PLAY BY PLAY

Witness the Death Before Dishonor aftermath!

Jay Lethal defended his ROH World Championship successfully against Will Ospreay. But then the red balloons signaled doom! The Kingdom would jump both Lethal and Ospreay, and would even withstand The Octopus, Jonathan Gresham, coming to the rescue. Taven would finish the job, and reveal his newly shaved head, while also revealing HIS ROH World Championship belt! Taven would throw down Lethal’s belt, because “IIIII’M Matt Taven, the REAL Ring of Honor World Champion!” Will The Kingdom truly reign over all? Or will The Franchise Player have something to say about this?

 

The Kingdom is here!

Fans are NOT happy to see them. Matt Taven, TK O’Ryan and Vinnie Marseglia take the ring and move both referee and ring announcer aside so that they can go through with their ceremony. “Ladies and gentlemen, what is about to happen in this ring should have happened a long, long time ago.” TK makes sure neither ref nor announce moves as he speaks on the Kingdom Conspiracy. ROH has tried to silence them for far too long, but now the world will hear them out. Vinnie makes the referee hold their belt, and Vinnie takes the mic. “The conspiracy is dead.” TK makes the announcer officially say their message.

“This man has held the CMLL Historic NWA Welterweight Championship, the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Championship. He was the winner of the ROH Top Prospect Tournament. He held the ROH World Television Championship, the ROH World Tag Team Championship, two times he held the ROH World Six Man Tag Team Championship.” Taven was the Honor Royale winner, and has sold out Sumo Hall, Arena Mexico, ECW Arena, Hammerstein Ballroom and is the “reason that ROH and NJPW sold out Madison Square Garden.” Most of those are exaggerations… But most of all, TK bullies the ring announcer into reading the very last thing. “He is your ROH World Champion, THE Matt Taven.” That is factually inaccurate, but the Kingdom insists it is truth.

Taven takes the belt from the referee, and holds it up high as TK and Vinnie force the referee to raise his hand in victory. The Kingdom believe their leader to be the newest ROH WHC, but they’re the only ones. When will Taven be the actual ROH Grand Slam Champion he wishes to be?

 

The Top Prospect Tournament is OVER!

But not because we have a winner, but because Jeff Cobb says so! Cobb came to Death Before Dishonor to confront Punishment Martinez, but Martinez didn’t take him seriously. Which is why he SMACKED Cobb in the back with a chair! To no affect! Cobb glared at Martinez, then reeled him in for a slam! Cobb wants the ROH World Television Championship, when and where will he get it?

 

Kenny King VS Chase Owens!

The K I N G of Sin City has been on a Bullet Club hunting spree. First, he beat The Villain at his own game, then used those same tricks to solve the Problem Solver. But now, making a Ring of Honor Television debut, it’s the Crown Jewel of New Japan! Can Chase stop Kenny’s streak at two? Or will Kenny keep getting the better of the Bullet Club?

Kenny and Chase uphold the Code of Honor and the bell rings. Kenny and Chase circle and tie up. Chase gets a wristlock, but Kenny reverses to a hammerlock. Chase reverses to a fireman’s carry takedown, and then shifts to an armlock. Kenny gets up but Chase wrenches to a hammerlock. Kenny works his way out with a spin and Japanese arm-drags Chase, followed by an standard arm-drag. He has Chase in the armlock now, but Chase is up and whips. Kenny reverses but Chase blocks the hip toss into an arm-drag. Chase aims but Kenny avoids the superkick. Kenny jumps but Chase deflects the dropkick. Kenny handsprings and fans applaud this stand-off. The King swags about but Chase shrugs it off. Chase and Kenny circle and tie up, and Kenny gets a headlock.

Chase powers out but Kenny runs him over. Kenny breaks it down with his dance, then things speed up. Chase hurdles but dodges the punch to put Kenny on the apron. Kenny forearms back but Chase dropkcisk hsi feet out. Chase builds speed for a big wrecking ball dropkick! Fans fire up for the Crown Jewel despite Kenny being their hometown boy. Chase whips Kenny but Kenny spins through to rock him with a right! Kenny kicks but Chase ducks and gets in the ring. Chase knees Kenny’s shoulder thrust to then drag him out for a draping complete shot! Cover, TWO! Chase is in control while we go to break.

ROH returns as Kenny punches and kicks Chase off. Kenny whips but Chase reverses into a chin-check then mule kicks before hitting the running swing neckbreaker! Chase covers, TWO, but he keeps on Kenny with a fireman’s carry. Kenny fights his way out to then throw jabs. He bobs ‘n’ weaves with Chase to rock him with a right. Kenny whips and drops Chase with a spinning heel kick! Chase gets to the apron and swings back, but Kenny counters with the Eddy Gordo kick. Chase tumbles down and Kenny builds speed to FLY! Kenny hits the twisting plancha and Vegas fires up. Kenny gets Chase up and in then climbs up top. He leaps for the crossbody! Cover, TWO! Kenny grinds a forearm in for another cover, TWO. He wraps Chase in a chinlock with a knee into the back.

Chase fights his way up, throws body shots, and breaks free. Kenny shoves but Chase comes back with a jawbreaker. Chase runs, ducks and hits back with a forearm. He rallies with more forearms, jumps the sweep and hits an enziguri! Kenny gets to a corner while Chase runs in for a running European Uppercut. Chase then rolls Kenny out for a Shining Wizard! Cover, TWO! Chase brings Kenny up for a chop. Then he whips Kenny, but Kenny goes up and over into a sunset flip, TWO! Kenny runs into Chase’s swing, for a swinging facebuster! Cover, TWO!

Chase keeps his cool as he double guns. BANG and he brings Kenny up, but Kenny gets out of the package driver. Kenny swings but Chase blocks to fire off a strike fest! Chase runs but into an elbow. Kenny runs but into a boot! Chase goes for the rebound back suplex but Kenny slips out of it, but jams his leg! The referee checks on Kenny but Chase senses something’s up. Chase moves the referee aside, but still gets caught in Kenny’s cradle! Kenny wins!!

Winner: Kenny King, by pinfall

The #BulletClubSilencer continues to steal victories, not because he has to, but because he wants to. Is there any way to stop the K I N G from riding the line? Or is he going to climb up the ladder by any means necessary?

 

Team Coast2Coast speaks.

“It was a slow Summer”, but Shaheem Ali is back at 100%, they beat The Kingdom, and now have momentum going into their ROH World Tag Team Championship match next week! But they’re still undefeated, too! So now, Ali & Leon St. Giovanni get their shot at The Briscoes! Can they take those titles from #DemBoyz, Jay & Mark? Or will they fail to #ManUp when it’s Sandy Fork VS Everybody?

 

Flip Gordon VS Shane Taylor!

The high-flying Captain of Flip Army and the hard-hitting Notorious Hitman have had their past battles, such as for a chance at the ROH World TV title. Flip just went through a brutal Tables Elimination Tag match at Death Before Dishonor against Bully Ray and Silas Young. Flip already feels beat up from going through hardwood, will he feel even worse after a round with the One Hitter Quitter?

Before the match, Flip takes to the mic. “Listen, Shane. I have no problem fighting you tonight. But first, there’s something I need to get off my chest.” Flip calls out Bully Ray for putting Colt Cabana through a table. He made sure the odds were stacked in a match of his choosing, in the match that he made famous. But what happened? Flip still put Bully AND Silas through tables! But Bully couldn’t handle that, so he cheated. Flip wants to know what Bully wants. A TLC? A Las Vegas Street Fight? What does Bully want? “Do you know who I am?” Bully is here!

And Bully says Flip needs to focus on Taylor. What’s wrong, Flip? Is Bully under his skin? Is Flip upset over getting kicked in the balls and kept down? Flip says he beat Bully at his own game, but Bully says it only matters what the referee saw. Speaking of, Taylor comes in with a chair, but Flip sees him in time! Taylor stays back as Bully says be more concerned with everyone else. Because Silas Young slithers in to uppercut Flip in the balls! Bully mocks Flip as he says “It happened again.” Flip’s in the same spot as always: down on his knees in pain, because Bully is too smart for him. Then Bully tells Taylor to finish it off, and make it stiff! Taylor SMACKS Flip across the back!

Bully mockingly calls for help from the back while he shoves the referee down. Then he mocks Ian Riccaboni and the Vegas audience. Taylor SMACKS Flip again! Bully keeps egging Ian on, as Silas gives Flip the knee and Misery neckbreaker! Flip is down and out and all alone, and Bully asks again, “Do you know who I am?” Bully and his new crew stand tall as Vegas boos and jeers, will anyone put these three in their place?

No Contest

 

The Briscoes speak.

Jay & Mark know Coast 2 Coast are undefeated in 2018, but that will only make it worse when they lose. When the ROH World Tag Team Championships are on the line, “y’all don’t stand a chance in hell.” Will Ali & LSG shock the world? Or will they simply crash and burn against the 9-time and mean-as-hell champions?

 

Jay Lethal speaks.

“The fact that we have sold out Madison Square Garden, I get goosebumps just thinking about it.” Lethal’s generation grew up loving pro-wrestling and dreaming of being at MSG. It is now a reality for ROH. There are always doubters and naysayers, let them talk. But the fact is, ROH and NJPW did it. “The little kid inside of me is smiling ear to ear knowing that I am going to get to wrestle at Madison Square Garden.” The only thing that could make it even sweeter, is if when they arrive, Lethal is still ROH World Champion. Lethal wants us all to believe and to know, that come April, the belt will be with the greatest wrestler in the world today, and that’s him. April is a long ways away, will Lethal keep his promise?

 

The Kingdom head out.

They’ve got everything they need, namely their ROH World Championship belt. There is still a question of validity, when will Lethal and Taven settle the issue of who is the REAL real World Champion?

 

Fatal 4 Way Tag: The Addiction VS The Young Bucks VS Best Friends VS EVIL & SANADA!

Teams that cross ROH and NJPW lines collide in this massive main event! Will Christopher Daniels & Frankie Kazarian, Matt & Nick Jackson, Chuckie T & Trent Baretta or Los Ingobernables de Japon’s King of Darkness and Cold Skull make major moves towards World Tag Team Championship contention?

ROH returns with all eight men standing in their teams, but then the Kentucky Gentleman throws the first punch! It all explodes into a brawl and they pair off! Chuckie has Sanada, Trent has Daniels, Evil has Nick Jackson while Kaz has Matt. The Fallen Angel throws Nick out so he can go after Evil, but the other six don’t see the Bucks regroup. Nick climbs up, and with Matt’s help, he launches onto everyone else! The Bucks control the ring as they double whip Kaz. Nick sweeps and Matt low dropkicks, then they go after Daniels with the gutbuster to swinging neck and backbreaker! Trent runs into double kicks but Chuckie saves him from the alley-oop attack. Chuckie puts Matt in a corner, then dodges Nick to send the brothers into each other.

Trent enziguris Nick then Chuckie scoops Matt. Trent directs Chuckie, and Matt gets the Long Dart Cutter! Fans fire up as the Best Friends– are stopped from hugging as Evil & Sanada attack! LIJ rake the eyes of both Best Friends, then they double whip Trent. They double elbow Trent down and drop toehold Chuckie onto him, and Evil adds a big back senton to sandwich them both! The Addiction return and run both LIJ over. They double wrench Evil and bring him to his knees. Kaz kicks, Daniels clubs, and Kaz double stomps! Sanada runs into a scoop slam, and then The Addiction work together for the back suplex splash and lionsault!

Kaz slingshots out to huricanrana Evil down, but Sanada slingshots to splash on him. Daniels DIVES and hits Sanada! But then Matt wrecks Daniels with a dropkick, and sets up the pins for Nick. Nick runs for a corkscrew moonsault! But wait, Trent builds up speed, Chuckie intercepts to hug! The Best Friends hit The Addiction to then DOUBLE FLY onto all six opponents! Chuckie puts Daniels in but the ref checks on Daniels given his neck. Daniels says he’s fine, and the bell rings to finally make this match official!

Chuckie hotshots Daniels and Trent rolls him up! TWO!! This match was almost the fastest in ROH history given all that brawling didn’t count. Trent keeps on Daniels but Daniels jawbreakers him away. Sanada tags in per the rules of Four Corner Survival tags, and goes after Daniels. He grabs Daniels’ nose then slaps it! Sanada puts Daniels down and ties him up in the Paradise Lock! Daniels is stuck but Kaz comes in. Sanada trips him and ties him up right beside Daniels! That’s double Paradise, and Sanada kicks them both out of it! Cover on Daniels, TWO! Sanada tags Evil and Evil slaps Daniels around. Daniels fires chops and forearms in return, but the kick is blocked. Evil gives Daniels over to the referee, to mule kick Daniels in the buttocks! Evil rakes Daniels’ back, twice!

Daniels crawls to ropes but Evil is on him. Evil whips and hits the sidewalk slam. Cover, TWO! Evil keeps Daniels down with a chinlock, but fans build up to a rally while we go to one last break.

ROH returns as Daniels blocks Evil’s kick! Daniels gives it to the ref and he mule kicks Evil in the buttocks! But the payback continues as Daniels gives Evil an atomic facebuster! Both men are down and fans rally up. Best Friends drop off their corner and put on their shades as they swagger over to trip up Kaz! Sanada gets the tag from Evil and both LIJ go after Daniels. They double whip but Daniels sends them into each other. Daniels rolls Evil up, ONE, but Daniels clotheslines Sanada right down. Evil swings at Daniels, Daniels ducks and tags in Nick Jackson! Nick rallies on LIJ with kicks and elbows. He shining wizards Sanada and hits the bulldog clothesline combination! Chuckie T tags in but both Best Friends enter.

They go after Nick together, double whip but Nick kicks the sunglasses off Chuckie. Nick chops and slaps Trent, to go “Lucha Libre~!” on both Best Friends! Matt comes in and wheelbarrows Chuckie for the victory roll bomb! Cover, TWO!! Matt gets Chuckie up and fireman’s carry, but Chuckie slips out. Chuckie gets to a corner, goes up and over Matt, then throws Nick overhead onto Matt! Kaz puts Chuckie on the apron and slingshots him in for the cutter! Sanada runs in, wants Skull End but Kaz reverses, only for Sanada to suplex him into the draping swinging neckbreaker! Trent is in, dodges Sanada and hits the tornado DDT! Evil is in but he gets a chop. Trent runs but Evil uses the ref as a shield, to then mule kick and suplex Trent onto the ref’s shoulder, for Magic Killer!

Nick’s up, SUPERKICK on Evil! SUPERKICK misses Daniels, Daniels hits Angel’s Wings! SUPERKICK from Matt, Chuckie gives Matt the Awful Waffle driver! Cover, TWO!!

Cover, but Nick breaks it with a swanton! Kaz bumps Chuckie off apron, but fans are rallying for Bucks and Best Friends.

Nick and Trent stand and trade right hands. Both men collide with clotheslines, but Daniels runs in. Daniels only gets Trent, then turns around for a SUPERKICK! Kaz gets a SUPERKICK! Chuckie gets a SUPERKICK! Evil blocks the Superkick but Matt saves Nick from the Everything is Evil STO! Double SUPERKICKS! Sanada flies in, for SUPERKICKS! The Bucks grab Trent and set him up in the tombstone. Nick cartwheels and asai moonsaults The Addiction down! Nick hurries up, dial it up, springboard for the Five Star Meltzer Driver!! Cover, The Young Bucks win!!

Winners: The Young Bucks, Matt Jackson pinning

The arguably top tag team in the world win big in this big match! Will Matt & Nick find themselves again challenging for the ROH World Tag Team Championships in the near future? Will it be the Briscoes or Team Coast2Coast who hold those belts when they do?

 


 

My Thoughts:

A pretty great episode of ROH here. We’re now past Death Before Dishonor, and while Jay Lethal is still world champion, clearly we’re seeing the start of an “Undisputed ROH World Champion” story. Lethal also vows to be THE champion come April, maybe they find a way to extend this idea all the way to the G1 Supercard so that Madison Square Garden will be the place where either Lethal or Taven establishes themselves as THE champion. Also, personally, I would’ve tried to change things up more than just making the belt strap purple. But hey, ROH is on a small budget. If you don’t believe me, get a closer look at the “red carpet” Kenny King had. Those gold stars looked hand-made, and cheaply. King beats Chase Owens with another sneaky move, but surely someone higher ranking in Bullet Club like Cody will put a stop to King’s streak.

The moment Flip called out Bully, it should’ve been clear things would turn out this way. Bully, Silas and Taylor are becoming quite the force, so I’m wondering who Flip can enlist to help him. He’s become good friends with The Bullet Club, but they’re all in other stories. Short of Silas’ old buddies turning face, I don’t see anyone big enough both literally and in kayfabe that could help. Then that Four Corners Survival tag was pretty awesome. All the teams got to display their abilities, but naturally The Young Bucks win. Episode 370 will be great with the ROH World Television and World Tag Team Championships on the line. I’m sure Coast2Coast will look strong but I’m thinking The Briscoes retain to give us one more battle with The Bucks. Oh, and Jeff Cobb will obviously win, but in an epic good-bye to Martinez.

My Score: 8.5/10

Tony Khan speaks.

“Welcome to AEW Dynamite. I’m here live in Jacksonville, Florida, and I’ll be producing tonight’s show here in the offices of the Jaguars. I wish I could be live there in Winnipeg for Kenny Omega’s return in his hometown tonight at a perfect time. Unfortunately I’m not cleared to leave Jacksonville, Florida, due to the actions of AEW’s Executive Vice Presidents, Matthew & Nicholas Jackson, and the reinstated Jack Perry.” Something’s going wonky with Tony’s video as he explains the head and neck injuries suffered… And then The Bucks cut in to say they’re “losing” Tony. Technical difficulties. Sorry, TK, they lost connection.

But hey, Tony may not be here, but the Bucks are. And some of you may be asking, how is that cool after what they did last week? How are they not fired? Well, see, iron clad contracts, with a founder’s clause. They won’t get into the details, but let’s just say that they and their colleagues are not going anywhere. And in those same details, it says that if Tony Khan cannot physically be at an event, the EVPs would succeed him. In other words, The Bucks are in charge now! With that said, they’re going to run the new show open! It’s all Elite, as in all Bucks, all Jack and all Okada! They said they wanted to change the world, is that change just more of themselves?

 

Swerve Strickland is here!

Winnipeg cheers as Prince Nana leads the way for the AEW World Champion! Swerve takes the mic to say, “What’s going on, everybody? Three matches, three shows, in one week. That is the type of champion that All Elite Wrestling deserves, and that is the type of champion that Swerve said he was always gonna be.” The fans cheer that! Swerve says what AEW does not deserve are selfish, greedy, childish, power hungry EVPs that think they can just throw their weight around without any kind of consequences. Swerve stands on his words: What the Bucks did was a b*tch move. Now that’ll be handled at some point, but Swerve will get to business.

Who is going to be Swerve’s opponent for Double or Nothing? The fans ask “WHO? WHO? WHO?” and Swerve says he doesn’t know. Winnipeg doesn’t know. But whoever it is, come, present yourself. But wipe your feet before you step into whose house? “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” But then The Bucks interrupt on the tron. They tell the champ congrats. But guess who else are champs: The Bucks! And uh, they also wanted to stop by because something else has been bothering them. It seems that success has gone to Swerve’s head. The first time he talks after winning the big one, and he badmouths his bosses, the EVPs, on national television, and using curse words?

The network hated that, that is a fine. And maybe Swerve just needs a dose of humility. How do you do that? Well, how about The Bucks arrange the very best, the perfect opponent, for Swerve at Double or Nothing? This man happens to be one of the best Canadian pro-wrestlers of all time. He’s a former champion, and hasn’t been around. But he’s waiting at the go position, ready to meet Swerve! Hit the music in three, two, one. GO! It’s… Christian Cage?! The fans are a bit torn as they were hoping for a different Canadian star, but The Patriarch leads Mother Shayna, Nick Wayne & Killswitch/Luchasaurus to the ring.

Christian gets a mic as he goes up onto the apron. He steps inside, Shayna Wayne by his side, but Nick and Killswitchasaurus lurking outside. There are fans who cheer on Christian, and then he sucker punches Swerve with the mic!! Christian fires off hands and knocks Swerve down, and Nana can only cower in a corner! But Swerve gets up to fire back! And he DECKS Nick! And he BOOTS Killswitch! But then Shayna gets in Swerve’s face. Killswitchasaurus turns Swerve around to HEADBUTT him! And he CLOBBERS Nana! Christian snatches the world title, drags Swerve up, KILLSWITCH on the belt!!

The fans are again torn, but Christian then drags Nana up! He holds Nana in place so Nick can hit WAYNE’S WORLD! Christian then goes back to the mic, and he looms over Swerve to tell him, “There’s something you should know about me. I never forget. I haven’t forgotten that some months ago, you broke into my son, Nick Wayne’s gym and left him in a pool of his own blood. I haven’t forgotten- Keep it down while I’m conducting my business!” The fans boo but Christian says he didn’t forget that at one time, they were a tag team at the biggest show in the history of this business, and Swerve lost! Swerve embarrassed Christian!

Christian’s been waiting for the right moment to make him answer for those mistakes, and Swerve went and won the world championship. It seems like there’s no better time than right now to make Swerve pay for those mistakes. Christian will embarrass Swerve the same way Swerve embarrassed him. Christian will end Swerve’s reign before it even begins, and make him a footnote in the history of AEW! The fans boo more but Christian says he heard that speech last week, Swerve talking about his path to this title, how grueling it was and how he put every ounce of himself into it, to where his own daughter doesn’t even know him.

Christian tells Swerve that when he’s done with Swerve, Swerve’s daughter won’t want to know him! But Christian will promise Swerve this: Swerve’s daughter will have a father she can be proud of for the rest of her life! Christian tells Winnipeg that the same way the Colorado Avalanche walked into their house and took their championship dreams away, Christian will walk into Swerve’s House at Double or Nothing and rip this AEW World Championship from his hands. But Swerve, know this: “The pain has just begun.” And with that, Luchasaurus PULLS Swerve’s hair out of his head! Luchasaurus shows off the braid, will that only be the first trophy The Patriarchy takes?

 

AEW TNT Championship: Adam “Edge” Copeland VS ??? w/ The House of Black!

After defeating The Rated R Superstar, as well as Mark Briscoe & Eddie Kingston, at Dynasty, the House of Black has answered the call of the #CopeOpen. However, they’re going to keep us guessing until the very moment it’s time to fight! Malakai Black speaks from the shadows that everyone expected him to come out here, all the bells and whistles. But why should Malakai fight Edge now, when watching what he did to Edge infiltrating Edge’s mind is so much more rewarding? Malakai laughs, but then who is coming for the gold? It’s the Aussie Juggernaut, Buddy Matthews! The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if the House Always Wins!

The bell rings and the fans rally up as Edge and Buddy stare down. The two tie up, Buddy headlocks, but Edge powers up and out. They RAM shoulders and neither falls. The two reset, tie up again, and Edge headlocks. Buddy powers up and out, they RAM shoulders, and again neither falls. The fans rally as the two circle, tie up, and Buddy headlocks for the takeover. Buddy holds off the headscissors but Edge powers through. Edge has the headscissors, Buddy kips free, but turns around into a headlock takeover. Buddy headscissors, Edge kips free, but Buddy sweeps to a cover! ONE, and Edge sweeps to a cover, ONE!

Buddy kip sup and stares Edge down and the fans cheer. Edge and Buddy circle, tie up, and Buddy waistlocks. Edge pries at the hold, switches back, and he CLUBS Buddy. Edge back suplexes, Buddy lands out and RANAS! Edge tumbles out, Buddy builds speed, but then he stops as Edge is ready. The two stare down, Edge eggs Buddy on, and Buddy kicks him. Buddy whips, Edge reverses and TOSSES Buddy out! Edge builds speed but Buddy hurries in, Edge DUMPS Buddy back out! Edge gets moving and DIVES! Down goes Buddy and the fans fire up! Edge shakes out his arms and gets to his feet as Dynamite goes picture in picture.

Edge storms his way over to Buddy at the ramp, drags him up, and sends him into the steel steps! Edge refreshes the ring count, then stalks Buddy to the barriers. Edge brings Buddy around to whip him hard into the railing! The fans fire up as Edge storms over to Buddy, CLUBS him on the back, but then Buddy kicks back! Buddy SMACKS Edge off barriers, makes him take a seat, then runs to KNEE Edge into barriers! Buddy shoves Edge down, then brings him back up to ROCK him with a forearm! Buddy puts Edge in the ring, storms his way up the steps, and then storms up to Edge. Edge throws body shots and forearms in return!

Edge has Buddy in a corner, but Buddy shoves Edge away. Buddy runs up, into a kitchen sink knee! Buddy sits up clutching his stomach, but Edge pushes him down for a cover, TWO! Buddy bails out, Edge pursues, and Edge brings Buddy around to SMACK off steel steps! Edge ROCKS Buddy with forearm after forearm, but then Buddy WRINGS Edge’s arm into the apron! Buddy rolls into the ring, Edge drags himself back up, and Dynamite returns to single picture. Buddy runs up but Edge fires hands! Edge bumps Buddy off buckles, then HOTSHOTS him! The fans rally and Edge drags himself back up, to RAM into Buddy, only for Buddy to make it a DDT!

The fans rally while both men are down. Edge and Buddy rise up, and Buddy stomps Edge to a corner. Buddy stomps a mudhole in, the fans boo and the ref counts. Buddy stomps Edge more, then CHOKES him! The ref counts and fans boo but Buddy lets off at 4. Buddy drags Edge up, snapmares and KICKS him in the back! Edge writhes while Buddy soaks up the heat. Buddy sits Edge up, runs and stops to clamp on a chinlock! Buddy grinds Edge down, almost has a Bulldog Choke, but Edge endures. The fans rally up as Edge moves around, then rises to his feet. Edge RAMS Buddy into a corner, but Buddy holds on tight!

Edge flails, pries at the hold, and he RAMS Buddy into the corner again! Buddy won’t let go, and Edge starts to fade! The fans rally up again and Edge fights up. Edge RAMS Buddy in again, gets free this time, and comes back, but into a BOOT! Buddy runs up, but into a FLAPJACK! The fans fire up while both men are down again! Buddy rolls to the apron on one side, Edge goes to another. Edge finds Buddy at the corner, but Buddy fires hands! Buddy climbs up now, but Edge resists the lift! The fans fire up as Edge throws body shots then haymakers! Buddy gives those right back, they hockey scrum right up top!

Buddy HEADBUTTS and both men fall back! They both hit apron and then the floor! The fans fire up while the ring count begins. Both men stir at 4 of 10, flounder at 5, and sit up at 7! They stand at 9 and slide in! The fans fire up as this match continues, and the two start throwing forearms! Edge gets the edge, but Buddy still hits back! Edge stands, reels Buddy in but Buddy wrenches out to shove and FOREARM! Buddy runs, but Edge follows to FOREARM! Edge runs, Buddy swings, Edge dodges, but then Buddy dodges! DOUBLE CROSSBODIES collide! The fans fire up again as both men are down!

The ref checks both men, Buddy sputters and has some blood in his mouth. Medics are called over, is Buddy already done for? He gets checked on while Dynamite goes picture in picture.

The ref double checks Edge, he seems alright. Buddy is still coughing for air, but there doesn’t seem to be any critical damage done, so the match continues. Both men stand, and they fire haymakers! The hockey scrum is back, Edge ROCKS Buddy then KNEES him low! Buddy backs to a corner, Edge whips him corner to corner hard! Buddy coughs for air again as he doubles over. The ref checks him, Buddy says he’s good to go so Edge digs his knee into Buddy’s face! The ref counts, Edge drags Buddy up, and Edge DECKS Buddy with a forearm! The ref again checks on Buddy, but he refuses to stay down, so Edge DECKS him again!

Dynamite returns to single picture, and Edge CHOPS Buddy in the corner! And CHOPS again! Edge keeps Buddy standing, then climbs up the corner. Edge rains down fists and the fans count all the way to TEN! But Buddy YANKS Edge down into the buckle! And again, and again, and again! Then Buddy gets up and under Edge, for a SITOUT POWERBOMB! Cover, TWO!! Edge survives but Buddy is too sore to be upset. The fans rally up as both men stir, and Buddy rolls his way to the apron.

Buddy drags himself up, climbs a corner, but Edge runs up to trip him up! Buddy lands on the crossbar, and then Edge BOOTS him! Edge then climbs up the corner, he CLUBS Buddy on the back again and again, and he brings Buddy to the top rope. Edge fires a few more fists, but Buddy hits back! Buddy SMACKS Edge off buckles, then goes up and over to SUNSET FLIP! Edge holds onto the ropes so Buddy lets off. Edge mule kicks Buddy right in the chest! But Buddy comes back to UPPERCUT! Buddy climbs, Edge fights the superplex and shoves him away. Buddy comes right back to try again, but he just gets more body shots!

Edge brings Buddy up, for a SUPER IMPALER!! Both men are down as Edge can’t make the cover! The fans are thunderous as Edge crawls over, cover, TWO!! Buddy survives, showing some serious toughness! The fans cheer on “A E DUB! A E DUB!” and then fire up as Edge rises! Edge takes aim from a corner as Buddy rises up. Edge runs in, but into a KICK! And a KNEE! And another KNEE! Buddy then suplexes, JACKHAMMER!! Cover, TWO!! But into a CROSSFACE!! Buddy has Edge caught, but Edge endures and fights around. Edge reaches out, the fans rally as hard as they can, and Edge turns things into a cradle! TWO!!

Buddy swings, but into an OLYMPIC SLAM! We reach the 20 minute mark, time is running out! Edge finds the cover, TWO!! Buddy is still in this after everything he’s taken, but Edge aims to finish this. Buddy rises, Edge runs in, but Buddy sends him into buckles! Buddy then fireman’s carries, to GO TO SLEEP!! Buddy staggers back but he aims! Buddy runs up, but Edge dodges the stomp! Edge shoves and SPEARS!! Cover, EDGE WINS!

Winner: Adam “Edge” Copeland, by pinfall (still AEW TNT Champion)

The Rated R Superstar retains, but in many ways survives this challenge! But there’s rage boiling over and he CLUBS away on Buddy! Edge goes out and looks around, and he finds two chairs! Everyone knows what Edge does with chairs, and he gets in the ring! Buddy flounders, stands, but Edge SMACKS him back down! Edge puts that chair under Buddy’s head, and then gets the other chair! Fans are torn, but is Edge really gonna do this? Edge seems to be conflicted, as well, but then the lights go out! When the lights come back up, MALAKAI BLACK is there! The Dark Father tells Edge to do it!? Do what he was going to! And even Buddy wants it!

Edge raises the chair, but then aims at Malakai! The lights go out again, and the House is gone. Was The Rated R Superstar about to give in to his darkness? Or will the guiding light of being TNT Champion help keep him safe against the House of Black?

 

Samoa Joe VS Isiah Kassidy!

The King of Wrestling Television may have lost his crown, but he hasn’t lost what made him champion in the first place. Will he get back on track with a win tonight? Or will Brother Zay earn a title shot (shot shot) of his own by pinning the former champion?

The bell rings and fans sing “Joe is gonna kill~ you!” Zay brushes that off as he and Joe circle. They feel things out, but Zay gets back, and he grabs Joe’s towel! Zay mocks Joe, does a dance, and Joe smirks. Joe CHOKES Zay using the towel! The ref counts, Joe lets off, but Zay claws the eyes! Zay tells Joe he wants none of this! Zay runs, but Joe FLAPJACKS him! Joe then JABS! JABS! JABS! Joe fires off on Zay in the corner, then OVERHAND CHOPS! Joe applauds with the fans while Zay bails out. Joe builds speed, but he stops the dive as Zay slides in. Joe goes back to the apron but Zay runs up to triangle jump STUNNER!

Joe falls back, Zay fires up and builds speed, and Zay FLIES, but Joe just steps aside! Zay crashes ‘n’ burns as fans cheer Joe’s signature dodge! Joe drags Zay up, puts him in the ring, and the singing continues, “Joe is gonna kill~ you!” Joe drags Zay up, but Zay throat chops! The fans boo but Zay hobbles, runs, and flapjack DROPKICKS! Joe ends up in a corner, Zay hobbles over and rains down fists! And elbows! Zay MONKEY FLIP- NO, Joe is just too big for that! Joe puts Zay up top, HEADBUTTS, then tucks him in! MUSLCE BUSTER!! Joe drops into the cover, and wins!

Winner: Samoa Joe, by pinfall

Championship or not, Joe is still a dangerous man! Will all the champions of AEW have to watch out for Joe coming after them?

 

Skye Blue speaks.

“Willow Nightingale, my former best friend. You’re a damn fraud! You know last time one-on-one in that ring, I had you pinned. If it weren’t for that bald b*tch on a leash, Stokely Hathaway… And Julia and I, last time in Canada, we beat both you and Statlander in a Street Fight. So you know I have your number because I have proved it every damn week. And if you’re even half the woman that you say you are, come prove it tonight on Rampage, and put the TBS title on the line.” The Chicago Skye has made the challenge, will Willow go on a Rampage with her?

 

Orange Cassidy is here!

Winnipeg fires up for Freshly Squeezed, but surely he is in a sour mood after how the Parking Lot Brawl went. It wasn’t even that Trent Beretta beat Chuck Taylor and won. It was that after the match, Trent used a monkey wrench to all but shatter Chuck’s leg just because he could! Cassidy gets in the ring now and has a mic to say, “I hate this. See, I thought after Saturday, when my Best Friends, Chuck and Trent, got into a parking lot, beat each other up, and get everything out of their systems, we’d come back together, stand here in this ring together, as Best Friends. But see, that’s never gonna happen.

“I have been told that because of what Trent did to Chuck after the match… I have been told that my Best Friend, Chuck Taylor, will never wrestle again.” Fans are shocked and upset, and Cassidy takes off the sunglasses. “So now I’m standing in this ring alone, to tell you, Trent Beretta, that the next time I see you-” Trent interrupts! And he says wow, big surprise! Cassidy is making things about himself again! Trying to make somebody else’s career ending about himself! Cassidy rushes out but the security guards get in the way! Trent says Cassidy is too selfish! That’s why this all happened! Chuck’s career is over because of Cassidy, not Trent!

Cassidy is still pushing through the security guards so Kris Statlander hurries out here to stop him! Trent says Cassidy is the selfish one! Then Don Callis walks out here!? The fans boo as Callis talks Cassidy down, and whispers something to him. Trent says Cassidy is selfish, and Cassidy actually walks away with Callis?! Trent gives a mocking thumbs up, but just what is going on here?

 

Backstage interview with The Young Bucks.

Renee Paquette is with Matthew & Nicholas Jackson, and says tonight is a big night. Can the EVPs give her any nuggets as to what else is planned? Matt says first off, she’s killing it as always. How’s the family? How’s Jon? Oh, they’re all g- That’s great to hear. But they don’t really have time to talk right now, they’re looking for an old. Has she happened to bump into him yet? No? Okay. Well, they’ve had way too much TV time tonight already, let’s give some to their good friend, The Scapegoat, Jack Perry! Jack tags in for the interview and Renee asks him just what the hell was he thinking attacking Tony Khan last week.

Jack says he meant what he said last week. The only thing he wants is what’s best for AEW. And some people might not see it, but that’s what he did. The funny part to Jack is that Tony Khan is the one who made Jack into “The Scapegoat.” It hurt at the time, but he accepted it at the time because he realized that it was a sacrifice that someone was gonna have to make. But we all have to sacrifice, Tony. And thanks to you, we are entering a new era of AEW, under The Elite! Jack & The Bucks head out, what else is going to happen in their era?

 

FTW Championship: Chris Jericho VS Katsuyori Shibata!

The Learning Tree has not only changed his attitude and his song, but now he’s changed his look when it comes to his ring gear. All this along with how he has supposedly changed the meaning of the acronym. This is now the #ForTheWorld Championship, because he claims to be doing all this for the world! Well, will The Wrestler cut down The Learning Tree for the sake of the world? Or will even Shibata have something to learn from The Wizard?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is truly the master!

The bell rings and Jericho claps along with the fans as they rally up. Jericho and Shibata tie up, Jericho arm-drags, then gets all fired up for himself. Jericho waves to the fans, then circles with Shibata. They tie up, Jericho waistlocks, but Shibata switches, snapmares, and clamps on a chinlock. Shibata then floats to a top wristlock, even as fans actually cheer on the “LEARNING TREE!” Jericho fights up, Shibata wristlocks, but Jericho has the ropes. Shibata lets off slowly, but Jericho CHOPS! Shibata CHOPS back! Jericho CHOPS, Shibata CHOPS, repeat! The fans ‘WOO~” and Jericho CHOPS, CHOPS and CHOPS!

Jericho whips, he CLOBBERS Shibata, then LIONSAULTS legs onto legs! Cover, ONE!! Jericho stays cool as he goes out of the ring. Jericho looks under the ring, goes around the way, and he keeps searching. What does he want? It’s the trash can lid! Just like in his match with Hook! Jericho SMACKS Shibata down! Jericho goes back out and looks for something else. He brings out a black bag! Those are never good… Jericho brings the bag in and dumps out… HOCKEY PUCKS! The fans cheer that, because those are Winnipeg Jets pucks! But then Shibata hits an STO onto the pucks! Jericho writhes, and Shibata drags him up, to snap suplex onto pucks!

Jericho writhes, again suffering from his own idea. Shibata stomps Jericho, grabs that trash can lid, but puts it aside. Shibata brushes the pucks away with his feet, to CHOP! And CHOPS! The fans “WOO~!” as those CHOPS echo out! Jericho stands, but Shibata CHOPS again! Jericho CHOPS, Shibata CHOPS, and then Shibata eggs Jericho on! The fans fire up and Jericho nods. Jericho CHOPS, but Shibata CHOPS! Both men’s chests are getting redder as the CHOPS keep going! Jericho CHOPS, Shibata barely flinches! Shibata CHOPS, Jericho winces, but he still CHOPS! Shibata CHOPS and the fans are all fired up!

Jericho goes to a corner, grits his teeth and comes back to CHOP! Shibata CHOPS right before Dynamite goes picture in picture!

Jericho is starting to get frustrated, but he still CHOPS! Shibata CHOPS again! CHOP after CHOP, neither man is backing down! Oh, but Jericho does feel that one more than the rest! Shibata eggs Jericho on, and Jericho frowns as he looks around. Jericho stares Shibata down, then winds up to CHOP! Shibata CHOPS again! Jericho huffs and puffs but that one really stung. Jericho still CHOPS, Shibata CHOPS again, and this CHOP fight isn’t stopping! Jericho pumps up to COHP! Shibata pumps up to CHOP! Jericho takes a moment, his entire chest is red! Jericho gets in Shibata’s face, snarls and fires up the fans, to CHOP!

The CHOP fest hits another stride! Shibata CHOPS, and CHOPS, and then CHOPS again! Jericho ends up in a corner, he CHOPS back and they speed back up! Shibata CHOPS overhand and Jericho is sent reeling! Shibata doesn’t even seem to care that his chest is bright red! The CHOPS just keep going back and forth, over and over! Jericho needs to catch his breath from the impacts, but he doesn’t stop coming back for more! Winnipeg fires up as the CHOPS just keep going and Dynamite returns to single picture! The fans cheer on “A E DUB! A E DUB!” as the CHOPS just keep ringing out!

Shibata CHOPS, and CHOPS and then finally goes to forearms in the corner! Shibata gives one more CHOP, then he goes corner to corner, but Jericho CHUCKS a puck! Shibata takes it and comes back with haymakers! Jericho trips Shibata into the WALLS OF JERICHO! The fans go wild as Shibata endures! Shibata fights around, reaches out, but Jericho keeps him from ropes! Jericho sits deep on the hold, but Shibata pushes up, tucks ‘n’ rolls and gets the ankles to trip Jericho! Shibata steps through into a FIGURE FOUR! Now fans “WOO~” for a different reason! Jericho grabs another puck as he sits up, to CHUCK it into Shibata’s face!!

Shibata clutches his nose as he lets the leglock go, and Jericho has more pucks! The fans fire up as Jericho goes out to search under the ring. He brings out a kendo stick, and a trash can! Jericho is again recreating his match with Hook, but he also adds another kendo stick. Jericho puts the can around Shibata, then SMACKS it with the stick! And again! The stick is breaking as Jericho SMACKS away with those headshot strikes! Wait, Shibata is standing up!? Shibata is perhaps using the can as armor as he steps into the strikes! Jericho keeps hitting Shibata but Shibata keeps backing him down! Now Jericho’s cornered!

Jericho apologizes, but Shibata TRASH CAN HEADBUTTS him! Jericho sits down, Shibata kicks him, then takes off the trash can! The fans fire up as Shibata lets Jericho hold the can, then runs to HYDRAULIC DROPKICK it into Jericho! Jericho flounders, Shibata covers, TWO! Shibata clears some space, and he finds the kendo sticks! The fans fire up as Shibata dual wields, only to give one to Jericho! Shibata wants a fair fight, after all! Jericho and Shibata circle, but then Shibata sits down? So Jericho does the same. They square up, and Shibata SMACKS Jericho on the ear! Jericho SMACKS Shibata on the shoulder, Shibata returns fire, and the fans fire up!

The SMACKS go again and again, then they clash stick to stick! Shibata disarms Jericho to then SMACK away on Jericho’s leg! Then he gets around, KENDO STICK SAIDO onto the pucks!! Jericho writhes, Shibata goes out and looks under the ring. Shibata brings out a TABLE! The fans go wild seeing that! Shibata puts the table into the ring, props it up in a table, and he fires off JABS and CHOPS! Jericho wobbles with every shot, so Shibata CLUBS him again and again and again! Then CHOPS him! Jericho is against the table, Shibata runs, but into a CODE BREAKER!! Cover, TWO!! The fans fire up as Shibata survives!

Jericho aims from a corner, takes aim, JUDAS- SLEEPER!! Shibata has Jericho caught, but Jericho flails around! Jericho reaches for ropes, but Shibata grabs that arm, ripcords and CHOPS! Jericho falls and Shibata goes back to the table. The fans duel as Shibata takes this table and stands it up in the drop zone. “This is Awesome!” but wait! BIG BILL is here! And he BOOTS Jericho down!! The fans boo as Morrissey saves the Learning Tree and then SKYSCRAPER CHOKE SLAMS Shibata through the table!! Bill leaves it to Jericho, and Jericho crawls to cover Shibata in the wreckage. Jericho wins!

Winner: Chris Jericho, by pinfall (still FTW Champion)

Bill saved Jericho #ForTheWorld, and Jericho seems to appreciate that. Will The Learning Tree take Bill under his wing- er, branches, and guide him to success?

 

BREAKING NEWS for Collision!

May the Fourth be with you as AEW takes Saturday night off for the Star Wars movie marathon!

 

Backstage interview with Willow Nightingale, Kris Statlander & Stokely Hathaway.

Renee is with the TBS Champion, the Galaxy’s Greatest and #BigStoke, and she brings up last week’s confrontation with Mercedes Mone. It seemed there was major miscommunication there. Yes, Kris wants to apologizes. Mone had no right to interrupt, Kris was just trying to diffuse the situation, but it backfired onto Willow, Kris is so sorry. Renee pivots to later tonight on Rampage with another challenger in the form of Skye Blue. Yes, Willow will accept the challenge. Because lucky for Skye Blue, last week left Willow in a fighting mood. So Mone, don’t think Willow will forget about that cheap shot.

But Skye, if you want a fight, honey, Willow will mop the floor with you! With this title on the line, Willow will maim, massacre, right here in Winnipeg, Manitoba! Stokely speaks up, saying the worst part is what Skye said about him! And he can’t complain to nobody because those p*icks, the Young Bucks, beat up Tony Khan! And worst part about that is, they did it before payday! But then a technical aid brings Renee her phone. Oh, it’s a text from Matt & Nick… They tell her she’s doing a good job, though she could be smiling more. And let Stoke & Kris know that they are now BANNED from ringside during the TBS Championship! Any interference will strip Willow of the title!

Okay, aside from Stoke’s own words and actions, what’d he do to deserve this!? Kris and Stoke head out, and she makes sure he knows it was his fault. Renee wishes Willow luck, Willow thanks Renee, and she fires herself up. Will the Babe with the Power still be the Face of TBS after tonight?

 

Claudio Castagnoli VS Brian Cage w/ Prince Nana!

The Swiss Superman gave Swerve an awesome fight last week on Collision, and believes that he is the best not because he always wins, but because he always shows up, day after day after day. Claudio acknowledges he isn’t the “shiny new toy,” because he’s the one that’ll never break! Will he prove that even against The Mogul Embassy’s Machine? Or will the #Swolverine get his stuff in and take the win?
