00:05:02His journey through the Indies would continue mid-American wrestling.
00:05:06Then off to St. Paul Championship Wrestling.
00:05:08He would find his feet in Ring of Honor two decades ago.
00:05:12Then his dream would come true 20 years ago.
00:05:15His WWE debut in the reborn ECW.
00:05:17Then he would win his first world championship in 2008.
00:05:22The famous controversial pipe bomb in 2011.
00:05:262014.
00:05:26He would leave WWE for nearly a decade before the improbable return in 2023.
00:05:32And now, Reigns as the world champion to face Roman Reigns tomorrow night.
00:06:04Reigns as to
00:06:08Cheer it in, sit back on a date
00:06:11Say once, say it twice, then I'll give it to you all night
00:06:15I'm your bad, bad, your bad advice
00:06:20I mean
00:06:21Say my name like it's a secret, say it low and say it out
00:06:26Try to frame me as the problem like I don't enjoy it now
00:06:29You want sweet, you want careful, you want safe behind the eyes
00:06:33But I flirt with every danger and I'm gonna apologize
00:06:39I mean
00:06:45All your eyes are on me lately
00:06:48Do I make you uncomfortable?
00:06:52I'm the fault that you shouldn't vanish
00:06:56I'm listening to you, but you can't confess
00:06:59Trouble, trouble, that's me
00:07:03Cheer it in, sit back on a date
00:07:06Say once, say it twice, then I'll give it to you all night
00:07:10I'm your bad, bad, your bad advice
00:07:14I feel like bad decisions, but you still wanna fight
00:07:21I was never felt to bend
00:07:23If you push, I push it further
00:07:25Baby, watch who you offend, yeah, you'll be looking in the mirror
00:07:28I was made in your mouth, not choke on every word
00:07:32I was never what you wanted, I'm just what you deserve
00:08:04All your eyes are on me lately
00:08:06Trouble, trouble, trouble, that's me
00:08:10Cheer it in, sit back on a date
00:08:13Say once, say it twice, then I'll give it to you all night
00:08:17I'm your bad, bad, your bad advice
00:08:23Cheer it in, sit back on a date
00:09:50The very first time ever, a match that has become so personal.
00:09:54Just look at the face of Lynn Morgan.
00:09:57The bruises still on display after an attack a couple of weeks ago.
00:10:01Morgan winning the Royal Rumble this year after being the bridesmaid a couple of times.
00:10:07Earned this opportunity, chose Stephanie Becker, and here we are tonight.
00:10:36She won the title in September at Wrestlepalooza tonight.
00:10:42She defends.
00:10:44And the Women's World Championship match is brought to you by Fortnite.
00:10:48Lynn Morgan and Stone Cold Steve Austin just crouched the biggest rivalry in Battle Royal.
00:10:54Team Foundation versus Team Ice King.
00:10:57Time to settle the score.
00:10:58Available now in the Fortnite Item Shop.
00:11:08With me at Wrestlemania without the great Alicia Taylor.
00:11:14The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:11:20And it is for the Women's World Championship.
00:11:30Introducing first, the challenger from Elmwood Park, New Jersey, Liv Morgan.
00:11:46And her opponent from San Fernando, Chile.
00:11:53Today, she is the Women's World Champion, Stephanie Becker.
00:12:06You are looking at two of the biggest stars in our industry today.
00:12:12Stephanie Becker, Liv Morgan could not have had more opposite upbringings.
00:12:17A more opposite pathway to get to this moment in their careers.
00:12:23The official Eddie Arengo will be the referee for this match tonight.
00:12:28And I'll tell you right now, what Stephanie Becker has done since arriving in WWE has been absolutely incredible.
00:12:36The past two years has just been a long victory streak.
00:12:40She's been amazing.
00:12:41How has she done it?
00:12:42By being calm and composed.
00:12:44The master stroke of Liv Morgan leading into this match as she's turned highly emotional.
00:12:50And can Stephanie Becker compete with that considering Liv Morgan is a woman who thrives in chaos?
00:12:57And as you can see, the way this matchup starts.
00:12:59No love lost between these two women, Morgan and Becker.
00:13:02And Stephanie going to chase Liv outside the ring.
00:13:04Now, here's my question for you.
00:13:06Stephanie's been focused on this match for weeks and weeks and weeks.
00:13:09Liv Morgan has to an extent, but she's off film and music videos cutting that brand new song, Trouble.
00:13:15You think her head's here or elsewhere?
00:13:17No, absolutely not.
00:13:18I think her head is right where it should be.
00:13:20She had one of the greatest 2024s of anybody.
00:13:242025 was wiped out by injury.
00:13:26Liv Morgan came back for one reason, to get back to the very top.
00:13:30Did the right thing in January.
00:13:32Won the Royal Rumble.
00:13:33Now is the time to finish the job.
00:13:35And Morgan, a two-time world champion.
00:13:37Hasn't had great success at Mania over her career, but hopes to change that tonight.
00:13:42Off the ropes, turns it into a powerbomb.
00:13:44Stacks up the champ now.
00:13:46And Stephanie kicks out at two.
00:13:48Yeah, Liv Morgan's a woman who's been looked down upon by some quarters through her path of her career.
00:13:54Never quite considered at that top echelon.
00:13:56That changed in a big way over the past couple of years.
00:13:59And even to this day, the care isn't quite giving her the credit I believe Liv Morgan deserves.
00:14:04Well, Stephanie, extremely confident.
00:14:06And there's a reason.
00:14:06She's not been pinned or submitted since coming to the main roster.
00:14:10Liv Morgan, nice suplex.
00:14:12And again, her boyfriend, Dirty Dominic Mysterio.
00:14:15And they both use this move.
00:14:16The three amigos made famous by the late, great Eddie Guerrero.
00:14:21He's so influential to the career of Dominic Mysterio.
00:14:25Liv Morgan now finds herself in control.
00:14:29What does Liv have to do to win the title tonight?
00:14:31That's to keep the pressure on Stephanie Vaquer at all times.
00:14:35We know full well that Stephanie Vaquer, with a win in her sails, only ever leads to victory.
00:14:40And Liv Morgan has to be acutely aware of getting the upper hand, which she has, finishing the job.
00:14:45Liv now, from high above the ring, top rope, went for the front splash.
00:14:49And there you go.
00:14:50It was that beat on top of the turnbuckle that Liv Morgan doesn't normally pull off.
00:14:56That one moment was all the care needed.
00:14:58And here's your favorite move, Michael Cole.
00:15:02It's Booker's, by the way.
00:15:04And yours, don't lie.
00:15:05Don't get shy now.
00:15:06And now Stephanie, going to turn into the devil's kiss on Liv Morgan.
00:15:13And you would be wise to stay quiet.
00:15:21It doesn't seem like the pressure of the first WrestleMania has been getting to Stephanie at all here.
00:15:27Oh, knees right to the jaw.
00:15:29That was beautiful.
00:15:30Cover by Stephanie Vaquer.
00:15:32And a kick out by Morgan.
00:15:36And you're right.
00:15:37The pressure just doesn't get to Vaquer.
00:15:39That has been true of day one since she arrived in NXT a couple of years ago on a crash
00:15:45course all the way to the NXT Championship.
00:15:47And that momentum never slowed.
00:15:50And here we go, Cole.
00:15:51Oh, nice reversal there from Liv Morgan.
00:15:55And Morgan now with a backstab.
00:16:00Look, I might have been looking for that SVP at one point there, but quickly turning around, acutely aware of
00:16:07the danger of that particular move was Morgan.
00:16:10And again, Liv Morgan.
00:16:11Oh, hold on.
00:16:12It's going on here, Cole.
00:16:15Hold on.
00:16:16Look like she was going to go for devil's kiss.
00:16:18It almost got caught.
00:16:20And that's the problem.
00:16:21You get a little too cocky in there with a world champ like Stephanie Vaquer.
00:16:24You're going to get into problems.
00:16:26Now Stephanie with...
00:16:29Isn't it enough to retain the championship?
00:16:32Knee to the small, the back, forcing Morgan to kick out.
00:16:35Just about kicking out there and living incredibly dangerously here as Liv Morgan and things are going completely off the
00:16:44rails.
00:16:45Double's double underhug with the knee blasted into the back of the neck.
00:16:49That has done so much damage to all opponents throughout the career of Vaquer.
00:16:54And somehow Liv Morgan is alive in this one, but only just.
00:17:01Vaquer is also dragging at this point too.
00:17:03If she can pick up the pace here, but no.
00:17:07Codebreaker by Morgan.
00:17:09Dropping Vaquer back toward the rope.
00:17:11Stephanie, though, able to roll through, perhaps playing possum.
00:17:13I don't think we've got all the...
00:17:14Oblivion!
00:17:15Stephanie just hit Liv with her own move.
00:17:18Oblivion!
00:17:18Into the cover!
00:17:19Hooks both legs!
00:17:20And Morgan's got to kick out!
00:17:22Well, what a major statement it would have been for Vaquer putting Liv Morgan away with her own specialized move.
00:17:30The Oblivion.
00:17:31But it was not to be.
00:17:33And now it's just a crisis starting to stir up in the mind of Laprimero.
00:17:37Exactly.
00:17:38But mentally, this could screw up Morgan as well.
00:17:41Getting hit by her own move, the Oblivion.
00:17:43Well, Matt, Morgan's barely got anything in in the past couple of minutes in here.
00:17:46And she's been hit with some major, major offense from Laprimero, who looks like...
00:17:50Oh, wait up.
00:17:51Up to the top rope.
00:17:52That's Roxanne Perez.
00:17:53Well, not a moment too soon.
00:17:54Stephanie Becker.
00:17:55First, perhaps, with a Becker Inferno, is what she calls it.
00:17:59And now Raquel Rodriguez getting involved.
00:18:01The numbers game from the Judgment Day.
00:18:04Morgan!
00:18:05Oblivion!
00:18:07Cover by Liv!
00:18:10Stephanie kicks out!
00:18:12Well, that was the game plan.
00:18:14If things go wrong, hit the ring.
00:18:16Help me out.
00:18:17Roxanne with the distract.
00:18:18The damage caused by the massive Raquel.
00:18:21But somehow, the care still lives on here.
00:18:25And this is where it looked like it had gone south for Laprimero.
00:18:29Draped over the top rope.
00:18:30Followed up quickly with Oblivion.
00:18:32Referee absolutely clueless to what just went down.
00:18:36And that was a late kickout, but a kickout all the same.
00:18:39And now if you're lit, what do you do?
00:18:40You just hit your finishing move.
00:18:42Couldn't put Stephanie Becker away.
00:18:44Well, it's clearly going for a second by the charity.
00:18:46The official's got to do something about this.
00:18:48Judgment Day is just swarming all over the place out here.
00:18:51Well, that's always been the playbook of the Judgment Day.
00:18:54Lap Romero is clearly ready for it.
00:18:57Oh, no.
00:18:58What now?
00:18:59Looked like she was setting up for Oblivion.
00:19:01Ended up going through the ropes and taking out her Judgment Day colleagues.
00:19:04Almost a sixth sense there.
00:19:07From Stephanie Becker.
00:19:08Wait up!
00:19:09Big cross body from the top rope.
00:19:12Morgan, though, was able to escape.
00:19:15Well, took out the two miscreants on the outside.
00:19:18Oh, no.
00:19:18And Morgan driving Becker into the steps.
00:19:21No distraction.
00:19:22Sometimes that is all it needs.
00:19:27Look at the codebreaker from the second rope.
00:19:30Stephanie in trouble.
00:19:32Morgan now Oblivion for a second time.
00:19:35Cover.
00:19:36Lem Morgan wins the championship.
00:19:40Here is your winner.
00:19:43And new women's world champion, Lynn Morgan.
00:19:54And the man who faces the demon tomorrow, Dirty Dominic Mysterio, comes out to celebrate.
00:20:02And the greatest love story of our time continues.
00:20:07What a celebration it is going to be tonight in Sin City for these two.
00:20:12Don't party too hard, Dom.
00:20:14Don't burn off all your energy this evening.
00:20:16You'll need some of that tomorrow when you take on the demon Finn Balor.
00:20:19But for now, it is party time in the clubhouse.
00:20:23But what a champion Stephanie Becker was.
00:20:26And this ended up being a three-on-one match, Wade.
00:20:29I mean, very little chance at this point.
00:20:31It looked like, miraculously, Stephanie Becker was going to pull it out again.
00:20:36So many distractions on the outside.
00:20:39And this was one too many for the now former champ after her first reign comes to a close.
00:20:46What oblivion right here.
00:20:48And Liv Morgan is back where she belongs.
00:20:51Right at the very business end of the women's division, your new world champ.
00:20:57Liv Morgan as world champion is going to cause a lot of trouble on Monday Night Raw.
00:21:05The Judgment Day in full force.
00:21:09Wade's dancing to the theme song.
00:21:11Dominic Sol smiles.
00:21:13Hey, Dom, don't forget.
00:21:14You got the demon tomorrow.
00:21:17I told you.
00:21:19I'm the greatest women's world champion of all time.
00:21:32Well, hey, bring them all the action.
00:21:34With all new LJN WWE Superstars vintage style action figures.
00:21:39Wave 2 features some of the all-time greats of WWE, including King Kong Bundy, along with the Hall of
00:21:45Famers, the Ultimate Warrior, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and Jesse the Body Matura.
00:21:50Look for these figures beginning April 26th at Target in the United States.
00:21:58Hey, Wade, now we're talking.
00:22:01WrestleMania is brought to you by Mad Dogs, by MD 2020.
00:22:05Flavor that hits hard at 15% alcohol.
00:22:08Find it in an alcohol retailer near you.
00:22:11Yes, please.
00:22:15So, again, ladies and gentlemen, despite what you think about Liv Morgan, despite what you think about the Judgment Day,
00:22:21congratulations.
00:22:22She earned this by winning the Royal Rumble at nearly 45 minutes this past couple months ago.
00:22:28Yeah, it tells you exactly how vital it is to earn opportunities for yourself here in WWE.
00:22:34Liv did that, and she converted tonight.
00:22:36New world champ.
00:22:37Congrats, Liv, and the Judgment Day.
00:22:38And you can't take anything away from Stephanie Bacare.
00:22:41What an unbelievable champion she was.
00:22:44And it's always hard when you come into WWE, it's not your native language here, it's not your native culture.
00:22:50She has been absolutely stunningly good for two straight years.
00:22:53She will be back to the top eventually.
00:22:56Congrats to you on that, Ray.
00:22:57And still to come tonight, and just moments away from this, it is our main event, Cody Rhodes, the American
00:23:03Nightmare,
00:23:03in a match that has been building for 20 years to defend the undisputed WWE Championship against the Viper Randy
00:23:11Orton.
00:23:11What role, if any, will Pat McAfee play in all this?
00:23:15The Viper Rhodes for the undisputed WWE title.
00:23:20We are moments away from WrestleMania Saturday's main event here in Las Vegas.
00:23:41Night one WrestleMania, what an amazing evening it's been so far.
00:23:51As your host, I have the luxury of announcing tonight's attendance.
00:24:03There has been a lot of speculation on what it might be.
00:24:09Vegas is the perfect city, and I would have bet the over.
00:24:16I look around, and there are people everywhere.
00:24:23I am proud to announce tonight's official attendance, 50,816 people.

00:28:03We're here
00:28:03We're here
00:28:03We're here
00:28:04We're here
00:28:08We're here
00:28:09We're here
00:28:11We're here
00:28:15Because the ESP is having a baby.
00:28:29Thank you so much for allowing our family to share this moment with yours.
00:28:43I stand corrected.
00:28:45We need to include the youngest WWE superstar in history.
00:28:51For 50,817 in attendance tonight.
00:28:59And you can feel the energy here in Las Vegas.
00:29:05All the noise.
00:29:07Everybody's focused on this box right here.
00:29:10Because next up is your main event.
00:29:21Congratulations to Bianca Belair.
00:29:24Of course, her husband, Montez Ford.
00:29:29Wow, what a shocker at WrestleMania.
00:29:33I'll tell you right now.
00:29:33That kid is going to be an athlete.
00:29:36Great genetics.
00:29:37Minutes away from Cody and Randy.
00:29:40All right, WrestleMania fans, we got something exciting for you.
00:29:43A special look at one of the most anticipated movies of the year.
00:29:46Street Fighter.
00:29:48Coming to theaters this October.
00:29:50Check it out.
00:29:52Sergeant Yari Arista from the USO and the Air Force here in Nevada.
00:29:56Wheatley raises a glass to Saf, Stark, and Arista.
00:29:59And all retired and active members of the US military.
00:30:02Thank you for your service.
00:30:05Buckle up.
00:30:06It's time for our main event.
00:30:19You know, I always watch the relationship between Triple H and Randy.
00:30:25Triple H was Randy's mentor.
00:30:27They became opponents.
00:30:29The relationship wasn't as cozy.
00:30:33And I always thought, I don't know if that's how I want to be one day.
00:30:38With Randy Orton, my mentor.
00:30:41And in the case of Randy, I don't think it will be that way.
00:30:46I don't think it will be that way.
00:30:53I'm not your son and I'm not your brother, but I have always been proud to be your boy.
00:31:01And after the main event of WrestleMania, I want you to know, I will always love you.
00:31:30It's not personal between Cody and I.
00:31:34I want my legacy to be how much gold I have put around my waist.
00:31:41Here I find myself in a pool of blood.
00:31:46Sitting in a home I built below the God above.
00:31:51I don't let that monster in.
00:31:53I just don't understand why you're fighting so hard to go back to being a version of yourself you've already
00:31:57beaten.
00:31:59The demon said.
00:32:01I don't know if it's the voices in your head.
00:32:03I don't know if it's somebody in your ear.
00:32:06Now break the...
00:32:12I don't even think I know this version of you, man.
00:32:17Cody said that I could listen to the voices.
00:32:20He said I could be the Viper.
00:32:22What you have broken inside of me, there's no putting you back to bed.
00:32:28Randy Orton, I am hearing those voices inside my head, finally.
00:32:36There is one person outside of my head whose voice I am listening to.
00:32:43Pat McAfee?
00:32:45The business that you're leading is terrible.
00:32:50Randy is going to save this business.
00:32:56This is what this business is supposed to look like.
00:33:10Pat, you and everyone who represents you can kiss my ass.
00:33:18This is what this business is supposed to look like.
00:33:20Tony walks right up onto the stage to ruin our save.
00:33:26Guess what?
00:33:27Cody Warris.
00:33:29At WrestleMania in Las Vegas?
00:33:31Randy saves the business.
00:33:33This is the house of world in vain.
00:33:38This is where I will begin again.
00:33:48Hey, let's go.
00:33:55All right.
00:34:11Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Pat McAfee.
00:34:19This hypocrite.
00:34:21I thought you two were boys.
00:34:23Yeah, you know what?
00:34:24I've given a lot of thought to this over the past few weeks.
00:34:28That man right there who now is telling the WWE fans what he thinks about him.
00:34:34This is the man who embraced these fans over the past number of years.
00:34:39This is the man who stood next to me when Cody Rhodes finished his story.
00:34:47The night that Cody Rhodes won the championship at WrestleMania.
00:34:51He had tears in his eyes.
00:34:53He was as emotional as I was for Cody Rhodes and what Rhodes had finally accomplished.
00:34:59And now, a few short years later, this guy walks into our business.
00:35:05He disrespects everyone.
00:35:09Struts out here with his massive ego and claims that he's going to change the way things are done around
00:35:15here.
00:35:16I don't know what's happened to this guy.
00:35:18I don't know what's got in his head.
00:35:20Except that this ass has an ego that is blown completely out of control.
00:35:26Well, I'm not going to try and add reason to the rhyme of some of the things Pat McAfee has
00:35:32said in recent weeks.
00:35:34Like you, there's very little of it that I agree with.
00:35:37But what it has done is created buzz.
00:35:40It's created eyeballs on this matchup now that perhaps might not have been there otherwise.
00:35:46Well, I agree.
00:35:47There's no doubt about it.
00:35:48I said it on ESPN this week.
00:35:51Pat McAfee being a part of this product will always generate buzz.
00:35:56People are talking about it.
00:35:57He talks about it on his show on ESPN.
00:35:59But it's the way he's going about this.
00:36:02And this attitude he has.
00:36:05This larger than thou feeling.
00:36:10Well, he's somebody.
00:36:11And I'll use a Michael Cole slash John Cena word from earlier in the night.
00:36:15He is polarizing here in WWE.
00:36:18Yeah, I got a lot of other words I can say about him too.
00:36:20We'll get taken off air if you do.
00:36:22He has been loved.
00:36:23He has been hated.
00:36:24He's been everything in between.
00:36:25And right now, I think it's pretty much 100% on the hated end of that spectrum.
00:36:55I hear voices in my head.
00:36:58They tell to me.
00:37:00They understand.
00:37:01They talk to me.
00:37:12You've got your rules and your religion, all designed to keep you safe.
00:37:18But when the rules start getting broken, you stop questioning your fate.
00:37:24I have a voice that is my savior.
00:37:27It hates the love and loves the hate.
00:37:29I have a voice that has a moment and the power to be obeyed.
00:37:36I hear voices in my head.
00:37:40I see people in my head.
00:37:43I see people in my head.
00:37:45I hear voices in my head.
00:37:51They talk to me.
00:37:52They understand.
00:37:54They talk to me.
00:37:56They talk to me.
00:38:05They talk to me.
00:38:07They talk to me.

00:38:14They talk to me.
00:38:14They talk to me.
00:38:16I know who's underpincent.
00:38:19All the doctors are deceased.
00:38:22And the preachers are sinners.
00:38:25And police just take the grease.
00:38:28Oh, darkness, you are guilty
00:38:30Oh, the boxes are refined
00:38:33All your things we're lost
00:38:36Politicians are liars
00:38:40I see darkness falling
00:38:43I hear voices calling
00:38:46I hear darkness calling
00:38:49I see faith has fallen
00:38:52I'm losing my head
00:38:55Thank you for breathing
00:38:56I understand
00:38:57They talk to me
00:38:59They talk to me
00:39:03They tell me things that I'm in the truth
00:39:06They show me things out to me
00:39:09They talk to me
00:39:11They talk to me
00:39:32They talk to me
00:39:33I hear voices crying
00:39:35I see heroes dying
00:39:38I'm taking heart that's trying
00:39:41I feel tension like this
00:39:44I hear voices crying
00:39:47They talk to me
00:39:49They talk to me
00:39:51They talk to me
00:39:54They talk to me
00:39:56They tell me things that I'm in the truth
00:39:59They talk to me
00:40:06They talk to me
00:40:13They talk to me
00:40:21I have a voice that is my savior
00:40:25Hates to lie and rush to hate
00:40:28I have a voice that has the mind and the power to your faith
00:40:34I hear voices crying
00:40:38I see angels dying
00:40:41I taste blood that's dying
00:40:43I feel tension rising
00:40:46I have a voice that is my head
00:40:49They talk to me
00:40:51They talk to me
00:40:57They talk to me
00:40:59They talk to me
00:40:59Oh god

00:41:50I don't want it to lie
00:41:53I think that's what we are
00:41:55Listen to this place
00:41:57I don't understand why Orton needs McAfee in his ear
00:42:00I'll tell you why he needs McAfee in his ear
00:42:02There is nothing McAfee can offer Orton
00:42:05When it comes to this business
00:42:06No advice he can give him that will help Orton
00:42:08What McAfee has done
00:42:10Is divided the attention
00:42:12Of Orton's opponent Cody Rhodes
00:42:1490% of the interviews in the lead up to this
00:42:17That Cody has done
00:42:18Have been about McAfee
00:42:20That's a mistake
00:42:47I don't know
00:43:13Rosa Gunstar in the making, the sun of the green!
00:43:27Don't look at me!

00:45:29Don't look at me!
00:45:33Don't look at me!
00:45:39Don't look at me!
00:45:41Don't look at me!

00:47:13You're my love
00:47:14You're my love
00:47:17You're my love
00:47:19Cody's beautiful daughter
00:47:23Beautiful wife here as well
00:47:26And what has been a very trying couple of months
00:47:30To the undisputed WWE Champion
00:47:33The man who wants to be QB1
00:47:35Who wants to be the champion that people, that kids will look up to
00:47:39The man to carry this company into the next generation
00:47:42Doing everything right
00:47:44But even men like Cody Rhodes
00:47:46After what he's been put through the past three years
00:47:51Will reach a breaking point
00:47:53Will that breaking point be tonight?
00:48:07We've used the word polarizing a lot tonight, Wayne
00:48:10You can hear the reaction
00:48:12From the 50,000 plus here tonight in Las Vegas
00:48:16Well, in unison
00:48:17They're completely behind QB1 Cody Rhodes
00:48:21They know what he's done for this industry
00:48:23They know the words of Pat McAfee several weeks ago
00:48:27Criticizing what QB1 Cody Rhodes represents here
00:48:32They know that's nonsense
00:48:33He just didn't criticize Cody Rhodes
00:48:35He criticized our industry
00:48:37He criticized our business
00:48:39He criticized all the WWE fans
00:48:42That have made that what this is today
00:48:44All to stroke his own ego
00:48:46For some damn reason
00:48:47That none of us can understand
00:48:49Well, does Pat actually believe a word of what he said
00:48:52Or was he simply trying to get into the head
00:48:55Of Cody Rhodes for whatever reason
00:48:57Well, if that was the game plan
00:49:00It has worked
00:49:01Let's be clear
00:49:02The focus of Cody is split tonight
00:49:05It's main event time
00:49:06Here's Alicia Taylor
00:49:13The following contest

00:54:06Was in place
00:54:07For the challenger
00:54:08Here
00:54:08Has completely
00:54:10Gone out the window
00:54:10One other look
00:54:11Jelly Roll
00:54:12With an elbow
00:54:13Driving McAfee
00:54:14Through our announce table
00:54:16As Cody Rhodes
00:54:17Looks off with a smile
00:54:18And now
00:54:18As they get McAfee
00:54:19Out of here
00:54:20Wade
00:54:20Here's the situation
00:54:21Finally
00:54:22We're going to get
00:54:23We're going to get that
00:54:23One on one thing
00:54:24I need
00:54:24That's the match
00:54:26Between Orton
00:54:27And Rhodes
00:54:28Finally
00:54:29Equal playing field
00:54:31Nobody's screwing around
00:54:33Rhodes and Orton
00:54:34For the title
00:54:35Well the fix
00:54:36Was attempted
00:54:37By McAfee
00:54:37The jumpstart
00:54:38Before the bell
00:54:39Even rang
00:54:40And McAfee
00:54:41Now has a
00:54:42One way ticket
00:54:43To hospital
00:54:44So wait
00:54:44I do want to bring this up
00:54:45As they deal with McAfee
00:54:46At ringside
00:54:47Randy Orton
00:54:48Randy Orton
00:54:50There's been rumors
00:54:50Running rampant online
00:54:52All week long
00:54:54About Randy Orton
00:54:56Possibly being injured
00:54:57From what I understand here
00:54:59From what I understand
00:55:00In the locker room today
00:55:02There was a lot of talk
00:55:03About Randy Orton
00:55:04Have a back injury
00:55:05So will he be
00:55:06100% done
00:55:07You know what you call that
00:55:08You call that a red herring
00:55:10That's just another thing
00:55:12Being thrown at Cody Rhodes
00:55:13To think about
00:55:14I don't believe it
00:55:15For a second
00:55:16Randy's been through
00:55:17The wars in his career
00:55:18We know he's had
00:55:19Major back issues
00:55:20I don't see any sign
00:55:21Of that right now
00:55:22Randy's fine
00:55:23So does this
00:55:24McAfee situation
00:55:25Screw Randy up and off
00:55:26100%
00:55:27Clearly McAfee was here
00:55:29To be on the outside
00:55:30To be a major issue
00:55:31And a dawn in the size
00:55:32We take another look
00:55:34At what just went down
00:55:35Before our main event
00:55:37Even got started
00:55:38It was a crossroads
00:55:40Followed up
00:55:41By this elbow drop
00:55:42Through the table
00:55:43By Jelly Roll
00:55:44Who'd been attacked
00:55:44By Orton
00:55:45And McAfee
00:55:46In the build up
00:55:47To this
00:56:01McAfee is being
00:56:02Carted out
00:56:03Cody Rhodes
00:56:04Is ready for a fight
00:56:05The Viper Randy Orton
00:56:07Looks to regroup
00:56:08What is at stake here
00:56:10Is Rhodes
00:56:11Undisputed
00:56:12WWE Championship
00:56:14And Randy Orton's
00:56:15March toward history
00:56:16A win tonight
00:56:17Moves him ahead
00:56:18Of Triple H
00:56:19Into third place
00:56:20All time
00:56:21With 15 world titles
00:56:22Flair is 16
00:56:24Cena is 17
00:56:25Orton would love
00:56:26To break the records
00:56:27He moves a minute
00:56:28He moves a minute closer
00:56:29If he wins
00:56:29Tonight
00:56:33Randy
00:56:34Randy
00:56:35Randy
00:56:36Randy
00:56:37Randy
00:56:38Randy
00:56:39Randy
00:56:39Randy
00:56:40This is the third
00:56:52Main event
00:56:53Thought they were
00:56:53Going to be
00:56:54And at this point
00:56:55Of the match
00:56:56The opening bell
00:56:57No Pat McAfee
00:56:58Here
00:56:58To help Orton
00:56:59No Pat McAfee
00:57:00Here
00:57:01To distract
00:57:02Cody Rhodes
00:57:03We're getting
00:57:04Straight up
00:57:04Student
00:57:05Versus
00:57:05Teacher
00:57:06And I'll tell you
00:57:07Right now
00:57:08Cole
00:57:08It rarely
00:57:09Works out
00:57:09Well
00:57:10When the student
00:57:11Starts to outshine
00:57:13That teacher
00:57:13So now the lock up
00:57:15Collar and elbow
00:57:16Tie up
00:57:16Into a headlock
00:57:17By Randy Orton
00:57:18Orton and Rhodes
00:57:19Here tonight
00:57:20What does Orton
00:57:20Have to do
00:57:21To win the title
00:57:21Well Orton
00:57:22Needs to think fast
00:57:22Because whatever
00:57:23Game plan he had
00:57:24On the outside
00:57:25With Pat McAfee
00:57:26He needs to lean
00:57:26Into 25 years
00:57:27Of experience
00:57:29And come up
00:57:29With a new game plan
00:57:30Pretty damn quickly
00:57:32For Cody Rhodes
00:57:33A man who sent
00:57:33A mixed bag
00:57:34In Wrestlemania
00:57:35Over the years
00:57:36What does Cody
00:57:37Need to do
00:57:38To keep the title
00:57:38Well Cody
00:57:39Needs to stay calm
00:57:40He's been
00:57:40Pucked through
00:57:41The wood chipper
00:57:42By Randy Orton
00:57:43Emotionally
00:57:44And physically
00:57:44Over the past
00:57:45Several weeks
00:57:46Needs to block
00:57:47That out
00:57:47Realize this is
00:57:48Just another man
00:57:49You are competing
00:57:50Against
00:57:50Time and again
00:57:51Cody has beaten
00:57:53The best of this
00:57:54Industry over the
00:57:55Past three years
00:57:55Well he needs
00:57:56To do it again
00:57:57Tonight
00:57:57Well Randy Orton
00:57:58And Cody Rhodes
00:57:58The relationship
00:57:59Dates back 20 years
00:58:01The formation of
00:58:02Legacy
00:58:02With Ted DiBiase Jr
00:58:03Cody Rhodes
00:58:04And Randy Orton
00:58:06Orton really giving
00:58:07Throw to start here
00:58:08At this level
00:58:09And WWE
00:58:10And there's the
00:58:11Shoulder tackle
00:58:11By Orton
00:58:12Who seems to be
00:58:13Moving crisply
00:58:14So far
00:58:15Don't believe a word
00:58:16To the hype
00:58:17You see online
00:58:17Michael Cole
00:58:18Well it's not just
00:58:19Online
00:58:19There was a lot
00:58:20Of talk in the
00:58:21Locker room today
00:58:21About it
00:58:22Because people in
00:58:22The locker room
00:58:23Believe the nonsense
00:58:24They read online
00:58:25Well this is Randy Orton
00:58:26Who looks absolutely
00:58:27Back to a physical peak
00:58:29Cody bounced off
00:58:30The top turnbuckle
00:58:31By the Viper
00:58:33Randy Orton
00:58:34Who has nine wins
00:58:35At Wrestlemania
00:58:36He's tied fifth all time
00:58:37With a man we saw
00:58:38Earlier tonight
00:58:39Seth Rollins
00:58:41What is Randy's
00:58:42Primary motivation
00:58:44He wants to be
00:58:45The greatest of all time
00:58:46In terms of
00:58:47Total championships
00:58:48It's one step closer
00:58:49Tonight with a victory
00:58:50A number 15
00:58:52Rhodes looking to out
00:58:53Quick work
00:58:54There's the drop down
00:58:55With the right hand
00:58:56Randy misses
00:58:57Wilder
00:58:58Cody Rhodes
00:58:59On a power swing
00:59:00I'll tell you right now
00:59:01Speaking to Cody
00:59:02I was very close to him
00:59:03During my in-ring career
00:59:05And Cody would always
00:59:06Always talk on
00:59:07In rental cars
00:59:08At bars
00:59:09About how much
00:59:10He was inspired
00:59:11And impressed
00:59:11By Randy Orton
00:59:13How Randy Orton
00:59:13Was the perfect wrestler
00:59:15Nobody
00:59:15Has studied
00:59:16Randy Orton
00:59:18As deeply
00:59:18As Cody Rhodes has
00:59:19Rhodes now
00:59:20Off the second row
00:59:21Went for the Cody
00:59:22Cutter
00:59:22Got caught by
00:59:23Orton now
00:59:24And Randy
00:59:24Oh and we haven't
00:59:25Seen Randy do that
00:59:26In a while
00:59:26He delivered a backbreaker
00:59:28Randy came up
00:59:28A bit lame
00:59:30Oh
00:59:31You saw the way
00:59:32That Randy's back
00:59:33His body torqued
00:59:34As he delivered
00:59:35That to Cody Rhodes
00:59:36Now the moment of truth
00:59:37Remember the king
00:59:38Of the ring
00:59:38A couple years back
00:59:40Earlier on
00:59:41A few months back
00:59:41Randy Orton
00:59:42Now with a thumb
00:59:43To the eye
00:59:43Cody Rhodes
00:59:44Wouldn't pull the trigger
00:59:44On Randy
00:59:45It almost cost him
00:59:46Talk about a
00:59:47Back issue
00:59:48Of course
00:59:48Randy's career
00:59:49Almost ended
00:59:49Just a couple of years
00:59:51Ago by a major
00:59:52Back surgery
00:59:53And that was certainly
00:59:54Something tweaked
00:59:55In that lower back
00:59:56And we'll see if Randy
00:59:57Can shrug that off
00:59:58That sometimes happens
00:59:59Early in matches
01:00:00You're not quite warm
01:00:01Those were long entrances
01:00:02A lot of nonsense
01:00:03On the outside
01:00:04Before the match even starts
01:00:05Sometimes your body
01:00:06Cools down
01:00:07Randy may have just
01:00:08Tweaked a little something
01:00:09And once the body temperature
01:00:11Gets back up
01:00:12And he's running
01:00:15Delivering Randy
01:00:16With the slam
01:00:16Randy now
01:00:17Vildly standing
01:00:18The right hand
01:00:19And Randy's
01:00:19He's hurting
01:00:20And he's going to
01:00:20Roll out of the ring
01:00:21It was that back
01:00:22Once again
01:00:23And then I called it
01:00:25A red herring
01:00:25Earlier
01:00:26Maybe this is what
01:00:27The hype was
01:00:28In the locker room
01:00:30I told you
01:00:31The rumors
01:00:32Started to come out
01:00:33Earlier in the week
01:00:34And then there was
01:00:34A lot of talk
01:00:35About it today
01:00:35And Randy
01:00:37Is really hurting
01:00:37Imagine being Randy Orton
01:00:39You came down here
01:00:40Expecting to be
01:00:41100%
01:00:42You came down here
01:00:42Expecting to have
01:00:43Pat McAfee
01:00:44In your corner
01:00:45You're the challenger
01:00:46In the main event
01:00:47Of Wrestlemania
01:00:47And everything
01:00:48Just went to hell
01:00:49In a handbasket
01:00:54And Randy's even
01:00:55Just looking slow
01:00:55Forget the pain part
01:00:56Just moving slow
01:00:58Oh and now driving
01:00:59Randy
01:01:00Into the corner
01:01:01Back first
01:01:01Cody Rhodes
01:01:02Being extremely aggressive
01:01:03Here tonight
01:01:04Understanding
01:01:05Orton's got a problem
01:01:07And now with a
01:01:07Half crab
01:01:09Cody Rhodes
01:01:09Going to continue
01:01:10To apply the pressure
01:01:11To the injured
01:01:12Back of Orton
01:01:13I mean this is
01:01:14What you have to do
01:01:15When you're as good
01:01:16As these two
01:01:17That any weakness
01:01:18Whatsoever
01:01:19You have to exploit it
01:01:22You cannot have
01:01:23A single hesitation
01:01:25Gold is on the line
01:01:26Here
01:01:26Your career legacy
01:01:28Is on the line here
01:01:29This man wants to
01:01:30Take everything from you
01:01:32Randy Orton admitting
01:01:34In an interview
01:01:34He did with you
01:01:35Wade
01:01:35That Cody's like
01:01:37A brother
01:01:37To him
01:01:38But this is
01:01:39About his legacy
01:01:40That is what
01:01:41Drives Randy
01:01:41At this point
01:01:42In his career
01:01:43Yeah it was
01:01:43A fascinating interview
01:01:44I was amazed
01:01:45At how calm
01:01:46And controlled
01:01:46Randy was
01:01:48There's a certain
01:01:51Controlled psychosis
01:01:52About him
01:01:53Which I realize
01:01:53Is an oxymoron
01:01:55But it's true
01:01:55It's like Randy
01:01:56Can flick a switch
01:01:57And that absolute
01:01:58Beast inside him
01:01:59Comes out to play
01:02:00And I'm impressed
01:02:01With what Cody's
01:02:01Doing tonight
01:02:02No hesitation
01:02:03To attack the
01:02:04Weakness of Orton
01:02:05Well not at all
01:02:06And this is what
01:02:07You have to do
01:02:08At this level
01:02:09And after everything
01:02:10Orton has done
01:02:10To Cody
01:02:11Over the past
01:02:12Four or so weeks
01:02:13This is exactly
01:02:15What Orton deserves
01:02:16Who can forget
01:02:17The blast to the head
01:02:19With that steel chair
01:02:20Several weeks ago
01:02:21On Smackdown
01:02:22That left Cody
01:02:22A bloody mess
01:02:23Or ended that friendship
01:02:25Orton blames Cody
01:02:26For all of this
01:02:27Saying that
01:02:27Cody Rhodes
01:02:28Is the one
01:02:29That unleashed
01:02:29The demons
01:02:30Told him to be
01:02:31Who you are
01:02:32And Randy
01:02:33Took it to heart
01:02:34I mean Randy
01:02:38Is just a
01:02:38Binary personality
01:02:40It's black
01:02:41And it's white
01:02:41It's
01:02:42It's friend
01:02:43Or it's foe
01:02:44And when gold
01:02:45Is on the line
01:02:46You make a choice
01:02:48Even if you go
01:02:49Back to the
01:02:50King of the ring
01:02:50Tournament
01:02:51The final last year
01:02:52Randy momentarily
01:02:54Hesitated
01:02:55To put Cody
01:02:56Away in that
01:02:57Match
01:02:57He's regretted
01:02:59It ever since
01:03:00And if he gets
01:03:01A chance tonight
01:03:02He certainly
01:03:02Will not make
01:03:03That same mistake
01:03:04Again
01:03:04And Cody
01:03:05At the same issue
01:03:06In that tournament
01:03:06With Orton
01:03:07And you saw
01:03:08Tonight
01:03:08He wasn't going
01:03:09To allow it
01:03:09To happen
01:03:09When this time
01:03:10Around
01:03:10All bets
01:03:11Are off
01:03:12At this point
01:03:12You hesitate
01:03:14When it's a friend
01:03:15These two
01:03:15Stop being friends
01:03:16Several weeks ago
01:03:17Well not if you
01:03:18Listen to Randy
01:03:22Elbows to the ear
01:03:23Cody Rhodes
01:03:26Reverse it
01:03:26Rhodes center
01:03:27To the corner
01:03:28Over the top
01:03:29Scoops up
01:03:30Orton
01:03:31An incomodation
01:03:32To kick out
01:03:33At two
01:03:38And again
01:03:39Right to the kidney
01:03:40Area
01:03:42Randy's having
01:03:42Trouble just
01:03:43Standing
01:03:43Look at the way
01:03:44His feet are
01:03:45He can't even
01:03:46Stand right
01:03:46Randy is a
01:03:47Shadow
01:03:48Of the man
01:03:49That has been
01:03:50On the road
01:03:51To Wrestlemania
01:03:52That got himself
01:03:53Here
01:03:53Well it's all
01:03:54Going to ride
01:03:55Tonight
01:03:56Cody now
01:03:57Delivers a suplex
01:03:58Great strategy
01:03:59By the chain
01:04:00Into the cover
01:04:01And again
01:04:01These frequent
01:04:02Covers
01:04:03Also hurting
01:04:04The back of
01:04:04Orton
01:04:05As he has to
01:04:05Kick out
01:04:06Yeah absolutely
01:04:07It plows pressure
01:04:08To the midsection
01:04:10Constantly having to
01:04:12Squeeze your torso
01:04:13And you're right
01:04:13That kick out
01:04:14Just triggering
01:04:15Whatever sciatic
01:04:16Issue that might be
01:04:22Randy just trying
01:04:24To somehow
01:04:24Get himself
01:04:25Back in the match
01:04:26As Cody Rhodes
01:04:27Now looks to
01:04:27Climb to the top
01:04:28Rope
01:04:29Randy's barely
01:04:30Got a shot in
01:04:31For the past
01:04:31Five minutes
01:04:33He's been
01:04:33Absorbing abuse
01:04:35And Randy Orton
01:04:37Able to cause
01:04:38Cody to
01:04:39Lose his
01:04:39Lose his balance
01:04:41And now Randy
01:04:41Has a chance
01:05:06And now Randy
01:05:08Orton
01:05:08And Cody Rhodes
01:05:10Exchanging blows
01:05:12Orton needs to
01:05:14End this match
01:05:14Quickly to have
01:05:15A chance
01:05:17I mean can he
01:05:18Block out the
01:05:19Pain enough
01:05:19To deliver
01:05:20Enough damage
01:05:21To Cody
01:05:21To put him
01:05:22Away
01:05:22That's the
01:05:22Problem
01:05:23This is not
01:05:24Smart
01:05:25Not at all
01:05:26Randy
01:05:26Randy letting
01:05:27His instincts
01:05:28Kick in
01:05:28But a superplex
01:05:30To Rhodes
01:05:30Won't be good
01:05:31For Orton
01:05:32Neither
01:05:33Cowboy Bob
01:05:34Orton style
01:05:35Randy Orton
01:05:37Reverting to
01:05:38Type
01:05:38And clearly
01:05:39Regretting it
01:05:44And look at
01:05:45This
01:05:45You go big
01:05:46Or you go home
01:05:47At Wrestlemania
01:05:48And it may be
01:05:48Time for Randy
01:05:49Orton to go
01:05:50Home because
01:05:50Going big
01:05:51There was
01:05:52A big mistake
01:05:58But at least the superplex
01:05:59From Orton's standpoint
01:06:00Has slowed Cody
01:06:01Down a bit
01:06:02And there's a
01:06:02Clothesline by Randy
01:06:03And now Randy
01:06:04Looking to build off
01:06:05Adrenaline
01:06:07There's the
01:06:08There's the
01:06:08Popper slam
01:06:08By
01:06:14Superlative best
01:06:17And that pain
01:06:18As much as it's
01:06:19Hindering
01:06:21Orton's abilities
01:06:22If he can block it out
01:06:23If he can focus
01:06:24If you just do enough
01:06:26There is a pact
01:06:27Of victory
01:06:28And this is it
01:06:29And there's the
01:06:30Drapey DDT
01:06:31That vintage
01:06:32Randy Orton move
01:06:33But again
01:06:34Torque in the back
01:06:35I'll tell you right now
01:06:36There may not be
01:06:37A move
01:06:38In the entirety
01:06:39Of wrestling
01:06:40That does not
01:06:41Involve the back
01:06:42Somehow
01:06:44And even going down
01:06:46And
01:06:49Dropping to apparently
01:06:50Bang
01:06:51The mat
01:06:53Was an issue
01:06:54For Orton there
01:06:55But there's more
01:06:56Than one way
01:06:57To skin a cat
01:07:01Back to his feet
01:07:02Went for the RKO
01:07:03Cody able to counter
01:07:05Randy
01:07:05Grabbed his back
01:07:06Again
01:07:06Now sent out
01:07:07To the floor
01:07:08Right here in front of us
01:07:10Just a beat
01:07:10Too slow
01:07:11Is Orton
01:07:12To follow up
01:07:12On what he's planning
01:07:13And Cody now
01:07:14Runs into a right hand
01:07:15By Randy
01:07:16And Randy needed that
01:07:17A nice club
01:07:18Right to the temple
01:07:19Of Cody Rhodes
01:07:20And Randy Orton
01:07:22Knocking the wind
01:07:23Out of Cody
01:07:23At the right time
01:07:27Look at the
01:07:28Mess and destruction
01:07:29Around us
01:07:30It may be about
01:07:30To get worse here
01:07:32Oh
01:07:34Randy Orton
01:07:35Loves delivering
01:07:36Those blows
01:07:37On the announce table
01:07:38Which he's doing
01:07:39To Cody Rhodes here
01:07:43Cody does have
01:07:44The advantage
01:07:45Tonight
01:07:45Being the champion
01:07:47Randy's got to
01:07:48Pin or submit Rhodes
01:07:49To win the title
01:07:50A brave referee
01:07:52Who does a double
01:07:53Count out here
01:07:54And
01:07:54Think about brave
01:07:55I'm keeping
01:07:55Well back
01:07:56From Randy Orton
01:07:58See that smile
01:07:59Across the face
01:08:00Of the viper
01:08:11Suddenly you see
01:08:12That belief
01:08:13Might be back
01:08:13In the eyes
01:08:14Of Randy Orton
01:08:15Oh no
01:08:16Orton
01:08:17Driven into the post
01:08:18By Cody
01:08:18And Cody
01:08:19Looking to rally
01:08:23Cody's been softened
01:08:24On
01:08:25But he's got
01:08:25A die hard
01:08:26Spirit
01:08:31This has been
01:08:32A physical match
01:08:33And Cody
01:08:34Of course
01:08:35He was attacked
01:08:36Before the match
01:08:37Even began
01:08:37By McAfee
01:08:39And Orton
01:08:39Which might have
01:08:40Been the best thing
01:08:41That could have
01:08:42Happened
01:08:42To Cody Rhodes
01:08:44Based on how
01:08:45Things turned out
01:08:46In the aftermath
01:08:47Of said attack
01:08:49And now
01:08:50Oh Randy Orton
01:08:53Orton's been
01:08:54Busted open
01:08:55And now
01:08:55Cody Rhodes
01:08:56With the right hand
01:08:57And Cody now
01:08:58Going to focus
01:08:58On that wound
01:08:59On the forehead
01:09:00Of Randy
01:09:01Head first
01:09:02Into that steel
01:09:03Ring post
01:09:04And the effects
01:09:04Are apparent
01:09:05To the entire
01:09:06World now
01:09:07And Randy Orton's
01:09:09Problems continue
01:09:10To spiral
01:09:11In this main event
01:09:12With the WWE title
01:09:14Hanging in the balance
01:09:15And now
01:09:15And I rate
01:09:16Cody Rhodes
01:09:17And angry Rhodes
01:09:18Taking advantage
01:09:19Of everything
01:09:20He can
01:09:21Against Randy Orton
01:09:26Can you imagine
01:09:27Cody Rhodes
01:09:28Four weeks ago
01:09:29Perhaps would have
01:09:29Had some sympathy
01:09:31Some empathy
01:09:32From his former mentor
01:09:33From his former friend
01:09:35We can't show that
01:09:37Tonight Cody
01:09:37Yeah but a lot
01:09:38Has changed
01:09:39In the last four weeks
01:09:44Confection of the industry
01:09:46The business
01:09:46Has changed
01:09:48So quickly
01:09:49Because of what
01:09:50Has happened
01:09:51In this rivalry
01:09:55Cody
01:09:57As Randy Orton
01:09:58Is begging
01:09:59For mercy here
01:10:00Cody never thought
01:10:01He would be
01:10:02In this position
01:10:02Tonight
01:10:03He didn't think
01:10:04He'd get a viper
01:10:05So softened up
01:10:06By injury
01:10:07And Cody
01:10:09Cody showing
01:10:10No mercy at all
01:10:12Nor should he
01:10:13Oh and there it is
01:10:14The disaster
01:10:14Kick by Rhodes
01:10:16Randy Orton
01:10:17Drops in the ring
01:10:18Cody's got a chance
01:10:19Into the cover
01:10:20To retain the championship
01:10:21Orton just gets
01:10:23To shoulder up
01:10:23Well Orton is a shell
01:10:25Of a competitor
01:10:26Right now
01:10:27And you're in there
01:10:27With one of the greatest
01:10:29In Cody Rhodes
01:10:30Not where you want to be
01:10:31We're going Rambo style
01:10:33Tonight
01:10:38This has become
01:10:39Just a methodical beatdown
01:10:41By Cody
01:10:42Almost enjoying
01:10:43What he's doing
01:10:45To Orton
01:10:45Well it's catharsis
01:10:47Isn't it
01:10:47Everything Orton
01:10:48Has put Cody
01:10:48Through over the past
01:10:49Month or so
01:10:50Well here's your reward
01:10:52Viper
01:10:52Well I mentioned
01:10:53At the top of the match
01:10:54Where at some point
01:10:55Everybody reaches
01:10:56That breaking point
01:10:57And we wondered
01:10:58If Cody
01:10:59Was going to reach
01:10:59It tonight
01:11:01Cody
01:11:03Beating the hell
01:11:04Out of Randy Orton
01:11:05Here
01:11:06And Randy Orton
01:11:07Just looking limp
01:11:10Cody's been through
01:11:11So much
01:11:12Mentally
01:11:24And now dragging
01:11:25Randy Orton
01:11:26Up to the second rope
01:11:27And Cody Rhodes
01:11:28Maybe about to deliver
01:11:30Some of Randy's own medicine
01:11:33Drury DDT by Cody
01:11:36Well this will be
01:11:38An emphatic way
01:11:40To put down
01:11:42On the Viper
01:11:42For good
01:11:43This is a different
01:11:44Cody Rhodes
01:11:45Tonight
01:11:50Randy talked about
01:11:52His legacy
01:11:53It's about
01:11:54Cody's legacy
01:11:55As well
01:11:57A three time
01:11:58World champion
01:12:00And you feel
01:12:01If Cody
01:12:01Can put something
01:12:03On Orton
01:12:03Here
01:12:04It really is
01:12:05Game over
01:12:06And
01:12:07Cody wants
01:12:08To do it
01:12:08In style
01:12:09And that guy
01:12:11And now
01:12:12Just
01:12:13Mocking Randy
01:12:19Randy
01:12:20Slowly
01:12:21To his feet
01:12:22And Cody
01:12:23Send it to the corner
01:12:24Randy Orton
01:12:27Randy
01:12:30Crossroads
01:12:31To Cody
01:12:34Cody kicked out
01:12:35Or not close
01:12:37To a 15th world championship
01:12:40Well a burst of energy
01:12:42And a burst of ideas
01:12:44At exactly the right time there
01:12:46From Randy Orton
01:12:48Simply transcendent
01:12:50From the Viper
01:12:51Connecting
01:12:52Just when it looked like
01:12:53It was over
01:12:53With that crossroads
01:12:56And spinning momentum
01:12:58Back in his favor
01:12:59But how quickly
01:13:00Can Orton
01:13:01Get back
01:13:02To being the Viper
01:13:03How quickly
01:13:04Can he put a stranglehold
01:13:07On this match
01:13:08Now he has the advantage
01:13:09Because Cody
01:13:10Has been rocked
01:13:12And now Orton
01:13:13Slithers into position
01:13:15Coiled
01:13:16And ready to strike
01:13:17Randy Orton
01:13:18Measuring Rose
01:13:20Went for the RKO
01:13:21Backslide by Cody
01:13:22Solders down
01:13:23Orton kicks out
01:13:26Got him
01:13:28RKO by Rose
01:13:30And Randy kicks out
01:13:32The most dangerous
01:13:35Three letters
01:13:36In all of wrestling
01:13:38But only
01:13:39When applied by the Viper
01:13:41Warm backslide
01:13:43Immediately pounced upon
01:13:44With an RKO
01:13:46Delivered with panache
01:13:48But not delivered
01:13:50With enough
01:13:50To get the three count
01:14:03It is crunch time
01:14:05In the disputed
01:14:06WWE championship match
01:14:09Cody Rhodes
01:14:10The champion
01:14:10Randy Orton
01:14:12The busted open
01:14:13Challenger
01:14:13Who just collapsed
01:14:15On the floor
01:14:15In front of us
01:14:16Cody the man
01:14:17Who has this industry
01:14:18Pumping through his veins
01:14:20The man who has
01:14:20Defended us
01:14:21Against all the insults
01:14:23From McAfee
01:14:24From all the attacks
01:14:25By Randy Orton
01:14:27Now looking
01:14:27To finish the job
01:14:29Randy Orton
01:14:30Took the low road
01:14:31While Cody Rhodes
01:14:32Happy to meet him there
01:14:33And now delivering
01:14:34Orton slammed
01:14:36To him as well
01:14:37And this is a
01:14:37Completely different
01:14:38Cody Rhodes
01:14:39The breaking point
01:14:41Has been reached
01:14:41For the champion
01:14:43It's Wrestlemania
01:14:44If the main event
01:14:46The gold is on the line
01:14:48Against your current
01:14:49Most hated nemesis
01:14:51A man who tried
01:14:52To take from you
01:14:53Everything you hold dear
01:14:56I don't even know
01:14:57If Randy knows
01:14:58Where he's at
01:14:59Wade
01:15:01And he's won
01:15:02Matches from that
01:15:03Position before
01:15:04Though Cole
01:15:04No doubt
01:15:05He can never
01:15:06Write off the Viper
01:15:07Although
01:15:08That moment
01:15:09Is looking near
01:15:13Cody
01:15:14Measuring Orton
01:15:15RKO
01:15:16Out of nowhere
01:15:18Randy
01:15:19For a 15th
01:15:21World title
01:15:21Rhodes kicks out
01:15:23Well coiled
01:15:25Ready to strike
01:15:27Written off
01:15:28By the entire planet
01:15:30But still
01:15:31Venomous as ever
01:15:32But somehow
01:15:34It wasn't enough
01:15:35This is where
01:15:36It's game over
01:15:37For Orton
01:15:37Until it wasn't
01:15:39RKO
01:15:40Connecting
01:15:41And
01:15:42Astoundingly
01:15:43A kick out
01:15:44From a broken
01:15:45Cody Rhodes
01:15:46And two men
01:15:49Who look
01:15:50Completely spent
01:15:51In this main event
01:15:53But someone
01:15:53Has to win
01:15:54This thing
01:15:58Orton spent
01:16:00Rhodes is spent
01:16:03The main event
01:16:04Of Wrestlemania
01:16:06Saturday
01:16:06Everything on the line
01:16:08The prestigious
01:16:09WWE Championship
01:16:39Cody Rhodes
01:16:41Maybe getting
01:16:42In the upper hand
01:16:43Here
01:16:44Randy Orton
01:16:45Turns it around
01:16:46The bigger man
01:16:49Unless that bigger man
01:16:51Is partially injured
01:16:52All his opponent
01:16:54Pokes you in the eye
01:16:55Rhodes to the eye
01:16:56RKO
01:16:57To the official
01:16:58Charles Robinson
01:17:00Well Randy was blinded
01:17:01I don't know
01:17:02If he even was aware
01:17:03That that was the official
01:17:06Cody
01:17:06Poked Orton
01:17:07In the eyes
01:17:08The official
01:17:09Didn't see it
01:17:11And now Randy Orton
01:17:13Stalking Rhodes
01:17:14As he goes to
01:17:15His long time friend
01:17:16Charles Robinson
01:17:17Orton now
01:17:18From behind
01:17:21And Randy went to
01:17:23He was gonna go low
01:17:24Wasn't he
01:17:25And Cody went low
01:17:27On his own
01:17:27Pumped through the eyes
01:17:29Low blow by Rhodes
01:17:31We'll take this spot
01:17:33Wherever you want to
01:17:34Randy
01:17:35That's the message
01:17:36From Cody Rhodes
01:17:37Do what you gotta do
01:17:39The way this man
01:17:40Has been treated
01:17:41You can't blame him
01:17:46RKO
01:17:47By Orton
01:17:49Cody went for the
01:17:50Cody cutter
01:17:51Randy Orton
01:17:52With an RKO
01:17:53Out of nowhere
01:17:54And there's no official
01:18:00Oh Jesus
01:18:03What the hell
01:18:06Who there gave him
01:18:07A referee shirt
01:18:08Who made him
01:18:09A damn official
01:18:11Is this
01:18:12Is this
01:18:12Levi
01:18:35There's no way this is legal
01:18:37Pat McAfee
01:18:38Apparently protected
01:18:40By higher ups
01:18:41In TKO
01:18:42As has been alluded to
01:18:43On Smackdown
01:18:44The past couple of weeks
01:18:45Who knows
01:18:46At this point
01:18:47Cole
01:18:47Referee Charles Robinson
01:18:49Starting to come through
01:18:53Randy Orton now
01:18:56RKO to McAfee
01:18:58Sit down Pat
01:18:59Put out another
01:19:00Down to the brace
01:19:01Crossroads
01:19:04Cover
01:19:04Cody returns
01:19:14The undisputed
01:19:16WWE Champion
01:19:19The American Nightmare
01:19:22Cody Rhodes
01:19:25The student
01:19:26Became the teacher
01:19:28Tonight
01:19:29Cody Rhodes
01:19:32With the killer instinct
01:19:35And that stupid
01:19:37Pat McAfee
01:19:38May have cost
01:19:39Harton
01:19:40An opportunity
01:19:41To win his
01:19:4215th world title
01:19:48Well this is a matchup
01:19:50That ended up
01:19:51Looking nothing
01:19:52Like any of us
01:19:54Anticipated
01:19:55And this is where
01:19:57Cody
01:19:57Put Randy in the eye
01:19:58Ref missed it
01:19:59Ref then
01:20:00Ate an RKO
01:20:03And this is a matchup
01:20:04Randy attempted
01:20:04The low blow
01:20:05Cody was wise to it
01:20:07Low blow
01:20:08Of his own
01:20:09And this is where
01:20:11Things really took
01:20:13A crazy
01:20:14Crazy turn
01:20:15An attempt
01:20:16From Cody
01:20:18Turned into an RKO
01:20:20And before Randy
01:20:22And before Randy
01:20:22Can make the cover
01:20:23Pat McAfee
01:20:24Had turned up
01:20:25Made the pinfall
01:20:26Didn't make it
01:20:28Randy
01:20:28Throwing RKO's out
01:20:30With abandon
01:20:31But Cody
01:20:32Ready to capitalize
01:20:33One crossroads later
01:20:35Still
01:20:36QB1
01:20:37And still the champ
01:20:39Cody Rhodes
01:20:40We talked about
01:20:41All this man
01:20:42Has been through
01:20:42Over the past few months
01:20:44Hell
01:20:44The last three years
01:20:46But Cody Rhodes
01:20:47Stands victorious tonight
