The big Spring event for NJPW

NJPW and AXS reach the end of the road and arrive at Wrestling Dontaku! The Bullet Club civil war continues as The Cleaner, Kenny Omega, takes on the Problem Solver, Hangman Adam Page. And the Golden Star, Kota Ibushi, looks for payback against The American Nightmare, Cody, in their own grudge match!

OFFICIAL RESULTS

  • Cody VS Kota Ibushi; Cody wins.
  • Kenny Omega VS Hangman Page; Omega wins.

PLAY BY PLAY

NJPW and AXS review what led to tonight’s matches.

The American Nightmare fired the first shot when he went after the Golden Star so aggressively. The Cleaner stood up for his old friend, but that only made Cody go after him. Kenny and Kota reunited as the Golden Lovers, and won against the team of Cody and Marty Scurll, and even the Young Bucks. However, Cody would regroup with Adam Page, and together, they gave the Golden Lovers their first loss since returning. Then over in NJPW’s partner promotion, Ring of Honor, Cody and Kenny went 1v1, and Cody won! Of course, it was partially thanks to a mistake by the Young Bucks, but Cody accepted it either way. However, Kota Ibushi beat Hangman Page in their own 1v1, so things are still even.

Tonight, opponents trade off to see which leader can best the other’s partner. Will Cody make Dontaku a nightmare for Kota? Will Hangman take his moment back from Omega? Or will the Golden Lovers be the ones to sweep the night?

 

Cody VS Kota Ibushi!

The American Nightmare kisses his literal ring of honor for good luck, but he’ll need more than luck to win this rematch from Wrestle Kingdom 12. Can Cody even his 1v1 series with the Golden Star?

The bell rings, and the fans cheer for “Ibushi! Ibushi!” Cody and Ibushi circle, but then Cody flexes atop a corner. He returns to circling with Ibushi, and the two tie up.

Ibushi kips up, so Cody lets him go. Cody kicks the barrier in frustration, then chucks a chair into the ring! Red Shoes and Ibushi avoid getting hit, but Cody keeps pacing.

The American Nightmare has control while we go to break.

NJPW on AXS returns as Ibushi fights back from the floor. Cody kicks him back, then shoves him to robes for forearms to the back. Cody hangs Ibushi up on the top rope for the draping low kick! Cover, TWO, but Cody keeps his cool. Ibushi gets to ropes but Cody brings him up. Cody throws a forearm, but Ibushi starts to fire up.

They go back and forth with forearms, then kicks, then palm strikes. They slap and slap fast and furious, but Cody kicks to then hit the dropping uppercut. Ibushi comes right back with a clobbering clothesline!

Fans fire up while both men are down from exhaustion. Cody and Ibushi stir, then slowly stand. Ibushi whips Cody but Cody reverses, and Ibushi has to stop himself before colliding with Red Shoes! Cody runs in, and as Ibushi evades, Cody corner splashes Red Shoes! Red Shoes goes down, but now Cody goes after Ibushi. There’s no authority to tell Cody no, so Cody drags out a table!

Cover, Cody wins!

Winner: Cody, by pinfall

The American Nightmare ties the series! Cody toughs it out, and finds the openings he needed. The supposed new leader of Bullet Club conquers one Golden Lover, but what about the other?

 

Kenny Omega VS Hangman Page!

The Problem Solver chose Cody’s side when he felt The Cleaner wouldn’t give him his moment in the spotlight. With Cody and Hangman having beat The Golden Lovers in a tag team match, and now Cody having beat Ibushi 1v1, can Hangman help complete the sweep? Or can Omega remind everyone why he is the REAL leader of the Bullet Club?

But before the match begins, Cody jumps Kenny!

Cody and Hangman stomp away on Omega, keeping the match from beginning. Hangman brings Omega up while Cody fetches a new table. Omega fights Hangman off, then dropkicks the table into Cody’s face! Omega then aims to slingshot, but Hangman waistlocks and pulls him away. The bell rings and this match is actually underway.

Omega standing switches, but Hangman elbows out. Hangman runs, but into Omega’s huricanrana. Omega finally takes off the robe, to then slingshot onto Hangman!

Omega gets back in the ring, and kneels for the Terminator pose. The drums start up, and Omega rises. He runs, builds speed, and FLIES onto Cody and some young lions!

The Cleaner wipes them all out, but fires up with the fans again. Omega gets back in the ring but Hangman gets him with a German Suplex. Hangman climbs up while Omega rolls out, and jumps for a SUPER Moonsault!

Hangman takes out Omega, then springs back up. He puts Omega into barriers, then into more barrierss. Cody and Hangman toss in chairs and tables, and Hangman picks Omega up. Hangman stands over the unfolded table, to drop Omega with a Rite of Passage!

The table cracks from the impact, but Hangman keeps on Omega by putting him in the ring. Hangman grabs the chair now, and aims at a bleeding Omega. Red Shoes stops Hangman frmo swinging, so Hangman shoves Red Shoes down! Omega kicks low, then sees the blood dripping down. That only serves to fire Omega up, and he grabs Hangman for a DDT. Hangman reverses out, kicks low, and he gives Omega the chair DDT! Omega bleeds more, but Hangman stalks him to ropes. Hangman pushes Omega all the way out, then follows him out to chop and punch Omega against the barriers. Omega staggers around but Hangman follows. Hangman throws more hands into the bleeding wound. Red Shoes comes over to check on Omega, but Hangman grabs Omega for a suplex. Omega resists, then snap suplexes Hangman!

Hangman and Omega are both slow to stand up, but Omega has Hangman first, for a back suplex to the apron! Hangman is sore now, and Red Shoes still wants to check Omega’s wound. Omega keeps going, bringing Hangman up in a fireman’s carry. Omega hits “You Cannot Escape!” Rolling Senton! The roll seems to make Omega dizzy, but he gives a thumbs up that he’s okay. Omega goes to the railing, and uses those to springboard back! Hangman rolls and Omega lands on his feet, though he still staggers and rolls back. Omega gets up and runs back over, and blocks Hangman’s boot to clothesline Hangman over the railing! Omega walks around but Hangman comes back with a Buck Shot lariat!

Hangman hurries to put Omega in the ring. He brings Omega up, Powerbomb! High stack cover, TWO! Omega is bleeding and Hangman is in control while we go to break.

NJPW on AXS returns again, and Hangman puts Omega in a corner. Hangman stomps a mudhole into Omega, then goes after that open wound! Red Shoes counts and Hangman backs off at 4. Omega drags himself up, and throws a forearm. Hangman hits back, and they go back and forth. Hangman drops Omega with an elbow, then swings him for a rope guillotine! Cover, TWO, but barely. Fans applaud Omega’s toughness, but Hangman grows annoyed. Hangman adjusts his knee pad and makes sure his leg is okay. Omega stands again and throws hands on Hangman. Hangman hits back, making sure to hit the head wound. Hangman brings Omega around but Omega resists the suplex. Omega tries to suplex Hangman but Hangman resists. Hangman suplexes Omega but Omega slips out, and he throws another haymaker. Hangman hits back again, but Omega comes back to give a punch back.

They go back and forth, Hangman again making sure to hit the head wound. Omega chops Hangman, and fans applaud. Hangman swings but Omega ducks, Omega enziguris but Hangman ducks. Hangman pumphandle deadlifts Omega, for the Fall Away bridge! TWO, and Hangman is surprised. Omega gets himself up and to a corner, but slumps back down against the second rope. Hangman checks his knees, then walks over. He goes after the wound again, but Red Shoes counts. Hangman stops with the wound, but gives Omega a swift chop. Omega walks to another corner, and chops Hangman back. Hangman kicks and whips Omega hard corner to corner. Omega bounces off buckles and falls to the mat. Hangman walks over, and stands Omega up.

Hangman denounces Omega as leader before whipping him even harder. Omega dodges and Hangman hits buckles, and fans rally. Omega stands up, fires up, and runs in at Hangman. He rallies on Hangman, but Hangman boots the discus away to whip Omega to ropes. Omega dodges, and runs for the DDT! Cover, TWO, but Omega doesn’t give up yet. Fans rally again as he brings Hangman up. Fireman’s carry, “You Cannot Escape”, and he hits the rolling senton again. Omega keeps moving and moonsaults! He hits, cover, TWO! Omega drags Hangman up, cross-leg fisherman into the Ushigoroshi! Fans fire up with Omega again, and Omega takes aim. BANG, and run, but Hangman dodges the Trigger! Omega drop toeholds Hangman though, and with Hangman on the ropes, he hits a point-blank V-Trigger!

Omega runs again, but Hangman retaliates with a roaring elbow! Hangman scoops Omega, for a cradling Tombstone piledriver! Cover, TWO!! Omega survives, but Hangman is too tired to be shocked. Hangman sits up first, then drags Omega up. Hangman chops Omega into a corner, then hoists him up to the top rope. He climbs up but Omega fights back. They brawl on the top rope, but Hangman gets the edge. Hangman adjusts, for a SUPER swinging neckbreaker

Cover, ROPEBREAK! Hangman is in disbelief while we go to break.

NJPW on AXS returns one more time as Omega clutches his neck. Hangman stands up, then drags Omega up in position. Omega flails and grabs the ropes again, so Hangman lets him go. Hangman clubs away on Omega, with another elbow to the wound. Hangman throws Omega with a German Suplex, but Omega lands on his feet! Omega V-Trigger outta nowhere!

Omega fires up, brings Hangman up, but Hangman spins out of the One Winged Angel to lift Omega for the Rite. Omega flails, and powerbomb lifts but Hangman slips out. Hangman swings but Omega gets under and around, for the Snap Dragon Suplex!

Hangman goes to the apron, but Omega walks over. Omega brings Hangman through the ropes, BANG, but Hangman slingshots, only for Omega to still hit the V-Trigger! Cover, TWO?! Somehow Hangman survives, but Omega doesn’t fret. Omega drags Hangman up and into double underhook. He lifts, but Hangman resists, so Omega backslides to another V-Trigger. Omega underhooks, for the butterfly driver! Cover, TWO! Omega is surprised but he won’t slow down. He and the fans fire up, he takes aim again, for yet another V-Trigger!

Then the lift, the tuck, and the One Winged Angel!

Cover, Omega wins!

Winner: Omega, by pinfall

The Cleaner finally finishes the Problem Solver, but it took a lot out of Omega, too. Omega keeps the Golden Lovers even with the Bullet Club, though it is still unclear if Omega is in or out. What will it take to settle things so that Bullet Club truly is fine?

Omega speaks in the ring.

“It’s been a long time, hasn’t it?” Omega wanted to speak in just Japanese, but he’s a little too tired for that. So if the fans don’t mind, he’ll go into English for a bit. Next time, if there is a next time, he will definitely speak in 100% Japanese, so look forward to that. But today, wow, Omega’s first time in a main event in front of this crowd. He thanks them for coming. Omega will be back in Night 2, just not the main event, so look forward to that, too. Thanks again for coming, and now, as always, his catchphrase. “Good bye, mwah, and good night. BANG!” Even after such a hard fought main event, the Cleaner is still himself. Will he be successful again in Night 2? Will he use these wins to climb his way back towards a title?

 


 

My Thoughts:

NJPW does great again with only two matches, because those two matches were great. The entire night was about Bullet Club and the “Bullet Club is (Not) Fine” story, and it’s still great. Cody VS Ibushi had lots of story, especially with Cody faking/exaggerating a bad neck to trick Ibushi. Cody wins with a surprise finisher and then another finisher, so it’s not like Ibushi looks weak at the end. This way, Cody stays pace with Omega, who also wins tonight. Omega VS Hangman truly is Hangman’s best match, both for Omega being his opponent and Hangman having improved so much on his own. Hangman is worthy of being a mid-card champion, and will one day be worthy of a world title. Omega is of course still worthy of a world title, but with Okada as the champion, it’s still not clear he’ll get it at Dominion.

My Score: 8.8/10

Coverage

Andrew’s TNA iMPACT! Results & Match Ratings: 10.10.2024

After Hurricane Helene ruined the tapings last week, we get to see how truncated the Bound For Glory build becomes!

Published

on

Last week coverage got skipped because the tapings were delayed due to Hurricane Helene, so they just ran a clip show essentially. I don’t blame them for having to figure out something to pivot because they had a show to fulfill, but I’m not gonna cover a clip show of matches we’ve already seen or whatever.

So now let’s get back up to speed with the murky Knockouts picture since Wendy Choo, Rosemary and Tasha Steelz seem to be picking fights with Sol Ruca, Jordynne Grace and Masha Slamovich, World Title should be Nic versus Joe Hendry, but Kaz could always angle his way into something, and the tag team title picture is some combination of ABC, Hardyz and The System.

Let’s see where everything will go since we kind of lost one week of Bound for Glory hype.

Ratings:

  • Wendy Choo, Rosemary & Tasha Steelz w/Alisha Edwards vs Jordynne Grace, Masha Slamovich & Sol Ruca: Jordynne wins via Juggernaut Driver – ** 1/2
  • Josh Alexander vs Eric Young: Josh wins via Jacknife Pinfall – **
  • Hardy Boyz vs The ABC: No Contest – ***
  • X Division #1 Contender: Laredo Kid vs Jason Hotch w/John Skyler vs Leon Slater: Slater wins via Swanton 450 – *
  • Nic Nemeth & Joe Hendry vs First Cla$$: Nic wins via Fame ASSer – ** 1/4

 

Results:

Wendy Choo, Rosemary & Tasha Steelz w/Alisha Edwards vs Jordynne Grace, Masha Slamovich & Sol Ruca

Wendy and Jordynne starts off and Jordynne just lights her up, rocks her with Forearms, hits the Reverse Suplex, Vader Bomb and looks for the Juggy Driver in 30 seconds, but things start to move in the favor of the Brick City Demons, Jersey Devils even. But when Rosemary and Wendy look for a tandem suplex, Jordynne gets away, tags in Ruca and Ruca Springboards in and goes for some fun high spots. She does slip on her reverse block feeding into the corner, but nothing that looks bad, just an obvious hitch. Ruca hits her little surfboard pose on Rosemary, but the showboating costs her, the heels take a few short cuts and Tasha tags in to try and isolate Ruca. Corner strikes into a Shiranui, but only 2. Camel Clutch from Tasha, but she hasn’t finished anyone with that…so just wait for Ruca to fight up, Tasha drives her back into the heel corner and tags in Wendy. Snapmare into the Neck Twist for two from Choo. Ruca keeps struggling to try and get to her corner, she uses her length to kick off and counter another tandem Suplex attempt from the demons. But Ruca is crawling too slow and Rosemary stops her and start beating on her in the far corner. Ruca with a Sol Snatcher! Rosemary powders and Ruca crawls for the tag.

Tasha collects Rosemary for the heel tag and Masha gets the tag from Ruca, and Tasha gets eaten alive. Masha lays in the savate kicks, catches Tasha, Gutwrench Powerbomb, Russian Death Device on Wendy when she comes in to try and save, but a thumb to the eyes has Masha retreat to her corner, Jordynne blind tags, Juggernaut Driver on Tasha, faces win but there’s some tension with Masha and Jordynne.

Cool name wasted on Josh and his Jabroni squad. I want to like it but this group is the typical High School group project partners of one person who carries all the weight and two useless idiots. 

Nic comes out to talk, and coming off a mid 6 person match and a lame backstage segment, I really hope this goes somewhere. Nic says his name, so he appears, and Joe comes out for the promo in the ring spot. My assumption is that some heel will crash the party to help fill the next 3 or 4 weeks before Bound for Glory, but I just don’t want this to languish. After a some circle jerk, Hendry does bring into question the JBL situation, and Nic just kind of hand waves it and says he’s the threat not JBL. Oh First Cla$$ interrupt the promo, I didn’t have them on my BINGO card, but since KC Navarro took Swann’s place, they have been a ton more fun. 

AJ tries to take credit for Hendry’s ascent, Hendry chides him a little by a little medley of the classics and AJ redirects his attention to Nic after getting a little worked up. KC and AJ are fantastic. Tag match is made, Santino appears, calls them FIST CLASH and its happening tonight!

Josh Alexander vs Eric Young

Things start off basic, Collar and Elbow tie up, but Josh gets the best of things, throws EY around a little but nothing really high impact hits until EY manages a nice Dropkick to stifle Josh’s control. Josh powders, EY collects him, but Josh used the downtime to recover and starts laying into EY again. Strong Irish Whip, Flair corner bump from EY but Josh baits EY and connects with a big strike that drops EY on his ass for the Low Crossbody Dive. We move to terrible picture in picture while EY is just getting walloped on the apron. Methodic slow offense for Josh, even 10 Count Corner Punches, EY tries to catch him with a Back Elbow but Josh pulls him into the turnbuckle to stop any comeback from happening while we’re in picture in picture.

Finally out of PiP, and Josh is still in control working limbs and keeping him in the corner eating punches. EY ducks a punch, fires back, Irish Whip into a bounce out Northern Lights Suplex Hold for two from EY! Getting back to his feet, Josh snaps an Uppercut, then runs EY over with a Big Boot and grounds EY with the ole Headlock. EY counters with the Jawbreaker and tries to fire, connects with a few big lariats, Discus Lariat, Spicolli Driver attempt but Josh slips it, tries to run the ropes and eats a Power Slam from EY! Piledriver call, but Josh slips behind and goes for the Kurt Angle Germans, EY fights off the third, hits the Spicolli Driver for two! Macho Elbow attempt but the two jabronis of Josh’s group come out, distract the ref, crotch EY and Josh slowly climbs the corner with arrogance but EY counters him, drops him, connects on the Macho Elbow, but only for two! German Suplex from EY, Piledriver set up, but the jabronis interfere again, numbers game gives Josh the Jacknife Pinfall win.

Nerd squad beats down EY, they pan to a backstage shot of Maclin being handcuffed and taken out. Josh goes for the chair around the ankle shatter it heel thing, who cares. I have no interest in any of this. Josh’s heel turn has been forgettable aside from his new music, his two jabronis are worthless and this EY and Maclin pairing is being wasted on this filler imbecile angle. 

So Santana comes out to talk and call out Moose, its a fairly basic and boring back and forth. Santana does get a good line calling Santana a Baby Boy Bitch, but then The System jumps Santana. ABC and the Hard Boys make the save, so Santino comes out to officially make Moose vs Santana a BFG match and kicks off the tag team match right now! 

Hardy Boyz vs The ABC

Matt and Chris Bey start off, simple Collar & Elbow into a corner, clean break, Bey with an eventual Headlock Takeover, but nothing super interesting, Matt counters and goes into his own Headlock. Matt eats a Dropkick from Bey after a Shoulder Tackle, so we get both teams tagging out in the babyface nice Japanese pro wrestling way. Drop Toe Hold from Ace into a La Magistral for a quick count and then an Arm Drag keeps Ace in control. Jeff eventually gets his own Wringer and Arm Drag into four Neckbreakers, Wrecking Ball Dropkick and tags in Matt. Poetry in Motion the classic way! Quick tag back to Jeff, Assisted Facebuster from the Hardyz for another near fall, and Jeff is keeping Ace on the ground. Ace fights up, but Jeff tries to cut him off a few times, but Ace kicks out of Jeff’s grab and tags in Bey. Corner Splash, Enzuigiri into a Missile Dropkick for 2. Hardy with a Jawbreaker into the Mule Kick to tag out to Matt. Bey slips Matt’s move, double Enzuigiri and now ABC are keeping Matt isolated.

After a little more offense, Matt manages a counter, simultaneous tags and Jeff and Ace are legal. Russian Leg Sweep from Jeff into his Leg Drop Prawn Hold for 2. Bey eats a Plot Twist, but The System runs out to attack everyone.

So I guess we really are getting the triple threat that I wanted a few weeks ago. Solid match, but I called that in September, including it being a Full Metal Mayhem match!

X Division #1 Contender: Laredo Kid vs Jason Hotch w/John Skyler vs Leon Slater 

Indie stupid start of dumb stuff a quick cover and Triplicate Simultaneous Dropkick. I really hate that spot…I also really don’t care for any of these guys. Laredo is just a body but useless when it comes to a real threat, Leon Slater is fun but too new and inconsistent, and Hotch I probably like the most, but he’s held back by the fact The Good Hands are a joke. I also dislike Laredo doing all of the Eddie Guerrero stuff…that doesn’t make me care about him it makes me think about Eddie. So its just stupid.

Roundhouse Kick from Laredo misses, Enzuigiri from Hotch sends Laredo to powder, Slater with a Handspring Back Elbow to wipe out Hotch, Slater goes to the top for the Swanton 450 and wins. A very quick, spotfest that means nothing. Sure Slater gets a title shot next week, but I’m not invested, don’t care and have no faith he’ll actually win.

Nic Nemeth & Joe Hendry vs First Cla$$

First Class attacks Hendry during his entrance promo, Nemeth hits the ring to even the odds, First Class is rocked outside and the faces stand tall as the referee tries to get control and we head to PiP. There’s like 5 minutes left in the show and you need to cut to a commercial? Grow up…seriously time your garbage better.

Offense is basic, KC gets the best for Nic, tags in AJ and he just literally stands on Nic and uses the size advantage. I’m glad we’re not missing anything that matters, but seriously, who cuts to commercial in the last 10 minutes of the show? Back to a real picture, AJ hits a Senton for 2 and then AJ mocks Hendry’s turn around as Nic has been isolated since the picture in picture. Nic finally fires out of the corner with punches and a few kicks but AJ won’t let go. Whips him into his own corner and knocks KC off the apron. Nic tries to dive to Hendry, AJ catches him but eats a DDT, Nic tags in Hendry, KC tries to do something after recovering but eats the Sack of Shit, Kip Up, and Hendry tries to lift AJ but can’t get him up at first. Superkick from Nic, Hendry gets AJ up for the Attitude Adjustment and Hendry calls for the Standing Ovation…double goozle, but Hendry pulls off a Danger Zone and Nic laughs. Hendry allows Nic to tag in, two Superkicks send AJ out but KC blind tags, 305 from KC, goes for the Blessing in Disguise bout eats a Super Kick, and Nemeth hits the Standing Ovation and does the turn to Hendry, Fame ASSer ends the match.

 

Overall Score: 4.5/10

This episode definitely felt rushed. Over use of Santino, Jordynne showing up a few times and Nic and Joe trading showboat barbs in a rather meaningless main event. A filler X Division match with a bunch of people with no story, probably just leads to Bailey defending and Wentz officially claiming his rematch for Bound For Glory. Northern Armoury again, is a cool name, but with a bunch of dweebs. Also as much as I wanted to see Masha face Jordynne so she can get her first win and really spark a run…just fast tracking passed Rosemary added to the episode seeming rushed.

Stuff happens, natural disasters cause problems, I get it. But this episode definitely suffered from just feeling like far too much odd exposition and filler content to make me count minutes left in the episode.

If you don’t watch TNA weekly, this was probably alright…but I’m definitely not feeling what they put together.

PLAY BY PLAY

Backstage interview with Billie Starkz.

Lexy Nair is very excited, Minion 400,237 & 3/4ths not so much, about the Athena championship celebration. It will be the greatest moment in life! Lexy runs through the checklist. They got the kittens? Billie says check. They got the choreographed dancers and their routine with the flashing lights? That was Lexy’s job, not Billie’s. Okay, okay, worry about that later. What about the green Skittles? Billie doesn’t think those exist anymore. Lexy says no, they can get them at like CVS or something. Athena stumbles in, clutching a steel chain and looking over her shoulder. She bumps into the others and says hey there!

So, uh, Lexy, Athena got you this. What? Yeah, Athena handcuffs Lexy with one end of the chain, and claims it is a friendship bracelet. See, Athena saw the playback of last week’s episode, and Abadon got a little too close for comfort. Too close to Lexy, that is! They cannot let Abadon take Athena’s precious, beautiful Bestie! Lexy is too important, because she’s planning the party! Billie gets fed up! Lexy’s important, Lexy important, but what about Billie?! Athena tells Billie to calm down! Lexy is a beautiful TV personality, the best one in the world! She’s dainty, fragile, and gorgeous. Billie is a wrestler, a former champion, but also a former MIT Graduate. Billie can defend herself.

But Lexy cannot, so this is for her protection. They cannot allow Lil’ “Abandon All Hope” Abadon get Lexy! Athena cuffs herself with the chain so now she and Lexy are connected. This is them for life! The rest of their life! Forever Champion, Forever Bestie, and the Forever Minion 400,237 & 3/4ths! But most importantly… did they get JaRule? OH, yes, well, funny story. Billie interrupts and says she’s done, bye. Billie storms off, and Lexy says her people are talking with his people. Or, well, Athena’s people, their people, are talking with- Lady Frost walks in, and says this is so funny. Athena is TERRIFIED of Abadon.

N-No! Yes. Seeing Athena like this, it’s hilarious. No, what’s hilarious is that Frost LOST to Athena, yet has the audacity to come up here and get in Athena’s face while she is planning the party to celebrate becoming the longest-reigning champion in ALL of ROH history! And well, maybe Frosty is scared! Lil’ Miss Popsicle couldn’t even last 10 minutes with Athena. Athena did it once, she can do it again. Frost throws off the jacket to show she’s in ring gear. If Athena wants another 10 minutes, then she’s got it. Frost leaves, and Athena realizes she just booked herself for a match. Athena storms off, and ends up dragging Lexy along.

Will The Fallen Goddess just admit she’s afraid of the Living Dead Girl so that she can face her fears? Or will Frost freeze Athena’s reign?

 

NJPW Strong Openweight Open Challenge: Gabe Kidd VS Anthony Henry w/ BEEF!

The Mad Man of the Bullet Club War Dogs put out the challenge to anyone in ROH who wanted a fight, and it was the Saint of Augusta that accepted. Will this Workhorsemen bring home some gold? Or will he not be #WarReady like Gabe Kidd?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see just who is NJPW Strong!

The bell rings and Henry runs up to DROPKICK Gabe! Gabe bails out, Henry pursues, and he runs in around the way! CALF KICK against railing! The fans fire up, as does Beef, and Henry puts Gabe in! Henry climbs, leaps, but Gabe dodges. Gabe kicks low, suplexes, but Henry slips free. Henry waistlocks, Gabe bucks the O’Conner, but Henry dodges Gabe to fire off strikes. Gabe UPPERCUTS, then suplexes! Henry lands out, bobs ‘n’ weaves, them CHOPS! Gabe swings but Henry blocks to spin Gabe, and ROCK him! Gabe CHOPS! Henry PELES! Henry waistlocks to GERMAN SUPLEX! Bridging cover, TWO!

The fans fire up and Beef cheers Henry on. Henry climbs, but Gabe runs up! Henry leaps over, KNEES Gabe, then reels him in. TORNADO- NO, Gabe stops the DDT, puts him on ropes, and SHOVES him down hard! Henry falls to the apron then floor and Beef checks on him. The fans rally for Henry but Gabe storms out after him. Beef backs off but he still cheers Henry. Gabe mocks Beef, whips Henry hard into railing, then talks smack on Beef. The fans rally for Beef but Gabe goes back to Henry. The ring count climbs but Gabe CHOPS Henry! Gabe puts Henry in at 7 of 20, then storms past Beef. Gabe grabs a mic?!

Gabe says, “Oi, listen up! You bunch of smelly little tramps!” Gabe stomps Henry, then says he has a message for all the fans! Gabe stomps away on Henry and says he has a message for all the “boys in the back.” None of them can touch him! Gabe stomps Henry more, and says he is the one! He’s the best! He’s the MADDEST! The fans boo but Gabe puts Henry in a corner. Gabe CHOPS, but Henry pie faces him! Gabe CHOPS again, Henry eggs him on! Gabe CHOPS, then eggs Henry on. Henry KICKS! Gabe seethes, and he CHOPS Henry! The fans chant “USA! USA!” but Gabe eats it up. Henry KCIKS, Gabe CHOPS, repeat!

The fans fire up as they now trade forearms! Henry gets the edge, but Gabe BITES Henry on the forehead! The ref reprimands, Beef protests, but Gabe lets off at 4. Gabe flexes but the fans boo. Gabe says he told us, he’s a MAD MAN! But Henry CHOPS the Mad Man again and again and again! Gabe sits down, Henry KICKS away on him! Henry fires off CHOP after CHOP again, then fires up! The fans are with Henry, but Gabe BITES him again! And UPPERCUTS! Scoop and SLAM! Gabe snarls, goes outside, and he looks for stuff under the ring. Beef puts the skirt down and says, “The hell you think you’re doing?!”

Beef says it’s a championship match, and Henry is his cousin! He wants Gabe to have a fair fight! Gabe DECKS Beef! So Henry DIVES onto Gabe!! Henry puts Gabe in the ring, drags him up, fires off Muay Thai knees, but Gabe pushes him back. Henry BOOTS back, skins the cat, and DIVING DOUBLE STOMPS Gabe while he’s standing! The fans fire up and Henry runs corner to corner! METEORA! TORNADO DDT, float over, and facelock! Suplex, SHEER DROP BRAINBUSTER!! Cover, TWO!! Gabe survives, but Beef shouts, “C’MON, COUSIN!” Henry aims, Gabe eggs him on! BUZZSAW! Cover, TWO!! Gabe survives and Beef is frustrated for Henry!

Beef says Henry needs to put it to bed! Henry goes to a corner, the fans rally up, and Henry climbs the corner! But Gabe DOUBLE CHOPS him first! Gabe climbs up, fires hands, but Henry fires back! Henry HEADBUTTS, and Gabe drops back! Gabe UPPERCUTS, suplexes, SUPER BRAINBUSTER!! And now, a wrench and SAIDO!! Cover, TWO!??! Gabe is surprised but the fans are all fired up! Beef rallies the fans for Henry, but Gabe reels him in! Henry fights Gabe’s lift, and the forearms fly! Gabe CHOPS, ROCKS, but Henry SLAPS, SLAPS, and SLAPS!! COMEBACKER from Gabe!! Cover, TWO!!

Henry rises, but Gabe gut wrenches! Henry kicks and kicks, but Gabe still PILEDRIVERS!! Cover, Gabe wins!

Winner: Gabe Kidd, by pinfall (still NJPW Strong Openweight Champion)

Henry put up a fight, but it was not enough to dethrone this War Dog. Will Gabe Kidd be unstoppable no matter where he fights?

 

Brandon Cutler makes his way to the ring.

“Oh~ Toledooo~. You are all so very welcome for these ROH Wrestling nights, presented to you by our EVPs, Matthew & Nicholas!” The fans boo, but Cutler says you don’t boo the Young Bucks! You should worship the ground they walk on! They are pioneers, trailblazers, and most importantly, the current AEW World Tag Team Champions. And this Saturday at WrestleDream, the entire Elite will successfully defend their titles. So in that spirit, Brandon Cutler is calling out any and all ROH champions, past or present! Anyone who has been or is currently a champion, answer the call! What kind of men do they have in ROH?

IT’S KATSUYORI SHIBATA! The former ROH Pure Champion is in Toledo ahead of facing Jack Perry for the TNT Championship, will Cutler be just a tune-up for The Wrestler?

Brandon Cutler VS Katsuyori Shibata!

Cutler says okay, he knows Shibata wants to get his “grubby mitts” on him, but he should remember about the Code of Honor. Shibata can’t touch Cutler until they shake hands. Isn’t that right, ref? The ref confirms. Shibata shakes hands, but Cutler kicks low! The bell rings and Cutler CLUBS Shibata. Cutler CHOPS, but Shibata doesn’t budge! Cutler CHOPS again, but still nothing! Cutler CHOPS and CHOPS, but Shibata CHOPS! Cutler felt that through his tiger stripe vest, and Shibata CHOPS him again! Cutler ends up in a corner, Shibata opens the vest, and CHOPS bare skin! Cutler sputters, but Shibata CHOPS again!

The fans “WOO~” again and again as Shibata fires off more CHOPS! Cutler scrambles to another corner, but Shibata follows him. Shibata CHOPS again! And again! Cutler drops to his knees, clutching his stinging chest! The fans fire up as Shibata drags Cutler up, waistlocks, but Cutler fights the lift. Cutler grabs ropes, then he ELBOWS Shibata! Cutler goes up and out and springboards in to FLYING FOREARM! Maybe not phenomenal but Cutler is already feeling cocky. Cutler pops ‘n’ locks and DABS before the ELBOW DROP! Cover, TWO! Cutler drags Shibata up, whips, but Shibata reverses!

Shibata runs up, but Cutler slips out! Cutler GAMANGIRIS, then goes up! Shibata gest under the jump, to RUNNING CHOP! Cutler wobbles, Shibata brings him around to whip and BOOT! The fans fire up as Shibata fires forearms in the corner! The ref counts, Shibata lets off to go corner to corner! HYDRAULIC DROPKICK! The fans fire up, Shibata brings Cutler up, HALF HATCH! Cutler flounders, Shibata brings him around, but Cutler swings! But into the SLEEPER! Cutler is already red in the face, Shibata sits him down, and runs for the PENALTY KICK! Cover, Shibata wins!

Winner: Katsuyori Shibata, by pinfall

The Young Bucks’ buddy didn’t do so well, and now Shibata is rolling into WrestleDream. Will The Wrestler make The Scapegoat into the sacrifice for AEW’s greater good?

 

Brian Cage speaks.

“I’m a machine every which way you slice it. I train like a machine, I eat like a machine, I plan, prep and attack like a machine. And I’ve been programmed with only one thing, and that’s tunnel vision on becoming the best professional wrestler on this planet. And with that, becoming one of the best champions this sport has ever seen! And Atlantis Jr, you egg-sucking piece of gutter trash, you don’t even go here! You’re holding something that technically should never have even belonged to you, and that don’t sit right with me. Nuh-uh, not today! Not anymore! Not up in here!

“And at WrestleDream, in Zero Hour, in 48 hours, Brian Cage, ‘The Machine’ Brian Cage, the NEXT ROH TV Champion Brian Cage, is gonna correct that and claim my prize. Who betta?” The Swolverine has spoken, but can he dethrone the second generation CMLL star? Or will Atlantis Jr. be the answer to #WhoBetta?

 

Shane Taylor Promotions VS The Infantry w/ Trish Adora!

Big Bad Shaney T. wants his team to take over ROH, so he and #TAIGASTYLE are stepping into tag team competition. Will they be one step closer to total domination? Or can Shawn Dean & Carlie Bravo march up the ranks?

The teams sort out and Shane himself starts against Bravo. Bravo fires Toledo up, “OORAH~!” “OORAH~!” Shane and Bravo circle, tie up, and Shane powers Bravo into a corner. The ref counts the break, Shane lets off but he’s in Bravo’s face. Bravo pushes Shane, the two reset and circle again. The fans rally, the two tie up again, and Bravo wrenches an arm. Bravo headlocks, but Shane powers up and out. Shane RUNS Bravo over, then taunts him. Shane says this is The Land! HE runs this! But Bravo kips up, brushes himself off, then dodges to ROCK Shane! Bravo talks some smack, but Shane grabs him by the neck!

Shane shoves Bravo, then pops him up, but Bravo slips away to DROPKICK! Bravo RAMS Shane into the corner, Dean ENZIGIRIS, then tags in. The Infantry double whips but Shane blocks! And he blocks again! Bravo fires off hands! Dean joins in, the fans fire up and Infantry double whips. They DOUBLE SHOULDER TACKLE, and the fans fire up! Dean fires hands on Shane to keep him on the ropes, literally. Dean whips, Shane reverses to JAB! Dean drops to a knee, Shane brings him around, and Shane TOSSES Dean to the corner. Tag to Lee and Lee drags Dean up to run up, but Dean arm-drags! And arm-drags again!

Dean grinds the armlock, but Shane barks at Adora so Bravo storms up to bark back. The ref tells them both to stop, and this arguing keeps Bravo from taking the tag! Lee wrenches and WRINGS Dean out! Shane taunts Bravo over it, and Lee drags Dean up. Lee fires knees into Dean, then whips him into the STP corner. Lee runs up to LARIAT, then he tags Shane. Shane CHOPS Dean, and then he mock, “OORAH!” Dean ROCKS him for it! But then Shane DECKS Dean for it! Shane and Bravo argue again, and Lee sneaks a CHOKE. Shane storms over to dig boots into Dean. The ref counts, Shane lets off, and Lee sneaks some hair pulling!

Shane runs up on Bravo, Bravo steps back and says they aren’t playing that. But Lee is pulling Dean back, which Adora points out. Shane runs up to KNEE Dean down! Shane scoops Dean to SLAM him, then he lines up a LEG DROP! Cover, TWO! Shane makes sure Bravo understands it was that close. Bravo and Shane keep talking trash, but Adora rallies Toledo. Shane puts Dean in the corner, tags Lee, but Dean fires hands on everyone! Shane ROCKS Dean, Lee steps in for Shane to whip. But Dean BOOTS Lee away! Shane runs up but Dean DUMPS him out! The fans fire up, Dean dodges Lee to hot tag Bravo!

The fans fire up as Bad News & Tattoos rallies on Taiga Style! Bravo eggs Lee on, then dodges Lee! Bravo blocks a kick, slips around, JUMPING NECKBREAKER! The fans fire up with Bravo, and he brings Lee around. Bravo whips, Lee reverses, but Bravo ducks the boot, for the CARLIE CROSSOVER! Cover, TWO!! Lee stays in this but Bravo stays focused. Bravo pounds the mat, the fans rally up, and Bravo clinches. But Shane storms in to CLOBBER Bravo! Dean storms in to ROCK Shane! The Infantry regroup, dodge Shane, and they fire off Cap & Bucky Combo! DOUBLE ROLLING ELBOW! They kick Shane out, and then Bravo kicks Lee.

Dean kicks Lee, Bravo hits a DDT! The fans fire up as Bravo puts Lee in the drop zone, but Shane anchors Dean! Bravo BOOTS Shane, but Lee shoves Bravo into Dean! O’Conner BRIDGE, STP wins!

Winner: Shane Taylor Promotions, by pinfall

Bravo can’t believe it! Two matches in a row, they have lost! They got outmaneuvered here against Shane Taylor Promotions, and now they’re falling down the ranks! Will Dean & Bravo just have to go back to the drawing board to figure out a way to win? Shane tells them one day, they will understand. Will he and Lee show that when they rumble with the tag team champions?

 

The Dark Order speaks.

Evil Uno says, “Finally! Finally! Dark Order is on a roll! Evil Uno, big singles win. John Silver, big singles win. Alex Reynolds, John Silver, big tag team win. Well it’s time for Dark Order to get back to their bread ‘n’ butter, the Trios Division! Because that is when-” The Iron Savages interrupt! Jacked Jameson says hold on, Dark Order, hold on. They were just passing by, sippin’ sauce, and were about to hit the gym to work off those double chunk chocolate cookies, and they couldn’t help but overhear Dark Order talking about the tag win over Jameson & Beefcake Boulder. Congratulations! Jameson’s first ROH match, and they weren’t ready!

Bulk Bronson was not cleared, it was a last minute change, and yet they went out there! If Bronson was 100% and they were all ready, Dark Order would’ve lost! Boulder says damn well that in 2v2, anything could happen, it doesn’t mean anything! And in 3v3, you got NO shot! Bronson almost chokes on sauce, but he says he has an idea! Okay, buddy, breathe. Bronson says next time, Dark Order VS Iron Savages, it’ll be a TRIOS MATCH! Then they and the whole world finds out that The Iron Savages are “The t*ts!” Sip on that, chumps! Silver says if they want their asses kicked, he’ll go ahead and kick all their asses!

Uno has Silver stand down, and Reynolds says Iron Savages wanna come in here with the fun and games, fine. But Dark Order has been where they’ve been, and it got them nowhere! “Playtime’s over, boys! Dark Order’s war ready. And the next time we step in the ring, we’re gonna kick your ass!” Boulder says his ass is too big to be kicked, so sip on THAT! The Savages head out, and this is getting tense. Who wins this big Six Man Tag to then chase down Dustin Rhodes & The Von Erichs?

 

ROH Women’s World Television Championship: Red Velvet VS Diamante!

Past battles in the ring and their war of words these past few weeks have led to this! The Chef is looking to cook, will she serve another L? Or will the Cuban Diamond finally have some gold in ROH?

Velvet stomps a mudhole, lets off as the ref counts, but then she digs her boot in! Velvet does the splits, blows a kiss, and lets off as the ref counts again.

Velvet climbs up, but Diamante YANKS her down! Velvet hits buckles then the mat! The fans are torn but Diamante stomps Velvet.

Velvet runs up, but into an OVERHEAD SUPLEX! Velvet crashes into buckles, and Diamante runs in, HYDRAULIC DROPKICK! Cover, TWO! Velvet survives but Diamante stays focused. Diamante turns Velvet over, reels her into the waistlock, and the fans rally up. Velvet fights, reaches out, and has the ROPEBREAK! The ref counts, Diamante CLUBS Velvet as she lets off. Diamante brings Velvet around, puts her through ropes, then avoids the counter shoulder! Diamante turns Velvet for a HOTSHOT NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Velvet survives again and the fans rally up. Diamante is frustrated but she CLUBS away on Velvet.

Diamante drags Velvet around, the fans rally more, and Diamante CLUBS away on Velvet with crossface forearms! Diamante then reels Velvet in, for a SAIDO!

Diamante drags Velvet up but Velvet fires hands. Diamante knees low, whips, but Velvet wheelbarrows. Diamante stops that to GERMAN SUPLEX!

The Infantry regroups backstage.

Carlie Bravo “ain’t gonna hold you,” he feels something is off. Shawn Dean tells Bravo about the game plan. What was going on? All the studying! Everything they’re doing! They can’t have this! But they’re feeling off! But then in steps Shane Taylor Promotions! Shane asks what Bravo means by “off?” How many times do they have to keep going through this?! How many times do they have to get their asses kicked until they get it?! Infantry is one of the most impressive tag teams he’s ever seen, and yet they keep going this over and over.

Shane has seen them beat world champions. Shane has seem them beat the best tag teams ROH has to offer! And it’s gotten The Infantry NOWHERE. They are dead set on proving to these people that they can wrestle. But Shane needs them to show the people that they can RUMBLE. And for the last time, Shane will ask them both, or rather, all three of them, when are they going to stop being “good soldiers?” And specifically to Miss Adora, Shane hasn’t forgotten their conversation, either. And he is a man of their word.

STP heads out, Bravo asks what that means, but Adora says it’s nothing. But Dean says Shane is saying something. Can The Infantry refocus and finally have their moment?

Bryan endures, even as Kenta digs an elbow in. Bryan rolls but Kenta just makes it a top wristlock. Bryan headscissors, Kenta moves around, and pops free to have the headlock, then the armlock! Kenta grinds with a double wristlock, but Bryan shifts to get a ghost pin! TWO, and Kenta keeps the arm. Kenta drops knees right on the elbow, and does it again, and again! Kenta digs his knee in, but the fans rally as Bryan endures. Bryan fights up, Kenta snapmares him back down, and drops more knees on that elbow! Kenta goes to the apron, to slingshot and scuff Bryan!

ROH World Championship Proving Ground: Mark Briscoe VS Josh Woods w/ The Premier Athletes!

Moving from past to present, The Sussex County Chicken is now going to defend the ROH World Championship at WrestleDream against Chris Jericho. However, before then, he meets The Technical Beast on the Proving Ground. And as such, “Smart” Mark Sterling takes over introductions to say that The Premier Athletes are getting sick and tired of saying they suck. “Lemme tell you who sucks! The people of Toledo suck! The Conglomeration sucks! Orange Cassidy sucks! Kyle O’Reilly sucks! Ishii sucks! And Mark Briscoe SUCKS!” The fans boo Sterling but he says here is one last chance to make this right.

When they say “Athletes,” you all say, “Rule.” Hands in, boys. Ohh… “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Sterling is again furious but he’s clearly not smart enough to see he always sets his team up for that one. But now, “Reach for the sky, boys!” Mark makes his way to the ring, and while Cassidy & Kyle conquered Nese & Daivari, time to see if the Chicken can conquer the Beast. WAIT, Woods attacks first, no waiting on Code of Honor or anything! The bell rings, Woods fires off knees, then he TOSSES Mark out! The fans boo but we’re on the clock, 10 minutes or less wins Woods a title shot! Woods ROCKS Mark, then SWINGS him into railing!

The fans boo as hard as they can, but Woods puts Mark back in the ring. Woods soaks up the heat, but he has to avoid a backhand! Woods says he’s too smart, but then Mark gets him with a REDNECK KUNG-FU UPPERCUT! The fans fire up as Mark builds speed, and Mark WRECKS Woods with that “spicy dropkick.” Mark RKF UPPERCUTS again! And then CHOPS! Mark tosses a chair into the ring, fires off hands on Woods, and then Mark gets in the ring. The fans fire up as Mark sets the chair up. Mark builds speed, Sterling freaks out, but the Chicken FLIES! Down goes Woods and the fans high-five with Briscoe!

Mark Briscoe gives a young fan his Conglomeration T-shirt, but now Sterling barks at him! Briscoe backs Sterling off, the fans cheer on “DEM BOYS! DEM BOYS!” Mark stands Woods up to ROCK him! Mark puts Woods in, storms up and ROCKS him! Woods ROCKS Mark back! The forearms fly, then Mark ducks one to CHOP! Mark ROCKS Woods, CHOPS him, then ROCKS him again. Mark whips, Woods reverses, but Mark CLOBBERS him! Woods goes to a corner, Mark runs up to LARIAT! Mark reels Woods in to EXPLODER! Cover, ONE!! Mark is surprised by that, but he runs up to RKF UPPERCUT!

Mark fireman’s carries, but Woods CLAWS eyes! Woods waistlocks, goes to the corner, CHAOS- NO, Mark fights the suplex and breaks the waistlock to PELE! Fireman’s carry, and ROLLING DEATH VALLEY! The fans fire up and Mark climbs! FROGGY- NO! ARMBAR!! Woods has Mark caught! Mark fights around, even bites at Woods’ leg! Mark has the ROPEBREAK! Woods lets go to argue with the ref, but that just lets Sterling PULL on Mark’s arm! The fans boo, but Sterling lets go before he gets caught. Woods drags Mark back in, and he stomps away on the bad arm! Woods says, “Athletes!” Toledo says, “SUCKS!”

Woods fires more shots on Mark, then hammerlocks the arm to scoop and SLAM! Mark writhes, Woods covers, TWO! Woods is annoyed but he grabs the bad arm to turn Mark over. Woods digs his knee into the shoulder, pulls on the arm, but the fans chant it themselves, “ATHLETES SUCK! ATHLETES SUCK!” Mark fights, has the ROPEBREAK, and Woods lets go at 4. Woods stands Mark up to ROCK him! And UPPERCUT the arm! Woods hammerlocks the arm again, scoops again, but Mark slips free! Mark fires forearms and elbows, then kicks, kicks and kicks! Mark puts Woods in a corner with those kicks!

Woods shoves Mark back, runs up, but into a drop toehold! Mark gets moving, he goes up a corner, and he MISSILE DROPKICKS! Woods tumbles away to the corner! The fans fire up, Mark runs in, SHOTGUN BOOT! Woods staggers, Mark fires up again, and the fans rally behind him. But Woods FLAPJACK HOTSHOTS Mark on ropes! Woods puts Mark in a corner to fire knee after knee! Woods puts Mark up, then climbs up. Woods UPPERCUTS the bad arm, UPPERCUTS it again, and then SUPER ARM-DRAGS! Cover, TWO!! Mark gets free, but the ARMBAR is back! Mark hurries to stack! TWO!!

Woods lets Mark go in time, but Mark kicks low! Underhooks, lift, and- NO, the bad arm stops Mark! Woods runs up to SHINING WIZARD! Knuckle lock, straight arm lever, and Woods has Mark back up top! Hammerlock, clinch, but Mark BITES Woods! Mark fires forearms, then HEADBUTT after HEADBUTT! Mark shouts and HEADBUTTS again! Woods falls, Sterling freaks out, FROGGY-BOW!! Cover, Mark wins!!

Winner: Mark Briscoe, by pinfall (denies Josh Woods a title match)

Woods kicks out at 3.1 but that’s not soon enough! But with all this damage Woods did to the Chicken’s wing, will it be that much easier for Chris Jericho to go from Ocho to Nueve? Or will nothing stop the legacy of The Briscoes in ROH?
