00:00Uso splash, and Jey hooks the leg, Guttner kicks out.
00:08Oh man, Jey Uso out of nowhere connecting with this spear,
00:14softening the big man up, putting his own body on the line to hit the big one.
00:20The splash, this is it, uh-uh, not today, not against the ring general.
00:26And that might have been Jey Uso's final flurry, gone up in smoke.
00:32I was gonna say, Wade, if you're Uso, mentally, how do you cope with the fact
00:36that you just hit him with your one-two, and he kicked out?
00:39It's utterly devastating at the best of times, even more so,
00:44when you doubt your body's own ability to cooperate,
00:47and hit something that big again in this match.
00:50Luzo trying to drag himself back to his feet here.
00:58Guttner as well, Uso measuring his mane.
01:02Guttner unsighted and defenseless, pulling himself up in the corner.
01:07Guttner doesn't realize that Uso is set, ready to spring.
01:10Oh, now he does, he turns Jey inside out.
01:13Absolutely baited Jey in, he was fully aware what was going on there, Cole.
01:16And now, Guttner, went for the powerbomb, Uso able to counter,
01:21punched the leg to retain, on two and a half.
01:24So much resilience from Jey Uso.
01:26And a kick to Guttner, and now Guttner's in trouble.
01:29And now Jey Uso back at the sleeper.
01:32Jey Uso looking to take out Guttner.
01:34Guttner turns it around now, and, oh, and a knee right to the spine.
01:38So well-skilled, technically, not more than five seconds in these sleepers,
01:43and Guttner rings it.
01:45No, not the powerbomb.
01:47Stacks him up.
01:48Jey still has some life.
01:54Now Guttner, perhaps, started to get frustrated.
01:57He knows he's got a lame duck in the ring with him,
02:00but he simply cannot put him to the sword.
02:02Yeah, Valiant champion Jey Uso able to kick out of that powerbomb
02:07despite the injured midsection.
02:09Guttner, though, realizes Uso's wounded, and he's waiting to take out his prey.
02:17Guttner is hurting.
02:21That is a testament to the job Jey Uso has already done this evening.
02:26But it might be about to go downhill rapidly.
02:28Guttner and a spear!
02:30Guttner with a spear of his own!
02:33Cover!
02:33Hooks the leg!
02:35Jey's still in it!
02:37Man, Guttner wanted to take out Jey with Jey's own move,
02:41and somehow Uso was able to kick out.
02:44First time in Guttner's career, he's tried that.
02:48He tried it for a reason.
02:50Message sent to a broken and battered Jey Uso.
02:55Yeah, but what a courageous title defense tonight
02:58for main event Jey Uso.
03:0020-25 really has been the year of Jey Uso.
03:09More momentum than anybody on the roster
03:12who might be about to hit a brick wall
03:16in the form of this big Austrian.
03:18Jey trying to somehow fight back up to his feet.
03:24Bumped him with a big right.
03:26I'll tell you, Guttner's not reinventing the wheel here.
03:30It's all basic moves.
03:32Clothesline, big boots.
03:35Where is it?
03:36Show it to me now.
03:38Guttner hits them better than anyone else.
03:43Now just trash talking.
03:46Jey Uso will not go away without a fight.
03:51Still on his feet after a stiff arm clothesline
03:55by Guttner and another one.
03:56And Jey still fighting back.
03:58Digging down deep.
03:59Showing some guts and hearts tonight.
04:03And the courageous champion now.
04:05Went for a sleeper.
04:06But again, Guttner out so quickly.
04:08And then one of his own.
04:09You ain't getting out of this one.
04:11Oh, yes, you are.
04:11And Jey Uso driving Guttner face first into the turnbuckle.
04:15Kick of his own.
04:17Jey.
04:18Spear!
04:18Does Jey have anything left?
04:22Well, it didn't work the first time.
04:25Gunther's softened up for good now.
04:27Jey heading up top.
04:28Uso with an Uso splash.
04:30Nobody home.
04:31Right to the bad ribs.
04:34And that could prove costly for the champion.
04:37That was as close as you'll ever get to a scream from Jey Uso involuntary.
04:43An outlet for this massive amount of pain.
04:46And oh my God.
04:47The hooks are in cold.
04:48Yeah, the constrictor-like maneuver here by Gunther.
04:53Now he just puts the full weight of his body on top of Uso.
04:57Look at how the arm is slipped underneath the chin into a choke.
05:01As Jey now tries to make it to the bottom rope.
05:04That would force a break.
05:05Can Jey hang on?
05:07Can Jey Uso hang on?
05:08Gunther drags him back to the middle of the ring.
05:10Gunther with a sleeper still applied.
05:12Again, no way out of this perhaps for Jey.
05:15He's desperately scrambling with everything he's got.
05:19Gunther-
05:19Oh!
05:19Gunther-
05:20Gunther's on there.
05:21Yeah, but Gunther pulled him back to the center of the ring.
05:23Yeah, he didn't have a good grip on that rope.
05:25Certainly not good enough to break that hold.
05:27And again, now he just drags Uso back down to the ring.
05:30Jey Uso's center of the ring could be fading.
05:33Gunther's got his entire weight wrapped around the body of Jey Uso.
05:37Jey trying to fight back.
05:38The champion trying to stay in this.
05:39This audience willing Jey back into this.
05:42Do something, please!
05:43Jey Uso trying to fight out, but his eyes look like they're beginning to roll into the
05:48back of his head.
05:49Jey, does he have some fight left?
05:51Jey trying to stay in this.
05:52Jey trying to fight back.
05:53Jey trying to make it to the ropes.
05:55All the while, that carotid artery is being squeezed shut.
05:59Back to a vertical base for Uso.
06:01But Gunther drags him back down on the mat again.
06:03And that could be the last gasp for the world heavyweight champion.
06:08Can Jey stay in it?
06:11Fading rapidly.
06:12The eyes of Jey.
06:13Oh!
06:14Yeah, but how smart is Gunther?
06:16Oh, wait a minute.
06:18Now Uso into the sweeper.
06:20Uso with an opportunity.
06:22Somehow staying in this.
06:24I don't know how Uso's got any power left in those limbs.
06:29All-out adrenaline for the champion.
06:31Gunther's now fading.
06:32Shades of WrestleMania.
06:33Shades of WrestleMania.
06:34Will the ring general tap?
06:36Will Uso retain here?
06:38Is Gunther going to tap out again?
06:40To main event Jey Uso.
06:43Squeezing his way out of there again.
06:45Gunther able to slip underneath.
06:46And now the well-placed elbows to Uso.
06:48And now Gunther again wraps it in.
06:51And Gunther now wraps around the body of the champion.
06:55Does Jey have anything left?
06:58Anything left?
06:59So much taken out of Jey.
07:01The eyes surely faded now.
07:03Must be a million miles away from those ropes.
07:06There's no fight left, Cole.
07:07Jey has nothing left in him and it doesn't appear.
07:10Trying to somehow slip out of this sleeper by Gunther.
07:14Jey Uso's out.
07:15Jey Uso is out, I believe.
07:16He is out.
07:18Gunther becomes the new world champion.
07:23Here is your winner.
07:27And the new world heavyweight champion.
07:35The ring general.
07:39Goldtire.
07:41Well, the expression on the face of the new world champion says it all.
07:46He knows he was in a fight tonight.
07:48A massive fight with a very game and valiant, courageous Jey Uso.
07:54But at the end of the day, Gunther is once again, for the second time in his career, a world heavyweight champion.
08:03Jey Uso's just done too much over the last couple of months, but I'll tell you, I don't care how good you are in this game.
08:15Even the very best taken out occasionally, but the greats, they come back and avenge their losses with whatever it takes.
08:25And it took everything but the kitchen sink from Gunther tonight to prize Jey Uso's grip of the world heavyweight championship.
08:35You do question what kind of fight would it be?
08:39You do question what kind of fight would it be?
08:39Jey Uso really been rested at 100%.
08:45But Gunther didn't care, and nor shot he.
08:48This was about the big one.
08:50This was about the gold.
08:51This was about the world heavyweight championship.
08:54And in that moment, a new champ was crowned.
08:59Gunther, who prides himself.
09:01Gunther, who prides himself.
09:18.
09:23.
09:28.
