Backstage interview with Billie Starkz.

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

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

Backstage interview with QT Marshall.

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

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

New Year’s Day is a NEW ERA for AEW!

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

Mercedes Mone & Kamille arrive backstage.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Quen lands out, kicks, but Malakai easily blocks it! Quen shoves Malakai, Malakai ELBOWS Quen down! Malakai drags Quen up, Bowens tags in off him, and the fans fire up as Malakai and BOwens stare down. Bownes rusn up on Quen, and he turns hip toss into hip toss!

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

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

Backstage interview with Orange Cassidy.

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

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

MJF VS Roderick Strong!

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

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

MJF scrambles into the ring, wants mercy, but Roddy CHOPS him again! MJF runs away up the ramp! Roddy chases him down and CLUBS him down! Roddy CLUBS MJF back to ringside, then CHOPS him again! Roddy swings, MJF dodges, then dodges again! Roddy CHOPS the POST! MJF bares some crossbars and he puts Roddy’s fingers in the gap! MJF bends the fingers! The ref reprimands, MJF lets go at 4, and he refreshes the ring count. MJF then wrenches the bad hand, tucks it into Roddy’s tights, and then gut wrenches to APRON POWERBOMB! Roddy falls to the floor and MJF smirks as he leaves Roddy behind.

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

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

The fans fire up as Roddy fires elbow after elbow, then he torture racks! MJF reaches out, but Roddy REVERSE LAWN DARTS! JUMP KNEE! ANGLE SLAM! Cover, TWO! MJF survives but Roddy huffs ‘n’ puffs. The fans rally, Roddy hauls MJF up, but MJF wrenches and WRINGS the bad arm! Both men are down and the fans rally again. Roddy and MJF go to opposite ends, and Roddy is on the apron.

There will be no Friday Night Rampage next week, because it will be a BACK-TO-BACK Rampage & Collision Saturday night! Make sure your DVR is ready for three hours of AEW action!

Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa.

Lexy is with La Mera Mera and brings up how next week will be an ALL LUCHA Rampage. That must be exciting. Rosa is beyond excitement! It is about time they get some lucha libre to spice up Rampage. Atlantis Jr, Hechicero, and the return of Mystico! C’mon, now! Well what about Rosa? Yes, what about Rosa? Rosa hasn’t had a true lucha match in awhile, but why not? An open challenge for any luchadora or female wrestler that wants after La Mera Mera! In steps Harley Cameron, wearing a Hologram mask, and putting on a robot voice. “Greetings. I am famed luchadora, Harley-gram, the female counterpart to Hologram.”

Rosa is trying not to laugh as “Harley-gram” officially accepts the open challenge. Rosa tells Harley-gram that she looks familiar. Like a certain someone she beat two weeks ago. Does not compute with Harley-gram. Okay, fine. Compute this: Next week, Rosa will yank her cord and shut her down! OH SHUT UP! What? Uh… Danger! Danger, Will Robinson! Danger! “Harley-gram” runs off and Rosa asks if this is really happening. Rosa sighs, but will she just have to reboot Harley back to factory settings?

Ricochet speaks.

“I have had my eyes on the International title since I debuted in AEW. And Takeshita has cost me my chance at becoming International Champion on more than one occasion. I was the last person to pin the International Champion, and I plan on doing it one more time, at Full Gear. At Full Gear, Takeshita finds out what the world already knows: That Ricochet is not from here. Ricochet is outta this world!” The King of Flight is determined to dethrone The Alpha. Will Ricochet become The One & Only International Champion?

A great battle from these factions, but it is Strong Style that wins out! Will this happen again when Ishii goes 1v1 with The Learning Tree? Or will Chris Jericho make sure the Age of Nueve lasts forever and ever?

My Thoughts:

A great Rampage here for the go-home to Full Gear, but it was definitely just a go-home. They’re even ending with the November Rain music video from last Saturday as I type this. Good promo from Ricochet to hype up his match with Takeshita, but that’s still a toss-up to me. A part of me does want Ricochet to have the International Champion so Takeshita can enter the Continental Classic and go after Okada like he was supposed to do just a month ago. It really depends on what the Don Callis Family story is going to be with Ospreay and Fletcher, as The Don Callis Family isn’t losing everything at Full Gear.

Great opening tag of Mariah & Mina VS Nyla & Harley, though I really thought that was going to be the main event. But at the same time, of course Mariah & Mina won. No tease for anything at Full Gear so maybe they’ll wait to surprise us with Toni Storm or something tomorrow. Harley becoming “Harley-gram” just to get a rematch with Rosa was hilarious stuff, as does that “All Lucha Rampage” episode they’re hyping up. But oh look, next week is back-to-back Rampage and Collision on a Saturday just to try and undercut Survivor Series. It won’t matter, I’m still watching WarGames and leaving AEW for after, but it’s nice of them to do everything on one night.

Very good filler match of Juice VS Butcher, that was a strong return to singles action for Juice. Very nice Zero Hour matches but I kinda wish they’d given us a segment on TV to set up Deonna VS Anna rather than just announcing it. Maybe there was something social media had but I’m still not someone who follows all the socials. And that Fatal 4 Way is awesome, can’t wait to see who comes out of that a winner. Good promo overall from Big Boom AJ and QT Marshall, but I’m not sure it needed to be a weigh-in. A press conference style segment would’ve been fine, or even a contract signing, but I guess they just wanted to set up QT’s “lay off the cookies” joke. QT stands tall with his cutter taking down AJ, so you can bet AJ dooms QT in the Zero Hour.

Also great Six Man Tag main event, though I don’t think I’ve ever seen a main event without entrances. Great win for Conglomeration, though, but yeah, Ishii sure ain’t winning the ROH World Championship.

My Score: 8.8/10
