Jake Hager says everything Jericho has touched has been incredible, impactful and transcends for generations. #ThankYouJericho for three DECADES of greatness!

FTW World Championship: Brian Cage w/ Taz VS Will Hobbs!
Who can stop the Path of Cage? The Embodiment of Willpower is going to give it a try! Will Hobbs show he has the power to be the next alpha male to hold this title? Or will the Machine show us why Taz anointed him with this title in the first place?

Will Hobbs may be big and strong, but so is Cage, so it all came down to endurance! Cage outlasted Hobbs and holds onto the title, but Team Taz isn’t done yet. Taz wants Starks and Cage to wait as he tells Hobbs to pay attention. “That was impressive. You are impressive, I will give you that.” Hobbs didn’t win but he fought his ass off. Now, Team Taz will play the Option Game. Option A: Hobbs takes the offer of a lifetime and JOINS Team Taz! Option B: Hobbs refuses Option A and Starks and Cage beat the hell out of him! What is Hobbs’ answer? Darby Allin makes it for him by showing up! Team Taz backs off, not wanting to take a shot from the skateboard.

Rockstar icon Slash congratulates Jericho on this amazing run. It’s commendable, Jericho is definitely a survivor. Dennis Miller says Jericho is 30 years in, still not eroded by the elements. Still an impenetrable fortress who is also hilarious and a good man. Congrats, brother. NJPW’s Hiroshi Tanahashi, one of Jericho’s opponents during his more recent excursions there, gives “Jericho-san” congratulations on 30 years!
Jericho’s hockey legend father, Ted Irvine, congratulates Jericho on his journey. Jericho has represented the world of pro-wrestling with honor against some of the greatest names in the world, and is now opening the door to many young wrestlers, male and female, wanting to live that same dream as he has. And he’s also been entertaining everyone around the world for those 30 years. Le Champion isn’t done yet, and Ted is excited to see the next 30 years! Get going, kick butt and get your butt kicked, so long as you keep entertaining us. He’s so good at it! And here’s a toast of a little bit o’ the bubbly! Speaking of the bubbly, Bully Ray is chugging some down! Rock on, Jericho!
AEW hears from Lance Archer.
“Jon Moxley, this ain’t the first time we’ve stepped in the ring together. January 4th, 2020, NJPW Wrestle Kingdom. We tore it down in the Texas Death Match.” But Archer learned a lot since then, and things will be very different come October 14th. Archer is pissed off, is angry and ready to kick some ass. And Moxley, that ass will be yours. Moxley has taken his time “playing around” with Eddie Kingston and The Butcher. Those guys are badass, but they’re NOT Archer. Archer couldn’t be stopped by 20 men, so Moxley stands no chance in hell! Moxley will wish he took all that time to prepare for Archer, because this won’t be pretty. Archer promises he is going to have a damn good time! But will the Dynamite Anniversary see the beginning of the Murderhawk Monster Era?
AEW World Tag Team Championship Brush with Greatness: FTR w/ Tully Blanchard VS The Hybrid2!
Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood have been “a couple of weenies” lately, using any excuse they can come up with to avoid Best Friends. But will Jack Evans and Angelico make FTR regret giving them a shot instead?
As both teams make their entrances, the Young Bucks are watching backstage. Matt and Nick Jackson also want their own match with FTR, will FTR still be champions by the time they get their shot? Or will their bad behavior trump their win-loss record?

Winner: FTR, by pinfall (still AEW World Tag Team Champions)
The champs win within their own imposed time limit, but it was still a close one! Will the Brush with Greatness continue to sweep contenders aside?
The Young Bucks are a bit beside themselves watching this backstage. Nick admits FTR was pretty good. Matt sees the camera is live. Are they spying on the Bucks? Is Matt thinking what Nick is thinking? Their favorite move, the DOUBLE SUPERKICK! They knock the cameraman down! Well, sorry about that. But they forgot their wallets, so they can’t really pay the fine right now. Oops.
Wait a minute, who put the graphic of FTR dressed as hot dogs up? Well, who else? Here comes Best Friends! It’s even a shirt now! Chuck and Trent hope they get the joke. The hot dogs are wieners, cuz they’re weenies. Fans chant, “Weenies! Weenies!” as Trent says they as “comedy backyard wrestlers,” are just trying to tell FTR that they are weenies. But what’s not a joke is that Best Friends are THE #1 contenders. And oddly enough, they just walked past Tony Khan, and he told them their title match is LIVE for the Dynamite Anniversary! FTR rubs the belts in Best Friends’ faces, then they swing on ’em! Best Friends dodge the belt shots to DECK FTR!
They brawl, Best Friends whip FTR but FTR bails out! Fans boo the “Weenies!” but Best Friends hold up the belts! Will FTR have to #FaceTheReality that Trent and Chuck might seriously take those titles from them?
MJF talks about Chris Jericho.
“Thirty years. What can I say that hasn’t already been said about Chris Jericho?” Here’s a story. They say, “Never meet your heroes,” but MJF is inclined to disagree. The first time MJF really got to talk to Jericho was after Double or Nothing. MJF was “slightly inebriated” and it was his big first brush with being a real star here. Jericho walked right up to MJF at the after party and said, “You’ve really got something. Keep it up, don’t stop, keep studying, and don’t be afraid to pick and take little nuances from people you look up to.” MJF took his index finger and pointed at Jericho. Jericho smiled and MJF will never forget that.
As their friendship “begins to bloom more and more each week,” MJF just wants Jericho to know how proud MJF is of him, and how inspired he is by him. MJF may or may not show up in person to congratulate Jericho himself tonight.
More friends and fans congratulate Jericho!
Shaquille O’Neal tells “Christopher Bartholomew Jericho” that for having 30 years in pro-wrestling, “legend” is an understatement. Whatever is above legend, that’s Jericho. Thanks for entertaining us all! Gene Simmons wishes Jericho a happy 30th anniversary. Jericho has been on his hands and knees all his life working for this, but it’s spectacular. Maybe he’ll get somewhere some day. Don Callis says Jericho is still the exact same guy who was sitting next to Callis on the bus for that 12 hour road trip. Don’t change now, and have another great 30 years! Lars Ulrich congratulates Jericho on 30 years! Thirty years?! Hell yeah! Thirty years of kicking ass, being super cool and just doing what he does with that big lion heart. Diamond Dallas Page tells the Painmaker, Le Champion, the Demo God is most importantly a brother. Congratulations, Jericho.
AEW TNT Championship Dog Collar Match: Brodie Lee VS Cody Rhodes!
Mr. Brodie thought he had vanquished the American Nightmare, but then he returned only five weeks later with a new look and a new edge! Cody vows there are no regrets, there is no looking back, and no denying that they both will be much different after this match! But has Cody only made this worse for himself acting on emotion?

People suggested he should take a dark path because he darkened his hair and it means he went another route. “To hell with that!” Cody is sticking with the fans until the very end!

AEW returns and has news for the contender’s tournament!
We already learned that Jungle Boy, Rey Fenix and Kenny Omega are among the eight in this single elimination tournament to name a contender to the AEW World Championship. Three more names have been decided! Wardlow, Colt Cabana and Hangman Page are now part of the bracket! We only have two more contenders to name, who will they be?
Backstage interview with Kenny Omega.
Alex Marvez talks with Omega about the contender’s tournament. He’s back full time as a singles competitor, how does it feel? It feels GOOD! He was waiting for over a year to get back in the hunt for the AEW World Championship, and what better way to do it than in an tournament? If there’s been a tournament somewhere in the world, Omega has won it. If you’ve had a tournament somewhere in the year, he’s probably entered and won it! And this tournament will be like no other! Jungle Boy, Rey Fenix, Colt Cabana, Wardlow and his tag team partner, Hangman Page. Yes, even tag team wrestlers have an interest in the world championship! This will be the premier tournament to watch! And the one where Omega finally stakes his claim on the world title belt.
So don’t be surprised that after Omega’s hand is raised and he is named the contender, he is the one who takes it off “whoever the hell is the champion at the end of the pay-per-view.” So Omega is rather confident. Omega dares AEW to throw whoever they have at him. He doesn’t care if they’re a singles wrestler or a tag team guy like Hangman. It could even be a cowboy like Hangman, Omega doesn’t care. It rolls right off his shoulder. Omega is going to be the winner and the champion he was destined to be since day one, Hangman or not. For not caring about him, Omega sure seems obsessed with Hangman being in this tournament now. Is Omega… worried?
Big Swole VS Serena Deeb!
Swole made her in-ring return on Dark, but now she’s back on Dynamite to make her return even more explosive! Will Swole get on a roll towards the AEW Women’s World Championship?
The bell rings and Deeb circles with Swole. They tie up, go around and Deeb gets the arm. Deeb wrenches, Swole slips through and wrenches back. Deeb rolls, spins and wrenches back to wrangle Swole down. Fans cheer the exchange as Swole gets up. Deeb headlocks, hits a takeover but Swole headscissors. Deeb pops out and fans cheer as the two stand off. The two go again as fans rally up. Deeb and Swole tie up with knuckle locks and have a test of strength. Swole powers Deeb down fast and gets the shoulders, Deeb gets up at ONE and reels Swole in to a sunset flip, ONE! Swole is up but Deeb wrenches an arm, only for Swole to wrench back. Swole spins Deeb around, hammerlocks both arms then CLUBS her! Swole half straitjackets Deeb to throw forearms and hit a backbreaker!
Swole brings Deeb back up, throws forearms and then whips Deeb to a corner. Swole runs to the side but Deeb comes back with a LARIAT! Swole goes to the apron, Deeb drags her back up and through the ropes, DRAGON SCREW! Swole goes down hard and Deeb goes after her again. Deeb brings Swole through the ropes for a neckbreaker hotshot! Swole sputters as AEW goes picture in picture.
Deeb drags Swole back in to drop down on the leg with elbows. Deeb keeps on the legs for an Indian Deathlock! Deeb also gets the arms for a surfboard cradle, TWO! Swole escapes and works to get her bad leg moving. Deeb drags her up first and wrenches the arm to an elbow breaker! Deeb trips Swole and uses the knuckle lock cover, ONE as Swole gets an arm up. Deeb brings Swole up to drop down, roll and keylock Swole back down! Cover, TWO! Deeb SLAMS the other arm then covers, TWO! Deeb grows frustrated and Swole hits back with body shots!

AEW returns and Swole is still down, clutching her back. Deeb drags Swole up, whips her to a corner, but Swole stops herself, only to collide with Deeb! They both go down but fans rally up. A standing count begins and Swole rises at 4. Deeb stands, too, but runs into Swole’s elbows and clothesline! Swole rallies, throws forearms, but Deeb ducks the roundhouse! Deeb swings, Swole ducks and HEADBUTTS! Cover, TWO!! Deeb still lives but Swole is right after her! Swole whips Deeb to a corner, runs in but is put on the apron.

Winner: Big Swole, by pinfall
The #2 contender wants to be #1, and the best way to do that is to keep winning! Will Swole climb the ranks and have her shot at the champion?
AEW hears from Jon Moxley.
“October 14th marks one year of AEW Dynamite on TNT, but I will not be celebrating.” He hasn’t had much time to celebrate this year, “because for every monster, for every hungry young kid, for every legend I take out, there’s another one waiting around the corner, and that’s the life of a world champion.” Moxley has been in the game long enough to know that eventually, everyone’s number will be called. Eventually, someone is going to take Moxley out. That could be Archer, and that could be October 14th. “One does not simply beat Lance Archer. One survives Lance Archer.” Moxley knows from experience. He barely left Tokyo with his teeth in his mouth and his head on his shoulders. Now the chicken has come home to roost and tracked Moxley halfway around the world to do it.
Like a samurai, Moxley meditates daily on his own demise, “being ripped apart by swords and arrows.” Every time Moxley hands the belt to a referee, he may not get it back. But what happens on October 14th, Archer? Maybe he wins, maybe Moxley does. Moxley has a lot of regrets in his life, but laying down for Archer is not going to be one of them. He will leave it all in the ring, and Archer will have to unstrap the belt from his dead body! Maybe Archer does. But it’s like Archer says: Everybody dies.
Another round of friends and fans congratulating Jericho!
Lance Storm wishes Jericho a happy anniversary! Thirty years of friendship, and he couldn’t be happier. Long live Le Champion! Kevin Smith wants to crack open a bit o’ the bubbly for Jericho!

The Beatles were only together for 7 years, so Jericho’s basically 4.5 times better or something. Gabriel Iglesias has Chavo Guerrero Jr. on video call as part of his own video call! Chavo says hey to Jericho, and says that these 30 years felt a lot longer, because practically every time he turned the TV on, Jericho was on it! And Steel Panther wishes Jericho a happy 30th anniversary and congratulates him for wrestling his ass off the entire time! Wait, Jericho’s a wrestler?
Ultimo Dragon says congratulations Jericho for 30 years in the industry! It’s an incredible accomplishment! Paul Stanley also congratulates Jericho for his 30 years. Getting to the top is one thing, but staying there is truly incredible.
The Inner Circle VS Chaos Project!
Thirty years in the making. That is the tagline to this entire night, but especially this match! Chris Jericho and Luther have known each other for 30 years, as both allies and enemies, friends and foes! But will the Original Death Dealer and his new pal in Serpentico put the hurting on Le Champion and Big Hurt, Jake Hager? Or will the Demo God be able to celebrate his 30th anniversary with a victory?
AEW returns and Jericho makes his entrance, the rest of the Inner Circle with him. Everyone enjoys singing along with Judas before the match begins. Jericho starts with Serpentico and they tie up. Jericho wrenches to a wristlock, Serpentico rolls and handsprings to wrench, but Jericho throws a forearm! Jericho CHOPS Serpentico, whips him but Serpentico dodges and tilt-o-whirl headscissors! Serpentico fixes his head and hits a forearm in the corner! He whips but Jericho reverses only to run into a boot. Serpentico hits another headscissors but Jericho CLOBBERS him! Fans fire up as Luther tags in! Luther and Jericho meet again after all this time and tie up. Jericho CHOPS, Luther CHOPS, repeat! It’s a CHOP fight! Luther CHOPS then runs, but into a shove, only for Luther to BOOT Jerihco down!

LIONSAULT! He’s still got it! Tag to Hager and Hager throws haymakers! Luther hits back and the two brawl, but Hager gets the edge. Hager runs, rams Luther, but Luther stays up! Both men roar, and start throwing hands again! Hager rams Luther into the corner and rams his shoulders in more, but the ref backs him off. Luther boots Hager away, but runs into a BELLY2BELLY! Hager hobbles, comes back to put Luther in a drop zone and climbs up. HAGER BOMB onto boots!

Luther turns around into JUDAS EFFECT!! Cover, Jericho and Hager win!
Winners: Chris Jericho & Jake Hager, by pinfall
The Inner Circle definitely won this match, because they all had a part to play! Jericho gets a mic to say, “Hey, listen. Thirty years in this business, thanks to all of you. And I just want to say from-” But wait, MJF is here! He said he’d maybe be here in person to congratulate Jericho, but he doesn’t want his music playing. This isn’t about him, it’s about Jericho. Wardlow is wheeling out something big and MJF says he isn’t here to step on toes or steal spotlight. MJF is here because he respects Jericho. It’s true! Wait, the thing under the curtain is a person and they get in the ring with Wardlow and MJF. MJF says he wants to be part of the celebration of Le Champion! And it’s about time for the conversation to end, it’s gift o’clock and MJF is ready to rock.
Count down! FIVE! FOUR! THREE! TWO! ONE! And it’s… Clownicho! Don’t you get it? Well hold on, there’s another present wrapped up. MJF is really thoughtful, so y’know. Jericho takes the present for himself, but before he opens it, MJF wants Jericho to indulge him. MJF promises Sammy that jacket is in the mail. Also, MJF wants to let Jericho know he inspires him. Next week, MJF makes a career defining announcement and he wants Jericho out there with him. But first, the present! A picture of MJF. Is that not amazing? Yes, it’s really great. And Jericho SMASHES it on the clown’s head! As in, Clownicho. And he gives the clown a JUDAS EFFECT! MJF doesn’t understand.
Jericho explains “I hate clowns, and don’t every interrupt me again. You understand me?” Both men stare down, but then they laugh. Jericho had him! Jericho thanks the fans and wishes them a good night! The AEW roster comes out to genuinely celebrate with a genuinely remarkable man. Credits roll? Executive Producer: Chris Jericho. Directed by: Chris Jericho. Jericho, Jericho, Jericho. Catering, too? But all that aside, yes! Happy 30th Anniversary, Y2J!
My Thoughts:
What a great episode, though they didn’t go all that much harder just because it was Jericho’s 30th anniversary. It was great to have all those shout-outs from celebrities and fellow wrestlers, but obviously we all know this could’ve been an even greater episode if there could’ve been a video tribute using footage from his whole career, including the WWE and WWE properties. I’m at least surprised there also wasn’t a party moment, but they had to get to everything else planned for this episode. The FTW Championship was great but I feel like it only scratched the surface of what Cage and Hobbs can do. Darby interrupts things after, but I almost thought Hobbs was going to attack him to take Option A. Maybe not, though, because Hobbs is doing great as a Face and we are still owed some part of the Archer & Team Taz VS Moxley, Hobbs & Darby match.
The Brush with Greatness was, well, also great. The time limit still isn’t as much of a factor other than the pacing, but what a great showing from TH2. Of course FTR wins because they still need to face Best Friends and Young Bucks. I feel like FTR VS Best Friends not having the time limit is actually a shame. The whole point of the Brush with Greatness having a time limit is that it’s supposed to save FTR’s asses from almost losing! Otherwise, why even make it a big deal? I’m pretty sure FTR wins because we still need FTR VS Bucks, and that probably happens at Full Gear. The AEW World Championship #1 contender’s tournament is already turning out how I was hoping, with Hangman named as an entrant and Omega being weirdly anxious about it. It almost doesn’t matter who the other two names are in this field of eight, this MUST end on Omega VS Hangman at the finals.
The Dog Collar Match was BRUTAL, and definitely in a good way! Though, they sure love blood. Three people bleeding, with Silver starting it and he wasn’t even really in the match. Though, kudos to him taking those spots to be the hapless lackey. I really thought Brodie was going to win, but it’s Cody. Cody peels back some kayfabe for us by showing he isn’t going to be Heel Cody or even dark, brooding Cody just because of the new look he came up with (which makes you wonder why he went that way in the first place) but again that’s Cody. But Cody VS Orange Cassidy for the Dynamite Anniversary is going to be incredible, and how amazing would it be for Cody to put Orange over? If anyone in the trio of Cassidy and Best Friends is getting a title next week, it’s Cassidy.
Swole and Deeb had a really good match and it was a really good win for Swole. I feel like the Dynamite Anniversary should try and surprise us with something for the women’s division, as it isn’t clear who is heading to Full Gear to face Hikaru Shida yet. Moxley and Archer had great vignette promos, and of course they referenced the NJPW match for the IWGP United States Championship that Moxley still has. Their match is going to be awesome, but as great as Archer is, I don’t think he beats Moxley. As I said for AEW Dark last night, I feel like what Eddie Kingston was saying implies he and Moxley will have a rematch in an I Quit match. Full Gear had the brutal Unsanctioned match last year, why not make a tradition out of that with Moxley VS Kingston, I Quit Match for the title?
And of course, closing with Jericho in the main event was the proper way to do this. Chaos Project gave Inner Circle a really good match, even in losing. Luther definitely went above and beyond compared to what he’s been doing in the ring, and looked very strong since all of the Inner Circle got involved one way or another. I feel like they had to rush things with MJF, but it’s fine because that was an appropriately awkward and dumb gift. I have a feeling that between last week’s “forgotten jacket” and the things MJF said tonight, replacing Sammy is the red herring. MJF is going to swerve us and create his own parody of the Inner Circle. He mentioned Jericho “inspiring” him, and even telling him “don’t be afraid to pick and take” from role models. MJF is going to copy Jericho and create a group, though he could’ve just kept his campaign team with him. Maybe some of the bigger names seen on AEW Dark join Team MJF to get some Dynamite time.
My Score: 9.1/10

The fans fire up as Ospreay takes aim, and he HOMERS Kyle in the gut! And then on the back!! And then Ospreay DIGS the wire into Kyle’s forehead!! The fans are thunderous for the savagery! Ospreay then takes aim, and says “BANG BANG!” a la Cactus Jack! Kyle says please don’t, but Ospreay says Kyle’s begging for mercy a little late.

Ospreay kicks him away, then uses the cage, SUPER DUPER OSCUTTER!!! Cover, TWO!?!?!? HOW?!?! Callis can breathe again, the fans lose their minds, and Ospreay crawls to “Barbie.” Ospreay takes that wire and wraps it around his elbow?!
Kyle tries to escape, but climbing doesn’t end this! Ospreay gets Kyle, almost pulls his trunks off, but Kyle found THE SCREWDRIVER! Kyle JABS it into Ospreay’s face!! Kyle licks the screwdriver, Callis plays innocent, but then Ospreay storms up. Kyle JABS Ospreay’s side! And then his back! Ospreay is in the corner, Kyle runs up, the screwdriver gets stuck in buckle pad! Roll up, deadlift, and STYLES- NO, Kyle UP KICKS! Cradle, roll through, BRAINBUSTER!! Kyle sits a chair up, he brings Ospreay over, FULL METAL BRAINBUSTER!!! Kyle crawls to cover, TWO?!?!?! How is Ospreay doing this?!?!
Kyle himself is furious, but the fans are thunderous! Kyle goes back to the bag, and he brings out a black bag! Kyle dumps that bag out, and yes, it is THUMBTACKS!! Kyle goes back to Ospreay, reels him in, and suplexes, but Ospreay blocks! Kyle fires more Kawada Kicks, then suplexes! Ospreay RANAS free, then high stacks, to deadlift! STYLES CLASH onto the tacks!!! All those tacks go into Kyle’s gut and groin! Cover, TWO?!?!? Kyle survives, but that only makes things hurt worse! The fans are losing their minds all over again, but Ospreay underhooks! STORM- NO, Kyle climbs the cage! Ospreay pursues, and he has the screwdriver?!?
Ospreay has it in his mouth like a pirate with a knife climbing the mast! Ospreay and Kyle fight over the screwdriver, fans chant, “Please Don’t Die!” Kyle and Ospreay trade headbutts, but Ospreay has the screwdriver! And he JABS Kyle in the head!! Then Ospreay looks down at the ring. The fans are going nuts already as Ospreay is bringing Kyle around to the inside. Callis is freaking out, too, as we get an ULTIMATE SPANISH FLY!!!! Both men are down and LA is erupting! Ospreay rises, and he throws off his elbow pad! Kyle sits up and shouts, “I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!! I EFFIN HATE YOU!! I HATE YOU, YOU SON OF A-” HIDDEN BLADE!!!
Ospreay underhooks, for a STORM DRIVER!!!! Cover, OSPREAY WINS!!
Winner: Will Ospreay, by pinfall
Callis is absolutely stunned. Not only did both of his guys lose tonight, but this could’ve cost Kyle so much more than just a win. Ospreay looms over Kyle for just a moment before he hobbles away. Is this the end of the grudge? Can Ospreay finally move on from his past and head for a brighter future?
Schiavone interviews Ash Avildsen at ringside.
Schiavone asks Ash and the Queen of the Ring cast how they felt about that match from Toni. Ash says that was definitely an incredible Hollywood Ending. Give it up to the entire cast, Damaris Lewis & Kelli Burgland! Ash is grateful for the reviews, but he also wants to give the ladies what pro-wrestling has meant to them. Damaris says y’all know you’re gonna win before anyone else does. And Kelli says their move is for wrestling fans. They deserved a movie like this on the big screen, and it was an honor to play the women who laid the foundation for wrestling today. See it while you can!

Winner: Jon Moxley, by submission (still AEW World Champion)
The Maniac’s reign of terror was never closer to ending than right here tonight, if not for Captain Charisma making himself a part of it. Christian ends up Moxley’s sacrifice for the greater good, whether anyone likes it or not. But wait, Prince Nana finds Moxley and tells him guess who’s coming. Security rushes over to keep things from getting physical, but wait! UP ON THE LEDGE! Swerve is perched like a hawk, and he DIVES in!! Swerve wipes out Moxley and all of security! The fans are thunderous for “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” Will the Realest, the Most Dangerous Man in AEW, prove he’s also the rightful AEW World Champion?
My Thoughts:
A great Revolution, and would’ve been awesome if they just rethought some of that main event. For one, the match was more of a grind out than anything. I suppose after how hot everything else tonight was, that couldn’t be helped. And it was disappointing that Yuta just chose to stick with Moxley, but it did give White his reason for coming out. I honestly would’ve taken White costing Cope with that briefcase mishap than what we got. Because while I was glad they did have Christian Cage attempt his cash-in, they did that wrong. Making this a Triple Threat just so Christian can lose when he was not beat up at all, that’s garbage.
Granted, whatever Heel was going to be champion, whether Christian or Moxley, the fans can now all rally behind Swerve without question. Swerve VS Ricochet was a great match to not just name a contender but to get the Embassy Robe back. Swerve is back on the rise, we will see him continue the fight against the Death Riders that Cope and others did, and I could imagine a part of the story being Swerve learning to work with unlikely allies like Cope, Jay White, maybe even Will Ospreay or a returning Darby Allin. Team ups like that were all teased before they wrote Darby Allin off TV, so it’d be fitting that he returns as the catalyst for an AEW Avengers moment.
Hangman Page could also find himself in that mix, as he’ll want the world title again at some point. Hangman VS MJF was an awesome opener, and surprisingly stiff at some points. But Hangman getting the win was the right move, as it proves Hangman is the anti-hero the fans are right to support over MJF. The Zero Hour matches were also great, for the most part. It makes sense the Faces won their matches, but it’s a bummer that Gravity was only given a title match as an excuse to get The Learning Tree to beat him and Bandido up in front of a bigger audience than ROH on Honor Club.
Hobbs not rescuing them and helping thwart the Don Callis Family was rather odd. At the same time, this is Hobbs getting back to a story with the Don Callis Family so that he can get his revenge on them like we saw Omega and Ospreay do tonight. Which is surprising that both of those things happened, but maybe that’s a blowoff for them with the Don Callis Family. Omega becoming a Grand Slam Champion in AEW is great stuff, and very deserved. Not because Omega helped found AEW but because he is that good, and he overcame some serious stuff in his life.
Okada VS Brody was very good stuff, but I figured Okada would win that. Same goes for Mone VS Momo, with Mone retaining in a great match. Billie watching and taking notes was a nice background detail, and I am sure she’ll step up next with Dynasty in only a month. At the same time, it’d be interesting if there was some shirt in the relationship between Billie and Athena where Athena wants the match with Mone come All In: Texas. And if they go with what I was thinking, it could be for all the belts, or at least both the AEW TBS and ROH Women’s titles so that one way or another, the status of ROH is elevated by whoever is the winner.
It was also clear The Outrunners were losing, but the start was a bit clunky. And why is The Cru watching ringside? Like, not to be mean to Lio & Action, but they’re not even beating just Lashley or just Shelton. Maybe instead, The Cru wants to join up with the Hurt Syndicate? Maybe represent them in ROH and get those tag titles from Dustin Rhodes & Sammy Guevara? That’d be a good option to me.
And then the bloodiest matches, the best matches, the ones that should’ve been the real main event, were Toni Storm VS Mariah and Ospreay VS Fletcher. The Hollywood Ending had an awkward plug for The Queen of the Ring that went better in the Zero Hour than it did here, but whatever, celebrities that only just got into wrestling don’t count for much. Toni and Mariah went hard, like they were working to outdo everything Swerve and Hangman did in their rivalry all on one night. The same could be said for Ospreay VS Fletcher, and they went even harder after seeing how hard Toni and Mariah went. Both great wins for the Faces, both Toni and Ospreay are now moving on to new stories, and that will be some great stuff for both of them.
My Score: 9/10

Adam Copeland speaks.
“I make you nervous, Moxley. You don’t like having guys like me around. Guys that have done more than you, been around longer than you, paid more dues than you. It threatens your manhood or something, and it should. Now Mox, you said all I had to do was ask for a fight, and I did, but you dodged me. You hid behind your Death Riders. And then I finally realized, you’re afraid. You’re afraid of losing the AEW World Championship, because with the championship, we all have to sit through your word salad diatribes that just go around in circles. But without it, you’ve got no juice.
“And it’s not too long before your sycophants realized that you’re just a false martyr. You’re just a spin doctor. You’re not a messiah. Well, Death Riders are gone, man. We took ’em out. And Yuta, he finally seems to be doing some soul searching and realized the succubus you are. So here’s what I need. I need the Jon Moxley that set this industry on fire when he first came to AEW, not this coward. I need the Moxley who’s not afraid to go toe to toe with me. I need the Moxley who’s not afraid to get in the trenches, who’s not afraid to suffer. Because you will. And I know I will, too, but I’m a masochist, I get off on it.
“But I’m also not kidding myself. I have been in hundreds of world title matches over the last 32 years, and I know. I know that time is running out. I know that this could be the last time I ever fight for a world title. So I have to make this count. What I’ve got going for me is there’s no expiring on purpose, there’s no expiring on passion, there’s no expiring on grit, I’ve got all of those in spades, Moxley. So here it is, man. Cope VS Mox, one on one for the first time ever, for the AEW World Championship at Revolution! I have to do this. Los Angeles, see you soon.” Cope is ready, but will he make Revolution Rated R?
Mercedes Mone is here!
As promised, The CEO is going to watch her challenger with her own eyes, so she struts down to ringside, holding up the AEW TBS Championship. Will she be impressed, intimidated or neither with The Dark Peach of Stardom?
Momo Watanabe VS Serena Deeb!

Will Ospreay speaks.
The Aerial Assassin finishes being checked by the trainer, and then sets the icepack down. “The pain that I’m feeling right now, the pain I’m feeling physically, does not equate to what I feel mentally right now. The torture that I feel in my brain right now. I feel lost, I feel confused, I feel anxious that I am entering a match physically spent, emotionally spent, entering a match that I’ve never participated in in my entire flippin’ career, against someone I called my flippin’ brother. Tonight on my left arm, I wore my armband that symbolizes the United Empire.
“But as I was packing my bags, I saw that armband in the top corner, and I brought that down, and I wore it on my arm to hope that there’s some little symbol, there’s some little part of you that’s still in there. That band. That band of brotherhood, mate. It’s not just a faction, it’s a band of boys that looked after each other. Me, Kyle Fletcher, Mark Davis, Jeff Cobb, The Great-O-Khan, Henare, Francesco Akira, TJ Perkins, Callum Newman, Gideon Grey. All of us together took over Japan. Young, hungry boys that only cared about each other.
“And one year, mate, one year ago, at Revolution, after I defeated Takeshita, and I saw my best friend, a man that I put in my home, a man that has picked up my son with me… Met me ringside, and I knew we was gonna get the band back together. I knew we was gonna get the boys in and we were gonna take over AEW. But that ain’t the case now. No longer are we taking over AEW as the United Empire. Now, we’re standing in opposite corners, and this time, we are locked inside of a steel cage. And I’m coming into this like a wounded animal, bruv. A wounded animal, locked inside a cage, backed into a corner, I got no choice but to fight!
“I’ve got no choice but to look at my brother, a man that I loved, loved him more than anything in this world, that I would do anything for ya! And instead, I have to fight back. I have to fight with every ounce of energy that is in my body. And know this, Kyle. Know that with every bit of love that I had for you, every knife that you stabbed in my back, I will stab you right back! I will grate up your face across that flippin’ cage! I will end this once and for all! Because my name is Will Ospreay, and I am on! Another! LEVEL!” The Aerial Assassin steels his heart before stepping inside that steel, but will he be able to end The Protostar?

Though she lost at Grand Slam: Australia, this wild Aussie has been getting wins on TV, on the Jericho Cruise, and even named her finishing move… uh, well, Her Finishing Move! But will we continue to #FeelTheWrath? Or is the hot streak going to cool off for the Spring?

Kyle Fletcher speaks.
“The thing that I love most in this entire world is dropping people on their heads. And the only thing that makes it just a little bit better is doing it looking like a million bucks. And the only, only, only thing that makes it just a little bit sweeter is when I get to do it to Will Ospreay. Now, Will, you talk about this Steel Cage Match on Sunday like it’s some stepping stone. Like once it’s out of the way, you can finally make your way to the world championship and face Moxley to save this company. But you could not be more wrong. You are and always have been the one standing in MY way. In the way of me achieving my destiny.
“Now, prophecy says that when this is all down, I will be remembered as the greatest professional wrestler of all time. And Will, I’m sorry, but all your accomplishments, they mean nothing. Because all you’ll be remembered as is Kyle Fletcher’s greatest rival. And now, this band, this band that I ripped off your lifeless body, is supposed to represent a brotherhood? United Empire. But just like the United Empire, this thing is a facade. Because all it is is a way for you to stroke your own ego! And this Sunday, there will be no brothers in your corner. You are being locked in the lion’s den, and this lion has been starved far, far too long.
“I am hungry for revenge! Those fans, they can chant ‘Ospreay! Ospreay!’ all they want, until they are blue in the face, but it means nothing! Because I will paint that ring, that canvas, that steel cage in red with your blood. And I want you to remember all the pain that you have caused me all these years, because I am going to return it this Sunday a thousand fold. And don’t forget that you asked for this. Now say my full name.” Kyle Fletcher is determined to destroy Ospreay, but what will it cost him in return?

The Don Callis Family speaks.
Calils says since he and Konosuke Takeshita have joined forces, “Life is good, brother. Life is very good.” They’re on a ride, and Kenny will not interrupt it. They called Omega the “God of Wrestling,” but there’s a new god! Because he is here, each and every day, defending the AEW International title while Kenny Omega, God bless him, no ill will here, sits in a hospital bed with tubes coming out of his stomach! How long until those guts explode? And at Revolution, that will be the last match, the last time, that the wrestling world sees Kenny Omega! Because “they” won’t just beat Omega a third time, they will END him!
AEW hears from Bandido & Gravity.
After the ambush beatdown by The Learning Tree last Thursday on ROH, The Most Wanted tells them that while he doesn’t know their problem with him and his brother, just know that they won’t get away acting like cowards! Fight them like men! Gravity tells Jericho, if you want to finish things with him and his brother, meet him at Revolution! Bandido asks if Gravity is sure about that. Si, carnal! Gravity wants Jericho 1v1 at Revolution, for the ROH World Championship!! The Space Cowboys are ready to ride into the City of Angels, but can Gravity bring down The Nueve?
Jon Moxley speaks.
“Adam Copeland and I are so different. We are not the same animal. We are barely the same species. But it’s funny how much we do have in common. Copeland came up the hard way. Poverty, starvation, drives across frozen lakes. We’re the last of a dying breed, you and I. On the road every single night, busting your ass through injuries. Through every obstacle they want to throw in your path. Chasing a dream, this fantasy. You can’t see, but you can feel it in your heart, you can almost feel it on your fingertips. The dream is to one day wrap that gold around your waist, feel that gold in your hands, to be world champion.
“That’s what drives you, man. That passion, that drive, every single night. You’d sacrifice it all for one more chance to play the game. Once you get there, man, you don’t wanna give it up for anything. That’s what this is about. Respect, hmm? I want to respect Adam Copeland, I want to like Adam Copeland, I really do. And I really tried. But, I just don’t get what you’re about, man. And when I get my hands around your busted neck, and I will, should I show you mercy? Would you show me mercy? Did you show my people mercy?
“When you hear the sound of your spinal column busting and cracking and popping and breaking, and you hear that sound reverberating in your skull and your eardrums…! You will feel what respect feels like.” The Maniac has said his piece, but will there be any piece of either man left after tomorrow night?

FTR meets with Daniel Garcia and The Undisputed Kingdom.
Cash Wheeler tells the group that they asked them all here because after last week, that wasn’t FTR’s best presentation. After Dynamite last week, then losing to them on Collision in a match they should’ve won, emotions ran high, that’s their bad. FTR is more professional that that. Dax Harwood says not him. He doesn’t apologize for not shaking hands. The only thing he apologizes for is stooging himself off to the referee. Kyle & Roddy were in the ring with the absolute best team last week, and the absolute best team should’ve won last week. Roddy asks “KYLE~!” if he hears this. Because Roddy’s pretty sure the best tag team did win last week.
Kyle says too true. But Kyle says one way or another, that victory was tainted. So to do the right thing, they’ll run it back. FTR agrees, the rematch is set for next week’s Collision! FTR heads out, as do Kyle & Roddy, but Adam Cole wants to talk with Garcia. Cole knows Garcia knows that Cole deserves his own rematch given what Shane Taylor Promotions did. But after tonight, we’ll just have to see if Garcia’s still TNT Champion. Garcia says that’s cute. But we will see. As much as Garcia wants to continue this conversation, he has to go defend his title. Cole says go get ’em, champ. Garcia heads out, will he still be the Face of TNT?
Backstage interview with The Hurt Syndicate.
Lexy Nair is with Montel Vontavious Porter, Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin and notes that their AEW World Tag Team Championship match for Revolution is set against The Outrunners. Turbo Floyd & Truth Magnum have been training hard, and they have a match tonight against The Premier Athletes, hoping to win and build momentum. With that said- MVP cuts Lexy off to say, “With that being said, let me say this. The Outrunners are so entertaining. They make you feel good, they make you feel happy, they make you laugh. They’re entertaining. But we’re about a different kind of entertainment
“We like violent, savage entertainment. Blood, pain. We don’t wanna make you laugh, we wanna make you cringe, we wanna make you gasp. The Outrunners are the underdogs. And that’s why most of you pathetic people that watch this, you identify with underdogs because in life, you are an underdog. But Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin have never been underdogs. They’ve only ever been the top dogs. And what they are going to do to your underdogs is they are going to make them suffer. They are going to hurt them, badly. And you know what you do to a dog when it’s suffering? You put it down. We’re the Hurt Syndicate, and we hurt people.”
The Syndicate heads out, but will it be so easy to kill the Youngest Men Alive?
The Outrunners VS The Premier Athletes!
Speaking of, Truth & Turbo are flexing and feeling good! But Mark Sterling gives the introductions for Tony Nese & Ariya Daivari. Everyone knows the Premier Athletes should be the team fighting for the tag titles this Sunday, “not these idiots!” But tonight, the Premier Athletes are giving “the thugs” of Sacramento a chance to be on their team. So when Sterling says, “Athletes,” you all say, “Rule!” Nothing else! Hands in, boys. Ohh…! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Got ’em again! Will Smart Mark ever learn?

Collision returns, fans chant “ATHLETES SUCK! ATHLETES SUCK!” but Nese grinds Truth down with a chinlock. Truth fights up, fires body shots, but Nese keeps him from his corner! The fans rally as Truth and Turbo reach for each other, but Nese drags Truth away! Daivari tags in, Nese puts Truth in the corner to ROCK him! Truth ROCKS Daivari, too! Nese throat chops Truth! Then HOTSHOT BULLDOGS him down! Daivari is up top, DIVING SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Daivari is furious but he drags Truth up with chicken wings. Tag to Nese and Nese climbs, but Truth switches!

Who will have it all with their Hollywood Ending?
AEW hears from The Don Callis Family and… #MXMTV?
Johnny TV says, “The enemies of our enemies are our friends. That means we’re friends.” Brian Cage isn’t so sure about that, Johnny. But as long as Johnny is paying Callis, the Murder Machines don’t mind helping out. Okay, good enough. But speaking of those enemies, Mark Briscoe says it has been too long since he and Orange Cassidy conglomerated. The time has come, he and the Main Man with the Game Plan are gonna conglomerate with Big Boom AJ! Revolution, baby! Mansoor says if the other side is “The Conglomeration,” then guess what? This is the Cooperation! And together, they will DESTROY AJ, Briscoe, Cassidy and more!
Briscoe says, “We’re gonna bring the…” Cassidy says, “Boom.” RAH RAH RAH! The Sussex County Chicken & Freshly Squeezed are ready, but will the MXM Cooperation bring the DOOM?

Kenny Omega speaks.
“Takeshita, I’ll give you credit. You used me to get everything that you wanted. All of the questions that you had, I gave you every single answer that I could because I wanted to see the best for you. 2021 seems like a lifetime ago, but I still remember it very clearly. I still remember you being in this house, I still remember working out with you, I still remember watching tape, giving you advice. And I still remember you absorbing everything like a sponge, with your hands out, ‘Please, Kenny. Give me something that takes me to the next level.’ And then when I gave it to you, it still wasn’t enough. And I know that you think that Don can take you to the top of the mountain…
“Don himself thinks that you are the ultimate meal ticket. That you’ll be the one to shower him with the riches, shower him with all the gold, take him to the next step. But then what happens when you don’t? What happens after Revolution when I take your title away? Will you be thrown aside just the way that I was? Will you be thrown aside in the same way that Will Ospreay was? You see, the difference between you and Will Ospreay, Takeshita, is that Will opened his eyes. You’re still living in this fantasy world that Momsy, Dadsy, or Uncle Don is going to make something work magically, pull something out of thin air.
“And why is that? Because you’re afraid to go take it yourself? Well, I’m telling you right now, when it’s a singles match between us at Revolution, there is your chance. There is your chance, one on one, without Don, without any help, to beat me man to man. Show everyone that you’re willing to take that top spot. Show everyone that you are one of the best on the planet. At Revolution, Takeshita, you’re not facing the same guy that you had beaten twice in one week, Who you are facing is the guy that Don Callis himself used to call, ‘The God of Professional Wrestling.’ Do you really think you can beat this version of Kenny Omega?
“I guess tomorrow, we’re gonna find out. Until Revolution, I must bid you adieu. Goodbye, Takeshita, mwah. And goodnight, BANG!” The Cleaner has put Takeshita on notice, but will he still be The Best Bout Machine?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision, but wow, was this some go-home syndrome. All the promos and recaps were well done, such as Kenny right there at the end, but we got so many of them when honestly, Kenny’s was a touch redundant. He had one on Dynamite, why not use this one back then? Speaking of redundant, Cope and Moxley had promos again. Cope saying Moxley talks in circles doesn’t do much when Cope barely said anything new other than, “I have to win.” I’ve been saying this a lot already, but this is all learning towards Christian Cage cashing in his Casino Gauntlet contract to really throw things for a loop.
I did appreciate what we got of the “Mariah attacks Toni” that happened on Friday, that is a clever way to add to a build. Good promo from Bandido & Gravity to respond to what happened on ROH, and Jericho VS Gravity will be a great match, but I don’t see Jericho losing given the title is on the line. And I also did appreciate Ospreay and Kyle at least adding some new twists. Ospreay has a point that the United Empire could’ve been a thing in AEW, and Kyle bringing up how Ospreay was meant to get in on the Death Riders story was also a nice touch. The cage match could really go either way, and I suppose much of it depends on where the world title’s story is going.
The Opps winning a squash match but then getting nothing else was odd. I mean, good win for The Opps, but I guess with The Death Riders falling apart and also kayfabe hospitalized, there couldn’t be a challenge set for the trios titles here. Very good win for Harley with Tatevik also coming out the gate strong. Momo VS Deeb was really good, and Mone was good on commentary. Them teasing Billie hanging around continues to be interesting. It’d be rather interesting if Billie were to bypass another shot at the ROH Women’s World Championship to then go after and most likely lose to Mone for the TBS Championship. Because as I’ve said before, Mone is certainly retaining against Momo.
Awesome match from Hologram and Dralistico, and another great win for Hologram. LFI going after him and then beating up Komander was good stuff, and I would think Hologram & Komander VS Dralistico & Mortos is a tag match we get before Rush VS Hologram 1v1. Good promo from The Hurt Syndicate ahead of The Outrunners having their match. It was a natural move for Hurt Syndicate to go out there in hopes of distracting, but I like that it didn’t cost The Outrunners. Great win for The Outrunners tonight, but they’re definitely losing at Revolution.
We got quite the promo from The Conglomeration and the “Cooperation.” There’s no change to the match, but I suppose this means Lance Archer, Brian Cage & Mark Davis will be ringside to watch and possibly stack the odds against Big Boom AJ’s team. I would think the Faces still win but maybe it’ll be from The Don Callis Family ditching MXM TV. FTR had a decent promo with Garcia and the Undisputed Kingdom. FTR having a split attitude on how their match with Kyle & Roddy went is interesting, but at least we’re getting a rematch. That’ll be some good stuff, and might unofficially make the winners the next tag title contenders.
An awesome TNT title match for the main event, but being it was Collision, I figured Garcia would retain. Setting up an 8 Man Tag for Revolution’s Zero Hour is something, and I could see some “dysfunction” between Garcia and Cole could set up their TNT Championship rematch. And with that rematch, I feel like Cole should win. There’s a good chance he’ll have the TNT title while Kyle & Roddy face Lashley & Shelton for the tag titles. Golden Prophecy: All Elite Edition is certainly to happen in 2025.
My Score: 8.9/10
