00:00can she dominate but now well it's interesting first time ever that these
00:05two women have gone one-on-one here in WWE the last time they actually shared
00:10the same ring was back at the women's rumble in 2018
00:16what's really fascinating to me both women traded a lot of verbal barbs in
00:20the build-up to this one both got very personal very personal in their verbal
00:26attacks bringing personal life and that's something that's normally off-limits
00:29it suggests to me there is a burning hatred between these two women that
00:34has been unspoken for years Becky Lynch did say I don't didn't want to look up
00:39to Nikki Bella I wanted to take Nikki Bella's spot when she first arrived here
00:44in WWE and now Nikki has Becky a bit off the game and early going right to the knee
00:48that was a horrible kick right to the knee of Becky Lynch and that was full impact
00:53right on the knee joint Becky who's been so dominant as champion since hitting live
00:58back with Alkiria back in June Nikki now made a mistake Becky gonna make her pay
01:02driving Nikki Bella into the steel step and I hate to use the word inexperience but
01:08that was a moment of inexperience for a Nikki Bella who's not used to in-ring
01:11competition experience or perhaps just ring rust Wade was ring rust that's my point
01:17she came out of the blocks way too hot over committed Becky Lynch rode out that
01:21brief early storm and now has reverted to type with a man in control and Becky bouncing Nikki's face off
01:31the apron Becky Lynch had a very interesting conversation with her earlier today as Becky now
01:39heads up to the top rope Nikki Bella in trouble and Becky from the second rope with a leg drop isn't enough to
01:45retain the championship and a kick out of two Becky told us flat out Wade and we were talking to her that it's the fans
01:52the fact that they did not accept her when she returned from injury the fact that they did not like the way she was carrying herself she
01:59blames the fans for everything and the reason she is the way she is today well I agree with her she is the greatest female
02:05wrestler on planet Earth today she's proven that time and time again look at the kind of
02:09adulation someone like Rhea Ripley gets why is Becky Lynch not getting the same kind of response that's the question you know
02:15what screw the fans do it for yourself Becky do it for your family you know you want respect you got to give it back
02:21right I mean who didn't throw the respect one way first I would argue the fans turned on Becky before she said
02:27you know what forget it I don't need you guys anyway
02:33Becky now into the corner just a vicious attack by Lynch very aggressive Becky and this is exactly what you have to do
02:42Becky views Bella as yesterday's news and she's making a statement tonight in the ring to prove that Bella cannot hang at the
02:49level that Becky Lynch has dragged Women's Wrestling 2 over the past few years
02:55if Bexploder delivered to Nikki Bella who is in deep trouble here as the man is dominating
03:02come back now this is my way
03:05that slap alone was just so disrespectful to Nikki Bella and may have awakened something inside Bella
03:13I think it fired Nicky up because Nicky fighting back forearms to the face of the champion
03:23and a big clothesline by Becky quickly into the cover hook to the leg and a kick out
03:29talked about the ring rust a little earlier and I think it's showing in the early goings here for Nikki Bella
03:33came out of the blocks red hot 30 to 40 seconds in though and it has been one-way traffic ever since
03:43just trash talking the whole time there's nothing worse than getting beaten up in the ring unable to
03:50throw anything back in the opposite direction and your opponent's having it so easy they're talking trash in
03:56the process now backing Becky into the corner
04:00Becky with a big boot explodes out with a clothesline cover kick out at two by Nikki Becky just looks
04:17like a little bit sharper than Nikki Bella so far every time Nikki Bella tries to muster up a little bit of
04:23offense just beamed to the punch by Becky Lynch
04:30and Nikki able to
04:33step out of harm's way
04:35Becky this time and
04:37Becky caught by Nikki great counter
04:40and Nikki now with a forearm caught her on the nose
04:42that was clubbing right to the jaw on the second time and now Becky perhaps getting rocked and we're getting a slugfest
04:48on the uglier this times the perhaps the more it advantages Nikki Bella maybe not as Becky buries the knee
05:05and now Becky went for the uppercut caught her with a kick to the midsection
05:09how smooth is Becky Lynch just unmatched finesse
05:14and Nikki with a clothesline drop the champ
05:17and another one by Nikki Bella who's starting to build momentum drop kick drop Becky yeah Nikki Bella finally remembering exactly who she is
05:25finally finding that competitor that took it to the top of the past and a
05:29oh that baseball slide drives Becky to the floor and these are staying in front of the announce table and out
05:34bouncing Becky off our table
05:38and now off the French announce table
05:40about the most important thing you can do if you're Nikki Bella you've got the upper hand make it count
05:45yeah but keep in mind
05:47Nikki's got to pin or submit the champ he's got to get back
05:50Becky back in the ring
05:51yeah that count's getting high perhaps getting a little carried away here is Nikki Bella focus on what is important
05:57that is winning the goal tonight Nikki
06:02and Nikki Bella suddenly looks like a very different human being than the one that started this match
06:09on a big clothesline in the corner to Becky
06:14oh not even close from Nikki Bella
06:19and Nikki kicks it too as Becky looked to retain on Nikki left
06:23well a leap of faith really that did not come close whatsoever to Becky Lynch
06:29she was nimble enough to avoid that massive strike that was coming her way and wait up
06:33Cole look what we're going for here yeah Becky Lynch trying to lock in the disarmer on Nikki Bella
06:38who's able to counter
06:39now Nikki looking maybe for the rack attack 2.0 she's hit Becky with this before
06:45bringing out the big guns at this point the heavy artillery
06:52and Becky runs into another right
06:55Bella just sensed that sensed on her tail and here we go Cole
07:01Nikki with Becky up again now Becky in the counter driving Nikki to the mat
07:05kick out by Bella at two and I'll give all the credit in the wall for the fact that Nikki Bella
07:11is still taking in this one she's been put through hell by the Intercontinental champ
07:19and these are the moments that lack of ring sharpness really starts to tell in a competitor
07:24Nikki Bella is in the deep water at this point it's something that Becky Lynch is used to she's had these reps of late
07:31and one thing you can say about Becky she's been a fighting champion
07:39she hasn't avoided putting the championship on the line
07:47Becky would uh beat Lyra back at money in the bank in June and then knock off Lyra and Bailey at Evolution
07:54beat Lyra at SummerSlam
07:56now went for the rack attack again Becky Lynch able to duck underneath now with Nikki on her shoulder
08:03Lynch just has that rack attack so well scouted
08:13now Nikki took a little too much time Becky able to send her out to the apron
08:16Nikki to the shoulder now to the champion
08:24Nikki took a little too much time going up the ropes and Becky made her pay
08:28both women have absorbed a ton of punishment at this point in the matchup
08:33you feel like one big shot at any point could end this one
08:36it is hanging in the balance and a brawl right up there on the turnbuckles
08:45Becky now Nikki top rope and a sliver punch by Lynch
08:50cover
08:52another near fall for the champion now into an arm bar Becky with an arm bar locked in
08:58and Nikki great job blocking it yeah you have to block that immediately or you are getting it snapped
09:03on but two way perhaps for Nikki Bella hyper extension of the elbow
09:08you gotta wonder if Nikki gonna tap here so close but turning it around wow that was a great counter
09:13forcing Becky to kick out kill two birds with one stone
09:16and now Nikki look at this Nikki with a submission move around this is the fearless lock if she can get it locked
09:23in Nikki's taking out a number of opponents in her career with that but Becky Lynch able to counter now looking for the disarmer
09:33great move by Becky nice roll through transition there but Bella too sharp for it
09:40and now Becky up on Nikki shoulders that electric chair sends Becky to the mat
09:46both women are completely spent here but perhaps the advantage has swung the way of Nikki Bella
09:52on out they're giving me the nice takedown cover the champion
09:56near fall for Nikki Bella how frustrating must that be this deep into a matchup you start hitting
10:02the big moves and still it's not enough but i'll say right now Nikki Bella is looking the fresher of
10:09the two the champ is in trouble yeah but Nikki's got to capitalize she's got the champ on the ropes here yeah
10:16this is where those instincts of having rep repetitious matchups being baffle-hardened
10:22where are you gonna go to next there's no time to think ah nice move by the champ
10:27hanging Nikki up on the top rope now a kick to Nikki Bella another one to the face
10:33completely peppered with shots here and once again going up top is the mat
10:41Becky has to roll through as Nikki rolls out of harm's way and now Nikki
10:47Bella face first
10:51trying to drag Becky and once again going for the fearless lock and this time she's got it locked in
10:56Nikki's got the fearless lock locked in this time around Becky has to make it into the ropes to force some sort of break here
11:02a mad scramble for the champ to attain her championship and just about breaks the hold
11:09i don't know how much damage has been done to the body of the champ with that hold but maybe that was the moment
11:15that Nikki Bella needed to win this one yeah you saw a bit of frustration on Nikki's face
11:20she thought she had Becky there and Becky with a wherewithal to make it to the rope to force a break
11:26she's gone for the move on two separate occasions and perhaps that was the game plan that's how you
11:31win the title and things have suddenly turned really ugly for Nikki Bella and Becky Lynch understanding now
11:38that she's in complete control after sending Nikki into the steps and she breaks the count wants to
11:43do more damage to the challenger
11:44and i'm not so sure Becky Lynch would be upset with a double count out at this point she would
11:52retain the gold in the process but perhaps making a statement against Bella is even more important
11:58looking for the manhandle slam on the steps Nikki Bella oh driving Becky head first into the post
12:04and now it's Nikki taking over oh Bella bust her on the steps by Nikki well Becky Lynch's brains are
12:15completely scrambled won't be able to think won't be able to defend herself Bella can attack at will here
12:20and now Nikki gonna lift Becky up into position looking for the rack attack 2.0 didn't have an office
12:27Becky was able to duck underneath it now manhandle slam Becky's on move against her for the title kick out by
12:34Lynch oh what an insult it would have been for Becky Lynch to lose to her own move
12:45Nikki's gotta keep her foot on the gas wave i gotta be impressed with Nikki Bella at this
12:49point the longer this match is now look at this the better she's getting and she's got Becky's own
12:53disarmer locked in or at least attempting to and Becky look at a counter your own move you know how
13:01to reverse it better than anyone to wait a second Becky roll through shoulders down on Nikki Becky wins
13:12here is your winner and still the women's Intercontinental Champion
13:20with the band Becky Lynch well championships are won in a moment of brilliance we saw that exact move
13:29before at the Evolution PLA it's what won the match for Becky Lynch there and she's done
13:35it again tonight sheer brilliance sheer innovation and i'm gonna christen that the lynchpin
13:41lynchpin and this was where Nikki Bella thought she had the match won bouncing
13:48Becky Lynch around hitting that manhandle slammer at the last millisecond a kick up from the champ
13:56and here we go that moment of brilliance what did you call this well Becky Lynch i'm gonna christen it the lynchpin
