Winners: The Hunt, by pinfall

Dennis is all smiles as his animals are victorious! Will the Hunt sink its teeth into the NXT UK Tag Team Championships soon enough?

 

NXT UK hears from Dave Mastiff and Trent Seven.

The Bomber says “It’s almost like a full circle moment for two lands from Black Country.” Seven says it was June 26th, 2011 when they had a text conversation. “Hello, Dave.” Seven wanted Dave Mastiff to teach us what Dave Mastiff was about in Progress Wrestling. Seven knew Mastiff was one of the best wrestlers in the country, so he would be a great help in getting the others to that level. Mastiff was a nice guy so he did it. They became good friends and great rivals. Now, they’re in the WWE together. Seven doesn’t need Mastiff’s help here.

The Heritage Cup finals, one man will make a name for themselves. But it’ll take one shot to knock Seven out. “Just ask Joseph Conners.” Seven and Mastiff know each other well. But Seven wants Mastiff to get out of the way so the world can see Seven is the best. “It has to be me.” But will it be him when he’s up against a Proper British Heavyweight?

 

Jack Starz VS Rampage Brown!

The scrappy underdog welcomed the Ring General in his NXT UK debut. Now he’s doing it again for the newest high level acquisition! Will Rampage Brown leave his mark on Starz like Walter did?

The bell rings and Starz circles with Rampage. They tie up and Rampage throws Starz down hard. Starz gets up, circles with Rampage again, and they tie up.

Starz runs, but into Rampage’s arms! Rampage pops Starz up for a SAMOAN DROP! Rampage drags Starz up, gut wrench to the DOCTOR BOMB! Cover, Rampage wins!

Winner: Rampage Brown, by pinfall

Rampage may not have left a mark on Starz but he will surely remember this forever! Rampage’s rampage begins, will he storm up the ranks towards the title?

 

NXT UK Media and Sid Scala prepare to record.

Rolling. The flags are in the shot, that’s good. But then Ashton Smith and Oliver Carter politely ask to borrow the cameraman for some “investigative journalism.” They have the inside scoop on just what the situation is between Pretty Deadly and Eddie Dennis. They walk over to Sam Stoker and Lewis Howley, and Smith first asks who is who. Skip that question. What is going on with Eddie Dennis? Pretty Deadly says that’s none of their business. They only care about the tag team titles. Maybe “you two boys” should focus on training rather than making jokes.

Who you calling a joke? Howley tells Carter to get his finger out of Stoker’s face, but then Smith tells Howley not to get in Carter’s face. They argue, Scala steps in, and has them save this for a match. Pretty Deadly heads out, and Scala tells Smith and Carter to please move on as well. Will the real headline be one of these two teams coming out on top in the tag title race?

 

NXT UK reviews the timeline of Kay Lee Ray VS Piper Niven.

The NXT UK Women’s Champion has reigned since TakeOver: Cardiff in 2019 when she beat Toni Storm, but things got far more serious on February 27, 2020. The I Quit match between KLR and Toni Storm not only blocked Toni from ever challenging for the title while KLR holds it, but it easily could’ve crippled Toni and ended her career! Piper was the only reason Toni thought of her future and not about the title. After a long wait, NXT UK finally started up again, and it was September 24, 2020 that KLR gave Piper her 1v1 shot. KLR vowed we’d all find out why she was always just a little bit better.

But it was Piper primed to take the title with KLR’s knee taking serious damage in the match. The match was going to be called, and Piper said she didn’t want to win like that anyway. KLR took offense that Piper assumed she’d win, and the match continued! And a mishap with the buckles was a lucky break for KLR. But Piper says the plan is as it’s always been: take the title off KLR. But while reigns fade, injuries can last forever. Piper has been stalking KLR and beating down anyone who gets in her way! Jinny was one to feel the new aggression of Piper Niven, and the rematch from September is coming! Will Piper end KLR’s title reign one way or another?

 

NXT UK Media catches up with Rampage Brown.

His debut in the ring was a win, but how is he feeling? That was just him getting started. The rest of the boys better just be able to keep up. Will Rampage leave everyone else in the dust?

 

Xia Brookside VS Nina Samuels!

It’s time to fly with the bright young second generation superstar again, and against a familiar foe. Will Xia’s sequel with the Leading Lady go the same as the original? Or will this be bigger and better for Brookside?

The bell rings and Brookside circles with Samuels. They tie up, Brookside wrenches to a wristlock but Samuels grabs hair. Samuels reverses the wrench, Brookside uses ropes to flip through, then wrings Samuels out, but Samuels cartwheels through. Brookside dropkicks Samuels down! Then monkey flips her! Brookside headlocks, Samuels tries to power out but Brookside uses ropes to springboard and hit the takeover! Brookside grinds Samuels down but Samuels headscissors back. Brookside bridges up but Samuels SLAPS her down! Brookside keeps moving and gets around to turn Samuels over. Brookside rolls back to get the Half Crab! Samuels powers up but Brookside rolls her over to drop down on the leg! Brookside then hooks the legs up in a deathlock!

Brookside stomps the other leg before bridging to put torque on the hold. Samuels’ shoulders are down, ONE! Samuels gets inside the legs to trip Brookside up! Brookside boots Samuels away but the springboard takeover is denied this time. Samuels side steps Brookside and catches the crossbody for a BACKBREAKER! Brookside writhes but Samuels stomps away at the rope! The ref counts, Samuels lets off but she brings Brookside up to snapmare her down. Samuels clamps on to an arm then adds a chinlock. Brookside endures as Samuels cranks the neck. Samuels fights up, throws body shots but Samuels clubs her down! Samuels stomps Brookside, then tells her, “This is not your time. This is my spotlight! You are not the little sweetheart that you think you are!”

Samuels keeps pushing Brookside around but Brookside fires off forearms! Brookside whips, Samuels reverses but Brookside boots back! Brookside goes up to hit the huricanrana! Brookside fires up, runs in but is put on the top rope. Brookside boots Samuels away then crossbodies again! Cover, TWO! Brookside staggers up and goes after Samuels. Samuels grabs the ring skirt, Brookside lets go and Samuels BOOTS her down! Cover, TWO!! Samuels sneers as she stomps away on Brookside! Samuels fireman’s carries, Brookside sunset flips, TWO! Brookside runs, slips out of the tilt-o-whirl, CODE BREAKER! Cover, TWO!! Samuels survives but Brookside runs in, only to miss in the corner! Samuels throws Brookside down! Samuels hops up but Brookside SHORYUKENS!

Brookside has the arms but Samuels kicks her away. Samuels cartwheels away but her leg gives out! The ref checks but Brookside doesn’t trust the actress playing it up. The ref still keeps her back, Brookside keeps trying go after Samuels and she cradles her! Brookside wins!

Winner: Xia Brookside, by pinfall

Brookside took advantage of reality and has her win! But it looks like it wasn’t just an act as refs help Samuels out of the ring. Brookside feels bad and wants to check on Samuels, but Samuels BOOTS Brookside down! It was an act!! And then Samuels drags Brookside up for NINA GOROSHI!! The Leading Lady still gets one over on Brookside, but will the final act be in the trilogy’s finale?

 

NXT UK Media catches up with Sam Gradwell.

The Thunder Storm’s return to NXT UK was a loss, but how does he feel about that? Well that’s a horribly intrusive question. And he doesn’t recall losing. After two years away, instead of being in a match, “a battle of wit and limb, both of which mine are vastly superior,” he’s thrown into a gang war. It was like a rave with the Coffey family and their dog. He can’t account for every second of that melee. But if hypothetically, he happened to be pinned by Joe Coffey, rest assured that 1v1 it’d be a very different tale indeed. But then Alexander Wolfe comes by and can’t believe what Gradwell is going on about. He better get his act together, because he is a disgrace to the sport. Wolfe walks off and Gradwell hollers after, “Okay, thanks! Bye!” Will Gradwell continue to do things his way, no matter what?

 

NXT UK Heritage Cup Semifinals: Dave Mastiff VS Trent Seven!

The Bomber and the Artful Dodger are no more than six rounds away from the finals against The Spanish Ace! But Mastiff clobbered Joseph Conners early in the third while it took until late in the fifth for Seven. Will it be a sprint or a marathon to the finish between these two?

The bell rings to open the first round and the two circle. They tie up, go around, and Mastiff puts Seven in a corner. The ref calls for the break and Mastiff lets off. Mastiff and Seven tie up again, but Mastiff keeps Seven from backing him down. Mastiff puts Seven on ropes, they let off and circle again. They tie up again, Seven headlocks and grinds tight. Mastiff powers Seven to ropes again, but lets off. Seven shoves Mastiff and the two tie up again. Seven goes back to the headlock and thrashes around. Mastiff has the leg, Seven cranks harder, but Mastiff rolls and throws Seven off! A minute left in the round and the two tie up again.

Mastiff headlocks Seven now, and throws Seven over! Seven keeps his shoulders up as he pushes back but Mastiff leans a lot of weight on him. Seven manages to fight up, throws body shots, then gets a headlock back on Mastiff. Mastiff tries to power out but Seven cravats. Mastiff powers out after all, they collide with big shoulders, but neither man falls! Under 10 seconds and Seven keeps trying, he ducks and DOUBLE CROSSBODIES collide! The round ends with both men down!

Mastiff: 0; Seven: 0

But the problem here is that both men are in the wrong corner! They have to go across the way for their 20 second break, but that’s easier for Mastiff than it is for Seven. The two catch their breath and have a gulp of water, and it’s time for round two!

Seven and Mastiff circle again, tie up, Mastiff KNEES Seven low! Then again! Mastiff drags Seven back up to whip him to a corner. Seven bounces off buckles into a back drop! Cover, TWO! Seven toughs it out but Mastiff stalks behind him. Mastiff grabs at Seven but Seven grabs a leg. Mastiff CLUBS Seven but Seven holds on. Mastiff CLUBS him again, then brings him up to whip corner to corner. Seven doesn’t bounce off buckles this time, he leans against ropes. But Seven refuses to stop this here so Mastiff whips him corner to corner. Another back drop but Seven sunset flips! Mastiff sits down but Seven avoids being crushed! LA MAGISTROL! Seven gets the fall!!

Mastiff: 0; Seven: 1

Mastiff is surprised, but now he’s behind the 8 ball! Can Seven finish this off before Mastiff evens the score?

Round three begins and Seven circles with Mastiff again. Seven kicks and headlocks but Mastiff powers out. Mastiff uses the kitchen sink knee to knock Seven down hard! Seven gasps but Mastiff stomps him and drops a back senton! Cover, TWO!! Seven survives but Mastiff keeps on him. Mastiff drags Seven up, fireman’s carries, but Seven fights out! Seven CHOPS, ducks a punch and CHOPS again! Seven eggs Mastiff on, fakes him out and kicks to DDT! But Seven doesn’t cover, his body is too sore right now. Seven gets to a corner as the standing count climbs. Seven is up at 4, then climbs up to the top! Mastiff clubs his legs out and Seven lands on his 8 ball!

Mastiff brings Seven around as he climbs up to join him. Seven fights back, adjusts position but Mastiff gets him for a SUPERPLEX after all! We’re under a minute as Mastiff crawls after Seven. Cover, TWO!! Seven won’t give up a fall so easily! Seven shoves Mastiff but Mastiff drags him up. Seven blocks the big forearm to ripcord, SEVEN STAR LARIAT! Mastiff only drops to a knee! Mastiff forearms but Seven blocks and SLAPS, BACK HAND! Seven seconds but no Seven Star as Mastiff DECKS Seven! But the ref needs time to check on Seven, and the round ends!

Mastiff: 0; Seven: 1

The ref still checks on Seven. If Seven can’t continue, Mastiff will still win. Seven crawls his way to his corner, saying he isn’t done. This will continue into round four but Seven doesn’t have time to really recover. Mastiff runs in but Seven drops to his knees. The ref checks on Seven but Mastiff drags Seven up. Seven shoves Mastiff but Mastiff dropkicks him into the corner! Mastiff drags Seven back up, and POWERBOMBS him! Mastiff puts Seven in the corner, and runs INTO THE VOID!! Cover, Mastiff ties it up!

Mastiff: 1; Seven: 1

We go to the fifth round but clearly things are in Mastiff’s favor. Seven stirs but he refuses to let the ref end this. Seven groans as he gulps water and gets to his feet. Mastiff storms over but Seven sits back down. Mastiff chuckles as he runs and leaps, INTO THE VOID but MISSES as Seven moves! Seven is outside the ring but he drags himself up with the ropes. Mastiff is after Seven first as he climbs up. Mastiff drags Seven up by his hair, but Seven resists the dead lift! Seven ROCKS Mastiff with a body shot, then another! Seven finds new life as he climbs up top! Seven sunsets but Mastiff holds the ropes. So Seven CHOPS a leg! Seven manages a torture rack, BIRMINGHAMMER!! Cover, SEVEN WINS!!

Winner: Trent Seven by pinfall (advances to the finals)

With 90 seconds in the fifth, Seven conquers the Bomber! He needed this win and he got it! Mastiff is frustrated with himself because he thought he had this right from the start. “A lot of names may have come before, but the first one engraved on that trophy is Trent…” A-Kid comes by to see his challenger. Seven says, “May the best man win,” and they both shake hands, while looking at the trophy. Whose name really will grace the trophy’s plaque first after Seven takes on the Anonymous Kid?


My Thoughts:

A really good episode, especially with the Heritage Cup match. The story of Seven gritting it out against big bad Dave Mastiff was executed expertly, from the double crossbody being a pivotal point to Seven narrowly avoiding the knockout. Again, while it felt more like it was going to be Dar VS Seven, A-Kid VS Seven is going to be great. As great as A-Kid is, Seven is also great and there’s perhaps a bit more story to him winning. For one, we can totally get Seven VS Dar for Seven’s first defense. And honestly, every defense for Seven can feel as desperate as tonight’s match, and it should. I hope that goes deep into the sixth round, and as close to the last second as possible.

The Hunt had a strong tag match with Williams and Jordan, but of course Hunt wins to further the story with Eddie Dennis. Carter and Smith getting at Pretty Deadly for being used by Dennis is pretty clever, too, and that will be a good match for both teams to build momentum with. Sam Gradwell has a surprisingly wordy promo, but I’m curious with how Alexander Wolfe got in his face about him talking so much. Gradwell VS Wolfe is a pretty good match to me, and I feel like that helps Gradwell be a Tweener of sorts since Imperium are definitely Heel. Rampage of course crushes Starz, I can already see he’ll head up the ranks to take on Walter for the title given his UK legacy.

Brookside VS Samuels was a solid rematch but clearly not final. I feel like their payoff needs to be huge, and topped off with the winner being #1 contender to the NXT UK Women’s Championship. The video package for KLR VS Piper, Falls Count Anywhere, was pretty good but mostly just reused footage and audio. The match will be incredible, I’m sure, and could go either way given Piper’s new edge. KLR has her year mark but only because COVID caused everything to shut down. KLR can still build her reign with more challengers, but the other Faces of the NXT UK Women’s Division haven’t really been built up. Again, time missed because of the shutdowns has a lot to do with that, but that just means time must be invested now. Maybe Piper does win so that she and Jinny can feud and bide time for the rest of the division to build up.

My Score: 8.1/10

Zero Hour – Anna Jay VS Deonna Purrazzo w/ Taya Valkyrie!

The Queenslayer was offered help against Mariah May by The Vendetta but she declined, so this is the payback. Will the Virtuosa handle business? Or will Anna still become the Star of the Show?

The bell rings but Taya distracts Anna. Anna takes a swipe but Deonna kicks low. Deonna headlocks,. Anna powers out, but Deonna RAMS her! Anna stays up, slips around, and waistlocks.

Anna stays on Deonna with another whip, but Deonna reverses.

Anna slips to the apron, then ROCKS Deonna! Deonna comes back but into a HEEL KICK! Anna goes up a corner but Taya anchors her! Deonna distracts the ref, then she BOOTS Anna! The fans boo but Taya just takes a bow. Deonna “kicks dirt” at Anna, then drags her up. Deonna short arm LARIATS, then she stands on Anna’s face! The ref counts, Deonna steps off, and Deonna storms back up on Anna. Deonna drags Anna up, throat chops her, and Anna goes to a corner. Deonna LARIATS in the corner, LARIATS again, then short arm LARIATS! Cover, TWO! Anna stays in this but Deonna stays focused.

Deonna paces around, drops a knee on Anna, then clamps on a straitjacket stretch. Anna endures, even as Deonna KNEES her in the back! Deonna bends Anna back but Anna still endures. Anna fights up, snapmares free, but Deonna BOOTS her back! Then BOOTS again! Anna SUPERKICKS! But Deonna hits a FLATLINER, into a KOJI KLUTCH! Anna stacks Deonna, TWO!

Winner: Anna Jay, by pinfall

Deonna is furious, but maybe she should’ve let the ref throw this out. In the end, Anna gets a real win over Deonna, will this help her get back towards some title scene?

 

Backstage interview with Billie Starkz.

Lexy Nair is with her ROH Minion buddy, and notes that Billie is the first ROH woman entered in the first ever WrestleDynasty International Women’s Cup! Billie, what an opportunity, how are you feeling? She is excited! This is the second chance she’s been waiting for, and- Red Velvet steps in to say more like NO chance. Because see, Velvet is also in that match, and well, she already beat Billie. So her odds are looking really good. But then in steps Leyla Hirsch. And she says lucky for them both, because Leyla’s in this! Leyla beat Velvet once, and just looking at Billie, Leyla knows she can beat her.

Oh but then in steps the ROH Women’s World Champion, Athena! The Minion Overlord defends her bestie and Billie, and says it is finally time for the Athena World Tour! She is the fourth participant, even though, why does she have to qualify for HER show? Athena has beaten Velvet, she’s beaten “Small fry” Leyla, and well… Billie Goat, we all know Athena dog walked her! Velvet says Athena shouldn’t talk to Billie like that. Billie says “Cupcake” doesn’t need to defend her. Things are getting tense already, who wins their way into WrestleDynasty’s massive crossover match?

 

Backstage interview with QT Marshall.

Lexy is now with QT and says later int he Zero Hour, it is QT VS Big Boom AJ. QT took AJ out last night after the weigh-in, will it be the same here tonight? QT wants Lexy to remember, pronounce it “Mar-shall.” And yes, in QT’s home state of New Jersey, the best part will be QT remembering why he left. It’s a dump! Especially Newark! But AJ is also from New Jersey, and he properly represents this dump. Whether AJ is on the Tonight Show, on TikTok, or here in AEW, he is the epitome of someone from The Garden State: an embarrassment! He’s worse than Bruce Springsteen himself!

And tonight, in a sold out crowd that QT drew all himself, it will be like going to his high school reunion and showing how he is more successful than everyone else. And he’ll do that by walking to the ring, staring down AJ, and bringing the doom! Will QT Marshall make himself the boss of the Zero Hour? Or will it be a BOOM for all of New Jersey when QT loses?

 

New Year’s Day is a NEW ERA for AEW!

Starting Wednesday, January 1st, 2025, AEW Dynamite will be SIMULCAST on Max! And even bigger, it is the return of Fight for the Fallen! All proceeds go to helping victims of Hurricane Helene in Ashville, North Carolina.

 

Zero Hour – Fatal 4 Way: Dante Martin VS The Beast Mortos VS Komander VS Buddy Matthews!

Now this is going to be a fast ‘n’ furious match! Angel Dorado, the menacing minotaur, the Commander of Space and the Aussie Juggernaut are all fighting for opportunity, who makes that greater impact?

The bell rings and the four watch each other closely. Buddy and Mortos lock eyes as the big guys in this match, but Komander runs up. Buddy KNEES Komander low and shoves him out. Dante tries but Buddy does the same to him! The fans fire up now as we get Buddy and Mortos circling. But Dante and Komander return!

The fans cheer as the World’s Largest Athlete now joins commentary for what could be the biggest match of Zero Hour history! And he isn’t alone, because our special guest timekeeper is… THE RIZZLER!

QT’s Doom Squad tried to screw over AJ, but Big Justice laid down the law! Rizzler celebrates with AJ & Big Justice! Will they continue to bring the BOOM to AEW?

 

Mercedes Mone & Kamille arrive backstage.

The CEO is upset that her title defense has to be here in disgusting Newark, NJ. But since the cameras are here, she has something to say to Kamille now. This last month has been super frustrating. Actually, more like embarrassing! Kamille came out to the crowd, pandering for sympathy?! Mone wouldn’t even be in this mess if not for Kamille in the first place! Kamille shows up wanting to attack Kris Statlander, and then she loses to her?! And let’s not even start on her bad driving! Is Kamille stupid or just dumb? Kamille tells Mone to watch herself. Mone asks if she gave Kamille permission to speak. Does Kamille not know who Mone is and what she’s done for this business?

Mone is The CEO, the greatest woman’s champion o fall time! And tonight, Kamille can just watch from catering as Mone shows how a real woman gets the job done. Watch and learn. Mone leaves, Kamille rolls her eyes, but clearly Kamille wishes she could use both arms right now. Will the Brickhouse just have to watch Two Belts Mone lose one of those belts all on her own?

 

AEW World Tag Team Championships Fatal 4 Way: Private Party VS The Outrunners VS The Kings of the Black Throne VS The Acclaimed!

Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy really only just got theses titles, and their first defense is the biggest match anyone could ask for! Will the party keep on going through tonight? Or will another team use these steep odds to their advantage?

Platinum Max of course has a diss track on deck! “Platinum Max on the mic, so bright, you gon’ get a tan. House of Black made my ears bleed with their shi**y band! Outrunners stain couch covers. I leave stains on your stout mothers! Private Party gonna go from haves to the have-nots. The only shots they take are back shots! I know you checkin’ the vibe because everybody loves the Best Wrestler Alive!” Bowens is confused by Caster’s change in catchphrase, and then Caster just throws the mic at him? Bowens has to pick it up and refocus. “NEWARK, NEW JERSEEEEY~! The Acclaimed have arrived! Scissor Me, Daddy Ass!” And Billy does~!

But with that, Private Party is last but certainly not least! Pyro goes off for the official start of Full Gear, and “Oh my God, is that Private Party?” Ladies line the ramp with glow sticks as Quen & Zay make their entrances, bringing back “SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS!” as their theme! The introductions are made, the belts are raised, as is the difficulty level. Will Quen & Zay still be on top of the game with odds like this?

All the teams stare down, but Caster quietly backs off. However, in this kind of Fatal 4 Way, only two teams can be legal at a time. Quen steps up for the champs, and Malakai steps up for the House. They circle while the fans rally up, and they tie up. Malakai arm-drags to armlock, but Quen rolls back. Malakai hammerlocks but Quen sits down, rolls, and headscissors! Malakai shrugs that off but Quen armlocks. Malakai wrangles Quen to a wristlock but Quen rolls and arm-drags free! Malakai trips Quen, Quen boots him away, and then Quen kicks. Malakai blocks, flips Quen, and sits down cross-legged! The fans cheer and Quen tells Malakai to get up.

Malakai reverses to get up so Quen runs up. Malakai ducks under, kips up, trips Quen to cover, ONE! Quen sweeps to cover, ONE! Both men kip up and the fans fire up! Quen and Malakai reset, but then Quen has to duck The End! Malakai smirks as he almost had Quen. Quen rushes up to headlock but Malakai back suplexes! Quen lands out, kicks, but Malakai easily blocks it! Quen shoves Malakai, Malakai ELBOWS Quen down! Malakai drags Quen up, Bowens tags in off him, and the fans fire up as Malakai and BOwens stare down. Bownes rusn up on Quen, and he turns hip toss into hip toss!

Zay tags in, runs up, he and Bowens block arm-drags! Then arm-drags cancle out! Bowens whips bu tZay arm-drags! Bowens mule kicks, front kicks, runs and FAMOUSERS! The fans fire up as “EVERYONE!

Turbo fires up to fire hands but Brody ROCKS Turbo, then CHOPS him! But Turbo is powering up! Turbo flexes, runs, but Brody LARIATS Turbo down! The fans bark for Brody as he drags Turbo to the outside, and then throws him into railing!

Brody DECKS Caster, pushes Bowens into the ring, and The House regroups. Malakai KNEES Bowens, Brody puts Bowens up top, and they both climb! A SUPERPELX for the Power, DIVING DOUBLE STMOPS for the Glory! Malakai then goes up and out to QUEBRADA the whole cluster! Malakai puts Quen in for the hell of it, and Quen BOOTS Brody! Quen kicks at Malakai but Malakai blocks it to THROW him down! Quen ends up in the corner, Brody LARIATS! Then POP-UP KNEE! Zay springboards in, into a HAYMAKER! LEG SWEEP! SENTON! The fans fire up for The Kings of the Black Throne!

The Outrunners and Acclaimed regroup and they stare The House down. The fans rally up as it is a 4v2 brawl! Truth & Caster mug Brody while Bowens & Turbo TOSS Malakai! Private Party joins the party and they beat Brody down. Bowens goes up and everyone holds Brody open! SCISSOR ME TIMBERS~! The fans fire up, but then Caster BOOTS Truth! Turbo TOSSES Quen, Bowens TOSSES Zay. Bowens and Turbo stare down, and the fans fire up! But then Caster DECKS Turbo! Truth DECKS Caster! Bowens clinches and spins Truth to NECKBREAKER! Bowens brings Turbo up to suplex! Zay is back, he SUPERKICKS Bowens!

Malakai TOSSES Caster, Bowens fires Rock Paper Scissors SUPERKICK on Malakai!

Caster hits a MISSILE DROPKICK on Malakai! The fans tell Caster off but he ignores that. Bowens tags in off Turbo, Caster tags in off Brody, how does that work!? The ref and The Acclaimed have to sort that out, but the fans are on Bowens’ side! Billy tells them to focus, they spot Turbo and DOUBLE SUPERKICK! The Acclaimed argue about who should be legal, but Caster says just pin him! This is the loophole of this Fatal 4 Way! Bowens does cover Caster, but Quen SWANTON BOMBS it apart! Zay tags in off Caster, but Bowens catches him ot a cradle! TWO!! Zay rolls Bowens, TWO! Bowens ROLLING ELBOWS Zay!!

Bowens fires up, and he brings Zay around to whip. Zay reverses, Caster tags in! Bowens has the crucifix but the ref says he’s not legal! Bowens says Caster messed this up!

Backstage interview with Orange Cassidy.

Lexy Nair is with Freshly Squeezed and says this past Wednesday, The Death Riders sent a clear message. How is that affecting his mindset tonight? Cassidy says yes, they sent a message. But tonight, “we” send a message back. AEW sends a message back! Private Party started it. They’re AEW Day One, and they’re the AEW World Tag Team Champions. Because AEW means everything to them, just like it does to Cassidy and to all the fans here tonight. How could Moxley possibly understand that? Because Moxley never needed AEW. Cassidy wouldn’t exist without AEW. So tonight, Cassidy shows that AEW doesn’t need Moxley!

Cassidy takes the power, the symbol of what AEW represents, and puts it in his backpack as the NEW AEW World Champion. Cassidy heads out, will he make this all become a reality?

 

MJF VS Roderick Strong!

The Wolf of Wrestling tried to worm his way out of another situation by setting obstacles in front of his enemies. However, The Savior of the Backbreaker still made it through three matches to earn this opportunity and finally shutting MJF up. Will Roddy break MJF’s back and make him humble? Or will Maxwell Jacob Friedman prove he is still better than everyone else, and we know it?

The bell rings and MJF bails right out! The fans boo but MJF grabs a mic. MJF tells that the disgusting poors should keep their mouths shut! Roddy, you wanna know why the people like you? It’s not because you’re a good wrestler, it’s that you’re just like them: WHITE TRASH! Oh, sorry, did MJF insult the dumpster fire of the world? Hey, wanna know what’s really great? When MJF is out of this crap company and no longer wrestling in front of these fat losers, he’s out there making millions shooting movies! Meanwhile, Roddy’s mama is shooting his daddy! MJF soaks up the heat, but Roddy slides out to CHOP MJF down!

Roddy swings, MJF dodges, then dodges again! Roddy CHOPS the POST! MJF bares some crossbars and he puts Roddy’s fingers in the gap! MJF bends the fingers! The ref reprimands, MJF lets go at 4, and he refreshes the ring count. MJF then wrenches the bad hand, tucks it into Roddy’s tights, and then gut wrenches to APRON POWERBOMB! Roddy falls to the floor and MJF smirks as he leaves Roddy behind.

The fans boo but MJF goes back to put Roddy in the ring. MJF storms in, he drags Roddy around, and MJF stands on Roddy’s hand. “You’re a bum! Not a single effin’ person in here cares about you!” MJF stomps Roddy’s hand, then he tells the fans to shut up. MJF reels Roddy in, but Roddy wrenches out to CHOP! CHOP! MJF dodges but Roddy CHOPS again! MJF BITES the bad hand! MJF then WRINGS Roddy into the corner! MJF soaks up heat while mockingly checking his “watch.” MJF says this is too easy, then he goes back for the bad hand. Roddy endures, fights around, but MJF wrangles him to the mat.

MJF continues to talk trash but Roddy still endures. The fans prove MJF wrong as they rally up for Roddy, and Roddy fights to his feet. Roddy throws elbows, then forearms! Roddy whips but MJF YANKS the bad arm! MJF runs up, but Roddy BOOTS! ENZIGIRIS! And HALF NELSON- NO, MJF wrenches out to have the bad hand. Roddy slips around, and he HALF NELSON BACKBREAKERS after all! Both men are down and the fans fire up. Fans actually duel, seems New Jersey likes a devil like MJF. But Roddy CHOPS first! And ELBOWS MJF, then CALF KICKS! Roddy keeps moving and he LARIATS MJF down!

The fans fire up as Roddy fires elbow after elbow, then he torture racks! MJF reaches out, but Roddy REVERSE LAWN DARTS! JUMP KNEE! ANGLE SLAM! Cover, TWO! MJF survives but Roddy huffs ‘n’ puffs. The fans rally, Roddy hauls MJF up, but MJF wrenches and WRINGS the bad arm! Both men are down and the fans rally again. Roddy and MJF go to opposite ends, and Roddy is on the apron. MJF storms up, reels Roddy in, but Roddy stops the Heatseeker! MJF runs back in but Roddy TOSSES him! Roddy then WRECKS MJF with a dropkick! Roddy hurries out and he whips MJF into railing! And then he CHOPS!

Roddy lifts MJF up to RAILING BACKBREAKER! The fans fire up with Roddy and he drags MJF up. Roddy puts MJF into the ring, aims from a corner, and he runs up to SICK- NO, MJF dodges! Roddy tumbles, he hurries after MJF, but MJF pops him up to MULE KICK! MJF goes up, mocks Adam Cole, but Roddy YANKS him down for a BACKBREAKER! Both men are down again and the fans fire up! Roddy crawls to MJF, covers, TWO! MJF stays in this and the fans rally up again. Roddy rises and he brings MJF up. Roddy reels MJF in but MJF wrenches to go after the arm! Roddy whips MJF to a corner but MJF ELBOWS him away!

MJF goes up and DOUBLE STOMPS the bad arm! MJF then reels Roddy in, hammerlock DDT! Cover, TWO!! Roddy survives and MJF is too tired to throw a fit. Both men slowly rise, but MJF SPITS on Roddy! Roddy SLAPS MJF! And CHOPS! Roddy fires a flurry of forearms and CHPOS, then he blocks a kick. MJF pokes Roddy in the eye! MJF runs while fans boo, but Roddy DROPKICKS MJF! Roddy then trips MJF, has the legs, and has the TEXAS CLOVERLEAF! The fans fire up while MJF endures and crawls around. Roddy drags MJF from the ropes! But Roddy’s bad hand can’t hold on!

MJF is free and he rises up, but Roddy storms over. MJF DECKS Roddy with a fast hand! MJF drags Roddy up again, suplexes, but his back won’t let him finish that! MJF runs up, now Roddy DECKS MJF! The fans fire up as Roddy slowly makes his way to MJF. Roddy drags MJF up, but MJF wrenches and he HEADBUTTS the hand again and again! MJF wrenches to suplex, but Roddy turns it around! END OF HEARTACHE!! Cover, ROPEBREAK!!! MJF survives by a literal foot! Roddy is beside himself but the fans rally up again. Roddy hobbles to ropes, MJF sits up, and Roddy runs back in! But MJF bails out!

The fans boo but Roddy pursues. Roddy drags MJF up off the ground, puts him in the ring, and he hurries to suplex again. MJF cradle counters! TWO, Roddy has the cover, TWO! Roddy swings, MJF ducks and whips, but then Roddy dodges! ENZIGIRI, torture rack, and RACK DROP! Then a fireman’s carry, for a GUTBUSTER DROP! Roddy keeps moving, SICK KICK hits!! The fans fire up and Roddy keeps on MJF! But MJF suplexes for a BRAINBUSTER! Both men are down and the fans are thunderous! The ref checks both men, they’re okay to continue, and Roddy crawls to a cover. TWO, and MJF has the FUJIWARA ARMBAR!

MJF THRASHES the arm, RODDY TAPS!! MJF WINS!!!

Winner: MJF, by submission

MJF grins, and he’ll surely play this off as another “easy dub.” But then MJF decides he isn’t done, and he grabs a chair! MJF grins as he storms back into the ring, and he threatens the ref! The ref backs off, and MJF puts the arm around Roddy’s arm! The fans boo as MJF stands on the steel! MJF runs to STOMP the chair!!! Roddy writhes, but ADAM COLE is here! Cole runs in but MJF runs away! The Undisputed Kingdom is also here, Taven & Bennett check on Roddy’s arm while Cole glares at MJF. Cole vows he will get MJF, that SOB! Kyle O’Reilly rushes out here, too, and he gets mad at Cole!

Kyle says this is what he was talking with Cole about on Wednesday! Kyle didn’t want this obsession to hurt someone else, and it has! Kyle helps Roddy away to the back, but does he have a point? Should Cole have stopped this before it began? Or will Cole make sure it ends with him and MJF?

 

AEW TBS Championship: Mercedes Mone VS Kris Statlander!

The CEO is still NJPW Strong Women’s Champion on top of AEW TBS Champion, but the walls might be closing in. Mone knows she has Strong Style Evolved in a few weeks, but is she taking the Galaxy’s Greatest too easy? Or will the #BornAgainKristen once again be The Face of TBS?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is really the greatest TBS Champion today!

World Tag League 2024 B Block: Shane Haste & Mikey Nicholls VS The Filip Brothers!

The former IWGP Tag Team Champions aren’t feeling as mighty as they should be after losing to Tetsuya Naito & Hiromu Takahashi in the opening round. But can they rise back up mightier than ever? Or will Tome the Taiga & Stevie the Phoenix become apex predators in this tournament?

To keep calm during LIJ’s antics, Yano sits at the center of the ring, cross legged, as if to meditate. But it doesn’t really work as Hiromu walks back up the ramp to stand with Naito. Yano loses his cool, shouts at Naito & Hiromu to hurry up, but LIJ take little steps down the ramp. They make it seem like they’re going fast, and Hiromu even does little circles to take longer.

As for Yano & Oleg, Yano gets the mic to say, “Hey, everyone, my apologies. Sorry to Naito and Hiromu, and to all the fans here because I knew you were supporting Naito. So again, I’m sorry, I didn’t read the room.” The fans applaud, they aren’t really upset. Yano says it’s rare, though, isn’t it? That he’d win in the main event? But Yano vows that whether on accident or on purpose, Yano & Oleg will win the whole tournament! No more need to read the room! This Toru Yano, and this Boltin Oleg, or perhaps “Yano Boltin” for short. They will win the championships!

Oleg takes the mic and thanks everyone for being here tonight. He feels they can definitely win the World Tag League, so thank you very much! The fans cheer, and join in on “YANO BOL-TIN!” Shrug! The Joker & The Rook are looking good now that they’re on the board, but will they make a run at the top?

 

Here are the NEW B Block standings!

Evil & Ren Narita: 2-0, 4 points
Taichi & Taka Michinoku: 1-1, 2 points
Toru Yano & Boltin Oleg: 1-1, 2 points
Tetsuya Naito & Hiromu Takahashi: 1-1, 2 points
Shane Haste & Mikey Nicholls: 1-1, 2 points
Great-O-Khan & Henare: 1-1, 2 points
The Filip Brothers: 1-1, 2 points
Hiroshi Tanahashi & Jado: 0-2, 0 points


My Thoughts:

A great second round for B Block, and that is already quite the traffic jam at 1-1. Great rebound win for TMDK over The Filip Brothers, and of course The House of Torture cheats to stay spotless at 2-0. Great rebound win for Henare & Khan, and I think there’s even a chance we see Tanahashi and Khan feud down the line, maybe putting on a KOPW Championship match while Khan still has it. That’s a small window, though, with 2024 almost over and then it’ll be reset for 2025. And what a great match and great shocker in the main event. Hilarious comedy elements with Yano being so impatient, and yet his team comes out on top.

The eventual Yano & Oleg VS Tanahashi & Jado match is going to be a really important one, because with just seven rounds, another loss could pop the bubble on The Ace’s chances. At the same time, Yano & Oleg are his friends and fellow NEVER Openweight Six Man Champions, there’s some drama in that they could really play up.

My Score: 8.9/10
