Jericho shouts and tells them to “stop this sh*t!” Jericho has had enough of the infighting! This is not what they talked about! Jericho says everyone has seven days to think this through. Then there will be an ultimatum. Either they ALL work together as a team, or the Inner Circle… BREAKS UP FOREVER! Seven days, that’s it! Will everyone fall in line behind Le Champion? Or will the Inner Circle just fall apart?
Backstage interview with The Young Bucks!
Alex Marvez is with Matt and Nick Jackson, and it has been announced that they will take on The Hybrid2 next week! Nick asks if Marvez remembers them superkicking him in the face. He does. Matt remembers, too. And Matt remembers Full Gear, facing FTR in one of the best tag team matches ever, and then winning the AEW World Tag Team Championships. The people are saying the Bucks are the best in the business. That made the Bucks want to be fighting champions, and they’re facing TH2 next week!
Now, TH2, you guys don’t have a record worthy of the tag titles, but if they happen to beat the Bucks, then they’ll get that shot. But a different team walks in, it’s The Acclaimed! Anthony Bowens takes the mic from Marvez so he and Max Caster can talk to the Bucks. They’re not sure if the Bucks read the memo, but Bowens and Caster, the Acclaimed, have arrived. And they have something to say about their “new book.” Bowens contains his laughter before telling Caster to hit it! “Yo, the Young Bucks are a couple a dumb punks on the cover of your book, looking at each other’s junk. It probably got moved to the adult section. Can’t tell through your tights, did y’all have erections?
“I’m just saying that it’s strange, y’all two are brothers looking at each other’s thangs. We’ll put you on the shelf, just to make a name. I’m Max, that’s Anthony, we are The Acclaimed.” Matt asks if someone else has already done this gimmick. Not like Max did. And look behind you! TH2 bust in and take down the Bucks! WORLD STAR~! Jack Evans trashes Nick literally, and then Angelico stomps Matt into his leg lock! But SCU barge in, they have no love lost for TH2! TH2 bail, with the Acclaimed not too far behind! Will the Bucks make sure Evans and Angelico are the ones getting dumped like garbage next week? Will the Acclaimed get a scratch on their record soon enough?
Britt Baker w/ Rebel VS Leyla Hirsch!
The Dentist has been having fun on her new AEW Dark Talk Show, The Waiting Room, but now it’s time to get serious. In fact, it’s time to get LEGIT against a real wrestling standout!

Cody Rhodes w/ Arn Anderson & Darby Allin VS Ricky Starks & “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs w/ Team Taz!
This has been brewing for a long time. Team Taz has hated Darby Allin ever since the #Relentless rejected Taz’s teachings.

What will Sting do now that he is in AEW?
AEW has a lot set up for next week!
Not only will MJF and Orange Cassidy face off for that very valuable Dynamite Diamond Ring, and not only will the Young Bucks give The Hybrid2 their (non-title) opportunity to prove themselves, but Dustin Rhodes will take on The Dark Order’s Number 10, Preston Vance! Will the Natural put this naturally gifted young man to the test? Plus, the Inner Circle’s ultimatum will be answered, united they stand or divided they fall! And FTR make their in-ring return to Dynamite! They look to #FindTheirRedemption, as they take on the newly named “Varsity Blondes,” Griff Garrison and Brian Pillman Jr!
Then, the Living Dead Girl will be back in action! Will Abadon be haunting her way up the ranks in the AEW Women’s Division? And after their confrontation last week, the Murderhawk Monster joins forces with the Lucha Brothers to take on “The Fam!” Eddie Kingston, The Butcher and the Blade may have #CeroMiedo like Penta and Fenix, but will that matter when #EverybodyDies? And, with Sting making his appearance tonight, and his contract being for a good, long time, he will speak to the world next week! What will he have to say about being #AllElite?
Backstage interview with Hikaru Shida!
The Full Metal Warrior was confronted by Abadon, and was reluctant to engage. It’s not that she’s afraid. Abadon wants a title match, fine! She’s just some girl doing zombie cosplay. Shida likes to cosplay, too, just normal- Wait, what was that noise? Can they start over? No, it’s live. Oh, right. Um, well, bye! Shida says she’s not afraid, but it’s hard to deny her reaction just now.
AEW hears from Jon Moxley.
“I touched down in Jacksonville late last night, and I could feel the tension in the air. The calm before the storm. Today feels like a holiday. People showed up early, wearing collars and ties, freshly pressed suits.” There’s a sort of magic in the air. This is the biggest night in AEW Dynamite history, look how far they have come! Just two years ago, AEW was little more than an idea, and Moxley? The whole word was writing him off as “burnt out, washed up.” But Moxley took his hand, reared back, and bitch slapped the entire pro-wrestling world!
Moxley says he and Omega have been on this collision course their entire lives, whether they knew it or not. They’re destined to be rivals as two “diametrically opposed individuals” who want the same thing. They’re the two best wrestlers in the world, and they are two warriors battling on the mountaintop with lightning crashing! “It’s a long way down. The stakes couldn’t have been higher.” Contract: signed. Promos: cut. And tonight, they go out there and make the fans go absolutely bananas. But when there can only be one, who will be THE AEW World Champion?
AEW World Championship: Jon Moxley VS Kenny Omega!
Just as the Maniac said, no more talk, it’s time for action! This is a main event a long time coming, no matter who you ask! First, “he has held 16 different singles titles. He is currently on an AEW 11 match singles winning streak. His 33 wins are more than anyone on the AEW roster. In addition to impressive in-ring feats, he recently launched his very own REDCON supplement line, as well. He weight in tonight at 224 pounds. He was born and raised 1670 miles northwest of Nooorth Carolina~!” This is, KENNY, OOOOMEEEEGAAAA~! But no Sweepettes this time, it wasn’t in the budget nor time allotted.
Then, the champion makes his entrance, with far less rigmarole but just as much of an ovation as he heads down the bleachers. The Fighting Pride of the Eastside of Cincinnati and the Cleaner meet again in the ring after over a year, to determine who is THE best wrestler in the world today!
AEW returns and the belt is raised. Fans are fired up already and the bell rings! Moxley and Omega get face to face, talk just a little smack and then back up. Omega offers a handshake, Moxley leaves him hanging, and the two tie up. They go around, Moxley waistlocks but Omega gets to ropes before the sleeper can lock in! The ref has Moxley back off and Moxley tells Omega it was that close. Fans rally and duel, Moxley and Omega circle, and they tie up again. Omega waistlocks, throws Moxley down, floats around and facelocks. Moxley rolls to get his own facelock but Omega pries free. Omega wristlocks then snapmares to chinlock.
Moxley endures, fights up, pries the hold apart and trips Omega up. Omega gets up fast and fans cheer as the two stand off. They circle again, Moxley and Omega feel out the grapple and Omega headlocks. Moxley endures and powers out, but Omega rams shoulders. Moxley rebounds to run Omega over, then hits a headlock takeover! Omega keeps his shoulders up to roll Moxley to a corner, TWO! Moxley holds on tight, Omega fights up, but Omega puts Moxley in the corner. The ref calls for the break but Omega throws a body shot! Moxley goes to a corner, Omega throws more hands, then CHOPS Moxley in the corner! But Omega’s the one stinging from that.
Omega CHOPS again, and CHOPS again, but Moxley just gets in Omega’s face! Moxley throws forearms, whips Omega, then runs in to clothesline! Moxley keeps moving but Omega RANAS Moxley down! Moxley bails out and Omega has the Terminator drums going. Omega builds speed, Moxley slides in and hits a SCRAPBUSTER! Omega writhe and rolls to the apron and Moxley CLOBBERS him! Moxley goes out after Omega as fans rally and duel. Moxley drags Omega up and throws haymakers and CHOPS! Moxley whips Omega but Omega reverses to send Moxley into railing! Omega drags Moxley up to throw into more railing, then whips again, but Moxley reverses!
Omega stops himself from hitting railing, elbows Moxley back, then hops up, only for Moxley to bring him down! Moxley back suplexes, Omega lands on his feet and kicks Moxley low. Omega reels Moxley in but it’s Moxley who snap suplexes Omega to the floor! Omega writhes, Moxley goes into the ring but comes back out. Moxley drags Omega up and throws him into railing again! Omega clutches his stomach as Moxley puts him into more railing! Omega tumbles up and over, then Moxley goes around to join him! Moxley stalks Omega into the seating area and throws hands as AEW goes picture in picture.
Omega staggers, Moxley follows him and punches him up the stairs. They go to more seating and the CHOPS fly! Moxley CHOPS, Omega CHOPS, repeat! Moxley kicks low, and throws Omega into the front row! Luckily no one was there because of socially distanced seating. Moxley tells fans to hang loose and fire up as he drags Omega off the seats. Moxley drags Omega back to ringside, and then SMACKS his head off an open chair! Moxley knows the ref wants this to be in the ring but Moxley drags Omega around to headlock punch him. Omega CHOPS back! Omega CLUBS Moxley then RAMS him into the apron! And CHOPS him again!
Omega staggers about but Moxley trips him up! Moxley has the legs, to CATAPULT Omega into the post! Omega checks his face while Moxley leaves him behind. The ref has Moxley stay in the ring this time and a count begins. Omega shakes out the stars, but Moxley goes back out anyway! Moxley drags Omega up and puts him in the ring, and he takes his time getting back in. “I love this sh*t!” But then Omega dropkicks his legs between the ropes! And hits a DRAPING DRAGON SCREW!

Omega lets go, watches Moxley hobble, and then wrenches him to CHOP! And he kicks the leg, to then CHOP again!
Omega brings Moxley up again to kick the leg, CHOP the chest, and then fisherman the leg to the fireman’s carry! “You! Can’t! Escape!” But Moxley does escape, and shoves Omega into buckles, and then GERMAN SUPLEXES! Moxley drags Omega up again for another GERMAN! Fans rally as both men slowly stand, and Moxley reels Omega in. Omega blocks the third German, throws elbows, but Moxley spins him to scoop. Omega fights that off but Moxley throws headbutts! Moxley pump handles for the EXPLODER! Cover, TWO! Omega survives but Moxley keeps his cool. Fans fire up with Moxley as he drags Omega back up and reels him in for the X-PLEX! Cover, TWO!
Omega grits his teeth while Moxley clutches the leg, and fans rally as AEW goes picture in picture again. Moxley and Omega crawl to each other and Moxley throws a forearm. Omega returns the forearm, but Moxley throws another one! Omega throws a forearm, Moxley throws a forearm, repeat! They pick up speed, Moxley throws forearms from all sides then adds a headbutt! Moxley gets up, grabs a leg and drags Omega into an STF! Omega endures but Moxley shifts to a full crossface! Moxley cranks back, Omega endures and fights, but then rolls to a cover! TWO, ghost pin, TWO!! Moxley is right on Omega with a chinlock!
Omega endures and gets the ropes, but Moxley lets off at 3. Moxley paces, drags Moxley up and puts him on ropes. Moxley runs in to CHOP, then CHOPS again! Moxley goes to chop again but Omega knees him away! Moxley comes back and CHPOS after all! And CHOPS again! And then runs, but Omega throws Moxley out! Omega dropkicks Moxley away, then builds speed to FLY! Direct hit as AEW returns to single picture! Fans fire up while the ref checks on Moxley, but Omega drags him up and into the ring. Omega has fans fire up and springboards in, into a kick! PARADIGM SHIFT!! Why doesn’t Moxley cover?!
Moxley goes out, looks under the ring, and brings out chairs?! This isn’t No Disqualifications! Omega dared Moxley to keep “the trash wrestling” out of this, but Moxley is still angry over whatever backstage attack that was a few weeks ago! Moxley takes the chairs, and sits them up? Moxley takes a seat and wants Omega to sit in the other. Omega accepts this odd invitation, because this is Moxley’s “gentlemanly challenge.” Moxley dares Omega to hit him! So Omega SLAPS him! Moxley likes that, and SLAPS Omega! Omega SLAPS, Moxley SLAPS! Now they’re throwing JABS! And haymakers! Faster and faster, and fans fire up! Moxley ROCKS Omega, but Omega V-TRIGGERS! So much for being gentlemen!
Omega drags Moxley up, SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX! And then, ANOTHER SNAP DRAGON! Moxley gets up, Omega says BANG, and runs, but Moxley dodges to SNAP GERMAN! Omega flounders up, kicks back and V-TRIGGERS! Omega runs, Moxley KING KONG LARIATS! Fans fire up and declare “This is Awesome!” Moxley drags Omega up, underhooks, DEATH RIDER!! Cover, TWO!?!? Omega survives?! Did Moxley take too long to cover? Omega bails out but Moxley hurries after! Moxley builds speed, and DIVES, into a V-TRIGGER!! Omega took Moxley out of the air!! Omega drags Moxley up and into the ring as fans lose their minds!

Omega reels Moxley in, underhooks, TIGER DRIVER ’98! Cover, TWO!! Moxley survives but Omega won’t give up! Point-blank V-TRIGGER! Omega smirks as he loads up again, ANOTHER V-TRIGGER!

Omega slips out of the underhooks to steal the hooks, but Moxley slips out to try the sleeper!
Omega slips out to waistlock but Moxley elbows free, only to run into a dropkick! Omega calls back to the Rainmaker, to ripcord and V-TRIGGER!! Then the Electric Chair, but Moxley fights back! So Omega shifts to COYT’S WRATH!! Cover, TWO!! Moxley survives again but Omega shakes his head. Omega drags Moxley to a drop zone and then goes to the corner. Omega climbs as fans rally, but Moxley rises to SHOVE Omega down! Omega avoids hitting heaters but Moxley ROCKS him with a forearm! Moxley trips Omega and Omega hits the apron.
Moxley harkens back to Full Gear 2019, PARADIGM SHIFTÂ into the heaters! It isn’t exactly the stage installations from Full Gear, but the ref says they need the medic! Moxley paces while the medics check Omega. Don Callis leaves commentary to check on Omega as they are close friends, practically family. Moxley grows impatient and he storms back to Omega. He shoves refs aside and gets Omega in the ring! Moxley doesn’t cover, he rains down fists! Callis gets a mic because he wants to talk! Clearly Omega is in bad shape, so Callis wants to talk to Moxley. Callis taps Moxley on the shoulder, but Moxley DECKS Callis!
The ref checks on Callis now, but wait, did Callis’ mic get thrown into the ring? Omega grabs the mic?! Moxley turns back to Omega, and Omega CLOBBERS Moxley with the mic!! Omega was faking being in bad shape?! Omega “flounders” as Moxley is bleeding from the mic shot! Moxley is legitimately dazed as Omega pulls the knee pad down, V-TRIGGER!! Then ANOTHER V-TRIGGER! Both of those target the bloody forehead, but then the BLINDSIDE V-TRIGGER, and ANOTHER V-TRIGGER!! Shot after shot but Omega isn’t done with Moxley! Omega Electric Chair lifts Moxley, for ONE WINGED ANGEL!! Cover, Omega wins!!
Winner: Kenny Omega, by pinfall (NEW AEW World Champion)
The first time anyone has pinned Jon Moxley in AEW, and it’s because The Cleaner had help from a friend! Callis helps Omega celebrate, they’re both just fine as they bug out to the back! Tony Khan himself is furious as to what just happened, but there’s no undoing the Winter Screwjob now! Omega and Callis are going to the way, way back, and to the parking lot where their car is waiting! Marvez tries to get a word about what just happened, but Callis says you’ll find out on Tuesday! Because Callis and Omega will tell us all on IMPACT! Eddie Kingston shows up at the last minute, not for his old friend but because he wants after Lance Archer! But what’s the point as AEW is closing the night?! Are we really going to have to watch Impact Wrestling on AXS TV to figure out what just happened?!
My Thoughts:
An amazing episode! Went so smoothly, with such great action and story from beginning to end! The Dynamite Diamond Ring Battle Royal was great stuff, and it was really telling as to where this new Matt Hardy is going. Granted, battle royals are “every person for themselves” but he didn’t show any allegiances when dealing with Private Party. The Inner Circle naturally worked together, and it worked towards story that MJF went into business for himself, so to speak. That element also fed into Jericho VS Kaz, as the dysfunction already got to a point that Jericho is wiling to lay it all on the line. I feel like this is another rushed pacing for AEW, but it might not be so bad.
It was also great to see Hangman working with Silver and Reynolds, even just a little. That story will be fun to continue. And if it’s MJF VS Cassidy for the diamond ring, I honestly can’t be sure how it goes. MJF has already has the ring for over a year but he can continue to make history as a two-time ring winner. Cassidy probably wouldn’t even get that he won a diamond ring, and would just let one of the Best Friends hold onto it. At the same time, the ring could feed into the “ultimatum” and how the Inner Circle might choose to stick together.
Britt VS Leyla was a really good match but Britt of course wins on kayfabe. Thunder Rosa coming back for revenge was a great move, that match is going to be great. Shida being scared of Abadon to the point where a random noise spooked her is great for Abadon as she’s climbing up the ranks in more ways than one. That match-up will be a great opportunity for Shida to show some character depth and personality range she hasn’t with matches against Nyla Rose and the others.
The tag match of Darby, Cody and Team Taz was pretty good stuff, but I should’ve seen Darby and Cody taking the win here to tie things up from the loss before. Cage and Dustin get involved and that easily can become a Six Man Tag, but then what a HUGE surprise to have STING joining AEW! He jumps into a big story right away by scaring off Team Taz, yet staring down the Nightmare Family and Darby. I wonder if things turn into an 8 Man if Taz gets back in the ring for one match. Whatever the case, Sting being anywhere again is great.
And then that main event, what a great match and great story! We all knew Omega was going Heel but I didn’t think he’d have a partnership with Don Callis! And I didn’t expect it to pay off, or for it to mean we were getting crossover with IMPACT! I don’t know about changing my schedule to include Impact, but this is all the more reason to be keeping up with Andrew Balaz here on Chairshot for all his Impact coverage.
My Score: 9.3/10

Everything you’ve worked for for the last five years in AEW, I’m gonna give you a chance right now. Hey ref, you work for me, get your ass in the ring. We’re going to put the Trios Championships on the line again, right now! Ring the bell!” The fans boo but apparently Moxley has the power to do this. Can Uno, Reynolds & Silver turn the tides to take the power back?
AEW World Trios Championships: Blackpool Combat Club VS The Dark Order!
The bell rings, Silver stands, but Claudio UPERCUTS! Claudio fires fists on Silver, the ref counts but he also has to reprimands Marina for getting too close to Uno and Reynolds.

Backstage interview with The Undisputed Kingdom.
Lexy Nair is with Roderick Strong, Matt Taven & Mike Bennett, but also Beast Mortos. They wanted to talk with him, but are mostly feeding him fried chicken… Roddy says, “BEEEAST! Thanks for joining us.” Bennett gives Mortos more meat to eat, and Roddy says they really need to talk. What is going on with Mortos? Something seems off. Mortos growls but Bennett says no, he’s just confused. Mortos taking out Hologram like that? Not cool. Taven can’t believe LFI got Mortos to wear a polo shirt! Mortos never even wore a shirt when hanging out with The Kingdom. Not cool! And what is Mortos doing fisting (with) two other dudes? Really not cool.
But the most disappointing thing of all, is that this is all happening without The Kingdom! Roddy says they’re not mad, just disappointed. The Kingdom leaves but did Mortos even care what they said while chowing down on meat? If they keep trying to get Mortos back, will LFI make The Kingdom one of their targets?

Mariah drags Anna up, whips her to ropes, but Anna slips around to wrench. Mariah stops the hook kick to wrench and ARMBAR DDT! Cover, TWO! Anna stays in this and Mariah grows frustrated.

Mariah is speechless! She thought Anna was unworthy, and yet that arrogance is why Anna won! And Tony Khan calls in to say we don’t have to wait long! Two weeks from now, Collision in Philadelphia, Mariah May VS Anna Jay, with the title on the line! Will Mariah avenge herself in the rematch? Or will there truly be a new Star of the Show?
My Thoughts:
A great Battle of the Belts, especially with the events of Collision spilling over. BCC beating down Top Flight, fighting Dark Order, and then having another match was all great stuff to really get heat on them. And speaking of the Collision crossover, great bit with Garcia & Private Party rushing out there, and then Cassidy eventually going out there once BCC was on the retreat. As we saw for Collision, the other Faces are expecting Cassidy to step up but he is reluctant to, given his history with the various members of BCC. At some point, The Conglomeration members might also think Cassidy should step up, and he’ll be compelled to fight.
Speaking of Conglomeration, great match from Okada VS O’Reilly, and I do appreciate them pushing this close to the time limit. Great win for Okada, and his card is wide open now, ready to face just about anyone. LFI had a very good promo to follow up what they did on Collision, but also to show Hologram is not out of the woods with them. Hologram might even be the third man alongside FTR to fight the full LFI. Mortos and Undisputed Kingdom also had a great promo together, very funny stuff. That’s also a Six Man Tag we could see, and just about any trio could come out of this to challenge BCC next.
Really good first showing for the #MurderMachines, Archer & Cage, but that combo Blackout Powerbomb needs some work to smooth out the wrinkles. I feel like they’ll be stepping to Dustin Rhodes & Sammy Guevara for the ROH World Tag Team Championships first, given The Bucks are Heels. And great main event from Mariah VS Anna. I am very pleased to see they had Anna win here. It works for Mariah’s character as her arrogance cost her, and now we’ll get an even better title match in a couple weeks. I don’t see Anna winning that one, though, because again, we need to see Mina Shirakawa work her way to the title so she and Mariah can fight it out.
My Score: 8.7/10

PLAY BY PLAY
Jon Moxley speaks.
“Regarding the AEW World Championship, nothing has changed. Nothing is different. Nothing changed last Saturday night, nothing has changed since the moment I arrived in AEW. Nobody ‘owns’ that belt, it doesn’t belong to anybody. It’s not for Bryan Danielson or anybody else. It’s for the position that only man has sat in that chair. That is me. Somebody spent a lot of money on that belt and it’s really supposed to mean something. It’s just gold and leather, but when I look at it, it is the symbol of everything I hate in this sport. It’s the symbol of everything I’ve been fighting against for years. Everything that AEW was not supposed to be.
“If nobody else is going to say it, I’ll say it. Nothing comes for free in this world. But tonight, we give this Top Flight a gift. A shot at the World Trios Championships, won’t that be so great? They think they’re gonna hit a button, ride up an elevator to the top of this sport, that’s not how this works. There is no elevator. You are standing at the foot of a mountain, and the mountain looks like this.” Moxley points to Pac, Claudio and Yuta in turn. “We will win this war, cuz our cause is just, and our power is pure, and our enemies are weak in spirit. It’s a big night for you, Top Flight, but it is not your coronation. Tonight is a public execution.”
The Maniac paces, and the warning has been issued. Will Action, Darius & Dante still go through with the match?
Ricochet VS AR Fox!
The One & Only wants everyone to understand that to be The Best in the World, you don’t say it, you show it! So then will Ricochet show everyone in AEW and around the world that he IS the best? Or will he just be a guest star on the Whole Fox’n Show?

That match was definitely #OuttaThisWorld, and Ricochet comes out on top! Ricochet grabs a mic to say, “Stockton, what’s good?” Ricochet wants to say that he is here in AEW because this is where the BESTÂ WRESTLE! The fans cheer that! Ricochet says he has yet to be pinned or submitted in this ring. And that’s funny, because there’s someone who keeps putting their nose in his business. The fans should know who. Konosuke Takeshita, it doesn’t matter where you go. You may be champion, but you can go to Canada, Mexico, Japan, or somewhere in the US. Wherever Takeshita goes, Ricochet will be waiting to kick his ass!
Ricochet says it doesn’t matter who has his back, from Don Callis to Kyle Fletcher, because Ricochet will knock down opponent after opponent until he gets Takeshita 1v1 in this ring to become the NEW International Champion! The fans rally behind Ricochet, and Ricochet knows they know. They know that Ricochet isn’t from this planet, he is Outta This World! The fans fire up, but when and where will The One & Only take on The Alpha?
Daniel Garcia & Private Party speak.
Red Death says Moxley and his crew wanna come in and take over AEW. Then they’ve got The Young Bucks & Jack Perry just sitting back, letting it happen. They act like it’s all okay. It’s not. And the thing is, The Elite isn’t willing to handle the responsibility it takes to truly handle those championships. But good news! He and Private Party will relieve them of their duties. Garcia says Zay to talk to ’em. Kassidy says the word isn’t complicit, it is complacent. The Bucks have become complacent cowards! Private Party will not sit back and watch BCC take over AEW. AEW changed Kassidy’s life!
Zay would rather die fighting than watch AEW go down in flames. And if Private Party has to lead by example by beating The Elite’s asses and become the NEW AEW World Tag Team Champions, then so be it! Marq Quen says there you have it. He can’t paint a better picture. And before they beat The Elite’s asses on Dynamite, there’s business to handle tonight. Stockton, the mission continues, let’s get it! Garcia, Quen & Zay are ready, but will the Premier Athletes stand in their way?
Kris Statlander VS Harley Cameron!
The Galaxy’s Greatest is now #BornAgainKristen, and she wants to return to what made her great in the first place. But will she keep her comeback going? Or will this wacky Aussie show one of her many talents is winning?
The bell rings, Kris and Harley circle, and then they step up. Harley calls for a knuckle lock, Kris accepts, and then Harley pokes Kris in the eyes! But Kris denies Sole Food!

DEADLIFT GERMAN! Harley flounders, Kris runs in at the corner, UPPERCUT! Kris goes side to side, KNEE! Kris reels Harley in, FISHERMAN DRIVER!! But then Kris lines up another shot, DISCUS LARIAT! That’s not the end, she scoops and tucks Harley, STATURDAY NIGHT FEVER! Cover, Kris wins!
Winner: Kris Statlander, by pinfall
Kris wins but she’s not done as she grabs the mic. “One thing about me is that I am never afraid to test myself and prove that I am THE toughest and THE strongest here in AEW.” The fans cheer that! Kris says one person has been a real pain in the ass. So Kamille, Kris is calling you out! Time Kamille finally met her match! And as for Mercedes Mone, Kris will make sure you have a front row seat. The Galaxy’s Greatest wants to take on The Brickhouse, but will she make it through that obstacle to then get at The CEO’s TBS Championship?
Six Man Tag: Daniel Garcia & Private Party VS The Premier Athletes!
We just heard from Red Death and friends and they are in a fighting mood. But of course we have to hear from “Smart” Mark Sterling… “Folks, the Premier Athletes have decided to take care of these three punk kids for all the disrespect that they’ve been showing our great EVPs, Matthew & Nicholas Jackson. And of course we’re doing this for an opportunity at what I do best, and that’s climb the corporate ladder!” Now the people here in Stockton are surely just smart enough to play along. When he says, “Athletes!” you say, “Rule!” Nothing else! Hands in. Ohhh~…! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Sterling isn’t that smart is he?
The trios sort out, Tony Nese starts against Isiah Kassidy, and they circle. They feel things out, but then Ariya Daivari gets in to CLOBBER Zay! The fans boo as Nese & Daivari stomp Zay. They bump him off buckles, Nese tags Daivari and they mug Zay. The ref counts, The Premier Athletes stop, and Daivari tags Nese back in. They stand Zay up for more mugging! The fans boo, the ref reprimands and counts, but Nese stops at 4. Nese then clamps onto Zay, brings him around, and whips him to the corner. Zay uses that to triangle jump STUNNER Woods! Nese waistlocks, Zay wrenches to knuckle lock and CHOP!
Daivari runs in, Zay dodges, then goes up and up to FLYING ARM-DRAG RANA COMBO! Zay runs up, Nese headlocks, but Quen tags in. Private Party play leapfrog to then DROPKICK! Daivari returns, atomic drop and DROPKICK! Woods runs up, they block his boot to KICK and NECKBREAKER! DOUBLE STMOPS added, and the fans fire up! Sterling says don’t touch him, he’ll sue! Quen leaves Sterling alone to tag Zay. Private Party double whip Nese, Quen sets up and Zay runs in, PARTY IN MOTION! They switch, Quen gives us AFTERPARTY IN MOTION! Zay paces, drags Nese up, then scoops to SLAM!
Zay goes to the corner, climbs up, and the fans rally up. But wait, Stokely Hathaway is here? Zay says stay back, but Nese trips him up! Nese kicks Zay out, distracts the ref, and The Premier Athletes beat Zay down! Sterling even gets a cheap shot in! The fans boo, Quen & Garcia protest, but the ref has to stop them from getting at Nese. Nese taunts them while Collision goes picture in picture.
Nese fetches Zay into the ring, drags him to the Premier Athlete corner, then tags Woods. Woods fires big hands on Zay, then brings Zay around to bump off buckles. Woods stands on Zay, drags him up, and CLUBS him on the back! Zay sputters, Woods distracts the ref, and Sterling CHOKES Zay on ropes! Quen & Garcia are helpless to help Zay, and Woods drags Zay back up. Woods ROCKS Zay, Zay hits back! They fire forearms back and forth until Woods knees low! The fans rally for Zay but Woods CLUBS him back down! Woods stands on Zay at the ropes! The fans taunt Sterling but Woods brings Zay back up.
Woods whips Zay hard into a corner! Zay flops down, Garcia coaches him up, but Woods steps to Garcia. Woods whips Zay into the corner again, and hard, while Collision goes to break.
Collision returns, Woods fireman’s carries Zay for an F- NO, Zay lands out! Zay blocks Woods’ kick, then steps over, SPINNING ENZIGIRI! The fans are thunderous as Zay and Woods crawl! Zay pounds the mat, makes his way over, hot tag to Garcia! The fans fire up as Garcia rallies on The Premier Athletes! Garcia fires haymaker after haymaker, then Garcia stomps Woods in a corner. Nese runs up, but Garcia just adds him to the mudhole! The fans are thunderous, but here comes Daivari now! Garcia switches, GERMAN SUPLEXES, and then he dodges Nese! GERMAN SUPELX! Woods runs up, Garcia gets around, but Woods elbows free!
Woods swings, Garcia dodges, REBOUND GERMAN!! The fans are thunderous for #SuplexDanny! Garcia runs corner to corner, but Woods BOOTS him! Woods reels Garcia in, suplexes, but Garcia slips out to kick and SWINGING NECKBRAEKER! Cover, TWO! Woods survives, Stokely is still watching from the ramp, and the fans rally up. Garcia steps through, SHARP- NO, Daivari CLOBBERS Garcia! The fans boo, Daivari soaks up heat, but Quen SPRINGBOARD MISSILIE DROPKICKS! Quen kips up but Nese throat chops! Nese TOSSES Quen out, Zay runs up! Zay fires off forearms and CHOPS! Nese ROCKS Zay back!
Nese whips Zay, Zay reverses, but Nese reverses back! Quen is there for SILLY STRING! Private party fire up, and they run to DOUBLE DIVE! Down go Nese & Daivari! The fans rally up, Woods staggers over to Garcia. Garcia kicks low, but Sterling gets on the apron! The fans boo, but Woods rolls Garcia up! TWO!! Garcia is free, he dodges Woods then SHOTGUNS him down! The fans fire up again as Garcia tags Zay. Zay tags Quen, then Zay puts Woods up top. Quen runs in, for some GIN & JUICE!! Cover, Garcia & Private Party win!
Winners: Daniel Garcia & Private Party, by pinfall
Stokely is NOT happy, because this proves Private Party doesn’t need him! They did need this big win, though, and now they’re rolling towards Dynamite! Will these three earn some SHOTS, SHOTS, SHOTS at The Elite’s championships?
Jake “The Snake” Roberts speaks.
“What are we going to do next? That should be the question in your mind. When Jake Roberts tells you something, you know you can take it to heart. Trust me when It ell you, you cannot outrun the bull. Outrunners, you can run but you cannot hide. Rules and bones were meant to be broken. That’s the reason they made them. Trust me. We’re just here to tear the hell outta everything. That’s what you gotta think about when you step into the ring with us.” When you mess with the bull, you get the horns, so will Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd be gored through by La Faccion Ingobernable?
Orange Cassidy VS Bulk Bronson w/ The Iron Savages!
Mark Briscoe is facing Chris Jericho in a Ladder War on Dynamite, and Kyle O’Reilly is facing Kazuchika Okada later tonight on Battle of the Belts. Will Freshly Squeezed earn himself a golden opportunity? Wait, Jacked Jameson tells all the “fat morons and skinny idiots” to shut up. He is the Shredded Savage, and these monsters are Bulk Bronson & Beefcake Boulder! But hold up. What he sees in the ring is a member of The Conglomeration, a team featured on every show this company has. Meanwhile, Iron Savages must have been renamed The Melatonin Savages, because they keep getting slept on!
So tonight, the flavor of the Savage Sauce is going to be Orange Crush, because Bronson is gonna crush Orange! They are sippin’ sauce, livin’ hoss, and taking all the Low T meat-riders to #TIDDYCITY! Cassidy just sighs, and Jameson keeps talking trash that Bronson’s gonna kill ’em! The bell does ring, Cassidy dodges Bronson, and hits an ORANGE PUNCH on Jameson! Then he dodges Bronson, comes back, ORANGE PUNCH! Bronson staggers around, into BEACH BREAK! Cover, Cassidy wins!
Winner: Orange Cassidy, by pinfall
All that trash talk and what’d it get Jameson? Bronson got beat like he wasn’t even there! Cassidy has win number 175, if you can believe it. Will he finally make it to that world championship level before he hits 200?
Jamie Hayter VS Brooke Havok!
An Open Challenge was put out last night on Rampage, though it was directed mostly at Mrs. Superbad, Penelope Ford. Surprise, surprise, Penelope chose not to answer it. Instead, Brooke is looking to wreak havoc in Stockton, will she bring down a former AEW Women’s World Champion? Or will she learn that Hayter Hits Hard?
The bell rings, the fans rally up, and the two fist bump to show there’s respect. they tie up, Hayter waistlocks and SLAMS Havok. Havok fights up, fires elbows, then runs, but gets run over! Hayter dusts herself off, keeps moving, but Havok drops. Hayter avoids the dropkick, then shrugs. The fans fire up, and Hayter stomps Havok right on the butt. Hayter bumps Havok off buckles, then runs her corner to corner to do it again. Hayter stomps a mudhole in, but lets off to soak up Stockton’s love. Hayter drags Havok up, ROCKS her again and again, then stomps her. Hayter stops as the ref counts, then whips. Hayter BOOTS Havok down!
The fans fire up while Hayter paces. Hayter drags Havok up, reels her in, and suplexes, but Havok slips free! Havok shoves, dodges, and dropkicks a leg out! Havok aims to SUPERKICK! Hayter wobbles, Havok rolls back to go up, but Hayter uses that to lift! SWINGING BACKBREAKER!! And a rough one! Havok writhes but she’s still in this somehow. Hayter hauls Havok up, HAYTERADE!! Cover, Hayter wins!
Winner: Jamie Hayter, by pinfall
It was probably over with that Haytbreaker on overdrive, but Hayter punctuates the victory. Wait, Penelope is on the tron. “Oh, hey, Jamie, are you really confused why I attacked you? I’ll tell you why. Because unlike you, most of us have to work for our opportunities. Do you even know who my partner was in my last TV match? You! And you wanna talk about backstabbing b*tches? Well you’re the backstabbing b*tch! I was out for two years, do you know what that does to someone’s mind? And not once did you even check in on me. Meanwhile, you were gone for a year and you come back to a damn parade at Wembley Stadium.”
Penelope says too many have forgotten who she is, especially Hayter. But Penelope is back, and she’ll make sure what two years of pain and anger really looks like. Penelope is here to take everting that Hayter cares about. And she won’t let anyone forget who Penelope Ford is again. Hayter says okay, fine! But will Hayter make sure Penelope regrets calling her out?
Backstage interview with Daniel Garcia & Private Party.
Lexy Nair is with the winning side tonight and says that was a phenomenal win. Say that again, say that again! What a PHENOMENAL win! Yes, that’s good! Wait, Cassidy steps in. Garcia says he’s been hoping to talk with him. Cassidy sees what it is like out there, yeah? It isn’t about being a hero, it isn’t about being tough guys. It is about holding each other accountable. They are coming to Cassidy because he’s been there before, he beat all these guys before, and it’s time to step up. Cassidy says yeah, he’s been there before. And every time he steps into the ring with one of those guys, it changes him.
Cassidy says he is no leader. He’s just not that guy. Freshly Squeezed heads out, Garcia is disappointed. But will things change when push comes to shove?
Kyle Fletcher w/ Don Callis VS Atlantis Jr!
The last time these two met, it was June of this year when The Protostar defended the ROH World Television Championship against the CMLL second generation star. Atlantis won it then, but then he lost it recently to Brian Cage. This rematch is therefore not about gold but about pride. Will The Aussie Arrow strike Atlantis down this time? Or will history repeat itself from the CMLL anniversary show?
Kyle throws his jacket at Atlantis to then CLBOBER him! The bell rings and Kyle rains down furious fists from all side! The fans boo but this is the attitude change from siding with Callis over Ospreay. Kyle paces around, drags Atlantis up, but Atlantis fires back forearms! The fans cheer but Kyle knees low. Kyle TOSSES Atlantis out, then goes out to throw him into railing! The fans boo while Atlantis flops over, but Kyle just soaks it all up. Kyle drags Atlantis up again, brings him around, and whips him into more railing! The fans continue to boo but Kyle flexes on ’em. Kyle refreshes the count, then watches Atlantis.
Kyle takes aim and runs in, but Atlantis scoops to a BACKBREAKER! Atlantis puts Kyle in while fans fire up. Atlantis climbs to CROSSBODY! Atlantis bounces off, keeps moving, and he tilt-o-whirl RANAS Kyle! Kyle stagger sup, into a wrench and CUTTER! The fans fire up while Kyle bails out. Atlantis runs to FLY! Down goes Kyle and the fans fire up! Atlantis high-fives the front row, then he goes back for Kyle. The fans cheer as Atlantis waves a fan’s Mexican flag. Atlantis puts Kyle in, but Kyle comes back to CALF KICK! Atlantis falls, Kyle takes aim, and he PENALTY KICKS Atlantis down! Kyle flexes, fans boo, but Collision goes picture in picture.
Kyle soaks up more heat, then takes his time walking down the steps. Kyle stares down the fans as he goes, then claims he can’t hear them. Kyle refreshes the count, he’s taking a little too long toying with Atlantis. But Kyle stands Atlantis up, pushes him against the railing, and CHOKES him in front of the fans! The ref says stop but Kyle CLUBS Atlantis! Kyle says he stopped so chill. Kyle drags Atlantis up to put him in, and again pretends he can’t hear the fans. Kyle goes back into the ring, taunts the fans, then gets up in one guy’s face. The guy chants right at him, and Kyle feints a punch. Kyle then says “SUCK IT!” and goes back to Atlantis.
Kyle stomps Atlantis, taunts the fans, then stands Atlantis up. Atlantis CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOSP again! Kyle knees low in return! Kyle whips, Atlantis reverses, then Atlantis runs up to MONKEY FLIP! Kyle flounders to the other corner, and Atlantis runs in, but into an ELBOW! Kyle seethes while Atlantis sputters. Kyle dusts himself off, stands back up, and he runs up to stomp Atlantis down! Kyle soaks up more heat while Collision returns to single picture. Kyle taunts Atlantis, drags him up, and RIPS at the mask! The ref reprimands, the fans boo, but Kyle still opens up the eye hole.
Atlantis gets pissed, and he CHOPS! CHOPS! But Kyle kicks low! Kyle runs, into a POP-UP PUNT! SUPERKICK! And then a LARIAT that sends Kyle up and out! The fans are thunderous, Atlantis builds speed, and he DIVES! Direct hit and Kyle is sent into railing! Kyle grits his teeth while he drops to his knees, but the fans rally for “LUCHA! LUCHA!” Atlantis puts Kyle in, goes up the corner, and he MISSILE DROPKICKS! Atlantis hurries to cover, TWO! Atlantis is frustrated, but he goes to a corner. Atlantis runs corner to corner, goes up again, but no monkey flip this time! Kyle runs in, but into the torture rack!
Kyle slips free, shoves, and SNAP HALF ‘N’ HALF! Atlantis writhes but Kyle grins. The fans boo but Kyle stalks Atlantis. Kyle drags Atlantis up to give stiff Kawada Kicks! That’s a shot at Ospreay there, then he brings Atlantis up. Kyle grins as he underhooks the arms, and Callis says do it! Break Atlantis! But Atlantis fights free! Wrench, hammerlock, half nelson, takedown! TWO!! Kyle escapes that Atlantis Cradle, then puts Atlantis on the apron. But Atlantis blocks a haymaker, RAMS in, but Kyle uses that to DRAPING DDT! Kyle strikes like a Viper but he isn’t done! Kyle joins Atlantis on the apron, to APRON BRAINBUSTER!!
The fans lose their minds, and Kyle pushes Atlantis in to haul him up! Another suplex, another BRAINBUSTER!! Cover, TWO?!? Kyle is shocked and the fans are electric! Kyle argues with the ref and even Callis can’t believe it! Kyle seethes, scoops, but Atlantis fights to turn things around! Atlantis marches around, but Kyle turns things back around! But Atlantis turns it back around! Kyle swings to roll Atlantis, and then deadlift suplex, but Atlantis slips free! Atlantis ROCKS Kyle! Kyle ROCKS Atlantis! Repeat!

Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa.
Lexy is with La Mera Mera and says she hasn’t been in AEW since August. She got hurt, then showed up in England. When will she come back? Rosa says unfortunately, she suffered a concussion, but she has been cleared. While out of action, she went home to Mexico for International Girls’ Day, then she went to London this past weekend to win a championship. Then the Mexican Embassy honored her and- Harley says this is an injustice! NO justice! It is HER time! Hey, she is having a moment! This has been unruly and unfair and- Rosa says this is unfair! Then she DECKS Harley! Harley says Rosa will be the next to feel her wrath!
Harley writhes, but when she gets back up, will she and Rosa have quite the Collision in the ring?
The Outrunners VS La Faccion Ingobernable!
Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd have risen to new heights, in part thanks to working out with FTR. But will the Youngest Men Alive keep rising up the ranks? Or will El Toro Blanco y The Beast Mortos stampede right through them towards the top spot in AEW?
The teams sort out, Truth starts against Mortos and the fans rally up. The two circle, tie up, and Mortos powers Truth to a corner. The ref counts, Mortos lets off slowly, to then SMACK Truth! Truth gets heated and the fans fire up, and the two circle. Truth dares Mortos to bring it! Mortos and Truth each rev up, run up, and Mortos CLOBBERS Truth! The fans are torn as Truth stands back up. Truth says he’s got this! They rev up again, run, and Truth hurdles! Then he drops down to DROPKICK! The fans fire up and Truth runs in, but Mortos picks him up! Truth hits FLYING HEADSCISSORS! And another FLYING NHEADSCISSORS!
Truth wrenches Mortos, tags Turbo, and Turbo takes the handoff to wrench. But Mortos HEADBUTTS! Rush tags in, runs, ducks ‘n’ dodges, but Turbo hurdles! Turbo runs, Rush follows, but Turbo ROCKS him! Rush ROCKS Turbo! They go forearm for forearm and the fans fire up! Rush CHOPS! Turbo CHOPS! Repeat! The fans “WOO~!” as the CHOPS keep going! Both men roar, Rush shoves to CHOP, CHOP, and CHOP! Rush runs, but into an ELBOW! Turbo flexes, tags Truth, then The Outrunners double whip. They DOUBLE ELBOW Rush down! The fans fire up for the spin ‘n’ flex, but Dralistico gets on the apron.
The ref reprimands Dralistico, Truth runs up, but Mortos CLOBBERS him! Rush BLASTS Turbo, then LFI mugs Truth in their corner. Rush CHOPS and Truth sputters. Mortos tags back in, but Truth CHOSP back! Mortos keeps Truth from Turbo, DECKS him, then hauls him up. Mortos whips, ELBOWS, then NECK TWISTS! Cover, TWO! Truth survives and the fans rally up. Mortos drags Truth up, tags Rush, and LFI mugs Truth again while Collision goes picture in picture.
Rush fires more hands, then he scuffs Truth. Truth rolls to the apron but Rush drags him back in. Rush clamps on a chinlock and squeezes tight. Truth endures, fights up, but Rush wrangles him back down. Rush leans on the hold, fishhooks Truth to make him smile, but lets go as the ref reprimands. Rush stalks Truth to the ropes, CHOKES him, but steps away as the ref counts. So Dralistico CHOKES Truth instead! Rush drags Truth up, and SHOTGUNS him to a corner! Rush storms up to ROCK Truth again! Rush drags Truth up, wrenches and KICKS him, then snapmares with some force. Rush has the arms for a motorcycle stretch!
Truth endures, Rush tags Mortos, and LFI double whip to DOUBLE LARIAT! Mortos high stacks, TWO! Truth survives, goes to a corner, but Mortos storms up. Truth fires hands, Mortos SMACKS him back down! Mortos has a leg, to DDT the foot! Truth crawls, Mortos has his leg again, HALF CRAB as Collision goes to break!

Winners: La Faccion Ingobernable
This might as well have been 3v2! The fans boo and Turbo protests, but the ref never saw a thing! But now LFI beats down Turbo just because they can! The fans boo, Truth storm sin to shield Turbo but that’s just a 3v2 beating! WAIT! Here comes FTR! The fans fire up as Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler storm their way out! LFI get shots in while they still can, and then they brawl 3v2 with FTR! But now The Outrunners are up! #FTRunners turn the tides 4v3! Dralistico takes haymakers, Rush drags his brother to safety! LFI retreats, but will they prove to FTR who the real Top Guys are?
Sammy Guevara speaks.
“I’ve been here for the past five years. I take a lot of pride in being called an AEW Original. Because of this place, my life changed for the better. So the best way I know how to repay AEW is to make sure every single time I get in that ring, I give you a moment you’ve never seen before. For me, it’s always the same. But the way I get there needs to be different. The way I realize my destiny is by going against the best. And one of the best just had a hell of a debut on Dynamite. He’s a man I watched since I was a kid, so I went to Tony Khan personally and I asked for this match.
This Wednesday, for the first-time ever, live on Dynamite, it’ll be Sammy Guevara VS Shelton Benjamin! Get ready for another moment.” The Spanish God is on his way back, but will he be ready for the Standard of Excellence?
AEW World Trios Championships: Blackpool Combat Club VS Top Flight!
This main event is going to be a Collision for sure! Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta & Pac did their best to beat a lot of different teams into submission on Wednesday, but it only stoked the flames of rebellion. Will the Swiss Superman, Decoder & Bastard just have to break their opponents in mind and body? Or will Action, Darius & Dante finally add some gold to their luggage?
The introductions are made, the belts are raised, and we see who really runs things around here!
The trios sort out and Pac starts against Action. They circle, feel things out, then tie up. Pac waistlocks and SLAMS Action, then floats to a facelock. Pac makes it almost a gut wrench, but then he floats around to headlock. Pac grinds Action down, but Action fights up. Pac puts Action on ropes, the ref counts, but Pac backs away at 4. Action watches Pac closely, and then Pac whips. Action reverses to wrench, but Pac wrenches back. Action rolls, handsprings, cartwheels, and wrenches to WRING Pac out! Action then knuckle locks, CHOPS, and he goes up, up and around to FLYING ARM-DRAG! Then DROPKICK!
Action headlocks but Pac RAMS him into the corner! Yuta tags in and fans boo as Yuta fires hands! Yuta digs his knee into Action, lets off as the ref counts, and the ref warns Yuta. Yuta drags Action but Action kicks, KICKS and handsprings over, hot tag to Darius! The fans fire up as Air Wolf SLAMS Yuta down, then rolls to a sunset flip and stack, TWO! Yuta runs up, Darius ducks, dodges and bypasses to DROPKICK! The fans fire up but Claudio tags in! Claudio scoops to SLAM Darius! And then UPPERCUT! Darius sputters, but Claudio storms up on him. Claudio whips, Darius ducks ‘n’ dodges, but Claudio LARIATS!
Claudio hauls Darius up, suplexes, but Darius slips free! Tag to Dante, and he fires hands! The fans fire up but Claudio shoves Dante. Dante dodges to JUPM KNEE! Dante suplexes, but Claudio blocks! Claudio wrenches to LARIAT! Angel Dorado is down but Claudio brings him back up. Claudio suplexes, Darius saves his brother! Claudio runs up, LARIATS Darius but Dante dodges! Dante DROPKICKS Claudio out of the ring! Dante hurries up but Claudio HOTSHOTS him! Darius runs up, Claudio RAMS him back! But Dante runs up, POETRY IN FLIGHT! Dante keeps moving, but Pac trips him up!
The fans boo but Darius WRECKS The Bastard, only for Yuta to CLOBBER him! Action mule kicks Yuta! ARABIAN PRESS! Down goes Yuta and the fans fire up with Th eSight to See! He tells Dante to go, and Dante DIVES, but Claudio catches him! And POSTS him! Top Flight is in trouble while Collision goes picture in picture.
Claudio drags Dante up, fireman’s carries, and marches around the way. Claudio goes up the steps, WASTELAND SLAMS Dante into the ring, then tags Pac. Pac steps in to stomp Dante. Pac drags Dante up, whips him to a corner hard, and Dante tumbles up then down the buckles! Pac paces around like a shark with blood in the water. Pac BOOTS Dante, drags him up again, and bumps him off buckles. Tag to Yuta and Yuta CHOPS! Dante is stinging but Yuta brings him around to hook a leg, FISHERMAN SUPELX! Bridging cover, TWO! Not quite perfect but Yuta does hold on to the leg., Yuta drags Dante over to tag Claudio.
Claudio takes the other leg, BCC drags Dante to their corner and stomp away! Claudio looms over Dante, but Dante fires body shots! Claudio UPPERCUTS Dante down, stomps him again, then tags Pac. The stomps continue, and then Pac drags Dante up to reel him in. Pac snap suplexes Dante and goes to a corner. Pac runs in, but Dante dodges! Pac hits buckles, but he hurries to stop Dante from getting away! Pac drags Dante away and tags in Claudio! Claudio stomps Dante again, then hauls him up. Claudio ROCKS Dante, fires hands in the corner, then UPPERCUTS! Dante sputters, Claudio stares down Top Flight, and Collision returns to single picture.
Claudio whips Dante corner to corner, runs in, but Dante dodges! Claudio POSTS himself! The fans fire up while Dante crawls! Claudio scrambles back in, hot tags to Yuta and Darius! Darius CLOBBERS Yuta and fires off fast hands! The fans fire up as Darius whips, but Yuta reverses. Darius catches the leapfrog into an atomic drop! BULLDOG HOTSHOT then GAMANGIRI! The fans fire up for the STEP-IN FLATLINER! Darius brings Yuta up, but Yuta JAWBREAKERS! Pac tags in and he runs up on Darius! Darius goes up and over, Action GAMANGIRIS! Pac staggers, Action SHOTGUNS Pac into Darius’ GERMAN SUPLEX!
Pac sputters, the fans fire up, Darius hauls Pac up with a deadlift suplex! Action SPRINGBOARD 450 SPLASHES! Cover, Claudio breaks it with a gator roll! And a deadlift POWERBOMB! Darius runs up to fire hands on Claudio! Claudio TOSSES Darius out, and Yuta BUSAIKU KNEES! Dante SUPERKICKS Claudio out! Dante goes up and up, but Pac SHOVES him down! Dante hits apron, but Claudio hauls him up to THRWO into steel steps! The ref reprimands The BCC but Pac CLOBBERS Action! Yuta UPPERCUTS, Claudio UPPERCUTS, Pac UPPERCUTS, repeat! They again and again, UPPERCUT after UPPERCUT! Feed to Pac for a TOMBSTONE! Cover, BCC wins!
Winners: The Blackpool Combat Club, by pinfall (still AEW World Trios Champions)
Top Flight just got grounded after BCC railroaded them there! But now they keep on the beating! The fans boo but here comes Moxley! The Maniac himself is here, accompanied by Marina Shafir. They join their team in the ring as the beating continues. Moxley whispers to Pac, and Pac drags Action up. Moxley looks Action in the eyes, and then DECKS him! Claudio continues to hammer away on Darius, but here comes Lio Rush! He gets mugged, but Leila Grey asks they stop. Marina ROUNDHOUSES Leila! Marina TOSSES Leila up, and Collision ends with more mayhem! Who will ever stop the reign of terror that Moxley has started?
My Thoughts:
A really good Collision, with the only real filler being The House of Black winning their squash match. Great match from Ricochet VS Fox with a great win from Ricochet, and a pretty good promo for him to call out Takeshita. If they want to sell what he said, Ricochet should go to the same other promotions Takeshita visits. Like if Takeshita goes back home to Japan and DDT Pro, have Ricochet go after him after a match. And as far as having a match, this should culminate at Full Gear to really stretch out Takeshita trying to avoid Ricochet until he just can’t. Kyle VS Atlantis was also a great match, and great win for Kyle. Kyle saying he’ll tell all on Wednesday is of course going to set up Kyle VS Ospreay, perhaps also for Full Gear.
Very good match from Kris VS Harley, which Kris of course wins. Kris calling out Kamille is great, and a little annoyed they’re making us wait for Fright Night when Kris VS Kamille could just happen next week to give us Kris VS Mone at Fright Night instead. But whatever, this is the usual Tony Khan Women’s Division pacing, because surely Kris VS Mone is what he wants for Full Gear. That does make sense, because for one, Mone as a character would want the big money moment on a PPV, not on TV. And regardless of where/when it happens, it is hard to say that even Face Statlander beats Mone for the TBS Championship.
Harley also had a good moment with Thunder Rosa. Rosa knocking Harley on her ass was great, and Rosa VS Harley will be fun stuff. It can definitely help Rosa get back up and into title conversations, and she should be going for Mone and the TBS title because chasing that history of “first woman to hold both AEW belts” is some good stuff. Meanwhile, Hayter demolished Havok, and she’ll have really good stuff with Penelope Ford, and on a personal level, I do feel for Penelope missing two YEARS of action. Penelope probably wins a match from cheating, but then loses to Hayter in the rematch so that Hayter can go back for a championship.
Great match from LFI VS Outrunners, but the cheating spots LFI pulled off were a bit clunky. LFI of course wins to spark more interaction with FTR, and LFI VS FTR will be great stuff whenever they do it. And then great stuff in this larger story of “Who runs AEW?” Garcia & Private Party had a great promo to call out The Elite, they had a really good match with The Premier Athletes and therefore a really good win over them. Cassidy squashing Bronson while also knocking down Jameson was good stuff. Then Garcia asking Cassidy to take a stand against BCC was good stuff. Cassidy has good reason for wanting to avoid BCC, but Cassidy’s role in this story is now making that random promo with Jerry Lynn work out.
And then speaking of the BCC, very good promo from Moxley to open, and great main event with Top Flight. BCC of course won, but the beatdown that bleeds over into Battle of the Belts is actually pretty good stuff. BCC are just agents of violence and chaos, and they booked the third hour, so might as well segue from one show right into the next.
My Score: 8.8/10
