00:00:02Undertaker is just content on beating the hell out of Batista, doing whatever it takes.
00:00:08Let's watch the three count off the last ride. Did Batista manage to squirt out, get that shoulder up?
00:00:14There's two, and he did, just before the count of three.
00:00:20And Undertaker, he smells it now.
00:00:24Smells it, but does he have enough left to finish off the animal?
00:00:28And, Batista, great counter. Undertaker, over the top rope.
00:00:37And Undertaker may have injured that left arm. You saw him catch it when he came over the top rope.
00:00:47And Batista.
00:00:51And look at Batista. See how he's focused now on the left arm of the Undertaker?
00:00:56Batista knows he has injured the Undertaker, wants to take advantage.
00:01:00And then taking that wounded skull and just taking that open wound and just proceeding into the steel chain.
00:01:06And then a ball head wound into the forged steel again.
00:01:10How much more can these two men take?
00:01:15These pitchers tell the story of what it's all about.
00:01:18Of what these two men will put themselves through to get the opportunity to again main event WrestleMania.
00:01:23Watch this.
00:01:27Driven skull first off the steel.
00:01:33Batista is suddenly, suddenly, on record control.
00:01:37But Undertaker, countering, blocking with everything he has.
00:01:40Oh, wow!
00:01:42Oh, my!
00:01:43Oh, my!
00:01:43Oh!
00:01:44The Tombstone!
00:01:45What a counter!
00:01:47Into the Tombstone player cover!
00:01:49Watch it!
00:01:50Taker is going to WrestleMania!
00:01:54The winner of this match, The Undertaker!
00:02:03Absolutely bone-chilling!
00:02:42To be continued...
00:03:00Ladies and gentlemen, you have just witnessed one of the most grueling, one of the most compelling, one of the
00:03:08most intense and competitive matches in WWE history.
00:03:50What an incredible match for The Undertaker.
00:03:52First, with one arm, the strength of the phenom is out.
00:03:57The Undertaker is doing everything he's put throughout the entire match.
00:04:01And watch this.
00:04:04Batista, who looked to be in control after that, went to the well for a second time.
00:04:09But Undertaker, with one of the most incredible counters I have ever witnessed, turn it into a two-stone wildfire.
00:04:17And The Undertaker is going to WrestleMania because of this.
00:04:32We now know what half of the equation for WrestleMania.
00:04:35The Undertaker, who is 15-0 at WrestleMania, will meet the world champion.
00:04:42Who will it be?
00:04:44Ed Jurema-Sterio will find that answer out later tonight.
00:04:48All right.
00:04:56So, it looks like it's the Undertaker at WrestleMania.
00:05:01It's like 15-0.

00:06:40One, two, three.
00:06:49I'll handle this.
00:07:01Wrestlemania, live Sunday, March 30th, only on pay-per-view.
00:07:10Only one May.
00:07:11Well, we are on the road to Wrestlemania.
00:07:13We're here in Vegas, and of course, Wrestlemania's going to be in Florida.
00:07:15Florida, Vegas, great place to visit, but you know, Jarrell, there's one place better to visit.
00:07:19It's the Playboy Mansion, especially when Maria and Ashley are there.
00:07:23And they were there recently, ladies.
00:07:24Still, of course, you know, tomorrow night on Raw, Maria's got to give Santino Morel the answer.
00:07:28Will it be Santino, or will it be Playboy?
00:07:31As King said, Ashley took Maria to the Playboy Mansion, and we're going to take you back to some exclusive
00:07:37footage of their visit to HESA Hideout.
00:07:43We are in Los Angeles, California, at the Playboy Mansion, at a Playboy party, and I am really excited to
00:07:50see what it's all about.
00:07:51The goal of attending this party is pretty much to get Maria to say yes and pose for the cover
00:07:57of Playboy.
00:07:58Santino may have his issues, but hey, Santino ain't here tonight.
00:08:02It's fun, and I know Maria's going to see it, and she's going to be like, this is what I'm
00:08:06missing.
00:08:07All the people, all the stuff, the pool, the everything.
00:08:10Oh, my goodness.
00:08:11Being out in front of this huge, amazing mansion, it is so glamorous and so wonderful.
00:08:17I feel like a rock star.
00:08:19I guess this is for Knight Rider.
00:08:22I really didn't know what to expect, but the longer I've been here, the more exciting it is.
00:08:28She was hot.
00:08:30No one tells Santino.
00:08:32I want to meet HESA.
00:08:34I want to see what he thinks.
00:08:37I was just wondering if you thought that I would be good at it or that it would come out
00:08:43really well.
00:08:44What do you think?
00:08:45It's obvious.
00:08:48You know how the fans feel about it.
00:08:50Do you guys really want to see me pose for Playboy?
00:08:54That went really awesome.
00:08:56I mean, if I were her, I wouldn't say no.
00:08:58Hugh Hefner comes up to you.
00:08:59He gives you his approval.
00:09:00It went pretty darn good.
00:09:02Now, having this opportunity laid in front of me, and to meet the man himself, Hugh Hefner, I have so
00:09:08much to think about.
00:09:12The following is a career-threatening match.
00:09:16Where if Ric Flair loses his match tonight, he will be forced to retire.
00:09:24Kennedy!
00:09:29Introducing first, from Green Bay, Wisconsin, weighing in at 243 pounds, Mr. Kennedy!
00:09:50Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to get out your cameras.
00:09:57Today marks the end of an era as you bear witness to the man who will single-handedly end the
00:10:09legendary career of the nature boy, Ric Flair, Mr. Kennedy!
00:10:38Thank you, Ric Flair, thank you, Ric Flair, thank you, Ric Flair, thank you.
00:10:55It may be all true.
00:11:01Certainly a career-defining opportunity for Mr. Kennedy!
00:11:14And making his way to the ring, from Charlotte, North Carolina, the nature boy, Ric Flair!
00:11:36We have to ask ourselves, ladies and gentlemen, is this the last time that we will see the nature boy
00:11:42style and profile to the squared circle?
00:11:46Because, as we know, in November, the chairman of the WWE, Mr. McMahon, made the mandate that the next match,
00:11:55if we're lost, he will retire.
00:11:56Well, there you see, pretty boy Floyd Mayweather, Jr., witnessing this, well, what could be a very historic match.
00:12:19Well, talking to Ric Flair earlier today, he felt it to be in an upbeat mood, or wanted those around
00:12:25him to feel that way.
00:12:26But the concern was certainly in his eyes, knowing that this could be his last wrestling match of his entire
00:12:35illustrious career.
00:12:39We're left, left knee, so we had noticed that, was injured by MVP on Friday night's SmackDown.
00:12:45It was re-injured last Monday by Mr. Kennedy.
00:12:49There's Mr. Kennedy, got a little styling and profiling of his own.
00:12:55Trying to rub it into the face of a 16-time world champion.
00:13:04Vintage Ric Flair, competing in his fourth decade.
00:13:09That's how you do it, right there.
00:13:20Kennedy says he is the present and future of the WWE.
00:13:30Beating Ric Flair tonight will certainly define that young man's career in many ways for years to come.
00:13:44A little smirk on the face of, oh, Kennedy.
00:13:48You know, he just, I mean, it's just utter disdain, disrespect for one of the greatest of all time.
00:13:56I mean, that's not just for sure.
00:13:59Kennedy really does not respect Ric Flair as he should.
00:14:01Look at this, though.
00:14:02And Flair trying to beat some respect into Mr. Kennedy.
00:14:07And Kennedy, comparably to what we saw last Monday, not on Raw,
00:14:13Kennedy going right back to the injured left knee of Ric Flair.
00:14:17Whether we like it or not, ladies and gentlemen,
00:14:19the exploitation of the injury is smart in-ring strategy.
00:14:35Kennedy continuing to focus in the leg, half-bossing crab,
00:14:38wrenching the knee of Flair.
00:14:40Flair is a tap out or a submission away from his career ending here tonight.
00:14:45And we both know that this has been part of what Kennedy's strategy is all about,
00:14:57thinking that he's in there or knowing that he's in there with a Ric Flair that's injured, not 100%.
00:15:03But J.R., you and I have known Ric Flair for a lot of years.
00:15:06I've seen Ric Flair with it.
00:15:08If it wasn't for ace bandages, he would have no wardrobe at all,
00:15:10but he still would go out there and compete and still win.
00:15:19Kennedy relentless.
00:15:22Again, trying to triple Ric Flair.
00:15:26And Kennedy must be aware of the referee's 10-count.
00:15:30Referee has a 10-count to work with.
00:15:32Kennedy doesn't want to be counted out of this contest.
00:15:34Oh, boy.
00:15:36Oh, not good.
00:15:38Move it.
00:15:38One.
00:15:40Ring post is not going to forgive.
00:15:44Look at this.
00:15:45Look at this.
00:15:47And I haven't seen that since the hitman Hart used it.
00:15:50The figure four around the ring post,
00:15:52and Flair tasting some of his own painful medicine.
00:15:57Oh.
00:15:58Oh.
00:16:00What we're seeing here from Kennedy is having a two-fold effect.
00:16:04Not only is it doing damage to Ric Flair,
00:16:08but it's also when you take away Flair's legs.
00:16:11Oh, my God.
00:16:14Totally disrespectful is this brash but talented Kennedy.
00:16:19I was saying when you take away Flair's legs,
00:16:21you take away his most potent weapon.
00:16:23And there's a cover.
00:16:24Kennedy's got a cover and a near fall.
00:16:26First near fall of the contest earned by Mr. Kennedy.
00:16:35Egocentric, the somewhat narcissistic Kennedy.
00:16:39Oh, there you go.
00:16:40Taste that.
00:16:42And Kennedy did not retaliate,
00:16:45but only in the most effective way he could.
00:16:48Back to the leg.
00:16:50Look at this.
00:16:51And now Kennedy using Ric Flair, trying to use it.
00:16:55Trying to get it, but Flair's blocking it.
00:16:57Bigger four is not blocked now.
00:16:59It's up.
00:17:02How ironic would it be for that man to end his career via submission to his own figure four leg
00:17:12lock?
00:17:13You choose your own room.
00:17:14Oh, baby.
00:17:19We're trying to reverse the pressure by rolling to the stomach, which would put pressure on Kennedy's leg.
00:17:30And you can hear the pain and flares in his voice.
00:17:33Look at this.
00:17:35Ric Flair had to be moments away from submitting to a maneuver that he has perfected over the last many,
00:17:47many years.
00:17:56Kennedy counters the nature boy.
00:18:00And Kennedy may do it here.
00:18:03Both lines are neutralized.
00:18:06And he saw another near a ball.
00:18:08So Kennedy dominating thus far.
00:18:11Here at No Way Out.
00:18:12Kennedy better stay focused.
00:18:19It would not be bright for Kennedy to get himself disqualified.
00:18:23And he is a very, very intelligent competitor.
00:18:31Uh-oh.
00:18:32Flair slid out the back door and then retaliates with a shot block of his own.
00:18:37How many times, ladies and gentlemen, have we seen that and that?
00:18:41Woo!
00:18:42Another shot block.
00:18:47Looks like Flair's starting to feel a little bit of momentum here.
00:18:54Flair looking to take Kennedy to school.
00:18:58Kennedy's going to try to steal one.
00:19:01Kennedy pulls Flair's tights, which is obvious, and then tried to use the ropes for an unfair advantage.
00:19:10Kennedy will win this match, obviously, ladies and gentlemen, any way that he can.
00:19:15He almost disrobed Ric Flair.
00:19:33Flair's got Kennedy in the center of the ring in a figure four leg lock.
00:19:47Oh, Kennedy's a big trouble.
00:19:48He's tapping.
00:19:50Kennedy's tapped.
00:19:55Here's your winner by submission, the nature boy, Ric Flair.
00:20:03The man who has entertained generations has survived to live the fight another day.
00:20:13Oh, man.
00:20:13One of the most passionate athletes in all of sports entertainment has persevered one more time.
00:20:32Your winner at Bills, limousine ride, jet fly, kiss dealing, wheeling dealing, never going to retire, son of a guy.
00:20:54The nature of our
00:20:57Rick

00:21:01Woo
00:21:07Woo
00:21:09How can you not love it
00:21:12How can you not love that man
00:21:15And what he has contributed to this business
00:21:18He's still stealing kisses
00:21:20And you heard him say it
00:21:21Never going to retire
00:21:27Rick player played the winning hand
00:21:30Tonight in Las Vegas
00:21:32Much to the light
00:21:33Of the semi-croud
00:21:35And our fans around the world
00:21:39Woo

00:21:53Pretty rugged out there in that cage, huh
00:21:55That elimination chamber
00:21:59What's going to happen tomorrow night when my son, your little buddy, Hornswaddle
00:22:04When he's in the steel cage with me
00:22:07How do you think he's going to feel
00:22:10There's not a damn thing you or anybody else can do about it
00:22:15And as bad as you're hurting now
00:22:17It's nothing compared to the tough love I'm going to give my son
00:22:36Well, there's JBL
00:22:41Pacing backstage, he looks a little worried
00:22:43The mauling millionaire
00:22:44The competing elimination chamber
00:22:47Here tonight
00:22:48And try to survive
00:22:50And no way out

00:22:56Rated R superstar

00:22:59Who, however, is newly engaged
00:23:02To general manager
00:23:03Vickie Guerrero
00:23:04But Edge now has a lot of thoughts on his mind
00:23:06We learned earlier on
00:23:07His buddies, Hawkinson Ryder
00:23:08Fan for Brinkside in his match tonight
00:23:10Vickie Guerrero not here
00:23:11Edge is going to go it alone next
00:23:12Well, you know what they say
00:23:13What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas
00:23:15But we know now
00:23:16What happens here tonight

00:23:19Will what happens to Edge
00:23:20Affect what happens in Orlando

00:23:32This next matchup
00:23:34Has come extremely personal
00:23:40Mysterio
00:23:40Closing in on the championship
00:23:43Here's the splash
00:23:44Hey

00:23:48Pokes the leg
00:23:49Hey
00:23:52An edge
00:23:53Look at the capital line

00:23:57Hey
00:23:58And a 6-1-9 to Vickie
00:24:01Vickie Guerrero
00:24:03Vickie Guerrero
00:24:03Just took the bullet
00:24:04For her lover Edge
00:24:07Fear
00:24:08And Edge
00:24:09Retains the title
00:24:11And is the world champion
00:24:13Because of this undying love
00:24:15From Vickie Guerrero
00:24:16For the physical
00:24:18And the mental torment
00:24:19That he caused you to have
00:24:21Rey Mysterio
00:24:22Owes you an apology
00:24:24Ray
00:24:25I demand
00:24:26An apology
00:24:28Tonight
00:24:28Vickie
00:24:30I think
00:24:31I am so tired
00:24:34Of your excuses
00:24:36I'm just trying to
00:24:38You
00:24:39Disgust me
00:24:41I'm here to explain
00:24:43My side of the story
00:24:45Please
00:25:00I almost forgot
00:25:02I'm sorry
00:25:11On the eve of Edge
00:25:12Defending his world championship
00:25:14Against Rey Mysterio
00:25:15This may be the night
00:25:17That Edge
00:25:17Asked the question
00:25:18Of Vickie Guerrero
00:25:21It's the kind of question
00:25:22That a man
00:25:23Asks his lady
00:25:24When he's in love
00:25:29I thought that
00:25:30World heavyweight championship
00:25:31Was the most important thing
00:25:32In the world to me
00:25:34But I found something
00:25:36That
00:25:36That's more important
00:25:39So Vickie
00:25:46Vickie
00:25:46Will you be my wife?
00:25:51Yes
00:25:52Yes I will
00:26:08I just wanted to come out here
00:26:10And personally
00:26:12Congratulate you
00:26:13Now that you're engaged
00:26:15I seriously hope
00:26:17That you're thinking
00:26:18Of dropping the Guerrero name
00:26:20Because as of right now
00:26:22You're disgracing it
00:26:24Who the hell do you think
00:26:25You are talking to my fiance
00:26:27That way
00:26:27You apologize to this woman
00:26:29Because if you don't
00:26:31After No Way Out
00:26:32You'll be the one
00:26:33In that wheelchair
00:26:34I think I'm through apologizing
00:26:37Since you say you love Vickie
00:26:39So very very much
00:26:41Let's see how much you love her
00:26:43After I beat you
00:26:44At No Way Out
00:26:45And become
00:26:46The new world champion
00:27:14This bout is set for one fall
00:27:16And it is for
00:27:17The World Heavyweight Championship
00:27:25Gold Powered
00:27:26beyond the salted peril
00:27:29The new technologies
00:27:31That's not ten
00:27:37Big για
00:27:38It's for
00:27:39That's not ten
00:27:40Big nearly
00:27:42The number of them
00:27:43Maybe
00:27:44Could it be
00:27:45I'm as badder
00:27:46I'm out
00:27:47Ask
00:27:47I'm sorry
00:27:49We're introducing the first big challenger from San Diego, California, weighing 165 pounds, Ray Mysterio.
00:28:01Well, Ray Mysterio's outfit indeed tells his story. He is a conquistador, a warrior, the biggest ultimate underdog in the
00:28:09history of WWE.
00:28:11And again, you see that right arm heavily. It's a five-step victory that everyone's talking about, that Ray suffered
00:28:18in San Diego, Chile, over this past weekend, a live event.
00:28:22But Mysterio earlier tonight said, Coach, it doesn't matter. It's poured. I'm going out there. I'm going to gut it
00:28:28out, and I'm going to win the title.
00:28:30And I've got to give Ray all the credit in the world for showing the heart, the gut, the intestinal
00:28:34fortitude to come out here,
00:28:36even though a lot of people would never say anything, if he decided not to go, Ray is still going
00:28:42to give it a shot.
00:28:43Ray Mysterio is part of our 15,000 fans here in Las Vegas, including his buddy, the WBC welterweight champion,
00:28:51Floyd Money Mayweather.
00:28:56And for Ray Mysterio, it's about an opportunity to win the world title in defending at WrestleMania against The Undertaker.
00:29:13Great respect from the crowd here in Las Vegas.
00:29:34You think you know me.
00:29:41And his opponent, first one out of Ontario, Canada, weighing 250 pounds,
00:29:47he is his first world heavyweight champion, the rated-R superstar,
00:29:54L.
00:29:54What do you wish you ever made?
00:29:57What do you say?
00:30:02What's a real thing?
00:30:04Everything has come to life.
00:30:08Not a chance to feel alive.
00:30:10Edge is coming out with that swagger smelling blood.
00:30:14Not a chance to feel, chance to feel alive.
00:30:22Not a chance to feel alive.
00:30:25Not a chance to feel alive.
00:30:32Not a chance to feel alive.
00:30:34It's going to be the number one contender for the world title at WrestleMania.
00:30:38Right here, we'll find out who will defend the title against the phenom.
00:30:49Almost a sadistic smile on the face of the world champion.
00:30:53Against the former world champion, Rey Mysterio.
00:30:57Matchup's underway.
00:31:00And certainly with that torn bicep, Edge really doesn't care.
00:31:03At least the look on his face tells me that Ryder and Hawkins aren't allowed at ringside.
00:31:06Well, that taped up right bicep's a bullseye for the ultimate opportunist, Edge.
00:31:16So Edge mocking Rey moments ago.
00:31:19Shaking his right biceps and disdain.
00:31:25Strategy for Rey is going to have to be stay away from Edge, use his feet, use the quickness.
00:31:33Like that, oh, Hurricane Rana by Mysterio.
00:31:40Grimacing in pain.
00:31:48All right, come on, out there for it.
00:31:49Got him in Mysterio, let's go.
00:31:56Obviously, Rey Mysterio is going to have to use more of the left hand tonight without being able to use
00:32:00that right arm.
00:32:01And use his legs, like he did moments ago, up the Hurricane Rana.
00:32:04There's a tremendous balance of Rey Mysterio.
00:32:08Boop by Edge.
00:32:10And this is where the master manipulator, Edge, becomes so dangerous.
00:32:29Rey doing the smart thing right now.
00:32:30Taking a breather, catching his breath.
00:32:34You have to wonder if Rey's ever competed with a torn by 74.
00:32:38One, two, three, oh, no.
00:32:44And Edge, the ultimate opportunist, taking advantage.
00:32:50Stalking and hammering away.
00:32:52Took aim right for that right arm.
00:32:56Right arm directly into the steel steps.
00:33:00You heard the fun.
00:33:02And Edge loving every single minute of it.
00:33:14Normally, you wouldn't see a world champion parading around, grandstanding like Edge is in the middle of the matchup.
00:33:20But tonight, his opponent, Rey Mysterio, not what he should be.
00:33:22And you have to hope that Edge is not taking Rey too lightly, despite the injury.
00:33:28Rey Mysterio, we've seen him gutted out before.
00:33:31Can he somehow do it tonight?
00:33:36We're gonna continue Rey, we're gonna stop it right now.
00:33:41I'll stop it right now, what do you say?
00:33:43Nope.
00:33:44Nope.
00:33:49Hedge will show no mercy
00:33:52And he should
00:33:55Sometimes you have to compete when you're not 100%
00:33:59This is for the world championship
00:34:06This was Rey Mysterio's choice
00:34:07He could have backed out of this matchup because of the injury
00:34:11He says it doesn't matter, it's torn already
00:34:13Well that's true Mike
00:34:15It probably can't get any worse at this point
00:34:17You saw how bruised and swollen it was earlier
00:34:20One, two, three
00:34:25Every offensive move Edge is using, is targeting the biceps
00:34:31Oh no
00:34:37Oh!
00:34:38Oh!
00:34:38Oh!
00:34:39Oh!
00:34:39Oh!
00:34:43Back advantage could be the opening
00:34:45But can Rey figure out some offensive attack to utilize this advantage?
00:34:50He's going to have to, not only to win but perhaps to survive
00:34:55Oh wow
00:34:55Mysterio!
00:34:56Oh!
00:34:57Is that going to be it?
00:34:58He clicks to it!
00:34:59He's got him, it's kicked out in two
00:35:01And maybe the arm came into a factor there
00:35:03We couldn't quite grab the leg of Edge
00:35:06Hook the leg of Edge
00:35:07Oh again, Rey doing everything he possibly can
00:35:10To attempt to win this match
00:35:11Oh
00:35:12Again battling back the heart, guts and soul of Mysterio
00:35:15Up over the top!
00:35:16I won't!
00:35:18Use the good arm!
00:35:19Unbelievable!
00:35:20The left arm!
00:35:21Off the DDT!
00:35:22Cover!
00:35:23Hooks the leg!
00:35:24And Edge gets his foot on the bottom rope
00:35:25One day break for Edge
00:35:27That he was that close to the bottom rope
00:35:28But what resilience by Mysterio to use the good arm
00:35:32To take advantage
00:35:34You want to talk about resilience
00:35:37Edge slid into that great post
00:35:39Hit home, like
00:35:43Edge knew what was coming
00:35:47There it comes, Michael
00:35:50There it comes, Michael
00:35:52The 6-1-9 connecting!
00:36:08But Rey wasn't quite able to capitalize off the 6-1-9
00:36:12But Mysterio still digging deep down inside
00:36:15And it's over to Edge!
00:36:17And it's over to Edge!
00:36:17Spear is midair!
00:36:18Hooks the leg!
00:36:20And it's over!
00:36:21Edge retains the title!
00:36:23And Edge will say
00:36:25Crossing clearly
00:36:26There was no better to catch
00:36:29And still
00:36:30World Heavyweight Champion
00:36:32Michael
00:36:32Who's in our Super Bowl
00:36:34Edge!
00:36:35Mike I gotta tell you
00:36:36I cannot believe that Rey Mysterio
00:36:38Was able to gut it out
00:36:39And nearly had a couple of times
00:36:40That close to a victory
00:36:42You gotta give Rey Mysterio
00:36:43All the credit in the world
00:36:44But again Edge is the ultimate opportunist
00:36:47And Edge is still the world champion
00:36:49And Edge will now face
00:36:50The Undertaker
00:36:52In 6 weeks
00:36:53For the world title
00:36:54At Wrestlemania
00:37:00The beginning to the end
00:37:01For Rey Mysterio
00:37:02Edge going up for bicep
00:37:04Time after time again
00:37:06He's talking to the
00:37:08Retorn biceps of Rey Mysterio
00:37:11And Rey today's glory
00:37:13But watch Rey's face
00:37:15And Rey is seated pain
00:37:17Couldn't capitalize
00:37:18But Edge did
00:37:19I knew Rey was trying everything
00:37:21But even though
00:37:21He hit the 6-1-9
00:37:22Just didn't have the strength
00:37:24In that arm
00:37:24And it caught midair
00:37:25Perfectly by Edge
00:37:27For the 1-2-3
00:37:281-2-3
00:37:311-2-3
00:37:321-2-3
00:37:341-2-3
00:37:351-2-3
00:37:351-2-3
00:37:361-2-3
00:37:361-2-3
00:37:361-2-3
00:37:381-2-3
00:37:391-2-3
00:37:421-2-3
00:37:441-2-3
00:37:522-3
00:38:001-2-3
00:38:021-2-3
00:38:092-3
00:38:091-2-3
00:38:132-3
00:38:162-3
00:38:171-2-3
00:38:18Surprise, the world's largest athlete, the Big Show.
00:38:37It looks like the Big Show is happy to be back, Michael.
00:38:55It appears the Big Show has lost a ton of weight.
00:39:03He is in great shape.
00:39:05No time is over, no time's gone around.
00:39:21Guess who's back?
00:39:29You know, I've got to tell you the honest truth right here, right now.
00:39:34I miss this place.
00:39:42And I can't think of any better way to introduce myself back to you all
00:39:48than to say, I will be a champion again.
00:39:58Now, it doesn't matter if it's Raw, if it's SmackDown, if it's hardcore like ECW.
00:40:11Other people come out here and they make statements.
00:40:14They make guarantees.
00:40:15They make promises.
00:40:19I've already been a champion.
00:40:23I've been a champion of Raw.
00:40:25I've been a champion of SmackDown.
00:40:26I've been a champion of ECW.
00:40:30It's only a matter of time
00:40:33till I become champion again.
00:40:39I'm not out here to make guarantees.
00:40:41I'm not out here to make promises.
00:40:44I'm out here
00:40:46to let you know I've lost 108 pounds.
00:40:49I'm faster,
00:40:52I'm meaner,
00:40:55and I'm ready
00:40:56to be back in the WWE.
00:40:59I do see you win!
00:41:12Oh,
00:41:14oh,
00:41:15yeah,
00:41:19yeah,
00:41:20yeah,
00:41:22yeah,
00:41:25no,
00:41:25yeah,
00:41:28yeah,
00:41:29Oh, there's your man over there, huh?
00:41:32Huh? You see the man over there, huh?
00:41:35You see him? You wanna love him?
00:41:37You wanna do something?
00:41:59Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I've got to do something.
00:42:08I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:42:09There you go.
00:42:10What don't you do with it?
00:42:13What?
00:42:15Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:42:23Moving on!
00:49:29Thanks, everybody.
00:49:32And with each day, my WrestleMania dreams faded further and further away.
00:49:41So in the last second of the final hour, I made a choice.
00:49:51Who's number 30?
00:49:54What the hell?
00:49:55My God!
00:49:57It's John Cena!
00:49:59The impossible has happened.
00:50:02I am back.
00:50:06I am the winner of the Royal Rumble.
00:50:09And damn it, I'm going to WrestleMania!
00:50:12John Cena will be in the lane of this!
00:50:14And he's coming for Champions League!
00:50:17No!
00:50:18Unless, of course, you folks would like to have WrestleMania right here tonight.
00:50:25John Cena, ever since I put you on the show,
00:50:29I have become a very big deal.
00:50:34You see, I've been issued challenges.
00:50:37But the same thing has happened to every challenge in the end.
00:50:42I have beat them!
00:50:46But since you can't wait till WrestleMania, you're on.
00:50:51No way out!
00:50:54I don't forget, Randy.
00:50:56I don't forget all the pain.
00:50:58I don't forget all the suffering.
00:50:59I don't forget that you took this from me.
00:51:02John Cena, has he had enough time to recover from the surgery?
00:51:06That's the question that's about to be answered.
00:51:08I am 100%.
00:51:12Oh, my God!
00:51:13Get out of the power!
00:51:15I am stronger than I have ever been!
00:51:19For John Cena, there is no way out.
00:51:24I am more focused because I'm not the hunted.
00:51:28You are the hunted!
00:51:31It's John Cena and Randy Orton for the WWE Championship!
00:51:39The following contest is scheduled for one fall,
00:51:42and it is for the WWE Championship!
00:52:17Introducing the challenger from West Newberry, Massachusetts,
00:52:22weighing in at 240 pounds,
00:52:25John Cena!
00:52:28You can't see what I'm doing
00:52:30You can't see what I'm doing
00:52:35You can't see what I'm doing
00:52:37You can't see what I'm doing
00:52:39I could say that
00:52:39I could say it's way more
00:52:41I can't see what I'm doing
00:52:43I can't see what I'm doing
00:52:43But it's a automatic
00:52:44I'm winning, so you can't see me
00:52:46You can't finish, but I'm just no joke
00:52:47And I've seen me fighting for some storming
00:52:50Live with a fight
00:52:51Good night, ladies and gentlemen
00:52:52John Cena is the hunter, not the hunted
00:52:56in Cena's quest to become a four-time WWE Champion
00:53:02They go on fishing
00:53:05I don't know about you, but the hair is standing up on the back of my neck right now.
00:53:10The anticipation, the expectation for this match is unbelievable.
00:53:21John Cena is magnificently proving that he was 100% when he refuted the 400-plus pound
00:53:28the world's strongest man, and then made the world's strongest man submit in the STFU.
00:53:34Cena is back 100%.
00:53:38Cena is believing him.
00:54:08And from St. Louis, Missouri, weighing under 245 pounds, he is the WWE Champion, Randy Ortega.
00:54:20What you've done to me, now it's time to shine, I'm gonna take what's mine, take what's mine.
00:54:31Hey, nothing you can say, nothing's gonna take what you've done to me, now it's time to shine,
00:54:40why don't I take what's mine, you gotta play my life.
00:54:52Cena looks confident, Orton looks cautious.
00:54:57They're trying to lock you by now, but no one cares.
00:55:07Well, that's the thing about this, Daryl, you have to beat the champion.
00:55:12John Cena has to make Horton submit, or he has to pin on it.
00:55:16What you've done to me, now it's time to shine,
00:55:20and you're a chain-wise man, why you're burning inside my life.
00:55:30My gosh, what a sight!
00:55:34The specter of the WWE Championship, being put on the line here tonight.
00:55:39It's just an amazing experience to be a part of, ladies and gentlemen, here at Rinkside.
00:55:45We wish, wherever you are, around the world, that you could be here as well.
00:55:49Are you right?
00:55:50And this match is being watched around the world.
00:55:52The United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Italy, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, all over the world.
00:55:59What's it, Randy Orton, about to take on John Cena?
00:56:03All live tonight, ladies and gentlemen, and those countries, and many more than the king mentioned.
00:56:08The legend killer is the hunted tonight in this one-fall match for the WWE Championship.
00:56:17Senior official is Mike Keola.
00:56:21Senior official is Mike Keola.
00:56:39Senior official is Mike Keola.
00:56:57Gordon and Cena have established an amazing rivalry here in the WWE.
00:57:02It comes to a culmination here tonight.
00:57:05And quickly, Cena with the inside cradle.
00:57:12And the near fall.
00:57:16Just wondering if Gordon still thinks Cena may not be 100%.
00:57:22Cena again, facing no time to push the envelope and to challenge the champion.
00:57:31And if Gordon was on defensive before, he's really on defensive now.
00:57:42Let's go, Randy!
00:57:45Let's go, Randy!
00:57:47Let's go, Randy!
00:57:50Let's go, Randy!
00:57:51Let's go, Randy!
00:57:53Let's go, Randy!
00:57:53Let's go, Randy!
00:57:55Gordon gains the first advantage that he has had in this contest.
00:57:59That's a big boot right to the back of the face of the skull of John Cena.
00:58:05Of course, Horton's history of striking people in the head with his boot in many forms has been well documented.
00:58:12Hence the nickname, the Legend Killer.
00:58:18Well-measured right hands by Randy Orton.
00:58:21Oh, they are.
00:58:22Orton has certainly earned that moniker, the Legend Killer.
00:58:36The Cena and the ropes, Horton, teeing off on the head of the champion.
00:58:42With high impact, right hands and boots.
00:58:47One, go!
00:58:49One, go!
00:58:53One, go!
00:58:59Nice impression by Cena, who counters Cena again, looking for a cover!
00:59:06Oh, my!
00:59:06They've got a strong two-count.
00:59:09Did the challenger for the WWE title.
00:59:11Boy, it just shows you.
00:59:13Orton cannot afford to get overconfident.
00:59:16Third time that Cena's lost with a pinning combination.
00:59:20Another time, a hook to the wagon, and yet a yes, a two-count.
00:59:32Oh!
00:59:34I need to telegraph that move.
00:59:36Paid the price.
00:59:38A third-generation, one-man dynasty.
00:59:43Randy Orton capitalizing on a small window of opportunity.
00:59:55Oh, my God!
00:59:57And Cena!
00:59:57I'll get up to this guy!
00:59:59Orton left!
