00:00Now, forever, together.
00:30Oh, it's that time of year again.
00:35Bells are ringing, shoppers are shopping, and there's a sense of camaraderie in the air.
00:40Welcome on in to the jolliest edition of This Week in WWE.
00:44I'm Megan Morant.
00:45One of my favorite things about this time of the year is the way people come together.
00:49There's something about the way people forgive and let bygones be bygones just brings so much
00:55joy to my heart.
00:56It was in that spirit that Nick Aldis headed to the currently suspended Drew McIntyre's
01:01house to work out a deal for the Scottish Warriors' return.
01:05But not everyone involved would have tidings of good cheer.
01:12Hi, sir.
01:12I brought you guys with me here today to document everything because, unfortunately, it's come
01:17to this.
01:18I have to make sure I catch everything on camera because there's no way of knowing what Drew
01:24will misrepresent if I don't.
01:26Okay, first things first.
01:29Thank you for inviting me into your home.
01:31You're welcome.
01:32It goes without saying that this could have happened at the office, but out of respect
01:36and in the interest of good faith, here I am.
01:39And given the stunt you pulled in DC, really questioning why I still came.
01:46But Cody wants you reinstated, we all want you reinstated.
01:50You're a top talent in WWE, obviously, an integral part of SmackDown.
01:56So, I have a proposal.
02:01I think that you're going to like the terms.
02:05You get a one-on-one match with WWE Champion Cody Rhodes.
02:10The title will be on the line.
02:11And, secondly, to show our officials and the WWE Universe that you've repented, I'd like
02:21a public apology to Dan Angler for that heinous attack.
02:25He's lucky he's not in intensive care.
02:30There's also a hefty fine.
02:33But, I think that your payday from Survivor Series War Games should just about cover that.
02:41So, those are the terms.
02:43Take it or leave it.
02:44I get my match for the WWE Championship.
02:49Yes.
02:52The thing I want more than anything.
02:56I've got no choice.
02:59No.
03:01Absolutely not.
03:02No.
03:03No.
03:03This is what Cody wants.
03:05This is what you want.
03:07You've created an unsafe working environment.
03:11I accept these terms.
03:12I'm just going to get screwed again.
03:14So, no.
03:16I don't accept your terms.
03:19Instead of another monologue about all the ways you've been screwed, why don't you just
03:22tell me what you want.
03:23Okay.
03:24What I want was fair.
03:25Fair.
03:26That's it.
03:27If I come back, if I come back, I get my WWE Championship match with Cody Rhodes.
03:32That's deserved.
03:34I'm learning how much you're willing to protect your golden boy.
03:36But, I want to pick the stipulation.
03:40I can live with that.
03:41Okay.
03:41And last, but no means least, I want you to fly back to Stamford, Connecticut after we
03:48finish here.
03:49I want you to get your little lawyers together.
03:52And I want you to draw up some documents that say, Cody Rhodes cannot lay one finger on me
04:00before that championship match, or he is stripped of the WWE Championship.
04:06You know, I really hate this, but get the match in the ring.
04:19Got a deal.
04:23Pleasure doing business with you, buddy.
04:25Come on, mate.
04:29How quick can I see those documents?
04:31How quick is it going to take to draw them up?
04:33Well, I have to tell Cody, and then I have to talk to legal, but maybe by the end of the
04:37day.
04:37End of the day.
04:38Fantastic.
04:40Fantastic.
04:40I'll never get out of here.
04:41What the hell is this?
04:42Oh, come on, man.
04:46You've got to be kidding me.
04:48You've seriously got to be kidding me.
04:51My house, my home, really all this.
04:53You set me up like this.
04:55You come to talk business.
04:57You bring him to my house when the family sleeps.
04:59Just stay there.
05:00I'll handle it.
05:00He's out there right now.
05:01I'll handle it.
05:02You can handle it.
05:03Handle it.
05:03I'll handle it.
05:04Why are we negotiating with that?
05:08What are you doing?
05:09What the diplomacy about?
05:10Why are you here?
05:10You're ruining everything.
05:12What am I ruining it?
05:13You're seriously going to show up and make that property?
05:27Come on.
05:28Let me on.
05:29Hey, you can't have it.
05:30Come down.
05:34I'll get him out of here.
05:36He has to have a house.
05:39He asked for it.
05:40He asked for it.
05:41He asked for it.
05:43Merry Christmas, ass.
05:45I'm gonna be kidding.
05:47I'm not your best.
05:49I'm telling you whatever.
05:50I'm telling you whatever.
05:52I gotta handle it.
05:54Following Cody's unexpected visit, the WWE world champion headed somewhere where he was expected.
06:02Smackdown last Friday.
06:03Cody chided Drew on his statements about WWE being an unsafe working environment.
06:09But it was Nick Aldis who was forced to be the voice of reason when it comes to the situation between Cody and Drew.
06:18Cody, you should have trusted me to get this thing over the finish line.
06:24But you didn't.
06:25But you didn't.
06:26So now, when Drew comes back, if he pays the fine and makes that public apology to Dan Engler, Cody,
06:36you can't lay a finger on Drew McIntyre.
06:44Or what?
06:48Nick, or what?
06:51Or I have to strip you of the WWE Championship.
06:56You want me to acquiesce to that demand and your demand?
07:08I, okay, I can guarantee you that I will not touch Drew McIntyre.
07:17But in the spirit of all these demands, I should ask you something.
07:24I feel like, Nick, I feel like you've forgotten who you're talking to, right?
07:34Ask our mutual friend, Wade Barrett right there, who you're talking to.
07:40Ask Marty on the camera, who you're talking to.
07:43You should say my name, because you know it.
07:46I'm the one who sent the tweet that changed the game.
07:49I'm the one who came back here and run the Royal Rumble, not once, but twice.
07:53I am the reigning king of the ring.
07:55I unseated the Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns.
07:58And I even defeated the greatest of all time, John Cena, for this title.
08:04I'm QB1, damn it.
08:07And here you are saying that I'm not above the law.
08:14As long as I have this title, I am the law.
08:18Mr. Aldis, my friend, your demand, his demand, remember one thing.
08:26While I am holding this, I don't work for you, I work for them.
08:32And you, my friend, you work for me.
08:41A fired-up Cody Rhodes isn't happy with the terms of Aldis' deal.
08:52But it's very unlikely that the WWE World Champion will do anything to jeopardize the title.
08:58Though anything is possible if Cody is pushed hard enough.
09:01The question is, how far will Drew McIntyre go?
09:05We'll find out when Drew returns Friday on SmackDown.
09:11There is a shot to the jaw that changes the night of the Kabuki Warriors, perhaps.
09:23Certainly Kairi Sane, I think Asuka might have to do it on a right now.
09:26Right into the post.
09:28Asuka's trying to rally here as best she can.
09:32Well, effectively be two on one.
09:34There's only one Kabuki Warrior left standing, although in the drop zone now is Nia Jax.
09:41Sensing it is Lash Legend.
09:43Lash Legend getting pulled back down to the floor by Kairi Sane.
09:47And now Nia Jax is going up top.
09:51Oh, this is gonna be ugly for Asuka.
09:54Or is it?
09:56Would you look at Asuka?
09:59There's the tag.
10:01Delivering and what a fun it was.
10:06Oh.
10:07Lash Legend.
10:08These two are not legal, but the fight continues.
10:11It's now down to Kairi Sane to try and win this for her team.
10:15Off the apron, does damage.
10:17I think Asuka caught a piece of that corner and steel steps away.
10:21Recklessly right onto Lash Legend, but it did the job.
10:25And now can Kairi Sane score the dub?
10:28Looking for that insane elbow.
10:30But instead, Nia meets her.
10:33Devastating chokeslam and now dragging the carcass of Kairi Sane into what may well be the end.
10:43Looking for the annihilator and delivering.
10:45One, two, three.
10:47And just like that.
10:51Here are your winners.
10:53The team of Lash Legend and Nia Jax.
11:01While the Tag Jams, the Kabuki Warriors have a date with Desi.
11:06Oh, wait a minute.
11:08Got the celebrations.
11:11Charlotte and Alexa heading straight to them.
11:15The former Tag Champs have got major issues with all four of the women who are out here.
11:20Now focusing on the winners.
11:22Jax and Lash Legend.
11:25Look at Alexa.
11:26Taking it right to Lash Legend.
11:28A week ago, you know exactly what happened when they met up.
11:32With a mass brawl.
11:33And of course, the reason Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair no longer have the gold is in large part
11:39because of this duo they're now beating out of the ring.
11:42Look at the teamwork.
11:44The 14 time world champion putting Lash Legend right into that drop zone.
11:53Oh, but Nia Jax clears her.
11:56Saving Lash Legend from certain devastation.
12:00Issues between these four clearly not concluded.
12:03They want those in their hands for good again.
12:12Ambushed mid-celebration after a win over the Kabuki Warriors, Nia Jax and Lash Legend got a not-so-friendly reminder from Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss that all hell has broken loose in the women's tag team division.
12:25With the Kabuki Warriors in the center of all of the chaos, just about everyone wants a piece of the current tag team champs.
12:34With Rhea Ripley next in line for a shot against Asuka.
12:36Despite being a one-on-one match, Kairi Sane is a guaranteed to be in Asuka's corner.
12:42But with Io Sky not medically cleared for in-ring competition, Ripley insisted her besties stay behind as she took on Asuka in one hell of an uphill battle.
12:51And now Ripley with Asuka up top.
12:58Down goes Asuka.
12:59Ripley into the cover.
13:01And a kick out at two.
13:04Nasty landing for Asuka.
13:08Let's take another look moments ago at this super kick to a trapped Empress of Tomorrow and then Asuka driven face first into the mat.
13:17We need a little dental checkup after that impact.
13:24Yeah, the appreciation of the WWE fans in attendance.
13:30This is awesome.
13:31Two of the best in the game.
13:33And Riz says this one's over.
13:35Yeah, able to muscle up Asuka.
13:42Razor's edge position.
13:44Oh, able to roll through.
13:47Shoulders down.
13:48Is it enough?
13:49Kick out at two by Ripley.
13:53Again, these two know each other so well as Ria gets hung up on the top rope and now dumped out to the apron.
14:01And Asuka drives.
14:02Uh-oh.
14:03Ripley catching Asuka.
14:05Ria, come on Asuka.
14:07Back in the ring, come on.
14:08Asuka ripped out to the apron.
14:09Now German suplex position.
14:10Oh.
14:11Goodbye.
14:12Landon hit.
14:13The back of her head on the apron.
14:15I don't see how Ria's getting up from that.
14:18A vicious German suplex on the ring apron.
14:24And now Asuka taking her time, climbing to the top turnbuckle.
14:31Asuka's gonna fly, but he got, she got caught by Ripley.
14:36And Ria now with a ruddy knee.
14:39And Asuka driven out of the ring.
14:41Veteran instinct from Asuka.
14:44Come on.
14:45Ripley looking to give chase.
14:47Here comes Ria.
14:48Pulls her way off the apron and through Asuka.
14:51With that cannonball.
14:52And now Ria Ripley regaining control this match.
14:58Let's go.
15:02Still see the effects of Asuka's offense on the face of Ria Ripley fighting through the pain.
15:08Uh oh.
15:09Uh oh.
15:10Kyrie saying.
15:11Kyrie.
15:13Again.
15:14A difference maker in this match.
15:20EO Sky is here.
15:23EO Sky, who's not medically cleared to compete, is out here to try to even the odds.
15:30Down goes Kyrie.
15:33And EO is hurting.
15:35You have to understand EO's mindset, but this is not a wise decision.
15:39And Kyrie from behind, dropping EO right on her back.
15:42The injured back.
15:45EO victimized by an insane elbow from Kyrie.
15:50And now Ria Ripley checking on her friend.
15:52And from behind, Asuka rolls up Ripley for the win.
15:56Had the price as well.
15:58Here we go.
15:59Here is your winner.
16:00Asuka!
16:04Well, Corey obviously the concern for her friend who probably should have never came out here.
16:09That was EO Sky.
16:11Ria trying to help her friend and it cost her.
16:13With all eyes locking in on this collision course, two weeks from now, Ria Ripley and EO Sky will be fighting to win the tag team title.
16:24Rewrite the chain of commands and leave a trail of broken Kabuki Warriors egos.
16:29But Asuka and Kyrie are confident that they will continue to hold the tag team division hostage and prove that there are absolutely no equals in sight.
16:38After weeks of targeted attacks from Aleister Black and Zelina against Damian Priest, the archer of infamy finally leveled the playing field in the form of Ria Ripley.
16:56Two weeks ago on SmackDown, the Terra Twins reunited in what can only be described as a bad tempered mixed tag team match.
17:02Ria and Damian reminding the world of how much of a devastating duo they make with Tandem Razor's Edge followed by a riptide putting away their most vicious rivals.
17:14Damian Priest would make an appearance last Friday hoping to put Aleister and Zelina in the rear view and look towards 2026.
17:21Unfortunately for Priest, it turns out 2025 still has horrors for meaning.
17:29Now, let's talk about some good times.
17:32Good times like last Friday night SmackDown when Zelina and Aleister got their asses dropped by the Terra Twins.
17:43Yeah, that business has been handled.
17:48So now we can look to 2026.
17:52And in 2026-
17:54Oh, Damian.
17:59Damian.
18:00You are such a hypocrite.
18:06You really think that getting your mommy to fight your battles for you makes you a real man?
18:15News flash, you didn't even get the pin.
18:20And you call that salvation?
18:25You just can't stand the fact that Aleister broke you.
18:31You made your decision.
18:35And now you have to live with ours.
18:38Or more importantly, his.
18:41Oh!
18:42Aleister Black was behind Damian Priest and he's beating him down.
18:44What a sneak attack.
18:46Aided and abetted by Zelina by the Punisher, Damian Priest fighting back, fighting for his life at this point.
18:56Oh!
18:57Massive right hand delivered by Priest.
18:58Just when Damian Priest thought he put this to bed with Aleister Black and Zelina, they are back with a vengeance but things have backfired.
19:06Just like last week.
19:07No, he's able to reverse onto the attempt for the Razor's Edge.
19:09Oh!
19:10Big knee!
19:11From Black.
19:12Muatai strikes of Aleister Black coming to the fore once again.
19:15This is one dangerous man but caught in mid-air.
19:17A driven south of heaven.
19:18A driven south of heaven.
19:19Oh!
19:20Onto the apron south of heaven.
19:21Kevin!
19:22David!
19:23David!
19:24David!
19:25Mark!
19:26Oh, Priest.
19:27He's reaching under the ring.
19:28Oh, David!
19:29And he's becoming his hat.
19:30He's been able to reverse onto the attempt for the Razor's Edge.
19:32Oh, big knee from Black.
19:33As Muatai strikes of Aleister Black coming to the fore once again.
19:36This is one dangerous man but caught in mid-air.
19:38A driven south of heaven.
19:40On to the apron!
19:41South of heaven.
19:43David!
19:44David!
19:45David!
19:46David!
19:47Fuck!
19:48David!
19:49the ring this crouch can explode nothing more they want to see than that damian priest apparently

31:35prepare for good luck well as always things were calm cool and collected in the judgment day clubhouse
31:45last monday all right maybe they were a little bit more confrontational contemptuous and chaotic but
31:51hey i'm sure they'll work it out eventually like they always managed to do but raquel rodriguez wasn't
31:56the only superstar fuming over the women's world championship nikki bella wants her shot at stephanie
32:02vaquer and was determined to make the world aware no matter how disruptive the moment um excuse me
32:10hello if y'all could shut up for a second the most famous person just walked into the building yeah
32:18and uh i have something to say so uh first of all michigan it seems like everyone has forgotten who i am
32:28i am nikki bella okay i am a legend i am a hall of famer and i am a former champion and this
32:45is what champions look like do you got that but you know what i mean how would you people know what
32:54champions look like i mean you root for the lions i mean let's be honest the lions wish they were as
33:03good as the philadelphia eagles am i right or wait better yet ohio state

33:35look look look look look look i get it stephanie is a big deal in the ring but i am a big deal
33:47everywhere you got that and it's about time that that women's world title is around the waist of a true
33:58global superstar and that is me the legend the one and only and don't forget it nikki bella
34:08while nikki bella looks to prove that she is still a force to be reckoned with in wwe
34:14raquel rodriguez wants both revenge on nikki for costing her the championship
34:18not to mention winning her very first singles title on raw and as for the champ well stephanie
34:24vaquer will do whatever she can to stay on top the women's world title is on the line monday on raw
34:35defeating john cena at saturday night's main event has made gunter public enemy number one
34:41especially after the ring general arrived to raw two weeks ago to rub in the fact that he made the 17
34:48time champion tap out so it was no surprise when gunter got booed out of the arena by fans
34:54and superstars but it seems that gunter wasn't finished with his celebration as last monday on
35:00raw the ring general made his way to the ring to restart his victory lap
35:12you might want to leave over here
35:24the
35:30the
35:39the
35:43the
35:45the
35:47the
36:22You really shouldn't be mad at me.
36:29But you should be mad at the guy that tapped out like a little.
37:34It seems that no words are needed for CM Punk to showcase his disdain for the ring general
37:42Guter.
37:43However, the best in the world needs to sharpen his focus for his current targets, The Vision,
37:49as Punk and Rey Mysterio take on Bronson Reed and Austin Theory in our main event.
37:54Next.
37:59It is The Vision's Logan Paul against Rey Mysterio.
38:05We've got Rey Mysterio coming for you.
38:07And I bet the masked man shows up as well, huh?
38:10The masked hooded mystery man shows up once again escaping.
38:18I mean, who is it?
38:20I don't know.
38:21At this point, I'll take the help.
38:25Logan Paul is out here looking to solve his, quote, Rey Mysterio problem.
38:30Oh, instead, Rey counters.
38:31Oh, no.
38:32Big Bronson Reed and Braun break him.
38:33Oh, they see a Punk.
38:34Oh, the brass knuckles.
38:35Referee has no idea.
38:36Oh, Rey trips him up.
38:376-1-9.
38:38Rey's got the brass knuckles in hand.
38:39Whoa.
38:40Oh, the masked man is back for a stop.
38:44Who the hell is this guy?
38:46And now, Logan Paul.
38:48Super star splash.
38:52Oh, the masked man is back for a stop.
38:56Who the hell is this guy?
38:59And now, Logan Paul.
39:01Super star splash.
39:07The vision now seems more dangerous than ever.
39:37What the hell are you doing?
39:51I wanted you to know why I was wearing the mask.
39:56I wanted everybody to feel my actions before they saw my face.
40:02And I've made some bad decisions.
40:05I got comfortable.
40:06I got injured, but then I saw the vision.
40:10You didn't wait for anything.
40:12You took, and that's me now.
40:16I take.
40:17Really?
40:20Really.
40:21You take?
40:23Yeah.
40:24And I know the vision's got a match tonight, and
40:27I'd love to take that opportunity and help out.
40:31Really?
40:33Really?
40:33Really?
40:33Really?
40:34Really?
40:37Interesting.
40:41Very interesting.
40:42Intrigued is the best way to describe Paul Heyman after speaking with Austin Theory,
40:50and the Oracle is quick to put Theory's words to the test.
40:54While it might have taken some convincing from Paul to Breger and Reed to allow Theory to sit
40:59with them, after a while, the pair agreed, resulting with Bronson stepping up to team up with Theory
41:06in a tag team match against CM Punk and Rey Mysterio.
41:13It seems like it's just waking Bronson Reed up.
41:17Reed now sending Puck into the corner.
41:22Puck got the boot up just in time, now the champ making the climb to the top turnbuckle.
41:28Puck top rope, a flying clothesline by Puck, takes Reed off his feet.
41:37Puck now into the cover, is it enough to put Reed away?
41:40And a kick out of two by Reed.
41:46Take another look at this, CM Punk soaring through the sky with a clothesline right on the money,
41:51takes down Ozzilla.
41:53And understandably, Puck wanted to knock Theory off to neutralize the threat with that
41:58momentary hesitation, may have been the only thing that let Bronson Reed kick out.
42:03And now Mysterio, uh oh, with Bronson Reed tied up.
42:10Rey Mysterio sends Reed into position.
42:14Tag made, Theory's legal, Mysterio didn't see it.
42:16You're right.
42:17Now he does.
42:17Oh my god, what a collision.
42:22The impact by Theory, what a wise move by Theory to make the tag, saving Reed there.
42:26Great situational awareness by Austin Theory.
42:31Mysterio sends Theory into the second rope.
42:36Rey Mysterio with a 6-1-9, gonna drop the dime, cover.
42:42Bronson Reed pulling Mysterio off the cover.
42:47Ozzilla in the right place at the right time.
42:52Just flattened the Hall of Famer.
42:56And now here comes CM Punk, driving Bronson Reed right into our announce table.
43:03And now the fight right here in front of us.
43:06Both men in the Time Keepers area.
43:10Austin Theory now all on his own inside the ring.
43:16Rey slowly making his way back into the square circle.
43:19Rey and Theory are legal.
43:24Mysterio stops Theory for the moment.
43:30Another right hand connects.
43:31Austin Theory on Spaghetti Legs.
43:33Rey gonna go up top.
43:37Austin Theory!
43:41Again, great awareness by Austin Theory.
43:46Quickness.
43:49Oh!
43:50Stomp!
43:51A stomp by Theory!
43:53A cover on Rey!
43:55And a win by The Vision!
43:58And now CM Punk back into the mix, but the stomp delivered by Austin Theory.
44:04I can't say for certain, only Paul Heyman knows, but I'd say Austin Theory nailed his audition.
44:11Well, I was gonna ask you the question, did Austin Theory prove his worth tonight?
44:21Oh, look out!
44:22And Bronson Brinker now!
44:24Brinker going after CM Punk!
44:26These two meet in two weeks for the world title.
44:29And now Austin Theory runs into a right hand.
44:31CM Punk on fire right now, swinging at anything that moves.
44:36Look out, Punk!
44:37Spare!
44:38And if Broad Breaker hits that two weeks from tonight, the Broad Breaker era will be here.
44:49If that sphere is a premonition into CM Punk's future on January 5th, then the best in the
44:55world will need to rethink his strategy if he wishes to retain the World 2B League Championship
45:00against The Vision's Mad Dog.
45:04If neither Stephanie Vaquer, Nikki Bella, nor Raquel Rodriguez satisfied with the outcome
45:09of the last championship match, the best way forward is a triple threat between Vaquer,
45:13Bella, and Rodriguez to discover who is truly the Women's World Champion.
45:20Jimmy and Jey Uso look to quickly climb back to the top of the tag team mountain by taking
45:25on AJ Childs and Dragon League for the championship gold this Monday on Raw.
45:33The action is packed in the upcoming weeks with more than five golden rings up for grabs,
45:39but we got to put one foot in front of the other if we want to discover which superstars will
45:45earn gold or coal.
45:47So while we wait for the jingle of the starting bell, I'm Megan Morant and I'll be right here
45:53next time to recap the cause and effect of everything WWE this week in WWE.
