SCOTT: THE SUPERHERO COMES  
GUNNING FOR LESNAR'S TITLE AND  
COULD THROW A GIANT FORK IN THE 
ROAD TO WRESTLEMANIA. 
CHARLY: A WWE HALL OF FAMER,  
GOLDBERG CAME TO "SMACKDOWN" TO 
ANSWER THE QUESTION WHO IS  
NEXT? 
THE ANSWER, "THE FIEND" BRAY  
WYATT AND GOES AGAINST THE  
FIEND FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP. 
SCOTT: THE TAG TEAM 
CHAMPIONSHIP UP FOR GRABS AS  
MURPHY FACES OFF AGAINST THE  
STREET PROFITS AND THE MESSIAH  
LOOKING TO CLEAR THE SMOKE AND  
LEAVE THE TAG TEAM TITLES IN  
TOW.
CHARLY: SIX MEN LOOKING TO RUN  
THE GAUNTLET AND TAKE HOME THE  
SYMBOL OF TRUTH WHICH IS THE  
TUWAIQ TROPHY.
THE SHOWDOWN AT THE TOP OF THE  
HOUR. 
SCOTT: IN MERE MOMENTS ON 
SUPERSHOWDOWN KICKOFF WE'LL 
TAKE YOU TO RIYADH FOR TAG TEAM 
ACTION AS THE GALLOWS GO  
AGAINST ANDERSON. 
GARZA-CARRILLO, THE FAMILY  
FEUD.

TO EVEN THE SHOW. 
SCOTT: BAYLEY WILL MAKE HISTORY 
BECOMING THE FIRST WOMAN TO PUT 
HER TITLE ON THE LINE GOING 
AGAINST NAOMI FOR THE 
"SMACKDOWN" WOMEN'S 
CHAMPIONSHIP. 
CHARLY: THE "SMACKDOWN" TAG 
TEAM TITLES ON THE LINE AS THE  
NEW DAY FADES OFF AGAINST THE 
MIZ AND MORRISON. 
BUT KOFI KINGSTON ISN'T GIVING  
UP WITHOUT A FIGHT. 
SCOTT: A CROWN JEWEL HOMETOWN 
FAVORITE MANSOOR TOOK CONTROL 
IN THE ACTION.
TODAY IN SUPERSHOWDOWN, MANSOOR 
LOOKS TO DO THE SAME AGAINST  
DOLPH ZIGGLER.

THERE BECAUSE NEXT MONTH'S  
PAY-PER-VIEW, ELIMINATION 
CHAMBER, THE LAST PAY-PER-VIEW  
BEFORE WRESTLEMANIA, ALSO FREE  
FOR NEW SUBSCRIBERS.
WE HAVE ONE MORE MATCH WE NEED  
TO GET TO TONIGHT, THE CONFLICT 
BETWEEN THE BIG DOG AND WWE'S 
RESIDENT MONARCH CONTINUES TO 
GROW MORE AND MORE BRUTAL AS  
EACH DAY PASSES.
TONIGHT ROMAN REIGNS AND BARON  
CORBIN WILL GO TO WAR IN A  
DANGEROUS STEEL CAGE MATCH  
WHERE NO ONE INTERFERES AND ONE 
SUPERSTAR WILL BE ABLE TO 
EMERGE VICTORIOUS.
>> 2019 WAS A BLESSED YEAR. 
BUT IT ENDED A BIT ROUGH. 
I'VE BEEN OUTNUMBERED, I'VE 
BEEN JUMPED.
AND I'VE EVERY BEEN EMBARRASSED 
BY CORBIN AND HIS CREW. 
>> CORBIN SHOWERING REIGNS IN 
DOG FOOD. 
>> KING CORBIN PROMISED 
HUMILIATION.
>> HUNGRY!
HUNGRY! 
>> THIS TIME -- 
>> WAIT A SECOND. 
RUD AND ZIEGLER STOMPING ON 
REIGNS. 
>> I NEEDED THE HELP OF MY  
FAMILY. 
>> OH, GOD! 
>> MY FAMILY HELPED ME OUT IN A 
MAJOR WAY, I WANT CORBIN'S ASS  
ALL OVER THAT BASEBALL STADIUM. 
>> ALL OVER THE DUGOUT AT 
MINUTE MAID PARK. 
>> COVER! 
>> 2020 IS MY YEAR! 
>> SAVE IT! 
>> YOU KNOW FOR A FACT WITHOUT  
THE HELP OF YOUR COUSINS YOU  
COULDN'T HAVE BEATEN ME.
SO TONIGHT I DEMANDED A SIX-MAN 
TAG MATCH AND THE THREE OF YOU  
WILL PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID.
>> WE GET SET FOR OUR MAIN  
EVENT.
>> CORBIN ZIEGLER AND RUUD, 
LOSER EATS DOG FOOD.
SPY BUSTER BY ROBIN RUDE. 
ZIEGLER, DEEP SIX, KICK-OUT IN  
TWO.
ROMAN REIGNS SURVIVES.
>> CORBIN, BREAK THE SPEAR. 
>> ROLLUP BY REIGNS, SHOULDERS  
ARE DOWN. 
LET HIM EAT DOG FOOD. 
THE KING'S EATING DOG FOOD. 
>> IT'S THREE-ON-ONE! 
>> HE'S SHACKLING CORBIN. 
TRYING TO FIGHT HIS WAY OUT.
>> NO, THIS IS NOT NECESSARY. 
>> OH, MY GOD!
>> CORBIN!
>> COVERED IN DOG FOOD. 
>> NO!
>> ANOTHER BUCKET OF SLOP.
>> LAST WEEK WAS AN 
ABOMINATION.
>> OH, THAT'S FUNNY BEING 
HUMILIATED WITH DOG FOOD, ISN'T 
IT? 
YOU ENJOY THAT, DIDN'T YOU? 
ROMAN REIGNS CAN'T DO ANYTHING  
WITHOUT HIS LITTLE LAP DOGS.
I DEMAND ONE MORE MATCH WITH  
ROMAN REIGNS. 
>> SUPERMAN BY REIGNS.
>> NOW CORBIN IS GOING TO 
RETREAT AND RUN AWAY. 
>> IF THE COWARD WANTS ONE MORE 
MATCH HE'S GOT IT.
TELL YOUR BOYS TO STAY HOME 
BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO DO IT  
INSIDE A STEEL CAGE.
YOU'RE GOING TO KNOW WHO THE  
MAN AROUND HERE IS. 
>> THIS COULD BE CATASTROPHIC 
FOR THE FINAL TIME, KING  
CORBIN-ROMAN REIGNS INSIDE A  
STEEL CAGE. 
CHARLY: WE HAVE A STEEL CAGE  
MATCH.
HOW IMPORTANT IS THE  
STIPULATION AND WHO DOES IT 
PLAY MORE TO? 
DAVID: I THINK THIS FAVORS  
ROMAN REIGNS. 
WHAT'S INTERESTING IS BARON 
CORBIN ASKED FOR THE  
STIPULATION AND HE SAID BECAUSE 
ROMAN CAN'T BEAT HIM WITHOUT  
OUTSIDE HELP. 
WHICH IS INTERESTING BECAUSE  
CORBIN ONLY DEFEATED REIGNS 
WITH OUTSIDE HELP.
THIS IS WHAT WE CALL PROJECTION 
IN PSYCHOLOGY, PROJECTING YOUR  
INSECURITIES ON TO OTHERS.
I THINK IT WAS A MISTAKE TO ASK 
FOR A STEEL CAGE MATCH ON 
CORBIN'S PART.
REIGNS WILL EAT HIM UP. 
SCOTT: WE'VE SEEN THE DOG FOOD  
MATCHES AND THE FALLS AND SEEN  
CORBIN THROWN INTO A  
PORT-A-JOHN WHICH IS WORSE THAN 
THE DOG FOOD TO ME. 
CORBIN SAID THE "SMACKDOWN" 
LOCKER ROOM LOST ALL RESPECT  
FOR ROMAN REIGNS. 
THAT'S CORBIN TRYING TO GET 
INTO HIS HEAD BUT THAT HAS TO 
PLAY IN ROMAN'S MIND. 
HOW MUCH DOES THAT FUEL ROMAN 
REIGNS TO HAVE THAT RESPECT OF  
A LOCKER ROOM?
DAVID: IT FUELS HIM A LOT.
ROMAN PRIDES HIMSELF ON BEING A 
LOCKER ROOM LEADER AND DON'T  
CALL HIM THE GUY FOR NOTHING. 
EVERYONE LOOKS UP TO HIM. 
THAT IS SOMETHING THAT FUELS  
HIM VERY MUCH.
A WIN OVER CORBIN TONIGHT 
DECISIVELY COULD CEMENT HIS 
PLACE BACK AS LOCKER ROOM 
LEADER. 
CHARLY: THIS RIVALRY IS 
NEVER-ENDING AND ALWAYS 
SOMETHING NEW COMING UP, CRAZY  
THINGS BEING ADDED TO THE 
RIVALRY.
WILL THIS BE IT?
THE WINNER TONIGHT DOES IT  
DEFINE THE WINNER THIS RIVALRY  
AND DO WE MOVE ON FROM THIS?
DAVID: IT DEPENDS BECAUSE FOR 
BOTH THESE GUYS IT'S BECOME SO  
PERSONAL, IT'S HARD FOR EITHER  
ONE TO LET IT GO. 
I FEEL LIKE ROMAN FINALLY HAS 
THE BETTER OF CORBIN BUT CORBIN 
CAN'T LET IT GO.
WHO KNOWS, AS LONG AS IT'S  
DECISIVE WE'LL HAVE A END TO  
IT. 
SCOTT: FIVE SECONDS OR MORE,  
GIVE ME A NAME. 
DAVID: REIGNS.
CHARLY: I WOULD SAY THE SAME  
THING.
SCOTT: IT'S GOING TO BE GREAT.
NO OUTSIDE INTERFERENCES. 
CHARLY: YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT CAN 
HAPPEN IN WWE BUT I DON'T THINK 
SO. 
WE HAVE ANOTHER BIG MATCH GOING 
ON, THE GAUNTLET MATCH. 
SCOTT: THERE IT IS, THE TUWAIQ  
TROPHY THAT GOES TO THE WINNER  
OF THE GAUNTLET MATCH COMING UP 
THIS AFTERNOON ON THE SHOWDOWN. 
SOMEONE IS LEAVING WITH THE 
PRESTIGIOUS HARDWARE AND THE  
FIRST EVER TUWAIQ TROPHY MATCH. 
CHARLY: LET'S SEND THINGS OVER  
TO RIYADH.
>> PLEASE WELCOME ONE OF THE  
COMPETITORS IN THE TUWAIQ 
TROPHY GAUNTLET MATCH, A.J. 
STYLES. 
A.J., HOW READY ARE YOU FOR A 
DAUNT LET MATCH IN WHICH YOU  
MAY HAVE TO DEFEAT UP TO FIVE 
OTHER SUPERSTARS IN ORDER TO  
WIN?
A.J.: I DON'T CARE IF I HAVE TO 
GO THROUGH ONE SUPERSTAR. 
I DON'T CARE IF I HAVE TO GO  
THROUGH FIVE SUPERSTARS.
I DON'T CARE IF I HAVE TO GO  
THROUGH 100 SUPERSTARS. 
DON'T GET ME WRONG, THESE 
COMPETITORS IN THE GAUNTLET 
MATCH ARE GREAT BUT THERE'S 
ONLY ONE THAT'S PHENOMENAL. 
COME ON, BYRON, YOU KNOW HOW  
HUMBLE I AM.
EVERYONE IS STARTING TO CALL ME 
HUMBLE STYLES.
I DON'T CARE WHO I'D HAVE TO GO 
THROUGH.
I'M TALKING ABOUT R-TRUTH AND 
"STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN,  
ROMAN REIGNS, SHAWN MICHAELS, 
ALISTER BLACK, I'LL DEAL WITH 
HIM NEXT WEEKEND ON "MONDAY 
NIGHT RAW" BUT THAT'S NOT MY  
CONCERN.
MY CONCERN IS THE GAUNTLET  
TROPHY. 
I HAVE TO GET IT HOME TO  
WRESTLEMANIA TO CELEBRATE WITH  
THE BEST TAG TEAM IN THE WORLD. 
WE'RE GOING TO TOAST IT UP, YOU 
KNOW. 
WE'RE THE OFFICIAL, THE 
ORIGINAL, THE ONLY CLUB THAT  
MATTERS.
THE O.C.
CHARLY: HUMBLE STYLES, IS 
ANYONE BUYING THAT NICKNAME?
SCOTT: DOES HE REALIZE HOW  
HEAVY THE TROPHY IS.
DAVID: HE HAS FRIENDS TO HELP 
HIM CARRY IT. 
SCOTT: DAVE, LISTEN, THAT WAS A 
NICE LIST OF SUPERSTARS HE  
MENTIONED BUT THE ONLY ONE ON 
THE LIST THAT'S IN THE MATCH IS 
FORMER 24/7 MATCH R-TRUTH.
IT COMES DOWN TO THE LUCK OF  
THE DRAW, EVERYONE IS GOING AT  
IT ONE-ON-ONE AND COMES DOWN TO 
LUCK OF THE DRAW AND DON'T KNOW 
WHO COMES ON FIRST OR SECOND  
YET BUT IF WE HAD TO GO WITH  
ONE OF THOSE SUPERSTARS WHO IS  
IN, WHO DO YOU GIVE THE 
ADVANTAGE TO? 
DAVID: IT'S HARD IT.
IT REALLY COMES DOWN TO WHAT  
PLACE BECAUSE YOU WOULD THINK 
IT WOULD BENEFIT TO YOU COME  
DOWN LATER. 
I'M GOING WITH A GUY LIKE REY 
MYSTERIO JUST IN CASE HE CAME 
OUT EARLY, HE'S PROVEN TIME AND 
TIME AGAIN HE'S A GUY THAT CAN  
LAST THROUGH A LONG MATCH LIKE  
THIS. 
DEFEAT A BUNCH OF SUPERSTARS. 
HE'D BE THE GUY.
CHARLY: DO YOU FORESEE  
SUPERSTARS TEAMIN UP TO TAKE 
OUT ANOTHER COMPETITOR? 
DAVID: I THINK IT WOULD BE  
DIFFICULT FOR THAT TO HAPPEN SO 
I WOULD SAY PROBABLY NOT. 
I THINK IT WILL BE EVERYBODY IS 
OUT THERE TRYING TO ELIMINATE 
THE GUY IN THERE WITH HIM AND 
JUST LAST AS LONG AS THEY CAN.
THEY WANT TO BE THE LAST MAN AT 
THE END.
SCOTT: YOU KNOW WHAT I WAS  
INTERESTED IN, IT'S A SEXY PICK 
TO GO WITH THE SUPERSTAR THAT 
COMES OUT LAST BUT IS THERE AN  
ADVANTAGE TO BEING IN THE RING  
FOR A COUPLE DIFFERENT MATCHES  
AND YOU GET ON THAT ROLL AND  
NOTHING OFF A COUPLE OTHER GUYS 
AND THE GUY COMING IN, MAYBE HE 
COMES IN A LITTLE COLDER. 
DAVID: THERE IS AN ADVANTAGE. 
MOMENTUM PLAYS SUCH A BIG DEAL  
IN WWE. 
WITHIN A MATCH, CAN YOU HAVE A  
GUY THAT COMES OUT IN THE 
MIDDLE AND HAS A BIG  
ELIMINATION AND ANOTHER ONE AND 
THE NEXT THING IT'S UP AND HE'S 
ON A ROLL AND HE COMES DOWN 
COLD AND STEPPING IN WITH 
SOMEONE ON FIRE AND IT WILL BE  
TOUGH.
CHARLY: WHAT WILL THIS WIN DO 
FOR THE COMPETITOR WHO WINS?
WILL IT ELEVATE THEIR CAREER TO 
A DIFFERENT LEVEL, WHAT WILL IT 
DO? 
DAVID: ABSOLUTELY ELEVATE THEM  
TO ANOTHER LEVEL. 
IT'S THE FIRST TIME THEY'RE 
HAVING THE TUWAIQ TROPHY. 
IT WILL BE SOMETHING PEOPLE 
WILL TALK ABOUT FOR YEARS TO  
COME AND WELL BOOST THEIR 
CONFIDENCE AND STOCK AND  
POSITION ON THE ROSTER. 
SCOTT: WHOEVER WINS IT WILL 
COST MORE THAN 50 POUNDS, 
CHARLY AND WILL COST YOU MORE 
TO GET ON THE PLANE.
THERE WILL BE AN EXTRA CHARGE.
CHARLY: MAKE IT WELL WORTH IT.
SOMETHING ELSE SOMEONE WILL BE  
TALKING ABOUT IS THE WWE  
CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH. 
SEND THINGS TO PAUL HEYMAN, HIS 
CLIENT BROCK LESNAR TAKING ON 
RICOCHET TONIGHT FOR THE SAME 
TITLE.
PAUL: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, MY  
NAME IS PAUL HEYMAN, THE  
ADVOCATE FOR THE REIGNING 
DEFENDING UNDISPUTED WWE  
HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE 
WORLD BROCK LESNAR! 
THE SAME BROCK LESNAR THAT WILL 
MAIN EVENT WRESTLEMANIA AGAINST 
DREW MCINTYRE UNLESS THE  
GREATEST UPSET IN THE HISTORY 
OF WORLD WRESTLING  
ENTERTAINMENT HAPPENS TONIGHT 
AT SUPERSHOWDOWN. 
I KNOW, PLEASE, DON'T TELL ME 
AND DON'T INTERRUPT ME EITHER,  
DON'T TELL ME, I KNOW WHAT  
YOU'RE THINKING, RICOCHET 
DOESN'T STAND A CHANCE. 
AND BLUNTLY AGAINST BROCK 
LESNAR, RICOCHET DOES NOT STAND 
A CHANCE. 
BUT THE 1980 UNITED STATES  
HOCKEY TEAM DIDN'T STAND A  
CHANCE AGAINST THE RUSSIANS.
OK. 
THEY WERE ALL AMATEURS. 
IT'S THE OLYMPICS WHICH NOBODY  
GIVES A CRAP ABOUT BUT STILL IT 
WAS AN UPSET. 
THE UNDERTAKER CAN NEVER LOSE 
AT WRESTLEMANIA BUT THE FIRST 
WRESTLEMANIA IN THE WWE NETWORK 
THE UNDERTAKER LOST AND TO WHOM 
DID HE LOSE?
BROCK LESNAR. 
MIKE TYSON COULD NOT BE KNOCKED 
OUT?
WHO KNOCKED OUT MIKE TYSON? 
NO, IT WASN'T BROCK LESNAR  
THOUGH IT COULD HAVE WAS JAMES  
"BUSTER" DOUGLAS AND THEY'RE  
THINKING AND FANTTIZING BUT 
TONIGHT RICOCHET WILL PULL OFF  
THE SAME UPSET AGAINST BROCK  
LESNAR AND GO ON TO 
WRESTLEMANIA IN DREW MCINTYRE 
AND IT WON'T HAPPEN BECAUSE 
BROCK LESNAR DOESN'T PLAY INTO  
YOUR FANTASIES. 
BROCK LESNAR IS THE REALITY.
BROCK LESNAR IS THE STRAIGHT  
SHOT AGAINST A HOPELESS 
RICOCHET. 
AND IF I WERE RICOCHET AND I'M  
SO THANKFUL THAT I'M NOT, I 
WOULD TAKE THAT VERY  
PERSONALLY. 
AS SOMETHING DIRECT FROM YOUR 
HUMBLE ADVOCATE AND THE 
REIGNING, DEFENDING, UNDISPUTED 
WWE HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE 
WORLD BROCK LESNAR! 
SCOTT: ALL THE PROGNOSTICATORS  
AND ANALYSTS, NOBODY GIVING 
RICOCHET A SHOT IN THIS MATCH.
WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT LATER BUT 
DAVE, ARE WE LOOKING AT A 
MIRACLE IF HE PULL THIS IS OFF? 
DAVID: EVERYBODY IS COUNTING  
RICOCHET OFF AND ALL THOSE  
MATCHUPS PAUL MENTIONED IS THEY 
ALL ESTIMATED -- UNDERESTIMATED 
THEIR OPPONENT. 
IT COULD BE A MIRACLE UPSET.
SCOTT: MORE ON THE CHAMPIONSHIP 
MATCH COMING UP LATER ON IN THE 
PROGRAM.
CHARLY: THERE'S A LOT TO LOOK 
FORWARD TO AT SUPERSHOWDOWN.
WE GO BACK TO RIYADH TO HEAR  
FROM THE MIZ AND MORRISON TO  
HEAR ABOUT THEIR TAG TEAM TITLE 
MATCH.
>> TONIGHT MIZ AND MORRISON,  
THE MOST BLOCKBUSTER FRANCHISE  
DUO IS BACK TOGETHER AGAIN  
COMPETING FOR THE "SMACKDOWN" 
TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP.
>> I COULDN'T THINK OF A BETTER 
WAY TO KICK OFF THE GREATEST  
COMEBACK IN WWE HISTORY THAN A  
WIN OVER THE NEW DAY. 
>> WE COULD WIN AN ESPY FOR 
THIS. 
OR OFF A SLAMMY.
>> OR A MTV AWARD FOR BEST OF 
COMEBACK. 
>> NOT A COMEBACK BUT A REBOOT, 
A RENAISSANCE OF TAG TEAM 
WRESTLING BECAUSE IN LIFE THERE 
ARE WINNERS AND LOSERS. 
WE'RE THE GREATEST TAG TEAM OF  
THE 21ST CENTURY. 
BE JEALOUS! 
SCOTT: I'M JEALOUS. 
CHARLY: THIS IS GOOD. 
DO THEY HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO 
BE CHAMPIONS TOGETHER AGAIN?
DAVID: THEY DEFINITELY DO.
LOOK AT THEM, THEY'RE IN INK  
MORE THAN JUSTIN -- MORE IN 
SYNC THAN JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE.
BUT THESE GUYS ARE FORMER TAG 
TEAM CHAMPIONS WITH GREAT 
CHEMISTRY.
WHAT I LIKE THE MOST IS 
MORRISON HAS COME BACK AND  
REINVIGORATED THE MIZ.
IT'S THE MIZ OF OLD AND WON THE 
CHAMPIONSHIP, IN MY OPINION THE 
BEST VERSION OF MIZ.
I'M EXCITED TO SEE WHERE THEY 
GO WITH THIS. 
SCOTT: KOFI AND BIG E HAVE BEEN 
IN THIS SPOT MANY TIMES BEFORE, 
MORRISON HAS BEEN IMPRESSIVE IN 
HIS RETURN, DAVE. 
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE TWO TEAMS  
NOW, WHO HAS THE MOMENTUM 
COMING IN TO TODAY AT 
SUPERSHOWDOWN?
DAVID: YOU KNOW, I'M GOING WITH 
THE MIZ AND MORRISON. 
CHARLY: I AGREE.
DAVID: THE NEW DAY ARE ARGUABLY 
THE GREATEST TAG TEAM OF THE  
MODERN ERA. 
THAT'S JUST IS WHAT IT IS.
HOWEVER, THEY'RE NOT HUNGRY.
THEY'VE GOTTEN USED TO BE TAG 
TEAM CHAMPIONS. 
BUT MIZ AND MORRISON ARE  
HUNGRY. 
CHARLY: COM POLICENT, IF YOU  
WILL. 
DAVID: I WILL, I WILL.
CHARLY: COMPLACENT, IF YOU  
WILL. 
DAVID: I LIKE THE TWO TOGETHER. 
ONE THING THAT MAKES THE NEW  
DAY SO EFFECTIVE IS THEIR 
CHEMISTRY.
THEY'RE GOOD FRIENDS AND BEEN 
TOGETHER FOR A LONG TIME AND  
KNOW EACH OTHER REALLY WELL.
MIZ AND MORRISON ARE BEST 
FRIENDS, ALSO.
THEY'VE KNOWN EACH OTHER FOR A  
LONG TIME.
JUST LIKE THE NEW DAY, IT'S 
ALMOST LIKE THEY'RE A 
BUSINESSES AREO VERSION, ALL -- 
BIZARRO VERSION.
CHARLY: THE NEW DAY KNOW EACH 
OTHER SO WELL AND MIZ AND 
MORRISON KNOW EACH OTHER SO 
WELL. 
BUT WE'VE SEEN SHIFTED IN MIZ'S 
DEMEANOR SINCE MORRISON 
RETURNED. 
SCOTT: A SPRING IN HIS STEP.
DAVID: HE HAS A SPRING IN HIS 
STEP BECAUSE HE HAS HIS BEST  
FRIEND BACK.
NO ONE MORE TOUGHER THAN HIS  
FAVORITE BUDDY HYPING HIM UP. 
HE'S SUPERSTUFF, IF YOU BEAT ME 
UP MY BUDDY IS RIGHT HERE.
OF COURSE HE'LL BE CONFIDENT. 
SCOTT: HIS BUDDY IS IN DECENT 
SHAPE FROM WHAT I CAN SEE.
HE HAS ABS LIKE YOU, MY FRIEND. 
LAST TIME OUT IN SINGLES  
COMPETITION MORRISON BEAT BIG 
E.
SO WHEN THEY COME IN THE MATCH, 
THE NEW DAY, DOES THAT PLAY IN  
THEIR MINDS?
LIKE WHEN YOU LOST THE MATCH  
AND YOU HAVE THAT GUY AGAIN THE 
NEXT TIME, DOES THE PREVIOUS  
LOSS PLAY IN YOUR HEAD? 
DAVID: ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT ME 
PERSONALLY? 
SCOTT: NOT THAT THERE ARE A LOT 
OF LOSSES IN YOUR CAREER. 
DAVID: WATCH IT.
IT DEFINITELY DOES. 
A GUY LIKE BIG E, KNOWING HIM 
IT KILLS HIM HE LOST TO 
MORRISON. 
WHEN HE COMES IN, HE'S PROBABLY 
GOING TO BE FOCUSED ON JUST 
MORRISON. 
WHICH COULD BE A BAD THING. 
HE WANTS TO MAKE SURE HE KEEPS  
HIS FOCUS WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE  
AND THAT'S ON WINNING THE 
MATCH.
CHARLY: THIS DEFINITELY WILL BE 
A FUN MATCH TO WATCH TONIGHT. 
AND THE WOMEN ALSO TAKING 
CENTER STAGE TODAY IN HISTORIC  
MATCH, THE FIRST WOMEN'S TITLE  
DEFENSE IN SAUDI ARABIA, AND  
ONE WOMAN WHO KNOWS ALL ABOUT 
MAKING HISTORY IS NATALIA AND 
FACED LACEE WITH THE FIRST  
WOMEN'S MATCH IN SAUDI ARABIA 
AND TWEETED OUT THERE, I'M  
EXCITED FOR NAOMI AND BAYLEY AS 
THEY PREPARE FOR A MATCH IN 
RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA. 
THE WOMEN'S FIRST CHAMPIONSHIP  
MATCH IN SAUDI ARABIA AND 
ANOTHER EPIC MOMENT FOR WOMEN 
AROUND THE WORLD. 
I'M INCREDIBLY PROUD. 
LET'S GO TO BYRON SAXTON JOINED 
BY THE CHALLENGER NAOMI.
BYRON: WELCOME MY GUEST AT THIS 
TIME NAOMI. 
HOW ARE YOU DOING?
NAOMI: GREAT. 
BYRON: LAST WEEK ON "SMACKDOWN" 
YOU DEFEATED CARMELO FOR A  
CHANCE TO FACE BAYLEY IN THE  
FIRST EVER WOMEN'S TITLE MATCH  
IN SAUDI ARABIA.
WHAT DOES MAKING HISTORY ON 
THIS NIGHT MEAN TO YOU? 
NAOMI: IT'S A HONOR TO BE PART  
OF THIS SUPERMATCH. 
BUT WHAT WILL BE A MORE HONOR 
IS WHEN I SNATCH THE MATCH OFF  
BAYLEY AND BECOME THREE TIME  
WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP BECAUSE  
ALL THAT GLOW CAN DEFEAT ALL  
THAT GLARE ANY PLACE ANY TIME 
ANY WHERE.
CHARLY: NAOMI IS FEELING THE  
GLOW, GOING THROUGH WHAT I  
WOULD CALL MAYBE A GLOWUP RIGHT 
NOW.
SHE'S BEEN SHINING SINCE HER  
RETURN. 
SCOTT: LOOK AT ALL THE RHYMES.
DAVID: I KNOW YOU APPRECIATE  
THE RHYMES. 
SCOTT: WHEN YOU SAY GLOWUP, YOU 
HAD ONE OF YOUR OWN WITH THE  
GARZA KISS ON RAW.
CHARLY: COMING BACK TO THAT ARE 
WE? 
SCOTT: WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE  
HISTORICAL RAMIFICATIONS, THE 
FIRST WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP IN 
SAUDI ARABIA, THE FIRST 
"SMACKDOWN" MATCH IN SAUDI  
ARABIA. 
I KNOW NATTY AND LACEE DID IT 
IN THE FALL AND WAS THE FIRST 
WOMEN'S MATCH.
THIS IS THE FIRST ONE FOR A 
TITLE SO THERE'S GOT TO AN LOT  
MORE PRESSURE COMING INTO THIS  
ONE.
DAVID: THERE HAS TO BE. 
THIS IS A MOMENTOUS OCCASION  
AND A HUGE DEAL.
YOU KNOW, I'M PROUD NAOMI IS  
THIS AND I THINK IT MIGHT BE  
HER NIGHT TO STEP UP. 
EVERYBODY KIND OF HAS GIVEN 
THIS TO BAYLEY, SHE'S ARGUABLY  
THE MOST DOMINANT "SMACKDOWN" 
WOMEN CHAMPION BUT NAOMI IS 
ALSO A TWO TIME "SMACKDOWN" 
WOMEN CHAMPION AND ALSO ONE OF  
THE MOST ATHLETICALLY GIFTED  
PEOPLE ON THE ROSTER, MALE OR 
FEMALE. 
SHE CAN DO INCREDIBLE STUFF.
CHARLY: I WON'T ARGUE WITH THE  
FACT THAT NAOMI IS EXTREMELY  
ATHLETIC. 
BAYLEY YOU THINK NOW IS THE 
TIME SHE'S GOING TO LET DOWN  
ANY OF HER GUARD? 
WRESTLEMANIA IS LESS THAN TWO 
MONTHS AWAY.
THERE'S NO WAY SHE DROPS THE  
TITLE.
DAVID: I'M NOT SAYING SHE'S 
LETTING DOWN HER GUARD. 
I'M SAYING NAOMI HAS THE GLOW.
THAT'S WHAT IT IS.
SURE ENOUGH, SHE'S GOING TO 
MAKE HER KISS HER CONVERSE. 
SCOTT: SOMEHOW DO YOU SPEAK 
SHONUF? 
DAVID: SHE HAS THE GLOW LIKE  
LEROY.
CHARLY: WHAT DOES SHE HAVE TO 
DO TO DEFEAT BAYLEY?
DAVID: SHE HAS TO COME IN AND 
STICK TO HER GAME PLAN AND PLAY 
OFF BAYLEY'S OVERCONFIDENCE AND 
SURPRISE HER. 
CHARLY: BAYLEY IS MORE THAN 
CONFIDENT, MORE THAN EVER.
SCOTT: MARK HENRY SAID ON WWE 
BACKSTAGE, SHE'S DOING WHAT SHE 
CAN TO BRING PROMINENCE BACK TO 
THE WOMEN'S DIVISION. 
I AGREE WITH MARK ON DOING WHAT 
SHE CAN BUT DIDN'T AGREE WITH 
HIM ON THE PROMINENCE AND DON'T 
KNOW WHEN IT LEFT THE WOMEN'S 
DIVISION BUT SHE HAS THE  
MOMENTUM NOW. 
COULD THE PRESSURE AND  
HISTORICAL RAMIFICATIONS, DAVE, 
CAUSE SOMEONE TO GO OFF THEIR 
GAME PLAN ONCE THEY GET INTO  
THAT RING?
DAVID: MOST DEFINITELY. 
I THINK BAYLEY WILL HAVE A  
MISSTEP TONIGHT AND THINK SHE 
LOSES, I REALLY DO. 
IT'S A BIG NIGHT AND NIECE  
OVERCONFIDENT.
CHARLY: I LIKE THAT HOT TAKE. 
DAVID: IT'S HOT, GLOWING HOT. 
SCOTT: EVERYBODY IS GLOWING.
I DON'T HAVE ANY GLOW.
I WANT TO GLOW. 
CHARLY: YOU NEED A TANNED SPOT  
IS ALL YOU NEED.
ANOTHER TITLE ON THE LINE IS  
THE RAW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP.
BACK TO RIYADH WE GO WHERE THE  
STREET PROFITS ARE PREPARING TO 
TAKE ON CHAMPS SETH ROLLINS AND 
BUDDY MURPHY. 
>> HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO.

NIGHT PARIAH AND MURPH THE  
SMURF ARE BURNING IT DOWN 
TONIGHT.
>> WE HAVE CHAMPIONSHIP 
FEELINGS. 
>> TELL THEM WHY. 
>> THE PROFITS ARE UP AND WE  
WANT SMOKE. 
SCOTT: WE WANT THE SMOKE. 
CHARLY: TALK ABOUT IN SYNC. 
YOU COULDN'T BE ANY MORE IN 
SYNC THAN THE STREET PROFITS  
WHO HAVE BEEN A TAG TEAM FOR  
YEARS NOW AND GOING AGAINST THE 
CHAMPIONS BUDDY MURPHY AND SETH 
ROLLINS.
THEY'RE IN SYNC.
DOES IT MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE 
GOING UP SUCH A DOMINANT TAG  
TEAM? 
DAVID: THEY'RE IN SYNC, NOT THE 
BOY BAND *NSYNC *NSYNC. 
SCOTT: BYE, BYE, BYE ♪ 
DAVID: THEY'VE BEEN PARTNERS A  
LONG TIME AND HAVE CHEMISTRY  
AND KNOWS HOW IT WORKS AND  
GIVES THEM A SLIGHT ADVANTAGE 
IN THAT DEPARTMENT WHEN YOU 
LOOK AT ROLLINS AND MURPHY BUT  
AT THE SAME TIME YOU CAN'T  
DISCOUNT WHO SETH ROLLINS IS  
AND WHAT HE'S ACCOMPLISHED. 
LIKE HIM OR NOT.
I MEAN, HE'S A VERY 
ACCOMPLISHED GUY AND ONE OF THE 
FOUNDING MEMBERS OF THE SHIELD, 
THE ARCHITECT.
SO I THINK HE WILL FIGURE OUT A 
WAY TO WIN. 
I THINK THAT NEGATES IT AND 
PUTS THEM ON A EVEN PLAYING 
FIELD.
SCOTT: DAVE, LET ME GO  
ANTITHESIS OF THAT, NICE WORD I 
USED. 
YOU AND JOHN CENA WERE THROWN 
TOGETHER AND WON THAT TITLE,  
THE TAG TEAM TITLE. 
DAVID: WE DID.
SCOTT: FOR 24 HOURS.
DAVID: DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT,  
WE WON IT.
SCOTT: ROLLINS AND MURPHY, YOU  
DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO HAVE  
THAT TWO OR THREE YEARS 
COHESION TOGETHER.
DAVID: EXACTLY. 
AS LONG AS YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT 
YOU'RE DOING, YOU HAVE THE SAME 
GOAL. 
FOR EXAMPLE, THAT MATCH WITH  
JOHN CENA WHERE HE WAS MY 
PARTNER, I HAD TO DO  
EVERYTHING. 
AND HE SHARED IN THE GLORY WITH 
ME AND I HAD TO SHARE THE TITLE 
WITH HIM. 
SHAME THING.
IF ROLLINS HAS TO STEP UP AND 
DO WHAT HE HAS TO DO TO CARRY 
THE TEAM HE WILL. 
NOT TO TAKE ANYTHING AWAY FROM  
MURPHY ON RAW, DAWKINS WAS  
GETTING THE BETTER OF HIM AND 
ROLLINS HAD TO COME IN THERE  
AND SAVE THINGS.
SO I THINK MURPHY MIGHT BE THE  
WEAK LINK AND COULD BE A  
STRATEGY FOR THE STREET PROFITS 
TO KEY IN ON MURPHY.
CHARLY: THAT COULD BE THE 
ANSWER TO SUCCESS.
SCOTT: THEY DID HAVE THAT SPLIT 
ONE LOSS RECORD ON RAW. 
AND LISTEN, THE THING ABOUT 
MURPHY IS SETH ROLLINS KIND OF  
TOOK HIM IN WHEN MURPHY WAS AT  
HIS LOWEST POINT SITTING ON THE 
SIDE OF THE RING. 
HE'D LOST THAT MATCH AGAIN TO 
ALEISTER BLACK. 
AND SETH ROLLINS SAID -- THAT'S 
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET THE I 
DID SIPELES AND FIND THEM AT  
THEIR LOWEST POINT AND MURPHY 
WAS DOWN AND OUT AND DIDN'T 
WANT TO GO BACK AND WAS 
PARALYZED WITH A DEPRESSED  
STATE AND ROLLINS TOOK HIM IN 
AND GAVE HIM A NEW LIFE AND 
LOOKS LIKE MURPHY, HE'LL WALK 
THROUGH FIRE FOR SETH ROLLINS.
DAVID: HE HAS HIM DRINKING THE  
SETH ROLLINS KOOL-AID AND NEEDS 
TO GIVE THE STREET PROFITS THE  
RED CUPS. 
SCOTT: WHAT'S IN THE CUP, DAVE? 
DAVID: I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE IT'S 
KOOL-AID. 
WHO KNOWS.
BUT MURPHY DEFINITELY WILL  
FOLLOW ANYTHING ROLLINS PUTS IN 
FRONT OF HIM AND DO WHATEVER HE 
ASKS HIM TO DO. 
I THINK IN THAT RESPECT ROLLINS 
WILL TRUST MURPHY A LOT AND 
THAT'S SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT 
YOU NEED IN THE TAG TEAM  
PARTNER.
SCOTT: LISTEN, I LOVE THE 
STREET PROFITS, THEY'RE A VERY  
TALENTED TEAM AND HAVE BEEN 
TOGETHER FOR A WHILE. 
FOR ME IF I'VE GOT TO PICK A  
WINNER I SEE ROLLINS AND MURPHY 
COMING OUT ON TOP OF THIS ONE.
THAT'S MY OWN OPINION.
DAVID: YOU KNOW WHAT -- 
SCOTT: COME ON, AGREE WITH ME.
CHARLY: WE NEED ANOTHER HOT 
TAKE, OTUNGA. 
DAVID: A HOT TAKE OR RIGHT  
TAKE? 
THE STREET PROFITS I SEE THEM 
AS FUTURE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS  
BUT DON'T KNOW IT'S TONIGHT.
CHARLY: ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE GOING WITH THE CURRENT  
CHAMPIONS.
GOLDBERG IS BACK AND READY FOR  
THE REMATCH HE NEVER GOT AFTER  
LOSING THE UNIVERSAL  
CHAMPIONSHIP TO BROCK LESNAR AT 
WRESTLEMANIA. 
TONIGHT HE GETS THE OPPORTUNITY 
AT GOLD BUT NOT ONLY UP AGAINST 
BRAY WYATT BUT HE'S UP AGAINST  
MUCH MORE AS HE'S UP AGAINST  
THE FIEND.
>> LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE 
WELCOME WWE HALL OF FAMER

[CHANTING "GOLDBERG"] 
>> DAMN, IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK!
>> I WATCHED THE WORLD RUMBLE 
PAY-PER-VIEW AND GAVE ME AN 
ITCH AGAIN AND GOT ME THINKING  
WHAT ABOUT THE UNIVERSAL  
CHAMPIONSHP. 
>> SO THE FIEND, WHOEVER AND  
WHATEVER YOU ARE, KNOW THIS,  
I'M READY.
>> WE INTERRUPT THIS BROADCAST  
FOR AN INTERPRET MESS FRIDGE  
FUN HOUSE NEWS. 
BREAKING NEWS OUT OF  
"SMACKDOWN" AS WILLIAM GOLDBERG 
IS REPORTEDLY THINKING ABOUT  
CHALLENGING THE FIEND FOR THE 
UNIVERSAL CHAMPIONSHIP. 
BUT THAT'S BAD NEWS FOR BILL  
BECAUSE WORD ON THE STREET IS 
THAT HE ACCEPTS.
>> BRAY WYATT, I KNOW WHO YOU 
ARE AND WHAT YOU'RE ALL ABOUT,  
I AIN'T PLAYING YOUR STUPID 
GAMES.
I AIN'T HERE TO TALK, I'M HERE  
TO DO ONE THING AND THAT'S TAKE 
YOUR UNIVERSAL CHAMPIONSHIP.
[LAUGHTER]
>> ARE YOU NOT TAKING ANYTHING  
FROM ANYONE!
>> ACTUALLY, YOU DON'T KNOW ME  
AT ALL, BILL. 
SOMEONE HAS JUST BEEN DIING TO  
MEET YOU. 
>> GOLDBERG!
>> GOLDBERG HAS STRUCK FIRST. 
THAT'S NEVER HAPPENED TO THE  
FIEND.
>> THE FIEND PREY WYATT, YOU'RE 
NEXT.
CHARLY: GOLDBERG IS A MULTITIME 
CHAMPION TAKING ON THE BEST.
HE'S DEFEATED THE BEST. 
I HAVE TO ASK YOU GUYS, DOES HE 
KNOW WT HE'S GETTING HIMSELF  
IN TO, STEPPING INTO THE RING 
WITH "THE FIEND" BRAY WYATT.
SCOTT: WE KNOW ABOUT GOLDBERG 
BUT NOT THE FIEND WHEN IT COMES 
DOWN TO IT. 
WITH THE 173 START. 
HE KNOCKED OUT BROCK LESNAR 
WHEN HE CAME BACK AND DOLPH 
ZIEGLER.
WE KNOW WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT  
GOLDBERG. 
WHAT WE DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE  
FIEND IS WHAT HE'S CAPABLE OF 
RIGHT NOW.
WE'VE SEEN SOME OF THE THINGS 
HE CAN DO.
I DON'T THINK WE'VE SEEN WHAT 
HE'S CAPABLE OF TO THE MAX, 
DAVID?
DAVID: EVERY TIME WE SEE THE  
FIEND THERE'S SOMETHING NEW 
pTH.
LIKE YOU SAID, GOLDBERG IS ONE  
OF THE MOST DOMINANT SUPERSTARS 
IN HISTORY, PERIOD. 
THE CLOSEST THING WE HAD TO A 
MIKE TYSON IN HIS PRIME 
DISPATCHING EVERYBODY EARLY ON. 
JUST IN A MATTER OF A MINUTE OR 
SO. 
BUT THE FIEND IS SOMETHING  
TOTALLY DIFFERENT BECAUSE WHAT  
IMPRESSES ME IS I'VE SEEN HIM 
TAKE SOME INCREDIBLE PUNISHMENT 
AND GET BACK UP.
IT'S LIKE HIS BRAIN HAS SOME  
KIND OF ABILITY TO IGNORE THE 
NEUROTRANSMITTERS SENDING PAIN  
SIGNALS.
GO AHEAD. 
SCOTT: YOU TALK ABOUT THE PAIN, 
YOU SAW IT IN THE PIECE THERE,  
HE GOT THE SPEAR ON FRIDAY  
NIGHT, YOU THOUGHT HE WAS DOWN  
BUT A MINUTE LATER THE LIGHTS 
WENT OUT AND HE WAS GONE. 
DAVID: IT ENDS MOST GUYS. 
AND THE FIEND WAS RIGHT THERE.
CHARLY: HE'S NOT HUMAN. 
DAVID: HE'S BACK UP AND THE 
LIGHTS ARE ON AND HE'S GONE.
THE MIND GAME.
SOMETHING INTERESTING, THE  
FIEND OPERATES OFF FEAR AND 
INTIMIDATION. 
TAKEN AS WE JUST SAW GOLDBERG 
WASN'T INTIMIDATED. 
I DON'T THINK THAT MAN IS 
INTIMIDATED BY ANYTHING.
IT COULD BE A GOOD THING BUT  
STATEMENT IT COULD BE A BAD 
THING BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO BE  
CAREFUL.
SOMETIMES FEAR CAN HELP YOU.
SCOTT: YOU SAW WHAT THE FIEND 
DID WITH SETH ROLLINS AND 
TURNED MIZ'S WORLD UPSIGHT DOWN 
AND CHARLIE BRIAN.
BUT WITH GOLDBERG, I KNOW 
YOU'RE BEHIND YOU AND NOW I'M 
GOING TO SPEAR YOU. 
TAKES GUYS DOWN.
HE WAS GONE.
LET ME ASK YOU THIS AT THE END  
OF THE DAY IS THE FIEND STILL 
THE CHAMP?
DAVID: I DON'T SEE HOW YOU CAN  
BEAT THE FIEND, I'LL BE HONEST. 
BUT THEN AGAIN GOLDBERG SEEMS 
PRETTY DANG UNBEATABLE, TOO.
HE'S NOT THE TYPICAL BUY WHO  
LIKE I SAID IS INTIMIDATED BY 
THE FIEND.
THESE ARE TWO UNSTOPPABLE 
FORCES MEETING. 
MAN, I HAVE A HARD TIME GOING 
AGAINST THE FIEND.
I THINK THE FIEND IS GOING TO 
RETAIN. 
SCOTT: IT WILL BE INTERESTING 
YOU HAVE WRESTLEMANIA 
RAMIFICATIONS AND I THINK THE 
FIEND WALKS OUT WITH THE TITLE  
IN TOE, CHARLY. 
CHARLY: I HOPE GOLDBERG DOESN'T 
REGRET STEPPING IN THE RING 
WITH THE FIEND TONIGHT. 
LET'S GET SET FOR OUR VERY  
FIRST MATCH OF THE NIGHT. 
Y'ALL READY FOR THIS? 
LET'S HEAD OVER TO SAUDI ARABIA 
WHERE OUR TEAM IS STANDING BY.
>> HI AGAIN, EVERYBODY.

>> I'M WAY MORE THAN LESNAR'S 
NEXT CHALLENGER.
>> AND RICOCHET WITH PAYBACK TO 
LESNAR. 
LESNAR ELIMINATED.
>> THE ASSIST TO RICOCHET.
>> THIS IS MY ONE CHANCE. 
MY ONE SHOT TO MAKE HISTORY TO  
BECOME WWE CHAMPION, TO 
HEADLINE WRESTLEMANIA!
SO I ASK YOU ONE LAST TIME. 
WHY NOT ME? 
CHARLY: CAN YOU NEVER COUNT OUT 
RICOCHET. 
HE DOES DEFINITELY HAVE THE 
HEART OF A CHAMPION.
BUT THIS IS BROCK LESNAR WE'RE  
TALKING ABOUT.
I HOPE THAT I'M NOT SAYING WHAT 
EVERYONE IS THINKING BUT I  
DON'T THINK HE STANDS A CHANCE. 
DAVID: HE HAS THE HEART OF A  
CHAMPION BUT NOT BRAINS LIKE  
SOMEBODY THAT WENT TO HARVARD.
THE LAST THING YOU WANT TO DO 
IS GIVE BROCK A LOW BLOW, 
WHETHER YOU FELT IT WAS 
WARRANTED.
BUT IT LED TO HIM BEING 
ELIMINATED FROM THE ROYAL 
RUMBLE. 
RICOCHET HAS TO BE CAREFUL IN 
THIS MATCH OR HE MIGHT NOT COME 
OUT OF IT IN ONE PIECE, I'LL BE 
HONEST. 
SCOTT: YOU KNOW, IN THEIR FIRST 
GET TOGETHER BROCK WENT WITH  
THE LOW BLOW AND THEN RICOCHET  
HIT BROCK WITH THE LOW BLOW AT  
THE ROYAL RUMBLE THAT LED BY  
THE CLAYMORE KICK BY MCINTYRE 
WHICH WENT TO WINNING THE ROYAL 
RUMBLE. 
40 YEARS AGO THIS PAST WEEKEND, 
PAUL HEYMAN ALLUDED TO IT 
EARLIER IN THE SHOW.
THE U.S.A. HOCKEY TEAM PULLED 
OFF A MIRACLE AGAINST THE 
RUSSIANS, 40 YEARS AGO. 
IS THERE A MIRACLE HAPPENING IN 
RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA TODAY? 
DAVID: I DON'T BELIEVE SO.
I MEAN, THIS IS BROCK LESNAR  
"THE BEAST."
WE'VE SEEN WHAT THIS MAN CAN  
DO. 
LET'S JUST SAY, FOR EXAMPLE,  
THIS COULD BE A MIRACLE.
LISTEN TO THIS. 
LET'S JUST SAY BROCK TAKES  
RICOCHET TO SUPLEX CITY.
HE COULD POTENTIALLY SUPLEX HIM 
ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE NUNS. 
-- BACK TO THE UNITED STATES. 
THAT WOULD BE A MIRACLE.
THAT'S HOW FAR HE'LL TOSS HIM 
OUT OF THIS RING AND OUT OF IT. 
CHARLY: WHETHER RICOCHET COMES  
OUT VICTORIOUS, YOU'RE NOT  
FEELING SO STRONGLY ABOUT IT. 
WHAT DOES RICOCHET HAVE TO DO 
TO EVEN HANG IN THERE WITH  
BROCK DURING THIS MATCH?
DAVID: HE HAS TO USE HIS SPEED  
AND AGILITY.
STAY AWAY.
DON'T GET CAUGHT. 
IF BROCK GETS HIS HANDS ON HIM  
WE'LL FIND OUT WHY HE CALLS HIM 
RICOCHET BECAUSE HE'LL RICOCHET 
ALL OVER THAT RING AND  
EVERYWHERE. 
SCOTT: WE DON'T CALL RICOCHET,  
HE'S GOT THAT SUPERHUMAN  
ABILITY, RIGHT? 
HE'S ALMOST LIKE A CARTOON  
CHARACTER SUPERHERO.
HAS BROCK LESNAR EVER FACED A 
GUY WITH THIS KIND OF ABILITY 
IN THE RING?
DAVID: I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS  
KIND OF ABILITY.
THAT'S ONE THING. 
BROCK HAS LOOKED GREAT AGAINST  
PEOPLE LIKE A.J. STYLES OR SETH 
ROLLINS.
BUT RICOCHET IS A LITTLE BIT  
DIFFERENT AND IS A UNIQUE 
ATHLETE IN HIS ATHLETICISM. 
THERE COULD BE TIMES BROCK  
EXPECTS TO HIT HIM WITH 
SOMETHING AND RICOCHET LANDS ON 
HIS FEET AND COULD BE DIFFERENT 
COUNTERS HE'S NOT USED TO.
CHARLY: WILL ENDURANCE PLAY A 
FACTOR? 
CHARLY: I THINK IT WILL HAVE TO 
FOR RICOCHET BECAUSE HE HAS TO  
MOVE HIS SPEED AND MOVE THE 
WHOLE TIME. 
HE NEEDS TO KEEP IT UP. 
SCOTT: LISTEN, IF I WAS A 
GAMBLING MAN AND I'M NOT I  
WOULD HAVE TO GO ALL CHALK AND  
GO WITH LESNAR. 
CHARLY: I'M GOING WITH BROCK  
LESNAR I THINK. 
DAVID: I WOULDN'T BET AGAINST 
HIM.
CHARLY: SEE YOU FOR SHOWDOWN  
GOING LIVE FROM RIYADH, SAUDI 
ARABIA. 
EVERYBODY THANKS FOR TUNING IN  
AND ENJOY THE SHOW
