05:03what a better way to do it
05:04John Cena AA'd him right in the middle of the aisle
05:06and left him for dead
05:08for Sting to come out
05:10Sting painted a freak to come out here and pick the bones
05:13pick the bones he is
05:14if that's the way you want to describe it
05:19I mean it's Sting's defense
05:20he's doing what anybody would do
05:22every advantage he can to win the WWE World Title
05:28well you do the same thing John
05:30so would you King

09:00yeah and then he tried to walk away
09:01but he came back Michael
09:03yeah when he realized Sting was

09:54until he was driven through the announce table
09:56it's been all Rollins since then
09:58you understand me
10:00this is my time
10:02Sting
10:06Sting firing back with rights
10:08back to his feet
10:09now Sting again
10:12Rollins looking
10:13to put Sting away
10:19oh no
10:27Rollins for the win
10:29to retain the championship
10:30You'd be a champ in a two-count.
10:37I don't know where Sting is getting this resiliency from.
10:41I mean, man, going through that table like he did
10:44should have ended his night.
10:47Not for nothing, I'd have teamed with Rollins too.
10:50I mean, Rollins.
10:52Yeah, Sting, those great battles at Starrcade,
10:54those great battles at WCW,
10:56maybe he just never faced anybody as good as Seth Rollins.
11:00And Rollins looking for the pedigree here.
11:06Looking for the pedigree to put Sting away.
11:08No, no, no, Sting's not gonna let him do it.
11:12Sting knows what that feels like.
11:14Rollins now comes off, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.
11:16Rollins driven off the barricade!
11:18What?
11:19And that could be the turning point in this match.
11:24Sting caught Rollins standing on that top rope
11:27and just launched him, watch this.
11:29Watch how Rollins lands here, too.
11:31Yo, man!
11:33Seth landed awkwardly as he hit the barricade.
11:37Better angle here.
11:40Oh, man.
11:43Crumbling in a heap.
11:45But he's back up, look at this.
11:47He is set for take.
11:49Rollins, he's amazing here.
11:51Right, didn't even take the full nine count
11:53to get back in.
11:54Well, I think he realizes that hallucinogenic scene,
11:56he needs to beat Sting.
11:58He's gotta beat him, and Seth's mine.
12:00Wow.
12:06And Sting firing up now, close lines.
12:09Stinger splash.
12:15Stinger splash again, Rollins is in trouble.
12:18Yep, Sting's got him.
12:19Oh!
12:20Five, six, seven, eight.
12:29I don't know how he's done it,
12:30but Sting has weathered a terrible storm.
12:34Wait a minute, what?
12:36What is Sting doing here?
12:37Are you kidding me?
12:39Oh, no, no, no.
12:40Sting gonna fly, down goes Rollins!
12:42Oh!
12:43Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit, holy shit, holy shit!
12:50Sting throwing everything at Rollins
12:53for the WWE world title.
12:57Watch this, look at this, oh, man!
13:02He's squashed Rollins.
13:07That looked like Sting's second 1990.
13:10Look at Sting's arm and back,
13:12and where he went through that table.
13:15And now Rollins beating Sting as he comes back in the ring.
13:18Oh, Sting, Sting got him, Sting got him!
13:20Cover, cover, cover!
13:21Sting for the championship!
13:23Is it in the, Rollins away,
13:24and he got the foot on the bottom rope!
13:33Sting can't believe it.
13:35He thought he had the championship won right there.
13:38He is sitting and thinking, what have I got to do?
13:42Sting, Sting, Sting, Sting, Sting, Sting, Sting, Sting!
13:52Sting measuring his man.
13:54Rollins, he knows what's, oh!
14:06Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh!
14:09Sting, driven across the ring!
14:14And there's Sting, oh, and look at the kick
14:16right to the kidney.
14:22As he welts and bruises from being driven
14:24through the table over the back of the arms of Sting.
14:27Sting is spent, absolutely spent.
14:30He might be hurt.
14:32He ducked under that clothesline,
14:34but then he just collapsed.
14:39And the official's gonna call for the ringside doctor.
14:51Now, referee John Cone gonna keep Rollins away as,
15:02the trainer checks on him.
15:03It could be that all the battles and all the wars
15:05that Sting has fought has finally caught up to him.
15:12He may be human after all.
15:23He didn't quite recover ever since he went
15:24through the announce table earlier on in this match.
15:30Let's see, this may have been where he really got hurt.
15:34Watch his, watch his kidneys.
15:36Right there, between his shoulder blades.
15:42WWE fans here in Houston trying to will Sting on,
15:45but I'm sure he's not gonna, he's not gonna say he quits.
15:52This is where the doctor's gotta be very careful.
16:00Trainer leaves the ring, the official's gonna mark this
16:02as restarting this match.
16:06Even the great warriors have their last fight.
16:10And Seth Rollins, they're gonna put an end to it
16:12with a pedigree right here to Sting.
16:13Now Sting able to counter, handle the counter,
16:16going for the Scorpion Deathlock.
16:17Rollins on his side, Rollins over.
16:19Rollins on his shoulder, Scorpion Deathlock.
16:22Is Rollins gonna top out, championship on the line?
16:26Will Sting do it for the first time in his career?
16:30Is Sting gonna be able to do it?
16:32Rollins!
16:34Rollins knows he's gotta stay on his arm.
16:36Kick to the bottom rope, the first to break.
16:46Rollins surviving again.
16:51Oh, what a kick!
16:53And that drops Sting to his knee.
16:56And now Rollins, going for the pedigree.
16:59Sting again steps through, another counter.
17:01He's got it again!
17:02No, wait.
17:03No, Rollins, rolls him up, shoulders down.
17:06Rollins retains the title.
17:10Here's your winner, and still the WWE
17:14World Heavyweight Champion, Seth Rollins.
17:19Seth Rollins has defeated Sting to win the,
17:23to retain the WWE World Heavyweight title.
17:30Rollins has done the impossible.
17:32What a valiant effort by the icon, Sting.
17:36Everyone should be on their feet.
17:38A standing ovation for this young man
17:40and this great champion, Seth Rollins.
17:44Seth Rollins retaining the WWE World Heavyweight Championship
17:48and this is where Sting got hurt.
17:50You're right.
17:51And right between the shoulder blades.
17:53He was wobbly after that.
17:56And then.
17:59Sting still with the strength to lock in
18:02that Scorpion Deadlock, but look at Seth frickin' Rollins.
18:08Turned things around.
18:09He countered the great finishing maneuver.
18:14Rollins with a great matchup versus Cena tonight
18:16for the United States title.
18:18Now he retains the WWE World Heavyweight title.
18:22Sting has won championship after championship
18:25for over 30 decades with that move.
18:27But Seth Rollins just caught, crashed, countered it.
18:30Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait a minute.
18:33Wait a minute.
18:34Wait a minute.
18:36It's Sheamus, Mr. Money in the Bank,

19:14Cain is here.
19:18Look at Sheamus.
19:19He can't believe this.
19:21Last we saw of David Cain,
19:23he had a serious problem with Seth Rollins.
19:25Yeah, he had his ankle shattered by Lesnar
19:28and then Rollins would knock Cain.
19:30He'd stomp Cain.
19:33And now this Cain, the Demon Cain is here.
19:38Chokeslam to Rollins.
19:44Payback.
19:48Come on, come on.

20:03Oh my God.
20:04Chokeslam to Mr. Money in the Bank.
20:08Sheamus still has the contract.
20:10He never cashed in officially.
20:18You know what they say about paybacks, John.
20:22Seth Rollins is about to find out.
20:24Seth Rollins is gonna rue the day
20:28that he poked this man.
20:33Tombstone.

20:44hellacious, threatening superstars in history.
20:48Who would have ever predicted
20:50what was gonna happen here tonight?
20:52Sheamus was set to cash in.
20:55Seth Rollins was in danger of losing his championship.
20:59And that monster, Cain,
21:02shows up
21:05with retribution on his mind.
21:09And he brought hell with him.
