00:04:24WrestleMania is in Las Vegas tonight.
00:04:27This is WrestleMania Saturday at Allegiant Stadium.
00:04:30But we are not done tonight.
00:04:32This is a two-night event.
00:04:34Tomorrow, WrestleMania Sunday.
00:04:36The first hour will be on ESPN for the first time ever.
00:04:40It will kick off with Brock Lesnar versus Ova Femi.
00:04:44The rest of the night takes place on the ESPN app with the unlimited plan.
00:04:49And the main event will be the world champion CM Punk versus Roman Reigns.
00:04:54It's been a long and winding road for the Second City Saint.
00:04:58His wrestling debut, LWF 1997.
00:05:01His journey through the Indies would continue.
00:05:03Mid-American wrestling.
00:05:05Then off to St. Paul Championship Wrestling.
00:05:07He would find his feet in Ring of Honor two decades ago.
00:05:11Then his dream would come true.
00:05:1220 years ago.
00:05:14His WWE debut in the reborn ECW.
00:05:17Then he would win his first world championship in 2008.
00:05:21The famous controversial pipe bomb in 2011.
00:05:242014.
00:05:25He would leave WWE for nearly a decade before the improbable return in 2023.
00:05:31And now, Reigns as the world champion to face Roman Reigns tomorrow night.
00:05:44Fight me.
00:05:48I feel like bad decisions, but you still wanna write.
00:05:55I feel like bad decisions, but you still wanna write.
00:06:03Trouble, trouble, that's me.
00:06:07Cheer it in, it's too bad in a day.
00:06:10To say one, six, twice, and I'll give it to you all night.
00:06:14I'm your bad, bad, your bad advice.
00:06:19Fight me.
00:06:20Say my name like it's a secret.
00:06:23Say it low and say it loud.
00:06:25Try to frame me as the problem like I don't enjoy it now.
00:06:28You aren't sweet.
00:06:29You aren't careful.
00:06:30You aren't safe behind the eyes.
00:06:32But I flirt with every danger and I'm gonna apologize.
00:06:38Fight me.
00:06:44All your eyes are on me lately.
00:06:47Do I make you uncomfortable?
00:06:51I'm the fault that you shouldn't vanish.
00:06:55I'm listening to you, but you can't confess.
00:06:59Trouble, trouble, that's me.
00:07:02Cheer it in, it's too bad in a day.
00:07:05To say one, six, twice, and I'll give it to you all night.
00:07:09I'm your bad, bad, your bad advice.
00:07:13I feel like bad decisions, but you still wanna fight.
00:07:20I was never felt to bend.
00:07:22If you push, I push it further.
00:07:24Baby, watch who you offend.
00:07:25Yeah, you'll be looking in the mirror.
00:07:27I was made in your mouth, not choke on every word.
00:07:31I was never what you wanted.
00:07:33I'm just what you deserve.
00:07:36All your eyes are on me lately.
00:07:39Do I make you uncomfortable?
00:07:43I'm the fault that you shouldn't vanish.
00:07:46I'm listening to you, but you can't confess.
00:07:50Trouble, trouble, that's me.
00:07:54Cheer it in, it's too bad in a day.
00:07:57To say one, six, twice, and I'll give it to you all night.
00:08:01I'm your bad, bad, your bad advice.
00:08:05Trouble, trouble, that's me.
00:08:09Cheer it in, it's too bad in a day.
00:08:12To say one, six, twice, and I'll give it to you all night.
00:08:16I'm your bad, bad, your bad advice.
00:08:46.
00:08:46You're, bad, bad.
00:08:49ー
00:08:49.
00:08:49.
00:09:49First time ever, a match that has become so personal.
00:09:53Just look at the face of Lynn Morgan.
00:09:55The bruises still on display after an attack a couple of weeks ago.
00:10:00Morgan winning the Royal Rumble this year after being the bridesmaid a couple of times.
00:10:06Earned this opportunity, chose Stephanie Vakera, and here we are tonight.
00:10:35She won the title in September at Wrestlepalooza tonight.
00:10:40She defends.
00:10:42And the Women's World Championship match is brought to you by Fortnite.
00:10:47Lynn Morgan and Stone Cold Steve Austin just crouched the biggest rivalry in Battle Royal.
00:10:53Team Foundation versus Team Ice King.
00:10:55Time to settle the score.
00:10:57Available now in the Fortnite item shop.
00:11:06Wouldn't be WrestleMania without the great Alicia Taylor.
00:11:13The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:11:18And it is for the Women's World Championship.
00:11:28Introducing first the challenger from Elmwood Park, New Jersey, Liv Morgan.
00:11:45And her opponent from San Fernando, Chile.
00:11:51Today, she is the Women's World Champion, Stephanie Vakera.
00:12:05You are looking at two of the biggest stars in our industry today.
00:12:10Stephanie Vakera, Liv Morgan could not have had more opposite upbringings.
00:12:15A more opposite pathway to get to this moment in their careers.
00:12:22The official Eddie Arengo will be the referee for this match tonight.
00:12:27And I'll tell you right now what Stephanie Vakera has done since arriving in WWE has been absolutely incredible.
00:12:35The past two years has just been a long victory streak.
00:12:39She's been amazing.
00:12:40How has she done it?
00:12:41By being calm and composed.
00:12:43The master stroke of Liv Morgan leading into this match is she's turned highly emotional.
00:12:49And can Stephanie Vakera compete with that considering Liv Morgan is a woman who thrives in chaos.
00:12:56And as you can see, the way this matchup starts, no love lost between these two women, Morgan and Vakera.
00:13:01And Stephanie going to chase Liv outside the ring.
00:13:03Now, here's my question for you.
00:13:05Stephanie's been focused on this match for weeks and weeks and weeks.
00:13:08Liv Morgan has to an extent, but she's off film and music videos, cutting that brand new song Trouble.
00:13:14Do you think her head's here or elsewhere?
00:13:15No, absolutely not.
00:13:16I think her head is right where it should be.
00:13:19She had one of the greatest 2024s of anybody.
00:13:232025 was wiped out by injury.
00:13:25Liv Morgan came back for one reason, to get back to the very top.
00:13:29Did the right thing in January.
00:13:31Won the Royal Rumble.
00:13:32Now is the time to finish the job.
00:13:34And Morgan, a two-time world champion.
00:13:36Hasn't had great success at Mania over her career, but hopes to change that tonight.
00:13:41Off the ropes, turns it into a power bar.
00:13:43Stacks up the champ now.
00:13:44And Stephanie kicks out at two.
00:13:46Yeah, Liv Morgan's a woman who's been looked down upon by some quarters through her path of her career.
00:13:52Never quite considered at that top echelon.
00:13:55That changed in a big way over the past couple of years.
00:13:57And even to this day, Vakera isn't quite giving her the credit.
00:14:01I believe Liv Morgan deserves.
00:14:03Well, Stephanie extremely confident.
00:14:04And there's a reason she's not been pinned or submitted since coming to the main roster.
00:14:09Liv Morgan, nice suplex.
00:14:11And again, her boyfriend, Dirty Dominic Mysterio.
00:14:14And they both use this move.
00:14:15The three amigos made famous by the late, great Eddie Guerrero.
00:14:20He's so influential to the career of Dominic Mysterio.
00:14:23Liv Morgan now finds herself in control.
00:14:28What does Liv have to do to win the title tonight?
00:14:30That's to keep the pressure on Stephanie Vakera at all times.
00:14:34We know full well that Stephanie Vakera with a win in her sails only ever leads to victory.
00:14:39And Liv Morgan has to be acutely aware of getting the upper hand, which he has, finishing the job.
00:14:44Liv now from high above the ring.
00:14:46Top rope went for the frog splash.
00:14:48And there you go.
00:14:49It was that beat on top of the turnbuckle that Liv Morgan doesn't normally pull off.
00:14:55That one moment was all the care needed.
00:14:57And here's your favorite move, Michael Cole.
00:15:01It's bookies, by the way.
00:15:03And yours.
00:15:04Don't lie.
00:15:04Don't get shy now.
00:15:05And now Stephanie is going to turn into the devil's kiss on Liv Morgan.
00:15:12And you would be wise to stay quiet.
00:15:20It doesn't seem like the pressure of the first WrestleMania has been getting to Stephanie at all here.
00:15:26Oh, knees right to the jaw.
00:15:28That was beautiful.
00:15:29Cover by Stephanie Vakera.
00:15:31And a kick out by Morgan.
00:15:35And you're right.
00:15:36The pressure just doesn't get to Vakera.
00:15:38That has been true of day one since she arrived in NXT a couple of years ago on a crash
00:15:44course all the way to the NXT Championship.
00:15:47And that momentum never slowed.
00:15:49And here we go, Cole.
00:15:50Oh, nice reversal there from Liv Morgan.
00:15:53And Morgan now with a backstab.
00:15:59Vakera might have been looking for that SVP at one point there.
00:16:03But quickly turning around, acutely aware of the danger of that particular move was Morgan.
00:16:09And again, Liv Morgan.
00:16:10Oh, hold on.
00:16:11What's going on here, Cole?
00:16:14Hold on.
00:16:15It looked like she was going to go for devil's kiss.
00:16:17And almost got caught.
00:16:18And that's the problem.
00:16:19You get a little too cocky in there with a world champ like Stephanie Vakera.
00:16:23You're going to get into problems.
00:16:24Now Stephanie with Liv on.
00:16:28Isn't it enough to retain the championship?
00:16:31Knee to the small, the back, forcing Morgan to kick out.
00:16:34And just about kicking out there and living incredibly dangerously here is Liv Morgan.
00:16:40And things are going completely off the rails.
00:16:44Double underhug with the knee blasted into the back of the neck.
00:16:48That has done so much damage to all opponents throughout the career of Vakera.
00:16:53And somehow Liv Morgan is alive in this one.
00:16:57But only just.
00:16:59Vakera is also dragging at this point too.
00:17:02Because you can pick up the pace here.
00:17:04But no.
00:17:05Code breaker by Morgan.
00:17:08Dropping Vakera back toward the rope.
00:17:09Stephanie though, able to roll through.
00:17:11Perhaps playing possum.
00:17:12I don't think Liv.
00:17:13Got all of it.
00:17:13Oblivion.
00:17:14Stephanie just hit Liv with her own move.
00:17:17Oblivion.
00:17:17Into the cover.
00:17:18Hooks both legs.
00:17:19And Morgan's got to kick out.
00:17:21Well, what a major statement it would have been for Vakera.
00:17:24Putting Liv Morgan away with her own specialized move.
00:17:29The Oblivion.
00:17:30But it was not to be.
00:17:32And now is this a crisis starting to stir up in the mind of La Primera.
00:17:36Exactly.
00:17:37But mentally, this could screw up Morgan as well.
00:17:40Getting hit by her own move, the Oblivion.
00:17:42Well, Matt, Morgan's barely got anything in in the past couple of minutes in here.
00:17:45And she's been hit with some major, major offense from La Primera.
00:17:49Who looks like she's up.
00:17:49Up to the top rope.
00:17:51That's Roxanne Perez.
00:17:52But not a moment too soon.
00:17:53Giving it to Vakera.
00:17:54Purched perhaps for the Vakera Inferno is what she calls it.
00:17:58And now Vakera Rodriguez getting involved.
00:18:00The numbers game from the Judgment Day.
00:18:03Morgan, Oblivion.
00:18:05Cover by Liv.
00:18:08Stephanie kicks out.
00:18:11Well, that was the game plan.
00:18:12If things go wrong, hit the ring.
00:18:15Help me out.
00:18:16Roxanne with the distract.
00:18:17The damage caused by the massive Raquel.
00:18:20But somehow Vakera still lives on here.
00:18:23And this is where it looked like it had gone south for La Primera.
00:18:27Draped over the top rope.
00:18:29Followed up quickly with Oblivion.
00:18:31Referee absolutely clueless to what just went down.
00:18:35And that was a late kick out, but a kick out all the same.
00:18:38And now if you're late, what do you do?
00:18:39You just hit your finishing move.
00:18:41Couldn't put Stephanie Vakera away.
00:18:42Well, it's clearly going for a second by the charity.
00:18:44Oh, come on.
00:18:45The official's got to do something about this.
00:18:47Judgment Day is just swarming all over the place out here.
00:18:50Well, that's always been the playbook of the Judgment Day.
00:18:53La Primera was clearly ready for it.
00:18:56Oh, no.
00:18:58Looked like she was setting up for Oblivion.
00:19:00Ended up going through the ropes and taking out her Judgment Day colleagues.
00:19:03Almost a sixth sense there from Stephanie Vakera.
00:19:07Wait up!
00:19:08Big cross body from the top rope.
00:19:11Morgan, though, was able to escape.
00:19:13Well, took out the two miscreants on the outside.
00:19:16Oh, no.
00:19:17And Morgan driving Vakera into the steps.
00:19:20No distraction.
00:19:21Sometimes that is all it needs.
00:19:25All right, look at the codebreaker from the second rope.
00:19:29Stephanie in trouble.
00:19:30Morgan now oblivion for a second time.
00:19:34Cover.
00:19:34One, two, three.
00:19:35Liv Morgan wins the championship.
00:19:39Here is your winner and new women's world champion, Liv Morgan.
00:19:52And the man who faces the demon tomorrow, Dirty Dominic Mysterio, comes out to celebrate.
00:20:00And the greatest love story of our time continues.
00:20:06What a celebration it is going to be tonight in Sin City for these two.
00:20:10Don't party too hard, Dom.
00:20:12Don't burn off all your energy this evening.
00:20:14You'll need some of that tomorrow when you take on the demon Finn Balor.
00:20:18But for now, it is party time in the clubhouse.
00:20:21But what a champion Stephanie Vakera was.
00:20:25And this ended up being a three-on-one match, Wade.
00:20:28I mean, very little chance at this point.
00:20:30It looked like, miraculously, Stephanie Vakera was going to pull it out again.
00:20:35So many distractions on the outside.
00:20:38And this was one too many for the now former champ after her first reign comes to a close.
00:20:44What oblivion right here.
00:20:47And Liv Morgan is back where she belongs.
00:20:50Right at the very business end of the women's division, your new world champ.
00:20:56Liv Morgan as world champion is going to cause a lot of trouble on Monday Night Raw.
00:21:04The Judgment Day in full force.
00:21:08Wade stands into the theme song.
00:21:10Dominic Doll smiles.
00:21:11Hey, Doc, don't forget, you got the demon tomorrow.
00:21:16I told you, I'm the greatest women's world champion of all time.
00:21:30Well, hey, bring them all the action.
00:21:33With all new LJN WWE Superstars vintage style action figure.
00:21:38Wave 2 features some of the all-time greats of WWE, including King Kong Bundy, along with the Hall of
00:21:44Famers, the Ultimate Warrior, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and Jesse the Body Matura.
00:21:49Look for these figures beginning April 26th at Target in the United States.
00:21:57Hey, Wade, now we're talking.
00:22:00WrestleMania is brought to you by Mad Dogs by MD 2020.
00:22:04Flavor that hits hard at 15% alcohol.
00:22:07Find it in an alcohol retailer near you.
00:22:10Yes, please.
00:22:14So, again, ladies and gentlemen, despite what you think about Liv Morgan, despite what you think about the Judgment Day,
00:22:20congratulations.
00:22:20She earned this by winning the Royal Rumble at nearly 45 minutes this past couple months ago.
00:22:27Yeah, it tells you exactly how vital it is to earn opportunities for yourself here in WWE.
00:22:33Liv did that, and she converted tonight.
00:22:35New World Champ.
00:22:36Congrats, Liv, and the Judgment Day.
00:22:37And you can't take anything away from Stephanie Baccaro.
00:22:40What an unbelievable champion she was.
00:22:43And it's always hard when you come into WWE.
00:22:45It's not your native language here.
00:22:47It's not your native culture.
00:22:48She has been absolutely stunningly good for two straight years.
00:22:52She will be back to the top eventually.
00:22:55Congrats to you on that, Ryan.
00:22:56And still to come tonight, and just moments away from this, it is our main event.
00:23:00Cody Rhodes, the American Nightmare, in a match that has been building for 20 years.
00:23:05Defends the undisputed WWE Championship against the Viper, Randy Orton.
00:23:10What role, if any, will Pat McAfee play in all this?
00:23:14The Viper Rhodes for the undisputed WWE title.
00:23:19We are moments away from WrestleMania Saturday's main event here in Las Vegas.
00:23:40Night one WrestleMania.
00:23:43What an amazing evening it's been so far.
00:23:50As your host, I have the luxury of announcing tonight's attendance.
00:24:01There has been a lot of speculation on what it might be.
00:24:08Vegas is the perfect city, and I would have bet the over.
00:24:14I look around, and there are people everywhere.
00:24:22I am proud to announce tonight's official attendance, 50,816 people.
00:24:36Las Vegas and those around the world, thank you so much.

00:25:57to see what Bianca Belair has up her sleeve.
00:26:19I never needed you at all.

00:26:29The pressure's beating you, I will never fall.
00:26:32They said, I'm trying, they hear your voice.
00:26:35They would say it no way better than before.
00:26:38I needed you at all.
00:26:54Now you know you can't spell WrestleMania without E-S-T.
00:27:06Now I know it's been a long time since I've been out here with you guys, and I just want

00:27:24Thank you so much.
00:27:24I missed you too.
00:27:27Now you know you can't have WrestleMania without a few surprises now, right?
00:27:35So John, I think we need to add one more to the attendance list.
00:28:27Thank you so much for allowing our family to share this moment with yours.
00:28:41I stand corrected.
00:28:44We need to include the youngest WWE superstar in history for 50,817 in attendance tonight.
00:28:58And you can feel the energy here in Las Vegas.
00:29:03All the noise.
00:29:05Everybody's focused on this box right here because next up is your main event.
00:29:20Congratulations to Bianca Belair.
00:29:23Of course, her husband, Montez Ford.
00:29:28Wow, what a shocker at WrestleMania.
00:29:31I'll tell you right now.
00:29:32That kid is going to be an athlete.
00:29:35Great genetics.
00:29:36Minutes away from Cody and Randy.
00:29:39All right, WrestleMania fans.
00:29:41We got something exciting for you.
00:29:42A special look at one of the most anticipated movies of the year.
00:29:45Street Fighter.
00:29:46Coming to theaters this October.
00:29:48Check it out.
00:29:50Sergeant Yari Arista from the USO and the Air Force here in Nevada.
00:29:55Wheatley raises a glass to SAF Sergeant Arista and all retired and active members of the U.S. military.
00:30:01Thank you for your service.
00:30:04Buckle up.
00:30:05It's time for our main event.
00:30:17You know, I always watch the relationship between Triple H and Randy.
00:30:24Triple H was Randy's mentor.
00:30:26They became opponents.
00:30:28The relationship wasn't as cozy.
00:30:31And I always thought, I don't know if that's how I want to be one day with Randy Orton.
00:30:38My mentor.
00:30:40And in the case of Randy, I don't think it will be that way.
00:30:45I don't think it will be that way.
00:30:52I'm not your son and I'm not your brother, but I have always been proud to be your boy.
00:31:00And after the main event of WrestleMania, I want you to know.
00:31:06I will always love you.
00:31:29It's not personal between Cody and I.
00:31:33I want my legacy to be how much gold I have put around my waist.
00:31:40Here I find myself in a pool of blood.
00:31:45Sitting in a home I built below the God above.
00:31:49Don't let that monster in.
00:31:52I just don't understand why you're fighting so hard to go back to being a version of yourself you've already
00:31:56beaten.
00:32:00I don't know if it's the voices in your head.
00:32:02I don't know if it's somebody in your ear.
00:32:11I don't even think I know this version of you, man.
00:32:16Cody said that I could listen to the voices.
00:32:19He said I could be the Viper.
00:32:21What you have broken inside of me, there's no putting back to bed.
00:32:26Randy Orton, I am hearing those voices inside my head.
00:32:32Finally!
00:32:35There is one person outside of my head whose voice I am listening to.
00:32:41Pat McAfee?
00:32:44The business that you're leading is terrible.
00:32:49Randy is going to save this business.
00:32:55This is what this business is supposed to look like.
00:33:09Pat, you and everyone who represents you can kiss my ass!
00:33:16This is what this business is supposed to look like.
00:33:19This is what this business is supposed to look like.
00:33:20Tony walks right up onto the stage to ruin our set.
00:33:24Guess what Cody wears?
00:33:27At WrestleMania in Las Vegas?
00:33:30Randy saves the business.
00:33:32This is the house of woe and pain.
00:33:36This is where I will begin again.
00:33:39This is where I will begin again.
00:33:47Hey!
00:33:50Let's go!
00:33:54Great.
00:34:09Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Pat McAfee!
00:34:17This hypocrite.
00:34:19How about you two were boys?
00:34:21Yeah, you know what?
00:34:22I've given a lot of thought to this over the past few weeks.
00:34:27That man right there who now is telling the WWE fans what he thinks about him.
00:34:33This is the man who embraced these fans over the past number of years.
00:34:38This is the man who stood next to me when Cody Rhodes finished his story.
00:34:45The night that Cody Rhodes won the championship at WrestleMania.
00:34:50He had tears in his eyes.
00:34:51He was as emotional as I was for Cody Rhodes and what Rhodes had finally accomplished.
00:34:58And now, a few short years later, this guy walks into our business.
00:35:04He disrespects everyone.
00:35:08Struts out here with this massive ego and claims that he's going to change the way things are done around
00:35:14here.
00:35:15I don't know what's happened to this guy.
00:35:17I don't know what's got in his head.
00:35:18Except that this ass has an ego that is blown completely out of control.
00:35:25Well, I'm not going to try and add reason to the rhyme of some of the things Pat McAfee has
00:35:31said in recent weeks like you.
00:35:33There's very little of it that I agree with.
00:35:36But what it has done is created buzz.
00:35:39It's created eyeballs on this matchup now that perhaps might not have been there otherwise.
00:35:45Well, I agree. There's no doubt about it.
00:35:47I said it on ESPN this week.
00:35:49Have McAfee being a part of this product will always generate buzz.
00:35:54People are talking about it.
00:35:56He talks about it on his show on ESPN.
00:35:58But it's the way he's going about this.
00:36:00And this attitude he has.
00:36:04This larger than thou feeling.
00:36:08Well, he's somebody and I'll use a Michael Cole slash John Cena word from earlier in the night.
00:36:14He is polarizing here in WWE.
00:36:17Yeah, I got a lot of other words I can say about him too.
00:36:19We'll get taken off air if you do.
00:36:21He has been loved.
00:36:22He has been hated.
00:36:23He's been everything in between.
00:36:24And right now, I think it's pretty much 100% on the hated end of that spectrum.
00:36:54I have voices in my head.
00:36:57They tell to me.
00:36:59They understand.
00:37:00They talk to me.
00:37:11You're saying
00:37:12You got shows in your religion, All designed to keep you safe.
00:37:17But when rules start getting broken, Stop questioning your fate.
00:37:22I have a voice that is the savior
00:37:25Hates to love and loves to hate
00:37:28I have a voice that has alignment
00:37:31And the power to obey
00:37:34I hear voices talking
00:37:38I see people talking
00:37:41I see brothers talking
00:37:44I'm intentional talking
00:37:47I hear voices talking
00:37:49I hear people talking
00:37:50I hear people talking
00:37:52They talk to me
00:37:55They talk to me
00:37:58They tell you things
00:38:00They are the true generation
00:38:01They talk to me
00:38:04They talk to me
00:38:09They talk to me
00:38:11They talk to me
00:38:12They talk to me
00:38:13They talk to me
00:38:15I don't know who's on defense
00:38:18All the doctors are deceased
00:38:20And we're preachers
00:38:22All the sinners
00:38:24And police
00:38:25Just take the grease
00:38:26All the doctors are guilty
00:38:29All the bosses are the fire
00:38:32All your things
00:38:34Do it
00:38:35Losses, politicians, all the liars
00:38:39I see darkness calling
00:38:42I hear voices calling
00:38:45I hear justice calling
00:38:48I see faith has fallen
00:38:51I have those ears in my head
00:38:53They're just breathing
00:38:55They're just breathing
00:38:58They're just breathing
00:39:00They tell me things that I'm
00:39:04They tell me things that I'm
00:39:08They tell me
00:39:10It's just breathing
00:39:13I hear voices calling
00:39:34I see people dying
00:39:37I take the blood that's dying
00:39:40I feel tensed by tears
00:39:43I hear voices calling
00:39:45They're just breathing
00:39:47They're just breathing
00:39:50They're just breathing
00:39:53They think I know
00:39:56They talk to me
00:40:02They talk to me
00:40:08They talk to me
00:40:09They talk to me
00:40:20I have a force that is the savior
00:40:24Hates to lie and rush to hate
00:40:27I have a force that has the knowledge
00:40:30And the power to your faith
00:40:33I hear voices crying
00:40:36I see heroes dying
00:40:39I taste blood and crying
00:40:42I feel tension rising
00:40:45I hear voices crying
00:40:57Oh, God

00:41:54Listen to this place
00:41:55I don't understand why Orton needs McAfee in his ear
00:41:59I'll tell you why he needs McAfee in his ear
00:42:01There is nothing McAfee can offer Orton
00:42:04when it comes to this business
00:42:05No advice he can give him that will help Orton
00:42:07What McAfee has done
00:42:09is divided the attention
00:42:10of Orton's opponent, Cody Rhodes
00:42:1390% of the interviews in the lead-up to this
00:42:16that Cody has done
00:42:17have been about McAfee
00:42:19that's a mistake
00:42:22Oh my God
00:42:24Oh my God
00:42:25Oh you said
00:42:25Oh my God
00:49:05Here's Alicia Taylor.
00:50:51And...
00:50:52And...
00:50:53And...
00:50:53He's looking...
00:50:54From Atlanta, Georgia, weighing in at 222 pounds,
00:51:03he is the undisputed WWE Champion,
00:51:11the American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes!
00:51:26What an atmosphere.
00:51:29Senior official Charles Robinson will referee this championship match tonight,
00:51:34a match 20 years in the making.
00:51:39The mentor, the student Rhodes.
00:51:43Randy creeping up on history.
00:51:46He wins.
00:51:47Oh, my God, come on!
00:51:51McAfee assaulting Rhodes with a microphone.
00:51:54And now Randy Orton beating the hell out of the champion,
00:51:58and the match hasn't even started yet.
00:52:00And right before the bell was going to ring, the fix is in.
00:52:03McAfee knows exactly what he's doing.
00:52:05As callous, as cold as you like.
00:52:08And Cody trying to fight back now.
00:52:10Randy Orton sent into the corner.
00:52:12And now Pat McAfee trying to get into the fray.
00:52:15Sitting up.
00:52:16Cody Rhodes.
00:52:18Get him!
00:52:19Crossroads!
00:52:20Oh, God, no Pat McAfee.
00:52:21Take a walk, McAfee.
00:52:23Thanks for coming.
00:52:29Well, the master plan simply didn't work for McAfee and Orton here.
00:52:33Okay, Cody Rhodes isn't done yet.
00:52:34And you can't blame him.
00:52:35You can't blame Cody Rhodes, Wade.
00:52:37Oh, God, Cody.
00:52:38You cannot blame Cody Rhodes.
00:52:39Cody has to do this.
00:52:40Take him out, Cody.
00:52:41Take him out.
00:52:45Man who threw so many barbs at Cody Rhodes,
00:52:48through physical shots at Cody Rhodes.
00:52:51Well, welcome to the main event of Wrestlemania, Pat McAfee.
00:52:55Everything he's done to you, Cody.
00:52:57Beat the hell out of him.
00:52:58Everything he's done to you.
00:53:02Jelly Roll is here.
00:53:05Come on, also.
00:53:06McAfee's in love.
00:53:07Jelly Roll on the Spanness and outs table.
00:53:13Jelly Roll.
00:53:14And elbow driving Pat McAfee halfway to hell.
00:53:25Now, go give him a one-on-one fight that came to see.
00:53:28Go give him a fight that came to see.
00:53:35Bring the garbage truck out and take out the trash.
00:53:39Oh, wow.
00:53:40McAfee completely wiped out.
00:53:42The bell hasn't even rung on everything.
00:53:45Now, back in the favor of the champ, Cody Rhodes.
00:53:48Yeah, Cody telling Kittle to take out the trash.
00:53:54McAfee's out.
00:53:55Well, McAfee needs a stretcher.
00:53:56I think there's one on the way here.
00:53:58He needs a shrink is what he needs.
00:54:00And Randy Orton looking on at a flattened Pat McAfee.
00:54:04Whatever game plan was in place for the challenger here
00:54:07has completely gone out the window.
00:54:10One other look.
00:54:11Jelly Roll with an elbow driving McAfee
00:54:13through our announce table
00:54:14as Cody Rhodes looks off with a smile.
00:54:17And now, as they get McAfee out of here, Wade,
00:54:19here's the situation.
00:54:20Finally, we're going to get that one-on-one thing I need.
00:54:24That's the match between Orton and Rhodes.
00:54:27Finally, equal playing field.
00:54:30Nobody's screwing around.
00:54:32Rhodes and Orton for the title.
00:54:34Well, the fix was attempted by McAfee.
00:54:36The jumpstart before the bell even rang.
00:54:39And McAfee now has a one-way ticket to hospital.
00:54:43So, Wade, I do want to bring this up
00:54:44as they deal with McAfee at ringside.
00:54:46Randy Orton.
00:54:47Randy Orton.
00:54:48There's been rumors running rampant online all week long
00:54:53about Randy Orton possibly being injured.
00:54:56From what I understand here,
00:54:58from what I understand,
00:54:59in the locker room today,
00:55:01there was a lot of talk about Randy Orton have a back injury.
00:55:04So, will he be 100% down?
00:55:06You know what you call that?
00:55:07You call that a red herring.
00:55:09That's just another thing being thrown at Cody Rhodes to think about.
00:55:13I don't believe it for a second.
00:55:15Randy's been through the walls in his career.
00:55:17We know he's had major back issues.
00:55:19I don't see any sign of that right now.
00:55:21So, Randy's fine.
00:55:22So, does this McAfee situation screw Randy up at all?
00:55:25100%!
00:55:26Clearly McAfee was here to be on the outside,
00:55:29to be a major issue and a thorn in the sides.
00:55:31We take another look at what just went down
00:55:34before our main event even got started.
00:55:37It was a crossroads,
00:55:39followed up by this elbow drop through the table
00:55:41by Jelly Roll,
00:55:42who'd been attacked by Orton and McAfee
00:55:45in the build-up to this.
00:56:00McAfee is being carted out.
00:56:02Cody Rhodes is ready for a fight.
00:56:05The Viper Randy Orton looks to regroup.
00:56:07What is at stake here?
00:56:09Is Rhodes undisputed WWE Championship
00:56:12and Randy Orton's march toward history?
00:56:15A win tonight moves him ahead of Triple H
00:56:18into third place all time with 15 world titles.
00:56:21Flair is 16, Cena is 17.
00:56:24Orton would love to break the records.
00:56:26He moves a minute closer if he wins tonight.
00:56:32Randy! Randy! Randy! Randy! Randy! Randy! Randy!
00:56:38This is the third main event at WrestleMania
00:56:41in Randy Orton's career.
00:56:4322 years at WrestleMania this year.
00:56:49This is really a position that neither man thought
00:56:52they were going to be in at this point of the match.
00:56:55The opening bell.
00:56:56No Pat McAfee here to help Orton.
00:56:58No Pat McAfee here to distract Cody Rhodes.
00:57:02We're getting straight up student versus teacher.
00:57:05And I'll tell you right now, Cole,
00:57:07it rarely works out well when the student starts to outshine that teacher.
00:57:13So now the lock-up collar and elbow tie up into a headlock by Randy Orton.
00:57:17Orton and Rhodes here tonight.
00:57:19What does Orton have to do to win the title?
00:57:20Well, Orton needs to think fast because whatever game plan he had on the outside
00:57:24with Pat McAfee needs to lean into 25 years of experience
00:57:27and come up with a new game plan pretty damn quickly.
00:57:31For Cody Rhodes, the man who's in a mixed bag in WrestleMania over the years,
00:57:35what does Cody need to do to keep the title?
00:57:37Well, Cody needs to stay calm.
00:57:39He's been put through the wood chipper by Randy Orton emotionally
00:57:42and physically over the past several weeks.
00:57:45Needs to block that out,
00:57:46realize this is just another man you are competing against.
00:57:49Time and again, Cody has beaten the best of this industry
00:57:53over the past three years.
00:57:54Well, he needs to do it again tonight.
00:57:56Well, Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes,
00:57:57the relationship dates back 20 years.
00:58:00The formation of Legacy with Ted DiBiase Jr.,
00:58:02Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton.
00:58:05Orton really giving Rhodes his start here at this level in WWE.
00:58:09And there's the shoulder tackle by Orton,
00:58:11who seems to be moving frisply so far.
00:58:14Don't believe a word of the hype you see online, Michael Cole.
00:58:17Well, it's not just online.
00:58:18There was a lot of talk in the locker room today about it as well.
00:58:21Because people in the locker room believe the nonsense they read online.
00:58:23Well, this is Randy Orton who looks absolutely back to a physical peak.
00:58:28Cody bounced off the top turnbuckle by the Viper.
00:58:32Randy Orton who has nine wins at WrestleMania.
00:58:35He's tied fifth all time with a man we saw earlier tonight, Seth Rollins.
00:58:40What is Randy's primary motivation?
00:58:42He wants to be the greatest of all time in terms of total championships.
00:58:47He gets one step closer tonight with a victory at number 15.
00:58:51Rhodes looking to out quick work.
00:58:53There's the drop down with the right hand.
00:58:56Randy misses Wildman.
00:58:57Cody Rhodes on a power slam.
00:58:59I'll tell you right now, speaking to Cody,
00:59:01I was very close to him during my in-ring career.
00:59:04And Cody would always, always talk on in rental cars,
00:59:07at bars about how much he was inspired and impressed by Randy Orton.
00:59:12How Randy Orton was the perfect wrestler.
00:59:13Nobody has studied Randy Orton as deeply as Cody Rhodes has.
00:59:19Rhodes now off the second row.
00:59:20Went to the Cody cut and got caught by Orton now.
00:59:23And Randy, oh, and we haven't seen Randy do that in a while.
00:59:25He delivered a backbreaker.
00:59:27Randy came up a bit lame.
00:59:29Oh.
00:59:30You saw the way that Randy's back, his body torqued as he delivered that to Cody Rhodes.
00:59:35Now the moment of truth.
00:59:36Remember at the King of the Ring a couple of years back, earlier on, a few months back.
00:59:41Randy Orton now with a thumb to the eye.
00:59:42Cody Rhodes wouldn't pull the trigger on Randy.
00:59:44It almost cost him.
00:59:45Talk about a back issue.
00:59:47Of course, Randy's career almost ended just a couple of years ago by a major back surgery.
00:59:51And that was certainly something tweaked in that lower back.
00:59:55And we'll see if Randy can shrug that off.
00:59:56That sometimes happens early in matches.
00:59:59You're not quite warm.
01:00:00Those were long entrances.
01:00:01A lot of nonsense on the outside before the match even starts.
01:00:04Sometimes your body cools down.
01:00:06Randy may have just tweaked a little something.
01:00:08And once the body temperature gets back up, he'll be running back.
01:00:12Oh, Cody Rhodes.
01:00:14Delivering Randy with a slam.
01:00:15Randy now, mildly standing the right hand.
01:00:18And Randy's hurting, and he's going to roll out of the ring.
01:00:20It was that back once again.
01:00:22And when I called it a red herring earlier,
01:00:24maybe this is what the hype was in the locker room.
01:00:29I told you the rumors started to come out earlier in the week,
01:00:32and then there was a lot of talk about it today.
01:00:35And Randy isn't really hurting.
01:00:37Imagine being Randy Orton.
01:00:38You came down here expecting to be 100%.
01:00:40You came down here expecting to have Pat McAfee in your corner.
01:00:43You're the challenger in the main event of WrestleMania.
01:00:46And everything just went to hell in a handbasket.
01:00:52And Randy's even just looking slow.
01:00:54Forget the pain part, just moving slow.
01:00:57Oh, and now driving.
01:00:58Randy into the corner back first.
01:01:01Cody Rhodes being extremely aggressive here tonight.
01:01:04Understanding Orton's got a problem.
01:01:06And now with a half crab, Cody Rhodes going to continue to apply the pressure
01:01:10to the injured back of Orton.
01:01:12I mean, this is what you have to do when you're as good as these two,
01:01:16that any weakness whatsoever, you have to exploit it.
01:01:21You cannot have a single hesitation.
01:01:24Gold is on the line here.
01:01:25Your career legacy is on the line here.
01:01:28This man wants to take everything from you.
01:01:31Randy Orton admitting in an interview he did with you, Wade,
01:01:34that Cody's like a brother to him.
01:01:37But this is about his legacy.
01:01:39That is what drives Randy at this point in his career.
01:01:42Yeah, it was a fascinating interview.
01:01:43I was amazed at how calm and controlled Randy was.
01:01:47There's a certain controlled psychosis about him,
01:01:52which I realize is an oxymoron, but it's true.
01:01:54It's like Randy can flick a switch,
01:01:56and that absolute beast inside him comes out to play.
01:01:59And I'm impressed with what Cody's doing tonight.
01:02:01No hesitation to attack the weakness of Orton.
01:02:04Well, not at all, and this is what you have to do at this level.
01:02:07And after everything Orton has done to Cody
01:02:10over the past four or so weeks,
01:02:12this is exactly what Orton deserves.
01:02:15Who can forget the blast to the head
01:02:18with that steel chair several weeks ago on SmackDown
01:02:20that left Cody a bloody mess,
01:02:22ended that friendship.
01:02:24Orton blames Cody for all of this,
01:02:26saying that Cody Rhodes is the one
01:02:28that unleashed the demons,
01:02:29told him to be who you are,
01:02:31and Randy took it to heart.
01:02:36Randy is just a binary personality.
01:02:39It's black and it's white.
01:02:41It's friend or it's foe.
01:02:43And when gold is on the line,
01:02:45you make a choice.
01:02:47Even if you go back to the King of the Ring tournament,
01:02:50the final last year,
01:02:51Randy momentarily hesitated
01:02:53to put Cody away in that match.
01:02:56He's regretted it ever since.
01:02:59And if he gets a chance tonight,
01:03:01he certainly will not make that same mistake again.
01:03:03And Cody had the same issue in that tournament
01:03:05with Orton, and you saw it tonight.
01:03:07He wasn't going to allow it to happen
01:03:08when this time arrived.
01:03:10All bets are off at this point.
01:03:12You hesitate when it's a friend.
01:03:14These two stopped being friends several weeks ago.
01:03:16Oh, not if you listen to Randy.
01:03:21Elbows to the ear.
01:03:23Cody Rhodes.
01:03:24Reverse that.
01:03:25Rhodes sent into the corner.
01:03:27Over the top.
01:03:28Scoops up Orton.
01:03:30An accommodation and a kick out at two.
01:03:37And again, right to the kidney area.
01:03:40And Randy's having trouble just standing.
01:03:42Look at the way his feet are.
01:03:44He can't even stand right.
01:03:45Randy is a shadow of the man
01:03:48that has been on the road to WrestleMania
01:03:50that got himself here.
01:03:52Well, it's all going to ride tonight.
01:03:55Cody now delivers a suplex.
01:03:57Great strategy.
01:03:58Find the chain into the cover.
01:04:00And again, these frequent hovers
01:04:02also hurting the back of Orton
01:04:04as he has to kick out.
01:04:05Yeah, absolutely.
01:04:06It plows pressure to the midsection.
01:04:09Constantly having to squeeze your torso
01:04:12and you're right.
01:04:12That kick out just triggering
01:04:14whatever sciatic issue that might be.
01:04:21Randy just trying to somehow
01:04:23get himself back in the match
01:04:25as Cody Rhodes now
01:04:26looks to climb to the top rope.
01:04:28Randy's barely got a shot in
01:04:30for the past five minutes.
01:04:32He's been absorbing abuse.
01:04:33And Randy Orton
01:04:36able to cause Cody to lose his balance.
01:04:40And now Randy has a chance.
01:05:05And now Randy Orton
01:05:07and Cody Rhodes exchanging blows.
01:05:11Orton needs to end this match quickly
01:05:13to have a chance.
01:05:16I mean, can he block out the pain enough
01:05:18to deliver enough damage to Cody
01:05:20to put him away?
01:05:21That's the problem.
01:05:22This is not smart for Orton.
01:05:24No, not at all.
01:05:25Randy letting his instincts kick in.
01:05:27But a superplex to Rhodes
01:05:29won't be good for Orton either.
01:05:32Cowboy Bob Orton style.
01:05:35Randy Orton reverting to type
01:05:37and clearly regretting it.
01:05:43And look at this.
01:05:44You go big or you go home
01:05:46at WrestleMania
01:05:46and it may be time for Randy Orton
01:05:48to go home
01:05:49because going big there
01:05:50was a big mistake.
01:05:57But at least the superplex
01:05:58from Orton's standpoint
01:05:59has slowed Cody down a bit.
01:06:01And there's a clothesline by Randy.
01:06:02And now Randy
01:06:03looking to build off adrenaline.
01:06:06There's the power slam by Orton.
01:06:09Randy looking back to his
01:06:13superlative best.
01:06:16And that pain
01:06:17as much as it's hindering
01:06:19Orton's abilities
01:06:20if he can block it out
01:06:22if he can focus
01:06:23if you just do enough
01:06:25there is a pact of victory.
01:06:27And this is it.
01:06:28And there's the drapey DDT
01:06:30that vintage Randy Orton move
01:06:32but again
01:06:32twerking the back.
01:06:34I'll tell you right now
01:06:35there may not be a move
01:06:37in the entirety of wrestling
01:06:39that does not involve
01:06:40the back somehow.
01:06:43and even going down
01:06:44and
01:06:48dropping to apparently
01:06:49bang the mat
01:06:52was an issue for Orton there.
01:06:54But there's more than
01:06:55one way to skin a cat.
01:07:00Back to his feet
01:07:01went for the RKO
01:07:02Cody able to counter
01:07:03Randy
01:07:04grabbed his back again
01:07:05now sent out
01:07:06to the floor
01:07:07right here in front of us.
01:07:09Just a beat too slow
01:07:10is Orton
01:07:10to follow up
01:07:11on what he's planning.
01:07:12And Cody
01:07:13runs into a right hand
01:07:14by Randy
01:07:14and Randy needed that.
01:07:16A nice club
01:07:17right to the temple
01:07:18of Cody Rhodes
01:07:19and Randy Orton
01:07:20knocking the wind
01:07:21out of Cody
01:07:22at the right time.
01:07:25Look at the
01:07:26mess and destruction
01:07:27around us
01:07:28it may be about
01:07:29to get worse here.
01:07:31Oh and
01:07:33Randy Orton
01:07:34loves delivering
01:07:35those blows
01:07:36on the announce table
01:07:37which he's doing
01:07:38to Cody Rhodes here.
01:07:42Cody does have
01:07:43the advantage
01:07:44tonight
01:07:44being the champion.
01:07:46Randy's got to
01:07:47pin or submit Rhodes
01:07:48to win the title.
01:07:49A brave referee
01:07:50who does a double
01:07:51count out here
01:07:52and talking about
01:07:53brave
01:07:53I'm keeping well
01:07:54back from Randy Orton.
01:07:57That smile
01:07:58across the face
01:07:59of the Viper.
01:08:10suddenly you see
01:08:11that belief
01:08:11might be back
01:08:12in the eyes
01:08:13of Randy Orton.
01:08:14Oh no Orton
01:08:16driven into the post
01:08:17by Cody
01:08:17and Cody
01:08:18looking to rally.
01:08:22Cody's been
01:08:22softened off
01:08:23but he's got
01:08:24a diehard spirit.
01:08:30this has been
01:08:31a physical match
01:08:32and Cody
01:08:33of course
01:08:34he was attacked
01:08:35before the match
01:08:35even began
01:08:36by McAfee
01:08:38and Orton
01:08:38which might have
01:08:39been the best
01:08:40thing that could
01:08:40have happened
01:08:41to Cody Rhodes
01:08:43based on how
01:08:44things turned out
01:08:45in the aftermath
01:08:45of said attack.
01:08:48And now
01:08:49Randy Orton
01:08:52Orton's been
01:08:53busted open
01:08:54and now
01:08:54Cody Rhodes
01:08:55with the right
01:08:55hand
01:08:56and Cody
01:08:56now going
01:08:57to focus
01:08:57on that wound
01:08:58on the forehead
01:08:59of Randy.
01:09:00Head first
01:09:01into that steel
01:09:02ring post
01:09:03and the effects
01:09:03are apparent
01:09:04to the entire
01:09:05world now
01:09:05and Randy Orton's
01:09:07problems continue
01:09:08to spiral
01:09:09in this main event
01:09:11with the WWE title
01:09:13hanging in the balance.
01:09:14And now
01:09:14an irate Cody Rhodes
01:09:16and angry Rhodes
01:09:17taking advantage
01:09:18of everything
01:09:19he can
01:09:20against Randy Orton.
01:09:25Can you imagine
01:09:26Cody Rhodes
01:09:27four weeks ago
01:09:28perhaps would have
01:09:28had some sympathy
01:09:29some empathy
01:09:30from his former
01:09:32mentor
01:09:32from his former
01:09:33friend.
01:09:34He can't show
01:09:35that tonight
01:09:36Cody.
01:09:37Yeah but a lot
01:09:37has changed
01:09:38in the last
01:09:39four weeks.
01:09:43The complexion
01:09:44of the industry
01:09:45the business
01:09:45has changed
01:09:47so quickly
01:09:48because of what
01:09:49has happened
01:09:49in this rivalry.
01:09:54Cody
01:09:56as Randy Orton
01:09:57is begging
01:09:57for mercy
01:09:58here.
01:09:59Cody never
01:10:00thought he would
01:10:00be in this
01:10:01position tonight.
01:10:02He didn't think
01:10:03he'd get a viper
01:10:04so softened
01:10:05up by injury.
01:10:08Cody showing
01:10:09no mercy
01:10:10at all.
01:10:11Nor should he.
01:10:12Oh and there
01:10:12it is the disaster
01:10:13kick by Rhodes.
01:10:15Randy Orton
01:10:16drops in the ring.
01:10:17Cody's got a chance
01:10:18into the cover
01:10:19to retain the
01:10:20championship.
01:10:20Orton just gets
01:10:21the shoulder up.
01:10:22Well Orton
01:10:23is a shell
01:10:24of a competitor
01:10:25right now
01:10:26and you're in
01:10:26there with one
01:10:27of the greatest
01:10:27in Cody Rhodes.
01:10:29Not where you
01:10:29want to be.
01:10:30We're going
01:10:30Rambo style
01:10:31tonight.
01:10:37This has become
01:10:38just a methodical
01:10:39beat down
01:10:40by Cody.
01:10:41Almost enjoying
01:10:42what he's doing
01:10:43to Orton.
01:10:44Well it's
01:10:45catharsis isn't it?
01:10:46Everything Orton
01:10:46has put Cody
01:10:47through over the
01:10:48past month or so.
01:10:49Well here's
01:10:50your reward
01:10:51Viper.
01:10:51Well I mentioned
01:10:52at the top
01:10:52of the match
01:10:53right at some
01:10:54point everybody
01:10:55reaches that
01:10:56breaking point
01:10:56and we wondered
01:10:57if Cody was
01:10:58going to reach
01:10:58it tonight.
01:11:01Cody beating
01:11:02the hell out of
01:11:04Randy Orton
01:11:04here and Randy
01:11:06Orton just
01:11:06looking limp.
01:11:09Cody's been
01:11:10through so much
01:11:11mentally.
01:11:23And now dragging
01:11:24Randy Orton up
01:11:25to the second
01:11:26rope and Cody
01:11:26Rhodes may be
01:11:28about to deliver
01:11:29some of Randy's
01:11:30own medicine.
01:11:32Drowny DDT by Cody.
01:11:35Well this will be
01:11:37an emphatic way
01:11:39to put down
01:11:40the Viper for good.
01:11:42This is a different
01:11:43Cody Rhodes tonight.
01:11:49Randy talked about
01:11:51his legacy.
01:11:52It's about Cody's
01:11:53legacy as well.
01:11:56A three-time
01:11:57world champion.
01:11:59And you feel
01:12:00if Cody can put
01:12:01something on
01:12:02Orton here
01:12:03it really is
01:12:04game over
01:12:05and Cody wants
01:12:07to do it in style
01:12:08in that game.
01:12:10And now just
01:12:11mocking Randy.
01:12:18Randy slowly
01:12:20to his feet
01:12:21and Cody
01:12:22sent it to the
01:12:23corner.
01:12:23Randy Orton.
01:12:26Randy!
01:12:29Crossroads
01:12:30to Cody.
01:12:33Cody kicked
01:12:34out
01:12:34or not
01:12:35close
01:12:36to a 15th
01:12:37world championship.
01:12:39Well a burst
01:12:40of energy
01:12:41and a burst
01:12:42of ideas
01:12:43at exactly
01:12:44the right time
01:12:45there from
01:12:46Randy Orton
01:12:47simply
01:12:47transcendent
01:12:48from the Viper
01:12:50connecting
01:12:50just when it
01:12:51looked like
01:12:52it was over
01:12:52with that
01:12:53crossroads
01:12:54and spinning
01:12:56momentum
01:12:57back in his
01:12:57favor
01:12:58but how
01:12:58quickly
01:12:59can Orton
01:13:00get back
01:13:01to being
01:13:01the Viper?
01:13:02How quickly
01:13:03can he put
01:13:04a stranglehold
01:13:06on this match?
01:13:07Now he has
01:13:07the advantage
01:13:08because Cody
01:13:09has been
01:13:09rocked.
01:13:11And now Orton
01:13:12slithers
01:13:13into position
01:13:14coiled
01:13:15and ready
01:13:15to strike.
01:13:16Randy Orton
