16:36And his opponent for the World Heavyweight Championship at Backlash,
16:42Jacob Fartou!
16:47K-R-U-K-F-A-T-O!
17:17Corey, for the past couple of weeks, this man, Jacob Fartou, has had the element of surprise.
17:23He surprised Roman Reigns with the challenge a couple of weeks ago that he won the World Heavyweight Championship.
17:29He surprised Roman Reigns with the attack last week and the Tongan death grip.
17:35The problem for Fartou now is he has no more surprises.
17:38He is looking in the eyes of a focused Roman Reigns who is very wary of what this man is
17:45capable of.
17:45We saw how Roman Reigns arrived to the arena tonight to kick off Monday Night Raw.
17:51The tribal chief is irate.
17:54Trust me, Jacob Fartou knows exactly what he's doing.
17:58The Samoan Werewolf is playing mind games with the OTC.
18:03When's the last time you saw Roman Reigns lose his cool like he did earlier tonight?
18:07Jacob Fartou's playing with house money, right?
18:09He has nothing to lose.
18:19Gentlemen, you know how this works?
18:21Two signatures make the match official.
18:33No, Pierce.
18:33No, Pierce, you know how this works.
18:52Omaha, Nebraska
19:02Acknowledge me
19:24You hear that, Jacob?
19:28That's not just love.
19:31That's the sound of respect.
19:39You don't think I know where you come from, little cousin?
19:42You don't think I was watching from afar?
19:45That respect wasn't earned from just hanging out here.
19:48Now, you was grinding for, what, 12 years?
19:50Well, I've been here for over 12 years.
20:01I was the one in this company
20:03that had my foot holding the door open for Solo.
20:08Solo was the one that brought you in, huh?
20:10Well, guess what?
20:11I brought Solo in, therefore I brought you in.
20:15And I will be damned
20:17if there is not respect to be had in this business for me.
20:30OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC!
20:39OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC!
20:46We can't just run around here
20:47and bogart everybody and run roughshod.
20:49No, there's got to be a system of conduct
20:53that we can hang our hat on.
20:55You understand?
21:00The Tongan Death Grip.
21:03OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC! OEC!
21:06You disrespect me
21:07with something
21:10that you
21:11saved for desperate measures?
21:13I mean, what do you think this is?
21:14We're in the bar at 3 a.m., and you're surrounded 8 to 1.
21:19That's when you pull out the tongue and breath.
21:21That's when you snap somebody's throat.
21:23You don't do that to family.
21:25You don't do that to your own.
21:27You don't do that to your tribal chief.
21:33Man, hold on.
21:34Where?
21:37Tribal chief?
21:39Hey, that's when you got it all wrong, and you don't understand.
21:45Yes, I am desperate.
21:49Yes, it feels like it's just me against the world.
21:54Yes, my back is against the wall.
21:57So I have no other choice but to take you out,
22:02take this title, and everything that comes with it.
22:13And to keep it 100,
22:17then I'm going to put a choke hold on this game,
22:22and I'm going to squeeze out every dollar and every cent
22:27just the way this company's been doing our family for decades.
22:34So when I'm talking about all gas, no brakes with it,
22:39it doesn't mean slowing down.
22:42It means moving forward and never going back to where I came from.
22:51So, yes, Roman, I am desperate.
22:56I'm desperate enough to do anything for my household,
23:01even if I got to run through my own blood.
23:05This is what I'm talking about here.
23:07Household.
23:08Man, let me just, let me, let's just get this out the way.
23:19You over here talking about your household.
23:22I just told you I've been up here over a decade grinding
23:25from multiple households.
23:28You worried about seven kids?
23:31I'm worried about 170 kids that fulfill our family.
23:35You worried about higher education?
23:38I'm worried about generation after generation of higher education.
23:43Because I'm the one that can do that.
23:46I got the proof of concept.
23:48I got the respect.
23:50This company, they want to do business with me.
23:53I already told you.
23:54I told Brock a long time ago.
23:56This is all mine.
23:59This is my ring.
24:01And, yes, in our family, we're equals.
24:05We're of the same blood.
24:09But in this ring, Jacob, you're beneath me.
24:16Boom, Fatou lost it.
24:18Fatou ran after Raze with a tongue and death grip.
24:21Roman trying to counter it, does.
24:23Jacob wasn't able to have it, cinched in perfectly.
24:26And I talked to you about no surprises tonight from Fatou.
24:34Roman title in hand.
24:35It's Jacob Fatou, though, with a target death grip in again.
24:40Roman trying to fight out of it.
24:43And this is going to be a war on Saturday.
24:45An absolute bloody civil war.
24:49Reigns now moving his prediction to be accurate.
24:54Standing over.
24:55Oh, no, no, no.
24:57I think he's got it locked in this time.
24:59Nope.
24:59Reigns again creates separation.
25:02Right for the Superman punch.
25:03Intercepted by Fatou.
25:05Jacob has it in.
25:06Good job, Piers.
25:07Get in there.
25:08Yeah, Piers trying to separate these two.
25:09Not able to.
25:11Fatou's got it locked in.
25:12The driver's team is fading.
25:15Reigns gasping for air.
25:16And now Fatou just put Reigns through the table.
25:24Out of control.
25:27Unhinged.
25:29A desperate man is a dangerous man.
25:33Let's do this.
25:35Fatou!
25:36Let's do this.
25:38Let's do this.
25:40Fatou!
25:41Fatou!
25:42Fatou!
25:42Fatou!
25:43Jacob Fatou is desperate.
25:46Jacob Fatou is hungry.
25:52He needs this for himself.
25:54He needs this for his family.
25:57Jacob Fatou is a dangerous obstacle for his cousin, Roman Reigns, come Saturday at Backlash.
26:07I keep trying!
26:10No!
26:12No!
26:12No!
26:12No!
26:13No!
26:13No!
26:16No!
26:16No!
26:16No!
