00:00Hailing from Sydney, Australia, she is the very tallest, and I'm a normal-sized human being. I am 5'1".
00:12Steph DeLander!
00:17Steph DeLander!
00:20So intimidating here to go up against Erica Damia.
00:27Her face is shining.
00:29Yeah, literally a tall test here for Erica.
00:33Is she getting a microphone? That's my thing.
00:45DeLander!
00:46Oh, she gets a microphone. Is this a joke?
00:48She's demanding a microphone.
00:49You are on commentary, Maddie. You can say whatever you want for as long as you want to.
00:54I didn't get a microphone in my match. I'm pissed.
00:57Last year, Mania Week, I didn't get to wrestle. I was on the shelf. I was injured.
01:08Oh, boo-hoo.
01:08But this year, I am right here in this ring doing what I do best.
01:21Hey, Gabe, take notes of this one.
01:24Oh.
01:27I am going to beat this stupid anime bitch.
01:37You know, some people have it. Some people try to have it.
01:43I don't know about that one.
01:44SDL talking trash, but Erica, to her credit, does not seem intimidated, but it is DeLander clearly with the strength
01:53advantage.
01:56Oh, and disrespectful.
01:57Disrespectful, yeah.
01:59Yeah.
01:59Disrespectful.
02:00She says, okay, ha-ha.
02:02Try again.
02:06Takes the waist.
02:08Does DeLander, but look at this Erica.
02:11Got a wrist lock cinched on.
02:13Oh.
02:17All right.
02:21And I think maybe SDL underestimated Erica Damia here.
02:28Erica.
02:29Oh.
02:30And now, with the headlock.
02:39Boo.
02:43DeLander.
02:44Nothing but confidence here.
02:48Oh.
02:48Charges in.
02:49Whoa.
02:51Impressive here by Erica.
03:03Whoa.
03:04DeLander, though, won't go.
03:06Up and over goes Erica.
03:09Ducks through.
03:11And a palm strike sends DeLander to the outside.
03:16And DeLander.
03:20This is what I'm saying, Maddie.
03:22I think she underestimated Erica Damia.
03:24Me too, me too.
03:25She's walking around.
03:27Catching her breath.
03:28Getting her thoughts together.
03:33Oh, gosh.
03:34Oh, no.
03:34Oh, no.
03:35I'm telling you, Veda, that is concrete.
03:37I would not want to be up there.
03:40Whoa.
03:41And the ring apron is not much softer.
03:46Oh.
03:46She told us exactly what to do.
03:50I will be not partaking in that.
03:52Erica's holding on to her nose.
03:55I mean, that could be a broken nose crashing into the apron like that.
04:00And DeLander is relentless.
04:07Oh, crap.
04:10Massive chop.
04:11Steph breaks the count and slides back outside.
04:13Yeah, she intends to keep this match.
04:16On the outside.
04:23Oh, no.
04:25Erica turns it around.
04:28One more.
04:29Oh.
04:31SDL.
04:32Back in control.
04:35Get on.
04:37Got on.
04:38Do I sound Australian?
04:41Oh.
04:42Taking it again.
04:44To Erica.
04:46SDL.
04:47When she is in control.
04:48Is so dominant.
04:50Look at the snap on that suplex.
04:52As she makes the cover.
04:56So why do you keep saying?
05:03Erica trying to use the ropes.
05:05Even stand back up.
05:12You know, you think as elite commentators, they would give us some water.
05:18Oh, Maddie, can't you get some water?
05:20Oh, here we go.
05:21Cover.
05:22Can't you get some water flown in like on a drone or something like that?
05:25Don't you have that capacity?
05:26You are very rich.
05:30Here it comes.
05:33SDL.
05:34Whoa.
05:35Just got caught by Erica.
05:38Every time Erica has an opening, she takes it.
05:43Steph turns that around, though.
05:47Oh.
05:49DeLander.
05:51High.
05:52Boot through the face.
05:58And tosses.
05:59Erica across the ring.
06:01Steph DeLander hooked the leg.
06:04And whoa.
06:05And Maddie.
06:06There's a smile on the face of Steph DeLander.
06:08She made that cover.
06:09She thought for sure it was over.
06:11She's feeling confident.
06:12I'll tell you that.
06:14But Erica Damia trapped in a deep chin lock here.
06:27Well, again, connecting with some body strikes.
06:29And again, DeLander turns it around.
06:32Oh, come on, Steph.
06:36Disrespectful pinfall.
06:48Shot after shot by DeLander.
06:52She's taking advantage of her five count.
06:54This is what you said we should do, Maddie.
06:56This is, that was your advice before.
07:00Whoa.
07:01But now DeLander got caught twice in a row.
07:09Oh, out of the way goes Erica so quick.
07:13Ooh.
07:15Woo.
07:19Maddie, I didn't take you for an anime nerd at all.
07:22I'm not.
07:23I'm not.
07:24Get that very clear.
07:25I, it's a catchy word, Veda.
07:28Whoa.
07:29And Steph DeLander just got caught on the chin by Erica.
07:36Oh.
07:38Again.
07:39Defeat.
07:40She going for another one?
07:41No.
07:41This time, cross-arm neck breaker.
07:44Oh, that's it.
07:46Whoa.
07:48Very, very close there.
07:50But DeLander is still in the match.
07:52She's thinking about a lot of decisions right now.
07:57Meanwhile, Erica Damia dragging DeLander back up.
08:04Full Nelson cinched on.
08:07Whoa.
08:08That was smart.
08:09Yeah, to use the ropes as a weapon.
08:19Whoa.
08:23Wait a second.
08:24DeLander just got caught.
08:26Look at that.
08:27Oh, she said psych.
08:29Oh.
08:32Two.
08:33And again, Erica kicks out.
08:36And look at Steph DeLander's face.
08:39She certainly underestimated her opponent here tonight.
08:42She thought this was going to be an easy fight.
08:44It is anything but.
08:47Up on the shoulders goes Erica.
08:50But look at, she is still fighting, Maddie.
08:53She's ID'd for a reason.
08:56Oh, wow.
08:57The crack across the face of DeLander.
09:04Now, what is this?
09:06Muscling Steph up to the top.
09:08Tucking the head.
09:10Ah.
09:13And DeLander collapsing to the canvas.
09:17Two.
09:19Whoa.
09:20I thought for sure SDL was out right there.
09:24It is WrestleMania weekend.
09:25They are really going hard.
09:27Oh, absolutely.
09:28This has been non-stop violence.
09:31But look at this.
09:32Whoa.
09:35Boom through the face.
09:39And now back up on the shoulders.
09:44DeLander drops.
09:45Erica gets the cover.
09:48And a massive victory.
09:51Here is your winner.
09:52You know, she did tell us at the beginning what she was going to do.
09:56Steph DeLander.
09:59Like Steph DeLander said, last year she was out.
10:03She was injured.
10:04She wasn't here to compete.
10:06And she is making up for lost time.
10:08And letting everyone know that SDL is back.
10:12Like she never left.
10:16And as always, impressed with Anna Damien.
10:19There is a reason why she has had so much success recently.
10:22But today, it's SDL.
10:24Bye.
