00:00:00Now.
00:00:04Forever.
00:00:09Together.
00:00:21We're here in Anaheim, California,
00:00:29where the countdown is on.
00:00:31In just five days,
00:00:32the World Heavyweight Championship will be on the line.
00:00:34And yet right here, right now,
00:00:36these fans at the Honda Center,
00:00:38they know there are twists, turns,
00:00:40and title come on to deal with.
00:00:42Charlotte and Alexa,
00:00:44the Twisted Queens are here.
00:00:47Flair and Bliss,
00:00:49the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
00:00:52They look to defend against Bayley and Lyra Valkyria tonight.
00:00:56And no fear, not here.
00:00:59The Dynamic Penta has a target on the IC title.
00:01:02He meets up with the big Bulgarian Rusev
00:01:05to decide who gets another shot at Dirty Dom.
00:01:08That's coming up in moments.
00:01:10As this is the kind of car that brings a sellout here.
00:01:16A massive crowd at the Honda Center has arrived for Raw.
00:01:23The Night Weed draw closer since Saturday night's main event.
00:01:30A week removed from so much more Monday madness.
00:01:34This is what went down then.
00:01:36The World Heavyweight Championship.
00:01:42We found out the news earlier tonight.
00:01:44Seth Rollins out the injured, needed surgery.
00:01:46So CM Punk has to have somebody to battle for the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:01:51The winner of this Battle Royal will be the man.
00:01:54Saturday night's main event.
00:01:56I am here to scout.
00:01:58They are underway here.
00:02:01They're not wasting time, huh?
00:02:03Look at the Judgment Day!
00:02:05The Usos are cooking together.
00:02:14Jimmy Uso just saving his brother Jay from elimination.
00:02:17They keep going that way.
00:02:18One of those two is gonna win this thing.
00:02:24Jimmy helps him out again.
00:02:30That's it.
00:02:31That is huge.
00:02:35Big Jim and Knife wrapped up over the top rope.
00:02:40His brother saved it twice!
00:02:46But watch out for Dojito!
00:02:53It's a Jay Uso victory!
00:02:58Jay Uso wins the number one contender's Battle Royal.
00:03:02He will face CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:03:13And here in Anaheim, California.
00:03:17Dead center in the ring.
00:03:19There it is.
00:03:20The World Heavyweight Championship.
00:03:23Vacated after the injury to Seth Rollins.
00:03:25And now two men who know what it is like to hold it.
00:03:28So desperate to get it back.
00:03:30Axten?!
00:03:31All the time!
00:03:36To get it back!
00:03:38Oza!
00:03:46Oza!
00:03:48Oza!
00:03:50Oza!
00:03:52Oza!
00:03:53Oza!
00:03:54We'll make the impact, I feel it again
00:03:59Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey the way
00:04:10Come zo
00:05:42But Wade, he will fight for the World Heavyweight Championship again.
00:05:48Yes, indeed, after Seth Rollins was forced to vacate the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:05:55We don't like that situation and we are going to fix that stat.
00:06:00We've got two number one contenders.
00:06:03We are looking at one of them right now.
00:06:05The other being C and Punt.
00:06:08They go head to head.
00:06:09This Saturday at Saturday night's main event, the winner gets the gold.
00:06:15The winner becomes the new World Heavyweight Champion.
00:06:19That is this Saturday, Saturday night's main event.
00:06:22It's an incredible weekend in Salt Lake City with SmackDown and Saturday night's main event.
00:06:27Tickets are available as well as the Priority Pass for the massive card Saturday night.
00:06:32And Jey Uso looks ready for Saturday night's main event right here, right now.
00:06:40And so does this audience.
00:06:41The Royal Rumble win put him in position for Mania.
00:07:02And now the Battle Royal a week ago has put him in position here for Saturday night's main event just five days away.
00:07:32And now the Battle Royal a week ago has put him in position for Mania.
00:08:02When you sell all 13,812 seats, you do just that, Wade.
00:08:20When you sell all 13,815 seats, you do just that, Wade.
00:08:23When you sell them all, you're gonna get home.
00:08:26When you sell them all, you're gonna do it.
00:08:35When you sell them all, you're gonna do it.
00:08:39Yeah.
00:08:40будем.
00:08:42Baaah.
00:08:42Let's get it.
00:08:44Let's get it.
00:08:48Let's get it.
00:08:48Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:08:55Hey, hey, hey.
00:09:18I said, welcome to Monday Night Raw.
00:09:40Got a lot of people in my ear these days, Uss.
00:09:45Got Roman in my ear.
00:09:48Got Jimmy in my ear.
00:09:52Everybody, Mama in my ear.
00:09:56But I'm going to tell you all this right now, Uss.
00:10:01Right now, I don't give a damn what they think about me.
00:10:09Yeah, because it's just me, Uss.
00:10:12It's just me for the number one contender.
00:10:14It's just me Saturday night.
00:10:16And it's just me going to be the new world heavyweight champion two times.
00:10:23Hey, y'all know the lingo.
00:10:25Four letters.
00:10:27One word.
00:10:27Four more ones, noangin', noangin', noangin'.
00:10:33Not the enemy was, but I don't give up.
00:10:36Oh, I've got a hand.
00:10:37We're going to be the new world-
00:10:39And it's just me for the new world.
00:10:40Yeah.
00:10:41We're going to be the new world-
00:10:42And this is me for the new world-
00:10:43And this is me for the new world-
00:10:45My eyes come to the sea
00:10:49Love my personality
00:10:53I know you're an angel
00:10:57I know you're a dream
00:11:01I can't believe you're a woman
00:11:03I'm afraid of you
00:11:05Love my personality
00:11:09Love my personality
00:11:13Of course it was CM Punk
00:11:19Who earned number one status himself
00:11:21With a triple threat win
00:11:23Over Jey Uso
00:11:25And LA Knight
00:11:29Always controversial
00:11:31Always captivating
00:11:33And perhaps this
00:11:35Coming Saturday
00:11:37We will be calling CM Punk
00:11:39World Heavyweight Champion
00:11:41If he can defeat
00:11:43Main Event Jey Uso
00:11:45At Saturday Night's Main Event
00:11:47Punk's birthday yesterday
00:11:49But that's the only present
00:11:51He wants and it won't be gifted
00:11:53He's gonna have to earn it on Saturday
00:11:55Against Jey
00:11:57For five minutes
00:11:59He had it this summer
00:12:01For five minutes
00:12:03He had it this summer
00:12:05For five minutes
00:12:07He had it this summer
00:12:09He got an insignificant
00:12:11But I have it this summer
00:12:15He's gonna have to earn it on Sunday
00:12:17I can't believe
00:12:19Instead of me
00:12:21I know you wouldn't want no play
00:12:23And don't you really want to play
00:12:53Both the personality gets a run back
00:13:03I apologize for stealing your stuff
00:13:20Four letters
00:13:22One word
00:13:24Punk
00:13:29I'm going to do my best not to get in your personal space tonight
00:13:36Because Saturday, that's all you're going to get
00:13:39Is me in your grill
00:13:41But before we get to Saturday
00:13:43Let's talk about tonight, right now
00:13:46I'm happy for you
00:13:48You're finally listening to you
00:13:52You're not listening to all the noise
00:13:54Jimmy, Roman
00:13:56It's no secret
00:13:58It's no secret, Anaheim, that me and Jay are friends
00:14:03Which makes it harder for me to lace them up against you
00:14:08I always try to put myself in my opponent's shoes
00:14:11But I've never been in your situation
00:14:14Because I've always listened to myself
00:14:18I follow my heart, I listen to my gut
00:14:22And I believe in myself
00:14:24Which is easy to do when you're winning
00:14:25It's a lot harder to do when you're losing
00:14:30Or when you're about to lose
00:14:33I had a lot of questions coming out here
00:14:41And your body language answers a lot of them for me
00:14:45Your actions last week answer a lot of questions for me
00:14:48I know you got what it takes
00:14:52I watched you throw your brother over the top rope
00:14:56Congratulations on winning the battle royal, by the way
00:15:04And ladies and gentlemen
00:15:04I don't mean to admonish you
00:15:06But you don't boo that
00:15:07It's well within the rules
00:15:09It's every man for himself
00:15:10Jay's just showing everybody, including me
00:15:14That he's got what it takes
00:15:18And if you're listening to you
00:15:26And you're not listening to anybody else
00:15:27I'm talking to you, Jay
00:15:29You got what it takes
00:15:32But how far
00:15:35Are you willing to go?
00:15:39I'm not asking
00:15:40Big Jim's brother
00:15:42I'm certainly not asking
00:15:43Little Roman
00:15:44I'm asking
00:15:47Main
00:15:48Event
00:15:50Jay
00:15:51Uso
00:15:52How far
00:15:53Are you willing to go?
00:15:57Because you're not the only one who needs
00:16:00To be champion again
00:16:02The small amount of time I held on to that title
00:16:07At SummerSlam after besting Gunther
00:16:09Was way too short
00:16:11I need to be champion
00:16:13Like I need air
00:16:14In my lungs
00:16:16And I know how far
00:16:24I'm willing to go
00:16:25But Saturday night
00:16:27Saturday night's main event
00:16:30Jay Uso vs CM Punk
00:16:32When you're face down on the mat
00:16:34After I've knocked out your grill
00:16:36And you look up
00:16:37And you look up
00:16:37And realize
00:16:38That you're in a situation
00:16:40You can't yeet yourself out of
00:16:43Look at me
00:16:45How far
00:16:47Are you willing to go?
00:16:49Let's go
00:17:13Punk
00:17:14Let's go
00:17:17I've been in deep waters before
00:17:21I know how to swim
00:17:22But you're going to do what you always do
00:17:25You're going to spin the block
00:17:27Have these people thinking
00:17:28You're the man to get behind, right?
00:17:31Yes
00:17:31That's what you do
00:17:33As soon as I do something right for me
00:17:36He's going to paint the picture
00:17:37Like I'm the bad guy
00:17:38Yes
00:17:39I know
00:17:41I know
00:17:42And guess what?
00:17:43Screw you, punk
00:17:44Yeah
00:17:46Yeah
00:17:47Because Saturday night
00:17:48I'll show you who the best in the world is
00:17:51Who's
00:17:51Four letters
00:17:52One word
00:17:53One word
00:17:54Well, it is set
00:18:01And we are just five days away
00:18:03Saturday night's main event
00:18:06As CM Punk asked the question
00:18:10How far are you willing to go?
00:18:14And Wade, I don't think there is any doubt
00:18:17That Jey Uso answered it with great clarity
00:18:22With the intensity
00:18:24Of just turning to him
00:18:26And simply saying
00:18:28Let's go, punk
00:18:30Let's go
00:18:31No limits whatsoever
00:18:33On the rage inside
00:18:36Jey Uso
00:18:37And his desire to reclaim gold
00:18:39But the same, of course
00:18:41Could be said for CM Punk
00:18:43Two men primed and ready for battle
00:18:46This Saturday at Saturday night's main event
00:18:49Glad you're with us here from Anaheim
00:18:52Sold out 13,812
00:18:54You just get the sense
00:18:55When you grasp gold the way these two have
00:18:57You're more desperate to regain it
00:19:00Now, as for our newest champions
00:19:02We had a thriller of a tag team classic last week
00:19:05Yeah, let's take you back to last week
00:19:08What a matchup it was
00:19:10This was war
00:19:11Tag gold on the line
00:19:12His judgment day defended against Dragon League
00:19:14And AJ Styles
00:19:16A massively entertaining
00:19:18Back and forth affair
00:19:19But it was the veteran AJ Styles
00:19:22Who connected first
00:19:23With a phenomenal forearm
00:19:25And then followed that up
00:19:27With a Styles clash
00:19:29As we crowned ourselves
00:19:31New world tag team champions
00:19:34Off the road from here
00:19:36In Sacramento, California
00:19:39Congrats to our new tag champs
00:19:41I know
00:19:45Guys, guys
00:19:48We got a problem
00:19:49We know
00:19:51We're just talking about Mickey Bella
00:19:53No, no, no, no
00:19:54I'm not talking about that
00:19:55I'm talking about a real problem
00:19:57Adam Pearce has some sort of vendetta against me
00:20:00And now Rusev and Penta
00:20:02Have a number one contenders match
00:20:03Well, maybe if you weren't such
00:20:08An habitual cheater
00:20:09I'd have a different outcome
00:20:11Um, that's heinous
00:20:12Because I've never cheated a day in my life
00:20:14Anyways
00:20:18Now I have to face the winner
00:20:19At Saturday night's main event
00:20:20So, what are we gonna do, guys?
00:20:22What are we gonna do?
00:20:24Are you serious?
00:20:25I can't
00:20:25Calm down
00:20:26Dom
00:20:27Me and Finn
00:20:29Have our plate full tonight
00:20:30Getting back to tie team titles
00:20:31Yeah
00:20:31You know the ones that
00:20:33You cost us
00:20:34So tonight, mate
00:20:35You're on your own
00:20:36Let's go
00:20:37Yeah
00:20:48I need your help
00:20:49Are you there?
00:20:50I don't
00:20:50I think I need some help
00:20:52Maybe I should go talk to them
00:20:52No
00:20:53Let them handle theirs
00:20:55And we will focus on ours
00:20:56Thanks
00:20:58Thanks
00:20:58And what they need to focus on
00:21:03Is this Hall of Famer
00:21:04Nikki Bella has arrived
00:21:06She went to helping hand a week ago
00:21:08To fight off Judgment Day
00:21:09Now Nikki Bella
00:21:11Has to bring everything she has
00:21:13Against the prodigy
00:21:13Bella
00:21:14Will be opposite
00:21:15Roxanne Perez
00:21:16I'mJack
00:21:17Glad «H attachment»
00:21:33All the way
00:21:34Handsome
00:21:35I can't
00:21:36I don't meidän
00:21:37Go
00:21:38I don't
00:21:39I can't
00:21:40I can't
00:21:40I can't
00:21:41I can't
00:21:41I can't
00:21:42I can't
00:21:42I can't
00:21:42I can
00:21:42I can't
00:21:43And I can't
00:21:43I can't
00:21:43I can't
00:21:44I can't
00:21:44I can't
00:21:44I can't
00:21:45The following is an Intercontinental Championship number one contenders match.
00:21:54Introducing first, from a Jotapec, Mariko, weighing in at 87 kilos, PENTA!
00:22:06I mean, how good is that?
00:22:08You want to define a fan favorite?
00:22:12PENTA against the fiercely determined Rusev.
00:22:14Intercontinental Championship number one contenders match next.
00:22:18Now, no matter where in the world we go, they just love this Luchador.
00:22:22And I'll say this, Jotapec, of course, Mexico is the home of this Luchador.
00:22:26And I'll say this, Jotapec, of course, Mexico is the home of Lucha Libre.
00:22:30Now, no matter where in the world we go, they just love this Luchador.
00:22:47And I'll say this, Jotapec, of course, Mexico is the home of Lucha Libre.
00:22:53But if Lucha Libre had a vacation home, I think it would be right here in California.
00:23:00Do you think they would have, like, a nice two-bedroom condo near the ocean just to get away from things?
00:23:06It would be right here.
00:23:08I think PENTA would get a giant mansion.
00:23:10I think so, too.
00:23:10Roll the red carpet out for that guy.
00:23:12It's great to ring entrance as there is.
00:23:19I mean, sometimes it just takes weeks, months, or even years for a superstar to connect with an audience.
00:23:29This was a day-one guy.
00:23:31The second he debuted on Raw, instantly he became a massive crowd favorite.
00:23:38And there is no sign of that slowing down.
00:23:41Just imagine what's going to happen if PENTA acquires some gold in the form of an Intercontinental Championship.
00:23:49Gets the opportunity to put himself in pole position up next against Rusev.
00:23:55We thought that was going to happen two weeks ago.
00:23:57He had his chance.
00:23:59He got outmaneuvered by a cunning and dastardly Intercontinental Championship.
00:24:04Adjective that you use.
00:24:06Some of the euphemisms and descriptives.
00:24:09Instead of just giving the reality of the situation.
00:24:13As we just heard from Judgment Day themselves.
00:24:15Habitual cheater.
00:24:16Habitual cheater.
00:24:17His own brethren saying that.
00:24:19That's just such a low-class way of saying it.
00:24:21Dom is a highly intelligent habitual cheater.
00:24:25Just adds a little layer of gloss.
00:24:28His opponent.
00:24:29From Bulgaria.
00:24:30Waking.
00:24:31For 270 pounds.
00:24:33Rusev.
00:24:34Rusev.
00:24:35With he a Gilles!
00:24:48His opponent.
00:24:49From Bulgaria.
00:24:51Waking.
00:24:52For 270 pounds.
00:24:55Rusev.
00:24:57Rusev!
00:25:28We're not far away from the famous pier.
00:25:30We're down here in Anaheim for what is a rockin' Monday Night Raw here on Netflix.
00:25:39WWE superfan and famed actor O'Shea Jackson is here among the sellout at the Honda Center.
00:25:52Thrilled to have him always.
00:25:53And wait, that is not Preston Northam!
00:25:55That's a LA Galaxy in attendance.
00:25:58The MLS team.
00:25:59What do LA Galaxy and Preston Northam have in common?
00:26:02I can't wait to hear this.
00:26:03David Beckham played for them both and they are both amazing teams.
00:26:07Welcome aboard LA Galaxy.
00:26:09Can't imagine how badly Rusev wants to get through Pensa here and get his hands on Dirty Dom
00:26:14after yet another IC title match loss because of a Dirty Dom low blow.
00:26:20Yeah, this is last week on Raw.
00:26:22So Dirty Dom tried to take a walk during the title defense against Rusev.
00:26:26Pensa showed up, but a stop to that before Rusev then took the upper hand in the matchup.
00:26:32Dirty Dom trying every dirty trick in the puck.
00:26:35But finally with the refs back turned, one of those tricks worked a low blow before successfully connecting with that 6-1-9.
00:26:44The tap pole splash for the win.
00:26:48Now post match, Pensa made it quite clear that he still has designs of Dom's Intercontinental Championship taken out.
00:26:58Rusev in the process.
00:27:01And now we have a showdown to decide who is going to be the next number one contender for Dirty Dom.
00:27:07All right, you think Rusev's ready? Look at him.
00:27:09Fired up and that is a man I would not want to be in the ring with at the best of times.
00:27:14Good luck tonight, Pensa.
00:27:15Oh, right at it.
00:27:16Trying to have a hot start here as Pensa gets right to the chest of Rusev who's just absorbing it
00:27:21and then looking to deliver some of his own.
00:27:23Tossing Pensa into the corner before a kick is delivered.
00:27:26Power versus movement here. That is the battle right now.
00:27:30Movement is winning, but it's just bouncing off Rusev who's a wall of a human being.
00:27:35Is he ever? Of course, these two met up back on September 8th.
00:27:40We saw Rusev actually defeat Pensa.
00:27:43That was a spectacular evening when he hit that mid-air Machka kick.
00:27:47And the big right hand is delivered.
00:27:50Delivered to perfection.
00:27:51Now both of these two men have interfered in one another's title opportunities at times.
00:27:56And they've come to blows on more than one occasion in recent weeks.
00:28:00So it's a good chance to put a rival in the rear view mirror
00:28:04so you can focus fully on Dirty Dom and the Intercontinental Championship.
00:28:08That is what Pensa does best in spectacular fashion.
00:28:13You can see him reaching for his lower back himself.
00:28:16What height, what distance he was able to get.
00:28:19We always talk about it, the kind of high risk, high danger, but high impact offense completely wiping Rusev Alba.
00:28:27May have taken a choke out of the luchador in the process.
00:28:30Pensa looking at a springboard.
00:28:35And the DDT and lateral press for Penta.
00:28:39Rusev spiked right on the top of his head there.
00:28:43Thought he was out cold for a second.
00:28:45Trying to shake those cobwebs off.
00:28:47It takes a hell of a lot to get Rusev down in the first place.
00:28:51And keeping him down is a whole other battle.
00:28:53Trying to crawl his way to regain himself.
00:28:57You see him struggling.
00:28:58Oh, here we go, Joe.
00:28:59To get up.
00:29:00Oh, could it be?
00:29:02And you can see the awareness by Rusev.
00:29:07The veteran looking for his third attempt to try to put himself in position for the IC title.
00:29:13Clubbing right hand to the jaw there.
00:29:15Completely wiping out Penta.
00:29:17One shot.
00:29:18As he did a week ago.
00:29:22And that is the danger of a powerhouse brute like Rusev.
00:29:26It's just one punch for all the high-flying ability of Penta.
00:29:31Just straight old-fashioned smash-mouth style of Rusev.
00:29:36Has swung the pendulum back in his favor.
00:29:38When you mention the style of Rusev.
00:29:40This is such an interesting mix of styles to see these two going at it.
00:29:45It's always interesting watching Rusev operate behind the scenes.
00:29:48The entire locker room seemed petrified of this man.
00:29:53Including, of course, Dirty Damu.
00:29:55Apparently wants nothing to do with Rusev.
00:29:57Was hoping he'd be in the rear-view mirror.
00:29:59But a win here would put Rusev back.
00:30:02Or I should say would put Dirty Dam back in the crosshairs of Rusev immediately.
00:30:07It was just a week ago that he was up against Dirty Damu.
00:30:10Oh!
00:30:11Man, oh man!
00:30:12Penta quick to turn things around.
00:30:14Hooking the leg.
00:30:15Looking for the win.
00:30:16But the kick out at two.
00:30:18Once again, it's that superior movement of Penta.
00:30:20Even when he's up against it, he's getting beaten from pillar to post.
00:30:23One backcracker out of nowhere.
00:30:25Again, shifts the momentum in this one.
00:30:28Yeah!
00:30:29And now you can sense that Penta believes he has that momentum.
00:30:33Oh!
00:30:34The baseball slide as he gets out of the way.
00:30:36And then...
00:30:37Oh!
00:30:38Just flop-jacks him right into the steel steps!
00:30:41The impact on the steel steps!
00:30:43Oh!
00:30:44Penta steps!
00:30:53Wade just went...
00:30:54Oh no!
00:30:55Oh!
00:30:56Oh!
00:30:57Felt that he was in control and Rusev sends him right over our announce desk.
00:31:02they're well out of the way of the vulgarian brookies
00:31:08almost lost my legs on that one
00:31:14yeah now he posts them as hard as could be
00:31:17try to recover things here
00:31:19what a mess Jotas
00:31:21courtesy of Rusev
00:31:23just a wrecking ball of a human being
00:31:28monitors smashed
00:31:31as is the skull of Penta
00:31:33ever since he got out of the way of that baseball slide
00:31:40from that point forward
00:31:42it has been a destructive stretch
00:31:44put forth by Rusev
00:31:46big kick right to the sternum from Rusev
00:32:04try and get a level of normalcy back at the desk here
00:32:08I'm struggling myself Joe
00:32:10you can see Penta's trying to get a little normalcy back
00:32:14and he's thinking and failing in the process
00:32:18gloating pin there from Rusev
00:32:20and it was a late kick out from Penta
00:32:23you do feel but Rusev is inching incredibly close to victory here
00:32:27winner will get back in with Dirty Dom
00:32:32to fight for the intercontinental championship
00:32:35both men highly irate in recent weeks
00:32:38and they feel they've been screwed out of their title opportunities
00:32:42on more than one occasion
00:32:43by Dirty Dom
00:32:45the Tulo blows
00:32:47and a timekeeper's hammer
00:32:48will have you think that way
00:32:50well just when you think you've got Dirty Dom figured out
00:32:52he comes up with a new trick
00:32:54constantly working
00:32:56constantly operating
00:32:57to get himself the upper hand
00:32:59in all matches and all scenarios
00:33:01even more so now that the judgment day
00:33:05are apparently not going to be backing him up
00:33:07a big drop kick
00:33:08by the big man
00:33:09it has just turned into a Rusev show
00:33:17over the past few minutes of this one
00:33:20Rusev show
00:33:50to fight for the intercontinental championship
00:33:53as you see Rusev trying to
00:33:55work on that mask of Penta
00:33:57everything changed here
00:33:59when he flapjacked him onto the steel steps
00:34:01and now
00:34:02just securing Penta
00:34:05in his grasp
00:34:07good old fashioned pair hug there
00:34:09from Rusev
00:34:10when Penta was trying to pick up the pace
00:34:12build some momentum
00:34:14just cannot do that
00:34:16against someone as powerful as Rusev
00:34:18Penta able to get out of the way
00:34:23and deliver the kick
00:34:25well Penta's ridden out a hell of a storm here
00:34:28the fact that he's capable of coming back with something
00:34:30the corner handstand kick
00:34:32right to the chest
00:34:34and into the cover
00:34:35both men surely exhausted
00:34:43and feeling the pain at this point
00:34:45we're getting driven by that desire for gold
00:34:49another opportunity at Dirty Dom awaits
00:34:52who can put this one away
00:34:55Dirty Dom who used underhanded tactics
00:34:57to recently defend his IC title
00:34:59against both of these men
00:35:01Rusev suddenly getting his clock cleaned
00:35:07after a major period of dominance in this match
00:35:11he's turned around in a big way
00:35:13and did his second win
00:35:14now Penta
00:35:15we're going to close this one out
00:35:17could he be lining it up again
00:35:20Rusev was smart enough
00:35:22and now he's climbing up top
00:35:25as Penta has him
00:35:27right now
00:35:28he did it again
00:35:30he did it again
00:35:31this is how he beat him a month ago
00:35:33oh but this time
00:35:34Penta able to kick out
00:35:36oh god
00:35:37Machka kick to a flying jaw
00:35:40of Penta
00:35:40take a look at this
00:35:42what a bullseye
00:35:43by Rusev
00:35:44precision timing
00:35:46and somehow
00:35:47incredibly
00:35:48Penta lives on
00:35:50but he is living dangerously now
00:35:52and the ball is squarely in the core
00:35:54of the Bulgarian
00:35:55how does Penta survive
00:35:57a mid-air Machka kick like that
00:36:00Rusev wants to put it away
00:36:02and end it right here
00:36:03well this is
00:36:04spine snapping time
00:36:06for Rusev
00:36:07the accolade applied
00:36:09will not escape
00:36:10Penta escapes
00:36:12the accolade opportunity
00:36:14look at
00:36:15the driver
00:36:16Penta driver
00:36:18well both men have now taken
00:36:24one another's best shots
00:36:26and kept on ticking
00:36:28wow
00:36:29a mid-air Machka kick
00:36:32doesn't end it
00:36:33a Penta driver
00:36:34doesn't end it
00:36:35you can see
00:36:36how badly
00:36:37they want this
00:36:39number one
00:36:40contenders match

00:44:23and saturday november 1st
00:44:25tickets are on sale now
00:44:27via seat
00:44:28i understand what you're saying
00:44:36why we weren't in the battle royal last week
00:44:38and i trust you
00:44:40but i still think
00:44:42we should have been in it
00:44:43it's the fastest way to the world heavyweight championship
00:44:46we should have gone down to the ring
00:44:48destroyed
00:44:49every man in that
00:44:51in the match
00:44:51i don't see any other way
00:44:53so please
00:44:55i mean
00:44:56i love your idea
00:44:59i really do
00:45:00but there's a consequence to it
00:45:02because it would have exacerbated
00:45:03an already pissed off adam pierce
00:45:05who could have suspended all three of us
00:45:07indefinitely without pay
00:45:08and made it his life's mission
00:45:11to keep you away from the world heavyweight title
00:45:14but instead of
00:45:15using that great idea of yours
00:45:18on 20 men
00:45:19let's just use it on
00:45:20one man
00:45:21because one man shares our vision right now
00:45:26he's looking at saturday night
00:45:27cm punk and jay usho
00:45:29are going to beat each other half to death
00:45:31one of them emerges as the world heavyweight champion
00:45:34that world heavyweight champion
00:45:35shows up next monday on raw
00:45:37a victim
00:45:38looking to be victimized
00:45:40by a true victimizer
00:45:43now you eliminate that one man tonight that shares our vision
00:45:48and your path
00:45:51to the world heavyweight championship
00:45:54is clear
00:45:56i want you to go to pierce
00:46:01and i want you to get me a match
00:46:04with that man
00:46:05tonight
00:46:06well i've already gone to pierce
00:46:09and you already have a match with that man tonight
00:46:12and if you don't mind getting on your gear
00:46:14that match is coming up
00:46:16very soon
00:46:18who's it against

00:46:45from that being decided
00:46:47between

00:46:48and c.m.
00:46:50pung
00:46:50joe and wade with you here
00:46:52but that look in broadbreaker's eyes
00:46:54when he buys into
00:46:55a paul hayman plan
00:46:56it's scary
00:46:57we're seeing the rise of a foot soldier
00:46:59who has decided
00:47:00he wants to grab power
00:47:01and become king here
00:47:03on raw
00:47:04he wants a piece of that
00:47:05dope

00:47:18it was the main roster debut
00:47:20for oscar

00:47:54Oh, my God.
00:48:24Oh, my God.
00:48:54Yes, I want to make it all official as of right now.
00:49:18Hello, Mr. Pierce.
00:49:19Knock, knock.
00:49:19Let me call you back.
00:49:20Nice to see you, mate.
00:49:21I'm glad you guys are here.
00:49:22Where is Dom?
00:49:23Dom?
00:49:23I don't hear about Dom.
00:49:24Why?
00:49:24I have some news that he needs to hear from me.
00:49:27But since he's not here and you are, what can I do for you?
00:49:30What can you do for us?
00:49:31You can give us our tag team title rematch tonight.
00:49:33Well, what JD means is we would like to know when we should expect our tag team rematch against
00:49:40AJ and Dragon.
00:49:41We were hoping it would be tonight.
00:49:45Tonight?
00:49:45You guys are already busy tonight.
00:49:48No, we're not.
00:49:49You are.
00:49:49You don't remember the Battle Royale last week?
00:49:51Not especially, no.
00:49:51Of course, you don't remember.
00:49:52You got eliminated.
00:49:53Instead of leaving, you jumped back in there and the two of you eliminated somebody else
00:49:57illegally.
00:49:58That person came to me this morning really pissed off.
00:50:01Demanded a match against either one of you.
00:50:02So you two have a choice.
00:50:04Because tonight, one of you is going to go one-on-one with Sheamus.
00:50:11Good.
00:50:12I'll fight Sheamus.
00:50:13And when I rip his head off, I'm coming back here.
00:50:16And when he's done, uh-huh, don't forget.
00:50:23Tag team titles.
00:50:26Oh, I won't forget.
00:50:46The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:51:07And introducing us from Scottsdale, Arizona,
00:51:13WWE Hall of Famer,
00:51:18Nikki Bella!
00:51:22Nikki's right in the middle of things with Judgment Day.
00:51:25Nikki Bella against Roxanne Perez is next.
00:51:37Oh, Wade, it was a week ago that Nikki Bella gave the current women's champion, Stephanie Bacare, some wise advice.
00:51:46She also saved her from more punishment.
00:51:50Yeah, and wise advice is a great way of putting it, Joe Tess.
00:51:54And if I was to give some wise advice to anybody, I'd say, don't stick your nose in other people's business.
00:52:01Oh, boy.
00:52:02Because by saving Stephanie Bacare last week, you've essentially flipped the roles with her this week.
00:52:09And you are the one who has to battle with the Judgment Day.
00:52:13You don't feel she did the right thing?
00:52:15The right thing by who? By Stephanie Bacare? Yeah.
00:52:18The right thing by herself? Maybe not.
00:52:21Look, put it this way.
00:52:23If a tag team came out here, I don't know, say Finn Balor and JD McDonough, and came to attack you.
00:52:29Yes.
00:52:29Okay, would I get involved to save Joe Tess?
00:52:32Yeah, 100%.
00:52:32Hell no.
00:52:33Oh, boy.
00:52:34I'd say Joe Tess.
00:52:34I have to redefine the way I look at our relationship then.
00:52:38Here's the deal.
00:52:39I don't want Judgment Day coming after me.
00:52:41It's that simple.
00:52:42So I have to be smart.
00:52:43Self-preservation is an admirable trait, in my opinion.
00:52:47And I would choose to preserve myself over someone like Joe Tess.
00:52:52And I feel that Nikki Bella would do well to heed that kind of advice.
00:52:56Incredibly noble, but also rather reckless, in my estimation.
00:53:01It's that simple.
00:53:26And your opponent, accompanied by Raquel Rodriguez, from Laredo, Texas, representing the Judgement
00:53:42Day, Roxanne Rodriguez.
00:53:47Long-tabbed as a rising star, and now one of the most active stars, and just that level
00:54:00of confidence that she carries with herself, and that fearlessness and determination of
00:54:07Roxanne Perez.
00:54:08And then carries herself like a Hall of Fame veteran, that much confidence, and that much
00:54:16ability.
00:54:18Well, of course, it is the woman opposite her tonight who is the veteran with the Hall of
00:54:23Fame credentials, Nikki Bella.
00:54:24Such great history here at the Honda Center, WrestleMania 12 was here, Shawn Michaels able to win the
00:54:45WWE Championship, Triple H retained here at WrestleMania 2000, and now tonight, sold out for Monday
00:54:51Night Raw on Netflix, and the stars are in attendance.
00:54:57Cristina Alonso, she has that amazing special, Upper Classy, streaming now on Netflix, great
00:55:03comedian.
00:55:12Roxanne Perez, Wade, will step to anyone, will never say no to a match, especially one like
00:55:17this.
00:55:18Here's how we got it, last week on Raw, Stephanie Vaquer taking on Roxanne Perez, Vaquer showing
00:55:24the world exactly why she is the champ, getting the win with an Angel Wings.
00:55:31Nice victory there for Vaquer, but as the post-match celebrations began, they were swiftly ended
00:55:37by a Judgment Day beatdown, and that was until Vaquer's locker room friend, the Hall of Famer, Nikki Bella, evened the odds, and together Vaquer and Nikki cleared out the miscreants, and earned themselves a temporary reprieve
00:55:54from the danger, at least until tonight, and I can tell you right now, Big Mammy Cool on the
00:56:00outside is rather irate, but it is in fact Roxanne Perez, who gets the first shot at Nikki Bella
00:56:07here.
00:56:08So here we go, the Hall of Famer, of course, Nikki was inducted into that classic 2020 against
00:56:13Roxanne Perez.
00:56:15What a classic generation, this is Roxanne Perez, who grew up idolizing Nikki Bella, put a little
00:56:23smack online.
00:56:25She was trying to show her respect here.
00:56:26I don't know about that.
00:56:28Extending a hand.
00:56:30I mean, versus what she's been seeing on social media.
00:56:32Oh!
00:56:33Nikki Bella was not born yesterday, she certainly was not going to fall for that one.
00:56:37And now Bella trying to quickly get to the attack, but out into the apron before driving
00:56:43that shoulder in.
00:56:46Bella quick to it.
00:56:49Nikki Bella knows a trick or two, 20-plus years in this industry.
00:56:54As great as Roxanne Perez is, she is lacking experience at the very top level, and that
00:57:00is something the two-time world champ Nikki Bella has in spades.
00:57:04But I do admire the attitude of Roxanne Perez, absolutely fearless to steal a line from her
00:57:17former idol, Nikki Bella, when it comes to competing against these top stars in the division.
00:57:23Oh, quick to counter is Perez after Beville was trying to lock up that left arm.
00:57:28Nikki Bella just carries that aura of major star power.
00:57:36There's a major crossover star in the War of the Light Entertainment 2.
00:57:40Now back to doing what she loves best.
00:57:43There's a hard line on the back of the neck there, and now going to town on that neck is
00:57:47Roxanne Perez.
00:57:49Windmill right hands delivered by Perez.
00:57:51Of course, Perez knows everything about Nikki Bella.
00:57:57Used to study her on Total Divas back in the day when she was a young girl.
00:58:01Grew up, perhaps one day, wanting to tag with Nikki Bella.
00:58:04Hasn't quite worked out that way now.
00:58:06Major rivals.
00:58:08Of course, Nikki Bella, two-times Divas champion, had the longest title reign in history.
00:58:12Over 300 days.
00:58:13But you mentioned the generational gap.
00:58:15How that can play with a young superstar when you're in there against a legend that you looked up to.
00:58:21Nikki Bella has just had answers for everything that Roxanne Perez is trying to throw at thus far.
00:58:26The pace being set early on by Nikki Bella.
00:58:29Nikki Bella simply looked razor sharp this evening and unsurprisingly heading to the outside
00:58:34and the safe embrace of Big Manny Kool.
00:58:38Six right to the barrier as Raquel Rodriguez steps off to the side.
00:58:48And Nikki Bella's in control here against Perez.
00:58:50It's just been the Nikki Bella show from the word go.
00:58:53And Roxanne Perez may have overestimated her abilities this evening.
00:58:58Came in incredibly cocky and confident.
00:59:01And you see that dissipating as the seconds kick by.
00:59:04Slam and ran into that second turnbuckle and then bringing her up top as well.
00:59:09Major power advantage almost everyone has against Roxanne Perez.
00:59:13Came into play there.
00:59:16That speed and nimble ability.
00:59:18Wait a second.
00:59:19Oh, Raquel Rodriguez.
00:59:21As Roxanne was grabbing the attention of our referee.
00:59:26It's Raquel Rodriguez getting the best of Nikki Bella.
00:59:30Straight from the Judgment Day playbook.
00:59:33Wait until the prime moments are capitalized.
00:59:37Oh, slingshotting her right into that second rope.
00:59:40How's that neck, Nikki?
00:59:41And how quickly things turn when you deal with Judgment Day.
00:59:45Wait, you are appreciating the early work of Nikki Bella.
00:59:56And then in one instance where the referee has to turn her attention, Raquel Rodriguez involves herself.
01:00:04Well, it harkens back to what I was saying earlier, Joe, when it comes to putting yourself in the jaws of danger unnecessarily.
01:00:12You've essentially switched places with Stephanie Vercur this week by saving her last week, sticking your nose in someone else's business.
01:00:21Now, guess what?
01:00:22It's two on one against you.
01:00:25And of course, inevitably, at some point, Raquel was going to involve herself in this match.
01:00:30And that's exactly what happened.
01:00:32And wasn't Raquel castigating Dirty Dom a little earlier?
01:00:39Yes, she was.
01:00:40He is routinely cheating.
01:00:42Because he does.
01:00:45And running uppercut.
01:00:46I think it's part of the rules.
01:00:49If you're going to be allowed in the clubhouse for the Judgment Day, you have to have cheated at some point in the last week.
01:00:55Here's Perez into the cover.
01:00:56And Nikki Bella able to survive it.
01:01:00Nikki Bella living dangerously now.
01:01:02Once Roxanne Perez gets the upper hand, history has told us she rarely gives it up.
01:01:08And once again attacking the surgically repaired neck of Nikki Bella.
01:01:13And of course, Roxanne Perez, being a former fangirl of Nikki Bella, knows all about that surgery.
01:01:20Probably could tell you the exact date it happened, how long she was out for, and the fact that once upon a time, Nikki Bella retired due to that injury.
01:01:29And yet all the torque and pressure she's putting on her neck and head.
01:01:35It just shows you how Roxanne Perez has gone from that saccharine sweet little girl that you'll see on videos, on social media.
01:01:42She's going to meet her idol, Nikki Bella, 10 plus years ago.
01:01:47So the kind of cutthroat competitor she is today that is surely destined for greatness in this industry.
01:01:54Driving down that elbow right to the back of the neck as well.
01:02:00And look at the smug look on Raquel Rodriguez as she continues to watch Roxanne Perez get to work on Nikki Bella.
01:02:07Raquel knows full well that the reason Roxanne has the upper hand in this match is due to a major assist from her big tag partner on the outside, Raquel.
01:02:23And this has just become a procession for Roxanne Perez, who is finding it too easy ever since the beatdown of that neck of Nikki Bella began.
01:02:38Last week we saw the stunning return of Nikki Bella to help save Stephanie Becker after Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez were attacking post-match.
01:03:03Now it's Nikki Bella in against Roxanne Perez as Perez has been getting the best of her.
01:03:09And that running uppercut to the back and neck area.
01:03:14And now Perez, the double rope springboard moonsault.
01:03:19And the kick out at two as Raquel Rodriguez looks on Wade.
01:03:22Perez has done an incredible job of attacking that neck of Nikki Bella.
01:03:26So it's a neck that's been surgically repaired in the past.
01:03:28And of course Perez, her fandom of Nikki Bella from the past knew exactly where the weakness is and is now relentlessly attacking that neck.
01:03:39And in various ways, as now you can see all the leverage she's able to get, twisting and torquing and utilizing her own left hand.
01:03:49And as Bella's trying to fight out of it, she delivers those left elbows to Perez.
01:03:56Nikki Bella's got two fused vertebrae in that neck.
01:04:00And it's a wonder that Nikki Bella can even feel her fingertips at this point.
01:04:04Because these shots are just brutal.
01:04:07They are pinpoint targeted.
01:04:09And as you said, Joe, they are varied in nature.
01:04:12Which shows you the growing playbook of Roxanne Perez.
01:04:17And now Bella just says, you know what?
01:04:28Let's fight.
01:04:30While slugging away through the pain now is Nikki Bella.
01:04:34Something the young pop Roxanne Perez needs to learn.
01:04:38You don't celebrate until you've got this one closed out.
01:04:40And there is fight left in the Hall of Famer.
01:04:43Nikki Bella delivering right hand after right hand.
01:04:47Well, Bella now tapping into that other gear.
01:04:52If she ever weighed.
01:04:54This is the kind of gear that took Nikki Bella to the Hall of Fame.
01:04:58To several world championships.
01:05:00And may well get her through this predicament when it was looking like all was lost.
01:05:06Roxanne Perez writhing in pain as Raquel Rodriguez looks to rally with support here.
01:05:13As both of our competitors try to get to their feet deep into this match.
01:05:18And you know, Bella's hurting in a big way.
01:05:27But completely impervious to that pain seemingly.
01:05:31Got that adrenaline pumping through her veins.
01:05:34Pulled on by this capacity audience here in Anaheim.
01:05:38Excellent attack by Nikki Bella.
01:05:40And delivering off the ropes.
01:05:45And a count of two.
01:05:48Nikki Bella is just looking back to her best now.
01:05:51Shaking off any ring rust that may have been there when she first returned.
01:05:55And boy, oh boy, does she need to be at her best this evening.
01:05:59Oh, could she?
01:06:00But instead, Roxanne Perez repositioning herself.
01:06:05Trying for that rack attack 2.0.
01:06:08But a nice transition, as you mentioned there, from Roxanne Perez.
01:06:12Looking to choke out the Hall of Famer.
01:06:14She got her into that fireman's carry.
01:06:16Just couldn't deliver the cutter at the end.
01:06:18Instead, it's Nikki Bella now.
01:06:21Again, that second rope driving down across her throat.
01:06:25Bella's body just not co-opied for a second.
01:06:28Wow, big spine buster.
01:06:29Mind buster into the hook of the leg.
01:06:31And getting that left shoulder up is Perez.
01:06:34Once again, Raquel smells danger and wants to insert herself to the match.
01:06:41Bella four on the jaw.
01:06:43And with that distraction, could it be a quick one?
01:06:46Oh, her foot was on the ropes.
01:06:49Foot was on the ropes there.
01:06:50Jessica Carr simply too quick for Perez.
01:06:54That went up.
01:06:54How about Nikki Bella turning things around?
01:06:56And a count of two and a half.
01:06:58There's one balanced on a knife edge.
01:07:02And it's Nikki Bella who now has the wind in her sails.
01:07:06And she wants it again.
01:07:09Rack attack 2.0 lined up.
01:07:12Perez fights herself free again with a series of elbows.
01:07:16Perez knows the danger of that move.
01:07:17Oh, moving out of the way just in the nick of time and face first.
01:07:22Into the buckle, of course, with that damage there.
01:07:25Oh, such awareness by Perez.
01:07:28Pop rocks from the corner.
01:07:30Here is your winner, Roxanne Perez.
01:07:39Well, what an effort from Nikki Bella.
01:07:42But it was basically the insertion of Raquel on the outside two times in this match.
01:07:48And, oh, here we go.
01:07:50It's like an action replay of the beatdown on the curve from last week.
01:07:53But Nikki Bella is, oh, now in the hot seat.
01:07:59Remember a week ago, it was Nikki Bella coming to help Stephanie Bacare.
01:08:06And now the champ is here to return the favor.
01:08:10Raquel runs from nobody.
01:08:18Not even the world champ.
01:08:24Face to face.
01:08:40Raquel Rodriguez is one intimidating woman.
01:08:46Stephanie Bacare did not want to take a backward step.
01:08:49Help having Nikki Bella by her side.
01:08:52But we've got to keep a close eye on that situation in the coming weeks.
01:08:57Great to see Nikki Bella and Stephanie Bacare and what they have developed with their friendship.
01:09:03And, Wade, remember, still to come tonight, the Women's Tag Team Championship match.
01:09:10It is all brought about because of this on social media from Bayley.
01:09:18Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss.
01:09:21Woo!
01:09:22The Women's Tag Team Champions.
01:09:24I mean, you guys have a little bit of a rocking friendship.
01:09:26I won't bring that up or anything.
01:09:28Because you are the Women's Tag Team Champions.
01:09:30And respect to you.
01:09:31Respect to you.
01:09:32But I think that you guys need a real challenge.
01:09:35I think that you guys need to put yourself to the limit and test your French, I mean, tag team against two of the best.
01:09:44Against me and my best tag team partner, Lyra Valkyrie.
01:09:50What do you say, huh?
01:09:51Monday Night Raw?
01:09:52Right.
01:09:53Sounds great.
01:09:54I'll see you idiots there.
01:09:57Lyra!
01:10:00All right, go ahead.
01:10:02We should be in the title match tonight.
01:10:04You called us in line.
01:10:05What's going on?
01:10:07How's it going on?
01:10:08Ask her, Kyrie.
01:10:09I didn't have anything to do with theaga.
01:10:11What are you doing, Kyrie?
01:10:11Don't make us out of it!
01:10:13Kyrie, I-
01:10:15Dude, what was that about?
01:10:17Hey, what do you think it was about?
01:10:19It was about this mess that you've gotten us into now.
01:10:21A mess?
01:10:23Then forget about them.
01:10:25And surprise, I got you a matching tag team jacket in Tokyo.
01:10:29Anyways, let's go.
01:10:31Let's go.
01:10:33Let's go.
01:10:35Let's go.
01:10:37Let's go.
01:10:39Tag team jacket in Tokyo.
01:10:41Anyways, tonight, are you excited?
01:10:43Yeah, I'm excited. Is this my surprise?
01:10:45Well, no, the tag team title match was your surprise.
01:10:47Dude, I have not been in the ring with Charlotte Flair or Alexa Bliss.
01:10:51This is a huge deal.
01:10:53I know, I know. But look, the tag team titles mean a lot to me.
01:10:56And I know you would like to rewrite some history.
01:10:58It's a big night and I believe in us, we're in the main event,
01:11:01and I really think that we could do this.
01:11:03But now that you say that you haven't been in the ring with Charlotte or Alexa,
01:11:07what if we lose?
01:11:09You know what, baby?
01:11:13What if we win?
01:11:19Now you're talking.
01:11:21That's a freaking liar.
01:11:23Bam. We got it. Bam. Bam. Bam. Bam.
01:11:25Bam. Dude.
01:11:27Oh, yeah. Oh, it's just you, huh? It's just you?
01:11:33You don't give a damn about what I think about us?
01:11:36Man, come on, bruh.
01:11:37Yo, remind you.
01:11:39I saved your ass twice last week in that battle royal.
01:11:42Two times.
01:11:43Soon as I turned my back helping your ass, you threw me out.
01:11:47Man, I was trying to throw LA Knight over the top.
01:11:51Bro, I don't, I see the tape, bruh.
01:11:53Don't give me all that, man.
01:11:55You see the opportunity, and guess what?
01:11:57You saved your own ass.
01:11:58You knew the play.
01:11:59We called it.
01:12:00And that battle royal, it's supposed to come down between me and you.
01:12:03Then.
01:12:04Then it's every man for themselves.
01:12:06What you thought about yourself?
01:12:08Just like you always do.
01:12:10You know what I think?
01:12:12I think that you thought, if it really did come between me and you,
01:12:18if you really believed in yourself, you won't be so scared to find out.
01:12:32Now, Jimmy shooting straight with Jay.
01:12:35Let's go.
01:13:01The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
01:13:10Introducing parts accompanied by WWE Hall of Famer,
01:13:16The Oracle, Paul Heyman, and Big Brunson Reed.
01:13:22Representing the vision, Braun Breaker.
01:13:30Only 14 days ago when everything changed.
01:13:33When Braun Breaker heard Seth Rollins say,
01:13:36I never needed anybody.
01:13:38Now comes the next step in the vision's vision.
01:13:42Breaker against the isness of the business.
01:13:45L.A. Knight.
01:13:47Yeah!
01:14:00Ladies, gentlemen, things that live in California.
01:14:15My name is Paul Heyman.
01:14:21Let's understand the power that stands before you tonight.
01:14:28First of all, the OTT, the original tribal, Brunson Reed.
01:14:43And tonight, a main event no matter where he is on the card.
01:14:58The future of WWE.
01:15:13The future of WrestleMania.
01:15:17The baddest dog on the planet.
01:15:22Ladies and gentlemen, Braun Breaker.
01:15:32Always an intimidating presence has made it quite clear on Raw in the past couple of weeks since he's been on the show.
01:16:00Raw in the past couple of weeks since usurping Seth Rollins and his vision.
01:16:06Braun Breaker wants power.
01:16:08You want power?
01:16:09You need gold to get to gold.
01:16:12You got to keep winning on a major, major main event tier matchup coming up next against the megastar L.A. Knight.

01:17:05Braun Breaker spelled with two K's.
01:17:08He thinks one is for crazy with a K and based on recent events, you have to a little crazy to step into the ring with him.
01:17:15With him.
01:17:16And here's your coach.
01:17:46He has stated his goal as clear as could be, the World Heavyweight Championship, after Jay and Hunk will settle things this coming weekend.
01:18:08The self-proclaimed is-ness of the business now, Wade.
01:18:12But what he is right now is in a spot that should come with a warning label because Ron Breaker with Paul Heyman and Bronson Reed by his side, there is danger in the air.
01:18:23Well, danger tends to be an attractor for L.A. Knight who takes a backward step to nobody on the roster.
01:18:32And of course, we're going to have ourselves a new World Heavyweight Champion crowned this Saturday at Saturday Night's main event.
01:18:39Either Jey Uso or CM Punk.
01:18:42Now, this is not a number one contenders match, at least officially speaking.
01:18:49However, you have to think management are going to look at the winner of a match of this caliber and think, yeah, maybe that guy is the next man up.
01:18:57But I will promise you this, Joe Test, whoever loses this match will absolutely not be next in line for a championship shot.
01:19:04It's a great scene as they just size each other up.
01:19:15Two absolute mass monsters here on Raw, both of whom can move at the speed of light.
01:19:22Although I will give the movement speed edge to Braun Breaker, perhaps the fastest man I have ever seen, at least in the heavyweight category in my entire life.
01:19:32Of course, that is edged by the experience factor when it comes to the megastar L.A. Knight, who has been in these high-level clashes several times in his career.
01:19:44And has such a wide range of offense.
01:19:48The assault can come in any direction with anything as he delivers the elbow there.
01:19:55Simply moved too quick for Braun Breaker on that one, who is a little slow out of the blocks right now.
01:20:02But there is the power game of Breaker.
01:20:10And Knight comes right back at him with the clothesline.
01:20:13Simply a step ahead of Braun Breaker, mentally speaking, if not physically speaking, in the early goings here.
01:20:23Of course, L.A. Knight has been a perennial main event player.
01:20:27Oh, look at that. That was just a blur.
01:20:29That was an absolute blur.
01:20:32That came with a vicious ending.
01:20:34Did the producer hit fast forward at some point there?
01:20:37It was like the tape skipped ahead, but I actually saw it with my own eyes.
01:20:41But how does he do that at over 250 pounds weight?
01:20:45I've never seen anyone in the history of this industry, in a flash, turn on the afterburners like Braun Breaker can.
01:20:52And then, of course, it caught L.A. Knight completely unaware there's nothing you can do to prepare for that.
01:21:01And the worst part is you know it's coming.
01:21:03Oh, cross-body by Knight.
01:21:05Could he do it?
01:21:09Knight just still trying to shake off that sudden speed of Braun Breaker.
01:21:13Managing to dig himself out of trouble, but has not quite looked the same ever since.
01:21:18What an absolute freak Braun Breaker really is.
01:21:21Honestly.
01:21:22And he keeps getting better.
01:21:23That's the scariest part.
01:21:28Rag-dolling him.
01:21:28Oh, how about this?
01:21:29How about this?
01:21:32LA Knight was able to get out the back door and right back to the offensive attack is Braun Breaker.
01:21:37And you look at a 20-year veteran like L.A. Knight, and you think this guy has seen it all in his career.
01:21:42He's had these hungry, powerful, up-and-coming contenders.
01:21:45And then you get in the ring with a Braun Breaker.
01:21:49And if you're LA Knight, you suddenly realize, this is all new to me.
01:21:52I'm the rookie in here.
01:21:53I've never faced anything like this.
01:21:56Of course, Knight has been on the long run of top competition.
01:22:01Triple threat that CM Punk recently won.
01:22:04And then the battle royal to determine the number one contender for the World Heavyweight Championship that Jey Uso won.
01:22:11He was eliminated by Jey Uso a week ago.
01:22:17It's interesting to hear the exchange between Jimmy and Jey Uso.
01:22:24Yeah, a lot of old feeling of resentment there at the moment.
01:22:28Certainly on Jimmy's side.
01:22:29He does not see the point of view with Jey Uso.
01:22:31A dropkick right through the ropes by L.A. Knight.
01:22:36Don't even think about Jey Uso the ball.
01:22:38Here we go.
01:22:44L.A. Knight has to deal, of course, with Big Bronson Reed and Paul Heyman off to the side
01:22:50as he is in control right now against Braun Breaker.
01:22:53Well, to be clear, Bronson Reed has done nothing wrong, but his mere presence alone is a threat.
01:23:00And there are now three pairs of eyes burning a hole into the megastar L.A. Knight when you include Paul Heyman.
01:23:07And that little pause for contemplation there by L.A. Knight opened a huge window.
01:23:12Oh, my!
01:23:14Gorilla press on top of the table!
01:23:18Braun Breaker does not need a second invitation to launch a vicious attack on anyone.
01:23:24And now Breaker on top of our announced desk as L.A. Knight is in such a tough position here.
01:23:35Championship goal right in front of these two men.
01:23:38That's what they're aiming to climb to.
01:23:39That's what they both aspire to win in this game.
01:23:44Of course, Jey Uso or CM Punk will be winning that championship this Saturday at Saturday night's main event.
01:23:52What comes next for them after that may well be the winner of this match.
01:24:02I swear before you came on board, Joe Taggart, this desk never got trashed as much as it does these days.
01:24:09Can you believe that?
01:24:09Every time.
01:24:10You are a magnet.
01:24:11It's a 67th birthday this weekend.
01:24:12It's just a giant target.
01:24:14Every single match.
01:24:16He's drinking water bottles all over where I have to sit down right now.
01:24:19But right now, it's L.A. Knight.
01:24:21Who he's breaking into the corner.
01:24:23I mean, the velocity that he just smashed him against the turnbuckles.
01:24:27Turnbuckles.
