main event on friday night
01:17:15smackdown rough landing for cody here comes jay usso splash cover isn't enough cody kicks out
01:17:28take another look at this jay usso soaring through the skies full impact on the usso splash
01:17:36perhaps not the best cover executed by usso otherwise this one may be over the official in
01:17:42this matchup dan engler the man who counted the one two three for sammy zane over cody rhodes this
01:17:48past saturday in the triple threat match cody with a kick now to jay gonna head up to the top
01:17:54rope
01:17:54looking for a massive cody cutter this isn't enough to send in the wall and a kick out by jay
01:18:07why not to get frustrated here hasn't been able to put usso away
01:18:22oh
01:18:23ran into a kick of his own spear jay usso going to chicago no
01:18:34and that's a heartbreaker for main event jay usso delivering a spear the crown of his head right
01:18:42into the rib cage of cody rhodes but the american nightmare kicks out
01:18:50critical point in this matchup
01:18:55hope of these men have put their bodies through hell here tonight all in the name of an opportunity
01:19:03one chance to become undisputed wwe champion for cody rhodes again for jay for the very first time
01:19:12cody rolls out of hearts cody it's a spear cody it's a spear on jay now he's got him where
01:19:17he wants
01:19:18him crossroads by cody cover cody almost had him and a kick out by jay and now cody's got to
01:19:28be
01:19:28questioning himself what do i need to do to put jay away
01:19:35ask those questions later cody keep your foot on the gas pedal
01:19:41rhodes cannot allow doubt to creep into his mind at this juncture cody knows what it means
01:19:47to be in the main event cody knows what it means to be qb1 and now is not the time
01:19:54for an internal
01:19:55crisis not quite sure what cody's planning to do here it looks to me like cody's feeling desperate
01:20:06cody hit it all the way up to the top rope
01:20:11roads with a splash but knees up by jay rolls up cody is it enough cody kicks out at two
01:20:20another near fall high pressure here
01:20:27high risk that backfired on roads jay with the presence of mind to get both knees up
01:20:34they also never know when you're going to get another championship opportunity a world title
01:20:39opportunity
01:20:42one of these men will earn one tonight
01:20:55roads and uso looking to empty their tanks in the middle of the ring that's how valuable
01:21:00and undisputed title opportunity is the chance of immortality
01:21:10cody wants an opportunity to become a four-time champion and now jay uso trying to lock in the
01:21:15sleeve the move that won in the world title at wrestlemania
01:21:23is cody fading nope jay lands on his feet
01:21:33on a roll by uso cody able to turn around at least momentarily now backed up into the corner
01:21:39jay trying to lock it in again
01:21:43jay wanted the sleeper hold look to adjust into it perhaps a dragon sleeper
