00:00You are the best.
00:38A storm is coming.
01:13Let's go.
01:14Y'all already know.
01:15Y'all already know.
01:17Y'all already know.
01:24Now all these people go-handed.
01:26Go-handed!
01:50The Storm Jade Cargill.
01:55The current WWE Champion who is 2-0 in her career at WrestleMania and hopes to continue that winning streak
02:05tonight.
02:06Because for the first time ever, she goes one-on-one with the eradicator Rhea Ripley.
02:15And tonight's Women's Championship match is presented by Minute Maid.
02:20Bring the juice.
02:22And Wade, we know Jade Cargill will bring the juice.
02:25This is one of the greatest physical specimens, male or female, this industry has ever seen.
02:32But it ain't just looks.
02:34This woman knows exactly how to use it.
02:37A supreme being.
02:39A supreme athlete.
02:41A supreme champion.
02:46This is my huge diversity.
03:10This is my huge diversity.
03:12I'm not going to die.
03:16I'm not going to die.
03:16Look in my eyes if you're dying.
03:20I'm not going to die.
03:22I'm not going to die.
03:24I'm not going to die.
03:28We're killing all of the demons you make.
03:33I still feel the darkness that lives are making you.
03:38I'm taking so many to sleep.
03:41I'm evil.
03:44There's no escaping from me.
03:48You are going to die.
03:50This is my first time I'm taking.
03:53You're a demon in your dreams.
03:56You're ending in your dreams.
03:58You've seen it again.
04:00I'm not going to die.
04:02I'm not going to die.
04:02I'm not going to die.
04:05I'm not going to die.
04:07I'm not going to die.
04:32I'm not going to die.
04:37I'm not going to die.
04:38I'd say Jay Cargill has driven a lot of people insane in many different ways, but namely, the women's locker
04:48room through her sheer dominance has looked unstoppable since winning the WWE Women's Championship.
04:56Nobody has really come close to the Groninger, but undoubtedly this is the biggest test left that there is, WrestleMania
05:05and Rhea Bloody Ripley.
05:07And Ripley earned this match by winning the Elimination Chamber.
05:12Rhea has not held a world title in over a year. She hopes to end that drought tonight.
05:21And we know from history that Rhea Ripley can hit the heights at WrestleMania, one of the greatest matches I've
05:27personally ever seen.
05:28Three years ago, SoFi Stadium WrestleMania against Charlotte Flair.
05:33There was really the big coming out party for Rhea Ripley at the very top level of this industry, and
05:40she's never looked back.
05:42Let's head up to the ring now, and the great Alicia Taylor.
05:51The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and is for the WWE Women's Championship.
06:06The winner of the WWE Women's Championship.
06:08Introducing first the challenger, from Adelaide, South Australia, Rhea Ripley.
06:26And her opponent, from Vero Beach, Florida, she is the WWE Women's Champion.
06:43The winner of the WWE Women's Championship.
06:43Jade Cargill said that, I don't need the championship.
06:51I'm a star. I'm a prototype.
06:55For Rhea Ripley, this is about defending the honor of our industry against who she says is an outsider, who's
07:02having success at this level.
07:04And it's time to teach Jade Cargill a lesson. That's what Rhea Ripley says tonight.
07:09Yeah, I couldn't disagree any more strongly with what Ripley just said there.
07:13Jade Cargill is not an outsider. Jade Cargill had a very different path to get here than Rhea Ripley.
07:19But here she is because she's earned it, she deserves it, and she has the gold for a reason.
07:25And only, well, several reasons, and only one of those is because she looks damn good with it.
07:31It's gonna be an interesting matchup for Rhea, because Rhea's not used to being in a match with someone as
07:36powerful and as big as she is.
07:39Yeah, not at all. Jade Cargill has presence, power, and aura, all from that body built in the heavens.
07:47And now Rhea Ripley, used to being the dominant one in the ring, may not have it her own way
07:53for once.
07:55And now Jade powering Rhea into the ropes, and the official gonna throw Cargill to break, as Jade says, get
08:02out of my face.
08:03Not the only time that officials heard that. And now, oh, Jade with a shoulder tackle.
08:07I'll tell you right now, there's some real hatred between these two wins.
08:10Oh, we've seen it spill out from the ring, all the way into social media, there's some locker room friction
08:16between them.
08:17They need to be kept separated behind the scenes at Raw, SmackDown, and indeed at WrestleMania.
08:23But now, and Rhea Ripley from behind, and a kick delivered.
08:28And now up goes Cargill, and down she goes face first.
08:32Ripley now, basement drop kick, and Cargill out to the apron and outside the ring.
08:37Well, a wake up call there for Jade Cargill, undoubtedly the most skilled in-ring competitor is Rhea Ripley,
08:45but incredibly smart and crafty is Jade Cargill.
08:48Jade claims it's jealousy and it's bitterness.
08:50And I agree.
08:52Power slam.
08:54Oh wow, that was beautiful.
08:54Cover by the champ, kick out.
08:56But it's easy to hate on Jade Cargill if you are sharing a locker room with her.
09:01Of course, everyone taking a picture, a photograph, they want Jade Cargill first.
09:07They roll the red carpet out for Jade Cargill because she just looks like a star.
09:12People don't want to accept that she can back it up, but the truth is she certainly can.
09:16Maybe she should treat people better.
09:18Well, look at her taking out Rhea Ripley now on the corner.
09:31Two women who see themselves as the most dominant, legitimate and alpha competitors in the world and are simply not
09:39prepared to take a backward step from one another.
09:42Oh, and Jade now, right to the small, the back of Ripley.
09:45This has been great strategy so far for Cargill.
09:47Well, everything's worked so far.
09:49Ripley had a little fury in there, but now pure power has taken over.
09:53And you have to say, based on the early goings here, the power advantage is firmly in the corner of
09:58Jade Cargill.
09:58And again, a bit of a wake up call perhaps from Rhea tonight.
10:01Yeah, you're not going to have it easy.
10:03You might talk some smart.
10:04You might say this woman is not worthy.
10:07There's a reason she has the gold.
10:09There's a reason she's right here at WrestleMania and the world talks about her.
10:12And I actually like the fact that she rolled into the ring to break up the couch.
10:15She wants to pin Ripley tonight and prove to the world who's the boss.
10:19Well, we all know Rhea Ripley does not want to win anything easily.
10:24She wants to prove her dominance every single time.
10:27Well, exactly the same mindset as Jade Cargill.
10:31Now Cargill with Rhea up and down goes Ripley.
10:34Here's the cover.
10:35Is it enough in a kick out by Cargill?
10:39It's a nice blue thunder bomb there, but it didn't do enough.
10:42And that might have antagonized Jade Cargill a little bit here.
10:48Now Cargill measuring Ripley who's in a bit of trouble.
10:51Look at the smile on Cargill's face, but Rhea's as well.
10:55Rhea is somebody who does not feel fear, pain.
10:58We certainly know that much.
10:59Oh, wow.
11:00Nice takedown and look at this.
11:03Crossface applied in the center of the ring.
11:05And I like that from Jade Cargill.
11:07Big swing and a miss from Rhea Ripley.
11:10I like the quickness we saw out of Cargill there as well.
11:13She almost baited Ripley in there.
11:15Gave it a little pause.
11:16Gave her a little space.
11:17Ripley thought, now it's my turn.
11:18Uh-uh.
11:19No, it's not.
11:23Rhea trying to fight out of this.
11:25Yeah, easier said than done with someone as powerful as Jade Cargill.
11:29But wait a second here.
11:32That is a huge frame to be powering up.
11:35It just took a beat too long for Rhea Ripley.
11:38And Ripley now once again down.
11:41Jay, stop your inner tracks with that kick.
11:43A capoeira kick right to the side of the head of Jade Cargill.
11:47She was not anticipating that.
11:49Such a strange angle for a kick to come from.
11:53And clearly Cargill has never experienced that before.
11:56Ripley now trying to find something.
11:59Anything to give her hope in this match.
12:00Down goes Cargill.
12:02And now Ripley unloading.
12:03Grabbed and pounded away and out.
12:05It's Jade Cargill turning things around on Rhea.
12:08Now we're in a fight.
12:12Now we're in a fight.
12:28Oh!
12:35And now Jade's down.
12:37Does Rhea have a chance here?
12:39Well Ripley now growing in confidence after riding out that storm.
12:44Excuse the pun.
12:45And oh my god.
12:47Ripley.
12:47Oh!
12:48Cargill down.
12:48She landed awkwardly.
12:50Covered by Ripley.
12:51Hook of the leg and a kick out.
12:52Jade landed right on her face.
12:54Well historically speaking,
12:55when Rhea Ripley feels like her dominance is threatened,
12:59that's when the best of Ripley comes out to play.
13:03And I feel like we're nearing that territory now.
13:05But the question is,
13:06how much damage has Ripley already absorbed?
13:14Rhea trying to regroup here.
13:16Trying to shake off those cobwebs.
13:18Back to her feet.
13:19Looking for rip time.
13:21Looking to end this thing.
13:22On Cargill.
13:23Jade though able to cover with a hip toss.
13:25Well Cargill is simply too powerful.
13:28Jade sent through out to the apron.
13:31Catches Rhea with a right.
13:33Up over the top now.
13:35Nice.
13:35Lands on her feet.
13:36Back elbow by Rhea.
13:38Kick by Jade.
13:39Cargill's just a step ahead.
13:42My buster.
13:45Rhea kicks it too.
13:47How impressive has Jade Cargill been in that ring tonight?
13:51She's done everything correct.
13:53She's making Rhea Ripley look average.
13:56And I never thought I would say that.
13:59It's a great way to put it.
14:03It's unthinkable.
14:04And it might be the end here, Cole.
14:05Yeah, Jade looking for Jade.
14:06Rhea Ripley in deep, deep trouble.
14:08Able to slip underneath.
14:09Hitting combination for the championship.
14:11And a kick out.
14:13Just when you start writing Cargill off.
14:15Oh God.
14:17Rhea trying to fight out of this now.
14:19Rhea nice take down with the hurrican off.
14:22And Lucha skills showing off now.
14:24And Rhea now with a kick.
14:25This shows you the breadth of the offense
14:28that Rhea Ripley is capable of.
14:30That's that veteran presence now kicking in.
14:33Oh, look who's here.
14:36It's Meech in the menace
14:37who has been attacking Ripley on behalf.
14:41Ripley looking for the Razor's Edge.
14:44And B-Fab saving Jade Cargill
14:47from the Razor's Edge there.
14:49The Cargill recruited B-Fab and Meech in
14:51over recent weeks to attack Rhea Ripley.
14:54Shoulder first.
14:55And the referee missed the entire thing.
14:59And now the official deal with Jade again.
15:01This is going to allow Meech in
15:03with yet another cheap shot.
15:04Three on one affair here against Ripley.
15:07Meech in being an absolute menace
15:09on the outside of the ring here in Ripley.
15:11It might be good night time.
15:13Jade with Ripley up on her shoulders.
15:15Electric chair possession.
15:16Into the sandstorm.
15:18The sandstorm.
15:19By Cargill and a kick out.
15:24I mean it was a kick out,
15:26but it was a lazy kick out at best.
15:28There's very little left in Rhea Ripley
15:31as we see the growing, expanding arsenal
15:34of Jade Cargill who knew she had to try
15:37something different tonight
15:39against the competitor as accomplished
15:41as Rhea Ripley had almost got the job done.
15:44actually got two people on the inside
15:45and a distracting Rhea as well.
15:48Whatever it takes.
15:49You know full well Mammy is going to bring it.
15:52And you have to be at your absolute best
15:54and maybe more if you're going to beat her.
16:00Well the plan was in, the plan didn't work.
16:03Now we've been hastily putting together
16:06a plan B here.
16:08Well Jade trying to tell Meechan and B-Fab
16:10to do something to Rhea here.
16:12They got to be careful.
16:19Rhea's got backup.
16:23And just the kind of backup you want.
16:28EO Sky!
16:30Rhea Ripley's best friend in the industry
16:33perhaps coming to save the day.
16:38EO Sky putting on a show.
16:42Jotay!
16:45That backfist and another one delivered to Meechan.
16:54Mobsault!
