00:00:00Trick Williams and Rey Fenix set to go at it
00:00:07Last week Trick Williams interrupted Rey Fenix
00:00:10He was encouraging Sami Zayn backstage. We just heard from Sami Zayn
00:00:14Moments ago saying go out there Rey and teach this guy a lesson
00:00:18This match is presented by Sonic's new $6 all-american Smasher meal with three
00:00:23Eat Sonic
00:00:25Yeah, you're right Joe. So overtly at least Rey Fenix is out here defending the armor
00:00:30of Sami Zayn and Trick has not held back with his verbal barbs after Zayn's disappointment at the Royal Rumble against Drew McIntyre
00:00:38But let's not forget Trick Williams' debut here on SmackDown several weeks ago back to Germany was against
00:00:45Rey Fenix with Trick winning that match with a quick roll-up and a major handful of tights and I'll tell you right now
00:00:52As a competitor, you don't forget that there's a little extra fire in Rey Fenix tonight to put that one right
00:00:59And that was back on January 9th in Germany of course that was the night that Drew McIntyre
00:01:05Became the undisputed
00:01:07WWE Champion and then coming up later tonight as we keep adding chapters to an incredible story this year
00:01:13Cody Rhodes
00:01:15The men's elimination chamber
00:01:17Here's the cover Cody Rhodes
00:01:19Jacob Fatu and Sami Zayn the qualifying match to see who gets to the men's elimination
00:01:25Chamber that the triple threat main event right here in Dallas tonight
00:01:30And the Rhodes through means that Drew McIntyre and the WWE Championship with CM Punk and Roman Reigns on a collision course of course
00:01:38Oh man, Drew McIntyre and CM Punk need to hold on to those championships all the way to Wrestlemania
00:01:44I'm sure they'll be laser focused on doing exactly that
00:01:48Would you look at Rey Fenix
00:01:51As he bounces up to the top rope and then brings the missile dropkick this guy's athleticism is beyond way
00:01:58Yeah, it's ludicrous movement. I'll tell you right now trick Williams has it all as we've seen
00:02:03He's a great mover in his own right, but even he can't match the kind of movement of Rey Fenix
00:02:08He was desperately carving out a path to greatness for himself here on SmackDown
00:02:14Oh, man. Oh, man
00:02:17That trick kick can come out of nowhere
00:02:19That was so perfectly executed almost hooked around the jaw of Rey Fenix and it's that easy for an athlete the caliber
00:02:29Of trick Williams. I hope we see that one again. That was perfect. Oh, here it is
00:02:34My god, you'll never see one better executed than that
00:02:38You could have done that a hundred times in a training ring and it wouldn't have looked that good
00:02:42It's too easy for trick Williams
00:02:44And the size and the power of the explosiveness at 6'5 over 250 pounds the way he delivers
00:02:52And that's the key guys the size of trick Williams and he is a true heavyweight
00:02:57Shouldn't be able to move as well as he does. That's the cheat code with trick
00:03:00apart from all the other things like the charisma and the
00:03:04Talking chops and all that stuff and slams and right in the middle of the ring as he gathers himself after phoenix went on the attack
00:03:14Tricky two times
00:03:16He is such a presence
00:03:18Was he been on smackdown now for six weeks? He's got more nicknames than anybody in the history of professional wrestling already
00:03:25Mr. What that Hollywood trick trick willie
00:03:30Tall dark and handsome with a little pizzazz
00:03:32There's plenty more where that came from. He's got eight abs three chains three cars two feet

00:03:40The jumping neckbreaker to cap it
00:03:46Got his neck got his back what is coming next

00:08:31Heels overhead
00:08:33phoenix able to barely survive it
00:08:37The back breaker the neck breaker trick willie
00:08:46The last week trick williams
00:09:00Interrupted ray phoenix backstage with sammy zane
00:09:04ray thought he was disrespectful
00:09:06So he's got a big mouth and if he keeps talking he's going to kick his teeth out
00:09:11Well, it's been all trick williams so far. Yeah, it's been interesting
00:09:15Sammy zane and ray phoenix talking about trick like he is just some rookie which
00:09:20In time terms, he certainly is he hasn't been around this business particularly long
00:09:26However, the growth curve has been steeped two-time nxt champion one-time tna world champion
00:09:34His head down real number of someone as experienced as ray phoenix a 20-year vet
00:09:41Making it look damn good while he doesn't
00:09:43Feeling
00:09:49This is what y'all wanted right
00:09:51Hey, wait, this is what you wanted, right?
00:09:52I wanted it
00:09:57You can talk a little too much smack in this game especially against top competitors like ray phoenix
00:10:04That's exactly what was happening
00:10:06He was enjoying his work a little too much for a moment now back. Oh looking for a quick one right here cradle
00:10:12Tell you right now joe taking that out of trick williams this game would be a huge error for trick
00:10:17It's part of how he psychs himself up just mutters those mantras to himself talk smack to everyone in sight
00:10:26That's how he builds confidence before and apparently during matches
00:10:32Now pounding down with those right hands
00:10:42Man how long till trick williams gets his own talk show here on smack i feel like i'm listening to his own talk show right here on smackdown
00:10:52Well, we're going to be counting the weeks that's got to debut sooner sooner or later
00:11:04It's non-stop
00:11:05He's a motor man
00:11:08But if you're getting the job done in the ring, why not flex into the hook of the leg cover
00:11:15And these are the interesting times for a personality like a trick williams when things stop going your way when the frustration
00:11:22Starts to build can you hold it together or does the ego start to fray a little because if that happens ray phoenix will get his chance
00:11:29Get his chance
00:11:41Tell you right now talking all this smack and breathing at the same time deep into a match is a really really difficult ah
00:11:59The rising star trick williams has been in control against ray phoenix he's been screaming this is what you wanted right?
00:12:08This is what you wanted meanwhile phoenix is trying to rally back
00:12:15Chop after chop for phoenix
00:12:23Going up against the big 250 pounder it's going to take a little more than that
00:12:30I mean he nearly hit the ceiling here at american airline center
00:12:36Looking like he's charging up like bucket
00:12:39Oh god a backhander
00:12:41It's like a pimp slap job. Yeah, it's a trick slap as he likes to call it the trick slap
00:12:46And it connected right to the temple of poor ray phoenix knuckles first
00:12:51He's been yelling over to us to the entire crowd. I could do this all day long
00:12:56Oh great spinning kick from ray phoenix. That's where you call her a seat right to the jaw spinning back heel
00:13:02Drake willie all six foot five of him dropped
00:13:06And now perhaps phoenix gets that little opportunity to get some
00:13:11Blood back to the brain some oxygen in the lungs amount of comeback
00:13:16Never doubt the fight in a veteran like ray phoenix
00:13:20He's been on the other side of it for most of this match
00:13:24But he is looking to dig deep here in dallas
00:13:28A blistering first year in wwe for ray phoenix, but he's being put to a real test tonight
00:13:34He has trick willie
00:13:36He has found something the spinning animal kick you see that rhythm starting to take over for ray phoenix who looks fully refreshed
00:13:43Oh, he misses adios amigos didn't get all of it, but still into the cover
00:13:49Well trick willie smartly tried to duck out of the way
00:13:52But still catching just enough on the back of the head was ray phoenix. It doesn't take much
00:13:58You get the back of the head now trick williams is down. It's like a rabbit punch in boxing almost
00:14:02But with the boom even more devastating and now phoenix can pull this away
00:14:08How quickly things can turn?
00:14:11phoenix highest of cross bodies right back into it the speed of getting back up there joe
00:14:18How quickly did he get into that splash to win it right here?
00:14:23Late late kick out late kick out ray phoenix is within a whisker of putting this one away
00:14:30That is part of the reason why little eddie guerrero for you
00:14:38Have you ever seen anybody who has gone from that cross body instantly into the frog splash faster than ray phoenix?
00:14:46I mean that really is his special source in there that movement that ability to climb the turnbuggles faster than anyone
00:14:52Especially this deep in a match. How many times have you seen guys gingerly climbing? Not this guy though
00:15:01Off the top rope to the floor right down the throat at the lemon pepper stepper
00:15:07Trey williams who has no clue where he's at right now
00:15:11What an unbelievable shot we got of it too
00:15:14Ray phoenix flying through the air here in dallas
00:15:17Ray phoenix can barely stand up yet. He can bounce up to the top turnbuckle in the blink of an eye
00:15:25Just innate skills of ray phoenix, but now both men dragging both men struggling for oxygen
00:15:33Trick williams oh williams trying to get him up on his shoulders here williams up on the second rope with ray phoenix up on his shoulders
00:15:39This is where power is taking over, but this really is the realm the turnbuckles of the luchador himself ray phoenix
00:15:46Who has other ideas and it's all about balance now on top of the post ray phoenix
00:15:54Double stop
00:16:01Oh that fire stop nearly put it away god right to the traps the back of the neck the back of the head of tripp williams
00:16:08But twig williams showing major durability from a look at this straight down the throat dive
00:16:16On to trick williams followed up by this what a stunning impact that had
00:16:22On the shoulders of trick williams and once again already on the top rope oh
00:16:26He was going for the moonsault really his freakish ability here from ray phoenix
00:16:30Oh what a trick shot with all that momentum off the ropes
00:16:36He turned him inside out
00:16:38There is your winner
00:16:40There is your winner
00:16:51The big powerful trick shot just when ray phoenix was revving the engine created more damage watch this impact
00:17:00Boom right to the kisser and the whoop that era truly has landed
00:17:06I'll tell you right now trick williams pulling that out of the fire when it looked like he was toast
00:17:13Is perhaps even more impressive than a dominant victory you can beat trick williams
00:17:18But he still has ways to put you down nice job trick
00:17:22So impressive trick williams another win
00:17:41I know look I know I get it you'll get them back okay
00:17:44But right now you need to worry about your elimination chamber qualifying match
00:17:48Let me worry about mine
00:17:49I think
00:17:50Stop I think I'm going to be my life
00:17:52I'm going to be the last one

00:28:59What a lothario
00:29:00Eleven red roses
00:29:02Three eleven
00:29:02He doesn't even get a dozen
00:29:03Must have got a deal
00:29:06With nuggies
00:29:07Oh
00:29:08Heart-shaped chicken new jays
00:29:10They're not new jays
00:29:11And that is how they're going to interrupt the beginning of a women's championship match as cargill and grace
00:29:17Are straight to action here to decide and of course they have been heated in recent weeks
00:29:21You're seeing a test of power right away between two of the strongest women on the roster
00:29:28Right into that corner
00:29:31And there's charles robertson veteran referee separates them
00:29:35Raquel has got here a
00:29:37Championship match again i'm trying to focus i mean two powerhouses in the ring right now
00:29:43Neutralizing one another but i have to keep one eye on date night over here
00:29:47I cannot believe what's happening to our right right now
00:29:51Of course live morgan still has a major decision to make
00:29:55As to what she will do coming off the royal rumble with suplex by jade
00:29:59And here's the issue
00:30:01For both of these women really they're both of them their biggest advantage is that extreme levels of power and physicality
00:30:08Who has the advantage here that's the question?
00:30:12early pace is on fire between cargo and grace and now look at the power of jade cargill but a good counter transition by jordan grace
00:30:20And that's a veteran presence there from jordan grace knowing full well power was taken over from jade cargill
00:30:26Got to figure out something quick and glue the technical skills of jordan grace are on point right now and fading quickly here
00:30:35Is jade cargill and this is part oh, oh, man, but locked in still keeps it locked in
00:30:41Well, I just made it even worse because now the heel hooks are in and desperately trying to get to the right to get there
00:30:48And that is exactly what the champ does
00:30:51Jordan grace simply is not letting go here
00:30:57Look at the power of cargo and she is able to break it by slamming her back into the post championship match in front of us
00:31:04Meanwhile live morgue in the world
00:31:07Oh, no, that might be a broken arm right there for jade cargill
00:31:11Whacked hard against that steel ring post
00:31:14Of course as you mentioned getting a ringside seat here. Oh royal rumble winner who technically could challenge the winner of this match at wrestlemania
00:31:21Now off to the side there. She is live morgue has decision to make
00:31:28Off the bar now steps dropping down with all her weight
00:31:31Is jordan grace the challenger for this wwe women's championship?
00:31:36creative evader bomb right there and jay cargill has not looked the same since that forearm connected with a steel ring post and
00:31:44Smelling blood now is jordan grace the juggernaut going into overdrive here. There is the goal
00:31:50Onto the barrier of timekeeper
00:31:53The impact to the lower back, but you can see jade cargill still greatly affected with that left arm that slammed in
00:32:01Now face to face with live morgue and a nugget for the chin
00:32:21Look alike joe those new jays smell really good. I'm tempted to grab one. They're not french at all
00:32:27Just chicken nuggets
00:32:30As jade cargill took a bite spit it out and now slams the head of jordan grace right into the apron then her shoulder
00:32:36Right into the steel steps, but I will tell you there was
00:32:40Damage done to that left hand and left arm of jade cargill
00:32:45She's trying her best to shrug it off both women have taken severe damage in the early goings of this one as is
00:32:50Inevitable with two women competing with these levels of strength and I think it was the lower back
00:32:57Really of jordan grace that took the beating
00:33:00And it has suddenly become the jade cargill show
00:33:23Despite that left arm giving her trouble and still there with a dig jordan grace trying to cling on to a chance in this one
00:33:31severely hampered with that lumbar spine damage
00:33:33Doesn't cargill know every attack now going to the the back of the spine
00:33:43of jordan grace
00:33:46And grace's chances in this one slowly ebbing away
00:33:52That's how quickly things can change at this level
00:33:54And this is just cargill expertly slowing the pace down now that she has a foothold in the match
00:34:10JBL s full away slam low kip up for good measure you're still shaking out that left hand
00:34:20Slammed into that metal post earlier. She's been on the attack managing
00:34:26Without full use of it comes crashing into that corner against jordan grace well grace tried her best to get out of the way
00:34:32But the huge frame of jay cargill just blocking that escape attempt
00:34:36The block that time around power versus power oh and more damage to that left hand and left arm
00:34:44Well, that is how you get yourself a second elbow on that arm
00:34:48You'll be very very ugly for the champ here and suddenly this one might have turned around
00:34:53He's bearing his shoulder
00:34:57Right against it he's cranking that arm time and again
00:35:01She has found the target
00:35:03And it is that left arm of jade cargo who still fights on looking to retain
00:35:08And i'll tell you right now both women in this match have done a pretty darn good job of staying locked in and focused on the championship match
00:35:15Despite the kind of romantic shenanigans at ringside
00:35:24This championship is on the line jade cargo looking to defend against jordan grace
00:35:29Meanwhile, the royal rumble winner liv morgan with a massive decision to be made is celebrating valentine's day weekend
00:35:37With dirty dom
00:35:39What is that?
00:35:40It's a bottle of gum
00:35:41That is not a bottle
00:35:42Dom
00:35:43Dom tastes great
00:35:44Let me tell you
00:35:46Joe test
00:35:46No, no, no, no
00:35:49That is improper grape varietal and not from geographical origin
00:35:52As we're here in dallas
00:35:54And we continue on that left arm of jade cargo is a major concern it has been damaged throughout this match
00:36:04And see her trying to fight back with just the one good arm and
00:36:08jordan grace
00:36:09Doing everything she can to find that target well both women severely weakened that lower back of jordan grace taking a real beating earlier on
00:36:18But she's still moving well enough to win this one are now managing to fight from underneath
00:36:24And the champ is struggling here
00:36:27What a huge opportunity for jordan grace
00:36:30New to the roster on smackdown but with all her experience her power and her strength
00:36:34What are you doing over here?
00:36:36That is not for you jordan grace with an opportunity to take gold
00:36:40What are you you're eating the chocolates from live?
00:36:43I was specifically told not to give one to you by the way. I'm still doing the matching college right and honestly incorrigible
00:36:50I feel like i'm part of the date now
00:36:52I'm not part of the date, please
00:36:54wwe women's championship match in front of us meanwhile
00:36:57Liv morgan and dirty dom celebrating valentine's day. She has a huge decision to make
00:37:02Concerning her opponent for wrestlemania. Could it be jade cargo?
00:37:06Will it be stephanie vacare?
00:37:08Oh big kick
00:37:10Will it be jordan grace the way this is going it could go either way joe it could indeed
00:37:17Oh look at grace and it could happen right here unique looking spine buster that it's a major damage
00:37:24But now completely softened up that is a huge frame to be lifting landing on her feet wow j
00:37:29And jade delivers a spine buster of her own
00:37:33But she cannot hold on to gold for that moment back and forth they go
00:37:40A serious fiery challenger in jordan grace a determined jade cargo in front of a massive crowd here in dallas
00:37:48Yeah, and the confidence of jade cargo which can be just described as heavenly at times
00:37:55Feels like it's fading rather rapidly here because this challenger jordan grace is putting up
00:38:01So much resistance here on once again ducking out of trouble. Oh, she could get it right here could have a new champ
00:38:06And again
00:38:11shoulders down and somehow jade finds a way
00:38:15Remember that left arm is damaged and with it grace powers are up
00:38:21How about that strength from the challenger the driver?
00:38:26Could we have a new champ now?
00:38:30Oh, davy boy smith style power slam from jordan grace almost gets the job done
00:38:37And you see the frustration in the eyes of the challenger who thought that was the ticket to the goal
00:38:43And these are questions that have never been asked of jay cargill thus far in her career
00:38:51She is getting manhandled and outpowered. She's getting beaten at her own game by jordan grace. Oh, I love this
00:38:58Head to head who wants it more?
00:39:01Who's got something left in them?
00:39:04These critical moments in the deep water of a match a championship match
00:39:09Center of the ring throwing right hand after right hand oh and then spinning back elbow
00:39:16Oh here we go joe we've seen this before puts her in position
00:39:23On her feet there it is with the big pump kick grace went for beast mode
00:39:32Single arm jaded she did it
00:39:39Here is your winner and still wwe women's champion jade cargill
00:39:50Well, it became a case of who can drop the heavy artillery first the answer was jade cargill after beast mode was attempted
00:39:59Resisted cargill with one arm thanks to that damage executed earlier against the ring post
00:40:06Pulling up jaded in what has to have been the most difficult match of cargill's career while she's passed once again and still
00:40:16wwe women's champ
00:40:19Although maybe coming back for some more chicken new jersey
00:40:28If you challenge me i recommend you
00:40:30And flip seemingly unaffected as the valentine's weekend date moves on and jade pulls gold

00:52:01batu well can there be a worse feeling than knowing your pathway to the elimination chamber
00:52:12and then wrestlemania has to run through this man batu who ambushed drew mcintyre a week ago and now has
00:52:23to take the formal and far more difficult path to potentially get back to drew mcintyre
00:52:29this main event to get to elimination chamber to earn a world championship opportunity at
00:52:38wrestlemania 42. two weeks to elimination chamber nine weeks to wrestlemania 42. man things are heating
00:52:46up this time of the year
00:52:54so
00:53:00so
00:53:02so
00:53:04so
00:53:06I swear to God, I swear to God, I swear to God, I swear to God.
00:53:36And their opponent, from Atlanta, Georgia, weighing in at 222 pounds, the American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes!
00:53:56We have seen an altered version of Cody Rhodes, a fuming Cody Rhodes.
00:54:05We heard him tell the WWE Universe, for the first time in my career, I can't in good conscience point at that WrestleMania sign that bothers him.
00:54:15Tonight, Wade is about taking a major step closer to salting that, but he's running out of time and opportunities.
00:54:23Have to have this one.
00:54:24Yeah, another man with major issues with Drew McIntyre.
00:54:27McIntyre, of course, defeating Cody for the WWE Championship and eliminating from the Royal Rumble.
00:54:33And once again, a massive spike in energy once QB1 enters the arena.
00:54:44But can you really be QB1 without the WWE Championship?
00:54:49But Cody, I'm not so sure.
00:54:51He sees it as his destiny to get back there on this one pathway left for Rhodes.
00:54:58Win tonight.
00:54:59Win Elimination Chamber.
00:55:01Head to WrestleMania.
00:55:08Randy Orton is in.
00:55:10LA Knight is in.
00:55:12And now, who will be the next name added?
00:55:17Will it be Cody?
00:55:19Will it be Jacob?
00:55:20Or will it be Sami Zayn?
00:55:23Here we go.
00:55:24Triple threat rules.
00:55:25First to score a pin four submission on any opponent wins.
00:55:28Who will get one of the spots in Elimination Chamber?
00:55:34There's still major issues between Cody and Fatou.
00:55:36Cody blames Fatou for costing him in that three stages of hell match with Drew McIntyre.
00:55:44And, of course, they had that epic brawl at Saturday night's main event.
00:55:47I don't think anything got resolved between those two that night.
00:55:50Although they may have gained a modicum of respect for one another.
00:55:55Of course, they have the underdog Sami Zayn,
00:55:57who naively got suckered there by Jacob Fatou.
00:56:01Welcome to the whirlwind that is the Samoan whirlwind.
00:56:05And Cody invites it.
00:56:07Cody says, let's go right here.
00:56:09And they go.
00:56:10Well, it's like Montreal all over again for these two.
00:56:13Flashback to Saturday night's main event.
00:56:16Let's carry on where we left off.
00:56:18That was back on January 24th
00:56:20when Jacob and Cody had a scheduled match in Montreal
00:56:23and Saturday night's main event.
00:56:25But they brawled throughout the arena
00:56:28before the match ever officially started.
00:56:30Drew McIntyre eventually attacked both men.
00:56:34Look at the pace and the violence they're setting early here.
00:56:37Oh, my God.
00:56:37What a reversal of that Cody cutter there from Jacob Fatou.
00:56:41Knew it was coming in,
00:56:42had the physical ability to get past it.
00:56:45But Cody equal to it.
00:56:47Missing the senton.
00:56:47And now Cody, he revs the engine and sends Fatou out to the floor.
00:56:55Just as Sammy steadies himself and enters the ring again.
00:57:00Gonna make the most of this.
00:57:01I promise you the Samoan werewolf will not stay down for long.
00:57:04Chops echoing throughout this arena here in Dallas.
00:57:16And now Sammy sends Cody out as well.
00:57:24Sammy high fly in.
00:57:27Takes out Jacob and Cody.
00:57:30Men's Elimination Chamber qualifying match.
00:57:33Oh, Sammy, help!
00:57:43I'll tell you something to keep an eye on
00:57:45after that hot flurry there from Sammy Zayn.
00:57:48That landing on the dive is the same dive
00:57:51that cost him at the Royal Rumble.
00:57:52The lower back of Sammy Zayn
00:57:55against Drew McIntyre flared up badly.
00:57:57And Sammy wasn't the same again in Riyadh.
00:58:00Now, I noticed he was gingerly caressing that lower back.
00:58:04Perhaps he's got away with it this time,
00:58:06but something to keep an eye on.
00:58:08What a great point of analysis
00:58:10as we saw him reaching for that back.
00:58:12And then we reach back to our recent memory
00:58:14of what happened at the end of January in Riyadh
00:58:17when Sammy lost to Drew McIntyre.
00:58:22I'll tell you, Joe,
00:58:23there's no hitting the brakes in a match like this
00:58:25when the stakes are so high.
00:58:26It's WrestleMania season.
00:58:28You've got one chance to get back on path
00:58:31to a main event championship spot at WrestleMania.
00:58:35You have to go for broke.
00:58:36Oh, Sammy wants to get there right now
00:58:38when unable to.
00:58:39You know, we hear about it in other sports.
00:58:41There's the way there's a tone set
00:58:43and a pace set to regular season games.
00:58:46And then things really ratchet up in the playoffs
00:58:49and you see a level of intensity
00:58:51that just lets you know
00:58:53that a championship is around the corner.
00:58:55That is what this feels like tonight on SmackDown.
00:58:58That is what it feels like
00:59:00when you watch these qualifying matches
00:59:02for Elimination Chamber.
00:59:04Yeah, I'll tell you right now, Joe,
00:59:05I don't care if you're a rookie in this game
00:59:07or a vet who's been to the top multiple times.
00:59:10Everyone in that locker room
00:59:11feeling massive amount of nerves
00:59:13because it's WrestleMania season.
00:59:16Everything is heightened.
00:59:17The difference is
00:59:18some people are affected negatively by those nerves.
00:59:22People like Cody have proven in the past
00:59:24those nerves, they bring out the very best in it.
00:59:26Well, just when Cody
00:59:28hits that delayed vertical suplex,
00:59:30Jacob Fatu is right there to meet him.
00:59:33And that is what happens in a triple threat match.
00:59:36You may have momentum in one direction,
00:59:38but you've got to watch your back in the other direction.
00:59:40And now this is a fully refreshed
00:59:44Jacob Fatu against two half-beaten opponents.
00:59:48And you would not want to be Cody Rhodes
00:59:50or indeed Sami Zayn at this point.
00:59:52Although, up until now,
00:59:54Fatu has eyes only for Cody.
00:59:56That's just changed.
00:59:57I mean, and you've questioned
01:00:06with someone like Jacob Fatu,
01:00:09what was the tactic coming into this match?
01:00:11What's the strategy?
01:00:13Or is it simply close your eyes,
01:00:15keep swinging
01:00:15and do what only you can do?
01:00:21Massive uppercut from Fatu.
01:00:24That is just a blur of violence.
01:00:26So devastating, so effective.
01:00:29And slowly getting closer
01:00:31to the elimination chamber.
01:00:34Just the force by which he put Sami into that corner.
01:00:39Back on January 9th in Germany,
01:00:55Jacob Fatu is mostly responsible
01:00:58for causing the American Nightmare Cody Rhodes
01:01:01the loss
01:01:02when Drew McIntyre became the undisputed WWE champion
01:01:07as he interfered in that three stages of hell match.
01:01:10Now, here they are in a triple threat
01:01:12with Sami Zayn
01:01:13as Snap Scoop Power Slam
01:01:15to see who can make it
01:01:16to the men's elimination chamber.
01:01:18Cody has been trying to chase down Drew McIntyre.
01:01:21He has been a man possessed.
01:01:24And you see it in his face
01:01:25and those eyes right there.
01:01:27Yeah, Cody now hitting that main event gear.
01:01:30It's WrestleMania season.
01:01:31The cogs are whirring in the mind of Cody Rhodes.
01:01:33Don't want to miss out.
01:01:35Looking to deliver the elbow,
01:01:37but instead Sami Zayn was trying for Blue Thunder.
01:01:40Back and forth they go.
01:01:42Hot pace set here.
01:01:44Disaster kick to the jaw.
01:01:45And then the cover.
01:01:49I don't think you've got a two count on that one.
01:01:51That is how highly strong Sami Zayn is
01:01:54refusing to go down
01:01:56after recent bitter disappointments.
01:02:01Taking everything he has.
01:02:07I mean, I'll be honest with you, Joe.
01:02:08A WrestleMania card
01:02:10without any of these three in this match
01:02:12is unthinkable,
01:02:13but it is a distinct possibility
01:02:15for two of them
01:02:16pending the outcome of this match.
01:02:18Sami Able get out of that crossroads attempt.
01:02:20Perhaps looking for the exploder here.
01:02:22Fatou just smashes both of them.
01:02:24Yeah, two birds with one stone for Fatou.
01:02:26That's part of the problem in Triple Threats.
01:02:28You have to drop your guard,
01:02:29focus on one opponent
01:02:30at some point in the match.
01:02:32Second you do that,
01:02:34a Samoan blur is heading your way.
01:02:38And now the scene of devastation unfolds.
01:02:46Able to use the ropes
01:02:48and the running moonsault
01:02:50and now trying to advance to Chicago
01:02:52and Sami survives with two and change.
01:02:56And now Cody looking to rev the engine.
01:03:00In position for the Samoan drop,
01:03:02but instead, Cody!
01:03:04Could he land?
01:03:07Good reversal by Fatou.
01:03:09Oh, looking for a quick one to Sami.
01:03:15Cody jackknights.
01:03:16Fatou sat on!
01:03:18Well, once again, Cody and Sami got
01:03:22almost obsessed with beating one another
01:03:24in that chess game there.
01:03:25Counter for counter.
01:03:28Apparently, Jacob Fatou don't play that way.
01:03:32Jacob Fatou, who attacked Drew McIntyre last week.
01:03:34Cody Rhodes, who attacked Drew McIntyre last week.
01:03:37And now both of them looking to have a chance to attack
01:03:41all the way to WrestleMania.
01:03:43He's going to take this victory here, though,
01:03:45to put themselves in position for Elimination Chamber.
01:03:48Remember, winner at Elimination Chamber in two weeks
01:03:50gets a world championship match at WrestleMania.
01:03:53Folks, we're only nine weeks away from WrestleMania 42 in Vegas.
01:03:57McIntyre not afraid of making some enemies.
01:04:00Apparently, he's certainly got plenty of those.
01:04:01It's a bizarre olive branch extended to Sami Zayn prior to this match.
01:04:05Still trying to figure that one out.
01:04:08Drew McIntyre, as Kathy Kelly was interviewing him earlier tonight,
01:04:11said a big pardon.
01:04:12He said it right to Sami Zayn.
01:04:14Wants to see you win.
01:04:16That was right from the undisputed champ.
01:04:19Cody's in that compromise position in the corner.
01:04:33Fatou just patiently comes over to stalk his prey.
01:04:37Fatou has fought for choice at this point in the match.
01:04:40And that could be an issue in and of itself.
01:04:42Get rid of one of these two.
01:04:44Focus all your efforts on the other.
01:04:46Yeah!
01:04:47Go!
01:04:48Oh, pop-up Samoan!
01:05:01Oh, and Cody makes the save!
01:05:18Look at this scene here.
01:05:21All three men were down moments ago in Dallas.
01:05:26Jacob Fatou was on the brink of winning this men's elimination chamber qualifying match.
01:05:32Yeah, and I don't think getting in a slugfest with Jacob Fatou is necessarily the smart idea.
01:05:38I don't think that's Cody thinking.
01:05:40I think it's Cody just reacting and trying to survive.
01:05:43Oh, man!
01:05:45Jacob Fatou's suicide dive to the outside.
01:05:48Well, Cody just did an absolutely incredible, instinctive job of avoiding his lower back,
01:05:53connecting with our table there after riding out that dive from Jacob Fatou.
01:05:58That's the level Cody operates at.
01:06:00Body does things without the brain even telling it to.
01:06:04And once again in survival mode now.
01:06:06But Sami Zayn taking control.
01:06:08Or trying to at least.
01:06:10Easier said than done.
01:06:12Right into the steel steps.
01:06:32Ask and ye shall receive, apparently.
01:06:36No, Kraus not going to like them pushing that table back in there.
01:06:39Change of his mind is Jacob Fatou, but Cody heard you.
01:06:46Oh, but Fatou comes running in and dismisses that effort.
01:06:50Throws that table back under the ring.
01:06:53Jacob Fatou does not need tables to do damage.
01:06:56He's got his fists.
01:06:57He's got his feet.
01:06:58He's got his teeth.
01:06:59He's got his head.
01:07:00Elbows, knees.
01:07:01And he's got gravity.
01:07:12And this could be the kill shot he's been waiting for to book his ticket for the elimination chamber.
01:07:19Cody, other ideas?
01:07:20Yeah, one of those mighty moonsaults and Fatou will likely be on his way.
01:07:25Let's go.
01:07:25Let's go.
01:07:25Let's go.
01:07:26Let's go.
01:07:27Let's go.
01:07:27Let's go.
01:07:28Let's go.
01:07:28Let's go.
01:07:29Let's go.
01:07:30Let's go.
01:07:31Cody trying to put him in position.
01:07:37Cody just trying to control Jacob Fatou.
01:07:40Now it's Sami's turn.
01:07:41Here, you have a go.
01:07:42Tag in.
01:07:43Help me out here.
01:07:45Trying to control the most unhinged, terrifying force we have ever seen here on SmackDown in the form of Jacob Fatou.
01:07:54And this just does not look promising for Sami Zayn at all.
01:08:02A little over eager to show off some power skills against the massive frame of Jacob Fatou.
01:08:08Shaking off the cobwebs.
01:08:10Unmatched intensity that we are witnessing here in Dallas in front of a massive crowd for Friday Night SmackDown.
01:08:35As Sami and Cody are going up top to handle Jacob Fatou.
01:08:42Winner heads to Elimination Chamber.
01:08:44A pathway to WrestleMania and look at the ring shape.
01:08:51Well, a brief alliance between Cody and Sami who clearly realized the only way we can stop the Simone Werewolf is by teaming up briefly as it may be.
01:09:02But it's certainly had that effect.
01:09:05But only one man can advance.
01:09:08Only one man in two weeks out of this group will be in Chicago.
01:09:13Remember, Elimination Chamber, the winner gets a world championship match at WrestleMania.
01:09:19For Cody Rhodes, he is desperate for that opportunity.
01:09:24Drew McIntyre, who defeated him to become the undisputed champion.
01:09:28He denied him that opportunity at Royal Rumble.
01:09:31Well, that's the right word at this point in a match.
01:09:33Desperate.
01:09:34All three competitors are desperate.
01:09:36No more so than a demoralized Sami Zayn who lost the big shot at the Royal Rumble.
01:09:42Wants to get back on top in a hurry.
01:09:44Wash the taste away.
01:09:48Sami Zayn who regained confidence.
01:09:52He was moping around after that loss to McIntyre in Riyadh.
01:09:55But he understands what's on the line right here.
01:10:00Back and forth they go.
01:10:01They're fighting tooth and nail while Jacob Fatou is down.
01:10:04This is what you've got to do.
01:10:06Drop the hammer now while you've got the chance.
01:10:08Because hell, he's waiting on the outside.
01:10:10Oh, Sami locks him up.
01:10:14Exploder.
01:10:17Sami Zayn has a chance here, Wade.
01:10:21And Cody has no clue where he's at.
01:10:24Cody ain't gonna be ducking this one.
01:10:26Here's your chance, Sami.
01:10:28He could be.
01:10:28Put your ticket to the chamber.
01:10:29A hallouba kicker.
01:10:31Whoa!
01:10:32Super kick, Fatou.
01:10:34And one for Cody, too.
01:10:36It was coming sooner or later, wasn't it?
01:10:39It's like starting a stopwatch when Jacob Fatou goes down.
01:10:43Eventually, you're gonna run out of time.
01:10:47Sami comes in to clear out Fatou.
01:10:50The modified hallouba kick to the back of the head of Jacob Fatou.
01:10:54And it may have put Fatou down for good.
01:10:56Cody can finish this.
01:10:58Nearly a crossroads.
01:10:59What a counter by Sami Zayn.
01:11:04Swing and a miss.
01:11:05Great intensity here in Dallas.
01:11:07Clearly, Sami got that blue thunder bomb, but blocked by Cody Rhodes,
01:11:12who got lead in his boots at the exact right moment there.
01:11:16He was trying to hit that blue thunder earlier as well.
01:11:19These three competitors know each other so well.
01:11:22Goes for the Cody Couser.
01:11:23There it is.
01:11:24Blue thunder.
01:11:25Could it be Sami?
01:11:29Left shoulder just gets up and to a change.
01:11:32Oh, Cody went for Brode there.
01:11:34Over committed to that Cody Couser.
01:11:36Too much left in the tank of Zayn.
01:11:38Zayn with a flurry.
01:11:39The blue thunder bomb.
01:11:41We've seen it get it done time and time again.
01:11:43Not tonight.
01:11:44Not at this level.
01:11:45Not with so much at stake.
01:11:47Saturday, February 28th will be Elimination Chamber.
01:11:55You see the Wrestlemania sign high above.
01:11:58That is the opportunity.
01:12:00What happens in Chicago at Elimination Chamber is the chance to get a world championship match in Vegas in nine weeks.
01:12:08Sami Zayn's main event at Wrestlemania before wants to get back there again.
01:12:13This time in singles.
01:12:14This time for a world championship.
01:12:17One that's eluded him his entire career.
01:12:20It all goes through the Elimination Chamber.
01:12:23You gotta book your ticket there first.
01:12:25Neither man has much left in them.
01:12:28As Sami points to that sign.
01:12:30Who shattered human beings.
01:12:35Fighting on instinct.
01:12:37Fighting on fumes.
01:12:38Fighting for the right to get to the Elimination Chamber.
01:12:41What a night here in Dallas.
01:12:44Dallas where Cody Rhodes returned to WWE at Wrestlemania 38.
01:12:48And now Dallas where he attempts to try to put himself in position to get to Wrestlemania 42.
01:12:55It's all about keeping the dream alive for this year's Wrestlemania season.
01:13:00But somebody might be about to get their dreams shattered.
01:13:05Batu!
01:13:08Batu from behind.
01:13:10And now Jacob Batu looks like he's the guy who can capture momentum.
01:13:18Batu who was out injured.
01:13:20Somebody attacked him.
01:13:21Somebody knocked his teeth down his throat.
01:13:23And he has come back with vengeance.
01:13:27Well you heard him Joe.
01:13:28He's all gassed.
01:13:29No breaks with it.
01:13:31And somebody.
01:13:32Namely Sami Zayn.
01:13:34Might be about to get dog warm.
01:13:40All that force.
01:13:41Get his ass with him.
01:13:43Live and direct.
01:13:44On Sami's punk ass.
01:13:46The hell?
01:13:52Volcano of intensity.
01:13:53Oh he just missed on the Havuva.
01:13:55Sami went for it.
01:13:56I'll tell you right now.
01:13:57I'll tell you right now.
01:13:57The instincts of Batu there were incredible.
01:13:59Didn't even see it coming.
01:14:01Side shimmied out of the way.
01:14:03Oh wow.
01:14:03Look at this.
01:14:04Look at Sami.
01:14:05Oh.
01:14:062.9.
01:14:09Just milliseconds away for Sami Zayn.
01:14:12Craftily pouncing.
01:14:15Just when it looked like Batu was putting this one away.
01:14:19There's the dive.
01:14:20Sami Zayn catches him in that small package.
01:14:23But Batu was just enough to kick out.
01:14:25Despite being caught by surprise there.
01:14:27There is something with these three men tonight.
01:14:32A desire that burns so strongly within them.
01:14:36To reclaim glory.
01:14:38Cody now.
01:14:39Cutter.
01:14:40Cody Cutter.
01:14:43Oh god.
01:14:44What's Batu doing?
01:14:45He's winning the ring.
01:14:46He's gonna steal it.
01:14:48Batu's gonna steal it.
01:14:48Batu's gonna steal it.
01:14:49Mighty moonsault.
01:14:51Batu's gonna do it.
01:14:52Right here.
01:14:54For elimination chamber.
01:14:56Oh.
01:14:58A claymore from Drew McIntyre.
01:15:06While Jacob Batu had this one.
01:15:11And McIntyre made it clear he has no interest.
01:15:15On defending his championship against Jacob Batu.
01:15:22Oh my.
01:15:26Jacob Batu just got thrown.
01:15:33Cody high flying.
01:15:36Drew McIntyre just sent Batu slamming hard over our announced desk.
01:15:43And now Cody's on the attack.
01:15:45You're happy of everything so terrified of their entire life.
01:15:48But Drew McIntyre has absolutely wrecked this triple threat match.
01:15:52And he's not done yet, Joe.
01:15:54Oh, this Scottish psychopath is gonna power blow.
01:15:58He just exploded.
01:16:03The reinforced announced desk.
01:16:07Jacob Batu is done.
01:16:09And still McIntyre continues.
01:16:11Oh, Claymore.
01:16:13Cody's out.
01:16:14Cody's been Claymore.
01:16:17Drew is gonna drag Sammy's body onto him for the win.
01:16:23The reference there.
01:16:29Oh, Cody survives.
01:16:33Right shoulder up.
01:16:35This is outrageous.
01:16:38Well, McIntyre stuck the deck.
01:16:40It's failed.
01:16:41But he might get another chance.
01:16:43And it's right Batu off.
01:16:45He is not getting gone.
01:16:46This is out of Cody and Sammy.
01:16:49Scratch that.
01:16:50This is just Sammy now.
01:16:53Cody getting absolutely battered by an unhinged Scottish psychopath.
01:16:57Here is your winner.
01:17:17The American Nightmare.
01:17:19Cody Rhodes.
01:17:21Drew McIntyre tried to do everything he could
01:17:31to disrupt Rhodes and Fatu's opportunity for greatness.
01:17:38But in the end, it's Cody.
01:17:43In two weeks, six men will be locked inside that elimination chamber.
01:17:48Six men will have one last chance at WrestleMania.
01:17:53And Cody's gonna be one of them, Wade.
01:17:55Well, this was the moment Fatu had the match won.
01:17:58Completely puts a bet until, out of nowhere,
01:18:01Drew McIntyre runs in with that Claymore
01:18:03and then finishes the job for God against Jacob Fatu.
01:18:08And this is the moment that Cody was knocked out cold by that Claymore
01:18:13dragging the carcass of Sami Zayn to cover UB1.
01:18:19This is Sami Zayn going to the elimination chamber.
01:18:22But Cody Rhodes just got a big cover than most.
01:18:26A kick out from Rhodes.
01:18:29Drew McIntyre then returns.
01:18:31Looks to finish the job.
01:18:32But Sami Zayn says,
01:18:33No, I'm not looking for your help.
01:18:35I don't want to win that way.
01:18:36It was a massive error by Zayn.
01:18:39Cody pounces.
01:18:42And one crossroad later,
01:18:44Cody does the unthinkable.
01:18:47Boxes ticket for the elimination chamber in two weeks' time.
01:18:51The dream is still alive.
01:18:53Remember he said he can't look at the sign the same way.
01:18:57He can at least glance at it now.
01:18:59His last grasp at keeping his mania hopes alive.
01:19:05He qualified to do it.
01:19:07Folks, we are two weeks away from elimination chamber.
01:19:11And the American nightmare is going to be there.
01:19:15What a thriller here in Dallas tonight.
