00:00Then, now, forever, together.
00:30Then, now, forever, together.
01:00As the WWE is right in the thick of another memorable European tour.
01:08Tomorrow night, it's all about the energy for Clash in Paris.
01:12Welcome to Main Event.
01:21The following contest is scheduled for one call.
01:26Introducing first, from Dublin, Ireland.
01:30Lyra Valkyria!
01:34Getting the action started with the resilient and mystical warrior.
01:37Who's looking to add another feather of victory to her collection right here today.
01:42We welcome you in, Blake Howard, alongside the voice of NXT, Vic Joseph.
01:46Vic, I know you're still feeling the heat from last weekend at Heatwave.
01:48Certainly am excited to be here with you, ready to get the action underway.
01:52And these are two superstars I'm very familiar with.
01:55The first being Lyra Valkyria, a former NXT Women's Champion.
02:02As Lyra has certainly had an incredible couple years here in the WWE.
02:05Vic, her opponent tonight, can certainly match one of those accolades.
02:08Certainly can, and you know what, I think a lot of people have been sleeping on Kairi Sane.
02:13And her opponent, accompanied by Asuka, representing the Kabuki Warriors, Kairi Sane!
02:41Well, from the battlefield to the high seas, as the Pirate Princess set for action.
02:47Both superstars certainly looking to make some noise, get the attention of Raw General Manager Adam Kearse.
02:51But as we talked about, Vic, two former NXT Women's Champions set for battle.
02:56They're two very decorated individuals throughout their time in WWE.
03:00I don't want to get it twisted.
03:01You're looking at Kairi Sane and Asuka, former WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
03:05You're talking about someone in Lyra Valkyria, who is a former WWE Women's Intercontinental Champion.
03:11So there's a lot at stake here with these two women.
03:13Because if you start to dig deeper, Blake, you start to think about championship pictures.
03:18You start thinking about championship contention moving on here through 2025.
03:23And of course, the situation around the Women's World Championship, a bit cloudy right now.
03:27So a lot at stake for both superstars.
03:29A lot at stake, too, for General Manager of Monday Night Raw, Adam Kearse.
03:32I mean, there's a lot on his plate.
03:34It just seems that every week there's more thrown onto his back.
03:37He, though, has done a phenomenal job at handling all the superstars, all the situation that's been thrown his way.
03:44But I am very interested to see what happens with the Women's World Championship Mondays on Raw.
03:50Talk about the jockeying for position in the tag team ranks that Adam Kearse has to deal with on a weekly basis.
03:55And now right here, as we're looking at two potential contenders for the Women's World Championship here.
04:02As the bell sounds are underway, Vic.
04:04But going back to some championship contention, how much frustration is Lyra feeling after being unable to recapture that Women's Intercontinental title at SummerSlam for Becky Lee?
04:13Well, wouldn't you be frustrated?
04:14Of course.
04:14I mean, there'd be frustration in going through your blood, too, right?
04:17It'd be boiling a little bit.
04:18So she's got to go out here and do what she's done her whole career.
04:21Stay calm, stay cool, stay collected, focus on the task at hand, pick up a victory, and restart building momentum.
04:28That was, of course, a good one.
04:28And also hope that Nikki Bella can capture the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship so she could have another opportunity.
04:36Indeed, as Lyra, of course, could not get an opportunity at Becky Lynch.
04:39But in that matchup, Vic, what did she ultimately prove to her former mentor?
04:42I think she proved to her former mentor a long time ago that she's just as good, if not better.
04:47If you look at the win-loss record between the two, it's pretty good for Lyra Valkyrie.
04:51As Lyra looking to stay one step ahead of Kairi Sane right now.
04:54But, of course, in that matchup, we saw Lyra have her hands full.
04:58And seemingly now, Lyra's emotions, how do they currently sit as it relates to one band?
05:02I don't necessarily know that answer because, look, I don't like to speak for other individuals.
05:06I don't like to speak for other people.
05:08But when it comes to Lyra Valkyrie, she is someone who maybe wears her heart on her sleeve.
05:12She tells you how she feels as, right now, the WWE Universe reacting to Lyra Valkyrie.
05:17As Lyra, again, staying one step ahead of Kairi Sane.
05:21Big take down there.
05:22Here we go.
05:23Hooks the outside leg.
05:24Only gets one right now.
05:25But, Vic, flat out, if it wasn't for Bayley, would Lyra Valkyrie be the women's intercontinental champ?
05:30Well, I would like to think she would be.
05:32But as Booker T would tell you, woulda, coulda, shoulda.
05:36Don't really know the answer to that one.
05:38So let's not play hypotheticals.
05:39Let's just talk about the here and the now.
05:40There's no championship gold around her waist.
05:42And her opponent is also looking to get championship gold back around hers.
05:46That here and the now is Kairi Sane maintaining control, going to the top rope.
05:50We know how comfortable she is up there.
05:52Oh.
05:53Lyra charges in.
05:55You know, it's something else that we need to talk about with both these women.
05:57They have their eye on what's going on in NXT and the NXT women's division.
06:01We talk about a plethora of talent down there.
06:05We talk about two former NXT women's champions right here, Vic.
06:07Of course, in a couple of weeks, we return to the place that Kairi Sane made it all happen
06:12at full sail for a major homecoming.
06:15Big shot there to Lyra.
06:16Hooks the outside leg.
06:17And look, there's a lot going on with Kairi Sane too, Blake.
06:19I mean, all the drama surrounding EOS Sky, as we saw this past week on Raw,
06:24where is she?
06:24Where is her head at?
06:25Is right now, what's she trying to do?
06:28As Kairi Sane bringing Lyra Valkyria to the apron here, a very dangerous part of the ring.
06:32As Kairi tying Lyra up here, Vic.
06:39Oh!
06:40Yikes.
06:41That's certainly a shot that rings throughout the arena.
06:43I wish she'd come over here and do that to you.
06:45Why do you say that?
06:46Nah, it's just one of those days.
06:49As Lyra in a tough spot right now, and Kairi Sane, you see Asuka on the outside.
06:54Vic, they could be looking at a third women's tag title run.
06:56They could be, but right now Lyra Valkyria trying to block, trying to shift the momentum of momentum in this matchup.
07:03Able to create a little bit of separation, and let's see if Lyra's gonna fly.
07:07Some dangerous waters here!
07:09And Lyra dropping Kairi Sane.
07:13You see Asuka starting to cheer on her tag team partner.
07:15Gotta keep your eye on Asuka, though.
07:16She's starting to get a little too close.
07:19And now Lyra looking to add another feather to that collection right here, Vic.
07:22She's going all the way upstairs.
07:24Tired and acquired.
07:25Just like Kairi, very comfortable.
07:27Oh, no.
07:28But a big miss, and now Kairi looking to capitalize here.
07:32Miscalculation by Valkyria.
07:34And we know Sane looking to go to the top of the stacked Raw women's division.
07:37Alabama slam.
07:39Into the jet knife cover.
07:41And Lyra able to escape Vic.
07:42This one back and forth right here.
07:44A lot to prove for both superstars.
07:45We know we've talked about it already.
07:47When again in championship contention, I think also when you're Kairi Sane, when you're talking about Asuka as well,
07:53they're trying to send a message somewhat to Io Sky.
07:57They laid it down.
07:58Do not talk to, do not befriend, do not help Rhea Ripley.
08:03Maybe Kairi Sane let out a little extra aggression as this matchup goes on.
08:07But nice combination offense from Valkyria.
08:09We've certainly seen that tension between Asuka and Io Sky.
08:12You almost wonder, is Kairi Sane doing that damage control?
08:14Oh, damn.
08:15And there's a big spinning back fist into the cover.
08:18Will that do it?
08:18I don't know how Lyra Valkyria was able to kick out.
08:24I mean, that was flush.
08:26Talk about a stunner right there.
08:28But now Kairi, she might be looking to end things right here.
08:31Asuka echoing that sentiment.
08:34And now Kairi Sane looks to fly, Vic.
08:38Didn't work earlier for Lyra Valkyria.
08:40We'll see.
08:41It looked a little bit too much.
08:42I don't know how Lyra's back up.
08:44Sane is a genuine highlight reel here.
08:46Going for it all into the crossbody.
08:48But Lyra rolls through.
08:49Oh, nice change of momentum.
08:51Look at the power.
08:52Look at the strength.
08:53Channeling the spear of the Morgan here.
08:55Two.
08:56Knight.
08:57Wing.
08:58And add another feather to Lyra's collection.
09:01Here is your winner, Lyra Valkyria.
09:10That win doesn't just build momentum.
09:12It also lets Adam Pearce know, when the opportunity rises, I will soar.
09:19I will flourish.
09:20What a victory for Lyra Valkyria.
09:24Valkyria's back was against the wall, but the inaugural Women's Intercontinental Champion pulls it out.
09:28And now Lyra looks to refocus her sights on some more gold with another big win right here on Main Event.
09:35A great showing by Kyrie Sane, but Lyra Valkyria picks up the win in impressive fashion over the Pirate Princess.
09:45What a way to start off this week's Main Event, and there's still more ahead.
09:49Later tonight, the Celtic Warrior is in Dublin for a homecoming like no other.
09:54It's sure to be another banger, as Sheamus goes one-on-one with Pretty Deadly's Kit Wilson.
09:58But first, with The Vision running roughshod through Monday Night Raw, we have finally seen a group of superstars able to mount some resistance.
10:09Tonight, we are in Philadelphia.
10:12Main Event Jey Uso will go one-on-one with The Vision's Braun Breaker in an extreme rules match.
10:22Oh, yikes!
10:24Main Event Jey Uso now on the attack.
10:26The mission is crystal clear for that man, the badass of The Vision.
10:34Take out Jey Uso.
10:38Strap down, the dogs are out.
10:41Oh!
10:42Spam!
10:43Breaker is down!
10:46Uso splash!
10:48Cover on Breaker!
10:49Oh, Bronson Reed just holding a fist-line of the ring, and now pulling his way through Jey Uso and attacking Uso, and it's all legal.
11:03And LA Knight's had enough. Knight, one of the contenders for the world title, comes after Bronson Reed.
11:09Now, look at this from behind, the world champ, Seth Freakin' Rollins, assaulting Knight!
11:16Here comes Puck!
11:20Watch your back, Seth!
11:22LA Knight and CM Puck unloading on the world champ, a little preview of Clash and Curse!
11:28Rollins went to the eyes.
11:30Now goes to a table!
11:32Well, Punk able to neutralize Rollins for the moment, but remember, Colt, this extreme rules match is still going on!
11:40Braun Breaker is in position.
11:42Braun Breaker, uh, waiting for Roman Reigns, and Reigns with a spear to Braun Breaker!
11:54A Braun Breaker!
11:57Superman comes to Reed!
11:59The OTC was lying in wait for the perfect moment to strike!
12:04Throne on the table!
12:06Jey Uso going high!
12:08From Uso's blast!
12:12Jey Uso wins Extreme Rules!
12:16What a main event, and what a return for the OTC!
12:20Stay safe!
12:21Jey Uso wins Jake!
12:23Megan!
12:24W enlightenment!
12:25Megan!
12:26Megan!
12:27Where Roman Reigns just screamed at Bronson Reed,
12:30I'll see you in Paris!
12:32And the newcomers says he's ready!
12:35What a collision that would be!
12:38For once, the Vision is not standing tall, as Jey Uso and Roman Reigns hold their ground with some help from CM Punk and L.A. Knight.
12:58But while the Vision may be a little bit blurred at the moment, another one of the senses gets tested, as we will hear what the Tribal Chief has to say to the self-proclaimed Tribal Thief, Brunson Reed.
13:08Next.
13:16On Sunday, August 31st, WWE and Paris.
13:22An absolutely incredible scene.
13:25Create a masterpiece.
13:28This is what World Wrestling Entertainment is all about.
13:33WWE Clash in Paris.
13:39Welcome back to Main Event.
13:49The entire WWE Universe is gearing up for the Clash in Paris PLE tomorrow, August 31st in France.
13:55Not to mention Raw, this Monday, September 1st.
13:59Combo tickets are still available.
14:01The Vision has had their sights set on success on the road to Paris.
14:04But they will truly be put to the test this Sunday.
14:09Seth Rollins will have to see his Vision fully through if he wants to survive this Sunday.
14:14The World Heavyweight Champion will defend his title against three of the most formidable opponents.
14:18Raw has to offer in a fatal four-way match.
14:21CM Punk, Jey Uso, and L.A. Knife have been chomping at the bit to get their hands on Rollins, as they will finally get their chance at Clash in Paris.
14:30But one thing they want more than revenge is the World Heavyweight Championship.
14:34It's every man for himself who will walk out of Paris as the champion.
14:37Roman Reigns isn't used to being pushed around, but things are different with Big Ronson Reed on the scene.
14:46Reed has been constantly mocking Reigns with the Shula Fala around his neck.
14:50But the Tribal Chief is through with being bullied by the Tribal Thief.
14:54And he came out on Raw this Monday to let him know just that.
14:57Oh my God.
14:59All right, I imagine we could do this all night, but let's get to it.
15:16Birmingham.
15:21Acknowledge me.
15:27I got to acknowledge the fact that things aren't the same.
15:37I don't have all the things that I used to have.
15:42I don't have a bloodline.
15:44But Cody predicted it a year and a half ago.
16:06Interesting.
16:07And then Seth and the, what do we call it, what's their name?
16:13The Vision?
16:14I completely get that and understand that one, yeah.
16:23They followed through on the things Cody said.
16:27They took everything from me.
16:28But like I said, they took my bloodline.
16:36They took the wise man.
16:38They took the titles, and the disrespect has not stopped.
16:43They took everything, so they had to find something to take from me.
16:47Which brings me to Bronson Reed.
16:57I feel the same.
17:02Ladies and gentlemen.
17:03Ladies and gentlemen.
17:04Ladies and gentlemen.
17:18Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Daniels.
17:32You're supposed to wait for me to say it, so I'm going to start all over again.
17:45Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Haines.
17:53I stand before you tonight with the realest gangsta to hit Birmingham
18:00since the Peaky Blinders.
18:02That's fake, that ain't real.
18:05The tribal thief, the owner of the Shulafalla, Big Bronson Reed.
18:15We were-
18:21We were sitting in the back, and Mr. Reed pointed out to me that it was five years ago,
18:41this very week, that Brock Lesnar's advocate became Roman Reigns' wise man.
18:59For five years, this duo owned everything that there was to own in WWE and
19:08changed this entire industry together.
19:14And now look at you, standing all alone in the ring by yourself.
19:29Bronson, Bronson Reed, Bronson, Bronson Reed.
19:46Bronson, Bronson Reed.
19:55At Clash in Paris, it isn't about receipts, it is about disrespect.
20:12is about disrespect I'm the guy that's gonna kick Roman Reigns' ass.
20:25How about that?
20:29I know you're an educated man, Roman, with a college degree and all.
20:33But it's time for you to get a history lesson.
20:37Your tribe from Samoa is civilized.
20:42My tribe isn't.
20:44We were exiled and sent to Australia.
20:48Your tattoos all paid for, mine earned.
20:53And Roman, I'm the Samoan that your dad and uncle warned you about.
21:10And at Clash in Paris, you're gonna find out why.
21:15How about you bring your big old ass down here and return my shoes.
21:24Apologize to my people for wasting our time.
21:34Acknowledge me.
21:38And don't ever send disrespect my way again.
21:44What do you say there, huh?
21:45Come on down here and fix this problem.
21:48Roman, you don't want me to come down there, because if I come down there,
21:59I am going to force you to acknowledge your tribal thief.
22:18Well, he's right about one thing.
22:26He ain't gonna have to come up here, because I'm going down there.
22:31Oh, why wait to Paris?
22:32Here we go!
22:33Reigns and Reed!
22:35And the fight's on!
22:37These two juggernauts teeing off on one another.
22:40We may not make it to Paris at this ring.
22:43The free-for-all is underway, Roman Reigns and Bronson Reed!
22:48Roman not about to stand for the disrespect of Paul Heyman, of Bronson Reed.
22:54But Reed may force Roman to take it.
22:56And Roman Reigns has felt the wrath of Reed in tsunamis before.
23:00And now these two men coming to blows.
23:02Lylee, some extra security down here.
23:05And Bronson Reed is just wiping out security guards.
23:11Look out!
23:13And Reed with a splash in the corner to everyone.
23:16And the Orcilla is unleashed.
23:18Bronson Reed wanted to send a message to Roman Reigns.
23:26This is a hell of a way to do it.
23:27They wanted to steal more sneakers.
23:29The tribal thief and-
23:31Oh!
23:32To Reigns, crushing Roman.
23:35The 330-pounder.
23:38Things are about to get worse for the tribal chief.
23:43And more security out here now.
23:46Trying to separate these men.
23:47And Bronson Reed has been unleashed, Corey.
23:50Reed attacking everyone in his path.
23:53Consider this a tsunami warning.
23:56Here goes Reed!
23:57And there's our general manager, Adam Pearce, out there as well.
24:00And-
24:01Oh, and a Superman punch by Roman!
24:03Knocking Reed off the top rope!
24:05OTC!
24:08OTC!
24:09OTC!
24:10OTC!
24:11OTC!
24:12OTC!
24:13And just a preview of what's coming our way.
24:16Sunday at Clash in Paris between these two monsters.
24:20Roman Reigns isn't done yet.
24:22Roman Reigns isn't done yet.
24:23The OTC into the fray.
24:27Bad look in front of him.
24:33Roman Reigns and Reed tattooing one another all the way down the entryway.
24:38All the way down the entryway.
24:39Who the hell is going to stop these two?
24:45Wallet took an entire arena to hold these two behemoths back.
24:48Just imagine what will happen in the ring between Roman Reigns and Bronson Reed this Sunday.
24:53The division still has more to look out for tonight.
24:56As the badass Braun Breaker will look to put the megastar L.A. Knight in his place.
25:00Will Breaker take out Knight before his match with Seth on Sunday?
25:03Or will it be a BFT to put the dog to sleep with everyone saying L.A. Knight?
25:12But up next, John Cena is back in Ireland for one last time.
25:17What did the 17-time champ have to say to the Dublin crowd?
25:20We'll find out next on Main Event.
25:22Your time is up, my time is now, now.
25:29I'm a dream.
25:33While the WWE Universe in Dublin is eager to see their home.
26:03Hometown hero Sheamus compete tonight.
26:06They were also amped to see John Cena for one last time in Ireland.
26:10But the former champ has quite a lot on his plate.
26:12On top of having the returning beast Brock Lesnar breathing down his neck.
26:16Cena also has a match with Logan Paul this Sunday at Clash in Paris.
26:21But before Cena could get a word out to the WWE Universe in Dublin.
26:25The Maverick was quick to show his disrespect.
26:28Interrupting the legend with some words of his own.
26:30greed can playrun it.
26:31The M.I.I.M.
26:31A.I.M.
26:33die toi
26:44John, I can't stand this.
26:51The disrespect towards me, these people, these people at home,
26:55the Twitter warriors, they're going to go online and call me an outsider.
26:58How?
26:59How am I the outsider?
27:01I have been doing this for four years.
27:04Every match I do is great.
27:06I've been doing this longer than half of the people on the roster.
27:09I am the best this company has.
27:15I am next up.
27:17And when are you idiots going to accept me?
27:21Because newsflash, I am exactly who I say I am.
27:27You, sir, are a corporate pawn.
27:32You will do whatever the bosses tell you to do.
27:36The bosses tell John Cena to roll over.
27:38He rolls over on his back like a good boy.
27:43Logan Paul does whatever he wants.
27:46And if I want attention, I don't have to get naked at the Oscars to get it.
27:57And the fact is...
27:58I am Logan Paul, and I am here to stay.
28:07And John Cena, I cannot wait to share the ring with you in Paris.
28:12But I'm not signing a cohabitation agreement.
28:16By the way it is...
28:17It's my house now, John!
28:22Logan Paul is an undeniable presence.
28:45Logan Paul is a tremendous athlete.
28:59Logan Paul is a future WWE Champion.
29:05Logan Paul is a future WrestleMania main event.
29:11These are things I believe to be true, and boy, they make me upset.
29:20And they make you upset too, don't they?
29:24And I can tell why you're upset.
29:27For years, you have been calling him everything, but you've stuck on this one term for Logan
29:34Paul.
29:35The term I keep hearing is Logan Paul is an outsider.
29:54We got a course correct.
29:56You guys, he ain't leaving, we're stuck with him.
30:02Logan Paul is not an outsider.
30:07Logan Paul is a disappointment.
30:13You're a disappointment because we were so excited when you came here.
30:17Man, I sat and talked to you for hours on your podcast.
30:20As a family, we opened our arms to you, and instead of respecting this house, what the
30:26hell do you do?
30:35You use us as some branding opportunity to buy another Pokemon card.
30:46And on top of that, you got the audacity to come out here and bully my family, step into
31:03our home, and then brag to me that you put your life on the line for a grand total of 23 matches?
31:14Wow, wow, 23, that's an amazing number, because I have given my heart and soul to this business
31:26for 23 years.
31:30You understand?
31:32And that's not just premium live events, or televised events, or pay-per-views.
31:38That's non-televised events here in Dublin for the people that actually give a dinner.
31:47In 2010, I fought Sheamus here with no cameras.
31:53You were making Vine videos with your brother.
31:57You know a lot about hustle.
32:01You know nothing about loyalty or respect.
32:06And the first thing you should understand, if you are going to make it in any long-term capacity
32:11in this business, this is never your house.
32:14I learned the hard way.
32:15This is their world.
32:18And as far as a cohabitation agreement, I read the news, homie, you got plenty of legal trouble.
32:37The only agreement we have is you better bring your A-game to Paris, you understand?
32:49Because your opponent is the greatest of all time.
32:54And if you think for one second, in my final moments here, I'm just going to let you waltz
33:02into Paris with your drone behind you, just some backflipping YouTuber selling salt water,
33:07you're in for a long night.
33:12A clash in Paris.
33:13You will either understand what it means to give up yourself to this business I love,
33:19or I'm going to beat the ever-loving out of you.
33:26Pits the lock.
33:51And now.
33:56Now, that was Logan Paul.
34:03Attitude adjustment for someone who needs one.
34:10The 17-time champ is ready to teach Logan Paul a lesson in respect.
34:15John Cena will compete in one of his last PLE matches ever at Clash in Paris.
34:20While the greatest of all time looks to end his career on a high note,
34:23we've seen that all it takes is one punch from Paul to quell Cena's hoax.
34:32The hometown hero, Sheamus, has a treat for his friends and family in Dublin
34:36as the Celtic warrior looks to give Kit Wilson an Irish welcome on Main Event.
34:41This is going to be a brawl you don't want to miss.
34:44Sheamus, Kit Wilson, up next on Main Event.
34:53Main Event is coming to you straight from Birmingham this week
34:56as the road to Clash in Paris goes straight through the United Kingdom.
35:00We turn to the ring as the Women's Intercontinental Champion arrives
35:03with a message for her latest adversary.
35:06Nikki Bella thinks she can call me out to my ring.
35:10Call me out and I'm just going to come.
35:13I'm not some loser.
35:14I'm not Aston Villa or Birmingham City.
35:16Who do you think I...
35:19As the man came around with some fierce words for the Hall of Famer,
35:24Nikki Bella would head to the ring to return the favor.
35:30At Clash in Paris, you will hear Bella, the new Intercontinental Champion.
35:41I'm going to...
35:42I'm going to...
36:10I'm...
36:11Give me that title, guys!
36:18This is mine!
36:20Don't touch my title!
36:24Get your bloody hands off me!
36:26A challenge made, a challenge accepted, and it is official.
36:33The Women's Intercontinental Championship will be on the line
36:36as Becky Lynch takes on Nikki Bella in Paris.
36:39After weeks of verbal sparring between the past and present of the women's division,
36:43the WWE Universe is in for a banger in the heart of France.
36:47And speaking of bangers, we now turn to the ring,
36:50as Ireland's own Sheamus is ready to do what he does best.
36:57Oh, Vic, I know you're ready for this.
36:59Two weeks in a row!
37:02Can't wait.
37:04I'm not as excited as you.
37:05You're already standing up, waving your hands from side to side.
37:10Wait till Sheamus comes out here.
37:12See what happens.
37:13Could you be quiet and let Kid Wilson enter?
37:15Oh, we are so pristine.
37:21The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
37:24Introducing first, from Buckinghamshire, England,
37:28representing pretty deadly, weighing in at 210 pounds,
37:34Kit Wilson!
37:37Two things.
37:38The music's catchy.
37:39I will give you that.
37:40I'm starting to tap my foot.
37:42The other thing, this is the toughest test for Kit Wilson today in his singles career,
37:47going up against someone like a former world champion.
37:51Well, there's certainly no doubt there.
37:52But, Vic, I have to give you your props last week for letting Byron know I had the better
37:56guess board.
37:57You did.
37:58I'm a fair person.
37:59Glad you finally admit it.
38:02Oh, I'm going to be sick.
38:03I can't believe I actually did that.
38:08Listen to this reaction.
38:12Are you going to do it?
38:13Do the thing.
38:14Do the thing.
38:15Wait a second.
38:30And his opponent, from Dublin, Ireland, weighing in at 267 pounds, Sheevan!
38:44You missed it.
38:45Well, Vic, for the first time in nine years, it's Fortnite here on Main Event.
38:50Oh, you walked me into that one.
38:52I'm excited.
38:53Anytime you get a chance to sit here and call a match featuring Sheamus,
38:57who is a future first ballot Hall of Famer, expect a banger.
39:03Let's let the Celtic Warriors speak.
39:05Listen to the love and admiration for Sheamus.
39:21What a homecoming.
39:22Homecoming.
39:41You're going to make me start crying right now to keep this open.
39:43It's so great to be back in Ireland.
39:50And in the greatest city in the world.
39:56What a historic night we're all a part of here, SmackDown Live, here in Ireland.
40:05Yeah!
40:06So what I'd like to do right now is start a chat in my hometown, my home country.
40:14I want you all to be a part of, in the honor of Palma Brahe.
40:18How about we do something different tonight?
40:20Oh, and Kit Wilson trying to ruin this party here, Vic.
40:38Of course, Sheamus won't be smiles for long.
40:40He's got Kit Wilson in front of him right here.
40:42But a major fight on deck tomorrow with Russo.
40:45Yeah, you can say that one more time.
40:46I mean, Russo doesn't want to have anything to do with an angry shame.
40:52He, Russo might not be very happy with Kit Wilson after tonight.
40:55And Kit Wilson might not be very happy with the decision he just made
40:57because they're on the run!
40:58Yes, boy!
40:59Kit Wilson going to put Sheamus in quite the mood for tomorrow night, Vic.
41:03How intense is that good old fashioned Donnybrook going to be?
41:05It's going to be absolutely amazing.
41:06It's going to be a slow fest.
41:07It's going to be a Donnybrook.
41:09As Sheamus and Russo over the last few weeks on Monday Night Raw
41:14have had quite the intense battles.
41:16You have to wonder who truly has an edge in that matchup.
41:19I don't think anyone has an edge.
41:29But I'll tell you right, the edge tonight belongs to Sheamus.
41:32You can feel the energy coming off every single member of the WWE Universe.
41:37As Kit Wilson maybe had a desperation right here latching onto the foot of Sheamus.
41:41Oh!
41:42Here we go!
41:44Time for some 10 beats!
41:46Oh no!
41:47Oh!
41:48And Kit Wilson puts a stop to that real quick.
41:51Wilson in his third singles opportunity here.
41:53Oh!
41:54Sends Sheamus to the outside.
41:56Kit Wilson.
41:57Could be on the verge of a big win too.
41:58In control.
41:59The Celtic Warrior trying to get back in this one on Main Event.
42:01This October, John Cena lands in Perth for a full scale WWE Takeover.
42:11It all starts with SmackDown.
42:13Ends with Raw.
42:15And in the center of it all, Cena takes the spotlight for one of WWE's most massive nights.
42:21WWE Crown Jewel in Perth.
42:24All at RSC Arena.
42:26WWE Takeover.
42:27Perth.
42:28This October.
42:30Combo tickets on sale now.
42:36Back here on Main Event.
42:37Right in Sheamus' hometown.
42:39But Kit Wilson looking to spoil the part.
42:41I've been very impressed with Kit Wilson here.
42:43And again, transitioning from single star, from tag team competitor.
42:48No one for him to tag out.
42:49And he's in there testing himself against someone like Sheamus.
42:53He's held his own up until maybe this point.
42:56Kit Wilson, former two-time NXT Tag Team Champion.
42:58150 days combined.
43:00Now looking to do some work here on Sheamus.
43:02And pull off a major upset.
43:03But Vic, right now with Kit Wilson in control.
43:06Here we go.
43:07Doesn't hook that inside leg.
43:08Doesn't get a cover.
43:09A smart strategy by the way by Kit Wilson.
43:10He knows how dangerous that pump kick is from Sheamus.
43:14If he can take away some of the vertical base as well.
43:18And not allow Sheamus to use the power game.
43:20You talk about all the moves, all the variations of suplexes Sheamus can do.
43:25You can take away his power and keep him grounded.
43:27Kit Wilson, I'm shocked right now, may have a victory.
43:30That power looks to be on full display right here.
43:33As Sheamus going to ascend.
43:36I think this is why Kit was trying to chop down the tree, so to speak.
43:40Maybe going to feel some white noise.
43:42Whoa, whoa, whoa.
43:43Oh!
43:44As Kit slips out the back door.
43:463, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
43:52Sheamus in control right here.
43:55And Sheamus going to go right back to it, Vic.
43:57Sheamus having a little bit of fun.
44:00Oh!
44:01And referee couldn't see it.
44:03Kit Wilson takes full advantage.
44:05Now Sheamus charges in.
44:07And meets that ring post.
44:09Kit Wilson creates the separation.
44:11Now looks for a tornado DDT.
44:13Oh, this would be a shocking upset and the biggest one in Wilson's career.
44:16Sheamus is down.
44:18Wilson's got to go for that cover.
44:21No yes boys tonight in Dublin.
44:23Has kicked.
44:27That twisting elbow from up top.
44:29Here we go.
44:30This could do it.
44:31What an upset could be on its way.
44:32Only gets two.
44:34It's hard to keep Sheamus down.
44:35I mean this is someone who is so battle-tested throughout his career.
44:39Bam!
44:40Precision with the point from Wilson with the elbow.
44:43Sheamus so able to power out.
44:45This is something we've learned about Sheamus.
44:47The harder he gets hit, the more he likes it.
44:49And speaking of that hard-hitting Vic coming up,
44:51it's the megastar and the badass one-on-one from RAW.
44:54Can anyone derail the vision?
44:56I don't think anyone can derail the vision for LA Knight.
45:00He's going to do his best to take on the badass Braun Breaker.
45:05And you got to wonder, can Seth Rollins fend off Punk, Jey Uso,
45:09and LA Knight tomorrow in pairs?
45:12That's another question too.
45:13I mean time will tell.
45:16Can't count anyone out in the WWE as Sheamus battling back into this match.
45:20As Sheamus along with Rusev have seemingly bringing the breasts out of each other
45:25over the last few weeks.
45:26And that goes back to what I'm talking about with Kit Wilson trying to take away the vertical base.
45:30Sheamus so strong he can hit you from any variety of different angles with suplexes,
45:34back breakers.
45:35As Kit trying to come right back in.
45:37Oh!
45:38He under the jaw.
45:39Talked about that massive pump kick, the knee connects right there.
45:43As Sheamus starting to roll.
45:46This is just an appetizer maybe for Sheamus for what will happen against Rusev.
45:53We know it's going to be brutal.
45:55We know it's going to be intense.
45:56We know it's going to be hard hitting.
45:58Setting the table tomorrow night.
46:00The good old fashioned Donny Brook.
46:02But Kit Wilson about to feel it right here.
46:08Dial him up Vic.
46:10Yes boy.
46:11Yes boy.
46:12Three, four, one, six, nine, nine, nine, ten.
46:15And count along with the WWE Universe right here.
46:19Ten big beats.
46:24Yes boy, he wants one more.
46:27One more for the hometown crowd.
46:34Dial it up.
46:35One, two, three, four, one, six, nine, nine, ten.
46:39How about a remix?
46:40Well look, when it comes to Sheamus and he's out at a pub and he asks for one more pint,
46:47that's typically what happens.
46:48It's more than just one.
46:50Sheamus in control.
46:52As the Celtic Warrior looks out to the faithful.
46:55Go, go, go, go, go, go.
47:01He's getting ready.
47:02Sheamus in position.
47:04Up, bam.
47:06Big time, Brogue.
47:08And a big cheers for the Celtic Warrior.
47:15Here is your winner, Sheamus.
47:20That's so cool to sit here and see Sheamus getting this love from the hometown.
47:25One thing has eluded this man.
47:27The Intercontinental Championship.
47:28I for one would love to see it around his waist.
47:31Bam!
47:32One day.
47:33He certainly had a major opportunity at the end of last year.
47:35Now Sheamus through all the trials and tribulations.
47:37Looking to climb back up and find that goal that once eluded him.
47:41But we know tomorrow night.
47:43Clash in Paris.
47:44It's going to be a good old fashioned Donnybrook.
47:46Sheamus and Rusev.
47:48Something has to give in that one.
47:50Who will be the last man standing?
47:53And what a moment this must be for Sheamus.
47:57To come back home.
47:58To wear his country's flag proudly.
48:00To pick up a victory.
48:02Look at this moment.
48:03And to party and celebrate.
48:05With the WWE Universe.
48:08Right in the thick of this incredible European tour right here.
48:11Sheamus.
48:12Looking to put a cherry on top tomorrow night.
48:14But here a little hometown love.
48:15A little hometown flavor.
48:17For the Celtic Warrior.
48:18And a very memorable moment.
48:20And a huge win.
48:21On main event.
48:26Coming up next.
48:27LA Knight is determined to get payback against the Vision.
48:30Before he sets out to capture the World Heavyweight Championship from Seth Rollins.
48:34He must first take on the unpredictable badass.
48:36Braun Brink.
48:37Can Knight take down the big dog.
48:39En route to a massive middle four way match for the gold.
48:42We'll find out next.
48:43On main event.
48:49Rusev me old buddy.
48:51Welcome back to the WWE.
48:53You know there are words I never thought I'd say.
48:55And fella when I heard you were coming back.
48:57I cringed.
48:59The big superstar return no one wanted.
49:02And no one asked for.
49:04Especially me.
49:06Why?
49:07Because you lost your love for the game.
49:09Passionless.
49:10And no one was buying you.
49:11Speaking from a darkened room.
49:13Going around bullying smaller guys.
49:15And stomping around craving attention.
49:17Cringe.
49:19But over the last couple of weeks.
49:22Something changed.
49:23Our trilogy of matches.
49:25And brutal out of the ring exchanges.
49:28Has awoken the fire I remember.
49:30Thanks to me.
49:31The world remembers.
49:33Who the real Rusev is.
49:35And now just days away from a potential show stealer.
49:38A clash of Paris.
49:40With a good old fashioned Donnybrook match.
49:43Truth is.
49:45You've won back my respect.
49:47But don't forget I was the one who had to drag it out of you.
49:50So this Sunday.
49:51I want you to bring your hate game.
49:53I want you to bring your hate.
49:54I want you to bring your aggression.
49:55I want you to try and rip me bleeding head off.
49:57I want you to try and rip me bleeding head off.
49:59I want the old Rusev back.
50:01Because don't forget.
50:02I made you relevant again.
50:06From Bulgaria down to France.
50:09With Banger.
50:11After Banger.
50:14After Banger.
50:19After weeks of non-stop fighting between these friends turned bitter enemies.
50:23Raw General Manager Adam Pearce has declared that this feud.
50:26must be settled once and for all.
50:28And a clash in Paris.
50:29The Celtic warrior Sheamus.
50:31And the Bulgarian brute Rusev.
50:33Are on a collision course of epic proportions.
50:35As the two go to battle.
50:37In a good old fashioned Donnybrook match.
50:41With just 10 dates before his retirement.
50:43John Cena has made it clear that he will be taking on all challengers.
50:47And it is none other than Logan Paul.
50:49That has decided he wants a piece of the 17 time champion.
50:53The Maverick will certainly get a challenge.
50:55When the greatest of all time meets Paul one on one.
50:58In Paris.
50:59What social media moment awaits.
51:00As past and present meet on Sunday.
51:05Ever since the earth shattering formation of Seth Rollins' vision.
51:08The seemingly unstoppable Roman Reigns has been laid out on multiple occasions.
51:13By the immovable object of Big Bronson Reed.
51:15And at La Defense Arena.
51:17The WWE Universe is in store for an all out war.
51:20As the Tribal Chief and Tribal Thief.
51:23Meet in a grudge match defined by disrespect.
51:26Will Reigns rebound on his path to redemption.
51:29Or Reed once again walk away from Paris.
51:32With a trophy courtesy of the OTC.
51:38After cashing in the Money in the Bank contract on CM Punk.
51:40To capture the World Heavyweight Championship.
51:42In the ruse of the century.
51:44Seth Ricken Rollins will defend his title against Punk.
51:46Jey Uso and LA Knight.
51:49In a fatal four way match.
51:51And each competitor previously falling at the hands of the vision.
51:54Rollins will have his work cut out for him.
51:56As he looks to walk out of Paris.
51:57Still world champion.
52:00But before we get to Paris.
52:01We turn to the ring as last Monday's match.
52:04Between LA Knight and Braun Breaker.
52:06Broke into a Birmingham brawl.
52:08As the Tribal Chief attacked his clash in Paris opponent.
52:11Bronson Reed.
52:12And just as things couldn't get any more chaotic.
52:15LA Knight got the action going.
52:17As he and the big dog.
52:19Fought all the way to the ring.
52:20Ahead of their one on one contest.
52:27And now.
52:28LA Knight.
52:29LA Knight.
52:32Come from Elbow.
52:38LA Knight is feeling it.
52:40He's on a different level tonight.
52:42Come on.
52:43Come on.
52:44This is as aggressive and focused as we may have ever seen.
52:47Damn it.
52:48Of course.
52:49I mean.
52:50Should we expect it any different?
52:53His prize.
52:54His prize pupil in trouble.
52:56And here comes Rollins.
52:57This tells me a lot Cole.
52:58This tells me that Seth Rollins is sweating.
53:01Rollins is worried.
53:02And he doesn't like what he's seeing from LA Knight.
53:05I guarantee you.
53:07He saw the fire in the eyes of Knight that we saw.
53:10LA Knight now in pursuit of the world champion.
53:13And now Breaker.
53:14Oh!
53:15And just like that Rollins turns the table.
53:17And Breaker spears Knight out of his boots.
53:20Rollins laid the trap.
53:27Braun Breaker struck.
53:29And things are about to get even worse for LA Knight.
53:33Yeah.
53:34Fight almost quit in half.
53:37And Rollins has gotta be loving what he sees.
53:40Cover, and it's over.
53:41Rollins never made contact with Knight.
53:42So there was never a disqualification.
53:43And Breaker able to pick up the win.
53:44And now Rollins just beat the hell out of one of his Sunday opponents.
53:45Six nights out.
53:46The mind games have begun.
53:47This is the vision.
53:48This is Breaker protecting Rollins.
53:49Protecting the World Championship.
53:50And here comes Jey Uso into the fray.
53:57Main event Jey Uso, who wants his world title back Sunday.
54:00And here comes Jey Uso.
54:10Into the fray.
54:11Jey Uso.
54:12Roman Cs.
54:13Master Jey Uso.
54:18I think March into the ring, not so much to help LA Knight,
54:25but to go after that man, the world champ, Seth Rollins.
54:29And Rollins runs into a superkick.
54:39Main event, Jey Uso standing tall, lining up the Visionary.
54:48And Breaker, again, gonna run interference for Rollins.
54:56And now Seth Rollins taking advantage, kick to the midsection.
55:01Rollins looking for a pedigree to Uso.
55:03Jey.
55:04Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso.
55:10Uso and Knight are down.
55:13And Rollins and Breaker wanna do more damage to two of Rollins opponents on Sunday.
55:18You are never getting hands on that.
55:21All these eyes.
55:22Yeah.
55:23That.
55:24Rollins vision extremely clear.
55:27You can take out my opponents.
55:30So they're less than 100%.
55:32Absolute power and total control.
55:43And the fourth man in the Fatal 4-Way Equation Sunday.
55:50And Breaker with a mink Punk in the aisle.
55:55And Punk has come to fight.
55:57Rollins sick the dog on CM Punk.
56:00But Punk was ready.
56:03And now Breaker driven into the ring post.
56:06And now Punk turns his attention to his arch nemesis, the world champion Seth Rollins.
56:12Here we go.
56:18Punk and Rollins now is changing blows.
56:24Big fight, it's been a night of chaos and pandemonium on Monday Night Raw.
56:31CM Punk looking to take his pound of flesh from the visionary before we arrive in Paris.
56:39And now Braun Breaker rescuing the world heavyweight champion Seth Rollins.
56:49And Rollins survives for at least six more nights.
56:52You are never getting a piece of this.
56:56C as it does.
56:57C as it is now.
56:59NNK!
57:00C as it does.
57:02C as it does.
57:07C as it does.
57:10.
57:32So much for keeping the pace.
57:34No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
57:35Look, look, look.
