00:00Coming up, the War Raiders and the LWO face off in tag team action.

00:04Can Eric and Ivar notch another win before their World Tag Team Championship Triple Threat Match next week?

00:10Or will the LWO's non-stop aerial offense be too much to overcome?

00:15We're going to see it all play out next.

00:21This weekend, WWE touches down at the Yingling Center in Tampa, Florida to kick off an incredible three nights late.

00:27It all starts with Saturday Night's Main Event on the 24th, then WWE Battleground on the 25th, followed by Monday Night Raw on the 26th.

00:36Tickets on sale now.

00:41Welcome back to Main Event.

00:43The World Tag Team Match kicker for one ball.

00:59And she is impressed at a combined weight of 370 pounds.

01:05Joaquin Wild, Cruz Del Toro, the LWO.

01:11Well, it's time to fly once again with Lucha Libre's finest.

01:16Back at it for the second consecutive week as they have L.A. and June 7th circled right on their calendar.

01:31Vic, you know, last week I went out and bought a hat.

01:33You did not.

01:34Maybe not as cool as Joaquin Wild, but I'm trying to join the hat club.

01:37You have to buy yourself a birthday present because no one else bought you one nor remembered it was your birthday.

01:42You got to call me out, Vic.

01:44Yeah.

01:45Yeah.

01:46Yeah.

01:47Yeah.

01:48Yeah.

01:49Yeah.

01:50Yeah.

01:51Yeah.

01:52Yeah.

01:53Yeah.

01:54Yeah.

01:55Yeah.

01:56Yeah.

01:57Yeah.

01:58Yeah.

01:59Yeah.

02:00Yeah.

02:01Yeah.

02:02Yeah.

02:03And their opponents at a combined weight of 597 pounds, Eric and Ivar, the War Raiders.

02:32And here comes the other end of the spectrum, nearly 600 pounds of force between Eric and

02:40Ivar and Vic.

02:40These Vikings are on another quest for gold.

02:44They certainly are.

02:45And we talked about the Creed's earlier in Ivy Niles' matchup.

02:48But the War Raiders will also have that opportunity at gold this Monday in that Triple Threat Tag Team Championship matchup, which will feature this duo, the Creed's, and the New Day.

03:02Certainly a mixed bag of success in the past, they've defeated the Creed's, of course, New Day regaining the World Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania 41.

03:11And those two superstars here, the LWO, trying to throw a wrench in the plans of Eric and Ivar before their huge matchup this Monday.

03:18Well, you also have to think about the LWO here when it comes to Del Toro and Wilde.

03:22If they could knock off Eric and Ivar on the other side of Monday Night Raw, they could find themselves in line.

03:31They could find themselves in championship contention, so to speak.

03:35I mean, I would not want to be Adam Pearce because the Tag Team Division on Monday Night Raw is absolutely loaded.

03:41The depth certainly rising to the occasion.

03:43Get a little bit cloudy there in terms of contenders behind the New Day as right now the LWO coming off a loss to A-Town Down Under.

03:49Last week here on Main Event, trying to stick and move strategy here is Cruz Del Toro from the outside in.

03:55A-Town Down Under.

03:57What about that shellacking that Grayson Waller took from Sheamus this past Monday?

04:03Big loss in theory.

04:03Had a bit of a laugh there.

04:04Here we go into the cover.

04:05A bit of a laugh.

04:06He was, what do you mean a bit of a laugh?

04:08He was on the outside, he was almost in tears.

04:11Which is what we saw last week, of course, them coming together for once.

04:14But we'll see how that, of course, picks up as things go on.

04:17And, of course, talking about Worlds Collide, look at the LWO.

04:21Certainly want to refocus before June 7th.

04:23It's going to be a huge night out in Los Angeles.

04:27Not only Worlds Collide, but also, as we've talked about earlier, money in the bank.

04:32Look at the double teams here.

04:33Oh, and look at Eric press out before he even won.

04:36But again, back to the big moment this is for the LWO.

04:38I mean, you're looking at a team that was former NXT Tag Team Champions, two-time World Tag Team Champions.

04:44And Eric and Ivar, this would be on a lot of different levels a massive victory.

04:49But right now, power is just overtaking this match.

04:53Indeed, the former two-time World Tag Team Champions in firm control.

04:57Maybe a move you'd expect out of the LWO playbook.

05:01300 pounds of Ivar.

05:04Air was driven out of my lungs.

05:06Crashing down on Joaquin Wilde right there.

05:08And the War Raiders in firm control.

05:10Certainly one way to keep the LWO grounded is by not allowing them to get to their feet and smush them like a bug.

05:15As Eric feels the back elbow of Joaquin Wilde.

05:19And Wilde here trying to...

05:21Oh, innovative.

05:23Innovative offense indeed.

05:24You call him what, the smooth criminal?

05:27Indeed.

05:28Trying to take a page out of Cruz del Toro's playbook.

05:31From the outside in with a missile dropkick.

05:33And the smooth moves of the smooth criminal working right here.

05:37As Joaquin Wilde, of course, along with Cruz del Toro and perhaps Dragon Lee could form one hell of a trio's tag team coming up at World's Collide.

05:48I don't necessarily know.

05:49Did you see that dropkick there by Wilde?

05:52He sprung board off the top into the opposition, back into the ring to make the tag right now.

05:58Talk about a collision right there.

06:00Can the LWO get back in this one here on Main Event?

06:03Back here in Greenville on Main Event, the LWO trying to get back in this one against the two-time World Tag Team Champions, the War Raiders.

06:13Vic, ahead of a huge opportunity this Monday.

06:16And here comes Cruz del Toro.

06:17Could become a three-time World Tag Team Champions.

06:21But right now, LWO trying to pick up the pace in this match.

06:26Almost effectively trying to be that trap match up here.

06:29Whoa, watch out.

06:30Well, that was Danilo. I wouldn't have minded if Danilo got squashed.

06:34Almost a big collision right there in the corner.

06:36Cruz del Toro trying to pick up the pace.

06:39And a big connection right on the side of the head.

06:41And right now, Cruz del Toro has that separation.

06:45He's right at home up top. He's going to walk.

06:47He's walking. He's talking. He's dropkicking.

06:50Right now, LWO in control.

06:52In the cover. Hooks the outside leg.

06:53And right on the cusp, there was Cruz del Toro.

06:57Eric able to kick out.

06:58Ivar wanting to get back into this matchup.

07:00Vic, we talk about the World Tag Team title situation.

07:03Ultimately, was the New Day trying to duck a rematch with the War Raiders?

07:07I 100% do believe that.

07:09That they do not want to go in a standard tag team match against the War Raiders.

07:13But on the other side of things, now that it's a triple threat, their odds obviously are worse off.

07:19Much like Cruz del Toro.

07:21Certainly worse off right here.

07:23Of course, the War Raiders coming off of a 124-day reign as the World Tag Team Champions.

07:28Now, Eric trying to make the tag to Ivar.

07:30Look at Ivar chomping at the bit here.

07:33And there's the big tag to the big man.

07:35And here comes Joaquin Wilde as well.

07:37But Ivar looking to move around the LWO.

07:40Both these teams, NXT experience, tag team division on Raw is just as good as the tag team division on NXT.

07:49They, both these teams, know that that next wave, those next duos are trying to make a name for themselves.

07:55You got to take every opportunity when the door opens.

08:00That's what the War Raiders are doing.

08:01Starting to move right here.

08:03You talk about tag team championships.

08:05Former NXT tag team champions are the War Raiders.

08:07War Raiders.

08:10And now whipping Greenville into a frenzy right here is the big Ivar.

08:17Going to be nothing smooth about Joaquin Wilde after that.

08:22And here comes Eric and Ivar.

08:24Eric now legal.

08:25In the position to pass off.

08:27Wait a minute.

08:28Nice counter there, looked like by Joaquin Wilde.

08:30I think Wilde was able to shift himself ever so slightly to knock Eric off his feet.

08:36And that might just be what the LWO needed.

08:39Some light at the end of the tunnel here for Cruz del Toro and Joaquin Wilde.

08:43Del Toro.

08:45This would be a huge upset, Blake.

08:47Putting Eric into position.

08:49The twisting 450.

08:51Big connection.

08:52Into the cover.

08:53What's the outside link?

08:54Can this do it?

08:54And the War Raiders hang on, Vic.

08:58The LWO thought they had it.

08:59War Raiders cannot experience an L heading into that championship match on Monday.

09:05Talk about the depth of the tag team division on both Monday and Friday nights.

09:09And right now, Joaquin Wilde, Cruz del Toro looking to throw a wrench into the plans of the big tag team title.

09:14Matchup coming up here on Monday.

09:18And that stick and move strategy looking to work once again.

09:22Oh, no.

09:24And here for the second time in this matchup, a big collision between the LWO.

09:28Another tag was made.

09:29Ivar's legal now.

09:31And here we go.

09:32The pass off into position.

09:36Ivar connects.

09:38And it's War Machine.

09:40One, two, three.

09:41Here are your winners.

09:48The War Raiders.

09:52A huge statement win right there, Vic.

09:54The War Raiders certainly just provided the LWO with a biking experience here on main event.

10:02Let's take another look here.

10:03That twisting high-flying offense.

10:05This was close, Blake.

10:06Indeed.

10:07Cruz del Toro put the LWO right on the cusp.

10:09They certainly showed out here tonight.

10:11But the high-flying, innovative offense, not going to be enough for the power game.

10:16They shut it down yet again.

10:18And Eric brings in Ivar.

10:19And all it takes, Vic, is the War Machine.

10:22And if we see that on Monday, we're looking at three-time World Tag Team Champions.

10:27I don't wonder what's going through the mind of the Creed's and also the New Day.

10:32Of course, that's coming up on Monday Night Raw.

10:34A big win building some momentum right here for Eric and Ivar on main event.

10:38Ivar on Monday Night Raw.
