PLAY BY PLAY

NJPW and AXS TV set the scene for this fierce finale to the tour!

The final stop will have a match truly befitting of the phrase, “Strong Style” as the Muscle Hawk was almost an undefeated Super Junior winner. However, that wasn’t enough, and he petitioned his way into this year’s G1 Climax. Shingo Takagi ended with a 4-5 record, respectable for a first-time competitor. But one of his biggest wins was against the Fierce Warrior, which would keep him out of the finals. Hirooki Goto wants a rematch, and now both men fight for even bigger prizes on the road to Wrestle Kingdom 14!

Los Ingobernables aren’t done with just Takagi. Evil and Sanada each want their road to WK14 to open before them. Cold Skull is poised to take on Kazuchika Okada for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship, but the King of Darkness wants to overshadow the Golden Star! Will LIJ take some big momentum in an attempt to completely conquer NJPW?

 

Six Man Tag: Los Ingobernables de Japon VS Kazuchika Okada, Kota Ibushi & Robbie Eagles!

The Black Mask joins his LIJ amigos in their effort to show the Rainmaker and the Golden Star who will run NJPW with the new year. But will the IWGP Heavyweight Champion and the man with the Right to Challenge be able to work together on the road to a Wrestle Kingdom showdown?

NJPW on AXS returns and Okada reveals the shorts! Fans love it! The teams sort out and Okada steps up, daring Sanada to meet him. Sanada accepts and we get a preview of their coming title match. Kobe duels and the two men hear it out. Okada and Sanada encourage fans to get louder, and Red Shoes takes a measure. It’s hard to tell, it seems so evenly split. Red Shoes considers it a tie, so the two tie up. Okada powers Sanada back to ropes, but lets up to give his usual fake out and shoulder pat. Sanada runs, blocks the kick, and trips Okada up! Okada pushes out of Paradise, to trip Okada and spin. Sanada pushes Okada out then runs, but Okada gets away. Sanada tumbles out then in, showing off his athleticism! Fans cheer and start dueling again!

Ibushi does and Evil runs, but Ibushi boots the lariat away. Ibushi runs but into a fireman’s carry! Ibushi resists and fights out, but Evil forearms him! Rolling elbow, but a ROUNDHOUSE in return! Both men are down but fans rally up again!

Ibushi and Evil stir, heading for their corners. And they tag to Okada and Sanada! Sanada and Okada both dodge but then Okada fires forearms. Sanada reverses the whip but Okada dodges and dodges to hit back with a back elbow! Fans fire up with Okada as he Alabama lifts Sanada. Sanada slips out, knees low and whips corner to corner.

Winners: Los Ingobernables de Japon, Sanada by submission

A big Six Man Tag win, but it also means Cold Skull goes forward with building speed! Will Sanada be too much for Okada to stop when they battle for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship? At the same time, Evil wants to take away Ibushi’s Right to Challenge, will Darkness Fall?

Wait! Okada tries but fails to dropkick Sanada! Sanada is slippery and it annoys Okada. Evil then SLAPS Ibushi, so Ibushi SLAPS back! They start throwing forearms! The bell keeps ringing to get all these men to settle down. Is King of Pro-Wrestling 2019 going to be an explosive one?

 

Hirooki Goto VS Shingo Takagi!

The Fierce Warrior was not able to make it back to the G1 Climax Finals, and it was essentially because of the Muscle Hawk. Will Goto make up for that loss and find his way back to a title? Or will the newly heavyweight Ungovernable Dragon be the one to head for gold instead?

NJPW on AXS returns as the bell rings. Goto and Shingo have the fans rallying already as they circle. They tie up and are rather even in strength. Goto powers Shingo back to a corner but Shingo turns it around. Shingo lets up with shoulder pats, but goes for a cheap shot! Goto is ready and hits back first! Goto whips Shingo corner to corner but Shingo comes back to collide shoulders! Neither man budges, so Goto throws forearms. Shingo gives them back and they go back and forth. Shingo fires up from it and keeps firing forearms. Goto keeps pace, gets an edge, but runs into an uppercut! Shingo spins Goto around but Goto slips out before Shingo can take his inverted GTR! Shingo kicks low, runs, but Goto follows. Shingo gets Goto up in a fireman’s carry but Goto slips out. Shingo snapmares out of True GTR but misses his sliding lariat. Fans cheer this fast and furious first exchange!

Shingo and Goto circle again, and they approach slowly. They feel out the grapple to a test of strength! They go shoulder to shoulder but Goto uses the knuckle locks to bring Shingo to his knees. Shingo fights his way back up and kicks free to headlock. Goto powers out and they collide with shoulders again. Goto stumbles back but rebounds to run Shingo over! Fans fire up as Goto eggs Shingo on. Things speed up and Shingo rebounds to run Goto over in return! Shingo drags Goto up for a suplex, but Goto fights back to suplex Shingo! Cover, ONE, but Goto keeps on Shingo with a chinlock. Shingo endures as Goto pulls him back. Goto digs an elbow into Shingo’s face then jams it in. Shingo goes to a corner but Goto stomps him down. Shingo gets mad as Goto throws forearms. Goto whips Shingo corner to corner, but Shingo boots. Goto blocks that to clothesline, but Shinog eggs him on! Goto fires off forearms, then runs, into a big back elbow! JAB and BOMBER!

Fans fire up as Goto bails out. Shingo follows to club Goto from behind. Shingo brings Goto around to throw into a post! Goto grazes steel but Shingo is still on him with stomps. Shingo drags Goto up and warns people to get clear. Shingo wrenches and whips Goto into barriers! Goto runs back at Shingo but gets caught into a fireman’s carry! Snake Eyes off the apron! Shingo drops Goto with a DDT! Fans are fired up for Shingo as he says he’s smarter than Goto. A ring count begins but Shingo takes time with it. He drags Goto up at 10 of 20 to put him in the ring. Shingo then slingshots for a knee drop! And he stands and even marches on Goto’s ribs. The ref reprimands Shingo but Shingo lets up with a stomp! Shingo welcomes the noise from the fans as he goes back to Goto. He whips and knees Goto at the ropes, then suplexes Goto up and over hard! Cover, TWO!

Shingo keeps on Goto with a chinlock and grinds him down. Goto endures and fights up. Goto reaches with his legs, and he gets the ropebreak. Shingo lets go to drag Goto up for elbows into Goto’s shoulder over and over. Shingo then leaps and drops a knee! Fans cheer and Shingo dares Goto to get up. Shingo drags Goto up, but Goto CHOPS! Shingo CHOPS, but Goto CHOPS! It is a CHOP fight! CHOP after CHOP and Shingo eggs Goto on! Goto keeps trying but Shingo double CHOPS Goto down! Shingo goes back to Goto to step on him and kick him while he’s down. Shingo even starts toying with Goto! That might not be wise, as Goto just gets up and gets mad. Goto blocks a kick but Shingo forearms. Shingo tries another kick but Goto deflects to LARIAT! Both men are down but Goto is up first. He grits his teeth as he drags Shingo up. Shingo blocks the saido with a headlock, but Goto powers out for a running heel kick! BIG Saido Suplex! Cover, TWO!

Fans cheer as Goto gets up again. Goto drags Shingo up to a fireman’s carry but Shingo resists. Shingo then slips out and waistlocks. Goto elbows back but Shingo clubs him on the back. Shingo runs, into a sleeper! Shingo drops to a knee as Goto squeezes tight with his shout out to Shibata. Shingo fights up and rams Goto into buckles! Goto lets go but he slips out of Shingo’s grip to try again! Goto hops on but Shingo makes it a backpack stunner! Both men are down as we go to break!

Goto survives Shingo’s muscular Gory Bomb but Shingo won’t lose his cool. Fans rally as Shingo looms over Goto. Shingo drags Goto up, pump handles, but Goto resists and pops out to throw Shingo down by his hair, to drive him across the knee! Shingo clutches his neck while Goto catches his breath. Shingo gets to a corner and Goto runs in, big corner clothesline! Then whip corner to corner but Shingo reverses. Shingo blocks the boot, and reels Goto in for a point-blank lariat! Fans cheer as Shingo hoists Goto up top. Shingo climbs up to join him but Goto fights back. Shingo headbutts away on Goto, then sits him up for a SUPERPLEX!

But Goto springs right up! Shingo runs into a snap German! Shingo springs back up, clubs away a clothesline, then gives Goto a snap SAIDO suplex! Goto is wobbly but Shingo has to catch his breath now. Both men crawl away for space. Shingo gets to the red corner, Goto to the blue. Fans rally and duel as both men stand. Shingo runs in but so does Goto, double clotheslines! A solid collision but neither man falls! They try again, but get the same result! So they try a third, fourth, and fifth time! Both men wobble but they go for a sixth, seventh, eighth! Still nothing, but Goto gets going. Shingo follows to hit at the ropes! Shingo runs but Goto returns the favor, only to run into an elbow! JAB, but Goto LARIATS! Goto fires up, runs, and LARIATS again! Cover, TWO!! Shingo still lives but Goto won’t stop!

Goto drags Shingo up, fireman’s carry, USHIG- No! Shingo slips out to wrench and pump handle, and holds Goto up for MADE IN JAPAN! Cover, TWO!? Goto survives!! Shingo glares as Goto goes to a corner. Shingo fires himself up and Kobe joins in. Shingo runs corner to corner, BIG clothesline! Then he keeps moving, but Goto dodges, PUMPING BOMBER still gets Goto! Cover, TWO?!? The Fierce Warrior is tough as ever! Shingo fires up, wanting to end this now. He drags Goto up, but Goto elbows back. Goto fires off until Shinog lets up, then reels him in, USHIGOROSHI! But Goto doesn’t cover, and he brings Shingo up again. Dragon sleeper, but Shingo slips around, so Goto just gives him REVERSE GTR! Cover, TWO!! Shingo survives but that doesn’t spare him. Goto drags Shingo up for point-blank kicks to the chest! That’s still not all, as Goto drags Shingo up again, powers up, but Shingo blocks the buzzsaw!

Shingo puts Goto’s leg on the rope, then the other, and has Goto for a draping GTR!! Shingo steals and escalates Goto’s signature! But that isn’t all, Shingo runs to PUMPING BOMBER! Cover, TWO!?! Where is Goto getting this from!? Shingo is beside himself but Kobe helps him refocus. Shingo drags Goto up once more, pump handle, torture rack, but dragon sleeper! Shingo slips around to suplex, but Goto resists! And again! Goto suplexes Shingo, SHOTENKAI!! But Goto is exhausted from that swinging STO! Shingo gets space but so does Goto. Goto wobbles and staggers but he finds the strength to stand up tall! BUZZSAW! And then, dragon sleeper! Shingo fights back, Goto swings him out, Shingo headbutts! Goto headbutts! They BOTH headbutt! Shingo runs, pop-up to USHIGOROSHI GTR!! Cover, TWO!?! The Dragon refuses to die! Goto drags Shingo up again, dragon sleeper, TRUE G T R! Cover, Goto wins!!

Winner: Hirooki Goto, by pinfall

It took so much, but the Fierce Warrior avenges his G1 Climax loss! Will we get a third match between these two as a tiebreaker? Will Goto get gold again before then?

 

NJPW Media Backstage Interview

Goto sits with a bottle of Chateau Mouton Rothschild. He had it sent over from France especially for a day like today. It’s so high-class, it’d be a shame to drink it. But there’s also no glasses. They opened it, so they should drink it. IT is a premium wine aged 23 years, but Goto has been wrestling for 16. He isn’t quite that wine, but he feels pretty well-aged. He’s basically at his peak. There are still lots of guys he wants to fight and will have to fight. It all depends on the next bout. Soon, he will give an answer. “But I think I’m gonna have a good night tonight.” Will Goto be able to string together several good nights, good fights and good wins?

 


 

My Thoughts:

A pretty great hour, and what a great surprise Kobe will get two hours from AXS. Of course, a lot of stuff did happen that night, but for now we’ll worry about this hour. Los Ingobernables de Japon got great representation this hour, though they went 1-1. We got a great Six Man Tag that helped plug the two top stories, but it was pretty obvious Eagles and Bushi were in this to take a fall so there wouldn’t be math involved on the big matches coming up. Okada was weirdly chippy yet not a sore loser with those dropkick attempts at the end, while Ibushi and Evil were extremely combustible. I don’t see NJPW pitting LIJ against each other like this, as interesting as Sanada VS Evil for the top prize would be. I would think Ibushi wins to keep his Right to Challenge contract, but something makes me think Okada VS Sanada could go either way.

Then Shingo VS Goto, that was some heavy hitting stuff! And it completely works for Goto to win as the veteran, and to keep his story with Shingo going. Their tiebreaker could be seen as a contender’s match. Stories going on make me think the NEVER Openweight Championship is off the table. Current champ Kenta is entangled with Tomohiro Ishii and even Yoshi-Hashi, so chances are Ishii gets the match and Hashi helps him as revenge on Kenta and Bullet Club’s screw job. It obviously won’t be THE Heavyweight Championship, that’s obviously spoken for. So it will either be the IWGP United States or Intercontinental Championship. Knowing what we know from Kobe in real-time, the Intercontinental Championship isn’t necessarily off the table but could still be spoken for. Either way, it would be pretty big if Shingo came out the winner of the tiebreaker and lined up for a title program, and logical given the push he’s had since that great run in the Best of the Super Juniors.

My Score: 8.7/10

Andrew’s TNA iMPACT! Results & Match Ratings: 3.28.2024

TNA tapings from Philly! Knockouts Number 1 Contender is decided! Rich Swann explains his heel turn and Chris Sabin vs Steve Maclin in the main event!

Published

on

Hey, even if Xplosion has been a complete waste of 45 minutes, last week’s iMPACT! showed some promise with this newer direction at least. We’re getting a return of the 8 for 1 match for the Knockouts World Title. So we’ll get a number one contender for Jordynne Grace, apparently Chris Sabin and Steve Maclin have a match, but we get some answers from Rich Swann on his heel turn.

Time to see what else we have going on!

Ratings:

  • 8 for 1 Match: Rosemary, Dani Luna,  Xia Brookside & Steph DeLander vs Havok, Jody Threat, Masha Slamovich & Alisha Edwards: Dani wins via Schoolgirl Roll-Up – **
  • Dani Luna vs Steph DeLander vs Xia Brookside vs Rosemary: Steph wins via TKO – * 1/2
  • Grizzled Young Vets (James Drake & Zack Gibson) vs Cody Deaner: GYV wins via Grit Your Teeth – SQUASH
  • Josh Alexander vs Tracy Williams: Josh wins via C4 Spike – ***1/4
  • Mike Bailey w/Trent Seven vs Eddie Edwards w/Brian Myers & Alisha Edwards: Eddie Edwards wins via Boston Knee Party – *** 1/2
  • Steve Maclin vs Chris Sabin: Maclin wins via KIA – *** 1/2

 

Results:

8 for 1 Match: Rosemary, Dani Luna,  Xia Brookside & Steph DeLander vs Havok, Jody Threat, Masha Slamovich & Alisha Edwards

So this is a random tag pairing, which the winning team than faces each other in a Fatal Four Way for Number One Contender position; that explains why half of Decay and Spitfire are on opposite teams. 

Steph faces off with Havok first but tags out to Rosemary to try and shirk responsibility, but Rosemary and Havok work together to level Steph and then Rosemary tags back out to purposefully bring DeLander back into the match. Havok throws Steph around a bit, even Lish gets in some offense, most notably her Bodyscissors Bulldog, but Steph tags out to Dani, Dani and Masha go after each other and then the match slowly starts to break down.

Dani hits the Rope Assisted Blue Thunder Bomb on Masha for 2, and starts looking for the Luna Landing. Masha slips it and we go into a bit of a locomotion Cradle spot which Dani gets the best of and wins the tag for her team!

Dani Luna vs Steph DeLander vs Xia Brookside vs Rosemary

As the match is getting set up, Masha attacks Dani to wipe her out. So the other three start fighting, Xia charges a corner, gets ole’d and she flies into ASH by Elegance who was seated at ringside because she had cosmetic surgery and couldn’t wrestle. ASH posts Xia, gets banished from ringside by the referee, back in the ring Rosemary does her rise from the dead spot and looks to finish Steph but Matt Cardona comes out of nowhere, hits the Radio Silence, Steph DeLander hits the TKO for the easy 1-2-3.

Steph DeLander is number one contender and Matt Cardona is back! Not a terrible wrinkle. The match barely existed but at least these returns are nice. 

GYV hits the ring to complain about Cody Deaner costing them the match against Time Splitters last week. So they call him out and he’s out in Red and Yellow trailer park Flash attire. Santino apparently is allowing Deaner to pick one of the GYV members to fight. Philly picks both, so Deaner attacks both. 

Grizzled Young Vets (James Drake & Zack Gibson) vs Cody Deaner

Cody gets the best of Drake early but then the GYV work over Deaner a bit early, Gibson starts talking smack and Deaner tries to Hulk Up, and it seemingly works. Combination Punches, Manhattan Drop, Corner Bulldog, tries the Deaner DDT, but Gibson cuts him off with a throat chop.

Drake uses the scarf to take advantage of the referee not looking, and then some Grit Your Teeth gives the GYV a win.

Josh Alexander walks out again to be the Talking Weapon…and yeah, not really a big fan of when he speaks. He’s dressed to wrestle so lets hope its an open challenge or a Philadelphia Drink Off with Sandman showing up…or something. Just not a lot of talking, please. OH GOOD, open challenge. Josh calls out Hammerstone, but he gets some Hot Sauce instead of Hammers.

Josh Alexander vs Tracy Williams

As expected with these two, early World of Sport style open with some chain wrestling into athletic counter wrestling and shrugging off both men’s first attempt at submissions. They both take a beat, then we go into a Chop Battle, Williams slows Josh with a Kitchen Sink, but Josh grabs him in the Vertical Suplex and then spill over the ropes. Josh is back in first, Williams tries to crawl up, eats a strike and then eats Josh’s Low Crossbody spot. So now Josh starts dogwalking Williams around the outside.

Josh throws him back in, drives a knee into his face, but as Williams tries to fight back, Josh stops all of that with a Northern Lights Suplex Hold for 2. Josh goes for a Heel Hook to weaken the ankle for a potential Ankle Lock. So just early joint manipulation and Back Breakers from Josh leaves Williams writhing and absorbing so much…not really fighting back much. Tracy tries a desperation short Headbutt to the gut like he’s Spike Dudley, but it seems to just annoy Josh. A few traded Overhand Chops, C4 Spike attempt but Tracy drops his weight. Josh gets a little arrogant, starts with a few half assed slaps and it allows Tracy to fire a few strike, Back Drop Suplex, drives Josh into the corner and sets up the Avalanche Butterfly Suplex. Tracy goes for a submission but Josh is too close to the ropes.

With all of Williams’ offense, Josh manages to fire through and land an Exploder Suplex to rock Tracy. A few more big moves from Josh, into the Power Breaker seems to give Josh all of the momentum. C4 Spike again, Back Drop counter, Back Elbow and Tracy tries a corner set up but Josh cuts him off and they start fighting on the top. Williams counters the Superplex, DDT into the top corner buckle, Death Valley Driver into an STF, then Crossface but Josh is fighting. Piledriver attempt from Williams, straight right says no, Release German Suplex, straps go down but Tracy kicks Josh in the face. They trade Big Boots, Josh with a Backslide into the C4 Spike for the win!

Both these guys chant kicks up, Josh offers the handshake, they go for the corny Indie respect moment and Hammerstone hits the ring and lays them both out. Hammer puts the head gear on Tracy and throws him into the Torture Rack. 

This might be Ali’s best promo ever.

Mike Bailey w/Trent Seven vs Eddie Edwards w/Brian Myers & Alisha Edwards

I do really like The System’s theme song. 

Eddie goes for the NOAH Chop, Bailey ducks the first one and tries to keep things quick, but Eddie catches him and caves in his chest real quick. Front Kick from Bailey into the Back Handspring that culminates into a Gamengiri, Eddie powders and Speedball goes for the Tope con Hilo. Arm Wringer into a Round Kick to the chest. Bailey breaks the count, eats a chop and then get go into a kicks and chops trading spot. Myers provides enough of a distraction since they’re on the outside so Eddie scoops Bailey and Blue Thunder Bomb on the apron.

Another count reset, this time from Eddie and the Chops continue from Eddie. Eventually Eddie throws Bailey back into the ring, very unceremoniously, drops a knee to the eyes and goes for 3 pinfalls in quick succession. Fingers to the eyes, chops to the chest, Backpack Stunner attempt but Speedball wriggles free and John Woo Dropkick gives him some space. Spinning Back Kick, Axe Kick, Round Kick, Running Shooting Star, for 2! Speedball slaps his chest to try and send a message while he starts lighting up Eddie with about half a dozen Round Kicks to the chest. He then goes for the Lightning Kicks while Eddie is on the ropes, Myers pulls out Eddie, Bailey attempts a dive but puts the brakes on, acts like he’s distracted by Myers but avoid Eddie’s sneak attack. Kick to the face into a Corkscrew Asai Moonsault, back in the ring, Tornado Kick from Bailey, goes for Ultima Weapon but he eats a Gamengiri into the Backpack Stunner for 2!

Both men rise, Chop from Bailey sends him on his ass, and we go back to kicks versus chops. Bailey with the combination kicks, tries the Buzzsaw but Eddie moves, Lariat! Tiger Driver attempt, but Bailey says no, Backflip Knees gives Bailey all the momentum. He tries the Tornado set up, Myers and Alisha get involved but Trent Seven nullifes Myers, Bailey with the Double Clutch Superkick to rock Eddie, he goes back to the Tornado set up but Lish grabs his feet, Bailey fights her off, drops Eddie, goes for Ultima Weapon but misses! Boston Knee Party to the back of Bailey’s head, Eddie wins!

There’s a quick video package for the FBI next week. Not sure if that means we only see Guido, or if Vito and others will show up.

Rich homie Swann and AJ Francis show up and I’m fairly sure he named them “First Class”. They keep saying AJ Francis in the same cadence as AJ Styles, so I get what they’re doing there. And Swann basically says AJ was the only one who cared about how Rich was doing, Hendry just stole his thunder and did nothing. “If you ain’t First Class, you’re last” – Talladega Nights references? Well now.

Steve Maclin vs Chris Sabin

Mostly an uneventful start, a few moments from both men, Sabin speeds things up when he ducks out and baits Maclin to try the Scud Missile, but he outsmarts him by sliding back in. Maclin doesn’t full commit to the dive but does roll out a little hard which gives Sabin the chance to jump on him. Baseball Slide, Wristlock over the ring post, throws him back in and looks for a Grounded Top Wristlock. Sabin acting a bit more like Shelley with the joint focus, but Maclin manages to use the ropes to his advantage and bounce Sabin off of them twice.

Maclin finally has some control, Forearm to the low back, drapes Sabin on the middle rope and drives the knee into the back of his head. Maclin lays in some chops, grounds any of Sabin’s attempts and locks in a Chin Lock. Sabin finally fires up , but Maclin hits the Olympic Slam to stifle Sabin’s attempts. Maclin perches Sabin, tries the Superplex but a few punches and a bite gives Sabin an opening and Sabin connects with the Missile Dropkick. Manhattan Drop into a Crucifix cover for 2, Swinging Neckbreaker causes Maclin to retreat to the corner and Sabin focuses a few Forearms to the back of the head and a Snap DDT.

A few wild swings from Maclin give Sabin a gift, so he goes for the Crossface. Maclin barely rolls tot he ropes to break the hold, powders out and moves out of the way of the Plancha. BUSAIKU KNEE to level Sabin. Jar-Headbutt for a near fall! Maclin Tree of Woes Sabin, Caught in the Crosshairs, Sabin sits up but Maclin knows how to avoid the post. A small back and forth, Mayhem for All and only a 2 count! Jar-Headbutt number two misses, La Magistral for only 2, both collide with lariats and then go into the Fighting Spirit spot. Slugfest but Sabin hits a Sole Butt, Sabin tries to continue but Maclin coldcocks Sabin sending him to the outside, Scud Missile Dive – MISSES! Maclin is laid out on the outside, count out starts, Sabin is back in around 6, Maclin barely beats the 10. Springboard Tornado DDT from Sabin for a near fall!

Cradle Shock attempt, but Maclin fights it off. Sabin jumps, misses, Tree of Woe, Caught in the Crosshairs! Maclin tries the KIA but Sabin turns it into a Wrestler’s Bridge Pinfall for only 2, but Maclin holds on to the arms, connects with the KIA and wins!

 

Overall Score: 7/10

Well aside from the fact the opening match was a little bit of a hectic mess and Kon is still a storyline relevant thing…the better portion of the episode was pretty fun. I didn’t love the allusions to Santino handing out rights to challenge and open challenge vouchers, felt like a weird “authority” figure kind of spin. But when he finally showed up and continued to be the lovable goof, its all good.

Ali had his best promo ever, “Mr Rhinoceros”, was a great way to spin into the conversation with Rhyno. Sabin steering more into Shelley’s bag of tricks and still coming up short is interesting. Steph DeLander with the big return win and bringing Cardona back with her is generally a fun angle. Speedball looked awesome and Hammerstone did a great job looking like a massive douche and executing the best Torture Rack since Lex Luger.

Of course there’s a few gripes, but all in all, it was pretty fun.

Athena VS Nikita!

The Fallen Goddess was stressed out watching Hikaru Shida tune up for Supercard of Honor, so she’s getting back in the ring to work through that. Will Athena prove this is still her show? Or can The Russian Vixxen take advantage of Shida being on Athena’s mind?

The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and then Athena rushes in! Nikita dodges to rally with lariats and a SLINGBLADE! The fans rally, Nikita runs in at the corner and she SPLASHES, to then BULLDOG! Athena gets spiked and Nikita gets fired up! Nikita brings Athena up, underhooks, then PEDIGREES! Cover, ONE?!? Athena is tough but Nikita is still surprised. Nikita storms up but is sent into buckles! Nikita stops herself just in time, and she ROCKS Athena! Nikita brings Athena in while she goes up the corner, for a HANGING HEADSCISSOR! The ref counts, Nikita lets off, but Athena gets mad!

Athena DIVES and wipes Nikita out against barriers! Athena is mad now, and she brings Nikita up to THROW her into railing! Athena shouts at Nikita, then wheelbarrows to SWING her into barriers! Athena says you’re welcome and takes a bow, then she goes back for Nikita. Athena puts Nikita in, looms over her while soaking up cheers and jeers, then stalks Nikita as she crawls. Athena hauls Nikita up, CLUBS her again and again, then underhooks for a BUTTERFLY SWING! Athena TOSSES Nikita away, drags her up, and then HALF HATCH SLAMS! Nikita is dazed, but Athena sits her up. Athena ties up the legs and puts on a STANDING CROSSFACE! Nikita taps, Athena wins!

Winner: Athena, by submission

Ahead of crossing swords with the Shining Samurai, the ROH Women’s World Champion is sharpening her edge. As such, she SHOTGUNS Nikita back down! The fans boo as Athena CLUBS away on Nikita! Athena then puts Nikita in the Tree of Woe and lifts her up, to KICK away on Nikita’s back! Athena takes the belt, puts it in front of Nikita’s face, and she trots as she takes aim. But wait! Here comes Shida! The fans fire up as Athena runs away! Shida helps Nikita out of the Tree, then picks up the belt Athena left behind! She even dares Athena to come get it back! Is Shida going to be the one that finally dethrones the Overlord? Or will Athena make sure “forever champion” means forever?

 

Backstage interview with Lee Johnson.

Renee Paquette is here to talk with Big Shotty, and notes his impressive 2024 streak. He asked for this time, so what’s going on? Lee says that he has said it before and he will proudly say it again. He is not here to take part, he is here to take over! And now let him add something else: he is here to take titles! Now, he has heard there’s an ROH World Television Championship match between one champion in Kyle Fletcher and All Heart, Blake Christian. Now, whoever comes out victorious, Lee’s calling his shot! Supercard of Honor, Big Shotty’s got next! Lee is ready to swing for the fences, is he going to get his chance to hit it out of the park?

 

Dalton Castle VS Nick Comoroto!

The Peacock is still in his slump, and not even his substitute Boys are enough. Meanwhile, did the Freak Beast really shave his beard? Then which change will be the more hindering? Castle without Brandon & Brent, or Comoroto with Jacoby Watts?

The Code of Honor is upheld, and in tight quarters, and the bell rings. The fans rally for Castle as he and Comoroto circle. Castle squats low, real low, then he rushes up to collar ‘n’ elbow! Comoroto powers Castle right to a corner, the ref counts, and Comoroto lets off at 4. Comoroto makes the pecs dance and then flicks sweat at Castle. Castle storms right up, and he, uh, “hip” checks Comoroto! Comoroto gives it back! Comoroto smirks but Castle gets those hips moving. Then he hits the low leg takedown! He rolls Comoroto then CLUBS away on him! Comoroto gets free, kicks low, then ROCKS Castle with a haymaker!

Comoroto bumps Castle off buckles then RAMS into him again and again and again! The ref counts, Comoroto whips Castle but Castle reverses to TOSS Comoroto! Comoroto holds on and he manages to skin the cat! A big cat at that, but Castle waistlocks! Comoroto holds onto ropes to stop the lift, then he backs Castle into a corner. Comoroto throws elbows, gets space and comes back, but into a BOOT! Castle runs up, into a LARIAT! The fans rally, Comoroto huffs and puffs and brings Castle up. Comoroto reels Castle in, but Castle Alabama Lifts! Comoroto CLUBS Castle down then shoves him away.

Comoroto swings but Castle blocks to ROCK him first! Castle fires more forearms, but Comoroto shoves him away. Comroto runs up, Castle gets around, BIG GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans fire up, Comoroto staggers to his feet, and into an Alabama Lift! BANGAAAAAA~RANG! Cover, Castle wins!

Winner: Dalton Castle, by pinfall

Comoroto is a big man, so this was a big win for The Peacock! But wait, here comes Taya Valkyrie! And she tells Castle, “How dare you say that we are irresponsible! Yeah, we lost The Boys. But after the short time we had them, I realized how rude and annoying they are! So, I’m glad we lost them! Because they were a couple of BAD boys!” The fans boo but Taya says yeah, she went there! And they probably got it from Castle! Because Castle never loved them! Not like Mommy & Daddy TV loved them! So for that, Castle deserves this! Sneak attack by Johnny TV! MOONLIGHT DRIVE and a SHINING WIZARD!

Johnny rains down fists on Castle, then says they were BAD boys! Castle set a bad example for them! They’re all losers! The fans boo but Mr. & Mrs. TV just stand over Castle to make out! Then they stomp Castle on their way out! Even as he wins matches, will Castle still be lost in life with The Boys lost in the woods of Canada?

 

Mark Briscoe speaks.

“Philadelphia. For #DemBoys, that is the origin of professional wrestling. That’s when we felt it. That’s when we said this is in our soul, man.” Jay himself once said, “This is what we was created to do, man.” Baddest tag team on the planet, almost a quarter century, and BOOM, it gets taken away in a moment. So Mark’s starting over from square one, flying solo. Continental Classic, the game plan was to get on top, and to soar! But his wings were clipped, humbled once again. But there’s this voice inside of him, it’s Jay’s voice, that says, “Don’t worry about that broken wing, son. You was born to fly. With wings like an eagle, we gonna mount up.”

Mark knows Eddie Kingston’s got that same voice inside of him. “Ain’t that some s*it?” Mark knows Eddie’s had the highs and lows, the peaks and valleys, just like Mark. Eddie became the first American Triple Crown Champion, took on all comers defending that, but then lost to the AEW Continental Championship to Kazuchika Okada. Eddie talked to his mentor, Homicide, and agreed that it is time to tap into something from the past. Into that hungry Eddie, that ruthless Eddie, that vicious Eddie. The Eddie with that dog in him! That Pitbull! Every yard has a top dog, but Eddie, you may be ROH World Champion, but Mark’s gonna show you in Philly that MARK is top dog!

April 5th marks 11 years to the day that brother Jay won his first ROH World Championship. And just like he told Mark, time to man up. Eddie, it is time to man up. Philly, it is time to man up! Mark Briscoe VS Eddie Kingston, ROH World Championship, Supercard of Honor, we will man up. But who will be the man that holds up that title at the end of the night?

 

Diamante VS Kiera Hogan!

The Cuban Diamond won big in a Four Corner Survival, and she won in the opening round of the ROH Women’s World Television Championship tournament. Both of those losses only served to fan the flames, and now Kiera wants to turn up the heat! Will Kiera get her lick back? Or does Diamante just have Kiera’s number?

The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and the fans rally as the two circle. They tie up, Diamante headlocks, and she grinds the hold. Kiera powers up but can’t power out as Diamante holds tight. Kiera tries again, but Diamante still keeps the headlock on. Kiera throws body shots, powers out again and is free, but Diamante runs her over! Cover, ONE, and the two stand off. The fans rally as the two reset and go again. Kiera headlocks this time, dares Diamante to keep that same energy now, but Diamante grinds her forearm into Kiera’s face. Diamante powers out but Kiera runs her over! “And that’s all, periodt!”

The fans rally as the two reset again. Kiera wants that Miami heat, so the two tie up again. Kiera wrenches an arm, wristlocks, but Diamante rolls, kips up and wrenches back. Diamante wristlocks then hammerlocks, then spins Kiera for a snapmare. Diamante clamps on with a chinlock and she grinds Kiera down. Kiera fights up, pries the hold open, and fans cheer as she wrenches back. Kiera uses the hammerlock to wrangle Diamante, then she bridges over! Diamante endures, so Kiera floats to a facelock. Diamante gator rolls free and wrenches Kiera to a top mounted armlock! Kiera endures and the fans rally again.

Kiera fights up, wrenches and wristlocks, but Diamante goes to ropes. The ref counts, Kiera lets off quickly, and the armbands come off! They tie up, Kiera wrenches and wristlocks. Diamante ROCKS Kiera! Kiera falls, Diamante stomps her, then drags her up to ROCK her again! Diamante ROCKS Kiera one more time, then runs the ropes, but into a BOOT! And ROUNDHOUSE! Cover, TWO! Diamante stays in this and she kicks right back. Diamante whips, Kiera ducks ‘n’ whips to then drop and trip Diamante! Kiera keeps moving, STEP-UP LEG DROP! Cover, TWO! Diamante sputters and goes to a corner but Kiera eggs her on.

Kiera fires forearms now, then whips corner to corner. Diamante hits buckles hard, then Kiera fires up. The fans rally behind her as she runs in, but Diamante drop toeholds her into buckles! Diamante then stomps away on Kiera in the corner! The ref counts, Diamante lets off at 4, and she drags Kiera up to put her against buckles. Diamante stomps some more, then goes corner to corner and back again, HYDRAULIC DROPKICK! Diamante drags Kiera to the cover, TWO! Keira stays in this and Diamante is annoyed. Diamante sits Kiera up and traps an arm before she clamps on, cording hold and SHOULDER CLAW!

Kiera endures this modified cobra twist, and Diamante even grinds her forearm into Kiera’s face. The fans rally as Kiera fights up. Kiera throws body shots, ROCKS Diamante, but Diamante RAMS Kiera into the corner! And RAMS her again! Then CHOPS! Diamante puts Kiera up top, ROCKS her, then ROCKS her again! Diamante climbs up to throw more shots, and then brings her up. The fans rally while Kiera blocks the suplex! Kiera throws body shots, then shoves Diamante away! Diamante comes back, but Kiera MISSILE DROPKICKS her! Diamante tumbles and the fans rally while both women are down.

Kiera pounds the mat to fire up again. She nods as she rises, the fans behind her. Kiera runs up to CLOBBER Diamante! And she CLOBBERS her again! Diamante swings, Kiera blocks to snapmare and “EAT IT!” SUPERKICK! The fans fire up as Kiera goes Around the World to HIP ATTACK! Then side to side, BOOT WASH! Cover, ROPEBREAK!! Diamante gets a bit lucky and Kiera is frustrated. Kiera fireman’s carries but Diamante fights it. Then she CLAWS Kiera’s eyes! CHOP BLOCK! Diamante fires up now, she dragon sleepers, and says goodnight. But Kiera throws knees to say not yet!

Kiera snapmares free, runs up, SUPERKICK! Diamante flounders, Kiera hauls her up, FACE THE MUSIC! Bridging cover, Kiera wins!

Winner: Kiera Hogan, by pinfall

The swinging fisherman neckbreaker punctuates this one, periodt! Kiera wants to be the first in line to face the inaugural ROH Women’s World Television Champion, but just who will it be? The Queen of Guinea, Queen Aminata? Or Athena’s protege, Billie Starkz?

 

BREAKING NEWS for Supercard of Honor!

It’s already a big night with the title matches, including the crowning of the first-ever ROH Women’s World TV Champion, but now even Stardom is getting in on the action! It will be a Six Woman Tag as Mina Shirakawa, Maika & Mei Seira take on Saya Kamitani, Tam Nakano & AZM!

 

Hikaru Shida speaks.

“In AEW, I won Woman’s World title three times, I beat Toni Storm, I beat Saraya, Willow, Anna Jay, almost everyone. I need stimulation! And so do you. Right, Athena? Do you remember the moment we faced each other in the ring last year? I know you’ve been excited! I know fans have been excited! But… the person who has been excited most is me. Excited to beat up the ‘forever champ.’ So, hello, ROH! Be ready for a new era. Because Holy Shida has arrived!” The Shining Samurai is ready, but will she be able to cut down the Fallen Goddess?

 

ROH World Television Championship: Kyle Fletcher VS Blake Christian!

As Supercard of Honor approaches, it is about time the Protostar returned to ROH TV. But will this return be less than triumphant? Or will All Heart be an easy target for the Aussie Arrow?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who heads for Philly!

The Code of Honor is not upheld as Kyle kicks Blake’s hand away, so Blake shakes his own hand. The bell rings, the two circle, and they tie up. Blake wrenches, wristlocks, but Kyle shoots around to waistlock and SLAM! The fans boo but Kyle soaks it up. Blake gets up, he and Kyle reset and circle again. They tie up, Blake waistlocks then headlocks. Kyle powers out and runs Blake over! Kyle flexes to show he’s bulking up, but then Blake blocks a stomp! Blake kips up but Kyle breaks free to ROCK Blake! Things speed up, Blake hurdles, drops down, then DROPKICKS! Blake kips up and dusts himself off and the fans cheer.

Blake says va fa Napoli, Kyle rushes in, but he blocks Blake’s arm-drag. Kyle whips Blake away but Blake handsprings to wheelbarrow, victory roll, and SPLASH 182! Cover, TWO! Kyle gets away to ropes and catches his breath. Blake storms up, wrenches and whips, but Kyle blocks by holding ropes! Blake CLUBS the arm, but Kyle avoids the chop to clothesline Blake up and out! Fans boo as Kyle builds speed, but Blake slides in! Kyle stops the tope and goes back to the apron, only to get a 619! The fans fire up as Blake builds speed, and Blake FOSBURY FLOPS into the EYE OF THE HURRICANE!

The fans are thunderous as Blake gets Kyle up and in. Cover, TWO! Kyle stays in this but Blake stays cool. The fans rally again as Blake aims from a corner. Blake says he’s becoming champ, and he runs in, but into a POP-UP SWINGING SIDE SLAM! Cover, TWO! Blake survives and Kyle is annoyed again. Kyle tastes a bit of blood in his mouth, maybe cut his lip or tongue on his teeth. But he shrugs that off to stalk Blake to ropes. Kyle stands Blake up to CHOP him down! The fans “WOO~!” as Kyle pretends he can’t see where Blake went. Fans want that “One More Time!” and Kyle brings Blake up again.

Kyle has Blake in the corner now, winds up, but Blake dodges the chop to CHOP! CHOP! CHOP! MACHINE GUN CHOP! The fans fire up as Blake runs, but Kyle CLOBBERS Blake! Blake is dazed as Kyle hits an Ospreay level elbow shot. Blake crawls to a corner, Kyle eggs the fans on, and Kyle storms up on Blake. Kyle whips corner to corner, but Blake goes up to handstand! Kyle runs in but Blake BOOTS Kyle, then drops into the DDT!! The fans fire up while Kyle sputters! Kyle finds his way to ropes, comes back, but Blake ELBOWS him!

The fans rally as Blake climbs the corner to the top. But Kyle springs up to SWEEP the legs! Blake hits buckles then falls to the mat! Kyle huffs and puffs and aims from the corner. Kyle runs in, GAMANGIRI! And then suplex, BRAINBUSTER!! Cover, TWO?!?

The fans are thunderous again and Kyle cannot believe it! Kyle drags Blake up, but Blake goes to fireman’s carry! Kyle fires off elbows, reels Blake in and- NO, Blake slips outta the bomb to fireman’s carry! Kyle reaches for ropes so Blake HOTSHOTS him on them! Kyle is stuck up there, so Blake goes up a corner! GUILLOTINE FROG SPLASH!! Blake hurries to get Kyle in, then hurries to the corner! Blake runs, step-up, but Kyle makes it a sunset flip! TWO, Blake sits on it, TWO! Kyle deadlifts Blake into a PILEDRIVER!! Cover, Kyle wins!

Winner: Kyle Fletcher, by pinfall (still ROH World Television Champion)

Kyle pretends he can’t hear all the boos, but he can’t pretend he doesn’t see Lee Johnson walking out on stage! The Aussie Arrow may have hit the bull’s eye tonight, but is he about to get shot down by Big Shotty?


My Thoughts:

A great ROH at an hour and 20 minutes, and even the matches I skipped ended up being a lot of fun to watch. Great comedic stuff in Cutler & Cabana winning, with Cutler showing off how cut he is under the tracksuit. And there was a great mix of comedy and meaty men slapping meat in Uno VS JD Drake, with a great win for Uno in his home country of Canada. KPK got a great showing here but that added to the quality of the win for Top Flight. And good win for Maria Kanellis’ boys but there was no story advancement with Spanish Announce Project so that was pointless.

Great opening stuff with Athena, in that she dominated Nikita but then got run off by Shida. Shida had a good promo though I wouldn’t have waited until right before the main event to play it. As I said before, Athena VS Shida is going to be great stuff, and this could be the moment for Athena to lose and then move on to AEW to get in on those titles. There was a great video recap package to hype Billie Starkz VS Queen Aminata, but nothing from those two directly. Diamante VS Kiera was really good, and it was logical for Kiera to win since Diamante won their previous 1v1 match. This doesn’t automatically make Kiera the #1 contender to the Women’s TV title, but she’s in the conversation.

Great match from Castle and Comoroto, and honestly, Comoroto looks good clean shaven. Good win for Castle, and of course Johnny & Taya beat him down to add to his misery. I still want savage, feral Boys to return to help Castle get revenge on Johnny & Taya, though. And awesome main event for the men’s TV title. Blake looked great even in defeat, but uh, what happened to Ethan Page? Another dropped ball in the ROH TV title division and Lee Johnson gets to run with it now. Kyle is more than likely defeating Lee at Supercard, but that really depends on what part he’s going to play in Ospreay’s story within the Don Callis Family.

My Score: 8.7/10
