00:00I brought you pain!

00:30Welcome back everybody to Friday Night Smackdown here on MyNetworkTV, Jim Ross and Taz back

00:57with you, the undefeated Russian awaiting the arrival of the new WWE Champion.

01:25Jeff Hardy, the son of a rural North Carolina mail carrier, who debuted in the WWE at the

01:53age of 16.

01:54This match was made, we've got to point that out, by Vickie Guerrero, our General Manager,

01:55at Edge State at the top of the show, to Jeff Hardy.

01:56Hey, you know what?

02:30That's a tough task right out of the box for our champion.

02:31Hey, one fall in that title match.

02:32Our men have been here tonight on the Friday Night SmackDown.

02:33Vladimir Kozlov was knee-deep in the WWE Championship hunt until Jeff's brother, Matt, intervened

02:44and they beat the Bobcats.

02:45A few weeks ago here on Friday Night SmackDown.

02:46People have tried to change Jeff Hardy his entire life.

02:47We've heard Jeff say that in the past.

02:48But Jeff stayed true to himself.

02:49And look at this.

02:50A stupid move.

02:51A stupid move.

02:52A stupid move.

02:53A stupid move.

02:54A stupid move.

02:55A stupid move.

02:56A stupid move.

02:57A stupid move.

02:58A stupid move.

02:59A stupid move.

03:00A stupid move.

03:01A stupid move.

03:02A stupid move.

03:03A stupid move.

03:04A stupid move.

03:05A stupid move.

03:06A stupid move!

03:07A stupid move!

03:08What are you saying?

03:09Jeff is alimentos to the night.

03:10A stupendous achievement of a new WWE Champion.

03:11Jeff has always been dead honest.

03:12A self-proposed reject in his own words.

03:13As he said earlier tonight.

03:14Take that!

03:15Take that, Jeff!

03:16Vladimir Kozlov.

03:17Taking it to the corner.

03:18Now Jeff Hardy, well aware of the Matt wrestling skills and the destructive power of LaMere

03:20Kozlov when he's got you on the canvas.

03:32This has got to be the run and gun of Jeff Hardy

03:36at no huddle offense against this ground and pound and assault.

03:41You don't want a man with the accolades

03:44of Vladimir Kozlov behind you with his hands clasped.

03:47This is one threatening, aggressive individual in the Moscow Mall.

03:54Hardy fighting out of the predicament as aggressively as he can.

03:58And that shot got Kozlov right under his left eye.

04:07Well, that's the quickness there of the WWE Champion, of Jeff Hardy.

04:12Hardy quick in the pace, but ran smack into this 300-pounder.

04:17Hardy goes down, and Kozlov, taking advantage of Kozlov,

04:21may have hurt his own shoulder, driving his arm.

04:24Well, it doesn't seem to be slowing down.

04:27Vladimir Kozlov.

04:29The WWE Champion tossed outside.

04:35Kozlov enraged.

04:38Just a frightening presence is Vladimir Kozlov.

04:42Standing near this man, the person, it's not a fun experience.

04:45I've seen a lot of intimidating moments.

04:48I've seen a lot of intimidating moments.

04:52I've seen a lot of intimidating athletes here in the WWE in my tenure.

04:57I don't think I've ever seen anyone more intimidating than Kozlov.

05:01And Vladimir Kozlov found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time.

05:06How will this one end? We're going to find out when we come back.

05:14Vladimir Kozlov now hammering away at the WWE Champion.

05:18We are back on Friday Night SmackDown.

05:20This is our main event.

05:21Oh, yeah, just a mauling, just mauling situation here with Kozlov

05:26on the WWE Champion.

05:27Look at that storming break.

05:28Watch this.

05:30Completely dropping Matt Hardy.

05:34That kick was right in the sternum,

05:36where the battering ram head of Kozlov usually is placed.

05:40And now the ring post coming into play.

05:42The ring post certainly came into play earlier

05:44when Edge beat the ECW Champion, Matt Hardy.

05:49Now it seems as though Kozlov singling out the knee of Jeff Hardy.

05:55Cover here.

05:57Which will definitely affect the aerial game of Hardy.

06:00Veteran referee Mike Chioda found a two count.

06:02This is a one fall non-title matchup.

06:04The first time we're seeing Jeff Hardy here on Friday Night SmackDown

06:08in a main event since becoming WWE Champion just five days ago

06:13at an amazing Armageddon.

06:17I gotta give Jeff Hardy nothing but credit, man, and props.

06:20Putting to this matchup here by Vickie Guerrero.

06:24Like a punishment type thing and Jeff Hardy not backing down at all.

06:30And that's Kozlov in there with you, you know what I mean?

06:33Vickie Guerrero, the general manager of this program.

06:37The wife of Edge.

06:40A little bit of a conflict of interest, wouldn't you say?

06:43Wow.

06:46Hardy leaving his feet.

06:49Turned into a dangerous predicament.

06:52What a power slam.

06:54And the cover.

06:56And the WWE Champion.

06:58Man, what would it mean to Vladimir Kozlov to beat the WWE Champion

07:04in the champ's first main event since winning the title?

07:08Nothing bigger than that.

07:10Nothing bigger than that.

07:11If you could defeat the WWE Champion at any time, that's gigantic.

07:16This is a perfect application of an arm bar.

07:20It was.

07:21And then now it's assaulting the shoulder and that AC joint.

07:25Kozlov using his weight, his strength, and all of his leverage.

07:33Jeff Hardy in his career was able to overcome so many obstacles

07:37to become the WWE Champion.

07:39Right now, another obstacle.

07:41The Moscow Mauler.

07:43Jeff Hardy, no doubt, a very unique individual.

07:48But his uniqueness and his resilience, his ability to counter Russell,

07:53has got to come to the front here

07:56against a man that has yet to taste defeat in the WWE.

08:00And there's a battering of rams.

08:03Massive skull.

08:06Beautiful belly-to-belly suplex.

08:08The cover.

08:09The champion's in trouble.

08:11You notice the torque in that suplex.

08:16He popped the hips, did Kozlov expertly.

08:19Comes back with the cross faces.

08:21Nothing but power and just manhandling strength.

08:24And it's as if Kozlov now has hit his stride.

08:28His menacing, destructive stride,

08:31but maybe one step over the limit there,

08:34as Hardy awarded it.

08:37Oh, God!

08:38Jeff Hardy putting his own body at risk.

08:41As you whisper in the wind.

08:43As usual, Hardy giving his maximum effort in every move.

08:47Look at that!

08:48Hardy with a whisper in the wind.

08:50Taking down...

08:51Wait a minute!

08:52What the heck?

08:54Hardy hits a whisper in the wind.

08:56And here's Edge.

08:58And now we've got a two-on-one assault.

09:02One Hardy put down earlier tonight by Edge.

09:06And now look at this.

09:10Edge directing traffic.

09:14Edge, three shots on Jeff Hardy.

09:18Jeff Hardy's at the mercy of Kozlov for this.

09:21Jeff Hardy's defenseless.

09:26Triple H!

09:28Triple H!

09:36It may be too late for Jeff Hardy.

09:39And now Edge has got a steel chair in hand.

09:45Kozlov has Hardy in a helpless state.

09:49The WWE Champion is at the mercy of two men.

09:54Edge looking back.

10:03The game is tied to play the game here.

10:06Edge waiting with a weapon.

10:08Triple H will not retreat.

10:10Here we go!

10:11And the fight is on!

10:13Almighty!

10:16Earth shattering pedigree.

10:18And down goes the Russian.

10:20Batting down the hatches.

10:22Oh man!

10:23The game hanging.

10:25Vladimir Kozlov.

10:27And Kozlov arguably costs Triple H the WWE title.

10:32And Armageddon.

10:33And now Kozlov is paying the price.

10:37Triple H had the Triple Threat match won in Armageddon.

10:42Kozlov eating some steel ring post.

10:47Heads up! Heads up!

10:49Heads up! Heads up!

10:51And the head of the...

10:53This massive Russian smacking into the announce table.

10:58Oh my gosh!

10:59My gosh!

11:00A sledgehammer!

11:04Kozlov says,

11:05Nyet!

11:07And the game's got that sledgehammer.

11:09That means business, I will assure you.

11:14Wait a minute.

11:15Wait a minute!

11:16Jeff Hardy!

11:17Hardy out!

11:18Hardy out!

11:22The WWE Champion giving Ed something to remember

11:26for that small-town bomb.

11:29What will Jeff Hardy do to retain the WWE title?

11:34He is now a Mark Lin.

11:36Perhaps another question is,

11:38what will others do to regain the prestigious WWE Championship?
