00:02:29He wanted to
00:02:31Entertain the fans
00:02:32Throughout the year
00:02:33He wanted
00:02:33Wants to take on
00:02:34Some of his great rivals
00:02:36Like he did
00:02:36At Saturday night's
00:02:37Main event
00:02:37Against Shinsuke Nak
00:02:38Nakamura
00:02:39Why rob the fans
00:02:42Of these moments
00:02:43Yeah
00:02:44Wouldn't that be great
00:02:45Right
00:02:45Simple as that
00:02:48I'm sick and tired
00:02:50Of all those old timers
00:02:52Around here
00:02:52Overstay
00:02:53Saying they're welcome
00:02:54Chasing one moment
00:02:56After another
00:02:58Those moments
00:02:59They belong to me
00:03:01Bill Goldberg was chasing another
00:03:06moment and I took it away from him John Cena was
00:03:11chasing moment after moment for a full year but what are they going to talk about?
00:03:16now they're going to talk about when he gave up to me
00:03:21in his very last match
00:03:26A.J. I bet he had beautiful ideas
00:03:31about this long very exciting emotional retirement
00:03:36or farewell tour whatever he wants to call it
00:03:38I'm not interested in him
00:03:41taking the moments away
00:03:43that belong to me
00:03:46talking about old timers
00:03:51I think you fall in that category as well

00:11:47There's Adam Pierce.
00:11:48There's Adam Pierce.
00:11:49Okay, all right, great.
00:11:51All right, bye-bye.
00:11:52Adam.
00:11:54I'm coming to you to say, I'm officially declaring myself.
00:11:59As an entrant in this year's Royal Rumble.
00:12:02Now?
00:12:03Less than a week away.
00:12:04All due respect for him, okay?
00:12:06You had you crack at the world title last week.
00:12:09I had to fill that spot, man.
00:12:11The Rumble's full, I'll have 30 spots.
00:12:14It's full.
00:12:15Full.
00:12:16Adam, you know.
00:12:17I know.
00:12:18And the people know.
00:12:19That no Royal Rumble is full without Finn Bauer.
00:12:24All I can do is apologize.
00:12:26The Rumble's full.
00:12:28This ain't over.
00:12:29Full.
00:12:30Full.
00:12:31I'm not stopping for now.
00:12:34What?
00:12:35Come on, Son.
00:12:35Can I get you back?
00:12:36Come?
00:12:37There's a leak!
00:12:38Hold on, we have a person here.
00:12:39You don't actually believe he was showing you respect last week, do you?
00:12:43He showed you...
00:12:44He showed you up in your own hometown and then raised your arm like some kind of participation
00:12:47trophy fin, and then you'd think...
00:12:49Thanks him for it.
00:12:50I heard Punk tell you to leave the judgment day.
00:12:55You don't believe he actually wants to become world champion, right?
00:12:57Because I promise you he doesn't, but you know who...
00:12:59Who does, Finn?
00:13:00The judgment day.
00:13:01Because the judgment day is your family.
00:13:03Live.
00:13:04This ain't as straightforward as it seems, okay?
00:13:09So let me figure this out.
00:13:14The master manipulator.
00:13:19Well, we are partying.
00:13:24Tonight in the Scotiabank Arena, home of the Toronto Raptors.
00:13:29And joining us, none other than a forward for the Raptors, Scotty Park.
00:13:34Is in the house.
00:13:35A pleasure, as always, having a good time.
00:13:39Here on Monday Night Raw.
00:13:42Raptors having a great season.
00:13:44This is on Monday Night Raw.
00:13:49Yeah, it is on Monday Night Raw.
00:14:50to believe it is on you.
00:14:55And being accompanied by Grayson Wallace.
00:15:00At a confined weight of 417 pounds,
00:15:04who may keep...
00:15:05Grayson and Xavier Woods, The New Day!
00:15:10Because I can't count on you to say anything that makes sense.
00:15:12Allow me, Michael Cole.
00:15:14Thank you!
00:15:16Gone!
00:15:16For The New Day!
00:15:17Well, they're upset they have to be in this fatal court.
00:15:20They thought they should just be handed a tag team title opportunity.
00:15:25The New Day are upset because they're still mourning the death of the tag team division.
00:15:30That's why they're mourning black.
00:15:32And how long is this mourning going to go on?
00:15:34But you can't...
00:15:34I mean, it's been...
00:15:35You can't put a timeline on grief, Michael Cole.
00:15:37That's extremely insensitive of you.
00:15:40And by the way, what's...
00:15:45Signals the start of a new day, Michael Cole.
00:15:48Riddle me that.
00:15:49Gone.
00:15:50Real smart.
00:15:52I was going to say mourning.
00:15:53Why couldn't you play along?
00:15:55He made me look good once.
00:15:57Grayson Waller mocking our guest at...
00:16:00On ringside tonight, one half of the tag team champion, Jey Uso.
00:16:05The Uso's will defend the titles against the winners of this matchup.
00:16:09Jimmy...
00:16:10Out here tonight, dealing with personal issues.
00:16:11And we are now underway with this fatal four...
00:16:15Out here tonight, two men will be in the ring.
00:16:18First team to get...
00:16:20Game, pinfall or submission will become the number one contenders for the tag titles.
00:16:24This is why it is up the...
00:16:25The utmost importance to keep a member of your own team in the ring as frequently as possible.
00:16:30Okay, Mr. Voice of Triple-A, who's starting things off here for Los Americana?
00:16:35It's going to be Bravo Americano, the powerhouse of the duo.
00:16:39Also...
00:16:40Capable with incredible feats of athleticism.
00:16:43Case in point.
00:16:45And look at the distraction by Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston.
00:16:49Take...
00:16:50Take it out.
00:16:51Bravo?
00:16:51Yes, Bravo.
00:16:53There's Jey Uso.
00:16:54It looks up.
00:16:55I mean, I can't understand any of these Americanos, guys.
00:16:58Who knows who they are?
00:17:00Well, if you fancy yourself a man of culture, Michael Cole, you would know Ryo and Brock...
00:17:05Bravo already megastars in Mexico.
00:17:07Any sort of association with El Grande Americana...
00:17:10Is it ticket straight to the top?
00:17:11I understand that Ryo and Bravo are already in discussions to create some...
00:17:15Fantastic new movies.
00:17:16Tozawa now, the legal man.
00:17:17Now, you can tag anyone you want into this matchup.
00:17:19Doesn't have to be your...
00:17:20Tag team partner, just like they did to Julius Creed there.
00:17:24And Creed now legal.
00:17:25Along with Tozawa.
00:17:26I think megastar may be a little heavy.
00:17:29Oh!
00:17:30Oh, man!
00:17:31What a clothesline by Julius Creed.
00:17:35Julius blasts the New Day off the apron.
00:17:37And who are you to deny the star power?
00:17:40Of Los Americanos south of the border, Cole.
00:17:42Wow, double suplex by the Creed...
00:17:45Brothers, American-made.
00:17:46Sports, sports, sports!
00:17:48These two kids so strong.
00:17:50Great tag team.
00:17:51Otis driven off the apron.
00:17:53Both massive amateur...
00:17:55Wrestlers back in the day.
00:17:56All-Americans.
00:17:57There he is.
00:17:58Brutus!
00:17:58This ball!
00:17:59Oh!
00:18:00Off the top rope, taking everybody out.
00:18:03They call it that because...
00:18:05The guy is strong as an ox, but sharp as a marble.
00:18:07Hey!
00:18:08Inside, Julius Creed.
00:18:09Thank you, guys.
00:18:10And Otis now driven into the step, shoulder first.
00:18:13Hey!
00:18:14Hey!
00:18:15American-made is taking control.
00:18:17We know who we are.
00:18:18Best damn tag team in the world.
00:18:20You're too tough, buddy!
00:18:21That's right!
00:18:21That's right!
00:18:22Come on!
00:18:24How you doing this time of the game?
00:18:25I do.
00:18:26I do.
00:18:27I do.
00:18:28I do.
00:18:28I do.
00:18:30I do.
00:18:30I do.
00:18:32I do.
00:18:33I do.
00:18:34I do.
00:18:36style. Never allow their opponents to catch their breath.
00:18:41I'm Xavier, and that's Kofi. Get it right from here on out.
00:18:46Catch that, Cole. Xavier Woods, right here in front of us.
00:18:51What was that all about? Your guess is as good as mine.
00:18:56Right of the body from Julius Creed.
00:19:00Tag made.
00:19:01Here comes Brutus.
00:19:03Metal Conference smiling!
00:19:05Let's not funny, Michael Cole!
00:19:06Cole, could you not antagonize the New Day?
00:19:09They're out here trying to become...
00:19:10I haven't done anything. I'm calling them out.
00:19:11They're delusional, too. Well, the fact they hang out with Waller.
00:19:16Waller is something as well, but...
00:19:21Creed Brothers, former NXT Tag Team Champions.
00:19:25Derudis is uncorked already.
00:19:26Right from way downtown at Rock Kozawa.
00:19:29I'm surprised the Creed Brothers haven't won the world title.
00:19:31Titles yet here. Tag team titles yet here in WWE.
00:19:34In my estimation, it's a matter of time.
00:19:36And I think it just needs a little bit more experience,
00:19:39a little more comfortability in the ring.
00:19:41Both Creed Brothers still relatively new to the game.
00:19:44Tag, and this is...
00:19:46It's Ryo.
00:19:47Ryo. Ryo.
00:19:50Oh!
00:19:51I don't understand what's so confusing, Michael Cole.
00:19:54One wears red, the other wears blue.
00:19:55And they're both Americana.
00:19:56Ryo in the red. R-R.
00:20:01I'm gonna write that...
00:20:01Bravo in the blue.
00:20:02I'm gonna write that down.
00:20:03Ryo, red, bravo, blue.
00:20:06Because the real Bravo, the real Grand is a river,
00:20:09and that means it's blue.
00:20:10I don't think that has anything to do with anything.
00:20:11We need to enjoy the tag team.
00:20:16Mastery of Los Americanos.
00:20:19Tag made.
00:20:20Bravo now legal.
00:20:21Double team coming,
00:20:24and Bravo with the right hand to the face of Dezawa.
00:20:26Dezawa now launches himself up over the top.
00:20:30Wow!
00:20:31Take a bow, Bravo.
00:20:33Looks familiar.
00:20:35It was an homage to...
00:20:36The great Eddie Guerrero.
00:20:38Very common maneuver used in Lucha Libre.
00:20:40Ah!
00:20:41Ah!
00:20:41I thought I'd see the day you and JBL were calling Lucha Libre.
00:20:46I thought it was wrestling, but nonetheless, tag!
00:20:50And...
00:20:51Here's Xavier Woods.
00:20:53Monday nights at 9 on WWE's YouTube.
00:20:56right now
00:20:59and speaking of
00:21:01JBL
00:21:02he coined this phrase
00:21:04the unicorn stomp
00:21:05many years ago
00:21:06I believe
00:21:06the unicorn stampede
00:21:08was the preferred
00:21:08nomenclature

00:30:41I can't hear it's all I'm going to waste it
00:30:46I can't hear it's all I can't hear it
00:30:51There's a real level of anxious anticipation for the Royal Rumble this Saturday
00:30:55And a large part of that is because of all the superstars who have already declared
00:30:59Like think about what happened already tonight
00:31:01We heard that Javon Evans is going to get bouncy
00:31:04In his very first Royal Rumble match
00:31:06We also learned that the entire
00:31:08Another faction of the Vision is going to join the fray
00:31:12And how about a few moments to go
00:31:13The Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch has declared
00:31:18For the
00:31:18You know what Stephanie?
00:31:19You want a piece of me?

00:31:33Stephanie
00:31:33Every leak you've been ducking me.
00:31:38You've been coming up with some kind of excuse to get out of a match with me, or if-
00:31:43If it's not you, someone else wants to stick their nose in my business, but I get it.
00:31:48You're scared, you're scared because not-
00:31:53Once in your entire career have you faced anyone as dominant as-
00:31:58Big, sexy, Raquel Rodriguez-
00:32:03Yes!
00:32:0410 months!
00:32:05Te voy a acabar.

00:32:38done urgently recording this conflict between Raquel Rodriguez, Stephanie Becker-
00:32:43and the Women's World Championship up.
00:32:46Real quick, speaking of championships, guys-
00:32:48do not forget, we're still counting down the minutes to that historical first-
00:32:53time ever main event, the World Heavyweight title on the line as-
00:32:58William Punk will defend against the phenomenal AJ Styles.
00:33:03I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
00:33:08You
00:33:13WWE world is back for WrestleMania
00:33:1842 from Thursday, April 16th to Monday, April 20th at the Las Vegas
00:33:23Convention Center, South Hall.
00:33:25Don't miss all new activations, the return of fan-favorite experience.
00:33:28And the largest WWE Superstore in WrestleMania history.
00:33:32Tickets are on.
00:33:33Sail now at WWEworld.com.
00:33:38Piers.
00:33:41Ay, Dios mÃo.
00:33:43Let me guess.
00:33:45Raquel won this.
00:33:47And I won Raquel.
00:33:48Pero, I don't wanna match.
00:33:50What do you mean?
00:33:51I wanna fight.
00:33:53A fight.
00:33:54Well, if you wanna fight, you came to the right spot.
00:33:56Next week.
00:33:58I won tonight raw.
00:33:59Stephanie, if I care you defend that Women's World Championship against Raquel Rodriguez.
00:34:03In a Philadelphia street fight.
00:34:05Perfect.
00:34:08Well, the Flyers can't seem to win.
00:34:13In a Stanley Cup.
00:34:14But they certainly know how to throw down in Philadelphia.
00:34:17What an ounce.
00:34:18I cannot wait.
00:34:19Yeah, that's Monday.
00:34:20But let's talk about what's gonna happen this weekend in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
00:34:23We head there tonight after Monday Night Raw.
00:34:25Let's take a look at the schedule.
00:34:26It all begins on Friday.
00:34:28Friday morning in the States, 9 a.m. Eastern, 6 a.m. in the morning on the West Coast.
00:34:33For the kickoff show on ESPN2.
00:34:36SmackDown, of course, takes place later on.
00:34:38That night.
00:34:39And then come Saturday, the countdown show kicks off the road.
00:34:43Coming to WrestleMania at 12 noon Eastern, 9 o'clock in the morning on the West Coast.
00:34:47Followed by the...
00:34:48Royal Rumble.
00:34:49Special start time of 2 Eastern, 11 on the West Coast.
00:34:53In the United States.
00:34:54And, of course, the post show.
00:34:55Immediately following the main event.
00:34:57What...
00:34:58Real night at the Royal Rumble.
00:35:00It is going down...
00:35:03And Riyadh, the phenomenal A.J. Styles, who may or may not be world heavyweight champion.
00:35:08Depending on the result of tonight, what is undeniable is that Styles has put his...
00:35:13His career on the line against the man who has become the career killer in WWE.
00:35:18The ring general, Gunther.
00:35:22Can Sami Zayn finally...
00:35:23Can we win his elusive first ever WWE Championship?
00:35:28He's got to go through the Scottish Warrior to do just that.
00:35:32McIntyre's...
00:35:33And one lucky lady is going to make her travel plan.
00:35:38It is the 30 woman over the top rope with...
00:35:43Women's Royal Rumble match.
00:35:46A star-studded field already announced.
00:35:48And who knows, will show up in Riyadh.
00:35:52Star-studded field is...
00:35:53Well, for the men's 30 man over the top rope Royal Rumble match.
00:35:57And remember...
00:35:58What awakes the winner of both the Rumble matches?
00:36:02An opportunity...
00:36:03To main event WrestleMania against the champion of their choosing.
00:36:08It's a new situation.
00:36:13So, what's the plan?
00:36:18Look, we all got into the rumble, right?
00:36:21So I think we should go in there.
00:36:23With one goal, one vision, a vision that can extend all.
00:36:28All the way up to WrestleMania.
00:36:30Because we have an advantage, boys.
00:36:32First off.
00:36:33No one can stop us.
00:36:35We are a unit, a well-oiled machine, a machine.
00:36:38Of machines.
00:36:40And I think, since we have an advantage...
00:36:43Let's take an opportunity to make sure that one of us...
00:36:48...leaves as the winner of the Royal Rumble.
00:36:53And I...
00:36:53I think that winner should be...
00:36:58...Bron Breaker.
00:37:01I agree with that.
00:37:03I agree.
00:37:05See, gentlemen.
00:37:07That.
00:37:08That is the vision.
00:37:13Make it buck, make it, make it buck, make it...
00:37:16Make it buck, make it, make it buck.
00:37:18You messed up, you can't see my face, yeah it's like that
00:37:22Haters tryna count me out
00:37:23Give it to the fighting
00:37:25Making love with yourself
00:37:27Making love with yourself
00:37:28By starting with tomorrow
00:37:28St
00:39:24ballers home turf of ireland and then tonight against a
00:39:29stiles you heard punk say it backstage earlier tonight he can only be the best in the world
00:39:34if he beats the best in the world he has been a fighting champion looks to continue
00:39:39to be a fighting champion but to those who have earned the opportunity to take
00:39:44a shot at the throne
00:39:49so
00:39:54I mean, it takes some guts if you're punk to come out here and willingly put the...
00:39:59world title on the line, this close to the start of the road to WrestleMania.
00:40:04Have you met CM Punk?
00:40:06Yeah.
00:40:07CM Punk's guts have...
00:40:09It defined him.
00:40:10Good, bad or indifferently for his entire career.
00:40:13This man...
00:40:14He follows his heart, he follows his gut, and CM Punk will go down swinging.
00:40:19Seven nights a week, 365 days a year.
00:40:23Interesting.
00:40:24History between Punk and AJ Styles, which we'll get into in just a moment.
00:40:29Just a few moments, but...
00:40:30I mean, there's so much that can happen...
00:40:34here tonight.
00:40:35I mean, you gotta believe Gunker is rooting for...
00:40:39AJ Styles to win the title.
00:40:42And Gunker could be licking his chops at the...
00:40:44the opportunity to not only end AJ Styles' career in Riyadh, but...
00:40:49win the World Heavyweight Championship in the process.

00:41:09WWE ring between CM Punk and AJ Styles.
00:41:13I promise you.
00:41:14Right now, Cole, there is a generation of wrestling fans, of wrestlers.
00:41:19Who came up on CM Punk and AJ Styles.
00:41:23You were one of them.
00:41:24I absolutely was.
00:41:26The roles that Punk and Styles have played in my career cannot be over.
00:41:29I have watched these two compete alongside one another.
00:41:34From everywhere, from high school gyms to armories, up and down the East Coast.
00:41:39To be doing it here on Monday Night Raw on Netflix truly is a full...
00:41:44Full circle moment, not only for Punk and Styles, but an entire generation of us who...
00:41:49Who are crazy enough to follow this dream.

00:43:36AJ Styles and CM Punk
00:43:39We're both in the same ring together 23 years ago in a tag team
00:43:44Match up in 2003 they go one-on-one later that year and over the years
00:43:49And independents across the country and the world they would meet a handful of times
00:43:54They really shaped each other's early careers they've never teamed together
00:43:59Before last week at a live event in brussels belgium and tonight for the
00:44:04First time ever in WWE they go one-on-one for the world
00:44:09The world heavyweight championship
00:44:12To call AJ
00:44:14AJ Styles or CM Punk influential quite simply is an understatement
00:44:19These are two trailblazers of an entire generation not only of fans
00:44:24But superstars those of us crazy enough to follow big dreams
00:44:29Up to the ring and the legendary Lillian Garcia

00:44:54short job, weighing in at 220 pounds, the phenomenon.
00:44:59A.J. Style!
00:45:04And his opponent.
00:45:09From Chicago, Illinois, weighing in at 218 pounds.
00:45:14He is the World Heavyweight Champion!
00:45:19C.M. Pong!
00:45:24I guarantee you the ring general.
00:45:29The career killer, Gunther, is watching this matchup.
00:45:34Because if A.J. Styles can pull off the victory, then you gotta...
00:45:39I believe that Gunther versus Styles at the Rumble Saturday is not only gonna be for...
00:45:44For A.J.'s career, it's gonna be for that, the world title.
00:45:48As if the stakes need...
00:45:49...needed to be any higher.
00:45:53And we are...
00:45:54These men going one-on-one in a WWE ring.
00:45:59For the first time in their careers, on what could be the final...
00:46:04...of A.J. Styles' career, on Monday Night Raw.
00:46:09Still surreal to say out loud.
00:46:11I met A.J. Styles when I was 18 years old, back in 2000...
00:46:14...in Georgia, at N.W.A. Wildside.
00:46:18We knew back then A.J. was...
00:46:19I don't think anyone knew exactly how special.
00:46:23Phenomenal, even.
00:46:24A.J. Styles' career would go on to be.
00:46:27Well, I didn't have the opportunity to get to know A.J. and meet him...
00:46:29...until 2016, when he came to WWE for the first time and made his debut in...
00:46:34...the Royal Rumble matchup.
00:46:36But I've become very close with A.J. over the past number of...
00:46:39...of years, an absolute gentleman, tremendous superstar in the ring, and what a way.
00:46:44If he could somehow pull off the world title win tonight.
00:46:48I met CM Punk around a similar...
00:46:49...time, 2002.
00:46:51These are two men who always wanted to change the game and have done...
00:46:54...exactly that in their own respective ways.
00:46:57CM Punk!
00:46:59Yeah!
00:46:59Styles and Punk were often told,
00:47:03you're not big enough, you don't fit.
00:47:04You can't be a superstar.
00:47:06And both men took those chips on their...
00:47:09shoulders and parlayed them into Hall of Fame careers.
00:47:13Both go on to use...
00:47:14Punk's moniker to become among the best in the world.
00:47:19Styles, a former two-time WWE Champion.
00:47:24CM Punk has won the world title seven times in his career.
00:47:29That is, just pick one trait to describe both superstars.
00:47:33It's tenacious.
00:47:34Both in their...
00:47:34in their own way.
00:47:35Styles with that Georgia...
00:47:36Uh-oh, uh-oh!
00:47:37Punk gonna...
00:47:38Looking for the goal to sleep.
00:47:39Styles, though...
00:47:40Uh-oh, uh-oh!
00:47:40Trying to roll through for the cap crusher.
00:47:44Oh, Punk was...
00:47:44with the Anaconda Vice.
00:47:46Going for their submissions early on in this matchup.
00:47:48Styles trying to fight out of it.
00:47:49Does pinning combination.
00:47:51Kick at two.
00:47:53What a classic.
00:47:54AJ Styles had with Shinsuke Nakamura this past Saturday on Saturday.
00:47:59night's main event.
00:48:00Corey, AJ said that in his final year here of 2026...
00:48:04He wants to be able to have last matchups with some of his all-time great...
00:48:09Rivals.
00:48:10I think AJ has more than earned that.
00:48:12But seeing the performance Styles put on...
00:48:14Saturday night's main event against Shinsuke Nakamura makes you wonder...
00:48:18AJ, why are you walking...
00:48:19By the way, there's still tread left on the tires.
00:48:21There's still gas left in the tank.
00:48:23You're still phenomenal.
00:48:24And I can tell you because AJ's told me this.
00:48:27He wants to get out at the top of his game.
00:48:29He doesn't...
00:48:29I don't want people to be telling their kids.
00:48:31I remember when AJ Styles was great.
00:48:34He wants to go out on top of his game as being great.
00:48:38That's how he wants people to remember...
00:48:39All scouted by CM Punk.
00:48:43Staying a step ahead of the...
00:48:44Phenomenal one.
00:48:45Oh, goodness.
00:48:47Oh!
00:48:48This looks...
00:48:49Familiar.
00:48:50And Punk now with a running knee.
00:48:52Oh.
00:48:54Oh.
00:48:54Again, into the cover.
00:48:55World title on the line.
00:48:58Think about...
00:48:59I mean, think about this.
00:49:02You know, I've nicknamed him the career killer.
00:49:04He ended...
00:49:04He ended Goldberg's career.
00:49:06He ended John Cena's career.
00:49:08And he has an opportunity.
00:49:09To end the career of AJ Styles this coming Saturday.
00:49:13What does that do?
00:49:14For the ring general.
00:49:16What continues to grow with the confidence.
00:49:19Of Gunther.
00:49:20The men's already achieved a list of accolades that would define a career...
00:49:24And potentially put you in the Hall of Fame.
00:49:27And Gunther still...
00:49:27Oh!
00:49:28Has a lot of work...
00:49:29Has a lot of work to do.
00:49:32That's the evolution of this business.
00:49:34No matter how good you are, there's always somebody nipping at your heels who wants your spot.
00:49:39Who wants...
00:49:39What's what you have?
00:49:40Who wants to be at the top of the mountain?
00:49:43Styles picture...
00:49:44Perfect dropkick sends the champion out of the ring.
00:49:49And AJ gonna launch himself...
00:49:54Out to the apron and now...
00:49:56Catches...
00:49:57Punk with that sliding knee.
00:49:59AJ Styles looking to win the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:50:04Come on!
00:50:09You
00:50:14And suddenly Styles has taken control
00:50:19on a night where he could be wrestling
00:50:22on Monday Night Raw for the very final
00:50:24time in his career
00:50:26Styles though extremely confident Corey
00:50:28he does not
00:50:29see his career ending on Saturday
00:50:31That's been AJ's secret weapon
00:50:33throughout the duration
00:50:34of his career to the point I was making earlier
00:50:36both himself and CM Punk were told
00:50:38you're not big
00:50:39enough to be a star in this business
00:50:41you'll never make it
00:50:42and both men said oh yeah
00:50:43watch me
00:50:44I'll shatter the mold
00:50:45I'll create my own molds
00:50:46and we are now looking at two of the best
00:50:48two
00:50:49ever step foot in a ring
00:50:51Well you know
00:50:52and Styles
00:50:53he knows
00:50:54he tapped out Gunther
00:50:56a couple of weeks ago
00:50:57Gunther of course
00:50:58pulled those shenanigans
00:50:59where the AJ believed off the tap out
00:51:03he had won
00:51:04and then the official was distracted
00:51:06and Gunther delivered a low blow
00:51:07but Styles knows
00:51:08he can tap out the ring
00:51:09in general
00:51:10and he knows that's a vulnerability
00:51:11when it comes to Gunther
00:51:12he's tapped out before
00:51:14for Jey Uso at WrestleMania
00:51:16exactly
00:51:17and that gives AJ Styles
00:51:18the confidence necessary
00:51:19to survive
00:51:20to prolong his career
00:51:21to get past
00:51:22the ring general
00:51:23Styles
00:51:24turn him first
00:51:25into the top buckle
00:51:26goes the champion

00:51:32AJ Styles
00:51:34understands what happened
00:51:35the last time he encountered
00:51:36Gunther was simply a case
00:51:37of Gunther being a step ahead
00:51:39and Styles will not let that happen again
00:51:42they'll fool him once
00:51:44snap merit
00:51:46takedown by AJ
00:51:47and there's the well-placed boot

00:51:59respect for what the other
00:52:00is capable of
00:52:01you don't want to make
00:52:02any mistakes
00:52:03because Punk knows
00:52:04if he makes one
00:52:04mistake
00:52:05Styles will capitalize

00:52:07if he screws up one time

00:52:29A.J. in control.
00:52:34There are 17,853.
00:52:39The WWE fans here tonight in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
00:52:44Sold out from Monday Night Raw.
00:52:46And our main event that we didn't know was going to happen until the start of the show.
00:52:49CM Punk, A.J. Styles for the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:52:53Just days before the Royal Rumble.
00:52:58Riyadh, what a treat.
00:53:00What a bold decision by the champion CM Punk.
00:53:03Offer up the opportunity to the phenomenal one.
00:53:06Oh, no!
00:53:10Oh, no!
00:53:10Oh, no!
00:53:11now the slugfest begins risky proposition
00:53:16for both men my god into the corner that may have driven all the wind
00:53:21out of AJ's lungs and maybe the opening the champion was waiting for
00:53:26AJ has been extremely focused in this match for the world title you got to
00:53:30wonder though
00:53:31still in the back of his mind as what's looming comes Saturday I disagree
00:53:35Cole
00:53:36I've known AJ long enough to believe that Styles can compartmentalize like no
00:53:41other
00:53:41AJ is focused on one thing right now
00:53:43that's CM Punk that's the potential to become world
00:53:46heavyweight champion the minute the bell rings AJ will shift his focus to
00:53:50Gunther
00:53:51but right now he's thinking about Punk
00:53:54Punk now
00:53:55caught him with a heel
00:53:56kick to the jaw
00:53:59Punk able to duck under
00:54:01there's the neckbreaker by the champion
00:54:04and now it's Punk starting to regain
00:54:06control
00:54:09see Punk fighting through the
00:54:11pain
00:54:12you can see the agony
00:54:13edge on the face of the champion
00:54:14but the knee connects
00:54:15and the bulldog
00:54:16vintage CM Punk
00:54:17vintage CM Punk
00:54:19and he
00:54:21W-
00:54:21Wants to put AJ Styles to sleep.
00:54:26Oh, Shining Wizard from the Champion!
00:54:32Interesting the way Punks change the strategy.
00:54:35Normally he goes for the go to...
00:54:37But instead decided to hit it with a Shining Wizard.
00:54:39We talked about the familiar...
00:54:41And above all the respect for one another's abilities.
00:54:44CM Punk realized, I'm gonna need a little insurance.
00:54:46It's not time to put AJ to sleep just yet.
00:54:49Shining Wizard connected, but...
00:54:51He didn't keep the phenomenal one down for three.
00:54:54And now Punk perhaps looking for the GTS.
00:54:56Styles on his shoulder.
00:54:57Styles will land on his feet.
00:54:58AJ with a white hand.
00:54:59And now AJ goes to work.
00:55:01Boom!
00:55:02What a clothesline.
00:55:04And now Styles...
00:55:05With a running...
00:55:06With a great forearm.
00:55:11AJ now trying to rally the fans.
00:55:16Here in Toronto.
00:55:19Into the corner.
00:55:20Styles now drags the champ.
00:55:21Toward the center of the ring.
00:55:24Punk out the back door.
00:55:25Ooh!
00:55:27Takes down Styles.
00:55:29To retain the title.
00:55:30And a kick.
00:55:31Take out my Styles at two.
00:55:36grueling physical matchup between these two.
00:55:41About what you would expect.
00:55:42No!
00:55:43No!
00:55:44No!
00:55:45No!
00:55:46A series of sharp right hands to the eyebrow of the challenger.
00:55:49A series of sharp right hands to the eyebrow of the challenger.
00:55:51No!

00:56:05Dials up on Punk's shoulders!
00:56:05Go to sleep position here!
00:56:06Hunk got caught.
00:56:09Styles now.
00:56:10Oh!
00:56:11Shiguroji from Styles.
00:56:13Cover for the World Heavyweight Championship and a kick out by...
00:56:16One by two.
00:56:21Let's take another look at the tied turn.
00:56:26In this matchup, Styles dropping Punk across his own knee, neck...
00:56:31He's first, and the World Heavyweight Champion is in jeopardy.
00:56:36WWE...
00:56:41WWE fans in Toronto trying to will on Styles.
00:56:46CM Punk as well, that has a chant of appreciation.
00:56:51For two of the best superstars to ever do it.
00:56:56The champ stunned.
00:57:00Styles got...
00:57:01He's going to climb the ropes.
00:57:06He's trying to hook Punk here.
00:57:09He's trying to hook Punk here.
00:57:12Punk blocks.
00:57:13Punk able to maintain a grip on the top row.
00:57:16Now Styles sent to the mat.
00:57:21And Punk's now in position with a flying elbow to Styles.
00:57:26Cover to retain the championship.
00:57:30And again, Styles...
00:57:31He's looking for the Anaconda Vice now.
00:57:33Punk blocking it in.
00:57:34AJ trying to fight it.
00:57:35AJ trying to fight it.
00:57:36He's taking it.
00:57:37He's dropping it off.
00:57:38It's cinched in.
00:57:39Anaconda Vice by Puck.
00:57:40Oh!
00:57:41Screaming for Stiles to tap.
00:57:47Our official Jessica Carr right there.
00:57:49Seeing if Stiles will tap out.
00:57:51Stiles trying to break this hold.
00:57:53It's an incredibly hard position to breathe in if you're aging.
00:57:56Stiles, Punk knows that, which is why he was clutching with everything he had.
00:57:59Look at Punk now.
00:58:01A.J. Stiles, tremendous core strength, fighting out of it.
00:58:06Uh-oh.
00:58:08Trying to put Punk in the position for the Stiles clash, and it didn't work.
00:58:11Out.
00:58:14Ring awareness from the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:58:16Shown there, CM Punk, nothing fancy.
00:58:19Just forcing Stiles back into the buckle.
00:58:21To break the grip.
00:58:24And now Punk wearing Stiles down.
00:58:26Two.
00:58:27Back it up out of there.
00:58:28Let's go.
00:58:29Chicago Blackhawks' spot.
00:58:31And Stiles looking to roll through now.
00:58:34Looking for a cap crusher, but Punk.
00:58:37Survives.
00:58:38Uh-oh.
00:58:39Caught.
00:58:39Oh, no.
00:58:40Stiles.
00:58:41Help.
00:58:41Has Punk in position, but Punk makes it to the ropes.
00:58:43Let's take it down.
00:58:44Let's go.
00:58:46Vicious knee to the kidneys of the champ.
00:58:51A Pian.
00:58:55Oh.
00:58:56What a forearm by Styles.
00:59:01A.J. out to the apron.
00:59:06The sliding knee.
00:59:09Styles got caught.
00:59:10Punk!
00:59:11Going to sleep outside the ring.
00:59:14A GTS by Punk.
00:59:16A.J. out.
00:59:19A.J. out.
00:59:19A.J. out.
00:59:20A.J. out.
00:59:21Punk can get back up.
00:59:22He may win this by count-out, but knowing CM Punk, that's not how he wants to.
00:59:26Do it.
00:59:27Not against A.J. Styles.
00:59:29The official now at.
00:59:31A count of three.
00:59:32Let's go, A.J.
00:59:33Four.
00:59:36Get him in the ring and play him.
00:59:37He's down.
00:59:38A.J.
00:59:38A.J.
00:59:39A.J.
00:59:39A.J.
00:59:40A.J.
00:59:40A.J.
00:59:41A.J.
00:59:41A.J.
00:59:41Got a six.
00:59:45Punk.
00:59:46Get into the ring.
00:59:48Styles at eight is in trouble.
00:59:51A count.
00:59:51One and nine.
00:59:52Styles just beats the count.
00:59:56And I think secretly deep in his home.
01:00:01Hart, CM Punk's happy that A.J.
01:00:03beat that count.
01:00:04CM Punk wants to beat the-
01:00:06Best in the world.
01:00:07He said it himself.
01:00:09You don't want any controversy.
01:00:10You don't want any caveat.
01:00:11Are stars by the match in the record book.
01:00:13You want to say you defeated one of the best of all time.
01:00:16With the world heavyweight title on the line.
01:00:18It is our main event on Monday Night Raw.
01:00:20Punk Styles for the-
01:00:21World Heavyweight Championship on what could be A.J.
01:00:24Styles' final night on-
01:00:26Monday Night Raw.
01:00:29And Styles still stunned.
01:00:31Unfortunately, that may have been A.J.'s last gasp.
01:00:34I mean, Punk can't even-
01:00:36Get Styles back to his feet off that go-to-sleep,
01:00:39which caught Styles flush.
01:00:41Can't even-
01:00:42Let't get kı, Punk!
01:01:06.
01:01:07.
01:01:08.
01:01:08.
01:01:10.
01:01:10.
01:01:11.
01:01:11.
01:01:11The Styles Clash, middle of the ring, stacks the champion's shoulders.
01:01:16But Punk, not done yet.
01:01:19Gotta wonder if Styles is playing.
01:01:21Possum to lure the champion in.
01:01:26This is for the World Heavy.
01:01:31A.J. Styles, the challenger on his feet.
01:01:36C.M. Punk, the champion.
01:01:41This is what separates A.J. Styles from the ring.
01:01:46The ability to find that next level, to tap into that next game.
01:01:52Styles is lining it up.
01:01:53This is the beginning, the end for Nakamura on Saturday.
01:01:56Looking for the phenomenal forearm.
01:01:58But C.M. Punk makes it to the road.
01:02:01Stopped, causing Styles to lose his balance.
01:02:03The mark of a resourceful champion.
01:02:06Borderline desperate, perhaps, but C.M. Punk knows what he has to do.
01:02:11To retain.
01:02:12It's not always the popular.
01:02:16It's not always the same thing.
01:02:17It's not always the same thing.
01:02:21It's not always the genuine.
01:02:22These two men.
01:02:23Give me time.
01:02:24These two men.
01:02:25Give me It
01:02:26Everything they have
01:02:31Oh
01:02:36Styles to the back of the knee
01:02:41And here comes Punk
01:02:44Styles
01:02:46As well
01:02:47Punk down to a knee
01:02:51Oh
01:02:52Kick right to the chest
01:02:54Punk
01:02:56With a chop
01:03:01Pele kick
01:03:04Bolt
01:03:06Man down
01:03:07Critical moment
01:03:08Of this world title match
01:03:11Who can dig down deep
01:03:15Who has a
01:03:16Little bit left
01:03:17We might have
01:03:21Our answer call
01:03:22AJ Styles
01:03:23Realizes this is his chance
