PLAY BY PLAY
It’s the Survivor Series Kickoff Show!
Join Charly Caruso, Jerry “The King” Lawler, Booker T, John Bradshaw Layfield and Pete Rosenberg in discussing, analyzing and predicting the action as Raw and SmackDown go head-to-head once again!
Backstage interview with Paul Heyman.
On Talking Smack, he accused WWE of “false advertising,” saying this isn’t Champion VS Champion for Roman VS McIntyre but Champion VS Title Holder. Kayla wants to give him a chance to retract that statement. Is this her flirting? NO, he is not going to retract the statement. he will double down! Roman is THE Champion, “T H E E,” from Raw to SmackDown to NXT to all of sports entertainment.
To Heyman, McIntyre is a prop. McIntyre is the guy to sub in for promotional material. He is a temporary placeholder in Raw’s history, and a babysitter to that belt. Roman makes the championship. Roman brings the Universal Championship honor, prestige and legacy that no other man can. Tonight, the winner of tonight’s match is the Reigns-ing, Defending, Undisputed Universal Heavyweight Champion, Roman… Reigns… Heyman goes into Roman’s private locker room, but will he be completely proven wrong tonight?
Bianca Belair joins the panel.
The EST replaces Rosenberg and JBL says the panel just won. Charly asks what Bianca brings to the table. Bianca says she is so excited to get in there and to again show us why she is The EST. She’s excited to win alongside her friends, Ruby Riott and Liv Morgan, and even with Natalya and even Bayley. But is this just a one night thing? Speaking of Natty, she joins in. And speaking of Bayley, she’s not the captain but neither is Bianca. Bayley is trying to find her relevance again. Well who is the leader, though? Well Natty is, she’s the #BOAT, the Best of All Time. No the first person to qualify should be in charge, and that was Bianca. Natty doesn’t want to be political but there were many reasons why Natty didn’t qualify first.
The experience Natty brings is the most valuable, because she’s had the most matches, the most wins, and the most matches at Survivor Series. She isn’t just the leader, but the BOAT. Oh, but what’s the most famous boat ever? Titanic, for sinking! Okay, thanks, Debbie Downer. The Titanic movie made tons of money! Well the BOAT better not sink tonight. Natty claps at Bianca and Bianca says, “Girl, uh-uh!” The name’s not even cute. Booker says “The Boat” isn’t so bad. Bianca claps back and Charly hopes they keep it civil. Natty claims Team SmackDown is just fine, unlike Team Raw. So long as Bianca behaves. Natty and Bianca head out, will Team SmackDown sink or swim here tonight?
Sami Zayn joins the panel.
He likes the mostly star-studded panel. One of these things is not like the other, *cough* Rosenberg. Sami doesn’t ask for much as a man of principle, and he just wants respect. They respect Sami. Booker likes Sami, he’s top 5 for sure. King asks Sami why his title is more prestigious than Lashley’s. Because the Intercontinental Championship represents all the countries, while the US Championship represents just one, and it’s rather depressing to say. Does Sami have something against the USA? Not the point. Sami is about the people, not the countries. The Intercontinental Championship has a work ethic that is respected by those who are in the working class. Booker says they need to cut away but Sami says that’s them cutting him off! Sami will not be disrespected, and he will win that respect when he beats Lashley tonight. But will he really?
R-Truth joins the panel!
Charly makes sure he knows this isn’t Raw Talk. Truth knows that. He wants to talk WWE celebrating the 30th anniversary of the “no doubt” Hall of Famer. So Truth took it upon himself to make his own tribute to this phenom. Roll tape! Wait, this is from Survivor Series 1990, but it’s the Gobbledy Gooker! “A superstar of superstars! The phenom!” Hall of Fame written all over that! King wants Truth to understand, this is about the Undertaker. That was the same night, but we’re talking about Taker. The undead, not dead on arrival. Well tell him that yourselves. What? Truth calls in GOBBLEDY! He’s still here?! And he does the dance with Truth. Truth almost dropped the action figure of his childhood hero, John Cena, when he saw this. Not that you could see it. But then Akira Tozawa and his ninjas are here! They spook Truth but Gobbledy rolls Truth up! GOBBLEDY WINS!!
Winner: The Gobbledy Gooker, by pinfall (NEW WWE 24/7 Champion)
“Gobble, gobble, baby~!” Gobbledy sounds a lot like Drew Gulak. Either way, the giant man turkey STOMPS Tozawa on his way out! Truth shouts, “When I catch you, I’m making you extra crispy!” And the chase is on! Will Truth get his baby back before Thanksgiving?

Winner: The Miz
The Face of USA finds a way to win for Raw! “Welcome to the big leagues, kid!” Miz wins one for the red brand, but will he be waiting in the shadows during the World VS Universal Champion match?
Baron Corbin talks with Kevin Owens backstage.
Real nice of him to finally show up. He could’ve showed up against The New Day. Is Kevin Team Blue or what? The team is a mess because Jey is a mess, Corbin isn’t going to trust Otis, and Seth Rollins just lost. So it’s really up to Corbin and Kevin to carry this team. So if Kevin works with Corbin, the king can get him opportunities, whatever he wants. So Kevin just has to follow Corbin’s lead? Well he’ll think about it. Oh thought about it. NOPE!
Billie Kay gives Corbin another resume. If he wants someone to help with mind games and strategy, call her because she studied psychology. Corbin’s silence is “No” enough for her. But will Team SmackDown work together well at all?
The best of the best will battle.
Champions take on champions. Stars take on stars. If you want to be the best of the best, you gotta walk the walk, talk the talk, and go against the best. The Boss and the Empress. The Scottish Stud and the Tribal Chief. Being the best means beating the best, even if that means putting aside egos. Tonight, the survivors will win, but there can only be one that lives forever. When it comes to Best of the Best, we honor THE best over the last THIRTY years! One last time, #ThankYouTaker.

Whatever is to come, there is still respect between these men. Will we see this match again down the line?
The SmackDown Women’s Team is arguing.
Bayley has a “Captain” armband but it seems she went and did that on her own. They don’t like that, but they all still agree to putting their hands in. Sorta. Meanwhile, Nia Jax tells Team Raw to NOT tag Lana, no matter what! Will one of these teams be able to hold it together for the sake of the brand?

The Usos talk backstage as Heyman walks over.
Roman follows Heyman out and Jey says his teammates weren’t listening. Roman didn’t ask for excuses. You still lost. Jimmy wants Roman to cut Jey a break. Roman didn’t ask Jimmy to be here. Jimmy says he and Jey should just go. Roman says Jey isn’t going anyway. Jimmy can leave, but Jey will stay. Jey stays, and Roman says Jey lost because he can’t control a team. Jey can’t control a team because they don’t fear him. And they don’t fear Jey because they don’t respect Jey. If they don’t respect Jey, they disrespect Roman. If they don’t respect Roman, they don’t respect the family. And if Jey can’t make them respect the family, then Jey has no place at the table. Roman tells Jey to leave. Go be with Jimmy and get out of the arena. Roman has no time for losers tonight. Heyman closes the door behind them, is Jey truly on the outside looking in?

Drew McIntyre VS Roman Reigns w/ Paul Heyman!
The Scottish Stud made sure to change The Tribal Chief’s plans for this night when he went after Randy Orton one more time for the WWE World Championship. But even after beating The Viper in No Holds Barred, the Universal Champion’s opinion about McIntyre did not change. Roman is the top of the mountain, the head of the table, and THE champion in the WWE, as far as he is concerned. But will McIntyre completely upend everything by proving he is the right guy in the right place at the wrong time for Roman?
The top two champions stare down and raise their belts at each other. Roman nods, seeing McIntyre is not backing down and perhaps respecting that on some level. The belts are put aside, McIntyre takes off his entrance attire, and the bell rings on this battle of alphas!

Roman endures, McIntyre cranks harder on the arm, but Roman reaches to get the ropebreak! McIntyre lets go at 4, and the damage has been done! Heyman is stressing out as McIntyre rests on the apron. Roman bails out the other side and McIntyre comes around the way, only for Roman to SAMOAN DROP him onto the announce desk!
The desk doesn’t give way, so Roman drags McIntyre off just to SAMOAN DROP him again! Now the table falls apart and both men are down in the wreckage!

Roman watches McIntyre rise, he runs back in, but into a kick! McIntyre runs, into a SPEAR!! Cover, TWO!??! And again, no one can believe this! Roman seethes while McIntyre sputters. Roman says this isn’t the McIntyre he’s beaten before.

Winner: Roman Reigns, by submission
The Universal Champion won, but given what it took to win, there is no way the World Champion is just a secondary champion or a “babysitter for a belt!” Of course, Roman notices Jey on the ramp. Jey is celebrating for his family, but how does Roman feel about this? Roman stares Jey in the eye, and Jey is prepared for whatever Roman is going to do or say. Roman brings Jey in for a hug, proud of what his own did for him. Is the family going to rule over all of the WWE at this rate?
Mike Rome presides over the Undertaker’s Final Farewell!
“Please welcome those who are here to pay homage to the Phenom!” First, it’s Shane McMahon! Then, the Big Show, JBL, Jeff Hardy, Mick Foley, The Godfather, the Godwins, Savio Vega, Rikishi, Kevin Nash, Booker T, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair, Triple H, and of course, KANE! A video package plays to recap Taker’s amazing 30 years, from his debut on November 22nd, 1990, to all of his WrestleMania victories, to even Kane’s debut. Casket Matches, Buried Alive, Inferno, his Ministry of Darkness, Brothers of Destruction, and everything in between. The epitome of WrestleMania, the constant refreshing of himself and the longevity that came with it, we are all fortunate for having seen such a true phenom with our own eyes. There will never be another, #ThankYouTaker!
And last but not least, the chairman of WWE, Vince McMahon, is here! “Thirty years. Thirty long, arduous years.” For those three decades, one man, not withstanding hardships and injuries, struck terror into the hearts of his opponents, and entertained the world, from WWF to WWE. “Tonight marks the end of an ear.” The most storied career that will never be duplicated. Tonight, we all say good-bye. They say nothing lasts forever, but that’s not true. Taker’s legacy will live on. So now, the Dead Man of the hour, it is THE UNDERTAKER!! One last time, the fires burn and the lightning strikes. The tesla coils play Undertaker’s theme! And the bell tolls! From the swirling fog and eerie light emerges the familiar silhouette.
One last time, Taker walks up the steps, but for the first time ever, the steps RAISE Taker up! But one last time, Taker enters through the ropes and stands in the center of the ring. After taking a moment to let this moment soak in, Taker has the mic to speak. “For 30 long years, I’ve made that slow walk to this ring, and have laid people to rest time and time again. And now, my time has come. My time has come to let the Undertaker rest… in… peace…!” With a deep, solemn breath, Taker strikes his iconic pose one last time! The spirit of Paul Bearer is here, “Oooh yeees~!” Taker rolls his eyes back into his head one last time, before bowing his head in the dark spotlight. The bell gongs ten times before Taker rises and the other lights come up.
Taker’s music plays and he gives one last throat slash for the thunderstorm! Taker then makes the long walk back up the ramp one last time, and once on stage, he gives one final glance back, before he gives one last raise of his fist to the sky. #ThankYouTaker, for everything.
My Thoughts:
A great event for Survivor Series, even though it went back down to just Raw VS SmackDown. I believe the final tally is 4-3 in favor of Raw. Miz wins the Dual Brand Battle Royal for Raw that didn’t have Cesaro or Big E in it for SmackDown, so clearly Miz is right in saying he is the Face of USA Network and they made WWE give him that win. I think it would’ve made more sense if he lost, since he didn’t even tease a cash-in tonight when he easily could have. Team Raw wins both 5v5 matches, but in very different ways. I did not expect a sweep in the men’s match, but the match was pretty great. Rollins “sacrificing” himself was a surprise, but this has to be how they write him off. I wonder if there are plans on Raw for the team finally uniting and winning this big turning into a bigger story on the way to the Royal Rumble.
On the women’s side, I think we all felt Lana was somehow going to win this for Raw. I don’t think any of us saw it happening because she wasn’t even allowed to participate at a certain point. I almost thought she was going to get eliminated immediately, but that would’ve made it seem like she really was being punished for Miro/Rusev joining AEW. Lana can now hold this over Nia’s head, but I don’t know if it’ll ever really turn in her favor. Can she finally get someone on her side and they’ll be a team and they’ll take the tag titles somehow? Still probably not happening.
Asuka VS Sasha was an incredible match, and with it being very hard to call it, I suppose a quick pin victory like that was for the best. Sasha comes away with a win that she probably needed given Carmella kept jumping her the last few weeks, and she can at least throw that in Carmella’s face for a minute. Asuka on the other hand is in need of challengers anyway, so having her look “vulnerable” will certainly get someone to step up so that she can crush them. The tag team match was also incredible, and I was even more surprised Profits won. That is awesome for Ford and Dawkins, who have already climbed up in the ranks since they are only the second team in WWE history to be Triple Crown winners, and the only ones WWE will talk about since The Revival is FTR and they left.
Truth bringing in Gobbledy Gooker was hilarious, and I love that now Gobbledy is in the 24/7 Championship history. However, I wish they tried to get SmackDown superstars involved, even with quite a few of them already in the battle royal. Even if they wouldn’t keep it by the end of the night, let them be involved! Then with the US VS Intercontinental Champion, I like that the Hurt Business was ringside to counter any and all of Sami’s attempts to cheat Lashley, such as the plan with the crossbar and buckle. And with Sami’s schemes neutralized, of course Lashley wins as this machine of a man.
McIntyre VS Roman was an incredible match and main event. Not nearly as overbooked as I was expecting, but maybe that was for the better. Roman winning because of the cheating and the assist is great stuff for both him and McIntyre. McIntyre isn’t weakened necessarily, but he is in a similar boat to Asuka. He needs challengers to step up, and they might be emboldened to do so because he lost this match. As for Roman, it shows the growing Heel qualities he and Jey have now as he wasn’t upset at all about what Jey did. That combined with how Roman was upset the men’s team “disrespected” Jey and the family, I sense someone on tonight’s team, such as Kevin Owens, will be singled out for the Universal Championship story on the way to Royal Rumble.
And of course, what is there to say about the #FinalFarewell for Taker? The moment itself was definitely phenomenal, but I do question having the legends come out, then just disappear for Vince’s part. Did they edit together Vince saying that? It’d make sense, though, COVID concerns and how he’s very old now. But still, all great stuff in honor of a great man who will go down as perhaps the actual best of the best in WWE history.
My Score: 8.9/10

With just one spot left in the men’s Fatal 4 Way Elimination match, this is the only way any of these men is getting a golden opportunity!

The fans rally as Oasis gut wrenches for a GUT BUSTER! Drake sputters, Oasis covers, TWO! Drake toughs it out and Vanity coaches him up.

Winner: Jackson Drake, by pinfall (advances to the WWE Evolve Championship Fatal 4 Way)
Vanity Project celebrates with #HeartbreakDrake, though they did have a hand in the victory. Will Drake be the true Wild Card of that Fatal 4 Way Elimination match? Or will not even his friends help him survive Edris Enofe, Keanu Carver and “Super” Sean Legacy?
Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont talk backstage.
Ty & Ty are ready for their match tonight against Cappuccino Jones & Jack Cartwheel, but Tyson knows those two are the quickest and most exciting team on Evolve. Tyriek says sure, but they’re not the most explosive, that’s them! It’ll be speed VS power, and they’ll find out that it doesn’t matter how fast you’re going when you run into a brick wall. Cartwheel, Cappuccino, speed only beats power when you apply that pressure, and their pressure will knock you out! Ty & Ty are fired up now, will they bring down the house on Cappuccino & Cartwheel? Or will C & C be able to leap over that High Ryze?
It’s Gal speaks.
The Real-Life Action Figure is poolside as he says, “This is the life of It’s Gal! After my pool and gym routine, the abs are flexing, the quads are quading, the pecs, oh, they’re popping. And now, it’s time to catch some rays. But I can’t fully enjoy my fun in the sun because of this Gal wannabe, Troy Yearwood. Everyone in WWE Evolve says you have the body of an Adonis, the best physique in Evolve. Are they blind? Lemme tell you who has the best physique in Evolve. It’s Gal, it’s Gal, it’s Gal! Standing here at 5% body fat, looking like a million bucks right now.
“So Mr. All ACC hammer throw star, this is your first and final warning. You better stay outta my way, because when you’re in Mint Condition, there is no competition, dummy!” Gal may be 5% body fat but he’s 110% ego. Will he be humbled should he have a run-in with the LFG star?
Jackson Drake speaks.
Apparently the Carolina Reaper has still been in the ring this whole time…? He interrupts Robert Stone & Pete Rosenberg, and says the fans would rather here “Daddy” speak. “Week after week after week, myself, Zayda Steel, Bryce Donovan, Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes prove that the Vanity Project is the hottest thing going on WWE Evolve, in more ways than one!” Fans boo, but Drake says guess what? They’re just getting started! Because Drake will bring that drip to Vanity Project when he wins the WWE Evolve Championship! But wait, here comes Edris Enofe! The fans cheer as the Epitome of Excellence speaks now.
“Mr. Drake, Mr. Drake. Hey, Mr. Drake, Mr. Drake, Mr. Drake. I just find it funny… Actually, I find it hilarious that you can stand there and call yourself the hottest thing going on Evolve, especially when you got a guy like me, the EOE, the Epitome of Excellence, standing here right now!” The fans cheer on “E O E! E O E!” and Drake mockingly applauds. Edris says next week, that is a moment he has been waiting for, for a very, very long time. The fans know that he has worked his ass off, grinding for four years, to let this slip through his fingers! So if Drake wants that title, well bad news. Drake goes home empty handed, as that title goes around the waist of Edris Enofe!
Wait, here comes “Super Sean!” Sean Legacy has his own mic to say okay, okay. A couple weeks ago, Vanity Project wanted Lexis King to make sure Legacy didn’t compete in the Fatal 4 Way. And Legacy will make no excuses, Lexis King was the better man that night. But as you can see, Legacy is still standing! The fans cheer that, and Legacy joins the others in the ring. Legacy tells Edris that he respects the journey, and Edris coming back from injury. Four YEARS of grind, but Legacy has been at it for EIGHT! Legacy has been working his way up the food chain to create his legacy. And that starts now!
Because next week, the person standing with THE WWE Evolve Championship above his head will be Legacy. Because he will show the WWE Universe why Sean Legacy will always be SUPER! Drake says yeah, yeah, well, he’s super tired of listening to them. Drake says neither of them are qualified, there is nobody in this match qualified like Drake. Drake drops the mic, exits the ring, but bumps into Keanu Carver! Drake forgot about the big man, and then he finds himself surrounded! Edris ROCKS Drake, Legacy ROCKS Drake, and Keanu DECKS Drake! Refs rush out to stop it here, but all four men will be let loose next week! Who will be the last one standing with the title?
Backstage interview with Cappuccino Jones & Jack Cartwheel.
Chuey Martinez is with the most energetic team in Evolve, and says tonight, they go up against a pair of powerhouses. How will they handle that beef? Jones says the pot is hot and extra large. But you can’t hit what you can’t catch. Jack says it is their speed against Ty & Ty’s power. But it is simple physics of momentum and leverage. They can stick ‘n’ move! They’ve got a triple shot of energy ready to hit Tyriek & Tyson in the mouth. Cappuccino & Cartwheel are gonna turn Evolve on its head! They are fired up now and head out, will they be able to blow right past the High Ryze? Or will they get blown up by that TNT?
Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont VS Cappuccino Jones & Jack Cartwheel!
Evolve returns as the teams make their entrance. The teams sort out and Cartwheel starts against Tyriek. Tyriek pokes fun at Jack’s height, then they tie up. Tyriek shoves Jack down, but Jack kips back up! The fans cheer, the two tie up again, and Tyriek shoves, but Jack cartwheels through! Jack then cartwheels to dodge and Tyriek hits buckles! Jack RAMS shoulders again and again, but Tyriek ROCKS Jack! Tyriek tags Tyson, then feeds Jack to the SIDEWALK SLAM! Tyson taunts Cappuccino, runs up on Jack, but Jack dodges! Tyson hits buckles and Jack headlocks. Tyson powers out, Jones tags in! Jack trips Tyson and Jones basement DROPKICKS!
Cappuccino & Cartwheel DOUBLE LARIAT Tyson out of the ring! Then they build speed, but Wes Lee is here! He gets his guys together to talk this out. Ty & Ty refocus and go back to the ring. Tyriek distracts so Tyson can CLOBBER Cappuccino Jones! Tyson rains down fists, and he tags in Tyriek. Feed to the scoop and the SLAM! Tyriek talks smack on Jack, stomps Jones down, then stands on him! Tyrike pulls Jones’ hair, Wes likes what he sees, but the ref reprimands. The fans rally for Jones as Tyriek lets off. Jones rises to fire hands! Tyriek KNEES low, whips him to the corner, and he RAMS Jones!
Tyson tags in, he runs up, and he SPLASHES Jones! The fans boo but Tyriek tags back in. Tyriek takes off his belt, runs up, but Jones dodges! Tyriek POSTS himself and knocks Tyson down at the same time! Jones rolls Tyriek up, TWO!! ENZIGIRI! Tyriek sputters, Jones crawls, and the fans rally up! Tyriek swings, misses, hot tag to Jack! Jack dodges Tyriek, BLASTS Tyson, then cartwheels to LARIAT! And tilt-o-whirl RANA! Handspring and BACK ELBOW! Jack reels Tyriek in, KICKS Tyson and TORNADO DDTS in one go! Jack then handsprings to FOSBURY FLOP! Down goes Tyson, and Jack hurries up top!
Wes is annoyed as Jack FLYING CARTWHEELS! Cover, Tyson breaks it! Jones is up and he ROCKS Tyson! Jack SUPERKICKS Tyson, then he and Jones DOUBLE DROPKICK! Tyson flops out, Tyriek runs up, and Jack rolls Jones out of the way! The BOOT hits Jack! Tyson drags Jones out of the ring to UPPERCUT! Tyriek facelocks Jack, tags Tyson, and then the SLAM DUNK SAIDO!! Cover, Ty & Ty win!
Winners: Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont, by pinfall
It went down just as they said, T&T blows up C&C! Will NXT and Evolve soon belong to the High Ryze?
Stevie Turner signs a new star to the roster!
The Prime Minister assures the new recruit that Evolve is the most exciting, fastest growing brand. She welcomes Jin Tala to the already deep women’s roster. Jin thanks Stevie for this opportunity, and is ready to shake up the women’s division. Stevie says she looks forward to it. Jin signs on the dotted line, but now Carlee Bright walks in. Carlee heard Stevie wanted to meet with her, and Stevie says yes. We all know Carlee is Kendal’s best friend, but tonight, there needs to be on one else ringside. This Fatal 4 Way has to be just about the four in the match.
Carlee says she gets it, that is absolutely fair. Stevie also helps make introductions between Carlee and Jin, and says they will be opponents on next week’s episode. Carlee and Jin shake hands, and Carlee says, “May the best woman win.” Will Jin prove she’s ready to Evolve?
Natalya is backstage!
Evolve Media catches up with the Queen of Harts, and asks what The BOAT is doing here. Natty says she’s going to be not only watching tonight’s main event title match, but she will have the honor of presenting the WWE Women’s Evolve Championship to the winner. It is a very cool moment, she is excited to be here, this is going to be a wonderful night. Natty heads out, who will she have the honor of handing the title to?
High Ryze regroups backstage.
Wes says that is what he is talking about! Tyriek says that’s what they told everyone earlier! Power beats speed, every time! Tyson says you gotta admit, though. Jones & Jack are fast. But when you train with the fastest, those boys don’t stand a chance. Wes says they’re making him blush. But his boys have been making a ruckus here on Evolve, so he had to turn up and see what all the noise was about. Jones & Cartwheel have potential. But potential doesn’t measure up here. Tyson says they haven’t heard the last of Jones & Cartwheel, but Wes says that’s fine, they can come see him about it. The High Ryze is feeling good, but will Wes put a punctuation on what we saw tonight?
WWE Women’s Evolve Championship Fatal 4 Way Elimination Match: Kali Armstrong VS Kendal Grey VS Wendy Choo VS Kylie Rae!
This is the moment of truth! Three months ago, WWE brought Evolve into the fold, and this new generation of superstars began their journey. These four standouts now stand across from each other, and only the last one left will become a champion! Will it be The Difference Maker, Grappler Grey, Wicked Wendy, or Smiley Kylie that is crowned the INAUGURAL WWE Evolve Women’s Champion?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who has their moment!
The bell rings and the fans rally. Kali RAMS Kendal, Kylie and Wendy brawl, and Kendal comes back to TACKLE Kali! Kylie and Wendy scrap all the way to the outside while Kendal fires shots on Kali in the corner. Kali shoves Kendal, CLOBBERS Kendal, then builds speed, but Wendy trips her up! Wendy drags Kali out, now Kali brawls with Wendy and Kylie, but Kendal builds speed! Kendal DIVES onto all three! The fans fire up and Kendal shoves Kylie into the ring. Kendal KNEES Kylie down, covers, TWO! Kali is back and ROCKS Kendal! Kali BOOTS Kylie, whips Kendal, but Kendal goes up! Kylie ROCKS Kali and Kendal CROSSBODIES onto Kylie! Cover, TWO!
The fans rally, Kali DOUBLE LARIATS Kylie & Kendal! Kali drags Kylie up to kick low and back suplex! Kali ROCKS Kendal, and gives her a back suplex, only for Kendal to land out! Kendal waistlocks Kali, Wendy waistlocks Kylie, they RAM Kendal and Kylie into each other! Stereo O’Conner Rolls! The ref counts both, TWO! Kendal CROSSBODIES Wendy! Cover, TWO! Kylie covers Wendy, TWO! Kali covers Wendy, TWO! Wendy LARIATS Kendal! Wendy snarls, Kylie & Kali double kick and double suplex! Wendy DOUBLE CRADLES! TWO!! Kali & Kylie escape, Kendal ROCKS Wendy! Kali BOOTS Wendy! Kylie DECKS Wendy!
Wendy just rises and the fans go nuts! Wendy fires off hands on everybody! Wendy cravats Kali and Kylie, BOOTS Kendal, and uses that to DOUBLE SLICED BREAD! The fans fire up and Wendy runs in at Kendal! Handspring FOREARM! GAMANGIRI for Kali! But Kylie puts Wendy on the apron! Wendy UPPERCUTS Kylie, goes up, and CROSSBODIES! Kylie gets free, Kendal CLOBBERS Wendy! KALI CONNECTION!! Wendy still rises?! Kylie SUPERKICKS her down! Cover, Kylie ELIMINATES Wendy!! A team effort gives Kylie a semblance of revenge and the fans cheer. Kylie sees the others rising up, and Evolve goes to break.
Evolve returns and Kali has Kendal in a corner for stomps! The ref counts, Kali lets off, and she runs up on Kylie. Kylie puts her in the corner, SPLASHES, then sits Kali down. Kylie runs and CANNONBALLS! Kylie keeps moving and CANNONBALLS Kendal! The fans rally, Kylie covers, TWO! Kendal toughs it out but Kylie hurries to bring her in. Kali runs up, Kylie dodges, and then she and Kendal double mule kick! They work together, but Kali blocks the double suplex to DOUBLE SUPLEX! The fans fire up and Kali is on Kylie. Kali puts her in a corner, then puts Kendal in another. Kali RAMS Kendal, RAMS Kylie, but then Kendal KNEES Kali!
Kali still comes back but Kendal BOOTS her down! Kendal climbs but Kylie CLUBS Kendal! Kylie climbs up, Kendal fights the suplex, but Kali Electric Chair Lifts! Kylie victory rolls it, TWO! Kendal QUEBRADAS! Double cover, TWO!! Kylie and Kali survives, but Kendal waits in them. Kendal rallies with a LARIAT for Kali and an ELBOW for Kylie! Fireman’s carry takeover after takeover, and Kendal whips Kylie. Kylie reveres but Kendal goes up to FLYING SHOULDER! Kali is up, Kendal dodges, OVERHEAD BELLY2BELLY! The fans fire up, the straps come down, and Kendal wrenches Kali to the ARMBAR TAKEDOWN!
The fans fire up as Kali endures! Kali clasps hands, but Kendal pries those apart! Kylie ghost pins Kendal, AND ELIMINATES HER!! Everyone is shocked, even Kylie! But now it comes down to the veteran from the indies and the rising star from Inglewood! Kylie covers, TWO, but she rains down fists! Kylie covers, TWO! Kylie stomps away on Kali, covers again, TWO! Kali is still in this but Kylie roars! Kylie storms up but Kali fires body shots. Kali kicks low, reels Kylie in, and Kali suplexes, but Kylie slips free! SOBAT, Kylie runs, CRUCIFIX DRIVER!

Kylie has Kali down and the fans are thunderous! Kali fights around, reaches out, and she powers up! Kali fireman’s carries and the fans cheer!

Kylie is up, Kali scoops her again, POWERSLAM! The fans rally up and Kali roars! Kali builds speed, for the KALI CONNECTION!!! Kali covers, KALI WINS!
Winner: Kali Armstrong, by pinfall (INAUGURAL WWE Evolve Women’s Champion)
The Difference Maker promised everyone that her name would go down in the history books, and that promise has been fulfilled! Natalya brings the belt to Kali, but Kali kinda snatches it away with some attitude. Kali wants to be an inspiration but she’s got a bit of an ego, will she simply just get hers #StraightLikeThat and leave everyone else in the dust?
My Thoughts:
A great Evolve here, even with expected outcomes. I will say they surprised me by making the final two Kali and Kylie, not Kali and Kendal, who have had their rivalry going since episode one. But perhaps Kendal will be Kali’s first challenger to really add to the feud. Kylie and Wendy also aren’t done, even with Kylie pinning Wendy to eliminate her. In fact, that’s wild that Kylie did the work of eliminating the others for Kali to win out… But at the same time, Kylie and Wendy can feud, maybe name the winner of the blowoff a contender, as well.
Very good tag match stuff with The High Ryze VS Cappuccino & Cartwheel, and I like Wes showing up to support his guys. Wes VS Cartwheel will be awesome stuff, as well as Wes VS Cappuccino, and I suppose a third man might present himself so that we get a Six Man Tag for the full High Ryze faction to be in action together. Good promo from It’s Gal, and obviously a match of Gal VS Yearwood is coming. Gal is definitely the Heel who gets humbled, so Yearwood will get a great win. And good seeing more LFG stars signing up with Evolve, Jin Tala (Leigh Laurel from LFG) will have a good match with Carlee and certainly a good win.
Very good Triple Threat from Drake, Dorado and Oasis, and I figured Drake would win to join the Fatal 4 Way. Vanity Project needs somebody in that match if they’re to start dominating Evolve like they claim. But at the same time, very fitting that Drake gets humbled a bit by the other three contenders. That Fatal 4 is a bit harder to read, but Edris sadly feels like the fourth likely. His recovery and return makes a great story, but it just seems too soon for him to grab that title. Meanwhile, Keanu is just a beast, he’d be a fitting parallel to Kali as she’s a powerhouse of a first champion. And Super Sean has a North American Championship match, it’d be fitting to make it Champion VS Champion.
My Score: 8.8/10

Tony Schiavone is in the ring!
He welcomes us to Dynamite tonight in El Paso, and he welcomes out the 2025 Men’s Owen Hart Cup winner, Hangman Adam Page! The fans fire up as The Blackhat Cowboy walks out, King of Harts belt around his waist, and Schiavone brings up the great response from the fans. Hangman won The Owen in a dramatic classic on Sunday. The fans cheer, “You Deserve It!” as Hangman takes the mic. Hangman says, “Triumph. Triumph in life is fleeting, it’s momentary. You’re on top of the world for the night, and you wake up in the morning, and the moment you realize has passed you. But so is defeat.
“And in the past two years, and if I’m completely honest with myself, in the past three years, that is something that I let myself lose sight of. Because what matters is not the win, it is not the loss, it is what you decide to do with it that matters!” The fans cheer that! Hangman says at Double or nothing, two men entered the ring, and they both knew one would leave defeated. So before Hangman continues, he will say this to Will Ospreay. “Thank you. Thank you for the fight of my life! Thank you for reminding me why I decided to do this in the first place! And thank you for dispelling any notion that i had that you could not be the type of man to carry this company forward, because you can be!”
The fans cheer and chant for “Ospreay! Ospreay!” Hangman then says, while one tasted defeat, the other would taste victory. But he cannot relish in it! This moment is temporary and fleeting. Hangman will not hold this title, carry it or defend it. There will be another Owen Hart Cup, there will be another King of Harts. For now, Hangman returns this belt to AEW. Schiavone takes custody of the belt, and Hangman says he could stay out here all night and tell you how much this all truly means to him. But now, he must look forward to the one thing that for him, this has always been about: THE AEW World Championship!
The fans cheer that, and Hangman says that title has been the prize, the accomplishment, and the responsibility he has chased from the very moment we saw these three letters together for the first time. The fans chant “A E DUB! A E DUB!” Hangman says for seven MONTHS, that title has been hidden from the world, locked away in a briefcase. The fans boo, but Hangman says to him, that title was to be a shining light! A beacon to show the world what these three letters meant! It was about competition! About creativity! Compassion! Passion! And human dignity with which we all treat each other! That is what this is about!
The fans cheer more, and Hangman says on his first day in AEW, he told all of us, both here tonight and watching at home, that while he was here, we would be his boss. Tonight, he makes a promise. In seven weeks, here in Texas, Hangman will win the AEW World Championship! He will free it from the briefcase! He will hold it above his head for all the world to see! He will carry it and defend it with every ounce of his being, and that is a promise he will keep! But then “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” Hangman is stunned, but here comes The Realest! Swerve steps into the ring to stare Hangman down, and Schiavone steps aside.
Swerve says, “I bet you wanna know why I’m here. So allow me to educate you and the fine people of El Paso, Texas why I’m here.” Swerve signals to the tron, and we flashback to April 9th of this year. Nick Jackson was explaining why The Young Bucks went and cost Swerve Strickland the AEW World Championship. They did it for their “good friend,” Hangman Page! Hangman wanted this! Swerve could not be world champion again, and The Bucks did that for him! They do not forget who their friends are! They love him, and they know he loves them. The fans boo and Swerve says he was looking at the same opportunity Hangman conveniently has now.
At Dynasty, the main event, Swerve had Moxley, he had the match won! And then so conveniently, The Bucks show up, who Swerve hadn’t bothered with since Blood & Guts, and they cost Swerve. But y’know who else was in the ring that night? Hangman Page. It is so funny how Hangman has his path to the title off Swerve’s loss. Swerve calls collusion! Hangman wants to make promises to the people of Texas? Let’s talk about a promise Hangman made. Hangman told Swerve to his face, in front of the world, that Hangman would never let Swerve be AEW World Champion again.
So Swerve is here now, staring Hangman down man to man, and he will ask Hangman, so don’t lie to him. Did Hangman do this? The fans chant “Tell The Truth! Tell The Truth!” Hangman says, “Well, dumbass… At Dynasty, I locked my eyes on you. Then I locked my eyes on Jon Moxley. And for one God forsaken second, I even thought about helping you. Swerve, if I had wanted to cost you that match, I would have done it myself to your face, because I have done it before.” The fans are torn, but Swerve says, “Sounds good, but you’re still full of sh*t.” The two jaw at each other while the fans rally up, but here comes Ospreay!
The fans cheer as the Aerial Assassin makes his way to the ring, and he has Swerve and Hangman back up. The fans are losing their minds seeing all three guys together. Ospreay borrows Swerve’s mic, and he looks to Hangman. The fans chant “BRUV! BRUV!” Ospreay then looks to Swerve, and Ospreay says he hates getting involved in Swerve’s business. Swerve has looked after Ospreay since he was 20 years old, he’s like a big brother. “But you’re wrong about him.” Ospreay defends Hangman, saying you learn a lot about someone getting in the ring with them when the stakes are high. And stakes couldn’t get any higher on Sunday.
On Sunday, Ospreay left it all in the ring with Hangman, and he has never felt more defeated in his entire life. Hangman had an important decision to make. He walked up the ramp, turned back, picked Ospreay up, and he shook Ospreay’s hand like a man. Ospreay looked in Hangman’s eyes, and he could see that Hangman cares about AEW. It is funny, because Ospreay had that same feeling when he lost to Swerve last year and then did the same thing. Swerve picked Ospreay up. Look around. The fans cheer, and Ospreay tells them both, “People are starting to believe in us again. I hate saying this to you, because I love you… But it is not you. I thought it was me, and it’s not me. It’s HIM!”
The fans cheer, and Ospreay wants Swerve to look at him. They have one shot at this. And they can make this easier on Hangman if they all work together. Swerve, Ospreay, Hangman- Swerve SLAPS the mic down! Ospreay wants Swerve to calm it down but Swerve says he will never work with Hangman, never trust Hangman, and never forgive Hangman! Swerve storms off and Ospreay is disappointed. The fans boo, but Ospreay tells Hangman to let that go. Hangman says he will work with Ospreay, but he will not work with Swerve either. Hangman storms off now, but will these bitter enemies ever realize this is bigger than them?
The Death Riders arrive.
Claudio parks the truck, and everybody spills out of the back. Moxley leads the way for Marina Shafir, Wheeler Yuta, and even Gabe Kidd. Moxley says, “Welcome to Dynamite.” They step into the building, find their way to the crowd, and they’re ready to redeem themselves from losing Anarchy in the Arena. But will they tear up Swerve’s allies to send a message? Or will this conglomeration come out on top?

The Hurt Syndicate speaks.
MVP says, “Tonight was not just a momentous occasion, it was a historical occasion, because two things happened tonight. This was the fifth consecutive, successful title defense of the AEW Tag Team Championships, and the debut of the young genius, Maxwell Jacob Friedman, as a full-fledged member of the Hurt Syndicate.” MJF says, “Bobby & Shelton are the most dominate tag team in the world today. Think of any top tag team in this sport, anyone, they’d beat ’em clean, easy. These belts ain’t going nowhere. Now that I am in the Hurt Syndicate, I am gonna make sure of that. And the Syndicate, we roll together, so we’re all collectively going to make sure we’re all strapped in gold.
“As far as my Triple B goes, my Big Beautiful Belt, my AEW World title is concerned, it will soon be around my waist. And if you find yourself in between the Hurt Syndicate and our goals, don’t be surprised if you wake up face down in a pool of your own piss and blood. But hey, man, when it comes to the Syndicate, it ain’t personal. It’s just business.” They all fist bump, but who will be next to step up and get stepped on?
Megan Bayne & Penelope Ford speak.
The Superbad Girl says Anna Jay & Harley Cameron had to cheat to beat them on Sunday. Tonight, it is NO DISQUALIFICATIONS, just like Anna & Harley have always wanted. The Megasus says that means they are her next sacrifice. Will the path of destruction only be more destructive now that Megan doesn’t have to hold back?
Ricochet speaks.
The One & Only says, “I had told that everybody after Double or Nothing, after I had laid wasted to Mark Briscoe, I would continue my quest for gold. A quest that I have been on since day one here in AEW. But I stopped, and I take a second, and I look around AEW, and I get the lay of the land, and I start to see the landscape for what it actually is. I see the Death Riders, I see The Opps, I see the Don Callis Family, I see the Hurt Syndicate, and I think to myself… Ricochet needs a group. Ricochet needs a crew. Ricochet needs some loyal subjects that will follow and help him on his quest for gold.
“And once I do, once I find the perfect crew, then I will continue to show everybody why Ricochet is simply Outta This World. AHA~!”

Alexander endures, and he pries the grip open! ELBOW BREAKER! APRON GERMAN SUPLEX!! Both men fall to the floor and Callis says they might need to stop this. The fans lose their minds, and a standing count begins.
Alexander stands at 3 of 10, and he brings Brody over to make him take a seat. Alexander CHOPS, then he mocks the barking! The fans boo instead, but Alexander grins and runs in, but Brody BOOTS him! Brody makes Alexander sit down, CHOPS him, and now the fans bark with Brody! Brody runs up, CROSSBODY against the railing! The fans rally for Brody as he brings Alexander up and into the ring.

Winner: Brody King, by pinfall (advances to the AEW International Championship match)
The Don Callis Family had two chances tonight, failed them both, and now Brody heads for Colorado and Fyter Fest. Will The King of Death end the reign of The Best Bout Machine? Who else will join Brody and Kenny Omega in the Mile High City?
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!
On top of the other two International Championship qualifiers, Claudio VS Komander and Hechicero VS Mascara Dorada, we will have Mina Shirakawa VS Skye Blue! Will the Fighting Gravure Idol stay strong in the wake of losing at Double or Nothing? Plus, after the confrontation during the TNT Championship match, Paragon battles RPG Vice, but with some added names to the mix! RPG Vice bring in NEVER Openweight Champion, Konosuke Takeshita, while Roddy & Kyle conglomerate with NJPW Strong Openweight Champion, Tomohiro Ishii! Could this Six Man Tag open some doors to more golden opportunities?
Kyle Fletcher speaks.
The Protostar does not know whose call that was, whether it was Callis or Alexander, but he doesn’t care, because he does NOT need help out there, and certainly not to beat Adam Cole! He should be standing here as the NEW TNT Champion! But speaking of Cole, he comes running in and the two start throwing hands! Kyle has a GUILLOTINE FACELOCK! Security rushes out, separates the two, and Cole says Kyle is a dead man! Cole knows he had Kyle beat, but when and where will these two put the claims to rest?
Mercedes Mone heads to the ring!
The CEO struts her way out, carrying all her belts, the Owen Hart Cup on display. Mone grabs a mic and says, “El Pasooooo~! I now stand before you not only as the greatest TBS & Rev-Pro Champion of all time… But as the greatest winner of the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament!” The fans are torn, but Mone says the legends, Owen Hart and her hero, Eddie Guerrero… The fans cheer for El Paso’s own, the late, great Latino Heat, and Mone says they do NOT compare to the greatness of Mone! That is why she is the CEO of AEW! But wait! Timeless Toni Storm makes her way out here! This face-to-face is now official as the AEW Women’s World Champion steps into the ring.
The fans cheer for Toni, and the two champions eye each other while Toni gets herself a mic. Toni kicks off the shoes and sets her belt down on the mat. Mone says, “Toni, darling, we finally meet.” The fans applaud that, and Mone says she knows these AEW fans are so sick of the black ‘n’ white. They want a champion full of color! The fans boo that, but Toni says, “Hello, Mercedes. I have waited so long for you. 441 days ago, you arrived in AEW on a show named after you. And since then, you’ve won titles, you’ve made history, and you’ve remained undefeated. But you have never once spoke to me. You have never once looked at me.
“You said that you’ve been watching me since before you even came here. You told Antony Khan that this was the one match you wanted to have. So, darling, what took you so long?” The fans cheer, and Mone says back, “What took me so long? Patience, darling, patience.” The fans boo, but Mone says this isn’t about Toni, this is about Mone and her legacy. And you think she’s going to go around backstage shaking just anybody’s hand? When Mone is the Beyonce of Women’s Wrestling? You gotta be kidding! The fans boo but Mone asks Toni, “Do you not know who I am? I am the standard, I am the conversation, I am the blueprint, I AM the revolution!”
Fans are torn, but Toni smirks as there are those who chant, “No, You’re Not! No, You’re Not!” Toni says she is the Toni Storm of Pro-Wrestling, and she swears to an unknown God that you have NEVER met anyone like her! The fans cheer that! Mone says yes, that’s right. This Toni, this “shy, nervous Toni Storm that I met ten years ago,” is very different. But so is Mone. Mone is not just a Boss, she is a CEO. She has beaten the very best from all over the world, from Mexico to Japan to England. And now at All In: Texas, Mone is bringing it home. We will have THE greatest women’s match of all time! Fans like the sound of that.
Toni says they have so many similarities. They both started so young, struggled on the indies, found success, were given trophies and flowers, and when those weren’t enough, they left it all behind to follow their hearts. And in AEW, they became exactly who they are meant to be! The fans cheer that! Mone nods, and Toni continues: There is one glaring difference. While Mone wants all the titles, Toni needs only one. Toni has lived for this title, she has cried for this title, she has bled for this title, and she has DIED for this title! The fans chant, “She’s Our Champion! Toni! Toni!” Mone is annoyed, but Toni keeps going.
“So if you want to ride the Money Train through the Toni Tunnel, I just hope you can get deep enough.” The fans cheer that! Mone says not even Toni’s hips are wide enough for the Money Train! Toni says 45 days form now, they will meet again in Texas. And somewhere in the world, a little girl with big dreams will be watching. She will say, “Holy S*IT, these b*tches are crazy!” And then, that little girl will find out who the better woman is! Toni sincerely believes Mone is the greatest of all time. But unfortunately for Mone, Toni happens to be TIMELESS~! The fans cheer that, and Mone scowls.
Mone tells Toni that Toni may call herself timeless, but what she deserves is for her time to come an end! Mone will see Toni at All In! Toni says, “See you at All In, darling.” The fans fire up as Mone puts her other belts aside to offer a handshake. Toin smiles and accepts. Then they bring each other in to stare down. Toni smells Mone, and then kisses Mone on the hand. Mone reels Toni in for a Gory Especial! Toni fights out to reel Mone in! Mone scrambles free of the driver, and the fans fire up! That was just a taste of what’s to come, but who will taste sweet victory when these two battle it out in Globe Life Field?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite to follow Double or Nothing while building to Fyter Fest and All In. Excalibur said himself that tonight paralleled Double or Nothing by bookending things with the Owen Hart Cup stories. Great opening promo from Hangman, Swerve and Ospreay. Swerve did have a good point of asking if Hangman was in cahoots with The Bucks, but we also know that’s not the case. And of course Swerve and Hangman will be at odds during this whole All In build. But just as likely, we will get a great “Avengers working together” kind of moment to finally take out the Death Riders and get that title off Moxley.
Great closing promo from Toni and Mone, with a good reference back to their time in WWE. I’m still hoping for them to put all the belts on the line so that they are truly going all in. But the tease of someone taking a finisher to the belt was good stuff. 45 days of build, who knows what else we get, but there’s also no guarantee that Mone keeps the TBS Championship. It’d be wild if someone took that title from her on the way, but it could be a point of pressure that Mone has to defend her other belts while Toni only has to worry about one.
Good debut for Thekla tonight, it was very in line with a Malakai/Aleister Black debut. Hayter seems to automatically be the woman who faces returning and debuting wrestlers and that’s not a bad spot, but it would be nice if she got to do title stuff. Great women’s tag match, and kudos to Harley fighting through a broken nose. But in the end, the Heels winning made sense when they lost at Double or Nothing. There’s talk of tag titles coming, but I don’t have faith in that when TK’s pacing of the women’s division still hasn’t improved. The current example is the poor planning he has with the ROH Women’s Pure Championship.
RIP the Frat House, their ceiling is ROH after getting crushed by The Opps. A little surprised we didn’t get Hook showing up or having a promo, but maybe that happens for Collision. The Mixed Six Tag was great stuff, and throwing Speedball in there was a little surprising until it was clear the Death Riders were winning that. Good promo from Hurt Syndicate, but every time MJF talks about “his” world title, it feels like Lashley wants to roll his eyes or something, because duh, why wouldn’t he and Shelton want their own shots at that title? If Moxley does lose at All In, and MJF goes after Hangman, you can bet MJF and Lashley butt heads again over who really gets the title match.
Good promo from Ricochet, but I wonder… Ricochet wants a crew, there’s a duo named CRU… Is Ricochet going to lead Lio & Action as a trio? And if it isn’t CRU, who would fall in line behind Ricochet? Unless that’s the point of his next story arc: failing to make a faction because he’s that insufferable. And great Don Callis Family stuff tonight. Cole VS Kyle was great, good move for Paragon to go after them, and that Six Man Tag on Collision will be fun. Alexander running out there really was confusing, not just kayfabe, but maybe they want to give Kyle an out. Kyle is great as a wrestler and a personality, fans surely will cheer for him over the rest of Callis Family, but we’ll wait and see how Cole VS Kyle 2 goes.
Alexander VS Brody was a great main event match, with great story of going after Brody’s hand. Alexander getting busted open hard way from perhaps that top rope stuff did add something. And honestly, I’m pleasantly surprised by Brody winning. Brody and Omega alone is great, but then it’ll surely be Claudio over Komander, and now Hechicero over Mascara Dorada to keep the two Faces and two Heels ratio.
My Score: 8.9/10
