00:00a very motivated Shawn Michaels and there you see the money in the bank is
00:05hanging high above the ring high stakes indeed
00:12and now it is time for the interpromotional money in the bank
00:18ladder match now the first man to climb the ladder and retrieve the briefcase
00:23will not only win the match but also a contract for a future championship match
00:29that can be used at any time over the next 12 months
00:37and here comes Taz in my mind, the man who's the favorite
00:41from Cameron, North Carolina
00:43weighing in at 236 pounds
00:47Matt Hardy
00:49he's from Smackdown and Matt Hardy because of his history in ladder matches
00:53three ladder matches at Wrestlemania including this one
00:55I believe he's the favorite
00:57I don't doubt about it, Paul, I agree with you
00:59I'm kind of leaning towards Finlay in this one
01:01but I hope it's the Smackdown guy
01:03from North Carolina
01:05weighing in at 248 pounds
01:07he is the Intercontinental Champion
01:11Shelton Benjamin
01:13Michael Cole and Taz, you can talk about the Smackdown guys all you want to
01:17but this young man, Shelton Benjamin
01:19is out to make a name for himself
01:21he's already the Intercontinental Champion
01:23he wants to be the World Champion
01:25making his way to the ring
01:27from Belfast, Ireland
01:29weighing in at 233 pounds
01:31Finlay
01:33so King, let me ask you a question
01:35you think for one second
01:37Shelton Benjamin can deal with this tough Irish bastard right here?
01:41maybe minus the shillelagh
01:43yeah, that's a good point
01:45Finlay used that shillelagh to defeat Lashley
01:47to get into this Money in the Bank ladder matchup
01:49a couple of weeks ago on Smackdown
01:51I'm impressed by Finlay
01:53he's tougher than a $2 steak
01:57how much is a $2 steak anyway?
01:59$1.99
02:05from Battle Creek, Michigan
02:07weighing in at 230 pounds
02:09Rob Van Dam
02:11King Rob Van Dam
02:13missed WrestleMania last year
02:15due to a knee injury
02:17Van Dam has never lost at WrestleMania
02:19he's 2-0
02:21the titles are a hell of a lot about ladders
02:23well that's true
02:25Michael and Taz, so far
02:27everybody that's come to the ring has been a favorite
02:29it just keeps getting better and better
02:31I agree, I said on Smackdown this past Friday
02:33that I was afraid of this guy Van Dam
02:35being in this matchup here
02:37look at the spirits from Lashley
02:39from Colorado Springs, Colorado
02:41weighing in at 273 pounds
02:43Bobby Lashley
02:45I'm afraid of this man
02:47Bobby Lashley making his WrestleMania debut
02:49after winning the last chance
02:51Battle Royal
02:53out of all these men in this match
02:55there's nobody with more power
02:57intensity or credibility
02:59than that man right there, Bobby Lashley
03:01I like this guy
03:03former wrestler for the U.S. Army team
03:05he is a stud
03:07ok, I got to disagree about one thing
03:09in just a second
03:11weighing in at 234 pounds
03:13The Nature Boy
03:15Ric Flair
03:17Ric Flair
03:19Taz, he may not have the power
03:21he may not have the intensity
03:23but he certainly got the credibility
03:2516 time world heavyweight champion
03:27Ric Flair will wrestle in only his second
03:29ladder match
03:31in his 30 plus year
03:33career
03:35but inside that briefcase
03:37hanging high up on the ring
03:39is a contract
03:41and that contract says
03:43the possessor of it
03:45will win the WWE title
03:47or the world title
03:49anytime that man chooses
03:51between now and the next 12 months
03:53and JR remember what happened
03:55Edge won this matchup last year
03:57he cashed in on Money in the Bank January
03:59at New Year's Revolution
04:01taking advantage of a John Cena
04:03who had defended the title successfully
04:05minutes before
04:07in that Armageddon matchup
04:09now remember ladies and gentlemen
04:11no pinfalls, no submissions
04:13there it is, only one way to win
04:15secure a ladder, put it in a ring
04:17climb it
04:19and possess that briefcase
04:21and there's the power
04:23lastly we were talking about
04:25WrestleMania debut for this man
04:27Michael Cole as you said
04:29the reason these guys want that contract
04:31is because it can be cashed in
04:33at absolutely any time
04:35you can take advantage of a moment of weakness
04:37on the part of the champion and bang
04:39well that's the deal too
04:41somebody will capitalize on it
04:43now Matt Hardy is going to utilize
04:45this weapon, this ladder
04:47Matt Hardy may be the most
04:49proficient
04:51of all the men in this ring
04:53but let me tell you something
04:55putting his match
04:57maybe his career on the line
04:59with that crossbody
05:01over the top right into the ladder
05:03taking the ladder and Matt Hardy
05:05down. Taz I think you agree that was not
05:07a smart move
05:09I don't think that was a smart move
05:11but Rob Van Dam has made a very good living
05:13for a long time in ECW
05:15and here in the WWE
05:17using ladders and putting his body on the line
05:19the former Golden Gopher
05:21from the University of Minnesota
05:23Shelton Benjamin
05:25didn't use any ladders in the Big Ten
05:27but he's using one here at Wrestlemania
05:29here's the reigning
05:31Intercontinental Champion
05:33that sadistic little smile on Shelton's face
05:35like this kid is
05:37oh my!
05:39a running sinkhole over the top
05:41and Benjamin takes down lastly
05:43Van Dam and Matt Hardy
05:45what are these guys doing?
05:49that was phenomenal
05:51let's take a look at this here
05:53amazing athletic ability by Benjamin
05:55it's phenomenal but it could have been suicidal
05:57and remember Shelton Benjamin knows
05:59what it's like to be in this matchup
06:01he was involved in the Money in the Bank matchup
06:03last year at Wrestlemania
06:05Benley and Flair
06:07I like this matchup
06:09remember it's every man for himself here
06:11it don't matter what brand you're from
06:13oh here goes Flair
06:15he's got to grab that briefcase
06:17what is he doing?
06:19look at Matt Hardy trying to
06:21shut down Ric Flair
06:23come on Matt
06:25he's out of his element in these ladder matches
06:27but Matt Hardy's in his JR
06:29no doubt
06:31oh no you've got to be kidding me
06:3327 years old
06:35what the hell
06:37the ladder
06:39the back
06:41the kidneys
06:43oh my god
06:45Flair may be broken
06:47he's hurt
06:53one of you guys might know
06:55Flair had a plane accident
06:57or something
06:59broke his back
07:01back in 1975
07:05check out Shelton Benjamin
07:07one more time
07:09can we see what
07:11Flair, watch this
07:15it was 31 years ago when Ric Flair
07:17broke his back
07:19October 4th 1975
07:21and the 57 year old living legend
07:23Ric Flair
07:25a surefire hall of famer someday
07:27being assisted out of here
07:29I think something
07:31I think he may have hyperextended his knee
07:37oh
07:39by the resourceful Van Dam
07:41driving Benjamin face first
07:43into the ladder
07:45Van Dam is fearless
07:47he's held in here
07:49oh and thunder
07:51right into the Ace Hardware ladder section
07:55let's see if we can see one more time
07:57maybe if we can catch what happened to Ric Flair
07:59from this angle
08:01maybe his heel landed
08:03all the weight of his body
08:05look at this
08:07look at Lashley
08:09Lashley the dark horse in the matchup
08:11trying to step the ladder up and head up for the briefcase
08:13this will be great here
08:15come on Lashley
08:17looks a little tentative here
08:19he's afraid of heights
08:21he wasn't in the air force
08:23he was in the army
08:25oh
08:27Lashley with the right hand
08:29these are two great athletes right here
08:31two young stallions here in the WWE
08:33Lashley from Smackdown
08:35Benjamin from Raw
08:37what the hell is this
08:39hang on Bobby
08:41hold on
08:43he's trying to powerbomb him off there
08:45Lashley's too strong
08:47three of them got him
08:49the three men
08:51the powerbomb
08:53it's every man for himself
08:55two Smackdown guys help the Raw guy
08:57get the other Smackdown guy over
08:59and Lashley a freak of nature
09:01to say the least
09:03I mean that in a nice way
09:05I don't want to offend Bobby Lashley
09:07you don't want to do that
09:09it's all B.J.'s here
09:11he's got to try it out
09:15this match is so dangerous
09:17we have two officials
09:19one Raw and one Smackdown official
09:21it's just a call for the paramedics
09:23Lashley's face
09:25driven right into the ladder
09:27Matt Hardy now with an offensive
09:29flurry on Finlay
09:31and what a story this would be
09:33of Matt Hardy using a ladder
09:35to win this match
09:39this is his third ladder match
09:41at Wrestlemania for Matt Hardy
09:43oh my god
09:45Finlay's unorthodox style I said earlier on
09:47can really help him in this type of a matchup
09:49I said on Friday Night Smackdown
09:51that Finlay was my pick
09:53Finlay's looking good right now
09:55I don't care how strong Lashley is
09:57that ladder, that metal ladder
09:59is going to do some damage
10:01this is a bar room brawl like environment
10:03I think right down Finlay's alley
10:05I think so
10:07now I don't know if Finlay
10:09one ladder down and
10:11Finlay has busted heads
10:13all around the world
10:15what the hell
10:17what's Flair
10:19what is Flair thinking
10:21he's hobbling back out here
10:23what the hell is he doing back out here
10:25it shows you how important it is
10:27for every man to win this match
10:29Flair says he's got another run in him
10:31Flair says he can be
10:33the champion one more time
10:35now wait a minute, hold on a second
10:37why the hell can he go in the back and leave the match
10:39and not come back to the match
10:41there are no rules, there's no rules in the matchup
10:43only one way to get this match to end
10:45that's a climb the ladder
10:47Flair's always been the opportunist
10:49possess the briefcase
10:51and Matt Hardy
10:53pulling down that North Carolina legend
10:55how ironic is that
10:57Hardy also from Tarhelia
10:59Flair now fighting
11:01for everything he's got
11:03wouldn't it be something
11:05if the 57 year old legend
11:07a man that will no doubt
11:09be on the face someday
11:11uh oh, climbing his toes
11:13reach out Rich
11:15he's got it
11:17somebody stop him
11:19wait a minute
11:21he's got the solely
11:23wait a minute
11:25oh yeah
11:27Flair right in the face
11:29with that solely
11:31he was inches away
11:33from possessing the briefcase
11:35the guy said there were no rules
11:37do what you gotta do
11:39watch Benjamin here
11:41gotta get it on the swing by
11:43the hell
11:45climbing the ladder
11:47he's gotta
11:49neutralize
11:51the intercontinental champion
11:53somebody's gotta neutralize that briefcase
11:55there you go
12:01I don't wanna see Benjamin get this opportunity
12:03to wrestle for the championship
12:05whenever he sees fit
12:07come on Bobby
12:09what a monster
12:11a gut wrench into an overhead
12:13that's his finishing move
12:15it's a dominator like the dominator
12:17Rod Simmons used to use
12:19very impressive
12:21I gotta agree with you Taz
12:23I didn't wanna see Benjamin win this thing either
12:25because then we'll have to listen to him and his mother
12:27grow about it for the rest of the year
12:29I can't sit and pull a main event
12:31I'll be sitting in the corner again over here
12:33what is Lashley gonna do
12:35Lashley is primed to win the money in the bank matchup
12:37come on Bobby come on Lashley
12:39wait a minute
12:41look behind you
12:45that's what I said and I knew it
12:47I said it on Friday night
12:49what did he do
12:51use that chair
12:53under his feet
12:55where the hell did he come from
12:57I don't wanna see this again
13:01I've taken that in my face
13:03from Benjamin
13:05Benjamin is so unorthodox
13:07he's dangerous in these types of matches
13:09Benjamin is unorthodox to say the least
13:11has absolutely no fear
13:13I think the same can be said
13:15regarding no fear of every man in this match
13:17wait a minute what is
13:19Ben Hardy you're way too far away from the briefcase
13:21what the hell is Hardy doing
13:23is Hardy gonna try a broad jump
13:25yeah
13:27wow
13:29and Hardy may have torn out his hamstring
13:31his hamstring smashed at the
13:33Lashley's concrete floor
13:35Hardy wanted to ground and make sure
13:37he had Bobby Lashley grounded
13:39and now Hardy
13:41the most proficient man perhaps
13:43in this match as far as
13:45the use, effective use
13:47of a ladder
13:49and Matt Hardy now
13:51climbing the rungs
13:53of the ladder
13:55he's got the briefcase
13:57wait a minute Finley
13:59I don't care it's two Smackdown guys
14:01but they haven't had it
14:03Finley climbing that ladder
14:05he's not a ladder specialist either
14:07but Matt Hardy is
14:09oh look at this
14:11no way side effect
14:13the side effect by Matt Hardy
14:15and the grimace on Finley's face
14:17really told the story
14:19how the ladder fell down
14:21and bounced on him
14:23and remember ladies and gentlemen what's at stake here
14:25in that briefcase above the ring
14:27is an opportunity to wrestle for the championship
14:29for the championship over the next year
14:31Van Dam
14:33this guy can fly
14:35Van Dam on top of that ladder
14:37he can do it
14:39stop him
14:41he don't care
14:43I'm telling you
14:45Van Dam
14:47with a splash
14:49off the top of the ladder
