00:00Then, now, forever, together.
00:30Then, now, forever, together.
01:00I can't lose, I can't lose, I can't lose, I can't lose, I can't lose, I can't lose, I can't lose.
01:07Fresh off of our Atlanta takeover, we now sit just two weeks from the biggest party of the summer in New Jersey, SummerSlam.
01:14Welcome to Main Event.
01:15The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
01:22Introducing first, accompanied by Natalya and Akira Tadala, representing Alpha Academy, Maxine Dupree.
01:34We're getting the action started here with an Alpha Babe turned Dungeon Doll, who has certainly been making some major in-ring strides as of late.
01:43Training alongside...
01:44The Boat.
01:45It's certainly great to see Akira Tozawa back here on Main Event.
01:52We welcome you in, Blake Howard, alongside the voice of NXT, or shall I say, Nostradamus himself, Vic Joseph.
01:58Oh, stop, I'm not one to say I told you so, but last Saturday, my prediction came true, Stephanie Bacare would win.
02:05The Women's Evolution Battle Royal now has a golden opportunity in Paris at the end of August.
02:12It is good to see Tozawa back out here, by the way.
02:16He's naming a monster.
02:26And her opponent, accompanied by the Creed Brothers, representing American-made, IP Nile!
02:38Oh, my God.
02:39Well, the stoic pitfall is back for more here on Main Event, flanked by the Brothers Creed, her seventh appearance of the year here on Main Event.
02:46And she continues to knock on the door of major success in the women's division.
02:50I've got to be honest here.
02:51I don't necessarily disagree with the WWE Universe.
02:57Oh, I'm not necessarily a fashionista.
02:59I leave that up to my wife.
03:01But Julius and Brutus are very fashionable tonight.
03:05And I don't know who has more fashion sense this evening, the Brothers Creed or Natalya.
03:10Do you see the hat?
03:11Well, Natalya, Maxine Dupree, always very fashionable.
03:14I know you've pointed out Brutus Creed's haircut in the past.
03:17Oh, the haircut, yeah, I'll digress a little bit.
03:20But do you see the satchel that Julius is wearing with the matching Zumba pants?
03:24Byron Saxon-esque.
03:25Oh, and now you just ruined it.
03:26So now I tip the cap back over to Natalya as this matchup gets underway.
03:30And Ivy showcasing that power, showcasing that strength.
03:34I think you mentioned Stephanie Vaquer.
03:35Of course, we saw the pit bull one-on-one last week with Vaquer here on Main Event.
03:39But both of these superstars...
03:40Oh, no quick cover.
03:41Both of these superstars are part of that battle royal this past Sunday at Evolution.
03:45And now Vaquer earning that opportunity at Clash in Paris.
03:48Yeah, we're talking about Stephanie already, but I just want to give a shout-out to all the women that were involved.
03:52All the legends that returned.
03:53And everybody from in-ring competitors to the referees that were on hand.
03:58It was an amazing event to be a part of in Atlanta last Sunday.
04:02As Maxine Dupree starting to cook right here.
04:04Vic, of course, at one time, these two great friends.
04:07We certainly saw how things have gone over the last year or so.
04:10And Mac...
04:11Oh!
04:12That's one way to shut her down.
04:14Yeah, Maxine almost got knocked into last year after that lariat from Ivy Nile.
04:18But they were friends, right?
04:20It was a great point you brought up.
04:21Tag teamed a number of times, obviously had a bond that grew down to the Performance Center in Orlando during their time at NXT.
04:28But this is a different Ivy Nile.
04:30This is a more focused Ivy Nile.
04:32Dare I say, a more dangerous Ivy Nile.
04:35We talked about last week pushing Stephanie Vaquer to the limit.
04:38Also recently, an action against Kairi Sane here on Main Event.
04:41Vic, is the Pitbull now on a new level?
04:43I think she is, and I think that level is continuing to grow, and it's everything she's learned from Master Chad Gable into the cover.
04:49Here we go, hooks that outside leg as Ivy.
04:51And along with the Creed brothers we talked about, and I think Ivy, and Maxine, and Natalya for that matter.
04:56I think all eyes of the women's division right now are wide open.
04:59Not only on the World Heavyweight title there on Monday Night Raw, but also the Intercontinental title.
05:05Because coming up at SummerSlam in New York, MetLife Stadium, it will be Lyra Valkyria and the man Becky Lynch.
05:13And you want to talk about Tess this past Monday on Raw, two out of three falls with Bayley.
05:17We'll see that coming up a little bit later on here on Main Event, Vic, as the women's division heating up all around the WWE.
05:23Certainly is, and it really is almost springboarding from Evolution.
05:26I even go back to Great American Match, J.C. Jane, Fallon Henley, Jordan Grace, Blake Monroe.
05:32I mean, all the women, even in NXT, doing such an amazing job.
05:35But I still can't get over Blake Monroe turning her back on Jordan Grace at Evolution.
05:41Talking about making an impact in the NXT women's division.
05:43Blake Monroe officially has arrived and made a big statement this past weekend.
05:47She'll be competing this Tuesday on NXT when we are live in Houston.
05:52And Vic, we talk about hard workers here, taking a look, Raw, SmackDown, NXT.
05:56Who works harder than the Pitbull in the women's division?
05:59Well, I think Maxine, you've got to give her credit.
06:01She's put a lot of time in inside the dungeon with Natalya on the inside.
06:05Nice German suplex.
06:06Of the release variety, hooks that inside leg, Ivy stacks up Maxine.
06:10But I do appreciate you trying to stir the pot with that question.
06:13Trying to make me pick somebody, trying to make me show favoritism.
06:16Listen, we saw you last week.
06:17You certainly picked the winner in Stephanie Viqueiro.
06:19Well, I mean, that was a matchup.
06:20I had to pick a winner, right?
06:23Ivy Nile- Again, stirring the pot.
06:25Give me your spoon.
06:26I don't have a spoon.
06:27Is Ivy Nile right now stirring things up inside the ring?
06:29But Maxine Dupree, Vic, this is an entirely different superstar than when she first
06:35arrived in the WWE.
06:36It's a more focus, Maxine Dupree, on what has to be done inside the ring.
06:41We talk about the focus of Ivy Nile.
06:43We know how determined she is in the weight room.
06:45And for Maxine Dupree, she had to learn professional wrestling.
06:49And she's learning from the boat.
06:50And you're seeing some of those skills be picked up right here and right now.
06:54Something we'll have to give in this one, of course.
06:56This is a rematch from most recently in June.
06:58They're one and one on the year.
07:00They competed against each other last year on Raw.
07:02But it's an entirely different scene this time around.
07:05Oh.
07:06As Maxine getting the best of Ivy right here.
07:10Brutus out here in his red jacket looking like the Kool-Aid man walking back and forth.
07:13He's getting upset.
07:15Snips off the DDT.
07:16And Maxine, that training in the dungeon, paying off right here, Vic.
07:19Creed Brothers right now beside themselves.
07:22And Maxine is feeling it.
07:26And the Alpha Babe with Tozawa back.
07:29Doing it for Otis.
07:30Feeling it right here on Main Event.
07:35Oh.
07:36But there's Julius Creed.
07:37Yeah, well, there's Natalya.
07:39Looking to even the odds.
07:40As Julius and Brutus trying to get involved in this one here, Vic.
07:45I don't want none of the time.
07:48Tozawa.
07:50The stamina monster is certainly back.
07:52But Ivy looking to capitalize right here.
07:55Big kick.
07:56Maxine wiping out the pit bull.
07:58Dupree.
07:59Vic, she's going to rarefied air right here.
08:00Say that again.
08:02Going all the way up top.
08:04Dupree.
08:04Can she fly?
08:06Oh.
08:06Nice counter.
08:08Look at the strength.
08:08We always talk about the power from a deadlift position, Vic.
08:12Look at Ivy Nile.
08:13Check out the balance, too, of Nile.
08:16Has Dupree up.
08:17Oh.
08:18And Maxine.
08:19Counter, counter, counter.
08:19This counter.
08:21Oh, and Nile hooks the inside leg.
08:23The foot on the rope.
08:27Here is your winner, Ivy Nile.
08:31Ivy Nile just stole this matchup tonight from Maxine Dupree.
08:37Brutus Creed celebrating like they won the World Series.
08:41Unbelievable turn of events right here.
08:43The pit bull clenches her teeth to victory and gets right back on track with this win here on Main Event.
08:52Ivy Nile with an impressive win to kick things off on Main Event.
08:55And there's plenty of action still to come.
08:57And Austin Theory squares off against El Grande Americano tonight.
09:01But right now, let's look at the incredible highlights from Saturday Night's Main Event and WWE Evolution last weekend in Atlanta.
09:11Welcome to Atlanta.
09:13And what a weekend.
09:15This weekend, WWE is absolutely taking over the city.
09:19Everyone is buzzing about this spectacle.
09:23Oh my, the crowd here.
09:25They were loud.
09:26They were vocal.
09:27They were into everything they saw.
09:29Might be one of the loudest crowds we've seen in the States this year.
09:32They're on their feet in Atlanta.
09:34Randy Orton and Jelly Roll in front of nearly 12,000.
09:38You're in the long run, buddy.
09:43Logan Paul dropped by Jelly Roll.
09:45Here comes Evolution.
09:55Why should people be watching?
09:56The women constantly are still in the show.
09:58So now to give the fans another opportunity to see all women matches, it's pure magic.
10:07Lights like tonight remind you why you watch wrestling.
10:11We built the foundation that they built a skyscraper on.
10:14Devils cast Stephanie McCarney is going to Paris.
10:18Every woman before us, thank you.
10:22Because now we can make history.
10:27Rollins looking for a moonsault.
10:29He's buckled.
10:30LNA, BFT.
10:32That is a bleak sight seeing Rollins down and out.
10:37I'll tell you right now, this is the coolest pick I have ever seen.
10:41I am the definition of this business, and tonight I've proved it once again.
10:48From a humble beginning, the multi-world titles of WWE, this is it.
10:54The final time we witness the greatness that is Goldberg.
10:59Now Goldberg, spear!
11:03Goldberg hit the spear!
11:05Oh my God!
11:11Jackhammer!
11:12The bad knee!
11:13Not allowing Goldberg to go into the cover right away!
11:16And now Gunther with a sleeper!
11:18Goldberg is out!
11:19Gunther retains!
11:20I cannot thank you enough, from the bottom of my heart.
11:27It's been one hell of a ride, and there ain't never gonna be another Goldberg.
11:32Goldberg!
11:33Goldberg!
11:35Goldberg!
11:36Goldberg!
11:37Goldberg!
11:38Goldberg!

13:51Welcome back to Main Event.
14:00We are coming to you from the magic city, Birmingham, Alabama.
14:04And the new Women's World Champion, Naomi, was all smiles as she addressed the capacity crowd inside the legacy arena for the first time since successfully cashed in her money in the bank contract.
14:15And I don't know why y'all sitting up in here trying to act like y'all saw this coming.
14:24Y'all thought I was gonna cash in my money in the bank contract on Tiffany Shredden.
14:31But I warned you.
14:33I warned all of you.
14:36And don't nobody know my next move until I make it.
14:40That's why I'm standing here now as the new Women's World Champion.
14:45And you know what, I'm so done with that foolishness that's going on over there on SmackDown.
14:58Bianca, I want you to take a good cold hard look at this.
15:04Cuz I didn't betray you, I outgrew you.
15:09And if I'm keeping it 100, you and Jade didn't really want me to succeed.
15:23You wanted me as a friend, as a partner, as a third wheel, as a flunky.
15:31As long as it was convenient for you.
15:34As long as you had the upper hand.
15:38What?
15:41Who got the upper hand now, bitches?
15:48Now what's that?
15:55Jade, you might have got your licked back at Evolution.
16:00But I made the history, baby.
16:03And I might be new around here at Raw again.
16:09But all you raggedy heifers back down in the Raw locker room.
16:15I strongly advise you to proceed with caution.
16:23CAUTIOUS!
16:24CAUTIOUS!
16:25CAUTIOUS!
16:26CAUTIOUS!
16:27CAUTIOUS!
16:28CAUTIOUS!

19:29match at that point when naomi cashed in and then naomi with a split leg moonsault would
19:34pin eo to win the championship it's been a while since naomi's held singles gold in wwe

19:49eo eo eo eo eo eo eo eo ĐŃ
20:00Real, with respect, get in line.
20:08I walked into Evolution, the women's world champion.
20:14So Naomi, I will get back my title from you.
20:26I don't know what you just said.
20:30But you and her can get y'all entitled asses out my face into the back of the line.
20:37In the back, the back of the back, back, back.
20:46Get out of my face.
20:50You get out of all face, first of all, you started to all match.
20:53Ladies, ladies, ladies, ladies, ladies, ladies.
20:58Before this gets out of hand, let's take a breath, because what I have to say pertains to all three of you.
21:09First things first, Naomi, congratulations.
21:16Welcome to Monday Night Raw.
21:21You have always made the most out of your moments.
21:23And last night, I gotta say it, the single biggest moment of your professional life.
21:28You do deserve it, congratulations.
21:31EO and Rhea, I get it.
21:35That moment came at your expense, and I understand why you're pissed off.
21:39But I gotta say it, and I don't wanna speak on behalf of the WWE Universe,
21:44but that match you had at Evolution was absolute magic.
21:51Ladies, it's simple.
21:57In three weeks' time, we're at SummerSlam.
21:59And not just any SummerSlam, the very first two-night SummerSlam in the history of WWE.
22:06And that means it's bigger than ever.
22:09That means the attractions have to be bigger.
22:12The box office has to be bigger.
22:14The magic has to be bigger.
22:16And as big as it was last night in Evolution,
22:18we need to blow the proverbial roof off of MetLife Stadium.
22:23And ladies, that's exactly what we're gonna do.
22:28Because it will be EO Sky versus Rhea Ripley versus Naomi for that Women's World Championship.
22:39Ladies, you're gonna make magic at SummerSlam.
22:45Raw General Manager Adam Pearce just made it official.
22:59Naomi will make her first title defense against Rhea Ripley and EO Sky
23:04in a massive triple threat match for the Women's World Championship at SummerSlam in two weeks.
23:11And that's not the only title up for grabs.
23:14After successfully defending the WWE Women's Championship against Triss Stratus at Evolution,
23:19Tiffany Stratton will once again put her title on the line against the Queen of the Ring, Jade Cargill.
23:24Be sure to tune in to the biggest party of the summer, August 2nd and 3rd,
23:28to find out who leaves MetLife Stadium with the gold.
23:31And speaking of gold, after being outwitted by Becky Lynch at WWE Evolution,
23:36both Lyra Valkyria and Bayley are looking to earn another title opportunity
23:40when they square off in a two out of three falls match.
23:43The winner will face Becky Lynch for the Women's Intercontinental Championship at SummerSlam.
23:48Don't go anywhere.
23:49That match is next on Main Event.
23:52Home.
23:53Like a dream.
23:54Oh, Sam!
23:55You walked into my life just like a dream.
24:17Welcome back to Main Event.
24:32Becky Lynch overcame the odds disadvantage, defeating Bayley and Lyra Valkyria in a raucous triple threat match to retain her title at WWE Evolution.
24:42And just 24 hours later, Lyra Valkyria and Bayley faced off once again on Raw.
24:47Only this time, it was one on one in a two out of three falls match.
24:51We pick things up all knotted up at one fall apiece.
24:54Whoever scores the next fall wins the match and earns another shot against the man Becky Lynch for the Women's Intercontinental Championship at SummerSlam.
25:05Once again, the role model looking to grab the advantage of this match.
25:10Lyra, look at this, Bayley Wilfrin now shoulders down.
25:12Is it enough here? Kick out by Valkyria.
25:14Lyra now, jackknife, cover.
25:19Bayley able to kick out.
25:21Near fall after near fall.
25:23Exhaustion setting in, physically and mentally.
25:27Who can dig down deep to put this match away?
25:32Nobody home.
25:34Valkyria moves out of harm's way.
25:36Catches Bayley with a forearm.
25:39Lyra bounced off the apron again.
25:41Man, this has been brutal.
25:43Very resourceful offense from Bayley.
25:47Bayley tried this once earlier.
25:48Got caught.
25:49Got caught again.
25:50Lyra Valkyria intercepting Bayley once again.
25:53But shame on Bayley for almost making the same exact mistake on two separate occasions.
25:58That time with a bad leg.
25:59You're not gonna make it to the top of the division if you keep making the same error.
26:03Here comes Bayley.
26:04Looking for the steps.
26:05Oh, no, no.
26:06Into the steps.
26:07That's gotta do it.
26:08There's no way Lyra's getting up.
26:12And Bayley sending Lyra back into the ring.
26:15Bayley feeling the urgency of the moment.
26:18Looking to make the climb to the top once again.
26:21For a date with the man at SummerSlam.
26:25Elbow to the grab back.
26:27Elbow to the back back.
26:29Cover now by Bayley.
26:31And a kick out by Valkyria.
26:33And now into a crossface.
26:35Into a crossface.
26:37Valkyria trying to hang on.
26:38Is she gonna tap out?
26:40Valkyria with a crossface locked in by Bayley.
26:44Look at Bayley trying to do everything she can to tap Valkyria here.
26:49And head to SummerSlam.
26:50Bayley applying maximum torque to the neck.
26:52In the lower back of Lyra Valkyria who's desperate for a way out.
26:57Lyra's a long way away from the ropes.
26:59Trying to pull her body.
27:00Trying to drag Bayley's body as well.
27:02She's almost there.
27:04Bayley now.
27:04Gonna push herself off the ropes.
27:06A roll through.
27:07Valkyria though.
27:08But Bayley on her shoulders.
27:09Nightwing.
27:11Nightwing.
27:12Lyra's going to SummerSlam.
27:17Here is your winner.
27:19Lyra Valkyria.
27:24What a match.
27:27Silence the doubters.
27:29Make them become believers.
27:32What an effort by both of these women on the heels of an epic triple threat at Evolution.
27:39But it is Lyra Valkyria who has earned the right once again to challenge for the Intercontinental Championship.
27:48After enduring this type of brutality from the outset.
27:53Bayley with the elbow to the small of the back which had been bothering Lyra for the majority of the match.
28:00Right into this cross-face submission.
28:04Bayley looking to roll both herself and Lyra back to mid-ring.
28:08But the grappling background of the Irish woman proves to be all the difference.
28:16Congratulations Lyra Valkyria.
28:18You earned it my friend.
28:19What a match.
28:20A devastated Bayley.
28:22The losing streak continues.
28:24And Lyra Valkyria now going to go face-to-face with her SummerSlam opponent.
28:30Man, what a performance tonight by Valkyria.
28:33That's a career-making performance with everything she had to battle through to win this match.
28:40A career-making effort, no doubt.
28:43But the work is just beginning.
28:46MetLife Stadium Intercontinental Championship on the line.
28:51Lynch and Valkyria are going to run it back.
28:54Two weeks from Saturday, the epic two-night event begins.
28:59Now Valkyria wants her title back.
29:01Big time Beck says, uh-uh.
29:04I'll see you at SummerSlam.
29:08It doesn't get any bigger than this.
29:11The only two superstars to hold the Women's Intercontinental Championship
29:14will square off in a highly anticipated rematch.
29:17When Becky Lynch defends the title against the woman she defeated to become champion,
29:21her former protege, Lyra Valkyria, at SummerSlam.
29:27Coming up on Main Event, Austin Theory looks to get back in the win column
29:31when he collides with the Lucha legend himself, El Grande Americana.
29:35That is next.
29:41This November.
29:43It is quite the feeling here.
29:44It is electric.
29:46The Padres' home field gets a whole new lineup.
29:50When WWE.
29:51An absolutely incredible scene.
29:55It's Petco Park.
29:58A slugfest for the ages.

30:07The epic performance that no one will ever, ever forget.
30:13WWE Survivor Series San Diego.
30:16Tickets on sale now.
30:26Welcome back to Main Event.
30:27WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio recently threw out the first pitch
30:32at the San Diego Padres game at Petco Park.
30:35And as the late, great Bob Uecker would say,
30:37it was just a bit outside.
30:40Rey was in San Diego to promote Survivor Series,
30:42which comes to Petco Park for the very first time on Saturday, November 29th.
30:47Tickets are on sale now via Ticketmaster.
30:53Vic, I know you're ready for this one.
30:55Let's go.
30:56In some ways.
31:04But this is a man who has really changed the perspective of the WWE Universe.
31:10All day.
31:11The following content is scheduled for one fall.
31:18Introducing Kurt, from Atlanta, Georgia,
31:23bringing our 220 pounds, Austin Ferry.
31:30Well, after a major weekend in Atlanta for all brands of the WWE,
31:34Mr. ATL back at it once again here in singles action.
31:37And Vic, that positive reaction you were talking about from the WWE Universe
31:41continues to grow each week.
31:42And it certainly does.
31:44And it doesn't matter what city we're in, what state we're in,
31:47what arena or what stadium around the world.
31:50You just see this ground-crawled support for Theory.
31:54As SummerSlam is presented by Chase Freedom Unlimited,
31:57the official credit card of SummerSlam.
32:00And by Minute Maid, bring the juice.
32:02And by Wingstop, do not miss any of the action.
32:05Get flavor delivered to your door at wingstop.com.
32:08Wingstop, bring the flavor.
32:12I know you're ready for a SummerSlam party.
32:15I certainly am.
32:16And look, big at a party.
32:17Listen to this place.
32:20For some respect.
32:27And his opponent, from the Gulf of America,
32:33weighing in at 202 pounds,
32:37El Grante Americano.
32:41One of the greatest luchadors I've ever seen compete live inside the Squirt Circle.
32:48Rank him right up there with Rey Mysterio.
32:50Well, certainly a special treat right here.
32:52Will you quit waving your arms around?
32:54He's undefeated.
32:54Why can I not?
32:55It's like a Joe Hendry concert in here.
32:57Say his name and he may appear.
32:59Your favorite certainly back in action, Vic, here.
33:01A WrestleMania win under his belt.
33:03And here we are, just a couple of weeks from SummerSlam,
33:05the Speed Champion, coming to Main Event.
33:07Hey, keep speaking facts.
33:08Keep speaking truths.
33:09Why would I not be excited?
33:11Did you just hear yourself?
33:12He is undefeated on the grandest stage of them all.
33:16No one has ever beaten El Grante Americano at WrestleMania.
33:20Am I saying truths or am I saying lies?
33:22Handed Rey Fenix his first loss in the WWE.
33:24Thank you very much.
33:25The yes or no question, but you continue to elaborate.
33:28That's fine.
33:28As El Grante Americano making his official debut here on Main Event.
33:34What a treat.
33:35One-on-one with Austin Theory and Vic.
33:37We saw Austin Theory in tag team action a couple of weeks ago,
33:40succumbing to the War Raiders,
33:41but looks like he's finally trying to get it done in singles action.
33:44Well, it certainly looks like he's lost some baggage, so to speak.
33:49And Austin Theory is an accomplished superstar.
33:52Youngest United States champion.
33:53Defeated John Cena at WrestleMania, if we're giving credit where credit is due.
33:57Former tag team champion.
33:58Has had multiple WrestleMania moments, but he's trying to get back on track.
34:03Of course, former Money in the Bank winner as well as El Grante Americano.
34:07Looking to control the pace right here out of the gate.
34:09Vic, I know you're very excited to see El Grante Americano here on Main Event.
34:12This is textbook wrestling right now.
34:15And take a look at El Grante Americano.
34:20I guess in this case, textbook Pucha Libre.
34:22Look at this.
34:23Have you ever seen something as spectacular as this?
34:26Look at him move.
34:28Say it again.
34:30Did he just say shoosh?
34:32Huh?
34:32See, you're starting it up again.
34:35As Austin Theory here, trying to get back in this one, El Grante Americano.
34:38Certainly has had quite a showing in recent weeks.
34:41Of course, Vic, we saw him defeat two future Hall of Famers in CM Punk and AJ Styles to qualify for Money in the Bank.
34:50He certainly did, but let's talk about the here and the right now.
34:53Austin Theory in control.
34:56Austin Theory playing to the universe a little bit.
34:59But look, Austin Theory knows he's in there with an accomplished superstar in El Grante Americano.
35:03As Austin Theory, Vic, he pointed out some of those accolades that he's accumulated in the past.
35:08Of course, Austin Theory competed at WrestleMania for the World Tag Team titles just mere months after debuting in NXT.
35:14Oh, that's why I'm telling you, he's an accomplished superstar.
35:18Take a look at the strength, effortlessly, flawless, in rhythm, super smooth.
35:23Look at this sequence of offense into the cover, hooks the outside leg, only two right there.
35:27But, Vic, taking a look at Austin Theory's career, are these his first true hardships here in the WWE?
35:32I don't necessarily would say they're hardships.
35:35I think that when you are a WWE superstar, you have, you know, choppy water, so to speak.
35:40It's a roller coaster.
35:41It's a clock.
35:41Some days you're at 12, other days you're at 6.
35:43And right now, Austin Theory looking to pounce.
35:45From the upside in, big connection, sending El Grante Americano to the outside.
35:52Give credit where credit is due to Theory, standing toe to toe.
36:04An absolutely incredible scene.
36:08This is what World Wrestling Entertainment is all about.
36:17WWE Clash in Paris, Sunday, August 31st.
36:22Tickets on sale now.
36:23Back here on Main Event.
36:30It's been all day for Austin Theory.
36:32Certainly has been.
36:34Look at El Grante Americano doing the right thing, taking a lap, taking his time,
36:38regrouping himself.
36:40Sign of a veteran.
36:42He's ripping the mask.
36:43Oh!
36:44Austin Theory.
36:45Oh, how disrespectful.
36:47Going to show the world exactly who's under that mask, as right now, El Grante Americano
36:52sensing a bit of desperation.
36:53Well, who is under the mask then?
36:55Blake, you kept telling me it was Chad Gable.
36:58Chad Gable is resting comfortably right now.
37:00I feel bad for Chad Gable, because all of you kept saying he was El Grante Americano.
37:04Some say you look like Dan Fouts, doesn't make sure that you're a Hall of Fame quarterback.
37:09Now, Vic, you don't see a much taller superstar than we have in recent months?
37:13I'm not one to say.
37:14I'm not one to say he's taller or shorter.
37:16I don't look at that, Blake.
37:17I look at what happens inside the squared circle.
37:20You know, seeing that height, I thought maybe initially you were El Grante Americano.
37:23Stop, stop.
37:23I don't have that sort of physique.
37:25El Grante, Elagante, I don't know.
37:27Elagante, keep it up.
37:28As Austin- You won't make it to SummerSlam.
37:31Austin Theory here, feeling the support of the WWE Universe,
37:34something he's not very used to.
37:36Whoa, look at that.
37:38And look at the athleticism of El Grande Americano.
37:42Welcoming in Austin Theory right here.
37:44And you have to imagine, Vic,
37:46this run right here in support of the recovering Chad Gable.
37:49Nice.
37:51High risk.
37:52Let's see how much reward.
37:54What does Chad Gable have to do with this?
37:56We've certainly seen Chad Gable, a big supporter of El Grande Americano in the past.
38:01Let's take another look right here.
38:01Look at the athleticism, Vic, with the blockbuster from the top.
38:05I can tell you, he always pulls out, that being El Grande Americano.
38:12New tricks every week.
38:14Do you hear what I'm hearing?
38:16WWE Universe getting louder and louder.
38:18As Austin Theory lives by the mantra, it's your life, take advantage.
38:22And he's certainly looking to capitalize right here, but he's in some rough waters right now.
38:26As Theory, nice escape.
38:29And the belly in the back dumping El Grande Americano right on the back of his neck here.
38:33Now Austin Theory looking to crawl, looking to scratch.
38:36Beautiful counter there by Theory.
38:38And right now, pivotal point of this matchup, but both men who are so accomplished have
38:43been in these deep waters before.
38:45Neither of them treading as both men rising back to their feet.
38:50Theory starting to feel it right now.
38:52Trying to fuel that fire right here.
38:56Former two-time United States Champion, former World Tag Team Champion.
39:00As Theory would love to get right back into position, and he says it's all day, Vic.
39:09Could be all day, and it could be all over for El Grande Americano.
39:15And Theory, looking to take El Grande A-Town down.
39:20And El Grande Americano putting on the brakes right here, oh!
39:23What a right hand.
39:25What's he digging for there, Vic?
39:28El Grande Americano, we've seen this in the past.
39:31Referee didn't see whatever it was, and, oh, Theory was ready.
39:35Into the outstretched arms of Austin Theory, oh, and El Grande.
39:39Again, referee didn't see El Grande rake the eyes, bam!
39:43It connects with the big headbutt.
39:45Whatever's loaded inside there is a grand victory for Americana.
39:49Here is your winner, El Grande Americano!
39:58Look, Booker T on Tuesdays tells me you're not cheating, you're not trying.
40:03Well, certainly a big celebration fiesta right here for El Grande Americano, coming in and
40:09picking up a big win over Austin Theory here on Main Event.
40:13Let's take another look right here, Vic.
40:15Digging right into the trunks, pulling out that object that we've seen many times, putting
40:19it right in his mask, and that's all the opening he needed.
40:22Well, then he also got a little bit more separation there, a rake of the face.
40:25Again, official did not see it, bam!
40:27But the referee did see that flying headbutt and was in perfect position to give El Grande
40:32Americano another victory here in the WWE.
40:38Right now, let's take you back to Saturday night's Main Event, where tensions between L.A.
40:42Knight and Seth freakin' Rollins finally came to a head in an explosive showdown.
40:48During the match, the visionary launched himself off the ropes, and when Seth landed on the
40:52canvas, his knees suddenly buckled.
40:54The injured Rollins fell victim to the BFT, giving the megastar L.A. Knight the win.
40:59Just 48 hours later on Raw, Paul Heyman spoke about Seth Rollins' unfortunate situation.
41:07I appreciate the time.
41:08Uh, yesterday at the Evolution press conference, we learned that Seth freakin' Rollins would be
41:13in Birmingham, Alabama, getting evaluated.
41:16Could you please share the results of that evaluation with us?
41:22First of all, I don't have any information yet.
41:26It's too soon.
41:28And, come on.
41:31Seth Rollins has, until next June, to cash in the Money in the Bank agreement.
41:39Okay?
41:40So, until he's crashing into that deadline, Seth Rollins' health is not a relevant subject.
41:46What is a relevant subject tonight is the fact that tonight, Braun Breaker runs the gauntlet.
41:54Tonight, Braun Breaker goes through everything and everyone in his way.
41:59Tonight, Braun Breaker emerges as the number one contender.
42:04Tonight, Braun Breaker punches his stamp to Summerslam.
42:10Braun Breaker goes on to Summerslam.
42:12Braun Breaker defeats Guntler at Summerslam.
42:16I am, ladies and gentlemen, your next heavyweight champion of the world, Braun Breaker.
42:29In order for Paul Heyman's plan to become a reality, the unpredictable badass must bulldoze
42:36through the former world heavyweight champion, Jey Uso, one of the greatest luchadors of his
42:40generation, Penta, the megastar, LA Knight, and the best in the world, CM Punk.
42:46Find out who will go on to face Gunter for the world heavyweight title at the biggest party of the summer, next.
42:57This October, John Cena lands in Perth for a full-scale WWE takeover.
43:05It all starts with SmackDown, ends with Raw, and in the center of it all, Cena takes the spotlight
43:16for one of WWE's most massive nights.
43:19WWE crowns rolled in Perth, three nights, one epic weekend, all at RAC Arena.
43:28WWE Takeover, Perth, this October.
43:32Combo tickets on sale now.
43:35Welcome back to Main Event, as we look towards the first-ever two-night SummerSlam,
43:42set to take place on Saturday, August 2nd, and Sunday, August 3rd, at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
43:48Even though we are still two weeks away, we have already gotten a taste of what's to come
43:52at the biggest party of the summer.
43:56I hear you in my head, in my beard.
43:58Ay, yo, ay, yo, oh.
44:00The WWE doesn't need a Jelly Roll.
44:05The WWE needs a Logan Paul.
44:09Everybody back there from top to bottom does everything that they can do to make sure that Logan Paul
44:15looks at-
44:17The following night at Saturday Night's Main Event,
44:23Jelly Roll was in Randy Orton's corner when things got physical between Jelly and Logan Paul.
44:29Drew McIntyre was distracted by the commotion outside the ring and took his focus off the match, leading to an RKO out of nowhere.
44:36But the celebration for Jelly Roll and Randy Orton was short-lived,
44:40as the Maverick once again made his presence felt at the expense of the Viper.
44:46Jelly Roll got involved, landing a huge right hand on Logan Paul.
44:50Unfortunately, Jelly Roll would find himself on the wrong end of a Claymore, courtesy of Drew McIntyre.
44:54The newly formed alliance between Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre will be put to the test,
45:10when the two superstars take on the unlikely duo of Randy Orton and Jelly Roll in a tag team thriller at SummerSlam.
45:18Will McIntyre and Paul prove that celebrities don't belong inside a WWE ring?
45:23Although WWE's Apex Predator and his four-time Grammy-nominated tag team partner pull off a major win.
45:31It wouldn't be the biggest party of the summer without a WrestleMania rematch for the biggest prize of them all.
45:37King of the Ring winner Cody Rhodes is more determined than ever to reclaim the undisputed WWE Championship,
45:43when the American Nightmare steps into the squared circle for an all-out war,
45:47with the self-proclaimed last real-world champion, John Cena.
45:52Don't miss the first-ever two-night SummerSlam, Saturday, August 2nd, and Sunday, August 3rd.
45:59As for the World Heavyweight Champion, fresh off an historic title defense against Goldberg in his final match,
46:05the Ring General, Gunther, looks to further his dominance against whomever he faces next.
46:10The dogs are barking in Birmingham, which can only mean one thing, absolute destruction at the hands of Braun Breaker,
46:17who attempts to run the gauntlet for an opportunity at the World Heavyweight Championship.
46:22The unpredictable badass got right to work, advancing with a victory over Penta.
46:26Penta has been eliminated!
46:29Next up, the megastar L.A. Knight, who quickly found out he was no match for the badass on this night.
46:40L.A. Knight has been eliminated!
46:44Jey Uso entered the fray desperately wanting to earn a rematch against Gunther,
46:48but Jey's title hopes would also come to an abrupt end.
46:56Jey Uso has been eliminated!
47:01Now, the field was down to the final two,
47:04as Breaker came face-to-face with a man who has his own extensive history with Paul Heyman,
47:09the straight-edge superstar, C.M. Punk.
47:12C.M. Punk now, across the ring, delivers the running knee, and Breaker's in trouble.
47:23And Punk now with it.
47:25Short arm clothesline.
47:26And now back out to the apron again, and Punk gonna climb high.
47:31What a shock, I was wondering when this was gonna happen.
47:33Bronson Reed, up on the apron, trying to get involved, forcing Punk now to fight back.
47:38Bronson Reed.
47:40We were wondering, but so was Punk. C.M. Punk was ready.
47:43Now perched on top once again!
47:49Oh yeah! The elbow by Punk to Breaker!
47:53One, two, three!
47:55Almost had a Breaker kickdown!
47:57Oh, wait a minute!
47:58Anaconda Vice! Anaconda Vice!
48:01Seamless transition!
48:03Anaconda Vice looking to squeeze the breath out of Braun Breaker!
48:06Breaker's somehow trying to hang on!
48:08Punk's got the vice!
48:10Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute!
48:11Watch Big Bronson Reed!
48:12Bronson Reed now with an elbow to Punk!
48:15Again, there are no disqualifications!
48:18Reed can do whatever the hell he wants!
48:22Oh no, Bronson just called for it!
48:25Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
48:27U-S-O!
48:33Punk's got some backup!
48:35Main event Jey Uso beaten and battered, coming down to get himself some!
48:41Bad ribs and all looking to come to the aid of the Second City Saint!
48:45Jey Uso getting him some of Big Bronson!
48:51Uso taking out the Arcella!
48:54Meanwhile, back in the ring, the match continues!
48:57Oh no, Punk, don't turn around!
49:05Breaker went for the spear!
49:06Punk intercepted him!
49:08He's got Breaker up top!
49:09Go to sleep!
49:10GTS!
49:11Punk into the cover!
49:12One, two, three!
49:14Punk's going to SummerSlam!
49:16Here is your winner, CM Punk!
49:28Gunther Punk for the world title!
49:32Two weeks from this weekend at SummerSlam!
49:36A few weeks ago, it was CM Punk who told Gunther, stay out of my way!
49:42Well, these two gentlemen are on a collision course at MetLife Stadium for the biggest party of the summer!
49:50With the World Heavyweight Championship on the line!
49:54Punk had one goal, Corey, since his return to WWE, and that is to win a world title!
50:01He has another chance at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey!
50:05Two weeks from this coming weekend, against that man, Gunther, for the World Championship!
50:21Oh, goodness!
50:22Bronson Reed!
50:25Ambushing Punk as Punk had his attention turned to Gunther, and now Jey Uso trying to come to his aid!
50:31Punk earned the championship opportunity, but Bronson Reed and company looking for the last laugh!
50:39Jey Uso coming to the aid of CM Punk!
50:43And Breaker with a spear!
50:45Braun Breaker somehow had enough left in him to end a spear, and now Reed and Breaker!
50:51Double teaming Punk, and a spear down to Punk, decimating Punk and Uso!
51:00And Heyman looks on, as his charges continue to destroy everything that moves!
51:06No, and if it continues to go this way,
51:08CM Punk isn't gonna make it to Summerslam, neither is Jey Uso!
51:14This is gonna be a massacre!
51:16Stacking Uso and Punk up for what would be a double tsunami by the 330 pounder!
51:31The O.T.C. is back!
51:52Superman Punch!
51:53And now, Reigns beat the hell out of Brock Breaker!
52:06Look at the power!
52:08Thanks for coming, Bronson Reed!
52:14Superman Punch!
52:16His place has come unglued!
52:27Spear!
52:35We haven't seen Roman Reigns since the night after WrestleMania,
52:40when Braun Breaker speared him and aligned himself with Rawlings and Heyman!
52:45The President of hisŃб
53:12What do you think, what do you think, what do you think?
53:42Roman Reigns!
54:04The sins of Paul Heyman are about to haunt him.
54:08Roman Reigns has never forgotten.
54:13The original Tribal Chief is back!
54:18Roman Reigns!
54:20Roman Reigns!
