1
00:00:02,035 --> 00:00:03,469
From the days of Mae Young to
Trish Stratus
2
00:00:03,470 --> 00:00:05,271
to Charlotte Flair,
3
00:00:05,272 --> 00:00:07,241
women's wrestling has
always been a constant.
4
00:00:07,641 --> 00:00:10,544
The moonsault, the hook, the
three.
5
00:00:10,644 --> 00:00:11,844
My God, Lita did it.
6
00:00:11,845 --> 00:00:13,946
But in the last decade, the
women in Sports Entertainment
7
00:00:13,947 --> 00:00:17,351
have evolved the division into
immeasurable heights.
8
00:00:18,051 --> 00:00:21,220
Women's Money in the Bank
ladder match.
9
00:00:21,221 --> 00:00:24,223
Women's War Games match.
10
00:00:24,224 --> 00:00:27,027
All women's Royal Rumble
match.
11
00:00:29,029 --> 00:00:30,830
Today we look back at the
defining moments
12
00:00:30,831 --> 00:00:32,165
of the Women's Evolution.
13
00:00:32,733 --> 00:00:37,069
For the first time ever, women
are in the main event at
14
00:00:37,070 --> 00:00:37,905
WrestleMania.
15
00:00:38,005 --> 00:00:40,873
I love this and I love this.
16
00:00:40,874 --> 00:00:45,612
This is WWE's Greatest
Moments.
17
00:00:47,881 --> 00:00:49,348
Acknowledge me.
18
00:00:49,349 --> 00:00:50,483
My God.
19
00:00:50,484 --> 00:00:52,219
Stone Cold with a beer
bath.
20
00:00:52,319 --> 00:00:55,354
This is surreal.
21
00:00:55,355 --> 00:00:56,456
Look at this.
22
00:00:56,556 --> 00:00:57,591
He slammed him.
23
00:01:03,430 --> 00:01:06,165
Welcome, everyone to WWE's
Greatest Moments.
24
00:01:06,166 --> 00:01:08,502
I'm Michael Cole, and on this
edition, we're taking you back
25
00:01:08,602 --> 00:01:12,071
to some of the pivotal moments
of the Women's Evolution.
26
00:01:12,072 --> 00:01:15,808
When talking about pioneers in
the women's division, the top of
27
00:01:15,809 --> 00:01:19,312
that list includes WWE Hall of
Famer Trish Stratus.
28
00:01:19,313 --> 00:01:21,782
Trish has entertained audiences
worldwide for a quarter of a
29
00:01:21,882 --> 00:01:24,917
century now, and certainly
carved a path for future
30
00:01:24,918 --> 00:01:27,120
generations to prosper.
31
00:01:27,754 --> 00:01:31,858
Without me, there would be no
woman's revolution and I'm here
32
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,761
to make sure none of you forget
it.
33
00:01:36,663 --> 00:01:39,865
Stomping down that paved path
was none other than "The Man"
34
00:01:39,866 --> 00:01:41,702
Becky Lynch.
35
00:01:41,802 --> 00:01:43,569
Over the years, Becky has carved
out an impressive
36
00:01:43,570 --> 00:01:45,471
legacy of her own.
37
00:01:45,472 --> 00:01:49,743
At one stage, Trish, you were
number one in this business.
38
00:01:49,843 --> 00:01:52,912
But I have been able to have a
career that
39
00:01:52,913 --> 00:01:54,715
you could only dream of.
40
00:01:55,549 --> 00:01:58,418
So what happens when past
meets present in the dreaded
41
00:01:58,518 --> 00:02:00,721
steel cage match?
42
00:02:02,789 --> 00:02:04,658
In the history of the
Women's Evolution,
43
00:02:04,758 --> 00:02:07,060
Trish walked so
Becky could run.
44
00:02:07,628 --> 00:02:09,162
We wanted to go in there,
change the game,
45
00:02:09,997 --> 00:02:14,066
and dare I say, we
stole that show.
46
00:02:14,067 --> 00:02:16,235
This cage will tear your
flesh.
47
00:02:16,236 --> 00:02:17,970
Knowing we've told the story
for so long,
48
00:02:17,971 --> 00:02:19,405
this has to pay off big.
49
00:02:19,406 --> 00:02:21,441
Like we knew that it needed to
end up in a cage.
50
00:02:22,142 --> 00:02:24,277
And Lynch is just going wild.
51
00:02:25,579 --> 00:02:29,383
Trish was almost like taking
up arms for her generation,
52
00:02:29,483 --> 00:02:31,584
showing that they could be just
as good
53
00:02:31,585 --> 00:02:33,353
and on that night they were.
54
00:02:34,087 --> 00:02:36,923
Young Trish is one of the
greatest of all time-
55
00:02:37,391 --> 00:02:39,326
Her generation ain't Becky.
56
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,230
I wanted the crowd to care as
much as they possibly could.
57
00:02:43,664 --> 00:02:44,698
And they did.
58
00:02:47,701 --> 00:02:48,834
Not from up there-
59
00:02:48,835 --> 00:02:50,269
Superplex.
60
00:02:55,308 --> 00:02:57,610
That was one of those
groundbreaking matches because
61
00:02:57,611 --> 00:03:00,714
it really cemented what we could
do given time.
62
00:03:02,416 --> 00:03:04,317
Manhandle Slam.
63
00:03:06,186 --> 00:03:07,788
What a match.
64
00:03:08,488 --> 00:03:11,123
After that match, it was such
a great milestone in my career
65
00:03:11,124 --> 00:03:13,460
and I think I could have been
pretty satisfied to have left
66
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,561
that as my last ever match,
especially with someone like
67
00:03:15,562 --> 00:03:17,196
Becky Lynch.
68
00:03:17,197 --> 00:03:19,599
That match is in the running
for match of the year.
69
00:03:24,438 --> 00:03:27,840
In 2018, WWE held its first
show in the country of Saudi
70
00:03:27,841 --> 00:03:31,444
Arabia with the traditional
values of the country did not
71
00:03:31,445 --> 00:03:35,247
allow the women to compete, but
WWE has always been at the
72
00:03:35,248 --> 00:03:38,584
forefront of making positive and
influential changes in the
73
00:03:38,585 --> 00:03:42,322
world, and just 18 months later,
it did just that.
74
00:03:42,856 --> 00:03:46,025
One day before Crown Jewel 2019,
it was announced that for the
75
00:03:46,026 --> 00:03:50,863
first time ever, the country of
Saudi Arabia would see women
76
00:03:50,864 --> 00:03:52,265
competing in a match.
77
00:03:53,233 --> 00:03:56,103
Sitting at ringside, it was a
moment I will never forget.
78
00:03:56,803 --> 00:03:59,872
Lacey Evans took on Natalya in
one of the most important
79
00:03:59,873 --> 00:04:02,476
matches in women's history.
80
00:04:04,711 --> 00:04:08,080
Since I heard the news, I
haven't even had a sip of water.
81
00:04:08,081 --> 00:04:09,916
Just been like, so excited.
82
00:04:11,618 --> 00:04:12,384
Have fun ladies.
83
00:04:12,385 --> 00:04:13,620
Thank you so much.
84
00:04:14,221 --> 00:04:16,356
I can't even imagine
85
00:04:18,158 --> 00:04:20,192
the amount of butterflies that
Lacey
86
00:04:20,193 --> 00:04:24,464
and Natalya had to deal with
before that match.
87
00:04:25,232 --> 00:04:26,833
We were breaking barriers.
88
00:04:28,602 --> 00:04:31,036
Ladies and gentlemen, you
cannot overstate the importance
89
00:04:31,037 --> 00:04:32,671
of this matchup here tonight.
90
00:04:32,672 --> 00:04:36,475
It is the first time there has
ever been a women's match
91
00:04:36,476 --> 00:04:38,245
in Saudi Arabia.
92
00:04:39,146 --> 00:04:41,547
I was just very excited to see
that there was lots of little
93
00:04:41,548 --> 00:04:45,184
girls and women who were looking
at those two in the ring,
94
00:04:45,185 --> 00:04:47,854
changing the way that people
view women's wrestling.
95
00:04:48,622 --> 00:04:49,656
Wow.
96
00:04:49,756 --> 00:04:51,023
Great impact.
97
00:04:51,024 --> 00:04:51,858
Off the top rope-
98
00:04:51,958 --> 00:04:53,393
Moonsault connecting.
99
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,963
To see women competing in a
WWE ring that opened up a whole
100
00:04:57,964 --> 00:05:02,568
new spectrum of dreams for a lot
of little girls who may have
101
00:05:02,569 --> 00:05:04,905
never in a million years thought
it was possible.
102
00:05:05,906 --> 00:05:08,007
Natalya with Lacey in the
Sharpshooter.
103
00:05:08,008 --> 00:05:08,908
Is she going to tap?
104
00:05:08,909 --> 00:05:09,508
She does.
105
00:05:09,509 --> 00:05:11,077
Natalya makes history.
106
00:05:11,778 --> 00:05:13,612
Felt like it was everything
I'd ever worked for,
107
00:05:13,613 --> 00:05:14,880
like, just coming full circle.
108
00:05:14,881 --> 00:05:17,917
To be able to say that I'm part
of the first ever women's match
109
00:05:17,918 --> 00:05:20,386
in Saudi Arabia, it was very
powerful.
110
00:05:20,387 --> 00:05:21,755
It was a very surreal evening.
111
00:05:22,656 --> 00:05:27,828
The Women's Evolution takes
another step tonight.
112
00:05:31,031 --> 00:05:34,067
In 1987, one of professional
wrestling's most innovative
113
00:05:34,167 --> 00:05:36,569
concepts was born-
War Games.
114
00:05:36,570 --> 00:05:39,405
Two rings covered by a
steel cage housed some of the
115
00:05:39,406 --> 00:05:42,007
most brutal battles in history
as two teams
116
00:05:42,008 --> 00:05:43,476
fought for survival.
117
00:05:44,578 --> 00:05:48,648
In 2019, it was the women's turn
to go to war.
118
00:05:51,751 --> 00:05:54,086
Like Chuck D said,
119
00:05:54,087 --> 00:05:57,423
"Wwelcome to
the Terrordome."
120
00:05:57,424 --> 00:06:00,025
NXT Takeover War Games.
121
00:06:00,026 --> 00:06:01,660
It was like a game changer.
122
00:06:01,661 --> 00:06:03,897
It brought more eyes to NXT.
123
00:06:03,997 --> 00:06:06,565
Io Shirai, no, no.
124
00:06:06,566 --> 00:06:10,035
No, Mamma mia.
125
00:06:10,036 --> 00:06:12,071
Come on.
126
00:06:12,072 --> 00:06:14,240
Oh, wow.
127
00:06:14,241 --> 00:06:15,542
Oh, my.
128
00:06:16,343 --> 00:06:19,445
I love intense matches where
you just legit go out there
129
00:06:19,446 --> 00:06:22,082
strong style it through and just
beat each other up.
130
00:06:24,384 --> 00:06:25,985
Oh my God.
131
00:06:25,986 --> 00:06:27,553
Ripley looking for the
Riptide.
132
00:06:27,554 --> 00:06:28,255
Oh.
133
00:06:28,355 --> 00:06:29,788
Riptide onto the chairs.
134
00:06:29,789 --> 00:06:32,525
Ripley with the cover.
135
00:06:33,159 --> 00:06:34,361
Ripley wins.
136
00:06:36,396 --> 00:06:38,298
The match was surprising.
137
00:06:38,398 --> 00:06:41,200
It was exciting and lethal.
138
00:06:41,201 --> 00:06:43,103
It was like history-making.
139
00:06:44,237 --> 00:06:47,674
Hats off to every single one
of these women.
140
00:06:52,112 --> 00:06:54,680
2002, WWE introduced a new
concept-
141
00:06:54,681 --> 00:06:58,151
The demonic structure known as
the Elimination Chamber.
142
00:06:59,452 --> 00:07:03,422
With over ten tons of steel, the
Chamber was an unforgiving
143
00:07:03,423 --> 00:07:05,125
as it was ominous.
144
00:07:05,792 --> 00:07:07,393
This match shortened careers and
provided
145
00:07:07,394 --> 00:07:11,164
too many injuries to
count- for the men.
146
00:07:11,531 --> 00:07:16,468
However, in 2018, 16 years after
his menacing debut,
147
00:07:16,469 --> 00:07:21,173
the women of WWE were finally
getting their opportunity
148
00:07:21,174 --> 00:07:24,678
to feel the wrath inside this
dreaded structure.
149
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:28,947
So it'll be Bayley
and Sonya Deville
150
00:07:28,948 --> 00:07:29,983
starting things off.
151
00:07:30,083 --> 00:07:33,185
Every five minutes a pod
will open in and another
152
00:07:33,186 --> 00:07:34,353
superstar will enter this match.
153
00:07:34,354 --> 00:07:39,392
This was a very important
moment in the Women's Evolution.
154
00:07:39,893 --> 00:07:41,226
Bayley top rope.
155
00:07:41,227 --> 00:07:42,228
Elbow to Sonya.
156
00:07:43,697 --> 00:07:45,264
First ever women's Elimination
Chamber.
157
00:07:45,265 --> 00:07:47,399
Six women locked inside this
cage.
158
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,234
This is home territory for me.
159
00:07:49,235 --> 00:07:51,403
Oh, Deville.
160
00:07:51,404 --> 00:07:53,272
There's a lot of
competitiveness and we all want
161
00:07:53,273 --> 00:07:55,308
to be the best and we all want
to be at the top.
162
00:07:56,076 --> 00:08:00,679
When I saw these women coming
to compete and leaving their
163
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:05,485
heart and soul out in the middle
of that ring, it blew me away.
164
00:08:06,653 --> 00:08:07,821
Tap out.
165
00:08:07,921 --> 00:08:09,856
Mandy Rose, the first woman
eliminated.
166
00:08:09,956 --> 00:08:13,025
Mickie James takes down
Deville.
167
00:08:13,026 --> 00:08:14,126
Here's the cover.
168
00:08:14,127 --> 00:08:15,027
Hooks the leg.
169
00:08:15,028 --> 00:08:16,763
Deville eliminated.
170
00:08:17,630 --> 00:08:20,899
My first Elimination Chamber
match, it was very intimidating,
171
00:08:20,900 --> 00:08:22,601
but I knew that we were in that
position
172
00:08:22,602 --> 00:08:24,203
because we deserved to be.
173
00:08:24,204 --> 00:08:25,071
Oh my God.
174
00:08:25,171 --> 00:08:27,240
Twisted Bliss from the top of
the pod.
175
00:08:28,241 --> 00:08:30,442
Alexa Bliss though rolling
Bayley up.
176
00:08:30,443 --> 00:08:33,612
Shoulders down and we're down to
two.
177
00:08:33,613 --> 00:08:36,049
I feel like the match couldn't
have gone any better.
178
00:08:36,716 --> 00:08:38,551
Oh, face first.
179
00:08:39,119 --> 00:08:41,554
Cover by Bliss on Banks.
180
00:08:42,989 --> 00:08:45,125
Congratulations, Alexa.
181
00:08:45,859 --> 00:08:48,560
It's been a very long journey
for the Women's Evolution
182
00:08:48,561 --> 00:08:51,430
and a very proud journey.
183
00:08:51,431 --> 00:08:53,465
Every time we've been given an
opportunity to deliver,
184
00:08:53,466 --> 00:08:55,268
I think our women over deliver.
185
00:08:55,368 --> 00:08:58,304
This is about every little
girl and woman at home in the
186
00:08:58,405 --> 00:09:02,342
audience who have ever dreamed
big.
187
00:09:04,511 --> 00:09:06,413
This victory is for all of you.
188
00:09:10,350 --> 00:09:13,118
For the better part of four
decades, WWE has been crowning
189
00:09:13,119 --> 00:09:16,822
its King of the Ring with a
superstar who conquers his way
190
00:09:16,823 --> 00:09:18,858
through a grueling tournament.
191
00:09:18,958 --> 00:09:22,428
The King of the Ring.
192
00:09:22,429 --> 00:09:25,598
Finally, in 2021, it was time
to crown a queen.
193
00:09:26,466 --> 00:09:29,702
The inaugural Queen's Crown
Tournament was set as eight of
194
00:09:29,803 --> 00:09:32,204
the top female superstars
competed for the chance to wear
195
00:09:32,205 --> 00:09:35,542
the crown, with the finals
taking place at Crown Jewel.
196
00:09:35,642 --> 00:09:38,243
It came down to Zelina Vega,
Piper Niven,
197
00:09:38,244 --> 00:09:41,481
then known as Doudrop, in this
much anticipated contest.
198
00:09:45,218 --> 00:09:47,386
This is going
to be massive.
199
00:09:47,387 --> 00:09:48,421
We will crown
the winner
200
00:09:48,521 --> 00:09:53,025
of the first ever Queen's
Crown Tournament.
201
00:09:53,026 --> 00:09:54,426
Once I actually
202
00:09:54,427 --> 00:09:56,762
walked into the ring
and stood across from
203
00:09:56,763 --> 00:09:58,864
her, I remember thinking,
"Oh, I'm going to soak
204
00:09:58,865 --> 00:10:00,967
every bit of this up."
205
00:10:02,402 --> 00:10:06,238
Doudrop looks to use her power
and Zelina Vega her speed.
206
00:10:06,239 --> 00:10:07,907
Zelina not going to want to
rely on power.
207
00:10:08,007 --> 00:10:09,508
The size differential is going
to be too much
208
00:10:09,509 --> 00:10:10,543
for Zelina to overcome.
209
00:10:11,277 --> 00:10:14,147
We have a classic
David/Goliath story.
210
00:10:14,247 --> 00:10:15,914
Round and round we go.
211
00:10:15,915 --> 00:10:17,250
Great move by Vega.
212
00:10:18,017 --> 00:10:21,120
What an opportunity that is
upon us right here.
213
00:10:21,421 --> 00:10:23,189
Zelina may have her where she
wants her.
214
00:10:23,823 --> 00:10:25,591
Zelina declaring this one just
about over.
215
00:10:25,592 --> 00:10:26,959
Oh, wait a second.
216
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,828
Sidewalk slam.
217
00:10:30,063 --> 00:10:30,863
Went for a big splash.
218
00:10:30,864 --> 00:10:32,499
Vega moved out of harm's way.
219
00:10:35,235 --> 00:10:36,869
Are you kidding me?
220
00:10:36,870 --> 00:10:38,670
A code red.
221
00:10:38,671 --> 00:10:40,240
Zelina Vega is the queen.
222
00:10:40,740 --> 00:10:43,943
To see all of the men in the
crowd bowing down to me,
223
00:10:45,645 --> 00:10:47,247
my God, there was
nothing like it.
224
00:10:48,081 --> 00:10:51,316
First ever Queen's Crown
Tournament.
225
00:10:51,317 --> 00:10:54,953
It'll be talked about for ever.
226
00:10:54,954 --> 00:10:58,057
We talk about women being
inspired.
227
00:10:58,158 --> 00:11:00,559
There are little girls out there
that are watching Zelina
228
00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:03,696
and they're saying,
"Wait, maybe I can."
229
00:11:04,330 --> 00:11:06,866
Defying the odds, Queen
Zelina.
230
00:11:12,939 --> 00:11:14,072
The long and storied history
of women's wrestling has had
231
00:11:14,073 --> 00:11:16,876
a lot of chapters written that
gets us to the present.
232
00:11:17,310 --> 00:11:20,512
In 2016, the female competitors
were leaping out of an era that
233
00:11:20,513 --> 00:11:23,015
once defined them as Divas.
234
00:11:23,016 --> 00:11:25,517
I think we're seeing the
greatest era of the women's
235
00:11:25,518 --> 00:11:27,487
division in history.
236
00:11:28,021 --> 00:11:30,989
Center of this movement, were
three standout performers-
237
00:11:30,990 --> 00:11:34,060
Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks,
and Becky Lynch.
238
00:11:36,062 --> 00:11:39,064
The trio are set to face off in
a triple threat match in front
239
00:11:39,065 --> 00:11:41,567
of the largest attendance in
WrestleMania history for
240
00:11:41,568 --> 00:11:45,270
Charlotte's Divas Championship,
but an announcement was made by
241
00:11:45,271 --> 00:11:49,641
Hall of Famer, Lita, earlier in
the night that changed all that.
242
00:11:49,642 --> 00:11:54,147
The winner of the triple
threat will be the recipient of
243
00:11:54,247 --> 00:12:00,153
the first ever WWE Women's
Championship.
244
00:12:03,489 --> 00:12:05,624
WrestleMania
32 was the
245
00:12:05,625 --> 00:12:09,862
most high profile women's
match at that point in time.
246
00:12:09,963 --> 00:12:14,300
This is for the WWE Women's
Championship.
247
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,969
It was just such a powerful
statement.
248
00:12:16,970 --> 00:12:20,472
We were looking at legitimate
female athletes
249
00:12:20,473 --> 00:12:23,175
that could steal the show.
250
00:12:23,176 --> 00:12:24,209
Frog Splash.
251
00:12:24,210 --> 00:12:25,311
Moonsault by Charlotte.
252
00:12:26,112 --> 00:12:28,248
When she did that moonsault,
everyone died.
253
00:12:29,048 --> 00:12:30,882
I never saw her do it.
254
00:12:30,883 --> 00:12:31,918
Woo.
255
00:12:33,386 --> 00:12:35,622
Ric Flair's been taken out.
256
00:12:35,722 --> 00:12:39,825
I feel like I remember going
"This match is awesome."
257
00:12:39,826 --> 00:12:40,792
The crowd is loving it.
258
00:12:40,793 --> 00:12:41,861
I'm loving it.
259
00:12:41,961 --> 00:12:43,296
Everybody's having a good time.
260
00:12:43,863 --> 00:12:45,832
Becky Lynch takes them both
out.
261
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,568
Figure eight.
262
00:12:49,569 --> 00:12:50,869
Becky tapped out.
263
00:12:50,870 --> 00:12:53,472
Charlotte is now the women's
champion.
264
00:12:53,473 --> 00:12:56,475
She was ready to take the
reigns and usher
265
00:12:56,476 --> 00:12:58,610
in this new era of performance.
266
00:12:58,611 --> 00:13:02,482
The celebration of a new era
in WWE.
267
00:13:05,518 --> 00:13:08,487
Debuting in 1988, the Royal
Rumble has become the most
268
00:13:08,488 --> 00:13:10,823
exciting event on the WWE
calendar.
269
00:13:12,458 --> 00:13:14,993
30 superstars compete for the
opportunity to headline
270
00:13:14,994 --> 00:13:17,463
on the biggest stage possible-
271
00:13:17,997 --> 00:13:19,265
WrestleMania.
272
00:13:20,133 --> 00:13:22,534
As the women's roster grew and
featured some of the fierce
273
00:13:22,535 --> 00:13:25,604
competitors that had ever seen,
274
00:13:25,605 --> 00:13:27,106
Stephanie McMahon finally made
275
00:13:27,206 --> 00:13:29,609
an announcement that was long
awaited.
276
00:13:30,009 --> 00:13:34,147
We will have for the very
first time, an all-women's Royal
277
00:13:34,247 --> 00:13:35,481
Rumble Match.
278
00:13:38,384 --> 00:13:40,385
Up next is history.
279
00:13:40,386 --> 00:13:42,788
For the first time ever, 30
women will compete
280
00:13:42,789 --> 00:13:44,657
in a Royal Rumble match.
281
00:13:45,458 --> 00:13:49,361
These women have been working
for this kind of recognition,
282
00:13:49,362 --> 00:13:51,830
for this moment, for this
opportunity, I mean,
283
00:13:51,831 --> 00:13:53,865
just to give them a chance.
284
00:13:53,866 --> 00:13:55,000
I was on a whole other level.
285
00:13:55,001 --> 00:13:57,637
I was trying to keep back so
much excitement.
286
00:13:58,304 --> 00:14:01,807
You got to see the amazing
women that we have now mix it up
287
00:14:01,808 --> 00:14:03,209
with the greats of the past.
288
00:14:03,743 --> 00:14:05,010
And Michelle McCool.
289
00:14:05,011 --> 00:14:06,746
There goes Liv Morgan.
290
00:14:06,846 --> 00:14:08,481
Beth Phoenix, with Nia up on
her shoulders.
291
00:14:09,716 --> 00:14:12,385
Got the coveted spot of number
30, which was awesome.
292
00:14:13,386 --> 00:14:15,588
Perhaps the greatest of all
time.
293
00:14:16,255 --> 00:14:20,460
All 30 women in this match
were rallying behind one
294
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,162
another, and we wanted this
match to go off perfect.
295
00:14:24,163 --> 00:14:26,598
We're down to Asuka.
296
00:14:26,599 --> 00:14:27,633
Nikki Bella.
297
00:14:28,801 --> 00:14:32,003
Asuka is a history maker.
298
00:14:33,072 --> 00:14:34,307
What an incredible night.
299
00:14:34,407 --> 00:14:35,775
What an incredible match.
300
00:14:38,077 --> 00:14:40,445
First ever women's Royal
Rumble.
301
00:14:40,446 --> 00:14:43,149
First ever women's Money in the
Bank.
302
00:14:43,249 --> 00:14:45,717
First ever women's Hell in a
Cell.
303
00:14:45,718 --> 00:14:49,021
What else could we possibly do
to top all that?
304
00:14:49,122 --> 00:14:52,357
Well, the most powerful woman,
WWE Stephanie McMahon
305
00:14:52,358 --> 00:14:53,426
found a way how.
306
00:14:54,761 --> 00:15:00,031
Over 50 women then, now, and
forever will participate in an
307
00:15:00,032 --> 00:15:02,734
event called Evolution,
308
00:15:02,735 --> 00:15:07,774
the first ever all women's
pay-per-view.
309
00:15:12,979 --> 00:15:16,214
It is history in the making
from Nassau Coliseum-
310
00:15:16,215 --> 00:15:17,449
Evolution.
311
00:15:17,450 --> 00:15:19,985
I remember seeing the news
that there was going to be the
312
00:15:19,986 --> 00:15:21,353
first ever all-women's
pay-per-view, and I was like,
313
00:15:21,354 --> 00:15:22,587
"Oh my God, we've done it."
314
00:15:22,588 --> 00:15:25,658
First ever all-women's
pay-per-view event.
315
00:15:25,758 --> 00:15:28,995
Classic Trish Stratus, the
Stratusfaction.
316
00:15:30,229 --> 00:15:32,831
I was just happy to see the
event be successful.
317
00:15:32,832 --> 00:15:38,203
I was happy to see every single
match just surpass expectations.
318
00:15:38,204 --> 00:15:41,673
I mean, the whole card just blew
everyone away.
319
00:15:41,674 --> 00:15:43,843
And I'm incredibly proud for
being part of it.
320
00:15:44,877 --> 00:15:48,214
What an ovation for the
baddest woman on the planet.
321
00:15:50,950 --> 00:15:51,983
Armbar.
322
00:15:51,984 --> 00:15:53,419
Nowhere for Nikki to go.
323
00:15:53,519 --> 00:15:54,386
She taps out.
324
00:15:55,955 --> 00:15:57,589
It speaks to where the world
is at.
325
00:15:57,590 --> 00:16:01,026
It's nice to see women on the
same playing ground
326
00:16:01,027 --> 00:16:02,828
and as it should be.
327
00:16:02,829 --> 00:16:03,461
You know what?
328
00:16:03,462 --> 00:16:04,996
I think this is a huge victory.
329
00:16:04,997 --> 00:16:07,465
Not just for me, but I really
feel like we're finally on the
330
00:16:07,466 --> 00:16:10,002
road to getting the respect that
we've always deserved.
331
00:16:10,837 --> 00:16:12,604
What a night it's been.
332
00:16:12,605 --> 00:16:16,876
An historic night at WWE
Evolution.
333
00:16:22,882 --> 00:16:25,483
In 2015, the biggest talk of the
wrestling world was NXT.
334
00:16:25,484 --> 00:16:29,287
Once considered to be WWE's
developmental brand grew into
335
00:16:29,288 --> 00:16:31,791
its own identity and fans
couldn't get enough.
336
00:16:32,458 --> 00:16:35,727
At the forefront of this NXT
movement were NXT Women's
337
00:16:35,728 --> 00:16:38,397
Champion, Sasha Banks and
Bayley.
338
00:16:39,065 --> 00:16:40,632
Bayley's story was simple-
339
00:16:40,633 --> 00:16:44,169
the underdog who everyone said
couldn't win the big one.
340
00:16:44,170 --> 00:16:47,306
In front of the largest NXT
crowd at the time, there was no
341
00:16:47,406 --> 00:16:50,576
better place for the hugger to
prove her doubters wrong.
342
00:16:55,181 --> 00:16:58,350
Nearly 16,000 rabid
NXT fans have packed
343
00:16:58,351 --> 00:17:01,486
the Barclays Center in
Brooklyn, New York.
344
00:17:01,487 --> 00:17:04,590
Now it is all about the NXT
Women's Championship.
345
00:17:05,491 --> 00:17:08,426
I think that match was very
eye opening
346
00:17:08,427 --> 00:17:10,663
for the WWE universe.
347
00:17:12,665 --> 00:17:16,235
It wasn't just two friends
trying to see who was better.
348
00:17:16,802 --> 00:17:18,470
It was war.
349
00:17:18,471 --> 00:17:19,906
There's only so many times you
can take being
350
00:17:20,006 --> 00:17:21,707
mislabeled and misjudged.
351
00:17:21,807 --> 00:17:23,309
Believe me, Bayley's had enough.
352
00:17:23,876 --> 00:17:26,611
I just got to show everybody
that I can be this different
353
00:17:26,612 --> 00:17:28,948
side and I was taking myself
seriously.
354
00:17:33,452 --> 00:17:36,555
Seeing these two women go at
it just gave the rest of us so
355
00:17:36,556 --> 00:17:40,393
much hunger to want to do the
same.
356
00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:42,662
No, no, she won't.
357
00:17:42,762 --> 00:17:44,596
Whoa whoa wait wait wait.
358
00:17:44,597 --> 00:17:46,364
Reversal, reversal.
359
00:17:46,365 --> 00:17:47,565
How did she do that?
360
00:17:47,566 --> 00:17:48,967
Bayley reversed it.
361
00:17:48,968 --> 00:17:50,536
She reversed Sasha's own move.
362
00:17:52,038 --> 00:17:53,438
Here we go.
363
00:17:53,439 --> 00:17:54,573
Bayley.
364
00:17:54,574 --> 00:17:55,607
Bayley to belly.
365
00:17:55,608 --> 00:17:57,243
Bayley to belly for the title.
366
00:18:00,046 --> 00:18:01,647
Bayley has done it.
367
00:18:02,582 --> 00:18:04,249
We wanted to be there, you
know.
368
00:18:04,250 --> 00:18:06,484
And we wanted to show them that
we were good enough to be there.
369
00:18:06,485 --> 00:18:09,221
And I think the fans that night,
they were so happy for us.
370
00:18:10,156 --> 00:18:13,326
Bayley is your new NXT Women's
Champion.
371
00:18:18,531 --> 00:18:22,801
What we saw Sasha and Bayley
do set the tone for women's
372
00:18:22,802 --> 00:18:25,905
wrestling for years to come.
373
00:18:32,912 --> 00:18:34,613
We have now reached our
history making
374
00:18:34,614 --> 00:18:36,514
number one moment.
375
00:18:36,515 --> 00:18:40,352
For years, the women of WWE had
wanted one thing-
376
00:18:40,353 --> 00:18:41,553
Respect.
377
00:18:41,554 --> 00:18:43,755
Each and every woman that
competed in that squared circle
378
00:18:43,756 --> 00:18:47,993
desired an opportunity to prove
that they not only belonged,
379
00:18:47,994 --> 00:18:50,229
but belonged in the main event.
380
00:18:54,834 --> 00:18:58,970
Three of the top
superstars in all of WWE
381
00:18:58,971 --> 00:19:01,073
with both championships
on the line.
382
00:19:02,041 --> 00:19:03,776
Main eventing WrestleMania is
the dream.
383
00:19:04,243 --> 00:19:08,447
It is the goal of every single
red-blooded wrestler.
384
00:19:09,048 --> 00:19:10,515
And Becky right to Rousey.
385
00:19:10,516 --> 00:19:11,483
Oh my God.
386
00:19:11,484 --> 00:19:13,019
I'm exactly where I'm supposed
to be.
387
00:19:13,986 --> 00:19:15,553
I told you.
388
00:19:15,554 --> 00:19:17,389
I said I was going to Main
Event and I did it.
389
00:19:17,390 --> 00:19:19,058
And that's a full circle moment.
390
00:19:19,158 --> 00:19:20,525
Oh my God.
391
00:19:20,526 --> 00:19:22,728
Charlotte driven through the
table.
392
00:19:23,796 --> 00:19:26,364
Rousey is about to take it
all.
393
00:19:26,365 --> 00:19:27,500
Piper's pit.
394
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,634
Becky shoulders down.
395
00:19:30,936 --> 00:19:31,870
They did it.
396
00:19:31,871 --> 00:19:33,839
Becky Lynch.
397
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:41,813
Becky Lynch is the winner take
all and is both Raw and
398
00:19:41,814 --> 00:19:47,219
SmackDown Women's Champion.
399
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,857
I think more than any of our
individual accomplishments,
400
00:19:51,957 --> 00:19:55,193
we will all be remembered
for the role that we played
401
00:19:55,194 --> 00:19:56,228
in this moment in time.
402
00:19:58,664 --> 00:20:00,900
When you get presented with an
opportunity, you have to take
403
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,134
the ball and run with it and hit
a home run,
404
00:20:03,135 --> 00:20:04,203
and I think that's what
those girls did.
405
00:20:05,071 --> 00:20:07,472
There was never going to be
another first.
406
00:20:07,473 --> 00:20:10,475
There was never going to be
another time when Becky Lynch
407
00:20:10,476 --> 00:20:15,280
was ending WrestleMania walking
out with two championships
408
00:20:15,281 --> 00:20:17,449
with her father sitting
in the front row.
409
00:20:17,450 --> 00:20:20,019
And I wanted to make sure that I
really enjoyed it.
410
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,586
It's so overwhelming.
411
00:20:21,587 --> 00:20:23,155
Like, what a feeling.
412
00:20:23,789 --> 00:20:26,325
Becky Lynch takes it all
tonight.
413
00:20:31,063 --> 00:20:34,632
The women of WWE have all
something to be proud of.
414
00:20:34,633 --> 00:20:37,202
They've all laid the groundwork
for future generations to aspire
415
00:20:37,203 --> 00:20:39,905
to be anything they want and
have been
416
00:20:40,005 --> 00:20:42,040
inspirations for millions.
417
00:20:42,041 --> 00:20:45,510
That'll do it for this edition
of WWE's Greatest Moments.
418
00:20:45,511 --> 00:20:47,879
I hope you've enjoyed this look
back at the defining moments of
419
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,550
what we proudly call the women's
Evolution.
