00:00:00Ladies and gentlemen, for the thousands in attendance in Las Vegas, and the millions watching at home,
00:00:09I give to you, the anointed one, Mr. Lemon Pepper Stepper, Trick Williams!
00:00:28What? What?
00:00:55And this United States Championship match tonight is presented by Knox Hydration.
00:01:05The man who has taken WWE by Storm, whether you like his attitude or you don't.
00:01:12Ladies and gentlemen, you are looking at a masterpiece in human form.
00:01:15Come on. You are looking at a million dollars.
00:01:34What?
00:01:37What?
00:01:44Oh, my God, that's part of his jacket.
00:01:47That is a train, I believe you're calling.
00:01:51All right, thanks.
00:01:53To Loretta.
00:02:02You were one of those at your wedding, didn't you?
00:02:06I think that was my wife right there.
00:02:08See, this here...
00:02:09The one and only, in real time, Trick Willie!
00:02:17What do you call it? Trick Willie Mania?
00:02:20Well, Trick Willie is floating in here, looking like a cloud, and he'll float out on cloud number nine if
00:02:27he wins the gold there, Cole.
00:02:29Well, you know, this is what bothers Sami Zayn. All of these theatrics, this fanfare, but to Sami's point, Trick
00:02:35hasn't done anything at this level yet.
00:02:38What?
00:02:42Nothing wrong with fanfare, nothing wrong with a little pizzazz.
00:02:45That is what has connected with this packed-out stadium, from the WWE Universe around the world.
00:03:03Las Vegas makes some noise!
00:03:22This is for the United States Championship, and you have to wonder what the first ever United States Champion, the
00:03:29late great Harley Race, would think about someone like Trick Williams.
00:03:34My guy! Here he is, I told you, Wade! Little Yachty! I told you!
00:03:39Well, even I got a handshake from Little Yachty, so I guess he's my guy, too!
00:03:43All right, Michael Cole, stop posting!
00:03:44He doesn't know you. Here we go, Sami Zayn, Trick Williams for the United States Championship!
00:03:49Oh, man, polar opposites. A vet versus a relative rookie, a salt-of-the-earth personality versus an egomaniac.
00:03:55And Sami now takes down Trick Williams. Who do you call an egomaniac?
00:03:59Obviously Trick Williams. He loves himself, and the world loves him, too. No problem with that, Ego.
00:04:04But Sami's got a bit of change in demeanor as of late, as well.
00:04:07Yeah, so I want to talk about that, because Sami Zayn has had a disastrous 2026, up until a couple
00:04:12of weeks ago, where he won gold.
00:04:15To me, though, that is putting a Band-Aid over the cracks, and if Sami Zayn loses gold tonight, where
00:04:21the hell will he spiral to?
00:04:23Yeah, Trick Williams, a hot start in his career as a two-time NXT champion.
00:04:28He was a one-time TNA World Champion, NXT North American Champion, as well as Sami sends him over the
00:04:34top rope to the floor.
00:04:36Think about this, Sami Zayn is pretty much the last 10 years of WWE, and what is anticipated to be
00:04:41the next 10 years of WWE is Trick Williams.
00:04:45And look at how quickly Trick Williams gets back into the ring with a wicked closeback.
00:04:49And now another one to Sami Zayn, and here comes Williams!
00:04:52Yeah, here's the brilliance of Trick Williams.
00:04:54His speed of learning this industry has been faster than pretty much anyone I have ever seen.
00:04:59And that's Trick Slap!
00:05:00Neck Breaker!
00:05:01Sami went for the blue thunderbomb, and Trick Williams countered first with a Cyclone boot, and then with that Neck
00:05:09Breaker.
00:05:09Yeah, the biggest stage of Trick's career, and he is not backing down.
00:05:14He didn't come here to belong, he came here to take over.
00:05:17And this man started in football, American football, Wade.
00:05:20He was a two-time letterman at the University of South Carolina.
00:05:24A walk-on athlete, walked onto the team, cover off the bookend, and a kick out at two.
00:05:30Paying homage to the great Hall of Famer, Booker T, who's been very influential in the career of Trick Williams.
00:05:37We're talking about Zayn having a massive experience advantage, both in years and under the WrestleMania sparkly.
00:05:44And he's going to need all of that here.
00:05:46Blue thunderbomb!
00:05:47Cover to retain!
00:05:49And it looks like Williams was going for that Trick shot, jumping knee, and Sami was able to defend.
00:05:55Well, they've pretty much all gone Trick's way, and this is where the questions start to come in for a
00:05:59younger competitor who is less experienced at this level.
00:06:02When things stop going your way, where's your resilience?
00:06:06Where's your mindset?
00:06:07How's your psyche going to handle this?
00:06:09The referee in this matchup, Jason Ayers, backing the champion, Sami Zayn off.
00:06:14Remember, Sami Zayn has the advantage.
00:06:17Trick's got a pin or submit him here tonight.
00:06:18And Sami Zayn now unloading on Williams, a bit uncharacteristic for Sami.
00:06:23Well, certainly there are advantages to being the champ.
00:06:25There's also an advantage to having a little Yachty on the outside as your hype man hand, as we've seen
00:06:30on SmackDown the past couple of weeks, doesn't mind getting physical at times, too.
00:06:35Zayn's got to be aware of that.
00:06:37Little Yachty checking on his guy and Sami Zayn now, outside the ring.
00:06:41Yachty better turn around.
00:06:43Oh!
00:06:43It's getting Zayn now!
00:06:45Well, Zayn has taken some shots from Yachty, as I just mentioned.
00:06:50And there is your payback.
00:06:52Zayn's talked a lot about ride or die.
00:06:55Those are the fans that have been with him in the beginning through Thicke and Thing.
00:06:59And Fanning still stick with him!
00:07:00Oh, wow!
00:07:01Yachty is driven into the barricade.
00:07:04Well, if Trick Williams did have an advantage on the outside, that advantage has now gone away.
00:07:10And it truly is one-on-one.
00:07:12And Trick looks to be in major trouble now.
00:07:16And Sami Zayn now, with that killer instinct, driving Trick into the post.
00:07:22This is what Sami had to do.
00:07:24Take Trick and the crowd completely out of us.
00:07:26Oh!
00:07:27Trick Williams at this point, lots lost.
00:07:31Oh!
00:07:33Well, I remember Trick Williams being on the grand stage at WrestleMania, a new thing for him.
00:07:39Sami Zayn has had some very successful WrestleManias over the years.
00:07:44You have so much adrenaline and excitement coming into your first WrestleMania.
00:07:48Has that?
00:07:49Oh, no!
00:07:50A brain buster!
00:07:52To Williams!
00:07:57And that is absolutely devastating to Trick Williams' host, landing high and tight right
00:08:02on the back of the neck, the back of the head.
00:08:05And I've got to say, Wade, you've been following the Sami story for weeks now on SmackDown.
00:08:10This is a much different Sami Zayn than I'm accustomed to.
00:08:13It had to be.
00:08:14Sami Zayn was taking too many L.
00:08:16Sami Zayn was getting made a mockery of by people like Trick Williams has taunted him.
00:08:22Call him the gingerbread man.
00:08:24Told him he has no star appeal.
00:08:26Well, guess what?
00:08:28Sami Zayn has a hell of a lot in the tank.
00:08:31He might not look like the prototypical star like a Trick Williams, but boy, oh boy, can
00:08:36he fight.
00:08:37Sami Zayn measuring Williams now, driving Williams to the barricade with a boot.
00:08:43You think Sami not having an opportunity, well, he's had the opportunities, but hasn't
00:08:47been able to cash in on a world championship, finally sent him over the edge.
00:08:51Well, that's where it all went wrong at Royal Rumble earlier this year against the then
00:08:55champ Drew McIntyre.
00:08:57Lost the opportunity, but gold sank and sank, and suddenly has turned things around in a
00:09:01big way.
00:09:02I just want to point out that Sami was pointing to his knee pads.
00:09:05That's where the ride or die is painted on them.
00:09:09Well, he's made it clear.
00:09:10People in the...
00:09:11Oh, the camera's getting high here.
00:09:12Wait a second.
00:09:13Oh, Trick Williams falling down now.
00:09:14And the official...
00:09:15Or of eight.
00:09:16...close to a count out here.
00:09:17At eight, a count of nine, Trick Williams barely beats the count into the ring.
00:09:21Barely.
00:09:23He might be right for the pickings now, and Sami Zayn knows that, but talking about the
00:09:26ride or dies, and referee...
00:09:28Hey, we saw this a couple of weeks ago with Carmelo Hayes.
00:09:31A little distraction there from the referee who's trying to check on Trick Williams, and
00:09:35no hesitation to pounce there from Sami Zayn.
00:09:38Let's say what it is.
00:09:39It's a cheap shot.
00:09:40It's a smart shot in my book, and plenty of people have done this too.
00:09:44And this is how he beat Carmelo Hayes.
00:09:47Sami Zayn with Williams coming up in the corner.
00:09:49Zayn looking for an aluba kick to put Trick Williams away.
00:09:53And then Lil Yachty from behind.
00:09:55Hanging Zayn up top rope.
00:09:57Bang!
00:09:59Cover!
00:10:01Almost had him!
00:10:03Oh, with the referee's back turn.
00:10:06Lil Yachty back from the dead.
00:10:08Almost winning it for Trick Williams.
00:10:11One shot didn't do it.
00:10:12The second might no call.
00:10:15Sami Zayn trying to drag himself to his feet.
00:10:18Went for the Trick shot.
00:10:19Sami Zayn from behind.
00:10:20Rolls up Williams.
00:10:21Shoulders down.
00:10:22Kick out at two by Trick.
00:10:24Such incredible speed of thought from Sami Zayn.
00:10:27And exploded into the corner.
00:10:28And now Sami Zayn's got Williams exactly where he wants him.
00:10:32Well, hype is temporary, but class is permanent.
00:10:35And Sami Zayn is classed through and through from bell to bell.
00:10:40Zayn measuring his man across the ring.
00:10:44Trick shot.
00:10:45Trick shot.
00:10:46From out of nowhere.
00:10:48Trick Williams wins the United States title.
00:10:52Here is your winner.
00:10:54The new United States champion.
00:11:00Trick Williams.
00:11:14Trick Williams is officially anointed with the gold.
00:11:20And this is where Sami Zayn was going in for the kill.
00:11:24And Lil' Giotty had been dropped earlier behind the referee's back.
00:11:28Opened it up for this big old boot to the face.
00:11:31Just a millisecond away from victory.
00:11:35But Sami Zayn, we know how deep he can dig.
00:11:37One explode at suplex later.
00:11:40And it was Sami Zayn for the taking.
00:11:43Lining up for that haluba kick that has done so much damage.
00:11:47But simply beating him to the punch.
00:11:48With that trick shot.
00:11:51Knee pad down.
00:11:52And we got a new jump.
00:11:55As we have seen tonight at Wrestlemania Sunday.
00:12:00How bright is the future for WWE?
00:12:05Over 30, the folks in the ladder backs.
00:12:08And the new United States champion.
00:12:26And there is Trick Williams, mom and dad.
00:12:29Front row.
00:12:30Watching their son.
00:12:31With an historic Wrestlemania tonight.
00:12:36And spare of thought for Sami Zayn.
00:12:39Whose world has just imploded.
00:12:41But tonight it is all about Trick Williams.
00:12:44And his lemon pepper steppers.
00:12:46That are going to be stepping out of Las Vegas.
00:12:48Carrying 10 pounds extra.
00:12:51Namely, the United States Championship.
00:12:56Little assist from Lil' Yachty there.
00:12:58Your guy.
00:13:00And just for despair.
00:13:01In the face of Sami Zayn.
00:13:03There was a temporary referee for a couple of weeks.
00:13:07With Sami won the United States title.
00:13:09But Sami Zayn's got to figure out what's going on in his life.
00:13:12And fast.
00:13:13Yeah, talk about that.
00:13:14Papering over the cracks for Sami Zayn.
00:13:16When those cracks are exposed once again.
00:13:18But Trick Williams doesn't care.
00:13:19He's the champ.
00:13:21We're all that way.
00:13:23We're all that way.
00:13:26We're all that way.
00:13:26We're all that way.
00:13:29We're all that way.

00:13:38And the celebrities are out tonight.
00:13:40And I got one question.
00:13:41How the hell is the 49ers tight end George Kittle still functioning today?
00:13:46After the beers he was drinking yesterday at WrestleMania.
00:13:50And next to him, of course, from the Pacers.
00:13:52Tyrese Halliburk.
00:13:54I'm begging Tyrese to have a sip of the beer.
00:13:56Do this.
00:13:57Do this.
00:13:59Do this.
00:14:05Nice.
00:14:07Tony Hinchman is here.
00:14:09Monday on Netflix.
00:14:09Kill Tony.
00:14:10That was recorded last night here in Las Vegas.
00:14:14And also Glock.
00:14:16Glock Beach is tonight in Las Vegas.
00:14:18The party ticket still in L with GlockBeach.com.
00:14:21Anything you can do, Kittle, I can do better.
00:14:24Or maybe not.
00:14:25That was a like sip.
00:14:26I'm a bit disappointed, Glock.
00:14:29Oh, yes!
00:14:32You know, if we go tonight, we're going to have to do this.
00:14:35We should go.
00:14:36That's the incredible job.
00:14:38We'll book it right now.
00:14:39Are you going to wear your manchini again?
00:14:43The following is a street fight!
00:14:49There are no disqualifications, no countouts.
00:14:53The only way to win is by pinball or submission.
00:15:07The only way to win is by pinball or submission.
00:15:11The only way to win the game.
00:15:17The only way to win the game.
00:15:19You são midwest다는idamente.
00:15:21And we're on my side.
00:15:24So we've gotstrð em tracks.
00:16:44No, he's not paying homage to the great luchador Santo, who everyone believes may be the greatest luchador of all
00:16:50time.
00:16:51Dominic Mysterio took the mask off with a grimace.
00:16:55He's the greatest luchador of all time.
00:16:57In his mind, the jacket and boots he's wearing tonight, tribute to the great Hedo Aguayo.
00:17:03And Dominic Mysterio now heads into a street fight against the Demon.
00:17:07A street fight he wanted no part of against an opponent.
00:17:12He wanted no part of a contract.
00:17:15Specifically said Finn Balor in a straight-up match for that tyrant of a GM, Adam Pearce,
00:17:22has pulled the rug out of it from underneath the greatest luchador of all time, Dirty Dom.
00:17:28But fear not, Dirty Dom always rises to the occasion, if you don't believe me.
00:17:34Yeah.
00:17:34Mask Liv Morgan.
00:17:35On the countdown show today, our general manager out of here has made this a street fight where there are
00:17:40no rules.
00:17:41It wouldn't be a pinfall or submission.
00:17:48Dirty Dom was partying hard after his squeeze.
00:17:51Please live Morgan, won World Championship gold.
00:17:54Well, the star-crossed lovers could have a magnificent weekend here in Las Vegas.
00:18:01And that mask.
00:18:03You're a jackass.
00:18:04Michael got right in the face.
00:18:06It was superb.
00:18:07He could play quarterback.
00:18:08Better than the Jets quarterbacks anyway.
00:18:11I don't know what this liquid is that's all over me that was under this mask.
00:18:14Whether it's sweat.
00:18:16Championship juice.
00:18:18Great.
00:18:18That's just what I need.
00:18:19Dominic's juice.
00:18:22A lot of people want some of Dominic's juice.
00:18:24He's a real Lothario.
00:18:27I believe he winning this matchup against a mortal nemesis, a former clubmate in the Judgment Day.
00:18:34Already capped a superb weekend.
00:18:37Well, this match is presented tonight by Cricket 5G.
00:18:40Join Cricket Wireless and get reliable nationwide 5G on the AT&T network.
00:18:46Dominic needs to be on that network.
00:18:48He needs to dial 911 and quickly.
00:18:59We'll see you next time.
00:18:59We'll see you next time.
00:19:04We'll see you next time.
00:19:07We'll see you next time.
00:19:09We'll see you next time.
00:19:10We'll see you next time.
00:19:11We'll see you next time.
00:19:11We'll see you next time.
00:19:12We'll see you next time.
00:19:13We'll see you next time.
00:19:15We'll see you next time.
00:22:03And his opponent, the demon, Ben Ballard!
00:22:12Dominant Mysterio, welcome to hell!
00:22:19For the first time in three years!
00:22:22The demon is alive!
00:22:29And he's looking like a damn voodoo shaman.
00:22:32I mean, who the hell would want to fight that?
00:22:35Some of our deepest, darkest nightmares come to life.
00:22:40I'm ready to throw down with Dirty Dom.
00:22:42Well, Dom looks scared to death.
00:22:44Don't blame him!
00:22:45Talked a big game on the kickoff show this past Friday.
00:22:47I'm not scared of the demon.
00:22:49I'm going to go out there and take this guy out.
00:22:52Yet Dominic has yet to get in the ring.
00:22:55Well, taking out Finn Balor was how this all began.
00:23:00Yeah, one of the original members of the Judgment Day.
00:23:03And Dirty Dom has been a revolving cast in the Judgment Day since day one.
00:23:09Until unceremoniously ejected by Dirty Dom and friends.
00:23:15It was at WrestleMania last year.
00:23:17Dominic Mysterio would pin Finn Balor.
00:23:20And a fatal four-way to win the Intercontinental title.
00:23:22But this is the first time these two have gone one-on-one.
00:23:24And now Demon making his way across the ring.
00:23:28And if you're Mysterio Wade, what the hell do you do?
00:23:30You start running, first of all.
00:23:32And then you kind of don't stop until you get the hell out of the stadium and into your rental
00:23:36car.
00:23:38However, I'm not Dirty Dom Mysterio.
00:23:41And Dirty Dom Mysterio is a prime fighter.
00:23:44And he's a champion.
00:23:45Yeah, the AAA Mega Champion.
00:23:47He's held it for over 200 days.
00:23:49Actually won the championship here in Las Vegas.
00:23:52Nice takedown by the Demon.
00:23:53Who now unloads on Dominic Mysterio.
00:23:57Here's the issue with this Demon persona of Finn Balor.
00:24:00Now this is his alter ego where he can unleash his darkest instincts.
00:24:05It's primal and it's almost unstoppable.
00:24:07It's where his artistic and wrestling sides meet.
00:24:10His personality changes, he says.
00:24:12When the war paint goes on.
00:24:13To your point, the more aggressive side is channeled.
00:24:17It's also where his highest career moment,
00:24:20winning the world championship back in 2016,
00:24:22was under this persona.
00:24:25So this does not bode well,
00:24:27given this horrific start for Dirty Dom.
00:24:33Yeah, Dominic just trying to get back somehow into this fight
00:24:36as the Demon wipes out Mysterio to the floor.
00:24:40Listen, Dirty Dom brought all of this upon himself.
00:24:45I'll tell you right now,
00:24:46Dirty Dom was originally the errand boy for the Judgment Day.
00:24:51You wanted to seize power,
00:24:52you were only doing that by taking out the top dog,
00:24:55and that top dog was Finn Balor.
00:24:58Remember, a street fight needs anything goes.
00:25:00Balor now, I should say Demon now,
00:25:02with a kendo stick.
00:25:04That's all he needs.
00:25:06This is major retribution after the abuse thrown
00:25:10at Finn Balor over the past several months.
00:25:13Well, Dominic did just what he does to anybody
00:25:14who's his elder.
00:25:15Look at his dad, Rey Mysterio.
00:25:17He finally said, I'm better than you.
00:25:19I don't need you.
00:25:19And what does he do?
00:25:20He kicks him out of the group.
00:25:21He does it to anybody who disrespects him.
00:25:24And Finn Balor certainly disrespected Dirty Dom.
00:25:26And now Dirty Dom out of the way.
00:25:28It takes the Demon down.
00:25:29And finally, for the first time tonight,
00:25:31Dominic's on offense.
00:25:32Yeah, and that's part of the issue in a street fight.
00:25:35You spend time looking for weaponry.
00:25:37Oh!
00:25:37You take your eye off your opponent.
00:25:40And now Dom unloading with a kendo stick to the Demon.
00:25:42And he's got the Demon really now.
00:25:46Kendo stick getting swung around with wild abandon.
00:25:49You can have someone's eye out with that.
00:25:51You might stop flexing and get in the ring
00:25:53while you've got the Demon down.
00:25:55If you were as sexy as Dirty Dom,
00:25:57you'd be flexing too, Michael Cole.
00:26:00And as it stands, please keep your suit on.
00:26:05This is the seventh time there's been a street fight
00:26:09in the history of WrestleMania.
00:26:11Believe it or not, he's doing a little research here.
00:26:13I want to thank my stat guys back in Connecticut.
00:26:16John Chick, Greg Miller, for all the great help this weekend.
00:26:19Dominic Mysterio, Finn Balor have both been
00:26:21in three street fight matches in their career.
00:26:24I'm surprised at that stat, especially as it comes to Dominic.
00:26:28Well, Dirty Dom is a well-rounded competitor.
00:26:31Why is that so much career success?
00:26:34And the fact that people like you are still naysayers
00:26:36to this day blows my mind, Michael Cole.
00:26:39Learn some respect.
00:26:40Wait, naysayer is not the right word.
00:26:42Is he to see Dominic go after Dina?
00:26:44I completely think Dominic's a great actor.
00:26:47He's been a great champion.
00:26:48It's the way he carries himself, the way he disrespects his dad,
00:26:52the way he disrespects elders like Finn Balor.
00:26:55That's what gets me about Mysterio.
00:26:57Well, if you treat Dark Dirty Dominic Mysterio badly,
00:27:00he will repay that tenfold.
00:27:02And certainly his dad, Rey Mysterio, treated him horribly.
00:27:05And Finn Balor of late has done the same.
00:27:08That's one way to look at it.
00:27:09In the entire history of Finn Balor over the past four years,
00:27:12the success has all revolved around the numbers game of the first day.
00:27:16And Finn Balor turned his back on that.
00:27:19And now the Demon with a sling blade.
00:27:22This is the Demon now ratcheting up through the gears,
00:27:27taking punishment, and it's just bounced off him.
00:27:30And Dominic caught him with a super kick.
00:27:32And Mysterio's very resilient.
00:27:35There's no doubt about that.
00:27:36And he's the master of the 6-1-9.
00:27:38From the other side, connecting to the Demon.
00:27:41And now, going to go up top.
00:27:42What a win this would be for Dominic Mysterio.
00:27:45Frostblast, cover, isn't it enough to put the Demon away?
00:27:49A kick out at one, at one.
00:27:51That was Sean Bennett.
00:27:52Couldn't believe how quick that was.
00:27:54Yeah, that was absolutely freakish.
00:27:56Dom has won countless matches with that combo.
00:27:59Simply not enough tonight against this version of the Demon.
00:28:05And, you know, in many ways, uh-oh, Demon now.
00:28:09Down goes Dom.
00:28:12Just otherworldly athleticism from this man.
00:28:16How do you possibly contend with an opponent who is capable of what the Demon is?
00:28:21Dominic sent into the corner by the Demon.
00:28:24Now the Demon measuring his man.
00:28:27And again into the corner goes Dom.
00:28:29Teeing off at will.
00:28:31And nothing Dom is doing now is working.
00:28:33Well, he's in the drop zone, too.
00:28:35And he better get out of there.
00:28:36Or it could be the end for Dirty Dom.
00:28:38Went for the coup de grace.
00:28:40And Dominic Mysterio with a steel chair.
00:28:42Off the face of the Demon.
00:28:44Tremendous presence of mind there from Dom.
00:28:46Look for the leg.
00:28:48David this time at two in their fall from Mysterio.
00:28:51Yeah, well, that was a late, late kick out there after the steel glance off the skull of the Demon.
00:28:57Take another look at this attempt at the coup de grace that would have ended it.
00:29:01Met with cold, hard steel to the forehead.
00:29:06That is a late, late kick out there.
00:29:08Suddenly the Demon not feeling quite as imposing as he was several moments ago.
00:29:13Dominic now taking this opportunity.
00:29:16To pull out some more hardware.
00:29:22And with the Demon down.
00:29:24Build a method of destruction.
00:29:26A method of torture that will finish the job for good.
00:29:31What a weekend it would be for the Judgment Day.
00:29:34If Dom can win tonight.
00:29:36Liv Morgan won the world title last night at WrestleMania Saturday.
00:29:39Dom's girlfriend.
00:29:41Well, they're one and one right now.
00:29:43Now, poor J.D. McDonough unsuccessful in the ladder match earlier tonight.
00:29:47It was incredible, but not quite enough on the night for this to tip it in the favor of the
00:29:53Judgment Day.
00:29:54But I do not like the look in the eyes of the Demon here.
00:29:57See, Dominic took a little bit too much time there.
00:30:00And the Demon able to capitalize.
00:30:02The Street Ball, oh God, here we go.
00:30:04Demon though, almost into the table.
00:30:06Able to stop himself.
00:30:07Another slick way to Dom.
00:30:09And all the momentum now back squarely with the Demon.
00:30:19Super kick stops the Demon in his trap.
00:30:22Now into the table, which collapses on the Demon.
00:30:25Just a bone-crunching thud there from the Demon.
00:30:29Demon, I don't care what mystical powers you may have.
00:30:32That will take anybody down.
00:30:37Oh God.
00:30:38Dom going for a secret.
00:30:406-1-9 now.
00:30:43Connecting.
00:30:44And the Demon stunned.
00:30:46With an absolute thud.
00:30:49And now, it surely is game over.
00:30:52Thog splash.
00:30:53Cover.
00:30:55Demon again at two.
00:30:58And now if you're Dominic, you gotta do what the hell do I do to put this guy away?
00:31:01Well, it's a combination of disbelief and sheer fear at this point.
00:31:06Because a 6-1-9 still assisted.
00:31:09Followed up by a beautifully executed frog splash.
00:31:14It should be over.
00:31:15But somehow, unfathomably, it's not.
00:31:19You saw Dominic almost questioning himself moments ago.
00:31:22As you look on, massive crowd again tonight.
00:31:24Over 50,000 at Allegiant Stadium.
00:31:27Completely legal.
00:31:29Street fight rules.
00:31:30Steel chair.
00:31:31Wearing out the Demon.
00:31:33Just an example of superstars raising their game on the biggest stage of them all here at WrestleMania.
00:31:39You have to dig deeper than normal.
00:31:42Now what's he looking for?
00:31:48Now another table.
00:31:49First one broke.
00:31:51Let's...
00:31:51To Dom's advantage.
00:31:52Let's do it again.
00:31:53It broke due to the carcass of the Demon being thrown through it.
00:31:58One didn't do it.
00:31:59Maybe two will.
00:32:05Demon has not moved since he's getting worn out with a chair.
00:32:10He's going to absolutely wallop four or five times in a row.
00:32:15Knocking the stuffing out of the Demon, whose hopes at this point look to be going up in smoke.
00:32:21I mean, this would be a massive upset for Dominic Mysterio tonight.
00:32:25He's having issues with this table.
00:32:26And just a beat extra there could always prove pivotal in this kind of match.
00:32:31And now getting mocked by this audience.
00:32:33It's disgraceful from his packed attendance here in Las Vegas.
00:32:36Why is it disgraceful?
00:32:37Uh-oh, Demon's up.
00:32:44That's why it's disgraceful.
00:32:45They distracted him and now the Demon is in full command.
00:32:49And Dominic Mysterio about to get worn out.
00:33:00Just savagely beating Dirty Don Mysterio in a match that Dirty Don wanted no part of to be clicked.
00:33:06A little payback for what Dom and JD McDonough did to Finn Balor.
00:33:10They kicked him out of Judgment Day.
00:33:13Oh, God.
00:33:13What are you cooking up here?
00:33:14Well, Dom is trapped.
00:33:15Trapped in the steel chair.
00:33:20Oh, my goodness.
00:33:23Dom's neck just snapped backwards.
00:33:28Dom may be out.
00:33:31The Demon going up top.
00:33:34Dom's defenseless.
00:33:34Dom's.
00:33:37Go to cross.
00:33:39Through the table.
00:33:44One, two, three, four, three.
00:33:47The Demon wins.
00:33:50Here is your winner.
00:33:53The Demon.
00:33:55Ben Balor.
00:33:57Well, an incredibly grisly affair, a ferocious beatdown of both men, but this man, the demon,
00:34:09may be superhuman after what he absorbed to bounce back and score victory.
00:34:34Well, Dirty Dom, as I mentioned before, brought all of this upon himself.
00:34:42He may be living with regret for a long time. This is when Finn Balor went ham with that steel
00:34:50chair.
00:34:51The demon completely taking control of this.
00:34:54In the closing moments, this dropkick did major damage to the neck of Dirty Dom, but this was the moment
00:35:01that finished it for good.
00:35:02The coup de grace on the top rope, through a table, and the broken and battered body of Dirty Dominic
00:35:11Mysterio simply had no chance from there.
00:35:17The demon has risen, and he's slain Dirty Dom.
00:35:27This spectacle in all of live entertainment, WrestleMania, and aerial coverage, brought to you by Goodyear.
00:35:32Legends aren't born, they're proven.
00:35:37From the ring to real life, Minute Maid and WWE are here to help you bring the juice when the
00:35:44day tries to tap you out.
00:35:45Ringside tonight, Michael Cole, Wade there.
00:35:48I want to know, Wade, why on earth we don't get an on-camera this entire show until we actually
00:35:56have a special guest with us at ringside.
00:35:58Please welcome our Priority Pass VIP guest for this match, Adam Weissman.
00:36:02Adam is here, sitting at ringside with Wade Nye for the next matchup.
00:36:06Welcome aboard, Adam. It's good that I've finally got a decent commentary partner.
00:36:10Somebody who doesn't perennially lie like Michael Cole.
00:36:17Great partner you are.
00:36:19The best.
00:36:56A storm...
00:36:59...is coming.
00:37:30...is coming.
00:37:31Let's go!
00:37:32Come on, ready go!
00:37:33Come on, ready go!
00:37:35Come on, ready go!
00:37:43Now all this is so hated!
00:37:45So hated!
00:38:08The Storm Jade Cargill, the current WWE Champion, who is 2-0 in her career at WrestleMania, and hopes to
00:38:21continue that winning streak tonight.
00:38:24Because for the first time ever, she goes one-on-one with the eradicator, Rhea Ripley.
00:38:34And tonight's Women's Championship match is presented by Minute Maid.
00:38:39Bring the juice, and Wade, we know Jade Cargill will bring the juice.
00:38:44This is one of the greatest physical specimens, male or female, this industry has ever seen, but it ain't just
00:38:51looks.
00:38:52This woman knows exactly how to use a supreme being, a supreme athlete, a supreme champion.
00:39:04This is what you gotta say!
00:39:07OK, then you Für!
00:39:207 She's H-R-LCom
00:39:371
00:39:372
00:39:373
00:39:372
00:39:374
00:39:375
00:39:377
00:40:47She says Jade Cargill has been driving her insane over the past couple of months.
00:40:53This is her opportunity to break out and win the gold.
00:40:56She says Jade Cargill has driven a lot of people insane in many different ways but namely the women's locker
00:41:06room through her sheer dominance has looked unstoppable since winning the WWE Women's Championship.
00:41:14Nobody has really come close to the Groninger but undoubtedly this is the biggest test left that there is WrestleMania
00:41:23and Rhea bloody Ripley.
00:41:26And Ripley earned this match by winning the Elimination Chamber.
00:41:30Rhea has not held a world title in over a year.
00:41:35She hopes to end that round tonight.
00:41:39And we know from history that Rhea Ripley can hit the heights at WrestleMania, one of the greatest matches I've
00:41:45personally ever seen.
00:41:46Three years ago, SoFi Stadium WrestleMania against Charlotte Flair.
00:41:51There was really the big coming out party for Rhea Ripley at the very top level of this industry and
00:41:58she's never looked back.
00:41:59Let's head up to the ring now and the great Alicia Taylor.
00:42:10The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:42:15And it is for the WWE Women's Championship.
00:42:24Welcome to the WWE Women's Championship.
00:42:26And it is for the WWE Women's Championship.
00:42:26Introducing first the challenger from Adelaide, South Australia, Rhea Ripley.
00:42:44And her opponent from Vero Beach, Florida.
00:42:51she is the wwe women's champion jade jade cargo said that i don't need the championship
00:43:09i'm a star i'm a prototype for rhea ripley this is about defending the honor of our industry
00:43:17against who she says is an outsider who's having success at this level it is time to teach jade
00:43:24cargo a lesson that's what rhea ripley says tonight yeah i couldn't disagree any more strongly with
00:43:29what ripley just said there jade cargo is not an outsider jade cargo had a very different path to
00:43:36get here than rhea ripley but here she is because she's earned it she deserves it and she has the
00:43:42gold for a reason and only well several reasons and only one of those is because she looks at
00:43:47damn good with it should be an interesting matchup for rhea because rhea is not used to being in a
00:43:54match with someone as powerful and as big as she is yeah not at all jade cargo has presence power
00:44:01and
00:44:01aura all from that body built in the heavens and now rhea ripley used to be in the dominant one
00:44:08in
00:44:08the ring may not have it her own way for once and now jade powering rhea into the ropes and
00:44:16the
00:44:16official gonna throw cargill to break as jade says get out of my face not the only time but
00:44:23and now oh jay with a shoulder tackle i'll tell you right now there's some real hatred between these
00:44:28two wins oh we've seen it spill out from the ring all the way into social media there's some locker
00:44:34room friction between them they need to be kept separated behind the scenes at raw smackdown and
00:44:39indeed at wrestlemania but now and there's no holding them back from behind and a kick delivered
00:44:46and now up goes cargill and down she goes face first ripley now basement dropkick and cargill out to
00:44:54the apron and outside the ring well a wake-up call there for jay cargill undoubtedly the most skilled
00:45:00in-ring competitor is rhea ripley but incredibly smart and crafty is jade cargill jade claims it's
00:45:07jealousy in its bitterness and i agree power slam wow that was beautiful cover by the champ kick out
00:45:14but it's easy to hate on jade cargill if you are sharing a locker room with her of course everyone
00:45:21taking a picture a photograph they want jade cargill first they roll the red carpet out for jade cargill
00:45:27because she just looks like a star people don't want to accept that she can back it up but the
00:45:33truth
00:45:34this she certainly can maybe she should treat people better then look at her taking out rhea
00:45:38ripley now on the corner
00:45:49two women who see themselves as the most dominant legitimate and alpha competitors in the world and
00:45:57are simply not prepared to take a backward step from one another oh and jade now right to the small
00:46:02the
00:46:03back of ripley this has been great strategy so far for cargill well everything's worked so far
00:46:07ripley had a little story in there but now pure power has taken over you have to say based on
00:46:12the
00:46:13early goings here the power advantage is firmly in the corner of jake cargill and again a bit of a
00:46:17wake-up call perhaps for rhea tonight yeah you're not gonna have it easy you might talk some smart you
00:46:23might say this woman is not worthy there's a reason she has the gold there's a reason she's right
00:46:28here at wrestlemania and the world talks about her and i actually like the fact that she rolled into
00:46:32the ring to break out the count she wants to pin ripley tonight and prove to the world who's the
00:46:37boss well we all know rhea ripley does not want to win anything easily she wants to prove her dominance
00:46:43every single time well exactly the same mindset is jay cargill now cargill with rhea up and down
00:46:52goes ripley here's the cover is it enough in a kick out by cargill it's a nice blue thunder bomb
00:46:59there but
00:46:59didn't do enough and that might have antagonized jay cargill a little bit here
00:47:06and now cargill measuring ripley who's gonna get in trouble look at the smile on car well i'm gonna say
00:47:11smile on cargo space but rhea's as well rhea is somebody who does not feel fear pain we certainly
00:47:16know that much oh wow nice take down and look at this cross face applied in the center of the
00:47:23ring and i
00:47:23like that from jay cargill big swing and a miss and i like rhea ripley i like the quickness we
00:47:29saw
00:47:30out of cargo there as well she almost baited ripley in there gave it a little pause gave her a
00:47:34little
00:47:35space ripley thought now it's my turn uh-uh no it's not
00:47:41we're trying to fight out of this yeah easier said than done with someone as powerful as jay cargill but
00:47:47wait a second here that is a huge frame to be powering up and just took a beat too long
00:47:55for rhea
00:47:56ripley and ripley now once again down oh jay stop your inner tracks with that kick a capoeira kick right
00:48:03to the side of the head of jay cargill she was not anticipating that such a strange angle for a
00:48:10kick to
00:48:10come from and clearly cargill has never experienced that before ripley now trying to find something
00:48:17anything to give her hope in this match down goes cargill and now ripley unloading
00:48:22dropping pound away and out it's jade cargill turning things around on rhea now we're in a fight
00:48:53and now jade's down because rhea have a chance here well ripley now growing in confidence after
00:49:00riding out that storm excuse the pun and oh my god ripley oh cargill down she landed awkwardly
00:49:08covered by ripley hook of the leg and a kick out jay lady right on her face well historically
00:49:13speaking when rhea ripley feels like her dominance is threatened that's when the best of ripley
00:49:20comes out to play and i feel like we're nearing that territory now but the question is
00:49:24how much damage has ripley already absorbed
00:49:33rhea trying to regroup here gonna shake off those cobwebs back to her feet looking for riptide
00:49:39looking to end this thing on cargill jade though able to cover with a hip toss cargill is simply too
00:49:45powerful jade sent through out to the apron catches rhea with a right up over the top now nice lands
00:49:54on her
00:49:54feet back elbow by rhea kick by jade cargill's just a step ahead
00:50:03rhea kicks it too how impressive has jade cargill been in that ring tonight she's done everything
00:50:11correct she's making rhea ripley look average and i never thought i would say that it's a great way to
00:50:18put
00:50:20it it's unthinkable and it might be the end here looking for jaded rhea ripley in deep deep trouble
00:50:26able to slip underneath hitting combination for the championship and a kick out just when you start
00:50:32right in cargill off oh god we are trying to fight out of this now a nice take down to
00:50:39the hurricane and
00:50:40lucha skills showing off now and rhea now with a kick this shows you the breadth of the offense that
00:50:47rhea
00:50:47ripley is capable of that's that veteran presence now kicking in planet oh look who's here
00:50:54it's meechin the menace who has been attacking ripley on behalf
00:50:59ripley looking for the razor's edge and b fab saving jade cargill from the razor's edge there
00:51:07cargill recruited b fab and meet you know the recent weeks to attack
00:51:13the referee missed the entire thing
00:51:17and now the official deal with jade again this is going to allow mechin with yet another cheap shot
00:51:22three-on-one affair here against ripley mitchin being an absolute menace on the outside of the
00:51:28ring here and ripley it might be good night time jade with ripley up on her shoulders electric chair
00:51:34position into the sandstorm the sandstorm by cargill and a kick out
00:51:42i mean it was a kick out but it was a lazy kick out at best there's very little left
00:51:48in rhea ripley as
00:51:49we see the growing expanding arsenal of jade cargill who knew she had to try something different tonight
00:51:57against the competitor as accomplished as rhea ripley and almost got the job done absolutely got
00:52:03too deep on the inside and distracting rhea as well whatever it takes you know full well mammy is
00:52:09gonna bring it and you have to be at your absolute best and maybe more if you're gonna beat her
00:52:18well the plan was in the plan didn't work now we've been hastily putting together
