00:00Lyra being absolutely dominated to this point in the matchup.
00:04Things starting to look bleak for Valkyria and
00:07Bayley who's trying to rally the WWE fans.
00:14Unfortunately, the fans can't fight Lyra's battle for her.
00:17She is being decimated by the powerhouse of the Judgment Day.
00:27Lyra really has to make a tag now to Bayley.
00:31Let's see how eager Bayley is to make a tag.
00:35The Judgment Day employing that classic tag team strategy,
00:39cutting the ring in half.
00:40Flash in the corner by Raquel, now the double team coming,
00:44Roxanne with that uppercut.
00:47Raquel and Roxanne, former tag team champions together,
00:50side rush and leg sweep, floats into the cover,
00:52hooks the leg, Lyra kicks out at two.
00:57Well, maybe Bayley should follow suit like Roxanne and
00:59just turn your back on Lyra.
01:01Find a new group that suits you better to get you closer toward your goals.
01:07Judgment Day.
01:08Better than cosplaying as a pigeon.
01:10It's a raven, by the way.
01:14Judgment Day leads the series at two wins to one,
01:19including a win back in April.
01:22They're gonna do so again tonight.
01:24Big right hands by Valkyria, trying to create some separation.
01:28Gonna free herself from the grip of Perez.
01:30And Roxanne sends Lyra to the mat again.
01:33That's why they call her the prodigy.
01:35Wisdom beyond her years.
01:37And continuing to work on the left arm of Lyra Valkyria.
01:40A genius level in-ring IQ.
01:46A fan, a former two-time NXT champ, tag made to Raquel Rodriguez.
01:52Tied for first all-time with five tag team title reigns.
01:57She delivers a boot to Lyra.
02:02Valkyria desperately needs to make a tag.
02:04And look at the power, critical suplex by Rodriguez into the cover.
02:08Hook to the leg on Valkyria, who kicks out.
02:11And again, Valkyria is showing heart here tonight.
02:13Lyra has suffered through an otherworldly amount of damage thus far.
02:17Kudos to Lyra for hanging in there, but things are not looking good.
02:24Now the bear hug applied by Raquel.
02:27Trying to suck some of the final wind out of the lungs of Lyra,
02:31who creates some space.
02:34And Valkyria planting Rodriguez.
02:37And now has an opportunity to make a tag.
02:44Lyra fingertips away, but
02:47Bayley wasn't there to execute the tag.
02:49Yeah, Roxanne Perez had grabbed the leg of Bayley,
02:52and not allowed Lyra to make the tag.
02:54And Raquel Rodriguez now sent over the top rope to the floor.
02:57And now Lyra's got an opportunity.
02:59Maybe not.
03:00Raquel Rodriguez, again, looking to power Lyra out of the ring,
03:04and dropping her on the floor.
03:06Let's go.
03:07Let's go.
03:07Ah!
03:09Ah!
03:09Oh, no, look at this.
03:11Oh, look at.
03:12Lyra able to free herself.
03:14Yeah, Raquel stumbling as Lyra was able to knock her off, balance it.
03:19Lyra escaped out the back door, and then flipped the leg of Raquel,
03:23forcing her into the ring post.
03:25And now Valkyria trying to kick away the prodigy.
03:28She manages to do so.
03:30And now makes the tag, and here comes Bayley.
03:33And the role model.
03:35Suicide dive, taking out Raquel Rodriguez.
03:39This is what it's going to take.
03:41Bayley has been unleashed.
03:46And Bayley now measuring Raquel up from the second row.
03:49Nice elbow right to the back of the neck.
03:50Bayley into the cover.
03:51Looking for the win here.
03:52Hook to the leg on Raquel, who kicks out at two.
03:55You can feel the urgency emanating from Bayley.
03:58That onslaught of offense she just released.
04:02Very effective, trying to rip down the much stronger Raquel.
04:06Look for the sunset flip.
04:07Raquel able to fork and turn it into a clothesline.
04:10Tag made from the outside by Perez.
04:12And the prodigy.
04:14Looking for Pop Rocks.
04:15And Bayley able to shoo her away.
04:17And now, Bayley backs you, that's delivered.
04:21And Bayley's fired up.
04:27There's that sunset flip into the buckle.
04:32Tagged to Lyra.
04:33Tagged.
04:38Power from Bayley.
04:41Lyra is now leading on a double team.
04:45Is it enough to give Valkyria a win?
04:47And Roxanne Perez rolling toward the bottom rope.
04:50And that cost Ryra some valuable time, as Liv Morgan grabs the leg of Roxanne.
05:03And for the second straight week, the world champion's been sent to the locker room.
05:08This is another travesty with the women's world champion, for God's sakes.
05:17Roxanne just cleaned Bayley's clock, and Lyra Valkyria taking out Rodriguez.
05:22Morgan's got to go back to the locker room.
05:24Roxanne Perez now from behind.
05:26Look at her take advantage of the destruction.
05:28Kick out by Lyra.
05:31Back kick by Perez.
05:33Looking for Pop Rocks.
05:35Wow.
05:36What a kick by Lyra, dropping Roxanne.
05:42Morgan hovering some words to Dominic Mysterio.
05:51Probably words of affirmation, everyone has their own love language.
05:55Tag, here comes Bayley.
05:56The four-time world champion is legal.
05:59And look at Dominic Mysterio, now up on the apron.
06:03I just saw what looked at.
06:04I just saw what looked at.
06:05Raquel Rodriguez dumping Bayley off the destruction.
06:10Roxanne Pop Rocks.
06:12The cover.
06:15And it's just a kick out of two and a half by Bayley.
06:23Rodriguez now hoisting up Valkyria.
06:27Oh, my God.
06:28Oh, my God.
06:29And Lyra now sending Raquel out to the apron.
06:31She hit hard.
06:33Both collapsed to the floor.
06:34Lyra immediately clutching at her left knee.
06:38And Dominic again on the apron.
06:40Send this guy out of here, ref.
06:44Oh, no.
06:45Dom dropped his championship.
06:47But Bayley now in a tug-of-war with Perez.
06:52It's the Triple-A Mega Championship.
06:56Oh, no.
06:57That's off the face of Dominic.
06:59Roll up now by Bayley.
07:01Bayley and Lyra with the win.
07:03Here are your winners.
07:05The team of Lyra Valkyria.
07:09It's Bayley.
07:12Well, Corey, big, big win for Bayley and Lyra to get into the win column tonight.
07:19Well, they better share some of their winner's purse with that crook and referee.
07:23Would you say his name was?
07:25Derek Sanders.
07:26I've been calling it Tom for the last couple years.
07:29Either way, it's irrelevant.
07:31Hope I forget his name sooner than later.
07:33What a win for the role model Bayley and Lyra Valkyria.
07:38A heartbreaker for all of the Judgment Day.
07:41A tug-of-war over the Mega Championship.
07:43Taking Dirty Dom off the apron.
07:46Bayley capitalizing and pitting Perez.
07:49This will not sit well in the Judgment Day clubhouse.
07:52Well, things backfired again for Lyv Morgan and Dirty Dom here tonight.
07:55Well, ladies and gentlemen, later on tonight, Roman Reigns, Jacob Fatu,
07:59signed the contract for Sunday's Tribal Combat.
08:03Let's take a look back at last week.
08:09Roman, bring your punk ass out here so I can dog walk your punk ass.
08:17What the hell are we doing, Jacob?
08:19You lost that backlash.
08:21You were supposed to acknowledge him, and you didn't.
08:25You don't mess around and put your hands on management.
08:28Now, guess what?
08:30They about to fire your ass.
08:33Then what?
08:33You back in prison now?
08:37Jey Uso tried to go after Jacob in the chair.
08:41And now the target death rip locked in on Jimmy.
08:47And now the death rip on Jey Uso.
09:00Roman's had it up, and now exchange he blows with his cousin.
09:06Intercepts with the target death rip.
09:09And on Jey Uso into the fray.
09:12Jimmy from the top.
09:16And a 1-D.
09:18Jimmy and Jey Uso came to collect.
09:22And now Roman Reigns with hell to pay.
09:28Spear.
09:31The Samoan werewolf just met a silver bullet.
09:36Fire his ass.
09:37He beat a dead horse.
09:38Let's take it out, Jimmy.
09:38Let's take it out.
09:39Good pleasure.
09:42Roman!
09:45Try boy!
09:48Come back!
09:54I accept.
10:02He's beating a dead horse, he doesn't deserve it, okay?
10:07He should be fired, I understand tribal combat, and
10:10I understand what we're dealing with, but Jacob Fatu shouldn't be here today.
10:14He shouldn't be employed by WWE.
10:16I get it.
10:17Yes.
10:17I get it.
10:19And I told you, I didn't want to go back to my old ways, but
10:21I had to show the power, show the stroke that we got.
10:28He keeps pulling these aces out of his sleeve.
10:31I didn't even know he realized he had the insurance card.
10:33I didn't even know he even knew about tribal combat.
10:38And he understood my obligation to accept as the tribal chief.
10:44I can't ever back down.
10:47But I'm telling you right now, in this contract, there has to be consequences.
10:51If he loses, he will serve me, or you get your way, he's out of here.
10:57Great.
11:01If he beats me, good luck, because we're all screwed.
11:12Yeah.
11:41Wow.
11:51Well, ladies and gentlemen, thank you for spending part of your holiday weekend with
11:55us here in the United States.
11:56We are celebrating Memorial Day, and I'd like to take this opportunity to thank
12:01all of the veterans, including those who paid the ultimate sacrifice, so we could do a show
12:07like this tonight and celebrate all of our freedoms.
12:11Ladies and gentlemen, this is why we celebrate Memorial Day.
12:28It's easy to speak of sacrifice, harder to live it, but some did, on the beaches of Normandy,
12:42in the jungles of Vietnam, across the deserts of the Gulf War, and in the mountains of Afghanistan.
12:53They didn't fight for praise.
12:55They fought for freedom, for each other, for all of us.
13:02Today, we remember the selfless, those who stood in harm's way and gave everything they
13:09had, because of them, we live free, because of them, we carry on.
13:16So today, we pause, we reflect, we remember, and we say, thank you.
13:33I appreciate being able to go to Giants, they met life, as they call it, I still call it
13:38Giant Stadium, because I'm 67 years old.
13:41But, like, that feeling of coming out and, ah!
13:44There's nothing like it in the world.
13:46There's nothing like it in the world.
13:48Pure adrenaline.
13:49It was so much fun.
13:50And you were so fun.
13:51It was so much fun.
13:53I had a blast.
13:53Do you think Colin had any idea what he was getting into?
13:56Colin, yes, he's crazy.
13:58Yeah.
13:58I don't know if you've seen, he's, like, at the Olympics, getting hurt, and, like, he's,
14:01look at him!
14:05And the gear, oh my god, the gear was awesome.
14:10DDP was like, when I saw the headgear, I popped.
14:15He's like, you popped me with the headgear, kid.
14:17Oh my god.
14:18Yeah, because Odell just went to the Browns.
14:22You guys, I can't.
14:25My favorite was, we did a Raw in Philly, we did a Raw in Philly, we was backstage, and
14:30we saw Nia Jax, Colin was like, yeah, since it's Philly, I'm gonna put on a Mets hat to
14:35get them to boo me.
14:36And she goes, oh honey, you don't need to put on a hat.
14:41She said, you got heel face, they're gonna boo you no matter what you do.
14:51Columbus, it's time for the strut cam!
14:59Come on, Columbus, everybody up and on your feet, show us the ruler, Oba, Femi, strut!
15:11Let's go, Oba, come on, let's go!
15:19Let me hear you, Ohio, let's go!
15:28You're a little louder than that, Columbus!
15:31Let the ruler hear you in the back!
15:43Oh, he knows what he's doing, there we go, there we go!
15:54Oh no, oh no!
16:06All right, that's all we have for the Oba, strut, thank you!

16:28campus of the Ohio State University.
16:34Well, it's Memorial Day here in the United States, earlier today, the Street Profits,

17:31Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, L.K. Knight!
17:39Well, Corey, one of the, if not the, most outspoken superstars at WWE today.
17:48No doubt about that, L.A. Knight is a man with a lot on his mind.
17:53And unfortunately, we won't have to wait long to find out exactly what it is.
17:58L.A. Knight will tell you how it is.
18:04And doesn't care who he offends.
18:17L.A. Knight is a man!
18:21L.A. Knight is a man!
18:22L.A. Knight is a man!
18:43L.A. Knight!

18:49L.A. Knight!
18:50L.A. Knight!
18:51L.A. Knight!

18:53L.A. Knight!
18:53L.A. Knight!
18:54L.A. Knight!

18:55L.A. Knight!
18:56L.A. Knight!
18:56L.A. Knight!
18:57L.A. Knight!
18:58L.A. Knight!
18:58L.A. Knight!
18:59L.A. Knight!
19:01Let me talk to you.
19:05My God, it's been a minute since I've felt this.
19:08It's been a minute since I stood in front of this ring, in front of all y'all.
19:13It's been since WrestleMania.
19:21Actually, I'll tell you what, before I get to that, I just want to wish everybody out there a happy
19:25Memorial Day,
19:26especially every single one of our service members.
19:28I want to say thank you for your service.
19:37USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!
19:46And right here in the USA, standing in this ring, LA Knight.
19:51I told you, since WrestleMania, I put the vision in my rearview mirror.
19:56And who was standing beside me but Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso.
20:02But lately, since WrestleMania, I've noticed they've been doing things just a little bit different.
20:07And it's got me thinking.
20:09Because next week, right here on Raw, the King and Queen of the Ring tournament begins.
20:15And I'm throwing my name in the hat.
20:21And what that means is I got a shot.
20:25I got a shot at wearing that crown, the King of the Ring.
20:29And when I get that, that means that I go on.
20:31I got the shot.
20:32Then I'm aiming for that world heavyweight title.
20:35I'm aiming for Roman Reigns.
20:43So, where's that put Jimmy and Jey Uso?
20:46Because I look at Roman Reigns, the most corrupt champion I've ever seen.
20:52All he's doing, trying to go ahead and stir up bloodline of old.
20:56Trying to get some things running.
20:58Just a little bit different than the Jimmy and Jey Uso that I knew.
21:04I know.
21:07I was born again.
21:12I was born again.
21:14They taught you family first, I put that in the past.
21:17Jimmy Uso.
21:26We ready?
21:28We ready?
21:29We ready?
21:29We ready?
21:29We ready?
21:30We ready?
21:48Nah. I think you need to hear this from me. I got a lot of respect for you, man. All
21:56right?
21:56It was me. It was me that fought side-by-side with you at WrestleMania. Me.
22:02Yes, you did. You did fight side-by-side with me. You fought side-by-side with me against the
22:06Vision. Why? Because the way they did things. And now I'm watching you. You're fighting side-by-side with Roman
22:11Reigns and it ain't the same. We're talking three-on-one. It's a little bit different. It just rubs me
22:17the wrong way. I've been a victim of every kind of group. You were too.
22:22I get it. I get it. Listen, I get it. I understand why you all up in your feelings about
22:27the bloodline, man. Hell, if I'm honest, that whole damn locker room got issues with the bloodline because those last
22:32couple of years got ugly for everybody.
22:37We did what we had to do, but it ain't like that no more. Hey, check it. You wanna go
22:43after King of the Ring? Man, cool. Go do you. Hey, if I'm honest, if you win King of the
22:50Ring, man, you got a shot at the OTC. A fair shot. You hear me? Fair.
22:56Fair. Fair. Fair. I heard you say fair. I heard you say honest. But right now, I gotta ask, are
23:02you being honest with me?
23:04And moreover, are you being honest with yourself?
23:10What I mean by that, you come out here two-on-one. You're about to attack Jacob last week, all
23:18that stuff.
23:18And then I think to myself, okay, look, you, you're the one who comes out here and, what, Jay had
23:29a chair in his hand.
23:30You come out here, you're doing that whole thing, and you're telling me that it's gonna be fair.
23:33You're telling me it's gonna be honest. As far as I can tell, you're coming out here as a messenger.
23:37You're coming out here basically not even as the second fiddle to Roman Reigns, but the third fiddle.
23:43And the last thing I wanna see you do is become Roman Reigns' errand boy again.
23:51I'm saying with all respect, but you need to take a lesson from the past. Take it as a warning.
23:57This is your warning shot right now. Right now.
24:02I had enough of all this talk about what we, my brother, out here doing wrong.
24:06You're lucky that Yeet Man ain't here tonight. Otherwise, we wouldn't be talking.
24:10I'm lucky. You're proving my point right now, man.
24:12You're telling me that if Jey Uso was here right now, you two, you two would put the beat down
24:17on me.
24:18Two on one. And then guess what? Roman Reigns would probably run out here, too.
24:21Three on one. Just the same way you did it to Jacob Fox.
24:24Jacob got nothing to do with you, bruh. Zero.
24:28That's family business.
24:32If I were you, man, I'd tread really lightly.
24:35Because if you keep on disrespecting the OTC, our family will become your business.
24:58Jim, you're the one that I like.
25:01I think you kind of like me. I don't think you want it to go there.
25:05Even Jey I'm okay with. Roman is the one I didn't like then. I don't like now.
25:10He's a guy who just can't seem to get the job done on his own.
25:13He needed a Heyman. He needed you. He needed Jey.
25:17Why? Because he can't get the job done on his own.
25:20So what I'm telling you is if you're telling me I don't want it to come there,
25:23I know you don't want it to come there.
25:25But if the family business has to become my business,
25:28I will make sure that goes out of business.
25:30And take that message to your boy Roman,
25:32and make sure you spell my name right with everybody saying.
25:36L.A. Knight.
25:38Yeah.
25:40L.A. Knight with some strong words.
25:42Corey, a lot to think about for Jimmy Uso.
25:45No doubt about it.
25:46You can see the wheels turning in Jimmy Uso's head,
25:49and L.A. Knight as unapologetic as ever.
25:52I don't feel proud unless you make it one.
25:54That's all I'm saying.
25:57Leave it to what it is.
25:58We can be simpatico.
26:01Congratulations, AAA.
26:03One GM to one GG.
26:05Canente Canente.
26:06I love it.
26:07Hey, have you talked to Penta?
26:08Because I have.
26:08He mentioned a little something about the Intercontinental title.
26:11Maybe YouTube, which I love the idea.
26:13Oh, man.
26:13I think that's blockbuster.
26:14Okay, and what exactly is going on here?
26:18This is a conversation.
26:19Okay, you know what?
26:20First, you gift Javon Evans a title match tonight,
26:23and now you're talking to a fellow general manager
26:26about a potential Intercontinental title match for him.
26:30Where's my rematch?
26:31First of all, you're buttoned into a conversation
26:33that has nothing to do with you,
26:34and we are talking about a potential match
26:36for the Intercontinental Championship,
26:38and rematches have to be earned.
26:40Okay, and so what exactly did he do
26:43to earn this match you're talking about?
26:45Dre, I apologize.
26:46This is a Hall of Famer?
26:48Rey Mysterio, let me introduce you.
26:50Here we go.
26:50What do you mean, here you go?
26:52That's what I said.
26:53What's going on here?
26:53What's going on here?
26:54What's going on here is these two gentlemen,
26:57friends, by the way,
26:58fellow general managers are conspiring against you
27:01for the Intercontinental Championship.
27:03What are you talking about?
27:03Rey Mysterio is now going to jump the line on Rusev.
27:06Is that true?
27:08Nobody said anything about that.
27:09I'm talking to him about a potential match
27:11for the Intercontinental Championship.
27:12How did he earn that opportunity?
27:14This is Monday Night Raw.
27:15That's what I'm talking about, earning the match.
27:18Earn it, make him earn it.
27:19Earn it.
27:19Make him earn it.
27:21I got to face Rusev to earn a title shot against Penta.
27:24Let's go.

27:26Fine, it's official tonight.
27:28Everybody happy?
27:30Tonight, I will bongaranga you.
27:34I don't have any idea what that means.
27:38Rusev.
27:38I don't like him.
27:40I don't either.
27:41Let's look at him.
27:42Poor Rey might get bongaranga'd.
27:46Burn it down!
28:18The following contest is scheduled for one call.
28:22It's with the defense from Devenport, Iowa,
28:27waiting for 225 pounds,
28:31Seth Rookin-Roolings!
28:37Seth Rollins versus Montez Ford.
28:41It's live next on Netflix.
29:06It's live next on Netflix.
29:13It's been something of a dream match.
29:15A long time coming, but tensions have finally boiled over.
29:18This is pure and simple.
29:20Who is the better man?
29:22Who is the best of the best?
29:24Is it Rollins?
29:25Is it Ford?
29:26We're about to find out.
29:29A lot to talk about in this story.
29:31The stubbornness of both of these men
29:35finally comes to a head here tonight.
29:37We're about to find out.
30:20We're about to find out.
30:42We're about to find out.
31:28And here's a movie representing the Street Profits.
31:33We need her 232 pounds, Montez Ford.

32:14Interesting matchup here tonight.
32:15First time in a number of years that these two men will go one-on-one.
32:19Seth Rollins and Montez Ford.
32:21Two pig-headed dudes.
32:23Two very stubborn dudes.
32:25Finally going to air out their grievances in the ring tonight.
32:28Basically, the only thing that has found the Street Profits and Seth Rollins
32:33has been their issues with the vision.
32:35Montez Ford doesn't trust Seth Rollins.
32:38And to be perfectly honest, I don't blame him.
32:41And you know what I find interesting about this is the fact that Angelo Dawkins
32:44has not accompanied Montez Ford out to the ring for this matchup.
32:47And I think the reason may be this.
32:49Listen, he loves Tess like a brother, right?
32:51Former tag team champions.
32:52They do everything together.
32:53But Dawkins also understands where Rollins is coming from.
32:57And Dawkins believes that Rollins wants to offer an olive branch.
33:01That there is strength in numbers when it comes to taking on the vision.
33:05So I think Dawkins is trying to stay out of this and let this play out here tonight.
33:09Sometimes that's the best course of action.
33:12Step aside.
33:12Do nothing.
33:13Let them fight it out.
33:19Rollins made some rather incendiary comments earlier in the night that led to this matchup.
33:24Reminding Montez Ford, you've never main evented WrestleMania.
33:27You're not a former world champion.
33:29But with that said, if Montez Ford defeats Seth Rollins tonight,
33:33he now becomes the man who beat the man who has done all of that.
33:36It puts Ford into a whole different echelon of this business.
33:39But here's the deal with this whole Rollins and Prophets thing in the vision.
33:42Listen, Seth Rollins is a veteran.
33:44He does have all those accolades.
33:46He's also a man who was part of a group that played the numbers game for many years in the
33:51shield.
33:51Rollins knows how the vision operates.
33:53He's the one who formed the group in the first place.
33:56And all he's telling Tess is, listen, if we join together,
33:59we don't have to be friends, but we have a common enemy in the vision.
34:03And understandably, Montez Ford is skeptical based on history.
34:07Seth Rollins has betrayed everyone that he's ever been aligned with.
34:11Montez Ford doesn't see why he and Dawkins would be any different.
34:14And Rollins doesn't argue that point, right?
34:16Seth Rollins says, I made this bet.
34:18There's a reason I'm a loner.
34:19I basically stabbed everybody in the back.
34:21He understands that point.
34:23He's just hoping for a loose alliance here with the Prophets.
34:27Oh, Montez Ford referred to it as the Seth Rollins redemption tour earlier in the night.
34:31And Tez just has no interest in it.
34:33I can't necessarily blame him.
34:35Montez Ford, Uber Athletic.
34:36There's the leapfrog up over the top of Rollins.
34:38And Montez now with his champion attack.
34:40But here's another interesting point that Seth made.
34:43He did not get involved in the World Tag Team match at Saturday night's main event.
34:49And what happened?
34:50Come on.
34:51The Street Profits came up short.
34:53Yes, and why?
34:54Because the vision with Heyman involved had a four-on-two advantage over the Street Profits.
35:00Well, look, I don't disagree with Rollins' assessment of the situation.
35:03I can see both sides, both men's arguments being accurate in this case.
35:07Well, and I agree.
35:08And here's Rollins out with a big boot to the face to Montez Ford, driving him outside the ring.
35:14I like that this is how they chose to settle it.
35:16Let's get in the ring.
35:17Let's throw down.
35:18Rollins with a suicide dive, driving Montez Ford in the barricade.
35:21But here's the, no matter who wins this match, in your mind, what is it going to accomplish
35:25as Ford sends Rollins out the other side?
35:28It's going to establish a pecking order.
35:30If Montez Ford gets beat tonight, maybe he's going to swallow his pride.
35:33Listen.
35:34Ford walks in itself into Rollins.
35:36Maybe Rollins swallows his pride and says, okay, Seth, maybe you were right.
35:40And if Montez Ford wins, Rollins needs to keep his nose on the Street Profits business, period.
35:45Oh, what a collision.
35:48Rollins and Ford.
35:56But if Montez wins, isn't this all for naught?
35:59I mean, you still don't have an alliance formed against the strength of the vision.
36:02But Montez Ford, in a way, can find peace of mind.
36:06Montez Ford realizes then he and Angelo Dawkins can focus on Street Profit business and Street Profit
36:12business alone without the issue that could potentially be Seth Rollins.
36:16So you buy into the fact that Tez is doing this for the team and not for himself.
36:21Yes, absolutely I do.
36:23I understand where Angelo Dawkins lies.
36:25I believe he has his reasons for thinking the way he does, for having a little sympathy
36:29for the devil that is Seth freaking Rollins.
36:31And I understand Montez Ford not wanting to get caught, not wanting to get a dagger plunged
36:35into his own back.
36:37He's suffered a couple of spears this past Saturday night.
36:40And here now Montez Ford with Rollins.
36:41Oh, nice neck breaker by Montez.
36:44Cover now.
36:44Hook of the leg on Rollins and a kick out.
36:47And also, listen, just to stir the pot a little bit, no mistake that Montez Ford has been pretty
36:53vocal about maybe winning a singles championship one day.
36:57And I think we've all unanimously agreed that Montez Ford has all the physical gifts needed
37:03to be a major player for a long time in WWE.
37:06But Montez Ford is giving up a pretty serious experience advantage to Seth Rollins tonight.
37:12You cannot afford to make mistakes when you're dealing with the visionary.
37:17Because of all those points that Rollins made earlier about the resume that he possesses.
37:24Sharp jab right to the jaw of Ford.
37:27Well, and you know, I bet it irks Rollins as well that someone like Tez would step up to him.
37:31Oh!
37:32The way that he has.
37:36I don't know if irks the right word, though.
37:38Well, I think there's part of Seth Rollins who understands why Montez Ford has a problem with it.
37:43Rollins.
37:44Oh, knee right to the back of the neck of Montez Ford.
37:47And there's the fist assist of Seth Rollins.
37:50He doesn't give a damn who you are.
37:53And perhaps that's why Rollins has main evented WrestleMania.
37:57Why he is a multiple-time world champion.
37:59Why he's already one of the all-time greats in WWE.
38:02Because Seth Rollins is perpetually looking out for number one.
38:06Yeah, and he doesn't care about anybody but himself.
38:08Unless he needs someone.
38:10And Rollins now second rope.
38:11And Montez Ford back to his feet somehow after that hellacious knee to the neck moments ago.
38:18Rollins slips down underneath.
38:19Going to roll up Tez who rolls through and catches him in the midsection.
38:27And now Montez.
38:29What a splash.
38:30Cover.
38:31Isn't enough to put Rollins away.
38:32Seth kicks out at two.
38:38Montez Ford learning what Seth Rollins is all about.
38:46This August.
38:51From the home of the Minnesota Vikings.
38:56To epic nights of WWE SummerSlam.
38:59Welcome everyone to the biggest event of the summer.
39:12SummerSlam on Saturday, August 1st and Sunday, August 2nd.
39:18Again, ladies and gentlemen, the stubbornness of these two men.
39:21Montez Ford and Seth Rollins has led us to this one-on-one matchup tonight.
39:27Montez Ford wanting to beat Rollins and make Rollins stay out of the Street Profits' business.
39:36Rollins trying to prove to Montez Ford that there's strength in numbers.
39:41Ooh, and a chop again by Ford.
39:45Again, no matter how this shakes out, I don't foresee these two going out for a frosty beverage after this
39:50match or ever going forward.
39:51I think if nothing else, it'll force Montez Ford to swallow his pride and say,
39:56okay, Seth, have it your way.
39:57You can watch our backs.
39:58There is strength in numbers.
40:00However, if Montez Ford picks up the win, Seth better pack his bags and move on.
40:04Yeah, Seth's gonna have no friends at all.
40:06And here's Montez Ford now.
40:08Fishes blows to the back of Rollins.
40:10Rollins with a kick to the midsection.
40:11Going to hook up Ford now for the pedigree.
40:13Montez Ford slips out.
40:15Seth with a big forearm.
40:17That rolling elbow right on the jaw of Montez Ford.
40:20Seth!
40:21Oh, and what a clothesline.
40:22The impact from Ford.
40:24Standing moonsault.
40:25Nobody home.
40:25Rollins moves out of harm's way.
40:28Can't get cute with a veteran like Rollins.
40:31Ford lands on his feet.
40:32Step up in Zagiri.
40:33Drops Rollins back toward the corner.
40:39Ford now trying to get the adrenaline pulsing through his body.
40:42Trying to fight through the pain and the exhaustion.
40:46Rollins launching Montez Ford out to the apron.
40:53Ford now making the climb to the top turnbuckle.
40:57It took a moment to get his footing and Rollins caught him.
40:59Here we go.
41:01Oh, Seth Rollins gonna float through and turn this into the Falcon Arrow.
41:06Rollins for the win.
41:07Hooks the leg.
41:08And a kick out at two by Montez Ford.
41:13Take another look.
41:15Montez Ford got caught.
41:17Took a little too long making the climb.
41:19And once Rollins has his hooks in, forget about it.
41:24First the superplex, then the Falcon Arrow.
41:27Ford was lucky to be able to survive.
41:31Rollins looking to regroup after the kick out by Ford.
41:44Rollins gonna drag Ford back to his feet.
41:49Again, looking to hook in the pedigree on Montez.
41:53Montez counters into a backdrop.
41:55Rollins, oh look at this, stacks him up for the win.
41:57Rollins turns it into a pinning combination on his own.
41:59Another near fall.
42:00Montez Ford stacks up Seth.
42:02Seth now.
42:04Near fall after near fall in this matchup.
42:07Kick by Montez.
42:11Rollins with a superkick.
42:15Montez on wobbly legs.
42:22Rollins catches Ford, lands behind him.
42:25And now with Rollins up.
42:27Orgerac position.
42:29The intensity in the eyes of Ford.
42:32Rollins will land on his feet.
42:33Hook him for the pedigree.
42:35Rollins hits it.
42:37Cover on Montez Ford.
42:40Ford kicks out at two.
42:43And give credit where it's due.
42:47Seth Rollins able to land on his feet and deliver a pedigree.
42:51And somehow, someway, Ford was able to summon the will to keep this fight rolling.
42:56And Rollins beginning to get a bit frustrated.
42:59He hit Montez Ford in the pedigree.
43:01Couldn't put him away.
43:17Ain't got to be his way, Ted.
43:20We work together.
43:22We don't got to be fighting each other, man.
43:27We want the same thing.
43:30You ain't got to be coming at me like that.
43:32I understand that there's a problem.
43:35I'm trying to change, though.
43:38I'm trying to change.
43:41You hear me?
43:42Are you hearing me?
43:44Obviously, Montez Ford has no interest in any type of alliance with Seth Rollins,
43:49despite what's happened here tonight.
43:51And Rollins now with Ford up top.
43:53Rollins with a buckle-pon.
43:56Seth tried to extend the olive branch.
43:59Montez Ford snapped it in half.
44:02Another buckle-pon to Montez Ford, who collapses to the mat.
44:07Seth reminding Montez it didn't have to be this way.
44:10We both want the same thing.
44:12But Rollins always willing to do what has to be done.
44:18Rollins with Ford up, looking for yet another buckle-pon to Montez Ford.
44:23Montez, though, turns it around, sends Seth Rollins outside the ring.
44:27Desperation play by Ford, who's somehow finding the energy to get back into this one.
44:34Look out!
44:35Montez gonna fly!
44:40And now you can see the urgency and the movements of Montez Ford.
44:43He's got a chance.
44:44Rollins into the ring.
44:45Montez Ford has a chance.
44:48Seth back to his feet.
44:51Shove back down into the ring.
44:53Seth not making the same mistake twice.
44:55From the heavens!
44:57Can Ford capitalize?
44:59One, two, three!
45:01Rollins kicks out at two!
45:04That was Ford's opportunity.
45:07And this is where the experience factor could play a part.
45:11Montez Ford landing his bread and butter.
45:14From the heavens, a picture-perfect frog splash on the money.
45:19But Rollins kicked out.
45:24Indeed, an incredible match between Montez Ford and Seth Rollins.
45:29One-on-one for the first time in years here tonight.
45:37Each man is throwing everything they have at the other.
45:40Ford with a kick to Rollins.
45:42Drops him to his knees.
45:43Montez Ford gonna go up top again.
45:47Oh!
45:484.50, no-one home.
45:50And Rollins with a stop!
45:53Seth Rollins takes advantage of the missed 4.50.
45:57And picks up a hard-fought win.
46:00Here is your winner, Seth Freaking Raleigh!
46:08Well, did Rollins prove his point?
46:12The only one who knows that answer for sure is Montez Ford.
46:16Wait a minute!
46:17Angelo Dawkins!
46:18And that's Theory!
46:19Again with a chair!
46:20First tonight, it was Joe Hendry!
46:22And now it's Angelo Dawkins!
46:24Theory obviously blaming Dawkins for the injury to his tech partner, Logan Paul!
46:29Theory vowed to take out everyone who he believes contributed to Logan's injury.
46:34First Hendry, now Dawkins, my God!
46:40Theory responding to the pressure in the absence of Logan Paul.
46:44He understands he needs to step up for the vision, to be the man.
46:48And he did that to Hendry, and now the assault on Dawkins.
47:04The switch flipped in theory tonight.
47:12Ladies and gentlemen, right now I am joined by the victorious tandem from like 30 minutes ago.
47:17Alive of Valkyria, Bayley, congratulations.
47:28So, how are you feeling right now having earned a major victory over the Judgment Day's Roxanne Perez and Raquel
47:36Rodriguez?
47:37I mean, we obviously feel great, Byron, right?
47:40We hate the Judgment Day.
47:42They're annoying.
47:43We love to win.
47:44But we've lost in the past.
47:47We've won in the past.
47:48The Judgment Day has treated in the past.
47:51Treated.
47:51I meant cheated.
47:52You know what I meant, guys, right?
47:54They've cheated in the past.
47:56But we've made it to WrestleMania.
47:58I didn't make it one year to WrestleMania.
48:00Nothing really matters anymore, does it, Byron?
48:03But what does matter is that pound for pound, inch by inch, match by match, for a whole damn year,
48:11we have been the best tag team in the division, tag champions or not.
48:19And we ain't stopping.
48:22Go ahead.
48:23Yeah, dude.
48:23That's why my big win, Bayley, here stays so positive.
48:27I was able to get the big win tonight.
48:29Am I right?
48:32I don't care who's lost faith in us.
48:35This is to everyone who doesn't believe, to everyone who does believe.
48:39Scrap Daddy, Brie Bella, Paige, the tag titles.
48:43You know, we want it all.
48:45We are not going away.
48:47I don't care if it makes sense anymore.
48:50We are going to keep on coming until we have success.
48:55Am I right?
48:59Well, coming up next week, we heard the announcement earlier on tonight.
49:02You have a chance for major success with the start of the Queen of the Ring Tournament.
49:09We only have about 20 seconds left.
49:11The possibility of winning this tournament, competing.
49:14How do you feel?
49:14Well, Byron, I hope you know who you're talking to.
49:16I almost won the Queen of the Ring Tournament two years ago.
49:20And Big Wynn Bayley, here, has never been in one.
49:23But she's won everything else under the sun.
49:25And so, uh, I quite like it.
49:26I can swallow up, bottle up.
49:28Ladies and gentlemen, Monday Night Raw is live tonight in Columbus, Ohio, on the campus of the Ohio State University.
49:37Moments ago, Seth Rollins and Montez Ford airing their grievances against each other in the ring in a great one
49:43-on-one match.
49:44A fantastic match between two world-class superstars.
49:48Montez Ford went for broke, but it did not pay off.
49:52Rollins stomping Tez's face into the canvas and picking up a big, big win.
49:58But in the aftermath, there would be no celebration.
50:01Rather, Austin Theory, armed with a steel chair, taking out his frustrations on Angelo Dawkins, as promised, to avenge Logan
50:11Paul.
50:12We have Theory stepping up tonight and sending a message to everyone.
50:28What's going on, Dawkins?
50:30I had a match.
50:31They found the perfect time.
50:32I saw it.
50:33To hit my brother, to get my brother.
50:34He's in there, calm down.
50:36He's in there, he's being worked on.
50:37We're waiting on him.
50:38Hey, Ted, is he all right, man?
50:41They're working on him.
50:41Is he okay?
50:42They're working on him.
50:44Look, man.
50:46You're right, we got bigger fish to fry right now.
50:50Some more important things that's going on right now.
50:52My brother's out, and he needs somebody, and he's us.
50:56Us?
50:57Us.
51:09It's got to end, man.
51:12It's got to end.
51:14I gotta cut the head off the snake.
51:18I want Braun Breaker.
51:23And I want as soon as you can make it possible.
51:29I'm going to go talk to him now.
51:34Well, it's finally come to this, and perhaps Montez Ford has come to his senses.
51:38Well, through battle, they achieved a level of peace, at least a level of understanding
51:42between the Rollins and the Prophets.
51:43Ladies and gentlemen, let's talk about the upcoming weekend at WWE Saturday night.
51:47Of course, Triple A.
51:48Corey Graves will be there, and then Corey and I will both be in Turrent Italy on Sunday
51:53for Clash in Italy.
51:54Now, here's the programming schedule.
51:55We get underway with the countdown show in the United States at 12 noon on the East Coast,
52:019 o'clock on the West Coast.
52:03That'll be on ESPN both hours.
52:05Then, Clash in Italy gets underway locally at 8 o'clock in the evening in Turrent, 2 o'clock
52:10in the afternoon on the East Coast, 11 a.m. in the morning on the West Coast.
52:14The first hour on ESPN in the States, and of course, Netflix internationally.
52:18We can tell you that first hour on ESPN in the States will include these first two matches,
52:24including the Undisputed WWE Championship match.
52:28The American Nightmare.
52:29Cody Rhodes will defend against the Ring General Gunther, also on ESPN.
52:35The WWE Women's Championship will be defended as the reigning champion, Rhea Bloody Ripley,
52:42defends her gold against the former champion, Jade Cargill.
52:47It is a rematch from WrestleMania.
52:49Paul Heyman earlier tonight called it the biggest rematch in WWE history.
52:54Oba Femi against the returning beast, Brock Lesnar.
52:59And we will all bear witness to tribal combat for the World Heavyweight Championship.
53:05As the OTC, Roman Reigns defends his seat at the head of the table, along with his title
53:12against his cousin, the Samoan werewolf, Jacob Fatu.
53:17It is the time now for the upstart, Sol Ruka.
53:20She has an opportunity to take the Intercontinental Championship from big-time Becky Lynch,
53:26all a part of Sunday's Clash in Italy.
53:30Let's head back to our own Cathy Kelly.
53:34Yeah, thanks so much, guys.
53:36I'm here with women's Intercontinental Champion, Becky Lynch.
53:39Becky, Sol is sidelined tonight with injuries that she sustained at Saturday night's main event.
53:45Although you were initially irate when the rematch was announced for Clash in Italy,
53:49feels like you have the upper hand now heading into that title defense.
53:52Yeah, you know, Cathy, some people get punched in the face,
53:56and they become the face of the entire industry.
53:59And then other people get punched in the face,
54:01and it's a wake-up call that they are in over their head.
54:04Because Sol Ruka stepped in the ring with the greatest female wrestler of all time.
54:08And it's not just me saying it.
54:09Other people are saying it.
54:10Everybody's saying it.
54:11Sports Illustrated says it.
54:12The Bleacher Report says it.
54:14And she realized that she was totally outmatched.
54:17Now, some people might be impressed with her tricks and her flips,
54:22but she hasn't gotten a single clean victory since she's been here.
54:26And her time is running out, because right now, her name, it's written in sand,
