PLAY BY PLAY
AEW opens with Cody in the ring.
“I have never thought of my world as small before.” But recent world events put things in perspective. It has also clarified for Cody how important the service they provide is. Cody sees the irony in what he asks. Cody is about to ask some of the best athletes in the world to discard their petty differences and stand together. This is March 18, 2020, we as human beings need to stand together. For many, that means at a distance. No crowd is assembled at Daily’s Place as Cody says “We have to be informed. We have to be held responsible by health and science. But there is a profound difference in that versus living in a prison of fear.” Cody refuses to live in fear, because that is not living. Hopefully everyone watching this around the world feels the same way.
Cody now addresses Matt Jackson because he knows Matt is watching. Second to Tony Khan, Matt is probably the one most responsible for AEW existing. With brother Nick, Matt is a tag team specialist and a master of the craft. But that doesn’t mean anything is owed to Matt. If anything, that means Matt must work even harder. Matt’s anger towards Hangman Page is misplaced. Cody doesn’t need that and Matt doesn’t want that. Matt is the older brother, and he needs to carry Nick’s heart into this match so that they can win Blood & Guts. And speaking of Hangman, Cody says he is tired of singing Hangman’s well-deserved praises, such as his junior heavyweight agility and full heavyweight strength.
Cody admits he picked Hangman for first AEW World Champion, and yet was wrong. Chris Jericho was first, and Jericho even beat Cody. But Cody wants Hangman to get over himself. Hangman doesn’t want to be “that one guy in the Elite” anymore? Then don’t! Be the difference maker in The Elite! Be the reason The Elite wins Blood & Guts! But then lastly, the most unique friendship in wrestling, Kenny Omega. Cleaner and American Nightmare haven’t always gotten along, but that’s fine. They could argue who is 1A and 1B until they’re blue in the face and they both end up second place to someone else. They don’t want to be bridesmaids to another but that’s fine! This isn’t a wedding! This is blood, guts and violence! It will take years off of careers, and the Elite needs them both.
But Cody needs the real Omega. Cody needs the man who stood in front of 499 others and declared HE is the best! We need the Best Bout Machine! “In short, I need The Elite to be elite.” Matt Jackson and Kenny Omega walk out to the ring now and join Cody between the ropes. Omega takes the mic to say that normally it’s about speaking to an arena full of people, but now it’s just friends talking to friends. Omega also admits he and Cody haven’t always seen eye to eye. There were times they were at each other’s throats. Yet here we are. The world is falling apart, everything they built could fall apart at a moment’s notice. Will Dynamite even be allowed to run next week?
But if it’s up to Omega, Omega wants to go out the way they came in: as The Elite. Matt takes the mic and says he loves the call to action. And he agrees with Omega, too. But look at the ring. It’s just the three of them. We saw what The Inner Circle did to Nick, he isn’t even cleared to fly! Nick and therefore The Young Bucks as a duo are out indefinitely. And again, it’s just the three of them. Where is Hangman? A good question, even for Omega, his tag team partner.
But the other half of the AEW World Tag Team Champions finally appears. Matt admits things have been “strange” between them all. No one is saying this can be fixed in one night or even in a few weeks. But Matt asks as one man to another, and the team is asking him: Will Hangman stand with The Elite? Hangman sips his beer, then gives a raise of the glass and a nod. They’ll take that as a yes as Hangman heads to the back.
Omega takes the mic back, admits he’s used to speaking to crowds but knows he’s speaking directly to the people watching at home. “It’s hard to feel your energy, but we know you’re out there.” AEW wants the very best for everyone, because all they can give is their best. The world goes on, everyone needs positivity right now, so all AEW can do is give the best they can give right here and now. “So goddammit, hit the lights, hit the pyro, and let’s start DYNAMITE!”

MJF made it to AEW Dynamite.
Tony Schiavone asks what he’s here for. Wow, what a hard hitting question! But MJF says it is because he doesn’t have to. MJF saw the winner’s purse for tonight’s special episode, but it’s not enough for him. MJF is resting his undefeated body to let the “under card talent” get their TV time. He’ll be an audience of one while making real money. Right, Spears? Wait, Shawn Spears is here? And are they gambling on the matches? What did you say, Tony? You better watch your mouth! Does Tony realize the weight of the accusation he just made?! HOW DARE YOU!! But also, does he want in or what? Tony cues Brandi Rhodes as ring announcer before possibly asking about the odds.
The Lucha Brothers VS Best Friends w/ Orange Cassidy!
The Death Triangle is incomplete without The Bastard, but it can’t be helped given global circumstances. Will Pentagon Jr. and Rey Fenix still hold their own against Trent and Chuckie T 2v2?
To keep things fair and square, Cassidy goes to commentary to sit with Excalibur, Tazz and good ol’ JR. Y’know, whatever. The teams sort out and MJF shouts in support of Fenix and Pentagon. He’s got “mucho dinero” riding on this one. Fenix eggs Trent on and that is the two we start with. Trent and Fenix circle and tie up. They go around as MJF chants obnoxiously loud, and Trent puts Fenix in the corner. The ref counts and Trent backs off. Fenix and Trent circle and tie up again. They go around and Fenix puts Trent in the corner. The ref has Fenix give a break, but then Fenix tries a mule kick. Trent blocks and CHOPS! Fenix CHOPS back!

Fenix CHOPS then speeds things up. Trent dodges to hit a point-blank Meteora! Trent drags Fenix up to snapmare then KICK him in the back! Tag to Chuck Taylor and Best Friends double whip. They double shoulder Fenix down then double gun at Pentagon. Chuckie T drags Fenix up and MJF mocks Chuckie’s physique. It seems MJF, Shawn Spears and company are joined by Jake the Snake and his client, Lance “Murderhawk” Archer.
Back in the ring, Chuckie hits a big back suplex then covers, TWO! Chuckie clubs Fenix down and tags in Trent. Cassidy is either very relaxed or napping on commentary now. Best Friends double suplex Fenix up and hold him up, and then bring him down hard! Cover, TWO! Trent keeps his cool as Colt Cabana, Sonny Kiss and others are cheering on the other side.

All four men are down in front of Cabana, SCU and Joey Janela while AEW goes picture in picture.
Pentagon gets up but Chuckie attacks him at the railing. Chuckie punches and CHOPS Pentagon then throws him into railing around the way. The ref reprimands him but Chuckie just waves to the cameras. Best Friends mug Pentagon but Fenix comes over to attack. Chuckie hits back and then throws Fenix into a post. Chuck throws Fenix into the apron while Trent clobbers Pentagon. Chuckie bites Fenix’s mask as strange payback for Pentagon biting Trent. But speaking of, Pentagon reverses a whip to send Trent HARD into railing, moving it into the front row! It’s actually very fortunate there are no fans here tonight.
Chuckie T finally puts Fenix in but he realizes what happened to Trent. Cabana wants to check on Trent but Pentagon scares him off. Pentagon throws Trent into a post while Fenix fights Chuckie T back. Fenix throws Chuckie T out, keeps the count fresh, then ROUNDHOUSES Chuckie down! Fenix taunts SCU as he clubs Chuckie down.

Winners: The Lucha Brothers, by pinfall
MJF wins, too! Big money from Spears, that is. But with this huge win, will Lucha Brothers get back in the AEW World Tag title scene?
Tony Schiavone interviews Best Friends on stage.
Chuck and Trent join The Sloth, and says Death Triangle is making a big impact in AEW already. Chuckie says they’re “a bunch of chumps.” They wanna kick Trent in the dick while the ref’s back is turned? Maybe next time there doesn’t need to be a ref, or even a ring! How about a Street Fight?! Like, in the actual street! Or no, a parking lot! A Parking Lot Brawl for next week’s Blood & Guts Dynamite!! Will the Death Triangle have the balls to accept that challenge?
Fatal 4 Way: Hikaru Shida VS Riho VS Kris Statlander VS Penelope Ford!
The Superbad Girl joins the contender conversation with the Stardom Samurai, the Wrestling Idol and the Galaxy’s Greatest Alien because she got a Superbad upset victory over Riho on AEW Dark! Will she shock the world again when she beats three of the best all at once? Or will another woman earn a second shot at the Native Beast?
AEW goes picture in picture while the entrances are made. It’s hard to tell who MJF and Spears are putting their money on this way, but they’ll be audible again soon enough. AEW returns to single picture with the bell, and Penelope goes right at Riho! It seems nothing is settled between these two, and both Shida and Kris give them room. Penelope rakes Riho’s eyes! And then throws her out of the ring! So now she’s alone with Shida and Kris, and they both kick Penelope low! Shida and Kris double suplex but Penelope fights out to fight back! Penelope throws forearms but Shida blocks and Kris ROCKS Penelope with a right! Kris and Shida both run but Kip trips them both! The ref sees the Superbad Boy drag them both out, but MJF defends Kip’s innocence.
Kris ROCKS Kip then Shida DECKS him! MJF is mad at the ref for that one, but Penelope gets on the apron. Penelope LEAPS but both Kris and Shida get clear. They double kick Penelope again, then bring her over. But Riho’s up top and LEAPS onto them all! All four women are down and it sounds like Spears’s money is on Riho. Riho gets up and puts Penelope in the ring. Kip saves his Superbad Girl but Riho is attacked by Kris and Shida. Shida and Kris double whip but Riho handsprings through the double clothesline! Riho dropkicks Shida down then dodges Kris to tilt-o-whirl. But Kris blocks that for a BACKBREAKER! MJF says Kris still sucks.
Kris dead lifts Riho and puts her in the middle rope. Shida comes over and Kris wants to be her weapon. Shida suplexes Kris into Riho! But then Shida rolls up Kris, TWO! Shida drags Riho up top but Kris goes after Shida! Kris has Shdia up but Shida fights out of the bomb. Shida waistlocks, Kris bucks her off, and Kris elbows Shida away. Kris runs but Shida dodges to eye poke! And inside cradle, TWO! Kris LARIATS Shdia down! Shida bails out but Penelope FLIES back in, with a Superbad and super sloppy huricanrana. Kris still tumbles away but Riho leaps to give Kris a huricanrana! And then Shida missile dropkicks Kris out!
Shida goes after Riho but Riho blocks the suplex. Penelope joins in but Shida fights her off. Shida has both women for a double! But Penelope and Riho fight it off to double suplex Shida instead! Riho and Penelope glare at each other, and start pushing. The forearms start flying and Riho gets an edge! Riho runs and dropkicks Kip! SCU laughs at Kip but Penelope attacks Riho. Penelope puts Riho in the corner then handsprings in, for a big back elbow! Penelope fireman’s carries Rho but Riho fights it off! Riho sunset flips but Kip helps Penelope stay up!

Everyone loses their minds over that, but Shida reels Penelope in. Penelope fights free, handsprings but into a dropkick! Shida drags Penelope up, FALCON ARROW! Cover, TWO!! Shida runs to SHINING WIZARD! Cover, Shdia wins!!
Winner: Hikaru Shida, by pinfall
The #1 contender is STILL the #1 contender! Will the Samurai of Stardom have that rematch with Nyla Rose in the near future?
Tony Schiavone interviews Colt Cabana at ringside.
Like a lot of the other AEW talent here tonight, Cabana is watching all the action. Cabana is already 2-0 and is “scouting” the competition. Cabana has great seats, too. That was a great women’s match and the AEW Women’s Division is awesome. Penelope Ford may have lost but she was great. She’d be much better if she didn’t have her scheming boyfriend nearby. Kip hears this and takes offense. Kip asks Cabana if he wants to go. They start shoving, and Cabana SLAPS Kip! Kip is aghast as he storms off with Penelope. Will Boom Boom be 3-0 after taking on the Superbad Boy?
AEW shares Tony Schiavone’s interview with Jon Moxley.
Earlier today, as the AEW World Champion was heading for his Ford GT, Tony asks about Moxley not being medically cleared given what the Inner Circle did to him. Moxley says being on the “Do Not Enter List” is stupid. He goes where he wants to go, when he wants to. What does “medically cleared” even mean to a guy who has never been cleared? But Moxley is going to keep himself out of trouble and go for a ride to blow off some steam. But Moxley also promises that wherever the Inner Circle goes, Moxley will be there waiting. He will be in their blind spot. When Blood & Guts happens, Moxley won’t miss the party. “Not for the world.”
Jurassic Express VS The Butcher & The Blade!
Similar to Death Triangle being without PAC, Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus are without Marko Stunt but MJF’s mercenaries are without Allie Bunny. But that just means it’ll be a fair 2v2. Will JB and Saurus be able to make big moves against the sadistic Braxton Sutter and Andy Williams? Especially with MJF giving them big money motivations tonight…
The teams sort out and Jungle Boy Jack Perry starts against The Blade. Blade and JB tie up and Blade pulls hair. He puts JB in the corner but lets up to stomp!

JB adds the imploding senton but Blade bails out. Blade, Butcher and bank roller regroup while JB builds speed, but he sees they’re all gathered together. So JB slingshots out! The mercs catch the plancha to SWING JB into railing! Someone’s beer spills and MJF rubs it in. Saurus hurries over to reinforce JB but the ref tells everyone to get this back in the ring.
Blade drags JB up and brings him away for both him and Butcher to snake eyes on the apron! Blade puts JB back in and wrenches. Butcher tags in and they double headbutt JB down.

Blade drags JB up to whip and lariat him down! Cover, TWO! Blade brings JB up to tag Butcher in, for a leg drop sidewalk slam! AEW goes picture in picture as Butcher covers, TWO!
Butcher keeps on JB with a whip into the open corner and hard! He drags JB up but JB fights back with body shots. Butcher knees JB down then whips him into the corner.

Winners: Jurassic Express, by pinfall
Another big win for a boy and his dinosaur! Will Jurassic Express hop on the fast track to the AEW World Tag Team Championships?
The Dark Order is here!
Christopher Daniels and Evil Uno are yet to have their 1v1 match but we’ve been waiting for weeks on the promise of The Exalted One! Uno and Stu Grayson walk out to the ring, a mic in Uno’s hand. “Now I hope that the AEW production team is as smart as I believe they are, and they focus on my eyes so that I may talk directly to my people.” To all the members of The Dark Order around the world, The Exalted One is nigh! And when he arrives, he shall breathe new life into the Dark Order. Brothers Stu, Alex Reynolds and John Silver have all done Uno’s bidding to prepare for this “wonderful night.” All eyes shall open and see what Uno already sees. Uno has promised the arrival of the Exalted One, and he never lies, because Uno cares about us.
Together, the Dark Order shall be one! “We Are One!” The Exalted One is near! He’s near! He, is- Daniels interrupts! He and Frankie Kazarian go to ringside to tell Uno to “Please, in the name of all that is holy,” stop running your mouths! They’re going on three months straight! Uno goes on and on with these lies! Daniels is sick of it! Daniels says Uno promised to make everyone’s lives better. Uno didn’t make Reynolds’s life better! Uno didn’t make John Silver’s life better! The Dark Order hasn’t made the lives “of any of these jackasses who were your masks” any better! All the Dark Order does is waste time, “and we’re sick of it!” Because the biggest lie of all is the Exalted One’s existence! It’s just Uno and Grayson!
But wait! What is this music? “I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I am The Exalted One of the Dark Order. In a very short time, you will be up to speed as to who I am.” But first, the new rule of the Dark Order goes like this: “We do what we want, when we want.” If the Exalted One wants something, he takes it. To put it a way the stupid ones can understand, “If we come and knock on your door, you open that door and you let the Dark Order in.” Because if you don’t, the Exalted One will kick the door down to lead his people through it. If you still don’t get that, the Exalted One will show his face. It’s Luke Harp- er, uh, Brodie Lee!!
To make it more personal, “Mr. Christopher Daniels,” you thought you were safe. But the word is out! Everyone is NOT safe! All of Daniels’ jokes, all his games, did he think he’d get away with it? Lee tells Daniels that he is not the first “out of touch old man” who didn’t believe in him. But Lee makes sure Daniels is the last. So Lee formally introduces himself to us. He is Brodie Lee, The Exalted One. And then he’s IN THE RING!? And BOOTS Daniels down! Uno and Grayson attack Kaz while Lee looms over Daniels. He brings Daniels up in a familiar hold, but it’s not Sister Abigail or Blade Runner, it’s to feed the DISCUS LARIAT! The Dark Order stands tall and is even stronger! “WE ARE ONE!” But will AEW soon belong in entirety to the Dark Order?
Tony Schiavone interviews Jake the Snake and Lance Archer ringside.
The Murderhawk is now part of AEW, but what is his purpose here? The Snake says Archer isn’t here to talk. Cody Rhodes was given his due when Jake Roberts threw the gauntlet down. But what have they gotten in return? NOTHING! Does Cody realize he should pay attention to a Hall of Famer when he’s talking? They’re not playing games, Cody. Jake told him what they want. It is one thing to avoid them and stay out of harm’s way. But to ignore them is like spitting in their faces! They will not stand for that. Jake heard The Elite “bitching” like a bunch of girls worried about who’s taking them to the prom. “LOOK AT US!” Shut Jake up if you can, but you won’t.
So Cody, it’s time to stand up and be a man. Jake and Archer are here for a reason. It wasn’t going to be something that turns personal. But it will, and it has. Cody had his chance to meet them straight on. Now, they will get his attention. Will Cody be able to focus on The Inner Circle knowing #EverybodyDies?
AEW takes a closer look at Lance Archer.
A “public workout” in a ring int he middle of the woods has a few dozen rednecks (for lack of a better term) all riled up. A ring card girl in Daisy Dukes and flip-flops signals the start of the next round. The ring leader welcomes them all to the “Murderhawk Mansion” as Archer and Jake head to the ring. Who among the men ringside is man enough to challenge Archer? Who is ready to #TryOrDie? Archer storms his way into the ring and welcomes his first challenger. The man who barely comes up to Archer’s armpits throws a forearm, to get DECKED! Archer CHOPS the man down then Choke Slams him OUT of the ring and onto more challengers!
Another man steps up, only to get a BOOT! And a CHOP! And the BLACK OUT BOMB! Archer shouts “Everybody dies!” as he uses the EBD Claw to smother the man into the mat! The ring card girl signals round 4, as a meaty man with a mullet throws forearms on Archer. Archer just eggs him on, before he POUNCES the man out of the ring! The biggest man yet steps up, but Archer relishes the moment. They throw forearms but then Archer throws knees! He stomps a mudhole into the man then LARIATS him down! Challenger after challenger falls until there is not one standing. No one but Archer, that is.
The Snake applauds and the two head out. But someone late to the party tells the “a**hole” he’s up next. So Archer choke slams the man ONTO A CAR HOOD! And then uses the EBD Claw to dribble the man on it over and over and over again! If this is what Archer can do in one afternoon, what will he do to Cody and The Elite week after week?
AEW makes big match announcements for next week’s episode!
Blood & Guts won’t be the only brutal match next week! Luchasaurus and Wardlow will compete in AEW’s first-ever Lumberjack match! Will MJF and the mercenaries be able to help Mr. Mayhem against the dino-man?
Then, challenge accepted! The Parking Lot Brawl will go down as Pentagon and Rey Fenix will give Chuckie T and Trent their rematch! Who wins this other first-ever for AEW?
And more specifics for next week’s main event, it will be a 5-on-4 match with Nick Jackson out of commission! However, the graphic suggests there is the possibility of a substitution. Is that true? And who would even step up to join The Elite?
Blood & Guts Advantage Six Man Tag: The Inner Circle VS The Elite!
And speaking of being down a man, that means this match is even more critical for The Elite! Will Cody Rhodes, Matt Jackson and Hangman Page be able to coexist and conquer? Or will facing the united unit of Big Hurt Jake Hager and the Proud ‘n’ Powerful Santana & Ortiz be too much to handle?
AEW is picture in picture with a Sammy Guevara card promo. “Prepare to be entertained! Coming up next… The Inner Circle will DEFEAT the Elite! We’ll gain the upper hand… at Blood and Guts! With the numbers advantage, NO ONE can beat… The Inner Circle! We’re the best!” Ortiz clearly shouts this several times. Oh hey, the next card is “Shout out to Santana and Ortiz.” Sammy continues to say, “Always holding your weight, shout out Big Jake.” There’s even a Polo shirt doodle. “Putting Mox on the shelf! Shout out Le Champion. On that commentary, now… sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.” AEW returns to single picture as Chris Jericho makes his entrance! Sing along at home! Sammy’s sour but that’s music to Jericho’s ears.
The Elite make their entrance and Arn Anderson is here to support the team. Jericho says the clipboard looks like a Waffle House menu. Dustin Rhodes and QT Marshall join the audience and the Gunn Club is even here to cheer. Jericho insults the neck tattoo while also insulting Excalibur’s art skills before Matt Jackson makes his solo Young Bucks intro. Jericho plays dumb as to what happened between Nick Jackson and the garage door. Last but not least, Hangman Page makes his entrance with Kenny Omega by his side. Jericho gloats that he’s beaten all members of The Elite once so his 4-0 record goes to their advantage already. The trios sort out and this advantage match begins with Cody and Santana.

Winners: The Inner Circle, by pinfall (gain Blood & Guts entry advantage)
And it’s over just like that! The Inner Circle already have a numbers advantage with Nick Jackson down, and now they’ll be able to use it time and again in Blood & Guts! “Look at this! Look at this!” Jericho calls everyone dumb idiots and asks if they saw what just happened. Shut the music off so he can talk! It’s not like there are fans here anyway. Jericho gloats that the Inner Circle would get the advantage, and now they are guaranteed to win Blood & Guts!
In fact, there are four reasons why they’re guaranteed to win. First, this win here giving them the advantage. Second, they’re The Inner Circle, duh! Third, Jericho bans all fans from all future AEW events until he says so. The world could change for the better tomorrow, still no fans allowed next week. He doesn’t need “pumpkin-headed dipsh*ts” chanting for Cody, Matt or whoever. And fourth and most important, after what happened to Matt’s “snot-nosed little brother,” Nick, this is 5v4 for an obvious advantage. They count it down on their fingers, making sure to end on the middle one. “You don’t stand a chance, maaan~!” So when Blood & Guts finally happens- Hager does push-ups with Sammy on his back!
But as Jericho was saying, the Inner Circle has never had any problems with each other. No tensions, no finisher friendly fire, no getting buzzed ringside, none of that! So there’s no way the Inner Circle does anything but win. They’ve dominated AEW! They’ve dominated The Elite! So come Blood & Guts, they’ll dominate that, too. And get paid a lot of money. Jericho talks smack to Brandi and Dustin now. Sammy, show off that bod. Hit up the Spanish God. Cody’s a loser anyway, so-
Wait, what’s that buzzing? Is that a drone? Is that THE drone?! Matt gets a mic to admit that The Elite hasn’t always been on good terms with each other. But one mistake Jericho made is assuming The Elite was outnumbered. It isn’t 5v4 at all. Matt made a call to a friend who owed him a favor. Piano music plays, and BROKEN MATT HARDY IS IN AEW!! The Inner Circle is speechless. Will Hardy help The Elite DELETE!?
My Thoughts:
What an amazing episode! Now, not to harp on comparisons with the WWE and their way of handling empty arena episodes, but this is how Raw should’ve handled it on Monday. Though, I am surprised AEW went ahead with as many matches and with as many people present as they did. And not to make it as if the audience doesn’t matter for a wrestling show, because there are times a live audience can add (or subtract) from wrestling. But when a show is booked the right way, live audiences don’t really matter for a television viewing experience. And this episode was booked right.
Cody opening to make a sort of plea to The Elite in hopes of rallying them together was good, and even Jake the Snake’s snipe about it was good, too. Archer’s vignette being him running a gauntlet of over a dozen men was great, as it gives us an idea of his AEW persona as opposed to the NJPW Archer. But obviously, “Everybody dies!” sticks with him no matter what. Archer may be Jake’s client but I wouldn’t mind seeing the ring leader join the faction as someone to make entrance introductions for them. MJF and the other wrestlers ringside really added to stuff, which was the perfect way to take advantage of no fans. Why WWE didn’t think to do more of that these last few days is a bit odd but now it’s too late, they’d be seen as copying AEW from here on.
The matches didn’t even need fans cheering it on, either, aside from their fellow wrestlers watching. The Women’s Fatal 4 was really good, and Penelope is doing great with this apparent push. Shida still wins as she’s been on course for a match with Nyla Rose for some time now, but everyone looked great in this match. Cabana and Kip getting at it was great and their match will be fun to see. Maybe Cabana ends up with a female ally to give us more Mixed Tag matches. There were some miscues here and there in the tag matches we got, but other than that, great stuff there, too. Next week’s Parking Lot Brawl is going to be great, and while Jurassic Park gets wins as duos, I’m still hoping this builds to the AEW Trios Championships.
The Dark Order’s Exalted One turning out to be Luke Harper/Brodie Lee was highly expected by a lot of us, but I’m okay with it. Him wanting The Dark Order to be more forceful is an interesting direction, but I did like his line about another old man not believing in him. Lee definitely has the physical strength to be an imposing leader, and Lee VS Daniels would make for a pretty good match that could easily be built all the way to Double or Nothing. And may have to, given the way of the world. I almost thought that with Moxley’s promo about a blind spot and the graphic suggesting a new fifth man meant he’d join The Elite for Blood & Guts, but seems not. Broken Matt freakin’ Hardy, ladies and gentlemen! What a great way to accent how it seemed all hope was lost for The Elite.
The Six Man Tag main event was great on all levels, from in the ring to the character work with everyone involved. I thought the moment of Matt Jackson and Hangman Page finally working together again was going to come in Blood & Guts, but they did at least save some sort of Buck Shot meets Indietaker combination move for that match. I am very intrigued to see Hardy bring back his Broken fighting style, and perhaps even change it up a bit more now that he’s in a new company. Blood & Guts being submission or surrender only, I’d think Hardy has a submission move picked out to use on someone, regardless if it gets the finish.
My Score: 9.3/10

PLAY BY PLAY
The Conglomeration speaks.
Roderick Strong shouts, “ORANGE!” Cassidy says, “What?” Roddy says thanks for the new shirt with himself on it, it’s great. Kyle O’Reilly says he loves this teamwork, this camaraderie, and hey, they’re in Portland for Playoff Palooza! Conglomeration, Collision, this is a good night to defend the trios titles for the first time ever! But then FTR steps in, and #BigStoke says Cash & Dax have something that’s actually important to say to Cope & Cage. Second, everyone backstage knows The Conglomeration is about to lose to the Don Callis Family, FTR’s close personal friends. See you later, losers.
FTR make their entrance, and the Veterans Memorial Coliseum isn’t exactly happy about it. Stokely leads the way into the ring and they get the mics. Cash starts off by saying, “Big Cope, we saw the challenge you laid out, very interesting. Very interesting indeed. So I know you probably think you’re gonna pull one over on us, that you’re gonna trick us into accepting this, but all you really had to do was bring something, anything to the table to entice us. And I gotta say, you saying that if you lose again to FTR, that you will no longer team? That sounds pretty enticing to me. So I’m not gonna drag this out. Challenge accepted!”
The fans cheer that, and Dax says of course Cope would say he deserves the rematch. But why? Because of some success they had 25 YEARS ago? Dax will lay a little cold, hard truth on Cope & Christian. Nobody wants them here! The fans boo that, but Dax says FTR doesn’t want them here! The locker room doesn’t want them here! As dumb as these fans are, they’re smart enough to know that they don’t want C&C here! No one associated with AEW wants C&C here! And now, give Dax a moment. Cope didn’t have to play his little mind games like challenging their man hoods. All they had to do was put their careers on the line.
The fans boo more, but Dax says the New York Street Fight sounds great to them, but let’s do it one better! If they’re gonna have this match with all this riding on the line… Dax wants there to be no more questions! No more debate! New York Street Fight, I QUIT STYLE! Dax wants C&C’s wives, daughters, dogs, and God Almighty to hear the one thing that is embarrassing to every man: Five letters, two words, “I QUIT!” And then after that, C&C, you can go on about your way, this here is done. Continue on with your nostalgia run while FTR goes on as the greatest tag team to EVER do this! Now the ball is in your court, Cope. #TopGuysOut.
The fans boo, but FTR saw the tag careers and raised them their dignity! Will Cope & Cage call that bet as we all go Double or Nothing? But as FTR takes their exit, The Conglomeration makes their entrance! FTR gets in their face, so The Conglomeration SHOVES them down! Will Cassidy, Roddy & Kyle show FTR what a real team looks like? Or will the Don Callis Family add more gold to the treasury?

AEW shares footage from after Dynamite.
The Death Riders are still carrying a semi-conscious Ospreay, as we saw them do after the medical/referee stoppage against Mark Davis. They place Ospreay in a chair, and Moxley takes a seat across from him. Yuta splashes water on Ospreay to wake him up, and Marina puts a towel around him. She wraps it around, gives it some strong tugs, and then a neck massage? Moxley says she’s good, huh? Then he asks Ospreay, “What is it you’re trying to accomplish?” Breaking Moxley’s neck? Breaking his own neck? When Ospreay goes to the ring, when he gets up in the morning, where is Ospreay trying to go? Who is Ospreay trying to be? What is it Ospreay is chasing?
Moxley doesn’t think Ospreay even knows the answers to those questions anymore. It was almost seven years ago that Moxley saw Ospreay for the first time. The power Ospreay wields and the ability Ospreay has… Mind, flesh, blood, muscle, bone. It will all break eventually. You try to run through a brick wall as much as you want, the wall doesn’t go anywhere. But if you step back and realize there is a door, you can walk right through it and become whoever you want on the other side. This, the mind, can be trained, honed properly, so that it will not break. You take dominion over your mind, and you can become a weapon like pro-wrestling has never seen.
But this thing between them has to come to a head one way or another. So they can settle up. Moxley puts a steel chair between them. Ospreay can be just like everyone else. Or, he can become everything he was meant to be. Moxley kisses the ground as he lies down, and he says it is Ospreay’s choice. Ospreay picks up the chair, looks it over, and looks as the Death Riders step back. Ospreay has the cameraman leave, but why? Does Ospreay go through with the easy route of taking Moxley out? Or does he accept The Maniac’s offer and see how far down the rabbit hole he can go?
10 Man Tag: The Young Bucks & The Rascalz VS Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, Daniel Garcia, David Finlay & Clark Connors!
Well, Moxley and Marina are here, so Ospreay didn’t crush Moxley with the chair. The Maniac joins commentary as his solders, as well as their associates in The Dogs, are about to wage war with two teams that stand in their way of glory. But will the Death Riders & Dogs run roughshod through Matt, Nick, Dez, Zach & Myron? Or are we about to have the most lit Superkick Party ever?
The teams sort out and Dez starts against Yuta. The fans rally as the two circle, talk some trash, but then The Dogs attack! The fans boo but they and the Death Riders all beat up on Bucks & Rascalz! Garcia goes after Nick while Finlay TOSSES Matt. Claudio traps Dez, Yuta sends Finlay in for an UPPERCUT! Yuta ELBOWS, Garcia LARIATS, Connors RAMS, and Claudio UPPERCUTS! The Cycle of Violence is five strong, but Nick goes up to CROSSOBDY! But Yuta & Claudio catch him, and then pop him up for the BACKBREAKER! Now the Cycle o Violence starts up on Nick! UPPERCUT, UPPERCUT, RAM, ELBOW, and LARIAT misses!
Matt drags Claudio out, Zach has Finlay, and Myron has Connors. The Rascalz RAM The Dogs into the barriers, but Claudio SHOVES Matt! But then Matt dodges to send Claudio into barriers! Now the Cycle of Violence is turned around on Garcia as Dez UPPERCUTS, Zach DROPKICKS, and Zach pops Myron up so he can go out and in, CODE BREAKER! Zach goes up to DOUBLE STOMP! Moxley admits, he likes The Rascalz, they’re creative. Myron & Zach fire off kicks on Claudio, then The Bucks DOUBLE SUPERKICK! Then Dez gets a boost for a DOUBLE STOMP! The fans rally up as The Bucks then WERCK Claudio with a dropkick!
Matt skins the cat, Nick FLIES, and down go The Death Riders! The fans cheer The Bucks & Rascalz as they keep after the Dogs & Death Riders. Zach puts Claudio in, springboards, but Claudio blocks the Code Breaker! Claudio steps through, SHARPSHOOTER! Myron sunset flips but Garcia turns that around for a DRAGON TAMER! The Dogs intercept The Bucks, TOSS them out, but The Bucks RAM and slingshot to sunset flip! Now The Bucks have The Dogs in SHARPSHOOTERS! The fans cheer these dueling submissions! Dez and Yuta meet up, Yuta mule kicks and reels Dez in! Yuta suplexes, but Dez cradle counters! But Claudio tips it over, TWO!!
The fans cheer as Dez dodges, tilt-o-whirls and DDTS Yuta down! Cover, Claudio lets go to break it! The Bucks let their holds go to attack back! POP-UP RANA! Then a clinch and GUT BUSTER to NECKBREAKER BACKBREAKER! The fans fire up as The Bucks then double whip Claudio, but he breaks the double lariat to DOUBLE LARIAT back! The fans cheer the Swiss Cyborg, but Dez RAMS low! Dez fires body shots, ROLLING LIGER KICKS, and Claudio tumbles out! Dez goes up, up, and yet Yuta trips him up! The Decoder knew the formula, and he BLASTS Nick down! The Dogs mug The Bucks while Yuta suplexes Dez!
Yuta shows off his own feat of strength as he walks with Dez, then SLAMS him down! Tag to Finlay, tag to Connors, and they get Dez up for a HOTSHOT and JEEP FLIPPER! Dez flounders and the fans are torn while Collision goes picture in picture.
Connors soaks up heat while he paces around Dez. Connors then bumps Dez off buckles, tags Finlay, and Finlay stomps away. The ref counts, Finlay stops at 4, but Finlay also argues with the ref so that the Death Riders can get their shots in! Finlay then drags Dez up just to throat chop him! Tag to Yuta, he brings Dez around, but Dez fires body shots and haymakers! Yuta UPPERCUTS and whips Dez to then ELBOW him down! Yuta drags Dez over, tags Garcia, and they twist ankles! They rotate to twist wrist and ankle, then both wrists! The ref reprimands but Yuta leaves while Garcia stands on Dez.
Garcia pulls Dez’s arms while standing on hair! The ref reprimands and counts, Garcia stops, but Collision goes to break.
Playoff Palooza returns as Dez and Claudio crawl, hot tags to Zach and Garcia! The fans fire up as Zach rallies on Garcia with elbows, and a CHOP!

CODE BREAKER! Then the SLINGSHOT NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO!

Backstage interview with Hikaru Shida, Kris Statlander, Mina Shirakawa & Harley Cameron.
Lexy Nair is with these four and thanks them for accepting the No Physicality Agreement. Mina & Harley have something to say to Shida & Statlander, so the floor is theirs. Harley knows Kris wouldn’t train her, or even consider it, but Shida… What you said about Harley… Mina demands Shida apologize! Shida says okay, okay. Harley, Shida will say it in English and to Harley’s face that Harley is NOT on their level! She has never been on their level! And if Harley still doesn’t believe that, then Shida and her good friend, Statlander, will prove it by doing what Harley could not! And that is beat Divine Dominion for the Women’s Tag Team Championships!

Kris Statlander w/ Hikaru Shida VS B3CCA!
Well, dysfunction aside, the combination of the Galaxy’s Greatest and the Shining Samurai has been on a roll. But is the former AEW Women’s World & TBS Champion really interested in the Triple Crown? Or will she make her intentions known with her actions rather than her words?

Becca put up quite a fight, but this is why Kris is a former champion. Shida celebrates but Kris doesn’t want anything to do with it? Will Kris have to make it plain to Shida that they’re not a team?
Backstage interview with The Divine Dominion.
Speaking of the Women’s Tag Team Champions, Lexy is now with Megan Bayne & Lena Kross and brings up the challenge thrown out by Shidalander. What is their response? Lena asks, “Why? Why should we be worried about Shida & Statlander? What about us doesn’t look like we have been ready and waiting?” Megan asks, “And why would we be worried about another thrown-together tag team who thinks they stand a chance?” What these two have is more than these titles. They have an understanding that there are no two women in this godforsaken realm that look like they do, that move like they do, and that destroy like they do.
This isn’t a challenge, this is their challenger’s fate. Do they accept it? The Divine Dominion has spoken, will The Megasus & Aussie Amazon continue to crush all who oppose them?
Rush VS Adam Priest!
El Toro Blanco has been itching for a fight, and #AllGenresAdam may have made the mistake of giving him one. But can Priest survive a run in with this ungovernable bull? Or will Rush stampede through him and right to a title opportunity?

RUSH!” Rush finally goes to the corner, “If you mess with the bull…” BULL’S HORNS! Cover, Rush wins!

Priest put up a fight, but not enough to stop El Toro Blanco! Rush then demands a mic and a mic is brought. Rush has them stop his music, and he tells Priest to listen. “Remember: When you mess with the bull… You get the HORNS!” A simple enough message, but will Rush make sure to bring more gold to LFI in the near future?
Konosuke Takeshita speaks.
“Okada… Out of respect for Don Callis and the Don Callis Family, I tried to avoid this. But if you really wanna face me at Double or Nothing, I will happily take your title. B*TCH!”
Kazuchika Okada responds.
“Takeshita. I don’t fear you. I don’t like you. I don’t respect you. But…” Okada then shifts into Japanese to call Takeshita out for being a selfish bastard who has it all wrong! At Double or Nothing, Konosuke will LOSE! The Rainmaker and The Alpha are finally having out this sibling rivalry within the Don Callis Family, but who proves they’re truly the golden boy?

BREAKING NEWS for Dynamite!
Rush got a tough fought victory tonight against Adam Priest, and he looks to keep momentum going on Wednesday! Who else will get the horns? Then, with the challenge issued and accepted, we will get The Divine Dominion VS #Shidalander for the AEW Women’s World Championships! Will Megan & Lena continue to dominate? Or will Shida prove she can be trusted when she and Stat take the titles?
Willow Nightingale speaks.
“So they’ve been calling me the Comeback Killer. And hey, listen, you know me, I hate to rain on anyone’s parade, because I know how hard it is to come back from injury. But if you wanna come back at my expense, I’ll show you exactly why I gladly accepted such a nickname. Shida found out, Aminata found out, and Kamille found out. So, whether you’re curled up at home, or you’re rehabbing in the gym, or you’re sitting in that locker room, sitting in catering, sitting across from me, or sitting next to me, I am the TBS Champion, The Face of TBS. I am Willow Nightingale, and I am at your service.”
The Opps walk ‘n’ talk backstage.
Samoa Joe is happy to see “Speak ‘n’ Spell” Shibata again, and he asks what Hook’s been up to. Hook says he’s been holding it down, recruiting for them, that kinda stuff. Aight, cool. Speaking of which, Anthony Bowens steps in and says they’re just the people he was looking for. Bowens welcomes Joe back, and reminds Hook that he said he’d have an answer by “next week.” Turns out, that’s tonight. Bowens is getting tired of waiting, he needs an answer. Is he in The Opps or not? Hook says Bowens needs to take a step back. There is one problem: No more vacancies! Joe asks Bowens, “Do you hear him? Was he clear enough for you? There’s no more vacancies in The Opps.
“Because it sounds like we found our newest one.” Bowens smiles as he and Joe shake hands on it. Hook seems a bit surprised, but he says Bowens passed the test. Welcome to the crew. Bowens smiles, will The 5 Tool Player be just the thing The Opps need to rise back up in AEW?
Six Man Tag: Chris Jericho & The Hurt Syndicate w/ MVP VS The Demand!
The Ayatollah of Rock ‘n’ Rolla returned “home” to AEW, only for Ricochet, Toa Liona & Bishop Kaun to rain on his parade. And after ruining his return to PPV, bald, Ricochet had the audacity to say losing to him was Jericho’s new gimmick. But Ricochet made quite the miscalculation saying no one wanted to team with Jericho to face them. The Demo God called upon the All Mighty & The Standard of Excellence not because they like each other, but because they all despise The Demand! So now, will Jericho & The Hurt Syndicate put the hurt on Bald, Dumb & Ugly? Or will The Demand find a way to add Lashley & Shelton to their list?

Kaun runs up, Shelton slips around again, GERMAN SUPLEX! Ricochet leaps in, but Shelton gets him for a GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans fire up as Rip City is now Suplex City!

Lashley CLOBBERS Liona and THROWS him into railing! Shelton does the same to Kaun! But Ricochet LOW BLOWS Jericho!! The fans boo but Ricochet pushes Jericho down, and hits the “RICOSAULT!” Cover, Demand wins!!
Winners: The Demand, by pinfall
MVP is as upset as anyone, The Demand used misdirection to steal another victory! But is Ricochet right? Is Jericho just the guy who gets beat up by The Demand every week he shows up? Or can Jericho turn things around before it gets any worse?
My Thoughts:
A very good episode for Collision, and I almost thought Playoff Palooza was gonna be delayed because of, well, playoffs. But anyway, great opening promo, much better than their usual “cold opens.” It certainly teased something for FTR VS Conglomeration, but there’s still FTR VS C&C to settle. And it fits the nature of “Double or Nothing” to raise the stakes on the title match. The Street Fight nature was already No Disqualification, and an I Quit match was already No Disqualification, so putting them together is both logical and not. But I suppose having New York themed items handy to beat each other with until someone verbally gives up is still a great combination. I would think C&C wins, though, so that they don’t have to break up.
As for Conglomeration VS Don Callis Family on the Don Callis Family’s fourth trios title match, great stuff, though maybe a little clunky at parts. Great win for Conglomeration, but who knows who they get for Double or Nothing. Great promo from Moxley and Ospreay, and Ospreay not crushing Moxley was clearly the right move for building some intrigue. Ospreay might not join Moxley & The Death Riders, but being trained by them would make for some good story. Feels like AEW is taking inspiration from DC Comics given their partnership, this is very much Slade Wilson training Dick Grayson to go from Robin into Nightwing.
Great little promo of Harley & Mina confronting Shida with Kris in the room. Shida is doing great playing this passive aggressive Face, especially with how enthusiastic she is for Kris. Great showing for B3CCA against Kris, but Kris was of course still winning. We’re definitely getting a tag match of #Shidalander VS Mina & Harley, and that can be when Shida turns on Kris. Rush VS Adam Priest was way better than it needed to be, but that’s good for Priest. Though, now it makes me wonder what Rush is even doing. What is LFI as a whole even doing? That group has felt either neglected or just cursed ever since they started in AEW, Tony Khan needs someone to help book this stuff.
Great tag match from Windsor & Persephone VS Thekla & Skye, but duh, of course Julia Hart would affect that ending. I’m still thinking we see a Triple Threat of the three women’s championships, but maybe we see Skye or Julia go after Perse’s title just so Perse can successfully defend the CMLL Women’s title on an AEW PPV. I’d rather have the Triple Threat to really make things interesting. Great National title match and another great showing for CLØN, but I figured Jack Perry would win. Between his reign just starting and Clon kinda being on standby until Hologram returns, this was an obvious outcome.
Good promos from Takeshita and Okada to call each other out, but they’re already pretty high in heat. The only thing that could add more is a brawl. Very good promo from The Opps for them to accept Bowens, but like, shouldn’t this have been aired during Dynamite? Joe was still in his gear! And very good main event Six Man Tag, though there was that moment when Lashley stumbled that was worrying, almost thought he hurt his leg. In the end, Demand of course wins by bending the rules like always. To me, this story is already the flipside of the usual “Jericho Vortex.” When Jericho was a Heel, he was always getting the better of his Face rival, and the Face would ultimately win in the end. With Jericho as a Face, he really is going to be losing again and again until we reach the blowoff/
My Score: 8.8/10

PLAY BY PLAY
MJF is here!
Portland cheers but Maxwell Jacob Friedman is in no mood! He immediately shouts for them to cut his music as he storms his way into the ring. The fans boo but MJF says, “You wanna boo me? No, no, no, see I’m not like your paper champion, Darby Allin. When I come out here, you show me the respect I’ve earned!” The fans continue to boo but MJF says last week will be forever be known as the Seattle Screw Job! Three days prior to his match with Darby Allin for MJF’s AEW World Championship, MJF wrestled in an all-out war with Kenny Omega and came out victorious. MJF did not come out without being banged up, bruised, and battered.
Three days later, he is informed he is wrestling Darby that day, and then gets hit in the nuts! That SKANK, Aubrey Edwards, does a fast count! MJF’s shoulders were up! So no, Darby ain’t the world champion, Darby is a dirty little cheater! The fans boo the hypocrisy but he asks if they actually believe Darby can beat MJF at 100%. “YES!” Do this disrespectful little s*its actually believe Darby can beat MJF when he’s prepared? “YES!” Then they must have short term memory loss, so here’s a history lesson: MJF is the most complete pro-wrestler in the history of this sport! MJF is the man who has beaten every top name pro-wrestling has to offer!
MJF is the man who made sure Hangman Adam Page can never be AEW World Champion ever again! And MJF is the man who kicked out of the One Winged Angel like it was nothing! The fans boo but MJF says he is the BEST professional wrestler in the world! Darby Allin, MJF doesn’t give a damn about the main event with the Psycho Killer! If Darby has an ounce of dignity in that fragile body, he will give MJF that title back, RIGHT NOW! The fans boo, and instead of Darby, MJF gets Kevin Knight! The fans cheer The Jet as he walks down the ramp and into the ring. Knight gets a mic to tell MJF, “Different city, same old Max coming out here and whining like a little b*tch.”
The fans chant that at MJF, and Knight says Portland is tired of MJF talking. The Jet just landed, the air’s gonna switch up as it’s about to get real. It’s getting real, because The Jet is 2 Fly. Before MJF gets to hating, he has to be honest: Doesn’t The Jet look clean with the TNT title around his waist? The fans cheer that! Knight says when you’re a real champion, a fighting champion, you’re willing to put the title on the line at any time. Now, MJF, don’t you remember when Knight had you pinned for what seemed like an eternity? If anyone got cheated and screwed, it’s Knight, cuz he should be Jet2Belts right now!
The fans cheer again, but MJF raises an eyebrow. MJF says okay, so, first of all, what an elegant speaker Knight is. Almost Aristotle! Let’s go over the points: Knight is The Jet, The Jet is 2 Fly, The Jet is TNT Champion, The Jet had almost beat MJF, The Jet thinks it is socially acceptable to be friends with Speedball Mike Bailey, and The Jet should be AEW World Champion. Did we get all that right? Okay, cool. Well, obviously, Knight’s memory isn’t that great, but MJF’s memory is, because he’s always the smartest person in the room… MJF beat Knight with a Heatseeker for an easy W. So no, Knight, you should not be world champion.
If anyone should be world champion, it is MJF and MJF alone! But MJF gives Knight credit, nice hardware. Give it up for the TNT Champion! The fans cheer, and MJF says what a cute little title that is, huh? It fits Knight like a glove, because he is a TNT Champion type: a workhorse, good hand, average Joe. Y’know, someone with a ceiling. Someone who will never be AEW World Champion. Someone who should know better than to step into MJF’s ring and breathe MJF’s air. Someone who damn sure should know better than to allow MJF’s AEW World Championship to come out of their average little mouth.
The two stare down but Knight says keep running your mouth, and Jet will slap that big nose off your face and send you packing! MJF is doing a lot of fibbing, talking about Jet not being AEW World Championship material. Anyone can look at Jet and see he is a gold mine! The fans cheer that! Knight says MJF wants to talk about the lineage of this workhorse title, well, some of the best wrestlers have held this title. So no coincidence that someone like MJF has not held it before. The fans like that zinger! Someone like MJF has always had everything handed to him, so let’s keep the train going. Let’s keep it going as The Jet hands MJF an ass whooping! The fans cheer that!
MJF says okay, okay, no, no, shut up! Let’s get this straight, Kevin: You wanna wrestle MJF? What does MJF get out of that? He’s already proven he’s better than Knight. Though, Knight did talk about the TNT title, and MJF’s kinda sold on the belt. Matter of fact, what really makes MJF want it is he can tell how proud Knight is of that title. In fact, MJF would love to turn that pride into depression. So here’s the thing, Jet. You wanna wrestle MJF? Put that TNT title on the line and you’ve got yourself a match! The fans like the sound of that! Knight says hell yeah! Let’s do it! Cuz The Jet is always ready, and being in Rip City tonight, Knight will rip MJF a new one here and now!
The fans fire up and MJF shouts for a ref! Portland is getting hot as Knight and MJF are ready to open the show with a fight! But will MJF make himself the Scumbag Face of TNT? Or will The Jet be #2Fly2StopNow?
AEW TNT Championship: Kevin Knight VS MJF!
But then MJF bails out with a smile on his face. “You’re gonna dance with The Devil next week, kid!” The fans boo, seems there won’t be a match after all. Will Knight make MJF regret postponing his ass kicking?
Backstage interview with The Demand.
Renee Paquette is with Ricochet, Toa Liona & Bishop Kaun and welcomes them for being here, along with… Chris Jericho! Ricochet rolls his eyes as Y2J surprises them with his presence. It was announced for this week’s Collision, a Six Man Tag match of The Demand VS Jericho and partners of his choosing, but has he found said partners? Ricochet laughs, because what are we talking about? Of course Jericho does not know who his partners are gonna be? Liona points out Jericho’s burned every bridge, and Ricochet adds that no one is gonna team with Jericho now that his new gimmick is getting his ass beat The Demand every week he shows up.
Jericho says Ricochet is about to receive a Cease & Desist. What? Why? Jericho’s new moniker, way too long, he got it copywritten. W-What? Ricochet is the one who says it. Yes, it is a great idea, bald, but Jericho can easily set Ricochet and everyone up with a brand new shirt, available on AEW Shop! Yes, it says “Jericho: The Guy Who Gets His Ass Beat by The Demand Every Week That He Shows Up.” Ricochet is upset already. Mock him all you want, Jericho, but on Collision, Ricochet & GOA will steal Jericho’s dignity. There is no one in the locker room that wants to team with Jericho! And even if there were, the result would still be the same: Demand UP!
So this ends the same way as it did at Dynasty: Ricochet pinning Jericho via the “Ricosault.” Jericho says what Ricochet is forgetting is that Jericho doesn’t need to find guys who like him. He just has to find guys who hates Ricochet, bald prick. Jericho storms off, Ricochet asks about that last part, but Liona says it’s okay, let Jericho try to find anyone, it won’t matter. But will the Ayatollah of Rock ‘n’ Rolla have plenty of choices when it comes to those who want to beat down The Demand?
Brody King VS Lio Rush!
Well, now tonight’s action kicks off as The King of Death crosses paths with The Problem Child. Lio’s new persona even gave Pac the creeps, but will it have the same effect on Brody? Or will this be Lio’s Final Hour?
The bell rings and Lio is talking to himself, just like before, but then Brody YANKS Lio from the corner! The fans rally for Brody but Lio looks up at Brody, his expression going back and forth between a confused grown and a wild grin. Lio circles Brody while the fans bark, but even Brody seems unsure what to think of Lio as Lio offers the handshake. Brody accepts, but he isn’t letting go! The fans cheer as Lio struggles, but then Lio BITES Brody’s hand! Brody lets go, Lio runs, redirects, dodges, and repeat! Lio CROSSBODIES, but into Brody’s arms! Brody SLAMS Lio and Lio scrambles to the corner! The fans bark while Brody stares Lio down.
Brody runs up, Lio dodges, but Brody denies the stunner. Brody shoves Lio to another corner, then runs in for a SPLASH! And LARIAT! Brody snapmares but Lio bails out. Brody pursues, Lio CHOPS, but Brody just frowns. Brody CHOPS and Lio is stinging already! Brody CHOPS Lio and Lio flops against railing! Brody brings as chair around, makes Lio take a seat, and then barks as he gets space. The fans join in, and Brody runs up, but Lio dodges! The splash hits railing! Lio goes up onto the desk, creeps Nigel out a bit, then CROSSBODIES, but Brody catches him again! Brody pops Lio around but Lio slips free to POST Brody!
Lio RAMS Brody into the railing and the fans fire up! Brody slumps down while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
The ref checks Brody, and though he clutches an arm, he is okay to continue. So Lio clamps on and CLAWS Brody’s eyes! The ref reprimands but Lio stops at 4. Brody goes to railing while Lio goes to the ring, and Lio is already doing his own ring count. The ref says hold on, and starts the official count. Lio paces as he waits on Brody, then DROPKICKS Brody off the apron! Lio builds speed, DIVES, but Brody catches him again! APRON CHOKE SLAM! Lio slumps down now while Brody shakes out the bad arm. Brody drags Lio up, CHOPS him, then stalks him around the way. Brody CHOPS Lio, keeps him from escaping into the crowd, then CHOPS again!
Lio staggers around the way but Brody pursues. Brody brings Lio up to whip, but Lio stops short of hitting railing. Brody runs up, but Lio dodges, sending him into the railing! Lio then whips Brody, but Brody reverses, and Lio hits railing after all! Brody storms up on Lio, drags him up, and puts him in the ring. Brody shakes out the bad arm while Lio goes to a corner. Brody runs corner to corner but Lio dodges again! Brody hits buckles, Lio BITES a leg! The ref reprimands but Lio stops, so he can SPIN KICK! Brody is down but so is Lio! Lio still has a wild smile on his face as he sits back up. Dynamite returns to single picture as Lio fires forearms!
Brody grabs Lio by both hands, whips him, but Lio rebounds into RUSH- NO! No Rush Hour stunner, Brody back suplexes! The fans fire up as Brody keeps moving, and he LARIATS Lio inside-out! Both men are down again as Brody still works on the bad arm. The fans rally as Brody storms after Lio, but Lio bails out to the apron. Brody drags Lio up, but Lio HOTSHOTS the bad arm! Lio brings Brody in, HOTSHOT STUNNER! Brody sputters and flops to the apron while Lio says something is getting stronger. Lio fireman’s carries?! Brody CLUBS Lio, then reels him in! Canadian Rack, but Lio CLAWS the eyes again!
Lio is free, and he HANDSPRING KICKS Brody down! The fans rally while Lio runs around like a gremlin! Then he DIVES! Down goes Brody and the fans fire up again! Lio climbs a corner, goes to the very top, and he SUPER DUPER CROSSBODIES! Down goes Brody after all, and he again clutches the arm. Lio grins another wild grin while the fans cheer. Lio leaves Brody behind to go back to the ring. Brody rises, but Lio climbs! The fans fire up again as Lio sees Brody slide into the ring! FROG SPLASH onto Brody’s back! Cover, ONE!! Brody toughs it out, but Lio starts to foam at the mouth! Lio warns the ref, then goes to a corner.
Lio climbs while Brody stands, and Brody runs up! Lio leaps over, rolls through, then dodges a lariat. Lio waistlocks but Brody wrenches free and whips Lio, for the BOSS MAN SLAM! The fans fire up for Brody as Lio goes to a corner. Brody barks, the fans are with him, CANNONBALL! Direct hit and Brody gets Lio up, for the GONZO BOMB!! Cover, Brody wins!
Winner: Brody King, by pinfall
Lio’s strange new nature certainly took some getting used to, but Brody still powered through to victory. Seven singles wins in a row and Brody grabs a mic. “Tonight, in the main event, I’ll be keeping a close eye on that world title match.” The fans cheer that! Brody tells Ciampa that if he comes out on top, congratulations. But Darby Allin… Brody is so proud of Darby. The fans cheer, but Brody says, “Not proud enough to not bring the violence.” Brody has put both men on notice! Will the King of Death battle a Psycho Killer or a Relentless One when the time comes?
Backstage interview with Tommaso Ciampa.
Speaking of the Psycho Killer, Renee Paquette is there to ask him about tonight’s main event match for THE AEW World Championship. Darby Allin’s first defense, Ciampa’s first challenge, how is it going to go? Ciampa says he’s been told his entire career what he is not. Not big enough, not 6’4″, not 250 pounds, not able to pass the “airport test,” not charismatic enough, not main event material. But he will tell you what he is: A husband, a father, a son, a brother, with an insane work ethic. Tonight isn’t about villains and heroes, but about passion, about proving that glass ceilings are imaginary.
Tonight is about professional wrestling, for the grandest sport in this business, THE AEW World Championship. So if you’re asking Ciampa if he’s ready… Ciampa stands up to say, “You have never seen a man more prepared for his moment than I am tonight. Now go ask Darby Allin: Do you want this more than I need it?” Ciampa heads out, will nothing stop him from getting what he needs?
Adam Copeland speaks.
The Rated R Superstar is backstage as he tells FTR, “You said that Christian and I will never get another tag team title shot. Now, I might be biased, but I think we deserve another one. So I came up with a plan. Cuz if nothing else, I’m a fair man. I came up with an idea that I don’t even think you can refuse. Because you guys talk about being the best tag team of all time, FTR: The Greatest Team Team of All Time, right? Hmm. Debatable. But you’re one of the best ever, that’s nondebatable, otherwise you don’t do this (points to small scar) to my face. So here’s the idea: At Double or Nothing, Christian and I challenge you for the AEW Tag Team Championships in a New York Street Fight!
“Now, I know your little brains are struggling with, ‘What exactly is in it for for us?’ Well, here we go. You wanna prove you’re the best ever? If you beat us at Double or Nothing, we retire as a team. Hmm. Whaddya think? I know what my answer would be. And if you’re actually the best tag team of all time, I know what your answer would be! Unless deep down inside, deep down, you know we’re better. Only one way to prove it. Now, like I said, I know what I’d do, but I’m a man. Ball’s in your court, boys.” Cope heads out, what will Dax & Cash say to him raising the stakes?
Mina Shirakawa VS Hikaru Shida w/ Kris Statlander!
The Fighting Gravure Idol suspects of The Shining Samurai of being very two-faced, and not just in this passive aggressive way she works with Kris Statlander as a team. Mina suspects Shida even had something to do with what happened to Toni Storm! But will Mina expose Shida’s true self? Or will Shida simple strike down #MinaNow?
The bell rings and the fans rally. Shida offers a handshake but Mina does not trust it. Shida shrugs and circles with Mina. They tie up, Mina headlocks, but Shida fires body shots.

Mina goes outside, inside, and FLYING CHUCK! Shida staggers, Mina runs, and Mina SLINGBLADES! The fans fire up for Mina as she rains down forearms!

Shida sits on Mina for a cover, TWO! Shida keeps on Mina by bringing her up and around. Mina fires shots but Shida just KNEES low! Mina drops down, but Shida brings her back around to put her in a corner. Shida fires up and rains down fists! Shida goes right to TEN, then fires up again!
Shida snapmares Mina, KICKS her in the back, then pushes her to a cover, TWO! Mina toughs it out but Shida stays focused. Shida CLUBS away on Mina, Mina fires body shots, but Shida whips Mina to ropes. Shida scoops for a BACKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Mina toughs it out but Shida stays right on her with a CAMEL CLUTCH! Mina endures being bent back, and she fights her way over to the ropes! Shida grabs the hand reaching out to make this a STRAITJACKET STRETCH! Mina still fights, and kicks her way to the ROPEBREAK! Shida lets go quickly, then brings Mina up as Dynamite returns to single picture.
Mina fires forearms on Shida, but Shida HEADBUTTS in return! The fans rally as Shida whips, but Mina tilt-o-whirls to RANA! The fans fire up as Mina then SHOTGUNS Shida! Shida stumbles to a corner, the fans rally with Mina, and she runs corner to corner for an ELBOW! Mina whips, Shida reverses, but Mina grabs ropes. Mina BOOTS Shida, then steps outside. Mina blocks a kick to DRAPING DRAGON SCREW! Shida is stuck in the ropes but Mina sweeps the leg! Mina then aims to slingshot and TORNILLO! Cover, TWO! Shida survives and Kris applauds with the fans. Mina drags Shida around to SMASH the knee off the mat again and again!
Mina drags Shida up, brings her around, and has the leg again! SHIN BREAKER! Shida hobbles and falls while the fans rally up again. Mina has the legs, steps through, but Shida CLUBS away on Mina’s own legs! Mina hits back, lets the hold go, and Shida bails out. Shida clutches the knee but Mina pursues. Shida hobbles to her feet, only for Mina to DROPKICK the legs out! Mina then SMA- NO, Shida RANAS Mina into the steps! Even Kris is a bit worried about that one. Shida fireman’s carries Mina, then hurries up the steps to go to the apron. From there, Shida tucks Mina in, APRON BASTARD DRIVER! Shida grits her teeth as she kicks Mina into the ring.
Shida slaps her leg into working, then goes up the corner. The fans rally as Shida aims, METEORA on Mina! Cover, TWO!! Mina survives and the fans fire up! Shida just keeps on target, TAMASHII!!

Shida hurries, FALCON ARROW! Cover, Shida wins!

Will Ospreay VS Mark Davis!
The Aerial Assassin wanted one more shot at Jon Moxley, but he’s having to take a detour into his past and the grudges that remain. The Don Callis Family still despises Ospreay, and Dunkzilla has been given the greenlight to destroy his former friend! But can #DangerousDavis put Ospreay back on the shelf?

Ospreay hits barriers then crawls around, but Davis goes out to CLOBBER him again! The fans boo but Davis just soaks up that heat with a snarl. Davis looms over Ospreay as Callis joins commentary.

Ospreay backs Davis down, but Davis ROCKS Ospreay with a haymaker! BACK- NO, Ospreay lands out of the suplex to HEEL KICK! Ospreay springboards, but Davis catches the Oscutter! SAIDO! Ospreay clutches the shoulder, but Davis just hits another SAIDO! Ospreay rolls to the apron but Davis is right on him! The fans rally as Davis SAIDOS again! The hattrick complete, Davis covers, TWO! Ospreay survives but Davis shakes his head. Davis waits on Ospreay to rise while the fans rally again.
Davis runs up, ENZIGIRI! Ospreay staggers to ropes, Davis calls his shot, and he hits the ropes! REBOUND- HIDDEN BLADE!!! Ospreay has to crawl to the cover, TWO?!?! Davis survives thanks to that delay, but the fans continue to cheer Ospreay. Ospreay runs up, but into a LARIAT! Ospreay gets folded but Davis roars again! The fans boo, but COUNT TO PAIN!!! Cover, ROPEBREAK!!! Ospreay might’ve gotten lucky there, but Davis still miscalculated something! Callis protests but the fans boo him for it. Davis is beside himself, but he still has Ospreay in a vulnerable position. Davis goes to the apron, holds Ospreay up, APRON PILEDRIVER!!!
The fans lose their minds but Callis is no longer protesting the count, he’s telling the ref to either call it or let Davis get Ospreay in the ring! Doc Sampson is called in to check Ospreay, this might be worse than Dynasty. Ospreay begs Doc to let him continue, but Callis says he heard some kind of cracking sound! Ospreay drags himself up with one good arm as Davis is chomping at the bit. Doc says they can’t, and they CALL IT! Callis loves it, because Davis wins!!
Winner: Mark Davis, by referee stoppage
The announcement is made, Doc Sampson and the ref do not feel Ospreay can continue, despite what his heart and mind are saying. Davis wins on that technicality, but then he drags Ospreay up in a SLEEPER!! The fans boo as Davis DUMPS Ospreay into the ring, the ref and Doc reprimand, but Callis says finish him! Wait, Marina Shafir shows up? And then so does Jon Moxley! What is this about? Davis stares Moxley down, but the rest of the Death Riders are here! Claudio, Yuta & Garcia circle the ring, and the fans are going nuts! They tell Davis & Callis they messed up, but Dunkzilla stands down. So, did The Death Riders just save Ospreay?
Wait, what’re they doing dragging Ospreay out of the ring? Are they really saving Ospreay or kidnapping him?
Backstage interview with Alex Windsor.
Dynamite returns as Renee Paquette is with the Iron Will NJPW Strong Women’s Champion, and says it has been a difficult week after losing to Thekla. Jamie Hayter is not medically cleared after her own loss to Thekla back at Dynasty, but surely the Brawling Birds are far from done with The Toxic Spider. Windsor says no we are bloody not! They’ve tried to squash this bug, but that didn’t work. So now, Windsor will rip off each of Thekla’s stubby little legs! Triangle of Madness, count yourselves lucky that Jamie is NOT here to help her stomp you all out into a puddle of piss! But then in steps the CMLL Women’s World Champion, Persephone!
The Goddess of the Underworld tells Windsor that she is sorry about Jamie. But she was here and thinking she could kick some annoying little asses. And who more annoying than the Triangle of Madness! Perse may not be a Brawling Bird, but if Windsor will have a Goddess in her corner, she’s more than happy to help. Well, that was easy. Windsor says the Triangle can pick any two, and they can meet Windsor & Perse on Collision! Now, how do you say, “We’re gonna beat the piss outta you!” in Spanish? Perse translates: Vamos a paliza muerte! What she said! Are the CMLL & NJPW Strong Women’s Champions about to crush Thekla and her Sisters of Sin?
Samoa Joe VS Cody Chhun!
After World’s End, not only did the Samoan Submission Machine lose the title, he lost time to injury. Hook’s been holding it down for The Opps, but will the real boss man remind everyone who’s in charge?
The bell rings and the fans are all fired up for Joe. The two tie up, Joe wrenches and wristlocks, but Cody rolls and slips under. Cody wrenches to wristlock, but Joe squats, spins, and fireman’s carries for the takeover. Joe has the armlock but Cody fights up. Joe wrenches, wristlocks, then HEADBUTTS the hand again and again! Cody endures, ROCKS Joe, but Joe just shrugs that off. Cody is a bit taken aback, but he swings again! Joe keeps up the guard, then he ELBOWS Cody down! The fans fire up for Joe as he waits on Cody. Cody stands, into a JAB! JAB! JAB! Joe fires off shots in the corner, then RIDGE HANDS Cody down!
The fans fire up for Joe again as he drags Cody back up. Joe puts Cody up top, tucks him in, but then Cody CLAWS the eyes! The ref reprimands, the fans boo, but Cody CROSSBODIES, only for the “Samoa Nope!” Joe lets Cody belly flop and the fans fire up! Joe storms over to Cody, THROWS him hard into the corner, then puts him up top! Tuck and lift, MUSCLE BUSTER!! Cover, Joe wins!
Winner: Samoa Joe, by pinfall
No ring rust found on Joe, he is truly back at 100%! And as Joe goes up the ramp, Hook is there to be the first to celebrate. They fist bump and hug it out, will The Opps get right back on top now that Joe’s back?
Backstage interview with Chris Jericho.
Renee checks in on Jericho and asks if he’s found partners for the Six Man Tag for Collision. In fact, he did. He was just talking to them. The HURT SYNDICATE walks out of Jericho’s locker room! Shelton Benjamin says hello to Renee, always a pleasure. Bobby Lashley nods, and Montel Vontavious Porter says this isn’t personal, it’s just business. Jericho smiles as MVP heads out, and adds one last “Bald.” Will Jericho, Lashley & Shelton make sure to not just hurt people, but hurt The Demand?
Tony Schiavone is in the ring.
“Ladies and gentlemen, please stand up and welcome the NEW AEW Champion of the World, Darby Allin!” The fans indeed stand and cheer as The Relentless One makes his way to the ring, holding up #PrettyPlatinum! Darby joins Schiavone in the ring, then takes the mic. Darby sets the belt down and kneels beside it while fans chant, “You Deserve It!” Darby takes a moment before he stands again. Darby paces as the emotions are running high. “This took everything. Y’know where I had my first match? Right here in Portland.” The fans cheer for that! Darby didn’t think of what he was gonna say tonight, because this can all end in a matter of minutes when Ciampa comes out here.
The fans boo that idea but Darby says that’s just the thing! It is just a 15 minute ride. Darby sees what this championship does to people. It can grow their egos and make them into something that they’re not. But this isn’t for him. This is for his parents that he helped retire. This is for his beautiful fiancé that he met back on the school bus. This is for the sherpas that helped him on Mount Everest. And this is for all the fans! Because when this 15 minute ride is over, he wants to look in the mirror and still know who he’s looking at. But MJF storms out here shouting, “No, no, no, no, no!” The fans boo as the Scumbag has to ruin things.
MJF says, “You Deserve It?! These people wanna chant ‘You Deserve It?!’ You don’t deserve s*it!!” The fans boo more but MJF tells “pipsqueak” Darby to give him back the belt, right now! Darby says no. The fans cheer, so MJF demands a rematch! Darby again says no. Darby tells MJF that he’s not giving MJF anything until MJF puts something on the line. Because unlike MJF, everyone else in the back deserves their shot, and that is what Darby promises to do every single week! Darby will put his body on the line until it gives out! And it all starts tonight with Ciampa, right now! So MJF, get your ass outta here!
And speaking of Ciampa, his music starts as he steps out on stage! MJF gets in Ciampa’s face as Ciampa walks down the ramp, but Ciampa just gives him a kiss on the cheek. His shadow knows his story, but will that story’s next chapter include THE AEW World Championship? The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if Darby survives his first!
AEW World Championship: Darby Allin VS Tommaso Ciampa!
The bell rings and the fans fire up as the fists start flying! Ciampa SHOVES Darby to a corner, CHOPS, ROCKS, and CHOPS again! Ciampa whips corner to corner, then runs up to BOOT Darby! Ciampa runs corner to corner, but Darby follows to SHOTGUN him down! Darby goes up, up, and- NO, Ciampa bails out! Ciampa says time out, but no such luck! Darby just follows him to the next corner, goes back up, and SUPER COFFIN SPLASHES! Wild and risky as always, but Darby roars as he stands back up! The fans are with Darby as he drags Ciampa up and into the ring. But then Ciampa has Darby in ropes!
Darby slips free, trips Ciampa up, but then Ciampa BOOTS Darby away, into the desk! Darby falls in a heap but Ciampa is right on him. Ciampa whips Darby hard into barriers! The fans rally while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Ciampa drags Darby up, hears the fans cheering Darby on, and decides to suplex and SLAM Darby on railing! Ciampa lines up a shot, and he KNEES Darby down! Ciampa revels in the cheers and jeers, then goes back to Darby. Ciampa drags Darby up and into the ring, pushes him around, then stomps the hand! Ciampa SLAMS that hand off the mat, then drags him back up. Darby fires body shots with the good hand, but Ciampa TOSSES Darby back out! Darby hurries to the apron but Ciampa BLASTS him down! Ciampa applauds himself and pats himself on the back, then goes out to stomp away on Darby.
Dynamite returns to single picture as Ciampa CHOKES Darby, but the ref counts. Ciampa stops at 4, but he shows the ring frame off to the fans! Then CATAPULT GUILLOTINE into the frame! Darby writhes and clutches his head! The fans are torn as Ciampa stalks Darby around the way. Ciampa THROWS Darby into railing, then refreshes the ring count. Darby slumps against railing while Ciampa runs in! But Darby dodges! Ciampa gets jammed up by the railing, and Darby goes up the corner! Darby takes the top off the corner post to then stand on said post, and SUPER DUPER CROSSBODY down through a table!!
The fans go nuts as Darby and Ciampa are down in the timekeeper’s area! Darby rises up already, but he flops right onto the commentary desk. Darby then slumps off the desk to hobble into the ring. The fans cheer “A E DUB!” for making this match happen. The ring count starts on Ciampa, but even Darby struggles to sit up. Ciampa hobbles his way over at 5 of 10, but he is busted open! Darby runs and DIVES! Direct hit into the desk! The fans go nuts as both men are down again! Darby snarls and rises, he rains fists down on Ciampa’s bloodied forehead, but Ciampa kicks from below. Darby hobbles, “This is Awesome!”
Darby puts Ciampa in, goes up, but Ciampa grabs the ref so he can then trip Darby up! The fans boo and the ref reprimands, but Ciampa sprinkles blood on the camera from shaking out the stars. Ciampa stomps away on Darby but the ref counts. Ciampa stops, Darby checks that bloody wound, but Ciampa keeps his eyes on Darby. Darby crawls over to a corner, Ciampa clamps on, and dragon sleeper, but Darby uses the corner to go up and over! Ciampa grabs at the corner, but Darby still hits SCORPION DEATH DROP! The buckle pad goes flying while both men fall down! The fans rally again as both men stir.
Darby sits up first, looks to the corner, and he climbs up again! Ciampa rolls away, the crimson mask growing. Darby pursues, but Ciampa wants mercy? Darby just has a sinister smile as he goes up that near corner. But Ciampa trips Darby up! Ciampa hobbles his way into the ring, then out the other side. The fans rally for Darby but Ciampa says he’s just as crazy! Ciampa sits Darby up to CHOP! Darby wobbles but Ciampa CHOPS him again! Then Ciampa climbs up, brings Darby up in a fireman’s carry, and tucks him in! SUPER PSYCHO DRILLER to the FLOOR!!! The fans are going nuts while Ciampa writhes from hitting his own tailbone!
The ref is freaking out, too, asking what Ciampa was thinking! The ref checks Darby while he’s down and out, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Ciampa still writhes, the ref has to check his bloody forehead and his back now. Ciampa grits his teeth and pounds the floor mats in pain, but somehow he is still able to sit up. Ciampa refuses to let this stop him, though, and he crawls over to Darby. Ciampa drags Darby up, the ragdoll he is right now, and puts him in the ring. Ciampa then drags Darby to a cover, ROPEBREAK!! Darby has life enough to survive by a literal foot! Ciampa is too sore to even be upset, and he slowly sits back up. Ciampa drags Darby around, CHOPS him, then sits him up for another CHOP! And another CHOP! Darby CHOPS back! And CHOPS again!
The CHOPS go back and forth, faster and harder, then Darby gets the edge! Darby runs, ducks ‘n’ dodges, but Ciampa CLOBBERS him with a flying forearm! A bit double-edged given his own head wound, and both men are down again. A standing count starts, rises past 5 of 10, and Dynamite returns to single picture. Ciampa and Darby slowly rise again as the fans rally up. Darby and Ciampa spot each other, and they stand up for m ore forearms! The fans fire up as the shots are simultaneous! Ciampa gets the edge, he ROCKS and CHOPS Darby on repeat, and in the corner! CHOP, CHOP, CHOP, and Ciampa roars!
Portland fires up as Ciampa pushes Darby, runs up, but Darby dodges! Ciampa stops short of the bare buckle, then he catches Darby’s shotgun! CATAPULT, but Darby goes up the ropes to then IMPLODER STOMP! The fans cheer as Darby turns things back around on Ciampa! Both men sit up again, and Darby fires a forearm! They stand, Darby fires more forearms, then he runs, runs, but Ciampa BACKDROPS! Darby does a full flip before landing on his face! Then Ciampa KNEES Darby down! Darby sits up like a Deadman, but Ciampa lifts him up! Darby slips free of the powerbomb to fire fast hands and RAM low!
Darby runs, hops on, CODE RED! Cover, TWO!! Ciampa survives again and the fans fire up! Forget crimson mask, Ciampa has basically painted his face with his own blood! The fans rally, “This is Awesome!” as Darby drags himself back to a corner. Darby climbs, climbs, and COFFIN DROPS but into a REAR NAKED CHOKE!! Ciampa squeezes tight, the body scissors on, but Darby pops through to cover! TWO, and both men hurry to their feet! Darby runs up, but Ciampa dodges, sending Darby into that bare buckle!! Ciampa then takes his kneepad down, PSYCHO KNEE!!! Cover, TWO?!?! Darby survives and Ciampa is shocked!
Ciampa snarls, pounds the mat, and he reels Darby in! Lift and PROJECT CIAMPA!! Ciampa isn’t done there, he reloads and runs up, PYCHO KNEE!!! Cover, TWO?!?!? Darby still lives! No one can believe it, least of all Ciampa! His best shots, and yet Darby survived! The fans hope these two “FIGHT FOREVER!” but this has to end somehow! Ciampa has Darby’s legs, he grins, and he steps through! The fans boo as Ciampa dares copy that hold, but Darby kicks from below! Darby kicks and kicks, then reels Ciampa into a cradle, that then turns into a SCORPION DEATHLOCK!! The fans fire up as Darby uses that on Ciampa!
Ciampa reaches out, fights forward, crawls over, but Darby drags him back!! Darby sits back deep on the hold, but Ciampa scratches and claws! Darby bridges back with the hold, it’s almost a Figure Four because of it! Darby gets back to his feet so he can put on more pressure, and CIAMPA TAPS! Darby wins!!
Winner: Darby Allin, by submission (still AEW World Champion)
Portland gives a standing ovation to the instant classic, this truly bloody war, that was Darby’s first title defense! Darby wins out, and looks exhausted already as he sits up slowly, title belt in hand. Darby then offers a handshake to Ciampa, and Ciampa accepts. The fans cheer as they both bow deeply to show respect. Ciampa helps put the belt on Darby’s shoulder and pats him on the other. Ciampa’s first try at the world title failed, but will he be back before you know it? Wait, here comes Brody King! He did say he’d face whoever won tonight, and he helps Darby stand up.
Brody has a mic to tell Darby, “I was serious when I said that I’m proud of you. We have spent countless nights talking about moments just like this. I just talked to Tony Khan, and with your permission, next week, Darby Allin, Brody King, for the AEW World Title!” The fans like the sound of that! Darby and Brody shake on it, so the match is set! But if this is how beat up Darby is after just his first defense, will he stand a chance in his second? Or will the King of Death make himself King of the World?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite as we start the Darby Allin Era, but MJF also had a logical response to all of it. MJF will of course deflect that he was caught off guard only because he ignored all messages from AEW, and then he demands to get a rematch over how he lost. Kevin Knight confronting MJF was good stuff, good promo from Knight in that, and them giving us Knight VS MJF for the TNT title next week is really good stuff, can’t wait to see how that goes. I wonder, with Darby telling MJF to put up something, does MJF cheat the TNT title off Knight to then put it up against the world title? Will Double or Nothing truly be about a double champion while the other has nothing?
Darby VS Ciampa was wild for a TV main event, especially with Ciampa getting busted open and almost busting his ass quite literally with that Air Raid Crash from the top. Great win for Darby as just his first defense, and Brody King makes a great second defense just on the history between them. Ospreay VS Davis was also a great match, and I’m rather surprised by the referee/medical stoppage. The Death Riders coming out to save and then abduct Ospreay was also surprising, I have no idea where this is going. Will The Death Riders try and toughen Ospreay up? Brainwash him? Or reason with him that together, they can take down Don Callis Family?
Good promo from Windsor and Persephone, but a shame to hear about Jamie Hayter being hurt again, because we could’ve gotten a great Six Woman Tag of Perse & Birds VS Triangle of Madness. The tag match will still be good, and I wouldn’t mind seeing a Triple Threat of Thekla VS Windsor VS Perse, perhaps even with each title on the line somehow. Maybe something where the one taking the loss loses the title, the odd woman out retaining her title? That’d be the kind of convoluted yet fun match stipulation AEW would make. Though with that, it might only be Thekla getting the NJPW title so she can torment NJPW/Stardom again through this loophole.
Really good stuff with Shida VS Mina, with just enough of the Heel Shida antics with the kendo stick to further tease her eventual turn. Kris being the Face partner, she of course stopped Mina from using the kendo stick, and then that costs Mina, all good stuff. Samoa Joe of course wins his return match, and I was hoping more of The Opps here, but maybe Collision is where Joe & Hook decide if Bowens is Opps material. Great promos with Jericho and The Demand, as well as with The Hurt Syndicate. Jericho & Hurt Syndicate likely win because Hurt Syndicate is still on their return push, and we can definitely split off into Jericho VS Ricochet 2 and Hurt Syndicate VS GOA.
Very good promo from Cope to raise the stakes on the title rematch. But c’mon, a team breakup/retirement match has to give away that C&C win. Then FTR VS C&C Round 3 can be for like All In London and that will be just an awesome match for what AEW is making into their WrestleMania.
My Score: 8.9/10
