00:00Right now, or so they say, ladies and gentlemen, Randy Orton, the number one contender for the world's heavyweight title against a cerebral assassin.
00:08This is going to be an awesome, now, one-on-one main event.
00:12And let's go back to the Elimination Chamber and see the latest installment between these two.
00:18Ten tons of steel, two miles of chain, five of the greatest wrestlers in the history of this business, and yet here I stand, the world's heavyweight champion.
00:39Triple H, you pinned me in the Elimination Chamber with Batista's help after he had been eliminated.
00:51I demand a rematch for the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:58I agree.
01:00Tonight, we're going to have a number one contender's match.
01:04It'll be Batista versus Randy Orton.
01:09Oh, he said.
01:12Oh, Orton just smashed Batista into the cover.
01:16Wait, wait, go.
01:17Yes, no way.
01:18Oh, my God, he did it.
01:19Randy Orton is the number one contender for the world's heavyweight title.
01:25The single greatest moment in my life happened at SummerSlam.
01:31Because right here in this ring, I became the youngest world champion in history.
01:40Randy Orton, the man of destiny.
01:44Now, everything I dreamt of, everything I worked oh so hard for was taken away from me by one man.
01:53Triple H.
01:54Orton made a choice.
02:01The choice was to take the World Heavyweight Championship.
02:04My World Heavyweight Championship.
02:08And the beating that you took was a consequence of the decisions that you made.
02:14And you've suffered for it too, haven't you, Randy?
02:18Well, trust me, you're going to suffer some more.
02:22At the Royal Rumble, it will be Triple H defending the World Heavyweight title against Randy Orton.
02:28What a main event.
02:30Triple H.
02:31I want it all back.
02:34Randy Orton, I brought you into this world, and I will take you out of this world.
02:41I'm going to beat you, and once again, become the World Heavyweight Champion.
02:48Look at the look on Triple H's face.
02:50He's seen right into his future.
02:51Is it Orton's destiny to regain the World Heavyweight title?
02:55I don't believe in destiny.
02:57I want back my pride, I want my blood, and I want my title.
03:04Is it Orton's destiny?
03:05Is it Orton's destiny?
03:09Hey!
03:17Hey!
03:25Hey!
03:27Can I make it you?
03:28Hey!
03:28A football league cut that original 4-football is for the World Heavyweight Championship!
03:35And currently, first-man calendar, from St. Louis, Missouri, weighing 260 pounds, Randy Orton!
03:45The time is here and now for the 24-year-old Randy Orton to step up one more level again
03:53and regain the world's heavyweight title.
03:56King Otago, his dad, Bob Orton Jr., in a week.
04:00Mom and dad are watching back in St. Louis.
04:02They've got to be sitting on the edge of their seat.
04:04I know I would if my son was competing for the richest prize in this business,
04:10the world's heavyweight title.
04:11Well, he's done it before, and certainly he's capable of doing it again.
04:15But mom and dad back in St. Louis aren't going to be able to help Randy Orton tonight.
04:19He's going to have to take this title himself.
04:21Is he a man of destiny or is he destined to be looking up at the lights at the hands of Triple H again?
04:41Representing Evolution, from British Connecticut, weighing 275 pounds,
04:49the world's heavyweight champion, Triple H.
04:56As far as this man is concerned, his wife revolves around the center by being the world's heavyweight champion.
05:07Well, there's nothing more important in life to Triple H than being the world's heavyweight champion.
05:15It's what he's all about.
05:16He says it's what defines him.
05:20You know, you might very well have said the same thing for young Randy Orton,
05:24the third-generation superstar.
05:26The young man that was bred to be a champion, he has tasted it once, back at SummerSlam 2004.
05:35Orton has fought his way back into the hunt.
05:38The game regained the world title inside the elimination chamber earlier this month.
05:44The way you describe Orton, he's a guy with a wonderful future behind him.
05:47He had the world at his fingertips when he was part of Evolution.
05:53Look at him.
05:54He threw it all away himself.
05:55He's got nobody to blame but himself.
05:57Oh, look at that shot.
06:00And the shadow of the champion will Randy Orton step out of that shadow tonight
06:04and regain his spot as the number one man in this business.
06:10And remember, ladies and gentlemen, again, it is one-on-one mandated by Eric Bischoff just moments ago.
06:17No evolution at ringside.
06:20Right.
06:20You can imagine.
06:22I mean, whatever plan that Triple H was talking to Batista and Flair about earlier in the evening,
06:27I mean, it went right out the window instantly at the hands of Eric Bischoff.
06:30And still, I think there was some sort of a smile on the face of his teeth.
06:36I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when the people told Triple H set you.
06:39It may have shaken Triple H's confidence.
06:42It certainly has altered his strategy, one would have to assume.
06:47There's no backup.
06:48It's only one-on-one.
06:50You notice Randy Orton's left leg is taped.
06:52That's a result of the beating that he survived, I underscore, this past week on Raw.
07:00One fall here, senior referee Earl Hemmer, and there's what it's all about, folks.
07:06The world's heavyweight title.
07:08Only two men in the history of our business have been world champion more than Triple H.
07:12They're both Hall of Famers, Hollywood Hogan and Ric Flair.
07:15That's where Triple H stands right now in the history of this business.
07:19Oh, Randy Orton not to be intimidated.
07:28I wish we could have heard what Triple H was saying, but I can guarantee you one thing.
07:31Obviously, Randy Orton didn't like him.
07:33He took the mid-time exception.
07:35Hard zone blocked by the 24-year-old Randy Orton.
07:37It looks like he moved it quite well on that bum knee.
07:40And Orton now on the back side.
07:42Looking quickly here for the cover.
07:44And going for the pinning combination early.
07:46Orton's score for the right and the left and another right hand.
07:49And the number one contender for the world's title is starting out quickly.
07:53He is.
07:55Oh, my gosh.
07:56Triple H up in the lights here in Fresno.
07:59Capacity crowd on him.
08:01Literally hit the Royal Rumble.
08:02He launched the game.
08:03Look at him.
08:03RKO!
08:04RKO!
08:04RKO!
08:05And Triple H.
08:07Look at the saw his life flash before his eyes there.
08:09The title flash before his eyes.
08:11The one who's obviously trying to end this thing early.
08:13Triple H's life is the title.
08:15The title is his life.
08:17And Orton cannot win by count.
08:19He must keep that in mind.
08:22The young man.
08:22There he is.
08:23Shoving Triple H back in the ring.
08:28Right to the drop kick.
08:30Will it be?
08:31The hook of the wiggle.
08:33Orton got another near fall.
08:34Falling that drop kick.
08:35Gregory signifying only a two count.
08:38How long has this match been going?
08:41Maybe around a minute.
08:42We've already had two near falls by Orton.
08:44Orton clearly the aggressor in this match.
08:47Hard right hand.
08:48Taking Triple H down for that knee in the corner.
08:50Straight right hands.
08:51Referee has got to be very, very careful.
08:54He doesn't get disqualified here.
08:55You're right.
08:56He's got to be careful because if ever anyone had an opportunity, I mean a rare opportunity,
09:01to beat Triple H because it's one-on-one.
09:03Orton's got that opportunity here tonight.
09:05Some say that Randy Orton has the game snubbed in the last five weeks.
09:09Orton has defeated every member of Evolution in one-on-one matches.
09:13Well, you're one of the ones that's been saying it.
09:14Well, I'm not the only one, by the way.
09:19Coralace found it.
09:21Mounting that second roll for hammering down at the challenger.
09:25And Orton, oh, look out!
09:26Orton wants his snake eyes.
09:28Dropping Triple H face first into that top turnbuckle.
09:33I'm going to tell you something.
09:35That's a devastating move right there.
09:36I'll tell you.
09:37Well, I didn't realize that.
09:39And Orton's got it.
09:39I was really worried about the game.
09:44I was about to say he looks wobbly-legged.
09:47But look at that.
09:48What a counter to that RKO by the game.
09:50Certainly a desperation attempt by Triple H's a counter.
09:53Look at this one more time.
09:55Randy Orton, he's wanting to end this thing.
09:57Ernie going over the RKO.
09:59He just catapulted him right out over the top.
10:02Rob onto the floor.
10:02Orton laying on that SmackDown announce table.
10:06Yeah.
10:07Where's the smack?
10:07Where's Taz?
10:08Okay.
10:09Where are they down?
10:11They're down.
10:11They're some grace on this one.
10:13Triple H is surveying the territory here.
10:15Triple H would be more than pleased to win this match by Countdown.
10:18I wish I would think that he would.
10:19But perhaps Orton has been so incapacitated that Triple H is going to be easy pickings here.
10:25And that may not be true.
10:27And then again, I might be wrong.
10:29You might be wrong.
10:31Impact that was.
10:32That put the exclamation point on Orton's problems on the outside.
10:38Oh, look at that.
10:39A lot of mocking going on here tonight.
10:42That's why they call this man the cerebral assassin they are.
10:45He's always thinking.
10:46He's always one step ahead of his opponent.
10:48Oh, referee's got a count going right now.
10:50And Randy Orton's got to think about getting back in the ring sooner than later.
10:53Randy Orton's thinking about his shoulder right now.
10:55Trying to go steal steps.
10:58Triple H.
10:58You know, that move right there may come back the back bar of the game.
11:03And that group here's up to about a count of five.
11:05Well, you know, Triple H just broke that count.
11:07I don't know that Orton would have made it back at you.
11:09I thought you were talking about the move where Triple H is going to go into those steps.
11:13That's not going to come back.
11:14Out of the way.
11:15Maybe I'm wrong.
11:16In any event, Triple H.
11:17I think we may have already witnessed the best of Randy Orton here tonight.
11:36He was pretty good there for about, what, three and a half minutes?
11:39Great offensive player here in the early going.
11:41Let's not count Randy Orton yet.
11:42He had a wonderful future behind him.
11:44A couple of near falls, all that kind of stuff.
11:46Nice to the pass.
11:48Great right hand.
11:50This has been a tough event for Triple H to master since winning the Royal Run.
11:55He's seen him go.
11:59He put right to the face.
12:01Right to the, right to the, right to the face.
12:03And he saw plenty of that.
12:04And a right hand by Orton.
12:05Orton's got a, Orton's got a Russell Triple H back in this thing.
12:08Orton's just street fight style here going upstairs.
12:11And it's simple ride.
12:14Oh, no.
12:16Nice.
12:16Left knee.
12:17And left knee again.
12:19You see the tape on him.
12:20Orton, if you watched Raw this past week, that's why the game is a street.
12:25Of course, you know, you think Orton was trying to hide that tape.
12:28It didn't matter if he didn't wear tape out here at all.
12:31The game knows that, knows that play out here.
12:33Ring post, we've got.
12:36Triple H using the ring post as an ally,
12:39wrapping Orton's leg around the post,
12:41and now ripping at the face of the 24-year-old.
12:44But Orton has a lay on the edge of equipment.
12:48Watch this one more time.
12:49This is Triple H, his first shot at that,
12:52that damaged left leg of Randy Orton.
12:54Certainly reminiscent of Ric Flair in his,
12:56as he prepares for the 54 leg lock.
12:59This is what Lopes has learned well from Flair.
13:01Super Flair, Nate's been wearing his back.
13:03You have to watch this on a monitor in the locker room.
13:06He can't be happy about this.
13:09I don't know what to.
13:10Hanks is happy about being in the Royal Rumble.
13:12Certainly is.
13:13He must have locked his number, whatever it was,
13:15when he's got it back, and a little too late.
13:19No wrist locks.
13:20No hammer locks.
13:21No head locks.
13:22Only working on that left knee.
13:24He don't need wrist locks, hammer locks, when he does that.
13:27But believe me, he's got them if he needs them.
13:29My point is, the Cerebral Assassin has a strategy now.
13:33And that is to continue to damage the knee of Randy Orton.
13:38If Orton had an advantage in quickness and speed,
13:40he has lost it.
13:41Watch this.
13:43Watch that kneecap, that knee off, right to the canvas.
13:48Triple H is not wasting any motion here.
13:50He knows exactly what he's doing.
13:52No.
13:53No.
13:54No.
13:55He likes hurting people.
13:56He likes hurting people's feelings.
13:57He likes ruining moments.
13:58And ruining a moment like this for Randy Orton.
14:01Well, Randy Orton, come on.
14:03Randy Orton has a moment.
14:04I like Randy Orton.
14:05He's the next guy.
14:06And he had a moment early on.
14:07He said he looked good for a few minutes.
14:09He should be happy with that.
14:10He's hitting his left knee to post there.
14:13That's a very good angle.
14:15Watch it, Billy.
14:16Try to free himself any way he can here.
14:20And that leg of Hortons has turned to a really ugly angle.
14:24You really have to wait a second.
14:26And again, that knee dropped.
14:28He's driving his knee into the knee of Randy Orton.
14:31And Orton is damaged goods right now.
14:33I'd be lucky if he could even stand.
14:35Let's see if he's just stuck with evolution.
14:38He's dead.
14:39No.
14:40He's got it!
14:41Hortons got it!
14:42He's got it!
14:43He's got it!
14:44Oh!
14:45Counter went inside.
14:46And the King goes right back to the knee.
14:48Again, going right back to the knee.
14:51And now, Triple H with a picket that's off!
14:55You hear the woos in the crowd.
14:57That's right.
14:58Reminiscing of the legendary Clarence South.
15:01Come on!
15:02Tap out!
15:03Hortons being punished here.
15:05With that figure four leg lock.
15:07Hortons!
15:08Hortons!
15:09Hortons!
15:10Hortons seems to be...
15:11Hortons!
15:12Hortons!
15:13Hortons!
15:14Hortons!
15:15Hortons!
15:16Hortons!
15:17Hortons!
15:18Hortons!
15:19Hortons!
15:20Hortons!
15:21Hortons!
15:22Hortons!
15:23Hortons!
15:24Hortons!
15:25Hortons!
15:26Hortons!
15:27Hortons!
15:28Hortons!
15:29Hortons!
15:30Hortons!
15:31Hortons!
15:32Hortons!
15:33Hortons!
15:34Hortons!
15:35Hortons!
15:36Hortons!
15:37Hortons!
15:38Hortons!
15:39After a very fast offensive start, shoulders down.
15:43That's referee counting.
15:45They've got a two and a half.
15:48Goodwake's maintaining control.
15:50Just touching.
15:53Reaching, you see it there, so close.
15:56You gotta hold it, you can't touch it.
15:59Look at Goodwake, that's a small move.
16:01Bringing work back to the center of the ring.
16:04Now applying all the breaches once again.
16:06Tap, one tap.
16:08With that tap, Morton could tap and say I quit.
16:12But the bottom line here is that if Morton can't survive,
16:14I don't know that it can.
16:16Shoulders are down, the pain's gonna be riveting.
16:18Look out, and another near fall.
16:21I'll tell you something, the figure four is,
16:23at least to me anyway, I mean it's one of the most painful
16:26holds you can get in, that's when you've got two good legs.
16:30Morton with a damaged knee.
16:32Look at this.
16:33Two legs adding that insult to the injury now.
16:37Orton, that may have rejuvenated Randy Orton, Orton trying to reverse the pressure of the figure four.
16:44No, I think, I think Triple H may have out thought himself there, are they?
16:48Oh, outsmarted his own self.
16:50He got Orton fired up.
16:52Look out, no, no.
16:53And now Triple H has been punished.
16:55Orton without, it turns into almost a version of an Indian death block.
16:58Triple H quickly into the ropes, referees quickly break in the hole, but damage has been done to Orton,
17:05but Triple H's got a taste of it as well.
17:07Yeah, but a lot more damage done to Orton.
17:08Come on, game.
17:11Triple H trying to shake the feeling and the blow back in that leg, but Randy Orton has yet to regain his feet.
17:18Not sure that Orton can, and if he does, how effective will he be?
17:22He hasn't even tried to get back up on his feet.
17:24I don't think he's going to now.
17:25Oh, God.
17:27Triple H's driving, aggressively, viciously, his knee right into the leg of Randy Orton.
17:33And Orton is writhing there in pain.
17:35And Orton's leg break off that apron, and Randy Orton, it may be now just a later time until the referee either stops this match,
17:50or Orton is unable to contend, due to Orton's unable to continue.
17:55Oh, no!
17:56Oh, no!
17:57Oh, no!
17:58Oh, no!
17:59Oh, no!
18:00Oh, no!
18:01Carlos!
18:02Carlos, our status announced, D.
18:03I think Carlos took a cheap shot at Triple H there.
18:07What?
18:08Be careful.
18:09It's haz and cold down there.
18:11Maybe full airbags, huh?
18:13Triple H and now the referee will count Randy Orton.
18:19Orton's trying to get up, and he is still yet to get on his feet.
18:22Orton's still on his knees.
18:23Now he's up to one knee.
18:25That's the best Orton's been vertical.
18:27Orton's up.
18:28He's up.
18:29He's finally up.
18:30He's finally up.
18:31Oh!
18:32Out of desperation, it's that modified backbreaker of his.
18:34Well, that wasn't smart.
18:35That was dumb.
18:36He hurt himself even more.
18:38Maybe not, King.
18:39Maybe not.
18:40Orton shows a lot of confidence.
18:41Remember, he's only 24 years old.
18:43He believes he can.
18:44He knows he can.
18:45He's been there before.
18:46Can he do it tonight?
18:48Orton again, brought him back in this thing.
18:50You know, I guess at 24, you have tremendous recuperative powers.
18:53He started smiling like he did in the state.
18:55He can't complain that he gets on his feet.
18:57Now look at this.
18:58Downstairs, upstairs, downstairs.
19:00Body shots.
19:01Shots to the face.
19:02Come on, ref.
19:03Get in there.
19:04This is not apocalyptic.
19:05The war of the referee will stop it.
19:07Triple H couldn't defend himself.
19:09Reversal of the Irish win.
19:12Oh, no.
19:13Oh, no.
19:14Oh, no.
19:15Student netbreaker.
19:16Going for the cover.
19:17Going for the title.
19:18Hell.
19:19Got a near fall.
19:20Look for Earl have a good position there.
19:22And another.
19:23Modified netbreaker there.
19:24Horton again.
19:25With a leg.
19:26Horton up.
19:27Get out on the floor.
19:29Buy some time.
19:30The game's off his game right now.
19:32This is not good.
19:33Horton showing great resilience.
19:34And this time Horton said we went too early.
19:36There you go.
19:37And the game that he paid.
19:38Oh, look out.
19:39Power slam.
19:40The power slam.
19:41The hook.
19:42And Orton couldn't lock his hands on the hook of the leg.
19:47Triple H is able to kick out at the last moment.
19:49That was really close.
19:51World's Heavyweight Championship on the line here at the Royal Rumble.
19:55A capacity crowd from Fresno.
19:57A worldwide audience looking on.
19:59There you go.
20:00In front of the time and drop.
20:02And man, from that second row, you could only imagine the impact.
20:06The impact.
20:07Boy, just in time.
20:08Because as you saw, Orton was ready to start teeing off on the game with those big right
20:12hands.
20:13That was a cerebral move by the World's Heavyweight Champion.
20:17Certainly a seesaw matchup, ladies and gentlemen, for the World's Heavyweight title.
20:22The momentum has changed on several occasions.
20:25He sees you, he sees you.
20:26And this may not be the, well, maybe it is.
20:29Well, no, it's not.
20:30Oh, no.
20:31On track.
20:32Off the top.
20:33That was an arm grip.
20:34Off the top row.
20:35Triple H normally doesn't take those chances.
20:38And Orton looks like he's going to try to take a chance here.
20:41Well, it didn't work for Triple H, the World's Champion.
20:44Won't work for the Challenger.
20:45Come on, game.
20:46Get up, make him pay.
20:47This is a stupid thing for Orton to do.
20:49I can tell you that right now.
20:50Oh, crossbody.
20:51The crossbody.
20:52Will it be?
20:53Oh.
20:54Man, what a crossbody off the top.
20:57Orton thinks that was a three.
21:00Pretty damn close, wasn't it?
21:01That was an awesome crossbody off the top.
21:03Orton thought he had the three.
21:04Changing Ricky the bragging steamboat off the top rope.
21:07And, and that hook with a leg.
21:09Triple H barely, and I mean barely, folks.
21:11Able to kick out.
21:12The World's title is the second away from changing hands here.
21:16Wow, face buster.
21:18Oh, yes.
21:19Triple H for that face buster.
21:22A very unique and timely counter by the World's Heavyweight Tent.
21:26Pedigree time.
21:27Yes, it is pedigree time.
21:28Yes, it is pedigree time.
21:29Randy Orton's got a pedigree.
21:31He's gonna get a pedigree.
21:32There we go.
21:33Oh, counter.
21:34Pedigree countered.
21:35Catapult.
21:36And the game made some turnbuckle.
21:40Oh, no.
21:41Orton's ready.
21:43He's down, game.
21:44He's coming with the RKO.
21:45Got left count of the RKO for the third time in this match.
21:50Yeah.
21:51There you go.
21:52The hot hurley race knee right in the sternum of Randy Orton.
21:55Triple H taking Orton down.
21:57The champion with an arm over.
21:59That kills.
22:00The cover.
22:01Oh, and another near fall.
22:02This World's title match full of near falls from both men.
22:07And I'll tell you, a lot has been taken out of both of these great athletes.
22:11Get up.
22:12Get up.
22:13Get up, game.
22:14Who's gonna win this thing now, JR?
22:16As he fought through the pain and the difficulty of that knee and the ball, the bleeding from
22:22the mouth.
22:23That shot with Orton's lip, you can tell where it's busted open.
22:26I'll tell you what a seesaw battle.
22:27At first it looked like Orton had this thing well in hand, then the game took the momentum.
22:31I thought the game had it for sure.
22:33Now, yeah, it's anybody's game.
22:35Orton tasting his own blood.
22:36Come on.
22:37You gotta hit this.
22:38Orton Cedigre.
22:39Orton Cedigre can do it.
22:40Orton Cedigre will do it.
22:41The game looking for the three.
22:43Orton hit it.
22:44Oh!
22:45Orton terror!
22:46Clothesline!
22:47A big clothesline!
22:48A cover!
22:49No!
22:50Orton couldn't get chest a chest.
22:54That young, brash cockiness of Orton.
22:57Orton got all of it.
22:58I think he could have had it if he had a better pin there.
23:01Well, you know, if, if, if.
23:03He couldn't get it done.
23:05Orton couldn't get chest to chest.
23:07But Orton's gonna keep the momentum here.
23:09Orton not giving Triple H any time to regroup.
23:12I say that's a smart move from the number one contender.
23:16But he stepped up!
23:17The game's head bouncing off those steel steps.
23:19You can feel and see in this crowd here at Fresno.
23:22Can sense the momentum has changed drastically here.
23:25I can't believe that Earl Hebner, referee, our senior official,
23:28will let Orton go out there, run our world heavyweight champions head
23:31into those steel steps.
23:32Championship match, dammit.
23:34Well, you don't look, that's why you can't let that happen.
23:36Now, this is not the Australian Open.
23:37This is not Wimbledon.
23:39And a big ballet.
23:40Brides and less.
23:41And another right hand!
23:43Oh, that big right hand.
23:44And that may have done it right there.
23:46Triple H is gonna fall.
23:48He's gonna go down.
23:49Look at this!
23:51Orton is holding the game up!
23:53Orton won't let him fall!
23:54Orton is holding Triple H up!
23:56He's punishing the game!
23:57That is not right!
23:58Three thunderous right hands!
24:00Oh!
24:01Gordon going over to the DDT!
24:03Gordon was able to hook the ropes.
24:04Three blow passes once again.
24:06Gordon going over to DDT and man, he hit hard and so did the champion.
24:10Orton's mouth bleeding.
24:11Not moving.
24:12Gordon's eyes.
24:13His eyes are low.
24:14You see that again?
24:15That was a terrible assassin blocking this DDT.
24:16Watch.
24:17This could have been devastating.
24:18He'd hit this.
24:19But look at the last thing!
24:20So smart!
24:21I think Orton's head bounced right off the canvas.
24:23He may have a concussion here.
24:25That scrambled Orton's brains and I don't...
24:26I don't know if he knows where he's at.
24:27I don't know if he knows where he's at.
24:28What a far away look on his eye.
24:30Orton's head bouncing off that canvas.
24:31He's got those Krispy Kreme eyes.
24:32They're glazed over!
24:33He's history!
24:34Get up, Game!
24:35You got him!
24:36Orton having trouble standing his equilibrium.
24:37Shot to hell!
24:38Just counting out, referee!
24:39If only taking a long look.
24:41I'm ready!
24:42Come on, Andy!
24:43Come on, Andy!
24:44It's a lifetime!
24:45Randy!
24:46You're good!
24:47Randy!
24:48Randy!
24:49Randy!
24:50Get down, Randy!
24:52Get down!
24:53Randy!
24:54Randy!
24:55Randy!
24:56Get down...
24:57Randy!
24:58Randy!
24:59Randy!
25:00Randy!
25:01Randy!
25:02Randy!
25:03Randy!
25:04Randy!
25:05Randy!
25:06You can't, I'm gonna have to count you out. Come on. Get me here. Let's go, Randy. Come on.
25:14Come on.
25:15Good discretionary. Appreciate it by our senior official.
25:18What do you mean that's good discretionary? He should have already been good. I've never seen something like that in my life.
25:36Oh, two weeks. Mawling Orton and Orton running to the referee. I'll tell you what. The right finally prevails.
25:47Cook Lake's drilling Orton who subsequently smashed Earl Head for the referee.
25:52He'll show up on the head. Right on the back of the head of a man who's very easy to have a concussion.
25:57And if Orton didn't have a concussion before, by God he's got one now.
26:01One kick squarely, firmly, stifly in the back of the head. And what does the game do?
26:09Oh, my God. You got to be kidding me. Come on, the game.
26:14The damn sledgehammer.
26:17Orton, I don't, does he see? Is this Triple H? Is this Triple H telling you that he can't beat Orton in a wrestling match?
26:24No, here's Triple H telling you that he can't beat Orton in a wrestling match.
26:27What does Triple H need to sledgehammer? What does Triple H need to sledgehammer?
26:31I can't look into the future. I don't know what he's going to do with that sledgehammer.
26:34Orton's not even defending himself. I'm not even saying Orton can't even focus on the game.
26:39Orton can defend himself. Orton, I don't think Orton saves the champion.
26:45And this is such, so easy pick.
26:47Oh, no, no, no, no.
26:48Oh, no, no.
26:50Triple H's face first into the ring post.
26:53Triple H's face first into the ring post. He may have rubbed his nose there.
26:58Triple H's holding his waist.
26:59Orton was just fighting his time.
27:01He was loving the game in.
27:04Oh, that was instinctive.
27:05I don't think Orton had that thought in mind.
27:07I think you're right. I think Orton is still out.
27:11Orton is in another stratosphere.
27:14The referee is still down.
27:16Triple H's holding his face.
27:17He may have broken his nose.
27:19There's a sledgehammer in the ring.
27:21And the world title is on the line.
27:25Yeah.
27:25Orton is in no condition, in my view, to continue.
27:28What are we going to do well with him to try to get the referee to decide that?
27:32I don't think the referee's any condition to continue.
27:36It's so dangerous here.
27:37A man that very easily and probably has a concussion.
27:40I think he is focusing on that hammer.
27:46I think Orton sees that hammer.
27:48Rikki is down.
27:50I think maybe he sees two or three or four hammers.
27:54Pickle's on the one in the middle.
27:56I think he's got it.
27:57And the sledgehammer.
27:58Oh my God.
27:59What a close line.
28:00Jesus.
28:01What a thunderous close line.
28:04Right in the head of Randy Orton.
28:05And look at this kid's face.
28:07I am not liking the look in Randy Orton's face.
28:12He's 24 years old.
28:13He's pericking in right now.
28:14Watch and listen.
28:14Listen to this.
28:17Brother, you're talking about getting run over by a truck.
28:20Oh, you're right.
28:21They're pericking in.
28:22Enough is enough, gang.
28:23Enough is enough.
28:24He ended up getting a stir a little bit.
28:29And I don't know.
28:30He's got rid of the smoke and gun.
28:32I don't think he needs it.
28:33He doesn't need it.
28:33He realizes that.
28:36Orton's out.
28:37Orton is out.
28:38I don't know that Orton can defend himself whatsoever here.
28:42Well, Pickle's are picking Orton up.
28:44Dead weight.
28:44He's a no doubt dead weight.
28:47And here's the pedigree.
28:48The pedigree to a man with a confession.
28:52The game with a hook and a far leg.
28:54The referee's killed.
28:57And Tim Wright is still the world kid.
29:02It's the winner of this car.
29:04And still the world.
29:07And they win.
29:07There's a man of destiny in that ring right now.
29:10But it's the game.
29:13I had on my notes it was a pedigree versus the RKO.
29:17Orton never got to utilize the RKO.
29:19Oh, the game's in.
29:20I know you can't take me.
29:22The man Orton's going to need some medical attention.
29:25I haven't.
29:27I just don't have a good feeling about this.
29:30In more ways than one.
29:33Don't try to blame it on the sledgehammer.
29:35He never used a sledgehammer.
29:37I know.
29:37I'm aware of that.
29:38Don't you forget there's a place you can't pay.
29:41That was impressive.
29:42The game I want to play.
29:44Indeed it was.
29:46There's no doubt about it.
29:47If Randy Orton gave us everything he had.
29:51He had such a tremendous start.
29:54Offensively an awesome start to this match.
29:57You know, the sad thing was.
30:00I think what really did the damage was when Randy went for that DDT.
30:05He missed it.
30:06Bounced his own head off the bat.
30:07Puts him.
30:11The referee was asking Randy if he could continue.
30:15Randy reaching for the sledgehammer.
30:19I don't know how he focused on it.
30:21Orton barely able to stand it.
30:22Bam!
30:23Oh, that's impact.
30:25That was a slobber knocker.
30:27Of a close line.
30:28And then the dead weight of Randy Orton.
30:31Face first into the canvas.
30:33At that point it was academic.
30:36The 10th time world champion.
30:38Came in the man.
30:40Receiving the man.
30:44Well.
30:47Got to be concerned about the health of Randy Orton.
30:50Possibly concussion.
30:51But what about the game?
30:52The question is.
30:54Who will Triple H be facing?
30:56At Wrestlemania.
30:57That's the question I'm wondering now.
31:00A hell of a man.
31:02A hell of an effort.
31:04Triple H is still the channel.
31:05Well, he'll probably be facing whoever wins a run.
