Transcript

00:00The following contest is scheduled for one call.

00:26Introducing first, from Bulgaria waiting for 270 pounds, Rusev.

00:37Corey, you ready for what Sheamus will call a banger?

00:41No doubt about it, two of the heaviest hitters in the game ready to run it back one more time.

00:49Consider this your official banger warning next.

00:53Again, Rusev overall in his career a three and one in singles matches versus Sheamus.

01:09But they're one and one over the past couple of matchups.

01:13Consider this something of a rubber match in this budding rivalry.

01:16Two long-time close friends turned bitter rivals.

01:32Again, want to remind everyone that Clash in Paris and Monday Night Raw are coming to the Defense Arena in Paris, France Sunday, August 31st and Monday, September 1st.

01:42Combo tickets are on sale now via Ticketmaster.

01:46So Rusev gets set to go into a physical war with the Celtic warrior Sheamus tonight.

01:51On a night where we've already learned, Corey, we're gonna have a World Heavyweight Championship match, Rollins and Night.

01:56Great decision by General Manager Adam Pearce, forcing Rollins to defend his gold here tonight in Brooklyn.

02:04And let's not forget, Dirty Dominic Mysterio, our fearless Intercontinental Champion, gonna step in the ring with Dragon Lee of the LWO.

02:12What did he call himself?

02:14The King of the Luchadores.

02:22Rusev says, come on, Sheamus.

02:24I'm sick of waiting for you.

02:25Let's get this fight on.

02:27We are just as excited to watch these two throw down yet again.

02:32Buckle up, grit your teeth.

02:35Well, you know, at SummerSlam this past weekend, people around the world shocked.

03:44Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

03:53ROOLLING!

04:02And Wednesday Adams returns to Prowl, the gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await.

04:24Creators, showrunners Alfred Goff, and Miles Miller return for the spine-tingling second season of Wednesday,

04:31alongside executive producer and director, Tim Burton.

04:39And there he is, the host of the Joe Budden Podcast.

04:43World famous rapper Joe Budden in the house tonight in Brooklyn.

04:57It's Fight Night!

05:01Baby!

05:05His opponent, from Dublin, Ireland, Sheamus!

05:17And Sheamus wasted little time heading to the ring and we're underway.

05:20This one is gonna be an all-out war.

05:22Remember what happened last week, Corey?

05:24Sheamus knocking off Grayson Waller, Rusev would again get it wrong.

05:27Rusev viciously attacking the Celtic Warrior with Sheamus' own shillelagh.

05:32Sheamus very eager, as is Rusev, to mix it up once again.

05:36No absence of malice in this one tonight.

05:39And now, Rusev just mounting Sheamus and hammering away with the right hands.

05:43Again, this is such a deep, personal, intense rivalry.

05:47We've talked about it a number of times, Corey.

05:49It dates back to Rusev leaving WWE back in 2019.

05:53Rusev believed that he did what he had to do in his career and Sheamus abandoned him as a result.

05:58Whereas Sheamus believes every man is good enough to stand on their own two feet.

06:03Rusev no exception.

06:04Tonight, Sheamus looking to settle this score once and for all.

06:07And now, Sheamus sending Rusev up over the top rope to the floor.

06:11Through their last several encounters,

06:14these two have redefined the term brutality as pertains to WWE action.

06:20And Rusev with a kick right to the midsection, dropping Sheamus to a knee.

06:24Celtic Warrior got a little over-eager and nearly sent through the barricade by the Bulgarian.

06:30Rusev just an intense look on his face, driving Sheamus back into the ring.

06:39It's odd that this relationship became so sour, Corey.

06:46These men were very, very close a decade ago.

06:49I think it all boils down to Rusev's unique world view in that he believes he

06:54returned to WWE so that the rest of the roster could learn from his mistakes.

06:59Rusev believes he returned to WWE for the betterment of the industry.

07:05Whether or not anybody else views that to be the case.

07:07Sheamus does it as Rusev pulls his way into Sheamus and

07:11drives him toward the corner.

07:13We're at the Barclays Center tonight.

07:16Brooklyn, Monday Night Raw, the Raw after SummerSlam.

07:21And what a kick by Rusev, again dropping Sheamus.

07:24You can hear the WWE Universe tonight in Brooklyn,

07:28obviously not feeling any hangover from SummerSlam.

07:31What a weekend it was.

07:33Barclays Center here, speaking of SummerSlam back in 2015.

07:37Sheamus with a great matchup and a win over the Apex Predator Randy Orton on that night.

07:43Look at this, just blatant disrespect from Rusev stomping on the face of a fallen Celtic warrior.

07:51Rusev's hungry, Corey.

07:52It's been six years since he's held a championship here in WWE that the United States title.

07:58And what an uppercut by Rusev.

08:01Well, you'd have to imagine, it's safe to say that Rusev has designs on holding gold again here in WWE.

08:06But right now, priority one is disposing of Sheamus.

08:10Yeah, Sheamus a four-time world champion.

08:14Rusev again dropping Sheamus, this time with a knee to the midsection.

08:18Well, one thing's for sure, since returning to WWE,

08:20Rusev's gotten himself perhaps in the best physical condition of his career.

08:23He's a little lighter than he was his first run.

08:26Sheamus looks great as well.

08:29No doubt about it.

08:31The Celtic warrior now trying to lift Rusev up on his shoulders.

08:35No, no, not a white noise from here.

08:38This will end, Rusev wants it for all.

08:41From the second rope, a noise to Rusev.

08:45Sheamus might have taken a little out of himself in the process.

08:58A bit of a rough landing for the Celtic warrior,

09:01landed awkwardly on his hip while delivering white noise from the middle rope.

09:05But Rusev is in pain.

09:07Corey, I'm still trying to figure out the psyche of these two.

09:11Why do you wanna go into the ring each and every night and beat the hell out of each other like this?

09:15Well, listen, you've known Sheamus longer than I have.

09:17And one thing is absolutely certain about the Celtic warrior, he lives for the fight.

09:22It makes Sheamus feel alive.

09:24Sheamus believes it's his purpose on this planet to fight, to be a gladiator, to be a juggernaut.

09:30Well, Rusev probably believes the same thing as well.

09:36Sheamus blocked that, delivered a right hand right on the chin, dropping Rusev to his knees.

09:40Hey, get out, get out, get out, get out, get out.

09:42Sheamus flexing a little creditor action at the expense of Rusev.

09:50Using the near five count from our official Rod Zapata.

09:54Sheamus with a runny knee.

09:57Right under the chin of Rusev, the Celtic warrior now making the climb to the top turnbuckle.

10:01Sheamus off the top rope and down goes Rusev.

10:05Sheamus to the cover now, hooks the leg, is it enough?

10:08Rusev kicks out.

10:10It's amazing how evenly matched these two men are as well.

10:13Both superstars possess knockout power in their hands, in their feet.

10:18Unbelievable athleticism on display by Rusev.

10:22Again, Rusev will go to the cover, this time in an air fall on Sheamus.

10:25Yeah, for two men that weigh around 270 pounds, Corey, they are so agile.

10:35Late athletic ability.

10:36For a long time, Rusev referred to himself as the super athlete.

10:40And it looks to be more true now than ever before, this rake in the back of Sheamus.

10:47That is just flat out brutal.

10:50Driving his shoulder into the midsection of Sheamus.

10:54Every single blow from these two men is just malice filled.

10:58No doubt about it.

10:59It's like swinging cinder blocks at the ends of their arms.

11:02Knockout power possessed by both superstars.

11:05Incredible chins on one another to be able to last as long.

11:08And what stands out most to me about Sheamus and Rusev, in particular,

11:11are the gas tanks on these men.

11:13For floating around 270, 280 pounds apiece, these guys can go.

11:18Stamina is absolutely incredible as Rusev now looks to wear Sheamus down, chin lock is in.

11:23And this is a smart strategy by Rusev, allows him to recollect his thoughts

11:28while simultaneously inflicting punishment on Sheamus.

11:32His massive arms wrapped around the chin of the Celtic warrior.

11:35Sheamus trying to fight out of this, but Rusev with his entire frame in control of Sheamus here.

11:43Sheamus has got to do something to fight back into this match.

11:46Five, three, go!

11:48And we are back at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, Monday Night Raw on Netflix Live tonight.

12:01This has been a physical battle as we expected.

12:04Rusev and Sheamus, recent matchups tied at a win apiece.

12:07And Sheamus, well, a smile on his face as he continues to absorb this punishment.

12:12All right, we're gonna make sure you saw the same thing I did, Cole.

12:15Sheamus is asking for more.

12:17And Rusev saying, what is wrong with this guy?

12:20Kick right to the chest, and another one.

12:23And Sheamus is feeding off the pain.

12:26Come on!

12:35Got caught.

12:37And Sheamus with a body shot.

12:39And here comes the Celtic warrior.

12:40Yeah!

12:42And an Irish curse backbreaker.

12:47And once again, a smile washing over the face of Sheamus, who is in his element right now.

12:53There is nowhere the Celtic warrior would rather be than in this moment,

12:58engaged in combat with someone as dangerous as Rusev.

13:01Just bulldozes through Rusev.

13:04And now Sheamus has Rusev where he wants him.

13:10Went for the ten beats of the Valorant, and Rusev hung Sheamus up on the top rope.

13:17Rusev's an intelligent competitor, obviously learning from past experience against Sheamus.

13:21And he ducks underneath the brogue kick by Sheamus.

13:24Sheamus tried to catch himself, but to no avail.

13:27Still beat Rusev to the punch.

13:30Will he get what he wants this time around?

13:32Powering, Rusev.

13:34Rusev trying to power out.

13:36Sheamus trying to hook the arms in the ropes.

13:38Rusev won't allow it to happen.

13:39And now, spine first off the post goes Sheamus.

13:43Sheamus is hurt.

13:49Right here beside our commentary table, the Celtic warrior slowly making his way back to

13:55his feet, but Rusev now stalking Sheamus.

13:58Well, look out Graves, look out Graves.

14:00Sheamus now slamming Rusev right on our table.

14:03And into the ring now to break the count.

14:15Our official understanding how personal this rivalry has become.

14:19Exercise a little leeway, but Sheamus sent into the steel ring stairs.

14:24Yeah, Sheamus, shoulder first into the stairs here at ringside.

14:35The official now at a count of four.

14:38Rusev just dumped out in the WWE universe, but now the Bulgarian brute from behind.

14:47And now Rusev delivering his own version of the 10 beats of the Bowling to Sheamus.

14:54A little insult with injury from Rusev.

14:59One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, five, ten.

15:11Well, the both of these men are gonna be counted out, I believe,

15:14as Sheamus continues to pound the way on Rusev.

15:17Be careful, Ron.

15:18Sheamus turned around in a fury and

15:24realized it was Ron Zapata, our referee, who had no choice but to throw this one out.

15:30Now we've got officials and agents coming down here.

15:32It is chaos out here, Cole.

15:34Trying to separate these men, Sheamus is throwing people all over the place.

15:38And now Rusev still sticks off the face of Sheamus.

15:50Chaos at ringside.

15:52Now Rusev has the shillelagh once again.

15:57Imagine the damage he can do with the shillelagh.

15:59Sheamus drops Rusev and outmounds Rusev, and the fight continues.

16:05Let him fight.

16:06I don't think we're gonna have any choice.

16:10Good guy, good guy.

16:11There's an absolute melee at ringside.

16:18Look at Rusev's eyes, Cole.

16:20He looks crazed, rabid.

16:28Sheamus, uh-oh, Rusev's free again.

16:30Thomas Rusev, and the fight continues.

16:33Get in between these two at your own peril, guys.

16:36You're gonna need a hole in my PD precinct down here.

16:42These two have lost it.
