00:00:00Yes, sir, we promised you a great man in here.
00:00:03What is it here?
00:00:05Nick Andre!
00:00:06The child of Romania!
00:00:07Volcomania is running wild!
00:00:09My God, what a...
00:00:10He's just a man!
00:00:14It's not a world that's watching!
00:00:30I am the Boogie Man!
00:01:00I'm gonna get it!
00:01:02Well, you cannot start off SmackDown in any more unconventional way than with the Boogie Man!
00:01:09Michael, unconventional, is wearing jeans to a business meeting.
00:01:12This guy is a freak, and there's no other way to describe him.
00:01:18Freak!
00:01:19Where is he?
00:01:19You can't see through that thick smoking.
00:01:22There's the Boogie Man!
00:01:30Hey!
00:01:40It's...
00:01:41It's a little Boogie!
00:01:47With a little block, too!
00:01:50One ball, making his way to the lane from the bottomless pit!
00:01:58Weighing in, you want to make you see five pounds...
00:02:02The Boogie Man!
00:02:04What'd he do, Breed?
00:02:08Who, the Boogie Man?
00:02:09Yes!
00:02:10How did this happen?
00:02:12Is it not enough?
00:02:13We got one monster freak in this company.
00:02:16Now we've got one and a half.
00:02:18Right, well, he took one of his worms.
00:02:19He busted it in half.
00:02:21And there you go, a little Boogie Man!
00:02:24The Boogie Man and Teddy Long needs to leave Bristol alone and take control of this company,
00:02:31because this right here is an abomination of sports entertainment.
00:02:37Well, the Boogie Man has been highly successful here on Friday Night SmackDown.
00:02:42I didn't say he hadn't been successful!
00:02:44He beat me at the Royal Rumble two years ago.
00:02:46And he made you eat the worms!
00:02:48He's been very successful!
00:02:48And...
00:02:49And from Blackpool, England, weighing in at 240 pounds, William Riegel!
00:03:01That smoke is nutric!
00:03:05Hey, do you think William Riegel would have ever believed growing up on the streets of Blackpool, England,
00:03:10that he would be facing the worm-eating Boogie Man and, well, little Boogie Man on the end front as well?
00:03:17Do you realize what a travesty this is?
00:03:20A true blue blood, a red coat, an Englishman, a gentleman villain like Sir William Riegel is now in the ring with some lunatic that eats worms.
00:03:32Well, William Riegel and Dave Taylor, his partner, you see on the apron as well, made a tag-team matchup against Boogie Man and Kane, perhaps the most unlikely tag team in WWE history last week, and Riegel and Taylor looked absolutely horrified at the sight of the Boogie Man eating worms.
00:03:50And why wouldn't they?
00:03:52I would love to see William Riegel, that pompous Englishman, get a mouthful of worms at some point here tonight.
00:04:01What kind of xenophobe are you?
00:04:02What do you have against the English?
00:04:05Nothing at all, as Boogie Man backs William Riegel into the corner.
00:04:08Talk about contrasting styles in a matchup.
00:04:12There's nothing more contrasting than Boogie Man and William Riegel.
00:04:17Talk about contrasting to humankind.
00:04:20Boogie Man is a contrast to everything we know.
00:04:24Charles Darwin right now is turning over his grave.
00:04:27And Boogie Man using the strength to his advantage against the very proper William Riegel.
00:04:33The Boogie Man's at home on the Galapagos Islands, not in Birmingham.
00:04:37Well, no, maybe here in Alabama, too.
00:04:40And Boogie Man, collar and elbow tie-up into the side headlock on William Riegel.
00:04:45You see Dave Taylor, Riegel's partner, looking on.
00:04:48And what is that coming out of Boogie Man's mouth?
00:04:51Foam, I believe, from the worms.
00:04:55Worms have foam, I guess.
00:04:57Boogie Man, very aggressive in the early go-up.
00:05:03Oh, and a white hand caught Riegel on the chin.
00:05:08And for Dave Taylor, missed it.
00:05:09Riegel took advantage of the distraction.
00:05:13Big boot from Riegel flooring for Boogie Man.
00:05:19Whoa.
00:05:19As Boogie Man is sent into the corner.
00:05:21Wow.
00:05:26You want to know what I would have done, Matt, right there?
00:05:29You take your boot, you stick it up against the freak's head, and you mash it into the
00:05:33steel ring post.
00:05:34That's how you treat this guy.
00:05:37You can't treat him with respect.
00:05:38The guy has something out of a Johnny Weiss ruler classic.
00:05:41Johnny Weiss ruler.
00:05:431940 wants her movie star back.
00:05:46But you know what?
00:05:46Next time we try.
00:05:47Oh, yeah.
00:05:48That's about as good a comeback as you.
00:05:50You know what?
00:05:50I should be out here by myself.
00:05:52Yeah, Johnny Weiss ruler.
00:05:54You have to admit, though, John, Boogie Man is a must-see character.
00:05:58Here on SmackDown.
00:06:02What's must-see is the footage we're going to see tonight, Michael.
00:06:06Something a little more conventional in your words.
00:06:09For the first time ever on broadcast television, it is the conclusion, the controversial conclusion
00:06:15as William Riegel goes into the cover of Boogie Man who kicks out of that brutal and violent
00:06:21last man standing match from this past Sunday at Backlash.
00:06:24You know, John, I've been here for 10 years, and I cannot remember ever calling or witnessing
00:06:30a matchup like we sat through this past Sunday.
00:06:33Superlatives are used, are overused, and a lot of times by announcers trying to describe
00:06:38something ordinary and making something special out of it.
00:06:41Michael, what happened last Sunday at Backlash?
00:06:43Here's the shoulders down again.
00:06:45Kick out.
00:06:46Superlatives honestly can't describe.
00:06:49Between The Undertaker and Batista, we said it was going to be hell.
00:06:52We said it's the most brutal match the WWE does.
00:06:55That is what it was.
00:06:58Oh!
00:07:01Listen to the Boogie Man chants.
00:07:05And Boogie with the rugs and lefts taking it to Riegel.
00:07:14I don't even know how to describe the man.
00:07:17Oh, look at this!
00:07:18Riegel's in trouble!
00:07:19Boogie Man planting Riegel!
00:07:21Hooks the leg!
00:07:22And Dave Taylor!
00:07:24Who's not involved in the matchup!
00:07:26Gets involved!
00:07:29And look at!
00:07:30There went Little Boogie!
00:07:32Little Boogie Man had a handful of worms, and Dave Taylor with a kick and a hit from behind!
00:07:38What the heck?
00:07:40It's Kane!
00:07:43Boogie Man's a...
00:07:44I guess somewhat of a funnier partner, Kane, is on his way to the ring!
00:07:49Welcome to Jurassic Park!
00:07:52What?
00:07:54And Riegel and Taylor, who've had run-in with Kane over the past few weeks, what?
00:07:58Nothing to do with Kane tonight!
00:08:00And the big red machine in hot pursuit!
00:08:02Yeah, but the question is, did Kane come out here to actually save Boogie Man, or did he come out here only for Riegel and Taylor?
00:08:10It looks obvious to me!
00:08:12He doesn't care for that freak in the ring either!
00:08:14Well, ladies and gentlemen, it was one of the most brutal matches in recent memory!
00:08:22Sunday at Backlash, Last Man Standing, Undertaker vs. Batista!
00:08:27And tonight, for the first time ever on broadcast television, the exclusive footage of the conclusion of Last Man Standing!
00:08:34You will not believe what happened when Undertaker vs. Batista could not make the pen count!
00:08:40Find out tonight!
00:08:42Welcome back, everybody, to Friday Night SmackDown, and it has been a wild week in world wrestling entertainment.
00:08:50We've got to take you to back-to-back last, because this past Sunday, the ECW World Championship was on the line.
00:08:56You've always said, don't cross the balls.
00:08:58Well, the balls is now the ECW World Champion.
00:09:05I'll tell you, I'm very impressed and surprised.
00:09:08I did not think Lashley would be doing this well against these three men.
00:09:13This is it! This is it!
00:09:15Lashley on time!
00:09:17And finally, in comes the chairman, Mr. McMahon!
00:09:21Well, the referee's trying to maintain some kind of control here.
00:09:24Wait a minute, but...
00:09:25You have a championship belt right to the skull!
00:09:28Uh-oh! Uh-oh! Uh-oh!
00:09:30Powerful!
00:09:31And now the boss wants to tag!
00:09:36Lashley somehow gets that massive right shoulder up!
00:09:41Oh, and again!
00:09:42Umaga comes crashing down on Bobby Lashley!
00:09:46Now the chairman wants to come in and pick up the pieces!
00:09:48Oh, he got him!
00:09:52He got him!
00:09:53No!
00:09:54The winner of this match, a new ECW World Champion, Mr. McMahon!
00:10:02What the hell just happened?
00:10:04The ECW World Champion is Mr. McMahon?
00:10:09I want you to know it's an honor for me to be standing here in the presence of greatness.
00:10:17Now, I know your credentials.
00:10:19Three-time World Champion, WWE Hall of Famer, and a DVD that's selling like hotcakes.
00:10:25But Dream, I mean, no disrespect to you, dawg, but I just think you're just highly overqualified to be my assistant.
00:10:35Did you say assistant?
00:10:37Assistant.
00:10:37I mean, you think I'm here to be your assistant?
00:10:39I mean, what are you here for?
00:10:40No, man, I thought I was here for your job.
00:10:43Oh, you gotta get out of here now.
00:10:44Nah, man, I swear I did, man.
00:10:46That was what was going down with me.
00:10:47Well, let me lay something on you, Dream.
00:10:49Lay it on me.
00:10:49I'm not ready to get my job up.
00:10:50Not just yet.
00:10:52Well, let me lay this on you.
00:10:53I ain't ready to be nobody's assistant.
00:10:55Oh, well, I see you on that.
00:10:56All right.
00:10:57Love, man.
00:10:57Good to see you, Dream.
00:10:58Yeah.
00:11:01See you, player.
00:11:02All right.
00:11:02Church.
00:11:04Excuse me.
00:11:05MVP.
00:11:05Are you here for the interview for my assistant?
00:11:08Your assistant?
00:11:09No, I got my own assistants that have their own personal assistants.
00:11:13Okay.
00:11:13Is that the American dream?
00:11:15Yeah, that was the American dream.
00:11:16Now, what can I do for you?
00:11:17But that's what I want to talk to you about.
00:11:19I want to talk to you about my American dream, the one that was stolen from me at Backlash.
00:11:23A dream was stolen from you?
00:11:24That's right.
00:11:24Did you call it Popo?
00:11:26Teddy, you and I both know that if I didn't have the Fluid Backlash, we wouldn't even be having
00:11:31this conversation.
00:11:31Is that right?
00:11:32Instead, we'd be celebrating my United States Championship.
00:11:35So I'm going to let you know, I've been on the horn with my agent and my attorneys, plural.
00:11:41If I don't get another opportunity at the United States title, I will sit out the rest of my
00:11:46contract and collect them dollar-dollar bills.
00:11:49Well, let me lay something on you, MVP.
00:11:51Ain't going to be no sitting around collecting dollar-dollar bills and sitting out your contract,
00:11:56because tonight, you're going to earn your money, player.
00:11:59Now, let me ask you a question.
00:12:01You still want that rematch with Chris Benoit?
00:12:03You know this.
00:12:04Well, you got it.
00:12:05That's what I'm talking about, Teddy.
00:12:06Only if you win your match tonight.
00:12:11Against who?
00:12:11Well, you know, I was thinking, why don't I reacquaint you with an old friend?
00:12:17So tonight, it will be MVP, one-on-one, with King.
00:12:24Oh, come on, Teddy, man.
00:12:25Why you doing me like this, man?
00:12:27Hey, listen, player.
00:12:27Look at the bright side of it.
00:12:29The winner of this match will go on to meet Chris Benoit for the United States title.
00:12:33Teddy, that ain't right, man.
00:12:34Now, you got a personal bidet against me, man.
00:12:37Why you keep doing me like this, man?
00:12:38Brother, brother, please.
00:12:39Teddy, you're wrong, Teddy.
00:12:40You're wrong for this, man.
00:12:41Take care, man.
00:12:47Damn!
00:12:51Guess he didn't get the job.
00:12:52Who, bro?
00:12:56And now, the WWE Smack of the Night is brought to you by the auto parts experts at AutoZone.
00:13:03Get in the zone, AutoZone.
00:13:06The tag team titles are on the line in Milan, Italy.
00:13:10London and Kendrick have held on these titles for almost a year.
00:13:14And Paul London, off the apron, went for a moonsault, and he paid for it.
00:13:19Kendrick is in a lot of trouble.
00:13:21Paul London has barely moved it ringside.
00:13:24Oh, what a kick!
00:13:25Wow!
00:13:27Hook of the leg.
00:13:29The streak is over.
00:13:30Deuce and Domino, three months in the WWE, they are holding championship gold right now.
00:13:37Deuce and Domino win their first tag team title.
00:13:41Champions!
00:13:41And Paul London is still mad at 100% with those bruised rips, but he will be out here tonight to support his partner, Brian Kendrick.
00:13:54The following contest is scheduled for one fall from Olympia, Washington, weighing in at 171 pounds, Brian Kendrick.
00:14:04And London and Kendrick also looking forward to the return of the injured Ashley.
00:14:10Ashley taken out by Jillian a few weeks ago.
00:14:13Ladies and gentlemen, Friday Night Smackdown is sponsored by 28 Weeks Later, in theaters everywhere, May 11th.
00:14:22And by Spider-Man 3, the game, available now.
00:14:25And by Burger King, who remind you to have it your way.
00:14:34And making his way to the ring, from the other side of the tracks, weighing in at 240 pounds.
00:14:43It's one half of the WWE Tag Team Champions, Domino!
00:14:49Last week, Deuce defeated Brian Kendrick in a one-on-one matchup.
00:14:55Domino hopes to do the same here tonight.
00:14:58And there, John, are the new Tag Team Champions, accompanied by Deuce's girlfriend, Domino's sister, Cherry.
00:15:06Yes, on roller skates.
00:15:10It's like roof service.
00:15:11You roll her in, roll her out.
00:15:13The old APA coming out to the ring in roller skates.
00:15:19The old APA didn't even need it, Sonic, with Cherry there.
00:15:23Well, you talk about an impact, Michael.
00:15:26Deuce and Domino came into the WWE, and within just a short few months, became Tag Team Champions.
00:15:35London and Kendrick have said that they will seek to reclaim their Tag Team titles,
00:15:40once Paul London is back to 100%.
00:15:44Paul London throwing caution into the wind with that moonsault a few weeks ago,
00:15:52as you look at Deuce and Domino's Plymouth.
00:15:55Is that all just a Plymouth?
00:15:57Yeah.
00:15:57It is a mint-conditioned Plymouth.
00:16:01It is a beautiful car.
00:16:02And all you say is, their car, the Plymouth.
00:16:04I'm not a car connoisseur.
00:16:08You're not a connoisseur.
00:16:09I drive a Saturn, as Domino gets set to go one-on-one with Brian Kendrick in the matchup.
00:16:16You know, we talked about London and Kendrick holding the Tag Team titles for nearly a year, John.
00:16:22I don't drive.
00:16:23The way that they won the Tag Team titles was really the way that they lost them.
00:16:27The high-risk maneuvers, the devil-may-care attitude.
00:16:31Paul London taking that crash and burn off the apron with that moonsault really cost them the Tag Team titles.
00:16:36We said all along, Michael, these were high-acting guys.
00:16:39These guys are fun to watch.
00:16:41And we said there's a car crash waiting to happen, but we finally saw the car crash happen.
00:16:47Unfortunately, it put London out, put Kendrick in a 2-on-1 situation,
00:16:51and they end a phenomenal run as Tag Team Champions.
00:16:54Doosan Domino, the new Tag Team Champions, have only been on SmackDown for a few months,
00:16:59but they have made a mark.
00:17:00The power of Doosan Domino against the finesse of London and Kendrick.
00:17:04Great rivalry developing here on SmackDown.
00:17:07It's a great contrast in styles.
00:17:09Doosan Domino, there's nothing pretty about them.
00:17:11There's something pretty about Sherry.
00:17:12But they do, they are very effective.
00:17:16It's Sherry.
00:17:18Sherry, Sandy, Sherry.
00:17:19What?
00:17:21She's hot.
00:17:22Just look at her.
00:17:22She's on skates.
00:17:24Brian Kendrick.
00:17:26There's that cover of the last sweepstraw.
00:17:28Went for the cover, but quickly.
00:17:29Domino kicked out.
00:17:30Sandy drop-kick by the high-octane Brian Kendrick.
00:17:33And when Kendrick can kick it into a high gear,
00:17:36into thick gear like he is now,
00:17:38look out.
00:17:38But watch out.
00:17:40Here we go.
00:17:41Oh, Kendrick for the second look.
00:17:48Throwing Corson into the wind yet again.
00:17:50And that is what Kendrick and London live and die by.
00:17:54And it is what has made these guys
00:17:57loved all over everywhere they perform.
00:18:01They're fun to watch, Michael.
00:18:02But it's the same thing that goes to the tag team titles.
00:18:05And you see, this is a one-on-one matchup.
00:18:07But you saw there how the tag team ability helped Domino.
00:18:11Cherry and Deuce distracted Kendrick for just a moment,
00:18:15and it allowed Domino to take advantage.
00:18:17And you've got to wonder where Kendrick thinks he is.
00:18:20Right now, he feels like he's Gilligan.
00:18:22He's always without his partner.
00:18:23He's without Ashley.
00:18:25And the other team is at full force.
00:18:27Gilligan.
00:18:27Yes, I said Gilligan.
00:18:28Bob Dinberg.
00:18:29At least now you move to the 1960s.
00:18:31We're getting close.
00:18:33Domino delivers that knee.
00:18:34Here's the cover.
00:18:35Hooks the head.
00:18:35And Kendrick get a kick out at two.
00:18:38What about the news from general manager Peter Long moments ago
00:18:42that, yes, MVP will get another crack at Chris Benoit
00:18:45on the United States Championship.
00:18:46But MVP is going to have to beat the man tonight
00:18:49who burned him in an infernal match back in December at Armageddon.
00:18:53Right in front of us, Michael.
00:18:55We smell the flesh of MVP, Bernie.
00:18:57It was one of the sickest things I've ever seen
00:18:59in the time I've been in this business.
00:19:02They go at it again tonight.
00:19:03Kane and MVP.
00:19:04As Brian Kendrick tries to make it back to his feet,
00:19:08and he does.
00:19:09Trying to gain some leverage here with the right hands.
00:19:13For Domino.
00:19:17Right to the gut.
00:19:18Kendrick bounces off the ropes.
00:19:20Sitting into the flying elbow.
00:19:21He goes.
00:19:22And Domino showing finesse there.
00:19:24Drags Kendrick to the cover.
00:19:26Hooks the leg.
00:19:27Shoulders down.
00:19:28And a two.
00:19:29Brian Kendrick just manages to kick out.
00:19:32But Kendrick used to tag team style.
00:19:34Has no partner to tag in.
00:19:36The thing Kendrick loves to do,
00:19:38as well as London,
00:19:39is create space.
00:19:41Because that's what allows them to move fast.
00:19:42That's what allows them to fly.
00:19:44That's why they tag in.
00:19:45They tag out.
00:19:46Singles competition is much better for a guy
00:19:49who is simply smash-mouthed and effective.
00:19:52Oh!
00:19:52Brian Kendrick with a counter.
00:19:55Boot to the nose of Domino.
00:19:56Nice.
00:19:59And Brian Kendrick looking to build momentum.
00:20:02And the Domino's are falling all over the place.
00:20:05Oh!
00:20:05And Brian Kendrick delivers a big kick
00:20:08to the hamstring,
00:20:09trying to bring the bigger man down.
00:20:11Oh!
00:20:12Move!
00:20:14Kendrick flying through the air.
00:20:15Oh!
00:20:16Oh!
00:20:17Oh!
00:20:17Oh!
00:20:18Oh!
00:20:18Oh!
00:20:19Oh!
00:20:19Oh!
00:20:19Oh!
00:20:20Oh!
00:20:20Oh!
00:20:20Oh!
00:20:20Oh!
00:20:21That's plenty to watch.
00:20:22Brian Kendrick.
00:20:24Spectacular.
00:20:25Brian Kendrick flying all over the place.
00:20:28Come on, Domino.
00:20:29And Kendrick's got Murray Watson
00:20:30hits Segura to the back of the head.
00:20:33Find a fat lady.
00:20:35She's about to sing.
00:20:37Deuce.
00:20:38Deuce on the apron.
00:20:39And Paul London.
00:20:40Oh!
00:20:42A knee.
00:20:42Was it to the bad ribs?
00:20:45Not quite sure.
00:20:46Kendrick.
00:20:47Look at that slice right to Deuce out.
00:20:49Took Domino out.
00:20:50Here's the cover! Brian Kendrick! What a victory! He's got him one. Here's your winner, Brian Kendrick! And this is what they did for almost a year, Michael. When you thought they were down, when you thought you had them, they pulled one out of the hat. It's what London and Kendrick are so good at. Kendrick just did it again.
00:21:12London and Kendrick really needed this victory. They've been on a little mini skid as of late. But Brian Kendrick, spectacular to say the least.
00:21:21Paul London's hard in the right place. But Deuce took advantage of the injury. Knee right to the wrist. But watch this counter by Brian Kendrick. Look at that!
00:21:35The pictures tell the story. Hey, but it's what you gotta do. He had Deuce up on the apron to try to help his partner. London came to his rescue.
00:21:46And still to come tonight, we will show you what everyone is talking about. For the first time ever, the controversial conclusion from the last man standing match.
00:22:04Undertaker would teach to beat each other so bad that no one could answer the count of ten. Tonight, we'll show you the controversial conclusion.
00:22:14Kennedy!
00:22:25And there's Mr. Money in the Bank. Mr. Kennedy, for this past Monday on Raw, made a very rare Monday night appearance.
00:22:35And talk about not controversial. Right in front of us, Michael, is the future of sports entertainment.
00:22:46And there are three women.
00:22:47You have changed.
00:22:48How long.
00:22:49How long Carson?
00:22:50How long Carson?
00:22:52Three hundred and thirty thirty one days till WrestleMania 24.
00:23:06Three hundred and thirty one days.
00:23:09I catch this baby in.
00:23:11Baby, in 331 days until there is a new champion and his name, you know what it is?
00:23:22I do, Mr. Kennedy!
00:23:41Kennedy!
00:23:45Kennedy!
00:23:47Oh, yeah!
00:23:51Woo!
00:23:55Woo!
00:23:57Woo!
00:23:59Woo!
00:24:01Woo!
00:24:03Woo!
00:24:05Woo!
00:24:07Woo!
00:24:09One half of the World Tag Team Champions!
00:24:13Matt Hardy!
00:24:15John, what a night this is turning out to be.
00:24:18We talked about MVP versus Kane for the number one contender for the United States Championship.
00:24:23We're gonna show you the conclusion of the last man standing back for the Sunday.
00:24:28And now, Mr. Money in the Bank against one half of the World Tag Team Champions in one-on-one action.
00:24:35I got goosebumps!
00:24:37I've said all along, Matt Hardy is a main event waiting to happen.
00:24:41He has been right there for the last several years of his career.
00:24:44Well, Michael, we know one half of the WrestleMania main event in Mr. Kennedy.
00:24:50We could be looking at the other in Matt Hardy.
00:24:53Bold statement, you're damn right!
00:24:55But that's what I'm here for.
00:24:56I'm Mr. Nostradamus.
00:24:58These two men were among the eight involved in the Money in the Bank ladder match at WrestleMania.
00:25:03The matchup that Mr. Kennedy won to give him the Money in the Bank briefcase.
00:25:08And the matchup that Matt Hardy showed, he would do absolutely anything to win.
00:25:13He put his hands on Charmel.
00:25:15He made his brother jump through a ladder.
00:25:18He turned his back on everybody just to win.
00:25:21Tells you a little bit about Matt Hardy.
00:25:24Collar and elbow tie up center of the ring to the side headlock for Matt Hardy.
00:25:30Big matchup for both of these gentlemen.
00:25:32This takedown by Matt Hardy.
00:25:33I got to ask you the question, John.
00:25:35I want to ask you the question about the strategy of Mr. Kennedy.
00:25:38Are you surprised that he came out here and said that he's going to know?
00:25:41Look at this!
00:25:42Matt Hardy rolls through again.
00:25:43Are you surprised Mr. Kennedy said he's going to cash in next year's WrestleMania?
00:25:47No.
00:25:48We're down in Tampa.
00:25:49We're down in Florida.
00:25:51Orlando.
00:25:52Same thing, okay?
00:25:54I live in New York City.
00:25:55I only fly in when it's private.
00:25:57We're down there in front of me in front of 70,000 people.
00:26:00What better place to cash in Money in the Bank than right there at WrestleMania?
00:26:05Kennedy with a handful of hair.
00:26:07Matt Hardy knocking Kennedy down.
00:26:11You see the smile on the face of Hardy?
00:26:13A little frustration perhaps building for Mr. Kennedy.
00:26:16But it is an amazing opportunity for the young man Mr. Kennedy, whether you like him or you don't.
00:26:21The fact that he has a briefcase inside contains an opportunity for him to cash in on a championship opportunity whenever he wants.
00:26:28And of course, he said Monday night and again tonight that that,
00:26:32Here's the cover.
00:26:33That opportunity will take place at WrestleMania 24 next year in Orlando on the grandest stage of all.
00:26:42Matt Hardy trying to control the bigger Mr. Kennedy.
00:26:46Using legs to his advantage momentarily.
00:26:50And Mr. Kennedy right back on the attack.
00:26:53These two men have battled in the past, know each other very well, and having a very competitive matchup thus far.
00:27:00Coming up at the conclusion of this matchup, ladies and gentlemen, we will show you how Batista and Undertaker could not make the ten count at backlash with the world championship on the line.
00:27:16In one of the most amazing human performances that I have ever witnessed.
00:27:21The two men putting their bodies through everything that they could endure for the world championship.
00:27:26It was a test of human will, Michael, like you haven't seen since Shackleton.
00:27:31These two guys, you had to wonder who could put the other one down.
00:27:36They took each other out so badly, neither one answered a ten count.
00:27:40Quite a wrestling matchup developing here between Mr. Kennedy, Mr. Money in the Bank, and one after the world tag team champions, Matt Hardy.
00:27:48Matt Hardy has had an incredible few months here on SmackDown.
00:27:54Mr. Kennedy kicked right to the kidney.
00:27:57The one thing we talked about about Mr. Kennedy that makes him so dangerous, John, is when he is on offense, and he has control of the matchup, there is really no stopping him.
00:28:06All he needs is one opening, and he jumps on it.
00:28:12It's a matter of keeping clear-headed in the ring.
00:28:14It's a matter of seeing your opportunities and taking advantage of him.
00:28:18Matt Hardy explodes at the clothesline.
00:28:20That was a great way to describe Mr. Kennedy, the opportunist, as Matt Hardy cleans the clock of Kennedy yet again.
00:28:27It's an important matchup for Matt Hardy as well.
00:28:29I mean, to be able to pick up a victory and establish himself against the Mr. Money in the Bank.
00:28:34Matt Hardy had the reunification of he and his brother Jeff Hardy.
00:28:37It was like a rock concert at Backlash.
00:28:39He had everybody in the arena, in Phillips Arena in Atlanta, standing up and clapping for these guys to their crazy little music they come out to.
00:28:48But Matt Hardy wants to step up the ladder as a singles wrestler, and what better way to do it than get a win over Mr. Kennedy.
00:28:55Mr. Kennedy did not clean break, delivered the forearms right to the jaw and the gut.
00:29:02And Mr. Kennedy to the gut, blood is trickling from somewhere.
00:29:07It's Mr. Kennedy or Matt Hardy.
00:29:09And look at Mr. Kennedy, dumped over the cup rope.
00:29:13Matt Hardy is taking it to Mr. Money in the Bank.
00:29:16Can he keep rocking when we return?
00:29:19And it's Kennedy who's bloody.
00:29:27Matt Hardy with an elbow to the back of the head.
00:29:30Mr. Kennedy in trouble.
00:29:32Hook of the leg.
00:29:33Shoulders down and a kick out at one.
00:29:35Welcome back to Friday Night Smackdown.
00:29:37What a hell of a show it has been thus far.
00:29:40And Matt Hardy trying to take out Mr. Money in the Bank in this matchup.
00:29:46Oh!
00:29:47Mr. Kennedy with a blow to the back of the neck, and then driving Matt Hardy shoulder and face first to the mat.
00:29:53And Mr. Kennedy perhaps going to the cover, but no, going to work on that shoulder.
00:29:57And that's what we were talking about.
00:29:59Mr. Kennedy may have found his opening.
00:30:00Mr. Kennedy, that big clump at the back, that DDT on that left shoulder of Mr. Kennedy now going after it.
00:30:08And you're going to see an incessant Mr. Kennedy.
00:30:11Mr. Kennedy with the shoulders down and a kick out going to work down that shoulder of Matt Hardy.
00:30:15And look at this.
00:30:16You have Mr. Kennedy who's defeated seven world champions in the past 12 months.
00:30:20Matt Hardy comes out here.
00:30:21First thing he does, bust Kennedy right in the nose.
00:30:24That is what I like.
00:30:25You want to make a name for yourself in this business, you do it right there in that ring.
00:30:30Mr. Kennedy working on the shoulder as SmackDown rocked and rolls along and coming up immediately.
00:30:35Following this matchup, ladies and gentlemen, we are going to show you for the first time on broadcast television,
00:30:41the exclusive conclusion, the controversial conclusion to what happened at Backlash.
00:30:45So the last man standing matchup between the Undertaker and Batista.
00:30:49John, neither one of those men with a world championship on the line could make the 10 count.
00:30:54Never thought I would see Undertaker down for a 10 count.
00:30:57Never thought I would see Batista down.
00:30:59They destroyed themselves to try to destroy each other.
00:31:04A remarkable matchup.
00:31:06Similar to what we're having here.
00:31:07Look at this.
00:31:08Kennedy bleeding everywhere.
00:31:09Matt Hardy's shoulder hurt.
00:31:11This is why SmackDown is the premier jewel in CW network.
00:31:16And both men down center of the ring, Kennedy holding that nose.
00:31:25Your nose gets broken.
00:31:26You can't breathe.
00:31:27That blood starts getting in your mouth.
00:31:29You can't breathe.
00:31:30Watch the impact.
00:31:31The collision.
00:31:32That is wanting to make a statement.
00:31:37That is two guys wanting to be the main event.
00:31:41And a count of seven.
00:31:42Kennedy back to his feet first.
00:31:44Matchup continues.
00:31:46Mr. Kennedy sent through the second rope.
00:31:49I saw the count by referee Jimmy Cordero.
00:31:54Eerily similar to what we witnessed at Backlash on Sunday with the world championship on the line.
00:31:58However, neither man after what they went through were able to make that 10 count.
00:32:04Hardy driven, heading back first into the steps.
00:32:07And Mr. Kennedy showing the scars and wounds of what has been a physical matchup.
00:32:13Listen.
00:32:17Did you hear that?
00:32:18Mr. Kennedy into the cover looking to take up the victory.
00:32:21Matt Hardy still kicks out.
00:32:25Mr. Money in the Bank who claims he'll cash in in 331 days.
00:32:29At WrestleMania 24 is relentless on his assault.
00:32:34Mr. Money in the Bank.
00:32:39Of course.
00:32:40Mr. Kennedy just slapping around Matt Hardy.
00:32:44Snapchat there.
00:32:47Neck, shoulder area.
00:32:48Why?
00:32:50Trying to wear Hardy down.
00:32:51Hardy! Hardy! Hardy! Hardy! Hardy! 게임!
00:32:54And the Hardy chance rumbling through the arena in Birmingham!
00:32:59Shut up!
00:33:00This is important, Michael, that European headlock that Mr. Kennedy has on Matt Hardy,
00:33:06the only reversal is to slip that left arm inside between Mr. Kennedy's arms.
00:33:10That's the arm that has been hurt on Matt Hardy.
00:33:14Great strategy by Mr. Kennedy.
00:33:17Two of the bright young stars from SmackDown giving it their all in this matchup here.
00:33:25The shoulder injured by Matt Hardy.
00:33:30Wow! Right hand by Matt Hardy.
00:33:36Another right to Mr. Money in the Bank.
00:33:39Mr. Kennedy with a right.
00:33:43Blood pouring.
00:33:44Soup bones being thrown at you.
00:33:47This is what I like.
00:33:49And the man who claims he will cash in his title opportunity at WrestleMania next year,
00:33:54Mr. Money in the Bank, into the cover, a two-count and a kickdown.
00:33:57Drill simple, Michael.
00:33:59This ain't ballet.
00:34:01This is what you have to do if you want to get to the top in this business.
00:34:04And these two guys are putting on one hell of a match.
00:34:09Crossface after crossface.
00:34:13Only Mr. Kennedy almost wanted to break Matt Hardy's nose like Hardy may have done to Kennedy earlier.
00:34:18Look at this sleeper.
00:34:25You got him in that sleeper hold, that half a no-key choke, and you got those legs wrapped around.
00:34:30It's a tough counter.
00:34:33Point of the elbow, into the kidneys, into the ribs.
00:34:41Matt Hardy looks like he's near exhaustion.
00:34:43He's fighting Mr. Money in the Bank.
00:34:47Oh, and a knee!
00:34:49Did you see the knee?
00:34:51Full speed, Kennedy snapping Hardy's head back.
00:34:56And again.
00:34:59Unapologetics right in your face.
00:35:03Kennedy shoots the half, shoulders down.
00:35:06There's two, and a kickout.
00:35:07This is the Mr. Kennedy shoulder down again, and a kickout at two.
00:35:14A third cover.
00:35:15Both legs this time, and again Hardy kicks that.
00:35:18Smart.
00:35:21Watch this.
00:35:24He right across the jaw.
00:35:29That Hardy somehow, John, is hanging in this match.
00:35:31I don't know how.
00:35:33I'll tell you how.
00:35:33It's called pride.
00:35:35It's called digging deep.
00:35:36It's called not wanting to lose.
00:35:38It's called smackdown, Michael.
00:35:39And that is what you said Matt Hardy has lacked in the past.
00:35:42That is what he's lacked.
00:35:43He's cared so much about what people thought on the internet.
00:35:47About the fact he lost his girlfriend.
00:35:49And now you're seeing how good Matt Hardy can be
00:35:51when he has one thing in that mind,
00:35:54and that is winning a match.
00:35:56And believe me, Matt Hardy can be one of the best.
00:35:59Hardy went for the Bulldog.
00:36:01Kennedy countered.
00:36:03There is Mr. Money in the Bank.
00:36:04That Money in the Bank that Kennedy can cash in
00:36:07any time between now and WrestleMania.
00:36:10He says he's going to wait.
00:36:13Oh, and Matt Hardy saw Mr. Kennedy crawling toward the briefcase,
00:36:17not get out of harm's way.
00:36:19And here comes the resilient Matt Hardy.
00:36:21Hey, what a match we're watching on smackdown.
00:36:24Look at that right hand.
00:36:28Boom!
00:36:29Clothesline.
00:36:30Down the Bulldog.
00:36:32And why do you think Kennedy's climbing the briefcase?
00:36:35You automatically...
00:36:36Shoots the half.
00:36:36Here's the cover.
00:36:37Shoulders down.
00:36:38Kick out at two.
00:36:39You automatically assume he's going to cheat.
00:36:42Well, he was crawling toward a briefcase that was sitting in the corner,
00:36:45and he was staring at it.
00:36:46You don't know who he was crawling.
00:36:47I've been crawling the ropes.
00:36:49No!
00:36:49Mr. Kennedy high elbow.
00:36:51Out to the apron.
00:36:53Kennedy, who is very...
00:36:54Oh, agile.
00:36:56And he uses the ropes to his advantage.
00:36:59But Matt Hardy, a high flyer as well,
00:37:01and got hung up on the top one.
00:37:02What a great counter.
00:37:04What a great match.
00:37:07Side effect from out of nowhere.
00:37:09Pumble.
00:37:10He's going to pull it off.
00:37:11Matt Hardy's going to pull it off.
00:37:12No.
00:37:13Kick out at two and a half.
00:37:15So close for Matt Hardy.
00:37:17Mr. Kennedy, look at the jackknife cover.
00:37:28Shoulders are down.
00:37:29There's two in that, Hardy.
00:37:30Man, it's just spun out.
00:37:35We are seeing Kennedy and Hardy pull out every single thing they have in their bag of tricks
00:37:41trying to win this one.
00:37:43You don't like this, Michael.
00:37:45You just don't like competition.
00:37:46Kick after kick.
00:37:48Clothesline after clothesline.
00:37:50Hardy.
00:37:52Arm across the chest.
00:37:53He's got it.
00:37:53Hit it.
00:37:54Look at Mr. Kennedy reverses.
00:37:56Shoulders down.
00:37:57There's two.
00:37:57What a slow count.
00:37:59Slow count?
00:38:00Slow count.
00:38:02Referee Jimmy Cordares has called us right down the middle.
00:38:04Called it right down the middle.
00:38:05He's out of position.
00:38:06You run and replay back.
00:38:08Slow count.
00:38:09Matt Hardy is tarnishing a hell of a match.
00:38:12Here we go.
00:38:14Uh-oh.
00:38:14Matt Hardy.
00:38:16Hanging on to the top rope.
00:38:19This same crowd.
00:38:20Go for the twist of faith.
00:38:22Kennedy counters.
00:38:24Rolling.
00:38:25Good time.
00:38:26By Kennedy.
00:38:27The cover.
00:38:28Hook to the leg.
00:38:29Oh, and a kick out again.
00:38:30Can you believe Hardy kicked out?
00:38:34Kennedy can't believe it.
00:38:37Talk about deja vu all over again.
00:38:40That is the exact counter that Hardy did to Kennedy just a few months ago on SmackDown.
00:38:46Kennedy just countered the counter.
00:38:48And look at Kennedy going to the top rope measuring Matt Hardy.
00:38:52Ball game.
00:38:53Going for the King Kong bomb.
00:38:56Nobody home.
00:38:57Knees to the back of the neck.
00:39:00And Matt Hardy could pull off the victory.
00:39:03Here's the cover.
00:39:04What a big win.
00:39:05What a big win.
00:39:05And a kick out again.
00:39:13Unbelievable.
00:39:14These two guys have gone deep, deep in the well.
00:39:20Play drop.
00:39:21Turn out the lights.
00:39:22Matt Hardy, if he can somehow pull himself toward a cover.
00:39:28Kennedy doesn't know where he is.
00:39:29Hook to the leg.
00:39:30Referee's in position.
00:39:32A two and a half.
00:39:33Cut again.
00:39:33Wow.
00:39:36I'm not sure what these great fans in Birmingham, Alabama did to deserve this, Michael.
00:39:41But they are watching one hell of a match.
00:39:46Matt Hardy going for the twist of faith.
00:39:49Kennedy countered.
00:39:51Referee ducked.
00:39:53Kennedy kicked to the midsection.
00:39:56Counter after counter.
00:39:59Twist the knife.
00:40:01You got it.
00:40:01What a match.
00:40:02Put it in the books.
00:40:03What a match.
00:40:04The cover.
00:40:05Matt Hardy with a huge victory.
00:40:08Ladies and gentlemen, what a matchup.
00:40:11Here's your winner.
00:40:13Matt Hardy.
00:40:15I have said in the last year, Matt Hardy is the main event waiting to happen.
00:40:19We know one half of the main event at WrestleMania 24.
00:40:22It is Mr. Kennedy.
00:40:24He was just defeated by this young man from North Tagalaki, Matt Hardy.
00:40:30In a hell of a performance.
00:40:33Perhaps the performance of Matt Hardy's career.
00:40:37Matt Hardy has defeated Mr. Money in the Bank.
00:40:41This is huge.
00:40:42This is huge.
00:40:43Huge.
00:40:45What a match.
00:40:46Matt Hardy with a huge victory tonight.
00:40:50Sometimes life, Michael, you just sit back and think, my God, I'm glad to have watched this.
00:40:56Look at this.
00:40:57It may have been the turning point.
00:41:00Knees to the back of the neck.
00:41:02Counter after counter after counter.
00:41:05And finally, Matt Hardy, from out of nowhere, would deliver the twist of face and pick up a huge victory over Mr. Money in the Bank.
00:41:16John, we're only halfway through.
00:41:23And guess what's coming up next?
00:41:26I have been asked many times in my career, Michael, do I miss this business?
00:41:30You see a match like this, how can you not?
00:41:33The greatest business in the world.
00:41:36That was a hell of a match.
00:41:37And what about the match-up we've got the privilege to call on Sunday night at Backlash.
00:41:42Last Man Standing, Undertaker versus Batista for the World Championship.
00:41:48Right now, for the first time ever, the exclusive, controversial conclusion of that hellacious match-up.
00:41:56The following contest is the Last Man Standing match.
00:42:03And it is for the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:42:07How do you keep either one of these men down for a full ten-count?
00:42:13This is the Last Man Standing match.
00:42:16All that really matters is a pair of fists and a bucket of guts.
00:42:19Because all this is about is simple desire.
00:42:25One of these men will not make the ten-count.
00:42:32No!
00:42:33Oh, my Lord!
00:42:35Oh!
00:42:35A count of nine!
00:42:41The animal's up!
00:42:42The animal's up!
00:42:43And Batista has made the ten-count!
00:42:45Oh, my Lord!
00:42:47Batista, from out of nowhere, with an unbelievable spear!
00:42:52The Batista bomb from the corner!
00:42:54Now that!
00:42:56Hey!
00:42:58Oh!
00:42:58Back to his feet at nine-and-a-half!
00:43:03And Undertaker making the sign that this one is over.
00:43:06Going for the two-stone final driver!
00:43:10Forget about it!
00:43:12Again, he makes it back to his feet!
00:43:15These two guys have hit each other with everything in their arsenal.
00:43:19What the hell is he going to do here?
00:43:23A spear!
00:43:24A spear!
00:43:29Hold it!
00:43:34It's an ERG, man!
00:43:36This count doesn't even matter.
00:43:40These two guys are in movement, Michael.
00:43:46Get it!
00:43:47Get it!
00:43:48We have seen two guys take each other as far as they can go.
00:43:54After hearing the overwhelming response from all of our WWE fans,
00:44:06I have decided, by popular demand,
00:44:09that next week, right here on Friday Night SmackDown,
00:44:12there's going to be a decisive rematch
00:44:16for the World Heavyweight Championship
00:44:19between Batista and The Undertaker.
00:44:24And this match will take place
00:44:26inside a 15-foot-high steel cage.
00:44:42Hi.
00:44:43Hi, Maryse.
00:44:45And I'm glad you could join me
00:44:47for more Friday Night SmackDown.
00:44:52Yeah!
00:44:53Woo-hoo!
00:44:56Tell me!
00:44:56At home in Birmingham!
00:44:57You just didn't see one of the sexiest women in the world.
00:45:02You cheered for Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:45:04Oh, my!
00:45:05I picked up from my hound all the evening.
00:45:08How unbelievable this, Maryse.
00:45:12Following contest this thing, no four.
00:45:13One ball in the ring from Osdell, Georgia.
00:45:16Weigh in at 200 pounds.
00:45:19Jimmy Wang!
00:45:21Yeah!
00:45:21Yee-haw!
00:45:22Shut up.
00:45:24Bring back Maryse.
00:45:25I'm surprised you're still on commentary.
00:45:31Oh, man.
00:45:34Look at Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:45:36Listen!
00:45:37Listen!
00:45:37It's hot!
00:45:38Give it to me!
00:45:39Give it to me!
00:45:40Give it to me!
00:45:40Give it to me!
00:45:40Give it to me!
00:45:41And from Raleigh, North Carolina, weighing in at 250 pounds, Gregory Hill!
00:45:48So, Gregory Hill is going to go one-on-one with Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:45:51And ladies and gentlemen, just unbelievable breaking news from moments ago from General Manager
00:45:56Theodore Longman, right here next week on SmackDown for Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, John.
00:46:01We're going to have the rematch.
00:46:02The Undertaker and Batista for the world championship in a 15-foot-high steel cage.
00:46:08These two huge athletes almost destroyed each other in backlash.
00:46:13And just within two weeks of that.
00:46:16Now, look at it.
00:46:17Batista's got a bad hamstring.
00:46:19Undertaker's got a bad arm.
00:46:20They're going to face each other in a steel cage where neither one can get out.
00:46:25And, Michael, I'm not sure either one really wants to.
00:46:28We are going to see a winner and a loser next Friday night right here on SmackDown.
00:46:35It doesn't get any bigger than that.
00:46:37You saw moments ago what Batista and The Undertaker put themselves through in a last-man-standing match at Backlash.
00:46:43Can you imagine what it's going to be like inside the confines of a steel cage, John?
00:46:49I've been in a steel cage, Michael, with both these guys.
00:46:52It is nothing pretty.
00:46:55These two guys who are at the top of their game right now, who have created a rivalry that has been unsurpassed in sports entertainment,
00:47:04are going to be stuck together inside a steel cage.
00:47:08Cruiserweight matchup.
00:47:09Jimmy Wayne Yang, former Cruiserweight champion Gregory Helms, who held that title for over a year.
00:47:14Nice arm drag takedown by Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:47:17The longest reigning champion in SmackDown history.
00:47:22Eclipsed in Denmark.
00:47:23Gregory Helms, that is.
00:47:25That's what I'm talking about.
00:47:26Current Cruiserweight champion, Chavo Guerrero.
00:47:30And the matchup we still haven't seen is Helms and Guerrero.
00:47:34What a matchup that could be.
00:47:36Up over the top goes Gregory Helms on drag takedown.
00:47:40Helms and Chavo have been tag team partners in recent weeks.
00:47:45Successful tag team as well.
00:47:48Jimmy Wayne Yang, great athlete in his own right.
00:47:51Out, Helms, what do you say?
00:47:53Out, what do you say?
00:47:55Still to come later on tonight, John, here on Friday Night SmackDown.
00:47:59It's about determining who the number one contender is going to be for the United States Championship.
00:48:05MVP one-on-one with a man who burned him in his first match back in December.
00:48:11Kane.
00:48:12And what we got to realize this, Michael, is Chris Benoit is waiting in the wings.
00:48:17MVP says he wants Chris Benoit.
00:48:20You have a mountain between him and Chris Benoit and Kane.
00:48:26Kane wins this last.
00:48:28You have Kane going for the United States Championship.
00:48:32Keep it on the inside.
00:48:33Gregory Helms sending Jimmy Wayne Yang back into the ring.
00:48:36Here's the cover.
00:48:37You got it.
00:48:37One and a half by Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:48:42How about it, Jimmy?
00:48:43What do you say?
00:48:44Helms with another leg.
00:48:45What do you say?
00:48:46How about it?
00:48:46He's a stripper over on his belly.
00:48:47I thought maybe perhaps it was a crab.
00:48:50How about it?
00:48:50What do you say?
00:48:51He uses his move right into the side of the head.
00:48:55Knee to the spine.
00:48:55I'm breaking it in half.
00:48:58Gregory Helms held that SmackDown Cruiserweight Championship longer than anybody in the history
00:49:04that goes away for this very reason.
00:49:06He is a simple, ground-and-pound guy.
00:49:12Break by Gregory Helms.
00:49:18Suplex by Helms.
00:49:19Crawls toward the cover.
00:49:20Instead continuing to wear down Jimmy Wayne Yang, SmackDown's resident redneck.
00:49:30Resident redneck.
00:49:32A lot of rednecks in Alabama.
00:49:36None look like Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:49:39No.
00:49:40I'm looking around.
00:49:41No, I don't live here.
00:49:42I'm in New York City.
00:49:43Knee to the back off the backbreaker.
00:49:45Cover hook to the leg.
00:49:46Kick out.
00:49:47Which I'm going back to after the show.
00:49:48Hey, open up the hand here.
00:49:54Open it up.
00:49:55Referee saying open up those hands.
00:49:57It's illegal to have a closed fist, which Helms delivered to the jaw.
00:50:01But a closed fist buckle is completely legal in a steel cage match.
00:50:06And that is what we're going to see next week.
00:50:09You talk about big.
00:50:11It's a trilogy that we haven't seen in sports entertainment.
00:50:14And we're going to see the final match next week between Undertaker and Batista.
00:50:19And developing into quite a rivalry as Jimmy Wayne Yang takes it to Gregory Helms, Undertaker, and Batista.
00:50:24You know the rules in the steel cage match as well, John.
00:50:27Here's the cover.
00:50:27Hook to the leg and a kick out.
00:50:29You can win by pinfalls or submissions or escaping the cage.
00:50:35Whoever accomplishes one of those things will be the world champion.
00:50:38These two guys hadn't exactly shown the proclivity to want to escape a cage match.
00:50:45Cover by Helms.
00:50:45Hooks the leg.
00:50:46Shoulders down.
00:50:47Jimmy Wayne Yang kicks out at two.
00:50:50Jimmy Wayne Yang, typical Alabamian.
00:50:53You know, Birmingham's the number four most polluted city in the country.
00:50:56Really?
00:50:57Yes.
00:50:58Number four.
00:50:59That's where we are.
00:51:01Great city, though.
00:51:02Birmingham's been a great host for Friday night standing out.
00:51:06Gregory Helms, what's he going to do here?
00:51:08Top rope.
00:51:09Jimmy Wayne Yang in trouble.
00:51:12Hanging on to counter.
00:51:17Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:51:19Oh!
00:51:20Standing to the right hand.
00:51:21And Gregory Helms is determined.
00:51:23One, two, three, four.
00:51:24You do something.
00:51:26Perhaps a superplex to...
00:51:27Oh, what a count.
00:51:29Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:51:30Top rope.
00:51:31Measuring Helms.
00:51:33Moves up.
00:51:34Takes Helms out.
00:51:36Hooks the leg.
00:51:37Jimmy Wayne Yang has defeated the former cruiserweight champion.
00:51:41Here's your winner.
00:51:43Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:51:45And that is an upset, Michael.
00:51:50Gregory Helms held the title longer than anybody has in the history of SmackDown.
00:51:56Just got defeated by Jimmy Wayne Yang.
00:51:58Big win for Jimmy Wayne Yang over Gregory Helms here tonight on Friday night.
00:52:04SmackDown doing a little two-step, a little line dancing.
00:52:08And ladies and gentlemen, there is the animal.
00:52:10But Jason, you have to imagine what's going through his mind.
00:52:12And we understand the animal's going to comment on the steel cage match next.
00:52:17For this man, Batista, and the world champion, The Undertaker.
00:52:36It is all about the title next week inside a steel cage.
00:52:40And Batista, he doesn't look like he's fooling around, John.
00:52:43Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Batista.
00:52:50The intense look in the eyes of the animal, a beeline to the ring.
00:52:54Michael, there is nothing as exciting when you start seeing that steel cage come down from the roof
00:53:00for a steel cage match.
00:53:01All the fans getting up on their feet, knowing what they are about to see.
00:53:06The steel cage match could be the most exciting thing in all of wrestling.
00:53:11The pictures tell the story.
00:53:12Batista bandage, the lip to the ring, barely getting through the rope.
00:53:17The scars and the wounds from last man standing Sunday.
00:53:21But Batista has to do it all over again a week from tonight
00:53:25with The Undertaker inside a steel cage.
00:53:29The Undertaker inside a steel cage.
00:53:59We pushed each other to the limit.
00:54:16We pushed each other to the limit, and then we went past the limit.
00:54:19and then we went past the limit neither one of us able to answer the 10 count nothing resolved
00:54:33and as I'm laying there in all the rubble and all the destruction
00:54:45beaten and bruised and battered and bloody and I'm thinking to myself
00:54:52is this all worth it is the world heavyweight championship worth all this pain
00:55:06is it worth all this destruction
00:55:15and if I could have I would have stepped outside of my body and I would have slapped myself in the face
00:55:29for asking a stupid question like that is it worth it hell yes it's worth it
00:55:34it's worth every second of pain every drop of blood
00:55:40and I'm ready to do it again
00:55:45every inch of my body hurts and I am ready to do it again
00:55:55because it's worth it
00:55:58after Wrestlemania I made a promise that I would regain my world heavyweight title
00:56:08and in a 15 foot high cage
00:56:13I will
00:56:15a very emotional

01:01:06out of the ring
01:01:07and now he's going
01:01:07to make Miz pay for it

01:01:12unorthodox style
01:01:13to the jumping ribs
01:01:15cover
01:01:15on Miz
01:01:16you gotta give Miz credit
01:01:17for kicking out
01:01:18I don't have to give
01:01:19Miz credit for anything
01:01:20but I was surprised
01:01:22the way he brought it

01:01:24and again
01:01:25the world champion
01:01:26The Undertaker
01:01:27standing by

01:01:32against Batista
01:01:32Batista here moments ago
01:01:34saying that
01:01:35it is all worth it
01:01:36putting his body
01:01:37what he has put it through
01:01:38over the past few weeks
01:01:40to win back
01:01:41that world title
01:01:42Finlay
01:01:43taking the protected
01:01:44covering off
01:01:44the turnbuckle
01:01:45hey
01:01:47Hornswoggle
01:01:48Hornswoggle on the step
01:01:50referee

01:01:55referee putting the paddy
01:01:57back on the turnbuckle
01:01:58never saw Hornswoggle
01:02:00back into the ring
01:02:01Hornswoggle was playing
01:02:03the part of a long dart
01:02:04thought Hornswoggle tossing
01:02:07was banned
01:02:08in most states
01:02:09watch Hornswoggle
01:02:10I don't think the Miz
01:02:14is going to get his role
01:02:15as Teddy Long's assistant
01:02:16and Miz was interviewing
01:02:17to help Teddy Long out
01:02:19Teddy Long wanting
01:02:20a hiring assistant
01:02:21so he can spend more time
01:02:23with Crystal
01:02:23apparently there was
01:02:24a weight limit
01:02:25because Dusty didn't make it
01:02:26they had everybody there
01:02:28but Jack and Jerry Briscoe
01:02:30shoulder into the steel post
01:02:32could be an opening
01:02:33for Miz
01:02:33shoulders down

01:02:35and it kicked out
01:02:36by Finley

01:02:49kick out
01:02:50I still can't get over
01:02:51the fact of speechless
01:02:52that you were denigrating
01:02:53the Hall of Fame
01:02:54a legendary
01:02:55American dream
01:02:56Dusty Rhodes
01:02:57he's fine
01:02:58maybe you should look
01:03:00in the mirror
01:03:00before you make comments
01:03:01about heavy kick
01:03:01and look at Miz
01:03:03a big clothesline
01:03:04across the chest

01:10:06MVP

01:10:28a power play

01:10:30to face this man
01:10:31who MVP's gotta face tonight
01:10:32the man who set MVP on fire
01:10:45I hate agreeing with you
01:10:48you're right
01:10:49MVP rather cautious
01:10:54as he looks into the eyes
01:10:56as he looks into the eyes of the
01:10:57the big red machine
01:10:59little cautious
01:10:59last time he faced it
01:11:01Michael right in front of us
01:11:02MVP was set on fire
01:11:04boom
01:11:05when MVP arrived on the scene
01:11:12here on Friday Night Smackdown
01:11:13last fall
01:11:14he was immediately placed into a
01:11:17in a matchups with Kane
01:11:18General Manager Teddy Long
01:11:20seemingly trying to punish
01:11:21MVP for what was a
01:11:23very long holdout
01:11:24here's the power of Kane
01:11:26as the big red machine unloads
01:11:27MVP went through street fights
01:11:29cage matches
01:11:30and of course
01:11:31the infernal match
01:11:33against Kane
01:11:34and now of course
01:11:36Captain Cialis
01:11:38Teddy Long
01:11:38does it to him again
01:11:39and sticks him in there
01:11:40with a monster
01:11:41like Kane
01:11:42when MVP did the right thing
01:11:44he was sick against
01:11:45Chris Benoit
01:11:46he demanded a rematch
01:11:47he should have got a rematch
01:11:49without having to be in here
01:11:50to face this monster Kane
01:11:52and this matchup
01:11:54is about an opportunity
01:11:55to face Chris Benoit
01:11:57with the United States
01:11:58Championship on the line
01:11:59MVP wants the title
01:12:01you know Kane sure does
01:12:03put in midair
01:12:04the bear hug
01:12:08by the 6 foot 10
01:12:10that is strength
01:12:11over 300 pound Kane
01:12:13you can't coach that
01:12:15MVP driven
01:12:16back first
01:12:18into the turnbuckle
01:12:19you gotta wonder
01:12:20how that back is
01:12:23John
01:12:23after suffering
01:12:24a number of suplexes
01:12:25at the hands of Benoit
01:12:27did MVP
01:12:28it back last Sunday
01:12:29scoop slam
01:12:31drilling MVP
01:12:33could be a quick
01:12:34net jump
01:12:34MVP
01:12:35barely
01:12:36kicked out
01:12:37but you look at this
01:12:40Michael
01:12:40MVP is out here
01:12:42he's got this monster
01:12:43he has to face
01:12:44in Kane
01:12:44to get back to
01:12:45Chris Benoit
01:12:46in the United States
01:12:47Championship
01:12:47and he has not run
01:12:49he keeps attacking Kane
01:12:51it's done virtually
01:12:52no good so far
01:12:54but you gotta give it up
01:12:55for the young man's guts
01:12:57knees driven into the spine
01:13:00Kane again
01:13:01seems to have targeted
01:13:02that back
01:13:03a back as we mentioned
01:13:05may have been worn down
01:13:06by Chris Benoit
01:13:08Sunday
01:13:09what a right
01:13:12what do you mean may have
01:13:13he sat there in front of us

01:13:15German suplexes

01:13:20of the back
01:13:20in the kidney area
01:13:22MVP

01:13:37at the hands of Kane

01:13:39over a month
01:13:40to recover
