00:00First time ever on broadcast television, the Royal Rumble is next!
00:08Back on Smackdown, Royal Rumble, number one entry, Kurt Angle is dedicated a victory tonight
00:14to all the brave young men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces.
00:20And for Detroit, Michigan, weighing it at 275 pounds, Reno!
00:26This will be a great start to this Rumble, Rhyno and Kurt Angle!
00:31This is going to be 90 seconds right now, you heard the rules, the Man Beast in the first
00:36ever, look at gold medalist Kurt Angle, going to collide right now, kick off the Royal Rumble
00:42here on Smackdown.
00:43Again, the rules are simple, two men start every 90 seconds, another superstar enters, you're
00:48eliminated when you go over the top rope and both feet hit before the last person in the
00:53ring, gets a WWE title shot against Brock Lesnar at No Way Out, February 15th in San Francisco!
01:01Yeah, who's going to make it to the couch?
01:03And Kurt Angle is pointing out of the corner with the big right hands to Rhyno, the Man Beast
01:06from Detroit, Michigan, reverses the U.S.
01:09Oh!
01:10Oh!
01:10Oh!
01:10What a four!
01:13I'll tell you what, Angle might be in trouble here!
01:15Rhyno now has to get Angle over the top rope!
01:19Kurt Angle might be done here!
01:21Well, Rhyno tried to move dead weight, so to speak!
01:23Kurt's hurt!
01:23Kurt's hurt!
01:24He might have broke a rib or something!
01:25You see Rhyno exploding with that door!
01:28Kurt Angle, uh, can't get lifted up because I guess his ribs are damage in that goal!
01:34Let's take a look at the impact here!
01:36Listen to this!
01:37Oh my god!
01:38Oh my god!
01:39Very impressive and that's Rhyno right now.
01:42He's trying to move on.
01:43Nice touch with it here by Angle.
01:44He's got a lot better.
01:45Yeah, Kurt Angle using his amateur background to gain leverage there.
01:48But Rhyno has been on a major roll the last couple of weeks.
01:51He's really turning it up here!
01:53Yeah, Rhyno looked really impressive.
01:54Had a great outing.
01:56He's passed something at the Royal Rumble.
01:58And watch out here.
01:59You're close to the ropes.
02:00You've got to be careful!
02:00Kurt Angle SLAM!
02:01Angle SLAM!
02:02Now Angle's got to get the 275 points!
02:05There's a second goal!
02:06Six seconds goal!
02:07Who's coming out?
02:07Next SmackDown Superstar.
02:09Set to enter the Royal Rumble.
02:13Looks one!
02:14Looks one!
02:15That's Haas!
02:17Charlie Haas!
02:18From Seton Hall University!
02:20Into the ring!
02:21Former Tag Team Champion!
02:22Goes right to work on his former mentor, Kurt Angle!
02:26Good point!
02:26Good point!
02:27They're playing Haas going after Angle here!
02:30Charlie Haas!
02:31That surgery repaired neck by Angle
02:33Re-event backwards!
02:34It's every man for himself!
02:36In the Royal Rumble match here tonight!
02:38The winner gets a shot at the Champion at No Way Out!
02:42I mean, a network television French goal!
02:44We're a part of this week!
02:45Kurt Angle with...
02:46Oh!
02:46And a front kick by Charlie Haas!
02:47Kurt Angle taking a lot of punishment in the early going
02:50It is the number of women in String!
02:52And Haas!
02:53Haas is mocking Kurt Angle here!
02:55And Haas turns back to right on that spot!
02:59Right there by Haas!
03:00Uh-oh!
03:01Uh-oh!
03:01Uh-oh!
03:02Hanging off the ropes!
03:03Charlie Haas!
03:04And days are getting tossed over the top rope by Rhino here!
03:07Remember, you're eliminated when you go over the top rope and both feet hit the floor!
03:11Haas might go, bro!
03:12Haas might go!
03:13And look at Kurt Angle fighting his time and now attacking Rhino from behind!
03:17That was lost for Kurt Angle to wait!
03:19Wait for Weeds there and wait!
03:22The Haas will be down and then looks like Rhino gets a clock from behind!
03:25That was one of your keys to victory when we talked about the Rumpel match up this past Sunday!
03:29Which one?
03:30Uh, waiting!
03:31Waiting for time!
03:33That's right!
03:33I did time!
03:34I'm talking about what happened later in the match when I was in there!
03:37Conditioning!
03:38Yes!
03:38I know the eye!
03:39I know them!
03:39Well, I got that!
03:41Well, why didn't you repeat them then?
03:42And when he is!
03:42Kurt Angle!
03:43And he going over!
03:44He's out of the apron!
03:45Slid under the bottom rope!
03:46He's not eliminated!
03:47Both feet must hit the floor!
03:48Three seconds!
03:49Two!
03:50One!
03:52One!
03:53One!
03:54Oh, this will be good!
03:55Haas again!
03:56Oh!
03:56Missed!
03:57Benjamin!
03:58The remembrance every man for himself!
04:00And how are Benjamin and Haas gonna get along in this one?
04:03It usually sounds the same though.
04:04Kurt Angle after his former pupil shouting Benjamin.
04:07Uh-oh!
04:07Uh-oh!
04:07Oh!
04:08That's a great two-plex for Kurt Angle!
04:09And Angle has been the second target of every attack here tonight!
04:13Well, the world's greatest game team going after that former Mendel and Rhino pick up the stretch!
04:17Hold up from the top rope by Charlie Haas!
04:20Great tag team broke there by the former tag champs!
04:22The world's greatest tag team!
04:24Yes!
04:24And they keep together in the local matchup!
04:27Oh!
04:28Look at his back suplex!
04:30Kurt Angle connecting shut and Benjamin!
04:32He's trying to get Rhino over the top rope!
04:33Kurt Angle with another German suplex!
04:35It's time to show him!
04:37Kurt Angle waiting there!
04:38Picking his spot!
04:40And now those three German suplexes!
04:42One for Benjamin, one for Haas!
04:44Angle shots to Rhino's midsection near to Charlie Haas!
04:47Kurt Angle on the attack here!
04:49Trying to keep all men down as Kurt Angle!
04:52Nice!
04:52With a smash suplex to Shetton Benjamin!
04:55Right between Haas, Benjamin, and Angle!
04:57All these suplexes are over the place!
05:00But again, Kurt Angle's at a disadvantage just over the back!
05:03And Kurt Angle entered this rumble match as the number one superstar!
05:07You've got to get through 14 others to get a shot at the title!
05:11Well, well, Benoit did it and then Benoit walked out of us!
05:15Benoit won for Royal Rumble and left him for real!
05:17Yeah, he shot after a legal loophole!
05:19The reason for this Royal Rumble match tonight is Paul Heyman's response to Benoit walking out!
05:24Oh, yeah, he walked out on Heyman!
05:26Uh-oh!
05:30It is Bradshaw!
05:33Oh, man!
05:35He thinks he's gonna get roughed out!
05:37Well, Bradshaw did the rumble on Sunday!
05:39With both barrels, Lorda was dropping people off the right!
05:43A big clothesline by Bradshaw!
05:46Shot to Rhino!
05:47Uh-oh!
05:47A big clothesline by Bradshaw!
05:54Shot to Rhino!
05:56Oh, what a clothesline!
05:58Oh!
05:58What the hell?
05:59Are you kidding?
05:59And now Shep Benjamin.
06:01Shot to the midsection on Bradshaw.
06:03Bradshaw.
06:04Reversal.
06:04Here's Benjamin.
06:05Oh, what a boot by Bradshaw!
06:10The number seven entry, Tajiri into the Royal Rumble match.
06:14Look out!
06:14Oh!
06:15Oh!
06:16Well, during the commercial break, the cat was eliminated from the rumble match.
06:20And we'll show you what happened in just a little bit, but look at Rhino going after Tajiri.
06:25Rhino eliminated Tajiri from the rumble match this past Sunday.
06:28Uh-oh!
06:29Uh-oh!
06:30Oh!
06:30What a shot!
06:31What a kick!
06:32By Tajiri.
06:33But let's take you back and show you how the cat entered this Royal Rumble match up here tonight.
06:39Well, the cat came in with all his guns loaded, but, uh, he was shooting breaks real quick.
06:45And he got the Royal Rumble for this past Sunday.
06:48Oh!
06:49The cat's pretty blasted London, and the cat ended up walking around!
06:53But look at the cat's moves here!
06:55He's actually doing offensive moves!
06:57Are we impressed?
06:58And then, the cat doing his, some kind of a dancing maneuver.
07:03Oh my God.
07:051986 wanted a stance that back.
07:07Yeah, he walked the rope off back.
07:08Stank.
07:09And look at Kurt Angle.
07:11Yeah, Kurt Angle not too impressed.
07:13Look at that thing is the cat!
07:15The cat was eliminated by Kurt Angle.
07:19Now back to action.
07:20I like the cat. I like the cat. Somebody call his mom.
07:22He's got a haircut like you.
07:23Somebody call him a taxi.
07:25Oh, look at Charlie Haas.
07:27Five, four, four, four seconds.
07:29Who's coming out? Who's next?
07:36Billy Gunn made his return to Sonny at the Rumble.
07:39And Billy Gunn's back here tonight on SmackDown.
07:43Billy Gunn on the hop.
07:45Look at that bulls line.
07:47Famous shot!
07:48It comes to Bradshaw.
07:50They're rolling up with a ball pin for Billy Gunn.
07:53Billy Gunn is rolling here.
07:55Billy Gunn, look at the goal.
07:57Oh, Shelton Benjamin hanging on.
07:59Oh, nothing touched.
08:00Wow.
08:01I'll tell you, Benjamin's been expressed now.
08:03Oh, there goes Haas.
08:04Charlie Haas hanging on.
08:05The world's greatest tag team doing very well here tonight.
08:09Don't doubt him.
08:10Oh, what a spinebuster driving Tajiri to the center of the ring.
08:14That's not good for Tajiri, but what's happening with Angle here with Billy Gunn?
08:18Yeah, Billy Gunn with a right-handed Kurt Angle.
08:20Who'll be moving so far?
08:21Lamont and the cat, right?
08:23Lamont was never in, just the cat.
08:24Yeah, I just like saying his name, Lamont.
08:27Lamont.
08:27And look at Billy Gunn trying to eliminate Kurt Angle.
08:30Charlie Haas working on Tajiri.
08:32Bradshaw and Lionel are out.
08:33What the hell?
08:34Yeah, Tajiri help out!
08:35That's an elbow connecting.
08:36That's risky, doing that kind of move in a match like this by Tajiri.
08:41They're gonna risk.
08:41I'm impressed with that.
08:42Food up underneath the throat of Kurt Angle.
08:44Yeah, look at Tajiri.
08:46That's locked!
08:47That's locked!
08:47That's locked!
08:48Kurt Angle with the ankle locked locked into Shelton Benjamin.
08:51What a white hand by Billy Gunn!
08:55Oof!
08:56Pump handle slim!
08:58On to Tajiri.
08:59Four seconds!
09:00Who's gonna be next?
09:01And who's gonna make it to San Francisco with no way out for the title shot?
09:05Oh no!
09:06I'm in!
09:09I'm down!
09:10I'll tell you.
09:11Big Show, look at the superstars.
09:13He realizes what he needs.
09:14How dominating was the Big Show sub-and-for-Rubble?
09:18Oh, extremely dominant!
09:19Big Show's been on a tear!
09:22The pass-abree of the Big Giant has been ruthless!
09:26And all the SmackDown superstars know it's on right now!
09:30Yeah, they want to eliminate the Big Show quick!
09:32Big Show lasted nearly 23 minutes Sunday at the Rumble!
09:36He was the last man with Chris Benoit!
09:39And the Superstars trying to eliminate the Big Show only here!
09:42They're gonna use the upgraded Giant strategy!
09:45And this happened!
09:46Big Show just cleared everyone out!
09:49Clearing the pile, baby!
09:51And Big Show exploding!
09:53This pass-abree of the Royal Rumble!
09:55The Raw and SmackDown superstars!
09:57Try that strategy!
09:58A couple of times!
09:59I don't think so!
10:00And Science does matter!
10:01Look at Tajiri!
10:03Uh-oh, look out!
10:04Tajiri's in trouble here!
10:18Tajiri!
10:19Teamwork!
10:20Teammates here!
10:21Oh!
10:21Big Show explodes again!
10:23How powerful is this?
10:25But Bradshaw with the big boot!
10:27Oh, man!
10:29Bradshaw with the cellist there!
10:32Take another look!
10:34As Big Show explodes in the corner!
10:36Check out Bradshaw!
10:38Big boot!
10:39And Bradshaw's got Hawkeh!
10:41No doubt!
10:42Oh, look!
10:43A big clothesline possibly!
10:45But the Big Show dropped down!
10:48Look at this!
10:48Going for a German suplex!
10:50And Big Show with the big butt!
10:53Wow!
10:57The doctor!
10:59John Cena!
11:01Injured at left knee!
11:03Sunday in the Rumble!
11:04Never hands in the Big Show!
11:06But John Cena!
11:08Showing the guts that he has!
11:10On his way to the ring!
11:12He wants a title shot!
11:13And look at the Big Show!
11:15John Cena showing all that you are correct,
11:17but John Cena also showing
11:19he's got a little gift in his lip,
11:21but you know what I'm saying?
11:22I think that knee's hurt!
11:24And that's not good to let the Big Show see that!
11:26Well, I don't know!
11:27John Cena was rolling in the Rumble on Sunday!
11:30And Cena upset the Big Show eliminated!
11:33Showing no intimidation here tonight!
11:35And Cena with a right hand!
11:36To the 7-foot-500 pounder!
11:39John Cena trying to knock the Big Show out of his own!
11:41John Cena's trying to eliminate the Big Show by himself!
11:45But Cena!
11:46Oh, whoa!
11:46Cena!
11:46Big Show just hanging on!
11:52Big Show working on the knee of John Cena
11:55back here in the Rumble match!
11:56And this is the reason why!
11:58Moments ago during the commercial break,
11:59John Cena eliminating Nuncio,
12:01but again injured that left knee!
12:05And the Big Show like a shark-smelling gun!
12:08Going right to work on that knee of John Cena!
12:10Remember, Big Show and John Cena have a history!
12:13Big Show really wants to get back at John Cena!
12:16After everything they've been through
12:17for the past few months!
12:18Oh, I remember!
12:19Don't you worry!
12:20I remember!
12:20Remember the battle race?
12:21I remember!
12:23Oh, well, here we go!
12:24Later, man!
12:25As we heard, Eddie regained his costume!
12:28Eddie's hospital, Robert!
12:29Can it be?
12:30No, he's not here!
12:31No way!
12:33Eddie!
12:33Eddie!
12:33But then it is, Eddie!
12:35Eddie's back!
12:37Eddie's got that lot of confidence!
12:39He's in the back earlier on tonight!
12:41Was taken to the medical facility!
12:42What the hell?
12:43But Eddie's back!
12:44Not enough to call unlucky 13!
12:47I think that's his number!
12:49I don't know if this is...
12:50Eddie Guerrero can't have all his wits together here!
12:54And A-Train realizes that it goes right on the assault of Eddie Guerrero!
12:57And it may be a short step!
12:58Oh, yeah, see!
12:59And Eddie Guerrero!
13:00All fired up!
13:01Trying to back A-Train into the rope!
13:02Oh, my God!
13:03A-Train violated!
13:05Well, that was damn impressive!
13:06I'll tell you that by Eddie Guerrero there!
13:08And now Eddie Guerrero goes to work on Billy Gunn!
13:11Latino Heat trying to fire up here tonight!
13:13Fresh off the beating of his nephew Chavo at the rope!
13:17And the Big Show waiting in the corner!
13:19Stalking his prey!
13:20The Big Show picking his spot!
13:22And his spot is now!
13:24Kurt Angle looking to eliminate!
13:26Electric chair possibly here by the Big Show!
13:29And Eddie Guerrero!
13:30You see Kurt Angle on the far side with Charlie Haas!
13:32Eddie Guerrero!
13:33How the hell is Eddie Guerrero in this match, Cole?
13:35The man was hitting at the Serena!
13:37I have no idea!
13:37The Ambulance Arena unconscious on his stretcher!
13:41The oxygen strapped to his mouth!
13:42He was put in an ambulance!
13:44Oh!
13:44Somehow Eddie Guerrero was here!
13:45And if he was knocked unconscious, he did have some sort of concussion!
13:48That headbutt by the Big Show didn't help!
13:51He's coming out!
13:54Oh, man!
13:55Small feet!
13:57Big Keesh!
13:59The Keese seat!
14:01Number 14!
14:03There's one left!
14:06Man, Big...
14:07I'll tell ya!
14:08Big Show now watering!
14:11John Cena!
14:12He gotta be careful of Rikishi!
14:13Big Show!
14:14And Rikishi quickly into the ring!
14:16Rikishi goes to work on Billy Gunn!
14:18A title shot!
14:19And no way out!
14:20Is on the line here!
14:22Uh-oh!
14:22Uh-oh!
14:22Sunset flip!
14:23Oh, now Billy Gunn realizes he was in trouble!
14:27A Savant kick!
14:28Billy Gunn knocked up!
14:29No!
14:29Oh, no!
14:30Billy Gunn hung on!
14:31Both feet didn't touch the floor!
14:33Rikishi with the right hand!
14:34No!
14:35To the Big Show!
14:36These are two big balls right here!
14:39Two largest men in the matchup right now!
14:41Big Show's in trouble!
14:42Angle!
14:43Oh!
14:43Close line, Angle!
14:46This could change the complexion of the match!
14:48The biggest sneak face in the world's coming!
14:50Oh, my God!
14:52Big Show with a face fall!
14:55You know your ass is big when the Big Show's head fixing it!
14:59That's a great point!
15:01Rikishi is blowing!
15:03Oh, Big Show now!
15:04Oh!
15:05Oh, my God!
15:07He saw a ghost!
15:08Oh!
15:09Oh, man!
15:11Oh, no!
15:12Billy!
15:12Billy!
15:13Billy!
15:14Look out!
15:14No!
15:15Oh, my God!
15:17Billy Gunn!
15:18But Billy Gunn's the ass, man!
15:20You can't do that to the ass, man!
15:22Rikishi can do whatever he wants!
15:25This is the final entry!
15:27Here in the Wumble Match!
15:29Joke Slam!
15:30Hardcore, baby!
15:32Hardcore, Holly!
15:33And you know he would love to win this match tonight!
15:36And get his hands on Brock Lesnar again!
15:39Oh, yeah!
15:39And no way out!
15:40Hardcore, Holly's temper's got to be flaring like a pack of henroids!
15:45I'm telling you, Hardcore, he can come out and win this thing!
15:48I'd still stick with the Big Show!
15:50Hardcore, Holly with the right hand!
15:53All 15 superstars have entered this matchup!
15:55Angle!
15:56Angle might be going!
15:57And Kurt Angle again trying to hang out at the top rope!
15:59Look at!
15:59Look at Cena!
16:00Oh, man!
16:01That's just lunacy!
16:02Well, Cena's got guts!
16:04I'll give the man credit!
16:05But that engine need trying to push up five of the pounds for an FU!
16:08But now the people are...
16:10Hardcore, Holly's working on Kurt Angle!
16:12Kurt Angle ended this matchup number one!
16:13Oh, look at John Cena!
16:14John Cena may be eliminated by the Big Show again!
16:17John Cena on the apron!
16:19That's size 22.5 in feet!
16:22John Cena eliminated by Big Show!
16:25But what an effort by John Cena!
16:27Literally on one leg!
16:29Now, it looks like some of the superstars, Angle and Nubikishi,
16:33seeing the opportunity of possibly getting rid of the Big Show!
16:36One leg just scrapped over the top rope!
16:39Angle realizing Big Show may be the largest threat in this matchup right now!
16:44And I still am...
16:45I don't understand how Guerrero's still in there!
16:48But Big Show might be going!
16:49No, that's my pick!
16:50Angle trying to get everybody to help the Big Show!
16:52Oh, no!
16:52John Cena!
16:53Well, that's right!
16:54He's getting involved!
16:55Oh!
16:55Big Show!
16:56Big Show eliminated!
16:57John Cena with some payment!
17:00Oh, no, no, no, no!
17:01That's a bunch of BS!
17:03That ain't bloody legal!
17:05How do I see if we get away with that?
17:07We're down to seven superstars!
17:11A title opportunity and no way out February 15th is what the winner gets
17:16on the first ever world of a match!
17:18Uh-oh!
17:18On network television!
17:20And Shelton Benjamin!
17:22Close to being eliminated for him!
17:23He got nobody home off the top turbuckle!
17:25Crash and burn there!
17:26Billy Gunn crashed and burned!
17:28And Shelton Benjamin left me go!
17:30But now Angle's pinpointed by Haas!
17:32Charlie Haas working on Kurt Angle!
17:34Eddie Guerrero on Billy Gunn!
17:35Rikishi with Shelton Benjamin!
17:37Rikishi!
17:37We're highly buying some time here!
17:39Rikishi needs a little help there!
17:40Trying to get Shelton to all tie it up in those whoops like a pretzel!
17:43Let's say that's the best!
17:44The superstars eliminated this matchup first year fed with the Cat!
17:47Yeah, the Cat, uh, shades of the Royal Rumble this past Sunday, Gunn!
17:52How about Tajiri, one-armed by the Big Show!
17:55Yeah, right, look at the power right here by the Big Giant!
17:58Tajiri, the Bulls will have Gunn!
18:00And Brad Shaw with a huge boot!
18:03And look at this happening!
18:05Well, the Big Show had to wear before to get out of the way!
18:08And now, look at that A-Train!
18:09Eddie Guerrero fresh off the Giant from a medical facility!
18:14Tossing up a 350-pound A-Train!
18:18Rikishi back him up to Eddie Guerrero in the corner!
18:21Remember, Eddie Guerrero was sent to a medical facility in an ambulance, unconscious!
18:26Just a bit ago, he's back in his match!
18:28Huffler, more of those 350-pound, uh, rear end of Rikishi in the back of, uh, Guerrero!
18:33He'll be back in the hospital!
18:34Eddie Guerrero's here just like the rest of these superstars!
18:36Because that's what a WWE title opportunity means!
18:40Those title opportunities come very far in between, but...
18:45Eddie Guerrero caught by Charlie Haas!
18:46Look at this!
18:47Eddie Guerrero!
18:48And he didn't get all of Eddie trying to...
18:50Who can run over the top?
18:52Here's a Charlie Haas!
18:53Eliminated by Eddie!
18:55Charlie Haas blasted nearly this entire Rumble matchup as he entered at number three!
19:01Very impressive by Latino Heat, Eddie Guerrero!
19:05And now we're down to six!
19:07And he's got the number one entry, Carregal!
19:09And he's got it!
19:10And he's got it!
19:10And he's got it eliminated!
19:13Carregal eliminated his former people!
19:15What a shot to the head by the Big Keys on Engel!
19:18Look at this, Engel slipped away!
19:20Oh, dang!
19:21Engel slagged with a 350-pounder, Eddie Guerrero!
19:25And then he's got it!
19:26Top low cross-splash!
19:27Connecting!
19:28Oh, my God!
19:30Who the hell is going to get a chance to meet Brock Lesnar at No Way Out?
19:36How the hell did Engel do an Engel slam?
19:37It's going to be in the...
19:38Oh, yes!
19:39Carregal eliminated by Kurt Angle!
19:41We're down to four!
19:42Billy Gunn, Rikishi, Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle!
19:45Final four here!
19:46And Holly's hot!
19:48Of course, Kurt Angle from behind!
19:52They're looking hardcore Holly all upset!
19:56What a word situation!
19:58Hardcore Holly!
19:59Kurt Angle just got fucked in!
20:01Take another look at the elimination of hardcore Holly!
20:04Oh, cool!
20:05All right, yeah, we'll get to see this!
20:07Wow, Engel's Holly!
20:08Man, that's tough break for Hall of Law!
20:10You gotta go!
20:12And they were trash-talking!
20:15And Billy Gunn going after that head with those right hands!
20:20Eddie Guerrero, who knows what the man's condition is!
20:23Wow!
20:23Eddie looking good here!
20:25Eddie Guerrero, it's over!
20:27Yep, throw room for a monkey flip of Billy Gunn!
20:29First shot of time for Eddie Guerrero!
20:30Billy Gunn!
20:32And he desperately trying to hang on!
20:36Here he does!
20:38Eddie Guerrero, man!
20:40Gonna have an horseshoe in his hand!
20:42Okay, Kurt Angle, Eddie Guerrero, Rikishi left!
20:45What's the strategy?
20:46I'll tell you, I think if I'm Angle and Eddie...
20:50That's it!
20:50Go after Rikishi!
20:52Rikishi's got that big size advantage!
20:55And Angle and Eddie Guerrero!
20:57Stalking the 350-pound Rikishi!
21:00Rikishi trying to battle back!
21:01Rikishi playing possum now!
21:03That's one big-ass possum!
21:06Rikishi!
21:06Uh-oh!
21:07Pose line!
21:08Rikishi is rolling!
21:10Rikishi could be pried!
21:12Angle's in trouble!
21:13And Angle's in trouble!
21:14And that's the guy kick to Kurt Angle!
21:17Eddie Guerrero walks in!
21:19Whoa!
21:20I'll tell you what, the big kiss might be Cal Palace bound, Paul!
21:25Rikishi is feeling it here!
21:30Look at Rikishi!
21:32Whoa!
21:32The 350-pounder with a shot!
21:34And a chin of Kurt Angle!
21:35Dominating here!
21:37Right on the back!
21:38With that modified show slam!
21:40Big kiss is climbing!
21:42Oh, man!
21:43And that big bottom's gonna fall out on Angle!
21:45Oh, my God!
21:46Look out!
21:47Kurt Angle!
21:48Whoa!
21:49Rikishi!
21:51The White House just shook!
21:53Oh, my God!
21:55Rikishi!
21:56In trouble!
21:57As Kurt Angle rolled out of the way!
21:59Eddie Guerrero back to his feet as well!
22:01Eddie Guerrero gonna seize this opportunity if he can watch that thing!
22:05Trying to get the 350-pounder over the top rope!
22:07Eddie Guerrero's hands are in no-man's land!
22:10Eddie Guerrero!
22:11And he's trying!
22:11He's struggling!
22:12And Rikishi with an elbow!
22:14Knockin' Eddie Guerrero down!
22:16Kurt Angle down!
22:17Look at Angle!
22:17Look at Angle right there!
22:18Shooting that single!
22:19And trying to get rid of the big kiss!
22:20I don't think one person can do this!
22:23One person can eliminate him!
22:25Rikishi!
22:25He's too damn big!
22:26Kurt Angle's the number one entry in this thing!
22:30And Kurt Angle!
22:31Here's the double team!
22:32Rikishi eliminated!
22:34Wow!
22:34It went down to two!
22:35Kurt Angle and Eddie Guerrero!
22:38Look at this!
22:40It isn't this ironic!
22:41It comes down to these two superstars!
22:44Angle has been a counselor such for Eddie Guerrero!
22:47Trying to be a peacekeeper for the Guerrero family!
22:49And now it has come down to this!
22:51And Brock Lesnar's gotta be watching this!
22:54You know that!
22:56Who's it gonna be, man?
22:57Pick him!
22:58Oh, pick him!
22:58The number one entry, Kurt Angle!
23:00Who do you like?
23:00Who do you like?
23:00I'm not sure!
23:01Because this is why!
23:02Angle is the number one entry!
23:03He's been in this entire match-up!
23:05Eddie Guerrero may be suffering from some sort of concussion!
23:08Have to go to the medical facility!
23:10I think it's a toss-up here!
23:11I don't know, I'm gonna go with Angle!
23:13I'm gonna go with Angle!
23:14Oh, nice goal behind!
23:14Takedown there!
23:16Kurt going back to his roots!
23:17Look at this!
23:18Whoever would take this late, this for a whole match!
23:20You'd see pure Matt wrestling!
23:23I'm impressed the conditioning of both these world-class athletes!
23:26Eddie Guerrero with an elbow in the face of Kurt Angle!
23:29Kurt Angle looking at Eddie!
23:30Why should you do that?
23:31And Kurt Angle said, you want to put him away!
23:32Whoa, whoa, whoa!
23:33Come on, on the top rope!
23:35Come on, maybe you're with the angle!
23:35Hang on, Kurt Angle!
23:36Hang on, Kurt Angle!
23:36Hang on!
23:37In the lane is on the apron!
23:38Oh, so close for Eddie Guerrero!
23:40So close for a shot at Brock Lesnar!
23:42Hey, look at the right hand by Angle!
23:43Battle of the back against Eddie Guerrero!
23:45Yeah, this is it!
23:46She's Guerrero's hurt, man!
23:49Guerrero, again, we've got to pull-not-not-not-not-not-been a dead horse,
23:52but Eddie Guerrero, Latino Heat, was taken to a hospital for this arena in an ambulance early tonight!
24:00Well, Kurt Angle protested Eddie Guerrero's injury, but now he's trying to exploit it in the spirit of competition!
24:09Letitio Heat take out to Kurt Angle, the winner, heads to no way out for the WWE title!
24:13And what a German suplex by Kurt Angle!
24:16And Angle's got his fingers clasped, his hands are still clasped, he's going to sink in another German!
24:22And again, the back of the head of Guerrero is crocking into that mat!
24:28Kurt Angle, so disappointed when he was eliminated Sunday, looking to win this matchup!
24:33It's dedicated to the U.S. Armed Forces!
24:36Eddie Guerrero, showing the guts and resilience of Latino Heat!
24:39It's this! Eddie Guerrero!
24:40Hanging out on the apron!
24:42Kurt Angle believes he won!
24:43Uh-oh, uh-oh, now he realizes he didn't!
24:45Easy, Kurt, easy!
24:46And Kurt Angle in trouble, late-cawning between those...
24:50Uh-oh, Angle's doing some haymakers now!
24:53Eddie Guerrero is preparing his position!
24:55And Eddie Guerrero with an ankle lock!
24:56A Kurt Angle!
24:57A Kurt Angle's move!
24:59Kurt Angle, center of the ring, it allows Eddie to get back into the ring!
25:02Eddie Guerrero, with the ankle lock locked into Kurt Angle!
25:05A crafty...
25:06Oh, wow, what a sprint!
25:08And Kurt Angle reverses into Angle, look at his own!
25:11How good is Angle?
25:12How impressive was that?
25:14Kurt...
25:15My God, what a counter!
25:17Angle knows his own move, been in anybody!
25:19And Kurt Angle, very upset earlier on with Eddie to the hospital!
25:23Oh!
25:23And Kurt Angle trying to exploit the head injury!
25:26Now with the ankle lock locked in, with Eddie Guerrero caught up on the top rope!
25:29And listen to Eddie!
25:32Kurt Angle putting on a...
25:33It's Angle!
25:34Eddie Guerrero just hanging on!
25:36Just hanging on!
25:38Just hanging on!
25:49If we take another look, can Eddie get hurt here?
25:51I think Eddie's still going to touch!
25:53Oh, wow!
25:54But both feet have to touch!
25:55And I just won!
25:56The both feet have to touch!
25:58Good goal, good goal!
25:59And Kurt Angle, you see, favoring that knee.
26:02Eddie Guerrero favoring the ankle.
26:03Also, he might have been concussed earlier on.
26:06Kurt Angle with a big right hand!
26:08Kurt Angle too!
26:08Remember, Eddie had his own...
26:09Eddie Kurt's own move, the ankle lock, put on Angle!
26:12Remember, no submission, no pinfall here!
26:15You have to eliminate your opponent by putting on the top rope in both feet!
26:18Hit him for!
26:18I don't know what's going on and leaving to shoot your opponent to those ropes!
26:21You gotta be careful here!
26:22What's his strategy here?
26:23Wow!
26:24Is it to wear your opponent down?
26:25Well, try to...
26:26This is...
26:27Vintage Guerrero, these triple verticals...
26:29I think the strategy is to try and stay away from the ropes!
26:33That's obvious!
26:34A blind man could see that!
26:35And Kurt Angle in all kinds of trouble here!
26:38As Eddie Guerrero looks close!
26:40Just perhaps eliminating Agle in this matchup!
26:45I'm shocked that Eddie's in this match!
26:47I still won't get it!
26:48And you see Eddie...
26:49He hurt them!
26:50Hold his head there, his equilibrium may be off a bit!
26:53Yeah, but...
26:54This is bad.
26:55I don't agree with this.
26:56Eddie's going for a fast flash, and Kurt's going to play fast!
26:58Kurt Angle!
26:59I knew it!
26:59I told you!
27:01Battling back against Eddie on the top rope, Eddie's in trouble here!
27:04Yeah, Eddie's in trouble, he's standing on that top rope!
27:06Oh, and both men!
27:08Caught on the top rope, both men hanging on!
27:10And Eddie made the mistake he said he shouldn't make!
27:13He went to the ropes, and that could cost Latino heat!
27:16Eddie's hanging, his leg is poured up in that rope!
27:20Kurt Angle's back in the ring!
27:21Eddie Guerrero's on the apron!
27:23Eddie's got to get back under those ropes and back into the ring!
27:25And I think he did!
27:27Brian Hefner, the referee, looking on!
27:28Eddie's got to get all the way back in here!
27:31Eddie is in the ring, and so is Angle!
27:34No rushing!
27:35You've got to pick your spot!
27:37This is just human chess, as you know!
27:39Proverbial words go, man!
27:40Thirteenth shot, knocked out, superstars were eliminated!
27:43These two remain!
27:45The winner to beat Brock Lesnar for the WWE title at No Way Out!
27:50Eddie!
27:51Eddie!
27:53Kurt Angle's sleeper hole!
27:54Smart!
27:55Oh man, so smart to go for a sleeper hole!
27:57Never expected to see this out of either of these athletes just late in this match!
28:00Smart sleeper by Angle!
28:02There's two reasons for the sleeper hole!
28:03One, Eddie Guerrero was already knocked unconscious here tonight!
28:06Choke him out!
28:07And number two, if Eddie Guerrero does fade here, it does go unconscious again!
28:10Kurt Angle just got to lift him up and toss him over the rope!
28:13Easy like Sunday morning, brother!
28:15You choke your man out!
28:16You shut him over the top!
28:17It's a night off at the park!
28:19And that's what's happened!
28:20The blood flow stopping to the injured Eddie Guerrero!
28:23Who knows what Eddie's condition was ever when the paramedic flips him!
28:27Well, all we know is that he was unconscious!
28:29And he may become unconscious again here as Kurt Angle!
28:33He may get out of a chance if he wins this matchup against Latino Heat here tonight!
28:38Look at how close Kurt keeps his body to Eddie Guerrero!
28:41Keep the separation to a nil, to nothing!
28:44Keep the pressure on the neck and the throat!
28:46Eddie back to his feet!
28:47And then he's trying to create separation!
28:49Kurt Angle!
28:49My God!
28:50And almost eliminated!
28:52Eddie Guerrero almost caught Kurt Angle there!
28:54Big time!
28:55Impressive!
28:56Right there by Guerrero!
28:57But that might have been the last burst energy of Eddie Guerrero!
29:00And Kurt Angle's got to capitalize here!
29:02Realizing that Kurt Angle has got to take advantage of Eddie Guerrero!
29:05And a right hand by Latino Heat!
29:06Uh oh!
29:07Kurt Angle's in trouble!
29:08Oh man!
29:08Angle's teetering here!
29:09If Angle's feet hit the floor he's eliminated!
29:12Another right hand by Eddie Guerrero!
29:14Kurt Angle barely hanging on!
29:16Angle's in trouble!
29:19Another right hand!
29:20And Kurt Angle's still hanging on!
29:22Kurt might be playing possum!
29:24Eddie Guerrero!
29:25And watch!
29:25I knew it!
29:26I knew it!
29:28Kurt Angle saw the opening, saw the opportunity and capitalized!
29:33I'm just saying!
29:34I'm just saying!
29:34Oh look at this!
29:36Kurt Angle!
29:36Gonna suplex Eddie Guerrero!
29:37And he's going!
29:38And he's done!
29:39Eddie Guerrero's gonna be eliminated here!
29:42Uh oh!
29:43Eddie Guerrero just countered!
29:44It brought Kurt Angle!
29:45To the ring!
29:47And how's he doing?
29:47Kurt Angle eliminated!
29:49Eddie Guerrero!
29:50Is gonna strike the title!
29:53Here's your winner!
29:54Eddie Guerrero!
29:56Can you believe?
29:58Eddie Guerrero!
29:59How the hell did Eddie Guerrero?
30:01Kurt's upset!
30:02Kurt's very disappointed!
30:04But how did Eddie Guerrero do this?
30:05The competitive nature of Kurt Angle coming out!
30:08Kurt Angle's disappointed!
30:10But Eddie Guerrero!
30:12Booking the odds!
30:13Eddie Guerrero heads it no way out!
30:16Eddie Guerrero meets Leicester for the championship!
30:18That's right!
30:19That's exactly what's gonna happen!
30:21Eddie Guerrero!
30:22Getting a title shot against Leicester!
30:25And look at how disappointed Angle is!
30:27Great match!
30:28Great Royal Rumble!
30:29Look at the outpouring of emotion!
30:31In Latino heat, Eddie Guerrero!
30:34An absolutely incredible match!
