00:52he called the audible before our very eyes utilized the move we've never seen him use before and picked up
00:59the win as a result.
01:01And perhaps more importantly, Ethan Page just pinned the Intercontinental Champion.
01:08Absolutely right.

03:25J.D., a massive congratulations to you on your victory tonight.
03:29Although you had considerable help in defeating your former friend and
03:33mentor Finn Balor.
03:36I'll just put you off right there, Byron, okay?
03:38Cuz I am sick of this mentor narrative that everyone's pushing on me.
03:43Like Finn Balor taught me everything I know.
03:45You know what the best thing Finn Balor ever did for my career?
03:49The best thing Finn Balor ever did for my career was
03:53introducing me to this man right here, Dirty Dom, and the rest of the Judgment Day.
03:59See, the Judgment Day, we don't need Finn Balor.
04:02We outsmarted Finn Balor, and we beat him.
04:05We kicked out the Deadwood, and we did what Judgment Day do.
04:08And we will continue to run Monday Night Raw.
04:13On that note, I do have to ask.
04:15We saw an awkward interaction between Roxanne Perez and Finn Balor.
04:20It begs the question, are things really united within the Judgment Day?
04:24Here, how about I answer that for you, Byron?
04:35No, no, no.
04:37We're past that now.
04:40Byron, my guy JD beat Finn Balor in the middle of that ring.
04:46One, two, three.
04:49I am still your triple-A mega-campeon, right?
04:56Did you get that?
04:57Get the title.
04:58Get the title.
04:59Yeah.
05:00Liv Morgan, the greatest women's world champion of all time.
05:06And you mentioned Roxanne, right?
05:10What did Roxanne do?
05:11She helped the Judgment Day win in the middle of that ring.
05:16She helped JD.
05:17So you're talking about all these problems.
05:20Roxanne and Raquel are gonna be your new women's tag team champions.
05:25And we're gonna show you why the Judgment Day will continue to run Monday Night Raw.
05:35Anything else?
05:37Are you done?
05:38I'm done here.
05:52Saturday, after the biggest weekend in WWE,
05:57what happens at WrestleMania doesn't stay there.
06:01Sweet, sweet revenge.
06:03It follows you.
06:05And in Tampa, it hits back.
06:09All scores are settled.
06:12It's personal.
06:14It's backlash.
06:20It's backlash.
06:27Welcome back to Monday Night Raw.
06:30We are live in Omaha on Netflix, and it's presented by DoorDash.
06:34Well, our general manager, Adam Pearce, has had a busy night already.
06:39Adam Pearce is in the ring.
06:47You know, when I was a coach at NXT, my favorite, my absolute favorite days were the ones when a
06:54surefire can't miss.
06:57This blue chip future superstar saw their dreams come true when they got the opportunity to sign one of these
07:05to join Raw or SmackDown.
07:09Guys, today is one of those days.
07:13Let's take a look.
07:15Let's take a look.
07:18Sol Ruka is here!
07:21The former NXT North American champion.
07:24Sol Ruka will be a megastar.
07:33One of the most acrobatic superstars the women's division has ever seen.
07:39Double champion in NXT.
07:44Number 10, Sol Ruka.
07:48Sol Snatcher!
07:50Sol Ruka riding the wave of momentum.
07:54She is just that damn good.
08:03Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in welcoming the newest member of Monday Night Raw, Sol Ruka!
08:20How good is Sol Ruka?
08:22How much time do we have?
08:24Ask the world champion Lynn Morgan about it.
08:27Ask Bailey about it after the collision of Saturday night's main event.
08:31Here is a young woman who has only been wrestling for four years.
08:36She was part of the NIL program when she left the University of Oregon as a gymnast to come train
08:43here at NXT.
08:44And she is now part of Monday Night Raw.
08:48Sol Ruka has exhibited an unbelievable aptitude for this business in a very short period of time.
08:54This woman is going to be a major player for years to come.
09:01What a get by our general manager.
09:04What a get by our general manager.
09:17Sol, congratulations.
09:20Let's幕府, congratulations.
09:23Let's go to the city of Charlie Brown.
09:24Are you sure the new one?
09:30Let's go!
09:32Let's go!
09:34Let's go!
09:35Let's go!
09:37Let's go!
09:39Let's go!
09:40Damn!
09:41It is going to feel so damn good when I sign this and officially be a part of Monday Night
09:50Raw.
09:50tonight, Raw.
10:01Of course.
10:05The man has come around to Sol Ruka's contract signing.
10:12Of course, steal the spotlight.
10:15Spotlight stealing Becky.
10:16I think Becky might be out here to add a little more spotlight to Sol Ruka.
10:21It's not fair of you to assume Becky's out here for nefarious purposes.
10:25Although that may be likely.
10:28I know, Penny Pierce, I've been looking for you all day.
10:32Really?
10:33I was told that this was my allotted time for
10:36my celebration of greatness.
10:37Who told you that?
10:39It doesn't matter, but they're very credible, very reliable source, okay?
10:44But after my monumental WrestleMania, you came out and illegally sanctioned a match
10:51against Io Gennetti, okay?
10:54Which explicitly went against the parameters of my very generous open challenge.
11:00But still, even with your meddling, I secured a victory.
11:05Yeah, we all saw that.
11:06A very uncontroversial victory, because I'm the greatest female wrestler of all time,
11:10and it's not just me saying it.
11:11Other people are saying it, okay?
11:13Everybody's saying it.
11:14Are you done?
11:21No, actually, I'm not done.
11:23The New York Times says it.
11:25In fact, I'm a New York Times best-selling author.
11:28Well, Becky, not everything is about you.
11:40You, you, you, you are, you're very new.
11:43This is your first day, but the sooner you learn this, the better.
11:46Actually, everything is about me.
11:49Well, not this, all right?
11:51Everyone knows who you are.
11:52I know who you are.
11:53I know what you've done, and I know everything that you've accomplished.
11:57But the thing is, I didn't expect to find out when I met you that you are exactly what
12:04everyone says that you are.
12:10The man, historical, the greatest ever, legendary.
12:14No, no, no, no.
12:15Groundbreaker.
12:16A rude, big-headed bitch.
12:23And it's not just me saying it.
12:26It's the New York Times.
12:28It's Sports Illustrated.
12:29Hey, hey, hey, hey.
12:30I know that you're terrible at your job, but are you going to let her talk to me like
12:34this?
12:35Are you going to let her talk to me like this?
12:38Are you all going to let her talk to me like this?
12:47I'm going to be over here.
12:48I'm going to be over here.
12:50I'm sorry.
12:51I'm sorry.
12:53I'm going to be over here.
12:55I'm going to be over here.
12:59Who are you?
13:02They're going to be over here.
13:07You're going to be over here.
13:10I'm Soul Rukha.
13:12And if you ever interrupt me again, not only will I kick your ass, I'll snatch your soul.
13:30I am so tired of you.
13:38Can you have a purpose?
13:40Thank you very much.
13:42I need a damn time.
13:45Tough night for Pierce.
13:49Oh, no, no, no, here it go.
13:51Here we go, soul snatcher.
13:57Well, that might shut Becky up for a while.
13:59And I agree with everything Soul Ruka and the New York Times and
14:03the Bleacher Report and Sports Illustrated and they all said about Becky Lynch.
14:06Literally none of those outlets said what Soul said they said, okay?
14:10That would be a journalism nightmare.
14:13We're talking lack of integrity.
14:16I subscribe to Bleacher Report.
14:18I subscribe to all the places that Becky Lynch tells me to subscribe to.
14:22But the only authentic journalistically credible outlet in the world these days.
14:27It's not just me saying that there's a lot of people in Omaha.
14:31Are you done?
14:32Soul Ruka is officially part of Monday Night Raw.
14:35Becky Lynch not quite the way she wanted the night to go.
14:39Well, we've talked about this throughout the night.
14:40Jacob Fatu has started a family civil war with Roman Reigns and company.
14:46Case in point, Friday night on SmackDown.
14:50Guys, there's plenty of Jacob to go around for all of us, okay?
14:55Solo, we're not asking you.
14:58We're telling you, Us.
15:02Solo would give the signal and Tala Tonga would single-handedly destroy both Usos.
15:08But later that night, the tables would be turned against Tala Tonga courtesy of the Samoan Werewolf.
15:16Jacob Fatu, who would then beat Solo to the strike, landing the Tonga death grip before the Samoan spike could
15:24connect.
15:24And just when it seemed as though Jacob Fatu's portions would run out, he himself would drive Tala Tonga through
15:32the announce table.
15:33But things are certainly anything but copacetic between the Usos.
15:43Jimmy, Jay, fancy seeing you guys here, what's up?
15:46I was hoping I could ask how you're feeling ahead of tonight's big contract signing between Roman Reigns and Jacob
15:52Fatu.
15:53Oh, it's a big night, Jackie, yo.
15:55Big night. Contract signing night between the OTC and the Samoan Werewolf, and we wouldn't miss this for nothing.
16:01Listen, we got a lot of love for Jacob, but Jacob needs to understand how the OTC does business.
16:07Especially when the championship gold on the line.
16:11You feel me?
16:12I certainly can understand that, but aren't you at all conflicted considering your relationship with both?
16:19Nah, nah, Jackie, yo.
16:22This right here, family business, plain and simple.
16:27OTC know how to handle himself, right?
16:29Me and Jim here, just in case nothing popped off between Roman and Jacob, right?
16:35But Jacob, we already told you, Usos.
16:39You swimming in deep water now.
16:42You done bit off more than you can chew.
16:43Swinging for the fences, Usos.
16:45Aye, aye, we respect that though.
16:47But I'm telling you, Usos, the bloodline has been drawn.
16:51And that backlash, you gonna find out who you messing with, Jacob.
16:57Good luck, little cousin.
16:58Three, two, three, three.
17:07On both the OTC, the world champion, Roman Reigns, and his cousin, Jacob Batuu, will be in the ring later
17:15on tonight to make it official.
17:17the contract signing for their title match at Backlash later on tonight.
17:22And I got no plans to retire, and I'm still the man you admire.
17:25These chicks are spazzled.
17:26Say his name, say his name, no, no, no, Joe Hendry.
17:32Say his name and he'll appear.
17:34I believe in Joe Hendry.
17:38London and Paris and Tokyo, America's so.
17:43The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
17:47Introducing person from Edinburgh, Scotland,
17:50weighed in at 252 pounds of pure motivation, Joe Hendry.
18:02Joe Hendry motivates me to find the mute button, okay?
18:06This guy doesn't have a lick of musical talent.
18:08He was out here insulting the vision.
18:10The guys who are steering the ship for the place.
18:13The reason that you and me still get paychecks, Cole.
18:15The future of the business, and Hendry's out here singing his little ditty that he writes
18:20in his free time.
18:22That little ditty, I've had that damn song in my head for a week.
18:26I was singing it in the shower this morning.
18:29Sounds like a personal problem.
18:31Hendry in theory next.
18:43Corey, here's the deal, he is a true musician.
18:46He used to be the lead singer for a group called Lost in Audio that was almost signed to a
18:52contract.
18:54Luckily, their audio was lost, and they weren't signed to a contract.
18:58Which is why we, you and me, have to suffer through this week after week after week, Cole.
19:08Say his name because he has appeared in Omaha.
19:18Go Big Rock!
19:21Now, as you can see, I'm in my wrestling gear.
19:25But, I thought before we have a match, I thought Omaha might want a Joe Hendry concert.
19:32Yeah!
19:35Does Omaha want a Joe Hendry concert?
19:43Well, as you know, last week, I did a song about Logan Paul.
19:53And I wasn't so nice to Logan Paul, I felt bad.
19:56So I thought, why not come out and do a little apology concert for Logan Paul?
20:03Nice.
20:06Don't worry, you're gonna like it.
20:09Okay, and if you know the words, make sure that you sing along.
20:18And you may also clap your hands.
20:22I'll pass, thank you.
20:33Let's see those hands.
20:38Come on, Graves.
20:40Not now, not ever.
20:49We can change the world, but we all have to try.
20:57We can make things better, but it starts with you and I.
21:04We can save the world, all creatures big and small.
21:10Or we can email Adam Pearce to fire Logan Paul.
21:20Paul, can we fire Logan Paul?
21:25Paul, can we fire Logan Paul?
21:31Paul, he's one amazing athlete, but he's a piece of trash.
21:39He can shove his trading cards directly up his Paul.
21:48Paul, Paul, can we fire Logan Paul?
21:52Everyone.
21:54Paul, Paul, can we fire Logan Paul?
22:00I thought that I made it clear that you cannot fire me.
22:08I am unfire me.
22:09I am unfireable.
22:10I am unfireable.
22:10TKO cannot fire me because that is bad business.
22:14I am business.
22:16I am business.
22:17I am the heart and soul of the WWE.
22:21Paul, I know you're upset and I'm glad that you're here because I was just getting to
22:27the part of the song that's the apology.
22:29You're going to like it.
22:30It goes like this.
22:31Paul, Paul, can we fire Logan Paul?
22:37I'm going to kill him.
22:38I'm going to kill this guy.
22:40Then you can do something.
22:41Then you can do something.
22:41Logan's incensed.
22:42And here comes Terry, who's got this match tonight with Joe Hendry.
22:46They're still singing it, Cole.
22:49Joe Hendry is a walking earworm with absolutely no respect for the heart and soul of his business.
22:56I've got to handle it.
22:58Well, the officials in the ring and look like we're finally going to get this match underway.
23:03Austin Theory of the Vision against Joe Hendry.
23:05You just take it easy, Michael.
23:07Well, you can continue to live your E Street fan fantasies out here.
23:10I'll call the action.
23:12This is absolutely ridiculous.
23:14Good for Austin Theory for defending the honor of the Vision and Logan Paul.
23:18Why can't you just have fun and enjoy yourself?
23:21Oh, I'm having a blast right now.
23:23I love watching Austin Theory beat people up.
23:25A man who calls himself The Pressure.
23:28Looking to pick apart Henry on behalf of Logan Paul tonight.
23:32Paul Heyman put theory in this match tonight because he was afraid Logan Paul was going to lose it.
23:37He's distraught.
23:39Logan pacing around here like a caged animal.
23:42He's been insecure, I think.
23:44Take it.
23:45Take it.
23:47It's called insecurity, Corey.
23:49No, it's not insecurity.
23:50This is Logan Paul.
23:51Logan Paul is steering consistent.
23:53If he believes so.
23:54Okay, man.
23:55Okay.
23:56Well, watch.
23:57Listen, if Logan Paul believes so much in himself, why does he let some silly little song bother him so
24:03much?
24:03Because he's got thousands upon thousands of people chanting for his dismissal from the business and career that he so
24:09loves.
24:09It's a joke.
24:11It's not a joke.
24:12It's an insult.
24:13Logan Paul.
24:14Logan Paul.
24:16Logan Paul.
24:17Logan Paul.
24:17Look at what Henry started.
24:19I bet he's real proud of himself.
24:21Logan Paul.
24:22Logan Paul.
24:23Logan Paul.
24:24You don't suck, Logan.
24:25Don't listen to these people.
24:26They don't know much about anything that's not corn.
24:29God, I hope he hits you.
24:31Logan Paul hit me.
24:32I'm out here trying to calm down the situation.
24:35Theory trying to just end the night for Joe Hendry with a nice suplex.
24:41Good job.
24:42Good job.
24:43I like this.
24:43There we go.
24:44At least you are taunted out.
24:45At least Hendry can carry a tune.
24:51I'm on championship guard duty, Michael Cole.
24:53I'm making sure nothing happens for this beautiful championship.
24:56One of the tag team titles held by Logan Paul.
25:01Logan, relax.
25:02It's not the end of the world.
25:05There we go.
25:06Let him know, Logan.
25:10Uh-oh.
25:11Uh-oh.
25:11Henry!
25:12Great counter.
25:13With a suplex of his own.
25:18Joe Hendry now trying to rally Omaha once again.
25:27Henry teeing off on Theory.
25:31Oh!
25:33There's that big clothesline.
25:35He calls the Commonwealth clothesline.
25:37And he connected with Theory.
25:39And now the young man from Edinburgh, Scotland catches Theory.
25:43Coming off the ropes.
25:45With a big fall away slam.
25:48Theory like a soccer.
25:49Never mind.
25:50Look at the athleticism of Joe Hendry.
25:55I don't know what it is about this guy, but Omaha seems to like him.
26:00Oh!
26:00Logan Paul from behind.
26:02That'll throw a match out.
26:03And now Paul, who's had enough,
26:06insaced over this silly little song.
26:08Talk about acting like a child.
26:12And this is what Paul Haven was afraid of.
26:14Logan Paul losing it out here.
26:17I thought I called you all.
26:20Nobody can fire me!
26:23Yeah, but somebody can punch you on that, Joe Hendry.
26:26And now Theory from behind.
26:27And the numbers game now catching up on Joe.
26:30And the tag team champions go to work.
26:36Little song's not so cute now, is it, Mr. Hendry?
26:39He's got it!
26:40Go, go, go!
26:42Go, go, go, go!
26:43Our old tag team champions just stomping the fire out of Joe Hendry.
26:51We pointed this out earlier tonight.
26:53These two men have their eyes set on the vision of the tag team title.
26:56Angelo Dawkins, Montez Ford, the Street Profits are here.
27:01Down goes Logan Paul
27:05Look out
27:08And Theory going to go down as well
27:11Rock is with the silencer
27:13And the Street Profits are up
27:17I think Montez Ford is going up
27:21So is Theory
27:22Oh no, oh no
27:25And look who's here
27:26Braun Pranker with a vision
27:28Uh oh
27:29Branker who took out Rollins earlier tonight
27:30Just suplexed Ford over the damn top rope
27:34And now takes out Dawkins with a clothesline
27:38The unpredictable badass
27:41With a German suplex
27:44Braun Branker has been unleashed
27:56Rollins
27:56Rollins is back
27:58Rollins came through the crowd
28:00And like Seth said
28:02He ain't dead yet
28:03Braun Branker hasn't finished the job
28:08Rollins incensed after the sneak attack
28:10To kick off the show tonight
28:12These two meet Saturday at Backlash
28:15Rollins has said
28:16Branker should have taken him out for good
28:21And Logan Paul
28:22Austin Theory
28:23Trying to get involved
28:25Branker runs into a clothesline
28:27Stunt Rollins is fired up
28:38Uh oh
28:39Branker's in position
28:40Stunt Rollins
28:41Setting up Braun Branker

28:45All the way to hell

28:51And another spear
28:52From the dog
28:54Braun Branker
29:02Branker's sicking himself on Seth freaking Rollins tonight
29:10He almost got me
29:11Oh it is close
29:16Branker has big
29:19Big problems on hand

29:30Started at 6 Eastern

31:56I'm sorry
31:57I'm actually cracking up here
31:58I'm losing my marbles
31:59I'm seriously about to hit a gingerbread man
32:02In the middle of the ring in Tulsa, Oklahoma
32:04I'm sorry
32:06I'm sorry
32:07Hey, gingerbread man
32:08I'm sorry
32:09Alright?
32:09Hey
32:10Put her there
32:11Alright?
32:13Oh, come on, Sammy
32:19Really?
32:21Sammy Zayn came out here
32:22He seems to be having fun at first
32:24This is a durable ginger snap
32:28What the hell are you doing, Sammy?
32:32Tearing apart the gingerbread man
32:35Ripping his arm off
32:36I mean, in Sammy's defense
32:38This is a gingerbread man outfit
32:40That has raised the ire of Zayn
32:42Over the past several weeks
32:44Haunted
32:47With gumdrop button in hand
32:50Here comes
32:52Trick Williams after Sammy
32:54Looks like to save the day
32:56For the gingerbread man
32:57But enough trash has been taught
32:59And here is your repayment
33:02Sammy Zayn
33:03Trick with a massive right hand
33:05Come on, Sammy Zayn
33:06Come on, go
33:06Come on, go
33:07Come on, go
33:08Come on, go
33:09Come on
33:09See, we're gonna give him a little bit of his own medicine there
33:11Beating a hasty retreat
33:13Perhaps wisely so
33:14As the former United States champ
33:18Sammy Zayn
33:18Bainted his spleen
33:20But wanting no part of a brawl with Trick Williams
33:36So Trick Williams and Sammy Zayn meet at Backlash in Tampa this Saturday
33:41And I do want to apologize
33:42My American accent came out moments ago
33:44So before everybody around the world gets mad at me
33:46It's Bournemouth
33:47I know, I was gonna correct you
33:49Elsie, I corrected myself
33:51Hey, don't forget
33:52United States championship on the line
33:54It's Sammy and Trick
33:56Backlash

35:04You can check New York
35:22This year條件
35:22Of New
35:23York Harvard The
35:24Had
36:29The following is an open challenge scheduled for one call.
36:34Introducing first, from Lagos, Nigeria,
36:39weighing in at 310 times,
36:44Oba Femi!
36:49The ruler, the beast slayer,
36:54the man of retired Brock Lesnar,
36:57Oba Femi is here.
37:26The time has come.
37:28The Oba Femi Open Challenge
37:31will now begin.
37:44Oba looks intrigued.
37:47Is it going to be Tozawa?
37:59It's one thing to accept an open challenge
38:01and try to make a name for yourself
38:03at somebody's expense,
38:04but Tozawa, this is career suicide.
38:13Okay, well, let's see what Tozawa's got here.
38:16I'll tell you, when he doesn't got both oars in the water.
38:20This guy's out of his mind.
38:26Well, he said it, make a name for yourself.
38:40I'm not sure how wise this is.
38:53Well, Tozawa thought twice about it.
38:55Now the 330-pound Otis
38:58steps into the ring.
39:00And this is interesting, Corey.
39:02A few years back, these two
39:06they collided in NXT,
39:08but these are far different from then.
39:11Well, you talk about the importance
39:12of momentum in this business.
39:14Nobody has as much momentum
39:16as Oba Femi does these days.
39:17The man who slayed the beast
39:20at WrestleMania.
39:22Yeah, but can you imagine
39:23what it would do for Otis
39:24if he could knock off the ruler tonight?
39:26It would change Otis' career.
39:28It would change his life.
39:32Shoulder tackle, Femi
39:33still on his feet
39:35as Otis and Femi go nose-to-nose.
39:38And Femi now
39:39runs right into Otis.
39:51Otis is tackled
39:52and Femi with one to Otis.
39:53Otis with momentum now.
39:55Whoa!
39:56Good goal!
39:58What an uppercut from Femi.
40:00Dropping Otis.
40:02And now Femi.
40:04330 pounds!
40:06He did it!
40:08He just picked up
40:09a 330-pound man
40:11and threw him across the ring!
40:13The ruler is not human!
40:21He's not gonna...
40:25Is he gonna try it?
40:28Oh!
40:30Oh, they've got a plan
40:35of some sort.
40:37Oh, he lifts Otis up now
40:39to the second rope.
40:41I'm not sure Otis
40:42is comfortable up there.
40:43Yeah, Femi
40:44using his head.
40:45Smart move by Femi.
40:46Can he get the 330-pounder up?
40:49He does!
40:51Femi with a fall
40:53from Grace!
40:54You gotta be kidding me!
41:01Here is your winner,
41:02Opa Femi!
41:08Unbelievable!
41:10Opa Femi is becoming
41:16a phenomenon
41:17in this business
41:18thanks to performances
41:20and feet of strength
41:22like this.
41:23That is
41:24330 pounds
41:27that Femi
41:28just nearly
41:29drove
41:30through the center
41:30of the earth.
41:33A colossal
41:34fall from Grace.
41:38Opa Femi
41:40continues
41:41to impress.
41:53Step up
41:54to the ruler
41:55at your own risk.
42:01It's fine.
42:02No, it's fine.
42:04I don't need to get
42:05gone.
42:06It's fine.
42:06I don't need you.
42:08Tez, hey, thanks for
42:09giving me that second
42:10spear out there, pal.
42:11Well, Seth,
42:12thanks to your past
42:12antics with the Vision.
42:14Nobody, nobody
42:15trusts you.
42:16Nobody, nobody
42:17trusts me.
42:18No, you don't trust me.
42:18You don't trust me.
42:19I don't even know you.
42:20You probably don't trust me.
42:21Guess what?
42:21I don't even trust myself.
42:23Who cares, man?
42:24We're in the same fight.
42:26You're fighting the Vision.
42:27I'm fighting the Vision.
42:28Sometimes, those fights,
42:29they're gonna come together.
42:31Here's the deal.
42:34You stay out of my way,
42:36I'll stay out of your way.
42:39Yeah, bet.
42:44Rollins has got problems
42:45with Rod Bray for this man.
42:47The OTC, Roman Reigns,
42:48has problems with his cousin,
42:50Jacob Fatu.
42:51Reigns and general manager,
42:53Adam Pearce, apparently
42:54going over the contract.
42:56And Roman will sign later tonight
42:57for his title defense
42:59Saturday at Backlash
43:00against that man.
43:01He has arrived.
43:03The Samoan werewolf,
43:04Jacob Fatu.
43:05In the ring with Reigns
43:06later tonight.
43:28There's your guy.
43:30Yes, sir.
43:31Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
43:35What kind of reaction is that?
43:38So nice.
43:39You get to see me twice.
43:42Guys, I literally put my celebration suit on
43:45after my giant victory tonight
43:47to come out here for my standing ovation.
43:56Yeah, you can boo me all you want,
43:58but I deserve one
43:59because tonight I pinned
44:01in the middle of the ring
44:02the current intercontinental champion,
44:06Penta.
44:10Oh, you guys don't like that?
44:12Well, this one's going to bug you too
44:14because I'm undefeated on Monday Night Raw, folks.
44:17I've also pinned his pal, Javon Evans.
44:24Guys, Ethan Page is currently undefeated
44:29since debuting,
44:31unlike anyone that's ever done it
44:33on Monday Night Raw before.
44:36Guys, I just showed up.
44:38I've already forced myself
44:39into a title picture.
44:41I've already pinned a current champion.
44:44And soon, I will be holding said championship.
44:52And what's important about that
44:54is that the intercontinental championship
44:56is the token of excellence in the WWE.
45:02That championship is the launching pad
45:05for everyone in this company's history,
45:08straight to the top.
45:09And that's exactly where All Ego is headed.
45:15Now, whether you folks like it or not,
45:18you're going to hear one phrase very soon.
45:22And new intercontinental champion,
45:27All Ego, Ethan Page.
45:35This August.
45:40From the home of the Minnesota Vikings.
45:45To epic nights of WWE SummerSlam.
45:48Welcome, everyone,
45:49to the biggest event of the summer.
46:01SummerSlam, Saturday, August 1st, and Sunday, August 2nd.
46:08Here in Omaha tonight for Monday Night Raw.
46:10You know, Saturday at Backlash,
46:11EO Sky, Asuka will go one-on-one.
46:14Earlier today, general manager Adam Pearce
46:17would sit EO and Asuka down.
46:19They would go face to face.
46:25EO, Asuka.
46:27You've both requested this time
46:29before we get to Backlash.
46:31Ladies, the floor is yours.
46:41Asuka.
46:43Yeah, Asuka-san.
46:58I look up to you.
47:00I loved you.
47:27No, it has.
47:34Now, I have to fight you.
47:41Once again, you continue.
47:45You are disrespect.
47:46Respect.
47:47I know you only have to be here.
47:52Huh?
47:54The person sitting here.
47:56Who are you?
47:58You are...
47:58Who are you?
47:59You are...
48:00I am...
48:01Who are you?
48:04Who are you?
48:08Who are you?
48:13Who are you?
48:18I'm done with Eoskai.
48:22At Backlash, I'm gonna cut you out of my life.
48:27For good.
48:36I am ready for Asuka.
48:59I am ready for Asuka.
49:01What the hell?
49:01Go!
49:05Give me a doctor!
49:08Are you okay?
49:09Give me a doctor!
49:12The relationship between Asuka and Io has passed the point of no return.
49:18This Saturday, in Tampa, Florida, at Backlash, one-on-one, the score shall be settled as Eoskai battles her former
49:28senpai, the Empress of Tomorrow, Asuka.
49:32And this is a situation, Corey, that has been building for years and years and years and finally comes to
49:38a head on Saturday.
49:39Now Io had better be ready for war because Asuka, you know what length she's willing to go.
49:44So listen, I need to know about this ridiculous stuff that's going on down at AAA.
49:50The Creed brothers are now involved in this whole thing with the OG Americano.
49:55There's a lot of nuance involved, it's a very delicate situation.
49:58Okay, so Ty, what happened this past week?
50:00Well, you're referring to what went down this past Saturday night as the contract was signed for the mask versus
50:05mask match on May 30th between the Americanos.
50:08This is after the contingency was put in place that there was to be no physical contact in Mexico, not
50:15to mention the original El Grande.
50:17They had backstage interviewer Andrea Pazarte fired from AAA before he would sign the contract.
50:23Then the Creed would arrive and put the real El Grande Americano through the contract table.
50:32I'm here with the original El Grande Americano and they would be Los Hermanos Americanos.
50:42Right.
50:43Well, after surprising El Grande Americano this past weekend at the AAA mask versus mask contract signing.
50:49How are you guys feeling going into this trios match tonight?
50:53Well, thankfully the no contact rule only applies in Mexico.
50:57That means here in middle America, all bets are off.
51:01Now the boys saw how they treat me down there in AAA, all right?
51:05Triple teaming me week after week, it's ridiculous.
51:07So they decided to do the honorable thing and help me out.
51:11Probably because they take inspiration from a close personal friend of mine, Chad Gable.
51:18Who's still sidelined with an injury, by the way.
51:20But on May 30th, we find out once and for all that there's only one El Grande Americano.
51:26And you're looking at him.
51:27The original El Grande Americano.
51:32Gracias!
51:36I cleared everything up.
51:39See, you just needed to give it a minute.
51:44The reason this is so silly is we know that Bruto and Julio or Brutus and Julius Creed, we saw
51:51that happen on Saturday.
51:53And now all of a sudden they walk out here, they put masks on and they're, I don't get it.
51:57Julio and Bruto are simply trying to follow in the footsteps of the real El Grande Americano.
52:02Donning the mask, we're learning about Mexican culture and hoping that Superstarter will follow.
52:09The following is a trios match.
52:13Introducing first, the team of Julio and Bruto Credo, Los Americanos Hermanos.
52:22An original El Grande Americano.
52:29Okay, correct her.
52:31Credo.
52:31Credo.
52:32Bruto y Julio Credo.
52:35Trios action.
52:36Next.
52:47Okay, so let me get this straight.
52:49We have six posers trying to be luchadors.
52:54None of them are real luchadors.
52:57We got the creeds in the ring.
52:59I've suspected for a year who the other dude is doing this thing.
53:03One's part of American made, remember.
53:05That thing, by the way, is a tribute.
53:07It's an homage to the legendary Grand Naniwa of Japan.
53:11Oh.
53:11The crab walk.
53:12That's what that's about.
53:13See, he's a multicultural phenomenon, the original El Grande Americano.
53:17The point I was trying to make is we saw a certain athlete in WWE do that as well.
53:22That's very popular.
53:23A lot of people like Grand Naniwa.
53:24The guy who's supposedly out with an injury for the last year.
53:27Chad Gable.
53:28Supposedly?
53:29They're HIPAA laws for a reason.
53:30Okay.
53:31You could speculate.
53:32When we get to the mass versus match.
53:33Yes.
53:34Match later in the month.
53:35Yes.
53:36May 30th.
53:36Saturday night.
53:37Finally find out who the imposter is.
53:39Night before clash in Italy.
53:40Yes.
53:41We will finally have the answer as to who the one and only El Grande Americano shall be.
53:46It's going down in Monterey, Mexico.
53:49Noche de los Grandes.
53:51One on one.
53:53The real El Grande Americano on the left of your screen.
53:56The original El Grande Americano on the right.
54:00The stakes could not be higher in AAA, in Mexican culture.
54:03Lucha de puestas.
54:05You lose your mask.
54:06It is the ultimate disrespect.
54:07You better get a private jet if you're gonna get from Monterey to Italy for clash in Italy.
54:11And we'll leave that to the higher ups to figure out.
54:24The end of the right.
54:25And to the opponent, the team of Rio de Braco.
54:31Los Americanos.
54:33El Grande Americano.
54:37The ridiculousness continues.
54:40Michael Cole, I challenge you to take a trip south of the border
54:45and experience the mania surrounding the real El Grande Americano.
54:50Well, he's a hero there, but he's booed in the states.
54:53Well, that's because the states are a little bit behind things.
54:55We tend to be a little ham-fisted in our assessment of situations.
55:00That coming from the voice of AAA.
55:02Listen, I gotta keep honest here.
55:05Rio, Bravo, and the Real are like the Beatles south of the border.
55:10Really?
55:11I don't know if the Beatles were big in Mexico at the time, but I assume Beatlemania crossed borders.
55:181965 wants your group back, but...
55:20I mean, you even outdated me there.
55:24All right, we got a trios match coming.
55:27A lot to talk about, folks.
55:29Decades of history.
55:33Hey, WWE visited Minnesota this week for a kickoff of the biggest party this summer, SummerSlam.
55:38The United States champion Tiffany Stratton presenting the title of the Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell.
55:43There was a big event at the Mall of America.
55:45Otis was there.
55:46Maxine was there as well.
55:48She threw out the first pitch at the Minnesota Twins game.
55:51She was also at the NBA's Timberwolves playoff game.
55:54A reminder, combo tickets on sale now for SummerSlam August 1st and 2nd.
55:59Shout out to my main man, Derek Shelton.
56:01Manager of the Minnesota Twins.
56:03So, uh, this is a trios match.
56:05That means three on three.
56:07It is the original El Grande Americano and the three brothers against, um, El Grande Americano and Los Americanos.
56:16That would be Guido Bravo.
56:19Right?
56:20I'm just really enjoying watching you trying to solve the mystery that is unfolding before our very eyes.
56:25Let's talk about what you're seeing at the bottom of your screen.
56:27Saturday night, May 30th, Monterrey, Mexico.
56:30Mask versus Mask.
56:32Here we go.
56:33Waste a little time getting underway.
56:35And I've called them six imposters.
56:37Uh, pretending to be luchadors.
56:40Uh, going at it here tonight.
56:41One of those imposters will be unmasked in a couple of weeks.
56:45There can only be one El Grande Americano.
56:48Look at this.
56:49Bravo sent unceremoniously to the outside.
56:52The OG Americano sending the real to the outside.
56:55There is chaos mid-ring being inflicted by the original El Grande Americano.
57:00Los Americanos hermanos.
57:03Yeah.
57:03Julio and Bruto.
57:05Julio Credo.
