Transcript
00:00:01Yes, sir, we promised you a great man.
00:00:03Oh, he's got nice.
00:00:04Oh, he's got nice.
00:00:05Oh, he's got nice.
00:00:06Oh, Andre.
00:00:07It's a giant.
00:00:08Muscle Mania.
00:00:09Hulkamania is running wild.
00:00:10My God, what?
00:00:11He missed the man.
00:00:12He missed the man.
00:00:13Oh, yeah.
00:00:14It's not a world that's watching.
00:00:22Ladies and gentlemen, the new World Heavyweight Champion, H.
00:00:30I'd like to thank all of you, my fans, the Edgeheads.
00:00:34I'd like to thank two very specific Edgeheads.
00:00:37Undertaker of Batista oblivious to the multiple Edge's that are out here.
00:00:42They saw the greatness in me and they attached themselves to it.
00:00:45And who can blame them?
00:00:47Oh, Edge stole it.
00:00:48Edge is the World Champion.
00:00:50With all due respect to you guys, there's one person that I really need to thank.
00:00:55She brought me back to being the champion that I am today.
00:00:59She is the love of my life.
00:01:03And tonight, I promise all of you that the last image you will see is this.
00:01:09The last image you will see is this.
00:01:13The look on Batista's face, the body mannerisms say it all.
00:01:17He wants his world title back tonight, which is why he invoked that rematch clause.
00:01:23Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:01:25This is a championship match.
00:01:28However, it is a three-on-one handicap match.
00:01:34So it's Edge, Curt Hawkins, and Zack Ryder against Batista with the world title on the line.
00:01:43Batista was prepping himself to face one man, Edge.
00:01:47Now he faces not two, but three men.
00:01:50Whoa!
00:01:51He's got it!
00:01:52And that burst of energy.
00:01:54Maybe with the number one contender needs of the animal.
00:01:57Spirit is off the barricade.
00:02:00Zack Ryder caught him in air.
00:02:02Batista's landing Ryder.
00:02:04He's got it!
00:02:05Batista has won the world title.
00:02:10The winner of this match, a new world heavyweight champion, Batista!
00:02:22No, no, no, no!
00:02:24Stop everything!
00:02:25Stop!
00:02:26Batista, the only way that you can win that title is to beat Edge.
00:02:33I demand that this match starts over, so ring the bell.
00:02:39Edge!
00:02:40Wait!
00:02:41No!
00:02:42Batista close it in!
00:02:43Batista, bomb time!
00:02:45Oh, come on!
00:02:46Come on!
00:02:47Steel chair to the back of the knee!
00:02:50Edge's championship set!
00:02:53Double T by Hawkins and Ryder!
00:02:56On the steel chair!
00:03:00No!
00:03:01No, no, no!
00:03:02No!
00:03:05Batista came here to win the title tonight, and he did!
00:03:08Batista has been screwed by the power couple of Edge and Vicky Guerrero!
00:03:15Tonight, I promise all of you that the last image you will see is this.
00:03:21I will rise up!
00:03:25Ja...
00:03:26Ja...
00:03:26Enterprise!
00:03:27Ja!
00:03:28whoo!
00:03:29Ja...
00:03:31Ja...
00:03:38And I won't be denied
00:03:41And all I've got there is my pride
00:03:46And I will rise up
00:03:50Breaking out, breaking down
00:03:52Break the rules, break the ground

00:08:55You see Finley
00:08:56You see Finley
00:08:57With Hornswoggle
00:08:57Here tonight
00:08:58At Smackdown
00:08:59On Raw Monday night
00:08:59Finley wasn't around
00:09:01But Mr. McMahon
00:09:02Did make another
00:09:03Tough love situation
00:09:05For his son Hornswoggle
00:09:07He put Raw General Manager
00:09:08William Regal
00:09:09Into a matchup
00:09:10With Hornswoggle
00:09:11And then Mr. McMahon
00:09:13Asked William Regal
00:09:14To well
00:09:14Show his true colors
00:09:15To use the brass knuckles
00:09:17Against Mr. McMahon's
00:09:19Own illegitimate son
00:09:21Hornswoggle
00:09:24Now bust him up
00:09:28Bust him up
00:09:29Hit him
00:09:30Hit him
00:09:30Bust him up
00:09:31Hit him
00:09:32Hit him
00:09:33Come on
00:09:33Hit him
00:09:34Hit him
00:09:35Come on
00:09:36Hit him
00:09:36Come on
00:09:36Hit him
00:09:37Come on
00:09:37Hit him
00:09:38Come on
00:09:39Hit him
00:09:40Come on
00:09:40Mr. Eagle
00:09:41Could not bring himself
00:09:42To strike Hornswoggle
00:09:43With those brass knuckles
00:09:45And Mr. McMahon
00:09:46To say the least
00:09:47Was not pleased
00:09:48That was a test
00:09:49No, no, no
00:09:52I was testing
00:09:53You failed me
00:09:54I never really wanted
00:09:56You to hit him
00:09:56I just wanted to see
00:09:59If you would
00:10:00What happened
00:10:01Put up
00:10:04Put up
00:10:04To your inside
00:10:05What happened
00:10:06To him
00:10:06You know, Michael
00:10:10What that shows me
00:10:11Is what everybody
00:10:11Already knows
00:10:12Mr. McMahon
00:10:13Believes
00:10:13In tough love
00:10:15But at the end
00:10:16Of the day
00:10:16He loves his family
00:10:18More than anything
00:10:19Who's Finley's opponent
00:10:20Going to be
00:10:21Here in the
00:10:21Beat the Clock
00:10:22Challenge
00:10:22On Smackdown
00:10:23And Finley's opponent
00:10:25And Finley
00:10:29From Miami, Florida
00:10:31Weighing 248 pounds
00:10:33He is the WWE
00:10:35United States Champion
00:10:37I want you to remember
00:10:37Until Von TV's quarter
00:10:39But the day
00:10:39Don't remember
00:10:40You know what
00:10:42This is going to be
00:10:43Interesting
00:10:44A different style
00:10:46You've got a thraller
00:10:48A man who loves to fight
00:10:49He has Finley
00:10:50And then he has MVP
00:10:51A guy that
00:10:52We were looking at
00:10:53Down Raw
00:10:54Is just so arrogant
00:10:57And successful
00:10:59But at the same time
00:11:01He knows
00:11:02What he can do
00:11:03As a United States Champion
00:11:04This is going to be
00:11:06A real fight
00:11:07Between these two
00:11:08Mega superstars
00:11:09Let's set the stage
00:11:10Once again
00:11:11This is a
00:11:12Beat the Clock
00:11:13Challenge matchup
00:11:14And what that means
00:11:15Is you will win
00:11:16This match
00:11:16By traditional means
00:11:18Pitfall
00:11:18Submission
00:11:19Disqualification
00:11:20Or countout
00:11:21But it's how
00:11:22Quickly you win
00:11:22This match
00:11:23That will set the pace
00:11:24For the rest of the evening
00:11:25And this first match
00:11:27Really sets the time
00:11:28Sets the tone
00:11:29And I think
00:11:30These two men
00:11:30Have the advantage
00:11:32Because any match
00:11:33After this
00:11:34They will always
00:11:35Be looking at the clock
00:11:36Knowing what time
00:11:37They have to beat
00:11:38And to me
00:11:39That's added pressure
00:11:40Clock is ticking away
00:11:41Finley former
00:11:42United States Champion
00:11:43Against the current
00:11:44United States Champion
00:11:45MVP
00:11:45Again the winner
00:11:47Whoever beats the clock
00:11:48Tonight sets the pace
00:11:49Will face the world champion
00:11:51In less than a month
00:11:52At the Royal Rumble
00:11:53You know when you look at
00:11:55When you look at
00:11:56At Finley
00:11:59I don't think
00:11:59His style
00:12:00Is conducive
00:12:02To a beat the clock
00:12:03Challenge
00:12:03Here's the first
00:12:04Pitfall to match up
00:12:05And a kick out
00:12:06By MVP
00:12:06You make a good point
00:12:07Coach
00:12:07The reason being
00:12:09Is because Finley
00:12:10Likes to methodically
00:12:11Take down his opponents
00:12:12Absolutely
00:12:13Work on a body part
00:12:14Yeah
00:12:14It's one of those things
00:12:15Where he's going to have
00:12:16To change his style
00:12:17Or if he doesn't
00:12:19Increase the motivation
00:12:21So to speak
00:12:22Because they both know
00:12:25Oh wow
00:12:26And that's what Finley's
00:12:27All about
00:12:27And MVP retaliating
00:12:28Well they don't know
00:12:30That you've got to win
00:12:31Quickly
00:12:31Because it's going to
00:12:33Take a quick
00:12:34One, two, three
00:12:34To get to the Royal Rumble
00:12:36MVP trying to get
00:12:38A pin cover here
00:12:38On Finley
00:12:39To no avail
00:12:40And you saw MVP
00:12:41Pulled Finley
00:12:42Out of the ropes
00:12:42Moments ago
00:12:43MVP cannot attack
00:12:44Finley and ropes
00:12:45Cannot risk disqualification
00:12:46And there's a boot
00:12:48Right to the face
00:12:50Of the fighting Irishman
00:12:51MVP had such a great 2007
00:12:54There's no reason to believe
00:12:55That 2008
00:12:56Won't be that much better
00:12:58Remember you can't
00:12:59Win this matchup
00:13:00Via countout
00:13:00You see the clock
00:13:01Ticking away
00:13:02We're a minute and a half in
00:13:03Time is of the essence
00:13:04In this battle
00:13:05And Horace Weidel
00:13:06Providing some
00:13:08Distraction
00:13:10To begin the wrong place
00:13:12At the wrong time
00:13:12MVP in control of Finley
00:13:15Who's going to set the pace
00:13:17Who's going to set the time to beat
00:13:18We hope to find out
00:13:19When we return
00:13:20We are back on
00:13:24Friday Night Smackdown
00:13:25The first matchup
00:13:26In the Beat the Clock
00:13:26Challenge is underway
00:13:27Finley vs. MVP
00:13:28Remember
00:13:29Being the first match
00:13:30Of the night
00:13:31The winner of this match
00:13:32Will set the pace
00:13:33You see the clock
00:13:34Five minutes and counting
00:13:35Already gone by
00:13:37In this matchup
00:13:38And time is of the essence
00:13:39It certainly is
00:13:40Because all the matches
00:13:41That come after this
00:13:43They have to beat this time
00:13:44You've got guys like
00:13:45Rey Mysterio
00:13:46The Undertaker
00:13:47Batista
00:13:48All having a shot
00:13:49Tonight in the Beat the Clock
00:13:51Challenge
00:13:51And remember
00:13:52If you do win
00:13:53The Beat the Clock Challenge
00:13:54You will get an opportunity
00:13:55At the world title
00:13:56At the Royal Rumble
00:13:57Here's the cover
00:13:58By Finley
00:13:58And a kick out
00:13:59By MVP
00:14:00And who's to say
00:14:01That Vicky Guerrero
00:14:02Is not being fair
00:14:03Just because
00:14:04The Undertaker
00:14:04Batista
00:14:05Cover again
00:14:06Again
00:14:06The shoulder rolled up
00:14:07Can't lay their hands
00:14:08On edge
00:14:09Another cover
00:14:10They can win
00:14:11The opportunity
00:14:12To lay their hands
00:14:13On edge
00:14:13At the Royal Rumble
00:14:14And you're of course
00:14:15Referring to what
00:14:16Vicky Guerrero said
00:14:16At the beginning of the show
00:14:17As MVP tries to go
00:14:19For another pinfall
00:14:20And Finley rolls the shoulder
00:14:21Out realizing
00:14:22He's in trouble
00:14:22And what that was
00:14:23That if Undertaker
00:14:24Batista lays a finger
00:14:26On edge
00:14:26Their chances of
00:14:27Regaining the title
00:14:28Will go up in smoke
00:14:29And as I watch this match
00:14:30Shoulders down
00:14:31Finley is a master
00:14:32Of countering maneuvers
00:14:34And I think that's why
00:14:34MVP's having such a hard time
00:14:37In getting a victory
00:14:39Over Finley
00:14:39But keep in mind
00:14:40What happens
00:14:41Every time Finley
00:14:42Counters a maneuver
00:14:43The clock ticks away
00:14:44More time goes by
00:14:46Great point
00:14:46We're at six and a half
00:14:47Minutes and counting
00:14:48Shoulders down
00:14:49And Finley again
00:14:50Rolls the shoulder up
00:14:51And MVP perhaps
00:14:52Getting more frustrated
00:14:53Needs to try to take
00:14:55Finley out
00:14:56As quick as possible
00:14:57And once that frustration
00:14:59Goes in
00:15:01And you see MVP
00:15:02Looking at the clock
00:15:03He realizes
00:15:04That this match
00:15:05Has gone on
00:15:06Way too long
00:15:07For his liking
00:15:08Again a huge opportunity
00:15:09For perhaps one of these
00:15:10Gentlemen
00:15:11To become the number one
00:15:12Contender for the world
00:15:13Championship
00:15:14Clock continues to move
00:15:17Toward the seven
00:15:18Seven minute mark
00:15:19Of this match
00:15:20Finley's in trouble
00:15:22MVP trying to wear
00:15:24Down the former
00:15:25United States champion
00:15:26I find it very difficult
00:15:28To believe that
00:15:29The other superstars
00:15:30Later in the show
00:15:31Can't beat seven minutes
00:15:33This match has got to end
00:15:34For one of these two men
00:15:35Very very quickly
00:15:36Well that's because
00:15:37It's an incredibly
00:15:38Competitive matchup
00:15:40These two superstars
00:15:41So evenly matched
00:15:43MVP the United States champion
00:15:45Finley the former
00:15:46United States champ
00:15:47And remember
00:15:47You can win this matchup
00:15:49Via submission
00:15:50Pinfall
00:15:51Countout
00:15:51Or disqualification
00:15:52As MVP tries
00:15:54To take Finley out
00:15:55And such a huge opportunity
00:15:57In my opinion
00:15:58To go to the Royal Rumble
00:16:00To get a shot
00:16:00At the World Heavyweight Championship
00:16:02And both of these men
00:16:03Know that
00:16:04You may never get
00:16:04Another opportunity
00:16:05To battle for the world title
00:16:06They don't come around
00:16:07Very often
00:16:08Clock ticking away
00:16:09Toward the eight minute mark
00:16:11Oh MVP
00:16:12Kick to the head
00:16:13MVP needs to go for a cover
00:16:15And he does
00:16:16Hooks the leg
00:16:16Two count and a kick out
00:16:18You need to go for a cover
00:16:18Every single time
00:16:19You have the opportunity
00:16:20To cover
00:16:21And Finley just trying
00:16:23To battle back
00:16:24Into this thing
00:16:24MVP has controlled
00:16:26This matchup
00:16:26Throughout much of it
00:16:28Past the eight minute mark
00:16:30This is all about speed
00:16:31It's all about timing
00:16:32The faster you get a pin
00:16:34The more of a chance
00:16:35You have
00:16:36To get that opportunity
00:16:37Here's another
00:16:38Oh another cover
00:16:39And another kick out
00:16:40By Finley
00:16:40And Finley realized
00:16:42That every time
00:16:42His shoulder goes to the mat
00:16:43His chances at a world title
00:16:45Slip away
00:16:46And Finley
00:16:48Driving that elbow
00:16:50Into the temple
00:16:50Working on the right arm
00:16:53Of MVP
00:16:54And Michael
00:16:54You made a great point
00:16:55That these two men
00:16:56Are so evenly matched
00:16:57That it's very difficult
00:16:59For one
00:16:59To defeat the other
00:17:01In a quick time
00:17:03This is what we talked
00:17:04About earlier
00:17:04Finley's style
00:17:05Perhaps not conducive
00:17:07To this type of a matchup
00:17:08Where time is of the essence
00:17:09Finley hoping for a submission here
00:17:12Trying to wear the left arm
00:17:13Of MVP down
00:17:14With the United States
00:17:15Champion tap out
00:17:16That's what Finley's looking for
00:17:18Referee Jimmy Cordero
00:17:20Is in perfect position
00:17:21Well look at the agony
00:17:22And the pain
00:17:23On MVP's face
00:17:24But he has so much heart
00:17:26He is such a tough individual
00:17:28That he's not going to
00:17:29Submit that easily
00:17:309-10 and counting
00:17:32Matchup will set the pace
00:17:33For the rest of the night
00:17:34In the beat the clock
00:17:35Challenge
00:17:35Nobody home
00:17:36Finley goes shoulder first
00:17:37Into the steel post
00:17:38Could be the opening
00:17:39MVP needs
00:17:40Can MVP capitalize on it
00:17:42Can he capitalize
00:17:44On moving
00:17:45And yes he did
00:17:46But he's got to have
00:17:47A cover right here
00:17:47Here's the cover
00:17:48With a wherewithal to get his leg
00:17:53On the bottom rope
00:17:54What an unfortunate situation
00:17:56Hey hey
00:17:57Hey Hornswoggle just
00:17:58Hornswoggle tosses the shillelagh in
00:18:00Referee distracted
00:18:01Another shillelagh used
00:18:03Here's the cover
00:18:04Hook to the leg
00:18:05Finley has set the pace
00:18:07At 9 minutes
00:18:0846 seconds
00:18:09That's the time to beat
00:18:11The winner of this match
00:18:12Finley
00:18:13And Hornswoggle pay dividends
00:18:16And say what you want
00:18:18I've always said
00:18:19However you can get a victory
00:18:21You get one
00:18:22And with the opportunity
00:18:23That they have
00:18:24The chairman
00:18:26Mr. McMahon
00:18:28Wait a second
00:18:29A rare SmackDown appearance
00:18:34The winner of this match
00:18:35Plenty of politicians
00:18:35Buy their souls
00:18:36For us all
00:18:37About this
00:18:38And won't fight
00:18:41Their place
00:18:42In the running
00:18:42But they're strangled
00:18:45Wrapped a finger
00:18:45Now a boy
00:18:46Cusses
00:18:47It's just a matter
00:18:47Of time
00:18:48Cause you've got
00:18:49No chance
00:18:51No chance at hell
00:18:54You've got
00:18:56No chance
00:18:57No chance at hell
00:19:01You've got
00:19:02No chance
00:19:03That is the tough love I was talking about.
00:19:14He really does love his children.
00:19:16Sometimes Mr. McMahon doesn't always show it, but he did right there.
00:19:21Well, Mr. McMahon is static, and here's the reason why.
00:19:27Finley and MVP embroiled in a great battle.
00:19:30It looked like Finley was going to lose this matchup following the kick to the head.
00:19:35But the veteran had the wherewithal to get his foot on the bottom rope to break the three count.
00:19:39And meanwhile, up and down to the referee, a shillelagh came in from out of nowhere.
00:19:44A shillelagh that MVP would have liked to have used.
00:19:50Watch Hornswaggle.
00:19:52After one shillelagh went to the ring, causing the distraction, the second use by Finley.
00:19:56And Finley steps the pace, picking up the win over MVP.
00:20:01Nine minutes, 46 seconds.
00:20:04Is anybody going to be able to beat the clock tonight?
00:20:06Well, we'll find out if it's coming up, beat the clock challenge.
00:20:10Those gentlemen in the screen right there, Rey Mysterio, The Undertaker, Batista,
00:20:14all have an opportunity to go to the Royal Rumble.
00:20:17But can they beat the clock?
00:20:19And now, the WWE Smack of the Night is brought to you by the Auto Parts Experts at AutoZone.
00:20:30Get in the zone, AutoZone.
00:20:33Wow, Jamie, this is a really nice restaurant.
00:20:35I told you only the best, there you go.
00:20:36I'll have the belly up for a girl.
00:20:38Hello, welcome.
00:20:40I am Gregoire, your waiter.
00:20:43May I start you with something to drink, perhaps from the wine list?
00:20:47Why don't you go ahead and get me a complete bottle of this Marlott here, please?
00:20:52Yes, sir.
00:20:54See, Michelle, I think that's what you don't understand.
00:20:57There's a lot of special stuff about me.
00:20:59One of my favorite things to do in my pastime, Michelle, is I love magic.
00:21:03Magic?
00:21:04Yeah, actually, I've been practicing all week, Michelle.
00:21:07I've got a few tricks I want to show you.
00:21:09Check this out, Michelle.
00:21:11Are you ready?
00:21:11All right, it's going to be like, abracadabra.
00:21:17Can I get the check, please?
00:21:22Don't make things went quite as Jamie Noble was playing.
00:21:26Sometimes when you're nervous, those things happen.
00:21:30And here comes Chuck Palombo with his friend, Michelle McCool.
00:21:35Chuck Palombo has been a bit frustrated as of late.
00:21:49He's lost three straight matches to Jamie Noble.
00:21:51And the reason for the date between Noble and Michelle McCool you just saw is because Jamie Noble told Michelle,
00:21:56Hey, if I beat Chuck Palombo for a third time, you go out on a date with me.
00:22:01Michelle reluctantly agreed.
00:22:02Noble won the third matchup.
00:22:05Hence the reason for the date.
00:22:06And I can only imagine how difficult it was for Chuck Palombo to have to sit at home and watch his friend, as you like to say,
00:22:14be out with another guy, especially a guy like Jamie Noble.
00:22:17How good does Michelle McCool look?
00:22:19Can you imagine if you had to watch, if she was your friend, you had to watch her go out with Noble, that little pitfall?
00:22:24True.
00:22:24And also the fact that it was Chuck Palombo's fault that Michelle McCool had to go out with Jamie Noble.
00:22:31I mean, if he would have won, then none of that would have happened.
00:22:33And she's missing next, the team of Victoria and Kenny Dykstra.
00:22:39We want to talk about cups.
00:22:41This is your first opportunity, really, to sit here at ringside and get to experience Kenny Dykstra and Victoria.
00:22:47Well, I mean, from what you've told me, she wears the pants of the family.
00:22:53Oh, she's starting the relationship.
00:22:54She does.
00:22:55I mean, let's be honest.
00:22:57So, mixed tag team action.
00:22:58Kenny Dykstra and Victoria against Chuck Palombo and Michelle McCool.
00:23:02And it's going to be interesting to see if Chuck Palombo can handle that frustration he's been feeling in recent weeks in this matchup
00:23:09and really use it to his advantage here tonight.
00:23:11Well, you make up a good point.
00:23:12It's called jealousy is a tough emotion to let go when you're having to compete.
00:23:18And this is their job.
00:23:19You've got to put it on the wayside and compete.
00:23:22So, it's Kenny Dykstra and Chuck Palombo starting things off.
00:23:25These two have been a fierce rivalry over the past few months as well.
00:23:28First cover of the matchup and a kick out by Dykstra.
00:23:30Dykstra, the young 21-year-old, a ton of potential.
00:23:34Looking to make a name for himself and an impact here.
00:23:38Oh, this is entertaining.
00:23:40That'll wait, Colombo.
00:23:41A big right hand by Dykstra.
00:23:43This is a great word for Kenny Dykstra.
00:23:45I've always thought that he's going to be one of the bigger superstars in the very near future.
00:23:50Colombo, and that is what Colombo's about right there.
00:23:52Full throttle, straight ahead, all power.
00:23:57Maybe he's trying to impress his friend a little bit in this match.
00:24:01Perhaps, and this is a mixed tag team matchup, meaning that Michelle is supposed to come in now
00:24:05to take on Victoria.
00:24:07To Victoria not too wise to jump on Chuck Palombo.
00:24:10And look at the double jump between Chuck and Michelle.
00:24:13Here's the cover.
00:24:14Shoulders down and a kick out.
00:24:16Michelle and Victoria have had a lot of problems in recent months.
00:24:21Never forget when Michelle made fun of Victoria's boyfriend, Kenny Dykstra.
00:24:26A little blur on the locker room area.
00:24:29And I do remember watching that at home, and I enjoyed it.
00:24:34Who wouldn't enjoy these two together?
00:24:36Tremendous athleticism.
00:24:38Did you see that backflip of Michelle McCool?
00:24:40Tremendous athlete.
00:24:42And Victoria, great athlete in her own right, former two-time women's champion.
00:24:46The divas on both brands are tremendously athletic, especially these two in the ring right now.
00:24:54Victoria dragging Michelle to the center of the ring.
00:24:57Here's the cover.
00:24:57And you heard the referee, he's got the shoulders are down and a kick out at two.
00:25:03No problem.
00:25:04Is that me, huh?
00:25:05And Victoria tells everybody what to do.
00:25:07Yeah.
00:25:08Right there.
00:25:08Bosses everybody around.
00:25:09Tried to boss the referee around.
00:25:11Charles Robinson asserting his authority.
00:25:13There's a leg drop right across the left arm.
00:25:17And Victoria.
00:25:18I caught it, baby!
00:25:20Nobody likes you, Michelle!
00:25:21You got it, baby!
00:25:22People call Victoria nuts, and she may very well be.
00:25:24But is it a psychological throw?
00:25:25That's my question.
00:25:26Where is she really out there?
00:25:27I certainly wonder if it is, because I don't think she's as crazy as people think that Victoria is.
00:25:34What a belly-to-belly by Michelle, who would love to make a tag to her partner, Chuck Palombo.
00:25:40And Chuck is on the outside, desperate to get in, and desperate to impress his friend.
00:25:46Tag made.
00:25:47You saw when Victoria made the tag, automatically Plumbo was allowed into the ring.
00:25:52Man-on-man, woman-on-woman, and this mixed tag.
00:25:54T-Match-up!
00:25:56Kip to the face!
00:25:57Palombo reeling, but not for long!
00:26:01Tremendous throw by Palombo.
00:26:04Sometimes when you're young and you're inexperienced like Kenny Dykstra, those things happen.
00:26:09Oh, caught in midair!
00:26:11Power hooks both legs!
00:26:13Oh, and a kick out by Dykstra!
00:26:15The size and power of Chuck Palombo dominating Dykstra at this juncture.
00:26:20And now sizing Kenny up!
00:26:22And there's the quickness of Dykstra!
00:26:24Rolling out of the way!
00:26:25Could be the opening that Dykstra needs!
00:26:26I think the psyche of Chuck Palombo could ill afford another loss here tonight.
00:26:32Without a doubt, Chuck Palombo is desperate to get a victory.
00:26:35Neckbreaker, hook for the leg, may have a two-count kickoff!
00:26:38To stop that losing streak that he's been on.
00:26:41Major losing streak for Palombo.
00:26:44Dykstra in the driver's seat.
00:26:47From the sound of things, Kenny Dykstra, a huge crowd favorite here on SmackDown.
00:26:52Really?
00:26:52Right hand by Palombo, drilling Dykstra.
00:26:56Palombo looking for the opening.
00:26:58Top rope!
00:27:00Superplex!
00:27:01Rattles the ring!
00:27:02If you can get it covered, this thing could be over.
00:27:06Or if you could get a tag, you could perhaps get your team back in it.
00:27:08And Dykstra needs to make it to his corner.
00:27:11To try to get Victoria into this matchup, Chuck tries, perhaps, to get Michelle in.
00:27:16Well, both Divas want in.
00:27:22Here comes Victoria, and here comes Michelle.
00:27:25And Michelle to the top rope, and look at this!
00:27:27Look at Michelle McCool!
00:27:29Crossbody, rolling through, following up with a clothesline.
00:27:33You're right, great teamwork between Michelle and Chuck Palombo.
00:27:37Never seen so much aerial action from Michelle McCool, like we are tonight.
00:27:40And there's another example.
00:27:42But she is impressive.
00:27:43Absolutely, I think she's gotten so much better over the last couple of years!
00:27:47What a shot!
00:27:49Dykstra running his mouth, but look out!
00:27:52Victoria, looking to take advantage of the distraction!
00:27:57Oh, what a kick!
00:27:59Into the cover!
00:28:00Hooks the leg!
00:28:03One, two, three!
00:28:04It's over!
00:28:04The distraction by Dykstra helps he and Victoria win!
00:28:08No winners in the match.
00:28:09The team of Victoria and Kenny Dykstra!
00:28:13Give Michelle credit, she kicked Kenny Dykstra, but in the end, it cost them the match.
00:28:19And that is what Chuck Palombo is upset about.
00:28:23Kenny Dykstra providing the distraction, it allowed Victoria to pick up the victory.
00:28:28Get it!
00:28:29Get it!
00:28:30I'm sorry!
00:28:31I am so sick of you!
00:28:35You can't do nothing right!
00:28:38This ain't about friends.
00:28:41You cost us the match!
00:28:43I'm sorry!
00:28:45Tell you what, you can stay here.
00:28:47I'm riding home in here.
00:28:48A frustrated Chuck Palombo.
00:28:54You can understand the frustration.
00:28:59And now leaving without Michelle McCool.
00:29:05And this may be something that Chuck Palombo regrets in the very near future.
00:29:09I know I wouldn't leave her in the ring.
00:29:15I know I wouldn't leave her in the ring.
00:29:16I know I wouldn't leave her in the ring.
00:29:18I know I'd like more cream in my coffee.
00:29:25Send it back and get it straight.
00:29:29Do you understand what you're doing?
00:29:44What you're doing?
00:29:46Do you understand what you are doing to the Guerrero family?
00:29:51This relationship that you're having,
00:29:56it's tearing the Guerrero family apart.
00:29:59That's what's going on, Vicky.
00:30:02What do you want?
00:30:04I put you in Beat the Clock Challenge.
00:30:07You know what I want, Vicky?
00:30:17I want to roll back the hands of time, Vicky.
00:30:20That's what I want.
00:30:22That's what I really want, Vicky.
00:30:24I want something...
00:30:27I want something that I guess I just can't have.
00:30:32That's what I want.
00:30:37We are back on Friday Night SmackDown, the time to beat.
00:30:47Nine minutes, 46 seconds set by Finlay in the Beat the Clock Challenge.
00:30:51Can any superstar beat the clock?
00:30:53What's riding is a number one contender opportunity
00:30:56to face the world champion at the Royal Rumble.
00:31:00This bout is a Beat the Clock Challenge match scheduled for one fall.
00:31:07Ooh, Chavo.
00:31:10Ooh, Chavo.
00:31:12Outroaching the regular scrim in El Paso, Texas.
00:31:15Queen, 215 pounds.
00:31:17Chavo, get it out!
00:31:20A fired up Chavo Guerrero tonight with a huge opportunity coach to beat the clock
00:31:24and have a chance at the world title at the Royal Rumble.
00:31:27And let's keep in mind right now, Chavo has no idea who he's gonna be facing in the next few moments.
00:31:33Chavo Guerrero's opponent a mystery, but the one thing that's not a mystery is the way to win the Beat the Clock Challenge.
00:31:39Pinfall, submission, count out, misqualification.
00:31:42If Chavo Guerrero or his opponent can do that in under nine minutes and 46 seconds,
00:31:47they will set the pace, become the pace setter here tonight on Friday Night SmackDown.
00:31:51And I thought that first match between MVP and Finley went too long.
00:31:56I don't think that that time is going to stand up.
00:32:01Who is Chavo's opponent?
00:32:02Who's it gonna be?
00:32:07And his opponent from Japan.
00:32:09Right, 190 pounds.
00:32:11Funaki!
00:32:12Well, Chavo happy with his opponent, Funaki, but let's not forget, Funaki's a former Cruiserweight Champion coach.
00:32:17And in the Beat the Clock Challenge, it only takes three.
00:32:20One, two, three, to win the match and set the pace.
00:32:24And because of the way that this matchup will go,
00:32:27fast-paced action from both of these individuals,
00:32:29you could see either Chavo or Funaki really beat the clock here in this matchup.
00:32:37And Chavo Guerrero and Funaki set to kick things off in this Beat the Clock Challenge.
00:32:42The clock has begun.
00:32:43We are under nine minutes and 46 seconds.
00:32:45The time to beat.
00:32:46And you saw Chavo glance up at the clock.
00:32:48Gonna be a lot of clock-watching in this matchup.
00:32:51Remember, pinfall, submission, count-out, disqualification,
00:32:55all ways to beat the clock.
00:32:57Ooh!
00:32:58What an uppercut!
00:32:59Quick cover!
00:33:00Hook of the leg and a kick-out.
00:33:01Great strategy so far by Chavo.
00:33:02Certainly, very quick getting his moves in.
00:33:06Hook of the leg again.
00:33:07Because Chavo understands that the quicker he gets it done,
00:33:10the better he has at getting to the Royal Rumble and facing the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:33:15You see the clock counting down.
00:33:16Almost nine minutes remaining.
00:33:18Chavo's got to beat the time set by Finley.
00:33:20Chavo, who's been embroiled in a rivalry with ECW Champion CM Punk,
00:33:24and Punk turns his...
00:33:25Oh!
00:33:26His attention tonight to the beat the clock challenge.
00:33:29And a possibility at the World Title.
00:33:31And keep in mind, Rey Mysterio, The Undertaker, Batista,
00:33:34all watching backstage knowing they have an opportunity still to come here on SmackDown.
00:33:39Roll up, hooks the leg, shoulders down.
00:33:41Does Chavo have him know?
00:33:42A kick-out by Funaki.
00:33:43It's been Chavo all offense.
00:33:45It is hard for these superstars to miss the clock.
00:33:48That huge clock in the background that Chavo just glanced at.
00:33:51The time ticking away.
00:33:53Precious minutes ticking away.
00:33:55Chavo looks at the clock again.
00:33:56Again!
00:33:57A kick-out by Funaki.
00:33:58Which would you either have?
00:33:59An early match like Chavo's and Finley's?
00:34:02Or a later match to know what time you have to beat?
00:34:05I'm not sure.
00:34:06I think you can look at it both ways.
00:34:07Funaki!
00:34:08That's what I'm talking about.
00:34:09Just like that.
00:34:10As quick as that.
00:34:11You can beat the clock.
00:34:13Funaki head scissors.
00:34:14Flips Chavo right way across the rink.
00:34:16Funaki now the aggressor.
00:34:17Hooks the leg.
00:34:18Chavo.
00:34:19His leg grabbing the second rope.
00:34:20And you mentioned Chavo happy with the selection.
00:34:23But I think he's seeing now that Funaki is no Rolo.
00:34:26Chavo Guerrero, the third generation superstar.
00:34:29The famous Guerrero wrestling family.
00:34:31Off that tilt-the-whirl slam.
00:34:32Hooks the leg.
00:34:33And a kick-out.
00:34:34Can you imagine if Chavo wins the beat the clock challenge?
00:34:37Again the couple.
00:34:38Come on!
00:34:39And what a huge opportunity for this former Cruiserweight champion.
00:34:44And Chavo screaming at referee Mickey Henson.
00:34:47Wants a quicker count to three.
00:34:49Referee Mickey Henson call this right down the middle.
00:34:52Same pace for each of these gentlemen.
00:34:54Boom!
00:34:55And a big uppercut by the former six-time Cruiserweight champion.
00:34:58And again a cover.
00:34:59And again a kick-out by Funaki.
00:35:03Time ticking away.
00:35:057.19 left for one of these men to beat the clock.
00:35:08The pace set by Finley earlier on.
00:35:10Funaki may have him.
00:35:11A pick-roll up.
00:35:12Hook to the leg.
00:35:13And a kick-out again by Chavo.
00:35:14And Michael, you know it's always a distraction of...
00:35:17Cover again.
00:35:18Having to look at the clock.
00:35:19Having to know what you have to beat.
00:35:21To me, that's an added distraction.
00:35:23The problem is, it is a distraction coach.
00:35:25But you have to have enough in yourself to not worry about the clock.
00:35:29And to try to put your opponent away as quickly as possible.
00:35:32Hook to the leg.
00:35:33Hooks the head.
00:35:34And Funaki kicked out.
00:35:35You make a great point.
00:35:36You have to be able to focus and know what your game plan is when you go in.
00:35:41Both of these superstars are veterans.
00:35:42They've been around the ring wars.
00:35:44Chavo and Funaki know what they have to do to win this match-up.
00:35:47It's just a matter of doing it in enough time.
00:35:49Forearm to the face.
00:35:50Funaki kicks out.
00:35:51For Funaki right now, it's all about survival.
00:35:54And I think they need to understand, it's not about beating 946.
00:35:57It's about setting a new time that the other superstars have to beat.
00:36:02Again, the winner will face Edge for the world title at the Rumble.
00:36:07Jackknife.
00:36:08Look at this cover.
00:36:09And a kick-out.
00:36:10By Funaki at two.
00:36:11And you see, perhaps, frustration beginning to build in Chavo Guerrero.
00:36:16Certainly, Chavo getting very, very frustrated with frustration can come added pressure on yourself.
00:36:23And not only that.
00:36:24When you become frustrated, you may open yourself up to a mistake.
00:36:27And a quick mistake may allow Funaki to pick up the win.
00:36:30And all you need is a quick one, two, three.
00:36:32And right now, they've got plenty of time to beat that 946.
00:36:35Oh, look at it.
00:36:36Roll through.
00:36:37He's got him.
00:36:38Shoulders down.
00:36:39One, two, three, coach.
00:36:40You can win submission, count out, disqualification.
00:36:43That's what it's all about.
00:36:44Funaki.
00:36:45That's what I'm talking about.
00:36:46And Chavo had to grab the rope.
00:36:48You saw Chavo turn his attention for the moment to the referee.
00:36:51And Funaki capitalized and almost picked up the win.
00:36:54And that's the mistake you were just talking about.
00:36:56It only takes one for you to get pinned.
00:36:59Chavo continues to look at the clock, which is ticking away.
00:37:03The time to beat, 946.
00:37:05One of these men have to win in 518.
00:37:07Or less.
00:37:08As the clock ticks down towards zero.
00:37:11Chavo continually glancing at it.
00:37:14Funaki.
00:37:15Uh-oh.
00:37:16That's right.
00:37:17May have it.
00:37:18Funaki may stay the time to beat.
00:37:19The kick out.
00:37:20And that would have been a very difficult time to beat.
00:37:23And Seguri to the back of the head.
00:37:25Funaki looks at the clock, grabs the leg, the cover, and a kick out by Chavo.
00:37:29And what do you think Rey Mysterio, The Undertaker, Batista, are all thinking backstage right now as the clock continues to run.
00:37:36I'll tell you what they're thinking.
00:37:37Let the match keep going.
00:37:38Absolutely.
00:37:39Let 946 stay the time to beat.
00:37:42Oh!
00:37:43Funaki blocked the right hand.
00:37:45And Funaki with a big blow.
00:37:49Funaki giving Chavo one hell of a match.
00:37:51Cross body, level of press, hooks the leg, and a kick out at two with four and a half left in counting.
00:37:57No offense to Funaki, but I would consider this an upset if he defeats Chavo Guerrero.
00:38:02I think it'd be a huge upset.
00:38:03But an upset nonetheless, it doesn't matter.
00:38:05Set the pace.
00:38:06Have a chance to go to the rumble for the world title.
00:38:08Funaki, Chavo hanging on.
00:38:10Chavo's hanging on at the top rope.
00:38:13Great counter by Chavo Guerrero.
00:38:16Oh!
00:38:17Well, pulling the hair and doing what he needs to do, Chavo, to get the job done.
00:38:21And Chavo now another quick peek to that clock, Michael.
00:38:24Well, the time is under four minutes.
00:38:26Funaki in deep trouble.
00:38:29Look at Chavo Guerrero setting Funaki up.
00:38:32And a gory bomb face first goes Funaki.
00:38:35Could this be it?
00:38:36Hooks the leg, shoulders down.
00:38:38Chavo has set the new time to beat.
00:38:41Oh, this match, Chavo Guerrero.
00:38:51Six minutes and two seconds, the new time to beat for Chavo Guerrero.
00:38:54And I'll tell you, it's going to be a tough one to beat.
00:38:56It's going to be very difficult to beat that time.
00:38:59Chavo did an excellent job of keeping his offense intact and taking out Funaki.
00:39:04Chavo Guerrero very impressive in this matchup.
00:39:08He is in the driver's seat.
00:39:10Chavo Guerrero is the pace center.
00:39:13And think about this.
00:39:14Chavo could beat Edge at the Royal Rumble.
00:39:16Huge opportunity for Chavo Guerrero.
00:39:19And a huge opportunity for a number of other superstars tonight if they can beat the clock.
00:39:25Including that man Batista who cannot wait to get his hands on Edge.
00:39:29He has to beat six minutes and two seconds if he has an opportunity at the world title at the Rumble.
00:39:35Happy New Year everybody in SmackDown comes from Richmond, Virginia tonight.
00:39:41The beat the clock challenge is underway.
00:39:43The winner will face the world champion at the Royal Rumble.
00:39:47Chavo Guerrero has set the time to beat at six minutes and two seconds.
00:39:54This contest is a beat the clock challenge match scheduled for one fall.
00:40:05This contest is a beat the clock challenge.
00:40:34and Michael you know this man thrives on being the world heavyweight champion it is killing him
00:40:51not to be the champion and he wants another shot at it and not only that Batista wants revenge on
00:40:58edge Batista had the world title stolen from him at Armageddon in that triple threat match he had
00:41:05the title stolen from him two weeks ago by Edge and Vicky here on Smackdown and tonight Friday night
00:41:12Smackdown is sponsored by KFC's Sauceless Hot Wings spicy on the inside crunchy on the outside
00:41:19in by Verizon Wireless and sponsored by Bowflex and Batista is intense he's in his own
00:41:27Vicky Guerrero said tonight that he can't lay a finger on edge or his chances of regaining a title will go up in smoke
00:41:33the question is who will his opponent be that's the big question it beat the clock
00:41:38it makes all the difference in the world who the opponent is
00:41:42and his opponent come on out in New York
00:41:47weighing 221 pounds
00:41:50hurt
00:41:51hookings
00:41:52well Curt Hawkins one of Edge's buddies one of Edge's cronies one of the men that
00:41:56allowed Edge to steal the world championship from Batista at Armageddon
00:42:01and you saw the smile on Batista's face he's loving this and you know in his head that Batista thinks this could be a very very quick match
00:42:08well he's got to beat six minutes two seconds does Batista or
00:42:12Curt Hawkins in this one-on-one matchup for an opportunity to beat Edge for the world title at the Royal Rumble
00:42:19see that huge smile on the face of Batista
00:42:23wait a second Michael
00:42:24excuse me
00:42:24Batista
00:42:25hi
00:42:26pardon me
00:42:27um
00:42:28Teddy Long has an announcement regarding your match
00:42:31by pre-order of general manager Vicky Guerrero
00:42:38Batista
00:42:39Batista you will not only be facing Curt Hawkins you will also be facing Zack Ryder
00:42:45in a handicap match
00:42:48a handicap match
00:42:50well that changes everything
00:42:52you think
00:42:53it changes the entire compulsion of this matchup
00:42:56so Vicky Guerrero earlier tonight said that Undertaker and Batista
00:43:00cannot lay a finger on Edge
00:43:01are their chances of regaining the title of the welcome smoke
00:43:04now she's throwing even more of a curveball at Batista
00:43:07and Vicky may not always be fair but Michael she is the general manager
00:43:10you have to do what she says period
00:43:12listen Batista is not going to be one to complain
00:43:15he is going to try to beat the clock
00:43:17beat six minutes in two seconds
00:43:18whether it's a handicap match
00:43:20whether it's ten on one
00:43:21whether it's twenty on one
00:43:23but the odds have been stacked against the animal here tonight
00:43:26when you think about it though Batista would love to get his hands
00:43:28on both of these two
00:43:30because what they have done in past weeks
00:43:33costing him the World Heavyweight Championship
00:43:35and then of course the concerto
00:43:37that the three of them did to Batista a couple of weeks ago
00:43:40twice in the past month have caused Batista the world title
00:43:43the clock is underway
00:43:44the match is underway
00:43:45and here goes Batista
00:43:47looking to beat a time of six minutes and two seconds
00:43:49this is Batista's only opportunity
00:43:51to get back at the world title
00:43:52and Edge
00:43:53and Batista driving those shoulders into the gun
00:43:56of Zack Ryder
00:43:59the clock is counting down
00:44:01and you know Batista's not going to shy away
00:44:03from this handicap match at all
00:44:05Batista was going for the Batista bomb early
00:44:07there's the big back body drop
00:44:08and the antelope focused
00:44:09at least for the moment
00:44:11Batista showing a lot of smarts
00:44:14trying to end this thing quickly
00:44:15but when it's two on one
00:44:17it's very difficult to do that
00:44:18and here's the double team
00:44:19and you know how Vickie set up this matchup
00:44:21not only as handicap
00:44:22but allowing both men to be in the ring
00:44:24at the same time
00:44:25not having to tag one another in and out
00:44:26and Batista went across the ring
00:44:28Batista that time
00:44:31caught Zack Ryder
00:44:33but Hawkins was left standing
00:44:35Hawkins measuring his man
00:44:37Batista catches him in midair
00:44:39the animal Batista
00:44:41with five minutes left to count
00:44:42and he looks at the clock
00:44:43launches Hawkins into the turnbuckle
00:44:46Batista determined to beat the clock
00:44:49and you mentioned how many opportunities
00:44:51from behind
00:44:52are you going to have
00:44:54to get a shot
00:44:55at that world heavyweight championship
00:44:57Ryder and Hawkins effective
00:44:59here's the cover of the double team
00:45:01and Batista kicks out
00:45:02again the cover
00:45:03again the hook of the leg
00:45:04and again a kick out
00:45:05here's a question
00:45:06Hawkins and Ryder
00:45:08that's what I was just thinking
00:45:09beat the clock
00:45:10I have no idea
00:45:12I'm sure Vickie Guerrero
00:45:13has an answer for that as well
00:45:15four and a half left in counting
00:45:17and Ryder and Hawkins
00:45:19just picking apart Batista
00:45:20that was Curt Hawkins
00:45:23and now Zack Ryder
00:45:24with a foot to the throat
00:45:25the clock continues to count
00:45:28and you got to believe
00:45:29that the superstars coming up
00:45:30after this match
00:45:32love the fact
00:45:33that this turned into
00:45:34a handicap match
00:45:35and again the only way
00:45:35Batista gets his hands on edge
00:45:37is to win this match
00:45:39plain and simple
00:45:40four minutes left
00:45:41for the animal
00:45:42Batista whipped across the ring
00:45:44off the double team
00:45:45yeah if everybody
00:45:47missed it earlier
00:45:48the Undertaker and Batista
00:45:49cannot lay their hands
00:45:51on edge whatsoever
00:45:52well Batista started out
00:45:54like a hoss of fire
00:45:54but it's been all Ryder and Hawkins
00:45:56here's the cover
00:45:56kick out at two by the animal
00:45:58but it's two on one
00:46:00the odds are stacked against
00:46:02Batista
00:46:02thanks to general manager
00:46:04Vickie Guerrero
00:46:05the world champion
00:46:06Edge's lover
00:46:07they've been involved in a relationship
00:46:09for a couple of months now
00:46:11and look at kicking Batista out of the ring
00:46:13now remember
00:46:14you can win this via count out
00:46:16you can beat the clock via count out
00:46:18disqualification
00:46:19pick fall or submission
00:46:20and now we're under three and a half minutes
00:46:22and Batista is nowhere close
00:46:25to winning this match
00:46:26and referee Charles Robinson
00:46:27has begun to count
00:46:29as Batista battles back with the right hand
00:46:31to both Ryder and Hawkins
00:46:33the animal trying to build momentum
00:46:35as the clock ticks away
00:46:37and every second that ticks away
00:46:39Batista's world title chances tick away
00:46:42and Michael certainly the thought of revenge
00:46:44has left the mind of Batista
00:46:46now it's all about just winning
00:46:47to get the opportunity
00:46:49look at the double team
00:46:50Batista can't get in
00:46:51and there's the leg drop
00:46:52across the back of the head
00:46:53I'll say it is much
00:46:55here's the cover by Ryder
00:46:57hook to the leg
00:46:58he's got him
00:46:58and a kick out by Batista
00:47:00these two work so well together
00:47:02again a car
00:47:03and referee Charles Robinson
00:47:05doing a great job
00:47:06here's the cover again
00:47:08and a kick out by Batista
00:47:09Michael we're at two and a half minutes
00:47:12and Ryder and Hawkins
00:47:13are nowhere near stopping
00:47:14pounding on Batista
00:47:15and it seems like Hawkins and Ryder
00:47:17have had their marching orders
00:47:19given to them tonight
00:47:20directly from Vince
00:47:22directly from the general manager
00:47:24do not allow Batista to beat the clock
00:47:26the formula seems simple
00:47:28for Ryder and Hawkins
00:47:29and if they got those marching orders
00:47:31where those marching orders
00:47:33also include
00:47:34not beating that 602 time period
00:47:36oh and look at that
00:47:37nice snap there
00:47:38here's the cover
00:47:40hook to the leg
00:47:41and Batista kicks out
00:47:42great point you just made coach
00:47:44and look at this
00:47:46Batista rolling the shoulder out
00:47:47we're under two minutes
00:47:48Batista's time
00:47:50his opportunity at the title
00:47:51is quickly slipping away
00:47:53I can't remember the last time
00:47:56I saw Batista
00:47:57so dominated
00:47:59in a situation
00:48:02I understand that
00:48:04these two gentlemen
00:48:05Hawkins and Ryder
00:48:06don't even have to tag it out of the ring
00:48:08I get that too
00:48:09it's a two-on-one matchup
00:48:10and look at this
00:48:11the cover
00:48:13Batista in trouble
00:48:14hook to the leg
00:48:14and Batista kicks out at two
00:48:16if you would let me finish
00:48:17dominated in such a big situation
00:48:20minute and a half
00:48:22minute 19 and counting
00:48:24Batista must win this match
00:48:26in the next one minute
00:48:2714 seconds
00:48:28or his world title chances
00:48:30go up in smoke
00:48:31to use Vicky Guerrero's phrase

00:56:44but the bottom line is
00:56:45they are in a major role
00:56:46and three weeks ago
00:56:47at ACW
00:56:48Jimmy Wayne Yang and Shannon Moore

00:56:55and a little miscue
00:56:57between the champions
00:56:58along Jimmy Wayne Yang
00:57:00and Shannon Moore
00:57:01to pick up the victory
00:57:02and then this past Tuesday night

00:57:43Domino's sister
00:57:45you know
00:57:46I haven't been around a lot

00:57:49that Deuce and Domino
00:57:50would love to be
00:57:51here's the cover kick out
00:57:52considered in that

00:57:58they win this matchup
00:57:59Deuce and Domino
00:57:59the former Tag Team Champions
00:58:01that would be a unique reversal
00:58:05Jimmy Wayne Yang
00:58:06on the dropkick
00:58:07hooping and hollering
00:58:08in Richmond
00:58:09incredibly quick

00:58:29and Domino
00:58:30her brother took offense
00:58:32and I can't agree with

00:58:46they know Jimmy Wayne Yang
00:58:48and Shannon more well
00:58:49the way to beat these guys
00:58:50is to round them

01:03:48tonight
01:03:48Batista
01:03:49couldn't get it
01:03:50done
01:03:50the question

01:03:54can the Undertaker
01:03:55get it done
01:03:56Batista
01:04:02just did not

01:04:04coach
01:04:04he didn't
01:04:05get it done

01:04:06Vicky Guerrero
01:04:06the general manager
01:04:07stacked the deck
01:04:08against him
01:04:08I agree with that
01:04:09a hundred percent
01:04:10she made it a handicap match
01:04:11a two on one matchup
01:04:12not allowing Batista

01:04:14the animal
01:04:15was almost victorious
01:04:17Batista came

01:04:21and having an opportunity
01:04:22to beat Edge
01:04:23to the world title
01:04:23at the Rumble

01:07:38trying to keep

01:07:51looking to unload

01:07:53I agree with you
01:07:54100%
01:07:54the story of this
01:07:55matchup is this
01:07:56Undertaker must be
01:07:58six minutes and two
01:07:59seconds
01:08:00and not only Undertaker
01:08:01Mark Henry with the time

01:08:55counting both men out
01:08:57and look at Mark Henry
01:08:59battling back
01:09:01against the Undertaker
01:09:02here's a reversal
01:09:03Mark Henry
01:09:04he's been a guy
01:09:08getting back in the ring
01:09:09remember the rules
01:09:10a countout
01:09:11will cost you a chance
01:09:13to beat the clock
01:09:14and the Undertaker
01:09:15now is slitting back in
01:09:16and Matt Striker
01:09:17and there's the impact
01:09:20three minutes 45 seconds
01:09:25and counting for the
01:09:26Undertaker
01:09:26and Mark Henry
01:09:27to beat the clock
01:09:28and earn a world title
01:09:30opportunity at the Royal Rumble
01:09:31and you saw the Venom
01:09:33the Phenom
01:09:34he measures his man
01:09:36looking at the clock
01:09:37time after time
01:09:38and this is why
01:09:39the Undertaker
01:09:40is such the crafty Venom
01:09:41he's using the time
01:09:43realizing he's got time
01:09:44to wear his man down
01:09:46and pick up a victory
01:09:47and if the Undertaker
01:09:48does pick up a victory
01:09:50he will have earned
01:09:51his shot at the Royal Rumble
01:09:53vintage leg drop
01:09:54by the near 300 pounder
01:09:56Undertaker crawls back
01:09:57in the ring
01:09:58you see the clock
01:09:59in the left hand corner
01:10:00of your screen
01:10:00three minutes counting
01:10:02I'm not so sure
01:10:03it's taking his time
01:10:04Michael
01:10:04as it's needing
01:10:05to wear Mark Henry
01:10:06down in order to get
01:10:07the one, two, three
01:10:08oh Undertaker with a headbutt
01:10:12the best pure striker
01:10:15in the game
01:10:16targeting the shoulder
01:10:17of Mark Henry
01:10:18as we go under
01:10:20three minutes
01:10:21in the beat the clock
01:10:22challenge
01:10:22Chavo Guerrero
01:10:24has set the pace
01:10:25Undertaker and Mark Henry
01:10:26looking to beat it
01:10:27one, two, three
01:10:29one
01:10:29Undertaker's only opportunity
01:10:32to get to edge
01:10:33is to beat the clock
01:10:34remember what
01:10:35general manager
01:10:35Vicky Guerrero
01:10:36said earlier tonight
01:10:37if either one of these men
01:10:38lay a finger on edge
01:10:39their chance to regain
01:10:40the title
01:10:41will go up in smoke
01:10:42Undertaker going old school
01:10:46and Mark Henry
01:10:47cut him off at the pass
01:10:48and every time
01:10:49Mark Henry goes on
01:10:50the offense
01:10:51time ticks away
01:10:52for the Undertaker
01:10:54and I think all of these
01:10:55I think the Undertaker
01:10:56will need to change
01:10:58their tactics
01:10:58change their style
01:11:00because of the clock
01:11:01here's the cover
01:11:01by Mark Henry
01:11:02will he beat the clock
01:11:03no Undertaker
01:11:04rolls the shoulder
01:11:05at it 204
01:11:06and as Undertaker
01:11:07sat up
01:11:07his eyes went
01:11:08to the clock
01:11:09instinctively
01:11:10under two minutes
01:11:11the two minute warning
01:11:12so to speak
01:11:12for the Undertaker
01:11:14get one last
01:11:15cracking edge
01:11:15in the world title
01:11:16Michael where's
01:11:17the desperation
01:11:18where's the need
01:11:19to get it done
01:11:21quickly
01:11:21that's what I want
01:11:22to see
01:11:23and Mark Henry
01:11:24don't forget
01:11:25has an opportunity
01:11:25to beat the clock
01:11:26if he wins this
01:11:27he'll meet edge
01:11:28for the world title
01:11:28Mark Henry
01:11:31Matt Stryker
01:11:32the referee
01:11:33Mark Henry's manager
01:11:34for lack of a better term
01:11:35put in this matchup
01:11:37by the general manager
01:11:37Undertaker with the DDT
01:11:39and perhaps the last
01:11:40flurry left
01:11:41for the Phenom
01:11:42but he's got to get
01:11:44the cover
01:11:44Undertaker needs to cover
01:11:46a minute 22
01:11:47and counting
01:11:48for one of these men
01:11:50to beat the clock
01:11:51to beat the pace
01:11:52set by Chavo Guerrero
01:11:54both men to their feet
01:11:57Undertaker measuring
01:11:58his man
01:11:59Undertaker glancing
01:12:03glancing at the clock

01:14:48never counted the three count
01:14:50and I agree with you
01:14:51Matt Stryker
01:14:51had the three count
01:14:53The Undertaker
01:14:54had the clock
01:14:55beat
01:14:56but then you see
01:14:57the frustration
01:14:58on The Undertaker's face
01:15:00and that frustration
01:15:01shows me
01:15:02that The Undertaker
01:15:03now realizes
01:15:04that that opportunity
01:15:05is gone

01:18:36against
01:18:36we heard from Rey
01:18:38earlier tonight
01:18:39and he said that
01:18:40quickness is his style
01:18:41this is the way
01:18:42that Rey Mysterio
01:18:43likes to compete
01:18:44we'll see if it works
01:18:46here in just a moment
01:18:47Rey Mysterio
01:18:48psyched himself up
01:18:49beating
01:18:49beating off our fans
01:18:51here in Richmond, Virginia
01:18:52the first
01:18:53Smackdown of the new year

01:18:57one

01:18:58by the end of the night
01:18:59who will beat Edge

01:19:01at the Royal Rumble
01:19:02the numbers to remember
01:19:04there's three of them
01:19:05Michael
01:19:056-0-2
01:19:07an interesting
01:19:08play out of words
01:19:09Rey Mysterio
01:19:10still used to the 6-1-9
01:19:12but guess what
01:19:136-1-9 doesn't help
01:19:15Rey tonight
01:19:15because if he goes
01:19:166 minutes 19 seconds
01:19:17he's not going to the Rumble
01:19:19great point
01:19:19Rey Mysterio knows it
01:19:21but I want to know
01:19:22who his opponent
01:19:23is going to be
01:19:24and so does Rey
01:19:26who is ready to go
01:19:27and no matter who it is
01:19:29Mysterio will be focused
01:19:30on getting to the Royal Rumble
01:19:32what
01:19:34you guys are calling me
01:19:37from Toronto, Ontario, Canada
01:19:39ladies and gentlemen
01:19:40155
01:19:41he's the world
01:19:43anyway champion
01:19:45the ring of our superstar
01:19:47and
01:19:48wait a minute
01:19:51I don't know what you said
01:20:00I mean
01:20:01general manager
01:20:02Nikki Gallero
01:20:03she made the beat
01:20:04the top challenge tonight
01:20:05the winner
01:20:06will face Edge
01:20:07at the Royal Rumble
01:20:08but Edge is
01:20:10presented the competition
01:20:11Michael don't you get it
01:20:12it just hits me
01:20:14Edge is going to get
01:20:16his own hands dirty
01:20:18in order to
01:20:19not have Rey Mysterio
01:20:21at the Royal Rumble
01:20:22it's a brilliant move
01:20:25well that was very profound
01:20:27coach
01:20:27I'm glad you laid it all
01:20:28out of the line for us
01:20:29The Undertaker
01:20:31Batista already
01:20:32haven't beaten the clock
01:20:33Rey Mysterio
01:20:35obviously the biggest threat
01:20:37left for Edge
01:20:38Batista's been taken out of the picture
01:20:40Undertaker's been taken out of the picture
01:20:43so with his buddies Ryder and Hawkins at ringside
01:20:51Edge hoping that Mysterio doesn't beat the clock
01:20:55and did you just see Rey Mysterio's face
01:20:57I think Rey has
01:20:58it finally just hit him
01:20:59and look at Edge
01:21:01stalling for time
01:21:02in the ropes
01:21:03I hate to say it
01:21:04but a wise move by the champion
01:21:06Rey's got to beat 602
01:21:08and every time Edge ducks under those ropes
01:21:10the clock ticks away
01:21:11Chavo Guerrero
01:21:12and set the pace
01:21:13the time to beat
01:21:14and Edge toying almost with Mysterio
01:21:17and Mysterio needs to use his quickness
01:21:21and Edge
01:21:22Edge running from Rey
01:21:24keeping the clock moving
01:21:25it's like the old four quarters drill in basketball
01:21:29keep the clock going
01:21:30Edge is just stalling for time
01:21:32allowing the clock to tick away
01:21:34exactly
01:21:35on the outside
01:21:36smiling laughing
01:21:37Joe and Hawkins and Ryder
01:21:38exactly what a world champion
01:21:40is made of
01:21:40remember Edge cannot afford to be counted out
01:21:43because if Edge is counted out here Mysterio will beat the clock
01:21:46but Edge
01:21:47looks like that old two minute growing football
01:21:49taking Mickey Henson almost to the grid
01:21:52to the grid before he gets in the ring and breaks the count
01:21:54well you can see right now
01:21:56and look at Mysterio
01:21:57Edge into the ring Rey Mysterio
01:22:00Hurricane Rada by Mysterio
01:22:02and Mysterio's got Edge really
01:22:04there's the dropkick
01:22:05under five minutes to go
01:22:07and Mysterio the ultimate underdog
01:22:09the former world champion
01:22:10trying to beat the clock
01:22:11and Edge bounced off that second turnbuckle
01:22:17and Rey Mysterio measuring his man
01:22:19can he beat the clock
01:22:20there's that
01:22:21here we go
01:22:22he could get him
01:22:24and a kick out
01:22:25and two by Edge
01:22:26four and a half to go
01:22:28for Rey Mysterio
01:22:30and a boot to the face
01:22:32and every time Edge knocks Mysterio down and out like that
01:22:36precious seconds tick off the clock for Mysterio
01:22:39the clock continuing to count down
01:22:43and now Edge in complete control
01:22:44and remember
01:22:45Edge doesn't have to beat the clock
01:22:47as he sets Mysterio outside the ring
01:22:49and Hawkins and Ryder
01:22:52taking advantage of Mysterio
01:22:54as Edge distracted the referee
01:22:56Edge had to
01:22:58because if the referee had caught Hawkins and Ryder
01:23:00could have risked disqualification
01:23:02which meant Mysterio would have won
01:23:04I just mentioned how brilliant the world champion is
01:23:06that's why Edge is the world champion
01:23:09he is the ultimate opportunist
01:23:10glancing at the clock
01:23:113.45 left
01:23:13Mysterio beats the count in
01:23:15but for Edge
01:23:16the assault begins
01:23:18every time he keeps Rey off the offense
01:23:21the clock kicks away
01:23:22and for the world
01:23:23Batista
01:23:24Batista
01:23:25the animal
01:23:26taking out Ryder and Hawkins
01:23:28Batista
01:23:29getting back at Edge
01:23:31remember Batista can't touch Edge
01:23:33but he can do damage without it
01:23:35but he can do damage without it
01:23:35but he can do damage without it
01:23:39the clean house
01:23:40Edge's buddies
01:23:43from the high Mysterio
01:23:46here comes Mysterio
01:23:49and a 6-1-9
01:23:51missed his Edge
01:23:51stepped out of the way
01:23:52Mysterio going for the win
01:23:53three minutes and counting
01:23:59for Rey Mysterio
01:24:00Batista's even the odds
01:24:02for his friend Mysterio
01:24:03there's the quickness
01:24:05close body
01:24:06lateral press
01:24:07hooks the leg
01:24:07will Mysterio beat the clock?
01:24:09no not right now
01:24:09and Michael you were right
01:24:10Batista couldn't touch Edge
01:24:12but he did almost enough
01:24:14for Edge to get beaten
01:24:15if Batista had touched Edge
01:24:16he would have never had an opportunity
01:24:17to ever get his hands on Edge
01:24:19as Mysterio delivers that kick
01:24:21to the back of the head
01:24:22and Rey Mysterio perhaps closing in
01:24:25on beating the clock
01:24:27a great counter
01:24:31they were under two and a half minutes
01:24:33and that counter by Edge
01:24:35and now the assault by the world champion
01:24:38may have cost Mysterio
01:24:40a world title opportunity
01:24:42wait a second
01:24:44The Undertaker
01:24:45what the heck is going on?
01:24:59what is going on?
01:25:02the clock is kicking away
01:25:03what's happening?
01:25:06he can't see
01:25:07I can't see in front of me
01:25:08Undertaker's gone
01:25:11Edge is in trouble
01:25:12Mysterio realizes it
01:25:14he can't see in front of me
01:25:15check the clock
01:25:16Mysterio
01:25:196-1
01:25:20Rey is going to do it
01:25:22the big splash
01:25:25he did it
01:25:27don't get it
01:25:28Rey Mysterio
01:25:30got on the rumble
01:25:31Rey Mysterio
01:25:37the ultimate underdog
01:25:39beat the clock
01:25:40Rey Mysterio
01:25:42will face Edge for the world title
01:25:44at the Royal Rumble
01:25:45you wonder if Rey Mysterio
01:25:48had enough in him
01:25:49to get it done
01:25:50in the allotted amount of time
01:25:52but in the end
01:25:53Rey Mysterio
01:25:54was able
01:25:54to beat the clock
01:25:56perhaps Edge's plan
01:25:57backfired
01:25:58Rey Mysterio
01:26:00is the number one contender
01:26:02for the world championship
01:26:04well by degree of general manager
01:26:07Mickey Guerrero
01:26:08Batista and Undertaker
01:26:09were not allowed to touch Edge
01:26:10but they could do damage
01:26:11nonetheless
01:26:12first Batista
01:26:13taking out Edge's cronies
01:26:15Hawkins and Ryder
01:26:16and then the feet on
01:26:18The Undertaker
01:26:19would make his presence felt
01:26:20and as only The Undertaker can
01:26:23lights out in the arena
01:26:26and when they came back on
01:26:29Edge was prone to position
01:26:30for 6.9
01:26:32allowing Rey Mysterio
01:26:34after he realized
01:26:36what was happening
01:26:37to connect with his
01:26:38patented maneuver
01:26:39following it up
01:26:41with a major cross flash
01:26:42Rey Mysterio
01:26:44heading to the rumble
01:26:45with a world title on the line
01:26:48can the WWE's biggest underdog
01:26:55accomplish the impossible again
01:26:57can Rey Mysterio
01:27:00with the world title
01:27:02versus Edge
01:27:03at the Royal Rumble
