00:00:00Then, now, forever, together.
00:00:30Welcome to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and after a weekend of brats and brew, and Packers
00:00:38and Badgers wins, now the locals get a showcase event in the midst of a wild fan favorite
00:00:44return.
00:00:45What just went down on Friday night is carrying right into this Monday Night Raw.
00:00:54He smells blood, he knows it's coming, he knows it's his moment.
00:01:00Oh my goodness, who the...
00:01:04Becky Lynch!
00:01:08Seth Rollins' wife saved the championship for Rollins!
00:01:16Chicago!
00:01:20Welcome to the big time!
00:01:22I give you the man, Becky Lynch!
00:01:29Oh, classic Chicago!
00:01:32Classic Chicago!
00:01:35I wouldn't expect you to know what greatness looks like!
00:01:39All your teams suck, and CM Punk sucks!
00:01:45I'm surprised you came out here and showed your face, aren't you?
00:01:51Are you embarrassed?
00:01:52I don't have anything to be embarrassed for, unlike your coward of a husband, hiding in a
00:02:01skybox, and now hiding behind his wife.
00:02:04I think...
00:02:05What are you gonna do about it, huh?
00:02:07What are you gonna do?
00:02:08What are you gonna do?
00:02:09What are you gonna do?
00:02:10Huh?
00:02:11You gonna do something about it?
00:02:13Becky?
00:02:14Becky, this is exactly the situation I wanted to avoid, because you know I would never put my
00:02:20hands on a lady.
00:02:21Thankfully, I got somebody who will.
00:02:26A.J. Lee!
00:02:31A.J. Lee!
00:02:32CM Punk's wife is here!
00:02:34A.J. Lee!
00:02:35After a decade, is back!
00:02:36A.J. Lee!
00:02:37Take it into Becky Lynch!
00:02:38A trailblazer with a payback to Becky Lynch!
00:02:40A.J. Lee!
00:02:41A.J. Lee!
00:02:42A.J. Lee!
00:02:43A.J. Lee!
00:02:44A.J. Lee!
00:02:45Take it into Becky Lynch!
00:02:46A.J. Lee!
00:02:47A.J. Lee!
00:02:48Take it into Becky Lynch!
00:02:49A trailblazer with a payback to Becky Lynch!
00:02:53Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch don't know what to think!
00:03:02Welcome back, A.J. Lee!
00:03:14And arriving here in Bruce City, the World Heavyweight Champion, Seth Rollins, the man,
00:03:18The man, Becky Lynch.
00:03:19Of course, she's the Intercontinental Champ.
00:03:22But no title in hand.
00:03:24A.J. Lee grabbed it.
00:03:25And for the first time in more than a decade,
00:03:26A.J. Lee returns to Raw tonight
00:03:29as we're at the Loud and Rockin'
00:03:31by-serve arena here in Milwaukee.
00:03:41Twelve days until Wrestle Palooza.
00:03:43So much to be determined.
00:03:44For now, recent brotherly love reunion
00:03:47that will blow the roof off any arena
00:03:49will get us started.
00:03:51O.J. Lee comes in.
00:03:54O.J. Lee!
00:04:33Oh, together again.
00:05:03Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Jimmy and main impact, Jey The Uso.
00:05:14It feels like day one all over again.
00:05:18All is right in the world.
00:05:21Jimmy and Jey Uso reunited, making their way toward the ring to kick off Monday Night Raw.
00:05:29No doubt about it, Corey.
00:05:30The family that's been stretched to the limits, challenged, divided.
00:05:33Roman, of course, recently demolished in Paris.
00:05:35But in the end, the twin brothers, by each other's side, always having each other's back in moments like this.
00:05:43What a great reception here in Milwaukee.
00:05:46One of the most prolific tag teams in WWE history.
00:05:51Man, this feels good, Joe Pes.
00:05:52Great scene here in Milwaukee.
00:05:57The Uso's together again.
00:05:59Man, this is a football crazy state.
00:06:19Football season and time of the year when our broadcast assignments switch up just a little bit.
00:06:24Joe Tessitore with you.
00:06:25Wade Barrett on a well-deserved vacation.
00:06:27But the man who does everything in our company is right here.
00:06:30Corey Graves, my man, it is so great to be with you.
00:06:32It's so weird.
00:06:33The internet told me that Wade has been exiled from faraway island.
00:06:36I'm not really sure what that's about.
00:06:38I'm happy to be here.
00:06:39I'm excited to work alongside you.
00:06:40We get a couple of Raws together.
00:06:42Corey, last week, Jey Uso found himself in a little bit of trouble before Big Jim's arrival.
00:06:46In the wake of an incredible tag team contest with Braun and Braun of the Vision.
00:06:52Picking up the win over L.A. Knight and Jey Uso.
00:06:56But if you thought this would end without extracurricular activities, you were sadly mistaken.
00:07:01L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:04Still looking to bring the fight.
00:07:05Nearly speared in half by Breaker.
00:07:09And then Jey Uso crushed under the weight of a tsunami.
00:07:13But when Jey had no one left to turn to, you can always count on family.
00:07:18L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:23L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:25L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:27L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:29L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:31L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:33L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:35L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:36L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:37L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:38L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:39L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:40L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:41L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:42L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:43L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:44L.A. Knight, always defiant.
00:07:45Right back to it.
00:07:59They wanted it.
00:08:00They're getting it.
00:08:01Cream City has just turned into Yeet City tonight for Munjay Night Raw.
00:08:22Oh, there's a handoff.
00:08:25That's more your territory.
00:08:27You call it that.
00:08:31I said the Usos are now in your division.
00:08:54You call it that.
00:08:59Seth Rollins.
00:09:03The Brawnies.
00:09:06The Brawnsons.
00:09:08The Brussos.
00:09:09Brawnbreaker.
00:09:10Brawnson Reed.
00:09:12Y'all messed up.
00:09:14You screwed up, Boose.
00:09:16No, the dangerous duo of destruction for the vision.
00:09:32The tribal thief, Bronson Reed.
00:09:35The badass Brawnbreaker.
00:09:37Out here looking for trouble already.
00:09:44They find it so easily week after week.
00:09:47Hey, Reed, look.
00:09:57It's the twins.
00:09:58Hey, Big Jim, you lost, man?
00:10:00This ain't SmackDown.
00:10:03This is Monday Night Raw.
00:10:06The vision runs Monday Night Raw.
00:10:16The dogs run Monday Night Raw.
00:10:19Man, y'all got some nerve coming out here standing in our ring after what y'all's family did to Paul Heyman.
00:10:31I'm...
00:10:32I'm...
00:10:32I'm...
00:10:32I'm...
00:10:32I'm...
00:10:33I'm...
00:10:34I'm...
00:10:35I'm...
00:10:36I'm...
00:10:37I'm...
00:10:38I'm...
00:10:39I'm...
00:10:40I'm...
00:10:41I'm...
00:10:42I'm...
00:10:43I'm...
00:10:44I'm...
00:10:45I'm...
00:10:46I'm...
00:10:47I'm...
00:10:48I'm...
00:10:49I'm...
00:10:51I'm...
00:10:52I'm...
00:10:53I...
00:10:54I'm...
00:10:55I'm...
00:10:56Tonight...
00:10:57Tonight,
00:11:11all I want from Roman's family is to acknowledge their tribal thief.
00:11:13But owe me truth.
00:11:16Big Jim, listen to Big Bronson.
00:11:28You were not a factor in Seth Rollins' vision when you were on SmackDown.
00:11:34But now, you're here on Monday.
00:11:37Shut up!
00:11:50We don't need to listen to these people.
00:11:59And we're coming back.
00:12:01We already dealt with him.
00:12:03And we're going to deal with you too now, Jimmy.
00:12:06And if you want to know how that goes down, just look at your cousin sitting in the hospital.
00:12:13Hey, how about you shut your mouth when you talk about the OTC?
00:12:21Hey, Braun Breaker, to answer your question, yeah, Big Jim, know where I'm at.
00:12:26I'm right here on Monday Night Raw.
00:12:32Hey, you know what?
00:12:33There it is.
00:12:34I'm very happy to be standing in front of the division.
00:12:37Because I do remember Seth J&J Security, but who the hell we got here?
00:12:41More like PBJ and J Security.
00:12:45Hey, we know who you two punks are.
00:12:48Let me remind you who's standing in the ring.
00:12:50You the Twos.
00:12:51And we the Twos.
00:12:54I don't know where it irks me more.
00:12:56I don't know where it irks me more.
00:12:58Either because you two got the same damn name, or you're over here taking orders from a...
00:13:01Man, what's his name?
00:13:03Paul Heyman?
00:13:07Yo, yo, I got you.
00:13:08You're taking orders from Paul Heyman.
00:13:10A.K.A.
00:13:11The Advocate.
00:13:12A.K.A.
00:13:13The Wise Man.
00:13:14A.K.A.
00:13:15The Orca.
00:13:16He built like one.
00:13:17A.K.A.
00:13:18In the world.
00:13:19He is, he is.
00:13:22A.K.A.
00:13:23The words of the Tribal Chief.
00:13:25Dumbass.
00:13:31I'm telling you, I'm going to run.
00:13:33So check this out.
00:13:35Check this out, Milwaukee.
00:13:36They want to come out here and make a name for themselves.
00:13:39Cool.
00:13:40Guess what we did?
00:13:41We went to Adam Pearce.
00:13:42We rapped with him.
00:13:44And guess it?
00:13:44It's Breaker and Big Cam Bronson Reed.
00:13:48At Wrestle Palooza, you're going against the best damn tag team in the game.
00:13:52Jimmy and Jack Da-O-S-O.
00:13:58Hey, but check it out, Milwaukee.
00:14:01We ain't even got to wait.
00:14:02We getting jiggy right now.
00:14:05Hey, talk to him.
00:14:07Roll letters.
00:14:08Roll line.
00:14:10I want D.
00:14:12No, no, no, no.
00:14:13We can wait.
00:14:15Because we can wait to wrestle Palooza.
00:14:17Not tonight.
00:14:19Milwaukee doesn't get to see this match.
00:14:21Wait a minute.
00:14:21That's L.A. Knight.
00:14:22Of course, L.A. Knight has something to say about it.
00:14:26He's got a major issue with Braun and Bronson Corey.
00:14:29So much unfinished business for the megastar.
00:14:32The defiant L.A. Knight out here all on his own.
00:14:35Trying to bring the fight to the vision.
00:14:37But L.A. being overwhelmed by these two powerhouses.
00:14:40Yeah, two on one right now.
00:14:43Big Bronson Reed and the badass Braun Breaker after last week's brutal attack.
00:14:48Wait a minute.
00:14:49Whoa, Uso.
00:14:51There they go.
00:14:52Flying.
00:14:54Big Jim and Main Event Jay bringing the fight to Bronson Reed and Braun Breaker.
00:14:59What an announcement.
00:15:02Wrestle Palooza.
00:15:03Get ready.
00:15:06Each delivering blow after blow to Big Bronson Reed.
00:15:11Reed and Breaker in the unfamiliar position of being outnumbered right now.
00:15:19And here's Breaker back in the midst.
00:15:22Super kick Lance Blush.
00:15:24Big Bronson trying to gather himself.
00:15:29I want to put the B of T.
00:15:33Oh, and a moment of hesitation.
00:15:37Causley.
00:15:40Reed goes flying out of the ring after the super kick from Jimmy.
00:15:43Of course, the recent actions between Braun Breaker, Bronson Reed, the attack a week ago that we showed you.
00:16:03And you can see still a little bit of a communication issue arguing between L.A. Knight and J.Uso.
00:16:11You know what happened in Paris.
00:16:12There's still plenty of tension between J.Uso and L.A. Knight.
00:16:16When the World Heavyweight Championship is involved, tension is absolutely everywhere.
00:16:20But let's not gloss over what we just heard.
00:16:23What an announcement for Wrestle Palooza.
00:16:25Wrestle Palooza.
00:16:25Wrestle Palooza.
00:16:25You heard it.
00:16:26You're going to have the bronze against the Usos.
00:16:29That's coming your way September 20th from Indy.
00:16:31Now, we do have a programming note.
00:16:32Raw Netflix, a special start time next week.
00:16:35It'll be 7 p.m. Eastern.
00:16:37Corey, let's take everyone back to last week when Dom Mysterio got a helping hand at defending his IC title.
00:16:42Just when it seemed as though AJ Styles was going to capture the Intercontinental Championship.
00:16:48An unexpected arrival.
00:16:50An unlikely ally for Dirty Dom.
00:16:53El Grande Americano would hit the scene and deliver a headbutt.
00:16:57Boom!
00:16:58Directly to the heart of the Phenomenal One,
00:17:00which would open the door for the King of the Luchadores.
00:17:04Dirty Dom to deliver a frog splash.
00:17:07And still.
00:17:08annmutter!
00:17:12Demi, yes!
00:17:13simisan.
00:17:15Demi, yes!
00:17:16Demi, yes!
00:17:18Demi, hee!
00:17:28Demi, yes!
00:17:31Demi!
00:17:32Deli, no!
00:17:32KINGLE!
00:17:33Demi, yes!
00:17:33Demi, yes!
00:17:34Demi, yes!
00:17:34Demi!
00:17:35The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:17:39Introducing first from Gainesville, Georgia,
00:17:42weighted for 220 pounds,
00:17:45the phenomenal AJ Styles.
00:17:51You know, just a week ago,
00:17:52it was that ultimate sing-along in Paris at this moment.
00:17:55As they like to say there,
00:17:56he is truly, he is truly.
00:17:58And now AJ Styles can get a little payback.
00:18:01It's the phenomenal one coming up against El Grande.
00:18:05Americano.
00:18:06That's next.
00:18:07Monday Night Raw on Netflix from here live in Hill Rock.
00:18:10Blue collar boys do it with my hands money.
00:18:15They don't want nothing.
00:18:16They don't want nothing.
00:18:19They don't want nothing.
00:18:22They don't want nothing.
00:18:24They don't want nothing.
00:18:57Ain't nobody man enough to feel the pain
00:19:00And you compete next, you better give respect
00:19:03Cause ain't nobody breaking head squared neck
00:19:07No, they don't want none, no, they don't want none
00:19:10Now walk you, I'm ready to take somebody's head off
00:19:27Dominic Mysterio got his little buddy that coffee bean Americano
00:19:34to get involved in my match and cost me the Intercontinental Championship.
00:19:41And
00:19:46to be honest with you, it could have been my fault.
00:19:52You see, for the first time in my career,
00:19:56I've got no one watching my back.
00:20:03Gallows, Anderson, they're not here.
00:20:09Meech and she's on SmackDown.
00:20:11It's like someone orchestrated a way for me not to win anymore,
00:20:18not to have help.
00:20:23I'll let you make your own conclusions.
00:20:25By the way, we are here right now and all over the world.
00:20:30But Arrest everybody isn't a commercial break.
00:20:33I'm telling you something that you're probably not supposed to hear.
00:20:36But somebody doesn't want me here.
00:20:40So what we're gonna do is you're gonna beat the piss out of Grande Americano tonight.
00:20:55So that the person that doesn't want me here anymore can feel a little bit of his pain and mine also.
00:21:10Hey, you don't want to miss John Cena's last time in Boston and New York, November 10th, November 17th, and tickets on sale Wednesday, September 10th by way of Ticketmaster.
00:21:25Free sales tomorrow, Tuesday, September 9th, last time John Cena in Boston and in New York.
00:21:32That is a hot ticket.
00:21:34How many times are you gonna say it?
00:21:35Well, I'm gonna say it as many times until you get it done.
00:21:40Well, why don't you let me go work on it?
00:21:41Yeah, why don't you go work on it?
00:21:43L.A., L.A., we obviously saw what happened out there with the Vision and the Usos.
00:21:49Is it safe to assume that's why you were just arguing?
00:22:07What it's safe to assume is that we're over here talking about what I need, what I want right now.
00:22:11And instead, I'm hearing about, well, there's a tag team match at Wrestlepalooza.
00:22:14Jey Uso's, it's the vision, yay.
00:22:17Like, I care about their little family reunion.
00:22:19I don't care about that.
00:22:20What I want is what's mine.
00:22:21But first and foremost, Jey Uso out there thinking, what,
00:22:25I threw Bronson Reed into you on purpose?
00:22:27Huh?
00:22:29Are you serious?
00:22:30Really, if you think that I needed to take you out, if that's what you think I
00:22:33would do, I'd do it right to your damn face, my man.
00:22:35This ain't a problem, but if you want to make it a problem, I had a hard man to
00:22:39find, so come on over and find me.
00:22:40What I need, what I want, I want one of the bronze.
00:22:44Give me any of them, that's what I was telling Adam Pearce right now.
00:22:47I said, give me Bronson Reed, I said, give me Bron Breaker.
00:22:50You can give me LeBron James, you can give me Little Bronny,
00:22:52you can give me Charles Bronson.
00:22:54If his name is Bron, I want him in the ring, and I don't care if I win,
00:22:58I don't care if I lose, I just want to take a piece with me and
00:23:01stomp the piss out of him, yeah.
00:23:03Holiday Knight in a fighting mood here tonight on Raw.
00:23:07We're going to find out if he gets his wish.
00:23:09Joe Corey, back to you guys at ringtone.
00:23:10Thank you, Byron.
00:23:11I don't think anybody had Little Verani and Charles Bronson mentions on their
00:23:14bingo card of Raw tonight.
00:23:16There must be something in the water here in Miliwake tonight,
00:23:19because AJ Styles, just like LA Knight, incredibly fired up.
00:23:22And his opponent, from the Gulf of America, weighed in at 202 pounds, El Grande Americano.
00:23:34El Grande Americano has had a lot of success on Monday Night Raw.
00:23:55Of course, this is his return to Raw since winning the tag team match with Dom Mysterio against Styles and Dragon Lee.
00:24:03That was on August 11th.
00:24:04But of course, what we just showed you earlier is the impact he made when AJ Styles thought he was closing in on taking the Intercontinental Championship.
00:24:12Oh, and you can see how bothered Styles is with that thought.
00:24:16He thought he was closing in on beating Dirty Dom.
00:24:19El Grande Americano head-butted him in the chest, teed things up for Dirty Dom.
00:24:24And now AJ's right on top of him, Corey.
00:24:26Styles eager to take his pound of flesh from El Grande Americano, who has drawn the ire of the phenomenal one.
00:24:33AJ not waiting for the bell to ring, bringing the fight to the legendary Luchador.
00:24:37Big chop, because he had him teed up against that barrier.
00:24:44And a right hand just buckles his knees.
00:24:48Gotta feel a little bad for El Grande Americano, who was competing for Triple-A last night in Mexico.
00:24:53Made the long trip here to Milwaukee, and now he's being outright assaulted by AJ Styles.
00:24:58AJ Styles jumping all over him before this match even gets underway.
00:25:04Joe, I've known AJ for upwards of 20 years.
00:25:06I don't know if I've ever seen this type of fire, this kind of aggression from AJ Styles right now.
00:25:10This is a man on a mission.
00:25:14Gets away from that big right hand.
00:25:17Pele kick.
00:25:18Pele kick lands well.
00:25:20And AJ revs the engine right here and sends him back out and over to the outside.
00:25:25And finally, we've got a bell.
00:25:26After all that, we've got a bell, and the match is underway.
00:25:30Cross body to the floor.
00:25:31Right arm point, as always, the phenomenal AJ Styles in quite the mood tonight, unfortunately, for El Grande Americano.
00:25:43And Corey, I just can't help but think, when you're sitting there, and you're trying to line up the phenomenal form,
00:25:48you think you've got it in the grasp of your hand, and all of a sudden, the match goes south the other way
00:25:53after you were chasing Dirty Dom for all those weeks.
00:25:57AJ Styles certainly understands the emotions that come with success and failure here in WWE and around the wrestling world.
00:26:03And right now, Styles is using that frustration as motivation to lay a beatdown on El Grande Americano.
00:26:11Mentioned the success that Americano has had.
00:26:14Oh!
00:26:15Oh, he may be lining it up right away here, Corey.
00:26:18I'm not sure if there's a problem with Americano's...
00:26:20Wait!
00:26:21What in the world?
00:26:23Another luchador, but...
00:26:26Dos Grande!
00:26:28The other Americano.
00:26:30Well, how's AJ Styles supposed to compete with two?
00:26:33Oh, man, oh, man!
00:26:35Did you see the way he went flying over the steel steps?
00:26:39His entire body just got sent up and over as his knee crashed into the steel steps.
00:26:47With a little help, El Grande Americano and Dos.
00:26:52Dos.
00:26:54Dos.
00:27:00It wasn't long ago that fans were shocked when another luchador came out,
00:27:11and it happened again moments ago, a second Americano.
00:27:17Listen, Joe, you have to understand, when you were as wildly popular on a global scale
00:27:20as El Grande Americano is, you've got followers.
00:27:23You've got people who want to imitate you, who want to follow in your footsteps,
00:27:26who just want to just soak in the aura of your greatness.
00:27:31And now with that, El Grande is taking advantage here in Milwaukee.
00:27:38Nearly ran into the big boot, but instead delivers a right hand.
00:27:44Americano able to weather the early emotional storm from AJ Styles.
00:27:50And the arrival of the second mysterious luchador was the Tide Turner.
00:27:54One, two, three, let him go, let him go.
00:27:58Let him go.
00:27:59Oh!
00:28:01Watch me, girl.
00:28:04Oh!
00:28:08El Grande Americano, no doubt one of the most elegant luchadors in the history of Lucha Libre.
00:28:15A true pleasure to watch.
00:28:17AJ Styles still smarting, still stinging, still angry about what transpired in that Intercontinental Championship match.
00:28:27Styles to the heavens.
00:28:28Did you see the height from which he just dropped on his lower back?
00:28:32Into the cover, hook in the leg is El Grande.
00:28:35As the second Americano lingers out there on the floor, things turned around when that second luchador came in and interfered.
00:28:48As all that emotion, all that rage that had built up over the past week for AJ Styles came out before we even had the bell to start this match.
00:28:57And then all of a sudden, the outside interference turned things around for him.
00:29:02AJ Styles was using his frustration to great effect.
00:29:05The problem is AJ allowed himself to have tunnel vision.
00:29:08Styles was only focused on the task at hand, being Americano.
00:29:12Drop kick by Grande.
00:29:13Looking for a cover.
00:29:15Ryan ended right here, hooking the leg.
00:29:16And again, AJ able to survive it.
00:29:19Now Grande is stomping down on that hand.
00:29:29It's a smart strategy by Americano, realizing if you damage the arm, the hand, the forearm of AJ Styles,
00:29:34it may very well neutralize the threat of a phenomenal form.
00:29:38Trying to take away that cheap weapon.
00:29:44Make no mistake about it, AJ Styles knows many, many ways to hurt an opponent.
00:29:49Monday Night Raw on Netflix.
00:30:02A big crowd here at Five Serve Arena in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
00:30:05Joe Tessitore and Corey Graves with you.
00:30:08AJ Styles came out and raged against El Grande Americano.
00:30:12And then all of a sudden, a second luchador, another Americano, Dos Americano, came in, interfered in, turned things around.
00:30:22There's the cover.
00:30:22And getting that right shoulder up as Americano jumps right back on top of Styles, Corey.
00:30:28While Americano may have gotten control of this matchup by controversial means, Americano has not slowed down.
00:30:35He has proven to be absolutely relentless, understanding you're not going to get a chance to put AJ Styles down once he makes a comeback.
00:30:41Well, Grande is undefeated on Monday Night Raw.
00:30:44Five and oh.
00:30:51I can hear this crowd.
00:30:52Looking to rally support for Styles.
00:30:55AJ able to bulldoze Americano back into the turnbuckle.
00:30:58A few valuable seconds for AJ to recover.
00:31:04Getting his feet underneath him.
00:31:06Oh, but he eats a big boot just when he thought he had a bit of momentum.
00:31:12And El Grande plays to the crowd every which way.
00:31:15Looking for the DDT.
00:31:16Oh, exploder!
00:31:17He reversed it.
00:31:18What a great counter by Styles.
00:31:20Tremendous counter by AJ Styles.
00:31:23Styles buying himself, again, some valuable time to recover after the onslaught of offense from El Grande Americano.
00:31:31You see the second, Grande, off to the side.
00:31:36He's critical in turning this match.
00:31:39But all of a sudden, AJ Styles.
00:31:41The will, the grit, the desire.
00:31:47Styles now with that phenomenal blitz.
00:31:49And that blitz puts down El Grande.
00:31:54The striking combination.
00:31:56And Styles now has gathered momentum.
00:32:01El Grande in all types of trouble.
00:32:04AJ Styles continuing to soldier forward.
00:32:06Muscling up the luchador.
00:32:08A little switch.
00:32:10Eats an elbow.
00:32:11El Grande trying to reposition himself.
00:32:13Oh, look at AJ.
00:32:16Here it comes.
00:32:17Rack bomb.
00:32:19Into the cover.
00:32:21And a kick out by El Grande.
00:32:24That's got to be frustrating for AJ Styles.
00:32:26Reaching deep into his arsenal.
00:32:29Muscling up Americano.
00:32:31The disorienting spin.
00:32:32And most of all, the impact on landing.
00:32:36Stacked up the luchador's shoulders.
00:32:38But El Grande with a little too much left in the tank.
00:32:40Deep into the match.
00:32:44After everything that Styles took and he's looking for right here.
00:32:47But instead, El Grande able to back out.
00:32:51Joe, if you look in the bottom corner of our screen, it has just been made official.
00:32:54L.A. Knight one-on-one with big Bronson Reed of the vision still to come.
00:33:00Knight told General Manager Adam Pearce, just give me a brawn.
00:33:04I don't care who it is.
00:33:05He was listing off every brawn.
00:33:07He's got a big Bronson Reed.
00:33:09L.A. Knight will be our main event here on Raw.
00:33:12Look at that!
00:33:13Oh my!
00:33:14The athleticism!
00:33:16El Grande!
00:33:17Americano!
00:33:18Oh!
00:33:18And AJ survives it!
00:33:21Take another look at this spectacular athleticism.
00:33:25Walking the rope for the greatest of ease into something of a blockbuster.
00:33:29El Grande very nearly tasted victory after that one.
00:33:32He has to go over the top with that balance and turn it into a blockbuster.
00:33:37Nearly two-thirds across the ring.
00:33:39Oh, he's looking for the bomb, but instead...
00:33:42Oh, wait a minute.
00:33:43AJ, great wear with all by Styles.
00:33:46Dislogging the mask of Americano.
00:33:49And with that, an opportunity for Styles.
00:33:53AJ wants a smile.
00:33:54Oh, and up on the apron!
00:33:56Another Americano.
00:33:57What in the world!
00:33:58Dragon Lee!
00:33:59Dragon Lee is here to help out!
00:34:01What perfect timing!
00:34:03Dragon Lee!
00:34:04Oh, and he sends those flying!
00:34:07Watch out, AJ!
00:34:08Oh, need a heads up!
00:34:10The roll-up!
00:34:11But instead, how about this sequence?
00:34:14Look at Styles!
00:34:15The technical skill!
00:34:16Right into the Styles Clash opportunity!
00:34:20Are you kidding me?
00:34:22What skill?
00:34:24What technique?
00:34:28Here is your winner!
00:34:30The phenomenal AJ Styles!
00:34:35How many guys can do that, Corey?
00:34:39One.
00:34:40The phenomenal one.
00:34:43AJ Styles.
00:34:46Able to get past El Grande Americano and company.
00:34:49Thanks to an assist by a man called the future of Lucha Libre by Rey Mysterio himself.
00:34:56The red-hot Dragon Lee.
00:34:59Which after a incredible technical exchange by both Americano and Styles,
00:35:05AJ rolls through, muscles up the luchador.
00:35:08And Old Faithful.
00:35:10The Styles Clash.
00:35:12Thanks for coming, Americano.
00:35:15What a win for a very focused AJ Styles.
00:35:20And great for Dragon Lee to neutralize him there.

00:39:26the challenge she has stepped up to in this calendar year the inaugural women's intercontinental
00:39:32champion held that title for 144 days just goes to show you the level of competition throughout
00:39:39wwe's women's division from raw to smackdown to nxt the best of the best
00:39:44you know it's interesting when you look at the women's division and you take in the perspective
00:39:51when you know we're sitting here with everybody buzzing about the return of aj lee
00:39:54on a night when we just saw nikki bell and you think about how much has evolved through the years
00:40:00and the kind of talent we have and the depth on the roster when you see
00:40:03somebody like lyra you're absolutely right and nikki bella deserves the praise and the accolades she
00:40:09was one of the pioneers that really led us to this point but with that said nikki's found out
00:40:13firsthand the game has changed you leave for 10 years even aj lee is gonna have to deal with the
00:40:20learning curve should she step back in between the ropes again

00:40:46we're talking about the evolution of the women's division let's give a little respect to raquel
00:40:58rodriguez joe who in my opinion might be the most improved female on the roster recently rodriguez has
00:41:05finally grown into her potential and has become a force throughout the women's division and cory to
00:41:11your point i love your opinion on this not just what she is physically not just her skill but the
00:41:15leadership she had a show this summer obviously a five-time women's tag team champion but then
00:41:22having to go about her business without the person she won the tag team championship with
00:41:26and of course essentially acting as the glue that holds the judgment day together rodriguez has grown
00:41:31exponentially in the past year or so she's absolutely ready to be a major roadblock to valkyria's ascent
00:41:38well you know the headlines everybody talking about the return of aj lee 178 million social views
00:42:05of aj lee's return the most new smackdown highlight of the year on x and instagram

00:43:50oh that wave of momentum has come up
00:43:52lake michigan short run
00:43:54give it to me straight into my veins
00:43:56i was ringside at smackdown when aj returned
00:43:59blew the roof off of all-state arena
00:44:01let's run it back tonight
00:44:03aj lee on raw for the first time in over 10 years
00:44:06that is coming up in just moments
00:44:09amazing how quickly things can change when someone opens their mouth
00:44:18judgment day was barking at adam pierce the general manager
00:44:23interrupting an appointment he had with lyra
00:44:25valkyrie a week ago lyra says i want in and now she's got in with the powerful
00:44:30raquel rodriguez opposite her
00:44:33well lyra certainly has an opportunity but with that said
00:44:36raquel believes she deserves more opportunities bigger opportunities higher profile opportunities
00:44:41here in wwe and a win over lyra could go a long way toward that
00:44:45to your point in a division that's ultra deep and everybody has to jockey for position no doubt about it and as we were talking about a few minutes ago
00:44:53we've seen the return recently of nikki bella yes first-hand admitted how different how much better the entire roster is top to bottom the game has truly changed and it continues to change through the hard work of raquel rodriguez and lyra valkyria and speaking of nikki bella joe general manager adam pierce did it again nikki bella will go one-on-one with the empress of tomorrow oscar later tonight so we get nikki bella and oscar and he just announced prior to that we have
00:45:23johnson reid made for our main event interesting strategy and i want to ask you obviously the size differential we saw moments ago
00:45:29why we're trying to chop down raquel a little bit when it comes to technical ability lyra valkyria may have a
00:45:36pretty significant advantage lyra is a technical wizard she knows how to grapple she's very well versed in
00:45:41submissions also lyra's not afraid to fly when necessary raquel nothing fancy pure power and you're seeing an example of that right now
00:45:49now looking for a bit of a guillotine here by valkyria smart strategy when you're dealing with somebody as big as raquel rodriguez as powerful as she is sometimes you got to cut the oxygen off to get the upper hand oh look at how she's able to turn it around into a vertical but lyra
00:46:07out the back side oh and comes trying to test that size and that power and she's finding out as he shoulder tackles coming up short cross body was caught cory
00:46:18at the test lyra is not going to pass tonight not when you're dealing with rodriguez la ruda look at the agility oh good arm track there you go lyra and the kip up
00:46:27right to the enziguri and now rolling out to the outside is raquel
00:46:32and this crowd is gathering support for lyra valkyria
00:46:38oh the drop kick as raquel finds herself out on the floor you see in the background
00:46:50roxanne perez the prodigy of the judgment day lyra would be well advised to keep an eye out for ms perez
00:46:58and that's exactly what you can see her do even as she continues on her offensive assault one eye
00:47:04always looking over at roxanne perez up to the top rope catches the cross body attempt again
00:47:12vicious knees to the kidney again and again driving the knees before the fall away slam
00:47:19rodriguez now with an opportunity to turn the tides even further in her favor in this matchup look at oh
00:47:27would you look at this
00:47:28oh my look at this pulling on the hair and the leg how is the body how the spine shouldn't bend that
00:47:38way cory you're absolutely right it just goes to show you it just goes to illustrate how powerful how
00:47:44dangerous how lethal raquel rodriguez has become and look at this i was looking for the baby oh twisting
00:47:51corkscrewing the splash and then stepping right on her back again
00:47:55oh the damage that the spine is taking here disrespect hooks the far leg
00:48:01able to survive it somehow but you can see lyra reaching for her back
00:48:08cory i think this match now is completely altered with the damage that has been done to the lower
00:48:21back of lyra valkyria i have no choice but to agree with you and raquel now focusing on the
00:48:27lower back continuing to pour on the punishment she's identified a weakness in lyra valkyria and
00:48:33rodriguez continues to exploit it boom oh she's just bullying now she has put a target on the middle of the
00:48:41lower back of lyra valkyria every which way how listen you've been in there how can you possibly
00:48:48describe to a layman the pain of being bent around the post from your head and your foot
00:48:54i don't know that i've ever physically been contorted as badly as lyra valkyria was moments
00:48:58ago but i can tell you this when your lower back is not cooperating if you don't have your back
00:49:02it affects literally every aspect of the match you can't plant your feet and throw hands
00:49:08every time you land on your back you're reminded you feel that electricity through your body and
00:49:13it's absolutely miserable yeah not just the pain that you have to endure but the limitations then
00:49:21for what you would choose to do offensively dropping the elbow is raquel and so many superstars deliver
00:49:28their offense on instant you find yourself in a familiar position you know what move you like to fire
00:49:34off you know what move in your arsenal fits best for the situation sometimes when you're dealing
00:49:38with a back injury or anything dealing with your core even your ribs it really forces you to change
00:49:43your strategy and may take away some of your best offense
00:49:46but again the confidence of raquel rodriguez has grown recently and i think that may be the biggest
00:49:55factor in her career the upward trajectory of her career suplex into the lateral press
00:50:01valkyria stays alive
00:50:04notice how cool calm and collected rodriguez is at this juncture joe this is something that we
00:50:16wouldn't have seen out of raquel six eight twelve months ago she wanted to end things as quickly as
00:50:21possible almost tried to rush through her offense now raquel understands it's okay to savor the suffering
00:50:27of your opponent and she is savoring that suffering for sure
00:50:33and look at that smile on her face as she just gives out more and more pain dishing it out against
00:50:42lyra valkyria
00:50:43listen officials in wwe have believed in raquel rodriguez dating back to her tenure in nxt it seems
00:50:50as though finally raquel believes in raquel now stretching her out that canadian backbreaker continuing to stretch her out
00:50:58agonizing situation for lyra valkyria can she fight back into this
00:51:04lyra valkyria is in a world of hurt against raquel rodriguez as rodriguez has been targeting that
00:51:20back just stretched her out over her shoulder canadian backbreaker oh here's a counter and a roll up
00:51:24by lyra but for many many minutes whoa look at this that's almost like a like a modification on the
00:51:31boston crab it's a crab with a reversed offensive position by the attacker and more and more pain to
00:51:38that lower back remember it was minutes ago as now the front face lock by lyra's minutes ago she was
00:51:43stretched out bent around the post her lower back and this has devolved into a battle of wills at least
00:51:49for that moment that modification on the boston crab by rodriguez great counter by valkyria to force
00:51:56raquel to break the hold but things are starting to look bleak for valkyria it has been a sustained
00:52:04attack with the majority of the work targeting the lower back of lyra valkyria oh and credit to lyra
00:52:12who's still fighting with everything she's got in her being but you can tell the back is a factor
00:52:17lyra unable to adjust midair as she wanted to still got enough of the drop kick to be effective
00:52:22roxanne perez imploring her partner to get back in it as she drives a right forearm in and comes again
00:52:30trying to take advantage and conquer the size advantage spinning kick to the gut striking combination
00:52:36look at her go rallying an attack is lyra valkyria and the spinning kick with momentum behind it
00:52:44rodriguez went down for just a moment but raquel certainly seems discombobulated
00:52:49after this offense from lyra kind of a bit of a modification on the jawbreaker from valkyria
00:52:54like a wheelbarrow there and now she goes up top
00:53:01getting on that second rope
00:53:02lyra looking for any oh the jumping ddt there she's doing right here lateral press able to kick
00:53:12out is raquel and again we continue to go back to the factor that has been lyra valkyria's lower back
00:53:18yes it was targeted it was attacked viciously and it has factored in to basically every maneuver
00:53:26lyra has attempted to execute in the past two or three minutes you see ticks on sale for wrestle
00:53:31palooza we're just 12 days away john cena and brock lesnar to battle how about what we just found out
00:53:39earlier tonight for general manager adam pierce oscar one-on-one with nikki bella la knight one-on-one
00:53:45big bronson reed powerhouse move by raquel oh but the kick out that is coming your way tonight right here
00:53:53on raw take another look at this superhuman power from rodriguez
00:54:01with something of a jackhammer type maneuver whatever you want to name it it was incredibly effective
00:54:07it may have driven the last little bit of will out of lyra valkyria
00:54:13muscled up once again once again in that compromised position with the back arch
00:54:19over the shoulder and runs her right into the corner as if it's not bad enough to have all the
00:54:25lower back damage she drives her front facing into the corner sternum first into the top turnbuckle and
00:54:32now rodriguez with the worst of intentions for her opponent
00:54:38if raquel hits this it's going to be good night lyra oh to put a superplex on the back end of all the
00:54:44damage that raquel's already put forth on lyra i agree lyra oh lyra's climbing oh could we have a
00:54:50sunset could we have a sunset power bomb can she do it here does she have enough in her look at the
00:54:56power of rodriguez just holding herself upright wow repositioning herself how in the world did she do
00:55:03that lyra oh and raquel finds a way to survive it and that is a heartbreaker for valkyria as we take
00:55:11another look at lyra muscling herself back up to use her body as a lever to pull down the much bigger
00:55:20much stronger rodriguez high angle power bomb but this one continues man the inaugural intercontinental
00:55:28champion lyra valperia she is finding a way and now possibly looking for her nightwing but remember
00:55:35the back remember the back cory as roxanne gets up on the apron and the ropes to distract her big
00:55:41mistake lyra big mistake rodriguez wisely goes back to the lower back of lyra oh the drop kick takes
00:55:51care of roxanne meanwhile you better turn around rodriguez wrapping her up
00:55:58lyra fiercely fighting with everything she's got left is it enough looking to kick her way free
00:56:10highly educated feet on lyra valkyria pin in combination look at this pin in combination
00:56:15as she bridged it reverse style and yet raquel rodriguez still got that shoulder up
00:56:21i don't think it can be overstated just how naturally powerful rodriguez is that enziguri
00:56:30rocked the judgment day member
00:56:34and now lyra valperia with rodriguez down and in the target zone is she thinking
00:56:44leg drop here possibility we've seen it before out of her but raquel's back up on her feet
00:56:50lyra was struggling to catch oh no tahana bomb will that do it
00:57:02here is your winner raquel rodriguez credit where it's due lyra valkyria fought valiantly with
00:57:13every fiber of her being including this massive running enziguri
00:57:18that certainly rocked raquel unfortunately lyra's own body betrayed her the back playing a factor
00:57:26yet again unable to get her footing which allowed rodriguez to deliver a thunderous tejana bomb
00:57:33and pick up a big time w much to the delight of the much to the delight of the prodigy roxanne perez
00:57:42what a win for raquel and the entire judgment day and the bad luck continues for valkyria
00:57:52don't mention it you got your back buddy we've been back a long time anytime you need us let us know

01:07:26Without my own
01:07:29I want to wait
01:07:30No
01:07:31I can wait
01:07:32I just want to wait
01:07:33I just want to wait
01:07:34I want to wait
01:07:35I want to wait
01:07:36Guess I've got to wait
01:07:37You're waiting
01:07:38Sorry
01:07:39Let's go back
01:07:40Let's go back
01:07:40Let's go back
01:07:41Welcome back! Welcome back!
01:07:56So for those of you who weren't here ten years ago,
01:08:09and were really confused as to why your millennial parents were very excited on Friday,
01:08:20allow me to introduce myself.
01:08:24My name is AJ Lee.
01:08:35And I am your favorite wrestler's favorite wrestler.
01:08:50And ten years ago, I retired.
01:09:05I said I was sorry, my God.
01:09:13I felt like I had accomplished all of my dreams in wrestling.
01:09:20And I was content, and I hung up my Chuck Taylors.
01:09:25And I thought, that was the end of my story.
01:09:28There was no way I was going to step back in a ring again,
01:09:35wearing jean shorts that are two sizes too small.
01:09:43I was so short.
01:09:46And so I went on a journey to accomplish all these other crazy
01:09:52dreams I had in life, and I did it.
01:09:54But most importantly, I went on a mental health journey.
01:10:05I wasn't healthy.
01:10:13I needed to take care of myself, get right.
01:10:17I went to therapy.
01:10:27I got treatment.
01:10:30Therapy!
01:10:31Yeah!
01:10:32Here for therapy!
01:10:34Therapy!
01:10:39Therapy!
01:10:40Therapy!
01:10:41Therapy!
01:10:42Therapy!
01:10:43Therapy!
01:10:44Therapy!
01:10:45Therapy!
01:10:46Therapy!
01:10:47Therapy!
01:10:48Therapy!
01:10:49Therapy!
01:10:50Fantastic.
01:10:51And I found a way to turn all of this mental chaos
01:10:55into my superpower.
01:11:00And man, the fight is not easy.
01:11:03Every day is a fight, but let me tell you,
01:11:06if you're going through the same thing, that fight is worth it.
01:11:09You are worth it.
01:11:11And I was doing really good for a long time.
01:11:28And then I watched Monday Night Raw.
01:11:34And look, healing isn't linear.
01:11:40Because it's one thing to see your husband fighting Drew McIntyre,
01:11:45or Seth Rollins, or John Cena.
01:11:52But it's another thing entirely to see him in the ring with Becky Lynch.
01:12:04Yeah, I mean, look, I wanted to like Becky.
01:12:09I thought that we had so much in common.
01:12:11I mean, she's a leader.
01:12:13She's a rebel.
01:12:14She's a New York Times bestselling author.
01:12:17I did it first, yes.
01:12:27I am everybody's favorite reference, I know.
01:12:35Back on track, back on track, back on track.
01:12:43There's a world in which me and Becky could have been friends.
01:12:48But then she had to go and motorboat my husband.
01:12:54She put her hands on him.
01:12:56She berated him.
01:12:58She defamed him.
01:12:59She and Becky .
01:13:10Let's go.
01:13:40This has nothing to do with your stank-ass husband.
01:13:55Hello?
01:13:57Is everybody insane?
01:14:03Has nobody noticed?
01:14:06Are you all stupid?
01:14:07Of course you are.
01:14:09You live in Milwaukee.
01:14:10She's wearing my title.
01:14:20That is my title.
01:14:24That is the title that I have made the most important title in the division.
01:14:29And you and me, we're nothing alike, okay?
01:14:31We are nothing alike because I...
01:14:33I...
01:14:34I...
01:14:35Shut up!
01:14:37Shut your face!
01:14:39I am the greatest female wrestler of all time!
01:14:44And it's not...
01:14:45You can do me all your life.
01:14:52It's not just me saying it.
01:14:53Other people say it.
01:14:55Sports Illustrated says it.
01:14:57You suck!
01:14:58You suck!
01:14:59You suck!
01:15:00You suck!
01:15:00Yes!
01:15:00You suck!
01:15:01You suck!
01:15:02You suck!
01:15:05Because the Chicago Tribune says it.
01:15:08The Milwaukee Journal says it.
01:15:10You suck!
01:15:11You suck!
01:15:11You suck!
01:15:12You suck!
01:15:15You suck!
01:15:15You stop, you stop, you stop, you stop, you stop.
01:15:19I'm gonna need to go to therapy after this.
01:15:22And you, you do not deserve to put a finger on my title.
01:15:30Oh my God.
01:15:34It works, I swear.
01:15:42It's wonderful.
01:15:44I have some names I can give you.
01:15:47This is so embarrassing, I completely forgot I was wearing this.
01:15:53My God, for real, I've just been skipping around the house all weekend in it.
01:15:59I slept in it last night, yeah.
01:16:03Things kind of got weird this morning when I was getting dressed.
01:16:06Cut the crap, okay, do not put your grubby hands on my title.
01:16:14Becky, you're sporting quite the shiner there.
01:16:20My God, did I, was that me, was that one of my tiny fists or fury, my God, I'm sorry.
01:16:30Sometimes I go feral and I black out.
01:16:34I'm so sorry, I didn't realize I did that.
01:16:36But, I mean, you're tough since you are the greatest of all time.
01:16:45And then, why don't you come and get it?
01:16:59Chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken.
01:17:19I am not a chicken.
01:17:20I am not a chicken.
01:17:22I am not a chicken.
01:17:23Chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken.
01:17:32Okay, okay, okay.
01:17:34You listen to me, you Jersey trash bag weirdo.
01:17:38Weirdo
01:17:42You keep your hands off my title I already had to bathe in bleach after touching your greasy husband
01:17:51Okay, which
01:17:53By the way, where is he? Huh?
01:18:08Yeah, exactly. Where is he? What kind of man hides behind his wife?
01:18:17Because
01:18:18Because this this had nothing to do with you before he got you involved
01:18:22This had everything to do with me and my husband and our family and our business and our
01:18:30Vision okay, you did not need to stick your neck in where it doesn't belong in fact actually actually
01:18:36Why don't we what do we bring him out here?
