01:36Wrestling has more than one royal family.
02:06The following is a tag team match scheduled for one fall, making his way to the ring.
02:34From Atlanta, Georgia, weighing in at 222 pounds, he is the undisputed WWE Champion,
02:51the American Nightmare, Cody Crowe!
03:00Corey, remember a number of weeks ago at the college football game when the marching band played Cody Rhodes' theme and it went viral all over social media?
03:08Well, that band is here with us tonight.
03:10Please welcome the University of Arkansas Pine Bluff Marching Band welcoming Cody Rhodes to the ring in the biggest match of his career, in the most important city to his family, Atlanta, Georgia.
03:25An entrance befitting the quarterback of the team, Cody Rhodes, with home field advantage tonight.
03:32But home field advantage can also mean extra pressure.
03:36Will Rhodes crumble or will Rhodes shine like a diamond?
03:40But when you're the quarterback, what do you do?
03:44You use the best weapons available to protect your house, to help your team win, to represent your people, your city, and tonight, your Nightmare family.
03:57Cody Rhodes' father, the legendary late great Hall of Famer, the American dream, Dusty Rhodes, wrestled over 200 matches in this city.
04:08His first was on the 1st of May in 1974.
04:12In June of 1981, he beat Harley Race for the NWA World Championship.
04:18In July of 1987, Dusty Rhodes in the first ever war game here in Atlanta.
04:24And tonight, his son, the undisputed WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes, goes to battle in the most important match of his career in the city of Atlanta.
04:38Don't follow me until the end, I am the king of, you took it all away, I give it all away.
05:08Don't follow me until the end, I am the king of, you took it all away, I give it all away.
05:18Don't follow me until the end, I am the king of, you took it all away, I give it all away.
05:28Don't follow me until the end, I am the king of, you took it all away, I give it all away.
05:58Don't follow me until the end, I am the king of, you took it all away, I give it all away.
06:08Don't follow me until the end, I am the king of, you took it all away, I give it all away.
06:18Weighing in at 265 pounds, Roman Reigns!
06:32The Georgia Philharmonic helping Roman Reigns make his way to the ring.
06:38And the question tonight is, will history repeat itself?
06:431980, in the historic Omni, which stood on the same ground as the safe barbarita.
06:51In a steel cage match, mortal enemies who became friends.
06:59Dusty Rhodes, Oli Anderson, would have a match versus The Assassin.
07:05And in that match, after a year long friendship, after many years as enemies,
07:11Oli Anderson did the unthinkable.
07:14He pummeled Dusty Rhodes, a year and a half old trap, to get rid of the American dream.
07:27Will Dusty's son suffer that same fate tonight?
07:31Can he trust Roman Reigns?
07:34Roman Reigns!
07:36One of the greatest betrayals in Dusty's career, in Dusty's life.
07:41But Cody is a man who is extremely familiar with the old parable about the scorpion and the frog, Michael Cole.
07:48We've heard it come from Cody's own lips.
07:51Cody Rhodes knows what he got himself into tonight.
07:54If you want to talk about a quarterback needing weapons, how do you fight a Samoan werewolf, Michael Cole,
08:01with a Samoan warhead, the OTC?
08:07Can Cody trust Roman? Now, Roman gave Cody his word.
08:11But this is what I just realized, is Roman Reigns walked down to the ring.
08:17This is the first entrance for a match that Roman Reigns has made in nearly four years,
08:24without the championship strapped around his belt, around his waist.
08:29The last time we saw Roman enter the ring for a match was at WrestleMania.
08:32He was the champion at that time, before Cody Rhodes finished the story.
08:36Roman looks naked without the title.
08:39Yeah, but the tribal chief looks to be in phenomenal physical condition.
08:43Perhaps the best we've seen.
08:45Looks like Roman put on a little lean muscle, looking absolutely ripped, jacked, and ready for battle.
08:59And Reigns is staring a hole through Solo Sakoa,
09:03because Roman believes that Solo's possession of the Ulufala is blasphemous.
09:11So let us talk about what this match for him means,
09:14for Solo Sakoa, as the tribal chief of the newly formed bloodline.
09:23I'll tell you what it means, Cole, and I'm going to sum it up in a phrase.
09:26The king is dead. Long live the king.
09:29Solo Sakoa needs to claim the throne by destroying Roman Reigns.
09:34The WWE Universe will not accept Solo as their tribal chief.
09:38Obviously, Jacob Batu, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, look up to and believe in Solo Sakoa.
09:45But Solo cannot claim the right to that throne, as long as there is still breath in Roman's lungs.
09:52Discussion with Roman and Cody on who wants to start this match.
09:55We've talked a lot about the history between these two men battling for the championship over the last couple of years.
10:02But I cannot not look back at what happened back at Battleground in 2013.
10:10That was the night that Cody Rhodes and his brother Goldust would battle Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins.
10:18Dusty Rhodes was out there as well.
10:20It was the night that the careers of Cody and Goldust and Dusty were on the line.
10:25This is a deep-rooted, personal, family rivalry for many, many years.
10:31Cody! Cody! Cody!
10:41Even though Reigns and Rhodes have settled on Cody beginning the matchup,
10:46we're about to find out if the team is greater than the sum of the parts as pertains to Rhodes and Reigns.
10:53Because we know that Jacob Batu and Solo Sakoa are on the exact same page.
10:58Because Jacob does whatever Solo wants.
11:01And Cody fired upside headlock to start this matchup.
11:04First time ever Rhodes and Reigns teaming together here tonight at Bad Blood.
11:13Run, Nick! Run, Nick!
11:20Slides underneath those Rhodes, kick right to the knee, and there's the big right hand.
11:24There's Goldust.
11:26And off the second rope, and disaster kick, and Jacob Solo goes down.
11:32Not only did Jacob eat the disaster kick, he immediately returned fire in the form of a super kick.
11:39And now they self-replied against the new tribal chief, Solo Sakoa, into the ring, and here comes Roman.
11:56O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C!
12:09Obviously Roman has never been an opponent of Solo, never been in a match with Jacob Batu.
12:19And now we reset.
12:26O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C! O-P-C!
12:36...playing a role in the early moments of this matchup, but fortunately for Solo and Jacob, this is not unfamiliar territory.
12:43Solo is used to being booed and roused by the WWE Universe
12:47because they don't believe he is what he says he is,
12:49the new Tribal Chief.
12:53Hostile territory is comfortable for the public.
12:57The same can be said for Roman, historically speaking.

15:20now Roman sends Solo over the ropes and right into our announce table
15:33the referee explaining to Jacob you got to make a tag but off the distraction
15:48solo from behind that's just the presence of Jacob Fatu beyond the
15:55presence of strategy because as we mentioned solo essentially controls
15:59Jacob Fatu's actions that was obviously a well-laid trap and Roman stepped right
16:04into
16:14I mean when you look at
16:19look at the victories against Fatu now headbutt to Roman Reigns

16:53love to do the same thing for Roman Reigns tonight in Atlanta he's doing it

17:21Jacob Fatu I can promise you Roman Reigns has never encountered an athlete
17:27quite like Jacob Fatu and the pace is picking up now the wild eyes of Fatu a
17:34human being who was blessed by the gods with every physical gift a man could ask
17:39for but none of the morale
17:44hey listen to the impact crushing Reigns' skull between his hip and the turnbuckle
17:53and now it's getting worse for the OTC at the hands of the world now driving
17:59the shoulder of the midsection Reigns and Jacob Fatu follows up with the right
18:03This is your drama team, Solo, your drama team, right back!
