Saturday's Night Main Event _July 12, 2025 - Seth Rollins Vs LA Knight
Transcript
00:00I don't like it at all.
00:01Well, nonetheless, the Hall of Famers are out tonight.
00:03The Steiners, Rick and Scott.
00:05Scott had a number of matches over the years, of course,
00:07with Goldberg.
00:08Scott won at Fall World.
00:09Goldberg in a steel cage on Nitro.
00:11Of course, Rick teamed with Goldberg before,
00:14and also a handful of singles matches
00:16with the icon, Goldberg, in the main event tonight.
00:19Two of the baddest dudes in the history of this industry.
00:30Goldberg in a steel cage.
00:58The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
01:02Making his way to the ring, being accompanied by WWE Hall of Famer,
01:07the Oracle, Paul Heyman, from Devonport, Iowa.
01:13Weighing in at 225 pounds, he is the 2025 Mr. Money in the Bank,
01:21Seth Frickin' Rollins.
01:28Let's not lose sight of the fact that Paul Heyman is, of course,
01:34carrying the Money in the Bank briefcase.
01:36Inside is a contract that Seth Rollins can cash in at any place at any time
01:40for a World Championship opportunity.
01:43Knowing that Gunther and Goldberg,
01:45to add it in our main event in moments here on Saturday night's main event.
01:49Could tonight be the night?
01:53A briefcase that in the right hands is as good as gold,
01:57and I would argue that in the hands of the Oracle, Paul Heyman,
02:02those are exactly the circumstances by which that gets converted to gold in the blink of an eye.
02:09Keep your eyes peeled.
02:10And here's opponent, from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 240 pounds, Al A. Knight.
02:32It's been a tumultuous week for L.A. Knight and Seth Rollins this past Monday night on Raw.
02:37Our main event, Seth Rollins and Penta.
02:40Rollins with a stomp and the win over Penta, and then it was a hit-and-run attack by L.A. Knight,
02:48who would deliver a BFT to Rollins and then escape before Bronson and Braun could get to it.
02:54And then last night on Friday night SmackDown, a different case.
02:58This was the Megastar, post-victory, open to abuse and attack from two members of that power trio,
03:07Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed.
03:10You question just where the health of the Megastar is right now,
03:1424 hours removed from that particular attack.
03:18Yeah, no tape on the ribs, but you have to believe that midsection of L.A. Knight is smarting here tonight.
03:24For L.A. Knight, a massive opportunity against Mr. Money in the Bank.
03:28Knight said, quote, I want your dignity, I want justice, to be honest, I just want to hurt you.
03:35This all began back the night before Money in the Bank last month.
03:40Rollins and company targeted his opponents in that match, including L.A. Knight.
03:44And Wade, since that moment, L.A. Knight has not forgotten.
03:48Well, he's not forgotten.
03:49He was also taken out of the King of the Ring tournament, thanks to attacks from Seth Rollins
03:54and crew, so Seth Rollins and his men have really hamstrung the career of L.A.
04:00Knight in recent months, and he's not gonna let that lie.
04:02Two-time United States Champion, L.A. Knight, battling the five-time World Champion,
04:07Seth Rollins.
04:08Ooh.
04:09It was a good shot to the gut there, registered a little too hard.
04:12And a high elbow.
04:14Perhaps a little sign of that attack from last night coming to the floor early here.
04:19And now L.A. Knight.
04:21Again, those ribs just collapsing, going for that falcon arrow or suplex, and wait a second.
04:25Looking for a pedigree, and L.A. Knight for the BFT, blocked by Seth Rollins.
04:30And Rollins now launched outside the ring to the floor.
04:33Can't argue beating Seth freaking Rollins when you're not at 100%.
04:37Oh!
04:38May not actually be possible, but blocking out that pain right now apparently is the Mega
04:44Star tapping into that Kvorka that is running wild in this arena.
04:49Rollins bounced off our announce table, which has become a playground for our Superstars here tonight.
04:55And I don't think he's done yet, Rollins bounced right into our announce table.
05:03Yeah, not quite enough damage was done to the announce table apparently.
05:07Let's finish the job, why don't we?
05:09And now L.A. Knight, clothesline, he'd hit Rollins hard.
05:13You could hear that thump, L.A. Knight in control.
05:20Body scissors applied by Seth Rollins here, live in Atlanta.
05:24Nearly 12,000 on hand for this match between Rollins and L.A. Knight, Seth's taking control.
05:30Yeah, and I don't understand the Mega Star's behavior of late.
05:33I've sung his praises from the very beginning, but all the Kvorka in the wall cannot explain
05:38why L.A. Knight is dicing with death, taking on Solo Sokoa's MFTs on SmackDown
05:44and Seth Rollins' power trio on Raw simultaneously.
05:48I mean, I can credit it might not be a wise thing to do, but you gotta praise him for having the bravery to do it.
05:55Bravery is one thing. How much a glutton for punishment can one man be?
05:59Everyone has their limits, even Mega Stars, and we may well have found that limit tonight.
06:05Rollins, oh, and a knee right to the midsection.
06:07Great strategy by the architect Seth Rollins, the visionary now.
06:11Heading up to the top rope, looking to put L.A. Knight away.
06:14Frost splash to the injured midsection and ribs.
06:17Rollins for the win, hook of the leg, and a kick out.
06:20And what was it L.A. Knight said? It was a quote from you.
06:22I want to hurt you tonight, Seth Rollins.
06:25Well, that has done a complete 180. It is the Mega Star who is in severe danger here tonight,
06:31thanks to this abuse from Seth Freakin' Rollins.
06:34WWE fans here chanting L.A. Knight as Rollins looks to quiet the masses.
06:50Chance can help, chance can pull you through, but-
06:53But at the end of the day, they're still singing my song.
06:57Anybody ever champion?
06:58No, they're chanting for my opponents, that's why I kept losing.
07:00My song.
07:01Oh, and L.A. Knight blocked it right.
07:05Now Knight trying to fight back, perhaps on adrenaline alone.
07:09Blocked it right, and he's now blocking out the clear pain in that midsection.
07:12But if somehow it's working, tapping into that frenzy in this arena.
07:16Oh, once again, one shot and down is the mega star.
07:21And L.A. Knight with a close line.
07:24And now Knight looking to rally.
07:27Oh, and a neck breaker.
07:29What a flurry here from L.A. Knight just went.
07:32DDT.
07:33He was looking written off.
07:36As good as new.
07:38And Carl, whose game is this?
07:46L.A. Knight.
07:48Yeah.
07:50Elbow delivered.
07:52Knight, cover.
07:53One, two.
07:55And Rollins kicks it too.
07:57And this just exemplifies the abilities of the absolute top superstars in the game.
08:02Blocking out that pain and turning this one on a six punch.
08:06Taking full control of the match.
08:08Almost putting away the visionary Seth freaking Rollins.
08:14What else does L.A. Knight have in store here?
08:16And if you're Rollins, a lot of pressure, Wade.
08:19You can ill afford a loss with all the momentum you're trying to build with this
08:22new group of Breaker and Reed and Heyman and Rollins.
08:25Get the money in the bank briefcase.
08:27You've got the Oracle, Paul Heyman, the uncheckable power of Reed and Breaker.
08:33You don't wanna be the figurehead of that crew and pulling out
08:36losses when the deck was initially stacked in your favor.
08:39L.A. Knight fighting through the pain, the injured midsection.
08:42Looking for the BFT.
08:43Seth Rollins gonna make his way out to the apron.
08:46Averting disaster there.
08:48Best footwork in the game.
08:50Seth freaking Rollins for the past ten plus years.
08:54Gonna move faster than anyone when he needs to.
08:57And boy, did he need to.
08:58Averting danger from that BFT and turning this one in his own favor.
09:04And Rollins went to the top rope.
09:06L.A. Knight made him pay.
09:07Looking concerned on the face of Paul Heyman.
09:09As Heyman looks on down on the apron and a big chop by L.A. Knight.
09:15Remember, Heyman is hooked to everything in his career, to Seth Rollins.
09:22Constantly hooked himself to success.
09:26That has been the modus operandum of Paul Heyman from the very beginning.
09:32Yeah, ever since WrestleMania when he turned his back on Roman Reigns.
09:36And now L.A. Knight to the top rope.
09:38Knight now.
09:39Tremendous athleticism.
09:41Does he have enough left in the core with the injured midsection?
09:44No.
09:44Rollins able to slip underneath.
09:46And Rollins with a buckle bomb.
09:52Always got a solution.
09:53That is the Seth freaking Rollins way.
09:55Went for the stomp L.A. Knight with Rollins up.
09:59And his midsection came out again.
10:02And Rollins with a kick to the face.
10:04Unique suplex attempt there from L.A. Knight simply didn't have the power left in that frame.
10:09That heavily fatigued body that has absorbed so much abuse of late.
10:15And it's about to get even worse.
10:16And now Rollins.
10:18And there's that flying senton.
10:19Springboard senton by Rollins.
10:21And now a moonsault lands on his feet.
10:23May have tweaked his knee.
10:24We saw Seth favor the knee this past Monday.
10:27May have tweaked it again.
10:28And now L.A. Knight with an opportunity.
10:30Rollins into the corner, the official there to check on Rollins.
10:33No.
10:35This could be a serious situation here.
10:39Rollins tweaking his knee, Heyman over to check on his man.
10:42That is a knee that has been surgically repaired in the past.
10:46Generally heavily strapped up.
10:48And that is a look of panic in the eye of Seth freaking Rollins.
10:51And that is not what you want to see.
10:52Well, panic on the face of Paul Heyman as well as.
10:56As a superstar, you know full well when you've done yourself a major mischief.
11:00I can speak to that.
11:01And look at this way, the doctor, the ringside doctor now is over consulting with the official
11:08on the situation with Rollins and Seth's knee.
11:13I know it's just sucked the wind out of this arena.
11:16Well, we talked about the fact he tweaked that knee earlier this week.
11:22Rollins up hobbling back up into the corner.
11:34LA Knight, BFT, BFT by LA Knight.
11:38Cover down, hook of the leg and Knight with the win.
11:44Here is your winner, LA Knight.
11:49Well, it's a win, but it is not the kind of victory that LA Knight came for tonight.
11:53And that is a bleak sight seeing Seth freaking Rollins down and out.
11:59And that is a truly catastrophic moment here at Saturday night's main event.
12:10Well, undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez faces undefeated
12:15three-division King Terrence Bud Crawford in a historic class that transcends titles at
12:19Saturday, September 13th at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.
12:23This is a once-in-a-lifetime event that marks the beginning of a bold new era in boxing.
12:27Register now for access to pre-sale tickets before they go on sale to the general public
12:32at WWE.com slash boxing.
12:36Well, let's take another look at what happened to Seth Rollins.
12:39It was a very serious situation moments ago.
12:41Rollins tweaking the knee once again, but it appears to be much more serious than we
12:46first thought.
12:47As you take a look at Rollins now, coming off the second rope, looking for a moonsault.
12:52Landed on his feet and his knee buckled.
12:53You saw him go right to the knee.
12:55He collapsed to the corner.
12:56He told the doctor he could continue and LA Knight would deliver the VL.
