QUICK NOTES
Honestly, a lot of the first special got a lot of good ones, I’m not sure what’s left.
AFTER WATCHING
It’s always kind of a trip to look back even just a couple years in pro-wrestling. I forgot there was a time when Cody interacted with the rest of The Elite. Honestly, that 8 Man was a lot of fun, I wonder if we’ll ever get interactions between the Elite and Nightmare Family again. And I forgot one of Penelope’s earliest matches in AEW was such a great one with her, Britt, Riho & Yuka. I should’ve also remembered about the Cruise of Jericho having Dark matches. Also I forgot Caster had such a bad mustache when he first showed up. And I forgot how rough that Falls Count Anywhere got, like the table spot where Kip and Penelope don’t break the table but just bounce off it.

Thunder Rosa VS Harley Cameron!
La Mera Mera told us during Collision that she’ll be watching Mariah VS Mina very closely. But will she make sure to focus on the crazy Aussie that won’t leave her alone? Or will she feel the wrath of… Harley-gram?
The bell rings and Rosa is confused as to how Harley thinks she’s fooling anyone. The fans rally for “LUCHA! LUCHA!” as Rosa rolls and trips Harley in one move! Rosa has the leg, the fans keep up the chant of “LUCHA! LUCHA!” and Rosa floats all over Harley. Then she pushes Harley to a cover, TWO! Rosa wrenches to wristlock, but Harley wrenches back. Harley hammerlocks, headlocks, but Rosa powers up and out. Harley runs Rosa over, keeps moving, then she rolls over the dropdown. Rosa bypasses Harley but Harley springboards to FLYING ARM-DRAG! Rosa goes to a corner, Harley runs up, but Rosa puts her on the apron.
Harley block a shot but not the ROUNDHOUSE! Rosa staggers back, Harley goes up, in, and FLYING ARM-DRAGS again! The fans cheer as Rosa runs up but Harley puts her against ropes. Harley whips, Rosa reverses, but Harley slips around to roll Rosa up. TWO, but Harley is right on Rosa. Harley knees low, then she THROWS Rosa down by her hair! Then Harley-gram takes off her mask to reveal, “IT WAS ME!” It was Harley Cameron all along! Well, duh. Harley grins, but Rosa CHOPS her down! And CHOPS her again! And CHOPS her again! Rosa brings Harley up to whip, then she DROPKICKS Harley down!
The fans cheer and Rosa says SHE is a luchadora! Rosa storms up, blocks Harley’s boot, then puts Harley’s leg in the ropes. Then she puts the other leg in the ropes!

Rosa isn’t done there, she tucks Harley in! Harley fights but Rosa still lifts her, PACKAGE PILEDRIVER! Cover, Rosa wins!
Winner: Thunder Rosa, by pinfall
Harley tried to trick us all, but Rosa took her down again! Rosa holds up a fan’s sign that says, “Women’s Wrestling is Alive and Well,” and that is most certainly true! Will Rosa then be leading the charge as she chases down whoever has the AEW Women’s World title?
Backstage interview with Mercedes Mone.
Renee Paquette is with The CEO, and Mone tells, “Rampaaage~! Say hello to your C E O.” Renee brings up Dynamite and Kamille but Mone stops her there. Mone does not ever wanna hear that name out of Renee’s mouth ever again. Mone is NOT here to talk about Kamille. She is here to celebrate a special edition Lucha Libre Rampage! Everyone knows how much Mone loves lucha libre. Eddie Guerrero is still Mone’s favorite, she grew up watching him, so she is just feeling some type of way. She is so thankful during this time of year, and she is most thankful for… herself! Mone is thankful for her and her money.
And before asking another question, Renee, we all know Christmas is around the corner. And what Mone wants is even more championship gold! And we all know money changes everything. It seems the TBS Championship AND NJPW Strong Women’s Championships are not enough, but will the world (title) never be enough for The CEO?
Six Man Tag: Top Flight VS Katsuyori Shibata, Atlantis Jr. & Mascara Dorada 2.0!
Action Andretti & The Martin Brothers are always ready to fly, especially on a night promising lucha libre from start to finish. But will taking on The Wrestler, the second generation luchador and the current World Historic Welterweight Champion be one fight Top Flight won’t win?

Backstage interview with Nick & Mother Wayne.
Renee Paquette is now with the Patriarchy’s Prodigy and Matriarch, and brings up that per the request of Christian Cage, it will be Nick Wayne VS Hook in the Hammerstein Ballroom! Does Nick feel prepared for this match? Nick smirks, and says he signed a contract to AEW when he was just 16 years old, before he even graduated high school. And Renee wants to question if Nick is ready for Hook? Sure, Hook is dangerous, but how dangerous is he when he has to sneak attack Nick when he’s not paying attention? And it’s reasons like that that Nick begged his “father,” Christian Cage, to get this match made in Hook’s hometown, in a venue that Hook’s dad made famous!
Nick also did it to prove to not just Christian but the entire world what the REAL future of pro-wrestling looks like. So Hook, see you at home. Or will he? Nick questions the courage of the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil, but will The Patriarchy regret giving Hook three weeks to prepare?

The Dynamite Dozen speak.
Kyle O’Reilly says it’s Max with another master plan. But after next week, Kyle will be one step closer to taking that diamond ring, and shutting MJF up. Don Callis’ Murder Machines say that they’ll win, even fight each other, and then they’re hunting down MJF’s ass! So much for that business deal… Mark Davis says he’ll take that diamond ring, cash it in, and have himself a good little weekend. Alex Abrahantes says Komander’s speed, skill, and ability to walk the ropes will see him through to facing MJF.

Winner: Hechicero, by pinfall
An instant classic from two lucha icons, but it was the Alchemist who wins out! Will Komander be able to recover so that he can make an impact in the Dynamite Dozen Battle Royal?
My Thoughts:
A great Rampage, especially with the theme of lucha libre and the crossover with CMLL stars. Though that said, of course the CMLL stars were winning. Great stuff in the Six Man Tag, and an awesome main event from Hechicero VS Komander. Mortos VS Serpentico was surprisingly good, though I guess that’s because Serpentico got to show his stuff. Thanks to the prerecorded nature of Collision and Rampage, Mortos gets to lose a match in Chicago, Illinois but win one in Reading, Pennsylvania. And of course Rosa beat Harley again, but I really appreciate commentary playing along like Harley-gram wasn’t at all obviously Harley Cameron. Rosa’s win here definitely keeps her primed for a shot at the world championship after Winter is Coming.
Good promo from just six of the Dynamite Diamond Dozen, and as I said for Collision, I’m thinking this comes down to Kyle and Cole. They’ll fight, and as much as I want Cole to win, it’s probably Kyle, and then we get Kyle VS MJF for the diamond ring, Cole VS MJF at Worlds End. A surprise move tonight was someone taking out Kamille backstage. With this and Anna Jay’s promo on Collision, it definitely has to be The Vendetta doing Mone’s dirty work while expecting payment for their “protection.” Anna and Kamille will fight Deonna and Taya, and then maybe someone out of that field faces Mone for the TBS Championship at Worlds End.
My Score: 8.7/10
