00:00:08Then, now, forever, together,
00:00:33together, together, together, together, together, together, together, together, together,
00:00:34this is the cradle of Italian liberty, beautiful scenic Turin, known as Turino to the locals,
00:00:40and tonight, Italy's fourth largest city is set for a banger, WWE style.
00:00:46Turin is located in northwest Italy, in the shadow of the majestic Swiss Alps, and is
00:00:51the capital of the Piedmont region.
00:00:55And tonight, we are in the Santa Rita district at the Enelphi Arena, which is built for ice
00:01:01hockey for the 2006 Winter Olympics, and tonight, hosts Clash in Italy.
00:01:09And the stars are out tonight, including the world champion, the tribal chief, Roman Reigns,
00:01:18who puts his belt in the OTC title on the line, and no holds barred, tribal combat, against
00:01:25his out-of-control cousin, the fiery Samoan werewolf, Jacob Fatu.
00:01:30Who will be champion?
00:01:31Who will acknowledge the tribal chief?
00:01:36And there is Sol Ruka.
00:01:39The upstart hopes to win her first major championship here tonight.
00:01:44But in order to do that, she has to knock off the controversial and outspoken current Intercontinental
00:01:49champion.
00:01:50Becky Lynch looks to bring Sol Ruka to the big time tonight.
00:01:54Rhea Ripley defends her WWE Women's Championship in a Wrestlemania rematch against a former champion
00:02:02because a storm has come to Italy.
00:02:05Jade Cargill wants her title back tonight.
00:02:09The ruler, Oma Fetty, says at Wrestlemania, he beat Brock Lesnar, but tonight in Italy, he
00:02:16will kill the beast.
00:02:19And Oma make it two in a row against this man, Brock Lesnar.
00:02:23Who puts retirement on hold as he seeks revenge on the man who beat him at Wrestlemania.
00:02:33And now, Riyadh season presents Clash in Italy as we welcome you to the first ever WWE premium
00:02:42live event in this country.
00:02:44Live on ESPN and Netflix, this is Clash in Italy.
00:02:57This city, born from history, has played host to the bold.
00:03:14And today, for the first time ever, this stage is out.
00:03:26This is an historic moment.
00:03:34Oh my God!
00:03:36What the hell?
00:03:38It's the beast!
00:03:40It seems rumors of his demise have been greatly exaggerated.
00:03:46A five for Brock Lesnar!
00:03:49In this ring, Jacob, you're beneath me.
00:03:55So I'm born, come back!
00:03:58I will happily beat you again.
00:04:03This will be my title.
00:04:06Not only will I kick your ass, I'll snatch your soul.
00:04:11Here we go!
00:04:11It's all stature!
00:04:12I don't sweat you!
00:04:15Come and get it!
00:04:16This is what we call must-see!
00:04:20Got it on me!
00:04:22The biggest rematch in history!
00:04:26Today, we share a stage.
00:04:29In a country where masterpieces are made.
00:04:33Today, we clash in Italy.
00:04:53You are looking live at the Soul Down and Elfay Arena in Turin, Italy.
00:05:00Over 12,000 WWE fans are expected for Clash in Italy.
00:05:26Today, we're looking live at the Soul Down and Elfay Arena in Turin, Italy.
00:05:49Ladies and gentlemen, the ring general, the career killer, Gunther, who is revered throughout Europe from his time on the
00:05:57independent scene to his rise in the WWE.
00:06:01His first recorded match in Bern in nearby Switzerland over two decades ago.
00:06:08And tonight, for the first time in his career, battles for the undisputed WWE Championship.
00:06:27Gunther, of course, from Austria, a country bordering Italy, as we welcome you to ringside here tonight, ladies and gentlemen.
00:06:35Michael Cole, Corey Graves, Corey, what an electric atmosphere.
00:06:38You can say that again.
00:06:40I had the pleasure of calling AAA last night in Monterey, Mexico.
00:06:43One of the loudest crowds I've ever experienced.
00:06:45Sounds to me like Italy got the memo.
00:06:47They're going to give Mexico a run for their money.
00:06:48Well, these fans are starved.
00:06:50This is the first ever premium live event in the history of Italy.
00:06:53And if you're watching at home here in Italia, you are watching for the very first time a PLE in
00:07:00Italy live on Netflix.
00:07:02Our Italian commentators joining us here tonight.
00:07:04Luca Franchini, Michela Posa.
00:07:06Hi, guys.
00:07:23That was pretty good, Cole.
00:07:24We're going to get you a Vespa next.
00:07:39We're going to get you a Vespa next.
00:08:21We're going to get you a Vespa next.
00:08:37We're going to get you a Vespa next.
00:09:21We're going to get you a Vespa next.
00:09:37We're going to get you a Vespa next.
00:10:09Tony Rhodes vs. Gunther is brought to you by Scary Movie.
00:10:14Every line will be crossed. Don't miss it.
00:10:16Only in theaters this Friday. Get your tickets now.
00:10:19And now, let's head up to our ring announcer, the great Alicia Taylor.
00:10:26The following contest is Skitter Group 1 Ball.
00:10:31And he's for the undisputed WWE Championship.
00:10:45Introducing the challenger from Vienna, Austria.
00:10:51Weighing in at 250 pounds, the ring general, Gunther.
00:11:05And his opponent, from Atlanta, Georgia.
00:11:13Weighing in at 222 pounds, he is the undisputed.
00:11:23WWE Champion, the American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes.
00:11:39QB1, Cody Rhodes of WWE told Corey and I earlier today that he wasn't sure what the atmosphere was going
00:11:45to be like tonight.
00:11:46Was he walking in to an away game or a home game here tonight?
00:11:50Judging by the response by the crowd here in Italy, this is home territory, home turf for QB1.
00:11:58Italy firmly behind the American Nightmare.
00:12:01For the first time ever, a world championship defended on TV here in Italy.
00:12:11The bell rings and we are underway.
00:12:13This is the second time these two have gone one-on-one in their career.
00:12:18Back in November of 2024, Cody Rhodes defeating Gunther in Saudi Arabia to win the Crown Jewel Championship.
00:12:25Does that come into play tonight?
00:12:27I don't believe it will since the bell has rung.
00:12:30I believe in the lead-up to this match, Gunther thought about it.
00:12:32Gunther has obsessed about it.
00:12:34It was a blemish on an otherwise nearly perfect record for the ring general.
00:12:38Gunther wants to avenge that tonight and take Cody's gold in the process.
00:12:49And Cody Rhodes offering a clean break into a somersault.
00:12:54And our official in this championship match is Dan Engler tonight.
00:12:58For Gunther, how do you win the title from Cody Rhodes?
00:13:01Patience.
00:13:01Nobody feeds off of the WWE crowd quite like Cody Rhodes does.
00:13:05If Gunther can wait out the American Nightmare, hope for Cody to make a mistake.
00:13:10Even the tiniest of errors, Gunther can and will capitalize on.
00:13:19In the interview in the Countdown Show, Gunther admitted that this is a grudge match tonight.
00:13:23Not only the win by Cody at Crown Jewel, but the fact that over two Royal Rumbles,
00:13:27Gunther was eliminated by Cody Rhodes back in 2023 and 2024 as Cody would go on to win that event.
00:13:34Now, if you're Cody Rhodes, how do you beat Gunther tonight?
00:13:37Cody's had a lot on his mind as of late as it comes to his, well, I guess, former friend
00:13:41now, Sami Zayn.
00:13:42Oh, what a shot.
00:13:43Well, I believe Cody needs to show Gunther something entirely different.
00:13:47And if Cody has made the mistake of allowing Sami Zayn to creep into his mind tonight,
00:13:51this may be his last night as an undisputed WWE champion.
00:13:55Cody needs to focus on one thing and one thing alone, the ring general.
00:13:58And Cody dropped down, kicked the midsection.
00:14:00And there is that pop-up right hand by Cody Rhodes off the second round.
00:14:05Oh, the Cody cutter!
00:14:07And he ran into a big chop!
00:14:08And that illustrated my point perfectly.
00:14:10I don't know if anyone has as high of an in-ring IQ as Gunther.
00:14:15Gunther studies film.
00:14:16Gunther remembers what he experiences inside of the ropes.
00:14:19He is maybe the most complete athlete in WWE.
00:14:22Yeah, Cody Rhodes in his first title defense since winning the championship in WrestleMania.
00:14:28And look at Gunther now.
00:14:29Oh, the chop driving the champion to the mat.
00:14:32Cover now by Gunther.
00:14:33Kick out by Rhodes.
00:14:34Now, you noticed in the entrance, Cody was wearing that helmet, that mask.
00:14:37The left eye was ripped out.
00:14:39That was to remind everyone of what Randy Orton did to Cody Rhodes after the WrestleMania matchup.
00:14:44And the punch to the face, injuring Cody's eye.
00:14:47Something inside of the American Nightmare changed that night.
00:14:50It was forced by Randy Orton, but Cody Rhodes will tell you himself.
00:14:55Something inside snapped.
00:14:56Something broke.
00:14:57Something changed completely.
00:14:58This is a different American Nightmare than we saw in the lead-up to WrestleMania this year.
00:15:02Cody ripped across the ring with authority.
00:15:04And the career killer, Gunther, who has ended the careers of Goldberg and AJ Styles and the great John Cena
00:15:10over the past year,
00:15:11looks to take out Rhodes tonight.
00:15:14Cody Rhodes has been very open, and he aims to follow in the quote-unquote John Cena blueprint here in
00:15:19WWE.
00:15:20I don't think Cody intends to follow the finale of Cena's career.
00:15:26Gunther, looking for the sleeper hold.
00:15:28Rhodes able to shrug it off.
00:15:30And Gunther now.
00:15:31Cody Rhodes knocked down.
00:15:32You know, I mentioned earlier, first time in a televised event in Italy that the WWE Championship has been defended.
00:15:39Also tonight, the first time on ESPN, the title's been up for grabs.
00:15:44Well, just as Cody Rhodes was able to escape the clutches of the ring general,
00:15:48Gunther connects with a massive boot right to the jaw of the champion.
00:15:56It is appropriate that these two men are the last King of the Ring Tournament winners.
00:16:032024 Gunther, Cody Rhodes, last year, King of the Ring Tournament, and the Queen of the Ring Tournament,
00:16:09start tomorrow night on Monday Night Raw here live.
00:16:12And Turin, as Gunther delivers a shoulder tackle to Rhodes, he continues to work on the midsection of the arm
00:16:18of Cody.
00:16:18What you'll never see out of Gunther in the midst of a match is the ring general being shaken.
00:16:23He is calculated.
00:16:24Borderline emotionless.
00:16:26Gunther is a professional wrestling machine.
00:16:30You know, they talked about it on the Countdown Show,
00:16:32the fact that the last time Cody defended a title here in Europe,
00:16:36he lost to Drew McIntyre earlier this year.
00:16:39Cody Rhodes wants to make sure that history does not repeat itself tonight.
00:16:44Gunther staggered for the moment.
00:16:46Up and over goes the American Nightmare!
00:16:47There's a power slam by Cody.
00:16:54This place is rocking!
00:17:02Cody now with a quick jab to the ring general.
00:17:06Just like that he used to do.
00:17:08The old bionic elbow from Cody to Gunther.
00:17:11Now looking to lock him up.
00:17:14Face first!
00:17:15Pedigree off the pedigree by Rhodes and a kick out by Gunther.
00:17:20And again, Cody Rhodes going to pull out all the tricks as you mentioned here tonight.
00:17:23Cody understands the task at hand.
00:17:25Cody understands the assignment.
00:17:27He knows full well how lethal Gunther is capable of being.
00:17:37Gunther starved for another world title.
00:17:40He's won two in his career.
00:17:43666 days.
00:17:45The record is the Intercontinental Champion.
00:17:47Over 800 days as the NXT UK Champion.
00:17:50Cody going to roll through.
00:17:51And there's that monster dropkick by Gunther.
00:17:55And now Gunther looking for the powerbomb.
00:17:59To put the champion away.
00:18:01Stacks him up for the title.
00:18:03Cody at two gets the shoulder up.
00:18:05And that's what Cody's got to avoid tonight.
00:18:07No doubt about it.
00:18:08And expect Gunther to continue the onslaught after a thunderous powerbomb.
00:18:14Center of the ring.
00:18:15Stack the shoulders.
00:18:16But the nightmare with a little too much left in the tank.
00:18:19Over 12,000 tonight sold out here in Turin, Italy.
00:18:24Went for the frog splash.
00:18:26Cody got his knees up.
00:18:28And now the champion.
00:18:29Springboard off the second rope.
00:18:31Hitting a disaster kick by Rhodes.
00:18:35And Cody now from behind.
00:18:38Looking for a quick crossroads.
00:18:39To Gunther.
00:18:40Looking to retain.
00:18:41Hook of the leg.
00:18:43Gunther kicks out at two and here fall.
00:18:49Perhaps a bit early in this match.
00:18:51To expect to put Gunther away so quickly.
00:18:54Yeah, Cody doesn't appear to be too badly shaken.
00:18:57After landing his bread and butter.
00:19:01And having Gunther kick out.
00:19:03Cody understands there's more work to be done.
00:19:06And Rhodes was fully aware of the work required to get past the ring general.
00:19:10We are so glad that you took the opportunity to join us this afternoon in the States.
00:19:14The late morning on the West Coast.
00:19:16First on ESPN and of course internationally on Netflix.
00:19:20WWE Championship kicking off the show tonight.
00:19:22Cody Rhodes going to head up to the top rope.
00:19:25Looking for an out.
00:19:25Oh!
00:19:26Cody caught her!
00:19:26And he got caught in the sleeper!
00:19:28Gunther caught Rhodes in the sleeper!
00:19:29Great counter by Rhodes.
00:19:31Turned it into a pitying combination.
00:19:32But again into the sleeper for Gunther!
00:19:35And this is what Cody had to avoid.
00:19:37Rhodes is trapped.
00:19:38We saw Cody utilize a reversal moments ago.
00:19:41That was how he defeated Gunther in the King of the Ring final.
00:19:44Yeah, Styles about this.
00:19:46That's Cena about this.
00:19:48Gunther now for the sleeper locked in.
00:19:51And the American nightmare looks like he's starting to fade.
00:19:56And Gunther, his full body weight on Cody Rhodes.
00:20:01Cody's got nowhere to go here.
00:20:05Desperate times for the champion.
00:20:11Gunther now wrestling Cody back toward the ring.
00:20:13Cody trying to somehow hang on here.
00:20:14But Gunther's got it locked in.
00:20:16Looks to me like Cody's managed to slip his chin in between the arm of the ring, Jenna.
00:20:20Which may be the only reason Rhodes is conscious at this point.
00:20:23But Gunther now just continuing to squeeze.
00:20:26This is agonizing on your jaw if you're Cody Rhodes.
00:20:28Cody now back to a vertical base with Gunther on his back.
00:20:32Rhodes now!
00:20:33That will create space for Cody Rhodes.
00:20:36But no!
00:20:37Gunther right back up into the sleeper.
00:20:38The relentless attack by Gunther.
00:20:41Now the well-placed elbows to the champion.
00:20:44And Gunther again has it locked in.
00:20:46Cody may be out.
00:20:47Cody's in the middle of the ring.
00:20:49Gunther's got his legs and arms wrapped around the champion.
00:20:52That boa constrictor-like grip of the ring general.
00:20:56And Cody could be fading.
00:20:59And what a nightmare this would be for Rhodes.
00:21:06Rhodes gasping for air.
00:21:09Opened in his eyes.
00:21:10Perhaps one last gasp.
00:21:16But perhaps not.
00:21:20The WWE fans trying to.
00:21:24Will Cody on.
00:21:25Cody got his foot on the bottom rope.
00:21:28And that will force a break.
00:21:32Much to the chagrin of the ring general.
00:21:39That's got to be so frustrating, Corey, for that man.
00:21:42I'm sure to an extent it is frustrating for Gunther.
00:21:46But Gunther has also spent the majority of his time in this matchup delivering offense.
00:21:51Yes, that will exhaust you.
00:21:53But Gunther still seems to have plenty left in the tank.
00:21:55Whereas Cody Rhodes seems to be running on empty.
00:22:02And I wonder what's going through the mind of Gunther as Cody tries to recover.
00:22:07I think Gunther simply surveying the situation right now.
00:22:10He approaches all of his offense with surgical precision.
00:22:13Gunther trying to solve the American nightmare.
00:22:16Just taking a moment to look at the big picture.
00:22:18The man who spent weeks jockeying before signing this contract.
00:22:22In fact, had to beat Royce Keys to earn this opportunity here tonight against Cody Rhodes.
00:22:27Was all that contract jockeying worth it?
00:22:31I'll give you an answer when this matchup is over.
00:22:33But I understand why Gunther did it.
00:22:35It was psychological warfare.
00:22:37Trying to make the champion wait.
00:22:39Gunther declaring to Cody Rhodes.
00:22:40I'm worth waiting for.
00:22:41Because when I get there, I'm taking what's yours.
00:22:44And the chock's just seen him.
00:22:46Could fire Cody up.
00:22:48Oh, a clothesline.
00:22:49Almost knocked his head off.
00:22:52And Cody with a clothesline of his own.
00:22:54Both men still on their feet.
00:22:58Rhodes trying to chop down the ring, General.
00:23:01Oh, what a clothesline.
00:23:02Turns the champ inside out.
00:23:04And Gunther says that's it.
00:23:06Says he's closing in.
00:23:07Cody Rhodes ducks underneath.
00:23:10Went for the Cody cutter.
00:23:11And again, went for the sleeper side.
00:23:12Headlock Cody with a sleeper out of his own.
00:23:14Sleeper locked in now by Cody.
00:23:15Gunther able to create space.
00:23:17Cody cutter.
00:23:21Cody back to his feet.
00:23:24And a clothesline by the champion knocks Gunther down.
00:23:29And Gunther not used to being on the receiving end of those clotheslines.
00:23:34Rhodes has been able to tap in to what took him to the top of the box.
00:23:37Crossroads again.
00:23:39Crossroads again by Cody.
00:23:41Here's the cover.
00:23:42Hook to the leg.
00:23:43And he got it.
00:23:45Cody Rhodes got it.
00:23:47Cody Rhodes retains the title.
00:23:49Here is your winner.
00:23:50And still the undisputed WWE champion.
00:23:57The American Nightmare.
00:24:00Cody Rhodes.
00:24:04Well, the win belongs to the American Nightmare, but Gunther immediately began protesting.
00:24:11I'd love to get another look, perhaps a different angle.
00:24:16referee Dan Engler was right there to make the call.
00:24:19Something obviously happened at the end of that matchup because Gunther is extremely upset.
00:24:26Let's take a look at the closing moments of this one.
00:24:29Gunther tried on multiple occasions to avoid it.
00:24:32But Rhodes delivering the Cody cutter, which was the prelude to the crossroads.
00:24:40And this is what I want to get a look at.
00:24:41Pay attention to the ring positioning of the ring general.
00:24:45Rhodes with the crossroads.
00:24:48Well, this is the angle we just saw, Corey.
00:24:52I can't tell decisively, but it looks like at the beginning of the count.
00:24:55Here's the other angle.
00:24:57Gunther's foot may have been under the bottom rope.
00:25:01Let's see if we can see it here.
00:25:02And it clearly, clearly his foot was under the bottom rope, which means the official never should have started.
00:25:08You're right.
00:25:08And Dan Engler's, his call is going to stand.
00:25:11He's got the authority.
00:25:12But I personally don't believe Engler should have even began the count.
00:25:17I have to imagine that's Gunther's argument as well.
00:25:19Well, that is the rule.
00:25:20If your foot's underneath the bottom rope, you cannot begin the count.
00:25:25But nonetheless, the referee's decision is final.
00:25:27Cody Rhodes is going to leave here tonight as the undisputed WWE champion, despite the protest from the ring general.
00:25:40A hell of a match.
00:25:41No doubt about it.
00:25:43What a way to kick off Clash in Italy.
00:25:50Well, ladies and gentlemen, Monday Night Raw will be live in Turin tomorrow on Netflix.
00:25:56The Raw superstars are here, including L.A. Night.
00:25:59Remember the special start time, 2 o'clock on the East Coast of the United States, 11 o'clock on
00:26:04the West Coast, 8 o'clock local.
00:26:06Also here tonight, Montez Ford of the Street Profits partying with the sellout crowd in Turin, Italy.
00:26:14It wouldn't be a premium live event without the Judgment Day.
00:26:17The world champ, Lynn Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, and Roxanne Perez enjoying the scenery here tonight.
00:26:24But coming up next on ESPN and Netflix, it is for the WWE Women's Championship.
00:26:30On the left, the champion, the eradicator, Rhea Ripley.
00:26:33On the right, Jade Cargill.
00:26:35A WrestleMania rematch.
00:26:37Live next.
00:26:43We're in the home of Alfa Romeo, Lancia, and Fiat.
00:26:47This is Turin, Italy, known as Turino, by the locals, of course, in the shadow of the majestic Swiss Alps.
00:26:54Turin, Italy hosting the first ever premium live event in the history of this country.
00:26:59And the match that will kick off things at the top of the hour on the ESPN app with the
00:27:04unlimited plan.
00:27:05The ruler, Oba Femi, in a WrestleMania rematch where he beat Brock Lesnar.
00:27:11But tonight, Femi says he's going to kill the beast.
00:27:16Coming up next, ladies and gentlemen, a WrestleMania rematch as well.
00:27:20Rhea Ripley back in Las Vegas knocked off Jade Cargill to win the WWE Women's Championship.
00:27:27These two clash live next at Clash in Italy.
00:27:34The eradicator, Rhea Ripley, looking for a fourth world championship in a match against the WWE Champion,
00:27:43the Storm, Jade Cargill.
00:27:46Let's stand and fight.
00:27:50Come on!
00:27:54Let's stand and fight!
00:28:16Riptide!
00:28:19Rhea wins the WWE title!
00:28:23Welcome to Friday Night, Mommy!
00:28:30I'm going to be the champion of the SmackDowns.
00:28:36Pressure bust pipe.
00:28:41Oh, hold up!
00:28:43Jade Cargill is here!
00:28:45Let's meet you to be fair!
00:28:47Rhea Ripley found that out.
00:28:49Big cupcake!
00:28:50And that clash in Italy, I bust champions too.
00:28:55I'm never gonna run!
00:28:57Every single week, you come out here trying to throw around your dominance.
00:29:03The detail that you continue to forget, is that when it's just you and me, I am going to fight!
00:29:13I am Jade Cargill, I am one of one!
00:29:18Cargill has pinned the WWE Champion!
00:29:21When the match is done, you will be looking up at your true champion!
00:29:41A storm is coming.
00:29:47I am Jade Cargill, I want to start things off by asking you if Jake Cargill has the psychological advantage
00:30:15heading into this matchup tonight, and I want to start things off by asking you if Jake Cargill has the
00:30:16psychological advantage heading into this matchup tonight.
00:30:16Because in a 24-hour period just last weekend, Friday night Smackdown and then Saturday night's main event, Cargill was
00:30:23able to deliver Jade not once but twice to Rhea Ripley, and also pinned the champion in a tag team
00:30:29matchup.
00:30:30To answer your question, absolutely yes, I do think Jade Cargill has a psychological advantage, not to mention the confidence
00:30:39possessed by this woman.
00:30:40I caught up with Jade earlier today and I asked her, what went wrong at WrestleMania, and how do you
00:30:45stop it from happening again tonight?
00:30:47Jade looked me dead in the eye, she said Rhea Ripley didn't beat me at WrestleMania. I beat myself. I
00:30:53got caught up in the pomp, the circumstance, and the bright lights of the biggest stage. That doesn't happen tonight.
00:31:00Jade says she hits Jaded tonight and leaves Italy with the gold.
00:31:05Interesting comments from the former champion.
00:31:12And even in defeat, I think most of the world would agree, Jade Cargill put on a career-defining performance
00:31:18at WrestleMania, even though she came up short.
00:31:21If Cargill can shift her focus tonight, make a few small adjustments, we may have a new champion tonight.
00:31:40This right here is what Cargill needs to be careful of.
00:31:44Dealing with the WWE fans, we've seen on numerous occasions Jade take her eye off the proverbial ball and pay
00:31:50for it.
00:31:53This is what we've ever seen!
00:32:07I've been sleeping, like demons in your dreams. I've been sleeping.
00:32:18I've been sleeping, like demons in your dreams.
00:32:22This is what I'm sleeping. What I'm sleeping.
00:32:24I've been sleeping, like demons in your dreams.
00:32:26I love you.
00:32:26I've been sleeping, like demons in your dreams.
00:32:27For the first time in her career, Rhea Ripley, in a matchup here in Italy, a country that
00:32:34she holds near and dear to her heart.
00:32:37Her grandpa and her grandma, who she was extremely close with, grew up here in Northern Italy.
00:32:43and then they would move to australia of course where rhea ripley was born and would go on to
00:32:50start her wrestling career rhea said very emotional for her to be a part of this here tonight
00:32:56well it served rhea well to keep those emotions in check tonight unless she chooses to channel
00:33:02them toward her opponent jay cargill yes we've seen history has proven rhea ripley is almost
00:33:08impossible to bet against when the stakes are as high as they are tonight but jay cargill is waiting
00:33:15she is waiting for the moment to strike to upset rhea ripley and to turn the women's division upside
00:33:22down once again rhea ripley of course peep jade at wrestlemania with her first title defense since
00:33:29that night in las vegas cargill is on our wall we mentioned the win over ripley in the tag match
00:33:35last
00:33:35week friday night on smackdown jade knocked off alexa bliss and then delivered a jaded to bliss to a
00:33:44steel chair that was a statement making absolutely sure that jade has all of rhea's attention
00:34:09let's check in with alicia taylor
00:34:12the following contest is scheduled for one fall
00:34:17and it is for the wwe women's championship
00:34:25introducing first the challenger
00:34:29from vero beach florida
00:34:34jade
00:34:42and her opponent
00:34:45from adelaide
00:34:48south australia
00:34:51she is the wwe
00:34:55women's champion
00:34:57rhea
00:35:00rhea
00:35:02rhea
00:35:05so let's talk about strategy in this matchup first for a very confident champion in rhea ripley
00:35:12i think rhea ripley needs to be very careful that she doesn't overlook or underestimate jade cargill
00:35:19yes rhea was successful on the grandest stage of them all at wrestlemania but jade cargill has
00:35:24obsessed about that night since it took place jade was to an extent humiliated on the grandest stage
00:35:31of them all this is jade's opportunity to right the perceived wrong tonight in italy
00:35:36cory for jade cargill how do you quote right that perceived wrong tonight deliver the heavy
00:35:41artillery early and often this could come down to the riptide versus jaded which of these two women
00:35:48can land their finishing maneuver first
00:35:58and a collar and elbow tie up to start things off in this matchup for the wwe women's championship
00:36:05remember this is still somewhat unfamiliar territory for rhea ripley not having the power advantage rhea has always had the
00:36:13strength advantage usually the size advantage over most of our opponents that's not the case with the bigger stronger
00:36:18jade cargill
00:36:24well let's go mommy chance for the over 12 000 here tonight in italy
00:36:28is taken down by rhea ripley and they're still in the collar and elbow tie up you know ripley did
00:36:34find a way
00:36:35to offset the power advantage of jade at wrestlemania
00:36:40rhea
00:36:41rhea does have an abundance of tools at her disposal rhea when need be can take a high risk she
00:36:47can push the pace of a matchup that may give her the edge she needs to get past cargill tonight
00:36:51and there they get the power of cargill as she slams ripley in the middle of the ring
00:36:57and now a bit of a and this is i can't agree with this i understand this is jade's prerogative
00:37:03this is who jade cargill is but she's dealing with rhea
00:37:07bloody ripley and she doesn't get too comfortable and she just paid for it
00:37:11yeah she just paid for it ripley begging cargill back to her feet since jade outside the ring rhea looks
00:37:15to pick up the pace
00:37:16there's that drop kick
00:37:22Rhea feeding off this crowd
00:37:25Went for the cannonball
00:37:26Jade able to intercept and then deliver a right hand
00:37:29Jade just stuffed out
00:37:31A suicide dive attempt by Rhea Ripley
00:37:34That was incredible
00:37:35And now with Ripley up on her shoulders
00:37:38And driving her into the apron
00:37:41Man, it is so hard to combat power
00:37:49Oh my goodness, right on the jaw
00:37:52That certainly rock Rhea's world
00:37:57Cargill's in love with herself, isn't she?
00:38:00That certainly seems to be the case
00:38:01It's worked out fairly well for her so far
00:38:05Into the ring to break the count
00:38:06Cargill understands that count outs and disqualifications don't help her
00:38:11She must pin her, submit the champion
00:38:12And that's something of a skill in and of itself
00:38:14The ability to completely disregard and tune out the WWE universe
00:38:18That's what Cargill
00:38:19If anything, Cargill panders to their disdain
00:38:22To their boos
00:38:23And feeds off of them
00:38:25Almost in reverse of how Rhea does
00:38:27Fall away slam
00:38:28To the champion
00:38:30And Cargill now controlling Ripley
00:38:36I like the pace of Cargill tonight
00:38:38Taking her time
00:38:40Much more deliberate
00:38:41And we're used to seeing
00:38:42Smart strategy
00:38:43Because again
00:38:44As much as Jay Cargill may not personally like Rhea Ripley
00:38:47Jay does have a modicum of respect
00:38:50For the abilities of Rhea Ripley inside the ring
00:38:52You have no choice
00:38:53When you're defeated on the grandest stage of the mall by someone
00:38:56We have the fans here in Italy
00:38:59Trying to whip Rhea Ripley out
00:39:05And Jay talking trash
00:39:12And again to your point earlier
00:39:13It's not often that we see Ripley
00:39:15Woman handled like she's been here tonight
00:39:18It is an unfamiliar sight
00:39:20And now Cargill just stomping away
00:39:22Using the long legs to her advantage
00:39:29Complete disdain for the official
00:39:36Notice how deliberate in all of her movements
00:39:39Jay Cargill has been to this juncture
00:39:41No wasted motion
00:39:43No wasted effort
00:39:44Everything counts
00:39:45And Ripley into the corner with authority
00:39:47What a whip by Jay
00:39:50And again just showing off here tonight
00:39:53Why not
00:39:53She's dominating the champion
00:40:01Ripley in serious pain here
00:40:04You saw her
00:40:04Favoring her lower back
00:40:06It would serve Jay Cargill well
00:40:11To continue focusing on that area
00:40:13Cover
00:40:13Snap suplex into the cover
00:40:15And a kick out by Rhea
00:40:21I like this pace of Cargill tonight
00:40:23It's very smart
00:40:24It's very deliberate
00:40:25It's very methodical
00:40:26But it leaves minimal room
00:40:28For Jay Cargill to make mistakes
00:40:32Sometimes when you get in the ring
00:40:34You get rocking and rolling
00:40:34You get ahead of yourself
00:40:35You make unforced errors
00:40:37And that's what Cargill had to avoid tonight
00:40:39And she's done so thus far
00:40:41And Ripley showing some fight
00:40:42Big uppercut by Cargill
00:40:45Drops the champion again
00:40:47And it's been a one-sided affair here
00:40:49In the early going
00:40:49I'm honestly a little surprised
00:40:51At how one-sided it's been
00:40:52Rhea Ripley has been essentially
00:40:53Ineffective to this point
00:40:57And Rhea with a kick
00:40:59And now a chop
00:41:00Trying to fight back into this
00:41:02Another chop by the champion
00:41:03Driving Cargill back toward the corner
00:41:07Cargill reversal it again
00:41:08Sends Ripley back first
00:41:10Into the turnbuckle
00:41:14Jay just continuing to impose her will
00:41:18Every rally that Ripley has had
00:41:20Corey has been snuffed out
00:41:22By Cargill
00:41:24Decisively as well
00:41:25Now another suplex delivered
00:41:27Floats into the cover
00:41:29And an air fall again
00:41:31And a kick out at two by the champion
00:41:32And again perhaps an example
00:41:35Of where Jay Cargill is making mistakes
00:41:37She didn't hook the leg
00:41:38It was a bit of an arrogant cover
00:41:39You're not going to beat
00:41:41Rhea Ripley like that
00:41:42I don't care who you are
00:41:46This is for the WWE
00:41:49Women's Championship
00:41:51Currently held by Rhea Ripley
00:41:56First defending
00:41:57Friday night smackdown
00:41:59As Ripley delivers
00:42:00Body shots
00:42:01And then just
00:42:02Ripped to the floor
00:42:03By Cargill
00:42:09And this has been
00:42:10Alarmingly
00:42:11One-sided so far
00:42:13It's been pure
00:42:14Dominance
00:42:20And again Rhea
00:42:21Showing signs of fight
00:42:23Oh
00:42:23Cargill with a right hand
00:42:24Stuns Ripley
00:42:25And again the power
00:42:26Of Jay
00:42:27And that can be super
00:42:28Fresh
00:42:28Nobody holds
00:42:29If you're Rhea Ripley
00:42:30You're firing off
00:42:31The best shots
00:42:32You can muster
00:42:33And they're having
00:42:33Little to no effect
00:42:34On the challenger
00:42:35Jade Cargill
00:42:36Cargill missed
00:42:37With the attempted elbow
00:42:38And that may be a mistake
00:42:39Because Cargill went
00:42:40Shoulder first to the post
00:42:41And now the champion
00:42:42Has an opportunity
00:42:43To rally
00:42:50Ripley with a couple
00:42:51Of close clotheslines
00:42:55Kick caught
00:42:56Jade right under
00:42:57The chin
00:42:58Face first
00:43:00Goes Cargill
00:43:02Missile drop
00:43:03Kick to the
00:43:04Back of the neck
00:43:09And Rhea
00:43:10Beginning to rally
00:43:14Rhea Ripley
00:43:15Waves
00:43:16Locked
00:43:17Into the
00:43:17German
00:43:17Suplex
00:43:22Ripley
00:43:22Giving chase
00:43:23To the outside
00:43:25And now Rhea
00:43:26Connects
00:43:27And Ripley
00:43:28Starting to feel it
00:43:37And Rhea now
00:43:38Climbing up top
00:43:43Missile drop
00:43:44Kick
00:43:46Pulls to the
00:43:47Cover
00:43:47Hooks the
00:43:48Upside leg
00:43:49Near fall
00:43:53It seems to me
00:43:54As though
00:43:55Rhea
00:43:56Finally realizing
00:43:57She's got to
00:43:58Show the
00:43:58Challenger
00:43:59Something new
00:43:59Taking it
00:44:00High risk
00:44:01Picture perfect
00:44:02Missile drop
00:44:02Kick from the
00:44:03Top turnbuckle
00:44:04But not enough
00:44:05To put away
00:44:06The storm
00:44:08Now it's Rhea
00:44:10Who cannot
00:44:10Become frustrated
00:44:12You saw her
00:44:13Once again
00:44:13Favoring the
00:44:14Lower back
00:44:21Does Rhea
00:44:21Have enough
00:44:22Left in the
00:44:22Tank to
00:44:23Muscle up
00:44:23Cargill
00:44:24Yes she
00:44:25Does
00:44:26Oh no
00:44:27She doesn't
00:44:27Jade
00:44:28Cargill
00:44:28Turns into
00:44:29A back
00:44:29Body drop
00:44:30And again
00:44:31Psychologically
00:44:32That can
00:44:32Destroy a
00:44:33Compatible
00:44:33Ripley
00:44:34Kick both
00:44:35Women down
00:44:36Rhea
00:44:36Was going
00:44:37For Razor's
00:44:38Edge
00:44:38And Cargill
00:44:39Was able
00:44:39To count
00:44:40But then
00:44:40A well placed
00:44:41Kick by
00:44:42Ripley
00:44:42And this
00:44:42Right here
00:44:43Could be
00:44:43A turning
00:44:44Point
00:44:44In this
00:44:44Match
00:45:00This is
00:45:01In fact
00:45:02Awesome
00:45:07Champion
00:45:07And challenger
00:45:08Face to
00:45:09Face
00:45:18Here we
00:45:19Go
00:45:20Both
00:45:20Women
00:45:20On
00:45:21Load
00:45:21In the
00:45:21Heavy
00:45:22Artillery
00:45:22In the
00:45:23Center
00:45:23Of the
00:45:23Ring
00:45:33And Rhea
00:45:34Ripley
00:45:34Looking again
00:45:34In the
00:45:35Upper
00:45:35Hand
00:45:35Jade
00:45:36Went
00:45:36For that
00:45:36Pup
00:45:37And Jade
00:45:38Now
00:45:38Looking for
00:45:38Jaded
00:45:39Rhea
00:45:40Ripley
00:45:40Able
00:45:40To duck
00:45:41Underneath
00:45:41Went
00:45:41For a
00:45:42Dropkick
00:45:42Sidestep
00:45:42By Jade
00:45:43Jade
00:45:44Went
00:45:44For the
00:45:44Running
00:45:44Knee
00:45:45Head
00:45:45Bunt
00:45:45By
00:45:45Ripley
00:45:46I think
00:45:47Jade
00:45:47Might be
00:45:48Out on
00:45:48Her feet
00:45:48And Rhea
00:45:49Now
00:45:49In position
00:45:51For riptide
00:45:51But Jade
00:45:52Fights out
00:45:52Of it
00:45:53Credit to
00:45:53Cargill
00:45:54Who clearly
00:45:55Did her
00:45:55Homework
00:45:56She's had
00:45:56Multiple
00:45:56Counters
00:45:57Ready
00:45:57For just
00:45:58About
00:45:58Everything
00:45:59Rhea
00:45:59Has
00:46:00Attempted
00:46:00Tonight
00:46:00Ripley
00:46:01Delivered
00:46:02A kick
00:46:02Again
00:46:02And now
00:46:03Has Cargill
00:46:03Where she
00:46:04Wants
00:46:04So
00:46:04This
00:46:09Razor's Edge
00:46:09Delivered
00:46:10That time
00:46:10To Cargill
00:46:11And a
00:46:12Shining Wizard
00:46:13By Ripley
00:46:14Cover now
00:46:15Hook to the leg
00:46:16Kick out
00:46:16By Cargill
00:46:17At two
00:46:17And you gotta
00:46:18Wonder if the
00:46:19Bad back
00:46:19Didn't allow
00:46:20Ripley
00:46:20To hit
00:46:20All of that
00:46:21Razor's Edge
00:46:22Certainly not
00:46:23With maximum
00:46:23Impact
00:46:24Which may be
00:46:26The only reason
00:46:26Cargill is still
00:46:28In this matchup
00:46:30Rhea Ripley

00:56:02it is a wrestlemania rematch and maybe the biggest rematch of all time
00:56:19at the showcase of the immortals
00:56:24the heavens opened
00:56:28the earth shook
00:56:33and the impossible
00:56:35became prophecy
00:56:42as the ruler ascended the mountaintop
00:56:46an age of conquest
00:56:50the beast faded into legend
00:57:15with the beast cast down
00:57:17the bringer of war summoned all who dare challenge his throne
00:57:22the ova family
00:57:24open challenge

00:58:28ce
00:58:57"'Leon
00:59:14we are witnessing a very controversial match tonight because one man claims he's retired
00:59:23and that man is the scariest retired man on the planet today brock lesnar perhaps because we're not
00:59:29talking about any mere mortal man michael cole we are talking about the beast incarnate the most
00:59:36decorated athlete in combat sports history and tonight it could be argued that it's do or die
00:59:45for brock lesnar for the first time in 24 years since 2002 brock lesnar will compete in a match
00:59:57in europe brock lesnar admitted cory that he was humbled that he suffered an ass whipping
01:00:04at the hands of obafemi back at wrestlemania and brock also promised to rule over the ruler tonight
