00:00Two, two, five, two!
00:30Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
00:38The following contest scheduled for one fall is for the United States Championship!
00:48Introducing first, the challenger from Sacramento, California, weighted at 291 pounds!
01:00The Samoan Werewolf, Jacob Fatu!
01:09The question is, can Jacob Fatu follow in the footsteps of his family member, Jey Uso, who earlier tonight won the World Heavyweight Championship.
01:21Fatu seeking his first singles title here in WWE. Talk about unpredictable.
01:29Jacob Fatu does not view Jey Uso as a family member. Jacob Fatu is obsessed with winning gold for his family and ushering in a new era of Samoan dominance built in his own image.
01:45Jacob can say whatever he wants, but it's true.
01:47I know that his family is obviously very successful in this business.
01:52But whenever I say this guy might be the next one, I'm talking about the entire damn business, not just his family.
01:58This United States title match is brought to you by Wheatley American Vodka.
02:03Wheatley is the undisputed champ with Smooth, and it's ten times to seal, because cutting corners isn't American.
02:09Tonight they celebrate the superstars aiming to achieve their own American dream.
02:13Grab an American Mule today with Wheatley, the official vodka of WWE.
02:19Please enjoy responsibly.
02:21They're just teasing us, Wade.
02:22They're just teasing us, Wade.
02:23Look at Leslie, don't you worry.
02:24Look at Leslie, don't you worry.
02:25A little Vodka, Laird, Steve Leiser, Laird, and Jacob Fatu fight for a U.S. title.
02:36This dude's a dog.
02:38Notice that nobody in the audience is booing Jacob Fatu.
02:42They simply don't care.
02:44And look into those eyes on the pitiless soul that resides behind them, and you understand exactly why.
02:52Bite your tongues, or he'll bite them for you.
03:02L.A. Knight wants to deliver a major hit of his own.
03:05It's actually the times they are changing.
03:07That's not how I heard.
03:08I get your point.
03:10Fatu, L.A. Knight for the United States Championship.
03:14Dozens of WWE Hall of Famers have held the gold over the years.
03:18Of course, the very first was mentioned by Triple H in his Hall of Fame speech last night.
03:22The great Harley race.
03:24And tonight, L.A. Knight looks to retain.
03:26Jacob Fatu looks to win his first ever singles title in WWE.
03:31Jacob Fatu not scared of friendship.
03:33Coast to coast, coast to coast, he is.
03:36Let's go!
03:37Everything that you would want in a champion here at the WWE.
03:40Last night, L.A.
03:41I should say last month, L.A. Knight would knock off Shinsuke Nakamura.
03:46Go!
03:47Oh!
03:48Look at that!
03:49Nice neck breaker by Knight.
03:51This is Knight trying to end things quick, I think.
03:53He took a hell of a beat.
03:54Oh, went for the BFT and Fatu countered!
03:57And now Knight looking into the eyes of a werewolf.
04:02The game plan of L.A. Knight was perfect until Jacob Fatu had very different ideas and there is fear now in the eyes of the megastar.
04:11You know, wait, I was gonna ask you.
04:13Strategy for L.A. Knight against this crazy guy.
04:16Throw everything you can at the guy and hope whatever body weaknesses you have are not at.
04:21Oh!
04:22Pop up!
04:23Went too late.
04:24And the ribs of L.A. Knight, look how badly he had to grab them there.
04:28That's because of the beatdown last night.
04:30Oh, that spine of L.A. Knight, especially the entire midsection.
04:33Two matches, 24 hours before.
04:36This defense is absolute insanity.
04:39I love the megastar, but sometimes he is completely delusional with that confidence and he's gonna pay the price here.
04:46Jacob Fatu is just a crazy individual.
04:50This guy has done stints in prison.
04:52When he got out the last time, he said he was gonna change his life around.
04:56Slept on a mattress in an abandoned home for a number of months just to get an opportunity to try to do this.
05:03Get involved in combat sports and he's trying to make the most of it.
05:06Had to learn a lot of lessons on his road to right now.
05:09Well, you live that kind of lifestyle, it's gonna give you an insatiable hunger.
05:14That is the scariest part of Jacob Fatu.
05:17Went for the sunset flip and L.A. Knight moves out of harm's way.
05:21Mentally, he's ready. Physically, he's ready.
05:23Is tonight the night where he gets gold or is L.A. Knight?
05:26Oh, turn it into a cross-body lateral press kick out at two.
05:32That frenzy of energy that took over this stadium when the megastar arrived has completely been neutralized now.
05:40Yeah, from Maserati to now, it's a lot less boom.
05:43This is Jacob's WrestleMania debut.
05:46A couple of important points here, Wade.
05:48He's never been pinned or forced to submit in WWE.
05:51And he beat Braun Strowman in a last man standing match to earn this opportunity tonight.
05:57Yeah, it was a match that the whole world thought Braun Strowman was simply unbeatable in.
06:02It was a match that Braun Strowman has made his own over the past ten years.
06:07Enter Jacob Fatu.
06:08Rip up the record box.
06:10This guy is completely different to anything we've seen before.
06:13I mean, he's an uber athlete.
06:15He's got a killer instinct.
06:16Doesn't give a damn about anybody.
06:18His size and his proportion make him very tall to stop.
06:22And smart move by L.A. Knight.
06:23Go to the knee.
06:24Take out Fatu.
06:25L.A. Knight now with a basement drop kick.
06:26Drives Fatu outside the ring.
06:28Fatu, no stranger to the outside of the ring.
06:31And L.A. Knight now drives Fatu right between the announce tables.
06:35It was an ugly landing for L.A. Knight.
06:37Who may well have jarred those ribs once again.
06:40Caught the rope on the way through.
06:42Look at L.A. Knight.
06:43He's got about 3% body fat.
06:45The amount of work and discipline this man has to the craft of being our champion.
06:49It's certainly admirable.
06:50But he's in a dogfight with a hole.
06:51Look at that.
06:52Power slam.
06:53Caught Knight in midair.
06:54Fatu delivered it.
06:55Trying to win the United States Championship.
06:57Hooks the leg now.
06:59And a kick out.
07:00Jacob Fatu just has that intangible quality that terrifies and captivates in equal measures.
07:08A natural born fear factor for the entire locker room.
07:13Due to his abilities opponents before they even get in the ring with him.
07:17Went for the running senton and Knight desperately got the knees up to the spine of Fatu.
07:23Literally anything can happen with Jacob Fatu.
07:25He's athletic enough to be able to accomplish any move he wants to beat your ass.
07:29But then he can also ground and pound you out of here.
07:32You get the sense the game plan of L.A. Knight is gone.
07:34And now it's just a scramble for survival.
07:37L.A. Knight though, no stranger.
07:38Yes, had to fight.
07:39Oh, pop up Samoa and tried it again.
07:41This time Knight able to counter.
07:42Went to the well once too often.
07:44Well, maybe not.
07:45Oh, L.A. Knight, nice arm drag.
07:47What a move by L.A. Knight.
07:50How much is left in this tank of Knight?
07:52He simply can't follow it up.
07:54He can't follow it up, but he's getting a little bit of a breather.
07:57Yeah, but Wade, you're a five-time Intercontinental Champion.
08:00That's what being a champ's all about, right?
08:02Digging down when you have to.
08:03Ability to dig deep when it matters most.
08:06The problem is can you dig as deep as Jacob Fatu?
08:10That could be the opening.
08:11The answer, maybe yes.
08:12Yeah, Fatu went face first off the steel post.
08:14And now L.A. Knight with some body shots kicked out of the midsection.
08:17And Knight starting the attack on Fatu.
08:19That's our U.S. Champion.
08:25L.A. Knight into the corner with a running knee.
08:27And from looking sluggish to looking like a perpetual motion machine once again.
08:33A lot of yes in Las Vegas.
08:35Shoulder to the post.
08:39Now on the other side.
08:40And L.A. Knight starting to put the beating on Jacob Fatu.
08:44Knight now turns him inside out.
08:47L.A. Knight with an opportunity.
08:49L.A. Knight knew he was in for a fight and he was ready for it.
08:52Now he's going to the sky.
08:54Yeah.
08:55Top rope by Knight.
08:56Takes down Fatu.
08:57Big elbow cover for his retention.
09:00And Vegas did a kick out at two.
09:02Well, how clever was that of L.A. Knight adapting mid-air.
09:07Clearly Jacob Fatu was supposed to be lying flat on his back like most opponents.
09:13Gets up to his feet.
09:14But Knight still connects with that elbow.
09:17Just goes to show you simply can't keep Jacob Fatu down for long.
09:20And back again on the offense.
09:23L.A. Knight just threw his absolute best shot at Fatu.
09:28Fatu just has this beyond human ability to regenerate in record time.
09:33That's one of those lessons we talked about earlier.
09:36Top of this grid.
09:37And L.A. Knight, he knew it was coming.
09:39And again, Knight knows Fatu well.
09:41Great defense there.
09:43Great defense, but how do you follow it up when you're about to stuff it knocked out of you and your ribs are on fire?
09:49Go for broke, L.A. Knight.
09:51That's what he's trying to do here.
09:53Trying to hook Fatu.
09:54He's hung up on the top rope.
09:55Big elbow drops Knight.
09:56L.A. Knight now.
10:00Incredible athleticism.
10:02And he turns it around.
10:04Fatu face first.
10:05Knight for the win.
10:06What a move by L.A. Knight.
10:08Fatu kicks it two and a half.
10:10Senior official Charles Robinson was right there with the call.
10:15Incredible athleticism balance and raw power from the megastar.
10:21That really should have been enough.
10:23But Fatu once again equal to it.
10:26L.A. Knight at this stage of the match.
10:28Being able to jump all the way up to the top rope.
10:31It's that Kvorka that's thick in the air here in Las Vegas.
10:35Went for the BFT.
10:36The blunt force trauma.
10:37Fatu follows it up with a super kick.
10:39Drop side of the corner.
10:40L.A. is in trouble.
10:42Back him on up.
10:43Looking fresh as a daisy once again is Fatu.
10:46And again.
10:51Kvorka Rikishi.
10:52Just eating Fatu for dinner.
10:54In the late great Umaga.
10:56The nephew of both men is Jacob now.
10:58Heads out to the apron.
10:59Fatu heading up to the top rope.
11:01Jacob Fatu from the top.
11:03Swanton.
11:06For the United States Championship.
11:08Cover by Fatu.
11:09Kick out by Knight at two.
11:11What a match up for the United States title.
11:142.99 after Jacob Fatu did the unthinkable.
11:20With a beautiful maneuver.
11:22That swanton from the top.
11:23That really should have put the Megastar away.
11:26But the Megastar just grows into the brightest of spotlights.
11:31And it gets no brighter than WrestleMania.
11:34I don't know how the hell L.A. Knight still fight.
11:38First singles championship match in WWE for Fatu.
11:44L.A. Knight with much more experience when it comes to that at this level.
11:50Absolutely.
11:51Jacob Fatu just throwing head.
11:53But L.A. Knight as the crown's coming alive here.
11:55Split crown.
11:56Captivated by Jacob Fatu.
11:57And his insane abilities.
11:59Top rope moves.
12:00Oh!
12:01Caught him with a BFT!
12:02L.A. Knight with a BFT!
12:03On the attack.

12:36From unbelievable to unfortunate in the space of three seconds!
12:41A perfectly executed BFT!
12:45Against a flying opponent!
12:47Just landed so badly for L.A. Knight!
12:50Picked off!
12:51Jacob Fatu in the sky!
12:53That may have been L.A. Knight's last hurrah!
12:55Or was it?
12:56Well, Knight's still fighting back!
12:58Fatu is hurting in a big way here!
13:00Unsurprisingly after that BFT!
13:02A kick!
13:03L.A. Knight ribs!
13:04Ribs first on the top buckle!
13:07And now Fatu right to the small of the back!
13:10The ribs again!
13:11Wearing down the champion!
13:13Who would think of hitting a Centon in that position?
13:16Oh, Jacob Fatu, obviously!
13:18Oh, and there's a Samoan drop from the top!
13:21Every move so powerful and devastating!
13:23Fatu, top rope!
