00:00:00Then.
00:00:06Now.
00:00:12Forever.
00:00:21Together.
00:00:30Two weeks from tomorrow, four champions will converge and compete in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
00:00:36Jax, Morgan, Rhodes, Gunther, at stake, global recognition as the best of the best
00:00:43and the prestige of becoming the first ever WWE Crown Jewel Champion.
00:00:49Meanwhile, tonight in Colombia, for former undisputed WWE Champion Roman Reigns,
00:00:54his quest back to the head of the table is looking less and less likely.
00:00:58As last week, Reigns once again found himself at the mercy of the new bloodline
00:01:04and still achieved without a try.
00:01:11Tonight we're going to change things up a little bit.
00:01:15Join me and acknowledge Big Jim!
00:01:24Oh my goodness!
00:01:26Jimmy's back!
00:01:30I'm the Tribal Chief and that means that tape was mine.
00:01:34That's exactly what we've done. We took what was ours.
00:01:38We had it all. We ran around here and everybody feared us.
00:01:43When we step foot in this ring, I want you to know that we are the ones.
00:01:51Yeah, but we're not though.
00:01:54I stand here in the middle of this ring and I see a chief with no tribe right now.
00:01:59I see you with no ulufala around your neck.
00:02:04Man, I came back because you needed me.
00:02:07You needed help.
00:02:09Yo, we need help.
00:02:18No need.
00:02:21You'll forever be my Tribal Chief, man.
00:02:24But I am the only one in the family that still acknowledges you.
00:02:29The bloodline acknowledges Solo Sokoa.
00:02:33He's the man who had his own brother attacked and kicked out of the bloodline.
00:02:37Jimmy Uso seeks revenge.
00:02:40Solo Sokoa said that Jimmy will acknowledge him.
00:02:44Here comes Tama Taga.
00:02:46And now on the other side, Jacob Batu!
00:02:50The moment spiked by Solo!
00:02:55And now the bloodline assaulting Jimmy Uso.
00:03:01Roman Reigns on his way to the ring!
00:03:04Roman returning a favor from bad blood coming to the aid.
00:03:11And now Solo and Roman going at it!
00:03:15And again, the bloodline's strength it numbers.
00:03:21Terrifying athleticism from the Samoan werewolf.
00:03:28Samoan spike to Reigns!
00:03:46Got a second?
00:03:50Yeah.
00:03:59Please, just hear me out real quick.
00:04:01I said no!
00:04:04Get out of my face, man.
00:04:21And tonight, live from Columbia, South Carolina,
00:04:24the new bloodline looks to continue right where they left off last week.
00:04:32Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome
00:04:36Jacob Batu
00:04:38and the WWE Tag Team Champions
00:04:42Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa
00:04:45and Solo Sokoa!
00:04:49The bloodline!
00:05:07Welcome to ringside, everybody. I am still Corey Graves.
00:05:10Michael Cole's off on special assignment tonight,
00:05:12so I'm afraid I've got a little bad news rejoining me in the booth.
00:05:16The band is back together. Mr. Wade Barrett.
00:05:18Juan Esparel, it is great to be back here on SmackDown.
00:05:21Excited to see what the new version of the bloodline have in store for us.
00:05:25Wade, I'm going to ask you a question that Roman Reigns is no doubt asking himself.
00:05:29In your opinion, is there any conceivable way to stop this new outlaw rogue bloodline?
00:05:35Well, last week told its own story.
00:05:38Roman Reigns and Jey Uso, but certainly out of manpower and more scarily,
00:05:44perhaps out of ideas to deal with Solo Sokoa and his troops.
00:05:50I can't imagine there are too many men walking God's green earth
00:05:53who want to stand eye to eye with a Samoan werewolf.
00:06:14Oh.
00:06:30Columbia, South Carolina.
00:06:39Acknowledge me.
00:07:06You all better get used to seeing this because you're looking at the present and the future.
00:07:16You're looking at the bloodline.
00:07:23And you're looking at the tribal chief.
00:07:33You see, I'm the man that created a bigger and stronger family.
00:07:40I'm the man that created a bigger and stronger bloodline.
00:07:49Yeah, I did.
00:07:51And Roman Reigns can't do nothing about it.
00:08:00Jimmy can't do nothing about it either.
00:08:07Oh, and then check this out.
00:08:09And then Jimmy goes to Monday Night Raw and tries to get Jey's help.
00:08:13But Jey don't want nothing to do with it either.
00:08:26No, Jey.
00:08:31These beatdowns will continue to happen to Roman Reigns unless he does one thing.
00:08:43Unless he comes down to the ring by the end of the night and acknowledges me.
00:08:58Uso!
00:09:02Hang on a second, Wade.
00:09:17Colonial life arena just exploded into a sea of yeet.
00:09:23The intercontinental champion, main event Jey Uso, is on SmackDown tonight.
00:09:33Well, as this place explodes, conspicuous by their lack of yeeting,
00:09:38are the four men stunned in that ring, namely Solo Sakoa and his band of men,
00:09:45known as the Bloodline.
00:09:47All the less celebratory from them.
00:09:49I've got to ask you, is this a smart decision for Jey Uso to come here by himself
00:09:55after refusing to give his own brother Jimmy audience at Raw this Monday?
00:09:59I'll tell you, the only way it is smart for Jey Uso
00:10:03to be stepping in a ring with Solo Sakoa at all is if he is prepared
00:10:09to acknowledge Solo Sakoa as his tribal chief.
00:10:13Outside or out, I'd be staying wild clear if I were Jey Uso.
00:10:20Well, what's done last week on SmackDown is Solo Sakoa and his Bloodline dismantled.
00:10:26Solo and Jey's brother Jimmy.
00:10:31But the intercontinental champion is in the house to kick things off.
00:10:43Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, J
00:11:13Uso, Jey Uso,ogether
00:11:18Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, Jey Uso, JEY U Rolex
00:11:26She's made of silver and gold
00:11:29I'm bout to get a move
00:11:33I'm bout' to get a move
00:11:43What's up, little brother?
00:11:53It's been a minute.
00:11:56I promise, I'm not out here to fight you, because at the end of the day, I still care
00:12:07about you.
00:12:08You still my little brother.
00:12:15Look, Jimmy and Roman not here yet, so I came out here to talk to you one-on-one, ooze to ooze.
00:12:25But think about what you're doing.
00:12:35Think about what you're doing to the family.
00:12:40Think about what you're doing to the bloodline.
00:12:48Don't nobody got bigger issues with Roman than I do?
00:12:53With dividing the family like this?
00:12:55It ain't it.
00:12:56I left.
00:12:57I left the family, ooze.
00:12:59I left to be my own man.
00:13:01I left to roll.
00:13:03Man, I became the Intercontinental Champion, little brother.
00:13:07Look, though.
00:13:19Look, though.
00:13:26Yes, I did.
00:13:31Amen.
00:13:33Look, ooze.
00:13:36Fighting over the Ula Fala, though, is not it.
00:13:40That right there is earned, not taken.
00:13:44You know better.
00:13:48But if you want to end Roman's power, then do it.
00:13:54Just don't divide the family while you do it.
00:13:59Are you done wasting my time?
00:14:04You come out here, you yeet, yeet, yeet.
00:14:07Who said anything about dividing the family?
00:14:10I'm not trying to divide the family.
00:14:12I'm trying to unite the family.
00:14:20And stop calling me your little brother.
00:14:24I'm your tribal chief now.
00:14:29And I'll always have a place for you and Roman in my bloodline.
00:14:34But all you have to do is acknowledge me.
00:14:43You see, I don't want you to follow Jimmy's footsteps, because look where I got him.
00:14:50So are you in?
00:14:55Or are you out?
00:15:17Man, look.
00:15:20If what you're saying is true, and you're trying to unite our bloodline,
00:15:29then why did you have to go and get them?
00:15:33Why'd you have to go get them, ooze?
00:15:35Tama, Tonga.
00:15:39Why'd you have to go get Jacob?
00:15:41There's a reason why we stayed away from him.
00:15:44If you keep staring at me like that, I'm going to knock your ass out.
00:16:07Forget that. I'm not here for that, all right?
00:16:09Forget all that.
00:16:12Next time I see you, ooze, it's going to be different.
00:16:19Yeet.
00:16:28Wade, what on earth do you think Jey Uso meant by that?
00:16:32Next time I see you, it's going to be different.
00:16:35Top Dog, things are going very well for Jey Uso, ever since he blazed his own trail,
00:16:42but now tread carefully around little bro, or should I say, the tribal chief, Solo Sekoa,
00:16:49especially when he's backed up by that trail.
00:16:55Solo telling Jey he's looking to unite the family,
00:16:59and there will always be a place in the bloodline for Jey and Roman Reigns.
00:17:11We are just getting started tonight on SmackDown,
00:17:15and coming up next is our first of two triple threat tag team qualifying matchup.
00:17:20Who will earn the right to a championship match?
00:17:23We will have our answer beginning tonight as DIY battles The Street Prophet
00:17:28and Pretty Deadly in a triple threat next.
00:17:36Welcome back to SmackDown. Get ready for triple threat tag team action.
00:17:52The following is a triple threat tag team qualifying match.
00:18:00Introducing the company by B-Fab, Angelo Dawkins, and Montez Ford, The Street Prophet.
00:18:12We are preparing for the first of two triple threat tag team qualifying matches tonight on SmackDown.
00:18:19The second to come later in the evening, the winners of each match will advance
00:18:24and battle one another next week on Friday Night SmackDown
00:18:27for the opportunity to challenge for the WWE tag team titles currently held by,
00:18:33you guessed it, The Bloodline.
00:18:36Be careful what you wish for.
00:18:38This feels like the first step in the journey of a thousand miles
00:18:42if you really are going to win gold here in the tag ranks on SmackDown.
00:18:47Entering now, of course, The Street Prophet already in the ring.
00:18:50D-I-Y-N.
00:18:52Of all the things I've missed, not being on SmackDown.
00:18:56Yes, boys. Pretty Deadly in there.
00:18:59And look at their outfits.
00:19:01A couple of dedicated followers of fashion.
00:19:04They've got poppies on their male bralettes, Corey.
00:19:07Imagine wearing a pair of those in your favorite pub in Pittsburgh.
00:19:10High fashion, even higher impact.
00:19:12Remember, ooh, triple threat tag team rules in effect.
00:19:15And by Montez Ford, one member of each team will be legal at all times.
00:19:20But you must tag your own teammate for them to make entry into this matchup.
00:19:25Montez Ford sent to the apron, met by a knee from Ciampa.
00:19:29Keep your eyes on Pretty Deadly, Wade.
00:19:32I always do, mate. I never take my eyes off.
00:19:38I think that might have been a miscalculation by Elton Prince,
00:19:42who is now hightailing it out of the ring,
00:19:44being run down by the Sicilian Psycho Power.
00:19:48Tim Wilson, expert level tag team trap.
00:19:54That was far from expert level, just sheer brutality.
00:19:59From Angelo Dawkins, keep your eyes peeled at all times, gentlemen.
00:20:04This thing breaking down in a hurry to the surprise of absolutely no one.
00:20:08Here comes Paz.
00:20:10My God, what athleticism.
00:20:13Stop the landing, Drew.
00:20:15Montez Ford setting his sights on Johnny Gargano.
00:20:19Kick connects on the ear of Johnny Wrestling.
00:20:21Here comes Paz. Big knee by Ciampa.
00:20:24Into the cover, hook of the leg to advance.
00:20:27And Ford keeps the Street Profits' chances alive.
00:20:30Oh, man, that was a thousand miles per hour start from all three teams.
00:20:35And Kit Wilson from behind.
00:20:38Such is the nature of triple threat action.
00:20:41Even in the tag division, you simply are not safe.
00:20:44Tag made. Elton Prince now legal for Pretty Deadly.
00:20:47No matter how much you feel like you're in control of this kind of matchup.
00:20:51Three teams that are effectively two wins away for a shot at the gold.
00:20:56Cover. Tremendous tag team innovation by Pretty Deadly.
00:21:02But Ciampa has enough left in the tank to keep this match alive.
00:21:06Let's look at this again.
00:21:07Off of the back of Prince.
00:21:09Into a Codebreaker-type maneuver.
00:21:12Double knees to the face of Ciampa.
00:21:14Straight out of the PD playbook.
00:21:17Dazzling with their poppy-clad outfits.
00:21:20And now battering with their offense.
00:21:23What is your obsession with poppies? That's a British thing, isn't it?
00:21:26Oh, man, the poppy is the symbol of greatness in the UK.
00:21:30Our greatest generations wore cladded poppies.
00:21:33And I know how these two threw out.
00:21:35And what a display.
00:21:36Those four found Pretty Deadly advancing this quarter.
00:21:39Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
00:21:41Shoulder down.
00:21:43Bacchusoto.
00:21:45Oh, my God. Tommaso Ciampa from the middle row.
00:21:49Air raid crash.
00:21:51Montage four with a 450.
00:21:54Two at bats.
00:21:56And Johnny Gargano keeps it alive for DIY.
00:22:00Ciampa going for broke.
00:22:02And it almost backfired.
00:22:04Such is the speed of Montage Four.
00:22:07Remember, triple threat tag team rules are in effect despite the chaos at the moment.
00:22:13Only one member of each respective team can be legal at any given time.
00:22:18Good luck to this referee trying to figure out exactly who is legal at any one point.
00:22:22Beautiful double team by The Prophets.
00:22:25Down goes Ciampa.
00:22:26But Pretty Deadly making their presence felt.
00:22:28Kirk Wilson looking to steal it.
00:22:32DIY will not be denied yet.
00:22:35Just milliseconds away from victory.
00:22:37And now Tommaso Ciampa isolated completely alone in the ring.
00:22:41This could be the moment Pretty Deadly have been waiting for.
00:22:43But keep your eyes on Montage Four.
00:22:46Fast as lightning.
00:22:48Montage Four back to save the day for the Street Prophets.
00:22:52The adrenaline pumping through the veins of Montage Four.
00:22:57Making the long climb to the top.
00:23:00And Prince takes out Tez's legs.
00:23:04Desperation move there from Elton Prince.
00:23:07But it may come good in the end.
00:23:09PD have to go in for the kill.
00:23:11And they have to do it now.
00:23:13Here comes Angelo Dawkins to the aid of Montage.
00:23:16Wilson spills to the floor.
00:23:18This is not where Elton wants to be, Wade.
00:23:22Boom! Dave blockbuster by the Street Prophets.
00:23:25But Ciampa and Gargano meet in the middle.
00:23:28It's anyone's ballgame.
00:23:32Who's legal?
00:23:37DIY!
00:23:41I need to see that fight.
00:23:43Both of Ciampa hit the legal man, okay, here?
00:23:46Montage Four did not.
00:23:48Okay, here? Montage Four did not.
00:23:50Are you winners?
00:23:52DIY!
00:23:55Ladies and gentlemen,
00:23:57the winners of the match
00:23:59are DIY!
00:24:03Well, you heard exactly what Jessica Carr, the referee, just said there.
00:24:07Let's try and break this down here.
00:24:11A great job by Jessica Carr, keeping her eyes on the action during all of this.
00:24:16The legal man there was Kit Wilson.
00:24:18He actually got knocked out of the ring.
00:24:20Now, at this point, Elton Prince is not legal.
00:24:23There has been a tag to Kit Wilson.
00:24:25The Street Prophets clearly got confused at this point,
00:24:28as were everybody else in the arena.
00:24:30But Tommaso Ciampa got his eye on the ball.
00:24:35Well, here's that tag to Kit Wilson,
00:24:37that took Elton Prince out of the equation.
00:24:41Wow!
00:24:43Street Prophets
00:24:45thought they had this 1-1,
00:24:47but it was DIY who kept their eye on the ball,
00:24:49getting the legal man a down match.
00:24:51Well, it certainly won't sit well with the Street Prophets,
00:24:54no doubt about that,
00:24:55but it is undeniable that DIY took that ever-important next step
00:24:59towards hopefully once again becoming tag team champions.
00:25:02Another superstar, Wade, who took the important next step
00:25:05toward potentially earning gold
00:25:07happened last week here on SmackDown in the women's division.
00:25:10Yeah, this, as you say, on SmackDown,
00:25:12Jax versus Naomi.
00:25:14Tiffany Stratton was prevented from intervening
00:25:18by the massive Raquel,
00:25:20and as Jax was looking to close herself in on victory,
00:25:25once again intervening was Raquel,
00:25:29allowing Liv Morgan to smash Nia Jax
00:25:32with the Money in the Bank briefcase,
00:25:34and Naomi picked up a massive W against the champ,
00:25:38much to the degree of Nia Jax.
00:25:42Well, we were scheduled to have a tag team matchup tonight,
00:25:45but we understand there is some news breaking backstage
00:25:48at this very moment regarding this
00:25:50Bayley, Naomi, Nia, Tiffany tag team matchup.
00:25:53We promise we'll do our best to get you the information
00:25:56and get you up to date when we come back.
00:26:04We invite you to join WWE
00:26:06in supporting the American Red Cross
00:26:08in their relief efforts for those impacted
00:26:10by Hurricanes Milton and Helene

00:26:17or visit wwe.me slash Red Cross.
00:26:36I don't think I ever heard that one.
00:26:48That's because it ain't out yet.
00:26:50You know what I'm saying?
00:26:51I do. I do.
00:26:55What is happening?
00:27:06I'm proud of you.
00:27:20We all are.
00:27:28And no you.
00:27:42I told you.
00:27:46Come on.
00:27:54Speak up. I can't hear you.
00:27:56What do you mean you have the flu, Tiffy?
00:27:58Now is not the time to abandon me.
00:28:01Liv Morgan and her greasy boyfriend
00:28:03are trying to get in the way of me
00:28:04becoming the first ever crown jewel champion.
00:28:07And then I have Naomi on my back.
00:28:09And I thought tonight I could teach her a lesson.
00:28:11But now that you have the sniffles,
00:28:13Nick Aldis is going to have to cancel the match.
00:28:15The match isn't canceled.
00:28:18Excuse me?
00:28:19The match, it's not canceled.
00:28:22Shut up, Tiffany.
00:28:24But my partner's sick.
00:28:27Naya, SmackDown has a deep talent roster,
00:28:30so the simple solution here is find somebody else.
00:28:33Who? Who else?
00:28:37Would you look at that.
00:28:40Excuse you.
00:28:41Sorry, Naya, but we couldn't help but overhear
00:28:43that you're in need of a tag partner tonight.
00:28:46And I am the first ever women's speed champion,
00:28:49so champion to champion.
00:28:51I really wouldn't mind helping you out.
00:28:53Two champions, champion to champion.
00:28:55Don't even.
00:28:57Smells like money to me.
00:28:58That's my perfume.
00:28:59Book it.
00:29:00Look at that.
00:29:02It's booked.
00:29:06You better hold up your end of the bargain,
00:29:08or I will end you,
00:29:10and it'll take me less than three minutes.
00:29:19You're welcome.
00:29:22Breaking news.
00:29:23Tiffany Stratton out of tonight's tag team matchup.
00:29:26Candice LeRae, the WWE women's speed champion, is in.
00:29:30That one's still to come tonight.
00:29:32Both grossly unfair and disrespectful from Nichols.
00:29:38The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:29:42Introducing first, accompanied by Chelsea Green.
00:29:49From Ayrshire, Scotland, Piper Niven.
00:29:57With Piper Niven making her way to the ring,
00:29:59accompanied by Chelsea Green,
00:30:02who I understand has remedied the odor issue
00:30:05she has been suffering from.
00:30:06I was nervous.
00:30:07I thought it would smell terrible, but it doesn't.
00:30:09But Piper Niven is looking mean, nudey, and magnificent,
00:30:13and she is up against the bougie bolly from NXT.
00:30:17Lash Legend.
00:30:18These two go head-to-head here on SmackDown.
00:30:20Next.
00:30:30Accompanied by Jakara Jackson,
00:30:33from Atlanta, Georgia,
00:30:35representing Metaphor,
00:30:38Lash Legend.
00:30:43As we prepare for singles action in the women's division,
00:30:46I would not be surprised for there to be some implications
00:30:49in the tag team division,
00:30:51as Lash Legend prepares to go one-on-one with Piper Niven,
00:30:55the WWE Women's Tag Team Champion.
00:30:58Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair
00:31:00with some of the best seats in the house.
00:31:03Obviously, it was last week here on SmackDown
00:31:06where Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson
00:31:08had the opportunity to challenge for those championships.
00:31:11Piper Niven played a role.
00:31:12Chelsea Green played a role.
00:31:14It followed all the way to Monday Night Raw
00:31:16involving damage control in their championship opportunity, Wade.
00:31:19Ultimately, it was Niven and Chelsea Green on the outside
00:31:22who cost Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson their big opportunity,
00:31:26and hence we have this fallout right now.
00:31:28A little standoff.
00:31:29Not too many women have the strength to stand up to Piper Niven,
00:31:33but I assure you Niven will not be bullied
00:31:36by the bougie bolly, Lash Legend.
00:31:39Two of the biggest and baddest women we've ever had here
00:31:42in WWE.
00:31:43Neither woman looking to take a step back.
00:31:48Piper Niven just mowing through the competition.
00:31:52Look out.
00:31:53Legend out of the way just in the nick of time.
00:31:55That was smart from Lash.
00:31:56That basement just body.
00:31:58Oh, big bump kick to the jaw.
00:32:00Chelsea Green knows exactly how that feels.
00:32:02Big splash by Legend into the cover.
00:32:05Last week, it was Lash Legend
00:32:07delivering that exact same kick to Chelsea Green
00:32:10which sent Chelsea spilling over our announce desk,
00:32:13which could be argued opened the door
00:32:15for the champions to retain.
00:32:16The power of Niven on display.
00:32:19These women just dropping bombs from the World Cup.
00:32:22Cover by Piper.
00:32:26Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson, of course,
00:32:28members of Meta 4 who've run roughshod over NXT
00:32:31for quite some time.
00:32:33Keep a very close eye on Chelsea Green
00:32:36and Jakara Jackson on the outside
00:32:39desperately willing their partners to victory here.
00:32:43I'm a happily married man, Wade.
00:32:44That's just getting me in trouble.
00:32:46Nobody home.
00:32:50Big overhand shot by Legend.
00:32:53The technique went out of the window
00:32:55from the off when it came to these two.
00:32:57No way.
00:32:58Throwing everything they have at one another.
00:33:01It looked to me like Lash Legend
00:33:03was going to attempt to chokeslam Piper Niven.
00:33:06We've seen in NXT the power possessed by Legend.
00:33:10This woman is the real deal.
00:33:13Look.
00:33:14That just gave way.
00:33:16She did a lot better than most
00:33:18when it came to lifting up Piper Niven
00:33:20who is now going in for the count.
00:33:22Oh my God.
00:33:23How's this for power?
00:33:25Wow.
00:33:26Big body slam to Niven.
00:33:29Chelsea Green obviously doesn't like what she's seeing.
00:33:33Ms. Green letting her presence be felt again
00:33:36to the surprise of no one.
00:33:38Well, that's the distraction
00:33:39that cost Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson last week.
00:33:42Will it do the same here?
00:33:43Legend took her eyes off of her opponent
00:33:46and that could cost Lash in a big way.
00:33:50Niven making the climb.
00:33:52Bone crushing offense.
00:33:55Legend out of the way.
00:33:59Can Lash Legend
00:34:02topple Piper Niven?
00:34:04Look at this.
00:34:05This is outrageous.
00:34:07Unbelievable.
00:34:09Into the cover.
00:34:10Hooks the leg.
00:34:12Lash Legend with the win.
00:34:16Here is your winner,
00:34:19Lash Legend.
00:34:22Well, that has to be the biggest win of Lash Legend's
00:34:26short career thus far.
00:34:29And even the tag chumps, Belair and Cargill,
00:34:32looked impressed.
00:34:33And this is where it all went into meltdown
00:34:35on the outside of the ring,
00:34:36allowing Piper Niven to capitalize.
00:34:39But just when she thought she had this one in the bag,
00:34:42the athleticism and power of Lash Legend
00:34:45came to the fore, scoring the victory.
00:34:47And I've got to say, Wade,
00:34:48after the official three count,
00:34:50both Belair and Cargill
00:34:52looked extremely impressed
00:34:54by what Lash Legend was able to do moments ago.
00:34:58Is that impressed or is that terrified?
00:35:00Because Lash Legend and Ja'Karli Jackson
00:35:03are coming for those championships.
00:35:05Well, the good news is,
00:35:06the winners here at the WWE Universe,
00:35:08the women's tag division,
00:35:09continues to heat up.
00:35:12And if we are talking championships,
00:35:15how about this?
00:35:16Over 150 carats in diamond weight
00:35:19in each championship.
00:35:21The crown jewel title,
00:35:23one of the combatants,
00:35:24the WWE champion, Cody Rhodes,
00:35:27is here live next.
00:35:33Smackdown comes to you tonight
00:35:34from Colonial Life Arena in Soda City,
00:35:37Columbia, South Carolina,
00:35:39home of the University of South Carolina
00:35:41where our own NXT champ,
00:35:43Trick Williams,
00:35:44shined on the gridiron
00:35:45and where our superstars return to American soil
00:35:48after a wildly successful tour this week
00:35:51in your neck of the woods, Wade, the UK.
00:35:53Yeah, what a party it was over in the UK
00:35:56and what a party we're having here tonight
00:35:58on Smackdown in Columbia, South Carolina.
00:36:01This audience really doing their part
00:36:04with their signs.
00:36:05Every city seemingly trying to outdo The Last
00:36:08with their Amazon sign.
00:36:09My personal view is that Evansville, Indiana,
00:36:11several weeks ago,
00:36:12was the best with the signs.
00:36:14They broke the world record
00:36:15for Wade Barrett signs with one.
00:36:27What are you doing?
00:36:30Sorry.
00:36:31Why are you right there?
00:36:32I'm trying to relax you.
00:36:33It's the wise man spot.
00:36:34I was just trying to relax you.
00:36:35Are you?
00:36:36You're not the wise man.
00:36:38I'm not.
00:36:39But listen,
00:36:40I'm just trying to relax you.
00:36:42I still think
00:36:43you need to talk to brother Jay.
00:36:48I think if the wise man was here,
00:36:50this would be done by now.
00:36:51I'm not talking to Jay.
00:36:52We already saw Jay.
00:36:53He made it clear.
00:36:56It don't matter.
00:36:58Look,
00:37:00I give you a shot.
00:37:02You try.
00:37:04I'm going to do it my way.
00:37:07I'm going to fix this.
00:37:08Tonight.
00:37:12How the hell
00:37:14are you going to do that?
00:37:16I'm going to acknowledge
00:37:20Solo.
00:37:31Did we just hear that correctly, Wade?
00:37:33Roman's going to acknowledge Solo.
00:37:35We'll find out as the night goes on.
00:37:37We'll find out.
00:37:38We'll find out.
00:37:39We'll find out.
00:37:40We'll find out.
00:37:41We'll find out.
00:37:42We'll find out.
00:37:43We'll find out.
00:37:44We'll find out as the night progresses,
00:37:45but this is what it's all about.
00:37:47Two weeks from tomorrow,
00:37:48Crown Jewel Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
00:37:51The beautiful, prestigious
00:37:53WWE Crown Jewel Championship.
00:37:57Over 150 carats in diamond weight
00:38:00on each championship.
00:38:01Absolutely beautiful.
00:38:03Here comes one of the combatants.

00:38:42Roman Reigns!
00:38:43Waiting for me to talk show.
00:38:46Africa like to walk the floor.
00:38:50Walk the floor.
00:38:53Walk the floor.
00:38:54Walk the floor.
00:38:55Walk the floor.
00:38:56Ladies and gentleman.
00:39:02Please welcome the undisputed WWE Champion, the American Nightmare, Cody Rolls!
00:39:19Cody Rolls, a superstar, no stranger to the goings-on within the bloodline,
00:39:24but now the American Nightmare must shift his focus to two weeks from tomorrow, Riyadh,
00:39:31Saudi Arabia, WWE on Peacock. Cody Rolls, the undisputed WWE Champion, versus Gunther,
00:39:38the World Heavyweight Champion. The winner of that match will be crowned the first ever
00:39:44WWE Crown Jewel Champion. And Crown Jewel, we know it will be champion versus champion for the
00:39:58Crown Jewel Championship. But this week, Wade, during WWE's aforementioned tour of the United
00:40:04Kingdom, both Cody Rolls and Gunther shared the ring with another World Champion. I am talking
00:40:10about the UFC Interim Heavyweight Champion, Tom Aspinall. One of the UK's favorite songs.
00:40:19And I believe Aspinall made it known that potentially after his UFC career is finished,
00:40:28he's very interested in crossing over here to the world of WWE. Yes, he is,
00:40:33and I'm glad I'm retired. Do not want to lock horns with Tom Aspinall.
00:40:49Before my remarks, we have an unbelievably sized crowd this evening.
00:41:06I wanted to just make sure that our friends up there,
00:41:11we all say hi to our friends up there. Our friends down here, we say hi to all them.
00:41:19A very wise individual recently said to me when it comes to the pantheon of top men and top women
00:41:32in professional wrestling, who would be the next leader? He said that the next one doesn't always
00:41:38look like the last one. It's been a quote I've been thinking about quite a bit lately.
00:41:44But in regards to this crown jewel championship, it's not about the next one. It's not about the
00:41:53last one. It's about who is going to be the first one. So many what ifs in the history of our sports.
00:42:09I'll take you down that road. What if the NWA world's champion Harley Race fought against the
00:42:16WWWF's Bruno Sammartino? What if the AWA's Nick Bockwinkle went against the nature boy
00:42:24Ric Flair, champion versus champion? What if WCW's Bill Goldberg fought Stone Cold Steve Austin?
00:42:39And often when these what ifs did come to fruition, the outcome was not always satisfactory,
00:42:49a clever out if you will. When it comes to crown jewel,
00:42:54at the end of that night, there will be a definitive crown jewel champion.
00:43:01Again, champion versus champion. I am not going to stand here and disparage my opponent Raw's
00:43:09world heavyweight champion, Gunther. Widely respected by his peers and legends alike,
00:43:21brother could chop a tree down with his hands.
00:43:25I'm not. But even if I was, I wouldn't bet against me. Why do I think that I am leaving
00:43:36crown jewel as champion? Well, for starters, look at this thing. Corey Gray's been talking
00:44:02about it all night on commentary, one of the most beautifully designed title belts in the history
00:44:09of our sport. But beauty, beauty is only skin deep. In the last two plus years, you and I,
00:44:17the WWE audience, pro wrestling fans alike, we have gotten to know each other, have we not?
00:44:23So, you know, when I came back to WWE, I wanted to take the John Cena schedule. I wanted to take
00:44:34that model. And by God, we did take that schedule. Hell, we even added to that schedule. I have
00:44:41bled. I have sweat. I have paid the price. And I am not foolish enough to think that I am done
00:44:47paying the price. But again, it's almost skin deep. The real reason that I think I'm leaving
00:45:00crown jewel as champion. She's sitting at home right now. She's about three foot tall. And I
00:45:11need her to know that when my bones turn to dust, my name will be attached to this title
00:45:17as its first champion. I need her to know the name was given to me is the same name that was
00:45:23given to her. And it will matter. And she will know you play the game not to lose, but you play
00:45:30to win. Now, I'd like to invite next Friday on SmackDown, the world heavyweight champion
00:45:45Gunther to stand in this ring with me. I'd like to ask him what his reasons for all of this are.
00:45:53And I'd like to look him in the eyes and say, hey, champ, what do you want to talk about?
00:46:05Well, there you have it. The American nightmare laying down the gauntlet and fighting
00:46:11the world heavyweight champion Gunther to SmackDown next week. Wade,
00:46:16do you think Gunther's going to answer the call? Gunther backs down to nobody. And let me tell you
00:46:22a crown jewel, there are massive implications for the legacies of both Cody Rhodes and the
00:46:27ring general, Gunther, pending who wins that matchup and that new champion.
00:46:32It certainly seems that Cody Rhodes has been able to shift his focus to Gunther and the
00:46:36crown jewel championship. However, I've got to believe that in the back of the American
00:46:40nightmare's mind, one man is haunting every thought of Cody's. You know what I'm talking
00:46:47about? I know exactly who you're talking about. Here's the couple of weeks ago, KO,
00:46:51inexplicably jumping Cody Rhodes in the aftermath of the bad blood PLA. What's the reason, KO?
00:46:59People are asking me why I turned on Cody Rhodes. Cody Rhodes turned.
00:47:05Kevin was told not to show up last week on SmackDown and moments before a confrontation
00:47:10between Owens and Rhodes, Randy Orton of all people would play peacekeeper between his two
00:47:15friends. Randy Orton tried to calm down KO, received an errant shot immediately, gave one
00:47:22back to KO. And then later on, as these two were discussing the issue, KO savagely attacked his
00:47:31now former friend, Randy Orton. It would appear that Kevin Owens is now back to his most unpredictable
00:47:39right now. Let's go.
00:47:46I've been in WWE now for about 10 years. Actually, it's been over 10 years just recently.
00:47:54And I've had a lot of ups and downs over those 10 years, but
00:47:59I don't think things I've ever felt as bad as they do right now.
00:48:05Because for WWE officials to tell me to stay home and not come to work, not come to SmackDown where
00:48:12I belong, because of what I did to Cody Rhodes after bad blood is just so unfair and ridiculous.
00:48:25I mean, look at what we've seen WWE superstars do to each other
00:48:29in and out of the ring, in the locker rooms, all the ambush attacks, the beatdowns.
00:48:35And I get told to stay away because I dropped their little golden boy outside of a stupid bus.
00:48:44Come on. That really makes me ask myself just how appreciated and valued I am by the
00:48:55company. But that I can live with. I can kind of get past that. What I can't get over, though,
00:49:04is what Randy Orton did to me. Randy, I can't believe you betrayed me like that.
00:49:16And you can let people say whatever they want about me. Kevin Owens turns on all his friends,
00:49:20blah, blah, blah. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
00:49:25I would have never done that to you ever. Because I thought what we had was different.
00:49:34Dude, I. I just can't believe you picked Cody Rhodes over me.
00:49:45And, you know, I got to be honest with everybody, I with everything that's happening right now,
00:49:50between the disrespect shown to me by WWE and Randy breaking my my trust like that, I.
00:50:01I really don't know if or when. I can come back.
00:50:07I don't know what anyone else has planned for Kevin Owens, but I need to get my hands on
00:50:12Kevin Owens and I want to do it at Crown Jewel. I had a feeling this was coming, Randy. I'm sorry.
00:50:21It's just not something I can do right now. Well, we're gonna we're gonna do it at Crown Jewel.
00:50:25I'm gonna do it at Crown Jewel. I'm gonna do it at Crown Jewel.
00:50:29I'm gonna do it at Crown Jewel. I'm gonna do it at Crown Jewel.
00:50:31I'm sorry. It's just not something I can do right now.
00:50:36What do you mean it's not something that you can do it right now?
00:50:40You don't understand. It's not that I won't. I can't.
00:50:45You can't. I don't think you understand what I'm saying.
00:50:47I don't think you understand. I don't think you understand what I'm saying.
00:50:50I'm not asking permission. With all due respect.
00:50:52What I am saying is I want Kevin Owens at Crown Jewel.
00:50:55With all due respect, I'm saying I can't because it's coming from up above.
00:51:07Right. Well, then I guess I know who I need to talk to.
00:51:16A-Town. Randy Orton denied a request for a match at Crown Jewel.

00:51:58and Austin Theory.
00:52:01A-Town
00:52:02down under.
00:52:05A. Theory and Waller certainly know what it takes
00:52:07to succeed at the highest level
00:52:09when the stakes are at their pinnacle.
00:52:12Another number one contender's AAA Qualifier.
00:52:15A-Town down under versus Los Garza.
00:52:17And the new Tag Team on SmackDown
00:52:20The Machine Guns are here, next!
00:52:28It is time for the second Triple Threat Tag Team qualifying match of the evening.
00:52:33There you see Ferto on your left, Angel on your right, and Electra Lopez in the middle,
00:52:39all representing Legado del Fantasma.
00:52:42The winner of this Triple Threat will advance to next week and battle DIY
00:52:47with the winners receiving a tag team title shot.
00:53:17And your opponents, the team of Alex Shelley and Chris Saban, Motor City Machine Guns!
00:53:37This debut has been a long time coming.
00:53:40The Motor City Machine Guns, the newest addition to the tag team division.
00:53:45Nick Aldis looking to his past to help shape the future here on SmackDown.
00:53:50Quite simply weighed, Alex Shelley, Chris Saban have innovated and influenced the entire modern day tag team game.
00:53:59They're quite simply your favorite tag team, favorite tag team.
00:54:04Three time TNA Wrestling Tag Team Champions looking to test their skills in WWE.
00:54:12You might be right there, Corey. These guys, and Cody Rhodes mentioned a few historical examples earlier,
00:54:17but the Motor City Machine Guns are the ultimate.
00:54:21What if, these guys are great, but what if they competed in WWE?
00:54:27Now we're going to find out, and it has not started well at all.
00:54:31Chris Saban receiving a very painful welcome to WWE again under Triple Threat Tag Team rules.
00:54:35One member of each team remains legal at all times.
00:54:38So the Motor City Machine Guns have been trending online all day after it was announced they're here.
00:54:44The knives are out in the locker room for the Motor City Machine Guns.
00:54:49You're not just going to waltz into SmackDown and take over.
00:54:53Well again, when it comes to tag team chemistry, Saban and Shelley second to none.
00:54:58They have influenced and created a brand new style of tag team wrestling,
00:55:02which has really become the norm over the last decade or so.
00:55:05And it could be argued that Shelley and Saban were the innovators of it.
00:55:08Yeah, absolutely. They have dominated around the world.
00:55:11The question is, can you do it under the biggest spotlight of all,
00:55:15against the best teams here in WWE?
00:55:19Here we go.
00:55:21A shot out of a cannon. Chris Saban taking everybody down.
00:55:24But Waller just dropped Shelley with a right hand.
00:55:27Remember, Waller, in theory, back at WrestleMania,
00:55:30became tag team champions in a six pack challenge ladder match.
00:55:34They've been complaining about losing those championships ever since this is their ticket.
00:55:39Back to the big time.
00:55:42Although that ticket may have just been ripped off by the Motor City Machine Guns.
00:55:47Let me ask you this, Wade.
00:55:49With all of the accomplishments in the Machine Guns career,
00:55:52is it an advantage having inspired so many wrestlers over the last generation?
00:55:57Just puts added pressure on the shoulders of the Motor City Machine Guns.
00:56:01Yeah, you've dominated around the world.
00:56:03You are expected to do the same here on SmackDown.
00:56:07Can you live up to the billing that you've created for yourselves over the past 18 or so years?
00:56:13Alex Shelley, an absolute wizard when it comes to technical wrestling.
00:56:17There was nothing fancy there.
00:56:19Waller just knocked Shelley's teeth down his throat.
00:56:24Beautiful double team by Legado del Fantasma.
00:56:28Angel Inverto.
00:56:30Alex Shelley spending a significant amount of time up in the air
00:56:34before being driven face first into the buckle.
00:56:37High low, that could do it.
00:56:39Alex Shelley getting beaten from pillar to post on his debut here on SmackDown.
00:56:45Good kick by Angel right between the eyes of Grayson Waller.
00:56:49And again, at stake here, an opportunity.
00:56:51Beautiful dueling moonsault.
00:56:54Santos Escobar has been demanding opportunities.
00:56:57Demanding opportunities for his man here on SmackDown.
00:57:01As well as Electro Lopez who's stood at ringside.
00:57:04They are proving their worth right now.
00:57:07And again, the winners of this triple threat will advance to battle D.I.Y. next week
00:57:12with the winners of that contest earning a tag team title opportunity.
00:57:16Grayson Waller looking for a vintage Waller.
00:57:20Denied.
00:57:21Not out of midair by Alex Shelley who's firing off knees.
00:57:26Spectacular double team by the Motor City Machine Guns.
00:57:30About time the Motor City Machine Guns started bouncing back
00:57:34but immediately on the offense once again is Angel.
00:57:39This could be a bit of a learning curve we're seeing here, Wade.
00:57:42Different level of competition.
00:57:44Up in a cynic from the word go.
00:57:46You have to prove it once you get here to the very top level on SmackDown.
00:57:50Oh my goodness.
00:57:51What power being shown by Angel and Berto now from the top turnbuckle.
00:57:57My God!
00:57:59What a devastation in ring.
00:58:02Can they get the three count?
00:58:03Covered by Berto.
00:58:06This fortuitous landing for A-Town down under.
00:58:10Spectacular effort there.
00:58:13Tag made off.
00:58:14Austin Theory now legal for A-Town down under.
00:58:16Angel hung across the top turnbuckle.
00:58:19Big dropkick by Austin Theory.
00:58:22Keep your eyes on Berto.
00:58:24Caught Shelley with an enziguri in midair.
00:58:29Back elbow rocks Berto.
00:58:34And Theory driving Berto down across his own knee.
00:58:38A-Town down under wants the gold yet again.
00:58:41No idea how Alex Shelley is still standing at this point
00:58:44given the volume of abuse he's received.
00:58:46But he caught the tag and Saban's in there.
00:58:49And this is why the Machine Guns are so special.
00:58:52Flawless teamwork.
00:58:55This is what all this one impression of the tag division
00:58:58and prove you are the best team in the industry.
00:59:01Great teams are always on the same page.
00:59:03The Motor City Machine Guns practically in the same syllable.
00:59:06Now Alex Shelley, purse on the top.
00:59:09Saban with Berto in his clutches.
00:59:12Beautiful splash into the neckbreaker.
00:59:15The Motor City Machine Guns do it in their debut.
00:59:20Here are your winners,
00:59:23Motor City Machine Guns.
00:59:29It was not easy, nor did Saban and Shelley expect it to be.
00:59:34But the outcome was the desired one.
00:59:37Welcome to SmackDown, Motor City Machine Guns.
00:59:41And balance against D.I.Y. next week.
00:59:45Right now I'd like to welcome my guests, both Carmelo Hayes and Andrade
00:59:50just one week before their scheduled proverbial Game 7 matchup here on SmackDown.
00:59:56But tonight...
00:59:58And there really ain't nothing to talk about. You close your mouth, bro.
01:00:01Hey, close your mouth.
01:00:03No, don't have to tell him to close his mouth. Ain't nobody paying to hear you speak anyway.
01:00:05How about you shut the hell up?
01:00:07I got a cough.
01:00:28Game 7 coming your way.
01:00:30It has gotten so personal between Carmelo and Andrade.
01:00:33I think that was Game 6.5
01:00:35But next week is the big one. You're right, Corey.
01:00:38I don't know anything about snatching another man's chain
01:00:41as it never ends well for the person doing the stealing.
01:01:00The following contest is a tag team match.
01:01:04Check it for one call.
01:01:06Introducing first, from Orlando, Florida
01:01:10Naomi!
01:01:13Well, Naomi no doubt riding high after pinning Nia Jax in the middle of the ring last week.
01:01:19But the work is just beginning.
01:01:22Naomi joins forces with Bayley to battle Nia Jax and Candice LeRae in tag team action
01:01:28live next on SmackDown.
01:01:34Go, go, go, go, go, go!
01:02:04Candice LeRae is out here and she's partnering with Nia Jax.
01:02:11Making her way to the ring, from San Diego, California
01:02:16she is the WWE Women's Champion
01:02:23Nia Jax!
01:02:26Nia Jax no doubt has a lot on her mind.
01:02:28Never mentioned the fact that Tiffany Stratton was her scheduled partner tonight.
01:02:32But how about what's going down at Crown Jewel?
01:02:35We heard Cody talk about it regarding his battle with Gunther.
01:02:38The same happens on the women's side of things.
01:02:41Women's World Champion Liv Morgan battles WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax.
01:02:46The winner becomes the first ever women's WWE Crown Jewel Champion.
01:02:52Again, two weeks from tomorrow streaming live on Peacock.
01:02:55And Nia's face tells the entire story.
01:02:58We're used to seeing the million dollar smile on that wrecking ball.
01:03:01But Nia skeptical, to say the least, of Candice LeRae as her partner tonight.
01:03:05Nia Jax has a ton on her plate, not least the Crown Jewel Championship
01:03:09in just over two weeks time.
01:03:11And Nick Aldis, the GM of SmackDown, should have given Jax the night off
01:03:16once Tiffany Stratton was out with the flu.
01:03:20Cover by Jax, looking to end this one early.
01:03:23That is why Nia Jax is such a pro.
01:03:26She's been screwed over by Nick Aldis tonight
01:03:28yet still straight out of the blocks, taking full control.
01:03:31Now show us what you can do, Candice LeRae.
01:03:35Our first glimpse of the Poison Pixie in this tag team matchup.
01:03:38Bayley wasting no time, ripping advantage away from the opposing team.
01:03:42Tag made to Naomi.
01:03:44Candice LeRae has been very unhappy in the locker room in recent months
01:03:48as has Indi Hartwell.
01:03:50Both feel like they've been due some opportunities.
01:03:55Well, they certainly made good on that in the case of LeRae
01:03:58in winning the WWE Women's Speed Championship.
01:04:02But imagine pulling out another victory here tonight.
01:04:05That would add some real momentum.
01:04:07Find WWE Speed streaming each and every Wednesday exclusively on X.
01:04:12Right now, Naomi having a little fun at the champion's expense.
01:04:17Maybe a little too much fun.
01:04:19My goodness, Jax feeling the glow.
01:04:23Be very careful how much fun you're having when you're at mid-match
01:04:28with Queen Nia.
01:04:30The irresistible force into the cover.
01:04:36Taking on Nia Jax is a number of experiences,
01:04:40none of which can ever be described as fun.
01:04:44Pain personified.
01:04:46You have to keep your focus nonstop.
01:04:49Naomi, this is what happens.
01:04:51Big spine buster by the WWE Women's Champion.
01:04:55And that's going to do it.
01:04:56What a senton by Nia.
01:05:00Somehow, Naomi survives.
01:05:03This tag team match continues.
01:05:05Can Naomi and Bayley get back in it?
01:05:11Tag team action continues tonight on SmackDown.
01:05:14Naomi and Bayley battling Candice LeRae and WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax.
01:05:20Tags made on both sides.
01:05:22Here comes the role model.
01:05:24This is the fresh Bayley after Naomi has taken an utter beatdown
01:05:28over the past five minutes or so.
01:05:31And now Candice LeRae has to start figuring out something very quick indeed.
01:05:36Bayley like a one-woman wrecking crew right now,
01:05:39flattening Jax and LeRae, looking for the belly-to-back suplex.
01:05:43Nice technique there from LeRae, stopping the role model in her tracks.
01:05:50And the Poison Pixie eats the top turnbuckle.
01:05:54This has been a huge prove-it opportunity for Candice LeRae.
01:05:58Sunset flip spine first into the turnbuckle.
01:06:01Bayley scrambling for a cover.
01:06:05And Nia Jax making her presence known.
01:06:09Big kick by Naomi.
01:06:11Naomi bouncing back and cleaning the cloth of the champ and queen of the ring,
01:06:16Nia Jax, in synchro.
01:06:21Bayley right now is feeling it, as is Naomi.
01:06:26Naomi takes down Jax on the outside.
01:06:29High risk and it paid off, but it backfired now on Bayley.
01:06:34Indi Hartwell on the outside, geeing up her mentor Candice LeRae.
01:06:39Can Candice LeRae score a shocking victory here?
01:06:43LeRae going for broke and Bayley one step ahead.
01:06:50LeRae tossed unceremoniously back into the ring, but watch Indi Hartwell.
01:06:55Indi Hartwell just shoved Bayley into the ring post.
01:06:59Pays to have good friends at ringside when you're up against the best like Bayley.
01:07:04What a moonsault!
01:07:06Into the cover.
01:07:08What an upset!
01:07:12Here are your winners, the team of Candice LeRae
01:07:17and the WWE Women's Champion, Nia Jax.
01:07:22Wait, I don't know if there's anybody in this arena as shocked as Candice's own partner, Nia Jax.
01:07:29That was incredible.
01:07:31One of the most incongruous duos we have ever seen tagging together here on SmackDown.
01:07:38And it seems Nia Jax is angry that she didn't get the victory herself.
01:07:42But still, it's a big dog.
01:07:44Congrats to Candice LeRae for stepping up when it really counts.
01:07:49What a win for Nia Jax and Candice LeRae.
01:07:51The time is almost upon us, Wade.
01:07:53We heard from Roman Reigns himself earlier tonight
01:07:57that Roman would acknowledge Solo in this very arena.
01:08:01I don't know how it's going to go down, but it's coming our way.
01:08:03What do you think SmackDown will look like next week when we get to Brooklyn
01:08:07if Roman acknowledges Solo tonight?
01:08:09I'll believe it when I see it, but you're right.
01:08:11We are heading over to Brooklyn next Friday.
01:08:14And you heard from Tony Rhodes earlier tonight.
01:08:17He challenged Gunther to meet him in the ring at SmackDown.
01:08:20Well, it is happening.
01:08:22What will go down a little over a week before these two will clash
01:08:26and ground you'll find out next week at SmackDown.
01:08:29Tonight we have witnessed two incredible Triple Threat Tag Team Match qualifiers.
01:08:34The winners of both will meet next Friday in Brooklyn.
01:08:37The Motor City Machine Guns in their second ever match on SmackDown
01:08:41battle D.I.Y. for a shot at the champions.
01:08:45And they are tied at 3-3.
01:08:48Of these two bitterest of enemies, they get to decide in Game 7 next week.
01:08:55Andrade mellowed in a match neither man's ego will allow him to lose.
01:09:01That is next Friday here on SmackDown.
01:09:08I am standing by with SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis.
01:09:12Nick, we just saw what took place between Andrade and Carmelo Hayes.
01:09:15Andrade and Carmelo have been escorted from the building
01:09:18because this thing isn't going to be settled backstage.
01:09:20It's going to be settled in the squared circle.
01:09:22And that's next week on SmackDown from Brooklyn.
01:09:24But the thing is, because this is such a personal issue
01:09:26and because this is Game 7, I decided we needed a special referee
01:09:30who could handle business, a referee who, quite frankly,
01:09:33hates both of these men equally.
01:09:35You know, that's the funny thing about this, because I have no reason
01:09:37even to be involved in this, if you're quite honest.
01:09:39I've already beaten both of them twice.
01:09:41So here's the thing, if you want me to go ahead and go in there,
01:09:43I'll put on the zebra stripes, I'll be the best referee WWE has ever seen.
01:09:46As a matter of fact, in 20 years, you'll probably put me in as a wrestler
01:09:48and as a referee, I accept.
01:09:50But here's the thing, gentlemen, if you come in there,
01:09:52I'm calling it down the middle, and here's how it goes.
01:09:55You think you're signing up for a little shot at this?
01:09:57No, no, all you're signing up for is to get smacked back to factory settings.
01:10:01And your aspirations for this championship?
01:10:03Up in smoke. So it goes. Yeah.
01:10:10LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:10:33LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:10:38LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:10:43LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:10:48LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:10:54LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:10:59LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:11:04Will Roman Reigns acknowledge the new tribal chief, Solo Sakoa?
01:11:10We find out next.
01:11:13LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:11:23LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:11:28LA Knight Special Guest Referee next week.
01:11:33ROTC! ROTC! ROTC!
01:11:38ROTC! ROTC! ROTC!
01:11:43ROTC! ROTC! ROTC!
01:11:48ROTC! ROTC! ROTC!
01:11:53ROTC! ROTC! ROTC!
01:11:58Columbia, South Carolina!
01:12:03ROTC!
01:12:08ROTC!
01:12:13ROTC!
01:12:18ROTC!
01:12:23ROTC!
01:12:29Acknowledge me!
01:12:46Maybe for the last time, Wade, this is absolutely unfathomable.
01:12:53Roman Reigns admitted to Jimmy Uso earlier that Roman himself,
01:12:58the OTC, would acknowledge Solo Sakoa.
01:13:04Well, if Roman Reigns really is about to acknowledge the new tribal chief,
01:13:11my, how the mighty will have fallen.
01:13:16It's said that the greatest of leaders know when they're outgunned.
01:13:20Could that be the case with Roman?
01:13:22Has Roman just resigned himself to the reality that Solo and the Tongans
01:13:29and Jacob Fatu are just too powerful?
01:13:33Solo Sakoa looks like he's out here ready to fight.
01:13:37So whatever Roman Reigns has in store here, he needs to tread very carefully.
01:13:50The Solo Agi will adorn in the sacred hula hala.
01:13:55ROTC!
01:14:00ROTC!
01:14:05ROTC!
01:14:10ROTC!
01:14:15ROTC!
01:14:20ROTC!
01:14:27Earlier tonight, I heard that you told Jay that our family's stronger now.
01:14:42You told Jay that our bloodline was stronger now.
01:15:03I don't see it.
01:15:06I don't see anything that tells me we're better off now.
01:15:13If anything, we're divided and broken.
01:15:19After everything we've been through, everything we went through in the spring,
01:15:25everything that we lost through the summer,
01:15:31and we stand here divided like this?
01:15:38Solo, I told my father that I could fix this.
01:15:49All I want to do is put us back in the promised land.
01:16:01I want titles around our waist.
01:16:05I want paydays coming from the heavens.
01:16:08I want abundance.
01:16:10I want our family to be priority.
01:16:12Tell me what I have to do to fix this.
01:16:20What you have to do?
01:16:23That's an easy fix, Roman.
01:16:26What do you have to do to fix this?
01:16:28I'll tell you what.
01:16:29All you have to do is acknowledge me.
01:16:37Me.
01:17:07I acknowledge you.
01:17:20There.
01:17:22I acknowledge you.
01:17:25Does that make you feel better?
01:17:28No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:17:31Roman, that's not good enough.
01:17:36I need you to acknowledge me as your tribal chief.
01:18:06No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:18:14I need you to acknowledge me as your tribal chief,
01:18:20or else.
01:18:27Or else what?
01:18:34Look.
01:18:35Look at you.
01:18:36There he is.
01:18:37I knew it.
01:18:38You never changed.
01:18:40You never changed.
01:18:41You've always wanted this, huh?
01:18:43Since you never changed, I'll never change either.
01:19:00The snap of his fingers.
01:19:02Solo.
01:19:03Oh, wait.
01:19:04Oh, my God.
01:19:05That's Jimmy Uso.
01:19:11There he is.
01:19:13There he is.
01:19:15Look at his face.
01:19:17Huh?
01:19:18Look at his face.
01:19:20Solo trying to take out Roman, but here comes Reigns.
01:19:28Jimmy Uso looks like he's been thrown out of a moving vehicle.
01:19:31Roman Reigns now has to fight off this mob on his own.
01:19:35Here comes Jacob Batu.
01:19:37Committed clothesline by the OTC.
01:19:42Superman Punch takes down Solo.
01:19:46Devastating superstar in our industry,
01:19:50holding his own against a bunch of savages.
01:19:53Whoa.
01:19:54The aura of fire.
01:19:58The ultimate symbol.
01:19:59The power of the bloodline.
01:20:19Solo from behind.
01:20:23The bloodline fight by their own set of rules.
01:20:28A low blow to Roman Reigns, and now the bloodline hounds are attacking.
01:20:34Tonight, the hyenas feast on Roman Reigns.
01:20:40And there is simply nobody to help the now former tribal chief.
01:20:47What is in there?
01:20:50You hear me?
01:20:52This is my bloodline.
01:20:55This is my bloodline, baby.
01:21:03For the second week in a row,
01:21:06Roman Reigns has attempted to stand against his bloodline,
01:21:10and as a result, has been sacrificed at the altar of Solo.
01:21:19What?
01:21:27OTC, what?
01:21:29This is a beast.
01:21:33What a beast.
01:21:35Don't do this.
01:21:37Don't do this, Roman.
01:21:39Roman Reigns looks like a man out of ashes, or perhaps...
01:21:44Another spike by Solo.
01:21:46Solo!
01:21:53Stand against the bloodline at your own peril,
01:21:57even if you are the OTC.
01:22:01Solo! Solo! Solo! Solo! Solo! Solo!
01:22:11This is my ring now.
01:22:13This is my uber follow.
01:22:15I'm the tribal chief.
01:22:17This is my bloodline.
01:22:19These people acknowledge me.
01:22:45This is my bloodline.
