00:00Time ticking down on his plan, as he says, to ruin wrestling.
00:16He'll be defending against CM Punk, June 28th, United Champions in Saudi Arabia.
00:20Wrestling's Mount Rushmore, John Cena, yes, there have been great talkers, and no one in the future is even comparable to me.
00:37It is because I'm smarter than you. You can't see me when I won this moment right now over a year ago.
00:46Punk and Rollins would melt down, giving me an easy win, and on that night, seize the moment, shock the world, and become an unpredictable opponent.
00:55I used your fanfare of a 25-year-old rivalry in Randy Orton's hometown. I put R-Truth in the main event.
01:04I used CM Punk's rebellious nature to back him into a corner, where now, if CM Punk really wants to take this, he has to admit to himself that he's a hypocrite.
01:17Seth Rollins will never cash in on me holding this. I am the greatest of all time for a reason.
01:27Whether or not I sold my soul, I win matches before they even start. And to me, you are simply just a mathematical equation.
01:37A thousand steps ahead, you said you're so smart. This guy's a genius. You're right. Seth and Punk, they melted down.
02:06You used Randy's home field advantage. Mount Rushmore? Absolutely sure. This variable that you didn't account for, it's very simple.
02:16You were looking up at the lights, and I pinned you in the center of this ring.
02:25I'm not part of your plan. You're part of mine. John Rushmore? Where does that leave you and I?
02:32I am going to say...
02:34Haven't seen Randy Orton in action in five weeks when he came up short again. I've seen that backlash.
02:42The ring is filling up with WWE royalty.
02:46You and I fight in St. Louis at Backlash saw that I had you beaten until somebody's decided to come and save the day.
03:02I have to go through to get number 15. I don't care who it is I have to go through. Cody, I love you like a brother, and you know that. But I have to put your ass down. I will not hesitate to do it.
03:15Let me talk to you. I've heard the whole damn world say, we want LA night. And I know for damn sure what none of y'all want. And that's me walking down here. Defiantly as I walk down here, I am looking at the WWE establishment.
03:42Your plans didn't include this man. Yeah. Because I got a shot at you. I got a shot at you. I got a shot at you. And if I got to drop a genius balding bitch John Cena, I will be with everybody saying.
03:55Oh.
03:57Oh.
03:58Oh.
03:58Oh.
03:59Oh.
03:59Oh.
04:00Oh.
04:01Oh.
04:02Oh.
04:03Oh.
04:04Oh.
04:05R-Truth again on the attack.
04:07Gave himself a free haircut.
04:09Here on SmackDown.
04:10Yeah, he said put some respect on my name.
04:12R-Truth all over.
04:14Oh.
04:15Oh.
04:16Oh.
04:17Oh.
04:18Oh.

04:47Oh.
04:48Oh.
04:49Oh.
04:50Oh.
04:51Fascinating match-up in terms of styles. There's Ant-Wade.
04:55The runner up in last year's King of the Ring tournament, but Gumphrey got the win.
05:00Mayan, who was clearly up in the end.
05:03Here's what I find interesting. That was a roll-up! Mellow!
05:08And then he runs right into the Viper.
05:10John Cena's made it clear, names such as Randy Orton or Cody Rhodes.
05:14Oh, would you look at Aleister Black!
05:16Randy Orton, LA Knight, Aleister Black, and Mellow.
05:20And LA Knight, there was a moment there on the ladder.
05:24He's gonna cash in right in LA.
05:26Seth Rollins' crew earlier in the matchup, still almost tournament now.
05:31Oh! Oh! How about that?
05:33Just too much quick, too...
05:35And then Springboard!
05:36Downtown, here comes Carmelo!
05:38Flying out to the floor!
05:40Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
05:43Oh! Knight!
05:45Aleister Black unable to do so!
05:48He looked to send Orton out of the ring, but instead...
05:51Frogs blasts Mellow!
05:53Oh, and coming in and making the save at the last...
05:57Joe Tessitore and Wade Barrett with you ringside.
05:59A compelling first-round tournament.
06:01Volley of Muatai strikes...
06:04Oh!
06:05Oh!
06:06Oh!
06:07His rivals...
06:08Oh!
06:09But instead...
06:10Talk about the speed at Wissnake!
06:11Oh!
06:12Oh!
06:13Oh, Meville, you lost son!
06:15And so much impact on the landing!
06:18Randy Orton sensing...
06:20Oh!
06:21Oh!
06:22Oh, my!
06:23With the jumping neckbreaker!
06:24Oh!
06:25Oh!
06:26Oh!
06:27Oh!
06:28Oh!
06:29Oh!
06:30Oh!
06:31T on Aleister Black!
06:32Steve!
06:33Oh!
06:34To win it!
06:35Oh, Mellow!
06:36That slams down Mellow!
06:37Oh!
06:38Oh!
06:39Oh!
06:40Oh!
06:41Oh!
06:42Oh!
06:43Oh!
06:44Oh!
06:45Oh!
06:46Pull-out from MONEY in the bank!
06:48Brom Small!
06:49Mit- timber kill!
06:50Three!
06:51mereka
07:04We're apart than Wade,
07:06Ron Breaker,
07:08Melo went up for the splash!
07:10From out of nowhere,
07:11the Viper catches Hazen,
07:13and now we get the bracket!
07:15Coming live and direct the Ruff Arena.
07:18Y'all know what I mean?
07:24Jacob Batu!
07:34Lexington, Kentucky!
07:37Let's keep it 100!
07:39Don't mean that you could go behind their back and try to snake them.
07:42That you could take all the credit for your hard work.
07:47Solo says Jacob Batu will be nothing.
07:50And money in the bank.
07:52What happens when you don't get in?
07:54Where you fit in?
07:56Y'all know what I mean?
07:58Boom!
07:58That's right.
07:59Tell them how you feel.
08:02Are you done getting everything off your chest?
08:04You could have made the biggest mistake of your life.
08:08You see, one year ago when I came to Sacramento to see you,
08:11you was doing nothing.
08:13Nobody wanted you around until I brought you here.
08:16I brought you here, Jacob.
08:18I put you in a position for success.
08:20I made you champion.
08:21It was all because of me!
08:23Next week, I will be in the middle of the ring with open arms.
08:27I'm willing to take you back, Jacob.
08:29But there's something I need from you.
08:31I need to hear four words from you, Jacob.
08:33I love you, Solo.
08:37Always remember, I brought you into this world, and I will take you out.
08:45You know what I mean?
08:48Point of response from Solo.
08:50Treg, can't believe me.
08:54What can I do for you?
08:55Chelsea, I need to speak with you immediately.
08:57Chelsea?
08:57Nicholas!
08:58Oh, my God.
08:59I've had an impossible time finding a flight to that one-horse town, Lexington.
09:03We're going to need to postpone my Queen of the Ring match until next week.
09:06Duff, we're not postponing anything.
09:09In fact, Alba Fire is ready for action.
09:11Alba Fire can take your place tonight.
09:13I just authorized it, and I don't really care what you have to say.
09:15Get ready, because you've got a big match.
09:18You've got Jimmy, Queen of the Ring.
09:20Nick, was there anyone talking to you?
09:21I am safe.
09:24I need Julia now.
09:25That you want to get your hands on her after what happened last week, Zelina, but look-
09:28First of all, I have been snatched harder by better.
09:32Secondly, it's not the girl running around doing sneak attacks that you've got to worry
09:35about, because if you think one little sneak attack is going to scare me, because I am
09:39the United States champion.
09:42Next week, I'm making for her face-to-face, pretend or hide for nobody.
09:47So when the smallest girl with the biggest mouth does make you look stupid, then what?
09:50We all owe Zelina for lowering the volume-
09:52No, no, no, no, no, no, Nicholas!
09:54Jay Targill!
09:58Meejin, the menace, already in ring, ready to do battle.
10:03Nia Jax!
10:08Who is the fourth member of this first round Fatal 4 week, and now she steps in.
10:14Queen Nia, at least for the time being, at least-
10:18I have enjoyed the reign of Queen Nia.
10:21Long made it!
10:22Quick to the floor with Meejin, just slamming her into the barrier.
10:26Woman of them all now, this is not a hardcore matchup.
10:29Nia into the steel step so hard that they moved about a foot.
10:33Nothing could improve the visage there is.
10:36Look at the athleticism, and look at the strength!
10:39Backbreaker against Naomi.
10:41There's no doubt about it.
10:42That Wrestlemania moment for Jade Cargill, that was special.
10:46Moody, magnificent.
10:48Piper Niven out here comes in major damage.
10:51And then the running, Senton.
10:53The outside character took herself out in the process.
10:56You get yourself another shot.
10:59Open a pathway.
11:02Easier said than done, apparently.
11:04She is!
11:05Moonsault right onto all-
11:07There is the coveted crown.
11:10The Queen of the Ring at MetLife Stadium.
11:17Oh, and look at the punishment that Jade Cargill is forced to take with a hip attack.
11:21Get out, up between yourselves.
11:23Oh, would you look at this?
11:24But now-
11:25Tornado DDT on Piper!
11:27Oh, she went for the Rana on Jade, but instead-
11:30Bomb and the kick out at two and chain.
11:32Yeah, ridiculous.
11:33Jade Cargill, but that ain't gonna help ya!
11:36Back in control.
11:37Counter that effort.
11:39Never gonna be power against this trio.
11:42Oh, no way-
11:43Whoa!
11:44Oh, wave!
11:46Senton is still working right now.
11:49Slamming down Mee-Chan.
11:50Behind our desk as Nia Jax take advantage and slam her down.
11:56Although, I don't know what happened to Jade Cargill who-
12:00For the Annihilator.
12:01Oh, and Piper Niven comes in.
12:04And these two, who were acting, all of a sudden have turned on each other right through.
12:09Piper sends Nia right through the second rope.
12:13Looking for that Piper bomb.
12:15Jade and Piper!
12:16Wow, she does it!
12:18Three, three, three, four!
12:19How strong is Jade Cargill?
12:22On base, the upstart, the newcomer, Roxanne Perez, who qualified Queen of the Rings tournament.
12:29Congratulations, Jade Cargill.
12:31Naomi is Miss Money in the Bank.
12:35We will hear from her next.
12:37It's must-watch programming.
12:40Is it ever?
12:42Naomi!
12:43Not with that kind of celebration.
12:46Not with this kind of WWE's most dangerous.
12:51Yeah, I see some of y'all looking real surprised.
12:55Real stupid.
12:56Because I told y'all I was done accepting scraps.
13:02Miss Money in the Bank.
13:05And you know what's funny?
13:06You know who was there with the briefcase to stop it?
13:09You know who bashed me in the head?
13:12Tiffany Stratton.
13:13You see, too nice, Naomi.
13:16Just let it happen.
13:17Tiffany time!
13:18And Tiffany stratton, meet your number one threat.
13:26Money in the Bank.
13:27Naomi was gonna come prowling around champ.
13:33You talk a big game, Naomi.
13:37Why don't you just do it?
13:38Why don't you just cash in and take my title?
13:41But you're really just the same old Naomi.
13:44All talk and no action.
13:48Do I look stupid to you?
13:51I'm gonna cash in when you least expect it.
13:54Bitch, you heard me.
13:55I'm going to enjoy making your life hell.
14:01Tick-tock, Tiffy.
14:02Your time is almost up.
14:04So I strongly advise you to proceed with caution.
14:10Try and fake Miss Money in the Bank all you want, Tiffany.
14:15Naya Jax.
14:16Well, Naya Jax, who is irate, now getting dropped.
14:22The Queen of the Ring first round that was won by Jade Cargill.
14:25Squash in time!
14:26It is looking for the annihilator against...
14:29Oh, wait a minute.
14:30Wait a minute.
14:31Wait a minute.
14:31Could this be a moment here?
14:34Naomi was threatening.
14:35I'm really interesting, haven't they?
14:43Team contest is scheduled for one fall.
14:47Introducing first...
14:48Motor City Machine Gun!
14:51Uncle Howdy and the Wyatt Six right after it, right into the ring.
15:06Dexter Loomis points.
15:08The SmackDown tag ranks have been six months.
15:11Respect been, I think, the Wyatt Six here.
15:14Competing here, representing the Wyatt Six.
15:18The timing of their return that we mentioned.
15:20Every tag team in their path.
15:22And you saw a shot at Wyatt Six go out there.
15:24While the Motor City...
15:26Oh!
15:27Look at Gacy springboard.
15:27Pretty as they come.
15:30The Wyatt Six.
15:31Three for a moment and then lowers that top rope just in time.
15:35Saban.
15:36And now setting themselves over the top with the cross bodies.
15:40Pitches last week in the tag division.
15:42And it's the Motors.
15:43Chris Saban.
15:45Finally, Chris Saban tagged in there.
15:47Really is that pace of his.
15:49And right now...
15:50Motor City Machine Guns look to team up.
15:52With the combination kicks.
15:54Looking for skull and bones.
15:55But instead, Loomis able to break free and get action on that top rope.
15:59Completely defenseless.
16:01On a machine gun.
16:02Left all alone in there.
16:04Oh!
16:04And the assistant.
16:05To recover enough to kick out.
16:07Enough momentum to potentially set up boot for an incoming Dexter Loomis.
16:12Chris Saban has no quit in him.
16:14Whatever he can at Dexter Loomis here.
16:17Setting him up.
16:19Here comes the facial and they deliver it.
16:21Blocking out the pain.
16:23Set to be delivered.
16:24Oh!
16:25Joe Gacy comes in.
16:26Gacy comes in.
16:28Attempt at skull and bones.
16:29Gacy feeling the threat.
16:31Oh!
16:32The massive!
16:33Welcome back!
16:34Wyatt Six!
16:37More to follow.
16:38Who would want to be in SmackDown's tag ranks with this crew around?
16:42Our next king of the ring.
16:44First round fiddle four-way.
16:46And look who's in it.
16:47Go!
16:47Go!
16:48Go!
16:48Go!
16:48Go!
16:48Go!
16:48Go!
16:48Go!
16:48Go!
16:48Go!
16:49Go!
16:49Go!
16:49Go!
16:49Go!
16:49Go!
16:49Go!
16:49Go!
16:50Go!
16:50Go!
16:50Go!
16:51Go!
16:51Go!
16:51Go!
16:52Go!
16:52Go!
16:52Go!
16:55Have you seen R-Truth?
16:57No, I haven't.
16:58Have you seen Ron Killings?
17:00Listen, man.
17:01I ain't seen either one of them.
17:02I know you're close.
17:04So do me a favor.
17:05Let him know I'm on the way to the ring right now.
17:07Tell him to meet me there.
17:08From John Cena this time.
17:21The night didn't start the way he planned for it.
17:22Shut up!
17:24Shut your mouths!
17:28There is a level of disrespect that I can tolerate.
17:33R-Truth, you just crossed some lines.
17:35T- Unto, T- Ultor, T-ус!
17:39For once I agree with you.
17:41There is a time to talk.
17:42Go!
17:46естно!
17:47C.M. PUNK!
18:10These people are tired of being disrespected.
18:13To reach the levels of disrespect
18:16that we are capable of.
18:18But for old time's sake,
18:20I'm gonna give you a chance.
18:21Maybe I'm a little bit too Obi-Wan Kenobi
18:24talking to Darth Vader.
18:25I know he's in there.
18:27Let them put you on a pedestal on your way out.
18:30Give them a happy ending!
18:32Why?
18:33I waste my time.
18:36People don't matter.
18:38This place doesn't matter.
18:41Horse racing doesn't matter!
18:43So I am going to eat crow idiots
18:46that are wearing this t-shirt.
18:48Fat chance.
18:49Okay.
18:50Now please, we'll do it your way.
18:52Let the disrespect begin.
18:54And cult of personality plays through sold-out arenas.
18:58You tell a strong man a lie to offend him.
19:01Conversely, you tell a weak man the truth.
19:05And that offends him.
19:07And here's the truth, Jon.
19:08You can't beat me.
19:12When I'm at my best, you never could.
19:15You said you're gonna ruin wrestling.
19:17I'm taking it upon myself to go ahead and save it.
19:19What was the other thing you said to me?
19:21Something about sociopathic confidence?
19:23When people like you said they didn't see it.
19:25When people like you said I didn't have it.
19:27But I'm not as confident man as you are
19:30because I will not walk out sold-out arena
19:32dressed like a toddler who just struck out a t-ball.
19:37Well, I sound like a little PG John Cena.
19:39Man, you sound like CM Punk.
19:42I won the title.
19:44I left with the title.
19:46You're trying to follow in my footsteps.
19:48You think challenging me at Night of Champions
19:51is gonna stop me?
19:52Just like old times, here's CM Punk.
19:54To make your title run interesting.
19:56To make John Cena's retirement tour palatable.
19:59Watchable.
20:00I will follow you to Mars to beat your ass.
20:03Follow you to hell.
20:06To prove that I am better than you.
20:09You are the goat that I will spit roast
20:12and sacrifice to the gods of wrestling.
20:15Who actually belong on a Mount Rushmore.
20:17Guys like Terry Funk.
20:19Bret Hart.
20:21Eddie Guerrero.
20:23Audacity to put yourself on a Mount Rushmore.
20:27You can't see me?
20:29I see through you.
20:30And I always have.
20:32And that's the truth.
20:34Oh, and speaking of the truth.
20:40He's back attacking Cena again, Wade.
20:44Of John Cena.
20:46Just like the rest of us.
20:47Where to hide now, John?
20:49What's your mindset as you look ahead towards the future?
20:55I've won money in the bank.
20:57I've cashed in and made history.
20:58I'm gonna remind everyone who Alexa Bliss is.
21:00I can get one step closer to becoming queen.
21:03There is only room for one queen in this division.
21:07Woo!
21:08Woo!
21:19Champions.
21:20Famed entrance.
21:21And now they'll meet up with a chance to advance.
21:23Man, I already got an earful from Cena earlier tonight.
21:25Now you jump him again.
21:26I'm gonna have you keep doing this on my show.
21:27What do you want me to do?
21:28Give me a match against Cena next week.
21:30You and Cena next week?
21:31Yeah.
21:32Done.
21:33I'm driving now.
21:36Fatal four-way.
21:37Out of the fire for Chelsea Green.
21:39Chelsea Green, who's live tweeting here saying sorry Lexington as she drinks a cocktail poolside
21:48somewhere.
21:49Charlotte Flair face to face is Candice LeRae.
21:51Bliss and Flair are the clear favorites.
21:54Victory in this tournament will do that in a hurry.
21:57To Charlotte Flair after WrestleMania.
21:58Offer that was not champion.
22:00I'll tell you right now, Charlotte Flair is by far the least to make friends.
22:04And use herself as failed to qualify for the Money in the Bank matchup.
22:12Chop after chop.
22:15Needed.
22:16Of course, queen of the ring.
22:18Mayor Vine championship opportunity on August 3rd.
22:22That'll take place at MetLife Stadium.
22:24That's Jade Cargill.
22:25Jade Cargill, who ended up jaded.
22:27Now the class of Charlotte Flair.
22:29Oh!
22:30Alexa Bliss!
22:31Straight back into the hump tonight.
22:33You question what kind of condition of abuse it took on Saturday.
22:37And Nakamura, are you kidding me with this?
22:41And that second wind is Alexa Bliss.
22:44Remember how she started.
22:45Those two right in the center of the ring.
22:47She's found five times in the past.
22:49Oh!
22:51Everyone, who might care?
22:53Natural selection!
22:54Could she bridge the figure eight?
22:56Bridging that figure eight!
22:58Oh!
22:59The figure eight.
23:00Well, right before everyone.
23:02Oh!
23:03Wanted to have this first round Fatal 4 weight.
23:06But instead, Nick Aldis said,
23:08Charlotte.
23:09Going for the semi-final.
23:10Spine Connect!
23:11Advance!
23:12And Charlotte off of the cover.
23:15Nobody times flag.
23:17At the top of the industry.
23:19Stealing it.
23:21Big spear by Charlotte!
23:23To advance!
23:25And somehow.
23:26It was time for Unpretty Art!
23:28Failed!
23:29Charlotte!
23:30There is the figure eight advance in the tournament.
23:34Wait a minute!
23:35And the win!
23:38Alexa Bliss!
23:42Yeah!
23:43Alba gave way, but Alexa with the sister Abigail.
23:48Look at that look.
23:49Point of the ring.
23:50Semi-finalist Alexa Bliss.
23:57You know, we can't run away from each other forever.
23:59I know.
24:00Good luck tonight.
24:01After Night of Champions, we'll see who's chasing who.
24:07Royal fan.
24:12The idea of needing to find a way to a world championship opportunity.
24:24John Cena gets a chance to go even as he goes head-to-head with R-Truth.
24:30Last time we saw Shinsuke Nakamura using the thrilling Money in the Bank.
24:34Andrade!
24:38Damian Priest!
24:41Those threats seemingly behind the big man now.
24:45Motivator on its own, but since they added that world champion.
24:48Out here with these four.
24:50Rhodes and Priest.
24:51Andrade.
24:52Fine early here.
24:53Don't risk anything unless you-
24:54Oh!
24:55Andrade and Priest right in the center of the ring of the strike.
24:59Cody had a great idea there, but in the process.
25:02Since February 7th.
25:04Andrade was not expecting this soon.
25:08Rhodes of the recently dethroned undisputed.
25:1210.
25:13We ain't warming up tonight.
25:14The stakes are too great.
25:15Oh!
25:16Nakamura!
25:17And unsurprisingly...
25:18Andrade!
25:19Moves up!
25:20Compromise position.
25:22This one.
25:23He's allowed the other three competitors at time.
25:26US champion coming straight in on Cody.
25:28Strut.
25:29You can't take that much time of Cody Rhodes.
25:31Arguably number one in this.
25:33Figure four is locked in against Nakamura.
25:36Oh!
25:37Off the top rope.
25:38Steel steps.
25:39He comes crashing down.
25:40Going up old school.
25:41Oh wow!
25:43Look at this!
25:44Look at Rhodes!
25:45Damian Priest was trying to-
25:46There's a roll!
25:47There's a roll by Andrade!
25:48Need to be asked twice to get the hell out of that-
25:50Oh!
25:51And Armour is locked in!
25:52Nakamura!
25:53Oh!
25:54This crowd's gonna go nuts.
25:55The Slim Jim table is coming out.
25:57Nakamura's gonna bring down the legs of Andrade.
26:00Oh!
26:01Oh!
26:02Oh!
26:03Right through!
26:04He went through a table some time ago.
26:07There's always someone lurking, ready to bounce!
26:09And right now-
26:10To gain his status.
26:12Right honk all by Rhodes!
26:15This audience is stuck!
26:18Setting up crossroads, but instead Nakamura!
26:22Looking for Kinshasa!
26:23Connects!
26:24Oh, he's just rolled in the back of his head.
26:27This one swinging back, forth, left, right, up!
26:30Huge career opportunity.
26:32In front of him right here comes Priest!
26:34Once again-
26:35Oh!
26:36Look at the deliver the message!
26:38This!
26:39Enough!
26:40Shinsuke Nakamura reverberating through the arena!
26:44Here comes Cody!
26:46It's Cody!
26:48Delivering the Cody cutter to get back into position!
26:52Cody Rhodes!
26:53Crossroads counter!
26:55One!
26:56Two!
26:57Three!
26:58And does it!
26:59Because we have three of our four semi-finalists.
27:03Cody!
27:04To the end!
27:05I am my kingdom!
27:07Give them what they came to see!
