00:00:00.
00:00:23Introducing the first participant from California,
00:00:26weighing 175 pounds.
00:00:30Rey Mysterio!
00:00:36Rey Mysterio, the 2006 Royal Rumble winner,
00:00:40who went on to WrestleMania 22
00:00:43and became the heavyweight champion of the world.
00:00:47I'm looking forward to this.
00:00:49They got the band back together.
00:00:51The band's back together.
00:00:52Well, it's great to be back over here, Jerry.
00:00:54You know, usually it's good to be number one,
00:00:56but not when it comes to the Royal Rumble.
00:00:59It's not too bad to be number two usually,
00:01:01but not when it comes to the Royal Rumble.
00:01:03That means if you're going to win this thing,
00:01:05you got to outlast everyone.
00:01:07Rey Mysterio has the, well, the unfortunate distinction
00:01:10of starting off this majestic Royal Rumble.
00:01:13And Rey at one time went 62 minutes and 12 seconds.
00:01:17A record, the record as far as longevity in a Royal Rumble.
00:01:23So, Rey has proven that he can do it.
00:01:26He's done it in the past, but can he do it tonight?
00:01:29And let's see what Rey's opponent will be.
00:01:32Dr. Troy!
00:01:34Now listen, the amazing for this thing,
00:01:42from Central, California,
00:01:44rate 219, 519,
00:01:46is one half of the World's Tag Team Champions,
00:01:49two-time Slammy Award winner,
00:01:51Sean Morrison!
00:01:53J.R., don't you wish we could do that with our hair?
00:01:58I like to have abs like that.
00:02:04John Morrison, no doubt, ladies and gentlemen,
00:02:06would love to win the Royal Rumble match,
00:02:10and then roar into our next opportunity
00:02:13to join you on pay-per-view.
00:02:15We're in Seattle,
00:02:17where the big No Way Out Elimination Chamber.
00:02:22Well, that's absolutely a brutal Elimination Chamber.
00:02:30So we start here with John Morrison and Rey Mysterio.
00:02:36In 90 seconds,
00:02:38intern number three of 30 will enter the contest.
00:02:42Well, King, there's a lot about the look of the draw,
00:02:46and getting a break here or there to win this.
00:02:49Golly, the winner gets such a huge reward at the end of the night.
00:02:55Well, that's what the Royal Rumble is all about.
00:02:57That's why it is, well, the most unpredictable and exciting event
00:03:01that we have in the WWE.
00:03:03It only happens once a year, and it's started right now.
00:03:06The winner of the Royal Rumble match guaranteed a championship match
00:03:11and a main event at WrestleMania.
00:03:14The 25th anniversary of WrestleMania.
00:03:17Well, these are two talented, whoa, athletic, oh.
00:03:21I think, dare say, athletically innovative competitors.
00:03:26Rey Mysterio went over the top, but remember, both his feet must touch the ground
00:03:34could be eliminated.
00:03:35That's why the officials are gonna all be on the outside here tonight,
00:03:38looking for feet.
00:03:39Both feet touching the ground is a bad thing.
00:03:44That means you're eliminated from the Royal Rumble, and Rey was close there for a second.
00:03:49Now, look at this.
00:03:50Nice move.
00:03:52Mysterio using the ropes.
00:03:57My goodness.
00:04:00What a beautiful head scissor takeover.
00:04:03Twisting and turning, and there goes.
00:04:04And, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:04:07More and worse than athletic enough to grab the disc with the top rope.
00:04:13Still.
00:04:14The feet, the feet.
00:04:15Still.
00:04:16Referee looking for feet there.
00:04:18One, four, three.
00:04:20And the clock's down to two.
00:04:21One, two, one.
00:04:26Here's one half of the WWE Tag Champions.
00:04:33Carlito, who along with his brother Primo, compete every Friday night on SmackDown.
00:04:40And it's, again, every man for himself.
00:04:45I was about to say, no time for eating apples when it comes to the Royal Rumble,
00:04:50but Carlito came with a mouthful.
00:04:52Man, what a scintillating, swinging net brick.
00:04:59And here goes Carlito, but only to the apron.
00:05:04Well, judging by what we've seen from these competitors so far, look at this.
00:05:09Beautiful springboard succession of springboard maneuvers by Carlito.
00:05:15I think these superstars have been schooling themselves on ways to avoid hitting that floor after being thrown over the top rope.
00:05:25I get up every morning and I'm thankful about both feet are on the floor.
00:05:29Yeah.
00:05:30But not tonight for these guys.
00:05:31Look at this.
00:05:32Bing, spring, hit.
00:05:34Man, it's like poetry in motion there.
00:05:38But it wasn't a good thing for Morrison.
00:05:41Three of the great young superstars here in the WWE.
00:05:45Yeah.
00:05:46SmackDown, Monday Night Raw, and of course, John Morrison and his partner Miz often appearing on ECW, on SyFy.
00:05:56That's why Brandon Starr to be with him.
00:06:02They're always appearing on WWE.com with your Dirt Sheet.
00:06:05Three, two, one.
00:06:09Well, MVP could certainly erase a lot of losses.
00:06:17He got out of the loss, caught him with the helpless sledgehammer on Triple H a couple of weeks ago.
00:06:24MVP back to his winning ways on a big win streak, and he would love to continue it here tonight.
00:06:29I don't know how big a winning streak, but it's a winning streak.
00:06:33Very talented guy.
00:06:35All I know is earlier today, MVP came up to the team, do you know, back on a big win streak.
00:06:40Nice throw by MVP.
00:06:44MVP, lowest reigning U.S. Champion in Friday Night SmackDown history.
00:06:49Nice, crisp offense.
00:06:53But again, the object, throw your opponents over the top rope, and
00:06:58make sure both of their feet touch the floor.
00:07:01MVP doing a good job of trying to get his opponents first incapacitated and enable him to throw over.
00:07:09MVP duck just in time, and the drive by taking down John Morrison.
00:07:16Looks like MVP got a sight set on Rey Mysterio.
00:07:22Mysterio's got other thoughts.
00:07:26Mysterio wants on the penalty.
00:07:28And again, Mysterio able to land on the apron.
00:07:32That's about the second or third time Mysterio's got the tightrope.
00:07:37This was a short 90 seconds.
00:07:38Four, three, two, one.
00:07:42Uh-oh.
00:07:47Well, I think business has picked up King, at least in size.
00:07:51You're right there.
00:07:52And the size matters.
00:07:53This guy matters a lot because he's 73, 420 pounds.
00:07:59The most popular athlete from India ever in the WWE, a great Khali.
00:08:05Well, business is picking up and all the superstars in the ring are gonna be looking up now.
00:08:10Whoa.
00:08:11Khali's gotta get in the ring to be eliminated.
00:08:14I think that was sound strategy on the part of Carlito and these guys trying to take Khali out early.
00:08:21Even though it's every man for himself, common sense is about coming to play at some point.
00:08:27I don't think there's any one man in this Rumble that's gonna be able to single-handedly eliminate the great Khali.
00:08:33Strength.
00:08:36He is the Punjabi Playboy.
00:08:42Is that right?
00:08:43Yeah.
00:08:44Look at Rey Mysterio.
00:08:45That had no effect.
00:08:46That's where the head would Rey come from.
00:08:48Well, it's every man for himself.
00:08:51Well, I guess we can scratch the backstabber.
00:08:56Didn't even scratch the backstabber.
00:08:59Okay.
00:09:00I didn't really get it.
00:09:01Punjabi Plunge.
00:09:05This doesn't look anything like the Khali kiss can, does it?
00:09:09It does not.
00:09:10Khali has dominance as he arrived at number five.
00:09:15Well, we go from India to Russia.
00:09:20And the global presence of the WWE has never been better illustrated.
00:09:25The undefeated Russian, Vladimir Kozlov.
00:09:28This should be most interesting here.
00:09:31Khali and Kozlov.
00:09:33And look at that vice, the Khali vice.
00:09:36Kozlov's head being squashed immediately upon entering.
00:09:40Kozlov got that batter in there.
00:09:42Look at this.
00:09:43Good lord.
00:09:44I can't believe it.
00:09:45Kozlov.
00:09:46I can't believe it either.
00:09:47He single-handedly eliminated Khali.
00:09:50Whoa.
00:09:51That's impressive.
00:09:52That's impressive.
00:09:53Very, very impressive.
00:09:55And look at the MVP showing no intimidation.
00:09:58No fear, no backup from the, from Vladimir Kozlov.
00:10:03What a shot.
00:10:04Man.
00:10:05Right to the kidneys.
00:10:06Whoa.
00:10:07MVP can get back on that winning streak at another time.
00:10:14We've had two lifts in it now.
00:10:17No, no, no, no.
00:10:18Just two eliminations.
00:10:19Paolito lands on his, on the apron.
00:10:21Two eliminations, courtesy, courtesy of Kozlov.
00:10:25Vladimir Kozlov's first ever Royal Rumble man.
00:10:29Whoa.
00:10:30Whoa.
00:10:32Whoa.
00:10:37Kozlov imposing his will.
00:10:39And will there be another elimination?
00:10:41Yes.
00:10:42Indeed there will.
00:10:43Kozlov eliminated three men.
00:10:45Go.
00:10:46Go.
00:10:47Go.
00:10:48Ali, MVP, and Carlito.
00:10:50One, eight, seven, six, five.
00:10:55Number eight's about to join us.
00:10:56Three, two, one.
00:10:59Ray's trying to go for him.
00:11:01Lay's battering around.
00:11:07Well, the standing ovation is for the 2002 Royal Rumble winner.
00:11:14The game enters at number seven.
00:11:17And Kozlov for the game.
00:11:19Locking tits, menacing eyes.
00:11:22This is gonna be good.
00:11:29To late to Kozlov involved in the handicap match two days ago.
00:11:39And this is how that match started.
00:11:41And it's continuing right here.
00:11:43Virtual Slugfest for these two.
00:11:46A battering ram.
00:11:48What a, that headbutt is a battering ram maneuver.
00:11:53Look at that.
00:11:54Part of the Sturman.
00:11:55To late to his coming in with such momentum.
00:11:57Shard Kozlov as well.
00:11:59Look at the strength of Vladimir.
00:12:03Vladimir is 6'6, about 300 pounds.
00:12:07And the game has eliminated Kozlov.
00:12:11And for the gun of John Morrison.
00:12:18He's got a lead in the weeds.
00:12:20Like a slug is best natural defense.
00:12:22Kozlov is in there.
00:12:24Kozlov eliminated three men, but just got eliminated by the game.
00:12:29So we've got three men now, Triple H, John Morrison, and Rey Mysterio as the clock ticks down to number eight.
00:12:38Mysterio still stuck in the face of it.
00:12:43Last year.
00:12:44Uh-oh.
00:12:47Morrison holds on, but look at this.
00:12:55Without question, the most controversial individual in all the WWE,
00:13:01Randy Orton.
00:13:02Randy Orton has never won the Royal Rumble.
00:13:07Orton in the game, members of Evolution.
00:13:12Well, Orton's saying earlier,
00:13:17Orton's saying earlier that he hasn't heard what retribution he's gonna suffer for,
00:13:25what his actions that he called against Mr. McMahon.
00:13:29Look at Orton now, ready to strike like a coiled Viper.
00:13:32Here it is, RKO.
00:13:33Orton thinking RKO.
00:13:35And now the game looking to check out Orton's pedigree.
00:13:38John Morrison intervened.
00:13:41Not judicious that one.
00:13:44And now Rey Mysterio.
00:13:46Let's see the sub-Senton.
00:13:48Man, that big knee right to the midsection of Rey.
00:13:52The Senton, and now, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:13:55You got the number.
00:13:57Down it up.
00:13:58619.
00:14:00And look at the carnage and the bodies lying in the ring.
00:14:08Is this what's great about the Royal Rumble?
00:14:12One of these guys, somebody would be thrown over the top rope,
00:14:17both feet hitting the floor, to be eliminated.
00:14:19Who's next?
00:14:22Hey.
00:14:23It's prime time.
00:14:26Which one's it gonna be?
00:14:31Big Chad or JTG?
00:14:33It can only be one.
00:14:34They're gonna flip the coin.
00:14:35Is that a coin?
00:14:36What do you think it was a tooth?
00:14:39No telly.
00:14:40Maybe a license plate these guys made.
00:14:43That's a double sided coin.
00:14:47JTG wins the toss and is elected to offend.
00:14:52It was a two headed coin.
00:14:54Nice quick off just by JTG.
00:15:01That's what's great about the Royal Rumble.
00:15:04The later you come in, the fresher you are, and the more worn down your opponents are.
00:15:10Triple H, Morrison, Orton, Rey Mysterio, all these guys been battling JTG fresh.
00:15:16JTG might have stuck with someone else other than the Cerebral Assassin to first try to eliminate.
00:15:23Look at Randy Orton on the other side with Rey Mysterio.
00:15:26Mysterio teetering.
00:15:27And they need 40 television cameras to cover out of the action.
00:15:33Look at Mysterio holding on.
00:15:37Remember the winner of the Royal Rumble match goes to the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania and
00:15:42competes for a title in the main event.
00:15:45Three, five, three.
00:15:47What a world of these 90 seconds.
00:15:49I'm telling you.
00:15:50Blast them back.
00:15:51Four, three, two, one.
00:15:53Well, here comes Ted DiBiase, the son of the million dollar man, Ted DiBiase.
00:16:06This should be very interesting considering it's supposed to be every man for himself.
00:16:11DiBiase and of course Randy Orton along with Cody Rhodes have got us.
00:16:16I've been watching Monday Night Raw.
00:16:18Well, you're right.
00:16:19And I think that Randy Orton has made it clear to Priceless or to the legacy that Randy Orton.
00:16:26Randy Orton needs to be the winner of this Royal Rumble, but Orton's almost out at the hands of Triple H.
00:16:31Look.
00:16:32Randy Orton is-
00:16:33Teetering.
00:16:34Near elimination.
00:16:35Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:16:36Wait a minute.
00:16:37Look at the big bang.
00:16:38Look at the near elimination.
00:16:39ATT hanging on by one hand.
00:16:41Morrison as well, they're kicking.
00:16:43Still fighting.
00:16:44Mysterio in trouble.
00:16:45Good Lord, the Hulk.
00:16:46Wait a minute.
00:16:47Wait a minute, Hulk.
00:16:48Man.
00:16:49That's DiBiase.
00:16:50Well, that's Rey Mysterio and DiBiase.
00:16:51DiBiase and Rey Mysterio on one side of the ring.
00:16:54Morrison and JTG and then Orton and Triple H.
00:16:57Man, he can't miss him.
00:16:59And his closest to the ring.
00:17:00And his closest to the ring.
00:17:01He can't miss him.
00:17:02He can't miss him.
00:17:03He can't miss him.
00:17:04He can't miss him.
00:17:05He can't miss him.
00:17:06He can't miss him.
00:17:07He can't miss him.
00:17:08And as close as every one of those guys came to being eliminated,
00:17:13they all saved themselves.
00:17:14Well, that's what it means to compete and do everything you can to do that.
00:17:19Well, no goal in terms.
00:17:24That was very effective though, nonetheless.
00:17:26Three, two, one.
00:17:28That'll take Orton out of the lower Roman mindset.
00:17:31Whoa!
00:17:33The 2008 superstar of the year, who got fired on Monday Night Raw about a week ago,
00:17:48got rehired in a groveling apology.
00:17:53And now you know that, I think that may have really motivated Chris Jericho.
00:17:58He's going right for Randy Orton.
00:18:00These two guys just had a conversation, not a half an hour ago.
00:18:03Well, Jericho told Randy Orton in no uncertain terms,
00:18:07he thinks this is Randy Orton's last night in the WWE.
00:18:11And Jericho couldn't well be right.
00:18:13Darn right again.
00:18:14Orton just waiting to hear what his fate is gonna be after his actions last week.
00:18:19Here he is.
00:18:21In the right far side.
00:18:26Going over the top rope.
00:18:29Both feet of your opponents touching the ground.
00:18:32Lysolk.
00:18:33Is he able to move out of the way?
00:18:35It's not a Lionsalt night.
00:18:38No it's not.
00:18:41Walls of Jericho look into his very leg strength.
00:18:46That's from a man that's had both of his quads reattached.
00:18:51Think about that, ladies and gentlemen.
00:18:54That friend who's gotta feel good about himself when he sees that move from Triple H.
00:18:59The gang got one reattached, came in and won the 2002 Royal Rumble.
00:19:04If that's not a gut check, there's no such thing.
00:19:07Look at Orton and DiBiase double team of Morrison.
00:19:13One leg dangling.
00:19:18Five, four, three, two, one.
00:19:22Who's gonna join us?
00:19:22This monstrous Mike Knox.
00:19:30This guy's a little psychotic, this huge Mike Knox.
00:19:33A little psychotic.
00:19:35Yeah, he's going right to Rey Mysterio, just like we've seen on Monday Night Raw.
00:19:40And Mike Knox has the audacity to claim that he doesn't know why he attacks Rey Mysterio,
00:19:45has nothing against Rey Mysterio?
00:19:47I don't know if he doesn't know why.
00:19:48Not that I want to get close to Mike Knox and ask him.
00:19:57That's what we're gonna see here.
00:20:04This is supposed to be every man for himself.
00:20:06ATG's legacy being questioned.
00:20:12Orton and DiBiase ganging up if you will on ATG.
00:20:18Rey Mysterio.
00:20:19Rey about to be eliminated at the hands of Mike Knox.
00:20:23And the game interrupted that to get a piece of Mike Knox.
00:20:29Would anybody want a piece of Mike Knox?
00:20:31Ooh.
00:20:32That's a very good question.
00:20:35One I cannot relate to.
00:20:38There's lucky number 13.
00:20:52One, two, one.
00:20:54Well, another chance to see if every man will indeed be for himself.
00:21:07As John Morris' tag team partner, The Miz, one half of the World Tag Champions.
00:21:13Miz comes in fist flying.
00:21:15As you said, the freshman in is invigorated.
00:21:19He can see what's going on, see who's been weakened.
00:21:22Yep.
00:21:23A little bit of advanced planning.
00:21:25The later the numbers go, the more planning the superstars should be able to do.
00:21:30Miz doing some damage here.
00:21:31He just laid out Triple H, now Rey Mysterio.
00:21:33And there's a shot to the kidneys of Randy Orton.
00:21:39Miz's ties look like they're made by a landowner.
00:21:42Here you go.
00:21:43There's some double team.
00:21:44Yep.
00:21:46Miz and Morrison double teaming Randy Orton.
00:21:50Uh-oh.
00:21:52Everybody home there for The Miz.
00:21:55Look at what that little turn bubble feels like.
00:21:58Whoa.
00:22:00Orton with the RKO.
00:22:04The wrestling delivered nine of both tag team champions, and JTG gets one.
00:22:11Orton's on an RKO rampage, and now stopped by the game.
00:22:14Pedigree.
00:22:16Orton's pedigree was just thoroughly checked.
00:22:21And the game just eliminated the tag champions.
00:22:26One, two, three, two, one.
00:22:29Well, the tag champions were put on Green Street by Randy Orton's RKO, and
00:22:34the blade sent him for a ride.
00:22:36And Rey Mysterio.
00:22:39Look at Rey, look at Rey Mysterio.
00:22:41Mysterio's feet never touched the ground.
00:22:44He used Ben's and Morrison as stepping stones.
00:22:46And The Quiet Man, The Irishman, Finley.
00:22:50This ought to be right down Finley's alley.
00:22:52He loves to fight.
00:22:53It's like being in a tavern or a pub, I should say.
00:22:57In Belfast?
00:22:58Yeah.
00:22:59It's not a real happy hour.
00:23:01They don't have happy hour over there until the fight starts.
00:23:06Finley with a little bombs away action.
00:23:11And look at this, Finley trying to eliminate Chris Jericho.
00:23:16And Rey Mysterio giving an assist.
00:23:23Right, some of the pubs that Finley frequents,
00:23:26this is the way they decide who picks up the tab.
00:23:29Something you usually don't ever do.
00:23:31Look at this.
00:23:32Look at Orton.
00:23:33Orton was in a very precarious spot there until Mike Knox tried to pick off Finley.
00:23:39Look at Mike Knox.
00:23:43Man, Finley giving it to Mike Knox here.
00:23:47On the left side, Finley came with a lot of force.
00:23:50My God.
00:23:52And then Finley has hit everybody in this match at least once.
00:23:56I think he just kicked one of JTG's gold teeth out.
00:23:59Could be worse than mine.
00:24:01Orton again, Randy Orton saving Ted DiBiase.
00:24:08So obviously when it comes to Orton and DiBiase, it's not every two points out.
00:24:12Clearly not.
00:24:13And speaking of that, speaking of legacy,
00:24:17the son of the American dream Dusty Rhodes will be joining Ted DiBiase and
00:24:21Randy Orton in a every man for himself match.
00:24:25Look at this.
00:24:26It's like let's go fellas.
00:24:27A little pep talk for Randy Orton in there, as you said reinvigorated.
00:24:31I know there's three men triple teaming the game.
00:24:41Obviously legacy, highly intelligent second generation stars looking to pick off the
00:24:48baddest and the strongest most.
00:24:51This certainly appears to be a collusionary effort.
00:25:00I know I'm not a detective.
00:25:01At least for the moment, it's not every man for himself.
00:25:04It's three men for legacy.
00:25:06And the Mysterio score.
00:25:16Is Rey Mysterio amazing?
00:25:18I think Rey Mysterio coming in with an RKO.
00:25:21If it did, it happened in a blink of an eye.
00:25:26I'd love to see that again.
00:25:27Yeah, it was definitely.
00:25:28Mysterio and John Morrison now in the first two men in the ring.
00:25:30Let's see if we can see what happens.
00:25:31Rey incoming.
00:25:32Yes.
00:25:33You're exactly right.
00:25:34Whoa.
00:25:35That's why you're in the hall of three.
00:25:36That was a great counter by Orton.
00:25:40You have to give the devil his due then.
00:25:42JTG wearing out.
00:25:45Jericho.
00:25:46Nobody close to being eliminated right now.
00:25:49Who's next?
00:25:50Who's next?
00:25:54Well, there's no guess, Mark.
00:26:00When the lights go out and hear their music walking down the road to WrestleMania.
00:26:08Right down the double line is a man that's never lost at WrestleMania.
00:26:13And that has calculated the sold out crowd and every superstar in the ring.
00:26:18You see from the expressions of the faces of everyone, The Undertaker's about to make an impact.
00:26:25The 2007 winner of the Royal Rumble.
00:26:30The Demon of Death Valley is in his element.
00:26:34Striking.
00:26:35At three.
00:26:36No one's safe from the arm slot of The Undertaker.
00:26:42Even JTG must obey the law of gravity when it's administered by The Undertaker.
00:26:47JTG got some hang time thanks to The Undertaker.
00:26:54Man, the star power in this Royal Rumble match.
00:26:59Just look at those three right there, The Undertaker, Randy Orton, and The Game, Triple H.
00:27:04The Undertaker won the dominant superstars on Friday Night SmackDown.
00:27:14SmackDown Superstar has won four of the last six Royal Rumble matches.
00:27:20And your Cody Rollins, if you will, just ate some turnbuckle.
00:27:26One, three, two, one.
00:27:37The skeleton in his family's closet.
00:27:41The bizarre and often times controversial Goldust.
00:27:46You're right, Goldust is bizarre, and he is controversial.
00:27:53Look at this.
00:28:00Wow.
00:28:01Good one.
00:28:06Get back up.
00:28:09No.
00:28:11Cody.
00:28:12Hold on.
00:28:14Land on his feet on that ring apron.
00:28:16I thought Cody was history there.
00:28:18What is this?
00:28:20Patented move by Goldust.
00:28:22Once again, Cody.
00:28:23Two.
00:28:24Two.
00:28:25Two.
00:28:26Two.
00:28:27Two.
00:28:28Two.
00:28:30Two.
00:28:31And Goldust records.
00:28:32RKO.
00:28:33The suddenness, the effectiveness of the RKO again.
00:28:38The RKO again.
00:28:39I think Orton just struck.
00:28:53Two.
00:28:54DiBiase.
00:28:55DiBiase is about to be eliminated, but look at this.
00:28:57One, two, five, four, three.
00:29:03DiBiase in trouble.
00:29:05If Orton and the Rhodes haven't noticed, DiBiase is in danger.
00:29:17CM Punk.
00:29:18Making his third Royal Rumble appearance.
00:29:28And man, has this guy been in a role.
00:29:30Boy, a great CM Punk to do some serious damage.
00:29:35In seven months, CM Punk has won the ECW title, the world title, and the Intercontinental title.
00:29:42Now that's a role.
00:29:43How big would it be for CM Punk to win this Royal Rumble?
00:29:46He won the Money in the Bank ladder match as well.
00:29:49At WrestleMania.
00:29:50Hey, hey, hey.
00:29:51Looking to put the game to sleep.
00:29:53The bullet of sleep just nailed the cerebral assassin.
00:30:00Jericho.
00:30:04Jericho in jeopardy over here.
00:30:06He's hanging on.
00:30:08He's wrapped around the top rope, the bottom rope.
00:30:11Boiled.
00:30:13Trying to avoid elimination.
00:30:16Jericho doing all he can to stay in this Royal Rumble match.
00:30:21Perhaps a thumb to the eye just saved Charlie.
00:30:26Mysterio in big trouble.
00:30:27Mysterio, Mysterio holding on.
00:30:30Holding on.
00:30:31Mike Knox tied it when they bring Mysterio.
00:30:34I think those ring steps saved Mysterio.
00:30:36He was able to catch himself before he hit the floor on those ring steps.
00:30:40Whoa, no.
00:30:43The strongest man in the world, Mark Henry.
00:30:47Who could ever throw him over the top rope?
00:30:49And this is gonna make everybody reevaluate the game plan.
00:31:01A 600-pound bench presser can throw anybody over the top rope, I'll assure you.
00:31:06Those huge headbutts being delivered by Mark Henry finding their mark, so to speak.
00:31:12Mark Henry imposing his massive near 400-pound will on The Undertaker.
00:31:17Well, you know, and just looking at this, JR, I don't know if I can remember ever having as many participants not eliminated in the ring at one time as we have right now.
00:31:36Man.
00:31:38Rey Mysterio's been in the ring about 25 minutes.
00:31:42There's a big offense on the part of Jericho on The Undertaker.
00:31:45Mysterio came in at number two.
00:31:49Mark Henry just dropping all his weight right on the chest of Triple H.
00:31:54He's got a lot of damage being delivered.
00:32:01Finley, Finley.
00:32:02Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:32:03Punk.
00:32:04The Punk's three back in on the bottom rope.
00:32:07Very athletic to save himself.
00:32:10And the United States Champion representing Friday Night SmackDown, the gold standard,
00:32:20Shelton Benjamin.
00:32:21I'll tell you, JR, what this shows me is that how much this Royal Rumble, how much winning this Royal Rumble means to all of these guys.
00:32:30I mean, they have obviously prepared themselves on the art of being thrown over the top rope, but still not letting your feet hit the floor.
00:32:37I mean, how many guys, how many close calls have we seen?
00:32:40We've seen some amazing athleticism, and you're right, a lot of preparation.
00:32:45And look at Jericho and Punk, they're both up there in no man's land.
00:32:49That's not where you wanna be in this type of match.
00:32:51Look at Mysterio.
00:32:53And what elevation by Benjamin.
00:32:55But Jericho and Punk work on the second rope, Jericho work from the top rope.
00:33:02Punk trying to hit, but Jericho up the top.
00:33:05Look at Benjamin, my God.
00:33:07Good Lord, what a move.
00:33:09That was like a double DT, but it was the wrong way.
00:33:12Arguing with the best pure athlete in the WWE.
00:33:15Uh-oh.
00:33:16Well.
00:33:17Whoa.
00:33:19Man.
00:33:20What a kick.
00:33:21Uh-oh, you're gonna see him, Punk.
00:33:25Look at Punk holding, that's his feet.
00:33:29Referee there to get a good look.
00:33:31Triple H has been in this match the second longest as we speak.
00:33:35Approximately 20 minutes.
00:33:37Five, eight, seven, six.
00:33:39Five seconds away from the next entrance.
00:33:41One, three, two, one.
00:33:45Well, a man that came close and becoming the, and retaining his Intercontinental title
00:33:54last week on Raw.
00:33:56Certainly, I know our fans in United Kingdom watching on Scott's box office.
00:34:00I was just about to say Rey Mysterio was about to join the ranks of the eliminated here, but
00:34:07somehow missed.
00:34:08Exploder suplex by Regal.
00:34:14Look at Regal, man, he is taking his wrath out on the man that beat Regal for the Intercontinental title, CM Punk.
00:34:22And you can see the vicious attack that Regal is delivering there on CM Punk.
00:34:29Very personal for Regal.
00:34:31Look at Nox, Nox in the corner over here.
00:34:33Finley almost has, Nox eliminated.
00:34:35Mark Henry's walking away to Mark Henry.
00:34:37Nox has gone over the top rope, but he's back in underneath now.
00:34:43Mark Henry just got eliminated, folks.
00:34:50We apologize.
00:34:51Look at this.
00:34:52Rey Mysterio simply pulled that rope down, and Henry's own momentum took him out of the Royal
00:34:57Rumble match.
00:34:58You gotta pay attention every second.
00:35:00Look at Triple H.
00:35:01Triple H.
00:35:02Triple H is upside down.
00:35:03He can be eliminated any time.
00:35:05Whoa.
00:35:06The game, getting seated on the turnbuckle, still holding on.
00:35:13But how close was that?
00:35:14He's back in underneath that bottom rope.
00:35:17Kofi Kingston,
00:35:27entrant number 22, representing beautiful Jamaica.
00:35:32Kofi Kingston, I was gonna say, I don't know if there's enough room in this ring right now for
00:35:37Kofi Kingston to utilize his expertise, but he's doing a good job.
00:35:42Whoa.
00:35:43Yeah.
00:35:44Kofi's so athletic.
00:35:45Wow.
00:35:48Nothing Kofi Kingston can't do in the ring, I can tell you that.
00:35:52But can he win the Royal Rumble match?
00:35:54Boom.
00:35:55Nice elevation.
00:35:56Yeah, but Kofi needs to elevate some of these superstars over the top rope,
00:36:01down onto the floor.
00:36:02Can you believe that Rey Mysterio has been in this match over 33 minutes?
00:36:08Well, you know what?
00:36:09He might do it again.
00:36:10Could you imagine that, JR?
00:36:12I'm trying to count how many superstars are in this ring at one time, and look at The Undertaker.
00:36:18Undertaker busted open.
00:36:20That's not gonna do his adversaries any favors.
00:36:24And there goes Benjamin at the hands of The Undertaker.
00:36:31All about the Benjamins for The Undertaker.
00:36:33There's Rey.
00:36:34There's Rey.
00:36:35Rey Mysterio has been in this match the longest,
00:36:39about to be eliminated.
00:36:41Rey about to be dropped on his head outside on the ring floor.
00:36:46Man, the man holds a record for the most eliminations.
00:36:53Look at Rey.
00:36:54Rey.
00:36:55Rey just barely surviving there.
00:37:18The McCain.
00:37:24Undertaker, Kane.
00:37:25Now, that could be an unholy alliance if they decided to have some collusionary or
00:37:30some partnership.
00:37:31As I said, I think there's either 12 or 13 superstars in this ring at one time.
00:37:37I don't believe I've ever seen this many, this many of the Royal Rumble entrance.
00:37:43Uh-oh.
00:37:44And I don't like the chances for your Master Diviase.
00:37:59Triple H came in this match at number seven.
00:38:02Look out, Kofi.
00:38:03He's been in the match 25 minutes.
00:38:05Jericho fired into that ring post, but through the middle rope.
00:38:14These matches are so dangerous.
00:38:16You never know where you're gonna get hit.
00:38:18From the side, from behind, down low, up high.
00:38:21See a Punk on the outside, Regal.
00:38:23See a Punk eliminated Regal.
00:38:26Regal's gone.
00:38:30William Regal eliminated by CM Punk.
00:38:37Just one more reason for William Regal to despise CM Punk.
00:38:42One, two, three, four.
00:38:49Well, we know what's up with R-Truth at number 24.
00:38:54Win the Royal Rumble and go main event for a title at WrestleMania.
00:39:00The 25th anniversary of WrestleMania.
00:39:02That can make a lot of dreams come true.
00:39:07The accolades, the championships, the cash for winning a title at WrestleMania.
00:39:14He's watching Triple H.
00:39:15The gang just kind of biding his time, waiting over in the corner.
00:39:20They're trying to stay under the radar until R-Truth came in.
00:39:24Randy Orton.
00:39:25Randy Orton.
00:39:26And then Kane, Kane right in front of us.
00:39:29Orton has Kane almost, Kane's teetering.
00:39:34There's a cooperative effort to eliminate Kane.
00:39:37Three men could not do it.
00:39:40Finley, we're about to see a Punk, I think,
00:39:47trying to actually suplex Finley out of the ring onto the floor.
00:39:52And Rey Mysterio again.
00:39:54How many more bullets can Rey 50 dodge in this Royal Rumble match?
00:39:59After avoiding the elimination by three men,
00:40:06Kane now began to pick people off.
00:40:09Five, four, three, two, one.
00:40:14Triple H, Triple H is about, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:40:21It can't be.
00:40:26We told you the Royal Rumble was unpredictable.
00:40:30Rob Van Dam and the Superstars in shock.
00:40:36The fans on their feet.
00:40:3916,000 plus.
00:40:41The RVD champ reached for the rafters.
00:40:49Rob Van Dam, a surprise imprint in the Royal Rumble is walking.
00:40:56And rolling this rumble.
00:40:58The educated feet.
00:41:03Look at Rob Van Dam go.
00:41:05Watch out, Mike Knox, the monstrous Mike Knox,
00:41:08ground in or trying to ground.
00:41:09RVD, what a roast.
00:41:10What a shot.
00:41:11What a scintillating shot to the temple by Rob Van Dam.
00:41:15What an amazing flexibility.
00:41:18The uncanny use of his feet.
00:41:22Can you imagine Van Dam headlining WrestleMania,
00:41:25the 25th Anniversary King.
00:41:28Rob Van Dam presses a daisy here now.
00:41:31Van Dam in at number 25.
00:41:34That's a great number to draw.
00:41:37All right, Rob Van Dam, this is not too smart.
00:41:40Whoa.
00:41:44Number 26.
00:41:53Theme Brian Kendrick.
00:42:02Entering and he won't leave me alone.
00:42:05I think Ezekiel Jackson will not accompany Kendrick to the ring.
00:42:12Well, ordinarily when you look at these massive superstars that are still left,
00:42:17you wouldn't think Brian Kendrick would have a-
00:42:20Kobe Kingston eliminated by Brian Kendrick.
00:42:26Kendrick just, whoa, whoa.
00:42:29They're thrown through the rope, but now-
00:42:31And Kendrick can tell his tale of the Royal Rumble man.
00:42:35To his associate, Ezekiel Jackson.
00:42:38How long do you last?
00:42:3915 seconds?
00:42:40Triple H throwing the Brian Kendrick out of the ring.
00:42:45The fourth man that the game was illuminated.
00:42:48The game north of 30 minutes in this match.
00:42:52Right hand from Triple H on Kane and Van Damme and
00:43:01Punk exchanging right hands.
00:43:03And Rey Mysterio again.
00:43:09And Punk, three sides of the ring, three near eliminations.
00:43:14I don't know how CM Punk avoided hitting that floor that time.
00:43:17Undertaker taking a lot of abuse from Legacy over here.
00:43:24Four, three, two, one.
00:43:27As we have heard, more men have won this match at number 27 than any other number.
00:43:32Come on down and introduce yourself to the Royal Rumble.
00:43:37Dolph Ziggler, not even bothering to take off his ring jacket, well there it is.
00:43:46Yeah.
00:43:47Yeah, we know you're Dolph Ziggler, and that's-
00:43:49How you doing?
00:43:50Kane.
00:43:51I'm Dolph Ziggler.
00:43:52I'm Dolph.
00:43:54I'm Dolph Ziggler, and goodbye, Dark.
00:44:01Adieu to Dark.
00:44:04That's quite an evening.
00:44:05Quite an introduction.
00:44:06And now Jericho.
00:44:11Well, you see how Kane, you know, when someone just, Kane immediately,
00:44:15one of his legs around that second rope to avoid.
00:44:19Rey about to, Rey, again about to be eliminated.
00:44:23Rey Mysterio pushing the 42-minute mark, the second man in the match, Mysterio-
00:44:28Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, DiBiase, look at Rey, DiBiase, Rey, DiBiase are all over the dark place.
00:44:35Over the place.
00:44:36And now-
00:44:40From RBD.
00:44:44Randy Orton focusing on Rob Van Dam.
00:44:50Folks, we are trying our best to keep up with the action, it's far near impossible.
00:44:57Rey Mysterio needs to get back in the ring and try to stay in the center of the ring,
00:45:01away from the ropes.
00:45:02Yeah, stay away from the gone gone turnbuckle.
00:45:05No.
00:45:08The king of the unibrow.
00:45:13No offense, Kane.
00:45:15What?
00:45:16Good Lord.
00:45:17What the?
00:45:18It wasn't me.
00:45:19It wasn't me.
00:45:20No, it wasn't me.
00:45:21No, I think the warlord's record may have been broken.
00:45:24And no redo, Santino.
00:45:26Let's see, let's see if we can time this in our head, 1,001.
00:45:36Hey, it didn't even last two seconds, about a second and a half.
00:45:40So this Santino may have gone into the record book when on the way he would have liked.
00:45:47Whoa.
00:45:47He got two more men to enter.
00:45:56That would be 29 and 30.
00:45:57I got you.
00:45:59It's hard for me to do the math.
00:46:01So much action going on in this amazing Royal Rumble.
00:46:05Look out here, Jericho.
00:46:07Undertaker's got Jericho in a precarious position.
00:46:10I'm not sure if Jericho knows it, but I got a feeling he may find out sooner than later.
00:46:15Rob Van Dam being making a wish of Van Dam's legs.
00:46:20Speaking of math, JR, see here's Ted DiBiase Jr.
00:46:23Just, well, he's just past the 30-minute mark of survival here in the Royal Rumble.
00:46:27Well, Randy Orton's been in longer than DiBiase.
00:46:31Triple H now, Triple H.
00:46:37Kane has just got the game hanging on by a hand.
00:46:42The first winner of the first Royal Rumble ever, the 1988.
00:46:55How appropriate, Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
00:46:58What a big right hand.
00:47:00Duggan throwing that big smoked hand.
00:47:05And listen to this USA champ.
00:47:11Duggan going toe-to-to-toe with the WWE Taker.
00:47:13Hacksaw revitalized here, whoa!
00:47:16Can you imagine if Hacksaw Jim Duggan, 21 years later,
00:47:21would win the Royal Rumble match for the second time?
00:47:25That would be something.
00:47:28And anything can happen in the WWE.
00:47:32I think that's been proven time and again here tonight.
00:47:35Hacksaw just hammering away.
00:47:38He's hitting everybody in sight.
00:47:39Rey Mysterio at the 45-minute mark.
00:47:46As Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
00:47:48What's the game?
00:47:49The game.
00:47:50The game.
00:47:51Well, he was looking to get that, his leg hooked to the bottom of the inside rope.
00:47:55On the inside of the bottom rope, keeping the score at home.
00:48:00Horton that cheap shot on Finley, and Cody Rhodes almost eliminated by Finley.
00:48:10CM Punk has someone dangling over there, and I can't see who it is.
00:48:15It's DiBiase.
00:48:17DiBiase.
00:48:18The longer they come, the bigger they get.
00:48:27As infant number 30 is the biggest athlete in the world, The Big Show.
00:48:33Seven feet, 441 pounds, and the last two Rumble winners, King, have come at number 30.
00:48:41The luck of the draw for The Big Show.
00:48:46And the smile on his face tells that story.
00:48:48Remember, it's over the top rope, both feet touching the floor.
00:48:56And The Biggest Man in the WWE, The Big Show, with those big 18 AAA boots firmly planted on the canvas.
00:49:08Can they be planted on the pool?
00:49:10Look at this.
00:49:11And The Undertaker stepping up like, I'm the man that can get it done.
00:49:15He, sending a message to The Big Show.
00:49:18But you know what, JR?
00:49:19Look at this ring.
00:49:20Look at the Royal Rebel.
00:49:21One of these men that's left in this ring right now,
00:49:24are gonna be going to the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania in the main event.
00:49:29With the championships.
00:49:31And look at Hacksaw.
00:49:32Look at Duggan.
00:49:34Hey, you throw your back out.
00:49:37Well, Hacksaw was in the right place.
00:49:41I'm not saying his strategy was gonna work.
00:49:44Watch out, Hacksaw.
00:49:45Hacksaw, Jim Duggan, eliminated by The Show.
00:49:49Hacksaw, obviously a crowd favorite here.
00:49:54Chris Jericho trying to get a sleeper of some sort on The Big Show.
00:50:00I saw a sentimental favorite eliminated.
00:50:03That would have been a sentimental story for sure, wouldn't it?
00:50:06Yeah, look at this.
00:50:07Look at this.
00:50:08Man, Punk.
00:50:09I thought Punk was certainly gonna be eliminated there.
00:50:12See if Punk's got some stick with some broth maybe on those tape bands.
00:50:17I don't know how he's been able to hang on to that top rope so many times.
00:50:22And that could really go for several men.
00:50:25How many times has Rey Mysterio narrowly escaped elimination?
00:50:29Triple eight several times.
00:50:30And here goes whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop.
00:50:32DiBiase, get out of here for that list.
00:50:34The ever growing list of survivors here in the Royal Rumble.
00:50:38What we just saw from DiBiase, if you can, look at Randy Orton teetering.
00:50:43You can do what DiBiase did, use your own momentum as you're going over that top rope
00:50:48to swing yourself back in underneath the bottom and middle rope.
00:50:53You can save yourself.
00:50:54That's what DiBiase just did.
00:50:56Randy Orton's been on the mat for 38 minutes.
00:50:58Look at Big Show.
00:50:59Lord.
00:51:00Look at this break.
00:51:01Big Show eliminates his second man.
00:51:04There's no way to save yourself from that.
00:51:06That's the truth.
00:51:07Tony Rhodes.
00:51:10Tony Rhodes.
00:51:11That boy, he's lucky.
00:51:16He hasn't been in the woodshed enough and he just almost got eliminated there.
00:51:19Look at this.
00:51:20Have you ever seen so many guys able to-
00:51:23That's amazing.
00:51:24And look at CM Punk assaulting the Big Show and the Intercontinental Show.
00:51:30What's it again Punk?
00:51:31Hangs on for dear life in the Royal Rumble.
00:51:34Good move, good thought.
00:51:38The right hand.
00:51:43Knocked.
00:51:45The knockout right.
00:51:47The unworldly.
00:51:49CM Punk, you just got knocked out of the Royal Rumble.
00:51:53There was a big pump out and knocked out.
00:51:57Watch this, watch this one more time.
00:51:58Boom.
00:51:59Oh, Leigh.
00:52:01That's massive.
00:52:04Look at this.
00:52:05Hey, hey, wait, watch this.
00:52:06Finley over here, The Big Show.
00:52:08Whoa!
00:52:09Rey Mysterio.
00:52:10Rey Mysterio.
00:52:11Mysterio and Nox, I think they're both out.
00:52:15Hey, wait.
00:52:16What, Swaggle?
00:52:18Where'd he come from?
00:52:21Is he in the- Uh-oh.
00:52:23Where'd he come into the aid of his community son?
00:52:27Horsehawk is a good thing.
00:52:28I don't know if he's doing a nod there.
00:52:33Horsehawk trying to help him get out, and Finley eliminated.
00:52:37Man, did he hit.
00:52:38The fatigue and the toll of this matchup.
00:52:42Let's watch the way Rey Mysterio and Mike Knox,
00:52:46taking each other out of the Royal Rumble.
00:52:48And then just being told that Rey lasted an impressive 49 minutes.
00:52:54Amazing, absolutely amazing considering the punishment and
00:52:59the level of competition.
00:53:02So by my calculations, that makes Triple H now the longest survivor in this match.
00:53:10He came in at number seven.
00:53:13Everyone that preceded the game has now been eliminated.
00:53:18Code breaker, code breaker by Jericho on Kane.
00:53:22The game at 41 minutes.
00:53:24And the shocking Rob Van Dam returning here tonight to the Royal Rumble match.
00:53:30Man Dam came in at number 25.
00:53:34Man Dam delivering a shot right to the side of the kneecap.
00:53:39The Big Show.
00:53:41One of those body shots by the Big Show.
00:53:44Hey, hey, they're trying to make.
00:53:45Triple H, Triple H down.
00:53:47Randy Orton almost eliminated.
00:53:48No, wait, wait, wait, this will be worse than being eliminated.
00:53:50And now that we've seen these two battle of Friday Night SmackDown,
00:53:56The Big Show and The Undertaker, the right hand, Undertaker boarded the right.
00:54:13He's got a board the right to stay upright.
00:54:17Undertaker able to block every right hand that the Big Show is throwing,
00:54:20but Undertaker landing.
00:54:22Now Jericho getting a little help from the back side.
00:54:26Unlikely help from Chris Jericho.
00:54:28No.
00:54:29Rob Van Dam,
00:54:33Van Dam hit the splash,
00:54:38and got illuminated by Chris Jericho,
00:54:42who's proud of his head on.
00:54:44Don't turn around, you won't like the view.
00:54:45Man.
00:54:50Jericho with a big smile on his face from eliminating Rob Van Dam.
00:54:55Whoa.
00:54:58Look at Jericho go.
00:54:59Yeah, look at Jericho go.
00:55:02Go to the showers, Jericho eliminated by The Undertaker.
00:55:07And the body count is getting smaller than is in the ring.
00:55:15Cody Rhodes, Ken DiBiase, Randy Orton, Kane, The Undertaker,
00:55:21The Big Show, and The Game, surviving.
00:55:26But who will headline the 25th- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, look at this.
00:55:30The Double Team, The Triple Team, and Legacy eliminates Kane.
00:55:35The three Legacy members eliminated Kane.
00:55:39And now we're down to six.
00:55:42And Triple H realizes, and watching that, that it's not every man for himself.
00:55:47I think everyone realizes that, and perhaps that became crystal clear.
00:55:54As we have seen this match progress, and The Big Show assaulting the game,
00:55:59leaving Legacy to surround The Undertaker.
00:56:02Undertaker on the attack, I guess he figures to try to bounce some offense early.
00:56:08But the numbers game taking over here.
00:56:09One of these six men will headline the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania.
00:56:18And it could just well be the biggest athlete in the world who just chokeslammed the game.
00:56:25And this, and I speculate because how do you put a 441 pounder who doesn't wanna go over the top rope to the floor?
00:56:36Whoa.
00:56:37Whoa.
00:56:38Whoa.
00:56:40Legacy tried to Triple Team The Undertaker.
00:56:43Look at this.
00:56:45Triple H has been in this match over 45 minutes.
00:56:50But it's The Undertaker that's got things squarely in hand right now.
00:56:57Yeah, he's got Cody Rhodes in hand.
00:57:01Or by the throat.
00:57:04And now we're back to this again.
00:57:06The Undertaker and The Big Show.
00:57:08Stratts are down.
00:57:13Getting into what that means.
00:57:15This is picked up big time.
00:57:18Watch those rights.
00:57:19Undertaker striking is just to do this offense by The Undertaker.
00:57:24And now The Big Show after having those big right hands aimed at The Undertaker's head blocked earlier goes for the body blows.
00:57:31Body shots can be debilitating.
00:57:34Watch out.
00:57:35What a slumber off of a clothesline.
00:57:40That's the 6'9", 300 pounder taking down the world's largest athlete, Impact.
00:57:46But already, The Big Show back on his feet.
00:57:49That will do all the, my God.
00:57:51I don't believe what I'm seeing.
00:57:54Did you see that athleticism?
00:57:56The Big Show taking a page out of CM Punk, Rey Mysterio.
00:57:59Everybody's booked here tonight.
00:58:01Yeah, but The Big Show is a super heavyweight.
00:58:04He's super strong.
00:58:07Randy Orton.
00:58:09Randy Orton looking for the RKO, but The Undertaker just says no.
00:58:14And now The Big Show with a massive hand on the demon of Death Valley.
00:58:20Both men in no man's land.
00:58:23And a battle of wills.
00:58:27I got a feeling somebody's gonna go here.
00:58:30What a shot, and a right hand, a clear right, RKO.
00:58:35Orton eliminates The Big Show with the RKO.
00:58:39It just stuck with a right hand from The Undertaker, who's fought his way right back into the Royal Rumble.
00:58:45The Big Show, eliminated The Undertaker, eliminated by The Big Show.
00:58:54Be it fair or not, The Undertaker's eliminated.
00:58:58There are four men left, the three legacy members in the game.
00:59:03The Undertaker is not gonna take being eliminated for the Royal Rumble lightly.
00:59:07Look at the look on Orton's face.
00:59:11Is there any way the game can survive what is essentially a three-on-one situation?
00:59:18Will Legacies stay on the same page?
00:59:24Or will the allure of being a wrestler- Look at Triple H, go!
00:59:28And look at the game.
00:59:30Triple H has gotta fight with every fiber of his being to survive this whole shot.
00:59:38Get him, get him, get him.
00:59:40Orton's shouting directions, directing traffic, calling the signals.
00:59:45Orton holding Triple H.
00:59:48Well, D.B. Austin and Cody Rhodes do the damage.
00:59:51Now Orton turns loose.
00:59:52One, two, three, five, clean shots.
00:59:56With grief.
00:59:57Boom.
00:59:59Again and again, to the head of the game.
01:00:02Pick him up.
01:00:04Pick him up.
01:00:05Pick him up.
01:00:08Pick him up.
01:00:09Shouting instructions to Rhodes and
01:00:15DiBiase.
01:00:16And Rhodes and DiBiase being subservient.
01:00:20Doing, come on, slapping up.
01:00:26I'm in heaven shape, heaven shape.
01:00:33Come on.
01:00:33No!
01:00:34Orton did too much talking, the game countered the RKO.
01:00:40DiBiase checking on Orton, but the game with a face buster of Cody Rhodes.
01:00:49A double-A spine buster simulating to Ted DiBiase.
01:00:54And the game has wound his way back into it.
01:00:56The game has fought his way back into the fight.
01:00:59He's about to deliver a pedigree, but now there goes Orton.
01:01:02Orton's gone, no, no, Orton's not gone.
01:01:06What a pedigree, the pedigree to Rhodes.
01:01:09DiBiase is gone, we're down to three, we're down to three.
01:01:15And there goes Rhodes, but he's gone.
01:01:17Cody Rhodes is gone, Cody Rhodes is gone, Cody Rhodes is gone.
01:01:20He did it.
01:01:23I need the horses in my hand to take us free of the 2009 Hurt.
01:01:28Randy Orton, Randy Orton from behind, just as the game had eliminated Cody Rhodes, Orton struck.
01:01:40The game eliminated two thirds of legacy, while Randy Orton took advantage of opportunity
01:01:50to win the 2009 Royal Rumble.
01:01:54And you know what this means?
01:01:56Well, it means that that man, Randy Orton, has a one-way ticket to the 25th anniversary
01:02:04of Wrestlemania, but he didn't do it alone.
01:02:07There's his help.
01:02:09I taste blood that's dry in.
01:02:12I feel tension rising.
01:02:14I have horses in my hand.
01:02:17I see blood that's low on NA on earth.
01:02:19It lapsesë°˜.
01:02:23But if I breathe, I hit the water.
01:02:25And don't touch anything.
01:02:27I can't do it anymore.
01:02:29And you can see blood that directly oxidates humility.
01:02:34And there's a heart now.
01:02:37And you can see the resistance language clientcoon, and you can see a nationwide,
