Transcript
00:00:30We'll go outside and use my gun, and I will rise up.
00:00:38Break it out, break it down, break it down, break it down, have no chance, now it's gone, are you safe, are you safe?
00:00:46For the first time ever, WWE SmackDown emanates from the Far East.
00:01:02In the outskirts of Tokyo, Japan, 17,738 roaring SmackDown fans in attendance.
00:01:10As SmackDown makes history tonight, the Saitama Super Arena.
00:01:14And tonight, the WWE Championship Number One Contenders Tournament continues,
00:01:19with a berth at WrestleMania hanging in the balance, and another quarterfinals matchup.
00:01:23That's right, John Cena and Orlando Jock will have at it, in a Norway Number One Contenders Tournament quarterfinal tonight.
00:01:30And also, the winner of this match gets a free pass to the tournament finals.
00:01:35Rey Mysterio and Kurt Angle tonight, off the chain.
00:01:38And the reason for that, the double countout in last week's quarterfinal matchup between The Undertaker and Lene Ducre.
00:01:47But we're kicking things off with Latino Heat, Eddie Guerrero.
00:01:51Well, Cole, they got low riders here in Japan, what's the store?
00:01:56Obviously, they do, because there it is.
00:01:59Where the hell did they find an old-school Chevy Impala in Japan?
00:02:03That Eddie Guerrero, he just collects low rides, he's got them all over the place.
00:02:07And he had it shipped over.
00:02:09Shipped or full of?
00:02:10He was full of us.
00:02:11Shipped like in a boat, like a boat ship, not an airplane, like a professional.
00:02:17The following contest is scheduled for, watch for the protein ring.
00:02:20From El Paso, Texas, weighing in at 228 pounds, Eddie Guerrero.
00:02:30Eddie Guerrero got caught trying to fly-cheek and steal his way to victory in the number-one contenders tournament quarterfinals last week.
00:02:39Booker T advancing.
00:02:40But you think this crowd here loves Eddie Guerrero?
00:02:44Listen to this ovation.
00:02:46Over 17,000 strong.
00:02:49Breeding Eddie Guerrero, here on the outskirts of Tokyo.
00:02:53It's Latino heat in Japan, Cole.
00:02:55It's kind of like an oxymoron, right?
00:02:58Latino heat in Japan, really get it?
00:03:01Kanbanwa, everybody.
00:03:03What?
00:03:03Good evening.
00:03:05You know, this country's great, you, Cole.
00:03:07There's a lot of people on the list, there's actually no tipping in Japan.
00:03:10You're not allowed to tip, but I know you're a big, deadbeat tipper, so, you know, you get over great here.
00:03:14I got that passion.
00:03:14Really?
00:03:15Yeah.
00:03:15That's great.
00:03:17And from the land of the rising sun, weighing in at 250 pounds, Kenzo Suzuki.
00:03:33Well, it appears, Taz, Kenzo is not even liked here in his own country of Japan.
00:03:39Perhaps his self-professed love for America getting to him here outside of Tokyo.
00:03:44Well, uh, yeah, I guess, I don't know, he's holding his ear, so he, uh, they hit him.
00:03:51Well, that's great.
00:03:53No, Hiroko out here tonight with Kenzo Suzuki.
00:03:56She's preparing for her kimono match versus Tori Wilson later on here on SmackDown.
00:04:04People, these Japanese fans really do dislike Kenzo.
00:04:08Well, can you blame them?
00:04:09I mean, he runs around on SmackDown every week saying he loves America.
00:04:13He is sort of, uh, well, thrown into the face of his homeland of Japan.
00:04:18Mr. Holtz is here.
00:04:19Maybe he's got a little headache.
00:04:20Maybe he's got a, I don't know, maybe he was out at Roppongi drinking a little sake last night.
00:04:25You don't know.
00:04:25I just think Kenzo is, uh, shocked at the reaction.
00:04:30And it'll be any chance from this capacity crowd here at the Saitama Arena.
00:04:36And I'll tell you, Suzuki's flipping out.
00:04:41Look, look at him.
00:04:49So it's Eddie Guerrero, Kenzo Suzuki as we kick things off here on SmackDown.
00:04:54A contrast in styles in this matchup.
00:05:01Listen to this, the Kenzo sucks chance.
00:05:06I'll tell you, I thought Kenzo's gonna have the whole field advantage.
00:05:10Whoa!
00:05:10And Eddie Guerrero is high in cheating and stealing.
00:05:12Thumb to the eyes.
00:05:13You know, Kenzo Suzuki was the captain of the rugby team here back in the 1990s in Japan.
00:05:19Let them do a few huge upsets in the international tournament.
00:05:23Well, he's a rugby guy from Japan.
00:05:25That's an Australian sport.
00:05:27What my people tell me.
00:05:29That's another story.
00:05:29In the United Kingdom as well.
00:05:32Rugby is really, in Australia, it's called Australian Rules Football.
00:05:36Well, let's see.
00:05:37Now Suzuki pinpointing Eddie Guerrero.
00:05:38Oh, here comes Guerrero.
00:05:40Eddie Guerrero, a lot to prove here tonight.
00:05:41Got caught by Booker T lying and cheating and stealing last week.
00:05:45Big clothesline by Kenzo Suzuki.
00:05:49I'll tell you what.
00:05:50I think maybe that the Japanese fans here should be proud of their man, of their native son, Kenzo Suzuki.
00:05:56He's doing a very good job against the former WWE Champion, Eddie Guerrero.
00:06:00Proud of what?
00:06:01Choking a man blatantly in the center of the ring?
00:06:04Well, I guess you got a good point.
00:06:05You shouldn't really choke a guy when he's down.
00:06:07But if you want to win, look at this though.
00:06:09Oh, knee right to the sternum of Eddie Guerrero.
00:06:11Here's the cover.
00:06:12Hook of the leg by Kenzo in a kickout.
00:06:14Taz, you've wrestled many times in your career here in Japan.
00:06:18And as you notice from these SmackDown fans here tonight, the audience can be a bit different
00:06:22than from what we're used to in the States.
00:06:24Well, that's true.
00:06:25You know, I mean, fans in the United States and in the rest of the world,
00:06:29usually very loud and into it and having a great time.
00:06:32And in Japan, they're a little bit more respectful and quiet, except for right now.
00:06:35They're looking on Eddie Guerrero here like he's from Tokyo.
00:06:38Must hijack his nut.
00:06:39And Kenzo, pull of the hair, bringing Eddie Guerrero down to the mat.
00:06:43And Kenzo continues now working on the pressure point of Eddie Guerrero.
00:06:47Hey, maybe they don't hate Suzuki so much.
00:06:51Maybe they just like Eddie that a little bit more.
00:06:53Hey, Eddie Guerrero is an international superstar.
00:06:56He is loved all over the world.
00:06:57Okay, well, Eddie Guerrero comes out here in a low ride.
00:07:00How come Suzuki don't get to roll out here like a Toyota Camry or something like that?
00:07:03I mean, it's a Japanese vehicle, right?
00:07:05Or maybe like a Hyundai or something?
00:07:06And Eddie with the elbows to the midsection of some kind of a Nissan Maxima or a Nissan Maxima.
00:07:10Oh, like a Nissan Sentra or maybe a Datsun.
00:07:12Remember the Datsun?
00:07:13Yeah, I remember the Datsuns.
00:07:151984 wants their car back.
00:07:16Eddie Guerrero with a big right knocks Kenzo down.
00:07:19And Latino Heat getting all fired up here as we kick off SmackDown for the first time ever from Tokyo.
00:07:25I don't know what you think I meant for long skinny dog, the hot dog dog.
00:07:27You know what I mean?
00:07:27Whoa!
00:07:28Big back body drop.
00:07:29Eddie Guerrero in control of Kenzo Suzuki on a night where we have two more quarterfinals matchups
00:07:34in the number one contenders tournament.
00:07:37There's one.
00:07:38There's two to three amigos.
00:07:39I might be seeing the third one here.
00:07:41It would actually be San Amigos here in Japan.
00:07:43Oh.
00:07:44Hi, hi, hi.
00:07:45Hi, I mean, yes, yes, hi, yes.
00:07:47And look at Eddie, the big old grin on his face, feeding off this exhilarated SmackDown crowd here tonight.
00:07:56Well, Eddie going to the, as they say, the proverbial high-risk district.
00:08:01Didn't work, though.
00:08:04Whoa.
00:08:06Suzuki, he's a little whacked out.
00:08:08Kenzo Suzuki to the second rope.
00:08:10Eddie could be in trouble.
00:08:10But a headbutt and another one right into the shoulder of Kenzo Suzuki.
00:08:15Knocking Kenzo on the second rope.
00:08:16Eddie Guerrero.
00:08:17And it's going to go from Fox Splash.
00:08:19Connecting.
00:08:20Cover.
00:08:20Hooks the leg.
00:08:21Eddie Guerrero.
00:08:22From out of the way.
00:08:24Picks up the win.
00:08:26Here is your winner, Eddie Guerrero.
00:08:31I don't know what kind of reptiles they have in this country.
00:08:34I mean, I don't know what kind of frogs if they jump.
00:08:37I don't know if they have hopping frogs or leaping lizards.
00:08:41I'll tell you what, that was a hellish frog break.
00:08:43Well, for the record, frogs are amphibians.
00:08:46And no one does the frogs fast best.
00:08:48They also grease.
00:08:49Eddie Guerrero.
00:08:51Surprising Kenzo Suzuki.
00:08:53And picking up the win.
00:08:55Latino Heat kicking us off here tonight on SmackDown.
00:08:59Listen up, guys.
00:09:03This is a very big night for all three of us.
00:09:07My road to main eventing my third straight Wrestlemania begins right here tonight.
00:09:14When I make Rey Mysterio tap in this tournament match.
00:09:17And I will.
00:09:18I just wish someone here would have softened him up last week when I asked him to.
00:09:23Look, I'm so sorry.
00:09:24No excuses.
00:09:25Nonetheless, when I beat Rey Mysterio tonight, I'm going straight to the finals at No Way Out, baby.
00:09:34And thanks to my boys, you guys made sure there wasn't a winner in the Undertaker match.
00:09:39Which means I don't have a semi-final match.
00:09:41I'm going straight to the finals.
00:09:43You guys make me proud.
00:09:44I love you guys.
00:09:46Look, Angle.
00:09:47What we did last week, that was nothing.
00:09:50I'm sick of every time Undertaker's name being mentioned around here.
00:09:55All these punks bowing down.
00:09:58When Luther reigns, he don't bow down to nobody.
00:10:01You're damn right.
00:10:02Hell.
00:10:03Even that Looney Tune Heidenreich.
00:10:05He got all whacked out when he's seen them caskets.
00:10:08I mean, he's already whacked out.
00:10:09What am I saying?
00:10:10Wacko.
00:10:11Look, Angle.
00:10:12I've had my throat cut ear to ear.
00:10:16I've been shot.
00:10:18I've been stabbed in a prison riot.
00:10:20I was locked down 23 hours a day, seven days a week for five calendars.
00:10:27Five calendars, Angle.
00:10:30I've had so much blood on me, you couldn't even tell what color my skin was.
00:10:35I've stared death in the eyes more times than I care to remember.
00:10:42So when it comes to The Undertaker, I ain't scared of no caskets.
00:10:48And I damn sure ain't scared of no dead man.
00:10:58Now that's the intensity I want.
00:11:02That's the intensity that's gonna bring home the gold tonight.
00:11:06You guys are gonna go out there and you're gonna win the WWE Tag Team Championships from the Bashems.
00:11:12You got it?
00:11:13Now let's go do it.
00:11:14Damn right.
00:11:15That's right.
00:11:16You're damn right.
00:11:17Let's roll, Jindrak.
00:11:18And now, the WWE Smack of the Night is brought to you by Electric Shave.
00:11:28For smooth skin, get Electric Shave pre-shave.
00:11:31Get blade close.
00:11:33Electric smooth.
00:11:35Quarterfinals matchup in the eight-man tournament to determine the number one contender.
00:11:38Oh, look at this.
00:11:39Oh.
00:11:40Angle's crunching.
00:11:41Referee's counting.
00:11:42He's up to seven.
00:11:42Undertaker's gonna break the count here.
00:11:44Wait a minute.
00:11:45Luthor Reigns has got The Undertaker's leg.
00:11:48The referee called for the bell.
00:11:49Double count out.
00:11:50Luthor Reigns and Jindrak battle for the tag team.
00:11:57Titles next for the first time ever.
00:11:59SmackDown coming to you from Japan.
00:12:01A look at downtown Tokyo.
00:12:03And what a treat for SmackDown fans here tonight.
00:12:06A Komodo match between Tori Wilson and Hiroko.
00:12:11Yeah, the rules are pretty simple.
00:12:13The first lady, the first diva that gets disroled loses.
00:12:18You gotta kind of keep your, you know, your robe, your kimono on.
00:12:20You know, wear a kimono coat.
00:12:22Who do you want to win?
00:12:24Uh, I don't know.
00:12:25I, I kind of wonder what's going on with, uh, you know, uh, Hiroko.
00:12:30And you would.
00:12:31Tag team title match on the way.
00:12:34Following contest to schedule for one fall.
00:12:45And it is for the WWE Tag Team Championship.
00:12:49Introducing the challengers at a combined weight of 558 pounds.
00:12:55Luthor Reigns and Mark Jindrak.
00:12:58I heard John Angle say it earlier on.
00:13:00Thanks to my boys, I have a chance to go right to the finals of the number one contenders.
00:13:04You saw it a few moments ago, Taz.
00:13:07Reigns and Jindrak causing that double countout in the Undertaker-Renee Dupree quarterfinals matchup last week.
00:13:15And at a combined weight of 495 pounds, they are JBL's Secretaries of Defense and the WWE Tag Team Champions,
00:13:28Dog and Danny, the Bersham Brothers.
00:13:30But what about Luthor Reigns saying that, quote, I ain't scared of no dead man?
00:13:36Well, I'll tell you, Luthor Reigns, he's, he's been through some stuff, obviously, in prison.
00:13:42And, uh, listening to what Luthor had to say about his experiences in prison, I'll tell you what, it kind of makes you, you know,
00:13:49I knew he'd been through some stuff, quote, he used to have been saying that for weeks and weeks out here,
00:13:52but even Kurt Angle and Mark Jindrak was a little taken back, and so was I, man, some heavy stuff.
00:13:57Well, Reigns staring at Danny Basham, Jindrak, and Doug Basham.
00:14:01WWE Tag Team Titles are on the line.
00:14:06Luthor's fired up, he's talking trash, and, you know what, we can see, we can, you know,
00:14:11get new Tag Team Champions here on SmackDown right here in Japan.
00:14:16Well, boy, how things have changed over the past few weeks.
00:14:18Remember, just a couple of weeks ago, JBL's cabinet and Kurt Angle's boys were really working together.
00:14:24Well, they obviously don't like each other, as it's Jindrak starting things off with Doug Basham.
00:14:29Speaking of JBL and his cabinet, big night for JBL's chief of staff, Orlando Jordan,
00:14:34meets John Cena later on tonight, another quarterfinals matchup in that number one contender tournament.
00:14:39The winner of that match was the face, Booker T.
00:14:42Nice takedown by Doug Basham, right hands to Mark Jindrak.
00:14:45Doug Basham double-legging the daylights out of Mark Jindrak there.
00:14:50Now, if you listen here to the audience, the SmackDown fans here in Japan that how quiet they are,
00:14:55as we pointed out earlier, that's just a sign of respect, more or less.
00:14:59They're watching the match. Ooh!
00:15:01Luthor Reigns with a knee to the back and a big left hand by Jindrak,
00:15:04and here's the tag to the powerhouse of the team.
00:15:07The near 300-pound Luthor Reigns, and this man is borderline psychotic.
00:15:13Well, Jindrak, sorry, Luthor Reigns, both impressing Kurt Angle.
00:15:17He's got intense.
00:15:19I'll tell you, he opens up Kurt Angle's eyes.
00:15:21It's showing, Luthor's showing Kurt how intense he is.
00:15:23Well, Luthor Reigns talked about being locked down 23 hours a day for five years in prison,
00:15:29staring death in the eyes for the woods.
00:15:31Luthor Reigns now would like to win the tag team titles here tonight and talk about a turnaround in his life.
00:15:35Maybe he could get the job done here tonight.
00:15:38Face on Luthor.
00:15:40Kind of looks like you were here to give me any more of that Japanese beer here.
00:15:43You got all like crazy.
00:15:44And Luthor in control as he makes a tag to his partner Mark Jindrak.
00:15:50You should be happy being in Japan.
00:15:51Life expectancy here for men, 78 years.
00:15:55You're closing in on that.
00:15:56And look at Jindrak.
00:15:57Nice suplex.
00:15:58Delivered to Bastion, and it kept up by perhaps one of the best athletes on the SmackDown roster in Mark Jindrak.
00:16:03Yeah, well, Bastion was about that in JBL.
00:16:08Oh, look at this.
00:16:10What's up with that?
00:16:10I don't know.
00:16:11A little gyration.
00:16:13That was a little weird.
00:16:15My point was, I was trying to make, was that Orlando Jordan in the, you know, JBL's cabinet is known as the SmackDown's greatest athlete.
00:16:23And I'll tell you what, I agree.
00:16:24I think Orlando's a great athlete, but so is Jindrak.
00:16:26Everybody's a great athlete.
00:16:27But I'll tell you what, Orlando, I think, is the better athlete.
00:16:30Wow.
00:16:30Oh.
00:16:31Great suplex.
00:16:32Underhook, double underhook, suplex.
00:16:34Hook of the leg.
00:16:35Tag team titles on the line.
00:16:36And Danny Basham breaks up the three count.
00:16:38And Jindrak into the ring as well, knocking Basham out of the ring.
00:16:41And perhaps a double team here for Reigns and Jindrak.
00:16:43A full Nelson by Jindrak.
00:16:45And, oh, gotta watch him.
00:16:47Oh, wait a minute.
00:16:49Uh-oh, wait a minute.
00:16:53What the hell is this?
00:16:57Oh, my God.
00:16:59Look, The Undertaker staring at Reigns and Jindrak.
00:17:05And Luthor Reigns again staring death in the eyes.
00:17:08Oh, my God.
00:17:09Shipping Jindrak to The Undertaker as Reigns gets out of Dodge.
00:17:13Oh, man, oh, man.
00:17:15Oh, man, oh, man.
00:17:15Jindrak into the corner.
00:17:17Oh, my God.
00:17:19Sneak eyes from The Undertaker to Jindrak.
00:17:22Heads up, big boot.
00:17:23But I'll tell you what.
00:17:26The Deadman got his eyes set on that.
00:17:30Reigns down.
00:17:31Watch out.
00:17:32Oh.
00:17:32Jindrak's in trouble.
00:17:34Chokeslam.
00:17:35But Undertaker yet to take his eyes off the man who cost him that quarterfinals tournament matchup last week.
00:17:45Luthor Reigns.
00:17:46Undertaker will not forget that Luthor Reigns perhaps cost him a birth in the main event at WrestleMania.
00:17:56And Taz, Luthor Reigns claims he ain't scared of The Deadman.
00:18:04Well, we'll find out Luthor Reigns obviously got Undertaker's attention.
00:18:13WWE, welcome to Japan!

00:21:02A last man standing match
00:21:04A triple threat match
00:21:05And now a barbed wire steel cage match
00:21:08Barbed wire is what we do to cattle in Texas
00:21:11It's what you do with animals
00:21:13I'm gonna get hurt
00:21:15I'm probably gonna get cut to shreds in this stupid thing
00:21:18And it's not bad enough that I've got a 500 pound idiot

00:21:41I won't do something that drastic to Big Show
00:21:50Wait
00:21:51Isn't that
00:21:52Yes it is
00:21:54The same tranquilizer

00:21:59Except a little more powerful
00:22:01We're gonna shoot him
00:22:02We're gonna hurt him
00:22:03He's not gonna make no way out
00:22:05And I'm not gonna be in some barbaric barbed wire steel cage match

00:47:44That one was a hell of a match.
00:47:45But this one, this one should be a dandy.
00:47:48Kurt Angle, Rey Mysterio have at it tonight on SmackDown.
00:47:53And Hiroko claims she's been waiting a long time for this.
00:47:57Apparently, Kenzo has been too.
00:47:59Tori Wilson meets Hiroko in a Kimono match.
00:48:02Well, I think that Kenzo would love to see Hiroko do what she said she's going to do to Tori tonight.
00:48:07And that's Disrova.
00:48:08If she does, Hiroko would win.
00:48:10It's next.
00:48:11History of the making here tonight.
00:48:14SmackDown from Japan.
00:48:15Pachinko.
00:48:16Pachinko.
00:48:16It's huge.
00:48:17Pachinko's huge this country.
00:48:19You play Pachinko, right?
00:48:20Yeah, the fight doctor Ferdinand Pachinko.
00:48:22Oh, Pachinko.
00:48:23You know, the coin, you know.
00:48:27JBL, look.
00:48:28I'm sorry I lost the match for the tournament.
00:48:30That John Cena, he's a...
00:48:34Where's JBL at?
00:48:36Where's JBL?
00:48:37Where's JBL?
00:48:38JBL, son.
00:48:39Where's JBL?
00:48:40Where's JBL?
00:48:41What do you mean where's JBL at?
00:48:42Jimmy, he's not in the locker room.
00:48:43Don't look at me.
00:48:44You had it.
00:48:45Where's JBL?
00:48:46I left him right here.
00:48:47What do you mean you left him?
00:48:48We got to find him, man.
00:48:49Yes, we got to find him.
00:48:49You got to find him.
00:48:50Look, you guys go that way.
00:48:51Amy, stay right here.
00:48:52I'm going to go down here.
00:48:52All right, we'll check that out.
00:48:53You got to find JBL, man.
00:48:55Oh, my God.
00:48:56This is all my fault.
00:49:00How do you lose a six-foot-six WWE champion with a cowboy hat?
00:49:05Why are they playing in Orlando?
00:49:07He had a match.
00:49:08I don't know, man.
00:49:09He jumped onto the influence of a curtain.
00:49:11Drankal, I should've thought.
00:49:12Hopefully, he's trying to find a front-row seat for this.
00:49:15You're not kidding.
00:49:16Following contest is the Kimono match.
00:49:20Making her way to the ring, Tori Wilson.
00:49:24So, again, the rules for the Kimono match are simple.
00:49:26If you disrobe your opponent, you win the matchup.
00:49:29And I hope Tori doesn't point those chopsticks at anybody, because here in Japan, it's impolite
00:49:36to point your chopsticks at someone.
00:49:38Well, I think that's okay.
00:49:39If someone like Tori Wilson would point those chopsticks at somebody.
00:49:43But anyway, SmackDown to be sponsored by NBA Street V3.
00:49:48And EA Sports Big.
00:49:49Leave your mark with the trick stick.
00:49:51And by Tyler Perry's Diary of a Mad Black Woman, the movie.
00:49:54In theaters everywhere, February 25th.
00:49:56Okay, it's sponsored by Sprint.
00:49:58The Sprint PCS fair and flexible plan for families means the end of ugly overages.
00:50:11And making her way to the ring, Soroko!
00:50:17So, here comes Soroko.
00:50:18Hotel girl, Cole.
00:50:20Yeah, it sounds like she didn't get a huge ovation.
00:50:22So, this is a Kimono match.
00:50:25Again, you win when you disrobe your opponent.
00:50:28I don't know.
00:50:29You know, maybe here in this country, you know, they don't see beautiful blondes and blue-eyed
00:50:33women like Tori Wilson often.
00:50:35They see beautiful geisha women that look like Moroku.
00:50:39So, who do you think their favorite is?
00:50:42Let me guess.
00:50:44Tori.
00:50:45Well, that sign there just said, I love Moroku.
00:50:47And it was written in English.
00:50:49Come here.
00:50:50I don't know, I just think we're all gonna win out in this thing.
00:50:53This should be pretty cool.
00:50:54I mean, uh, you know, a Kimono match.
00:50:57You've never done one of these calls.
00:50:58Uh, not in a ring.
00:51:02Well, why don't you tell us?
00:51:04So, you want a Kimono.
00:51:06You're admitting to that.
00:51:07Uh, not in a ring.
00:51:09So, Tori and Hiroko said to go one-on-one in this Kimono match.
00:51:13Well, Tori wants to be a good sport.
00:51:15Yeah.
00:51:16Sportsmanship.
00:51:17Sports ladyship.
00:51:18You know, Hiroko has had a problem with Tori for a long time now
00:51:21because her husband, Kenzo.
00:51:23Oh, look at this.
00:51:24The old powder-of-the-eyes trick.
00:51:26Oh, maybe.
00:51:27Oh, no.
00:51:28It wasn't an old powder-of-the-eyes trick.
00:51:29Maybe it was salt.
00:51:30That's a tradition.
00:51:31They pull salt, but maybe it was flour.
00:51:33Flour of the eyes.
00:51:34Well, we know that Hiroko does not like Tori
00:51:36because her husband, Kenzo, is smitten with Tori Wilson.
00:51:39It's got the same white.
00:51:40I mean, Hiroko's got the white face.
00:51:42So, I wonder if it's the same white that, I don't know, she puts on her face.
00:51:45Yeah, this is fair.
00:51:46Choking Tori and kicking her around the ring.
00:51:48But I guess there's no rules.
00:51:50You just got to take the Kimono off and you win the thing.
00:51:52Yeah.
00:51:52Uh-oh, looks like a clothesline.
00:51:56What the hell?
00:51:56Oh, what the hell's Tori?
00:51:57Oh, Hiroko got like a red stockings.
00:52:00I think she had a little garter belt action going on there.
00:52:02Oh, Tori with a dropkick.
00:52:05Huh, garters in Kimono.
00:52:07Oh, and Hiroko pounced off the apron.
00:52:10Is it cold?
00:52:11Anyway, Tori in total control of Hiroko.
00:52:15She's got socks on, like little ankle tube socks with red.
00:52:19Looks like a...
00:52:20Oh, hey.
00:52:21All right.
00:52:23Whoa!
00:52:25All right, she knows.
00:52:27Hiroko close to winning here.
00:52:29Oh, and Tori driving Hiroko.
00:52:31Oh!
00:52:33Right across the upper pectoral region.
00:52:38This has been some matchup.
00:52:41What the hell is that?
00:52:42I guess she's taking after Tenzo.
00:52:43Oh!
00:52:43Whoa!
00:52:47Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:52:48Watch out, Tori.
00:52:49What the hell?
00:52:50He's got up like in a final...
00:52:51The old airplane spin.
00:52:54The old airplane spin.
00:52:54We've seen it all in this match.
00:52:56Whoa, whoa.
00:52:59Look at this.
00:53:01And we got a winner.
00:53:02Almost a winner.
00:53:03Look at this.
00:53:04Whoa!
00:53:05Now we have a winner.
00:53:08Tori Wilson.
00:53:12Here's your winner, Tori Wilson.
00:53:17Well, how embarrassed is Oroko?
00:53:19Hey, she said she's been waiting a long time for this matchup.
00:53:22Oh, my God.
00:53:25Embarrassed in our own country.
00:53:29And Tori's just laughing away.
00:53:32Tori Wilson wins the kimono match.
00:53:34Here at a unique episode of SmackDown for the first time ever from outside Tokyo, Japan.
00:53:40How do you think Suzuki feels?
00:53:41He kind of wanted to see Tori, uh...
00:53:43Wait a minute.
00:53:48I hope Tenzo is near a TV set.
00:53:50Yeah, I know, right?
00:53:53Well...
00:53:54It's, uh...
00:53:57Wow.
00:54:01History continues to be made here tonight.
00:54:12Oh, Tori was victorious in this kimono match, and, uh...
00:54:16Oroko was embarrassed, and I'm sure now...
00:54:19Suzuki...
00:54:20It's probably happened to go soon.
00:54:22Yeah, to see Tori Wilson this little man.
00:54:25What a treat for the SmackDown fans here tonight.
00:54:28In Tokyo, Japan.
00:54:30What the hell is this?
00:54:31What is this?
00:54:32Look.
00:54:34It's, uh...
00:54:35Oh, my God.
00:54:38It's Godzilla.
00:54:40JBL.
00:54:41The WWE Champion.
00:54:46What is JBL doing?
00:54:48Walk into the ring, uh...
00:54:50What is Godzilla?
00:54:51I don't know.
00:54:54Well, I mean, we know that JBL's up to influence in that tank a lot.
00:54:57You're talking, going on.
00:54:58But the champion is just staggering out here in the ring.
00:55:03What?
00:55:04It's delirious.
00:55:05I don't...
00:55:05What is he...
00:55:06I guess that tank like a lot of...
00:55:10Maybe it affected a little bit of water.
00:55:12Oh!
00:55:13Now what?
00:55:14What's...
00:55:15I ain't afraid of you.
00:55:19You nothing but a lizard on steroids.
00:55:22You're like Barry Barnes.
00:55:24I bet you play baseball.
00:55:26You're like Barry Barnes.
00:55:26I bet you play baseball.
00:55:28See, all these Japanese people, look at me.
00:55:32All these Japanese people, they scared of you.
00:55:37They run around with their cameras, and they're on the subway.
00:55:42They eat noodles.
00:55:46I ain't afraid of you.
00:55:47You're nothing but a Tyrannosaurus.
00:55:50You're a lizard.
00:55:51You're like Big Show.
00:55:53He's a dinosaur.
00:55:54His name's Barney.
00:55:56He eats pizza.
00:55:57You ate pizza.
00:56:02JBL stands for just beat a lizard.
00:56:05I ain't afraid...
00:56:06What are you looking at?
00:56:08What are you looking at?
00:56:10I ain't scared of you.
00:56:13I'm a WWE champion.
00:56:16Champion, obviously, under the influence of that tranquilizer, Dart.
00:56:22I'll beat you like I'll beat Big Show.
00:56:25I'm...
00:56:25I'm...
00:56:27WWE champion.
00:56:31Big Show is just like you.
00:56:33He weighs 490,000 pounds.
00:56:37He eats pizza.
00:56:40I ain't afraid of you.
00:56:42Quit looking at me.
00:56:44I'm telling you, dinosaur, I want to beat you up.
00:56:48He's delirious.
00:56:49Yeah, I don't think JBL even knows what the heck he's doing right now.
00:56:53Not himself.
00:56:54I'm going to do this just like I do Big Show.
00:56:56I slap you in the face, and you won't do nothing about it, see?
00:56:59You're afraid of me.
00:57:01You're afraid of me, and you're scared.
00:57:02Just like the Big Show, I'm going to slap him in the face, too,
00:57:05because I ain't scared of him none, either.
00:57:07I ain't scared of nobody.
00:57:08I'm going to slap him in the face, too, so fight me.
00:57:10I'm going to slap him in the face, too, so fight me.
00:57:12I'm going to slap him in the face, too, so fight me.
00:57:13It's embarrassing for the champion.
00:57:14Come on.
00:57:15Come on.
00:57:15Come on.
00:57:16Come on.
00:57:16Remember, he was inadvertently shot by that tranquilizer, Dart.
00:57:17I'm psyched, put up, you dudes.
00:57:32Dragon.
00:57:33I ain't afraid of you.
00:57:35Well, yeah, that's the Big Show.
00:57:39Oh, my.
00:57:43Things just got really bad.
00:57:46There's the 470-pound, 7-foot Big Show.
00:57:49The man JBL meets in the first-ever barbed wire steel cage match in 10 days
00:57:57and no way out.
00:58:01And the Big Show does not look to be smiling.
00:58:09God.
00:58:13I don't think the championship protects yourself here.
00:58:15Well, I don't know, but I know JBL will be in a better state of mind.
00:58:21I hope, and I'm sure he will be.
00:58:23Half no way out in Pittsburgh.
00:58:25That barbed wire steel cage match will just be championship.
00:58:29Yes, it's a Big Show, man.
00:58:32I don't know.
00:58:37I don't know.
00:58:39I don't know.
00:58:41I don't know.
00:58:41I don't know.
00:58:41I don't know.
00:58:41I don't know.
00:58:42I don't know.
00:58:43I don't know.
00:58:43I don't know.
00:58:44I don't know.
00:58:44I don't know.
00:58:45I don't know.
00:58:45I'll let you two dinosaurs talk.
00:58:49I don't, I'll, I'll leave now.
00:58:51Okay.
00:58:51I don't know what to say.
00:58:55I don't, I don't think anybody does.
00:58:57I mean, JBL is not in a condition to be out here.
00:59:00Should not be out here.
00:59:01I don't even think he realizes he's out here.
00:59:03He is out here.
00:59:06The champion's delirious.
00:59:11Big Show saying what's wrong with you, the champion.
00:59:13Wait a minute.
00:59:13Wait a minute.
00:59:18Wait a minute.
00:59:20What the hell is this?
00:59:22Oh!
00:59:22A clothesline from hell by JBL.
00:59:25Look out.
00:59:26And now who's, who's he calling for?
00:59:28I don't know, but he looks unaffected now by that tranquilizer thought.
00:59:32But here comes the cabinet and that cowboy boot to the skull.
00:59:36Well, Cole, was, was JBL affected by the thought or not?
00:59:41Doesn't look like he's affected by it right now.
00:59:44There's the Bashams and Orlando Jordan.
00:59:46This assault on the Big Show by JBL and his cabinet.
00:59:50Kind of seems like a trap to me, man.
00:59:55I'm telling you.
00:59:56Oh, my.
00:59:56That's just the way I see it.
00:59:58JBL with that steel chair in hand.
01:00:02Oh, my God.
01:00:03Oh, what?
01:00:04And Big Show just getting out of the way.
01:00:07Oh, knocking JBL off the apron.
01:00:10Now taking out the Bashams and Orlando Jordan, the seven-footer,
01:00:14taking out JBL's cabinet.
01:00:16Two for the price of one.
01:00:17Double chump slam.
01:00:18And a choke slam on the way.
01:00:24Look at the power for the cheapest stab.
01:00:27The power of the largest athlete in the world.
01:00:30I think JBL tried to set up the Big Show,
01:00:32but it didn't quite work out tonight the way the champion wanted it to.
01:00:38Well, if this was a setup, then it obviously backfired.
01:00:41For the first time ever, SmackDown coming to you from the outskirts of Tokyo, Japan,
01:00:55the Saitama Super Arena, history in the making, here tonight.
01:01:00Well, SmackDown presents WWE No Way Out, sponsored by Subway.
01:01:04No Way Out comes to you live in 10 days in the Mellon Arena of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
01:01:08and available on pay-per-view.
01:01:10Subway is what you want to eat when you want to eat fresh.
01:01:13Subway, eat fresh.
01:01:15And during the break, the Big Show talked about the first ever barbed wire steel cage match
01:01:20at No Way Out for the WWE Championship.
01:01:23You're going to be trapped with me.
01:01:29A seven-foot-tall, 500-pound giant!
01:01:40Do you know what I can do, Bradshaw?
01:01:44I can flip a car over.
01:01:47I can crush most men's skulls with my bare hands.
01:01:53And I can break your ribs without even busting a sweat.
01:02:03As far as being a giant goes,
01:02:07there's only one man in Japan
01:02:10that can relate to being a giant.
01:02:18And that's Aki Bono.
01:02:23Aki Bono.
01:02:28Sumo Grand Champion.
01:02:33Japan's equivalent
01:02:34to the Big Show.
01:02:42Aki Bono, stand up.
01:02:43Stand up.
01:02:44So you're a Grand Champion.
01:02:53And you know what?
01:02:57Come on in the ring.
01:02:59Because I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:02Oh, whoa!
01:03:04The Aki Bono chance from this Japanese crowd
01:03:08in 1993 Grand Sumo Champion
01:03:11is indeed huge.
01:03:13Let's see how huge he is next to the larger set.
01:03:18Oh, man.
01:03:20I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:22I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:23I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:24I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:25I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:26I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:27I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.

01:03:32I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:33I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:34I want to find out what a Grand Champion's made of.
01:03:35A show of respect for the big show, Hockey Bowman.
01:03:53I thought she wore the guy dance with that for a minute.
01:03:57Folks, we're ten days away from No Way Out on Pay Per View from the Mellon Arena
01:04:01in Pittsburgh, the theme song, Enemy, from Fozzie.
01:04:05I like Fozzie, yeah. Check out, go pick up, roll out for me. Available now.
01:04:09And, of course, I got an advanced copy, I know.
01:04:12And, of course, in No Way Out, the first ever barbed wire steel cage match
01:04:18for the WWE Championship.
01:04:21And I'll tell you, man, we saw earlier, JBL tried to set up the big show,
01:04:25didn't work, but I'll tell you, come no way out,
01:04:28Big Show, JBL, barbed wire steel cage match for WWE time.
01:04:32And just announced, Luther Reigns goes face-to-face with The Undertaker.
01:04:37Earlier tonight, Undertaker almost got a piece of Luther Reigns.
01:04:41I think Luther Reigns is living a fight.
01:04:43Luther Reigns just seems like he sweats the dead man.
01:04:46And next week on SmackDown from Cleveland, Ohio,
01:04:49an update on General Manager Theodore Long
01:04:51who's being deposed in Stanford, Connecticut,

01:04:56And also, next week from the Gundarin in Cleveland,
01:04:59a semi-final matchup in the tournament
01:05:02to crowd a new number one contender.
01:05:05That's right, John Cena book a team next week

01:08:23former wwe champion kurt engel as you saw the intensity in the eyes of kurt engel
01:08:35so much on the line in this quarterfinal matchup
01:08:38as we try to determine the number one contender for the wwe title
01:08:46and from san diego california weighing in at 175 pounds ray mysterio
01:08:57so mysterio's got the 6.9 cam so so is that like the international version
01:09:02this is for knocking yeah i think it records in pal
01:09:07pal it's tough it's that type of tape anyway
01:09:14so kurt angle and ray mysterio said to go 101 and i'll tell you what they did look i give a lot of
01:09:21credit to ray mysterio standing up to kurt angle moments ago saying enough of underestimating me
01:09:27curt just like everybody else does i'm going to give it my best shot here tonight in this quarterfinal
01:09:32matchup well i'm not surprised that ray mysterio bowed up to kurt angle one iota and mysterio's
01:09:39loaded with intestinal fortitude and he can go in that ring pound for pound quite possibly one of the
01:09:45the toughest competitors in all of the wwe
01:09:52you know core weather wins this match has a humongous advantage they go right to the finals
01:09:59that's big so it's mysterio and angle one-on-one let's set the scene for this tournament now john
01:10:04cena faces booker t in cleveland next week on smackdown in a semi-final matchup the winner of that match
01:10:10heads to no way out to face the winner of this match kurt angle or ray mysterio who lock up in
01:10:16the center of the ring and remember what's on the line here taz whoever wins the number one
01:10:20contenders tournament no way out will be in the main event at wrestlemania against the wwe champion
01:10:26and perhaps batista from raw will be involved as well in a triple threat matchup if batista decides
01:10:33to come to smackdown that remains to be seen but let's let's enjoy ray mysterio versus kurt angle
01:10:41and here's kurt angle working on that left arm of ray mysterio and talk about this tremendous
01:10:45athlete kurt angle if he can win this tournament he would headline wrestlemania for the third
01:10:50consecutive year kurt's got the past performances he can do it right now current angle really doing
01:10:57some damage to that arm now it's turned into an ammo hammer lock on ray mysterio so if you're
01:11:02current angle your strategy is to try to ground the high flyer mysterio shoulders down kick out
01:11:07obviously if you're ray mysterio you don't want to be here you don't want current angle on the
01:11:10mat with you you don't want current angle behind you he's the first ever olympic gold medalist in
01:11:16wwe history but elbowed out of that nice elbow to the jaw of current angle by mysterio
01:11:23angle intently watching his opponent ray mysterio in this matchup on what's been an historic smackdown
01:11:29tonight from the saitama super arena outside of tokyo japan wow how quick that duck under to that go
01:11:35behind by angle and now you see ray trying to hook that arm that left arm and now got nice
01:11:41power out like that arm ringer and a reversal by kurt angle on ray mysterio's arm we always talk about
01:11:47the quickness of ray mysterio but angle extremely quick in the ring as well absolutely oh big shoulder
01:11:52knocked down the strength advantage goes to angle in this matchup up over the top of ray mysterio
01:11:57there's the leapfrog by ray slides underneath the angle and now the quickness of mysterio with the
01:12:02lefts and rights mysterio whipped across the ring and a big high knee by kurt angle mysterio catches a
01:12:10breath in the corner that current angle has the size advantage and power advantage as you said but
01:12:16obviously ray mysterio has the quickness advantage and ray can strike from odd spots during a match
01:12:22he can nail you from from any direction in this match he's just so quick the man's an enigma he
01:12:28can do some amazing things with his body ray mysterio we saw the smile on the face of kurt angle moments
01:12:33ago the confidence building even he was in control ray mysterio kicked in the midsection into the side
01:12:39of that headlock quickness right there oh look at this head scissors yeah tilt the world head scissors
01:12:47by mysterio i think angle wanted to get a side stop here we go 619 look at this and kurt angle rolling out
01:12:54of the way ray mysterio almost caught him and angle says not right now mysterio says just a second away
01:13:03kurt angle saying none of that kurt angle just the way kurt looks at his opponent
01:13:08stares him down like dissects him mentally look at those eyes on angle just staring at ray just
01:13:14taking him apart with his eyes figuring out his next calculating move but mysterio don't sweat him
01:13:19mysterio doesn't fear kurt angle and i don't think i don't think ray should ray mysterio is a phenomenal
01:13:24phenomenal athlete and a great number that would be superstar look at what mysterio did a couple of
01:13:29weeks ago taz in the royal rumble matchup oh and look at that mysterio rolling the shoulder out

01:13:40takedown a moment ago by angle on ray and hanging on to that head this is an advantage for ray he
01:13:45wears a mask therefore there's no there's no sweat coming off his head so it's it's well it's kind of
01:13:50it's kind of hard to get off the headlock if you're encouraged oh shoulder knocked down by angle again
01:13:56and again quickly back into the headlock yeah that side headlock takedown so quick quick hips and quick
01:14:01feet is the key to a side headlock takedown and kurt angle so quick with his feet to throw his opponent

01:18:06suplex is continuing now to work on the back of mysterio
01:18:13and yet another suplex so i guess kurt sent something off that suplex where mysterio landed
01:18:18high and tight cover hooks the leg kicked out by mysterio i think what kurt angle sense was on that german
01:18:23earlier he knocked ray mysterio loopy why not go for it you should have seen when i did that to
01:18:29that dentist well he calls it toilet tea right oh and mysterio with a kick to the back of the leg

01:18:51you take that high flying arsenal away from ray mysterio absolutely absolutely and right now trying to
01:18:58just bend right mysterio enhance in half supine in his back there kurt angle is now a smart get to a
01:19:06vertical base to alleviate the pain elbows to the gut trying to battle out of this thing is mysterio

01:19:54to face the winner of the john cena bunker team matchup i don't think kurt's trying to put ray on his
