PLAY BY PLAY
It’s the All Out Buy-In!
Join Tony Schiavone and Dasha in discussing, analyzing and predicting tonight’s action!
We hear from MJF.
“Here we are my friend.” All Out 2020, “two undefeated bulls locking horns. Two men who will go down as the greatest who have ever graced this sport.” Jon Moxley VS Maxwell Jacob Friedman. Everyone fell for MJF’s injury tricks because they’re all “smooth brained idiots.” MJF proved he can get violent like Moxley, but that’s what he won’t do tonight. He’ll instead just beat Moxley like a dog on a leash. Moxley is a goon, and MJF will make sure this does not spill out of the ring or turn into a brawl.
MJF says Moxley has one kill shot. Moxley thinks he can tap or snap MJF, but he can’t. MJF knows every single reversal in the book! MJF will out wrestle Mox. Kill or be killed, just as Mox said. But as MJF said, bad things happen to those who get in MJF’s way. “Tonight, we get a real paradigm shift. Because I’m better than you, and you know it.” But will MJF prove it later tonight?

Apparently, the Superbad Boy has a “huge announcement” that he wants to give tonight. Kip’s news is so huge! He and Ford are getting married! Well, wait, we knew that. But they announce this because they’re going all out for the wedding. The wedding will be live on Dynamite!
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves, because before the wedding is the bachelor party. And the bachelor party means a best man. Who is the best man? Good question, “Adam” Marvez, whose real first name is Alex. But a best man is truly that. He has to be trustworthy, know the groom very well and share similar interests. And handsome, too. Because wedding pictures last forever. Kip scoured his extensive list of contacts, and knows we all want to know. This Wednesday, Kip will let us know. This isn’t just Kip’s best man, this is THE best man ever! Who will be the Superbad Best Man to arrange the Superbad Bachelor Party? Please subscribe to Kip on Twitch, by the way.

This is perhaps the most unique tiebreaker match you’ll ever see anywhere! Le Champion knew it would take something truly spectacular to settle this score, so he invented this brand new match type! Perhaps two of the greatest stars, attractions and characters in wrestling are going to take this to a new level! Pin, submission, or fall into the 500 gallon tank of mimosa, who makes history while taking the series?
Before the match, Marvez interviews Jericho backstage. Jericho hushes Marvez to tell him no one wants to hear Marvez talk. Tonight is the first-ever-anywhere Mimosa Mayhem! After 14 weeks of Cassidy VS Jericho, “it wasn’t a storyline, it wasn’t a feud, it wasn’t a program. It was an experiment.” Jericho wanted to see if he could make Orange Cassidy “into a legit main event draw here in AEW.” And after these last 14 weeks of beating each other, dumping liquid on each other, attacking each other, and everything in between, Jericho honestly feels that Cassidy IS a legit draw! You’re welcome.
But tonight, Cassidy finds what Le Champion does: “I make main event stars, I make dreams come true, and I also end them.” This Freshly Squeezed Experiment ends when Jericho hits Cassidy in the face with a Judas Effect, makes him tap out to the Walls of Jericho, and then throws his “lazy ass” into 500 gallons of orange juice and champagne. Cassidy did a great job, just not good enough. He’s done, at the hands of the Demo God. Jericho makes his entrance, Floyd the Baseball Bat in hand, and history is once again written before our very eyes!
Jericho flips off Freshly Squeezed fans while taking off the jacket and gloves. The fans do chant, “Thank You, Jericho!” but in dueling chants with the Cassidy fans.

Jericho drags Cassidy up, CHOPS him to a corner and taunts Cassidy. Jericho CHOPS again, stalks Cassidy while flipping off fans, then whips Cassidy corner to corner hard! Cassidy bounces off buckles, fans boo but Jericho soaks up the heat.
Jericho drags Cassidy up, Cassidy throws body shots back but Jericho ROCKS him with a right. Jericho whips Cassidy again, trips him up, but Cassidy fights off the Walls! Jericho changes to catapult Cassidy up and over! Cassidy avoids the mimosa tank on that side but Jericho digs his boot in! Jericho only manages to dip Cassidy’s hair into the mimosa, but Jericho goes out to use both hands. Cassidy resists, throws body shots, but Jericho bounces him off the apron. Jericho goes to the champagne, moves it aside and uses the table to DECK Cassidy! Cassidy falls away from the tank, so Jericho has the serving tray. Jericho SMASHES the tray to pieces on Cassidy’s head! Fans are torn between cheers and jeers.
Jericho drags Cassidy up, aims at the tank, but Cassidy turns it around to throw Jericho off the tank stage! Cassidy then LEAPS and crossbodies Jericho down!

Cassidy and Jericho slowly rise, and Jericho has Floyd! Jericho aims at Cassidy, but Cassidy SUPERKICKS him first! Cassidy is careful of the mimosa tank as he grabs the bucket. Jericho gets up and Cassidy CLOBBERS him with the champagne bucket!

Cassidy runs in, Jericho tosses him out but Cassidy holds on! Jericho triangle dropkicks but Cassidy still stays up! Jericho runs in but Cassidy slingshot sunset flips! High stack, TWO! Jericho runs into a MICHINOKU! Cover, TWO!! Jericho survives but both men are down as fans rally up. Cassidy and Jericho stir, rise, and Jericho throws a haymaker. Cassidy gives it back as the two brawl on their knees. They brawl to their feet fast and furious, Jericho gets the edge and suplexes. STUN-DOG MILLIONAIRE! Cassidy fires up, runs, tilt-o-whirls, but Jericho slams him down! Jericho has the WALLS OF JERICHO!
Cassidy endures, pulls himself towards ropes, but the ropebreak won’t save him. Cassidy keeps crawling, and grabs a champagne glass. Cassidy scoops some mimosa, Jericho drags him back in, Cassidy manages to SPLASH Jericho in the face! Jericho staggers, Cassidy cradles, TWO!! Cassidy runs and hits the ORANGE PUNCH!!

Cassidy climbs up, bad back slowing him down again. Cassidy leaps, into a CODE BREAKER! Cover, TWO!?! Cassidy survives and Jericho can’t believe it!

Winner: Orange Cassidy, by mimosa dunk
What a win!! Cassidy breaks the tie, and now Jericho will have to eat crow and wash it down with some mimosa! Jericho said it himself, he made Cassidy into a main event player! Will Cassidy soon find himself in a main event involving a title?

AEW World Championship: Jon Moxley VS MJF w/ Wardlow!
Maxwell Jacob Friedman not only thinks he’s better than you, and you know it, but he also thinks he is better for you than the “Fighting Pride of Eastside Cincinnati” as the face of AEW. MJF wants to be on top of AEW for the next 25 years, and that is admirable, but Moxley won’t let it be at his expense. MJF also claims the Paradigm Shift is too dangerous, and he managed to get Moxley to sign a contract banning that move! Will he find that Moxley has plenty of other tools at his disposal? Or will he make good on all the “campaign promises” he has made?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and this fight for the future of AEW begins!

Moxley taunts Wardlow to do something and get MJF disqualified. Wardlow stays put and Moxley throws forearms on MJF.

Moxley goes out to join MJF, drags him up and suplexes, but Wardlow creeps closer. MJF grabs to arm to YANK it down into the apron! The ref checks on Moxley but Moxley refuses to lose this way. Moxley gets up, works to get the bad arm moving and the fans rally up behind him. MJF is annoyed, but he distracts the ref so Wardlow can put Moxley in. MJF stomps Moxley’s bad arm!
MJF paces as fans boo, but MJF hooks Moxley’s face. The ref counts, MJF stops at 3, but then takes the bad arm to drop knees on it! Cover, TWO!

Wardlow gets on the apron, throws the Dynamite Diamond Ring in but MJF fumbles it. The ref is distracted, PARADIGM SHIFT!!! Cover, Moxley wins!!
Winner: Jon Moxley, by pinfall (still AEW World Champion)
Turnabout is fair play! MJF wanted to screw Moxley over, but Moxley got him first! Moxley knows we now, but he just shrugs to the cameras. And now, the Maniac and the Murderhawk Monster are going to collide! We saw those two go to war in NJPW, will it be even wilder in AEW?
My Thoughts:
I don’t know if All Out went all out, but it definitely went hard! I could’ve sworn the Tooth ‘n’ Nail was advertised for the Buy-In, but I like that it got upgraded to main card and opened the show. The Buy-In matches we got instead were really good, and the Tooth ‘n’ Nail match was a lot of fun. Swole wins so I feel like she should be next up for a title shot after we got that incredible Champion VS Champion match for the AEW title. I already knew Rosa was incredible from her work just about everywhere, and Shida getting the win is big for her. The Bucks and Jurassic Express had a great match, but it seemed natural for the Bucks to win. But it was surprising that they were actually unsure of what Omega was doing after the also incredible tag title match. FTR win the belts so that their eventual match with Bucks can be for gold, but I feel like even the Bucks are surprised Omega is going down some other path. Is The Cleaner coming back meaner than ever?
The Casino Battle Royal was a lot of fun, it’s great to see Matt Sydal have a part to play, but wow that was scary when his Shooting Star misfired. Gotta check those ropes better, even if there was a lot of excitement going on. Archer winning makes a lot of sense, as he hasn’t lost since the TNT Championship match with Cody, and he’s already had experience against Moxley in NJPW over the IWGP United States Championship, which Moxley still actually has. Then things got scary again with the Broken Rules match. I don’t think they thought the table spot through all the way, they should’ve had a second table there as back-up. But thankfully Hardy was okay, at least enough to do what I imagine was a summarized version of that match. Obviously Hardy was going to win, though, he can’t leave AEW after practically just getting there.
The 8 Man Tag was a lot more fun than I expected, though I probably should’ve expected this. I am surprised the Dark Order lost, but I do like that it adds some dimension to the story with Cabana. Dustin getting the nod for the TNT Championship match this Wednesday is great and can also add dimension to the story with Cody, whenever it is Cody returns. On one hand, Dustin could lose and Brodie rubs that in, as having beaten both Rhodes brothers. On the other, Dustin finds a way to win, he and Cody have a rematch from a year ago for the title. Cassidy and Jericho had a great match, even considering this was the first-ever Mimosa Mayhem. Jericho put Cassidy over in his promo, sorta, and then put Cassidy over in the match, so that’s great for Cassidy. But I wonder if this is really over at just 2-1. Jericho seems like a sore loser and will insist on extending this, hopefully into Blood & Guts.
And then the main event! Moxley and MJF did a great job, and boy did MJF bleed! He was supposedly busted open from the catapult-into-post spot, but then it stopped bleeding, until Moxley unleashed those headbutts! I almost thought Moxley was going to forget about the Paradigm Shift ban in the heat of the moment, and him remembering added some great character details. I actually liked that Moxley cheated the cheater since MJF was going to use the diamond ring on him. MJF can easily bring this up but I feel like Archer will make things “easier” by intimidating MJF and/or destroying him with a Blackout bomb. Archer and Moxley bringing their NJPW feud to AEW is great, but I’m thinking they have it out long before Full Gear in November. Perhaps for a special edition Dynamite before the end of September?
My Score: 9.3/10

The Alpha stands tall over Davis as friendly fire takes out Ospreay’s team. But what happens when things divide into 1v1 matches? Will Konosuke still be International Champion after he and Ricochet go #OuttaThisWorld? Will Kyle prove that he IS The Protostar after tearing down Will Ospreay?
Jon Moxley & The Death Riders speak.
“Despite recent discoveries that Orange Cassidy is a snake, coldblooded, uncaring, unmoving, a serpent lurking in the darkest corners of the battlefield, my objective remains the same, my job on Saturday night remains the same. You may be this borderline sociopath, you may be a great guy just like everybody thinks. I don’t care if you’re a great guy. I don’t care what kind of person you are. When the bell rings on Saturday night, and the AEW World Championship hangs in the balance, you are a threat to my people. And I will destroy you.
“There’s so much more going on behind Orange Cassidy’s eyes than any of us could’ve imagined. You may make it to Full Gear with your mind in tact, but your body… For that matter, Darby Allin’s body… Still up for grabs.” Claudio jumps in, speaking in German about what he’ll do to Darby. Then in English, he says, “Tonight, I’m gonna end you.” Moxley pats Claudio on the shoulder. Will The Maniac’s top henchmen do his dirty work for him when they dismantle Cassidy & Darby? Or will it just be fuel on the fire for Freshly Squeezed & The Relentless One? Speaking of…
Darby Allin speaks.
“Claudio, I’m gonna keep this really short. Let’s not forget you’re the one who put the chair around Bryan’s neck and pulled the trigger on his career. Every single one of you Death Riders will have your day. And Claudio, today’s your day.” Will Moxley’s men be dealt with in brutal fashion before he suffers the same?
The Hurt Syndicate arrive.
Renee Paquette waits in the parking lot as an SUV pulls up, and she welcomes Montel Vontavious Porter, Shelton Benjamin & Bobby Lashley to the show. She heard MVP has a surprise in store, what’s he got planned? MVP says yes, there is a special treat for the AEW audience, and that is this announcement: The All Mighty Bobby Lashley will be in action here tonight on Dynamite in Reading, Pennsylvania, prior to his PPV debut on Saturday! Renee asks if MVP is at all concerned to put Lashley in a match- OH NO, Swerve attacks!! Swerve knocks Lashley over, then laughs as he gets away!
Shelton helps Lashley up but that ambush might’ve been with Swerve’s own silver chain. Will Lashley elect not to compete tonight after all? Or is he about to make an example out of whatever poor soul is put in front of him?
Adam Cole is here!
Reading fires up as the Panama City Playboy makes his way to the ring. They join in with the “BOOM!” and “ADAM COLE, BAYBAY!” Cole grabs a mic to ask, “Who’s ready for Storytime with Adam Cole, Baybay?” Reading sure is ready! Cole wishes so so badly that he could get his hands on MJF this Saturday, but he’s not. MJF did everything in his power to make sure he and Cole didn’t fight on Saturday, and he succeeded. But do you know who else succeeded last week? Roderick Strong did! The fans cheer as Cole says he and Roddy have the exact same goal: Give MJF the ass whooping of a lifetime! And that is exactly what happens at Full Gear!
The fans cheer, and wait, Kyle O’Reilly makes his way out here. The longtime friend of Cole & Roddy makes his way out here, and already has a mic. Kyle isn’t sure if Cole remembers, but 14 years ago, right here in Reading, PA, Cole and Kyle had their second match ever against each other. They’ve come a long way. Being associated with Cole has given Kyle some incredible highs, and some serious lows. And through those lows, Kyle knows Cole better than anyone. Which makes Kyle the only one willing to tell Cole the truth. The truth is, this crusade against MJF has got to end before someone gets hurt.
This obsession, Cole needs to wash his hands of it. His ankle has already been reconstructed, what’s next? Cole has friends willing to take a bullet for him, Kyle included, but Cole has got to stop having his friends fight his battles. Roddy barely makes it out alive last week, and now he wants to fight MJF! He wants to END MJF, all because of Cole. Kyle just doesn’t have a good feeling about any of this. Cole asks Kyle what he’s trying to say here. Kyle doesn’t think Roddy can handle MJF? Kyle asks Cole if he really thinks MJF isn’t already three steps ahead. MJF hasn’t been here for weeks but he’s pulling all the strings.
Cole should know that dealing with MJF is like playing with fire, and Kyle doesn’t wanna see his friends get burned. Cole needs to realize why so many of his friends are willing to go to war for him, and it’s because he is a great leader, an elite pro-wrestler, and a great friend, who doesn’t wanna see his friends get hurt. At least, so Kyle thinks. But Cole has to face facts: MJF is more of an evil bastard than Cole will ever be, and that is a good thing. Kyle drops his mic and walks away. Cole drops his mic, and has a lot to think about. Does Kyle have a point? Can Cole just let Roddy handle MJF and then move on?
Orange Cassidy speaks.
“A little later tonight, I’m gonna make an example out of you, Wheeler Yuta. And I’m gonna show everybody exactly what I’m gonna do this Saturday to you, Jon Moxley. And that’s walk down to that ring and beat you, alone.” But The Conglomeration steps in. Mark Briscoe has Rocky Romero & Tomohiro Ishii with him as he asks Cassidy, “What sense does that make, man?” Moxley said himself, there’s five Death Riders, one Cassidy. Conglomeration has his back, they are here for him. Cassidy says no, no one else needs to get hurt. Get hurt? What’s Cassidy talking about? The Conglomeration are ready to scrap!
PLEASE!! Cassidy is asking them… They don’t have to believe him or even understand him. But just promises him they’ll stay back here. If Cassidy insists, then so be it. Cassidy says there you have it, Jon. Five of you, one of him. Do what you’re gonna do. Because at Full Gear, Moxley’s gonna need all the help he can get. Cassidy is himself wanting the best for his friends, but will that work out for the betterment of AEW? Or is he just playing into Moxley’s hands?
Kris Statlander VS Hikaru Shida!
The #BornAgainKristen bodied the bullies that are Mercedes Mone & Kamille the last time she saw them, but she still needs to tune up for Full Gear.

Winner: Kris Statlander, by pinfall
Shida gave Kris a powerful match, but clearly Shida has to iron out her own crisis of confidence. Kris still shows Shida respect by helping her up. But wait, here comes Mercedes Mone & Kamille! The fans boo The CEO & Brickhouse but Mone has a mic. “Readiiiiing~! Say hello to your C E O!” The fans boo instead. Mone asks Kamille if she wants to hear a fun fact about Pennsylvania. The 76ers have had yet another terrible season! Embarrassing~! But shoutouts to Mone’s Celtics for another incredible victory. The fans boo Boston but Mone says another person with an incredible win was Kris Statlander. Mone is rarely impressed by her competition.
Does anyone else want to hear another fun fact? “NO!!” Well, Mone has held the TBS Championship longer than Kris! So at Full Gear, Mone will NOT lose, because she is The CEO, the greatest TBS Champion of all time! And she will NEVER lose this title! Fans tell The CEO to STFU, but Mone tells Kamille go get the job done! She is so pissed off! GO! NOW! Kamille walks up the steps past Mone, but with only one good arm! Mone says hurry up, but Kamille looks at both Shida and Kris. Kamille takes as swing, but Kris blocks to ROCK her! Shida QUESTION MARK KICKS Kamille! Then Kris & Shida TOSS The Brickhouse!
Shida goes out after Kamille, but then Mone goes after Kris! Mone goes for the backstabber, but Kris holds onto ropes! Mone is almost stuck up there, but Kris pops her around! STATURDAY NIGHT FEVER!! The fans fire up as Kris stands tall over The CEO! Will Kris once again become the Face of TBS? Or will Mone find a way to win even without her insurance policy?
The Hurt Syndicate has a cameraman with them.
MVP says hold on, he and Shelton have found Swerve. They go after the man in the big fur jacket, but that’s not Swerve! Swerve gave his jacket to the guy, but MVP & Shelton still beat this guy up for helping Swerve. MVP says they’ll find Swerve later, Lashley has his match up next. And it’ll be a 2-on-1 Handicap?! The All Mighty really IS mad, what poor duo is about to be destroyed?
AEW hears from Jay White and Hangman Adam Page.
“Hangman. You and I are on that same path to that same destination, trying to grasp at that same prize. 2024 still has some time left for The Switchblade to share the spotlight with Hangman once more!” But the Blackhat Cowboy asks White if he knows “Who the hell I am?! I am the Hangman! I am THE man! They named this whole godforsaken PPV after ME!” White says when he makes Hangman TAP, it will be a public declaration! But Hangman says White can’t make him tap, even if his life depended on it! These two vicious gunslingers will write one more chapter in their storied rivalry, but who comes out riding off into the sunset?
2v1 Handicap: Bobby Lashley w/ The Hurt Syndicate VS Joe Keys & Cheeseburger!
The All Mighty thought he’d have an easy night getting in a little warm-up, but The Realest quickly reminded him why he’s the most dangerous man in AEW! Lashley’s now doubling down to make a point, will there be nothing left of Keys & Cheese after tonight?
The bell rings and while the fans rally for Cheeseburger, he and Keys each argue the other should start. Lashley runs up and TOSSES Burger across the ring!

MVP & Shelton join Lashley in the ring to celebrate, but then “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” The fans fire up, and here comes Prince Nana with a chair! Nana eggs the Hurt Syndicate on so Shelton storms out after Nana. MVP watches the rest of ringside for Swerve, but Swerve slides out from under the ring! The fans fire up as Swerve slips in to CHAIN PUNCH Lashley!! MVP gets on the apron but Swerve DECKS MVP with a chain punch! And then Shelton eats a chain punch! The fans are thunderous as Swerve aims, and hits a HOUSE CALL on Lashley! Swerve hurries to the top rope, and he gives Lashley a KILL STOMP!!
The fans are thunderous as Swerve stands over Lashley! MVP & Shelton get up and get in, but Swerve escapes, chain draped on his neck! Will AEW then, now and forever be whose house? “SWERVE’S HOUSE!”
Backstage interview with Mariah May & Mina Shirakawa.
Renee is now with the AEW Women’s World Champion and her best friend, the Rev-Pro Undisputed British Women’s Champion. They are planning their Championship Champagne Celebration for Full Gear, BUT Friday Night Rampage will feature the two of them teaming up for the first time in just over a year. Mariah says no champion deserves a celebration more than her. Her rise to the top was meteoric, and her reign will be historic. She takes ish and makes it shine, any time and any show, against anyone. In Mariah’s division, you hold this title, or you die.
Mina says yes, Mariah has been working so hard. She came back to tell her she is so very proud. And Mina will give Mariah a celebration she’ll never forget! Mariah says the “H Cup Angel” (Mina) and the “Woman from Hell” (Mariah herself) are going to make Rampage into Glampage. Everyone wants Mina, but Mina wants Mariah. And then… They’ll dance! These two shimmy and shake their way out, will they finally be toasting their victories at Full Gear?
Darby Allin VS Claudio Castagnoli w/ The Death Riders!
The Relentless One told The Swiss Superman that revenge was coming, and here is Darby’s chance! Will Darby avenge Bryan Danielson? Or will he just be the next to fall?
The bell rings and Darby stares Claudio down. Darby takes some deep breaths then circles with Claudio. Darby slips around to waistlock but Claudio flings him off, only for Darby to roll to his feet. They circle again, and the fans rally behind Darby. Darby and Claudio feel things out, tie up, and Darby headlocks. Claudio lifts Darby but Darby thrashes the hold. Claudio throws Darby off, runs up, but Darby uses that to get around and springboard arm-drag! The fans fire up while Claudio bails out, and Darby taunts Claudio with some drop steps.

Fans freak out as Darby hits the floor! Claudio leaves Darby behind while the ring count climbs, but Darby drags himself up at 7. Claudio goes back out after Darby to suplex! Claudio holds Darby up while he marches up the steps! The fans fire up for this feat of strength and balance, and then Claudio TOSSES Darby back into the ring! Darby writhes again while Claudio steps back in. Claudio stalks Darby, talks some trash, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Claudio looms over Darby, then deadlift gut wrenches for a GUTBUSTER! And then another GUTBUSTER! And then another GUTBUSTER! Darby writhes while Claudio stands over him again. Claudio watches Darby crawl towards a corner and stalks him. Claudio drags Darby up, brings him around, and ROCKS Darby with a forearm! Darby pushes Claudio, then CHOPS! Claudio DECKS Darby! Darby tumbles out of the ring! The ref wants Claudio to stay back while Darby drags himself up. Darby is back in before the count starts, but then Claudio DOUBLE STOMPS him! Claudio kicks Darby around, then clamps on with a neck wrench!
Darby endures, fights up, but Claudio powers him down. Darby BITES Claudio’s hand! The ref reprimands but Darby fires off forearms on Claudio. Claudio HIP TOSSES Darby up and out of the ring! Darby hits the floor and flounders around while the ref reprimands Claudio. Claudio again waits on Darby, and then he DOUBLE STOMPS Darby the moment he’s in! The ref counts as Claudio stands on Darby at the ropes. Claudio steps off at 4, brings him around, and clamps on an armlock and chinbar.

Darby truly is relentless, with durability like no other, but it just wasn’t enough against the strength and brutality of Claudio! Will no one stop The Death Riders from running roughshod over AEW?
Backstage interview with Private Party.
Renee is with Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy and brings up that at Full Gear, the AEW World Tag Team Championships are on the line in a Fatal 4 Way. Private Party takes on The Acclaimed, The Outrunners and The Kings of the Black Throne. In such a match, the champs do NOT have to be pinned or submitted to lose their titles, so what is their strategy? Brother Zay says they obviously can’t tell her that, the other teams are watching. But it seems like the odds are against them. Fortunately, the odds have been against them their whole lives, their whole careers, just like against The Young Bucks.
But look what happened: Private Party defied the odds, beat The Bucks, and are your AEW World Tag Team Champions. That is the same thing that happens on Saturday. They leave Newark, New Jersey still your tag team champions. Because there ain’t no party like a Private Party, that’s a flex. Oh, speaking of! It’s AJ & Big Justice! They’re fired up to be here, but Justice wants to know what that face Zay made was last week. Oh, right, this one, with the chin scratching. And AJ says they’ve got a BIG announcement coming up after this! Maybe some double chunk chocolate cookies? BOOM!!
A green Porsche Taycan pulls up to the middle of nowhere.
And out steps MJF. The Wolf of Wrestling tells the hobo to “go get it” as he throws spare change off to the side like birdseed. MVP then sits back and tells Roderick Strong, “You’ve been through so much. The kid who grew up trailer park trash with two abusive alcoholic parents. For crying out loud! Your own mother shot your father right in front of you. That’s traumatizing. And as you know, Roddy, trauma is the result of an overwhelming sense of danger, powerlessness and fear. However, healing is a result of feeling safe, empowered and supported. That’s why you’d do anything for Cole. He makes you feel all those positive things that you lacked.
“It’s why I was no different than you. It’s why I trusted him. Unfortunately, the difference between you and I: Cole for me was a mirage of what I wanted him to be. A fraud, a liar. And whilst Cole is a fraud, I do actually believe deep down, in his narcissistic, sociopathic, frail, feeble frame, is a man who cares about Roderick Strong. This is precisely why upon further contemplation, I am happy you won, Roddy. Because I want Adam Cole to watch a person he cares about suffer! And because of your White trash upbringing, you aren’t intelligent enough to realize that you don’t have a prayer. And I’m sending you back to where you belong. To your grimy little trailer park.
“And after the match, you’ll be in so much physical anguish, you’ll wish your mother hadn’t shot your father, but instead shot you.” As if this scumbag couldn’t stoop any lower, he brings up Roddy’s past to hurt him. But will Roddy make sure MJF’s future is the one full of pain and suffering?
Backstage interview with AJ & Big Justice.
Renee is with the Costco Tiktok sensations and says that in the Full Gear Zero Hour, we will see #BigBoomAJ take on QT Marshall in a match 20 YEARS in the making. AJ says it may have been 20 years in the making for QT, this all started for AJ when QT threw the double chunk chocolate cookies down! Renee says AJ has not been in the ring in those 20 years, is he concerned about how his body will hold up? AJ isn’t worried about that, because he just has one strategy, and that’s the strategy they use each and every day. That strategy is to bring the BOOM~! But hey, there’s another special announcement.
Because when AJ rings QT’s bell, and he Power-Booms QT right in the middle of that ring, there is only one guy they want ringing the bell: Big Justice’s best friend, THE RIZZLER! Time to bring the BOOM~! Will QT be sleeping on the mat for The Rizzler? Will he be skibidi? Fanum Tax? Why are those even words?
Tony Schiavone is on stage.
And he welcomes out The Undisputed Kingdom! The fans cheer as Roderick Strong makes his way out, accompanied by Matt Taven & Mike Bennett. Schiavone brings up Roddy VS MJF at Full Gear, and we just heard all that disgusting stuff MJF had to say. Roddy’s response is that to be honest, he has not slept a wink since last week. IT is finally happening! Roddy feels like a kid on Christmas morning. He finally gets his hands on “MAAAAAX~!” The fans echo that, and Roddy says if MJF was here tonight, and not hiding out there, Roddy would ask him: Is Roddy supposed to be ashamed of his childhood?
Is Roddy supposed to be ashamed of his parents? You don’t think Roddy’s heard that stuff before? His whole LIFE, that is what people brought up! His mom’s an addict, his dad’s an addict, mom shot dad. Good job, Max, you made Roddy feel like he was in elementary school again. And people may look at Roddy’s past and feel sorry for him, but Roddy asks us not to. Because looking at MJF, Roddy feels sorry for him. Understand this, Max. With Roddy’s life, he learned that to get the most out of life, you have to earn it. If you wanna break the cycle, you have to earn it. And that is what Roddy’s done ever since he was a kid!
And now looking at MJF, he’s been spoon-fed everything. And when something doesn’t go his way or something happens and he doesn’t like it, MJF throws a temper tantrum like a baby until that changes. So Roddy wants MJF to do something for him: Look in the mirror and think about all the things that MJF has done to people. The manipulating, the backstabbing, the using. MJF needs to realize, when the bell rings at Full Gear, MJF will pay for all those sins. With every chop, with every punch, with every elbow, with every backbreaker! And when it is all over, Roddy walks to his hotel room for the best night of sleep in his life because he earned it.
Especially because Roddy will know he has broken MJF’s back, and left him humbled! Roddy is all fired up, and the fans are with him! Will MJF finally get what’s coming to him? Or will he give Roddy nightmares for the rest of his life?
AEW shares footage taken from last Saturday night.
First, a recap video of Daniel Garcia thwarting Jack Perry’s attempts to abduct and torture Matthew Menard, as well as the joyride they took in the Scapegoat bus, with Perry as the hood ornament. And now, they have Perry strapped into a chair, the bus headlights as the only source of light. Menard is behind the camera as he asks Perry how he’s feeling. How’d that work out for him, huh? Garcia splashes Perry with water to wake him up, and says “Let’s have a conversation. I’m all ears.” Perry chuckles and says Garcia thinks he’s so much better than him. Look at where they are! Garcia shouts back that he doesn’t wanna be here!
Garcia just wants to wrestle, but AEW is full of savages! Perry tried to take Daddy Magic’s life! And those in power just sit back and watch, pretending that nothing’s going on. So what do they do? Gotta take the power back, right? Perry counters with, “Everybody’s got a code. Everybody cares about right and wrong until it costs them something. Until they have to SACRIFICE!” Garcia gets in Perry’s face, grabs him by the mouth, and says Perry’s always going on about sacrifice but Perry has no idea what Garcia’s had to go through! Perry has NO idea what Garcia’s had to sacrifice to be here!
Garcia knows where Perry wants him to go, but Garcia promises that he’s never gonna go there. Perry smirks, then SPITS in Garcia’s face. Garcia wipes that off his face and says bet. Garcia’s got something for Perry, so just wait right there. Garcia goes to the bus while Perry mockingly asks what he’s gonna do. Menard tells shut up, Jack! Life must be so hard for him! What’s Jack got to be sad about?! Garcia comes back and he has a crowbar! Perry dares him to go ahead. Garcia raises the bar, but he SMASHES up the bus! Garcia throws the crowbar away and Perry laughs. Is that it? Garcia tells Menard they’ll get out of here. What? Where’s Garcia going?
Perry says yeah, walk away. Menard tells Perry that Garcia’s gonna whoop his ass! Just wait! Menard leaves, Perry shouts into the night, but will The Face of TNT soon be the one sacrificed for the greater good?
Renee Paquette presides over the ROH World Championship contract signing.
She welcomes us backstage to the signing for this match, which will happen next week, Dynamite: Thanksgiving Eve, in Chicago. The challenger, Tomohiro Ishii, is on her left, and the champion, Chris Jericho, is on her right. Jericho, as champion, you have the honors to sign first. Jericho smiles and waves as he says, “Hi, guys.” But Renee, you should know better. A champion of Jericho’s caliber does not just sign a contract thrust at his face randomly. He has a whole legal team that needs to approve this contract. Renee says it was sent to said legal team last week. Oh, really? What about today? The now! Jericho lives in the now!
Jericho says he’ll get this checked by his legal eagles one more time. But for now, wait here. Choto matte kudesai. Jericho steps around the corner and then down the hall. He smiles at his own picture on the wall. What a good looking guy. But wait, Ishii has followed Jericho to the hall. Jericho is a bit worried as he keeps moving. Jericho tries to block Ishii’s path but a trash can isn’t enough. Jericho tells staffers that Ishii wants to talk to them. They step in the way but Ishii pushes them aside. Jericho moves faster, pushes more people in the way, but Ishii pushes them aside. Was that RJ City?
Jericho goes up some stairs but Ishii follows. Ishii’s even gaining ground! Jericho goes through a doorway and ends up in the concourse! Fans cheer as Jericho and Ishii keep up their cat ‘n’ mouse game. Jericho decides to go into the stands! Ishii follows, and they head down the bleachers towards ringside! Jericho hurries over railing but so does Ishii. They go into the ring, and now Jericho tells Ishii to stop following him! Jericho wants a mic, a mic is brought, and Jericho says hey, listen, Ishii. Jericho would sign this contract, but he doesn’t have a pen. Ishii has a pen! Oh. Ishii clicks it for Jericho, and pushes it into him.
Jericho takes the pen, looks at the contract again, and still hesitates. Jericho signs his part, and then hands things over to Ishii. But then BRYAN KEITH & BIG BILL ATTACK! It was all a massive set-up! Bad Apple & Redwood beat down Stone Pitbull, and then sit him up! Jericho has the pen ready, but here comes The Conglomeration! Mark Briscoe & Rocky Romero rush in, and Mark TACKLES Jericho! Rocky fires off on Bill while Mark CHOKES Jericho! Keith saves Jericho from Mark but Mark fires hands on Keith! The fans fire up, but then Bill SKYSCRAPER- NO, Mark UPPERCUTS Bill first! Rocky adds on!
The fans fire up as The Conglomeration pinballs Bill, and then Ishii CLOBBERS him! Bill tumbles out, but Rocky DIVES! Bill is sent into railing! Keith stands up, into a kick and underhooks! JAY DRILLER! Jericho stands up, Ishii has him, and hits a BRAINBUSTER!! Conglomeration stands tall over The Learning Tree and his Branches, and now Ishii signs his part! The match is now official, and Ishii is looking to take a bite out of Jericho! Will The Conglomeration have the ROH World Championship to be thankful for this year?
Backstage interview with Jamie Hayter.
Renee is with the former AEW Women’s World Champion and notes that last time, we were going to hear from her, only for her to be interrupted by Julia Hart. What is Hayter’s reaction to that? Well, yeah, she isn’t angry, but she is baffled why Julia chose to interrupt Hayter. They’ve never really spoken or interacted, or even wrestled each other. Hayter is just curious as to why Julia felt it was okay to do that. Granted, Julia can do whatever she wants, Hayter moves to the beat of her own drum just as much as Julia. But… if Julia wants to have a chat-
Uh oh, something is happening to the video! Brody King’s message echoes, “It’s time to come home.” Julia Hart walks through the woods. Brody says The House is her foundation. She has seen her rebirth. Now it is time to rebuild. She has woken up stronger, more determined, and more dangerous than ever. Julia aims her arrow to shoot down a target: her past self. Her obstacles are just bull’s eyes. She is the Princess of the Black Throne, and the Keeper of Secrets. She is Julia Hart, and her heart grows harder. She hits her mark, but will she find Hayter Hits Hard?
Orange Cassidy VS Wheeler Yuta!
Freshly Squeezed has been accused of being coldblooded and uncaring, but he got pretty heated as he told The Conglomeration to keep themselves safe tonight. He goes 1v1 with The Decoder, a young man who was once Cassidy’s student, and who left him behind to join the then Blackpool Combat Club. If anyone is uncaring, it is Yuta with how he would then follow Jon Moxley’s lead in the destruction of Bryan Danielson and Chuck Taylor. Who will be the more ferocious fighter tonight, this close to Full Gear?
The bell rings and Yuta SHOTGUNS Cassidy! Yuta follows Cassidy to a corner to CHOP, then ROCK, then CHOP again! Yuta whips corner to corner but Cassidy goes up and out. Cassidy bumps Yuta off buckles, climbs up top, but has to leap over. Yuta comes back but Cassidy catches him to a backslide! TWO, but Cassidy reels Yuta in for a cradle! TWO! Yuta pulls on an ear! But Cassidy arm-drags and wrangles Yuta into the SEATBELT! TWO!! Yuta escapes and the fans fire up as these two stand off. Yuta huffs ‘n’ puffs, but Cassidy shows he wants a grapple. They feel things out, knuckle lock, but Cassidy blocks a kick!
Cassidy reels Yuta in for a headlock, but Yuta powers up and out. Cassidy ducks ‘n’ rolls, tilt-o-whirls, but Yuta suplexes! Into STUN DOG MILLIONAIRE! Yuta tumbles out and fans fire up! Cassidy builds speed to DIVE! Down goes Yuta and the fans fire up again! Cassidy brings Yuta up, whips, but Yuta reverses to reel Cassidy in! Cassidy fights the suplex, but then Yuta fights a suplex. Yuta suplexes, to RAILING BRAINBUSTER!! Cassidy writhes and fans are stunned! Yuta stomps Cassidy, then leaves him behind for the ring count. Cassidy crawls into the ring, Yuta exposes a crossbar, and then he GRINDS Cassidy’s face into the steel!
The fans boo, the ref reprimands, but Yuta steps off at 4. Cassidy seethes as he rises up, but Yuta has him at the corner. Cassidy kicks Yuta’s legs out and Yuta falls onto a turnbuckle! Yuta falls back, Cassidy climbs, but Yuta grabs Cassidy first! Yuta drags Cassidy down but Cassidy fires hands. Yuta squeezes the facelock tight, then hits an APRON DDT! The fans boo Yuta while Cassidy writhes, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Cassidy clutches his neck while Yuta waits in the ring. A ring count starts and Yuta eggs Cassidy on. Cassidy reaches up as the count reaches 5 of 10, but he doesn’t sit up until 6. Cassidy hobbles up, stumbles and falls, but springs back to life! He slides in at 9! Only for Yuta to be right on him! Yuta reels Cassidy in, but Cassidy turns that into BEACH BREAK! Cover, TWO!! Yuta survives but Cassidy is too sore to be frustrated. They both sit up, and Yuta crawls his way over to a corner. Cassidy rises, checks his neck, then runs up, but into an ELBOW! Yuta goes up, but Cassidy JUMP FOREARMS! Cassidy positions Yuta just right before he climbs the corner.
Yuta resists but Cassidy still brings Yuta up. Yuta continues to fight the suplex, throws body shots, then shoves Cassidy down. Cassidy rolls back to his feet, runs back up the corner, but Yuta again fights the suplex! Cassidy fires hands, but Yuta fires back! They brawl up top, Cassidy HEADBUTTS Yuta! But Yuta HEADBUTTS back! They both wobble, but then Cassidy BITES Yuta! The ref reprimands, but Cassidy CLAWS Yuta’s back! This is very Moxley of him to do! And then Cassidy hits the SUPERPLEX! Both men are down and the ref checks. They’re both okay to continue, so a standing count begins!
Cassidy sits up, spots Yuta, and heads that way. Yuta sits up, they fire forearms as they stand! Dynamite returns to single picture as these shots go back and forth. The fans fire up for Cassidy but boo Yuta as the shots go faster and faster! Yuta BITES Cassidy’s forehead! Yuta spits then runs, but Cassidy dodges! BODY BLOW! SUPERKICK! Yuta sits down, Cassidy runs, PENALTY KICK! Cassidy slashes his throat, hauls Yuta up, BRAINBUSTER! Cover, TWO!! Yuta survives but Cassidy seethes. Cassidy rains down fists on Yuta! The ref reprimands about closed fists and hair pulling, but Cassidy doesn’t stop until the ref counts 4.
Cassidy stands, and he throws off the elbow pad! Cassidy aims at Yuta, runs up, but Yuta ducks the punch! GERMAN SUPLEX! Yuta runs to CHOP in the corner! And then a wrench and PAIN THRILLER! The fans boo while Yuta seethes and stands over Cassidy. Yuta sits Cassidy up, for HAMMER ‘N’ ANVIL ELBOWS! But Cassidy blocks one! And bends fingers, to then SNAP them! The fans fire up as Cassidy SNAPS finger after finger! Yuta swings, Cassidy BOOTS him, then serves up SOLE FOOD! Scoop and MICHINOKU DRIVER! Cover, TWO!! Cassidy is busting out all his best friends’ best moves, but he hasn’t gotten it done!
Cassidy aims, loads up, and ORANGE- NO, Yuta ducks! Orange fights the suplex, switches to O’Conner Roll! TWO, Yuta dodges Cassidy, scoops him, and CROSS LEG TOMBSTONE!! Cover, TWO?!? Cassidy survives and Yuta is furious! The fans are thunderous, but Yuta rains down HAMMER ‘N’ ANVIL ELBOWS! Cassidy grits his teeth but he’s almost a ragdoll! Yuta lets off to then hook the arms, CATTLE MUTILATION!! Cassidy endures as Yuta thrashes him around! Cassidy powers up as the fans rally, and he kicks around to the ROPEBREAK!! Yuta holds on, the ref counts, and Yuta finally lets go at 4!
The ref reprimands Yuta, but Yuta pushes past the ref to go outside the ring. Yuta grabs a chair! Yuta storms into the ring while the fans boo, and the ref says don’t do it! Cassidy dodges the chair shot! Victory roll, CASSIDY WINS!!
Winner: Orange Cassidy, by pinfall
Yuta is in disbelief! Cassidy beat him with a technical move! Yuta snarls but the ref keeps him back. Cassidy did what he promised in beating Yuta, but then he stares his former student down. Is Cassidy going to offer a handshake? WAIT, PAC ATTACKS! The Bastard BOOTS Cassidy down so we’ll never know what Cassidy was going to do! The fans boo more but Pac & Yuta stand on Cassidy. The rest of the Death Riders appear, and Marina Shafir has duct tape! The AEW World Trios Champions stomp away on Cassidy, like vultures picking the bones. Moxley steps into the ring while Marina hands the tape over to Pac.
Claudio puts Cassidy’s hands in his pockets, and then Pac tapes them in! Cassidy is physically bound, and Moxley paces around. Cassidy is pushed around by all the Death Riders, then Moxley DECKS him! Claudio hauls Cassidy back up, the Death Riders keep bullying him, and then Moxley SLAPS Cassidy down! But the bullying continues as they stand Cassidy up. Cassidy “kicks” Moxley! Defiant to the end! But Moxley DECKS him again! Moxley paces around more, then stomps Cassidy right on the face! Moxley leads The Death Riders away, and The Conglomeration finally comes out here.
Mark has scissors to cut Cassidy loose, and the fans boo as The Death Riders still retreat. Cassidy tries to stand up, but he has to use ropes to do it. Even so, Cassidy stands on his own two feet. Moxley eggs on the fans while Cassidy puts his sunglasses on. And then hands up, and then into the pockets! Try as they might, The Death Riders could not break the Freshly Squeezed fighting spirit! Will Cassidy finally become AEW World Champion? Or will Moxley find a way to break Cassidy at Full Gear?
My Thoughts:
A great go-home Dynamite here, though it felt like it contracted Go Home Syndrome. A lot of recap and other promos, but good promos all the same. Good follow-up from last week with Hayter and Hart, that will probably really get going after Full Gear. Good promo from Mariah & Mina to hype up their celebration segment for Full Gear, and with Toni Storm’s announcement of her retirement, you can bet Toni is anything but retired! Toni Storm most assuredly will return very soon, maybe even to ruin the celebration and spark another feud. I still want us to get to Mariah VS Mina but maybe Storm moves things back so that Mariah VS Mina happens in 2025.
Good promo from Private Party to also have AJ & Big Justice show up. The promos didn’t really add much to any of the matches, though. I’m very sure AJ does hit the BOOM on QT to win, and then Private Party finds a way to survive the Fatal 4. Great stuff with Perry, Garcia and Menard, that was another very action movie kind of promo, maybe even like that grittier Batman movie. But with Garcia not sinking to the same lows as Perry, that will be why Garcia loses. Honestly, why not just have Perry blatantly get himself disqualified? What great heat for Perry while keeping Garcia strong in not becoming TNT Champion.
Great promos in this MJF story. I appreciate Cole throwing his support behind Roddy was good, as well as Kyle O’Reilly wanting Cole to just leave it at this. MJF of course insults Roddy over his past while also trashing Cole at the same time, but great response from Roddy. Also I’m not a car guy so it took me a little too long to Google out what car MJF was driving. Anyway, given all these promos, I am very confident MJF wins at Full Gear and then Cole still wants after MJF, only for Kyle to have to fight Cole to make him stop. Then we’ll maybe get Cole VS MJF at Worlds End, or even some time in 2025.
Very good stuff with The Hurt Syndicate, even with them getting jumped by Swerve. Poor Cheeseburger, that’s one fan favorite that got fed to Bobby Lashley. But Swerve getting the better of the Hurt Syndicate again and again tonight, all the more reason Lashley wins at Full Gear. Very good promo vignette from White and Hangman to hype up their grudge match, which still feels it could go either way since they’re tied on the year. And Jericho and Ishii had perhaps simultaneously the most clever and most ridiculous contract signing segment ever. And of course Jericho worked out some sort of trap, only for it to go badly for him and his team. But with that, that means Ishii is losing next week, as I figured he would.
Awesome opening match with the 8 Man, and I liked that they had Hobbs do the “fighting through the pain” angle in the match. Also, great bit with Kyle Fletcher sending Davis into harm’s way so that the Callis Family can get the better of Ospreay’s team. I thought the Faces were going to win here, but the math now says Ospreay finds a way to beat Kyle, and maybe Ricochet takes the International Championship from Konosuke Takeshita. The Continental Classic is coming, and they could easily use that round robin to get Konosuke back to a feud with Kazuchika Okada and they battle for the Continental Championship at Worlds End like we should’ve gotten at WrestleDream.
Awesome match from Kris VS Shida, and I appreciate the crisis of confidence for Shida. Kris gets a great win to go into Full Gear, and then Kris and Shida get the better of Mone & Kamille, so all the more reason Mone finds a way to survive. As for Kamille, I feel like she should ditch Mone for being treated like crap by Mone, and maybe we can get a feud of Mone VS Kamille going into 2025. And of course, plenty of promos from Death Riders and “Team AEW” members. Moxley just kinda went on and on about stuff he’s already said in reference to Cassidy, but I did like Claudio going bilingual in talking trash on Darby.
Awesome matches from those stories, of course. Darby really got thrown around but he continues to show that toughness. Claudio getting the win mostly keeps Darby back so that Darby can build towards a world title match at Worlds End. Cassidy VS Yuta was great stuff, too, with great back and forth of Cassidy wanting to end it quick, having to grit it out with Yuta, and then Cassidy still finding a way to end it with a quick pin. And they did a good job muddying the math. Cassidy wins the match, but the Death Riders beat him down, only for Cassidy to literally stand tall at the end of the show. I still don’t see him taking the world title from Moxley, though, with Darby still in the wings, but this could end up Cassidy’s best match yet.
My Score: 8.9/10

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

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

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

Rush leaps over but Caster runs him over! Rush runs Caster over! The fans fire up, but Caster says hold on! Tranquilo! Caster raises the ingobernable fist, Rush is moderately amused, but then Caster sucker punches him! Rush scowls and DECKS Caster! Rush goes out to grab his favorite green cable! Mortos distracts the ref, but Caster fires hands on Rush first! And Caster uses the cable! The fans cheer as Rush tastes his own medicine!
But then Rush SLINGS Caster to the floor! Billy is upset but the ref wants him to stay back. Billy tries to point out the shenanigans, but Collision goes picture in picture.
The ref is busy with Billy and that lets Rush LASH Caster with the cable! Rush SMACKS Caster off the desk, Caster scrambles into the ring, but Rush anchors his leg. Rush drags Caster up, CHOPS him then ROCKS him, then bumps him off buckles. Tag to Mortos and Mortos SMACKS Caster! Cover, TWO! Caster toughs it out but Mortos NECK GTWISTS! Cover, TWO! Mortos stalks Caster to a corner while Private Party watches closely. Mortos SMACKS Caster again! Mortos puts Caster in the corner, taunts Bowens, and while the ref is busy with Bowens, that lets The Snake get in cheap shots!
Billy and Bowens both protest, but Mortos wrenches Caster. Tag to Rush and LFI mugs Caster. Caster goes to a corner but Rush whips corner to corner. Rush runs up and feints the dropkick to SMACK Caster! Rush soaks up the cheers and jeers while he blows a kiss. Rush drags Caster up to snapmare and motorcycle stretch. Caster endures but Jake is happy with this. Caster fights up, but Rush throws him down by his hair! Private Party doesn’t like how this is going for Acclaimed, but Rush taunts Bowens. The ref has ot keep Bownse back again, and Rush drags Caster back. Tag to Mortos and LFI mugs Caster more while Collision goes to break.

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

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