00:00Then, now, forever, together.
00:30Then, now, forever, together.
01:00Tonight, the ultimate showdowns are on the horizon for Crown Jewel Perth.
01:10Welcome to Main Event.
01:11The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
01:31Introducing first, accompanied by Axiom, from the Isle of Jersey and the English Channel, weighing 180 pounds, one half of Traxium, Nathan Frazier!
01:44Getting the action started here as last week, Axiom gave it a go in singles action, but today, one of the fastest superstars in WWE will give it a go once again in Nathan Frazier.
01:55As we welcome in here, Blake Howard, alongside the voice of NXT, Vic Joseph.
01:58Vic, a lot at stake here tonight.
02:00There's so much at stake.
02:02This has been a huge weekend for the WWE as well, with everything going down.
02:07Crown Jewel in Perth.
02:09And his opponent, accompanied by Montez Ford, from Cincinnati, Ohio, weighing in at 260 pounds.
02:35He's won half of the Street Profits, Angelo Dawkins!
02:44A big hometown roar right there for Angelo Dawkins and Vic, a superstar coming off of a massive opportunity last night on Friday Night SmackDown.
02:52This is someone who I've known for a very, very long time, since I arrived in the WWE in 2017.
02:59He and I have had a lot of conversation about the Browns and the Bengals, so I know how excited he is for this moment to be home.
03:08But you're right, huge opportunity.
03:10They need to start making the most of whatever opportunities are given to them.
03:14And you sense, as much as we see smiles, as much as we see dancing and handshakes, there's something inside both these men that just want more.
03:25Certainly would love another opportunity in the Tag Team Championship.
03:28And of course, looking at that deep SmackDown Tag Team division here, Vic.
03:32You talk about any opportunity they can capitalize on, even in singles action, looking to get a leg up.
03:36Look at who's in the Tag Team division.
03:38You have guys like DIY that are former champions, Motor City Machine Guns, former champions, Street Profits in their own right,
03:47have had a great run in many different divisions, on many different brands, as Tag Team Champions.
03:53But, I always say this to you, even if you're in a Tag Team, you still want to taste that single success.
04:01Out of Fraxium and the Street Profits, Fraxium has had their own taste of single success.
04:06As a matter of fact, that's what brought them together to become a Tag Team.
04:10Of course, they had that great series of matches in NXT.
04:12Of Nathan Fraser, of course, in NXT, former NXT Heritage Cup Champion, as he looks to control the pace right now, taking things to the mat.
04:19We always talk about saying, is Fraxium fine?
04:21How about the Street Profits?
04:23There's always been a lot of questions.
04:24Is there a fracture in Fraxium?
04:26Say that ten times.
04:27But for the Street Profits, we can all question.
04:30We can all ask.
04:32They're the only two that really know.
04:33They're the only two that can truly answer that question, because that's a question.
04:38Let's just be frank.
04:40That's a question that has been asked, not just for the last few weeks or few months.
04:44It's been going on now for quite a few years.
04:47Is there tension?
04:48Is there a fraction in the Street Profits as Nathan Fraser picks up the speed?
04:53Looking to rise up indeed as one of the fastest superstars in the WWE.
04:57We say no one's faster than Fraxium.
04:59Did you tell that to Axiom?
05:01Did you tell that to Braun Breaker?
05:03Did you see how fast Braun Breaker runs?
05:04We know 23 miles an hour.
05:05Yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:05So I'm going to make sure he knows that.
05:07Oh!
05:07That you just said that.
05:09Right now.
05:10Right now, as a matter of fact.
05:11Who do they think they're going to dive on Angelo Dawkins?
05:13Certainly not Nathan Fraser.
05:14And bam!
05:15Dawkins connects with a big diving elbow right there.
05:18Dawkins starting to feel it right here, Vic.
05:19He's also telling Frazier to crawl down.
05:21We go into the cover.
05:21Hooks the outside leg.
05:22Only two.
05:23Really stopping that momentum of Nathan Fraser.
05:25But look, for Angelo Dawkins, he can get it done.
05:27He is very athletic.
05:29We have seen a taste of what he can do in singles competition.
05:32And every time he's had a matchup, there's always one word that people say.
05:37Wow.
05:38Oh!
05:39Big pop right there on the jaw.
05:40And, of course, it's been over a year.
05:42Last singles matchup for Dawkins was in July 2024.
05:46Of course, that was under speed rules.
05:47As now he looks to prepare for the deeper waters of this contest.
05:50Women's Speed Championship on NXT currently held by Sol Ruka,
05:54who's a double champion.
05:56But even getting a small taste myself sitting at the desk watching those matches,
06:00it's amazing that a man the size of Angelo Dawkins can move that quick.
06:04Sometimes those matches are just three minutes.
06:06That's a different environment.
06:07That's a different vibe altogether.
06:09That just shows you how well-rounded of an athlete Angelo Dawkins truly is.
06:14And, Vic, coming up next, we're going to feel the vibe of the OTC
06:17as Roman Reigns takes center stage.
06:19And we will certainly acknowledge what he has to say.
06:22What's going to happen tonight?
06:23When we start thinking about Crown Jewel, the Australian-
06:29It's going to be a fight.
06:30With the tribal-
06:32Ooh!
06:32Versus the tribal thief, Bronson Reed.
06:35As Angelo Dawkins starting to cook right now.
06:38Here we go, double underhook, twists him out.
06:40Almost taking a page out of Frazier's playbook.
06:41Nice. Into the cover, hooks the outside leg.
06:43Shoulders are down.
06:44So Axiom on the other side, you can see in his eyes a look of worry on his face.
06:48And, Vic, of course, Axiom can't be too happy after last week, DIY, stealing the mask of Axiom.
06:53Certainly some underhanded tactics that got the job done.
06:56I wonder if the Street Profits saw what happened last week.
07:00And as we get into the deeper waters of this matchup, will they try to, you know, maybe replay that back, so to speak.
07:07He'd be taking a page out of that playbook, but Nathan Frazier, what a counter right there, twisting up.
07:12And connecting right on the side ahead of Angelo Dawkins, both superstars down right now.
07:15And you also see the difference in the two teams.
07:18Montez Ford, very animated, very vocal.
07:20Axiom on the outside, calm, cool, and collected.
07:22We'll see how that translates to the two that are in the ring.
07:25A little bit of a slip, but a nice drop kick connected.
07:27Frazier creates that separation now.
07:29Dawkins goes to the outside.
07:30This is right where Nathan Frazier feels at home.
07:32We talk about that speed that he can accumulate, and Vick, it certainly comes quickly.
07:37To Bacon, Hilo to the outside.
07:40Now quick, Frazier getting Dawkins back into the ring.
07:43Keeping his foot on the gas.
07:44We know he likes to maintain that frenetic pace.
07:46Frazier up top, could be looking for that Phoenix Splash, right into position here.
07:51Frazier rises up.
07:52Hit the Frog Splash.
07:54Connects.
07:55Will that be enough?
07:56And I know we keep talking about singles competition, but also, as you brought up early on,
08:00what will this do to the momentum in the tag team division as well?
08:04So much at stake in this matchup for not just the individuals, but also the teams.
08:09And now he's looking to go high flying again.
08:12Maybe going for that Phoenix Splash this time, but well scouted there by Angelo Dawkins.
08:15Certainly doing his homework right here.
08:17But now we're getting a high-risk territory right here, Vick.
08:21As Frazier looking to fight out here.
08:23Not necessarily what Angelo Dawkins is known for when it comes to the street profits.
08:28It's more of the aerial insanity of Montez Ford.
08:33As Frazier's up.
08:34Oh.
08:35Phoenix Splash doesn't connect.
08:36Dawkins into position.
08:38And takes Frazier sky high.
08:41And Dawkins makes a serious statement.
08:44Here is your winner.
08:47Angelo Dawkins.
08:49I got to agree with what you just said there, Blake.
08:52That is a serious statement victory for Angelo Dawkins.
08:59Vick, earlier on you mentioned about making the most of opportunities, not just in the tag team division, but in singles action right here.
09:05Big-time opportunity for Nathan Frazier as well as Angelo Dawkins right in his backyard here in Cincinnati.
09:11Let's take another look right here at the action.
09:13Nathan Frazier goes for that Frog Splash.
09:15Thought he might have connected.
09:16Was not enough.
09:17As Angelo Dawkins able to press out.
09:19But Frazier goes for it all one more time.
09:21Well scouted by Dawkins.
09:23Up and down.
09:25As he sends Frazier sky high.
09:27And the Street Profits, amidst maybe some turmoil, Vick, finding a way to make a positive.
09:31Oh, an interesting show of respect between these two.
09:39And maybe at the end of the day, it's about the spirit of competition.
09:43Because Angelo Dawkins knows he was just in there for a fight with Nathan Frazier.
09:48Montez Ford and Axiom join in right here.
09:50A lot of mutual respect.
09:51But Angelo Dawkins certainly doesn't miss with his big win here on Main Event.
09:55Coming up, the War Raiders are back in action when Eric and Ivar take on Los Americanos
10:01in a thrilling tag team showdown tonight on Main Event.
10:07Roman Reigns is back.
10:08And the OTC is looking to settle a score with The Vision.
10:11After Bron Breaker and Bronson Reed savagely beat down the Tribal Chief at Clash in Paris.
10:16Find out what Roman has in store for The Vision next.
10:19WrestleMania 41 was the most successful WrestleMania in history.
10:32We shattered every record from attendance to viewership.
10:35So we're running it back to the sports and entertainment capital of the world.
10:41I had a dream.
10:43I had a vision.
10:44I had to work for this and you did it.
10:47It's time to double down, Las Vegas.
10:52WrestleMania returns in 2026.
10:55Are you ready?
10:56Now get me off of this thing.
11:11Welcome back to WWE Main Event.
11:13We are deep in the heart of Texas.
11:15Dallas, Texas.
11:16And you know what they say?
11:17Everything is bigger in Texas.
11:19The energy is bigger.
11:20The lights are brighter.
11:21And the crowd was certainly louder.
11:23As Roman Reigns made his way to the ring.
11:26The packed house inside American Airlines Center showed respect.
11:29Acknowledging their Tribal Chief.
11:31But just as Roman was about to address the WWE Universe.
11:34He was interrupted by his former wise man, Paul Heyman.
11:37And his new associate, Big Bronson Reed.
11:44Dallas, Texas.
11:45And Roman Reigns, acknowledge the one man on the face of this planet that you fear in your heart, Big Bronson Reed.
12:14Oh, come on.
12:22You know you fear him.
12:24And, well, you should.
12:28Not once in your, forget about your career, not once in your entire life have you ever been beaten to such a degree that you needed a stretcher.
12:39That you couldn't leave on your own volition that you couldn't leave on your own volition, not once.
12:42All those football games at Georgia Tech, not once did you leave on a stretcher.
12:48All those Anawaii family barbecues that doubled as drunken Samoans having a battle royal in the backyard.
12:57Not once did you leave on a stretcher, not once in your entire career, let alone even before you were the Tribal Chief with me at the height of your greatness.
13:09Not once in your career did a man lay a beating on you to such a degree that you had to be placed on a stretcher,
13:22carried out of the arena, placed into an ambulance, and taken all the way to the hospital.
13:32Roman Reigns, Roman Reigns, don't worry about them, listen to me, your father seeker, 45 years in this business, never stretch it out.
14:02Your uncle, 45 years in this business, never stretch it out.
14:08How do you think they'll feel looking down on you, watching you get stretched out by my hands?
14:23It's funny you bring up my father and my uncle.
14:37You didn't know them.
14:40The dumbass next to you, he did.
14:46What do you think my dad would say right now, Paul?
14:49My dad would say, fight him now.
15:05So let's do this now.
15:07I've ran this before, I've been over there and I've heard what he has to say.
15:30There's no wise words coming, just words of a coward.
15:36He's telling you don't fight right now.
15:37He's telling you you're on the tribal chief's time right now.
15:41He's telling you you're on the tribal chief's terms right now.
15:47Let's just be honest here.
15:50I'm levels above you.
15:51It's going to be my time, no matter the place, no matter where we go, when you want to do
16:02it, whatever fashion you want to do it in, let me know, because I'm always going to be
16:07your tribal chief.
16:08My compliments, that was almost as brilliant as if it came from a wise man.
16:32You want to know who, what, when, where, why?
16:37Roman Reigns versus Bronson Reed.
16:40This Saturday night, Perth, Australia at Crown Jewel in a match that Bronson Reed made famous.
16:50In a match that Bronson Reed has never been defeated in.
16:54In a match that Bronson Reed was so dominant in, that WWE recruited him from Australia to the main roster.
17:05This Saturday night at Crown Jewel, Roman Reigns, Bronson Reed, in an Australian street fight.
17:15Too easy.
17:24I accept.
17:28Good night, everybody.
17:34Hold on.
17:36Dallas, they walked in like some tough guys, but they seem to be walking out like a couple
17:44of bitches.
17:49Well, that seemingly did it.
17:51Oh, my.
17:53Bite him now was the message that was delivered.
17:56And that looks like it's happening right now, Wade.
17:59Oh, just a few days before the Australian street fight.
18:03Here's a warm-up.
18:05Crown Jewel in Perth.
18:07It's been accepted.
18:09As he sends him outside onto the floor.
18:11Scraping the eyeballs of Roman Reigns there.
18:14Careful what you wish for, Roman.
18:16This is what bad odds are.
18:17Oh, Superman.
18:19It sends him over, Timekeeper.
18:23Oh, and Roman's coming our way.
18:24Oh, Roman is clearing off the reinforced announce desk.
18:27And now here you see security coming down to try to tame the situation between Big Bronson Reed
18:37and Roman Reigns.
18:38Oh, the way this was looking, Bronson Reed was not going to make it to Australia.
18:41Oh, there he goes.
18:44Crawling away.
18:46Over the barrier.
18:53Superman again.
18:56Superman punch.
19:02And Clash and Paris Reigns was stretched it off because of the beatdown put on by Big Bronson Reed.
19:10A week ago, he returned.
19:15And now tonight, the challenge was issued.
19:26It is official.
19:28Roman Reigns heads into enemy territory to face one of WWE's most dangerous superstars at Crown Jewel.
19:34Australia's own Big Bronson Reed.
19:37And if the deck wasn't already stacked in Reed's favor, this won't just be any match.
19:41It's going to be an Australian Street Fight.
19:46Plus, two icons will collide when the 17-time world champion John Cena goes one-on-one with the phenomenal AJ Styles at Crown Jewel.
19:55The rivalry has helped define an era.
19:57Their matches have personified greatness.
19:59And now, the final chapter will be written when these two future Hall of Famers renew their rivalry for one final match at WWE Crown Jewel.
20:11In 2016, John Cena and AJ Styles met face-to-face for the first time.
20:19AJ Styles in the same arena with John Cena.
20:25Talk about a moment.
20:26And for the first time ever, fans all over the world were about to find out the answer to a decades-old question.
20:45What if John Cena faced AJ Styles?
20:52Dream match!
20:54Cena-Styles!
20:55It's electric!
20:57Only ever so often you get to experience something like this.
21:01Soak it in!
21:03The outcome?
21:04Phenomenal.
21:05Styles is beating Cena!
21:08Career defined!
21:09Career defined!
21:11That right there is a man who has just reached the summit!
21:15AJ Styles took the momentum and became the face that runs the place.
21:21But the story between two legends doesn't end there.
21:26Cena came back at AJ with a new fire inside him.
21:30One that propelled Cena to win the WWE Championship for a record-tying 16th time.
21:37And we have witnessed absolute greatness by both performers.
21:47With animosity dissolved and respect earned, John Cena and AJ Styles went their separate ways.
21:55Until now.
21:56With both men approaching the twilight of their careers, a call from the WWE Universe renewed their rivalry.
22:20At Crown Jewel, John Cena and AJ Styles will both try to ink their name in the last chapter of their story.
22:32Two generational talents.
22:42One final showdown.
22:46I'm backstage with AJ Styles.
23:01AJ, your long story rivalry with John Cena in the eyes of many fans is one of the best of all time.
23:08In fact, it was the WWE Universe that demanded this match.
23:12How have you been preparing for it?
23:14Well, the thing you need to know about, Steve-
23:16Oh, there he is!
23:17Hey, who checked you out at your folks home?
23:20AJ Styles, huh?
23:22Uncle AJ?
23:23What makes you think you're gonna beat John Cena when you couldn't even beat me?
23:28Hell, Rusev couldn't even beat me and I'm still your double champ and you have got nothing.
23:34Hey, AJ, a little birdie told me that you and Dragon Lee want to challenge the WWE World Tag Team Champions, Finn Balor and J.D. McDonough.
23:46Well, take this from an old friend, you're making a huge mistake.
23:51Well, old friend, kinda sounds like a threat.
23:55I mean, it's easy to threat someone when it's three against one.
23:59So I'll tell you what, I'll grab Dragon Lee, we'll see if we can find a third.
24:02I'll talk to Adam Pearce and get us a six-man tag match tonight, and we'll see how tough you guys are.
24:11Right, old friend?
24:16I told you we should have dropped him right there.
24:18I just think, huh?
24:20I wonder who's gonna get us as partner.
24:22Doesn't even matter.
24:23Judgment Day is gonna take care of business like we always do.
24:30The Judgment Day didn't have to wait long to get an answer.
24:33The phenomenal AJ Styles is joining forces with Penta, El Cero Miedo, and the electrifying Dragon Lee
24:39to take down the Judgment Day once and for all.
24:42It's a colossal six-man tag team match, and it's next on Main Event.
24:52You walked into my life just like a dream, till you hugged me like a dream.
25:12You walked into my life just like a dream.
25:17The end of an era is almost here.
25:26John Cena's final match will take place at Saturday night's Main Event on Saturday, December 13th,
25:32in the nation's capital, Washington, D.C.
25:34Tickets will go on sale starting on Friday, October 17th at 10 a.m. Eastern,
25:38with presale beginning on Wednesday, October 15th via Ticketmaster.com.
25:43This is one of those events you do not wanna miss, and the same goes for WWE Crown Jewel,
25:49where John Cena will battle his longtime rival, AJ Styles, one last time.
25:54But before AJ takes on the greatest of all time in Perth,
25:57the Phenomenal One has some unfinished business to settle with the Judgment Day last Monday on Raw.
26:05Well, Dirty Dom was getting baited in by this audience, who apparently were supporting him a few moments ago.
26:11They turned on him and started cheering for Penta instead, got in the head of Dirty Dom,
26:16and that has allowed Drago to get out of trouble.
26:20That Dragon Bomb has opened the door for Penta.
26:27And he has been waiting for this moment.
26:29Like a cork out of a bottle, there is simply no stopping the tide against Penta when he's in this kind of form.
26:38And Finn is fighting out too!
26:42He used the roll through momentum against Dom, and lands the DDT on Finn.
26:49So inventive, just incredible reflexes and reactions here.
26:53Now lining up something big apparently.
26:56Oh man, oh man!
27:00And that took even a little something out of Penta.
27:05I think it was JD McDonough in a blink of an eye pulling out that standing reversal.
27:11Spanish Fly, I guess, not what Penta had in mind.
27:15Perhaps going for that Mexican Destroyer blink of an eye, that's the brilliance of JD McDonough.
27:21I don't know where it ends with that gap.
27:24Oh, here comes AJ Styles.
27:27This is exactly what he wanted tonight.
27:30Yeah, this is what this audience has been waiting for.
27:34Now the kid that is AJ Styles at the moment now exploding,
27:38and Dirty Dom is the unfortunate victim.
27:41Back on September 1st, he fought for the IC Championship against Dirty Dom.
27:48Now he's looking to finish him here. Styles, all the save by McDonough.
27:52Once again, he's been the MVP for the Judgment Day team.
27:56JD McDonough saving the day.
27:58Referee now has lost complete control of this.
28:02We got bodies everywhere.
28:04There goes Penta.
28:07Bullseye right on target.
28:09Balor down, Balor out, and then there were two.
28:13Meanwhile, in the ring, you can see Dom holding on for Deer White.
28:18And delivering on that top rope across the neck of Styles.
28:24As a way of creatively escaping to victory.
28:28And now some signature stuff from Dirty Dom.
28:32Oh, he was going for the 619, and all of a sudden he's paralyzed.
28:34No, he did.
28:35Rusev is here.
28:37Rusev is coming down the ringside.
28:39Rusev, who was beaten in questionable fashion last week by Dirty Dom.
28:44Oh, God.
28:45And there is a break.
28:46No, no.
28:47Oh!
28:49But Penta, who apparently was aiming at Dirty Dom Mysterio,
28:54missed eye, connected with Rusev.
28:57And this match continues.
28:59Meanwhile, back in the ring, Styles lines up J.D.
29:04Styles clash.
29:06One, two, three.
29:12Here are your winners, the team of Penta, Dragon Link, and the phenomenal AJ Styles.
29:22Wade, you nailed it.
29:24Henta was going for the super kick.
29:32Now that I've got a second to talk.
29:34This match at Crown Jewel between AJ Styles and John Cena.
29:47We don't need a story.
29:48It writes itself.
29:52You got two men who will dance for the last time.
29:55And I will promise you this, we will leave it all in that ring.
30:00It will kick ass.
30:06It's gonna be awesome.
30:08The WWE Universe wanted it, and they're getting it.
30:15Coming up, the War Raiders return to battle, and make no mistake,
30:18they are on an absolute tear.
30:20Eric and Ivar remain undefeated here on Main Event with nine straight victories.
30:24But tonight, Los Americanos are up for the challenge.
30:27Hungry, fearless, and ready to shock the world.
30:30Can they pull off the upset of the year?
30:32Or will the War Raiders make it 10 in a row?
30:35Find out next on Main Event.
30:41This November, the Padres' home field gets a whole new lineup.
30:46When WWE-
30:47An absolutely incredible scene.
30:52It's Petco Park.
30:53A slugfest full of the ages.
30:57Oh, my goodness.
31:01The epic performance that no one will ever forget.
31:05WWE Survivor Series San Diego.
31:08Tickets on sale now.
31:09I wouldn't cross me if I was you.
31:16Better think twice about what you don't know.
31:19I wouldn't cross me if I was you.
31:23If I was you, I wouldn't cross me.
31:25I was just three months into my WWE homecoming when I found myself forced onto the shelf.
31:42It's not at all how I pictured my road to the WWE championship going.
31:52Recovery was hard and quite honestly, it's lonely.
31:57Because you can get deep inside your own head on that long journey back.
32:02Doubt will try to break you.
32:05So I fought hard.
32:07I put in the work and then I put myself in the Royal Rumble.
32:11I went through 29 other men and earned the right to face Roman Reigns for the undisputed
32:16WWE Championship at WrestleMania.
32:20And then on that fateful night in Los Angeles, I learned another hard lesson.
32:27You can't do it alone.
32:30And the reason you can't do it alone is because Roman Reigns doesn't do it alone.
32:37At one time, he had a shield.
32:43And now he has a bloodline.
32:46I tried to stay clear of Roman, let him run his little empire over on SmackDown,
32:54while I built up the legacy of the World Heavyweight Championship on Raw.
33:02But the fact is, there's no avoiding Roman Reigns.
33:06Eventually, he and his bloodline swallowed up all the air until there's nothing left.
33:14And that type of power needed to be checked.
33:18And so I did something I never thought I'd do.
33:25Cody, I helped you.
33:28Together, at WrestleMania, we vanquished the bloodline.
33:33Together, we liberated the WWE Championship from the hands of Roman Reigns.
33:38I got to live out not just my dream, but my father's as well.
33:42And for that, Seth, I could not be more grateful.
33:48I helped you out.
33:49And it cost me everything.
33:53Cost me the World Heavyweight Championship.
33:57Cost me my health.
33:59And I could have lived with that.
34:01Because stopping Roman Reigns was worth it.
34:05But then...
34:07But then you threw it all away.
34:10Not even six months after finally purging Roman Reigns from WWE,
34:15You let him back in.
34:21You step into a ring with Roman.
34:23Not as an opponent, but...
34:28As his partner.
34:30After everything I sacrificed for you.
34:36Was that all for nothing?
34:39Personal evolution isn't just for architects and messiahs and visionaries and revolutionaries.
34:45The rest of us.
34:47Yes, even Roman Reigns.
34:48We get a chance to evolve as well.
34:51I thought you of all people could see that enemies can become allies.
34:56What I see is that you are not fit to lead this company.
35:03What I see is that you do not have the fortitude to make the difficult decisions.
35:09To ensure this company's future.
35:13You talk of the future, but all I see is you cribbing plays from the past.
35:18Surround yourself with some muscle.
35:19And a wise man.
35:21Excuse me.
35:22Oracle.
35:22And act like you are better than everyone else.
35:26But if you want to live in the past, that's fine by me.
35:29Because the scoreboard back there still reads 3-0.
35:35The thing is WWE doesn't need a self-proclaimed QV1.
35:40What it needs is a vision.
35:43And at Crown Jewel you will find out what happens to those who stand between me and fulfilling that vision.
35:51I have never been one to back down from a fight, and now it's no different.
35:56So at Crown Jewel, you bring everything you have.
35:59Hell, bring everyone you have.
36:02And you'll find out that it's still not enough to beat me, Seth.
36:07After weeks of back and forth on both brands, including an assault on the Viper Randy Orton on SmackDown,
36:18the World Heavyweight Champion Seth Freakin' Rollins has made it clear that he will do whatever it takes
36:24to beat the American Nightmare Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel.
36:27The WWE Universe can expect nothing less than an all-out war when these rival champions collide
36:32for the Men's Crown Jewel Championship in Perth.
36:35The Women's Crown Jewel Championship will also be up for grabs
36:40when the newly crowned Women's World Champion Stephanie Vaquer
36:43battles the WWE Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton,
36:46who is determined to solidify her place at the top of the women's division.
36:50Both superstars come into this match riding a wave of momentum.
36:53The question is, who will seize the gold and prove that they are the best of the best?
36:58We find out at Crown Jewel.
37:01Emotions will be running high when Io Sky teams up with Rhea Ripley
37:05against her former friends Asuka and Kyrie Saint in a highly personal tag team showdown
37:10at WWE Crown Jewel.
37:12But before these four warriors square off in Australia,
37:15we head back inside the American Airlines Center for some tag team action right here on Main Event.
37:20Now, Vic, you ready for war once again?
37:27I'm wondering how many meat analogies you're gonna make during this match-up,
37:30but to answer your question, I'm always ready for war.
37:35The following is a tag team match-up for one call.
37:40Introducing first, at a combined weight of 597 pounds,
37:47Eric in Ivar, the War Raider!
38:05Blake, we're ready for war tonight, but we certainly had a showdown earlier this week
38:10between NXT and TNA. What a week it has been, and it continues today in Perth with Crown Jewel.
38:21And that showdown certainly was heavy in the tag team division this past Tuesday.
38:25As for the second consecutive week here, the War Raiders on Main Event this year,
38:29as they look to keep making their championship case to Raw GM Adam Pearce.
38:33And speaking of jams, gotta give a lot of credit to the NXT general manager,
38:37that being Ava, and those that work for her, such as the Prime Minister of Evolve,
38:41Stevie Turner, and the one and only Mr. Rob Stone,
38:45to work so well with TNA Directive Authority, Santino Morella.
38:49Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, yes!
38:56And our opponents, accompanied by a grande Americano!
39:04At a combined weight of 380 pounds, Los Americanos!
39:12Well, for the first time here on Main Event...
39:14So, what are you gonna say now, Blake? There's three of them.
39:16Ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole, ole.
39:18What crazy conspiracy do you have now? Is that Chad Gable? Are you telling me Chad Gable is one of these three?
39:23He could be.
39:24I don't know for a fact, but earlier every time we saw him before you always all that shit yet. You spoke with so much authority and conviction
39:33Listen, is he out there now? The rumor mill's running wild right there, but listen Vic
39:38I know you're getting your crown jewel party started early here for Los Americanos. Show some respect. These are all three are
39:44legendary
39:46Luchadors the more that I've learned about them by talking to Corey Graves, who of course is the voice of Triple-A
39:51He has talked about how these three men have battled the likes of mil mascaris blue demon
39:56Super porky as a matter of fact all three of these men have statues being built of them just outside of Mexico City
40:03By the way, I don't think you've ever been to those cities
40:05But that is what I have been told from Corey Graves. So how long have they been around? Oh, well over a decade
40:10I mean it made their name throughout Mexico. You see what they're doing right now in this matchup
40:15I mean, this is a huge huge matchup for main event
40:18We are all a part of history in the making so I guess we can call this uno in here right now
40:24See this is what you you think you're funny. They're not the lowest conquistadors. They're that you know what keep it up
40:31I guess I'm already calling braun breaker after and after this
40:33Please don't have a conversation with these three as Ivar shuts down any offense right here from Los Americanos
40:38But Vic talking about the war Raiders how many times do they need to defeat the new day to prove a point?
40:43Look it. That's a that's a great question. That's one that I cannot answer that is for the general manager of Monday Night Raw
40:48But look as much as we want to talk about the opponents in here being renowned in Mexico
40:53The war Raiders are well known in Japan and Booker tells me all the time how helpful going over Japan was early in his career
40:59Look at these double teams right here by Los Americanos
41:03And a big pose
41:05So now you like them don't let that entrance fool you. I mean it was grand it was impressive, but when the bell rings it is all
41:12Business for these two as they look to control the pace right here against Ivar of course
41:16El grande Americano has had his issues with AJ Styles and tonight Vic the phenomenal one and John Cena one final time one final time
41:23It's gonna be absolutely amazing is another quick tag was made. I guess is this dose now?
41:28You called him Uno at the start of the matchup. I'm sorry I got confused
41:34That one's wearing blue one wearing red Blake. Okay. How hard is it to figure out? Uno and blue dosen red
41:40You call whatever you want after this you're gonna have some words with all three of these men as a tag was made some high elevation right there
41:46Here comes Eric and of course Eric my word continue this pace right now war Raiders by the way
41:51So rel well-rounded yeah, I think at times it's forgotten how unique they are the blend of power and athleticism
41:59Not to mention the uncanny ability to know where the other one is at like we're seeing on display with the power right now
42:04And of course these two that tag team cohesion and it looks like Eric gonna pick up Ivar
42:10That's a whole lot of meat right there Vic
42:12There's your first meat reference and also I forgot to mention the combination offense. They are truly the total package
42:17Sending those Americanos to the outside El Grande Americano trying to get him back
42:22But right now the war Raiders in control here on main event
42:29Salt Lake City
42:35Tonight's a back-to-back action Friday night Smackdown brings the hype
42:41Then Saturday night's main event takes it over the top big energy big moments
42:47wwe salt lake city the stage is set friday october 31st and saturday november 1st tickets until now
42:59big tag team match here on main event eric and Ivar controlling things right now against los americanos
43:05and look at eric right now with this high elevation
43:08all the blood rushing to the head here of dose
43:11as much as we talked about in the opening matchup with the tag team division in smackdown and you already brought up
43:16the new day war Raiders don't care who they face they don't care what show it's on what brand what day of the week
43:22they're out here to punish and pick up victories but the referee was distracted and look at what's going on now
43:29combination offense indeed but this time from los americanos
43:32and driving eric face first
43:36here we go los americanos into the cover shoulders are down i gotta give a lot of credit to el grande americano
43:42here on the outside recruiting two of his friends to help guide them build them up and now they are here
43:47in the wwe well vick you certainly can't discount quite the skill set inside the ring here for los americanos
43:52you know and when you talk to you know corey graves who obviously knows these guys so very well with everything
43:57going on in triple a i think something is forgotten is when these three men started their
44:02over a decade ago in mexico they had to fight to survive they had to fight to eat the winner's purse
44:08so to speak that booker always talks about on tuesday go into the pay window so that's why i'm
44:13saying now you're seeing a more aggressive style from these two and what did you call it this is dose
44:18in your words i believe it is your words not mine he's the aggressor of the group he's the one that's
44:23going to ground pound and tear your ligaments apart trying to do that to eric right here eric
44:28trying to get up and make a tag but shuts him right down yet again of course we got a big tag team
44:32clash right here tag made but of course another big one on the horizon la knight now has cm punk by his
44:37side in a battle with the megastar's new rivals the usos huge match still to come monday night raw nice
44:43double suplex listen vick can't take it away from these guys really working well together they've been
44:49working together for well over a decade i've now told you that three times blake what do you not
44:53would you just not accept the fact of the grandeur the lineage the history that we're
44:58witnessing right now on main event the war raiders have been on quite a roll on monday night raw as
45:03well as main event right now but los americanos looking to throw a wrench in the plans of course
45:07everyone looking at the judgment day in those world tag team championships we talked earlier that
45:11smackdown tag team division really getting clouded raw is getting pretty stacked as well it is and you
45:16look at nxt as well how about that showdown this past tuesday showdown was absolutely amazing and
45:21and that's what i'm talking about everybody's so hungry right now in the wwe no matter what the
45:27brand is everyone wants their name in the marquee and for the war raiders they know that every victory
45:32is so important to get their name back into championship contention as eric on the comeback trail right
45:38here and ultimately what is that roadblock been for the war raiders in the tag team division
45:42i don't like to throw the new day under the bus but i think it's because the new day is scared
45:47i mean that's just me
45:50al grande americano now al grande a manager right there on the outside you didn't even know the word
45:55to use but i'll let you slide on that one but whatever he's managing didn't work out because the
45:59advice is not very good whenever someone's running in to someone like ivar over 300 pounds coming crashing
46:08down right there and the war raiders we talk about them looking to move to nine and oh here on main
46:13event be a stick and move strategy but it's not going to work right here flattened that was a rump
46:19roast is dose and now uno in here it's not uno and don't like show some respect as eric and ivar
46:29are starting to cook right now ivar hasn't been positioned double underhook into the power bomb
46:34sits out with it shoulders are down oh and a big save right there this one's starting to break down
46:40a bit all four superstars are in as los americanos looking to pull off a major upset oh and a gut buster
46:48there by eric and a big knee right underneath the jaw oh and the action flying right here vic
46:56he's saying again this that speed this that quickness this is what 10 years of high level
47:04lucha libre action oh i spoke a little bit too soon as ivar showing up this wait a minute
47:11vick what did he just take out of his trucks i think we've seen it in the past and he handed it over and
47:18well the referee loading it up in his mask right now the referee didn't see it referee checking on one
47:23of the americanos ivar trying to take advantage he gets clipped from behind he can say that again
47:27just his knees buckled and now the double team in place right here divide and conquer
47:34destroying that loaded mask indeed the mask connects into the cover do you believe in miracles that is an
47:41upset here are your winners los americanos as much as i want to talk about over a decade of experience
47:52coming here to the wwe taking on a team like the war raiders you gotta consider that an upset it's
47:56a massive upset for the first time in 2025 the war raiders lose here on main event let's take a look
48:02the double team but that loaded mask comes into play and loose americanos come away with a huge win
48:09right now let's head back to raw as the best in the world cm punk return to the red hot brand to address
48:16the wwe universe following his victory alongside aj lee at wrestlepalooza second city saint has made
48:23his intentions clear to take back the world heavyweight championship it turns out punk isn't the only one
48:29with his sights set on gold
48:33what is this deja vu right now i tell you what we were in paris it's me it's you it's you and you
48:40always knocking my door always complaining my god man yeah you had the world heavyweight championship
48:48you lost it your time came it went here's what i'm telling you while you stand there thinking it's
48:57your time you're standing there thinking it's your time no no it's my time yeah and what i'm telling you
49:04is you think that you lost the title because you're not quite roman enough
49:10that ain't quite right my man i'll tell you this you're not roman reigns you're not going to be
49:14roman reigns as far as i'm concerned that's a good thing that's okay you carve your own path but where
49:19you carve your path your best shot right now you might want to focus on those tag titles although from
49:24what i saw last week you probably want to stop sucking at being a tag team
49:28but while i'm at it jimmy i didn't mean to give you any shrapnel i know you and i are good but this
49:37man keeps getting in my way and i will off your own switch and you got to understand what i will do
49:42to you but when i'm talking about you i got a super kick it was time to shut him up i guess said jay
49:51too much trash this evening into a fight up jay all right all right i'm assuming we're cool i'm
50:02assuming you interrupted him and not me but i understand your passion brother you want that
50:08heavyweight championship but you're gonna have to get in line behind me and the man does have a point
50:14maybe you should focus on being a tag team because i love jay usso
50:25i don't like little roman
50:31jimmy looking to get in the middle of punk and jay
50:37peacemaker just like john cena but it might not be enough this thing's ready to explode
50:44oh he tried to come around with a super kick and jimmy intercepted him
50:52it is heated oh punk gets it punk is on the attack a big right hand
50:57that's what i mean you stay out of my business
51:03oh and jimmy responds punk gates of jimmy out the way there
51:07you stay out of my business three men angling
51:16to be the number one contender for the world heavyweight championship jimmy

52:41monday night raw dominic mysterio finds himself in the crosshairs of another challenger when dirty dom
52:48defends the intercontinental championship against the man with no fear penta can dirty dominic mysterio
52:53stand his ground as king of the luchadors to retain the gold against one of the greatest luchadors
52:59in the world we're going to find out next monday on raw
53:05after multiple battles with the judgment day as well as some pretty bizarre interactions with
53:09her former ally bailey in recent weeks lyra valkyria will join forces with the role model
53:14as bailey and lyra take on a pair of common enemies roxanne perez and raquel rodriguez next monday on
53:20but before we move on to next week's stack car it's time to head back to dallas where the usos
53:28reunited for an epic clash with cm punk and la night last monday
53:36the usos cm punk and la night these four have only shared the ring one time and that was the royal rumble
53:43last winter when jay uso won it but unique circumstances we're dealing with tonight
53:49as cm punk came out was addressing the crowd talking about his future plans wanting to fight
53:53for the world heavyweight championship again la night got into the mix he was saying no it's my turn to
53:58get after it jay uso came down the next thing you know everybody's getting after everybody and here we
54:04are in a main event i'll tell you what really impresses me joe the there have been some clear tensions
54:09between the usos of late there's this horrible allegation that jay is trying to turn himself
54:13into little roman he's barking orders at jimmy when the bell rings they look as good as ever it's like
54:21that instinct kicks back in whatever issues they've had between themselves and roman go out of the
54:27window and they just click back into that top level tag team gear that they own eight times the tag team
54:37champions of course a week ago winning the tornado tag team match against the vision roman reigns
54:43playing a major role there as roman reigns as you alluded to is playing a major role in the psyche
54:49of jay so it's working i like this side of jay uso it's a little more cutthroat one point he was
54:56friends with la night but roman reigns told jay very specifically no it's about blood if they ain't blood you
55:02don't help them and la managed to help himself on that one get out of trouble but needs this tag
55:09oh a jumping neck breaker by la knight who is desperate to get to cm punk and let me posit this
55:16what would the smart thing to do have been there jump into a neck breaker or jump for the tag
55:22now la knight needs to make this tag feel like he had the opportunity he might make it anyway though
55:28he's close there it is here comes cm punk
55:36now dropping the man who super kicked him earlier tonight
55:41and jimmy was trying to play peacemaker the next thing you know punk pushed him aside
55:46threw a big right hand at jay uso and jimmy had decided it was time and the super kick was landing
55:56big running knee by punk right to that corner jewelry game flying off jimmy uso at one point
56:02and the referee has pocketed that sell that for a pretty penny post match but cm punk doesn't care
56:09about that he's got a wing in his sails we're gonna make a statement here this is less pawn shop and more
56:15big time concern with cm punk up on that top rope here in dallas looking to fly and deliver the elbow
56:31and he's saying it is time
56:37looking to line up the gts
56:39and jimmy able to free himself and land the super kick and now here comes jay
56:48just like that in sync the usos doing what they do best jay lands the splash to put this away hooks the
56:55leg and la knight comes in for the save la night with a little tag team timing there needed that because
57:03that was game over for bong this one breaking down and an inadvertent collision there between la night
57:11jimmy uso bft dropping jimmy a bft drops jimmy but then a super kick and here's the roll up
57:18this one's spilling out at all angles right now oh a big spear from jay usso
57:28straight out of the roman reigns playbook which is a playbook jay usso is firmly subscribed to at the
57:35moment remember jay took a bft well jay had the opportunity to finish punk there got distracted by la
57:42oh he's up he's got him in position punk's got him in position and the gts is to look what is
57:49what is la knight doing la knight just tacked himself in
58:05la knight did the work to close it out cm punk punk cm punk did the work and la knight took the glory
58:13tagged himself in their way let's take another look at this go to sleep from cm punk knocking jay usso
58:22out cold but before he could make the pin la knight scampers up tags punk and steals the victory now this
58:31win here is pivotal because it adds more weight to la's claim that he's got next on world heavyweight champ
58:39said freaking rollins half the crown jewel doesn't punk know it the next stop is 10 700 flight miles
58:49away perth australia remember a special start time of 8 a.m eastern on saturday for crown jewel best
