Roman Reigns opens SmackDown!
The Big Dog didn’t just #ShowUp&Win at Clash of Champions, he manhandled, mugged and all around bullied his own blood relative, Jey Uso, just to hold onto the WWE Universal Championship. He and “executive counsel,” Paul Heyman, head to the ring as the fans boo and give thumbs down on their ThunderDome screens. Heyman grabs the mic to say, “You’re gonna have to forgive me this evening. I’m a little bit nervous. I have known this man and his entire family since the day that he was born. And I always looked forward to this actual moment, because we all knew this was destined to happen.” Tonight, we are all here to “officially declare Roman Reigns as the Tribal Chief.” And not just of his own family, the Anoa’i, or of just Friday Night SmackDown or even the WWE. He is the Tribal Chief of the entire WWE Universe. That is why it is necessary Roman is your Universal Champion.
Let’s set the stage appropriately and with respect. “From the high paramount Samoan chief, Peter Maivia, to Roman’s uncle Afa, to Roman’s father, Sika…” Roman asks for the mic and Heyman gives it. Roman doesn’t want Heyman to call him that. Heyman doesn’t need to acknowledge him, because he didn’t. His brother did, but he did not. In fact, he needs to come out here. Roman asks Jey Uso to come out to the ring. Jey Uso does head to the ring, a bandage on his head showing what Roman was willing to do to him. Jey has a mic as he stares Roman down. “I don’t know you.” Is this his cousin? His blood? His family?
At Clash, Roman showed his true colors. Jey did, too. Roman beat Jey’s ass, but he didn’t break his spirit. Jey was ready to go to war, and if Jimmy didn’t throw in the towel, the title would be Jey’s. Roman seems almost confused by this. “You think I’m proud of what I did? Clash of Champions, that was the worst night of my career.” Professionally and personally, it was the worst night of Roman’s life. Did Jey think Roman intended to do that? Roman was doing Jey a favor. Roman just wanted to put Jey in the main event, put his name on the marquee! Roman was giving Jey the big payday and helping him do stuff for his wife and kids. Roman loves Jey even more than Jimmy does. The Usos say Day One, that applies to Roman, too. Roman was just trying to raise Jey up.
All Jey had to do was acknowledge him. All he had to do was say the words and accept Roman as the chief. This has been Roman’s birthright, but he still earned it and Jey saw it the whole way! All Roman wanted was to represent the family to the fullest, and share the main event with Jey. And what did Jey do? Disrespected Roman. Embarrassed Roman. Embarrassed the family! And he broke Roman’s heart. Even now as Roman is speaking, Jey is looking at the title! Is it that important to Jey? Is it all he wants? Does he want another shot? Is that it? Then fine, Jey has another shot. At Hell in a Cell, if Jey wants it. But Roman is telling Jey now, “this match will have the highest stakes that any match has ever had in WWE history.”
Roman hugs Jey and tells him he still loves Jey. If it was anyone else. Roman would do it. But this time, there will be consequences. Roman drops the mic and leaves, but what does he mean by all that? Jey speaks up to say, “Uce! Yo! Whatever the stakes are, you’re on, Uce!” Roman smirks and chuckles but he continues to walk away. Has Jey just stepped into a trap at Hell in a Cell?
But wait, AJ Styles heads to the ring! He mockingly asks, “Is the luau over?” Styles missed it, huh? C’mon, does it matter who sits at the head of the table and who has the most chicken bones? No. But what does matter, Jey, believe it or not, is Jey! Jey matters to Styles, yeah! Styles doesn’t want Jey to take another beating like he did last Sunday, so how about letting someone more qualified go after the Universal Championship? Styles says Roman can be the chief. Sacrifice a goat or something if you have to! Just go on living, because “we all know your older brother is the better athlete.” Jey can stay the “runt” like he’s always been. Jey tackles Styles!
Jey is firing off all his frustrations on Styles, goes out to LEAP off the announce desk to hit Styles down!! Jey is fired up, will he get to fire off more after the break?
AJ Styles VS Jey Uso!
SmackDown returns and this match is happening! Will the Phenomenal One back up all his talk and prove Jey isn’t ready? Or will Styles be put in the Uso Penitentiary?
The bell rings, Styles says the truth hurts, “ya runt!” Jey runs at him again but Styles fires off first! Styles talks more trash, Jey keeps running at him but Styles kicks him hard and clubs him down! Styles CHOPS Jey in the corner, whips him corner to corner, but Jey slides and stops to uppercut! Jey scoops and slams Styles down, then runs to leaping headbutt! Styles gets to a corner, Jey runs in but only gets buckles! Styles snapmares Jey and KICKS him! And then boots him down And drops a knee! Styles covers, TWO! Styles keeps his cool as he stalks Jey to ropes. Styles chokes Jey on the ropes, the ref counts, Styles lets off. Styles drags Jey around and gets the legs, ROPE GUILLOTINE!
Jey gasps and sputters, Styles drags him up but Jey jawbreakers back! Styles fires off the Phenomenal Blitz, drags Jey back up and in, but Jey flapjacks out of the Styles Clash! Styles hobbles up, Jey clotheslines him over and out! Jey fires up, builds up speed, but Styles KICKS him back! Styles drags Jey off the ropes for a suplex to the DESK! Jey tumbles to the floor as SmackDown goes to break!
SmackDown returns and Jey throws body shots on Styles. Jey runs but into a kitchen sink knee, that he makes into a roll up! TWO, styles scoops and hits Jey with a BACKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Jey survives but Styles looms over him. Styles stomps Jey around, drags Jey up and snapmares him to put on a chinlock. Styles digs a knee into Jey but Jey endures.

Jey resists the Styles Clash, tries to Alabama lift, and he puts Styles on the apron! Jey kicks, Styles blocks but Jey DRAGON WHIPS! Styles staggers around, Jey builds speed and DIVES! Direct hit at the ramp! Fans clap more as Jey brings Styles up and puts him in the ring. Jey climbs, leaps, USOS SPLASH onto knees! Styles has evened things and both men are down. Styles crawls to the apron, prepares the elbow pad and springboards, into a SUPERKICK! Styles is stuck on ropes, Jey hits another SUPERKICK! Jey fires up, and SUPERKICKS again!
Styles is in the drop zone and Jey goes up top! USO SPLASH!! Cover, Jey wins!!
Winner: Jey Uso, by pinfall
Jey Uso just pinned a former WWE World, United States and Intercontinental Champion in AJ Styles! If this doesn’t prove Jey is ready, nothing will! Will Jey prove he’s right about Clash of Champions when he steps into Hell in a Cell?
Sami Zayn speaks.
“I know you’re expecting me to gloat. Gloat about winning one of the greatest Ladder matches in WWE history. Gloat about being the undisputed Intercontinental Champion. Gloating about the world seeing my genius on full display.” But to be honest, tonight isn’t about Sami. It’s been a whirlwind of emotions tonight, and one of the emotions is resentment. Because thinking about the risks Sami had to take just to defend what was always his, he wanted to take his anger to management. But the real ones to blame are the fans! No one said a word when he was wrongly stripped! And instead, there was a tournament to crown a FRAUD champion, and the fans all went with it!
When Styles won the FRAUD championship, you swallowed what you were given! When Hardy beat Styles for it, you again accepted it at face values. And surprise, surprise, it is on The Great Liberator, the only one with principles here, to do what the others should’ve done all along. Sami throws away the other title into the trash, just like Hardy’s championship dreams will be after tonight. Clunk, the belt is in the can. But will Hardy just take Sami’s belt in the end?
John Morrison VS Otis Dozovic!
SmackDown returns to the Guru of Greatness heading to the ring to settle things with The Dozer! Miz is taking Otis to court, but will Otis take Morrison to school first?
The bell rings and Otis rushes Morrison. Morrison waistlocks, Otis powers him to a corner but Morrison kicks him away and lounges on the ropes. Otis runs in into a kick, Morrison then slides away. Otis keeps after Morrison but gets another kick! Morrison grins but Otis CLOBBERS him! Otis stands on Morrison with all 333 pounds! Otis drags Morrison up, whips him to ropes and back drops, but Morrison lands on his feet! Morrison runs but gets run over! And again! Otis pops Morrison up for the flapjack! Fans cheer as Otis blocks a kick for an EXPLODER! Otis fires up, runs and corner splashes! Morrison is down and Otis pumps up! Otis caterpillars for the ELBOW! Otis goes up, and VADER BOMBS! Cover, Otis wins!!
Winner: Otis Dozovic, by pinfall
To think a match involving the human wrecking ball would go so fast! But now Otis will focus on his court battle with Miz! Will Otis win just as fast against such a frivolous lawsuit?
Sheamus VS Chad Gable!
This is far from the first time the Celtic Warrior and Shorty G have done battle. But things might be even more vicious than the first time, because Sheamus wants to show Big E he is ready for the Falls Count Anywhere challenge! With the 2020 WWE Draft on top of it all, will he be ready for what could be the Fella’s farewell to Friday Nights?
The bell rings, Sheamus rushes Gable but Gable dodges the Brogue to roll him up! TWO, Sheamus runs ag Gable but gets the POST! Gable GERMAN SUPLEXES Sheamus, bridging cover, TWO! Gable goes up, moonsaults but Sheamus dodges! BROGUE!! Sheamus doesn’t cover, he wants to make Gable pay! ANOTHER BROGUE!! Cover, Sheamus wins!
Winner: Sheamus, by pinfall
Sheamus may have beaten down Shorty G, but it’ll be very different against Big E! When they can go anyway in the ThunderDome, where will the feud end?
Kevin Owens gets his index cards back.
The Prizefighter goes over them to make sure what he wants to ask Alexa Bliss is all there. But he doesn’t see the Firefly Fun House and Fiend taking over the television behind him! Will Kevin regret touching on that… “sensitive” subject?
SmackDown presents the Kevin Owens Show!
The Brand to Brand Invitation allows The KO Show to return, and Kevin welcomes us back! Kevin is pumped to be here, because after the Draft, Kevin might be calling SmackDown home. He jumped at the chance to host this special edition, because there’s someone on SmackDown who Kevin has a LOT of questions for. Kevin might be on Raw but he watches Fridays. The person he’s talking about is his guest, Alexa Bliss! The Five Foot Fury has pyro as she makes her way out to the ring. Alexa takes a seat, Kevin thanks her for accepting his invitation, and says he’s been paying attention. He has so many questions as to what is happening to her. Kevin’s seen this change in her. A shift in attitude and this anger. Kevin is reminded of what he sees in Aleister Black.
Alexa isn’t sure what Kevin means. Kevin wants her to admit she isn’t the same as she was five years ago at the PC. She was happy and cheerful, but that’s not her anymore. “People change, Kevin. You should try it some time.” Doesn’t Kevin want to change and be better? Yes, he does! He’s been trying to! He’s down terrible things, yes, but he’s trying to better himself. But this isn’t about him, this is about her. Kevin needs to understand this… Darkness that has taken over her. If he can understand Alexa’s change, he can understand Aleister’s. Well, people fear what they don’t understand.
But has Kevin ever been around “him?” It’s terrifying yet captivating all at the same time. “Your spine gets so cold when you’re in his presence. When he touches you, your whole body goes numb.” And when he looks you in the eyes, it’s like he sees through you, and you can’t look away. Not that Kevin knows that feeling. This isn’t about Aleister, is it? And Kevin won’t get the answers he needs. It’s like she’s brainwashed. Yes, her brain has been washed. The lies are washed away and she sees the truth. Alexa has been changed, Kevin. Cleansed, even. That smile creeps Kevin out, but he’s here, isn’t he? He’s everywhere. Alexa can hear him now. #LetHimIn! And the lights go out!! The Fiend is here and he has Kevin in the MANDIBLE CLAW!! The Fiend smothers Kevin to the mat!!
The Fiend leaves Kevin sputtering and coughing as he stares into the camera. He looks at Alexa, who hasn’t taken her eyes off him. The two stare at each other, and he offers her his hand. Alexa stands up and takes it! She smiles to the camera, and SmackDown goes to break! Is Alexa going to be part of the Firefly Fun House?!
Six Man Tag: Baron Corbin, Cesaro & Shinsuke Nakamura VS Matt Riddle & Lucha House Party!
The Wolf King teams with the SmackDown Tag Team Champions as the war between him and the Original Bro rages on! Will Corbin be given a pass to the Champions’ Lounge after this? Or will Riddle gladly get #LuchaLit with the Golden Lynx and the King of the Ropes?
Speaking of, before the match, Kayla Braxton interviews this “unusual team” about how this match came together. Well, after Riddle’s loss to Corbin, he was like “(Disappointed) Bro…” But LHP came over and said competing in WWE is a marathon, not a sprint. After that, Riddle was like, “(Inspired) Bro!” So he figured, with the Draft coming up, this would be his only time to team with his new bros. Lince Dorado says negativity drags you down. They encouraged him to keep fighting the good fight. And after they take it to those three in the ring, they can stay #LuchaLit. But wait, where is Kalisto? Kalisto stayed in the locker room. He might have troubles with his mask given how big his head has gotten. But the Lucha Dragon aside, will Lince, Metalik and Riddle be able to mesh and win?
The trios sort out and the King of Strong Styles starts against #TheLuchazord. Nakamura kicks Lince and knees him against the ropes already! The ref counts, Nakamura whips but Lince hits a huricanrana! And dropkick! Lince stomps away on Nakamura but here’s Kalisto! Kalisto is upset they left him behind but Lince keeps on Nakamura. SmackDown goes to break, will Kalisto joining the party throw things off?
SmackDown returns and Corbin stomps away on Gran Metalik! Corbin sucker punches Riddle, the ref has to keep Riddle and Lince back, and that allows Corbin and the tag champs to mug Lince! Kalisto protests but Corbin tags Cesaro. The Swiss Cyborg suplexes Metlaik up and holds him there while doing squats, before dropping him down! Cover, TWO! Tag to Nakamura, the tag champs mug Metlaik and Nakamura clamps on a facelock. Nakamura grinds Metalik down, squeezes tighter but he sucker punches Lince! Nakamura grins as he brings Metalik back up, INVERTED EXPLDOER but Metalik lands on his feet! Metalik dodges and rolls back to go up and tornado DDT Nakamura! Both men are down and the fans fire up!
Metalik and Nakamura crawl, hot tags to Corbin and Riddle! The Bro spins Corbin for a PELE! Corbin is in a corner, Riddle rallies with forearms and the BROSPLODER! Corbin dodges the kick and the moonsault but not the BROTON! PENALTY KICK!! Cover, Nakamura breaks it! Lince runs in, dodges Nakamura, GOLD REWIND! Cesaro tags in and BLASTS Riddle with a European Uppercut! Cover, Lince breaks it! Lince sees Corbin coming and dumps him out! Metalik FLIES out onto Corbin! Cesaro whips, Lince handsprings again but Cesaro catches the Rewind for a back suplex. Lince lands on his feet, waistlocks and shoves Cesaro but Cesaro reverses, Kalisto’s enziguri hits Lince!
Cesaro kicks Lince out but he turns around into a FINAL FLASH! And then the got wrench, BRO DEREK! Cover, Riddle and LHP win!
Winners: Matt Riddle & Lucha House Party, by pinfall
There was a misstep between Kalisto and Lince, but in the end, they and Riddle pull off a win! Lince is still pissed at Kalisto, though, and Riddle tries to keep them from fighting. Is the party inevitably coming to an end?
SmackDown hears from the mysterious woman!
“Sometimes, you need to take a good, hard look in the mirror to remember who you are. And I admit it, I forgot.” She got a little lost along the way. But she knows exactly who to blame: all of the fans! They wanted her to play by our rules. Dance around, have fun, and look where that got her? Nowhere! Then she remembered, she’s CARMELLA! She’s better than each and every one of us. But what she isn’t is our Princess. So whether it’s Raw or SmackDown, it won’t matter. This time, she’s UNTOUCHABLE. “Unless I don’t wanna be.” Who will draft the formerly Fabulous Princess of Staten Island to make their roster untouchable?
Sasha Banks is back!
She still has a neck brace but she also still has her swagger! But what will The Boss have to say about her injury as well as Bayley? We find out after the break.
SmackDown returns, Sasha is in the ring and says, “Really, Bayley? Did you think me not being medically cleared would stop me from beating you down at Clash of Champions?” After all these years of “using” Sasha, Bayley would learn something from Sasha! Like how to have a backbone! But Bayley is nothing but a coward! “A coward that needed me time and time again to keep your title!” Bayley was using Sasha for her accomplishments, and to become the longest reigning SmackDown Women’s Champion ever.
Bayley isn’t here because she’s afraid, but Sasha promises that on draft night, it will be their time to fight FOR the SmackDown Women’s Championship! “Because you and I both know, when it comes down to you and me, and there’s nobody there to save you… You don’t stand a chance, B*TCH!!” THE NECK BRACE COMES OFF!! And so will the gloves! Will Sasha take the title off Bayley before the WWE shakes things up again?
SmackDown makes a match for Draft Night!
After The Fiend attacked Kevin Owens on behalf of Alexa Bliss, he and the Prizefighter will fight for the first time ever! Will Bray Wyatt’s monstrous side win his first match on television?
WWE Intercontinental Championship: Sami Zayn VS Jeff Hardy!
The Great Liberator threw away “the fraudulent” belt that still had the Charismatic Enigma’s side plates, because he only wants the belt he’s always had! But will Hardy render the undisputed Intercontinental Champion OBSOLETE when these two fight again?
SmackDown returns as Hardy makes his entrance. The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and another battle for its future begins!
Sami rushes Hardy and they tie up and Sami powers Hardy to a corner. Sami fires off haymakers, the ref pulls him off but Sami just digs his boots in! The ref counts, Sami lets off, but then stands on Hardy’s head! Sami lets off at 4, Hardy coughs and sputters, but Sami brings him up to punch. Hardy counter punches and fires off! Hardy headlocks, Sami powers out but Hardy runs him over! Things speed up, Sami jumps but into Hardy’s dropkick! Hardy knew to go after the ribs, and he keeps on them with shoulders in the corner. Hardy clubs Sami, rams him again, but lets up at the ref’s count. Hardy stomps Sami, Sami bails out but Hardy pursues to put him back in the ring. Sami kicks low and throws haymakers right back.
Sami keeps on Hardy with the fists, and some trash talk. Sami has exposed a buckle and goes to bump Hardy but Hardy stops himself! Hardy whips Sami away, and back drops Sami! Sami flounders out of the ring and Hardy asks what happened to the buckle pad! The ref looks around but Hardy wrecks Sami with a dropkick in the meantime! Hardy goes out, looks for the buckle pad, too, but it’s nowhere to be found. Hardy runs at Sami, leaping off the steps, POETRY IN MOTION into the barriers! Sami saves himself and Hardy crashes down, and SmackDown goes to break!
SmackDown returns once again, and Hardy fights up out of Sami’s chinlock. Hardy throws body shots as the fans rally, and Hardy jawbreakers back! Sami staggers, Hardy runs, but Sami LARIATS! Cover, TWO! He tries again, TWO! Hardy hits Sami back but Sami clubs him down. Also, the mystery of the missing pad is solved: Sami took it off while we were all distracted by Hardy’s entrance! Though, of course it was Sami. In the present, Sami hobbles over and drops an elbow on Hardy before wrapping on another chinlock. Hardy endures and fans continue to clap and give thumbs up. Hardy elbows Sami, fights up and throws more shots, but Sami throws Hardy down by his hair!
Sami catches his breath, drags Hardy back up and throws him out of the ring. Hardy flops to the floor, Sami goes out to bring him back up, to RAM into barriers! The ring count climbs to 5 but Sami puts Hardy in at 7. Cover, TWO! Sami tries again, TWO! Sami keeps his cool while Hardy flounders to a corner. Sami hops up a corner and leaps at Hardy, flying elbow! Cover, TWO!! Hardy survives by mere milliseconds! Sami drags Hardy up, scoops and slams him, then goes back to the corner. Sami climbs up as fans give thumbs down, and Hardy trips Sami! Sami lands on his great liberator! Hardy climbs up, brings Sami up, and hits a SUPERPLEX!! Both men are down but fans fire up on their screens!
Sami and Hardy stir as a standing count begins. Hardy sits up first but Sami follows. They’re up at 7, Sami throws a haymaker but Hardy gives it back! They brawl back and forth, Hardy gets the edge and whips, but Sami reverses, only for Hardy to clobber him! Atomic drop! Leg splitting leg drop! Basement dropkick! SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Sami survives but Hardy is too tired to be frustrated! Hardy waits for Sami to stand, kicks but Sami backslides out of the Twist! TWO, Hardy swings into a lift, but sunset flips! Cover, TWO!! Sami scrambles, Hardy swings into an EXPLODER into buckles! Sami holds Hardy off and grins as Hardy drags himself away. Sami sees the bare buckle and goes after Hardy. Sami brings Hardy up, whips but Hardy holds ropes!
Sami keeps trying, Hardy throws haymakers! Hardy kicks, Sami blocks but Hardy spinning back kicks! Sami is in a corner, Hardy runs in but only gets buckles! Sami hits BLUE THUNDER! Cover, TWO!! Hardy survives again and now Sami is the one too sore to be frustrated. Sami and Hardy slowly rise, Sami brings Hardy up and to the top rope. Sami climbs up, Hardy throws haymakers and headbutts, then shoves Sami down! Hardy stands up, aims, SWANTON BOMBS onto knees! Hardy clutches his head, Sami watches him writhe. Sami wants Hardy to stand, and Hardy is in the other corner. Sami runs in, Hardy moves, Sami has to avoid the bare buckle! Hardy kicks, Twist denied but Hardy elbows Sami away! Hardy goes up, Sami trips Hardy up and Hardy hits the bare steel!! Cover, Sami WINS!
Winner: Sami Zayn, by pinfall (still WWE Intercontinental Champion)
The Great Liberator planned ahead like he did at Clash of Champions, and wins, just like he did at Clash of Champions! Will Sami hold onto this gold with all the tricks in the book?
My Thoughts:
A pretty good episode for SmackDown, but as a go-home to the 2020 Draft, well, it felt like another weak go-home of old. Sheamus VS Gable was filler just to give Big E’s promo a place to air. But the Falls Count Anywhere match next week is going to be great. I’m pretty sure Big E wins and Sheamus is drafted to Raw, making this a good-bye (to SmackDown) match for Sheamus. Otis VS Morrison was sadly treated as filler, even though it should’ve been bigger given this is the MITB briefcase story. Otis says he’s going to represent himself in the “civil case trial,” and that’s a bit disappointing because I was hoping for David Otunga to make a comeback. But I suppose Otis Dozovic putting on a lawyer act will be hilarious.
The Six Man Tag was pretty good, and it worked out for Riddle to get the pin on someone other than Corbin so that the math between those two stays even. The dysfunction in LHP is growing, I really hope we see it play out because there’s a good chance some dumb decisions are made during the Draft, like splitting LHP up that way. I’m a bit surprised Sasha Banks is going to wrestle again so soon, but I suppose the Draft episode will feel bigger with a title match. Bayley VS Sasha is definitely going to be PPV worthy even for just television, and I have a feeling that, similar to Big E VS Sheamus, winner stays and loser goes to Raw. And in no big surprise, Carmella is the glamorously mysterious woman. She could easily go to Raw to feud with Asuka, but if Sasha wins, maybe Carmella stays.
The Kevin Owens show was a great segment, but I’m not 100% sure on how Alexa was acting here. Alexa having a switch to flip was better, but I suppose this is just how that Alexa is when she isn’t attacking someone. Fiend VS Kevin next week will be great, and I wonder if Alexa or even Aleister gets involved. The Draft might actually be able to bring some depth to Kevin’s current story of trying to redeem himself and Aleister’s shift to an even more menacing persona. The WWE Intercontinental Championship match was great, Sami pulls off quite the magic trick with that buckle pad, and it of course comes into play. Sami keeps the title, and I feel like the Draft will keep him on SmackDown. The US Championship is part of the Hurt Business story, and that story is more than certainly staying on Raw.
My Score: 8.2/10

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Master Wato VS Ninja Mack!
The Way of the Grandmaster lost to the Japanese Young Punk, but the American Ninja got sent back by the Time Splitter. Who will only continue to spiral while the other rises to 2-2?
The bell rings and the fans rally up. Mack offers a handshake, Wato takes it, and the fans applaud. The two circle, tie up, and are in a deadlock. Wato’s slight height advantage helps, and he pushes Mack to a corner. Mack turns things around, the ref calls the break, and Mack lets go slowly, but with a big Ninja “OSU!” Wato is wary, but the fans rally with “NINJA! NINJA!” Mack and Wato tie up again, and Wato puts Mack in the corner this time. The ref counts, Wato lets off slowly, and he gives his own “Osu!” Mack applauds that, and the fans cheer for “WATO! WATO!” Mack is surprised, but he and Wato reset.
The two tie up yet again, and Wato waistlocks. Wato goes for a half nelson, Mack fights it, so Wato spins him to a cravat. Wato snapmares Mack, clamps on with a chinlock, but Mack fights up. Wato hits a takeover, Mack headscissors, Wato kips free, and the fans cheer the standoff. The two tie up again, Wato waistlocks again, and he SLAMS Mack down! Mack fights around, scoots forward, but Wato keeps him from the ropes. Mack drops to slip out the back! Mack waistlocks now, and he THROWS Wato up and out! Wato hops down to the floor, Mack handsprings, but wait, where’d Wato go? Wato pulls a ninja disappearing act!

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Hiromu Takahashi VS Dragon Dia!

Best of the Super Juniors 32 B Block: El Desperado VS Mao!
The Rogue Luchador has lost twice in a row, but that really only proved him right that anyone can win any given match. The Idol Warrior is coming off a loss of his own, can he rebound with a massive main event win? Or will Desperado prove he’s still the Best of the Super Juniors?

Backstage interview with Paragon.
Lexy Nair is with Kyle O’Reilly, Roderick Strong and the AEW TNT Champion, Adam Cole. Lexy brings up Cole’s “target on his back,” and Cole says that’s how it is when you’re a champion. A lot of people want their shot, but that’s how he likes it. He is Adam Cole Baybay, so he is ready to take on anyone and everyone who wants their shot. But then in step the Grizzled Young Veterans. Zack Gibson says it is ironic that the very top stars this business has ever produced are really just three babies. Kyle says cool it right there, pal! Kyle admits, he can be juvenile and immature, maybe young at heart, but he is not some baby.
James Drake says this is Paragon’s real problem: All heart, all jokes, but they’ve gone soft. Roddy shouts, “GRIZZLED~! Young Veterans… I like the scarves, guys. But fellas, you know what I’d like more? To beat their asses.” Gibson says next week, GYV VS Kyle & Roddy, and Gibson warns them right now, the Paragon will be dragged into the deep water. And when they’re down there, gasping for air, then they’ll see if there’s an ounce of fight left in Paragon. Drake says he wants Cole on commentary so we can hear his heart break as everyone sees the best team is GYV. Cole says if GYV wants to be one of the best tag teams in AEW, they’ve gotta earn it.
But trust Cole when he says the pressure isn’t on them, it’s all on GYV. Paragon heads out, who will crack under said pressure when these teams finally have it out?
“Speedball” Mike Bailey VS Blake Christian w/ Lee Johnson!
While Speedball wants after the Rainmaker, Kazuchika Okada doesn’t want anything to do with Speedball. But can Bailey force his hand by stacking up wins toward a title opportunity? Or will the Vanilla Babyface sour everything for everyone?
The bell rings and the fans rally for Speedball. Blake offers a handshake, Bailey accepts, only for Blake to leave him hanging and to “have a taste.” Bailey says whatever, but Blake rushes up behind him! Bailey ducks, then hits a SPANISH FLY! Cover, TWO! Blake sits up, ducks a kick, then avoids the standing moonsault! Blake avoids the leg sweep, Bailey ducks the roundhouse, and Bailey unleashes LIGHTNING KICKS and an ENZIGIRI! The fans fire up and Blake goes to a corner. Bailey runs in and BOOTS Blake, then he scoops and SLAMS him! Bailey goes up the corner, and IMPLODER KNEE DROPS! Cover, TWO!
Blake survives, the fans rally, and Bailey storms back over. Blake trips Bailey into buckle! Blake runs in, Bailey dodges, but then Blake dodges to DROPKICK Bailey in the back! Bailey bails out, Blake goes to the apron and runs, to DIVE through the corner! Blake puts Bailey in, goes up, takes another taste, 450 DOUBLE STOMP!! Cover, TWO!! Bailey survives but he still clutches his gut. Blake drags Bailey up, ELBOWS him in the head, then ELBOWS him again. Blake pushes Bailey onto ropes, CHOKES him, but steps off at 4.

That was a knockout shot from Speedball! He grabs a mic to tell Chicago, “We’ve got some beautiful weather here tonight. So Okada, how about you come out here, you bring your Continental Championship, and we make it rain?” The fans cheer, and Okada does appear! Okada walks out with mic in hand to say, “Bailey… I’ll prove it. B*TCH!!” The fans fire up, but wait! DRALISTICO ATTACKS! Rush is also here! LFI is doing Okada’s bidding, and El Toro Blanco tells Okada to watch himself. HEADBUTT for Bailey! Okada shrugs and leaves, but is the line of contenders growing longer the longer Okada keeps ducking them?
Jon Moxley speaks.
“What was it that I don’t understand? What is it that I don’t understand about a steel cage match? What is it that I don’t understand about a world championship? It looks like YOU and everybody else are the ones who don’t understand. You don’t understand that you can’t break somebody who has been broken over and over and over and built himself back up over and over and over. I cannot be broken. I am made of something stronger than iron, stronger than steel, stronger than gold that everybody wraps around their waists, and walks around, they put it over their shoulder, and they hold it up and they take pictures with it because they think that makes them somebody!!
“What don’t I understand, man? Anarchy would be an improvement over this FAKE, FOOLISH SH*T! Everybody pretending they’re somebody they’re not! Complete and total anarchy would be a step up. You don’t get it, you don’t understand. Gabe Kidd, he works for me. Professionals work for me. The difference between professionals and all these AMATEURS is that professionals hold standards. It doesn’t matter if it’s a steel cage, it doesn’t matter if it’s the baddest man in all of professional wrestling, they get the job done. No matter what the odds, no matter what the obstacles, they don’t give a damn what anybody says or what anybody thinks!
“We are professionals, and we have standards! And we are the best at what we do!! The art of violence on the canvas that we paint defines you, and you find out EXACTLY who you are.” Gabe Kidd says, “Abandon all hope!” Will the Maniac and the Mad Man make sure no one else brings about this Paradigm Shift?
Chicago Street Fight: “Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith VS The Gates of Agony!
Speaking of violence, the Redwood & Bad Apple are done going easy, but the feeling is mutual for Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona! There are no more rules but plenty of weapons, who will survive this Collision?
As Bill & Keith make their entrance, Keith already brings a pool cue and some kind of panel, and Bill brings a table out from under the ring! Chicago already likes where this is going as the table is propped up in a corner. Kaun & Liona make sure to bring trash cans full of plunder, as well as their own pool cue and… a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire!

Liona SMACKS away on Bill’s leg while Kaun CHOKES Keith with a pool cue! Kaun then shoves Keith into the ring and Liona joins him. They drag Keith up, put him in the Tree of Woe, and then add a trashcan to the mix! Liona rallies the fans as Beach Break returns to single picture. Liona runs to RAM the can! Kaun adds a DROPKICK! The Gates drag Keith out of the Tree but into the drop zone, BANZAI DROP! Cover, BILL BREAKS IT!

Liona is down in the wreckage of his own making, but Kaun SMASHES Bill with the trashcan! Kaun brings Bill around, but Keith has his panel!
Keith SMACKS Kaun with that piece of drywall!! But Kaun just gets mad! So Keith HEADSHOTS him with it!! Kaun falls over in a heap, but then laughs as he sits back up!? Keith is at a loss for words, but he KNEES Kaun! Bill BOOTS Kaun onto the trashcan! Bill hauls Kaun up, clamps on, and SKYSCRAPER CHOKE SLAMS!! Cover, Bill & Keith win!
Winners: “Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith, by pinfall
The Learning Tree’s Branches just broke through the Gates of Agony and are standing tall in the Windy City! But will this be enough to earn Chris Jericho’s respect?
Mina Shirakawa speaks.
“Toni Storm. The first time we met, we were distracted. We wanted attention, we got jealous, and then we both made mistakes. When I saw you in Japan, we tamed, we danced, and we laughed. But this time, it’s different. It’s just me and you. I don’t need your wrath, I need your title. You are everything a champion should be. But so is Mina! I did everything in Japan! Now I will do everything in AEW! Toni is Timeless, but Mina is Now!” Then will the Fighting Gravure Idol not just be the next, but the NOW AEW Women’s World Champion?
Tony Schiavone is on stage.
He says here in Chicago, we’ve heard the chant of “MONGO! MONGO!” and it is time to pay tribute to one of the great football players, one of the great pro-wrestlers, the late, great Steve McMichael! The fans cheer that, and we are joined by his widow, Misty McMichael, and she is happy to be here. Steve was the greatest man she’s ever known, made a special impact on both football and wrestling. They were together 27 years in all, and she is so happy to pay tribute. And then we get Dean Malenko! The fans cheer and Dean waves.
Schiavone brings up Mongo being a four-time All Pro, two-time Pro Bowl selection, and part of the Chicago Bears’ Super Bowl 20 winning team, and was even inducted into the NFL Pro-Football Hall of Fame last year. The fans cheer, and Schiavone says Mongo exemplified the fighting spirit and determination of all great Chicago athletes. Plus, in this very building, Mongo coached the Chicago Slaughter to an undefeated season in Arena Football! The fans cheer that, and Schiavone says as a wrestler, Mongo was one of the Four Horsemen, and even became a United States Heavyweight Champion.
May is ALS Awareness, so in partnership with the Les Turner Foundation, AEW wants to help find a cure for ALS. Go to LesTurnerALS.org to learn more. Schiavone now welcomes out the Nature Boy, RIC FLAIR! The fans cheer and “WOO~” as THE Horseman of Horseman makes his way out here to honor his friend. Ric hugs Misty, hugs Dean, and joins Schiavone. Schiavone says they’ve held together like this many times over the years, but tonight is the most special and most emotional. Ric agrees. He wants to say Chicago is one of the greatest wrestling towns in the world.
Ric once coined the phrase, “To be the man, you gotta beat the man.” And Steve McMichael was more man than anyone he’s ever known! Mongo fought ALS for six YEARS! Fully aware of everything around him, yet unable to move. That massive 280 pound man finally made it to the Hall of Fame, and is now up there in Heaven, God bless him and God bless you all. Ric says he cannot say enough about Misty. She never left Mongo’s side. She learned how to be a wonderful nurse. The fans cheer on Mongo, and Ric thanks them for that. Ric thanks everyone for being here, and Schiavone thanks Ric for being here. #ThankYouMongo, we will miss you.
AEW World Tag Team Championships #1 Contenders match: The Sons of Texas VS CRU!
Dustin Rhodes & Sammy Guevara may be the ROH World Tag Team Champions, but that doesn’t mean they’re just going to stop. But Lio Rush pointed out that he and Bobby Lashley have history that needs to be sorted out. Will the Man of the Hour and Action Andretti be a sight to see?

Sammy says he can still do it! Dustin runs, but then stops at the ropes and tells CRU to “SUCK IT!” We get a DUSTINROONI, and a pose! Sammy joins in and CRU is furious! Sammy tags Dustin back in but CRU wants chairs? They make Arkady Aura and the timekeeper give up their chairs, but then the Sons of Texas go out to CLAW and CLOBBER CRU for it! Sammy RAMS Lio, Lio fires hands, but Dustin UPPERCUTS Action! Dustin and Sammy send CRU into railing on opposite ends of ringside. The fans cheer as Dustin CLAWS Action’s back! Lio wants a timeout, but then Action sends Dustin into steel steps!
The fans boo and Sammy is worried for Dustin, but Action anchors Sammy at the apron! Lio HANDSPRING KICKS Sammy down, then DIVES! Direct hit, and then Lio sets Sammy up for Action’s ARABIAN PRESS! The fans boo as CRU stands tall, but Collision goes picture in picture.

Lio KICKS the leg, but Dustin UPPERCUTS! Lio wobbles, but he comes back for another CHOP BLOCK!
Tag to Action, Action has Dustin’s leg on the ropes, and he pulls on the foot! The ref counts, Action stop, but Lio pulls on the leg! Sammy protests while Dustin suffers, and Collision goes to break.
Beach Break returns as CRU have Dustin’s legs! They DOUBLE LEG DDT! Dustin writhes, the ref reprimands, but Action flips off Sammy.

Backstage interview with Kris Statlander.
Lexy Nair is with the Galaxy’s Greatest, and brings up how last week, Kris won over Willow Nightingale, but not without help from the Death Riders. Speaking of Willow, she storms in and asks if Kris has something to say. Is Kris sorry again? Yes, actually! Is she gonna claim she didn’t see Marina Shafir choke Willow out? No, of course she didn’t! Willow says save the excuses. Kris and Yuta used to be Best Friends! Yeah, well now they’re not! Willow and Kris shout over each other, but Willow says she is too busy with the Death Riders. Willow pulls Kris’ hair to get her to stop, but Kris says when Willow is ready, she knows where to find Kris.
The two storm off in opposite directions, and clearly the tension has only mounted between them. What will it take for the former friends to be friends again?

“Powerhouse” Will Hobbs VS Wheeler Yuta!
The Steel Cage main event for Dynamite was brutal, and naturally both The Opps and the Death Riders got involved. Anarchy in the Arena awaits, but will Hobbs and Yuta still be part of it? Or will one of them take out the other with extreme prejudice?
While Hobbs is on the corner as part of his entrance, Yuta attacks! The bell rings while the fans boo, and the ref reprimands Yuta for the sneak attack. Yuta doesn’t care as he CLUBS away on Hobbs! But wait, Hobbs isn’t even bothered. The fans tell Yuta he messed up, but then Yuta SLAPS Hobbs! Talk about double or nothing… Hobbs chases Yuta around the outside, then back into the ring. Yuta CLUBS away on Hobbs, but Hobbs grabs him with both hands! Yuta slips free, goes to the apron, and he HOTSHOTS Hobbs! Yuta runs in again, but Hobbs CLOBBERS him! The fans cheer while Hobbs snarls.

As for Willow & Hobbs, they stand tall. With just over a week left, will these powerhouses be obvious choices for Anarchy in the Arena?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision that only suffered from TNT and/or MAX having broadcasting problems. Not sure why it happened, but this isn’t the first time a prerecorded Collision has been messed up on some level. Are they just putting interns and amateurs behind the desk on these episodes? Thankfully when some technology fails, other technology is there to make up for it. Ironically, that loving tribute to Steve McMichael was a great place to end any broadcast, and what a great surprise for Ric Flair to show up.
Megan VS Anna was a very good opener, and that buckle spot was a very clever way for Ford to factor into the finish. Megan was of course going to win, though, and she stays strong and undefeated while waiting on a title shot. Good promo from Mina to hype up her shot at Toni, and Mina will have a great match with Julia Hart next Wednesday. Great stuff from The Don Callis Family tonight, from Kyle VS Fox to the Six Man Tag. Great win for Kyle to keep him sharp while waiting on title stories, but also good win for the Faces. The Outrunners coming to help after was also very fitting, I wonder if we’ll get a 10 Man of Bandido, Brody, Ishii & Outrunners VS Kyle, Konosuke, Alexander and RPG Vice. That’s at least a solid Buy-In match.
Very good stuff with Bailey VS Blake but Bailey of course won. Bailey calling out Okada was great, and of course Okada insults Bailey rather than fight him. LFI attacking Bailey was a nice surprise, and while Dralistico might want another match with Bailey, I think it’s time we get Bailey VS Rush, and then the winner of that can challenge Okada for the Continental Championship. Story wise, Okada VS Bailey makes sense, but Okada VS Rush is just awesome to think about. The Chicago Street Fight was very good, and I appreciate even Chicago likes Big Bill. Bill & Keith winning is great for them, and can certainly feed into Jericho’s return and how Jericho still won’t respect his Branches. Then we get Bill VS Jericho, and Learning Tree splits up.
Good promo from The Paragon with GYV, and we’ll get a great match of GYV VS Roddy & Kyle. Cole bringing up his TNT Championship but then not setting up a challenger is odd, but I think it has to do with Sammy Guevara taking his detour into this tag title story. CRU VS Sons of Texas was great, but as I was saying for Dynamite, Sons of Texas winning was just a given. Very good promo from Willow and Kris, great match of Yuta VS Hobbs, and great win for Hobbs. Hobbs & Willow running off Yuta & Marina was good stuff, I wonder if they fit in a Mixed Tag before Anarchy in the Arena as a sampler of what we could get for Double or Nothing, Willow beating up Yuta while Marina tries to choke out Hobbs.
