00:00World Heavyweight Championship.
00:02Well, you got that right.
00:04It's a fatal four-way for the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:07Rey Mysterio, CM Punk, Batista, and The Undertaker.
00:12And to become World Heavyweight Champion,
00:14someone will have to find a way to unseat perhaps the greatest superstar
00:18that WWE has ever seen.
00:21I am the Reaper of Wayward Souls.
00:32I am the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:40This is the holy grail of everyone who steps foot
00:50in my yard.
00:54At bragging rights, three men will tempt their fate
01:00on a new battleground, Fatal Four-Way.
01:07CM Punk.
01:10The Undertaker is no longer the solitary icon here on SmackDown.
01:16I am the role model this world needs.
01:19CM Punk, you will personally hand me your soul.
01:25And thus, the symphony of lies shall end.
01:32Rey Mysterio.
01:35Although I am the underdog, he doesn't know the size of my heart.
01:42Your courage unquestionable, but make no mistake about it.
01:47I will show you no mercy.
01:52Batista.
01:54I'm not intimidated by The Undertaker.
01:57That title belongs to me.
01:59Our battles from the past are epic.
02:03But even your rage will not be enough to save your soul.
02:12The recognition that this championship brings
02:18will lead them down a road from which they will be sorry
02:24they ever embarked.
02:27Because one by one, you will rest in peace.
02:43Batista.
03:03After missing three months with a torn bicep, Batista could have chosen to go to any brand.
03:09He picked SmackDown for one reason and one reason only.
03:12To become world champion.
03:20And tonight, King, Batista gets his chance.
03:24Well, you can just tell by the look on the animal's face.
03:28He's focused. He feels it.
03:31He wants to be the world champion.
03:39Wow.
03:42Batista said, I'll do whatever it takes.
03:45Told his best friend in the world, Rey Mysterio, good luck.
03:48But I will leave Pittsburgh as the new world heavyweight champion.
04:09And it's no surprise who the underdog will be in this match.
04:12As usual, it's Rey Mysterio.
04:15But that has never stopped this luchador before.
04:18It's on Batista.
04:21It's on Batista.
04:24It's on Batista.
04:27It's on Batista.
04:30It's on Batista.
04:33It's on Batista.
04:36It's on Batista.
04:39It's on Batista.
04:42It's on Batista.
04:45It's on Batista.
04:48It's on Batista.
04:51It's on Batista.
04:54It's on Batista.
04:57It's on Batista.
05:00It's on Batista.
05:03Oh, like you said, ton of respect for Rey.
05:06Great friends.
05:08But tonight, it's every man for himself.
05:24Not exactly a warm reception for the first ever straight edge world champion CM Punk.
05:32But I don't think Punk minds very much.
05:36He is a low wolf, a renegade if you will.
05:41And has self-conviction like no other.
05:46He's the Elliott Ness of Smackdown.
05:48A man of convictions, right?
05:50How many times was he convicted?
05:53Punk says, listen, I'm the role model this world needs.
05:58That's what he said.
06:07Remember, Punk had an opportunity to win the world heavyweight championship 48 hours ago on Smackdown.
06:12In a submission match against Undertaker.
06:15But the best laid plans did not favor Punk on Friday night.
06:28Oh!
06:38Whoa!
06:58Man.
07:29Oh!
07:37From the fog.
07:39From the smoke.
07:41From the flames.
07:44A dead man cometh.
07:48Whoa!
07:51Whoa!
07:54We're looking at the seven time and current world champion.
07:58The demon of Death Valley.
08:00The Undertaker.
08:0413,562 of our great fans jammed into this arena.
08:09Absolutely in awe right now.
08:21And he is truly awe-inspiring.
08:25Has there ever been a more intimidating presence in the WWE?
08:29I wish you were on Raw.
08:34Ken, you know what I just found interesting is,
08:36Remember on Smackdown this past Friday night,
08:38In a submission match between The Undertaker and CM Punk,
08:41When the sticks looked like it was in,
08:44CM Punk was smiling at ringside.
08:46He was clapping. He was running around all confident.
08:48He doesn't look too confident right now, does he?
08:50Well, he had a little smirk or smile earlier, but you're right.
08:55Once The Undertaker entered this arena,
08:58Well, everyone's perplexed.
09:00Everyone's demeanor changed.
09:05And as far as the odds are concerned, guys,
09:08CM Punk has just as much of a percentage as anybody else to win the title here tonight.
09:1325% chance in a fatal four-way.
09:15Well, you're right about that.
09:16You don't have to beat The Undertaker to win the championship here tonight.
09:20Any man can beat anyone.
09:21The following contest is a fatal four-way match,
09:25And it is for the World Heavyweight Championship.
09:32Introducing the challengers, first from Washington, D.C.,
09:36Weighing in at 290 pounds,
09:39Batista!
09:47From San Diego, California,
09:49Weighing in at 175 pounds,
09:52Rey Mysterio!
10:00And from Chicago, Illinois,
10:02Weighing in at 222 pounds,
10:06Steve and Punk!
10:13And King, technically, everything's even.
10:15And from Death Valley,
10:17Weighing in at 299 pounds,
10:21He is the World Heavyweight Champion,
10:26The Undertaker!
10:32Everything's even with The Undertaker.
10:35That's what I'm saying, it's a 25% chance,
10:37But The Undertaker still has to be the favorite.
10:41I would agree with that.
10:43WWE Universe on the edge of its seat here tonight at the Igloo in Pittsburgh,
10:46And I'm sure they are around the world,
10:48In places like Australia and Spain and Mexico,
10:51And of course watching tonight via the Armed Forces Network all around the world.
10:56CM Punk with a flyby attack on Rey Mysterio.
11:00And Batista walks right into a straight right hand from The Undertaker.
11:05And judging from the past couple of weeks,
11:07CM Punk has some sort of strategy,
11:09Has something up his sleeve.
11:11What? We don't know yet.
11:14Well, if the first series of events was orchestrated in the mind of CM Punk,
11:20It was working to perfection, but no longer!
11:30And now the two big heavyweights colliding in the middle of the ring right now,
11:33Batista and The Deadman.
11:35Batista and The Deadman.
11:40The Igloo is electric right now.
11:43Remember, the first man to get a pinfall or submission,
11:46Leaves as the World Heavyweight Champion.
11:54Mysterio trying to build up a head of steam,
11:56But he's just kicked.
11:58I mean, the big boot.
12:01Boy, Rey Mysterio hit The Undertaker with about four or five great moves in succession,
12:07But that one big boot from Taker.
12:10The Undertaker came in here tonight like he had something to prove.
12:13Yeah. On fire.
12:15He has to prove that he's going to still be the World Heavyweight Champion at the end of this match.
12:19And again, what's unique about this is, as you mentioned, King,
12:22The champion does not have to be involved in the decision,
12:24But he does have to be involved in the decision if he wants to keep his title.
12:27That's why you need to have eyes in the back of your head to watch what...
12:30And now Undertaker going old school.
12:35The Deadman, a seven-time champion.
12:37In fact, every one of the superstars in this match have been champions, world champions.
12:45Look at the size disparity. Watch your back, Undertaker.
12:47And just when you forget about CM Punk, he arrives on the scene.
12:53The so-called choice of a new generation.
12:58Ooh.
13:00The Muay Thai master.
13:03One of the great strikers in WWE, but no one's a better striker than The Undertaker.
13:10If you use every part of his body as a weapon, it's...
13:13You witness right there with those headbutts.
13:18You see CM Punk, that's what I said about eyes in the back of your head.
13:20You've got to be aware of who's behind you, who's beside you, who's in front of you.
13:24And a superplex delivered by CM Punk.
13:26Look at Rey.
13:27And Rey Mysterio on the top rope.
13:31And Punk says, wait a minute.
13:33Don't pick up ice scraps.
13:35That's three times that Punk has sent Rey Stanley outside the ring.
13:41You certainly have to keep your head on a swivel in this match.
13:46I try to keep my head on my neck.
13:48Swivel would work as well.
13:51Batista.
13:53In fact, Batista and CM Punk recently had a one-on-one match on SmackDown.
13:57And CM Punk won via count out.
14:00Look at this.
14:03Undertaker just lying in wait as Batista was wrapping up.
14:07Speaking of lying in wait.
14:09Look at Rey Mysterio.
14:13Look at Rey now.
14:14That didn't work.
14:15No, it didn't.
14:16Oh, no, not the last ride.
14:18Last ride.
14:19Spear from Batista.
14:23Somebody's got to cover the Undertaker.
14:25Who's it going to be?
14:29Come on.
14:30I don't want to waste an opportunity here.
14:37Uh-oh.
14:39It's very rare that you get the Undertaker flat on his back.
14:43And now Batista and Rey Mysterio is teeing it up.
14:46619.
14:48And in.
14:49Hit it.
14:50And in.
14:51Hit it.
14:53A spinebuster for Batista for the World Heavyweight Championship at CM Punk.
15:02And I bet Batista thought right there, I'm the new champion.
15:05I've got the Undertaker.
15:08But the straight-edge superstar makes the save.
15:12Well, Batista and Rey Mysterio certainly on the same page there momentarily.
15:16Working to their advantage.
15:19Well, Batista and Rey Mysterio, former tag-team champions together.
15:23Sleep right on the button.
15:25Punk has Mysterio down.
15:28Oh, and Batista.
15:31That was close.
15:32A couple of near falls.
15:34Oh, man, it was close.
15:38And this match has been a hundred miles an hour from the opening bell.
15:42Oh, no, no, no, no.
15:44Hell's Gate.
15:45Is it sunk in?
15:46If Batista taps out here.
15:47The Undertaker retains the title.
15:50It's locked in.
15:52Oh, and I thought that was it.
15:54Batista was writhing in pain.
15:56Hell's Gate was locked in.
15:58The same Hell's Gate that made CM Punk tap out this past Friday night.
16:07CM Punk broke up two pinning conversation.
16:11Easy for you to say.
16:12What did I say?
16:13Combinations.
16:14Yeah, thanks.
16:16CM Punk saved him twice.
16:18Watch it now.
16:20And a running knee.
16:23And the man who tells the WWE Universe to just say no may be saying yes to a last ride.
16:32That's it.
16:34The Undertaker has CM Punk down.
16:38And Batista this time.
16:39Man.
16:42Every superstar in this match has had an opportunity to get the win.
16:47Well, it is every man for himself.
16:50And that may have been Undertaker's best shot.
16:55The first superstar to get a pinfall or submission is the winner.
16:59Man.
17:03How would you like to be at the receiving end of one of these shots?
17:05No way.
17:07These guys literally throwing bombs.
17:13Batista getting the best of it.
17:17Oh no.
17:19Batista's up.
17:20Batista had a chokeslam.
17:22The Deadman is Batista.
17:24You're going to rest in peace.
17:26No, it's Punk again.
17:29And CM Punk is playing defense perfectly.
17:37I think that's four times CM Punk has stopped a three count.
17:45I mentioned that every one of these superstars have won a world championship.
17:48Sixteen world champions combined in this match.
17:55Certainly a lot of star power on display.
18:00Speaking of stars, CM Punk over the top rope seeing stars right now.
18:07And now it's just The Undertaker and Batista in the ring.
18:15Well, that's a signal you don't want to see if you're The Undertaker's opponent.
18:18No.
18:21Batista able to slide his way out.
18:24Batista Bomb coming.
18:25Are you going to see a 300 pound Batista Bomb?
18:27Yes, we will.
18:29The animal has worked into a frenzy here.
18:34Oh, and Rey Mysterio.
18:35What?
18:36Look at this.
18:37Mysterio.
18:38No.
18:48I was this close.
18:49What did you do, man?
18:50You kept me.
18:52You're supposed to be my friend.
18:55What the hell?
18:56No.
19:03He said there would be no friends in this match.
19:05And that's what we're seeing.
19:06The Undertaker.
19:07Another chokeslam.
19:08Yes.
19:11A chokeslam.
19:13The animal.
19:16The animal's down.
19:17One, two.
19:22Undertaker cannot believe it.
19:26Can't believe what just transpired between Batista and Rey Mysterio.
19:30Let us not forget the World Heavyweight Championship is on the line here.
19:39Undertaker just lying in wait, waiting for Batista to get back to his feet.
19:43I think The Undertaker may be thinking another chokeslam.
19:46Oh, yes.
19:50Batista.
19:52Digging deep here.
19:53Because he has to.
19:54Chokeslam.
19:56Double chokeslam.
19:58Both men are down.
20:00And here's Punk.
20:02What?
20:04I thought Punk had weaseled his way to another victory.
20:07Another World Championship.
20:08He may have.
20:09No.
20:11And that, I believe, may have been Punk's plan all along, King.
20:15Let everyone else do the work.
20:17Yes.
20:18Everyone else do the dirty work and Punk pick up the pieces.
20:21He doesn't have to pick himself up off the floor.
20:23Look out.
20:25Mysterio off the top rope.
20:27Right into the arms of Batista.
20:29Who throws?
20:30Oh, no.
20:33Look out, ladies and gentlemen.
20:35This may do it.
20:37Here we go, Batista.
20:39A tombstone power driver from the dead man.
20:43And he is still your World Heavyweight Champion.
20:50Here is your winner, and still the World Heavyweight Champion,
20:58The Undertaker.
21:02Oh, man.
21:07Wait.
21:10I don't know what to say.
21:11I'm still a little bit in shock at the way that entire scenario unfolded.
21:16I mean, first the breakdown between Batista and Rey Mysterio.
21:22And then The Undertaker capitalizing on it.
21:26What a match.
21:29The numbers were not in The Undertaker's favor.
21:32It could have gone either way.
21:34But when all is said and done, the demon of Death Valley walks away with the gold.
21:41And here's what you were talking about, King.
21:44Yeah, Batista got rid of everybody.
21:48And it was every man for himself.
21:50Batista thought that was going to leave him alone with The Undertaker.
21:52Well, it did.
21:53But it didn't work out the way Batista planned.
21:55Dropped right in his hand.
22:13To be continued...
