I don't want to hear anybody say anything about Brock Lesnar not defending titles, not spending any time, not wrestling when he needs to wrestle. This has been an incredible performance by Brock Lesnar, a career-defining performance here tonight.
And you're talking about the greatest combat sports athlete in history. NCAA champion, UFC Heavyweight Champion, multiple-time WWE Champion and Universal Champion...
[on the entrance of...] #16, Drew McIntyre.
I would add "soon-to-be Royal Rumble winner," but you got McIntyre staring a hole through the WWE Champion right now.
You know, McIntyre last year entered at the same spot, #16. He lasted over 20 minutes and came close to winning the event. McIntyre now locked eyes with Brock Lesnar.
[after entering the ring] Give it to me, Brock! What have you got for me?!
[Lesnar removes his gloves and takes a few steps back. From behind, Richochet low-blows Lesnar.]
Oh, Ricochet with a low-blow to Lesnar! [McIntyre Claymore Kicks Lesnar out of the ring, eliminating him] Claymore Kick! Lesnar eliminated!
WHOA!!!
McIntyre eliminates Lesnar! Brock Lesnar lasted 26:23, but he was eliminated by a low-blow by Ricochet, payback for Monday night, and then McIntyre with a Claymore. Heyman's in disbelief.
[off the replay] A little teamwork, chalk up the assist to Ricochet. But boom, Claymore knocks the WWE Champion to the floor. This place is still in disbelief.
But an incredible performance, a record-tying performance by Lesnar. He eliminated 13 men tonight, tying the Royal Rumble record. Entered at #1, lasted 26:23.
