00:00:00Then, now, forever, together.
00:00:31A lot of gold there, because the champs are here.
00:00:34Monday Night Raw is lined up for yet another world championship match.
00:00:38This time, it's Bianca Jade.
00:00:40She takes off.
00:00:41Two dynamos gathering loads of momentum.
00:00:46Damage control feels this is their moment.
00:00:48Io Sky, Kairi Sane, they are confident.
00:00:51The WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match is ahead.
00:00:57And we're just two and a half weeks from Crown Jewel at Riyadh season.
00:01:01And that means best versus the best.
00:01:04Gunther is here.
00:01:06He just defended his title last week against Sami Zayn.
00:01:09Now, he goes for the glitziest of all, the 50 carat Crown Jewel belt.
00:01:14To win it, he's got to get past the undisputed WWE champion.
00:01:19Cody Rhodes has made his way to Raw.
00:01:22This inaugural Crown Jewel Challenge, bringing out the best in both men.
00:01:26And we will hear from them in a moment.
00:01:29Plus, Rhea Bloody Ripley.
00:01:33She is still hunting down the return of her old championship.
00:01:37She will have plenty to say about the recent obstacles she has been dealing with.
00:01:44Joe Testatore and Wayne Ferret with you on Monday Night Raw.
00:01:49Rhea Ripley, nine days removed from the kendo stick beatdown of Dirty Dom when he was hanging from the Shark Tank.
00:01:58And now, deep into more layers of Judgment Day to dig into.
00:02:02With an old rival back.
00:02:04Last week's Raw.
00:02:06Last week's SmackDown.
00:02:08She's been very busy dealing with that agenda.
00:02:18Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Rhea Ripley!
00:02:32That stare, that intensity.
00:02:35We've seen it ever since she was betrayed by Dirty Dom while challenging Liv Corgan at SummerSlam.
00:02:41And then, in Atlanta, when a former rival reemerged.
00:02:48Raquel Rodriguez, out of nowhere.
00:02:52Just when Rhea was taking out her frustrations on Dirty Dom.
00:02:56And this past Friday on SmackDown.
00:02:58Liv Morgan with Raquel and Dirty Dom in tow.
00:03:01Turning her attention towards her crown jewel opponent, Nia Jax.
00:03:06Raquel Rodriguez now, up on the apron.
00:03:10Liv with the Money in the Bank briefcase!
00:03:12Attacking Nia Jax!
00:03:14Naomi stacks up Jax!
00:03:17She did it! She's the champion!
00:03:20Wait a minute!
00:03:21No!
00:03:22Rhea Ripley's here!
00:03:23The Eradicator's here!
00:03:25As he's going after Raquel Rodriguez!
00:03:27And now, turns her attention at Dirty Dom and Liv!
00:03:31Oh no.
00:03:32Oh no, is right!
00:03:34Rhea just took out Nia!
00:03:36Now going after Morgan!
00:03:39And Liv Morgan scooting out of harm's way, thanks to Dominik.
00:03:50Liv Morgan!
00:03:52I'm not done with you or Raquel Rodriguez, no.
00:03:58Because this doesn't end until I get back to one thing that I never lost.
00:04:03And that is my Women's World Championship!
00:04:09So Liv, Raquel, if you're done running and hiding,
00:04:15then get down here into my ring so I can whoop your asses!
00:04:23Come on!
00:04:25It's tiffy time!
00:04:27Tiffy time.
00:04:33Missed Money in the Bank here.
00:04:35Oh yes, always welcome on Raw!
00:04:42Tiffany Stratton involving herself in all of this.
00:04:45She can do what she wants, she's Miss Money in the Bank.
00:04:48And perhaps she had a Tiffany epiphany.
00:04:51Yeah, Tiffany epiphany.
00:04:53Decided to fly into Raw and grace us with her presence.
00:04:58I'm not complaining, Joe.
00:05:00I don't see anybody in the arena complaining.
00:05:03We should roll out the red carpet for this woman.
00:05:06The pink carpet, in fact.
00:05:09The bejeweled pink carpet.
00:05:12It's a match for Money in the Bank briefcase.
00:05:17Not who you were expecting, Rio?
00:05:22I'm here because I have a very important message
00:05:27from the WWE Women's Champion, Nia Jax.
00:05:37Stay out of her business, or else you're gonna have a problem.
00:05:43A big problem.
00:05:50Tiffany, I understand that you think this is tiffy time and whatnot,
00:05:55but it's not, because I don't got time for this.
00:06:00Either I get my hands on Liv or Raquel,
00:06:04or I can welcome you back to Monday Night Raw the Rio Ripley way.
00:06:10Oh, they've got company.
00:06:11Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan.
00:06:13Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:15Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:17Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:19Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:21Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:23Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:25Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:27Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:29Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:31Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:33Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:35Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:37Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:39Raquel just slams down Tiffany Stratton.
00:06:42Oh, and a big boot!
00:06:50Well if you need somebody to deal with the Rio Ripley,
00:06:53who better than the massive Raquel Rodriguez.
00:06:56Oh, my! And Liv Morgan with the money in the bank briefcase
00:07:01right over the back and then throws it down on Tiffany Stratton!
00:07:09continue to grow for the Eradicator, but I'll tell you this, Joe, nobody chews up problems
00:07:16quite like Rhea bloody Ripley. And ever since Raquel Rodriguez came back at Bad Blood, this has
00:07:23been a whole new twist to the Liv Morgan Revenge Tour that nobody could see coming, and it happens
00:07:29again right here tonight on Raw. To think it's crossed over to this place now with Tiffy Time
00:07:35as well. Okay, now for the big one tonight, Wade, the collision course
00:07:38that we have been on for the women's tag titles.
00:08:05We plan on making them fall, and Damage Control will take over WWE again.
00:08:20Damage Control, y'all been tearing up these women's tag team division, but if y'all think
00:08:24for one second that Damage Control's about to take back over, y'all got another thing coming.
00:08:30Rihanna, I'm in your head already.
00:08:39You and I, we fought through the trenches to get our titles back, so best believe we're
00:08:43gonna be holding our babies for a hot little minute and bringing everything we've got.
00:08:47This is the moment, we are the chosen.
00:09:02A storm is coming.
00:09:08It seems like there's been a storm ever since Basher Berlin and the title
00:09:12win for Jade Cargill of Bianca Belair. They've been on a stretch of precision performances.
00:09:25Jade Cargill, one of the greatest physical specimens this industry has ever seen, and boy,
00:09:32oh boy, can she back that up in the ring. And speaking of somebody who always backs it up in
00:09:38the ring, one of the greatest to ever do it, the EST, who was recently confronted by Io Sky and
00:09:48had a thriller of a singles match. And now, with all the momentum they have gathered, with the
00:09:54belts back around their waist, it's time to defend against Damage Control. Bianca and Jade,
00:10:01and Damage Control, the Women's Tag Championship, coming up next.
00:10:12Pierce, I want Liv and Raquel tonight. You got it. I already talked to them. Good. But
00:10:23I cannot let you do it by yourself. I know you don't like that, okay? This is gonna be a tag
00:10:28match or it doesn't happen, which means you need to find a partner. I don't need a partner. Yes,
00:10:33you do. I don't want a partner. Who the hell am I supposed to have a partner? It can't be Priest,
00:10:37can it? What the heck, Pierce? Did you see what happened out there? Is that how you treat Miss
00:10:42Money in the Bank, Adam? Nick Aldis would have never done something like this to me.
00:10:55What about her?
00:10:59Fine. What does that mean? You will figure it out.
00:11:10What the heck? How about that migraine-inducing look? Andrea Ripley, as she will now be paired
00:11:15later tonight with Tiffy Todd, Tiffany Stratton. Meanwhile, these two, always cohesive,
00:11:21always in sync. The champs, Bianca and Jade. Oh, look who's here.
00:11:25Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson. Remember on Friday night, they took a shot at the champs
00:11:32before their bid was denied. But Lash and Jakara showing up ringside for this championship
00:11:39match. Of course, the challenge for Bianca and Jade, it's a big one.
00:11:45Damage control.
00:11:52Damage control has arrived. And they arrive with tons of confidence, coming off of critical wins
00:12:00on their step to the ladder to get this title opportunity. And for EOSKY individually, remember
00:12:07the big recent win against Bianca Belair, who waves her hand and says, come on, let's do this.
00:12:13Titles on the line. Of course, being Kairi Sane with Asuka, this would be the first time that
00:12:19EOSKY factors into that equation of winning tag gold here in WWE, exclusively a singles
00:12:27contestant, historically. That's correct. But boy, oh boy, does she want to get her hands on
00:12:32the tag gold held by Belair and Cargill. This is your big opportunity. We are ready for it, Wade.
00:12:41And here's the sensational Samantha Oak. The following contest is scheduled for one fall,
00:12:49and it is for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship.
00:13:00Introducing the challengers, representing Damage Control, the team of Kairi Sane and EOSKY.
00:13:11And their opponents, they are the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, the team of Jade Cargill
00:13:33and Bianca Belair.
00:13:41Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill weighed a 12-1 mark since they have come together as a team.
00:13:48Yeah, I'll tell you this, Joe, there's understandably always a certain swagger to
00:13:52Belair and Cargill. They have all the physical gifts in the world. They have the resumes
00:13:57to back up those gifts. But the truth is, I think the feathers of Bianca Belair were
00:14:02ruffled several weeks ago when EOSKY pulled off that singles victory against the EST right here
00:14:10on Raw. So Belair especially has a point to prove tonight. That was an excellent match,
00:14:15an unbelievable performance by both participants, but clearly EOSKY a high watermark. No doubt about
00:14:22it, but this of course being the tag division, there is a certain chemistry involved as opposed
00:14:28to singles competition and Belair and Cargill really are the proven commodity in that department.
00:14:35To the size and power of Jade Cargill. Jade just grows in experience week by week,
00:14:42but now the Vex in there, the leader of the team, Bianca Belair. Look at the teamwork here.
00:14:50Quick to cover. And right off the bat, Joe, we see the strategy of Belair and Cargill. It's the
00:14:59power game. Clearly EOSKY and Kairi Sane will have an advantage when it comes to aerial combat.
00:15:05The truth is Belair just needs to beat Sky down, keep her grounded, keep the genius of the Sky
00:15:12anywhere but the Sky. Bianca from that deadlift position looking for the vertical suplex,
00:15:22EO able to counter. Tag there that perhaps Belair didn't quite see at first.
00:15:27And look at how fast the slide down and then quickly getting on top was Kairi Sane.
00:15:35Massive contrast in the skill set of these two top tag teams.
00:15:41Doubling up the basement drop kick. Right now it's the speed and maneuverability of the
00:15:47challengers that has taken control of this match. Cargill looking to do something about that.
00:15:54Kairi Sane cross body out into the floor. And damage control in control with the tag titles on the line.
00:16:08Ah, the coveted gold of women's tag championships up for grabs as EOSKY has had
00:16:14Bianca Belair locked up. And oh the EST with a bridging pin attempt out of that.
00:16:19But her athleticism is just unreal. Tote uppercut straight to the jaw of Belair.
00:16:26And Belair is wobbled. You don't see that too often. Big stop from EOSKY.
00:16:34And we know EOSKY can hurt Belair. We know EOSKY can pin Belair.
00:16:40Several weeks ago she did exactly that. She does it here. We've got new tag teams.
00:16:45EOSKY just seems to have an answer for everything Belair throws at her but not that. Bianca Belair
00:16:55finding something deep inside of her. And now Jade wants that tag. The fresh Jade Cargill
00:17:02needs that. Watch it. Like a mech truck colliding with the genius of EOSKY. Both women are both
00:17:09women leading the tag to that fresh promise. Here comes Kairi Sane and here comes Jade.
00:17:17Oh, spinning elbow. Chop after chop. Cargill was just outmaneuvered but back to that power base
00:17:26of Cargill. That's the equalizer for her. Sane able to wrap up. Locking a choke hold here and
00:17:33she cinched it in deep. Jade Cargill went down to one knee for a moment. Powers her way out of it.
00:17:42Just as Cargill looked to be fading. It seems Kairi Sane simply is too quick for Cargill thus far.
00:17:49This time she catches the crossbody. Huge back breaker.
00:17:55Kairi Sane getting the stuffing knocked out of her. It's hard to move that fast
00:18:01when you simply can't breathe. Powerbomb delivered from Jade Cargill and the cover
00:18:10and coming in was EOSKY. Championship on the line. Championship opportunity was slipping away for
00:18:19damage control until EOSKY's intervention but it might be academic at this point. The champ's in
00:18:26full control and looking to put this one away. Kairi Sane getting out of dodge just in the nick
00:18:32of time. That is backfire for the champs. And look at Jade's reaction once she realizes that
00:18:37the target wasn't there. Jade was completely blinded by the fact that she was picking up Bella.
00:18:43Had no idea that Kairi Sane had moved. Genius up the sky. Missile drop kick. Springboards it and
00:18:51then picks up and now all of a sudden damage control finds momentum. With Jade Cargill nowhere to be seen.
00:19:01Right on top with that elbow.
00:19:05Hooks the leg to take the titles. Kick out Bianca. Oh man check this out. This is like a
00:19:13modified insane elbow from Kairi Sane. Pop up from the genius at the sky and now in the drop zone is Bianca Belair.
00:19:27And the over the moonsault comes up empty. Well thankfully for Belair it was Jade Cargill
00:19:32pulling her out of trouble and now the powerhouse Cargill taking out Kairi Sane with a little help
00:19:39from her friend. I mean Jade and Bianca and now look at this. Lash and Jakara. They just lost to
00:19:46them on Friday night and they're still barking and joying. EO springboard moonsault to the floor.
00:19:55And EO Sky.
00:19:59And now she gets the attention of Lash and Jakara saying hey this isn't your moment. Just sit down
00:20:04and watch. Oh a cheap shot to the jaw of EO Sky. I don't think Bianca Belair saw that that had
00:20:12happened. EO Sky damaged ringside and now Bianca Belair. Referee didn't see it either.
00:20:20The vertical suplex after she just ate that and could it be KOD. Bianca to retain. Yes.
00:20:35Here are your winners and still the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair.
00:20:51Well that was a hell of a championship contest just as it was coming to a beat. EO Sky mounting
00:21:00a Jakara Jackson and Lash Legend from NXT. That shot to the jaw though was all it took
00:21:06for Bianca Belair to lock in the KOD. It connected with everyone else down.
00:21:13Successful rotation for the tag champs but my oh my there is trouble brewing
00:21:20between Damage Control and Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson.
00:21:30Oh here he is now. Oh there you are. I haven't heard you wanted to talk to us. Actually I wanted
00:21:33to talk to both of you. Yeah so come on spit it out. When is my rematch with Damien? This is not
00:21:39about Damien. Whoa whoa I don't think you're understanding me. When is my rematch with Damien
00:21:44because I want it. Finn maybe you're not understanding me. This has nothing to do with
00:21:49Damien and everything to do with the obligations that you two have to the World Tag Team. Obligations?
00:21:53Yeah like defending them. Pierce we defended these last month. And that's the problem. I gave you all
00:21:57the time in the world to deal with your Damien Priest problem. And it's still not resolved and it
00:22:01needs to be resolved. It is resolved and now that it is I'm just letting you both know that I'm
00:22:05setting up a tournament to find challengers for these. Does it look like we care?
00:22:13You better.
00:22:17You know I'm really starting to dislike that man you know it's just cockiness.
00:22:20I know. Hi so how'd it go? When's the rematch with Damien?
00:22:24What? Not good.
00:22:28Where's he gone? Didn't go good. You know rematch. Well at least we can all focus on
00:22:33keeping our championships. True. Oh yeah and I'd like you guys all to meet Raquel Rodriguez.
00:22:41Are you okay? Yeah. Come on in. Yeah say hello.
00:23:11Randy Orton and Roman Reigns.
00:23:17Friday night Smackdown. Friday 8 7 central only on E!
00:23:29Webster's Dictionary defines greatness as the quality or state of being excellent in size,
00:23:35skill, achievement, or power. Hey Merriam-Webster you idiot. How about next time just look at a
00:23:45photo of American Maid. This is the land of opportunity so everyone in that locker room
00:23:51now has the opportunity to get their teeth kicked in by the greatest athletes in the world.
00:23:57We're sick and tired of you entitled degenerates just looking for handouts.
00:24:05This country needs a hero. All of you in the WWE universe need a hero and it's my pleasure to let
00:24:12you guys know we're gonna be that for you. So sit back and watch. We'll put the team on our back and
00:24:19So sit back and watch. We'll put the team on our back and show the world what it means to be American Maid.
00:24:28So sit back and watch.
00:24:36Everybody wants to know why. Why did I turn my back on Jey Uso?
00:24:44So it's really not all that complicated.
00:24:49See Jey, you lucked into the biggest lottery of your entire life a few weeks ago when you beat me
00:24:56for the uncountable championship. So what do I do out of respect? I march down to the ring.
00:25:06I shake your hand and tell you congratulations out of respect.
00:25:13And what do you do? You throw it back in my face as if I'm not gonna see it.
00:25:21Not once did you say that you respected me. Not one time did you say that you respected me
00:25:28as a champion and maybe one day you would be the caliber champion that I am which we all know
00:25:35you won't. See we're not the same Jey. We're not a couple second third generation superstars
00:25:42carrying on our family's legacy because I'm doing this on my own. I don't need my family's help.
00:25:48I don't need the name. I don't need them here because one day when I surpass them in success
00:25:55they can give me the stamp of approval. The same amount of respect that I have for them they'll have
00:26:02for me. And not like you. You've been sucking off your family's legacy for the past 14 years
00:26:12and then finally when your cousin is on top of the mountain you all of a sudden decide that you
00:26:18want to do it on your own now. You want to get fed too. You want to do it on your own Jey?
00:26:24You want to do it on your own but you're gonna take this ass kicking on your own too.
00:26:31Because I'm coming back for my intercontinental championship.
00:26:37And the beautiful thing is Jey, your family
00:26:47cannot save you
00:26:50from me.
00:26:58And when Paul Breaker sets his mind to something historically speaking he doesn't
00:27:03fail. This could be a big problem for Jey himself. Yeah,
00:27:06Ron Breaker could be in line for a quick turnaround title rematch.
00:27:12You know Bronson this might surprise you but I appreciate your time. And the reason I called
00:27:17for this meeting is real simple. I need to make sure that you and I... Hey hey let's just talk
00:27:23business. You know I'm gonna give you credit. You have made one hell of a name for yourself in a
00:27:29very short period of time and everybody knows I give you and the rest of the roster the leeway
00:27:33they want to handle things on Raw the way you want. And that means chaos. It means it's wild.
00:27:37It means I take the criticism. But what you did with Braun? Last monster standing. You sling my
00:27:42referees around. You go through the wall. You put the WWE universe at risk and I can't have it.
00:27:47We can't have it. Look look look. I'm sorry if my actions cross the line but in a match like that
00:27:53no one can stop me. If it wasn't for Seth Rollins I'd be the last monster standing. So when are you
00:28:00gonna make the match? So we're just cutting right to the chase. Look I'm not even thinking about
00:28:04that until you and I are on the same page. Look everything I've done. All the destruction I've
00:28:11caused. Every single tsunami I hit on Seth Rollins and everyone else was all to get me to the main
00:28:17event. Isn't that the sort of ambition you want from your superstars? Of course. So make the match.
00:28:25There'll be no trouble. Because I just want the spotlight. I want the one-on-one match with Seth
00:28:31so I can show you that I am a top guy in WWE. So it's that simple. Give you the match and there'll
00:28:38be no trouble. No trouble. Yeah and you're a man of your word now. Look if you and I are on the
00:28:44same page and I hope we are then I will talk to Seth. Okay. You're a smarter businessman than I
00:28:53thought you were Adam Pearce. Oh imagine that. Talk soon. Don't keep me waiting too long.
00:29:05Remember it was Reed's reaction to Pearce that started the wave of tsunami pilots back at August.
00:29:10Here's hoping this next road of Ross's career comes with sturdier guardrails. But right now
00:29:15it's the start of the World Tag Team Championship number one contenders tourney. The following is a
00:29:21World Tag Team Championship number one contenders tournament first round match. Introducing first
00:29:30accompanied by Maxine Dupuis, Akira Candela and Otis Alpha Academy. And I'll tell you this Joe how
00:29:42much would it rankle the former mentor of this group Chad Gable if the Alpha Academy could run
00:29:49through this entire number one contenders tournament and end up grabbing gold. Wait I
00:29:55wonder who they're even facing in this tournament. Keep in mind Adam Pearce just threw the thing
00:29:59together. It's a very deep division but styles and matchups could determine the fate of Alpha
00:30:06Academy to take a step towards the titles. But who will it be against we find out next today.
00:30:13Alpha Academy number one contenders tournament. The question is who will they be facing.
00:30:29Eric and Ivar? Wait are they back?
00:30:35We have not seen them together in action in quite some time.
00:30:43Let me warn you Joe. Raw is raw. Former NXT tag champs. Former Raw tag champs.
00:30:54They've been partners since 2014.
00:30:59And their opponents Ivar and Eric the War Raiders.
00:31:07Back to competing under the name War Raiders and they are so capable of being an instant
00:31:16impact team in this division and right away getting into the mix. Number one contenders tournament.
00:31:25It's been over 12 months since we saw the War Raiders entire competition have to spend a little
00:31:31time out recovering and retooling but now they are back there as a stripped down version of
00:31:38themselves more savage and barbaric than ever. Ivar is able to take down Ivar.
00:31:45Remember the War Raiders former WWE tag champions.
00:31:51Sheer dominance on the continents of Asia, Europe and the United States.
00:31:58We're going to wreak havoc once again.
00:32:01Cazares was slammed down and would you look at this?
00:32:07Strip back the face paint. Strip back the fur and this is what you're left with.
00:32:14Unmatched barbarity from two terrifying powerful individuals. Big knee from Ivar and then another
00:32:23another from Eric. Three thousand year old fighting style perfected by these two behemoths.
00:32:31First match since September 15th of 2023 when they fought on SmackDown.
00:32:41Must have been a tough stretch for Tozawa. Tozawa might have just got a broken jaw.
00:32:47They hooked the leg and fortunately for Alpha Academy Otis comes in to save things and now Otis
00:32:56looking to create his own momentum. The most disgusting move in sports entertainment.
00:33:04But the caterpillar interrupted. Thank you Ivar.
00:33:08Keep an eye on Tozawa. Missile drop kick from Tozawa Wade.
00:33:13A man who simply has no fear in his soul but maybe he should be.
00:33:22The Alpha Academy are getting decimated in there.
00:33:27And a big knee comes in from Eric. Well Eric could just pin Tozawa right there.
00:33:32There's nothing left in the mat. You can see the concern on the face of Maxine.
00:33:37The concern on the face of everyone in this arena. Tozawa just got rattled.
00:33:45Ivar from the top rope and the win. And the War Raiders are back.
00:33:54Here are your winners the War Raiders. The former Raw tag team champs. The former
00:34:03NXT tag team champs as they take a step forward. Number one contenders tournament.
00:34:10Well just when it looked like the caterpillar was going to take control out of nowhere this
00:34:18new move from the War Raiders. They call that the fallout. And it's about as
00:34:24devastating as can be as they scrape Tozawa off the mat.
00:34:29The War Raiders progress in the number one contenders tournament.
00:34:40Hey man thanks for the time.
00:34:44I saw you talk to Bronson. I did.
00:34:47We get the match made what's the deal? Look he wants the match just like you do.
00:34:50But I'll be honest I'm apprehensive. And here's why. You've had six matches this year.
00:34:54And you haven't been healthy for any of them. WrestleMania money in the bank.
00:34:57Reed's the one that puts you on the shelf. I see where this is going but you know injuries
00:35:01happen man. Yeah but there's injuries and then there's injuries. You know what I'm talking about.
00:35:07Look when you sign up to get into this business you know injuries are part of the game. I know.
00:35:14Come on. And you fight through those injuries every single time to get to the top. Right.
00:35:21To run the jungle where I'm at right now. That's what you do. And you know when you get to that
00:35:27point young guys upstarts like Bronson Reed they're gonna come in they're gonna try to make
00:35:32a name off your name. You did it. I sure as hell did it. Now Bronson Reed is doing it.
00:35:38If I'm gonna be honest with you Pearson listen to me. There's a reason I run this place. Reason
00:35:46I'm at the top of the food chain. Bronson's forgotten that. I think you've forgotten it too.
00:35:51Come on now. So let me remind you. I've slayed beasts. Conquered kings. And you know what sounds
00:35:57nice? Hunting a monster. I need this fight. I need people like Bronson Reed to bring out the
00:36:08best in me. That's how I stay sharp. That's what keeps me on top. I want this fight because he
00:36:16tried to put me on the shelf for good. Tried to ruin my life. That's what I'm worried about. But
00:36:19I need this fight if you want the best version of Seth Rollins for your show. So think about it.
00:36:33There's a lot for Adam Pearce to clearly think about. We all want the best version of Seth
00:36:37Rollins. What decision will he make? Hey no decision be made here. Just stick around and
00:36:43enjoy. It's the undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes joins us live next.
00:37:13The undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes closing in on one of the most unique challenges of his career.
00:37:43Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the undisputed WWE champion, the American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes!
00:38:02We are closing in on what we will see on November 2nd at Riyadh season. Crown Jewel, the first
00:38:09annual Crown Jewel Championship. The best versus the best. Cody Rhodes against the world heavyweight
00:38:16champion, Guthrie. We are living in dream world. What a matchup for the ages.
00:38:28The American Nightmare will be taking on the Ring General. The ultimate showdown.
00:38:39Every inch, the consummate professional is heading our way.
00:38:56Take the lads. You're the man.
00:39:08All class of man is he gonna have to be that
00:39:12when he steps in with his opponent at Crown Jewel, the mighty Ring General.
00:39:25Cody! Cody! Cody!
00:39:40We got a lot of folks in here tonight. Let's say hello to our friends up there.
00:39:44Our friends up there. Let's say hello to our friends down here.
00:39:48What's the whole to know where you're going? You have to know where you have been.
00:40:01As much as I like to have my eyes on the future, I do consider myself a wrestling and sports
00:40:06entertainment traditionalist, which means I am immensely proud to be standing in a city that has
00:40:14such rich history, such rich roots in the world of professional wrestling.
00:40:27Whether it was Sam Mushnick, the Kiel Auditorium, wrestling at the chase
00:40:31are every single one of you here tonight for Monday Night Raw.
00:40:44There's been some more recent history, though.
00:40:51Something very, uh, something very special happened in this very building not too long ago.
00:40:59Something that genuinely changed my life for the better.
00:41:11We want Cody! We want Cody! We want Cody!
00:41:23You are indeed right. It was right here in St. Louis, the first time we heard, we want Cody.
00:41:32And I'm sure somebody will call me a politician for doing so, but there's nothing political about
00:41:46what I'm going to do next. It's quite simple. Thank you all very, very, very, very, very much.
00:41:54With that in mind, so St. Louis, Missouri.
00:42:07What do you want to talk about?
00:42:24Well, how about the fact that this guy's going to be his opponent on November 2nd?
00:42:29That's something to talk about.
00:42:31Talk about the fact that Raw is Gunther's show.
00:42:37If you want to talk about anything on Gunther's show, you run it by Gunther first.
00:42:45A week removed from his title defense against Sami Zayn.
00:42:50He won by submission, second defense of his World Heavyweight Championship.
00:42:57As he shows off the well-earned gold.
00:43:09Ladies and gentlemen, the American nightmare, Cody Rhodes.
00:43:29You know, Cody, usually I would come out here and dress my opponent down a little bit and speak a
00:43:35little bit about the uncomfortable truth, but I got to be honest, there's not much negative to say about you.
00:43:46Because in fact, this company, this business, this sport,
00:43:52is in a boom period like never before, and it's all built on your back.
00:44:01You make every town, you make every country, you make every continent.
00:44:08You truly are the quarterback of this operation.
00:44:12Thank you, Cody!
00:44:17Thank you, Cody!
00:44:19Thank you, Cody!
00:44:21Thank you, Cody!
00:44:23Thank you, Cody!
00:44:25Thank you, Cody!
00:44:27So, Cody, there's not many people in this company I respect, but full honesty, I have a lot of respect for you.
00:44:35Ah, if I think about it, there might be one thing.
00:44:43You just love to be everybody's darling, don't you?
00:44:49See, the thing is, because of that, you're in that mess with your old friend Kevin.
00:44:57Because he realizes everybody's friend is no one's real friend.
00:45:03So I expect you to sort out your emotional mess, because in Saudi Arabia, I expect the best version of Cody Rhodes.
00:45:18So, what you think is my greatest weakness, I would say is probably my greatest strength.
00:45:28Certainly, and not surrounded by friends, I'm sure you've seen what's been happening on every show.
00:45:36But if I could make an observation, one champion to another.
00:45:42I've seen what happens when the ring general throws everything in his arsenal at his opponents, and they keep coming back.
00:45:54What happens is you get uncomfortable.
00:45:58What happens is I have seen it firsthand.
00:46:02I saw it at WrestleMania.
00:46:04You break.
00:46:10I could return a great many of the things that you said about me being a champion.
00:46:16Workhorse, absolute and utter immense respect I have for you.
00:46:21But you need to know, you think you are swimming in the deep waters, but your feet are still touching the bottom of the pool.
00:46:28You have never been in the ring one-on-one with me.
00:46:40It's a very fair assessment, Cody.
00:46:43Spoken like a true secondary champion.
00:46:52There it is, that dig.
00:46:56I was expecting that, and I should have been.
00:46:59This is indeed your house now.
00:47:02Gosh, you really have become frightening.
00:47:06You've become a frightening beast.
00:47:09What you call me, a secondary champion?
00:47:12Let us not forget, I defeated the most dominating champion in company history.
00:47:28And Gunther, I have already slain a frightening beast.
00:47:43Yes, sir.
00:47:51Yes, sir.
00:47:53Good luck to me, the champion.
00:48:01Did he just say good luck to me, the champion?
00:48:04Yes, he did.
00:48:05I like how he says there won't be uncomfortable truths, and then he goes down the path of uncomfortable truths with you.
00:48:10The mind games have already started.
00:48:13Two alpha males have seen themselves as being number one.
00:48:19What a match this is going to be to determine the first ever crown jewel champion,
00:48:24and it comes your way on November 2nd of Riyadh season.
00:48:28The crown jewel championship belt, by the way, 50-carat diamond belt,
00:48:33as Cody Rose and Gunther go head-to-head.
00:48:36The two absolute best on the planet.
00:48:39Someone is 1A, someone is 1B.
00:48:42Which is which? We find out at Crown Jewel.
00:48:45Now, let's focus on the ongoing drama with The New Day.
00:48:50Specifically, what we saw last Monday with Jay Uso's title defense against Xavier Woods.
00:48:57It was a spirited effort by Woods that came up short.
00:49:02Kofi said, hey, good match, great effort, shake the man's hand.
00:49:07Cold shoulder comes Jay Uso's way from Xavier Woods.
00:49:12Meanwhile, Jay was celebrating his title defense when all of a sudden,
00:49:17the badass returns.
00:49:20Ron Breaker with a spear.
00:49:22Kofi goes to help. Woods begrudgingly waits.
00:49:26And a spear on Kofi.
00:49:28Then on the outside, the super spear on Woods.
00:49:32What are you doing with us?
00:49:34Do you understand that if the shoe was on the other foot,
00:49:37and you were out there getting beat up,
00:49:39that Jay would be one of the first ones to come out and help you?
00:49:41Yeah, but I also remember you saying that I was the QB.
00:49:45I call the play and you run it.
00:49:47But that just hasn't been happening so far, has it?
00:49:52It's The New Day. Yes, it is.
00:49:54So you get a sense of the ongoing tension
00:49:57between Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston.
00:50:00Kofi Kingston, who now comes out for this challenge.
00:50:04The former WWE Champion taking on the fiery, angry,
00:50:10recent Intercontinental Champion.
00:50:12The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:50:15Introducing first, representing The New Day,
00:50:19from Ghana, West Africa, weighing in at 212 pounds,
00:50:24Kofi Kingston!
00:50:27There have been some turbulent times for The New Day,
00:50:30and Kofi Kingston of late, it's not getting any easier.
00:50:33He goes one-on-one with the explosive Brom Breaker next.
00:50:42The last year has been one of the most exciting
00:50:45and fulfilling times of my life.
00:50:48Not just coming to WWE, but becoming a champion
00:50:53and having the honour of joining the legendary LWO.
00:51:01It hasn't all been easy, but with every setback,
00:51:06I've become stronger, wiser and better than before.
00:51:12I remember that I am capable of exceeding
00:51:16my greatest expectation.
00:51:18That my heroes look at me as their equal.
00:51:23That I belong.
00:51:25Not even the sky is my limit.
00:51:28Dragon Lee was destined to fly.
00:51:34Fly.
00:51:45Just awesome, the exhilarating, all-action, high-flying
00:51:48Dragon Lee, a young, fast-rising competitor,
00:51:51born into the business, clearly destined for greatness.
00:51:54Of course, Kofi Kingston has experienced greatness
00:51:56in his career. He's been to the top.
00:51:59And now, while his New Day partner, Xavier Woods,
00:52:02has expressed growing frustration,
00:52:04Kofi faces this growing concern.
00:52:07Batman.
00:52:22And his opponent, from Atlanta, Georgia,
00:52:25weighing in at 250 pounds,
00:52:29Nigel Ryan.
00:52:37This is 250 pounds of Jelek Knight with a naturally
00:52:43bad attitude that has got even worse since losing
00:52:47the Intercontinental Championship to Jey Uso
00:52:51several weeks ago. The man has been on a tear
00:52:54last week targeting Jey Uso with his collateral
00:52:57collateral damage. Catching Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods in the process. Now Xavier Woods is
00:53:04not out here tonight. Kofi Kingston has decided he wants to go it alone. There has been some issues
00:53:10of course within the New Day but now it's a pure one-on-one contest. And what am I supposed to read
00:53:16into that? Perhaps that trust is starting to fray within the New Day. Understandably they're not on
00:53:22the same page and Kofi cannot afford to have his eye on anything other than Bron Breaker. Came right
00:53:29out and pressed the action against Bron Breaker. He's got no choice because if you give Bron Breaker
00:53:35an inch he takes a mile just like we saw. Back on September 23rd when Jey Uso was able to defeat
00:53:43Bron Breaker in an instant classic. When Jey finally broke through for singles glory becoming
00:53:48the Intercontinental Champion. Bron Breaker is just as confrontational as they come. He's an
00:53:56intimidator and he has all the physical tools to back it up. He's been on a streak of pure success
00:54:03for the past three plus years since falling under the WWE umbrella and NXT and then once he turned
00:54:11up here on Raw. Bron Breaker is not a man who accepts any form of roadblock on his path to the
00:54:22very top. Hear him talking to the crowd with dogs and barking. Just that force of going into that
00:54:32turnbuckle. Bron Breaker fears nothing. He would fight this entire arena if they dare. Especially
00:54:39the version we've seen over the course of the past week. He's looking to break everyone in his path
00:54:45and Kofi Kingston with all the goodwill and intent that he came out here with.
00:54:52That athleticism and twitchy athleticism of Kofi Kingston coming to his aid. Kingston's won it all
00:54:59here in WWE over the past 15 or so years. I promise you he's never met anything quite like Bron Breaker.
00:55:07A special mix of dynamic power and speed. The badass in control.
00:55:17Joe and Wade with you here. Kofi Kingston and Bron Breaker. The badass has been in control
00:55:22against Kofi Kingston. Of course his first match since coming off the loss of the
00:55:26Intercontinental Championship to Jey Uso back on September 23rd.
00:55:30Terrifying levels of physicality from Bron Breaker over the past several minutes.
00:55:39Brutalizing the entire body of Kofi Kingston. And this might be goodnight.
00:55:48Able to get out of the way was Kofi. It was a mad scramble. It was about the only thing that
00:55:54could possibly keep Kofi Kingston in this match. And Breaker in the process may have badly injured
00:56:01that shoulder. Yeah that right shoulder went right into the post. Of course he comes with
00:56:05such speed and velocity. May well be his own worst enemy. Got himself some real damage and
00:56:11it's up to Kingston the veteran to try and capitalize on that wily attack. Can he do that?
00:56:17Bron Breaker tries to take control for a moment. Kofi springboard cross body right into the cover.
00:56:30And that is the kind of movement that Kofi needs despite the beatdown he's taken so far
00:56:35in this matchup. It confuses Breaker. Keep Breaker guessing. Breaker only has one speed.
00:56:42Boom drop Kofi Kingston. And Kingston has Breaker completely outboxed at this point.
00:56:51The kind of movement Breaker simply isn't used to. He's 100 miles an hour straight forward.
00:56:57Deviate from that you get in problems. Looking for trouble in paradise. Instead finding Bron Breaker.
00:57:04Bron Breaker tossing the body of Kofi Kingston around. But those
00:57:10satellite reflexes of Kingston. And a kick out by Breaker. Managing to land on his feet and now
00:57:17it's Bron Breaker who may be in trouble. Just classic Kofi Kingston. The SOS.
00:57:26Just milliseconds away from a shock victory here. But Kofi really has done it all. He stopped the
00:57:33test of time. Can he stand the test of Bron Breaker who keeps bouncing back.
00:57:51Kofi Kingston clearly hurting all over but going skyward.
00:57:56Yeah finding his way to the top rope. Double axe handle. But no. The badass.
00:58:02Belly to belly and look at how far he tossed him. Technique. Power. Explosive nature and a
00:58:09mean streak a mile wide. Super spear opportunity. Bron Breaker delivers.
00:58:16Just cutting Kofi Kingston into it. And with that the win.
00:58:26Here is your winner. Bron Breaker.
00:58:34The little window into what Bron Breaker is all about and what his rise to the top
00:58:40has been so so rapid. We'll continue unabated while we keep putting away top names like
00:58:48Kofi Kingston with a devastated spear straight to the midsection. Another W as Bron Breaker looks
00:58:57to regather gold here on Raw. Last time we saw him landing the super spears was following the
00:59:05intercontinental championship. And Xavier Woods comes in.
00:59:14So that's when he shows up when Kofi Kingston found himself in trouble after the match. Well
00:59:20that's a true friend in my book by himself. Absolutely. Getting in between Breaker as he
00:59:25was looking to destroy a beaten Kofi Kingston. Xavier Woods does the right thing. Oh and then
00:59:34he comes and attacks him from behind. Clothesline look more like a jawbreaker type movement.
00:59:43There's company and it's the current intercontinental champion. Well it's the
00:59:47man who was jumped by Bron Breaker on Raw last week. Now time for a little revenge. Super kick.
00:59:55Here I go.
00:59:59And a spear of his own. Jey Uso sending a message back to Bron Breaker. Taste of your own medicine
01:00:10but let's face it Joe these two may well be on a collision course. A rematch at some point for
01:00:16that intercontinental championship. The man did Kofi Kingston need his friends this evening.
01:00:24A statement yeet as Breaker
01:00:37knocked from the apron. New day in Jey Uso out to defend each other.
01:00:54So you look ready. Yeah. All right you want me out there tonight? Nah it's all good. I got this.
01:01:01It's Tiffy's time to stand on the ring apron and look pretty okay. But have you taken any
01:01:07more thought into what we talked about? Yeah I thought about it. Look you've already destroyed
01:01:16all the boys multiple times and you finally got your revenge on Kimballa.
01:01:22It's time that you get back what you were robbed of. That's fair. Look as long as you have a beef
01:01:30with the judgment day I have beef with the judgment day. So if you need me just tell me
01:01:35and I'm there. You know this. I appreciate it. But you're right. I think it's time for Damian Priest
01:01:42to once again be El Campeon. There we go. All right.
01:01:55I'll go handle these girls.
01:02:11People over there what's up?
01:02:34One of the most beloved competitors in WWE. R-Truth who won the tag titles at Wrestlemania
01:02:41in a ladder match with The Miz now finds himself opposite his former partner. R-Truth
01:02:48against The Miz when we return.
01:02:54Haven't even thought.
01:03:10Got a second.
01:03:14So clearly still feeling the sting of betrayal from his brother and it was back here on Raw on
01:03:20September 30th Wade when R-Truth felt the same from The Miz. His former tag partner in The Awesome
01:03:27Truth. Here's the thing with R-Truth. I don't think he quite realizes that attack was intentional.
01:03:32R-Truth is still wearing an Awesome Truth suit.
01:03:38He thinks it was a case of mistaken identity.
01:03:44The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Making his way to the ring.
01:03:48Residing in Hollywood, California. Weighing in at 221 pounds. The Miz.
01:03:56Well it's all fun and games with R-Truth isn't it? Until now.
01:04:04It's all fun and games with R-Truth isn't it? Until it's no longer fun and games and it seems like
01:04:11the annoyance, the irritation was just building up for months inside The Miz and with a certain
01:04:17little whisper from some members of the locker room it poisoned the mind of The Miz. The Miz
01:04:24finally snapped and The Awesome Truth is over. Someone please explain that to R-Truth.
01:04:30Well it was Karrion Kross who approached The Miz, planted a seed in his head and then a week later
01:04:36he betrayed R-Truth. It seems like the mind of The Miz was fertile ground for that seed. It really
01:04:44didn't take too much persuading for him to drop his former tag partner R-Truth. But consider the
01:04:50great times they have this year. For 79 days they have four successful defenses of the world tag
01:04:56team championships. R-Truth thinks they're still bros, they're not friends. What's the matter with you Truth?
01:05:03You got junk. The Miz is looking at him like what do you not understand? Do you not recall what I did to you?
01:05:09But he extends a hand. Truth thinks they're still boys. The Miz says come on let's do this.
01:05:18They have a hell of a history together. They've won championships together over
01:05:2210 plus years. But R-Truth clearly is done with R-Truth. Miz is clearly done with R-Truth.
01:05:30I just mentioned him. Karrion Kross. Final testament. Oh and R-Truth uses that to roll him up and gets the win.
01:05:40R-Truth veteran move. Who is your winner? R-Truth!
01:05:47A costly moment. And he's celebrating with Miz. He went to hug. He still doesn't get it weighed.
01:05:55I mean he's just happy he scored the victory as he should be. It's the easiest win of his
01:05:59entire career. But it was really an inadvertent assist perhaps from the final testament. Get him right now.
01:06:08Authors of pain are on top of R-Truth and they're throwing him back in the ring.
01:06:14Well this is the crew that poisoned the mind of the Miz. And there is your skull crushing finale.
01:06:23And look at that look Wade. After being rolled up and taking a loss to his former partner when
01:06:29he was distracted. And that is how it'll be written in the next chapter of Awesome Truth.
01:06:37Karrion Kross just has a knack of amplifying the most destructive thoughts of anyone.
01:06:59Yeah this is it.
01:07:08Please. Just hear me out. I said no.
01:07:15And get out my face man.
01:07:27The Usos twin brothers former eight-time tag team champions. And now Jay can barely stand a sight of
01:07:33Jimmy. You juxtapose that now against Rhea Ripley who tonight has a tag team partner she could have never envisioned or perhaps even wanted.
01:07:44Very unlikely partnership for Rhea Ripley. Tonight having to team with a woman who she threatened to bury through the mat earlier on this evening.
01:07:57But anyway she can get her hands on Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez. You're right Joe Ripley's going to take it.
01:08:08The following is a tag team match scheduled for one fall.
01:08:12Introducing first from Adelaide South Australia, Rhea Ripley!
01:08:23Strange circumstances to arrive to this but it should be a wild one. Missed Money in the Bank teaming up with Rhea Ripley against Raquel and Liv next on Monday Night Raw.
01:08:40Next Monday night in Philadelphia. Look at this. It is the rematch for the Intercontinental Championship.
01:08:54Jey Uso looks to defend against the former champ he dethroned, The Badass, Ron Ripley.
01:09:01And not only that, the World Tag Team Championship number one contenders tournament continues. Two first round matches, The New Day go head to head with the massive Authors of Pain.
01:09:13And then Rey Mysterio and Dragon Lee Linkov, they go head to head with American Made. That's next week on Raw.
01:09:22Rhea Ripley recently was in against Liv Morgan and bad was she won by disqualification, of course no title change there.
01:09:32And now you can see that intense focus as she is ready for tag team action. The strangest of bedfellows right?
01:09:40The anger inside Ripley just continues to rise and I'm not sure tagging up with Tiffy Stratton is going to help it.
01:09:50And her tag team partner from Pryor Lake, Minnesota, she is the winner of the 2024 Women's Money in the Bank contract, Tiffany Stratton.
01:10:07Next week Monday Night Raw is going to be in Philadelphia, the Intercontinental Championship. Jey Uso, Rawbreaker, headlining Raw from Philly.
01:10:15Tickets available, we'll see you there.
01:10:19Tiffy time, her first match on Raw in her WWE career for Tiffany Stratton.
01:10:26Well I'll tell you this Joe, this is what you call a chalk and cheese pairing.
01:10:30Two human beings who could not be more dissimilar other than the fact that they are A plus once that bell rings.
01:10:38But look they're forgiving each other as well.
01:10:41And then there are these two, Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan, the former Women's Tag Team Champions.
01:10:49And their opponent, the team of Raquel Rodriguez and the Women's World Champion, Liv Morgan!
01:11:02The team of Raquel Rodriguez and the Women's World Champion, Liv Morgan!
01:11:12A reminder coming your way on November 2nd at Riyadh season, it is Crown Jewel and it will be the first annual Crown Jewel Championship.
01:11:22The men's champions colliding, the women's champions colliding.
01:11:26For the 50 carat diamond belt, best of the best, Liv Morgan, Nia Jax, Saturday November 2nd.
01:11:36A stunning piece of hardware on the planet up for grabs combined with of course the ultimate in bragging rights.
01:11:47How smart is Liv Morgan? You need to contend with Rhea Bloody Ripley.
01:11:52Who do you draft in? Raquel Rodriguez, perhaps the one woman bigger and stronger than Rhea Bloody Ripley.
01:12:01Rhea Ripley just smashing that head right against Liv Morgan and then throwing her down violently.
01:12:06I'm surprised Liv Morgan chose to start off this match. That would personally allow Raquel Rodriguez to take care of business.
01:12:16Liv tries to crawl to her for the tag weight.
01:12:18You know how irate Rhea Bloody Ripley is right now.
01:12:23Liv able to get free and here comes Raquel.
01:12:33There's some real history between these two women.
01:12:38You want to come in and watch this yourself?
01:12:43Matchup of size and power and strength.
01:12:49Former friends, former training partners and wait a second, just when Rhea Ripley was ready to lock horns.
01:12:56Tiffany Stratus says, let me take this from here.
01:13:03Tiffany's had of course a great gymnastics background.
01:13:06They're the Team USA member alongside Simone Biles.
01:13:12Raquel Rodriguez can be as big and strong as she wants.
01:13:16She's got to get a hold of Tiffany first.
01:13:20Can't find the target.
01:13:24Rhea on the outside with Raquel.
01:13:27And look at Tiffany, the discord between these two.
01:13:31A team that was just thrown together, arguing over who's legal and who gets in for the action.
01:13:41Meanwhile, human missile Liv Morgan from Raquel laughing right in her faces.
01:13:57Raquel Rodriguez, Liv Morgan teaming up against Rhea Ripley and Tiffany time.
01:14:02Tiffany Stratton.
01:14:04Liv Morgan in control now, hooks the leg of Tiffany Stratton.
01:14:10Well, perhaps predictably this hastily thrown together tag team of Tiffany Stratton and Rhea Bloody Ripley has fallen apart at the seams very early on.
01:14:21No cohesion, no strategy, no chemistry.
01:14:26And you've got to contend with the former women's tag champs of Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan.
01:14:32That's a good point, Wade. So much time spent as tag partners through the years.
01:14:36And you see they haven't missed a beat.
01:14:38Hitting right back up from where they left off.
01:14:40Knowing each other's skill set and ability and that's getting the best of Tiffany Stratton right now.
01:14:46And also you see the sheer pure power of Raquel.
01:14:49Total control, the vertical suplex.
01:14:52Raquel and Liv doing damage.
01:14:54Toying with Tiffany Stratton.
01:14:56Hooks the leg for the win.
01:14:58And Tiffany time able to kick out.
01:15:02The center of the universe must feel like it's imploding in this match.
01:15:06Nothing is going the way of the buff Barbie doll.
01:15:12Gingerly reaching out, trying to get a tag to Rhea Ripley.
01:15:17Who perhaps is enjoying catching this beat down of Tiffany Stratton.
01:15:21Almost as much as she would enjoy getting her hands on Raquel Rodriguez.
01:15:29A backbreaker as Rodriguez enjoying this and stretching out Tiffany Stratton as well.
01:15:36Stratton is as limber as they come.
01:15:38But even her frame is getting pushed to its limits by this powerful form.
01:15:44That is Raquel Rodriguez.
01:15:46All that leverage from Rodriguez.
01:15:57And that uppercut as Tiffany's been absorbing so much punishment.
01:16:05The cover.
01:16:07Stratton has spent 90% of this matchup getting stomped in that ring.
01:16:13Raquel making it look effortless.
01:16:17Scrambling for that tag and I'd say Rhea Ripley...
01:16:20It was a lackluster effort wasn't it?
01:16:21...may not try particularly hard to get Tiffany Stratton out of danger here.
01:16:27And now she gets the tag on Rhea Ripley.
01:16:30Alright, fun and games are over.
01:16:32And now this is a huge problem for Liv Morgan.
01:16:36Long standing rivals.
01:16:38Big clothesline from Rhea.
01:16:41And a dropkick that sends Raquel flying.
01:16:44And finally a little taste of vengeance for Rhea Ripley.
01:16:49Fighting walls on two fronts here.
01:16:50It might be a little too much.
01:16:53Who am I kidding?
01:16:55Nothing is too much for the eradicator.
01:17:00That knee hit hard.
01:17:04She wants the riptide.
01:17:07Exactly what she gets.
01:17:09Stacks her.
01:17:11And Raquel comes in to save it.
01:17:15Maximum damage to the frame of Rhea Ripley.
01:17:19Rhea simply too wise to it.
01:17:21Those two former training partners, former friends imploded during their time in NXT.
01:17:27And they need no excuse whatsoever to throw hands.
01:17:32Tiffany Stratton going for the world's greatest moonsault.
01:17:35Missing.
01:17:37Meanwhile, Rhea Ripley.
01:17:41Nia Jax from out of nowhere.
01:17:45Nia Jax comes running down.
01:17:48As Tiffany Stratton was up top looking for the prettiest moonsault ever.
01:17:52Meanwhile, Rhea Ripley was looking for a riptide.
01:17:55The next thing you know, Nia Jax comes from out of nowhere.
01:18:00Well, Nia Jax who certainly is not supposed to be here.
01:18:03Look at the right shoulder.
01:18:04Look at this from Ripley.
01:18:07And Liv Morgan takes out her leg.
01:18:15And just beating down now on Rhea Ripley.
01:18:19Just when Ripley was about to pull off the unthinkable.
01:18:23Now Nia Jax turns her attention on Liv Morgan.
01:18:28The woman she will be facing at Crown Jewel.
01:18:34November 2nd.
01:18:36These two women will go after it in the first annual Crown Jewel Championship.
01:18:43Oh God.
01:18:44It's squashing time.
01:18:47Annihilator.
01:18:55And now if you are Miss Money in the Bank.
01:18:58What a golden opportunity.
01:19:00Could this be a cashing?
01:19:03Of the first opportunity here on Raw.
01:19:09With the briefcase in hand.
01:19:12Dirty Dog.
01:19:14Comes in the saber.
01:19:16Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
01:19:21Just in the nick of time.
01:19:24Tiffany Stratton was moments away from possibly becoming the world champion.
01:19:29But Dirty Dog won't live away.
01:19:35It's not doggy time.
01:19:37It's Tiffany time.
