00:00Here comes the big dog like
00:25absolutely no other.
00:28You hear the roar of the crowd for Roman Reigns.
00:32You always say the most polarizing star in WWE,
00:35but the big dog ready to defend his yard tonight
00:39and a very important night for Roman Reigns.
00:41Perhaps the most important night of Roman Reigns career,
00:45because does he get another opportunity at the Universal Championship
00:49if he does not slay the beast tonight?
00:52Michael, I don't think there's any question that this is without a shadow
00:56of a doubt the biggest night in the career of Roman Reigns.
01:00You heard it in that package.
01:01I have to win.
01:04That's how Roman Reigns feels about this opportunity.
01:12Corey, what does Roman need to do tonight to finally beat Brock?
01:17I don't have a definitive answer for you.
01:20I will say that I believe of all people, Roman Reigns has finally found
01:25what could be considered the weak link in Brock Lesnar's armor.
01:30The beast's Achilles heel, if you will.
01:32Roman is in the mind of Brock Lesnar, which is why Brock had to resort
01:37to those heinous tactics last week with the pepper spray.
01:40Corey, we know this, that if Roman Reigns wants to win here tonight,
01:44that he already knows that he's going to have to take a beating of a lifetime.
01:48But we've seen it before.
01:49He's willing to do that and did some.
01:52I always look back to the first encounter at WrestleMania
01:56out in San Francisco, the Bay Area.
01:59Brock put a beating on Roman like Roman had never experienced,
02:02but still wore a smile through the entire fight.
02:06That's what Roman's ready for.
02:08Roman is ready to go out on his shield tonight.
02:11These are what the big moments are about.
02:13These big nights are about.
02:15Can you get it done? Can you dig deep?
02:19Can you take this opportunity?
02:22To climb the mountain.
02:52For 504 days, Brock Lesnar is ruled as universal champion.
03:09It is the sixth longest world title reign in WWE history.
03:15Will that reign continue tonight at SummerSlam?
03:23Take a look at Roman Reigns, never taking his eyes off of the universal champion Brock Lesnar.
03:33Nor is The Beast breaking his stare at Roman Reigns.
03:38Brock knows he's ready for a fight.
03:43Boy, the damage that these two have done.
03:46Talking about Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman in the last several weeks.
03:52They've enjoyed every single second of it.
03:55And it culminates here tonight at the Barclays Center.
03:57At SummerSlam last year, Brock Lesnar defended his title in a fatal four-way match successfully.
04:06The following contest is for the universal championship.
04:13Introducing the challenger, from Pensacola, Florida, weighing 265 pounds,
04:19Roman Reigns!
04:32Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman.
04:41Tonight, the reigning, defending, defending, defending, defending, defending,
04:55undisputed universal heavyweight champion, Brock Lesnar!
05:11That is what it is about, the WWE universal championship.
05:21This match will not be for the faint of heart.
05:23Wait a minute, wait a minute, Braun Strowman, Mr. Money in the Bank,
05:32who successfully beat Kevin Owens earlier tonight to retain the contract,
05:36is marching down to the ring.
05:40Remember the epic encounter in the past at the Royal Rumble between Lesnar and Strowman,
05:46was not for the weak of heart.
05:48And he's marching into the ring! Strowman is marching into the ring!
05:52Is it time? Is he gonna cash it in?
05:58Boy, this would be an extraordinary time for this.
06:09Strowman asks for a microphone.
06:12Everybody knows the history of this Money in the Bank contract.
06:41And I refuse to be a coward and cash it in when my opponent's back is turned.
06:54I am the monster among men, and I do things face to face.
07:01So good luck to you, Roman, and good luck to you too, Beastie Boy,
07:12because I'm gonna be standing.
07:14Beastie Boy! Beastie Boy! Beastie Boy! Beastie Boy! Beastie Boy!
07:29I'm gonna be standing right here this entire match,
07:33and I don't give a damn who wins,
07:36because at the end of the night, one of you two is gonna get these hands!
07:45Game changer.
07:48Braun Strowman made it pretty clear he's gonna sit back and watch this match.
07:54So he's just told the world he's gonna cash in the Money in the Bank contract.
07:59Roman Reigns with the Superman Punch from out of nowhere!
08:02And another one!
08:03And Lesnar! And Lesnar's in trouble!
08:05Roman Reigns taking advantage with the third!
08:07And the Beast is down! And now Roman Reigns!
08:11With a spear to Lesnar! A spear to the champion!
08:14Brock is stunned! Brock's in trouble! Reigns with another spear!
08:21Roman Reigns looking for the trifecta!
08:23One more and this one could be over!
08:25Lesnar can't get back to his feet!
08:27He finally does! And Roman Reigns with another spear!
08:31Oh no, but Lesnar's got the guillotine!
08:33Lesnar's got the guillotine!
08:35He's got it!
08:36What's Roman gonna do? Brock Lesnar from out of nowhere locking it in on Roman!
08:41Is Reigns gonna tap? Is he gonna pass out?
08:43There is nowhere for Roman Reigns to go!
08:46After three Superman Punches, three spears, and Strowman looking on,
08:51Lesnar was able to lock the guillotine in on Reigns!
08:55Can Roman overpower Lesnar?
08:58Roman Reigns back to his feet!
09:00A powerful spinebuster from Reigns!
09:02Both men are down!
09:05Great counter by Reigns to make Brock Lesnar let go of that hold!
09:09What an incredible start to this Universal Championship match!
09:13Talk about starting the war with your heaviest artillery, the Big Dog Braunette!
09:20Lesnar once again!
09:22Brock locking it in again, and now Roman's in trouble again!
09:25Can Roman Reigns somehow break it a second time?
09:27Roman trying to prevent Lesnar from locking his forearm in!
09:32Heyman screaming at ringside!
09:34Yeah, we know what this can do!
09:37It'll knock you out!
09:38Heyman is screaming at Roman Reigns to tap!
09:44Brock's got it locked in good, Roman again trying to get back to a vertical base,
09:47trying to power out of this again!
09:49Can Roman Reigns do it a second time?
09:51What an amazing show of power!
09:54The Big Dog trying to dig down deep, and he does it again!
09:57Brock's still got it locked in!
09:59Look at Roman Reigns!
10:00And again a spinebuster planting Lesnar!
10:03The Beast Incarnate was squeezing with every fiber of his being,
10:07but the Big Dog would not stay down!
10:09Lesnar goes 290!
10:13And Roman Reigns has been able to pick him up twice and slam him down!
10:17What a frantic pace in this Universal Championship match!
10:25Lesnar is startled!
10:27Reigns is gasping for air!
10:29It's obvious both Lesnar and Reigns want to end this as quickly as possible.
10:33They know Strowman is waiting feet away!
10:36And Corey, I thought they would focus on Braun,
10:38but right now they've got to focus on one another
10:40and can't worry about the monster in the back!
10:42Lesnar has ripped the gloves off!
10:47Bare knuckle, The Beast Incarnate!
10:49Roman Reigns better grit your teeth!
10:57Suplex number one!
10:59Roman's still trying to catch his breath from the guillotine!
11:02And Roman going to suplex city!
11:04A second time from Lesnar!
11:06And now The Beast is fired up!
11:09I think Brock Lesnar's found his second wind,
11:11and now he's starting to dominate Roman Reigns!
11:13Roman is gasping, trying his best to get full lungs, full of breath.
11:21Lesnar going for a third German suplex,
11:23and this time connects again to Roman Reigns!
11:26The Beast stares down at the monster!
11:30How about taking the time to look at Braun Strowman?
11:38Well, we know that Brock doesn't care about any of these people,
11:41that have shown up here in Brooklyn tonight.
11:44Of course, Roman Reigns never a stranger to a hostile environment,
11:47but right now, it's not about the WWE Universe,
11:50it's about the two men trying to destroy one another inside the ring.
11:54Yeah, for the Universal Championship.
11:56Lesnar now looking for an F5, perhaps.
11:58This is gonna do it!
12:00Roman Reigns, though.
12:03Here comes Roman!
12:04Suicide dive!
12:06Brock sidestepped!
12:08Roman took out Strowman!
12:10It's completely unintentional by Reigns,
12:12but what a brilliant ploy by The Beast.
12:15Yeah, clearly Braun Strowman did not see that coming.
12:19I don't know if Strowman...
12:20Turn around! Turn around!
12:21Oh, and now Lesnar!
12:22Oh my God!
12:23Lesnar poking the monster with an F5 to Strowman outside the ring!
12:27And that's one way to take Strowman out of the equation!
12:30Lesnar is smiling!
12:32Brock loves it. Smart move.
12:35You soften up Braun Strowman while you're taking care of Roman Reigns.
12:39Not many people can do that.
12:44And Brock, as Corey mentioned, a huge grin on his face
12:48as now he looks to drag Reigns back in the ring.
12:52Put Roman Reigns away as Strowman is still suffering the effects of the F5.
13:00And now Braun Strowman, though, grabbing the ankle of Brock Lesnar.
13:03And Brock now with the contract inside the briefcase!
13:08Using the briefcase as a weapon!
13:10And now slinging it a long way away!
13:16Did that just knock out Lesnar with a chair!
13:20And Lesnar with a chair assaulting Strowman!
13:26I think the monster in the bank might regret trying to make his withdrawal tonight.
13:30I guess that's one way to make sure that the contract's not cashed in.
13:34Yeah, you can respect the face-to-face, but right now it's the chair-to-back.
13:39He almost threw the contract over the East River.
13:44And now back into the ring.
13:46Brock Lesnar in a mood tonight.
13:48A vile and vicious mood.
13:51And Reigns with a spear to the champion!
13:54Here's the cover! Hook of the leg!
13:56Reigns did it! Roman Reigns did it!
13:59Reigns is the champion!
14:01Here is your winner, and the new Universal Champion, Roman Reigns!
14:09I can't believe it!
14:11Roman Reigns finally did it!
14:19The elation from Roman Reigns!
14:24The Big Dog has finally broken the stranglehold of Lesnar!
14:29And look at the reaction from Roman Reigns.
14:32And we got a call like we see it, guys.
14:35Brock Lesnar was billing himself.
14:37He was paying attention to Braun Strowman, and Roman Reigns struck.
14:42Brock Lesnar was trying to protect his Universal Championship,
14:46and Roman Reigns capitalized on the situation.
14:48Roman Reigns makes history tonight.
14:50He joins Brock Lesnar as the only man to hold the WWE and the Universal Championship.
