“In a world where survival is everything, two sides prepare for battle.”

Who survives? Who owns the night? It all collides, and here tonight, anything can happen! “See? I told you it’d be epic.”

Paul Heyman is again surprised by Kayla Braxton.

Can she please stop doing that? And he knows what she’ll ask: a question! Get it? Heh. Heyman says he doesn’t know a thing about the Egg of Cleopatra. But if you’re looking for a suspect, this is an arena full of people from Brooklyn! ‘Ey, oh, ey, how you doin’? No she wasn’t going to ask about that. She’s talking about the rumors that Brock Lesnar’s suspension is no longer indefinite. Heyman sighs. Go ask Adam PEARCE that question since Pearce has a problem with Brrrock. Lesnarrr. Heyman heads out, but if it isn’t indefinite, how long will Lesnar have to wait until he can come back for Roman?

 

Big E VS Roman Reigns w/ Paul Heyman!

Raw has already won Survivor Series in more ways than one, but this isn’t about the brands. The New Day has been on the receiving end of the Bloodline’s beatdowns, but the Powerhouse of Positivity won’t stand for that! Will the WWE World Champion make the Reigning, Defending, Undisputed Universal Heavyweight Champion ACKNOWLEDGE E? Or will the Tribal Chief, the Head of the Table, be the one left standing at the end of the night?

The bell rings and the two circle. They tie up, Roman powers Big E but Big E powers Roman to a corner. The ref counts the break, Big E lets off cleanly. Roman and Big E circle again, tie up, and they go around. Big E shoves Roman to the corner, then storms over. Roman bails out to cool things off. Heyman gives Roman a pep talk, “Whose tribe is this, my Tribal Chief?” Big E tells Roman to get his mind right before coming back. Roman goes up the steps to get in at 8 of 10.

Big E whips but Roman LEAPING LARIATS! Cover, TWO! Roman rains down fists, then stomps away on Big E. Roman paces, brings Big E up and bumps him off buckles.

Big E CLOBBERS Roman with an elbow! Cover, ONE! Big E KICKS Roman to the corner, then drags him to the apron. Big E CLUBS away on Roman, goes to the apron, and SPLASHES but only gets apron! Roman knew that move well and Big E is clutching a knee.

Roman slides out the side, comes in around the way, and hits a DRIVE-BY DROPKICK! Big E is down and raises a finger up. Fans are torn as Roman gets Big E up and into the ring. Big E flounders to a corner, Roman storms over and stomps, punches, and rains down on Big E. The ref backs Roman off, Big E gets up but Roman DECKS him with an uppercut! Cover, ONE! Roman is annoyed but he comes back to drop an elbow on Big E! Cover, ONE! Roman wraps on a chinlock and grinds Big E down. Big E endures, fights up, throws body shots, but runs into Roman’s elbow! Cover, TWO! Big E shakes out the cobwebs but Heyman says Big E is trying to humiliate Roman.

Roman hears the fans rallying up for Big E and gets upset. Roman drags Big E up, but Big E ROCKS him with forearms! Big E whips Roman to a corner but runs into a BOOT! Roman runs and BOOTS Big E down! Cover, TWO! Roman is again annoyed at the fans chanting for Big E. “Shut your mouths, Brooklyn! Or I’ll come out there and slap those mouths!” Roman throws Big E out, goes out after him and CLUBS him. Roman POSTS Big E and Big E falls! Roman drags Big E up, POSTS him again, then refreshes the count. Roman wants another count to beat up on Big E. “This ain’t New Day, this ain’t no comedy crap here.” Roman whips but Big E reverses and Roman is sent into steps!

Both men are down on the outside as the ring count climbs! The count is past 5, Big E and Roman get up. Big E and Roman both get in at 9! Roman shakes out his bad arm while Big E slowly rises. Roman is up in a corner, Big E counters the punch with an OVERHEAD Belly2Belly! And then another! Roman flounders up, runs in and Big E gets him for the SIDE Belly2Belly! Fans fire up and Big E swivels them hips! Big E runs and BIG SPLASHES! Big E claps and the fans join in, “NEW! DAY ROCKS!” Roman slowly rises, Big E spins him, dodges the clothesline but not the SAMOAN DROP! Cover, TWO! Both men are down but Big E crawls to a corner.

Big E slowly gets up, Roman storms over and throws point-blank lariats! Roman gets all the way to 9, Big E clinches! Roman punches his way out, then runs in, to hit the tenth! Big E staggers around, Roman runs in again, but into the Urenag-E! Cover, TWO! Big E focuses, gets Roman around and has the leg for a STRETCH MUFFLER! Roman can only endure as he hangs upside-down! Even Heyman is shocked! Roman powers up to sunset flip! TWO, Roman DEADLIFTS Big E for a SIT-OUT POWERBOMB! Cover, TWO!! Both men are down again and Heyman coaches Roman. Roman rises, goes to the corner and fans are torn as he locks ‘n’ loads.

Roman aims, runs in but Big E dodges to come back, but into Roman’s URENAGE! Cover, TWO! Big E survives and Roman can’t believe it! Fans chant “ROCKY! ROCKY!” while Roman slowly gets back up. Roman grits his teeth, talks to himself as he adjusts his glove and reloads. SUPERMAN PUNCH! But Big E only drops to a knee?! Big E is powering up and fans fire up with him! Roman SUPERMAN PUNCHES! Big E drops, but he pounds the mat?! Big E is getting back up and fans fire up more! Roman reloads, SUPERMAN PUNCH AGAIN!!

The ref counts, Roman lets go at 4 and then HOTSHOTS Big E! Roman gets back in, brings Big E back up, GUILLOTINE! And with the body scissors! Big E somehow stays on his feet, and gets a second wind! Big E scoops Roman around for a BIG ENDING!! Cover, but ROPEBREAK! Roman saves himself and Big E can’t believe it. Big E fires up and fans declare, “This is Awesome!” Big E goes back to Roman but Roman flops off the apron.

Winner: Roman Reigns, by pinfall (Raw: 5; SmackDown: 2)

The Tribal Chief finds a way to win, and proves he is the supreme champion in the WWE! Will he continue to be the one on top of the mountain all the way through the holidays? As for Big E, will this loss to Roman cause a ripple affect for his reign on Raw?


My Thoughts:

A pretty good Survivor Series, but look at that. Another heavily Raw biased booking from Vince. Priest VS Nakamura was a good kickoff match but Nakamura didn’t even really win that because they wanted to push “The Damian inside” for Priest. I wish WWE knew what the hell they were doing with the King of Strong Style. Maybe the build to #WWEDay1 makes Nakamura and the Intercontinental Championship look good. Also they changed to logo for Day 1 so… Okay. Still would’ve rather had TLC. The Women’s Champions opening was a surprise, but what an awesome match! We may not have wanted a title swap, but we got a match that made it all pay off. Becky winning with ropes was a bit of a surprise but I suppose this was one way to keep things alive between the two.

I really thought the Battle Royal would be before the 5v5 matches, and I was wishing that the pizza boxes were closer to ringside so someone could be thrown out onto the pizza. At the same time, that’d be a waste of pizza and then the Profits wouldn’t get to be pizza Robin Hoods, throwing them out to random fans. Battle royals are definitely the perfect match for Omos because he’s so big. Then in the Tag Champions match, I did not expect RKBRO to win. I thought the Bloodline would’ve held it down for SmackDown, but I guess this goes with the Raw bias. At the same time, fans love RKBRO, I’m sure this win was to acknowledge that.

The Men’s 5v5 being first was another surprise, but it was a great match. Kevin walking out was an awesome Heel move, they cleverly gave us a double slingblade spot from Rollins and Balor, and Rollins being Sole Survivor is huge. I think that will feed a lot of momentum into his title match with Big E. Meanwhile, the Women’s 5v5 felt like a mess, and I’m pretty sure fans were either doing the wave or Beach Ball Mania off camera during the middle of it. It was too much story of the Sasha Shotzi dysfunction that wasn’t even consistent. At least copy the “misunderstanding” Sheamus had with Hardy for Shotzi and Sasha. Anything else was forced and awkward, especially considering Bianca makes a huge comeback to win as a sole survivor.

I know Red Notice is a hit with The Rock, Ryan Reynolds and Gal Gadot in it, but did it have to be integrated into the show? Of course, I’m remembering back to Batista’s move with the zombies influencing a match during ThunderDome Era so I guess this is just going to be a thing every time WWE can line up a PPV with one of their stars’ big movies. Makes me wonder what we’ll get when Black Adam debuts. That said, using that gold egg as a plot point is weird, and literally a Vince idea with Vince being involved in the promos. Couldn’t they just have used it for a Gobbledy Gooker gag?

Lesnar’s “suspension” being “lifted” is clearly an indicator that we’re on the build to the Royal Rumble where Lesnar will go after Roman. Roman VS Big E was awesome stuff, though the pacing was a bit slugging at a point. Roman winning cleanly was the biggest surprise of this, but I suppose it is better that we didn’t get something overbooked with the Usos and Woods and whoever else getting involved. Roman still wins, as expected, and he’ll definitely address Lesnar no longer being suspended on SmackDown while Rollins rubs in his win and Big E’s loss in on Raw.

My Score: 8.6/10

Andrew’s TNA iMPACT! Results & Match Ratings: 3.5.2026

Two title matches tonight! Do they amount to anything?

Published

on

Coming off the worst show in a few months, but still tolerable, we get a Live show today. Now we know that most TNA shows have audio run by a high school AV club, so there is bound to be muted audio, dumb stuff and mics that aren’t on. So we can only hope the show is good regardless of audio.

I don’t really love two perceivably useless title matches though. Jody Threat is not a threat to anything beyond catering. She’s trash and has no shot against Arianna even if there wasn’t going to be cheating. Plus Nic already has the trophy for a World title shot, so giving him the X Division makes no sense.

Lets see where this goes.

Ratings:

  • TNA Knockouts World Championship: Jody Threat vs Arianna Grace (c) w/Stacks: Arianna retains via Roll-Up – *
  • The System vs The Righteous vs Sinner & Saint vs BDE & Rich Swann: Bear wins via Fire/Thunder Driver – ***
  • Elayna Black vs Mara Sade: Elayna wins via Knuckles – ** 1/2
  • TNA X Division Championship: Nic Nemeth w/Ryan vs Leon Slater (c): Leon retains via Swanton 450 – *** 1/4

 

Results:

TNA Knockouts World Championship: Jody Threat vs Arianna Grace (c) w/Stacks

Tessa’s music hits right after Arianna’s and it blended gorgeously. Tessa’s crew looks amazing especially Tessa. So I’m…not upset. 

Arianna attacks Jody as soon as the bell rings, Jody does turn it around into Short Arm Lariats in the corner and an Exploder Suplex. But then Dani Luna walks out through the crowd to watch. I do like that the muddied Knockouts title picture is being put on display. Indi Hartwell walks out too. Arianna lays in some trips and knees after Jody gets distracted. Twisting Neckbreaker from Arianna and we see Lei and Xia on the ramp too. The whole Knockouts Division are circling like sharks…it’s cool and all the Knockouts look great.

Jody fires but the crowd doesn’t really care. They aren’t reacting to her, just kinda amusing themselves. Double Knees, Release German into a Michinoku Driver for two. Stacks pulls out Arianna allowing Jody a Dive spot to wipe out Stacks. Arianna and Jody tug of war over the Cobra, Arianna wins the tug of war, kicks Jody in the ribs and Roll-Up retains!

The match was useless because Jody sucks and isn’t a real threat. So it was fine to give Arianna a title defense, but there was no way Jody was winning and this still made her look bad. 

The Elegantos walk out, Mr. E is wearing Daisy Dukes. Literally, not figuratively. The only way this dude will be salvageable is if he ends up being Kurt Angle in the ring. They start insulting Mama June who’s in the audience, and they say she should be at a Food Truck. So ODB shows up. The Elegantos continue to talk shit, ODB takes them out, kicks Mr. E in the nards and her with the Mama June cast dump Chilli all over the Elegantos. A dumb stop, but ODB is a TNA Legend and I think she was talking about retiring this year. So it’s always nice to see One Dirty Bitch. 

The System vs The Righteous vs Sinner & Saint vs BDE & Rich Swann

BDE starts with one of the loser jabronis, they tag the other in, Rewind Suplex into a tandem Dropkick, but then Rich tags in Bear Bronson takes a Blind Tag, wipes out Rich and BDE, Jabronis do a stupid assisted Dive spot but BDE and Swann get their spot in and then Dutch does his big boy Tope con Hilo. The crowd likes it but I don’t care about the car crash spot.

Dutch and Righteous have some tandem offense, but Bear with another blind tag, Choke Bomb from Bear on Vincent for two. A few more stomps before tagging to Myers and then Vincent starts to fight up but Myers cuts him off. Bear tags back in, tandem Suplex gets reversed into a Double Neckbreaker and the match breaks down a little. Jabronis get laid out by Swanny, Frankensteinering one into the other for two. Nerds double team Swann, but they suck so Rich eventually rolls out of it, BDE tags in, his Oscutter gets caught and simultaneous Lariats for the random tag spot. Vincent tags in, but BDE Small Package gets two. Dutch and Vincent with an Assisted Cutter and everyone else breaks up the pinfall.

Vincent with a DDT/Flatliner combo after the mayhem, Roster Cut and Spear from Myers, Bear with a Fire/Thunder Driver for the win!

Decent enough, the right team won anyway. Jabronis are trash, BDE & Swann are too new and Righteous is in a weird spot while we just saw them get a shot. 

Moose and Alisha come out to address things. Moose says The System ain’t family, and shouts out his former Falcons teammates in attendance like John Abraham. Moose is bringing decent intensity, he’s just tripping over a lot of his punchlines. 

Elayna Black vs Mara Sade

Collar and elbow tie up, running each other into ropes before Elayna tries to take advantage of the break, Mara turns it around but then Elayna finds a spot to hit her own chop. They’re both throwing a lot of personality and countering the others stuff. It’s basic but not offensive. Elayna dodges a Plancha, but Mara catches herself which is clever, but then Elayna trips her on the apron and she crashes down. So both are showing clever spots. Chop into a Rope Bounce Stomp for a near fall.

Elayna connects with a Fun Splash into the ropes, then kicks Mara in the face multiple times before goading the crowd and peppering in Elbows before a near fall. Elayna gets a Bow and Arrow locked in, with Mara fighting through it. Mara throws a few punches into Lariats, and a Slingblade. Mara is  on a roll, Springboard Crossbody from Mara for two. Mara wanted a Double Arm DDT, but it’s blocked, Mara ole’s Elayna’s charge, Dropkicks her to the outside and throws her back in after the Plancha. Missile Dropkick for good measure and Mara is in full control.

Elayna finds an avenue to stop Mara’s offense with a DDT. She powders and grabs a chair. During the referee taking the chair, she uses the knuckles she had hidden, lays out Mara and wins the match.

Honestly okay match, and the BS finish means there’s a chance to get more out of it. They seem to work well together.

Audio issues continue to plague this show and TNA Live events in general. Kaz and Elijah is an okay King’s Speech segment. Elijah does like these mid promo cutaways, which is funny yet hampered because of audio issues. Devolves into Kaz basically just title mogging him, then AJ Francis chucks Home Town Man off the stage into the audience level and Elijah goes to check on him in typical babyface fashion. 

TNA X Division Championship: Nic Nemeth w/Ryan vs Leon Slater (c)

Nic with a quick Head and Arm cradle for a near fall and a few quick amateur wrestling spots. Leon tries to fight back, the wrist tape to the face shortcut from Nic, before Leon Dropkicks Nic out of the ring, Dives, rolls Nic back in and Ryan trips up Leon on the way back in so Nic hits the FAMEasser for a near fall. Nic follows up with the Boot Lace Rake and moving into deliberate pacing with shortcuts, thumb to the eye, measure Leon as he stumbles for a Dropkick and another near fall before the commercial kicks in.

Coming back from commercial Leon counters the Irish Whip straight into the turnbuckle and Nic goes crashing. Leon runs the ropes, takes Nic’s Head off, Spiderman Rebound Leg Lariat for a nearfall. Leon goes to the top, Nic hits the ropes to crash Leon and big Implant DDT for a two count. Leon slow to get up, Danger Zone almost, Lethal Injection counter, almost, Nic runs into Leon and Leon catches him with the Blue Thunder Bomb for a two count.

Leon heads back to the buckles, 450 nope, Superkick nope, Rewind Mule nope, FAMEasser, but Leon grabs him, hangs him and Styles Clash. Leon goes to the top, 450 but eats the knees! Nemeth locks in the Rear Naked Choke. Leon turns it into a near fall so Nic has to break it for a second, he tries to reapply but Leon drops back to break the hold. Leon fires up, kicks off Ryan, charges and eats a Superkick! Only a two count though. Nic shoves Leon into the corner, perches him. Wants the Superplex, but Leon counters with an Avalanche Final Cut.

Swanton 450, and Leon retains.

Eric Young attacks Leon after the match, Piledrivers him on the outside and then poses with the title before what is probably the last commercial break of the night since Mike Santana needs to talk.

Santana wants Maclin reinstated, sexy SUIT heel shows up and says “Fuck you, but its a good idea”. So she agrees to reinstate Maclin and then Santino makes the match for Sacrifice. Santana is happy but says it’s on sight, and commentary is flabbergasted because they gave Maclin what he wanted. 

 

Overall Score: 5.5/10

While the title matches had no suspension of disbelief, all the correct people went over. The tag team 4 way was haptic but solid with the correct winner. I don’t like Leon but beating Nic is correct. The Elegantos were a decent joke spot for the Legend + crowd interaction moment. Elijah with a new cutaway interview gimmick could be great if mic’d correctly. Lish cheerleading Moose in some cuckhold ass beating angle is hilariously embarassing for the time we live in. But I would still prefer that over Lish doing the obvious thing by turning on Moose when it gets to Eddie’s turn to get his ass beat.

Lastly, Maclin proves that complaining gets you everything. So hooray for negative reinforcement!

Still an okay show honestly. Decent matches, nothing really dragged the pace down.

Backstage interview with Adam Priest & Tommy Billington.

Lexy Nair is with the Modern British Bulldogs, and she brings up their success as a tag team, as well as their recent success in singles matches. Adam apologizes for interrupting but he wants to talk about that. They have dominated in tag matches and singles matches, but Tommy had Jay Lethal squirming and ready to tap. But of course, The Swirl comes out to screw Tommy over. And they will handle that business, but tonight, they’re back in tag action against The Workhorsemen. And the thing is, those guys taught Adam everything he knows, yet they come up short against Adam Priest. Now, he’s pretty sure Tommy has words for Jay Lethal.

Tommy says that’s right. He tells Lethal that Lethal might think they have unfinished business, but no, they don’t. Tommy treated Lethal like a brother, Lethal was a mentor to him, watched his back when no one else did. But the thing is, once Tommy & Adam are down with the Workhorsemen, they go after Lethal. Either it’s Tommy or Adam, but they will end this with Lethal! So watch your back! Adam thanks Lexy and the Bulldogs head out. Will they make  JD Drake & Anthony Henry an example of this fury that lies within?

Then arm-drags, and arm-drags, and scoop SLAMS! Tommy hurries up top to MISSILE DROPKICK!

The fans cheer, Tommy covers, but Drake distracts! Tommy gets upset by that but he brings Henry up to bump off buckles. Tag to Adam and they DOUBLE- NO, Drake saves Henry! Only for Tommy & Adam to SHOVE Drake into Henry! Henry tumbles out, but then Drake TOSSES Adam! Henry KICKS Adam down, but Tommy DROPKICKS Drake out! The fans rally as the Workhorsemen regroup, and Tommy builds speed! Tommy DIVES, but Drake catches him! “Now you’re dead!” Drake pops Tommy up against ropes to then CLOBBER him! Henry reels Tommy in, SNAP PILEDRIVER on the floor!

The fans rally for Adam but Drake drags him up. Adam fires body shots and a CHOP, but Drake ENZIGIRIS! Cover, TWO! Adam survives but Drake drags him up. Tag to Henry and the Workhorsemen mug Adam again. Henry brings Adam around, fishhooks his nose, but he stops as the ref counts. Henry scuffs and kicks Adam around but the fans rally up. Henry stomps Adam’s hand, reels him in, and calls his shot! But Adam fights the lift! Adam BACKDROPS free! But Tommy’s still down, Adam can’t tag out! Drake tags in, but Adam ELBOWS Henry away. Adam dodges Henry but Drake ROCKS him! Henry hits the GUT WRENCH DRIVER!

Drake BLINDSIDE WIZARDS Adam, then covers, TWO! Adam survives and the fans rally up. Drake grows frustrated and he CHOKES Adam! The ref counts, Drake stops at 4, then he rains down forearms! Drake CHOPS Adam while he’s down, then HAMMERS away! Drake says Adam wouldn’t be anything without the Workhorsemen! But Adam SLAPS Drake! Drake snarls and BUZZSAWS Adam down! Drake shoves Adam down to SENTON! Tag to Henry and he sits Adam up to KICK! Henry stomps away on Adam, then stops to bring him back to the Workhorsemen corner. Tag to Drake, he stands Adam up, and CHOPS!

Adam CHOPS, Drake HEADBUTTS away on Adam! Tag to Henry and they mug Adam again. But Adam ROCKS and CHOPS them on repeat! Adam fires a flurry on Henry, but Drake keeps Adam away! Adam still reaches out, hot tag to Tommy! Henry BOOTS Tommy first, then runs up to KNEE Adam! Feed to Drake for the- NO, Tommy DROPKICKS Henry away! No Nine to Five here! Drake runs up on Tommy, whips him to ropes, but Tommy grabs ropes! Tommy then dodges Drake to send him outside! Adam TORNADO DDTS on the floor! Tommy DIVES onto Henry!

Winners: Adam Priest & Tommy Billington, by pinfall

The Bulldogs pull victory from the jaws of defeat! They keep on winning as a team, but will they be able to bring down The Swirl and the Franchise Player?

 

Athena is backstage.

The Fallen Goddess smiles as Billie Starkz is up to something just around the corner, but then she spots the cameraman. “Oh, snap! Come here! Let’s go!” Athena pulls the cameraman into the room, and Billie has finished beating up Deonna Purrazzo! Athena tells Maya World that well, her petty is stronger than 50 Cent. She doesn’t take losses lightly. And not only did Maya “betray” Athena, but she threw her hat in with this hussy instead of her “Minion Mother” and “Minion Sisters.” This is a lesson: You mess with Athena, you embarrass her, and she claps back twice as hard! But sweet, sweet Pure Champion Deonna, your time is coming to an end!

Because Billie is not gonna disappoint Athena again. She will make history again as she becomes the first woman to have held ROH Women’s TV AND ROH Women’s Pure Championship. And this isn’t personal, but just know this is Athena’s show, and Deonna is a side character. Athena & Billie leave Deonna down and out, but will they reign over ROH no matter what it takes? Or will they regret talking down to Maya and the Virtuosa?

 

La Faccion Ingobernable speaks.

Sammy Guevara hushes everyone before he says, “Everybody’s Favorite Pillar is about to talk. Sammy Guevara & Beast Mortos have been an el fuego, baby! And that means ‘fire’ in Spanish. We have been undefeated as a tag team. Personally, I believe we are one of the greatest tag teams to walk the face of this earth. Me personally, I’m on my THIRD consecutive reign as ROH Tag Team Champion, without ever losing it! Back-to-back-to-back, never before seen in professional wrestling! But now Tony Khan, he told us we are forced, contractually obligated, to go and defend these titles.

“So here’s an open challenge! To any former world champions, former world tag team champions! Whether it’s this week, next week, the week after, it doesn’t matter, because the result is always gonna be the same. And after we kick your ass, don’t try to sue us, because this man is a shoot lawyer! So if you need a lawyer, call 1-800…” Mortos adds, “ROOOAR~! See you in court, hahaha!” Sammy says step up, or get stepped on! LFI is infinitely confident, but will they still be tranquilo once someone answers the call?

The fans rally, Fox aims, and he TOP ROPE IMPLODER SENTONS! The fans are fired up as Fox knocks down both Shane and Lee! Fox drags Shane up and into the ring, covers, TWO!

The fans rally and duel as Okada stalks Fox, and Okada drags Fox up. Fox fires body shots again, but Okada KNEES low! Then DDTS again! Cover, TWO! Fox survives and the fans rally up. Okada grins, he’s amused as Fox toughs it out. Okada kicks Fox around, eggs him on, but Fox fires a forearm! And another! Okada eggs Fox on more, then ROCKS him! Fox staggers away, but he BOOTS from the ropes! Okada comes back but Fox puts him through the ropes! DRAPING DDT! The fans fire up for Fox as he and Okada rise up again. Fox then LARIATS! And LARIATS! Fox goes Matrix again for an ENZIGIRI!

The fans rally and Fox runs in, BIG BACK ELBOW! Then a snapmare, roll, and CUTTER! Cover, TWO! Okada survives the onslaught then goes to the corner. Fox runs in again, but into a BOOT! Fox still comes back, but Okada pops Fox up! Tuck and REVERSE NECKBREAKER! Okada drags Fox up again, scoops him and SLAMS him, then goes to the corner. Standard formula for Okada as he hits the MACHO ELBOW! Okada then winds it up, and gives us the Rainmaker MIDDLE FINGER! The fans boo but Fox snatches Okada to a victory roll! TWO! Okada swings, Fox ducks it and slips around, backslide! TWO!

Fox dodges Okada to BOOT him down! Fox keeps going, and he goes right up top! 450 SPLASH!! Cover, TWO!! Okada survives and Fox is shocked! The fans rally as Fox gets Okada up and puts him up top! Fox then runs to go up, up, and ARABIAN- NO, Okada stops that to GERMAN SUPLEX! Just like Lee! But Okada holds on, ripcords, and RAIN- NO, Fox ducks! But Okada spins Fox, but Fox goes Matrix! But Okada DROPKICKS Fox! Then ripcord and RAINMAKER!! Cover, Okada wins!

Winner: Kazuchika Okada, by pinfall (still AEW International Champion)

Okada indeed made it rain, washing away Fox’s dream of holding gold. But will Okada have this same luck when he faces someone at 100%? Or will nothing stop the Don Callis Family from running both AEW and ROH?


My Thoughts:

A great ROH here to begin their new studio show era. The crowd wasn’t the biggest, but I feel like ROH didn’t advertise very well. That is to say, AEW didn’t help ROH advertise this change, no one officially announced it, it just happened. Just another reason TK needs people helping him with everything. Also, can they not do a FULL two hours? We need to keep it at 90 minutes max, but more preferably an hour on average. Two hours should be reserved for “special episodes,” which this did fall under.

Anyway, very good matches all over, great showings for everyone. Perse of course beat Leon, and that CMLL Women’s World Championship match with Mercedes Mone will be great, but I can’t be sure of Perse’s chances. Sidney Akeem continues to do creative, innovative things in the ring, he and CLØN need to have a match just to break the minds of everyone watching. The ROH Tag Division is clearly growing stronger, even if it is maybe quantity over quality. Top Flight gets a great win off GYV, and their interaction with “Paid In Full” clearly teases a match there. Bill & Keith of course won, but I’m not even sure that new name makes sense.

Very good promo from Adam & Tommy to call out “The Lethal Twist,” and they got a very good match and very good win over The Workhorsemen. Good to see Juice Robinson is cleared for action, he and Austin Gunn got a good win off MXM. Very good showing for Zayda against Mina but Zayda has now lost to both Love Bombs. The promo from Good stuff from Lacey VS Robyn, with a very good win for Lacey. I forget all of who have lost Proving Grounds to Red Velvet but I wouldn’t mind seeing Lacey battle Red Velvet real quick.

Athena, Billie and Deonna was good, and it’s about time they officially declared Deonna VS Billie. Athena calling out Maya World again is good, but given they’re doing a Proving Ground first, I feel like they could give Maya that win, and then she ultimately loses in the title match. Athena hasn’t lost any singles match, even a Proving Ground match, in the entire three years she’s been champion, so at least give Maya that achievement.

And great stuff with the “double main event.” I’m still not much for “Four Corners” where you tag in and stuff, just give us a flat out Fatal 4 Way where everyone’s active at once. It turned into that before Menard was eliminated anyway. But Fox winning out was great, he’s been needing wins beyond the “money prize” matches. Okada being the “random” champion was awesome, definitely unexpected. But of course Okada won, Fox went through a very tough match just before that, and also he’s Okada. Fox needs to feud with Nick Wayne now that Nick is back, and Fox should take the TV title off him. Nick had that title the entire time he was injured, TK didn’t bother making an interim title for it like he did the women’s title, so time to get a new champ.

My Score: 8.8/10
