02:11from friday night smackdown as we officially welcome in here blake out alongside the voice
02:18of nxt big joseph gearing up for a huge week in the big app that certainly is correct everything's
02:25always bigger in new york city i cannot wait to get to the world's most famous arena madison square
02:31garden just over a week away from standing the liver of course roughly a month away here from
02:35wrestlemania weekend and of course ray phoenix last year debuting making his wrestlemania debut rather
02:41is a few weeks after making his wwe debut certainly a big time of year i'm certainly
02:47certain that he would love to get another opportunity to be on the grandest stage of
02:51them all last year didn't work out the way he wanted but this year if he can get back to
02:56wrestlemania he certainly would look to steal the show
03:05it's of course ready for some action today but you know he's going to be tested tonight on youtube
03:10he certainly will be and this will be a very tough test for phoenix but also
03:15it's a tough test for this man
03:33and his opponent from stone mountain georgia weighing in at 225 pounds apollo crew
03:45the highly skilled and ultra athletic opponent of phoenix on his way here fresh off of a huge
03:51tag team victory a week ago here on main event apollo cruz looks to keep the momentum rolling
03:55i think apollo crew just looked up he sees that massive wrestlemania sign and at the same tone
04:01we talked about ray phoenix last year at wrestlemania apollo cruz is an individual who's had a lot of
04:07success at wrestlemania as well won championships on the showcase the immortals and i sit here and i go
04:15this is a big match for both these men because time is running out to punch your ticket to las
04:20vegas time is running out to impress the decision makers on smackdown it's nick aldis on raw it's adam
04:26pierce every victory is so important this part of the year because we are all on the road
04:31to wrestlemania nice sign of sportsmanship i know you and byron saxon touched on it last week about
04:36five years ago apollo cruz won the intercontinental championship at wrestlemania we talked about ray
04:41phoenix making his wrestlemania debut within three weeks of his wwe debut just a year ago
04:46how much pressure on phoenix to return to that position this year i think there's a little bit
04:50more personal pressure for ray phoenix i say personal because he sees the success
04:55of penta the intercontinental champion who successfully defended that championship against
05:00dirty dominic mysterio this past monday on raw he wants to wear gold as relative phoenix he's been
05:05close in the past to the nxt north american championship to the tag team championships as
05:11well i think it's a personal pressure he puts on himself an apollo nice with a moonsault from the
05:18apron of the floor we talked about that athleticism from apollo cruz riding high right here
05:23and big big win last week alongside matt cardona right here on main event well yeah you know he
05:28team of matt cardona last week but we saw on smackdown this past friday the voices had randy
05:33orton strike cardona into a cover on the outside and only two right there but the viper certainly
05:39has a sight set on cody rhodes but matt cardona making an example out of him last friday he did
05:45and
05:45you start to wonder is that going to bother apollo cruz this far i don't think cruz is bothered that
05:49he's back to singles competition this week here on main event that was apollo's first
05:53standard tag team matchup in over a year and a half is ray phoenix showing off that athleticism
05:58right there ray one of the top luchadors in the entire world oh ray phoenix makes everything look
06:03so fast risky almost unreal he's explosive he's unpredictable and he's looking to fly once more
06:10and the pop-up with the moonsault into the cover hooks the outside leg only two right there
06:15and of course vick we talk about phoenix making his wrestlemania debut a year ago but
06:20how about his first year in the wwe worlds collide summerslam tag team title opportunity
06:25the royal rumble in his debut of course wrestlemania a big year for ray phoenix
06:30yeah but a big opportunity here a big mistake by phoenix as cruz turning this matchup around
06:35the fall away slam there in that standing moonsault here we go into the cover once again
06:39oh right on the cusp you know apollo cruz is got smooth aerial moves as you just saw there with
06:48that
06:48standing moonsault but he also has an intense aggressive nature about himself since returning
06:53we'll see if he keeps sort of that mindset in this matchup because i've talked about it before and in
07:00the past he's looked for admiration from the wv universe he's taken time to pause to smile he's got to
07:06get
07:06down to get gritty and determined and pick up victories is whoa phoenix picking up some steam
07:13and the back of the heel connects with apollo cruz right there that's one way to slow down the momentum
07:18of the former intercontinental united states champion you talked about ray phoenix and this
07:21is a man you talk about his first year this is what i've learned about phoenix here we go into
07:25the cover
07:25as he blends lucha libre tradition with with high speed edge with high speed high octane offense
07:32he totally feels like he's controlled chaos every time he steps into the ring and even has that rock
07:38solid confidence they can see him stand up to the lemon pepper steppers of trickling and it worked out
07:43very well for him on that night but yeah he's not going to back down from anyone look at this
07:47combination
07:48goes for the enziguri apollo looking to take full control there's that power and from a deadlift position
07:53in the german suplex but he's going to roll with him didn't break the grip and apollo hits two then
07:58he hit the trifecta and let's see can the third time be a charm here for cruz but look at
08:05ray phoenix
08:05fight phoenix almost out of desperation rolls through will bear a position in the cover again only two

12:35i see you bump into that tune big but say it with me here comes the man from alabam by
12:41bama
12:42Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.
12:47We can stay with him as well.
12:49Looking at a true throwback, second generation competitor.
12:52Looking to finish his busy week on a high note.
12:54Boy, this is someone who has been seen on NXT as a former NXT UK tag team champion.
12:59Last night was on Evolve.
13:00He's here tonight on Main Event.
13:02Wherever you are in the world, this man is ready for action.
13:07WrestleMania 42 is presented by Snickers.
13:10Snickers satisfies.
13:11And by WWE 2K26, available now.
13:14GameSpot has named it one of the best games of 2026.
13:18New match types like iQuint and Dumpster Match.
13:20Endless fun with new ragdoll physics.
13:22Jumping today, WWE 2K26, the show never stops.
13:28And here's a man who never stops.
13:31The future of Lucha Libre.
14:08We're taking a look at one of the world's most elite luchadores.
14:11Who last week on Raw went toe-to-toe with another one to the Intercontinental Champion.
14:15He certainly did.
14:16And what a treat we've had here on Main Event.
14:19First it was Ray Phoenix.
14:21Now Dragon Lee.
14:22And Brooks Jensen is in for a tough test tonight.
14:25Dragon Lee.
14:25You may look at this man and say, oh, Lucha Libre.
14:28We just talked about it.
14:29But this is someone who has been toe-to-toe with the likes of Glickler.
14:33He has gone toe-to-toe with the likes of many other larger athletes in the WWE.
14:38He's held championship gold in WWE as well.
14:42For Brooks Jensen, this is going to be a make or break match, I do believe, in his career.
14:47If you go back to NXT, Dragon Lee.
14:49The time he lost the North American Championship against Overfit.
14:52That is very true.
14:53And Brooks Jensen right now locked in on this opportunity.
14:56He knows how much is riding on this.
14:58If Brooks Jensen is able to pull off a victory tonight,
15:01he would have to consider that a massive upset for that individual.
15:05Brooks Jensen, a former NXT UK Tag Team Champion,
15:07but would love to get it done in the singles ranks.
15:10We're talking about a busy week for Brooks Jensen last week.
15:12A very personal issue.
15:13Last night on Evolve with Cappuccino Jones.
15:16Looking to finish this week on a high note.
15:17Well, you know, anytime you have a bad taste in your mouth,
15:20the best thing to do is to get back in the ring and compete, try to get that out.
15:24And I thought we were going to get a clean break, but big right hand from Brooks.
15:28As the throwback from Ranburn, Alabama.
15:30Looking to make this one personal against Dragon Lee.
15:33And we talked about getting back on track.
15:35Of course, Dragon pushing Penta the limit.
15:36Very impressive for the Intercontinental Championship last week on Raw.
15:39It certainly was.
15:40And Penta right now has all comers coming from every different angle.
15:44Whether it's Dragon Lee, whether it's someone like Dominic Mysterio.
15:47And all the way to the outside, Lee is surprised at what's going on.
15:51But as I mentioned, for Brooks Jensen, this could be that match that sends him into a new stratosphere.
15:57You've got to imagine if he's able to knock off Dragon Lee, maybe he gets a phone call from Adam
16:01Pearce.
16:01Maybe he gets a phone call from someone like Nick Aldis.
16:04Because he's in there right now bringing it to Lee.
16:06Certainly an opportunity that Brooks Jensen wants to exploit right here.
16:10The bigger superstar against Dragon Lee.
16:13As Jensen goes for a big swipe.
16:15And look at the athleticism and quickness of the future of Lucha Libre.
16:19Dragon Lee better not take too much time looking at the WWE Universe.
16:22He better keep his foot on the gas in this match.
16:24A nice combination of offense from Lee.
16:26Goes Trace!
16:28And a big connection there with Brooks Jensen.
16:30Of course, Dragon Lee riding high at that incredible run with the World Tag Team Championships.
16:34With soon to be Hall of Famer, the phenomenal AJ Styles.
16:37I can't wait to see AJ Styles get inducted into this year's Hall of Fame class.
16:41Along with Stephanie McMahon, Demolition, Dennis Rodman.
16:45And as we learned earlier this week, Sid.
16:47A star-studded class indeed as Brooks Jensen heads up moving ahead to the outside.
16:52As Jensen might look to follow.
16:53Dragon back in!
16:55And turns him inside out with that big lariat.
16:58And Jensen looking to capitalize right here.
17:00Bit of a hesitation.
17:01Only gets one.
17:03And taking a look at Brooks Jensen over the last year or so.
17:06Has really become a big fixture on Wednesday nights on Tubi for Evolve.
17:09Vic, how has he ultimately grown in that role?
17:11I think he just learns every time he gets into a match.
17:15This is definitely a student of the game.
17:16In the Performance Center.
17:18He's always watching and studying matches from every different era.
17:22Every different genre.
17:24Trying to be a fully rounded superstar here in the WWE.
17:29And you bring up a great point.
17:30I mean, is there really a bigger student of the game in all of WWE?
17:33Than the second generation star in Brooks Jensen?
17:35There may not be.
17:36And that was a textbook belly to back.
17:38Into the cover right in the center of the ring.
17:40Referee Eddie Rango says it's only two.
17:43Jensen right back in.
17:44And I want to get into Brooks Jensen
17:46because he's also looking for an opportunity in this matchup to possibly be a late addition to Stand and Deliver.
17:51Which will be April the 4th streaming live right here on YouTube.
17:56It's NXT's biggest night of the year.
17:58We'll be live in St. Louis.
17:59Great way to kick off the month of April.
18:01Just a couple of weeks before WrestleMania weekend.
18:03And of course we look at Brooks Jensen.
18:06Having a bit of a chip on his shoulder right here against Dragon Lee.
18:09But how about Brock Lesnar back on Raw?
18:11None too pleased with the actions of Obafemi.
18:14Just a week ago.
18:14Probably not happy with what happened this past week on Raw either.
18:18Got knocked right out of the ring in a hurry by Obafemi.
18:21You talk about a collision course.
18:22Those two are on one in Las Vegas.
18:25Certainly going to be one of the biggest matchups we've seen in quite some time between Obafemi and Brock Lesnar.
18:30But right now Dragon Lee!
18:32Slips out the back.
18:33Big connection with that super kick.
18:35And Jensen coming right back.
18:36Big strike exchange right here.
18:39Jensen going for it all!
18:40Well that was a nasty gnarly landing right into the rope so to speak.
18:45And Brooks Jensen's hurt.
18:47Dragon Lee looking to take full advantage.
18:50To be caught!
18:51Hilo to the outside!
18:52As the former Speed Champion turning it up a few notches right here.
18:57Much of the delight of the WWE Universe.
19:02And now Dragon looking to capitalize on this offensive attack right now.
19:05Dragon certainly wants to find his way to Las Vegas in a few weeks.
19:08And Lee!
19:09Oh my word!
19:13Maybe a mistake right there!
19:15As Jensen looking to capitalize right now.
19:17And I think that's an attribute that's not talked about with Brooks Jensen enough.
19:20Is his strength.
19:21He is sneaky strong so to speak.
19:24With another big right hand.
19:26We've certainly seen a few iterations of Brooks Jensen throughout NXT and Evolve.
19:29This very well could be the best version of himself right here.
19:32Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
19:33Looking to turn the corner.
19:34Maybe for a superplex!
19:36Out of his comfort zone a little bit.
19:37Dragon has other designs right.
19:39Into the trio!
19:43Bang!
19:44And Dragon.
19:46Taking full advantage right here, Vic.
19:50And Operation Dragon connects!
19:53Shoots the half.
19:54Into the cover!
19:56And score another!
19:57For the future of Lucha Libre!
20:00Here's your winner!
20:03Dragon Lee!
20:05Listen Vic, you have to hand it to Brooks Jensen.
20:07Certainly pushed Dragon Lee to the limit.
20:09But after a loss to a pencil to the Intercontinental Championship.
20:12Dragon Lee back on track here on Main Event.
20:15Certainly was trying to go through the body of Brooks Jensen.
20:18And when it comes to Dragon Lee, he's so innovative.
20:21Able to pull Operation Dragon really out of anywhere.
20:23And he showed it here tonight.
20:25Picking up, as you call it, a big win on the road to WrestleMania.
20:29And I don't want to say the future of Lucha Libre.
20:31The future is now for Dragon Lee.
20:33Indeed, overcoming a near 75 pound weight advantage in this one.
20:37You see Brooks Jensen showing that frustration.
20:39But Dragon Lee back on track.
20:41Picking up a win at the right time just a few weeks before Las Vegas and WrestleMania weekend.
20:47Don't turn around.
20:48Don't turn around.
20:51Don't turn around.
20:53Don't turn around.
20:54Don't turn around.
20:54You are the best.
20:55Don't turn around.
