00:00:02Yes, sir, we promised you a great minute here in this world.
00:00:05Andres, a child of the media.
00:00:07Pokomania is running wild.
00:00:09My God, what the hell?
00:00:10He feels the man in front of you.
00:00:14This kind of world is watching.
00:00:23I've proven time and time again to be the best in the world.
00:00:28I'm a wrestling machine.
00:00:35Kurt Angle, you currently possess the one thing I desire.
00:00:42The World Heavyweight Championship.
00:00:58Kurt Angle, The Undertaker, who is heading to WrestleMania as the champion.
00:01:04Look at this.
00:01:05Watch it.
00:01:05Oh, God.
00:01:07Slam.
00:01:08Through the announce table.
00:01:10Uh-oh.
00:01:10Look at this.
00:01:11Check it out, man.
00:01:12Slam.
00:01:13This is absolutely vicious.
00:01:15We got ourselves a fight here, folks.
00:01:18This battle is one for the ages, Cole.
00:01:22Watch your angle.
00:01:24Undertaker counter.
00:01:25He's got the choke line.
00:01:26Look at this.
00:01:26Triangle choke.
00:01:27Look at this.
00:01:27He rolls through.
00:01:28Wait a minute.
00:01:29Kurt Angle pinned it.
00:01:30Wait a minute.
00:01:30Kurt Angle pinned it.
00:01:31Slow down.
00:01:31He didn't pin anything.
00:01:32The winner of this match by pinfall, Kurt Angle.
00:01:37Oh, my God.
00:01:38Oh, my God.
00:01:39Kurt Angle is the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:01:42I've got your number.
00:01:44I'm not going to be here.
00:01:49And tonight, the biggest main event in SmackDown history.
00:01:53The rematch from their classic and no way out.
00:01:56Kurt Angle versus The Undertaker.
00:01:59The World Heavyweight Championship.
00:02:02And it takes place tonight only on Friday Night SmackDown.
00:02:16And I won't be here tonight.
00:02:20The Lord outside will use my pride.
00:02:25And I will rise up.
00:02:28Break it out.
00:02:29Break it down.
00:02:30Break it real.
00:02:31Break it well.
00:02:33Have your chance.
00:02:34Now it's gone.
00:02:35Are you safe?
00:02:36Are you gone?
00:02:51It is indeed a big fight feel at the MCI Center in our nation's capital tonight.
00:02:58We are about to witness the biggest main event in the history of Friday Night SmackDown.
00:03:04Hello again, everybody.
00:03:06I'm Michael Cole.
00:03:07Alongside Kaz at ringside.
00:03:09And tonight, SmackDown is simply about wall-to-wall action.
00:03:14Oh, non-stop action.
00:03:15No doubt.
00:03:16But Cole, check it out.
00:03:17How much bigger can this get?
00:03:18The greatest World Heavyweight Championship rematch in the history of SmackDown.
00:03:23We're getting that tonight, baby.
00:03:24Off the top.
00:03:24And you know it's big when we're joined by our Spanish colleagues, Hugo Sabinovich,
00:03:28Carl Cabrera.
00:03:29Ever inside.
00:03:30Hello, guys.
00:03:30Thank you, Michael Cole.
00:03:31Thank you, Michael Cole.
00:03:31In effect, one of the most fabulous fights in the history of the pay-per-views between Engel
00:03:37and the other thing that he transcends in a rematch, too, is absolutely insuperable today.
00:03:40Rematch, he's going to go Washington.
00:03:42This is SmackDown.
00:03:45And we are kicking things off with the former United States Champion.
00:03:52Ah, look, it's a great uncle.
00:03:55Can't you dig it, sucker?
00:04:05Ho-ho!
00:04:09Following contest to Schedule 4, one ball, making its way to the ring, being accompanied by
00:04:14Sharmel from Houston, Texas, weighing in the 256 pounds, Booker T.
00:04:22It's been a rough week for Booker T and his wife, Sharmel, out here on commentary, complaining
00:04:26about general manager at Theodore Long, the way he runs SmackDown when, uh, well, they
00:04:32sort of had a confrontation with the Boogeyman.
00:04:35Confrontation, Cole.
00:04:36I couldn't believe it, I couldn't believe it, Booker Man came out here and just freaked out by everybody.
00:04:40Booker T, Randy, high-tailed it, along with his Buckley Thrive, Sharmel, and then, we high-tailed
00:04:45it, too.
00:04:46I couldn't believe this.
00:04:47I've never seen him like this in my life.
00:04:49The table still sticks.
00:04:52You think they cleaned this thing off?
00:04:54I've been looking for worms since I sat down out here tonight.
00:04:57Well, anyway, that was good, and this is now the Bookman.
00:05:01I'll tell you, you can feel it tonight.
00:05:04You can feel the electricity in the air at the MCI Center.
00:05:09Booker T kicking things off, World Heavyweight Championship still to come, and here comes Tataka.
00:05:15And from Cumberland, North Carolina, weighing in his 253 pounds, Tataka.
00:05:23Tataka's had a pretty successful couple of weeks, along with Matt Hardy, not going to
00:05:26stop the Tag Team Champions in a non-total matchup, but there's no way out.
00:05:30Oh, hi, Sharmel, how are you?
00:05:32Nice to see you, hi.
00:05:33Booker T, Bryce, the...
00:05:34Let me help you out here, hold on.
00:05:36There you go.
00:05:36Let me be a gentleman.
00:05:38Someone, one of them has to be a gentleman.
00:05:40Paul's not.
00:05:41Hello, Sharmel, how are you today?
00:05:43Is somebody talking to me, Pat?
00:05:45Yeah, I think it's Paul trying to butter up to you.
00:05:48What brings you out here to ringside tonight?
00:05:50Well, you know, I'm just here to cheer on my man, the greatest wrestler of all time, Booker T.
00:05:56And the former, former United States Champion.
00:05:58Don't start with me, Michael.
00:05:59He shouldn't have even had to defend his title.
00:06:02My husband was injured.
00:06:04Teddy Long has it out for him.
00:06:05My husband should not have had to wrestle at No Way Out.
00:06:08You supply such motivation for your man.
00:06:10I'm so impressed with that.
00:06:11Cole, you should take heed to that.
00:06:13Tell your wife about it, too.
00:06:14I mean, it's unbelievable the relationship you guys have.
00:06:16It's great.
00:06:16No, Sharmel, I cannot believe that you would complain about the way the general manager,
00:06:20Theodore Long, has been running things around here on SmackDown.
00:06:23He's been nothing but a tremendous general manager.
00:06:25The world heavyweight team.
00:06:26Are you kidding me?
00:06:27Randy Orton had it right last week.
00:06:29Theodore Long is the worst general manager ever.
00:06:32What are you talking about?
00:06:33He made Undertaker versus Kurt Angle the rematch tonight.
00:06:36He put Rey Mysterio in the WrestleMania main event where he should be.
00:06:39But what about Booker T?
00:06:40He forced him to have a substitute when he wrestled Chris Benoit.
00:06:44Book now getting to the ropes because the Tonko damn near trying to rip his arm off there.
00:06:48Come on, baby!
00:06:50So, the Tonka from the Lumbee Tribe, 40,000 strong.
00:06:53Pembroke, North Carolina.
00:06:55Like a big upset here tonight over Booker T to kick things off on Friday Night SmackDown.
00:07:00Okay, you know what?
00:07:01My husband is going to win this match.
00:07:03I'm going to ignore you, Michael Cole.
00:07:04Well, yeah, that's what most people do, Sharmel.
00:07:06They listen to me.
00:07:07I'm the elite Coloradalist.
00:07:09Okay.
00:07:09And now you see Booker T shooting off the top.
00:07:11Oh, baby!
00:07:13The Tonka knocking Booker T down.
00:07:15You got to be careful!
00:07:16You better be careful there.
00:07:17Nice arm drag by the Tonka as well.
00:07:19So, it must have been a rough week in your house.
00:07:21I mean, two formers.
00:07:22Former Miss Black America, former United States Champion.
00:07:24Oh, you didn't just say that.
00:07:25And, of course, the problems with Boogeyman and the Worms as of late.
00:07:27What do you mean a rough week?
00:07:29It's been a rough week for you guys.
00:07:31As I said, I'm ignoring you.
00:07:33Come on, baby!
00:07:34Let's go, Booker!
00:07:35A hell of a chop by Booker T.
00:07:36The Tonka.
00:07:37Watch out!
00:07:38See, that's what I'm talking about.
00:07:39Rough week that, Michael.
00:07:41Oh!
00:07:41I want to trade chops with the Tonka.
00:07:43You got to be careful here.
00:07:44And the Tonka taking it to Booker T.
00:07:46And there's a thumb to the eye.
00:07:48Typical Booker T actions here on Friday Night SmackDown.
00:07:52Big high elbow by the former United States Champion.
00:07:56Booker T quickly into the cover.
00:07:58Shoulders down.
00:07:58Hooks the leg.
00:07:59Kick out by the Tonka.
00:08:00So, Sean Miller, I will ask you this, being that the play-by-play guy didn't.
00:08:03How is the groin of Booker T?
00:08:06How is his groin?
00:08:06You know, he's still injured, and it's not fair that he's out here right now.
00:08:10Like I said, Theodore Long has it in for my husband.
00:08:13He should not be wrestling right now, but like I said, he's the greatest of all time, so we have
00:08:17no worries.
00:08:18He's going to come out of this victorious.
00:08:19Well, the groin looked pretty good there.
00:08:22Tonka ducked underneath that heel kick.
00:08:24Pretty flexible there, Booker T.
00:08:26I guess he must have stretched it a lot before he came out here tonight.
00:08:29Why are you so concerned with my husband's groin, Michael?
00:08:32That's a great point.
00:08:33What's going on?
00:08:33She's got a hell of a point.
00:08:35Let me tell me what's really going on.
00:08:36Taz asked the question.
00:08:38He's a married man, for God's sakes.
00:08:39You asked the question.
00:08:40Why do I get in trouble for it?
00:08:41Watch out, Tonka.
00:08:42I'm in control.
00:08:43And look at the suplex fight, Tonka.
00:08:45And Booker T's in trouble.
00:08:46Into the cover.
00:08:47Hook of the leg.
00:08:48Booker T kicks out at two.
00:08:51This would be a huge upset for Tonka,
00:08:53who began the comeback trail at the Royal Rumble matchup last month.
00:08:59Tonka bounced off the top turnbuckle by the former United States champion.
00:09:03Yeah.
00:09:03That's the thing with Booker T.
00:09:04Yeah.
00:09:05He'll turn the tables on you.
00:09:06But you know, Sean, you know, if Tonka's a veteran,
00:09:09you've got to be careful.
00:09:10Out of nowhere, catch Booker's up.
00:09:12Well, I understand that.
00:09:13But like I said, Theodore Long should be fired.
00:09:16Booker should not even be in this match tonight because he's still injured.
00:09:19Well, I think that's getting a little drastic,
00:09:21that the general manager should be fired.
00:09:22I mean, look at him.
00:09:23He hired the Boogeyman.
00:09:25Okay.
00:09:25Now, see, these kids out here need a role model.
00:09:27What kind of role model is the Boogeyman?
00:09:29They need to idolize somebody like Boogeyman.
00:09:31You know what?
00:09:32Matter of fact, get the congressman on the phone.
00:09:34We need a monument.
00:09:35We're in D.C. right now.
00:09:36They need to erect a monument of Booker T.
00:09:38He is such a great man.
00:09:40That's right.
00:09:40Get somebody on the phone, Michael.
00:09:41Make yourself useful.
00:09:42Yeah, I will.
00:09:43Booker's a great role model for the kids.
00:09:44Here's how to treat yourself to victory.
00:09:47Oh, he's Tonka hung up on the top guard.
00:09:49Yeah, baby.
00:09:50A hot shot move right across the throat of the Tonka.
00:09:53Here you go, kids.
00:09:54Forget about honesty.
00:09:56It's Tino's way to win.
00:09:56Come on, baby.
00:10:01We've got to take another look at how Booker T took control.
00:10:04Watched the Tonka off the top rope here.
00:10:09Booker T stalking the Tonka.
00:10:11Just waiting to pick the spot.
00:10:12The Tonka's going to keep his eyes open here.
00:10:14Booker T right off the jaw.
00:10:16What a kick by Booker T to the jaw of the Tonka.
00:10:21Here we go.
00:10:22Watch out.
00:10:22Watch out the leg.
00:10:23He's going to kick out at two by the Tonka.
00:10:26Hey, you've got to give the Tonka credit there.
00:10:27Kick it out of that crescent kick by Booker T.
00:10:30Very impressive by the Tonka.
00:10:31Yeah, but I don't think it can happen again.
00:10:32Well, Booker T's got to do the kick again,
00:10:34but you might be right.
00:10:35Then again, you might be wrong.
00:10:36We don't know.
00:10:36I'm surprised you haven't ran up there
00:10:38and tried to help your husband out yet.
00:10:39I'm not turning on.
00:10:39It's all good.
00:10:41Nobody likes you.
00:10:42No, why?
00:10:42What's wrong with that?
00:10:44Because you always run in your mouth
00:10:45about something you don't know anything about.
00:10:47I know.
00:10:48Wrestling.
00:10:49Come on, baby.
00:10:51Well, now Booker T in control
00:10:53with his rear naked choke
00:10:54or rear chin lock on to Tonka.
00:10:58Booker is in control.
00:10:59Let's go, baby.
00:10:59Well, he might be trying to get a little...
00:11:01Come on.
00:11:01Get a little R&R in that groin area.
00:11:03Maybe his groin's inflaming.
00:11:04I don't know.
00:11:05Come on.
00:11:06But what are you laughing at?
00:11:06I'm serious.
00:11:07I'm just trying to...
00:11:10Now, Mike made a comment.
00:11:12No, I'm just saying.
00:11:13No, baby.
00:11:14Keep him down.
00:11:17He's back down fast.
00:11:18Trying to will to Tonka
00:11:19back into this matchup.
00:11:21To Tonka, you know,
00:11:21he's been in this position before.
00:11:22Come on, baby.
00:11:24So I'm out rooting on Bookman.
00:11:25Uh-oh.
00:11:25Here comes to Tonka.
00:11:26Big elbows to the gut by to Tonka.
00:11:28Booker T with a clubbing blow.
00:11:29It's back in half.
00:11:30Yeah, baby.
00:11:31And there's a chop.
00:11:32Chop him up.
00:11:33Tonka felt that.
00:11:35Went across the ring.
00:11:36Missed with a big kick.
00:11:38Watch out.
00:11:38Tonka shot.
00:11:40As you hear that.
00:11:41How could you not?
00:11:42And Tonka starting to build a bit of momentum.
00:11:46Booker T whipped off the rope.
00:11:47Tonka with a big right hand.
00:11:49And of course, the head heads up.
00:11:51Big clothesline as well.
00:11:52And Charmell showing the look of concern in her face.
00:11:55Her man's in all kinds of trouble.
00:11:56Tonka's built up a ton of momentum.
00:11:58Booker's in trouble.
00:11:59Oh, my God.
00:12:01Come on, baby.
00:12:02Oh, fucker T missed with the right hand.
00:12:04Back suplex.
00:12:05Oh.
00:12:06Nice back suplex.
00:12:07How good is Tonka look as he's come back?
00:12:09Yeah.
00:12:10Tell you what.
00:12:11He's been on fire.
00:12:12Tonka's looking awesome out here.
00:12:13Oh, come on.
00:12:13And he's on the warpath now.
00:12:15No doubt.
00:12:15No doubt.
00:12:16Oh, and a big tomahawk chop to the head.
00:12:19Charmell, Book's in trouble.
00:12:21I'm telling you, he's in trouble here.
00:12:22Where's Tonka going?
00:12:23Top rope.
00:12:24I got faith on my man.
00:12:25He'll fight back.
00:12:26Baby, watch out.
00:12:27Tonka up to the top rope.
00:12:28Baby, watch out.
00:12:30Here's Tonka.
00:12:31Oh, fucker T.
00:12:33How you like that, Michael?
00:12:36How you like that?
00:12:37Booker T with a big kick to the jaw.
00:12:40Tonka may be out.
00:12:41One time now, baby.
00:12:42That's right.
00:12:42Tonka, Tonka's in trouble.
00:12:44Kick to the midsection.
00:12:45Oh, here we go.
00:12:45Here we go.
00:12:45Booker off the ropes.
00:12:46He's out there.
00:12:47Kick to the back of the head.
00:12:49This one's over.
00:12:50Booker T is going to celebrate.
00:12:52Oh, that's what he's saying.
00:12:53It's a skin-a-roni.
00:12:55Oh, my God.
00:12:55Wait a minute.
00:12:56What the hell?
00:12:56Wait a minute.
00:12:57What's that?
00:12:59Oh, my God.
00:12:59Look at it.
00:13:00No.
00:13:00Okay, not again.
00:13:01Oh, my God.
00:13:01No.
00:13:02What the hell?
00:13:03Not again.
00:13:04Where is he?
00:13:05Uh-huh.
00:13:06How can you see him in all the time?
00:13:08The boogie man with-
00:13:09No.
00:13:10I shall not calm down.
00:13:11It's okay.
00:13:12It's just coming.
00:13:13Relax.
00:13:13Baby.
00:13:15Baby.
00:13:16Okay.
00:13:17All right.
00:13:17Wait a minute.
00:13:17Wait.
00:13:18Come on.
00:13:19Oh, my God.
00:13:22Oh, my God.
00:13:25Oh, my God.
00:13:26Oh, my Lord.
00:13:26He's right behind us.
00:13:27I've seen it.
00:13:27Get her out of here.
00:13:28What the hell is it?
00:13:29Look at this.
00:13:30Tatanka.
00:13:30Tatanka just picked up the win.
00:13:32Here we go, winner.
00:13:33Time.
00:13:34What's up, guys?
00:13:35Tatanka just-
00:13:35The boogie man's distraction picked up the win for Tatanka.
00:13:39All right.
00:13:39Now the table's on fire with some-
00:13:41The boogie man's smoke is written.
00:13:43Boogie man in the ring and Booker T.
00:13:46What is this?
00:13:47What the hell is going on?
00:13:49And now the boogie man is-
00:13:52What's it nuts?
00:13:54Booker T and Joe Manley have nothing to do with the boogie man.
00:13:59Neither do I.
00:14:00Oh, my Lord.
00:14:01I can't-
00:14:01The table's smoking.
00:14:03The boogie man is up.
00:14:05Oh, he's chopping off words.
00:14:07What the hell are you doing here?
00:14:09Oh, no.
00:14:09Oh, my Lord.
00:14:10Oh, my God.
00:14:15Let's take a look at Sean Bell's reaction.
00:14:17Look at boogie man from behind.
00:14:18Look at T says, look out, honey.
00:14:20And then boogie man, he's like-
00:14:22Oh, my God.
00:14:23You freak that?
00:14:24If boogie man is folding at the mouth or something.
00:14:27And then I know that Tatanka capitalized on this.
00:14:30And look at the cheek.
00:14:31Tatanka gets the win.
00:14:32I can't even breathe.
00:14:33And look at-
00:14:34Oh, my Lord.
00:14:35Stop with the worms.
00:14:36But no.
00:14:37Disgusting.
00:14:43Well, ladies and gentlemen, tonight on SmackDown,
00:14:46after No Way Out, where Finley caught Lashley his undefeated record
00:14:49by hitting him in the throat with a shillelagh.
00:14:51The tough Irishman may get what he has coming.
00:14:55Lashley gets his hands on Finley tonight.
00:15:18And tonight's main event has WrestleMania implications.
00:15:21It's the biggest main event in SmackDown history.
00:15:24Kurt Angle versus The Undertaker for the World Emmyweight Championship.
00:15:27A birth to the WrestleMania main event is on the line.
00:15:30There you see the tail of the tape, two of the most decorated athletes
00:15:33in the history of the WWE.
00:15:35Two future Hall of Famers, in my opinion.
00:15:38Cole, the match at No Way Out was one for the ages.
00:15:41Tonight, I'll tell you what, the biggest rematch in SmackDown history.
00:15:47And there you see, ladies and gentlemen,
00:15:49you can tell by the star of the knee pad,
00:15:51he is the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:15:53Kurt Angle, the greatest pure athlete in WWE history.
00:15:57And you have to wonder what is going through Kurt Angle's mind
00:16:00as we get ready for the main event here tonight at the MCI Center.
00:16:04What I would think, let me interrupt you,
00:16:05is I think Kurt Angle right now is prepping himself.
00:16:07He's trying to think of the mistakes,
00:16:09the little bit of mistakes that he might have made,
00:16:10which I didn't see any.
00:16:11No way out.
00:16:12He probably doesn't want to make those mistakes again.
00:16:14It is a big fight feel here tonight.
00:16:15There is so much on the line.
00:16:17The World Emmyweight Championship,
00:16:18and the winner will be in the main event,
00:16:20defending the title at WrestleMania.
00:16:22And as we now know, is a triple threat match.
00:16:25The champion against the legend killer Randy Orton
00:16:27and Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania.
00:16:30This is how the triple threat came about.
00:16:34I dedicated my performance in the Royal Rumble
00:16:37to the memory of my good friend, Eddie Guerrero.
00:16:42He did it! He did it!
00:16:43No way!
00:16:44Rey Mysterio is going to WrestleMania!
00:16:49Randy Orton, he got in my head.
00:16:52Eddie ain't in heaven.
00:16:54Eddie's down there in hell!
00:16:57He got me so upset
00:16:58that I put my WrestleMania title opportunity
00:17:01on the line at No Way Out.
00:17:04And I lost.
00:17:05I am going to the main event of WrestleMania!
00:17:11It's no one's fault but my own.
00:17:14I've let everyone down.
00:17:15I apologize to Vickie Guerrero,
00:17:19to Chavo Guerrero,
00:17:21and most importantly,
00:17:23to you,
00:17:25Eddie Guerrero.
00:17:29Well, Rey, what happened to you Sunday
00:17:33was wrong.
00:17:35I've reviewed the tapes
00:17:36and as far as me reversing the decision,
00:17:40my hands are tied.
00:17:41At WrestleMania,
00:17:43Randy Orton will be the main event.
00:17:46I can't change that, Rey,
00:17:48but I damn sure can add to the match.
00:17:52At WrestleMania,
00:17:54it will be
00:17:55Randy Orton
00:17:57versus
00:17:58the world champion
00:18:00versus
00:18:03Rey Mysterio!
00:18:05Oh my!
00:18:07Rey Mysterio
00:18:08has a new lease on life!
00:18:11Rey Mysterio
00:18:12is going to be
00:18:13the main event
00:18:13at WrestleMania!
00:18:23And here comes
00:18:24the legend killer
00:18:27who has not been happy
00:18:29as of late.
00:18:37The following contest
00:18:38is Daniel Farr.
00:18:40Once of all,
00:18:40making this way right

00:18:43weighing in at 245 pounds,
00:18:47the legend killer,

00:18:52that's been going right
00:18:53for Randy Orton
00:18:53over the last week
00:18:54is new music,
00:18:56Kill Switch Engage
00:18:57from an upcoming WWE album
00:18:59Reckless Intent
00:19:01because Randy Orton
00:19:02had it stuck to him
00:19:03and rightfully so
00:19:05by general manager
00:19:06Theodore Long last week.
00:19:07For G to defeat Mysterio,
00:19:09Mysterio should be placed
00:19:11for the main event
00:19:12at WrestleMania.
00:19:13Hey, I don't disagree
00:19:14with that one iota.
00:19:16I agree with you, Cole.
00:19:17Ladies and gentlemen,
00:19:18the legend killer, Randy Orton,
00:19:19part of the main event

00:19:39I don't quit
00:19:41and I don't back down

00:19:46At WrestleMania,
00:19:48it will be Randy Orton

00:20:43Super Crazy,
00:20:43he almost won
00:20:44the Cruiserweight Championship
00:20:45before Gregory Hound
00:20:47stole one,
00:20:48and for tonight,
00:20:49Super Crazy
00:20:50with his hands full
00:20:51against Randy Orton.
00:20:53In order,
00:20:53of course,
00:20:54a former world heavyweight champion,
00:20:55another former champion,
00:20:56Batista,
00:20:57going to be in Columbus,
00:20:58Ohio,
00:20:58Sunday at the Arnold Sports Festival.
00:21:00A great event,
00:21:01120,000 fans,
00:21:0315,000 athletes,
00:21:04more than to compete
00:21:05in the Olympics.
00:21:07Batista in Columbus
00:21:08on Sunday.
00:21:13Randy Orton,
00:21:14that cocky,
00:21:15arrogant look
00:21:15on his face,
00:21:16that's what Randy Orton's
00:21:17all about.
00:21:18He will be one-third
00:21:19of the main event
00:21:19at WrestleMania,
00:21:20along with Rey Mysterio,
00:21:22and the winner of tonight's
00:21:23World Heavyweight Championship
00:21:24matchup
00:21:25between The Undertaker
00:21:26and Kurt Angle.
00:21:28And here's Super Crazy,
00:21:29Randy Orton,
00:21:29center of the ring,
00:21:30squaring off with one another.
00:21:31Randy Orton with a
00:21:32thumb of the eye,
00:21:32pulls it up
00:21:33with a drop kick.
00:21:35Beautiful drop kick,
00:21:36I gotta tell you right there,
00:21:37the extension in the middle,
00:21:38the middle of Randy Orton's body.
00:21:40I mean, God,
00:21:41Super Crazy was so far away
00:21:43from him,
00:21:43and Orton was able
00:21:44to spread his cross
00:21:45and have a viciousness here.
00:21:48Randy Orton,
00:21:48as we mentioned earlier,
00:21:49Randy Orton has not been
00:21:50in a good mood
00:21:51over the past week.
00:21:52He was so upset
00:21:53with General Manager
00:21:54Theodore Long last week,
00:21:55and he seems to be
00:21:56taking it out
00:21:57on Super Crazy here tonight.
00:21:59That's an illegal maneuver.
00:22:00Cannot apply a hold
00:22:01to a man
00:22:02while he's locked up
00:22:03in the ropes.
00:22:04Got a five-count
00:22:06off the snap,
00:22:07their takedown,
00:22:07Randy Orton
00:22:08who lures the knee
00:22:09straight into the sternum
00:22:10of Super Crazy.
00:22:11Here's the cover,
00:22:11forearm and the face
00:22:12kick out at two.
00:22:14Again, I have to applaud
00:22:16General Manager Theodore Long
00:22:17for his actions
00:22:18last week's cast.
00:22:19Rey Mysterio deserves
00:22:20to be a part of that
00:22:21main event at Wrestlemania.
00:22:22Randy Orton cheated
00:22:23his way to victory
00:22:24over Mysterio
00:22:25at No Way Out.
00:22:26He did,
00:22:26and I want to point
00:22:26something out myself.
00:22:27Jabba Guerrero attacking
00:22:28Randy Orton last week
00:22:29out of nowhere.
00:22:30We were shocked.
00:22:31I mean,
00:22:31the respect for the Guerrero name,
00:22:33I was so happy to see
00:22:35Chabba come out
00:22:35and get a few licks
00:22:36on Randy Orton.
00:22:37Randy Orton really
00:22:39just hammering away
00:22:40on Super Crazy
00:22:41into the cover again
00:22:43at two.
00:22:44Super Crazy
00:22:44gets the shoulder up.
00:22:47Bobby, you know,
00:22:47obviously Randy Orton,
00:22:48as you point out,
00:22:49was so upset,
00:22:50so angry,
00:22:51so livid
00:22:52at our General Manager
00:22:53Teddy Long.
00:22:54And, you know,
00:22:54I understand why Orton
00:22:55was mad,
00:22:56because it wasn't
00:22:56what he thought
00:22:56it was going to be.
00:22:57And, you know,
00:22:58hey,
00:22:59if our General Manager
00:22:59throws a monkey wrench
00:23:00in the game plan,
00:23:01that's just the way
00:23:02the cookie crumbles.
00:23:03Hey, listen,
00:23:03the bottom line is this,
00:23:04Randy Orton should be happy
00:23:05he's in the main event
00:23:05at WrestleMania,
00:23:06period.
00:23:07Whether it's a triple threat
00:23:08or not,
00:23:08Randy Orton has the
00:23:09opportunity to win
00:23:10the World Heavyweight
00:23:11Championship
00:23:11at WrestleMania.
00:23:13Oh!
00:23:14Randy Orton delivers
00:23:14the legs lock.
00:23:15Here's the hook
00:23:16of the leg,
00:23:16and again,
00:23:17a kick out.
00:23:18Remember,
00:23:18Randy Orton's been
00:23:19out here bragging
00:23:20and passed
00:23:20about how great he is.
00:23:21Okay,
00:23:21get it done now
00:23:22against two men
00:23:23at WrestleMania.
00:23:24That remains to be seen.
00:23:26But right now,
00:23:27this real choke
00:23:28by Orton
00:23:28on Super Crazy.
00:23:30Crazy's in a lot
00:23:30of trouble here.
00:23:31A ton of trouble
00:23:32and nowhere to go,
00:23:33but finally makes it
00:23:34to the bottom rope.
00:23:35Referee Chris Gaye
00:23:36trying to force the break,
00:23:37but Orton drags Crazy
00:23:38back to the center
00:23:39of the ring.
00:23:41Get a nice little
00:23:42Super Crazy chant
00:23:43here at the
00:23:43Ancient's Capitol.
00:23:46SmackDown fans
00:23:47are a buzz here tonight.
00:23:49It's a big feel right now,
00:23:51big feel here tonight,
00:23:52big fight feel.
00:23:52And now look at Hiccup's
00:23:54Crazy.
00:23:54Look at this.
00:23:55Big right hands,
00:23:56Randy Orton's in trouble.
00:23:57Misses with the right hand,
00:23:58Super Crazy takes
00:23:58him out of the knee.
00:24:00Beautiful.
00:24:01Oh my God.
00:24:02Super Crazy could pull up
00:24:03an upset in this matchup
00:24:04here tonight.
00:24:04What would it do
00:24:05for Crazy's career
00:24:06here on SmackDown?
00:24:08Super Crazy might up
00:24:09do that up,
00:24:10up,
00:24:10let's try to get
00:24:11Super Crazy might up,
00:24:13what do you call it,
00:24:14the one deal
00:24:14like maybe a Caddy
00:24:15Escalade or something.
00:24:16Up,
00:24:16up,
00:24:17up,
00:24:18upgrade.
00:24:18Upgrade.
00:24:19First day with your new tongue.
00:24:21Up close.
00:24:21And look at Super Crazy.
00:24:23Wow,
00:24:23a springboard dropkick.
00:24:25Orton knocked off the apron
00:24:26and the legend killer
00:24:28in all times of trouble.
00:24:29And perhaps Super Crazy
00:24:31could become a legend killer
00:24:33here tonight.
00:24:34Watch this.
00:24:35That springboard dropkick,
00:24:37Orton's skull
00:24:38bouncing off the barricade.
00:24:40And Dudley,
00:24:40Super Crazy,
00:24:41look out,
00:24:42he's all over the top rope,
00:24:43taking out Randy Orton.
00:24:44And Super Crazy
00:24:46could be on the verge
00:24:47of a major upset here.
00:24:51Orton back into the ring.
00:24:53Here's Super Crazy
00:24:53quickly into the cover,
00:24:54hooks to Lake,
00:24:55shoulders down.
00:24:56He's got him at two and a half
00:24:57and a kick out.
00:24:58But Crazy is taking it
00:24:59to Orton, Taz.
00:25:01That's what I'm saying.
00:25:02You know,
00:25:03Super Crazy,
00:25:04this guy can go.
00:25:05And Orton now's in trouble.
00:25:07Oh,
00:25:08that's it.
00:25:08If Orton loses his catch.
00:25:11Oh,
00:25:11big elbow to the jaw.
00:25:13Super Crazy up for the second rope.
00:25:14Randy Orton in trouble.
00:25:17Super Crazy got caught.
00:25:18It goes.
00:25:20Wow,
00:25:21Super Crazy
00:25:23catching Randy Orton.
00:25:24That was sweet.
00:25:25Now look at Super Crazy.
00:25:27He's ready to go
00:25:27for some sort of a
00:25:28move.
00:25:28Oh,
00:25:29right for the move.
00:25:29Go.
00:25:30Randy Orton just rolled
00:25:31out of the way.
00:25:32Super Crazy missed
00:25:34and Orton's by an inch
00:25:35as the Legend Killer
00:25:36rolled out of the way.
00:25:37Both men down
00:25:38center of the ring.
00:25:39Randy Orton finds himself
00:25:41in a fight tonight.
00:25:42So let's take a look
00:25:43at this top rope
00:25:45movesault.
00:25:45Look at that.
00:25:46How close did Randy Orton
00:25:47come from getting
00:25:48beaten this matchup?
00:25:49If Crazy would have
00:25:50nailed that movesault
00:25:52and Orton had the
00:25:52wherewithal to get
00:25:53out of the way,
00:25:54well,
00:25:55she might have had
00:25:55a nice upset.
00:25:56The Super Crazy
00:25:57out of the way.
00:25:57Randy Orton back
00:25:58on his feet first.
00:25:59Super Crazy
00:25:59across the rope.
00:26:02Super Crazy with the
00:26:03athletic prowlers to pull
00:26:05that off.
00:26:06I'll tell you,
00:26:06Orton is out.
00:26:07Into the cover.
00:26:07Hook to the leg.
00:26:08He may have a huge
00:26:10up to here.
00:26:11And a two and a half.
00:26:12Orton just got the
00:26:13shoulder out.
00:26:14Super Crazy thought he
00:26:15had him.
00:26:15I thought he had him.
00:26:17Oh,
00:26:17that was so close.
00:26:22Super Crazy giving Orton
00:26:24a run for his money.
00:26:25Perhaps Orton is
00:26:26looking past Crazy
00:26:27to WrestleMania,
00:26:28but there we go.
00:26:29Tip of the Lord.
00:26:30Thumb to the eye.
00:26:31Yeah,
00:26:32not good tactics.
00:26:33I mean,
00:26:33they're effective tactics,
00:26:34but Super Crazy.
00:26:36Uh-oh.
00:26:37Where did he come from?
00:26:38I'm telling you.
00:26:39Where the hell
00:26:39did he come from?
00:26:40Watch out.
00:26:42Orton's in trouble.
00:26:43Super Crazy knows
00:26:44this is a big opportunity
00:26:45here.
00:26:47Oh.
00:26:48Super Crazy
00:26:49knocked off the top rope.
00:26:50Randy Orton.
00:26:51Oh,
00:26:51what a close line.
00:26:52An explosive close line.
00:26:54The end
00:26:55just might
00:26:56be near.
00:26:59What a close line
00:27:00by the Legend Killer
00:27:02Randy Orton.
00:27:04And now,
00:27:05uh-oh,
00:27:05he's going to score.
00:27:06Yeah,
00:27:06you see how Orton
00:27:07is looking right
00:27:07into the eyes
00:27:08of Super Crazy.
00:27:09Here we go.
00:27:09The RKO.
00:27:11The RKO.
00:27:12Hooks the leg.
00:27:13Shoulders down.
00:27:15If Orton
00:27:15hits the RKO
00:27:16in WrestleMania,
00:27:17we will have
00:27:18a new champion.
00:27:20Here's your winner,
00:27:21the Legend Killer,
00:27:23Randy Orton.
00:27:25It may very well be
00:27:26the most effective maneuver
00:27:28in all of sports entertainment.
00:27:30The RKO.
00:27:31It is lethal.
00:27:33It just hits you
00:27:34out of nowhere.
00:27:35Bam!
00:27:36Puts your lights out.
00:27:37Quick!
00:27:38For a one, two, three.
00:27:40Charge your whole
00:27:40spinal cord.
00:27:41Knocks you out
00:27:42for a second.
00:27:43Randy Orton
00:27:45floating
00:27:45in his victory.
00:27:47A month away
00:27:47from WrestleMania,
00:27:48Orton is rolling
00:27:49as we take another look
00:27:50at the aerial tactics
00:27:52of Super Crazy.
00:27:53It's a heel
00:27:54right over the top rope.
00:27:55Super Crazy
00:27:56did a great job
00:27:57out here.
00:27:58Hell of an outing
00:28:00for himself
00:28:01out here.
00:28:01Great effort
00:28:01by Crazy.
00:28:02But check it out.
00:28:06There it is.
00:28:06RKO.
00:28:07Turn out the light, baby.
00:28:09The party's over.
00:28:10What a match, though.
00:28:11Bulls were born,
00:28:12but Orton victorious.
00:28:14Again,
00:28:14if Orton hits the RKO
00:28:16in WrestleMania,
00:28:17forget about it.
00:28:18We will have a new
00:28:19World Heavyweight Champion.
00:28:21But there is so much action
00:28:23still to come tonight.
00:28:24Actually,
00:28:25who's Matt Hardy
00:28:26going to pick Cole
00:28:26as his partner?
00:28:28Matt Hardy,
00:28:28partner of his choosing
00:28:29against Eminem tonight.
00:28:31And there's no way out
00:28:32to talk about
00:28:33and Matt Hardy.
00:28:34I'm going to be
00:28:34Matt Hardy's partner.
00:28:35They beat Eminem.
00:28:36Who's going to beat him then?
00:28:37I cannot wait.
00:28:38I cannot believe
00:28:39that we have another opportunity
00:28:41to call the action
00:28:42of these two future
00:28:44Hall of Famers.
00:28:45It is Kurt Angle
00:28:46versus The Undertaker.
00:28:48The rematch
00:28:49for the World Heavyweight Championship
00:28:51is tonight.
00:28:56Well, I don't believe in luck.
00:28:58I believe in hard work.
00:29:03Once you step into that ring,
00:29:05the only person
00:29:06that you can rely on
00:29:07is yourself.
00:29:10A very special athlete,
00:29:12a hellacious competitor,
00:29:14is Chris Benoit,
00:29:15who trained in
00:29:16Stu Hart's dungeon.
00:29:19The physical toughness
00:29:20of Benoit
00:29:21is unparalleled.
00:29:23Stumble in your mind
00:29:25from the fear
00:29:26from all the inside.
00:29:30But whatever you need,
00:29:32ever you got,
00:29:34ever you want,
00:29:35I'll take back
00:29:36and take whatever
00:29:36you need,
00:29:38ever you got.
00:29:39Step in the heart
00:29:40and the will to win.
00:29:42He's got it!
00:29:43He's locked in!
00:29:44Holy crap!
00:29:44The car space is locked in!
00:29:47Nothing is going to stop
00:29:49the best technical wrestler,
00:29:52a physical specimen,
00:29:54second to none.
00:29:58There is no one
00:29:59hungrier than me!
00:30:04Chris Benoit is an absolute
00:30:06testament that hard work
00:30:08pays off.
00:30:09Well, let's take you back
00:30:09to last week

00:30:11It was Chris Benoit
00:30:12teaming with Lashley
00:30:13in that big tag team matchup
00:30:15against JBL and Finley.
00:30:16Well, Mysterian Orton
00:30:17also involved in that matchup
00:30:19and watch Benoit
00:30:19payback for what JBL
00:30:21tried to do to him
00:30:21a week earlier.
00:30:22That's a little graphic,
00:30:24a little disturbing.
00:30:25Watch, look at the hand
00:30:25get crushed.
00:30:27Crushed between
00:30:28those steel steps.
00:30:29My God,
00:30:30and that steel pulse.
00:30:32Nasty.
00:30:32Well, JBL needed surgery
00:30:34on the injured hand
00:30:35last week
00:30:36and we're going to
00:30:36take you now
00:30:37into the operating room

00:32:21Yo!
00:32:22Hey!
00:32:24Oh, the lovely Molina
00:32:27leading her Tag Team Champions
00:32:29of Mercury and Nitro
00:32:30into action here tonight.
00:32:32This is another open challenge.
00:32:34Remember,
00:32:34Molina said,
00:32:35hey,
00:32:35we'll take on any Tag Team
00:32:36at any time
00:32:37in a non-title matchup.
00:32:40Your opponent tonight,
00:32:42Matt Hardy.
00:32:42But who will Matt Hardy
00:32:44pick to be his partner
00:32:45when he squares off
00:32:46with Eminem
00:32:47next?
00:32:53Back on SmackDown
00:32:54from our nation's capital.
00:32:56Eminem set for an open challenge.
00:32:57Here come one
00:32:59of their opponents.
00:33:02Oh, yeah!
00:33:08Making it to the ring
00:33:10from Cameron, North Carolina,
00:33:12weighing in at 230 pounds.
00:33:16Matt Hardy.
00:33:18Well,
00:33:18Matt Hardy continues
00:33:19to be a thorn
00:33:20of Eminem's side
00:33:21by selecting Tag Team
00:33:22partners each and every week.
00:33:24The question is,
00:33:25who did Matt Hardy
00:33:26pick this week
00:33:27to battle on the air?
00:33:29Well, not for nothing,
00:33:30I'm still a little perplexed
00:33:32why Matt Hardy
00:33:33did not just go
00:33:34join forces
00:33:35with the lovely Molina
00:33:36a few weeks back.
00:33:37Molina offered
00:33:38a great opportunity
00:33:39to Hardy
00:33:40and Hardy's like,
00:33:40nah, I'd rather, you know,
00:33:42fight the power
00:33:42than join the power.
00:33:44You like that?
00:33:45Fight the power,
00:33:45run the power?
00:33:46I like that a lot.
00:33:46You got a cool sound, right?
00:33:48Like that.
00:33:49Scratch your back
00:33:49and you scratch mine.
00:33:50Well, who's he gonna pick?
00:33:51Who's Hardy picking?
00:33:52Who did he pick,
00:33:53I should say?
00:34:01Oh, my!
00:34:02There is the legendary animal
00:34:05from the Legion of Doomface,
00:34:07Matt Hardy's
00:34:08tag team partner tonight!
00:34:10And it's going to be
00:34:11here as it's
00:34:12you!
00:34:18Well, here's a man
00:34:20who knows something
00:34:21about tag team
00:34:22championship wrestling.
00:34:24Oh, hey,
00:34:24no doubt about that,
00:34:25no doubt about it,
00:34:26even though
00:34:27the tag team champions,
00:34:28Eminem,
00:34:29will just
00:34:29try to get that
00:34:30out of the ring.
00:34:30They are tag team specialists,
00:34:33but right now,
00:34:34you've got
00:34:34Matt Hardy
00:34:35who's held several
00:34:36tag team titles
00:34:37in his career
00:34:38along with
00:34:40Animal.
00:34:40Don't worry,
00:34:41Animal,
00:34:41come on!
00:34:42Talk about tag teams,
00:34:43Animals,
00:34:43the man,
00:34:44in the late great hall.
00:34:46Well, both of these men
00:34:47in the ring now
00:34:48as part of one team
00:34:49know something
00:34:50about beating Eminem.
00:34:52Back at No Way Out,
00:34:53Matt Hardy and Tataka
00:34:54knocked off Eminem
00:34:55in a non-title matchup.
00:34:56This past summer,
00:34:57as part of Legion of Doom,
00:34:59Animal
00:35:00knocked off Eminem
00:35:01to win
00:35:02the WWE
00:35:03tag team titles.
00:35:05So, basically,
00:35:06what you're trying
00:35:06to say here
00:35:07is that Animal
00:35:08and Hardy
00:35:09know Eminem pretty good.
00:35:11Well, that they do,
00:35:12and they're great champions
00:35:13as well.
00:35:13Matt Hardy,
00:35:14a six-time
00:35:15tag team champion.
00:35:16Animal
00:35:16has held titles
00:35:17more times
00:35:18than you can count.
00:35:19So, in this non-title matchup,
00:35:21Matt Hardy locks up
00:35:21with Joey Mercury.
00:35:22Goes for a quick one here
00:35:24and a kick at it, too.
00:35:27I like when I see that.
00:35:28I like when somebody
00:35:29at Jump Street,
00:35:30right in the beginning
00:35:30of the match,
00:35:31goes for a quick pin cover.
00:35:33A lot of times,
00:35:33you might get to Duke
00:35:34like that.
00:35:35And that's good thinking
00:35:36by Matt Hardy.
00:35:36Joey Mercury
00:35:37delivered a forearm,
00:35:38went for the hip toss.
00:35:39Matt Hardy blocked it.
00:35:40And look at this.
00:35:41Uh-oh, uh-oh.
00:35:42Going for a backslide
00:35:43and he gets it.
00:35:43He may have Mercury here.
00:35:45Kick out at two
00:35:45by Joey Mercury.
00:35:47Let's talk strategy, Taz,
00:35:48in this tag team matchup.
00:35:49First off,
00:35:50for the challengers,
00:35:50Matt Hardy and Animal.
00:35:52Well, if I'm Matt Hardy
00:35:53and Animal,
00:35:53I obviously want to utilize
00:35:55the speed
00:35:55and the high flying maneuvers
00:35:57by Hardy
00:35:58and the power
00:35:59of his partner Animal.
00:36:00But I think you want
00:36:01to kind of reverse
00:36:02the roles here
00:36:02and try and single out
00:36:04either Mercury
00:36:05or Nitro.
00:36:06And, you know,
00:36:07treat him like a sacrificial lamb
00:36:08if you can.
00:36:09Because the tag team
00:36:10specialist, Eminem,
00:36:11they do that
00:36:12more than most
00:36:13of their opponents.
00:36:13Nobody home for Mercury.
00:36:14Here's Matt Hardy.
00:36:15Look at this.
00:36:16Tech knife cover
00:36:17may have a kick out at two.
00:36:18So if you're Eminem,
00:36:19how do you combat
00:36:20Matt Hardy and Animal?
00:36:21Well, you know,
00:36:22I would try
00:36:23and keep Hardy in there.
00:36:24He's a little bit,
00:36:25you know,
00:36:26giving up a little bit
00:36:26less weight than,
00:36:27you know,
00:36:28Animal's bigger
00:36:29and stronger man.
00:36:30I would try
00:36:31and keep Hardy in there.
00:36:32A little knock on Hardy,
00:36:33but it's a good way
00:36:34to wear down Matt Hardy.
00:36:35I mean, you know,
00:36:35just doing what
00:36:36they're doing right now.
00:36:37Did that even answer
00:36:38your question?
00:36:38Yeah, sort of.
00:36:39Eminem,
00:36:40the double team
00:36:41on Matt Hardy.
00:36:42You ask me these questions
00:36:43like I have the answers.
00:36:44What do you think
00:36:44I have the answers for?
00:36:46Look at this.
00:36:47Tag team specialist.
00:36:47There's Nitro
00:36:48delivering that unique
00:36:49late drop.
00:36:51Yeah!
00:36:52That little primal scream.
00:36:53I love that.
00:36:54Oh, my God.
00:36:55Yeah!
00:36:56Look at that.
00:36:57That's nice.
00:36:58Whoa, heads up.
00:36:59Oh, look out.
00:37:00Nitro's in trouble.
00:37:01Matt Hardy.
00:37:02Watching Nitro
00:37:03off the top turnbuckle.
00:37:05Nitro's in trouble.
00:37:06Look at Hardy.
00:37:06And Bill Hardy
00:37:07in a clothesline
00:37:08taking Nitro out.
00:37:09A lot of speed
00:37:10and momentum
00:37:11built up quickly
00:37:12using those ropes
00:37:13by Matt Hardy.
00:37:14Nitro walks into the corner.
00:37:15Matt Hardy makes the tag
00:37:16and here comes
00:37:17the legendary animal.
00:37:18And listen to the
00:37:19show of respect.
00:37:20Watch out.
00:37:21Oh, man!
00:37:22And Nitro,
00:37:23did you see how
00:37:24he got caught up
00:37:24in the top rope?
00:37:25Looks like one of those
00:37:26ooh, ooh!
00:37:27Those things you see
00:37:28like in those
00:37:28little silver things
00:37:29that wheel rolls around.
00:37:31Let's see
00:37:32that move again.
00:37:32What the hell
00:37:33did they do that up there?
00:37:34Rake of the eyes
00:37:35by Nitro.
00:37:36Look at this.
00:37:36Look at that.
00:37:37Caught up on the top rope
00:37:39face first.
00:37:40Spun him around
00:37:40like a little hamster
00:37:41in one of those hamster wheels.
00:37:43Finally got it right
00:37:44after 30 seconds.
00:37:45You know about that.
00:37:45And Nitro caught up
00:37:46on the top rope
00:37:47by Animal.
00:37:53Well,
00:37:55Nitro landed
00:37:55where you don't want
00:37:56to land, Cole.
00:37:57You wouldn't understand
00:37:57what that's like
00:37:58but that hurts.
00:37:59And Animal
00:38:00quickly out of the ring.
00:38:01Here's the veteran Animal.
00:38:02Realize that he has Nitro
00:38:04in trouble.
00:38:05Not going to waste
00:38:06any time left
00:38:06to continue the attack.
00:38:08I like the open
00:38:09channel stick.
00:38:10I like this.
00:38:11The open challenge
00:38:12but I'll tell you,
00:38:12I'm still,
00:38:13I don't understand why.
00:38:14Watch out!
00:38:14And look at this.
00:38:15Caught in midair
00:38:16is Mercury
00:38:16and Animal

00:38:22Molina on the back
00:38:23of Animal.
00:38:25Oh!
00:38:26And the distraction
00:38:27caused the animal
00:38:28to walk into that
00:38:29kick by Nitro.
00:38:30Very small by Molina.
00:38:31What a brilliant
00:38:32young lady she is.
00:38:33Brilliant.
00:38:34Brilliant.
00:38:34Brilliant.
00:38:35She cheated.
00:38:37So wide.
00:38:38Let's see the kick.
00:38:39Watch this.
00:38:39Molina
00:38:40shoving Animal

00:38:46off the apron.
00:38:49And Molina
00:38:50with a kick.
00:38:51What is wrong with her?
00:38:52Nothing.
00:38:53Nothing at all.
00:38:54Actually,
00:38:54I don't think
00:38:54there's anything wrong
00:38:55with her.
00:38:55Mercury sending Animal
00:38:56back into the ring.
00:38:57She's helping
00:38:58up boys out.
00:38:59Here we go.
00:38:59Throw into the cover.
00:39:00Hook to the leg.
00:39:01Throw down.
00:39:01Kick out at two.
00:39:03This is where
00:39:04Eminem are so dangerous.
00:39:06Frequent double teams,
00:39:07frequent tags,
00:39:08Molina getting involved.
00:39:09Well,
00:39:09I pointed out

00:39:14specialists.
00:39:14They hit and move.
00:39:15Here's the cover
00:39:16by Mercury.
00:39:17Kick out at two.
00:39:17That's what makes

00:39:20so impressive
00:39:21and so successful
00:39:22it makes them

00:39:23They hit and move
00:39:25and they got
00:39:25great motivation
00:39:26by Molina.
00:39:27Come on,

00:40:30caught by Animal.
00:40:32Animal with the power slam
00:40:34but did not have enough
00:40:35to get him to recover there.
00:40:38Tell you what,
00:40:38Nitro is hurting
00:40:39and Matt Hardy
00:40:40knows this is
00:40:40a great opportunity
00:40:42for Animal to try
00:40:43and can't get Matt.
00:40:44Can he do it?
00:40:44Can he do it?
00:40:45Animal looks to make
00:40:45a tag and he does.
00:40:46And here comes Matt Hardy.
00:40:47Mercury in the right hand.
00:40:48Got Hardy with the love of his own.

00:42:29hard as me, Cole.
00:42:30Animal in all kinds
00:42:31of trouble.
00:42:32Matt Hardy doesn't

00:43:05but it's Nitro!
00:43:06who saved his partner!
00:43:08That's what it was.
00:43:09It wasn't that
00:43:09Animal's not accustomed
00:43:10to it.
00:43:11It was more or less
00:43:11that that M&M
00:43:12as the tag team
00:43:14specialist they are.
00:43:14They double teamed up
00:43:15on Hardy.
00:43:17The animal ran the part
00:43:18there.
00:43:19The M&M happy as a pig

00:49:48Approaching the ring
00:49:49from Belfast, Ireland.
00:49:51Weighing at a 233 pounds.
00:49:55Finley.
00:49:56Well, Finley will be known,
00:49:57Tad,
00:49:58as the man who crossed Lashley
00:50:00his undefeated record.
00:50:01And no way out nearly two weeks ago
00:50:03it was Lashley versus JBL.
00:50:05But Finley,
00:50:06with that shillelagh you see in his hand,
00:50:08struck Lashley in the throat with it,
00:50:10costing Lashley the matchup.
00:50:12Well, absolutely.
00:50:13And hence,
00:50:14why there's some bad blood.
00:50:15That's the shillelagh right there
00:50:16you're looking at, folks.
00:50:18I think it's just like a big chunk of wood
00:50:20that's calmed down.
00:50:20I asked Finley early
00:50:22if I could see the thing.
00:50:23He's like,
00:50:23no!
00:50:24I just walked away.
00:50:25Oh, my!
00:50:30Oh, you look Lashley.
00:50:39And from Colorado Springs, Colorado,
00:50:42weighing in at 273 pounds,
00:50:46Bobby Lashley!
00:50:47Two of SmackDown Tardis hitting Superstars
00:50:50set to go one-on-one here tonight.
00:50:51And this matchup will not be for the faint of heart.
00:50:54No, sir.
00:50:55And you were noticing a moment ago
00:50:56the referee telling Finley
00:50:58get that shillelagh out of the ring,
00:51:00get that,
00:51:00it's a weapon more or less.
00:51:01That's what it is.
00:51:02Here we go, Cole.
00:51:03Look at the eyes on Lashley.
00:51:07This is going to be...
00:51:08This is going to be physical.
00:51:09I'm telling you right now,
00:51:10this will be physical.
00:51:12Well, Lashley,
00:51:12a former All-American,
00:51:13former national champion.
00:51:15Finley is just one tough Irish bastard,
00:51:17and these two are going to go at it here
00:51:19one-on-one tonight.
00:51:21And Lashley's a proud man.
00:51:23We talked to Lashley about the fact
00:51:24that he had been undefeated
00:51:25up to no way out.
00:51:27He was really upset
00:51:28after losing that matchup.
00:51:29I don't blame Lashley.
00:51:30Anybody screws up your undefeated streak
00:51:32in an, you know,
00:51:33an improper manner,
00:51:35you know,
00:51:35you want to get beat like a man,
00:51:37and Lashley didn't.
00:51:37Well, Lashley went for the clean break.
00:51:39Nothing clean about the way
00:51:40Finley does business.
00:51:42This guy beats up Julius.
00:51:43Well, he beats up anybody.
00:51:45That's what Finley's about.
00:51:46Watch out!
00:51:46Lashley caught Finley in the air!
00:51:48Inverted atomic drop.
00:51:50He hooked him.
00:51:51Watch this!
00:51:51What a belly-to-belly throw
00:51:53by Lashley.
00:51:54Great quick hips
00:51:55by Lashley
00:51:57as he popped off
00:51:58that belly-to-belly
00:51:59suplex.
00:52:00Finley whipped
00:52:01through the corner.
00:52:01Here comes a 300-pound
00:52:03free trade!
00:52:04A free trade!
00:52:07How quick
00:52:08and powerful
00:52:09is Lashley.
00:52:10That was
00:52:11nice.
00:52:11And that Finley,
00:52:12Finley's got that
00:52:13shillelagh in his hand again.
00:52:14Oh, he had it in his hand.
00:52:16Yeah, I'll tell you what,
00:52:17Lashley's fist
00:52:17is as nasty
00:52:18as a shillelagh.
00:52:20Lashley telegraphed
00:52:21that a bit.
00:52:21Finley took advantage.
00:52:22Oh, for the clothesline.
00:52:24Yeah, left-handed
00:52:25clothesline.
00:52:26You'll see that
00:52:26over that.
00:52:27Driving the shin
00:52:28in the back of the skull
00:52:29and recovered by Finley.
00:52:31Kick out at one and a half.
00:52:32Look at his clothesline here.
00:52:33Watch this by Lashley.
00:52:35Let's see.
00:52:36Finley's clothesline here.
00:52:37Watch this.
00:52:37A left-hand short
00:52:38clothesline.

00:52:44Now, the final throw
00:52:44by Lashley.
00:52:45Kick out at one and a half
00:52:46by Finley.
00:52:48I love this.
00:52:49I love the physicality
00:52:50that these two
00:52:51from men,
00:52:52these two types of men

00:52:58Oh, my God.
00:52:58There he goes.
00:52:59Oh, he's got two chance
00:53:00heads off.
00:53:01Finley just threw his staff.
00:53:02He's gonna get your ass
00:53:03up.
00:53:03He's gonna call you.
00:53:04Three steel chairs

00:53:20Listen, it's all nation
00:53:22at the nation's capital.
00:53:23Officials coming out
00:53:24to separate Lashley
00:53:26from Finley.
00:53:27This hat down fans
00:53:28don't like it.
00:53:29Yeah, look at Finley.

01:00:44He is a wrestling machine.
01:00:49He is the greatest cheer wrestler in WWE history.
01:00:55And he is the World Heavyweight Champion.
01:00:59Ladies and gentlemen, coming up next, the biggest main event in the history of SmackDown.
01:01:07Kurt Angle versus The Undertaker for the championship.
01:01:14The World Heavyweight Champion, Kurt Angle, set to defend his title in a rematch of a classic battle from No
01:01:23Way Out.
01:01:51And the challenger from the dead valley.
01:01:55weighing in at 305 pounds
01:02:00the Undertaker
01:02:52the Undertaker
01:02:55the Undertaker
01:03:38the Undertaker
01:03:39welcome to the nation's capital
01:03:40welcome to the NPI center
01:03:43in Washington, D.C.
01:03:45Kurt Angle is the world
01:03:46heavyweight champion
01:03:47he stands 5'11
01:03:49he weighs 220 pounds
01:03:51He is a former Olympic gold medalist, and he is the greatest pure athlete in WWE history, a wrestling machine.
01:04:01The Undertaker, the number one contender, 6'10", 305 pounds, the former WWE champion, and the greatest pure striker in
01:04:11WWE history.
01:04:13They are face-to-face tonight for the World MMA Championship and the main event at WrestleMania.
01:04:22Who will go to the greatest show of them all as champion? That will be decided right now.
01:04:29And that's what it's all about right there. The World Heavyweight Championship.
01:04:35Just a couple of weeks ago at No Way Out, The Undertaker, with a triangle choke on Kurt Angle, had
01:04:41it counted on him into a pinning combination.
01:04:44And it cannot sit well with The Undertaker, Taz, that he was pinned by a man, Kurt Angle, who was
01:04:50nearly unconscious.
01:04:52Absolutely, and you've got to figure that The Undertaker, he's on fire, he's livid, and he wants Angle, and he's
01:05:00going to get a lot of Angle.
01:05:01Angle now all over The Undertaker, right out of the box.
01:05:06Uh-oh, uh-oh.
01:05:08Undertaker with the strength, cross the champion on the corner, and they are the one prepared by the striker, The
01:05:14Undertaker.
01:05:15Boom, yeah, he's called some Major League suit balls.
01:05:18Uh-oh.
01:05:19Can you believe the excitement? Can you believe the energy? Can you believe the buzz in the crowd here tonight?
01:05:25Yeah, I can't, Cole, I can, I can believe it, because these are two future Hall of Famers, two of
01:05:32the most well-decorated athletes, and successful men here on SmackDown, now an arm ball by Angle.
01:05:40The word's still ringing in my head as Kurt Angle works on the left arm of The Undertaker.
01:05:44Undertaker backing Angle into the corner at the end of No Way Out, telling the champion, I've got your number,
01:05:49we will see here tonight.
01:05:51Well, Kurt Angle's got a beautiful Fujiwara arm bar right now, a side arm bar on The Undertaker, a great
01:05:57way to bring down the damn near 7'10 Undertaker.
01:06:05And it's smart, you see what Undertaker's doing, he's trying to deliver some back elbows to the back of the
01:06:11head of Kurt Angle.
01:06:12If you're Kurt Angle tasked, would you be concerned that at No Way Out, Undertaker matched you at your own
01:06:17game, and if Taker can play his game tonight,
01:06:19look out for the champion, Kurt Angle.
01:06:22The game you're talking about is the game of grappling, the game of, you know, mat work, wrestling, and that's
01:06:27exactly it, here you see, a Fujiwara arm bar now by The Undertaker.
01:06:31And at No Way Out, we saw that, we saw The Undertaker more or less go hold for hold for
01:06:36the Olympic gold medalist, Kurt Angle.
01:06:38Undertaker working on the left arm of Kurt Angle, who tries to roll through, but Undertaker continues the grip on
01:06:44the former Olympic gold medalist.
01:06:46When I said that No Way Out, I'll say it again, it's no secret that The Undertaker is a student
01:06:50of the submission game.
01:06:52He knows how to apply submission, and he's very good at it.
01:06:57Oh, look at this, look at the power, lifting Kurt Angle, Kurt Angle in trouble.
01:07:03It's over to the mat below.
01:07:06That'll throw out an elbow or a shoulder.
01:07:08Oh, yeah, it could snap a forearm, a wrist, an elbow, which would prevent Angle from applying that ankle lock,
01:07:14which is so deadly.
01:07:16Remember It No Way Out, Undertaker was in the ankle lock a number of times by Kurt Angle.
01:07:20Undertaker realizes he needs to take that out of the champion's offer.
01:07:25The Angle here now, a victim of that rope being used with that arm bar by The Undertaker, referee, gave
01:07:31him a five-county.
01:07:33Referee, he's jumping out of that ring, he's a little nervous of the dead man, I don't blame him.
01:07:37Yeah, look at Kurt Angle, trying to knock The Undertaker down to size by working on the knee, softening up
01:07:43the leg so he can apply the ankle lock.
01:07:46And if memory serves me correctly, Taz, I believe it was that left leg of The Undertaker that Kurt Angle
01:07:52pinpointed for nearly a half an hour at No Way Out.
01:07:54Oh, you're dead right on, man, you're right about that.
01:07:58And now, looks like we're having to go to school here, going to the old school.
01:08:03Oh, and Kurt Angle realizing that, delivered the right hand.
01:08:06The champion with an uppercut knocks Undertaker off the top rope.
01:08:09I cannot believe, I want to just say this, that we're being treated to this match again.
01:08:13It was unbelievable at No Way Out, and now the biggest rematch in SmackDown history for the World Heavyweight title.
01:08:22And you see Kurt Angle with the boot to the throat, what these gentlemen will do, Taz, because the championship's
01:08:28on the line is pull out all the stops, by any means necessary.
01:08:32Whatever it takes to win the championship and go to WrestleMania to be in the main event.
01:08:38Can you imagine the Undertaker going to WrestleMania as the champion, 13-0 in his career at WrestleMania?
01:08:47Angle now trying to shoot in.
01:08:48Oh, good work. The Undertaker lost the ring. Undertaker's too powerful.
01:08:53Again, working on that left arm.
01:08:55It seems like the game plan, if you're the dead man.
01:08:58And you can see the champion, Kurt Angle, remacing in pain as Undertaker works the left arm.
01:09:04Gradually brings the champion back to his feet.
01:09:06And you can hear the SmackDown fans going back and forth at one another.
01:09:11Summer chanting, let's go, Angle. Summer chanting, let's go, Taker.
01:09:14And that is what this matchup is all about.
01:09:18Kick to the midsection.
01:09:20Kurt Angle.
01:09:22With the right hand to the Undertaker.
01:09:243, 4, 5, 6, 7.
01:09:28Wearing at that head.
01:09:30Look at this.
01:09:30Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:09:31And the only one to go for that last ride.
01:09:32Kurt Angle in trouble.
01:09:33The champion in trouble.
01:09:34Remember at no way out?
01:09:35Kurt Angle turned this into an angle line.
01:09:38Watch out.
01:09:38But Kurt Angle, he's gone.
01:09:40Up on the top rope.
01:09:42You remember that, right?
01:09:43At no way out, Undertaker went for that damn last ride.
01:09:47And Angle turned it into an ankle line.
01:09:49Kurt Angle rolled through.
01:09:50Oh, my God.
01:09:51And look at the boot from the Undertaker to Kurt Angle.
01:09:54The Undertaker's in control.
01:09:56Can Kurt Angle get back in the game with a title on the line when we return?
01:10:03Undertaker driving Kurt Angle kidney first into the apron.
01:10:08Well, Undertaker destroying the announce table.
01:10:11Welcome back to Smackdown.
01:10:13Undertaker in control of Kurt Angle with the World Heavyweight Championship on the line.
01:10:17We'll have to break down on here.
01:10:18There is.
01:10:19Well, remember what I would have known at all.
01:10:21Kurt Angle, Angle slam the Undertaker through the announce table.
01:10:26Undertaker looking for payback tonight.
01:10:28But Angle again turned the line.
01:10:30What a close line.
01:10:31Did you hear that in front of us?
01:10:33I heard it.
01:10:33I saw it.
01:10:34I don't know how.
01:10:35It's a small miracle.
01:10:37Kurt Angle's head was just knocked right off by the dead man.
01:10:41Let's take a look at his close line, Cole.
01:10:44Let's talk about physical.
01:10:46Check this.
01:10:47Turning Kurt Angle inside out.
01:10:50Uh-oh.
01:10:51Watch out.
01:10:52Watch out.
01:10:52Remember, Angle, he's got it.
01:10:54Oh!
01:10:55He's got that neck, Cole.
01:10:56That surgically repaired neck.
01:10:59Well, ladies and gentlemen, you are about to witness Vintage Undertaker.
01:11:02The Undertaker has made himself an egg by doing this.
01:11:06Watch the leg drop.
01:11:08Oh, if he can get it.
01:11:10If he can.
01:11:11Oh, wait a minute.
01:11:11Thought he was going for the leg drop again.
01:11:14Oh, my God.
01:11:15You're right.
01:11:16You meant Undertaker could be sadistic when he wants to be.
01:11:19Undertaker.
01:11:20Targeted.
01:11:21Targeted.
01:11:21Targeted.
01:11:23Undertaker realizing Angle's got a kick in the armor.
01:11:26And that's the bad neck.
01:11:27He rolled Kurt Angle over.
01:11:29Exposing the net to the leg drop.
01:11:31Undertaker by Eddie Meade's necessary to win the title on the line.
01:11:35Look at the height.
01:11:36And then the impact.
01:11:37Right across the upper spinal cord region.
01:11:41How smart is the Undertaker?
01:11:43He realized the kick in the armor.
01:11:45And he exposed it of the champion.
01:11:48Undertaker is extremely dangerous, vicious, and violent.
01:11:52He can.
01:11:53Uh-oh.
01:11:54He might get a win here.
01:11:55Undertaker.
01:11:56Champion takes that at two.
01:11:58But what did that take that angle?
01:12:00That leg drop.
01:12:01Now look at this.
01:12:01Right driving that forearm right across that neck.
01:12:05Well, this is where the assault first began.
01:12:08Undertaker.
01:12:08Watch this boot.
01:12:10The head.
01:12:10Oh, my God.
01:12:11Can't stop that.
01:12:12Watch this neck.
01:12:13Angle's head and neck.
01:12:14Head area.
01:12:14Look at that.
01:12:16Violent kick in the face.
01:12:18And that neck just whiplash.
01:12:20A whiplash in like motion.
01:12:22And ever since then, Undertaker's been targeting the injured neck of Kurt Angle.
01:12:27Bring it up on the ground.
01:12:28Again, right this is it.
01:12:29This is going right for it.
01:12:30He's stretching all the almost ligaments and cartilage and vertebrae in Kurt Angle's neck.
01:12:38No more Mr. Nice Guy.
01:12:40Lie to one of these men.
01:12:41This is about the World Heavyweight Championship.
01:12:44This is about headlining WrestleMania on April 2nd.
01:12:48One of these men will do that as the champion.
01:12:51Stakes are so high here.
01:12:53Now.
01:12:57Again, the let's go Angle and let's go take the game.
01:13:00Yeah, it's kind of a mixed reaction.
01:13:01Oh, that's right.
01:13:02Oh, that's right.
01:13:03Champion.
01:13:03Power slam.
01:13:04I don't remember the last time I seen Angle do that.
01:13:06But Kurt Angle with that unbelievably amateur wrestling background got those quick hips.
01:13:12Kurt Angle bought himself some time.
01:13:15Here he goes to cover.
01:13:18Shoulders down.
01:13:19Kick on it too.
01:13:20You're right though.
01:13:20That's exactly what Angle did.
01:13:22And now Kurt with the knee in the back.
01:13:24You don't want this way.
01:13:25You don't want Angle behind you.
01:13:27You want to choke on you.
01:13:29Kurt's got such great map balance.
01:13:33And now he pulled on the face of the Undertaker did of Angle and he pulled his head out.
01:13:38Kurt Angle now allowing little separation between himself and the challenger.
01:13:41Realizes he must stay on the attack of the Undertaker.
01:13:44You can feel the angst of Angle.
01:13:45Oh.
01:13:46You can feel the angst.
01:13:47Right now.
01:13:48Here we go.
01:13:48Pooks the leg again.
01:13:49And a kick out of two and a half by the Undertaker.
01:13:51That's what makes Kurt Angle and the Undertaker so successful with a body scissors now.
01:13:57That's what makes both these men so successful, Cole.
01:13:59They know when they got the upper hand and they don't show any signs of letting up.
01:14:04They're relentless.
01:14:06They are two of the greatest ever.
01:14:07There is absolutely no doubt about that.
01:14:09Shoulders are down for the Undertaker who just manages to get his right shoulder up.
01:14:13Referee to Patrick in perfect position.
01:14:15This hold here is a body scissors.
01:14:17Again, what this can do to you, it just wears out your midsection.
01:14:20It can break a rib.
01:14:21Kurt Angle's lower body is so powerful.
01:14:23Now Angle is in a guard type position.
01:14:26And now you got the dead man on top of you.
01:14:29With a right hand.
01:14:30And the challenger with a right to the jaw of the champion.
01:14:34That's what you don't want, Drank.
01:14:35You don't want to leave yourself open to have, you know,
01:14:38the Undertaker throw some of those nasty punches at your face.
01:14:41Exactly right.
01:14:43Undertaker seems to be in control again.
01:14:45This is unbelievable.
01:14:46I can't believe this.
01:14:47This is great, man.
01:14:48We've had the pleasure of sitting here and taking this all in.
01:14:51Not once, but twice in the last two weeks.
01:14:54Uh-oh.
01:14:54Angle now in a corner in trouble.
01:14:56Can Undertaker capitalize?
01:14:58Kurt Angle's a guy!
01:14:59And the big man got caught up by the top rope.
01:15:02That's a lot of long legs right there that got caught in those ropes.
01:15:05It is the quickness of the champion, Kurt Angle.
01:15:10Right hand.
01:15:10And another right.
01:15:12Undertaker teetering on the apron.
01:15:15The physicality now.
01:15:17The endurance of both these men.
01:15:19They're starting to feel it here a little bit.
01:15:21Uh-oh.
01:15:21Uh-oh.
01:15:22Uh-oh.
01:15:22Uh-oh.
01:15:23Oh!
01:15:23Taker with a high elbow.
01:15:25Quickly back up to the apron.
01:15:27I don't know what Kurt had in mind, but he had some bad intentions on his mind.
01:15:30And the dead man pulled out a desperation back elbow.
01:15:34This match cannot get any more even than it has been to this point.
01:15:38As we take another look at the counter by the Undertaker.
01:15:41Well, I think that Kurt Angle was looking to try and maybe drive.
01:15:43I don't know.
01:15:44Drive Undertaker over to...
01:15:45Uh-oh.
01:15:45Wait.
01:15:46Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:15:47Look at the dead man, Colby.
01:15:49Look at Kurt Angle.
01:15:50Holy God, the quickness knocked off the ropes.
01:15:53He ran into a right hand, I believe.
01:15:55Undertaker, a little fatigue here.
01:15:58Kurt Angle quickly back on the attack.
01:16:01Right hand to the Undertaker.
01:16:04Those right hands.
01:16:05Several right hands.
01:16:07Uppercut to the face.
01:16:08Undertaker went to the top.
01:16:10Went to attempt something here.
01:16:11I think it backed by a goal.
01:16:13Angle trying to wear the Undertaker down.
01:16:15Oh, my.
01:16:16Oh, my.
01:16:16Oh, my.
01:16:17Oh, my.
01:16:18Undertaker in trouble here.
01:16:20Super flex from the top rope.
01:16:24Both these athletes, both these superstars,
01:16:27leaving it in the ring.
01:16:28Kurt Angle with the cover.
01:16:29He holds the arms, shoulders down.
01:16:31And a kick out at two and a half.
01:16:34Oh, the World Heavyweight Championship
01:16:36in a berth in WrestleMania hangs in the balance
01:16:39when we return from our final commercial break.
01:16:44We are back on Friday Night SmackDown.
01:16:46Inside the MCI Center, Washington, D.C.
01:16:49The World Heavyweight Championship on the line.
01:16:52Kurt Angle, the champion.
01:16:53The challenge of the Undertaker.
01:16:55And there was the champ Superplex
01:16:56before the commercial break.
01:16:58You see the Undertaker bounce off the mat
01:17:00after the impact of his body
01:17:02over that top world Superplex.
01:17:04And now here, that's what I said earlier.
01:17:06Don't want Angle behind you.
01:17:09Well, Undertaker desperately trying to get out of this,
01:17:12and he does.
01:17:14Now, can the Undertaker capitalize?
01:17:16Did he lose too much oxygen and blood rush to that brain?
01:17:19Nice double leg by Angle.
01:17:21Here we go.
01:17:21Right hands by the champion.
01:17:23Undertaker trying to cover up, but to no avail.
01:17:25Kurt Angle turning it up another notch.
01:17:28And that's what Angle does so well, Cole.
01:17:30He turns it up another notch.
01:17:31He shifts gears.
01:17:32Oh, man.
01:17:33Undertaker not going to top rope.
01:17:35But he has to wear with all the ground, the champion.
01:17:37Oh, man.
01:17:38Watch out.
01:17:39What the hell's going to happen?
01:17:41Undertaker.
01:17:42Your knee burst into the steel steps.
01:17:45Whoa.
01:17:47Whoa.
01:17:49Kurt Angle.
01:17:51Kurt's back into the ring to break the count.
01:17:54Oh, Cole, Cole, Cole, look at this.
01:17:55Watch the knees.
01:17:57Oh, man.
01:17:58Knees.
01:17:59What a shadow of the teller is.
01:18:02His shin bone, Undertaker.
01:18:04Nist.
01:18:05But again, Kurt Angle, by any means necessary, quickly rolls the challenger back into the ring.
01:18:10Here we go.
01:18:10Here we go.
01:18:10Here we go.
01:18:11Holders down.
01:18:11There's one.
01:18:12Oh, and a kick out by the Undertaker.
01:18:15Kurt trying to get a quick one.
01:18:16Kurt trying to get a quick one.
01:18:18I think that was pretty smart on his end.
01:18:19Well, why not?
01:18:20He just drove the Undertaker's knee first into a steel step.
01:18:24And there's an upward cut by the champion.
01:18:25This is the point in the match where your cardiovascular, you know, your abilities are...
01:18:31Oh, that takes place right now.
01:18:33Can you kick it in here?
01:18:34And both these men, they got some pop in those punches.
01:18:37Two of the most decorated athletes in WWE history.
01:18:42For the World Heavyweight Championship.
01:18:45This is good stuff, man.
01:18:48Boop.
01:18:50Back and forth.
01:18:52Momentum swing after momentum swing.
01:18:54Here we go.
01:18:55Kurt taking 305 pounds.
01:18:58Kurt's in trouble.
01:18:59Kurt's in trouble.
01:19:00Uh-oh.
01:19:01Oh, my.
01:19:02Snake eyes.
01:19:03Roll the dice.
01:19:05Watch this.
01:19:06Went for the boot.
01:19:07Kurt Angle ducked underneath.
01:19:09German.
01:19:09And two-pucks release.
01:19:11These men know each other so well, Taz.
01:19:14Angle knew the boot was going to follow up off the snake eyes.
01:19:17He ducked underneath into a German.
01:19:19Both these men so well-prepared.
01:19:21Such great competitors.
01:19:25Kurt Angle stalking the Undertaker.
01:19:28Kurt Angle measuring his man.
01:19:30Going perhaps for the Angle slam.
01:19:31Here we go.
01:19:32Undertaker up.
01:19:33Nobody home.
01:19:34Oh, to the face.
01:19:35Oh, man.
01:19:36Did you see Angle's eyes?
01:19:37He might be.
01:19:38Oh, are we going to crown a new champion?
01:19:40New champions too.
01:19:41Go.
01:19:41Two and a half.
01:19:43Did you see Kurt Angle's eyes?
01:19:44I think he just kicked out an instinct.
01:19:46I'm telling you.
01:19:48Uh-oh.
01:19:50Undertaker realized in the end may be near.
01:19:52We may be close to crowning a new World Heavyweight Champion.
01:19:55Goal zone.
01:19:56What goes up, Cole?
01:19:58Oh, here we go.
01:19:58Must go.
01:19:59And now it's a counter.
01:20:01Roll into the ankle lock.
01:20:02He's got it.
01:20:03He's got it.
01:20:04Ankle lock.
01:20:05Here it is.
01:20:06He's got to turn Undertaker over on his belly if he can.
01:20:09Not necessarily.
01:20:11He could get an attack maybe from the side.
01:20:13Undertaker's never tapped out in his career.
01:20:15The ankle lock is locked in.
01:20:17Undertaker in a world of trouble.
01:20:18Uh-oh.
01:20:18And now he's on his belly.
01:20:19And let's remember just a few minutes ago, Undertaker's knees up.
01:20:23And Undertaker power now.
01:20:24I was going to say, we're flying into those steel steps.
01:20:27He's hurting.
01:20:29Oh, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:20:31Oh, no.
01:20:31Kurt can't cheat.
01:20:32He can't switch it.
01:20:34And he can switch it.
01:20:35He can switch it.
01:20:37Can an angle one more two stone.
01:20:40Wow.
01:20:41What did it say?
01:20:42Here we go.
01:20:42Ankle slam.
01:20:44Kurt Angle's going to win it.
01:20:46Kurt Angle's going to mania.
01:20:47He's got it.
01:20:48Here's the time.
01:20:49Two.
01:20:49Got it.
01:20:51Got it.
01:20:51Got it.
01:20:53Wow.
01:20:54Oh, my Lord.
01:20:56Oh, man.
01:20:56Oh, man.
01:20:57Can you believe it?
01:20:59Can you say carve and copy?
01:21:01It's the replay.
01:21:04I've never, ever, thought we'd get something like we did at Noe.
01:21:08Oh, and we're gonna.
01:21:09And Angle's going to go for the day.
01:21:11The ankle lock.
01:21:11The champion.
01:21:12The ankle lock locked in.
01:21:13Undertaker.
01:21:14Will he tap out for the first time ever?
01:21:16Tank is, Tank is indeed trouble.
01:21:19With nowhere to go.
01:21:21Tank has got to try and pull it out.
01:21:23Oh, that ankle lock.
01:21:24He'll snap it.
01:21:25Angle will snap Tanker's ankle.
01:21:27And they're gonna turn Angle.
01:21:28The champion in the eye.
01:21:30Uh-oh.
01:21:30Undertaker on one knee.
01:21:33Tank has got to try and do something.
01:21:35Try to run through.
01:21:36He does.
01:21:37Wow.
01:21:37He got out of it.
01:21:39But once again, it's done.
01:21:40Kurt Gold.
01:21:42Oh, my.
01:21:44Undertaker.
01:21:45He's got it.
01:21:47This time, he got it.
01:21:49But Undertaker.
01:21:50Can't capitalize.
01:21:52It's that ankle, man.
01:21:53Undertaker could be the next World Heavyweight Champion.
01:21:57Oh, my God.
01:21:58Kurt Angle picked the ankle.
01:21:59Angle picked the ankle.
01:22:00He's got the ankle lock.
01:22:03Angle's...
01:22:03They're all good.
01:22:04He's saying, Katz.
01:22:06What do you say, Undertaker?
01:22:08Undertaker's riding in the cage.
01:22:11And look at this.
01:22:11Wait a minute.
01:22:13Triangle choke.
01:22:13Just like it, no way out.
01:22:15The triangle choke is locked in.
01:22:17This is the way Angle almost launched the match.
01:22:20The triangle choke.
01:22:22The submission will choke you out right here.
01:22:24This fact, that crowd is out at the feet of the NCI Center.
01:22:26We may be close to crowning the new champion, The Undertaker, with a triangle choke.
01:22:31Kurt Angle may be failing.
01:22:32Kurt, Kurt's, this move, doesn't it need to be applied long to choke you out?
01:22:37And the long legs of The Undertaker will make Kurt maybe tap with...
01:22:42Oh, look at this.
01:22:43Kurt Angle's...
01:22:43Stacked him up.
01:22:44He stacks him up.
01:22:45Shoulders are down.
01:22:46Stuggles up.
01:22:46And Undertaker rolled at it one this time.
01:22:48Exactly like No Way Out.
01:22:50Exactly.
01:22:50But this time, the dead man didn't get caught.
01:22:55And The Undertaker, I believe he still has that triangle choke locked in.
01:22:59He's going to go.
01:23:00Angle's going to...
01:23:01I don't know for sure, but it looks like he's going to go.
01:23:04If the arm goes down three times, it's over.
01:23:06We'll have a new champion.
01:23:07Kurt Angle's never tapped out in his career.
01:23:09Will he do it here?
01:23:10No!
01:23:12Hang on.
01:23:13Angle hung on.
01:23:14Kurt Angle trying it, and he does.
01:23:16Makes it to the bottom rope.
01:23:18That's huge for Kurt.
01:23:19Huge for Kurt to get out of that hole.
01:23:21Can you believe the action?
01:23:23In this match.
01:23:25Yeah, I kind of can.
01:23:27It's awesome.
01:23:33Listen to these SmackDown fans.
01:23:35They call two of the greatest competitors in the industry today.
01:23:38I have an edit for the World Heavyweight Championship.
01:23:41Industry today.
01:23:42How about of all time?
01:23:43No doubt, man.
01:23:44You got my vote.
01:23:45Undertaker.
01:23:46Heads up.
01:23:47Let's have to drop the lever.
01:23:48Wait a minute.
01:23:49He caught him.
01:23:49Angle caught him.
01:23:50He caught the ankle.
01:23:51He's so good.
01:23:52Angle's so damn good.
01:23:54The ankle lock locked in.
01:23:55The ankle lock is locked in.
01:23:56Off on leg drop?
01:23:57You've got to be kidding me.
01:23:59Beautiful by Angle.
01:24:01Undertaker writhing in pain.
01:24:03Has he had enough?
01:24:04Will the Challenger tap out here on SmackDown?
01:24:08Undertaker's going to tap down.
01:24:10Undertaker.
01:24:10Is he going to tap out?
01:24:12It's Kurt Angle.
01:24:12Going to retain the title.
01:24:13He might tap.
01:24:15He's right in the middle of the ring.
01:24:16What the hell is the Undertaker going to do?
01:24:19Look at.
01:24:20Look at the way that Angle twisted.
01:24:21Watch out.
01:24:22And again, Undertaker power down.
01:24:24Unreal.
01:24:25Unbelievable.
01:24:26Oh my.
01:24:28Undertaker back to his feet.
01:24:29Kurt Angle.
01:24:30There we go.
01:24:31Right for the Angle slams.
01:24:33Undertaker.
01:24:34He's got it.
01:24:36He's got it.
01:24:36I didn't burn it.
01:24:37I thought he was going to go for a different DDT, but he's got a dragon sleeper.
01:24:41It's the beginning of it.
01:24:42If Undertaker can get a grapevine, get those legs in, it'll be a full-fledged dragon sleeper.
01:24:47Kurt Angle trying to battle out.
01:24:49Kurt Angle's absorbed a tremendous amount of punishment.
01:24:51Nice.
01:24:52Oh, DDT.
01:24:53That's the Undertaker.
01:24:54Beautiful counter by Kurt Angle.
01:24:56Can you believe the momentum springs in this match?
01:24:58Oh, look at this.
01:24:59Here's the cover.
01:24:59Shoulders down.
01:25:00Chariot's going to win it.
01:25:03Wow, and two.
01:25:05Whew.
01:25:06This is great.
01:25:07This is just flat-out great.
01:25:10Both Kurt Angle and The Undertaker absolutely exhausted in what has been a grueling match.
01:25:15With the championship on the line in the main event at WrestleMania.
01:25:19High stakes, Cole.
01:25:20High stakes, baby.
01:25:22Uh-oh.
01:25:22What is Kurt going to do?
01:25:23Uh-oh.
01:25:24Where the hell is he going?
01:25:25Wait a minute.
01:25:25Kurt, what the hell are you doing?
01:25:26Movesaw!
01:25:27Movesaw, mommy-ho!
01:25:29Angle, crashed and burned on a top rope, Movesaw.
01:25:33And The Undertaker sat up.
01:25:36Oh, man.
01:25:37Oh, no!
01:25:38That might have been a big mistake by Kurt.
01:25:40We are going to crown a new champion.
01:25:42We're going to crown a new champion.
01:25:44Here we go.
01:25:46Come on!
01:25:46Come on!
01:25:47It's over.
01:25:48It is over.
01:25:49Surgically repaired there.
01:25:51Undertaker.
01:25:51Wait a minute.
01:25:52What the hell?
01:25:53What the hell is that?
01:25:55What the hell is he doing?
01:25:57What the hell is Movesaw Henry doing?
01:25:59Get him the hell out of the ring.
01:26:00What is this?
01:26:01You've got to be kidding me.
01:26:03Wait a minute.
01:26:04You've got to be kidding me.
01:26:06What is Henry doing here?
01:26:19What the hell is he doing?
01:26:32What the hell is he going?
01:26:35Wait a minute.
01:26:36Get down from there.
01:26:37Get down from there.
01:26:39That's a 400 pound.
01:26:40Get down from there.
01:26:41Get down from there.
01:26:42What the hell is he going to be doing?
01:26:43Go.
01:26:43Get down.
01:26:44Get down.
01:26:45Come on now.
01:26:46He's 400 pounds, Paul.
01:26:51Thank God.
01:26:52He's second guess.
01:26:53He's not going to do it.
01:26:55That would have been the end of the day, man.
01:26:57Thank goodness.
01:27:00Wait a minute, Paul.
01:27:01Oh, my God.
01:27:02Oh, my God.
01:27:03He's running.
01:27:03Oh, my God.
01:27:04Somebody stop this man.
01:27:06He's standing on the damn table.
01:27:08What the hell is he going to do?
01:27:09Oh, my God.
01:27:11Oh, my God.
01:27:13Oh, my God.
01:27:15Oh, my God.
01:27:17Oh, my God.
01:27:18Oh, my God.
01:27:18400 pound splash.
01:27:20Mark Henry splashing the Undertaker through the end of the table.
01:27:26Don't throw me alone.
01:27:27You've got to be kidding me.
01:27:29I can't do it.
01:27:32I have never seen anyone do that to the Undertaker before.
01:27:38I'm speechless.
01:27:41A 400 pound Mark Henry splat right on the dead man.
01:27:46Oh, my God.
01:27:49Can't believe this.
01:27:52Mark Henry on top of the world.
01:27:55Look at this, Paul.
01:27:57We've got him second guess at M.O.S.
01:27:59Oh, my God.
01:28:01400 pound a damn building.
01:28:03Look at this angle here.
01:28:04Look at this impact.
01:28:07Mark Henry rushing.
01:28:10I mean rushing the Undertaker.
01:28:13Who wants him now?
01:28:14Tell him one more time.
01:28:19Oh, my God.
01:28:21Oh, my God.
01:28:21Oh, my God.
01:28:21Oh, my God.
01:28:21Oh, my God.
01:28:21Oh, my God.
01:28:21Oh, my God.
01:28:22Oh, my God.
