00:02:01Puck in the elbow.
00:02:03Heyman on the apron.
00:02:04Screaming at his former best friend.

00:03:07One, two, one!
00:03:11Huck retains the world title.
00:03:18For the first time in almost 29 years,
00:03:21Monday Night Raw emanates from the country of Germany.
00:03:24And for the first time ever, from the City of Arts and Gardens, Dusseldorf.
00:03:30Tonight, we are live at the PSD Bank Dome.
00:03:34Over 11,000 WWE fans are here for Monday Night Raw live on Netflix and presented by DoorDash.
00:03:42A fresh off his grueling win over Broadbreaker last week.
00:03:53The Survivor, the World Heavyweight Champion, CM Punk joins us live.
00:03:58Ladies and gentlemen, Logan Paul.
00:03:59Austin Theory.
00:04:00Bronson Reed and Paul Heyman.
00:04:01The Vision Broadbreaker nowhere to be found after his loss to Punk last week.
00:04:02But tonight, Theory and Reed will team up in tag team action to take on Penta and Dragon
00:04:19lead tonight.
00:04:22He's the newest signee to Monday Night Raw.
00:04:25The exciting high-flying Javon Evans.
00:04:28And tonight, he's in action against Bravo Americano of Los Americanos.
00:04:36Evans' first match as an official member of Monday Night Raw tonight.
00:04:40The phenomenal AJ Styles has taken issue with the way Gunther has conducted himself in the
00:04:47wake of the Ring General's win over the retired John Cena.
00:04:51Well, AJ goes to war tonight against the man now known as the Career Killer.
00:04:57Gunther, he's here live tonight versus AJ Styles, the first time ever on Monday Night Raw.
00:05:04And you are looking live at the PSD Bank Dome in Dusseldorf, Germany.
00:05:24For the first time ever hosting Monday Night Raw, live on Netflix.
00:06:06You ready?
00:06:07All right.
00:06:08All right.
00:06:09Tip Imp anime, Oscar!
00:06:15All right.
00:06:16You ready?
00:06:18I mean, can I do just go?
00:06:24You really need a lot of fun!
00:06:26Talking humans!
00:06:28Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the new WWE Women's Tag Team Champions,
00:06:41Io Sky and Rhea Ripley.
00:06:50Hello again everyone at ringside tonight, I'm Michael Cole joined by Wade Barrett.
00:06:55And Wade, set your eyes on the brand new Women's Tag Team Champions.
00:07:00Yes indeed, freshly clad in some new hardware after defeating their mortal enemies, the Kabuki Warriors last week.
00:07:10Shining, sparkling and this week after you've won gold in WWE, always feels like a honeymoon, a time for celebration.
00:07:20But never forget when you do have gold, Cole, there are threats lurking in every corner.
00:07:25It is a relationship between Rhea Ripley and Io Sky that has just developed over the past number of months.
00:07:33It all started when Io Sky had problems with her former best friends,
00:07:37and Asuka and Kairi Sane and the Kabuki Warriors.
00:07:39Rhea Ripley would come to her aid on a number of occasions and finally able to team up
00:07:44to bring the tag team championships to their team.
00:07:48Yeah, I'd say if you are a woman in the WWE locker room and you need some backup like Io Sky did,
00:07:56there could be no better person to fill that spot than Rhea bloody Ripley.
00:08:02Dooseldov!
00:08:04Dooseldov!
00:08:06Dooseldov!
00:08:20Dooseldov!
00:08:32Dooseldov!
00:08:36Welcome to Monday Night Rio!
00:08:42So for weeks now we've been battling not only physically but mentally with the Kabuki
00:08:54Warriors and we have finally put them in their place.
00:08:59Because I'm proud to tell you all that you are now looking at the new WWE Women's Tag Team Champions!
00:09:12Thank you guys.
00:09:36So Asuka and Kairi have no respect.
00:09:47But me and Rhea beat respect into them because no one is ready for Rhea!
00:10:05And guys, the party, it is just getting started because we are here to lay down a challenge
00:10:14to any tag team that wants to rise up to us.
00:10:20Say no more!
00:10:21Yeah, why wait?
00:10:30Liv Morgan, Roxanne Perez of The Judgment Day.
00:10:35Two former tag jumps in their own right, Michael Cole.
00:10:40Excuse me, excuse me.
00:10:43Hi, Io.
00:10:44Hi, Rhea.
00:10:45Long time no see, buddy.
00:10:50You look good.
00:10:52Well, Roxy and I just wanted to come out to congratulate you guys.
00:10:59Last week you guys won the Women's Tag Team Championships and wow, what a reason to celebrate.
00:11:07So come on guys, let's give another round of applause for Rio!
00:11:12Woo!
00:11:15So cool, it's so cool guys, so cool.
00:11:21But, my only problem is, those still belong to me.
00:11:33I am one half of the greatest Women's Tag Team Champions of all time and I never lost my title.
00:11:40So, we could do things the easy way and you guys can give me my titles back.
00:11:47Or we could do things the hard way and I will take my titles back.
00:11:53Well, not so fast, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria now marching to the ring.
00:12:07And this is interesting Wade, because Lyra Valkyria throughout the week on social media,
00:12:12very upset that she believes her and Bayley have not been taken seriously as a tag team by anyone in WWE.
00:12:21Well, these are two women that have constantly been within touching distance of goal,
00:12:25but haven't quite got over the line.
00:12:27Uh, ding dong!
00:12:30Welcome back Liv Morgan, great to have you.
00:12:34Excuse me while they sing for me real quick.
00:12:37I love you Dusseldorf! Thank you so much!
00:12:57See, I'm very loved here Liv.
00:13:00I'm also very good because we know that you didn't lose the Tag Team Championships,
00:13:06But you know who did?
00:13:09Your little tag partner right there did lose the tag team championships.
00:13:15And if I'm not mistaken, I beat Roxanne just a couple weeks ago on Raw.
00:13:22So I think that if anyone deserves a tag team title opportunity,
00:13:29it's these cool guys right here with their brand new gear.
00:13:35Bayley and Lyra Valkyria, what's about that, Germany?
00:13:44Like I said, Bayley, we're here laying down a challenge for anyone.
00:13:51That's us, Rhea, I got this.
00:13:56Wait a minute.
00:14:05The Kabuki Warriors, the former champs clearly taking that loss incredibly badly.
00:14:14Taking out the tag champs outside the ring and now staring down a ring full of potential challengers for the tag titles.
00:14:23And here we go, the ball's underway.
00:14:26This is exactly what Dusseldorf came here for tonight, a big old scrap in the women's tag division.
00:14:32In the women's tag division.
00:14:34In the women's tag division, Wade, we've talked about for many weeks now, heating up with teams from both Raw and SmackDown, vying for position and an opportunity in the gold.
00:14:42The gold held by these two women picking themselves back up, while the melee in the ring continues.
00:15:01Yeah, Rhea was not going to take that line down after being taken out by the Kabuki Warriors and now the tag team champions running waste.
00:15:13And Rhea and Io standing tall.
00:15:19As all the other teams squabble for second place, it is clear which team runs this tag division.
00:15:29Rhea Ripley and Io Sky, the women's tag team champions.
00:15:34Hey, let's head back to Jackie Redman with a special interview.
00:15:42Cole, thank you so much.
00:15:43I'm here with AJ Styles.
00:15:45AJ, tonight you'll face the man who defeated John Cena in his final match ever at Saturday night's main event, Gunther.
00:15:53AJ, what is it about Gunther that makes this so personal for you?
00:15:58Jackie, you know when I got in this business, I learned pretty quickly that it was about respect.
00:16:03Respect for the ring, respect for your opponent, respect for those who came before you and paved the way.
00:16:09Now, I'm not saying that John Cena and I have been on the same page.
00:16:14But we bonded over that word respect.
00:16:18And week after week, Gunther disrespects John.
00:16:23So last week, I slapped the taste out of his mouth because John couldn't.
00:16:27And Gunther, I'm gonna teach you about respect.
00:16:33I'm gonna teach you that it is a hill worth dying on.
00:16:37In fact, I'm gonna make you tap out.
00:16:44You little bitch.
00:16:48AJ using Gunther's words against him tonight.
00:16:54It's our main event later on on Raw.
00:16:59Wade, you want to get bouncy?
00:17:01Oh, you know me.
00:17:02I love getting bouncy, bouncy.
00:17:05He's gonna bounce out of bars.
00:17:06Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
00:17:14The following podcast is Gisela for one more.
00:17:17The young OG Javon Evans now officially part of the Monday Night Raw roster signing his contract last week.
00:17:40Javon Evans in action next against Bravo Americano live on Netflix.
00:17:47Javon Evans if you have not had an opportunity to see this young man in action.
00:18:08You are in for a treat tonight.
00:18:12Why is he always so happy?
00:18:14Why Cole?
00:18:15So he's 21 years old, he just got signed to a lucrative contract to be a part of the flagship show of WWE Monday Night Raw.
00:18:24Wouldn't you be happy?
00:18:26I know you're the most miserable man on the planet, but I think even that would bring a smile to your face.
00:18:30You know what, he's even making these people in Germany happy.
00:18:34The German people aren't generally happy people, they're like me, they're miserable.
00:18:39This effect is just rubbing off on the good people of Dusseldorf.
00:18:43But you know what, life is going to beat up Javon Evans over time, I promise you.
00:18:53Over the course of several months is slowly going to disappear, trust me on that one Michael.
00:18:58I will see, life grind you down.
00:19:02And Javon Evans got over 11,000 fired up tonight.
00:19:11He's burning off a lot of energy too and he's out of breath now, that might not have been smart.
00:19:15This is more like it.
00:19:26And his opponent, representing Los Americanos,
00:19:33weighted at 175 pounds, Bravo Americano.
00:19:43Well, Rayo didn't have much luck against Javon Evans.
00:19:46Ryo, say it properly Michael Cole, very disrespectful.
00:19:50You're like Gunther you are, it's Ryo, not Rayo.
00:19:55Rayo was Ryo.
00:19:59How many times are you doing this on purpose now? His name's Ryo.
00:20:03He didn't have much, it's like rye whiskey, that's how you remember, your favorite.
00:20:07Ryo, thank you.
00:20:09Didn't have much luck against Javon Evans a couple of weeks back,
00:20:12as Javon was auditioning for a spot on either Monday Night Raw or SmackDown.
00:20:16So Bravo hopes to have a better luck here tonight.
00:20:21I believe it's pronounced Bravo.
00:20:23Oh my God.
00:20:25Joe Test taught me that.
00:20:27He's a fantastic journalist.
00:20:28Oh yeah, he is.
00:20:30He really is.
00:20:35God, there's so much I'd like to say right now.
00:20:37Oh, Grande Americana leading his charges to the ring.
00:20:43This could be a great matchup coming up.
00:20:55Well, ladies and gentlemen, going to be a very interesting week on the WWE Podcast Network.
00:21:01And then,
00:21:02Randy Rhoads invites in Finn Balor for a very eye-opening conversation.
00:21:05Undertaker welcomes one of the creative geniuses of WWE and his long time friend,
00:21:10Bruce Prichard.
00:21:12We are part of the Undertaker's Podcast.
00:21:13Stephanie McMahon welcomes in Bayley.
00:21:17Bayley, I'm sure, has a lot to say after her career here in WWE.
00:21:20And Impulsive Logan Paul welcomes Ken Golden.
00:21:25Well, get this, Michael Cole.
00:21:26Breaking news after what we just saw.
00:21:29We are going to have a number one contenders triple threat match in the women's tag division.
00:21:36Bayley and Lyra take on Liv Morgan, Roxanne Perez, who take on the Kabuki Warriors.
00:21:41That is coming up tonight here on Raw.
00:21:44We got our opportunity.
00:21:47We're so close to becoming tagged.
00:21:50Finn, did you see that? Did you see what we did?
00:21:53See what?
00:21:58What are you doing?
00:22:01Isn't it obvious? I'm playing 2K.
00:22:03I'm not talking about the game. I'm talking about you.
00:22:06Last week, you said you're going to carry the Judgment Day on your back.
00:22:08You said you wanted gold. Was that all talk?
00:22:11The Judgment Day doesn't run Monday Night Raw by sitting around waiting for
00:22:13things to happen.
00:22:14Raquel's not waiting for her title shot.
00:22:16We're not waiting for our title shot.
00:22:17So what are you waiting for?
00:22:20It's time to stop playing games.
00:22:26She's got a point then.
00:22:32Just you watch, girls.
00:22:34Just you watch.
00:22:37Very interesting take by Liv Morgan.
00:22:39Well, you know, former NXT star Javon Evans set for action in moments here on Raw.
00:22:44Big NXT tomorrow night at 8 Eastern, 7 Central on the CW.
00:22:49Obafemi relinquished the NXT Championship last week.
00:22:53What happens to the title now?
00:22:54Find out tomorrow night.
00:22:56So Javon Evans and Bravo go one-on-one here tonight.
00:23:01Bravo, of course, part of Los Americanos.
00:23:05Such a tremendous history with the Los Americanos family.
00:23:09Obviously, just starting out on this journey now is Javon Evans.
00:23:13Tremendous history.
00:23:14What are you talking about?
00:23:15We know nothing about the Americanos.
00:23:18Okay, that sounds like victim blaming because journalists like you,
00:23:22and you do claim to be a journalist, don't write anything about them online.
00:23:26Do your job, Michael Cole.
00:23:28Please, I'm begging you.
00:23:29Okay, I got some background.
00:23:30I understand this is Bravo's first match ever in Europe on television.
00:23:35There you go.
00:23:36His entire history has been in the Americanos contest.
00:23:41The slap to the face of Javon Evans and now the aggressive Bravo on the attack.
00:23:45I mentioned earlier, Rayo was upset by Javon Evans a couple of weeks back.
00:23:54And Bravo would like to pay Evans back here tonight.
00:23:57It's called Beginners' Log.
00:23:58That's what Javon Evans pulled off against Ryo.
00:24:02Let's say it correctly, shall we?
00:24:04But right now, Bravo was giving a little lesson to Mr. Bouncy himself.
00:24:10Javon Evans, and that is unnecessary.
00:24:13Javon returns a slap to Bravo, and now Evans looks to take over.
00:24:19Javon Evans loves to have fun.
00:24:21He's a stud.
00:24:21He's a can't-miss prospect here in WWE.
00:24:25You're looking at a former champion, Wade.
00:24:27I mean, I should say a soon-to-be champion.
00:24:30Well, I'll tell you right now, I've been nothing but impressed with Javon Evans,
00:24:32but this attitude of general happiness that he seems to have is gonna go away very soon in this industry.
00:24:40And Bouncy, Rana.
00:24:41Real quick here in WWE, if you're not careful.
00:24:45From Evans following up with a drop kick.
00:24:48This is all going horribly wrong for the Los Americanos family thus far.
00:24:54And there is a Rayo causing the distraction, and also El Grande Americano with a kick,
00:25:00as Rayo threw the official Jessica Carr.
00:25:03And just like that, Bravo takes control.
00:25:06I understand that El Grande Americano actually has some family in Germany.
00:25:11Sounds like fake news to me, Michael Cole.
00:25:13All of his family are in the Gulf of America, slash Gulf of Mexico, slash whatever we're calling it in this day and age.
00:25:25Ladies and gentlemen, our main event still to come tonight, AJ Styles and Gunther.
00:25:29Styles claims he's gonna make Gunther tap out.
00:25:31Bravo, cover, and a kick out at two by Javon Evans.
00:25:35Bravo really is the backbone of the Americano family.
00:25:39Now, how do you know that?
00:25:40Because I speak to them, I do my job as a broadcast journalist, Michael Cole.
00:25:45I have a great relationship with this trio, by the way.
00:25:47If he's the backbone, what is Rayo then?
00:25:51Well, Rayo is the spark, obviously.
00:25:53Then what is El Grande Americano?
00:25:55The patriarch.
00:25:56See, all research is all in there, Michael Cole.
00:25:58Try doing your job next week, please.
00:26:00It sounds like you're making things up.
00:26:02Nonsense.
00:26:03Bravo now with a headbutt delivered to Evans.
00:26:06This has just been exemplary from Bravo thus far.
00:26:10Cutting down this young man, Javon Evans, who came out of the blocks so hot,
00:26:17but has been pulled down and has completely stalled at this point in the match.
00:26:21Yeah, uber-athletic Javon Evans, been grounded so far by Bravo.
00:26:25And again, nice knee to the face.
00:26:28Evans catches him with the right hand.
00:26:30Nothing bouncy about that, just a good old-fashioned swing.
00:26:33That's a tremendous range on those arms.
00:26:39Evans, reversal now by Bravo.
00:26:42Dunks underneath, and Evans takes Bravo down.
00:26:45And now, the pace starts to pick up a bit.
00:26:47Come on down.
00:26:48Whoa, what a step up in Zagiri.
00:26:50I'll tell you right now, Javon Evans is so inventive, so resourceful in that ring.
00:26:54And once this man takes flight, and I fear he's about to do exactly that, it could be Cartoons!
00:27:00Wow!
00:27:01Javon Evans flying out of the ring to take out Bravo.
00:27:06A little taste of exactly why this man set NXT ablaze with his skill set.
00:27:11And why Adam Pearce was so quick to get that signature.
00:27:15I know for a fact, Nick Aldridge was trying on SmackDown.
00:27:18Up the top rope, has to go up over the top of Bravo.
00:27:22Evans with that runny knee, caught Bravo quickly into the cover.
00:27:26Hook of the leg, is it enough, and a kick out by Bravo.
00:27:30Take another look at some of this Javon Evans offense.
00:27:33First of all, this dive over the top rope.
00:27:36What a bullseye, followed up by this knee right to the jaw.
00:27:40And Bravo almost getting the three count.
00:27:43And Bravo, at this point, really living dangerously.
00:27:46Yeah, the resilience of Javon Evans on display here tonight.
00:27:49He's a remarkable athlete.
00:27:52Incredible blend of athleticism, creativity, and charisma.
00:27:56But that may have just been knocked out of him.
00:27:59That kick right to the jaw of Bravo now.
00:28:02Caught!
00:28:05And Bravo!
00:28:07And this looks very familiar, this airplane spin.
00:28:11Calls this the Nino Grande Fuerte.
00:28:14Oh, nice.
00:28:17I think it translates roughly to Big Strong.
00:28:19We haven't seen anyone do that since, well nonetheless, into the cover.
00:28:25Oh, I thought Bravo was going for the cover.
00:28:26Surprised that he didn't.
00:28:27He rolled out to the apron.
00:28:28He got himself a little dizzy in the process.
00:28:30That's the problem, trying to get his bearings now.
00:28:32But Javon Evans is down center of the ring.
00:28:35And this could be a kill shot imminent.
00:28:40Bravo trying to drag himself up to the top rope now.
00:28:44Evans still trying to get his wits about him as well.
00:28:47Incredibly fast-paced for this entire match.
00:28:51A lot of high-flying offense.
00:28:52Uh-oh, took way too much time.
00:28:54Javon Evans leaping to the top rope.
00:28:56Wow, Spanish fly by Evans.
00:29:02Javon fired up.
00:29:04This audience just came alive.
00:29:06How spectacular.
00:29:07Oh, gee, Conor.
00:29:09Javon Evans, his first win as an official member of Monday Night Raw.
00:29:25The hits continue for Javon Evans, who is starting to mow through the roster here.
00:29:31What an incredible Spanish fly off the top rope.
00:29:35Followed by this Michael Cole.
00:29:37The OG Cutter.
00:29:39Connecting to perfection.
00:29:41Just a KO of Bravo in what was a hugely entertaining back and forth match-off.
00:29:48There is no slowing the young OG down.
00:29:51I like that KO of Bravo.
00:29:54I bet you did like that.
00:29:55You really don't like the Los Americanos family here.
00:29:58And look at this now.
00:30:00Ryo trying to get involved.
00:30:01Ryo trying to drag Javon Evans out of the ring.
00:30:06Look at that side.
00:30:06Uh-oh.
00:30:07And now Evans sent right over our announce table.
00:30:13Javon Evans tossed over the announce table by-
00:30:17Here, you're here.
00:30:18Vamono.
00:30:18Vamono.
00:30:19Vamono.
00:30:21Those Americanos and Evans now on a barricade.
00:30:26There's no escape now, Javon.
00:30:28I just want to get out of the way.
00:30:29You're in big trouble.
00:30:30So do I.
00:30:31Javon Evans is caught.
00:30:33And now, wow, leaps over the announce table, over El Grande Americano.
00:30:37And now makes his way out of the ring.
00:30:39Javon Evans on full display here tonight.
00:30:51He got the job, and now he's bouncing.
00:30:55Just too fast and too elusive.
00:30:58What a major victory.
00:30:59Yeah.
00:31:00Yeah.
00:31:01Yeah.
00:31:02Yeah.
00:31:03All inside the women's locker room for an hour.
00:31:05Let them all know it gets settled tonight.
00:31:07Got it.
00:31:08Appreciate it.
00:31:14Where is he?
00:31:18Hello to you too.
00:31:19How very professional of you.
00:31:21Greetings, Mr. Heyman.
00:31:22Thank you for blessing us here on Monday Night Raw with your friend.
00:31:24Oh, I'm not in the mood.
00:31:26And I am?
00:31:27Braun Breaker.
00:31:28When he shows up, and when he shows up with bad intentions, you tell him,
00:31:33turn around and go home.
00:31:35Because tonight's not the night and I'm not in the mood.
00:31:36And I will not tolerate it.
00:31:38You know, I have to tell you, it's my life's honor to be your messenger boy.
00:31:45Oh, I love it.
00:31:45I'll let him know if he shows up with bad intentions.
00:31:51Why, thank you so very much.
00:31:53The pleasure's all mine.
00:31:54Yes, it is.
00:32:01Well, the reason Breaker may show up with bad intentions is because of his loss last week
00:32:05to this man, the World Heavyweight Champion, CM Punk.
00:32:10Punk is here live next on Raw.
00:32:15Oh, we need to work fast.
00:32:23We're on fire, fire, fire.
00:32:31You hear that?
00:33:01Pry! Pry! Pry! Pry!
00:33:07Okay!
00:33:08That's right, uns!
00:33:09Go!
00:33:10Oh, God!
00:33:12Let's go, let's go!

00:33:26Come on!
00:33:29I said, what's up, Uso Dwarf?
00:33:53Yeah, y'all see what I did there?
00:33:55Yeah, hey, real talk.
00:33:57I ain't even want nothing, to be honest.
00:34:00I just wanna come out here, let all the tag teams know this is the warning shot,
00:34:06who's Jimmy and Jey Uso, the best damn tag team in the game.
00:34:11Y'all know the name, everything the same.
00:34:14So, running back, who's four letters, one word, three.
00:34:21I did, let's go, Uso.
00:34:38Warn this shot.
00:34:39Woo!
00:34:40Woo!
00:34:41Woo!
00:34:42Woo!
00:34:43Oh, yeah!
00:34:44Ha-ha!
00:34:45Oh, yeah!

00:34:47Oh, yeah!
00:34:48Oh, yeah!
00:34:49Oh, yeah!
00:34:50Oh, yeah!
00:34:51It's on me now, Uso.
00:34:52It's on me!
00:34:53It's on me!
00:35:02Hey, hey!
00:35:03Marty Man, knows where you throw it down.
00:35:04Hell, yeah!
00:35:05It's just me, oh, okay.
00:35:07Day one, it's just me, oh!
00:35:10Day one, it's just me, oh!
00:35:13Okay.
00:35:15This is what you ask for, heavy as the crowd
00:35:45You know, Fnatic set up a Royal Rumble in WWE 2K25 on New York Giants star Cam Scadamu's Twitch stream.
00:35:56Rumble entrants include athletes who will be attending Fnatic's Fest in New York City in July,
00:36:01which include the Giants quarterback Jackson Dart, Aaron Judge of the Yankees, Jalen Brunson of the Knicks,
00:36:06Josh Hart of the Knicks, Carl Anthony Towns of the Knicks, among many others.
00:36:10Fnatic's Fest will take place July 16th to the 19th, featuring more than 500 superstars, athletes, and celebrities.
00:36:17The Royal Rumble is on January 31st.
00:36:20I am the one!
00:36:21I am...
00:36:23Fnatic!
00:36:26Fnatic! Fnatic! Fnatic!
00:36:31Fnatic! Fnatic!
00:36:35Fnatic!
00:37:39Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the World Heavy League Champion,
00:37:45C. Tim Pong.
00:39:31I'm not ever gonna get tired of the privilege of being your heavyweight champion of the world.
00:39:38And as outlandish as it sounds, my plan is to be champion forever.
00:39:48But we are on the long road to WrestleMania, and anything can happen.
00:39:54Hell, just ask my friend Cody Rhodes.
00:40:01Yeah, I can plan on being champion forever.
00:40:04I can plan on being champion come WrestleMania.
00:40:07That doesn't mean it's gonna happen.
00:40:11But sometimes I feel with you people having my back, I can do the impossible.
00:40:16I said I was gonna be a fighting champion and right around the corner before we get to WrestleMania, we got the Royal Rumble.
00:40:35One month later, we got the Elimination Chamber.
00:40:39Two opportunities for somebody to call their shot.
00:40:42And I'm the guy standing here wearing the gold.
00:40:45The road to WrestleMania goes through me.
00:40:55I just survived a battle last week with Braun Breaker.
00:40:59So him, Paul Heyman, and the Vision are in my review mirror.
00:41:03It's time for the champ to look forward and do champ stuff.
00:41:07With your support, I very much look forward to finding out who my next challenger is gonna be.
00:41:15Thank you, Dusseldorf.
00:41:29Well, this is very interesting, especially because of what Liv Morgan said to Finn Balor just a bit ago.
00:41:38Telling Finn Balor, you promised to carry Judgment Day on your back.
00:41:42Go out and win some gold and it almost seemed like Liv was saying Finn got a bit complacent with things.
00:41:48Yeah, it was a rather cutting pep talk that perhaps bruised the ego of Finn Balor somewhat.
00:41:55But of course, Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez have already done their damage tonight.
00:42:00They've got themselves a number one contender's tag team opportunity later on tonight.
00:42:06And perhaps Finn Balor, with CM Punk out here mentioning he's looking for competition, might be licking his chops at the prospect.
00:42:17We're gonna make a statement.
00:42:18We're gonna go after the champ.
00:42:19We're gonna make a statement.
00:42:20We're gonna go after the champ.
00:42:23We're gonna go after the champ.
00:42:25We're gonna go after the champ.
00:43:01I'm not waiting for the rumble.
00:43:09I'm not waiting for the chamber.
00:43:14And I'm not here asking for a handout.
00:43:17But when you won that title, you name me as someone you wanna face.
00:43:23So here I am, champ.
00:43:31You're right, Finn.
00:43:34I mentioned your name on a long list of very talented individuals that,
00:43:39as champion, I wanna test myself against.
00:43:43But where's your ambition, man?
00:43:45That was two months ago.
00:43:46Where you been, huh?
00:43:47I look in the back and I see you, you're playing video games.
00:43:52You're worried about Dom, you're trying to help JD.
00:43:55Some weeks, I swear, you're just shining Liv Morgan's shoes.
00:44:01You think it's gonna be easy coming out here and picking on the champ?
00:44:08You watch me get my ass handed to me in war games?
00:44:10You watch me go through a war with Braun Breaker last week?
00:44:14You think it's just gonna pick the bones?
00:44:16Is that it?
00:44:17Hey, if you get a title shot, am I gonna be wrestling Finn Balor?
00:44:22Am I gonna be wrestling Finn Balor in the Judgment Day?
00:44:25Because I just did the numbers games with the vision, okay?
00:44:29You know what I'm capable of.
00:44:31And I am a man of my word.
00:44:38I did say your name because you are impressive and you are talented.
00:44:43I'm a fan of Finn Balor.
00:44:45I said I was gonna be a fighting champion yesterday.
00:44:56That means I'm gonna be a fighting champion today, and I mean today.
00:45:00I'm gonna go in the back, I'm gonna put my boots on, and
00:45:03we're gonna do this right here, tonight.
00:45:05You see Punk, I've been around long enough to know that time is everything.
00:45:30See, I'm not jumping the line to face you, no.
00:45:41Anyone who's watched my career from Europe to Japan to NXT to
00:45:48Monday Night Raw knows that the line starts here.
00:45:51So you don't have to worry about Dom.
00:45:58You don't have to worry about JD, but I won't be alone.
00:46:04You see, I've watched your career time and
00:46:17time again, take home field advantage in Chicago.
00:46:20Well, check your schedule, cuz next week we're in Belfast, Ireland.
00:46:27And it's gonna be the Punk versus the Prince.
00:46:32And there's gonna be a new Irish World Heavyweight Champion.
00:46:37All right, Prince, you're on.
00:46:46I apologize to the fans in Dusseldorf for
00:46:50you disappointing them, cuz they wanted to see the champ work.
00:46:53And I'd like to take the time now to apologize to the fans in Belfast,
00:47:02when they have to watch me put their countrymen to sleep with a GTS.
00:47:07Cuz at the end of the night, I'm gonna be standing on your chest with the ring
00:47:14announcer saying, and still heavyweight champion of the world, C.
00:47:19Well, Finn Balor took his shot.
00:47:30The question is, can he capitalize?
00:47:35And I beg our general manager Adam Pearce to make that official for
00:47:40next week on Monday Night Raw.
00:47:42Yeah, Belfast isn't exactly home for Finn Balor, but it is the Emerald Isle.
00:47:49And Irish eyes will be smiling next week if Finn Balor can grab gold from CM Punk.
00:47:55Again, it still has to be made official, but if it happens next week,
00:47:58it'll be our main event on Monday Night Raw live from Belfast.
00:48:01Speaking of main events, our main event tonight is gonna be a good one, AJ Styles versus Gunther.
00:48:16Ladies and gentlemen, John Cena's 23-year journey reaches the finish line.
00:48:27What about some respect for me?
00:48:32Respect for the man that made John Cena tap out.
00:48:40He tapped out like a little bitch.
00:48:45It is my time now!
00:48:48You just don't know when to shut up, do you?
00:48:51Guess I don't.
00:48:55If you are here to tell me about respect, AJ, you are punching above your weight.
00:49:03Because I'm the man that made John Cena tap out.
00:49:15Yes!
00:49:16You're gonna come in here and complain, huh?
00:49:18Piers, I want him!
00:49:20Two of the best in-ring technicians for the first time ever on Raw.
00:49:30Earlier tonight, AJ Styles told Gunther that it is about respect.
00:49:34I'm gonna teach you about respect tonight.
00:49:36When I make you tap out, AJ Styles, one of the all-time greats,
00:49:41versus the ring's general, Gunther, in our main event, live tonight.
00:49:47What is what?
00:49:51He got.
00:49:54That was good.
00:49:58I want you to take the impression of this,
00:49:59the throwing was going as good sacks a thing.
00:50:01What is this?
00:50:02Is this a little real personality?
00:50:03Man-nist.
00:50:04You look out.
00:50:05I want you to do something.
00:50:07I love you both know what?
00:50:08And then here's your hymn.
00:50:10The probably is the Women's Tag Team Championship number one contenders match.
00:50:22Introducing first the team of Asuka and Kairi Fane,
00:50:29the Kabuki Warriors.
00:50:33Well, the former tag team champions, the Kabuki Warriors made it very clear
00:50:38earlier tonight that they want the tag team gold back.
00:50:41The problem is two other teams want the tag team gold as well.
00:50:44It's a triple threat match to become the number one contenders for the tag title.
00:50:49Live next.
00:51:04So it was last week on Monday Night Raw,
00:51:06the one-year anniversary of Raw on Netflix where the Kabuki Warriors would lose their tag team titles to Rhea Ripley and Io Sky.
00:51:13And things did not sit well with Asuka and Kairi.
00:51:16Hell have no fury like two women relieved of their championship gold.
00:51:22That's the old saying, Michael Cole, and we're about to see that in full effect in this triple threat matchup.
00:51:29Of course, the Kabuki Warriors already started some chaos earlier this evening,
00:51:34but now give themselves an opportunity to get into pole position to win back their gold.
00:51:40A couple of very competitive teams stand in their way.
00:51:49Remember, under triple threat rules, first team to gain pinfall or submission will become the number one contenders for the tag titles.
00:51:56All time before we all fall down, all time tonight, all time tonight.
00:52:03All time tonight.
00:52:05One, two, three, three, four, five, five, five, five, six, six, six, six, seven, and seven, and eight.
00:52:20Number two, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and eight.
00:52:28Roxanne Perez and Liv Morgan.
00:52:36Well, we mentioned this earlier tonight.
00:52:38Liv Morgan never lost a tag team championship when she was teaming with Raquel Rodriguez.
00:52:44She held the tag team gold until she was injured back over the summer.
00:52:49Roxanne Perez would replace her.
00:52:50She was pretty successful with Raquel, but finally, Roxanne and Raquel would lose the tag gold.
00:52:56Yeah, and I think Liv Morgan has a hell of a point there when she's requesting another opportunity for that gold.
00:53:03That she never lost, albeit with a different tag partner this time around.
00:53:07Of course, Raquel, we know, is hurtling towards a women's world championship opportunity.
00:53:16But we know where her sights are set, leaving Roxanne and Liv in the tag gold hunt.
00:53:22And of course, Finn Balor now slipping around the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:53:27I'll have an interview with Raquel Rodriguez a bit later on tonight.
00:53:32Are you nervous?
00:53:33A little bit.
00:53:34Yeah, I'd be scared.
00:53:34Me and Raquel are close.
00:53:35Big Mammy Cool is one tough cookie.
00:53:38Keep your distance if you want my advice.
00:53:40And the team of Bailey and Lyra Vankiria.
00:53:57If you ever gave a damn, raise your hand, cause I'm about to set trip.
00:54:03Vacation plans, one point like my indexes.
00:54:05All you will ever get is some of the finger, finger prostate exam.
00:54:09Massive matchup here tonight in the women's tag team division.
00:54:15A triple threat match to determine the number one contenders for the Rhea, Ripley and Io Sky's tag team titles.
00:54:22The winner of this match will face off for the tag titles a week from Saturday.
00:54:26At Saturday night's main event, live from Montreal.
00:54:30And I get the impression that the entire world is really happy that this match is about to take place.
00:54:37Not least us two at the desk.
00:54:39Let me tell you two people who would be furious about this.
00:54:42Nia Jax and Lash Legend over on SmackDown who've been insisting they are owed an opportunity.
00:54:48What about Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss who believe they're owed an opportunity as well?
00:54:53That's four women now.
00:54:55There's a red hot tag division in WWE for the women.
00:55:00But we're about to crown ourselves new number one contenders.
00:55:03Who's it going to be?
00:55:04NXT crowned a new NXT North American champion in the women's division this past week.
00:55:08Is he Dame winning the title?
00:55:10So here tonight it is a triple threat tag team number one contenders match.
00:55:16Three women will be in the ring all at once.
00:55:18You can tag in and out.
00:55:20First team to gain a pinfall or submission will win the matchup.
00:55:26So Liv Morgan will start things off against Bayley and Asuka.
00:55:33Your old friend Bayley.
00:55:35They're singing to it.
00:55:36You idiot.
00:55:36Michael Cole.
00:55:40Take note Michael Cole.
00:55:45That is how you get in Bayley's good books.
00:55:48Serenaded with that song.
00:55:50I don't serenade anyone Wade.
00:55:52That's why no one likes you.
00:55:53I can't sing.
00:55:54And it's Bayley and Morgan and Asuka now.
00:55:56We're going to lock up here in this triple threat matchup.
00:55:58Liv Morgan we mentioned earlier.
00:55:59Never lost the tag team titles.
00:56:01Cover now by Asuka.
00:56:02Liv Morgan now.
00:56:04Cover on Asuka this time.
00:56:06And now backslide by Bayley.
00:56:08And in combination again Asuka.
00:56:10We're going to break things up.
00:56:12Again Liv Morgan injured back in June.
00:56:15Separating her shoulder.
00:56:17She had to relinquish her spot as tag team champion.
00:56:20Roxanne Perez was joined with Raquel Rodriguez.
00:56:22Was successful for a time before Raquel and Roxanne would lose the goal.
00:56:26Now Bayley with a shoulder right to the midsection of Liv Morgan.
00:56:31Bayley a former two-time tag team champion.
00:56:34Four-time world champion.
00:56:35Here's Morgan who was successful Wade in a return to the ring last week.
00:56:39Yeah Liv Morgan has looked absolutely fantastic since getting back.
00:56:43Major victory over Lyra Valkyria.
00:56:45Good momentum builder.
00:56:47But a victory tonight.
00:56:48What do you mean even more?
00:56:49Cover.
00:56:49And a kick out by Liv on the Empress of Tomorrow Asuka.
00:56:54And right from the word go you just see how chaotic this match type is.
00:56:57Triple threat tag rules.
00:56:59One woman from each team legal at all times.
00:57:02Trying to get a pin or submission under these conditions.
00:57:05Incredibly difficult.
00:57:06And now we reset with three tags being made.
00:57:09It's Lyra, Kyrie, and Roxanne Perez who are now legal in this matchup.
00:57:18Again I mentioned this a bit earlier on Wade.
00:57:20Lyra's been very vocal on social media lately over the fact that she does not believe that
00:57:25anyone takes her and Bayley seriously as a tag team.
00:57:28Not only the WWE fans but even WWE management in her words.
00:57:32So tonight a great opportunity for Lyra and Bayley to put it all together.
00:57:35Well I'll tell you why people don't take them seriously.
00:57:37Oh nice there from Roxanne Perez.
00:57:39Very cut throw.
00:57:40It's because Lyra pinning combination.
00:57:44Now Roxanne Perez into the pin of her own and a kick out.
00:57:48Bayley and Lyra Valkyria have just fallen at the final hurdle one too many times for a
00:57:53lot of people and they really have to prove it tonight that they are tag champion material
00:57:58here.
00:57:58No it took them a while to get on the same page.
00:58:00And I'm still not sure they are fully on that same page which again goes into issues
00:58:05of lack of chemistry within the team which can be called into question.
00:58:09And Roxanne Perez up over the top now looking to control.
00:58:11Kyrie sent back to the center of the ring.
00:58:13Nice takedown by Valkyria.
00:58:15Drop kick to Sane into the corner.
00:58:17There's a bullseye right there from Lyra Valkyria.
00:58:20Am I looking to finish the job here?
00:58:22Oh using Kyrie as a weapon dropping Roxanne Perez and Kyrie trying to get out of this
00:58:28predicament and does.
00:58:29I'm sure but Nightwing there was Lyra Valkyria but smartly getting out of there was Kyrie.
00:58:39Kyrie caught by Lyra.
00:58:42Now oh taken down Lyra and Roxanne.
00:58:48Get in there and dance Cole.
00:58:55Go on.
00:58:55I've asked Joe Test who he always refuses.
00:58:57Kyrie just mocking the over 11,000 here tonight.
00:59:01And Dusseldorf saying now into the cover.
00:59:03On Perez.
00:59:04Hook of the leg and Lyra Valkyria now scoops up Kyrie from behind.
00:59:08The official in this matchup Sean Bennett has his hands full.
00:59:12Valkyria a nice suplex into a bridge.
00:59:15And Sane's got to kick it too.
00:59:16The kind of matchup that really tests the cardio ability of an official.
00:59:21Constantly up and down counting those pins.
00:59:23Also these eyes in the back of his head at times with these six women competing.
00:59:28Now Lyra rallying the crowd.
00:59:30And oh!
00:59:31Trocks Roxanne Perez as Asuka pulled Kyrie Sane out of harm's way.
00:59:35Now Liv Morgan with a kick to the spine.
00:59:37Behind the referee's back.
00:59:38And this one breaking down in a big way now.
00:59:41And Bailey and Liv and Asuka all getting into it outside the ring.
00:59:45Chaos and Bedlam which is exactly how we started this show tonight.
00:59:49But keep your eyes peeled ladies.
00:59:51No count outs in triple threat matches.
00:59:53Someone's taking Kyrie Sade!
00:59:57An insane elbow off the top rope.
01:00:00The Kabuki Warriors could be rolling.
01:00:02Right?
01:00:03Ha!
01:00:05Ha!
01:00:07Wait, you better go check on our cameraman over there.
01:00:18Caught the crossfire of a very exuberant Kyrie Sane.
01:00:22Yeah.
01:00:22Topping him up.
01:00:23Bit of callous.
01:00:24I mean this has just been an epic display so far from the now former tag champs who are hell-bent on getting their gold back.
01:00:34Well Asuka looking to make some more history.
01:00:37If she wins another tag team title she'll-
01:00:39It'll be her sixth which would have set a record.
01:00:42She's now tied with Raquel Rodriguez for the most effort.
01:00:45Well they are closing in rapidly because three women are down.
01:00:48The Kabuki Warriors are-
01:00:49Oh!
01:00:50And the only person left in the ring is Bayley who is living dangerously here.
01:00:55Kyrie went for the sliding D. She hit the bottom turnbuckle instead and now makes the tag to Asuka.
01:01:01A former four-time world champion, Rumble winner, Money of the Bank winner.
01:01:06Asuka's done it all in her career here in WWE.
01:01:09Kyrie master of strikes and submission holds but you better pick up the pace to try and get a decision as quickly as possible with the rest of the competitors in this one down.
01:01:21Yeah what's interesting is no one from the Judgment Day is in the ring at this point in time.
01:01:25And a golden opportunity now by the Kabuki Warriors.
01:01:28Judgment Day got completely blitzed by these two.
01:01:31And now it's Bayley's turn to eat some of that with Lyra Valkyria gingerly picking herself off in the corner.
01:01:39And Bayley looks like toasting.
01:01:41Covered.
01:01:42And a kick out by Bayley.
01:01:45The world championship level competitor inside of Bayley.
01:01:50We're gonna get back to tag gold as soon as possible.
01:01:53You know Rhea and Io are here watching this matchup.
01:01:55If you're the tag champs which team do you want to face?
01:01:58Oh man there's no easy-
01:02:00Uh oh look at this.
01:02:01Almost had her.
01:02:02I'm gonna have to take the cheap shot.
01:02:04The only team who's never won tag gold before is Bayley and Lyra.
01:02:06So I suppose I would see that as the weaker team however.
01:02:10Although they-
01:02:11That may change rapidly.
01:02:12They've both been tag team champions in their career however.
01:02:14And look at Roxanne Perez.
01:02:16Just those windmill punches to Bayley.
01:02:18And now a cover.
01:02:20And a kick out.
01:02:22And that time on the floor served as something that they breathe a really full damage control.
01:02:27They've really taken full control of the match.
01:02:30Well that would be Judgment Day.
01:02:31You're thinking of the old team of Bayley and Io.
01:02:34I get it though.
01:02:35I do that all the time Wade.
01:02:36It's called age.
01:02:39Am I really in that category already?
01:02:41You've been there quite a while.
01:02:43Your hair is as gray as mine.
01:02:44As Morgan now continues to stomp away on Bayley in the corner.
01:02:48And now the Judgment Day is starting to ping things up.
01:02:50And you gotta wonder Wade.
01:02:52If they were buoyed by the fact that Balor came out here and called a shot earlier tonight.
01:02:55Yeah, absolutely.
01:02:56Feeding off one another within Judgment Day.
01:03:08A lot on the line tonight.
01:03:09The winner of this triple threat matchup will face Rhea Ripley and Io Sky for the women's tag team titles.
01:03:14A week from Saturday in Montreal at Saturday night's main event.
01:03:19And Asuka now.
01:03:20Connected with that lung blower on Bayley.
01:03:26And Bayley just recoiling back with a knee to the jaw on Asuka.
01:03:30Three women down.
01:03:32Three fresh women on the outside.
01:03:33And a tag.
01:03:35Tag.
01:03:38Kyrie and Lyra.
01:03:39Legal along with Roxanne Perez.
01:03:41He was desperately trying to get to Liv Morgan.
01:03:43And Liv now.
01:03:45Comes in.
01:03:45Did not make a tag.
01:03:46Is not legal.
01:03:47Big spin kick by Valkyria.
01:03:50Valkyria really got that second wind in this one and taking full control with it.
01:03:55Kick now to Roxanne.
01:03:56Cover.
01:03:57To advance.
01:03:58To the title match.
01:03:59And a kick out by Perez.
01:04:01And you could see in the background Kyrie saying desperately trying to crawl over to break up that pin.
01:04:06Didn't have enough left in the tank.
01:04:08Thankfully for her sake.
01:04:09There was a kick out.
01:04:11But straight into the line of fire now is Kyrie.
01:04:14And Lyra, the former Intercontinental Champion, driving Kyrie Sane into the corner.
01:04:19Both these women have been NXT champions in their career.
01:04:23And Kyrie trying to fight out of this.
01:04:25And now she's got some help from her Kabuki Warriors teammate, Asuka, at least momentarily.
01:04:30Bayley coming to the end.
01:04:31Oh, look at Bayley.
01:04:32Briefly a chance there to play the numbers game.
01:04:34Denied by Bayley.
01:04:35And now it's backfiring on Kyrie Sane.
01:04:38Kabuki Warrior.
01:04:40And now Bayley helping out her teammate Lyra Valkyria.
01:04:45Clinging off of dear life right now is Kyrie Sane.
01:04:47But might be a battle she's about to lose.
01:04:50Judgment Day getting involved now.
01:04:52High risk situation here for everybody involved.
01:04:56Whoa!
01:04:57Everybody down!
01:04:58I'll take a look at the bedlam of this landing.
01:05:11Five women completely spent and laid out in the center of the ring.
01:05:16Who can dig the championship depths now?
01:05:19It is an incredible atmosphere tonight in front of over 11,000 Dusseldorf, Germany.
01:05:24Our main event still to come.
01:05:25AJ Styles claims he will tap out the ring general, Gunther, tonight.
01:05:30Meanwhile, one of these teams is heading to Saturday night's main event in the Tag Team Championship match.
01:05:35Kyrie Sane has just collapsed on our desk as the chaos ensues inside the ring.
01:05:40Asuka just taking apart everybody now.
01:05:43And Bayley.
01:05:46Waist lock applied on Asuka.
01:05:48Standing switch.
01:05:51What was Bayley doing?
01:05:52Oh, go!
01:05:52Double German suplex by Asuka.
01:06:00Bayley clinging on for dear life there.
01:06:02Inadvertently German suplexing her own tag partner.
01:06:06And Kyrie Sane heading up top.
01:06:07And it could be the moment the Kabuki Warriors were waiting for.
01:06:13Kabuki special incoming call.
01:06:16Insane elbow connecting.
01:06:17Cover to advance to the Tag Team title match.
01:06:23Oh, and there's Liv Morgan breaking things up.
01:06:25I think Sean Bennett said that there wasn't a tag made.
01:06:28There was a tag, you idiot referee.
01:06:30I'm not sure there was one.
01:06:31I saw it.
01:06:33Well, nonetheless, he made the call, Wade.
01:06:34And as you know, the officials make the call.
01:06:38That's where it stands.
01:06:39Asuka should poison miss this referee for that.
01:06:41Oh, and a codebreaker there.
01:06:43Backstabber, I should say, by Liv Morgan.
01:06:45And now Liv runs into the knee by Asuka.
01:06:49And Roxanne Perez planting Asuka.
01:06:51Base first onto the mat.
01:06:53Ugly but highly effective.
01:06:55But now it's Kyrie Sane with all the momentum and a groggy Lyra Valkyria.
01:07:00And Kyrie crossbody caught by Lyra.
01:07:04The power there from Lyra Valkyria.
01:07:06Tag.
01:07:07Dig as deep as you can when championship opportunities are on the line.
01:07:12Off the backbreaker.
01:07:13Bayley now going to deliver her own elbow to Sane.
01:07:16Cover now.
01:07:18Asuka breaking things up and saving the matchup.
01:07:21Oh, how frustrating there for Lyra and Bayley who had the match won.
01:07:25But that right there, the Empress of Tomorrow with perfect timing.
01:07:29Yeah, that's the problem with these triple threat matches.
01:07:32Roxanne Perez now kicked in the midsection.
01:07:34Looking for Pop Rocks to Bayley.
01:07:36Connecting.
01:07:37Shoulders down.
01:07:38Kyrie Sane.
01:07:39Right place, right time.
01:07:40Oh, God.
01:07:41Every single team has had a major opportunity to win this one.
01:07:45But the timing of those tag breakups has been pivotal in keeping this alive.
01:07:50And now Roxanne Perez has completely lost it.
01:07:53Yeah, Roxanne going after Kyrie.
01:07:55Sent now into the ropes.
01:07:57Oh, and a big kick.
01:07:58Tag made.
01:07:59It lives legal.
01:08:00This is nice here.
01:08:01I'm not sure Kyrie Sane realizes that Morgan is legal now in the matchup as she sends it.
01:08:06Roxanne Perez out.
01:08:08Live!
01:08:08Oblivion!
01:08:10Cover!
01:08:13Live and Roxanne are heading to Montreal.
01:08:18Here are your winners.
01:08:19The team of Roxanne Perez and Liv Morgan.
01:08:28Well, about as chaotic a number one contender's matchup as can be, this was the moment clearing out Roxanne Perez, dropping a guard, was Kyrie Sane.
01:08:40And Liv Morgan there to bounce with an Oblivion 1-1 fight right later.
01:08:47And we have new number one contenders in the women's tag ranks.
01:08:50They will compete against the champs.
01:08:52They will compete against the champs, Io Sky and Rhea Ripley in two weeks' time at Saturday night's main event in Montreal.
01:08:59Yeah, week from Saturday in Montreal is Saturday night's main event.
01:09:05And speaking of Montreal, Friday night's main event are coming to the Bell Center in Montreal next Friday and Saturday.
01:09:16A week from Friday, combo and individual event tickets are on sale now via Ticketmaster.
01:09:28It has only been one week since I took my title back.
01:09:32There and Square absolutely no controversy and already mediocre Maxine gets a rematch.
01:09:38Whereas it took me almost two months to take back the title that was stolen from me.
01:09:45There was a legal interference, AJ Lee had no manager's license, Jessica Carr wasn't counting.
01:09:51But that is the kind of corruption that we are dealing with, with power-mad Pierce.
01:09:57That's fine, that's fine.
01:09:59I'm going to do what I always do, which is take those lemons and turn them into lemonade.
01:10:04Because in my homeland of Belfast, Ireland, I am going to prove once and for all why I am the greatest female wrestler of all time.
01:10:11It's not just me saying it, other people say it.
01:10:14Everybody says it.
01:10:15Sports Illustrated says it.
01:10:16The Bleacher Report says it.
01:10:17And now this says it.
01:10:22So Maxine, I hope you've enjoyed your time in the spotlight.
01:10:26Because next week, it ends.
01:10:29And you're going to have to say goodbye to the big time.
01:10:32Oh, big words from Becky Lynch as Maxine Dupree hopes to win her Intercontinental Championship back.
01:10:40It takes place next week.
01:10:42It's a special start time.
01:10:43Eight local in Belfast.
01:10:45It'll be three o'clock on the East Coast, 12 noon Pacific time.
01:10:49Next week, Monday Night Raw on Netflix.
01:10:51Well, Wade, Becky Lynch is a pivotal part of the new season, season two of WWE Unreal, the critically acclaimed documentary series, which debuts a week from tomorrow right here on Netflix.
01:11:06Here's a sneak peek.
01:11:08Sorry to disappoint everyone, but I'm not a fan of this show.
01:11:13I grew up in an era where you defended the secrecy of this business.
01:11:22That's how we earn our living.
01:11:26Over the next several months, we just keep raising the stakes until we get to SummerSlam.
01:11:34No days off here.
01:11:36Seth freaking Rollins!
01:11:38If we can make people believe that Seth is injured.
01:11:43That's where the magic happens.
01:11:46Lying to my friends and family.
01:11:49That guilt is always hard.
01:11:50My daughter, she says, I told Miss Joy that you had a pretend boo-boo.
01:11:55I said, no, Rue, you can't do that.
