00:07Then, now, forever, together.
00:33Okay, did I go to Drew McIntyre's home?
00:36Did a member of law enforcement get thrown into the water?
00:40Did things get physical?
00:41Yes.
00:54That little yard brawl was one-tenth of what should happen
00:59right here, right now, with me and Drew McIntyre in this very ring.
01:06Cody, I don't think you appreciate the situation you've got yourself into.
01:12And to make things worse, I had to make a bad deal.
01:15If I come back, I get my WWE Championship match with Cody Woods.
01:19But I want to pick the stipulation.
01:22I can live with that.
01:22Okay.
01:23Pleasure doing business with you, buddy.
01:26Yes, you're the champ, but you're not above the law.
01:30When Drew comes back, if he pays the fine and makes that public apology to Dan Engler,
01:38Cody, you can't lay a finger on Drew McIntyre.
01:43McIntyre.
01:44Or what?
01:47Or I have to strip you of the WWE Championship.
01:54Merry Christmas, asshole.
01:57You're out of control.
01:59You're not good for that championship.
02:01You're not fit for the job, but I am.
02:04I feel like you've forgotten who you're talking to.
02:08And here you are saying that I'm not above the law as long as I have this title.
02:13I am the law.
02:18Mr. Aldis, my friend, your demand, his demand.
02:23Remember one thing while I am holding this.
02:26I don't work for you.
02:28I work for them.
02:32And you, my friend, you work for me.
02:47The heated rivalry between Drew McIntyre and Cody Rhodes is truly the gift that keeps on giving.
02:53And this week in WWE was certainly no exception.
02:56Welcome on in, everyone, to a fun and fresh new episode.
02:59I'm Megan Morant.
03:00And if there's one thing about Drew McIntyre, it's that he can get under a person's skin.
03:05Specifically, the undisputed WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes.
03:09With Drew having already begun to fulfill his terms by signing the contract,
03:14Nick Aldis was quick to remind Cody that he couldn't lay his hands on McIntyre
03:19once Drew apologized to WWE official Dan Angler and paid his fine.
03:24Not unless Cody wanted to be stripped of his championship.
03:27The American nightmare grew more and more agitated as the night continued.
03:32But finally, the Scottish warrior held up his end of the bargain, handing the SmackDown general manager a check
03:38and apologizing to Dan Angler.
03:40And while the apology seems sincere at first, well, you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
03:47I also apologize that it was obviously your dream to be a wrestler right here in this ring,
03:54doing what I do, former world champion.
03:56But you weren't good enough, so you had to be a referee.
04:01Let me come down to your level.
04:05I apologize that your lovely wife, Melissa, had to watch me claymore you in the face.
04:13And she had to think to herself, I wish I had a husband like Drew
04:17that stood up for his convictions no matter the consequences.
04:21I get why you did it, you had to save yourself, you had to screw me to save yourself, protect
04:26Cody.
04:28But I feel sorry and I apologize for your children.
04:35That they have such a coward, corporate, stooge for a father.
04:41Oh, I'm not finished there.
04:43I could go on all day.
04:44You want to do something?
04:45You want to be a man?
04:46Do you want to hit me?
04:47Do you want to get revenge on me right now?
04:50Go for it, Dan.
04:53Get.
04:59I know why you're so upset.
05:02It's because they attacked you on your tour bus, your home away from home,
05:07where your family sleeps.
05:10But your family weren't there when I attacked you, were they?
05:14But I wish they were there.
05:18I wish your children could see a real man put the boots to you.
05:25I wish your wife, Brandi, could see what a real daddy looks like.
05:33Come on, come on, come on, I know you want to do it.
05:36Do it, strike.
05:42You want to know the stipulation?
05:46You want to know?
05:47Help me!
05:47We're not doing this match in America.
05:49You've screwed me three times here.
05:51We're taking this to Berlin, Germany.
05:56Trying to make my life hell.
05:58I'm obviously in your head making it hell.
06:00How about this?
06:03Drew McIntyre against Cody Rhodes for the WWE Championship.
06:09Three stages of hell.
06:16Absolutely, you're done.
06:17You agree?
06:18Yes, I agree.
06:20We're agreed.
06:22There's one more thing.
06:31When I torture you in Berlin,
06:35when I send you straight to hell.
06:43Say hi to your dad for me.
06:46Say hi to your dad for me.
06:51Claymore!
07:05McIntyre knows exactly what he's doing.
07:09Cody Rhodes is handcuffed.
07:12He can't touch Drew McIntyre for another two weeks.
07:34Oh, Lash thinking about ending this one.
07:36Could be looking for the Lash extension.
07:39Charlotte able to muscle her way up and over.
07:41Oh, and it turns into a DDT.
07:42Great counter by Charlotte.
07:46Looking for a cover.
07:49Charlotte Flair, I think, is all out of sorts.
07:51This has been a beatdown, courtesy of Lash Legend.
07:55Charlotte needs to compose herself.
07:57A little disrespect from the Queen.
08:00Megan to climb to the top.
08:04Charlotte, top rope.
08:08Moonsault by Flair.
08:09Here's the cover.
08:11Oh, and Legend just able to kick out.
08:14And, you know, honestly, Cole,
08:15I think Charlotte has to blame herself.
08:17Let's take another look at this.
08:19A picture-perfect moonsault from Flair.
08:21We've seen her do it a million times.
08:23But Charlotte got a little cute on the cover.
08:26She used an unorthodox hook of the leg,
08:28and that may have cost the Queen the win.
08:32And now attacking the base of Lash Legend.
08:37A smart strategy.
08:38I'm a little surprised that Charlotte didn't employ it earlier.
08:42But Flair kicked into the turnbuckle after she took her eye off the ball.
08:47Look out, Nia.
08:48Nia Jax now.
08:49Alexa plays from behind.
08:50Going to make Nia Jax pay.
08:53And Lash Legend.
08:56Looking on.
08:57And Charlotte Flair.
08:58Up and over.
08:59Going to make Lash pay.
09:01Shoulders down again.
09:02Charlotte with the win.
09:06Here is your winner, Charlotte Flair!
09:19Not going to lie, after last week, it was nice to see Lash lose.
09:23Well, as long as we do that to every team every week
09:25and bring the tag team titles back.
09:32Are you guys talking about the tag team titles?
09:35No.
09:38Because you seem very confident.
09:41And I feel like I need to remind you that,
09:44you and I, we have a tag team championship match coming up.
09:48You do?
09:49Yeah.
09:49And once we win, they're going to stay with us.
09:53Okay, I don't think so.
09:54Why don't you count us out?
09:56The kind of bull crap you pulled out there.
09:58What happened to you?
09:59I don't think so.
10:00I don't think so.
10:05Stop!
10:09Hey, come on.
10:10Enough!
10:11Everybody stop!
10:12Enough!
10:15While adults here.
10:16All right.
10:17This chaos has gone far enough.
10:18So here's what we're gonna do.
10:20Next week on SmackDown in Buffalo, New York,
10:23you're gonna be in an eight woman tag team match.
10:25So you can all face off before your big tag title match on Raw in Brooklyn.
10:29Maybe that way, you can get this intense dislike for each other out of your system.
10:35It's a little bit more than intense fall.
10:42After months of betrayals, insults, and bloodthirst across the women's tag team division,
10:48an opportunity for all hell to break loose comes on Friday Night SmackDown.
10:53Rio, Alexa Bliss, and Charlotte Flair face off against Nia Jax, Flash Legend,
10:58and the current tag team champions, the Kabuki Warriors,
11:01in an eight-woman tag team match, certain to turn the ring into a war zone.
11:08Even in the midst of all the chaos, you can always count on Asuka to find time to gloat.
11:13After defeating Rhea Ripley two weeks ago, Asuka wanted to make it clear that mommy was no match for her,
11:19and if you thought she stood a chance, well, then you are just a stupid baby.
11:24Asuka's words, not mine.
11:26The Empress of Tomorrow went on to say that the outcome of the women's tag team championship match Monday on
11:31Raw
11:31will have the same outcome as their one-on-one match,
11:34but Rhea and Io just couldn't bear another word.
11:42They are the number one contenders for tag goal,
11:46but it looks like ahead of next week's showdown,
11:49we might get a little taste of what's to come.
11:53We've gotten a big taste of poison mist and insane elbows
11:57as the finally early part of the championship reign of the Kabuki Warriors.
12:01And now here we go, we're a week away from meeting up in Brooklyn,
12:08and Io and Rhea take the ring.
12:10Io moving a lot better than she was last week,
12:13and that's the ball for the Kabuki Warriors.
12:17What a throwdown, we're getting it ringside here.
12:20The Kabuki Warriors came down to talk trash,
12:23but now they are eating shots left, right, and center.
12:27Io!
12:29Io's back, right to the edge of our reinforced announce desk.
12:33Oh, watch your back, Jairi.
12:34Oh, big right hand from Mami.
12:37Right on the jaw.
12:38She checks.
12:40Oh!
12:42Asuka, right to work.
12:44This is a chance for the Kabuki Warriors to do some damage now,
12:48especially to Io, ahead of that showdown in seven days' time for the gold.
12:53Make your job that much easier.
12:56Oh, now it's just a beatdown of two-on-one
12:58as they throw Rhea back into the ring.
13:01The Kabuki Warriors just pummeling, pummeling Rhea Ripley.
13:06And it tells you what a mistake by next week's challenges
13:09to head out here and try and attack the Kabuki Warriors.
13:13Stay wrapped up in cotton wool until you're up at you.
13:16Oh, oh, oh!
13:18Io's back!
13:19Forget the insane elbow!
13:22Here's Io Sky!
13:23Io moving like a bolt of lightning,
13:26and this one has turned around in a hurry.
13:28The Kabuki Warriors getting smashed in that ring.
13:31She's got Riptide lined up!
13:34Oh, out the back door is Kairi Sane,
13:36but a big elbow from Ripley.
13:40Kabuki Warriors, the reigning tag champs,
13:43looking completely ragged.
13:45After that assault by Rhea Ripley and Io Sky.
13:55From Brooklyn, the women's tag team championship match,
14:01the Kabuki Warriors against Ripley and Io Sky.
14:08The stage is set for this battle,
14:11fueled by resentment and pride,
14:13with the Kabuki Warriors striving to prove
14:15that they are two competitors
14:17who are simply untouchable in the ring
14:19by putting an end to Rhea and Io
14:21just as soon as their new tag team is getting started.
14:25But there is no chance
14:27Asuka and Kairi's supremacy will go uncontested,
14:30because when it comes to the tag team titles,
14:33Rhea is not backing down.
14:41And Hayes now out to the apron,
14:43looking for a DDT,
14:44but Dragunov caught him.
14:46To still possess this type of power,
14:48this deep into a matchup,
14:50speaks volumes about the physical condition
14:52of Ilya Dragunov.
14:53What the hell is Dragunov going to do here?
14:55Hayes in desperation,
14:57delivering elbows to the jaw.
15:05Both men cruised, battered,
15:08but too proud to quit.
15:09Beating the hell out of each other.
15:12Dragunov now.
15:14No!
15:14Out of the apron!
15:17Hayes may be out!
15:23I'm not sure Carmelo Hayes has any idea
15:25where he is.
15:27Dragunov does, though.
15:28He's got Hayes in his sights.
15:30Dragunov from the top rope.
15:34First 48!
15:36First 48!
15:38Melo's got a chance!
15:40Melo's got a chance!
15:41He's gonna do it!
15:43Carmelo Hayes,
15:45nothing but net!
15:46The cover!
15:47Case closed!
15:51Case closed!
15:52Hayes is a champion!
15:54Here is your winner
15:55and the new
15:57United States champion,
16:05Carmelo Hayes!
16:08I've never quit and handled problems
16:10and I crush them all.
16:11Yeah!
16:12Shoulders use the whole weight
16:13and now I've got some more.
16:15All these muscles
16:15think they're tough
16:16until I come along.
16:18I've been in his head for years
16:19and I'm running strong.
16:20What a fighting champion
16:22Ilya Dragunov was!
16:24And what a tremendous show
16:26of sportsmanship!
16:33After Ilya Dragunov
16:35let the pain entertain us
16:37for seven intense
16:38United States championship defenses,
16:40Carmelo Hayes was the one
16:42to turn that pain into triumph.
16:43In a match with both competitors
16:45leaving everything in the ring,
16:47Hayes coming out on top
16:48shows beyond a shadow of a doubt
16:50why he is him.
16:52But Carmelo isn't the only one
16:54leaving the WWE universe stunned
16:56as the women's intercontinental champion
16:58Maxine Dupree's feud
16:59has brought out
17:00a whole new vicious side
17:01of the champ
17:02and a whole new
17:03holier-than-thou side
17:05of the challenger.
17:08Becky, choose your next move wisely
17:10because if I get a hold of that
17:13you've got two choices.
17:15A, and my personal favorite,
17:17I'll break it.
17:20Or B, B is still a good option.
17:24You submit again.
17:30Who's a moody Maxie?
17:32This is what I'm talking about.
17:33You're very, very moody.
17:35I, I didn't come out here to fight.
17:38I never start a fight
17:40although I do finish them.
17:45I, I, I came to give you
17:55credit.
17:57Okay.
17:58When, when I first saw you
18:00I thought you were awful, terrible.
18:02The worst thing that I've ever seen.
18:03Do you have a point?
18:05Yes.
18:07Over the last few weeks
18:09or months
18:10you've, you've
18:17you've
18:18you've gotten a tiny bit better
18:20and you were able to get away
18:21with stealing a title
18:22and that's not nothing.
18:24Becky, the only thing I stole
18:26from you is the spotlight.
18:30I earned this title
18:31and if you can't realize that
18:33I will make you realize it next week
18:35and you're not going to come out here
18:36and blame the ref
18:37and claim corruption.
18:39No, no, no.
18:40It'll be all me
18:41but I won't be the only one saying it.
18:44Everybody will be saying it.
18:46Hey, Sports Illustrated
18:47might even say it.
18:49And Becky Lynch
18:50you will say it.
18:52Maxine Dupree
18:54Intercontinental Champion.
19:00Listen to me
19:01you little pup.
19:02I came out here to be nice.
19:03Okay?
19:04Because I'm a very nice person.
19:06Okay?
19:07All right.
19:08But you think
19:09you think
19:09four weeks of training
19:11in a dungeon
19:12is going to make up
19:13for the lifetime
19:13that I've given
19:14to this business.
19:16I am a Royal Rumble winner.
19:18I am a Grand Slam champion.
19:20I won the main event
19:22of Wrestlemania.
19:22I am the greatest
19:23female wrestler of all time
19:25and it's not just me saying it.
19:27Sports Illustrated
19:28says it.
19:28Everybody says it.
19:29The Bleacher Report
19:30says it.
19:31Okay?
19:32And I didn't just get there
19:36because everything went my way.
19:37No, I climbed every mountain.
19:40I overcame every corruption
19:42and injustice perpetrated against me.
19:45Okay?
19:46And it is not over.
19:48It is never over until I win.
19:51And I always find a way to win.
19:56But you, you, you, you,
19:58you think you stole the spotlight.
19:59Well, in one week,
20:01in one week, Maxine,
20:03all eyes are going to be on you.
20:05And you've got to ask yourself,
20:07are you everything
20:09they think you are?
20:14Or are you going to be everything
20:16that I know you are?
20:19Welcome to the big time.
20:27The fuse is lit
20:28for an explosive rematch
20:29between Becky Lynch
20:30and Maxine Dupree
20:31with the Women's Intercontinental Championship
20:33on the line Monday on Raw.
20:35A Becky Lynch
20:37with an unbreakable determination
20:38to put the rookie in her place
20:40is a dangerous Becky Lynch.
20:42But with such a massive opportunity
20:44for Maxine to take down
20:46a seasoned veteran,
20:47will the burden of expectation
20:48become too much for Dupree?
20:50Or will she beat the odds?
20:57On the final Monday Night Raw of 2025,
21:00Stephanie Vaquer defended
21:02her Women's World title
21:03against Raquel Rodriguez
21:04and WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella.
21:07All three of these superstars
21:09have a bone to pick
21:10with one another
21:10and it all goes back
21:12to Survivor Series.
21:13Nikki Bella was inconsolable
21:15after her loss in San Diego
21:16to Stephanie
21:17and refused to go
21:18to the back of the line.
21:20Instead, Bella decided
21:21to interfere
21:22in Stephanie's championship match
21:24against Raquel Rodriguez
21:25a few weeks later
21:26to remind Stephanie
21:27that Nikki wasn't going anywhere.
21:30And while it seemed
21:30that Bella successfully
21:32turned Stephanie's attention
21:33back to the Hall of Famer,
21:35Raquel Rodriguez
21:36wasn't going to go away quietly.
21:38So the champ took matters
21:40into her own hands,
21:41demanding both
21:42at the same time
21:43in a triple threat match
21:44for the Women's World Championship.
21:48Stephanie Vaquer
21:48trying to rally here
21:49and create some momentum
21:50with offense.
21:56Oh, Raquel denying it.
21:57Well, Raquel just a momentum
21:59stopper in her own right.
22:02Oh!
22:03Oh, whoa!
22:03How about it right here?
22:05To attack!
22:05No, Raquel Rodriguez
22:07able to get that shoulder
22:08up at two and change.
22:09Raquel trying her best
22:10to deadlift,
22:12power up Vaquer
22:13into a vertical suplex,
22:15but fell victim
22:17to that trap
22:17of a small package.
22:19And this one
22:20is anybody's guess
22:21at this point, Joe.
22:25All three women
22:26have massive opportunities
22:27to put this to bed.
22:29All three women
22:30bringing their A game.
22:33Oh, she's putting her
22:34in the target zone here.
22:35She's lining her up.
22:37That's what I made her
22:38this time.
22:39Doesn't go her way.
22:40Meanwhile,
22:40Nikki Bella's right back
22:41in the mix of it.
22:42Nikki Bella pin
22:43in combination
22:44to try to take gold.
22:47She's had a little difficulty
22:48manipulating the frame
22:50of Raquel there
22:51for that pin
22:52and it proved pivotal.
22:55Just in the nick of time,
22:56Raquel kicking out there.
22:59Was that the final chance
23:00for Nikki Bella
23:01to win this thing?
23:02No compromise position
23:04right here for Vaquer.
23:07Oh, are you kidding me?
23:09Raquel Rodriguez.
23:11How about a two for one?
23:14It's time to that
23:14double to Hanabom.
23:16We only get a single.
23:17Oh, watch out, Raquel.
23:18Oh, she went for the roll-up
23:19and instead out of the ring.
23:21Meanwhile, back in the ring.
23:22That is how Vaquer retains.
23:25Here is your winner
23:27and still
23:29the women's
23:31world champion
23:33Stephanie
23:37bird care.
23:50What the hell are you doing?
23:54I wanted you to know
23:56why I was wearing the mask.
23:59I wanted everybody
24:01to fill my actions
24:03before they saw my face.
24:05And I've made some bad decisions.
24:07I got comfortable.
24:09I got injured.
24:11But then I saw the vision.
24:14You didn't wait for anything.
24:16You took.
24:17And that's me now.
24:19I take.
24:20And I know the vision's
24:21got a match tonight.
24:22And I'd love to take
24:23that opportunity
24:24and help out.
24:26Very interesting.
24:29Austin Theory
24:30now wants another chance
24:32to prove himself
24:33worthy of the vision.
24:38Austin Theory
24:39might be a missing piece
24:40in the vision.
24:42Austin Theory
24:49a stomp
24:51by Theory
24:52a cover
24:53on Rey
24:54and a win
24:55by the vision.
24:58I'd say Austin Theory
24:59nailed his audition.
25:08Stam!
25:14The rumors are true.
25:17Ladies and gentlemen,
25:19the newest member
25:21of the vision
25:29is Austin Theory.
25:41Earn your keep,
25:42young man.
25:44They're all yours.
25:55I have waited
25:57my entire life
25:59for this moment.
26:05I have worked
26:07my entire career
26:09for this moment.
26:17A wise man,
26:20can you educate me
26:23on this part again?
26:24Yes, sir.
26:25The goals
26:26of the vision
26:28outweigh
26:29the individual needs
26:30of any exclusive athlete
26:33inside of the group.
26:36The goal!
26:37The goal!
26:39The goal!
26:49Well,
26:49your first mistake
26:50is assuming
26:51that you know
26:52what I think of you.
26:53You think
26:53I was going to
26:54come out here
26:55and tell you
26:56that you're not ready?
26:57When your entire life
26:59you've been told
27:00you're ready
27:00and you're prepared?
27:02Brother,
27:02you're more ready
27:03than anybody
27:04I've ever seen.
27:05You're more ready
27:05than anybody
27:06back there.
27:07You're more ready
27:08than anybody else
27:09in the vision.
27:11There's one problem,
27:13Braun.
27:14I'm not ready.
27:17You want what I got?
27:22Pick it up.
27:27It's a lot heavier
27:28than you think
27:29and I'm not just
27:30talking about
27:30the physical weight.
27:31It is a privilege
27:33to carry the strap
27:35and it's something
27:36that I've earned
27:36and I'm not ready
27:38to let it go.
27:42I'm not ready
27:44to stop coming
27:46into sold-out arenas
27:47nationwide
27:48and getting
27:50the privilege
27:50to say
27:51is it good
27:53to be alive
27:54on a Monday night
27:56in Orlando,
27:57Florida
27:57or what?
28:05I'm not ready
28:07to stop being champion.
28:09You're big,
28:10you're bad,
28:12you're strong,
28:13you're tough,
28:14you're fast.
28:14you got what it takes
28:17but you're right,
28:18we're not the same
28:19because one of us
28:21is CM Punk.
28:27Someday I'm not
28:28going to wake up
28:28but that wasn't today.
28:30Someday I'm going
28:31to run out of row
28:32but it's not January 5th
28:33and someday
28:35somebody is going
28:36to beat me for this
28:38but it ain't going
28:39to be you.
28:43I'll see you
28:44January 5th.
28:49The whole world
28:50will see that dance.
28:51One of us
28:52is CM Punk
28:53and that one
28:53just put the other
28:54on blast.
28:57In one corner,
28:58the mad dog
28:59Braun Breaker
29:00is biting
29:00at the chance
29:01to earn the world
29:02heavyweight title
29:03and in the other,
29:04the best in the world
29:05CM Punk
29:06is not ready
29:06to relinquish
29:07his championship
29:08to anyone.
29:09Tensions are at
29:10an all-time high
29:11before the bell rings
29:13on this explosive rivalry.
29:18The Vision
29:18has been quite busy
29:20after the reveal
29:21of Austin Theory
29:21as the masked man.
29:23Whether it's
29:23the tag team match
29:24two weeks ago
29:25or last Monday
29:26when Paul Heyman
29:27announced that
29:28Austin Theory
29:28is the newest member
29:29of The Vision,
29:30it seems that
29:31with each passing week
29:32The Vision is on
29:33to the next big thing.
29:35However,
29:36the same can't be said
29:37for WWE Hall of Famer
29:39Rey Mysterio
29:40who is still
29:40very mad
29:42about Austin Theory
29:43interfering in his match
29:44against Logan Paul
29:45not once
29:46but twice.
29:47So,
29:48Rey was out
29:48to teach Theory
29:49a lesson
29:50the best way
29:50he knows how.
29:51But with Logan Paul
29:52ringside,
29:53it wasn't long
29:54before Mysterio
29:54was going to need
29:55some backup
29:56of his own.
29:57of his own.
29:58I'm just tying Theory
30:03up a notch here.
30:05Oh,
30:05could this be?
30:06The 619 opportunity
30:07is delivered on!
30:09Oh,
30:10God,
30:10this is not sound
30:11and Logan Paul!
30:13Oh,
30:14Logan Paul!
30:16And the bell rings
30:18as Logan Paul
30:21interferes with the match
30:22just when Mysterio
30:24had it in place.
30:26It was never about
30:26the match,
30:27Joe Test.
30:28This was a bonding session
30:29as Paul Heyman put it.
30:31A chance
30:32to grow those bonds
30:34with the newest member
30:35of the tournament.
30:36This is why Punk said
30:37Whoa!
30:38No!
30:38Whoa!
30:42He's back!
30:46PENTA's back!
30:48Well,
30:49this is exactly
30:50why Rey Mysterio
30:51said,
30:52I got some connections.
30:53Don't worry,
30:54Punk.
30:54PENTA,
30:55who we haven't seen
30:56since he got injured
30:57in the last time
30:58is now tournament.
31:00He had to stick up
31:01for his go-to-body
31:02just in the nick of time.
31:04Oh,
31:05all the reports
31:05of the shoulder
31:06injury belt.
31:07Did you see that?
31:08I did.
31:10Logan Paul!
31:11How about a 6-1-9
31:13for you?
31:14And look out!
31:16PENTA clears him.
31:18Oh,
31:19it is so good
31:20to have PENTA
31:21back here
31:21on Raw.

40:16together
40:18let's get at it
40:19i love you
40:20back at you
40:24jimmy did his best to hype up his twin
40:26but whether the brothers were on the same page
40:29remain to be seen
40:30for the usos
40:31there was only one way to prove they are back on top
40:34by becoming nine time tag team champions
40:36but the brothers haven't seen the top of the mountain for a while
40:40two years and nine months to be exact
40:42and the men who were at the top of that mountain
40:45going into the world tag team title match last monday
40:47aj styles and dragon lee
40:49they've proven that they're fighting champions
40:51and they wouldn't go down easy
40:53so if the usos wanted to reclaim their former glory
40:56they are going to have to pull out all the stops
41:07you can see big jim reaching
41:09for his ribs there as he comes over
41:11you saw
41:12the drop in the spirits of jay uso
41:15have our powers wading
41:16he got a little pep talk in the corner there
41:18on that tag
41:19from brother jimmy
41:20and it took a beat too long
41:22because back in the fight now
41:24is dragon lee
41:26you can see that was exactly where the usos
41:29were looking for that double splash perhaps
41:31but things have changed in a big way
41:33since dragon lee
41:34dragon lee's revving it out
41:35oh my
41:37he just launched himself all the way
41:40over our desk and took out big jim
41:44an absolute kamikaze dive there from dragon lee
41:48who may have maimed himself in the process
41:50big jim looks absolutely wasted here
41:53on our announce desk
41:56oh there's a roll of the town
41:57look at this
41:59jay survives it
42:00did you see the distance that was covered by lee
42:03meanwhile
42:04back in the center of the ring
42:05back and forth they go
42:07styles
42:08and main event jay
42:11oh styles clash being lined up
42:13and he hits it
42:14he hits it
42:15he hits it
42:18jay survives
42:19jay survives
42:21this is outrageous
42:22both teams and noah wiles is losing his mind at ringside too
42:28but both teams dropping the heaviest of artillery
42:32absolute psycho behavior though from dragon lee
42:35devastating effectiveness
42:37but this is the moment surely the champs were going to retain jay lusso dig about as deep as he's
42:46ever digged in his career to kick out why
42:49styles is in disbelief
42:51in absolute disbelief the pele kick the styles clash and still they fight on in front of this massive crowd
43:00for the world tag team championship
43:03both teams have had their moments of despair in this one but from despair to where
43:08the answer for the tag champs is perhaps incoming now and with big jim down and out jay lusso left
43:27the eight-time world champion usos have no quit in them
43:33it's beaten to the plunge now once again by aj styles who now has the momentum
43:39phenomenal forearm is in
43:46stereo super kick
43:50they want it
43:52they get it
43:54the usos
43:58they did it
44:00number nine is mighty five
44:03here are your winners
44:06the new world tag team champions
44:15the usos
44:182025 goes out with a one day championship bang on top of the world again baron
44:31oh god what a match the final five minutes of that one swung all over the place
44:38but the statistically greatest tag team in history just got statistically even greater with number nine
44:47welcome back to the mountaintop a place the usos call home
44:53and that moment right there considering what we heard earlier tonight
44:57big jim lifting up and bringing out the best from one of the best
45:03his brother jay
45:06look at this scene to close out the year on raw
45:13jimmy and jay will be ringing in 2026 adorned in gold as world tag team champions
45:18the usos are back on top and have proven to be a united force to be reckoned with
45:23while we all yeet our way into the new year
45:25this week carries several golden opportunities of its own
45:29io sky and rhea ripley make their best attempt at dethroning the reigning women's tag team champions the kabuki warriors
45:35while becky lynch looks to do the same to maxine dupree and her intercontinental title
45:40that is if jessica carr stays out of the man's way and in his biggest title defense to date
45:47cm punk puts the world heavyweight championship up against brawn breaker
45:51who kicks off 2026 with some new hardware
45:55we're gonna find out monday night a raw i surely won't be missing out on
