Winner: Rey Fenix, by pinfall
INCREDIBLE! There was no ring rust when it comes to being singles wrestlers, this was an amazing match! But in the end, Fenix still has more singles experience in the year 2019 so that was his advantage. And there is no hard feelings for Nick, he offers a handshake. But Fenix rejects it? Well in the end, Fenix won and keeps going strong for both himself and his brother, Pentagon. Will the Lucha Brothers climb back up towards a rematch for the AEW World Tag Team Championships?
Britt Baker VS Hikaru Shida!
The Doctor is in Indy, and she is on a roll! However, so is the samurai of Stardom. Ranked the #1 and #2 contenders, Britt and Shida would both love another match with Riho for THE AEW Women’s World Championship. But who will come out THE one most likely to get it?
The bell rings and Baker circles with Shida. They tie up and go around, but then break. Fans cheer how even the two are already, and Baker circles with Shida again. They tie up and Baker headlocks.

What is the Dark Order all about?
A man walks alone in a subway terminal. Another man bumps him and makes him drop his glasses. Then a third man purposefully steps on those glasses, and mockingly says, “I’m sorry.” The bullies walk away and laugh. The man picks up his broken glasses. He gets on the subway and sits down. “Are you tired of being overlooked?” A video that plays speaks to those who feel alone. “Experience freedom like you’ve never felt before.” Before you can find yourself, you must lose yourself. “By joining us, you’ll become part of something bigger.” They promise to be your friends and biggest supporters. Think of them as that “exclusive club” you’ve always wanted to be part of. Stop losing. Become one of us. Stop living in chaos. Bring in a new order. The Dark Order. All you have to do is post #JOINDARKORDER, and they’ll find you.
Dynamite Dozen Battle Royale!
Twelve men in AEW who are looking for a huge opportunity will now do battle until only two remain in the ring! Those two then move on to next week’s Dynamite in Chicago, and will battle over the brand new Dynamite Diamond Ring. The lucky dozen are: Hangman Adam Page; Chuckie T; Orange Cassidy; Kip Sabian with Penelope Ford by his side; Jimmy Havoc; Jungle Boy; “Babysaurus” Marko Stunt; Pentagon with Fenix; Sonny Kiss; Joey Janela; Maxwell Jacob Freeman; and Billy Gunn! Wait, that’s not Fenix! That’s CHRISTOPHER DANIELS! He fools Pentagon again! The bell rings, Daniels ducks Pentagon’s punch, and Chuckie T dumps Pentagon out! Chuckie T ELIMINATES Pentagon! And from here, the remaining 11 brawl it out!
Cassidy moves out of the way of all the fighting, it’s not really his speed. Superbad Sabian sees him and heads over, but Cassidy easily dodges, sending Sabian out but through the middle and top rope. Sabian stays in the match, and then Chuckie dumps Janela through the middle rope. The Bad Boy is also safe, and Cassidy opens ropes for Chuckie to DIVE onto Sabian! Gunn whips Sonny but Sonny rolls off his back to twerk! Well Gunn is an ass man. Gunn wants to show off his buns? MJF ELIMINATES Sonny! Gunn is upset, but MJF tells the old man to relax. Sabian and Havoc and all the others go after the big Gunn! But he EXPLODES out! Gunn rocks Havoc and ELIMINATES Havoc with a clothesline! Stunt hops on but Gunn is barely bothered. Gunn bucks Stunt off and ELIMINATES him!
Havoc comes back illegally, and with a staple gun! He starts stapling Gunns’ stomach and groin! The absolute madman! Havoc staples Janela’s head! And Jungle Boy’s foot! And Chuckie’s balls! And Sabian’s hand! And Gunn’s forehead! The referees finally get in the ring as fans chant “You Sick F***!” The refs get the “Sick F***” out of the ring, but fans boo. The remaining wrestlers in the ring take a moment to compose themselves, and AEW will return after the break.
AEW returns and Sabian stomps down Chuckie and Cassidy. Jungle Boy clings to the post on the outside while Gunn and Hangman are down in other corners. MJF helps Superbad keep them all down with stomps. And for those wondering what happened to the Bad Boy, AEW shows us that during the break, The Chair Man attacked Janela again, and with a chair! Janela fell off the top rope, so he is eliminated as well as hurt. But Bad Girl Penelope Ford is cheering Superbad as he CHOPS Gunn. But Gunn gets mad, and pushes Sabian down! He ROCKS Hangman, Chuckie, MJF, Jungle Boy, and Sabian with heavy rights! BUt the Sloth rises! Fans fire up as Cassidy puts his hands in his pockets! Cassidy shin kicks! And shin kicks! And again! And then… MJF ELIMINATES Cassidy! MJF mocks the fans, but backs up into Gunn. Gunn warns MJF that was twice already, but MJF slaps his hand away! And shoves Gunn!
Gunn says “SUCK IT!” and then hits a FAMOUSER! Fans are thunderous as Gunn throws MJF out. But MJF skins the cat! Gunn storms over and drags MJF up by his face, but here comes WARDLOW! Gunn dares MJF’s muscle to do something, but MJF pokes Gunn in the eyes! BUCKSHOT from Hangman! Hangman ELIMINATES Gunn! Indy has a mixed reaction, but this is every man for himself, after all. Wardlow circles the ring as Hangman fires off! Hangman boots Sabian, decks Jungle Boy and spins Chuckie T around for a LARIAT! Hangman runs corner to corner but gets a Sexy Chuckie Knee! But Hangman still whips Chuckie at Sabian. Sabian puts Chuckie outside, but Chuckie forearms him and Hangman away. Sabian returns but is sent into buckles. Chuckie goes to get in but Penelope grabs his feet, Sabian’s triangle enziguri ELIMINATES Chuckie T!
Penelope gives Sabian a kiss, but Jungle Boy runs in to LEAPING Huricanrana and ELIMINATE Sabian! JB skins the cat to stay in, but he has just Hangman! Wait, these two aren’t the last two, MJF didn’t get eliminated! He YANKS JB off to ELIMINATE him! NOW we have our final two!
Winners: MJF and Hangman Page
Hangman rushes MJF for being a weasel, but MJF hits back! Wardlow gets up on the apron as referees hurry to keep this from breaking down! Fans want to “Let Them Fight!” but MJF always does what fans don’t want, so he leaves. Wardlow takes some convincing, but he leaves with his boss. When AEW arrives in Chicago, will Hangman be able to do some #RealCowboyShit to the self-proclaimed new face of AEW?
Chris Jericho walks backstage with Jake Hager.
Le Champeon mocks The Librarians, Peter Avalon and Leva Bates, as he and his savage pass by. They give Avalon a hard hat just in case. Jericho tosses their books around, not finding the value in any of them. Then Jericho and Hager move on, inspecting all the things lying around. They find broken hockey sticks, and then Jericho talks crap to a few other AEW wrestlers he comes across. Brandon Cutler and Mark Stunt, specifically. Something about Stunt’s hair and nipples? Jericho laughs as he mocks little Marko, but dares him to do something about it. AEW goes to break as Jericho continues talking down to the shortest wrestler in the company.
Chris Jericho heads to the ring!
AEW returns and Le Champeon has stopped berating the boys in the back to stand before Indianapolis! Jericho has a mic and tells Indy to sit down and shut up for his announcement. Fans boo instead. Jericho continues on to say that before his announcement, he wants to talk about his “temper tantrum” over his first loss. He was fined, and he admits the conduct was not what a true champion should show, certainly not of Le Champeon. Jericho says he’s “sossoss…” He is sincerely “sooosooo…” Jericho tells “Big Hurt” Hager to say it. “He says he’s sorry.” And to show just how sorry he is, Jericho’s announcement is for next week, AEW Chicago, he will get the “Thank you” that he rightfully deserves! He will finally be told “Thank you” by AEW executives, TNT executives and all of the fans watching around the world!
And to again say he is very sorry, the celebration will be in Chicago, not here in Indy. Chicago has a hockey team and two baseball teams, so it’s just a better town. Indy can watch from home as Dynamite hosts Jericho’s Thanksgiving Thank You Celebration for Le Champion! The greatest celebration in wrestling history! Games, prizes, and aquarium and maybe a clown. So again, so sorry it won’t be in this dump known as Indy, but he’ll still be looking good on their television. Adieu and good night.
But wait! Here comes SCU! And naturally, Scorpio Sky leads the way after having pinned Jericho himself last week. SCU joins Jericho and Hager in the ring, and Indy chants “SCU! SCU!” Jericho tells them to shut up but it gets louder. Scorpio says it is truly admirable. It takes a “paragon of virtue” to come out and apologize for what he’s done wrong. But… Jericho forgot why he threw that tantrum! Not only did SCU successfully defend the AEW World Tag Team Championships, Scorpio pinned Jericho for his first AEW loss. Fans love the sound of that! Scorpio has to admit, that was one of the greatest moments of his night! His DM’s are blowing up! Even his high school crush, Melanie Parsons, called, and they’re going out next week! And all thanks to Jericho! Scorpio is thanking and apologizing to Jericho. Scorpio is a big fan, he didn’t want to embarrass him.
Jericho says he wasn’t embarrassed. Also he knows Scorpio’s crush, Melanie put on a lot of weight since high school. Scorpio likes big butts and he cannot lie. Jericho thinks it’s “cuter than baby Yoda” that Scorpio thinks he really beat Jericho. Scorpio is a tag team specialist, a tag team champion, but he is not in Jericho’s lead. Jericho is the greatest of all time and will say this right now. Scorpio may have put a blemish on Jericho’s record, and they will have their singles rematch so Jericho can correct that, and then Jericho will wipe the floor with Scorpio. Daniels wants Jericho to keep his cool. This is a generous offer, but there needs to be time to prepare. A training camp, even, for a month or so. This isn’t a “next week” kind of thing. Oh really? No, one week! It has to be next week, because it will be the exclamation point on the Thanksgiving Thank You Celebration! One-on-one, Jericho VS Scorpio, in Chicago!
But if the match is happening, then it surely won’t be for the title. We all know how azy-cray Ericho-Jay gets over his itle-tay. Yeah, Scorpio doesn’t deserve that title match. Jericho agrees, he doesn’t deserve it. But what if it was a title match?! Scorpio doesn’t think he can handle Jericho for the title?! Well then it’s for the title! Jericho VS Scorpio, AEW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP! They shake hands, making it official. Gotcha. “You may not think I have a chance, but maybe I’ve been waiting 15 years for an opportunity just like this.” And then maybe next week, Scorpio wins to turn Le Champeon into Le Betch! Jericho and Hager brawl with SCU! But here come the rest of the Inner Circle, Sammy Guevara and Proud ‘n’ Powerful! They beat SCU down, and then have handcuffs!
The Inner Circle chains up Daniels and Kaz to ropes! Scorpio gets Hager’s knee in his chest, but here comes Michael Nakazawa and Brandon Cutler! They get knocked down fast! Then Hager feeds Scorpio to the JUDAS EFFECT! Le Champeon stands tall now, but here comes Marko Stunt! The littlest man runs in, only to get SMASHED by the belt! Jungle Boy hurries after Stunt and he dodges Jericho to throw forearms! Jericho clotheslines Jungle Boy back! But Luchasaurus shows up! Only Hager stays to face him! Fans are thunderous for this Godzilla VS King Kong type stare down! Hager tosses the watch away, but then decides not to fight. The Inner Circle take their leave, but will Jericho arrive in Chicago only to leave Le Former Champeon?
Peter Avalon w/ Leva Bates VS Luchasaurus!
As they make their way down the ramp, The Librarians hush Indy, as is their way. But with the mood the dominate dinosaur-human hybrid is in, will Avalon be the one silenced?
Avalon says it is good to have Luchasaurus back at full health. Life has found a way. But Avalon is still going to turn this fossil into motor oil! The bell rings, Avalon takes his time taking off his robe, and he falls for the feint to get the ROUNDHOUSE! Luchasaurus drags Avalon up to scoop him into tombstone position, but turns it into a FACEBUSTER! Cover with one hand, Luchasaurus wins!
Winner: Luchasaurus, by pinfall
Jurassic Express is back at full power, and are ready to roar their way up the rankings! Will everyone have to watch out for the rumblings of Luchasaurus?
Private Party VS Santana & Ortiz!
Proud ‘n’ Powerful already made their presence known alongside their Inner Circle comrades, but now they look to move up even higher after their Full Gear victory over the Young Bucks. But will they be left outside the VIP section with Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy ready to party their way to the top?
One thing that both teams do agree on is paying tribute to the late Matt Travis, a young man who Santana and Ortiz convinced to start wrestling as a way out of the hard life. The teams sort out and Kassidy starts against Santana. They circle and tie up, and Santana powers Kassidy to a corner. The ref calls for the break, and Santana gives Kassidy a stiff smack on the shoulder. Santana dares Kassidy to bring it up, and the two tie up again. Santana waistlocks and slams Kassidy down, then pie faces him. “Show me what you got, baby boy!” Kassidy gets up but keeps his cool as AEW goes picture in picture.
Santana and Kassidy circle and tie up again. Kassidy gets the waistlock now, then shifts to a full nelson. Kassidy then slips around to snapmare Santana down and crucifix him back, TWO! Santana swings, Kassidy dodges but his kick is blocked. Santana CHOPS Kassidy back! Santana whips Kassidy and follows up with an elbow! Santana runs, and runs Kassidy over! Kassidy springs up but the headscissor is blocked. Santana yanks Kassidy up but Kassidy arm-drags him away! Things speed up, Kassidy rolls off Santana’s back to arm-drag him again! And then dropkick him down! Santana backs off and regroups with Ortiz on the outside. Santana catches his breath while Ortiz grabs a chair. The ref warns Ortiz so he puts the chair down. Santana gets in and circles with Kassidy again as AEW goes to break.
AEW returns and now Quen and Ortiz are in, and Quen has Ortiz down. Quen brings Ortiz up but Ortiz rakes the eyes! And bites the ear! Tag to Santana, and Proud ‘n’ Powerful double whip Quen. Santana whips Ortiz in but Quen puts him out. Quen fights back, hops up, but Ortiz anchors him! Santana hops up, SUPER RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! Ortiz steps in for a DDT! Santana dead lifts Quen for a GERMAN SUPELX! Bridging cover but Kassidy stomps it out! Santana protests but he drags Quen up for a backbreaker. Santana bends Quen back and fans boo. Santana clubs Quen down then drags him up for a suplex. Santana holds on, and lifts Quen again, to hold him! Ortiz tags in and gets the hand-off! They keep Quen up and fans have to admit, that’s impressive. Ortiz keeps Quen up for about a count of 10, then Santana tags in to take Quen back!
After about another 10 count, Ortiz tags back in and then again takes Quen back! And finally, a FALCON ARROW! Cover, TWO!! Quen can still think after being upside-down for half a minute or more! Ortiz takes off his gloves and then unzips Quen’s suit to CLAW his back! Quen hits back with big body shots and fans fire up. But Ortiz claws him again! Ortiz grabs Quen’s legs and flips him over for the Boston Crab. Quen endures, but Santana tags in, and climbs up, to leap over and mule kick! And then he brings Quen into a Camel Clutch! It’s the Camel Crab combo from Baltimore! The ref counts and Ortiz finally lets go at 4. Santana makes it a clutch cradle, TWO! Santana sucker punches Kassidy just because! The ref is busy keeping Kassidy back, and Ortiz drags Quen to the corner. But Quen pushes Ortiz away! Ortiz hits the apron, Santana turns around to see what happened, and AEW goes picture in picture again.
Santana runs but Quen boots him away. Quen runs back, but into a tilt-o-whirl backbreaker! Ortiz hops up and leaps, leg drop! Ortiz flexes as PNP have Quen down and writhing. Santana keeps Quen down with a grinding boot into his back. Santana mocks Kassidy wanting to tag in, but drags Quen away to tag Ortiz. Ortiz Northern Lights Quen, bridging cover, TWO! Ortiz drags Quen into a facelock and grinds him down more. Quen endures and fights up but Ortiz flips around to a camel clutch. Ortiz throws a BIG crossface forearm to club Quen down! Ortiz drags Quen back up into the clutch, to clobber him again! “We’re the BEST!” And Ortiz claws Quen again! Ortiz also sucker punches Kassidy for good measure. Ortiz tags in Santana, and they mug Quen in the PNP corner.
Santana tags Ortiz again, and Ortiz brings Quen into a bearhug. AEW returns to single picture as Quen endures the squeeze. The fans rally up and Quen turns the bearhug into a wheelbarrow! Victory roll but Quen instead springs out to tag in Kassidy! Indy explodes but Ortiz avoids the Penalty Kick. Kassidy hits Santana back for those sucker punches!

Kassidy feels the energy, slingshot DESTROYER! Cover, but Santana yanks on the ref! The ref reprimands Santana but Quen CANNONBALLS in!
Ortiz rolls Kassidy and throws him at Quen, but the Silly String doesn’t work out because Quen’s back gives out! Ortiz runs in but Kassidy goes up and over. Santana gets in and both Proud ‘n’ Powerful dodge Kassidy, Pop-Up Powerbomb, inverted sunset to a Penalty Kick! Cover, TWO!! Kassidy still lives and the party keeps going!

Cover, Private Party wins!!
Winners: Private Party, Isiah Kassidy pinning
Another huge upset in their careers for Kassidy and Quen! Could they be moving right up into the top three tag teams in the company?
But as payback on Nick, Sammy Guevara throws Nick into the barrier! He’s doing it one-handed as he selfie vlogs the whole thing! But wait, DUSTIN RHODES is here! He gets revenge on the Inner Circle using that cast arm! Sammy springboards in, into an atomic drop! And a cast forearm! Nick and Dustin vlog that! Fans are fired up for the Natural standing tall with Private Party! But is this war with the Inner Circle far from over?
AEW catches up with Kenny Omega.
The Best Bout Machine pumps some iron and finishes up a set. He addresses the fans and says it’s rare that he gets to do something like this. He isn’t really a promo guy, but he wasn’t really known for being a “hardcore guy” either. Yet, he did a lot of strange things, uncharacteristic of who Omega is. But Omega realizes why he’s lost his marbles: losing to PAC. It took that one instant and The Bastard took everything away. Moxley beat up the scraps but it was Pac that started it. Omega and Pac are having their rematch in Chicago, and that could be Omega’s restart button. Tune in for a match you won’t want to miss. Now, good bye and good bench. Michael Nakazawa puts more weight on the bar. Wait, that’s not much actually. Omega still benches, but it’s lopsided… Unconventional to say the least, will Omega make it back to even against Pac in Chicago?
Jon Moxley VS Darby Allin!
Two of the wildest men in AEW and they’re facing off in the main event! The Death Rider put out a challenge to see if anyone was man enough to face him, and the undead underdog turned out to be the one man mad enough to accept! Will the Coffin Drop on Mox? Or will the Paradigm Shift be a dead end?
Moxley barely gets to ringside from the crowd before Darby DIVES! Direct hit sends Moxley into barriers and a brawl is on! Moxley throws Darby into barriers but Darby throws him into the crowd! The match isn’t happening but the fight is on in front of the fans! Fans cheer for “A E DUB! A E DUB!” as the fight heads back towards ringside. Moxley back suplexes but Darby slips out and lands on his feet, to run back in and DIVE! Darby takes Moxley down in front of the fans again, but the referee orders them to get this back to ringside. Moxley doesn’t listen as he rams Darby into barriers at the back. Moxley then fireman’s carries and tosses Darby over the railing! Moxley drags Darby up to ram him into the post! Darby writhes and Moxley paces. Moxley drags Darby up to overhead belly2belly him onto the floor!
Fans are loving this as Moxley paces the ring. Moxley puts Darby in the ring and this match finally begins! Moxley says the ref should check on Darby, but Darby drags himself to a corner. Moxley runs in but Darby boots him back. Fans duel as Darby leaps over and shotgun dropkicks back! Darby throws big forearms, throws Moxley then climbs up, to crossbody! Moxley just lets Darby bounce off him! Then he shotgun BLASTS Darby into buckles! Fans are fired up as Moxley stands on the ropes. Moxley goes back to Darby to TOSS him across the way. And then Moxley lounges on the ropes. Moxley stalks Darby to the corner and TOSSES him again as AEW goes picture in picture.
Moxley grabs Darby’s hand to stomp on it! But Darby is right up to leap on Moxley! Darby clubs away in a corner but Moxley powers him off for a swinging backbreaker! Cover, TWO! Moxley looms over Darby and drags Darby up to the middle of the ring. Moxley stands Darby up to CHOP him off his feet! And then again! Moxley toys with Darby as he brings him up a third time. Darby ducks the chop to fire off fast hands! Darby runs but into a big back elbow! Cover, TWO! Moxley seems to like Darby’s toughness as he drags him from the ropes. Moxley stomps Darby in the stomach, then laces the legs for a Texas Cloverleaf! Darby endures being bent back as AEW returns to single picture.
Darby endures, reaches, but Moxley sits down to make this part STF! Darby still drags himself and now Moxley over, for the ropebreak! Moxley lets up fast and puts Darby in a corner. Darby elbows back then hops up and over. Darby returns but is put on the apron. He dodges, slingshots in, and crossbodies into Moxley, sending himself out! Moxley takes damage, but Darby got the worse impact! Darby and Moxley are up and brawling, Moxley back suplexes Darby at the apron but Darby lands safe on his feet! Darby stomps Moxley’s hand, then climbs on his back. Darby clubs away then shoves Moxley into steel steps! Darby keeps on Moxley with more clubbing forearms, and then slams Moxley’s hand on the steps! Fans duel as Darby gets back in the ring. Darby goes back out, but Moxley sends him back in, only for Darby to dropkick him back out.
Darby goes up top but Moxley is up fast to throw hands. Moxley climbs up to join Darby but Darby has pulled off the crossbar cover. Darby puts Moxley’s fingers through the crossbar and stands on them! But Moxley shoves Darby off and Darby tumbles into ropes! Darby hits the mat while Moxley frees his hand. Moxley hops down while the ref checks on Darby. Somehow Darby is okay to continue, so Moxley drags him up for a suplex. But Darby goes after the fingers! Moxley kicks low, and X-PLEXES!

Then underhooks, SUPER PARADIGM SHIFT!! Cover, Moxley wins!!
Winner: Jon Moxley, by pinfall
How is Darby not crippled or worse!? Mad Mox gets his win and is moving up the rankings, but will there be anyone crazy enough to take him on next?
My Thoughts:
A wild night to keep things rolling after Full Gear! All the matches were great, but Nick Jackson VS Rey Fenix really surprised me. I think it surprised a lot of fans in Indy, that was incredible. Now obviously, Nick is a great wrestler, as is Matt, they just prefer being purely tag team wrestlers. However, that was definitely all the best Nick related spots of a Young Bucks match all in one. In the end, it is as I figured going into this: Fenix wins because he’s a highly accomplished singles wrestler. Baker VS Shida made for a great unofficial contender’s match. Both were heading for a rematch with Riho, but since Baker got hers a few weeks ago, it makes a lot of sense for Shida to win here. Even without rankings and with Baker’s previous shot at the title, it just made sense for Shida to win as the more experienced wrestler. Riho VS Shida will be great, especially if they use it to close out 2019 before the reported win-loss refresh.
The Dark Order’s “recruitment” vignette was pretty good. It definitely paints them as this cult that wants to take over by manipulating the outcasts towards their cause. What wasn’t great about Jericho’s segments tonight? His stuttering with the word “sorry” and using Hager to say it. That’s actually a great role reversal of muscle and mouth piece. Then SCU using reverse psychology to goad Jericho into the title match was amazing, and so will Scorpio VS Jericho next week. Jurassic Express coming to SCU’s rescue was a great way to tease a literally huge match of Luchasaurus VS Hager, I hope we get to see that. Proud ‘n’ Powerful losing to Private Party was a shocker, and I am loving how all these stories are intermingling because of just how widespread the Inner Circle and even The Elite are.
The Diamond Dozen Battle Royale was a lot of fun, though it is one example from tonight that TV timing is still tricky. That Shawn Spears moment with Janela ended up on commercial, which is a shame. There were also examples of that with things like the Private Party VS PNP match, and even Jericho going around talking to people backstage before his “announcement” segment. Just something that no one can really blame them for, it’s just the reality of live television. MJF VS Hangman is going to be a great match for that Dynamite Diamond Ring, but I really want to hear what the purpose of the ring is going to be. And while Hangman resigned from The Elite via Being The Elite, I hope that story plays out on TV. Cody is back, he’ll want revenge on MJF and Wardlow, and surely he’ll feel compelled to go after them during that Diamond Ring match.
Omega had a great promo, with that weight lifting gag a nice touch for some comedy. Omega VS Pac in Chicago will be great but surely Omega has to win so that he’s not falling off the winning track. Of course, the win-loss refresh might be a thing, since Omega talked about the reset button here. Moxley VS Darby was a great main event! Darby’s body bag entrance was cool, and him going right at Moxley was perfect booking. Darby is crazy enough to rile Moxley up and that just helped escalate everything going on. I really expected some kind of body bag suplex or powerslam, but maybe another time. That SUPER Paradigm Shift was gnarly, though. Moxley is on a roll so of course he wins, and there is no shame in losing for Darby. I wouldn’t be surprised if Darby, as banged up as he is, is crazy enough to ask for another match.
My Score: 9.1/10

Daniel Garcia VS Johnny TV w/ MXM Collection!
Speaking of the TNT Championship, it will be Red Death challenging Jack Perry for that gold. But before he becomes the Face of TNT, can he prove to Johnny and the world that he is #TVReady?
The bell rings and Garcia circles with Johnny. They tie up, go around, and Johnny powers Garcia to a corner. The ref counts, Johnny lets off slowly, but then he takes a swing!

Wait, cameras have caught up and now Perry is brawling with Menard in the back! Garcia hurries to the back, but Perry throws Menard into railing! And SMACKS him with a floor sign! Perry stalks Menard while commentary says AEW is coming unglued! Things have moved to the parking lot, and Perry SMACKS Menard off the Scapegoat bus! “You think he’s ready? You think he’s ready!? Then you’re what’s holding him back. But I’m gonna fix that.”
Perry shoves Menard aside, then goes into the bus. Perry brings out a tow chain, with a hook on it! Perry CLUBS Menard, then hooks him up to the back of the bus! Between the chain and the bus exhaust, Menard is coughing and sputtering. Perry tells Menard, “We all have to sacrifice.” Perry then goes into the bus, but Garcia runs up! Garcia fires off on Perry, throws him into the side of the bus, “You thought this was a game?!” Garcia stomps Perry, and he frees Menard from the chain. Garcia stands Perry up abut Menard has an idea. Menard takes the camera, but Collision goes to break. What hell will Garcia put Perry through a week before Full Gear?
Lio Rush speaks.
“I am sick and tired of feeling the way that I’ve been feeling lately. Lost and confused on where I stand with the people that surrounded me. It’s really hard to know exactly who you are when you lose the matches that mean the most. But then I take a deep breath, I look at my watch, and I remember that I’m the Man of the Hour. I came to AEW to collect titles. I’m a 30-year-old piece of gold, and I pray that the people I call friends get on the same page. Because it’s only a matter of time before Lio Rush is rushing to the top.”
Garcia has Perry tied to the hood of the bus!
Garcia shouts at Perry that he was waiting for a reason! Garcia and Menard get in the bus, and they take Perry for a ride! They go through guard rails, up a ramp, and perhaps even into town! Will the Scapegoat end up a bug on a windshield?
Shelton Benjamin w/ MVP VS Komander w/ Alex Abrahantes!

Komander hurries to a corner and climbs! Komander tightrope walks the 20 feet, to then SPACE MAN MOONSAULT! Down goes Shelton and the fans are thunderous! Komander hurries to get Shelton up but Shelton ELBOWS him away. Shelton slides into the ring himself, but Komander follows. MVP is furious as Komander runs, 619! Shelton is down and Komander goes up again! MVP shouts at Shelton while Komander aims.
Komander tightrope walks again but has to bail out as Shelton moves! Shelton waistlocks to GERMAN SUPLEX! And then GERMAN SUPLEX again! Komander flounders to a corner, Shelton runs up to STEP-UP KNEE! And then a SUPERKICK! Komander gets folded up and MVP says finish it already! Shelton hauls Komander up, clinches, and hits PAYDIRT! Cover, Shelton wins!
Winner: Shelton Benjamin, by pinfall
MVP stands with Shelton in the victory, but Komander definitely give more of a fight than either man expected. MVP then says we should leave with a souvenir! Shelton grabs at Komander’s mask! Abrahantes gets in the ring to stop Shelton, but then he sees MVP there. MVP grabs Abrahantes by the neck! MVP LARIATS Abrahantes down! MVP may be a manager now, but he can still hit other managers hard. Will nothing stop The Hurt Syndicate from owning AEW?
Backstage interview with Kris Statlander.
Renee Paquette is with the #BornAgainKristen and says that we’re just one week away from Kris VS Mercedes Mone for the TBS Championship at Full Gear. Things have already gotten out of control, from Mone & Kamille trying to run Kris over with a car, and then Kris tackles them through a wall. Once the bell rings, what can we expect? Kris says, “Anything and everything.” Mone is one of the best, will do anything she can to win, and is most dangerous when she’s cornered, where she is right now. Everything she’s tried hasn’t worked because Kris is still standing. Kris will be the one standing tall as the NEW TBS Champion.
In steps Hikaru Shida with enthusiastic applause. The Shining Samurai tells Kris that she just wants to wish her luck. It’s about time someone beats Mone’s boney ass! And when Kris becomes the new champion, Shida will gladly be her first challenger. Kris says alright, sure. But here’s another idea: Kris is always open for a challenge any time, especially against #HolyShida, the only THREE-TIME AEW Women’s World Champion. So how about this? Wednesday Night Dynamite, Shida VS Kris. Shida’s all for it! They shake hands, but will fighting Shida be a little too much before going to Full Gear? Or will it prove Kris is still The Galaxy’s Greatest?
Backstage interview with The Acclaimed.
Lexy Nair is with Max Caster & Anthony Bowens ahead of their huge Full Gear Tag Team Contenders Series match with La Faccion Ingobernable. But where is Billy Gunn? Caster asks that more importantly, where are their heads going into the match? Because Caster just has to say, as the Best Wrestler Alive, he’s feeling real confident. Bowens says for Lexy’s actual question, Billy will be here. What Caster was trying to say is that The Acclaimed do feel great, because they are one match away from joining that Fatal 4, where they will become TWO-TIME AEW World Tag Team Champions in the Scissor King’s home state of New Jersey!
And when they win, The Acclaimed will celebrate with one big scissoring, because EVERYONE LOVES THE ACCLAIMED! Ain’t that right, Lexy? Oh, wait, MVP steps in, Shelton Benjamin by his side. The Hurt Syndicate just wants to wish The Acclaimed luck. The Syndicate handled their business, so Caster & Bownes should handle theirs. Oh, and Max, use your size and strength. This is a big opportunity, don’t blow it. The Syndicate heads out, but will The Acclaimed win to impress MVP? Or to get back where they belong?
“Powerhouse” Will Hobbs VS Bulk Bronson w/ The Iron Savages!
The return of the Powerhouse is truly big for AEW, but all the Iron Savages are big. And Jacked Jameson wants everyone to hold on. The fat morons and skinny idiots of Albany can shut up. Jameson gives all the introductions, and looking at “P-P-Powerhouse,” all you people are expecting a meat madness match! You want meat?! Then yeah, chant it up! But here’s some news: all these losers are going on a vegan diet! There will be no meat tonight! Because they are The Iron Savages, sippin’ sauce and livin’ hoss while they take all the Low T Meatriders to #TIDDYCITY! Guess Bronson can do it, too?
The bell rings and the fans rally up. Bronson pumps up and puffs up, but he’s looking lean compared to Hobbs. Bronson runs, RAMS Hobbs, but Bronson bounces off! The fans fire up but the Savages coach Bronson up. Hobbs says stop playing and bring it! Hobbs SLAPS Bronson, so Bronson really fires up! Bronson kicks low, and says, “How ’bout that, Hobbs?!” Bronson runs, but Hobbs dodges and CLOBBERS him! The fans fire up while Hobbs brings Bronson around. Scoop and SLAM, and the fans fire up with Hobbs! Hobbs then brings Bronson up to scoop and SLAM again! Bronson writhes, the fans chant for “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!”
Hobbs drags Bronson up, scoops and SLAMS again! Bronson writhes while Hobbs looms over him. Hobbs brings Bronson up, but Bronson wrenches out to ROCK Hobbs! Bronson fires haymakers, then CLUBS away on Hobbs’ back! The fans rally, Bronson reels Hobbs in, but Hobbs suplexes Bronson first! Bronson flounders into a corner, the fans fire up as Hobbs headbutts buckles! Hobbs runs up to SPLASH in the corner! Hobbs says he’s got all the meat! Hobbs LARIATS point blank again and again as fans chant “MEAT!” Hobbs lets Bronson stagger about, before he CLOBBERS him!
Hobbs shakes the ropes, and the straps come down! The fans fire up but Jameson talks trash on the apron. Hobbs DECKS him! Boulder runs in?! Hobbs hits a SPINEBUSTER! The ref can’t believe what’s going on as Hobbs torture racks Bronson! ARGENTINE RACK! Bronson TAPS, Hobbs wins! And drops Bronson on Boulder!
Winner: “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs, by submission
Big, jacked, and ANYBODY can get it! That is the way of the Powerhouse! Will the Book of Hobbs have quite the comeback story?
Backstage interview with The Undisputed Kingdom.
Lexy is now with Roderick Strong, Matt Taven & Mike Bennett. She congratulates Roddy for getting his third win via Lance Archer. Roddy now faces MJF at Full Gear, so how is he feeling? How’s he feeling? First, thanks for all that, Lexy, he appreciates it. Second, “MAAAX! You have seven days. Seven days from right now until you’re standing across the ring from me, Max. And look, I got a lot to say, and on Wednesday, you’re gonna hear it all, but I just wanna leave you with this: Max, you walk around here thinking you’re smarter than everybody, you’re better than everybody. I don’t think you realize what you’ve gotten yourself into.
“I am the Messiah of the Backbreaker. I am a damn wrestling legend! And when Full Gear ends, you’re gonna realize that I’m better than you, and you know it!” Roddy is ready to throw it all back in MJF’s face, but will the Wolf of Wrestling have a contingency plan?
Private Party is here!
The MVP Arena is ready to party with the champs, and Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy are ready to watch the final match of the contenders’ series! Who joins Private Party, The Outrunners, and The Kings of the Black Throne at Full Gear?
Full Gear Tag Team Contenders Series: Rush & The Beast Mortos w/ Jake “The Snake” Roberts VS The Acclaimed w/ Billy Gunn!
Platinum Max of course has a diss track. “These dudes gotta be embarrassed. You ’bout to lose bigger than Kamala Harris! LFI in a title match is outta place. It’s like Mexicans being managed by Jake the Snake! I would’ve called the committee, but you’re lucky Albany’s a sanctuary city!” Bowens takes over to say, “ALBANAAAAAY~! The Acclaimed have arrived! Scissor me, Daddy Ass~!” And he does~! But Caster doesn’t? The teams sort out, and while Caster wants to, Bowens convinces him to let Bowens start. Mortos steps up and the fans sing while the bell rings. Bowens and Mortos circle, tie up, and Mortos powers Bowens to a corner.
The ref counts, Mortos lets off, but Bowens dodges the shot to fire CHOPS! Mortos just roars! Mortos runs up, Bowens dodges to CHOP, CHOP and fire forearms! Mortos puts Bowens in a corner to fire forearms and lariats! Caster protests but Mortos SMACKS Bowens! And SMACKS him again! Mortos whips, Bowens reverses, but Mortos rolls off Bowens’ back! Bowens DROPKICKS but Mortos rebounds to CLOBBER Bowens! Bowens gets up but Caster tags in. Caster tells Bowens to relax, but here comes Rush. The fans rally up and the two tie up. Rush powers Caster back, Caster turns things around, but Rush turns it back around.
The ref counts as they’re in a corner, and the two separate. Rush eggs Caster on, the two tie up again, and Rush waistlocks. Caster switches, shoves, and drops down. Rush runs up but Caster hurdles. Rush leaps over but Caster runs him over! Rush runs Caster over! The fans fire up, but Caster says hold on! Tranquilo! Caster raises the ingobernable fist, Rush is moderately amused, but then Caster sucker punches him! Rush scowls and DECKS Caster! Rush goes out to grab his favorite green cable!

Mortos roars, but Bowens sends him into the corner! Mortos tumbles up and out, then Bowens gives Rush the kick, kick, and FAMOUSER! Bowens shouts, “EVERYONE LOVES THE ACCLAIMED!” Bowens then goes up and aims, SUPER CROSSBODY onto Mortos! The fans fire up and Bowens hurries to put Mortos in. Cover, TWO! Mortos stays in this, but Bowens stays focused. Bowens fires forearms but Mortos hits back.
Bowens fires a flurry, then whips, but Mortos reverses. Mortos POP-UP SAMOAN DROPS Bowens down! The fans fire up but Caster MISSILE DROPKCIKS Mortos! Rush runs up, but Caster SUPERKICKS him! Caster runs at Rush, but Rush THROWS him into the corner! Bowens DECKS Rush! The fans fire up as all four men are down! Private Party likes this, too, as Billy coaches his guys. Jake also coaches LFI, and “This is Awesome!” Mortos blocks a shot to HEADBUTT Bowens down! Tag to Rush and Rush runs at the corner, only for Bowens to dodge! Bowens CHOPS and CHOPS and CHOPS away!
Bowens sits Rush down, mocks the tranquilo with some scissor fingers, but that pisses Rush off! Rush shoves Bowens, the hands start flying! Rush whips Bowens to a corner, to CHOP, CHOP, and CHOP! Rush sits Bowens down to stomp away! The ref counts, Rush argues with him, but then goes corner to corner! Feint and BOOT! Rush gives a proper tranquilo, then he has the fans fired up. Bownes runs up, but into a SNAP POWERSLAM! Rush puts Bowens in the drop zone, goes up, SUPER SENTON FLOPS! Tag to Caster and he goes up! DIVING SPLASH! Cover, Mortos breaks it!

Winners: The Acclaimed, by pinfall (advance to Full Gear)
Private Party says alright, nice on Acclaimed! Billy helps Caster to his feet, but Caster is a bit squirrely. Caster calms down, and The Acclaimed all SCISSOR FINGER~! They’re in the Fatal 4, but will Caster & Bowens be the ones to become TWO-TIME TWO-TIME AEW World Tag Team Champions?
PROGRAMMING NOTE for next week!
With Full Gear being next Saturday, November 23rd, Collision takes a week off! We’ll see everyone back here in two weeks on November 30th!
Backstage interview with Mina Shirakawa.
Lexy is with the Fighting Gravure Idol and congratulates her on her win in her return. Mina says yes, she is so back to have come back here, and she is so excited for Mariah’s match. Lexy says Mina already has multiple championships, is AEW gold on her mind at all? Mina says she’s just excited for Mariah’s match. But that’s not a no… Time to dance! Mina shimmies her way on out, but will she end up wanting something more than just fun with her friend?
Backstage interview with The Conglomeration.
Lexy is now with Mark Briscoe, Rocky Romero & Tomohiro Ishii, and she notes that in a couple weeks, Dynamite: Thanksgiving Eve, it will be Tomohiro Ishii VS Chris Jericho for the ROH World Championship. How is Ishii feeling? The Stone Pitbull is stone-faced, so Mark Briscoe “translates” what #BigTom is exuding with his aura. This is what he’s trying to say: Jericho, your days are numbered! You better shine that title up real nice, sleep with it real close, because soon, it’s getting up outta there! “Learning Tree my ass, you about to learn a lesson about humility! You about to learn a lesson about gettin’ your ass whooped!”
Mark asks if they understand what he’s saying, and Rocky says yeah, he’s picking up what Mark’s putting down. Rocky’s digging the energy, and he feels the intensity. But he has to know one thing: What is the word of the day? That’s a hell of a question, Rocky, because today, it is a menagerie of words! Take a basket, reach in, pull out the word of the day, and well, it’s tenacious! Tenacity! Ferocious! Velocity! Ferocity! He’s tellin’ ya, long story short, that title is coming back to the Conglomeration, courtesy of Tomohiro Ishii! Jericho, you gettin’ your ass whooped, son! RARARARA!
Mark may be fire on the outside, but Ishii is fire on the inside. Will The Learning Tree be burned down either way?
Backstage interview with FTR.
Lexy notes that this past Wednesday, Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood came up short in their own Full Gear Contenders Series match. Where are their heads out right now? Cash says he wishes he had an answer, because he doesn’t really know. FTR doesn’t know where they go from here. They wish it was just one bad night, but the truth of the matter is, FTR lost those titles a little over a year ago and have had chances to get them back where they just haven’t. Maybe it’s FTR. Maybe their time has passed them. Maybe they need to reevaluate. Dax agrees. But on Dynamite, the better team won on that night.
While FTR could cry about it, or they could rebuild. Therefore, they will rebuild. This may not be FTR’s time, but it is someone’s time. It is The Outrunners’ time! And maybe after Full Gear, we get an FTRunners dream match for those titles. Boys, they’re pulling for you. Speaking of, we’re about to hear from The Outrunners right now!
The Outrunners speak.
Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd have another retro style video in old standard definition, saying they’ve got the looks and the attitude, so you know they’ve got “the stuff!” It’s a highlight reel of their match with Top Flight, even using retro graphics in the editing. You gotta have the meat! And right now, they’re sizzling! But will Truth & Turbo be prime A1 material at Full Gear? Or will they end up well done?
AEW Women’s World Championship No Disqualifications Match: Mariah May VS Anna Jay!
The Battle of the Belts was a Title Eliminator that went The Queenslayer’s way, only for The Glamour to get her revenge in the proper title match. However, all the back and forth, the bullying and the brawling, it has led to this rubber match! And as if No Disqualifications isn’t raising the stakes enough, Anna promises that if she loses, this is the last time she challenges Mariah for the title! Will this last chance be just the chance Anna needs to become The Star of the Show? Or will AEW still be All About Mariah?
Anna already brings a duffel bag of weaponry, and Nigel panics for Mariah’s sake. But Mariah came prepared with a trash can, baseball bat, and proper attire for a Street Fight. The introductions are made, but Mariah throws her can already! Anna dodges then SHOTGUNS Mariah! The bell rings, Anna is right on Mariah, and she sends Mariah into the railing! And then the steel steps! And then back into railing! The fans fire up while Anna keeps after Mariah with haymakers. Anna whips Mariah hard into railing! The Vendetta watches backstage, they seem to like Anna bringing out the violence as she SMACKS Mariah off the desk!
Anna confiscates a monitor to SMACK Mariah on the back! Mariah falls into Schaivone’s arms, and Nigel is furiously jealous! Anna SMACKS Mariah off the apron, then grabs herself a chair, to SMACK Mariah with it legs first! Anna pushes Mariah into the ring, then goes up a corner. Mariah stands into Anna’s BLOCKBUSTER! The fans fire up as Anna keeps going, and she sits the chair up nearby. Anna drags Mariah up, but Mariah fires body shots! DDTÂ onto the chair! Anna falls back while Mariah snarls. Mariah grabs the trash can and puts it around Anna! Mariah drums on the can, then goes to a corner.
Mariah climbs, Anna stands, and Mariah MISSILE DROPKICKS Anna down! Cover, TWO! Anna survives but Mariah just goes outside to look under the ring. The fans fire up in anticipation, and Mariah grins as she brings out a LADDER! Mariah pushes that ladder into the ring, stomps Anna around, then drags the ladder up. The ladder is propped up in a corner, then whips Anna, but Anna reverses! Mariah avoids hitting the ladder, but Anna has the QUEENSLAYER SLEEPER! Mariah flails, reaches out, but Anna hops on as a backpack! Only for Mariah to SENTON onto the ladder!
The fans fire up while both women are down, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Mariah sputters and coughs while she crawls to ropes. Mariah rolls out of the ring and hurries to look under the ring again. Mariah brings out a new chair, but Anna has brought out one of her own! They each slide the chairs in, and then they add more chairs! And more chairs! So many chairs! They both storm in, armed with chairs, and they CLASH! Mariah is disarmed, so Anna SMACKS her down! Anna goes for her duffel bag! Anna brings out… a crowbar, a wrench, wire, a chain, but she wants the PRYBAR! Mariah ROCKS Anna first, then THRWOS her down onto the chairs! Mariah stomps Anna, then sees all the goodies Anna brought!
Mariah picks up the strap! Mariah LASHES Anna, LASHES her again, but that just pisses Anna off! Anna blocks the shot, ROCKS Mariah, then LASHES her on the back! And LASHES her again! Mariah flounders, Anna kicks things aside to then stomp Mariah down. Anna drags Mariah up to suplex her onto the chairs! Mariah writhes but Anna covers, TWO!! Mariah stays in this, but that just means more pain! Anna stalks Mariah and DIGS the prybar into her ribs! Mariah kicks Anna away, then fires forearms! Anna eggs Mariah on, so Mariah KNEES her down! Cover, TWO! Anna toughs it out as Collision returns to single picture.
Mariah drags Anna up, for a SAIDO! Mariah then positions chairs before she fireman’s carries Anna. MADAYÂ on a chair! Cover, TWO!?! Anna survives and Mariah is furious! Mariah grits her teeth as she drags Anna up and reels her in. Anna fights free, kicks low, then has the Gory Especial! GORY BOMB onto the ladder!! The ladder doesn’t break but Mariah’s face might have! Cover, TWO!! The Vendetta is still watching, and while Taya is very animated, Deonna is very stoic. Anna goes out to look under the ring. Albany gets what they want because here comes a TABLE! Anna brings this up to a TLC as she pushes the table into the ring.
Anna hurries in to set the table up while Mariah crawls and cries in pain. Anna has the table set just right, but she stomps Mariah first. Anna bumps Mariah off the buckles, then hoists her up top. Anna ROCKS Mariah, climbs up after her, and the fans fire up as she aims for the table. Mariah fires body shots first! Mariah bumps Anna off buckles, then SUPSER SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMBS through the table!! Cover, TWO?!?! Anna survives and Mariah cannot believe it! But this is what winning the title with no safety net means for Anna! Mariah goes out, looks under the ring, and she brings out spare railing!?
Mariah pushes the railing into the ring, but she also brings some chairs over. Mariah sets the chairs up before she props the railing up like a ramp. Mariah adds more chairs, but Anna hits a BACKSTABBER first! Both women are down again, but Anna grabs herself some chairs. Anna finishes the project Mariah was working on, and the railing is now a platform! Anna drags Mariah over but Mariah HEADBUTTS first! Mariah then puts Anna on the railing, and looks to go through with her plan all along! The fans fire up as Mariah climbs, but Anna trips her up first! Anna climbs up, and she has Mariah on the very top! SUPERPLEXÂ on the railing!!!
The fans lose their minds as both women are wrecked on the steel bars! Nigel can’t bear to watch the replay! The fans declare, “This is Awesome!” Mariah rises up, but Anna flops out of the ring. Anna finds some BARBED WIRE! Anna looks to relive one of her highlights as she wraps the wire around her arm! Anna stalks Mariah, and has the BARBED WIRE QUEENSLAYER on!!! Mariah suffers and the fans say Anna is sick! Anna doesn’t care, she wants to be champion! Mariah fades, but she uses HAIR SPRAY IN THE EYES!! Mariah is free, and she reels Anna in, STORM ZEROÂ on a chair!! Cover, Mariah wins!!
Winner: Mariah May, by pinfall (still AEW Women’s World Champion)
Taya is upset but Deonna says it’s alright. Anna and Mariah pushed each other to their limits, but also to some dark places. The Glamour is still atop the AEW Women’s Division, and here comes Mina! Best friends get to celebrate Mariah’s victory, and then Mariah KICKS ANna in the side! Mina says no, Mariah, you already did enough! Mariah accepts that, and BREAKING NEWS from Tony Khan: Now that Mariah has retained her title, she and Mina will have their championship champagne celebration for Full Gear! Will no one ever stop Mariah’s reign of glamour?
Jon Moxley speaks.
The Maniac is with Marina Shafir in the parking lot as he says, “I’ve underestimated Orange Cassidy. I’ve pushed him in the ring before, but this sport’s about so much more than what goes on between the ropes. I thought when I broke Chuck Taylor’s neck, one of two things would happen: Either he would turn into a shaky puddle of tears, and I’d walk right over him; or he’d be backed into a corner and he’s snap back, bringing the animal out of Orange Cassidy. Neither of those two things happened, and now I see it for the first time. I don’t think he even went to the hospital with Chuck Taylor.
“He acts like he’s so sad, and that young Wheeler’s traveled down a path he doesn’t approve of, but he doesn’t care. He’s full of it. Now I see it for the first time. I can’t believe I didn’t see it before. Orange Cassidy is a snake. Cold-blooded, reptilian, unnerved. The test will be this Wednesday, when you face your beloved former student who you claim to care about. Will you strike with venomous intent? Or will you keep it clean? Cold-blooded opponent, that is a different challenge entirely, this is gonna be harder than I thought. But man, I wish I was cold-blooded. But I’m not. No. I feel everything.
“Not just the weight of the AEW World Championship, but I feel the weight of the last five years. I feel the weight of the dreams and aspirations of every single wrestler who walks through these doors. I feel the weight of everybody’s mistakes and broken promises. I feel the weight of every single AEW fan who buys a ticket and pays for parking, and takes off work, and gives us their hard-earned money, and time, and energy, because AEW is something they believe in! What AEW could be! You don’t like the way I do things? November 23rd, you’re gonna have a chance.
“Lop my head off. Let it hit the dirt and roll at your feet. Reach down and pick up that crown, put it on your head. See if you like how it feels. At Full Gear, I smear Orange Cassidy’s blood on our flag, and I plant it in the ground so hard, it will never get moved. You wanna ride with me? You wanna ride in MY AEW? We ride into battle every single day to grab pro-wrestling by the balls, and you better be ready to die on your shield every single day! And if you’re not, get out. Or you will get taken out.” The Maniac has issued his ultimatum, will Freshly Squeezed heed it?
AEW Collision wraps with the November to Remember music video.
Set to November Rain by Guns ‘n’ Roses, we look back even as far as the last time Jon Moxley and Orange Cassidy feuded, which included their battle over the AEW International Championship at Full Gear 2023. There are also highlights to hype up the TNT Championship match of Jack Perry VS Daniel Garcia, and the long-awaited grudge match between Jay White and Hangman Page. Who will truly make this a November to Remember when they stand tall in the November rain?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision, and I forgot that this counts as the go-home Collision with Full Gear next week. The music video recap package to end the show is really well done, and makes a good ending moment, but then it makes other promos a little redundant. Honestly, why not wait to use this as the cold open to Full Gear next Saturday? This would be an awesome PPV opening video. And good closing promo from Moxley, with good spin on Cassidy’s aloof nature. Maybe Cassidy’s cold, or maybe he’s in control of his emotions. I suppose Cassidy VS Yuta on Dynamite will give some of that away.
Great stuff with the TNT Championship story. Garcia VS Johnny was a really good match, even with MXM getting involved. Perry abducting Menard in an attempt to tow him behind the bus was wild, but I like how Garcia turned the tables on Perry. I kinda wish we got a little more of their “joyride” through Albany and New York, but maybe we get more of that on Dynamite. Either way, it feels like Garcia already has the “standing tall” part of the go-home math, meaning he loses at Full Gear. Maybe Perry will cheat his way out of the match so that Garcia can still be strong in defeat.
Really good match from Shelton and Komander but of course Shelton won. Good promo from Hurt Syndicate with The Acclaimed to keep up the recruit tease, and very good match from Acclaimed VS LFI. Good win for The Acclaimed, and you can bet that the Fatal 4 Way will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. Caster was even distancing himself in his own way here, with not wanting to scissor finger before the match and other little details. Caster can turn on Bowens and join the Hurt Syndicate to start on a singles championship story with them. Lio Rush likely will, too, given his promo.
Very good promo from Conglomeration to hype up Thanksgiving Eve and the ROH World Championship match of Ishii VS Jericho. Still doesn’t feel like Jericho’s losing, though, as he really only just got the title and there’s still this idea of Jericho being responsible for ROH getting a TV deal. Y’know, the same way he’s kayfabe responsible for Collision happening so that he could be on another show separate from… Whoever he was feuding with back then. Very good promo from Roddy to call out MJF, though he literally says he’ll talk more on Dynamite so what was the point of tonight? Just filling time?
Great match for Hobbs to get back on a winning track in singles action, and the “All Star 8 Man” on Wednesday will be great stuff. I feel like Brian Cage or Lance Archer takes the loss in that match, giving momentum to Ricochet and Ospreay going into each of the Full Gear grudge matches. With that, Ricochet maybe pulls off the International Championship win, but Ospreay probably does not win because of Don Callis Family cheating. As for Hobbs himself, The Continental Classic is coming, maybe he gets in on that and really dominates. Hobbs and Okada would be a lot of fun to see, I kinda hope we get that.
Great opener from Mina VS Harley as Harley continues to build her in-ring skill and impress. I like Mina kinda dodging the question about titles here in AEW, because she doesn’t wanna give away that she wants THE AEW Women’s World Championship. Mariah VS Anna was a great main event, they really busted out some good stuff. Mariah using the hair spray was a very clever way to turn things around and help her win. Mariah and Mina having their celebration on Full Gear, I feel like that’s the moment things go sideways in this friendship.
My Score: 8.8/10

Hikaru Shida VS Leila Grey!
The Shining Samurai continues her comeback, looking to carve a path back to a championship. But the Top Flight Attendant only just called out the ROH Women’s World Champion, Athena, last night on ROH TV. Will Leila be flying high towards her Proving Grounds match with The Fallen Goddess? Or will Shida use Leila as just another tune-up?
The bell rings, the two circle, and the fans rally up. The two tie up, Leila wrenches and wristlocks to YANK the arm. Leila keeps on the wristlock but Shida handsprings and wrenches back. Shida hammerlocks, headlocks, but Leila fires body shots. Leila powers up and out, but Shida runs Leila over! The fans fire up, and things keep moving. Shida rolls over Leila’s dropdown, then bypasses Leila. Leila stops the hip toss to fire body shots and knees! Leila goes to run but Shida reels her in. Shida lifts with the waistlock, and she swings Leila around, before the SLAM! The fans fire up with Shida and she goes outside.
Shida brings Leila to the apron, CLUBS her, then lines up a shot. Shida runs in to KNEE LIFT! The fans fire up again and Shida hurries back in. Shida brings Leila up, fireman’s carries, but Leila flails with forearms and elbows. Leila sunset flips, TWO! Leila ROCKS Shida, UPPERCUTS, then kicks low. Leila KICKS high, then kicks a leg out, to run and SHOTGUN! Shida tumbles, Leila covers, TWO! Shida stays in this but Leila stays on her. Leila bumps Shida off buckles, then she runs Shida side to side to bump off more buckles. Leila CHOPS and the fans “WOO~!” Leila smiles and puts some stank on the CHOP!
Leila swings but Shida dodges the third chop, to ROCK Leila! Shida whips, Leila reverses, and Leila SHINING WIZARDS in the corner! Then BULLDOG! Cover, TWO! Shida is tougher than that but Leila stalks her. The fans rally up, Leila brings Shida around, and Leila fires a forearm! Shida fires one in return! Leila fires again, but Shida ROCKS Leila! Leila ROCKS Shida! The fans rally up and Shida feeds off the energy. Shida fires forearm after forearm, but Leila takes a swing! Shida dodges, wrenches, and short arm LARIATS! The fans fire up and Shida is after Leila in a corner. Shida climbs up, and she rains down fists!
The fans fire up and count all the way to TEN! Shida roars then kicks Leila away. Shida MISSILE DROPKICKS! Down goes Leila! Shida hurries to cover, TWO! Leila stays in this but Shida takes aim. KATA- NO, Leila deflects! Roll up, TWO!! Shida is up, blocks a boot, and swings, but into a full nelson! Shida wrenches out, BOOTS Leila’s lariat, then QUESTION MARK KICKS! Shida suplexes for the FALCON ARROW! Cover, Shida wins!
Winner: Hikaru Shida, by pinfall
Leila kicks at 3.1, that’s too little too late! Will Leila at least last ten minutes against Athena next week? Will Shida be the one poised for a title shot after Full Gear?
Backstage interview with Harley Cameron.
Renee Paquette is with the crazy Aussie, who keeps pawing at her, and brings up the match Harley’s made for Collision with Mina Shirakawa. Harley asks Renee, does she know what Mina has that Harley doesn’t? No, what is it? NOTHING!! Mina is beautiful, charismatic, and talented. But can she do THIS?! Harley brings out a guitar and starts to play! Harley was a musician, y’know. Oh, wait, there’s a string missing. Never mind, she’s professional! Harley starts adlibbing a Blues-esque song. There once was a little girl. And by “little,” Harley doesn’t mean young child, she means just small in stature.
Anyway, and a five, six, seven, eight! Renee stops Harley there, there’s no time. What?! No! FEEL THE WRATH OF HARLEY CAM- The cameras cut away back to ringside, but will Harley show Mina and the world everything she’s capable of tomorrow night on Collision?
Mark Briscoe VS Ariya Daivari w/ Mark Sterling!
While Chris Jericho keeps disrespecting the legacy of Jay Briscoe, it will be Tomohiro Ishii that handles him. Tonight, the Sussex County Chicken is to focus on himself and the Premier Athletes’ son of privilege. “Smart” Mark takes over introductions by saying Ariya Daivari is about to wrestle “literally the dumbest person in AEW.” Mark is so stupid, really. So please, show the world that Bridgeport is smarter than a Briscoe by reading what is right on the Premier Athletes’ brand new merch shirt: Athletes Rule. Daivari says when he says “Athletes,” the fans should say, “Rule!” and NOTHING ELSE! Got it!?
Okay, hands in. Ohhh… “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Briscoe laughs because the only dumb Mark here is Mark Sterling. But will Briscoe prove that what matters in the ring is street smarts? Or can Daivari prove that Premier Athletes don’t suck?
The bell rings and Briscoe circles with Daivari. They tie up as fans rally, and Briscoe pushes Daivari back. Daivari turns things around to put Briscoe in a corner, and lets off as the ref counts. Daivari shouts, “ATHLETES!” but fans again shout “SUCK!!” Briscoe SHOVES Daivari down and the fans fire up. Briscoe and Daivari circle, tie up, and Briscoe headlocks. Daivari powers up and out, but Briscoe runs him over! The fans fire up and things keep moving. Daivari drops down, Briscoe slides under, and then Briscoe REDNECK KUNG-FU UPPERCUTS! And ROLLING ELBOWS! The fans fire up more while sterling protests.
Briscoe whips Daivari, then UPPERCUTS again! The fans fire up as Daivari goes to a corner. Briscoe storms up to bring Daivari around, for a suplex high and hard! Cover, TWO! Daivari is tougher than that so Briscoe shrugs it off. Briscoe fires hands, Daivari staggers around, but Briscoe CHOPS him in a corner! Briscoe then REDNECK CRANE KICKS! The fans fire up and Briscoe brings Daivari up, but Daivari JAWBREAKERS back! Daivari TOSSES Briscoe out, but the ref has Sterling stay back. Daivari goes out to get Briscoe, but Briscoe sends Daivari into railing! The fans fire up while Daivari writhes, and Briscoe stands him up.
Briscoe CHOPS Daivari, high-fives fans, then CHOPS Daivari again. Briscoe then brings Daivari around to SMACK off a chair! The fans fire up as Briscoe makes Daivari take a seat. Briscoe refreshes the count, then runs up to BOOT Daivari down! The fans fire up more, and Briscoe UPPERCUTS Daivari again. Daivari goes to more railing but Briscoe CHOPS him down again. Briscoe tosses a chair into the ring, HEADBUTTS Daivari, then slides into the ring. Briscoe sets up the chair and the fans fire up! Sterling panics as Briscoe builds speed, so Sterling snatches the chair away! The fans boo but Briscoe goes out after Sterling!
Sterling defends his innocence but Daivari CLUBS Briscoe! And hits a NECKBREAKER on the floor! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Well, clearly Sterling doesn’t learn, but Daivari is control as Rampage goes picture in picture.
Daivari drags Briscoe up and into the ring, then grabs the legs, so he can stomp Briscoe’s gut! Briscoe sputters his way to a corner but Daivari digs his boots in! The ref counts, Sterling cheers, but Daivari lets off. Daivari argues with the ref, so Sterling CHOKES Briscoe! The fans boo but Sterling gets away with it. Daivari whips Briscoe hard into a corner! Briscoe sits down, and Daivari stomps him some more! Daivari snapmares Briscoe, KNEES him in the back, then clamps on a neck wrench. The ref reprimands the fishhook in there, but Daivari shifts to a chinlock. Daivari grinds Briscoe down, but Briscoe endures.
Fans rally up and Briscoe fights to his feet. Rampage returns to single picture as Briscoe fires body shots! Briscoe fires forearms but Daivari knees low! Daivari CLAWS Briscoe’s face, puts him in a corner, then hoists him up top. The fans rally for “DEM BOYS! DEM BOYS!” but Daivari CHOPS Briscoe. Daivari climbs up, brings Briscoe up, but Briscoe fires body shots! Briscoe DECKS Daivari, the fans fire up, but Sterling springs into action! The ref reprimands, Sterling argues with him, and Daivari runs up! Briscoe leaps over Daivari, but Daivari dodges the boot! SLEEPER! The fans boo but Briscoe RAMS Daivari into a corner!
Daivari holds on but Briscoe RAMS him in again and again! Briscoe is finally free, but Daivari then hammerlocks! LION’S LARIAT! And then a wrench, spin, LION’S DDT! Cover, TWO!! Briscoe survives Daivari’s double down and the fans fire up! Daivari throws hands but Briscoe feeds off it! The fans fire up as Briscoe mans up! Daivari headlocks, Briscoe powers out, but Daivari RAMS Briscoe! Briscoe roars! Daivari runs and RAMS Briscoe again! And again! Then Daivari fires hands! But Briscoe blocks to ROCK Daivari! And ROCK him again! And again! REDNECK PALM STRIKES! Briscoe puts Daivari in a corner!
Briscoe rains down fists and the fans count to TEN! Briscoe hops down, the fans fire up, and Briscoe CLOBBERS Daivari! And CLOBBERS him again!

Backstage interview with Anna Jay.
Lexy Nair is with The Queenslayer and notes her AEW Women’s World Championship match set for Collision tomorrow night. It is No Disqualifications, and if Anna wins, she is the NEW champion. But if she loses… Anna will never challenge Mariah May for the title again. Anna says it is worth that risk. It is worth seeing Mariah’s eyes bulging out of her head until she passes out. With no rules, Anna is capable of anything. But in steps Taya Valkyrie, applauding and saying yes, Anna is capable of anything. But so is Mariah. And Mina Shirakawa could be anywhere. Maybe Anna wants some extra insurance? And by the way, The Vendetta does accept cash.
Anna says she can handle her business, so Taya can mind her own. Taya tells Anna okay, okay. But Deonna Purrazzo sends her regards. Stay safe out there. Anna says no, she won’t. Will Anna finally be The Star of the Show when she tears down Mariah? Or will The Virtuosa & La Wera Loca have something to say about that?

Winners: Rush & The Beast Mortos, by pinfall
This probably could’ve been over soon, but LFI likes to play with their food. But will they be much more to the point against Max Caster & Anthony Bowens?
Backstage interview with MVP.
Lexy is with Montel Vontavious Porter and brings up how he’s been watching matches here and there. Is he scouting talent? Absolutely! And as he’s been getting the lay of the land here in AEW, MVP sees so many young and gifted athletes with so much untapped potential. Some of them need motivation. Some need perhaps better management. And some just need to be hurt, beaten down again and again, to their knees. Because only when you’ve broken a man down to his knees can you teach him to stand and put him on the path to success. MVP says Swerve Strickland is a perfect example. So much to learn and yet he just won’t listen.
That is arrogance. It is that arrogance that the fans love, but it is also Swerve’s greatest weakness. Swerve thinks that one man can beat three. That is arrogance. Swerve calls himself the most dangerous man in AEW. With Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin around, that is arrogance. And arrogance, like pride, goeth before the fall. So MVP is paying attention to everything. For example, tonight, where MVP will be watching Ricochet in the main event. Oh, and that young luchador, Komander, what an impressive match. MVP likes that. And then tomorrow night on Collision, Shelton will find out exactly what Komander is made of, and what lessons he needs to learn.
The business plan has been set out, but will The Hurt Syndicate find the diamonds in the rough they are looking for? Or is it all fool’s gold compared to what they already have?
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!
On top of Shelton Benjamin VS Komander, and on top of the AEW Women’s World Championship No Disqualification match, Will Hobbs gets back into singles action as he takes on Bulk Bronson!

Dante headscissors but Ricochet moves around, rolls Dante, then floats to a headlock. Dante fights back up, but Ricochet wrenches to wristlock. Dante goes for ropes but Ricochet keeps him back.

Winner: Ricochet, by pinfall
MVP nods, very impressed by The One & Only Ricochet. Ricochet’s arsenal certainly continues to grow, but he still shows respect to Dante. Will this momentum help Ricochet’s team take down The Don Callis Family this Wednesday Night Dynamite?
My Thoughts:
A very good Rampage, even with it being a five match night. Granted, it was clear Shida was going to win her match and LFI were going to win theirs. Well, so was Briscoe, but it was good stuff with Daivari getting a good showing and Rocky cancelling out Sterling so Briscoe would win. Great match from Rocky and Komander, too, and great win for Komander. Though, as MVP plugged in his promo, Komander is certainly losing to Shelton Benjamin, but I do appreciate the idea that anyone just floating around in the midcard could end up Hurt Syndicate material.
Ricochet VS Dante was a great main event, Ricochet of course won, but between being on Team Ospreay for Dynamite and Hurt Syndicate not leaving him alone, there are all kinds of possibilities for Ricochet. And great promos to hype up the two women’s matches we’re getting on Collision. That’s right, we’re getting two women’s matches! Harley continues to be hilarious, and I like this gag that she never has enough time to get her full madness out. Very good promo from Anna with Taya making a surprise appearance. Given Mariah is more than likely to win tomorrow night, Anna needs something outside of titles so I suppose a feud with The Vendetta could be something. Maybe it’s also a way to bring Tay Conti/Tay Melo back into story since it’d be a tag team feud?
