00:00:00Together.
00:00:30Together.
00:01:00Who's coming for him.
00:01:02L.A. Knight.
00:01:04The mega star has survived various attacks from that group.
00:01:08Now Knight and Rollins settle it in the ring.
00:01:12Plus, the Viper is ready to strike.
00:01:16You see him, Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre.
00:01:22McIntyre's taking aim at the Hall of Famer.
00:01:25And there he is with Jelly Roll.
00:01:28Randy's been battling the very best.
00:01:30But now, a long time adversary has returned in Drew McIntyre for this Showcase event.
00:01:38Meanwhile, a family feud goes to the next level.
00:01:42Solo Sokoa, the United States Champion.
00:01:46He's put together what he calls the MFTs by his side.
00:01:49But that family tree includes an older brother who refuses to join in.
00:01:54Jimmy Uso is out to claim his first singles title in his long WWE career.
00:02:00Then, there's the World Heavyweight Championship main event.
00:02:04Gunther crossed the line, made things personal here in Atlanta.
00:02:08And now he has to defend his title.
00:02:12Against Georgia's Barrios!
00:02:14Hometown legend!
00:02:16The man who won a championship here all those years ago.
00:02:20It'll be the last ride for Goldberg.

00:03:04Not to talk to him when he walked.
00:03:07Rest in peace.

00:04:27Look at this scene here at State Farm Arena here in Atlanta for Saturday Night's Main Event.
00:04:32Good evening everybody.
00:04:33Thrilled that you're with us as always right here in primetime at NBC.
00:04:37Joe Tessitore and Jesse the Body Ventura.
00:04:42Always great to be with you Jesse.
00:04:44And you're incredibly equipped to analyze what's gonna happen here tonight with Goldberg in action.
00:04:51You gotta go back to 1998 when he won a world championship here.

00:05:04Goldberg's gonna have to battle his age no matter what.
00:05:08He has got to win quick.
00:05:10He has got to win early in my opinion.
00:05:13The longer the bout goes, the advantage goes to Gunther.

00:06:01with a majorly stacked card here on Saturday night's main event.
00:06:05Why not kick things off with Orton and McIntyre.
00:06:07I hear voices in my hands,
00:06:14I can't believe in every Sunday night.
00:06:18I hear voices in my hands,
00:06:27I can't believe in every Sunday night.
00:06:29You've got shoes in your wrist,
00:06:30and all designed to keep you safe.
00:06:33But when it looks like they're working,
00:06:36I'm starting to hear.
00:06:38I'm starting to hear your spirit.
00:06:40I'm starting to hear.
00:06:42Let's sing.
00:06:44I can't believe in every Sunday night.
00:06:45I have my favorite favorite thing,
00:06:47but when I tell you how to do that,
00:06:51I hear voices in my hands,
00:06:55I hear voices in my hands,
00:06:57I hear voices in my hands,
00:07:01I hear voices in my hands.
00:07:05The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:07:32Making his way to the ring, being accompanied by a four-time Grammy-nominated documentary artist, Jelly Roll.
00:07:40From St. Louis, Missouri, weaning at 280 pounds, the Viper, Randy Orton.
00:07:53Randy Orton and Jelly Roll bonding last night on Friday Night SmackDown.
00:07:58We'll show you what happened in just a little bit, but Randy Orton kicking us off tonight
00:08:03in front of nearly 12,000 in Atlanta for Saturday Night's main event.
00:08:08I'll see you next time.
00:08:10They talk to me.
00:08:12They talk to me.
00:08:15They talk to me.
00:08:18They tell me they get out of the tune.
00:08:21They show me things.
00:08:23They talk to me.
00:08:26They talk to me.
00:08:30They talk to me.
00:08:47Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:09:17Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:09:47Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:10:17Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:10:21His opponent, being accompanied by Logan Paul,
00:10:24from here in Scotland, weighing in at 275 pounds,
00:10:29Drew Neskenthal!
00:10:32Well, I'm not shocked to see these two hypocrites
00:10:35hanging out together.
00:10:37Let's take it back to last night on SmackDown.
00:10:39Jelly Roll was performing.
00:10:45Ay-yo, ay-yo, ay-yo!
00:10:47The WWE doesn't need a Jelly Roll.
00:10:52The WWE needs a Logan Paul.
00:10:55Everybody back there from top to bottom
00:10:58does everything that they can do
00:11:00to make sure that Logan Paul loses...
00:11:03And then McIntyre with an ambush, Wade,
00:11:06and a Claymore, and Logan Paul went on loan.
00:11:09Seizing the opportunity to pick the bones
00:11:11until Jelly Roll got involved in an irate Logan Paul.
00:11:16Tracing Jelly Roll set right afterwards,
00:11:20bowing vengeance.
00:11:22You are looking at the man who claims he has evolved
00:11:25over the past decade and a half here in WWE,
00:11:29none other than the Scottish warrior Drew McIntyre.
00:11:34He's been chastising Randy Orton for a couple of weeks now,
00:11:38claiming that Randy could not pull the trigger
00:11:41against Cody Rhodes and their big matchup.
00:11:44That Randy Orton has lost his killer instinct.
00:11:49Well, certainly an element of true to what Drew McIntyre said,
00:11:53and it clearly hit a raw nerve with Randy Orton,
00:11:56who probably RKO'd McIntyre one week ago.
00:12:00Hence McIntyre's retort with last night's Claymore.
00:12:04One for one now.
00:12:05So the renewal of a great all-time rivalry here tonight
00:12:08with McIntyre and Randy Orton.
00:12:10Their first match one-on-one was back in 2011.
00:12:14McIntyre versus Orton.
00:12:162020.
00:12:17They had an unbelievable rivalry.
00:12:21They didn't consist of a SummerSlam match
00:12:24and an ambulance match.
00:12:26And Randy Orton, a hell in a cell.
00:12:29And McIntyre winning a no disqualification
00:12:31and no countout.
00:12:32Tremendous history between these two.
00:12:33Way two men you know extremely well.
00:12:35Yeah, and they more importantly know each other extremely well.
00:12:39They're acutely aware of how dangerous their opponent is this evening.
00:12:43McIntyre sent over the top rope.
00:12:46And now Randy Orton, the Viper,
00:12:48staring down Logan Paul.
00:12:51And Orton now
00:12:53went for that classic back suplex to McIntyre.
00:12:57So easy against most opponents.
00:12:59And McIntyre gonna deliver Orton's own move to him
00:13:03on the top of our announce table.
00:13:05And that's that previously
00:13:06back of Orton once again
00:13:09taking the brum of the punishment
00:13:11in the early goings here.
00:13:12Another one to Orton
00:13:14already favoring his back.
00:13:16McIntyre's dominating early
00:13:18here on NBC.
00:13:19We are back on Saturday night's main event.
00:13:24Nearly 12,000 in attendance tonight.
00:13:26State Farm Arena, Atlanta, Georgia
00:13:28kicking off the night with a renewal of a great rivalry.
00:13:31Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre.
00:13:33Randy Orton starting to fight back in this match.
00:13:36But McIntyre sending Randy into the corner.
00:13:38And again, the lower back has been the target.
00:13:40Yeah, absolutely.
00:13:41And Logan Paul clearly looking on,
00:13:43enjoying what he's seeing.
00:13:44Jelly roll less.
00:13:45So, you'll remember at Night of Champions,
00:13:48Cody Rhodes against Randy Orton.
00:13:49That superplex in the early goings
00:13:51tweaked the lower back of the Viper.
00:13:53We saw it.
00:13:54The world saw it.
00:13:55I guarantee you Drew McIntyre saw it too.
00:13:58Against Randy Orton!
00:14:00What happened to you?
00:14:02And McIntyre questioning
00:14:04what has happened to Randy Orton.
00:14:05We mentioned earlier
00:14:06McIntyre questioning
00:14:07whether or not Randy
00:14:09had the killer instinct anymore.
00:14:10But he wouldn't go
00:14:11to the trigger against Cody Rhodes.
00:14:13And those eyes of the Viper
00:14:15just narrowed somewhat.
00:14:17And Randy
00:14:17exploded out of the corner
00:14:19with a clothesline.
00:14:20And here comes
00:14:21the WWE's Apex Predator.
00:14:23Well, really a good idea
00:14:25to start coding the Viper.
00:14:26But nice move there
00:14:27from McIntyre.
00:14:29Putting the break zone.
00:14:30The Glasgow kiss
00:14:31by McIntyre.
00:14:32Launched out to the apron.
00:14:35And now Drew
00:14:35heading up to the top rope.
00:14:38Scottish Warrior
00:14:39has to roll through.
00:14:40Power slam by Randy.
00:14:41He got outwitted
00:14:45the first time
00:14:45but he connected that time.
00:14:47Yeah, both men
00:14:47going counter for counter.
00:14:49Move for move here.
00:14:51Trying to second guess
00:14:52their opponent
00:14:52the entire time
00:14:53and wait up.
00:14:54It might be payback time.
00:14:55And now it's
00:14:55Randy Orton to McIntyre.
00:14:59And Randy Orton
00:15:00going to make McIntyre
00:15:02pay a second time.
00:15:04And I don't believe
00:15:07the Viper's done yet.
00:15:09A third time.
00:15:11McIntyre
00:15:12on the announce table.
00:15:13And now Randy Orton
00:15:14staring down Logan Paul.
00:15:16And Logan is caught
00:15:17between Orton
00:15:18and Jelly Roll.
00:15:19Logan took a fair few
00:15:20cheap shots
00:15:21at Randy Orton
00:15:22last night.
00:15:23Oh, and right to the
00:15:24throat.
00:15:25McIntyre using the
00:15:27distraction by Logan Paul
00:15:28to his advantage.
00:15:29Just goes to show you
00:15:34how important
00:15:35a corner man
00:15:36can be in this game.
00:15:40Orton
00:15:40thinks it's Randy Orton
00:15:43that's raping DDT
00:15:44and Randy's taking over.
00:15:57The Viper's ready to strike.
00:15:59And Logan Paul
00:16:05pausing the distraction.
00:16:08Well, how vital.
00:16:10McIntyre
00:16:10with a Claymore
00:16:12to Randy Orton.
00:16:13Hook of the leg.
00:16:15Randy able to get
00:16:16his foot on the bottom
00:16:17rope before a count of three.
00:16:19Referee Sean Bennett
00:16:20in perfect position
00:16:21as we take another look.
00:16:23Just utter devastation
00:16:24from McIntyre.
00:16:25The fix was in.
00:16:26The distraction
00:16:26from Logan Paul.
00:16:28A flush Claymore
00:16:29but a veteran Viper
00:16:31knowing exactly
00:16:32where he was
00:16:33and we're having a showdown now.
00:16:35Jelly Roll on Logan Paul.
00:16:38You're in the wrong arena, buddy.
00:16:40And I told you that yesterday.
00:16:42And I'm going to tell you again.
00:16:43You're in the wrong arena.
00:16:45You're in the wrong arena.
00:16:46Yeah.
00:16:47Oh, what, brother?
00:16:48I'm pushing you there.
00:16:50Logan Paul
00:16:51dropped by Jelly Roll
00:16:53and Jelly Roll
00:16:54and Paul's face
00:16:55as Paul tries to retreat.
00:16:59And now McIntyre
00:17:01barking at the
00:17:02country music superstar.
00:17:04You're involved in my business.
00:17:06You want to fight?
00:17:07You get in here,
00:17:08fight me.
00:17:09You want to fight?
00:17:10Fight you, Mike.
00:17:11Get out of here, I tear you.
00:17:13Don't try me.
00:17:13Get out of here.
00:17:14Get out of here.
00:17:15Get out of here.
00:17:16Number five.
00:17:18That's what I thought.
00:17:19Nothing.
00:17:21Nothing.
00:17:21Smart move.
00:17:23Jelly Roll.
00:17:24Keep the hell out of now.
00:17:25And now fight.
00:17:25Know your limits.
00:17:27And Randy Orton
00:17:28An RKO out of nowhere by Orton.
00:17:31Here's the cover.
00:17:33Orton with the win.
00:17:37Here is your winner, the maker, Randy Orton.
00:17:46Randy Orton with an RKO out of nowhere.
00:17:51Knocked off McIntyre.
00:17:53After the issue with Jelly Roll and Logan Paul,
00:17:58here at ringside.
00:17:59Well, that was a major distraction from the outside from Jelly Roll.
00:18:03He needs to stick to music.
00:18:05And now, that one lucky punch to the jaw of Randy Orton.
00:18:10And now Logan Paul unloading on Orton.
00:18:14Paul with that big right hand connecting.
00:18:25Jelly Roll has seen it up.
00:18:28Jelly Roll is not a fighter.
00:18:33But he's not going to put up with his friend being beaten up here tonight.
00:18:38And now Jelly Roll swinging Paul across the ring.
00:18:45And Jelly Roll with a right hand.
00:18:47Jelly with a right hand.
00:18:49Paul down.
00:18:50Paul is down.
00:18:51And we're going to win here.
00:18:52Jelly Roll with a right hand.
00:19:01Jelly roll with a right hand.
00:19:02Woo.
00:19:02Jelly, Jelly, Jelly, Jelly, Jelly, Jelly, Jelly, Jelly, Jelly.
00:19:09No!
00:19:11A claymore by McIntyre to Jelly Roll as he was tucking on a falling Randy Orton.
00:19:18What do you think was going to happen to you?
00:19:20You step into my ring, you become a target.
00:19:24You're going to remember this night.
00:19:26You're struggling through McIntyre.
00:19:28What the hell are you thinking?
00:19:30He got it on my ball!
00:19:32Well, if you ask me, that is exactly what Jelly Roll deserved.
00:19:35Listen Cole, I'll play a little guitar on my off day.
00:19:38It doesn't mean I can pack out the honky-tonks.
00:19:41Stick to your leg, Jelly Roll.
00:19:44You are not a fighter.
00:19:46Well, at the end of the day Wade, the match was over.
00:19:49Randy Orton was getting beaten up by Logan Paul,
00:19:52and all the Jelly Roll did was come to the aid of his friend,
00:19:56and he suffered a claymore at the hands of McIntyre.
00:19:59And this is a serious situation here.
00:20:01We need some medical help.
00:20:03If you're not an active competitor,
00:20:05you should not be getting in the ring.
00:20:07Randy Orton, Drew McIntyre, yes, Logan Paul.
00:20:10Active competitors.
00:20:12License.
00:20:13Credential.
00:20:14Jelly Roll is a musician.
00:20:16Stay out on the ring.
00:20:29Jelly Roll and Logan Paul got into it at ringside.
00:20:31Jelly Roll had enough.
00:20:32And I can't quite blame him here.
00:20:34And then Pop might be acceptable, but then the distraction to Drew McIntyre was pivotal in this match,
00:20:44because Drew was caught napping, and that RKO out of nowhere put McIntyre to sleep for good in this one.
00:20:52Yeah, and then Randy Orton, uh, well, he would be attacked by not only the Logan Paul, the sneak attack
00:20:57with that titanium-loaded right hand dropping Randy Orton.
00:21:01And as Logan Paul teed off on the defensively, Jelly Roll had had enough.
00:21:05Yeah, and it's dangerous territory when you step in this ring.
00:21:08A beautiful right hook from Jelly Roll dropping the Maverick.
00:21:12But when you get in the ring, bad things happen.
00:21:15And the sweetest Claymore of all time took the musical superstar down.
00:21:20What did you think was gonna happen to you?
00:21:23You step into my ring.
00:21:25You've become a target.
00:21:27Explained what you've just done.
00:21:28Explained what you've just done.
00:21:29Make it make sense.
00:21:30What do you do?
00:21:31Make it make sense.
00:21:32You both play favorites.
00:21:33You both play favorites.
00:21:34You understand?
00:21:35You do understand what you did.
00:21:36And you've been able to call out.
00:21:38You can't do so.
00:21:39You can't do so.
00:21:40I don't even play it.
00:21:42You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you.
00:21:45You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you.

00:29:45i'm number one jimmy john's to the big pot
00:29:49it's presented by jimmy john's by jimmy john's new toasted sandwiches today
00:30:01and jimmy usso looking to win his first singles championship in wwe and what just so happens to be
00:30:07his little brother's first ever defense of a singles championship a real family affair here
00:30:14his opponent being accompanied by mft from las vegas nevada weighing in at 250 pounds he is the united
00:30:37team champion solo
00:30:42you know wait many believe that jimmy usso has the momentum coming into this matchup after what
00:30:46happened last night on friday night smackdown jimmy teaming with la night against solo chico
00:30:50and jc mateo of the mfts and attack max and with knife fully in control things were looking good
00:30:57until the untimely arrival of one oracle paul hayman appeared at ringside a major distraction and that
00:31:06opened the door for the massive talent tonga to completely wipe the megastar out
00:31:11amidst the chaos though big jim was ready rolled up solo sokoa scored the dub while the mfts gave chase
00:31:20interesting uh stories in this matchup tonight first for solo sokoa wade he was extremely embarrassed
00:31:27last night by losing to jimmy usso in this tag team matchup but when you look at jimmy usso you look at
00:31:32this is a suicide mission as he stares across the ring at the entire group of mfts it's really been
00:31:41two weeks in a row now jimmy has scored a tag victory over solo sokoa on smackdown an irate solo
00:31:50sokoa now promising some swift vengeance and consequences for his big brother and you're right
00:31:57i simply don't see how in this situation with the ring surrounded by the mfts jimmy usso can pull
00:32:05off another miraculous victory it is for the united states championship solo sokoa winning the title
00:32:12from jacob patu back at night of champions thanks to the arrival of talatanga the latest member of solo
00:32:19sokoa's quote family what utter devastation talatanga has helped enact on behalf of the mfts completely
00:32:28wiping out jacob patu last week you're not coming back
00:32:32and here we go jimmy the older brother of solo sokoa and we're underway for the united states
00:32:47championship interesting note here 15 years in wwe only one time has jimmy usso had an opportunity
00:32:54to singles title and that was in a multi-man match this is his first ever one-on-one matchup for a
00:32:59singles championship in wwe yeah you told me that stat earlier i simply couldn't believe it
00:33:05underappreciated underrated but uber talented big jimmy usso needs to put the naysayers away tonight
00:33:14by scoring what feels like an impossible victory and grabbing gold and a suicide die by jimmy usso
00:33:21down goes solo that was an ugly landing for jimmy usso in the process and staring up now at three mfts
00:33:29stalking their prey it got uglier by the second yeah jimmy wisely back into the ring
00:33:36and again a very irate solo sokoa
00:33:40you mentioned earlier the embarrassment he suffered last night after being pinned by jimmy usso
00:33:48united states championship prestigious title the wcw version of course held by goldberg a number of times in
00:33:55his career you know the past couple of weeks for solo to oh jimmy it has been a re-accumulation of
00:34:03power here with his new army and he expects everything to go his way and it simply hasn't been the case
00:34:09because of big jim oh solo sokoa catching jimmy up oh spinning solo by sokoa covering a quick kick out
00:34:17by jimmy usso yeah that's surprising most guys stay down perhaps for the three count of that particular
00:34:23move but big jim really fired up tonight yeah and it's early on in the match and jimmy hasn't taken
00:34:28that quite amount of a lot of punishment yet now solo blocked by usso delivers the right hand i'll tell
00:34:34you right now you always fight a little tougher against your own brother i'll say that as a guy with an
00:34:40older brother myself oh and a right hand by solo drops jimmy beautiful uppercut right to the jaw perfect
00:34:48time behind the officials back
00:35:00the united states champion solo sokoa has taken over this matchup against his brother jimmy usso on
00:35:06saturday night's main event i'll tell you i should bring the coal mine back because it has been
00:35:11insane out here at the announce table throughout the first portion of the show it's been nuts and
00:35:16michael cole's voice has gone a little higher there's a reason for that we'll show you in a second
00:35:21as solo sokoa is about to do major damage to the spine of big jim or is it yeah but big jim able to
00:35:28counter as these two battle on the apron and solo sokoa with the right hand jimmy usso trying to stay in
00:35:33this fight united states champion oh no spine first to the post it's more than one way to
00:35:41and jimmy with a kick we simply cannot keep big jim down and that'll allow the number one contender
00:35:49the united states championship to maybe rally looking for a german suplex perhaps on the apron not a move
00:35:55usually in the playbook oh no into the apron solo sokoa landed on the back of his head
00:36:03oh god let's take another look at last big jim not known for his german suplex arsenal but when
00:36:11his little bro his most hated rival pulling out all the stops in pursuit of the united states
00:36:17championship well wade you know how difficult it is to get a title opportunity into your career here in
00:36:22wwe when you have when you have to capitalize and jimmy realizes that let's talk about difficult 15
00:36:28years in the making finally you've got one it might be another 15 before you get another
00:36:32make it count big jim jimmy with a cross body lateral press he's going to hook the leg
00:36:39near fall for jimmy usso referee daphne lashon right there how frustrating is that for big jim knowing how
00:36:45close he was to scoring his first slice of singles gold a millisecond away from victory and let's not
00:36:54forget the mfts mateo palatonga on the low out here at ringside looking on looking on menacingly lurking
00:37:05with intent oh it's back in and on up your palatonga has already been involved in this one once but now
00:37:12big jim going skyward to the usos flash to win the championship solo at two another near fall
00:37:23i'll tell you what say whatever you want about solo sakala this man is a street fighting champion of the
00:37:29islands and he is quite simply double top you might not like his methodology you might not like who he
00:37:36hangs out with but you have to respect the durability in that ring and now jimmy usso perhaps
00:37:44lining up for the kill here to put his younger brother solo sakala away and take the united
00:37:50states championship goal so we're looking completely defenseless here wobbled rock and right for the
00:37:56time caught him with a big kick and drives jimmy back and there's the spinning solo with authority by
00:38:04sakala what a championship level turnaround for solo sakala who's looking to finish the job now
00:38:10and the samoan spike jimmy dunks underneath big kick to the face and another one and now jimmy looking to go up top again
00:38:20solo sakala completely glassy-eyed the body isn't cooperating
00:38:25jimmy heading up top jimmy heading up top solo going out of harm's way
00:38:34well done of the way by two of his mfts and jimmy though oh cross through up the top
00:38:41taking out everybody uso in the win three men down
00:38:55this body but crucially the body is outside the ring vital seconds being lost here for jimmy
00:39:12usso and now talataga went for the big boot he's gonna run into a super kick by
00:39:17jimmy jimmy and the disqualification does not help jimmy usso at all here and another big punt
00:39:24down goes talataga solo sakala takes advantage tanga helping him out solo steals it
00:39:34here's your winner and still the united state champion solo
00:39:41and now that monstrous talataga who cost jimmy usso the match now assaulting big jim
00:39:51solo sakala retains the goal what a master stroke what a master plan but perhaps
00:39:58the best plan at all is having the mfts in your corner yeah pack of rabbit aidas mateo and
00:40:07this squad might be invincible at this point just when everybody wrote off solo sakala back to the
00:40:18top in a big way
00:40:25and a samoa spike to his older brother jimmy it wasn't enough to win the match
00:40:31solo's been begging jimmy to re-join the family rejoin the group for the longest time
00:40:40it's black the samoan werewolf is back
00:40:46jacob fartu taken out a couple of weeks ago by the mfts who powerbonded through our announce table
00:40:54and now fatu to mateo and jacob fartu still not over the fact he lost the united states championship
00:41:03thanks to these mfts jacob is out here all gas and no brakes about the dog walks and fools and that's
00:41:12what's the fatu is doing and now the massive color conga yes yes
00:41:25and the ring face to face look at how he towers over jacob fartu oh my god a shade under seven feet tall
00:41:42and jacob fartu not backing down he's gonna unload on talataga simone werewolf has no clue
00:41:51to back down but sometimes you simply aren't given an option
00:41:55and jacob fartu's war with the mfts
00:42:08dies
00:42:18jacob fartu's war with the mfts has just begun wade oh my god that was insanity personified
00:42:29jacob fartu living dangerously swinging for the fences but if we know solo sokoa and the mfts
00:42:37there may well be some consequences going forward for the simone well you know tonight
00:42:42the final match in the great career of goldberg it's been an emotional couple of weeks mentally
00:42:47for goldberg of course he lost his father-in-law a couple of weeks ago as he looks to focus on the
00:42:52match tonight also the terrible flooding in the state of texas which occurred just down the road
00:42:57from the town that me and goldberg live in both of us had friends and uh family members who were
00:43:01involved in that tragedy uh goldberg trying to put that out of his mind tonight he told his son gage
00:43:07that these moments he tries to react to and tries to channel those emotions into what he can do in
00:43:12the ring it's much like the shock he had when he went from wcw to wwe
00:43:21goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg has climbed to the top of the most elite mountain
00:43:42goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg goldberg gold

00:44:18And earlier tonight, the situation between Jelly Roll and Logan Paul and Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre.
00:44:27Coming up next, an exclusive interview with Randy Orton and Jelly Roll.
00:44:31Saturday night's main event.
00:44:34We're on sale now via Ticketmaster.
00:44:37And Saturday night's main event in Atlanta is presented by Jimmy John.
00:44:44Trying Jimmy John's new toasted sandwiches today.
00:44:48Jelly Roll got toasted earlier tonight.
00:44:51Let's show you what happened after Randy Orton knocked off Drew McIntyre.
00:44:54Logan Paul would come in and the titanium loaded.
00:44:56White hand would take out Orton.
00:44:58Dropping the Viper, then coming along to pick the bones.
00:45:00Always ready to make a name for himself out of someone else's expense.
00:45:04Jelly Roll was not having that, though.
00:45:06A nice block and a sweet right hand to the Maverick, dropping the social media megastar.
00:45:12Yeah, but McIntyre from out of nowhere with a Claymore turning Jelly's brain to Jelly
00:45:17as Drew McIntyre had a number of things to say to the Superstar.
00:45:21What do you think is going to happen to you?
00:45:23You step into my ring, you've become a target.
00:45:27You're going to remember this thing.
00:45:29You screwed with Drew McIntyre.
00:45:30What the hell are you thinking?
00:45:32He got it all right, Paul.
00:45:33What do you think?
00:45:34What are you doing here?
00:45:38Damn it, man.
00:45:39I'm sorry.
00:45:39I should have never had you out there.
00:45:41That's on me.
00:45:42I know better.
00:45:43I know better.
00:45:44Jelly, good to see you up right after that gnarly Claymore.
00:45:47Randy, I was hoping I could get a comment on everything that transpired both last night
00:45:52and tonight.
00:45:53I put my man in harm's way, Kathy.
00:45:55It's as simple as that.
00:45:56I should have never had him out there with Drew and even Logan out there.
00:45:59That was just a bad call on my part.
00:46:01I apologize, man.
00:46:02No, no, no.
00:46:03I can't let you do that, Randy.
00:46:04I'm a grown man.
00:46:06But, man, they have gravely underestimated me.
00:46:09They think I'm soft.
00:46:11I'm not, Randy.
00:46:12I want them.
00:46:13I want them both.
00:46:15Anywhere, anytime.
00:46:17All right, all right.
00:46:18I'm feeling that.
00:46:18I'm feeling that.
00:46:19You know what?
00:46:19I do got a word for you, Kathy.
00:46:22And that word is SummerSlam.
00:46:26What's that saying?
00:46:28You and me.
00:46:29The revenge, I won't.
00:46:30That's what I'm talking about.
00:46:31Let's go.
00:46:32What is it, R.K. Roll?
00:46:33R.K. Roll.
00:46:34I ain't like it.
00:46:35I like it.
00:46:36You got it.
00:46:37R.K. Roll.
00:46:39SummerSlam?
00:46:39I don't like it at all.
00:46:40Well, nonetheless, the Hall of Famers are out tonight.
00:46:42The Steiners, Rick and Scott.
00:46:44Scott had a number of matches over the years.
00:46:46Of course, with Goldberg.
00:46:47Scott won it fall.
00:46:49Goldberg in a steel cage on Nitro.
00:46:51Of course, Rick came with Goldberg before.
00:46:53And also, a handful of singles matches with the icon, Goldberg, in the main event tonight.
00:46:59Two of the baddest dudes in the history of this industry.
00:47:02Goldberg in a steel cage.
00:47:32The following contest is scheduled for a one fall, making it to win the ring, being accompanied
00:47:44by WWE Hall of Famer, The Oracle, Paul Heyman, from Statenport, Iowa, weighing in at 225 pounds.
00:47:54He is the 2025 Mr. Money in the Bank, Seth Brickin' Rollins!
00:48:05Let's not lose sight of the fact that Paul Heyman is, of course, carrying the Money in the Bank briefcase.
00:48:15Inside is a contract that Seth Rollins can cash in at any place at any time for a world championship opportunity.
00:48:22Knowing that Gunther and Goldberg, who added in our main event in moments here on Saturday night's main event,
00:48:28could tonight be the night?
00:48:32A briefcase that in the right hands is as good as gold.
00:48:37And I would argue that in the hands of the Oracle, Paul Heyman,
00:48:41those are exactly the circumstances by which that gets converted to gold in the blink of an eye.
00:48:48Keep your eyes peeled.
00:48:52And here's a Conan, from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 240 pounds.
00:49:09It's been a tumultuous week for L.A. Knight and Seth Rollins this past Monday night on Raw.
00:49:17Our main event, Seth Rollins and Penta.
00:49:20Rollins with a stomp and the win over Penta.
00:49:23And then it was a hit-and-run attack by L.A. Knight,
00:49:28who would deliver a BFT to Rollins and an escape before Bronson and Braun could get to it.
00:49:34And then last night on Friday night, SmackDown, a different case.
00:49:38This was the Megastar post-victory.
00:49:42Open to abuse and attack from two members of that power trio,
00:49:46Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed.
00:49:49You question just where the health of the Megastar is right now.
00:49:5424 hours removed from that particular attack.
00:49:57No tape on the ribs, but you have to believe that a midsection of L.A. Knight is smarting here tonight.
00:50:04For L.A. Knight, a massive opportunity against Mr. Money in the Bank.
00:50:08Knight said, quote, I want your dignity.
00:50:10I want justice, to be honest.
00:50:12I just want to hurt you.
00:50:14This all began back the night before Money in the Bank last month.
00:50:20Rollins and company targeted his opponents in that match,
00:50:22including L.A. Knight, and Wade, since that moment, L.A. Knight has not forgotten.
00:50:27Well, he's not forgotten.
00:50:28He was also taken out of the King of the Ring tournament
00:50:31thanks to attacks from Seth Rollins and crew.
00:50:34So Seth Rollins and his men have really hamstrung the career of L.A. Knight in recent months,
00:50:40and he's not going to let that lie.
00:50:42Two-time United States champion L.A. Knight,
00:50:44battling the five-time world champion Seth Rollins.
00:50:47Oh, shots of the gut there, registered a little too hard.
00:50:52Oh, and a high elbow.
00:50:54Perhaps a little sign of that attack from last night coming to the four early here.
00:50:58And now L.A. Knight.
00:51:00Again, those ribs just collapsing, going for that falcon arrow, a suplex, and wait a second.
00:51:05Looking for a pedigree, and L.A. Knight for the BFT, blocked by Seth Rollins.
00:51:10And Rollins now launched outside the ring to the floor.
00:51:12I'd argue beating Seth freaking Rollins when you're not at 100%.
00:51:17Oh!
00:51:18May not actually be possible, but blocking out that pain right now, apparently,
00:51:23is the megastar tapping into that Kvorka that is running wild in this arena.
00:51:29Rollins bounced off our announce table, which has become a playground for our superstars here tonight.
00:51:39And I don't think he's done yet.
00:51:41Rollins bounced right into our announce table.
00:51:43Yeah, not quite enough damage was done to the announce table, apparently.
00:51:47Let's finish the job, why don't we?
00:51:48And now L.A. Knight, clothesline, and he hit Rollins hard.
00:51:52You could hear that thump.
00:51:54L.A. Knight in control.
00:51:57Ian Peacock.
00:51:58The body scissors applied by Seth Rollins here, live in Atlanta.
00:52:03Nearly 12,000 on hand for this match between Rollins and L.A. Knight.
00:52:08Seth's taking control.
00:52:10Yeah, and I don't understand the megastar's behavior of late.
00:52:12I've sung his praises from the very beginning, but all the Kvorka in the world cannot explain
00:52:17why L.A. Knight is dicing with death, taking on Solo Sokoa's MFTs on SmackDown,
00:52:24and Seth Rollins' power trio on Raw simultaneously.
00:52:27I mean, I can't even credit.
00:52:28It might not be a wise thing to do, but you've got to praise him for having the bravery to do it.
00:52:34Bravery is one thing.
00:52:35How much of a glutton for punishment can one man be?
00:52:39Everyone has their limits, even megastars, and we may well have found that limit tonight.
00:52:44Rollins, oh, and a knee rate to the midsection.
00:52:47Great strategy by the architect Seth Rollins, and the visionary now.
00:52:51Headed up to the top rope, looking to put L.A. Knight away.
00:52:54Frost flash to the injured midsection and ribs.
00:52:56Rollins for the win, hook to the leg, and a kick out.
00:52:59And what was it L.A. Knight said?
00:53:01It was a quote from you.
00:53:02I want to hurt you tonight, Seth Rollins.
00:53:04Well, that has done a complete 180.
00:53:06It is the megastar who is in severe danger here tonight,
00:53:10thanks to this abuse from Seth freaking Rollins.
00:53:13WWE fans here chanting L.A. Knight as Rollins looks to quiet the masses.
00:53:29Chance can help.
00:53:31Chance can pull you through, but...
00:53:33But at the end of the day, they're still singing my song.
00:53:36Anybody ever chanting my opponents, that's why I kept losing.
00:53:40My song.
00:53:41Oh, and L.A. Knight blocked it right.
00:53:45Now Knight trying to fight back, perhaps on adrenaline alone.
00:53:48Locked it right, and he's now blocking out the clear pain in that midsection,
00:53:52but somehow it's working, tapping into that frenzy in this arena.
00:53:56Oh, once again, one shot and down is the megastar.
00:54:00And L.A. Knight with a close line.
00:54:03And now Knight looking to rally.
00:54:05Oh, and a neckbreaker.
00:54:08Oh, what a flurry here from L.A. Knight just went.
00:54:11DDT.
00:54:12He was looking written off.
00:54:15As good as new.
00:54:23And, Carl, whose game is this?
00:54:25L.A. Knight.
00:54:28Yeah.
00:54:29Elbow delivered.
00:54:31Knight cover.
00:54:32And Rollins kicks it, too.
00:54:36And this just exemplifies the abilities of the absolute top superstars in the game.
00:54:41Blocking out that pain and turning this one on a sixpence.
00:54:45Taking full control of the match.
00:54:47Almost.
00:54:48Putting away the visionary.
00:54:50Seth freaking Rollins.
00:54:52What else does L.A. Knight have in store here?
00:54:56And if you're Rollins, a lot of pressure, Reed.
00:54:58You can ill afford a loss with all the momentum you're trying to build with this new group.
00:55:02The breaker and Reed and Heyman and Rollins.
00:55:05Look at the money in the bank briefcase.
00:55:06You've got the oracle, Paul Heyman.
00:55:08The uncheckable power of Reed.
00:55:10Oh!
00:55:11You don't want to be the figurehead of that crew and pulling out losses when the deck was initially stacked in your favor.
00:55:19L.A. Knight fighting through the pain.
00:55:20The injured midsection looking for the BFG.
00:55:22Seth Rollins going to make his way out to the apron.
00:55:26Averting disaster there.
00:55:28Best footwork in the game.
00:55:30Seth freaking Rollins for the past 10 plus years can move faster than anyone when he needs to.
00:55:36And boy, did he need to.
00:55:38Averting danger from that BFT and turning this one in his own favor.
00:55:44And Rollins went to the top rope.
00:55:45L.A. Knight made him pay.
00:55:46Look at concern on the face of Paul Heyman.
00:55:48As Heyman looks on down on the apron.
00:55:52And a big chop by L.A. Knight.
00:55:53But remember, Heyman is hooked to everything in his career to Seth Rollins.
00:56:03Constantly hooked himself to success.
00:56:06That has been the modus operandum of Paul Heyman from the very beginning.
00:56:11Yeah, ever since Wrestlemania when he turned his back on Roman Reigns.
00:56:15And now L.A. Knight to the top rope.
00:56:17Knight now.
00:56:19Tremendous athleticism.
00:56:20Does he have enough left in the core with the injured midsection?
00:56:23No.
00:56:24Rollins able to slip underneath.
00:56:27And Rollins with a buckle bomb.
00:56:31Always got a solution.
00:56:33That is the Seth freaking Rollins way.
00:56:35Went for the stomp L.A. Knight.
00:56:37With Rollins up.
00:56:39And his midsection gave out again.
00:56:42And Rollins with a kick to the face.
00:56:44Unique suplex attempt there from L.A. Knight.
00:56:46Simply didn't have the power left in that frame.
00:56:49That heavily fatigued body that has absorbed so much abuse of late.
00:56:54And it's about to get even worse.
00:56:56And now Rollins.
00:56:57Oh, and there's that flying senton.
00:56:58Springboard senton by Rollins.
00:57:01And now a moonsault lands on his feet.
00:57:02May have tweaked his knee.
00:57:04We saw Seth favor the knee this past Monday.
00:57:06May have tweaked it again.
00:57:07And now L.A. Knight with an opportunity.
00:57:10Rollins into the corner.
00:57:11The official there to check on Rollins.
00:57:12Oh, no.
00:57:14This could be a serious situation here.
00:57:18Rollins tweaking his knee.
00:57:19Heyman over to check on his man.
00:57:21That is a knee that has been surgically repaired in the past.
00:57:25Generally heavily strapped up.
00:57:27And that is a look of panic in the eye of Seth freaking Rollins.
00:57:31And that is not what you want to see.
00:57:32Well, panic on the face of Paul Heyman as well.
00:57:36As a superstar, you know full well when you've done yourself a major mischief.
00:57:40I can speak to that.
00:57:40Well, and look at this way.
00:57:41The doctor, the ringside doctor now is over consulting with the official on the situation with Rollins.
00:57:49He's in Seth's knee.
00:57:53He might just suck the wind out of this arena.
00:57:56Well, we talked about the fact he tweaked that knee earlier this week.
00:58:11Rollins hobbling back up into the corner.
00:58:14L.A. Knight.
00:58:14BFT!
00:58:16BFT!
00:58:16By L.A. Knight!
00:58:17Cover down!
00:58:18The hook of the leg at night with the win!
00:58:23Here is your winner, L.A. Knight!
00:58:28Well, it's a win, but it is not the kind of victory that L.A. Knight came for tonight.
00:58:33And that is a bleak sight seeing Seth freaking Rollins down and out.
00:58:39And that is a truly catastrophic moment here at Saturday night's main event.
00:58:45Well, undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez faces undefeated three-division king Terrence Bud Crawford in a historic class that transcends titles at Saturday, September 13th, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.
00:59:02This is a once-in-a-lifetime event that marks the beginning of a bold new era in boxing.
00:59:07Register now for access to pre-sale tickets before they go on sale to the general public at WWE.com slash boxing.
00:59:14Well, let's take another look at what happened to Seth Rollins, a very serious situation moments ago.
00:59:21Rollins tweaking the knee once again, but it appears to be much more serious than we first thought.
00:59:26As you take a look at Rollins now, coming off the second rope, looking for a moonsault, landed on his feet, his knee buckled.
00:59:33You saw him go right to the knee.
00:59:34He collapsed in the corner.
00:59:36He told the doctor he could continue, and L.A. Knight would deliver the VFT.
00:59:41So, best wishes to Seth Rollins as he's helped to the back now.
00:59:46Yeah, we say it time and time again.
00:59:47It is a dangerous world inside those ropes, Seth.
00:59:50We are hoping for the best for you.
00:59:52Good luck.
00:59:52And coming up next, it's our main event.
00:59:55In an interview with CBS Sports this week, Goldberg acknowledged the enormity of this moment.
01:00:00He said, not many people have the opportunity to go out on their own terms.
01:00:05That is a quote.
01:00:06So, this is truly a privilege for me tonight.
01:00:09Up next, Goldberg, Gunther, for the world title.
01:00:18Gunther.
01:00:19Gunther, a few months ago, you started something with me and my family in Atlanta, Georgia.
01:00:27Gage, I really hope for you that Bill is a better father than he is a professional wrestler.
01:00:37I am going to make sure that I end it in Atlanta, Georgia.
01:00:44Saturday night, main event.
01:00:46You're next!
01:00:55I am next!
01:00:58Usually being next means getting speared, jackhammer, one, two, three.
01:01:05But it is not 1999 anymore.
01:01:08And right now, I'm the guy!
01:01:14Bill Goldberg is not capable of taking the World Heavyweight Championship away from me.
01:01:19At Saturday night's main event, I'm going to bully you.
01:01:23And the myth of Bill Goldberg forever dies!
01:01:28I don't care if I've got one foot in the grave.
01:01:44Nobody's ever going to talk to me like that.
01:01:49Gunther, you're next!
01:01:53The legendary WWE Hall of Famer will make his final walk to the ring as Goldberg is set to class with the ring general, Gunther.
01:02:06And our main event, next, live on NBC.

01:02:43who tomorrow night at Evolution, 7 Eastern, 4 Pacific, live on Peacock from here in Atlanta.
01:02:49J.C. Jane will defend her NXT Women's Championship against Jordan Grace, live at Evolution.

01:03:01Three former friends, now bitter enemies, Bayley versus Lyra Valkyria versus the champ, Becky Lynch.
01:03:08Chris Stratus looks to win her historic 8th championship, but she's going to have to knock off Tiffany Strat to do it.
01:03:14It will be Tiffany time or Trishy time tomorrow night at Evolution.
01:03:18WWE Women's Tag Team Championship, Fatal 4-Way, one team from Raw, one team from SmackDown,
01:03:24one team from NXT, and the current tag champs, gold on the line in that Fatal 4-Way.

01:03:35Queen of the Ring, Jake Cargill, Miss Money in the Bank, Naomi, go at it at Evolution.
01:03:40And of course, Bianca Belair, the special guest referee.
01:03:43And at the beginning of September, we will have Clash in Paris.
01:03:47Somebody is going to win themselves a Women's Championship match.
01:03:50They're going to do it tomorrow night at Evolution in a major battle royale featuring a who's who,
01:03:56including the returning legend, Nikki Bala.
01:03:59And the main event for the World Championship.
01:04:02Neo Sky prevents the title against a woman who has never beaten her, Rhea Ripley.
01:04:07It's Evolution tomorrow night, live from Atlanta, 7 Eastern, 4 Pacific, exclusively on Peacock.
01:04:14Breaking news now.
01:04:16You heard Jelly Roll saying earlier tonight that he wants Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre.
01:04:20Well, he's going to get his wish.
01:04:21It's going to happen at SummerSlam.
01:04:23Tag team matchup.
01:04:24Randy Orton teaming with Jelly Roll against Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul at SummerSlam.
01:04:32All the stars that are here tonight, including this man, 2 Chainz, Atlanta-based rapper, Grammy Award winner,
01:04:43multi-platinum, 2 Chainz getting set for our main event at Saturday night's main event.
01:04:51At Saturday night's main event, this is presented by Jimmy John's.
01:04:55Try Jimmy John's new toasted sandwiches today.
01:04:59Can we order Jimmy John's?
01:05:01I know you've worked up an appetite tonight with all of those reads,
01:05:05but what a night it has been thus far, and it's about to get even better.
01:05:08Well, ladies and gentlemen, Wade Barrett and I had a very interesting conversation with this man,
01:05:32the world champion, Gunther, earlier today.
01:05:34I thought he'd be more humble when I asked him the question about how he felt having Goldberg's last match of his career.
01:05:42Yeah, well, you apparently frequently get the temperature wrong, Michael Cole,
01:05:45because sentimentality is a treat for weak men.
01:05:49Gunther told us,
01:05:51I am here to humiliate this man who has no place in my industry.
01:05:56I am here to extinguish this stain that is Goldberg for good.
01:06:02Wade, you have to wonder, is Gunther perhaps looking past the 58-year-old Goldberg tonight
01:06:08to the threat that looms on the horizon of possibly CM Punk or maybe Seth Rollins,
01:06:13depending on what happened with the injury tonight.
01:06:14But is Gunther looking past Goldberg tonight?
01:06:17There is a golden rule in the fight game.
01:06:20And the last thing a heavyweight ever loses is his punch.
01:06:24We saw that this past Monday on Raw when Goldberg dropped the ring general
01:06:30with a sweet right hook to the jaw.
01:06:32Bill is tired.
01:06:56Bill is tired.
01:06:56Bill is tired.

01:11:52Let's go.
01:11:54Let's go.
01:11:56Let's go.
01:11:58Now this one coming from the head earlier tonight.
01:12:00Goldberg has to end this quickly.
01:12:02The longer it goes, the more this will favor the big Austrian champ.
01:12:07You don't get great gas mileage when you get up there in years.
01:12:11That is an athletic rule.
01:12:13And the longer this goes for Goldberg those
01:12:16opportunities of victory diminish.
01:12:21Schock having a little effect on Goldberg who breaks
01:12:24out in that trademark smile and laugh.
01:12:28Cutler said he would not be intimidated by the intensity of Goldberg but it's
01:12:33a different story when you're face-to-face with the Hall of Famer two
01:12:36men who are simply built for the Gunther now realizing perhaps the size of the
01:12:43task that lies ahead of him and what about the task that lies ahead of Goldberg
01:12:48this is his first match in over three years his last match 2022 the
01:12:52Elimination Chamber here in WWE and Goldberg taking the fight to Gunther
01:12:57your hometown your family's here retirement hanging over you the end of
01:13:02a career you have to be a cold ruthless fighting machine in that ring but there's
01:13:08so much emotion bubbling inside of Goldberg he has to keep that locked down the big
01:13:15heavyweight boxer coming out of retirement does he have that one big blow left
01:13:19this Goldberg have one spear left does he have one jackhammer left now you
01:13:23you mentioned a little earlier that Goldberg had said in an interview he has physical ailments one of
01:13:28which was that knee and look at it he's got a brace on the left knee well I thought that was absolute insanity
01:13:33insanity you've got a prep being like Gunther who absorbs this kind of information
01:13:38targeting that knee of Goldberg and now the power of Goldberg sending Gunther to the center of the
01:13:43ring and the champ's in trouble yeah I'm impressed with Goldberg in the early go in
01:13:47that raw power coming to the floor and he's stalking Gunther
01:13:51Goldberg looking for a spear and Gunther moving out of harm's way
01:13:55and Gunther you see the expression on Goldberg's face feel like that that may have been his opportunity
01:14:01that may have been his moment well that's frustration on Goldberg you let that chance slip
01:14:06away you may not get another one against the competitor as good as well rounded as the world heavyweight
01:14:13champ Gunther well I've been impressed so far with the the way that Goldberg is taking the fight but
01:14:17again Gunther's a bad knee now a chop to Goldberg and Goldberg trying to fight it off another chop by
01:14:22the champ and I'll tell you I've never seen anybody shrug off those chops quite like Goldberg has thus far
01:14:28they're registering they're stinging but they're not dropping the big man and Gunther sent toward
01:14:33the corner Goldberg left the spear and Goldberg through the barricade into the timekeepers area
01:14:38Gunther able to move out of harm's way Goldberg exploding the barricade with a spear and Goldberg's
01:14:44in trouble could be a golden opportunity for the world champ
01:14:47Gunther has turned his attention to the injured knee
01:14:55that brace covering the left knee of Goldberg Gunther has been attacking that knee throughout the break
01:15:01yes he has Gunther is precision and discipline Goldberg is destruction incarnate and we saw that destruction against our barricade a few minutes ago and it may well have destroyed Goldberg's chances in this match he hasn't looked the same since
01:15:05Goldberg trying to dig down deep final time in his career in the ring this time for the world title
01:15:09it has adopted hometown of Atlanta and Goldberg fighting back now Goldberg's got a little bit left tapping into the energy of this hometown audience one last dance for the champ
01:15:22yeah right dance maybe over here right back to the knee as Goldberg collapses in the ring well Gunther just did his homework did his prep work and has executed almost from the word go to the end of the ring
01:15:29Goldberg's got a little bit left Tapping into the energy of this hometown of Atlanta and Goldberg's got a little bit left Tapping into the energy of this hometown audience one last dance for the champ
01:15:37yeah right dance maybe over here right back to the name as Goldberg collapses in the ring well Gunther just did his homework did his prep work and has executed almost from the word go tonight that feeling out process early was all Goldberg but it's changed in a big way now
01:15:57yeah this match so far has been the blueprint of company throughout his career intimidate physically overpower
01:16:04come on Goldberg
01:16:06come on Goldberg
01:16:07what do you wanna do?
01:16:08trash talk
01:16:09to embarrass Goldberg here but that may be a major error
01:16:12from the ring general the flurry from Goldberg not enough to drop the world heavyweight champion
01:16:18it's hard to intimidate the master of intimidation in the power
01:16:21five buster by Goldberg
01:16:23on one good leg there is still fight in the former champ in the legend
01:16:30he's hurting he's stumbling but this warrior is gonna go out on his shield tonight win lose or draw
01:16:38again the knee buckling as he use it to deliver a blow to Gunther
01:16:42now the body shots in the corner
01:16:44Gunther with a chop and another one
01:16:50the world champ exploded out of the corner
01:16:53Goldberg is just so hampered when he gets on the offensive sometimes he's not able to follow up a flurry
01:16:59allowing the ring general to recover but that may have turned the tide
01:17:05yeah that's why Goldberg's got to keep Gunther close the separation does not help him
01:17:09Goldberg notorious for those heavy hands those heavy boots
01:17:13and throwing it all the way of the ring general
01:17:16yeah but Goldberg heavily favoring the uh the injured knee
01:17:20and again Gunther now
01:17:22and Goldberg able to backbotties lock the champ
01:17:26Ross says he was locked in for that power bomb that Gunther is known for and wait on the stance
01:17:31Goldberg now oh no
01:17:33spearing the official Charles Robinson
01:17:37inadvertently as Gunther moved out of harm's way
01:17:41oh god Charles Robinson once again taking the breath of a major attack there
01:17:47you're right completely in that burden
01:17:49such was the nimble feet of the ring general
01:17:52and now Gunther from behind right back to the knee of Goldberg
01:17:57the officials down and Gunther can do whatever he wants now
01:18:01and we're gonna need another referee
01:18:03Charles Robinson will not be getting up from that spear
01:18:06and Goldberg in trouble as Gunther looks to rip the protective knee brace from the knee of the icon
01:18:12just tearing away at will now
01:18:15is the ring general looking to humiliate Goldberg
01:18:19well not just humiliate him but destroy him damage him
01:18:24Gunther has previously been about the sport proving he's the greatest on the planet
01:18:29this is something very different
01:18:32refusing to be embarrassed by the return of a former great in Goldberg
01:18:38this is a statement from the world heavyweight champ
01:18:42Goldberg one of the toughest men in the history of professional wrestling
01:18:47but he has a vulnerability
01:18:50and that of course the injured knee
01:18:52and now the knee is exposed as Gunther begins to use the protective brace as a weapon
01:18:57there's no official out here to stop any of this
01:19:00Goldberg clearly out of his prime physically
01:19:03but the mind, the body, the heart wants to fight on
01:19:06you have to respect now
01:19:08right to the back of the head of Goldberg
01:19:10hope really beginning to slip away now
01:19:13of a dream ending for a legendary career
01:19:17and Gunther now over toward a
01:19:32that is Bill's son Gage
01:19:34his wife Wanda's out there as well
01:19:36get your ass down
01:19:38get your ass down
01:19:39get your ass down
01:19:40get your ass down
01:19:41get your ass down
01:19:42get your ass down
01:19:43oh Gage's not gonna take that
01:19:44he's over the barricade
01:19:45remember he was at the home of this
01:19:47when it all began in Atlanta last year
01:19:49when Gunther humiliated Goldberg and his family here in his hometown
01:19:53well I think it's lucky for Gage and our security were on the ball for once
01:19:58that could have ended incredibly badly for Goldberg's kick
01:20:02now Goldberg!
01:20:03spear!
01:20:04Goldberg hit the spear!
01:20:05Goldberg hit the spear at Gunther!

01:20:10does Goldberg have one jackhammer left?
01:20:23he does!
01:20:28oh my god
01:20:29jackhammer
01:20:30it's up
01:20:31and there's a new official
01:20:33Sean Bennett rested in the ring but again the bad knee
01:20:36not allowing Goldberg to go into the cover right away
01:20:39dragging himself
01:20:40falls into the cover
01:20:41shoulders down
01:20:43Gunther kicked out at 2
01:20:44Gunther kicked out at 2
01:20:46off the jackhammer by Goldberg
01:20:50oh my god
01:20:53Gunther completely taking his eye off the ball
01:20:57thinking this was a parade
01:20:59getting distracted
01:21:00by Goldberg's kid at ringside
01:21:03Goldberg pouncing
01:21:05now the big one-two whammy
01:21:07with that jackhammer

01:21:23grabbing anything he can
01:21:24but that is 16 deep
01:21:26and Goldberg now fading
01:21:28Goldberg is fading
01:21:30Goldberg with one last gasp
01:21:32to break the sleeper
01:21:34Goldberg fighting back
01:21:36long to his belly
01:21:37Gunther still with the sleeper locked in
