00:00Then, now, forever, together.
00:30Then, now, forever, together.
01:00One week from today, Saturday night's main event returns and closes out a double shot of action in Salt Lake City.
01:13Welcome to main event.
01:14The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
01:36Introducing first, accompanied by National Dockers from Chicago, Illinois, laying in at 232 pounds, representing the Street Profits, Montez Ford!
01:52Now, that is an introduction from Mark Nash.
01:56Getting the action started this week, indeed.
01:57Let's raise our cups.
01:58It's going to be a party with the Street Profits here on main event.
02:02We welcome you in, Blake Howard.
02:04Alongside the voice of NXT, Vic Joseph, I know you're gearing up.
02:07Tonight, Halloween Havoc.
02:10Certainly am.
02:11It's going to be a huge night.
02:12One of the most unpredictable Halloween Havocs in recent memory.
02:16But we're set right now to see Montez Ford.
02:18We saw Angelo Dawkins here on main event.
02:21Let's see what Montez Ford can do when he's on his own.
02:25Because it wasn't too long ago, he was defying expectations.
02:29He can go back to the Elimination Chamber, and quite a singles competitor he showed us he could be.
02:35Let's see if he can kick right back up here tonight.
02:38He looks great, by the way.
02:39Indeed, he does.
02:39They both do, of course.
02:40Dawkins setting it off with a big win recently on main event.
02:44And now Montez Ford gets an opportunity.
02:46Dawkins now on speaking terms.
02:48Paul Brown's banging this thing.
02:49That's a whole other topic.
02:50And his opponent, from Buckinghamshire, England, weighing in at 210 pounds, representing pretty deadly, Kid Wilson!
03:16Well, here comes the personification of true masculinity.
03:22He told you to say that, didn't he?
03:24He did not tell me to say anything.
03:26But if you look, the last couple months on Friday night's SmackDown, this former NXT Tag Team Champion certainly looking to clean up toxic aggression.
03:34He is.
03:34And look, he's somebody who also is trying to find his own footing.
03:39Indeed.
03:40Right?
03:40I mean, his tag team partner went down.
03:42Much like we talked about Montez Ford, he can get it done in the ring.
03:45You talked about NXT Champions.
03:46Montez Ford, Angelo Dawkins, former NXT Tag Team Champions.
03:49So when I take a look at someone like Kid Wilson, you are 100% correct with everything you just said.
03:53It's going to be very interesting, though, to see what he can do in the ring against someone like Montez Ford.
03:59And speaking of what they can do in the ring, Vic, looking at the Street Profits, how did they regain focus after another missed tag title opportunity?
04:06I just want to talk about the tag team division in its entirety.
04:08If you go back to this past Friday on SmackDown and everything that went down the last few weeks between the MFTs reemerging, the Wyatt Six, DIY, Fraxium.
04:19I mean, there are so many players, so many teams in such a deep division that for the Street Profits, I think they just need to find, I don't want to say focus.
04:29They've got to find a couple of wins because it's going to be a very difficult road to navigate back to championship contention.
04:34That's Kit Wilson feeling himself right now.
04:36Of course, we've seen Wilson poke around the likes of Damian Priest in recent weeks, trying to send certainly some sort of message to the WWE Universe.
04:43I don't know if Damian Priest is the guy you want to start messing with.
04:46Everything that's gone on with Aleister Black and Talena Vega over the last month or so, not really the guy to start poking right now.
04:53Certainly a big message sent to Damian Priest in the form of Aleister Black from Down Under recently.
04:58But right now, Kit Wilson trying to get back into this one here against Montez Ford, and Ford collides with the ring post right there.
05:05Big collision.
05:07That's one way to clean up the aggression you talked about.
05:11Dawkins doing his best to awaken Montez Ford.
05:14I mean, that was a nasty landing.
05:17You see some coaching right there by Angelo Dawkins saying it's all mental.
05:21And of course, as we're talking about Kit Wilson trying to overthrow the toxic aggression era, does Kit Wilson truly define masculinity?
05:27Masculine.
05:29I'm not one to really comment on that, Blake.
05:31Maybe you can comment on it if you want.
05:33I think everyone has.
05:34It's like ice cream.
05:34There's how many different flavors of it.
05:35But what I do know is that Montez Ford took a little too much time.
05:39Talking about maybe some of those high risks you've seen in singles competition.
05:42Kit Wilson looking to shut that down right here.
05:45Speaking of aggression.
05:46Yeah, exactly.
05:46Take a look at this.
05:47I mean, a little bit hypocritical, don't you think, Blake Howard?
05:52Kit Wilson certainly trying to turn things around.
05:53You want to talk about making a statement, doing one right here.
05:56In singles competition.
05:58How about Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed?
06:00You talk about making a statement.
06:01Everything that has gone on between them, Seth Rollins, and the Vision.
06:04And we now know who will be competing for that world heavyweight title in Salt Lake City on Saturday night's main event.
06:13And Vic, you talk about Braun Breaker, Big Bronson Reed.
06:15We're going to hear from them next.
06:16And they still have a lot of explaining to do after last week's shocker to close out Raw.
06:20You know what you should do?
06:22You should go say, I'd like to have a sit-down, gentlemen.
06:25And you should sit in between them and try to get some answers.
06:27Well, did you end up texting Braun Breaker a couple weeks ago?
06:29I ended up doing it.
06:30He got right back to me.
06:31But that's a private conversation that's going to stay between him and I.
06:34Certainly going to stay far, far away from that.
06:36At 23 miles an hour, picking up speed.
06:38As Montez Ford trying to pick up some speed right back into this matchup here.
06:42Innovative offense into the reverse neckbreaker.
06:44Hooks the outside leg.
06:45Oh!
06:46Only two right there for Montez.
06:48I get a lot of credit to Kit Wilson, too, because one of the hardest things to do is to transition from a tag team competitor to a single star.
06:55We've heard Johnny Gargano talk about it.
06:57I talk to Booker T about it every single Tuesday on NXT.
07:01As Montez goes for it all right there.
07:03And Kit Wilson.
07:04How about that innovation?
07:05Driving the face right into the shins.
07:07This could be an upset.
07:08Wilson going to high-risk territory, Vic.
07:10This would certainly be a big one as Wilson looking to maybe end it.
07:14Twisting diving elbow.
07:16Give that man a 10 if you're on the scorecards.
07:19But he couldn't get the three.
07:21And right on the cusp there, Kit Wilson certainly showing out here on main event.
07:25And going back to the Street Profits, Vic, a little bit of different look that we saw with Angelo Dawkins in singles competition.
07:30Do the Profits need their signature swag to succeed?
07:33All right, now that swag is getting swatted all around by Kit Wilson.
07:36They need to find something.
07:37They need to get momentum back.
07:38But I've been very impressed with what I've seen from Kit Wilson in this matchup.
07:43But again, he's taking a little bit too much time right now.
07:46It might not be toxic aggression.
07:47It's his brain of aggression.
07:48But Montez Ford able to evade the attack.
07:51But Kit Wilson's staying right on it here.
07:54As Wilson, oh!
07:56And the double clothesline, both superstars down.
07:58This is where you talk about being a tag team competitor.
08:00Because at this juncture in a matchup, they would be reaching out for their partners.
08:04They'd be trying to get a fresh man into the matchup.
08:06But it's mano y mano.
08:07It's man to man.
08:08It's one-on-one.
08:09Certainly seeing that gear shift right here.
08:11Of course, the Street Profits earlier this year picked up their first title reign in over four years on the road to WrestleMania 41.
08:17Three-time tag team champions.
08:19Vic, you alluded to NXT.
08:20Even the original Evolve tag team champions.
08:22They've been all around holding the gold.
08:25And Montez Ford right here.
08:27He's starting to cook.
08:29Another big clothesline.
08:30A little de-cleater.
08:32And Tez is starting to pick up some momentum.
08:34Kit trying to answer back.
08:35Reverse his course.
08:36And Kit Wilson goes for the sunset flip.
08:37The momentum takes Ford over.
08:39That might have been good for your Browns right there, Vic.
08:43Here we go.
08:44Half and half.
08:46I've been impressed with Montez Ford.
08:48I'm almost speechless right now.
08:49The evolution of this man since I first met him back in 2017.
08:54Standing moonsault doesn't go for the cover.
08:56But that could be the first step as Montez looks to turn the corner right here.
09:02Kit Wilson back to speed.
09:03Oh!
09:03Oh, no, no.
09:04Caught him.
09:04Nice counter there.
09:05Wilson!
09:06Talking about taking too much time.
09:07Ford took a little bit too much.
09:09That moment.
09:10Big connection with the knee.
09:11Kit Wilson goes down.
09:12Uh-oh.
09:13And Montez Ford.
09:15He's going right up.
09:17It didn't work earlier.
09:18To his comfort zone, Vic.
09:20We've seen this in singles competition.
09:22We've seen it in tag team action.
09:23So much taken out of both these competitors.
09:26This has been a high-octane matchup.
09:29What a way to kick off main event.
09:31Certainly got a big one still to come in the women's division.
09:33But right now, Kit Wilson looking to go to high-risk territory, Vic, here.
09:37Going for that superplex.
09:39Putting a lot of risk.
09:41Let's see how much reward can pay off.
09:43Oof.
09:44As you see the capacity crowd here.
09:47As right now, Kit Wilson, Montez Ford in dangerous waters.
09:51Wilson doing his best.
09:53Same can be said for Ford.
09:54What is going through the mind of Kit Wilson?
09:58Shifting gears.
09:58Almost maybe a white noise.
10:00Counter.
10:01Into the power bomb.
10:03Wilson's down.
10:04Now Montez looks around.
10:05No Angelo Dawkins to tag in, Vic.
10:06There's no way.
10:08Almost coast to coast.
10:10Montez Ford.
10:11All the way down.
10:15And Montez drops down from the heavens.
10:24Here is your winner.
10:27Montez Ford.
10:29We're going to see some high-flying later at Halloween Havoc with Leon Slater and Javon Evans.
10:34But what a matchup this was.
10:37The swag is certainly back here for the Street Profits as Montez Ford takes.
10:41It takes it to that high-risk territory.
10:44And it certainly pays off.
10:45So nice.
10:46See it twice.
10:47Take a look at the elevation right here.
10:48All the way down.
10:49Dropping from the heavens.
10:51And Montez Ford after an Angelo Dawkins win here on Main Event.
10:55Montez Ford picks up the win.
10:57They're trying to get back into contention in the tag team division.
10:59But it's another win right here for the Street Profits.
11:05Montez Ford takes care of business with an impressive victory to get things started on Main Event.
11:09And we've got more high-profile action coming your way when Lyra Valkyria goes one-on-one with Ivy Nile tonight.
11:16But first, here's a look at Seth Freakin' Rollins' epic rise and fall last week in Berth.
11:25Berth, Australia!
11:26In case you don't know, the official lockdown.
11:34Cody with an opportunity.
11:37Rollins used the watch to knock out Rhodes.
11:43I am the crown jewel champion.
11:48And this is the vision.
11:56The greatness that I have assembled.
12:02My oracle with my vision.
12:06We have solidified you as the undisputed GOAT.
12:11Braun Breaker with my vision.
12:16You are without a doubt the undisputed future of this industry.
12:24Big Bronson Green with my vision.
12:31You are the new Tribal Chief.
12:35I don't need the men in this ring.
12:43I have chosen the men in this ring.
12:47And they have chosen me.
12:50Because I am Seth.
12:52Bring it right!
12:54Jey Uso, LA Knight, CM Punk, for an opportunity to face Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship.
13:09CM Punk going to sleep.
13:11One, two, three, three, four.
13:12One step closer to recapturing the World Championship.
13:20Burn it down!
13:21And Braun Breaker now, with a spear to Jey Uso.
13:26And the vision, marching to the ring.
13:29And now CM Punk is cornered.
13:34A massacre by design.
13:38Punk laid waste by Rollins' vision.
13:42Team collection.
13:52Oh, snap.
14:08Oh, snap.
14:09The WWE Universe is still reeling after last week's jaw-dropping Act of Betrayal
14:38by Braun Breaker and Big Bronson Reed.
14:42Coming up on Main Event, Braun and Bronson finally break their silence
14:45when they come face-to-face with Raw GM Edda Pierce.
14:48Next.
14:54Two rings surrounded by a steel cage.
15:07You want to play games?
15:08We're going to play games.
15:11Oh my God, are you kidding me?
15:13This is going to be a win.
15:23Welcome back to WWE Main Event.
15:28We are in the 9-1-6, California's capital city, Sacramento.
15:32Once known as the heart of the gold rush.
15:34And tonight, the spirit of chasing gold lives on.
15:36Only this time, it's in the form of the World Heavyweight Championship.
15:44Inside the jam-packed Golden 1 Center, Raw General Manager Adam Pierce gave an update on Seth,
15:49freaking Rollins, and the World Heavyweight Championship after one of the most shocking double crosses in WWE history.
15:56Because of what you two did, Seth Rollins is at home, just having had major surgery.
16:05Because of what you two did, Seth Rollins is on the shelf for quite a while, which means because of what you two did,
16:13I'm out here with the unfortunate responsibility to announce to the world that as of right now, because of you two,
16:22I hereby strip Seth Rollins of the World Heavyweight Championship.
16:34You look like you like that, but don't get too caught up in it, because we're not going to be without a champion for long.
16:41We will crown a brand new World Heavyweight Champion in Salt Lake City at Saturday night's main event.
16:48Oh, CM Punk! CM Punk earned the right to fight for that championship, and his challenger will,
17:00and we're doing it old school, because there will be an over-the-top rope battle royal,
17:04and the winner goes on to Salt Lake City, goes on to Saturday night's main event,
17:08and will fight Punk, and the winner takes home the World Heavyweight Championship.
17:14And when is this battle royal going to take place?
17:28The battle royal takes place tonight in Sacramento!
17:31Now, gentlemen, that no longer belongs to Seth Rollins, and it sure as hell doesn't belong to you.
17:57Braun, I'm going to need you to hand over that championship.
18:04And what if I don't?
18:27The struggle or the records right now?
18:33It's okay. I just...
18:47I want you to shoot me some new style.
18:49That's all.
18:53Ask nicely.
18:53Braun, respectfully, I'm going to need you to hand over the championship.
19:23Respectfully.
19:27Respectfully.
19:27делают gun responsibility.
19:33Stay tuned for overall forecast.
19:35Let's get into it.
19:36Stay tuned forisini kotxing.
19:37Lenkrotxing.
19:39Seen'en kotxing.
19:40Schen'en kotxing.
19:41Sien'en kotxing.
19:41Swin'en kotxing.
19:48I'm going to be right now.
19:49Say please.
20:15Ron, respectfully,
20:19I'm going to need you to hand over the World Heavyweight Championship now.
20:26Please.
20:31That wasn't so hard, was it?
20:45Was that so hard?
20:47No, no, no.
20:49No, no, no.
20:54No, no, no!
20:57No, no, no, no!
21:03Before we move on with the show somebody smarten me up to this
21:33why is everyone so mad at us I get it hey I also watch unreal I understand with
21:50with the bad guys with the villains with the heels it's easy to point at us to go
21:55boo but
22:03but what did we do to deserve that I I failed to understand the vision had
22:12nothing to do with Seth freaking Rollins I didn't leave the tribal chief Roman Reigns
22:24and betray my best friend CM Punk for Seth freaking Rollins I pulled that move at
22:31WrestleMania because Braun Breaker is the future of WrestleMania
22:37I pulled those moves at WrestleMania because deep in my heart I always knew that Bronson
22:50Reed was better than Roman Reigns
22:59Bronson Reed proved that in Perth Australia it was tribal thief over tribal chief
23:13it was vision over bloodline
23:23and there's Seth Rollins pointing to the future with his one good arm Seth Rollins couldn't shoulder the
23:37responsibility of leading the vision into the future not with that bum shoulder
23:45he's not a visionary he's not a revolutionary he's not the workhorse of the shield he's not the leader of the vision he's a bum
23:56shoulder bitch
24:07so let's set the record straight winners right history and these are the winners right here
24:16Seth Rollins was in a main event WrestleMania no more
24:20that spot was taken from him by Braun Breaker I am an older kinder gentler more
24:28compassionate wise man Oracle advocate but Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed conspired
24:35to take that away from Seth Rollins they pulled the trigger they had the ambition
24:42they had the need they had the intensity to become WrestleMania main eventers
24:55that's not revisionist history that's a revision of the future
25:04I thank you for your indulgence
25:10I thank you for affording me this time
25:13and oh yeah
25:15by the way
25:17welcome
25:21to Monday
25:23Night
25:24Raw
25:25As the search for new number one contender to the World Heavyweight Championship
25:39heats up it's worth mentioning how quickly momentum can shift in WWE
25:44Becky Lynch found that out first-hand when she underestimated Maxine Dupree
25:48who shocked the WWE Universe by picking up a count-out victory over the man a couple of weeks ago
25:54As a result Maxine Dupree secured herself another shot at the Women's Intercontinental Championship
26:01but this time Becky Lynch will be focused fired up and determined not to make the same mistake twice
26:06Can Maxine prove lightning can strike again or will the man remind the world why she's a championship-caliber superstar?
26:13Find out next on Main Event
26:15My name is John Cena
26:24I'm a kid who grew up in a small town in West Newberry
26:26The time is up
26:27And I'm living the dream
26:28The champ is
26:31What time is down
26:32What time is down
26:36What time is down
26:38You can't see me
26:41What time is down
26:43Friday night's mockdown and Saturday night's Main Event
26:55Are coming to the DELTA center in saltler to Utah on Friday háctober 31st And saturday November 1st
27:02individual tickets are available now via SeatGeek
27:05Meanwhile, back inside the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento,
27:12the stage was set for a championship showdown
27:15as Sacramento's own Maxine Dupree challenged the man, Becky Lynch,
27:19for the Women's Intercontinental title last Monday on RAW.
27:29Towing the line, center of the ring.
27:32Back and forth they go, blow after blow,
27:36and the uppercut by Lynch, and then the kick.
27:39This audience is feeling every single shot once again
27:42trying for that manhandled slam,
27:44and Maxine just has it too scary, that's a knockout!
27:47Missed the heel kick, came back with the other foot,
27:49and then just missed out on grabbing the IC.
27:52What a transition! The ankle lock is in!
27:55She's a Chad Gable, her former mentor here from the Alpha Academy.
28:02Maxine Dupree with the ankle lock, but Becky Lynch able to get free.
28:07You saw her limping away on that left leg, but able to power through,
28:12and now she locks it in!
28:14Butterfly suplex, Maxine doing her best to prevent that arm extension,
28:18but it is extended, center of the ring, Maxine!
28:21Bridging out!
28:23Oh, nice!
28:24How about the athleticism!
28:25Back into the ankle lock!
28:27By Dupree, right back into the ankle lock!
28:31Incredible by Dupree!
28:33A tap out here, and we have got a title change!
28:36We asked the question not long ago, is this the best we've seen of Maxine?
28:39I think it's a resounding yes, as Becky tries to limp back into an offensive posture.
28:44Well, the champ is looking like a complete mess right now!
28:47Forget unmatched finesse!
28:49But certainly unmatched grit, and desire to cling on to that championship.
28:55We have got a dogfight now!
28:57It has been like this all night long on Raw on Netflix here in Sacramento.
29:02We have new tag team champions, we had Dirty Dom retain his IC.
29:07And now, Becky Lynch!
29:09Face first!
29:10She's in a dogfight against an Oscar!
29:14Crossbody for the Intercontinental Championship!
29:17Oh!
29:18Two and change!
29:20Oh, what a high-start pair!
29:22The Maxine Dupley is just refusing to be denied tonight!
29:26And maybe the will is leaving the body of the champ!
29:29Oh, no!
29:30No, no!
29:31What is she doing?
29:33Sometimes, Joe, it's just not your night!
29:36And it's damage limitation, which for Becky Lynch right now,
29:39is clinging on to that championship by Hulk or by Kruk!
29:43But once again, Maxine is just wise to it!
29:46Good for Maxine to say, you're not walking away, we're competing for that!
29:51Oh, Sunset!
29:52Oh, but Becky's holding on to everything she can, including Jessica Coe!
29:56Oh, no!
29:57We could have it here!
29:59It's so close for Dupree!
30:03Dupree thought she had it!
30:05No!
30:06She hits her!
30:07With the championship, the frustration of Becky Lynch boils over!
30:13And the bell rings!
30:17And a DQ losing her composure!
30:20Obviously, no title change with the DQ!
30:23Maxine's the winner, but Becky Lynch, again, now just beating down on Dupree!
30:31Well, Lynch had two goals when she came out tonight!
30:36Number one, hold on to that championship by Hulk or by Kruk!
30:40Number two, punish and humiliate Maxine Dupree!
30:44Mission one is achieved, now we're witnessing mission two!
30:48So there will be no title change, but there will be a beatdown!
30:55Becky Lynch reframed the story of the recent frustration, not just Maxine Dupree, but the circumstances surrounding the vision.
31:08Her husband, Seth Rollins, forced to vacate due to injury.
31:13Becky Lynch retains her title via disqualification, but the man has lost all control of her emotions.
31:20And that wasn't the only title on the line last Monday.
31:23Over in the tag team division, the phenomenal AJ Styles joined forces with Dragon Lee,
31:28as they set out to dethrone the Judgment Day for the World Tag Team Championships.
31:36The stakes are at their highest!
31:39This one completely up for grabs now, and AJ Styles looks like toast!
31:44Camusol lands!
31:46Ten's all around for that!
31:48This one's gonna sting!
31:49Coup de Grasse!
31:51And the cover to retain!
31:54No!
31:55Dragon Lee!
31:57Dragon Lee went flying over JD McDonough!
32:00McDonough thought he had blocked him, and Lee went flying for the save!
32:05Great reflexes there from Dragon Lee!
32:08It should've been over once again!
32:10Judgment Day should've retained!
32:12Man, oh man!
32:14Absolute chaos and battling, but keep your eyes peeled, Finn!
32:18The pace we're dealing with here is incredible!
32:21And the...
32:23Yes!
32:25Trying to deliver his own medicine!
32:27Is he looking for a Styles clash?
32:29Denied!
32:30No one does it like AJ Styles!
32:32Letting Stan, would you look at Styles?
32:35Look at Styles!
32:36The future Hall of Famer!
32:38How about some gold right here?
32:41Here are your winners!
32:48And the new World Tank Team Champion, Dragon Lee!
32:56And the phenomenal AJ Styles!
33:07Coming up, the relentless Ivy Nile is looking to make a statement
33:10when she squares off against the former Women's Intercontinental Champion, Lyra Valkyria!
33:14Find out who leaves Sacktown!
33:16With a much needed win, when these fierce competitors collide!
33:19Next, on Main Event!
33:20Next, on Main Event!
33:50Pauly, where you been?
33:59I've been waiting for you.
34:00It's been like 45 minutes.
34:02Oh, you're a funny guy.
34:03Am I?
34:03Yeah.
34:04You're not going to believe this.
34:05I just had to have production change of graphic.
34:09Well, poor you.
34:10You ought to have a graphic change.
34:12Graphic.
34:12A graphic change.
34:13Do you understand what kind of week I've had?
34:15Do you understand what kind of night I had?
34:17But this graphic, understand, pertains to you especially.
34:21Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed had to come off the graphic for the battle royal.
34:26Why?
34:29Because Bronson Reed and Braun Breaker are officially out of the battle royal.
34:36Really?
34:37Yeah, really.
34:38Let me guess.
34:39You'd like me to put Bronson Reed and Braun Breaker back in the battle royal.
34:42Yeah.
34:43Yeah.
34:43I would.
34:44Would you really?
34:45Yeah.
34:45Tell you what.
34:46What?
34:47Say please.
34:58Mr. Pierce.
34:59Sir.
35:00Mm-hmm.
35:01If you would please take it into your kind consideration.
35:05Oh, tell me more.
35:05To put Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed back into the battle royal.
35:14Please.
35:15That wasn't so hard, was it?
35:19No.
35:20In fact, it was pleasurable.
35:21And I enjoy doing business with you, sir.
35:23I know you do.
35:24Tell you what.
35:25Yes, sir.
35:27No.
35:27Braun Breaker and Braun Breaker and Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed's betrayal of Seth Brink and Rollins has shaken Monday Night Raw to its core, leaving the World Heavyweight Championship faking.
35:42Now, Adam Pearce is calling for action, ordering a number one contender's battle royale to decide who will move on to face CM Punk for the title at Saturday night's main event.
35:52But with Braun Breaker and Bronson Reed left out, the field is wide open, and with everything on the line, anyone can step up and claim their shot at championship gold tonight on Main Event.
36:04Welcome back to Main Event.
36:08Welcome back to Main Event.
36:12You scared?
36:17Of what?
36:17You just sat straight up.
36:19The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
36:24Introducing first, representing American-made from Knoxville, Tennessee, Ivan Nile.
36:32Ah, makes sense now.
36:33Well, the Pit Bull is certainly out, Vic.
36:35And we talk about Tatum Paxley with a huge opportunity coming up on Halloween Havoc.
36:39A superstar who certainly knows Tatum very well.
36:41A former partner as the Pit Bull looks to stand on business here.
36:44Looking to gain her fourth victory on Main Event this year.
36:47This is also an opportunity for the Cree brothers to look on at Ivy Nile and maybe figure some things out.
36:56Maybe this trio can start to turn some heads, turn the corners as we come into the end of 2025, and we start to look forward to the new year.
37:07As Survivor Series is presented by Riyadh Season, the ultimate entertainment festival with live shows, sports, food, fashion, and theme parks.
37:14October through March, perfect for all ages.
37:17And by Xfinity, the most intelligent Wi-Fi made for streaming WWE.
37:22Xfinity, imagine that.
37:24I'd be certainly looking to set a big example here tonight.
37:28Well, you're talking about Tatum Paxley.
37:30Here's someone who knows Tatum Paxley so very well.
37:34Her BFF, so to speak.
37:36And her opponent, from Dublin, Ireland, Lyra Valkyria!
37:47And listen to this response right here for the first woman to ever hold, the Women's Intercontinental Championship.
37:54Certainly looking to kickstart a major day, and as Vic, you talked about it, her best friend in NXT.
37:59It's kind of, it would be poetic, right?
38:01Lyra Valkyria won the NXT Women's Championship at Halloween Havoc.
38:05Indeed.
38:05It would be so great, and these are her words, not mine, to see my best friend, Tatum Paxley, following the footsteps and finally crown herself champion.
38:15A lot easier said than done, because Tatum Paxley is going up against JC Jane for that Women's title at Halloween Havoc.
38:22And of course, backed by Fatal Influence, Tatum Paxley backed by The Culling, something we'll certainly have to give in that one.
38:28And Lyra will be there in spirit.
38:30It'll certainly be there in spirit.
38:31You have to imagine Vic, again, just so ecstatic for her friend Tatum Paxley, and this huge opportunity tonight to finally get over that hump and win some championship goals.
38:39You know, it might be good for Lyra as well, because it's putting those good feelings out of the atmosphere, out of the universe, so to speak.
38:44So it'll be interesting to see what sort of Lyra Valkyria comes out here tonight as we see a young member of the WWE Universe getting ready for Halloween as well.
38:54Everyone looking to collect a feather here for Lyra tonight, except for that superstar, is the Pitbull looking to reverse course.
39:00And of course, Nick, you talked about the Creed Brothers.
39:02We saw Ivy recently ringside with the Creeds, but you almost have to wonder, does she need to focus more on her own success?
39:08That is, that's a good question.
39:11It's also a loaded question as well, because all three came in at the same time in NXT, created a great bond.
39:18But I go back to things that Booker T tells me on Tuesday.
39:22This is a selfish business.
39:23So a part of your statement is correct.
39:25Maybe Ivy does need to do that, because she has shown the ability to rise to the occasion.
39:30She hasn't been able to step through the door yet, but I do think she's on the cusp of doing so.
39:34And now cover.
39:35Pity combination, as Lyra tries to end this one very quickly, of course.
39:38And a victory over Lyra Valkyria would be a huge step in the right direction for Ivy now.
39:43Indeed, as Ivy's defeated Natalya Maxine a couple of times here on Main Event,
39:47and she's really looking to break through that next level.
39:49A win over the inaugural Women's Intercontinental Champion would certainly do that.
39:52And my heart breaks for Maxine Dupree, because we're talking about the host submission.
39:55Ivy looking to flatten that arm here very quickly.
39:57Nice counter.
39:58Nice.
39:59As these two looking to exchange some pinfalls right out of the gate.
40:01Ivy into the cover yet again, and again only one.
40:03My heart breaks for Maxine Dupree, who is so close to that Women's Intercontinental Championship this past Monday on Raw,
40:08but it was a shortcut taken by Becky Lynch.
40:11I think that just shows you that Becky may be a little bit scared of Maxine Dupree.
40:17That's certainly a whole other story for another day.
40:19And, of course, Becky Lynch is the superstar that Lyra Valkyria did defeat for the NXT Women's Championship a couple years ago at Halloween Havoc,
40:25as Ivy Nile looking to show off that power and strength.
40:28We know she's right at the top of the women's division.
40:30She certainly is, and look, she can't have a setback tonight.
40:33That's why every match is so important here on Main Event.
40:37And Lyra Valkyria now with that big hip toss, and you saw Ivy go right into the corner.
40:41I wonder if that might have jolted that lower back, maybe the hip of Ivy now, because Lyra trying to stay in control.
40:47As Lyra lands on her feet, sweeps the leg, and Lyra!
40:51Combination offense remaining in control right here.
40:54Of course, we talk about that friendship with Tatum Paxley.
40:56Maybe a little bit of jealousy there from the Cullings' Izzy Dame as well.
40:59I don't disagree with you there, but look, I'm going to save that for Halloween Havoc.
41:03Oh, as Lyra looking to dial it up.
41:05Nice scouting here by Ivy Nile going right to work on that arm, which we've already seen.
41:11Trying to take out Lyra with a submission.
41:13And for Ivy, this is that killer instinct that she has developed over the last several months.
41:16When she first came in, I don't want to say it was happy to be here, but a big kick right to the elbow.
41:32WrestleMania 41 was the most successful WrestleMania in history.
41:37We shattered every record from attendance to viewership, so we're running it back to the sports and entertainment capital of the world.
41:46I had a dream, I had a vision, I had to work for this, and you did it.
41:54It's time to double down, Las Vegas.
41:57WrestleMania returns in 2026.
42:01Are you ready?
42:03Yeah, you can't stop this.
42:06Yeah, you can't stop this.
42:10Now get me off of this thing.
42:12Back here on main event, Halloween Havoc Saturday as Ivy Nile taking it right to Lyra Valkyria right here.
42:22I've been really impressed with Ivy Nile.
42:25I mean, this is a different side of her.
42:27She has been ferocious, she has been vicious, and she has found a body part.
42:30She's exploited that body part, and now she is systematically dissecting Lyra Valkyria.
42:35And this certainly would be a statement win for the Pitbull.
42:39Left arm and shoulder been the target right here from Ivy Nile as Lyra trying to fight back with one arm, essentially, right here.
42:43And it's smart of Ivy because how could she hit that Nightwing if she can't lift Ivy up?
42:48Very true there as Ivy now putting on the brakes, using that power to her advantage in again and going right back to that shoulder, Vic.
42:54Not only that, also, we know how Ivy likes to use that arm breaker.
42:57She tried to get it really early in this matchup, so she is softening up right now.
43:01Lyra Valkyria, which goes back to the education from Chad Gable, how to see a weakness and exploit it.
43:07And that is what Ivy Nile is doing now.
43:08As we're approaching two years since Ivy Nile's been on the Monday Night Raw roster, been in Royal Rumbles, various qualifying opportunities.
43:15Vic, these tastes have certainly motivated Ivy over the last couple of years.
43:18I think it motivates anybody that's coming from NXT.
43:20I mean, that is what NXT is all about.
43:22It's about becoming the future.
43:23She's trying to show that every single match she's had, every single opportunity has been building for a moment.
43:29And we could be seeing that next step in that moment for Ivy Nile right here, right now.
43:34As we certainly know, a huge opportunity on the horizon up next.
43:37We see who will become the number one contender for the World Heavyweight Championship.
43:41Who's going to take on Sia Pup at Saturday night's main event?
43:45Monday night was absolute chaos.
43:47I feel bad for the general manager, Adam Pearce, but he did what needed to be done.
43:51He said all the right things, he moved forward, and we're going to relive what took place this past Monday in an over-the-top rope battle royal.
43:59The landscape will certainly change again, and of course, even better.
44:02Vic, CM Punk joining Joe Tess and Wade in the booth.
44:06Punk's the best in the world at everything.
44:08Indeed he is.
44:09Certainly been here on main event before as well.
44:11As Lyra right now, maybe looking for that night wing.
44:14As Ivy...
44:14The arm, the arm, the arm.
44:15Look at Ivy.
44:16She stretched that arm right back up.
44:18Zeroing in, and Ivy going right back to the attack.
44:21Hammer lock now, and looking almost for that submission.
44:25Well, she has that arm perfectly bent.
44:27Lyra doing her best right now to not let that left elbow bend, and now trying to overcome that Fujiwara-style arm bar as Ivy just locking in.
44:36How long can Lyra stay on her feet?
44:38I don't know if she's trying to maybe lock in a Kimura, what she's trying to lock in exactly, but she's doing her best to counter, and Lyra doing her best to overpower.
44:46Doesn't have full strength in that left arm, but it's enough to get her up and over.
44:50And she's feeding off the energy right now of the WWE Universe.
44:53Channeling the spirit of the Morgan right here is Lyra Valkyria.
44:57Trying to welcome in the punishment is Lyra.
44:59You see her holding that left arm in.
45:01She's doing work right now.
45:03That combination offense yet again.
45:05Starting to cut right here for Lyra.
45:07Step up in Seguri, proving I don't need my arms when I got these feet.
45:11Lyra certainly established a lot, becoming the inaugural Women's Intercontinental Champion.
45:15Looking to continue that legacy right here, as Lyra takes the offense to the outside now.
45:21Starting to roll.
45:21Might be looking for Nightwing very soon.
45:23And also be trying to block out some pain right now, and again, motivation for Lyra Valkyria.
45:29Adrenaline will make anyone do crazy things, and she's able to block out the pain.
45:33As Lyra might be looking to fly, but Ivy yet again, very resourceful, rolling the apron.
45:38As Valkyria shifts her sights now to Ivy Nile on the outside.
45:42And Ivy again, targeting that shoulder.
45:45Great job here by the pit bull.
45:48And now Ivy, from the apron, might be looking for that dragon sleeper, but flips over.
45:54Wow.
45:54Bit of a chin checker right there.
45:56This could be an upset.
45:56It's the leg.
45:58And the pit bull right on the cusp yet again.
46:00Seeing new strokes of genius from Ivy Nile in this matchup, diving deep into the playbook, so to speak.
46:08Target acquired from the pit bull.
46:11Ivy from one corner to the other.
46:12Goes for the big boot.
46:14Nice job by Lyra.
46:15Evade it.
46:15Oh!
46:16The heck was that?
46:17Might have been going for a pity combination there, Vic, but just drops Valkyria, rather, Nile.
46:22But that might have benefited Lyra.
46:24Right into position here.
46:25Nightwing!
46:26Wing!
46:28Oh!
46:29Reversal!
46:29Ivy!
46:30Pity combination back the other way!
46:32Two!
46:33What an exchange here, Vic!
46:35Back and forth!
46:36Big spinning heel kick for the jaw!
46:38As Valkyria thought she had the door shut.
46:41Ivy!
46:42I just go back to the strength in the arm right now.
46:46And she might be trying to gain some strength here.
46:48All throughout this process, Lyra rolls through.
46:50Oh!
46:51Right into fire, but scary position!
46:53Look at the strength here, Vic!
46:54Excuse me!
46:55Taking a page and a Niles playbook!
46:58Nightwing!
46:59And adding a feather to Lyra's collection!
47:03Here is your winner, Lyra Valkyria!
47:09Certainly pushed to the limit by the Pitbull.
47:12But Lyra Valkyria comes out on top.
47:15Let's take another look here, Vic.
47:16Look at the power and strength of Lyra.
47:17I questioned the strength, I was wrong.
47:20Lyra Valkyria, bam!
47:22Able to overcome every obstacle here on Main Event.
47:27We saw several counters in this matchup, but at the end of it, Lyra Valkyria picks up the win.
47:31The WWE Universe was treated to an instant classic, courtesy of Sami Zayn's United States Championship Open Challenge last week on SmackDown.
47:43After Carmelo Hayes scored the attempt of The Miz, the WWE Universe was shocked when the Mad Dragon himself, Ilya Dragunov, returned to accept the challenge.
47:53Back in action after being sidelined for over a year due to a knee injury.
47:57Dragunov answered the call, making an unforgettable statement.
48:01Lyra put on a show-stealing performance and shocked the world by defeating Zayn to capture the United States Championship for the first time in his career.
48:13Here is your winner and new United States Champion!
48:20Ilya Dragunov!
48:30After witnessing Ilya Dragunov capture the U.S. title on SmackDown, the bar has been set high.
48:36But over on Raw, the race for another prize, the World Heavyweight Championship, is just getting started.
48:42With Seth Freak and Rollins forced to vacate the title, General Manager Adam Pearce has ordered a high-stakes battle royal
48:47for the opportunity to challenge CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship at Saturday night's main event.
48:54They will punch their ticket to Salt Lake City and earn their shot at the best in the world.
48:59The battle to crown the next World Heavyweight Champion begins next!
49:02When things get very tough, Tripp Williams is gonna fall under pressure.
49:21What a moment for Tatum Paxley!
49:25Tag team match it right here, here we go!
49:28Anything can happen, we're at Halloween Havish!
49:32Saturday morning cartoons are back!
49:41Full episodes of the animated classic Hulk Hogan's Rockin' Wrestling are now available on the WWE Vault YouTube channel.
49:48Episodes post first thing Saturday morning.
49:51So head to youtube.com slash WWEvault to enjoy every episode from the series and more nostalgic WWE archive content.
49:59Here's a look at the classic.
50:01I think I'll check and see how Captain Lou's doing.
50:06How you coming, Captain?
50:08Captain Lou?
50:09You okay?
50:11Whoa!
50:12Tito, look at that.
50:14With all the dirt washed off him, Captain Lou looks just like the Hulkster.
50:18I am the Hulkster.
50:21And where's Captain Lou?
50:22If I were you, I'd check behind the shower curtain.
50:27I'm having a hard time understanding this.
50:30Okay.
50:30We came here with the World Heavyweight Championship tonight.
50:33Right.
50:35That was taken from us.
50:36Right.
50:37And now, we don't even have a spot in the Battle Royal for the World Heavyweight Championship that belongs to us.
50:44Okay.
50:44So, please.
50:48Help us out.
50:49I don't.
50:53There was this rookie in 2002.
50:56A rookie named Brock Lesnar.
50:59He could have eaten through the entire roster in his very first night.
51:04But he didn't.
51:05But he didn't.
51:05He listened to me.
51:06And five months later, he was up against The Rock, who he beat for the title.
51:12There was this best-in'-the-world rebel in 2012 who was such a pain in the ass backstage that they were going to throw him out the door as champion after 100 days.
51:25But he listened to me, and he got 434 days out of that title reign.
51:30Because he listened to me, how many WrestleMania main events did the big dog Roman Reigns get?
51:36Who remembers the big dog?
51:38But I made him the Tribal Chief, and he listened to me, and everyone remembers the title reign of the Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns.
51:49It's not just about who you can slaughter.
51:54It's about the backstage maneuverings and the politics that go along with it.
51:58You want to see the vision of the future of WWE?
52:04The two of you should just look in the mirror.
52:06That's the future of WWE.
52:09With Braun Breaker and Big Bronson Reed fuming, we head back to the ring, where the passionate fans inside the Golden One Center witnessed an electrifying World Heavyweight Championship, number one contender's Battle Royal, last Monday on Raw.
52:25Well, six men left at this point.
52:28It really is the Usos have been working as a team.
52:30Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
52:30Throughout this thing, AJ almost has eliminated.
52:33Wow, Jimmy Uso just saving his brother Jay from elimination.
52:37If they keep going that way, one of those two is going to win this thing and head on to Saturday night's main event.
52:43But apparently, the rest of this field has something to say about that, including LA Knight, who's been quiet so far in this one, but has managed to survive to the final six.
52:53Yeah, he's still in it, and if anybody's at a disadvantage right now, it's got to be AJ and Dirty Dom, both had contests earlier in the night.
53:02You know they're tired.
53:03Yeah, Battle Royal's always an endurance affair, and these six have got to all be running on fumes at this point.
53:10It's a great point of analysis considering the night that they've pulled back.
53:13Kofi Kingston looks to provide some offense here against AJ Styles.
53:18AJ Styles who took gold earlier tonight.
53:21Yeah, listen.
53:22As an athlete, Kofi gets unceremoniously dumped over the top rope, on the apron, battling with AJ Styles.
53:28You know, a guy like AJ Styles, you don't want to be that athlete that warms up, has a match, and then cools down.
53:35And then you've got to warm up again, but if anybody can do it, it's the phenomenal one who just eliminated Kofi Kingston.
53:44So creative, digging deep into his veteran playbook is AJ Styles, but he looks spent on the floor.
53:51It's now LA Knight with all of the Kvorka.
53:55Are your loins tingling pink?
53:57Are your loins?
53:57Please tell me no.
53:58Please tell me no.
53:59Well, mine certainly aren't.
54:00Mine aren't.
54:02Whoa.
54:02Thankfully.
54:03Speaking of tingling loins, what do you call the new tag team champions?
54:07Is it the tag team of AJ Lee?
54:09Ooh, that tickles my loins.
54:13That's really good.
54:15Come on, people with joints.
54:16Ooh, it was the BFT.
54:17He was looking for the BFT, but AJ able to put him in position for a Styles Clash potentially.
54:24No.
54:25Knight wiggles out of it.
54:26This is just scrambling time.
54:29Fight tooth and nail.
54:31Now look at this guy.
54:31This guy's putting a submission hold on and a battle royale.
54:34Maybe I want him to win now.
54:36Oh, left himself wide open.
54:396-1-9.
54:406-1-9.
54:41Nope.
54:43Whoa.
54:44That is dangerous for Jey Uso.
54:47Jey clinging on for dear life here.
54:49And one shot, maybe two shots here from LA Knight could drop.
54:54Jey Uso.
54:54We, yeah, we, yeah, we, yeah, we, yeah.
54:59The big yeah battle in Sacramento.
55:03And the yeah's are winning.
55:04Yeah, the yeah's getting the best of it.
55:06Look at Jey on the cliff's edge.
55:10One of only two former world champs left in this match alongside AJ Styles.
55:14And Jey may be about to drop.
55:20Oh!
55:22Jimmy helps him out again.
55:24That is the second time Jey Uso who looks completely spent at this point.
55:31Blood is thicker than water, but is blood more important than the heavyweight championship?
55:36Well, Jimmy's made up his mind.
55:37It is like AJ, AJ's stalking.
55:42Long distance and double superkicks.
55:45And just that fatigue perhaps starting to kick in on AJ.
55:48It was just a beat too slow.
55:49Oh, there he goes.
55:51Eliminated.
55:51That's big.
55:52That is huge.
55:54So now CM Punk, you understand what's in front of you.
55:58It is down to four.
56:00Oh, the muscle, the power of LA Knight.
56:04Not quite enough to put big gym away.
56:06Oh, Knight.
56:07Big Jim and Knight wrapped up over the top rope.
56:11What is Jey doing?
56:13Oh.
56:15His brother saved him twice.
56:20Well, that's what Roman Reigns is trying to tell Jey Uso.
56:24All along, he has to be cut through.
56:28Eliminating his own brother, but watch out for Dirty Dom.
56:31And now Dirty Dom has Jey lined up.
56:35Oh, but it's not in a six right now.
56:37It's a Jey Uso victory.
56:40Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the Battle Royale, main event, Jey Uso.
56:50Listen, Jey just won an opportunity to wrestle CM Punk for the Heavyweight Championship, but for my money, the story is the brothers right here.
57:00Jimmy spent the entire Battle Royale saving Jey, and Jey just dumped him over the top rope.
57:06That man, former champion himself, he's cut broke.
57:10He's got what it takes.
57:11I've got my work cut out for me.
57:13That is the matchup.
57:14It is set.
57:15But that is the big takeaway, Wade Barrett.
57:18Two times, Jimmy came to the aid of Jey in this Battle Royale.
57:23But when it was on the line, Jey dumped Jimmy onto the floor.
57:27Well, that is exactly what Roman Reigns has been trying to implant in the mind of Jey Uso as an irate Big Jim yells at his twin brother, who effectively stabbed him in the back in the closing moments of this match.
57:42You need a killer instant if you want to be at the top.
57:46He didn't stab anybody in the back.
57:47That is the name of the game.
57:48One man wins.
57:50I don't care if it's 30 men, 40 men, 20 men, whatever it is.
57:53One person gets the shot.
57:56Punk, let's go back and show everybody exactly what you guys are talking about.
57:59This was the save by Jimmy earlier when Jey was on the apron, nearly defeated.
58:05And he regrets it right now.
58:06I guarantee it.
58:07Jey was banged to rights there.
58:09He was practically eliminated, saved by Big Jim.
58:13And when Big Jim needed that brotherly favor replay, and this was after eliminating AJ Styles, a tussle on the ropes with LA Knight, Jey Uso saw his path to victory open up.
58:29And despite Dirty Dom's attempt to ruin the Jey Uso party, it was in fact main event Jey Uso,
58:36who will presumably be main eventing Saturday night's main event against the other number one contender, that man in the background, C.M. Punk.
58:47And there it is.
58:48And that is what set two men who know what it means to have had the World Heavyweight Championship.
58:55Those two men will now meet for it.
58:58Saturday night's main event in 12 days from Salt Lake City.
59:03That is the hottest ticket around with those two.
59:06And it just became for desire.
59:10Jey Uso wins the number one contender's Battle Royal.
59:15He will face C.M. Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship.
59:20How about that?
59:21So let's have a look.
59:22Yeah.
59:33Bye-bye.
59:38Bye.
59:39Bye-bye.
59:40Bye.
59:44Bye.
59:48Bye.
59:49Bye.
59:50Bye.
