Dynamite opens with a huge championship rematch! Can the Cowboy pull it together to keep the gold with him and the Best Bout Machine? Or will these once again become the S C U tag team titles?
The introductions are made, the belts are raised, and this rematch from the Cruise of Jericho begins!
Austin cheers for “Cowboy Sh*t!” as the teams sort out. Omega starts against Frankie Kazarian, but wait. The Dark Order interrupts with a message! “Best of luck with your match tonight.” The Dark Order is legion, for they are many. Some of their members may be closer than you think. The Exalted One is coming! “When the time is right, we will strike.” Christopher Daniels says he’ll go make sure Evil Uno and Stu Grayson don’t pull anything, and the bell rings.
Omega and Kaz shake hands and circle. They tie up, Kaz headlocks, but Omega pries against the hold. Omega powers out, Kaz runs him over with a shoulder! Things speed up, Omega arm-drags Kaz and again. Omega has the arm lock but Kaz gets up to put him on the ropes. The ref counts and Kaz lets up, to then kick low!

Fans boo but Scorpio drags Omega around for a kick to the ribs! Omega throws hands in return, and a CHOP! Omega runs but Scorpio kitchen sink knees! Tag to Kaz and Kaz runs in to crossbody! Cover, TWO!
Kaz keeps on Omega with body scissors and a bearhug to squeeze Omega like a boa. Fans rally up as Omega endures. Omega fights his way up to his feet, and he carries Kaz as a backpack towards the corner. But where is Hangman? Omega drops backwards to senton on Kaz! Kaz tags Scorpio and Scorpio is right on Omega with kicks and punches! Kaz runs in to corner splash! SCU double whip Omega corner to corner, but Omega boots Kaz and elbows Scorpio! Omega goes up and over and hurries, hot tag to Hangman! Fans are thunderous as Hangman deals out haymakers and CHOPS! Hangman whips Scorpio but Scorpio reverses.

Kaz just misses getting that ropebreak! But close only works in horseshoes and hand grenades! Will SCU get closer after next week’s Tag Team Battle Royal? Or will Hangman and Omega have fresh challengers for AEW Revolution?
But wait, the Dark Order heads to the ring! Christopher Daniels is nowhere to be seen as Evil Uno leads Stu Grayson and the Beaver Boys down. But wait, here come Best Friends! Trent and Chuck Taylor have had their run-ins with the Dark Order, so they won’t let this go down. Wait, now MJF’s mercenaries in The Butcher, the Blade & The Bunny are here. And so are The Hybrid2! The AEW Tag Team Division is converging on one ring! But to reinforce SCU and Best Friends, it is the Young Bucks! They SUPERKICK the Beaver Boys, and a brawl is on!! It is chaos, much like what that battle royal will surely be.
Best Friends clear out TH2 while the Dark Order retreats. They and the Bucks focus on the mercs, but the Butcher double clotheslines Chuck and Trent! He dumps them out but the Bucks give out double dropkicks! And then the alley-oop dropkick for the Butcher! Allie the Bunny is upset but so is Evil Uno! Matt and Nick Jackson climb to DOUBLE LEAP onto the cluster! Will the Bucks be the #1 contenders after the chaos next week?
AEW is picture in picture as tensions still mount between all the teams. But just as Uno and Grayson want out, Orange Cassidy blocks their path! The Sloth forces them to face DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! Trent makes sure The Sloth didn’t overdo it, and they join the Bucks in the ring. The Bucks stand with Cassidy, and we have a Sweet Shin PARTAAAY~! The Bucks even give Cassidy a headband! Thumbs up, and a QUINTUPLE HUG~! So either the Bucks are honorary Best Friends of the Best Friends are honorary members of The Elite. Either way, will one of these two tandems be in line for the title opportunity at Revolution?
AEW shares Jim Ross’s interview with Santana before the show.
Good ol’ JR heard Santana’s words from last week, as did everyone, and it was obvious the passion behind them. Santana got everyone’s attention because that was the first time we’d ever heard him talk like that. Santana vowed to teach Jon Moxley what it is like to live in darkness. Could he expound on that at all?
Santana says he will tell us “a little story.” A little over 10 years ago, Santana was in the “deepest, darkest point” in his life. He was broke, jobless, directionless, living in some BS basement apartment in the Bronx. Santana felt he was buried alive. So just one night, he called his father 3:30 in the morning. Santana explained exactly how he felt to his father. And his father, who was blind at just 14 years old, had a very unique experience with living in darkness. Then his father was “stolen” from Santana. That is Santana’s life.
JR points out that the Inner Circle’s actions towards Moxley makes Moxley’s actions back retaliatory. Isn’t Chris Jericho the one Santana should be upset with? Santana says Moxley had the chance to join “the real reason this company is so successful.” Moxley built his own coffin, and Santana vows to put Moxley in the dark. Will Santana be the last nail in that coffin of the Maniac’s own making?
AEW receives another message from Darby Allin.
The Undead Daredevil is still gasping for air, so he takes a page out of Sammy Guevara’s playbook. Darby uses cardboard as cue cards to speak. “Smashing my throat with the skateboard… You made a mistake. Sooner or later, I’ll find ya. But in the meantime… Sammy, you busy at Revolution? Hit me up…” He also has a doodle of Sammy saying, “Kissing Jericho’s ass gave me herpes!” The message is clear, Darby wants to destroy the Spanish God! Will he get his chance in Chicago?
Dustin Rhodes VS Sammy Guevara w/ Jake Hager!
Speaking of Sammy, he has a rematch with the Natural! Just like then, the Big Hurt is by Sammy’s side, but will Dustin be ready for them both this time?
Austin is fired up for their hometown here at the bell, but Sammy bails out. Sammy huddles up with Hager. Hager distracts Dustin, Sammy runs in, but Dustin BOOTS Sammy down anyhow! Sammy swings on Dustin but gets tossed! Dustin hits a BIG Penalty Kick! Cover, TWO! Sammy bails out again and says he doesn’t want to do this anymore. He and Dustin go to retreat, but Dustin leaps and clobbers Sammy at the ramp! Dustin dares Hager to fight, and then gives Austin Hook ’em Horns! Sammy leaps into an UPPERCUT! Dustin throws Sammy into railing and then into the ring as as AEW goes picture in picture.
Dustin gets on the apron but Hager anchors his foot! Sammy enziguris back! Dustin stumbles down and Sammy DIVES! The cannonball tope hits Dustin at the ramp! Sammy soaks up the praises of, well, mostly just Hager. Sammy brings Dustin up and rams him into railing! The Inner Circle high-fives as Sammy refreshes the count. Sammy insist the ref stop counting, but this just gives Hager a chance to throw Dustin into the crowd! Sammy goes out to fetch Dustin, and uses a fan’s Fat Head sign to SMACK Dustin! The ref reprimands Sammy as he puts Dustin in and covers. TWO, but Sammy drags Dustin up for a fireman’s carry. Sammy does squats, then Samoan Drops! Cover, TWO!
Dustin suddenly has Sammy in a ghost pin! TWO, and Sammy LARIATS Dustin down! Cover, TWO! AEW returns to single picture as fans rally up for Dustin. Sammy aims from the apron to springboards, into a COMPLETE SHOT! Both men are down but Austin rallies up. Dustin gets up first and counter punches Sammy! Dustin whips and clobbers Sammy with clothesline after clothesline! He whips again but Sammy reverses, only for Dustin to drop down and uppercut! Fans fire up as Dustin runs in, but Sammy BOOTS back! Sammy runs out, into the spinning powerslam! Cover, TWO! Hager shouts for Sammy to get up but Dustin climbs up. Fans let him know “You Still Got It!”
Hager distracts Dustin again by standing on the steel steps. Sammy attacks from behind, drags Dustin out, FEAST YOUR EYES! Cover, TWO!! Dustin survives and Hager is furious! This is the most emotion we’ve seen from the Big Hurt! Sammy drags Dustin to a drop zone and climbs up top, but Dustin stands to trip him up! Dustin climbs to join Sammy and SUPER BACK DROPS him! Sammy flounders up and leaps to the top! Sammy grabs at Dustin but Dustin fights back, SUPER GOURD BUSTER! Dustin leaps, SUPER DESTROYER! Austin is thunderous as Dustin drags Sammy up, suplex, FINAL RECKONING! Cover, Dustin wins!
Winner: Dustin Rhodes, by pinfall
The Natural exacts revenge on Sammy, and stares Hager down. Dustin grabs a mic as Hager and Sammy head up the ramp. “Hey, turn around!” No, not you, Sammy. Dustin is talking to “Jericho’s b*tch!” Fans echo that sentiment as Hager glares at Dustin. Dustin wants to know if Hager is ever going to step into the ring, or if he’s just going to collect a paycheck. Hager is failing in MMA, and is failing in AEW before ever getting started. Hager broke Dustin’s arm so Dustin is gonna kick Hager’s ass at Revolution! Fans want to see it, so the ball is in Hager’s court. Sammy wants Hager to leave this for later, and Hager heads out. Will Hager show just how badly he’s “failing” at being a fighter?
Tony Schiavone once again interviews Britt Baker.
Fans boo as The Doctor returns. Britt gives Tony a hug and then Tony asks how she justifies what she did to Yuka Sakazaki. Is that really the “stupid” question he’s about to ask her? This interview is already going as poorly as the others… But Britt stuck to her ethical and legal obligation as a dentist: improving the overall dental health of the public. Tooth 19, aka the mandibular second molar, in Yuka’s mouth needed to go because of decay. Fans boo, not wanting to hear Britt’s technical talk and excuses. Britt says she did Yuka a favor! Especially since she did it for free. Who even is Yuka to wander out onto “our” Dynamite stage? She might not even have health insurance! Unlike “Mr. Starbucks” Schiavone. Seriously, give a hand to Tony for trying so hard.
Fans definitely are on Tony’s side, but they’re not on Britt’s. Tony asks about the coming AEW Women’s World Championship match tonight. Britt’s faced both Riho and Nyla, who does she think wins? Well, it will be a fantastic match, we will be in awe of the Native Beast and of the Wrestling Idol. But the true winner is Britt, because they’re both second compared to her. Fans boo but Britt says there’s a lot of confusion in their “chubby Whataburger faces.” She will make it easier to understand: “I am a role model.” Britt has three degrees, two Plan A’s, and the first woman to sign with AEW. “This is my division.” And what she did to newcomer Yuka is a statement. Then she insults the Longhorns with her hand gesture! Will Britt continue to do everyone “favors” from here on out?
AEW Women’s World Championship: Riho VS Nyla Rose!
The Native Beast has been on a rampage ever since being denied the title when AEW Dynamite debuted. But will she be undeniable in this newest rematch for the gold?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and Beast VS Idol begins again!
Riho rushes Nyla right away with knees and forearms! Nyla shoves her away but Riho comes back for more! Riho tries a waistlock but Nyla powers her into buckles! And then rams her with her hip attack! Nyla whips RIho corner to corner, roars and runs in, but Riho drops to roll her up! TWO and a close call! Things speed up, Nyla runs Riho over with her full body! Nyla covers, but Riho uses the Matrix escape! Riho runs but the dropkick is swatted away, and Nyla stomps Riho down. Fans boo as Nyla drags Riho up and suplexes. Riho escapes again to throw more forearms! Riho rocks Nyla at the ropes but Nyla blocks the whip to rock Riho back!
Nyal whips Riho, but Riho tilt-o-whirl headscissors! And then dropkicks Nyla out! Austin is fired up for Riho as she climbs up top. Riho LEAPS, but Nyla catches her! Nyla calls Riho a “BAKA (IDIOT)” before Nyla gives her a gutbuster! Nyla throws Riho into the apron then into the ring. Fans boo as Nyla gets a bad idea. Nyla brings out a TABLE! Shanna knows what Nyla can do with this, and fans do, too! The ref reprimands Nyla but she doesn’t care. Nyla stands the table up, but Riho runs atop it to dropkick Nyla into barriers! That only works because Riho’s so small… Riho clubs Nyla while AEW goes picture in picture.
Riho puts Nyla in the ring and then climbs up top again. Nyla stands, Riho leaps, the crossbody hits! Cover, TWO! Riho keeps her cool and brings Nyla around. Riho tries to scoop Nyla?! That doesn’t work at all, and Nyla clubs Riho on the back. Nyla scoops Riho and slams her with ease, to then drop a leg! Cover, TWO!! Riho survives but Nyla keeps her cool. Nyla drags Riho up and bumps her off buckles. She makes sure the corner cam sees it, too! Riho flounders in the corner but Nyla stomps a mudhole! And then grinds her boot in! The ref backs Nyla off and Nyla soaks up the heat. AEW goes to break as Riho is sputtering for air.
AEW returns as Nyla knees Riho hard. Nyla whips but Riho cartwheels and dropkicks! Nyla doesn’t fall and she clamps onto Riho’s throat. Riho fights back but Nyla lifts her. Riho gets around, Crucifix DRIVER! Both women are down and a standing count begins. The count climbs to 4 as both women stir. Riho reaches ropes at 6 and uses them to drag herself up. Nyla and Riho stand at 7, but Riho drop toeholds Nyla onto the ropes! Riho dials it up, 619 blocked! Nyla drags Riho in, lifts, but Riho sunset flips! Nyla sits down but misses! Riho basement dropkicks! Cover, TWO! Riho drags Nyla up but Nyla fireman’s carries for a Samoan Drop! Cover, TWO!! Riho still lives and Nyla is shocked!
Nyla drags Riho back up, suplexes, and then hangs Riho out to dry on the ropes. Nyla goes to a corner and climbs up. Fans anticipate what’s coming, and Nyla LEAPS to GUILLOTINE KNEE DROP! Fans have to cheer for that just on athletic merits. Nyla covers arrogantly, TWO!! Riho survives and Austin is thunderous for the little idol that could. Nyla whips Riho to a corner for a corner splash! Nyla fireman’s carries, then climbs the corner! Fans are worried but Riho slips off to throw palm strikes! Nyla slaps and BITES Riho’s face! Nyla brings Riho up, SUPER DEATH VALLEY DRIVER!! Cover, TWO!?! Riho survives!? No one can believe it but Austin loves it!
Nyla drags Riho up but Riho pushes back to fire off forearms! Riho won’t let up, even as Nyla swats her. Nyla Electric Chair lifts, and wants to parody Omega! But Riho fights out, full nelsons, and speaking of Omega, SNAP DRAGONS!! Riho reels Nyla in for another! Riho runs corner to corner, but misses! She hits buckles instead, and Nyla drags her up for a BEAST BO- NO! Riho escapes, Nyla wants her leg, but Riho gets free to dropkick again! Riho hauls Nyla up, NORTHERN LIGHTS?! Bridging cover, TWO!! Riho is going superhuman but this isn’t over yet! “This is Awesome!” though, as Riho is up top again. DOUBLE STOMPS!! Cover, ONE!?
Nyla flounders about but falls into another drop zone. Riho is up top once again, DOUBLE STOMPS AGAIN! But Riho won’t stop there, she’s up again… DOUBLE STOMPS!! Cover, ROPEBREAK!? So close and yet so far, in more ways than one. Riho runs, corner to corner, SPEAR from Nyla! Nyla drags Riho up again, BEAST BOMB!!! Cover, Nyla wins!!
Winner: Nyla Rose, by pinfall (NEW AEW Women’s World Champion)
An epic showdown between two of the best, but in the end, it was the Native Beast that bested her opponent! We finally have our second-ever Women’s World Champion, how long will she reign?
AEW is picture in picture as Nyla goes backstage. And after getting a congratulatory hug from Tony Khan, Nyla encounters Omega. Omega has to admit, Nyla won against his friend, Riho. Nyla doesn’t want to shake his hand, and then starts talking trash. Nyla says Omega finally notices her, right? “All your base are belong to us, Kenny.” But where is everyone else? Only a handful of women are here to celebrate? Jericho got a party with “bubbleh” and grapes! What about Nyla? Omega says it’s over, but Nyla says it is NOT over. This is just the beginning.
But is that how it is? All this disrespect since day one, but now she’s the champ! There’s not even applause! The women just stand around like idiots. Nyla pushes past Big Swole Aerial Monroe, and Omega sarcastically notes, “Great champ, guys.” Leva Bates is apparently the only one trying to be positive about the new women’s champion. Who from the locker room is brave enough to step to Nyla first?
Backstage interview with The Inner Circle.
“Mr.” Chris Jericho has big news for next week’s Dynamite. He has really big news. Jon Moxley used the car keys of the stolen Ford GT to stab Santana in the eye, he proved he is “human garbage.” It makes Jericho sick that he will have to stand in the ring with Moxley at AEW Revolution. But Jericho will, as an honorable man. But Jericho scoured the globe for “a bounty hunter” to tear Moxley apart first. So if Moxley somehow survives Santana tonight, he will face a man who has toured the world “ending careers.” It’s JEFF COBB! Santana is the darkness, and Cobb will give Moxley a Tour of the Islands. And either way, it’ll prove to Moxley he will never be ready for Jericho. See you in hell!
Yes, that’s right! Jeff Cobb is now All Elite! Will the Hawaiian Juggernaut leave nothing left for Le Champion to face in Chicago?
Brandi Rhodes joins commentary.
After seeing what her husband, Cody, went through last week with the ten leather lashes, it is hard to fathom that next week is the Steel Cage match with Wardlow. But Cody will be ready. As for MJF, he is up next.
MJF VS Jungle Boy w/ Jurassic Express!
Maxwell Jacob Friedman is actually excusing his muscle to stay in the back. He also waves to Brandi as he passes by commentary. Will MJF’s massive ego take a hit after underestimating Jungle Boy Jack Perry?
AEW returns from break, and to be fair to MJF, JB actually dismisses Luchasaurus and Marko Stunt. This will truly be 1v1 as the bell rings. MJF makes his pecs dance just to show off, but fans are all behind JB! JB and MJF tie up, and MJF waistlocks. JB standing switches but MJF switches, too. More switching and JB gets MJF down to float and facelock. MJF rolls to wrench but JB handsprings to wrench back. MJF handsprings and wrenches to a headlock. JB powers out but MJF runs him over with a shoulder. MJF soaks up the heat but JB kips right up! So MJF throws him by his hair!
Things speed up but MJF Fargo struts over JB just to show off. JB runs in, leaps over, MJF hurdles but JB handsprings and headlock takeovers! MJF headscissors but JB pops out to jackknife cover! TWO as MJF bridges and spins JB. Backslide but JB slips out to cradle! TWO and MJF cradles, TWO. DOUBLE handsprings! Fans actually have to cheer MJF on that one. MJF shoves JB but JB shoves MJF down! MJF bails out of the ring to cool off and fans troll him. JB waits on MJF and MJF slowly returns. MJF offers a handshake but we all know better than that. JB spits on his hand before shaking MJF’s. Then JB CHOPS MJF, goes up, up and away to arm-drag MJF! Then JB dropkicks MJF down!
MJF flounders to a corner and fans are all fired up for Jungle Boy! JB goes to MJF but MJF throat chops! The ref reprimands but MJF bumps JB off buckles. MJF fires off hands and stomps until the ref counts. MJF lets up at 4 to go out and pull JB out by his hair! He throws JB into railing! Fans boo, jeer and even flip MJF off but he just tunes it all out as he lounges on the apron. Arn Anderson is watching this backstage, studying on behalf of Cody. MJF mocks fans before he fetches JB for a scoop slam to the floor. MJF leaves JB behind as he goes into the ring, and AEW goes picture in picture.
The ring count begins as MJF lounges on the ropes. JB drags himself in at about 7 but MJF is on him with stomps. MJF drags JB up on the apron to bend back against the ropes in a backbreaker rack! The ref counts, MJF lets up at 4, then goes back for more! The ref backs MJF off and JB flops to the mat. MJF drags JB up and knees him down! MJF drops knees to JB’s back then puts on a half camel clutch. JB endures being bent back down, and fights his way up. JB throws body shots from all sides then rocks MJF with a right! He runs, but into MJF’s tilt-o-whirl backbreaker! Cover, TWO! MJF grows frustrated as he stalks JB to a corner.
MJF mocks fans for liking JB and stomps JB down. He stands JB up to whip corner to corner, then back drops him on the rebound! MJF swaggers over to JB in the other corner, to whip again, for another back drop! MJF cheers himself on but fans boo. AEW returns to single picture as MJF puts JB back in a corner. MJF wrenches and whips yet again, but JB reverses, to give MJF a back drop! Fans fire up again as JB rests in the corner. MJF runs at JB but JB boots him away. JB elbows, forearms and uppercuts MJF! MJF blocks the whip and throws JB to ropes, but JB LARIATS! MJF bails out, JB builds speed, JB DIVES! Direct hit but JB keeps going, another DIVE! JB wants the third, and he FLIES! The tope conjilo hits and Austin is thunderous!
JB puts MJF in the ring, drags him up, but his back won’t let him lift MJF. MJF clubs JB then back suplexes. JB lands on his feet and hops up, POISON-RANA! Cover, TWO!! MJF survives and JB grows frustrated. Fans rally up for JB as he drags MJF up. JB fires himself up to try again, but can’t get MJF up all the way. MJF drags himself to a corner as JB clutches his back. JB runs in but is put up. JB headstands but MJF SUPERKICKS and Alabama Slams! MJF copies another Cody move with the underhooks and inverted Gory Especial! JB endures and pops out, then rolls MJF up! TWO!! JB ducks and boots MJF then rolls up top! MJF staggers up to trip JB!
“Hey, Brandi! You can have a real man!” MJF is vile as he climbs up to join JB. JB resists the superplex and fights MJF back! JB flips over, RUNNING POWERBOMB!! Cover, TWO!! JB was so close and yet so far! Wait, Wardlow reappears from the crowd! JB slaps and clubs MJF at the ropes but the ref backs him off. Wardlow sneaks MJF the Dynamite Diamond Ring! MJF waits for JB to come close, DIAMOND RING PUNCH! Fans boo as MJF drags JB back up. MJF dragon sleepers, for DOUBLE CROSS! Cover, MJF wins!
Winner: MJF, by pinfall
The Salt of the Earth wins with his parody of Cody’s move. But this isn’t the end, as Wardlow drags JB up into a fireman’s carry, for an F5!! But here come the Jurassic Express! Luchasaurus backs Wardlow down while Marko checks on JB. Wardlow and MJF leave, because Wardlow has his Steel Cage match with Cody next week. Will the American Nightmare get back at MJF’s muscle for everything the two have done?
AEW again hears from PAC.
“Word on the street, Kenny, is that you’re done.” That Omega is a “shadow of who you once were, on a slippery slope to mediocrity.” The truth is, Pac knows Omega hasn’t been the same since that loss in Chicago. And Pac understands why Omega’s confidence is shot and his negligence has grown. All of Omega’s problems are all because of Pac. The Bastard is the best, and that haunts Omega. Omega is scared. “As ya f***in’ should be!” But there’s no more running, no more hiding. Two more weeks, and we have the Ironman match to prove who is the best! Isn’t Omega lucky?
BREAKING NEWS for next week’s Dynamite!
While there will be a #1 Contenders Battle Royal, the AEW World Tag Team Championships are on the line again! Hangman and Omega will take on the Lucha Brothers, Pentagon Jr and Rey Fenix! Will the gold change hands so close to Revolution?
Jon Moxley VS Santana w/ Ortiz!
It has been eye for an eye between The Maniac and the Inner Circle, and that might be as true as it’s ever been here tonight! Le Champion leads Sammy and Hager to their VIP box while Proud ‘n’ Powerful are together at ringside. Will Moxley survive Santana to then take on Jeff Cobb? Or will everyone witness the end of the Paradigm Shift?
Since Moxley’s usual path is blocked by the Inner Circle’s VIP box, Moxley comes out from the complete other side of the audience and on the ground level! Santana doesn’t even let Moxley get to the ring, he attacks at the railing! Moxley drags Santana over to join him and the brawl is happening in front of the fans! The two throw hands as the ref and Ortiz hurry after. Moxley rams Santana into more railing, and then throws big forearms. Santana throws forearms back but this match isn’t even official yet! Santana kicks Moxley to barriers, then runs in, but Moxley back drops him to ringside! Moxley drags Santana up to throw into railings on the other side!
Ortiz gets in Moxley’s face but Moxley doesn’t sweat him. Moxley CHOPS Santana and things finally enter the ring. The bell sounds and Moxley clotheslines Santana in a corner! Moxley CHOPS Santana all around but Santana hits back. Moxley fires off forearms and knees but runs into Santana’s elbow. Santana whips but Moxley reverses to send Santana out with a clothesline! Ortiz checks on Santana but Moxley climbs up, to LEAP! The huge elbow takes out Santana! Moxley drags Santana up to throw haymakers and follow around the way. Santana sends Moxley into steel steps!

Santana hits Moxley away, builds speed and wrecks him with a dropkick! Ortiz laughs at Moxley and the Inner Circle applauds as AEW goes picture in picture again.

Both men take a moment to check their eye patches before Santana clamps onto Moxley with a chinlock. Moxley endures, even as Santana rakes his good eye! The ref reprimands, the two men stand up, and Moxley pries free to throw forearms from all sides! AEW is single picture as Moxley whips but Santana reverses, only for Moxley to rally with lariats! Moxley whips again but Santana kicks him away! Santana swings but into one underhook. The bad eyes make it hard to find the other arm, but Moxley gets the backslide. TWO, but Moxley has the one arm for a FUJIWARA! Santana endures as Moxley pulls back. Santana fights up, rolls and boots Moxley away!
Moxley ducks Santana’s punch to GERMAN SUPLEX Santana away! Ortiz coaches Santana while the rest of the Inner Circle is worried. Moxley runs corner to corner but Santana boots him away! BUCKLE SHOT!

Hager has Moxley up in the arm triangle, then KNEES Moxley low! The Inner Circle puts Moxley in the drop zone for Sammy to climb up and 630 SENTON! Hager drags Moxley back up as Jericho takes off his fancy jacket. JUDAS EFFECT! Jericho “covers” Moxley and Ortiz “counts,” Jericho “wins.”
Wait, who is Jericho calling for now? JEFF COBB IS HERE TONIGHT!? The bounty hunter debuts on AEW a week early, and he reels Moxley in for a TOUR OF THE ISLANDS! The Inner Circle only gets stronger thanks to the addition of the Hawaiian Juggernaut! Will there be anything of Moxley left by the time we get to Revolution?
My Thoughts:
An amazing episode for AEW Dynamite tonight! I really liked that they again opened with an amazing tag team match for the titles. It was great to see Hangman & Omega retain, and it is an interesting move for SCU to be a bit more Heel in the match-up. It is also of note that the SCU disappeared during all that brawling with The Dark Order and the other AEW tag teams. Evil Uno’s message about their newest members being closer than you’d think, could it be that the SCU are already part of the faction? Is Daniels going to be the Exalted One if it isn’t Matt Hardy? Also, with another AEW World Tag Team title match next week, will Hangman & Omega retain to face The Dark Order in some capacity?
The Women’s World Championship was incredible! This could’ve been on the PPV as is! And Nyla winning actually felt right. I wish TNT had let us hear her promo backstage so we could get context of what might be building between her and Kenny Omega. Omega VS PAC is coming, and PAC had a great promo tonight, but maybe after Revolution, AEW makes history by having Omega VS Nyla as a co-ed feud? Britt had a very strong promo tonight, and I honestly laughed at her line about Whataburger. She might still move up to challenge for the title, even if Nyla is Heel just like Britt.
MJF VS Jungle Boy was a great match, and I agree with commentary in saying these two young stars are going to be among the biggest names in wrestling in just a few years. Of course MJF cheats to win, though, but that was some classic Heel work. Wardlow is being a henchman for now but I would love to see him and Luchasaurus have a series of matches.
Dustin getting a win back on Sammy was great, and we’ll finally get Dustin VS Hager at Revolution. Darby calling out Sammy was a great promo, and I would hope we get that match for Revolution. The Inner Circle is definitely becoming a force to be reckoned with. I am so glad to see Jeff Cobb got off the sinking ship that is ROH to join AEW! Mox VS Santana was a great match tonight, Mox VS Cobb is going to be just as good, if not better. And Moxley running this gauntlet to get at Jericho, this is some great stuff.
My Score: 9.3/10

Toni Storm is here!
Or rather, she’s still here given just last night, the TIMELESS AEW Women’s World Champion won a Fatal 4 Way Eliminator. And now she’s in the special box seat “balcony” with mic in hand. Detroit cheers and she blows kisses before saying, “So many men have taken a shot at me in here, I’m feeling like Abraham Lincoln. I will never forget my first. It was messy, it was sweaty, and painful. But I only wanted more. Once a month, once a week, twice a week, I was hooked. But then, it only became more risky. One at a time, then two at a time. And three at a time! Incorporating random objects, all the while being watched by perverts.”
The fans cheer being perverts but then Toni says, “One day, it will not end well for me. It will break my body and soil my soul. But in the end, I know it’s what I was born to do. And if you think I was referring to sexual intercourse, then get your minds out of the gutter!” Toni takes a moment before she continues, “Because the best bang could not compare to fighting for this!” She holds up the title and the fans cheer more! “I am not waiting for a Hayter or a CEO. So next week, line up the next batch of slop tarts, because baby wants to binge!” The fans also like the sound of that! Toni says spit on it and sit on it, and let’s get TIMELESS~!
The fans applaud and Toni takes a bow. Beach Break just got that much bigger, but who will take their shot at The Tramp that is The Champ?
Backstage interview with Paragon.
Lexy Nair is with Adam Cole, Roderick Strong & Kyle O’Reilly to ask them about the 2 Out of 3 Falls last Saturday. Roddy says that to say they’re disappointed is an understatement. He and Kyle are one of the best teams on this planet, and they thought it’d be like riding a bike. But it has been a bit more difficult than they thought. Kyle agrees that they’re frustrated and disappointed, but what they aren’t doing is taking anything away from themselves. They’re the Paragon and they’re still one of the best tag teams out there. And any other day, any other time, 99 out of 100, Kyle & Roddy win that match.
Cole agrees, and he knows that was tough last week. But they are one of the best teams in the world. There will be plenty of chances to prove that this year. But in step the Grizzled Young Veterans and Zack Gibson says say that again. He can’t believe Paragon has the nerve to stand here sulking and complaining. Honestly, this three are three of the best ever. The problem is, they’ve gone soft! They’ve forgotten what it is to fight for their sport. So any time they’re ready, GYV will remind them what that’s like. Kyle & Roddy say why not. GYV will be the first time that gets stomped on Paragon’s way back to the top!
GYV laugh that off then take their leave. But when and where will Liverpool’s Number One & Mr. Mayhem take on the Savior of the Backbreaker & the Violent Artist?
Ricochet VS Angelico w/ Serpentico!
The One & Only just got a big win last night alongside the Young Bucks, but now he looks to get a win on his own. Will Ricochet make Detroit #OuttaThisWorld two nights in a row? Or will tonight belong to Spanish Announce Project’s South African Stud?
The bell rings and the fans rally as Angelico and Ricochet circle. They feel things out, circle more, then Angelico leaves Ricochet hanging by smoothing his hair.

Ricochet gets up on the barrier to soak up more heat, and he even flicks sweat off his bald head! Ricochet puts Angelico in the ring, stalks him to ropes, then CHOKES him! The ref counts, Ricochet backs off, and Serpentico coaches Angelico. Angelico sputters but Ricochet brings him up for a snapmare. Ricochet digs his knee into Angelico’s back as part of the chinlock. Angelico endures, fights up, and fires body shots. Angelico is free, runs the ropes, but Ricochet DROPKICKS him down! Ricochet taunts the fans, covers Angelico, TWO! Angelico is tougher than that but Ricochet covers again, ONE! And again, ONE! And again, ONE!!
Ricochet throws a fit and SLAPS Angelico down before arguing with the ref. The ref defends the count, so Ricochet just stomps away on Angelico’s back! Ricochet taunts the fans, goes back to stomp Angelico and kick him around, then he kicks Angelico to the ropes. Angelico rises to BODY BLOW! And JAB! Ricochet staggers back, Angelico fires more shots! Angelico runs, KICKS the backdrop away, then runs again, only for Ricochet to FLAPJACK him off ropes and JUMPING NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO!

The fans boo but Ricochet runs for a STANDING SHOOTING STAR! Cover, TWO! Ricochet just keeps going, dragon sleeper for the VERTIGO!! Ricochet rolls back, locks ‘n’ loads, and SPIRIT GUN!! Cover, Ricochet wins!
Winner: Ricochet, by pinfall
Ricochet made sure Angelico was done before he got the 1-2-3, and now he gets the mic. “Go ahead. C’mon, I can’t hear you! I can’t hear you!” The fans boo and taunt him more and Ricochet says he welcomes it all! Their boos mean NOTHING to him, because he sees what they cheer for. And c’mon, if you cheer for the Detroit Lions, that means you’re dumb as hell. If you were smart, if you had any amount of common sense, you’d be cheering for him! The fans keep taunting him with “They’re Not Bald!” But Ricochet says the Eagles won the Super Bowl, what’re they talking about? They should be cheering him, because he’s been here less than a year and he’s beaten most of the favorites!
Brody King, Will Ospreay, Mike Bailey, Kevin Knight, Mark Briscoe, Swerve Strickland, and even Kenny Omega! All of them are AEW legends, and Ricochet beat them all! But wait, speaking of legends… Ricochet points out the living legend, Zach Gowen! Ricochet remembers growing up, watching wrestling, he was a huge fan of Zach Gowen. Huge fan. He remembers when big Brock would beat him up and down the arena, that was awesome. But the thing is, Daddy Gowen used to be on this side of the barriers, but now he’s on the other side of them. What happened, Zach? Doesn’t have a leg in the fight anymore?
Ricochet laughs at his own offensive joke, and then asks where that fire is now. He pushes Zach around, security rushes in and Ricochet says he wasn’t doing anything! They’re just talking! Then he BOPS each and every guard! They like that? Ricochet THROWS one guy into railing! Ricochet does his own commentary as he sends another one into the steel steps! Then he puts the third one in the ring, and says Zach might like this. The fans boo but now Ricochet brings out THE SCISSORS! Ricochet cuts this guy’s hair up! But Zach jumps into the ring!! The fans cheer as Zach snatches the scissors from Ricochet!
The fans cheer as Zach asks what is wrong with Ricochet! Ricochet says sorry, sorry! But then he KICKS Zach’s leg out! And then SPIRIT GUN!! The fans boo even more but Ricochet isn’t done with Zach. He takes Zach’s prosthetic leg away! The fans boo as loud as they can as Ricochet leaves with the leg! Ricochet isn’t just humiliating Zach Gowen, he’s committing a crime! Ricochet holds the leg up as a trophy, then mockingly limps with it. Will anyone ever humble the ego that is #OuttaThisWorld?
8 Man Tag: The Don Callis Family VS The Outrunners, Bandido & AR Fox!
Don Callis himself dared Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd to find a friend so they could settle things with Roppongi Vice and the Family, but the Outrunners did better than that! They found TWO friends! Will the Most Wanted ROH World Champion and the Whole Fox’n Show help the Youngest Men Alive humble Callis’ cronies? Or will Trent Beretta, Rocky Romero, Lance Archer & Kyle Fletcher use them to take out all of their frustrations?
Callis of course joins commentary while the teams sort out. Callis calls tonight “Don Callis Championship Wrestling,” and says Detroit boos him and his Family because it is a city of losers.

BREAKING NEWS for Beach Break!
After the assault and humiliation that we saw earlier tonight, Zach Gowen is going to make his return to wrestling! Will Zach get revenge on Ricochet for taking things too far?
Jon Moxley speaks.
“So, we’re through the obligatory preamble, casualties on both sides. Last night, you took out my number one lieutenant. Now I could vow revenge and talk about all the things I’m gonna do to Samoa Joe once I get him inside that steel cage. But that would be rather rote, and probably mostly untrue. What do we know? The consensus is Samoa Joe is gonna kick my ass. And yeah, there’s nobody on the planet better at getting their ass kicked than me. The question isn’t whether Joe will beat me up. The question is, how long can he do it? Five, eight minutes? Ten? 20? 25? I’ve got all night.
“I know you don’t think very much of me, Joe, but you are one of the guys that I have genuine respect for. You are the embodiment of a champion. But you’re not the AEW World Champion, I am. And I know that no matter what happens to me inside that steel cage in Chicago, no matter what Hell is put on me, no matter what I am put through in that steel cage, I know I have been through worse. I have been through the kind of Hell, I have weathered the kind of storms, I have faced down the kinds of demons that would keep these kids up at night. So I don’t need to be feared or respected by you or anybody else. I just need you to show up.
“I don’t get along with the rest of the world because I am not like the rest of the world. And believe it or not, next week, there is nowhere else in the world I would rather be than locked inside a steel cage in Chicago with the AEW World Championship hanging in the balance, with the baddest man in pro-wrestling, Samoa Joe. I didn’t build my foundation on sand. When the storm comes through, the only thing that matters is who is the last man standing.” The Maniac has issued his ultimatum, will he ultimately be the baddest man in AEW?
Anthony Bowens w/ Billy Gunn VS Lee Johnson w/ Blake Christian!
The Pride of Pro-Wrestling is ready to prove he’s worthy of all the opportunities before him, but that means having others step to the plate. #BigShotty thinks he can get a hit off the 5 Tool Player, but will he be able to go yard? Or will he just get Molly Whopped and sent back to the dugout?
The bell rings and the fans rally behind Bowens. Bowens and Lee tie up, Bowens wrenches and wristlocks, but Lee wrenches back. Bowens slips through, wrenches and hammerlocks, then he spins and snapmares Lee to an Oklahoma Roll! TWO, and Bowens tries a cradle, TWO! Lee is up to headlock back, but Bowens powers up and out. Lee goes up and over, baits Bowens into a waistlock, but Bowens switches. Lee switches, then he shoves Bowens! “You’re nothing!” The fans boo and Bowens scowls. Lee talks more trash, but Bowens CHOPS Lee off his feet! Bowens stalks Lee to a corner, CHOPS again, and the fans “WOO~!”
Bowens CHPOS again, and again, and again! Bowens then stomps a mudhole into Lee! The ref counts, Bowens steps off at 4, and Bowens apologizes. Lee bails out, Bowens pursues, and Lee tries to apologize. But then Lee bumps into Daddy Ass! Lee looks and sees Billy, apologizes to him now, but Bowens ROCKS Lee! Bowens whips Lee hard into barriers and the fans fire up! Bowens puts Lee in the ring, but Lee kicks low! Lee eggs Bowens on, whips, but Bowens hurdles and mule kicks! Front kicks! FAMOUSER! The fans fire up and Bowens wrenches to lift Lee, SWING OUT FACEBUSTER! Cover, ONE?!?
Billy is annoyed, but then Blake gets on the apron! Bowens backs the Vanilla Babyface off, but then he dodges Lee’s sneak attack! Bowens fireman’s carries, Lee slips free and shoves Bowens to ropes. Billy wants after Blake but the ref keeps him back. Bowens ELBOWS Lee away, but Blake swipes at him! Lee then DUMPS Bowens out! Bowens staggers up, Lee FLIES, and he gets just enough of Bowens to take him down! Then Lee and Blake mock the scissor fingers! The fans boo but Lee puts Bowens in the ring. Lee reels Bowens in, suplexes, but Bowens slips free! Bowens shoves Lee away, runs up, and he blocks the boot! But not the ENZIGIRI!
Lee SUPERKICKS Bowens, runs, but into the Rock, Paper, Scissors, SUPERKICK! The fans fire up and Bowens shows them how it’s done! He puts up the scissors, then shouts for his shot! But Blake gets on the apron! Bowens grabs Blake, Lee rolls Bowens up with tights, TWO!! MOLLY WHOP!! Cover, Bowens wins!
Winner: Anthony Bowens, by pinfall
Blake tried to tip the scales, but then he also storms into the ring! Billy gets in Blake’s way and Blake backs up. Blake “apologizes,” but then he takes a swing! Billy stops that and TOSSES Blake out! Billy says “SUCK IT!” Bowens grabs a mic to tell Detroit, “What you just saw was the Pride of Professional Wrestling! The perfect combination of power, athleticism, intelligence, the look, and The It Factor. And I am in a really good mood, so y’know what? Billy, throw ’em up! Detroit, throw ’em up! And make some noise!” And they SCISSOR FINGER~! For old time’s sake, Bowens embraces the old gimmick. But will nothing stop Bowens from making himself a contender?
The Gates of Agony are here!
Detroit cheers as Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona walk out to the ring, but they grab mics so they can talk. Kaun calls out Bryan Keith & Big Bill. “You think you’re gonna walk through these Gates unscathed, unburned, and redeem yourselves in the eyes of Chris Jericho?” The fans boo and Kaun says, “Hell no, Paradise has to be earned. And these Gates right here? They’re gonna stop you in your tracks.” Liona says, “And this time, we’re not doing it in a parking lot! Y’know why? Because we’re in Detroit! Why not do this right here, right now!?” The fans cheer and Liona tells Big Bill & Bryan Keith, you heard the people! Get out here and fight!
The shirts come off, and here come the Redwood & Bad Apple! They go right to the ring and the brawl is on! The fans fire up as Bill has Kaun and Keith has Liona! Bill hammers away on Kaun in a corner, Liona ROCKS Keith, but Keith roars! Keith runs, only for Liona to LARIAT him down! Bill BOOTS Liona down! Bill goes out after Liona, but then Keith LARIATS Kaun and himself up and out of the ring! Bill and Liona brawl, Linoa shoves Bill into railing and CLUBS him! Keith and Kaun brawl on the floor, Liona SMACKS Bill off steel steps! Liona fires up, the fans are torn, and Liona runs in, only for Bill to send him into railing! In fact, Liona goes over the railing!
Keith staggers but Kaun keeps after him. Kaun brings Keith to the ramp but Keith elbows free! Keith runs but Kaun fireman’s carries! SAMOAN DROP down through tables!!

Liona wobbles, but then he roars! Liona SPEARS Bill off the stage and down through tables!! The fans lose their minds all over again! The Gates and the Branches are down around ringside, is the Learning Tree impressed watching this at home?
AEW hears from Anna Jay & Harley Cameron, as well as Penelope Ford & Megan Bayne.
The Queenslayer says, “Megan, you really like to pick fights, huh? I don’t care how big you are, how hard you hit, I will wrap my arms around you and make you sleep!” The Superbad Girl says Anna has been gone a long time, and the Megasus says things have changed. There is a new animal in this jungle, and having a pure heart, fat ass and good friends isn’t gonna cut it.

Before they take on Will Ospreay & Hangman Page for Beach Break, The Alpha & Walking Weapon are going to make an example out of the Cowboy’s former friends. Will this be the end of The Dark Order once and for all? Or can Evil Uno & Alex Reynolds survive despite not having the Numbers?

Who will the two mystery participants be? And will anyone be able to score on the Whore We All Adore this close to Double or Nothing?
Daniel Garcia VS Dax Harwood w/ Cash Wheeler & Stokely Hathaway!
For the longest time, Red Death respected FTR and FTR respected him. But after FTR selfishly betrayed Adam Copeland and put themselves ahead of everyone else, Garcia could not stand by and do nothing. Garcia dared one of the Top Guys to step up, will he take that Top Guy out? Or will this (emotionally) hurt FTR more than it hurts Garcia?

He’s allowed to do that, right? The fans still taunt Dax with “BALD! BALD! BALD!” Dax stands Garcia up, reels him in, but Garcia fights the lift! Dax pulls on Garcia’s hair to then CHOP him! Garcia bails out, Dax pursues, and Dax brings Garcia around.
Dax talks trash on the fans, then reels Garcia in. Garcia fights the lift again, trips Dax up, and then CATAPULTS Dax into the POST! The fans fire up while Dax falls in a heap!

Garcia puts up his dukes, does his dance, and then runs in for a DROPKICK! Dax hits barriers, but Garcia runs again! Another DROPKICK into the barriers! And then a third DROPKICK into the barriers!

The fans boo as Cash says no more! Garcia seethes, and he still runs up, but Dax LARIATS Garcia down! Cash bought Dax time, and now Dax huffs ‘n’ puffs through his crimson mask. Dax puts Garcia in the ring, then he grabs the ring bell! The ref stops Dax and they tug-o-war over it! Dax lets the ref have the bell, but then Garcia trips Dax! Garcia steps through, and he turns Dax over for the DRAGON TAMER!! But Stoke distracts the ref, letting Cash drag Garcia out! DRAPING NECKBREAKER to the floor!

My Thoughts:
A great Collision, but it apparently caught a bit of the Go Home Syndrome. There were quite a few recap packages I skipped but clearly they are working to hype Beach Break for next. Moxley’s newest promo was alright, didn’t really add much, because as I said just last night, Moxley surely finds a way to retain with help from The Death Riders. I will say, it made a lot of sense for the remaining Death Riders to cost Willow. Marina and Willow still have beef, and I’m still hoping on my idea from last night: Shayna Baszler shows up, teams with Marina, we get Shayna & Marina VS Willow & Kris. Let’s up the ante and get another classic Street Fight Tag out of Kris & Willow.
Great promo from Toni Storm to open the night, and good to hear Skye Blue is back. Another Fatal 4 Way Eliminator makes me wonder if one of the mystery entrants ends up taking the loss. There was also that spider during Kris VS Willow, which I believe is a teaser for Thekla. Thekla could easily jump into the Fatal 4 Way and get close to winning, but who knows. And as I said last night, not sure why they’re holding Athena back from doing much of anything right now. With Supercard of Honor now delayed to July to coincide with All In: Texas, Athena should really be getting involved more on AEW TV so people don’t forget she exists.
Very good stuff with Bowens VS Lee, and I appreciate the albeit lazy way they changed Bowen’s logo so that it doesn’t resemble the Shane Taylor Promotions’ STP. Bowens of course wins, but his promo after was pretty much the same as his other ones. At least he did one last scissoring with Billy. Bowens is unfortunately not going to get a title story right now with all the champions preoccupied in something else. Though honestly, I feel like there is a way for Okada VS Bowens to be a great match, and then someone violates the Continental Rules so that Okada loses without really losing. Best way I can think of is Swerve is hunting The Bucks, they go ringside, and since Bucks are associate with Okada, that’s a violation on his part, and it adds more heat to whatever big thing Double or Nothing has planned.
Great stuff from the Don Callis Family in all their matches. I wasn’t expecting a big 8 Man Tag, and I’m a little disappointed Brody King wasn’t one of the participants, but maybe that’s the next phase. Great showing from the Faces, especially AR Fox. Fox is in a similar boat to Bowens where he certainly deserves title opportunities but TK just isn’t seeing how to write it. But between that and the dominance Konosuke & Alexander over Dark Order, it feels like the Don Callis Family get their comeuppance with Hangman & Ospreay winning next week.
Ricochet VS Angelico was rather outta nowhere but it was still a great match. It was also clearly a vehicle so Ricochet could start beef with Zach (Zack?) Gowen and give us a Beach Break match between them for the real deepcut long time wrestling fans. Much like Bowens and Fox, I feel like Ricochet is waiting on a title to be freed up from story so he can go get those titles. Such as Paragon now feuding with Grizzled Young Veterans for a minute, which in a way keeps Adam Cole isolated. TK should’ve just given us Ricochet VS Cole for the fun of it because Ricochet VS Cole would be incredibly fun stuff. They could even revisit their NXT history if they wanted to.
Great stuff with Gates of Agony and Learning Tree, that was much better than last week’s. I really hope this gives us a Tornado Tag match. For that matter, why aren’t we getting that in the story of Anna Jay & Harley Cameron VS Megan Bayne & Penelope Ford? Good promo from those teams to hype up… just Anna VS Megan… It’d make Beach Break Collision feel all the bigger but whatever, maybe they feel Ford still isn’t up to speed after that Fatal 4 Way last night. But doing a chaotic tag match could help iron out some of that so that Ford can just focus on what she is good at with the gymnastics and throwing hands.
And awesome stuff with Garcia VS “Dax the Axe” in the main event. And yeah, I didn’t put it in myself, but they’re really committing to that as Dax’s ring name right now. Great to see Menard helping Garcia, and even Nigel standing up for himself against Dax. A “No Contest” result was a little odd but I suppose that’s like saying it is a draw where no one goes over. But with the Faces standing tall, maybe Nigel steps in and teams with Garcia right now for Double or Nothing so that Garcia teaming with Cope is the All In moment.
My Score: 8.8/10

PLAY BY PLAY
Hangman Page is here!
Motor City fires up for that #CowboySh*t as the Men’s Owen Hart Cup finalist makes his way out to the ring. Hangman grabs a mic and says, “I don’t know that I’ve ever understood, after everything that I’ve done, why even one of you would cheer for me, but…” The fans cheer and chant for “COWBOY SH*T!” and Hangman continues, “I just want to let you know that it does make a difference, so thank you.” The fans applaud and Hangman says he probably shouldn’t have to say it, but the past two years for him have been “some kind of special Hell.” And after what happened to his family, he wanted revenge, he wanted justice, and he’d found it!
Hangman took from another man his only hopes and dreams, and Hangman nearly killed him! And after their steel cage match, Hangman stood at the top of the ramp and thought he’d finally feel some kind of joy, some kind of closure, to an awful chapter of his life. But he felt nothing. Hangman thought that maybe if he went and finished the job, he’d have his closure, but he couldn’t do it! The fans now chant, “Tell Us Why! Tell Us Why!” Hangman says he doesn’t know why. But since he couldn’t find that closure, he took that anger, bottled it up, and he unleashed it on anyone who got in his way, because he thought that’d give him catharsis! But all it did was tear down everyone around him!
“So I had to make a decision. Swerve Strickland…” The fans chant for “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” Hangman tells Swerve that he will never forgive what Swerve did to him. And he will probably never forget. But for Hangman, he will have to put it behind him. Hangman made his decision to enter this year’s Owen Hart Cup, and he defeated Josh Alexander in the first round, and then in front of his friends and family, Hangman defeated Kyle Fletcher in the second. And finally, at Double or Nothing, for a chance at the AEW World Championship, Hangman wrestles who everyone says is the BEST wrestler in the world, Will Ospreay.
The fans cheer, and then here comes Ospreay! Detroit fires up even more as the Aerial Assassin walks to the ring to be face-to-face with the Cowboy. The fans are losing their minds just from these two staring down! There’s also a “Happy Birthday!” chant for Ospreay. Ospreay apologizes for interrupting Hangman’s “therapy session,” but isn’t it a bit strange the amount of promotions they’ve both been part of, and this is the first time they’ve even spoken to one another? Just for Ospreay, it is a pleasure to meet The Hangman. And in that same breath, Ospreay wants to apologize, he sees Hangman’s been through a lot.
Ospreay’s seen it with his own eyes, and he’s seen it through the fans’ eyes. “We have watched your journey, my man. I understand how much this match means to you. I get it. I’ve seen it. We’ve all seen it. One of my favorite moments in wrestling, mate, one of my favorite moments is when you took these misfits known as The Dark Order, and you showed ’em leadership, and you showed ’em what it takes to be a cowboy, bruv.” The fans cheer that! Ospreay says from there, how Hangman rode that support and became THE AEW World Champion, “mate, it was perfect!” The fans also cheer that.
But Ospreay continues, “It’s just, after you lost it, everything changed, didn’t it? I understand. I get it. You’ve had a rough couple o’ years. I spotted something last week. Last week, after you beat Kyle Fletcher, I and these people saw something we ain’t seen from you in a long time. You smiled again.” The fans cheer that, too! Ospreay says we hadn’t seen that from The Cowboy in a long time. And while everyone here, including Ospreay, really wants Hangman to beat those demons and go reclaim his spot as the “main character” of AEW, Ospreay has a problem with that. At Double or Nothing, Ospreay is not losing.
See, while Hangman has been finding himself, he’s been tearing this place apart! Does Ospreay even need to mention Jeff Jarrett, Christopher Daniels, or even one of Ospreay’s best friends, Swerve Strickland? See, Ospreay has been doing all of Hangman’s jobs! Has Hangman been doing media? NOPE, Ospreay’s been doing it! Has Hangman been doing meet ‘n’ greets? NOPE, Ospreay’s been doing it! Has Hangman been taking photos with kids and their families? NOPE, Ospreay’s been doing it! And the best bit of it is, when they ring the bell, Ospreay is the one showing AEW is where the best wrestle! OSPREAY, NOT HANGMAN!
And what? All because Hangman is smiling again, all because Hangman’s found himself, he thinks he can just take that spot back? That don’t mean Cowboy Sh*t to Ospreay, bruv! The fans are torn, but Ospreay says all of this, he understands it is about Hangman’s redemption, but it is far too little and far too late! This is not about Hangman’s redemption, this is about Ospreay’s ascension! Ospreay and Hangman get up in each other’s face, but then The Don Callis Family shows up! With Josh Alexander, Lance Archer, Konosuke Takeshita, Rocky Romero & Trent Beretta at his back, Don Callis has a mic to say, “Y’know, Ospreay…!”
The fans boo a lot but Callis continues with how every day, Ospreay shows us just how stupid he is! The dumbest day of Ospreay’s life was when he left the Don Callis Family! The fans tell Callis off but Callis says just to prove how stupid Ospreay is, does Ospreay even know what is standing in the ring with him? Does he even know what that is next to him!? Callis will tell ya! “That is a violent, mentally unstable sociopath who put his mentor in the retirement home and he can’t walk!” The fans boo, Hangman is riled up but Ospreay has Hangman stand down. The fans again tell Callis off.
Ospreay says he’s already had enough of Callis’ talking! Why not do us a favor, Callis, and bring any two of your guys down to the ring right now so Ospreay and Hangman can- But then Hangman brushes Ospreay’s hand away. Callis says he sees what’s going on here. But y’know what? Hangman and Ospreay can’t even get through a segment together without wanting to kill one another! This is the first good idea Ospreay’s ever had! Callis will take any two members of his family to put against Ospreay & Hangman, so long as Hangman doesn’t have another mental breakdown before next week!
The fans boo more and they tell Callis to STFU. Ospreay and Hangman stare down as the Callis Family leaves, but what hand will be dealt this close to Double or Nothing?
FTR visit commentary…?
Cash Wheeler, Dax Harwood & Stokely Hathaway just walk over, and #BigStoke has the mic to tell Tony Schiavone, “Lemme ask you a question.” The fans boo but Stoke asks Schiavone if he has an issue with FTR. Does Nigel McGuinness have an issue with FTR? Because if Stoke recalls correctly, FTR issued an apology. But week after week after week after week, Schiavone has something negative to say about them, and more importantly, something negative to say about Stokely! The fans boo but Stokely says last Saturday Night Collision, Schiavone said Stoke was a snake in the grass! A snake in the grass…!
But y’know what Schiavone is? He’s a decrepit, pale, pasty piece of- Schiavone stops Stokely there and says that’s enough. The fans cheer for Tony, and Tony stands to ask Stokely & FTR to politely leave. But Stokely SHOVES Schiavone! Schiavone gets back up but FTR stand in the way. Cash tells Tony to relax! He’s so tense! Loosen up a bit. This isn’t even about Schiavone. Daniel Garcia says he wants answers, but why did FTR do what they did to him? He gave them no choice! Garcia made that decision himself. FTR saw themselves as father figures to Garcia, and Garcia turned his back on them!
So like Cash’s father taught him, sometimes you learn lessons the hard way! Tomorrow night, Thursday Night Collision, here in Detroit, Cash promises Garcia that it’ll hurt them a lot more than it will Garcia… emotionally. The fans boo, but Dax smirks as he says, “Tony… Tell Nigel we’ll see him tomorrow night. Top Guys, out.” FTR leave, but will they survive their Collision with Red Death?
Harley Cameron and Anna Jay talk backstage.
The wild Aussie tells the Queenslayer that tonight, Anna goes into battle and comes out with a title match! Don’t think about anything else! Anna says Harley’s had her fat ass’s back out there, and she’ll have her fat ass again tonight, right? With both hands! Harley has the T, Anna has the A! Tenacity and aggression! Uh, yeah, and the other kind. Those, too! So Toni Storm, Thunder Rosa, Penelope Ford, “Who wants to get choked out!?” YEAH! That was definitely the closing line! Giddy-up! Anna hops onto Harley and they head to gorilla! Will Anna prove she’s the Star of the Show? Or will Dynamite still be Timeless?
AEW Women’s World Championship Eliminator Fatal 4 Way: Toni Storm VS Penelope Ford VS Thunder Rosa VS Anna Jay!
The bell rings and Anna goes right at Ford, still wanting to settle scores from the past few weeks! Rosa and Toni stay back a moment, still allied as ThunderStorm/ThunderTits. Ford and Anna go to the outside, and Anna sends Ford into railing! The fans fire up, and now the friendly rivals tie up. Toni headlocks, Rosa powers up and out, but Toni runs her over!

ThunderStorm mugs Ford, then puts her in the ring. They drag Anna up, scoop for the BACKBREAKER and LEG DROP! Rosa covers but Toni stops her! Toni covers, but Rosa stops her! They argue, Toni kicks low, and then Toni TOSSES Rosa! Toni goes back for Ford, headscissor squeeze!
Ford endures but Rosa returns. Toni apologizes but Rosa grabs her for a headscissor squeeze! Now Toni endures, but Anna is back! Anna grabs Ford’s legs, powers up, and she turns the chain over! Ford endures multiple submissions, but Toni is still stuck between Rosa’s legs! Anna can’t hold on any longer, she lets go and everyone is separated!

Winner: Toni Storm, by submission (denies her opponents a title opportunity)
Toni’s Classic Move gets the job done, and Rosa shows respect with the secret handshake and chest bump. The Timeless AEW Women’s Champion is 12-0, but will she be ready for whoever comes out of Arizona as the Queen of Harts?
CRU appears ringside.
As Dynamite returns from break, Lio Rush & Action Andretti decide they want to watch the show in person.
The Hurt Syndicate is here!
Detroit fires up as Montel Vontavious Porter, Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin make their entrance. The fans sing, “We Hurt~ People!” as MVP & the AEW World Tag Team Champions go to the ring. MVP has the mic and says, “Attention AEW viewing audience. This is an official announcement from the Hurt Syndicate. Standing to my right is the Standard of Excellence, Shelton Benjamin. And to my left is the All Mighty, Bobby Lashley. The Hurt Syndicate are the AEW World Tag Team Champions. But I have a question. This is AEW, right? This is where the best wrestle, right? Well, where are all the best tag teams stepping up to challenge us for the tag team championships?
“Who is gonna take the tag team titles off of these two gentlemen? We like to hurt people, but who’s gonna hurt us? I wanna know! Is there anybody that has what it takes to step up and take the titles from the Hurt-” Wait! Top Flight is here! Darius & Dante Martin have mics, and Darius tells MVP, “Look, look, look, look, look. I’ma be real. Top Flight, we’ve been a little down on our luck lately. Which is exactly why we can’t look at this challenge and not see it as an opportunity. Teams like CRU are afraid to step up because you hurt people.” MVP says, “That’s what we do. Would you like to be next?” CRU talks trash even though they’re several rows back…
Darius says that’s fine, they’ve been hurt before. They get up every single time! MVP respects that. Darius says you’re looking at a team that just won’t die! Hurt Syndicate can try their best. And they know they’re the underdogs. They know no one’s gonna put money on them. But guess what? They have proven before that they can get in the ring with championship caliber teams and hold their own. And Dante knows they can do it again. So Motor City! Y’all wanna see a miracle? The fans are torn, but then MJF CLOBBERS DARIUS! And he DECKS Dante! The fans are torn but the Scumbag is ready to show Lashley how he can hurt people!
MJF rains down fists on Darius, stands him up, and POSTS him! MJF drags Dante up, and Dante’s already a bit busted open. MJF throws hands on Dante to work on that wound, then he storms over and BITES Darius’s face!! The fans chant “We Hurt~ People!” as MJF stands Dante up. MJF tells Lashley to look at the blood! MJF reels Dante in, and hits an APRON POWERBOMB! MJF storms up to the apron, blood staining his tank top, and he steps to Lashley. The fans fire up as MVP hands MJF a mic. “I! HURT! PEOPLE!!” The fans cheer that, but Lashley is stoic. Lashley takes the mic from MJF, then looks to MVP.
The fans again sing, “We Hurt~ People!” Lashley sees what MJF has done, and he smiles. “I’ll have an answer for you next week.” The fans boo, but MJF takes what he can get. Will the All Mighty accept the Devil of AEW into the fold?
The Elite speak.
Nicholas Jackson does not appreciate Excalibur cueing them up, and tells the commentary team to have more enthusiasm when you’re pitching to your Founding Fathers! Matthew says they should all have enthusiasm right now because it is a huge night for The Elite! We have the Rainmaker in singles action! Kazuchika Okada tells Kevin Knight that tonight, Okada makes him a b*tch! And of course, their new trios partner, Ricochet. But Matt has to ask, this match was Ricochet’s idea. Why is Ricochet so eager to team with the #YoungBizzles? Ricochet says he knows The Bucks have a little Swerve problem. And Ricochet has already beaten Swerve twice.
That means Ricochet has Swerve’s number! And Ricochet has already beaten “Speedball” Mike Bailey and Mark Briscoe, and so if they just follow his lead tonight, he promises to take them to victory! The Bucks like the sound of that, and they all fist bump. They tell him they’ll see him out there, and Ricochet says, “See you, Bosses!” Ricochet heads out, The Bucks go to their office, but wait! The Death Riders are there…! Is there something The Bucks can help them with? The Bucks step inside, Marina Shafir closes the door. What business will The Maniac AEW World Heavyweight Champion have with the EVPs?
ROH World Television Championship Mystery Opponent: Nick Wayne w/ The Patriarchy VS ???
Right as The Prodigy is about to take off for Japan and the NJPW Best of the Super Juniors tournament, it would seem the “Sins of the Father” will be visited upon him. Someone from Christian Cage’s past wants after this title, but that’s a long list of enemies. Will Nick be able to pass this new test of his faith? Or will he be flying to Japan with much lighter luggage?
AEW returns and the challenger is revealed: IT’S RHINO!! The fans go wild as the manbeast from Michigan is here! The belt is raised, the bell rings, and Detroit is already fired up as Rhino and Nick circle. The two tie up, Rhino SHOVES Nick down, and the fans fire up! Nick bails out and is already frustrated, but Christian coaches him up. Nick goes back into the ring, circles with Rhino, then dodges. Nick kicks low, throws hands, then runs, but Rhino runs him over! The fans fire up as Rhino whips Nick to a corner. Rhino runs up, Nick BOOTS him, then Nick goes up to MISSILE DROPKICK! Nick flexes but the fans boo.
Nick storms up to stomp Rhino in the corner but the ref counts. Nick digs his boots in while the fans rally behind Rhino. The ref has Nick back off, but then Nick clamps on a chinlock. The fans boo but Rhino endures and fights up. The fans rally as Rhino fires body shots, but Nick throws him down by his hair! The ref reprimands but Nick picks out the strands on his fingers. Nick soaks up the heat, then STANDING MOONSAULTS, only to FLOP as Rhino moves! The fans rally and Rhino rises up. Rhino fires haymakers on Nick, then whips and LARIATS Nick down! Nick gets up but Rhino ELBOWS him down!
Rhino whips Nick to a corner, runs in and RAMS him! Then Rhino clinches for a BELLY2BELLY! The fans fire up but Christian is worried. At least, he acts worried. Kip Sabian distracts the ref and Christian goes after Rhino! The fans boo but Rhino avoids being tripped up. Nick runs in, Rhino still hits him with a SPINEBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Nick survives and Rhino is annoyed but the fans rally up. Rhino goes to a corner, takes aim, and Nick rises up. Rhino runs up but is sent into buckles! Nick then chicken wings, KILLSWITCH! Cover, NICK WINS!
Winner: Nick Wayne, by pinfall (still ROH World Television Champion)
Rhino had to deal with distractions and Nick comes out on top! Christian snatches the belt from the ref to personally hand it to Nick, but not without “explaining” he was doing this for Nick’s own good. The fans call BS, especially as Christian lingers with the belt. Nick asks for it back, Christian just drops it on the floor! Will Nick’s time in NJPW for the BOSJ be much needed time away from his jealous father?
Rush speaks.
El Toro Blanco tells Kevin Knight, “You cost me $100,000, and now you owe me that money! And you will pay with blood! Just remember: When you mess with the bull… you get the horns!” Rush has put Knight on notice, but will Knight focus more on earning a golden ticket to the Continental Championship?
Six Man Tag: Ricochet & The Young Bucks VS Swerve Strickland, Mark Briscoe & “Speedball” Mike Bailey!
Well, if we’re talking about being “robbed” of $100,000, then The One & Only knows what that is like when he lost that big money 8 Man a few weeks ago. Ricochet has since then avenged himself of that loss, much like he has with Swerve’s House. But will Ricochet & The EVPs make tonight #OuttaThisWorld? Or will The Most Dangerous Man help the Sussex County Chicken & Speedball be like Swerve’s new track and go #OuttaControl?
The trios sort out and fans cheer on “Whose House?” as Swerve steps up against Ricochet. Ricochet taunts Swerve and his team that he’s got their numbers, but then Swerve points out how The Bucks seem to be inching away. Ricochet turns around and sees that, and asks what they’re doing! The Bucks say Ricochet’s got this, right? Ricochet argues with them, they push him back, and Swerve DECKS Ricochet! And then DECKS him again! And again, and again! Swerve kicks low, fires more hands in the corner, then stomps away! The fans fire up, Swerve HAMMERS Ricochet, but the ref counts.
Swerve lets off of Ricochet, then fireman’s carries for a SNAKE EYES! Swerve runs and BOOTS Ricochet down! Swerve scares The Bucks off, then goes back for Ricochet. Tag to Briscoe and then Briscoe tags Bailey. The Bucks are warry of them, too, and then Swerve has Bailey hop up onto his shoulders in a Chair Lift. Then Swerve THROWS Bailey at Ricochet to RANA! Briscoe adds a SLIDING LARIAT! Bailey covers, TWO! Ricochet stays in this, but Bailey SLAPS him on his bald head! The fans fire up for that! Bailey drags Ricochet up, whips, but Ricochet reverses. Bailey grabs ropes, Nick runs up, but Bailey DECKS him!
Ricochet runs up but into an ELBOW! Matt grabs Bailey’s foot, Bailey kicks free, but Ricochet CLOBBERS Bailey from behind! The fans boo but Swerve runs in! Ricochet gets Swerve for a JAWBREAKER! Ricochet then whips Swerve into a DOUBLE GAMANGIRI from The Bucks! Briscoe runs up but Ricochet KNEES him! The Bucks coordinate, ALLEY-OOP DROPKICK! The fans boo more but Ricochet & The Bucks set everyone up at the ropes! DOUBLE SLINGSHOT SENTONS from The Bucks to Swerve and Briscoe, Ricochet KNEE-BOARD SENTONS Bailey! Then The One & Only poses with The Bucks while the fans boo.
But uh, Swerve’s team stands up! The Elite turn around, see punches coming and run away! The fans fire up but Ricochet & The Bucks huddle up. They talk strategy, go to the apron, but then The Bucks leave Ricochet alone like before. Bailey BOOTS Ricochet and he falls onto The Bucks! The Bucks scramble up to their feet, as does Ricochet, but Bailey SUPERKICKS Ricochet! Swerve’s team all take aim, DOUBLE PLANCHA for The Bucks while Bailey ASAI MOONSAULTS onto Ricochet! The fans are thunderous for all this high flying, and Swerve’s team keeps after The Elite with punches. Briscoe even BITES Matt’s forehead!
The ref reprimands, Bailey puts Ricochet in the ring and whips him corner to corner hard! Tag to Briscoe and he winds up. “This is Awesome!” as Briscoe REDNECK KUNG-FU UPPERCUTS! Ricochet wobbles, Bailey adds a CANADIAN TAE KWAN DO UPPERCUT! They’re very similar. Then Bailey & Briscoe DOUBLE UPPERCUT Ricochet down! The fans fire up more, and Briscoe brings Ricochet around, only for Ricochet to TOSS Briscoe out! Nick PENALTY KICKS Briscoe! Swerve runs up, but Ricochet sends him into a shoulder RAM from Nick! Nick then hits a slingshot FACEBUSTER! And a cartwheel MOONSAULT onto Briscoe!
Ricochet hits a GERMAN SUPLEX on Swerve! Matt intercepts Bailey, ROCKS him, then drags him out along the ropes! Nick goes up, DRPAING DOUBLE STOMP SLINGSHOT BOMB COMBO!! Nick ESCALARAS onto Swerve! Ricochet springboard 450 SPLASHES onto Bailey!! Detroit can’t help but be fired up for all this, and Dynamite goes picture in picture!
The Bucks & Ricochet soak up cheers and jeers, then they focus on Briscoe. They double whip him corner to corner, and Nick runs up to LARIAT! Matt adds his own LARIAT, and then Ricochet adds another LARIAT! Ricochet snapmares Briscoe so they can TRIPLE BASEMENT DROPKICK! Ricochet winds it up, and then just like last time, The Bucks lend Ricochet their hair for the photo op. It doesn’t really work as well this time, it just gives Ricochet a big runway and two long curtains on the side… The Bucks then go to the corner and Ricochet whips Briscoe in. Briscoe hits buckles hard then slumps down.
Matt tags in and he stands Briscoe up. Briscoe fires body shots and backs Matt down, but Matt scoops to BACKBREAKER! Nick tags in and adds the LEG DROP! Nick taunts Briscoe’s team, Ricochet taunts the fans, and Nick drags Briscoe back up. Nick scrapes his soles off Briscoe’s face, then stalks him to a corner. Nick CHOKES Briscoe with a boot, stops as the ref counts, and then whips Briscoe corner to corner. Nick runs in and SHINING WIZARDS! Briscoe sits down but Nick stands him up to reel him in. Nick suplexes, Briscoe slips free, and RUSSIAN LEG SWEEPS! Both men are down and the fans rally up!
Briscoe and Nick crawl, but then Matt BLASTS Swerve & Bailey! Nick tags Ricochet and Ricochet stomps away on Briscoe! Ricochet soaks up heat, then stalks Briscoe to a corner. Briscoe CHOPS him first! And CHOPS him again! Ricochet CLAWS Briscoe’s eyes! The ref reprimands, Ricochet stops, only for Ricochet to CHOKE Briscoe on the ropes! The ref counts and Ricochet stops again while Dynamite returns to single picture. The fans rally but Ricochet reels Briscoe in. Briscoe fights the lift, so Ricochet CLUBS him and KNEES him for it!

Bailey brings Matt up, hits a FALCON ARROW into the drop zone, then he goes up the corner!
Nick hurries over to anchor Bailey but Bailey BOOTS him away! Matt bails out, so Bailey FLYING RANAS Nick onto Matt! The fans fire up as The Bucks both fall down! Bailey puts Matt back in, hurries back up, and the fans cheer “A E DUB!” for making this match happen! Bailey is up top, and he ULTIMATE- NO, he has to bail out as Matt moves! Bailey turns around as Matt runs in, but into a SPANISH FLY! Cover, Ricochet breaks it! The fans boo but Swerve storms in! Ricochet ROCKS Swerve, but Swerve BOOTS Ricochet! Both men block a boot, then they see Briscoe and Nick running in! Both men let the other go so they can each go Matrix!

Winners: Ricochet & The Young Bucks, by pinfall
Swerve is as shocked as anyone! After all the chaos, it was a technical move that ends this! Ricochet brags that he still has Swerve’s number! Will nothing stop The One & Only from being as elite as The Elite? The, THE Elite?
Backstage interview with Will Ospreay.
Renee Paquette is now with The Aerial Assassin to bring up the tag match of Ospreay & Hangman VS Don Callis Family. We saw how tense it was out there earlier tonight, and they’re so close to the Owen Hart Cup finals at Double or Nothing. How will this shake out next week? Ospreay hopes to God that- MJF interrupts… MJF asks “Billy Boy” how he’s doing, but then says it doesn’t matter, he doesn’t really care. MJF just wants to do a shameless plug real quick: Go to ShopAEW.com to get yourself a beautiful replica Dynamite Diamond Ring today! Make him richer while you get poorer! Ospreay asks what MJF even wants.
MJF says, “What I want? Will, what is up with all this hostility, my man? I’m a fan. I came over here simply to tell you I hope you win this whole entire Owen Hart Cup tournament. Truly. And do you wanna know why? I know you’re a little bit slow, so I’ll explain the whole thought process to ya. I want you to go to All In: Texas, and I want you to win my AEW World Championship. So that way, when I wrestle you, I’m gonna get another easy dub. Taking the belt off you will be like taking candy from a lil’ Bri’ish baby.” Ospreay says, “Aww. That’s adorable, mate. Thank you so much. But if it was gonna be that easy, why weren’t you in the Owen Hart Tournament?”
Ospreay says MJF can work hard, right? And he could’ve easily talked with Tony Khan. MJF is in TK’s pocket, right? Oh, right, it’s maybe because there’s some little bit of fear that stepping into the ring with Ospreay again will go down like it did last time: Ospreay picking MJF up, dumping him on his head, and losing power in his arms. MJF chuckles and says okay. Understand something. Ospreay is clearly the reason there are instructions on shampoo bottles. MJF will explain this: MJF hopes they do wrestle again. Because if they do, Ospreay finds out yet again that ain’t nobody on the level of the Devil!
MJF turns to leave, but Ospreay yanks him back in! Ospreay says that’s where MJF is wrong. Ospreay IS on that level, because he is on another level! The Assassin puts the Scumbag on notice, then apologizes to Renee. Will we see MJF and Ospreay go another round somewhere down the line? Or will Hangman throw a wrench into both of their plans?
Sit-down interview with Jamie Hayter.
Dynamite returns as Renee is now with one half of the Women’s Owen Hart Cup Finals. Renee says we’re just two-and-a-half weeks away from Double or Nothing, Hayter VS Mone in that tournament finals. The winner then goes on to All In: Texas for a shot at the AEW Women’s World Championship. Renee wants Hayter talk about what this opportunity means to her. Hayter says what this means to her surely means more than what it does to Mercedes, that’s for true. Mone was talking with Renee last week about “Scooby-Doo characters” and her legacy. Pfft! Utter nonsense. Hayter will be damned if Owen Hart’s legacy is represented by Mercedes Mone.
Mone is virtually the antithesis of what Owen stood for! Hayter doesn’t even care about all that, though, because she wants to get to know the real Mercedes Mone. The woman behind the hype. Not the catchphrases, not the brand, not the cheap, egotistical, obnoxious woman that we know today. Renee says regardless of personal feels for Mone, there is no denying what Mone has accomplished throughout her career. Renee notes her talk last week, Mone said Hayter reminded her a lot of Mone. Hayter stifles a laugh and says that’s an insult. They’re not anything alike! Hayter doesn’t claim to be the best or worst, she’s not claiming to be this or that.
Hayter simply reciprocates actions and energy. Mone runs away like she owes Hayter money! Hayter doesn’t have Mone’s resumé, her accolades, her match catalogue or her “star power.” But what Hayter has is integrity, grit, truth, and more of a reason to hurt Mone! This isn’t even about gold or glory now. This is about showing Mone that she is NOT untouchable. Mone cannot just walk around here, do what she wants, say what she wants, like she’s the second coming. Renee does bring up Hayter’s time away with her back injury. Hayter says there’s no need to talk about that. It is irrelevant. She is fine, good to go.
The point is, Mone is looking past Hayter, and that is fine. But then Mone rushes in and attacks! Hayter is ready, and Hayter chases Mone down the hall! So far, it’s going how Hayter said! But will it be that easy for Hayter to punch her ticket to Texas? Or will The CEO find a way to get ahead?
Wait, wait, wait, they’re coming out to ringside! They’re brawling in the special box seats! Hayter CHOKES Mone, but Mone slips away, and safely to the floor! Mone keeps running, Hayter pursues, and they brawl again! Mone still tries to flee, and she KICKS Hayter away! Mone goes to the stage, Hayter pursues, and then Hayter blocks a haymaker! Mone dodges the Hayterade and runs away into the night! Hayter says there she goes, running away again. Hayter stands by the cup, but Mone returns to CLOBBER her! The fans boo as Mone puts on the STATEMENT MAKER!! Mone shouts Hayter will NEVER have what she has!!
Refs rush out here to stop Mone, but Mone only stops once she’s pulled Hayter way back! The fans boo as The CEO now stands by the cup. Will nothing stop the Money Train from railroading Hayter?
Backstage interview with Willow Nightingale.
Alicia Atout is with the Babe with the Power and says the last few months for her have been really busy. It includes some great success, even in Japan. But here in AEW, it seems Willow still has a lot to settle with the Death Riders. Willow says yeah, she does. And luckily, she isn’t alone. The list of people who wanna end the Death Riders just keeps getting longer and longer, and Willow can appreciate that. But she also wants to be the first one to just shove her fist into Marina’s face! A hand reaches out, Willow gets spooked, but it’s Kris Statlander! Kris tells Willow that if Willow doesn’t wanna talk in the back, then they’ll have to have it out on camera.
Willow says she doesn’t think there’s anything that needs to be said. She heard Kris, she gets where Kris is at, and she gets Kris was sorry. So like, what? Kris is now disappointed she lost in The Owen? Last year, Willow could’ve won The Owen, and it’s all because of Kris. Kris doesn’t want Willow going there, but Willow says this conversation is over anyway. Kris goes to leave but then Willow reconsiders. She says if Kris wants to meet in the middle of the ring… Then how about tomorrow night, Thursday Night Collision, here in Detroit, Willow knows a whole bunch of sickos would love to see it! So what does Kris say?
Willow offers a handshake, Kris accepts the handshake, and Kris says if there’s nothing more to be said, then see her there. Kris does leave, and Willow smiles. Will these former besties get out all the tension between them when they go 1v1 on Collision?
AEW Continental Championship Eliminator: Kazuchika Okada VS Kevin Knight!
The Rainmaker told The Jet that he’s going to humble him, but jets are know to still fly through the rain. Will Okada cross another name off the list of contenders? Or will Kevin be feeling #2Flyy as he also prepares for Best of the Super Juniors?
Wait, Rush attacks Knight during his entrance! The fans boo but El Toro Blanco is making good on his warning! Dralistico is also here so La Faccion Ingobernable mugs Dralistico! Security rushes out, Dralistico fires hands on them, and Rush stands Knight up. Rush tells Knight that he said he’d pay! Knight is sent into the steel steps! And then into railing! And then railing again! Security steps in but Rush still CHOKES Knight! But Bailey rushes out here to SUPERKICK Dralistico! Bailey dares Rush to fight him now but Rush shoves Knight down. Rush tells Bailey he’ll be next. LFI falls back, but what about Knight’s opportunity with Okada?
Okada is nonchalant about all this as Knight says no, he doesn’t want to give this up. Bailey helps Knight with his jacket, and Knight manages to roll into the ring, so the match IS on. But now Bailey has to leave ringside per Continental Rules, so he wishes his friend good luck. The bell rings, and Okada runs up to ELBOW Knight! Okada kicks Knight low and hits a DDT! Cover, TWO! Knight is still in this and the fans fire up! Okada is amused, and he drags Knight up to Alabama Lift. Knight sunset flips through, TWO! Okada and Knight stand up and Knight fires a forearm! But Okada DECKS Knight!
Okada whips Knight to ropes, and then FLAPJACKS! Cover, TWO! Knight stays in this and now Okada’s annoyed. Knight goes to a corner but Okada storms up on him. The fans duel as Okada kicks at Knight. Okada drags Knight up, gut wrenches, but Knight fights free! Knight ROCKS Okada with forearm after forearm! Knight UPPERCUTS, the fans fire up, and both men go to corners. Knight runs in but Okada puts him up top! Okada DROPKICKS Knight down to the apron and then Knight falls to the floor! Knight writhes and Okada just waits inside while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
The ref checks Knight but Knight refuses to let this stop the match. Okada goes out after Knight, brings him up, and RAMS him into the railing! Okada laughs at the fans, especially a little girl in the second row. Okada drags Knight up, RAMS him into the railing again, and then laughs at the little girl again! The little girl gets upset and hides behind her mom while Okada goes back to the ring. Okada waits as the ring count climbs. Knight crawls towards ringside at 5 of 10, drags himself up at 7, and rolls in at 8. Okada is right on Knight with a turn and NECKBREAKER! Okada lets Knight writhe a bit before standing over him.
Okada SLAPS Knight! Knight glares up at Okada, but Okada SLAPS him again! Knight rises, Okada SLAPS him again! Knight comes back to CHOP Okada! Okada brushes that off, so Knight CHOPS again! Knight fires a forearm, Okada fires back, and Knight wobbles! Okada ROCKS Knight and puts him in a corner. Okada digs his boot into Knight’s neck, and practically pushes him out of the ring! The ref reprimands but Okada backs off. Knight sputters on the apron, Okada goes back to bring him in, but Knight fires body shots! Okada UPPERCUTS Knight and Knight falls back down! Okada stands Knight up to whip corner to corner.
Knight goes up, up, and FLYING LARIATS! Both men are down and Dynamite returns to single picture. The fans rally for both men as they rise, and Knight roars! Knight runs and SPLASHES Okada in a corner! Knight stomps and UPPERCUTS on repeat! Then Knight stomps a mudhole into Okada! The ref counts, then backs Knight down. The fans boo, but Okada pokes Knight in the eyes! The fans boo more, but Okada whips Knight. Knight reverses to SKY2HIGH! Cover, TWO!! Okada survives and Knight is frustrated. The fans rally, Knight rises again while Okada goes to a corner. Knight runs in, but Okada BOOTS him!
Okada goes up, but Knight jumps up to the UPPER ROOM! The fans fire up as Knight somersaults and UFO SPLASHES! Cover, TWO! Okada stays in this, proof of his championship caliber toughness. But Knight roars, runs up, only for Okada to fight the Satellite DDT into a REVERSE NECKBREAKER! Okada drags Knight up, scoops and SLAMS, then he goes to the corner! Standard formula says MACHO ELBOW! The fans fire up as Okada stands, and Okada winds up the… MIDDLE FINGER~! The fans are torn, and Okada oddly censors his own middle finger for some of the fans. Okada drags Knight up, ripcords, but Knight reels him in for a cradle! TWO!!
Okada is up, Knight has him for a backslide! TWO! Okada is back up, he spins Knight, but Knight hurdles the lariat! Then Knight PELES! Okada falls and the fans fire up again! Knight hurries to a corner and he climbs up! MOTHERSHIP SPLASH onto knees!! Knight sputters as Okada saves himself! Okada grits his teeth, drags Knight up to whip, but Knight avoids the dropkick! Knight runs, but Okada BOOTS him! Both men roar and the fans fire up! Okada UPPERCUTS, whips, but Knight reverses and DROPKICKS! Both men are down again, but Knight still rises! The fans are thunderous as Knight goes to the corner!
Knight springboards in, but into an ANTIAIR DROPKICK!! Ripcord and RAINMAKER!!! Cover, Okada wins!
Winner: Kazuchika Okada, by pinfall (denies Knight a title match)
Give the assist to Rush, but The Rainmaker still gets the job done. Wait, now he drags Knight up for another RAINMAKER!!! The fans boo as Okada shows no mercy! RAINMAKER again!!! And then another ripcord, but Knight falls! And then here comes Bailey! Speedball runs Okada off, but Okada still has a smug smile. Knight has to catch a flight to Japan, but will Bailey make sure Okada pays for his arrogance?
The Don Callis Family speaks.
Don Callis himself says, “The Outrunners tried to challenge RPG Vice? Who do you two idiots think you are? Y’know, I was wrestling in the ’80s, I knew a lot of dirtbags like you! So why don’t you get yourselves a couple of other stupid idiots to be your partner, and you can take on the Don Callis Family, and I will kick your ass all the way back to Tennessee like it’s 1983!!” Wait, did he say he will? Well, will Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd find someone willing to take on
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!
It has been decided that Dax Harwood will take on Daniel Garcia in response to his challenge last week. Will Dax the Ax make good on FTR’s word to make this one hurt? Plus, after the confrontation we saw between them, Bailey will take on Dralistico as payback for what LFI did to Knight! Will Speedball strike out the Prince of Silver? And speaking of baseball terminology, the 5 Tool Player is about to throw some heaters at “Big Shotty” Lee Johnson for stepping to the plate last week. Will Bowens make sure to #MollyWhopp Lee back to the dugout?
BREAKING NEWS for Beach Break!
The Don Callis Family has decided: Konosuke Takeshita & Josh Alexander will take on Hangman Page & Will Ospreay! Can Cowboy and Assassin coexist? Or will the Owen Hart Cup Finalists fall to The Alpha & The Walking Weapon?
Backstage interview with The Hurt Syndicate.
Alicia catches MVP, Lashley & Shelton on their way out, and brings up Lashley telling everyone that we have to wait until next week to find out if MJF is officially getting the thumbs up. Can’t he just let us know now where things stand now? Lashley says he is very protective of the Syndicate, but apparent legal counsel advises him to say no more. The answer will be made public next week. MVP introduces longtime legal counsel to the Hurt Syndicate, Harrison Landow. And well, when he speaks, they listen. See you next week. The Syndicate heads out, but will MJF’s attack on Top Flight have been in vain?
Samoa Joe VS Claudio Castagnoli!
The Samoan Submission Specialist and The Opps have been putting The Death Riders on the defensive, and Joe himself has accused Jon Moxley of no longer having the guts to fight a real fight. Moxley took offense to that remark last week, but he will still let his Swiss Cyborg handle things first. Will Claudio soften Joe up for Moxley and that Steel Cage title match? Or will Joe prove it is the Death Riders who are soft?
The fans already sing, “Joe is gonna kill~ you!” but Claudio takes his time entering the ring. The bell sounds, the fans rally up, and the two circle. They tie up, go around, and Joe powers Claudio back. Claudio turns things around to put Joe in the corner, then he grinds his forearms in. The ref counts, but he has to get in there to back Claudio off. Claudio eggs Joe on, the two circle, and they feel things out. They tie up, Joe powers Claudio back, and they end up on the ropes. They go around, end up in a corner again, with Joe in control. The ref counts, he backs Joe off, but Claudio throat chops! The ref reprimands and fans boo but Claudio goes after Joe!
Claudio fires fast hands from all sides and the ref counts. Claudio UPPERCUTS again and again until the ref reaches 4. The ref backs Claudio off, but Claudio jukes him, only for Joe to dodge Claudio! COQUINA CLUTCH!! Joe has Claudio by the head, but Claudio steps through the ropes! The ref counts, Joe lets go at 4, but then Joe LARIATS Claudio down! Joe goes out to then whip Claudio into barriers! Joe storms up, whips him again, and Claudio hits railing hard! The fans fire up and Joe SMACKS Claudio off the top of barriers! Joe CHOPS Claudio, refreshes the ring count, but Claudio scoops to SNAKE EYES off the barriers!
Joe sputters and falls while fans boo, but Claudio RAMS Joe into barriers! Claudio UPPERCUTS Joe, then gets space. Claudio runs back in, but into the URENAGE to the floor! The fans fire up while Claudio writhes. Joe aims at Claudio, runs in and BOOTS Claudio! The fans fire up and Joe brings Claudio into the ring. Joe stalks Claudio but Claudio goes to the apron. Claudio then RAMS into Joe, RAMS him again, and UPPERCUTS! Claudio JABS, CHOPS, and JABS again! Claudio CHOSP, but now Joe is getting mad! The fans rally as Claudio UPPERCUTS and CHOPS, but Joe CHOPS, CHOPS, and CHOPS!
The fans “WOO~” with every CHOP, then Joe whips corner to corner. Joe runs up and ELBOWS! And PELES! Claudio sits down, the fans fire up, and Joe snarls. Joe has Detroit behind him as he hoists Claudio up top. Joe CHOPS again, then tucks Claudio in! Claudio fights that by CLAWING Joe’s eyes! The ref reprimands, Claudio stops, but then Claudio jumps down to HOTSHOT Joe’s arm! Joe falls back, Claudio hurries in, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Claudio stomps Joe down, then paces around. Claudio HIP DROPS Joe, then clamps on a chinlock stretch! Joe endures, even as Claudio pulls on the hold. Joe fights to his feet, but Claudio wrangles him back down! Claudio grinds Joe down with the side headlock, then adds an arm for a straitjacket! Joe endures, fights up, and HEADBUTTS free! Joe ROCKS Claudio, CHOPS him, then runs, only for Claudio to BOOT him down! Claudio goes to a corner, goes along the ropes, and then SPRINGBOARD ELBOW DROPS! Cover, TWO! Joe survives and Claudio is furious, but the ref defends the count.
Claudio pushes Joe back down, runs and DOUBLE STOMPS! Cover, TWO! Claudio is frustrated but this is why Joe is a former AEW World Champion, and why he dethroned the Death Riders as AEW World Trios Champions. Claudio drags Joe back around to DOUBLE STOMP! And DOUBLE STOMP! And DOUBLE STOMP again! Claudio then clamps on with a COBRA CLUTCH! Joe endures and the fans rally up. Joe stands, but Claudio fires knees down low! Joe drops to his knees and Claudio squeezes tighter! Joe still endures but Claudio grinds him down to the mat! The ref checks but Joe is still in this.
Joe rises up, Claudio wrangles him again, but he also smothers Joe! The ref reprimands, Claudio lets go and “apologizes,” mockingly asking for clarification on what was wrong. Claudio then clamps back on with the Cobra Clutch as Dynamite returns to single picture. The fans chant at Claudio, “You Suck!” Joe fights up but Claudio throws knees! Claudio goes back to the Cobra Clutch and thrashes Joe around! Joe endures, the fans rally, and Joe fires hands! But Claudio fires more knees! Claudio runs, but into a SNAP POWERSLAM! Cover, TWO! Joe whips Claudio to a corner, then reels him in for an atomic drop!
Joe runs to BOOT Claudio down, then SENTONS! Cover, TWO! Claudio stays in this but Joe stays focused. The fans rally behind Joe and he brings Claudio up. Joe fireman’s carries but Claudio slips free, and he shoves Joe at the ref! Joe stops short, but then Claudio pokes Joe in the eyes again! Claudio runs, runs, and runs to LARIAT! Cover, TWO!! Joe survives and Claudio grows frustrated. Claudio drags Joe up, reels him in, but Joe BACKDROPS free! Claudio lands on his feet! Claudio dodges Joe, springboards and FLYING UPPERCUTS! Claudio snarls while fans are torn, and Claudio calls for it! Claudio grabs the legs, but Joe kicks free!
Claudio staggers, Joe turns him around and reels him in by his tights! COQUINA CLUTCH!!! CLAUDIO TAPS, JOE WINS!!
Winner: Samoa Joe, by submission
The Swiss Cyborg got caught, but here comes reinforcements! Joe dares the Death Riders to make a move, so Wheeler Yuta jumps the barriers! Marina and Moxley follow, they’re flanking the ring! But WILL HOBBS is here! And the Powerhouse is armed with a chair! The fans fire up as The Opps have the numbers and the “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” Moxley backs away, but Hobbs tells him, “Watch this!” Claudio stands up, into a CHAIR SHOT! Claudio falls and the fans want “One More Time!” Joe says okay, and Hobbs SMACKS Claudio again! Moxley seethes but he is still standing at the barriers.
Joe sets the chair down, drags Claudio over, and Joe gives Moxley one more chance to do something. Moxley doesn’t move, so Joe hits a FULL METAL GOURD BUSTER!! Joe avenges Hook and Shibata, but will Joe save all of AEW from Moxley’s reign of terror? Or will The Maniac find a way to survive Beach Break in the Windy City?
My Thoughts:
A great episode of Dynamite here, but not without odd choices. CRU continue to be chihuahuas barking at bigger dogs, and then oddly enough, Top Flight kinda do the same thinking they’ll get at Hurt Syndicate for the titles. MJF going after them to “hurt people” made for a fitting move in that moment, but then Lashley making us wait and them bringing in some lawyer for the Syndicate is disappointing. Are they really dragging this out for Double or Nothing? Why not give us the “moment of truth” tonight, then next week has some sort of official “swearing in,” and then we get shenanigans that give us a Double or Nothing match. I feel like TK’s sense of pacing continues to be a problem…
Good promo from FTR and Stokely to call out Schiavone & Nigel as well as Garcia, and Dax VS Garcia will be great stuff. I still sense Adam Copeland returns to join Garcia and settle things with FTR. Good promo from Willow to call out Marina and the Death Riders, and I like the segue back into the Willow-Kris story. They’ll have a great match tomorrow, but I don’t know what’ll happen with it if Willow is to also still feud with Marina. Unless newly released Shayna Baszler shows up to team with Marina, Kris & Willow getting on the same page doesn’t seem likely. Side note, Shayna and Marina should be part of the ROH Women’s Pure Championship tournament.
Great promo from Hangman and Ospreay to open the show, looking back on continuity and even getting a bit meta with the “main character of AEW” stuff thrown around. But of course The Don Callis Family wants after them and all their other enemies. Konosuke & Alexander VS Ospreay & Hangman will be awesome stuff for next week, but I feel like Alexander takes the loss so Ospreay and Hangman both head for Double or Nothing with momentum. Then with Roppongi Vice and I assume Lance Archer facing The Outrunners, I feel like my idea of Brody King teaming with Truth & Turbo is going to become a reality. It just makes sense given Brody had that brawl with Archer last week.
Great promo from Harley and Anna before the Fatal 4, and then a great Fatal 4 match. Ford was a touch off on those pinfall breaks but that was a minor thing. Naturally, Megan got involved, which cued Harley to do the same, and clearly we’ll get Megan & Ford VS Harley & Anna in a great tag match. Toni winning out is fine, but it just seems odd they did this at all. I still hope Athena steps up so we can have Champion VS Champion at Double or Nothing to go double or nothing on titles. And then with how Hayter VS Mone is going, there’s still a chance we can go all in at All In with Mone putting up at least the TBS title against both the AEW & ROH Women’s titles.
But given the great interview promo from Hayter and the obvious ambush from Mone, there’s also still a chance Hayter VS Storm happens as a rematch from long ago. Then Mone and Athena can still go title for title in Texas as TBS Championship VS ROH Women’s World Championship. Very good stuff with that open challenge for the ROH World TV title, and it was great for Rhino to be in his hometown. But naturally, whoever was showing up would be cheated out of the win. Nick Wayne is going to bring that title with him to Japan, I just wonder if he’s bringing The Patriarchy with him. At the very least, Christian should keep AEW viewers up to date with every little win or loss Nick has in the BOSJ like the overbearing and jealous father he is.
Great promo from The Elite & Ricochet to hype up their matches, and what an intriguing move to have The Death Riders meet The Bucks in their office. Though, they didn’t light the scene very well, I only knew it was The Death Riders from Claudio’s bald head and white shirt. And then of course when it was Marina closing the door. But we got an awesome Six Man Tag of Ricochet & Bucks VS Swerve, Briscoe & Bailey. Rather surprising win for the Heels but I suppose that ups the animosity between The Elite and Swerve. Also, good promo from Rush followed by a pretty good ambush on Knight. Okada VS Knight was a great match but I figured Okada would win. Bailey is clearly going to get an eliminator next, and that’ll be awesome, too.
And of course, a great main event of Joe VS Claudio. Great win for Joe, and naturally the Death Riders would rush out there. Great counter with Hobbs showing up, and it works that The Opps “take out” Claudio. With Pac out from an actual injury and then Hook and Shibata kayfabe sidelined from what Death Riders did to them, things are a bit more even now. But even then, Yuta & Marina can still interfere, Hobbs & Willow can still counter, only for Moxley to still somehow win against Joe because I don’t think Beach Break is where a title change this big is going to happen. It still feels like Double or Nothing gives us Anarchy in the Arena 2025, Death Riders making a deal with The Elite to take on The Opps, Swerve, and Kenny Omega, who was conspicuous by his absence tonight.
