The stars and staff of AEW are all together on stage.
AEW mourns the loss of Jon Huber, aka Mr. Brodie Lee. The fans chant “Brodie! Brodie!” as Justin Roberts calls for all to rise for the ten bell salute. Huber’s wife and sons are front and center as we all honor his memory.
Jon Moxley speaks.
“I’ve never had a harder time coming up with words in front of a camera than right now. What more can be said about Brodie Lee that hasn’t already been said? But that’s the comforting part. To see the outpouring, the incredible outpouring from all over the world, from the fans that respected Brodie Lee, to all the people in this business that he touched with his presence, his smile, his sarcastic wit, his levity.” Brodie liked to stir the pot, get guys riled up, but all for fun in the locker room. That’s the kind of guy he was, he liked to bring joy to those around him. Moxley had the privilege of spending a decade with Brodie, on a journey from bingo halls to packed arenas and stadiums.
Moxley knows Brodie loved being a father and husband above all. This was just another job. Brodie told Moxley all the time that he was going to love being a dad, but Moxley said no, no, he likes being able to do what he wants. Staying up late, ordering Chinese food at 2 AM. But Brodie wouldn’t change it for the world. “2020 has hit us all hard over and over and over, some harder than others. But this, to give an analogy that I think Brodie would like, is like a pride soccer style kick right to the face to the pro-wrestling community.”
What Moxley has learned, when the calendar turns to 2021, that’s what pro-wrestling is. It’s a community. It’s not just a sport, it is a community. When the chips are down, we support each other and love each other. Men and women from all over the world, brought together by this one thing that we love. Tonight, we come together again to rage against the dying of the light, to celebrate a great human being whose legacy I hope inspires us all to be a little bit better of a person every single day. To appreciate the people we love around us every single day. To appreciate, stop and smell the roses, every single sunset, every sunrise, every day.” Every day is a gift, every day is special. Every day spent with Brodie are all the more special now. “I love you, brother, and I’ll never forget you.”
Chris Jericho joins commentary!
As he joins Excalibur, Jim Ross and Tony Schiavone, Jericho says “It’s gonna be a tough night but it’s going to be a cathartic night for all of us here and everybody watching at home,” as we celebrate the life of Brodie Lee. What a guy he was! Pump up the energy, this is for Brodie!

“The first time I met Brodie was when he debuted in AEW. And I remember going up to Sammy Guevara and telling, ‘I don’t care, I wanna wrestle that guy. That guy’s the number one person on my list I wanna wrestle.'” Darby was so excited to see Brodie Lee in AEW. Darby found out there was no ego in Brodie. He wasn’t here to take a spot, he was here to be part of the team. That was the biggest thing Darby cherished. Brodie wasn’t tearing anyone down but lifting everyone up.

AEW gives a video tribute to Brodie Lee.
Dax Harwood says, “To find someone who is infatuated with their wife and infatuated with their kids and doesn’t allow pro-wrestling to consume their personal life, sometimes that’s hard to find.” Brodie, Jon, he was the most genuine human being in wrestling. Arn Anderson noted that at a live event, you’d look over and it’s Brodie, Junior and Amanda laughing and having a blast, and the show hadn’t happened yet. Cabana notes that between taping Dynamite and Dark, Brodie was always so quick to get home, but that was what his family meant to him.
For the last several months, referee Bryce Remsberg and Brodie got to reconnect and hang out and it was like they’d never missed a beat. That’s just how wrestling goes. But instead of talking about wrestling, they’d talk about their kids and wives. If there were a Mount Rushmore of dads in wrestling, Brodie would be right on it.

“Brodie, Jonny, I’m gonna miss you. I’m gonna miss you busting my balls.

I wanna tell Brodie Jr. and the little rhino, your father’s not gone. As long as you’re alive and you remember him and you remember his teachings, he’s never gone. Your father wasn’t just a warrior in the ring, he was a warrior outside of it. And when I mean a warrior outside of it, I mean he took care of his family. Many men don’t do that nowadays. Your father took care of you and loved you. From the day you both were born, he loved you so much.”

Chris Jericho speaks.
“I had the pleasure of working with Brodie Lee, Luke Harper, 27 times. And I know this because Alex Marvez told me this morning. And one of those times was in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. I was in my room and I was looking at the ceiling, and there was this mark on the ceiling. I thought it was a bug at first, then I thought somebody had put a sticker up there, it was really annoying me. And Brodie came into my room to hang out, and I was telling him, ‘Look at this sticker on my ceiling. What is this? I hate it. It’s bugging me.’ And he told me, ‘That’s not a sticker, that’s the arrow pointing to Mecca.’ And I was like, ‘How do you know that?’ He was like, ‘Everybody knows that.’ I didn’t know that!
“And that sums up who Brodie was. A giant but very intelligent, very smart, very funny, a sarcastic sense of humor. Knew all of this trivia that he could just spew out of his mouth at any moment’s notice. He was also one of the best performers in the ring I’ve ever worked with. And I’m not just saying that because he’s gone. I believed in him, I helped bring him into AEW, and one of the small mercies about all of this is the last six months of his career, he proved to everybody what he knew he could be, which was a main event star. A legit money making star, a Pay-Per-View headliner.
“And I’ll end it with this. I have a dog, a silver Lab, her name is Oakley, she’s very angry towards strangers, very barking, not the friendliest of dogs. Jon came to my house, he walked through the door and Oakley came over and started licking his hand right away. Even she knew what a great person Jon Huber was. I love you, Brodie, and we’re gonna miss you, man. We promise we’ll take care of your family.”

Team Taz regroups and retreats as Sting, Darby, Cody, Cassidy and Vance stand together and stare them down! When will Team Taz face all their enemies and face the consequences?
AEW returns with Cody in the ring.
“I read this memo the other day, and I was looking for a quote. Just something that would encapsulate somebody like Brodie Lee, and I came across this Samuel Johnson quote. ‘You can judge a man’s character by how he treats somebody who can do him no good.’ Over the past week, we’ve heard all these stories of all these different people, these degrees of separation, who were positively affected by Brodie Lee. There has never been a wrestler in every company, in every locker room, with every member of management to have that 1-to-1 connection, and that’s why everyone is affected so deeply. So in short, he was a beautiful man. And he leaves behind a beautiful legacy, and I want to introduce you to that legacy right now. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Negative One, Brodie Lee Junior!”
And as such, Brodie Lee Junior, with mother Amanda, go out to the ring with Brodie’s wrestling boots. Preston Vance and Tony Khan accompany them and Amanda hands the boots to Junior for him to place in the center of the ring. Cody puts a purple bandana on top of the boots to signify Brodie Lee Senior. And then Khan, tells Negative One that he and his family, the boots that were placed in the ring, represent his father, the greatest AEW TNT Champion ever. So to the Huber family, the TNT Championship for life. Cody helps Junior put the belt on his shoulder to hold onto under the spotlight. Khan thanks the fans for being here to honor not only a great champion but a great man. There’s no better way to end the night than with this, and they present a video tribute.
“I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I am Brodie Lee, and I am the Exalted One.” From Rochester, New York, to all around the world, with wife and kids by his side through it all, whether it was in the Wyatt Family or the Dark Order, everyone he worked with had a smile on their face. Championships were great, but the love of his family was far greater, and that is something he will always have. #ThankYouBrodie, we will miss you.
My Thoughts:
What a great episode, with a great tribute from top to bottom for Brodie Lee. There will be no score on this because that’s not what tonight was about. Tonight was for Brodie, and that’s what AEW did. Mostly, as they did slip in some kayfabe for the sake of the New Year’s Smash the next couple weeks. Thunder Rosa going after Britt was the main example of that because Rosa still wants after Britt. But from start to finish, there was so much real emotion in all of the wrestlers, especially when Erick Rowan showed up to be part of the Six Man with Hangman, Reynolds and Silver. It is so great that Rowan was able to be part of this as he was the one who worked with Huber the most. I don’t know if this means Rowan will join AEW but this moment was still amazing to have.
The last segment with the family setting the boots in the ring, being given a TNT Championship replica, and the video was incredible stuff, I started to tear up for a second there. Brodie Lee was clearly a 10/10 guy.

Kenny Omega VS Brian Cage w/ The Don Callis Family!
It’s a battle of machines to begin Maximum Carnage!

But will that comeback begin tonight? Or will not even the former AEW World Champion be better than Cage?

The fans boo as the Callis Family stands tall, though it helps that it was 4v2 in the end. But will the Family leave their former brothers in arms dead and buried in the past?
MVP speaks.
“I’m not just adept at managing the affairs of the Hurt Syndicate. I am an expert in managing how much oxygen you can breathe. For the first time in two-and-a-half years, MVP’s taking off the suit and lacing up the boots. We are the Hurt Syndicate…” Shelton Benjamin finishes the line with, “And we hurt people.” Will they do just that against Mark Briscoe & Private Party? We find out just after the break.
Chris Jericho speaks.
“Hi, guys~! Welcome to another New York Minute. I hope everybody’s enjoying Dynamite tonight right here in Cincinnati, in the heart of the Bluegrass State. But you’re gonna enjoy yourselves even more this Saturday on Collision, as we get ready for one of the biggest, most anticipated matches in Collision history. It’s gonna be The Learning Tree and Jon Moxley’s Death Riders VS Rated FTR, The Outrunners, and Powerhouse Hobbs.” Bryan Keith says, “That’s a dozen mother effers!” Jericho and Big Bill both give a concerned sideways glance, then Bill continues by saying, “As the Learning Tree always says, ‘Size matters.'”
Jericho says yes it does indeed, Redwood! And they also know all about their opponents, especially Rated FTR! The Learning Tree has already shown that Cope is a Dope, and Harwood is No Good! What’s Jericho got for Cash Wheeler? Uh… Wheeler… is a Kneeler! Get it? Like, he’s kneeling at the feet of the King of New York! Sick burn, LT. Jericho knows everyone is asking why Jericho and Moxley are tagging together, how could they possibly get along? Well, Jericho will say this. He has known Moxley a long time, and he can guarantee that they will be on the same page. Right? That’s it! Another New York Minute! Thanks, guys~!
Well, it is certainly a star-studded 6v6 set up for Saturday, but will things go Jericho’s way? Or will the #RatedFTRunners and The Book of Hobbs be the ones to punctuate Maximum Carnage?
“Everyone, show some love for… Ricochet!”
What? The fans boo as The One & Only makes his way out here, golden scissors in his lapel pocket. Those are the very same scissors Ricochet used to assault Swerve Strickland like a complete psycho! Ricochet tells the fans to hush before he steps into the ring, then he grabs a mic. The fans chant “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” Ricochet is very annoyed by this, and he asks they all quiet down. The fans boo instead. Ricochet wants to speak but he’s rather flustered. The “SWERVE’S HOUSE” chants return and that riles Ricochet up a bit more. Ricochet paces, and says, “Y’know what? It’s okay. That’s how it’s gonna be? Listen. A picture is worth a thousand words.” And so on the tron is the image of Ricochet holding a bloodied Swerve up by his dreadlocks.
But then “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” The man himself is here! Ricochet says okay, he’s ready. But no he’s not, cuz Nana slides in from the crowd! Nana SMACKS Ricochet on the back, then does his dance! The fans cheer as now the Most Dangerous Man walks his way out here, chain draped over his shoulders. Ricochet scrambles away before Swerve can lash him! Ricochet runs away into the crowd but Swerve is in pursuit! Swerve shoves security out of his way, but Ricochet’s escaped to the cold streets of Cincinnati! Will Swerve get his hands on his new target next time?
AEW shares “A Day in the Life of a CEO.”
That is to say, we’re following Mercedes Mone as she does her media rounds. “First, we make money.” Mone was a special guest on the Sherri Shepherd show shortly after winning even more gold at WrestleDynasty. Sherri got to admire the “Queen of Southside” Championship that comes along with the Rev-Pro Undisputed British Women’s Championship, both of which Mone won off Mina Shirakawa. Mone signed autographs, took pictures with fans, and Sherri promised that she’ll be there whenever Mone’s in town. “Then, we shop.” Mone bought herself some new jewelry with the money she surely earned becoming a FOUR BELT CEO.
“Them, we train.” Mone knows it is a New Year, and she is dripping with gold! She also knows having four belts puts an even bigger target on her back, but she stays ready! Whoever wants to jump on the Money Train next, let’s go! #MoneChangesEverything, but will she continue to stack dollars and collect titles?
Six Man Tag: Mark Briscoe & Private Party VS The Hurt Syndicate!
The Sussex County Chicken was not a chicken when it came to facing down any of the men in the Hurt Syndicate, but that’s why he ended up getting beat up 3v1! Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy came to Briscoe’s rescue, especially since they were told to their faces that the Hurt Syndicate wants the AEW World Tag Team Championships. Will MVP, the Standard of Excellence & The All Mighty begin on their New Year’s Resolution to hurt people? Or can Briscoe, Quen & Zay #ManUp and take the fight to them?
The trios sort out, but the Syndicate just attacks all at once! The bell rings, Briscoe and MVP stay in the ring but Lashley & Shelton drag Private Party out of the ring! And send them into railing! MVP UPPERCUTS Briscoe to a corner, stomps a mudhole in, then ELBOWS Briscoe down. MVP fires hands, then reels him in for a suplex. Briscoe slips free to CHOP! And ROCK! And CHOP again! Briscoe whips corner to corner, MVP reverse, but Briscoe goes up and out! Briscoe SWATS the haymaker to UPPERCUT back! Briscoe goes up to MISSILE DROPKICK! Cover, ONE!! MVP shows his own grit but Briscoe stands him up.
Briscoe UPPERCUTS MVP, throws hands, then fires more hands in the corner. Briscoe whips, MVP reverses, but Briscoe avoids a boot! Briscoe runs up, but MVP BOOTS again! The fans are torn but MVP looms over Briscoe. MVP drags Briscoe up, then ROCKS him! MVP brings Briscoe around, TOSSES him out, then tags to Shelton. Shelton storms over to Briscoe, and sends him into railing! And then into the apron! And back to railing! And back to apron! Shelton scoops and SLAMS Briscoe on the floor, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Shelton leaves Briscoe behind to the mercy of the ring count, but Briscoe stirs already. Briscoe crawls, but Shelton tags Lashley, and Lashley drags Briscoe up. Lashley RAMS Briscoe into the apron, APRON URENAGES, then shoves Briscoe in. Lashley fires up, runs in, and RAMS Briscoe in the corner! Lashley then brings Briscoe around for a NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Another cover, TWO! A third cover, TWO!! Lashley is frustrated but he drags Briscoe into a chinlock. Lashley tags MVP, and they mug Briscoe while he’s down. The ref reprimands but MVP fires knees into Briscoe again and again. MVP then scoops to SLAM Briscoe down!
MVP runs to drop a KNEE! Cover, TWO! Briscoe stays in this but MVP covers again, TWO! Another cover, TWO!! Briscoe is toughing it out but MVP brings him over. Tag to Shelton and now they mug Briscoe in the corner. Shelton fires hands on Briscoe against the ropes, then snapmares him. Shelton clamps on a chinlock and he grinds Briscoe down. Briscoe endures, fights up, and fires body shots! Briscoe runs, but into an ELBOW! Shelton tags MVP, and MVP looms over Briscoe. MVP stomps Briscoe, then brings him up again. Briscoe fires body shots and forearms, but MVP ROCKS him! Briscoe CHOPS back!
Briscoe fires hands on Shelton & Lashley, but MVP ROCKS Briscoe! MVP drags Briscoe up, reels him in, and snap suplexes! Cover, TWO! Maximum Carnage returns to single picture as MVP has Briscoe up again. Briscoe fires more body shots, then firearms! MVP throat chops, then SMASHES Briscoe off his knee! The fans are torn but MVP feels it. MVP runs to “BALLIN~!” ELBOW DROP! Cover, TWO! Briscoe stays in this but MVP drags him up. MVP hits a FISHERMAN SUPLEX! Bridging cover, TWO! Not quite perfect but the fans rally. Briscoe fires forearms on MVP, MVP hits back. MVP whips, but Briscoe ducks ‘n’ dodges to CLOBBER MVP!
The fans fire up while MVP and Briscoe are both down! Briscoe and MVP crawl, Private Party is fired up, and we get hot tags to Shelton and Zay! Zay ROCKS Shelton, springboards and CROSSBODIES! Zay then bobs ‘n’ weaves to fire “SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS!” Shelton shoves Zay but Zay pop-up DROPKICKS! The fans fire up with Zay, he tags Quen. MVP runs in, Private Party dodges to DOUBLE DORPKICK! Shelton’s back up, but he gets DOUBLE DROPKICKS! Lashley storms in but into DOUBLE DROPKICKS! Lashley rebounds, but into DOUBLE DORPKICKS again! Lashley falls out and fans fire up!
Private Party holds the way open for Briscoe to DIVE! The cannonball tope takes Lashley out! But MVP & Shelton both back suplex! Private Party lands out, and they both dodge! Quen PELES Shelton, Zay QUEBRADAS MVP! The fans fire up again as Private Party focuses on MVP. Quen whips Zay and Zay LARIATS MVP and himself up and out of the ring! Shelton spins Quen around to kick low! Shelton brings Quen up but Quen fights the bomb! Quen then hits a JUMPING FLATLINER! Cover, TWO!! Quen almost hit Paydirt on the Standard of Excellence, but we see Lashley THROW Briscoe overhead and to the floor!
Quen calls to Zay and then sets up. Zay runs in, PARTY IN MOTION! Zay brings Shelton around, Quen kicks low! TWIST OF- NO, Shelton stops that, and feeds Quen to a MILE HIGH SPINEBUSTER!

Winners: The Hurt Syndicate, by pinfall
MVP raises the hands of his associates, and they just got a pin on the AEW World Tag Team Championships! Will nothing stop Shelton & Lashley from taking those titles off of Private Party?
BREAKING NEWS for Dynamite!
After Swerve Strickland almost got his revenge on Ricochet, these two will have THREE WEEKS to prepare themselves for a showdown! Dynamite will be in Atlanta, Georgia on February 5th, who will survive this grudge match?
Jeff Jarrett is here!
Cincinnati cheers as Double J makes his way to the ring, and he grabs a mic to say, “What’s up, Cincinnati? Y’know, the last few weeks, I mean, they sure have been humbling for me.” But then before he can say more, MJF makes his way out here! The fans are torn seeing the Wolf of Wrestling strut out here, and he has them cut his music. MJF steps into the ring with Jarrett, throws his gum into the crowd, and says, “Humbling? Jeff Jarrett, you have yet to learn the definition of the word. Last week, I gave you the opportunity of a lifetime, bud. And you had the audacity to turn me down?”
Jarrett tells Max to not even get started. MJF was too lazy to enter the gauntlet, so he came up with some scheme- MJF shouts for Jarrett to NEVER interrupt him!! The fans boo but MJF cools off. He just wants “Jeffery” to get real. This is MJF. If MJF retired tomorrow, he’d go into the AEW Hall of Fame! He’s a living legend! Jarrett walks around like he is one, too, and he sure has the “dumb shmucks” convinced. But allow MJF to “school all the simple-minded folk on the real legacy of The Last Outlaw. Emphasis on ‘Last,’ because Jeff Jarrett is the last thing you see before your favorite wrestling company dies.”
The fans boo but Jarrett laughs that off. MJF tells Double J that this last year with the possibility of him winning MJF’s Triple B would be “a whole lot cuter and warmer and fuzzier” if Jarrett wasn’t “literally the definition of a pro-wrestling grim reaper.” The fans boo, MJF says he is talking, so what’re they doing? Shut up! MJF continues by saying that when he thinks on Jarrett’s career, it is enough to make him wanna drink. Oh… Sorry, MJF took it way too far. He knows Jarrett is a raging alcoholic. Recovering! Sorry, MJF meant recovering. But hey, MJF just had a great idea! “Listen to me, you fat skank, I’m talking, shut your fat mouth!”
The fans boo but MJF goes on to say he has a great idea. How about for the health of AEW and for Jarrett, MJF sends Jarrett packing back to rehab where he belongs. But hey, do MJF a favor before then. Make sure that sexy wife of his, Karen, sticks around. MJF happens to be a big fan of hers. But hey, he’s not a monster, he’s the Salt of the Earth. So when MJF’s “through with her,” he’ll ship her back to Tennessee for Jarrett. That way, Jarrett can be the first man in history to know what a generational talent and an Olympic gold medalist’s nuts taste like!! The fans boo but Jarrett still laughs MJF off.
“Max, Max, Max… Not only everything you just said was crude and stupid, but it’s all been said before a thousand times. It’s all been done before a thousand times. But let’s get to the heart of the matter, Max. Let’s get to business.” Jarrett knows the best years of his career are behind him. But last Summer, when Jarrett entered the Owen Hart Cup, the AEW fans awakened a passion in him. The fans cheer that! The fans awakened a desire Jarrett didn’t even know he still had. And Jarrett will do everything in his power to keep that fire going, to keep that passion going, because it’s the one thing that puts him on track to the AEW World Championship.
The fans cheer again, and Jarrett tells Max, back to that shtick. MJF thinks he can just poke fun at Jarrett, have his zingers, and hurt Jarrett’s feelings, right? Oh, Max, Jarrett was MJF before MJF was MJF! Everything MJF can say or do, Jarrett has done. He did it before MJF, and he did it better than you. But hey, hold on! Before we get all bent out of shape, MJF kinda confused Jarrett. Jarrett isn’t sure if MJF’s a dumbass or a scumbag. But knowing where MJF comes from, maybe it’s all the above. Because hear Jarrett out, there are days where Jarrett feels sorry for MJF. The fans chant, “He’s Our Scumbag!” and Jarrett agrees.
But see, Jarrett has some family history on this scumbag. MJF had a tough upbringing. It must’ve been tough being raised by a call girl for a mother. And MJF’s ambulance chancing attorney of an old man, well, it must be tough being raised by that. Jarrett knows for a fact that when Mr. Friedman knocked Mrs. Friedman up, she still made him pay for that. MJF is seething but Jarrett tells him to hold on. The old saying goes, “We all marry our mommies.” So that’s very fitting for MJF when his old lady is nothing but a Canadian call girl.
And oh, one final thing. This very ring, the night MJF was tearing the house down with Will Ospreay, that was just his version of 60 Minutes Through. At the same time, in the back parking lot, his old lady was doing her version of 60 Minutes Through, with about ten other wrestlers! Max, look at Jarrett! MJF needs Jarrett, and he doesn’t even know why. But it’s because MJF is drowning in his own s*it! MJF may be lazy, entitled, and a pr*ck, but deep down, he’s a scared little boy. MJF was scared to enter the enter the gauntlet, scared that at just 28 years of age, his best years are behind him, and he’s scared of ever getting back on top.
And like Jarrett said last week, MJF is scared of becoming a one hit wonder! The fans chant “One Hit Wonder!” at MJF, but MJF says no no no! One Hit Wonder? Scared? MJF is NOTHING like Jarrett! MJF didn’t need his daddy to make him a top guy, MJF didn’t need to start his own company to be a top guy, because MJF made MJF! We saw in the past what happens when Jarrett is “King of the Mountain,” but let’s talk about when MJF is king. MJF is the only man to thank for the biggest pro-wrestling show of all time: 82 THOUSAND, Wembley Stadium, AEW All In! MJF is the one to thank for the record PPV buys, record TV ratings, and record ticket sales!
MJF was the BEST IN THE WORLD! The fans do cheer that. MJF says Jarrett can laugh all he wants, because then MJF got screwed. Screwed out of his world championship! His name, his legacy, his reputation, dragged through the mud to this day! The same people who put MJF on a pedestal now have willingly, with a smile on their face, taken it out from under and treated him like nothing! MJF ain’t nothing! And MJF will tell Jeff something! MJF doesn’t want to win the world title, he NEEDS to win it so he can shove it down every single one of their throats! But instead, MJF has to wait in line for Jeff Jarrett?
MJF laughs and say should on here. With all due respect, the people aren’t very bright. And with all due respect, no wrestling fan has ever given a single, solitary s*it about Jarrett. But y’know what really pisses MJF off, Slapnuts? The fact that “just because” Jarrett was best friends with Owen Hart, Jarrett thinks he his owed a grand finale? Jarrett may have had all these stupid, simple-minded shmucks convinced, but MJF sees through Jarrett’s BS. During the Owen Cup, Jeff saw through the “carny succubus.” Jarrett is nothing more than a LEECH, riding the coattails of his DEAD FRIEND!
Oh, did MJF strike a chord now? He thought Jarrett was all tough. Or does he just not like it when MJF talks about his old pal, Owen Hart? JARRETT DECKS MJF! Jarrett rains down fists and the fans fire up! Security rushes out there and they drag Jarrett away, but Jarrett throws them all away! Jarrett CLOBBERS MJF, but Karen rushes out here! Karen gets Jeff to stop, but then MJF grabs Karen in a SLEEPER! The fans boo, MJF throws Karen at Jeff, then runs away. The Wolf of Wrestling is again a worm, will The Last Outlaw make sure to exterminate him once and for all?

AEW hears from the Men’s Casino Gauntlet participants.
Roderick Strong tells “JAAAAY… White,” that Roddy should’ve won that #1 spot in the Casino Gauntlet, but he wants White to know that Roddy’s not done with him yet. The Switchblade’s response is that Roddy Strong shoulda-coulda-woulda. If Roddy wanted to win so badly, he should’ve tried harder. As for Wheeler Yuta, he was the one to stop White. So if Yuta wants White’s attention, then fine! He’s got it! As for Adam Cole, he said that match had the best of the best. It had Hangman Page, it had Daniel Garcia, and- Kyle O’Reilly stops Cole there. Danny Garcia? Really? Kyle doesn’t see it. Not everyone is as good as they say they are, Adam.
Garcia himself says people keep saying that Garcia is stretching himself just a little bit thin. If he’s TNT Champion, why’s he in the Continental Classic? Why’s he in a Casino Gauntlet? Garcia wants to fight every single week! So if you want a shot at Garcia’s gold… Cole says The Undisputed Kingdom IS as good as they say they are, and in 2025, they promise us… #LetsGetIt! The Kingdom will get their hands on gold, and that is undisputed! Everyone’s gunning for someone, but who gets what they want? And who gets just what they deserve?
Backstage interview with Jeff Jarrett.
AEW returns as Renee Paquette is with Double J, and she brings up that confrontation between him and MJF. Jarrett said the AEW audience has awoken the passion in him, and that MJF is scared. But then MJF got under Jarrett’s skin, so where do they go from here? Jarrett takes a moment to think, but then Dustin Rhodes steps in! The Natural says what MJF said pissed him off, too. Dustin asks Jarrett, “How many years have we known each other? How many years have we driven up and down these roads, grinding our asses off because of the passion and love for this business? A lot. He doesn’t know a thing about that, and you know that.”
Dustin says MJF’s been in this business a minute, yet he’ll dictate to Jarrett and disrespect him? THAT pisses Dustin off! Dustin is 110% behind Jarrett, and wants Jarrett to fulfill the dream of becoming AEW World Champion. Max doesn’t know everything that guys like Jarrett and Dustin have been through. Knocked down, dragged through s*it, and then gotten back up, because that’s what they do! MJF has no clue! Whatever MJF does to Jarrett, Dustin knows Jarrett’s been through it. Just like Dustin has. But remember this: You’re Jeff Jarrett! A 12-TIME WORLD CHAMPION, and that means something!
Jarrett is the Last Outlaw, and outlaws never die. So please, just remember this. The two of them, they are the very last of their kind. Will this motivation from the dual ROH World Tag Team & ROH World Six Man Tag Champion be fuel on the fire that Jarrett uses to reach the mountaintop?
Mariah May is here!
The Glamour brings her AEW Women’s World Championship to commentary as she prepares to watch the women’s division fight for their shot at her.
AEW Women’s World Championship #1 Contender’s Casino Gauntlet!
The gentlemen had their fun, now the ladies finally get to roll the dice! The first-ever Women’s Casino Gauntlet will send one woman to Grand Slam: Australia, who faces “The Woman From Hell” when AEW goes Down Under?
Kris Statlander is first, a right she earned when she defeated Willow Nightingale and Toni Storm in last week’s Triple Threat. But who starts with her? It’s JAMIE HAYTER! Hayter Hits Hard, but will she punch her ticket to Australia? The bell rings, we’re on the clock, and Mariah thanks commentary for having her. She also asks Taz that now that he’s got a new knee, wanna roll around later? Taz says he is happily married but he’s flattered by the offer. Oh, she meant in the ring. Well, Taz is also retired, so he can’t. Meanwhile, Hayter and Kris tie up, go around, go along the ropes, and the fans duel.
Mariah says Hayter is the best woman to come out of Britain not named Mariah May. The ref counts a ropebreak but Hayter and Kris move off ropes. Hayter headlocks, Kris powers up but can’t pull out as Hayter holds on. Kris tries again, gets free, and they RAM shoulders! The fans cheer as neither woman budges. Hayter runs, RAMS Kris again, then kicks low! Hayter runs, Kris dodges and she runs Hayter over! The fans fire up while Kris flexes, but Hayter stands up. Hayter runs up, Kris avoids a boot but Hayter ducks a roundhouse. Hayter ripcords, Kris ducks the lariat and comes back, but now Hayter dodges!
Both women run in, and DOUBLE LARIATS collide! Neither woman falls, but then Hayter BOOTS Kris! The fans fire up and Mariah says she might actually prefer fighting someone tonight so she won’t have to fly down to Australia. Hayter CLUBS away on Kris, kicks her down, then brings her up for a suplex. Kris slips free, shoves Hayter, but Hayter rebounds. Hayter ducks a lariat, the countdown is here, but Kris kicks low! FISHERMAN BUSTER! But number three is here, and it’s… MEGAN BAYNE!? Even Mariah is shocked to see “The Megasus” return to AEW after quite the stint in Stardom, GCW, and has even won the HOG Women’s Championship!
Mariah laughs in disbelief, is Bayne even eligible for this match? Where’s her “is All Elite” graphic? Go ask Tony Khan where that tweet is! Bayne still steps into the ring, and she stands face to face with Kris! The fans fire up as the forearms fly! Bayne ROCKS Kris, RAMS her into the corner again and again, then CHOPS! Bayne whips corner to corner, runs up, and SPLASHES! Then she whips again, but Kris reverses! Kris UPPERCUTS Bayne, runs corner to corner, but Bayne LEAPING LARIATS! The fans fire up and Bayne hauls Kris to her feet. Bayne suplexes, Kris fights that to suplex, but Bayne fights back!
Bayne suplexes to FALCON ARROW! Cover, Hayter breaks it! The fans fire up as now Hayter stares Bayne down. Hayter fires forearms, but Bayne is not impressed! Hayter runs, but Bayne kicks her low! Bayne reels Hayter in, suplexes, and she holds Hayter up! The countdown is back, but Hayter counters with a DDT! The fourth woman is here, and it’s… JULIA HART! The Princess of the Black Throne got a win off Hayter not that long ago, and she dares Hayter to come back for more! They brawl at the ramp! The fans fire up as Hayter CLUBS away on Julia, then snap suplexes her on the ramp! Julia writhes, Kris and Bayne brawl ringside, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Mariah is only a little worried, but Hayter CLUBS away on Julia in the ring. Bayne sends Kris into barriers! Hayter and Julia fire fists, then Hayter ROCKS Julia! Hayter whips, Julia reverses and wrenches to STO! Cover, Kris breaks it! Kris drags Julia up but Julia JAWBREAKERS free! Julia fires forearms, then whips, but Kris reverses. Kris runs in at the corner, but Julia STOMPS her down! Julia storms around, goes to the far corner, then runs back in. But Kris hits a SNAP POWERSLAM! Kris drags Julia up, TOSSES her out, and Bayne is there to scoop Julia! SLAM to the floor! Julia writhes but Bayne storms into the ring.
Kris and Bayne meet again, and Bayne pie faces Kris! Kris pie faces back! The pie faces go back and forth, then turn into forearms! Kris and Bayne fire fast ‘n’ furious shots, then Bayne ROKCS Kris! Bayne runs, but Kris ROCKS her! Kris runs, but Bayne follows to ROCK her back! Bayne runs, but Kris UPEPRCUTS her! And CHOPS! And ROCKS! And CHOPS! Repeat! Kris keeps on Bayne again and again, then runs, only for Bayne to fireman’s carry! Kris fights free, ROUNDHOUSES Bayne, then PELES! Kris roars, runs, but gets caught! EXPLODER! Bayne fires up, and Julia POSTS Hayter! Julia stomps away on Hayter, Bayne brings Kris up, and snap suplexes her!
Maximum Carnage returns to single picture as Kris flops out of the ring. Julia CLUBS Hayter, and the countdown is back! Bayne waits on the fifth woman, and it’s… WILLOW NIGHTINGALE! Mariah sighs, but the Babe with the Power steps right to Bayne! Willow BOOTS, but Bayne just frowns. Willow fires forearms, then whips, but Bayne reverses to ROCK Willow! And BOOT her down! Kris returns to waistlock Bayne, but she ducks an elbow! JAWBREAKER, HAYMAKER, then Kris CLUBS away on Bayne! Hayter turns things around on Julia and whips her hard into barriers! Willow & Kris work together to DOUBLE SUPLEX Bayne!
The fans fire up, and Kris & Willow smile as it’s like the old days. Mariah mocks the “friendship” while the two square up. Willow CHOPS Kris, Kris CHOPS back, repeat! The fans “WOO~” as each CHOP echoes out! Willow ducks a chop, shoves Kris, then runs to POUNCE~! PERIOD! The countdown is back already, and the sixth woman is… TONI STORM! The Rockstar “Rookie” is back, and Mariah really hates seeing this. Toni storms in in but willow fireman’s carries! Toni sunset flips, TWO! Willow storms up but into a snapmare! Toni RUNS Willow over, snapmares Julia and runs her over!
Hayter is back, Toni snapmares her to run her over! Then a snapmare and shoulder tackle for Kris! The fans fire up with Toni and Mariah mockingly plays along, “What a great rookie!” But Bayne CLOBBERS Toni! Bayne fireman’s carries Toni, then THROWS her out onto Kris! The fans rally, “She’s a Rookie!” Willow CLOBBERS Bayne! Hayter BOOTS Willow! Julia kicks Hayter to DDT! Willow LARIATS Julia! The fans fire up as Willow stands tall, and she goes to the apron. CROSSBODY onto Bayne! Willow smiles and poses, the fans cheer, and Willow drags Bayne up. Bayne and Willow throw hands, but Kris is on the stage?
The fans fire up as Kris SUPER CANNONBALLS! Down goes Willow & Bayne, and the fans fire up with Kris! But Toni HIP ATTACKS Kris off the apron! Julia BLASTS Toni! Julia and Hayter are all alone, Cincy fires up for “Women’s Wrestling!” but also the countdown! Julia and Hayter fire fast ‘n’ furious fists, but the seventh woman is… HARLEY CAMERON! Mariah sighs again as everyone now will FEEL THE WRATH! Harley runs up to ROCK Julia, then bump her off buckles! Harley goes up, in, and dodges Julia to ENZIGIRI! Cover, Hayter breaks it with a deadlift GERMAN SUPLEX! Hayter snarls but Julia runs up to clinch!
Hayter wrenches free, clinches, and HAYT-BREAKER! But Harley rolls Hayter up! TWO!! Hayter escapes, Harley ENZIGIRIS! “FEEL THA WRATH~!” Harley runs, but into a HAYT-BREAKER! Hayter pumps up, for the HAYTER- NO, Harley ducks the lariat! But Julia’s BLACK MIST hits Harley full in the face! Then SUPERKICK for Hayter! Julia runs to BLINDSIDE LARIAT! But Toni snatches Julia into a cradle! TONI WINS!!
Winner: Toni Storm, by pinfall (NEW #1 Contender to the AEW Women’s World Championship)
Mariah is mockingly happy for “the rookie,” and Toni herself is stunned that she’s getting a world title match in her home country! This is quite the remake of a timeless classic, but will they flip the script on the original? Or will it still be All About Mariah?
AEW World Championship: Jon Moxley w/ The Death Riders VS “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs!
The last time The Maniac was in the Book of Hobbs, it was AEW Homecoming, and it was for the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship. Moxley didn’t so much win as he did retain, given Hobbs went down with injury rather quickly. But while Moxley traded NJPW’s top title for AEW’s, Hobbs only has a bigger chip on his shoulder. Will Hobbs come through on his promise to make Jon Moxley his b*tch? Or will Moxley make sure his homecoming is a victorious one?
The introductions are made, but Moxley delays getting in the ring so that the rest of the Death Riders can flank the ring! Hobbs sees Pac, he sees Claudio, but then Moxley runs in and CLOBBERS Hobbs! The bell rings, the fans boo, but Moxley fires forearms in a corner! Moxley doesn’t stop as the ref counts, the ref tries to back him off, but Moxley gets in the ref’s face about it. Hobbs storms up to hoist Moxley up! OVERHEAD SUPLEX! Hobbs fires hands on Moxley now, the fans fire up, but the ref counts. Hobbs ROCKS Moxley, then stalks him to a corner. Hobbs CLUBS Moxley in the chest, then stalks him to another corner.
Hobbs pushes Moxley against buckles, CLUBS him again, then paces. The fans rally, Hobbs whips, but Moxley KCIKS and CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS! Hobbs just scowls, so Moxley fires forearms! Moxley runs, but Hobbs RUNS Moxley over! The fans fire up, but there are some Moxley fans still in Cincy. Hobbs goes out after Moxley and ROCKS him! Moxley dangles over barriers, but Hobbs CLUBS him! The ref wants this in the ring so Hobbs pushes him in. Hobbs storms in, Moxley fires kicks, then fires forearms! Moxley runs, BOOTS Hobbs, and he has Hobbs in the ropes!
Moxley runs, BOOTS Hobbs again, then he runs! Moxley DIVES and hits Hobbs into barriers! Moxley pursues, they go around the timekeeper’s area, and now they brawl in the crowd! The fans fire up, Hobbs CHOPS Moxley, but the ref wants this in the ring! Hobbs pursues Moxley, CLUBS him, then keeps after him. They go back to ringside, Hobbs CLAWS Moxley’s back, then shoves him over barriers! Hobbs stalks Moxley back into the ring, Moxley wants Hobbs to hold on, and then Moxley CLAWS Hobbs’ face! Then he BITES Hobbs’ face! Moxley has Hobbs in a corner and rains down fists! The fans count to TEN, then Moxley flips Hobbs off!
Cincy is all fired up, both for and against Moxley, but Hobbs just glares up at him. Moxley talks trash, but Hobbs carries Moxley from the corner! Moxley fires elbows, but Hobbs RAMS him into buckles! Hobbs puts Moxley up top, climbs up after him, and he pulls on that earring in Moxley’s left ear! Hobbs tells the ref to back off, and then he BITES Moxley’s ear! And then BITES it again! Is he trying to eat the earring?! The ref counts, Hobbs lets off and lets Moxley tumble while fans tell him he’s sick. Moxley staggers up, but Hobbs BLASTS him off the apron! The fans rally while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Hobbs snarls, just a bit of blood in his teeth from biting Moxley. Hobbs paces while Marina Shafir checks on Moxley. Hobbs then goes out the side, storms around the way, and he looms over Moxley. Hobbs whips Moxley into barriers! Moxley tumbles over and into the timekeeper’s area! Hobbs is after Moxley with a rain of fists! The ref reprimands, Hobbs stops and goes back to the ring. Hobbs then goes back out to fetch Moxley. Hobbs BITES the ear again! Moxley pushes Hobbs away and staggers around, that ear definitely bleeding. Hobbs storms up to BITE the ear more! Hobbs is going savage, but Moxley dares him to do more!
Moxley fires a forearm, but Hobbs juts ROCKS Moxley! Moxley staggers away, Hobbs pursues him to the steel steps, and they both go back to the ring. Moxley staggers around a little more, and Hobbs pumps up! Hobbs ROCKS Moxley again! Moxley bounces off ropes then falls over! Hobbs stalks Moxley, drags him up, and he ROCKS Moxley again! Moxley wobbles but stays up, even with that ear bleeding. Moxley fires a forearm, but Hobbs shrugs that off. Moxley fires another forearm, and another, and another! Hobbs ROCKS Moxley again! Moxley falls over, the ref checks him, but Moxley is already rising back up.
Moxley pounds the mat, and he eggs Hobbs on. Hobbs BOOTS Moxley down! Moxley rises, the blood from his ear making more a crimson scarf than a mask. Hobbs BOOTS Moxley again! Moxley roars, so Hobbs BOOTS him again! Maximum Carnage returns to single picture as Moxley rises up. Hobbs BOOTS him, but Moxley SLAPS Hobbs! Hobbs runs, but into a CUTTER! Moxley lured Hobbs into a trap, but both men are down! The fans fire up as Moxley crawls, and Moxley dares Hobbs to bring the fight. Both men stand, Moxley fires a forearm, but Hobbs returns fire! The fans are torn as the forearms go back and forth!
Hobbs runs, Moxley TOSSES him out! Moxley distracts the ref so that Marina can BOOT Hobbs! The fans definitely boo that, but Moxley goes out to drag Hobbs up. Moxley puts Hobbs in, takes aim, and then underhooks Hobbs! Hobbs powers up, breaks free, then CLOBBERS Moxley! Moxley flounders to a corner, the fans rally and duel, and Hobbs feeds off the “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” Hobbs runs up to CLOBBER Moxley! Moxley rises, Hobbs LARIATS again! Mox is back up, Hobbs SPLASHES in the corner! Hobbs winds up to fire point-blank LARIATS in the corner again and again! The fans rally, Hobbs stops at the ref’s count.
Hobbs scoops, Moxley slips free! Underhook and- NO, Hobbs scoops Moxley! WORLD’S STRONGEST SLAM!! Cover, TWO!! Moxley survives, Marina is relieved, but Hobbs puts Moxley on the top rope. Hobbs climbs, scoops, and lifts Moxley for a SUPER SWINGING POWERSLAM! But Moxley rolls through to have the ARMBAR!! Moxley pulls on the arm, Hobbs endures, and the fans duel even harder! Moxley pulls but Hobbs manages to clasp hands! Hobbs turns and has the ROPEBREAK! Moxley lets go, but then he has Hobbs for a KIMURA int he ropes! The ref counts, Moxley stops and Hobbs crawls to the ramp.
The fans hope these two “FIGHT FOREVER!” but this show has to end somehow. Hobbs rises, and WHEELER YUTA BUSAIKU KNEES!! The Decoder finally shows himself and it was at the most opportune time! The fans boo as Yuta then slithers away, and Moxley goes out after Hobbs. Moxley drags Hobbs into the ring, then vows to end this! But Hobbs hits a SPINEBUSTER!! The fans fire up and Hobbs brings down the straps! Hobbs snarls, brings Moxley up into a torture rack, but Moxley slips free! SLEEPER! Hobbs goes to the ropes, BUCKS Moxley, but then Marina SMACKS Hobbs with the title briefcase!!
The fans boo again but Moxley rolls Hobbs up! TWO?!?! Hobbs survives another cheap shot and the fans fire up! Moxley underhooks, PARADIGM SHIFT!! Cover, TWO!??! Moxley is furious but he clamps on the BULLY CHOKE!! Hobbs endures, but he fades out! Moxley wins!!
Winner: Jon Moxley, by submission (still AEW World Champion)
Hobbs lost only because this turned into a 5v1 handicap match! And speaking of, that’s what’s happening again as The Death Riders mug Hobbs! They stomp away, then sit Hobbs up. Claudio has a chair! But Hobbs THROWS Yuta, CHOKES Pac, but Claudio CHOP BLOCKS the bad leg! Claudio pulls the leg brace off while Pac & Mox CHOKE Hobbs! Yuta adds stomps, and Moxley SMASHES the bad leg! Claudio puts the chair around the bad leg, they want to put Hobbs back on the shelf! Claudio STOMPS the chair!! But here comes Rated FTR!! A little too late, unfortunately, and The Death Riders retreat.
Adam Copeland, Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood check on Hobbs, but there’s a chance the 12 Man Tag just turned into a 6v5 Handicap Match. Will anyone ever be able to stop Moxley’s reign of terror? Or will the carnage not end with Collision?
My Thoughts:
A great episode for AEW, though I’m not sure on their own claim of “It’s like a PPV on TV!” I only say that because we got the usual TV level shenanigans in a few of these matches. Omega VS Cage was a great match for Omega’s return to AEW, but Omega VS Gabe at WrestleDynasty is a hard act to follow. Great win for Omega, but of course The Don Callis Family beats him up. A little surprised they also got the better of Ospreay, but when it was 4v2, that made sense. I’m sure we’ll get Omega & Ospreay against like, Archer & Cage, that’s a win, and then Omega & Ospreay face Kyle & Konosuke. Maybe that’s another win, maybe not, but it feels like they want Omega VS Konosuke for something big, especially while Konosuke is a double champion.
Very good promo from MVP before the Six Man Tag, but did we need a New York Minute with Jericho? Well, I guess it had to happen some time so Jericho could get his digs in on Rated FTR, but maybe it could’ve been after the Six Man Tag? We got that promo and the Mercedes Mone vignette between MVP’s promo and the Six Man Tag and it seemed like an odd choice. Mone’s promo was still good stuff, and an idea of Mone VS Athena is floating around the fandom. I feel like they’d save that closer to All In: Texas, as Athena is from Texas. That’s months from now but I could still see both Mone and Athena having the belts they have now going into that match.
Great Six Man Tag but I figured the Hurt Syndicate would win. And while we got a good promo from all the different Casino Gauntlet entries, I really hope TK isn’t pivoting away from Garcia VS Shelton for the TNT Championship. Granted, Kyle O’Reilly VS Daniel Garcia would make an awesome one-off. Jay White VS Roddy Strong will also be a really good 1v1 match, but I would think White sticks to going after Yuta and the Death Riders. Very good promo from Ricochet, in that he barely got to say anything because of the Heel heat he’s got. Swerve & Nana getting the drop on Ricochet was good stuff, too, but I have no idea why we’re waiting THREE WEEKS for their match when it won’t even be on Grand Slam: Australia or anything.
Okada VS Ishii for Collision is great stuff, but I don’t understand when that promo they showed happened. Did I somehow miss it last Saturday on Collision? Or was that supposed to be part of tonight’s show that they had to trim for time? And I think I can see why they’d have to trim it: MJF and Jeff Jarrett took too damn long to get to the point. Both guys made good points, but they either played to the crowd too much, or Jarrett was searching for the words to insult MJF back. Dustin having a part was good, too, but I don’t see him factoring into the rest of the story.
Great match from Christian VS Hook, and I suppose the disqualification finish protects both sides. Was Joe out that long for injury? It’s the only thing that would explain why Joe never returned to finish things with Jericho while it was still relevant. Now, Joe, Hook & Shibata are feuding with Patriarchy instead Great stuff with the Women’s Casino Gauntlet, such as Megan Bayne making a great return to AEW. Though I’m sure they could’ve added a couple more entrants to beef this up a bit more. Again, maybe time constraints because of MJF and Jarrett. But in the end, what a clever way to get us back to Mariah VS Toni. There’s literally a month left to build this, I can’t wait to see the promos from “new girl” Toni with “veteran” Mariah.
And of course, a great match from Moxley VS Hobbs, especially with Hobbs going for ear blood. But of course The Death Riders got involved all over the place to screw Hobbs out of that win. At least Hobbs still got to look strong surviving as many cheap tactics as he did. But I really hate the trope of a Face rescue that’s “a little too late.” If Rated FTR was here, and they were seeing this happen, why not get out there before Hobbs’ knee gets chair guillotined? I understand them wanting to put the cliche “pressure” on the Faces for Collision, as Hobbs is the strongest part of that team and now he’s far less than 100%, but c’mon. Also, pretty sure The Death Riders will abandon The Learning Tree to have them lose to Rated FTRunners, as they’re above such a mess of a match.
My Score: 8.7/10

Attitude Of Aggression #301- 10th Annual Swaggy Awards Part 1
The Swaggy Awards return for their 10th annual installment. This year’s show is again split into two awesome parts so tune in to see who won!
The Attitude Of Aggression returns for the 10th Annual Swaggy Awards, our annual celebration of the best-of-the-best in pro wrestling for 2024. It’s hard to believe that we have been doing this for a decade, but here we are. The guys again decided to split the Swaggy Awards into two parts. Here on Part 1 of the Swaggys, we have our largest panel yet as Dave was joined by Swaggy veterans, PC Tunney, AJ Balaz, and Kinny Killa for this celebration of the past year in pro wrestling. But we also welcome to the Swaggys DJ & Rob from The Mindless Wrestling Podcast, as well as welcoming back to the show the one and only Rey Ca$h. Here on Part 1, the gang passed out some virtual hardware in categories such as Breakout Star of the Year, Rivalry of the Year, Storyline of the Year, PPV/PLE of the Year, and much, much more. And, of course, there is our unsanctioned award (IYKYK). You never know what will happen on the Swaggys. Who walked away with the gold and the glory here on Part 1? Tune in and find out.
