FunTranscript
00:30So that's why they didn't arrive for the rest of the Judgment Day earlier tonight, huh?
00:48The guys in the truck were playing your iPod again.
00:56One thing, Dom and I share in common.
01:01Your love for lowriders?
01:05Hey, tilt, lean, and ride to the ring with a WWE Lucha Lowrider, available in stores
01:15now.
01:17I can't get the mental image of you hitting switches rolling down the street in a drop
01:21top, bro.
01:22I don't know if I like it.
01:23Hey, my wife was in a lowrider club when she was a kid.
01:27Those guys still talk to me beautifully.
01:32Well, you know, it's been seven years since we've had a Shark Kage match here in WWE.
01:39The last time we had one up, your better half was actually involved.
01:43That's right.
01:44I'm sort of an expert on Shark Kages.
01:45Carmella was involved in that matchup.
01:47But this isn't about the past.
01:48This is about the current, the present, the future, and true love.
01:54The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the Women's World Championship.
02:03Introducing first, accompanied by Dirty Dominik Mysterio, she is the Women's World Champion,
02:14who is Mar-Kay!
02:19You know, Corey, you and I were talking earlier today about the very famous last battle of
02:24Atlanta.
02:25The Steel Cage match back in October of 1983.
02:29Tommy Wildfire Rich and Mad Dog Buzz Sawyer, but there was a person in a, locked in a Shark
02:35Cage that night.
02:36There certainly was a man we are still familiar with to this day on Monday Night Raw.
02:43A WWE Hall of Famer, and there is our official Dan Engler, who has the referee cam on his
02:49ear.
02:50Maybe he'll finally see things right tonight.
02:51I thought that was one of Elon Musk's brainwave reader things, because God knows Dan needs
02:55all the help he can get.
02:58Look at this beautiful scene.
02:59This may be the last time we see this.
03:01Poor Dominik has to be forced behind bars again.
03:05Hey, the recidivism rate is very, very high when it comes to Dominik.
03:11And her opponent, from Adelaide South Australia, Priya Ripley!
03:28And her opponent, from Adelaide South Australia, Priya Ripley!
03:41You know, we saw Triple H earlier tonight, just a few moments ago.
03:45He was actually locked inside a Shark Cage back in 1999 when Mankind took on the Big
03:52Show.
03:53That's all well and good, but Triple H doesn't suffer from the same sort of trauma as Dirty
03:57Dom.
03:58Triple H never did a stint in the real clink like Dom did.
04:01Dom's never been the same again.
04:05You know what they do to guys as handsome as Dirty Dom in the joint cold?
04:09I don't know.
04:10I've never been in one.
04:11Oh, listen to one of your rap albums.
04:12They'll tell you all about it.
04:16And there it is.
04:17Oh, my God.
04:18Now, this is available on WWE Shop.
04:20It is Dirty Dom toilet paper.
04:23Now, you could use it to wipe tears away.
04:25You could use it to take your makeup off.
04:28You could use it to, you know, maybe wipe your hands down.
04:31Or you could actually use it to wipe your...
04:34Oh, great, great.
04:35Let's make suggestions, Cole.
04:36Let's be honest with ourselves.
04:37Priya Ripley had that merchandise made because Priya herself, behind closed doors, has been
04:42on the love seat alone with a pint of ice cream, crying her eyes out since Dirty Dom
04:47left her high and dry.
04:48It would be pretty cool to see all the ways that our WWE fans would be able to use Dirty
04:54Dom toilet paper.
04:55I'd love to see that all over X.
04:57You have no idea how wide you just opened Pandora's box, Cole.
05:01Have you met our fans?
05:03So, it's Ripley and Morgan for the WWE, I should say, the World Championship, the Women's
05:10World Championship tonight.
05:11I'm all flustered because in a matter of moments, Dominik Mysterio is gonna be locked inside
05:16a shark cage.
05:17And here's what interesting.
05:18Dominik is claustrophobic.
05:20Dominik is scared of heights.
05:22Well, listen, do we know for a fact that Dominik's claustrophobic?
05:26Yes.
05:27Or did Rhea just assume that because Dirty Dom was hugged up with the wrong woman for
05:30a long time?
05:40Rhea Ripley's an imposing figure.
05:42Maybe Dom just, you know, he wasn't capable of handling that sort of pressure at the time.
05:46Limbs suits him a little bit better.
05:48We've got the big bad booty daddy, Scott Steiner, in the front row, taking notes, trying to
05:53maybe catch a little bit of that rib shrapnel that Dom's shedding out here.
05:59Dominik very hesitant.
06:01Of course he's hesitant.
06:05Would you want to leave the love of your life to be locked inside of a shark cage, knowing
06:09full well that the love of your life is about to step into a WWE ring with a great white
06:14shark?
06:17Oh, let's look at it.
06:19You're always looking at everything half glass empty.
06:22Let's look at it.
06:23This half glass full, right?
06:24I look at it as a guy who's married to a hot woman.
06:26And you know what people who are happily married to hot people do?
06:29Don't do tweets.
06:30Now, listen, just listen to me for a second.
06:32Dominik is actually going to have a bird's eye view of this match.
06:35He's going to be able to have, it's like almost like having a drone.
06:38Wait a minute.
06:39I heard you say it.
06:40What do you mean?
06:41Like having a drone?
06:42He's going to be able to overlook the entire scene and watch the match and not get involved
06:46and watch his sweetheart actually maybe retain the championship without Dominik's help for
06:51once.
06:52This is cruel and unusual.
06:53And unfortunately, since it's steel bars, Dom can't put up a poster of Rhea and dig himself
06:58out with a spoon like he did last time he was locked up.
07:04And it's all about the Women's World Championship.
07:08Rhea Ripley forced to vacate the title after a Liv Morgan attack.
07:12She had held the title for 380 days.
07:25One more thing, Dom.
07:27One more secret.
07:29You're a little scared of heights.
07:32Raise him up, boys.
07:35Get him up there.
07:36Go on.
07:38No, no, no.
07:43No, no, no.
07:44Raise him all the way.
07:51This is cruel and unusual.
07:54The shark cage being raised.
08:00The panic, the terror in the eyes of Dirty Dom.
08:07Dominik will be able to do nothing but look on.
08:09Matchup underway.
08:10Liv Morgan distracted by Dom.
08:12Rhea Ripley being hung above the aisleway.
08:14And now Rhea Ripley starts the match for the Women's Championship.
08:18Rhea has been dying to get her hands on Liv Morgan in this type of situation with no shenanigans.
08:25Morgan's champion today because of Dominik.
08:27Let's just be very clear about that.
08:36Rhea Ripley unleashing all of her frustration, all of her fury on Liv Morgan.
08:41This could all ultimately result in a world...
08:43Oh, nice championship for Ripley.
08:46Fall away slam by Rhea Ripley.
08:48The world championship she never lost.
08:50Dominik looks on.
08:52Liv Morgan has called Rhea in an interview with the New York Post.
08:57Obsessive, stalkerish, and a stage five clinger when it comes to Rhea's ex-relationship with Dominik.
09:04Stereo now driven into a steel post.
09:06See, you were rolling your eyes when I was saying all this stuff.
09:08But that was in an actual publication.
09:10Yeah, but the truth came out of Liv's mouth.
09:12Oh, and Liv missed.
09:13And now Rhea Ripley using her power.
09:16Oh, Liv bounced face first off the apron.
09:22Now sent back into the ring.
09:24Remember, pinfall or submission wins the title for Rhea.
09:28Disqualifications, countouts don't matter.
09:30Listen, I don't want people to get the wrong idea.
09:32I'm a big fan of Rhea Ripley.
09:33Have been for quite some time.
09:35I just feel that it is completely unfair that Dominik and Liv are constantly harassed,
09:41constantly made fun of by not only Rhea Ripley, but her legions of fans.
09:46And Rhea Ripley now driving into Morgan and drives her to the floor.
09:49And Rhea Ripley just having fun now, toying with the champion.
09:54Dominik helpless.
09:59I wish the best for Rhea.
10:00I hope someday she meets a guy with big muscles, maybe even Australian.
10:05I mean, who knows?
10:06She deserves to be happy too.
10:07Just not at the expense of Liv and Dom.
10:11Beautiful dragon swing.
10:12Morgan turns things around.
10:13And remember, that knee has been a force to be reckoned with.
10:16And Rhea Ripley's knee has been a force to be reckoned with.
10:19Beautiful dragon swing.
10:20Morgan turns things around.
10:21And remember, that knee has been a focal point for many weeks.
10:24And Liv Morgan looking to take advantage of it yet again here tonight.
10:31Ripley now being attacked by Liv Morgan, who is stomping viciously on Rhea's knee.
10:38And there's a shot inside the shark cage, looking down at Dominik, who has yet to make it to his feet.
10:46Inside to look on.
10:48Very interesting interview with Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio, conducted by Jackie Redmond.
10:54We really got an inside look at Liv and Dominik's relationship as Liv continues.
11:00I suggest everybody take notes to find out how true love really happens.
11:07She said that she was first attracted to the mullet and the mustache, that combination.
11:14Oh, and a back elbow by Rhea.
11:16Slows the pace for Morgan.
11:19Slide underneath, sent Rhea face first.
11:22And now again working on the bad knee, the bad leg.
11:24Half grab now by Liv.
11:27Morgan really cranking on the left leg of Rhea Ripley.
11:33Rhea, long way from the ropes, has to try to drag herself and Morgan there or force a break here.
11:40And finally, oh and again, Morgan continuing to punish the knee.
11:46This is a great strategy.
11:47This is something similar to how I talked about earlier, expecting to see out of Finn Balor with Damian Priest.
11:52You take out your opponent's legs when they're overpowered.
11:55Rhea Ripley generates a great deal of her offense from her power generated by her legs.
12:01This is a great sound strategy by Morgan.
12:03And Morgan knew that she had hurt Rhea's leg a couple of weeks ago and has focused on it tonight.
12:08As Dominic Mysterio looks on from the Shark Cage.
12:14Remember tonight, 1988 Classic Champions.
12:17J.J. Dillon locked in a Shark Cage as Ric Flair took on Sting in the all-time legendary matchups.
12:27And again, Rhea.
12:28And Rhea now trying to build some momentum here.
12:30Ducks underneath Morgan.
12:32Ripcord, big kick by Ripley.
12:34And now Rhea.
12:35Nice suplex that time.
12:36Into the cup.
12:37Is it enough?
12:38And Liv gets the shoulder up at two.
12:45Poor Don.
12:46He's white as a ghost.
12:52Dozens of feet in the air.
12:54Well the thing is though, he's actually spent more time behind bars tonight than he actually did his first round.
12:59How dare you, Cole?
13:02That man served hard time.
13:05And Rhea across the ring.
13:07Liv caught her again.
13:08And the bad leg drags.
13:10Trying to drag Rhea out of the ring.
13:12Now using the apron to her advantage.
13:15The Shark Cage might even be worse than prison for Dirty Dom.
13:18He at least got three hots and a cot in prison.
13:23And now Liv continues to pound away at Rhea Ripley.
13:28I'm sure Dom got a lot more than that.
13:30Good worst.
13:31Look at the power.
13:32The legs again of Rhea Ripley.
13:35Rhea just writhing in agony.
13:49And this is really unfair to Liv Morton.
13:51Liv is here putting on a clinic that she has worked incredibly hard to strategize for.
13:55And the WWE Universe is busy disrespecting that.
13:58Rhea not even able to stand.
14:00Liv Morgan looks up at Dominik.
14:03I've called them the Bonnie and Clyde of WWE.
14:05Others want to refer to them as Romeo and Juliet.
14:14Pam Anderson, Tommy Lee.
14:17That's an interesting choice.
14:23And again, Rhea into the apron.
14:26And again, Rhea into the barricade.
14:29And Morgan has been so impressive here in this matchup.
14:34Liv Morgan generally is extremely impressive.
14:37And I wish that everybody would open their eyes and take notice of how talented Liv Morgan truly is.
14:42Sure, she may be a little polarizing.
14:44Yes, she's out of everybody's league.
14:46It's because Liv is out of everybody's league.
14:48People hate what they can never obtain.
14:50Big kick by Liv and Rhea stunned again.
14:54Uh-oh, uh-oh.
14:56Flip bomb into the barricade.
14:58That was gnarly.
15:00And Dominik a little more animated now as Liv has taken over this matchup.
15:05Liv Morgan said that she's upset because Rhea Ripley never admitted the things she did wrong.
15:11As Liv heads up to the top rope.
15:13And now to the second rope.
15:15And now...
15:16Oh my!
15:17Codebreaker from the second rope!
15:20Cover for the win!
15:21Hook of the leg.
15:22Rhea able to kick out.
15:28Take another look at Liv taking control of this matchup.
15:31Propelling Ripley into the barricade and following it up with a sky-high pair of double knees to the grill.
15:39And Liv Morgan said, Corey, that I'll take responsibility for the mistakes I made.
15:43I'm a home-wrecking, man-stealing, heart-breaking, title-taking, greatest champion of all time.
15:51She apologized. What do you want?
15:53Oh, and for the oblivion, great counter by Ripley.
15:56Holy cow!
15:57Came up a bit lame on that bad leg, but that was a great counter by Rhea.
16:00And now Liv realizes she's in trouble because Rhea Ripley countered the oblivion.
16:04And a big knee, and here we go.
16:06That might have just turned Morgan's lights out.
16:08The Eradicator going to work.
16:10Looking for a riptide on Liv.
16:12Liv trying to counter.
16:15Uh-oh, uh-oh.
16:16And does!
16:17There it is!
16:18Cover for the win!
16:19And a retain and a kickout by Rhea.
16:21Do you know what Liv calls that move, Cole?
16:23What?
16:24The home-wrecker.
16:25She told me today.
16:26Come on, Liv!
16:28It very nearly kept the gold for Liv Morgan.
16:34Unique offense from the Women's World Champion.
16:37What a beautiful piece of jewelry that is.
16:41I wonder if Dominik's sick to his stomach yet.
16:45Well, maybe.
16:46The amount of chicken tenders the guy eats is probably not healthy.
16:49But Liv's always there to provide a litany of sauces and options.
16:52Liv said there are three things that bring them together.
16:54Shoes, movies, and nuggets.
16:57Well, what more could you want?
16:59That's my man!
17:00You're nothing!
17:01Oh!
17:02Now try talking!
17:15And now...
17:16Come on, Liv!
17:18Ooh, Dominik there.
17:19Come on, Liv!
17:20Looking back at her bow.
17:23Suplex.
17:24Oh, look at what's coming!
17:25Looking for three amigos!
17:27Is Liv Morgan on Rhea Ripley?
17:32Come on!
17:33The third time could be the charm and could retain the championship for Morgan.
17:38Blocked by Rhea.
17:39Uh-oh.
17:40Liv out the back door.
17:43Rhea trying to fight back into this.
17:45Really on one leg at this point.
17:47Trying to power Liv up.
17:48Come on, Liv!
17:52Oh, and down goes Liv!
17:55Release lasers.
17:56Wait a minute!
17:57Dominik's got his arm open!
17:59It's a miracle!
18:02I think he picked the lock!
18:04Did he learn that in prison?
18:07What do you think he used?
18:08I don't know, Cole.
18:10I've never had to pick a prison cell lock before.
18:12I've been in a shark cage.
18:16Now Rhea going up to the top rope.
18:18Morgan in trouble.
18:19Rhea Ripley up top!
18:21And now she's paying homage!
18:23And now she's just lusting after Dirty Dominik.
18:30From the top!
18:31Raw splash to Liv!
18:33To win the championship!
18:35Hook of the leg!
18:36Liv kicks out!
18:37Ripley hadn't been so mesmerized by the true love of her life.
18:40She might have ended this thing.
18:41Well, the prison block could do it, too.
18:43Submission hold by Rhea Ripley.
18:45Capped out many.
18:46And now Liv Morgan's in trouble.
18:48If she caps, Ripley wins the Women's World Championship.
18:51This does not look good for Liv.
18:54This has got to feel horrible for Dom having to look on as this is happening.
18:57As this unfolds.
18:59Liv Morgan trying to drag herself to the bottom rope to force a break.
19:02And she does.
19:03Well, you know, Dom got the door open.
19:05What good does it do?
19:07That's a valid question, I guess.
19:08I mean, it's like trying to escape from Alcatraz.
19:10Where are you going to go?
19:11Alcatraz is in the water.
19:12You can swim, Cole.
19:13There might be sharks.
19:14It's like being stuck in prison on the moon.
19:18Except there's a lot more gravity in Atlanta.
19:20And now Rhea Ripley out to the apron, staring up at Dominik.
19:25Oh!
19:38And now onto the other side.
19:41Official Dan Engler, allowing a lot to go in this match-up.
19:46And again, just mocking Dom.
19:49to go in this matchup, and again, just mocking Dom.
19:53Out on the floor,
19:57Rhea Ripley looking up at Dominik.
20:04Gonna make Dominik watch the love of his life suffer a riptide.
20:09My God, and Dominik is helpless.
20:14And now Liv sent back into the ring.
20:23Let me check.
20:24No, no, no, no, no.
20:25My God.
20:26God.
20:27God, he's trapped.
20:28Dominik hanging from the cage.
20:34Somebody get some help.
20:36He's back on the chain gang.
20:37Call the CO.
20:38Hey, get in there.
20:42Where's Rhea going?
20:44Who are these derelicts?
20:46What are they doing?
20:47I think they're gonna try to get him down.
20:50Well, they should try harder and faster.
20:52Well, what do you want them to do?
20:54Hey, get me down.
20:58Rhea back into the ring.
21:03Liv Morgan has been helpless after being taken out by Riptide.
21:06One minute.
21:08I got unfinished business.
21:09You deserve that.
21:10I'm gonna come back and finish this in a second.
21:11Okay.
21:12Well, there's a real impartial official.
21:14Wow.
21:15Caught on camera.
21:16You crooked fool.
21:20Dan Engler going to allow Rhea Ripley to partake in some
21:24unfinished business here tonight.
21:28Believe me.
21:29Just because Dan doesn't know what it's like to be in love.
21:32I think the headquarters will be reviewing that tape.
21:35As Rhea Ripley now has a kendo stick in hand.
21:40Oh, my.
21:44What did I just thought?
21:45What?
21:48What?
21:49What do you think about it?
21:50What are you thinking, Michael?
21:52What are you thinking, Cole?
21:54Dominick's hung up like a stuck hog.
21:56I was hoping that was not what you were thinking.
21:58He has no idea.
21:59He has nowhere to go.
22:00Because Rhea's thinking the same damn thing.
22:02There's no way to get out of this.
22:04Hold on.
22:05Happy birthday to me.
22:06Hey.
22:08Oh, here we go.
22:09Cover up, Dom.
22:10Cover up.
22:13Rhea trying to knock the stuffing out of Dominick.
22:17I'm expecting candy to go flying everywhere.
22:21Hey, wait a minute.
22:22Who the hell?
22:26Yes, it is.
22:27Raquel Rodriguez.
22:30Raquel Rodriguez assaulting Rhea Ripley.
22:34We haven't seen Raquel in months.
22:37Well, Rhea's partially responsible for that.
22:44The bell is rung.
22:46Raquel Rodriguez just powering down Rhea Ripley.
22:51A Tejana bomb.
22:53Well, this is just obviously symbolic here because the bell's rung.
22:56The match is thrown out.
22:57Liv Morgan going to retain the championship via disqualification.
23:04Well, Raquel and Morgan, longtime friends, Corey.
23:08Remember, they were former tag team champions.
23:12It's good to see that somebody's still loyal to Liv Morgan and Dirty Dom.
23:17And you see the smile on Liv's face.
23:20Remember what Liv Morgan said to Rhea Ripley earlier on.
23:26She said, I may not be bigger than you,
23:29and I'm sure not stronger than you,
23:32but I am smarter than you.
23:36And with Dominic locked in her shark cage,
23:39Liv Morgan had an ace up her sleeve.
23:43Well, Rhea Ripley took her eye off of the ball
23:46to collect on a longtime old debt.
23:50And it was Raquel Rodriguez, a returning superstar,
23:56who would flatten Rhea Ripley.
23:58And there are not a lot of women walking God's green earth
24:01who are capable of power bombing Ripley like Raquel just did.
24:06On behalf of Liv Morgan and Dirty Dom,
24:10and I've asked you once, Cole, I'll ask you again,
24:14ain't love grand?
24:16I'll ask you again, ain't love grand?
