00:00Well, there he is, that's the Viper responsible for what we just saw.
00:19You know, we want to send out our best wishes to Batista,
00:22hoping for a speedy recovery, but that man right there.
00:25Well, the question is, is Randy Orton invincible?
00:29That question is asked and will they try to answer it in the latest edition of WWE Magazine,
00:34which is available everywhere tomorrow.
00:36Randy Orton is on the cover.
00:37The only question is, is will Randy Orton be holding the WWE Championship after tonight?
00:42They may have to reshoot the cover if that's the case.
00:45Orton wants his title back, he said it earlier on.
00:49Well, I don't know about invincible, but it's certainly remorseless.
00:53You can tell by that smug look on his face.
00:56Randy Orton losing the WWE Championship to Batista inside a steel cage back at Extreme Rules.
01:02So upset about it, we saw moments ago the elaborate plan that Orton set up to try to steal,
01:08to try to heist the championship.
01:10And it turned out to be much more than that.
01:13It turned out to be a devastating injury to the team.
01:16Well, there's some Big Show.
01:18Oh, there's some Big Bad Show tonight.
01:24Oh, baby, come on.
01:26He is the world's largest athlete.
01:29He's seven feet tall, nearly 500 pounds.
01:32And John Cena touched on it earlier tonight.
01:34Big Show is an angry giant that Randy Orton has to deal with among the others in this matchup.
01:40Well, you're right about that.
01:42Big Show wants that WWE Championship probably as much as anyone in this match.
01:46And he don't mind hurting people to get it.
01:48He's been embarrassed over the past couple of weeks by John Cena.
01:52Losing to John Cena in a submission match at Extreme Rules.
01:55Just last week, he was hit in the head a couple of times by Miz with a steel chair.
02:01The WWE Universe is on its feet for John Cena.
02:17And, King, after what we've seen transpire, after what this man has accomplished over the past couple of weeks,
02:24you seem to get the feeling that tonight could be the night for John Cena.
02:29I had an opportunity to speak to John earlier today, and I can tell you this.
02:33He feels that tonight is the night.
02:36He made that man, the Big Show, tap out in a submission match at Extreme Rules.
02:41In a matchup that no one gave John Cena a chance to win.
02:46It's all about the game.
03:16And now you play it, it's all about control.
03:18And if you can take it, it's all about your debt.
03:21And if you can pay it, it's all about pain.
03:24The game is back.
03:29For the first time since being hooked into the head by Randy Orton at Backlash, Triple H is in action.
03:41With his sights set on Randy Orton and his sights set on becoming a 14-time champion.
03:51The look on Orton's face last week was priceless.
03:57His eyes, his eyes, his biggest saucers when he saw Triple H coming out of that ambulance.
04:04After him, after Orton.
04:06For Triple H, he must keep his emotions in check, cannot allow himself to focus only on Orton in this matchup.
04:13Because we are under fatal four-way rules.
04:26Introducing first, from West Newbury, Massachusetts, weighing in at 240 pounds, John Cena.
04:51Standing at seven feet tall, weighing in at 485 pounds, The Big Show.
05:04From St. Louis, Missouri, weighing in at 245 pounds, Randy Orton.
05:14And from Greenwich, Connecticut, weighing in at 255 pounds, Triple H.
05:27Some mighty combustible elements inside that ring.
05:33This is gonna be an explosion.
05:36That WWE Championship declared vacant after Batista was taken out of action last week.
05:42These four men will battle for that title here tonight, live on Monday Night Raw.
05:48And again, fatal four-way rules.
05:50First man to gain pin fall or submission will be champion.
05:54It's interesting how the personal issues have siphoned each other off in the early part of this matchup.
05:59Big Show and Cena, Orton, and Triple H.
06:01Watch out here.
06:02And Triple H wasting little time turning his assault to Randy Orton.
06:07He gotta get out of the way quickly, Michael.
06:09And Triple H.
06:11Meanwhile in the ring, it's John Cena and Big Show as Big Show tosses Cena across the ring as he went for the Bulldog.
06:22Who will be WWE Champion?
06:25The Fatal 4-Way continues live when Raw returns.
06:32We are back live on Monday Night Raw.
06:34This is to declare a new WWE Championship.
06:37Randy Orton, Triple H, Big Show, and John Cena in a Fatal 4-Way matchup.
06:42And again, Kane, the rules are simple.
06:44First man to gain pin fall or submission is the new champion.
06:47And Randy Orton has certainly turned things around now.
06:49He has got Triple H in a world of trouble.
06:52And the Big Show at the same time has Cena down.
06:55And again, what's interesting in this matchup is the two personal issues that divide themselves.
06:59Big Show and John Cena working against each other on one side of the ring.
07:02Orton and Triple H in the other.
07:03Almost two matches going on at the same time.
07:06And there will be a new WWE Champion at the conclusion of this match.
07:11One of these four superstars is gonna be the new champ.
07:14And look at Big Show, the seven-foot, 500-pounder.
07:17And Randy Orton assaulting Triple H, who rolls out of the way as well.
07:21If you're just joining us, Monday Night Raw started at 8 o'clock Eastern tonight.
07:25Part of the WWE three-for-all.
07:27Three championship matches.
07:30The second of three here in this matchup.
07:33And look at Triple H focusing on the Big Show.
07:36John Cena, back with a 500-pounder down.
07:51Now you've eliminated Big Show from the equation.
07:53Orton's eliminated from the equation.
07:55It's down to John Cena and Triple H for the moment.
07:59And we just saw Cena and the game work together.
08:02Like you said, for the moment.
08:04But now there's a face-off.
08:05It's every man for himself in a fatal four-way match.
08:09With the coveted WWE Championship on the line.
08:15There must be a winner here tonight.
08:22Here they go.
08:25Triple H's first in-ring action.
08:27He's being taken out back in April at Backlash.
08:29Looks like he hasn't missed the beat.
08:31But there's John Cena.
08:32Flying shoulder.
08:33And Cena's beginning to roll.
08:34Look out!
08:38Well, Cena seems to be on a roll right now.
08:44Telling the game, you can't see me.
08:48And it's time for a five-knuckle shuffle.
08:49No way!
08:50But Triple H sees Cena!
08:52Huge spine buster!
08:58Going for the pedigree!
08:59Triple H!
09:00And John Cena counters for the attitude adjustment!
09:03And Big Show takes both men down!
09:05And Randy Orton looking to again focus his assault on Triple H.
09:11Orton slithered into the ring.
09:12I thought he was going for a pinfall there.
09:14A cover at least on Triple H.
09:16Well, remember it was Triple H last week who thwarted Orton's plan to basically steal the WWE title.
09:23Hence the reason it's vacant tonight following the injury of Batista.
09:27Suddenly Orton has turned his venom toward Triple H's Big Show.
09:34Targets John Cena, the man who's humiliated him for a number of months.
09:39Most recently at Extreme Rules, getting Big Show to tap out.
09:43Look at Randy Orton.
09:44He was so vicious.
09:46We saw those gruesome photos of the surgery that Batista had to have this past week,
09:52thanks to the injury suffered at the hands of Randy Orton.
09:55And the rest of Legacy.
09:57Again, fatal four-way matchup.
09:59Orton is targeting Triple H, and Big Show is wearing down John Cena.
10:04First man to score a pinfall or submission will win this matchup.
10:13Look at Cena.
10:14And the WWE title, and it could be Big Show.
10:16Big Show into the cover, two count.
10:18Orton breaks it up.
10:19John Cena trying to lift, trying to actually body slam the Big Show with it.
10:28Near 500 pounds, just too much.
10:31Orton perhaps eating the warning from Cena earlier on tonight.
10:36You got an angry giant on your hands.
10:39Oh, no.
10:42And look at both Cena and Triple H in trouble.
10:45Going for a double chokeslam perhaps.
10:48Hey, how about a double?
10:49Because it's dead.
10:50And Big Show's in trouble.
10:52And Orton back in.
10:55Oh, that opportunistic snake, Randy Orton.
10:58Look at Orton, look at Orton, measuring Big Show.
11:01Is he thinking about putting the Big Show?
11:02Same thing he's done to Triple H.
11:04Look at Big Show countered, countered the putt by Orton.
11:07It looked like Orton hesitated for just a moment, and Big Show made it pay.
11:12Ladies and gentlemen, this is Monday Night Raw.
11:16We are live in Charlotte, North Carolina.
11:19A fatal four-way matchup underway for the vacant WWE Championship.
11:25First man to gain pinfall or submission will become the WWE Champion.
11:31And what a match this is, and what a Raw this has already been.
11:34We've been on the air for over an hour now.
11:36With an early start tonight, we found out that the Raw franchise has been sold.
11:42We have a new owner.
11:44Mr. McMahon is sold wrong, we're gonna find out who the new owner is when this match concludes.
11:48Look out.
11:49Randy Orton physically taken out by Big Show, who has been dominating this matchup.
11:56The back of Orton's head slammed into our announce table.
11:58I don't think there's one person who's gonna feel sorry for him.
12:01And not only a new owner, King, as you mentioned, but
12:07at the end of this matchup, we're gonna have a new WWE Champion.
12:11And that may be coming very soon.
12:13500 pounds crushing John Cena.
12:16Cena's squash.
12:17And Randy Orton again saving the matchup.
12:19Remember, first man to gain pinfall or submission.
12:23But I believe Big Show's gonna make Orton pay again.
12:26And what a spear.
12:29Like a locomotive running you down.
12:33Big Show, is he gonna be the new champion?
12:36And a kick out by Triple H in two.
12:38How did the game kick out of that?
12:40You're right.
12:41I don't think I've ever seen the Big Show deliver a spear.
12:45Watch this.
12:46Watch this impact.
12:48And now, especially after knocking the wind out of your lungs like that,
12:54you gotta start questioning the stamina of Triple H.
12:57He hasn't been in action in weeks and weeks, a couple of months.
13:00This is for the WWE Championship.
13:02Big Show looking to put Triple H away.
13:04Who rolls out of the way?
13:06Randy Orton slithering into the ring.
13:09Can the Viper capitalize?
13:11Big Show in trouble.
13:14And a block by Big Show.
13:17How strong is the Big Show?
13:19Triple H, and the game looks to build momentum.
13:23Pedigree, Pedigree, Pedigree.
13:26Triple H is gonna do it.
13:28The game's gonna do it.
13:30Now, is it gonna be Cena?
13:32Attitude adjustment.
13:35Cena looks to win the WWE title and a kick out by the Big Show.
13:40What a match.
13:42What a match we're witnessing.
13:44All the marbles on the line, the WWE title.
13:47And John Cena, can he do it?
13:49Lift the 500 power up, he does it.
13:51Big Show's in trouble.
13:53Unbelievable.
13:54Attitude adjustment by Cena.
13:56Unbelievable.
13:57Can Cena capitalize?
13:58That's the leg.
13:59And Orton again saving the match up for himself.
14:02Watch it.
14:03Oh.
14:04Cena shoulder first.
14:05Cena's out of the ring.
14:06Triple H's out of the ring.
14:07RKO to the Big Show.
14:09Randy Orton into the cover.
14:11Orton does it again.
14:13Orton wins the WWE title.
14:16My gosh.
14:17Here is your winner and the new WWE Champion, Randy Orton.
14:26Randy Orton is now a five-time WWE Champion.
14:32Randy Orton took advantage of damage done by both Triple H and John Cena to capture the title.
14:39The title.
14:43Carnage all over the ring area in the ring.
14:47Cena laid up against our announce table.
14:51Triple H just still trying to pick himself up from outside.
14:56Big Show laid out in the ring.
14:58And Randy Orton once again, the WWE Champion.
15:02I don't like Triple H and John Cena have any idea what just transpired here.
15:07We really thought Triple H had won the championship here.
15:10A pedigree on the world's largest athlete.
15:13And that should have done it.
15:14The game just didn't have time to cover the Big Show.
15:18Until the attitude adjustment delivered from Cena.
15:23These final four-ways were delivered to John Cena had it.
15:25But as Randy Orton's M.O. has been throughout his career, Randy Orton would take advantage.
15:32John Cena did the damage here.
15:34But watch as Randy Orton seized the moment.
15:38You're right.
15:42Slamming Cena shoulder first and then the RKO.
15:47The Big Show face first into the mat and that was it.
15:52Randy Orton wins this fatal four-way and what a match.
15:58Randy Orton is again the WWE Champion.
16:02And the looks on the face of John Cena, the face of Triple H tell the story.
16:07Big Show stunned as well.
16:10The game, look at the game glaring up at the new WWE Champion.
