00:00:00Now, blew me away, Post Malone.
00:00:03And guess what, Post?
00:00:04The big-ass world tour with Jelly Roll and Post
00:00:07coming to this arena, La Defense Arena in Paris,
00:00:10this coming Wednesday night.
00:00:13And we'd like to extend a special thank you
00:00:16to Tiesto and Sexy Red for OMG,
00:00:19the official theme song, Clash Paris.
00:00:22Let me make myself clear.
00:00:52I am ejecting you both from this arena tonight.
00:00:55And if I so much as smell you near this building,
00:00:58I will suspend you both indefinitely without pay.
00:01:03Am I clear?
00:01:06Just me. Just me.
00:01:10Vision, do what we want.
00:01:12Not tonight.
00:01:14Get him out of here.
00:01:16Gone.
00:01:16Get out of the way.
00:01:18Come make myself out of here.
00:01:19Please, please, please.
00:01:22Enjoy your evening in gay Paris.
00:01:27Shut up!
00:01:33Wow.
00:01:34A lot of Paris rightfully upset.
00:01:36You heard the news, Wade.
00:01:38Roman Reigns is being taken to the hospital.
00:01:40At least they got rid of those...
00:01:42Those monsters.
00:01:43Breaker and Reed.
00:01:44You just right in the middle,
00:01:46man.
00:01:46You coming to pop it up,
00:01:47get out of there.
00:01:50And come on with the mother of the family.
00:01:53Here's what's looking at, I'm here to come together.
00:01:55The following podcast is scheduled for one call.
00:02:16And in course, the WWE Tag Team Championship.
00:02:23The street profits with an opportunity to win back Tag Team Gold.
00:02:53Are you ready to break free?
00:02:57Borderlands 4 is coming to hot with four false hunters.
00:03:00A dangerous new world to explore and literally billions of weapons to play with.
00:03:05Grab your friends and play Borderlands 4 September 12th.
00:03:09And of course, the masks being worn by Montez Ford Angelo Dawkins tonight.
00:03:19You can see in the Borderlands video game.
00:03:21And I like that from the street profits, their opponents tonight, of course, known for wearing
00:03:28some intimidating masks and adopting intimidating personas.
00:03:32Well, Borderlands is an incredibly violent game.
00:03:35So maybe that is the side of the street profits that will be coming out to play this season.
00:03:40And again, remember both Dallas trying to get in their heads this past Friday night on SmackDown.
00:03:47Talking about maybe Dawkins and Ford aren't quite as close as people make them out to be.
00:03:53So much of the game of the Wyatt Six has been the mind games.
00:03:56It's going to be trying to drive a lake between this brotherhood of the street profits.
00:04:04And again, still trying to recuperate from what happened moments ago.
00:04:08Roman Reigns has been taken to the hospital.
00:04:10You heard General Manager Adam Pearce say that Breaker and Reid have been kicked out of the building.
00:04:14If they return, they'll be suspended without pay if they come back in this arena.
00:04:21That has massive consequences for Seth Rollins, who's defending tonight in a fatal four-way,
00:04:26his World Heavyweight Championship.
00:04:28Apparently without backup.
00:04:29And I heard that Heyman may be going to the hospital too.
00:04:32Let's go girl.
00:04:46To just put these rules back in this arena.
00:04:49Keep us feeling all your free.
00:04:54The little details matter.
00:04:57equality!
00:04:58Pain!
00:04:59Oh, my God.
00:05:29Oh, my God.

00:07:31Oh, my God.
00:07:33Oh, my God.
00:07:35Oh, my God.
00:07:37Oh, my God.
00:07:39Dawkins and uh that didn't sit too well with Dawkins so maybe you are on to something Wade well from
00:07:45tabloid journalism from Wade Barrett to Pulitzer Prize winning journalism from Wade Barrett thank
00:07:50you very much Michael Cole the Street Profits better get that act together pretty damn soon
00:07:54I can hear B-Fab on the outside trying to yell instructions and get him on the same page and
00:07:59Dexter Loomis who uh fancies himself a tortured artist oh and a drop kick by Montez Ford showing
00:08:07off here tonight talk to the Profits earlier today Wade they talked a lot about the importance
00:08:12of winning the tag title back in Europe well they've had a hell of a run in Europe this
00:08:17year alone winning several matches back on the tour in March including winning gold in Barcelona
00:08:24on SmackDown Oh Loomis will freeze Ford with that stare that's again the mind games of the
00:08:32Wyatt Six creepy and unnerving and clearly Montez Ford did not want one piece of it
00:08:37shot oh wow I mean when you're the Wyatts I guess it's easy to play mind games I mean they
00:08:42got split personalities warped demented double-teamed by the Profits and finally perhaps the Street
00:08:50Profits back to their usual selves Gacy thinks he's a pig boy Loomis thinks he's a buzzer and
00:08:56now B-Fab trying to get the profits on the same page and now Montez Ford with a kick to Loomis now the
00:09:03Street Profits really cooking looking like a well-oiled machine and taking it to the
00:09:08Wire Six who to be fair have been completely dominant since returning haven't lost a single
00:09:13match well that might change if the Profits keep going about business like this oh and again the
00:09:19distraction by Gacy Ford hit the French announced table hard oh that was midsection and
00:09:24forehead against that table we saw the damage he did to Roman Reigns moments ago see if Montez Ford fares
00:09:32any better you see a uncle howdy slash Bo Dallas looking on surrounded of course by Nikki Cross who
00:09:40fancied himself Abby the witch and a big red Eric Rowan who at one point thought he was a rabbit and now
00:09:48Gacy really punishing Montez Ford here the Wyatt Six are so dangerous way yeah when they get the other hand a lot of
00:09:56people get spooked by their kooky personas but I'll tell you right now incredibly dangerous when the
00:10:01bell rings next to Loomis the silent assassin of the group cover and a kick out you call it kooky and
00:10:07it might be a good way to describe it but the actions of the Wyatt Six get into their opponents
00:10:12head it freaks their opponents out gives them the upper hand undoubtedly takes your eye off the game
00:10:17especially when three of them are loitering in the ringside area in the form of Abby the witch
00:10:23uncle howdy and of course the massive Eric Rowan just a presence that's ominous stays in your mind
00:10:30it does not allow you to focus on your opponent
00:10:32some real heavy leather the way of Joe Gacy but Joe Gacy is a street fighter this guy's a brawler
00:10:45and can throw it back yeah I think that's one of the things uh and look at Gacy really locking in the
00:10:54chin lock here the thing about Gacy I think you sometimes get thrown by the persona but he can
00:11:00battle on the ground and for the best of them just a hardcore brawler he's maybe an entire career of
00:11:06that until uncle howdy got his hands on him and walked that personality even further
00:11:11oh
00:11:17let's talk just 48 hours ago of course the Street Profits had an incredibly exhausting matchup in
00:11:25order to win this whereas the Wyatt Six have not competed in a couple of weeks in a fresh out of
00:11:30daisies and it's really showing in the early goings here oh and Loomis again into the cover and
00:11:36another near fall for the Wyatt Six Loomis and Gacy just works so well together you know they were a
00:11:44little frayed around the edges when they started first started tagging together as part of this Wyatt Six
00:11:49but they have clicked in a big way over the past couple of months and now just a well-oiled machine
00:11:54got those cobwebs out of the way and are looking utterly devastated think about being the the
00:11:59profits oh and a great double team you look down and see uncle howdy and company staring on at ringside
00:12:05and now Gacy for the elbow cover hook of the leg we're going to retain the tag titles and a kick
00:12:11out at two well this thing about the profits they returned to WWE after a layoff back in January and
00:12:16they have been by far the most physically dominant team around ever since that has all changed since
00:12:22the Wyatt Six arrived and they are getting completely battered from pillar to post now
00:12:27that's the problem the Wyatt Six know how to take away your best asset which is the power game of the
00:12:37Street Profits and now the look at Impleton Loomis though launched over the top rope Montez Ford has an
00:12:42opportunity Gacy though intercepts Ford sends him out to the apron this great instance there for Joe
00:12:48Gacy the second Montez Ford was looking like he had a sniff of a tag to the Fred Dawkins
00:12:53immediately shut down
00:12:58now Gacy with Ford on the apron he was perhaps looking for a suplex there blocked a couple of times
00:13:04now by Montez
00:13:05and Ford with oh one of his own and Gacy you know getting caught up in the rope may have been the best
00:13:12thing for Gacy because it wasn't full impact when he hit the apron it's two things it does reduce the
00:13:17impact on the apron but you can easily tear a tendon or a ligament in that knee or ankle on the way down
00:13:23that was ugly for Gacy and he's not moving well on the floor now but here is your chance for the big tag to Dawkins
00:13:30tag made here comes Doc
00:13:32he was all worked up today after his Ohio State Buckeyes win yesterday and Dawkins with a big
00:13:39leap over the top rope taking out Gacy and Loomis a big lad who should not be able to move like that but
00:13:45he could slug like a heavyweight and doesn't Joe Gacy know that
00:13:52darkness look at the quickness the leapfrog oh there's that corkscrew elbow by Dawkins how can a guy
00:13:57like Angelo Dawkins be so twinkle-toed a slam dunk to Loomis that's a unique way it's just item and
00:14:05there's a uh a corkscrew splash in the corner fouls it up with an enziguri I can move like a ballerina and
00:14:11knock people out like oh twisting neck breaker George Foreman what a devastating combination this
00:14:18guy is power personified and BFAP telling Dawkins to go up top Angelo Dawkins top rope now may have
00:14:27Gacy where he wants him not used to seeing Dawkins fly this should be Montez Ford's territory but he hit
00:14:34him with a swan card cover by Dawkins is it enough on Gacy gets the shoulder up God and I love that for
00:14:42Angelo Dawkins you're in a championship match keep your opponents guessing pull out something new every
00:14:48time
00:14:53and now Dawkins controlling Gacy at least momentarily Gacy though with a headbutt tagged by Loomis now the legal
00:15:01man not sure if Dawkins realizes it but he does now oh he's getting pep of left right and center double
00:15:06team that suplex into the neck breaker Loomis quickly into the cover to retain in a kick at two by Dawkins
00:15:13now frustration starting to show on the faces of the Wyatt Six and perhaps panic in the eyes of Uncle Howdy
00:15:21the chair rocking a little more than usual I don't know how you can tell panic the guy's wearing a
00:15:27mask Wade but because it's in the eyes like I said come on Michael Cole wake up Dawkins with a right to Gacy
00:15:33drops him off the apron double team now oh goodness and Dawkins with authority on that right helped
00:15:39that toss and a kick out of two
00:15:46some plum on duck only two Michael Cole they love that chant out here
00:15:52and now it's Montez Ford's turn to head up to the top rope sluggish climb to the top for Montez Ford
00:16:02has been beaten and broken down and weighed up yeah Gacy dropped Dawkins it allowed Loomis time to
00:16:08cause Montez Ford to lose his balance
00:16:11Ford is hurting in a big way that was not the usual Montez Ford sprints on the top rope that we used to
00:16:17Loomis set to the center of the ring got absolutely launched across the ring but Montez Ford did not see that tag
00:16:27and Gacy now legal great frequent tags here by the tag champs the six
00:16:35and now Dawkins makes the tag he's legal once again Gacy this time being blindsided by the
00:16:43legal man the powerhouse Angelo Dawkins with Gacy on his shoulders
00:16:50Montez Ford and your camera's ready
00:16:54blockbuster
00:16:56cover
00:16:59and breaking things up is Loomis
00:17:02oh pinpoint championship title for the wild six
00:17:06the kiss of death connects the electric jab blockbuster
00:17:10it's game over if that's the Loomis wasn't on point
00:17:14and Loomis with a kick to the face of Ford
00:17:17Dawkins with a right hand
00:17:18and Gacy from behind
00:17:21roll up on Angelo Dawkins who's got a kick out at two
00:17:24Gacy oh with a big right
00:17:27massive winding right hand to the jaw
00:17:30oh and down off the spine buster goes Gacy tag to Ford
00:17:34all of these men hurting so much but this is the moment Michael Cole
00:17:38Montez Ford from the heavens nobody home
00:17:42tag to Loomis
00:17:43all of that impact on the ribs of Montez Ford
00:17:46trying to use Loomis as a weapon and does
00:17:50is your Montez Ford trying to duck out of the way there
00:17:54almost had him
00:17:57and breaking things up
00:18:00and this one has turned into an absolute mess of broken bodies
00:18:05all for the WWE tag team titles
00:18:11the red hot tag team division on Friday night Smackdown on display here tonight
00:18:16and Gacy with that unorthodox offensive style delivers the clothesline
00:18:26now a springboard went for the moonsault nobody home
00:18:30and you just feel that both teams have really lost the momentum at this point
00:18:37and it's really up for grabs one big hit is gonna do this
00:18:40oh and Dawkins with that football shoulder tackle
00:18:44taking advantage is Loomis of the distraction
00:18:58and now gets Loomis back into the ring
00:19:11and the momentum reacquired
00:19:13Uncle Howdy gets some of this
00:19:15wait a second
00:19:16oh look at this
00:19:16Nikki Cross
00:19:17grabbing the leg of Ford
00:19:19she came out from under the ring
00:19:21and now
00:19:21Sister Abigail from Uncle Howdy
00:19:24all behind the referee's back
00:19:26who was completely distracted by Dexter Loomis in the ring
00:19:29and now
00:19:29the Wyatt Six
00:19:30have an opportunity to put the profits away
00:19:33I mean Montez Ford is a beaten man already
00:19:37but why don't we put the kiss of death on it
00:19:39and there's that suplex into the sit-out power bomb
00:19:42they told me earlier on
00:19:44that
00:19:45that's called

00:20:18Eric Rowan
00:20:19and Lewis in the presidential

00:21:44Feel your heart like a dream
00:21:58A clash in Paris in the absolutely beautiful city of Paris, France here tonight. The first ever premium live event in Paris and it's going to be quite the week when it comes to the WWE Podcast Network. Highlighted of course by the Clash in Paris recap. Sam Roberts and Megan Morant. That will be available later on tonight.
00:22:28Well, the man has dominated since winning the Intercontinental Championship, but her post-match beatdowns and vicious verbal jabs have pushed Hall of Famer Nikki Bella to fall. In the shadow of the City of Lights, Nikki didn't come to sightsee. She came to prove her legacy shines brighter than Becky's arrogance. Paris becomes the proving ground for the Women's Intercontinental Championship. Nikki Bella versus Becky Lynch live next.
00:22:58And still, the man retains the Intercontinental title. Ding dong, Lyra is gone.
00:23:15It is time to open the floor to new competitors.
00:23:23Competitors who understand what it is to step in the ring with me.
00:23:29Who understand that they are stepping in the ring with the greatest female wrestler of all time.
00:23:37They can look, but you can't touch.
00:23:39Oh, hey, Becky.
00:23:42I was just listening to you back there, and I have to say, Becky Lynch really is one of the greatest of all time.
00:23:49And it was superstars like Becky Lynch.
00:23:52Why, I knew it was okay to take a step away because the Women's Division was in such great hands.
00:23:59You turned out to be such a disappointment.
00:24:02Why don't you face me one-on-one, Nikki Bella versus Becky Lynch?
00:24:10You know why we never went one-on-one?
00:24:14A cheap shot by Becky.
00:24:17Fireworks here tonight between the Intercontinental Champion and the Hall of Famer, Nikki Bella.
00:24:24Natalya versus Becky Intercontinental Championship.
00:24:29Becky, enough is enough. Match is over.
00:24:32Here comes Nikki Bella, the woman who was embarrassed by Becky Lynch a couple of weeks ago.
00:24:38Smack attack, 2.0.
00:24:41That's how you make a statement.
00:24:43Becky Lynch wants to say she's holding everyone down.
00:24:47Pretty soon, Becky will be holding nothing, especially that Intercontinental Championship.
00:24:53Until then, I'll be holding you down.
00:24:56So, Becky, I will see you in Birmingham next week.
00:24:59Nikki Bella thinks she can call me out to my ring.
00:25:05Hey, Becky.
00:25:07Why are you acting like a little bitch?
00:25:11If you're not one, Becky, then there should be no problem facing me for that title.
00:25:16You don't call the shots.
00:25:18You don't call the shots.
00:25:20And I'm not going to just give away title opportunities, especially not to broke-neck Barbie over here.
00:25:27Is this what the man has become?
00:25:29Has the man lost her balls?
00:25:31Okay, you want your match?
00:25:36Fine.
00:25:36Fine.
00:25:37You can have your match in Paris at Clash.
00:25:40I never wanted to respect you.
00:25:44I wanted to replace you.
00:25:47And I've done a pretty good job.
00:25:50You know, Becky, I know why you're so mad.
00:25:54No matter how hard you try, your name will never be as big as Bella.
00:25:59At Clash in Paris, you will hear Bella, the new Intercontinental Champion.
00:26:09Becky went for a cheap shot.
00:26:11Nikki Bella was ready.
00:26:16Nikki Bella hopes to add the Intercontinental Championship to her Hall of Fame resume.
00:26:22The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the Women's Intercontinental Championship.
00:26:47Introducing first the challenger from Scottsdale, Arizona, WWE Hall of Famer, Nikki Bella.
00:27:01Nikki Bella, a two-time Divas Champion, once held that title over 300 days.
00:27:06But we've talked a lot about Nikki Bella since her return to WWE.
00:27:11This is a different Nikki.
00:27:12She's gone through a lot in her personal life.
00:27:14She's had to persevere on a number of occasions.
00:27:17And she said when she's come back to WWE this time around, she said it's foreclosed me.
00:27:22It's about time I did things for myself.
00:27:23Not worry about my sister.
00:27:24Not worry about, you know, what people think about me in the locker room.
00:27:28Not worry about trying to be a leader.
00:27:30Do something for myself for a change.
00:27:32Please, myself and all the WWE fans.
00:27:34I'm going to sing the praises of Nikki Bella.
00:27:36I went through Florida Championship Wrestling many years ago with Nikki Bella.
00:27:40She's a hell of a competitor.
00:27:41And she really was one of the greatest of her era.
00:27:48And Clash in Paris is brought to you in part by Papa John's.
00:27:52Better ingredients, better pizza, Papa John's.
00:27:55But now I've said those nice things about Nikki Bella, I will say she dominated, as you mentioned, in the Divas era.
00:28:04This is a very different era now.
00:28:06The level of competition is miles above it was even 10 years ago.
00:28:12And Nikki Bella has a lot to prove tonight in my estimation.
00:28:15And her opponent, from Dublin, Ireland.
00:28:38She is the women's intercontinental champion.
00:28:47The man, Becky Lynch.
00:28:53Wade, we discussed this during the countdown show earlier today.
00:28:56But one of the things that Nikki Bella describes Becky Lynch as is desperate.
00:29:01She believes that Becky Lynch is desperate to constantly stay in the spotlight.
00:29:06Desperate for the media to talk about her.
00:29:08Desperate for the fans to continually call her one of the all-time greats.
00:29:13Desperate to always be a champion.
00:29:15And Nikki Bella said she's going to prey on that desperation tonight and win her first intercontinental title.
00:29:20How do you use those as insults to the man, Becky Lynch?
00:29:24Those are all things that top stars should aspire to be.
00:29:28Those are all things that if you are desperate to be recognized as the greatest, it means you are one hell of a competitor.
00:29:35And Becky Lynch could have retired years ago with her Hall of Fame placed intact.
00:29:40But she's still out here putting it all on the mat, being a competitor.
00:29:45And yes, desperate to continually prove she is the greatest female wrestler on the planet.
00:29:51Those are not insults, Becky and Bella.
00:29:54Those are compliments.
00:29:58One thing Becky cannot do, Wade, is take Nikki Bella lightly.
00:30:03Well, nobody really knows what they're going to get from Nikki Bella tonight.
00:30:06That's the point I've been trying to make.
00:30:07If anyone is desperate, in my view, it's Nikki Bella.
00:30:10She is desperate to prove she can hang in this current era.
00:30:15It's not something she's proved in the past.
00:30:17She dominated the Divas era.
00:30:19Can't she dominate for now?
00:30:21Well, it's interesting.
00:30:22First time ever that these two women have gone one-on-one here in WWE.
00:30:27The last time they actually shared the same ring was back in the Women's Rumble in 2018.
00:30:34I'll tell you what's really fascinating to me.
00:30:37Both women traded a lot of verbal barbs in the build-up for this one.
00:30:40Both got very personal.
00:30:42Here comes Nikki.
00:30:42Very personal in their verbal attacks, bringing personal life.
00:30:46And that's something that's normally off-limits.
00:30:48It suggests to me there is a burning hatred between these two women that has been unspoken for years.
00:30:55Becky Lynch did say, I didn't want to look up to Nikki Bella.
00:30:59I wanted to take Nikki Bella's spot when she first arrived here in WWE.
00:31:03And now Nikki has Becky a bit off the game and nearly going right to the knee.
00:31:07That was a horrible kick right to the knee of Becky Lynch.
00:31:10And that was full impact right on the knee joint.
00:31:14Becky who's been so dominant as champion since hitting Live of Alqueria back in June.
00:31:19Nikki now made a mistake.
00:31:20Becky going to make her pay.
00:31:21Driving Nikki Bella into the steel step.
00:31:24And I hate to use the word inexperience, but that was a moment of inexperience for a Nikki Bella
00:31:29who's not used to in-ring competition.
00:31:32Well, inexperience or perhaps just ring rust, Wade.
00:31:35Well, it's ring rust.
00:31:35That's my point.
00:31:36She came out of the blocks way too hot, over-committed.
00:31:39Becky Lynch rode out that brief early storm
00:31:42and now has reverted to type with the man in control.
00:31:47And Becky bouncing Nikki's face off the apron.
00:31:51Becky Lynch had a very interesting conversation with her earlier today
00:31:57as Becky now heads up to the top rope.
00:31:59Nikki Bella in trouble.
00:32:01And Becky from the second rope of the leg drop
00:32:03is enough to retain the championship and a kick out at two.
00:32:07Becky told us flat out, Wade, when we were talking to her,
00:32:10that it's the fans thing.
00:32:11The fact that they did not accept her when she returned from injury.
00:32:14The fact that they did not like the way she was carrying herself.
00:32:18She blames the fans for everything and the reason she is the way she is.
00:32:21Well, I agree with her.
00:32:23She is the greatest female wrestler on planet Earth today.
00:32:25She's proven that time and time again.
00:32:27Look at the kind of adulation someone like Rhea Ripley gets.
00:32:30Why is Becky Lynch not getting the same kind of response?
00:32:33That's the question.
00:32:34You know what?
00:32:35Screw the fans.
00:32:36Do it for yourself, Becky.
00:32:37Do it for your family.
00:32:38You know, you want respect.
00:32:39You've got to give it back, right?
00:32:40I mean, who didn't throw the respect one way first?
00:32:44I would argue the fans turned on Becky before she said,
00:32:46you know what?
00:32:47Forget it.
00:32:47I don't need you guys anyway.
00:32:52Becky now into the corner.
00:32:54And just a vicious attack by Lynch.
00:32:56Very aggressive, Becky.
00:32:59And this is exactly what you have to do.
00:33:01Becky views Bella as yesterday's news.
00:33:04And she's making a statement tonight in the ring to prove that Bella cannot hang at the level
00:33:08that Becky Lynch has dragged Women's Wrestling 2 over the past few years.
00:33:13If Beck Sploder delivered to Nikki Bella, who is in deep trouble here,
00:33:19the man is dominating.
00:33:26That slap alone was just so disrespectful to Nikki Bella.
00:33:29It may have awakened something inside Bella.
00:33:32I think it fired Nikki up because Nikki fighting back.
00:33:35Forearms to the face of the champion.
00:33:36And a big clothesline by Becky.
00:33:44Quickly into the cover.
00:33:45Hook to the leg and a kick out.
00:33:47Talked about the ring rust a little earlier,
00:33:49and I think it's showing in the early goings here for Nikki Bella.
00:33:52Came out of the blocks red hot.
00:33:5430 to 40 seconds in, though.
00:33:56And it has been one-way traffic ever since.
00:34:04Just trash talking the whole time.
00:34:06There's nothing worse than getting beaten up in the ring.
00:34:08Unable to throw anything back in the opposite direction.
00:34:12And your opponent's having it so easy,
00:34:14they're talking trash in the process.
00:34:17Now Becky into the corner.
00:34:26Becky with a big boot.
00:34:29Explodes out with a clothesline.
00:34:30Cover!
00:34:32Kick out at two by Nikki.
00:34:34And Becky just looks like a little bit sharper than Nikki Bella so far.
00:34:39Every time Nikki Bella tries to muster up a little bit of offense,
00:34:42just beaten to the punch by Becky Lynch.
00:34:48And Nikki able to step out of harm's way.
00:34:54Becky this time.
00:34:55And Becky caught by Nikki.
00:34:57Great counter.
00:34:58And Nikki now with a forearm counter on the nose.
00:35:01That was clubbing right to the jaw on the second time.
00:35:04And now Becky perhaps getting rocked.
00:35:05And we're getting a slugfest.
00:35:16And the uglier this turns,
00:35:18the perhaps the more it advantages Nikki Bella.
00:35:21Maybe not as Becky buries the knee.
00:35:24Now Becky went for the uppercut.
00:35:26Caught her with a kick to the midsection.
00:35:28How smooth is Becky Lynch?
00:35:30Just unmatched finesse.
00:35:33And Nikki with a clothesline drop the champ.
00:35:36And another one by Nikki Bella.
00:35:37Who's starting to build momentum.
00:35:39Drop kick drops Becky.
00:35:40Yeah, Nikki Bella finally remembering exactly who she is.
00:35:44Finally finding that competitor
00:35:45that took her to the top in the past.
00:35:47And it was...
00:35:48That baseball slide drives Becky to the floor.
00:35:51These are stinging shots.
00:35:52In front of the announce table.
00:35:53And now bouncing Becky off our table.
00:35:57And now off the French announce table.
00:35:59This is about the most important thing you can do
00:36:01if you're Nikki Bella.
00:36:02You've got the upper hand.
00:36:03Make it count.
00:36:04Yeah, but keep in mind.
00:36:06Nikki's got to pin or submit the champ.
00:36:08She's got to get Becky back in the ring.
00:36:10That count's getting high.
00:36:11Perhaps getting a little carried away.
00:36:13Here is Nikki Bella.
00:36:14Focus on what is important.
00:36:16That is winning the goal tonight, Nikki.
00:36:21And Nikki Bella suddenly looks like
00:36:23a very different human being
00:36:24than the one that started this match.
00:36:28And a big clothesline in the corner to Becky.
00:36:34Not even close from Nikki Bella.
00:36:37And Nikki kicks it too
00:36:39as Becky looked to retain.
00:36:41Well, Nikki left.
00:36:41Well, a leap of faith really
00:36:44that did not come close whatsoever
00:36:46to Becky Lynch.
00:36:47She was nimble enough
00:36:48to avoid that massive strike
00:36:50that was coming her way.
00:36:51And wait up, Cole.
00:36:52Look what we're going for here.
00:36:54Becky Lynch trying to lock in the disarmer
00:36:56on Nikki Bella who's able to counter.
00:36:59Now Nikki looking maybe for the rack attack 2.0.
00:37:02She's hit Becky with this before.
00:37:03Bringing out the big guns at this point.
00:37:06The heavy artillery.
00:37:12And Becky runs into another right.
00:37:14Bella just sensed that.
00:37:15Sensed on her tail.
00:37:17And here we go, Cole.
00:37:20Nikki with Becky up again.
00:37:21Now Becky in the counter.
00:37:23Driving Nikki to the mat.
00:37:24Kick out by Bella at two.
00:37:27And I'll give all the credit in the wall
00:37:29for the fact that Nikki Bella
00:37:30is still taking in this one.
00:37:32She's been put through hell
00:37:33by the Intercontinental champ.
00:37:37And these are the moments
00:37:39that lack of ring sharpness
00:37:40really starts to tell
00:37:42in a competitor.
00:37:43Nikki Bella is in the deep water
00:37:45at this point.
00:37:46It's something that Becky Lynch is used to.
00:37:48She's had these reps of late.
00:37:50Yeah, one thing you can say about Becky
00:37:54is she's been a fighting champion.
00:37:58She hasn't avoided
00:37:59putting the championship on the line.
00:38:06Remember Becky would beat Lyra
00:38:08back at Money in the Bank in June
00:38:10and then knock off Lyra and Bailey
00:38:12at Evolution.
00:38:13Beat Lyra at SummerSlam.
00:38:16Now went for the rack attack again.
00:38:18Becky Lynch able to duck underneath
00:38:20now with Nikki on her shoulder.
00:38:22Lynch just has that rack attack
00:38:23so well scouted.
00:38:31Now Nikki took a little too much time.
00:38:33Becky able to send her out to the apron.
00:38:36Nikki with a shoulder now to the champion.
00:38:43Nikki took a little too much time
00:38:45going up the ropes
00:38:46and Becky made her pay.
00:38:47Both women have absorbed
00:38:48a ton of punishment
00:38:49at this point in the matchup.
00:38:52You feel like one big shot
00:38:53at any point could end this one.
00:38:55It is hanging in the balance
00:38:57and a brawl right up there
00:38:59on the turnbuckles.
00:39:04Becky now, Nikki top rope
00:39:05and a silver punch by Lynch.
00:39:09Cover.
00:39:09Now one, two, three.
00:39:11Another near fall for the champ
00:39:13but now into an arm bar.
00:39:15Becky with an arm bar locked in
00:39:16and Nikki great job blocking it.
00:39:19Yeah, you have to block that immediately
00:39:20or you are getting it snapped on
00:39:22but two way perhaps for Nikki Bala.
00:39:24Hyper extension of the elbow.
00:39:27You got to wonder if Nikki going to tap here.
00:39:29So close but turning it round.
00:39:30Wow.
00:39:31That was a great counter
00:39:32forcing Becky to kick out.
00:39:34Kill two birds with one stone.
00:39:35And now Nikki, look at this.
00:39:36Nikki with a submission move of her own.
00:39:39This is the fearless lock.
00:39:41If she can get it locked in.
00:39:43Nikki's taken out a number of opponents
00:39:44in her career with that
00:39:45but Becky Lynch able to counter.
00:39:48Now looking for the disarmer.
00:39:52Great move by Becky.
00:39:53Nice roll through transition there
00:39:55but Bala too sharp for it.
00:39:58And now Becky up on Nikki.
00:40:00Shoulders!
00:40:01That electric chair
00:40:02sends Becky to the mat.
00:40:03Both women are completely spent here
00:40:07but perhaps the advantage
00:40:09has swung the way of Nikki Bala.
00:40:11Ah, now.
00:40:12Make it with a nice takedown.
00:40:13Cover of the champion.
00:40:15Near fall for Nikki Bala.
00:40:17How frustrating must that be?
00:40:19This deep into a matchup
00:40:20you start hitting the big moves
00:40:22and still it's not enough
00:40:24but I'll say right now
00:40:25Nikki Bala
00:40:26is looking the fresher of the two.
00:40:28The champ is in trouble.
00:40:31Yeah, but Nikki's got to capitalize.
00:40:32She's got the champ on the ropes here.
00:40:34Yeah, this is where those instincts
00:40:36of having repetitious matchups
00:40:39being baffle-hardened.
00:40:41Where are you going to go to next?
00:40:43There's no time to think.
00:40:44Ah, nice move by the champ.
00:40:46Hanging Nikki up on the top rope.
00:40:47Now a kick to Nikki Bella.
00:40:51Another one to the face.
00:40:52Completely peppered with shots here
00:40:55and once again going up top
00:40:57is the mat.
00:41:00Becky has to roll through
00:41:01as Nikki rolls out of harm's way.
00:41:03And now Nikki.
00:41:06Bala face first.
00:41:09Trying to drag Becky
00:41:11and once again
00:41:12going for the fearless lock
00:41:13and this time she's got it locked in.
00:41:15Nikki's got the fearless lock
00:41:17locked in this time around.
00:41:18Becky has to make it in the ropes
00:41:20to force some sort of break here.
00:41:21A mad scramble for the champ
00:41:23to attain her championships
00:41:25and just about breaks the hold.
00:41:28I don't know how much damage
00:41:29has been done to the body
00:41:30of the champ with that hold
00:41:32but maybe that was the moment
00:41:34that Nikki Bella needed
00:41:35to win this one.
00:41:37Yeah, you saw a bit of frustration
00:41:38on Nikki's face.
00:41:39She thought she had Becky there
00:41:41and Becky with a wherewithal
00:41:43to make it to the rope
00:41:43to force a break.
00:41:44Well, she's gone for the move
00:41:46on two separate occasions
00:41:47and perhaps that was the game plan.
00:41:50That's how you win the title
00:41:51and things have suddenly turned
00:41:53really ugly for Nikki Bella.
00:41:56Yeah, Becky Lynch understanding now
00:41:57that she's in complete control
00:41:59after sending Nikki into the steps
00:42:01and she breaks the count
00:42:02wants to do more damage
00:42:03to the challenger.
00:42:06And I'm not so sure
00:42:07Becky Lynch would be upset
00:42:09with a double count
00:42:10out of this point.
00:42:11She would retain the gold
00:42:12in the process
00:42:13but perhaps making a statement
00:42:15against Bella
00:42:15is even more important.
00:42:17Looking for the manhandle slam
00:42:18on the steps.
00:42:19Nikki Bella
00:42:19thriving.
00:42:21Becky head first
00:42:22into the post.
00:42:25And now it's Nikki
00:42:26taking over.
00:42:27No!
00:42:28Bella bust her
00:42:29on the steps
00:42:30by Nikki.
00:42:31Well, Becky Lynch's brains
00:42:33are completely scrambled.
00:42:35Won't be able to think.
00:42:36Won't be able to defend herself.
00:42:37Bella can attack at will here.
00:42:39And now Nikki
00:42:40going to lift Becky
00:42:41up into position
00:42:42looking for the
00:42:42rack attack
00:42:432.0
00:42:44didn't have enough
00:42:45as Becky was able
00:42:46to dunk underneath
00:42:47and now manhandle slam.
00:42:48Becky's own move
00:42:49against her
00:42:50for the title.
00:42:52Kick out by Lynch.
00:42:53Oh, what an insult
00:42:55it would have been
00:42:57for Becky Lynch
00:42:58to lose to her own move.
00:43:03Nikki's got to
00:43:04keep her foot
00:43:05on the gas, Wade.
00:43:06I've got to be impressed
00:43:07with Nikki Bella
00:43:07at this point.
00:43:08The longer this match
00:43:09is done,
00:43:09the better she's getting.
00:43:10And she's got
00:43:11Becky's own
00:43:12disarmor locked in.
00:43:14Or at least
00:43:15attempting to.
00:43:16And Becky
00:43:17looking to counter.
00:43:19Jerome, move.
00:43:20You know how to
00:43:20reverse it better
00:43:21than anyone to.
00:43:22Wait a second.
00:43:23Becky, roll through.
00:43:24Shoulders down
00:43:25on Nikki.
00:43:25Becky wins.
00:43:26Here is your winner
00:43:32and still
00:43:34the women's
00:43:36Intercontinental Champion
00:43:38the fan
00:43:40Becky Lynch.
00:43:43Our championships
00:43:44are won
00:43:45in a moment
00:43:46of brilliance.
00:43:47We saw that
00:43:47exact move before
00:43:49at the Evolution
00:43:50PLA.
00:43:51It's what won the match
00:43:52for Becky Lynch
00:43:53there and she's done
00:43:54it again tonight.
00:43:56Sheer brilliance,
00:43:57sheer innovation
00:43:58and I'm going to

00:49:18That's it, that's it, that's it!
00:49:19Oh, my God!
00:49:33Can I talk to him for a second?
00:49:36Level with Muse.
00:49:38Are you good to go tonight?
00:49:40I can go, AP.
00:49:41Look, I hear what you're saying to me, but I feel like medical's on the verge of saying something else.
00:49:44So, I need you to just hit me with the truth.
00:49:46Man, I don't give a damn what medical say, AP.
00:49:49Last thing my cousin said to me, go out there and win that World Heavyweight Championship, right?
00:49:54And they just put him on a stretcher.
00:49:56AP, tonight, I'm bringing home the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:50:01Yee!
00:50:06Perhaps Jay is more dangerous than ever.
00:50:09Than ever.
00:50:10Tonight.
00:50:11Well, Rusev's return was supposed to be a comeback story, but Sheamus turned it into a bar fight that wouldn't end.
00:50:16The two have beaten each other all over America in weeks of backstage brawls, but Adam Pearce, no choice.
00:50:21Break out the barrels and the shillelaghs, because tonight it's all legal.
00:50:25Sheamus and Rusev collide in a good old-fashioned Donnybrook match with no disqualifications.
00:50:31Live, next.
00:50:32This will be a brawl.
00:50:33Rusev and Sheamus.
00:50:34This all began when Sheamus believed that Rusev was being a bully to the Alpha Academy and set up with Tozawa and company.
00:50:48It's 5-9!
00:50:49Let's go!
00:50:50Let's go!
00:50:51Let's go!
00:50:52Let's go!
00:50:53One of those bros who sent me to the hospital for a month.

00:51:01Let's go!
00:51:02Let's go!

00:51:25Let's go!
00:51:26Let's go!
00:51:27Let's go!
00:51:28Kudos to Sheamus for hanging in this war, but tonight belongs to Rusev.
00:51:42When I came back, did my so-called friend Sheamus come to congratulate me, or did he try to pick a fight?
00:51:48I know what Sheamus already knew, that I'm better than him, tougher than him, and superior to him.
00:51:55So guess what? We're having a rematch!
00:51:58I didn't think we were going out without the check.
00:52:01Looking to end this one early with a bro kick. Here we go! Buckle up, grit your teeth!
00:52:09Rusev has taken control!
00:52:15Rusev exposes the turnbuckle once again, looking to win in controversial manner for the second straight time.
00:52:23Rusev bounced off the exposed turnbuckle!
00:52:25The official doesn't see. Rusev with a shillelagh!
00:52:34Sheamus beats Rusev for the first time!
00:52:38Welcome back to the WWE.
00:52:40But now Rusev with Sheamus and Shillelagh!
00:52:47I will no longer listen to people who tell me who hurts.
00:52:51I will now hurt anyone that I wanted to.
00:52:55I'm not about to accept defeat at the hands of the Celtic Warrior.
00:52:59I am coming to break your mind, body, and spirit.
00:53:09The Celtic Warriors are on a rampage!
00:53:13Thanks to me, the world remembers who the real Rusev is.
00:53:18The Celtic Warriors are on a rampage!
00:53:20I am!
00:53:20You wanna think of this?
00:53:21Something's gotta be done about this.
00:53:26And Christ, you know, he's not out of your system!
00:53:28He's not your own back that's got it from!
00:53:33I want to try and rip you bleed and head up!
00:53:36I want the Rusev back!
00:53:37Your lack of suffering ends now.
00:53:44Get in between these two at your own peril.
00:53:50Don't forget, I made you relevant again.
00:53:54You picked your own poison, my friend.
00:53:57So my conscience is clear of what I'm about to do.
00:54:07The following is a good old-fashioned Donnybrook match!
00:54:16In this match, there are no countouts, no disqualifications, no holds barred.
00:54:24The only way to win is by pinfall or submission.
00:55:04Introducing first, from Bulgaria!
00:55:06are you okay obviously genuinely disgusting things i've ever got banged up by roman reigns
00:55:22his body a little earlier so apologies everyone oh rusev uh he's got his uh battle face on
00:55:28here tonight you know seamus is a winning record in these donnybrook matches
00:55:31i think rusev may be at a disadvantage well seamus may have the experience in this kind of match but
00:55:38rusev is a die hard fan of his local footy team locomotive blocked him and he spent many nights
00:55:44brawling around the pubs of europe against the best hooligans this continent can offer and we're
00:55:50getting a fight tonight talking about fights however look who's here it is morgan of our last
00:55:56pirate chariere he's a featherweight ufc fighter at a poissy france chariere coming up a technical
00:56:04ko victory over nate landweer just weeks ago on ufc fight night great to have him here
00:56:10to watch this one that is gonna be a banger

00:56:32noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo baby
00:56:41what were you just buzzed at my ear thing for?
00:56:42he said he cocked
00:56:46his opponent
00:56:48ripped up with Ironman
00:56:50weighing
00:56:51at two hundred
00:56:53and sixty-seven pounds
00:56:56SHAEADNE HECK
00:57:02this is gonna be a banger for the fifth time ever a good old-fashioned donny brook match
00:57:13and the first one in almost a year here in wwe and that shillelagh that sheamus is carrying
00:57:20hey that's legal under these rules well the referee's taking it off and it has to be away
00:57:25from sheamus at least for the bell to ring and we've got two men intentionally staring each
00:57:31other down for the faction mates in the dreadful league of nations kicked you out of the league
00:57:38of nations best thing that ever happened to me trust me two alpha balls who do not like the
00:57:46sight of each other yeah throwing down in paris yeah sheamus the only superstar to have pinned
00:57:51rusev since rusev returned to wwe rusev holds the career lead and matches between these two but
00:58:00this really uh is the rubber match of the recent rivalry look at sheamus now pound and ground oh
00:58:06god the way we started off here this may be one of the shortest matches in history immediately hitting
00:58:12tens against each other potato after potato sheamus and rusev battled each other for the better part of
00:58:19a decade here in wwe i'll tell you right now we teamed up at wrestlemania in 2016 against the new day i had
00:58:28to break up a fight in the gorilla position before we went out between sheamus and rusev that was before
00:58:35the match even started there's a lot of bitterness between these two about the way sheamus was running
00:58:41the league of nations and that bitterness has never left rusev
00:58:47these men battled for the united states championship at one point in their career and now this is just
00:58:52about beating the hell out of each other who's the bigger man this is personal you know coming into
00:58:59this one you're getting the hell beaten out of you you're gonna beat the hell out of your opponent the
00:59:04question is who can take more abuse both condition out we know that but somebody's crumbling tonight
00:59:12two of the toughest men on the planet
00:59:16kidney shot by sheamus and now blows to the midsection knee by rusev now rusev looking to suplex
00:59:23sheamus into the tables sheamus able to counter and deliver a suplex of his own
00:59:28sheamus's boots turn to lead whenever he wants to trust me he's kicked me with him enough times but
00:59:34those heavy boots as sheamus came in handy there rusev just didn't have the power to lift a big irishman
00:59:41and now rusev driven into the barricade by sheamus the celtic warrior a four-time world champion
00:59:51has a hall of fame resume with the united states titles and tag team titles a rumble victory money in the
00:59:57bank once king of the ring it is astounding that sheamus has had over 15 years at the very top of
01:00:04this game this fighting style has not changed with age usually you slow down a little you have to
01:00:11amend when you're fighting old father time no kendo stick by rusev oh rusev completely sucking in
01:00:17sheamus there sheamus with that shillelagh he thought he was getting a cheap shot in but no denied
01:00:23now rusev look at the kendo stick like a baseball bat
01:00:32these are those game-changing moments who gets the big shots in first in a match like this and now
01:00:39rusev fresh is a daisy sheamus looks like he's been hit by a mack truck and now rusev with same
01:00:48sheamus in position here on the apron usually sheamus will use this for the 10 beats of the
01:00:53modern door rusev go for the eyeballs there perfectly legal in this match and rusev delivering sheamus's own
01:01:00move to it like the thug of a bass drum live your diaphragm now sheamus sheamus has welts building
01:01:15all over his body how can a human being take as much punishment as sheamus had like this over 15 20 years
01:01:22yeah the cumulative punishment every match sheamus has is a war it doesn't matter who he's taking on
01:01:29you have to bring your heaviest artillery with this man there's no light days in there no light
01:01:35work with sheamus rusev exposing the turnbuckle sheamus went for the irish curse backbreaker and now
01:01:41oh he delivers one there rusev knew just how dangerous that was scrambled out the first time
01:01:47sheamus was not letting him get away that easy and these men know each other so well know how to counter
01:01:52each other's offense they've been hitting with everything their opponent can throw at them over
01:01:58the years now it's sheamus's turn to use the kendo stick as a weapon
01:02:13oh and sheamus plowing through rusev smashing in the adam's apple of the bulgarian
01:02:22i'll tell you right now all european wrestlers when we come back to this continent
01:02:26no matter who you're fighting you raise your game you want to put on a good showing you feel like
01:02:31this is our territory both these european men do not want to give a quarter this evening
01:02:37sheamus has welts all over his body and it hasn't slowed him down he spent an entire career with welts
01:02:43all over his body it just makes him even tougher it makes him fight harder it fires him up it wakes him up
01:02:49it's terrifying not quite sure how many chairs sheamus needs but
01:02:54that's a trio there
01:02:57locking up something menacing here
01:03:02along with the chair and missed
01:03:04rusev now caught him with a heel kick and the chair bouncing off the face of sheamus
01:03:08cover by rusev remember you can only win via pinfall or submission and that right there we just witnessed is a
01:03:15major edge that rusev has over almost every heavyweight out there the virtue of his
01:03:21southern explosive movements that make all of the heavyweights look slow in comparison rusev has that
01:03:28yes sudden impact of rusev and then the impact of the steel chair of the spine of sheamus now to the mid
01:03:35section
01:03:40it's that explosive movement that opens up the doorway for this maximum brutality
01:03:51yeah rusev thrives off chaos
01:03:56i'll tell you right now you mentioned earlier you felt like this started because
01:04:00sheamus was being excuse me rusev was being something of a bully to the alpha academy i'll
01:04:06argue that sheamus his style has to be a bully his entire career and bullies don't like other bullies
01:04:14that's the real hatred between these two
01:04:15sheamus sheamus just he's begging for rusev to assault him
01:04:22i told you the hobby you hit him
01:04:24it's all that he gets
01:04:28this is not
01:04:31this is not math fuel for any opponent of sheamus and sheamus intercepts the chair
01:04:36and rusev with a kick to the midsection
01:04:45you don't dare lose oh that bloody knee right off the jaw
01:04:49knee to the dome is it enough kickouts
01:04:52and there's no one home for rusev right now glassy iden if sheamus could drop the hammer here he's got this one
01:04:58and how quickly sheamus turns it around absorbs that punishment shrugs it off
01:05:13can rusev do the same
01:05:15now sheamus is going to put rusev in position
01:05:22for the original 10 beats of the modern
01:05:26just listen
01:05:26i can feel the vibrations buzzing through the arena on that one
01:05:43you've felt that before haven't you i have indeed once too many times and now sat by you
01:05:49oh sheamus up over the bar getting crushed by the bar on the other side
01:05:55i've seen sheamus slumped over a few bars in my time
01:06:00i'm sure that one was a bit more painful than normal
01:06:06rusev wanted to use the bar stool and sheamus able to thwart that
01:06:10i just got chills i don't see any beers in this bottle that's my main issue sheamus looks like he's built up a bit of a first someone pour him a pint of the black stuff
01:06:36and rusev now rusev trying to escape through the arena there's no count outs in this match
01:06:45and technically it can go wherever it wants and sheamus with a shillelagh
01:06:50that has to be the most devastating beats of the bottom we have ever seen
01:07:13rusev just collapsing to the floor and now sheamus dragging him back into the ringside area
01:07:22well rusev is a beaten man at this point of course pinfall submissions have to take place in the ring
01:07:28which is why sheamus didn't effectively win the match right there and then
01:07:32but it looks like victory is imminent
01:07:39and sheamus lifting rusev up on his shoulders
01:07:43i don't think he was going for white noise rusev able to avoid that now
01:07:46driven into the chair that rusev set up
01:07:49balling on his own sword and sheamus looking to put the finishing touches to this masterpiece
01:07:56sheamus with the celtic cross
01:08:03is it enough and the donny brook match continues oh such a devastating landing
01:08:09sheamus will not like the sound of that
01:08:21after that high cross landing on the neck of rusev but we know what's coming next michael cole
01:08:28beating off the 30 000 plus in paris
01:08:49but for the pro kick and rusev scooted out of harm's way absolute brilliance from rusev just when you
01:08:55think his wits have left him after that beating him what the hell are you doing here sheamus you're
01:08:59not a cruiserweight don't tell him that sheamus top rope and rusev oh that was a critical mistake
01:09:08by sheamus rusev had the wherewithal to move out of the way grab the kendo and deliver it to the mid
01:09:14section of sheamus just got babe roof right to the midsection home run it's getting even worse now for
01:09:21the celtic warrior who had victory within his clutches oh wait you called it out sheamus doesn't
01:09:28often go to the top rope sometimes you get a little excited you know you've got to do something drastic
01:09:34to put away an opponent like rusev as tough as this big bulgarian and now this broke they're slamming the
01:09:41steps off the face of sheamus who collapses to the to the floor sheamus stepped out of his comfort zone and
01:09:48rusev was ready there to make him pay for the mistake now the bar apparently is back in play
01:09:56you know how much those things weigh i pay guys to move now
01:10:01now rusev separating the steps separating sheamus's head from his shoulders the way this is looking
01:10:15elliot cooking up rusev anything he wants rusev nasty stuff in mind
01:10:22oh and sheamus slam through the bar and that could be last call for sheamus oh my god the back
01:10:32of sheamus's head catching the edge of that bar that simply did not break that could be a ko
01:10:38to sheamus effectively a rabbit punch from that bar yeah but remember the pinfall and submission must take
01:10:44place wade inside the ring which feels pretty much academic now sling that big irishman in the ring
01:10:50cover him it's game over and rusev now into the ring in control kick to the back and you know what
01:10:59this means rusev with the accolade the submission move locked into sheamus james a man i have felt is
01:11:09incapable of tapping out at times but the pain may be overwhelming the spirit at this point and this is
01:11:16how rusev beat sheamus for the united states championship 11 years ago with the accolade
01:11:21with sheamus not going to give up yet back to his feet rusev in trouble now onto the steel chairs
01:11:29and you saw sheamus despite the obvious agony and exhaustion just with a glance from a corner of his eye
01:11:36spot that steel chair sitting there and thought oh yeah rusev screw you
01:11:48the wwe fans here and here are showing their appreciation for what these two men are putting
01:11:54themselves through here tonight well we knew what we were getting didn't recall when they put these two
01:12:00together in this kind of matchup maximum agony hey we invite our pleasure we invited sheamus out for
01:12:06a beer last night he said he couldn't come because he had to be 100 for this yeah that's the first time
01:12:12sheamus has ever turned down a night out that shows you how much this means to sheamus it shows you how
01:12:18seriously he takes the threat of rusev as they clamber near those old-fashioned out of their beer barrels or
01:12:24wine barrels or whiskey barrels but who cares
01:12:34oh sheamus as he was trying to drag rusev up on the top of those whiskey barrels
01:12:42and rusev now rusev is gonna oh what an iconic moment he's gonna lock the accolade in on top of the
01:12:50whiskey barrels but remember even if sheamus taps out or it doesn't matter because the submission has
01:12:56to take place inside the ring cannot win a match there but sheamus may well have his back broken
01:13:03and then it really is game over jamis trying once again to find his way out of the accolade
01:13:10barrels wobbling all over the place and combined amount of probably 550 plus pounds between those two
01:13:17probably some a good single malt in there open after this one and now sheamus
01:13:23rusev look at a few damage sheamus fighting back here famous with the with the elbows
01:13:30somebody is about to have a very very bad night from the top of the the whiskey barrels
01:13:36oh my god from that height the body of rusev smashed through two tables with a white noise and
01:14:06even sheamus came across in that one and the referee taking a very close look yeah jessica carr
01:14:13i just trying to see if both of these men can continue as you know
01:14:20this is awesome indeed providing you're not one of these two competitors i promise you right now our
01:14:26doctor is in sprint position ready to come down and check on these two yeah it's awesome if you're a
01:14:31masochist how the hell is rusev getting up after taking that how's he up first i have no idea i mean
01:14:38rusev was driven through the tables off white noise from the top of those barrels dragging himself back
01:14:43into the ring the absolute brew of a man and close behind him is sheamus i cannot imagine how these two
01:14:51are gonna feel tomorrow rolling out of bed might need a crane to get them out of there but we still need
01:14:57a winner rusev look at he's crawling toward the corner and that's where that shalali is
01:15:05javis is just crawling to a corner to try and pull himself up right the legs aren't working anymore
01:15:11rusev with a shalali in hand
01:15:18looking when these two men have put themselves through they can barely stand
01:15:22over a room that is completely controlled and i'm clear he may have separated that at some point in
01:15:26the matchup and now jonas with a brogue kick a brogue from out of nowhere and a kick out by rusev
01:15:34down how the hell do you kick out the brain of rusev just rattled from one of the hardest bro kicks i
01:15:43have ever seen the lights are on but no one's home take another look at this impact from the bro kick
01:15:52i have never seen the heel connect with a temple quite as properly as that okay how the hell rusev kicked
01:16:00out there's a question that will never be answered okay explain to me this how the hell will rusev kick
01:16:05out of that it's the question that can't be answered cole it's not human it's not mortal what the hell is
01:16:11driving this bulgarian brute jam is trying to drag himself back to his feet again perhaps to look for
01:16:18yet another brogue kick rusev look at rusev trying to pull himself up as well rusev is completely defenseless
01:16:26here we go and rusev with a big moshka kick and sheamus with a knee
01:16:34just embers burning in both men at this point here and up over the top rusev sends him flying
01:16:41with a half a back body drop and a moshka kick to the face sheamus in the corner looking to collapse
01:16:46center of the ring james on complete jelly legs keith in the throat can't breathe and wait up
01:16:51shillelagh in hand and the shillelagh broken across the back of sheamus
01:17:01and now the cover by rusev and sheamus kicked out
01:17:10rusev just shattered the shillelagh across the spine of sheamus and sheamus somehow kicked out
01:17:16these two are simply not human they're not from this planet
01:17:24driven by blind hatred to do superhuman things they're now going to use the shillelagh as he
01:17:31locks sheamus in the accolade and now the shillelagh placed into the mouth of sheamus
01:17:36sheamus trying to fight back somehow but rusev coiling those legs like a constrictor
01:17:41around the waist of sheamus and sheamus is about to tap out
01:17:51here is your winner by submission rusev
01:17:57wade i believe that was that was just i think just the second time in the career of sheamus that
01:18:06he has tapped out tapped out not passed out tapped out in a match and it took the accolade with a
01:18:13shillelagh shoved in his mouth to do it what about 50 other massive impacts to sheamus's body in the
01:18:21process what a war but this is the white noise off those wine whiskey barrels through two tables both
01:18:28ends somehow got off the hardest bro kick you'll ever see but rusev instinctively equal to it and that's
01:18:36how this one stayed alive and this was the closing moment shillelagh broken across the spine of
01:18:41sheamus and the most unique accolade i've ever seen with a shillelagh across the jaw does it
