00:04:19everybody joe tessitore and wade barrett as we welcome you to friday night smackdown we were
00:04:24very much still in the afterglow of saturday night's main event john cena's final match but
00:04:30tonight we shift our focus to cody rhodes now his match in washington dc last saturday night was
00:04:36truncated another attack by drew mcintyre but it didn't end there between cody and drew
00:04:42and we'll take a look at the explosive altercation that took place at drew mcintyre's home this past

00:05:08plus the wwe tag team championship match is coming your way solo sokoa he has put the champs
00:05:17on notice he says his mfts are ready to show the world how to capture gold the wyatt six the target
00:05:38so
00:05:47so
00:05:49so
00:05:57All rise to the other world!
00:06:27Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, Damian Priest!
00:06:36Wait, Damian Priest ongoing feud with Aleister Black, took a turn last week.
00:06:42Yeah, this was the main event of SmackDown last week.
00:06:46A very bad tempered mixed tag team match.
00:06:49Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest reminding the entire world why they are known
00:06:56as the Terra Twins with this double Razor's Edge connected on their opponents followed
00:07:04up with a riptide from Rhea bloody Ripley for a major victory against their long-time rivals.
00:07:12I'm gonna play down that riptide, whoo, Zelina up nearly over her head to deliver that.
00:07:23I think too many punk people would change places with Zelina and
00:07:28Aleister Black during that matchup, but let's see what's coming next for
00:07:32the publisher himself, Damian Priest.
00:07:40Hershey, Pennsylvania!
00:07:42It's nice to hear that energy, cuz I know the last few days weren't easy.
00:07:53Saturday night's main event, we were forced to say goodbye to the career of John Cena.
00:08:02I can't tell you how much I agree with that emotion, I really do.
00:08:07But I think I can speak for all of us when I say to someone who inspired so many,
00:08:14when I say to the man, without a shadow of a doubt, he is the greatest of all time.
00:08:25We say, thank you, Cena.
00:08:43Thank you, Cena.
00:08:47I feel that.
00:08:48Thank you for that.
00:08:50Now, let's talk about some good times.
00:08:54Good times, like last Friday night SmackDown, when Zelina and Aleister got their asses dropped
00:09:03by the Terror Twins.
00:09:08Yeah, that business has been handled.
00:09:09So now, we can look to 2026, and in 2026, I'm-
00:09:16Damian, you are such a hypocrite.
00:09:29You really think that getting your mommy to fight your battles for you makes you a real man?
00:09:36I'm-
00:09:39Newsflash, you didn't even get the pin.
00:09:42And you call that salvation?
00:09:47You just can't stand the fact that Aleister broke you.
00:09:52You made your decision, and now you have to live with ours.
00:10:01Or more importantly, his.
00:10:04Allister Black was behind Damian Priest, and he's beating him down.
00:10:19What a sneak attack.
00:10:20Aided and abetted by Zelina by the Punisher Damian Priest, fighting back.
00:10:27Fighting for his life at this point.
00:10:29Massive right hand delivered by Priest.
00:10:33Just when Damian Priest thought he put this to bed with Aleister Black and Zelina.
00:10:37They are back with a vengeance, but things have backfired.
00:10:41Just like last week.
00:10:41No, he's able to reverse onto the attempt for the Razor's Edge.
00:10:44Oh, big knee from Black.
00:10:47Muay Thai strikes of Aleister Black coming to the fort once again.
00:10:52This is one dangerous man, but caught in mid-air and driven south of heaven.
00:10:58On to the apron, south of heaven.
00:11:00Damian Priest, reaching under the ring.
00:11:18Nothing more they want to see than that.
00:11:21Damian Priest apparently looking to finish the Aleister Black problem off for good.
00:11:26And this might be one way to do it.
00:11:28Zelina looks hopelessly on.
00:11:33Black is back to his feet with a steel chair!
00:11:38Right across the back!
00:11:40The table just not cooperating with Damian Priest.
00:11:44Taking advantage briefly was Aleister Black.
00:11:48But here we go!
00:11:49No!
00:11:50Right into the post.
00:11:52Desperate struggle.
00:11:53Oh!
00:11:54These big kicks by Aleister Black.
00:11:56You know the damage they can do, Wade.
00:11:58Ground pass right to the temple of Damian Priest.
00:12:03Who still fights up from the death.
00:12:05Spinning back elbow from Black.
00:12:08Able to get out of that south of heaven attempt again.
00:12:10Now up on the apron.
00:12:11Absolute scramble this is.
00:12:13Oh my!
00:12:14The double knees off the apron right through the table.
00:12:24The damage done.
00:12:27Black himself reaching for his leg as Damian Priest threw the table.
00:12:36Think of that left Aleister Black in pain.
00:12:38Just imagine what it did to Damian Priest who got jumped tonight by Aleister Black and Zelina.
00:12:46Let's go backstage to Byron Saxe.
00:12:49This is your one moment to do it!
00:12:52Joe, Wade, thank you so much.
00:12:54I'm standing by with the pairing of Lash Legend and Nia Jax.
00:12:57Lash, I do want to start with you and deliver you your flowers and congratulate you on the
00:13:02upset victory over Ale...
00:13:03Well, uh, uh, uh, Skirt, what are you talking about?
00:13:06Upset Byron?
00:13:08She clearly beat Alexa Bliss Handily.
00:13:10Tell him, Lash.
00:13:11Exactly.
00:13:12And no matter how great little Lexi is, she didn't stand a chance against me.
00:13:18Because I was whipping her little tail all up and down that ring.
00:13:20Because that's what the bougie bully does.
00:13:22And now that we're done with Lexi and Charlotte, we're moving on.
00:13:27And once we annihilate the Kabuki Warriors, we are going to slide into that tag team championship
00:13:32match and become the new tag team champions.
00:13:36I should point out that Rhea Ripley and Io Sky do have an upcoming tag team title opportunity,
00:13:41so you may have to...
00:13:42Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, as you gotta point out...
00:13:46You're so annoying, Byron.
00:13:47It doesn't matter who all of a sudden wants to become best friends.
00:13:50Those tag team titles are ours.
00:13:52Right.
00:13:53Forget Rhea, forget the Kabukis, forget Charlexa.
00:13:56It's about the irresistible force and the bougie bully now.
00:13:59And we're coming after those tag team titles.
00:14:02Uh.
00:14:05Last night, I'm giving wrapping paper.
00:14:11A couple of Santa's little helpers right there.
00:14:13Well, here's a couple of ladies who don't help anybody but themselves.
00:14:17No, they don't.
00:14:18They are the women's tag team champions, Asuka and Kyrie Zane, the Kabuki Warriors.
00:14:31The Kabuki Warriors against Nia Jax and Lash Legend when we return to Friday Night SmackDown.
00:14:52Night SmackDown.
00:15:22Night SmackDown.
00:15:24No, no, no.
00:15:26Get back, get back!
00:15:27Get back, get back!
00:15:27Get back!
00:15:28Get back!
00:15:28Get back!
00:15:29Get back!
00:15:29That's enough!
00:15:31I overcommand!
00:15:32Go, no, no!
00:15:35Get back, get back!
00:15:36Let him do it right now.
00:15:38Let him do what he tells us to.
00:15:39Stay back!
00:15:39Get out of here.
00:15:40Stay back!
00:15:42It's time for you to end this, come on.
00:15:44Get back.
00:15:44Hey!
00:15:45Get back.
00:15:46Hey!
00:15:47Hey!
00:15:47Hey!
00:15:48Hey, stop.
00:15:48Don't do it!
00:15:49You want that?
00:15:50the kabuki warriors just a matter of days ago attack with ria and io again tonight a far
00:16:14different challenge french size of perhaps most intimidating new tag team in the division
00:16:20and your opponents the team of Lash Legends and
00:16:50Naya Jax instantly wait as dangerous a pairing as the women's division can have let's go back
00:16:59to last week yeah this is smackdown seven days ago Lash Legend taking on Alexa Bliss Alexa looking
00:17:07good that was until Jax got involved which triggered a huge brawl on the outside with
00:17:14Charlotte Flair who was then taken down by Lash Legend the power of Lash Legend proving too much
00:17:21took over and one Lash extension later the new powerhouse on the block scored the biggest
00:17:29singles win of her career Lash Legend the former college and pro basketball star she has been on
00:17:39a rocket ride of success and impressive outings in the ring so here are the former teammates from
00:17:46Survivor Series war games now opposite each other is everybody has eyes on those tag team championships
00:17:54Joe Tessitore and Wade Barrett filling in for Michael Cole and Corey Graves here on Smackdown
00:18:05not so long ago these four women teaming together inside of war games now of course all bets are off
00:18:15clearly Lash Legend and Naya Jax have an eye for the gold that belongs to the Kabuki warriors
00:18:23doing everything in their power to convince management to give themselves an opportunity
00:18:29at the gold a victory here of course will do them a massive favor with that argument
00:18:35Legend coming in looking for that big leg but instead gets chopped down from behind
00:18:39by Kairi Sane what's smart of Kairi Sane you simply cannot match power with someone like Lash
00:18:45Legend you have to try and outmaneuver her and outmaneuvering her Kairi Sane is at this point
00:18:51in the match now here's what she does best off the top rope oh but would you look at the strength
00:18:57and power of the former first team all SEC athlete Sane able to reverse it Legend trying to keep that
00:19:07body control brilliant wow oh what a nice pivot there from Lash Legend and trying to make no
00:19:14mistakes the second time around against Kairi Sane using power to advantage but denied once again
00:19:20through the veteran wiles of Kairi Sane highly beneficial in the early job it's all
00:19:26there's just no competing with that kind of timing and power from Lash Legend
00:19:34and with that tag it does not get any easier I mean and then just dragging her into position
00:19:40for Nadia Jax to squash in the corner oh and then Legend comes in as well
00:19:45completely dominant display this has been from these two superpowers shoulders down and Sane able to get
00:19:54out of position you're going to remember Lash and Jax were instrumental in the Kabuki Warriors
00:20:01winning gold from Flair and Bliss in the first place several weeks ago causing chaos at ringside during
00:20:07that showdown and clearly Lash and Jax feel their own a little something when it comes to that gold
00:20:14to earn that opportunity now perhaps the teamwork from Asuka and Kairi here's the lateral press cover from Asuka
00:20:22and Naya easily dismisses and denies that yeah taking the Kabuki Warriors lightly is a fool's errand in this game
00:20:30one of the most dominant female tag teams in history and this woman might be the greatest striker
00:20:36in women's combat history power of Naya Jax just not quite enough to stop Asuka in her stride
00:20:44oh that changed everything did it ever and was it effortless pop-up headbutt right to the sternum
00:20:51of the Empress of Tomorrow walks right into the big boot though opportunity for Asuka
00:20:56Aylin that lung blower completely rocking Naya Jax but Jax of course still on her feet
00:21:03might change now though double drop kick sends Naya Jax out of the ring
00:21:09this one breaking down in a hurry Lash legend trying her best to do something here
00:21:15referee being incredibly lenient here comes Asuka
00:21:19from an Empress impact to Kairi Sane up top
00:21:27out to the floor are you kidding me takes them both out Asuka and Kairi Sane look at her fly
00:21:38back to action here Asuka and Kairi Sane against Flash legend and Naya Jax
00:21:49let's take a look at what happened during the break and this is what turned the match around
00:21:55a few moments ago this tag that Kairi Sane was not aware of to Lash legend followed up by that
00:22:02pumpkin right to the jaw of the pirate princess who's not looked quite the same ever since
00:22:08and now ready to drop that hammer is the bougie bully
00:22:15and Lash legend is just a cheat code so big so strong so tough there's only one weakness
00:22:24and that's really the lack of experience at the very top level here but guess what you've got Naya Jax
00:22:29tagging with you and all the veteran experience of Jax is now getting passed on to Lash legend of course the
00:22:36early part of her athletic success was on the hard work he was a superstar at Texas A&M SEC basketball
00:22:43and then a first round draft pick into the WNBA before finding her home in WWE
00:22:50she's not going away some people are just too aggressive for a basketball court Joe
00:22:55and those people if they're tough enough they'll make their way to WWE and thank goodness Lash
00:23:01legend has really found her spot here on SmackDown she is explosive she is tough as Naya just dismisses
00:23:09Oscar from the apron the eye for talent that Naya Jax has she's not going to waste her time with people
00:23:15who simply won't cut it at this level she's been studying Lash legends movements in NXT for the past couple of years
00:23:22and pick the exact right spot to find out
00:23:27they go for that double suplex again and instead it's a double DDT by Kairi Sane what an opportunity Wade
00:23:34there it might be the issue with being so big and powerful you get a little overconfident
00:23:40against those on the roster who can't match your power but Kairi Sane pulling out a tag at the most
00:23:47vital moment and in comes Asuka here she is missile drop kick for two
00:23:54Asuka running in with that elbow and getting out of the way as legend smashes into Jax
00:24:06beautiful kicks from Asuka as she revs that offensive engine denies the Samoan drop
00:24:14and now the striking combination from one of the best to ever do it
00:24:17it would seem Naya Jax and Lash legend simply were not ready for Asuka oh it is locked in
00:24:27and somehow some way Naya Jax just powers her up
00:24:36trying to get out the back door oh missing the drop is Jax and instead Asuka delivers
00:24:44and the save by Lash legend incredible speed there from some of the size of Lash legend that
00:24:51it needed to be but that spinning back elbow completely rocking the bougie bully
00:25:02got her up top powering away out of it though is Lash legend and there is a shot to the jaw that
00:25:10changes the night of the kabuki warriors perhaps certainly Kairi Sane i think Asuka might have to
00:25:16do it on a right right into the post Asuka trying to rally here as best she can
00:25:22effectively be two on one there's only one kabuki warrior left standing although in the drop zone now
00:25:29is Naya Jax sensing it is Lash legend Lash legend getting pulled back down to the floor
00:25:36by Kairi Sane and now Naya Jax is going up top oh this is gonna be ugly for Asuka
00:25:45or is it would you look at Asuka there's the tag
00:25:54delivering and what a thought it was oh
00:25:57these two are not legal but the fight continues it's now down to Kairi Sane to try and win this for
00:26:04her team off the apron does damage i think Asuka caught a piece of that corner steel steps away
00:26:11recklessly right onto Lash legend but it did the job and now can Kairi Sane score the dub
00:26:18looking for that insane elbow oh but instead Naya meets her devastating chokeslam and now dragging the
00:26:29carcass of Kairi Sane into what may well be the end looking for the annihilator and delivering
00:26:36two three and just like that here are your winners the team of Lash legend and Naya
00:26:48Naya Jax while the tag champs the kabuki warriors have a date with Desi oh wait a
00:26:57minute got the celebrations
00:27:02Charlotte and Alexa heading straight to them the former tag champs have got major issues with
00:27:09all four of the women who are out here now focusing on the winners Jax and Lash legend
00:27:15look at Alexa taking it right to Lash legend a week ago you know exactly what happened when they
00:27:22met up with a mass brawl and of course the reason Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair no longer have the
00:27:29gold is in large part because of this duo they're now beating out of the ring look at the teamwork
00:27:38the 14-time world champion putting Lash legend right into that drop zone
00:27:44oh but Naya Jax clears her saving Lash legend from certain devastation issues between these four clearly not concluded
00:27:57they want those in their hands for good again
00:28:05as we go backstage to Jackie Redmond yeah test thank you so much it's already been
00:28:12quite an eventful start to friday night smackdown so without further ado please welcome my excuse me

00:33:30hey merry christmas ass
00:33:34Nick we just watched the footage from that uncomfortable altercation earlier on this week
00:33:49what do you make of how deeply personal things have gotten between Drew McIntyre and Cody Rhodes
00:33:54well the whole thing's gotten out of hand sacks I mean I'm having legal letters I'm hiring extra
00:33:58security Ava's pissed off because her champions big night got ruined and on top of all that
00:34:02Smackdown is still without one of its biggest stars yeah Drew I said it because while there's
00:34:06no love lost right now I tell it like it is and I have to tell it like it is when it comes to Cody
00:34:10because what he did was completely out of line but a lot of that is out of my hands because it
00:34:15didn't happen at a WWE event so it's up to local authorities what happens to Cody from here on
00:34:20out but I do plan on meeting with Cody to discuss everything and Drew has sent in some comments
00:34:24Mr. Aldis do you know why everyone was shocked at Saturday night's main event because he who
00:34:32should not be named ruined it and I want to match with him him oh you mean Carmelo Hayes no not
00:34:38Carmelo well you know I wouldn't mind getting my hands on Carmelo Hayes but no you know who I'm
00:34:43talking about I'm just kidding I know you mean Joe
00:34:45don't say his name you crazy but yes that guy I want to match next week on Smackdown you know
00:34:55what Miz that's actually a good idea let me give Ava a call and hopefully if she's calmed down some
00:34:59she'll see to it but you know in the meantime you could always just say his name
00:35:03I believe in Joe Pesci
00:35:10Nick he's just mad because I saw your British boss
00:35:19The following contest is scheduled for one call
00:35:43introducing person accompanied by Kiyama Chase from Tokyo Japan
00:35:50Julia
00:35:52The recent U.S. champ Julia as talented and capable as anybody on the roster
00:36:01Chelsea Green she wants her hands on but the next best thing is opposite her in moments
00:36:08Alba Fire that is next Julia and Alba Fire on Friday Night Smackdown
00:36:16For the former women's U.S. champ Julia in the ring now flanked by her official representative
00:36:34Kiyama James not sat well with her that she lost the goal to Chelsea Green several weeks back and
00:36:42clearly on a mission now to try and get back to said goal
00:36:46But if you want to find a pathway to the U.S. champ Chelsea Green first things first you've got to get past the secret
00:36:55Hermes and that is easier said than done this is a Alba Fire who is a mean nasty Scottish veteran
00:37:02veteran you know I think it's interesting to see Julia's disposition here Wade because you always wonder when it's your first match since losing a championship
00:37:10that is the case here and that's exactly what you could sense coming just coming right out on the attack because this is her first match since November 7th when she dropped the women's United States championship
00:37:24She's very unhappy about how she lost that championship feels like she was screwed out of the title which a major chicanery from Chelsea Green and her cohorts
00:37:36It looks like payback is now being exacted on Alba Fire
00:37:42Well she has proven herself in spots like this she has not lost back-to-back singles matches since being on the main roster when she joined the main roster earlier this year and she has a certain time
00:37:52I mean she is coming out red hot here as Julia
00:37:55Yeah absolutely unglued and of course highly motivated by the screechings of Chelsea Green
00:38:03Honestly I forgot what it's like to call a match when she's anywhere either in the ring or outside the ring and what it does to the eardrums
00:38:11We need to get her on the desk
00:38:13Never please
00:38:14Someone to talk some sense please
00:38:15Never mute button only
00:38:16Julia really needs to try her best to keep her focus on one person here try if possible to ignore Chelsea Green on the outside as tough as that may be
00:38:29Focus fully on Alba Fire you've got the upper hand you have to make it count
00:38:33Well that's tough let's see that's exactly the problem
00:38:36She keeps looking over that way and with it Alba Fire takes advantage
00:38:40And those are the results of the problem you simply cannot do that against someone the caliber of Alba Fire
00:38:48Alba Fire is so skilled in her own right
00:38:51There you go DDT and boy look at the impact it had on Julia
00:38:57We make a lot of talk about how Julia really was such a dominant champion in Japan before she headed over to the US and got involved with NXT and of course now SmackDown
00:39:07The same could be said of Alba Fire who was
00:39:15Almost ripped a giant chunk out of the hair of Alba Fire there
00:39:19Alba Fire completely reeling at this point
00:39:21This is a highly enraged beautiful madness
00:39:24There's nothing beautiful about this but there's certainly a ton of madness on display
00:39:29Madness and fury and this could be a short night for Alba Fire but too much left in the tank
00:39:35Able to get out of the way of that right hand
00:39:37And now you see Julia getting a look just stretching out Alba Fire
00:39:41Nice abdominal stretching
00:39:43Agony etched all over the face of Alba Fire now compounding that damage
00:39:48Those hammer elbows right into the pinning combination and then reverse this time
00:39:52But Alba Fire look at them going round and round
00:39:55Shoulders are down
00:39:56Two technical wizards in that ring going hole for hole but completely rock now as Alba Fire
00:40:02And if Julia can pick up the pace or pick up the punishment a win could be imminent here
00:40:08Of course Chelsea Green is having to watch all of this go down
00:40:14Fire able to escape
00:40:16Delivers the kick and arching back and falling is Julia and this could be over right here
00:40:24The lateral press but the kick out
00:40:25Nice pin right across the shoulders of Julia just too much left in the tank of the beautiful madness
00:40:31But for how much longer?
00:40:32Oh!
00:40:33Perhaps going back to the face buster but reversed
00:40:37Oh!
00:40:39Oh!
00:40:40Oh!
00:40:41Arrivederci!
00:40:42That Arrivederci knee you know the damage it can do
00:40:45Julia putting a little something extra into it
00:40:51To end it right here
00:40:55One, two, three
00:40:56As she stares at Chelsea Green and doing it
00:40:59Here is your winner
00:41:03Julia!
00:41:06A physical message viscerally received by the United States champ Chelsea Green
00:41:14Julia wants her goal back
00:41:17Her first match since losing the Women's United States Championship
00:41:23A statement made right in front of Chelsea Green
00:41:28Oh!
00:41:30Green ends up on her backside Wayne
00:41:33Don't help her up
00:41:34Women help her up
00:41:35Is the first lady of professional wrestling Joe?
00:41:38Be a gentleman
00:41:42Cody Rhodes is making his way here
00:41:46The American Nightmare joins us live
00:41:50The Undisputed Champ
00:41:52Now
00:41:53Listen closely Solo

00:42:13The truth lies beneath the surface
00:42:14And this image you portray is going to catapult your family into a whole new world
00:42:30New world
00:42:32A world filled with adversity
00:42:36And abandoned nickel
00:42:38There will be nowhere for you to run
00:42:43Solo
00:42:45Tonight you begin your journey
00:42:49A journey that will force you and your family
00:42:54To surrender
00:42:58To surrender
00:43:00Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha!
00:43:14well, Jim
00:43:29Let's go.
00:43:59Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the undisputed WWE Champion,
00:44:12The American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes.
00:44:20Wade, it has been a roller coaster of a week for Cody Rhodes,
00:44:23and it all began with that match in Washington, D.C., against one of the next great ones.
00:44:28Yeah, Saturday night's main event, NXT champ, Obafemi looking incredible against WWE champ,
00:44:34Cody Rhodes, but Cody showing us all what he's QB1 in the industry.
00:44:39What a match this was until it was ruined by Drew McIntyre,
00:44:44attacking his arch rival until Obafemi got involved too.
00:44:50But Oba and Cody combined to drop the Scottish Warrior.
00:44:57This is with Drew and Cody are clearly a long, long way from being over.
00:45:02Of course, all the emotion with John Cena's last match for Cody too.
00:45:17What an incredible way he honored Cena, carried that emotion even onto the post-show afterwards.
00:45:23Now, all the drama with Drew McIntyre.
00:45:28Home invasion, uncharacteristic and I would say unbecoming of a WWE Champion.
00:45:36I agree. I question the mental state of Cody Rhodes right now.
00:45:39Clearly, Drew McIntyre firmly under the skin of the champ.
00:45:43That's how far this thing has gone.
00:45:45Now, I am the king and you're the king and I know I'm here.
00:45:50.
00:45:52.
00:45:58Hershey P.A.
00:46:11What do you want to talk about?
00:46:20Okay, did I go to Drew McIntyre's home?
00:46:26Did a member of law enforcement get thrown into the water?
00:46:29Did things get physical?
00:46:30Yes.
00:46:34But Drew McIntyre has stated that WWE currently is an unsafe working environment.
00:46:48That's all of you.
00:46:50He said that we collectively are an unsafe working environment.
00:47:00So Drew, you are surrounded by MMA stars, second generation wrestlers, NIL,
00:47:06college and pro athletes.
00:47:09What would be a safe environment for you?
00:47:12Staples?
00:47:16And besides, that little yard brawl was one tenth of what should happen right here,
00:47:22right now, with me and Drew McIntyre in this very ring.
00:47:26Cody, I don't think you appreciate the situation you've got yourself into.
00:47:36Or me, or the company, actually.
00:47:39See, Drew is claiming an unsafe work environment.
00:47:43And you and I know that that's a load of crap.
00:47:47But the problem is, is when you showed up at his house and started a brawl,
00:47:52you made his point for him.
00:47:55And to make things worse, I had to make a bad deal.
00:48:00Because you made me look like a liar.
00:48:06So I'm telling you this is your friend.
00:48:09Yes, you're the champ.
00:48:11QB won.
00:48:13But you're not above the law.
00:48:15And I can't help you with that one.
00:48:18Cody, you should have trusted me to get this thing over the finish line.
00:48:25But you didn't.
00:48:27So now, when Drew comes back,
00:48:31if he pays the fine and makes that public apology to Dan Engler.
00:48:36Cody, you can't lay a finger on Drew McIntyre.
00:48:49Or what?
00:48:50Nick, or what?
00:48:54Or I have to strip you of the WWE Championship.
00:48:59You want me to acquiesce to that demand and your demand?
00:49:12Okay, I can guarantee you that I will not touch Drew McIntyre.
00:49:18But in the spirit of all these demands, I should ask you something.
00:49:29I feel like, Nick, I feel like you've forgotten who you're talking to.
00:49:36Right?
00:49:37Ask our mutual friend Wade Barrett right there who you're talking to.
00:49:42Ask Marty on the camera who you're talking to.
00:49:45You should say my name because you know it.
00:49:48I'm the one who sent the tweet that changed the game.
00:49:51I'm the one who came back here and run the Royal Rumble not once but twice.
00:49:55I am the reigning king of the ring.
00:49:58I unseated the tribal chief Roman Reigns and I even defeated the greatest of all time,
00:50:04John Cena for this title.
00:50:06I'm QB1, damn it.
00:50:13And here you are saying that I'm not above the law as long as I have this title.
00:50:18I am the law.
00:50:23Mr. Aldis, my friend, your demand, his demand.
00:50:28Remember one thing while I am holding this.
00:50:31I don't work for you.
00:50:33I work for them.
00:50:38And you, my friend, you work for me.
00:50:49Cody Rhodes is one bad, bad dude.
00:50:53Never forget that, Nick Aldis, QB1, and the WWE champ,
00:50:58the man who changed the game.
00:51:01Hey, listen, Melo.
00:51:10I'm not usually the type of person who settles for others.
00:51:13Like, being the United States champion, usually people come out and settle for me, but...
00:51:18After what you did for me last week, I just wanted to say...
00:51:22Thank you. Thank you. Really.
00:51:25Look, don't even mention it.
00:51:27Tommaso screwed me out of that championship, so I had to go and get it back in blood.
00:51:30The issue with Johnny Gargano, he just happened to be collateral.
00:51:33Plus, all that jumping people from behind, you know I don't play that.
00:51:36Nah. Not anymore.
00:51:38Not anymore.
00:51:39Not anymore.
00:51:40But listen, tonight, we fight DIY in that ring.
00:51:44And tonight, we put them down.
00:51:47Hello, boys.
00:51:48Well, we just wanted to wish you good luck tonight, but do us a favor, okay? Save some for us.
00:51:56Yeah, we kind of wanted DIY ourselves, but...
00:51:59I don't know, I guess you guys jumped the queue or something.
00:52:02What we're saying is that they stole my mask, and they need to pay for it.
00:52:06Oh, okay, okay, okay.
00:52:07Look, you're talking to the wrong two guys.
00:52:09Uh, we got our own backs, and we won't miss.
00:52:12Well, in case you guys do miss, we'll be there.
00:52:17Okay, listen, gentlemen.
00:52:19DIY asked for this battle.
00:52:21And if they ask for a battle, they will get a battle.
00:52:24And especially after last week when Champa made me bleed,
00:52:27he is not just a jackass anymore.
00:52:30Now, he is my prey!
00:52:36So, let's go.
00:52:37Let's go.
00:52:39Suerte.
00:52:42What does that mean?
00:52:43I love my prey.
00:52:45Let's go.
00:52:47D, O, one!
00:52:51One, two, three, four, four!
00:52:55Let's go!
00:53:07He is a tag-team match!
00:53:10Hit Em For One Call!
00:53:12Introducing the company by Candice LeRae, the team of Johnny Gargano, and Tommaso Ciampa, D-I-Y.
00:53:28The two-time WWE Tag Team Champion.
00:53:33Ciampa and Gargano, against Ilya Dragunov, and Carmelo Hayes, coming your way out.
00:54:03Ciampa and Gargano, with Candice LeRae, focused and ready for what should be a great match opposite opponents who definitely want a piece of them.
00:54:33And their opponents, the team of...
00:55:03Carmelo Hayes and the United States Champion, Ilya Dragunov.
00:55:13Well, the Matt Dragonweight has kept up the great standards of the US Championship
00:55:18and being a fighting champion, but thank goodness Carmelo Hayes was nearby a week ago.
00:55:22Yeah, this was last week on SmackDown,
00:55:25Jampa taking on Ilya Dragunov for the United States Championship.
00:55:30Lot of extracurriculars on the outside, but it was an absolute war inside the ring
00:55:35with Ilya Dragunov, the champ, managing to pull out a win with this very quick pin against Ciampa.
00:55:43But hold the celebrations, guys, because DIY were rather unhappy with the result.
00:55:50But thankfully for Dragunov, another victim of DIYs came out to lend a hand in Carmelo Hayes,
00:55:57evening the odds, and this has led us to tonight.
00:56:00And I'm the best hit, you watch your side, well, I guess you wait till next time.
00:56:06All right to action, not wasting any time.
00:56:08One, two, three.
00:56:11A great hand after right hand from Carmelo Hayes against Johnny Gargano.
00:56:15Well, Hayes and Dragunov just know this duo only too well and were fully aware.
00:56:20There was likely to be a cheap shot start.
00:56:23They were lying in wait, ready for it, and it's backfired badly now on DIY.
00:56:28What momentum that was created that time, and now Dragunov comes in with a knee.
00:56:34It is nonstop against Ciampa.
00:56:36Dragunov, a man who doesn't normally like to team with other people.
00:56:42However, he gained a major appreciation for the abilities and the respect that Carmelo Hayes,
00:56:47a couple of weeks ago in their United States Championship clash.
00:56:51I'll say this about Ilya Dragunov.
00:56:54He is perhaps the most fightingest of fighting champs I've ever seen, insisting
00:57:00he goes to war every single week.
00:57:03I love it.
00:57:03It has been awesome to watch what he has done with his title reign.
00:57:08We saw him against Ciampa recently.
00:57:10Ciampa who campaigned for weeks and weeks to get that opportunity.
00:57:17Highly distraught that it went begging thanks to the skills of Ilya Dragunov.
00:57:22Now looking to take out some revenge this week, but it's not going well.
00:57:26No, it isn't.
00:57:32Hayes revving that engine and delivering with the leg drop.
00:57:35He hooks the leg in the cover and quickly Ciampa out of it.
00:57:39Of course, Carmelo Hayes did a hell of a job in his match against Ilya Dragunov,
00:57:43but close to winning the thing that was until involvement from Tommaso Ciampa,
00:57:47which Ilya Dragunov didn't actually see, but it helped Ilya Dragunov end up winning the match.
00:57:53Now, the aftermath of that, of course, Ilya was kind of disgusting that he won it in such a way.
00:57:59So maybe at some point, Carmelo Hayes and Dragunov will meet again.
00:58:03I know the world would love that, but for now, business to take care of in the form of DIY.
00:58:08Yeah, that was back on December 5th.
00:58:10And as you mentioned, it goes against the grain of everything he is.
00:58:14Hold on, hold on.
00:58:14As soon as our official's back was turned, Johnny Gargano up on the apron to tear him down.
00:58:21Oh, no!
00:58:22That is just a DIY way as the jaw of Ilya Dragunov, man, just shattered against our desk.
00:58:34Let's go.
00:58:35Let's go.
00:58:36Let's go.
00:58:36Let's go.
00:58:37Let's go.
00:58:38Pat yourself on the back, DIY.
00:58:47Wade in for Michael Cole and Corey Graves.
00:58:49And it has been all DIY ever since Candice LeRae got involved and they've been putting a stomping
00:59:15on Ilya Dragunov ever since.
00:59:17But Ilya Dragunov finally showing some signs of life.
00:59:22Is he ever Constantine Special Dragunov?
00:59:27Does he have enough left in the tank to get this tag to a fresh Carmelo Hayes so Carmelo
00:59:33Hayes can show the world why he is him?
00:59:37Hayes is ready to explode.
00:59:40Here he comes after Gargano and delivers to Ciampa.
00:59:46What a chop.
00:59:47Backs him up to the ropes.
00:59:50Oh, man, oh, man, springboard.
00:59:54Like a cat.
00:59:56Would you look at this from Hayes?
00:59:58La Mystica.
00:59:59One, two, three, four.
01:00:01I'm gonna tell you something, the movement of Carmelo Hayes is just governed by a different set of rules to everyone else on planet Earth.
01:00:08Oh, my God.
01:00:09Yeah, there is no gravity.
01:00:10Sticks the landing, too.
01:00:13Meanwhile, the Mad Dragon.
01:00:18Massive sent on off the top.
01:00:20To put it away.
01:00:23That high-flying senton after everything Carmelo Hayes did.
01:00:28Check this action out.
01:00:30Carmelo Hayes taking out Ciampa and sticking the landing.
01:00:34And then this sky-high senton from the top rope right to the midsection of Gargano.
01:00:40Not quite enough to put away DIY, but you feel that is getting closer and closer.
01:00:48What an amazing powers of recovery here from the Mad Dragon.
01:00:51Shows exactly why he is an almost unbeatable United States champ at times.
01:00:57With a tag there.
01:00:57I don't think Gargano saw it.
01:00:59Hayes.
01:01:00Out of the way is Johnny.
01:01:03Oh, they got him in a compromised position in that corner.
01:01:06And a super kick.
01:01:07And now DIY gains some momentum.
01:01:11Do they ever.
01:01:12Right mistake there from Carmelo Hayes.
01:01:16Oh, nasty, nasty landing there.
01:01:19Project Ciampa.
01:01:20Off the Project Ciampa right into the cover.
01:01:22And meanwhile, the Mad Dragon saves it.
01:01:24That powerbomb onto the knees is something that Project Ciampa.
01:01:28Time and again, we've seen the success he has with it.
01:01:30It's a match winner, if not really a dragon off.
01:01:33And now this one's spilling out all over the place.
01:01:35Oh, right into the post.
01:01:36And it's Ciampa and Hayes who are legal.
01:01:39And Ciampa now going in for the kill.
01:01:41He takes down that knee pad.
01:01:43But Carmelo Hayes, smart enough to see it coming.
01:01:52Oh, Candice LeRae.
01:01:54Again, LeRae in full behind the referee's back.
01:01:57And there's a KO blow to the temple.
01:01:59This could be over because of that.
01:02:02Hayes able to get the shoulder up.
01:02:05And Ciampa's in complete disbelief.
01:02:08With Dragunov down, Dragunov may be out.
01:02:11But now the double whammy.
01:02:14Fairy Tail ending right here.
01:02:19He survives it again.
01:02:20Again.
01:02:21Talk about the toughness of Carmelo Hayes.
01:02:24That move has put so many away.
01:02:26But now I've got a feeling this might be the ending.
01:02:29Right in the middle.
01:02:31This will be over right here from DIY, Wade.
01:02:36Slow down.
01:02:37Oh, no, Dragunov.
01:02:39How about at first 48?
01:02:43This one twisting back and forth.
01:02:45Such movement.
01:02:47So many swings.
01:02:49H-Bomb delivered the Mad Dragon.
01:02:52But they're not done yet.
01:03:00Nothing but net as big as he could go.
01:03:04One, two, three.
01:03:09Here are your winners.
01:03:11The team of Carmelo Hayes and the United States Champion, Ilya Dragunov.
01:03:24Well, instant chemistry from these two victors against a veteran tag team.
01:03:29We've been together over 10 years.
01:03:31It needed a mind-blowing performance.
01:03:34And we got it.
01:03:35And glorious victory for Ilya Dragunov and Carmelo Hayes.
01:03:44Excuse me, Alexa, Charlotte.
01:03:46Can I get a comment on why you guys attacked Nia Jax and Lash Legend earlier tonight?
01:03:51I mean, what message are you trying to send?
01:03:53The message that if you look too far in the future,
01:03:56you tend to forget who's standing right in front of you.
01:03:58Now, Rhea and Io have a tag team title match on January 5th.
01:04:01And I'm sure Lash and Nia, I think that they're next in line.
01:04:03But they're not.
01:04:04They're in our way.
01:04:05And whoever wins the tag team championships will be waiting.
01:04:09Okay, thank you.
01:04:18Actually, Jade.
01:04:19Jade.
01:04:21Since you're here, is there anything you'd like to say about attacking Meechan last week
01:04:25on SmackDown?
01:04:26It's okay.
01:04:27It's the season.
01:04:28So I guess I'll say something nice.
01:04:31I was shocked to see Meechan get back up after I knocked her down.
01:04:35Now, she and the rest, they gonna take these Ls.
01:04:39Now, I'm big on charity, so I'm gonna give her a little spotlight.
01:04:43And then, I'm gonna knock her lights out.
01:04:46Now, we done?
01:04:48Yeah.
01:04:51I'm gonna get a seat.
01:04:52It seems like you forgot.
01:04:53Let me remind you.
01:04:54What are you doing?
01:04:56Get back home.
01:04:57Get back home.
01:04:59Get back home.
01:05:00Get back home.
01:05:01Get back home.
01:05:02Get back home.
01:05:03Get back home.
01:05:03Get back home.
01:05:05Get back home.
01:05:06Get back home.
01:05:07Get back home.
01:05:08Hey, are you all right?
01:05:13Still to come, the WWE Tag Team Championship match.
01:05:18The Wyatt Six and the MFT's Solo Sokoa has made his statement.
01:05:25Can they deliver?
01:05:27We find out on Friday Night SmackDown.
01:05:34A reminder, when the new year starts, you get even more Friday Night SmackDown.
01:05:39SmackDown will move to three hours starting on January 2nd.
01:05:43Let's tell you what you're in store for on next week's Friday Night SmackDown.
01:05:48We just saw him perform in tag action.
01:05:51He never gets a week off, but that is how he likes it.
01:05:54The United States Championship will be on the line in an open challenge
01:05:59as Ilya Dragunov defends against, well, we'll find out next week.
01:06:04And just say his name after all the controversy with The Miz and what happened in the last time
01:06:10is now tournament, it's a battle between Joe Hendry and The Miz, we all believe.
01:06:17And of course, the Scottish psychopath himself, a victim of a home invasion from WWE champ,
01:06:25Cody Rhodes, post suspension, Drew McIntyre returns to SmackDown next week.
01:06:32Howdy. You talk a whole lot of nonsense about absolutely nothing.
01:06:43But when you threaten my family, that's when we got a problem.
01:06:48You think this is a game, huh? When it comes to my family, I don't play no damn games.
01:06:53You understand me? We are going to humiliate you, embarrass you in front of the whole wide world.
01:07:00Wait, you hear that? Can you hear that? The fireflies are here.
01:07:14And they are going to watch us take those tag team titles.
01:07:20Because whether they like it or not, I've got the whole world
01:07:26in my hands, he's got the whole world in his hands, in my hands.
01:07:43Well, that is one way to get under the skin of Uncle Howdy and the Wyatt Six.
01:07:49But it's something Solo Sekoua does better than anyone.
01:07:54Does he ever.
01:07:55The following content is scheduled for one call, and it's called the WWE Tag Team.
01:08:17The WWE Tag Team Championship.
01:08:22Introducing the challenger, accompanied by Solo Sekoua, the MMT.
01:08:34Look at that face of Solo Sekoua.
01:08:37I draw the note.
01:08:38Strong message delivers a Uncle Howdy and the Wyatt Six.
01:08:43The WWE Tag Team Championship match is next.
01:08:49I am controlling the cage.
01:08:56A tomorrow night, Triple A, Guerra de Titanis.
01:09:04It will be streaming live, 9 p.m. Eastern, 6 Pacific, on WWE's YouTube channel.
01:09:10And WWE Espanol, Dominic Mysterio will be in action.
01:09:14El Grande, Americano, Dragon Lee, and many more.
01:09:18The best at Triple A.
01:09:20Tomorrow might not come for one of the two teams we have in action,
01:09:24because it looks like the MFTs are ready for war.
01:09:28...
01:09:38...
01:09:46Keep it all away
01:09:50When things break, things shatter
01:09:54Keep it within all your face
01:09:59The little details matter
01:10:02I'll be back
01:10:04I'll be back
01:10:08I'll be back
01:10:12I'll be back
01:10:16I'll be back
01:10:46Uncle Howdy and the Wyatt Six have heard everything that Solo Sokoa has said.
01:10:53Dexter Loomis and Joe Gacy with those belts in hand.
01:10:57Gold on the line here on SmackDown.
01:11:02What a war of words for months now.
01:11:05Joe attempts at intimidation from both sides.
01:11:09Finally, a rather ungentlemanly agreement for this championship opportunity.
01:11:14And of course, the Wyatts targeted Solo Sokoa and the MFTs several months back.
01:11:21Unimpressed with how Solo Sokoa treats his family.
01:11:26Solo Sokoa didn't particularly like his original family, so he traded them in for the MFTs.
01:11:32Got himself a new one, and these MFTs are a majorly dangerous unit in every way.
01:11:39Needs a couple of right uppercuts as Loomis stalks his prey.
01:11:45Watch out, watch out.
01:11:49Neatness of Dexter Loomis.
01:11:50That's one word to use.
01:11:51Yeah, that's a euphemism for a lot of other things we could say, isn't it?
01:11:54But as odd as he is, as unnerving as he is, he's utterly devastating in that ring.
01:12:02Jumps back with the leg drop and quickly tried to hook the leg and end things early here.
01:12:07Don't be thrown by the oddness of the Wyatt Six in that ring.
01:12:12They are technically astute.
01:12:14Joe Gacy a major powerhouse in his own right.
01:12:17Happy to put his body on the line in pursuit of victory for a hardcore style of wrestler.
01:12:25Just a good brawl.
01:12:26He's going to get that and more tonight from Tonga Loa.
01:12:29And of course, his other partner tonight, JC Mateo.
01:12:37And JC Mateo, the powerhouse, is now into some action of his own.
01:12:43JC Mateo might be the most trusted soldier of Solo Sokoa's.
01:12:50He was the first piece of Solo Sokoa's rebuild when he put this MFT unit together.
01:12:56And he's been utterly devastating ever since.
01:12:58Just a ball of muscles.
01:13:01They're getting outmaneuvered now by Joe Gacy.
01:13:03Gacy delivers the drop kick and now tags Dexter Loomis.
01:13:07Let's see the teamwork from the Wyatt Six in action here.
01:13:09To show exactly why they are the tag team champions.
01:13:14That's what you get with Loomis and Gacy.
01:13:17And the senton as he comes off the ropes.
01:13:21Lateral press in the hook of the leg.
01:13:23And rolling out to safety is JC Mateo.
01:13:27Having time to talk a little tactics on the outside here.
01:13:31As Solo Sokoa has made himself comfortable.
01:13:33And we're still outshadowed by the massive presence of Talon Tonga.
01:13:39Every time I look to my left here, I'm always a little concerned about his ringside.
01:13:45Mateo just able to get out of the way as Joe Gacy was charging.
01:13:49Man!
01:13:50Giant arm of Tonga Loa clubbing across the face.
01:13:57God.
01:13:57Look at this, look at the power, right into the post and
01:14:03then throws him down to the floor.
01:14:04Way to break someone's spine.
01:14:07JC Mateo.
01:14:09Look at you stupid, huh?
01:14:10That's what I'm talking about.
01:14:11The imposing Tonga Loa taking advantage here.
01:14:18WWE Tag Team Championship match.
01:14:20Solo Sokoa has put forth his MFTs.
01:14:24He says they have walked in ready for war.
01:14:26They're gonna walk out as the new champions over the Wyatt Six.
01:14:31And their respective units are looking on.
01:14:34Could be right here.
01:14:35Hopefully or in desperation in the case of the Wyatt Six as the Tag Team
01:14:40Championships hang in the balance here.
01:14:43But they are undeniably moving closer and closer to the coaches of the MFTs.
01:14:49Who've looked completely dominant since getting the upper hand.
01:14:52I just glanced over what we saw, that moment, Uncle Howdy, the concern on his face.
01:14:56Big Eric Rowan and Nikki Cross.
01:14:58Because in the ring right now, Dexter Loomis over in that corner.
01:15:02He cannot escape Loa and JC Mateo.
01:15:05I can't imagine either of these sides either going back to Uncle Howdy or to Solo Sokoa
01:15:11having disappointed them in this match.
01:15:13Both teams know they better win this thing.
01:15:16Solo Sokoa has been very outspoken.
01:15:20Directing those messages straight to Uncle Howdy.
01:15:23The message is clear.
01:15:25The entire mentality of the MFTs is the acquisition of every single piece of gold here on SmackDown.
01:15:34Well, this could be the first piece of the puzzle.
01:15:36Slam and right to the cover, Matteo.
01:15:40And now he hooks the leg but can't capture gold.
01:15:45You can see the frustration on his face for a moment there as back to work he goes.
01:15:49Matteo is just a human battering ram.
01:15:52And right now the body of Dexter Loomis has taken a devastating battering over the past several minutes.
01:15:59But it does not get easier when the massive Tonga Loa gets in there.
01:16:05Nothing technical, nothing pretty about Tonga Loa.
01:16:08More likely to rip your eyeballs out than a player.
01:16:11Technical hold.
01:16:12Caving the rim cage of Dexter Loomis.
01:16:16Absolutely.
01:16:17And they are coming closer and closer to capturing the tag team championships.
01:16:23Tonga Loa is getting closer and closer to becoming unglued with frustration.
01:16:27He knows full well there should be these clutches by now.
01:16:31But taking a beat too long to do anything about it and getting tagged on the jaw.
01:16:35Well he gets dragged back by the waist as he was just about to get to Joe Gacy.
01:16:41Look how nimble Dexter Loomis is.
01:16:44Finishing up with that super kick to the jaw of J.C. Matteo.
01:16:48Boy oh boy do they need this tag.
01:16:51Here he comes, Joe Gacy.
01:16:54Well that lunatic Nikki Cross is running around the outside of the ring too.
01:16:58I'll try and focus on the match.
01:16:59Look at Gacy.
01:17:00Rallying back to Wyatt Six.
01:17:03Look at what he's able to do to Matteo.
01:17:06Giving the suplex specialist a taste of his own medicine.
01:17:11Massive right hand from Gacy.
01:17:16And showing you just enough power and grit.
01:17:20Oh but cannot retain right there.
01:17:22Stalling Saito suplex against a man the size of J.C.
01:17:27What the hell?
01:17:29Getting out of the way was J.C. Matteo off that springboard
01:17:32Attempt.
01:17:33Oh.
01:17:35And this could be it for Gold right here.
01:17:38Getting that left shoulder up.
01:17:40So much talk in that side suplex from J.C. Matteo the former Olympian.
01:17:45Gacy at his best.
01:17:47Unfeasible athleticism from Joe Gacy.
01:17:54And now he's about to take two, Tangaloa.
01:17:56Tangaloa gets some.
01:17:58Joe Gacy, one man showing it right now.
01:18:02You can't judge a buck by its cover when it comes to Joe Gacy.
01:18:06This guy can do some crazy stuff.
01:18:08Like that.
01:18:10Throwing his body on the line.
01:18:13Taking out two men in one go.
01:18:15And perhaps giving the opportunity for the Wyatt Six to finish this thing for good.
01:18:20And now everything Solo Sokoa said could go the other way right here.
01:18:26Suplex powerbomb combo and J.C. Matteo may be out.
01:18:30But why not look up with the win, Joe Tess?
01:18:34Loomis is gonna fly, Wade.
01:18:38This to hold on to go.
01:18:40And the save.
01:18:42Well, Tangaloa had to be on point with that breakup because wiped out was J.C. Matteo.
01:18:47And now we're going.
01:18:48Oh, no.
01:18:49And that's behind the referee's back.
01:18:51The massive Tangaloa.
01:18:53Keep your eyes open, though.
01:18:54Rowan takes him out.
01:18:55Oh, it's on.
01:18:57It is on on the floor.
01:19:00It was a matter of when not in.
01:19:02Oh, my.
01:19:03Oh, my.
01:19:04Massive Eric Rowan.
01:19:05No worries.
01:19:06I'm out of here.
01:19:07Oh, no, Uncle Howdy's in the mix.
01:19:08Oh, my God.
01:19:08And it is an all-out brawl between the MFTs and the Wyatt Six.
01:19:13This one's thrown out.
01:19:16This is craziness here.
01:19:17Pandemonium breaking out in our main event.
01:19:21This one has been blown out by the referee.
01:19:24Good luck getting control of this.
01:19:26We need a stun gun.
01:19:27We need tasers.
01:19:29We need tear gas.
01:19:30We need riot police.
01:19:32This is out of control, Barrett.
01:19:34Absolutely out of control.
01:19:37It's been bubbling up for weeks.
01:19:40Tolantaga was out on the floor.
01:19:44He did damage.
01:19:45And Big Rowan said, not so fast.
01:19:48And now everywhere you look, they are flying at each other.
01:19:53Now the two bosses, Uncle Howdy and Solo Sekoua getting into it, too.
01:19:58Who would want to be in the front row for this?
01:20:01Keep well back.
01:20:03As they send in Joe Gacy as well in the numbers game in the center of the ring.
01:20:07Oh, the numbers game.
01:20:08Talk about a numbers game.
01:20:10Teletonga is a one-man numbers game.
01:20:13And he's going up top.
01:20:15He's almost seven foot tall.
01:20:17Oh, a cross body wipeout.
01:20:28Rowan with a dropkick.
01:20:30The wild six-eight.
01:20:32We've got a monster of our owning, Erich Rowan.
01:20:36Nicky wants a piece of it.
01:20:45She says, I want in.
01:20:46She's out of her damn mind.
01:20:48That's why.
01:20:50A Nicky bomb.
01:20:51A Samoan spike.
01:21:00A Samoan spike.
01:21:04Turn around, Solo.
01:21:06Guess who's there.
01:21:09Sister Abigail.
01:21:10Oh.
01:21:15Wyatt Six.
01:21:17MLT's absolutely wild.
01:21:21First off of the word.
01:21:26All right.
01:21:28When the Pan ...
01:21:31The Yankees, the ...
01:21:34The Yankees ...
01:21:36Six.
01:21:37Turn around.
01:21:38Had this too long ago.
01:21:41One operation.
01:21:42Was machine?
01:21:43Yes, given me.
01:21:43Leave me.
01:21:44Make and.
01:21:45It's all a motherfucking attack.
01:21:46Perfect.
01:21:48I'm sorry.
