00:00:00The crossover star, everyone who is anyone knows exactly who Rhea Bloody Ripley is.
00:00:08And what a hero's evasion she's getting here.
00:00:11From the humble beginnings of Riot City Wrestling here in Australia,
00:00:16to becoming a three-time world champion, a royal Rumble winner, an NXT champion.
00:00:23Rhea Ripley is on top of the world.
00:00:26And now she hopes to follow in the footsteps of what fellow Australian Bronson Reed accomplished earlier tonight.
00:00:36And that was a victory over the OTC Roman Reigns.
00:00:41Hardball victory at that.
00:00:43And this is not going to be any easier for Rhea Ripley and her partner EO Sky.
00:00:47Now we talked about the breakup in the relationship between EO Sky and the Kabuki Warriors.
00:00:53The catalyst for that was Rhea Bloody Ripley.
00:00:57And Asuka was not impressed that EO was showing some loyalty to Rhea Ripley rather than staying with the original crew from Japan.
00:01:05That's where these issues really became a problem.
00:01:09Rhea Ripley and EO Sky go way back.
00:01:11They've been together a number of times in NXT.
00:01:13They've, of course, been competitors and rivals.
00:01:15Big, a lot has been made over the fact that Rhea's never been able to beat EO Sky in one-on-one action.
00:01:21But tonight they find themselves teammates.
00:01:23Oh, look out now.
00:01:25Kabuki Warriors wasting a little time going right after EO Sky and Rhea Ripley.
00:01:29And this is great strategy by the former tag champs.
00:01:31As well they should.
00:01:32I'll say right now, that shows a tag team in the Kabuki Warriors against two individuals,
00:01:38EO and Rhea Ripley, who are still having a powwow as the bell was ringing,
00:01:43trying to figure out who was starting the match.
00:01:44You know, I asked EO Sky yesterday if she could put all these feelings aside
00:01:48and actually fight her once former best friends.
00:01:51And she unacquivocally said, of course I can.
00:01:54And now the fight is underway.
00:01:55Ripley back into the ring.
00:01:56I'll tell you right now, I don't care how good a friend you are with anyone in this industry,
00:02:00when that bell rings, you better be ready to fight
00:02:03or you're in serious jeopardy of going straight to the hospital.
00:02:09Rhea Ripley, who knocked off Asuka in action a couple of weeks ago.
00:02:13Oh, my God.
00:02:14Driven headfirst into the post.
00:02:16What a smart move by Asuka there.
00:02:19And Kyrie Saints taking a dip out of the ring in the meantime.
00:02:22And now here we go.
00:02:24Asuka and EO Sky grew up together in the Japanese system.
00:02:29Former tag team in a group called Triple Tails.
00:02:33Becoming the best of friends as they came to WWE NXT in the United States.
00:02:38And now opponents tonight.
00:02:46Loyalty and respect are huge in Japanese wrestling culture.
00:02:50What was the maternal relationship between Asuka and her protege EO?
00:02:55Well, that's all out the window here.
00:02:57Yeah, the high-octane offense of the genius of the sky, EO Sky.
00:03:02And I unabashedly say, Wade, I believe she's the greatest wrestler on the planet today.
00:03:06I'm certainly not going to argue with her.
00:03:08However, the mentor, Asuka, probably knows a few tricks that she never taught EO.
00:03:13Yeah, the empress of tomorrow, Asuka, in that conversation as well.
00:03:17Asuka, greatest NXT women's champion of all time.
00:03:22EO really is a woman who was at the peak of her powers this year.
00:03:25Not long removed from being world champion.
00:03:29And lost it through money in the bank cash-in.
00:03:31Yeah, between the two in the ring, five world championships combined.
00:03:35Both have been NXT title holders as well.
00:03:40Now EO and Asuka, which is a classic match-up no matter how you look at it.
00:03:45Asuka, there's the quickness.
00:03:50These two know each other's strengths and weaknesses so well.
00:03:53Oh, EO Sky with a dropkick to Asuka.
00:03:56Ability to second-guess what their opponent is going to do.
00:03:59Don't forget, this is a tag match,
00:04:01as much as it seems to have turned into a one-on-one for the time being.
00:04:07EO Sky looking to teach Asuka perhaps a lesson in respect.
00:04:15And Asuka rolls out of harm's way.
00:04:20Great move by the veteran.
00:04:21Barely now in the ring, she had to.
00:04:22She was under a...
00:04:23EO suicide dive!
00:04:26It's never felt more suicidal than when EO Sky does it so reckless with her own body.
00:04:33And Kairi Sane tried to help Asuka out, ran into her right hand.
00:04:37But that distraction allows Asuka to take over.
00:04:40And that kick, did you hear that?
00:04:42Well, that head straight into the steel was exactly what took down Rhea Ripley.
00:04:46And we've not seen her six.
00:04:48And now it looks like it's flatline EO Sky.
00:04:51Look at this dive from EO.
00:04:53It always looks completely reckless, but it's always so effective.
00:04:58And now finally, Rhea Ripley has been stirring.
00:05:01Battle was wrong a few moments ago.
00:05:04Her battle was wrong, I should say.
00:05:05Not the match battle.
00:05:07But now it's EO Sky who is the legal one for that team.
00:05:11And she's in trouble.
00:05:12She hit the postcard.
00:05:13And a big kick by Asuka.
00:05:15EO trying to drag herself back into the ring.
00:05:23Count of five now by the official Jessica Carr.
00:05:26Fast count Carr, as she's known.
00:05:28That's actually the nickname you gave her.
00:05:30It's true.
00:05:31She is a fast count.
00:05:32EO's in trouble.
00:05:33EO, you're at eight now.
00:05:34EO, you're at eight.
00:05:35And she just beats the count back into the ring.
00:05:37Of wanting to stay down there, EO, and just take the loss.
00:05:47And this is the pace you want now, if you're the Kabuki Warriors.
00:05:50Well, you've got a wounded EO Sky who has had the stuff he knocked out of her.
00:05:54Is not moving well at all.
00:05:55It's looking defenseless.
00:05:56Yeah, you can slow this down to whatever pace you want.
00:06:00EO simply isn't capable of fighting back.
00:06:03One, two, three.
00:06:06Torturous hold here from Kyrie saying, just pick your shot right now.
00:06:11All the time in the world to abuse the body of EO Sky.
00:06:15And Kyrie off the top rope.
00:06:17Oh, and there's that flying forearm.
00:06:19Cover now.
00:06:20Stacks up EO for the win.
00:06:21And a kick out by EO Sky.
00:06:23Kyrie might have hit EO a little too hard out there.
00:06:26Almost bounced all the way across the ring.
00:06:28And within the range of Rhea Ripley.
00:06:30The one thing that I will give Asuka credit for when it comes to Kyrie saying,
00:06:34she's brought off the aggression in Kyrie.
00:06:38Well, it took long enough.
00:06:39Kyrie saying was almost hesitant to strike EO Sky a couple of weeks ago.
00:06:44And I guess she's bought into the propaganda.
00:06:47I guess she's been brainwashed by Asuka.
00:06:49You see the way that she's assaulted EO Sky in this matchup tonight.
00:06:53Well, Kyrie's not an ingrate like EO Sky.
00:06:55Kyrie appreciates what Asuka has done for her career.
00:06:58She shows loyalty to Asuka, to her mentor,
00:07:02to the woman who brought her all the way to the top here in WWE.
00:07:05Well, if I'm EO Sky, I'd go it alone.
00:07:07She's had a lot of success that way as Asuka now just having her way with Sky.
00:07:12Continues to punish EO.
00:07:15How's that success going for you now, EO Sky?
00:07:17Now Asuka just mouthing off to Rhea Ripley.
00:07:20Her attitude is incredible.
00:07:22I understood what they were saying tonight.
00:07:43Unlike last night.
00:07:45Oh, and a kick by Asuka to the spot.
00:07:47Don't give me the mic.
00:07:47I'm not repeating that one.
00:07:49And Asuka again.
00:07:50And look at Asuka go.
00:07:54Well precision strikes by the Empress of Tomorrow.
00:07:58And right now it looks like a...
00:08:00And a cheap shot by Kyrie.
00:08:01It looks like a mentor against a rookie in there.
00:08:05And that is how easy it has been for the Kabuki Warriors
00:08:08since they took the upper hand against EO Sky.
00:08:11It really was that head shot against the steel post of Sky
00:08:15that has completely taken the wind out of a sail.
00:08:17Asuka is so smug.
00:08:21And EO trying to fight back.
00:08:23Trying to get to make a tag to Rhea Ripley.
00:08:25If that tag's made, this place is going to explode.
00:08:27How badly does Rhea Ripley need to get into this match?
00:08:30How badly does EO Sky need to get out of this match?
00:08:34What a blow to the back of the head.
00:08:36And now just...
00:08:37Look at...
00:08:37Just mocking Ripley.
00:08:39I really don't like Asuka,
00:08:40but I find it incredibly entertaining.
00:08:43Brilliant competitor, of course.
00:08:44We both agree on that.
00:08:46I said earlier,
00:08:46I had a very unique perspective
00:08:47when it came to Asuka and Kyrie yesterday
00:08:49at the kickoff show.
00:08:51And Asuka missed wildly with a kick.
00:08:52EO trying to make it across the wing.
00:08:54Tag made.
00:08:54Kyrie's legal.
00:08:55Can Kyrie prevent EO Sky from making the tag?
00:08:57And she does.
00:08:59Good job, Kyrie.
00:09:00Following orders to AT.
00:09:02We are fucking...
00:09:03No, you're not!
00:09:05Now Kyrie knocking off to Rhea.
00:09:07A little bit of that attitude.
00:09:08We are family.
00:09:09That's what Kyrie is saying to Rhea Ripley.
00:09:11And you know full well,
00:09:12Kyrie would re-embrace EO Sky at a moment's notice.
00:09:15Oh, it!
00:09:16EO has to make that decision for herself.
00:09:19Kyrie went for a cheap shot.
00:09:20Rhea Ripley drawn into the ring.
00:09:22Wise move by Kyrie Sands.
00:09:23It's going to allow the double team.
00:09:27And Rhea Ripley is causing this beatdown of EO Sky.
00:09:32She's becoming completely unhinged in the corner.
00:09:35I told you, Rhea felt guilty last week
00:09:37when EO got misted on Raw.
00:09:39And she wasn't there because she was in Australia
00:09:41taking care of her personal and business issues.
00:09:44EO Sky!
00:09:46EO Sky!
00:09:47EO Sky!
00:09:47EO Sky!
00:09:48EO Sky!
00:09:48EO Sky!
00:09:48And again, you heard the we are family before it laid
00:09:51that Asuka and Kyrie blamed Rhea Ripley for EO Sky.
00:09:55Rhea leaving the nest, so to speak.
00:09:58And EO trying to fight back now.
00:10:00Look at EO go!
00:10:01As tough as they come!
00:10:02Harder shots you will not see in a wrestling ring.
00:10:06Oh my God!
00:10:07Backhand!
00:10:08Oh, what a backhand!
00:10:09And a kick by Asuka!
00:10:10How is EO still standing?
00:10:12No idea!
00:10:13They were like four KO blows in a row!
00:10:17EO's ate them all!
00:10:18I don't think she knows where the hell she's at!
00:10:20But that's probably a good thing!
00:10:21She's going to find out real quickly that Kyrie Sane's legal.
00:10:29Oh, goodness!
00:10:30EO Sky's done!
00:10:32Cover by Sane!
00:10:34Hooks the leg!
00:10:35And a kick out!
00:10:35But that was a great cover by Kyrie
00:10:37to grab the leg closest to the rope,
00:10:40forcing Sky to expend energy by kicking out.
00:10:43That was ridiculous!
00:10:44Every single shot that the Kabuki Warriors
00:10:48are throwing at the body of EO Sky.
00:10:51What an absolute mugging this has turned into!
00:10:54And Rhea Ripley in the corner,
00:10:56probably feeling fresh as a daisy.
00:10:58Yeah, but the anxiety set it in for Rhea.
00:11:02She understands this is a critical moment
00:11:04that her friend EO's in trouble.
00:11:05And this audience here came here
00:11:10expecting the Rhea Ripley show.
00:11:13She's not gone that way at all.
00:11:15Far from it.
00:11:16It has been all the Empress of Tomorrow
00:11:18and her tag team partner Kyrie Sane
00:11:21showing you why they've been
00:11:23multiple-time world tag champions.
00:11:26So much hatred here.
00:11:28But somehow weathering the storm
00:11:30as EO's going to...
00:11:31Oh, my God!
00:11:32EO!
00:11:33EO switching gears!
00:11:39I'm not going to slap this baby.
00:11:43More angry.
00:11:47I'm so glad I'm retired.
00:11:52EO with Asuka.
00:11:53Face down goes Asuka!
00:11:55EO with an opportunity!
00:11:57That was a right move for EO Sky.
00:11:59That was a strike pass.
00:12:01Knocking lumps out of each other.
00:12:03Pull out a flapjack.
00:12:04Unexpectedly.
00:12:06And brought yourself a chance
00:12:07to crawl and escape from this.
00:12:11And blow the roof off this place!
00:12:13Here comes Rhea Ripley!
00:12:16The eradicator!
00:12:24Bang!
00:12:25Goes...
00:12:25Down goes Kyrie.
00:12:27Asuka runs into a dropkick.
00:12:29The most physically dominant woman
00:12:31this industry has ever seen!
00:12:34What about the power?
00:12:37This is Rhea Ripley.
00:12:38Cover!
00:12:38One!
00:12:39Two!
00:12:41Kyrie.
00:12:41Able to kick out.
00:12:42Remembering being missed it
00:12:44and beaten down
00:12:45by the Kabuki ball
00:12:46as a couple of weeks ago.
00:12:47Check this kick out!
00:12:49Boom!
00:12:49Ouch!
00:12:52One of the Matildas players
00:12:54putting that ball
00:12:55in the back of the net.
00:12:56However it was the skull
00:12:57of Kyrie Sane
00:12:59it's football or soccer over here.
00:13:01Oh now
00:13:02looking for the racer's edge
00:13:03and Kyrie Sane
00:13:04here will be a
00:13:05workout of that maneuver.
00:13:08Kyrie Sane has been
00:13:08absolutely vicious tonight
00:13:10and I'm loving it!
00:13:11Yeah it's been a new look
00:13:12Kyrie Sane tonight.
00:13:14I think Asuka
00:13:15finally uh
00:13:15I think Kyrie Sane
00:13:18basically said
00:13:18I just gotta
00:13:19deal with Asuka
00:13:20and do what she tells me
00:13:21and it's been effective.
00:13:23Try and match
00:13:24the kind of abuse
00:13:25that Asuka
00:13:26regularly throws
00:13:27at her opponents
00:13:28and Kyrie has done
00:13:28a sterling job
00:13:30this evening
00:13:30they've now neutralized
00:13:32Rhea Ripley.
00:13:34Covered out
00:13:34by Asuka
00:13:36on the Shining Wizard
00:13:37and a kick out
00:13:38by Rhea Ripley.
00:13:39It's Kinshasa-esque.
00:13:43Shinsuke Nakamura
00:13:44type shot there
00:13:45to the jaw of Ripley.
00:13:46Yeah we saw the return
00:13:47of Shinsuke
00:13:48on Friday night's
00:13:49Smackdown last night.
00:13:52And now
00:13:52Kyrie Sane
00:13:53up to the top rope
00:13:54Rhea with a clothesline
00:13:56and now Kyrie
00:13:57nobody home
00:13:58went for that
00:13:58flying forearm
00:13:59and Rhea
00:14:00what a kick!
00:14:01She about
00:14:01decapitated Kyrie.
00:14:03Man these women
00:14:04are going bananas
00:14:05in this ring tonight.
00:14:07Just the heaviness
00:14:09of hitters
00:14:09and now
00:14:10Io Sky
00:14:11back in the fight.
00:14:14Rhea with a razor's edge.
00:14:17Oh!
00:14:17What a high landing
00:14:18on the back
00:14:18of the neck
00:14:19of Kyrie Sane.
00:14:20And Io Sky
00:14:21the genius
00:14:22of the sky

00:14:29Cover for Io!
00:14:31Two!
00:14:32Somehow!
00:14:34Kyrie survives!
00:14:35Yeah I've no idea
00:14:37how Kyrie
00:14:37saved him down
00:14:38in this.
00:14:39A little tribute
00:14:39to the Terra Twins
00:14:41Damian Priest
00:14:42followed up
00:14:42by this shot
00:14:44from Kyrie

00:14:46excuse me
00:14:47Io Sky.
00:14:49I mean
00:14:50how tough
00:14:51are these four women?
00:14:52How hard wearing
00:14:53have they had to be?
00:14:55As physical
00:14:56as it comes
00:14:58Io Sky
00:14:59not going to allow
00:15:00Kyrie
00:15:00to make the tag
00:15:02as she shook
00:15:02her head
00:15:03at
00:15:03and Asuka
00:15:05Kyrie
00:15:06able to counter
00:15:07and now
00:15:09Sane
00:15:10with an Alabama
00:15:11slam.
00:15:16Kyrie
00:15:17with a
00:15:17cheap shot
00:15:18to Ripley.
00:15:19It's about
00:15:19a smarter thing
00:15:20as you can do
00:15:20you might not like it
00:15:21but get Ripley
00:15:22down now.
00:15:23Io Sky
00:15:23even if she
00:15:24gets to the corner
00:15:25there's no one
00:15:26there to save you Io.
00:15:28Io back to her feet
00:15:29it looked like
00:15:29Kyrie was setting up
00:15:30for the insane
00:15:31elbow
00:15:32and
00:15:32oh a deep
00:15:33arm drag
00:15:34from off the ropes
00:15:35for Sky.
00:15:37And Io
00:15:38is going to go up top
00:15:39He was looking for
00:15:44over the moonsault
00:15:45before Asuka
00:15:46provided the distraction
00:15:47and Kyrie Sane
00:15:48takes control.
00:15:49ahead of Io
00:15:50just bounced
00:15:51off the top
00:15:51of that ring post
00:15:52nothing the referee
00:15:54can do
00:15:55Asuka did not
00:15:55touch Io
00:15:56ducked out of the way
00:15:57and now
00:15:58goading Rhea Ripley
00:15:59on a baseball slide
00:16:02drops Rhea
00:16:03to the floor
00:16:03again
00:16:04what a master plan
00:16:05by the Kabuki Warriors
00:16:06just baiting Rhea Ripley
00:16:07in and pouncing
00:16:08disabling
00:16:10powerhouse Australian
00:16:12and again
00:16:13the Kabuki Warriors
00:16:14have had an answer
00:16:15for everything
00:16:16they have dominated
00:16:18this match
00:16:18since the get-go.
00:16:19Well that's how you
00:16:20win tag team matchups
00:16:21you get on the same page
00:16:22you build chemistry
00:16:23and yeah
00:16:24you can put it down
00:16:25good individuals too
00:16:26but that's the difference
00:16:27Io Sky
00:16:28oh here we go
00:16:29a springboard moonsault
00:16:31from Io
00:16:32I'm going to say
00:16:34Sky and Rhea Ripley
00:16:36just don't have
00:16:37that same telepathy
00:16:38that the Kabuki Warriors
00:16:39do but Sky
00:16:40might win this
00:16:41on her own now.
00:16:42Io sending Kyrie
00:16:43back into the ring
00:16:44Kyrie rolls
00:16:44to the corner
00:16:45being serenaded
00:16:49by the
00:16:49sold out crowd
00:16:50here tonight
00:16:51and there's Io's
00:16:53bullet train attack
00:16:55as Kyrie
00:17:00where she wants her
00:17:02Io
00:17:03up to the top rope
00:17:04Sky
00:17:07with over the moonsault
00:17:09here's the cover
00:17:11Asuka just saving
00:17:14the match

00:17:29in a second
00:17:30referee giving

00:33:25Introducing
00:33:26first
00:33:27from Davenport,
00:33:30Iowa.
00:33:31Weighing in
00:33:32at 225
00:33:36pounds,
00:33:37he is
00:33:38the world
00:33:40heavyweight
00:33:41champion,
00:33:44Seth
00:33:45Vuriken
00:33:46Rollins.
00:34:07And his
00:34:08opponent
00:34:09from Atlanta,
00:34:13Georgia.
00:34:15Weighing in
00:34:16at 222 pounds,
00:34:21he is
00:34:23the undisputed
00:34:25WWE
00:34:27champion,
00:34:29the
00:34:31American
00:34:32Nightmare,
00:34:35Cody
00:34:35Rhodes.
00:34:40The man who is known as
00:34:42Quarterback One,
00:34:43who wants to do for
00:34:45WWE over the last
00:34:46next two decades
00:34:47what John Cena did
00:34:49the past two decades.
00:34:51Lead this company
00:34:52into the future.
00:34:53For Seth Rollins,
00:35:05what he has built
00:35:05over the past year
00:35:06is at stake.
00:35:08His vision
00:35:09is at stake
00:35:10in a must-win
00:35:11situation.
00:35:12Earlier tonight,
00:35:13Bronson Reed
00:35:14and Braun
00:35:14Breaker
00:35:15destroyed Roman Reigns.
00:35:18Reed
00:35:18pinning Reigns
00:35:19and in fact
00:35:20perhaps
00:35:21destroying
00:35:22the bloodline.
00:35:24If Rollins
00:35:24loses tonight,
00:35:25what does that do
00:35:26for Braun
00:35:27and Bronson
00:35:28as they look
00:35:28to this man
00:35:29for leadership?
00:35:30Will the vision
00:35:31disintegrate
00:35:32before our very eyes?
00:35:33I know Seth hasn't
00:35:49talked to many people
00:35:50Wade over the past
00:35:51couple of weeks
00:35:52but he did tell me
00:35:55heading into this
00:35:56matchup that he was
00:35:57his gear was going
00:35:58to be bits of gear
00:36:01that he wore in
00:36:02his matches
00:36:03against Cody Rhodes
00:36:05over the past
00:36:06number of years
00:36:07and then of course
00:36:08the watch
00:36:09of Seth Rollins.
00:36:14Those polka dots,
00:36:16we've seen those
00:36:16before.
00:36:17It's from the
00:36:18Hell in a Cell match
00:36:19between them.
00:36:20These are the ghosts
00:36:21of Seth's past
00:36:23with Cody.
00:36:24A reminder
00:36:25of the demons
00:36:26he is trying
00:36:26to exercise tonight.
00:36:29And now Rollins
00:36:29and Cody Rhodes
00:36:31start this matchup
00:36:31off and
00:36:32very aggressive
00:36:32Rollins in the
00:36:33early going.
00:36:40He's fired up
00:36:41for this one.
00:36:42It's laser focused
00:36:43and if you aren't
00:36:45laser focused
00:36:46when you've got
00:36:46so much in your mind
00:36:48you are in danger
00:36:49of unraveling.
00:36:52There's a couple
00:36:52of times in the
00:36:53early goings here
00:36:54Seth has over
00:36:55committed
00:36:56and it hasn't
00:36:57worked out.
00:36:58Wade there's just
00:36:59some point in your
00:36:59career that there's
00:37:00someone who has
00:37:00your number right
00:37:01I mean that you're
00:37:02just not going to
00:37:02everyone have my
00:37:03number.
00:37:04That you're just
00:37:04not going to be
00:37:05able to beat.
00:37:05I agree but that's
00:37:07Seth Wallins
00:37:08that isn't the case
00:37:09and that's the big
00:37:10issue because the
00:37:11only person that's
00:37:12ever been the case
00:37:13with is Cody Rhodes.
00:37:14this is the Achilles heel
00:37:16and that's why Seth has
00:37:17taken that so badly.
00:37:19Seth sees himself as
00:37:20the unabashed number
00:37:22one and again Cody
00:37:24just turned around
00:37:25and when Seth Wallins
00:37:28looked like he was
00:37:29breaking up some
00:37:30momentum took it
00:37:31away from him.
00:37:31Cody now vertical
00:37:32suplex to Rollins
00:37:34face first goes
00:37:35Seth and Cody is
00:37:37fired up again.
00:37:37This is for the
00:37:38bragging rights as
00:37:39Rollins gets upset
00:37:40with the official
00:37:41Rollins is upset
00:37:43with himself more
00:37:44than the official
00:37:45he's yelling at the
00:37:46official perhaps but
00:37:47he knows he's beaten
00:37:48himself in the early
00:37:49goings here.
00:37:50Sean Bennett working
00:37:51this matchup.
00:37:52And now listen to
00:37:53this jab there getting
00:37:54in the head of Seth
00:37:55too it's all
00:37:55conspiring to pull
00:37:58the visionary himself
00:38:00downwards tonight.
00:38:01Yeah but if Rollins
00:38:02is going to be
00:38:02considered an all-time
00:38:03great he's got to
00:38:04focus these are the
00:38:04matchups he needs to
00:38:05focus in he can't
00:38:06allow the WWE fans to
00:38:08get in his head he
00:38:09can't worry about what
00:38:09Paul Heyman's thinking
00:38:10and what Braun and
00:38:11Bronson are thinking
00:38:12he's got to take care
00:38:13of business tonight
00:38:13and knock off the one
00:38:14man he's never been
00:38:15able to beat.
00:38:17The Seth issue
00:38:17I mean this just does
00:38:31not all go well
00:38:33whatsoever for Seth
00:38:35Rollins who's
00:38:36completely losing his
00:38:37mind in the early
00:38:38goings.
00:38:39you can see how much
00:38:40Cody is getting into
00:38:41the head of Seth
00:38:43Rollins here.
00:38:44Cody playing the game
00:38:45right.
00:38:47Taking what Rollins is
00:38:48giving him here.
00:38:52Seth really needs to
00:38:53lock in or this is
00:38:54going to go south in a
00:38:56hurry.
00:38:57And I think that
00:38:57little walk around the
00:38:58outside of the ring
00:38:59once he blocked out
00:39:00the audience probably
00:39:01did the world of good
00:39:02for Seth Rollins.
00:39:03tip of the ring on the
00:39:21road.
00:39:21Let's just do it.
00:39:22Let's just do it.
00:39:25Rollins turns around here with a cheap shot.
00:39:28He runs into a forearm of Rhodes.
00:39:30Cody, you just want to fight.
00:39:31Well, Cody's always game for a fight.
00:39:36Rollins with a kick.
00:39:40Rollins with a calm.
00:39:43Now looking for a pedigree.
00:39:45Cody able to duck out of it.
00:39:46Oh, and a big right hand to Rollins.
00:39:48This is going horribly.
00:39:50And now Cody Rhodes sends Seth Rollins
00:39:52over the top.
00:39:54Seth Rollins, every single time you see him in that ring,
00:39:58he is the picture of ice cold cool.
00:40:01Tonight he has nothing to taste at all.
00:40:03I mean, right from the early goings,
00:40:05he's trying to drop the big blocks.
00:40:08That is not how Seth Rollins operates.
00:40:10He's still going to fit.
00:40:12I mean, he's going for a stomp right at the early goings.
00:40:15He's going for a pedigree at the early goings.
00:40:18Seth Rollins is unraveling before our eyes.
00:40:21And this is how you lose a match for somebody like Cody Rhodes.
00:40:24And this is perhaps why the Achilles heel that is Cody Rhodes
00:40:28has been such a big problem in Seth Rollins.
00:40:31This is on you.
00:40:32You think it.
00:40:34You think, Seth.
00:40:35You think it.
00:40:35Seth, just relax now.
00:40:37Just relax.
00:40:38Come on.
00:40:40Relax.
00:40:40I'm not even involved in this thing.
00:40:42Come on now.
00:40:48You okay?
00:40:49I'm good, Cody.
00:40:49Yeah.
00:40:51They'll take care of him now.
00:40:54Uh-oh.
00:40:54Cody Rhodes.
00:40:55Set to the table.
00:40:56Flying.
00:40:57Seth Rollins in trouble here.
00:41:01Rollins, though, took advantage.
00:41:04Now he drives Rhodes into the steel steps.
00:41:06And now Rollins driving Cody Rhodes into the announce table.
00:41:15And Rollins, who's completely unhinged here tonight,
00:41:18is trying to turn this into his favor.
00:41:20An emotional Seth Rollins.
00:41:22He seems to be turning it around now, finally.
00:41:25And the place is getting absolutely trashed.
00:41:27Referee giving a long count to everybody here.
00:41:30Seth Rollins now on the barricade.
00:41:33Rhodes is in deep trouble.
00:41:34Doesn't want to be in that spot, Wade.
00:41:36Seth Rollins.
00:41:37Oh!
00:41:38The shoulders of Rhodes driving him to the floor.
00:41:42Don't forget that Cody has had major shoulder issues before.
00:41:46Related to that pec tear he's suffered in there.
00:41:49And a cover now by Rollins and a kick out.
00:41:51Hell in a cell match.
00:41:55Rollins is just, he's acting desperately as what he's doing here.
00:41:59In this matchup.
00:42:00Cover off the suplex to Rhodes.
00:42:02And a kick out by Cody.
00:42:03Well, I'd argue that that desperation has finally started to pay off for Seth Rollins.
00:42:07It went horribly wrong in the early goings.
00:42:09And I don't know what the hell that was about with us two.
00:42:11Well, he lost control.
00:42:12Well, finally, he's locked back in.
00:42:13And he's got control of the match.
00:42:15Which is really the entire point of tonight for Seth.
00:42:18Oh, and Cody fighting back.
00:42:19It is, it's 15 years.
00:42:21Seth Rollins has made a career out of being in control.
00:42:24The things that he has done to better his career and better himself
00:42:27is because he's in control of the situation.
00:42:29Cover now by Rollins.
00:42:30Is it enough?
00:42:31Cody's got to kick out at two.
00:42:32Well, somehow inadvertently, he's managed to get in control of the situation tonight.
00:42:38And is looking back to being dominant once again.
00:42:42Yeah, but, but wait, can he finish the job here tonight?
00:42:45Can he finally beat Rhodes?
00:42:47History would suggest no based on the track record between these two.
00:42:51However, the future demands that, yes, he has to finish this.
00:42:55Rollins kicked to the midsection.
00:42:57Trying to hook Cody again.
00:42:58And Cody Rhodes able to turn it around.
00:43:00Looking for the figure four.
00:43:02And Seth Rollins counters.
00:43:04And now Rollins kick again.
00:43:08Cody will land on his feet.
00:43:11And Seth Rollins is best there.
00:43:13Pershing into a power bomb.
00:43:14Here's the cover and a kick out by Cody.
00:43:17God, that was the absolute best of Seth Rollins right there.
00:43:20And this is now the absolute worst of this version of Seth.
00:43:24It looked like Cody was going to go for the disaster kick here.
00:43:26Yeah, he was.
00:43:27And Seth Rollins is right there and he turned it into that sit-out power bomb.
00:43:29Well, not only do you have to have amazing reflexes, but incredible technique there.
00:43:34Seth Rollins really does have it all.
00:43:36Apart from his faculties right now.
00:43:38As he's continuing to scream at the referee.
00:43:41It's why I find it odd.
00:43:43Seth Rollins with wounds like that has proven he is among the best on the entire planet.
00:43:48He's a six-time world champion.
00:43:50But he's just let Rhodes get into his head.
00:43:53He's been eating up with ego over the fact that he can't be Cody.
00:43:56I wouldn't say it's ego.
00:43:57It's his entire future.
00:43:59He needs to keep Paul Heyman on side.
00:44:01He needs to keep the vision on side.
00:44:03He needs to remain the leader of this industry.
00:44:06It's far bigger than just simple ego.
00:44:09It's ego.
00:44:09His entire career has been ego.
00:44:11His entire career has been about nobody but himself.
00:44:14It's been all about Seth Rollins.
00:44:16Primary motivation of Seth Rollins has always been the advancement of this industry.
00:44:22So on day one, he's taken this industry to new heights.
00:44:26And he can only do that if he's leading from the very front.
00:44:29He wants to be the guy.
00:44:31He wants to be QB1.
00:44:33The problem is somebody else currently is in that role.
00:44:36Well, then act like it.
00:44:37How about that?
00:44:38Well, you act like that by beating the guy who is in the role of QB1.
00:44:42Let the world know, Seth.
00:44:44Cody trying to drag himself back in and he's hurting.
00:44:52Rollins, as you mentioned before, Wade, he's starting to settle in now.
00:44:55And he's starting to believe a little bit more.
00:44:58Well, I'll tell you right now, some guys, and Seth isn't usually like that, are slow starters in matches.
00:45:03I always was in my career.
00:45:04I needed to be kicked around for a few minutes before I really slotted into game mode.
00:45:10And the adrenaline was running.
00:45:11And you feel like Seth got through that early ten minutes of the match.
00:45:15And he's finally looking right hard.
00:45:16He still has an issue with what you're saying here.
00:45:18You can't hear what I'm saying.
00:45:19I'm saying good things about you, Seth.
00:45:21You're a waker now, huh?
00:45:22They said it, Seth, not me.
00:45:24That's not my opinion.
00:45:27I shouldn't have said that thing on SmackDown.
00:45:29Yeah, you almost got me beat up because you're a big mouth.
00:45:32Now pick your ass apart.
00:45:35Every part of this body, bitch.
00:45:38I'll rip you a bone.
00:45:46Well, you're not getting it.
00:45:47I promise you that way.
00:45:48I'm staying sitting here.
00:45:50I don't know what's good for me.
00:45:54And Cody fighting back now.
00:45:55Taking the fight to Rollins.
00:46:01Dragon screw by Rollins.
00:46:03And Cody's all beat up.
00:46:05Bad arm, bad leg now.
00:46:07And that confidence crisis of Seth Rollins,
00:46:09you just see it dissipating as the seconds tick by.
00:46:13The confidence started to seep out of these paws.
00:46:16And again, talk about overconfidence.
00:46:20Now this is ridiculous.
00:46:22The man has not beaten Cody Rhodes,
00:46:23and now he's screwing around doing cartwheels in the ring.
00:46:26Well, that's a little stardust for you, isn't it?
00:46:28Two can play at the mind games, you know.
00:46:30Let me get into your head.
00:46:31Remember who you really are, Cody.
00:46:33You're not QB1.
00:46:35You're stardust.
00:46:35Oh, Dusty.
00:46:36Now again, concentrate on beating the man, finally.
00:46:38Then you can do all the cartwheels you want.
00:46:40You're going to be able to paint your face great if you want.
00:46:44And again, you know what he's doing there.
00:46:50Rhodes' dad, the late, great American dream.
00:46:52Dusty Rhodes and Cody fighting back, though.
00:46:55Yeah, pushed the wrong button on that one, didn't you, Seth?
00:46:57Uh-oh, and Rollins' takedown.
00:46:59And now Seth looking for a figure four.
00:47:02And Rollins trying to lock it in.
00:47:05Center of the ring, and now Cody's in trouble.
00:47:07Still in one of Cody's own moves there.
00:47:09Again, the mind games and the physical torture continue.
00:47:12You get him, Cody Rhodes.
00:47:17Cody, you want to quit?
00:47:19I'm not doing it.
00:47:20No, no.
00:47:22Cody, you still.
00:47:24Cody doesn't have any quit in him.
00:47:25Trying to roll onto his belly and reverse the leverage here.
00:47:29Reverse the pressure.
00:47:35Rollins brings him right back to the middle of the ring.
00:47:38And Cody's in trouble here.
00:47:40Here's the issue.
00:47:41Cody.
00:47:41Shoulders down.
00:47:42A lot of energy trying to reverse that pressure.
00:47:44Didn't work.
00:47:45Can you just let the player beat your head down his ass, son?
00:47:48I'm not a way for you to say.
00:47:51Cody.
00:47:52I'm not a way for you to do it.
00:47:54No.
00:47:55No.
00:47:56No.
00:47:56No.
00:47:58No.
00:47:59No.
00:47:59Cody reverses it.
00:48:02And now Cody Rhodes has control.
00:48:04And Rollins is in pain.
00:48:05And Seth needs to make it to the rope for a break.
00:48:08Come on, boy.
00:48:09Hey.
00:48:09Bring it up.
00:48:10Again, Rollins feeling the effect of that reversal on the figure four.
00:48:21CMR! CMR! CMR! CMR!
00:48:24That's one way to get in a Rollins skin.
00:48:26I mean, they've done it nonstop since the second Seth Rollins walked out here.
00:48:31Seth Rollins against everybody at the moment.
00:48:34And it's not working out too well for Seth.
00:48:36Even match-up so far.
00:48:50Cody.
00:48:52Big right hand.
00:48:53Oh, no.
00:48:53Seth still holding on.
00:48:56Oh, and hanging up Cody on the top rope.
00:48:57Seth Rollins at his best. He's just a little bit quicker than Cody Rhodes.
00:49:02Always has been a freakish mover as Seth Rollins.
00:49:06Right now, Cody cooking up something here.
00:49:15Cody's got Rollins in all kinds of trouble here.
00:49:20Oh, goodness!
00:49:24Both men down.
00:49:27The vertebrae action here. Shout out, Shane Helms.
00:49:36Cody has so much taken out of it, did not follow it up with a pin.
00:49:42This is for the Crown Jewel Championship.
00:49:45Cody Rhodes, the inaugural Crown Jewel Champion.
00:49:48Madeline Seth Rollins here tonight, champion versus champion.
00:49:52Cody blocks.
00:50:05Bill's momentum down goes Rollins.
00:50:10And there's a power slam.
00:50:12And is this where Seth Rollins starts to spiral once again?
00:50:16You had your time of dominance.
00:50:18It is back.
00:50:19Disaster kick!
00:50:19And now Cody in the ascendancy and looking unstoppable.
00:50:24Now the left hands, the South Park Cody.
00:50:30Bionic elbow!
00:50:33And Seth driven out of the ring.
00:50:35Well, spilling to the outside rather fortuitously, but there's nowhere to hide here.
00:50:39And a suicide dive driving Rollins into the barricade.
00:50:43Cody with all the momentum in the world.
00:50:46And it's all again just going wrong for Seth Rollins.
00:50:54Maybe it's too much pressure on his shoulders.
00:50:57Too much weight to carry in the vision.
00:51:02The vision of the future starting to slip away before our eyes.
00:51:07Cody now off the second row.
00:51:09Cody Connor!
00:51:10Cover by Rhodes to win the Crown Jewel Championship.
00:51:14Rollins gets the shoulder up.
00:51:17What a...
00:51:18Another look at this.
00:51:22Cody Cutter.
00:51:24Draven cuts the Seth freaking Rollins.
00:51:27A further test of ambition in this industry.
00:51:30Who is the guy?
00:51:32Who is the superlative best?
00:51:34And if you're a betting man, you are betting on QB1 himself.
00:51:38Cody dragging himself back to his feet.
00:51:47Has Rollins where he wants him.
00:51:49Looking at Crossroads to put Seth away.
00:51:51Seth, though.
00:51:53Able to load Cody up.
00:51:54Kick out at two.
00:51:57Oh, and a step up in Zaguri.
00:51:58Caught Cody.
00:51:59Cropped down.
00:52:02He caught him.
00:52:03That was unique.
00:52:04A little trick for you.
00:52:05Oh, and Rollins.
00:52:09Pedigree!
00:52:10Seth for the win!
00:52:12One, two...
00:52:13Cody's still in it!
00:52:15Well, dropping those heavy bombs now is Seth.
00:52:17He tried right at the beginning of the match.
00:52:19It was way too early, but now you've got your opponent softened off.
00:52:22Nice kick to the gut following up with that pedigree.
00:52:25It is a move that Seth has won countless matches with.
00:52:30It's a little different when you're in there with a WWE champion.
00:52:33The level of Cody Rhodes.
00:52:36The two best in our game right now.
00:52:39The RAC Arena in Perth sold out tonight over 13,000.
00:52:44On hand for WWE Clown Jewel.
00:52:48Question remains.
00:52:50Who is going to continue pulling the train into this brave new world?
00:52:54Cody Rhodes, or the man on top right now, Seth freaking Rollins.
00:53:00Cody back to his feet.
00:53:02Hooks Rollins.
00:53:04At the crossroads.
00:53:06Seth!
00:53:07Crossroads of his own!
00:53:08Cover by Rollins!
00:53:10One, two, one!
00:53:12Cody somehow gets out!
00:53:15Cody living dangerously here.
00:53:17Looked up one point like he was lining up a stomp.
00:53:20He gets the duck out of there and connected with his own move, the crossroads.
00:53:24And Seth now incredibly frustrated and forlorn in the ring, questioning,
00:53:30what the hell do I have to do to finally get a win against this guy?
00:53:36Keep the pedal to the metal.
00:53:38Keep the pressure on.
00:53:42Is that Seth Rollins starting to believe it's just not his destiny to be the leader,
00:53:47to be number one?
00:53:48Is he always going to be in second place?
00:54:04Rollins heading up to the top rope.
00:54:06He takes about freakish aerial ability!
00:54:13Oh, he misses his roads.
00:54:16Moves out of harm's way.
00:54:17Seth misses wildly.
00:54:18Cody top rope.
00:54:19Oh!
00:54:20Top rope Cody cutter.
00:54:21What a heavy landing!
00:54:22Rollins moves out of harm's way.
00:54:24Seth will hit a pedigree on Cody.
00:54:26And now Rollins with a stomp to Cody Rhodes.
00:54:30Cody made a mistake.
00:54:32Rollins capitalized.
00:54:33Oh, and Cody kicked out.
00:54:36Now Rollins has got to be wondering,
00:54:38what the hell do I need to do to put Cody away?
00:54:41From disbelief to despondency for Seth freaking Rollins,
00:54:52two of his biggest shots landed one after the other,
00:54:57and still no.
00:54:59Rollins arguing with the official Sean Bennett.
00:55:03Thought it was a slow count.
00:55:04Cody beat the count.
00:55:06Now Rollins trying to figure out what he's got to do.
00:55:09Seth is bugging out now.
00:55:11His eyes bulging out of his head.
00:55:14It's like he's living in a dream world.
00:55:29He's looking like a man possessed her,
00:55:31and I'm not quite sure what's going through his mind.
00:55:41The gift that Cody gave to Seth at the WrestleMania 40,
00:55:50when Seth assisted Cody in climbing to the pinnacle of this industry
00:55:55and becoming the WWE Champion.
00:55:58And how ironic it would be if Seth Rollins would use that gift
00:56:01to finally slay his demon,
00:56:03to exercise his demon of Cody Rhodes,
00:56:06but he thinks twice about it,
00:56:07and it may cost him.
00:56:09Cody with a kick.
00:56:10It would have been a disqualification.
00:56:11The referee would have seen it.
00:56:13Oh, God.
00:56:14Cody, Connor.
00:56:16Rhodes.
00:56:18Crossroads.
00:56:20Cover.
00:56:21One, two, three, four.
00:56:23Oh, my goodness.
00:56:24I thought Rhodes won it.
00:56:26The lightest and the latest of kickouts.
00:56:30Seth Rollins almost beat himself with that distraction.
00:56:36Holding the Rolex watch,
00:56:38allowing Cody Rhodes to kill a miss.
00:56:42And then follow it up with a crossroads,
00:56:44while both men have now connected with two of their heaviest shots
00:56:47back-to-back.
00:56:49And their opponent,
00:56:50their fellow world champ,
00:56:52has kicked out.
00:56:53And now, Wade,
00:56:54is Cody starting to question himself,
00:56:56perhaps?
00:56:59Well, Cody historically knows he can get the job done.
00:57:02He has done this against Seth before.
00:57:05He knows he's got to dig deeper
00:57:07than against 99% of opponents.
00:57:11The question is,
00:57:12what else is in your playbook, Cody?
00:57:14And how quickly can you execute it?
00:57:19Cody going up to the top rope.
00:57:20Rollins trying to make it back to his feet.
00:57:22And he does.
00:57:23And he causes Cody to lose his balance.
00:57:26God, so perfect was that from Seth Rollins.
00:57:29A light tap on the back of the knee was all it took
00:57:31to collapse Cody.
00:57:34A shot at the right spot.
00:57:36Now, Cody hung up, locked in,
00:57:38and Seth Rollins takes advantage of a defenseless Cody.
00:57:45Rollins right back into the fight.
00:57:47But the official warning him,
00:57:50he's got a count of five,
00:57:51or could be disqualified.
00:57:52Seth's got to be careful here.
00:57:54His world turns too black
00:57:56if he does get disqualified.
00:57:58And again, trying to lock back into the fight.
00:58:01Shut out the noise.
00:58:04Cody Rhodes looks like a dead body in the corner.
00:58:06All that blood rushing to his head.
00:58:08You guarantee his faculties aren't there right now.
00:58:10The body is in agony.
00:58:11And if Seth can drop the hammer here,
00:58:14he has a victory in sight.
00:58:16Well, Rollins got something on his mind.
00:58:18Looking across the ring to Cody Rhodes,
00:58:20he's just trying to somehow get back into the fight.
00:58:22Rollins now from the top rope.
00:58:24Rollins perched.
00:58:30Rollins.
00:58:30Oh, my goodness.
00:58:32Coast to coast.
00:58:33Rollins.
00:58:35Coast to coast what you've never seen before.
00:58:38Seth, you madman.
00:58:40And that could turn the tables in Rollins' favor.
00:58:44Cover on Rose.
00:58:45And Cody somehow kicked out again.
00:58:48Oh, Seth went for broke.
00:58:50He hurt himself in the process.
00:58:52I think he's messed up that left arm slash shoulder.
00:58:55Take another look at this.
00:58:56It was the landing of Seth.
00:58:58It did a real number on Cody Rhodes.
00:59:00But I think the left arm of Seth
00:59:03has damaged on that landing.
00:59:04It could be elbow.
00:59:05Seth's in a bad way here.
00:59:07And Cody Rhodes, can he take advantage?
00:59:10Rollins couldn't put Cody away with that coast to coast.
00:59:13And Rhodes now has a chance.
00:59:16And the doubt again, creeping into the mind of Rollins.
00:59:19Tricks like that that you've never pulled out before
00:59:22that risk your own body in the process.
00:59:24And now shaking out that left arm.
00:59:26Trying to get a little feeling back in there.
00:59:28It's not what you want this deep into a match
00:59:31against your mortal enemy.
00:59:34Against a man who could ruin your entire future
00:59:36in this industry.
00:59:38Cody Rhodes in trouble now on top
00:59:42of the top turnbuckle.
00:59:44Let's face it, both men are in big trouble
00:59:46at this point in the match.
00:59:47I don't care who's leading the charge.
00:59:50Both men are in a really bad way.
00:59:52And still shaking up that left arm
00:59:54is Seth Rollins and struggling gingerly
00:59:57to climb the turnbuckles.
00:59:59But there can be no let-up.
01:00:02If you want to be the leader,
01:00:04if you want to be the best,
01:00:05now is the time to dig deeper
01:00:07than you ever have done before.
01:00:09And that's what Cody's doing.
01:00:10Cody with the right hand,
01:00:11knocks Rollins off the ropes.
01:00:14Seth could barely brace on that landing.
01:00:16That arm is so bad.
01:00:20Seth up to the top rope now.
01:00:22Surprising Cody there.
01:00:26How are you doing, Seth?
01:00:31Oh my goodness!
01:00:33Rollins!
01:00:34Spanish flow!
01:00:35And now Seth!
01:00:38Down goes Rhodes!
01:00:40Cover!
01:00:40For the win!
01:00:43Cody again!
01:00:44Oh my God!
01:00:49I mean, what's worse for Seth Rollins
01:00:51at this point?
01:00:51The physical agony that he is clearly in
01:00:54or the mental agony
01:00:56that Cody's refusal to die
01:00:59is putting Seth through.
01:01:01Cody is somehow still in this fight
01:01:13after the abuse that Rollins
01:01:15has handed him
01:01:16over the past number of minutes.
01:01:19Rollins clearly favoring
01:01:21that left arm wave.
01:01:22Yeah, it's in a bad way.
01:01:23I don't know what damage
01:01:24has been done.
01:01:25It's the elbow, the shoulder,
01:01:26the tricep.
01:01:27It just isn't working properly.
01:01:29And it's been ever since
01:01:30he went coast to coast
01:01:31in a suicide fashion.
01:01:34And Rollins staring down at Cody
01:01:36crawling across the ring
01:01:39on his knees.
01:01:43Rollins has Cody in position.
01:01:46Cody's inadvertently crawled
01:01:47right into the danger zone
01:01:49exactly where...
01:01:50Oh, no!
01:01:50He went to the second rope.
01:01:51He took too much time
01:01:52and it allowed Rhodes
01:01:53to get back in it.
01:01:54Well, Cody may have been playing
01:01:55a little possum there,
01:01:57dragging his carcass
01:01:58over to the corner
01:01:59where Seth was laying.
01:02:02Seth is in a really,
01:02:04really bad way.
01:02:05I cannot stress this enough.
01:02:06That left arm...
01:02:07There was no letter
01:02:13from Cody Rhodes,
01:02:14nor should there be
01:02:15at this level.
01:02:17How badly do you want it?
01:02:18Well, you're getting
01:02:19your answer now.
01:02:20Cody with...
01:02:21He's got Seth hooked.
01:02:23Boltman up on the top rope.
01:02:24Cody Rhodes!
01:02:27Cover for the win!
01:02:29Shoots the half!
01:02:30Hooks the leg!
01:02:32Rollins is still in it!
01:02:34Oh, God!
01:02:38A crossroads
01:02:39off the top rope
01:02:40after all this damage.
01:02:45This was the end.
01:02:46This was the end of the match.
01:02:48This was good night.
01:02:49Goodbye, Vision.
01:02:51It all comes crumbling down
01:02:53for Seth Rollins.
01:02:55I don't know
01:02:56if this was instinct or what.
01:02:58His brain can't be working,
01:02:59but somehow
01:03:00Seth's future in this game
01:03:03lives on
01:03:04thanks to that
01:03:05incredible kick-out.
01:03:07A massive avalanche
01:03:08crossroads
01:03:09could not put Rollins away.
01:03:12And this fight continues
01:03:14for the Crown Jewel Championship.
01:03:17Just both men are spent.
01:03:21I mean, the referee
01:03:23close to calling this one
01:03:24off to protect both men,
01:03:26but
01:03:26the consequences
01:03:28are too great.
01:03:29We need a winner.
01:03:31Yeah, these two
01:03:31are not going to give up, Wade.
01:03:32You're going to have to
01:03:33drag him out of the ring.
01:03:37Seth is just a broken man
01:03:39in there,
01:03:40physically and mentally.
01:03:45And Cody taking advantage.
01:03:49Point in a match
01:03:50where you need to leave
01:03:51humanity at the door
01:03:53if you really want to be
01:03:54the top dog.
01:04:00Seth looking like
01:04:01the one-armed bandit here,
01:04:02but still valiantly
01:04:03throwing bombs
01:04:05the way of the face
01:04:06of Cody Rhodes.
01:04:06Well, let's not forget
01:04:07the amount of punishment
01:04:08Cody has suffered as well.
01:04:15Still fighting.
01:04:16Here's the issue.
01:04:17Seth couldn't block
01:04:17any of those shots.
01:04:18He was throwing with his right.
01:04:19He couldn't block
01:04:20with his left.
01:04:22Rollins
01:04:22looked like he was
01:04:23going for a stomp.
01:04:25And now it's Cody Rhodes
01:04:26delivering the kicks
01:04:26to Rollins.
01:04:27Again,
01:04:28Seth is fighting
01:04:29one-handed here.
01:04:31And it's all
01:04:31Cody Rhodes now.
01:04:35Crossroads,
01:04:36and Rollins able
01:04:37to counter.
01:04:38Kick again
01:04:39to the midsection,
01:04:40and Cody now
01:04:41looking for a pedigree.
01:04:44Rollins escapes,
01:04:44and he just grabbed
01:04:47that Rolex watch.
01:04:49Cody has no idea.
01:04:50Neither does the official.
01:04:52Referee blindsided
01:04:53for now.
01:04:55Oh,
01:04:55kick by Rollins
01:04:56and the official
01:04:57locked down.
01:04:58Cody with an opportunity.
01:05:00Rollins used the watch
01:05:01to knock out Rhodes.
01:05:04The referee's
01:05:04winded in the corner
01:05:06after that
01:05:06inadvertent collision.
01:05:08And Seth Rollins
01:05:09tied it perfectly.
01:05:11Seth Rollins
01:05:12delivered the death blow
01:05:16to Rhodes
01:05:16with the Rolex watch
01:05:17that Cody gifted him.
01:05:20And now Cody Rhodes
01:05:22with no clue
01:05:23where he's at.
01:05:24Barely moving.
01:05:26Rollins
01:05:27with a stomp.
01:05:30Apparently
01:05:30one's not going to do it.
01:05:32Seth knows
01:05:32how tough Cody is.
01:05:34Seth tried this before.
01:05:36It didn't work.
01:05:37It needs something extra.
01:05:40And now Seth
01:05:41perched on the top rope.
01:05:43Cody Rhodes
01:05:43coming to.
01:05:44Rollins has got Rhodes
01:05:45where he wants him.
01:05:46Seth Rollins
01:05:47from the second rope
01:05:53with another stomp
01:05:54to a helpless Cody.
01:05:58Seth Rollins
01:06:00falls into the cover.
01:06:01One, two, three.
01:06:03And his exercise
01:06:04can be defeated.
01:06:09Here is your winner.
01:06:11The 2025 men's
01:06:14crown jewel
01:06:16champion
01:06:17Seth
01:06:19freaking
01:06:20Rollins.
01:06:23The way the frustration
01:06:24built
01:06:25throughout this matchup
01:06:26for Seth Rollins
01:06:27he became desperate.
01:06:29He couldn't put Cody Rhodes away.
01:06:32And at the end
01:06:32of the day
01:06:33he
01:06:34grabbed the Rolex watch.
01:06:37He delivered
01:06:37a knockout blow
01:06:39to Cody
01:06:39which set up
01:06:40two stomps
01:06:41to earn
01:06:42Seth Rollins
01:06:43the victory
01:06:44in his first career win
01:06:46over the American
01:06:47Nightmare.
01:06:48I don't know if
01:06:49Seth Rollins
01:06:50is in ecstasy
01:06:51right now
01:06:52mentally speaking.
01:06:53about the look
01:06:55on his face
01:06:56maybe he is
01:06:57or if it's just
01:06:58the relief
01:06:59of years
01:07:00of his Achilles heel
01:07:02Cody Rhodes
01:07:03having a 3-0
01:07:05advantage over it.
01:07:07This is the moment
01:07:07I've been set up
01:07:08for his entire chances
01:07:10with that
01:07:11coast-to-coast
01:07:12suicide style
01:07:13Spanish flies
01:07:15attended to.
01:07:16Cody was equal
01:07:17to all of it though.
01:07:18Cody just kept
01:07:19kicking out.
01:07:20Just kept
01:07:20coming back
01:07:21and he kept
01:07:22surviving
01:07:23and then
01:07:24Cody Rhodes
01:07:24from the top rope
01:07:25with an avalanche
01:07:26crossroads
01:07:27which we thought
01:07:28was the end
01:07:28of this wave.
01:07:29Yeah,
01:07:30looked like it was
01:07:31and any normal
01:07:32competitor
01:07:33it would have been
01:07:34but this is
01:07:34Seth Rollins
01:07:35on a promise
01:07:37on a mission
01:07:38tonight
01:07:39with everything
01:07:40in Seth's world
01:07:42on the line.
01:07:43This was the moment
01:07:43he grabbed that
01:07:44Rolex watch
01:07:45and behind the
01:07:46referee's back
01:07:46and got winded
01:07:47in this incident
01:07:48here.
01:07:49A chance
01:07:51to take
01:07:52a cheap shot
01:07:53at the jaw
01:07:54of Cody Rhodes
01:07:55cold cocking Cody
01:07:57and following up
01:07:58with first
01:07:58a regular stomp
01:07:59and then a super stomp
01:08:01giving
01:08:03Seth freaking Rollins
01:08:05finally
01:08:06a victory
01:08:07over Cody Rhodes.
01:08:10And Wade,
01:08:11how the landscape
01:08:12has changed.
01:08:14A couple of years ago
01:08:16it was Seth Rollins
01:08:17who helped Cody Rhodes
01:08:19finish his story
01:08:21at Wrestlemania.
01:08:23Cody Rhodes
01:08:24was so thankful
01:08:25that he gifted
01:08:26Seth Rollins
01:08:27that Rolex watch.
01:08:29And tonight
01:08:29Rollins

01:08:59won't wait
01:08:59finds his vision
01:09:02clearly intact.
01:09:05It was all
01:09:06or nothing

01:09:08tonight

01:09:33with the way
01:09:33he accomplished
01:09:34the feat

01:09:37and Rollins
