00:00Making its win right from Mexico City.
00:16Waking in at 196 pounds, Sinakura.
00:21For the first time in his WWE career,
00:24Sinakura will participate in a Money in the Bank ladder match.
00:27And a ladder match for that matter.
00:31As we kick off the second annual Money in the Bank pay-per-view with a SmackDown Money in the Bank match.
00:39Booker T, you see this young man every single week.
00:41Have you ever seen a superstar in the WWE make such an impact in such a short time?
00:46Sinakura has taken the WWE by storm as well as one of my fave fives, you know that.
00:54See the fave fives from Manchester United.
00:58And at 260 pounds, Wade Barrett.
01:02And this is a man I predicted would win this SmackDown Money in the Bank ladder match.
01:06Wade Barrett.
01:08You and your predictions, Cole.
01:10Wade Barrett appearing in his first ever Money in the Bank ladder match.
01:16You also thought the world was going to end a few weeks ago too, didn't you?
01:18That wasn't me.
01:19Yeah, you were on that bandwagon.
01:21You had no idea of what you can do.
01:30You were on that bandwagon.
01:31What is your purpose?
01:32I want to know that you feel the power of a match.
01:33You're on that bandwagon.
01:34You're on that bandwagon.
01:35You're on that bandwagon.
01:35You're on that bandwagon.
01:36You're on that bandwagon.
01:37You're on that bandwagon.
01:38Justin Gabriel.
01:39Justin Gabriel telling me earlier today, as he heads into his first Money in the Bank ladder match,
01:44that he has jazzed tonight after a great visit with his family and friends
01:48during the Smackdown Tour of South Africa a couple of weeks ago.
01:52Booker, he says he's ready to go.
01:54We shall see tonight.
01:55You know, we know Justin Greg Capron is a high flyer.
01:58None of those moves are going to be able to help him tonight.
02:00He's going to be flying solo.
02:01Let's see exactly what happens.
02:05There's no help.
02:06The guy got still help.
02:07And 272 pounds, the Countless Warrior, Sheamus.
02:14Sheamus appearing in his first ever Money in the Bank ladder match.
02:20Let me tell you something.
02:21This right here, Sheamus, that's my dog.
02:24That's my pig, actually.
02:25We all know Siqara, have a hell of a chance.
02:28But that man, Sheamus, oh, dicky.
02:32From Marietta, Georgia, weighing in at 223 pounds, Cody Rhodes.
02:38For the second time in his career, Cody Rhodes heads into a Money in the Bank ladder match.
02:44Rhodes, of course, still donning the protective mask following the reconstructed facial surgery.
02:51I feel so sorry.
02:53Do you think his face will ever heal?
02:56Cody Rhodes, however, has turned into quite the right coach for his compadre Ted DiBiase.
03:00The one-man rock band moves to the beat of his own drum.
03:17Another rookie in the Money in the Bank ladder match here tonight.
03:20Cabbage, baby.
03:23Come in.
03:24Oh, yeah.
03:27From Aberdeen, Washington, we have 192 pounds, Daniel Bryan.
03:34Well, I guess even nerds are allowed in the Money in the Bank ladder match.
03:37I guess they had to make an exception for this guy.
03:39You know Daniel Bryan made my top fade five this week.
03:44You know what the fade five is, right?
03:45Tell me once again.
03:46Look at the top five guys.
03:48I got you.
03:49It changes from a minute to a minute.
03:50223 pounds, Kane!
03:55Well, ladies and gentlemen, Kane now entering his fifth Money in the Bank ladder match.
04:00Also joining us here at ringside tonight, our Spanish announced team, Hugo and Carlos.
04:06No matter who the size of the participant, Kane can be without a face.
04:09Here, everyone has a dream.
04:10To climb the stairs, to climb up, to climb up, to climb up, to have a fight for a title in one year.
04:14Who lives the dream?
04:15And who will he be tonight?
04:17That's the great question.
04:18And what tremendous wave can we transmit this to everyone?
04:23Okay, what they said.
04:24I just want to say,
04:25What happened?
04:27That means, what up?
04:28Yeah.
04:29I didn't know that one.
04:31They just pulled a CM Punk on those guys.
04:33Well, as you can hear from Hugo and Carlos, there is an international flair to this Money in the Bank ladder match and this pay-per-view here tonight.
04:42They are watching all over the world in places like Way Barrett's United Kingdom, Sincaras, Mexico.
04:49Also live in Italy, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, among others.
04:55So we are underway.
04:57Remember the rules.
04:58You have to climb the ladder, grab the briefcase that hangs high above the ring.
05:01Inside that briefcase, a contract guaranteeing you a world title opportunity anyplace, any time over the next year.
05:09Three big men facing off, and it looks like the, well, Sheamus and Barrett decided to join forces against Kane, but that didn't work.
05:16And you see Kane clearing the ring.
05:18Kane, the most experienced man in this matchup.
05:20In fact, Kane won the Money in the Bank ladder match last year.
05:23would cash it in on the same night to become world champion, setting a record here at this event last year.
05:30Great idea, guys.
05:31Trying to team up and get rid of Kane, get Kane on the mix right off the bat.
05:36That would be the strategy if I was in there.
05:39And now Slater and Gabriel, once teammates, they got a falling out as of late.
05:42But in the early going, Booker, as you mentioned, Friday, they may do working together as a team.
05:47Exactly what I said, I had a great idea by Slater and Gabriel, trying to get everybody out there.
05:52And then we go in here, mano a mano, get this thing done between you and I.
05:57That's what I'm talking about.
05:58Oh, yeah.
05:58So much for friendship, it's every man for himself.
06:01That little alliance didn't last long, did it?
06:03Well, you know.
06:04This is the ninth Money in the Bank ladder match of all time.
06:09Heath Slater, the first to set up the ladder.
06:11And Justin Gabriel, the high flyer from Cape Town.
06:14Whoa, and Justin Gabriel's up.
06:16I don't know if he's with arm reach.
06:17He's going to need a bigger ladder.
06:18Look at this.
06:19Look at this.
06:19Look at this.
06:19That's unique.
06:21D. Bryan.
06:23It's my boy D. Bryan right there.
06:26You know, Josh Axeby.
06:27Whoa, whoa.
06:28Josh Axeby earlier this week.
06:30Do D. Bryan have a chance in this match?
06:32I'm going to tell you right now, everybody in this match got a chance.
06:35Look at Cody.
06:36First one of the night trying to climb the ladder to grab the briefcase.
06:39And this time it's Sheamus.
06:40Man, they're going to need a bigger ladder, man.
06:44What is unique about this matchup from the SmackDown side of things?
06:48Whoa.
06:49Six of the eight men in this match have never appeared in a Money in the Bank ladder match before.
06:54A lot of new blood here tonight.
06:59Check this out right here.
07:00Look at the bottom left corner of the screen.
07:03Look at that superhero D. Bryan right there.
07:06That kid just got out.
07:08Now look at the...
07:08Did you just call Daniel Bryan a superhero?
07:11Yeah.
07:12Remember when he slapped the taste out of your mouth cold?
07:15And then you think that was Superman slapping you?
07:17What's Daniel Bryan?
07:18Let's see, the star of Revenge of the Nerds?
07:20Uh-oh.
07:20Whoa.
07:23Whoa.
07:24Kane again cleaning his house.
07:26And Wade Barrett.
07:28Wait, wait, wait, wait.
07:28Did Daniel Bryan slap the taste out of your mouth?
07:30Yeah, Lawler just brought that up, looker.
07:32That was a long, long time ago.
07:34Well, we don't want you to forget it.
07:37How do I ain't gonna forget it?
07:38Oh, man.
07:39Face first.
07:40Wow.
07:41Wow.
07:42I'm gonna tell you right now, Kane is on a mission tonight.
07:46I don't know if he would be my pick in this match.
07:48Look at, look at, look at, look at.
07:49If I was in this match with him, I'd certainly fear that man.
07:52Whoa.
07:52As I mentioned before, Kane has already won one of these matches.
07:55As he, Slater goes to work in the Big Red Monster.
07:58You know, there's a very interesting interview on WWE.com this week with
08:02one of the greatest ladder match participants of all time.
08:06The man who recently retired because of injuries brought on by these type of matches.
08:10That being the 11-time world champion, Edge.
08:13Watch out, Kane going up top here.
08:15Look at that.
08:15Oh, I see.
08:15Cara.
08:16Whoa.
08:19Edge twice cashed in the Money in the Bank contract to win a championship.
08:23And when, uh, when I, when Dotcom asked Edge about having eight men involved in this type
08:28of matchup, he said it makes it much more difficult.
08:31Whoa.
08:32You see that?
08:34That's that superhero, D-Bron, going nuts.
08:37He was flying.
08:39Look at a fly.
08:39Gabriel.
08:40Oh, man.
08:43Man, this thing here.
08:45This is unbelievable.
08:46This is unbelievable.
08:47Did you see that?
08:49This is just an example of what Friday Night SmackDown is all about, ladies and gentlemen.
08:53Wait a minute, guys.
08:54The international sensation.
08:55That's Steve Conner right there.
08:57Just got caught up in the lights, man.
09:01What a match.
09:02Steve Conner, give me some train work.
09:06I'm gonna tell you, this thing is moving at a fast, fast pace here tonight.
09:10This Money in the Bank match is super exciting right now.
09:14Check this out.
09:15My boy, D-Bron just with our boy.
09:17These guys, as you see, are all sacrificing their bodies for that ultimate prize.
09:25It's that contract hanging in the briefcase that has a contract in and hanging above the ring.
09:31And how important is that?
09:31Good for a title match anytime, anywhere.
09:33And, Jerry, how important is that contract?
09:35Every time it has been cashed in, a new champion has been crowned 100% of the time.
09:41That's why these guys are giving it everything they've got.
09:45Let me tell you something, Cole.
09:46You said it, Vince.
09:47Recently retired Edge.
09:49I mean, a guy like that, you leave a piece of your body in a match like this each and every time, man.
09:55Well, the reason that Edge was nicknamed the ultimate opportunist was because of the ways that he won this type of matchup
10:00and then would cash in the contract later on.
10:03Well, this is not gonna be good for somebody.
10:05There's one!
10:06Steve Conner, lighting it up.
10:09With the greatest of ease, Cole.
10:11There he is, the cliche machine, Booker T.
10:16That's Sincaro right there.
10:18That's my pick to win it all here tonight at this SmackDown Money in the Bank.
10:23I thought Kane was your pick.
10:25That was earlier tonight.
10:27That guy's okay.
10:28As you notice, Sincaro is in the middle of the ring all along looking up at the briefcase,
10:32but he realized there was no ladder in the ring.
10:34Now he has to introduce one just to get up there and grab the contract.
10:37Sincaro is not the tallest guy.
10:38He's gonna have to get one of the biggest ladders you can find down here.
10:42Well, he's got one.
10:42Look at the size of this ladder.
10:43What is this, an 18 or 20-footer?
10:45Oh, no!
10:46Damn!
10:46Speaking of foot, Sincaro just caught one right in the face.
10:49Wade Barrett.
10:50One of my top five, also one of my made five, Wade Barrett.
10:54Six-five, 260 pounds.
10:57And Wade Barrett, what in the world is going through his mind?
11:04Right now, Wade is just taking his time.
11:06Seeming like he's contemplating exactly what he wants to do right here.
11:10Building some sort of bridge.
11:12That's not a good thing.
11:13I'm glad it's to the Spanish Announce table.
11:18Not sure what his tactics are here.
11:20Oh, wait a minute.
11:22Oh, Sincaro.
11:23Look out!
11:23Oh, man, right arm.
11:26The bicep right into the steel post.
11:29Witness of Sincaro right there, though.
11:32Yeah, I think Wade Barrett maybe should have focused on getting the ladder in the ring.
11:35Oh, goodness!
11:36Good night with a bro kick!
11:39That's that boy.
11:40Sheamus just put that boy to sleep.
11:43Well, Sheamus says he needs retribution on Sincaro in his mind.
11:47Sheamus was defeated by Sincaro Friday night on SmackDown,
11:51embarrassed by him a number of times before.
11:53So Sheamus has now turned his focus on Sincaro.
11:57I'm not liking the looks of this right here, Cole.
12:00I don't like the looks of anything out here.
12:02There are ladders of all shapes and sizes screwed everywhere around the ring.
12:08Sheamus has got the evil intentions.
12:11Sheamus!
12:11Sheamus!
12:11He's not gonna do that.
12:12Oh, my God!
12:14Oh, my God!
12:14Oh, my God!
12:15Through the ladder!
12:16Oh, my God!
12:17That steel ladder was bent completely in half!
12:20Good night, Sincaro.
12:22Oh, my God!
12:24Oh, my God!
12:25Oh, my God!
12:36Oh, my God!
12:37Sincaro, this is bad.
12:38Watch this.
12:39That's unbelievable.
12:41Oh, my God!
12:42Oh!
12:42You see Sincaro in the top left-hand part of your screen there just convulsing.
12:47Well, that's some nerve damage right there.
12:50Sheamus.
12:50This is not good.
12:51With a massive powerbomb.
12:57When you see that hand twitching like that,
12:59you just got to hope that that's not some sort of spinal injury.
13:02Guys, I'm going to tell you, that's exactly what I'm talking about.
13:05I mean, people always ask me about the ladder match.
13:07I tried my best to stay away from these kind of matches my whole career
13:11because I could get hurt in a moment's notice just like that.
13:15You could have your career ended.
13:16But, Bunger, you were involved in a Money in the Bank ladder match before.
13:19One time in your career.
13:20One time, and trust me, I tried my best to talk my way out of it,
13:24and I just couldn't do it.
13:25But I totally tried to stay out of the line of fire as well.
13:29Meanwhile, the matchup continues as the EMTs have made their way to ringside
13:33to work on Saqqara.
13:34Kane and Sheamus going at it in the ring.
13:36God, this is serious. This is serious like that.
13:38Saqqara's hurt.
13:39Saqqara's hurt. Sheamus in the ring.
13:40No remorse whatsoever.
13:42It's every man for himself.
13:43It's about the opportunity at the World Heavyweight Championship.
13:47You know, and Edge touched on it in his interview on .com.
13:51Kofi Kingston from Raw touched on it as well, Jerry.
13:54Just what you put your body through and the sacrifices that you make in this type of matchup all for the ultimate prize.
14:01And at any moment in this match, it could be your last moment in a ring.
14:05I mean, Saqqara's only been here for a mini guy.
14:07I mean, he's had a hell of a run.
14:09And my question and my thoughts right now is, is it over?
14:12Now the double team of Cody Rhodes and Daniel Bryan.
14:16Rarely do you see men work together in this type of matchup,
14:18and there's an example of why.
14:19It's every man for himself.
14:21These two men in the ring bitter enemies on Friday Night SmackDown.
14:24And now Kane using the ladder as a weapon.
14:29That's what I'm talking about right there.
14:30That ladder, man, that right there could put you out of this business forever.
14:35Kane, the most experienced man in this matchup.
14:39As we see, Saqqara being taken to the back by EMTs.
14:43Doesn't look good, Kane.
14:44Smashed through.
14:45Look at Kane with a huge ladder.
14:47Kane doesn't even need a ladder that size to reach the briefcase.
14:50And Kane, could he be closing in perhaps on his second straight Money in the Bank ladder match victory?
14:57The big red monster trying to get to the top of the ladder, and it's Slater and Wade Barrett.
15:03And now Gabriel, former members of the Corps, three men working together again.
15:08Well, when Kane starts to climb a ladder, that attracts a lot of attention.
15:12Everybody, everybody know how important that briefcase.
15:14Hey, look at Rhodes. Look at Cody Rhodes.
15:16Look at Cody Rhodes.
15:17Cody's going to do it.
15:18And now Gabriel, Slater, turn up their attention to Rhodes.
15:23Cody Rhodes trying to sneak in the back door, but look at the strength in numbers there.
15:26That's what it's all about.
15:28Look at the back, Daniel Ryan.
15:30It's all about that contract in that briefcase, guys.
15:33That contract can make your career.
15:35I'm gonna tell you right now, somebody like D-Brien, if he get that contract, man,
15:39what can it do for his career?
15:40Well, careers have been launched over the past number of years.
15:45Thanks to the Money in the Bank ladder match, Edge won his first WWE championship after
15:50cashing in the contract.
15:52Now what, look at these guys.
15:53Former members of the Corps.
15:57I think Wade Barrett is trying to, well, he's obviously trying to direct some traffic.
16:01Do you think he's gonna be able to convince these guys to let him climb that ladder?
16:05You know what Wade Barrett's doing?
16:06He's doing what he's always doing.
16:07He's doing a little shot calling right now.
16:09He was the boss, in my eyes, of that outfit.
16:12Wade just told that outfit to watch us back as he gets the briefcase.
16:15And they're doing it.
16:16Well, they were doing it.
16:17Whoa.
16:18Slater and Gabriel let Wade Barrett snipped the briefcase and then snuffed it out.
16:24You know, I think this is something Gabriel and Slater have been wanting to do for a long time.
16:32Yeah, I think we're just the end of a chance.
16:34We are witnessing the end of an association, an era, an enterprise, whatever you want to call that group.
16:41Yeah, now who goes, oh, look at this.
16:45And Slater and Gabriel once best buddies, now scrambling for the briefcase.
16:51And it's Cody Rhodes on Slater's side.
16:54Slater fights off Rhodes.
16:55Gabriel's got the briefcase.
16:57Cody Rhodes playing defense.
16:59Dear Flyer.
17:00Crossroads.
17:05That's Cody Rhodes right there.
17:06Very, very dangerous.
17:08Cody Rhodes is looking to go up right now and catch it in right here.
17:12It looks like this could be it right here.
17:14A lot of carnage around the ring.
17:16This is it, guys.
17:17This could be Cody Rhodes' crowning moment.
17:19Wade Barrett.
17:21And now Wade Barrett trying to make it to the top of the ladder.
17:23Like grabs in a broken right hand.
17:25Oh, look at this now.
17:26Crossroads to Barrett.
17:27And Cody Rhodes is on fire.
17:30And Cody Rhodes, for the second time, looking to grab the briefcase, grab the contract.
17:38This is what could put Cody right back in business, grabbing that briefcase that secures that contract.
17:43Yeah, but Sheamus, he got in mind to put Cody out of business right here.
17:47Oh, my goodness.
17:49Same way he did Sin Cara, that's what Sheamus has in mind.
17:54That's Sheamus right there.
17:56Handle your business, young man.
17:58And look at Sheamus.
17:59Now Daniel Bryan trying to hold on.
18:01Both of these men, former United States champions.
18:04Sheamus, a two-time WWE champion.
18:07Would love to add the world title to his resume.
18:12I mean, D. Bryan's fighting like a madman.
18:14Yeah, but he's got no chance against a guy like Sheamus.
18:16I mean, he has a hell of a chance.
18:17Come on, wake up.
18:18He has a hell of a chance.
18:19Like I say, this match right here gives each and every man a chance to climb that ladder and grab that briefcase.
18:26Well, Daniel Bryan's not on top of the ladder.
18:31He's in a much more precarious situation.
18:34Wait a minute.
18:35Oh, man.
18:37Man.
18:38Kane just turned D. Bryan inside out.
18:42And Kane got leveled by Sheamus.
18:46And what I love about this type of matchup is new rivalries develop.
18:50Old rivalries are renewed.
18:52I mean, we've already seen Cody Rhodes and Daniel Bryan.
18:54Sheamus and Daniel Bryan who had a long rivalry for months renewing it here tonight.
18:59All in the Money in the Bank ladder match.
19:01Check this out right here.
19:02Oh, my God.
19:04There goes D. Bryan.
19:06Kane just wiped that boy clean.
19:09Sheamus, a winner of the 2010 King of the Ring.
19:13First ever Irish Ford WWE Champion.
19:17And he is now laying waste to superstars all around this arena.
19:22Sheamus has a ladder in place to climb for the briefcase, but what do you get in mind here?
19:28I mean, Sheamus has tasted that gold once before.
19:31I mean, he knows exactly what it feels like to be on top of the mountain.
19:35And I'm sure Sheamus wants that spotlight again.
19:38Sheamus seems to like Billy Bridges in this match, but...
19:41Uh-oh.
19:42Wade Barrett for Lechoka.
19:43Here we go.
19:45Kane, a two-time world champion, planning Cody.
19:49Justin Gabriel.
19:52Not a good move right there.
19:53And this is where Kane is dangerous.
19:56Momentum beginning to build.
19:58I'm gonna tell you, Kane can do it right now.
20:00If Kane scales this ladder right now, he can pull it off right here, right now.
20:07Kane trying to get...
20:09And look at Daniel Bryan again.
20:11A very feisty Bryan like a gnat.
20:14Getting involved in every part of this matchup.
20:17Well, that's what he is.
20:18He's annoying.
20:19He's a nuisance.
20:20He's a gnat.
20:21He's a pest.
20:22Yeah, but look.
20:23That little gnat's climbing the ladder at the same time as Kane is.
20:26And now he's got Kane off the ladder.
20:27Oh, yeah.
20:28Okay, Daniel Bryan.
20:29Oh, wait a minute.
20:31That D. Bryan in his fight is right there.
20:33Submission specialist.
20:34Daniel Bryan, a submission specialist, almost had Kane trapped.
20:38Whoa!
20:39Oh, look at the strike to Kane.
20:40They're gonna trap.
20:41You know what nerds do when they fall?
20:42Oh, man!
20:43Oh, my goodness.
20:44What a counter by Bryan!
20:45That's that boy, D. Bryan.
20:46I told you, Daniel Bryan has something to prove right here in this match tonight.
20:56Like I said, this could make Daniel Bryan tonight.
20:59Or it could make Heath Slater as well as Slater now scales the ladder, trying to make it to the top.
21:05Whose career could be launched or further solidified here tonight in the SmackDown Money in the Bank ladder match.
21:14Well, look at this, Cole.
21:15Now that little gnat Daniel Bryan is all over the back of Heath Slater.
21:19He's a pest.
21:20He's like the ant at your pick.
21:23Yeah, right.
21:24Daniel Bryan has just...
21:25Oh, yeah!
21:26Go D. Bryan!
21:27Yeah, you know what you call that?
21:29What?
21:30Splat.
21:31That's all you had?
21:33Yeah.
21:34Daniel Bryan is down and out.
21:36As is Heath Slater, who again goes back to the ladder to try to scale it to the top.
21:42You know, I gave Daniel Bryan the nickname D. Bryan because I see something in him.
21:47Tonight, D. Bryan is showing me exactly what he's famous.
21:50Yeah, because you guys are both nerds.
21:51You know all about being a nerd.
21:53That's what it's all about.
21:54I don't know what he does about.
21:55And look at Wade Barrett now on the attack of Heath Slater.
21:57Nerds.
21:58Nerds hang out together.
21:59You guys have a lot in common.
22:00You both played in the band in high school.
22:07Let's talk about this match if you don't mind, guys.
22:09Slater, top rope.
22:10Your high school exploits.
22:11Whoa!
22:12And Wade Barrett now in control.
22:15The former bare knuckle fighter.
22:22Again, Seamus, who is brought up in Manchester, a fan of the British Bulldog.
22:27Wade Barrett hoping that this is his crowning moment tonight.
22:32Don't we have enough ladders in the ring?
22:35Man.
22:36Apparently not.
22:38Sheamus back to his feet as well.
22:43We saw the damage Sheamus can do.
22:45Whoa!
22:46To Sin Cara and ladder to the ribs.
22:49Wait a minute here, guys.
22:50Wait a minute.
22:51Hang on.
22:52He better hang on to that ladder.
22:53Look at this.
22:54I don't know what we're doing here, but it doesn't look good for Slater.
22:57Oh, man.
22:58Launching Slater off the ladder into Kane.
23:03Slater was just swaying, trapped on the top of that ladder.
23:07No, front kick.
23:08Well, that's the way you get rid of the ladder.
23:10And a number one.
23:11Man.
23:12Sheamus is just letting loose right now.
23:15Look at this.
23:21And Sheamus.
23:22A lot of bodies laying flat out in the ring.
23:24This gives Samus a perfect opportunity.
23:26Off the ladder.
23:27Climb!
23:28Oh, shit.
23:29Sheamus said he was gonna prove that he was the man on SmackDown.
23:32He has a chance to do that tonight.
23:33Sheamus says climb that ladder, man, and grab that briefcase.
23:38I don't agree with this strategy at all.
23:40I think Sheamus just wants to eliminate every competitor and make it easier for himself.
23:44Go!
23:45I guess he's already taken Sin Cara out of the matchup.
23:47Who would or maybe next?
23:49What is he doing now?
23:52Who knows?
23:53Who knows?
23:54You know firsthand what this man is capable of, King.
23:59Well, that's why I'm saying, I mean, what this match is all about is getting up that ladder, grabbing that ultra valuable briefcase, but you have a chance.
24:08I think Sheamus has a chance, but look at this.
24:11I think Sheamus got his own agenda.
24:13Sheamus got a master plan here, not knowing exactly what it is, but he's pulling it off.
24:18Sheamus, go up there and get that money in the bank, dawg.
24:22I think he might be some sort of an architect or something.
24:25He's building, he's putting all these ladders in certain places for some reason.
24:31Definitely rearranging the furniture, King.
24:33And it's Sheamus.
24:34Climbing to the top of the ladder could be Sheamus' moment.
24:37Sheamus is up near the top.
24:39He's got briefcase in hand.
24:40This is it.
24:41He's got a hook in hand.
24:42And King with one right hand thwarts the effort by Sheamus.
24:46I'm going to show you how much these guys really wanted here tonight.
24:52SmackDown went in the bank ladder match, guys.
24:54This is exciting.
24:55Well, that's because whoever gets that briefcase is almost guaranteed they're gonna be the world champion.
24:59And again, Sheamus and King.
25:04Two of the largest men in the matchup battling it out.
25:10Sheamus, again, is only about an arm's length away, but King.
25:13Uh-oh.
25:14Way to be.
25:15Uh-oh.
25:16That's a long way to be chokeslammed bouncing off the ladder.
25:19Did you see the way the ladder bent?
25:21Sheamus' body bending in half.
25:26That's called sacrifice right there.
25:28Willing to put your body through anything.
25:30I don't think Sheamus is willing to go to do this.
25:33I'm gonna tell you, man.
25:34This is all Kane.
25:35Great.
25:36I'm gonna tell you, when you step through those ropes in a match like this, Cole,
25:40you gotta be willing to go through hell.
25:42And look at Cody Rhodes, Barrett, Bryan, allies for the moment.
25:47Trying to keep Kane away from the coveted prize.
25:50And we already see-
25:53Oh, look at this.
25:54The beautiful disaster kick off the jaw of Kane.
25:58That's what I said, man.
25:59A smart idea, guys.
26:00Team up.
26:01Get the big red machine out of here.
26:03That's just a little bit less you have to worry about.
26:05Look at Barrett.
26:06Barrett is going to attempt Wasteland.
26:08It does to Kane.
26:10And that will stall Kane for the moment.
26:14The allies' strategy we've seen work momentarily just for a while, but-
26:18Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
26:20Check this out.
26:21Justin Gabriel is-
26:22Justin Gabriel on top of that ladder.
26:24He's not gonna do that.
26:25Kane is below him.
26:27Justin Gabriel teetering on almost a tightrope.
26:30Whoa!
26:3150 splash in the tightest of space imaginable.
26:34Wow.
26:35Justin Grable just did that in a telephone booth.
26:38Oh!
26:39Man, man.
26:40And Wade Barrett on the attack as is Rhodes.
26:44Wow.
26:45Way to Barrett wasting a little time feasting on Gabriel who sacrificed himself for the good
26:51of the cause.
26:52Three men.
26:53Look at Barrett.
26:54Man, D-Pryor just went for the ride.
26:55And I believe it's Barrett's turn to begin to build momentum.
27:00Maybe it's his night.
27:01Maybe it's Barrett's crowning moment.
27:05You know Barrett said he was looking for bigger fish to fry.
27:12This could be that big trout that he's been looking for.
27:17I don't consider trout that big, but nonetheless, Barrett up to the top of the ladder.
27:21Cody Rhodes.
27:22Cody Rhodes now trying to drag Barrett off the top of the ladder.
27:26Cody Rhodes there at the last second.
27:28One, go!
27:29Oh!
27:30And look at Daniel Bryan again.
27:34D-Bryan trying to sneak up that ladder right now.
27:37The ant's back at the picnic, Cole.
27:39Yeah, the pest keeps coming back.
27:41And Cody Rhodes turns his attention now to the former United States Champion.
27:46The last person Cody Rhodes wanted to see grab that suitcase.
27:49Yeah, his arch rival, Daniel Bryan.
27:51A bitter rivalry over the past number of months on SmackDown.
27:55Remember, Cody Rhodes actually pulled one of those bags over the face of Bryan.
27:59Embarrassed and humiliated him.
28:01I hope this guy's with an arch.
28:02This doesn't look good right here, guys.
28:03And now it's Wade Barrett.
28:04And look at Bryan.
28:05Bryan with a guillotine.
28:06A guillotine on Cody Rhodes.
28:08A submission maneuver on Cody Rhodes.
28:09I don't know.
28:10Barrett from behind takes an elbow.
28:13Cody Rhodes off the top of the ladder.
28:15Oh, man.
28:16Daniel Bryan and Wade Barrett going at it.
28:17My boy D-Bryans, he's on the top of the world right now.
28:19If he could just grab that briefcase.
28:20I mean, he was on top of the world.
28:21Wade Barrett is about to lay waste.
28:23No.
28:24Meaning wasteland to Daniel Bryan.
28:25No, no, no.
28:26I tell you, this could finish Daniel Bryan's career if this happens.
28:27Yeah, look at Bryan continuing to fight back against Wade Barrett.
28:28Continuing to deliver the elbows to Barrett.
28:29Daniel Bryan top of the ladder.
28:30Well, that's out of desperation.
28:31That's the only way Bryan was gonna save him.
28:32What a kick.
28:33Barrett's down it out.
28:34My God.
28:35Oh my God.
28:36Oh my God.
28:37Oh my God.
28:38Oh my God.
28:39Oh my God.
28:40Oh my God.
28:41Oh my God.
28:42Oh my God.
28:43Oh my God.
28:44Oh my God.
28:45Oh my God.
28:46Oh my God.
28:47Oh my God.
28:48Oh my God.
28:49Oh my God.
28:50Oh my God.
28:51Daniel Bryan is all alone.
28:53Daniel Bryan is all alone.
28:54Daniel Bryan is all alone.
28:57Daniel Bryan at the top of the ladder.
29:00I don't believe it.
29:01Can you get it?
29:02You gotta be kidding me.
29:03You have gotta be kidding me.
29:05Here's your winner, Daniel Bryan.
29:12Daniel Bryan with the biggest win, the biggest moment of his career.
29:18Daniel Bryan is Mr. Money in the Bank.
29:24I never thought in a million years you would ever hear those words come out of my mouth.
29:29Yeah, how does it taste, Cole?
29:30How does it taste?
29:31All that crow you're just having to eat.
29:33Now Daniel Bryan with that briefcase in hand can challenge the world champion anytime, anyplace.
29:40I'm gonna tell you I got goosebumps with the emotion of Daniel Bryan right now, knowing exactly what he has in his hand, knowing exactly what this could do for his career.
29:49You gotta love it.
29:51Well, you know what?
29:52My hat's off to Daniel Bryan.
29:54He accomplished the unthinkable here tonight.
29:57Well, you're not kidding.
29:58Just think what this young man went through in this match, what all of these competitors went through.
30:03We've got Sentara getting medical attention in the back.
30:06We've got, I mean, carnage all around this way, ring, and somehow Daniel Bryan has emerged victorious.
30:13I mean, Daniel Bryan might as well have won the World Heavyweight Championship here tonight.
