PLAY BY PLAY

Xia Brookside VS Aleah James!

Nina Samuels pushed some buttons and egged this second gen superstar into taking on the energetic and bubbly boxer from Essex! Will Xia get back on the winning side of things? Or will Aleah catch her with a surprise knockout?

The bell rings, the two circle and fans rally up. Xia and Aleah shake hands to show there’s sportsmanship, and they tie up. Xia wrenches an arm to a wristlock, keeps on the hold, but Aleah cartwheels then wrenches back. Xia rolls, handsprings and wrenches again to have the wristlock. Xia hammerlocks, Aleah throws some elbows but Xia keeps on the hold. Fans rally, Aleah flips and drop toeholds to then float to a headlock! Xia gets up, Aleah wrenches and YANKS the arm, then has the wristlock. Xia goes to ropes, uses those to flip through and wrench back for a headlock takeover. Xia grinds Aleah down but Aleah rolls to a cover, ONE!

Aleah powers Xia to a headscissors and fans rally up again. Xia bridges, Aleah pushes her down and pushes up to add torque. Xia kips and kips but can’t get free. She turns, headstands and pops out to then PENALTY KICK! Then Xia does her hip shimmy to taunt Aleah. Xia snapmares and KICKS Aleah in the back! Xia hooks Aleah up, Aleah resists, but Xia still gets her for a grounded cobra twist! Xia cranks on the arms but Aleah gets one free. Aleah pushes up, fans rally again and Aleah hits a JAWBREAKER!

Winner: Aleah James, by pinfall

Xia is shocked! Aleah gets a big win outta nowhere, and the frustration is boiling up in Brookside. Aleah offers a handshake but Xia slaps it away! Xia storms off, what will it take for her to get out of this slump?

 

NXT UK Media catches up with Meiko Satomura.

She’s helping Emilia McKenzie train but how is she feeling about her coming match with Jinny? Meiko says this is good timing for a title match. Meiko knows Jinny is dangerous, but she’s not the Final Boss, Meiko is. Meiko goes back to Millie, will the Best in the World be razor sharp for her battle with the Spoiled Princess?

 

Kenny Williams speaks.

“I think there’s a bit of a misunderstanding. When I said I was relentless, that I was resilient, that I was indestructible, that doesn’t mean I was undefeatable. Everybody, anybody, can be defeated. But what makes me indestructible is up here.” NXT UK is full of insecure little boys who need instant gratification from the WWE Universe. But not Kenny. “Those little maggots” that watch are going to be disappointed. But we’re going to be in for the shock of our lives. If you thought Kenny was bad before, you’re about to find out how low the Scum of the Earth can go!

 

Symbiosis VS Dave Mastiff & Jack Starz!

Eddie Dennis and his human weapons have been doing whatever whenever, and the dynamic duo before them says enough is enough! Will Primate & Tyson T-Bone be tamed by the Bomber and the Gatekeeper?

Pretty Deadly is on commentary to watch this one close up. The teams sort out and T-Bone starts with Starz. They tie up, T-Bone throws Starz down, but Starz gets up to circle with him. They tie up again and T-Bone puts Starz in a corner. The ref counts, Starz dodges the haymaker to ram in his shoulder! Starz whips, T-Bone reverses but Starz goes up and over to fire off dropkicks! Starz arm-drags T-Bone down and fans fire up. T-Bone fights up, Starz wrenches but T-Bone ROCKS him! T-Bone scoops and SLAMS Starz, then brings him up to whip to a corner. Starz bounces off buckles, T-Bone scoops him for a FALL AWAY SLAM! T-Bone pushes Starz around, covers, ONE!

Tag to Primate and Symbiosis mugs Starz. Primate wrenches and CLUBS Starz down then grinds the arm. Starz endures, fights up, Primate wrenches again and has the wristlock. Starz rolls, cartwheels and handsprings to hop under and kick Primate out of the ring! Starz kips up and dropkicks Primate off the apron! And then he dropkicks T-Bone! Mastiff gets in to CLBOBER T-Bone! Primate returns but Starz fires off EuroUppers! Starz whips, dropkicks and arm-drags Primate to an armlock! Starz makes it a top wristlock but Primate endures. Starz wrenches, tags in Mastiff, and fans fire up as Mastiff headbutts Primate down!

Starz tags Mastiff back in. they mug Primate in their corner, but Primate fights back! Primate stomps Mastiff’s foot and tags in T-Bone! T-Bone boots, whips but Mastiff reverses to kitchen sink knee! Mastiff drags Primate up, bumps him off buckles and tags in Starz. Starz throws EuroUppers, CLUBS T-Bone, then throws more uppercuts. Starz wrenches, T-Bone reels him in for a back suplex BACKBREAKER! Starz is in the Symbiosis corner but he fights out!

T-Bone shoves Starz away but Starz dodges the haymaker to DECK Primate! T-Bone CLUBS Starz then throws him out! Dennis gives orders, T-Bone lets Starz get up on his own, so that Primate can scoop and SLAM Starz to the floor! T-Bone goes out to fetch Starz now, brings him up and into the ring, then drags him up to SIT-OUT POWERBOMB! Cover, TWO! Starz is still in this and Symbiosis grows frustrated. Tag to Primate, T-Bone brings Starz out on the ropes, Primate springboards to drop ax handles! Primate shoves Starz to ROCK him in the back, then hits a BIG back suplex! Fans boo as Primate roars but Primate drags Starz by a foot to the Symbiosis corner!

Tag to T-Bone, Symbiosis mugs Starz, then double SLAMS him for a DOUBLE STOMP! T-Bone drags Starz around, suplexes and holds Starz up for a count of 10 before the SLAM! Cover, TWO! T-Bone throws Starz out again, and again he distracts the ref. Primate scoops again but Starz slips out to scoop and SLAM Primate! Starz hurries back up, he shoulders into T-Bone and goes up the corner! Starz leaps to CROSSBODY! Tag to Mastiff! Fans fire up as Mastiff brawls with T-Bone! Mastiff gets the edge, T-Bone shoves him away but T-Bone runs into an OVERHEAD Belly2Belly! And then he shoves T-Bone into Primate before the fireman’s carry, ROLLING SENTON!

Dennis gets on the corner, Mastiff swipes at him, but T-Bone mule kicks! T-Bone swings, into a GERMAN SUPLEX! Mastiff has his target, he runs corner to corner INTO THE VOID! Starz wants in, but Dennis attacks! Dennis uses a chair on Starz!!

Winners: Dave Mastiff & Jack Starz, by disqualification

Primate CLOBBERS Mastiff! Symbiosis sacrificed the win to deal damage on their opponents! Dennis chokes Starz with the chair, Mastiff is getting mugged 2v1, but here come Ashton Smith & Oliver Carter! They have their own beef with Symbiosis and they CLOBBER Primate and throw hands on T-Bone! Carter throws Primate out to Dennis, then Smith CLOBBERS T-Bone! DOUBLE DROPKICKS send T-Bone out! Pretty Deadly don’t get what this is about, but the message was clear to Symbiosis! Will Dennis and his pack learn to be careful who they pick a fight with?

 

Amale speaks.

“The first and only French superstar in all of WWE. I carry the hopes of a nation on my shoulders. And that’s a responsibility I take very seriously. SO let’s be clear. What happened last time against Emilia was a fluke and will never happen again.” She’s back in action next week, and nothing will stop her.

 

NXT UK Media catches up with Charlie Dempsey.

They note how he said he had high expectations for himself, but how does he feel he’s going? He feels like it’s been great so far. Josh Morrell was a great first opponent to test himself against, and he’s really looking forward to seeing what the rest of the roster has to offer. This could be the start of a great legacy. Gallus walks over and likes that he wants to leave a legacy. He should do that, the same Gallus did on the NXT UK Tag titles. “Just don’t let your legacy get in our way, pal.” Dempsey stands up tall and Gallus wants him to keep cool. They head off, and Dempsey says he’s going to get back to training.

Suddenly, Teoman and Roha Raja start beef with Gallus over the Breakout Tournament! Will the Family get even with the Gallus boys soon enough?

 

NXT UK presents an all new Supernova Sessions!

Noam Dar and Sha Samuels set their set up in the ring. “Hello, hello, hello! Hear me now! Live from the moon, welcome to another edition of Supernova Sessions.” Since day one in NXT UK, Dar’s made it his mission to become everything they said he couldn’t be and wouldn’t be. That continues next week as he proves he’s the star player in the WWE when he runs victory laps with the Heritage Cup. Everyone’s running scared, and they should be. Class being class, and they’re class. But speaking of next week, welcome their guest, Tyler Bate. Fans cheer as the Heritage Cup Champion, and Trent Seven, head to the ring.

Bate carefully sets the cup down on the table, Dar gets impatient as Moustache Mountain take their time sitting down in the guest chairs. Wait, Seven wasn’t invited. What’s he doing here? Oh wait, the same thing he always does: riding Bate’s coattails. Seven stands up but Bate keeps him back, and Sha tells “granddad” to take his seat. Dar and Sha sit on the couch and Dar says there’s this idea that he doesn’t like Bate. That’s partially true, and Sha confirms for himself that he definitely doesn’t like Bate. But Dar has respect for Bate. That’s why he is extending a courtesy to simply relinquish the cup to him right now. That saves Bate the embarrassment and beating Dar has in store. If Bate shows up, it is over.

Bate and Seven talk it out, and Bate says he can. NOT! Sit down and shut it. Get a grip, man. Get real. Oh he wants to get real? Okay, well, Dar says Bate’s fallen off, gotten complacent, and Sha adds that he’s lazy! Bate never learns from his mistakes. In fact, one he doesn’t learn from is carrying around the deadweight weird uncle. They’re too focused on tag team endeavors or whatever these DAFTIES do on Moustache Mountain. Seven gets up again and says that while he isn’t worried about the cup, the NXT UK Tag Team titles mean the world to him. Bate keeps Seven calm and says Seven is right, tonight isn’t about the tag titles.

Bate has no idea what planet Dar thinks he’s on, or what Sha has in his flask, but every single time Bate and Dar meet, the result is the same. Next time they meet, history will repeat itself: Dar will be flat on his back, awoken from a deep slumber to the sweet, sweet sounds of the brass section, playing “Bah! Bah dah!” Dar says Bate is scared, shook even! Seven asks if Dar is done. When Dar fails again next week, he’ll be done. Dar sucker punches Bate! Sha keeps Dar back, Seven helps Bate up but also keeps him back. Bate almost gets at Dar but Dar and Sha get away! Dar says he’s the big strong boy now! Thank you, buh-bye! But will it finally be Dar’s time? Or does he go 3-0 real quick?

 

The Gallus boys prank Jordan Devlin.

While Devlin is listening to his tunes while working out, they snatch his jacket! Devlin turns around to see the jacket is gone and goes looking. Will he get even with the firm when it’s just him and Joe Coffey?

 

Speaking of Gallus…

After the confrontation between them and “The Family” in the UK Performance Center, Mark Coffey will take on Rohan Raja 1v1 on behalf of their teams!

 

Joe Coffey VS Jordan Devlin!

Because Markus and Wolfie got a little too involved behind the referee’s back, it was only fair that NXT UK run it back again. The Iron King wears the Irish Ace’s jacket out to the ring, will Devlin take it back as he takes his revenge?

Speaking of, Devlin attacks right from behind on the ramp! Devlin stomps away on Coffey, CLUBS him around the way then stomps him against the barriers! Devlin CHOPS Coffey, throws him at the ring, but Coffey rebounds to CLOBBER him! Coffey stomps, throws EuroUppers, and then ROCKS Devlin. Devlin RAMS Coffey into the apron, puts him in the ring, then trips him up to slingshot TORNILLO! Devlin soaks up the heat while the ref checks on Coffey. Coffey still wants the match so the ref rings the bell, and Coffey throws hands on Devlin! Devlin ends up in a corner, Coffey throws more hands, but Devlin gets around to a headlock and takeover.

Coffey rolls to a cover, ONE! Devlin grinds the hold, Coffey fights up, but he can’t power out as Devlin holds tight! Coffey fights up again, fans rally, and Coffey pushes Devlin around. Coffey powers out and trips Devlin up, then throws EuroUppers! Coffey whips, Devlin reverses then ducks and dodges, only for Coffey to scoop. Devlin slips out, waistlocks but Coffey switches and shoves to then go the other way and CROSSBODY! Fans fire up with Coffey and he whips Devlin into a corner. Coffey scoops Devlin for a BACKBREAKER, and holds on for a SIDEWALK SLAM! Cover, TWO! Fans rally as Coffey brings Devlin up to wrench and RAM him with a shoulder.

Devlin sits up to throw body shots but Coffey blocks to a cording hold. Coffey cranks the arm, Devlin endures. Devlin fights up, powers Coffey to ropes but Coffey uses that to arm-drag! Coffey keeps on the cording hold, Devlin fights up to his feet again, and Devlin goes up to headscissor, only for Coffey to SLAM him down! Coffey still has the arm for the cording hold, but Devlin fights up to go up and around, then POST Coffey! Devlin goes corner to corner to HESITATION DROPKICK Coffey back into the post! Devlin goes out to BEND Coffey against the post! The ref counts, Devlin stops at 4, and Devlin stomps Coffey down!

Devlin soaks up the heat, CLUBS Coffey, but Coffey throws body shots! Devlin hits Coffey back, puts him in a corner and CHOPS! Coffey headlocks Devlin, Devlin powers out and hurdles, drops and kitchen sink knees! Coffey writhes and clutches his ribs but Devlin stalks him. Devlin drops an elbow, covers, TWO! Another cover, ONE! Devlin is annoyed but fans rally up for Coffey. Devlin stands Coffey to DECK him with a haymaker! “Every day of the week, baby!” Devlin drags Coffey up, whips him hard into a corner, and watches Coffey crawl along the ropes. Devlin KICKS Coffey, Coffey blocks! Devlin throws slapping shots and he knocks Coffey down!

Devlin drags Coffey up again to reel him in for a cobra twist! Coffey endures, fans rally, and Coffey powers out with a HIP TOSS! Coffey keeps moving, he BOOTS, then catches Devlin, only for the back to give up! Devlin gets around, and has a body scissors! Coffey clubs Devlin, but Devlin lets him spin through for a body scissors on the mat! Coffey endures the squeeze, Devlin pulls hair and CLUBS Coffey on the back. Devlin rolls Coffey to a cover, TWO! Coffey pries at the legs, fans rally up, and Coffey gets up with Devlin as a backpack! Coffey RAMS Devlin into buckles and is free! But Devlin goes up the corner to LEAP, into an uppercut!

Both men are down and fans rally back up. Coffey throws hands, whips but Devlin reverses, Coffey still runs Devlin over! Coffey keeps moving, FLYING SHOULDER TACKLE! Cover, TWO! Coffey gets up and runs at Devlin in the corner but Devlin boots him! Devlin runs but into a pop-up POWERSLAM! Cover, TWO! Devlin survives and fans fire up again. Coffey stalks Devlin, waistlocks but Devlin fights the suplex. Devlin gets Coffey for the URENAGE and STANDING MOONSAULT! Both men are down again but fans keep rallying. Devlin drags himself to a corner and the top rope. Coffey runs over to SHORYUKEN!

Coffey climbs up to join Devlin but Devlin throws body shots! Devlin slips out and under, drags Coffey down but Coffey elbows him away! Double jump CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO! Fans continue to rally up as Coffey grits his teeth. Devlin’s in a corner again, Coffey blocks the boots but Devlin lands on the apron, SLINGSHOT CUTTER! But Coffey rolls and flops to the floor! Devlin goes to the apron, aims and PENALTY KICKS! Coffey staggers, Devlin ASAI MOONSAULTS! Direct hit and down go both men! The fans fire up as a ring count starts. Devlin gets up, brings Coffey up at 5 of 10 and he puts Coffey in at 6.

Devlin takes a breath, gets up on the corner, but Coffey goes right up after him! SUPER OVERHEAD SUPLEX!! But Coffey’s ribs bother him, he can’t make the cover! A standing count begins, Devlin and Coffey head for each other. Coffey throws body shots but Devlin gives them back. Devlin CLUBS Coffey, brings Coffey up but Coffey throws fast hands! Devlin ducks to fire them all back! Devlin ROCKS Coffey but Coffey gets around to throw more boxing hands! Uppercut after uppercut in the corner!

Devlin goes to a corner, Coffey runs in, GLASGOW SENDOFF! And then ALL THE- HEADBUTT!! Devlin intercepts the Best for the Bells then goes up top! 450 SPLASH!! Cover, TWO!!! Fans fire up, Devlin drags Coffey up, DEVLINSIDE!! Cover, Devlin wins!!

Winner: Jordan Devlin, by pinfall

It was truly 1v1 and Devlin won in one hell of a slugfest! Is this enough to prove the Irish Ace is worthy of facing the NXT UK Champion?


My Thoughts:

A great episode for NXT UK, even with just three matches. Xia VS Aleah was a short match but Aleah winning and Xia getting frustrated does bring us a little closer to that Heel turn in Xia I’m sensing. We got decent promos from Meiko Satomura, Kenny Williams and Amale, but the interesting one was what started as Dempsey’s promo “interrupted” by Gallus turned into Gallus getting into it with Raja and Teoman. Teoman’s family is going to add someone, just as they said last week, but I’d be surprised if it was Dempsey. I feel like that’d be rather odd for Dempsey, he just got started and could have a few matches before getting a feud.

Symbiosis VS Mastiff & Starz was a really good tag match but I didn’t think they’d do a disqualification finish here. I suppose that’s one way of keeping both teams strong. Carter & Smith getting involved makes sense given their recent matches with Symbiosis, and I’m thinking these three teams fight in a contender’s match to then go on and challenge Pretty Deadly. Symbiosis is probably the team that takes the loss to one of the Face teams. Supernova Sessions being in the ring is rather odd for the framing of it but with fans back, they had to move things around. It was a pretty good segment otherwise, and I have a feeling Sha and Seven will play a part in the finish.

Coffey VS Devlin was a very good match, definitely a touch better than their previous match. Devlin getting the win makes sense, since he didn’t have to worry about the Gallus boys getting in the way and he targeted Coffey’s ribs. Devlin’s been building up outside of title stories for awhile, I have a feeling he could move up and be a major challenger for Ilja Dragunov.

My Score: 8.4/10

Coverage

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.

PLAY BY PLAY

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! Blake whips, Kyle reverses but Blake goes up and over and dragon sleepers! BACKBREAKER to SCREW HIGH KICK!

Kyle tumbles out, scrambles back up, but Blake goes up and out to APRON SPEAR! Blake just keeps going, and he DIVES! Direct hit with the Low-pe Suicida, and Blake puts Kyle right back in! Blake climbs up, Kyle sits up, into the ALL MACHO ELBOW!! Cover, TWO!!! Kyle survives and shocks everyone! Blake is frustrated, but he refocuses and calls his shot. 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
