00:00Jericho and Ziggler officially starting the 2013
00:07Royal Rumble and the road to WrestleMania, and here we go.
00:12The road to WrestleMania has begun.
00:15This is Chris Jericho's seventh Royal Rumble.
00:18Last year he was among the two final men before being eliminated by Sheamus.
00:24Can you imagine Jericho being hit?
00:27Jericho, remember, over top rope, both feet hit the floor, you are eliminated.
00:32Chris Jericho making sure that doesn't happen.
00:34Jericho can throw a huge monkey wrench into everybody's plans, here we go.
00:38Ziggler hanging on, lands on the apron.
00:43And he's gotta get back into the ring.
00:45Very dangerous position there for Ziggler.
00:47He's already gone over the top rope, but Jericho looking to take advantage.
00:50I don't think ten minutes ago anyone anywhere would have dreamed that Chris
00:55Jericho could be in the main event at WrestleMania this year.
00:59A thunderous chant here in Phoenix.
01:05You've never lost it, baby!
01:08Chris Jericho, how psyched does Jericho look as Ziggler is teetering on the top rope?
01:13Jericho would love to end Dolph Ziggler's Rumble plans as we await entry number three.
01:21This doesn't end well.
01:22Whoa!
01:23Superplex top rope, who's coming in three?
01:25And it's Cody Rhodes.
01:31Cody Rhodes enters his fourth Royal Rumble match.
01:35The mustache is back.
01:36And Rhodes went right after Chris Jericho and Chris Jericho.
01:40Clothesline after clothesline to Cody Rhodes, chop after chop, Jericho looks great.
01:45But Ziggler right back on Jericho, and here we go.
01:48For most of the match, it's every man for himself.
01:51But as Shawn Michaels once said, you'll see strange alliances in this matchup.
01:56Well, there's nothing strange about the alliance here.
01:59Both Cody Rhodes and Dolph Ziggler would love to eliminate, no matter what the cost,
02:05eliminate Chris Jericho.
02:06You find a way to eliminate the biggest threat.
02:08Chris Jericho is the biggest threat in there right now.
02:10Jericho.
02:11Here he may go.
02:12Trying to hang on on the top rope, Ziggler and Cody trying to eliminate him.
02:16You know, Bret Hart once said, guys, that each entrance in the Rumble changes
02:20the entire complexity of the event.
02:23Jericho's entrance did just that moments ago.
02:26And there it is, the walls of Jericho and Ziggler from behind.
02:40The key is just simply survive.
02:42You can't win the Royal Rumble until you get to the very,
02:45until all 30 people get in the ring.
02:47Man.
02:48But you can certainly lose it before that.
02:51And look at Dolph Ziggler, Chris Jericho.
02:56Oh, into the bottom rope as we await entry number four in the 2013 run.
03:02This is getting fun.
03:03This time it's flying by.
03:05And there could indeed be trouble in paradise for Jericho, Ziggler, and Rhodes.
03:15Here comes Kofi Kingston, entering his fourth Rumble.
03:19Wow!
03:20Kofi Kingston, the man who won a Slammy Award for handstanding his way around the ring,
03:25avoiding elimination last year, is taking it to Cody Rhodes.
03:29What an entrance this young man is making.
03:32Coming in like a house of fire.
03:34And Kofi went right after Cody Rhodes.
03:37Uh-oh.
03:38And Ziggler from behind.
03:39Kofi Kingston missed with Trouble in Paradise.
03:42Boy, Kofi coming in right now is exactly what Chris Jericho needed.
03:47Takes the focus off of Y2J over there for the time being.
03:51And Kofi Kingston off.
03:52Whoa!
03:53Just like a rubber band man.
03:54That is so great.
03:55And Dolph Ziggler.
03:56And there's Ziggler.
03:57Show offs staying alive momentarily.
03:59Gotta find a way to get back in.
04:00And Cody Rhodes right after Kofi.
04:01And Ziggler gets knocked to the floor, he's out.
04:03And now Jericho and Rhodes working together.
04:05Strange bed fellows are always made in the Rumble.
04:08No, Jericho trying to get Rhodes out of there.
04:10And then Rhodes going right after Jericho.
04:13Cody Rhodes in last year's Royal Rumble.
04:16What an opportunity it is for somebody.
04:18Cody Rhodes in last year's Rumble eliminated more men than anyone else.
04:21He tossed six out of last year's matchup.
04:24Jericho with the foot right underneath the face of Cody Rhodes.
04:33But you gotta get the man over that top rope.
04:36Get his feet on the floor to eliminate him.
04:38And look at this, teetering.
04:39Dolph Ziggler's in trouble.
04:41And now Cody Rhodes looking to eliminate both Dolph and Kofi as we await entry number five.
04:49Two, one.
04:56Santino.
04:59Don't blink.
05:01And you shouldn't say that about Santino Morella.
05:04Even though Santino holds the record for being eliminated in one second in a Royal Rumble match.
05:10A couple of years ago, Santino Morella was in the final two, the year Alberto Del Rio won the Rumble.
05:16And now Santino looks to eliminate Cody Rhodes and maybe Chris Jericho.
05:20Santino Morella, Jericho hanging on.
05:23Santino thinks he's won it.
05:25Santino, they gotta go all the way out and both feet have to touch the floor.
05:28And there's another 25 men that still have to enter.
05:31He's really not the brightest guy.
05:33No, no.
05:34He may not be the sharpest knife in the door, but he can still cut you.
05:37Watch, here we go.
05:38And the Cobra has come alive.
05:41Oh, man.
05:42Jericho quite the snake charmer there.
05:45I saw what you did there.
05:47And Santino tossed on the top.
05:49I told you don't blink.
05:50And the Cobra.
05:51Look at Cody Rhodes.
05:52Does that count twice?
05:53You're looking at Santino and the Cobra?
05:55Santino Morella was first eliminated.
05:58Jericho wants to have Cody Rhodes to that list.
06:00Cody hanging on for dear life and he saved himself for the time being.
06:05Rhodes and Kingston and Ziggler and Jericho remain.
06:10Well, it's not good for Kofi Kingston right now.
06:13Yeah, Kofi's in all kinds of trouble.
06:15Ziggler and Rhodes working together to try to eliminate the human yo-yo, Kofi Kingston.
06:21We are awaiting entry number six.
06:25The leg strength of Kofi Kingston.
06:27Kingston coming into play, whoa.
06:29Leg strength.
06:30And who will it be?
06:32We're a three-man team!
06:34Which member of the three-man band?
06:37Does it matter?
06:38Yeah, Drew McIntyre, the jokester, the river of the group.
06:41Blair, Scotland, Drew McIntyre.
06:44Remember, 3MB with all three members in this match,
06:47they have a 10% chance of winning the Royal Rumble match this year.
06:51Heath Slater's mom said that, but they have a 10% chance.
06:54I'm not sure these guys had that well.
06:56Jinder Mahal guaranteed that one of the three members would be victorious here at the Royal Rumble.
07:01Kofi Kingston up over the top, ran into a big boot by the former Intercontinental Champion, Drew McIntyre.
07:08The ring beginning to fill with superstars.
07:11Five in.
07:12Santino, the only to be eliminated so far.
07:15Maybe Kofi Kingston will join him.
07:17Jericho trying to eliminate both men, trying to get both Drew and Kofi over the top rope.
07:22Jericho, ever the opportunist.
07:24Meanwhile, look at the other side of the ring.
07:25Here's what you gotta do.
07:26Dolph Ziggler over the top lands on the apron.
07:28Now the show-off's gotta fight himself back into this.
07:30Dolph Ziggler's gotta understand, he's gotta be careful.
07:33He gets knocked off that apron.
07:34There he goes, get back in, Dolph.
07:36And there goes that alliance that we saw momentarily between Dolph Ziggler and Cody Rhodes.
07:42Drew McIntyre really taking it to Kofi Kingston right now.
07:51Drew McIntyre making a good showing for himself.
07:53He's a big guy.
07:54Look at Chris Jericho, look at Jericho, Jericho, Jericho.
07:56Yep.
07:57Yeah, he's dangling, he's dangling, both feet have gotta hit the floor.
08:00Referee is looking way up.
08:01Referee's right there.
08:02Yeah, Charles Robinson in a great position.
08:04As Jericho pulls himself back to the apron as we await entry number seven.
08:09Chris lives to keep fighting.
08:14And there he is, the big deal, Titus O'Neil of the Prime Time Players.
08:21Here comes your wash rag, King.
08:23You're right about that, whoa.
08:25Titus O'Neil taking it to all the participants in this Royal Rumble.
08:29Well, Titus wins the Royal Rumble match, he could buy a lot of wash rags.
08:34Not sure he would, but he could.
08:36And now Kofi Kingston, you ever thought you'd see that?
08:38Kofi and Cody trying to work together with Titus O'Neil in the part that represents his fraternity from down in Florida.
08:45You can't win unless you get to the end, Michael.
08:47So you're gonna see all kinds of crazy alliances here and people trying to make it to the end.
08:51Billions of dollars!
08:52Billions of dollars!
08:53Billions of dollars!
08:54Billions of dollars!
08:55Billions of dollars!
08:56The strength of Titus O'Neil.
08:57Yeah, just flinging Kofi Kingston around the ring.
08:59Should've flung him over the top rope while he had the chance.
09:02Talking about the Royal Rumble match, the great Harley Race, who was in the first ever in 1988, once said that you get in there and you go.
09:09There's no strategy.
09:10You stay alive!
09:11Here we go!
09:12As McIntyre's eliminated by Jericho!
09:14Jericho!
09:15There goes the hair, man.
09:16Watch it, watch it, watch it!
09:17There goes Jericho!
09:18Ziggler would love to eliminate Jericho and ruin the homecoming for Chris Jericho tonight.
09:22And now Titus O'Neil goes right after Dolph Ziggler.
09:25Dolph Ziggler hanging on!
09:27Man, man.
09:28For the moment, Ziggler's gotta get back into the ring.
09:31Notice how Ziggler has got himself draped around the rope.
09:34It's like a-
09:35That's exactly what you have to do.
09:36Using the rope like an octopus to his advantage.
09:40And we are down under ten seconds as we now await entry number eight.
09:46Three, two, one, one.
09:48I wonder how you got bumped onto the octopus at the same time when you saw Dolph hanging onto that rope.
09:52What?
09:59And there's a reason that Tony has that look.
10:01It's him!
10:02Because here comes his brother!
10:04The most bizarre superstar in history!
10:07Goldust!
10:09Team Goldie!
10:10And you guys gotta bear with me, because I gotta look back into my record book here,
10:13because I wasn't expecting this here tonight.
10:16And Goldust goes right after his brother, Cody Rhodes.
10:23That was a little Goldust from Cody.
10:33Goldust-esque.
10:34And there's the real thing!
10:36That is the real Goldust.
10:37And now I see, I'm looking now, it looks like this is Goldust's eighth Royal Rumble ever.
10:42Looking to eliminate his brother, Cody Rhodes, who barely hangs on.
10:46Goldust made his debut in the Royal Rumble, 1991.
10:49Tag teaming with his daddy, the American Dream.
10:52This is so great already.
10:55And now he's putting a whooping on his brother, Cody.
10:58Goldust chants, bringing through the US Airways center in Phoenix.
11:04Goldust unloading on Cody Rhodes.
11:07Dr. Shelby would have had a field day with him and Booker T as Book Dust.
11:11Well, you know Goldust, he's been pretty vocal on Twitter about the actions of his brother,
11:15and his brother's attitude ever since joining Damian Sandak.
11:19You might have to call in Dr. Shelby to have a little session with Goldust and Cody Rhodes about this sibling rivalry.
11:25And now Ziggler and Kingston.
11:29We now await entry number nine.
11:32I love the unpredictability of the Royal Rumble.
11:36Who's next?
11:37It is the Harvard Law School graduate, Daniel Otungga.
11:41All right, Jennifer Hudson's husband.
11:43Otungga entering his third Royal Rumble match.
11:47You know all three of us here at ringside have been a part of the Royal Rumble match.
11:53John, you've actually been in five in your career.
11:55One year, you lasted nearly 36 minutes.
11:58As Otungga goes right after Goldust.
12:00You've been in one, hadn't you, Michael?
12:01Yeah, last year.
12:02How long did you last?
12:03Almost two minutes.
12:04Did anybody last less than you?
12:05Yes.
12:06Who?
12:07Jerry the King Lawler.
12:08How long did he last?
12:09Less than a minute.
12:10You lasted longer than Jerry Lawler?
12:11Yes.
12:12Wow.
12:13Did you beat him at WrestleMania too?
12:14Yes.
12:15Hey, listen, I've stopped listening, you can stop talking.
12:19And Otungga has got Jericho pinned in the corner.
12:22David Otungga gotta be very careful.
12:24His face got rearranged in a recent match.
12:26I don't know if you noticed that.
12:27You know, Cody Rhodes was hanging out in the corner catching his breath moments ago.
12:31That's smart.
12:33Otungga going after Jericho.
12:35Jericho won the first one, Dan.
12:36Take a low hanging fruit.
12:38Hacksaw Jim Duggan who won the Royal Rumble in 1988.
12:41He once said, you get in the corner, you protect yourself, you move and hit, you stay out of harm's way.
12:46Titus.
12:47Titus O'Neil not able to do that.
12:49Whoa.
12:50There goes Goldust.
12:51Hanging on the apron is Titus.
12:52Cody Rhodes not able to eliminate his brother either.
12:55The ring is filling up with superstars.
13:00You see, Kofi Kingston has Dolph Ziggler in trouble.
13:04Number ten, we're a third of the way through, ladies and gentlemen, on the 2013 Rumble.
13:10And there he is, the Axl Rose of the three man band, Heath Slater.
13:19Who tweeted earlier this week that the Royal Rumble in his mind is nothing more than a 30 man mosh pit.
13:26So that means you follow Heath Slater?
13:28Yeah, I follow him on Twitter.
13:30You admit that.
13:32We're on air, Michael.
13:33That's what I meant.
13:34We're on air.
13:35And Heath Slater, he's unloading on Otunga.
13:38Titus and Kofi, Goldust and Ziggler, Rhodes and Jericho.
13:42Now Slater turns his attention to Goldust.
13:45At least Beyonce could have sang if she wanted to.
13:49These guys have never even sang, lip sync, anything.
13:52You mean they're totally Milli Vanilli?
13:55Totally Milli Vanilli.
13:56They're what happens when the mainstream party went to a karaoke bar.
13:59You know, there's been a number of times in this match that Ziggler's got over the top rope and landed on the apron.
14:04One of these times, his luck is gonna run out.
14:07Odds against you, the more you go over that top rope, obviously.
14:11And Jericho with a personal vendetta against Ziggler.
14:14Oh, man.
14:15Ziggler's head driven into that turnbuckle.
14:19And from there, if Jericho can just knock Ziggler to the floor, or My Ziggy, as AJ would call him.
14:26Yep.
14:27That's our pet name for him?
14:29My Ziggy.
14:30Well, ladies and gentlemen, we can tell you this.
14:35Dolph Ziggler and Chris Jericho have both lasted now 15 minutes in the Royal Rumble match since starting one and two.
14:42So, John, at some point, the time will become a factor for both these guys.
14:47All you have to do is survive, make it to the end.
14:49You can't win if you don't make it to the end.
14:51Who's entry number 11?
14:53Last year's Royal Rumble winner.
14:57Trying to become only the fourth man in history to win back-to-back Rumble matches and join the likes of a-
15:06Oh, look at this.
15:07Oh, there's cursed backbreaker to join Hogan and Michaels and Austin.
15:12Sheamus looking to join that illustrious group here tonight.
15:16Oh, man, Sheamus cleaning house.
15:19Sheamus last year won from entry number 22.
15:23Tonight he hopes to do it from entry number 11.
15:26Titus.
15:27Oh, Titus hangs on.
15:28Yeah, momentarily, perhaps.
15:30I don't know.
15:32We're about to go.
15:33Listen to this.
15:35That's how Sheamus had his best.
15:37Otunga.
15:39Oh, Titus.
15:41Eliminated.
15:43It's like pinball out here.
15:45Otunga's undefeated as a lawyer.
15:47One, two, three.
15:48I have a feeling he's about to be disbarred for this.
15:50Five, six, six, eight, nine, ten, ten.
15:57Uh-oh, uh-oh.
15:59Broke kick, thanks for coming, Otunga.
16:02We might have to suit for medical malpractice.
16:06Okay, now look at.
16:07That's Slater and Rhodes focusing on last year's Rumble winner as we await entry number 12.
16:15Four, three, two, one.
16:18I love this.
16:19You got the tie?
16:24Look out.
16:25Yes, Tensai marching to the ring.
16:29Over the years in WWE, he's been in a number of Rumble matches.
16:34This marks Rumble match number six.
16:36Well, you heard that statistic earlier about how much weight, how many superstars have competed.
16:42This is obviously the biggest man in this year's Royal Rumble so far.
16:46And you know, as the match fills up with superstars, it brings to mind a quote from Jake Roberts,
16:53who was the first person to ever eliminate a man in the Royal Rumble.
16:56He said, when the ring fills up with superstars, it gets to be so dangerous.
17:00There's so many people in such a small space.
17:03There's nowhere to go and there's nowhere to hide.
17:05Yeah, I know that.
17:10Great strategy, however.
17:12Mr. McMahon, remember the year he won?
17:14He ran all around the arena.
17:15You saying he was scared?
17:19I'm saying that it was tremendous strategy by the Boss.
17:22JBL, can you say this?
17:27Uh-uh, Ziggler and Sider trying to hang out.
17:31It's disgusting.
17:33Go ahead, bring up the fact that great men dropped Bentleys.
17:38Go ahead, Michael.
17:39They do.
17:40There you go.
17:41He's Slater teetering on the edge of the ring there with a foot in his throat.
17:47He's back in now.
17:49And now we await entry number 13 in the 2013 Royal Rumble.
17:55And it's about to get funky down in his house.
18:00Where the fuck did that go?
18:03In his first Rumble.
18:05His name is Brotus Clay.
18:08Somewhere there's a Sasquatch sequence with Toya Jackson watching their little kid in the Royal Rumble.
18:13This big old Brontosaurus.
18:17If he can ever get off all his bling, he'll enter the ring.
18:23And here comes Brotus.
18:26I'd rather have the Funkadactyls.
18:32Yeah, look at, look at, again, again Ziggler's in trouble.
18:36As Brotus goes right after Jericho.
18:38It seems like since starting number one in this match, Dolph Ziggler's been in trouble since the get-go.
18:44Look at the two big men going at it in there.
18:46Again on the apron.
18:47How unbelievable would it be at WrestleMania if Dolph Ziggler is the main event of the championship match and with Money in the Bank.
18:53He can cash in against himself.
18:55Ooh, Gold Dust flying across the ring by his brother Cody Rhodes.
18:58If you call Richard Dawson, we got a family feud.
19:01That's okay, call him anyway.
19:06And now it's Cody Rhodes on the apron of the ring.
19:11He's great when he's here.
19:14Throw it for Cody.
19:15And now Cody and his brother.
19:19Two brothers outside of an apron.
19:21Yeah, both out of the apron, both went over the top rope.
19:23Who's gonna be eliminated?
19:24Cody back into the ring.
19:26Well, lucky for Cody there.
19:27Dustin Goldust, I should say, come up on the top rope.
19:31And Goldust standing in the steel post and eliminated.
19:33Cody Rhodes has eliminated his own brother from the Royal Rumble.
19:38Is the dream smiling with this or not?
19:42This does call for Dr. Shelby.
19:44Entry number 14 on his way.
19:47From just up the I-10 in San Diego, Rey Mysterio's here.
20:01The winner of the 2006 Royal Rumble.
20:05Whoa, man.
20:06Rey Mysterio, who set a record when he entered at number two.
20:11Lasted over 62 minutes.
20:13Watch this.
20:16Rey Mysterio, I think, just delivered one six, one nine.
20:19Is that a call, a conference call?
20:23And look at Rey Mysterio up to the top rope.
20:25Rey Mysterio, what's he gonna do here?
20:27He's gonna drop the time.
20:28And speaking of time, Ziggler, Jericho, over the 20 minute mark in this year's 2013 Rumble.
20:36Rey up on the shoulders of Cody Rhodes.
20:40Mysterio knows what it's like to last.
20:43Not only number two in 2006, but he entered at number one in 2009.
20:48Rey Mysterio is fourth overall in all time minutes lasted in Royal Rumble matches in over 170 minutes.
20:56Sheamus, Brodus Clay there, and Kofi all trying to get Tensai over that top rope.
21:02That's gonna take a village to get him out of there.
21:04Yeah, Tensai, a moose, very difficult to eliminate.
21:09That is Brodus Clay.
21:11A moose?
21:15How did you describe him?
21:19A big tattooed hippo.
21:21Number 15 on his way.
21:25Who is it?
21:27And Darren Young hopes to last a bit longer than his partner Titus O'Neil did.
21:33It's his first Rumble for the other half of the Primetime Players.
21:39And look at everybody now.
21:41Ganging up on the big man who's been eliminated, Brodus Clay.
21:45Wow.
21:46See you bye, go back to the dance hall.
21:48Darren Young came in and made the difference.
21:50Look at him.
21:53Sasquatch lovers are very upset about Brodus Clay leaving.
21:56Uh-oh, Kofi Kingston trying to hang on.
21:58Here goes the other big man.
22:00Wow, did you guys feel that?
22:02Tensai's been eliminated.
22:04That was about 800 pounds of men right there thrown out of two people.
22:09Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
22:11And look at Ziggler trying to eliminate Kofi, who lands on him.
22:13What in the world?
22:14Kofi just landed on Tensai's back.
22:16Kofi's still alive.
22:17Wait a minute, Kofi's not disqualified.
22:19No, Kofi's still alive.
22:20Both feet have to hit the floor.
22:22Tensai, they gotta get Tensai out of here.
22:24Wait a minute.
22:25Kofi just got him out of there with that kick.
22:27What the hell is Kofi gonna do?
22:30He's gonna bring him in now, because Kofi's not been eliminated.
22:33But how the hell, if you Kofi Kingston, do you get back to the ring?
22:36It's impossible.
22:37He's like a bird when the world's on fire.
22:39Where do you land?
22:40What's he gonna do now?
22:42What are they used to do in Star Trek, teleport themselves?
22:46I think that's what Kofi better try to do here.
22:48Jump, Carl Lewis.
22:49Jump for it.
22:50I don't think there's anybody that's gonna beam him.
22:52He's gonna try.
22:53He's gonna jump for it.
22:54Beam him all the way over to the ring.
22:57Beam me up, Kofi.
22:58Let's take a look at it one more time.
22:59This is what happened to Kofi.
23:00He was teetering.
23:01He had to save himself by jumping all the way across.
23:04And landing on to the side.
23:05He'll take a bigger jump than beaming in Mexico City.
23:07Come on, Terry.
23:08Come on, Terry.
23:09Come on, Terry.
23:10Give him Terry.
23:11Come on, Terry.
23:12Give him Terry.
23:13Give him Terry.
23:14I don't know.
23:15Give him Terry Watson.
23:16I gotta see this.
23:17I gotta see this.
23:18I gotta see this.
23:20I gotta see this.
23:21I gotta see this.
23:22What is cool?
23:23This is gonna be good.
23:24I don't know what he's gonna do.
23:25Meanwhile, entry number 16 heading to the ring.
23:28And it's Bo Dallas.
23:30This is the young man from NXT.
23:33Who won the eight-man tournament at the Royal Rumble Fest
23:37to earn his way into the Royal Rumble match tonight.
23:40Meanwhile, high drama.
23:41High drama building.
23:43What are you doing?
23:44Kofi Kingston.
23:45This is unbelievable.
23:46Has not been eliminated.
23:47Kingston is still alive.
23:49I love it.
23:50I love it.
23:51And Kingston.
23:52And look at the referee staring Kofi down the road.
23:54Hang on.
23:55Kingston's using the chair.
23:57This is awesome.
23:58He's using the chair.
23:59This is incredible.
24:00He's using the chair like a pogo stick.
24:02I get an assist.
24:05Kofi Kingston.
24:06Give the assist to Bradshaw.
24:08That's the craziest thing I've ever seen.
24:10I can't believe it.
24:11Kofi's safe.
24:12Kofi's still in the Rumble.
24:14He is the most innovative man.
24:16I give him my chair back.
24:17In Rumble match history.
24:18See him by Darren.
24:20Darren eliminated.
24:22Kofi Kingston.
24:23Disaster kick.
24:24And after all that.
24:26No.
24:27You gotta be kidding me.
24:28After all that.
24:29Kofi Kingston.
24:30Man.
24:31Eliminated by Cody Rhodes.
24:32And in the celebration.
24:33Jameis trying to catch Cody.
24:35One of the most unique things I've ever seen in a Royal Rumble.
24:41And it only buys Kofi Kingston about another extra minute of time.
24:45Now we now await entry number 17.
24:47Five.
24:48Four.
24:49Great strategy by Kofi though.
24:50But Cody just took advantage.
24:52Hey, let's talk a little bit about Go Dallas when we get a chance.
24:54He's still in there.
24:55Here we go!
24:56Here we go!
24:57Yes!
24:58Yes!
24:59Yes!
25:00Yes!
25:01Oh my gosh!
25:02The Godfather!
25:03It can't be!
25:04I love it!
25:05He's back!
25:06He's back!
25:07The Godfather!
25:08I love it!
25:11He's back!
25:12From Vegas!
25:15He brought his wrap back!
25:17Look at this!
25:18Everyone in the-
25:19The Godfather!
25:21They're in shock!
25:22What can happen next?
25:25This is great!
25:27This is-
25:28That's my guy!
25:29One of the most entertaining characters in the history of the world wrestling entertainment,
25:35The Godfather!
25:37Godfather!
25:38He's back!
25:39This is great!
25:41And Godfather just-
25:42No!
25:43No!
25:44No!
25:45No!
25:46No!
25:47No!
25:48No!
25:49No!
25:50No!
25:51Why Ziggler?
25:52Oh, no!
25:53Why'd you do that, Ziggler?
25:54What are you doing?
25:55Godfather is in like a half dozen previous rumbles, but I don't think he ever laughed to
26:04that short.
26:05How great was it just to see The Godfather?
26:07He's still with us!
26:08He's going out in style!
26:11The WWE Universe!
26:12That's my man right there!
26:14I love The Godfather!
26:15Who doesn't love The Godfather King?
26:17Hey, whether he's eliminated or not, Godfather's gonna party tonight, we know that.
26:21When I grow up, I wanna be The Godfather.
26:23And Chris Jericho, meanwhile, who started this match at number two, still in there.
26:30Dolph Ziggler, the number one entry, still in there.
26:33Number 18 on his way in the Rumble.
26:36Three, two, one!
26:39Wade Barrett, the Intercontinental Champion, entering his third Rumble.
26:56This is one bad dude right here.
26:58The man who says that around his waist, the Intercontinental Championship means something again.
27:07Would you disagree?
27:10No, not at all.
27:11The Barrett Mirage would love to win the Rumble tonight.
27:14Put himself on the map.
27:16Wade Barrett tells you the sunshine right now, Cole, you better not disagree.
27:21I would never disagree with this man.
27:24Look at the strength of Wade Barrett, manhandling Sheamus.
27:30Said Andy Murray lost to Djokovic, so he's a Scott again, no longer a Brit.
27:35Of course, you're talking about the Australian Open.
27:39As Wade Barrett- People know what I'm talking about.
27:41Chris Jericho looked to eliminate Sheamus.
27:44Sheamus, last year's Rumble winner, looking to stay alive and become a repeat Rumble winner this year.
27:50Dolph Ziggler laid out there by Rey Mysterio.
27:56Dropkick Rey is in precarious position right now.
27:59Get back in the center of that ring.
28:01Let Godfather come back in for a do-over.
28:07Please come back, Godfather.
28:08Please come back.
28:09A do-over for Godfather.
28:10Entry number 19.
28:11There's no one on their feet here.
28:19Sitting down, sorry, I got excited.
28:24And you talk about me.
28:26I'm used to hanging out with that other guy on SmackDown.
28:29It's terrible.
28:30And he's brought me down bad.
28:32The winner of the 2008 Rumble gets ready to head to the ring, and the forces are ready.
28:38John Cena pulled everyone out last week, said he was winning the Rumble this year.
28:42And here we go, the brawl is on.
28:45Everybody wants Cena.
28:47John Cena's welcome to the Royal Rumble, the beatdown.
28:51And here comes Cena.
28:53It was a beatdown.
28:54John Cena says 2013 is his year.
28:57Look out.
28:58Slater.
28:59Cody Rhodes, Cody Rhodes.
29:03Cody Rhodes.
29:04Cody Rhodes.
29:05John Cena's on fire.
29:09Uh-oh, there goes Y2J.
29:13Jericho.
29:14There goes Y2J.
29:15Trying to hang on.
29:16And now Ziggler.
29:18I can't believe that Ziggler tried to save Jericho, but he did.
29:23Well, Cody Rhodes was in the match nearly 30 minutes.
29:27But he didn't last as he ran into the Bugsaw.
29:30Hey, what a great matchup this is.
29:31Bo Dallas, first NXT contestant to ever be in the Royal Rumble.
29:35Going against a ten-time WWE Champion, John Cena.
29:38Yeah, Bo Dallas, who's the so-called Fire and Desire from NXT.
29:43Our developmental-
29:44This is how you make a name for yourself.
29:46This would be unbelievable if he eliminated John Cena.
29:49Are you kidding me?
29:50Guys, we're two-thirds of the way through the Rumble.
29:52Who's number 20?
29:53It is Damian Sandow's first Royal Rumble match.
30:01Damian Sandow comes in and immediately goes after Bo Dallas.
30:13The ring is filling up with superstars.
30:18We can tell you this.
30:22Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
30:23Mysterio, Wade Barrett, both men hanging on.
30:26They both gotta get back in the ring.
30:27Did you see how fast Wade Barrett did that?
30:29Ray's on the top of it.
30:30The ring is on the floor, here he's out.
30:32There goes Rey.
30:33Mysterio eliminated by Barrett.
30:36Drop it down on that, 619.
30:38See ya.
30:39Entry number one, Tiglum.
30:41Entry number two, Jericho.
30:42Both men have lasted now over half an hour.
30:45Over 30 minutes in this match here tonight.
30:48Rumble 2013.
30:49Jericho, look at this.
30:50Going up to the walls of Jericho on John Cena.
31:04Oh, Chris Jericho.
31:06But he couldn't get it.
31:07Couldn't get it.
31:08Well, that's not gonna get Cena over that top rope, I can tell you that.
31:11One, two, three, one, eight.
31:14Entry 21, on his way.
31:17One, two, three.
31:19Legs strengthen John Cena, frees himself from the grip of Jericho, but
31:22he's right back in it.
31:23And going for the walls again, it's Jericho.
31:25Got it, he's got it locked in.
31:26As Daniel Bryan enters his second Rumble tonight.
31:30In 2011, he came in at number two tonight, at number 21.
31:35Earlier tonight, Daniel Bryan and Kane knocked off Damian Sandow and Cody Rhodes
31:42with the tag team titles on the line.
31:44We had a Cobra in the match earlier, now we got it going.
31:47Daniel Bryan ran after Ziggler.
31:50A former World Heavyweight Champion.
31:53Listen to this Yes chant from the universe.
31:56Wade Barrett.
31:57Daniel Bryan is leaving bodies.
32:04In his wake.
32:06The feet are flying.
32:08But you gotta get him over the top rope.
32:10And Daniel Bryan's the only man standing right now in the ring.
32:13Trying to eliminate Jericho.
32:18Daniel Bryan, Sheamus trying to aid as well.
32:22Jericho hanging on, he came in at number two.
32:25Cena's in trouble too.
32:26Jericho dangling, pulls himself back up to the apron.
32:31And John Cena, as you said, still dangling over there in that corner.
32:35And Sheamus and Daniel Bryan, who of course met at WrestleMania last year for
32:40all of 18 seconds before Sheamus beat Bryan for the world title.
32:44Entry number 22 as the familiar Cena chants fill the arena.
32:50And the United States Champion, Antonio Cesaro enters his first Royal Rumble.
33:02Earlier tonight on the pre-show, Cesaro successfully retained his title against The Miz.
33:08Cesaro says he loves America, it just needs a people transplant.
33:13Well, Antonio Cesaro said that he's going to dedicate his victory in the Rumble match to his home away from home,
33:19the United States of America.
33:21I wonder what Antonio Cesaro thinks that Tina Turner renouncing her United States citizenship and becoming a Swiss citizen.
33:30What's Slug got to do with it?
33:35Last Queen Turner, she speaks German now.
33:38And John Cena.
33:39Cesaro speaks five languages.
33:40And Cena's in trouble now with Wade Barrett.
33:43You know, guys, we were talking about Bo Dallas earlier, the NXT upstart.
33:46He's still there.
33:47Bo Dallas, Bo Dallas has lasted over ten minutes so far in this match.
33:53Well, that's a victory in itself for that young man.
33:55He's gotta be proud.
33:56Ooh, what a kick there.
34:03How unbelievable it'd be for Bo Dallas to end up the champion here, to go to the championship at WrestleMania.
34:08Well, that's the beauty of the Royal Rumble match.
34:10I mean, anything can happen.
34:11Every man for himself here tonight wants those strange alliances break away as we now await entry number 23.
34:19Hillbilly Jim once said, the name says it all, the Royal Rumble, you hooked me.
34:24And we're hooked on number 23, the Great Khali.
34:31You know, the Great Khali, as he enters his seventh Rumble match back in 2007, he eliminated seven men in one Royal Rumble match.
34:43However, he became only the first man to ever be eliminated by a diva.
34:48Beth Phoenix eliminated Great Khali one year.
34:51Does Bret Hart know this is about to be his nephew?
34:53We'll find out.
34:54Bret Hart's got an exclusive interview on WWE.com right now as Khali unloads on the superstars in the ring.
35:03Dating the Punjabi princess.
35:06Natty Hart.
35:07Natty Hart.
35:08Natty Hart.
35:09Natty Hart.
35:10Natty Hart.
35:11Natty.
35:12Natty Hart.
35:13They call her Natty.
35:14But she's not a Hart.
35:15You called her Natty Hart.
35:16Sheamus just elipsed a 20 minute, eclipse 20 minutes in the ring here tonight at the Royal Rumble match.
35:21I'm upset about this interspecies relationship.
35:23Sheamus may not make 21, as Cesaro looks to eliminate Sheamus.
35:28You've never dated outside your species.
35:30Did you just call it an interspecies relationship?
35:32Yes.
35:33What is wrong with you?
35:34You had Anvil's daughter and the Punjabi guy here.
35:37He's a Punjabi giant.
35:39If that's not an interspecies relationship, I have no idea what it is.
35:43I don't know how PETA is allowing any of that.
35:46Anyway, let's move to number 24.
35:49Don't get hot.
35:50We're at number 24 already?
35:52This is amazing.
35:53He is one of the greatest performers in Royal Rumble history.
36:01He is entering his 16th Rumble in a record setting 14th in a row for the Big Red Monster Kane.
36:09Listen to some of these records.
36:112001, 11 superstars eliminated in one match.
36:15He went to the final two that year before it was won by Austin.
36:19Kane looking to eliminate Dolph Ziggler.
36:21Can he get the show off out of the ring, dangles again.
36:24There he goes.
36:25Dolph Ziggler has survived and survived and survived and survived tonight.
36:29I think Ziggler spent more time on the apron than actually in the ring of this match.
36:33I've seen more time on the apron than my old tag team partner.
36:36You see Kane and Daniel Bryan, I thought they were gonna try to double team the great Kylie,
36:42but Kylie will get the upper hand.
36:44Well, Kane overall in his career has the third most eliminations in Royal Rumble history at 35.
36:50Look at Sheamus.
36:51Kane has been in five final fours and Sheamus looks to just survive here.
36:56Sheamus, last year's Royal Rumble winner, trying to make it back to back.
37:01Give me your take on this, Cole, right now in the ring.
37:07It would be more difficult to eliminate Kane or Kylie.
37:11Four, three, two, one.
37:15Cole's not listening.
37:16I see that.
37:17Woo, woo, woo.
37:18You know it.
37:20Well, here is the man who enters his third Rumble.
37:24He has one million Twitter followers.
37:27Are you gonna answer Jerry's question, who's gonna be harder to eliminate?
37:32At this point?
37:33You got a Hall of Famer asking you a question.
37:35I was gonna say Kylie, but he was just eliminated.
37:37Yeah, post fact, you go back in there, Kylie.
37:40And Kane's eliminated by his own partner, his own tag team partner, Daniel Bryan eliminated Kane.
37:46Boy, yeah, Dr. Shelby's a genius.
37:48Yeah, right, Michael.
37:51Man.
37:52Uh-oh.
37:56Daniel Bryan's feet have not touched.
37:58Moment of truth for Kane.
37:59Will he eliminate his partner?
38:01Will he allow Bryan to survive?
38:02Daniel Bryan's gonna put it back in.
38:04Will Kane hold the punches?
38:06Will he hold the gate?
38:08I guess you can call Kane the goat in this match.
38:23At least from Daniel Bryan's point of view.
38:26I call Kane a goat.
38:29It was a sports reference, John.
38:31I know you don't watch much of it, but anyway, look at Ziggler.
38:34Kane's a goat?
38:35Looking to be eliminated by Zack Ryder.
38:37That guy blows something and he's called a goat just like he blew it for Daniel Bryan.
38:41I mean, hello.
38:42Kane would be the goat, you moron.
38:44That's what I said.
38:45I got no use of Kane.
38:47I bet he would've opened it.
38:49Here comes entry number 26.
38:54The winner of 2009, the Viper, Randy Orton, who says I need to win tonight.
39:02Randy Orton, whoa.
39:07Randy Orton, whoa.
39:09Randy Orton exploded out of the curtain.
39:12He's definitely one of the all time Rumble competitors.
39:16Uppercut from Orton to Bo Dallas.
39:18Not sure if Bo Dallas knew what he was walking into.
39:20Randy Orton.
39:21Randy Orton, nine time WWE Champion.
39:24Is this a game young man?
39:26Yeah, you gotta give him credit, Bo Dallas hanging in there.
39:28Give all the credit in the world.
39:29He needs to get back in the ring.
39:30Randy Orton with Ziggler and Dallas.
39:32This is bad news.
39:34What?
39:35Is he gonna do this?
39:36Hell yes.
39:38A double DDT.
39:42Ryder.
39:43RKO to Woo, Woo, Woo.
39:47Oh God, Zack.
39:52And Zack Ryder, CMI, Chris Jericho, Dolph Ziggler.
39:58They started this match up the first two slots.
40:00Both have lasted now over 40 minutes in the 2013 Royal Rumble.
40:06You know, a lot of these superstars are touted before they enter the ring.
40:12You can check that out at the top right now to see what they have to say,
40:15as we now await entry number 27.
40:17And for Jinder Mahal, he enters at the lucky 27 spot.
40:24Four victories, more than any other entry spot from number 27.
40:28And he's the man who, out of his own mouth, guaranteed that one of the members
40:32of 3MB would win this year's Royal Rumble.
40:34Well, he's gotta do it on his own because Drew and Slater long gone.
40:38Look at John Cena being manhandled here by Antonio Cesaro.
40:41Cena, again hanging on.
40:43Cesaro, US Champion eliminated by Cena.
40:47Cena has been a beast.
40:49You know, as this match rolls on, we mentioned 40 minutes for Jericho and
40:59Ziggler King.
41:00I mean, what do you do if you're those guys?
41:02How do you dig down deep just to survive here?
41:04Yeah, but you gotta wonder also about Chris Jericho.
41:06Sorry, his name's King.
41:07I know his name is King.
41:09And when he asked you a question a second ago, you stood there like typical,
41:12throwing Frisbees over your head like some guy sitting down.
41:16Please, I'm talking.
41:17That's not the third time to use that in this match.
41:19No, it's the second time.
41:20As you see the superstars are filling the ring.
41:22John Cena looking to send Ziggler over the top rope.
41:25There he goes.
41:26Ziggler surviving again.
41:27But again, King, how do you keep laughing?
41:28Well, I was gonna say, as you were saying, JBL.
41:30As I was saying, thank you, King.
41:34As I was saying, you gotta wonder how Jericho is in such good ring shape.
41:38He's been off with his band Fozzy.
41:40He's been doing great work all over the world.
41:42And he comes in here, he lasts 40 minutes with some of the greatest superstars in
41:45the history of sports entertainment.
41:47Then comes number 28.
41:48Awesome.
41:49This is gonna be interesting because I received a medical update a little bit ago
41:54about The Miz during this matchup, and here he goes right after Antonio Cesaro.
41:58Miz taking the brawl to Cesaro.
42:00He's supposed to enter this Royal Rumble matchup, but he has turned his viciousness
42:04at the champion.
42:05Here's the deal on Miz.
42:06From what we understand, Miz injured his ankle during the pre-show,
42:10coming off the top rope earlier tonight in the match against Cesaro.
42:13We'll have to see if that's gonna come into play as Miz enters at number 28.
42:18I'm sure between now and then, or then and now, he went back to the trainer's room
42:22and got taped up, heavily taped, but you're right, that's not,
42:26doesn't bode well for the Miz.
42:27Whoa!
42:28Mahal's eliminated, so what did Mahal say about winning?
42:32Well, they said one of the members of 3MB would win, and he is definitely wrong.
42:36Yeah, they crashed to the bottom of the charts tonight.
42:38Barrett and Sheamus.
42:39They're not even on the charts.
42:40They don't play music.
42:41They don't even play the jukebox.
42:43This isn't a real band.
42:44Do they play the radio?
42:45No.
42:46They don't even play iTunes.
42:47This isn't a real band.
42:51There's three car wrecks on the pileup.
42:53That's all it is.
42:54Meanwhile, Wade Barrett trying to eliminate Sheamus.
42:56They've developed quite the rivalry over the past couple of months.
42:59Very physical one of that.
43:00Randy Orton turns his attention to Dolph Ziggler.
43:02Things are getting hairy.
43:03Two men left before we get to the- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
43:06Sheamus in big trouble here.
43:08This will be number 29.
43:10Who will enter at number 29?
43:12Ziggler again on the apron, but again surviving.
43:15And this is Zinkara, who's missed a couple of months with a knee injury.
43:30Zinkara returning to the Royal Rumble Max.
43:34With that innovative, unorthodox style, unloading.
43:42Zinkara at number 29.
43:44We're awaiting one man to finish out the roster for the 2013 Royal Rumble.
43:52The battle this has been.
43:55Miz in the match up still.
43:57He lasted longer than any man last year.
43:5945 minutes of Cena.
44:00Cena's in trouble.
44:01Sheamus looking to dump Cena over the top rope.
44:03John Cena hanging on the apron.
44:04He's got to get back in there.
44:06Ziggler again on the apron.
44:08Sheamus can get him out.
44:10Cena's gone.
44:11Look at Bo Dallas.
44:12Bo Dallas.
44:13Bo Dallas trying to eliminate Barrett.
44:14Cena's in trouble.
44:15Bo Dallas eliminates Wade Barrett.
44:17What?
44:18The NXT upstart.
44:19Wow, that's huge.
44:20Bo Dallas, he has been in this match over 20 minutes.
44:24What a thrill for Bo Dallas, who won a tournament yesterday to get here.
44:28An NXT tournament of eight men.
44:30Dallas the lone survivor, and he's eliminated the Intercontinental Champion.
44:34Yeah, well, in his first day here in the big time, he may have made a wrong man.
44:38His mortal enemy.
44:39Yeah, look at Sheamus now looking to eliminate Sandow.
44:42I am so surprised that Ziggler's still in there.
44:45He's been on the top rope.
44:47He's been on the bottom rope.
44:48He's been dangling off the apron, but he's still surviving.
44:51Are you more surprised that Ziggler's still in there?
44:53Or that Bo Dallas is still in there?
44:55Both, and Jericho.
44:56A lot of surprises here in this Rumble match.
44:59And now Jericho again hanging on.
45:03Jericho, look at Wade Barrett.
45:05Wade Barrett, Wade Barrett eliminating Bo Dallas.
45:09You were right, King.
45:11He made the wrong man bad.
45:12Exactly.
45:13Here we go.
45:14Here we go.
45:15Here we go.
45:16Lights out.
45:17Lights out.
45:18Come on, rookie.
45:19Get up, rookie.
45:20Totally uncalled for here.
45:21The bull hammer elbow.
45:23And this is ridiculous.
45:24Good night, rookie.
45:25No, it's not good.
45:26That young man Bo Dallas lasted over 20 minutes.
45:28He eliminated the Intercontinental Champion.
45:30Yeah, and he shouldn't have done it.
45:32And then Barrett doing that as we, wah, wah, wah.
45:37Are you ready, gentlemen?
45:38Number 30 is about to arrive.
45:40Only two men have won from number 30 in history.
45:43Cena and Undertaker.
45:45Oh, this is a game changer.
45:49Will Ryback join them?
45:52Ryback says this is a match he was made for.
45:56That he thrives on it.
45:59I will not be afraid.
46:01I will not be intimidated.
46:03And the monster, the Leviathan, Ryback.
46:07This is the last guy you want to enter number 30.
46:11He's fresh.
46:12He's strong.
46:13And look at him showing off that strength right now.
46:16Look out for the Sandow.
46:18And Damien Sandow eliminated.
46:20Uh, Sin Cara may have chosen his opponent.
46:27Just jump over the top rope, Sin Cara, it'd be easier.
46:29A bit more wisely.
46:30He's leaving smart.
46:32No, he's not.
46:33No, he's not.
46:34Oh, man, just squatting Sin Cara away.
46:36Like a nasty fly.
46:39And the power of Ryback.
46:41Oh, no.
46:42Is on full display at the Rumble.
46:45Look at Ryback from behind.
46:48Oh, look at it.
46:49Is that?
46:50Smart by Miz.
46:51Yeah, Miz trying to eliminate Ryback.
46:52Remember, they've had a bit of a history.
46:54Miz and Ryback.
46:55Miz eliminated by Ryback.
46:57We are now down to six men.
47:01Color breaker.
47:02Cena, Jericho, and Ryback.
47:06Yeah, but how you gonna get that big Ryback up?
47:07Sheamus, Orton, and Ziggler.
47:08You gotta get him on the top rope.
47:10Look at that.
47:11Look at that.
47:12Lion salt.
47:13Sheamus.
47:16And he's hanging on.
47:18Sheamus, 30 minutes in.
47:19Still in there.
47:20Still in there.
47:21Still in there.
47:22Better get back in the ring, Sheamus.
47:26Code breaker to Ziggler.
47:29Hanging on again.
47:30Smart move by Ziggler.
47:32Look at the amount of stars.
47:34This is like an all-star team going on right now.
47:36Whoa.
47:37Ziggler, Jericho.
47:39Wow.
47:40By Ziggler.
47:41Ziggler sticks it to Jericho again.
47:43We are down to five.
47:44What a great performance by Chris Jericho.
47:47Ziggler, Jericho, Ryback, Cena.
47:52And I think it's really time to give the devil his due.
47:55Dolph Ziggler starting at number one.
47:57He's still hanging in there.
47:59Chris Jericho lasted 47 minutes, 53 seconds.
48:03We are down to five.
48:04Orton and Sheamus, Ziggler, Ryback, and Cena.
48:07Coming clotheslines from Randy Orton.
48:13And Dolph Ziggler's approaching the 50-minute mark in this match.
48:16Ryback shoulder first.
48:18RKO to Ziggler.
48:20But Ziggler's still in there.
48:22Went for the RKO.
48:24Arcana Cena.
48:25Man.
48:26But you gotta get rid of him.
48:27Went for the broom kick.
48:29Arcana Sheamus, the Viper's striking.
48:32Uh-oh, Ryback not where he wants to be.
48:42Randy Orton is on fire.
48:44What a performance of the Royal Rumble Randy Orton's promote.
48:48Look at the carnage.
48:49Look at the bodies of all the superstars laid to waste by Randy Orton.
48:53One of the all-time Rumble greats.
48:55One of the all-time greats.
48:57And Randy Orton moving to that place.
49:01Randy Orton entering at number 26 still fresh.
49:04Oh, it's RKO Ryback.
49:05And now Ryback after a great performance by Orton sends the Viper home.
49:12Oh, man.
49:13We are down to four.
49:14Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
49:16Ryback, Cena, Ziggler, Sheamus.
49:19This is classic.
49:24Ziggler, who entered at number one.
49:26Sheamus looking to eliminate him.
49:28He's on the apron again.
49:29Sheamus entered at 11.
49:31Broke kick.
49:32There goes Ziggler.
49:36We are down to three.
49:38Sheamus, Ryback, and Cena.
49:44Doll, 49 minutes, 46 seconds in the Rumble.
49:47Think about this, though.
49:48Let's reset here.
49:50Sheamus, last year's Rumble winner.
49:53Cena, 2008 Rumble winner.
49:55Ryback in his first Rumble ever.
49:58What's gonna give here in the final three?
50:01This is something you're gonna tell your grandkids about.
50:04This is history of the making.
50:06Catch your breath.
50:07Here we go again.
50:08One of these three superstars is going to WrestleMania.
50:12Sheamus looking to win back to back.
50:14Wow.
50:15John Cena looking to make this his year.
50:17Ryback looking to make his career right here.
50:22And Sheamus and John Cena thinking alike.
50:25Going after Ryback.
50:26Double suplex to Ryback.
50:27Strange alliances happen.
50:31Cena and Sheamus with a long history.
50:37Sheamus once beat Cena for the WWE Championship, but they're looking back at the sign.
50:42It's all about WrestleMania 29 at MetLife Stadium in New York and New Jersey on April 7th.
50:48And now Sheamus and Cena unloading in the middle of the ring.
50:51This is the headline WrestleMania.
50:54One of these three men is going to the show.
51:00As the main event Michael.
51:05You can't see me.
51:06In the game.
51:07Ryback with a meetup close eye.
51:10You can see that.
51:11Ryback almost takes Cena's head off and now Ryback says finish it now.
51:17We're watching history guys.
51:19And it's shell shock time.
51:20Shell shock time.
51:22Stopping around the ring.
51:25Sheamus fights out.
51:26Whoa.
51:27Right back on his shoulders.
51:29White noise, white noise.
51:31White noise has engulfed the US Airways center.
51:39But how's Sheamus gonna get him over the top rope?
51:43It's not enough to beat him.
51:45You gotta get him over the top rope.
51:47Well, Sheamus, you know the wheels are turning.
51:49Sheamus knows how to win this thing.
51:50He won it last year.
51:52Guarantea, he's got strategy for this moment.
51:55The Celtic warrior is lining up.

52:20Just like them.
52:21Sheamus going for the broke kick.
52:24And the next thing he knows he's out of the Royal Rumble.
52:28Sheamus lasted 37 minutes, 24 seconds.
52:31But remember what happened in the fall.
52:34Remember the night Jon Cena sat in the middle of the ring
52:38and told Ryback it's your time.
52:41Tonight, these two men face off in the final two of the Royal Rumble match.
52:47That's not happening tonight.
52:49Tonight, if it's Ryback's time, he's gonna have to earn it.
52:52One of these two men will main event Wrestlemania.
52:57Team Team War! Team Team War! Team Team War! Team Team War!

53:35Ciana put the damage.

53:38Yeah, but if you wear him down Michael, yous still gotta get Ryback somehow
53:41on his feet.
