PLAY BY PLAY
Paul Heyman talks with Roman Reigns in the private room.
Rey and Dominik Mysterio are not here but Heyman assures Roman they are acknowledging their Tribal Chief from their hospital beds. Roman stands up as Jimmy walks in. “What up, Uce?” Where is Jey? Another no show, but look! Jimmy finally got a hold of Jey. What did Jey say? Jey says he ain’t coming back. Roman gets upset. Roman takes Jey from being jus tone of the Usos to being #MainEventJey the Right Hand Man, and now he’s not showing up to work? Jimmy gets it, though. Jimmy ain’t nobody’s bitch, but he is here for Roman. Family, right? Jimmy’s got Roman! Roman sneers, and says Jimmy is claiming he can do what Jey does and be the Right Hand Man.
Well, Jimmy isn’t trying to be Jey but… So now he can’t? Jimmy can do what Jey does. Then prove it. Jimmy heads out, but how will he prove to the Head of the Table that he can be just as good as Jey?
Mixed Tag: Cesaro & Bianca Belair VS Seth Rollins & Bayley!
This might be the strongEST combination possible for a Mixed Tag Match! The Swiss Superman and the EST SmackDown Women’s Champion are looking to settle things with their respective nemeses in the arrogant Architect and rude Role Model! But before the match, Bianca has a mic to speak. “Wow…! What a night! It’s Friday, we’re on the road to Money in the Bank, and we are three weeks out from leaving the ThunderDome and coming home to you guys,” the WWE fans, “live and in person!”
And tonight, Bianca ’bout to whoop Bayley yet again! Bianca says after winning at Hell in a Cell, she cannot stop celebrating! She can’t stop shining the title, because she likes making it clean enough to see herself in. Not to be vain, but to remember that the girl in that reflection, “Oh, she did that. She persevered because Bayley threw everything at me other than the kitchen sink.” Chairs, kendo sticks, ladders, and even Bianca’s own hair! Bianca won’t forget that pain, but she also can’t stop smiling! That’s because Bianca left with the title! She is so proud of her reflection. Bianca didn’t allow Bayley the bully get to her.
Anyone dealing with your own Bayleys, let this be a reminder that you are so much more! “We are so much more powerful!” The bullies can scheme all day long and laugh in your face like the Wicked Witch of the West, but DING DONG, the witch is dead! But now Seth Rollins makes his entrance! Rollins joins Bianca in the ring and gets himself a mic to say, “Yes! A night for celebratin’ out here with the SmackDown Women’s Champion, the EST of WWE, Bianca Belaaair~!” And we are here celebrating because also at HIAC, they both overcame adversity! Bianca a little bit but Rollins a HUGE amount of it! The haters, the doubters and the trolls were beat when Rollins pinned “Zazaro” in the ring!
Rollins beat Cesaro from bell to bell, pillar to post, and now he’s movin’ on up. But before that, let’s celebrate! Bianca didn’t quite dominate like Rollins did. She kinda squeaked by, almost a fluke really. But that’s no reason not to celebrate! Win at any cost! High-five! Like the Kliq! Or maybe low five? Uh, who does he think he’s talking to? Because he’s teaming with Bayley. Yeah, she’ll be here to beat the hell out of Bianca, but they can’t high-five before then. Oh wait, here comes Bayley! She has a mic to tell Rollins not to waste his time with Bianca. Bayley was gonna come out and congratulate Bianca but she’s just bragging all over again! That’s not the kind of champion the fans need and deserve!
Bianca tells Bayley maybe she stops talking and get in the ring so Bianca can show her what kind of champion she is. Rollins says, “You asked for it! This is bad news! Be careful what you wish for!” Bayley gets in the ring and tells Bianca after her “fluke,” Bayley doesn’t look at her any differently than before. Bayley still sees the “same old pathetic Bianca BeLoser.” Rollins laughs at that but Bianca DECKS Bayley! Rollins gets between them but Bayle DECKS Bianca! Bayley hammers away on Bianca, stomps her, but Cesaro makes his way out! And he dodges Rollins to fire off jabs and EuroUppers! Cesaro clotheslines Rollins out, Bayley throws Bianca out!

Winners: Bayley & Seth Rollins, by pinfall
The Role Model just got a pin off the SmackDown Women’s Champion! Is this how Bayley is going to come back around and cash-in at MITB?
Jimmy Uso paces outside Roman’s room.
Paul Heyman walks out and Heyman seems a bit surprised to see Jimmy there. Jimmy asks Heyman what Roman means by “proving” himself tonight. Prove what? Heyman says that the family needs a Head of the Table and they have one in Roman. The family needs Roman to have a Right Hand Man. If Jey doesn’t want to do that anymore, then the family needs #MainEventJimmy. But we’re 35 minutes in, what does Roman need of him? Well, if there’s one thing Roman understands, it’s winning. Jimmy needs to win a match. Tonight? Yes, tonight! Well, okay. Then Heyman can go make that happen. Of course! Let’s do that. Jimmy will win for the family! Of course. Because if he doesn’t, well… Heyman heads out and the pressure is now on Jimmy. Will he crack under it?
SmackDown presents the official coronation of its new king!
“Hear ye, hear ye! Dutiful subjects of SmackDown!” Rick Boogs is here to present not just The King of Strong Style! No, no, but the ONE TRUE KING of all WWE: Shinsuke NakamurAAAAA~! The rock ‘n’ roll bard plays the theme, and here comes the once and future king! Nakamura takes his seat on the throne and Boogs takes the crown from its pedestal. Boogs puts it on Nakamura’s head, and it is officially official once more! ALL HAIL “KINGSUKE” NAKAMURA~~! Pat McAfee even does a Stone Cold but with water bottles.
Backstage interview with King- Er, Baron Corbin.
Kayla asks about his loss last week, but he cuts her off. Corbin lost the crown, his subjects, and more than that. “What’s the point?” Corbin walks away, will the Lone Wolf
Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville enjoy the coronation.
But Seth Rollins walks in and says the time has come! The time is now! What can they do for him, then? No, no, Mr. Pearce and Ms. Deville. What can he do for them and the entire WWE Universe! See, Roman has his State of the WWE Universe Address, and if the subject comes up about the next challenger… You’re looking at him. Rollins could sit here and list off his accolades but they both know how accomplished he is. Rollins has never been more prepared physically, emotionally and spiritually for this. And no one on this roster deserves the opportunity more than him.
Pearce is inclined to agree, but they’re not ready to make that decision. But Sonya says they will take this under advisement. Well, the time is now. Rollins lets management talk it over, but will they see things his way?
Men’s Money in the Bank Qualifying Match: Apollo Crews w/ Commander Azeez VS Big E!
While the WWE Intercontinental Champion has left the Powerhouse of Positivity behind in their own title chase, there is another chase they’re both still in the running for! Will the Pride of Nigeria continue to keep Big E behind him? Or will this be the day Apollo always remembers as the day Big E left him behind?
SmackDown returns as Apollo makes his entrance, Azeez right behind him. The bell rings, Apollo and Big E tie right up and go around the ropes. They end up in a corner, the ref calls for the break and Apollo pie faces Big E. Big E comes right back, ties up with Apollo again, and puts Apollo in the ropes to shove him right out! Apollo is furious but Big E eggs him on. Apollo takes a moment to cool off as the ring count climbs, and Azeez keeps Big E from getting close. The count is 7, Apollo gets in and he kicks Big E low to throw hands! Apollo ROCKS Big E, runs, but Big E CLOBBERS Apollo with an elbow! Cover, TWO!
Big E drags Apollo back up, whips him to a corner, then runs in, but into boots! Big E staggers, but he CLOBBERS Apollo again! Cover, TWO! Big E stalks Apollo and says they’re not done. Big E pulls Apollo through ropes and CLUBS him! Big E gets Apollo on the apron but Apollo holds ropes to resist the suplex. Apollo SUPERKICKS, then APRON DEATH VALLEY DRIVERS! Apollo roars and Big E is in a daze as SmackDown goes to break!
SmackDown returns again and Big E fights out of a chinlock with back elbows. Big E runs but Apollo dropkicks him right down! Cover, TWO! Apollo sits Big E up to punch him right in the forehead! And again! Azeez applauds and Apollo looks up at the briefcases hanging from the rafters. Apollo stomps Big E, wraps on a chinlock and grinds Big E to the mat. Big E endures, fights back up, but Apollo wrangles him down to a cover! ONE, but Apollo is back on the chinlock. Apollo thrashes Big E around, Big E endures and fights up as the ThunderDome rallies. Big E throws body shots again, but Apollo shoves him to a corner. Big E dodges and Apollo hits buckles, but Apollo fights the clinch!
Apollo snap suplexes and floats to the cover, TWO! Apollo mocks the “New! Day Rocks!” clapping and even the hip swivels. Apollo taunts Big E, Big E gets up and blocks Apollo’s clinch! Big E slips his arms inside to clinch and OVERHEAD Belly2Belly! And again! Big E baits Apollo into a third Belly2Belly! Big E swivels his hips while standing over Apollo, and he runs to BIG SPLASH! Big E claps now and watches Apollo rise. Apollo switches the waistlock and ROCKS Big E, then runs in at the corner, but into the Urenag- ARM-DRAG?! Apollo counters and then GERMAN SUPLEXES! And again! Apollo keeps hold to hit the hat trick! Cover, TWO!!
Apollo grits his teeth and Azeez is frustrated on his behalf. Apollo stomps around as he demands Big E stand up. Big E rises, Apollo reels him in, but no Olympic Slam! Roll up to a STRETCH MUFFLER! Apollo endures, reaches out, but Big E lifts him away from the ropes! Apollo keeps trying, Azeez helps and Apollo gets the ropebreak! The ref completely missed that, but Big E keeps his cool. Big E gets Apollo up, but Apollo ENZIGURIS! Big E falls over while Apollo leans on ropes. Apollo catches his breath, hobbles over and climbs a corner, but Big E ROCKS him first! Big E climbs up, CLUBS Apollo, throws forearms, and stands Apollo up.
Apollo fights back with body shots and clubbing forearms of his own! Apollo bumps Big E off the buckle then GAMANGIRIS Big E down! Big E is in a drop zone and Apollo climbs again, for a BIG FROG SPLASH!! Cover, TWO!! Apollo gets Big E up, STRAITJACKET GERMAN! Cover, TWO!! Big E is still in this and it infuriates Apollo! Big E bails out, Azeez keeps his eyes on him but the ref tells him to stay back. Apollo goes out, runs in, but into an Urenag-E! The ring count is climbing, Big E gets Apollo up and in at 8, but Azeez threw something to distract the ref! Azeez throws Big E, but the ref sees him before the Nigerian Nail can hit! The ref EJECTS Azeez!!
Azeez is furious but at least now things are truly 1v1! But Apollo rolls Big E up! TWO, and a scoop to the BIG ENDING!!! Cover, Big E wins!!
Winner: Big E, by pinfall (advances to the Men’s MITB Ladder Match)
Now THAT was big! Is this the beginning of the end of whoever might have a title the next 365 days?
Backstage interview with Sami Zayn.
Sami is sure Kayla wants to talk his win at HIAC. Sorry for busting in here but go ahead and ask. Well, after his vic- Actually, he wants to say something first. “This persecution that I’ve suffered over the last year really got me thinking that the world is a really twisted place.” Sami say nothing but chaos and injustice, no rhyme or reason. But after beating Kevin Owens at HIAC, there is truly order! The universe is a machine designed to issue cosmic justice, and Sami is its messenger! Sami isn’t one to exaggerate, but he really thinks this is the bets week of his life. Then is he not worried that he’ll face Kevin again, next week, in a MITB qualifier?
W-What? What’s she talking about? She just said it. Yeah, he heard the words but he isn’t understanding. Sami beat Kevin, put an end to Kevin, got the justice he was looking for, and now they’re sticking it to him again! They’re not gonna mess with Sami! They’re messing with karma and the COSMOS!! This is now the worst week of his life. Will next week make things even worse when Kevin comes back to show Sami some karma?
Sami goes to Adam Pearce.
Sami wants Pearce to explain to him how, after having beat Kevin Owens on PPV, he has to beat Kevin again just to get into the MITB Ladder Match? Why not just forget about that and put Sami in? Just put him in, or even just give him the briefcase! It’d be good for everyone! No, that’s not going to happen. Sami will have to qualify against Kevin next week. Why!? Because it’ll be a LAST MAN STANDING MATCH! So that’s a “no” on just giving him the briefcase? Yes. Okay but know this. Pearce is playing a very dangerous game! Not with Sami, but with karma! Sami leaves, but will Scrap Iron really be in the cosmos’ crosshairs?
Sonya Deville heads to the ring.
The WWE official and supervisor of the Raw and SmackDown Women’s Divisions is here with very important news! She will make the first selection into the SmackDown side of the Women’s MITB Qualifiers! We’ll hear who and why, after the break!
SmackDown returns and Sonya says it is her honor to announce the first entry from SmackDown! It will be the two-time MITB winner, Carmella! The Untouchable and Fabulous Mella makes her way to the ring and gets a mic to tell Sonya, “Thanks for making the obvious choice. But if I could just give you one little note? In addition to being a two-time MITB winner, I am also the Most Beautiful Woman in All the WWE!” So here’s another chance to do the intro the right way. Wait, here comes Liv Morgan! “Wait, wait, wait! Hold on just a second and let me get this straight.” Declaring yourself the Most Beautiful Woman in All the WWE just makes Mella an opportunity? Wow~!
Liv gets in the ring and says she BEAT the conceited little princess last week. Liv knows she belongs in this year’s MITB way more than Mella. Mella laughs at that idea, and says, “Aw, sweetie. This match is for the real stars. So cute.” Just look at Mella! And then look at Liv. Liv SLAPS Mella right off her feet! Sonya keeps this from getting worse and tells them both to relax. Liv did just make a statement. Mella isn’t out, but if Liv feels she deserves it, then she can prove it. They can have a match again, right here, right now! Mella is upset, Liv is fired up, will Mella find she’s not the only one who is money?
Liv Morgan VS Carmella!
SmackDown returns and the match is already underway as Mella talks trash and SLAPS Liv outside the ring! Mella drags Liv to the desk, tells commentary to tell the world how beautiful she is, and then bumps her off the apron. Mella shoves Liv in, wraps her hair around the bottom ropes and pulls hair as she wants to be called beautiful. The ref counts, Mella lets off and then whips Liv to a corner. Liv dodges Mella to WING SNAPPER and BOOT her into buckles! Liv then goes up the corner but Mella avoids the stomps to mule kick and FABULOUS KICK Liv into the corner! Mella fixes her hair then taunts Liv.
Mella stands Liv up for back elbow after back elbow, then lets off at the ref’s count, just to fire off more! The ref counts, Mella lets off again, and we see the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions, Natalya & Tamina, watching this very closely. Mella goes corner to corner and runs back in for a BRONCO BUSTER! Cover, TWO! Mella keeps her cool as she looms over Liv. “Who do you think you are, Liv? I’m Carmella!” Mella brags about her accolades then she SLAPS Liv! And pie faces her! “I’m the star, not you!” Liv runs and gets Mella for ObLIVion! Cover, ROPEBREAK!! Liv is shocked and furious as Mella survives by mere inches!
Liv drags Mella over, but Mella victory roll counters! TWO, and Mella ROCKS Liv with a right! Liv steadies herself in a corner and elbows Mella way. Liv hops up, Mella ROCKS her again! Mella FABULOUS KICKS Liv and Liv wobbles up top! Mella runs in to SUPER MELLA STEINER, but Liv rolls that to a sunset flip! LIV WINS!!
Winner: Liv Morgan, by pinfall
Another big win over the Most Beautiful Woman in the WWE, but was it good enough to get into the MITB match? Only Sonya can decide that.
Jimmy Uso fires up backstage.
Kayla walks over to interview him, saying, “The pressure’s on.” The pressure IS on, but the Usos don’t fall to it. Whatever you put in front of them, they don’t go under, over or around, they go through it. Tonight, Jimmy dedicates this win to the family and Jey. Roman better be watching this! Jimmy heads to the ring, but does he have this on lockdown?
Jimmy Uso VS Dolph Ziggler w/ Robert Roode!
It seems the one who drew this card was the Show-Off! Will Ziggler avoid being put in the Uso Penitentiary?
SmackDown returns and Ziggler makes his entrance, along with his fellow Dirty Dawg. The bell rings and Ziggler circles with Jimmy. They tie up, Jimmy headlocks but Ziggler powers out, only for Jimmy to run him over! Cover, TWO! Jimmy rains down furious fists on Ziggler, but Ziggler gets away to the apron. Jimmy grabs at him but the ref backs Jimmy off. Ziggler gets up, gets around to waistlock, but Jimmy reaches back and headlocks. Ziggler powers out again, but again Jimmy runs him over! Jimmy kicks, Ziggler blocks and spins Jimmy but gets the DRAGON WHIP! Cover, TWO! Jimmy goes after Ziggler again but Ziggler is in the ropes.
Ziggler gets up and hits Jimmy down low! Ziggler throws haymakers, has Jimmy on the ropes and scrapes his face on them! The ref counts, Ziggler lets off but dropkicks Jimmy down! Cover, TWO! Ziggler clamps on with a sleeper and body scissors! Jimmy reaches out, moves around, but Ziggler drags Jimmy away. Jimmy fights up, throws body shots and gets free, but Ziggler throws him down by his hair! Ziggler drops an elbow! Cover, TWO! Ziggler keeps on Jimmy with a sleeper hold and chicken wing, but Jimmy endures. Jimmy fights up, reaches back for hair, but Ziggler puts Jimmy in a corner. Ziggler runs in but Jimmy elbows him away! Ziggler tries again but gets a BOOT!
Jimmy dumps Ziggler up and out and Ziggler lands hard! Roode checks on Ziggler, Jimmy builds speed, Jimmy DIVES! Roode takes the hit and is sent over the desk! Ziggler ZIGZAGS Jimmy into the steel steps!! Jimmy writhes but that was double-edged for Ziggler, too! Everyone is down as SmackDown goes to break!
SmackDown returns again and Ziggler has Jimmy in a sleeper! Jimmy flails, throws body shots, and fireman’s carries! Ziggler rakes eyes to escape then kicks low. Ziggler turns Jimmy but Jimmy powers out and CLOBBERS Ziggler! Ziggler gets up into the fireman’s carry and SAMOAN DROP! Cover, TWO! Jimmy grits his teeth, aims at Ziggler from the corner, and then SUPER- NO! Ziggler dodges, bounces Jimmy off buckles then ZIGZAGS! Cover, TWO!?! Jimmy survives and Ziggler is beside himself! Ziggler crawls over to Jimmy, brings him up with a facelock, and throws haymakers! Jimmy headbutts back! Ziggler haymakers, Jimmy headbutts again!
Ziggler throws more hands, Jimmy ROCKS him with an uppercut! Ziggler throws another haymaker, and again and again! Ziggler has Jimmy in a corner but Jimmy headbutts and CHOPS! And CHOPS! Jimmy blocks Ziggler’s superkick but Ziggler kicks a leg out! Ziggler runs, but Jimmy turns Famouser into powerbomb, but Ziggler turns that to a sunset flip! TWO, and Jimmy SUPERKICKS! Cover, Jimmy wins!!
Winner: Jimmy Uso, by pinfall
One good shot and it’s done! Did Jimmy just prove he’s the NEW Right Hand Man? That’s up to Roman.
Speaking of which, Roman is watching the replay at gorilla. Jimmy comes in with a big smile and asks what he thinks. Roman smiles back, but doesn’t say anything. Roman makes his entrance and Jimmy wants to follow him back out there, but Heyman tells him it’s fine. Heyman can handle this. Jimmy seems a bit confused and upset by this, was he not good enough for Roman’s high standards? That said, Heyman hustles up to give Roman the belt and Roman holds the belt up for the pyro. Roman gives Heyman the belt back so that Heyman may hold it up as a banner while they go to the ring. And of course, there is the second round of pyro. Roman’s celebration of himself and his State of the WWE Address happens, after the break.
SmackDown returns once more and Heyman has a mic to say that he has many flaws, “but being inarticulate is not one of them.” But we are here to acknowledge the Tribal Chief, and Heyman says this footage speaks almost as eloquently as he does. That is to say, a replay package plays that shows the devastation Roman inflicted upon the Mysterios a couple weeks ago, as well as onto Rey Mysterio specifically inside Hell in a Cell last Friday. Guillotine submissions and seismic powerbombs were the downfalls of both father and son, and the Head of the Table is still Roman Reigns.
The video finishes, and Heyman continues to say, “The Head of the Table does not suck. Here’s something that sucks, and here’s the solution to the problem: The Fiend got frightened; Strowman got slaughtered; Kevin got KO’d; Edge and Daniel Bryan got pinned, stacked, emasculated, neutered, embarrassed, humiliated at WrestleMania. Daniel Bryan was man enough to come back and he got shipped the hell right back out.” Roman smirks as Heyman continues. Cesaro got clobbered, then the Mysterios got launched quite literally and metaphorically straight to Hell. Their Cell is watching from their hospital beds. In less than one year, Roman has wiped out an entire division.
Therefore, the Tribal Chief changes course by doing something never before done on network television. Roman will enlighten you because there is no other choice. There’s no one left! Roman thinks, and then holds his hand out. Heyman hands over the mic, and Roman says- “You think you know me.” EDGE?!?! EDGE IS BACK?!?! The Rated R Superstar, very grizzled and very pissed, baits Roman into the ropes and HOTSHOTS him! Edge knocks Roman out of the ring, then LEAPS from the apron for a clothesline! Edge dribbles Roman’s head off the desk! And then CLUBS away on his back! Edge puts Roman back in the ring, but Roman SUPERMAN PUNCHES him down!
Roman falls over, needing to steady himself after all of that. Roman goes out, gets a chair, and brings it to the ring! But Edge SPEARS Roman down!! Edge hits the Spear first, and then sees the chair! Edge puts Roman’s head on the chair, digs him into the steel, and then hurries to get a second chair! Edge gets back in the ring as Heyman begs for mercy, but JIMMY knocks Edge off the apron! Jimmy rains down rights, drags Edge back up and whips him, only for Edge to reverse! Jimmy again meets steel steps with his back first! Edge SPEARS Jimmy through barriers!! Edge leaves the new Right Hand Man behind but Roman and Heyman have run away to the ramp!
The Rated R Superstar is back in the ring, glaring right at the camera as he shouts, “WHERE YOU AT, ROMAN?! WHERE YOU AT?! You want me? I’m right here!!” Edge has sent a message to Roman and shows there IS someone left! Will Roman have no choice but to acknowledge Edge?
My Thoughts:
Another great SmackDown here, but I feel like there were still some details that just didn’t click. Sonya Deville just naming SmackDown participants in the Women’s MITB shows SmackDown’s Women’s Division has been the one to get gutted by these releases WWE continues to make. And Liv didn’t even actually earn her spot, she just got a good win, and we have to wait a week to see if Sonya thinks she’s worthy over…? Who else is there? Natty & Tamina were backstage watching, but can anyone tell me who is left on SmackDown other than the four we saw tonight? Is Mia Yim going to finally make a SmackDown debut after leaving Retribution and Raw? Is a call-up going to happen when we are told a Draft is coming in August anyway?
Bayley not being considered for MITB was a bit of a surprise to me, but that Mixed Tag Match to open was clearly to set Bayley up for another match with Bianca. The opening promos and match itself were great, but again, look how gutted the women’s division is on RawDown if we’re getting another rematch! Rollins wanting to go after the Universal Championship after finally getting a couple wins on Cesaro is good character stuff for him, but what a great closing segment with Edge returning. The only issue here was Edge must not have realized in reality that Roman and Heyman were just on the ramp, since Edge looked to camera and shouted, “WHERE YOU AT?!”
But before naming a challenger for MITB, I think this first leads to Edge VS Rollins dream match, winner is the contender. That way, we all win by getting a certified classic between Rated R Superstar and Architect, and then this opportunity isn’t just handed to someone, they earned it. And in the end, it’ll be Roman VS Edge for Spear VS Spear and a great match for the live fans to see. Another great element to tonight was that Jimmy is having to earn Roman’s trust. Jey being away this long also makes me think that he’ll counteract whatever Jimmy will do to try to help Roman at MITB. The Usos feuding with each other might be how they’re going to do this and that’d be rather shocking in itself.
The coronation of Shinsuke Nakamura this week seemed like concentrated filler extract. I get it, we need to see sad Baron Corbin and have that make us think, “Oh, what’s next for him now that he’s not king?” But there are several ways of doing that without the coronation. Overall, it was an unneeded epilogue, and maybe Corbin can get in on the Men’s MITB matches. Sami Zayn’s promos tonight were great, showing that karma is getting him back, even if he doesn’t see it that way. A Last Man Standing match between him and Kevin Owens is going to be insane, and could go either way given Kevin won at WrestleMania 37 while Sami won at HIAC.
Apollo VS Big E tonight was a great one, with great story built upon all their previous matches, and naturally Big E wins. Big E can get past Apollo and the Intercontinental Championship and be a strong choice for Mr. MITB this year. Big E’s been promising to get to Roman and the title by WrestleMania 38 in Dallas, this might be his guaranteed spot. And even if it isn’t, it is great story telling for Big E to come close and then have to try again. Corbin, Cesaro, Otis, maybe even Jimmy Uso could be in consideration. Take those four guys, have 1v1 matches, the winners join Big E and the winner of Kevin VS Sami, you have SmackDown’s four.
My Score: 8.3/10

Khan: 0; Yuya: 1
Just like with Tanga Loa, Khan drops the ball in the first round! But then, will history repeat itself here as we prepare for the second round?
The tarps are set down, the table is set, and it’s time to eat up some Hiroshima lemons! Khan makes sure the people watching at home and around the world understand that Hiroshima lemons are the best, which probably means they’re the most sour. Khan puts on his bandana and takes his seat at the table. He and Yuya get some wet wipes to clean their hands, and it all comes down to who finishes their one lemon first. Ready, set, EAT! Yuya starts fast and that face shows how sour these are. Khan says hold on, and he just takes a HUGE bite! Yuya is suffering but Khan is reveling in the sourness! Khan’s already halfway through!
Yuya can barely keep the lemon in, but Khan’s eaten it all up! Can he get it all down before Yuya? Khan is chewing and chewing, Yuya is practically shaking from how sour it all is! Khan keeps going and… Yes, Khan has it all down! Khan wins!
Khan: 1; Yuya: 1
Khan now lets his body feel the stinging sweetness, and he says it was delicious! But then, that leaves us with this third and final round. And this time it’s a TABLES match! Who will be feeling sour and sore after this one?

As for LIJ, they regroup in the ring and have their hands raised. Slyly’s even still hanging around! But uh, he’s a little too chunky to get in the ring, so he just settles for pumping up the crowd like he does at baseball games. Naito gets the mic to say that it was three months ago, the Splash Strong series back in January, since Naito was last in Hiroshima. Naito would like to thank the fans from coming here tonight, “Gracias, amigos.” The fans cheer, and Naito continues by saying, “Hiroshima is my second home. I really long to have a match at Mazda Stadium.” The fans love the sound of that!
Naito does preface that him saying that doesn’t mean there’s anything planned. So please, tranquilo, be patient, and look forward to the day that finally happens. So, shall they do it? The fans cheer again! So then, for the first time in Hiroshima Sun Plaza Hall in a year and eight months, is everyone ready? The fans cheer because they sure are! Well then, the only way to close The Road to Wrestling Dontaku here in Hiroshima… Bushi! Hiromu! Takagi! Titan! Yota! Slyly! Y Naito! NOSOTROS! LOS! INGOBERRRRNABLEEEES~! DE! JA! PON!! Slyly gets in on the roll call! Will all of LIJ have success as we reach Wrestling Dontaku next week?
My Thoughts:
A great event to conclude Road to Dontaku before getting to Wrestling Dontaku itself. An unfortunate change in the card, Sanada fell ill and could not compete, so his match alongside Taichi against Tanahashi & Tomoaki was changed into Tanahashi and a Young Lion VS Tomoaki and a Young Lion. Hopefully Cold Skull gets well soon. Great tag title match from TMDK VS GoD, and while I figured TMDK was going to retain, I didn’t think it’d be in a shady way like holding tights. While ZSJ VS Cobb for the NJPW World TV title is still to come, I doner of GoD shift gears and ELP becomes a singles guy so Leo and Loa can team up. Then ELP can challenge ZSJ in a battle of initials while the Brothers Guerrilla get to take on Shane & Mikey.
Great Rural Revitalization again, they managed to pull off great comeback spots each round. I was very surprised Yuya won out, I felt like Khan could’ve done one more Rural Revitalization before losing. But at the same time, Yuya feels like the unofficial fourth Reiwa Musketeer behind Narita, Shota & Tsuji. Yuya getting a title, any title, ahead of the others is good stuff for him, and could even bring about a feud with one of the Musketeers for the Summer. And then a great 10 Man Elimination Tag. I again really like that NJPW allows over the rope eliminations even in a tag match like this to really mix things up. Jake Lee not winning out for the War Dogs is really surprising, but I feel like that means Jake will defeat Naito 1v1.
My Score: 8.9/10

Parking Lot Brawl: Trent Beretta VS Chuck Taylor!
Years of friendship, thrown away, and why? Because #JustTrent had a problem with Freshly Squeezed having more success in AEW than them? Because #JustTrent had a problem with Cassidy as a person? Because #JustTrent turned out to be the selfish one in the relationship? Well, then will #JustTrent get his ass kicked? Or will he take advantage of how Chuckie T. is a Kentucky Gentleman?
Trent stares Chuck down while we hear the crowd of other wrestlers taunting him. Trent takes a swing, but Chuck dodges to fire off hands! The brawl is on, and Chuck gets the edge! Chuck ROCKS Trent, then SMACKS him off a car hood! And then off the car door! Chuck drags Trent up, but Trent RAMS Chuck into the car! And throat chops him just because! Trent gets space, runs back in, but Chuck dodges so Trent hits the passenger door! Chuck gets a trash can lid and he stands Trent up. Trent jumps through the open window but Chuck drags him back out. Trent kicks low, and he gives Chuck a CAR HOOD BACK SUPLEX!
Trent grabs the trash can lid, SMACKS Chuck right in the head and Chuck falls down! The crowd boos but Trent opens a car trunk to bring out a trash can, a dustpan and a baseball bat! Chuck storms up but Trent CHUCKS the trash can into Chuck’s face! Chuck flounders and Trent smirks. Trent SMACKS Chuck with the trash can, CLUBS him around, and Chuck is busted open! The white car has red polka dots on it now, and Trent talks trash, “This is what you wanted?!” Trent runs up, but Chuck POP UP POWERBOMBS Trent onto a car hood! Trent writhes, Chuck staggers around, and Chuck brings Trent around.
Chuck headlocks Trent before he SMACKS him off another car door. Trent goes around the back and then up onto a truck! Chuck follows, and he CLUBS Trent in the chest! But Trent slips under, and he CLAWS Chuck’s bloody face! Trent DECKS Chuck and Chuck falls through drywall sheets! Trent looms over Chuck as he crawls out of the wreckage. Trent stalks Chuck, brings him around and SMACKS him with the trash can lid! Trent hoists Chuck onto a car roof, SMACKS him again, then goes back to the truck. Trent climbs onto the roof of the truck, to FLYING ELBOW from car to car! Cover, TWO!!
Trent is furious, but Chuck is still in this as Rampage goes picture in picture.
Trent fumes, paces around, and goes back to the goodies. He brings out… Is that a screwdriver?! And he JABS Chuck in the head with it!! And then he DIGS it into Chuck’s forehead!! As if he wasn’t already bleeding badly!! Trent leaves Chuck behind, to fetch what looks to be a flat screen TV. Then he brings out a wood door!? Did someone visit Home Depot before coming here? Chuck CHOPS Trent in return then fires haymakers! Trent CLAWS Chuck’s face! Trent grabs that TV and CHUCKS it, only for Chuck to duck it! Rampage returns as TV screen hits windshield! Chuck kicks low to snap suplex Trent through the door!!
The crowd is losing its minds as Trent crawls. Chuck gets Trent’s legs, to CATAPULT him into the truck’s tailgate!! The crowd fires up while Chuck gets a sinister look on his face. Chuck takes a piece of that drywall to SMASH it on Trent! Chuck gets that trash can, he SMACKS Trent with it! Chuck sees the pile of extra goodies nearby, and he uncovers some light tubes! But first, he’ll clean up the mess, he SMACKS Trent with the dust pan! And SMACKS him again and again! And then one more shot with the trash can! Trent writhes, but Chuck drags Trent up. Chuck SMACKS Trent off the tailgate, then clears some space.
Chuck climbs up, but Trent ROCKET LAUNCHES him onto the light tubes!!! The tubes shatter under Chuck’s back! Trent sputters, he’s bloody now, too. Trent puts Chuck against the car hood and stands on him! Trent soaks up the heat, but Chuck TRIPS Trent! Trent writhes, Chuck reels Trent in, Canadian Rack, RAZOR’S EDGE onto a windshield!! Trent writhes while fans chant “HOLY CHUCK!” Chuck covers Trent on the hood, TWO!! Trent survives and hurries around the back of this sedan. Chuck snarls, goes up after Trent, and they meet on the roof. They’re both so bloody as they fire forearms back and forth!
The crowd cheers Chuck and boos Trent, and as the two swing wild, they end up HUGGING! You GOT to give the people what they want, right? They stand, Chuck ROCKS Trent and reels Trent in, but Trent LOW BLOWS!! Trent has Chuck now, PILEDRIVER ON THE CAR ROOF!!! And then, SNAKE BITE!! Trent is choking Chuck out!!! Chuck IS out, Trent wins!!
Winner: Trent Beretta, by submission
The Best Friends tore each other apart, but it is #JustTrent that stands tall in the end. He’s clearly lost the respect of his peers given how the other wrestlers are chanting “You Suck! You Suck!” But wait, Trent isn’t done? He has a monkey wrench!? Cassidy & Kris step forward to say no, this is going too far! Trent says this is all Cassidy’s fault! And SMASH, Trent hits Chuck’s leg with the wrench, and even shatters the glass behind it!! Chuck clutches the already recovering leg, and now Cassidy wants after Trent! Kris stops Cassidy, Trent’s still got the wrench! Trent escapes into the shadows of the arena, what darkness is living in Trent’s heart?
Don Callis is watching this.
And he seems to like the sadistic savagery he just witnessed. Trent may not have Best Friends anymore, but could he end up with a whole new family?
Backstage interview with Kyle O’Reilly.
Arkady Aura is with #CombatKyle and brings up his impressive showing in Dynamite’s Casino Gauntlet this past Wednesday. But we all want to know, what is next for her? Well, on Saturday, May 11th, AEW is coming to his hometown! Collision in Vancouver, British Columbia! The Rogers Arena, the same building an 11-year-old Kyle saw his first wrestling show ever.

Kyle is going to take on the best wrestlers this world has to offer, right here in AEW, where the best wrestle. Kyle is ready for a fight, who will take him up on that in two weeks?

Backstage interview with The Undisputed Kingdom.
Arkady Aura is with Roderick Strong, Matt Taven & Mike Bennett as she notes Will Ospreay is the NEW #1 Contender to the AEW International Championship. Taven says hold on, before we get started here, “Not Lexy,” as three guys who care deeply about neck health, and as two guys who nursed someone from the brink of paralysis (aka Roddy), The Kingdom wishes a very speedy recovery to “the world’s greatest boss. TK, stay strong, buddy.” Roddy then shouts that “WILL… Ospreay. Congratulations, you did it! You have signed, sealed and delivered the downfall, demise and destruction of The Aerial Assassin at Double or Nothing.”
Roddy says the world can sing Ospreay’s praises, but none of that matters when you step in the ring with Roddy. Just like all the ones before, Roddy will dismantle Ospreay, he will BREAK Ospreay, and he will make Ospreay fall in front of The Savior of the Backbreaker. Roddy’s confidence is strong, but will Roddy be the one feeling the End of Heartache after taking on the #BillyGOAT?

My Thoughts:
A great Rampage here, though I was oddly more excited when I thought it was just Deonna VS Rosa and the Parking Lot Brawl. But even so, at least Bill squashing a dude was used in story. He was showing off, he’ll surely have Jericho’s blessing if he helps defeat Shibata on Dynamite, but a part of me almost wants this to be all a trap. Bill was teammates with Ricky Starks in a feud against Jericho, and if Jericho is being obliviously arrogant then maybe Bill is using that against Jericho, too. But either way, let’s just hope this story helps Bill get going rather than slow him down like the #JerichoVortex has always done.
The Parking Lot Brawl was moving maybe a bit fast for me, especially with how there were some obvious spots already set up when they arrived, such as the drywall draped across the truck bed. But they surely got bloody, and in the end, Trent won out because he was willing to sink to the lowest low. And then they’ve written Chuck off again with that monkey wrench to the shin, so Cassidy VS Trent is definitely a Double or Nothing match. And something is just telling me that if Kris is gonna turn out to be the villain in the Willow Nightingale story, she’s probably gonna screw Cassidy over to help Trent, too.
Really good match from Deonna VS Rosa, and with Rosa getting a quick pin then that brawl, we’re clearly getting more out of them. Good promo from Kyle O’Reilly to hype AEW’s newest Canada tour, and good promo from The Kingdom to tie in their old Neck Health Awareness gag to the Tony Khan piledriver angle. Roddy calling out Ospreay, I would definitely think Ospreay wins the title at Double or Nothing. And really good tag main event from Shibata & Garcia VS Shane Taylor Promotions. STP keeps getting great showings even in losing, but Lee took the loss here to keep Shane himself strong. Great win for Shibata but this just adds to the go-home math where Jericho retains the FTW Championship on Dynamite.
My Score: 8.7/10
