WWE Raw _Aug 04, 2025 - Penta Vs Grayson Waller
Transcript
00:00Hey, Kofi, Woods, Big G versus Sheamus.
00:10Where were you guys last week, huh?
00:12I know exactly where you were, you were backstage watching.
00:16Let me learn the lesson on my own and that's what real veterans do.
00:18That's what family does, I appreciate you guys.
00:21We know that you're on cloud nine right now and
00:23you should be happy because you dropped theory.
00:25But us, we're still mourning man.
00:27I'm sorry, I know we look like it.
00:29The epitome of perfect chocolate decadence.
00:33But in our hearts, our souls, our minds, we're still hurting.
00:37And we're just not in the state of mind to fight anybody.
00:39Especially not Sheamus.
00:40Especially not Sheamus.
00:41Not Sheamus.
00:42And we're just not gonna be in the right state of mind until we get back our
00:46tag team championships.
00:49And it's all his fault.
00:51That bald headed tyrant refuses to give us what we deserve.
00:54Piersy, hey, I got this.
00:57Go ahead, go.
00:58Hey, Piers.
00:59Yeah.
01:00We need to talk now.
01:01Did Sheamus scramble your brain?
01:04I'm talking to Penta.
01:05I'll be with you in a minute.
01:06I don't care who you're talking to.
01:07Baldi, I'm representing the New Day, the greatest tag team of all time.
01:10Combined, we have 14 time tag team champions.
01:13So show some respect to the grieving process and
01:15give us our tag team title rematch.
01:17And stop worrying about this little lucha loser.
01:18Hey.
01:19Whoa, no, it's not a problem.
01:20Listen, Waller, do me a favor.
01:21You tell New Day that Baldy said they can have a match when they earn it.
01:27As a matter of fact, Penta and I were talking about a match.
01:29And I think you just officially earned it tonight.
01:34Hey, if you start the end, it's done, it's official.
01:38Hey, no one just- Hey, go.
01:40Listen, settle.
01:43Okay, no stress, see you there.
01:50Okay, what do you say?
01:52How'd it go?
01:52He was saying he, maybe next week, I don't know.
01:55Did he give a date?
01:56No, he didn't give a date, he's bald, he doesn't understand dates.
01:58No, soon.
02:00I like this version of Adam Pearce, our general manager.
02:04That was earlier today, the matchup is now.
02:22The following contest is scheduled for one throw.
02:31Introducing first, from the custom tech, Mexico,
02:37weighted at 87 kilos, Penta.
02:43So once again, Grayson Waller stuck his chewing in his mouth.
02:49I think you're referring to Big G, Cole.
02:52Sorry, Big G.
02:54This is a very difficult time for all of the New Day.
02:58He's not a part of the New Day, I don't believe, at least not yet.
03:02Waller, Penta, live, Monday Night Raw on Netflix.
03:22So Penta set for one-on-one action here tonight against Grayson Waller.
03:30And listen to this place, the reaction for Penta.
03:41And with very good reason, always a thrilling experience watching Penta do what he does.
03:51You know, Corey, you've become the voice of Triple A, so I'm going to allow you to do this.
03:56Well, good.
03:57Credit to myself, Triple Mania, Triple A's biggest show of the year emanating live from Arena CDMX in Mexico City.
04:06We'll be live Saturday, August 16th, 9 p.m. Eastern, 6 p.m. in the West.
04:11And we broadcast live in both English and Spanish on our WWE YouTube channel.
04:17Do not miss Triple Mania in less than two weeks.
04:21Hey, Dirty Dom's gonna be involved, right?
04:23That's right, the King of the Luchadores has an opportunity to become Triple A Mega Champion in a Fatal 4-Way.
04:30We'll talk about that a little bit later as Dirty Dom competes one-on-one against Dragon Lee,
04:35another superstar who has earned entry into that matchup.
04:39But right now, it's about Lucha Extrema as Penta is set for action.
04:46Such a joy to watch Penta, explosiveness.
04:52WWE fans have really taken to Penta as he struggles to get his gear off.
05:01Happened to the best of us, Cole.
05:03Maybe he fears his gear.
05:05The one thing in life.
05:07Be careful.
05:08I wouldn't let Penta hear you saying that.
05:11I love Penta.
05:12How do you make one of the coolest superstars on the roster even cooler?
05:21You let him make his entrance to the tasty sounds of Adam Jones,
05:25legendary guitar player from Tools.
05:29Speaking of the Tools.
05:30One night only, folks.
05:36I spent all weekend at my daughter's softball tournament.
05:39Makes sense, I'm lobbing them to you tonight.
05:41And his opponent, from Sydney, Australia,
05:46weighing in at 204 pounds, Grayson Waller.
05:54So I can't wait to hear you break down this burgeoning relationship between Grayson
06:00Waller, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods.
06:03I think it's really a matter of shared grievance.
06:07A lot of emotional turmoil on all parts.
06:09We'll talk about this more in a minute.
06:12We'll talk about this more in a minute.
06:16We'll talk about this more in a minute.
06:18Two champions, one night boxing's biggest names collide on Saturday, September 13th, with
06:23Canelo Alvarez.

06:39Well, here on Monday Night Raw, live on Netflix, we celebrate this past weekend's SummerSlam.
06:48Man!
07:04I'm with this s*** to run, but whatever, yeah.
07:08I know I'm too infini.
07:13I know somebody want me.
07:14And this is the Monday Night Raw after SummerSlam Live.
07:24Barclays Center, jam-packed here tonight.
07:26Brooklyn, New York.
07:27Penta and Grayson Waller.
07:28This matchup made by our general manager, Adam Pearce, earlier today.
07:32After Grayson Waller not only disrespected the GM, but also Penta.
07:37Big G's manning up to stand on his own and backing up.
07:40Okay, explain to everyone why he's being called Big G.
07:44I mean, have you seen Grayson Waller?
07:46He's in the greatest physical condition of his career.
07:48He's been running around with New Day, who used to have a big, what was it?
07:51Big E.
07:53I worked with him this weekend.
07:54I'm sorry.
07:56But yeah, so there's obviously a void.
07:58The New Day are going through an incredibly tough time, a long period of grieving.
08:02They're mourning the death of the tag team division, the loss of their tag team championships.
08:07There's a lot on the minds of both Kingston and Woods.
08:09And Big G has just been here to be a shoulder to cry on, if you will.
08:13Well, Xavier said that the group is still in mourning, that they are in no state of mind
08:17to fight.
08:17So they asked Grayson Waller to go over to Adam Pearce and perhaps get them a future
08:22tag title opportunity.
08:23I think, unfortunately, Big G wasn't prepared for operations as smooth as delivered
08:29by Penta.
08:30And Penta now with a Rana since Grayson Waller outside the ring.
08:35I think Big G's just doing his best to be a good friend to Woods.
08:43Look at this.
08:45Big smile on Waller's face.
08:48Thank God for the New Day.
08:51I mean, how does your heart not hurt a little bit for these guys, Cole?
09:02Have you no empathy?
09:03Well, I do, but at some point, the grieving period has to end, right?
09:07You gotta get over yourself, you gotta move on.
09:09Who are you to tell anybody when the grieving process is complete?
09:13What the heck is Woods wearing?
09:15He's incredibly sad.
09:17Is that a hat?
09:18Yes, it's a hat.
09:20And Waller now caught by Penta out there celebrating with the new day and
09:24forgot he had a matchup here against this top Luchador, Penta.
09:28Big kick in the corner, Rock.
09:31Kofi's, for some reason, angry at me.
09:33I don't quite understand.
09:34He's not angry, Cole.
09:35He's hurt.
09:36Uh-oh.
09:37He's hurt.
09:37Look out now.
09:38Look.
09:38Penta sent right into our announce table.
09:41Almost had to mourn the loss of us.
09:44Here comes Big G again.
09:46Oh, and Uncorked a club.
09:48Clothesline, and down goes Penta.
09:49You know what?
09:50Cole, I think I'm gonna see if the New Day want a little help grieving.
09:54Please.
10:01So you're inviting Kofi and Xavier Woods to join us on commentary.
10:05I'm extending an olive branch, yes.
10:07I think it would be an honor to have perhaps the greatest tag team of all time join us at
10:12commentary to offer their opinion on the goings on.
10:15Well, they're very opinionated, I will give you that.
10:18Welcome, Kofi.
10:19Yeah.
10:20Welcome, Mr. Woods.
10:21You thought you could just go ahead and talk trash without us coming out here to call you on it, right?
10:25I actually wasn't talking trash, I was just questioning what Xavier was wearing on his head.
10:29Questioning why?
10:31You've never looked this good a day in your life, Michael Cole.
10:33You're gonna question me.
10:33Nor has he ever been as sad as the two of you.
10:36And I would like to take this moment to offer my thoughts and prayers and condolences.
10:40Thank you so much for that, Corey.
10:41Thank you, Corey.
10:42Corey, let me get a hand.
10:42What about you, Michael?
10:44What about you, Michael?
10:45I wanna know why you're wearing driver gloves.
10:47Bro, we are the drivers of the tag team division.
10:49Inside cradle by Penta.
10:51And a kick out.
10:52I would like to commend you on offering moral support to Grayson Waller.
10:57Of course, of course.
10:58If you were by yourself in the WWE locker room, you would love to have two incredible veterans like ourselves,
11:03making sure that you're doing right, but it's our job to take care of these young guys out here.
11:07It's our job to be there for them when they're looking for guidance.
11:10So are you saying that Grayson Waller is actually part of the New Day now?
11:14Nobody said that.
11:15Look, you got a problem with trying to put a label on whatever what this is, man.
11:18It's us taking him under our wing as the veterans are supposed to do.
11:22That's right.
11:22Michael Cole, you're like Twitter.
11:23I could say, I like tomatoes, and everyone would say, what, hamburgers are disgusting?
11:27Well, he's running around calling himself Big G, I mean.
11:29So?
11:30Look at him, the man is in phenomenal shape.
11:32Well, there used to be a Big E in your group, where you dumped him, so.
11:35Yeah, we did.
11:37He didn't wanna come to work, so what?
11:38If you stopped coming to your job, you'd get fired too.
11:41That's why I've come to work every day for 28 years.
11:44Talk to your friend, tell him to come to work.
11:45Maybe he would still be here.
11:46Wow, wow, Michael.
11:49That was great commentary.
11:51I would like to- Hey, it's incredible.
11:52Over here.
11:53I'd like to focus on the positives if we could.
11:54Thank you so much.
11:55The power of positivity is still real.
11:57You know I've always been a long time New Day guy.
11:59I've always supported you in all of your endeavors.
12:00And I think that once you get through this very trying period in your lives,
12:05it's only a matter of time before you find the top of the mountain once again.
12:08Thank you so much.
12:09And I look forward to that.
12:09Thank you so much.
12:10So I wanna know actually how long this grieving process goes on.
12:14Well, there's no, you can't really put a date on it, and
12:16you can't put a time stamp on grieving.
12:17It's been like- How would you try to do that?
12:19Cover!
12:20Waller almost beat Penta there.
12:22Wow.
12:23Have you ever suffered, Michael?
12:24Have you looked into the bereavement policy here in WWE?
12:28Well, clearly, they refused to give us time off for the bereavement.
12:30But even if they did, we work hard enough every single day that we're gonna come-
12:34Wait a minute.
12:35Even though- You guys actually have the audacity to ask for
12:38time off because you lost your tag team championship.
12:40Yeah, because that's how much they mean to us.
12:41Exactly, Michael.
12:42They mean a lot to us.
12:43The absolute death of the tag team division- It means a lot to us.
12:45Because we're not at the top, it's painful to us.
12:48It hurts to watch as well.
12:49It hurts to watch, it hurts.
12:51Imagine how we feel.
12:52It's real pain.
12:59Well, the grieving process continues at ringside for the New Day as they watch
13:02Grayson Waller take on Penta here tonight, one on one.
13:06Kiss my hand, Michael, as a sign of respect.
13:08Why would I kiss your hand?
13:09Kiss my hand as a sign of respect.
13:11Can I do it on his behalf?
13:12Thank you so much, Cole.
13:13You see that?
13:14Your turn, Michael- Come on, he's right here.
13:16I'm calling the action, guys.
13:17Look at Penta now!
13:19With a backbreaker knee right to the spine.
13:22Unempathetic.
13:22It's part of your job, Michael, to understand the talent.
13:25And you refuse to understand us.
13:26You have no heart.
13:27You have a cold heart.
13:28Michael Cold, is how we call it.
13:30Michael Cold.
13:31Michael Cold, no heart.
13:32I had tremendous emotion when you lost- Don't sociopath.
13:34I had tremendous emotion when I- Like the Tin Man in the-
13:36Cover here by Penta.
13:38And a kick out by Waller.
13:39I had great emotion, guys, when I called your loss in the tag team title match.
13:42You see what I'm talking about?
13:43Wow.
13:44We are suffering.
13:45We are grieving.
13:46I would like to apologize personally on behalf of Michael
13:49Cole, our entire commentary team.
13:51Thank you so much for the apology.
13:52You do not deserve this.
13:53But he is the one who is sorry.
13:54About the sorriest man out here, man, with no empathy, no sympathy.
13:57No!
13:58What a right hand by Waller.
14:01The kid has got talent, man.
14:02I'm telling you, maybe if he was in your group, you'd win the tag titles back.
14:05Sit out, powerbomb.
14:06Shoulders down now.
14:08Penta's gotta kick out.
14:09Michael Cold, to be someone who doesn't wrestle regularly,
14:12you have a lot of opinions on what we should do to be successful in the ring.
14:15No, listen, hear me out, hear me out.
14:18Listening.
14:18You guys were at the most successful point in your career when you had three men
14:22in the new day.
14:22That's all.
14:23So maybe you should bring Grayson Waldron, make it three men again,
14:25and you'll be successful again.
14:26How are we at the most successful point when we weren't 13 time champions at that
14:29point, Michael?
14:30Tell me that.
14:30You see, Michael, you won once without Big E.
14:34And here we go, Waller now down.
14:35Shoulders, shoulders kick out.
14:37Our only win at WrestleMania was sans Big E, and you think that that's not impressive?
14:42How long have you been watching wrestling, Michael, with your arms crossed,
14:44not even excited about this current thing?
14:47What a kick by Penta.
14:48I'm excited about Penta, I'll tell you that.
14:50Maybe it's time to start getting excited about Big G.
14:52Come on, Grayson, the kid has got talent.
14:54The man is in phenomenal shape.
14:55What a knee by Waller.
14:57Dead weight.
14:58And now his career is going to the top.
15:02He's down 230-something pounds.
15:04I mean, that's gotta feel good.
15:05Left Austin Theory in the dust.
15:06Look at this guy, former tag team champion.
15:08What is he, Golden Gloves in Australia?
15:10Yeah, the Iron Survivor, he won the Iron Survivor match in NXT.
15:14And he was on Survivor.
15:15You see, so it's no, it shouldn't be a surprise that he survived the dead weight
15:19that was Austin Theory.
15:20You know, look at him.
15:21Have you offered him a job yet?
15:23He's got a job.
15:24He's got a job right here, look at him.
15:25Doing it right now.
15:26His job is putting his foot in.
15:27Athlete.
15:28And Penta.
15:30No.
15:31Unbelievable, Penta cover for the win.
15:40How incredible is that?
15:43All right, all right, that was nasty.
15:44Penta!
15:48So did Waller pass the test?
15:50There was no test.
15:51Waller's out here doing his job.
15:52Out here trying to climb the ranks as he should be.
15:54Well, again, thanks to The New Day for joining us here tonight,
15:59taking time out of their bereavement process.
16:02As Grayson Waller delivered a great knee to Penta.
16:04Both men were down.
16:06Critical point of the matchup here.
16:08Watch this kick by Penta.
16:09Bang, right in the face of Corey.
16:11This is incredible.
16:12The closing moments, a breathtaking Mexican Destroyer delivered by Penta.
16:17Spiking Big G on top of his skull and a big win for Penta.
16:23Penta's so impressive here tonight on Monday Night Raw as he continues to soar in WWE.
16:47Put your little dare up.
16:50Would you wanna see some real metal?
16:52Whoa!
16:53Whoa!
16:56Penta taking advantage of a morning New Day.
17:01Sending Kingston and Woods to the outside.
17:06No, no, no, no.
17:07It looks much better on Penta.
17:17Penta flies.
17:30What a win, what a night for Penta.
17:37Well, they got something else to mourn about.
