00:00Ah, but SummerSlam of that year the last time Punk defeated Cena
00:20First time in nearly 13 years these two have done battle with a championship on the line
00:25Side headlock by Cena as we start things off in this matchup. Keys to the match for Cena Wade
00:30Keys to the match for Cena as he simply has to outclass the best of all time in CM Punk
00:38Who per the eye test is in the best shape of his life. That is a tall tall task
00:45And John Boyd better figure something out real fast here
00:55Again an electric sold-out crowd tonight
01:02Goosebumps inducing and Cena and Punk haven't done anything yet
01:09People are witnessing history 14 years in the making with the roles completely reversed
01:15CM Punk in 2011 the man to have Scott with the WWE Championship
01:23Cena's stated goal this time around to do the same at the end of the retirement tour
01:29Side headlock now by Punk. Keys to Punk winning the championship
01:32Well Punk needs to simply lock in, block out the noise, focus exclusively on why he really came back to WWE
01:41There's been a ton of talk about why even from himself. He is a natural-born competitor a natural-born winner and he sees his place exclusively at the top of the mountain
01:53Something's never changed. Punk looking for a sixth world championship
01:58Been an intercontinental champion a tag team champion only man in history to win back-to-back money in the banks
02:03Of course, John Cena record setting 17 time world champion
02:11Randy Orton the only active performer that is still close at 14 nice side headlock takedown and into a
02:19Lake scissors by Cena
02:21Tell you something I found fascinating a couple of weeks ago
02:24When John Cena hit his version of a pipe-bomb promo
02:27It really felt like he'd been waiting 14 years to get that off his chest
02:31Did not appreciate being the victim in the summer of Punk
02:36And he sees tonight I suspect as his moment for vengeance
02:45Remember uh
02:47John Cena
02:49Would win the elimination chamber during the opportunity
02:52At WrestleMania and Cody Rhodes he beat CM Punk in the chamber after a stomp by Seth Rollins
03:00That was the beginning of the clues that John Cena perhaps was going to do everything
03:04He needed to do to win the championship and then of course later on in the night the alignment with the rock
03:10He would go on a controversial manner to win the championship against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania
03:15Controversy has been a part of everything john cena has done since toronto in march
03:22Yeah, I think john cena when he returned to wwe came back perhaps with the best of intentions
03:29But realized maybe over the course of time he'd lost a stat and if he really wanted to achieve his goals here
03:36And become that record-breaking 17 time world champ
03:39He needed to find some shortcuts he needed to become a different human being and boy oh boy has he done so yeah
03:47There's no doubt he's a different human being as is that man cm punk
03:56I cannot overemphasize
03:58The amount of passion that these wwe fans here in riyadh have shown us not only tonight but last night at fighting night smackdown
04:05I'm like a champions league final atmosphere here in riyadh
04:13So this is a football stadium. Yeah, I said football not soccer michael cole
04:17I said football at the top of the show incredibly impressive
04:21You're a reformed cena fanboy and a reformed football
04:25Big right hand by cena listen. I've made no bones about it
04:29I believe john cena is the greatest of all time and i've laid out my arguments why on a number of occasions
04:33I just don't like the attitude that cena's showing here, especially in his last year in wwe
04:38He's taken everything away from the fans. He's taken away the you can't see me and the hustle loyalty and respect
04:44Not allowing them to cheer what they want to cheer and john's final time here in wwe
04:50And I think he's robbed the fans of that
04:52Well adam perhaps bought that argument six months ago, but when you've soiled your legacy like john cena has
04:58John cena has fisherman suplex into a cover you can call that guy the greatest of all time anymore
05:08And there was once a man who here's a cover who is a
05:12Many believe is the greatest of all time who just happened to be the dirtiest player in the game
05:17So I don't think you can necessarily uh talk about what's personal actions that we're talking about the greatest
05:30Cena with a shoulder tackle
05:34And punk though looking for the gts and oh
05:38cena just got out of harm's way and john cena knew it was that close
05:43Running away like a scalded cat and who can blame him we know how devastating that gts is
05:49Cena's tasted it enough in the past and i'll give cena credit there a real clean turn of heels there to get out of trouble
05:58And that's classic punk
06:01Mind games
06:03I don't sweat you john
06:05What a classic punk but punk really is a career-long antagonist who is now tasked with taking down
06:142025's ultimate villain
06:17Let's make no mistake about it punk is still an antagonist. He's still got that attitude. He's got that mentality
06:25Oh look at cena trying to power punk up
06:28What's punk trying to do here?
06:31Awkward situation for both these men scene has got him in the a a position at least momentarily
06:36Pump the roll up from behind shoulders down and a kick out
06:39Cena might have lost in speed. Oh, he certainly hasn't lost in power
06:45John Cena still flying around massive weights at hard knocks south his gym
06:50In tampa florida, but just beaten to the punch on that one by cm punk
06:55The punch with a side Russian leg sweep floats right into the cover and forces john to get the shoulder up
07:07Punk knew he wasn't beating john there that was just to say hey
07:11I got your number
07:12Yeah, but I do think the longer this match goes on the more it benefits cm punk
07:17I think cm punk is shaking off a massive amount of ring rust since coming back to wwr
07:23I was highly critical of him for that epic rivalry
07:28With drew mcintyre last year has really taken punk to levels. I haven't seen from him before. Yeah
07:34There's no doubt. I agree with you totally on that point
07:39Punk again now
07:40I've seen a look like puck was going
07:43here a domino stretch perhaps so this modified octopus all maybe a
07:48Page out of aj lee's playbook. Oh indeed as a
07:53Punk delivered a couple elbows seen it now looking to power him up
07:57And down goes puck nice takedown by john into the cover and puck it won
08:03What a tweet something in the side of john cena there though interestingly enough
08:08Brief pause for seeing him but now back on the attack
08:16Is this the pace you expected from john cena absolutely this is what we've seen from him since returning this is
08:23Is historically the john cena place and when john cena controls the pace of matches does things at this speed methodically he tends to win
08:36Cena with a kick right to the face that caught pump good punks down
08:40And if you can pick up the pace against john cena you've got a much better chance but
08:45The volume and the power of those strikes just knocks the stuffing out of opponents
08:50So they quite simply cannot pick the speed up every dan anglo checking on punk again
08:56That was a a flush kick by seeing a right to the face
09:04John with a shoulder tackle
09:06Vincent cena here
09:12And will he give the wwe fans what they want
09:15Cena's not even breathing heavily
09:27And he does with a five knuckle shuffle
09:30And now measuring puck for the a.a the attitude adjustment punk slips behind
09:35And puck caught him with a heel kick
09:38Cena back to his feet puck dips underneath nice neckbreaker by puck
09:41Now you get a little classic cn punk in return we're getting the greatest hits tonight
09:47The running knee by puck caught cena flush on the jaw
09:51They've got the breach of the nose too
09:54Cena looking like a suplex dummy now
09:56And puck going to climb to the top rope cena's down in trouble
10:12Oh yeah
10:15Paying homage to the macho man flying elbow by punk and he says it's time to go night night john
10:22Absolute bullseye
10:27Look at the gts to go to sleep to win the championship
10:32Oh got caught
10:33Cena picked him out of the air
10:37Look at the stf
10:39I'm locked in a turn of speed at the right moment from john cena just when he was crucial
10:46Now puck you gotta wonder will he tap out a long way from the bottom rope
10:52I don't know if cn punk has it in him to tap out
10:57Pass out if anything and puck now going to try to turn it around and an anaconda vice
11:02On john cena shows the brilliance of cn punk while in agony
11:08While in dire straits submission now applied to cena cena's in trouble if he taps puck wins the title shoulders down
11:15That'll force a break the brains just never stop working
11:29Oh, this is incredible. This is why these are two of the greatest in history
11:34Perfectly executed elbow drop and this looked like it was going to be good night, but after the gts
11:42Was avoided an a.a from cena and a late late late kick out from punk
11:50Who is hurting in a bad way now?
11:53Yeah, cena you saw the look on his face. He smells blood
11:58Cena with puck up again looking for another attitude adjustment punk though will land on his feet kick right to the midsection
12:03Oh, and he plants cena with a ddt
12:06Yeah, punk is hurting bad here. I don't know if he's gonna be able to follow this up
12:11He's gonna try something though
12:15You know what he's gonna try way oh, yeah
12:18Punk gonna turn the tables on cena
12:20Now it's cena in trouble adding insult to injury. Can you imagine if cena taps to his own move?
12:27And cena trying to drag himself get the hand on the rope and force a break here cena trying to hang on
12:35Does he have enough left?
12:36Punk's got it cinched in good and now the break will happen
12:39punk had those hands in the perfect spot kind of blocking the vision
12:43Of john cena, which is why it took about five seconds to actually grab that rope. That's why a punk
12:49Took almost the full five seconds to break to continue the damage to cena
12:55Cena wilting in the corner propped up by the turnbuckles
12:59But if punk can move faster another running knee caught john flush again
13:03And now there's the went for the bulldog seen able to block and john now
13:08Lance punk center of the ring
13:10And punk with a kick and it was punk's opportunity
13:26Punk dips underneath went for the neck breaker cena with punk up top
13:31cena again with an a-a attitude adjustment again hooks the outside leg
13:35Puck in with a kick out
13:41And this just has to crush the spirit of john cena reversal after reversal after reversal i know you better than you know yourself
13:51And boom this one's over punk or is it not tonight not this way john
13:58Now with the 17 time world champion john cena start to get frustrated in front of a
14:05Sellout crowd at night of champions kingdom arena
14:14That is a look of panic on the eyes of john cena resilient it may be trying something
14:21But he thought he'd be home and dry at this point
14:23Now punk placed up on the top rope both of these men exhaustion setting in
14:39I cannot imagine going through what they've been through and it might be about to get worse for sean punk
14:44Yeah, two regular attitude adjustments didn't work so cena going for a big one, but punk able to block
14:50And he needed to
14:54And now punk from the top rope cross body
14:58Rolls through and still able to power punk up
15:02There's your 600 pound plus squat of john cena
15:05With a third attitude adjustment
15:11Puck kicked again you gotta be kidding me
15:14What the hell is driving sean punk this evening
15:21Oh my god
15:22Brilliant from punk
15:24Even better from john cena just wall power this deep into a
15:29Exhausting matchup
15:32A.A. Number three
15:36Punk broken but beaten no
15:40The guts of punk in this match tonight
15:45I don't know if punk has any clue what he's just done
15:49I don't know if the cogs are turning into his mind but john cena is fully aware
15:55And that is a look of resigned failure for me
16:01John has his eyes trained on the wwe championship
16:13Oh come on well it's disqualification means he keeps the title without john care
16:17What is this new cena care we know what he's talking up here
16:20The referee warning cena you'll be disqualified
16:29You think he cares this version of john cena
16:37Well the wwe fans said no john cena blinds them maybe he finally listened punk up again
16:44Now it's cm punk's turn
16:46GTS go to sleep punk can he do it
16:51Cena kicks it too
16:53Well i am baffled i am perplexed
16:57John cena had the option to go cheap as hell
17:02Get himself disqualified with a championship shot
17:06Decline and then kicks out of a gts
17:10Well maybe the fans are starting to get to him
17:14For the most part it's been overwhelming love for cena on this retirement tour
17:20Despite his actions
17:22Maybe he allowed the fans to get to him there
17:24I don't know if i'm buying that explanation after what i've seen over the past few months from john cena
17:30Maybe he's just had his bowel wrong and is making bad decisions
17:33Well he suffered the bell ringing after he dropped the title out of the ring
17:42And now a punk and cena throwing rights and paymakers at each other
17:46Puck went for the upper hand cena ducks underneath another shoulder tackle by john
18:06Cena oh no
18:08Cena inadvertently just blasted the referee dan angler see it
18:12Puck delivers a gts but there's no official
18:15Engler was knocked out of the ring with a shoulder tackle
18:18Puck has the championship won but there's no official here to count it
18:23Well two gts's in two minutes absolutely should have got the job done
18:30Dan angler referee inadvertently dropped down and out
18:37Yeah punk didn't see what happened because he ducked out of the way of the tackle and then cena just clocked the
18:42Referee who's down and out now. Yeah, that was a nasty landing the
18:46Shoulder tackle was bad enough, but the way the ref contorted through those ropes and hit the ground on the outside with the
18:53Oh, no
18:55Mr. Money in the bank Seth Rollins this is not a trusted edit
19:09Rollins cashed in to make a triple threat 10 years ago
19:13And Rollins and his crew are here
19:19Wait up you can't cash in money in the bank without a referee present and this referee is down
19:28That's a great point wait normally you'd bring an official with you
19:32So well
19:36Let's not forget the long-standing issues the long-standing hatred for Seth Rollins and Puck and with the official down outside the ring
19:45What a better opportunity for Seth Rollins to screw CM Punk tonight
19:50Remandous hatred felt over years and years maybe you've hit the nail on the head cole
19:58And the mission is simply screw over CM Punk
20:04And these big bad bruisers broad breaker
20:09Bronson Reed flanking Seth Rollins and Puck knows he's in trouble Puck knows he's outnumbered
20:16And Rollins has been waiting a long long time for this
20:34Go get him boys, big Bronson Reed broad breaker go after Puck and CM Punk trying to do all he can
20:41Avert disaster here and this is CM Punk has already been battling in this heat
20:47Against the greatest of all time arguably now breaker and Bronson Reed
20:53Down and out outside the ranks CM Punk
20:56Oh my goodness overshot both men I thought he got breaker but Bronson Reed able to take control and turn the
21:03The tie in favor of Reed and breaker
21:07Well Reed didn't go down he's too strong weight up here cole
21:10And now a Puck
21:12Planted onto and through the Arabic announce table
21:18Of course that should be a disqualification but
21:21With our referee down these boys can do whatever they want
21:24Punk is down and out breaker and Reed
21:30Celebrating Rollins is standing in the middle of the ring wait a minute
21:35Oh my god, oh my god Rollins is calling for an official
21:38Is Rollins gonna go for the heist of the century?
21:41John Cena not gonna allow it to happen
21:44Was Rollins gonna try to cash in?
21:47I'm alive now, I'm alive now
21:53You can do everything you can do
21:55Cena said not on my watch
22:04Attitude adjustment to Rollins
22:06What is going on with John Cena tonight?
22:09Breaker and Bronson Reed now
22:13Taking down Cena
22:16Well Cena it didn't have to be this way I presume
22:19They didn't come down here for you
22:22CM Punk is busted open he's beaten and battered and bruised
22:30Punk telling me he's okay as Penta comes out on the stage now
22:36What is Penta planet here? He's had his own troubles with
22:39Bronson Reed, Brons Breaker and Seth Freak and Rollins of late
22:43And Penta now and Brons Breaker going at it
22:47That's a brave or perhaps crazy man stepping up to take on these guys
22:55And Penta now
22:56Oh
23:02And Breaker though brought Breaker dumped onto osob and Penta on the stage
23:04Well, thanks for trying Penta
23:07It was noble but foolhardy
23:17Who's had an issue with Rollins and company?
23:25Sammy Zane coming up at the Zane.
23:29Zane will be crossed earlier tonight, trying to set Breaker's scrambling.
23:34Well, that has changed the game, hasn't it?
23:37Already been through one war this evening, ready for another, and pepper it, Breaker with shots.
23:43Beating the hell out of each other, now Breaker with the upper hand on Sammy Zane.
23:52Everybody!
23:54What a maniac better is Bronson Reed, all alone with a down, Zane!
24:00Oh no, God, oh my God, oh my God, Bronson Reed, looking for a tsunami, see him puff from behind, dumping Reed!
24:11Zane with a big fan!
24:13And up!
24:16330 pound AA!
24:21Well Cena and Cena Punk have basically come to one another's aid here!
24:27Well, no, they had no other choice.
24:30They didn't want Rollins to cash in, because then it would have been a triple threat.
24:34Now it's back to one-on-one.
24:37Punk and Cena had to help one another.
24:39Whatever the master plan was by Paul Heyman, it did not work.
25:14I told you something.
25:34Uh-oh.
25:38Wade, we've seen that look before, and Puck was ready.
25:41Puck was ready for a low blow.
25:45Rollins, Rollins clocking Puck with the briefcase, and that was stopped to CM Punk.
25:51It was like James Aboobah.
25:54The referee is back in.
25:56Cena, damn it, Cena, Cena steals it.
25:59Rollins is screwed.
26:01CM Punk.
26:02Here is your winner, and still, undisputed, WWE tag hit, John Cena.
26:18Wade, for two years, it has been Seth Rollins' mission statement to continually screw CM Punk.
26:30He did it in Elimination Chamber.
26:32He did it again tonight at Night of Champions.
26:35We're gonna take another one.
26:37The champion has his quest to retire.
26:43The champion continues.
26:44Meanwhile, Seth Rollins has once again caught CM Punk.
26:50You stay on and watch this.
26:52You stay on and watch this.
26:52You stay on and watch this.
26:52Now.
27:03Now.
27:12down.
