PLAY BY PLAY
CM Punk heads to the ring!
Chicago goes nuts as AEW opens with their hometown hero! But then MJF shows up to kill the mood. MJF of course has a mic as he goes to the ring. Fans call him an A-Hole as he gets in the ring with Punk and just smirks at him. Fans then chant for Punk, but MJF says, “Doesn’t feel so good getting interrupted, does it, Punky Brewster? Quiet frankly-” Fans now switch to chanting STFU. But frankly, Punk hurt MJF’s feelings. It was almost as bad as that time Punk quit, took his ball and went home like a little bitch. What was great, though, was #ThePipebomb. So good, legendary even. What we’d all call a great promo. The Pipebomb was probably Punk’s best moment.
But here’s the problem, bud. Every MJF moment is the best MJF moment. Cuz unlike Punk, MJF isn’t a one trick pony. Don’t get it twisted, MJF respects Punk and what he’s done, and even that he’s straightedge, Not that MJF could ever imagine a straightedge guy could look so much like a meth addict. And it must be so hard, considering if he had his face, MJF would have to down eight shots of whiskey just to look at himself. But MJF really respects how Punk handled the situation between them. Punk can pretend there wasn’t one, but there is. Punk could be asked about dream matches, would name every other wrestler except for MJF.
Punk can pretend he isn’t interested, but in reality, it’s cuz he doesn’t want none. Punk’s whole career on the stick has been big fish in a small pond, but next to MJF, Punk’s just a minnow. Punk doesn’t want to go toe to toe on the stick? Well too bad. MJF’s gonna finish Punk faster than Punk’s UFC career. MJF smiles his smug smile again while fans boo. MJF wants Punk want to check his watch. Because if Punk wants to retort, it won’t say clobbering time. It’ll say outta time. Punk can drop pipebombs all he wants, because MJF drops nukes! Punk finally does get the mic, fans fire up and MJF patiently waits.
“I’m so disappointed in you. But let’s not start there. Let’s show our guest a little bit of Chicago hospitality.” Punk likes that MJF introduced himself as a proper young man to his elder. And Punk had no idea his first name was Maxwell. He thought MJF was for “My Jealous Fan.” Punk has the time. If MJF is hung up on Punk never mentioning him during press, that was by design. The last thing Punk wanted was to feed MJF’s rotten little ego. Punk is in MJF’s head. He might even be a poster on MJF’s wall. Doesn’t change Punk’s disappointment. He’s heard about the great MJF, and then he did what no one else has been able to do: he shut up the great MJF without saying a word.
And MJF has had seven days to think of good zingers, and he came out with the lowest hanging fruit. MJF thinks he’s revolutionary when in reality, he’s just a less famous MIZ! OUCH! Okay, settle down, settle down. MJF tells “Punky” that was solid. Creative stuff. Almost what MJF wanted. In fact, “almost what I wanted,” perfectly encapsulates Punk’s AEW run so far. Maybe it’s true. “Nostalgia is a drug that cause us to misconstrue our memories, and you, my friend, are no more than nostalgia.” And guess what? Punk is right! MJF was a fan! How couldn’t he have been? In this ring, on the mic, no one could touch Punk! Punk was the best! Or so MJF thought.
Ever since Punk’s almighty return, he’s struggled to beat the easiest competition or say anything of intrigue. MJF gets a little closer and says Punk’s breath smells like sh*t. Maybe cuz he’s been kissing so much ass! He’s been kissing ass all over! MJF will do a quick impression. “It sure is great to be back here in [insert name of town]. I love being a part of [insert name of company]. Gee whiz, I sure am looking forward to my match with [insert name of opponent]. Robotic Pucker Up Punk. You’ve gone soft, man. Your hair’s going gray, and looking at your eyes, if anybody needs to GO to Sleep, it’s you, bud.”
MJF just realized! This isn’t CM Punk. This is PG Punk! What happened to the guy MJF grew up on? The renegade! The ass-kicker! The outsider! This is more like a guy preaching Hustle, Loyalty and Respect. Whoa…! Except here’s the problem, PG. We can see you! MJF can see through him! Punk claimed he came back for the younger talent, but he also claimed he’d only come back for “a boat load of money.” Punk claimed he couldn’t fix pro-wrestling from his couch, yet he stayed put on it for seven long years. Excuse after excuse not to come back. Por que? Why? Cuz he was making comic books no one read or movies no one saw?
Or is it because Punk was terrified? Punk was scared he couldn’t hang anymore, or that he couldn’t in the first place. MJF shouts down the booing fans and says he’s here to tell Punk that he should be scared. In the other company, you were a cult hero because you were held down, should’ve been showcased as the number one. Yeah, and now here he is, has all the opportunity to prove those people right, but can he? Do the fans think Punk can do it? Chicago sure does. MJF is glad they think that now, but what about in a month? Two months? A year? Punk envies MJF. And Punk doesn’t like MJF because he represents everything in the business Punk hates.
MJF was born for this. He’s a clean cut professional, a promotor’s wet dream, but Punk was a tattooed misfit from the dumpiest part of the Midwest known as CHICAGO. Punk had to work his tail off, and MJF commends him for that. But MJF knows what eats Punk up inside. It’s the fact that after all the hard world, the blood, sweat, tears and sacrifice, deep down Punk and the fans know that Punk’s been nothing more than second best. Whether it was You Can’t See Me, or the King of Kings, Punk was never up to snuff. And now that Punk is in MJF’s ring and MJF’s company, it won’t be any different! Punk may say he’s Best in the World, but MJF is better than you, and you know it!
MJF and Punk stare down, and Punk says there’s some truth to that. A little. Scared? Coming back after seven years, yeah. Punk won’t lie. He didn’t know if the fans would remember or care about him. He didn’t know if he still had it. But trust Punk, he’s not scared anymore. And certainly not of MJF. The timing might not match up but Punk was selling out Madison Square Garden while MJF was marking out for Rosie O’Donnell. And the last time MJF did a song and dance, he made the New York Times! WOW~! Wanna sing him a song now, Maxwell? Don’t worry, MJF is in the ring with a professional and he’ll make the papers again. But this time it’ll be the obituaries!
Punk says MJF just enrolled himself into a school his parents can’t pay for. MJF talked too much, just like Punk back in the day! But Punk backed it up. MJF can’t back up shit without his backup! FTR, Shawn Spears, Wardlow, that is how MJF gets things done. Punk saw AEW, said that’s where he wants to be and test himself, and he went for the heart and soul of it, and that was Darby Allin! Now that chews MJF up, doesn’t it? And Punk beat Darby Allin, and didn’t need a pinkie ring to do it! MJF is too busy talking about how he’s the best, but he doesn’t realize he’s been replaced by BRITT BAKER! Fans chant “DMD! DMD!” for the Doctor.
Punk says MJF thinks he’s made great points, he still talks too much and they’ve wasted the people’s time. Chicago is the Second City, not because there’s somewhere better. Punk will be #2 with a bullet, cuz just like Chicago, when it burned down, they just built it back up on top of the smoldering embers! And who’s the man around here? MJF? No. The only way MJF will be number one is for MJF to wait until Tony Khan has a daughter that MJF can marry! Oh…! Punk says last time in Chicago, yeah Punk is happy to be here. He gave them free ice cream bars! But the only thing Punk can think is better is punching MJF in his needle dick right now!
Fans are thunderous as MJF throws off the scarf and jacket! But then he bails out. Punk waves bye, but will MJF man up and give Punk the fight everyone wants to see?
CM Punk VS QT Marshall w/ The Factory!
AEW returns and QT is in the ring. He wants Punk to focus on him, and they tie up. Punk headlocks, QT powers out but Punk runs him over. Punk flexes and fans cheer while QT gets up in a huff. QT paces, circles with Punk, they tie up and Punk headlocks. QT powers out again, Aaron Solo swipes at Punk! Punk glares at Solo but QT CLUBS him from behind. QT brings Punk around, scoops but Punk slips out to scoop and SLAM QT! QT gets up, into another scoop SLAM! And then another! Chicago fires up as Punk drags QT up again for another scoop SLAM! QT goes to a corner, Punk brings him up to snapmare and cover. ONE, but Punk has the chinlock.
QT fights up, puts Punk in the corner but the ref counts the ropebreak. QT lets off but Nick Comoroto grabs at him! But the ref sees that and EJECTS the Factory! Chicago sings, “Hey hey hey! Good bye~!” QT sees his guys up the ramp, but then Punk ducks his clothesline to scoop and SLAM! Is that seven or six? QT knees low, ROCKS Punk with a haymaker then bumps him off buckles.

AEW returns to single picture and fans rally. Punk fights up, throws elbows to get free again, and runs, but into pop-up HAYMAKER! And then QT gets Punk up, SIT-OUT POWERBOMB! Cover, TWO!! QT is furious but fans still rally for Punk. QT rains down fists, soaks up the heat, pretends he can’t hear the fans, then tells them to shove it!

Still undefeated in AEW! When and where will Punk get to show MJF that he’s still that same renegade ass kicker from back in the day?
Backstage interview with Christian Cage & Jurassic Express.
They have a lot of momentum given Full Gear and Rampage. Jungle Boy points out he beat Bobby Fish twice. They do have a lot of momentum and it feels damn good. Funny thing is, when you have the kind of momentum they have, you can’t help but feel damn near invincible! When you feel this way, good things happen. For example, Christian find out his guys here are the #1 contenders in the AEW Tag Division! Now, they’ve been here before, but the difference is the momentum, the confidence, and Christian Cage. He’ll make sure they get those tag titles! Luchasaurus roars, will Jurassic Express finally strike gold?
Eddie Kingston is in catering.
He doesn’t know what the cameraman is doing here, but he’s having his food. But yo, Moxley, he misses you! But then Daniel Garcia & 2point0 walk in. They apologize for things last week. They read the article in The Player’s Tribune. It was fantastic, touching, got to them and the entire world. But as his friend, they see Kingston is happy and full. That is great. But that means he’s not hungry anymore. He’s hungry for cake. But Matt Lee says this is the kiss of death for a fighter. Jeff Parker says they’ve all known each other a long time, so they’re here to help. Kingston couldn’t help his friend so- What did he say? They splash Kingston with his coffee!
But before this turns into a brawl, security and staff step in! Kingston throws the table over, but will he get his pound of flesh from 2point0 and “their son” soon enough?
Gunn Club VS Bear Country!
Billy Gunn and his son, Colten, step up to keep the #Gunndefeated streak alive, but they’re running into Boulder & Bronson! Will Bear Country maul the Gunns-

Now Darby and Sting rush the ring, only for Billy and Colten to bail out. The Gunn Club regroups on their way out, but will they have to face up to the Relentless One soon enough?
AEW presents Battle of the Belts!
January 8th, live on TNT, Dynamite becomes Battle of the Belts! All the champions will have to defend their titles, but will it be a gold rush for their challengers?
Adam Cole & Bobby Fish talk backstage.
Brandon, just keep the damn thing rolling, Cole’s already pissed. These past few weeks have sucked! They lost at Full Gear, then on Rampage, and now there’s this Friendsgiving thing? What the hell is going on? Fish says the Bucks aren’t cleared. Cole knows, because he talks to them every single day. They’re not just teammates, they’re best friends! Almost family! But THE Best Friends walk in. Cole & Fish walked right past them, they know Chuck Taylor, Orange Cassidy & Wheeler Yuta are Best Friends. They don’t walk around doing the weird hand thing. Cole says Best Friends is just a name for them. Where’s even Trent?
And Cassidy is probably a horrible friend and Yuta doesn’t even have friends! So if they think they can look Fish & Cole in the face and say they’re better friends, then you’re kidding yourself. What’s Yuta’s middle name? Cassidy steps up. Fine. Cole & Fish are tired of being disrespected! They leave, but will they prove they’re better friends than Best Friends?
Tony Schiavone presides over a meeting backstage.
After the ultimatum on the offer, Team Taz finally gets Lio Rush & Dante Martin to sit down and look at the contract. Taz says Dante is either in or out. No more games, dude. A golden opportunity for Dante here, but Taz doesn’t even know why Lio is here. Lio asks who Taz is talking to, because he sure isn’t talking to Lio like that. Anything that has to do with Dante involves Lio. Well don’t come at Taz like that, this is simply business. So Dante has the pen, sign. Lio says this is business they want no part of. But then Dante picks up the pen and signs?! Dante is leaving Lio to join Team Taz! He even has some of Hook’s chips! A shocking development, but why did Dante make the change?
TBS Championship Tournament Quarterfinals: Thunder Rosa VS Jamie Hayter w/ Britt Baker & Rebel!
Because of her first round bye, La Mera Mera’s been waiting for this moment. But the AEW Women’s World Champion is very confident in her sidekick moving on to become the other champion in this division. Will Rosa disappoint them both here tonight?

Backstage interview with Chris Jericho.
What is next for Le Champion? Well, before getting to that, he just wants to say that despite all the grief he’s given Alex Marvez, this is Thanksgiving Eve, so- 2point0 and Daniel Garcia barge in, boasting about what they did to Eddie Kingston. Then they see Jericho, and bond as Canadians. Well maybe instead of bragging about throwing coffee in his face like jackasses, get some chains and nails to protect you from when Kingston breaks into their homes and beats their stuffed turkey asses. Jericho also can’t stop staring at Matt Lee’s square head. Look how square he is! He’s like an ugly SpongeBob SquarePants. Right, Chicago? “Square Head! Square Head!”
And Jericho will say this one time. If they ever, ever interrupt him again, he won’t throw coffee in their faces. He’ll knock their teeth down their throats. Ya dig? No trouble. But watch your mouth. 2point0 leave “the funny guy” behind, and Jericho says Happy Thanksgiving.
Britt Baker sits down for Friendsgiving.
She, Tony Schiavone and Rebel sit at the table, and Britt says this didn’t go as planned. But she will say that she is thankful that she could give them the best Thanksgiving dinner ever. Fat free pumpkin pie for Schiavone, and Rebel doesn’t need the carbs. But this all started off horribly because Rosa advanced. Rosa winning that TBS title will doom it for life. But one thing that is still very, very right is Britt is still AEW Women’s World Champion. Schiavone is thankful for his friends, but he has some bad news. Here’s some tape. See, earlier this year, All Out in Chicago, Riho was never actually eliminated in the battle royal.
So Tony Khan has decided, for Rampage Black Friday, it will be a “Black Friday Deal” match. Britt VS Riho, and if Riho wins on Friday, she gets a world title shot. No no no! Britt doesn’t like that. There are only Black Friday deals and matches. If Riho wants a deal, go to the mall. That’s all there is to it. Well it’s been booked, sorry… Well now Schiavone has ruined another holiday. This cuts him out of the Christmas party! And who put ice in the red wine? Was that Schiavone, too? And no, no DMD! Schiavone ruined it all. But will Britt find herself on the bad end of a golden opportunity against the inaugural AEW Women’s World Champion?
Bryan Danielson VS Colt Cabana!
The American Dragon vows that until he gets his match with AEW World Champion, Hangman Page, he’ll take down the members of the Dark Order! And he decided to go after the hometown boy here in Chicago! Will BOOM BOOM have to go bye-bye after Bryan is done with him?
The bell rings, Cabana shows off the dancing pecs, and fans are fired up already. Bryan and Cabana tie up, Bryan wrenches to a wristlock but Cabana rolls, breaks free and drop toeholds to a facelock. Bryan wrenches out, back drops and has the armbar! Cabana gets the ropebreak, Bryan lets off at 4 but gets a cheap shot in as he does. Cabana keeps his cool as he and Bryan reset. They tie up, Bryan headlocks but Cabana wrenches and hammerlocks. Bryan reverses that onto Cabana, then brings him down to have the arms. Cabana fights up, turns the motorcycle stretch on Bryan, then brings him into a modified surfboard!
Bryan slips off to KICK away on Cabana’s leg! Cabana goes to a corner, Bryan CHOPS him! And CHOPS! And CHOPS! Cabana paces, Bryan wrenches to an ELBOW BREAKER! Bryan brings Cabana down to KICK!

Bryan is in a corner, but he dodges the Flying Apple to GERMAN SUPLEX! Bryan runs in to dropkick Cabana! Bryan turns Cabana around to KICK! And CHOP! And KICK! And CHOP! Bryan puts Cabana up top, climbs up behind him, fish hooks the face, but lets off as the ref counts. Bryan stands up on the very top, brings Cabana up, but Cabana punches! Cabana elbows Bryan down, then adjusts to MOONSAULT! Cover, TWO! Fans fire up and Cabana gets Bryan up o fire off BIONIC ELBOWS as he has wrist control! But Bryan gets around, STO to DANIELSON STOMPS! Then omoplata, flex and LEBELLE LOCK! Cabana barely manages to tap, he’s that out of it! Bryan wins!
Winner: Bryan Danielson, by submission
Bryan holds on longer, but then lets off when he’s satisfied. He even points out a bit of tooth that he kicked out of Cabana’s head! Bryan picks it up and holds it up like a trophy! AEW is picture in picture as Bryan soaks up the heat and Cabana realizes what happened to his own tooth. Schiavone is headed to the ring to interview Bryan, and AEW goes to break.
AEW returns and…
Schiavone is in the ring with Bryan, the #1 contender for the AEW World Championship, and undefeated since arriving here. Bryan isn’t making many friends. That’s funny, because when he debuted in Chicago, he got a much different reaction than this. And Bryan wonders, “Is it me? Or is it you?” Bryan has one word to describe that: fickle. Bryan is not fickle. Bryan came out here, said that he was going to kick Cabana’s head in, and not only did he do that, he kicked Cabana’s teeth out! Next week, in Atlanta, there are a couple Dark Orders from there! Bryan invites either one of them to fight him next week so he can kick their heads in!
All of this is leading to the ultimate head kicking, and that is Hangman Adam Page. But speaking of, here comes Hangman! The AEW World Champion goes right to the ring, title on his shoulder and mic in hand. Hangman gets in the ring and stares Bryan down. “I get it, you made your point. You said you’d kick Cabana’s head in, and you did. But that’s the last. Because we’re in Chicago, and this city, this building, well they hold a very special place in my heart.” Hangman can’t think of a better place or time to defend this title than right here and right now. But Bryan says of course Hangman would say that after he’s already had a match!
To Bryan, this isn’t cowboy s*it, it’s COWARD s*it. Well then tell you what. If Bryan won’t do the match right now, Hangman ain’t leaving without a fight. And Hangman will make it fair by giving Bryan the first shot. Hangman puts his hands back and fans chant, “YES! YES! YES!” Bryan wont’ be insulted like that. Bryan drops the mic then SLAPS Hangman! Then they start throwing hands! Fans fire up, Hangman whips but Bryan reveres! Hangman goes up and out to BOOT, then slingshot, but Bryan runs from the Buckshot! This showdown is coming, what happens when these two finally throw down?
AEW takes one more look at Statlander VS Soho.
When Ruby arrived in AEW, there was a long list of women she wanted to face. Statlander was at the top. Kris has been rebuilt, more powerful and more galactic. Kris vows to defeat Ruby and be the first ever TBS Champion as #OUrLeader. Ruby wants to prove to AEW, to the others and to herself that she’s the best. So she has to take on the best. A true dream match, but only one can advance! We’ll see who that is, next Wednesday on Dynamite!
8 Man Tag: Cody Rhodes & Death Triangle VS Andrade El Idolo, Malakai Black & FTR!
The American Nightmare teams with The British Bastard and the Lucha Brothers to take on common enemies. The Face of Lucha Libre, the Dark Father and the AAA Tag Team Champions all want to demean and destroy Cody, Pac, Rey Fenix & Penta El Zero M, but will they be the ones living the nightmare before Thanksgiving?
AEW returns as Death Triangle, and Alex Abrahantes, make their entrance, followed by Cody making his. Tensions are rising as the eight men stare down, and fans chant for “CERO! MIEDO!” The teams sort out, Cody steps up and Dax Harwood starts for his team. Dax and Cody both have heat from Chicago, but Cody seems to like that he has more. He and Dax tie up, go around, Cody puts Dax in a corner but Dax turns it around. Dax lets off, but then he and Cody talk trash. They feel out the grapple, tie up again, and Cody headlocks. Dax powers out, drops, but Cody runs him over! Cody and Dax reset, tie up again, and Dax headlocks.
Cody powers out, Dax runs him over but they keep going. Cody hurdles, Dax kicks low and brings Cody around to slingshot off the ropes. Cody slips out, waistlocks, but Dax bucks the O’Conner Roll. Dax turns into the kick and Rhodes Uppercut! Cody scoops to POWERSLAM! Off comes the weight belt! Fans want the free souvenir, Cody THORWS it way back there!

A nasty way to win an absolute war! Will this alliance be something all four men are thankful for this year?
My Thoughts:
What an awesome AEW right here! Great set up for upcoming things, too. Great promos from Cole & Fish with Best Friends, as well as Kingston, 2point0 and Daniel Garcia, to set up these matches for Rampage, and Britt VS Riho is going to be a great match for the “Black Friday Deal.” I kinda hope Riho wins that, because then she can challenge Britt at “Battle of the Belts,” aka AEW’s Clash of Champions. Britt VS Riho for the title is going to be huge, too, and then it still saves someone like Thunder Rosa for AEW Revolution. I am a little surprised Rosa won tonight, when Britt interfered just as expected. But Rosa might not win against Cargill, so maybe we’re still on track for Britt VS Rosa.
Punk had quite the opening, being part of both an opening promo and opening match, but it all worked great in story. Punk and MJF took some powerful shots at each other, and at the WWE at the same time, and without considering who is Heel and who is Face, I think MJF not only kept even with Punk, he might’ve squeaked that one out. Punk VS QT was a good match, and of course Punk wins. Punk VS MJF can’t be delayed all the way until Revolution, but it almost feels too big for Winter is Coming, Battle of the Belts or the TBS switchover. It’d have to be a half an hour main event for one of those TV specials to feel appropriate.
Christian Cage & Jurassic Express have a good promo to make it known they’re coming for the tag titles, so maybe they’re going to be the ones at Battle of the Belts challenging Lucha Brothers. Sammy Guevara wasn’t on the episode, only Jericho was here to have his moment with 2point0 and Daniel Garcia, I’m sure we’ll get things set up for that TNT Championship next week since Tony Khan’s going to announce more of that card this Friday. Gunn Club taking on Bear Country was to keep that undefeated streak going while also setting things up for them and Darby-Sting. Maybe they face off for Winter is Coming as the one year anniversary of Sting in AEW.
I am really surprised Dante Martin signed the Team Taz contract and left Lio Rush behind. There wasn’t a lot of explanation as to why, that will surely be coming next week, but I kinda hope this means Team Taz can get into the tag division with Dante and Hobbs being a duo. Also, I wonder if something happens where Battle of the Belts gives us an FTW Championship match where Ricky Starks gets to shine while also helping someone else look good. Bryan VS Cabana was awesome stuff, Bryan is really embracing being Heel here. Hangman showing up after Bryan has his match does kinda feed into Bryan’s point from last week, though, but their brawl was really good.
The 8 Man Tag main event was awesome stuff, even with the Cody Rhodes heat kinda distracting from some of it. Cody was surely playing it up, though. He knows many fans are turning on him, he probably didn’t need to throw the belt, but it was a pretty great moment for that belt to be thrown back at him. I do appreciate that, after Pac takes the accidental superkick, he didn’t turn on Cody because he knows that was an accident. The Heels winning here makes sense, it can escalate this feud to something bigger for Winter is Coming before Penta & Fenix defend the tag titles at Battle of the Belts. I still wonder if Andrade will take over The Pinnacle since he’s been spending more time with FTR than MJF has been.
My Score: 9.2/10

Tony Schiavone is in the ring!
Schiavone welcomes out the Blue League’s current points leader, Kyle Fletcher, and of course… Don Callis. But they’re not alone as the rest of the Don Callis Family makes their way out to the ring. Wait, shouldn’t Brian Cage be in New York for Final Battle…? Well anyway, Schiavone says there’s a lot of gold and- Callis takes the mic, and he says, “I have something important to say.” The fans boo and Schiavone excuses himself as Callis says the Don Callis Family are the TRUE One Percenters of professional wrestling! They prove it each and every day!
Murder Machines: The most feared tag team in the world! “Don Callis’ favorite wrestler,” Kyle Fletcher, shows every day why he is THE One Percent! He beat Will Ospreay! He beat Kazuchika Okada! And now, he’s gonna beat Daniel Garcia and win the Continental Classic! Callis hands the mic over to Kyle and Kyle says it might be true that last Saturday wasn’t the best day for Kyle, but anyone watching that match saw the clear bias from the officials in this company! The fans boo as Kyle claims there is an agenda in AEW to see the Don Callis Family NOT succeed. But it doesn’t matter, it changes nothing!
Kyle WILL be the winner of the 2024 Continental Classic. That brings Kyle to Daniel Garcia. “You wanna talk about restoring the feeling, Daniel? I couldn’t care less about your feelings! All I speak are facts! And the fact is, I am the hottest young prospect in this industry, and I will be the future of this whole place!” The fans boo more but Callis says one last thing he wants to say, is when you’re the One Percent, you’re not like the other 99! They are not like all of these fans! They are not like “the boys in the back,” like Mark Davis & Will Hobbs, “a couple of scab workers!” They’re not even in the same business, Hobbs!
And Callis has waited to get Hobbs on a PPV so that the world could watch why they call Konosuke Takeshita “The Alpha.” And Hobbs, YOU are not in the same business as Konosuke, and you find that out at Worlds End! But speaking of, here comes the Powerhouse! Will he and Dunkzilla finish things with the Don Callis Family? Or will the AEW International and ROH World TV Champions get even for last week?

Lio Rush & Action Andretti VS Myles Hawkins & Goldy!
The dysfunction in Top Flight Airlines led to The Bad Child & The Sight to See winning over Darius & Dante Martin, meaning they’re next up to face Private Party. Will this be little more than a tune-up for Lio & Action?

In steps Penelope Ford, and Mrs. Superbad says yes, she was simply observing. But Ford couldn’t help but notice that she and Harley share a lot of similar… facets. Harley asks how much Ford’s cost. Uh, no, not those…
Ford meant that she hasn’t had such a good 2024, either. So from The Bad Girl to the… Harley doesn’t have a good nickname yet. Well, don’t worry about it. Ford will watch Harley’s back and Harley will watch Ford’s. Wait, is something on Harley’s back? No, Harley… Just good luck. FEEL THE WRATH OF HARLEY CAMERON! No, she was being nice to you, Harley.

Hug It Out!” Kris says no, she doesn’t feel like it’s the right time. Kris lets Willow have the ring, is this proof that the #BornAgainKristen isn’t just a nickname?

Brody RAMS Komander into the railing! And then whips him hard into more railing! Brody makes Komander take a seat, then CHOPS him! The fans bark with Brody as he gets space, and Brody runs back in, but Komander ducks! Brody CRASHES into railing!!
Komander has the fans all fired up as he rises! Komander rolls into the ring, the count is climbing, but Brody is rising! So Komander runs corner to corner to go up, up and AWAY!! Direct hit with that escalara cannonball! The fans fire up as Komander rises again! Komander and Brody both head for the ring while fans sing again, “OLE~ OLE OLE OLE~!” Komander has Brody in the drop zone! Komander goes up the corner, but Brody CLUBS him first! Brody has Komander in the Electric Chair Lift, then goes up the corner!? But Komander fights, shifts, and SUPER SUSNET FLIP POWERBOMBS!!
Brody is in the drop zone again and Komander rises! 450 SPLASH!! Cover, TWO!! Brody survives and Komander cannot believe it! “This is Awesome!” as Komander rises and goes to another corner. Komander tunes up the band, runs corner to corner, but Brody SLAPS him first! Brody runs but Komander dodges, Brody POSTS himself! Komander is on the apron and he runs up, to SHOTGUN Brody to the floor! Brody sputters, Komander climbs the corner, and the fans are thunderous! Komander springboards to ARIHARA MOONSAULT! Another direct hit and Komander feels so close to his first points in the C2!
Komander hurries to get in the ring, but then slides out to start a new ring count. Komander climbs again while Brody rises. Komander watches Brody slide in, then tightrope walks to CIELITO LINDO!! But that was on Brody’s back! Komander pushes Brody but that’s a lot of dead weight to push! Brody sits up but Komander KICKS him! Komander roars, the fans fire up, handspring- TORTURE RACK! Brody flips Komander around, GONZO BOMB!! Cover, Brody wins!!
Winner: Brody King, by pinfall (gains 3 points; Komander earns 0)
If it wasn’t clear before, this was a painful punctuation mark, Komander is mathematically ELIMINATED from the semifinals. However, Komander’s final C2 match is Dynamite’s Miracle on 34th Street against Claudio Castagnoli! Can Komander be the biggest spoiler of this entire tournament? Can Brody prove to everyone in the Gold League that the House Always Wins?
My Thoughts:
A great Rampage here for Holiday Bash, though some clear redundancies from last week’s Winter is Coming edition. We got another group Don Callis Promo, and we barely got anything different from Callis and Kyle. The tag match’s only changes were Cage switching in for Archer, even though Cage is in reality defending his ROH World TV Championship in the Hammerstein Ballroom for Final Battle, and then the Callis Family wins this time so Hobbs and Konosuke can be even going towards Worlds End. Now, Konosuke could very well retain the International Championship at Worlds End because NJPW is totally open to Konosuke Takeshita VS Shingo Takagi being Winner Takes All, AEW International and NEVER Openweight titles on the line together.
Lio & Action of course won their match, but the real purpose was to get a confrontation out of them, Private Party and OG Top Flight, Darius & Dante. Good stuff, and it teases anywhere between a Triple Threat to Lio & Action VS Darius & Dante Round 2. Very good promo from Triple J to set up for something, anything really, for 2025. Fight for the Fallen can even be the start of whatever that plan is as part of the “mother of all streams.” And good stuff with the women’s division tonight. Ford & Harley makes a natural duo now given their names, and Willow and Kris could possibly reunite now that Kris is a Face again. That wouldn’t really make up for the weird fumble in the middle where Tony Khan just wanted Kris to get away from Stokely, but hey, this story itself could be really well done.
And great stuff out of Brody VS Komander, really got the drama going before the end. I mean, we all knew Komander was out of the running before tonight, and was most certainly taking the loss here, but Komander got to really show some grit. And now, five people at 6 points going into the final round, they’re really adding great drama to Gold League. Collision tomorrow and then Dynamite Miracle on 34th Street will be some great stuff, but I still think Ospreay should be one of the semifinalists, the second spot can be whoever they want.
My Score: 8.8/10

Backstage interview with Orange Cassidy and Jay White.
Renee Paquette is with Freshly Squeezed and The Switchblade, and says that ahead of their main event Trios match where they team up with Hangman Page, they also must be thinking about their Fatal 4 Way match for the AEW World Championship at Worlds End. Are they more focused on the Death Riders tonight? Or more on each other? Cassidy’s about to speak when White asks Renee to bring the mic over to him. White says Cassidy already gave them a hell of a pep talk in the locker room so he’s all talked out. Where is our focus? Is it on the Death Riders tonight? Is it on each other? Is it on Worlds End?
Make no mistake, Renee, and Mr. Cassidy, White’s focus is on the AEW World Championship. But White knows that they have to make it to Worlds End, so that means relying on people he usually doesn’t rely on. He has no Bang Bang Gang, so that makes he has to rely on the likes of… Orange. And on the likes of Hangman Adam Page. But no, no, no, he is not so stupid to rely on that guy, because he’s only good at one thing: Letting himself and everyone around him down time and time again! So if there is one man they do not need on this team, it is H- HEY! There he is! Hangman Page walks into the room and White does a 180 on his attitude.
Hangman tells White to shut his mouth and listen up. Tonight, Moxley is not White’s nor is he Cassidy’s. Tonight, the champion belongs to Hangman! The Cowboy heads out and White says, “Aye, aye, captain! At least you brought your black jacket so we’re matching tonight! C’mon, partner!” White heads after Hangman, and Cassidy sighs as he puts on his sunglasses. Can the Good, the Bad & the Freshly Squeezed make it past Moxley and his Death Riders? Or will The Maniac, The Decoder & The Bastard use this dysfunction to tear them down?
Darby Allin speaks.
“Darby Allin, Will Ospreay. It’s showtime.”
Will Ospreay speaks.
“Oi, oi, Washington, DC! You’re in for a treat tonight, for the C2 rolls on, and you get to witness an elite dream match as the Aerial Assassin, Will Ospreay, goes one-on-one with Darby Allin. And while I am grateful for saving my neck last week, sir, don’t let that stand in the way because it’s time for warfare, bruv. And no one fairs better in warfare than the Assassin. So allow me to show you why my name is Will Ospreay, and why I am on another level.” Both men need this win if they want to head for Worlds End, who will be one step closer to those semifinals?
AEW TBS Championship: Mercedes Mone VS Anna Jay!
The CEO is still #TwoBeltsMone after holding onto the NJPW Strong Women’s Championship through NJPW Strong Style Evolved. But the walls are really closing in as Mina Shirakawa issued a challenge right after that match, meaning Mone has a date for WrestleDynasty! But will Mone still be the “greatest TBS Champion ever” after facing the Queenslayer? Or will Anna finally make herself the Star of the Show?
The introductions are made, the teal belt is raised, and we see who has gold for Christmas!
The bell rings and the fans rally and duel. Mone and Anna circle, and Mone offers a handshake? Anna takes it, but then MOne SLAPS her! Anna should’ve known better, but she chases Mone to ropes! Mone uses those as a defense, and then Anna backs off. Mone keeps hiding in the ropes but Anna storms up on her. Mone gets around and throws Anna down! Cover, ONE, but Mone clamps on with a chinlock.

Now Mone is frustrated but she drags Anna up. Mone snapmares Anna, runs and METEORAS! Cover, TWO! The fans continue to duel as Anna stays in this. Mone clamps onto Anna and she puts the straitjacket back on! Mone drags Anna from the ropes, stands her up, but Anna RAMS Mone into buckles! But Mone throws Anna down by her hair! Mone goes up, METEORA! Cover, TWO! Mone is furious but Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Mone huffs ‘n’ puffs as she storms around. Anna goes to a corner, but Mone storms up to dig her boots in! The ref counts, Mone lets off, but then she steps back on Anna’s face! Mone lets off as the ref counts, and she brings Anna up for a scoop and SLAM! Cover, TWO! Mone is still upset but she mocks the Anna Jay fans in DC. Mone clamps on with a chinlock and she grinds Anna down. Anna endures, fights up, and she THRWOS Mone away! Mone comes back to DROPKICK Anna down! Cover, TWO! Mone is growing frustrated again, so she KNEES Anna in the back, and clamps on a chinlock! Anna endures as she’s bent back against the knee.

Then Anna goes the other way, LEG LARIAT! A hattrick of her own and Anna puts Mone up top! DANGEROUS JAY KICK! ICONOCLASM! Anna holds on, YANKS Mone right into the Gory Especial, GORY BOMB!! Cover, ROPEBREAK!! Mone survives by fingertips and Anna can’t believe it! The fans rally and duel as hard as they can while Anna grabs legs. Mone kicks Anna away then slips out to the apron. But Anna avoids the shoulder to KNEE LIFT!
Anna spins to LEG LARIAT! And then HOTSHOT NECKBREAKER! Mone flounders, Anna drags her up with a QUEENSLAYER! Anna SLINGS Mone around, and she has the body scissors! Mone is flailing, Mone is fading, but then she BITES Anna’s arm! Anna lets Mone free while fans boo. Mone grabs that arm and wrangles Anna down! STATEMENT MAKER CROSSFACE!!

Mone runs and SUNSET BUCKLE BOMBS! Mone keeps moving, METEORA!! Mone reels Anna in for her Gory Especial, and the MONEY MAKER!! Cover, MONE WINS!
Winner: Mercedes Mone, by pinfall (still AEW TBS Champion)
Anna made Mone work for it, but Mone still earned this win! Kris Statlander is watching in the back, just as she promised she would. Will the #BornAgainKristen make sure Mone is down a title at Worlds End?
FTR speaks.
Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler were at home in Asheville, North Carolina, and Cash says it has been a few days since what happened to them on Collision. And it was over nothing. FTR said they had no problems with the Death Riders. They may not agree with the Death Riders’ methods, and they don’t disagree with the message. AEW does need to change for the better, some people need to be forced into that change. But FTR stopped them from poisoning a man! They weren’t going to sit back and watch them pour cleaning solution down a human being’s throat. That is all they did. And yet that gets them blindfolded, dragged outside, and the crap kicked out of them, left for dead in the cold…
As they were lying on the concrete, Dax was thinking, “What is a life after wrestling? Is there a life after wrestling for FTR?” They built their whole lives around this one thing, so what else is there for them to do? They got off the phone with Doc Sampson just before filming this. Doc says he won’t medically cleared them for the rest of the year. So from now until January 1st, Death Riders better not sleep, because FTR will show up at their doorstep. That won’t be good for them or their families. But on January 1st, Asheville, NC, FTR will be there. They will be in that ring, they will be cleared, and they will fight the Death Riders.
By the way, they won’t be coming alone. #TopGuysOut. Who could Dax & Cash be hinting at as allies against Moxley and his minions?
MJF is here!
Washington, DC is not all that happy to see Maxwell Jacob Friedman going to the ring with a mic in hand, even if he’s dressed in his Hannukah suit. MJF has them cut his music, and he takes a moment to hear all the booing. “Oh, you don’t like me, huh, guys? Good thing I don’t care about the opinions of a bunch of disgustings from DC. I mean, if I did care about your opinion, I wouldn’t have signed on to be an AEW wrestler, I would’ve signed on to become a part of your whack-ass Washington Wizards. Oh, it’s my fault they suck? That’s my fault? I’m sorry.” Some fans actually chant, “Wizards Suck! Wizards Suck!”
MJF says let’s face it, guys. He’s no Scrooge. For crying out loud, it’s the most wonderful time~ of the year~! MJF says pretty soon, the most important holiday, which is part of the most important religion, is coming up. And yes, you guessed it, it’s Hannukah. And if you don’t celebrate that, well sorry, Santa is not real and MJF is not sorry for saying it. The fans chant for “SANTA! SANTA!” which confuses MJF. Santa didn’t give them a lump of coal, it was because their parents were too poor to get real gifts. So everyone just pipe down a bit, okay? The fans boo but MJF continues.
MJF says Hannukah is all about giving, so he is feeling rather philanthropic. Not that anyone in this crowd knows what that means. MJF is about to get a bit emotional, but he wants to talk about a fundraiser he has started. Sorry, he might cry, give him a second. MJF gets fake tears going as he asks for the sad music. The sad piano music plays, and MJF looks into the camera. “Picture this. There’s a small child sitting across from you. It is starving, it needs nourishment, it needs food. Now picture that that small child is this baybay.” A clearly doctored photo of Adam Cole appears on screen, making him look very scrawny.
MJF knows it is hard to look at but don’t avert your eyes. Cut the music, please. The music stops and MJF says right now, if you wanna help the “freakishly small, yellow baybay, all you have to do is scan the QR code you see on your screen so you can buy the Worlds End PPV this Saturday, December 28th. Guys, I’m talking, would you please shut the hell up? Unreal! To think I’m opening up to you hear. And if you buy that PPV, a part of your money will go towards my foundation to help put this small yellow child out of his misery. And for that, and for the fact that I’m better than you, you can thank me later!”
MJF drops the mic but Cole is on the tron! Adam Cole says look! Now he’s the one on the big screen while MJF is the one in the ring, looking like an idiot. As we all know, it is Cole VS MJF for the Dynamite Diamond Ring at Worlds End. And Cole wants to give MJF a heads up. He just had a meeting with Tony Khan. And because Cole knows how badly MJF wants to get his hands on his diamond ring. And if MJF wants to grab that ring before the bell rings, he’ll have to earn it. There are two men who will be ringside to make sure that doesn’t happen. The Kingdom step in, and Adam Cole says MJF will have nowhere to run, and nowhere to hide.
MJF is a dead man and Cole will finally finish this at Worlds End! BOOM. Oh, wait, hold on. Cole must be forgetting something. There was one more thing he wanted to say. Oh, right! Max, is Cole kicking your ass yet? MJF is confused, but surprise! Adam Cole is already in the ring! That video is prerecorded! MJF turns around, and Cole DECKS him! The fans fire up as Cole rains down fists on MJF! MJF pushes Cole away but Cole keeps him from getting away! SUPERKICK! MJF is down, but Cole drags him up and goes to a corner! The fans fire up for the PANAMA- NO, MJF scrambles out of the ring!
MJF gets away by the skin of his teeth, but will Cole kick those teeth down his throat and finally end the Dynamite Diamond Win Streak?
Jamie Hayter speaks.
“You can’t fight what you don’t see. But I see you exactly for what you are, Julia: a coward. Last Saturday on Collision, you decided to finally show up. But was it face to face? No, ma’am. It was when I was beat, when I was tired, and you used your tricks to attack me from behind. That’s a sneaky, classless move, Julia. Message sent. I know you’re listening, Julia, so here’s my message to you. Fight for the Fallen. I’m gonna serve you a dish best served cold. I’m gonna drop you on your head, and I’m gonna serve you up a heavy dose of Hayterade. See you then, mate.” Will Hayter kick off the New Year by crushing Julia Hart?
Hook & Katsuyori Shibata VS Christian Cage & Nick Wayne w/ The Patriarchy!
The Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil wants revenge for what The Patriarchy did to his father, Taz, and this could be a start. Will The Wrestler’s return to AEW be just the thing? Or will Captain Charisma and The Prodigy look to #SendHook home emptyhanded?
AEW returns as Hook makes his entrance, Shibata by his side. The teams sort out and after Christian hugs his “son,” Nick starts against Hook. The bell rings and the fans rally up behind Hook. Hook and Nick tie up, and Nick goes for the bad arm! Nick wrenches, hammerlocks, then headlocks for a takeover. Nick grinds forearms into Hook’s face but Hook gets up.

Christian goes to the ropes, Shibata lets off clean, and the fans rally up. Shibata and Christian tie up again, Shibata slips around to a waistlock, then cravats to snapmare Christian down. Shibata sits Christian up, but Christian avoids the Penalty Kick! The fans cheer as Shibata stares Christian down.
The two go again, Christians hoots around and hooks arms! Shibata powers out and the two go again. They feel things out, and Christian kicks low! Then he SLAPS Shibata! Christian runs, but Shibata DECKS him! The fans fire up and Shibata CHOPS! And CHOPS! And CHOPS again! And again! Christian falls, Shibata covers, TWO! Christian crawls but Shibata CLUBS him. Shibata tags Hook but Christian gets away to tag Nick! Nick storms up but Hook drop steps to waistlock! Nick flails, throws elbows, and then TOSSES Hook out! Hook lands on the apron, and he DUMPS Nick out! Christian runs up but Hook ROCKS Christian first!
Shibata storms in and UPPERCUTS Christian! Hook RAMS Christian, then SHOVELS him up and out onto Nick! The fans fire up as the Patriarchy is down! Hook tags Shibata and Shibata storms over. Christian whispers to Nick and they go to the ring slowly. Shibata waits on someone to get in, and even sits down cross legged! Christian storms up but Shibata stands. Shibata is on guard as both Christian and Nick reach ropes. Shibata tags to Hook when Nick steps back in, and they circle again. Nick kicks but Hook blocks! Hook spins Nick around, REDRUM! Nick has the ROPEBREAK but Hook drags him back!
Nick fights, flails, turns things around, and Christian HOTSHOTS the bad arm! The fans boo as the ref misses that, and then Nick BLASTS Shibata! Nick grabs Hook’s bad arm and drags him around while Dynamite goes picture in picture,
Nick drags Hook up to wrench and ELBOW BREAKER! Cover, TWO! Nick watches Hook writhe and crawl to a corner, then storms up on him. Nick drags Hook up to bump him off buckles.

Nick drags Hook up to whip him hard into a corner! Hook flounders against ropes but Nick storms up on him. Nick whips Hook hard into another corner! Christian taunts Hook while Nick storms over to him. Nick snapmares Hook, isolates the bad arm, then STOMPS it! Hook writhes more while Holiday Bash returns to single picture.

The fans boo but Nick flexes, just like Christian. Nick brings Hook up, but Hook hits an EXPLODER! The fans fire up while both men are down! The ref starts a standing count while both men stir. They both crawl, hot tag to Shibata! Shibata BOOTS Nick, DECKS Christian, and then BOOTS Nick in a corner! Shibata CHOPS Nick! And CHOPS! And CHOPS! CHOPS! MACHINE GUN CHOPS!

BREAKING NEWS for Christmas Collision!
As a reminder, it will be LIVE coast to coast on TNT this Saturday, 8 PM Eastern or whenever NCAA College Football Playoff coverage ends. That said, Adam Cole may have gotten one over on MJF tonight, but he and MJF are going to be face to face live and in person for final words before Worlds End. Plus, the Continental Classic will keep things cheery and bright as Darby Allin will face Claudio Castagnoli, and Will Ospreay will face Ricochet! Rivals all face off, who will look to take over Gold League? And in Blue League, Mark Briscoe battles The Beast Mortos while Daniel Garcia faces Shelton Benjamin! Will the Sussex County Chicken survive the menacing minotaur? Will Red Death live up to the Standard of Excellence?
Chris Jericho speaks.
“I was once known as The King of the World. And everybody wants to rule the world. But every king needs a throne from which to rule. A castle, a capital, a city. And there is no better perch, no greater vantage point from which to rule the world than New York City. From the urine soaked sidewalks of Broadway to the tear-filled potholes of Jamaica Queens. From the brownstones of Tribeca to the poshest penthouses of Spanish Harlem. From the lowliest of subjects, the ubiquitous rats, to the prominent powerbrokers and popstars, paparazzi in their wake, all have anointed me, Chris Jericho, the King of New York! And I’ll be damned if I let anyone take my crown.”
The Learning Tree thinks highly of himself as always, but he better take Final Battle seriously! Friday, December 20th, Jericho defends the ROH World Heavyweight Championship against Matt Cardona, who is #AlwayZReady! Will “The Complete” Cardona take away the Nueve’s title?
Mariah May speaks.
“Thunder Rosa. When you were working as a social worker, why did you wanna become a wrestler? Was it to make your family proud? Cute. A hero is just a dreamer who doesn’t realize they’re dreaming. I’m no hero. I spent my entire career just looking out for me, and I’d say it’s served me pretty well. How dare you say this Women’s Division is alive and well when I’ve eclipsed everyone here, just by being me. And if I was here four years ago, you wouldn’t have even been hired. So let’s do your little Tijuana Street Fight so you can go on about your heritage and your culture, and please bring your father. I would love to end two generations in one night.
“And Papa Rosa? Does being a failure run in the family? I won’t be bringing my father to Worlds End. I don’t want him to se what I’m going to do.” The Glamour has sent her ultimatum, but will she regret running her mouth?
Tony Schiavone is in the ring.
Schiavone says that later tonight, we will see Will Ospreay VS Darby Allin in the Continental Classic. But Ospreay has his work cut out for him as live this Saturday on Christmas Collision, in the Hammerstein Ballroom, he will face this man! Let’s welcome in Ricochet! The fans fire up as The One & Only makes his way to the ring. Schiavone congratulates Ricochet on his six points so far, and says he could advance to Orlando, Florida. But there has been perhaps a change in attitude and demeanor lately. Ricochet says, “But didn’t it look real good on me, though?” Schiavone says sure, but wait! Here comes the Hurt Business!
Ricochet is a little surprised, and maybe a little worried. Montel Vontavious Porter, Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin all go to the ring and fans sing along, “We Hurt People! We Hurt People!” Ricochet nervously asks what’s up, and MVP brings him in close. Ricochet says everyone looks great. They collectively look great! But honestly, he’s happy they’re here. He wants to ask them if they saw how he beat the brakes off of Komander. MVP says yeah, they saw that. Then did they see him handle Brody King? Yeah, they saw that. And Ricochet has six points! Ricochet figures after tonight, Shelton might have six points, and they could face each other in the near future.
Ricochet says they could keep this business on lock. Wow, you don’t say? Absolutely! Facts! Because the last two guys Ricochet has to face, they’re facing each other tonight, Ospreay and Darby. So Ricochet is going to watch that. And then Saturday, he has Ospreay. Ospreay will see that different side of Ricochet, you feeling him? MVP says yeah, he’s feeling it. Does Ricochet still have the business card? MVP wants to see it. Ricochet brings the card out, and Lashley grabs him by the neck! MVP takes the card, and he RIPS IT UP! MVP has revoked his invitation, and he says nobody likes a kiss ass. Lashley lets Ricochet go, straightens the suit out, and pats Ricochet on the back.
Ricochet leaves the ring, and he says they can talk about this later. MVP tells Shelton that he’s got business to handle, so go hurt somebody. MVP & Lashley fist bump with Shelton before Lashley heads out per Continental Classic rules. MVP joins commentary to watch this closely, will the Standard of Excellence be able to bring down The Beast Mortos?
AEW Continental Classic, Blue League: Shelton Benjamin VS The Beast Mortos!
The bell rings and we’re on the clock. Shelton and Mortos circle, tie up, and Shelton waistlocks. Mortos fights the lift, fires elbows, and then ROCKS Shelton again and again!

Back to railing! Back to apron! Then into steel steps! Shelton leaves Mortos behind to the mercy of the count. Mortos writhes at 4 of 10, sits up at 6, but hobbles to his feet at 7.

MVP says nice doing business with everyone, and both he and Lashley celebrate with Shelton. But they’re not done, as they beat up on Mortos! The fans boo as The All Mighty beats up on Mortos, but MVP says Mortos could use a little more of what Shelton gave him during the match. Show ’em what we do! Shelton drags Mortos up, reels him back in, and GERMAN SUPLEXES! Mortos sputters and MVP tells Daniel Garcia, this is what you have to look forward to on Saturday! But wait! Garcia is here! Garcia has them cut the music so he can tell MVP, “I’m not stupid, I can do the math. There’s three of y’all and one of me.”
Garcia knows what’d happen if he came to the ring on his own. But he doesn’t care, because everyone in DC wants to see a fight tonight! Let’s get it! But wait, MARK BRISCOE is here! The Sussex County Chicken won’t let Garcia fight alone, so they brawl with Shelton and Lashley! But Lashley shoves Garcia back and CLOBBERS him! MVP CRACKS his cane on Briscoe’s back! MILE HIGH SPINEBUSTER for Garcia, and a LARIAT for Briscoe! Then Lashley sets Mark up for Shelton’s SUPERKICK! MVP hands the TNT Championship to Shelton, they’re clearly planning things beyond the C2. Will Shelton snatch himself a golden ticket one way or another this Saturday?
Backstage interview with Ricochet.
Renee is now with The One & Only and asks about that interaction in the ring. It seems business with The Hurt Syndicate is off the table. Ricochet says honestly, he doesn’t know. They gave him the card, he thought he was doing what they wanted, but… Ricochet is a bit frazzled but he says that we’re not going to worry about that. The Syndicate can do what they do. But for Ricochet, he’ll worry about the Continental Classic. Like he said out there, “ya boy’s already got 6 points.” But on Saturday, he steps into the ring with one of the main reasons he even came to AEW, and that is Will Ospreay.
Ricochet says it is funny. He didn’t come to AEW just to step into the ring with Ospreay. He came here to shut the world up and prove he can beat Will Ospreay. And so, as he said, he is going to have his eyes glued to this next match, HAHA~~! But then he turns around and Swerve Strickland is there, as is Prince Nana sipping his coffee. Nana nods and Swerve says, “What up, turd?” Oh, cute, call him a turd. The fans are loudly chanting, “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” as Swerve says when Ricochet first showed up, it was only a matter of time before the real Rico- No, the real Trevor showed himself.
Oh, going there, huh? Yeah. But Swerve says in the 14 years of knowing Ricochet, Swerve thought Ricochet had changed. But turns out, no, that’s still the same ol’ Trevor: a follower. Hate to tell you, Ricochet, but that won’t work here. Because AEW is whose house? Swerve’s House! Ricochet laughs that off and says he was wondering how long it’d take for him to hear that stuff. He’s glad Swerve brought that. But he also knows the real Swerve. And Swerve didn’t win the C2, now did he? So Ricochet knows it will eat Swerve up when Ricochet does. HAHA~! Ricochet leaves and Swerve says that’s why Ricochet’s still bald.
But win, lose or draw for Ricochet, will Swerve be waiting on the other side of Worlds End with the Killshot?
RJ City presents Toni Storm: Portrait of a Rockstar.
Toni Storm introduces herself to RJ, even though they’ve met… She’s so excited, look at all the lights and cameras. So cool. RJ asks Toni to explain where she’s been. Toni says she’s from Gold Coast, Australia, and growing up, she loved three things: Wrestling, rock music, and the grind. She would grind it out on the indies any chance she got. And now it’s led her hear to AEW! Uh, what? Yeah, hard to believe, huh? Okay, but uh, what about her history with AEW? Toni says she’s watched every show since the start, and she cannot believe she’s finally made it. Um, okay… What about her being a THREE-TIME AEW Women’s World Champion?
Toni laughs and says it’s a bit early to be thinking about that, right? But thank you. Okay, okay, what if he were to say a name like Saraya? Legend! Mercedes Mone? Icon! Mariah May? Toni takes a breath, and says, “Best in the business today.” RJ is exasperated. What if he were to say, “Timeless?” Timeless Toni Storm! No, no, the catchphrase is the other way around. It’s #ToniTime! Right? Rock ‘n’ roll fingers! Toni Time! Okay, great talking with you! Toni hugs RJ, heads out, and leaves RJ absolutely speechless. Is Toni alright?
AEW Continental Classic, Gold League: Will Ospreay VS Darby Allin!
As we heard from the Aerial Assassin earlier tonight, he is grateful for the save from Claudio Castagnoli, but priority one is winning the C2. As for The Relentless One, it’s showtime! Will Will Ospreay be one step closer to the semifinals? Or will Darby once again throw his whole body into earning the victory?
The bell rings and DC is already fired up as the two stare down. The clock is ticking, though, so the two men circle and tie up. Darby waistlocks, Ospreay switches but Darby slips away. They reset, the fans rally and duel, and the two tie up again. Ospreay puts Darby on ropes, the ref counts, and Ospreay lets off slowly.

Ospreay avoids disaster and wipes his brow, but the ref has to check Darby. The fans are losing their minds while Darby sputters, but Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Darby stirs as the ring count starts, and Ospreay has the fans fire up again. Darby stands at 4, Ospreay PLANCHAS Darby back down! Ospreay storms around while Darby sputters again. Ospreay drags Darby up to CHOP him, then brings him around to put in the ring. Ospreay storms in after Darby but Darby bails out the other side. Ospreay waits as the ring count starts again. Darby clutches a leg while he slowly sits up. The count reaches 5 of 10 as Darby hobbles over to the steel steps. Darby drags himself in at 7, but Ospreay is right on him! BACKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Darby toughs it out so Ospreay eggs him on.
Ospreay looms over Darby while Darby sits up, and Ospreay grabs at him. Darby shoves Ospreay away but can’t stand up. Ospreay stands Darby up just to ROCK him in the back! Darby crumples but Ospreay brings him up again. Ospreay scoops to SLAM Darby, then runs to JUMPING KNEE DROP! Cover, TWO! Darby is still tougher than that so Ospreay keeps on him. Ospreay stomps Darby’s leg, sits him up, and KNEES him in the back! Ospreay KNEES Darby in the back again, then clamps on a chinlock! Darby endures being bent backwards, and the Holiday Bash returns to single picture.
The fans rally, Darby fights up and fires body shots. Ospreay CHOPS Darby and Darby goes to ropes. Ospreay whips, Darby springboards, COFFIN SPLASH! The fans fire up while Darby rises again. Darby fires hands, then runs, but into the TIGER WALL KICK! But Darby catches Ospreay to a GUILLOTINE FACELOCK! Ospreay powers out to suplex but Darby slips free! THROWBACK STUNNER! Both men are down and the fans fire up for “A E DUB! A E DUB!” Darby and Ospreay slowly rise up, and Darby goes to a corner! Darby climbs but Ospreay CLUBS him first! Ospreay climbs up but Darby fires elbows!
Ospreay drops down but he tucks Darby in! CHEEKY NANDOS! Darby falls, Ospreay puts him in the drop zone! Ospreay goes up, for the LEAP OF FAITH! No, he lands out as Darby moves! Darby hops on, but Ospreay FLINGS Darby away, then HIDDEN BLADE!! And then underhooks for the STORM- CODE RED!! Cover, TWO!! Ospreay escapes and the fans are thunderous! Both men are down so a standing count begins. They both sit up at 3 of 10, and Darby hits Ospreay first! Ospreay hits Darby back! Darby fires forearms but Ospreay ROCKS him back! Darby comes back with more shots, but Ospreay CHOPS!
Darby wobbles but he stays up. Darby fires more forearms, but Ospreay CHOPS again! Ospreay eggs on “Big Boy” Darby, so Darby fires more shots!

Ospreay narrowly escapes, and he SUPERKICKS! Springboard, OSC- NO, Darby SLAM DUNKS Ospreay!
Darby hurries to springboard, COFFIN DROP!! Cover, TWO?!?! Ospreay survives and the fans are absolutely loving this! “This is Awesome!” as both men go to the same corner. Darby looks to the floor, and he brings Ospreay up! Ospreay fights the lift, throws body shots, but Darby CLUBS Ospreay! Ospreay hops down to the apron, and he BOOTS Darby’s legs out! Darby is stuck up top, but Ospreay drags him off there, and into position for a STYLES CLASH TO THE FLOOR!!! The fans are losing their minds all over again, but Ospreay clutches a foot. Ospreay may have jammed it up bracing for that fall, but Darby is all but unconscious!
The ring count is climbing, the fans hope these two “FIGHT FOREVER!” but there’s a 20 minute time limit. Ospreay rolls into the ring and he lets the count go to 6 of 10. The fans then chant, “You Killed Darby!” The count is 8! 9! DARBY SPRINGS TO LIFE! But into an OSCUTTER!!! Cover, TWO!?!?! Darby survives and shocks everyone! But Ospreay vows to end this! Underhooks, STORM- NO, Darby pops free! SCORPION DEATH DROP!!! Darby hurries up top and takes aim, COFFIN DROP!! But Darby goes right back up! COFFIN DROP again!! Cover, DARBY WINS!!!
Winner: Darby Allin, by pinfall (gains 3 points; Ospreay earns 0)
“Relentless” is almost not enough to describe Darby Allin! This epic first-time-ever match also gives us quite the traffic jam in Gold League! FOUR men stand at 2-1 with 6 points, and we will see them all face off on Christmas Collision! Will Ospreay VS Ricochet, Darby Allin VS Claudio Castagnoli, who will be the two that come out ahead? But speaking of the Death Riders, here they come! They have their main event Six Man Tag, but the Swiss Cyborg is eyeing his next target. Will Darby stick it to the Death Riders when he makes sure Claudio does NOT make it to Worlds End?
Six Man Tag: The Death Riders VS Orange Cassidy, Jay White & Hangman Page!
AEW returns, and while Darby Allin was allowed to leave unscathed, Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta & Pac will certainly deal plenty of damage to all three contenders. Will the Death Riders be riding high on the road to Orlando? Or will Freshly Squeezed, The Switchblade & The Blackhat Cowboy actually make a formidable trio?
The teams sort out and Hangman starts against Yuta. The bell rings but Hangman of course wants Moxley to man up and tag in. Yuta says no way, so Hangman tags Cassidy. The fans boo and Hangman argues with Jay White, but Cassidy throws his sunglasses at Yuta before firing off fists! Yuta fires back, the fans fire up as Cassidy fires a flurry! Yuta shoves Cassidy but Cassidy SHOTGUNS Yuta! The fans cheer as Cassidy stares down with Moxley. Moxley eggs Cassidy on, then he gets away from Cassidy. Pac grabs Cassidy, Yuta runs up, but Cassidy BOOTS Yuta and ELBOWS Pac! Yuta comes back but Cassidy DUMPS him out!
Yuta bumps into Pac, Cassidy springboards to CANNONBALL! Down go Pac and Yuta! Cassidy puts Yuta in, but Moxley THROAT CHOPS Cassidy! The fans boo but Yuta tags Moxley. Moxley brings Cassidy around to put in the ring, and then drags him up to reel him in! Moxley lifts Cassidy, but Cassidy fights and flails! Moxley tries to hold on, but Cassidy powers up to BEACH BREAK! At least, halfway between that and a backdrop. Moxley and Cassidy still crawl, but then White leaves Cassidy hanging! Hangman still tags in, but so does Yuta! Hangman CLOBBERS Yuta, DECKS Pac, and then BOOTS Yuta!
Hangman triangle jumps to LARIAT Pac! Hangman dodges Yuta to scoop and FALL AWAY SLAM! Hangman kips up, stares Moxley down, then goes out after Pac. Hangman pushes Pac aside to go for Moxley but Marina Shafir stands in the way. She’s a problem as always, but Yuta CLUBS Hangman on the back! Yuta puts Hangman in, then runs up, but into a fireman’s carry! Yuta fights free, runs, but into a LARIAT! Hangman snarls and he TOSSES Yuta to the corner. Hangman dares Moxley to man up and tag in! Moxley grins, but then Jay White tags in!? The fans are torn while Hangman and White argue about this.
The ref tells Hangman he has to step out so Hangman steps out. And then he LEAVES! Hangman already made it clear he only cared so long as he got to beat up Death Riders, have White’s antics just cost the team? Moxley does tag in and he runs up on White! White clinches but Moxley slips free! White BLASTS Yuta and Pac to deny Moxley an escape, but Moxley CLOBBERS White! Moxley argues with the ref now, and Claudio UPPERCUTS Cassidy! The fans boo but then Moxley gives White a PILEDRIVER! Death Riders are in control as Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Moxley drags White toa cover, TWO!! White barely gets his arm up, but Moxley drags him around. Moxley puts White in the corner, tags Pac, and the Death Riders mug White. Pac pulls White’s hair and Yuta CHOKES White, but Yuta lets off as the ref counts. Pac then digs his boots in while the ref’s busy! Marina taunts White with the briefcase that holds the title, but the ref finally notices the shenanigans. Pac lets off to argue with the ref, and Moxley gets a cheap shot in! Pac BLASTS Cassidy off the apron, too! White gets up, fights back with haymakers and CHOPS, but Yuta YANKS him down!
White sputters but Pac goes out to fetch him. Pac puts White in the ring, covers, TWO! Pac drags White up to cravat, and Moxley tags in so the Death Riders can mug White. Moxley ROCKS White, CLAWS White’s back, then CLAWS him again! Moxley brings White up to climb the corner. Moxley rains down fists, Claudio gets a cheap shot on Cassidy, and Moxley goes all the way to TEN! Moxley argues with the ref now, and Claudio gets a cheap shot on White! Moxley storms up on White while the Holiday Bash returns to single picture. Moxley drags White up, turns him, and hits a NECKBREAKER!
Tag to Yuta and Yuta drags White around, to then drop a KNEE! Yuta kneels on White’s neck, waits for the ref to count, and then steps off at 4. Yuta scuffs White, White rises up to CHOP! Yuta pulls White’s ear! The ref counts, the fans tell Yuta off, but Moxley gets another cheap shot in on Cassidy! But then White clinches to EXPLODER Yuta up and out to the floor! Claudio is disappointed but White sees he has no one! Yuta crawls into the ring while White shouts for Orange! Yuta tags Pac, and Pac runs up, but White dodges! White CHOPS Pac, and CHOPS, and CHOPS again! Pac kicks low, runs, but into a BACKDROP!
The fans fire up and its Guns Up for the DC Gold Members! White hauls Pac up but Pac fights the urenage! Pac elbows White away, runs up, but White puts him on the apron! But Pac slingshots in for a CUTTER! White sputters and Pac waits on him to stand. Pac SOBATS, KICKS, and SOBATS! Pac runs, but White avoids the boot! White LARIATS Pac inside-out! Pac staggers up, into the sleeper! CUTTHROAT PLEX! The fans fire up and White says BANG. White runs, Claudio steps in the way, but White still heads back for Pac. Pac dodges to SNAP GERMAN! Pac shakes out the stars while White flounders.
Pac crawls over, tag to Moxley. Cassidy rises, but he’s still so far away! Moxley drags White up, talks trash, but White slips around! CUTTHROAT PLEX! Moxley roars as he rises up, but White gets around again! DDT!! Moxley is dazed, White flounders over, hot tag to Cassidy! Cassidy goes up to DEEP IMPACT! The fans fire up and Cassidy “unleashes” those kicks! Then he actually kicks and stomps away on Moxley! Cassidy runs, but he ducks ‘n’ dodges first before he tilt-o-whirl DDTS! Moxley flounders, staggers, and Yuta gets in! Cassidy ducks ‘n’ dodges Yuta now, tilt-o-whirl- NO, Yuta stops that!
Yuta suplexes, STUN DOG- NO, Yuta stops that, too! Yuta GERMAN SUPLEXES Cassidy! White gets in, CUTTHROAT PLEX! Pac baits White into a corner and BOOTS him down! Pac goes up top, but Cassidy goes right after him! White gets outta the way before the SUPERPLEX! The fans are thunderous as Cassidy rises, but Moxley is in!

Hangman whips, Moxley reverses, but Hangman goes to the apron!
The fans fire up as Hangman loads up! Hangman BOOTS Moxley, then Cassidy hits an ORANGE PUNCH!! Hangman is pissed as Cassidy hits his target! Pac grabs Hangman’s legs, but Hangman kicks him away! Yuta sends Cassidy into Hangman! Yuta suplexes, but into STUN DOG MILLIONAIRE! Hangman slingshots, Cassidy dodges, BUCKSHOT hits Yuta!! And probably not on purpose… Pac returns, Hangman dodges, White gets Pac with BLADERUNNER!! White and Hangman argue about this, but Cassidy sighs. Moxley rolls Cassidy up! Holding the waistband!! DEATH RIDERS WIN!!
Winners: Death Riders, by pinfall
White and Hangman were so busy with each other, they didn’t save their teammate! Cassidy gets pissed with both of them, but now it doesn’t matter because Worlds End is every man for themselves. But wait, the Death Riders are flanking the ring, and Moxley has a chair! Cassidy, White & Hangman realize this, and now they stand back-to-back-to-back. They finally fight as a united front as they throw hands on the Death Riders! Cassidy DECKS Pac, White DECKS Claudio and Hangman DECKS Moxley! The Death Riders and their enemies brawl on the outside, but Marina makes sure Moxley gets outta there!
ORANGE PUNCH for Pac! Hangman and Yuta fire hands now and Hangman sends Yuta into railing! Hangman still wants to take out Moxley, but so do White and Cassidy. Will Worlds End be where Moxley’s reign of terror ends? Or will The Maniac AEW World Champion use all of his enemies against each other like he did tonight?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite here, a lot of action but also a lot of set-up for the following weeks. Great promo from FTR to give us a kayfabe reason for them to take time off for two weeks. Granted, everyone is getting time off next week because the Christmas episode is being recorded this weekend for that big Hammerstein Ballroom booking. But anyway, FTR and friends against Death Riders, that’ll be a lot of fun for Fight for the Fallen, can’t wait to see it. Great promo stuff from MJF and Adam Cole ahead of their Dynamite Diamond Ring match. I don’t usually cheer Heels but I could not help but laugh at the Photoshop’d extra skinny Adam Cole. Great use of prerecorded message from Cole, too. Their faceoff for Christmas Collision is probably the go-home segment and that could go either way.
Good promo from Hayter to call out Julia Hart, but I’m surprised their match won’t be on Worlds End. At the same time, I get it, Julia needs time to get that ring rust off before wrestling such a big match so a few more days to prepare is fine. Plus, if Hayter VS Hart is given proper time on Fight for the Fallen, that’ll really help that card and this feud. Very good vignette promo from Jericho to put himself over while also simultaneously putting down and putting over New York. As much as fans might want Cardona to win, I still feel Jericho is going to win so that he can take credit for ROH getting a cable TV deal.
Very good promo from Mariah May to call out Rosa and talk down on the Tijuana Street Fight. Depending on how AEW wants to play this, I could see Rosa winning since this is her match idea so that she and Toni Storm revisit their feud as if it were the first time. Because yes, they continue the genius idea that Toni Storm doesn’t remember anything of her AEW career. In essence, Toni seems to think she’s still that young indie wrestler who hadn’t even made it to WWE. This could be played as Toni just playing us all, or as Toni actually having another psychological break where she really thinks she’s old school Toni Storm, and it’s genius either way.
Great TBS Championship match from Mone, and of course she retained at Strong Style Evolved. Apparently Mone VS Hazuki was another great match from Mone, I wish I had the time to watch Strong Style Evolved. But Mone VS Kris for Worlds End followed by Mone VS Mina for WrestleDynasty, like, one of those has to give. Mone is still a great Heel, but she needs a comeuppance at some point, and the last big PPV of AEW 2024 and the first-ever WrestleDynasty are each proper stages for a big loss to happen. Then Mone can then focus on one company, and it’ll certainly be AEW over NJPW.
Very good tag match from Hook & Shibata VS The Patriarchy, but it works that The Patriarchy cheat this win. Hook VS Nick is going to happen in the Hammerstein Ballroom, though I think it’ll be for the Dynamite Miracle on 34th Street episode that’s being taped this weekend. Otherwise, they would’ve just told us it was for Christmas Collision and there we go. But either way, Hook losing here means he is of course winning against Nick Wayne, and then maybe, just maybe, Hook goes after Christian for Worlds End or even Fight for the Fallen.
Great stuff with Ricochet tonight, as he doubles down on being this cocky side of himself, only to get rejected by The Hurt Syndicate and called out by Swerve. That sets up a lot of stuff for Ricochet to do after Worlds End, even if he isn’t Continental Champion. Ricochet’s promo was also a great segue into the great C2 match of Shelton VS Mortos. Great win for Shelton, and then the beatdown on Mortos bringing out Garcia and Briscoe was good stuff. Garcia VS Shelton is going to be great, and I do like the tease of Shelton wanting the TNT Championship. 2025 is definitely going to be Hurt Syndicate climbing up the ranks and grabbing up belts, so I could see Shelton being the first guy to do that.
Good promos from Darby and Ospreay to help open the show, and then just an absolute instant classic for their match. Darby scared us all again with that horrifying crash landing on the apron, but somehow he’s still in one piece. Darby winning wasn’t so much a shocker, but it is surprising they’ve given us quite the log jam at 6 points. Christmas Collision is going to be great stuff just on the drama of who comes away with 9 points. Ospreay VS Ricochet and Darby VS Claudio, that is great timing given those are some hot rivalry matches. And Darby winning was a great segue for Death Riders to come out and go to their main event match.
Great promo from Cassidy, White & Hangman to help hype this match, and it went about how I expected. Hangman abandoning the team was good stuff, because he of course came back when we least expected it. But at the same time, with Death Riders having extra people, they of course snatched that win away. The Fatal 4 Way is going to be great, but we’ve still got time to figure out this go-home math. And even then, it’s a Fatal 4 AND Christian Cage could choose to cash in at some point, the formula for this go-home math is too complex. But that said, I actually feel like Christian Cage should cash in. Imagine Christian as world champion being the last moment of AEW 2024 and then Fight for the Fallen, New Year’s Day, Christian opens the show just to gloat.
My Score: 8.9/10
