00:00So put this together saying, all right, you guys want to fight?
00:04You want to really do this considering everything that's happening in just 24
00:07hours?
00:08We'll do it.
00:09And this is what we have as a main event.
00:11You know who else loved it?
00:12I'm sure Seth freaking Rollins because Seth freaking Rollins is going one on one
00:19with LA Knight tomorrow.
00:20This is a risk free night for Seth Rollins watching tomorrow night's opponent
00:25at Saturday night's main event perhaps get mauled here.
00:28Good start by LA Knight chasing down Solo Sokoa and we saw, of course, Seth's
00:33Oracle, Paul Heyman showing up earlier tonight as well.
00:37Now, of course, Jimmy Uso will be in action tomorrow night too against a opponent in
00:42this match, Solo Sokoa for the United States Championship.
00:46Now they're both shouldering some risk here tonight, unlike LA Knight and
00:50Seth Rollins.
00:51Wait, did that hip attack just have a little something extra on it?
00:54Well, you're fighting your brother, little brother, older brother.
00:57You always put a little extra stank on those shots.
01:02And talking about stank just dropping big Jim there is Lil Bro, the United States champ,
01:08Solo Sokoa.
01:09By the way, you see right there, SummerSlam tickets are on sale now just three weeks away.
01:13The Undisputed WWE Championship match.
01:16Cody Rhodes, John Cena.
01:18With all the action over the course of the rest of the month of July considering this
01:24weekend alone and then what we will get to open up August in Metro.
01:28Talking about all the action, JC Matteo has been all action since being brought in by Solo Sokoa.
01:36He's going to rapidly climb the rankings to be perhaps the most trusted soldier in the army.
01:42Samoan drop into the hook of the leg and quickly Matteo kicks out the former Olympian.
01:472004, he represented Guam, was the nation's flag bearer in the opening ceremonies.
01:52He is an absolute powerhouse.
01:54The bundle of muscle.
01:56Let's talk about Big Jim, of course, there's been a lot of cheap shots taken at Big Jim.
02:01Unfair comparisons to how his career has played out versus main event Jey Uso's in recent months.
02:09That all gets put to bed tomorrow night if Big Jim can capture singles gold for the first time here in WWE
02:18by beating Lil Bro and winning the United States Championship.
02:22Man, man, man, just destroyed him right into our announce desk and now a Samoan drop over the reinforced desk.
02:33This little brother stands over Big Brother.
02:50After just delivering, the Samoan drop.
02:55God, he's got ugly here, poor Big Jim, and I just cannot take my eyes off Talatonga.
03:01The towering Talatonga, you're a big man yourself, and you're looking up at him, Wade.
03:06I'm terrified of the man, massive shoulders too.
03:09Nearly seven foot tall is the newest addition to the MFTs, the newly minted family of Solo Sokola,
03:21who just absolutely annihilated our announce desk here.
03:25The desk is completely racked, but the action continues.
03:30Oh!
03:32A cranium-crushing hip attack to Big Jim, whose hopes of victory tomorrow getting slimmer by the minute.
03:42I mean, this could turn into a procession from here, perhaps the damage done now to Big Jim.
03:53LA Knight hopeless on the apron.
03:55Still haven't got any experience tagging together, they've been adversaries on more than one occasion.
04:02Some are gonna figure this out and take on Solo Sokola with the MFTs prowling the outside of the ring.
04:11JC Matteo wants to get the best of Big Jim.
04:15I mean, looking at the state of Big Jim, I feel like anybody could get the best of him at this point.
04:20That was an incredible attack that he had to withstand on our announce desk.
04:25Body has turned to Jelly, there's nothing in the way of resistance, and now JC Matteo,
04:30and perhaps even more so Solo Sokola, can really soften up Solo's opponent before Saturday night's main event,
04:39making that matchup, that title defense, that much easier but all right off Big Jim.
04:45Could he rally his way back into this?
04:48Oh!
04:49Inches away from Matteo!
04:52Tag!
04:53He needs it badly.
04:55Tag, tug of war here.
04:58Solo Sokola clicking off a deal.
05:00Oh, how nice was that?
05:02So well executed.
05:03Face first in a turnbuckle.
05:05And the assault continues.
05:08Jimmy, you should have stayed.
05:11One.
05:12One.
05:13I loved you.
05:14Two.
05:15Trying to give you two.
05:16On the encounter between younger brother and big brother, Solo Sokola and Jimmy Uso.
05:21Tomorrow on NBC and Atlanta, they're gonna meet for the US Championship.
05:24But right now, it is a heated, and I mean heated, tag team battle as Solo Sokola comes in with all his weight behind him with a running hip attack.
05:34And let's not forget, for about two straight months, Solo Sokola pleaded with Jimmy Uso.
05:40Join my army.
05:41You could be part of this.
05:43I'm building something special.
05:45Well, Jimmy declined time and time again.
05:49And with that move, he may have bought himself a chance to get this tag to the megastar.
05:54He is desperate to find his way to L.A. night.
06:00Tomorrow, the megastar will take on Seth Rollins on Saturday night's main event.
06:06And look at JC Matteo.
06:09Just mocking, dragging him back.
06:12But Jimmy gets free.
06:15And the big kick.
06:17Is that enough separation to find his way to L.A. night?
06:22A level too much left in the underrated, underappreciated, uber-talented, big Jim.
06:30The mockery started too soon for Matteo.
06:33And that's the tag.
06:34Here he comes.
06:35The megastar.
06:37Heating things up here in Nashville.
06:39Yeah!
06:40Yeah!
06:41Yeah!
06:42Yeah!
06:43I feel the frenzy right here in this packed out arena.
06:52Matteo tries to reverse things.
06:55Sets him in the corner.
06:56Knight gets out of the way.
06:58Jumping neck breaker by the megastar.
07:02Well, L.A. night looking in rare form as he closes in on his matchup.
07:07Oh, good for the BFT!
07:08Went for the BFT.
07:09Got sent back into the ropes.
07:11Matteo eats a boot.
07:12Solo Sokoa misses wildly.
07:14He floors in.
07:15Oh, a roll up.
07:16A roll up for the win.
07:17Oh!
07:18And look at the athleticism and power of Knight to free himself there.
07:23The diversionary tactics from Solo Sokoa and the MFT.
07:27Simply have not been enough to knock the wind out of the sails of the megastar.
07:33And whose game is this?
07:36He is fired up entering this massive weekend.
07:39Whoop!
07:41What!
07:42J-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A!
07:45J-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A!
07:48Jump on signature leaping elbow and now big jim!
07:53Uso splash, hooks the leg, and SOMO at the last possible second.
08:00Pinpoint timing from the United States champion.
08:04Not going to lose that easily.
08:06Now dragging JC Mateo over to the corner to make the tag happen himself.
08:11How smart was that by SOMO secure?
08:14He's not going to lose any momentum this evening ahead of his championship showdown.
08:19And now it's punishment time.
08:21Guided Night referee of Charles Robinson, but effective was the actions of Solo SOMO.
08:31Looking to deliver the Samoan spike.
08:33Instead, he's a superkick.
08:37Just when Jim thought he could get it instead, it is a spinning solo slam.
08:44Oh, and L.A. Knight comes in to break it up.
08:46Yeah, Knight back from the dead, but he may well be going back to the mortuary here.
08:51Oh, no.
08:52Turned it around on JC Mateo.
08:53Now about to take flight.
08:55Oh, and he sends him right into the corner of our announce desk.
08:58And with Talatonga lurking behind him.
09:06Keep your eyes peeled here.
09:08Wait up.
09:08From every angle.
09:11Oh, Heyman has arrived at time, people.
09:16I mean, there's danger everywhere.
09:18You look if you're the mayor star.
09:20You simply don't have enough eyes.
09:23Of course, Heyman's mean.
09:24No!
09:25Talatonga just wrecks L.A. Knight when he was distracted by the Oracle.
