00:00:00Dom, I hope that you get cleared tonight. Have you seen the doctor yet?
00:00:06Have you seen the doctor yet?
00:00:09The doctor's waiting for you.
00:00:12Well, it's probably going to be a smart idea to bring back the coal mine sooner than later,
00:00:17because one of these days when Dirty Dom gets cleared, he might take you out.
00:00:30The following contest, scheduled for one fall, is for the Women's Tag Team Championship!
00:00:49Introducing first, the challengers, the team of Lyra Valkyria!
00:00:58and
00:01:00Bailey!
00:01:07And their opponents, representing the Judgment Day!
00:01:16They are the Women's Tag Team Champions!
00:01:23Raquel Rodriguez!
00:01:28And Roxanne!
00:01:29Who wins?
00:01:35Lyra Valkyria, I don't think, is buying this buddy-buddy from Bailey at all.
00:01:40I mean, they were at each other's throats the past couple of weeks, and now Bailey wants to be her best friend.
00:01:47I'm with you, Cole. I don't believe Bailey's necessarily... I don't know what to believe.
00:01:54Well, you think Bailey's playing games? Maybe getting Lyra's head?
00:01:57Trying to cause her to get off her game plan, heading into the Intercontinental Championship match,
00:02:01because Bailey's jealous she's not involved in the Becky match.
00:02:03What does that accomplish at this juncture? Bailey had her opportunity, and it went up in smoke.
00:02:07Well, Bailey's extremely frustrated.
00:02:09Talked about last week how she hasn't won a match in many months here in WWE,
00:02:13and she'll start things off against Roxanne Perez.
00:02:17Roxanne, of course, from Texas, down in Laredo.
00:02:20About a five-hour drive from Houston.
00:02:22Made that drive as a high school kid to train at Booker T's School right here in Houston.
00:02:28Now the Sassy Perez dropped on her backside by Bailey.
00:02:34I've personally been very impressed by how quickly Roxanne and Raquel have gelled as a team.
00:02:41I agree.
00:02:42Oftentimes, it takes months, if not years, to get on the exact same page as your partner.
00:02:46Here comes Bailey.
00:02:56For the first time ever, Bailey and Lyra Valkyria take on Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez of the Judgment Day
00:03:07for the women's tag team titles here tonight.
00:03:10Crucial matchup, Corey.
00:03:11The winner not only wins the tag team gold, but they have a date at SummerSlam
00:03:15with Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss from Friday night's SmackDown.
00:03:19So is Bailey...
00:03:20Covered out by Bailey and a kick out.
00:03:23Did Bailey get this match made expecting Lyra to have to compete twice at SummerSlam?
00:03:27Well, perhaps.
00:03:29And now Raquel Rodriguez.
00:03:31Big cheer for the crowd here in Houston.
00:03:33I think they were cheering for Dom's Guns.
00:03:34No, no, Raquel, born and raised in the Rio Grande Valley, about four to five hours south of Houston here.
00:03:41I don't understand the geography sometimes.
00:03:43It's like when we go to Canada.
00:03:44Somebody can be from Calgary and they call Toronto home.
00:03:47Texas is, like, practically as big as Canada.
00:03:48Yeah, but Texas is a state, Corey.
00:03:52You want a geography lesson as Raquel looks to overpower Bailey here.
00:04:02Back on SmackDown Friday, Charlotte Flair knocked off Roxanne Perez in a one-on-one matchup.
00:04:07Raquel was at the inside.
00:04:08The power of Raquel Rodriguez just shrugging Bailey off with ease.
00:04:12And I honestly, part of me sort of feels bad for Bailey, Cole.
00:04:16As long as we've known her, I don't know that I've ever seen Bailey sort of spiral as she has lately.
00:04:20Yeah, but she's got to win.
00:04:21I mean, that's the name of the game, right?
00:04:23There's nobody to blame but herself.
00:04:24And Bailey, that was odd.
00:04:26That was a rather aggressive tag attempt, Bailey.
00:04:29And then Bailey backed off and made the tag.
00:04:32Again, later on tonight, the return of the OTC, Roman Reigns, who came back to Raw last week with a vengeance.
00:04:41Has a lot of scores to settle.
00:04:42We'll hear from Reigns tonight.
00:04:43Let's just talk for a minute about how impressive the Judgment Day as a whole have been lately.
00:04:48The clubhouse has turned into the penthouse, laden in gold.
00:04:52Oh, so look who's stirring everything up.
00:04:53Liv Morgan leaves with an injury, and all of a sudden, Judgment Day has all the gold.
00:04:57So you agree with that assessment as well.
00:05:00It's just an observation.
00:05:01It's an unbiased observation.
00:05:03And Bailey now kicked to the midsection.
00:05:05Of course, the women's and men's tag team titles with the Judgment Day.
00:05:09Dominic's the current Intercontinental Champion.
00:05:11Double team now from, oh, no dice.
00:05:14Raquel Rodriguez turns it around on Bailey and Lyra Valkyria.
00:05:19The power of Rodriguez.
00:05:21And again, Dominic's here at ringside, continuing to avoid the doctor who is supposed to attempt to clear Dominic tonight for his SummerSlam match with AJ Styles.
00:05:31Dominic is here to provide moral support for the women's tag team champions.
00:05:35Oh, for perhaps physical support like last week.
00:05:37Cover now by Roxanne off the double team and a kick out by Bailey.
00:05:41This is just excellent tag, classic tag team strategy.
00:05:50They have been a very successful team so far.
00:05:52They defended the tag titles in a fatal four-way at Evolution.
00:05:55Last week, knocked off the Kabuki Warriors thanks to some help from Dom.
00:05:59Tagged to Lyra, and here comes Valkyria, the inaugural Intercontinental Champion.
00:06:03Ooh, looking to win her title back in her first SummerSlam.
00:06:07Appearance a week from Saturday.
00:06:10Great display of strikes from Valkyria, and that's just raw power from Rodriguez.
00:06:15Rodriguez, a tag team technician, Corey.
00:06:17Nobody's heard, has held more women's tag team titles than Raquel in her career.
00:06:22She's at five.
00:06:23There's a reason, Raquel, this is her wheelhouse tag team competition.
00:06:30And Lyra trying to figure out what the hell Bailey's doing playing cheerleader.
00:06:34Can't quite believe it.
00:06:36And Lyra took her eye off the ball momentarily, and Raquel Rodriguez takes over.
00:06:40And now Roxanne Perez with a cheap shot.
00:06:45Oh, what a close line.
00:06:47Obviously, Bailey's thinking, I don't know what the hell she's doing.
00:06:51I don't either.
00:06:53Again, Corey, I don't get any of the strategy from Bailey.
00:07:01I mean, is she trying to be a good teammate?
00:07:04Is she trying to distract Lyra?
00:07:05Are there other motives?
00:07:07None of it makes any sense to me, Cole.
00:07:09I'm sure Bailey has her reasons, but objectively speaking,
00:07:13why would you get a tag team title opportunity for yourself and someone you can't stand
00:07:19and have spent the last several weeks competing against?
00:07:21Well, Becky was out here moments ago talking about Lyra bogarting everything in WWE,
00:07:29not respecting the match, wanting every single championship.
00:07:33It seems to me Bailey's doing that.
00:07:34Now Lyra whipped into the corner, and Roxanne Perez, double team now coming from the Judgment Day.
00:07:43We saw Dominic at the ringside waiting to be medically cleared tonight, perhaps, is Roxanne.
00:07:49Oh, and again, holding Lyra for the big boot by Raquel.
00:07:52Cover to retain.
00:07:53And a kick out by Valkyrie.
00:07:56Did you see Dom online celebrating 20 years in WWE?
00:08:01How delusional is he?
00:08:03He's not wrong.
00:08:04He was a kid.
00:08:05He wasn't under contract.
00:08:06He's, again, riding the cootails of his legendary father, Ray Mysterio.
00:08:10That's what his deadbeat dad told you, that he wasn't under contract.
00:08:13Meanwhile, Ray just blew it on a car for somebody.
00:08:15And now Roxanne in control.
00:08:18Roxanne Perez, so young, the reason she's called the prodigy, Corey, I mean, she's incredible.
00:08:24Wise beyond her years, an in-ring IQ through the roof.
00:08:29And the proof is in the pudding, as they say, in a short period of time here on Monday Night Raw.
00:08:34She's already holding tag team gold, now having a great time at the expense of Lyra Valkyrie.
00:08:39Look at the way that Dominic was looking at Roxanne.
00:08:41You think there's something going on there?
00:08:43What are you implying, Cole?
00:08:45She's asking.
00:08:48Uh-oh.
00:08:49And now Lyra scoop up.
00:08:50Trying to win the tag team titles.
00:08:52Roxanne.
00:08:53Counter pin.
00:08:54Oh!
00:08:55Lyra again.
00:08:57Roxanne kicks out again.
00:09:00I think it's unfair of you to cast aspersions on the motivations of Dirty Dominic Mysterio.
00:09:06Corey, I asked a simple question.
00:09:07Cover.
00:09:08Hook of the leg.
00:09:09Kick out by Lyra.
00:09:10You asked a very leading question.
00:09:13It was an implication, even.
00:09:15Tag.
00:09:16Here comes Raquel Rodriguez.
00:09:17And you've got to feel bad for Dom.
00:09:18I mean, he's had AJ Styles hunting him down every step of the way, waiting for him to get medically cleared.
00:09:22Well, maybe he should be a fighting champion and actually defend his championship against AJ, and AJ wouldn't have to be stalking him everywhere.
00:09:30Well, yeah, I'm talking about you.
00:09:32Go to the doctor and get clear.
00:09:34Go.
00:09:34You talk about Dirty Dom.
00:09:36I'm going to talk about the power of Raquel Rodriguez.
00:09:39Cover.
00:09:40To retain.
00:09:42Lyra kicks out.
00:09:43I'm not talking about you.
00:09:45I'm calling a tag title match.
00:09:47Hey, do you have something for Roxanne?
00:09:49What?
00:09:50For who?
00:09:58This is for the women's tag team titles.
00:10:00Roxanne Perez, Raquel Rodriguez have been dominating.
00:10:03Lyra Valkyria and Bayley.
00:10:05Again, a strange team formed tonight between people who hated one another the last couple of weeks.
00:10:09Bayley and Lyra.
00:10:10It was just last week a two out of three falls match.
00:10:12It determined to be one contender for Becky Lynch's Intercontinental Championship.
00:10:16It was Lyra against Bayley.
00:10:17They took one another to the limit.
00:10:19Again, the winner of this match gets a date at SummerSlam with Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss from Friday Night SmackDown.
00:10:24Power of Raquel Rodriguez.
00:10:26Man, she's so dominating.
00:10:27And now Roxanne Perez.
00:10:33Springboard moonsault.
00:10:34Second rope.
00:10:34Cover now.
00:10:35To retain.
00:10:37And a kick out.
00:10:38I asked you a bit earlier.
00:10:39I want to get into this in a moment as we take another look.
00:10:42The slingshot suplex a la Telly Blanchard.
00:10:46Followed up by a beautiful moonsault by the Prodigy.
00:10:49See Roxanne in the ring.
00:10:52I feel like Dominic was showing her some gooboo eyes earlier on.
00:10:56So I'm wondering if Dominic has a thing for Roxanne.
00:10:59That's what I'm asking.
00:11:00Okay.
00:11:00Dominic is spoken for, Michael Cole.
00:11:03Dominic is an honest, hardworking, proud Intercontinental Champion.
00:11:08And doesn't need you casting aspersions and asking questions and starting outright lies and rumors.
00:11:13Well, listen.
00:11:14I actually called Liv Morgan today to try to find out what she thought about this.
00:11:16Why are you calling Dirty Dom's old lady?
00:11:19She didn't answer the phone.
00:11:20Oh!
00:11:21Dom, did you hear this nonsense?
00:11:24And now, tagged by Roxanne.
00:11:26Lyra trying to make a tag to Bailey.
00:11:27And again, Roxanne Perez preventing Lyra from making it across the ring.
00:11:32Lyra Valkyria creates some space.
00:11:34Can she make the tag?
00:11:35And she does.
00:11:36And here comes Bailey.
00:11:37And Bailey on fire now.
00:11:42Looking in what has been a frustrating few months.
00:11:45Nice back suplex.
00:11:51Bailey into the corner.
00:11:53Very interesting response from the WWE Universe here in Houston.
00:11:56They don't know what to make of this Bailey either.
00:11:57It's bizarre.
00:11:59Oh!
00:12:00You and I have both known Bailey over 10 years.
00:12:02This is a side of her that we never knew existed.
00:12:04Well, and it's completely different from what we've experienced with her the last few weeks.
00:12:11This doesn't add up.
00:12:12And Bailey's sunset flip bomb!
00:12:15Roxanne Perez hit the corner hard.
00:12:17Bailey now trying to win the women's tag team titles.
00:12:20Perez at two.
00:12:21Dominic in no way looks hurt or injured to me.
00:12:29At all.
00:12:30Are you an internist?
00:12:31Well, I mean, he's moving around pretty well out here.
00:12:34And Bailey now delivering the shoulders to the mixed section of Roxanne Perez.
00:12:40Roxanne moves out of harm's way.
00:12:43If it weren't for Hippola's...
00:12:44Oh!
00:12:45Oh!
00:12:46Raquel with a clothesline as Roxanne distracted the official.
00:12:51Tag made.
00:12:51Here comes Rodriguez.
00:12:56Tag made once again.
00:12:58The prodigy legal for the judgment day.
00:13:00And again, look at the power of Raquel.
00:13:03Man, that was incredible.
00:13:05Second time.
00:13:07Slingshot suplex placed perfectly in position for the prodigy.
00:13:11How's that for alliteration?
00:13:12All this time went to the...
00:13:14That springboard moonsault and Bailey got the knees up his chair.
00:13:20Corey's chair broke at ringside.
00:13:22He was so excited.
00:13:23And Bailey now with a runny leg.
00:13:24Cover now.
00:13:25Can they win the tag titles?
00:13:27Almost kick out.
00:13:28Are you okay?
00:13:29I'll live.
00:13:31Yeah, wait for the doctor to medically clear Dom.
00:13:33Have them take a look at me, too.
00:13:36Feel like something happening inside.
00:13:37I still look fine, though.
00:13:39Tag made.
00:13:40Here's Lyra.
00:13:41Lyra fired up now.
00:13:42From the top rope.
00:13:43Val'kyrie!
00:13:44With a leg drop!
00:13:46Across the back of Perez's neck.
00:13:49And now Raquel and Bailey fighting outside the ring.
00:13:53Official down for the count and a kick out at two.
00:13:57There's chaotic moments in this tag team championship match.
00:14:01Raquel bounced off the post out there.
00:14:03Lyra going for the night wing.
00:14:05And Roxanne able to drill her into the corner.
00:14:07Perez now just teeing off on Valkyria in the corner.
00:14:14Vecarious position for both women.
00:14:19Lyra answers with a heavy right of her own.
00:14:22Yeah, Lyra throwing a tremendous amount of resilience in her career.
00:14:25And now, Roxanne trying to hook her.
00:14:28Lyra able to slip underneath.
00:14:30And now with Roxanne up top, Lyra going to sit out powerbomb!
00:14:33Not quite sure why she didn't go for the cover there.
00:14:38But she makes the tag to Bailey.
00:14:40And I guess perhaps she's going to try to give Bailey the victory.
00:14:43And Bailey now!
00:14:44With the elbow from the top rope!
00:14:46Cover for Bailey!
00:14:47Raquel Rodriguez breaks up the near fall.
00:14:50I'm baffled, Cole.
00:14:53As many matches as you and I have called, I have never seen anything break down quite like this.
00:14:57It just doesn't make sense.
00:14:59Well, I think Lyra's still trying to figure out what the hell Bailey's all about.
00:15:02As they work now together as a double team!
00:15:04Well, I'm going to tell you a secret.
00:15:06If you're still trying to figure out how to get along with your tag team partner,
00:15:09your odds of becoming tag team champions go from soon to now.
00:15:12Oh, now there's that idiot Dom up on the apron.
00:15:14Bailey just scared him.
00:15:15Bailey yelled to Dom.
00:15:17Now a roll-up.
00:15:18Roxanne's got the tights.
00:15:20Did Bailey kick out?
00:15:21Yes, at two.
00:15:23Bailey now with an E.
00:15:26Roxanne right in the nose.
00:15:28Hit him!
00:15:29Hit him!
00:15:30Hit him!
00:15:31Not cleared.
00:15:33Oh, Raquel!
00:15:34Oh, no!
00:15:36Well, Dominic may not be cleared now.
00:15:38And then Berkeley kicking the face of Mysterio.
00:15:42Raquel going for Lyra.
00:15:44Dom, are you okay?
00:15:47We need a doctor out here.
00:15:49Get medical!
00:15:50Get medical!
00:15:51An internist for sure.
00:15:53Yeah, Raquel asking for medical.
00:15:55Meanwhile, Lyra Valkyrie and Raquel!
00:15:58Drop kick right on the money.
00:16:01Bailey in the ring.
00:16:03Get somebody out here to help Dom.
00:16:04Something may have ruptured.
00:16:06And a collision!
00:16:07Oh, no!
00:16:08Oh!
00:16:08Both women are down!
00:16:10Critical moment.
00:16:11And finally, medical personnel rushing out here to check on Dirty Dom.
00:16:16Hold his C-spine.
00:16:17Oh, no!
00:16:25Oh, no!
00:16:26C-p-r!
00:16:29Dr. AJ!
00:16:31Dominic!
00:16:32Run over the hills!
00:16:35AJ's talking to him.
00:16:36Look at him!
00:16:37And Becky Lynch, where the hell did she come from?
00:16:40Dragging Lyra off the apron!
00:16:42Into the steps!
00:16:47Becky Lynch from out of nowhere.
00:16:49Bailey with no one to tag!
00:16:53Roxanne from behind!
00:16:56And Bailey kicks it to!
00:16:58Reversal!
00:16:59Kick out by Roxanne!
00:17:05Tag!
00:17:06I don't think Bailey realizes that Raquel's legal for the judgment day!
00:17:10Bailey to Bailey!
00:17:10Doesn't matter!
00:17:11Roxanne not legal!
00:17:13But Raquel is!
00:17:14Tejada bomb!
00:17:15With authority!
00:17:17Stock her up!
00:17:19Raquel and Roxanne are defending SummerSlam!
00:17:23Here are your winners!
00:17:24And still!
00:17:26The Women's Tag Team Champions!
00:17:30Raquel Rodriguez!
00:17:32And Roxanne!
00:17:34Hooray!
00:17:35Again, a week from Saturday, the epic two-night SummerSlam begins, and Raquel and Roxanne will defend the Women's Tag Team Titles against SmackDown, Charlotte Flair, and Alexa Bliss at SummerSlam.
00:17:50Bailey's bad luck continues!
00:17:54Becky Lynch!
00:17:56Zacky Lyra Valkyria toward the end of the matchup puts it back to Zacky Redmond.
00:18:03Cole, thank you so much.
00:18:04Sammy, you are moments away from facing Karrion Kross, but I gotta tell ya, I'm a little surprised to see you here.
00:18:11I mean, I know you beat Karrion at Night of Champions, but since then, you've endured a ton of physical punishment.
00:18:19In fact, last we heard, you're supposed to be out indefinitely.
00:18:24Are you sure that you want to do this?
00:18:26Look, Jackie, I'm not gonna lie to you and tell you I'm 100% medically.
00:18:29I probably could have used a little bit more time, but honestly, this does not need to drag on any longer.
00:18:34I'm done dealing with this.
00:18:36Because it was one thing when Kross was talking and lurking in the shadows with his cryptic messages, and he's trying to corrupt me, or whatever it is he's trying to do.
00:18:44But now he's getting in the way of my goals.
00:18:46I missed last week because of him.
00:18:49You know what would have happened last week?
00:18:51I would have been in that gauntlet match.
00:18:53I could have won that gauntlet match.
00:18:54I could have had a world championship opportunity.
00:18:57And he took that away from me.
00:18:59So as far as I'm concerned, we don't need to wait another week, two weeks, three weeks, months.
00:19:04I'm gonna deal with this tonight.
00:19:07In fact, I'm fixing to deal with it right now.
00:19:16Sami Zayn, of course, from Canada.
00:19:20You upset a lot of people from Canada, claiming that Texas was bigger than Canada.
00:19:24I was using it as a point of reference, Cole.
00:19:27I didn't insult the place.
00:19:29A lot of Canadians took it as an insult.
00:19:31The following contest is scheduled for one goal.
00:19:39Introducing first, from Montreal, Kuba, Canada, winged at 212 pounds, Sami Zayn.
00:19:51Ribs are still taped after the assault by Cross in the steel pipe.
00:19:54And then, of course, the spear by Breaker a few weeks ago.
00:19:58Sami and Cross live on Netflix.
00:20:01In a matter of moments, let's be perfectly honest.
00:20:10At less than 100% to deal with somebody as dangerous as Karrion Kross.
00:20:14This is classic Sami Zayn, though.
00:20:16This is what Sami does.
00:20:17He defies the odds.
00:20:19He fights through the pain.
00:20:20The guy's got more heart than brains.
00:20:22That's no secret.
00:20:23I just think Sami may live to regret it.
00:20:25Well, that's why the WWE fans, like the nearly 13,000 in Houston tonight, appreciate Sami Zayn.
00:20:33Cheer and back Sami Zayn.
00:20:36Of course, you know what his number one goal is, Corey.
00:20:39That's to win a world championship here in WWE.
00:20:42But he admits he has to put those plans on the back burner to deal with this Karrion Kross situation.
00:20:47Well, Sami believes, as he said moments ago, that he would have taken part in last week's gauntlet match had he been healthy and able.
00:22:23Well, Corey, the end could be near for Sami Zayn.
00:22:32It didn't have to be this way.
00:22:35All Karrion Kross wants is for Sami to admit that, yes, there is a devil inside.
00:22:40But instead, now Sami is going to suffer.
00:22:44There is a new number one top star in this industry.
00:23:05Brood breaker!
00:23:30Oh, my God!
00:23:37Roman Reigns, I guarantee you, will not forgive, and Roman Reigns will not forget.
00:24:04The OTC, the original Tribal Team, is back live tonight on Raw.
00:24:10And a big week of podcasts in WWE as we march toward SummerSlam.
00:24:16Of course, Cody Rhodes, along with Nikki Bella, part of his podcast.
00:24:20Raw recap will take place tomorrow with Sam Roberts and Megan Morant, the guest of The New Day.
00:24:26Plenty to talk about on Monday Night Raw, including this match between Sami Zayn and Karrion Kross, here tonight, live on Netflix.
00:24:34No Lanes, homie, this is not a game.
00:24:37Me and you are not the same.
00:24:39AJ, y'all seen AJ?
00:24:41Paul Blart, mall cop looking at it.
00:24:42Come on.
00:24:43What's going on?
00:24:44You haven't seen AJ Styles anywhere?
00:24:46Hey, don't worry, you're with friends now.
00:24:48AJ's nowhere around here, okay?
00:24:49Don't worry.
00:24:50Calm down.
00:24:51We're good.
00:24:51I don't know.
00:24:52He's been harassing me all week with the whole day.
00:24:54I'm done.
00:24:56Look, today's the day.
00:24:57What day?
00:24:57What day?
00:24:58You're stalling all day long and you want to stall some more.
00:25:00But let me tell you something, this day's going to end one of two ways.
00:25:02Either you're going to give me that intercontinental title and I'll find a new champion, or you're
00:25:06going to walk with me to medical and you're going to get that doctor's evaluation.
00:25:09Am I clear?
00:25:10Like now?
00:25:11Like now!
00:25:12This is my title.
00:25:12I will see you in medical.
00:25:14I hope.
00:25:21Hey, make sure you get us some lollipops.
00:25:23Well, Pierce, done playing games on social media, put his foot down here tonight on Monday
00:25:29Night Raw.
00:25:29Meanwhile, Karrion Kross, Sami Zayn, one-on-one.
00:25:33Sami Zayn, it rips heavily taped.
00:25:35That because of the attack with a steel pipe by Karrion Kross a couple of weeks ago.
00:25:40Remember, Corey, Sami Zayn beat Karrion Kross back at night at Champions the end of last
00:25:44month and thought he was through.
00:25:47Kross said, no way, it's not over till I say it's over.
00:25:49A borderline obsession for Karrion Kross to have Sami Zayn admit that there is evil
00:25:56within.
00:25:58But what if there isn't evil within Sami?
00:26:00What if-
00:26:01Sami's human.
00:26:02That's Kross's entire point.
00:26:05Sami wants the WWE Universe to believe that he's this virtuous hero, that he's never had
00:26:10a negative thought about anybody.
00:26:12Ask Kevin Owens about how evil Sami Zayn is.
00:26:15I don't think Sami Zayn's ever said that.
00:26:17Sami Zayn has never come out and said he's never had a negative thought or
00:26:19an evil thought about anyone.
00:26:21Sami Zayn's just trying to live his life this way now and Karrion Kross trying to not
00:26:24allow that to happen.
00:26:25And Sami now with a nice suplex.
00:26:27And again, the ribs giving him issues.
00:26:31Kross is a psychopath.
00:26:32Bottom line.
00:26:33He believes that no one is innocent.
00:26:36I think Kross certainly has a unique worldview.
00:26:40I wouldn't necessarily call him a psycho.
00:26:43He expects everyone else to play by the rules, but himself as he delivers that high elbow
00:26:47to Sami Zayn.
00:26:50Kross trying to beat up Sami Zayn yet again.
00:26:53A couple of weeks ago, the field pipe attack and, of course, the spears by Breaker in the
00:27:02match with Zayn.
00:27:04Injuring the rib section even more.
00:27:06No telling how bad the internal injuries are within Sami.
00:27:10However bad they are, they're going to be a lot worse after this encounter with Karrion
00:27:16Kross.
00:27:17Unlike Dominic Mysterio, Sami Zayn is out here fighting tonight.
00:27:21Zayn is whipped across the ring with authority and collapses in the corner.
00:27:26So is it safe to admit that Dominic is a more intelligent competitor than Sami Zayn?
00:27:30I think he's a coward, but...
00:27:32And Sami just doubles over in pain again as he drops to one knee.
00:27:36And it's mindsets like yours that force Sami into these situations.
00:27:40You call Dirty Dom a coward, but you think Sami Zayn's a hero.
00:27:44That's all Kross is trying to say is that Sami isn't what he thinks he is.
00:27:48And Sami Zayn fighting back, however.
00:27:50Hey, this ability, this heart, this resilience from Sami Zayn endears himself.
00:27:55Listen to the nearly 13,000 in his corner here tonight.
00:27:58And one day, I believe, will will Sami Zayn to a world championship, which is the ultimate
00:28:03goal for this man that he's had to put on the back burner.
00:28:05Because of this guy, Kross.
00:28:07Listen, I will never argue the connection that Sami Zayn has with the WWE Universe.
00:28:11It is indisputable.
00:28:13The fact is, the WWE Universe can force Sami into hazardous situations like this.
00:28:18Like competing at less than 100% against someone intent on tearing his head off.
00:28:23Yeah, and Sami going out to the apron now.
00:28:26There's Arabian press.
00:28:27And down goes Karrion Kross, but again to the detriment of Zayn.
00:28:32Who injures his ribs again as he comes off onto the shoulder of Kross.
00:28:37Payne homage to Sami Zayn.
00:28:43Again, doubled over in pain here.
00:28:50Oh, and a cheap shot by Scarlett.
00:28:52Oh, this is bad.
00:29:02Sami Zayn in serious trouble here.
00:29:06The assault on the ribs continue not only by Kross, but again by the mystical, scarleted
00:29:12ringside who delivered a boot, toe-over-boot right to the ribs.
00:29:15And now Sami driven into the steel steps.
00:29:18And at some point, our official tonight, Sean Bennett, may want to check on Sami Zayn and
00:29:23see if he can continue because this is turning into an absolute massacre.
00:29:28It's going to continue to get worse for Sami Zayn.
00:29:31As Karrion Kross settles in, this man is a world-class grappler, well-versed in various
00:29:37martial arts.
00:29:39Yeah, he was a bare-knuckle champion around the world.
00:29:42Brown belt as well.
00:29:43And Kross with a kick again to Zayn.
00:29:46And above all, Kross enjoys inflicting punishment on the opposition.
00:29:52Good night, Sami.
00:29:55And again, what's frightening is that there's many people out there that are in Kross' court
00:29:59covering a kick out by Zayn that rallied behind him that believe in what he says.
00:30:04There's a lot of truth in the words of Karrion Kross.
00:30:07Sometimes you have to look a little harder to find the meaning, but there is truth.
00:30:11Hey, if you're a sicko, I guess.
00:30:12Now, why would you paint everyone with the same brush, Cole?
00:30:18Kross now.
00:30:19A couple of right hands to Sami.
00:30:21Carefully measured on the eyebrow of Sami who forces his way out.
00:30:26And Sami just teeing off right now.
00:30:28Again, right there.
00:30:30Microcosm of what Sami Zayn is all about.
00:30:35He probably should have taken a few more weeks off.
00:30:38There's no probably about it.
00:30:39Even by Sami's own admittance, he could have taken some more time off.
00:30:43He could have used some more time off.
00:30:44But Sami is so obsessed with the spotlight and making a climb toward a world championship.
00:30:50Dropping Sami Zayn in the back of his head.
00:30:52Cover now.
00:30:52Is it enough for a win here?
00:30:53And Zayn stays in it.
00:30:55Sami's willing to sacrifice his own well-being.
00:30:57He's willing to step into the lion's den while he's already bleeding.
00:31:01Well, he's hurt enough for Kross.
00:31:03He wants to finally shut him up.
00:31:04As Kross now again with the leg scissors applied to the injured midsection of Zayn.
00:31:08Just wearing Zayn out.
00:31:10Great strategy by Kross.
00:31:11Kross using his powerful legs to squeeze the breath out of Sami Zayn.
00:31:16Inflicting further damage to the injured ribs.
00:31:22Sami's in trouble.
00:31:23You got to give Karrion Kross credit live here on Raw and Netflix from the Toyota Center in Houston.
00:31:37Kross targeting the ribs, the injured midsection of Sami Zayn throughout much of this matchup.
00:31:42And it's just wearing Zayn down.
00:31:45This is exactly what Karrion Kross wants to do.
00:31:48Keep this pace slow, methodical, and painful.
00:31:51And again, you mentioned earlier, all Kross wants to do is beat Zayn to the point where he can finally admit that he has a dark side.
00:32:01Say it!
00:32:03Say it, Sami!
00:32:04And you hear Kross saying, say it, Sami.
00:32:06Say it.
00:32:07Admit it.
00:32:07What a throw by Kross.
00:32:09And that's what this is all about.
00:32:11It's what it all boils down to.
00:32:13An admission from Sami Zayn.
00:32:15That's what Kross is after.
00:32:17And I don't think Kross is going to stop Corey until he gets what he wants.
00:32:23Exploder launching Zayn halfway across the ring.
00:32:30At what point is Kross just going to get frustrated and give up when Sami Zayn doesn't tell him what he wants to hear?
00:32:34I don't know if that is going to happen, Cole.
00:32:36I mean, Karrion Kross savors the suffering of his opponents.
00:32:41But Sami refusing to stay down, somehow finding the will to soldier forward.
00:32:47Zayn trying to feed off the WWE fans.
00:32:51Sami in the corner.
00:32:52Serious pain.
00:32:54Elbow to the face of Kross.
00:32:55And Zayn looking to rally now.
00:32:58Got to keep Kross at a distance here.
00:33:03And Zayn going to climb the top rope.
00:33:06Tornado DDT!
00:33:08I don't know how Sami does it.
00:33:10Can he put him away?
00:33:11Hooks both legs!
00:33:12Kross at two!
00:33:15Take another look at this.
00:33:17Classic Sami Zayn.
00:33:19Walking the ropes.
00:33:20Tornado DDT.
00:33:22Taking down Kross.
00:33:23But unable to finish the job just yet.
00:33:26But this is what Kross wanted to avoid.
00:33:29And Sami building momentum.
00:33:34Adrenaline beginning to pulse through the body of Sami Zayn.
00:33:37Look at Kross.
00:33:42Kross just so big.
00:33:43So imposing.
00:33:44So strong.
00:33:46Just bulldozing Sami back to the corner.
00:33:49And now focusing on the injured ribs.
00:33:51Things about to go from bad to worse for the underdog from the underground.
00:33:57This is that methodical style that Kross loves.
00:34:01Just beat down.
00:34:02Punish your opponent.
00:34:04It's like a puzzle for Karrion Kross.
00:34:07He lives for this.
00:34:08To figure out ways to hurt his opponents.
00:34:11Different ways.
00:34:12New ways.
00:34:13Different variations.
00:34:14It's what Kross is all about.
00:34:16He's looking for a superplex there.
00:34:17But Sami.
00:34:19Again his ribs exposed.
00:34:20And Jake has been rolled up on his body.
00:34:22Zayn's still fighting back.
00:34:24Sami's not going to do this.
00:34:26Sami's going to hurt himself here.
00:34:27Sunset flip-off.
00:34:29Cover by Zayn.
00:34:30Is it enough?
00:34:31No.
00:34:32Kick it to.
00:34:35Oh look at what Scarlett's got.
00:34:38Steel pipe in hand.
00:34:40That Kross has used against Zayn in the past.
00:34:44Sean Bennett tied up with Sami Zayn for the moment.
00:34:50And now Scarlett Knight able to hand off the baton so to speak to Kross.
00:34:56Sami's ribs playing a factor as we expected they would.
00:35:00Looking for the exploder.
00:35:01And he has it up.
00:35:02And drops Kross on the back of his neck.
00:35:06Effective though.
00:35:07And now Scarlett placing the pipe into the hands of Kross.
00:35:11The official Sean Bennett back there with Zayn.
00:35:13I'm checking on Sami Zayn's well-being.
00:35:16Sami.
00:35:19Setting up for a haluma kick.
00:35:21Scarlett grabs his leg.
00:35:24Bennett dealing with Scarlett now.
00:35:27And Kross with a putt to the ribs.
00:35:30That has got to do it.
00:35:31It's deep and I don't think it's playable.
00:35:37Kross with the win.
00:35:40Here is your winner.
00:35:43Karrion Kross.
00:35:45A controversial victory but a victory nonetheless.
00:35:51Kross uses a steel pipe to the injured ribs of Sami Zayn.
00:35:55It picks up a victory tonight.
00:35:57But Zayn still has not said what Kross wants him to say.
00:36:01Let's take another look.
00:36:04As Sami delivers an exploder to Kross in the corner.
00:36:08Scarlett would deliver the steel pipe and then create a diversion.
00:36:14Grabbing the ankle of Sami Zayn.
00:36:16And as Sami came in presumably to deliver a haluma kick.
00:36:21He is met with steel to the damaged ribs.
00:36:26And the beatings unfortunately will continue until an admission is made.
00:36:32What a win for this duo.
00:36:35Is he done?
00:36:40Is the doctor?
00:36:41They're almost done.
00:36:42I had to fight with him to get in there.
00:36:43We just got a tag here.
00:36:45Hey, hey, hey.
00:36:45Here he is.
00:36:47He still burns when he plays.
00:36:48What is it?
00:36:48Really?
00:36:49Listen.
00:36:49We finished the evaluation for Dom.
00:36:51But I still need to finish up some of this paperwork before I can give you an official answer.
00:36:55So what?
00:36:56We're waiting still?
00:36:56Just waiting a few more moments.
00:36:58Oh, God.
00:36:59Get it, Dom.
00:37:01Back up.
00:37:01Oh, looky here, looky here.
00:37:07Adam, AJ, I am cleared and I will see you at SummerSlam.
00:37:19Give me some help over here.
00:37:20Dom, come here.
00:37:20Here's what happened here.
00:37:21Typical Dom.
00:37:22Hey, hey, AJ, you good?
00:37:22Typical.
00:37:23Don't happen, as usual.
00:37:24Sneak attack from behind.
00:37:26Listen, the important thing here is that Dirty Dom is cleared and going to defend at SummerSlam.
00:37:30That is huge.
00:37:31And it's showdown.
00:37:38We are in store for, Cole.
00:37:39This is huge news, too.
00:37:48The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:37:51Introducing first, from Tokyo, Japan, EO Sky.
00:38:01For the first time EO and Stephanie met, there was no conclusion to the matchup.
00:38:07Tonight, EO Sky, one-on-one with Stephanie McCare, live on Netflix.
00:38:13EO Sky, the former women's world champion.
00:38:40And, of course, Naomi cashed in on EO at Evolution.
00:38:43But EO now with an opportunity to win that title back in a triple threat match with Naomi and Rhea Ripley.
00:38:50A week from Saturday as the epic two-night SummerSlam gets underway at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
00:38:57Well, if you want to stay at the very tip-top of your game, you want to keep your skill set sharp, you compete against the best in the game.
00:39:06That's exactly what EO is about to do tonight.
00:39:10That's one thing about EO Sky.
00:39:11She will not back down from a challenge.
00:39:13She has wowed the WWE Universe since arriving on the scene here a number of years ago.
00:39:19Now a two-time world champion.
00:39:23The genius of the sky.
00:39:25What a match her and Rhea put on it.
00:39:30Evolution.
00:39:30Yeah, no doubt about it.
00:39:32A classic for sure.
00:39:34Of course, with Naomi becoming the biggest beneficiary of that instant classic.
00:39:39She's letting the world know about it too, isn't she?
00:39:41She sure is.
00:39:46And eight long years since Naomi held the gold.
00:39:48She's letting the world know about it too, isn't she?
00:40:18And her opponent from San Fernando, Chile, Stephanie McCair!
00:40:39The winner of the Women's Battle Royal at Evolution, Stephanie McCair, earning herself a Women's World Championship opportunity.
00:40:48It'll come on the final day of August in Paris, France at Clash in Paris.
00:40:55Will she face Naomi?
00:40:57Will she face EO Sky?
00:40:58Will she face Rhea Ripley?
00:41:00We find that out at SummerSlam.
00:41:01Clash in Paris and Monday Night Raw are coming to La Defense Arena in Paris on Saturday, August 31st.
00:41:07And Monday, September 1st.
00:41:09Combo tickets on sale now via Ticketmaster.
00:41:11Actually, it's Sunday.
00:41:13Sunday, August 31st for Clash in Paris.
00:41:47We are in the Bayou City tonight.
00:41:49Space City.
00:41:50This is Houston, Texas.
00:41:52We're downtown at the Toyota Center, which is sold out with nearly 13,000 on hand tonight.
00:42:00And here ringside is Bayou City, Texas' own that Mexican OT.
00:42:07His new single, Baby Mad At Me featuring Lil Wayne is available right now on Spotify and Apple Music.
00:42:13And also here in the front row, none other than that man, Houston icon, Mattress Mac, is here tonight.
00:42:22Of course, the legend, the owner of Gallery Furniture, huge Houston sports fan, Mattress Mac, front row for Monday Night Raw.
00:42:29Hey, Bruce, chat me up about Mattress Mac.
00:42:32Do you need a new mattress?
00:42:34And here we go.
00:42:35EO, Stephanie, one-on-one tonight.
00:42:37Remember, they've only met one time in their career.
00:42:40That was back at the end of April.
00:42:41It ended up in an old contest with a lot of interference around the ring tonight.
00:42:44They hope to settle the score.
00:42:46And this could be a preview of what we'll see the final day of August in Paris.
00:42:51It clashed in Paris.
00:42:52Macare, of course, earning herself a world title opportunity by winning the Women's Battle Royal at Evolution.
00:42:58Any time you've got arguably two of the best women's wrestlers on the planet Earth competing in the same ring,
00:43:04there is potential for fireworks and magic.
00:43:07It is perfectly okay to expect that out of the genius of the sky in La Primera.
00:43:12I would like to offer my congratulations tonight to none other than J.C. Jane,
00:43:18who not only is the NXT Women's Champion, but also the TNA Knockouts Champion.
00:43:22You're looking at my notes, Cole?
00:43:23Oh, no.
00:43:23I just wrote that down, yeah.
00:43:25Because Macare was the last double champion in NXT.
00:43:28Indeed.
00:43:28Macare held the NXT Women's Title and the NXT North American Championship at the same time.
00:43:33J.C. Jane pulling off the feet at TNA Slammiversary.
00:43:36An incredible show in Bridgeport last night.
00:43:38Oh, and from here on out, we refer to that place as Trick NA.
00:43:41And Trick, of course, still the TNA Champion.
00:43:44AJ Styles made an incredible return last night as well at the TNA.
00:43:51Great electricity for this matchup tonight between Io and Stephanie.
00:43:56Two of the best in the world.
00:43:57Never crossed paths, however, Corey, until they met here in WWE a couple of months ago.
00:44:03Well, if you're a fan of the Graps, as we say, you've been expecting this.
00:44:07You've been waiting for this for quite some time.
00:44:09And after their first encounter, as you mentioned, ending in a no contest, that's a disappointing finale.
00:44:14You want a decisive winner.
00:44:15Who is the best of the best?
00:44:17Is it Macare?
00:44:18Is it Sky?
00:44:19Look at this.
00:44:20Io Sky, of course, who became a superstar in her native Japan before coming over to WWE here in the States.
00:44:27Stephanie Macare cut her teeth both in Japan and Mexico for arriving on the scene in WWE just over a year ago.
00:44:35And I don't think I'm out of line by saying that Stephanie Macare may be the single hottest superstar in the business right now, male or female.
00:44:43Her ascent to the top of this game happened like it seems overnight.
00:44:48And Macare now.
00:44:50Unique offense.
00:44:51Io Sky as well.
00:44:53And Io Sky now sends Macare.
00:44:55And Macare still hangs on.
00:44:56Look at this.
00:45:00Great defense by Macare.
00:45:03Preventing Sky from obtaining the favorable position.
00:45:07And once again, this straight jacket hold locked in.
00:45:10Most likely won't end the match.
00:45:12But can take a lot out of Io Sky in the process.
00:45:14La Primera.
00:45:15Stephanie Macare.
00:45:17She can fly.
00:45:18She can grapple.
00:45:19Casadora blocked by Sky.
00:45:21Roll through now.
00:45:22Shoulders down.
00:45:22Is it enough?
00:45:23Io's got to kick out at two.
00:45:24What does this mean for Io Sky taking a match like this before?
00:45:28He's so close to SummerSlam in the triple threat for the world title.
00:45:31My best guess is that Io wants to keep her game sharp.
00:45:34Shoulders down.
00:45:35Kick out.
00:45:37Io, Rhea, Naomi at SummerSlam a week from Saturday or Sunday.
00:45:41Great pinning combination into the bridge.
00:45:43Goes Fakir.
00:45:44And listen, Io knows what she's facing at SummerSlam.
00:45:47She's encountered Rhea many times.
00:45:49Never picked up.
00:45:51But Rhea's never been able to beat Io.
00:45:52But Naomi is the X-Factor in that situation.
00:45:55Io knows she needs to be essentially perfect come SummerSlam if she wants to leave with
00:45:59the Women's World Championship.
00:46:00Yeah, Naomi with one of the greatest cash-ins of the Money in the Bank contract we've seen.
00:46:05Evolution.
00:46:06It's part of that great match between Io and Rhea Ripley.
00:46:09And think about what this means for Stephanie Vaquer, who has a championship opportunity at
00:46:13Clash.
00:46:13Oh, look at Io.
00:46:14My still one here.
00:46:15And Stephanie's got a kick.
00:46:16Think of what it would do for the confidence of the Dark Angel, knowing that she defeated Io Sky,
00:46:20especially if Io wins at SummerSlam.
00:46:23And Vaquer now.
00:46:25Nice takedown.
00:46:26Shoulders down again.
00:46:27Getting pinning combination and a kick out by Sky.
00:46:29Vaquer is so fluid in the ring.
00:46:32All of Stephanie's movements extremely crisp, carefully measured.
00:46:37Big Sky as well.
00:46:39That drop kick drives Stephanie out to the floor.
00:46:41And here comes Io.
00:46:47And Sky suicide dive.
00:46:49Stephanie taken out.
00:46:50And the genius of the sky starting to fly.
00:46:55Stephanie Vaquer fresh off a victory this past Friday night on SmackDown over Alba Fire of the
00:47:00Secret Hervis.
00:47:02The protection unit, of course, for Chelsea Green.
00:47:05Great situational awareness by Io Sky, breaking the official Eddie Arango's count.
00:47:14We're going to continue the assault on the outside.
00:47:18Io now.
00:47:20A springboard moonsault as Stephanie moves out of harm's way.
00:47:23And now a kick right to Io.
00:47:25Side of the head.
00:47:26Into the ring to break the count.
00:47:28And now Stephanie Vaquer launches herself off the top rope.
00:47:35Flying cross body.
00:47:36Stephanie takes over.
00:47:53And a competitive matchup.
00:47:55Could go either way between Sky and Vaquer.
00:47:58Stephanie Vaquer provides a unique challenge for Io Sky in that Vaquer is extremely comfortable
00:48:04taking to the sky, which is usually reserved for Io.
00:48:07That's what Io does best.
00:48:09Stephanie is extremely well versed in the aerial attacks as well.
00:48:12What does Stephanie not do well?
00:48:14That's a great question.
00:48:15I have yet to find a hole in the game of La Primera.
00:48:20And Io beats the count of eight back into the ring.
00:48:22Referee Eddie Arango working this matchup.
00:48:24Big kick takes down Sky.
00:48:32Bounced off the top turnbuckle.
00:48:34Back corner, Stephanie.
00:48:35Come on, let's go.
00:48:36One.
00:48:37Two.
00:48:38Three.
00:48:39Four.
00:48:40Stephanie using almost the full five count there.
00:48:43And that's smart.
00:48:43That comes from experience.
00:48:45Knowing your own timing.
00:48:47Understanding how much damage you can inflict within the allotted five seconds.
00:48:50Are you surprised at how quickly Stephanie Vaquer took to a success here in WWE?
00:48:57As a whole, yes.
00:48:59I was witness to that rise in NXT.
00:49:01Most of it, at least over the last seven.
00:49:02Cover on the leg drop.
00:49:04And it seemed like in record time, Vaquer was at the top of the card in NXT.
00:49:08And to the surprise of no one who's seen her prior to her arrival,
00:49:11she's making waves on Raw and SmackDown.
00:49:15And an opportunity, perhaps, to become the Women's World Champion at the end of August in Paris.
00:49:22Now just wearing Io down.
00:49:23Complete control.
00:49:24Look at the confidence in Stephanie's eyes.
00:49:25He took the words right out of my mouth.
00:49:27In the heat of combat, Vaquer is cool as ice right now.
00:49:31She's not stressing.
00:49:33She's not flustered.
00:49:34She's just solving Io Sky step by step.
00:49:37And again, I haven't watched her as closely as you have, Corey,
00:49:40but that's the one thing I've noticed about Vaquer.
00:49:42She never seems out of control.
00:49:44Never seems stressed.
00:49:46Always lives for the moment.
00:49:47Well, you can ask any superstar who's ever competed inside of a ring.
00:49:50One of the most difficult aspects of this business is keeping your composure in the heat of battle.
00:49:56All of the greats have figured out how to do it.
00:49:58Look at this.
00:49:58Look at this fantastic submission attempt by Vaquer.
00:50:02Got Io Sky's leg trapped.
00:50:04This looks like there's pressure applied on likely the knee of Io Sky as well as the neck and shoulder.
00:50:10And again, it was impressive.
00:50:11And look at, perhaps going for the SVB to put Io Sky away.
00:50:15What was impressive about that move is how just fluidly she moved into it, effortlessly.
00:50:20And look at now Io Sky with Stephanie up on her shoulders.
00:50:23There's the backdrop, and Io buys herself some time.
00:50:28Both women are down.
00:50:30Critical part of this matchup.
00:50:32Live on Netflix.
00:50:47Io Sky looking to rally here.
00:50:49Live on Monday Night Raw in Houston, Texas.
00:50:52Sold out Toyota Center.
00:50:53The penultimate Raw before SummerSlam a week from Saturday.
00:50:56Io Sky, Stephanie Vaquer.
00:50:58Sky into the corner.
00:51:00Io Sky so quick.
00:51:01Amazing evasion.
00:51:02Big right hand on the jaw of Vaquer.
00:51:04Io Sky making the climb to the top turnbuckle.
00:51:07Io now off the top.
00:51:09Lands on her feet.
00:51:10Io might hit her knee.
00:51:13Vaquer from behind now.
00:51:16Looking to put Io away.
00:51:18Io is up and...
00:51:20Oh!
00:51:20Knees right to the face!
00:51:23Fantastic!
00:51:24Cover for the win!
00:51:26And a kick out by Sky!
00:51:28It almost seemed as though Vaquer was looking for the SVB backbreaker with the double underhook,
00:51:33but instead throwing a curveball Io's way.
00:51:36Two knees right under the chin.
00:51:38And I like how Stephanie adjusted.
00:51:39She tried to go to the SVP earlier, and Io was able to counter.
00:51:44Change things up there.
00:51:45That's what it takes.
00:51:46It's one of the many reasons Vaquer has captivated the WWE Universe in short order.
00:51:51Always adding new wrinkles to her game.
00:51:53Io though dumps up.
00:51:54Oh!
00:51:54The thresholds are down to the floor.
00:51:56Crossface locked in now by Io.
00:51:59Just that quickly, the tides can turn.
00:52:01And Stephanie, I don't wonder if she's going to tap out here.
00:52:04Io Sky's got it locked in pretty good.
00:52:06Stephanie trying to make it to the bottom rope.
00:52:07Trying to use her long arms to force a break, and will do that.
00:52:10One, two, three, four, three, four, three, four.
00:52:14Vaquer able to escape, but a great deal of damage was inflicted in the several seconds spent in the crossface.
00:52:19Here comes Io.
00:52:21Oh, look at this.
00:52:23Six-one-nine into a head scissor and dropping Vaquer face first on the apron.
00:52:28I think Vaquer sensed what Io was looking for and was able to put the brakes on to mitigate the impact,
00:52:32but you can't stop this.
00:52:34Springboard moonsault by the genius of the sky, and Io's fired up.
00:52:40And Sky now to the apron.
00:52:47Io making the long climb to the top turnbuckle, grinning ear-to-ear.
00:52:52Missile dropkick drives with care to the mat.
00:52:55And a kip up by Io.
00:53:01But we'll be honest, how many mornings have you woken up and done that in your mirror?
00:53:04Never.
00:53:05I don't believe you.
00:53:08And look at this now.
00:53:09Nice takedown by Io.
00:53:10Double stop!
00:53:12Wow!
00:53:13Vaquer doubled over in pain.
00:53:17Looks like the Dark Angel may have finally met her match in the form of the genius of the sky.
00:53:23There's still work to do.
00:53:25I said it last week.
00:53:25You're looking at one of the best in the world today.
00:53:28Io Sky, the former women's world champion.
00:53:30Went for the bullet train attack.
00:53:31Nobody home.
00:53:32Knees first to the turnbuckle.
00:53:34German suplex released by Vaquer.
00:53:36Vaquer.
00:53:36Well, I agree with that sentiment you just mentioned, but I'd say we need to double it up.
00:53:40We are looking at two at the very best in the game.
00:53:44No doubt about that.
00:53:45Vaquer now targeting Io, who's able to move out of the corner.
00:53:48And a German suplex of her own to Vaquer.
00:53:50There!
00:53:51So evenly matched, these two.
00:54:00And I wonder who's going to find that opening.
00:54:03And what we're seeing is a healthy, professional respect from both of these women.
00:54:08I don't want to use the word tentative, but almost cautious in their approaches toward one another
00:54:12because they understand.
00:54:14Io!
00:54:14Oh, God!
00:54:15Looking for a sunset flip bomb here.
00:54:18You may only get the opportunity to make a mistake once.
00:54:21And Stephanie with a knee right to the throat.
00:54:23That's got to do it!
00:54:26And now on the apron!
00:54:29Devil's kiss!
00:54:30I think Barrett's not here.
00:54:38Rolling in the middle of the ring!
00:54:40Let's put the respect deserved on Booker T's name.
00:54:45That's right.
00:54:46He invented it.
00:54:47Sure did.
00:54:48Creepy as it is.
00:54:50Covered here!
00:54:50Covered by Steph!
00:54:51And a kick out by Io Skye at two!
00:54:56Let's take a look back moments ago at this knee that could prove to be
00:55:00the game-changer right across the throat of Io Skye.
00:55:06And here comes Booker.
00:55:10Drag and screw out of the corner!
00:55:13This could be the beginning of the end for Io!
00:55:15Here comes Booker!
00:55:17Double knees to meet Io into the corner now.
00:55:19And now it's Io Skye that's in trouble.
00:55:24Booker could be looking for the SBB once again.
00:55:29Io able to escape!
00:55:30Io Skye now!
00:55:32Oh!
00:55:33Knee right to the...
00:55:34That was almost the version of the SBB!
00:55:36Close!
00:55:37And a kick out!
00:55:39Slightly different application of the underhook,
00:55:42but almost the exact same result.
00:55:44And an SBB, the Stephanie Bacare bomb.
00:55:48A modified one there.
00:55:49Delivered by Io Skye.
00:55:51But Io again grasping at her right knee.
00:55:53And Io, moments ago when she came off of the top rope,
00:55:55she landed and immediately winced.
00:55:59I wonder if that's going to play a factor here.
00:56:00Well, Io can ill afford a injury, of course,
00:56:03heading into SummerSlam and the triple threat match for the women's world title.
00:56:06And Io trying to fire up now.
00:56:17Several heavy rights by Skye and a kick right on the ear of Bacare.
00:56:22The Dark Angel is down.
00:56:26And now Io with the bullet train attack.
00:56:34And Io says that's it.
00:56:37Top rope looking for over-the-moonsault.
00:56:39Stephanie there!
00:56:40You feel the urgency of Bacare understanding time was of the essence to stop the over-the-moonsault.
00:56:46What the hell is Bacare thinking here?
00:56:50Io just trying to survive.
00:56:52Top rope now.
00:56:53She may not!
00:56:54Oh, no!
00:56:56Unbelievable!
00:56:58Dropping Io on her face.
00:56:59Both women are down.
00:57:01And what has been an incredible matchup here tonight,
00:57:04live on Monday Night Raw.
00:57:07Io's down.
00:57:08Stephanie Bacare's down.
00:57:09Holy shit!
00:57:11Holy shit!
00:57:12Holy shit!
00:57:13Holy shit!
00:57:15And what's going on?
00:57:16What's going on in the entrance?
00:57:19Piper Niven.
00:57:20Why?
00:57:20Alba Fire.
00:57:23Chelsea Green's secret Hermes.
00:57:25We've had an issue with Stephanie Bacare for a number of weeks now.
00:57:29And Bacare is going to make them pay.
00:57:31Piper Niven and Alba Fire dropped off the apron.
00:57:36Oh, wait a minute!
00:57:37From behind that's Chelsea Green!
00:57:39Chelsea Green beat the hell out of Bacare!
00:57:43Remember what Stephanie did to all three of these women?
00:57:45The Battle Royal back in evolution!
00:57:48Oh, ho, ho, ho!
00:57:49And Chelsea Green and Piper Niven and Alba Fire have not forgotten!
00:57:53And far be it from me to ever express disappointment in anything Chelsea Green does,
00:57:57but damn it, this is uncalled for!
00:57:59And Io now from the top rough drive!
00:58:02Chelsea Green toward the corner!
00:58:06And Io trying to fight back Stephanie in trouble as well!
00:58:10Jotay takes down Alba Fire and now Io bringing the thunder toward Piper Niven!
00:58:16And a double-team drive Niven out of the ring!
00:58:24Io and Bacare helping one another here tonight!
00:58:29Allies of necessity to thwart the threat of the secret harvest in Chelsea Green!
00:58:36Oh, no!
00:58:42The women's world champ, Naomi now!
00:58:45From behind!
00:58:47Wipe it out, Io!
00:58:48Wipe it out!
00:58:49Stephanie Bacare!
00:58:50And now Naomi, who faces Io in a triple threat at SummerSlam!
00:58:54Naomi is a menace!
00:58:57Gonna send a message tonight!
00:58:58Naomi!
00:59:08Mommy's here!
00:59:12The eroticator!
00:59:14Rhea Ripley!
00:59:16Who gets Sky and Naomi at SummerSlam!
00:59:20Is gonna send a message of her own!
00:59:24Good night, Naomi!
00:59:25Naomi!
00:59:28Oh, Chelsea!
00:59:34Oh, no!
00:59:36Chelsea Green in deep, deep trouble!
00:59:38Stephanie Eal and Rhea!
00:59:44Rip-time to Green!
00:59:49At the face of a woman who's ready for war!
00:59:53Oh, another disappointing result in the Stephanie Bacare Eo Sky singles contest!
01:00:09But there's a lot more at play here!
01:00:11As we barrel towards SummerSlam and Clash in Paris!
01:00:16Ladies and gentlemen, a week from Saturday, the start of an epic two-night SummerSlam!
01:00:22MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, where Naomi will be forced to defend her Women's World Championship
01:00:29in a triple threat match against the former champion Io Sky!
01:00:32Another former champion, Rhea Ripley, at SummerSlam!
01:00:36Last week, CM Punk survived the gauntlet and earned the right to challenge the Ring General Gunther!
01:00:44The World Heavyweight Championship on the line!
01:00:47Who truly is the best in the world!
01:00:49And it is only appropriate that we settle this match in a cage!
01:00:55A steel cage!
01:00:56The United States Champion Solo Sokoa versus Jacob Fatou for the title!
01:01:02The WWE Women's Tag Team Gold is up for grabs as Alexa Bliss and the Queen Charlotte Flair
01:01:09join forces to challenge Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez of the Judgment Day!
01:01:15This has gotten all out of control. In fact, it went insane on the Kimmel Show last week.
01:01:20Randy Orton and Jelly Roll team up and Jelly Roll's in-ring debut to take on Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre at SummerSlam!
01:01:29And there will be no countouts, no disqualifications.
01:01:33There must be a winner in the Women's Intercontinental Championship match
01:01:37as Lyra Valkyria challenges the man, Becky Lynch!
01:01:41The Intercontinental Championship will be on the line because Dominic Mysterio has been medically cleared
01:01:46and he ambushed AJ Styles earlier tonight.
01:01:49Dom defends against Styles at SummerSlam!
01:01:53And is Tiffy time finally up?
01:01:55We find out at SummerSlam in the WWE Women's Championship match
01:01:59as the Queen of the Ring, Jade Cargill, challenges Tiffany Stratton.
01:02:05And it's for the undisputed WWE Championship.
01:02:09And it is now a street fight!
01:02:12John Cena, the 17-time champion, defends against the man he controversially beat at WrestleMania.
01:02:20None other than the American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes.
01:02:23It takes place a week from Saturday, the epic two-night SummerSlam!
01:02:30And WWE and Fandago announced today that the first-ever two-night SummerSlam,

01:02:48She's got a shape, vertical, got some pain, let me know the time to pay.
01:02:52I'm just telling you what?
01:02:54P-J, D-K, take me somewhere tropical, spot, babe, I'm a suit,
01:02:58Uber driver, kind of cute.
01:03:00When I tell you this, they show, please believe me.
01:03:03They won't want anything, these, way too easy.
01:03:06Good for nothing, no, I'm dirty dogs, I'm convinced.
01:03:09It's time to see your mama, tell her how she racist.
01:03:11Well, the time is finally upon us.
01:03:14Roman Reigns, the OTC, shocked the WWE Universe by returning last week.
01:03:22Roman is here on Raw, live next.
01:03:26Ladies and gentlemen, right now, as you can see, I'm joined by the Judgment Day.
01:03:48Finn, pretty stressful night for you guys.
01:03:50Stressful, are you crazy?
01:03:53It's another successful night in the books for the Judgment Day.
01:03:57That's right, I mean, take a look at us.
01:03:59Five superstars, five champions.
01:04:06Five of the toughest people walking.
01:04:11But, you know, even we have a soft spot.
01:04:12Because we're missing one special person.
01:04:19So, Liv Morgan, tonight is dedicated to you.
01:04:28LWO, you boys think you're ready to face the Judgment Day next week?
01:04:32We saw you out here celebrating like you won the Super Bowl.
01:04:36Boys, until you beat the Judgment Day, you can't beat anybody.
01:04:39Charlotte, Alexa, I hope you're comfy at home watching what happened tonight.
01:04:47Because that is what's going to happen to you at SummerSlam.
01:04:50What Don was trying to say is, AJ Styles at SummerSlam, you're the one that's going to need a doctor.
01:05:17Tom's pretty close to Roxanne there.
01:05:20It's not going to fit in the same camera shot, Cole.
01:05:23It's called blocking.
01:05:24Why is he not on the other side, right next to J.D.?
01:05:27You're trying to force me to make a joke about J.D.'s cabeza, aren't you?
01:05:32No, I'm not.
01:05:32I'm just wondering why Dominic was so close to Roxanne,
01:05:35especially in the tribute to Liv Morgan they just had.
01:05:38I don't appreciate you trying to stir things up between a lovely couple.
01:05:41Well, speaking of stirring things up, look who's here.
01:05:44Heyman, Breaker, Reed.
01:05:46Heyman, Breaker, Reed.
01:05:46Heyman, Breaker, Reed.
01:05:50And waddling to the ring now is Seth Rollins' Oracle, Paul Heyman,
01:06:06accompanied by Braun Breaker and Big Bronson Reed.
01:06:19Of course, Seth, the current Money in the Bank contract holder,
01:06:22being kept warm by Bronson Reed, Seth out with a knee injury.
01:06:25Remember, he has up to a year from his past due to cash in.
01:06:29I stand before you tonight with the future of the entire industry.
01:06:59Ron Breaker, and Big Bronson Reed.
01:07:10Now, before he comes out, I have a lot of things to get off my chest.
01:07:25That's the movement.
01:07:27Twinkies!
01:07:28Twinkies!
01:07:29Twinkies, twinkies!
01:07:30Oh!
01:07:32Yeah!
01:07:32Yeah!
01:07:35Yeah!
01:11:16You're off to a bad start with me tonight.
01:11:18I apologize.
01:11:25You're off to a bad start with me tonight.
01:11:55I never want to be...
01:12:25It seems like I would be disrespectful, rude, you know, like someone born in Texas.
01:12:47But so that you know, Seth Rollins is going to be out of action for a long, long time.
01:13:07And that opens up leadership void over here, which means, if you think about it, we can fix this.
01:13:26We can put this back and look who and what comes along with me, because you know, deep in your heart, we're far better together than opposing each other.
01:13:48You'll, you'll, you'll always be my family, because I love you, my tribal team.
01:14:18Let's just put it, let's just put it, let's just put it, let's just put it, let's just put it on pause.
01:14:28Let's just put that on pause.
01:14:30There's one thing I forgot to do.
01:14:32Acknowledge me.
01:14:34Acknowledge me.
01:14:35Acknowledge me.
01:14:47Acknowledge me.
01:15:00Acknowledge me.
01:15:10Acknowledge me.
01:15:12Acknowledge me.
01:15:14So Houston, what was he talking about?
01:15:35You want me to lead?
01:15:37A few years ago, I would have said those are wise words from a wise man, but you're not
01:15:51a wise man anymore.
01:15:57You're just a dumbass.
01:16:07Easy now, Junior, easy, Junior.
01:16:12You might want to listen up, sit under the learning tree and write this down because he's about
01:16:21to do the same thing to you as he did to me.
01:16:26Because in a few years, when you're the man around here, he's going to take all the credit.
01:16:35That's what you try to do with me, right?
01:16:37You see, Houston, I've heard a lot of people try to take responsibility for creating the
01:16:44tribal chief.
01:16:48But I can tell you firmly, it wasn't him.
01:16:57The only reason I'm the tribal chief is because they still acknowledge me.
01:17:04Oh, you're damn right.
01:17:22The OTC was a champion too.
01:17:25the greatest champion to ever step foot in this ring
01:17:32and i will say this man had a part in that
01:17:38but he didn't have any part in me keeping that title
01:17:46no i mean look at him how could he honestly come on now
01:17:50no the usos did solo did
01:17:55sammy even helped out

01:18:12but yeah
01:18:15i lost that title i did it only took four years but i lost it
01:18:23but then you told everybody that i took my tail and i go off and i do whatever but no
01:18:29i went home to continue to raise the future bloodline
01:18:34which brings me to family you see when we talk about the bloodline that's all it is is family you see

01:21:02Listen to me, Roman.
01:21:16Get this through your thick skull.
01:21:22Look around.
01:21:25We don't want you here anymore.
01:21:32You're yesterday's news.
01:21:36You're the old dog.
01:21:39Hell, you were relevant five years ago.
01:21:42That was your prime.
01:21:44You're just taking up a spot standing in my ring.
01:21:49And I'm glad, I'm glad that you didn't take his offer
01:21:52because I know that Paul won't stab me in the back.
01:21:56You want to know why?
01:21:58I hold value in this place.
01:22:02You're worthless.
01:22:09I'm the big dog now.
01:22:14I'm the top dog now.
01:22:17I'm the future of WWE.
01:22:20I'm the man around here now.
01:22:23So do what you do best, Roman.
01:22:35Turn around
01:22:37and leave.
01:22:40We don't do it.
01:22:42We don't do it.
01:22:42We don't do it.
01:22:43We don't do it.

01:23:05We don't do it.
01:23:10I got to be completely honest.
01:23:14I didn't hear any of that trash you just said.
01:23:20I honestly don't think your mic was working.
01:23:22If you need to say it again, please use mine.
01:23:26Silverman punch!
01:23:28Breaker goes down!
01:23:31And now Reigns goes after Big Bronson Reed,
01:23:34who tried to attack him with a briefcase.
01:23:36And Breaker with a spear!
01:23:43Broad Breaker levels Roman Reigns with a spear!
01:23:48And Heyman wants more damage done!
01:23:54Reed and Breaker double-teaming Roman!
01:24:00Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no!
01:24:01No!
01:24:04Bronson Reed had said that tsunamis destroy islands,
01:24:08and that's what he was trying to do there
01:24:10before family came to help Roman out!

01:25:21And not so fast, young guns.
01:25:25The incumbent sheriff still rules this town for now.
01:25:32Gain up, stop it!
