00:00:00it has been an ultra physical match between rusev and jd mcdonough's dirty dom looks on remember
00:00:28rusev the number one contender for that intercontinental title we want to remind you
00:00:32what took place within the last half an hour here as ria ripley and oscar exchange words back exchange
00:00:39ria says back off oscar oscar says you're not ready for me well guess what they're ready for
00:00:46each other it is official they will be going at it tonight ria ripley and oscar's coming up in our
00:00:52main event wade what a dream matchup main event we're getting there no one expected that tonight
00:00:57but what we did expect was this to be an absolute nightmare for jd mcdonough but somehow despite the
00:01:04beating rusev has given him mcdonough's back up top wow and mainly because he was chopping at the left
00:01:11leg of rusev and with that he's been able to mount a comeback can mcdonough see it through against
00:01:20rusev that big running knee mcdonough's so durable i don't know how he's managed this
00:01:26rusev just rips him after just a count of one throwing him off tell you this right now jd mcdonough
00:01:35can absorb punishment like no other and when he gets the upper hand he is like a tiger he's been
00:01:40brilliant so far but brilliant might not get it done against this big bulgarian you see him
00:01:45standing up to the striking attack is rusev before powering oh jd able to counter the attack mcdonough so
00:01:54cunning so wily knows exactly how to use his opponent's strength against him and then his big weapon that
00:02:02head as jd mcdonough goes up top welts all over the body but still an aerial master is he ever hooking
00:02:14the leg for the win and rusev with a kick out jd mcdonough absolutely mcdonough absolutely rolling
00:02:21in this one look at this corkscrew plancher to the inside and he flushed on the sternum of rusev and that
00:02:28damage exacerbated by this picture-perfect moonsault and to the fact we are deep into this match
00:02:35and jd mcdonough's body has been put through the ringer yet he can still operate at such a high level
00:02:42that is stunning there are few who go higher or arch better on that moonsault than jd mcdonough but now
00:02:49he needs to keep the momentum against the big man
00:02:52he's a continental champ dirty dom getting a worm's eye view of what surely awaits him from
00:03:00rusev when they eventually collide and tom has been very very cautious around rusev
00:03:05rusev is right in his face as the night star that we got on the air letting him know what he's in store
00:03:10for this kind of power just rag-dolling mcdonough and slamming him down and glaring now is rusev
00:03:20getting that second win which may be more terrifying than the first because we're lining up for something
00:03:27deadly here don't turn around jd it will not be good nope you know it match kick connects and that
00:03:35match kick now puts it in position
00:03:38for the accolade

00:05:22oh well
00:05:25kairi
00:05:27please talk to asuka
00:05:29Asuka is why we are here.
00:05:34We must listen to.
00:05:42I'm here.
00:05:52I'm backstage with L.A. Nights.
00:05:55L.A., this past weekend at Wrestle Palooza,
00:05:57you were the special guest referee between the Usos
00:06:00and the Visions, Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed.
00:06:03I was curious if you think that your unique referee style
00:06:09maybe played a role in the seemingly lingering tension
00:06:13between you and Jey Uso.
00:06:16My God, are you wordy?
00:06:17Will you let me talk to you?
00:06:18Yeah.
00:06:19Here's the thing.
00:06:21Whatever happened on Saturday, Jey comes in here all hot.
00:06:24And I just got to think to myself,
00:06:25should this guy be worrying about being so hot at me
00:06:29or should he maybe worry about his health a little bit?
00:06:31I got to be honest.
00:06:32The only reason things went down the way they did on Saturday,
00:06:35I was trying to make sure Jey was okay.
00:06:37You saw what happened to him.
00:06:38I'm over here making sure, are you good?
00:06:40Are you good to go?
00:06:41He shoves me out of the way,
00:06:42eats a spear through the table,
00:06:44and the rest is history.
00:06:45So I tell you what,
00:06:46now he comes in here all hot at me
00:06:48and my man, I do not want to hurt you.
00:06:51I'm not trying to hurt you,
00:06:52but if you make me,
00:06:53I damn sure will
00:06:54because you talk about body and me,
00:06:57but you've got to make sure you don't brain yourself
00:06:59because that's exactly what you did on the weekend.
00:07:00And if you don't do it tonight,
00:07:02that's okay because I'll do it for you.
00:07:03A little BFT for your troubles
00:07:05with everybody saying L-A-9.
00:07:08Yeah.
00:07:09Yeah.
00:07:09Two and a half weeks to Crown Jewel and Post Australia,
00:07:29but what loaded action still to go here
00:07:32at the Ford Center.
00:07:33Music
00:07:41Please
00:07:43Please
00:07:43Hit my music
00:07:44Please
00:07:45Oh yeah
00:07:45Uh
00:07:47Matches
00:07:48Next
00:08:02Next
00:08:03Next
00:08:03Next
00:08:03This next match is scheduled for one song.
00:08:29Introducing first, from San Francisco, California.
00:08:32Weighing in at 242 pounds, main event, Jey Uso.
00:08:46They are Yeet in Evansville.
00:08:50You've got two options in live jokes, as you whether Yeet or Retreat.
00:08:54And I think we know exactly which one Jey Uso is going to choose every single week.
00:09:00It's been an interesting night for Jey.
00:09:02A night that has his own full brother, questioning where Jey's head is at.
00:09:06Had Cody Rhodes talk to him about it all.
00:09:08But in the end, he will have this in front of him.
00:09:12Dealing with a very angry L.A. night.
00:09:16On a night where it is Yeet versus Yeah.
00:09:20And that is caught in your way next.
00:09:24How about the rhythm now, Joe?
00:09:26Turn the bell.
00:09:28We've got to go.
00:09:30In front of him, he will have a very bigumen man.
00:09:34The rhythm is down, Joe!
00:09:36We were up on the back of his place.
00:09:38And we're behind him.
00:09:40We're behind him.
00:09:42He is behind him.
00:09:44We're behind him.
00:12:46A whole bunch of stitches in the head of Jey Uso over the fact that he does not want a day off.
00:12:51Straight back to the fight is part of why audiences like this one and Evansville go bananas for him.
00:12:58And they all say go bananas for his opponent.
00:13:01And here's the opponent from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 240 pounds, L.A. Knight!
00:13:15Weigh the megastar is back to doing what he does best.
00:13:21His usefulness as a referee was, let's just say, questionable at best.
00:13:28I think I'd be generous if I described it as applying weak enforcements of the rules the other night in Indy.
00:13:36Well, he was self-advented.
00:13:38He was going to be flimsy with the rule book, and I don't think the rule book existed.
00:13:42I don't think there was one.
00:13:45Aside from the pin right at the end, I mean, it wasn't supposed to be a no disqualification, right?
00:13:51But L.A. Knight felt it.
00:13:52Oh, ho, ho, ho.
00:13:53Go on and, hey, well, Ralph.
00:13:54I mean, this is exactly what you would expect based on everything we have seen.
00:14:01Of course, Jay describing the fact that he had issues with L.A. Knight on Saturday night.
00:14:06I mean, he used to have had issues for a bit.
00:14:08Remember September 8th, when he so speared L.A. Knight and then September 15th, a BFT receipt retaliation from L.A.
00:14:16Well, ultimately, they were tagging just a few weeks ago.
00:14:19Go!
00:14:20It's not like they're going to be tagging again any time soon.
00:14:24There's some real bad blood between these two that was up to toxic at Russell Palooza.
00:14:30Listen, we have broadcast a lot of Jay Uso matches.
00:14:34Is it me, or is there a different edge to him early on?
00:14:38Yeah, there's definitely a different side now.
00:14:40I think it's been coming out over the past few weeks for Jay Uso.
00:14:44And you've got to remember...
00:14:45Go!
00:14:46Go!
00:14:46Earlier this year, Jay Uso was a guy chasing and trying to get to the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:14:54He got there.
00:14:55Oh, man, oh, man, that didn't take long.
00:14:59And once you get to the top of the mountain, and you like it up there, you're really irritated when you're no longer there.
00:15:05I think that's a part of trying to BFT right on the back there.
00:15:08Yeah, that jumping neckbreaker really changed things.
00:15:10Part of this attitude change for Jay Uso is exactly that.
00:15:14This is going to watch out here.
00:15:18He just got out of the way.
00:15:20Oh, the clothesline right on the floor.
00:15:28Both men down.
00:15:29Jumping neckbreaker turned things around from L.A. Knight.
00:15:43And then Jay Uso moments ago with a big clothesline that roared the megastar.
00:15:49And you see L.A. Knight trying to gather himself along the reinforced announce table.
00:16:03That's the volumes for the popularity of these two.
00:16:06We've got Julie Chats right now.
00:16:08Both 50-50 split in this audience.
00:16:11Just draping him across our announce desk.
00:16:20That's the great things about Jay Uso.
00:16:22He's simply not going to win a power game against a superstar belt like L.A. Knight.
00:16:27You've got to rely on your other assets.
00:16:31Oh, how hard did he just go into that barrier, Wade?
00:16:34He's completely pole-laxed him.
00:16:38Both men now down.
00:16:39They came out of the block's heart.
00:16:42Two balls attacking one another.
00:16:46But now at least, Jay Uso getting the better of it.
00:16:49And L.A. Knight receiving the referee's count on the outside.
00:16:52What a treat for these fans here in Evansville.
00:17:00Two days removed from that epic tag team match in Indy.
00:17:06Where L.A. Knight was, as we described, the Lindsay guest referee.
00:17:12Of the role.
00:17:13The desk is in such a mess right here.
00:17:15We're trying to get fixed up as we speak.
00:17:17Look at that mess was caused by the skull of Jay Uso, who somehow has bounced back and taken control of the match.
00:17:28Knight able to counter it, get out the back door, and again!
00:17:36Success he's had with the neckbreaker early on here.
00:17:39One, two, three, four, nine, two!
00:17:47Oh, he went to go crashing with that knee in the corner, and just at the last second, Uso able to get out of the way.
00:17:53Both superstars are here in a banger.
00:17:57This crowd is loving it!
00:18:05Here we are, Jay Uso in L.A. Knight as Jay goes into the cover.
00:18:09Jay's brother Jimmy has had such concern with Jay lately, he thought perhaps they were on their way to prioritizing a rematch with the Vision with the Bronze, but it was Jay who said no.
00:18:22L.A. Knight is what I'm asking for, is what I want tonight, and that's what he gets, and L.A. Knight has been fired up for this one as he delivers a right hand to Jay.
00:18:33It's so difficult to focus on the Vision when you have the specter of L.A. Knight lurking everywhere you go.
00:18:38You've got to deal with one problem before you face the next one, and tonight is the night that Jay Uso needs to deal with the L.A. Knight problem.
00:18:47And look at Knight.
00:18:50That quickness to get up to the top rope of the Superplex!
00:18:54It's a heavy landing for Jay Uso, but also a heavy one from the top for the guy who executed the move, L.A. Knight, unable to make the cover after sustaining that attack on main event Jay Uso.
00:19:12You see the medical tape on that forehead near the hairline of Jay Uso, the brutality, what he went through on Saturday night, the war scars of this business.
00:19:23Yeah, and Yeet, back and forth, toeing the line, center of the ring.
00:19:37Carries the punch, delivers right hands on his own.
00:19:45Was looking for a little extra something, oh, BFT attempt by the Megastar.
00:19:49Oh, Superstars tapping into the war of this crowd.
00:19:53Look at L.A. Knight, into the cover, to put Jay away.
00:19:58Man, Burning Hammer, connected with Jay Uso, and Jay Uso just about enough to kick out.
00:20:06This is a move rarely seen from L.A. Knight, but executed spot on there.
00:20:12And Jay Uso right on the top of his head.
00:20:15Three times he's attempted the BFT, couldn't connect for that Burning Hammer, has done damage here.
00:20:23He's looking for it again.
00:20:24Oh, there's a roll-up by Uso.
00:20:26Handful of tights, too, trying everything he can to put away the Megastar, but it's not working.
00:20:31Oh, but this time hanging on to the top rope and able to deny the jumping neckbreaker.
00:20:38Great reflexes there from Jay Uso.
00:20:40Had the move well scouted.
00:20:42All out into the floor.
00:20:45Man, these guys have not slowed down since the word go, and these are two big athletes.
00:20:51And it mirrors the intensity, and it mirrors the emotions of everything they have had for each other in recent weeks.
00:20:59Super kick by Uso, straight into the cover-up of that, and it's not going to be enough.
00:21:05Somebody has to run out of gas soon.
00:21:07The way these two have been going, 100 miles an hour from the second the bell rang,
00:21:14both tanks have to be running dry now.
00:21:16Neither man able to even stand at present, completely spent, motivated by hatred for their opponent.
00:21:29You see L.A. Knight trying to get to his feet.
00:21:31Jay came charging in, was denied.
00:21:34And again, L.A. Knight as he delivers that DDT.
00:21:40And he finds the energy off of that offensive weaponry.
00:21:43If you're a betting man, all your money is on.
00:21:47L.A. Knight.
00:21:49His signature, jump up elbow.
00:21:52The leaping elbow from L.A. Knight.
00:21:55He's feeling it, Wade.
00:21:57Shrunk it all off, turn himself back into that perpetual motion machine.
00:22:01Line it up for a bit.
00:22:01Wait, oh, the vision is here.
00:22:04The vision is here to be dealt with.
00:22:06The vision who hate both men in this matchup.
00:22:10They've had numerous issues over the past few weeks, and L.A. Knight just beating the boat to the punch.
00:22:15Keep your eyes open, L.A. Knight's spear!
00:22:18He was fighting off Brawbreaker and Bronson Reed.
00:22:23Turns around, eats the spear, and now, Uso Splash!
00:22:28Shoulders down!
00:22:34Jay capitalizes on it!
00:22:38The winner of this match, J.U.S.O!
00:22:44Well, that was one hell of a battle, Joe Chespa.
00:22:48Inadvertently assisting J.U.S.O. with that victory with a vision who completely distracted L.A. Knight.
00:22:55And L.A. Knight paid the price there.
00:22:57And J.U.S.O., it's nothing to do with L.A. Knight from here on.
00:23:02You're on your own now, pal.
00:23:05Braker and Big Bronson Reed came on the attack.
00:23:10L.A. Knight fought them off.
00:23:14Hey, come help me, Wade.
00:23:16Everybody kill him.
00:23:17Kill him.
00:23:18Kill him.
00:23:19Kill him.
00:23:19Kill him.
00:23:19Kill him.
00:23:21Kill him.
00:23:21Kill him.
00:23:22Kill him.
00:23:23Kill him.
00:23:24Kill him.
00:23:25Jimmy's saying, we've got to do something about this, and J.U.S.O. walks off with him.
00:23:28Yeah, he's made it quite clear he wants nothing to do with L.A. Knight or anyone who's not proud.
00:23:33But Jimmy Uso clearly still has a heart and is out here to try and protect his fallen friend, L.A. Knight.
00:23:42Jimmy comes in with the chair to fend off.
00:23:45Go!
00:23:46Go!
00:23:46Go!
00:23:47Go!
00:23:48Go!

00:24:20Go!
00:24:21Go!
00:24:22as the oracle pulls him down.
00:24:24It took a while to tame
00:24:26Ron Breaker.
00:24:28The vision, of course, in a rematch
00:24:31with the Usos.
00:24:32Next week, a rematch from their match
00:24:34at Wrestlepalooza.
00:24:36This is just a disarray by
00:24:38special guest in LA Nights.
00:24:41OTC! OTC!
00:24:43You know what?
00:24:44I think it's fake. I don't think he even got you a real one
00:24:47because that's what Cody Rhodes is like.
00:24:49Fake. He's fake. He's foamy.
00:24:50He's trying to curry favor with everybody
00:24:53especially you
00:24:54because he knows that dangerous you.
00:24:56Just like them Usos out there
00:24:58with their stupid little
00:25:00four letters, one word,
00:25:02one syllable, one brain cell
00:25:04and their disrespect in our voice.
00:25:07We got Cody Rhodes out there
00:25:08talking about me saying you're a lovely
00:25:10wife. There's lots of things
00:25:12you can say about me, okay? You can say that I'm
00:25:14dangerous. You can say that I am intelligent.
00:25:16You can say that I am the greatest female wrestler
00:25:18of all time because I am
00:25:20and it's not just me saying it, okay?
00:25:22Yeah? Other people say it. Sports Illustrated says it.
00:25:24The Bleacher Report says it. ESPN
00:25:26says it. And this
00:25:28crowd, this crowd are just there
00:25:30along with every word.
00:25:32They're not fans. They are
00:25:34thieves. They are thieves and they
00:25:36are trying to steal everything
00:25:38that we have done. Everything that we have
00:25:40built and if we allow them they will do
00:25:42that. We've been too lean
00:25:44on it, okay? Because there's important
00:25:46people that haven't been here, that haven't done
00:25:48what we have done. Like CM Punk, like
00:25:50AJ Lee, like Cody frickin' Rhodes.
00:25:53So you know what I'm gonna do?
00:25:56I'm gonna make an example.
00:25:59Yep.
00:26:00That's what I'm gonna do.
00:26:01I'm gonna do.
00:26:15Are we even allowed to be around each other?
00:26:19Yeah.
00:26:20This is important.
00:26:22Look, okay. I'm really
00:26:23sorry about Wrestle Palooza.
00:26:27Ria, I need you to
00:26:29call for the match.
00:26:32EO, I'm
00:26:33sick of Oscar being disrespectful.
00:26:36Look, I'm really sorry about the match.
00:26:38It has to happen.
00:26:40Look, think of it this way.
00:26:41Maybe Oscar and I, we can beat the
00:26:43respect into each other. Kind of like what we did.
00:26:47Fine.
00:26:51EO,
00:26:51just
00:26:53please be careful around Oscar.
00:26:58Wait.
00:26:59What do you mean?
00:27:01Oscar is family.
00:27:03I, I get it.
00:27:04Oscar is family.
00:27:06And that's why it hurts even more
00:27:07when you can't trust your own family.
00:27:09EO, please,
00:27:10believe me.
00:27:11I know all about it.
00:27:13Then,
00:27:13you know,
00:27:14I wouldn't be here
00:27:15without Oscar.
00:27:17I can trust her.
00:27:18Can I trust you?
00:27:22EO,
00:27:23that's,
00:27:24that's not what I meant.
00:27:26Right now,
00:27:41I want to welcome three men
00:27:42who enjoyed some time
00:27:43in the winner's circle
00:27:44tonight here on Raw.
00:27:46The team of
00:27:47the War Raiders
00:27:49and their partner,
00:27:51Penta.
00:27:56Eric,
00:27:57I want to start with you guys.
00:28:02You were in an
00:28:03anything goes match
00:28:04earlier on tonight
00:28:05and everything went.
00:28:06I see some bruises
00:28:07on the arms.
00:28:07I know probably physically
00:28:09you're not feeling too great,
00:28:10but how good does it feel
00:28:12to put the New Day
00:28:13behind you?
00:28:15New Day
00:28:15could have chose
00:28:16to move on.
00:28:18They could have chose
00:28:19peace.
00:28:19But they chose
00:28:21to complain.
00:28:23They chose
00:28:24to cry.
00:28:26They chose
00:28:27war.
00:28:28And when it comes to war,
00:28:30the War Raiders
00:28:30have no mercy.
00:28:32We feel
00:28:33no remorse.
00:28:34And there's just
00:28:35one thing left
00:28:36on our minds.
00:28:39Gold.
00:28:41And there's not
00:28:42a soul
00:28:42on the planet
00:28:43that can keep us
00:28:44from recapturing
00:28:46the World Tag Team
00:28:47Championships.
00:28:49Because
00:28:49Raw
00:28:50is
00:28:51war.

00:41:09Rhea bloody Ripley
00:41:10Asuka
00:41:11right on the attack
00:41:12and striking combination
00:41:17from Asuka
00:41:18she's immediately
00:41:19going to the back
00:41:21of the left leg
00:41:22yes
00:41:22well I have my stats guy
00:41:24pull something up
00:41:25these two have competed
00:41:26several times in the past
00:41:27but to be clear
00:41:28one-on-one
00:41:29oh
00:41:29hitting combination
00:41:30from Asuka
00:41:31Asuka has never
00:41:32defeated Rhea Ripley
00:41:34so he needed a hot start
00:41:36from Asuka
00:41:36but it didn't work
00:41:38and immediately
00:41:40mommy's on top
00:41:41yeah two times
00:41:42they met
00:41:43for the WWE
00:41:44women's
00:41:45excuse me
00:41:46three times
00:41:46they've met
00:41:47oh Ripley
00:41:48two and oh
00:41:48one of those
00:41:49was a no contest
00:41:50but to your point
00:41:51Ripley has gotten
00:41:52the best of her
00:41:53with those title matches
00:41:54with us here
00:42:05big crowd
00:42:06at the Ford Center
00:42:07in Evansville
00:42:08Raw on Netflix
00:42:09Rhea Ripley
00:42:10out on the floor
00:42:11as Asuka
00:42:12got the best of her
00:42:13fully on
00:42:14and far be it from me
00:42:16to criticize Asuka
00:42:17in any way
00:42:18she's clearly
00:42:18a far better competitor
00:42:19than I ever was
00:42:21however
00:42:21if you get
00:42:23Rhea Ripley down
00:42:24and you stand
00:42:25in the ring
00:42:26celebrating
00:42:27not capitalizing
00:42:29then I would argue
00:42:30that is a major error
00:42:31we'll get away
00:42:33from Rhea's
00:42:34effort there
00:42:35come on
00:42:38come on back in
00:42:39she wants her
00:42:39in the center
00:42:40of the ring
00:42:40well the mind games
00:42:42with Asuka
00:42:42you're not quite sure
00:42:43what you're getting
00:42:44with Asuka
00:42:44certainly over the past
00:42:45two or three months
00:42:46there's been a seismic shift
00:42:48in the mindset
00:42:49of Asuka
00:42:50you never really know
00:42:52what you're dealing
00:42:53with
00:42:53and
00:42:53dating in the Australian
00:42:59was Asuka
00:43:01playing to this crowd
00:43:08here
00:43:08feeling very confident
00:43:10with what she's
00:43:11been able to accomplish
00:43:12early on
00:43:13against Rhea Ripley
00:43:14sending her up to the floor
00:43:18near us
00:43:19right in front
00:43:20of our announce desk
00:43:21not feel comfortable
00:43:22in close proximity
00:43:23to Asuka
00:43:25no
00:43:26never know
00:43:27what she's going to do
00:43:28with the varied attack
00:43:29and now she's
00:43:30holding her up
00:43:31Kairi saying
00:43:33I can't
00:43:34I can't
00:43:34well that's smart
00:43:35by Kairi saying
00:43:36because the referee's
00:43:37looking straight at her
00:43:38I don't know
00:43:38if that was
00:43:39Kairi saying
00:43:40not wanting to take
00:43:40a cheap shot
00:43:41or just wanting
00:43:42to protect Asuka
00:43:43and the chances
00:43:44of winning this match
00:43:45because that would
00:43:45have been an instant
00:43:46disqualification
00:43:47Rhea

00:48:50in the midst
00:48:51of this match
00:48:52that has been
00:48:53a concern
00:48:54and this is
00:48:55what Rhea Ripley
00:48:55now has to figure
00:48:56out with that
00:48:57busted leg
00:48:58what parts
00:48:59of your offense
00:49:00should you
00:49:00stay away from
00:49:01and when you
00:49:02get this deep
00:49:02into a matchup
00:49:03the problem
00:49:04is you're not
00:49:04thinking
00:49:05you're working
00:49:06on instincts
00:49:07and that can
00:49:08be a bad thing
00:49:09when you're
00:49:09trying to avoid
00:49:10aggravating
00:49:11a previous injury
00:49:12trying to shake
00:49:17it off
00:49:17and clearly
00:49:18with a bit
00:49:19of a limp
00:49:19is Ripley
00:49:20but Ripley
00:49:21now in command
00:49:22he hangs
00:49:26her up
00:49:26on that
00:49:26second rope
00:49:27and then
00:49:27tosses her
00:49:28to the floor
00:49:29he hangs
00:49:30her up
00:49:31on that second rope
00:49:31and then tosses her
00:49:32to the floor
00:49:33trying to bark
00:49:35instructions
00:49:36they're all
00:49:36in timid fashion
00:49:37but it's not
00:49:38helping
00:49:38I mean just
00:49:39waving her arms
00:49:40hoping for the best
00:49:41good luck
00:49:42with that being
00:49:42a strategy
00:49:43and stopping
00:49:44Rhea Ripley
00:49:44pleading
00:49:46I don't think
00:49:47so
00:49:47pleading
00:49:47to the front
00:49:48rope
00:49:48to do
00:49:49a baby moment
00:49:51hugging the audience
00:49:53what are you doing
00:49:53Kairi
00:49:54I mean
00:49:55when Asuka
00:49:56reflects on this match
00:49:57if she sees that
00:49:57there's going to be
00:49:58something that's said
00:49:59I mean
00:50:01you mentioned it earlier
00:50:02clearly Asuka
00:50:03is the domineering
00:50:04personality
00:50:05of the two
00:50:06Kairi can be
00:50:07something of a
00:50:08wallflower
00:50:09she's Rhea Ripley
00:50:12friendly
00:50:12he's set that
00:50:13left leg
00:50:13Brown wants more of it
00:50:20and they're getting it
00:50:21well Ripley's problem here
00:50:23is
00:50:23she's just not able
00:50:24to pick up the pace
00:50:25she has command here
00:50:26and this is a good move
00:50:28here
00:50:28from Rhea Ripley
00:50:29allow yourself
00:50:30a little recovery time
00:50:32while still turning up
00:50:33the pressure
00:50:34on your opponent
00:50:35and Wade
00:50:37that can take
00:50:38so much
00:50:38out of the rival
00:50:39yeah especially this
00:50:41oh
00:50:41oh those shoulders
00:50:42are down for a moment
00:50:43especially this deep
00:50:44into a matchup
00:50:45you're desperately
00:50:45sucking on oxygen
00:50:47trying to get some
00:50:48oxygen back
00:50:50in your lungs
00:50:50and it's not easy
00:50:51to do that
00:50:52with that vice-like grip
00:50:53of the legs
00:50:54of Rhea Ripley
00:50:55reverse into an ankle
00:50:59lock
00:50:59in the blink of an eye
00:51:00back and forth
00:51:07they go
00:51:08who will get
00:51:08the leverage
00:51:09they need
00:51:09Ripley holds
00:51:11on to that
00:51:12rope
00:51:12and comes in
00:51:13with the big boot
00:51:14just on time
00:51:16is Rhea Ripley
00:51:17when she needed it
00:51:18the limb length
00:51:20short cut to success
00:51:22to the floor
00:51:24she goes
00:51:25and Asuka
00:51:26took all that damage
00:51:29turning point
00:51:30for Rhea Ripley
00:51:32you can see
00:51:43you can see Rhea
00:51:44trying to work out
00:51:45that left leg
00:51:47right leg
00:51:48took damage
00:51:49early
00:51:49and then it's
00:51:50the left leg
00:51:51in the midst
00:51:52of this match
00:51:53that has been
00:51:54a concern
00:51:54yeah and this is
00:51:55what Rhea Ripley
00:51:56now has to figure out
00:51:57with that busted leg
00:51:58what parts of your
00:52:00offense should you
00:52:01stay away from
00:52:02and when you get
00:52:02this deep into a matchup
00:52:04the problem is
00:52:04you're not thinking
00:52:05you're working on
00:52:07instincts
00:52:07and that can be
00:52:09a bad thing
00:52:09when you're trying
00:52:10to avoid aggravating
00:52:11a previous injury
00:52:12trying to shake it off
00:52:18but clearly
00:52:18with a bit of a limp
00:52:20is Ripley
00:52:21but Ripley
00:52:21now in command
00:52:22and hangs her up
00:52:27on that second rope
00:52:27and then tosses her
00:52:28to the floor
00:52:30now he's saying
00:52:31desperately trying to
00:52:33assist Asuka
00:52:34trying to
00:52:34barf instructions
00:52:36and they're all
00:52:37in timid fashion
00:52:38but it's not helping
00:52:39and he's just
00:52:39waving her arms
00:52:40hoping for the best
00:52:41good luck
00:52:42with that being
00:52:43a strategy
00:52:43in stopping
00:52:44Rhea Ripley
00:52:45pleading
00:52:47I don't think so
00:52:48pleading to the front
00:52:49rope
00:52:49to this
00:52:49and now
00:52:50in a daily moment
00:52:52hugging the audience
00:52:53what are you doing
00:52:54Kyrie
00:52:54I mean
00:52:55when Asuka reflects
00:52:57on this match
00:52:57if she sees that
00:52:58there's going to be
00:52:58something that's said
00:52:59I mean
00:53:02you mentioned it earlier
00:53:03clearly Asuka
00:53:04is the domineering
00:53:05personality
00:53:05of the two
00:53:06Kyrie
00:53:07can be something
00:53:08of a wallflower
00:53:09she's Rhea Ripley
00:53:12trying to reset
00:53:13that left leg
00:53:14Brown wants more
00:53:20of it
00:53:20and they're getting it
00:53:22well Ripley's problem
00:53:23here is
00:53:24she's just not able
00:53:25to pick up the pace
00:53:26she has command here
00:53:27and this is a good move
00:53:29here from Rhea Ripley
00:53:30allow yourself
00:53:31a little recovery time
00:53:32while still turning up
00:53:34the pressure
00:53:34on your opponent
00:53:35and Wade that can take
00:53:38so much out of the rival
00:53:40yeah especially this
00:53:41oh
00:53:42oh the shoulders
00:53:43are down for a moment
00:53:43especially this deep
00:53:44into a matchup
00:53:45you're desperately
00:53:46sucking on oxygen
00:53:47trying to get some
00:53:48oxygen back
00:53:50in your lungs
00:53:51and it's not easy
00:53:52to do that
00:53:52with that vice-like grip
00:53:54with the legs
00:53:54of Rhea Ripley
00:53:56reverse into an ankle lock
00:54:00in the blink of an eye
00:54:01Asuka has just
00:54:09countered moments ago
00:54:10against Rhea Ripley
00:54:11with that ankle lock
00:54:12wave
00:54:13well that is how
00:54:13dangerous Asuka
00:54:14really is
00:54:15a technical wizard
00:54:17and when it looked
00:54:18like it was turning
00:54:18into the Rhea Ripley
00:54:19show
00:54:20just like that
00:54:21Asuka
00:54:22grabbed control
00:54:23back and forth
00:54:26they have gone
00:54:27swinging all over
00:54:28the place
00:54:29two women
00:54:29at the very top
00:54:30of this industry
00:54:32two women
00:54:33who knows
00:54:34who know what it's like
00:54:36to hold that gold
00:54:36four times a world champion
00:54:38is Asuka
00:54:38three times
00:54:39Rhea Ripley
00:54:40they have gone
00:54:42back and forth
00:54:43in recent weeks
00:54:45and Rhea's patience
00:54:46was tested
00:54:47with the way Asuka
00:54:49was managing
00:54:50and handling things
00:54:51with EO Sky
00:54:52tonight it went too far
00:54:53Asuka may well
00:54:54have burnt herself out
00:54:55in the early
00:54:56going to this one
00:54:57almost a rope-a-dope
00:54:58strategy
00:54:58from Rhea Ripley
00:55:00Rhea's up top
00:55:01superplex
00:55:02did you hear
00:55:03and see the impact
00:55:04that both took
00:55:05yeah that is not
00:55:06a common move
00:55:07for Rhea Ripley
00:55:08she landed very high
00:55:09on the neck
00:55:09and shoulders
00:55:10she's grabbing the spine
00:55:11up at the moment
00:55:11watch the landing
00:55:12of Ripley
00:55:13you don't want to land
00:55:14quite as high
00:55:15on the back
00:55:16as she did there
00:55:17but of course
00:55:18Asuka
00:55:18taking an even worse
00:55:20landing on that one
00:55:21just the way
00:55:22that rotation was
00:55:24and you saw
00:55:24the upper back
00:55:26of Rhea Ripley
00:55:27crashing down
00:55:28so both of the
00:55:29competitors
00:55:30are looking to rally
00:55:31up here
00:55:32talked about
00:55:33a little earlier
00:55:33that shock
00:55:34to the knee
00:55:35of Ripley
00:55:35earlier
00:55:36has clearly
00:55:36thrown her up
00:55:37again slightly
00:55:38and she's
00:55:39struggling to
00:55:40get back to
00:55:41a regular form
00:55:42ever since
00:55:42it is that
00:55:43left leg
00:55:44that Asuka
00:55:45was targeting
00:55:45throughout the
00:55:46middle of this
00:55:46match
00:55:47as they trade
00:55:48in the center
00:55:49of the ring
00:55:50strike after
00:55:52strike
00:55:52don't want to
00:55:53trade with a
00:55:54bigger
00:55:55stronger
00:55:55superstar
00:55:56like Ripley
00:55:57but you do
00:55:57oh look at this
00:55:58look at this
00:55:59by Asuka
00:55:59look as a flash pin
00:56:00able to miss
00:56:02with the kick
00:56:02just get away
00:56:03from it
00:56:03both of them
00:56:04trying to bring
00:56:05their best
00:56:05in that spinning
00:56:06elbow
00:56:06next to the skull
00:56:08of Asuka
00:56:08but Asuka
00:56:09shaking off
00:56:10maybe a glancing
00:56:10blow
00:56:11more than anything
00:56:11and that one
00:56:12certainly was not
00:56:14this is good
00:56:14stuff here
00:56:16as Rhea Ripley
00:56:18has Asuka
00:56:19in position
00:56:20Razor's Edge
00:56:22every bit of it
00:56:23mommy on the
00:56:25attack Wade
00:56:26shouts out
00:56:26Damien Priest
00:56:27the Territ wins
00:56:28to put him away
00:56:29and Asuka survives
00:56:31and gets that
00:56:31left shoulder up
00:56:32there's a lot
00:56:34of offense
00:56:35now being
00:56:35absorbed by Asuka
00:56:36another look at
00:56:37this Razor's Edge
00:56:38straight from
00:56:39Damien Priest
00:56:39playbook
00:56:40following up
00:56:41with that
00:56:42just a shining
00:56:43wizard right
00:56:43to the jaw
00:56:44but Asuka
00:56:46equal to it
00:56:47but for how
00:56:47much longer
00:56:48look at Rhea
00:56:50just dragging
00:56:51Asuka
00:56:51back up
00:56:52grabbing what
00:56:53she's going for it
00:56:54here we go
00:56:55Joe Tex
00:56:56panic stations
00:56:57for Asuka
00:56:58understandably so
00:56:59she was thinking
00:57:00riptide
00:57:00but instead
00:57:01you gotta be
00:57:01so careful
00:57:02when she locks
00:57:03it in
00:57:03Asuka in
00:57:04position
00:57:04talking that
00:57:06shoulder
00:57:07trying to
00:57:07snap the arm
00:57:08with the arm
00:57:09bar
00:57:09fully extended
00:57:10now the right
00:57:11arm of Rhea
00:57:12Ripley
00:57:13now trying to
00:57:14block just in
00:57:15time
00:57:15how can she
00:57:16power up out of
00:57:17this arm bar
00:57:18and she somehow
00:57:19is able to turn
00:57:20things around
00:57:21and roll through
00:57:21and escape out
00:57:22the side door
00:57:23almost
00:57:24nailed
00:57:25but the shoulder
00:57:26taking all the
00:57:27damage of that
00:57:28post
00:57:28and the KO
00:57:29kick
00:57:30right to the
00:57:31temple
00:57:31lateral press
00:57:32doesn't hook
00:57:33the leg
00:57:33and Rhea
00:57:34survives it
00:57:35these two
00:57:37women are
00:57:38absolutely
00:57:39spent
00:57:39they have
00:57:40thrown
00:57:40everything
00:57:41at each
00:57:41other
00:57:42Asuka
00:57:44draped
00:57:45over Rhea
00:57:46they are
00:57:46exhausted
00:57:47two titans
00:57:49of this
00:57:49women's division
00:57:50giving
00:57:51everything
00:57:52they have
00:57:53here
00:57:53on Raw
00:57:54completely
00:57:54partisan crowd
00:57:56totally in
00:57:57favor
00:57:58of Rhea
00:57:58Ripley
00:57:59but right
00:58:00now
00:58:00that is
00:58:00not
00:58:01helping
00:58:01at all
00:58:02Asuka
00:58:02holds her
00:58:03head
00:58:03in place
00:58:04and delivers
00:58:04right kick
00:58:06after right
00:58:06kick
00:58:07and comes
00:58:08back for
00:58:08more
00:58:08but Rhea
00:58:09catches it
00:58:10and you
00:58:10take six
00:58:11kicks to the
00:58:12jaw
00:58:12and come
00:58:12back
00:58:13with this
00:58:13and that's
00:58:14spinning elbow
00:58:15and again
00:58:15and the
00:58:16spinning kick
00:58:16and now
00:58:17the striking
00:58:17attack
00:58:18of Asuka
00:58:19taking up
00:58:19the pace
00:58:20at the right
00:58:21moment
00:58:21with that
00:58:22oh
00:58:22terrible
00:58:23landing there
00:58:24for Asuka
00:58:25Rhea
00:58:27Ripley
00:58:27is down
00:58:28and out
00:58:29on the floor
00:58:30after absorbing
00:58:31so much
00:58:32punishment
00:58:33Alaska
00:58:34clearly said
00:58:34to Carrie
00:58:35saying
00:58:35take a shot
00:58:35behind the

01:02:36Ah, somebody gave me water!
01:02:38Yeah, hugging it now, hugging it overnight.
01:02:40Right and back, and finally Samuel was able to talk some sense into Asuka,
01:02:45and indeed Kairi Sane, the damage clearly done already to...
01:02:49Oh! A spinning strike as Asuka turns on EO!
01:02:54No. No, she's ordering Kairi as well.
01:03:11And she is!
01:03:13Kairi is attacking EO Sky!
01:03:16Asuka has been at loggerheads with EO Sky for weeks now.
01:03:20Came to a boil after that loss at Russell Palooza.
01:03:23Oh! Oh, this is...
01:03:25This is horrible to see.
01:03:28The respect and the trust is long gone,
01:03:31as Rhea Ripley is blinded from the mist in the eye.
01:03:35Oh!
01:03:36And now Kairi, he's...
01:03:38Another liner up. Rhea's trying to get back to a beach.
01:03:40Rhea can't see a thing!
01:03:42She can't see a thing!
01:03:43Empress Impact, as Rhea can't see,
01:03:46and EO's being beaten down.
01:03:48Oh, as vicious as you like, the Kabuki Warriors
01:03:51taking whatever they want tonight.
01:03:53Oh, and EO is just so compromised being held up here.
01:03:57As Kairi...
01:04:00is just delivering on these brutal orders.
01:04:03An insane elbow right across...
01:04:06the upper body of EO.
01:04:09to rip the band-aid off!
01:04:11Asuka got her wish!
01:04:14Can you believe this?
01:04:17In this scene we're witnessing.
01:04:21No!
01:04:24Noooo!
