01:30You know, after months and months of taunting to Sammy Zane,
01:44Karrion Kross finally got what he wanted when he pushed Sammy over the edge this past Monday on Raw.
01:51So, that all this, the way you are, the way you want to be, Sammy, you're never going to be world champion.
02:05I talked to Adam Pearce.
02:17Our match is official.
02:20Oh, tick-tock.
02:28Stop it.
02:29Got him.
02:32Clearly, it's what Kross wanted.
02:35Yes, he did.
02:36And perhaps the mask has slipped on Sammy Zane.
02:39You might not like the words of the devil on your shoulder,
02:43but when the words are true, perhaps they hurt even more, Sammy.
02:48And the hatred you have inside your heart was apparent for all to see this past week at Raw.
02:55I think Karrion Kross is completely insane.
02:58Well, you know what?
02:59A lot of people believe this stuff makes sense.
03:01Let's go!
03:10Let's go!
03:11Let's go!
03:24The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
03:48Making his way to the race from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, weighing in at 212 pounds, Sammy Zay!
04:18Karrion Kross says that his main targets in WWE are liars because he hates dishonesty.
04:47Misdirection.
04:51He claims that Sammy Zayn is one of those liars.
04:54Well, he says Sammy Zayn weaponizes sympathy, which I thought was very interesting on that entrance.
05:00Look, Sammy Zayn wearing that traditional headdress here, okay, to get the people on his side.
05:06Why does he do that? Because it helps advance his own career.
05:10This is the rise, this is the misdirection that Karrion Kross has been trying to point out with regards to Sammy Zayn.
05:18He's not trying to curry favor with anyone, he's celebrating his heritage, but nonetheless, it's less, it's Sammy Zayn.
05:24I'm from England, I never walked down the aisle in a bowler hat when we were in London.
05:28You would have if they let you, and bell rings were underway. Sammy Kross, one-on-one here tonight.
05:35There's this groundswell of support that has surrounded Karrion Kross over the past couple of months, but for some reason there's many WWE fans that are back in this cycle.
05:47Oh, no, no, no. Social media has been very vocal about it. However, now you've got to prove yourself with your Karrion Kross against Sammy Zayn.
05:55Well, stop castigating the man first of all, you call him eight, psycho. That's my opinion.
06:00Okay, well, apparently, the reason there's a groundswell of support behind Karrion Kross is because certain people, and large numbers of them, actually listen to the message and agree with what he's saying.
06:12Yeah, guys like the New Day, and look how they've been acting over the past few months since they had a run in with this guy.
06:17Well, the New Day, and thousands and thousands of others.
06:26Well, you are right, the message is one thing, the demand for opportunity is another. Tonight, opportunity looks for Karrion Kross, and you have to deliver.
06:37Not quite sure, uh, taking advice and listening to the message of a psycho is a good way to live your life, but I guess some people do that.
06:48Again, a warped perspective.
06:50Is this the pace you expected this match to start at?
06:57Well, it's the goading from Karrion Kross historically, and this guy dominated NXT, let's be clear.
07:03Hasn't had the same level of success as moving to Raw or SmackDown, but he's always been a manipulator, a guy able to break people mentally, and then break them physically.
07:13Yeah, and here he's doing just that to Sami Zayn, the viciousness of Kross.
07:18And the official, official Daphne LaShawn backing Kross off, you see Scarlett barking at Sami Zayn.
07:25And now Sami fighting back.
07:34Sami is such a scrappy underdog fighter, unrivaled spirit in that ring.
07:40Well, Sami's been on this, what some may say is an obsessive quest in trying to win his first ever world championship in WWE.
07:49And that's been part of the issue for Sami Zayn, Kross has told him you're simply not good enough to win it.
07:55Shane does not believe that.
07:59Well, history would tell you, Sami hasn't been good enough to win it thus far.
08:03And I think Kross's point is, you need to bring out the hatred in your heart if you want to get to the top of the fight game.
08:10Sami Zayn!
08:14Sami Zayn!
08:15The cunning, seductive, manipulative, Scarlett, offering some words of wisdom in the ear of Karrion Kross.
08:23The modern day, Micki and Mallory.
08:27OH!
08:28Whatever those words of wisdom there, absolutely worked.
08:32And her man is back on top.
08:34And forearm dropping Zayn.
08:36and now cross looks to take over with his power
08:41sammy though going to end up on the barricade
08:44moonsault will take down karrion kross and sammy's fired up great nimble ability from sammy zane
08:52rusa you can never write this guy off and that is frustration frustration to a powerhouse
08:58like karrion kross and kross now with a smile and a space sends sammy zane across the ring with a
09:04great throw saito suplex there from kross an absolute specialist with that move yeah the
09:12doomsday saito he calls it as he uh continues the attack on zane take another look great maneuver
09:21he won an nxt championship with once upon a time and now perhaps getting back to that kind of form
09:27here at niter champions another straight forearm to sammy but there again is just
09:37the resilience of zane that never say die attitude oh
09:44and elbow well connected
09:46cross cover and sammy able to kick at one just then this plotting style by karrion kross to wear his
10:03opponent down the cage mindset that lives inside the head of karrion kross draw out the pain
10:12draw out the torture wait you got to wonder if cross actually believes in all this doomsday rhetoric
10:19or does he just like playing mind games with his opponent well in the end regardless of which one is
10:27true it's highly effective and sammy zane hasn't been his normal self from the word go tonight
10:35sammy with a couple of elbows
10:43what's sammy gonna do here with cross down to one knee oh right to the back of blow by crossing
10:49sammy now hung up dangerous position here for saying that's the point for karrion kross you called it a
10:54plot to sammy you liar plotting style earlier when cross needs to move quickly when he needs to
11:01close down that space like he did there he absolutely can't the cover sammy kicks out and
11:06i did not mean uh plotting in a negative way i mean an opportunity to slow the pace down and just beat the
11:12hell out of the opponent which he's doing now to sammy zane well that surprises me because you've been
11:16nothing but negative about carrying crossing since he walked out here this evening i just think the guys are
11:21fly short of a happy meal i mean what do you expect well scarlet doesn't agree thousands and thousands
11:28of people around the world don't agree and i'm pretty sure right now sammy zane might be adjusting his way
11:35of thinking before our eyes you realize there's been a lot of cycles over the years that have had millions
11:39of people following them right doesn't make them right
11:45that's really straight right
11:49well good point now but that does not prove that karrion crosses oh and sammy fighting back and here
11:57comes zane man sammy zane just digging down deep again but technically so good was cross covering up and
12:06blocking almost all of those shots
12:12sammy leapfrog and a close line drop cross oh that was massive from sammy zane knocking cross out of
12:19his boots there with that one did not expect that at all perhaps that rage now boiling up inside sammy zane
12:27and to be fair he looks better for it we'll just cross his point
12:31not going
12:41not going to stop at 10.
12:45sammy now measuring his man saying that ax handle right across the head of karrion cross
13:00the game really has changed before our eyes something is broken inside sammy zane
13:05and he's now in the ascendancy and defenseless is carrying cross
13:15and carrying again quickly back to his feet sammy though leapfrog rolls through
13:20caught by cross cross has got sammy in possession down goes sammy zane cover now
13:25is it enough to put him away and a kick out
13:33once again the power of carrying cross on display technique and everything with that
13:40leaping dead valley driver not quite enough to put sammy away but sammy is looking like a broken man now
13:48yeah cross could be closing in on an important victory here
13:51heard him screaming earlier at zane you're a liar you're nothing but a liar
13:58and now we're going to put sammy zane away
14:01lock in that cross jacket sammy's a go for it though and sammy went for the blue thunder bomb
14:07countered by cross
14:12oh what a throw dropping sammy right on the back of his head once again the go to that doomsday
14:18say ito wiping the brain of sammy zane and i think i know what's coming next cole could be cross hammer
14:26time paying homage to my broadcast partner
14:29this lands with a second in thought and sammy zane though able to turn it around into a blue thunder bomb
14:42the move that almost beat rand randy orton in the king of the ring semi-finals almost
14:49beat cross here tonight but another look at the doomsday saido that cross uses so effectively really
14:54his go-to move that landing is so sickening on the back of the neck and just when the killer player was
15:01about to hit sammy zane pulls it out of nowhere perhaps celebrating a smidge too soon because this
15:09carrier cross is double top
15:14sammy trying to psych himself out up get back into this match up off that blue thunder bomb
15:20really is tapping into the energy of this riyadh audience this is their man they believe in sammy
15:25zane now carrying cross just collapsing to the center of the mat this is dead weight for sammy zane
15:31it's a lot of weight carrying cross in about 280 270 oh nice job and suplex released by
15:37carrion cross and it's almost like he suckered zane in yes he did mind games once again burn out your energy
15:43lifting up this massive frame and when you think you've done it it's german suplex a clock
15:50carrion cross a well-versed in all aspects of the grappling game in fact he's a brown belt
15:57comes to judo it's a guy who can snap baseball bats with his bare arms videos online of it if you don't
16:04believe me multiple in one go sammy zane slips from behind carrying cross saying caught him
16:12the explorer into the corner i don't know if he got quite all of it but maybe enough
16:17as cross landed on the back of his head oh god not where you want to be if you're carrying cross
16:22not when sammy has momentum but for the hallouba kick cross caught him in the cross jacket and that
16:30is firmly locked in now sammy desperately reaching for those roads sammy had an opportunity cross
16:37intercepted him cross jacket in carrying cross they're going to tap out sammy or pass it out here
16:43tonight oh cutting off the oxygen supply cutting off the blood supply to the brain and now the hookster in
16:49yeah wrapped in wrapping the legs around the body of sammy zane and sammy starting to fade nowhere to
16:56go cross has got him hooked good lips are turning blue body is going limp lights are fading a matter of
17:04time now sammy zane may be out oh god his face is going purple the official daphne leshawn right there
17:12seeing if sammy taps i think he's gone he may be out here it's out
17:21and it goes down this time it's over ladies and gentlemen
17:24sammy though keeps it up and sammy's still on the fight somehow
17:29oh a quick burst of life to the mind of sammy zay but what can you do with it sammy yeah but he's got to
17:36drag this 280 pound frame of carrying cross to the bottom rope sammy about a hand's length away
17:44fingertips away now trying to get to the bottom rope cross wisely shifts his weight oh that was so
17:50good from carrying cross but is it enough and sammy's fading again and he's only a fingertip away from the
17:56bottom rope i told you i told you i told you jenny zane will force a break and perhaps that talk was a
18:05little too much for sammy to take it's broken for now sammy looks like a beaten man
18:14what's wrong with you you gotta learn to stay down
18:25oh goodness decapitation
18:28the punishment now of sammy zayn say cross hold the truth
18:49he's looking like a manager here is your winner sammy
19:13he had no interest in admitting that he was a liar
19:16he was very truthful when he said earlier today he was going to beat carrion cross at night of
19:23champions well carrion cross just stole the feet from the jaws of victory he had his man's feet
19:30but one talk too many energized whatever spirit is inside sammy zayn and sammy zayn with that flash
19:40hollover kick gets the job done
19:46sammy got caught in the cross jacket by carrion cross here we thought it was over oh man this felt like
19:52an eternity i have no idea how this wasn't the end for sammy zayn it was all but over
19:59until sammy zayn fired up got to the ropes and close line after close line in the corner
20:10made it look hold the truth like game over but one talk too many and boom right to the temple hallou the kick
