00:00and Paris 30,000 plus backing John Cena and we're underway Cena Paul at Clash in Paris
00:09wait it's gonna be interesting to see how Logan Paul reacts to this rabid crowd here tonight
00:24yeah they've thrown Paul off his game right from the offset and you can see John Cena milking the
00:29noise for as long as possible knowing full well it was getting under the skin of the maverick Logan
00:34Paul and you know what's interesting about this way this really this rivalry dates back to January
00:40of this year at the Royal Rumble remember Logan Paul John Cena Jey Uso were the final three in
00:46the Royal Rumble match before Cena would eliminate Logan Paul quite the torrid time ever since tagging
00:53together at one point in an incredibly ill-fated tag team we're tagging against each other at times
01:00too these two really do not like one another and for John Cena he says this is going to be a lesson
01:05in respect for Logan Paul tonight teach Logan about respect in the WWE ring clean break by Cena and we
01:13reset yeah and I question that from John Cena teach him about respect when you call them a parasite one
01:19week ago a grossly unfair insult level but a man who has dedicated himself to this for the past four
01:26years well here's a man who's disrespected everyone in WWE he's cheated to win most of his matches he's
01:31used brass knuckles he's used his goofy entourage to get involved that's what Logan Paul's all about
01:36well Logan Paul is all about disrupting short cutting his way to the top of every industry if you have
01:43the smarts and the skills you could do that John Cena had to grow to the top and John Cena is merely
01:50bitter but Logan Paul achieved in four years what John Cena took 20 to do that was an interesting
01:57counter by Logan stopping on the foot of Cena and then delivering the right hand and remember Cena
02:02has to stay away from that titanium loaded right hand of Logan Paul he felt it a couple of weeks
02:08ago on Friday night Smackdown it's a knockout blow and now the body shots by Paul to Cena dropping John
02:13in the corner yeah it's been a lopsided build to this one if you ask me John Cena with the verbal
02:18barbs absolutely tearing strips off Logan Paul but Logan Paul showed the real danger matches aren't won
02:25with words they are won with shots one big shot to the jaw and Cena is down for the count cocky Logan
02:33Paul showing out here and remember this is John Cena's retirement tour the last time is now it wraps in
02:41December tonight Cena would love to leave Paris leave Europe for the final time in his career in a WWE
02:50ring with a victory John Cena is the last bastion of the old school he's taken on the modern
02:56incarnation of what makes a top professional wrestler in Logan Paul now John Cena
03:06delivering the rights to Logan Paul Cena now oh sends Paul to the center of the ring but he lands on his
03:12feet and now a boot to John Cena that's quite anticipating the reflexes of Logan Paul that was
03:22seen as first mistake you've been studying this man the 23 matches that Cena has been using as an insult
03:28he has shown that time and time again oh and the thing is those 23 matches Logan Paul has never had a
03:34bad performance I'm sorry he hasn't he's the way that he has taken his role here in WWE he had one of the
03:41longest United States championships reign in many many years how dare you claim that 23 matches that
03:47sounds terrible right 23 matches that included singles matches against Cody Rhodes against Roman
03:54Reigns matches against Randy Orton yeah the creme de la creme of what we have here in WWE now
04:03of Logan Paul big uppercut by Logan Paul and again these are the type of actions here though
04:08Wade that tick off a lot of people Logan Paul's talented he's got all the tools he's going to be
04:12a world champion someday but then he has to do he hits an uppercut now he's posing for the crowd
04:18you didn't have an issue with John Cena was doing it before the power yeah but the crowd was cheering
04:22Cena they're not cheering Logan Paul he's doing it to egg him on and kick him off
04:27Logan Paul is just sticking out their backside oh
04:29oh god you can yell all you want but Logan Paul is impervious to noise what a clothesline by Cena
04:36you're right that was a classic example of Logan Paul taking his eye off the ball there and John Cena capitalizing
04:49Logan's trying to gather his wits here the senior official Chad Patton working this matchup tonight
04:55he's worth many of John Cena's matches in his career
05:00Cena using those big haymakers against his opponent what so effectively for Logan Paul in the early
05:06going Irish ripped into the corner however Logan catches John with a boot and now Logan blockbuster to
05:11Cena great move by Paul cover gonna hook the inside leg and John kicks out again a bit of a nonchalant cover by Paul
05:18yeah and in the early goings you see immediately we've we've talked ad nauseam about the experience
05:26advantage that John Cena has unquestionably the athletic advantage is in the hands of the younger
05:33man Logan Paul here who can do anything in that ring he can fly with the best of them he can slug it
05:38out with the heavyweights and he's even turning into a technician in his latter years here in WWE
05:44now Logan again just insulting the sellout crowd here tonight over 30,000 and now uh Logan vertical
05:56suplex delayed now on Cena Paul's showing off a tremendous amount of strength here delivering the
06:01vertical suplex to John and I don't think we've seen Logan do that before hooked to the leg now on
06:06Cena and a kick out yeah of all the accolades I just sent the way of Logan Paul I did not mention the
06:11power game at all another aspect you can see he's put muscle on over the past couple of years
06:16building out that frame to be a true prototypical superstar I mentioned before I'll never forget the
06:22night that Logan Paul took Roman reigns to the limit almost stopping Roman reigns record streak as champion
06:30and he was consistently ready to shock the world
06:51I hope you watch it at home can soak all this in because I'm not sure it does justice to what we're
06:57experiencing here tonight in Paris just an unmatched atmosphere and two of the biggest names in the
07:03game right here in the thick of it and look at Logan with that gun wrench bomb bomb and here's the cover
07:09and a kick out again Logan Paul doing some things Wade I've never seen him do before in the ring
07:14he's obviously been preparing for this and the fans of Logan Paul as few of us as they are ask for one
07:22thing some damn respect being thrown the way of the Maverick please I'm begging you listen again
07:27you have to be respectful in order to earn respect and Logan now into the corner and a big uppercut a
07:36running uppercut Cesaro like uppercut from a Logan Paul to Cena there again another wrinkle in this new
07:42strategy from Logan Paul people guessing John Cena and look at it again a nonchalant cover and
07:48Wade I get what you're saying and I think Logan Paul's as talented as anyone in the ring today
07:54you're not going to beat John Cena that way he wasn't planning to beat John Cena he wanted a photo
07:58for social media that will go viral oh but that's what scene is talking about forget about the viral
08:03moments you have an opportunity to beat the greatest of all time here stop screwing around
08:08go for the cover and try to get the win why not do both the reason Logan Paul is here is because
08:12he's the king of viral moments that's what got his spot in the door he's not about to change his spots now
08:20again harks back to the old school John Cena embraced that the grind
08:25the respect again the collision and Cena takes out Logan both men now down
08:31this is a big turning point in this match maybe for John Cena who's been dominated over the last few minutes
08:46completely deep cleating Logan Paul and perhaps turning this match upon his head
08:52Cena back to his feet Paul back to his feet his way John Cena ducks underneath here comes
08:56Cena with a shoulder tackle and now John Cena's starting to build some momentum
09:12and Cena with a five knuckle shuffle vintage Cena on display tonight
09:28and now he's got Logan Paul in position for an attitude adjustment which this kid does need brilliant
09:33by Logan Paul scrambling to the outside and a shot to the gut in the process turning this one around
09:39stemming the tide
09:42now Paul bang close line to Cena
09:46like he was shot out of a cannon and a kick out by John at two oh god such a difficult move to pull off
09:52and that was pulled off about as well as you will ever see on planet earth how damn good is Logan Paul
09:59and Logan now back to his feet
10:10Logan in tremendous shape
10:13time and now
10:15for the top rope as he continues to play with the crowd here in Paris
10:18and the Paul from grace but John Cena got his knees up and now Cena with Logan
10:26for the attitude adjustment a a by John cover Paul kicked out
10:32well this is the moment from the heavens Logan Paul came crashing down on those raised knees
10:42of Cena who bounced immediately with the biggest hitter he has the AA and Logan Paul that internal
10:50toughness that this man has prevailed and keeps it alive but for how much longer
11:02Tina now once again gonna go for a second attitude adjustment on Paul
11:06John Cena's got him center of the ring went for the AA Paul landed on his feet and now
11:11Paul gonna lock Cena into the submission who he's been using no one is to the octopus
11:16made famous by the Hall of Famer and Tony Iwanoki and you see Logan Paul with it locked in on
11:23Cena here the octopus trying to get Cena to tap out but Cena able to reverse
11:27on those tells us Cena a 2D couldn't extend the all that's the issue and Cena powering his way out
11:32and Paul with a roll through shoulders down Cena's got a kick out now going to turn this into an STF
11:38STF STF U is in Cena on Paul and Paul scrambling for those ropes which must feel like a million miles away
11:49the eyeballs are over Paul bulging out of his head sheer agony is Paul gonna tap out there's no shame in it
11:56many many many of men have tapped out to this move by Cena and makes it to the rope but John Cena gonna drag
12:02him back toward the center of the ring and Paul will send Cena to the corner John to the boots
12:10Logan Paul living dangerously now and now John Cena with a tornado DDT drops Paul on the top of
12:16his head he's turned into the cover and a kick out by Logan perhaps on instinct alone it looked like
12:23Logan's eyes rolled in the back of his head when he was left on the top of his head here off the CDT
12:29well this is John Cena changing up the move set to catch out the less experienced Logan Paul
12:35and you're right eyes in the back of the head but somehow able to kick out that's all that boxing
12:40experience when you rock you have to keep rolling and that's exactly what Paul did there great point Wade
12:59like a damn carnival in this arena Cena with Logan on his shoulders again went for another AA Logan Paul
13:08able to counter face first goes Cena that over bomb by Paul cover hook of the leg isn't enough kick out
13:14by John at two sort of smirk on the face of Logan Paul could have hung that leg tight and rolled all the way
13:21on for the shoulders of John Cena and guaranteed a victory there major mistake with that pin from Logan Paul
13:33critical point in the match both men physically spent exhausted
13:40John Cena has one thing well two things Logan Paul doesn't have a experience b he's got 30 000
13:51people behind him i'll tell you right now you might not like the attitude of Logan Paul but he is currently
13:56going toe-to-toe as you would call him with the greatest of all time and he's taken zero shortcuts so far
14:03and this could be the killer blow this with the right hand went for the knockout tackle by Cena
14:14Paul land oh what a move by Paul Logan Paul tremendous athleticism almost beat Cena there connected with
14:23that zigzag rocking the skull of Cena against the map tried to land on his feet landed face first but still
14:30caught off executed after Cena and Cena now is the one living dangerously yeah that ziggler zigzag
14:37delivered to John Cena Logan Paul doing a lot of things we've never seen him do before in the ring
14:43wave that's what you have to do you have to keep evolving people don't respect Logan Paul but if you
14:48watch the game you ignore the theatrics you ignore the arrogance this man is sheer brilliant
14:53well maybe that's the kind of respect John Cena was talking about change your game evolve put the
15:02work in oh okay i'm gaining a lot of respect for Logan and what he's done in the ring here tonight
15:07changing up his game and again uh got caught that time remember that slingshot lariat got caught by John
15:14John planning Logan for the win Paul kicks it too modified flatliner there now Cena reacting instinctively
15:22to what's thrown at him and that was a mistake by Logan Paul going to that well once again it worked
15:27the first time Cena has it figured out now yeah rarely are you going to catch John Cena with the same move
15:34twice Cena is hurting in a big way this is where old father time starts catching up with you John
15:42rolled back the clock in the early goings of this one but you're in deep water now and that hurts you
15:50yeah but John's also understanding the finish lines a few months away he wants to put on the greatest
15:54performances of his career he's got Logan up again Paul though lands on the apron hangs John up top
15:59rope what a stain it would be on this retirement tour if Logan Paul can put away John Cena right now
16:05and now Cena Logan smells blood Logan gonna go back up to the top rope again
16:11and this time oh and a swanton connects and then a standing moonsault to Cena
16:22and again moves that we have not seen Logan Paul use much in his repertoire
16:26car this was the site of the Olympics not so long ago those kind of athletics would have earned
16:34Logan Paul a medal in the gymnastics and John Cena is now in a really really bad way
16:40both men's eyes are telling the story the minds are black
16:56what can you cook up this deep what is the body gonna allow you to do
17:00Logan into the corner with that running uppercut
17:06by controlling the pace is Logan Paul and Cena looks like a beaten man he's in a heap
17:13Logan Paul looks fresh
17:16laser focus on putting this one to back
17:20but again distracted by this audience that's a mistake from Logan Paul he's got
17:26Cena on the ropes here and John Cena took advantage again he went for that uppercut and John Cena moved out of harm's way
17:36and John
17:39oh Paul center of the ring is it enough for Cena to put him away
17:42Logan kicks it to almost a three count again keeping the less experienced star guessing that
17:52double underhook face plant there shocking Logan Paul whose brain has been completely wiped on that landing
18:03but I don't know if Cena has enough left in the tank to make anything of it
18:07Logan Paul's hit Cena with everything he can
18:11not been able to put John away
18:13both men have thrown that bastard both men have taken their opponent's best and they're somehow still take it just about
18:21headbutt by Cena
18:24not doing stuff he hasn't done before either
18:27out of ideas you start throwing that heavy leather and who's got the heaviest leather out of these two I'm gonna say Logan Paul
18:36he's got to be careful
18:43oh
18:46the uppercut that pop-up uppercut almost cost John the match oh god John Cena is one heavy heavy man
18:54the power required to explode in skyward he simply did not get enough look at the connection
19:00of this uppercut look where he's lying you're aiming for the jaw here
19:03and it ended up more chest than anything that is why Cena kicked out I'm taking nothing away from Logan Paul
19:09the man's exhausted it's incredible to believe that off but the connection wasn't in the right place
19:16that is why Cena lives on
19:18and Logan Paul looking down at the wrapped right hand titanium loaded for many years
19:23sheena back to his feet Logan Paul now he uh pulls a shoulder tackle
19:30and now digging into John Cena's repertoire gotta study the greats Michael Cole
19:36it's Logan Paul i love it what a way to proceed to victory this would be
19:51we're gonna be cocking around the right amidst the chorus of boos
20:09and Logan's cockiness almost cost him there well peacocking around at the wrong time is simply
20:29a major faux pas against one of the best in history
20:36right now some trash talking coming across from John Cena perhaps trying to motivate himself in the
20:41process you're clutching at straws no matter where you're at at this point in a match just desperate
20:48to get anything going well wait John's got to be concerned as well I mean Logan kicked out of another
20:53attitude adjustment you hit him with your best shot and you can't beat the man are you really
20:58still the greatest of all time or are those moments fading fast
21:06Cena rocked Paul momentarily and now another headbutt from Cena and Cena he's gonna headbutt his offense now
21:12and now uh oh John got caught oh no he didn't hurricane rana sends paul to the ropes
21:22rogan paul certainly was not expecting you know you gotta be kidding me the cover and a cool rip by
21:28Cena and a kick out jade to roxanne perez right there kick out just in the nick of time
21:37what's the cold red here or the pop rocks as roxanne calls it
21:46and Cena's throwing everything he has at logan paul who's surviving here rolling back the clock to his
21:52u.s title open open challenge rain wow a lot of these moves back then and he's having to dig deep
22:00that's how good logan paul is what normally works is not working tonight against paul paul's too good
22:06ball back to his feet john cena gonna go once again for an a a logan paul though too close to
22:11the ropes long arms able to grab the top rope john sent back to the ropes logan hits him with the right
22:18hand the right hand the right hand by paul for the win still in it it's the right hand that flattened
22:26john cena with a cheap shot in dublin and somehow cena kicks out and logan paul you saw the look on his face
22:35that may have been his last chance he hit cena with that titanium loaded right hand and john
22:42somehow was able to kick out the aa versus the right hand both men have taken them both men have
22:49kicked out both men look badly alive but we still need a winner and this place is rumbling and a
22:56kept up by logan oh my god this deep in the match
23:06and logan now with cena could be dead to rights middle of the ring paul now back to the top rope
23:13and the pull from grace this time connects double it up you've got the man down you've got the man
23:21beat and make sure finish the job logan and a second pull from grace to knock off the great john cena who
23:30gets the shoulder up
23:35the blood draining from the face of logan paul the belief draining from the soul of logan paul this man
23:43really is superman well logan paul now he understands why john bradshaw layfield our commentator
23:52partner said years ago about john cena he dubbed him big match john and there's a reason the never
23:59say die attitude of the 17-time world champion
24:10once again paul gonna mock john cena and this time delivers a five knuckle shuffle
24:18scene is just oh look at this logan paul now looking for the a.a i think john cena able to roll
24:28through and now oh god oh talking about one of his great rivals a styles clash to logan paul
24:40cena black kick out again i'll tell you what cole if you're gonna steal in this industry
24:47steal from the best well many people believe cena's rivalry with aj styles almost a decade ago
24:55was one of the best of cena's career
25:04this place going absolutely bananas they are getting themselves a match of the year contender i can't
25:11tell you i don't think i've ever seen an atmosphere quite like this i've ever experienced anything like
25:17this
25:26and cena now lifting logan paul up on the top rope well both men run out of moves many many minutes ago
25:35now we're going on the fly just figure something out well we're in overtime this is sudden death for
25:40both of these men and now cena who's hit paul with two aas already said if that didn't do the trick
25:47maybe an avalanche a will but paul again fighting out of it fighting to stay alive in the match it may have
25:54turned this around in the process and paul off the top rope cross body cena though rolls through and
26:00and there's the power of the goat
26:10attitude adjustment
26:11and he's not done yet one didn't finish it last time john cena oh and paul again with a right
26:20went for another one
26:21went for another one cena though into the duck underneath attitude adjustment
26:26this is into the cover john cena wins
