00:00:00Joe Tessitore, along with a man who 40 years ago this month, was in this very same role.
00:00:11Jesse the Body Ventura is with us for Saturday Night Standings.
00:00:17Jesse, you and I had breakfast this morning, and over coffee, our focus went to the steel cage match.
00:00:23And you said, when it comes to Drew and Damian Priest, things feel very different.
00:00:29Well, first and foremost, I don't drink coffee.
00:00:32Second and foremost, yeah, you're right.
00:00:35The object of this is to get out of the ring.
00:00:38That ain't gonna happen.
00:00:40With McIntyre and Priest, it's gonna stay in the ring, and you're gonna see somebody win the match inside the cage.
00:00:49And, you know, let me just say this.
00:00:52I don't know why anyone would take a cage match.
00:00:56Because when you go in the cage, you might walk in looking pretty, and you can come out looking awful damn ugly.
00:01:04I know you're very excited as well for Jey Uso's title defense against Logan Paul.
00:01:09Yeah, I'm just wondering.
00:01:11You think Mike Tyson will take another dive?
00:01:14Oh, we will see what happens with that.
00:01:16But let's get to the man who will call all the action.
00:01:19The all-time greatest, Michael Cole.
00:01:21And the man who was just in the ring two weeks ago.
00:01:24Pat McAfee, gentlemen, take it away.
00:01:26Thanks, Tessa. Michael Cole, Pat McAfee at ringside.
00:01:29Pat, this building, a lot of memories for you.
00:01:32Yeah, dreams came true in this building.
00:01:34The Thunderdome was here, obviously, a few years back, and I debuted here.
00:01:38I made my name here, and this place is spectacular.
00:01:411,000 degrees in Tampa Bay, Florida today, and it's gonna be even hotter in here.
00:01:46Let's go to the action.
00:01:48Burn it down!
00:01:54Burn it down!
00:02:17Burn it down!
00:02:21The following is a tag team match scheduled for one fall.
00:02:27Introducing first, being accompanied by WWE Hall of Famer,
00:02:33the Wise Man, Paul Heyman.
00:02:36At a combined weight of 475 pounds,
00:02:40the team of Braun Breaker
00:02:44and Seth Freakin' Rollins!
00:02:52For the first time in his career,
00:02:54Seth Rollins has a match at Saturday Night's main event,
00:02:57teaming with a man who's been in one of these events before,
00:03:00none other than Braun Breaker.
00:03:02And, Pat, here's a team, along with Paul Heyman,
00:03:05that is looking to take control of Monday Night Raw in the WWE.
00:03:09And the dogs are barking down here in Tampa with Seth Freakin' Rollins and Braun Breaker.
00:03:14And with Paul Heyman in tow.
00:03:19Heyman running rough shot on everybody.
00:03:33In a matchup tonight that is extremely personal.
00:03:39Especially when it comes to Seth Rollins, CM Punk.
00:03:56CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk!
00:04:09CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk!
00:04:17Their opponent, first, from Montreal, Quebec, Canada,
00:04:22weighing in at 212 pounds,
00:04:25Sami Zayn!
00:04:28You know, Pat, Seth Rollins said he had respect for Sami Zayn
00:04:30until Sami, quote, stuck his nose in my business.
00:04:34And now it's become personal,
00:04:36and Rollins says Sami Zayn is gonna get what's coming to him here tonight.
00:04:40Sami Zayn always fighting for what he thinks is right.
00:04:43Todd's been underdog.
00:04:44He's been seeing what Braun Breaker, Seth Freakin' Rollins, and Paul Heyman have been doing
00:04:48to Monday Night Raw.
00:04:49They're obligated to step up and say,
00:04:52uh-uh, this ain't how this is gonna go.
00:04:55Lot of history. We'll talk about it between Sami Zayn and Braun Breaker.
00:05:09CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk! CM Punk!

00:11:46Punk!
00:11:47These guys have been beating the hell out of each other.
00:11:52And Punk now looking for the go to sleep, the GTS.
00:11:55Rollins able to slip out of it yet again.
00:11:58Rollins looking for the stomp, Punk moves out of harm's way.
00:12:02Both men down, collision, center of the ring.
00:12:05CM Punk set Seth freakin' Rollins up there.
00:12:08Thought he had him instead.
00:12:11Double lariat, both men down.
00:12:13Who has more left in the tank here on Saturday night?
00:12:16And this is a very important match, Pat, for the coalition of Rollins and Breaker.
00:12:21High profile match to prove that they're running things in WWE.
00:12:27Punk makes the tag, here comes Sami Zayn.
00:12:31And Zayn now with Breaker.
00:12:33And Zayn using his speed went for the blue thunder bomb.
00:12:36Breaker able to counter.
00:12:38Breaker looking to use his power, Sami slips underneath again.
00:12:41Sami gonna walk to tight rope.
00:12:44Oh, what a DDT by Sami Zayn who's fired up here tonight.
00:12:54Sami has his opportunity to end this.
00:12:57Yeah, looking for the haluba kick and Seth Rollins again.
00:13:00Getting involved, CM Punk said no way he takes Rollins out.
00:13:05Breaker.
00:13:08The exploder into the corner by Sami.
00:13:10He's setting up for a kick.
00:13:12It's not good.
00:13:14Looking for the haluba kick.
00:13:16It's not great.
00:13:18Heyman grabs Zayn.
00:13:24Paul Heyman just saved this tag team match.
00:13:29Paul Heyman is the greatest manager in the history of this sport for good reason.
00:13:35Oh my God.
00:13:37Oh my God.
00:13:38Oh my God.
00:13:42Where's the big Bronson Reed?
00:13:47Just eliminated CM Punk.
00:13:52A super spear from God Breaker.
00:13:56And a win for Rollins and company.
00:13:59Where the hell did Bronson Reed come from?
00:14:02The winners of this match, Ron Breaker and Seth Frickin' Rollins.
00:14:11The 330 pound Arcella.
00:14:15Big Bronson Reed.
00:14:18Demolished CM Punk.
00:14:21And set Ron Breaker up.
00:14:24To win this.
00:14:26Tag team match.
00:14:28Wait a minute.
00:14:30Don't get too far ahead of yourself.
00:14:32A lot of history between Reed and Rollins.
00:14:35Bronson Reed will fight everybody if we know anything about him.
00:14:41And now squaring off with Ron Breaker.
00:14:44Bronson Reed.
00:14:46Ron Breaker.
00:14:56Of course.
00:14:58You gotta be kidding me.
00:15:00Of course.
00:15:08Seth Rollins.
00:15:11Had another play all along.
00:15:15He pulled out a wild card tonight.
00:15:17And Pat it appears.
00:15:19Despite all the violent differences between Reed and Rollins in the past.
00:15:24For some reason Bronson Reed is back with Rollins.
00:15:28And now Punk trying to get to Heyman.
00:15:31Suffering another assault by Reed.
00:15:34Oh no.
00:15:36We haven't seen this since he left.
00:15:39Rollins knows all about this.
00:15:41A half a dozen tsunamis he suffered at one point in his career.
00:15:44At the hands of this man.
00:15:45A Stormtrooper.
00:15:47To see him Punk.
00:15:56These people are thirsty for another tsunami.
00:16:02But why after their history.
00:16:05Why is Reed with Rollins and Heyman and Breaker.
00:16:12I think if you're Bronson Reed.
00:16:13I think if you're Bronson Reed you think why not.
00:16:18This dangerous.
00:16:20Coalition.
00:16:23May have just become.
00:16:25Unstoppable.
00:16:30Wow.
00:16:31Very curious to see how Bronson Reed factors into this new group.
00:16:46But I am here.
00:16:48With Chelsea Green and her secret.
00:16:50I have risen from the ashes.
00:16:54That an eagle or a phoenix.
00:16:56I was in mourning.
00:16:58But now it is.
00:16:59Night.
00:17:01Saturday night main event to be exciting.

00:17:30I do believe she'll always be able to talk.
00:17:33No matter what she's battling in tonight.
00:17:36She's looking to get her title back.
00:17:40The following contest.
00:17:42Is different one fall.
00:17:44And it is for the women's.
00:17:46United States.
00:17:48Champion.
00:17:50Introducing first.
00:17:52The challenger.
00:17:54Being accompanied by the secret.
00:17:56From Victoria.
00:17:57British Columbia Canada.
00:17:59Chelsea.
00:18:01You know Pat.
00:18:03She's been wearing black as of late.
00:18:05In mourning for losing the United States championship.
00:18:07But tonight she comes out.
00:18:09Decked out in some red white blue.
00:18:11It seems like she already believes that her.
00:18:13Well second term.
00:18:15Has begun.
00:18:17Looks like she's got her swagger back.
00:18:19Alongside her secret.
00:18:21Harvest.
00:18:23Looking to get her title back on a Saturday night.
00:18:25And Saturday night.
00:18:27The women's.
00:18:29Main event.
00:18:31Is presented by.
00:18:33Dude wipes.
00:18:35Best clean.
00:18:37Pants down.
00:18:39They're telling us to rise.
00:18:41Okay.
00:18:43Whatever.
00:18:45Okay.
00:18:47United States title up for grabs.
00:18:49Next.
00:18:51To go.
00:18:53Wow.
00:18:55Tag team matchup CM Punk.
00:18:57With a kick.
00:18:59And the win and then things just.
00:19:01Fell apart when Hayman got involved.
00:19:03Yeah the absolute genius Paul Hayman interrupted.
00:19:05Got the refs back turned.
00:19:07And a return happened.
00:19:09Of Bronson Reed.
00:19:11Yeah big Bronson Reed.
00:19:13Pummeling Punk.
00:19:15Driving him through the barricade.
00:19:17Sammy was distracted.
00:19:19Breaker hit the spear.
00:19:21To pick up the win.
00:19:23And the question will become.
00:19:25Why was Reed out here?
00:19:27Bronson Reed.
00:19:29Paul Hayman celebrates him.
00:19:31Brown Breaker.
00:19:33Understands that there is now.
00:19:35Four.
00:19:37And then.
00:19:39The return.
00:19:41Of the tsunami.
00:19:43Absolutely crushing Punk.
00:19:45And Rollins just changed the game.
00:19:47Here in WWE.
00:19:49Again.
00:19:51Turn him into a CM Punk kick.
00:19:53Am I right?
00:19:55As Chelsea Green and her secret.
00:19:57Mouthy to it.
00:19:59We didn't stand up for Chelsea.
00:20:01Secret Harvest certainly.
00:20:03Wanted us to pay our respects.
00:20:06And her opponent.
00:20:08From Queens New York.
00:20:10She is.
00:20:12The Women's.
00:20:14United States Champion.
00:20:16Zelina Vega.
00:20:20Ladies and gentlemen.
00:20:22For only the third time.
00:20:24In the history of Saturday Night's Main Event.
00:20:25This championship will be on the line.
00:20:27The first was back in.
00:20:29The very first Saturday Night's Main Event.
00:20:31Wendy Richter.
00:20:33Knocking off the fabulous Moolah.
00:20:35And then earlier this year.
00:20:37Rhea Ripley beating Nia Jax.
00:20:39Tonight Zelina Vega defending the United States Championship.
00:20:41Against Chelsea Green.
00:20:43Very emotional.
00:20:45Zelina Vega.
00:20:47In an interview with CBS Sports this week.
00:20:49Talking about how she believed.
00:20:51This was meant to be.
00:20:53That everything is finally right.
00:20:55Has set in.
00:20:57That it is no longer a dream.
00:20:59And after 15 years Pat.
00:21:01Of competing.
00:21:03She finally wins her first singles championship.
00:21:05In WWE.
00:21:07Second ever United States Champion.
00:21:09That's quite a title for Zelina Vega.
00:21:11She's undefeated against Chelsea Green in the past.
00:21:13This is her first title defense.
00:21:15Obviously got to win your first.
00:21:17Before you can be the longest reigning.
00:21:19Chelsea Green quickly out of the box.
00:21:21And taking the fight to Zelina Vega.
00:21:23Zelina beat Chelsea back at the end of April.
00:21:25And bounced off the top turnbuckle.
00:21:27Zelina Vega has a lot of pride.
00:21:29In being the United States Champion.
00:21:31As did Chelsea Green.
00:21:34And her secret harvest.
00:21:36Is obviously a numbers game here.
00:21:38That Zelina is going to have to figure out.
00:21:40There's Zelina.
00:21:42Now Chelsea Green.
00:21:44And a kick out at two.
00:21:46Zelina has had Chelsea's number.
00:21:48You mentioned it before.
00:21:50Vega 4-0 against Green.
00:21:52In singles matches in their career.
00:21:53United States Champion.
00:21:55Nice.
00:21:57Taking Chelsea down to the mat now.
00:21:59Chelsea in position.
00:22:01For Zelina Vega to pay homage.
00:22:03To her mentor Ray Mysterio.
00:22:05But Green moves out of harm's way.
00:22:07And catches her with a slap.
00:22:09Chelsea Green much taller than Zelina Vega.
00:22:11So she's going to have the reach on her at all times.
00:22:13Zelina Vega is feisty as they come.
00:22:16She loves being the underdog.
00:22:18She's learned a lot of course from Ray Mysterio.
00:22:20Who may be the greatest underdog.
00:22:21In the history of the game.
00:22:23Now Chelsea Green.
00:22:25Dropping Zelina Vega.
00:22:27Spine first to the floor.
00:22:29A powerbomb from Chelsea Green.
00:22:31Who wants her United States title back.
00:22:33And champion's advantage in this match.
00:22:35Hook to the leg now.
00:22:37Vega's got a kick at two.
00:22:39Green needs to pin or submit Zelina Vega.
00:22:41To win the championship tonight.
00:22:43Chelsea Green will get distracted every once in a while.
00:22:45But a powerbomb on the outside.
00:22:47Then immediately brings Zelina back in the ring.
00:22:49To try to get the pin.
00:22:51And Chelsea Green now.
00:22:53Getting to dominate this match with Vega.
00:22:55The inaugural United States.
00:22:57Women's champion.
00:22:59Big slap from Chelsea Green.
00:23:01She won the championship here.
00:23:03On Saturday night's main event.
00:23:05The end of the tournament.
00:23:07Cover now by Green for the title.
00:23:09And a kick out.
00:23:11Zelina kicking out there at two.
00:23:13But you've got to wonder.
00:23:15Chelsea's got a lot of power.
00:23:17She's got a lot of power.
00:23:18Zelina kicking out there at two.
00:23:20But you've got to wonder.
00:23:22Chelsea's been in control here.
00:23:24A lot of big time shots since that powerbomb.
00:23:26Zelina tough as they come.
00:23:28Zelina Vega will not give up.
00:23:30Without a fight.
00:23:32But Green now.
00:23:34Is dominating.
00:23:36See Piper Niven elbow fire outside the ring.
00:23:38Looking on.
00:23:40Secret purpose.
00:23:42You get it because Chelsea Green is hurt.
00:23:44Right.
00:23:46Zelina's our champion.
00:23:48You're the best analyst in the business.
00:23:50We're going to be joined by the legendary analyst.
00:23:54Jesse the body Ventura.
00:23:56The governor joining us.
00:23:58The big steel cage match later on tonight.
00:24:00He's looking for destruction in that steel cage.
00:24:03You said somebody's leaving that thing ugly tonight.
00:24:05As only the body could.
00:24:07Zelina fighting back on Chelsea Green.
00:24:10Boom.
00:24:12Big boom.
00:24:14As Chelsea continues to dominate.
00:24:18Chelsea had told me earlier today that.
00:24:20She wanted to wear down Zelina Vega.
00:24:22And believe the longer this match goes.
00:24:24The better it is for Green to.
00:24:26Regain her.
00:24:28United States Women's Championship.
00:24:30She's been doing submission.
00:24:32Nobody home.
00:24:34Vega rolls out of harm's way.
00:24:36And now Zelina Vega.
00:24:38Her secret purpose actually told her to do that.
00:24:40It backfired.
00:24:42Quickly.
00:24:44As Zelina Vega was looking for one thing.
00:24:46That she could flip momentum.
00:24:49Zelina favoring her left elbow.
00:24:51Big clothesline takes down Green.
00:24:53And this is what Chelsea.
00:24:55Had to be afraid of.
00:24:57Zelina picking up some momentum using her quickness.
00:24:59High speed affair is good for Zelina.
00:25:01Oh nice back suplex by Zelina Vega.
00:25:03Into a kip up now.
00:25:05And a champ's rolling.
00:25:09Into the corner.
00:25:11And the knees take out Green.
00:25:13Sideways double knees.
00:25:15I like that from Zelina.
00:25:17Now Zelina Vega.
00:25:19Up to the second rope.
00:25:21Focusing on Green.
00:25:23Green ducks out of harm's way.
00:25:25Zelina's got to roll through.
00:25:27Wow.
00:25:29Wow the power being displayed by Chelsea Green.
00:25:31And now looking for the unpretty her.
00:25:33Her finishing move.
00:25:35But Zelina Vega.
00:25:37With a backstabber.
00:25:40Zelina's asking Tampa to rally.
00:25:42What?
00:25:44She got caught up.
00:25:46Didn't catch it clean.
00:25:48But she still caught her in the bridge of the nose.
00:25:50Good kick there by Zelina.
00:25:52And now the secret purpose.
00:25:54Trying to get involved.
00:25:56Referee distracted.
00:25:58Piper Niven dragging Vega down off the top rope.
00:26:00This dude dropped her right up there on the turnbuckle.
00:26:05And now Vega with a headbutt.
00:26:07Trying to battle back.
00:26:09Oh Zelina Vega.
00:26:11Vega now.
00:26:13Chelsea Green in trouble.
00:26:14Zelina Vega from way up top.
00:26:17Code Red from the top rope.
00:26:20Cover now.
00:26:22And a win.
00:26:24For Zelina Vega.
00:26:26Here is your winner.
00:26:28And still the Women's United States Champion.
00:26:34Zelina Vega.
00:26:39Zelina Vega retains her United States Championship tonight.
00:26:42Secret Harvest had no idea.
00:26:44They thought Chelsea was going to pick up the win.
00:26:46They were waving American flags on the outside.
00:26:48And on the second rope.
00:26:50Zelina Vega was setting Chelsea Green up.
00:26:52For a Code Red.
00:26:54To retain her title.
00:26:56She remains undefeated against Chelsea Green.
00:26:58She remains our United States Champion.
00:27:00As Chelsea's busted open.
00:27:02I'm for serious.
00:27:04Damn.

00:30:00The John Cena retirement tour.
00:30:02Is now underway.
00:30:04Yeah there's a lot of John Cena shirts in the arena.
00:30:06As there is everywhere.
00:30:08I'll be excited to see what the reaction.
00:30:10How it all goes.
00:30:12Well the retirement tour in my mind.
00:30:14Hasn't quite gone the way.
00:30:16We expected.
00:30:18Go ahead.
00:30:20Go ahead.
00:30:22It's been the same.
00:30:24Damn noise.
00:30:26For 25 years.
00:30:2725 years.
00:30:31I've been the victim.
00:30:33Of an abusive relationship.
00:30:40When I first got here.
00:30:42Oh you let me know really loud.
00:30:44That you hated me.
00:30:48So what did I do?
00:30:50I went and I changed myself.
00:30:52Hoping that you would like me a little bit.
00:30:54But then it wasn't enough.
00:30:55So what did I do?
00:30:57I worked hard like I always do.
00:30:59And I started to win.
00:31:01Oh.
00:31:03I won a lot.
00:31:05And you hated it.
00:31:07It wasn't enough.
00:31:11All you do is be hurtful.
00:31:13And you take.
00:31:15And you only care about yourselves.
00:31:19You don't wear this for support.
00:31:21You wear it to make you feel good.
00:31:22You wear words like hustle.
00:31:24Loyalty.
00:31:26And respect.
00:31:28I live them everyday.
00:31:35John Cena is a 17 time world champion.
00:31:46I don't need you anymore.
00:31:48I don't care about you.
00:31:50I don't care about you.
00:31:52And you don't matter to me.
00:31:56I am going to ruin wrestling.
00:31:59For every fan.
00:32:02For every wrestler.
00:32:06For everyone.
00:32:10I will be.
00:32:12The last.
00:32:14Real champion.
00:32:16In WWE.
00:32:18And there is nothing you can do to stop me.
00:32:24R-Truth claims he's going to try to stop Cena.
00:32:27It is reality check time.
00:32:29And R-Truth's mind for the greatest of all time.
00:32:32Cena. Truth. Live.
00:32:34Next on Saturday Night's Main Event.

00:35:06Introducing first, from West Newbury, Massachusetts, weighing in at 251 pounds, he is the undisputed
00:35:16WWE Champion, John Cena!
00:35:23A very interesting reaction, of course, for John Cena tonight.
00:35:26When the initial music hits, the crowd comes to its feet.
00:35:31And then when Cena appears, he's booed out of the building.
00:35:37Ladies and gentlemen, he is the greatest of all time, the never seen, 17,
00:35:48gracing Tampa with his presence for the final time, the last real champion, John Cena!
00:36:03Pat, despite his recent actions, I still believe you are looking at the greatest of all time,
00:36:08the 17 time, record setting, world champion, John Cena.
00:36:15A lot of people wearing...
00:36:21A lot of people wearing John Cena shirts, booing his ass.
00:36:24And here comes, perhaps, his biggest fan.
00:36:29Decked out in old school, Cena gear.
00:36:39That's Ron Cena, baby.
00:36:41And his opponent, from Charlotte, North Carolina, weighing in at 220 pounds, R-Truth!
00:36:53Well, there was an interesting statistic we saw a bit earlier.
00:36:56The fact that R-Truth, in his career, is 2-1 versus John Cena.
00:37:01Cena, however, beat him with a championship on the line, a capital punishment.
00:37:05But R-Truth said tonight, he has one job.
00:37:08And that job is to beat hustle, loyalty, and respect back into his hero, John Cena, tonight.
00:37:20Let's not forget, Cena beat Randy Orton, thanks to R-Truth.
00:37:23And how did Cena repay him? He A-A'd him through a table, through a press conference.
00:37:27Remember, John Cena is R-Truth's childhood hero.
00:37:35John Cena just disrespects the hell out of him.
00:37:38And Cena, wasting a little time.
00:37:42Jason Ayers, the official, calls for the bell.
00:37:45John Cena now assaulting R-Truth, as the matchup just gets underway.
00:37:49Obviously upset with the fact that Truth came out here, trying to be the good John Cena, I guess you would put it.
00:37:57The WWE fans reacted positively.
00:38:00Could also be some PTSD, previous days for John Cena.
00:38:05John Cena! John Cena! John Cena!
00:38:18Currently have 11 of the top 20 trends on X right now, and I think there's another one or two about to join.
00:38:25Cena and Ron Cena are putting on a fight here in Tampa.
00:38:30John Cena's last time ever here in a city that he calls one of his homes.
00:38:36Yeah, and John Cena, of course.
00:38:40Ron Cena lost both of his earrings as John Cena disgustingly throws him back on top of him.
00:38:45Well, here in Tampa, Florida, John Cena won the 10th of his record-setting 17 titles back in 2011.
00:38:54John Cena! John Cena! John Cena!
00:39:02Shoulder tackle by Cena.
00:39:08He calls himself the greatest of all time. You call him the greatest of all time.
00:39:12A lot of people do in half this arena saying that he can't wrestle.
00:39:16I think he might have just pissed off John Cena.
00:39:19And now another shoulder tackle.
00:39:21Cena taking his time, much more deliberate than he has been in the past.
00:39:25Truth looking to fight back, and Cena now going to take him down and put him in position.
00:39:33For his vintage five-knuckle shuffle, which connects.
00:39:40Vintage John Cena here.
00:39:43Measuring Truth for an attitude adjustment.
00:39:46Truth, though, able to slip out underneath, but R-Truth now looks to build momentum.
00:39:49Shoulder tackle of his own, and now R-Truth with another shoulder tackle.
00:39:52This looks familiar, a little deja vu.
00:39:55Yeah, this is vintage Cena that Truth is putting on display here.
00:40:03You can't beat me!
00:40:05Listen to this place.
00:40:08Five-knuckle shuffle by Truth.
00:40:12Truth's got Cena up!
00:40:15Truth with an A-A!
00:40:17Truth, is he going to beat Cena?
00:40:19And a kick out by John at two.
00:40:22Near fall by Truth, using all of John Cena's moves in his repertoire.
00:40:28They're going to take another one now.
00:40:30The STF locked in.
00:40:34The STF locked in on Cena, who goes to the ropes to force the break.
00:40:39John Cena should know every one of these moves better than anybody else on Earth.
00:40:45Yeah, but R-Truth delivered them perfectly to take control of this match.
00:40:49I talked to Truth earlier today, I asked him, what's gotten into John Cena in your mind?
00:40:52He compared Cena to Gollum in Lord of the Rings.
00:40:56Became power-hungry, going after the gold as Truth is whipped into the steel post now by Cena.
00:41:03John Cena throws Truth back into the ring, and what's he thinking here?
00:41:08Oh, we've seen him do this time and time again.
00:41:11John Cena with the title in hand.
00:41:13Again, the title's not on the line in this matchup.
00:41:16John Cena, I believe, just wants to embarrass and do damage to R-Truth tonight above and beyond anything else.
00:41:24Can't use that, says Jason Ayers, the referee.
00:41:27Put R-Truth down for good.
00:41:30Maybe this is the moment.
00:41:32Maybe...
00:41:34Maybe John Cena has reconsidered.
00:41:36Maybe he has a conscience.
00:41:38Saw the look in the eyes of one of his admirers and said, maybe this isn't the way I need to be.
00:41:50At least for the WWE fans, I mean...
00:41:53Oh!
00:41:55Cena went low!
00:41:57AA delivered!
00:41:59One, two, three!
00:42:06Here is your winner, the undisputed WWE champion, John Cena!
00:42:18John Cena!
00:42:22Well, John Cena suckered some of us in tonight.
00:42:29Decided not to use the championship, instead decided to go low once again.
00:42:34Which has become sort of his calling card lately.
00:42:37And now the title off the face of Truth.
00:42:41Again, no reason for that.
00:42:44Yet another despicable act.
00:42:49By John Cena!
00:42:51The goat rams the title off the head of another victim as he walks out of here.
00:42:58The same way he walked in.
00:43:01And again, Pat, the problem with this, and we said it earlier,
00:43:06this is nowhere close to how people believe John Cena would be spending his final year,
00:43:11his retirement year, here in WWE.
00:43:14Especially here in Tampa, a place he calls home, a place he's done a lot of great for.
00:43:18We were hoping for a make-a-wish, a positive night.
00:43:20Instead, it ends with a kick in the balls, and then a title to the head, and down goes John Cena.
00:43:26Well, ladies and gentlemen, switching gears now.
00:43:28We're gonna head into a matchup that's extremely personal.
00:43:31It has been violent, it has been vicious, and it's been physical.
00:43:34And tonight it will end inside a steel cage.
00:43:45It feels like we're stuck in a cycle.
00:43:52We sabotage each other until we destroy everything.
00:44:00I'm banged up, frustrated, and most of all, I'm pissed off at myself
00:44:05for getting stuck in this vortex that is Drew McIntyre's petty, childish, vindictive, endless cycle.
00:44:15That so-called Drew McIntyre vortex you're in is the only reason you're relevant.
00:44:21You're obsessed with me.
00:44:25You look at me and you see everything you've ever wanted.
00:44:29I am better than you in every single way.
00:44:33A backlash.
00:44:35I would have been a Grand Slam champion if it wasn't for you.
00:44:40This has to end.
00:44:42At Saturday night's main event, I want you to feel real pain.
00:44:48I want this to happen inside a steel cage.
00:44:52Only one man is gonna walk out of that cage.
00:44:57The other is leaving on a stretcher.
00:45:01Anarchy.
00:45:02Violence.
00:45:03I hope this is what you wanted, Drew.
00:45:05Because it's what you're gonna get.
00:45:07The cycle ends here.
00:45:14And tonight, this nearly two-year-old rivalry ends inside that structure.
00:45:21The steel cage where you win via escape, pinfall, or submission.
00:45:26A match presented by Dude Wipes.
00:45:28Because wetter cleans better.
00:45:30It is a steel cage match.
00:45:32Priest McIntyre.
00:45:33Live on NBC.
00:45:47Tomorrow.
00:45:48With the lines of battle having been drawn, tensions are high.
00:45:52No surrender.
00:45:54The Dark Angel.
00:45:55The juggernaut battle for the NXT Women's title.
00:45:59No retreat.
00:46:00For the first time ever, the TNA Championship will be defended on a WWE Premium Live event.
00:46:06No fear.
00:46:11WWE Battlegrounds.
00:46:15Ladies and gentlemen, the world champion, Jey Uso, on our main event tonight will defend against Logan Paul here on Saturday night's main event.
00:46:26Jey Uso.
00:46:29Been a long time.
00:46:31John Cena.
00:46:33Last time I seen you, I threw you out the window, Royal Rumble, Uso.
00:46:41That's good.
00:46:42Very... funny.
00:46:46I'm glad you remember the last time we saw each other.
00:46:50I'm looking forward to the next time I see you.
00:46:55You see, there's something special about you being from one of the most prestigious families in the history of our industry,
00:47:02and losing the World Heavyweight Championship to Logan Paul.
00:47:08Wouldn't it be something if when my clock strikes zero, I take this championship home with me,
00:47:17and that championship is around the waist of a YouTuber.
00:47:23Sounds like that would almost ruin wrestling.
00:47:29Gosh, that's a lot of pressure for the match tonight.
00:47:34Good luck, champ. I'll be watching closely.
00:47:40Right on Jey Uso's mind as he defends the world title tonight.
00:47:43Many legends here tonight at Saturday night's main event as well, including...
00:47:49Ilani Kai, former women's champion, two-time tag team champion,
00:47:53competed against Wendy Richter in the first ever WrestleMania.
00:47:58Also here tonight, the legendary Native American star, Tataka,
00:48:03once went 82 singles matches without a loss.
00:48:06He was in three WrestleManias, 18 premium live events in his career.
00:48:11And speaking of legends, joining us here at ringside,
00:48:13the governor, Jesse Damani Ventura.
00:48:15Now, Jesse, back in January 1986, you competed here on Saturday night's main event in Tampa.
00:48:20Let's take it to the tape and tell us what happened.
00:48:22Well, what happened here is I set a record.
00:48:26Never before in the history of broadcasting
00:48:29had somebody gone from the broadcast booth down to the ring,
00:48:34wrestled, and when he was done, went back up and finished the broadcast.
00:48:40And now as I understand it, my colleague, this guy right here, McAfee,
00:48:47tried to steal my record by getting into the ring as a color commentator.
00:48:53How dare you try to do what Jesse Ventura did.
00:48:57The only reason that I'm not blasting you right now is because you lost and I won.
00:49:05Let's get set for the steel cage match. Let's go to Lillian Garcia.
00:49:08That's why you're the body, brother.
00:49:10Well, actually, I admire Pat for doing it.
00:49:15He's the second broadcaster in history to climb into a ring.
00:49:22Football, baseball, none of them do it.
00:49:25The only way to win is by pinfall, submission, or escaping the cage through the cage door
00:49:31or climbing over the top with both feet hitting the floor.
00:49:37I'm actually undefeated at WrestleMania, Jesse, but who wants to talk about that?
00:49:42Certainly not this man.
00:49:44You're undefeated. Who the hell do you wrestle?
00:49:48I was not good, buddy.
00:49:52He's never lost.
00:49:53Hey, I'll tell you something here, guys.
00:49:56I don't understand why McIntyre would agree to get into a cage.
00:50:00He's 3-0 in steel cages in his career.
00:50:03I don't care. He's a good-looking guy.
00:50:06You can be a good-looking guy, and after a steel cage match, you ain't good-looking anymore.
00:50:12Ugly.
00:50:14Nasty.
00:50:16Steel cage.
00:50:20Introducing first, from Air Scotland, weighing in at 275 pounds, Drew McIntyre!
00:50:30A couple prior steel cage matches in Saturday Night's Main Event history,
00:50:33both included Hulk Hogan, one against Paul Orndorff, the other against the Big Boss Man.
00:50:39Drew McIntyre is on a mission to destroy Damian Priest, Jesse.
00:50:44Oh, yeah, and I'll tell you this.
00:50:46I can say this honestly, Pat.
00:50:49If it were Saturday Night's Main Event back in the 80s,
00:50:53I do not think NBC would allow a cage match on TV.
00:50:58So the times indeed have changed when you can get a cage match on NBC.
00:51:05They certainly have, and what these two men are about to do to each other inside of it,
00:51:09it's going to be tough to watch, I do believe, buddy.
00:51:12Well, you know, the object is to escape,
00:51:16but I got the feeling neither one of these guys give a damn about escaping.
00:51:20Well, ladies and gentlemen, this steel cage match tonight on Saturday Night's Main Event
00:51:25is presented by Dude White, because wetter cleans better.
00:51:31For Drew McIntyre, this started a couple years ago at WrestleMania
00:51:34when he won the world championship, held it for just over five minutes
00:51:37before Damian Priest cashed in money in the bank to take the title from McIntyre,
00:51:43and ever since then, these men have detested one another.
00:51:56The thing about this too, Pat, remember this.
00:52:00When a cage match happens, you're not going to see much wrestling.
00:52:04All fight.
00:52:06Exactly.
00:52:13I've been in a few of them in my career,
00:52:16and there's something that you kind of want to forget about.
00:52:21And his opponent, from New York City,
00:52:25weighing in at 249 pounds,
00:52:29Damian Priest!
00:52:32You know, recent history between these two,
00:52:34Priest eliminated McIntyre from the rumble,
00:52:36eliminated McIntyre from the chamber,
00:52:38McIntyre caused Priest to be eliminated from the chamber,
00:52:41McIntyre won at WrestleMania,
00:52:43and Damian Priest,
00:52:45McIntyre caused Priest to be eliminated from the chamber,
00:52:48McIntyre won at WrestleMania,
00:52:50they were in a fatal throwaway war
00:52:52where a salt of heaven was delivered from the stands to a table,
00:52:56Priest had his teeth knocked through his cheek,
00:52:59McIntyre almost knocked out Cole,
00:53:02serious neck injury from that,
00:53:03and tonight they do it inside a steel cage.
00:53:06And like I said, I do not believe 35 years ago
00:53:10you would have had this on network television.
00:53:13Well, you've got it tonight on NBC.
00:53:18Damian Priest, who recently had what he called
00:53:21the highlight of his career,
00:53:23and McIntyre wasting little time,
00:53:25going right after Damian Priest,
00:53:27and that's the last start until they're locked in the cage.
00:53:30Door's not being shut.
00:53:32You know, they may not even get to the cage.
00:53:34Well, they've been fighting all over the place,
00:53:35just look at what happened on SmackDown last night.
00:53:38Drew McIntyre said it's on sight.
00:53:40Uh-oh, remember, no disqualifications
00:53:42in this matchup, and McIntyre gonna take full advantage
00:53:46as he sends some steel chairs into the ring.
00:53:49And bring some luggage with him inside that steel cage.
00:53:52Door slammed shut, and a match is underway,
00:53:55and Priest catches him with a right hand.
00:53:57Any strategy, Jesse, in a match like this?
00:54:00No, what it is, survival.
00:54:03This is about survival, surviving in there.
00:54:06You're gonna get your face rammed into the fence.
00:54:10You know, turnbuckles will be outdated right there.
00:54:15You know, you see that?
00:54:16He ain't looking to hit a Dominican with a turnbuckle.
00:54:19He's looking to put his head through the fence.
00:54:21So, Jesse, how do you mentally prepare yourself
00:54:23for going inside a steel cage off the Flatliner?
00:54:27Well, my best attitude was get ready.
00:54:31You're going in there for the fight of your life,
00:54:33and it's survival.
00:54:35To me, you go in a cage,
00:54:37it's about surviving the cage.
00:54:40When I was making earlier, I called it a career high
00:54:43when Damian Priest, a couple of weeks ago,
00:54:44Pat was inducted with a star on the Bronx-New York Walk of Fame.
00:54:49But it was so important to him and his family
00:54:51as Priest now looks to put McIntyre away.
00:54:54Well-earned, well-deserved for Damian Priest
00:54:56as he's getting his eyes gouged by Drew McIntyre.
00:54:59No rules.
00:55:00Again, everything legal in this matchup.
00:55:03You know, that's the difficult thing here, too.
00:55:07Your referee, the only thing the referee can do
00:55:10is count him out.
00:55:11That's Daphne Lassonde in this matchup
00:55:14as McIntyre has taken control.
00:55:16Drew claims that Damian is obsessed with him,
00:55:19that he's been drawn into the Drew McIntyre vortex.
00:55:22And now Priest set into the steel cage.
00:55:27McIntyre has taken over.
00:55:34Drew McIntyre trying to escape the cage
00:55:36here on Saturday night's main event.
00:55:37Damian Priest trying to intercept McAfee
00:55:40and call it ringside with the legendary
00:55:42Governor Jesse the Body Ventura
00:55:44enjoying this matchup tonight.
00:55:45And Jesse, it's been physical.
00:55:47I will tell you this, I ain't so much enjoying it.
00:55:50I'm feeling the pain, too.
00:55:51Oh, no, speaking of pain, Priest looks like
00:55:54he was gonna go for the razor's edge
00:55:55and McIntyre just saved himself.
00:55:57Hey, yo, that would have been a game-set match.
00:56:01Damian Priest would have been able
00:56:02to climb up over this fence
00:56:03and get the hell out of here.
00:56:05A lot of these guys have been eating steel here
00:56:07since the beginning.
00:56:08McIntyre now, top rope.
00:56:10Priest able to duck underneath.
00:56:12Big kick by Priest.
00:56:15McIntyre back up.
00:56:16Priest catches him.
00:56:17Priest down.
00:56:18South Manhattan choke slam.
00:56:20Priest for the win.
00:56:21Cover on McIntyre.
00:56:23And a kick out at two.
00:56:25Two and a half.
00:56:27And that is Priest's bread and butter move.
00:56:29But you know what?
00:56:30Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.
00:56:33Indeed.
00:56:34And bocce.
00:56:35And that is close right there.
00:56:38Incredible atmosphere here tonight in Tampa.
00:56:40Saturday night's main event on NBC.
00:56:42Is this the final chapter in the rivalry
00:56:45between Priest and McIntyre inside a steel cage?
00:56:48Priest now maybe trying to escape up over the top.
00:56:51His feet would have to hit the floor,
00:56:53and McIntyre playing defense.
00:56:56Couldn't get the one, two, three,
00:56:58so he said, I'm gonna climb the cage
00:56:59and get the hell out of here.
00:57:01Drew McIntyre says, I'll see you at the top.
00:57:04I don't know.
00:57:05If he gets away, he'll make it.
00:57:07Dangerous position here.
00:57:08But I don't think he's getting away.
00:57:10McIntyre's got him hooked.
00:57:13He's got him hooked.
00:57:14He's looking to grab the tights and get a grip.
00:57:17When he gets that, oh yeah.
00:57:19Numerplex.
00:57:21Priest coming from the top of the cage.
00:57:27Pip up Drew McIntyre.
00:57:29And McIntyre is ready to put Priest away.
00:57:33What a move that was, huh?
00:57:35Looking for the Claymore.
00:57:37Three, two, one.
00:57:41Claymore by McIntyre.
00:57:43For the win, inside the cage.
00:57:46And a kick out by Priest.
00:57:51Tampa's on fire.
00:57:53I want to keep track of these referees
00:57:56and their timing on this one, two, three.
00:58:00Every ref has their own count.
00:58:02That's certainly a piece of information you have.
00:58:04They all have their own count,
00:58:06but they need to be consistent with that count
00:58:08throughout the entire match.
00:58:11Indeed it is.
00:58:12The sold out crowd of the Younglings Center
00:58:14in Tampa, Florida.
00:58:16Roaring their approval for this steel cage match
00:58:19between McIntyre and Priest.
00:58:21They're both down to guts right now.
00:58:24Look it, they're both out of gas.
00:58:26Yeah, tremendous.
00:58:27Nobody's got nothing left in the tank right now.
00:58:29Well, they've been through wars, Jesse,
00:58:31over the past number of months.
00:58:33I mean just tonight.
00:58:35The tanks are emptying.
00:58:37Well, maybe not.
00:58:38Second win perhaps coming from both McIntyre and Priest.
00:58:41And Priest, using that martial arts background
00:58:45in a big right hand.
00:58:46These men will fight forever,
00:58:48and they have if you let them.
00:58:51Damian Priest.
00:58:52And Priest now into the corner.
00:58:54Every piece of his body's a weapon.
00:58:57A weapon to Claymore.
00:58:58Priest hung on.
00:58:59Averted disaster there for the win.
00:59:02Another cover near fall.
00:59:08And McIntyre delivers his own self to heaven.
00:59:12Taking Priest's move.
00:59:14And Priest able to kick out at two.
00:59:17Jesse, what does McIntyre have to do?
00:59:22Well, he's got to speed up the ref count.
00:59:24Okay, obviously.
00:59:26Other than that body,
00:59:27I think Drew McIntyre saw Damian Priest
00:59:30try to Claymore earlier and said,
00:59:31is that funny?
00:59:32I'm going to use your move too.
00:59:33These two have fought each other so much,
00:59:34I assume they know each other inside and out.
00:59:37Yeah, Priest.
00:59:38And obviously no one has any move patented to themselves
00:59:42because certainly anyone can do anything in there.
00:59:45Priest, as tough as they come.
00:59:48McIntyre now staring back down at the steel chair
00:59:51that he sent into the ring before this matchup even started.
00:59:55Now going to use it as a weapon
00:59:57and right to the midsection of Priest.
01:00:00And unloading to the spine.
01:00:02And again, no disqualification.
01:00:05So the one and only time
01:00:08you can get away with that stuff in the ring.
01:00:10Again, your point that the official only counts
01:00:12the pinfallers, the submission in this matchup.
01:00:16Other officials outside the ring to see if both
01:00:18face at the floor.
01:00:19So they did a full paycheck then,
01:00:21if that's all they got.
01:00:22Of course.
01:00:23Putting themselves in danger, obviously.
01:00:24They're in a steel cage.
01:00:25Jesse, they have the McAfee deal.
01:00:28Okay.
01:00:29Always get paid in full, brother.
01:00:31They got the McAfee deal, huh?
01:00:34No, because I mean,
01:00:35they don't have to do anything but count pinfall.
01:00:38I would think you'd get a discount on that.
01:00:40McIntyre now believes he's got this one won
01:00:44as he drags Priest back up.
01:00:46Oh, wait a minute.
01:00:47Oh, now, look it.
01:00:48Now, the way that chair's positioned,
01:00:50this is how McIntyre beat Priest in WrestleMania.
01:00:53But tonight, the Claymore misses Priest.
01:00:57Into the chair goes McIntyre.
01:01:00And now it's Priest's opportunity.
01:01:02With the chair, he goes low.
01:01:05Can he go high?
01:01:08Yep.
01:01:09And Priest down.
01:01:11Oh, no.
01:01:12The chair right to the throat.
01:01:19And Priest down with another self to heaven.
01:01:22McIntyre, I mean, problems breathing here.
01:01:27Might have trouble eating for the next few months, too.
01:01:32Priest better quit looking around at the crowd
01:01:36and finish him off when he's got the shot.
01:01:39Priest has got a mouse growing under the left eye.
01:01:42He's dinging around too much.
01:01:44Well, wait a minute.
01:01:45I believe he doesn't want to pin McIntyre here.
01:01:47He wants to punish the man that's made his life
01:01:49a living hell for the last two years.
01:01:51A concerto, potentially, here.
01:01:54Well, McIntyre's in trouble.
01:01:57He's thinking concerto call.
01:01:59Damian Priest with McIntyre.
01:02:02Isn't moving center of the ring.
01:02:04Priest with said concerto.
01:02:08That is the same move that he used to eliminate his mentor,
01:02:12the man who invented the concerto,
01:02:15edge a number of years ago.
01:02:17And tonight, he uses it against his archenemy,
01:02:20Drew McIntyre.
01:02:22And Priest now staring back at Drew.
01:02:26He's wasting too much time.
01:02:30Drew McIntyre has not moved.
01:02:34Damian Priest will walk out of the ring.
01:02:38Instead of pinning McIntyre,
01:02:41he'd rather deliver the ultimate insult,
01:02:45embarrassing McIntyre,
01:02:47and waltzing out of the ring to win the steel cage match.
01:02:52Wait a minute.
01:02:53Here is your winner,
01:02:55Damian Priest!
01:02:58Wait a minute.
01:03:00How do you win it going out the door?
01:03:03That's the round they speak.
01:03:05What kind of B.S. is that?
01:03:08He can walk out the door?
01:03:11As we take a look at the match replay,
01:03:13presented by Dude White's tonight.
01:03:15McIntyre, critical error there.
01:03:17And then this by Damian Priest.
01:03:19And listen, Priest could have defeated McIntyre
01:03:23with a pin here after this, Pat, the concerto.
01:03:25But Damian Priest, after all these two men have went through,
01:03:28wanted the satisfaction of being able to walk out of the cage
01:03:32on his own power with his head held high.
01:03:35A definitive victory tonight over Drew McIntyre.
01:03:39I'll throw in there and say he walked out like a coward.
01:03:43Well, that's your take, Jesse, of course.
01:03:45But nonetheless, McIntyre...
01:03:47He could have at least gone over the top of the cage if he's going out.
01:03:51McIntyre...
01:03:52He walks out the door.
01:03:53Give me a break.
01:03:54The one who is being attended to by emergency medical personnel.
01:03:59Boy, that was exciting, wasn't it?
01:04:01Walking out the door.
01:04:03Well, that's how you win a steel cage match.
01:04:05Pinball submission, escape will meet at the floor.
01:04:08Turned his back on Drew McIntyre after the concerto
01:04:11and walked out on him, Bonnie.
01:04:13He thinks it was probably a show of greatness,
01:04:16if you ask Damian Priest.
01:04:18Well, he might think so,
01:04:20but I think he should have gone out over the top.
01:04:23That walked out the door.
01:04:27Damian...
01:04:28I mean...
01:04:29Putting Drew McIntyre's position up.
01:04:31Why didn't he call up and have the limo driver waiting to open it for him?
01:04:36Emergency medical personnel attending to McIntyre off the concerto.
01:04:43McIntyre, he wants to walk out on his own power.
01:04:47Well, ladies and gentlemen, we are moments away
01:04:49from our main event here tonight,
01:04:51the world champion, Jey Uso,
01:04:54will yeet into Tampa with the title on the line
01:04:57against the social media megastar, Logan Paul.
01:05:01Uso, Paul, coming up next.
01:05:06On June 7th,
01:05:08Los Angeles hosts two epic events.
01:05:14WWE Worlds Collide featuring AAA Lucha Libre.
01:05:18My, oh my, how good is this?
01:05:20And WWE Money in the Bank.
01:05:22The opportunity of a lifetime.
01:05:24Rise above the rest.
01:05:30WWE Worlds Collide and Money in the Bank.
01:05:32And the legends are out,
01:05:35including the US Express,
01:05:38Mike Rotunda and Barry Windham.
01:05:41Both men Hall of Famers.
01:05:42In fact, Barry's a two-time Hall of Famer.
01:05:44They are here tonight.
01:05:46These two won the first ever match
01:05:48on Saturday night's main event.
01:05:50Let's check in with Joe and Jesse.
01:05:52Thanks very much, guys.
01:05:53We're sitting back and reflecting
01:05:55on this dynamic night we've already had.
01:05:57The cold red from the top rope was Lena Vega.
01:06:00Priest with the concerto in the exit.
01:06:02Cena with the win.
01:06:04But what's impressed you the most?
01:06:06What's impressed me
01:06:08has been the return of Bronson Reed.
01:06:11I mean, this guy got injured a while back,
01:06:14and he just made a return tonight,
01:06:17crushing CM Punk.
01:06:19And he is going to be a force
01:06:22to be reckoned with real quick.
01:06:24The tsunami off the top rope.
01:06:26That led, of course,
01:06:27the win by Braun Breaker and Seth Rollins.
01:06:30As we are now, folks, just moments away
01:06:33from Logan Paul challenging Jey Uso
01:06:37for the World Heavyweight Championship.
01:06:45Main event, Jey Uso
01:06:49has the WWE fans on their feet.
01:06:54Every city's yeeting with Jey Uso.
01:06:57I've never felt anything like this.
01:06:59Like, the walls are moving.
01:07:01This is nuts.
01:07:03It's your time to create your own legacy, Uso.
01:07:08Jey Uso wins the damn title!
01:07:11The World Heavyweight Champion
01:07:13is now in your city!
01:07:18You people are so stupid.
01:07:22You don't know greatness
01:07:23when it's standing right in front of you.
01:07:25Man, I've done just about everything
01:07:27there is to do here in this industry
01:07:29except win a world title.
01:07:31So, Jey Uso, you have something that I want.
01:07:35Uso!
01:07:36We're gonna silence this noise
01:07:39because he thinks after 15 years
01:07:42that I'm gonna just hand this over
01:07:44to some punk-ass YouTuber like Logan Paul.
01:07:47Stop!
01:07:48That title, I'm gonna take it from you.
01:07:51So, Jey, enjoy it while you still can.
01:07:54Yeet!
01:07:55Super tech to Paul!
01:08:01Jey, you are not fit to be a champion.
01:08:04Logan Paul will be your new
01:08:06World Heavyweight Champion!
01:08:09A world champion with a super tech to Logan Paul!
01:08:14Jey Uso defends his World Heavyweight Championship
01:08:18against Logan Paul.
01:08:19Will Jey Uso continue to get it done?
01:08:23Four letters, one word!
01:08:30Uso!
01:08:32Oh, yeah, Paul!
01:08:35Let's go!
01:08:49Bobby Yeet and go!
01:08:55Ladies and gentlemen, 15 years ago tonight
01:09:00Jey Uso and his brother Jimmy
01:09:03debuted in the WWE on Monday Night Raw.
01:09:07Tonight, 15 years later,
01:09:09Jey Uso is on Saturday Night's Main Event
01:09:12defending the World Heavyweight Championship!
01:09:17And he had the whole city on his back.
01:09:20That kid yeets 4,000 times better than you, Paul!
01:09:27Something about yeeting in Tampa!
01:09:35That was awesome.
01:09:37That kid killed that.
01:09:40That was awesome.
01:09:42That kid killed that.
01:09:54I'm gonna tell him you stopped yeeting.
01:09:56I'm gonna tell him you stopped yeeting.
01:10:07The following contest is scheduled for one fall
01:10:10and it is for the World Heavyweight Championship!
01:10:17Introducing the challenger
01:10:20from Toronto Beach, Puerto Rico
01:10:23by way of Cleveland, Ohio,
01:10:25weighing in at 220 pounds,
01:10:29Logan Paul!
01:10:34Saturday Night's Main Event on NBC
01:10:37is presented tonight by Dude White.
01:10:39That's clean, hands down.
01:10:42Logan Paul with his first opportunity
01:10:44at this World Heavyweight Championship.
01:10:48He has never gone one-on-one with Jey Uso.
01:10:50Pat, this is the second title defense
01:10:52for Main Event Jey Uso here tonight.
01:10:56It feels like everybody in the WWE
01:10:58is gunning for Jey Uso
01:11:00and tonight he's gotta deal with the Maverick.
01:11:02The winner of this match-up, of course,
01:11:05no rest for the weary.
01:11:07Two weeks from Monday in Phoenix,
01:11:09the winner will defend the World Title
01:11:11against the former champ, Gunther,
01:11:13who I'm sure is watching this match
01:11:15very closely tonight.
01:11:17Referee Rod Zapata will be the official
01:11:20in this match-up for the World Title.
01:11:22Both men successful at WrestleMania.
01:11:24Jey Uso defeating Gunther,
01:11:26tapping him out to win the title.
01:11:27Logan Paul beat AJ Styles.
01:11:31It always feels like it's for
01:11:33the entire industry
01:11:35whenever Logan Paul's fighting somebody.
01:11:37He is taken to this business
01:11:39quicker than anyone.
01:11:41John Cena in a backstage altercation
01:11:43with Jey Uso a little bit earlier tonight.
01:11:49Basically, Cena put a lot of pressure
01:11:51on Jey Uso's shoulders that,
01:11:53imagine if you lose to a, quote, YouTuber.
01:11:56It would bring all the prophecy
01:11:59true for John Cena.
01:12:01Something Cena's been saying
01:12:02for the past number of months.
01:12:03Cena thinks that would ruin wrestling,
01:12:05although if you listen to Logan Paul,
01:12:06he thinks it would be great for wrestling
01:12:07and the business as a whole.
01:12:09Logan caught Jey with an elbow.
01:12:11Logan very good in between those ropes.
01:12:13Very well known around the globe.
01:12:16And Paul now, wow,
01:12:17what a blockbuster taking out Uso.
01:12:19And a kick-up by Paul.
01:12:20Tremendous athlete,
01:12:21former United States champion.
01:12:25The disdain of the WWE fans.
01:12:29Jey Uso here,
01:12:31he's not gonna underestimate anybody
01:12:33because he's our world champ,
01:12:34but Logan Paul does seemingly sneak up
01:12:36on people quick.
01:12:37And Logan now up over the top,
01:12:38takes out the champ.
01:12:40Logan Paul could be closing in
01:12:42on his first ever world title.
01:12:47We are back on Saturday night's main event.
01:12:49Jey Uso, the world champion,
01:12:51is rallying here against Logan Paul
01:12:54with his title on the line
01:12:55in our main event tonight.
01:12:57He's put Logan Paul in a blender here.
01:12:59Yeah, Logan was putting on a clinic,
01:13:01throwing a number of jabs earlier on,
01:13:03of course, setting up Uso
01:13:04for the titanium-plated right hand.
01:13:08Bang into the corner.
01:13:10Uso takes out Paul.
01:13:12Here's the cover by Jey
01:13:13to retain the championship.
01:13:15Paul kicks it, too.
01:13:16Remember that right hand of Logan Paul
01:13:19has knocked out Jey Uso
01:13:21three separate times
01:13:23in the past number of weeks.
01:13:25Maybe even four in the preparation here
01:13:29for our world champion.
01:13:31Jey Uso taken to the sky.
01:13:33Comfortable.
01:13:34Oh, no, no, no, no.
01:13:35Logan Paul stopped him,
01:13:36rolls him through.
01:13:37Shoulders are now down.
01:13:39Two-count kickout by Uso.
01:13:41Zapata's an incredible referee.
01:13:44My arm! My arm!
01:13:47Oh, Logan's not happy.
01:13:48Yeah, Logan upset.
01:13:49Thought it was a slow count by Zapata.
01:13:52Logan's been here for a few years.
01:13:54He's had a couple massive matches,
01:13:55still young in his entirety.
01:13:57And Logan looking to put Jey Uso away here, perhaps.
01:14:01Marching around the ring with the world champion.
01:14:05Wow, rolled through again.
01:14:06Logan's so impressive.
01:14:08Second rope, moonsault.
01:14:10Knees.
01:14:11Oh, and the knees right to the midsection
01:14:12of Logan Paul.
01:14:13And Uso creates some space,
01:14:16trying to fight back into this.
01:14:20Logan Paul was able to read the distance
01:14:22he needed for that lion's salt.
01:14:26And a pop-off Samoan.
01:14:28Cover by Jey to retain the title.
01:14:32And Logan kicks.
01:14:34That was close, Cole.
01:14:38I thought Logan Paul was going to say,
01:14:39no mas after that pop-off Samoan.
01:14:42Drop.
01:14:48And that would be where you think
01:14:49Jey Uso tries to take over.
01:14:52Logan Paul back to his feet as well.
01:14:54Made him at Jey Uso.
01:14:55We're going to dig down deep,
01:14:57much like he did against Gunther
01:14:58back at WrestleMania.
01:15:00Paul trying to hang on.
01:15:03And the turnbuckle pad from the second turnbuckle
01:15:08ripped off.
01:15:09And Jey Uso now sends Logan out to the floor
01:15:11and into our table.
01:15:16Jey Uso looking to fly.
01:15:18And Jey now with a suicide dive.
01:15:19And there's that right hand.
01:15:21The right hand by Logan Paul
01:15:23caught Jey Uso.
01:15:25And now sends Jey into the corner.
01:15:29And Logan Paul
01:15:32off the apron.
01:15:33There's that snapshot.
01:15:34Lariat, but he got caught by the super kick.
01:15:37Cover by the champ.
01:15:39And a kick out at two.
01:15:48Great ring awareness by the champion Uso.
01:15:53You got to think Jey Uso's wondering
01:15:54what it's going to take here.
01:15:56Yeah, 15 years ago tonight,
01:15:58mentioned earlier, Jey Uso made his debut
01:16:00in WWE with his brother Jey
01:16:02on Monday Night Raw.
01:16:0315 years later, he's defending
01:16:04the World Heavyweight Championship
01:16:06in the main event of Saturday Night's
01:16:08main event.
01:16:10And Logan Paul
01:16:11sending Uso shoulder first
01:16:13into the exposed turnbuckle.
01:16:15And Logan now with an opportunity.
01:16:17Big right hand.
01:16:18Down goes Uso
01:16:19for the win
01:16:20and the title.
01:16:21And Jey kicks at two.
01:16:26That hand is dropped, Jey,
01:16:28so many times over the last few weeks.
01:16:33Exposed turnbuckle into
01:16:36that massive right from Logan Paul.
01:16:40Logan's got to be wondering
01:16:41what do I have to do to put Jey away?
01:16:43One more big right.
01:16:47Hands all over Logan Paul here tonight.
01:16:49Uso catches him with a super kick.
01:16:51Logan's down.
01:16:52Uso setting him up,
01:16:53looking for the frog splash
01:16:55to retain the championship.
01:16:58Jey from up top.
01:16:59Frog splash connecting.
01:17:03Uso into the cover.
01:17:05Hooks the leg.
01:17:07Oh, Cena!
01:17:08John Cena just
01:17:11pulled the official out of the ring
01:17:12and now he's assaulting Jey Uso.
01:17:19John Cena,
01:17:20the man who says he wants to ruin wrestling.
01:17:23The man who told Jey Uso earlier
01:17:25I'll retire with the title
01:17:27and the one you have
01:17:28is going to be worn by a YouTuber.
01:17:31And that prophecy may come true
01:17:33here tonight.
01:17:35The official's out.
01:17:42And here comes the quarterback.
01:17:47Cody Rhodes is back
01:17:49for the first time since Wrestlemania.
01:17:57Crossroads to Cena.
01:18:00Meanwhile, Logan Paul's got brass knuckles.
01:18:03Paul's got brass knuckles.
01:18:05This is wildly spanned by Uso.
01:18:15Jey going up top.
01:18:19Frog splash.
01:18:21Rod Zapata has come to.
01:18:24Uso retains.
01:18:28Here is your winner
01:18:31and still the World Heavyweight Champion,
01:18:37Jey Uso.
01:18:41Despite the efforts of
01:18:43Logan Paul and John Cena.
01:18:47And thank you, Cody Rhodes.
01:18:49Jey Uso retains the title.
01:18:50You've ruined enough.
01:18:53I'm sorry that the John Cena farewell tour
