00:01:01to all of those McMahon family grandchildren.
00:01:07Oh, it sounds like one McMahon has heard enough!
00:01:10You're out here running your mouth,
00:01:12threatening me, threatening my family.

00:01:55I guarantee that you won't make it
00:01:58to the six-man match at Backlash
00:02:01when I permanently put you down.
00:02:06You may permanently put me down,
00:02:09but, Randy,
00:02:13maybe you won't!
00:02:22Wait a minute! No!
00:02:26Look at this sick look.
00:02:29Randy Orton has said all along
00:02:31that his goal is to destroy the McMahon family.
00:02:35You won't make it to Backlash
00:02:38when I permanently put you down.
00:02:41Wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:02:42No, no, not again.
00:02:44Not again.
00:02:47This is McMahon's son, Shane.
00:02:49Shane pummeling Orton.
00:02:51And here comes the rest of Legacy.
00:02:54Legacy can destroy two parts of the McMahon family
00:02:57in one night.
00:03:00Here comes the game.
00:03:01The game exploding.
00:03:03Triple H shredded Orton.
00:03:05This is like WrestleMania all over again.
00:03:07Oh, look at this.
00:03:08Dibiase and Rhodes.
00:03:10Orton wants to punish Triple H.
00:03:13Triple H is in real trouble now.
00:03:17Real trouble now.
00:03:21Oh, my!
00:03:23It's Batista!
00:03:25Batista is back!
00:03:30Batista with a spear!
00:03:32And Legacy being picked apart by Batista.
00:03:36Oh, Batista ball!
00:03:39Hey, Orton, you're right.
00:03:41I'm not gonna make it to Backlash.
00:03:43Taking my place is gonna be hell!
00:03:47Batista!
00:03:53Batista!
00:04:23What if I give up?
00:04:24Oh, oh, oh.
00:04:25What if I give in?
00:04:26I just wanna be, wanna be loved.
00:04:46Tonight, lives and careers of WWE superstars will change forever.
00:04:51Welcome to Monday Night Raw, welcome to the 2009 WWE Draft.
00:04:57From the Phillips Arena in Atlanta, I'm Michael Cole, here's Jerry the King Lawler, representing
00:05:01Raw, and I can tell you from a personal standpoint, the draft will change your life.
00:05:05Oh, well that's right, all three brands are going to be represented.
00:05:08Superstars from those brands will compete in interpromotional matches.
00:05:11Whoever wins their match, earns a draft pick for their brand.
00:05:15And here from SmackDown, Hall of Famer Jim Ross and Todd Grisham.
00:05:18Thank you, gentlemen.
00:05:19You know in the National Football League Draft, it's the team with the most losses that's
00:05:23rewarded, but here in the WWE, it's all about winning, isn't it?
00:05:26It's all about winning.
00:05:27This is the most powerfully pivotal night of the calendar year for the WWE.
00:05:33Well, we mentioned all three brands were here tonight, and representing ECW, here's Josh
00:05:37Matthews and Matt Stryker.
00:05:39Matt, after tonight, absolutely nothing will be the same in the WWE.
00:05:43Everyone is eligible to be drafted absolutely anywhere.
00:05:47History has shown us that this is the most unpredictable night in the WWE calendar.
00:05:52Welcome to the WWE Draft.
00:05:54Well, one thing is for sure, one of the most unpredictable matches in the WWE is the Battle
00:05:59Royal.
00:06:00And tonight, 15 superstars divided by three brands will compete for two draft picks in
00:06:05one match.
00:06:06Which brand will reign supreme?
00:06:09And what about this?
00:06:11It's Raw versus ECW.
00:06:13Champion versus champion.
00:06:14That's right.
00:06:15Jack Swagger from ECW takes on John Cena from Raw, and it's two draft picks at stake in
00:06:21that big match.
00:06:46Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Batista!
00:06:52Batista is back!
00:06:5616,431 WWE fans on their feet for the animal, Batista.
00:07:05And we now know with backlash, Batista will join the team of Shane McMahon and Triple
00:07:09H to take on the three members of Legacy.
00:07:13And Triple H's WWE title is on the line.
00:07:17And did you see the look on the faces of the three members of Legacy?
00:07:21I did.
00:07:22I saw it.
00:07:23I saw it.
00:07:24I saw it.
00:07:25I saw it.
00:07:26I saw it.
00:07:27I saw it.
00:07:28I saw it.
00:07:29I saw it.
00:07:30I saw it.
00:07:31I saw it.
00:07:32I saw it.
00:07:33The three members of Legacy when the animal was announced as one of their opponents.
00:07:37If Triple H's team wins, Triple H will retain the WWE championship.
00:07:42If Orton's team wins, Randy Orton will become WWE champion.
00:07:54There's a sea of people here tonight.
00:08:00It's draft night.
00:08:04And Batista soaking it all in.
00:08:09And it's been so long since the animal was here on Raw.
00:08:24This place is electric.
00:08:34Oh.
00:08:51I think Batista is overwhelmed to be back on Raw.
00:08:55And the fans are welcoming him back.
00:08:57Oh.
00:08:59I can't even.
00:09:01I can't even tell you how good it feels to be back.
00:09:11Let me tell you, I miss you guys way more than you miss me.
00:09:17It took me almost four months to get back in this ring.
00:09:22And the one thing that drove me was retribution for this.
00:09:31It was indeed four months ago on Raw.
00:09:33Batista in control in a two-on-three handicap match.
00:09:35Teeny with John Cena versus Orton and company.
00:09:38And then, look at that.
00:09:39Out of nowhere, Orton hits Batista with an RKO.
00:09:42John Cena was tied up outside the ring.
00:09:44Orton with the RKO.
00:09:46Orton with the RKO.
00:09:47Orton with the RKO.
00:09:48Orton with the RKO.
00:09:49John Cena was tied up outside the ring.
00:09:51And then, Randy Orton would strike.
00:09:55Oh, my gosh.
00:09:57Delicious punt to the side of Batista's head.
00:10:03Oh.
00:10:04A punt that would cost Batista four months of his career.
00:10:07Oh, my gosh.
00:10:19I've replayed that in my head every day for the last four months.
00:10:26Over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.
00:10:31It's all I could think about.
00:10:37And the worst part was waiting.
00:10:42Just sitting around.
00:10:43Just waiting.
00:10:45Counting the days.
00:10:46Counting the hours.
00:10:47Counting the minutes.
00:10:48Counting the seconds.
00:10:49Waiting to get my hands on Randy Orton.
00:10:58I'm tired of waiting.
00:11:00I'm back.
00:11:05No more waiting.
00:11:06So, Orton, stop being a little punk and get out here and face me like a man.
00:11:17And if you don't, I will tear apart every inch of this arena to find you.
00:11:25Oh.
00:11:28Come on.
00:11:34Come on.
00:11:37Come on.
00:11:40Fine.
00:11:41Have it your way.
00:11:44Here comes the money.
00:11:46Here we go.
00:11:48Here comes the money.
00:11:50Well, this is not exactly Randy Orton.
00:11:53Shane McMahon.
00:11:54Yeah, better than Orton and Shane O'Mac.
00:12:00Remember, these two will be teammates at Backlash in a couple of weeks.
00:12:07Yeah.
00:12:18All right.
00:12:19Shane McMahon will team with Batista and Triple H.
00:12:25First off, welcome back.
00:12:28But I need not remind you that it was with malicious intent that Randy Orton
00:12:34tried to separate my head from my shoulders just like he did you.
00:12:40But he also did it to my father.
00:12:42And the physicality that he did to my sister is so reprehensible,
00:12:46I do not have the words to describe what I want to do to Randy Orton.
00:12:53So if anybody's getting retribution tonight, Dave, it's me.
00:13:05You got to do it.
00:13:08Look, I want him so bad.
00:13:10What?
00:13:20It looks like someone else has something to say.
00:13:23The WWE Champion, Triple H.
00:13:29Shane's brother-in-law.
00:13:35And just as a reminder, these three superstars you're looking at
00:13:40will face all the members of Legacy.
00:13:43And it'll be Triple H's championship.
00:13:55Shane, you got to understand something here.
00:14:00The reason for all of this, all this stuff with Orton,
00:14:06everything that's gone down with your dad, with you,
00:14:09it's all because of me.
00:14:13Randy Orton trying to get to me.
00:14:16It's all my fault.
00:14:18Randy Orton trying to get to this.
00:14:22And here's the thing, Dave, with all due respect to you
00:14:26and everything that Orton has done to you and put you through,
00:14:31Randy Orton tried to take out my wife.
00:14:38He tried to take out the mother of my kids while I watched.
00:14:49This is all because of me.
00:14:51This is all because of me.
00:14:53I started it, and I am damn well gonna finish it.
00:15:00I'm not asking you.
00:15:03I'm telling you.
00:15:05Randy Orton is mine.
00:15:16Excuse me!
00:15:18Excuse me!
00:15:21Excuse me!
00:15:30Excuse me!
00:15:32Excuse me!
00:15:40The only person who will determine if and when anyone will face Orton
00:15:50will be the new General Manager of RAW.
00:15:59Now the three of you will have your chance at revenge against Orton
00:16:06when you team up and face Legacy
00:16:09in a six-man tag team championship match at Backlash.
00:16:16Excuse me!
00:16:25Now may I remind you that if you are going to be overzealous in that match,
00:16:34just like you are tonight, you could possibly be counted out or disqualified,
00:16:40which means that Randy Orton could be the new WWE Champion.
00:16:55Now if the three of you want a piece of Orton before Backlash,
00:17:01I have an opportunity, but it's just for one of you.
00:17:05Now Randy Orton is here tonight, but I have given him a well-deserved night off.
00:17:19So tonight, we will have a three-on-two handicap match.
00:17:27The three of you will team up and face Cody Rhodes
00:17:31The three of you will team up and face Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase.
00:17:40If Team Legacy wins, no one will face Randy Orton.
00:17:46But if your team wins, the one who scores the pinfall
00:17:51will earn a one-on-one match next week against Randy Orton.
00:17:56Gentlemen, thank you for your time and good luck.
00:18:26The 2009 WWE Draft begins live next.
00:18:29RAW is prep-taking Rey Mysterio vs. ECW's high-octane high-flyer Evan Boer.
00:18:34Who will earn the draft's first pick? Who will get drafted?
00:18:37Is there going to be a mid-air collision?
00:18:39We're going to find out. It's Mysterio vs. Boer live next.
00:18:47This is cable TV's most-watched show.
00:18:49Monday Night RAW is live tonight in beautiful Atlanta, Georgia.
00:18:53And inside Phillips Arena here in Atlanta, 16,431 fans have jam-packed the place.
00:19:01See you this Monday Night RAW.
00:19:07The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:19:09And it is for the number one pick in the 2009 WWE Draft.
00:19:23Whoa!
00:19:26All right!
00:19:28Right out of the chute, representing RAW!
00:19:33Kind of like RAW chances in this match-up.
00:19:36Rey Mysterio!
00:19:40Introducing first, from San Diego, California, weighing in at 175 pounds,
00:19:46he is the Intercontinental Champion,
00:19:49Rey Mysterio!
00:19:51And for the first time in his career, Rey Mysterio wearing the Intercontinental Championship
00:19:55back at the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania.
00:19:57Rey Mysterio made history.
00:19:59He beat JBL at WrestleMania for the title.
00:20:02Yeah, you know, we had heard all along that JBL was going to do something historic.
00:20:06Well, he did.
00:20:07He lost in fast fashion.
00:20:09And then he quit!
00:20:10Yeah, JBL quit at WrestleMania.
00:20:13But for Rey Mysterio tonight,
00:20:16But for Rey Mysterio tonight,
00:20:18a win in this match-up would ensure RAW the first draft pick for this year's draft.
00:20:26And representing ECW, from St. Louis, Missouri, weighing in at 183 pounds,
00:20:33Evan Bourne!
00:20:36Evan Bourne is compelling and progressive.
00:20:39And here we go, Matt Stryker, an opportunity for ECW to earn the first pick
00:20:44in the 2009 draft.
00:20:46The exhilarating, pulse-pounding, chronically high-flying Evan Bourne.
00:20:51You have my word, you are about to be entertained.
00:20:55I can't wait for this match-up.
00:20:56It is going to be exciting.
00:20:57It's sensational and amazing.
00:20:59Rey Mysterio and, of course, Evan Bourne,
00:21:01who you guys have had the pleasure to see on ECW each and every week.
00:21:04Two superstars representing individual brands will collide.
00:21:08The winning brand gets a random lottery draft pick from one of the other two brands.
00:21:12So a lot at stake here tonight, gentlemen.
00:21:14And, Kane, let me ask you, is this match important to build momentum
00:21:17for the rest of this very special 3-hour broadcast?
00:21:19Well, I would think so.
00:21:20You know, Rey Mysterio or Evan Bourne,
00:21:22they don't want to lose and let their respective brand down.
00:21:25Nobody wants to do that here tonight.
00:21:27Well, don't blink, or you might miss something amazing from these two men.
00:21:30Whoa.
00:21:33Here it comes already.
00:21:34Great exchange right off the bat by both Bourne and Mysterio.
00:21:38Both of these superstars, hang on,
00:21:40proficient in both lucha libre and puro reto styles.
00:21:44Kane, you wonder if the familiarity of styles might lead to some interesting counters.
00:21:48Uh-oh.
00:21:49I think we've seen a couple of them already.
00:21:52Mysterio with that great balance.
00:21:54But Evan Bourne went for the sunset flip up over the top rope.
00:21:57Mysterio countered.
00:21:58I believe that's the veteran instinct of Rey Mysterio.
00:22:01Ooh.
00:22:02Wow.
00:22:04Ooh.
00:22:06That's drop toe hold by the intercontinental champion.
00:22:09How about the fact that all the flying is negated by a simple drop toe hold
00:22:13into the unforgiving barricade.
00:22:15Man, I hope Evan Bourne didn't break his neck.
00:22:19Watch this and listen.
00:22:20Ooh.
00:22:22Allows Mysterio to take advantage.
00:22:24First fall of the matchup.
00:22:25Near fall, perhaps and a kick out by Evan Bourne.
00:22:27Remember, the winner of this match will get the first pick,
00:22:30a random pick, in the 2009 WWE draft.
00:22:33Well, you know, Matt, I've heard all the accolades that you've given Evan Bourne
00:22:37for all his high flying prowess.
00:22:39But just the fact that he kicked out after what happened to him impressed me.
00:22:44Oh.
00:22:45Mysterio.
00:22:46Believe it.
00:22:47His hand or wrist caught Bourne in the back of the skull.
00:22:49Here's a cover for Bourne.
00:22:51And Mysterio kicks out at two.
00:22:53Well, there was your midair collision, Michael.
00:22:55And all the energy that Rey Mysterio brings to Monday nights
00:22:59is what Evan Bourne brings to ECW on SyFy every single Tuesday night.
00:23:04Both these superstars so innovative.
00:23:07High energy brought to the ring.
00:23:09You guys think we'll see a shooting star press tonight from Evan Bourne?
00:23:12If we do, ECW's getting the first draft pick.
00:23:14Well, if we see a 619, the draft pick's coming to Raw.
00:23:20Mysterio throughout his career has been the ultimate undertaker.
00:23:23And former world champion planted by Bourne.
00:23:27Standing moonsault cover.
00:23:29Hooks the leg again and a kickout by Mysterio.
00:23:32Michael, you've seen a lot.
00:23:34Has anyone ever matched Rey Mysterio's style in the same vein as Evan Air Bourne?
00:23:38No, not over my years.
00:23:40Oh, and Mysterio.
00:23:42Again, Bourne took a little too much time in the veteran Rey Mysterio counter.
00:23:45I mean, you know, you guys are right.
00:23:47We're so proud and amazed constantly at the talent of Rey Mysterio here on Raw.
00:23:53Wow.
00:23:54Evan Bourne is ECW's version of Rey Mysterio.
00:23:57Mysterio capitalized.
00:23:58Hooks the leg.
00:23:59He got him.
00:24:00No.
00:24:01Did he get him?
00:24:02Bourne kicked out again.
00:24:03Every week we see what Evan Bourne has in the tank.
00:24:05And every week we are more and more surprised by what Evan Bourne can handle inside that ring.
00:24:10Come out of nowhere.
00:24:11Sudden explosiveness.
00:24:13Look at this.
00:24:14Uh-oh.
00:24:15Rey picking up the phone.
00:24:17He's in trouble here.
00:24:19619 connecting.
00:24:21Rey Mysterio trying to bring one home for Monday Night Raw.
00:24:26The splash.
00:24:28Hooks the leg.
00:24:30Monday Night Raw gets the first pick in the 2009 draft.
00:24:35Here is your winner, Rey Mysterio.
00:24:39Wow, what a match.
00:24:40I could watch that for about an hour or two, maybe three.
00:24:42Rey Mysterio picking up the win.
00:24:44And the question now is, who's going to make a new home here on Monday night?
00:24:49Well, let's find out who the first draft pick is.
00:24:57I love this time of year.
00:24:59Who's coming to Raw?
00:25:01Wow.
00:25:17The United States Champion.
00:25:19MVP.
00:25:20Is coming to Raw for Friday Night SmackDown.
00:25:24The trash talking, confidence.
00:25:27Highest paid superstar in SmackDown history is coming to Monday Night.
00:25:34And there he is.
00:25:39Monday Night Raw may have a new most valuable player.
00:25:42Better make the locker room bigger for his ego.
00:25:45I'm coming.
00:25:47Nobody can stop me.
00:25:48Nobody can hold me.
00:25:49Nobody can control me.
00:25:51I'm coming.
00:25:52Great pick.
00:25:55Ladies and gentlemen, the star of Raw, Triple H, Matisse, and Shane
00:25:57made no bones about how badly they want Randy Orton.
00:26:00Tonight those three beat Legacy in a three on two handicap match.
00:26:04And the tag or the team member that scored the pitfall against Rhodes and
00:26:08DiBiase will get to face Randy Orton next week on Raw.
00:26:11However, if Legacy wins, Orton doesn't face anyone.
00:26:14That match will be later tonight.
00:26:26I am so excited about being the new General Manager of Raw.
00:26:30I mean, I have so much support from the WWE Board of Directors.
00:26:34I mean, Chavo, this is a new star for me.
00:26:37It's a great opportunity.
00:26:38I mean, not just for you, but for everyone.
00:26:41Take a walk.
00:26:43Chavo.
00:26:44Chavo.
00:26:45Chavo.
00:26:46Chavo.
00:26:47Chavo.
00:26:48Chavo.
00:26:49Chavo.
00:26:50Chavo.
00:26:51Chavo.
00:26:52Chavo.
00:26:53Chavo.
00:26:54Take a walk, Chavo.
00:26:56No.
00:26:58Chavo stays.
00:27:01What do you want, Randy?
00:27:02What the hell were you thinking out there earlier, Vickie?
00:27:05Please tell me that if Triple H wins tonight,
00:27:08next week the title will be on the line.
00:27:11No.
00:27:12Back off.
00:27:13You are unbelievable.
00:27:14On SmackDown, you might have been able to do everything you wanted,
00:27:17but this is Monday night Raw.
00:27:19As Raw General Manager, the same Board of Directors that put you in that position,
00:27:23they're watching your every move.
00:27:24I've been here longer than you, and I can tell you, Vickie Guerrero,
00:27:27that they will not be happy.
00:27:30I don't know who you think you are.
00:27:31Shut up.
00:27:32Wait a minute.
00:27:33I have been entrusted to make fair decisions.
00:27:37So, if Rhodes and DiBiase win tonight, whoever they defeat,
00:27:44they will have to face Olive Legacy in a three-on-one match next week.
00:27:50Wait.
00:27:51No, no.
00:27:52No.
00:27:53No, no, no.
00:27:54Just give me a second.
00:27:55Give me a second.
00:27:56I'm good.
00:27:57I'm good.
00:27:58Just give me a second.
00:27:59The champ is here.
00:28:02Tonight, Jack Swagger shows the entire world
00:28:05what you can do.
00:28:08What can you do?
00:28:09Look.
00:28:12Redneck.
00:28:17Jack Swagger shows the entire world why I'm the future of this company.
00:28:21And after I beat you and win two draft picks for my brand,
00:28:26WWE is gonna have a new poster boy.
00:28:29And his name is the two time, two time,
00:28:34all American, American Jack Swagger, ECW champion.
00:28:40I don't think we've ever met, John Cena.
00:28:47And you are- Jack Swagger.
00:28:50Jack Swagger, the All-American.
00:28:52American.
00:28:54Yeah, I know, you're an All-American.
00:28:57American.
00:28:59Bro, don't sweat me, I love this country too, Statue of Liberty, 4th of July,
00:29:03American, wow.
00:29:04Listen, I'm the All-American, American.
00:29:08Wait, you actually call yourself the All-American, American?
00:29:16Yeah, that's ridiculous, you know how stupid that sounds?
00:29:19That's like me running out there going, the champ is here, here.
00:29:24Or you can't see me, me.
00:29:27Bro, have you ever just stopped and thought about that?
00:29:30I'll tell you what, it's the draft.
00:29:31Tonight is the draft, it's a chance for new beginnings, fresh starts.
00:29:35Tonight, maybe you should think about going with just the All-American.
00:29:40Or if you really need something at the end, this one's pretty good,
00:29:44the All-American Jackass.
00:29:48Listen, Cena, I came here- Hey, I don't care why you came here.
00:29:53I've seen you, you're good, but you're a punk kid with a couple of winds
00:29:56under his belt who likes to run his mouth.
00:29:59Welcome to Monday Night Raw.
00:30:01Tonight, you get a lesson in respect.
00:30:06Respect.
00:30:10Oh, Swagger and Cena, that's going to be good.
00:30:14Good.
00:30:15As we've seen so far, all superstars are eligible to be drafted.
00:30:19Which brand will capture two draft picks in one match?
00:30:22We'll find out in the 15-man Tri-Branded Battle Royale tonight.
00:30:27And I got a question for you.
00:30:29What makes six-Diva tag team action even hotter?
00:30:32Well, when there's a draft pick on the line.
00:30:36Oh, baby.
00:30:37Diva's tag team action is next.
00:30:43Champion exits Raw and heads to SmackDown.
00:30:47Well, it's champion versus champion.
00:30:50World Heavyweight Champion John Cena versus ECW Champion Jack Swagger.
00:30:54Two draft picks at stake.
00:30:56It's next.
00:30:59You're back live on Monday Night Raw.
00:31:01One of the most passionate, emotional interview segments
00:31:04that I can recall in a long, long time.
00:31:05Well, we saw John Cena standing tall there on SmackDown last Friday.
00:31:08Tonight, he's facing the ECW Champion Jack Swagger.
00:31:12John Cena, World Champion Jack Swagger, ECW Champion.
00:31:15That match in just moments.
00:31:17But first, it's the 2009 WWE Draft.
00:31:20And what a start for Monday Night Raw.
00:31:23A Rey Mysterio win gave us the US Champion MVP.
00:31:26Oh, and that is big.
00:31:28The most valuable player he could be right here on Raw.
00:31:31And then, look at this.
00:31:32I said, I hope it's a big winner for us.
00:31:34And it was.
00:31:35The big show had been drafted to Raw.
00:31:38He could dominate Raw.
00:31:39But hey, guys, you win some, you lose some.
00:31:41Coming over to SmackDown from Raw, the Women's Champion Melina.
00:31:47Well, but the bottom line of this, ladies and gentlemen, is that this draft
00:31:50is far, far from over.
00:31:52Over two hours of the annual WWE Draft still to come live tonight.
00:31:59The following is for two picks in the 2009 WWE Draft.
00:32:06And it is a champion versus champion match.
00:32:10Introducing first, representing Raw, from West Newbury, Massachusetts,
00:32:17weighing in at 240 pounds, he is the World Heavyweight Champion, John Cena.
00:32:39Whoa, the champ is here.
00:32:40It's absolutely deafening in here.
00:32:43There is no one, no superstar, who evokes the emotion out of the WWE
00:32:49universe like the World Heavyweight Champion, John Cena.
00:32:53His passion, his emotions, his need and want to be champions
00:32:58is what drives John Cena.
00:33:10Thank you for joining us, ladies and gentlemen.
00:33:12You are watching a very special Monday Night Raw, live in Atlanta, Georgia,
00:33:17from the sold out Phillips Arena.
00:33:19It's Draft Night.
00:33:29And representing ECW, from Perry, Oklahoma, weighing in at 270 pounds,
00:33:36he is the ECW Champion, the All-American American, Jack Swagger.
00:33:46Well, don't let the laid back smile of the All-American American,
00:33:50Jack Swagger, fool you.
00:33:51Jack Swagger is dominant and forceful.
00:33:54And he looks to prove it right now against John Cena.
00:33:58Well, John Cena went as far as to call Swagger a punk kid
00:34:01who needs a lesson in respect.
00:34:03Bear in mind that punk kid is a two-time All-American and the ECW Champion.
00:34:09I mean, guys, can you blame John Cena for the way he acted?
00:34:12I mean, Jack Swagger never introduced himself to the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:34:15Walked up to him in the locker room and said,
00:34:17the champ is here, something John Cena has been saying for years.
00:34:21Well, Jack Swagger also said that he is the future of the WWE.
00:34:27So for the first time ever, John Cena meets Jack Swagger.
00:34:31It's World Champion versus ECW Champion.
00:34:34And remember, two draft picks are on the line in this match.
00:34:38Well, the WWE official is aware of the magnitude of having two major title holders in one match.
00:34:43Thus, this match merits two draft picks to the winning brand.
00:34:47Two weeks of backlash, John Cena focuses on Edge
00:34:50in a Last Man Standing match for the World Championship.
00:34:54Tonight, it's a matchup with Jack Swagger.
00:34:57And I gotta tell you guys, ECW and Edge,
00:35:00well, this is just a tremendous opportunity for Jack Swagger.
00:35:03Well, Matt, it's also a tremendous contrast in styles, this matchup.
00:35:06Jack Swagger, a pure technician inside the ring.
00:35:09John Cena, far from that.
00:35:11Well, Cena has tangled with the best,
00:35:13but many say that Cena has never encountered someone with the pure Matt abilities as Jack Swagger.
00:35:19Jack Swagger has never encountered someone with the heart and the soul
00:35:23and the grittiness of one John Cena.
00:35:25You're gonna see some ground and pound here from Swagger, I believe.
00:35:30Well, no, but Cena's smart, rolling over to his stomach to avoid a pinfall.
00:35:34He's gonna have to do that against the cagey Swagger.
00:35:41So much at stake here for the all-American, American Jack Swagger,
00:35:44not only representing ECW, but two draft picks on the line.
00:35:48Matt, we haven't got a pick yet.
00:35:50We might get two.
00:35:52If Swagger can defeat Jack Cena, there's a pin for him.
00:35:56Well, John Cena, the pop culture superstar, has ignited the WWE universe.
00:36:04And Cena, from out of nowhere, in slow-moting.
00:36:07Gotta be honest, kind of pulling for Swagger.
00:36:13Jack Swagger could go a long way in making himself and his career
00:36:17here tonight with a win over Cena on Monday Night Raw.
00:36:20John Cena, quickly to the ring, first cover of the matchup.
00:36:22Two draft picks on the line, and a kick out by Swagger.
00:36:26I'm gonna hand it to Swagger.
00:36:27I've seen a lot of superstars come and go here in the WWE,
00:36:30but he has made a huge name for himself in a very short time.
00:36:34Just ask him about it.
00:36:36Oh, yeah, he'll tell you.
00:36:37It only took Jack Swagger four months to capture the ECW championship.
00:36:42And now Swagger to the cover.
00:36:44Hooks the leg, and the champ kicks out.
00:36:46Notice how Swagger keeps the distance very close
00:36:49between he and his opponent.
00:36:50That allows Jack Swagger to capitalize.
00:36:56You don't want to get too close to John Cena
00:36:58as he starts throwing those rights and the lefts.
00:37:02Jack Swagger saw earlier on.
00:37:03John Cena, 25th anniversary of WrestleMania, beat Two Man Edge
00:37:07in the big show, in the triple threat match for the world championship.
00:37:11Hey, King, you've been in the ring with some of the strongest in the world.
00:37:14Have you ever seen anyone with the strength of John Cena?
00:37:17What about that impressive feat at WrestleMania?
00:37:19Oh, without a doubt.
00:37:20John Cena, I was starting to say,
00:37:23maybe the most powerful guy I've ever been in the ring with.
00:37:27But, hey, let's don't underestimate Jack Swagger either.
00:37:31Come on, Jack.
00:37:33Took a little too much time going into the cover there,
00:37:35and it may have cost him.
00:37:37Just look at this clothesline from the two-time All-American.
00:37:41That deserves to be said twice.
00:37:45Swagger said earlier tonight,
00:37:47told John Cena, when I beat you,
00:37:49I'll be the new poster boy for WWE.
00:37:56Over 16,000 strong, electric tonight in Atlanta.
00:38:01Nobody home.
00:38:04And Swagger with a full Nelson applaud.
00:38:07Focusing on the neck, the well-documented injuries
00:38:11to John Cena's neck and upper torso.
00:38:13Swagger is smart.
00:38:15And there's where the strength of John Swagger
00:38:18comes into play too.
00:38:19Look at the pressure that he's exerting on the neck.
00:38:22He could put John Cena out of here.
00:38:24Look at Cena's face turning blood red.
00:38:26Neck injury, that strike we alluded to,
00:38:28happened late last year.
00:38:29Cena needed surgery to repair it.
00:38:31Look at this strength.
00:38:35Cena trying to muscle his way out of that full Nelson.
00:38:38Those giant catcher mitt-like hands
00:38:40trying to pry the fingers.
00:38:42You know, we always talk about how much of a technician
00:38:45Swagger is in the ring.
00:38:46I think one thing that people don't notice
00:38:48is how big he is, Matt.
00:38:49Absolutely.
00:38:50Jack Swagger goes about six feet, six inches tall.
00:38:53I mean, John Cena is no small man.
00:38:55And Jack Swagger towers over the champ.
00:38:58Look at Cena.
00:38:59Look at the darkness.
00:39:00Look at the strength of Cena.
00:39:01The power of the world champion.
00:39:06Oh, wow.
00:39:09And Cena looks to build momentum.
00:39:12Two draft picks are on the line.
00:39:16Oh, look out here.
00:39:18Oh, no, no, no.
00:39:19You know what's coming.
00:39:25I hope Cena says it.
00:39:27I hope he does it.
00:39:29You can't see me.
00:39:31I wanted to say it.
00:39:33Oh, my God.
00:39:38How about a little five-knuckle shuffle
00:39:40from the champ?
00:39:42I've been hit with this move before.
00:39:44Swagger's smart to get to his feet.
00:39:46Well, how smart is he?
00:39:47Oh, no.
00:39:48Attitude adjustment time.
00:39:49Oh, no.
00:39:50Swagger may get that lesson in respect,
00:39:52but he hangs onto the top rope.
00:39:54What a kick.
00:39:55Those long limbs of Jack Swagger coming into play.
00:40:00Oh, this would be a huge, huge upset.
00:40:03A kick out by Cena.
00:40:06I don't know if you can call it an upset.
00:40:08I mean, let's face it.
00:40:09He's the W champion,
00:40:11but it would be a huge feather in his cap.
00:40:13Two draft picks are on the line.
00:40:15Who will hit the jackpot?
00:40:16Raw or ECW?
00:40:18Find out as Raw continues live next.
00:40:22We're back live with a special three-hour
00:40:24on Monday Night Raw.
00:40:25It's draft night.
00:40:26World champion from Raw, John Cena.
00:40:28Versus ECW champion, Jack Swagger.
00:40:31Two draft picks are on the line.
00:40:33And just as we were going to commercial break,
00:40:35here's what happened.
00:40:36Oh, John Cena sent head first into the announce table.
00:40:40Michael Cole and Jerry The King Lawler
00:40:42representing Raw here at ringside.
00:40:43Joined, of course, by Josh Matthews and Matt Stryker
00:40:45from ECW.
00:40:47And the ECW champion,
00:40:49the all-American, American Jack Swagger
00:40:51is going move for move
00:40:53with the World Heavyweight Champion, John Cena.
00:40:56I got a hand for Jack Swagger.
00:40:57I'm impressed.
00:40:58I thought Cena had it earlier
00:41:00with the five-knuckle shuffle somehow.
00:41:03Well, not only has Jack Swagger survived,
00:41:05he has got the upper hand of the leg here.
00:41:08John Cena on a paddle back in this matchup.
00:41:13Swagger, what a move!
00:41:15Oh, wow!
00:41:16Cena looked to take the worst of it
00:41:18as he tried to counter with a single leg.
00:41:20You're right.
00:41:21Cena tried to counter,
00:41:22but he drove himself head first into the mat.
00:41:24But too close to the ropes, perhaps,
00:41:25and Cena has to kick out at two.
00:41:27Oh, that looked bad.
00:41:28Josh, you made a great point during the break
00:41:30how Swagger is attacking Cena's torso and neck,
00:41:33dissecting the World's Heavyweight Champion.
00:41:36Jack Swagger perhaps one or two moves away
00:41:39from earning two draft picks for ECW.
00:41:42You have to call it an upset, Matt Stryker,
00:41:44if Jack Swagger were to defeat John Cena
00:41:46right here on Monday Night Raw.
00:41:48High knee.
00:41:50Swagger.
00:41:51Cena's in trouble.
00:41:52Hooks the leg.
00:41:53Cena maybe has it over for Cena.
00:41:55And a kick out again at two.
00:41:56Guys, notice how Swagger hooks both Cena's head and leg.
00:42:00It makes it increasingly difficult
00:42:02to push a grown man off of you.
00:42:04Well, you know how big this match is.
00:42:06I mean, not only are both of these men champions
00:42:08of their respective brand,
00:42:10I mean, you know, there's two draft picks at stake,
00:42:12but these guys both want to win.
00:42:14Wow!
00:42:15Swagger again with that pride factor.
00:42:17Hooks the leg.
00:42:18Cena in trouble.
00:42:19Does he have it?
00:42:20And another near fall for Jack Swagger.
00:42:21And every time John Cena looks like
00:42:24he's going to get back in the game,
00:42:25Jack Swagger counters.
00:42:27So, guys, what do you think of the ECW champ, huh?
00:42:30I'm impressed.
00:42:31Yeah.
00:42:32Really impressed.
00:42:35Perhaps you are looking at the new poster boy of WWE.
00:42:42I'm impressed that he's hung with John Cena this long
00:42:44and he doesn't even look at Cena.
00:42:45Oh, wait a minute.
00:42:46May have made a mistake.
00:42:47May have made a mistake.
00:42:48John Cena going for the attitude adjustment.
00:42:50Swagger's in trouble.
00:42:51Cena connecting.
00:42:54Oh, no.
00:42:55And John Cena.
00:42:57SPF.
00:42:59Looks to punish Swagger.
00:43:01Middle of the ring.
00:43:02Swagger taps.
00:43:03Cena wins.
00:43:05Raw gets two draft picks.
00:43:08Here is your winner by submission,
00:43:11John Cena.
00:43:13What a night it's been for Monday night Raw.
00:43:16Oh, but what a match that was.
00:43:18Wow.
00:43:19Let's give Jack Swagger credit.
00:43:21Cena was certainly put to the test, gentlemen.
00:43:24Man, that he was.
00:43:26A very game Jack Swagger tonight.
00:43:29All right, let's get on with the picks.
00:43:30The first pick for Monday night Raw,
00:43:33who is it going to be?
00:43:36Oh, man.
00:43:39You're biting your fingernails, Michael.
00:43:45Who is it?
00:43:49Oh, wow.
00:43:50Matt Hardy.
00:43:52Matt Hardy, the man who
00:43:55defeated his own brother Jeff
00:43:57in an extreme rules match in WrestleMania.
00:44:00In a structure match this past Friday night on SmackDown,
00:44:03is already out here mocking the champion, John Cena.
00:44:06Oh, Matt Hardy has been so full of himself
00:44:08since that huge win at WrestleMania.
00:44:11He is ready to go to Raw.
00:44:14And believes it could be a major challenge
00:44:17for the champion.
00:44:18But we're not done.
00:44:20We got another draft incoming,
00:44:21virtue of Cena's win.
00:44:23Oh, this is great.
00:44:27It's like the lot or the jackpot.
00:44:42Here we go.
00:44:44Oh, my God.
00:44:45The game.
00:44:47Triple H.
00:44:48Triple H is coming to Raw.
00:44:50We did hit the lottery.
00:44:52Raw won the lottery.
00:44:54And for the time, Triple H is coming home
00:44:58to Monday nights.
00:45:01Now the world champion
00:45:03and the WWE champion
00:45:07are on Monday Night Raw.
00:45:11Wow.
00:45:13Is there room for both of them?
00:45:17Well, this was about shaking things up.
00:45:19I don't think you can shake it up any more than this.
00:45:21Triple H.
00:45:24Can you believe it?
00:45:30I don't know if John Cena can believe it.
00:45:32Monday Night Raw has just been taken to a whole new level.
00:45:35The game's in town.
00:45:39Hey!
00:45:41That's Edge.
00:45:44The ultimate opportunist
00:45:45who beat Cena in the last man standing match
00:45:48in backlash just ambushed Cena.
00:45:50I just caught him out of the corner of my eye.
00:45:52Edge came through the crowd.
00:45:55Oh!
00:45:57And John Cena.
00:45:58Oh!
00:45:59And Edge sneaking away.
00:46:01You know, just like Edge.
00:46:03On SmackDown Friday night,
00:46:04Cena begged him,
00:46:05raped his face to hit him.
00:46:07Edge wouldn't take the shot.
00:46:08What does he do tonight?
00:46:09He attacks him from behind.
00:46:10He tried to take the shot.
00:46:13But he almost got Cena's best shot.
00:46:21There's no run at Edge in backlash.
00:46:23It's last man standing.
00:46:25But I think Edge wants to let that be a warning to John Cena.
00:46:33John Cena.
00:46:35The world champion.
00:46:36That's what it's about.
00:46:38In addition to all tonight's draft matches,
00:46:40Triple H, Batista, and Shane
00:46:42team up for the first time to face Randy Orton's protege,
00:46:45Rhodes and DiBiase in a handicap match.
00:46:47As ordered by Raw GM Vickie Guerrero,
00:46:49the team member that scores the pinfall
00:46:51against Rhodes or DiBiase
00:46:52will go one-on-one with Randy Orton next week.
00:46:55However, if Rhodes and DiBiase win tonight,
00:46:58whoever they pin will have to face Legacy
00:47:00in a three-on-one match next week.
00:47:02That blockbuster match with huge implications
00:47:04is going to be later on tonight.
00:47:08Now we flip.
00:47:39The Big Show.
00:47:40I mean, he's capable of dominating Monday Night Raw.
00:47:42Thanks to a John Cena victory,
00:47:44we got two draft picks.
00:47:45The first one, Bat-Party,
00:47:47comes from SmackDown to Monday Night Raw.
00:47:49And then, as it gets bigger than the Big Show,
00:47:51well, baby, look at this.
00:47:53The WWE Champion, Triple H.
00:47:56The Game is back on Monday Night Raw.
00:47:59Oh, man.
00:48:09Randy, what do you need?
00:48:12Listen up, guys.
00:48:16Just so that we're all clear
00:48:18about what exactly is on the line tonight,
00:48:20if you guys win, then we all get our hands on one of them
00:48:24next week on Raw.
00:48:25If you lose, whoever beats you,
00:48:27I have to face one-on-one next week.
00:48:29Now what I want to know
00:48:30is what's your strategy going into this thing?
00:48:35We'll keep them at odds with one another.
00:48:37Create more animosity.
00:48:39Randy, they'll do anything to get to you.
00:48:43And we know these guys are egomaniacs.
00:48:46I mean, there's no way they can get along.
00:48:48They're gonna do something tonight
00:48:50to get themselves disqualified.
00:48:52That's how we'll win the match,
00:48:53and that's how you'll win the WWE Championship
00:48:57at Backlash.
00:49:01I like it.
00:49:03I like it.
00:49:04Good stuff.
00:49:07One, two, three.
00:49:10Match later on tonight
00:49:11between the Triple H and Shane
00:49:13versus Rhodes and DiBiase.
00:49:19Well, that music can mean only one thing.
00:49:22Santino Marella.
00:49:26The following is a draft pick match
00:49:29scheduled for one fall.
00:49:30Introducing first, from Calabria, Italy,
00:49:33weighing in at 227 pounds,
00:49:36Santino Marella.
00:49:39Where's Santino?
00:49:40Where's Miss WrestleMania?
00:49:42I don't know.
00:49:43His twin sister is not accompanying Santino.
00:49:46But the draft continues
00:49:48with Santino Marella in action
00:49:50representing Monday Night Raw.
00:49:52Is Raw streak gonna continue?
00:49:58Back on Monday Night Raw,
00:49:59Santino is now in action.
00:50:01He's now in action.
00:50:02Well, you know Santina,
00:50:03Santino's twin sister,
00:50:04she actually reminds me of Monroe.
00:50:06The actress?
00:50:07No, the president.
00:50:12Oh, no!
00:50:14Look at this!
00:50:16And representing SmackDown,
00:50:18from India,
00:50:19standing at seven feet, three inches tall,
00:50:22weighing in at 420 pounds,
00:50:25The Great Kong Lee!
00:50:28Alongside Jim Ross,
00:50:29I'm Todd Grisham here for SmackDown.
00:50:31And JR, to coin one of your phrases,
00:50:33we need SmackDown's business to pick up.
00:50:36No doubt about it.
00:50:37Great time for Monday Night Raw,
00:50:38but maybe the 7'3", 420 pounder,
00:50:41The Great Kong Lee,
00:50:42can do something about that.
00:50:44Yeah, when I saw Kong Lee come out,
00:50:46I thought, well, Raw for all may be over.
00:50:49Yeah, you hate to count your chickens
00:50:51before they hatch,
00:50:52but this one's ready to crow.
00:50:55I think you commented, JR,
00:50:57on SmackDown Friday Night,
00:50:58on Kong Lee's new wrestling gear.
00:51:01Look!
00:51:02Kong Lee may knock that unibrow off Santino.
00:51:07Whoa!
00:51:08Well, four of the five draft picks
00:51:10have gone from SmackDown to Raw,
00:51:13and SmackDown looks for a decisive victory here
00:51:16to pick up a second draft pick.
00:51:21What's this?
00:51:24Santino's girlfriend, Beth Phoenix,
00:51:27and their intern, Rosa Mendes.
00:51:30That's his former girlfriend.
00:51:34Well, hello, Santino, my little cannoli.
00:51:38Cannoli?
00:51:39I just came out here to let you know
00:51:41that I had a little conversation
00:51:43with Vickie Guerrero earlier tonight,
00:51:45and there's more on the line in this match
00:51:48than a draft pick.
00:51:51You see, Santino,
00:51:53if The Great Kali beats you tonight,
00:51:56then your twin sister, Santina,
00:52:00better pucker up,
00:52:02because she's gonna be a guest
00:52:04on The Kali Kiss Cam next week.
00:52:07What?
00:52:09Oh, no!
00:52:12Is that where The Great Kali
00:52:14plays tatso hockey with his guests?
00:52:16Well, the Punjabi Playboy has already stated
00:52:19that he wants to kiss Santina.
00:52:24Why, I'm not sure.
00:52:25And when The Great Kali is smitten,
00:52:27he is really smitten, King.
00:52:30And apparently he is smitten with Santina.
00:52:36Well, last week on SmackDown,
00:52:37The Great Kali answered Santino's open challenge
00:52:41and decimated The Italian.
00:52:43Can he do so again tonight?
00:52:46Come on, come on, come on!
00:52:48Well, that's his best defense right there.
00:52:50That may be the best hold Santino's got in this match.
00:52:53Yeah, holding the ropes.
00:52:54We know what Santino's cost on WWE.com this week.
00:52:57Santino said that Santina, his sister,
00:52:59is more of a man than he'll ever be.
00:53:02That I believe.
00:53:04They have so much in common.
00:53:06Well, Santino, I guess he's actually fighting
00:53:08for the honor of his sister right now.
00:53:10Oh!
00:53:11Well, you know, Indian men have an affinity
00:53:14for Italian women, from what I understand.
00:53:16Well, I did not know that.
00:53:17Oh!
00:53:18Uh-oh, wow.
00:53:19Well, at least that Indian man does.
00:53:21And he may have picked up the second draft pick
00:53:23for SmackDown, and he has.
00:53:26That means Santino has to go on the kiss cam.
00:53:28The Great Kali!
00:53:31Santino's gonna have to fuck her up.
00:53:34Man!
00:53:35I hope Kali likes hairy women.
00:53:38Oh, maybe Santino will be drafted here to SmackDown.
00:53:42Let's find out who the next pick is.
00:53:45Whoa!
00:53:47The Money in the Bank Ladder Match winner
00:53:49from the 20th century, Santino!
00:53:52Oh!
00:53:53Oh!
00:53:54Oh!
00:53:55Oh!
00:53:56Oh!
00:53:57Oh!
00:53:58Oh!
00:53:59Oh!
00:54:00Oh!
00:54:01Oh!
00:54:02Oh!
00:54:03Oh!
00:54:04Oh!
00:54:05Oh!
00:54:06Oh!
00:54:07Oh!
00:54:08Oh!
00:54:09Oh!
00:54:10Oh!
00:54:11Oh!
00:54:12Oh!
00:54:13The Money in the Bank Match winner
00:54:14from the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania,
00:54:16CM Punk, is coming to SmackDown!
00:54:20A two-time Money in the Bank winner,
00:54:24and CM Punk coming to Friday nights
00:54:27and bringing the Money in the Bank contract with him.
00:54:32And don't forget, CM Punk has the discretion
00:54:36to challenge any champion, anytime, anywhere,
00:54:39whether he be from Raw, SmackDown, or ECW.
00:54:44CM Punk capitalized last year.
00:54:47Win or...
00:54:49We'll be doing it again!
00:54:56Good tip for Friday night SmackDown.
00:54:59A great tip!
00:55:02Don't push it hard!
00:55:04Stay steady!
00:55:06Don't question the power that burns inside!
00:55:10Well, there's Miz and Morrison on their way to the ring.
00:55:13We're gonna find out who's next to be drafted.
00:55:18Receive those two draft picks.
00:55:20Who else will be drafted?
00:55:22We'll find out as five superstars each from Raw, ECW, and SmackDown
00:55:26compete in an all-important Raw Tri-Branded Battle.
00:55:29Royal, it's live, and it's next.
00:55:36The following is a 15-man Tri-Branded Battle, Royal,
00:55:41and it is for two picks in the 2009 WWE Draft.
00:55:52Two picks at stake!
00:55:55Representing Raw, the team of
00:55:59Montero, Vontavious Porter, MVP,
00:56:03Shannon, JTG, Crown Time,
00:56:07Mike Knox, and The Big Show!
00:56:10Two of our new draft picks are already looking for Team Raw tonight!
00:56:13Man, they didn't waste any time in getting in action!
00:56:16MVP and The Big Show!
00:56:19How about Crown Time?
00:56:21Mike Knox as well!
00:56:23Pretty formidable team!
00:56:26This is a Battle Royal, Tri-Branded,
00:56:29with two draft picks at stake.
00:56:33You gotta be thrown over the top rope to be eliminated
00:56:36with both feet hitting the floor, then you're gone.
00:56:39Last brand standing gets those two draft picks.
00:56:42Who can throw The Big Show over the top rope?
00:56:46Representing ECW,
00:56:52Finlay,
00:56:56Tyson Kidd,
00:56:58Paul Murchill,
00:57:00the world's strongest man,
00:57:03Mark Henry,
00:57:06and Ricky Ortiz!
00:57:09Well, if you're keeping score at home, the tallies are
00:57:135 for Raw, 2 for SmackDown, and 0 for ECW.
00:57:17Let's see if these five men can get the dub off the schneid.
00:57:32Representing SmackDown,
00:57:34Carlito,
00:57:36Remo,
00:57:37R-Truth,
00:57:38Chavo Guerrero,
00:57:40and the Rated-R Superstar,
00:57:43Edge!
00:57:44So here comes SmackDown's five entrants,
00:57:46and Edge knows a thing or two about this Tri-Branded Battle Royal, Jim Ross.
00:57:50Last year, Edge won it.
00:57:52He did, let's see if he can make history again.
00:57:55The big thing is, for SmackDown, we need two draft picks,
00:57:58and we need them badly.
00:57:59Now the rules for the Battle Royal,
00:58:01throw your opponent over the top rope, both feet must touch the floor.
00:58:04The last man standing representing a brand
00:58:07will, of course, get two draft picks for their brand.
00:58:10Matt, Matt, excuse me, I think I just said that.
00:58:13But that's okay.
00:58:14I think Michael Cole said it better,
00:58:16last brand standing.
00:58:17Thanks, Chris.
00:58:18And here we go, this is gonna be wild and fun here live on Raw.
00:58:22Wild and wooly.
00:58:24I'm allowed to be excited.
00:58:26It's the most unpredictable night on the WWE calendar.
00:58:29And right now, ECW trying to turn that frown upside down.
00:58:33They've got a big O on the scoreboard.
00:58:35This is Monday Night Raw.
00:58:36We are live tonight at the Phillips Arena in Atlanta.
00:58:39A special three-hour Raw for the 2009 WWE Draft.
00:58:44And what you're seeing in the ring,
00:58:4515 superstars, five from each brand,
00:58:48in a Battle Royal.
00:58:49The winning team to get two draft picks.
00:58:52So many things going down tonight.
00:58:54Raw receiving the plethora of draft picks so far,
00:58:58SmackDown with two.
00:58:59But here we are, the tri-branding Battle Royal.
00:59:02One brand will get two picks right now.
00:59:04There's absolute carnage inside the ring.
00:59:07We still have another hour left here live on Monday Night Raw.
00:59:10Our main event is still to come.
00:59:12And it's a massive main event, to say the very least.
00:59:15I don't think it'll be any more massive than the big show.
00:59:18Started the night on Friday Night SmackDown and got drafted.
00:59:22The second guy drafted tonight,
00:59:24and now a member of Monday Night Raw.
00:59:26Carlito about to go.
00:59:27If anyone can do it, JR, it's the world's strongest man.
00:59:30JR, you're the judge.
00:59:31You're the dean.
00:59:32Who has the advantage here?
00:59:34The guy weighs 485.
00:59:36A big, bald guy with a red T-shirt on.
00:59:38He's down on Raw.
00:59:40I'm not a teacher for nothing, huh?
00:59:42Whoa.
00:59:43It's going to take a collective effort
00:59:45to eliminate the big show.
00:59:47And probably Mark Henry, with the most resourceful men in the ring,
00:59:51may be the favorite Finlay and Edge.
00:59:54What?
00:59:55Ricky Ortiz.
00:59:56Ricky Ortiz.
00:59:57Well, I said earlier, who could possibly
00:59:59throw the big show over the top rope?
01:00:01Well, you're right.
01:00:02Mark Henry, big show.
01:00:03Another ECW guy.
01:00:05ECW's down to just three.
01:00:07Thank you.
01:00:08Well, one of them is still Mark Henry, the world's strongest man.
01:00:11And there, Mark Henry has just eliminated someone.
01:00:14Mike Knox.
01:00:16One of your guys, King.
01:00:17Get to know him.
01:00:19The name around here.
01:00:20Whoa.
01:00:21Shabo, thanks for coming.
01:00:22Whoa, and look out.
01:00:23And there goes Shad Gaspard from Prime Time.
01:00:26Bodies are flying everywhere all of a sudden.
01:00:28Let's get a recount here.
01:00:29I think we got three Raw superstars left.
01:00:31Look out.
01:00:32Big Show dominating.
01:00:33Whoa.
01:00:34Three SmackDown now.
01:00:35There goes Primo.
01:00:36And how many ECW?
01:00:37Three as well.
01:00:38Tyson Kidd, the Stampede Kid.
01:00:41I should say Raw's Big Show is dominating.
01:00:44Mark Truth has been eliminated.
01:00:46Up, up, up, up.
01:00:47Big Show is a walking dungeon.
01:00:48Oh, there goes Tyson Kidd.
01:00:50Pretty good drop kick we got here.
01:00:52Yeah, but look at Mark Henry.
01:00:53He's matching Big Show.
01:00:54Elimination for elimination.
01:00:56Mark Henry and Big Show seem to be conveniently avoiding each other for now.
01:01:01Wouldn't you?
01:01:04Whoa, look out.
01:01:05Carlito.
01:01:06Whoa.
01:01:07That had no effect.
01:01:08Not at all.
01:01:09And the other half of the unified tag team champions.
01:01:12Good grief.
01:01:13Sent to the locker room.
01:01:15So Edge, the only superstar from SmackDown, still in the ring.
01:01:21United States champion MVP.
01:01:24By the world's strongest man and eliminated.
01:01:26There you go.
01:01:27An auspicious debut for him.
01:01:29And to a final four.
01:01:31And ECW has the advantage.
01:01:38And then there were three.
01:01:40SmackDown, Raw, and ECW all still alive.
01:01:44Quite a trio.
01:01:45Don't go too long, Edge.
01:01:47Or don't turn around.
01:01:48I don't think you'll like the view.
01:01:50Edge may not be the last man standing here tonight.
01:01:53He wants to be a backlash and become the world's champion against John Cena.
01:01:57It's back to Toronto for you, Wendell Clark.
01:02:00Looks like King Kong and Godzilla.
01:02:03Who does that make Edge?
01:02:04Mothra?
01:02:05If you can't beat him, run.
01:02:10Two large carnivores looking at Edge.
01:02:19Come on, Mark. Come on.
01:02:21Yeah, Matt, ECW desperately needs these two draft picks here in this dry-branded battle royal.
01:02:27Josh, go in there and help Mark.
01:02:29Look at that! Look at Big Show!
01:02:31Can you believe this?
01:02:32No way!
01:02:33Oh, my Lord!
01:02:35Mark Henry is over 400 pounds.
01:02:38And he's hanging on for dear life.
01:02:39Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a minute!
01:02:40Can the ropes support it?
01:02:42Mark Henry hanging on!
01:02:44He's pulling on the Big Show!
01:02:48It's all about the world's strongest man and the leverage.
01:02:51Big Show pushing and pounding on Mark Henry, but...
01:02:54Oh, headbutt.
01:02:56Mark has a grip that is in the Guinness Book of World Records.
01:02:59Hold on, Mark.
01:03:04Big Show's head should be in the Guinness Book of World Records.
01:03:07Uh-oh, right hand!
01:03:08Right hand hitting knocks Henry!
01:03:11Jeez, down goes Michael Goetz.
01:03:14Henry knocked off the apron with the explosive right hand.
01:03:18No, Matt, we're out.
01:03:20Nobody can stand up to that huge right hand of the Big Show.
01:03:23Well, we know what Edge and the Big Show have in common.
01:03:26Vickie Guerrero, you're our general manager, Edge's wife, and Big Show's lover.
01:03:33And your boss.
01:03:34That's true.
01:03:35But now they fight for two draft picks.
01:03:38And I don't like Edge's chances.
01:03:40Edge won this last year, we mentioned that.
01:03:42Can he do it again?
01:03:43The odds certainly not in his favor.
01:03:46Edge needs a slippery slope.
01:03:49Oh, he may have found it!
01:03:50He did it!
01:03:51What?
01:03:52Smackdown gets two draft picks!
01:03:55What?
01:04:00It's Smackdown!
01:04:02Smackdown!
01:04:07Well, Big Show just put both his giant fists on the Smackdown table.
01:04:12He wasn't able to put them on Edge, however.
01:04:14And for that reason, Edge, for the second consecutive year, has won the tri-branded Battle Royal.
01:04:22Well, Lady Luck has just smiled on Edge.
01:04:25And the Big Show is just absolutely beside himself.
01:04:28Look out!
01:04:30Big Show and Edge have this rivalry.
01:04:35Let's find out who now are our two draft picks for Smackdown.
01:04:56Kane!
01:05:00Kane!
01:05:08The Big Red Machine will be tearing things up on Friday night!
01:05:15How will the Big Red Machine look in blue, JR?
01:05:17We're gonna find out, won't we?
01:05:20He can wear whatever he wants.
01:05:23I'll choose not to be his haberdasher.
01:05:26So that was the first draft pick for Smackdown.
01:05:29Who's the second?
01:05:45It's gonna be good.
01:05:46It's gotta be good.
01:05:50Why me?
01:05:51Yeah!
01:05:56Save us, Chris!
01:05:59One of the most controversial superstars in all WWE, Chris Jericho!
01:06:07Now, how are the egos of Jericho and Edge going to coexist on Friday night?
01:06:14Well, Jericho and Edge are longtime friends.
01:06:19Could be some sort of alliance, perhaps?
01:06:21Well, maybe, but then again, maybe not.
01:06:24Time will tell.
01:06:26Well, the night started out kind of rough for Smackdown, but JR, things are getting better, aren't they?
01:06:32We're building momentum, and this draft has still got almost an hour to go.
01:06:38So the two Canadians meet eye-to-eye and look forward to being Smackdown partners.
01:06:43Now, ladies and gentlemen, Triple H, Shane McMahon, and Batista compete against Rhodes and DiBiase, but also against each other.
01:06:49Whoever can score a pinfall against Rhodes or DiBiase will go one-on-one with Ford next week on Raw.
01:06:54However, if Rhodes or DiBiase win tonight, whoever they pin will have to face Legacy in a three-on-one match next week.
01:07:02That's blockbuster match with huge implications still to come tonight!
01:07:20Unfortunately, first representing ECW, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing 223 pounds, Christian!
01:07:31Well, here comes the charismatic, engaging, sleek, and agile Captain Charisma from ECW, Christian.
01:07:41And we need a draft pick, Matt Striker.
01:07:43Yes, we do.
01:07:45Nine picks so far tonight. Raw has five, Smackdown, four.
01:07:49ECW still looking for their first draft pick here tonight.
01:07:53But don't forget the supplemental rant that starts at noon eastern on WWE.com.
01:08:00And his opponent, representing Smackdown, from Orangeburg, South Carolina, weighing 248 pounds, the gold standard, Shelton Benjamin!
01:08:12Well, JR, as I mentioned before, the break things didn't look so good for Smackdown early on.
01:08:16But now, all of a sudden, four picks for Smackdown, including Chris Jericho, Kane, and CM Punk.
01:08:23Well, it's all about momentum, but more importantly, it's all about winning.
01:08:26Winning is the bottom line.
01:08:28Both these men know how to win, and the stakes are certainly high, especially for Christian,
01:08:35who's carrying the ECW brand on his shoulders.
01:08:38And ECW needs a win in this one.
01:08:41JR, is Shelton Benjamin the best pure athlete you've ever seen?
01:08:45Well, he ranks right up there.
01:08:47He's a T-bone suplex.
01:08:49I haven't seen anybody any better, I can tell you that.
01:08:53Benjamin, fast, strong, powerful, agile.
01:08:56He has every physical gift he needs to be the best in WWE.
01:09:01And a cover now for Shelton.
01:09:03Don't count out Christian's athletic ability.
01:09:05Don't count out Christian's athletic ability.
01:09:07Both these superstars were spectacular in that Money in the Bank ladder match at WrestleMania.
01:09:12Both men were fearless.
01:09:13They put their careers on the line.
01:09:15That's what Money in the Bank means to those eight men that were competing at the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania.
01:09:21We'll see Christian trying to hit his move, the Kill Switch.
01:09:25It focuses on the head and neck region.
01:09:28Christian can hit it in so many different ways.
01:09:30Well, hopefully Christian connects with that, and ECW gets a first track pick.
01:09:34Unbelievable.
01:09:36A flat footed jump to the top rope.
01:09:38Followed by a rip-throw Roman throw.
01:09:40Very smart by Christian, but understand a count out still gives the brand a draft pick.
01:09:46So Christian needs to get back in the ring.
01:09:48Look at Shelton from the top rope just tossing Christian about ten feet away.
01:09:53A great example of not only Benjamin's agility leaping to the top, but his strength with that throw.
01:10:00I bet he can dunk a basketball, JR.
01:10:02You think, Todd?
01:10:03Two at the same time?
01:10:04I miss you, Todd.
01:10:06And a cover here from Shelton.
01:10:08Oh, a two count.
01:10:09Matt, I'd love to see ECW get their first pick, but just not right now.
01:10:13I'm sorry.
01:10:17Smackdown has begun to gain some momentum here.
01:10:21We'll see if Shelton Benjamin can maintain that momentum and win this match.
01:10:26Look at the way Christian clenches his fingers.
01:10:28That pain runs up and down the spine.
01:10:30Shelton very smart going right to the focal point.
01:10:33And guys, by the way, you wouldn't think that with all the hoopla and all the pageantry
01:10:38surrounding tonight's three-hour Raw that CM Punk would cash in that money in the bank briefcase.
01:10:43Would he?
01:10:44Expect anything, right?
01:10:45Anything can happen.
01:10:46Never say never.
01:10:47Punk won the championship June 28th, Oklahoma City.
01:10:52I remember it well when he became the world's heavyweight champion.
01:10:56Went on to become Intercontinental champion and a tag champion.
01:10:59He got on a roll with CM Punk all because of money in the bank.
01:11:03It's all about opportunity.
01:11:04It's all about seizing the moment, picking the precise time.
01:11:07Right now it's all about the WWE draft and getting a pick for either Smackdown or ECW
01:11:13between Christian and Shelton Benjamin.
01:11:16Christian breathing from his mouth.
01:11:18It's usually a sign of fatigue.
01:11:21Oh, nobody home there for Shelton.
01:11:23Come on, Christian.
01:11:24That may be Benjamin's biggest enemy.
01:11:26His own having no fear.
01:11:29Taking a chance and sometimes at the most inopportune time.
01:11:33Now let's see if Christian can counter.
01:11:36The window's open for Captain Charisma.
01:11:42How about a fist fight?
01:11:44I don't think that Christian can out-wrestle Benjamin on the mat.
01:11:48I wouldn't discount his fighting ability.
01:11:51Smart.
01:11:53Looking for the kill switch.
01:11:54If he turns him over, he drops him right on his face.
01:12:00Shelton showing some strength to go along with that athletic ability.
01:12:04Benjamin thinking he lifted a chair, got the back ring instead.
01:12:07Maybe, but not quite enough.
01:12:10Shelton knows that silver is not good tonight.
01:12:13He needs to get the gold.
01:12:14He needs to win to grab another draft pick for Smackdown.
01:12:19Another demonstration of agility and power.
01:12:23The combination is amazing with Shelton Benjamin.
01:12:26But again, he left his feet.
01:12:28There's the chance.
01:12:29Benjamin comes up at the middle.
01:12:31Kill switch.
01:12:32Go, go.
01:12:33One, two, three.
01:12:35We got one.
01:12:36W's on the board.
01:12:44All right, Josh.
01:12:45What do you think?
01:12:46What do you think?
01:12:48I don't know what to ask right now.
01:12:49Riley CW is on the board here in the WWE draft.
01:12:53We're getting our first pick right now.
01:12:55Let's find out who it is.
01:12:57Come on, come on.
01:12:58I'm hoping for John Cena.
01:12:59How about that?
01:13:00Come, come, come, come.
01:13:05Who's it going to be?
01:13:10Come on, make it good.
01:13:11Make it good, please.
01:13:18Oh!
01:13:19The Moscow Waller, Vladimir Kozlov.
01:13:25Things are certainly going to change in the Land of Extreme.
01:13:28Wow.
01:13:29And this guy's from a place where the favorite drink is a Molotov cocktail.
01:13:33The cyborg, Vladimir Kozlov, is coming to the Land of Extreme.
01:13:38That's it.
01:13:41Welcome to ECW, Vladimir Kozlov.
01:13:45And look at the look of intensity on the face of the Moscow Waller.
01:13:53A special three-hour edition of Monday Night Raw
01:13:55is live in Atlanta, Georgia tonight.
01:13:57Phillips Arena.
01:13:58Sold out.
01:13:5916,431 WWE fans.
01:14:05Ladies and gentlemen, here on Monday Night Raw,
01:14:07a very personal issue moving to the next level here tonight.
01:14:10Triple H, Batista, and Shane McMahon have a major issue with Randy Orton.
01:14:14They take on Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase in a three-on-two match tonight.
01:14:17And Triple H's team wins.
01:14:19Whoever picks up the pin in that matchup
01:14:21gets to meet Randy Orton one-on-one next week on Raw.
01:14:24Yeah, but you seem to keep forgetting if Rhodes and DiBiase win,
01:14:27well, whoever they pin,
01:14:29well, they've got to face the entire legacy three-on-one match next week.
01:14:37Hey.
01:14:38So we're good?
01:14:39All right, great.
01:14:40Orton's mine.
01:14:44We talked about this earlier, Shane.
01:14:46I'm not kidding.
01:14:48Orton's mine.
01:14:49Stay out of my way.
01:14:51If Dave were here, I'd tell him the exact same thing.
01:14:57Why don't you?
01:15:00If you already heard it,
01:15:02you don't need me to say it again.
01:15:05Yeah.
01:15:06Every man for himself.
01:15:08I'm cool with that.
01:15:15Move!
01:15:18Sit down there.
01:15:44Randy Orton!
01:15:47The following is a drafted match in the form of one-fall.
01:15:51Representing SmackDown,
01:15:54from Chicago, Illinois,
01:15:56weighing in at 222 pounds,
01:15:59he's the winner of WrestleMania's Money in the Bank match,
01:16:03CM Punk!
01:16:06Ladies and gentlemen, do not adjust your sets.
01:16:09About 20 minutes ago, CM Punk was a member of the Raw roster.
01:16:13Now, JR, he's been drafted,
01:16:15and he will represent SmackDown tonight.
01:16:18And CM Punk will also be fighting for the 11th draft pick of the evening.
01:16:23And don't forget, he's still Mr. Money in the Bank.
01:16:26He can cash in that contract against any champion, anytime, anywhere.
01:16:35And representing Raw,
01:16:37from Cambridge, North Carolina,
01:16:39weighing in at 236 pounds,
01:16:42Hardy!
01:16:43Once on SmackDown,
01:16:45now a part of Monday Night Raw,
01:16:47Matt Hardy.
01:16:49Ladies and gentlemen,
01:16:51WrestleMania is the lead story on tomorrow's season premiere of ESPN E60.
01:16:56The feature airs at 7 Eastern, 4 Pacific on ESPN.
01:16:59The WWE feature is called Floor to the Ring,
01:17:02and it profiles Vince McMahon in the inner workings of WWE
01:17:06on the eve of the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania.
01:17:11And both of these superstars, JR,
01:17:13involved in big, huge matches at WrestleMania this year.
01:17:16Without a doubt, and Matt Hardy came out with a great deal of momentum,
01:17:19and who'd have thought that CM Punk could have won Money in the Bank two years in a row?
01:17:25Oh, this is for his draft pick.
01:17:28And so far, if you're keeping score at home,
01:17:30it's five picks for Raw,
01:17:32four for SmackDown,
01:17:34one for ECW so far.
01:17:36Of course, Matt Hardy has been embroiled in that bitter rivalry
01:17:39with his brother Jeff Hardy.
01:17:41Those brothers have now been separated.
01:17:43Jeff's yet to be drafted.
01:17:45He's still on SmackDown.
01:17:47Well, Matt has vowed to erase Jeff from the WWE.
01:17:53It'll be interesting how Matt Hardy accomplishes that feat
01:17:55with him pressing on Monday Nights and Matt on Fridays,
01:17:58on Friday Night SmackDown,
01:17:59or Jeff on Friday Nights.
01:18:02CM Punk, the Chicago Made Punk,
01:18:05doing a very proficient with knees and feet.
01:18:08And a kick out by Matt Hardy.
01:18:10You mentioned it earlier, JR.
01:18:11What a year CM Punk has had since WrestleMania last year
01:18:15when Money in the Bank casted him for the World Championship.
01:18:18He also was ECW Champion, World Tag Team Champion,
01:18:21Intercontinental Champion.
01:18:23Now he's Money in the Bank winner again.
01:18:24He finds himself on Friday Nights.
01:18:26I'd say he had himself a heck of a year in 2008.
01:18:30What an innovative maneuver by Matt Hardy.
01:18:32That may do it. That could be it right here.
01:18:34Can Hardy make the cover?
01:18:36Punk just barely kicks out,
01:18:38but he could have bruised or maybe even broken ribs.
01:18:41Man, that looked like it broke CM Punk in half.
01:18:43One can only speculate the internal damage.
01:18:46And a move like that can make that kick.
01:18:49Can we see that one more time?
01:18:50Watch CM Punk.
01:18:53And here's a cover, cover by Matt Hardy.
01:18:55And a kick out.
01:18:56This is just another example, gentlemen,
01:18:58of this change, this metamorphosis
01:19:00that Matt Hardy has gone through over the past few months.
01:19:03Well, Hardy on currently the biggest role of his career
01:19:05looking for another pin here,
01:19:07beating his brother Jeff not only at WrestleMania,
01:19:10but last week on SmackDown in the first ever stretcher match.
01:19:14Matt Hardy, a lifelong WWE fan,
01:19:16has become a supreme strategist.
01:19:18He may have evil envy of his brother Jeff.
01:19:21You can't take anything away from Matt Hardy's abilities.
01:19:25Matt Hardy is targeted in ribs.
01:19:28The abdomen area of CM Punk.
01:19:29What about the respective brands here?
01:19:31They've not wasted any time in getting their new superstar.
01:19:34Draft picks in action.
01:19:36At the beginning of this program,
01:19:39well, Matt Hardy was a SmackDown superstar,
01:19:42and CM Punk was a Raw superstar.
01:19:44You know, there's no use in burning any daylight.
01:19:46Let's just get it on, right?
01:19:48Let's find out who's gonna win this thing.
01:19:49And that's what it's all about, ladies and gentlemen, winning.
01:19:53I'm sure both these superstars would love to
01:19:55to give a positive influence to their new locker rooms.
01:19:59I don't think Matt Hardy
01:20:00wants to give a positive influence to anybody.
01:20:02He didn't care about anybody but himself.
01:20:03He said that.
01:20:04I look for Matt Hardy to do great things
01:20:06on Monday Night Raw.
01:20:08The same as CM Punk,
01:20:09getting a fresh start on Friday Night SmackDown.
01:20:13But he can still cash in money in the bank
01:20:15against any champion.
01:20:18CM Punk is showing tonight
01:20:20and decided he's gonna challenge somebody
01:20:22on next week.
01:20:26CM Punk battling for another draft pick, perhaps,
01:20:29for SmackDown, Matt Hardy for Raw.
01:20:32CM Punk's knees are like his fists.
01:20:34His heels are like his fists.
01:20:36And a cover here
01:20:37for SmackDown's newest member in a two-count.
01:20:39I like the overall skills of CM Punk.
01:20:42It's gonna be exciting to watch him
01:20:44continue to evolve
01:20:46as one of the truly great superstars
01:20:48in WWE on Friday Night SmackDown.
01:20:51He's gonna do great on SmackDown.
01:20:52CM Punk is one heck of an athlete.
01:20:54He's really grown into his own over the past year.
01:20:58We talk about CM Punk having a great year.
01:21:00How about Matt Hardy?
01:21:01Back-to-back wins over his brother Jeff.
01:21:03And an ECW championship, but a two-year kickout
01:21:06by Matt Hardy.
01:21:07It's sort of weird.
01:21:08We're rooting for Matt Hardy out here, King.
01:21:10And who is?
01:21:11What do you mean, we?
01:21:12Raw. Monday Night Raw.
01:21:13Another draft pick on the line here.
01:21:15You're right. It does seem strange, doesn't it?
01:21:16Did you forget Matt got drafted?
01:21:19Uh-oh. Went for the go-to-sleep.
01:21:21Hardy fighting away from go-to-sleep.
01:21:23Has that well scouted.
01:21:26Oh, and a side effect by Matt Hardy.
01:21:28Man, when he can hit those quick finishing maneuvers
01:21:31like the side effect.
01:21:32Or an RKO in Randy Orton's case.
01:21:36Hey, wait a minute.
01:21:38Look at this!
01:21:39That's Jeff Hardy, Matt's brother.
01:21:42Jeff Hardy is assaulting his brother Matt.
01:21:46These two men are maybe emotionally separated.
01:21:50But something's gotta give here
01:21:52between the brothers Hardy.
01:21:54This brotherly rivalry crosses all brands, apparently.
01:21:59Jeff now, from the high-ranked district.
01:22:04And Matt Hardy,
01:22:06why is he getting out of the ring
01:22:08ahead of his sworn time to the floor?
01:22:12And Matt Hardy running like a scarlet dog
01:22:14away from his younger brother.
01:22:17But the issue is,
01:22:18the winner of the match.
01:22:19Ladies and gentlemen, as a result of a disqualification,
01:22:21the winner is Matt Hardy.
01:22:24So Raw gets the draft pick.
01:22:26Raw gets the draft pick.
01:22:28Because of Jeff Hardy's attack on his brother.
01:22:31Well, congratulations on that.
01:22:33Thank you.
01:22:34Hey, I'll take it.
01:22:35Let's see who it is.
01:22:41Who's it gonna be?
01:22:47Oh, Raw's had a great night so far.
01:22:53It's about to continue.
01:22:54Who is it?
01:22:56The Divas Champion.
01:22:58Maryse, it's coming to Raw.
01:23:02Things just got hotter on Monday night.
01:23:04Wow.
01:23:05Can you speak French?
01:23:07He's gonna learn.
01:23:08I can't even speak right now.
01:23:10Of the fresh fries.
01:23:11Fresh onion soup.
01:23:13You gotta go farther than that.
01:23:14Rosetta Stone.
01:23:17Maryse.
01:23:18Coming to Raw.
01:23:20The Divas Champion.
01:23:22Coming to Monday Night Raw.
01:23:25Woo-hoo!
01:23:26She is hot.
01:23:31Well, still to come, we get a preview of Backlash
01:23:34when Triple H, Batista, and Shane team up for the first time
01:23:37to face Orton's protegees, Rhodes and DiBiase.
01:23:40The team member that scores the pinfall against Rhodes and DiBiase
01:23:43will go one-on-one against Randy Orton next week on Raw.
01:23:46Yeah, but if Rhodes and DiBiase win tonight,
01:23:48then the man that cares gotta go one-on-three next week on Raw.
01:23:51Bottom line.
01:23:52Leave it there.
01:23:53Still to come tonight.
01:23:55Woo-hoo!
01:23:57And representing ECW, from Yonkers, New York,
01:23:59weighing in at 253 pounds,
01:24:01it's Triple H!
01:24:03Triple H!
01:24:04Triple H!
01:24:05Triple H!
01:24:06Triple H!
01:24:07Triple H!
01:24:08Triple H!
01:24:09Triple H!
01:24:10Triple H!
01:24:11Triple H!
01:24:12Triple H!
01:24:13Triple H!
01:24:14Triple H!
01:24:15Triple H!
01:24:16Triple H!
01:24:17Triple H!
01:24:18Triple H!
01:24:19Triple H!
01:24:20Triple H!
01:24:21Triple H!
01:24:22Triple H!
01:24:23Triple H!
01:24:24Triple H!
01:24:25And representing ECW,
01:24:27weighing in at 255 pounds,
01:24:30Tommy Dreamer!
01:24:33Oh, Matt, Tommy Dreamer is an ECW original,
01:24:36and you know that Tommy would love to help out the ECW brand
01:24:39by defeating Chris Jericho and getting us a draft pick.
01:24:42Well, Tommy Dreamer's the heart and soul of ECW.
01:24:44Can you imagine what it would be like
01:24:46if Tommy Dreamer was on a different brand?
01:24:48Certainly a must-win situation,
01:24:50not only for the draft pick,
01:24:52but the fact that Tommy Dreamer has said
01:24:54his contract expires in early June.
01:24:56He's out of here!
01:24:57This is the first time ever
01:24:59for Tommy Dreamer versus Chris Jericho.
01:25:02JR, back to your point, though.
01:25:03Tomorrow night on ECW on SyFy,
01:25:05Tommy Dreamer will be involved in the Elimination Chase
01:25:07triple threat match to Backlash,
01:25:09and Tommy does have a great opportunity
01:25:11to get an ECW championship match come Backlash.
01:25:14One thing about Tommy Dreamer,
01:25:16he's a man that has built his reputation and respect.
01:25:19He was a prodigy of Terry Funk,
01:25:22the new WWE Hall of Famer.
01:25:25Enough about Tommy Dreamer.
01:25:26Let's focus on Chris Jericho.
01:25:28He's now on the SmackDown brand,
01:25:30and we need a victory to make our picks go from four to five.
01:25:33What about Jericho's disrespect of legends
01:25:35and the greats who have paved the way?
01:25:37JR, you alluded to Dreamer's mentoring by Terry Funk.
01:25:40Some say that Tommy Dreamer is an ECW legend.
01:25:43Well, bottom line is that Chris Jericho
01:25:46doesn't have any more respect for Tommy Dreamer
01:25:49than Chris Jericho would have for Terry Funk
01:25:51or any other WWE Hall of Famer.
01:25:53Hey, I'm sorry to say, but if Tommy Dreamer's a legend,
01:25:56then so, too, is the Brooklyn Brawl.
01:25:58Wow!
01:25:59I would agree with that.
01:26:04Chris Jericho's certainly a multifaceted competitor,
01:26:09can beat you in a lot of ways.
01:26:11Chris Jericho cut his teeth in the original ECW
01:26:14but achieved superstardom here in the WWE.
01:26:17Jericho, the first ever undisputed champion,
01:26:20a man that beat The Rock and Stone Cold on the same night.
01:26:24And not only that, but at the 25th anniversary
01:26:26of WrestleMania on the same night,
01:26:27Jericho defeated WWE legends Jimmy Shnooker,
01:26:30Roddy Roddy Piper, Ricky Steamboat,
01:26:32and then gave it to Ric Flair as well.
01:26:35Of course, let's not forget Mickey Rourke.
01:26:38Left hand.
01:26:40Yeah, but he wasn't in the match, Striker.
01:26:42Tommy Dreamer a little overzealous there.
01:26:44This may really cost him,
01:26:46but once Jericho finds the advantage,
01:26:48makes his advantage, he can really capitalize.
01:26:50One, two, three.
01:26:52In our main event tonight, it's a three-on-two handicap match.
01:26:55Triple H, Batista, and Shane McMahon
01:26:56have the advantage over Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase.
01:27:00That match is still to come.
01:27:03Jericho not gonna make any mistakes,
01:27:05and that's what Tommy Dreamer needs now
01:27:07is for Jericho to make a mistake
01:27:09or Dreamer must create his own break.
01:27:13ECW needs to break.
01:27:14We got one draft pick so far,
01:27:16Vladimir Kozlov.
01:27:17I'm not complaining about that, Matt Striker,
01:27:18but we could use another one here.
01:27:21And SmackDown has now gotten Chris Jericho
01:27:24the Slammy Award-winning Superstar of the Year, JR.
01:27:28I can't wait to see what Jericho
01:27:30will do this Friday night on SmackDown.
01:27:34And right now, for that matter,
01:27:35he's representing the brand,
01:27:37looking for a win here over the ECW original Tommy Dreamer.
01:27:43I'll tell you what, like Jericho or not,
01:27:45and I know him very well,
01:27:46I think he's gonna make an immense impact
01:27:49on Friday night SmackDown.
01:27:51Jericho will try to ruin the school on Friday nights.
01:27:55It'll be an interesting locker room, to say the least.
01:27:58And Dreamer needs this.
01:28:00He needs to connect here.
01:28:04Come on, Tommy.
01:28:08Dreamer's gotta capitalize
01:28:10while he's got the opportunity.
01:28:15Time to go for that DDT.
01:28:16Jericho slipped the legs.
01:28:18Dreamer may have just taken a second
01:28:20or two more than he should have.
01:28:22Time will tell.
01:28:25Oh, look at this.
01:28:26Shoulders down.
01:28:28That was a vector maneuver, an inside cradle
01:28:31from a very unique position.
01:28:33Look up, Jericho off guard.
01:28:35And ECW was one second away from another draft pick.
01:28:38One, two, no!
01:28:40No!
01:28:42About a half a second away there.
01:28:44I don't know, that one should be under review.
01:28:47Oh, where's Tommy going?
01:28:48Wow, desperate times calls for desperate measures, huh?
01:28:51Tommy Dreamer zeppelin-like in his greats.
01:28:54Is this judicious?
01:28:56We also would have accepted the Hindenburg striker.
01:29:00Dreamer has landed in an obviously very precarious position,
01:29:04and now gives Jericho another opportunity
01:29:08to rebuild the momentum he had earlier.
01:29:10And to help rebuild the locker room of SmackDown.
01:29:12There's no way he can suplex Tommy Dreamer from there, can he?
01:29:17Well, not now.
01:29:23Dreamer's victory will be Jericho's nightmare.
01:29:27Oh!
01:29:28Perfectly tied.
01:29:30Perfectly tied by Chris Jericho,
01:29:32the newest member of SmackDown.
01:29:34Has he gotten yet another draft pick
01:29:36for the blue and white?
01:29:38Yes, he has!
01:29:40Here is your winner, Chris Jericho!
01:29:45I just don't get it.
01:29:46That's how it goes sometimes, huh?
01:29:49Chris Jericho with a very dominant victory
01:29:53with an amazing counter.
01:29:56Thank you.
01:29:57From a bizarre position,
01:30:00and now who's coming to Friday nights?
01:30:03Thank you, Chris Jericho.
01:30:04May we have another?
01:30:07You've got to be kidding me!
01:30:09Good times!
01:30:11What a draft pick!
01:30:12Pretty mysterious!
01:30:14Back on Friday nights!
01:30:17Or many say, that's pretty dominant.
01:30:21Why didn't I smack him in a brand?
01:30:24Why is all of this happening?
01:30:27I don't know.
01:30:29I don't know.
01:30:31I don't know.
01:30:33I don't know.
01:30:35Ray's following is amazing!
01:30:37And the Intercontinental Champion
01:30:39will now hang his mask,
01:30:41if he will, on Friday nights.
01:30:44619.
01:30:46Those are the three numbers you need to remember
01:30:48as SmackDown's fifth pick
01:30:51is Ray Mysterio,
01:30:53the Lucha Libre style.
01:30:56You know, earlier tonight,
01:30:58Monday Night Raw had so much momentum
01:31:00and got some great picks without question.
01:31:02But Friday Night SmackDown has really gained momentum
01:31:05as this three-hour broadcast has progressed.
01:31:08And let's take a look at some of the...
01:31:11Of course, the biggest for Monday Night Raw
01:31:13is the fact they do have a WWE Champion.
01:31:16The incomparable Game
01:31:18will be competing on Monday nights.
01:31:21How happy must Randy Orton be?
01:31:24Also, coming to SmackDown from Raw
01:31:27is Chris Jericho.
01:31:28You just saw him in action.
01:31:30He earned the right for SmackDown to get that draft.
01:31:33And that provided Ray Mysterio's door to open
01:31:36to Friday nights.
01:31:37Jericho, a big-time player without a doubt.
01:31:40And he's gonna make a difference on Friday nights,
01:31:43just as the Moscow Rawer
01:31:45will do on Tuesday nights on SyFy.
01:31:48ECW's lone pick thus far
01:31:51is the Russian, Vladimir Kozlov.
01:31:54As for Raw, they got, well,
01:31:55the biggest athlete in the world, J.R.
01:31:58At least 485 pounds.
01:32:00And will the big show make a big difference?
01:32:03Yes, he will on Monday Night Raw.
01:32:06And then just moments ago,
01:32:08you saw it, Ray Mysterio,
01:32:10the Intercontinental Champion,
01:32:12comes to SmackDown.
01:32:14I've always said that size didn't matter,
01:32:16and Ray Mysterio is a testament to that.
01:32:19The Great Ray, coming back on Friday.
01:32:22You know, SmackDown can brag all they want,
01:32:24but I'm pretty happy with the Raw draft this year.
01:32:26Hey, the full draft results are available right now
01:32:28at WWE.com, plus exclusive interviews
01:32:32with some of the draftees.
01:32:33And don't forget, the 2009 draft,
01:32:35the supplemental draft,
01:32:36will be held all day this coming Wednesday
01:32:39on WWE.com.
01:32:40Yeah, it's 12 Eastern, 9 Pacific
01:32:42on WWE.com this coming Wednesday.
01:32:44But are you ready?
01:32:45Are you ready for the main event here tonight
01:32:47on Monday Night Raw?
01:32:49Oh, yeah.
01:32:50Oh, baby, I'm priceless
01:32:54There ain't no number
01:32:56by the power I possess
01:32:59Well, Randy Orton has the night open.
01:33:01These two don't.
01:33:02The following will be a two-on-three handicap match.
01:33:04Introducing first,
01:33:06at a combined weight of 454 pounds,
01:33:09the team of Cody Rhodes and Ted Austin.
01:33:14Well, tonight's draft has created some unforgettable moments,
01:33:16but it's main event time.
01:33:18It is main event time,
01:33:19and what a main event this is gonna be.
01:33:22Triple H, Batista, and Shane
01:33:25team up for the first time
01:33:26to face Randy Orton's protégés.
01:33:28Will Orton have an opponent next week on Raw?
01:33:31We're gonna find out live next.
01:33:39So, WWE superstars,
01:33:40they say to expect everything,
01:33:42and you can on the debut edition.
01:33:44This week, it's The Undertaker
01:33:46one-on-one against Matt Hardy.
01:33:47First time we'll see The Undertaker since WrestleMania.
01:33:50Ladies and gentlemen,
01:33:51it'll be the first match out of the box
01:33:53this Thursday night.
01:33:54WGN America,
01:33:56WWE superstars,
01:33:57we hope you'll join us.
01:33:59Now, there are D.B.I.C. and Rhodes,
01:34:01two-thirds of Legacy.
01:34:03Ready for the main event.
01:34:06Time to play the game.
01:34:14The 16,431 fans,
01:34:17here to see the game.
01:34:19He is the WWE champion,
01:34:23Triple H.
01:34:26Run as you can,
01:34:27say it's all about you.
01:34:29Stand as you can,
01:34:30play it,
01:34:31it's all about you.
01:34:33Earlier tonight on Monday Night Raw,
01:34:35Triple H was drafted
01:34:37back here to Monday Nights,
01:34:39but I believe that's the last thing on his mind
01:34:41right now.
01:34:43For Triple H,
01:34:45it is about retribution,
01:34:47and it starts tonight
01:34:49with D.B.I.C. and Rhodes.
01:34:51But at the end of the line,
01:34:52King, the real target for Triple H
01:34:54is Randy Orton.
01:34:55Without a doubt.
01:34:57You can feel the sincerity,
01:34:59you can feel the sincerity,
01:35:01the emotion and the voice of the game
01:35:03early on when he was talking about how
01:35:05he had to stand by helplessly
01:35:07and watch Randy Orton
01:35:10do the things that he did to his wife Stephanie,
01:35:12the mother of Triple H's children.
01:35:14Well, the question is, King,
01:35:15is who really wants Randy Orton more?
01:35:17Triple H or Shane McMahon
01:35:19or even Batista?
01:35:20Will those three be able to get along tonight?
01:35:24That's a good point.
01:35:27And also from Greenwich, Connecticut,
01:35:29weighing in at 235 pounds,
01:35:32Shane McMahon.
01:35:34This young man's been through.
01:35:35He was punched in the head by Orton.
01:35:37He watched his father be punched in the head by Orton,
01:35:40and he watched his sister RKO'd
01:35:42and DDT'd by the Viper.
01:35:45Orton trying to destroy Shane's entire family,
01:35:48including Shane.
01:35:49Yep.
01:35:50He's got a major beef with Orton as well.
01:35:56His brother and his brother-in-law, Triple H,
01:35:58setting the team up here tonight.
01:36:14And from Washington, D.C.,
01:36:16weighing in at 290 pounds,
01:36:19Batista!
01:36:22The animal is back!
01:36:26Randy Orton cost Batista four months of his career.
01:36:32Even more importantly,
01:36:33Randy Orton cost Batista the opportunity
01:36:36to be involved in the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania
01:36:40when he punched Batista in the skull late last year.
01:36:45Well, I'm just wondering
01:36:48whether these three egos can coexist in this ring.
01:36:53Actually, I don't know.
01:36:54Do they have to coexist,
01:36:55or do they just have to avoid getting pinned or beaten?
01:36:59Remember what's at stake here.
01:37:01One of these men,
01:37:02if they can pin either D.B. Ossie or Rhodes,
01:37:04they have an opportunity to go one-on-one with Randy Orton
01:37:07to get their hands on Randy Orton next week.
01:37:10That's what's at stake here, King.
01:37:11Oh, I know.
01:37:12They may be battling each other
01:37:13to try to pick up that victory.
01:37:16I think they're already trying to set up.
01:37:20Shane wasted little time
01:37:22as Batista and Triple H were arguing.
01:37:24As soon as the bell rang,
01:37:25Shane McMahon is all over Cody Rhodes.
01:37:28And look at Shane go,
01:37:29and Shane is just taking it to Cody.
01:37:31Oh, you gotta be careful there, Shane,
01:37:32pushing the referee.
01:37:33Can you imagine,
01:37:34what if one of these,
01:37:35what if Shane, Batista, and Triple H
01:37:36were to get disqualified?
01:37:37Well, here's Shane into the cover.
01:37:38This could be it, and a kickout.
01:37:40Well, if they're disqualified,
01:37:41that means I guess the person who's disqualified
01:37:44is gonna have to go into that three-on-one match
01:37:47against Legacy next week.
01:37:49Right now, Shane just measuring Cody Rhodes,
01:37:53and here comes the big one right here.
01:37:55Batista attacking himself in.
01:38:01Batista said earlier tonight
01:38:02he has one thing on his mind,
01:38:04and that is retribution.
01:38:06He would like to take out
01:38:08everything he's been dreaming to do to Randy Orton.
01:38:11Would love to do that to Diviace and Rhodes tonight.
01:38:14Well, you gotta understand one other thing.
01:38:16Batista, Triple H, and Shane McMahon
01:38:18got to be enjoying getting a little retribution
01:38:21on Diviace and Rhodes,
01:38:23because Diviace and Rhodes
01:38:24have been a part of everything
01:38:25that Randy Orton has done.
01:38:26Hey, Randy Orton and Legacy
01:38:27brought all this upon themselves.
01:38:29Randy Orton is the one
01:38:30who targeted the McMahon family,
01:38:32who wanted to destroy the McMahon family
01:38:34and take the championship from Triple H.
01:38:36And Diviace and Rhodes
01:38:37right at his side when they did it,
01:38:38and did you see that?
01:38:40Triple H.
01:38:42Triple H.
01:38:44Tagging himself in now.
01:38:48And Triple H said earlier tonight,
01:38:50I started it.
01:38:51I am damn well gonna finish it.
01:38:53Orton is mine.
01:38:55Strong words for the game.
01:39:00Triple H is hammering away.
01:39:03There's been so much talk from these guys
01:39:05about who's gonna beat either Rhodes or Diviace here.
01:39:09I don't know.
01:39:11Remember the game plan.
01:39:13Randy Orton and Legacy had set up
01:39:14to create animosity.
01:39:16No, they can't get along.
01:39:18Thunderous clothesline.
01:39:19Cover.
01:39:20Will it be Triple H who goes one-on-one next week?
01:39:22I don't think Rhodes and Diviace
01:39:23have to create any animosity.
01:39:25The animosity is just naturally there
01:39:27because each one of these men
01:39:28want to win this match.
01:39:31And that distraction by Rhodes
01:39:32may allow Diviace to get back into this thing.
01:39:34There's the spinebuster by Triple H.
01:39:35Quickly into the cover.
01:39:36Hook to the leg.
01:39:37And look at this.
01:39:38There's the animosity.
01:39:40Because Batista doesn't want Triple H
01:39:41to get the pinfall
01:39:42because it will be Triple H beating Orton next week.
01:39:45Not Batista.
01:39:47Oh, and from behind.
01:39:49Diviace capitalizes.
01:39:53You gotta understand that for some reason
01:39:54you're just tuning in here.
01:39:56The team of Triple H and Batista and Shane McMahon.
01:39:59Well, the team don't want to win the match.
01:40:01Each one of those men individually has to win.
01:40:04Now Diviace and Rhodes
01:40:05looking to pick apart Triple H.
01:40:06Remember the role that these two men have been on.
01:40:08Diviace and Rhodes
01:40:09went to SmackDown this past Friday night.
01:40:11And they beat the unified tag team champions,
01:40:14the Colons, on Friday night SmackDown.
01:40:19Don't ever sell Diviace and Rhodes, George.
01:40:21Like I said, they've been a major part
01:40:23of everything that Randy Orton has done.
01:40:26They have learned plenty from Randy Orton as well.
01:40:29The viciousness.
01:40:31The lack of emotion.
01:40:34The absolute...
01:40:35Oh!
01:40:38And Diviace with a perfect drop kick.
01:40:41Into the cover.
01:40:42Triple H. Triple H.
01:40:43Oh, and if Triple H had been pinned there,
01:40:45he would have had to meet Legacy three-on-one next week.
01:40:49You know what's the amazing thing?
01:40:50A few seconds ago when Triple H had Cody Rhodes covered,
01:40:54well, Batista came in and saved Rhodes.
01:40:57But Batista didn't come in then to save Triple H.
01:41:03Cody Rhodes,
01:41:04the son of the legendary Hall of Famer,
01:41:08Justin Rhodes, the American dream.
01:41:13This is a historic Monday Night Raw,
01:41:15live from Atlanta, Georgia,
01:41:17in front of a sellout crowd of 16,431 people.
01:41:21It's Triple H and Shane McMahon and Batista
01:41:24against Diviace and Rhodes.
01:41:25Here's the cover!
01:41:26And a kick out by Triple H.
01:41:28Another cover by Rhodes.
01:41:29Another kick out by the Game.
01:41:32What a night this has been.
01:41:33Three hour long Monday Night Raw featuring the 2009 WWE draft.
01:41:38And what some huge draft picks we've had.
01:41:40Triple H drafted to Raw tonight.
01:41:42The Big Show drafted to Raw.
01:41:44Along with MVP and Matt Hardy and The Miz and Maurice.
01:41:47Smackdown picked up Melina and CM Punk and Kane.
01:41:51Chris Jericho and Rey Mysterio.
01:41:53ECW with Vladimir Kozlov.
01:41:56And a kick out by Triple H.
01:42:00Surprised Triple H here in a world of trouble.
01:42:03But he's not getting much help from his partners.
01:42:05This is what's at stake.
01:42:07If Triple H's team wins,
01:42:08the person who picks up that pitfall
01:42:10will beat Randy Orton one-on-one next week.
01:42:12If Legacy wins, then Legacy will go three-on-one
01:42:15against the superstar they beat in this match tonight.
01:42:18Well, that's next week.
01:42:19But let's talk for a minute about Backlash.
01:42:21That's gonna be three-on-three for the championship
01:42:24that Triple H holds.
01:42:26If Legacy wins at Backlash,
01:42:28Randy Orton becomes the WWE champion.
01:42:30Here's the cover.
01:42:31And a kick out.
01:42:33Triple H could lose his championship at Backlash
01:42:35without even getting pinned.
01:42:38But if Triple H's team wins at Backlash,
01:42:41then the game will keep the WWE title.
01:42:45Right now, isn't it, Cody?
01:42:48I hope that at Backlash,
01:42:50there better be a little bit more of a team spirit
01:42:52than Batista, The Game, and Shane are showing here tonight.
01:42:57Now, here's the dilemma for Triple H.
01:42:59He's in trouble.
01:43:00He desperately needs to make the tag
01:43:02because he wanna tag himself out of this match.
01:43:05No, and that makes these two guys hot.
01:43:07And both Shane McMahon and Batista,
01:43:09they're both hotheads.
01:43:10And just think, if they were to get disqualified,
01:43:12well, here tonight, it'd be a tragedy,
01:43:14but just think what would happen
01:43:15if they got disqualified at Backlash.
01:43:17Goodbye, Triple H could kiss his title goodbye.
01:43:20Makes the tag for Batista.
01:43:23And DBI see him as well.
01:43:28Oh, my gosh!
01:43:30The power of Batista.
01:43:32Oh, man!
01:43:36Batista with an explosive return last week.
01:43:42Cover.
01:43:43Will it be Batista?
01:43:44Hooks the leg.
01:43:45Could he have it?
01:43:47Cody Rhodes breaks it up.
01:43:48Look at this!
01:43:49Look at Shane!
01:43:50I told you he's a hothead.
01:43:53Man, right over that top rope
01:43:55along with Cody Rhodes,
01:43:56Shane McMahon diving.
01:43:58What do we got here?
01:43:59Ooh, spine buster.
01:44:01Oh!
01:44:04Oh!
01:44:05It's been a while since we've seen this.
01:44:08Personally, I've missed it.
01:44:10Thumbs down for DBI.
01:44:12He sets up a Batista bomb on the horizon.
01:44:16Yes!
01:44:18And Batista hooks the leg.
01:44:20Batista and Shane McMahon breaks it up.
01:44:24What in the world?
01:44:25Because, again, Shane McMahon wants that opportunity
01:44:28at Randy Orton next week.
01:44:34Uh-oh.
01:44:39Now Triple H tags himself in.
01:44:48Oh, and Shane, what?
01:44:51Going right after Batista.
01:44:53Shane just speared Batista.
01:44:55And Triple H looks to take advantage.
01:44:58Pedigree.
01:45:00Triple H hooks the leg.
01:45:03Oh, my God.
01:45:04Next week, Triple H ensures himself an opportunity
01:45:09in Orton.
01:45:10Batista, Shane McMahon, and Triple H.
01:45:15The game victorious thanks to the fact
01:45:18that Shane McMahon and Batista were tied up with each other.
01:45:23Triple H finally gets his chance at retribution
01:45:27against Randy Orton next week.
01:45:30It's a WrestleMania rematch.
01:45:33Oh, my God.
01:45:37Finally, another opportunity for the game
01:45:41to take out all the anger, all the pent-up frustration
01:45:46when he gets his hands on Randy Orton one-on-one.
01:45:51Triple H said, I started it.
01:45:53I am damn well going to finish it.
01:45:56Uh-oh.
01:45:59And there is Randy Orton.
01:46:03Oh, my God.
01:46:08Well, next week, is it time for Randy Orton to face his sentence?
01:46:15Oh, Randy Orton is not only going to face the music,
01:46:18he's going to play the game.
01:46:20Or will Randy Orton finally take out the final piece of the puzzle
01:46:25and finally take out Triple H?
01:46:33I hear voices crying.
01:46:36Next week, live on Monday Night Raw,
01:46:39it's time for Randy Orton to play the game.
01:46:44I hear voices in my head.
01:46:47They doubt for me.
01:46:48They understand.
01:46:50They talk to me.
