00:00Oh
00:24The following is an open challenge
00:30Introducing first, from Lagos, Nigeria
00:33Waking at 310 times
00:38Hoopa Femi
00:44The ruler, the beast slayer
00:48The man who retired Brock Lesnar
00:51Hoopa Femi is here
01:21The time has come
01:23the Obafemi Open Challenge
01:26will now begin
01:39Oba looks intrigued
01:41is it going to be Tozawa?
01:45or perhaps Otis
01:47yeah
01:54it's one thing to accept an open challenge
01:56to try to make a name for yourself
01:58at somebody's expense
01:59but Tozawa is his career suicide
02:08okay well let's see what Tozawa's got here
02:11I'll tell you what he doesn't got
02:12both oars in the water
02:15this guy's out of his mind
02:21well you said it
02:22make a name for yourself
02:35I'm sure how wise this is
02:48well Tozawa thought twice about it
02:50and now the 330 pound Otis
02:53steps into the ring
02:55and this is interesting Corey
02:57a few years back
02:59these two
03:00they collided in NXT
03:03but these are far different from then
03:06well you talk about the importance
03:07of momentum in this business
03:09nobody has as much momentum
03:11as Obafemi does these days
03:13the man who slayed the beast
03:15at Wrestlemania
03:16yeah but can you imagine
03:18what it would do for Otis
03:19if he could knock off the ruler tonight
03:21it would change Otis' career
03:23it would change his life
03:27shoulder tackled
03:28Femi still on his feet
03:30as Otis and Femi go nose to nose
03:33and Femi now
03:34runs right into Otis
03:45Otis
03:46and Femi with one to Otis
03:48Otis with momentum now
03:50oh
03:51good god
03:52what an uppercut from Femi
03:54dropping Otis
03:57and now Femi
03:58330 pounds
04:00crossed across the ring
04:02he did
04:03he just picked up a 330 pound man
04:06and threw him across the ring
04:08the ruler is not human
04:17he's not gonna
04:19is he gonna try it
04:23oh

04:28he's got a plan
04:30of some sort
04:32oh
04:32he lifts
04:33Otis up now
04:34to the second rope
04:36I'm not sure Otis
04:37is comfortable up there
04:38yeah
04:39Femi using his head
04:40smart move by Femi
04:42can he get the 330 pounder up

31:31danhausen and a mystery partner
31:34who in their right mind would
31:35team up with danhausen
31:37somebody that loves money and
31:39also we saw this uh earlier
31:41tonight it has reached ahead
31:42years and years in the making
31:44eo sky one-on-one with her
31:46former mentor asuka
31:49and you referred to it as a
31:51family civil war it goes down
31:54this saturday as the world
31:56heavyweight champion the otc
31:58roman reigns defends his gold for
32:00the first time since winning it
32:02at wrestlemania against the
32:04samoan werewolf jacob
32:06five two
32:36and
35:33And it never happened.
35:34And that has eaten Jacob Batu up inside.
35:38That's exactly what it is.
35:40Jacob Batu has been seething.
35:41He goes to bed at night thinking about the fact that he's missed out on opportunities.
35:45Potentially millions and millions of dollars, a different life for his family and right, wrong
35:52or indifferent, Jacob Batu blames this man, blames Roman Reigns, the head of the table, for
35:58leaving him in the dump.
35:59Well, guess what?
36:01Well, guess what?
36:01Jacob Batu loses Saturday.
36:03He's going to be acknowledging that man in the ring.
36:16The door is open for the door is open for the world heavyweight champion, Roman Reigns is here to sign
36:27his contract to base his cousin, Jacob Batu, Saturday at Backlash with the prestigious world title on the line.
37:06And his opponent for the World Heavyweight Championship at Backlash.
37:12And his opponent for the World Heavyweight Championship.
37:47Corey, for the past couple of weeks, this man, Jacob Batu, has had the element of surprise.
37:53He surprised Roman Reigns with the challenge a couple of weeks ago that he won the World Heavyweight Championship.
37:59He surprised Roman Reigns with the attack last week and the Tongan Death Grips.
38:04The problem for Batu now is he has no more surprises.
38:08He is looking in the eyes of a focused Roman Reigns who is very wary of what this man is
38:14capable of.
38:15We saw how Roman Reigns arrived to the arena tonight to kick off Monday Night Raw.
38:20The tribal chief is irate.
38:23Trust me, Jacob Batu knows exactly what he's doing.
38:28The Samoan Werewolf is playing mind games with the OTC.
38:32When's the last time you saw Roman Reigns lose his cool like he did earlier tonight?
38:36Jacob Batu's playing with house money, right?
38:39He has nothing to lose.
38:48Gentlemen, you know how this works.
38:50Two signatures make the match official.
39:18Now, Pierce, you know how this works.
39:22Omaha, Nebraska.
39:32Acknowledge me.
39:54You hear that, Jacob?
39:57That's not just love.
40:01That's the sound of respect.
40:09You don't think I know where you come from, little cousin?
40:12You don't think I was watching from afar?
40:15That respect wasn't earned from just hanging out here.
40:18Nah, you was grinding for, what, 12 years?
40:20Well, I've been here for over 12 years.
40:31I was the one in this company that had my foot holding the door open for Solo.
40:38Solo was the one that brought you in, huh?
40:40Well, guess what?
40:40I brought Solo in.
40:41Therefore, I brought you in.
40:45And I will be damned if there is not respect to be had in this business for me.
41:08You see, with that respect, there's got to be a code.
41:12There's got to be some kind of honor system amongst our family.
41:15We can't just run around here and bogart everybody and run roughshod.
41:19No, there's got to be a system of conduct that we can hang our hat on.
41:25You understand?
41:30The Tongan death grip.
41:35You disrespect me with something that you save for desperate measures?
41:42I mean, what do you think this is?
41:44We're in the bar at 3 a.m.
41:46And you're surrounded 8 to 1.
41:48That's when you pull out the Tongan death grip.
41:50That's when you snap somebody's throat.
41:53You don't do that to family.
41:55You don't do that to your own.
41:57You don't do that to your tribal chief.
42:03Man, hold on.
42:04What?
42:07Tribal chief?
42:09Hey, that's when you got it all wrong and you don't understand.
42:15Yes, I am desperate.
42:18Yes, it feels like it's just me against the world.
42:23Yes, my back is against the wall.
42:27So I have no other choice but to take you out.
42:31Take this title and everything that comes with it.
42:43And to keep it 100.
42:47Then I'm going to put a choke hold on this game.
42:51And I'm going to squeeze out every dollar and every cent just the way this company been doing our family
43:00for decades.
43:04So when I'm talking about all gas, no brakes with it, it doesn't mean slowing down.
43:11It means moving forward and never going back to where I came from.
43:21So yes, Roman, I am desperate.
43:26I'm desperate enough to do anything for my household, even if I got to run through my own blood.
43:34This is what I'm talking about here.
43:36Household.
43:37Man, let me just, let me, let's just get this out the way.
43:48You over here talking about your household.
43:51I just told you I've been up here over a decade grinding from multiple households.
43:58You worried about seven kids?
44:00I'm worried about 170 kids that fulfill our family.
44:05You worried about higher education?
44:07I'm worried about generation after generation of higher education.
44:13Because I'm the one that can do that.
44:16I got the proof of concept.
44:18I got the respect.
44:19This company, they want to do business with me.
44:22I already told you.
44:24I told Brock a long time ago.
44:26This is all mine.
44:29This is my ring.
44:31And yes, in our family, we're equals.
44:35We're of the same blood.
44:38But in this ring, Jacob, you're beneath me.
44:46Oh, it.
44:46Fatou lost it.
44:47Fatou right after Raze with a tongue and death rip.
44:50Roman trying to counter it does.
44:53Jacob wasn't able to have it since then perfectly.
44:56And I talked to you about no surprises tonight from Fatou.
45:03Roman title in hand.
45:05Jacob Fatou, though, with a tongue and death rip it again.
45:09Roman trying to fight out of it.
45:13And this is going to be a war on Saturday.
45:15An absolute bloody civil war.
45:19Reigns now proving his prediction to be accurate.
45:23Standing over.
45:24Oh, no, no, no.
45:25He's not.
45:27I think he's got it locked in this time.
45:28But nope, Reigns again creates separation.
45:31Went with a Superman punch.
45:33Intercepted by Fatou.
45:35Jacob has it in.
45:36Good job, Pierce.
45:37Get in there.
45:37Yeah, Pierce trying to separate these two.
45:39Not able to.
45:40Fatou's got it locked in.
45:42The tribal team is fading.
45:44Reigns gasping for air.
45:46And now Fatou just put Reigns through the table.
45:54Out of control.
45:55All unhinged.
45:58A desperate man is a dangerous man.
46:02Let's do this.
46:06Let's do this.
46:08Let's do this.
46:08Let's do this.
46:09Let's do this.
46:09Fatou.
46:10Fatou.
46:10Fatou.
46:11Fatou.
46:11Fatou.
46:12Jacob Fatou is desperate.
46:15Jacob Fatou is hungry.
46:22He needs this for himself.
46:24He needs this for his family.
46:26Jacob Fatou is a dangerous obstacle for his cousin, Roman Reigns.
46:33Come Saturday at Backlash.
46:37He needs this for himself.
46:38He needs this for himself.
46:39He needs this for himself.
46:40He needs this for himself.
46:40He needs this for himself.
46:40He needs this for himself.
46:41We'll be back.
