00:00center 15,254 of our closest friends in the house tonight and Wade WWE remains the hottest ticket
00:10in all of entertainment our 36th television sellout this year 53rd event overall and we are
00:17showing no signs of slowing and tonight's friday night smackdown on fox is sponsored by progressive
00:24it is as hot as the industry has been in my time as a fan going back to the 80s
00:31and it just continues getting hot
00:42the following contest is
00:45for one fall introducing first from merrillville
01:01we found out a few moments ago that the prize fighter is in a nasty nasty mood tonight wade
01:09that is when ko is at his absolute best bell to bell an angry ko is a dangerous ko
01:18and it's a man who has big opportunities on the horizon he was hesitant at first
01:25but he does indeed have his championship opportunity versus wwe champ the american
01:32nightmare cody rose it's a bash in berlin two weeks from tomorrow streaming live wwe on
01:42longtime friends battling over the richest prize in the industry
01:46you can see the focus in owen's eyes tonight
02:03australia
02:10wait it could be debated whether or not this matchup is taking place because of
02:14austin theory or the loquacious grayson waller but either way waller's got a fight on his hands
02:21tonight who landed waller in the month volunteering his tag partners go one-on-one with ko
02:29usually it's the other way around i'm sure waller is not too happy that the boot is on the other
02:41we are in nxt territory tonight orlando florida and there is the reigning nxt champion
02:50ethan page i'm kind of honestly shocked we were able to fit his entire ego here inside of the
02:56all right that is a guy who wasted no time whatsoever in grabbing the top championship
03:01in nxt almost as soon as he arrived that guy again just like roxanne perez
03:09i agree but we're not worried about the future right now it's here it's now in ko is teeing off
03:14on grayson waller oh god i thought it was going to be easy waller that's what you said
03:19you just feel the vitriol oozing out of kevin owens don't write waller off too quickly as much
03:27as he is the least popular human being ever to walk in a wwe locker room he really can get
03:34jumped on belt about i would argue that waller for the first time in his life may be australia's
03:39second least popular athlete right now
03:46ko has waller where he wants him
03:50waller rolling out of the ring to the safety of his partner austin theory but here comes owens
03:57this is kevin owens in tune-up mode and grayson wall on x tweeted that ko has lost his edge he's
04:03gone from prize fighter to cody rhodes simp which to be clear i don't agree with at all but it is
04:11just added fuel to the fire kevin owens and face first into our announced desk goes waller
04:20owens just dropping the heavy artillery
04:24they just broke bad news barrett's headset in the process all of you saying this is your
04:31worst nightmare i'm cory graves calling the show alone and grayson waller just turned the table
04:36on owens who took his eye off the ball for only a moment courtesy of austin theory i think i'm
04:43back boys you are back thank goodness and the ozzy icon is in control for how much longer though
04:52not long
04:59oh no wait i think it's safe to say many members of the wwe universe right now are living vicariously
05:06through kevin owens who doesn't enjoy grayson while i get a beat up austin theory less or
05:14oh
05:23taking advantage of the opportunity that presented itself is grayson waller now
05:27scrambling for the cover hooking the leg of kevin owens being upset no now wait what would it do for
05:34the momentum and the mentality of kevin owens should he be defeated tonight or at any point
05:39leading up to bashing the lift well that is an ego crushing moment especially to this guy
05:45grayson wall the last guy you want to lose to elbow finds the mark hooks the leg yet again
05:52well let's talk about grayson waller you beat the number one contender for the wwe championship it
05:57may well put you in the conversation to be next in line after bash in berlin whomever the winner
06:03may be you see grayson waller taking it out on the style dropping the elbow right to the heart
06:08of kevin owens now waller trying to position the prize fighter on the top turnbuckle
06:13historically speaking wade never a good idea to attempt to superplex kevin owens i wish the
06:18locker room would start listening to cory grace you should charge for advice some guy on twitter
06:24show actually happened once years ago and grayson waller should follow that guy on x sorry once and
06:34only big right hand between the eyes of the aussie icon
06:41waller at this point hanging on to his own detriment a series of headbutts from owens
06:46ko as tough as they come swanton covered by owens
06:54well that that there in a nutshell is what makes ko so dangerous from defense
07:00for this kind of attack in the blink of an eye oh it's looking for the stunner
07:04waller able to roll him up such a well-rounded durable fighter but that is a
07:10slug to the jaw from a former amateur boxer in grayson waller
07:17waller certainly knows how to throw hands hangs owens up here comes grayson in between the rope
07:22stunner
07:26and if owens lands a stunner in berlin we may have a brand new undisputed wwe champion
07:40this is about more than a win wade this is about a message
07:45pop of powerbomb thanks for coming grayson here is your winner kevin who wins
07:58there is a stealing look in the eye of kevin owens we haven't seen for a little while
08:06it's almost like waller awakened something inside of owens into the prime hydration station
08:15you are the old ko
08:18oh no oh no waller said he wanted the old ko he does not want the old ko in any way
08:27austin theory man just saved waller's career this is a problem now for ko with a big championship
08:35match on the horizon it maybe would have behooved you to get the hell out of here while the going
08:42was good that championship match-up may be in jeopardy in a matter of seconds wade
08:50hang on it's a little raw reversal the american nightmare is here while ko has saved the bank of
08:59the cody roads more times than i can count the wwe champion returning the favor roads and owens
09:10standing side by side
09:40oh
09:58nothing but respect tonight from the prize fighter but the scene will be very different
10:05come bash in berlin as owens will attempt to take the gold from the american nightmare
