00:00in this business like everybody has a million names you know obviously my real name's Paul

00:10Levesque but nobody in the business called me that until only a few years ago but you know

00:15a lot of guys also call me Hunter a lot of guys call me Triple H a lot of guys call me H a lot

00:21of guys call me trips back 20 30 years ago you never talked about somebody outside of their

00:31characters the world has changed people that aren't fans think like isn't that just a bunch

00:41of guys pretending to fight you got a map down yeah I believe that our business is actually

00:47more complex than anybody understands tell them to go now tell them to go now this is a calculated

00:52coordinated production seven days a week 365 days a year soap opera baby the story never ends you

01:04guys had no idea right no no and as we enter into a new era here there are a million things to figure

01:11out we have one of the all-time greats coming back for a retirement run we have incredible

01:21performers still in their prime we have storylines that are years in the making young talent that will

01:31become that next generation of superstars I won't put a rocket on your ass everybody wants a spot

01:38but there are only so many available oh my god yeah I fucking peed myself that is the biggest

01:48challenge it's like putting together a puzzle but the pieces are always moving oh god we're gonna

01:55lift the curtain we're gonna show you things you've never seen in this show oh no no no

01:59for the first time ever we're gonna show you how the story unfolded john before your eyes I was so

02:11scared not to come back it's good enough for the fans all fucking losing it right now you've always

02:17been a main event guys I don't get here without you thank you this is absolute insanity I need your soul

02:25ready here it is two give two camera two camera

02:29just get started man

02:33you

02:35hey hey how are you you want to do some Christmas stuff today you want to put ornaments on the tree

03:01yeah okay do you want to put this you want to put this guy Shawn Michaels gingerbread Shawn Michaels

03:07he was my favorite wrestler all right so we're just like that too like gingerbread yeah he was made

03:14of gingerbread that was they used to call it sweet chin music because of the gingerbread my name is Cody

03:21Runnels and my wrestling name and what I go by and pretty much I've gone by my whole life is Cody Rhodes

03:29Libby thinks that Cody is a professional dancer

03:33because she saw entrances which is the big music and the lighting I think she thinks there's a component

03:44of dancing to it and has asked me before are you gonna go dancing will you be dancing and I think

03:51she's even said when we showed her a couple clips on YouTube oh this is the dancing

03:55it's not the worst parallel

04:05I'm good with that

04:10if when asked what Papa does for a living I'm a dancer for my daughter I'd be the best thing dancer I

04:22possibly can be my role in WWE is that I am currently the undisputed WWE Champion

04:32it is a role that is kind of the hood ornament for the company I get to be one of the most authentic if

04:45not most authentic wrestlers of this era simply for the fact that I play myself I am myself Cody is

04:55the closest thing right now I think that we have to just a pure babyface that spot my opinion probably

05:04the most difficult spot in the business right now easy to be a bad guy tell people a bunch of

05:10convoluted shit that seems reasonable to you and I said that's fun and easy just to be the guy that

05:16does the right thing all the time and overcomes and always succeeds people sort of feel it's predictable

05:22people start to feel like it's like nobody's that good you know it's it's a tough thing

05:27I felt like such a bigger babyface

05:31yeah as white meat as you could be yeah as fucking white meat as you could be be that way until we

05:39can anymore you know yeah it ain't going anywhere now we just got to navigate it that's our fucking

05:45job our job me you fucking everybody but we navigate this now and figure out where we need to get it

05:51at some point here in a minute I need to get a picture of you with that okay one of my favorite

05:56ones ever there's a huge difference between being a wrestler and the WWE champion I've seen Cody through

06:06every one of those seasons and this by far the demand of the job is unimaginable I'm incredibly lucky

06:16that my wife and I met in wrestling otherwise she would have left she knows what this push is

06:23she knows what it could mean for the future and she knows what it means right here and now

06:30people say it all the time the face of the company yeah when people say that my heart like skips a beat

06:39um kid I always wanted to be that I just didn't know I could there you go look that's perfect

06:47so January 6th the premiere on Netflix fun raw

07:05is massively important for this company putting us on a platform that is what 300 million homes in

07:19that ballpark globally it's a lot of people yes Paul is our chief content officer his experience as

07:32being a former superstar for so many years has kind of helped aid him as a performer he was great

07:40he was a student of the game you know kind of understood the bigger picture of storytelling

07:52so now he's brought that to his role as chief content officer here I think Cody doesn't have

08:01like a role in this show I think he's been eyeballing this show as far as like want to be a part of it

08:06with Cody Rhodes the bigger the star the more you want to provide some scarcity of their star power

08:17to keep them as big as they are so it's special when Cody Rhodes is there and fans see that and feel

08:25that and they're anticipating your return even more so you have to know where everything is going

08:32long term and way in advance so we tend to break it down sort of into seasons the season will start

08:39with January 6th the Netflix premiere we'll do the weekly television shows at minimum twice a week

08:49along the way we will do the Royal Rumble which kicks off the road to Wrestlemania we will do

08:55Elimination Chamber which continues that road to Wrestlemania and then we will get to Wrestlemania

09:00itself which is a two-day basically it's our Super Bowl along the way you're building up these

09:09storylines obviously the biggest storylines revolve around our biggest stars chief among them being

09:16Cody Rhodes but John Cena is coming back for one last year of a retirement run arguably one of the

09:25greatest performers in the greatest performers in the history of our business and the return of John

09:30is a wonderful thing and a challenge at the same time my name is John Cena the name I use in the ring

09:37is John Cena my government name is John Cena wrestling is the foundation of the house of my family

09:44relationship I grew up in a family of five boys and wrestling was our conduit it was our connection system

09:51I appreciate this as my hobby that's the best of imagination land the not only did I do it during

10:01my free time but I paid to do it that I am the future of this business so I would do this for free

10:10I just physically can't do it anymore Cody Rhodes is in many ways kind of inherited that mantle

10:18from John Cena and Cody understood just how much the Netflix premiere meant for the company and Cody

10:26I think just feeling as if he is he calls himself the quarterback of of the team he wanted to be a part of

10:31it Cody wants to save Cena I know Cody wants it like they all square up the fucking you know take

10:39Cena down and Cody runs in and fucking makes the save totally understood obviously on big shows

10:44in company history Cody is no fucking franchise player for every reason to have him on the show

10:48obviously we don't have a half a dozen heels who are just everybody's got stories so it's like

10:54we're going to chuck judgment day out there you know it's yeah also and I get Cody's point of view

10:59but also like the first time we see John Cena in what a year but like he first time he comes out and

11:09like somebody's got to save him just feels off to me too we can write and choreograph whatever we want

11:17back here you have to be ready for the element you can't control and that's the audience if you ignore

11:24them man they will skewer you but I think whatever a performer does they have to invest in it and

11:32the roster is pretty deep but we got a lot of all-stars it's right now I have punk and Seth

11:38Roman and Solo we had Liv matches are so big you would want to give them time

11:46I love like taxidermy stuff so I have a two-headed duck I have an octopus a bat crocodile I have this

12:05little like mozzie mosquito this is like a shrunken head like I love creepy artwork and and dark colors

12:15and I love all of that stuff that's why my office looks like this technically my name is Demity Bennett

12:23but I go by Rhea Ripley and that's what everyone really knows me by Rhea is a goddess name and Ripley

12:31is from the chick from aliens because she's a badass and I just put them together ah ah thought it made

12:36sense I'm from Adelaide South Australia I watched WWE growing up absolutely loved it WWE came to

12:46Australia when I was 17 years old and they gave me a tryout then but I was too young they ended up

12:52coming back when I was 20 and they had another tryout so they invited me to that and yeah I mean the rest

12:59is pretty much history it's weird describing really for me because I am Rhea Ripley it's just

13:10like a 10 times version of myself she's crazy she's kind of scary but you're kind of attracted to her

13:23at the same time Rhea Ripley absolutely possessed I like to say that it's the side of me that would

13:29get arrested in everyday life she's just absolutely chaotic and sadistic and manipulative it's all the

13:38the sides of me that I don't like to show in my everyday life I'm always like Demi Bennett right before

13:44and I'm like freaking out and then as soon as my music plays I'm Rhea Ripley

13:49when that music hits it's a moment in the crowd and it's undeniable she has it she can be the biggest

14:05star in this business for a long time to come yeah I sorry my dog is playing with this tennis ball

14:12but this is Luna she's my first child Barry's my second and then Bella is my third Barry's always

14:22everyone's favorite aren't you Baz and you're the most annoying middle child that I have ever met

14:27huh yeah you got bad breath too so the story between me Liv and Dom has actually been going for like an

14:37eternity it feels like it this has gone on long enough Liv and I we have been feuding for like three

14:49years it's been a long time because we started as a tag team in Dom and I we kind of just like we

14:57kind of got put into this storyline together which I don't think was supposed to be a relationship

15:04storyline and then Liv Morgan decided to try and steal my family which she accomplished Dom turned

15:13on me and helped Liv beat me for the Women's World Championship it was a wild ride

15:22before that she ruined my entire life at work and she's she's sort of sucker attacking you and

15:39did you want me to sort of fight back a little bit or just take it depends depends on what she's

15:44like what is she throwing do we know and that's where my whole year kind of changed

15:53she threw me into the wall but like I have a third grade AC sprain I full-on broke character as well

16:04in in that scene my collarbone and my shoulder blade got ripped apart she had to kick me into the second wall

16:12but my shoulder was already stuffed up so I'm like holding my arm when Liv gets on me and starts punching me in the shoulder in the bad shoulder and I was like somebody please get her off me

16:24bruh I felt it as soon as I hit the wall I was like I grabbed it and I was like oh shit

16:35so I had a grade three AC sprain which means that my shoulder blade and my collarbone aren't connected

16:57anymore the only way to get them back together is through surgery and I opted not so like it was

17:02either surgery you have a scar or no surgery you have a massive lump in your shoulder so um that's

17:09why I have this bad boy so he looks pretty gnarly sometimes but it's just gonna be there until I decide

17:20to fix it if I do because I can still go back and have the surgery I just don't want to have that extra

17:25time off because it's gonna be six months compared to three months I know this sucks do not freak out

17:31we will make this into something wonderful okay sorry I'm sorry physical business shit gets everybody

17:41nobody walks out on skis

17:43my entire life I've done this so I can't say it's any harder now just because I'm older

18:06you know it's always been tough suffering is relative it's situational so now I think the landscape

18:15is changing so much and that excites me so I'm looking at that as like this is uncharted water I've never

18:24been more excited my name is punk cm punk punker cookie monster pepsi phil um black philip

18:34my government name is phil yeah it's a it's a white accountant's name

18:39I started wrestling in my friend's backyard in 1993 I started wrestling professionally in 1997

18:50I was always drawn to punk rock because if there was a rule of punk rock it's be yourself

18:57I have a hall of fame career I could put up against anybody oh my god

19:04CM punk is leaving with a WWE championship but if there was one thing in the sport I have not

19:12accomplished it's main event in wrestlemania initially uh hunter and I clashed because I was

19:20a main talent roster full-time the same time he was a main talent roster full-time so there's that

19:26competition and a lot of that generation was looking down at kids like me saying oh you're here to take

19:34my spot well I'm not going to let you or at least it's going to be a fight halfway through my career

19:40here he becomes office and now I'm like fuck you you can't tell me anything I always felt like my job

19:46was I'm in between office and the talent but punk would never let me assist and he would then

19:53sometimes attack me like you know where there would be moments where we'd have a meeting and he'd come

19:59at me and I'd leave there thinking like this little motherfucker punk didn't trust me and I didn't trust

20:06punk I had been on the road 365 days a year for 10 years straight after a while

20:14the wheels fell off John Cena while you you lay there I have a lot of things I want to get off my

20:24chest and you can say that I have a big mouth and I talked a lot of shit that doesn't mean anything I

20:32said was nothing short of 100% fact I'm not on your lovely little collector cups I'm not on the cover of

20:40the program I'm barely promoted I don't get to be in movies but the fact that Dwayne is in the main

20:47event of Wrestlemania next year and I'm not makes me sick

20:50this was Phil Brooks talking through the mouth of CM Punk and saying all the things that you weren't

21:00supposed to say if I didn't take myself off the hamster wheel nobody else was gonna and they

21:07they were gonna work me until I died when I left this place in 2014 I was heartbroken it took maybe

21:1610 years for me to heal from a lot of things we'd had conversations over the years for me to be able

21:23to come back here and just nothing nothing stuck I felt like how he communicated with others needed to

21:32change one time when he and I met after he had left this is years later where there was a conversation

21:40about him coming back I said still the same dude won't work the last time that we met and talked

21:47with him I felt like he honestly was different it seemed almost like in the phone call we both

21:54realizing oh he's different no I'm different let's give it a shot it has been quite the night

22:02at the sold out all-state arena in Chicago

22:05it's fair to say that me returning to WWE is the biggest return of all time

22:27he clearly knows he's much closer to the end than he is the beginning when you get to a certain age

22:45you start thinking about look I'm I'm one big injury away from I don't want to do this anymore

22:50looking at myself and my career right now I think my role on the roster is I feel like we need to

23:01take another picture yeah like work out and I'm the player coach can we do that yeah can you take a

23:06picture for us I'm I just I'm a huge mark for Rhea today I love it for Rhea yes I have years of

23:16experience that a lot of experience that a lot of people don't have I have made more mistakes

23:22and I am happy to help them learn from them I love you Jacob I love you punk by the way can I get a

23:30picture with you yeah 100 percent

23:32on January 6th it is not just the launch of raw on Netflix it is a new launch of WWE world wide

23:50main eventing Wrestlemania meant that you were the number one guy in the industry

24:02I'm looking at Netflix like there's only one debut raw broadcast let's do it start by putting over

24:11the match we're gonna call Seth out this is the thing I'm not going to begin gets in your face

24:16on it's first night Monday night raw Netflix one of the most anticipated matches ever you against

24:35Seth Rollins personal animosity disdain Seth right now looks and sounds like CM Punk from 2013 I know

24:43you know everybody else knows this is your last chance one of two things is gonna happen you're gonna

24:51self-destruct like you always do or if by some miracle you have changed and you've got any gas left in this

25:02old tank maybe one day you'll be lucky enough to stand across the ring from me and then I will expose you

25:11for the fraud that you are

25:13I think to understand you have to talk about the history between myself and Seth Rollins and it goes

25:24back quite a bit you're talking about the 16 year old Seth Rollins came to CM Punk and asked him to train him

25:32for free for free now that entitlement I think has carried over into the adult Seth Rollins now I don't claim to do those

25:42things because I wanted to thank you I recognize that that 16 year old kid had all the potential in the world and in my

25:49absence from this company Seth did a fantastic job of filling that vacuum but simply put the starters back second string got to sit back down on the bench

25:58back down on the bench

26:00back to the house that I built when you abandoned ship I got nothing left to say who's the bootlicker now bitch

26:05come on I got nothing left to say I have a microphone yeah I don't need a mic I don't need a mic I don't need a microphone

26:12the house that i built when you abandoned ship i got nothing left to say who's the bootlicker now

26:19bitch come on i got nothing left to say i have a microphone i don't need a mic i don't need a

26:27microphone i don't know if he was right here right now

26:31yeah so before we get into anything deeper than that let's talk about gorilla position

27:01you know years ago when tv production started to become a thing

27:09gorilla monsoon very famous wrestler he was timing things and controlling things

27:19from the area right before talent would walk out to go to the ring that became known as gorilla position

27:26gorilla position in today's world it is the epicenter of everything we do the show is run

27:35from there the gorilla position is probably the most important position in the arena

27:44have a great show guys you basically control the world that night your world the world wrestling

27:52entertainment is controlled from the gorilla position

27:55you know the gorilla position is very unique in every arena it's custom built however the the inside

28:06and the workings of it are the same there's primarily three tables set up inside gorilla position

28:11there's one table where triple h and bruce pritchard are sitting there's another table where billy kidman

28:18who is our producer responsible for timing out the show and keeping tabs on times next to him will sit

28:24the respective match producer

28:25as a producer i'm basically the liaison if you will between the talent and the heads of creative

28:33stay tight right here he'll convert this over

28:37nice all of our producers are former in-ring talents so for example chris park who was known as abyss

28:47another match producer is bobby rood michael hayes from the fabulous freebirds is our longest tenured

28:56producer and bruce pritchard is the executive director of the creative writing team so the

29:04mechanics during the match for me and the reason i'm wearing a headset is i'm talking to the truck

29:09keeping them about 10 or 15 seconds ahead of what's going on in the ring so that the cameras capture the

29:15story that we're trying to tell the whole story is we want to catch puck looking to the top of the

29:19cage for this last one bunk's eyes yeah there it is that is a great shot another thing that i'm doing

29:26on that headset as well is i'm talking to the referees the referees can hear me we need to go spider

29:32we need to go get him there quick i told him i told him the producers are talking to the referees

29:40all right stay with jacob braun's going to meet him with a chair that he's pulling from behind

29:44time keepers it's a whole nother world in my earpiece so the fans you guys are seeing just

29:49two wrestlers wrestling you know but in my ear i'm listening to at least in a match like five

29:54different things jacob jacob okay everybody's good he's selling if the talent needs to pick up

30:02their energy needs to have more urgency needs to slow down let something breathe whatever that

30:08instruction is it goes right through the ref be careful i'm swinging a chair near the fans

30:15block be careful oh damn it do not push fans right to the gun right to the back to the back again

30:24oh those are extras

30:25yes those are extras

30:30timing's probably the biggest pitfall that we need to look out for

30:34i can relay messages through the referees to the talent

30:38so a lot of times it's hey guys we only have two minutes left we're not gonna be able to

30:42fit all four of this in so that becomes stressful

30:44going heavy or going short are equally bad so plan a hit your time plan b hit your time

30:55how much time we in oh we're good we're good we're good we're real good our business is about

31:03telling stories this is awesome thanks everything we want it more and the epicenter of making that

31:11happen in real time live is gorilla position

31:15so

31:29so

31:33larry

31:37damien

31:39damien

31:41good boy

31:43Oh, boy. I'm gonna go to work. Okay.

31:57I just feel this incredible weight of pressure and responsibility.

32:05And these are the moments in where I move the best.

32:11This is where I thrive.

32:14Calm waters don't make good sailors.

32:20I think everybody needs a little bit of the adversity.

32:25Maybe a little less bullshit, but the adversity is a good thing.

32:32How are you feeling?

32:33I'm not there yet.

32:38What do you think you need?

32:39I'm good.

32:39Unless you're not fucking Peggy.

32:41No, I don't.

32:42I don't want you to do your thing.

32:44Well, then we're off, though.

32:45I don't want you to do your thing.

32:46I don't want you to do your thing.

32:49I don't want you to do your thing.

32:51The day came and it was just stressful.

32:56Just plain and simple stressful.

32:58I just didn't have any brain cells working that day.

33:09It felt like this was the biggest show of the year.

33:15Also, it was living my big blow-off match as well.

33:19I had all these things going through my mind.

33:22I don't know if I prepared. I definitely didn't sleep.

33:29I don't know if I'm dehydrated.

33:32I know that I'm not ready for this.

33:41I was almost in tears.

33:43I just couldn't switch on at all.

33:54I didn't even know what makeup I wanted.

33:59I had gear made because it was such a big deal,

34:02and I didn't even end up wearing it.

34:03I just wore something else because I was like,

34:06I can't think, I can't put that on.

34:09I don't think it looks good on me because we just had Christmas too,

34:11so, like, I ate a little bit much.

34:13I'm like, I don't want to wear that, you know?

34:15So, girl problems, I know, but...

34:21Hey, how are you? Good to see you.

34:23Good to see you. Oh, yeah.

34:26Countdown 10-9-8 in here.

34:28I think that's okay.

34:29Appreciate you. I'm gonna go lay down.

34:32What are you saying?

34:33Paul sent me a text and he said,

34:34it's like mania.

34:35I broke back his finger.

34:37So, I feel like tonight I'm not taking the back seat,

34:41so I can sit back a little bit and enjoy it.

34:46And this is, um...

34:47You know it's time for the farewell tour.

34:49This hurts your hip, or like your SI joint.

34:55It'll be alright.

34:56Here we are.

35:06I thought and always want this to be right for you for the year.

35:08I want you to get to the end of this year and be like,

35:10man, that was everything I hoped it would be.

35:12You know?

35:14Well, it's like the last page in a 500-page book.

35:18Yeah.

35:19All of us would really have to fuck it up for that last page to ruin...

35:23Yeah, yeah, yeah.

35:24...499.

35:25There's a way.

35:26Sure.

35:27Sure.

35:28But I'll...

35:29I'll play the stats and say it's not gonna happen.

36:34Kicking off the Netflix era.

36:35Carrying the people's championship that was given to him by the widow of Muhammad Ali.

36:39Finally, The Rock has come back to Los Angeles.

37:16And I want to acknowledge this man has carried this company on his back for a year.

37:22Cody Rhodes.

37:23Thank you, brother.

37:24Thank you for the night.

37:25Enjoy this, man.

37:26I'll do my best.

37:27I know it's tough because we get in business mode, but man.

37:28I will.

37:29Enjoy this.

37:30I'm always present out there, so I'll do my best.

37:31Congratulations.

37:32Thank you, brother.

37:33Thank you for the night.

37:34Enjoy this, man.

37:35I'll do my best.

37:36I know it's tough because we get in business mode, but man.

37:39I will.

37:40Enjoy this.

37:41I'm always present out there, so I'll do my best.

37:43Congratulations.

37:44Thank you, brother.

37:46Every event is a new live event.

37:49And I only have a few more next ones left.

37:55But I've always lived by the philosophy that you're only as good as your next one.

38:02The hits keep coming.

38:06I enjoy when our audience takes over.

38:09And trying to figure out that Rubik's Cube and that riddle of what do I do now?

38:16This is what this year is about.

38:18It's about making moments.

38:20And who am I going to face at WrestleMania?

38:21Who am I going to face in my last match in December?

38:24They're throwing out all kinds of names like Drew McIntyre.

38:27CM Punk.

38:32Cody Rhodes.

38:37The best way to say thank you to you is win the Royal Rumble and make history at WrestleMania.

38:43Right?

38:44You want some?

38:47Come get some!

38:48Come get some!

38:49Come get some!

38:50Come get some!

38:56John, that was awesome.

38:58Thank you so much, man.

39:02I'm sorry I didn't want to bother you.

39:04I just want to say good luck, do your thing.

39:05Do your thing.

39:06Thank you for everything.

39:07Yes.

39:08All right, man.

39:09Thanks for caring for the company.

39:10All right, buckle.

39:11Knee.

39:12Roll out.

39:13Headbutt.

39:14Boom.

39:15Double set a little bit.

39:16Go to get her.

39:17Head kick.

39:18Boom.

39:19She whips me.

39:20I duck under.

39:21I go under.

39:22It's grip time.

39:23Boom.

39:24One, two, one.

39:25Oh, my God.

39:26What the fuck?

39:27Dom.

39:28Boom.

39:29Victoria.

39:30Oh, my God.

39:31What the fuck?

39:32Dom.

39:33Boom.

39:34Victoria.

39:35Oh, my God.

39:36Oh, my God.

39:37What the fuck?

39:38Victoria.

39:39Hit her.

39:40She drops the chair.

39:41Turn around.

39:42Fuck it.

39:43Whoa.

39:44It's a lot.

39:46I know.

39:47I like to go to priest.

39:49And I like to just, like, go over what I'm gonna be doing out there.

39:54Yeah, it's a lot.

39:55Just be prepared to cut.

39:57And because you can't just rush through everything without your emotion.

40:02So it was just him pretty much telling me, like, less is more, which is a massive thing.

40:07In this business, like, less is really more.

40:10Like I said, either slapping the mat or just a fucking scream, but, like, to yourself, not

40:14even from the crowd.

40:15Yeah.

40:16It's just realistic.

40:17You know what I mean?

40:18Like, you're like...

40:19And you stand up and then you catch that.

40:20And then you, I mean, mouth something if you want to say something, like, but naturally,

40:24for real, like, to look at her and be like, now I'm gonna fucking kill you without the

40:28fuck, but...

40:30Take it easy.

40:31But then it's so weird because, like, I went from having an emotional breakdown and a massive

40:38panic attack to hearing my music, walking out there and being completely fine.

40:43I'll eat, sleep, bleed, like demons in your dreams.

40:53I'll eat, sleep, bleed.

40:59Tonight, an opportunity for Rhea Ripley to get a title back.

41:03If you look up the word superstar in the dictionary, that woman's face would be on that page.

41:12Rhea Ripley has it all.

41:15And then just wanting to really blow that match out of the water.

41:20I feel like I've been living Groundhog Day for, like, the past two and a half years.

41:34So now that this is the end, it's kind of weird.

41:40Looking for a riptide now on Morgan.

41:42Riptide by Ripley.

41:43Stacks up Morgan for the championship.

41:46Morgan kicked out.

41:48It was just hard coming up with a different way to do it all.

41:53But we kind of, like, grabbed the ball and ran with it.

41:57Ruffering didn't see it.

41:59Cover!

42:01Alright, we still got about 45 seconds until we're back.

42:03Let her know.

42:0445 seconds, she can grab a hold of shots.

42:06Copy.

42:07Grab that hold.

42:11Liv and I really just wanted to go off with a bang.

42:15Rhea trying to fight back and somehow get into this.

42:20Looking for a oblivion yet again, this time intercepted.

42:23Rhea intercepted Liv.

42:25Not this time around, Rhea says.

42:27Looking into the eyes of Rhea.

42:30Bloody Ripley!

42:32The reaction for her is incredible.

42:35It's hard not to look at her as the most captivating woman on our roster.

42:44Rhea again, setting up Morgan for another riptide.

42:49Rhea's not done yet.

42:50A second riptide!

42:53Third of the match!

42:54Cover!

42:55Rhea Ripley wins the Women's World Title!

42:59And move.

43:01Ladies and gentlemen, strapped a rocket to her back!

43:06Put Monday Night Raw on it!

43:09What is this idiot doing?

43:12Of course, we all know Dominik's a gold digger.

43:15Of course, he wants Rhea back.

43:17She's the champ now.

43:18Rhea's face.

43:19Yeah, stay wide.

43:21Don't miss this kick.

43:26Yes!

43:27That was deep.

43:28Very deep.

43:29Riptide!

43:32To dumbass Dominik Mysterio!

43:38Congratulations to the brand new Women's World Champion, Rhea Ripley!

43:46Yeah!

43:47Good job, Amy!

43:48Good job!

43:49Yeah!

43:50It was fun, wasn't it?

43:51Fun!

43:52Great job!

43:53Sorry, I had to rush.

43:54We thought we were going to do the program right now.

43:55It was great.

43:57So proud of you.

43:58So proud of everything you've done.

44:00I can't tell you a time when I have felt like,

44:03Hey, who's the most over person in the company right now?

44:07And it's not like you're not one of the most over women here.

44:11One of the most older people here.

44:13It's amazing.

44:15It's really great.

44:16Your aura is off the chart.

44:18Congratulations.

44:19So good.

44:21I'm so proud of you.

44:23I appreciate it.

44:24Just getting started.

44:25Today was a completely different feeling.

44:28I know how much pressure was riding on this.

44:31I mean, I think it was a very successful night.

44:34We went out there.

44:36The crowd was into it the entire time,

44:38so I'm grateful to everyone here at WWE

44:42for letting the little girl in me from Athlete South Australia

44:46live out her wildest dreams.

44:48So you guys are my brutally honest European friends?

44:52You tell me how it is when I'm done.

44:54You know it.

44:55Depends on that.

44:56Those are the modes we're doing it for.

44:58High pressure?

44:59Yeah.

45:00Big expectations?

45:01Yes.

45:02I told Hunter today, you know, this big thing 10,

45:0712 years ago about the main event of WrestleMania.

45:10This is why did I fucking get what I asked for?

45:13Hell yeah.

45:14Hell yeah.

45:15I'm looking at that Rob debut like, holy shit.

45:23I constantly have what I call anticipatory anxiety now.

45:29Like right now, I'm just riddled with it.

45:32In a way, I'm almost waiting for it to all be over.

45:36The only time I'm not gonna feel that way is when the red light's on and the bell rings.

45:42I have no boss.

45:43I'm 100% in control.

45:44I can do whatever the fuck I want.

45:45Here we go.

45:46Two men that are beloved by the WWE Universe.

45:49Seth freakin' Rollins and a man who has become his arch nemesis.

46:04CM Punk.

46:05You all know, time-wise, just give me before 8 o'clock.

46:07Gotcha.

46:08We're good.

46:09We're just trying to back load it, Bruce.

46:10Keep you on it.

46:11Yes, sir.

46:12People had in their own minds that it's Netflix.

46:25We can go two hours, we can go three hours, we can go four hours if we want.

46:31Not true.

46:33You've gotta try to keep the emotions in check.

46:37It was a great match.

46:39It was awesome.

46:40Now Seth Rollins gonna send Punk into the barricade.

46:44But it was way long.

46:46Oh, and Rollins sent out into the middle of the WWE fans.

46:51Both these men are figuring out what the hell's gonna have to happen to get a win here tonight.

46:57Excellent, excellent.

47:00How over are we right now, Billy?

47:02How long?

47:03A minute 45.

47:08Once guys are in the ring, there's not a lot you can do.

47:14On his shoulders, looking for the go to sleep.

47:16He connects with Punk's finishing move.

47:18The GTS.

47:20Come on, man.

47:21We gotta go.

47:22We gotta go.

47:23From producers to writers to talent, everybody has to be able to edit on the spot.

47:28If I was gonna cut anything, I would cut the anaconda vice out.

47:32Just throw that out to Phil.

47:34Oh, stop!

47:35Now using Rollins' finishing move!

47:38One, two, three, four!

47:41I'm sorry, Bruce.

47:43Bruce, I'm pushing him, Bruce.

47:45I'm pushing him.

47:46I'm pushing him.

47:47Seth Rollins.

47:48Looking for a neck breaker.

47:50Punk counter with a kick to the side of the head.

47:52Back that up so quick.

47:54Running high knee.

47:55Oh, Rollins caught him.

47:56Intercepted at this time.

47:57We're gonna get a buckle bomb here.

47:59They cut it out.

48:00Yes, Bruce, we're heading home.

48:02We're heading home.

48:03We're heading home.

48:04So this is the finish right here.

48:06Two men who've defined so much here in WWE over the past 20 years.

48:13A match years in the making has come down to this.

48:17Two men, both five-time world champions, physically exhausted.

48:21Rollins able to scale to the top rope.

48:23He's got Punk where he wants him.

48:25Superplex.

48:26Rolled through by Rollins.

48:28Quick for the Falcon Arrow.

48:29Punk.

48:30GTS.

48:31Going to sleep.

48:32And I think he was out.

48:35Just so happened to fall right back onto CM Punk's shoulders.

48:40Punk trying to muscle him up.

48:47He does.

48:48A second go to sleep.

48:52One, two, three.

48:56CM Punk wins.

48:58Here is your winner, CM Punk.

49:04Punk.

49:05What a fight.

49:08What a night.

49:09Help get Punk to his feet.

49:13You can go off the air as he's getting him up here, Brian.

49:17Official Rod Zapata able to get Punk to his feet.

49:21Thank you everyone around the world for watching this history-making night.

49:26Bruce, I'm sorry we went over.

49:31We know it was two and a half.

49:33We cut out a bunch of shit.

49:35We cut out the anaconda vice.

49:37It was overwritten.

49:38It was overproduced.

49:39It was over everything else.

49:40It's fine.

49:41It was a great show.

49:42Yes, sir.

49:43Thanks, Bruce.

49:44Thanks, sir.

49:46Don't put yourself up.

49:48I'm not.

49:49I'm not.

49:50I want to make this man happy.

49:51That's all.

49:52Is he mad at me?

49:54No.

49:55Make me happy.

49:56You'd be happy with yourself.

49:58I am.

49:59Right.

50:00Yeah.

50:01I think I feel way better than I'm supposed to.

50:06But I'm also high on adrenaline right now.

50:08So it's, you know, it's a process.

50:10Once I calm down, I'm sure I'm going to feel all the bumps and bruises.

50:13What's my name?

50:15C.F. Paul!

50:16C.F. Paul!

50:18If you grow up loving wrestling and watching, you want to be that guy.

50:23You want to accomplish the boyhood dream.

50:25You want to be those guys who are picked and put in that position.

50:30And I was tonight.

50:38And that last match gets done.

50:41And you sit back in your chair and you go, man, that was awesome.

50:53The opportunity has never been bigger for talent to create a moment for yourself no matter what we give you.

51:00Congratulations.

51:01Thank you so much to everyone.

51:02Thanks for that.

51:03I really appreciate it.

51:04That was fun.

51:05Yeah.

51:06I wasn't jealous at all.

51:07Not at all.

51:08Not at all.

51:09To make it yours, to own it, there's opportunity right now for everybody on the card.

51:18We're going to allow you to spread your wings.

51:21And if you hit it right, and that connects with people, we're going to run with it.

51:29And you always have the opportunity to get yourself to that next level.

51:33The greatest of all time is here.

51:38And the road to WrestleMania begins.

51:42John Cena has been the ultimate good guy in WWE.

51:46And wouldn't it be great if John Cena turned heel?

51:48The hardest thing is keeping secrets.

51:50And just one big attack.

51:53I'll make this my real job.

51:55I got to quit the rat business.

51:57Oh, my God!

51:58You ate it right on your neck.

51:59Are you okay?

52:00I hate that it just got taken away because I felt like it was just getting started.

52:05But the story is never really over.

52:07When one ends, a whole new one begins.

52:09Isn't that the job?

52:10To make the biggest stars possible?

52:12Hell yeah!

52:13It's all working.

52:14It pushes on you.

52:20It does get to a level where it is decimal points that separates you and makes you stand out.

52:26That's all I ever wanted to do.

52:28I just did it.

52:29I fucking did it.

52:30Side plane!

52:31Side plane!
