00:00Then, now, forever, together.
00:30Then, now, forever, together.
01:00Now, forever, together, together, together, together, together, together.
01:19The going is a tag team match scheduled for one goal, introducing first at a combined weight of 370 pounds, Joaquin Wilde, Cruz Del Toro, the L.W.O.
01:36Huge tag team match kicking us off here on Main Event this week.
01:41I want to welcome you in ringside, Vic Joseph, alongside Byron Saxton.
01:46There's no Blake Howard, he is coming off of live events last week for NXT.
01:50Byron, how great is it to be back here on Main Event?
01:53Well, I'm going to reverse the question and ask you, how great is it that we are color coordinated this week on Main Event?
01:58You know how to ruin just about anything.
02:01Hey, ruin throws for life, baby.
02:03I guess so.
02:06I'm going to regret doing that.
02:11And your opponents have a combined weight of 597 pounds, Eric and Ivan.
02:40The War Greaters!
02:44What are you so jumpy for?
02:46I'm so jumpy because it's time for WAR on Main Event.
02:50Well, Byron, I'm going to put you on the spot right now.
02:52How does this duo recapture the raw tag team goals?
02:57Well, Eric and Ivar do have followed their careers.
03:00They have overcome virtually every obstacle two human beings can overcome.
03:04With that said, how do they get back to tag team title greatness?
03:07I want to see more of a killer instinct from the War Raiders.
03:10Fair enough.
03:11And we talk about their opponents who are trying to get a quick start.
03:14And that is smart strategy for the LWO.
03:16They've been so close to gold in the past.
03:18I think we can agree they are a very resilient duo.
03:21Wasn't that long ago that the LWO earned the right to be number one contenders for
03:25the world tag team titles, a certain team you do not want to sleep on here in WWE.
03:31And how important is this matchup for these teams?
03:34We know that RAW general manager Adam Pearce is watching this very closely.
03:38Listen, we know this tag team division, especially on Monday Night RAW,
03:41it's like a New York subway.
03:42It is packed, it is crowded, but it is exciting.
03:45There is never a dull moment because the competition is always at a fever pitch.
03:50Del Toro is legal, springboard moonsault and a quick kick out.
03:54And I'll do you one better for Cruz Del Toro and Joaquin Wilde.
03:57This match is ultra important because over the last few weeks and months here in WWE,
04:01they have never had the number of the War Raiders.
04:04They have not been able to secure a win over the War Raiders.
04:06As we're taking a look at this match, what a nasty elbow.
04:10Del Toro trying to bounce back and certainly did.
04:13What is your take on the status of the RAW tag team division?
04:16It's a beautiful thing to watch.
04:18If you're in it, it's a little stressful.
04:20It's a bit pensive because you're trying to find your place.
04:22You're trying to find a way to stand out.
04:25An LWO taken to the air.
04:28When we talk about the tag team division because we saw the Creed in action last week
04:32alongside Otis and Tozawa.
04:34Everyone, of course, is chasing Finn Balor and JD McDonough, the current RAW Tag Team Champions,
04:39and another near fall.
04:40Not to mention, you've got the bronze causing a lot of havoc each and every week on Monday Night RAW.
04:45You've got the New Day when they aren't in grieving mode.
04:48Certainly still one of the premier tag teams in all of WWE.
04:51I had an interesting run in with the New Day on RAW, much like you did with L.A. Knight.
04:55L.A. Knight was beyond fired up this past Monday night.
04:59Tag was made.
05:00Big Ivar is now legal still to come.
05:02Here on Main Event, L.A. Knight battle big Bronson Reed on Monday Night RAW.
05:06But you talk about big looking Ivar with a splash.
05:10350 pounds moving around like a lightweight inside that ring.
05:15The War Raiders are carnage carnivores, always looking to feast on the competition.
05:21And we take a look at these two, we know the history of Eric and Ivar.
05:24Champions everywhere, they've been dominated all over the globe.
05:28Do you think some people, Byron, have actually forgotten that?
05:31They have, and it's a detriment to their existence here in WWE.
05:36Oh, there's the quickness of Del Toro, who desperately needed to get out of the way,
05:41is trying to make a tag now.
05:42Eric is gonna check back in.
05:44Wild's so close, and Joaquin Wild, not a legal man for his team.
05:47And I'll say this, I'm gonna be nice this week.
05:49I think you could pull off Wild's style.
05:51Did you see that hat?
05:52I don't know what someone put in your drink only once today,
05:55but that would absolutely, positively never happen.
05:59But thank you.
06:00Flying forearm, and it didn't even phase Eric.
06:03That is a scary look if you're walking Wild,
06:06staring at the facial expression of Eric.
06:08Oh, Wild trying to overpower Eric, and finally able to do so.
06:15Big super kick, and LWO doing what they need to do here.
06:19It's almost like seek and destroy, divide and conquer.
06:24Oh, a tag was made.
06:25Can't argue with the strategy of the LWO here.
06:28Understanding it has been impossible to earn a victory over the War Raiders.
06:31Change the strategy, do something different.
06:33And up until this moment, it's actually worked.
06:37Cruz Del Toro to the top, and big drop kick, wipe it out Eric.
06:41Remember, Ivar is the legal superstar.
06:43Big kick.
06:45From the top, wild.
06:48Springboarding in with a missile drop kick.
06:52This Orient confuse your opponent.
06:54That's the key to victory for Joaquin Wilde and Cruz Del Toro.
06:58Del Toro now legal again.
06:59Both these teams certainly have a style all their own.
07:03From the top, swan, ton, bomb, cover, and another kick.
07:07I mean, this would be big for the LWO to pick up a win.
07:10Well, it's a huge chip off the shoulder of Joaquin Wilde and Cruz Del Toro.
07:13They actually beat a team you've had so much trouble with.
07:15And that just gives you mental confidence to achieve even bigger things here in WWE.
07:19Bigger things all being tag team gold.
07:22And a tag was made.
07:24And now for the War Raiders.
07:26They seem that the fun and games are over here on Main Event.
07:30Somehow I feel like Hurt is dissipating.
07:32Oh, no.
07:33LWO.
07:34The War Raiders operating like a war machine.
07:41Here are your winners.
07:43The War Raiders.
07:46Byron, that was quick and it was sudden.
07:50It was scary for Cruz Del Toro and Joaquin Wilde.
07:55How quickly Eric and Ivar were able to immediately change the complexion of this match.
08:02Let's go back to the action in this matchup, Byron.
08:05Boom!
08:06Saw the quickness on display of the LWO.
08:08But Ivar showing quickness of his own.
08:11Quick tags and impactful offense.
08:15I wonder what the New Day is thinking now about the War Raiders.
08:20Because after this victory for these two, one day soon, the tag team champions might be preparing to go to war on Raw.
08:32And this is a nice sign of respect between these two teams here on WWE Main Event.
08:47Still to come here on Main Event, the electrifying lucha sensation.
08:53Ray Phoenix takes on Legato Del Fantasma's Angel in what is sure to be a high-flying display of offense.
09:00You are not going to want to miss this one.
09:03But before the action continues here on Main Event, we turn to last Monday.
09:07As the Usos united once again to address the vision after last week's chaotic ending to Raw.
09:13.
09:41Right back to it.
09:42They wanted it.
09:43They're getting it.
09:44.
09:57Green City has just turned into Yeet City tonight for Monday Night Raw.
10:02.
10:06There's the handoff.
10:07.
10:08That's what you're talking to.
10:09.
10:10You call it that.
10:14.
10:23I said the Usos are now in Yeet City.
10:28.
10:35The Vision.
10:37.
10:42Seth Rollins.
10:43.
10:47The Brownies.
10:48.
10:49The Bronsons, Brussos, Brown Breaker, Bronson Reed, y'all messed up.
10:57You screwed up, Boos.
10:58.
11:10No, the dangerous duo of destruction for the Vision.
11:15The tribal thief Bronson Reed, the badass Braun Breaker.
11:20Out here looking for trouble already.
11:25.
11:27They find it so easily, week after week.
11:29.
11:30Hey, Reed, look.
11:31It's the twins.
11:32Hey, Big Jim, you lost, man?
11:34This ain't SmackDown.
11:35.
11:45.
11:46This is Monday Night Raw, Ooze.
11:48.
11:49The Vision runs Monday Night Raw.
11:53.
11:58Man, y'all got some nerve coming out here standing in our ring after what y'all,
12:11y'all's family did to Paul Heyman.
12:14.
12:17.
12:30Not tonight, not tonight.
12:33Tonight, all I want from Roman's family is to acknowledge their tribal thief.
12:45.
13:06Big Jim, listen to Big Bronson.
13:10You were not a factor in Seth Rollins' vision when you were on SmackDown.
13:15But now, you're here on Monday.
13:19.
13:23Shut up!
13:28.
13:33We don't need to listen to these people.
13:35.
13:42He's coming back.
13:44We already dealt with him.
13:46And we're gonna deal with you too now, Jimmy.
13:49And if you wanna know how that goes down, just look at your cousin sitting in the hospital.
13:55Hey, how about you shut your mouth when you talk about the OTC?
13:58.
14:04Hey, Braun Breaker, to answer your question, yeah, Big Jim know where I'm at.
14:08I'm right here on Monday Night Raw.
14:11.
14:14Hey, you know what?
14:16There it is.
14:17I'm very happy to be standing in front of the vision.
14:19Cuz I do remember Seth J and J Security, but who the hell we got here?
14:23More like PB, J and J Security.
14:25.
14:28Hey, we know who you two punks are.
14:30Let me remind you who's standing in the ring.
14:32Who's?
14:33You the twos.
14:34And we the-
14:37I don't know what irks me more.
14:39I don't know what irks me more.
14:40Either because you two got the same damn name, or you're over here taking orders from a man,
14:44what's his name?
14:45Paul Heyman?
14:46.
14:49Yo, yo, I got you.
14:50You're taking orders from Paul Heyman.
14:53A.K.A.

15:21Cool.
15:22Guess what we did?
15:23We went to Adam Pearce.
15:24We rapped with him.
15:25And guess this?
15:26It's Breaker and Big Head, Bronson Reed.
15:30At Russell Palooza, you're going against the best damn tag team in the game.
15:34Jimmy and Jay, the Usso.
15:40Hey, but check it out, Milwaukee.

15:56We can wait.
15:57Cuz we can wait to wrestle Palooza.
15:59Not tonight.
16:00Milwaukee doesn't get to see this match.
16:03Wait, but that's LA Knight.
16:04Of course, LA Knight has something to say about it.
16:08He's got a major issue with Braun and Bronson Corey.
16:11So much unfinished business for the megastar.
16:14The defiant LA Knight out here all on his own trying to bring the fight to the vision.
16:20But LA being overwhelmed by these two powerhouses.
16:23Yeah, two on one right now.
16:25Big Bronson Reed and the badass Braun Breaker after last week's brutal attack.
16:31Wait a minute.
16:32Whoa, Uso.
16:33They go flying.
16:36Big Jim and Main Event Jay bringing the fight to Bronson Reed and Braun Breaker.
16:43What an announcement, Wrestle Palooza, get ready.
16:48Each delivering blow after blow to Big Bronson Reed.
16:53Reed and Breaker in the unfamiliar position of being outnumbered right now.
16:58And here's Breaker back in the midst.
17:05Super kick Lance Flush.
17:07Big Bronson trying to gather himself.
17:12Look at the BFT.
17:13Two, two, one.
17:17A moment of hesitation costly.
17:20Reed goes flying out of the ring after the super kick from Jimmy.
17:25It's a hit from Jimmy.
17:32I should be all.
17:34Okay, that one is just me.
17:39That one is just me.
17:41That one is just me.
17:44That one is just me.
17:45That one is just me.
17:50Paris divisions Bronson Reed and Braun Breaker have found themselves in the crosshairs of the
17:55greatest tag team of all time and it's now official. The Tribal Chiefs OG bloodline of
18:01Jimmy and Jay will reunite once again as the Usos take on Breaker and Reed at Wrestlepalooza.
18:09But the action is just getting started as Bronson Reed faces the man who's found himself caught in
18:14the middle of this heated tag team battle L.A. Night. The Megastar looks to follow up on the
18:20Renegade attack on the Vision when he takes on the Tribal Thief later tonight in singles competition.

22:12You are not gonna wanna miss what happens next.

22:44Hey!
22:48Hey!
22:50I promised all of you, I would redefine the term diva.
22:58And I am very proud to say that I sure have done that.
23:08What I liked about AJ is her spunk.
23:10I love this business, so it's about time we redefined what you're used to.
23:20I am a woman who knows how to get exactly what she wants.
23:27The Black Widow is in.
23:29We got a new champion, AJ Lee has reached her goal of becoming diva's champion.
23:38I have gone from being a girl in New Jersey to being the best in the world.
23:45You will never be able to listen to Mike Schott Taylor.
23:53AJ Lee is here.
23:57AJ Lee, after a decade, is back.
24:04After making her triumphant return to WWE alongside her husband CM Punk to unleash
24:18painful payback on Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch.
24:22The three time Divas Champion AJ Lee is back on Monday Night Raw for
24:26the first time in over ten years.
24:29Let's see what Lee has to say.
24:31There is a world in which me and Becky could have been friends.
24:38But then she had to go and motorboat my husband.
24:42She put her hands on him.
24:47She berated him.
24:49She defamed him.
24:50She-
25:10She defamed him.

30:50Pump the brakes.
30:53Look, this is very simple.
30:56We can make this super easy.
30:58AJ, just give Becky her Intercontinental Championship back.
31:07And we can all leave this dump of a city as soon as possible.
31:13Very simple, easy breezy.
31:17You want me to give the title back?
31:21Yes, give it back.
31:22No, that's a really good idea.
31:24I didn't even think of that to just give you the title back.
31:27See how easy that is.
31:29Great idea, all right, hand it over.
31:31But I do, just real quick, we could do that, we could do that right now.
31:35But I have a better idea, two options here, okay?
31:42One, Becky, you can come into this ring right now and
31:47take your title back, but you will risk me giving you another black eye on the other one.
31:53Get out of my face.
31:56I could even it out.
31:58Get out of my face.
32:00Or I will give you this title, if you agree to a tag match.
32:08AJ Lee and CM Punk versus Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins.
32:18Kicks are poison.
32:24Hold this, hold this, hold these.
32:29AJ, look.
32:38I know you've been gone ten years, you don't understand how things work.
32:44Let me explain it to you, I am the world heavyweight champion.
32:51This is my show.
32:58These are my people.
33:02You've been back for a cup of coffee.
33:08You don't call the shots, I call the shots, so I'm going to come into this ring.
33:14I'm going to take that title, give it back to my incredible wife.
33:20And that's gonna be the end of it, understand?
33:23Thanks for mansplaining that, everybody loves that.
33:25Very easy, very simple.
33:28All right.
33:56All right, you listen, and you listen real good.
34:01That does not belong to you.
34:08That is my title.
34:14This is me and my show.
34:16You don't get to hold it hostage, you don't get to call the shots.
34:20I run the show, you understand me?
34:22Very easy, very simple, just got very complicated for Seth Rollins.
34:28The world heavyweight champion just narrowly escaped the GTS.
34:33T.
34:39T.M.A.
34:42T.M.A.
34:46T.M.A.
34:49T.M.A.
34:50Hey, hey, hey, this doesn't work.
34:53Hey, you wanna match?
34:56You got a match.
34:59All for accepting.
35:00And Russell Palooza, you're both done for.
35:04We got to get it back.
35:07We got to put it into this.
35:09We got to put it into this.
35:11There goes the IC Championship.
35:18Mixed tag team.
35:24Seth and Becky, Punk and AJ Lee.
35:27Look out, Russell Palooza, if it gets made official.
35:32Mixed tag team action.
35:35AJ Lee got exactly what she came out here wanting.
35:39I like that kind of trade offer.
35:44After falling short of the World Heavyweight Championship
35:47in Clash in Paris at the hands of Seth Rollins
35:49and the Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch,
35:52CM Punk has returned with backup.
35:54And no one could ever have expected the three-time Divas Champion
35:58and wrestling icon AJ Lee has made her return to the squared circle.
36:03And at Wrestle Palooza, we'll see both power couples face off
36:07in a match for the ages.
36:09Coming up, two of the very best High Flyers are set to battle
36:14as Ray Phoenix and Angel meet one-on-one.
36:16While these two superstars may have faced off in tag team action,
36:19who will secure victory when they meet in singles competition?
36:22We'll find out next.
36:24Next.
36:54Game Bridge Fieldhouse, the site of Wrestle Palooza,
37:04WWE's first-ever premium live event on ESPN platforms.
37:08The WWE Universe will enter a new era of streaming,
37:11posting a card shaping up to be one of the very best today.
37:15With Raw devoid of a champion, two women will walk into Indianapolis
37:20to become the heiress to the world title throne.
37:23Only one can be crowned.
37:25The genius of the Sky will look to regain the title she never lost
37:28as Io Sky takes on La Primera Stephanie Becker
37:31for the vacant Women's World Championship next Saturday at Wrestle Palooza.
37:36Byron, listen to the WWE Universe.
37:48I hear him.
37:49I feel the anticipation, Vic.
37:51Byron, has this man lived up to the hype in your opinion?
37:56Well, I'm glad that you asked me for my opinion,
37:59and I say unequivocally, absolutely, Ray Phoenix has lived up to the hype.
38:04It's not often that you hear a superstar that is talked about
38:07with such international acclaim, with such high expectation.
38:10And that superstar has more than delivered over the last six months here at WWE.
38:20The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
38:24Introducing first, from a captain in Mexico,
38:28weighing in at 182 pounds, Ray Phoenix!
38:35And you can hear the admiration from the WWE Universe for this high flyer.
38:52There is going to be speed.
38:54There is going to be quickness.
38:55It is going to be on full display in this matchup.
38:58Byron, I don't think we're going to be able to blink in this match.
39:01I don't want to blink.
39:02I want to enjoy every second of the mind-dazzling offense of Ray Phoenix.
39:08Innovative, unpredictable, and in-your-face.
39:27And to be truthful, a lot can be said about his opponent here tonight.
39:34Let's talk about this man.
39:36Undeniable charisma.
39:38And as you know, he's really trying to carry on a proud Lucha Libre legacy.
39:44And his opponent, accompanied by Berto.
39:48Representing Legado del Fantasma, from Monterrey, Mexico.
39:54He is one half of Los Garza, Ángel!
40:07I love what we've seen from Angel and Humberto over the last couple of men.
40:10Two men, to your point, who have reintegrated themselves, embraced their legacy,
40:15transformed their aesthetic presence, have won gold,
40:19and have proven that they've placed themselves on a different trajectory going forward here at WWE.
40:25And some in the locker room, and you see it on social media,
40:28the way these two go about business sometimes just rubs people the wrong way.
40:34Are you offended by how Angel and Humberto go about their business?
40:38I mean, sometimes some of the things they do have been underhanded.
40:42Some have been bad tactics, some have been negative.
40:44They don't care about what you think, Vic.
40:46Unfortunately, I hate to break it to you.
40:48These two are concerned about making money and winning championships.
40:51Are you just frustrated because of Florida's most recent game and outcome?
40:56Yes, I am.
40:57Because you seem pretty fired up.
40:59I didn't want to bring it up earlier, but I'll bring it up now.
41:01And also, has there been any truth to the rumor you visited a motorcycle museum and almost bought one?
41:05You're having a midlife crisis, Byron?
41:07I did buy a rider jacket.
41:09Sometimes you're just unbelievable as this matchup starting between these two, big uppercut.
41:13And look, when it comes to Ray Phoenix, I got to agree with you, Byron.
41:17This is a man who is checking all the boxes since his arrival.
41:20We talk about his WrestleMania debut, talk about the TLC match at SummerSlam.
41:25I mean, he is excitement personified.
41:28How many superstars can say that?
41:30Not many.
41:31After you make your WWE debut, you are competing on the grandest stage of them all.
41:36Not to mention, you've got a pretty acclaimed brother on a different brand, setting the tone of expectation.
41:44Ooh, missed Wally with the kick.
41:46Angel able to duck.
41:47Phoenix answering right back.
41:48And I had mentioned, there's going to be speed.
41:50There's going to be quickness.
41:51We're not going to be able to blink and take it down, finally.
41:55And it was Angel who, I think, was able to maybe counter just ever so slightly, shifting his own body weight.
42:01It even arrives.
42:06We've seen Angel face Ray Phoenix in tag team competition numerous times here in WWE.
42:11Oh, the first singles contest here on Main Event in WWE between Angel and Phoenix.
42:16Into the cover in Phoenix, in that left shoulder off the mat.
42:19We're part of history right now.
42:21You are fired up.
42:23We're on Main Event together, and the pass just came off, baby.
42:26No, really fired up.
42:29And right back on top, going right to work, is Angel.
42:34Angel really has slowed the pace of this match, John.
42:37It's almost as if the excitement, to a certain degree, has been taken out of the WWE Universe
42:41because Angel came in here and slammed the door shut on Ray Phoenix.
42:45Look, if you watch sports, you always hear the away team talk about the joy of walking onto that home field
42:51and silencing the home crowd.
42:53That's exactly what Angel has done in this match against Ray Phoenix.
42:56They talk about innovation.
42:58Ray Phoenix gets countered back in right into the back of the neck.
43:03Byron, did you hear that contact?
43:05And another cover by Angel.
43:07This October, John Cena lands in Perth for a full-scale WWE TakeOver.
43:19It all starts with SmackDown, ends with Raw.
43:23And in the center of it all, Cena takes the spotlight for one of WWE's most massive nights.
43:30WWE Crown Jeweled in Perth, all at RAC Arena.
43:34WWE TakeOver, Perth, this October.
43:38Combo tickets on sale now.
43:40Back on Main Event, and it has been all Angel in this matchup.
43:47Byron really has kept the high flyer, Ray Phoenix, grounded.
43:52You can just feel the confidence just booming off of Angel right now.
43:55The more he controls the tempo of this match and keeps Ray Phoenix grounded,
43:59the more he feels like it's only a matter of time before his hand has raised the picture.
44:04And for Angel, really a turning point in his career was when he started to tap into his heritage.
44:08I don't know if you see it that way.
44:10I do, but I think it's one big package.
44:13It's tapping into your heritage, which then affects your confidence.
44:17Hence why not too long, but at least two were in goal.
44:20And then they've re-found their spirit in NXT.
44:22And to your point, recently we're one half of the Triple-A Tag Team Champions
44:27pulling double duty in Triple-A.
44:32And again, I'm almost shocked that Ray Phoenix has been stopped as soon as he got out of the gate.
44:37Angel came here with a game plan, and look at Berto on the outside behind the official.
44:41And listen, not condoned, but if you're Ray Phoenix coming into this match,
44:44you knew he had to be prepared for the potential of involvement of Umberto from the outside.
44:49And on the topic of Triple-A, what a night it was in Las Vegas when worlds collide.
44:54It is a magical atmosphere, to say the least.
44:58Byron, this might be his opportunity now to get back in the matchup.
45:02Can he rally? Can he string together some offense?
45:05Phoenix desperately trying to...
45:07Whoa, saw this earlier.
45:08...in this match.
45:10Case in point, he successfully does so.
45:13And that kick connected, and you're looking at a man in Ray Phoenix
45:17who certainly didn't sign New Day's petition to ban Penta's Mexican Destroyer.
45:23But he's got other things on his mind now.
45:25Take it to the air with a moonsault.
45:27Into the cover, hook of the leg, and a near fall.
45:31There's a lot about Ray Phoenix, the character of Ray Phoenix to weather the storm,
45:35weather the offensive onslaught of Angel and able to bounce back.
45:39One thing that's important to note is we're getting into the deep waters of this matchup.
45:42Both these men, typically tag team competitors, neither really having an issue transitioning into singles competition here.
45:49Angel charging in.
45:51Oh, my word.
45:53Phoenix is out.
45:54Phoenix is out.
45:55Has to be.
45:56That was...
45:57How does he kick?
45:58Did you feel the impact of that kick?
46:03I mean, that was right in the teeth.
46:04That was pure instinct for Ray Phoenix to escape.
46:09And Angel just continuing to increase the aggression.
46:13Well, Angel would love to pick up a victory here.
46:15Would love to get back on the winning ways for Legato del Fantasma.
46:19Hoping to have the same success on SmackDown as they have had in AAA.
46:24And it all could start right here.
46:27And it's only going to take three seconds, but he's taking too much time.
46:30Oh, he's talking about 20 seconds of showboat here.
46:32Angel giving the signal that he's ready to end this thing, but...
46:36How about actually do it?
46:38Well, maybe you should have cared because you took too much time and the door now open for Ray Phoenix.
46:44And this is a competitor in Ray Phoenix.
46:46You cannot give a glimmer, a glimmer of hope to.
46:49No.
46:50Oh, right to the throat.
46:55And more of that innovation offense from Ray Phoenix, I believe is going to be on display.
47:01A little extra on that leg drop.
47:03Connected.
47:04So much so taken out of Phoenix.
47:06Finally getting into the cover.
47:08And again, Berto on the outside.
47:11Thank you, Berto.
47:13Or else this match would have been over.
47:14It would have been done.
47:15Ray Phoenix would be celebrating right now.
47:17Phoenix pleading his case.
47:19So I'm sure you condone this.
47:20This is great.
47:21I didn't know.
47:22Don't put words in my mouth.
47:23Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
47:25Ray Phoenix taking matters into his own hands.
47:28Like I told you earlier, Ray Phoenix had to be aware of the threat of Berto.
47:33And right then and there, he took care of the threat of Berto.
47:38Berto has stuck his nose in this matchup not once, but twice.
47:42Just got wiped out.
47:43And for Ray Phoenix, is this the moment?
47:46Is this the time?
47:47Ray Phoenix with those cat-like reflexes from the top.
47:51Good by Amigo.
47:54I think we call this the beginning of the end, Vic.
47:56Target acquired.
48:01Phoenix with a little extra.
48:05Umberto now gets hoisted up by Phoenix.
48:09Looking for that Mexican muscle buster.
48:12And bam, B in the center of the ring.
48:15Here is your winner, Ray Phoenix!
48:25How good that must feel, being able to overcome the odds.
48:29Wiping out Berto and then silencing Angel here tonight.
48:34That was a gut check victory for Ray Phoenix.
48:38Some of the action in this matchup.
48:40I mean, it was impressive.
48:41It was fast.
48:42It was hard hitting.
48:44It was impactful.
48:45And it was innovative from Ray Phoenix,
48:47who right here may have gotten the three, if not for Berto.
48:51I don't think there's a may have about it, but this is what you do if you're Phoenix.
48:55Get rid of the outside threat.
48:57Focus on your opponent and finish him off.
49:00Again, that Mexican muscle buster from Ray Phoenix earns him a hard-fought victory.
49:07Here tonight.
49:09But switching gears, we turn back to Raw as LA Knight prepares for battle with the Vision.
49:14Tonight, that's an accident out there.
49:26What?
49:27Come on, man.
49:29You saw me.
49:30I moved out of the way.
49:31I thought Jay was coming with me.
49:33He didn't move.
49:34What am I gonna do about it?
49:36All right?
49:37Cool.
49:38Hey, man, listen.
49:39I know you and Jay got beef, man.
49:41Put that aside, though, because tonight, who's?
49:44We got beef with the Vision.
49:46Who's we?
49:47First of all, there is no we.
49:49You gotta understand something.
49:50I've tried to do the whole play nice thing, teamwork thing, we thing.
49:57And instead would I get super kick to the mouth.
50:00Matter of fact, last time I went for the world title, Jay is the one who kept me from winning
50:06that title.
50:07If we rewind long enough, when I was in there with Roman Reigns for the WWE Championship,
50:12it was you who kept me from winning that championship.
50:15So I'll tell you what, there is no we as far as I'm concerned.
50:17I appreciate it.
50:18But here's the thing, if you wanna help, don't help.
50:23I'm gonna do this my damn self.
50:25Yeah.
50:26Coming up despite Jimmy Uso's quest for an alliance, LA Knight goes at it alone.
50:37Taking on a man dubbed the Tribal Thief.
50:39It's the megastar taking on Big Bronson Reed next on Main Event.
50:44Canelo Alvarez, one of the greatest Mexican boxers of all time.
50:54All of Mexico is marching with him.
50:57Viva Mexico Caronis!
50:59Terence Budd Crawford is on a whole nother level.
51:05It doesn't get any bigger than this.
51:08This is truly a super fight.
51:11The sport of boxing will change forever.
51:14Tickets on sale now at Ticketmaster.com.
51:19Welcome back to Main Event.
51:21Next week we'll find ourselves in Springfield, Massachusetts.
51:24Raw's last stop before Wrestlepalooza.
51:26With WWE's first ever ESPN PLE on the horizon,
51:30Raw's go home show is slated to be one for the ages.
51:34On tap for the show is the returning AJ Lee as she stands alongside her husband CM Punk
51:40to go face to face with the women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch
51:44and the World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins.
51:46Power couples consisting of trailblazers and future Hall of Famers
51:50each looking to get their last words in ahead of their tag team match next Saturday.
51:54It's Punk, Lee, Rollins and Lynch all under one roof next week on Raw.
51:59After suffering a devastating loss to Raquel Rodriguez on Raw,
52:04Lyra Valkyria looks to get one over on the former women's tag team champs
52:08as she takes on a familiar foe of her NXT past, Judgment Day's Roxanne Perez.
52:14And lastly, Wes Newberry's very own graces Springfield with his presence as a WWE Superstar one final time.
52:24John Cena returns to his home state and Monday Night Raw with a parting message to the fans and the Beast incarnate.
52:30Brock Lesnar before their epic clash in Indy.
52:33It's the greatest of all time, John Cena next week live on Raw.
52:38For now we head back to Raw where after tonight's brawl the megastar rolls alone.
52:42Accompanied by Braun Breaker, The Vision's big Bronson Reed looks to add LA Knight to the list of superstars taken out of action by The Vision.
52:50Can LA Knight overcome the odds again? Let's take it to the ring to find out.
52:55And now LA Knight feeling the fire again.
53:00Man.
53:01Right up into it.
53:03No.
53:04Able to avoid the driver and LA Knight now turning the tables again.
53:08Jawbreaker on the big Australian.
53:13Combine that jawbreaker with right hands to the jaw and perhaps able to parry that.
53:18No.
53:19Just tosses him over.
53:20I mean ragdolls him like he weighs nothing.
53:23Out of to the floor.
53:24That is a morale crusher, a dream crusher, a surefire sign that you're outgunned in this battle.
53:32That was horrifying power from Big Bronson Reed.
53:35He made it look too easy.
53:37Absolutely too easy.
53:39Now, Bronson Reed, is he lining him up?
53:42This big tried you on the loose.
53:44No.
53:45No.
53:46Knight gets out of the way.
53:48I suggest we follow suit Joe T.
53:50He's right up on top of our announce desk.
53:53LA Knight on the announce desk.
53:57Running off, jumping into Timekeeper.
54:01Are you kidding me?
54:03LA Knight taking a risk and it paid off at least for the moment.
54:10But look at the pain etched on the face of the mega star Joe.
54:15This is adrenaline, this is will, this is guts.
54:18Big elbow to the gut.
54:20Bronson Reed tosses Knight back in.
54:23He was able to survive that in Timekeeper.
54:26And now both these men, so much has been taken out of them.
54:29But they battle deep into the night here in Milwaukee.
54:33LA Knight doing his best to muster enough to take down Ozilla.
54:38Back and forth we go.
54:40And picked out of mid air again.
54:43Just ragdolls him again, but can't land a scratch.
54:46Look for the jumping neck breaker.
54:48But somehow, Bronson Reed stands up to it.
54:51Reed had the wherewithal to grasp the top rope and.
54:54The senton misses.
54:57No water in the pool for the Aussie tonight.
55:00LA now with a chance to make something big happen.
55:04He's got him lined up for the leaping elbow if he wants it.
55:07Jumps up and delivers.
55:12Here's Knight for the win.
55:14And Bronson Reed stays alive.
55:19And Joe, I gotta call it out if I'm being honest.
55:23It looks like Braun Breaker starting to sweat a little as LA Knight continues to
55:27string together offense, including that beautiful elbow.
55:31But not enough to keep the Kaiju, Big Bronson Reed down.
55:35BFT coming.
55:36He was looking for the BFT.
55:38But then Breaker gets up on the apron.
55:40And instead it's a jagged edge.
55:42It's a jagged edge from 330 pounds of that man.
55:47Here is your winner, Big Bronson Reed.
55:56Unfortunately, we've seen this movie before.
56:00LA Knight took his eye off the ball to deal with Braun Breaker and
56:04ate a jagged edge.
56:06Death Valley Driver for his trouble.
56:09And now we had to know this was coming.
56:12He just had to know.
56:14It was only a matter of time.
56:17Wait, wait, wait, wait.
56:18Wait, wait.
56:19It's Big Jim.
56:22Here comes Big Jim.
56:24Doing the right thing.
56:26We know Jey Uso didn't want any part of this.
56:30A spear from Breaker nearly cuts Jimmy Uso in half.
56:39LA Knight said, I have to do it on my own.
56:41We got a little bit of help for a moment from Jimmy Uso.
56:44And now Jimmy Uso is paying the price in the center of the ring.
56:49Headbutt after headbutt after headbutt.
56:53And getting sent out to the floor so they can then double-team.
56:58The senton on Jim.
57:00Jimmy Uso in a world of-
57:03What?
57:04I thought he took off.
57:06He's here.
57:12They've messed with his brother, and Jey Uso is here for Big Jim.
57:19Superkick, right hand, toe-to-toe.
57:24Yeet after yeet from the crowd.
57:27And the right hand just has Browbreaker flopping.
57:32Another superkick, Corey.
57:34A little Wrestle Palooza preview from the Usos who will reunite to battle the vision.
57:41But that could be the crystal ball, Joe.
57:44That could happen in Indianapolis.
57:47Another broad breaker spear.
57:51We may want to reserve a few beds in Indianapolis local medical facility.
57:57No, he's not stacking them.
58:00My God.
58:01This could be a tsunami here.
58:02I think somebody needs to start praying.
58:04A steel chair.
58:06A steel chair gets tossed also at Breaker.
58:10The Megastar found an equalizer.
58:13And he's able to clear them.
58:17Thank goodness, the Usos have LA Knight nearby.
58:22Come in now.
58:27We good?
58:37We good?
58:38Yeah.
58:39потому South Africa.
58:40K.
58:41It's going to us.
58:42Basically, he's at home.
58:44He's at home.
58:45He's at home!
58:47He's at home.
58:53He's at home.
58:55He's at-
58:59What?
59:01What, what?
59:06Shane Uso did that?
59:08We good now.
59:20No, we're good now.
59:31We're good now.
