00:04debut when they square off against Alpha Academy in tag team action but will
00:09leave the Great White North with a much-needed win. Find out next!
00:30Team match scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, Bronco Nima and Lucian Price. O-T-M!
00:40You can feel that presence you can feel that aura coming from the left coast a
00:44couple of bad boys from the Oakland area been friends for many years now
00:47brothers-in-arms of the NXT tag team division nearly 550 pounds of force
00:52representing O-T-M.
01:01And Bad Blood is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan. America's injury law firm.
01:05Injured? Go to ForThePeople.com. And by Wendy's new saucy nugs. Take the nugs
01:11you love and sauce them up in seven bold flavors like honey barbecue or garlic
01:16parm. Try them all today. For a home to win a nub, it's gotta be Wendy's.
01:21Much like Dante, Shannon, Connors earlier tonight, O-T-M a team that I'm very familiar with from NXT.
01:30And their opponents, accompanied to the ring by Max D, Dupree, Akira Ozawa, and Otis, Alpha Academy!
01:48You can hear that Calgary roar right there as the ups and downs continue for
01:52the Alpha Academy and just over a week after a wild mile-high mixed tag team
01:57showdown with American Made. The stamina monster and 310 pounds of blue
02:02color solid but for more positivity here on Main Event. You know you talk about
02:06being in Canada here tonight right and we talk about the past and the future
02:10how cool is it to see Bret the Hitman Hart on Raw. So many great moments have
02:17happened here in Canada. We talked about Bad Blood. It's hard to continue to look
02:21too far into the future but Survivor Series War Games in Vancouver Canada
02:26November 30th. So much excitement surrounding everything WWE. It's going to
02:31be a huge couple of months here to close out 2024 for the WWE. And listen to this
02:37Calgary reaction here for Otis!
02:42As the big man will start things off with Bronco Nima. 6'5", 300 pounds in his
02:48own right. As Otis backs Nima into the corner here. And once again Vic, listen to Calgary.
02:55Who doesn't like Otis? You not like Otis? Is that what you call it? You surprised so you don't like Otis.
03:02How do you not like Otis? Well that's what I meant. You're questioning the WWE
03:05universe and listen to this love like you're shocked it's Otis. This man can do
03:09the caterpillar. This man can bench a house. And he certainly looks very free
03:13inside that ring right here. And alongside Akira Tozawa looking to get
03:17the job done. As here comes Lucian Price for the first time. 6'3", 245 pounds.
03:22When you talk about OTM, as I mentioned team I've seen on NXT. Their running
03:27mate Jada Parker. They have to be happy for her. Otis by the way we've also seen
03:31recently on NXT pushing the North American champion Oba Fumi to the limit.
03:36And speaking of pushing, shoving OTM right around. Much to the delight of Maxine
03:41Dupree. Oh! This is some interesting innovative teamwork. A Tozawa spin!
03:49As Alpha Academy in control right here. Otis Awa. And again his bearings. You know I
03:57also think people forget how good Tozawa is. Think back to his time in Japan.
04:02How he's transformed himself. And now he's looking to fly! With a little help.
04:08Air Tozawa here on main event. As Alpha Academy starting to roll. And we're back
04:17here on main event. And Vic throughout the break it was a back-and-forth event.
04:21Yeah it certainly was. And as I was saying before the break Tozawa just
04:24checked back into the matchup. I think people forget how great Tozawa was in
04:28Japan. How he's transformed himself over the last several years. And along with a
04:31support system of Maxine and Otis. I mean do not let this trio start to build any...
04:37We'll never forget everything I just said. And shut right down by Lucian
04:42Price. Unreal strength. And now Vic take a look at Lucian in the background. Those
04:47animalistic like movements here. Let's take another look. Feel this. Tozawa trying to
04:51build some momentum and shut right down by Lucian Price. You know we've talked off
04:56air about Bronco and Price. And look Bronco had no structure growing up. I
05:01think that's something he's been very open about. He's always lived by his own
05:04rules because of that. For Lucian Price he's always been fighting for everything
05:09he has. He doesn't wait for it. This is the difference. He doesn't wait for it. He
05:13takes it. Look at the double team right here. And a big stomp by Bronco. You talk
05:19about Bronco from a young age really having to establish himself being the
05:23man of the house. Since essentially 12 years old. Lucian growing up in that
05:27larger physical household. Vic with those factors there. How dangerous does that make
05:31Lucian? I mean they've been beating people up their whole lives. I mean that's not
05:34something I'm just saying. They've been open about it. They've talked about it.
05:39They've talked about their upbringing, their childhood coming together. They've
05:42always had each other's back since the moment they met each other. And I think
05:46that goes a long way because they know no matter what happens good or the bad,
05:50they're always gonna have backup behind them. These two for the last decade plus
05:54have been about 15 minutes down the road from one another. Spent a lot of time
05:57together on and off the field. And Tozawa getting turned inside out. You see the
06:01look on Maxine's face right there into the cover. That's the outside leg. And
06:05Price only gets two. And Lucian Price once again showing that he's in a whole
06:10other dimension. Take another look at this. OTM just in absolute control of
06:17this matchup. And it's no remorse. That's the other thing about these two. They
06:21don't care what they do. They don't care what's gonna happen to their opponents.
06:25And Vic, you've seen front and center. You've been right there on NXT in the
06:28last couple of months. They've had the battles with the OC. Did OTM prove in
06:32those matchups? They have what it takes to hang with the absolute. They're here on
06:35Main Event, right? Right now they're hanging with the Academy. They can do
06:39anything they believe because they believe in themselves. Whether you like
06:42them or you don't like them. You like the attitude or you don't like the
06:46attitude. It is effective in the squared circle. As Bronco takes Tozawa on a G
06:50ride, only getting two. We just saw Maxine right there a couple of moments
06:54ago, Vic. How can Maxine really lift the spirits of both Tozawa and Otis after
06:58last week's tough loss on her? Well, look, for Maxine, I mean, she was hurt
07:01obviously with everything that's gone on over the last month or so with Ivy,
07:05Niall, but she's got to realize that's the nature of the WWE. It's a lesson
07:08learned. Not only with Ivy, you can also go back to Chad Gable. All three of
07:11these have been able to heal together. And that's what I think has brought them
07:15closer as a unit. But Maxine right now really has to rally the troops in this
07:19matchup because Tozawa needs to get out of this match in the worst way. What a
07:24counter there by the stamina monster. Big DDT. Now Tozawa looking right
07:29towards Lucian Price. But can he make the turn? To the big man. Otis, you see his shirt, he's ready to be free right here, Vic.
07:38Otis with that tree truck arm out. And here we go. And Otis, it picks up a bit.
07:46That's like a tank driving it 150 down the street. And the saddle dome
07:52becoming the playground for Otis right here. Forget about a tank, he's like a
07:55human bulldozer. And can that bulldozer become a caterpillar right in front of
08:00us? Down goes Bronco. Into Lucian. Over 550 pounds of destruction here by Otis.
08:15As the Alpha Academy. Give us a Canadian caterpillar. Into position. Those knees are
08:21knocking. That's a lot of wiggling. He's up and right down on Lucian Price. Into the
08:31cover. Oh, and Bronco breaks up the party. Always got each other's backs, but look
08:36at Tozawa. Keep your eyes on Akira Tozawa. Down goes Bronco Nima. And Alpha Academy
08:42starting to turn the corner. Oh, look at this teamwork. Into position. Tag was made, Tozawa's
08:48legal. An Otis bomb. Into the drop zone. And a big center. And the Alpha Academy finds some solace.
09:07Vic, we touched on it an emotionally charged couple of months for the Alpha Academy.
09:12But tonight, Otis and Tozawa standing tall here. What did I say earlier tonight?
09:16It only takes one. This is how you start to build momentum in the WWE. By picking up victories,
09:25just like the Academy did right here, right now, tonight. Otis with step one. Tozawa with step two.
09:32You see the incredible celebration. And a chef's kiss from Vaccine Dupree to close things out.
09:38And again, oh. Oh yeah. Hey. Vic, who's got the better dance moves here? Probably you. Look at
09:44you shaking up, you know. You're a lot like Shakira. You're hipster.
