00:00weakness on himself he fixes it and comes back stronger yeah Jey Uso has actually put on some
00:05muscle over the last few months he's got a new neck tap so physically he's different as well
00:09coming in here and I think what Gunther just realized was wait a minute Jey Uso can throw
00:14hands if he has to yeah real contrast in styles in this matchup Gunther is steadfast machine like
00:20he's he's redefined brutality here WWE for Jey Uso he's flashy he's quick he's a veteran
00:27looking to outsmart Gunther here tonight which I'm not sure you could do against the ring
00:31general well Gunther leaves no stone unturned in his preparation especially for the biggest matches
00:38here at Wrestlemania Jey Uso simply cannot outmaneuver the champ physically side headlock
00:44and Pat if you're Gunther you want to try to ground and pound Uso tonight absolutely Gunther's trying to
00:49pound everything in sight big shoulder tackle Uso with his quickness moves out of the way
00:53and Jey Uso with a shoulder tackle of his own shot by Gunther yeah those are going to be the
00:59equalizers here and a step up in Zaguri drops the champ again and again Gunther has to roll out
01:05of the way and try to reassess this situation step up in Zaguri gives Jey a little bit of peace here
01:10well here's the shocking moment that huge shot from Gunther there Jey just ate it it rattled him but he
01:16didn't go down that has surprised the big Austrian the dominant champion who's held the title 80 percent of
01:22his career in WWE 870 days as the NXT UK champ 666 days as the intercontinental champion 258 days now
01:32as the world champ since winning back at SummerSlam one thing Gunther has to do Pat is not allow the
01:41crowd to get into this match yeah you watch him just take a step back there once the eating started here
01:46in Las Vegas and maybe it is in his head a little bit that the whole stadium is against him being a
01:51former NFL player explain to us the importance of the momentum of the crowd to help your team yeah
01:57momentum's a real thing stats and analytics don't really know how to explain it but if the vibes are
02:01good and they're going oh confidence is hot not enough and Gunther into the cover now Jey forced to
02:07kick out I'm not sure you want to try to overpower Gunther here yeah and I guess you're overestimating
02:11the importance of crowd noise when it comes to Gunther a lot of people yes it will affect Gunther is just
02:17built so different he's got the granite mindset noise from the peanut gallery is not going to affect
02:23him at all well talk about noise the chops to Jey's chest tonight that people are going to hear
02:28maybe for the first time alarming but that right-handed that Austrian man can do
02:33body slam from Jey Uso
02:45and now Gunther backing up into the corner again and Jey Uso caught him and Jey now starting to roll
02:54Gunther the champion could be in some trouble Gunther was not expecting oh that chop will stop Jey in his
03:00tracks as he tumbles and falls to the floor that's what I was talking about just moments ago
03:06it's been flurries it's been a hundred miles an hour from Jey Uso it has rattled the champ
03:12on occasion but one killer blow like that changes everything and again another look at this chop
03:18it's his finisher boom if he hits it it could be over some medium and remember guys no hurry for
03:25Gunther here he's got the champion's advantage Jey must pin or submit Gunther to win the title and
03:31this is the pace that Gunther likes it was that hundred miles an hour stuff from Jey Uso that was
03:36playing into Uso's game plan now this is all back to the drawing board Gunther goes 6-4
03:432-2-50 in Vienna Austria and that big uppercut drops Jey again and now it almost feels like Pat that
03:49Gunther's starting to settle in yeah this is right where Gunther likes to be you're he's in complete
03:55control you are at his mercy and he's chopping and thumping your body down and if you were Jey Uso
04:02so wait this is what you had to try to avoid yeah absolutely you asked him to one three weeks
04:07oh ago Jey Uso had zero chance in this match all that's changed in the meantime is a couple of
04:13fired up speeches from Jey Uso physically he's exactly the same and now he's getting dominated
04:19by Gunther this was inevitable you don't think that affected Gunther emotionally at all
04:23until the bell rings and then something switches in the mind of Gunther and this version appears
04:31and now the match settling in to the point where I believe many people thought this match would be
04:36that the dominance of Gunther didn't want to believe wanted to believe in Jey and Jey with a spear
04:40he caught him out of midair with a spear chance now to steal a win over Gunther who's got to kick it
04:46too now if you're the champion Wade that's going to knock you all out of sorts yeah and if everything
04:49you're saying Wade is true then Jey Uso didn't just spear Gunther out of his boots and almost win the
04:55title right here in Las Vegas take another look at this spear connects to perfection but to be honest
05:00Gunther absorbed it kicked out at exactly the right moment keeps the match alive and really
05:07Jey Uso took too long to follow it up you gotta wonder if Jey got all that spear
05:12with full momentum but Jey's still fighting back and Gunther seems to be on his heels a bit here
05:18in case Jey Uso's back in charge
05:21wow never mind the biggest equalizer in the game throw whatever you want at Gunther
05:29oh wait a second look at the power bomb and Jey turned it in with Samoa drop great counter by Jey's
05:34been beaten by that power bomb before I'll tell you this Jey Uso is as locked in as I have ever seen him
05:40I go back 16 years with that guy this is a very different more combative version of Jey Uso
05:46referee Sean Bennett the official in this world championship matchup Gunther now will not allow
05:52Uso to get to the top rope Gunther will meet him there however and now the world champion
05:57looking to take control hooking Uso top rope now for Gunther into that suplex driving Jey Uso across the
06:03ring there's a throw off the top rope and there's a dinosaur drop kick by the gargantuan Gunther who now
06:10looks to put Uso away with a power bomb and this is what we are afraid of stacks him up for the win
06:15and the retention and a kick out at two by Jey how did Jey kick out of that well Gunther is transforming
06:24the game before our eyes no one in history has stacked heavy offense in a row quite like Gunther this
06:31was the final piece in the puzzle the high stack power bomb final piece until it wasn't Jey Uso still
06:38has some resolve left in him what a night tonight at Allegiant Stadium we kick off Wrestlemania
06:43Saturday with a world heavyweight title on the line over 60,000 will be in this building tonight
06:49in Las Vegas absolutely electrifying atmosphere Wrestlemania weekends are a must do for any human
06:58with breath it's been a wild 24 hours already
07:04right hand big slap by Gunther drops Jey again and now Gunther looking to deliver yet another power bond to Jey Uso
07:14Jey is turning around with a nice lot and now Jey Uso spear again spear again by Jey Jey's got Gunther hurt Gunther's down Jey Uso is going to look to go up top is it Jey's moment is it Jey's opportunity Jey from the top rope
07:28the frog splash connecting cover Gunther kicks at it too well they've both now dropped their heaviest artillery and it simply hasn't worked
07:41Gunther got the second bite of the Jerry Jey beats him to the punch with his spear this time following it up with that iconic splash
07:50but Gunther is the champ for a reason and this one lives on and it's interesting because both the men have hit their
07:56their finishers their their Uso splash and the power bomb and you got to believe is frustrating starting
08:03frustration I should say starting to set in for Gunther what the hell's Gunther doing
08:07he's taking his bat and ball and going home
08:09Gunther has grabbed his world title
08:13and Jey Uso now and look at the referee
08:24Bennett had a duck out of the way and Gunther used the belts as a weapon
08:27Jey Uso with a belt to the face
08:30Gunther now going up to the top rope
08:32Gunther with a splash
08:34Gunther looking to retain and steal this matchup
08:37kick out by Jey
08:38oh the hell is there anything left of Jey Uso
08:42and now the frustration is setting in Wade
08:45Gunther realized that was his opportunity
08:48and now now locking in
08:50the sleeper the choke is locked in
08:52this looks very similar to what was happening to Jimmy a couple weeks ago
08:55indeed and Jey Uso was forced to watch
08:57as his brother was choked out a bloody mess
09:00in the center of the ring
09:01WWE fans try to rally
09:03Jey Uso some way
09:05somehow Jey trying to make it to the rope
09:08Gunther gonna turn it around now
09:09and lock it in
09:10the eyes of Jey Uso slowly fading
09:13this is the last roll of the dice
09:15if he can't get to that rope
09:17Jey trying to make it to the rope
09:18Gunther doing a nice job blocking
09:19oh no
09:20drags Jey back to the center of the ring
09:22and now it's just a matter of time
09:24squeezing the soul out of the body of Jey Uso
09:28still scrambling
09:29Jey made it to the ropes
09:31great move by Jey
09:31made it to the ropes
09:32the official gives Gunther a 5 to break
09:35I thought that was it Wade
09:37I thought Gunther was gonna do
09:39what he's done so many times in the past
09:41and that's just make
09:42Jey Uso go night
09:45night
09:45well he ain't night night quite yet
09:47but things are getting incredibly close
09:50Gunther screaming at Uso
09:58obviously frustrated
10:01trying to figure out what he needs to do
10:04to put Jey away
10:05a couple of vicious knees
10:07to the jaw of Jey Uso
10:09and another chop
10:10and Gunther's ticked off right now
10:12you get hit with a title
10:13your brain is scrambled
10:15Jey Uso at this point
10:16completely defenseless
10:18and starting to question
10:20the likelihood of Jey Uso's
10:21ongoing aliveness
10:23you saw the official Sean Bennett again
10:25checking on Jey Uso
10:27and Jey says just bring it
10:28and now another chop by Gunther
10:30Uso is laughing
10:31Jey Uso is laughing
10:33at the chops from Gunther
10:35Jey Uso said
10:36do you know the family I grew up in
10:38you think you're gonna be able to out-tough me
10:39and another one
10:41walked right into that
10:42drops Jey to the knees
10:43not sure that was wise
10:44but to your point
10:45Jey might not have a clue where he's at
10:46you can laugh
10:47oh all you want
10:48imminently Jey Uso
10:50is gonna start looking like Jimmy did
10:52several weeks ago
10:53that's a really good point
10:54Gunther promised he would bloody
10:56and bludgeon and batter
10:58Jey Uso in this match tonight
11:00Gunther waiting for Jey to get back to his feet
11:03oh Jey back to his feet
11:05nice blow by Uso
11:06world champ
11:07looks on the left arm
11:08and a shot to Jey
11:10caving the
11:11and another turn
11:12drops the challenger
11:15at this point Jey Uso
11:17clearly is not thinking
11:19like the normal Jey Uso
11:21and the referee needs to keep a close eye on this
11:24part of the job of the referee
11:25is to protect competitors
11:27when they can't protect themselves
11:28it's a championship fight
11:30Jey Uso is nowhere near quitting
11:32Jey fighting back
11:38there's been some physical
11:40vicious championship matches
11:42in all genres here
11:43in Las Vegas over the years
11:45Gunther and Jey now
11:47exchanging blows
11:48like massive heavyweights
11:50in the middle of the ring
11:51what's gonna get here
11:52and Gunther with a clothesline
11:55Jey still at his feet
11:56a clothesline to Gunther as well
11:59Jey still standing tall
12:01and that'll knock the champ down
12:07Jey Uso looking like a man possessed
12:13this one
12:15through a toughness war
12:18with Gunther in one
12:20we talked about it on the countdown show
12:22you never know
12:23when you're ever gonna get another opportunity
12:24at the world championship
12:25you gotta take it when you can
12:27and now Gunther from behind
12:29the choke now on Uso
12:30able to duck from underneath
12:31nice German suplex by Jey
12:33Jey taking a minute
12:37but he can't take too long
12:38Gunther will take advantage
