00:00The following content is scheduled for one fall.
00:19On the way to the ring, from Los Angeles, California, weighing 275 pounds, The Masterpiece,
00:27Chris Masters!
00:46And the opponent, weighing 326 pounds, Kane!
00:51A big Benvenu to our fans around the world, from Montreal, Quebec, Jim Ross here with
01:01Jerry the King Lawler.
01:02And folks, let me assure you that tonight's show is a lot better than J.R.'s French.
01:07Sheesh.
01:08Well, there's no question of that, King.
01:10These Montreal fans are ready to get started, and so am I.
01:14So what are we waiting for?
01:16He saw that one coming.
01:19He's got the crowd and his opponent in the palm of his hand.
01:24That can change in an instant.
01:26Especially if you let your opponent catch his breath.
01:29And it's been reversed.
01:39This match has the potential to be an instant classic.
01:42And I think these fans are too stupid to realize it.
01:45How can you say that, King?
01:47How can you insult the intelligence of these WWE fans?
01:52Well, I heard that we gave them an IQ test, and the results came back negative.
01:56Folks, I've got to apologize to the King here tonight.
01:59He must have gotten up on the wrong side of somebody else's bed this morning.
02:07There's the reversal!
02:09The very look at the confidence radiating off this superstar.
02:13All I see is an overconfident superstar who's throwing away the match by not following up.
02:20Oh, for the love of...
02:21Open your eyes, Randy.
02:23I can't believe you got away with that.
02:26Well, you might not like it, J.R., but he's going to do whatever it takes to win this match.
02:31He's going to do whatever it takes to win this match.
02:35What a counter!
02:44I think I know who's going to win this match, but I don't want to say.
02:47I'm afraid I'll jinx it.
02:49Come on, King. Don't tell me you're superstitious.
02:52Of course not, J.R.
02:54I'm not superstitious, because I know that's unlucky.
02:57I'm not superstitious, because I know that's unlucky.
03:00Of course not, J.R.
03:01I'm not superstitious, because I know that's unlucky.
03:12Oh, boy, this is not going to be an easy hole to escape from.
03:16It sure isn't, J.R.
03:17I've been on the wrong end of that many times.
03:20A textbook reversal there.
03:23Did you see that?
03:25Ring the damn bell!
03:27You can't let somebody get away with that!
03:29I don't think the ref saw it, J.R.
03:31And if the ref doesn't see it, it's not illegal.
03:42I feel like we shouldn't even be talking during this match, J.R.
03:47I feel like we shouldn't even be talking during this match, J.R.
03:51We should just silently admire the masterpiece.
03:54Like his opponent telegraphed that one.
04:04I know you're not a fan of everybody in this match, J.R.
04:07But you've got to respect their dedication to this business.
04:10Oh, absolutely, King.
04:12I don't have to like everyone on the roster to acknowledge
04:16that they've all worked long and hard to master their craft.
04:20He's not going to get caught with that one.
04:26The submission has been expertly applied, and now it's just a matter of time.
04:30That's right, J.R.
04:32You've either got to break the hold or get broken by it.
04:43So who do you think is going to win this match, J.R.?
04:46I'm not even going to hazard a guess, King.
04:49These superstars are so unpredictable,
04:52that would be just about the most foolish thing I could possibly do.
05:05These superstars are feeding the heck out of each other,
05:08and this crowd can't get enough of it.
05:10It's what they paid to see, King,
05:12and they're getting their money's worth tonight.
05:15They sure are, J.R.
05:16There's no question these superstars are earning their paychecks.
05:28I don't even know if you can use the word monster to describe King anymore.
05:34He's become so twisted and so evil
05:37that it almost sounds like a compliment.
05:40King's never going to be up for the Humanitarian of the Year award, J.R.,
05:44but I think that's exactly what makes him such a great superstar.
05:49He'll stop at nothing to get what he wants,
05:51and that makes for some great competition.
05:54That might be true, King,
05:55but King also takes a perverse pleasure
05:58in inflicting as much pain as possible on anyone who steps in the ring with him.
06:04How can having a superstar who tries to end the careers of his opponent
06:09be anything but bad for the business?
06:12Simple, J.R.
06:13No! No!
06:15How can the referee allow something like that?
06:18Come on, J.R.
06:20You know that the referee's health plan doesn't include vision.
06:30He reversed it!
06:34He reversed it!
06:36He reversed it!
06:38He reversed it!
06:40Can you believe we actually get paid to do this job, J.R.?
06:43It's like a dream come true, King.
06:46Except when I sit here and listen to you drool over the Divas.
06:49Come on, J.R.
06:50You know I'm helpless when it comes to puppies.
06:53Oh, I know, King.
06:55And that's why I'm bringing a pitcher of ice water out here with me next time.
07:05Oh, man!
07:06That's gonna change the tone of this match, J.R.
07:08Yeah, and not for the better, either.
07:10I wish the ref would actually pay attention to what's going on.
07:22This is great!
07:23This could be a pinfall!
07:24Why?
07:25That's nowhere near a three count!
07:35No matter who wins this one, everyone's gonna feel the effects of this match tomorrow.
07:39No doubt about it, King.
07:41But if you win, you don't have to deal with her pride on top of it.
07:52Excellent counter!
07:53What great presence!
08:02Let me tell you, J.R.
08:03You won't see action like this anywhere except on RAW.
08:06That's for sure, King.
08:08There's not another brand of sports entertainment out there that can compare with RAW.
08:13Now, if only we could get that through Michael Cole and Taz's heads,
08:16then they'd stop running their mouths on SmackDown.
08:27I talked to these superstars backstage before the match,
08:29and I don't think I've ever seen competitors so ready to get it on!
08:32And that's coming through loud and clear here tonight in this match.
08:36They're not taking it easy on each other, either.
08:39It's been said a million times, but I'll say it again.
08:42This isn't ballet.
08:44Ruthless aggression is the name of the game.
08:51His opponent's down, and now he's sharing a piece of his mind.
08:55He's gonna have to eat those words by the end of this match, J.R.
08:59I can't believe he counted that one!
09:08He's taken every advantage in this matchup,
09:11and it looks like he plans on taking a few more!
09:14If he's not the dirtiest player in the game, J.R.,
09:17he's a shoe-in for second place.
09:19He's a slippery devil.
09:29I thought I'd pick the winner before the match started, J.R.,
09:32but now I'm having second thoughts!
09:34Well, I'm glad to hear that, King.
09:36Usually, I wonder if you've even had first thoughts.
09:43I don't think the fans appreciate...
09:44The referee is down,
09:46and now there's no one to maintain order in this match!
09:49Where do they find these referees, J.R.?
09:51They seem to be awfully fragile.
09:53He turned the tables on his opponent with that one!
10:05Boy, these superstars have impressed the heck out of me here tonight!
10:09Same here, King.
10:10We expected a solid match.
10:12We're seeing a great one unfold.
10:14What a reversal!
10:20And now a pin!
10:21This could be it!
10:22Didn't even get a two-count on that one!
10:29Look at this!
10:30Look at this!
10:31You talk about a house of fire, J.R.!
10:34And now a pin!
10:35This could be it!
10:36Didn't even get a two-count on that one!
10:38And now a pin!
10:39This could be it!
10:40Didn't even get a two-count on that one!
10:42You talk about a house of fire,
10:44you're seeing it right here!
10:46Yeah?
10:47Well, somebody better put out that fire,
10:49or this one's not gonna end well!
10:58I think I see where this one's going, J.R.
11:01I don't think we're very far from the end of the match.
11:03I disagree entirely, King.
11:06I'd bet my Oklahoma Sooner ass
11:08that this one isn't even close to being over.
11:11That's a pretty big bet, J.R.
11:13Are you sure you're able to cover it?
11:23I'll admit it.
11:24It's a little scary to watch up close,
11:26but I love watching...
11:28Oh my gosh!
11:29Look at all that blood!
11:31That's gonna leave a mark.
11:32What a brutal match!
11:34The referee should step in there
11:36and stop this thing!
11:38What?
11:39Are you crazy?
11:40It's just getting good, J.R.
11:42You're not gonna get him with that one.
11:48Uh-oh!
11:49I think he's up to something!
11:51That's putting it mildly, King!
11:53This is it!
11:54The master lock!
11:55Locked in on his opponent!
12:02He countered that and made it look easy.
12:07It's fair and love and war, J.R.
12:09I love it when this guy goes to war.
12:11Whoever said that cheaters never prosper
12:14certainly never saw this man in action.
12:17He's going behind his opponent!
12:18And there it is, King!
12:20The master lock!
12:21He's executed it perfectly!
12:23Rope break!
12:32A reversal!
12:33Kenny kept the lies on.
12:39I don't think he's climbing up there for the view!
12:44He's looking for that finisher!
12:45And he can do it here!
12:46I don't know where he thinks he's going!
12:48This could be a mistake!
12:56He's got some evil intentions here!
12:59Oh, man!
13:00Ten feet in the air
13:01and all the way down again!
13:05He could pin him right here, J.R.!
13:07One!
13:08Two!
13:09Three!
13:10Listen to the crowd, J.R.!
13:11Wow, what a match, J.R.!
13:14There's no question
13:15that that was a hard-fought pin, King!
13:18I'm actually surprised at the outcome, J.R.!
13:20That match went a lot differently than I thought it would!
13:23Well, that just throws us over!
