PLAY BY PLAY

October 22, 2018 – Roman Reigns revealed his real fight.

The Big Dog wanted to be a workhorse, but he couldn’t. “The reality is, my real name is Joe, and I’ve been living with Leukemia for 11 years.” And it returned. Roman could not fulfill his role as fighting champion, and would relinquish the WWE Universal Championship. But by no means is Roman retired. He has faith that he’ll whoop Leukemia again and will return home to the WWE.

 

Tonight, February 25, 2019 – Roman Reigns returns to Raw!

The Big Dog heads down the ramp as Atlanta gives him a standing ovation. Roman high-fives and shakes hands with all the fans in the front row, as well as giving hugs to his family. He takes a moment to soak it all in before entering the ring. Atlanta continues to give him the ovation as well as chant “Welcome Back!” Roman picks up a mic and knows he’ll say this a lot, but starts with “Thank you.” Atlanta says “You are Welcome!” Roman admits, he misses them. Seriously, there is no other job like pro-wrestling. There is no other fanbase like the WWE Universe. Fans let him know “This is Your Yard!” Roman admits he’s adlibbing, but this isn’t his Yard, this is “Our Yard”.

Roman’s a man of faith, has always believed in God and the blessings He gave, but that night in October, Roman was scared. He wasn’t sure about sharing that secret. Mostly because he wasn’t sure how fans would react. When he arrived home, the outreach in texts, calls, Tweets, Instagram and Facebook, “If there was a way to get to me, y’all figured out how to do it.” The amount of thoughts and prayers sent his way was completely overwhelming and appreciated. Not just WWE fans but everyone. Anyone and everyone who knew him was surrounding him with love and support. So many people prayed for Roman, God’s voicemail was full. God must’ve wondered what was going on just for one man. But that was how strong it was to feel the love and grace of other people. The strength they gave him made Roman feel he could do anything.

Fans take a moment to chant “Thank You, Roman!” before Roman continues. That overwhelming support gave him “new life” and a new purpose. In the WWE, a lot of purpose is to win and climb the mountain. But now, Roman only wants to make his return. And if he does, he’ll use this WWE global platform to raise awareness and support others in need. Fans cheer on that new mission.

Roman knows this was advertised as an update, so now it’s time for that update. When Roman made his announcement in October, he vowed to swing for the fences. “We did better than that, y’all.” They not only swung for the fences, they hit that home run. Roman is again so grateful and humbled, to announce that- “Wrestlemania!” No, no, let’s walk before we can run. But the good news is that he is in remission! Atlanta loves to hear that! And with that said, The Big Dog IS back! Fans bark for the Big Dog, and then chant “Welcome back!” Before Roman takes his leave, he wants to say it again. “Thank you so much, y’all.” Roman loves the fans and the fans love him. When and where will Roman return to full action?

 

Seth Rollins heads to the ring!

The Architect times it right and meets Roman at the top of the ramp. The Shield brothers embrace after hearing the amazing news.

 

The Revival VS Aleister Black & Ricochet

Dash Wilder & Scott Dawson are the NEW Raw Tag Team Champions, but they already lost to the NXT Champion and North American Champion last week. This week, they face the Embodiment of the End and the King of Flight. Will the #TopGuys be able to break even against the new guys?

But before the bell, The Revival attacks! They send Ricochet tumbling out and club away on Aleister! Fans boo as the Revival double hip. Aleister slips through and Ricochet returns with a crossbody! Jumping neckbreaker for Dawsno and a handspring headscissor and dropkick for Dash! Aleister fakes them both out, but Ricochet DIVES! Ricochet takes out Dash, Aleister FLIES onto Dawson! The chaos calms while we go to break!

Raw returns and teams have sorted out. Dash has Ricochet in a keylock but Ricochet reaches for Aleister. Ricochet fights back with forearms but Dash suplexes. Ricochet lands on his feet and leaps over Dash, tag to Aleister! Aleister rallies on Dash and then sweeps the legs to drive in the knee! He roundhouses Dawson, then springboard quebradas Dash! Cover, TWO! Aleister keeps on Dash while the GLORIOUS Duo watch backstage. Bobby Roode and Chad Gable like what they see as Aleister hauls Dash up. Dawson saves Dash from the German Suplex and tags in. Dawson climbs while Dash swings on Aleister. Aleister dodges and hits Dawson but Dash hits Aleister.

Backstage interview with Baron Corbin.

The former GM made light of things like Roman Reigns’ fight with leukemia, and even hoped Roman would never return. Is there any concern now that he’s returning? Why is everyone living in the past? Corbin gets it, they’re desperate for a story. But he never said those things. They have footage of it, though. Okay, okay, it was all out of context given the stress of being in charge and in the ring. No one can understand what he was going through. Running Raw was more difficult than dealing with a disease? Corbin says that for Roman’s sake, they better not cross paths.

 

Shawn Michaels is spotted on the Raw Red Carpet.

HBK spots Johnny Gargano and they talk while being interviewed. What part will the Hall of Famer play in Ric Flair’s birthday party?

 

Ladies and Gentlemen: Elias.

The Drifter is in Atlanta, but he’s immediately interrupted by Lacey Evans! The Model Soldier walks and waves and then leaves without a word. But she’s not the only one to interrupt Elias, Dean Ambrose appears! The Lunatic Fringe sees all this celebrating and he’s in a festive mood. He’s nostalgic, if you know what he means. There’s positivity flowing through him and he feels dangerous. Ambrose issues an open challenge for a rematch with Drew McIntyre. But he wants everyone to hear this part: NO DISQUALIFICATIONS!

Elias ignores Ambrose’s wishes but Ambrose interrupts again. Trying to play him off like this is the Academy Awards? No, because if it was, Elias would have a second standing ovation. What Ambrose did was interrupt his song about loving Atlanta. Atlanta is so fascinating. It is fully capable of hosting a Super Bowl. Winning it is a different story. Ambrose is actually a big fan, and he has a request. Does Elias any Temple of the Dog? Yes. Nightranger? Yes. Yankee Doodle? Of course. Thunderstruck? Yes. How about… Dirty Deeds? Just saying. Elias could play anything, but he swings at Ambrose! Only to GET Dirty Deeds! Ambrose heads out despite fans, and Renee, wanting an encore. Will Ambrose get his request of a No DQ redo with the Scottish Terminator?

Elias sits up, but he still gets interrupted by the Riott Squad! Ruby, Liv and Sarah want to settle the score with the Baddest Woman on the Planet, after the break!

 

Ronda Rousey & Natalya VS The Riott Squad!

The Rowdy Raw Women’s Champion has run through the entire Squad on her own, but she teams with good friend in the Queen of Harts to take them all at once. Will Ronda roll right down the Road to Wrestlemania? Or will Ruby, Liv & Sarah prove to be a riotous roadblock?

The teams sort out and Sarah starts against Natty. The Kentucky Viking spinebusters Natty down fast! She fires hands off on Natty against ropes! She clubs Natty down then taunts Ronda. Sarah kicks Natty to the corner and tags in Ruby. Ruby snapmares Natty to kick her in the back. Cover, TWO! Natty powers Ruby to the corner and tags in Ronda! Ronda and Natty work together to double suplex Ruby down! Liv barks from the apron to distract Ronda, Ruby STO’s Ronda down! Ruby brings Ronda over to stomp a mudhole into Ronda, then tags Sarah. Sarah keeps up those stomps and throws right hands. Sarah tags back to Ruby and they both stomp Ronda down.

Ruby drags Ronda out but Ronda reaches for Natty. Ronda fights back buy Ruby whips her to the corner. Ronda hits Sarah then Ruby, then tags Natty! Natty rallies on Ruby but Ruby reverses the whip. Natty dodges in the corner to rebound sit-down Ruby! She hits Sarah down, then walks all over Ruby. Liv trips Natty and brags about it, but Ronda comes around the side. Liv turns around, into a Rowdy Hart Attack! Natty throws Ruby back in but Sarah shotgun knees Natty down! The Squad brings the riot while we go to break.

Raw returns and The Squad isolates Natty. Sarah uses Ruby for a human weapon, leg drop! Cover, TWO! Ruby keeps on Natty with a chinlock but fans rally up. Natty endures but Ruby keeps on the grind. Fans chant and Natty powers up to fight out. Ruby grabs hair to throw Natty down! High stack cover, TWO! Ruby argues but the ref tells her it was a two. Ruby intercepts Natty and powers her to the Squad’s corner. Tag to Sarah, and Ruby whips her in for a big corner splash. Sarah eggs Natty on but Natty fights out of the corner! Natty scrambles for Ronda but Sarah catches her! Sarah drags and drops a senton on Natty! Sarah howls but fans boo and jeer. She drags Natty up in an inverted cloverleaf!

Ronda fires off body shots but Ruby runs in! Ruby ends up stacked on top and gets body shots for herself! Ronda throws Sarah again, then knocks Liv off the apron! Huge shining wizard! Cover, but Ruby breaks it! Ruby throws Natty out but Natty drags her out with her. Discus clothesline takes Ruby out! Ronda drags Sarah up into the fireman’s carry, for Piper’s Pit! Cover, but Becky Lynch appears!? The Man again violates suspension and DECKS Natty!

Winners: Natalya & Ronda Rousey, by disqualification

Becky doesn’t care about anything but going after Ronda! So Ronda goes after her! Security does their best but its’ a fight with those crutches! Fans are thunderous as security reinforcements arrive! They barely pull Ronda and Becky apart, but Ronda fights them off! Becky almost gets loose but Ronda gets at her first! More serious authorities arrive and Atlanta police have to haul Becky away! Ronda wants to rip into Becky but the referees, security and police keep between them. Becky is cuffed and booked! Will Becky be forced to watch the rest of Raw behind bars?

 

Raw returns as Ronda helps Natalya to the back.

The Queen of Harts got the sucker punch from Becky but she’s up and walking again. As for Ronda, she storms to the ring and goes to the ring. “It’s time to end this!” She demands Vince McMahon to show himself! Ronda paces, but gets Stephanie McMahon instead. Stephanie wants Ronda to remain calm. Ronda gets to the point: reinstate Becky, add her to Wrestlemania! Stephanie knows Ronda is upset, and we all saw why. But reinstating Becky is the least of our problems. Becky has been arrested. Then take care of that, too! Drop the charges, reinstate Becky, tell “daddy” all of this. Just do it!

But it’s not that easy. Stephanie reminds Ronda that her opponent is Charlotte Flair. It’s not what anyone wanted and it didn’t go the way anyone wanted, but Becky is a loose cannon! Becky did this to Becky. So instead of the Road to Wrestlemania, Becky’s on the road to jail. But isn’t this about what’s best for business? Ronda wants it, fans want it, it’s what that “ginger douche” wants! The first-ever Women’s Main Event at Mania! Think about what this would mean to Stephanie’s legacy. Think about what it would mean to Stephanie’s daughters. Fans chant “Triple Threat!” but Stephanie says no. Ronda says no to Stephanie, and demands Becky be brought back NOW! Stephanie doesn’t want Ronda to talk like that to her. Vince was right, Ronda’s no better than Becky with a bad attitude. Nobody is bigger than the WWE!

Ronda says no one controls her. She’s bled enough to be set for life. She is not a worker bee, she is RONDA ROUSEY! Ronda carries the title as long as it carries the best of the best. But it means nothing now! It’s just a gaudy accessory. Ronda will not stand here endorsing the violation of this title! Vince says he’s able to make the tough decisions, but it’s time to make the right decision. Ronda puts the belt down, and leaves the ring. Stephanie sees Ronda’s Rowdy Ultimatum, but what is her response?

 

Triple H finds Stephanie backstage.

They talk about Ronda’s sudden actions. Will they be able to convince Vince to do as Ronda asked?

 

Jinder Mahal and the Singh Brothers are in the ring.

Fans boo The Modern Day Maharaja as he says that “All of this talk about Ric Flair’s birthday. What has Ric Flair ever done?” Does Mahal not know his wrestling history? But it’s really that he’s upset that he wasn’t invited to the part. No party is complete without the Maharaja and the Bollywood Boys! Mahal issues an open challenge to those on the guest list! As far as Mahal is concerned, the party’s over!

Open Challenge: Jinder Mahal w/ the Singh Brothers VS ???

The man to answer the challenge: KURT ANGLE! The Olympic Gold Medalist is naturally on the guest list, but will Mahal ruin the fun for him already?

The bell rings and the Singh Brothers distract Angle. Mahal boots Angle down! Cover, TWO! Mahal keeps on Angle with elbows to the head and knees to the back. Mahal stomps Angle down then throws haymakers to put Angle in a corner. Fans rally for Angle while Mahal says Shanti. Mahal snapmares Angle to a chinlock, but Angle endures. Fans rally up and Angle feeds off the energy. Angle fights out but Mahal wrangles him back down! Cover, TWO! Mahal drives in more elbows and puts on a half nelson with chinbar. Angle endures again, and fans rally up again. Mahal puts his weight on Angle but Angle powers his way back up. Mahal throws hands but Angle counter punches! Angle gets a BIG German Suplex!

Fans fire up as Angle and Mahal are slow to standing. Angle is up first and stalks Mahal. Mahal stands, and gets another German! And then another! And the hat trick! Angle fires up and blasts the Singhs down! Mahal grabs Angle but Angle arm-drags and drop toeholds, to the Ankle Lock! Mahal taps, Angle wins!

Winner: Kurt Angle, by submission

The Singh Brothers run in but they get German Suplexes, too! The Olympic Gold Medalist still has what it takes! Will Angle make a big move on this Road to Wrestlemania?

 

It’s time for another Moment of Bliss!

The Goddess is on stage as Raw returns. Before getting started, Alexa just wants to say, “Bye, Ronda.” Don’t let the red carpet smack you on the butt on your way out. As a three-time Raw Women’s Champion, she would never have insulted the title the way Ronda did. But if the McMahons want someone to take Ronda’s place, they know where to find Alexa.

As for tonight’s episode, it will be Extraordinary, for her guest is the NEW Intercontinental Champion, Finn Balor! Finn walks out with jacket and belt as fans give him a great ovation. Alexa welcomes him to the show and he’s happy to be here. At Elimination Chamber, Finn beat both Lio Rush and Bobby Lashley to win the title. Finn must be on top of the world. But one downside is that the title covers up those great abs. Let those bad boys breath. Is Bliss trying to make him blush? Alexa makes him a deal: show off the abs, and she’ll- Here comes Lio Rush!

The Man of the Hour stares Finn down as he says “This whole talk show is a sham.” Finn doesn’t deserve that title. Bobby Lashley deserves to be champion. Finn says if Lashley wants to challenge him, then just come find him. Lashley is preparing for Braun Strowman, so for now, Finn answers to Lio. Lio won’t stop until Lashley gets that belt back. Even if it means taking it himself. Wait is Lio challenging Finn for the title? So that Lio can prove he’s better? N-no! That’s not what this is. But that’s what it sounds like. Finn isn’t sure what anyone else will say, but he believes Lio is deserving of opportunity. Finn accepts the challenge! It makes perfect sense, really. Finn pinned Lio, Lio should get the rematch.

Lio won’t let Finn stir the pot but too late. Finn asks Atlanta if they want to see Finn VS Lio, for the title, tonight? “Yes! Yes!” Alexa asks if Lio isn’t man enough to do the job himself. Lio accepts Finn’s offer! Those tighty-whities don’t make you tough! Lio wants time to prepare, but Alexa says that match is now. Fine, just give him a proper entrance. His theme plays, and Lio heads to the ring. Will the 24 Year Old Piece of Gold finally get some gold for himself?

WWE Intercontinental Championship: Finn Balor VS Lio Rush!

Raw returns as the belt is raised and the match begins! Lio and Finn circle and tie up. Finn puts Lio in a corner but Lio slips out. The chase is on as Lio redirects himself and tilt-o-whirls Finn! He adds a dropkick and covers, ONE! Lio talks trash but Finn shrugs it off. They circle again and tie up. Finn gets a headlock, and holds on as Lio tries to power out. Finn gets the takeover but Lio gets the headscissors, only for Finn to slip out. They get up, Lio handsprings and mule kicks to enziguri! Dropkick sends Finn out! Lio builds speed but Finn comes in to run him over with an elbow!

Finn stalks Lio to the ropes to stomp away. Lio bails out and Finn backs off, only for Finn to wreck Lio with a dropkick! Finn hurries to the apron, but Lio intercepts the Penalty Kick! Lio springboards to ASAI! Direct hit, but Lio keeps moving. Lio DIVES with a tope! And then AGAIN! Lio puts Finn in fast, then climbs up top. Lio leaps, Final Hour gets knees! Both men are down but Finn catches his breath and stands up. Finn stomps Lio more despite the bad knee. He puts Lio in a corner and CHOPS! Finn whips Lio corner to corner and still CHOPS again. Finn whips again but Lio goes up and over. Slingblade! Finn aims from the other end, runs, but Lio dropkicks the legs out! Finn clutches the leg but Lio is on him with stomps and an elbow drop to the knee.

Lio pulls on the leg but Finn fights back. Lio stands and stomps the leg more. Then he yanks it! Lio keeps on the knee with another toehold but fans rally for Finn. Finn kicks with his free leg, driving the knee into Lio’s back. Finn gets free but Lio is right back on him, only to get an enziguri! Both men are down while Finn clutches his leg and Lio shakes out the stars. Finn catches the kick to CHOP Lio again. Finn throws forearms into the back then drops Lio with an elbow drop DDT! He drags Lio up in a dragon sleeper, but Lio slips out of 1916 to roll Finn up! TWO, but Lio spins for a roundhouse! Cover, TWO!! Finn lives and Lio grows frustrated.

Lio sees Finn is in a drop zone so he climbs up top. Moonsault but Finn dodges! Finn clotheslines Lio off his feet! Finn sees Lio is in the drop zone and he drags himself to the corner. He climbs up now, but Lio springs up! Lio trips Finn, then throws haymakers. Lio positions Finn and climbs up to join him. SUPER STEINER, SUNSET FLIP! But Lio rolls through and stacks Finn, TWO! Lio kicks away but Finn throws forearms. Lio kicks, Finn forearms, repeat. Finn CHOPS, but Lio mule kicks the leg. Lio runs, springboards, but gets caught into the 1916! Finn hurries to the top rope, even on one leg! Finn leaps, COUP DE GRACE!! Cover, Finn wins!

Winner: Finn Balor, by pinfall; still WWE Intercontinental Champion

The Extraordinary Man proves he’s extraordinarily tough by winning on one leg! Will Lio be back for more? Will the Almighty Lashley want his own rematch? Or will someone else move up on the Road to Wrestlemania?

 

Tucker Knight encounters The Ascension.

Konnor tells Viktor they’ve got some fresh meat. But where’s the pet pig, Otis? Probably dumpster diving. Watch what you say about Dozer. He’s got a big temper. Probably not as big as his gut. Or his neck. What neck? He’s like a bowling ball on a boulder. Tucker warns them, Otis may not be smart but he is sensitive. Otis comes along and sees The Ascension. Tucker tells Otis what The Ascension says about being a pig and a bowling ball, and dumpster diving for food. Dozer SMASH! “That’s what you get for messing with Heavy Machinery!” Will everyone on Raw and SmackDown learn not to make light of these heavy hitters?

 

Bobby Lashley is furious with Lio Rush.

That was supposed to be LASHLEY’s shot, but then Lio gets it for himself. And then he loses anyway! Lio, look at him. You had one job. He can’t be worried about Lio when he has Strowman to worry about. Can he trust Lio? He can’t hear you! Can he trust Lio. Yes. Lashley’s music hits, and Lio accompanies Lashley to the ring.

Braun Strowman VS Bobby Lashley!

The Monster Among Men owes Baron Corbin’s entire pack some payback after what they did to him at Elimination Chamber. Strowman already put Corbin through a table, but what will he do to the Rocky Mountain Machine?

Lashley attacks Strowman from behind! He doesn’t let this match begin as he rams in shoulders and throws hands on the Monster. Lashley kicks a leg out then clubs away on Strowman’s back. Fans boo Lashley as he knocks Strowman down. Lashley cravats then drags Strowman to a corner to bump off buckles. Lashley throws body shots and goes to suplex, but Strowman’s just too big and strong! Strowman gourd busters Lashley instead! Strowman runs but into an elbow. Lashley runs but into a boot! Strowman runs corner to corner to squash Lashley! Then he clubs Lashley down with one hand! Fans roar with Strowman as Lashley bails out. Lio checks on Lashley, but Strowman comes out and around the corner! Strowman runs Lashley over, then comes back for Lio!

Strowman lets Lashley know that he’s coming for all three of them! Corbin got a table, and Lashley got run over! Will Drew McIntyre be the one to #GetTheseHands?

No Contest

 

Backstage interview with Seth Rollins!

The Architect has a pep in his step after hearing the fantastic news. Rollins was so obsessed with Brock Lesnar lately, and his Wrestlemania match for the Universal Championship will be his biggest ever. But tonight, that’s secondary because he has his brother back. Roman is in remission and tonight is about love and celebration. Speaking of, Roman’s probably got some ice cold beverages waiting for him. Will chilling out now help Rollins #BurnItDown later?

 

Ric Flair arrives!

The Nature Birthday Boy is here! Time to party!

 

WWE superstars visit the site where Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated.

We can only imagine today the heartbreak of losing such a great man, and can only thank him in spirit for his hard work and sacrifice.

 

No Disqualifications: Dean Ambrose VS Drew McIntyre!

The Lunatic Fringe has been in the mood for a fight, and he wants to fight the Scottish Terminator again! But with the rules thrown out the window, will Ambrose be able to get even with McIntyre?

Rollins takes care of Elias while Roman SUPERMAN PUNCHES McIntyre! SUPERMAN PUNCH for Lashley! Curb Stomp for Elias! Roman fires up and lets out the battle cry, to SPEAR McIntyre! Roman and Rollins stand tall, but they leave Ambrose to pick himself up. The Big Dog really is back, but is The Shield back? Or will it take a little more time to heal those wounds?

Happy Birthday, Ric Flair!

The cake and balloons are in the ring while the superstars are on stage. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon head to the ring to officially begin the festivities. Mondays are already hectic, but the Road to Wrestlemania amps things up. Take tonight as an example. Roman Reigns returns to his Yard, Ronda Rousey issues an ultimatum, and Becky Lynch goes rogue and then goes to jail. But all of that will pale in comparison to why we’re here now: to celebrate the 70th birthday of the greatest pro-wrestler of all time! The Nature Boy, Ric Flair! But of course a party needs guests, so Stephanie introduces Shawn Michaels! HBK makes his way to the ring, having a bit of fun with the superstars on stage.

Of course, we also need Ric’s greatest rival, Ricky “the Dragon” Steamboat! The Dragon makes his way out, and playfully chops the superstars, such as Seth Rollins. Stephanie introduces the Olympic Gold Medalist, Kurt Angle! Angle high-fives and joins in on the “You Suck!” ovation from Atlanta. And last but not least, the Icon, STING! String shakes hands with the superstars, and lets out his own howling “WOO!” to Atlanta. A lot has been said about Ric over the years, there isn’t much more to add. The kiss-stealing, wheeling-dealing, stylin’ and profilin’, limousine-riding, jet-flying sonovagun, gets a video tribute! “What’s really causing all this? I’m gonna tell ya!” Bright lights, big cities and pretty ladies on top of the historic 16 world championship reigns, “It’s time to style and profile!”

Ric Flair will always be a champion, so he will receive a custom Big Gold Belt to immortalize his career. So without much more, HHH introduces The original Man himself, Ric Flair! Fans and superstars alike applaud, but where is Ric? Wait, is that Batista?! He’s dragging a camera man along into Ric’s dressing room, only to close the door behind him! Batista drags Ric out of his dressing room!? The Animal wants to know if he has HHH’s attention. HHH hurries to the back to confront Batista, while everyone else is speechless. HHH finds Ric, along with security and officials. Batista has since disappeared, but he’s the least of anyone’s concern. HHH and the others shout for doctors, will the Nature Boy be alright?

 


 

My Thoughts:

Wow, what a great Raw! Granted, pacing felt odd but that’s because Raw’s been doing more commercials than usual. But those aside, there was so much to love about tonight. First off, Roman Reigns is in remission and that is something to truly celebrate. This result came much sooner than I’m sure anyone expected, but it’s obviously well-received. And they wasted little time getting him going again, as they tease Baron Corbin thinking Roman should stay away, and then Roman helping Rollins save Ambrose. I’m thinking that, even with Roman and Rollins leaving Ambrose behind, the Wrestlemania moment they should build to is The Shield VS Corbin’s pack, even if it’s a handicap match. Shield wins, and whether Ambrose is taking time off or leaving for good, their last Shield fist bump will make for a great send-off.

I did not expect Aleister & Ricochet VS Revival but they did pretty good. Revival loses again, which might mean Ricochet and Aleister will temporarily be a team. This builds on what NXT has them doing by seemingly taking on The Undisputed Era as a tag team. Of the four newest NXT “call-ups”, I’m pretty sure Ciampa & Gargano are the ones to get the belts. But a crazy Triple Threat would be great, Revival VS DIY VS Ricochet & Black, to really elevate those titles. Because I’m a little worried Heavy Machinery is already going down a bad path. Making Otis into a hothead when he was never that in NXT, Vince is already taking too much control of the beef.

For just a moment, I really thought that was supposed to be a Handicap Match of the entire Riott Squad VS Ronda & Natty. Honestly, what would it have changed if it was? Liv Morgan got involved either way, and then the match doesn’t even have a clean finish. Becky shows up, attacks Natty because she got in the way, and then has only a partial scrap with Ronda before “being arrested”. The Stone Cold parallels are the most apparent they’ve ever been, but it’s not necessarily bad. Ronda threatening to quit was a good move, though. This will obviously compel the McMahons to bring Becky back and we have our Triple Threat. However, the McMahons won’t have to make a move on it yet, there’s still a lot of time. I picture the McMahons trying to talk Ronda out of it, and then cave to her demands around Fastlane.

Angle finally gets a win now that he’s back! Maybe he and Strowman, being that they have issue with Corbin, McIntyre and all that, will help The Shield, or at least Roman, come Wrestlemania. The match might even start as Corbin’s Pack VS Roman, Angle & Strowman, stuff happens and Ambrose jumps in to help them, thereby reuniting Shield. Apparently, Alexa Bliss is the Goddess of Flirting. She flirted with EC3, now Finn. Finn VS Lio for the title was great, adds more to this divide between Lio and Lashley. Maybe Lio turning will be another part of Corbin’s Pack VS The Shield & Friends. Lio really should get more title shots, but for Cruiserweights, I’m not sure if he’ll win the contender’s tournament to challenge Murphy at Mania.

Bayley VS Nia was pretty good, for yet another go of this same rematch. Obviously the champions have to stay strong so Bayley wins. I would think they’d make it through Fastlane, and then either take on a SmackDown team or a legendary team for Wrestlemania. Maybe even an NXT team if they really want *cough* Sky Pirates */cough*. Honestly it’s either legends or NXT or all at once, because the SmackDown teams alone don’t have time to be built into Wrestlemania ready contenders. But to everyone’s surprise, there is a Wrestlemania story ready in Batista VS HHH. I did not expect Batista to show up and “attack” Ric Flair like that, but wow! Instant heat between them and now they can build from here to Mania.

My Score: 8.4/10

Gedo VS EVIL!

While the War Dogs won the rights to the name, “Bullet Club,” it seems the war with the House of Torture is far from over! Will The Blacksmith show he’s still got it? Or will he fail to bring down the King of Darkness?

Wait, Evil is out here, but where is Dick Togo? Wait, someone is handcuffing someone else to the entryway’s frame! Gedo has cuffed Dick to the girder! The House of Torture’s trickery has backfired! The fans applaud and Evil hurries to save Dick! Gedo lures him backstage, and attacks him with a cookie sheet! Gedo SMACKS Evil, SMACKS him again, and even has a kendo stick on his hip! Gedo SMACKS Evil again and Evil almost topples the railing over! Evil scrambles away through the crowd but Gedo pursues for more SMACKS! The Young Lions help fans get out of the way as Gedo keeps after Evil. Gedo SMACKS Evil again and they end up at the exit ramp!

Gedo throws the cookie sheet away and starts using the kendo stick! Gedo SMACKS Evil, JAMS him up, and the fans cheer Gedo on. Evil stands, only for Gedo to SMACK him again! Evil takes a Young Lion hostage but Gedo shows no mercy! Gedo JAMS the Young Lion, then SMACKS Evil down! The fans rally as Gedo pursues Evil further along, and SMACKS him again! They go around behind commentary, and Evil takes English commentary’s Walker Stewart hostage! Gedo just SMACKS Evil in the shoulder! But now Evil takes Milano Collection AT hostage!

Evil staggers away to ringside, and Gedo SMACKS him again! Gedo puts Evil in the ring, the bell finally sounds, and this is finally a match! Gedo JABS, JABS, and JABS!

The King of Evil withstands Gedo’s game plan, but now he calls out the rest of the House!

As for Despy, he shows respect to the Junior Heavyweights by raising their hands in victory, but wait! Someone else is here! It’s JUN KASAI!! Despy’s hardcore rival is here, but is very business casual as he wears the tie and has a letter. Kasai has the mic to tell Despy, “In life, some things go well, and some do not. And perhaps our lives have not always gone according to plan. But I made it a point of mine today to come here and light a fire under yer ass! June 24th, it is set! I said before that I don’t want to face the Best of the Super Juniors winner, and I don’t want to face the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion. I want to face the man that IS El Desperado!”

The fans cheer, and Kasai tells Despy that all those Triple Threats, tag team matches or whatever else, none of those wins mean a single thing to warriors like them! Kasai won’t let Despy use frustration and think he can win. Kasai received a certain invitation before, and now he has a special invite for Despy. He calls it the “Death Pain Invitational.” That is to say, he is issuing his challenge. He offers the letter, Despy accepts, and the fans applaud. These two wild ones are going to run it back one more time! Who wins out in the Death Pain Invitational at the Name Undecided event in Korakuen Hall?

 

Hirooki Goto & Ryusuke Taguchi VS Shingo Takagi & Hiromu Takahashi!

The Fierce Warrior held onto the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship through Resurgence, but that means the Rampaging Dragon is next! Will the Funky Weapon help Goto make it through to Dominion? Or will the formerly Los Ingobernables de Japon still keep things tranquilo?

The teams sort out and Goto starts against Takagi for a preview of the world title match! The fans rally as Takagi and Goto stare down. They slowly circle, tie up, and are in a deadlock. Goto powers Takagi to the ropes, the ref calls break, and Goto pats Takagi on the shoulders as he backs off. Takagi storms right back up and the two tie up again. Takagi powers Goto to ropes now, the ref calls for the break, and Takagi pretends he doesn’t understand at first. Takagi says okay, clean break, and he backs off. But then he takes a swing! Goto ducks and headlocks Takagi, but Takagi powers up and out. Goto comes back to RAM Takagi!

Takagi rebounds and he RAMS Goto! Goto rebounds and RAMS Takagi, but neither man moves this time! The fans fire up while Takagi and Goto shake that off. Goto eggs Takagi on, so the forearms start flying! They go back and forth, but not Takagi eggs Goto on! Goto fires forearm after forearm, Takagi fires back, but Goto ROCKS and whips Takagi. Takagi counters hip toss with HIP TOSS, then he RUNS Goto over! The fans fire up while Takagi shakes that off, then Takagi tags Hiromu. Hiromu & Takagi double whip Goto to DOUBLE SHOULDER TACKLE!

Taguchi kicks Hiromu away, runs, but he fakes Hiromu out! HIP- ATOMIC DROP! Hiromu says he’s too smart for that! Hiromu runs, but into a HIP ATTACK! Taguchi runs, but into a GERMAN SUPLEX! Both men are down and the fans rally up! Taguchi and Hiromu crawl, hot tags to Goto and Takagi! Takagi dodges Goto to knee low and whip him to a corner. Takagi blocks a boot to LARIAT through!

The fans fire up with Takagi, but Goto turns things around to throw forearms! Goto fires up and the fans are with him, but then Takagi turns things around to fire forearms back! Takagi has the fans with him again, and he whips corner to corner. Goto reverses, runs up, MURAMASA! Then SAIDO! Cover, TWO! The fans rally, Goto drags Takagi up, but Takagi fights the fireman’s carry. Takagi CLUBS away on Goto but Goto shoves him. Takagi ELBOWS, JABS, feints, but then he stands Goto back up to JAB again! Takagi suplexes high and hard, then covers, TWO! Goto stays in this but Takagi fires up! “TOKI GA KITA!”

The fans fire up as Takagi’s time has come! They join in on “OI! OI! OI!” and Takagi runs, PUMPING- NO, Goto LARIATS at the same time! And they DOUBLE LARIAT again! Goto swats a lariat, Takagi ELBOWS! JABS! YUKON- NO, Goto fireman’s carries! USHIGOROSHI! Both men are down and the fans fire again! Goto and Takagi crawl, hot tag to Taguchi! Taguchi BLASTS Hiromu, and now Taguchi says it is HIS TITITITITITIME! Taguchi runs in and HIP ATTACKS! And then HIP ATTACKS! And HIP ATTACKS! That’s three-ever, but Takagi CLOBBERS Taguchi before he can four-ever! Takagi winds up, runs, and- HIP ATTACK!

The fans rally while both men are down! Taguchi hurries to dropkick a leg out, then has OH MY GAH ANKLE! Goto BLASTS Hiromu off the apron, and Taguchi drops an ELBOW on Takagi’s leg! Hiromu fights past Goto to DROPKICK Taguchi! Goto LARIATS Hiromu! Takagi fires boxing elbows on Goto! Goto ROCKS Takagi back! Goto runs, but Takagi LARITS at the ropes! Takagi runs, Goto follows, but then Takagi redirects! PUMPING BOMBER! The fans fire up but Taguchi HIP ATTACKS Takagi! Taguchi runs in at the corner, Takagi dodges, and Hiromu LARIATS! Takagi LARIATS! Feed to the SUPERKICK, then PUMPING BOMBER!

The fans fire up with Takagi and he drags Taguchi up. Pump handle, torture rack, but Taguchi fights free! Taguchi shoves, HIP- NO, Takagi catches Taguchi and puts him in the ropes! Hiromu keeps Goto outside, so he can only watch as Takagi hits the DRAPING G T R!! Takagi then hauls Taguchi up, pump handle and torture rack, BURNING DRAGON!! Cover, Takagi & Hiromu win!

Winners: Shingo Takagi & Hiromu Takahashi, by pinfall

The former LIJ is still as strong as when they were LIJ, and now Takagi has all the momentum. Takagi grabs the mic to say, “OI, GOTO! I haven’t had enough! Not nearly enough! There’s no holding back at in Osaka-Jo Hall on June 15th.” The fans applaud, but then Takagi says,  “I forgot to mention something back in Fukuoka. Let me say it now.” Oh? Takagi tells Goto, “Compared to you… Yeah, I don’t have a belt. I don’t have a wife or children, either. And now, I don’t even have a faction. I’m unaffiliated. But that’s okay with me. I don’t need a family or a faction. What I want most in life is that IWGP World Heavyweight Championship!”

The fans cheer, and Takagi says he doesn’t need anything else. “At Osaka-Jo Hall, I’ll take your neck and end your Goto Revolution thing! That’s where the Takagi Revolution will begin! That’s all I have to say about that!” Takagi drops the mic, but then Goto picks it up! Goto tells Takagi, “You seem to be in a rush. You ought to try being tranquilo!” The fans cheer Goto throwing that line at Takagi. Goto continues by saying, “At Osaka-Jo Hall, just try and stop my Goto Revolution! That’s all I have to say about that.” In just two weeks, The Fierce Warrior and the Rampaging Dragon will battle, but whose revolution wins this Dominion?

 

Best of the Super Juniors 32 Finals: Kosei Fujita w/ TMDK VS YOH!

After nine rounds of wrestling, this is the moment of truth! The Japanese Young Punk made it through A Block while Direct Drive was able to seal the deal in B Block. They both want everything there is in the Junior Heavyweight Division, but only one can have it all! Who proves that they are the Best of the Super Juniors?

The bell rings and the fans rally up already. The “YO-OH! YO-OH!” and “FU-JI-TA! FU-JI-TA!” seem even as the two circle. They feel things out, clinch, then Fujita waistlocks. Yoh pries at the grip, wrenches free to wristlock, but Fujita rolls, handsprings, and wrenches to wristlock in return. Yoh rolls to trip Fujita and have the toehold. Fujita fights around to get an arm, but Yoh stacks Fujita! ONE, and Fujita keeps the arm. Yoh slips through to a lateral press but Fujita keeps his shoulders up. Yoh shifts to have the arm, then he wrenches to headlock and takeover. Fujita headscissors, Yoh kips free, and the fans cheer this opening exchange.

The two reset, circle, and the fans rally again. The two tie up, are in a deadlock at center, and Fujita digs his heels in to power Yoh to ropes. Red Shoes calls the break, Fujita lets off, but Yoh turns things around. Yoh lets off slowly, but then whips. Yoh drops down, bypasses, and drop toeholds! Fujita avoids the basement dropkick, Yoh avoids the Penalty Kick, then he ducks a heel kick! Fujita avoids the lariat, Yoh avoids the backhand, and Yoh ripcords, but Fujita dodges the Rainmaker! The fans cheer that Yoh would even attempt that! Yoh grins and he goes forehead to forehead with Fujita. Fujita eggs Yoh on, so the forearms start flying!

The fans rally and Fujita CHOPS! Fujita CHOPS again, then CHOPS again! Yoh goes to ropes, Fujita whips, but Yoh backs up to avoid the chop! Yoh calls for the break but Fujita isn’t even touching him! The fans rally for Yoh all the same, and Fujita storms up. Fujita blocks a kick to CHOP, but then Yoh throws Fujita down by his hair! “Y! O! H!” Shrug! The fans cheer as Yoh continues to reference his Chaos senpai. Yoh drags Fujita up, CLUBS him on the neck, then stalks him to a corner. Yoh wrenches and whips, runs up, and ELBOWS! Yoh then reels Fujita in but Fujita wrenches, drop toeholds, and wants the legs!

Yoh scrambles out of the ring and the fans cheer. Fujita storms up to the ropes, Yoh avoids the Plancha but Fujita is on the apron! Fujita then PENALTY KICKS Yoh, and ASAI MOONSAULTS! He didn’t even need to springboard for that! The fans fire up with Fujita and he drags Yoh back up. Fujita puts Yoh in the ring, slides in and storms up on Yoh in the corner. Fujita CHOPS, snapmares, and PENALTY KICKS! Cover, TWO! The fans rally again while Fujita paces. Fujita grabs a leg, and he turns Yoh over for the HALF CRAB! Yoh endures as Fujita pulls the leg back!

Yoh wrenches for the ELBOW BREAKER again! Fujita clutches the arm but Yoh shakes his head. Yoh wrenches for his odd rhythm! “Y O H! Y O H! Y O O O, O O H!” Then he WRINGS Fujita out! Cover, TWO! Fujita is tougher than that but Yoh stays focused. The fans rally while Yoh scuffs Fujita and kicks him towards ropes. Fujita slumps to the floor and Yoh watches him stir.

Winner: Kosei Fujita, by pinfall (Best of the Super Juniors 32 winner)

Yoh showed Fujita true Chaos, but not even that was able to make the mighty kneel! If fighting this hard only gets Yoh second place, how much harder must he fight to be the best?

As for Fujita, the banner is brought in as the official announcement is made. The trophy is presented by Tadahiro Sekiguchi, president of the BOSJ 32 sponsor, Sekichu. Fujita poses for the photo ops, then is presented with the banner by Sekichu director, Ken Dojima. They shake hands and pose for another photo op. Trophy and banner are put aside a moment while Fujita grabs the mic. The fans chant for Fujita while he catches his breath. Fujita then says, “Who’s talking about the future of NJPW?! Without a doubt, I’m at the center of the Juniors!” The fans cheer that!

Fujita continues by saying, “There’s always criticism when you try to do something new. However, don’t hesitate. Give me your true feelings. I’ll even take the negative feedback. But most of all, I’m asking you all to come pack the buildings.” The fans cheer that, too. Fujita says he might be repeating himself, but he’ll take both hope and hate. How about it? Isn’t the NJPW Junior Division awesome? The fans do cheer that, too. Fujita says he’ll take us all to even higher peaks. Please, leave it to him! He just become the youngest ever Super Juniors winner! He was able to endure because he could feel everyone behind him, so he thanks the fans for that.

The fans applaud, and Fujita says, “Don’t you dare take your eyes off me.” Mic drop and the streamers fly as Fujita stands with his trophy and banner. TMDK celebrates with their Japanese Young Punk, getting their own photo op with it. Next stop: The IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship! If The Mighty Don’t Kneel, will the only thing left be for them to reign?


My Thoughts:

A great finale to BOSJ 32, but also some great builds towards Dominion in a couple weeks. While I skimmed, I did like the fun everyone had in the 8 Man Tag, including ELP and Nick Wayne doing a photo op where they traded belts. Gedo VS Evil was great stuff for everything Gedo did beforehand, but I had a feeling Evil would find a way to win. The main thing was that the House of Torture beat down Gedo and the other War Dogs, and clearly sent a message with the dog collar to Finlay. Finlay VS Evil in a Dog Collar Match will be great stuff, but I sadly anticipate the House just getting involved again. Kinda defeats the purpose of the dog cage match, but I guess that was just about the literal title of Bullet Club, not a real blowoff…

Great Six Man Tag, great win for Tanahashi’s team, and great surprise appearance by Jun Kasai. Their “Death Pin Invitational” will be a wild match, we all know it. And as it stands, I like how the name for that event is “Name Undecided.” A part of me hopes they keep it that way for the fun of it. Great tag of Takagi & Hiromu VS Goto & Taguchi, but I figured Taguchi would take the loss. Takagi has momentum going into the title match, but that makes me think Goto finds a way to retain. I just don’t know what Takagi could do when he’s been world champion before and, as he put it, has no faction. Lone wolves are rare in NJPW so I don’t see such a wrestler being their top champ.

And awesome main event, Yoh bringing out the Chaos moves was a nice touch. But a great move making it Fujita. Fujita has been going strong for a long time, and also Yoh has the tag title so he and Wato can focus on that while Fujita focuses on Despy. There was tease of ZSJ wanting the NJPW World TV Championship back, maybe TMDK start getting the midcard titles, and then the G1 helps figure out a contender for the world title.

My Score: 9/10

Komander cost Claudio his title opportunity then, will he do it again now? Or will nothing stop this Death Rider from going after Kenny Omega’s gold?

The fans count along, Claudio TOSSES Komander at seven! The fans boo, they wanted a longer swing, but Claudio kicks Komander to the outside. Claudio soaks up heat from El Paso as he SMACKS Komander off barriers! And then CHOPS him!

Komander staggers away but Claudio is right on him for a CHOP! Claudio whips Komander into the riling, refreshes the ring count, and storms back up on Komander. The fans chant “SI SE PUEDES!” and Komander fires CHOP after CHOP! Komander kicks but Claudio KNEES low! Claudio hits a BARRIER BACK SUPLEX! Komander flops down.

Komander tried to fly higher and higher, but he only came crashing down to Earth! Will Claudio follow in Moxley’s footsteps and become a champion?

 

AEW shares footage from after Dynamite.

Prince Nana talked with Swerve Strickland about the Ospreay and Hangman situation, and Renee Paquette walks over to ask them about that. Can he work with Ospreay and Hangman to finally bring down the Death Riders? Swerve says he is going to clear up this misconception. He owned up to what he did, he said he deserved what happened. But that doesn’t make them friends or a team, and they never will be. But then Ospreay barges in and says he has his own question: Who is the bigger threat to AEW? The Death Riders? Or Hangman Page? The only time Swerve was beefing with Hangman was because they both wanted the same opportunities. Tell Ospreay he’s lying.

Swerve had the world title! He did it! He became AEW’s first Black world champion! And he wore that title with pride! But is Swerve happy that Moxley’s stuck it in some briefcase? Because Ospreay isn’t. Ospreay says that belt should be around the best wrestler in the world right now, and right now that is Hangman! Swerve says, “No, it’s not.” Swerve has beat Hangman twice. But did Swerve beat Moxley? Has Ospreay beat Swerve? Swerve says the truth hurts, don’t it? But this team Ospreay is trying to put together to go against the Death Riders, Swerve just did that at Double or Nothing, Anarchy in the Arena, Swerve is done with that.

Swerve says Ospreay is delusional, but Ospreay won’t let Swerve leave because he’s not done talking. Swerve shoves Ospreay, so Ospreay hits back! They brawl right in the parking lot! Swerve sends Ospreay into railing, Ospreay comes back for ore! Ospreay says they are on the same team, whether Swerve likes it or not! Will Swerve, Ospreay, Hangman, and the rest of the roster put their personal history aside to finally and truly save the soul of AEW?

 

Six Man Tag: Roppongi Vice & Konosuke Takeshita w/ The Don Callis Family VS Roderick Strong, Kyle O’Reilly & Tomohiro Ishii!

After the confrontation during the TNT Championship match, Paragon battles RPG Vice, but with some added names to the mix! RPG Vice brings in NEVER Openweight Champion, Konosuke Takeshita, while Roddy & Kyle conglomerate with NJPW Strong Openweight Champion, Tomohiro Ishii! Could this Six Man Tag open some doors to more golden opportunities?

The Don Callis Family doesn’t wait for anything, they just go after Ishii & Paragon! The fans boo but Konosuke THROWS Ishii into railing! RPG Vice beat up on Paragon, and they throw Roddy out so they can mug Kyle! The fans boo more but Rocky slides to do his soccer celebration. Trent then PLANCHAS, but Kyle KNEES him outta the air!

AEW Continental Championship Eliminator: Kazuchika Okada VS Anthony Bowens!

From one title opportunity to another, The Rainmaker moves on through the roster after successfully retaining at Double or Nothing. But now, the Pride of Professional Wrestling steps up to the plate! Will this be a homerun for the 5 Tool Player? Or will it take more than just Bowens’ combination of power, athleticism, intelligence, the look, and The It Factor to earn a golden ticket?

The bell rings and the fans cheer already as Bowens and Okada circle. They tie up, are in a deadlock, but Okada’s height gives him the leverage to put Bowens on ropes. The ref counts, Okada lets off, and he fakes the chop to pat Bowens on the shoulder. The fans applaud and Bowens does admit that’s clever. The two reset, circle, and tie up. Bowens digs his heels in and now he pushes Okada back with that power! The ref counts again, and Bowens fakes the chop to throw up the scissors. The fans are torn but Okada shoves Bowens. Bowens shoves back! Bowens wants Okada to wrestle, but Okada kicks low.

Bowens goes out and storms up on Okada to CHOP! Okada ROCKS Bowens! Bowens ROCKS Okada!

Okada paces, then he goes back into the ring. Bowens drags himself up as the count hits 5 of 10. Bowens leans on railing, hobbles his way back to the ring, and slides in at 8! Okada is right on Bowens for a NECKBREAKER! Cocky cover, ONE!! Bowens is tougher than that, but Okada isn’t bothered as he stalks Bowens to a corner. Okada CHOPS, but Bowens snarls. Bowens fires forearms, but Okada ROCKS him in return! Okada whips corner to corner, runs in, and ELBOWS Bowens! Bowens staggers and falls, and Okada pushes him to a cover. TWO, but Okada stays calm as he clamps on with a chinlock. Bowens endures as Collision goes to break.

Collision returns as Okada brings Bowens up to scoop and SLAM! Okada goes to the corner, climbs up, and MACHO ELBOWS! The fans fire up as Okada winds it up, and we get the Rainmaker MIDDLE FINGER!

Okada pops Bowens up for the REVERSE NECKBREAKER!

The fans rally up again while Okada scowls. Okada clamps on with the MONEY CLIP! “This is Awesome!” as Bowens endures! Bowens fights up, RAMS Okada into a corner, and he is free! Bowens CHOPS, but Okada just gets mad. Okada BOOTS Bowens, CLUBS away on Bowens at the ropes, but the ref counts. Okada stops, but Bowens BOOTS! And CHOPS, CHOPS, CHOPS! Bowens kicks low, HAMMERS and CLUBS away on Okada, then CLUBS him down! The fans fire up with Bowens, he goes to a corner and runs up, but Okada ducks the lariat!

The Rainmaker continues to be undefeated not just in 2025 but as the Continental Champion. Will anyone ever slow Okada down? Bowens came close, what more will it take for him to be a contender?

 

Backstage interview with Daniel Garcia & Matt Menard.

Lexy Nair is with Red Death & Daddy Magic, and asks after that tough loss to FTR at Double or Nothing, what is next for Garcia? Garcia says a tough loss is an understatement. That was one of the hardest tag matches- Menard cuts Danny off there. Menard wants Garcia to think. Garcia has been moving around this whole week. Garcia wants others to fight his battles for him, but what did he think was gonna happen? Is that the first match he’s ever lost? Does Garcia think it’ll be the last? Don Callis interrupts Menard’s rant to ask, “Is this your version of an inspirational speech?” Then he asks Garcia, “What’re you doing with this guy?”

Garcia says Menard is his mentor. Oh, wow, [Censored] Magic is his mentor? Callis says Garcia is a Lamborghini. If you need to tune the Lamborghini up, you don’t take it to someone who’s never been under the hood, you take it to the number one mechanic, and that’s Don Callis. Garcia should join the family, instead of listening to this. Menard says let’s ask Kenny Omega or Will Ospreay how good of a “mentor” Callis is, huh? Garcia says he is sick of old men telling him how to do his career. Garcia tells Callis to get his “boiled hot dog looking ass” out of his face. Archer gets heated, but Callis has him stand down.

Callis says Garcia is right about one thing: he is an old man; a RICH, SUCCESSFUL old man! But the Family wants volunteers, not hostages. He is just asking Garcia to do something he hasn’t been doing for awhile, and that is think. Callis leaves Garcia to think on this offer, will the answer still be no?

 

Tony Schiavone is in the ring.

Collision returns and Schiavone welcomes us back, and he also says this has been a great crowd in El Paso. The fans cheer, and Schiavone says the fans all around the world, please welcome out… FTR. The fans boo now as Cash Wheeler, Dax Harwood & Stokely Hathaway make their way out to the ring. Their win at Double or Nothing has made them THE winningest tag team in AEW history, and Nigel on commentary says he learned just how good they are. He just hopes FTR holds up their end of the agreement to just leave commentary alone. Stokely still rudely takes the mic from Schiavone, and he excuses Schiavone back to the desk.

Stokely says, “Sunday at Double or Nothing, FTR proved once again that they are the greatest tag team alive today.” The fans boo, but Stokely says FTR proved they are indeed Living Legend Killers, and more importantly, they proved they are right about Nigel McGuinness. Behind that commentary desk is where he belongs! They give Nigel an A for effort but a D for execution. But Stokely moves on from that. They are in El Paso, Texas! That Mexican border is just a hop, skip and a jump away. And FTR, out of the goodness of their hearts, because they are good guys, have issued an open challenge to any tag team south of the border!

Stokely has the full terms of that contract right here! He hands it to Cash to hold for him, and Stokely reads it. “Andale, andale, mami, eya eya OOOOH~! What’s poppin’ tonight?” But wait! Atlantis Jr. is here! The fans fire up as he and Templario of CMLL make their way to the ring! The luchadores are ready to go right here and now, but FTR has them back up. Cash says they respect both men so much. They are big fan of Atlantis’ father, a huge legend in lucha libre! But what everyone might know is that FTR are living lucha legends themselves. See, they had gold down in how you say, “Mehico,” and well…

They’ve been “Seven Star FTR’ for a little too long. Maybe they become Eight Stars? Maybe they go to CMLL and add that gold? These two can be a nice little warm-up for that! Dax says hold on, hold on. Does this mic work? Dax claims it isn’t good enough for him, so he gets a new mic. Dax says there is no issue here. He is Dax, nice to meet you. That’s Cash, that’s Big Stoke, but the fans say they’re really “CULERO~! CULERO~!” Dax says hold on, hold on. FTR are really big stars in the USA. Everywhere they go, people recognize them. Maybe now that AEW and CMLL have their joint show on June 18th, Arena Mexico, Dax needs to get to know them.

So the first question is, FTR is big in USA, but how does it feel being recognized by your countrymen? Dax pulls the usual interrupting shtick, because he says the “Mighty Morphing Power Ranger” masks keep people from knowing who they are! The next question is, in Arena Mexico, Grand Slam, HUGE conglomeration between their companies, what would their dream match be? Because Dax is pretty sure that has to be with a big star team, like FTR! Unfortunately, Tony Khan has bigger plans than that for FTR, so they can’t wrestle Atlantis y Templario. But again. big fan of Atlantis Sr, the OG. He’s had great matches as a FIVE-TIME CMLL World Tag Team Champoin.

And even still today, Atlantis Sr, at 62 years old, is still wrestling! Impressive! Can Dax send a message to him? Please tell your dad, “Keep your old ass at home and not mess with FTR.” The fans boo but Atlantis Jr. takes the mic! Atlantis says his dad isn’t here to defend himself, but Atlantis Jr. is! If FTR wants to say something, then just say it, PERRO! FTR wants the CMLL guys to calm down, they don’t want trouble. This is all about AEW and CMLL teaming up. The fans still let FTR have it, but then FTR sucker punch the luchadores! The fans boo as they get Templario up! But Atlantis GAMANGIRIS Cash off the corner!

Atlantis climbs, Templario gets free, CROSSBODY onto Dax! Templario uses Atlantis as a step to launch and DROPKICK Cash! The fans fire up as Atlantis runs, get a boost, and he DOUBLE DROPKICKS FTR! The fans fire up and then Templario FOSBURY FLOPS out onto the #TopGuys! Atlantis tells FTR, you do NOT disrespect his familia! These two are the stars of lucha, so see you very soon, because they are gonna kick your ass!! The fans fire up for that one! When and where will the second generation sensation and the Lion Warrior show FTR what lucha is all about?

Max Caster met with fans today.

It was the AEW All Elite Experience in El Paso that Platinum Max tried to teach fans his chant: Let’s Go, Max! You’re the Best Wrestler Alive! Some picked up on it, but it seemed like most didn’t care. Caster says that’s right! They love him! Now, anyone who wants pictures is welcome, but he needs them to sign his petition to make AEW recognize him as THE Best Wrestler Alive. Is that okay with everyone? The fans seem okay with that, and they sign up. Caster has the fans line up, then he runs for it! He just wanted the signatures! Will someone, anyone, ever humble him?

The ungovernable trio takes the win, and perhaps now they take the lead in the title chase. But Rush isn’t done, he grabs his favorite green cables! He LASHES Darius, CHOKES him, and the ref reprimands! LFI mugs Darius, but here comes Speedball & Komander! The fans fire up as Bailey SUPERKICKS Mortos and Komander brawls with Dralistico! Rush lets Darius go so he can brawl with Bailey, but Mortos is back! The 3v2 goes LFI’s way, but Fox and Dante are back! Now it’s 5v2! LFI is sent into retreat, what will this mean for the title chase for the Summer?

 

Mark Briscoe speaks.

“Wednesday night, Mixed Six Tag Team match, and I took the L. Jon Moxley, you caught me in your little bulldog choke, ref called for the bell, ding ding ding. It happened. Now, Thursday, my five-year-old son comes up to me when I get home, and he said, ‘Daddy, did you quit last night?’ I said, ‘Son, no, I did not quit. I would never quit. You win some and you lose some in life, but you never quit, and I did not quit!’ But you see the predicament I’m in now, as my kids are doubting me. Mox, I want you one on one, Denver, Dynamite. This ain’t about that title you got. This is about something bigger than that for me.

“So I’m have to line the kids up in front of the TV, and they gonna watch me whoop a man’s ass! So Mox, you better be ready to man up!” The Sussex County Chicken is ready to run wild, but will he tear down the Maniac AEW World Champion for Fyter Fest?

AEW International Championship Fatal 4 Way Qualifier: Mascara Dorada VS Hechicero!

Brody King qualified on Wednesday, and Claudio qualified earlier tonight. One represents the USA, the other represents Switzerland, and Kenny Omega represents Canada as the champion. Mexico will have a contender, but will it be the Second King of the Ropes or the Alchemist of Lucha that joins the Fyter Fest Fatal 4?

The bell rings and the two circle. Dorada offers a handshake, Hechi reaches out, and he tentatively takes it. The two circle, then Hechi slides to dazzle with his magic. The two knuckle lock, Hechi wrenches and wrangles Dorada fast. Dorada fights up, wrenches back, but Hechi spins and slips through to break free. The fans cheer, and the two reset.

Hchi then runs past, but Dorada ducks a lariat. Dorada hurdles, only for Hechi to catch him in a FLAPJACK! Hechi clamps onto legs, CHOPS Dorada on the back, and he has the arms!

The fans cheer as Hechi pulls Dorada into the ROMERO SPECIAL! Dorada endures, fights to get his arms free, and he stands on Hechi’s legs! Dorada turns things around on Hechi to have the legs, then the arms! Up, up, and away into the ROMERO SPECIAL! The fans cheer, but now Hechi fights free! Hechi rolls Dorada to pull him around by an arm. A bit of a stumble but Hechi still whips Dorada, blows past, and then slides out! Dorada runs to slide out, but Hechi slides in!

And there you have it! The Golden Mask 2 is now part of a golden opportunity! Will Dorada take the title from Kenny? Will it be Brody or Claudio instead? Or will the Best Bout Machine find a way to still be champion?


My Thoughts:

A great episode of Collision, even with it being prerecorded and then further delayed because of NBA Playoffs. A lot of last minute build to Fyter Fest, and I don’t even mean the qualifiers. Both qualifiers were awesome, and while I figured Claudio would win against Komander, I’m pleasantly surprised Mascara Dorada beat Hechicero in a great main event. That’s now technically three Faces and one Heel for the Fatal 4 Way, and just for the sake of story, I would hope the Death Riders don’t get more gold. They need to stay desperate about holding onto THE AEW World Championship while the proverbial walls are closing in.

Speaking of which, great promo from Mark Briscoe to call out Moxley, and they are going to have a great match, even with no title stakes on the line. And also a very good promo from Swerve with Ospreay to add their own tensions to this team-up story. Swerve doesn’t want to work with Hangman, he wants Ospreay to back off, but Ospreay is the one speaking sense again. Ospreay, Hangman and Swerve are the big 3 in terms of Faces, and then, whenever Darby Allin returns, that is quite the fearsome four to take on the Death Riders.

But the “last minute” stuff is the other tag matches they made for that HUGE four hour show. Mina of course beat Skye Blue, and I should’ve figured Julia would show up. Good save from Toni, and they’ll have a good tag match that I would think Toni & Mina win. Unless Mone gets involved, because she will be there on commentary. Great Six Man Tag of LFI VS Fox & Top Flight, and a very good win for LFI. Speedball & Komander making the save was good stuff, and I appreciate Kevin Knight will be joining in since he’ll be back from Japan by Wednesday.

Gates of Agony of course win their match, and I do feel they need another chance back to the tag titles. FTR had a very good promo with Atlantis y Templario, and that tag match could be a show stealer. It really should also lead into something bigger for Grand Slam: Mexico. FTR did mention they want tag titles, and the CMLL World Tag Team Champions are Los Nuevos Ingobernables, aka the NEW Ungovernables, Angel de Oro y Niebla Roja. I wonder if they’ll interact with LFI at all…

Great Six Man Tag of Don Callis Family VS Ishii & Paragon, but I figured the Family would win. Konosuke pinning Ishii really should lead to Konosuke challenging for the NJPW Strong title at either the next NJPW event in America, or even through AEW. Good promo from Garcia with Menard and Callis. Menard is being a bit harsh on Garcia, but I would hope Garcia doesn’t join up with the Callis Family. I’m just not sure how well Garcia fairs in a feud against them when his backup is sadly just Daddy Magic while the Callis Family has the most members it has ever had.

Hilarious promo from Caster where he is really trying hard with this Best Wrestler Alive thing, but in a new direction. I’m sure he’ll try getting fellow wrestlers to sign that, only to get beat up like with his Open Challenge. And an awesome match from Okada VS Bowens, even with it just being an Eliminator. Okada still wins as there might still be pans of Okada VS Omega, Winner Takes All, but Okada’s gotta have someone at least challenge him along the way. If nothing else, test the waters of what a 20 minute draw does for the eliminator and give someone a shot at the Continental Championship for the FOUR HOUR “Summer Blockbuster” on June 11th.

My Score: 8.8/10
