00:07Then, now, forever, together.
00:33Okay, did I go to Drew McIntyre's home?
00:36Did a member of law enforcement get thrown into the water?
00:40Did things get physical?
00:41Yes.
00:54That little yard brawl was one-tenth of what should happen
00:59right here, right now, with me and Drew McIntyre in this very ring.
01:06Cody, I don't think you appreciate the situation you've got yourself into.
01:12And to make things worse, I had to make a bad deal.
01:15If I come back, I get my WWE Championship match with Cody Woods.
01:19But I want to pick the stipulation.
01:22I can live with that.
01:22Okay.
01:23Pleasure doing business with you, buddy.
01:26Yes, you're the champ, but you're not above the law.
01:30When Drew comes back, if he pays the fine and makes that public apology to Dan Engler,
01:38Cody, you can't lay a finger on Drew McIntyre.
01:43McIntyre.
01:44Or what?
01:47Or I have to strip you of the WWE Championship.
01:54Merry Christmas, asshole.
01:57You're out of control.
01:59You're not good for that championship.
02:01You're not fit for the job, but I am.
02:04I feel like you've forgotten who you're talking to.
02:08And here you are saying that I'm not above the law as long as I have this title.
02:13I am the law.
02:18Mr. Aldis, my friend, your demand, his demand.
02:23Remember one thing while I am holding this.
02:26I don't work for you.
02:28I work for them.
02:32And you, my friend, you work for me.
02:47The heated rivalry between Drew McIntyre and Cody Rhodes is truly the gift that keeps on giving.
02:53And this week in WWE was certainly no exception.
02:56Welcome on in, everyone, to a fun and fresh new episode.
02:59I'm Megan Morant.
03:00And if there's one thing about Drew McIntyre, it's that he can get under a person's skin.
03:05Specifically, the undisputed WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes.
03:09With Drew having already begun to fulfill his terms by signing the contract,
03:14Nick Aldis was quick to remind Cody that he couldn't lay his hands on McIntyre
03:19once Drew apologized to WWE official Dan Angler and paid his fine.
03:24Not unless Cody wanted to be stripped of his championship.
03:27The American nightmare grew more and more agitated as the night continued.
03:32But finally, the Scottish warrior held up his end of the bargain, handing the SmackDown general manager a check
03:38and apologizing to Dan Angler.
03:40And while the apology seems sincere at first, well, you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
03:47I also apologize that it was obviously your dream to be a wrestler right here in this ring,
03:54doing what I do, former world champion.
03:56But you weren't good enough, so you had to be a referee.
04:01Let me come down to your level.
04:05I apologize that your lovely wife, Melissa, had to watch me claymore you in the face.
04:13And she had to think to herself, I wish I had a husband like Drew
04:17that stood up for his convictions no matter the consequences.
04:21I get why you did it, you had to save yourself, you had to screw me to save yourself, protect
04:26Cody.
04:28But I feel sorry and I apologize for your children.
04:35That they have such a coward, corporate, stooge for a father.
04:41Oh, I'm not finished there.
04:43I could go on all day.
04:44You want to do something?
04:45You want to be a man?
04:46Do you want to hit me?
04:47Do you want to get revenge on me right now?
04:50Go for it, Dan.
04:53Get.
04:59I know why you're so upset.
05:02It's because they attacked you on your tour bus, your home away from home,
05:07where your family sleeps.
05:10But your family weren't there when I attacked you, were they?
05:14But I wish they were there.
05:18I wish your children could see a real man put the boots to you.
05:25I wish your wife, Brandi, could see what a real daddy looks like.
05:33Come on, come on, come on, I know you want to do it.
05:36Do it, strike.
05:42You want to know the stipulation?
05:46You want to know?
05:47Help me!
05:47We're not doing this match in America.
05:49You've screwed me three times here.
05:51We're taking this to Berlin, Germany.
05:56Trying to make my life hell.
05:58I'm obviously in your head making it hell.
06:00How about this?
06:03Drew McIntyre against Cody Rhodes for the WWE Championship.
06:09Three stages of hell.
06:16Absolutely, you're done.
06:17You agree?
06:18Yes, I agree.
06:20We're agreed.
06:22There's one more thing.
06:31When I torture you in Berlin,
06:35when I send you straight to hell.
06:43Say hi to your dad for me.
06:46Say hi to your dad for me.
06:51Claymore!
07:05McIntyre knows exactly what he's doing.
07:09Cody Rhodes is handcuffed.
07:12He can't touch Drew McIntyre for another two weeks.
07:34Oh, Lash thinking about ending this one.
07:36Could be looking for the Lash extension.
07:39Charlotte able to muscle her way up and over.
07:41Oh, and it turns into a DDT.
07:42Great counter by Charlotte.
07:46Looking for a cover.
07:49Charlotte Flair, I think, is all out of sorts.
07:51This has been a beatdown, courtesy of Lash Legend.
07:55Charlotte needs to compose herself.
07:57A little disrespect from the Queen.
08:00Megan to climb to the top.
08:04Charlotte, top rope.
08:08Moonsault by Flair.
08:09Here's the cover.
08:11Oh, and Legend just able to kick out.
08:14And, you know, honestly, Cole,
08:15I think Charlotte has to blame herself.
08:17Let's take another look at this.
08:19A picture-perfect moonsault from Flair.
08:21We've seen her do it a million times.
08:23But Charlotte got a little cute on the cover.
08:26She used an unorthodox hook of the leg,
08:28and that may have cost the Queen the win.
08:32And now attacking the base of Lash Legend.
08:37A smart strategy.
08:38I'm a little surprised that Charlotte didn't employ it earlier.
08:42But Flair kicked into the turnbuckle after she took her eye off the ball.
08:47Look out, Nia.
08:48Nia Jax now.
08:49Alexa plays from behind.
08:50Going to make Nia Jax pay.
08:53And Lash Legend.
08:56Looking on.
08:57And Charlotte Flair.
08:58Up and over.
08:59Going to make Lash pay.
09:01Shoulders down again.
09:02Charlotte with the win.
09:06Here is your winner, Charlotte Flair!
09:19Not going to lie, after last week, it was nice to see Lash lose.
09:23Well, as long as we do that to every team every week
09:25and bring the tag team titles back.
09:32Are you guys talking about the tag team titles?
09:35No.
09:38Because you seem very confident.
09:41And I feel like I need to remind you that,
09:44you and I, we have a tag team championship match coming up.
09:48You do?
09:49Yeah.
09:49And once we ring, they're going to stay with us.
09:53Okay, I don't think so.
09:54Why don't you count us out?
09:56The kind of bull crap you pulled out there.
09:58What happened to you?
09:59I don't think so.
10:05Stop!
10:09Hey, come on.
10:10Enough!
10:11Everybody stop!
10:12Enough!
10:15All adults here.
10:16All right.
10:17This chaos has gone far enough.
10:18So here's what we're going to do.
10:20Next week on SmackDown in Buffalo, New York,
10:23you're going to be in an eight-woman tag team match.
10:25So you can all face off before your big tag title match on Raw in Brooklyn.
10:30Maybe that way, you can get this intense dislike for each other out of your system.
10:35It's a little bit more than intense.
10:36I can fly.
10:37I can fly.
10:42After months of betrayals, insults, and bloodthirst across the women's tag team division,
10:48an opportunity for all hell to break loose comes on Friday Night SmackDown.
10:53Rio, Alexa Bliss, and Charlotte Flair face off against Nia Jax, slash legend,
10:58and the current tag team champions, the Kabuki Warriors, in an eight-woman tag team match,
11:03certain to turn the ring into a war zone.
11:08Even in the midst of all the chaos, you can always count on Asuka to find time to gloat.
11:13After defeating Rhea Ripley two weeks ago, Asuka wanted to make it clear that Mommy was
11:18no match for her, and if you thought she stood a chance, well, then you are just a stupid baby.
11:24Asuka's words, not mine.
11:26The Empress of Tomorrow went on to say that the outcome of the women's tag team championship match
11:30Monday on Raw will have the same outcome as their one-on-one match,
11:34but Rhea and Io just couldn't bear another word.
11:42They are the number one contenders for tag gold,
11:46but it looks like, ahead of next week's showdown,
11:50we might get a little taste of what's to come.
11:53We've gotten a big taste of poison mist and insane elbows
11:57as the finally early part of the championship reign of the Kabuki Warriors.
12:01Well, Io stands out. Here we go!
12:03We're a week away from meeting up in Brooklyn,
12:08and Io and Rhea take the ring.
12:10Io moving a lot better than she was last week,
12:13and that spins the ball for the Kabuki Warriors.
12:17What a throwdown. We're getting it ringside here.
12:20The Kabuki Warriors came down to talk trash,
12:24but now they are eating shots left, right, and center.
12:28Oh!
12:29Oh, Io's back.
12:30Right to the edge of our reinforced announce desk.
12:33Oh, watch your back, Jairi.
12:34Oh, big right hand from Mommy.
12:37Right on the jaw.
12:38And she checks on her part.
12:40Oh!
12:41Asuka.
12:43Right to work.
12:44This is a chance for the Kabuki Warriors to run through some damage now,
12:48especially to Io.
12:49Ahead of that showdown in seven days' time for the gold.
12:53Make your jump that much easier.
12:55Oh, now it's just a beatdown of two-on-one
12:58as they throw Rhea back into the ring.
13:01The Kabuki Warriors just pummeling,
13:04pummeling Rhea Ripley.
13:06And it tells you what a mistake by next week's challenges
13:09to head out here and try and attack the Kabuki Warriors.
13:13Stay wrapped up in cotton wool.
13:15Oh, no.
13:16Until you're up at your...
13:17Oh, oh.
13:17Oh!
13:18Io's back!
13:19Forget the insane elbow!
13:21Here's Io Sky!
13:23Io moving like a bolt of lightning,
13:26and this one has turned around in a hurry.
13:28The Kabuki Warriors getting smashed in that ring.
13:31She's got Riptide lined up!
13:34All out the back doors,
13:35Kairi Sane,
13:36but a big elbow from Ripley.
13:40Kabuki Warriors,
13:42the reigning tag champs,
13:43looking completely ragged
13:45after that assault by Rhea Ripley and Io Sky.
13:56From Brooklyn,
13:57the Women's Tag Team Championship match,
14:01the Kabuki Warriors
14:02against Ripley and Io Sky.
14:08The stage is set for this battle,
14:11fueled by resentment and pride,
14:13with the Kabuki Warriors striving to prove
14:15that they are two competitors
14:17who are simply untouchable in the ring
14:19by putting an end to Rhea and Io
14:21just as soon as their new tag team
14:24is getting started.
14:25But there is no chance
14:27Asuka and Kairi's supremacy
14:28will go uncontested,
14:30because when it comes to the tag team titles,
14:33Rhea is not backing down.
14:41And Hayes now out to the apron,
14:43looking for a DDT,
14:44but Dragunov caught him.
14:46To still possess this type of power,
14:48this deep into a matchup,
14:50speaks volumes about the physical condition
14:52of Ilya Dragunov.
14:54What's Dragunov gonna do here?
14:55Hayes in desperation,
14:57delivering elbows to the jaw.
15:05Both men cruised, battered,
15:08but too proud to quit.
15:09Beating the hell out of each other.
15:12Dragunov now.
15:14No!
15:14Out of the apron!
15:17Hayes may be out!
15:23I'm not sure Carmelo Hayes
15:25has any idea where he is.
15:26Dragunov does, though.
15:28He's got Hayes in his sights.
15:30Dragunov from the top rope.
15:34First 48!
15:36First 48!
15:38Melo's got a chance!
15:40Melo's got a chance!
15:41He's gonna do it!
15:43Carmelo Hayes,
15:45nothing but net!
15:46The cover!
15:48Case closed!
15:51Case closed!
15:52Hayes is a champion!
15:54Here is your winner!
15:55And the new
15:59United States champion,
16:06Carmelo Hayes!
16:08Never quit and handle problems
16:10and I crush them all.
16:11My shoulders use the whole weight
16:13and now I dust them all.
16:15All these muscles
16:15and they tough until I come along.
16:18I've been in this here for years
16:19and I'm running strong.
16:20What a fighting champion
16:22Ilya Dragunov was!
16:24And what a tremendous show
16:26of sportsmanship!
16:33After Ilya Dragunov
16:35let the pain entertain us
16:37for seven intense
16:38United States Championship defenses,
16:40Carmelo Hayes was the one
16:42to turn that pain into triumph.
16:43In a match with both competitors
16:45leaving everything in the ring,
16:47Hayes coming out on top
16:48shows beyond a shadow of a doubt
16:50why he is him.
16:52But Carmelo isn't the only one
16:54leaving the WWE universe stunned
16:56as the women's
16:57intercontinental champion
16:58Maxine Dupree's feud
16:59has brought out
17:00a whole new vicious side
17:01of the champ
17:02and a whole new
17:03holier-than-thou side
17:05of the challenger.
17:08Becky, choose your next move wisely
17:10because if I get a hold of that
17:13you've got two choices.
17:15A, and my personal favorite,
17:17I'll break it.
17:20Or B,
17:21B is still a good option,
17:24you submit again.
17:30Who's a moody Maxie?
17:32This is what I'm talking about.
17:33You're very, very moody.
17:35I,
17:36I didn't come out here to fight.
17:38I never start a fight
17:40although I do finish them.
17:45I, I,
17:46I came to give you
17:52credit.
17:57Okay,
17:58when,
17:58when I first saw you
18:00I thought you were awful,
18:01terrible,
18:02the worst thing
18:02that I've ever seen.
18:03Do you have a point?
18:05Yes.
18:07Over the last few weeks
18:09or months
18:10you've,
18:11you've,
18:17you've,
18:17you've,
18:18you've gotten
18:19a tiny bit better
18:20and you were able
18:21to get away
18:21with stealing a title
18:23and that's not nothing.
18:24Becky,
18:25the only thing
18:26I stole from you
18:27is the spotlight.
18:29I earned
18:30this title
18:31and if you can't realize
18:33that I will make you
18:34realize it next week
18:35and you're not gonna
18:35come out here
18:36and blame the ref
18:37and claim corruption.
18:39No, no, no.
18:40It'll be all me
18:41but I won't be
18:42the only one saying it.
18:44Everybody will be saying it.
18:46Hey,
18:46Sports Illustrated
18:47might even say it
18:49and Becky Lynch,
18:50you will say it.
18:52Maxine Dupree
18:54Intercontinental Champion.
19:00Listen to me,
19:01you little pup.
19:02I came out here
19:03to be nice,
19:03okay,
19:04because I'm a very nice person.
19:06Okay?
19:07All right.
19:08But you think,
19:09you think four weeks
19:10of training
19:11in a dungeon
19:12is gonna make up
19:13for the lifetime
19:13that I've given
19:14to this business.
19:15I am a Royal Rumble winner.
19:18I am a Grand Slam champion.
19:20I won the main event
19:22of WrestleMania.
19:22I am the greatest
19:23female wrestler
19:24of all time
19:25and it's not just me saying it.
19:27Sports Illustrated
19:28says it,
19:28everybody says it.
19:29The Bleacher Report
19:30says it,
19:32okay?
19:33And I didn't just
19:35get there
19:36because everything
19:36went my way.
19:37No,
19:38I climbed every mountain.
19:40I overcame
19:40every corruption
19:42and injustice
19:43perpetrated against me.
19:45Okay?
19:46And it is not over.
19:48It is never over
19:49until I win
19:51and I always
19:52find a way
19:53to win.
19:56But you,
19:57you, you,
19:58you think you stole
19:59the spotlight.
20:00Well,
20:00in one week,
20:01in one week,
20:02Maxine,
20:03all eyes are gonna be
20:04on you
20:05and you gotta ask yourself,
20:07are you everything
20:09they think you are?
20:14Or are you gonna be
20:16everything
20:16that I know
20:18you are?
20:19Welcome
20:20to the big time.
20:27The fuse is lit
20:28for an explosive rematch
20:29between Becky Lynch
20:30and Maxine Dupree
20:31with the Women's
20:32Intercontinental Championship
20:33on the line
20:34Monday on Raw.
20:35A Becky Lynch
20:37with an unbreakable
20:38determination
20:38to put the rookie
20:39in her place
20:40is a dangerous
20:41Becky Lynch.
20:42But with such
20:43a massive opportunity
20:44for Maxine
20:45to take down
20:46a seasoned veteran,
20:47will the burden
20:47of expectation
20:48become too much
20:49for Dupree
20:50or will she beat
20:51the odds?
20:57On the final
20:58Monday Night Raw
20:59of 2025,
21:00Stephanie Vaquer
21:01defended her
21:02women's world title
21:03against Raquel Rodriguez
21:04and WWE Hall of Famer
21:06Nikki Bella.
21:07All three of these
21:08superstars have a bone
21:09to pick with one another
21:10and it all goes back
21:12to Survivor Series.
21:13Nikki Bella
21:14was inconsolable
21:15after her loss
21:16in San Diego
21:16to Stephanie
21:17and refused
21:18to go to the
21:19back of the line.
21:20Instead,
21:20Bella decided
21:21to interfere
21:22in Stephanie's
21:23championship match
21:24against Raquel Rodriguez
21:25a few weeks later
21:26to remind Stephanie
21:27that Nikki
21:28wasn't going anywhere.
21:30And while it seemed
21:30that Bella
21:31successfully turned
21:32Stephanie's attention
21:33back to the
21:34Hall of Famer,
21:35Raquel Rodriguez
21:36wasn't going
21:36to go away quietly.
21:38So the champ
21:39took matters
21:40into her own hands,
21:41demanding both
21:42at the same time
21:43in a triple threat match
21:44for the women's
21:45world championship.
21:47Stephanie Vaquer
21:48trying to rally here
21:49and create some momentum
21:50with offense.
21:56Oh, Raquel denying it.
21:57Well, Raquel just
21:58a momentum stopper
22:00in her own right.
22:02Oh, oh, oh.
22:03How about it?
22:04Right here.
22:05To attack.
22:05No, Raquel Rodriguez
22:07able to get that shoulder
22:08up at two and change.
22:09Raquel trying her best
22:10to deadlift,
22:12power up the care
22:13into a vertical suplex,
22:15but fell victim
22:17to that trap
22:17of a small package.
22:19And this one is
22:20anybody's guess
22:21at this point, Joe.
22:25All three women
22:26have massive opportunities
22:27to put this to bed.
22:29All three women
22:30bringing their A game.
22:33But Willis
22:34putting her in the
22:34target zone here.
22:35She's lining her up.
22:37That's what
22:38Vader this time
22:38doesn't go her way.
22:40Meanwhile, Nikki Bella
22:41is right back
22:41in the mix of it.
22:42Nikki Bella pin
22:43in combination
22:44to try to take gold.
22:46She's had a little
22:48difficulty manipulating
22:49the frame of Raquel
22:51there for that pin
22:52and it proved pivotal.
22:54Just in the nick of time,
22:56Raquel kicking out there.
22:59Was that the final chance
23:00for Nikki Bella
23:01to win this thing?
23:02No compromise.
23:03Position right here
23:05for Viqueir.
23:06Oh, are you kidding me?
23:09Raquel Rodriguez.
23:11How about a two for one?
23:14Time to that double
23:15to Hanabom.
23:16We only get a single.
23:17Oh, watch out, Raquel.
23:18Oh, she went
23:19for the roll-up
23:19and instead
23:20out of the ring.
23:21Meanwhile, back in the ring.
23:22That is how Viqueir retains.
23:25Here is the winner
23:29and still
23:31the women's
23:31world champion
23:35Stephanie
23:37Viqueir.
23:50What the hell
23:51are you doing?
23:54I wanted you to know
23:56why I was wearing
23:57the mask.
24:00I wanted everybody
24:01to fill my actions
24:03before they saw
24:04my face
24:05and I've made
24:06some bad decisions.
24:07I got comfortable.
24:09I got injured.
24:11But then I saw
24:12the vision.
24:14You didn't wait
24:14for anything.
24:16You took
24:17and that's me now.
24:19I take
24:20and I know
24:21the vision's got a match
24:22tonight
24:22and I'd love to take
24:23that opportunity
24:24and help out.
24:25very interesting.
24:29Austin Theory
24:30now wants
24:31another chance
24:32to prove himself
24:33worthy of the vision.
24:38Austin Theory
24:39might be a missing piece
24:40in the vision.
24:49A stomp
24:51by Theory
24:52a cover
24:53on Rey
24:54and a win
24:55by the vision.
24:58I'd say
24:59Austin Theory
24:59nailed his audition.
25:13The rumors
25:16are true
25:17ladies and gentlemen
25:18the newest member
25:21of the vision
25:29is Austin
25:31is Austin
25:40Earn your keep
25:42young man
25:43they're all yours.
25:55I have waited
25:57my entire life
25:59for this moment.
26:05I have worked
26:07my entire career
26:09for this
26:10moment.
26:12I have worked
26:18a wise man
26:20can you
26:21educate me
26:23on this part again?
26:24Yes sir.
26:25The goals
26:26of the vision
26:28outweigh
26:29the individual
26:30needs
26:30of any
26:31exclusive
26:32athlete
26:33inside
26:34of the group.
26:36K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O
26:41-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O-K-O
26:45-K-O-K-O!
26:49Well, your first mistake is assuming that you know what I think of you.
26:53You think I was going to come out here and tell you that you're not ready?
26:57When your entire life you've been told you're ready and you're prepared?
27:02Brother, you're more ready than anybody I've ever seen.
27:05You're more ready than anybody back there.
27:07You're more ready than anybody else in the vision.
27:11There's one problem, Braun.
27:13Braun, I'm not ready.
27:17You want what I got?
27:22Pick it up.
27:27It's a lot heavier than you think, and I'm not just talking about the physical weight.
27:31It is a privilege to carry this strap, and it's something that I've earned,
27:37and I'm not ready to let it go.
27:42I'm not ready to stop coming into sold-out arenas nationwide
27:48and getting the privilege to say,
27:52is it good to be alive on a Monday night in Orlando, Florida?
28:06I'm not ready to stop being champion.
28:09You're big, you're bad, you're strong, you're tough, you're fast.
28:15You got what it takes.
28:17But you're right, we're not the same.
28:19Because one of us is CM Punk.
28:27Someday I'm not going to wake up, but that wasn't today.
28:30Someday I'm going to run out of row, but it's not January 5th.
28:34And someday, somebody is going to beat me for this.
28:38But it ain't going to be you.
28:43I'll see you January 5th.
28:49The whole world will see that dance.
28:51One of us is CM Punk, yet that one just put the other on blast.
28:57In one corner, the mad dog, Braun Breaker,
29:00is biting at the chance to earn the world heavyweight title.
29:03And in the other, the best in the world, CM Punk,
29:06is not ready to relinquish his championship to anyone.
29:10Tensions are at an all-time high
29:11before the bell rings on this explosive rivalry.
29:18The Vision has been quite busy
29:20after the reveal of Austin Theory as the masked man.
29:23Whether it's the tag team match two weeks ago
29:25or last Monday when Paul Heyman announced
29:27that Austin Theory is the newest member of The Vision,
29:30it seems that with each passing week,
29:32The Vision is on to the next big thing.
29:35However, the same can't be said
29:37for WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio,
29:40who is still very mad about Austin Theory
29:43interfering in his match against Logan Paul.
29:45Not once, but twice.
29:47So, Rey was out to teach Theory a lesson
29:50the best way he knows how.
29:51But with Logan Paul ringside,
29:53it wasn't long before Mysterio
29:54was going to need some backup of his own.
29:57I'm just tying Theory up a notch here.
30:05Oh, could this be?
30:06The 619 opportunity is delivered on!
30:09Oh, God, this is...
30:10He's got him!
30:11Oh, Logan Paul!
30:13Oh, Logan Paul!
30:16And the bell rings as Logan Paul
30:21interferes with the match
30:22just when Mysterio had it in place.
30:26It was never about the match, Joe Test.
30:28This was a bonding session.
30:29Oh, look at this. Come on, now.
30:30As Paul Heyman put it,
30:31a chance to grow those bonds
30:34with the newest member of The Vision.
30:36This is why Punk said...
30:37Oh, no!
30:38Oh!
30:42He's back!
30:48Well, this is exactly why Rey Mysterio
30:51said, I got some connections.
30:53Don't worry, Punk.
30:54Penta, who we haven't seen
30:56since he got injured
30:57in the last time
30:58is now tournament.
31:00He had to stick up
31:01for his go to Buddy
31:02just in the nick of time.
31:04Oh, all the reports
31:05of the shoulder injury.
31:07Oh, did you see that?
31:08Oh, I did.
31:09Logan Paul!
31:11How about a 6-1-9 for you?
31:14And look out!
31:16Penta clears him.
31:18Oh, it is so good
31:20to have Penta back here
31:21on Raw.
31:25Go!
31:36Well, a huge shock
31:39to The Vision.
31:40A message attempted
31:41to be sent
31:43to Rey Mysterio
31:44in physical fashion,
31:46but for Rey's sake,
31:47thank goodness
31:48for the return
31:49of the incredible Penta.
31:57Do you have
31:58any sort of response
32:00to the widespread belief
32:01that your commentary
32:03and general behavior
32:04has been classified
32:07as disrespectful
32:08since defeating
32:09John Cena?
32:10Defeating?
32:11That's not very precise.
32:13I made John Cena
32:15tap out.
32:16Arthur!
32:20The disrespect
32:21got to stop.
32:23You made John Cena
32:24tap out.
32:2617-time World Champion,
32:28Grand Slam Champion,
32:30the GOAT,
32:31my hero,
32:32and a hero
32:33to a lot of other people.
32:34But every week
32:36you sing the same old song,
32:38it makes you a piece of...
32:47You're not a good person.
32:49You're the world's
32:50greatest wrestler now.
32:53Second time
32:53you done done that,
32:54you won't be a third.
33:08That's supposed
33:09to be a challenge?
33:12See you in the ring.
33:15I told you,
33:16I told you,
33:18I told you.
33:20Sports Entertainment World
33:21that still aches
33:23over what happened
33:24in John Cena's
33:24final match.
33:29Nobody hurts more
33:31than R-Truth
33:32and now hurt literally
33:33in the center of the ring
33:34against Gunther
33:36and sends him down
33:37with a thudding blow
33:38again.
33:40Gunther does what he wants,
33:41he walks where he wants,
33:43including on our desk,
33:45and he beats
33:46whoever he wants.
33:48Gunther owns
33:49this entire industry.
33:53Oh, come on.
33:54No, come on, Wade.
33:57It's so unnecessary, Barrett.
34:01Oh, let's go.
34:02Shoulder tackle,
34:03R-Truth.
34:04And another.
34:05That might have been
34:06a major,
34:07major error by...
34:10Bounce back ability
34:12from the massive Austrian.
34:21And the vicious power bomb
34:23puts him down.
34:25Shoulders down.
34:26No, we're not done yet.
34:27Come on.
34:28We're not done yet.
34:29This is a message
34:31to anybody in the locker room
34:33who wants to step
34:34to Gunther.
34:35Hammering elbows.
34:36You just have the sense,
34:37yes, and that's where
34:38it's going.
34:39When the shoulders were down
34:40and it could have been over,
34:41he's applying the sleeper.
34:43It's a barbarity,
34:45and is it time
34:46to tap out like a bee?
34:54Here is your winner
34:56by submission,
34:58the ring general,
35:01the ring general,
35:02Gunther.
35:06Gunther.
35:06Gunther absolutely pummeling
35:09R-Truth,
35:10once again,
35:10asserting his dominance
35:11in a way that absolutely
35:13infuriates the crowd.
35:14While the ring general
35:15revels in being a Grinch
35:18over the blue brand,
35:19it's Joe Hendry
35:20who is still trying
35:21to bring us all
35:22a little holiday cheer.
35:23But Hendry's new rendition
35:25of an old favorite
35:26wasn't enough
35:26to make everyone believe.
35:30Jingle bells,
35:31jingle bells,
35:33Miz has tiny balls.
35:35He'd rather be in Hollywood,
35:38but they won't return his calls.
35:41Oh, jingle bells,
35:44jingle bells,
35:45Miz has tiny balls.
35:48Do you know what this means?
35:50When my hand goes up,
35:53your mouth goes shut.
35:55You think some cheap jingle
35:58is going to turn me
35:59into the joke?
35:59I've spent 20 years
36:01outlasting people
36:02that laughed at me
36:03harder than you sing.
36:05I've earned the right
36:07to be the locker room leader
36:09and take this company
36:11to the future.
36:12The jokes stop now.
36:16Clear this ring,
36:17clear this stuff.
36:18Me and you have a match
36:20right here,
36:21right now.
36:23Oh, whoa, Miz, Miz.
36:25Over here,
36:26just one little thing
36:27I forgot to mention.
36:29Your match,
36:30it is now
36:31a Miracle on 34th
36:33street fight.
36:36All right,
36:37the holiday tradition
36:38is back.
36:39That's it.
36:39Cancel Christmas.
36:40Anything goes.
36:41I hate the holidays.
36:45No, no, no.
36:48You want it?
36:49You want it?
36:56I don't know
36:57what to say anymore.
36:58Uh-oh.
37:00Miz is going to go
37:01for a ride again.
37:04Beautiful.
37:09Oh, yeah.
37:10Do you see it?
37:12What would you call this
37:13in a Christmas spirit?
37:18We paused the worm.
37:19Oh.
37:20Well, he's trying
37:20to cookie break.
37:21Well, he carved up.
37:22And now Tozawa.
37:26You know,
37:26reindeer fly,
37:28but...
37:31I guess
37:33elves do as well.
37:35Of course they do,
37:36Cole.
37:36How do you think
37:36they get to and from
37:37the North Pole?
37:38Miz just threw up
37:39the cookies.
37:44Of course,
37:45of course it's truth.
37:46Of course,
37:47it's truth
37:48in the bunny outfit.
38:03I'm having flashbacks
38:04to the Rosebugs,
38:05Michael Cole.
38:06This is...
38:07Oh!
38:08The guitar
38:09just smashed
38:11through the Miz
38:11and a standing
38:13ovation coming.
38:14Henry
38:15puts Miz
38:16through the table.
38:18One, two...
38:20Embarrasses Miz
38:22again.
38:24Here is your winner,
38:27Joe Henry!
38:29I believe in the magic
38:32of Christmas.
38:33I believe
38:34in Joe Henry!
38:37I believe in Joe Henry!
38:39I believe in Joe Henry!
38:44I believe in the magic of Christmas.
38:57You all right?
38:59I'm good.
38:59I'm ready to use.
39:00Listen, man.
39:01You my brother.
39:03When something ain't right,
39:04I feel it.
39:05I need you locked in,
39:07but I need you by me tonight.
39:08You all right?
39:12Man, let me be 100 with you.
39:15I feel like ain't nothing
39:16been going right my way, man.
39:20Everywhere I turn to.
39:23It's one thing
39:24to put me
39:25in a bad spot.
39:27It's another thing
39:28for me to put my brother
39:29in a bad spot, too, man.
39:31And I ain't trying
39:31to do that to you tonight.
39:32Man,
39:33the only bad spot
39:34is in your head, brother.
39:36I've been telling you.
39:38I need you, bro.
39:39You it.
39:41You a world champion,
39:43all right?
39:43The Jey Uso I know,
39:45eight-time tag team champion.
39:47Longest-rated tag team champion,
39:49brother.
39:49You him.
39:50The Jey Uso I know,
39:52just like me,
39:54got everybody around the world,
39:56got everybody in that arena,
39:58ready to yell,
40:00one word,
40:02four letters,
40:05I need you.
40:08You all right?
40:14Together.
40:18Let's get out.
40:19I love you.
40:21Back at you.
40:24Jimmy did his best
40:25to hype up his twin,
40:27but whether the brothers
40:28were on the same page
40:29remained to be seen.
40:30For the Usos,
40:31there was only one way
40:32to prove they are back on top
40:34by becoming
40:34nine-time tag team champions.
40:37But the brothers
40:37haven't seen
40:38the top of the mountain
40:39for a while,
40:40two years and nine months
40:41to be exact.
40:42And the men
40:43who were at the top
40:44of that mountain
40:45going into the world
40:46tag team title match
40:47last Monday,
40:48AJ Styles and Dragon Lee,
40:49they've proven
40:50that they're fighting champions
40:51and they wouldn't go down easy.
40:53So if the Usos
40:54wanted to reclaim
40:55their former glory,
40:56they were going to have
40:57to pull out
40:58all the stops.
41:07You can see Big Jim
41:08reaching for his ribs
41:10there as he comes over.
41:11You saw the drop
41:13in the spirits
41:14of Jey Uso.
41:15Have our powers wading.
41:16He got a little pep talk
41:17in the corner there
41:18on that tag
41:19from Brother Jimmy.
41:20And it took a beat
41:21too long
41:22because back in the fight
41:24now is Dragon Lee.
41:26You can see
41:27that was exactly
41:28where the Usos
41:29were looking for
41:29that double splash
41:30perhaps.
41:31But things have changed
41:32in a big way
41:33since Dragon Lee
41:34got punched in the hole.
41:34Dragon Lee's rubbing it out.
41:35Oh my!
41:37He just launched himself
41:39all the way
41:41over our desk
41:42and took out Big Jim.
41:44An absolute kamikaze
41:46dive there
41:47from Dragon Lee
41:48who may have maimed
41:49himself in the process.
41:50Big Jim
41:51looks absolutely wasted
41:53here on our announce desk.
41:56Oh, there's a world
41:57of the talent.
41:57Look at this!
41:58Truett's head!
41:59Jey survives it.
42:00Did you see the distance
42:02that was covered by Lee?
42:03Meanwhile,
42:04back in the center
42:05of the ring!
42:05Back and forth they go!
42:07Styles
42:08and main event Jey!
42:11Oh, Styles
42:11clash being lined up
42:13and he hits it!
42:14He hits it!
42:15He hits it!
42:16One, two, three!
42:18Jey survives!
42:21This is outrageous!
42:23Both teams
42:24and Noah Lyles
42:26is losing his mind
42:27at ringside too
42:28but both teams
42:29dropping the heaviest
42:31of artillery
42:32absolute psycho behavior
42:33though from Dragon Lee.
42:35Devastating effectiveness
42:37but this is the moment
42:39surely
42:40the champs
42:41were going to retain
42:42Jey Lusso
42:44dig about as deep
42:46as he's ever digged
42:47in his career
42:48to kick out.
42:48wow
42:49Styles is in disbelief
42:51in absolute disbelief
42:53the Pele kick
42:54the Styles clash
42:55and still
42:56they fight on
42:57in front of this
42:59massive crowd
43:00for the World Tag Team Championship.
43:03Both teams
43:04have had their moments
43:05of despair
43:05in this one
43:06but from despair
43:07to where
43:08the answer
43:09for the tag champs
43:12is perhaps
43:13incoming now
43:14and with Big Jim
43:15down and out
43:16Jey Lusso
43:17left!
43:18looking for this
43:20wow
