00:00:0010,884 in attendance, and they are all super noisy.
00:00:10We're about to get louder.
00:00:12Are they ever?
00:00:30This next match is scheduled for one fall, making her ring the ring from San Fernando Chile.
00:00:51She is the 2025 Women's Brown Jewel and the Women's World Champion, Stephanie Bacare!
00:01:05Arguably the hottest star in the biz right now, La Primera, Stephanie Bacare.
00:01:11The practitioner of the Devil's Kiss that you just can't miss.
00:01:16Bacare and Roxanne Perez, next.
00:01:21As good a run as anybody has had recently, Wade, Stephanie Bacare.
00:01:46Yeah, has anybody conquered our galaxy in professional wrestling faster than this woman?
00:01:54Historically speaking, and in the process captivating the entire planet with every victory and every championship she acquires, Stephanie Bacare is on an all-timer rock.
00:02:07What a 12 months for this woman, who just keeps getting better.
00:02:16WWE Universe has fallen in love with her, has given her such respect as she has earned it, with that in her hands.
00:02:26The scariest part about Stephanie Bacare is we haven't gone close to the limit quite yet.
00:02:32We don't know what she is capable of.
00:02:35We don't know her ceiling.
00:02:37Stephanie Bacare has won nine of her last ten matches and the only other one was a non-contest.
00:02:50You have to go all the way back to mid-June in a fatal four-way for her last loss.
00:02:59Of course, winning the vacant Women's World Championship at Wrestle Palooza in Indy back on September 20th in a thriller against EO Sky.

00:03:390
00:03:41And her opponent, being accompanied by Roxanne Rodriguez, from Lorena Tuchson, representing
00:03:50the Judgment Day, Roxanne Perez!
00:04:01Coming off a win against Lyra Valkeria last week on Raw's Roxanne Perez.
00:04:11A night we have already had with new World Tag Team Champions in AJ Styles and Dragon Lee.
00:04:40Two Intercontinental Championship matches as well.
00:04:45Come on!
00:04:50Paulie!
00:04:51Where you been?
00:04:52Been waiting for you.
00:04:53It's been like 45 minutes.
00:04:55Oh, you're a funny guy.
00:04:56Am I?
00:04:56Yeah.
00:04:57You're not gonna believe this.
00:04:58I just had to have production change of graphic.
00:05:02Well, poor you.
00:05:03You ought to have a graphic change.
00:05:05Graphic.
00:05:05A graphic change.
00:05:06Yeah.
00:05:06Do you understand what kind of week I've had?
00:05:08Do you understand what kind of night I had?
00:05:10But this graphic, understand, pertains to you especially.
00:05:14Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed had to come off the graphic for the battle royal.
00:05:19Why?
00:05:22Because Bronson Reed and Braun Breaker are officially out of the battle royal.
00:05:29Really?
00:05:30Yeah, really.
00:05:31Let me guess.
00:05:31You'd like me to put Bronson Reed and Braun Breaker back in the battle royal.
00:05:35Yeah.
00:05:36Yeah.
00:05:36I would.
00:05:37Would you really?
00:05:37Yeah.
00:05:38Tell you what.
00:05:39What?
00:05:40Say please.
00:05:50Mr. Pierce.
00:05:52Sir.
00:05:53If you would please take it into your kind consideration.
00:05:57Well, tell me more.
00:05:58To put Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed back into the battle royal.
00:06:07Please.
00:06:11That wasn't so hard, was it?
00:06:12No.
00:06:13In fact, it was pleasurable.
00:06:14And I enjoy doing business with you, sir.
00:06:16I know you do.
00:06:17Tell you what.
00:06:18Yes, sir.
00:06:19No.
00:06:20No.
00:06:20This day is getting better and better all the time.
00:06:30Hi, Becky.
00:06:39I understand how you must feel.
00:06:43I had no choice in the matter.
00:06:49Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed conspired against Seth because of his injured shoulder.
00:06:56I, I got down on my hands and my knees and I got in between your husband and Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed.
00:07:07I put myself in physical jeopardy until that physical jeopardy became a reality and I had no choice.
00:07:17But you are the breadwinner in your family now.
00:07:21What's the number one rule about feeding our children?
00:07:24Survive the day.
00:07:27I survived last week.
00:07:31Unfortunately, your husband did not.
00:07:34And I'm sorry about that.
00:07:37But there is a vision that includes Becky Lynch.
00:07:44And then it's win-win for you.
00:07:47You can have a hot husband at home.
00:07:52And an adorable oracle on the road.
00:07:56No need for an answer right now.
00:08:00Think about it.
00:08:03Listen to me.
00:08:05You penguin-faced prick.
00:08:09Your snake oil salesman crap doesn't work on me, okay?
00:08:13I don't like you.
00:08:14I have never liked you.
00:08:16I have never trusted you.
00:08:19But neither did my husband.
00:08:20But unlike the people whose coattails you rode on, he didn't need you.
00:08:28He used you.
00:08:29He knew that you were going to turn on him.
00:08:32He's actually a little surprised it took you so long.
00:08:35But don't worry.
00:08:38When he comes back, when he comes back, he's not going to hurt you.
00:08:43You're nothing to him, okay?
00:08:46And you'll be nothing without him.
00:08:50But all the people that you love in this business, all the people that you surround yourself with, whatever new nepo baby you decide to attach yourself to it, he's going to kill them.
00:09:03But he's not going to kill you.
00:09:05But he's not going to kill you, bro.
00:09:06You're just going to wish that he died.
00:09:08Remember, we found out earlier tonight that Becky's husband, Seth Rollins, had surgery.
00:09:20He's out injured and has been stripped.
00:09:24World Heavyweight Championship vacated.
00:09:25So coming up in just moments, we will have a number one contender's battle royal.
00:09:31The winner of this main event tonight will face CM Punk for the vacant championship at Saturday night's main event, November 1st in Utah.
00:09:41That's going to be one of the hottest tickets around Saturday night's main event, Punk against the winner of tonight's battle royal.
00:09:48Did you know 25 victories wait?
00:09:51Stephanie Bacare is the winningest superstar in WWE this year.
00:09:57The women's world champion is in the ring, ready for action, as she will be taking on Roxanne Perez.
00:10:07The bell rings.
00:10:08Stephanie wins.
00:10:09Will she do so tonight against the spunky young thing, Roxanne Perez?
00:10:18Stephanie Bacare, Roxanne Perez.
00:10:21Stephanie Bacare recently was backstage doing an interview with Jackie Redman.
00:10:25Judgment Day interrupted.
00:10:26Roxanne berated Bacare saying she should have gotten the vacant title match.
00:10:30It should be her in this position to win crown jewel.
00:10:34And Bacare said, stop crying and do something about it.
00:10:37Well, now is the chance for Roxanne Perez to do something about it.
00:10:42I really like the attitude from Roxanne Perez there on a couple of things.
00:10:46Number one, the implication is Bacare has stolen the spotlight from this young prodigy, Roxanne Perez.
00:10:53Because Roxanne has been grafting hard, battling away, having more matches than any woman this year, albeit not more wins.
00:11:02But she has now been leapfrogged in the pecking order by Bacare, and that should never sit well with anybody who has high expectations on their career like Roxanne Perez does.
00:11:12Well, there is no denying the activity of Roxanne Perez.
00:11:16There is also no denying the results put forth by Stephanie Bacare.
00:11:21But to your point on Roxanne Perez and her work rate, this match ties Perez for the most active WWE superstar this year.
00:11:31This is her 41st televised match.
00:11:34She's tied with L.A. Knight.
00:11:37Yeah.
00:11:38And we are going to see L.A. Knight a little later on tonight.
00:11:42Every single week, these competitors seem to be in ring.
00:11:46Question is, can Roxanne Perez earn a massive victory tonight against Stephanie Bacare?
00:11:53Potentially augmenting her argument that she deserves a championship opportunity against the current champ.
00:12:00You can see Perez trying to power away, but Bacare able to utilize her legs, and Perez tripped up again, lateral press, and quick to their feet.
00:12:10It's a highly technical start from both women.
00:12:12You can see Perez not rushing into anything like she's prone to do at times, really feeling out.
00:12:20Stephanie Bacare trying to spot a weakness, which is something most women on the roster have tried, have ultimately failed at doing.
00:12:30That's part of the problem with Stephanie Bacare.
00:12:33She's so well-rounded, high-flying, technical skills, transition upon transition, power moves, too.
00:12:42The question is, how do you beat a woman who seemingly has it all?
00:12:45Oh, pinning combination with the bridge as well for Perez.
00:12:48Perez, and once again, right, so fluid.
00:12:52It's like dueling banjos here with these combinations.
00:12:56Well, we mentioned what's coming your way in Salt Lake City.
00:12:58That doubleheader is smacked down in Saturday night's main event, and we are going to have a big reveal coming up at the conclusion of tonight.
00:13:06The number one contender is Battle Royal for that World Heavyweight Championship.
00:13:09Who will face CM Punk tickets on sale via SeatGeek.
00:13:13What a weekend that is going to be in Salt Lake City.
00:13:17We're just 12 days away now.
00:13:19By the way, the priority pass available as well for that massive card.
00:13:25The power.
00:13:27The athleticism to nearly bridge out of that and then get to her feet.
00:13:32Bacare.
00:13:33Oh, packaging here.
00:13:35She could put her in position, but instead Perez fights back.
00:13:39Well, Roxanne Perez has tried a number of things.
00:13:44None of them have seemingly worked against Bacare.
00:13:47So let's go on the outside.
00:13:50Regroup.
00:13:52Speak to Raquel and see if we can figure out a plan B here.
00:13:55And Bacare doesn't have a problem with getting to the outside as well.
00:13:58She'll chase you down.
00:14:00There's no benefit to Bacare in allowing Roxanne on the outside to regroup.
00:14:05Look at this!
00:14:06Straight back on the attack.
00:14:07And once again, it's the technical prowess of La Primera.
00:14:13Yes, slap across the face.
00:14:15Yeah, I was going to say a slap across the face changes the tone of that, doesn't it, Wade?
00:14:20Not with a take-two.
00:14:24See Perez, how affected she was.
00:14:25Oh, it's your favorite, Joe Test.
00:14:27It's everybody's favorite.
00:14:29I blush when I see this one.
00:14:30No, you don't.
00:14:31Your blood pressure rises, but rolling out of it is Perez and locking up on that bottom rope as she couldn't get the devil's kiss engaged.
00:14:40Well, how smart was Roxanne Perez there who's now clinging onto the apron.
00:14:45Doing anything she can to avoid that devil's kiss.
00:14:49Oh, and behind the referee's back.
00:14:51Oh!
00:14:51A poke in the eye, maybe.
00:14:53Raquel Rodriguez with a sweeping roundhouse right hand.
00:14:59Your heart rate was spiking moments ago, Wade, as was the crowd here as the devil's kiss was just about engaged.
00:15:19But all of a sudden, Perez, with the help of Raquel Rodriguez, has turned things around.
00:15:24And Roxanne needed something, because she tried about 600 things against Vakur.
00:15:30Vakur had an answer for everything.
00:15:34When they have an answer for everything, you just go underhanded.
00:15:37It was a moment of brilliance from Roxanne Perez, and now potentially trying to snap the arm of Vakur,
00:15:43and lurking menacingly ever so close by once again.
00:15:47Is Raquel Rodriguez, referee, keeping a close eye on things as well?
00:15:51He might.
00:15:52Raquel Rodriguez not suddenly needs to be asked twice to get involved.
00:15:58Probably rather upset that it's not her in the ring right now.
00:16:02Tantalizingly close to the action, but now admiring the handiwork of Roxanne Perez.
00:16:10Slamming her down the back of the head and continually working on that left arm and hand.
00:16:16As her shin just driving down on that left wrist into the pin.
00:16:21Just a count of one.
00:16:23Well, the target is clearly now set, and that wrist of Stephanie Vakur showing some real wear and tear.
00:16:31Grimace on Vakur's face.
00:16:33And there should be no letter whatsoever from the prodigy Perez.
00:16:37This is what I find so impressive with Roxanne Perez for such a young superstar.
00:16:43How she acts like a veteran when she knows she has something she can target and weaken.
00:16:47That has been consistently now for many minutes, that left arm, and especially that forearm through wrist area of Stephanie's.
00:16:59It's a sign of a top superstar when they are relentless, when they spot a weakness.
00:17:05That's over committing now, and it's given La Primera a chance to get back into this match.
00:17:10Now Perez turns it right back around and gets right back on that left arm.
00:17:15This has been a real chess game at times.
00:17:17It's a chess game, but now thanks to that little intervention from Raquel, that Perez is winning.
00:17:24Snaps it, hooks the leg, and able to get that right shoulder up.
00:17:28The kick out by the women's world champion.
00:17:33How can somebody as young as Roxanne Perez be so mean, nasty, and vindictive?
00:17:40But that is what makes her so effective.
00:17:44Nothing saccharine sweet about this woman.
00:17:47You understand your skill level being a prodigy of how much she's worked,
00:17:50but to your point, the mental composure and energy she has.
00:17:53I love it.
00:17:58The young and feisty Roxanne Perez, who was recently berating the women's world champion,
00:18:05Stephanie Vicar, saying, it should be me in that position.
00:18:08I should be the one who fought for the vacant title.
00:18:11Well, now she gets her chance to prove it here against Vicar.
00:18:14She's been in control for many minutes, working on that left arm.
00:18:18Yeah, you often feel there's a natural order of things.
00:18:20Oh!
00:18:20People who join the roster after you should not be at the top of the ladder before you get there.
00:18:26Well, Perez has done a great job so far,
00:18:28but finally showing a bit of fight back in the other direction
00:18:31is Stephanie Vicar, who is being hampered by the fact that Roxanne has done a great job
00:18:37attacking the left arm of Vicar.
00:18:39And now looking to shrug it up is La Primera.
00:18:42Spinning kick, headbutt, and La Primera.
00:18:45Even as she grasps at that left arm,
00:18:48she is on a vicious rally of an attack.
00:18:51And you can see her still shaking out that left hand.
00:18:57And she comes in with the Meteora, the double knees,
00:19:00and then stomps right on the face of Perez.
00:19:02Yeah, this is an angry side of Stephanie Vicar.
00:19:06Very different to the one who started this match with a technical connection.
00:19:10Now with a dragon screw looking to shred the knee of Perez.
00:19:14Man, that corner dragon screw, when she puts it in, it has such effect.
00:19:21Oh, and now she gets a second chance at what everybody wants.
00:19:29How about a little devil's kiss?
00:19:32Smooch-a-roo, Stephanie!
00:19:43Well, that's what the people came for.
00:19:45Is it enough for the victory?
00:19:46Stephanie Vicar is ready to put this one to bed.
00:20:10Yeah, she was thinking SVP, and Perez has other ideas as she had it scouted.
00:20:16And again, right back to that left arm.
00:20:19What a smart move.
00:20:21A young superstar, but veteran ring awareness.
00:20:25So nice from Roxanne Perez there.
00:20:30Perez on the go and driving those knees down.
00:20:34What a huge win this will be!
00:20:36Oh, that will mention to make a statement here.
00:20:37No!
00:20:39Vicar survives it.
00:20:41Vicar survives it.
00:20:45Well, if Perez can pick up the pace here, you've got a defenseless Stephanie Vicar once again targeting a barrage of shots on that arm.
00:20:54And we're now looking for a cross-face.
00:20:57And Vicar in a desperate situation here.
00:21:02Still looking to win this thing.
00:21:04There is no quit whatsoever in Stephanie Vicar.
00:21:07Spinning kick and trying to put her in position.
00:21:10Looking for Pop Rocks instead.
00:21:11Here goes Vicar.
00:21:13Lines her up.
00:21:14Oh, and delivers!
00:21:156-1-9!
00:21:18She is one of our heroes, Rey Mysterio.
00:21:21She is feeling it now, isn't she?
00:21:25Don't take your eye off the ball!
00:21:27And that is exactly what happened with Raquel Rodriguez lingering out on the floor.
00:21:33One distract, one pounce there from Roxanne Perez.
00:21:37And back in the jaws of danger is Stephanie Vicar.
00:21:42What a performance this has been from Roxanne Perez.
00:21:46Aided and abetted by Big Mommy Cool on the outside.
00:21:49Looking for the double springboard.
00:21:50But instead, it goes south.
00:21:54God, that could have been a catastrophic landing had Raquel Rodriguez not been there to clean up the danger.
00:22:00But danger still lurks.
00:22:03The Dark Angel wants to fly!
00:22:06Cross body wipes him out.
00:22:09Raquel took the biggest part of it.
00:22:12Then Roxanne ducked out of the way, but immediately back on the offense.
00:22:16He's now looking for that!
00:22:19Angel Wings!
00:22:21Delivering big time into closing out!
00:22:25The offensive weaponry of Vicar!
00:22:27Here is your winner, Stephanie Vicar!
00:22:35Well, the legend just goes week by week.
00:22:40And Stephanie Vicar looks...
00:22:42Oh!
00:22:42Raquel Rodriguez.
00:22:44The judgment day always feels like they're going to have the last word.
00:22:49And that is exactly what they intend to do here.
00:22:52Well, Raquel...
00:22:52Now, this is...
00:22:53Come on!
00:22:54Raquel got flattened by Stephanie Vicar moments ago.
00:22:57That was after Raquel with it laid off.
00:22:59Well, Raquel is out of the way!
00:23:03Mount up!
00:23:05Nikki Bella!
00:23:06And Nikki Bella, who is a good friend behind the scenes of Stephanie Vicar, had seen it up,
00:23:12was not going to allow her good buddy to get dropped by these two,
00:23:15but now has put herself in danger.
00:23:18Oh!
00:23:19Bella!
00:23:20Nikki Bella comes to the aid.
00:23:22Oh, but it's a massive, massive big boot from Rodriguez.
00:23:28The best of intentions.
00:23:31And trying to do something about it was Vicar, but clearly beat up after that match.
00:23:36Stumbling on the top rope, and now fighting Hound for leather.
00:23:40With one of the most powerful women in the division.
00:23:45Stephanie Vicar.
00:23:46There is danger everywhere you look here.
00:23:48Vicar is limping.
00:23:50Roxanne Perez looking for a pound of flesh now.
00:23:52Oh, and a big right hand from Nikki Bella.
00:23:55What a messy ending to this.
00:23:58Match-up!
00:24:00Double dropkick!
00:24:01Just cleans up the ring!
00:24:03And sends the judgment day out!
00:24:06Well, Vicar better thank her lucky stars for the presence of mind of Nikki Bella for showing up here.
00:24:12Does that look bleak?
00:24:13Statement made by Stephanie Vicar and loyalty shown by her friend, Nikki Bella.
00:24:21And congratulations, by the way.
00:24:31We beat the judgment day.
00:24:33We're a hell of a team, but also I've still got some goals on my own, and I just don't know.
00:24:36When it really comes down to it, me and Bailey, we are different people.
00:24:39For example...
00:24:40Fire up!
00:24:41Woo!
00:24:42I will talk to you later.
00:24:42Hey, Adam.
00:24:43Yeah, and I'll talk to you later.
00:24:44I have an idea.
00:24:45Yeah.
00:24:46What's up?
00:24:46I did.
00:24:47I felt great.
00:24:48How do you feel?
00:24:49Because I haven't slept since last week when we won our big tag team match.
00:24:54I mean, it just felt so good.
00:24:56It did.
00:24:56It felt great.
00:24:57Anyway...
00:24:57It felt really great.
00:24:58And I have an idea.
00:24:59Let me talk first.
00:25:00I have an idea.
00:25:01It's more like a surprise, okay?
00:25:03Because I know your birthday's coming up, and I just thought I should do something really
00:25:06great for you, so...
00:25:08No, no, no, no.
00:25:08Do you know what would be really surprising?
00:25:09If you just told me exactly what you're gonna do right now.
00:25:12No, that wouldn't be a surprise if I do that.
00:25:15Now, would it?
00:25:16You have to wait, okay?
00:25:17Next week, though.
00:25:19Can you be patient?
00:25:20Next week.
00:25:20Not really.
00:25:20Yeah, let's wait till next week.
00:25:22Not really.
00:25:22All right, let's go.
00:25:23Woo!
00:25:23God!
00:25:24God!
00:25:27I really don't.
00:25:28Yeah, I don't know.
00:25:29What I think is we should go to his office and steal his shoes and leave him laying somewhere.
00:25:33Hi.
00:25:37Hi.
00:25:39I'm having a hard time understanding this.
00:25:42Okay.
00:25:42Okay.
00:25:43We came here with the World Heavyweight Championship tonight.
00:25:46Right.
00:25:47That was taken from us.
00:25:49Right.
00:25:49And now, we don't even have a spot in the Battle Royal for the World Heavyweight Championship that belongs to us.
00:25:56Okay.
00:25:56So please, help us out.
00:26:01I don't.
00:26:05There was this rookie in 2002.
00:26:08A rookie named Brock Lesnar.
00:26:12He could have eaten through the entire roster in his very first night.
00:26:16But he didn't.
00:26:17He listened to me.
00:26:18And five months later, he was up against The Rock, who he beat for the title.
00:26:25There was this best-in-the-world rebel in 2012 who was such a pain in the ass backstage that they were going to throw him out the door as champion after 100 days.
00:26:37But he listened to me, and he got 434 days out of that title reign because he listened to me.
00:26:44How many WrestleMania main events did the big dog Roman Reigns get?
00:26:49Who remembers the big dog?
00:26:50But I made him the Tribal Chief, and he listened to me, and everyone remembers the title reign of the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns.
00:27:01It's not just about who you can slaughter.
00:27:06It's about the backstage maneuverings and the politics that go along with it.
00:27:11You want to see the vision of the future of WWE?
00:27:16The two of you should just look in the mirror.
00:27:19That's the future of WWE.
00:27:21I got a lot to learn, huh?
00:27:27Me too.
00:27:29A lot of people are hurt, too.
00:27:32Me too.
00:27:37So the bronze have been denied participating in our number one contenders battle royal.
00:27:43But Dirty Dom's in, and AJ Styles is in as well, having just won a tag team.
00:27:51Championship tonight.
00:27:52Who will face CM Punk at Saturday night's main event in Utah?
00:27:57We're moments away from finding out.
00:28:00I'm standing by with Los Americanos and El Grande Americano.
00:28:25El Grande, props where props are due.
00:28:27How does it feel to have so many positive outings, not just here in WWE, but also AAA?
00:28:32Uy.
00:28:35Primero, tengo una pregunta, uy.
00:28:41¡Arriba en América!

00:29:38in tonight's number one contender's battle royal.
00:29:41How confident are you that you're going to walk out the winner?
00:29:47Esta noche, voy a eliminar a todos en a better royal, wey.
00:29:57Después, le voy a ganar a CM Punk, wey.
00:30:07Y finalmente, voy a llevar el campeonato a mi casa, wey.
00:30:16¡Amexico way!
00:30:18¡Aguemo!
00:30:22¡Vámonos chingones!
00:30:26Gracias, Americano and Los Americanos.
00:30:30Joe Wade back to you guys at ringside.
00:30:36Friday night SmackDown and Saturday night's main event are coming to Delta Center in Salt
00:30:41Lake City, Utah.
00:30:42It'll be Friday, October 31st and Saturday, November 1st.
00:30:45Individual event tickets available now via SeatGeek.
00:30:49And of course, so much to be determined when it comes to that card with what's in front of us at moments.
00:30:54I'm good.
00:30:58Yeah.
00:31:00Gracias.
00:31:01You have my bag out there.
00:31:04They will never beat me.
00:31:07No.
00:31:08But they couldn't.
00:31:09No.
00:31:10Take it.
00:31:11I agree.
00:31:12No, I mean, of course, I'm not gonna stand back here and just let two sore losers jump you.
00:31:16You know, can I just say that I'm really proud of you?
00:31:19I mean, you and I have only been friends for a few months, but in those few months, you have taken this division by storm.
00:31:24I mean, you truly have taken this division to the next level.
00:31:27There's no one like you, Stephanie.
00:31:29And now you're champion.
00:31:31So, you know, being a champion and being your friend, I just want to let you know that that puts a big target on your back.
00:31:38You know, as champion, everything changes.
00:31:41So I just want you to be cautious because anyone can take you out.
00:31:46And I wish back when I was champ that someone would guide me when I was in your position.
00:31:51Well, I owe you one.
00:31:55Oh, well, thank you.
00:31:56Well, you know, funny you say that because now I think I just made two enemies.
00:32:00So I will probably be taking you up on that sooner than later.
00:32:04Bonita, you have my bag.
00:32:07I have yours.
00:32:08Oh, thank you.
00:32:10Gracias.
00:32:41We have eating babies now.
00:32:48Man always a spectacle.
00:33:02It's packed out arena.
00:33:04Packed out arena eating in unison. I
00:33:10Would have lost him that baby just high-fived him
00:33:14Baby does not appreciate the moment he or she just had so I'm not good at telling this gender of babies
00:33:24Look at the eat Joe
00:33:27Get on the table. I have only had five expressions today typically you eat fresh only seven
00:33:34Oh

00:33:58Jay
00:34:00First James been to the top climbs the mountain at WrestleMania
00:34:05But it's been this road to get back to the World Heavyweight Championship that has shown us a different side of Jay
00:34:10Tonight would be a major step forward
00:34:12You know the career mark for Jimmy one of the greatest tag team champions ever but no singles title in his long career
00:34:18Big one for the Usos tonight here of course it was a big night for the Usos actually
00:34:28Last night with many on the WWE roster as they were
00:34:34Enjoying the 49ers defeating the Falcons look at pumpkin the mix there as well
00:34:38Yeah, look at the return a big
00:34:40Yeah, look at the return a big George Kittle one of our biggest fans here in WWE
00:34:44We love him to Bailey was there
00:34:46Oh, she's about as big a 49ers fan as there is
00:34:48Everybody root not Christian McCaffrey as he went for 200 total yards and the WWE roster was out in force
00:34:56Why didn't we get the invite Joe Test?
00:34:58They lost your number wave
00:34:59We're not in the cool club apparently
00:35:00I would have loved doing none of that

00:35:04World Heavyweight Championship

00:40:44The man who claims that he set the foundation for legendary
00:40:50Claims we have proof there is but evidence sepia tone fill man's legacy dates back over a
00:40:57Century there is over a century of domination from el grande americano and the rest of the americanos
00:41:06I need to show you more newsreels
00:41:09Fake newsreels
00:41:11I trust you at all joe test, but I do trust the brilliance of grande americano and what a moment it would be
00:41:18He punches his ticket for that showdown with cn punk to become the new world heavyweight champion
00:41:26That's saturday night's main event. Yeah, you want a moment. This is always a moment right here
00:41:31Now there's a luchador my man
00:41:48Oh, and is that swaggy? Well, that is a luchador they got his jaw rocked a little earlier tonight
00:41:55By one bulgarian brute
00:41:58And that bulgarian brute is now prowling around the ring menacingly
00:42:02He got dropped by penta post-match
00:42:07Yeah, it was a springboard tornado
00:42:09dbt that was the last thing we saw in the ring, but rusev did land a massive
00:42:16Right hand on benton in the midst of the intercontinental championship match
00:42:21Where dirty dom mysterio was able to retain
00:42:24Retain with yet another low blow against rusev
00:42:29Right now dirty doll i'm watching in the ring
00:42:31He's staying very close to his sometime buddies
00:42:34In the judgment day who must be furious that they themselves were relieved of tag gold earlier tonight
00:42:40Oh
00:42:42Oh
00:42:56Remember he said to cn plunk about going after the world heavyweight championship. I am what is
00:43:01So now la knight can be called the business of the business. Oh, yeah
00:43:07Yeah, another catchphrase that just rolls off the tongue. I like that that is this of the business says la night
00:43:14That is a teacher waiting to happen and I am buying the first one as soon as it goes on sale
00:43:23All right, I think that is our entire field banjo test isn't it great
00:43:27Look at this roster of contenders to see who will face cm punk world heavyweight championship number one contender battle royals
00:43:37Oh
00:43:55And the target the prize the man has arrived
00:43:59Cm punk who of course earned the world heavyweight championship this summer before the cash in by seth robins
00:44:15Cm punk who's in position to regain it
00:44:19We are just 12 days away from saturday night's main event
00:44:24In salt lake city
00:44:27Where cm punk will fight for what is now the vacant world heavyweight championship
00:44:33Against the winner of this battle royal
00:44:37A unique situation we have the number one contender we actually need two due to that vacancy we heard about earlier tonight
00:44:44And cm punk presumably out here tonight to
00:44:47Scout the competition a couple of weeks ahead of saturday night's main event and now
00:44:54Perhaps heading our way
00:45:11What a scene here in sacramento well, you can take a seat here if you like punk we've even got a headset and it looks
00:45:18Going in
00:45:19Punk is going to join us on commentary
00:45:22From the voice of the voiceless to the voice of the desk here on raw welcome aboard cm punk
00:45:28This is going to mess up my hair this headset
00:45:30The hair looks amazing by the way you've been on a hair streak my man
00:45:34Oh, they are underway here
00:45:35We're not wasting time, huh?
00:45:37No, they aren't the battle royal to determine who will be up against you punk
00:45:41Oh, and look at this the big man right in the middle of the ring right away
00:45:45Look at he's climbing everyone down right now
00:45:49Throwing clubbing blows at one another
00:45:52Breaking down in a hurry
00:45:53Otis and I
00:45:54Oh, and Otis gets the best of them with a close line
00:45:57Pong presumably you're out here tonight to scout who you are going to be facing at saturday night's main event in a little under two weeks time
00:46:04I am a boy scout and I am here to scout and there's a lot of big meaty men in there
00:46:09Let me ask you this right off the bat pong of course, there's a lot of people who
00:46:14You would perhaps want to avoid is there anyone in particular historically speaking who you do not want to be locking up with
00:46:21Inside a nice amount of that
00:46:23Listen i'm not gonna i'm not gonna play pickums and play favorites and do fantasy warfare
00:46:27Uh, I honestly think there's a ton of talent in that ring right now. I faced a lot of them
00:46:33I'm not a betting man, but my money is on la night
00:46:38I like that that man has some real kaworka and that would be a popular victor and a popular matchup in a couple of weeks time
00:46:44At saturday night's main event to decide oh wait oh
00:46:48Otis who is off to such a hot start and then rusev does the best to eliminate him
00:46:54Well, they've got some major history with one another rusev's got to be happy with that after he was irate
00:47:00Losing the intercontinental no no no no no i think everybody's got to be happy with that
00:47:03You know, he had to be my favorite in a battle royal. Oh, did you just see pump that boot on to zawa?
00:47:09Oh to zawa tried to stand up for otis but rusev
00:47:13Cleared him and now penta and rusev who met up earlier tonight at the heels of the intercontinental championship match
00:47:19Yeah, how mad is rusev got to be but he's got a chance to wipe the slate clean to win this battle royal and get an opportunity
00:47:27Yeah, with several people who've lost out on championships tonight and finn balor one of those who lost his tag championship in part to aj styles
00:47:36Who would take so much sweeter this evening if he can book his ticket to saturday night's main event and a clash a date with destiny
00:47:43With cm punk hey wait, you know what? I apologize. I'm gonna change my answer. I would like to avoid at all costs dominic mysterio
00:47:50Really? Yes, give me a reason why. Well, they call him dirty dom. Do you know why they call him dirty dom?
00:47:57Unclean doesn't wash his teeth
00:47:59Really? Yeah smelly. Oh locker room insight from cm punk
00:48:04You know, he's been dirty in the ring with recent title defenses as well
00:48:07We saw that again. We saw last week a penta with the timekeeper's hammer. We saw it again tonight with a low blow
00:48:13He said almost taken out of that
00:48:15Dragonly out on the apron. Oh, he's a dangerous compromise position
00:48:20And now up on the top rope look at the judgment day
00:48:24And he is eliminated a modicum of revenge against the man or one half of the men who took their tag team championships earlier tonight
00:48:34Meanwhile penta with that big kick to the back of rusev who is on the apron himself
00:48:40Let me just ask you very quickly as this herd is starting to thin out
00:48:44I know from your personality
00:48:46You really wanted vengeance on Seth Rollins
00:48:48You wanted to be the man to get thrown in and get back that world heavyweight championship
00:48:53How much does it rank on you that you will not be getting that chance?
00:48:56Well, listen, if you're gonna ask me if i'm sad that Seth's
00:49:00Dirty dom the guy you say you don't want to face he just eliminated rusev
00:49:05Penta in one clean move right off the apron
00:49:16Thrilled to have cm punk joining us ringside here on the call this world heavyweight champion
00:49:21Number one contenders battle royal the winner of this will face you punk in 12 days
00:49:26Chaotic matchup, but it always is in the back war even more so when the price is so great
00:49:33But let me throw that back to your punk before we were rudely interrupted the prospect of fighting Seth Rollins and dethrone him
00:49:39No longer there. How does that feel?
00:49:41Uh, is set really hurt listen fool me once you know shame on me fool me twice or whatever that it was saying is we're international so hopefully nobody's gonna hear me screw up all the colloquialism
00:49:52I don't believe for a second that says hurt. I can't I took my eyes off the prize for a split second at summer slam
00:49:59I had the title in my hand and he came waltzing down on crutches and cashed in on me. It was an incredible victory
00:50:05He'll get no sympathy for me. He's really committed if he's been stripped of the world heavyweight championship just to fool you once again
00:50:13I would never put anything past Seth freaking rollins that being said
00:50:17Grayson waller is sent to the outside for a moment and then re-enters
00:50:23And i'll tell you what right now the usos are cooking together in this one
00:50:28Every bit the greatest tag team of all time and what a boost that is to your chances in the battle world
00:50:35Like this will cohesion against the rest of the field. Yeah, but that's not going to work
00:50:39You can't both win the battle royal. Well, we'll deal with that problem when we get down to it
00:50:44But let's thin the hood out a little of our chances
00:50:48brandy americano with that uppercut as sheamus and our grande americano are going toe-to-toe
00:50:53Are we calling him grande or are we calling him chad gable? What are we doing?
00:50:57It's grande americano the luchador with the legacy we proved it wasn't chad gable
00:51:02The nipples are completely different fun guys studied them intensely, which which scares the hell out of me
00:51:08Well, he's a broadcast journalist you can learn something a nipple expert
00:51:14Takes his job seriously too seriously
00:51:17very seriously
00:51:18I got a special camera that can zoom in 10 000 megapixels. Well, listen
00:51:24Let me let me ask you two what's going to sell more tickets. Is it cm punk versus
00:51:29Sheamus cm punk versus aj styles for the vacant heavyweight championship the marquee starts with cm punk for many
00:51:37That's all that does just based on the reaction you get week in and week out and happen again in sacramento here tonight
00:51:43Well, those are a couple
00:51:45Well, it's going to be dirty dog who really sells the tickets just the women folk of salt lake city will be acting their droves tomorrow
00:51:57Tickets if dirty dom is going to be there
00:52:01I wish somebody would sell him some soap
00:52:03Number one contenders battle royal continues to fit out here in sacramento the winner
00:52:22Will face cm for the vacant world heavyweight championship
00:52:26This eye bar is a monster. He is a monster and he's on an offensive role right now fun
00:52:33Tag specialist when he really finds a new gear in singles competition at war on his own. Well, this could be something
00:52:41This could be a banger moment in a battle royal pump couldn't it be it it very well will be
00:52:48Look at this
00:52:49Just throwing soup bones two men in the center of the ring ibar and sheamus two men
00:52:54I would personally really want to avoid the barba you punk
00:52:58Both may be getting closer and closer. Oh, no way bad moves
00:53:03I'm not trying to avoid anybody lord james blears. Okay. I'm not seth rollins. I'm not gonna check it out
00:53:08I want the best and the best are here in this battle royal
00:53:13No, he's still in the apron. He's on the apron able to survive it huge massive humanity
00:53:18But crazy levels of movement from ivor that might not be enough again
00:53:23Big a from sheamus against ivor
00:53:28What are you kidding me just throw it over the oh come on
00:53:35How about that elimination i'm not mad about it no no
00:53:40Well, sheamus is looking rested and he is looking back to his best a former multiple-time world champion and talking about
00:53:48Multiple-time world champions were joined here at the desk by sam i'm way over here
00:53:53I don't know why i can't just join the two maybe it's because i'm not dressed up spiffy
00:53:56But my shirt is available on wwe shop.com
00:54:01What if i have to wrestle my old tag team partner kofi kingston
00:54:04Oh kofi kingston in a moment of trouble against fit balor can he survive that as a brandy americano is loading the mask
00:54:16The rest of the field have no idea whatsoever this is one way to drop them breaking the hamper house of both usos wins
00:54:25And now they're lining them up to send them out and man whatever tensions the usos have the second that battle rings just disappear
00:54:43And they click back into game mode
00:54:46As people get eliminated i keep thinking to myself well you know what i'm actually happy i don't have to wrestle brandy americano
00:54:52Boy i agree with you guys on assessing sheamus right now
00:54:57On a serious note i want to say i watched the tag team championship match earlier i think jd mcdonough
00:55:03Is a phenomenal talent i think he's exceptional he's somebody he's a dark horse in this he's somebody
00:55:08Who can take me to my limit i agree he was putting forth a great effort there aj styles and dragon lee of course the new winners
00:55:15The world tag team championships in their hands as styles is in trouble here
00:55:19I can't hear i can't hear if the crowd's chanting aj styles or aj's husband which is me
00:55:23The announcement day spin out well jd mcdonough is eliminated and now we're getting a little ireland on ireland crime
00:55:3510 beats
00:55:49What a sadist he could have just chucked them to the floor instead he wanted to pound on his chest 10 times
00:55:54Oh jd's gonna get something both judgment day of members are gonna look like kofi kingston
00:55:59Oh oh oh sheamus is in trouble wait a second oh and kofi gets rid of them well you called his name
00:56:06i was making a caved in chest joke
00:56:10well sheamus is now irate has been tafed out of this thing by two men who were already eliminated
00:56:17wait a second look at them they're still fighting all three of them are eliminated
00:56:20Altheada ringside all the referees trying to get some control here
00:56:23Dom is gone
00:56:26gone punk dom eliminates the refs are all distracted the ref didn't see that dom is out
00:56:35the ref missed it wait a second you gotta be kidding me no if the record was turned around
00:56:40dealing with the fight on the other side the reps were all on the other side dealing with the brawl
00:56:45if the refs don't see it you are not eliminated dirty dom is still in this thing that is brilliant
00:56:50because of what was happening with judgment and sheamus dom is still in the ring and they don't
00:56:55realize it punk can you believe what you just saw here as dirty dom should have been eliminated
00:57:10but nobody ruled him out listen when it comes to dirty dom i normally just can't believe what i
00:57:14just smelled but no that that's par for the course i mean everybody wants to make the correlation
00:57:19to eddie guerrero just because he's got the the the i don't know the mop on his head or the dead
00:57:25caterpillar above his lip well eddie guerrero was the father that dirty dom never had after that
00:57:33deadbeat ray mysterio ruined the childhood of the top superstar in wwe dirty dom who is closing in
00:57:42on a matchup with cn bonk for the vacant world heavyweight championship i'll tell you jimmy just
00:57:47saved his brother jay jay was in a tough spot jimmy just saved him huge mistake well what backup you have
00:57:54in this battle royal if you're alongside your own twin brother what i don't want is both of them to
00:58:02win and say they both won and put me in another triple threat because i hate triple threats i'm not
00:58:07wrestling twins okay i did that one time it might have actually been in san francisco uh it was a long
00:58:14time ago okay we'll have the details of that perhaps off air it sounds that's the after dark
00:58:19show potentially dubious anyway no further questions your honor and now kofi kingston is on an offensive
00:58:26surge against both usos as he lines up right hands against jay meanwhile dirty dom who with our eyes we
00:58:34saw he should have been eliminated but the refs were busy dealing with other matters he's trying to get the
00:58:39the best of aj styles and meanwhile it's jay uso raining down on kofi kingston i was going to say it
00:58:45is a big ass for any superstar who has already competed in a match tonight such as dirty dom such
00:58:51as aj styles to expect them to win this thing but getting closer and closer now is the intercontinental
00:58:58champ and one half of the world tag team champ dom can't win this now if he wins it's tainted he was
00:59:03eliminated both feet on the floor listen i know years and years ago we had this debate steinbrenner
00:59:09heenan we need instant replay well every match dom ever wins is tainted in some regards so why
00:59:16change things now why change the habit of a career
00:59:19continuing on here just under 11 000 in a jam-packed golden one center here in sacramento california
00:59:37monday night raw on netflix joe tessitore wade barrett thrilled to be joined ringside by cem punk who
00:59:43earned his way to fight for the vacant world heavyweight championship but he's finding out in
00:59:49front of us who will be his opponent in 12 days well six men left at this point it really is the usos
00:59:55have been working as a team throughout this thing as aj almost gets eliminated wow jimmy uso just saving
01:00:02his brother jay from elimination if they keep going that way one of those two is going to win this thing
01:00:07and head on to saturday night's main event but apparently the rest of this field has something
01:00:13to say about that including la night who's been quiet so far in this one but has managed to survive
01:00:19to the final six yeah he's still in it and if anybody's at a disadvantage right now it's got to be
01:00:24aj and dirty dom both had contests earlier in the night you know they're tired yeah battle rules always
01:00:31an endurance affair and these six have got to all be running on fumes at this point it's a great point
01:00:37of analysis considering the night that they both have kofi kingston looks to provide some offense
01:00:43here against aj styles aj styles who took gold earlier tonight yeah listen dragon leaf as an athlete
01:00:49as kofi gets unceremoniously dumped over the top rope on the apron battling with aj styles you know
01:00:55a guy like aj styles you don't want to be that athlete that warms up has a match and that cools down
01:01:03and then you got to warm up again but if anybody can do it oh it's the phenomenal one who just
01:01:08eliminated kofi kingston so creative digging deep into his veteran playbook is aj styles but he looks
01:01:16spent on the floor it's now la night with all of the kevorka are your loins tingling please tell me no
01:01:25please tell me no mine certainly are mine aren't well thankfully speaking of tingling loins what do
01:01:32you call the new tag team champions is it the tag team of aj lee that tickles my loins that's really
01:01:40good come up here with joys almost a bft he was looking for the bft but aj able to put him in position
01:01:49for a styles clash potentially no knight wiggles out of it this is just scrambling time fight tooth and
01:01:56nail oh look at this guy this guy's putting a submission hold on in a battle royal maybe i want
01:02:02him to win now oh left himself wide open six one nine six one nine oh whoa that is dangerous for jay
01:02:13usso jay playing it on for dear life here and one shot maybe two shots here from ellen i could drop
01:02:19jay usso yeah battle in sacramento and the yaz are winning yeah the yaz getting the best of it
01:02:33look at jay on the cliff's edge one of the two former world champs left in this match alongside aj
01:02:41styles and jay maybe about to drop oh jimmy helps him out again that is the second time jay
01:02:53usso who looks completely spent at this point blood is thicker than water but is blood more important
01:03:01than the heavyweight championship jimmy's made up his mind it is okay aj aj stalking
01:03:06with long distance and double super kicks and just that fatigue perhaps starting to kick in on aj
01:03:14it was just a beat too oh there he goes eliminated that's big that is huge so now cm punk you understand
01:03:24what's in front of you it is down to four oh the muscle the power of all right not quite enough to
01:03:31watch big big jim away oh knight big jim and knight wrapped up over the top rope what is jay doing
01:03:41his brother saved him twice
01:03:47well that's what roman reigns is trying to tell jay usso all along you have to be cut through
01:03:53eliminating his own brother but watch out for classy dumb and now dirty dumb has jay lined up oh but instead of a 6-1-9
01:04:05it's a jay usso victory
01:04:08ladies and gentlemen the winner of the battle royal main event jay
01:04:15like listen jay just won an opportunity to wrestle cm punk for the heavyweight championship but for my
01:04:24money the story is the brothers right here jimmy spent the entire battle royal saving jay and jay just
01:04:32dumped him over the top rope that man former champion himself he's cutthroat he's got what it takes i got my
01:04:39work cut out for me that is the matchup it is set but that is the big takeaway wade barrett two times
01:04:46jimmy came to the aid of jay in this battle royal but when it was on the line jay dumped jimmy onto the
01:04:54floor well that is exactly what roman reigns has been trying to implant in the mind of jay usso as an
01:05:01irate big jim yells at his twin brother who effectively stabbed him in the back in the closing moments of this
01:05:08match you need a killer instant if you want to be at the top he didn't stab anybody in the back that is
01:05:14the name of the game one man wins i don't care if it's 30 men 40 men 20 men whatever it is one person
01:05:21gets the shot punk let's go back and show everybody exactly what you guys are talking about this was the
01:05:27save by jimmy earlier when jay was on the apron nearly defeated and he regrets it right now i guarantee it
01:05:34jay was back to rights there he was practically eliminated saved by big jim and when big jim needed
01:05:42that brotherly favor repay and this was after eliminating aj styles a tussle on the ropes with la
01:05:50night jay usso saw his path of victory open up and despite dirty dom's attempt to ruin the jay usso
01:06:00party it was in fact main event jay usso who will presumably be main eventing saturday night's main
01:06:07event against the other number one contender that man in the background xiang pong and there it is
01:06:15and that is what said two men who know what it means to have had the world heavyweight championship
01:06:22those two men will now meet for it saturday night's main event in 12 days from salt lake
01:06:29city that is the hottest ticket around with those two and it just became more desired jay usso
01:06:38wins the number one contenders battle royal he will face cm punk for the world heavyweight championship how
01:06:47about that
01:06:51you
