00:00No disqualification, no count-offs.
00:03The only way you win this match is by pinfall or submissions.
00:06And the reigning champions do not have to be the team defeated to lose their titles.
00:10Absolutely right, we can see a scenario where perhaps Jack Gable.
00:13Talking to you, Sachs.
00:16Tell him, coach.
00:18Tell him, coach.
00:20Oh, like Gable owed Tez money and a boot to the side.
00:25Oh, roll up.
00:27Trying to get it done quickly.
00:29And it might belong to the most opportunistic team.
00:32When RK-Bro won the titles back, it was a triple threat.
00:35And it looked like it was Alpha Academy's match.
00:37And then Riddle took the victory from them.
00:40It could be the most opportunistic team.
00:42Shoulders down.
00:43Oh!
00:43Roton spoils Gable's plans.
00:45Here comes Angelo Dawkins.
00:47This thing going to break down in a hurry.
00:49The Vipers entered the chat.
00:51Orton disposing of Dawkins.
00:52Gable disposing of Randy Orton.
00:55Montez Ford chucking Gable to the outside.
00:58Chaotic start to this.
00:59Uh-oh!
01:00Over the top!
01:01That is superhuman power possessed by the number one guy of the Alpha Academy, the tree trunk, Otis.
01:10But what we're seeing is you have to have eyes in the back of your head to be successful in a match like this.
01:14Wait a second.
01:15All six in the ring at the same time.
01:17It is Bedlam here to kick off WrestleMania Sunday.
01:21The official having a very hard time getting things settled down a little bit.
01:25Oh!
01:26Montez Ford delivering a kick to Gable.
01:28The action is all over the place already.
01:31Gable and Ford, the lone competitors inside the ring.
01:34Remember, you don't have to worry about a count now.
01:36Whoa!
01:37Holy moly!
01:38Laying out the field is Montez Ford.
01:42Outrageous athleticism from Montez.
01:45And now Gable looking to insert himself into the action.
01:51High risk position from the very top rope.
01:55Oh!
01:56Moonsault!
01:57Gable pulling out all the stops as are the other five competitors in this triple threat tag team match.
02:07Look once again at the athleticism of Montez Ford.
02:12Chad Gable looking to one up Montez and God forbid Otis ever tried something like that.
02:18Oh, my gosh.
02:19I don't want to see that.
02:20All of the energy expended so early right now.
02:23Nobody worried about pacing.
02:24Nobody worried about a long match.
02:25Jimmy, all this speaks to the competitive nature we've seen week after week in the Raw Tag Team Division.
02:30When you're talking about WrestleMania, the Raw Tag Team Titles on the line, you have to expect this face.
02:35And in a sudden death environment, you can't afford to look for a long match.
02:39You want to end this thing as quickly as possible.
02:41Otis now the legal man!
02:43Riddle was battered by Otis.
02:46Otis making his presence felt in a hurry.
02:50The effect that Chad Gable has had on Otis.
02:53He has become a vicious specimen.
02:55Not just a physical specimen.
02:57An opportunistic, vicious specimen in the ring.
02:59No question about it.
03:01Just past Riddle.
03:05Otis has bought into everything from Chad Gable.
03:09Whether it's how you train.
03:10How you eat.
03:11Your mindset.
03:12And this is the result.
03:13The most dominant version of Otis we've ever seen.
03:17Otis just imposing his will on Riddle.
03:20And remember, if Riddle somehow gets pinned here, Alpha Academy will be the new tit!
03:24That's what he's thinking about!
03:25Do it!
03:26Big splash, but no cover!
03:30Oh, a slap to the face, Cerrito.
03:32We've seen this.
03:33This is the case of Otis simply savoring the moment.
03:36This is the grandest stage of them all.
03:37This is the showcase of the Immortals.
03:39That could be a mistake, Corey.
03:40I agree with you.
03:41I'm just trying to get inside the mind.
03:44The two-inch thick skull of the tree trunk, Otis.
03:49Otis taking his time and thinking more punishment upon one half of the Raw Tag Team Champions.
03:55And I think the crowd here in AT&T Stadium are just inciting Otis.
03:58Just making the big man angry.
04:00And that does not bode well for Riddle.
04:03We've seen it cost Otis before in previous matches.
04:06Where we've seen that he might be able to get the fall.
04:09He takes his time and it's cost his team.
04:11Otis tagging in the master.
04:13Chad Gable.
04:14Beautiful.
04:15Northern Lights over.
04:16Kick out with power from Riddle.
04:19Riddle has taken a tremendous amount of punishment in the early moments of this matchup.
04:23And I don't foresee that slowing any time soon.
04:26Working the left knee.
04:28Cranking on, taking the energy out of Riddle.
04:31Gable, an expert technician on the mat.
04:34Riddle desperately trying to...
04:35Shoulders are down.
04:36He's got to keep one of them up at all times.
04:38Riddle realizing how dire this situation is and how desperately he needs to tag in Randy Orton,
04:44the pressure member of the team.
04:46Riddle able to create some separation between himself and Gable.
04:50Oh, goodness.
04:51Spinning attack once again on the left leg.
04:53Oh, Montez!
04:55The height on that drop kick all the way to the chin of Chad Gable.
04:59Ford taking advantage of the no disqualification rule.
05:02Oh, my God.
05:03Face first goes Montez Ford.
05:04Looking for the cover.
05:05Shoulders down.
05:06One, two, one, two.
05:07Kick out just before three for Montez Ford.
05:08Chad Gable got to be feeling extremely confident right now as we take another look at the power of Gable's legs.
05:23Launching Montez Ford three-quarters of the way across the WrestleMania ring.
05:29And now Gable continuing to work.
05:32Ford again.
05:33Tags in.
05:34Dawkins.
05:35Angelo Dawkins fresh.
05:36Explosive on the move.
05:38Deceptively agile.
05:40Back elbow finds the mark.
05:42Riddle taking a ride.
05:44Now you feel the momentum shift in favor of the Street Profits.
05:48Angelo Dawkins speed, explosiveness, technique.
05:52He's got it all.
05:53Silencer connects.
05:54Look at the finish it.
05:55Oh, no.
05:56It's flattening the entire field.
05:59The expression on the face of Riddle says it all.
06:04Riddle needs to make a tag in short order as we look once more at the dominance of Angelo Dawkins.
06:12No friends in there.
06:13The nature of this kind of match.
06:15Otis, as you saw, flattening everybody.
06:18Tag team partner, truly your only ally.
06:21Riddle out of harm's way.
06:22Just in time.
06:23Gable tags himself in.
06:25Riddle's got a clear path, but not enough time.
06:27No way is Riddle going to reach Randy.
06:29Smart move going to the ankle lock.
06:32Keep getting from tagging Randy Orton, but got to twist out.
06:36Riddle has a great submission game, but knees his way out.
06:39Desperation time.
06:40Here comes Dawkins now to impede the path of Riddle.
06:45Fireman's carry.
06:47Oh!
06:48Bro to sleep.
06:50Riddle has just removed all the obstacles.
06:53Can Riddle tag in the Viper?
06:55Does he have the energy to tag in the Apex Predator?
06:58It's in closer.
07:00And he gets it!
07:02Here comes Orton.
07:03Here comes Montez Ford.
07:05Down goes Ford again and again.
07:08Oh my God.
07:09And timing for Montez!
07:11Randy Orton all sorts are fired up.
07:14Let's be honest, when it comes to WrestleMania,
07:16this is Randy Orton's home away from home.
07:19No one is comfortable and familiar with the bright lights and spectacle as Orton tonight.
07:25What a beautiful escape from Montez Ford.
07:28What a reversal!
07:30Ford just dribbled off our table.
07:32Oh, he's not done!
07:33He does!
07:35Off our table and then through our table.
07:38Jimmy, I hope you got insurance on that iPad, pal.
07:42Come on!
07:43Randy Orton becoming completely unglued in this Raw Tag Team Championship match.
07:50The Viper has regained control and a host of RK Pro retaining their titles.
07:57Little rocks Dawkins with a knee.
08:00Good teamwork!
08:01Oh!
08:02He's making a teamwork!
08:04Classic play from the Orton playbook!
08:09Face down go the Street Profits!
08:12For future reference, Jimmy Cole calls that vintage Orton.
08:15Oh boy!
08:16And now it looks like both Riddle and Orton are going to that place!
08:25Vipers in stereo!
08:27Eyes locked on this!
08:28Oh, maybe not!
08:29Just in time, the Alpha Academy turning things around!
08:33Hard decision.
08:34Oh my God!
08:35You cannot afford to let anyone get a fall!
08:37Otis just knocked Dawkins into next week.
08:40There's a window of opportunity right now.
08:42Montez Ford isolated.
08:43Chad Gable perched on the top rope!
08:45Face down once again!
08:46Montez Ford, this might be it!
08:47Pass it flat!
08:48One!
08:49Two!
08:50Oh!
08:51Taking a page out of the playbook of newly minted Hall of Famers, the Steiners.
08:52Let's look one more time at the impact of his back elbow right on the temple of Angelo Dawkins.
09:06Followed up with a bulldog from the top rope!
09:10And now!
09:11Yeah, that bulldog didn't finish off Montez Ford!
09:14This might!
09:15Otis!
09:16From the middle!
09:17Oh!
09:18We got interference!
09:19Oh no!
09:20Oh!
09:21It's the RK Pro in the Street Profits!
09:22It's broken now!
09:24Oh!
09:25Oh!
09:26Riddleson all the way to the outside!
09:27Montez Ford stumbling over to his corner!
09:30It's a sudden death situation!
09:32The first team to achieve a pinfall or submission become Raw Tag Team Champions!
09:37The tag was made to Dawkins!
09:38Chad Gable can't believe that Montez Ford landed on his team now!
09:42Oh!
09:43Oh!
09:44My!
09:45That's gotta be it!
09:46One!
09:47Two!
09:48Oh!
09:49How on earth!
09:51Oh man!
09:52So close!
09:53From the absolute heavens!
09:56Montez Ford with a blockbuster off the top of Dawkins' shoulders!
10:02And somehow, some way, Chad Gable survives!
10:06Outstanding teamwork from all three of these teams!
10:10It is awesome!
10:11It is awesome!
10:12It is awesome!
10:13It is awesome!
10:14It is awesome!
10:15It is awesome!
10:16It is awesome!
10:17You can't help but agree with the WWE Universe here in AT&T Stadium!
10:22This is awesome!
10:23Oh!
10:24It'll get a little too reckless with the attack!
10:26And now it's in with Otis!
10:27Kick to the chest!
10:29Oh!
10:30Nasty right by Dawkins!
10:32Watch out for Orton!
10:34Over to the RKO!
10:38Sky high to the spinebuster!
10:41Tag made!
10:43Montez Ford!
10:44As dark as kickstrike!
10:46Montez Ford though!
10:48Climbing high!
10:49Someone call!
10:50Air traffic control at DFW!
10:53Randy Orton all over from the outside!
10:55Justin Thomas with a RKO!
10:58From the top rope!
11:00Whoa!
11:01You have got to be kidding me!
11:04But Montez Ford rolled out!
11:06No count outs here!
11:08It was a smart move by Montez Ford!
11:11I don't even know if it was intentional!
11:12We gotta see this again!
11:13Riddle leaping to the top rope!
11:15Delivering an RKO!
11:17Unreal!
11:18So unreal!
11:19Just enough left to get out of the ring to...
11:22Able!
11:23Another one!
11:25Right on target!
11:27And he put it away to retain one!
11:29Two!
11:30Brittany does!
11:36Here are your winners!
11:37And still the Raw Tag Team Champions!
11:42R.K. Brown!
11:48What a battle!
11:50What a way to kick off WrestleMania Sunday!
11:53And what a win!
11:54For the champions!
11:56And it all came via the most stupendous two RKO's
12:02I think I have ever seen!
12:04Won by Riddle!
12:06And then Orton catching Chad Gable!
12:08In the air!
12:10To secure the retention of the Raw Tag Team titles!
12:16For RKO!
12:18This one could have gone any team's way!
12:21But in the end...
12:23RKO gonna leave WrestleMania the same way they walked or scooted in!
12:30We are your Raw Tag Team Champions!
12:34And dare we say...
12:35Say the F word Corey!
12:36They're also what?
12:37Say it!
12:38Friends!
12:39Yes!
