00:00Springboard moonsault over the guardrail to the floor.
00:09Very interesting.
00:11It is interesting.
00:13No problem.
00:14He's hurting, Kenny.
00:15He's hurting.
00:17He's not getting up, dude.
00:18He's not getting up.
00:19Hey, nothing.
00:20He's not getting up.
00:21I don't want to speculate on anything.
00:22That's why I didn't bring up the name.
00:24We saw it in the G1 final also.
00:29And now, Okada is in trouble.
00:34In a lot of trouble right now.
00:39This is a good chance for Kenny to get his breath back.
00:42One, two, three.
00:45You got count three.
00:46And how does Omega play this?
00:48I think he waits and goes and gets him.
00:53Just as the count gets started, Okada starts to come back up.
00:58He's having a lot of trouble as you can imagine.
01:01Regaining his balance.
01:02There is Kenny on the floor to go get him.
01:07But there's the table.
01:08Got the table.
01:09Got the table.
01:10Watch out.
01:11Watch out.
01:12Watch out.
01:13Oh.
01:14Double stomp on the table.
01:15Right on Okada's chest and abdomen area.
01:28Now watch where he lands.
01:30Right in the abdomen area.
01:33Oh my God.
01:34Steve, you're not kidding.
01:35Oh.
01:36This is serious.
01:37That is awesome.
01:38That may knock the wind out of him.
01:40This is used to win.
01:42Okada on his side right now.
01:44You can't see it on camera, but he is on his side almost in a fetal position.
01:50It usually means he is trying to catch a breath and not going down his side.
01:55Omega going right out after Okada.
01:58No way.
01:59Not letting him breathe.
02:00No.
02:01The time is now.
02:02And Omega is making his move.
02:04He is going to put Okada away here.
02:06Beautiful powerbomb.
02:10Drove him through.
02:11Kachoo!
02:12Oh my goodness.
02:13And I think this crowd is starting to realize history here.
02:30It's 9.15pm.
02:31This show has been absolutely long and worth it.
02:36Here's the strength of Kenny Omega.
02:39A second one.
02:40And it's in out one.
02:41Feet over the legs.
02:42Whoa.
02:43The sit out powerbomb.
02:44I think a lot of people here at the Tugudum thought that was it.
02:52What power.
02:53Kenny Omega.
02:54Yeah.
02:55You see this massive crowd on hand here.
02:57Okada over 240 pounds.
03:00Now wait a minute now.
03:01The Young Bucks.
03:02They have.
03:03You see they've set up that table.
03:06I got to remind you that it was Okada that brought the table out to begin with.
03:17That was Okada early on.
03:19Looked to get revenge for Omega driving him through the table.
03:23But now it looks as if for the second time Kenny Omega is going to drive the IWGP Heavyweight Champion straight through that table.
03:36Great referee worked by Red Shoes.
03:49Doing everything he can to not allow Kenny Omega to drive Okada through that table.
03:59But instead now.
04:00Stay out.
04:01Stay out.
04:02Stay out.
04:03Stay out.
04:04Come on.
04:05Come on.
04:06Come on.
04:07Come on.
04:08Come on.
04:09Come on.
04:10Come on.
04:11And.
04:12Oh.
04:13That is not a good look there for Okada.
04:18And Ghetto knows it.
04:20You can hear as he was pounding away on the mat.
04:21Oh.
04:22Once again.
04:23Led with the lower back.
04:38Kidney area.
04:39Okada trying to find strength.
04:40It just seems like the longer we get into this the stronger Kenny Omega gets.
05:00Okada desperately gets a boot up.
05:03Again the second time.
05:04This time both boots.
05:06Yeah.
05:07Boom.
05:08Boom.
05:09Boom.
05:10USGH.
05:11Yeah.
05:12Oh.
05:13Yeah.
05:14Great strong damage.
05:14Off.
05:15Strength on display.
05:16From Omega.
05:18Yeah.
05:20In to that moonsault.
05:22Could it be enough?
05:23With a leg hook to the shoulders down.
05:26Oh.
05:27Oh.
05:28That was so close.
05:29So close.
05:31And I'm gonna go back to it again.
05:34I'm gonna...
05:35I'm gonna beat this horse.
05:35Has him up in the fireman's carry, the roll through, driving those shoulders into the core area.
05:43Followed up by the second rope moonsault into the core area.
05:49He's doing everything he can to set up this one winged angel.
05:56Because I think he knows he has one shot in it.
06:05Abdomen, right, see, it's right to it.
06:10Whoa, still with enough to be able to get up for that drop kick though.
06:15It was Kenny that fell, not only to the map, but all the way down to the floor.
06:22We go to the replay.
06:23Here's what put Omega in that position.
06:25Okada got all of it too.
06:30You said it.
06:31I think you're exactly right, Steve.
06:32Omega may just have one opportunity to hit that one winged angel.
06:37Okada smartly taking his time, not rushing.
06:43Get that air into those lungs.
06:48Taking a lot of abuse to the core, the lower back, letting Omega come to him.
06:53But now Omega walking right into what Okada has in mind.
07:02He's got him up.
07:04And now, they're imploring a no, the unbucks are.
07:08And now, my God, no.
07:12Listen to this crowd.
07:14No, winged angel, no.
07:18I feel like this crowd, my heart was stopping for a second here.
07:22Hard knife, let's chop there by Omega.
07:33Stopped any momentum that Okada thought he was building.
07:37Back drop over the table, my God.
07:53Back drop over the table, my God.
07:55He launched him, watch this.
08:02Back drop over the table, the table explodes.
08:08But Kenny Omega's lower back.
08:15You see the doctors over there.
08:19Magic Jackson over there.
08:21Okada.
08:22He's giving instructions, great instructions.
08:24We can definitely see a count out here.
08:29Yep.
08:30He's counting.
08:33Oh, real four, babe.
08:34Come on.
08:35Oh, my God.
08:37Just kidding.
08:39Young Bucks, they realize that Omega's in trouble.
08:47Wait a minute.
08:48Now Okada goes out at the count of 12.
08:51Oh, Steve, Okada breaks the count.
08:53What?
08:54Okada's not going to take a count out win here.
09:07And now it's Okada.
09:08Omega barely pulling himself back up to his feet.
09:11Oh, what a missile drop kick, my God.
09:14Whoa.
09:17Here's a cover and a count of two.
09:19And so close.
09:21He got all of that kick.
09:25That was awesome.
09:32Red Ink.
09:34I'm getting word.
09:35Red Ink.
09:35I told you.
09:37Make it the face that is nice and quiet.
09:39I know.
09:40He's got a poop ton of email.
09:42That's okay.
09:43It's okay.
09:43It's good.
09:44Thank you very much, everybody out there on Twitter.
09:46Here we go.
09:47There's the elbow.
09:48Connects right to the chest.
09:50Could this be the beginning of the end for Kenny Omega?
10:05Come on, come on.
10:09Come on, come on, come on.
10:09Get up.
10:13Okada's taken a lot of abuse.
10:15Look at the wealth on his back.
10:16The backdrop over the top rope through the table to the floor may have been the deciding factor.
10:24Here we go.
10:25Rainmaker, no.
10:30As soon as that wrist was clutched, before he could pull him in for the short arm clothesline.
10:35Oh, it's okay.
10:36It's okay.
10:36It's okay.
10:37Omega.
10:37It's still in this game.
10:38It's still in this game.
10:39It's still in this game.
10:40On pure instinct, went to the ropes.
10:41No!
10:42What?
10:42Oh, my God.
10:43Oh, my God.
10:44It's too bad.
10:46Now he's going to the lower back.
10:48Nope, nope.
10:49Rainmaker.
10:50Nope.
10:51No.
10:52Ah!
10:53Back inside.
10:54Beautiful.
10:55Oh.
10:56Omega drives.
10:57Okada.
10:58Come on.
10:59Continuing to do the work, Steve.
11:01Absolutely.
11:02Going back to the original strategy, core, lower back, kidneys.
11:07Get him up there.
11:08Get him up there.
11:09Get him up there.
11:10Get him up there.
11:11Get him up there.
11:12He's trying to use every little bit of strength.
11:14Look at that.
11:15He's going to his lower back, his hip area.
11:20He opened himself up to take those shots.
11:27Oh!
11:28He just slapped him into Friday.
11:30Oh, oh, oh чем!
11:41Oh, oh, oh!
11:42Oh, oh, oh!
11:44And now, Omega.
11:46Oh!
11:47Oh, yeah!
11:48, , , , , .
11:49Driven down by Okada.
11:50You're not gonna getfall through the fight baby.
11:51.
11:54Looks like, Omega, getting a little frustrated.
11:55Oh my God.
11:57Oh,osa!
11:58Oh my God.
11:59Oh my God.
11:59Oh my God.
12:00Oh my God.
12:00He will try for a second time.
12:06Looks like he's going for that quick release dragon suplex.
12:12But this time from the top.
12:16Oh my.
12:17Oh, this is so dangerous for both men.
12:24Oh no!
12:30Both men down.
12:32Drives him.
12:36Omega isn't enough.
12:38Has he done it?
12:40No!
12:43And a collective.
12:45Oh, look at this.
12:49Oh, head first.
12:50Oh my god!
12:59Years from now when Okada gets neck using surgery, he is going to remember that moment.
13:07And now Kenny Omega.
13:12We'll try it again.
13:16Dean Burden Griffith on the suplex.
13:17Turns it over.
13:18Neckbreaker.
13:19So early on, it was the lower back.
13:24But now he has moved up to the neck.
13:27Set him up.
13:29Set him up for that one wing to Angel.
13:32He is working his way up from the lower back core area all the way up to the neck.
13:40He has, I totally believe that he has one chance to hit this.
13:46Oh!
13:46Oh!
13:47High angle German suplex, but he holds on.
13:53Maintains control.
13:54Maintains waist control.
13:57Omega's glassy odd.
14:04Pulls it in.
14:06Rainmaker no.
14:09Oh!
14:11He rocked him with that one.
14:13That was a heavy, heavy knee.
14:15Jump kick!
14:16Jump kick!
14:29Let us go back to the replay.
14:31Drop kick hits him right in the face.
14:34He got all of it.
14:35But it took a lot out of Okada.
14:39Can he have enough left?
14:42Here we go.
14:42Does he have enough left for the Rainmaker?
14:44No!
14:46Oh!
14:49Blocked the first, couldn't the second.
14:52Reverse Rana!
14:53You can see Okada trying to give up on his legs.
15:01His legs went weak.
15:10This crowd is on fire!
15:12Oh!
15:12Oh!
15:18Can he put him away?
15:22Here we go!
15:24One-winged angel!
15:25No!
15:27Somehow he lands on his feet!
15:29Two-star!
15:33Two-star!
15:42Does he have enough?
15:48Rainmaker!
15:56Oh!
15:57Come on!
15:59You can't see it at home, but Kevin Kelly and myself just came out of our champs.
16:14I looked over each other's side, and he just gave us an improving nod.
16:21That's all you're going to get from him.
16:23Wow.
16:25Kenny Omega somehow kicked out of that Rainmaker.
16:30And I think it's a testament to the work that he put in on the core, on the lower back, on the neck area, that Okada didn't get all of it.
16:41But if he hits it again...
16:42Yeah, but you said earlier, Omega may just have one shot for the one-winged Angel, and Okada was able to power through and turn things around.
16:52So who truly is in control here?
16:54It's anybody's ballgame right now.
16:59Omega's doing everything he can to create some space.
17:18I don't think Okada's feeling any pain right now.
17:22He is on instinct.
17:23Right to the eyes.
17:26To the eyes!
17:30Oh my God!
17:32What a dropkick!
17:37You're still in this, baby.
17:40He can't beat you.
17:42He can't beat you.
17:43He can't beat you.
17:43He can't beat you.
18:03He can't beat you.
18:04He can't beat you.
18:04Here we go.
18:08Omega fighting!
18:09Whoa! Whoa!
18:13Turns it, oh! Cover!
18:17One, two, no! He kicks out!
18:27Oh! So close!
18:31So close!
18:39What an instant classic!
18:43We are seeing here!

23:41Sometimes when you're so excited, it's hard to get words out and
23:45And
23:47That's what we we were feeling there
23:51mouth open jaws drop watching
23:57Okada and Omega do what they do best
24:02Dare I say
24:06There have been 25 main events on January 4th. I may have just found my new
24:15MVP heavyweight champion
24:23Kenny Omega put up the fight of his life
24:30Kicking out of multiple brain makers
24:35But it was the last one that counted
24:39We're gonna see the championship belt ceremony
24:42We'll hear some words from Okada
24:49What do you say after something like that my gosh, I mean I
24:54Know he respected Kenny Omega going into this fight. He said just that
25:01But Kajushka Okada
25:03I
25:05Don't think you can see it on camera, but can you see the welts?
25:09On night in the the left side of night are up
25:12Okada's neck yes
25:16And again for anybody that said well
