Fans boo, Grimes staggers around blindly, and Hudson reels him in to crucifix and RAZOR- NO! Grimes RANAS out and sends Hudson into Plexiglas! Fans fire up for “NXT!

Backstage interview with Cora Jade.
The winner at WarGames still has unfinished business with Dakota Kai. Cora is excited to be medically cleared, but then Dakota walks in and says, “This is what she does. She’s done it before with me and she’s doing it to you now.” Dakota claims Raquel is latching on to Cora to stay relevant. Cora does the work, Raquel gets the glory. Maybe they’ll become a tag team and win the Dusty Cup! Cora says, “Thanks, mom, but I don’t need the advice.” Cora says after tonight, she’ll be one step closer to facing Mandy Rose for the title. M-Mom?! Dakota has a bit of a freak out, but will she be ready to take on the young and hungry #GenerationJade?
Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen get ready for the double date.
Brooks is ready! They’re going to a country concert and they have a fine ass truck. Where’re the girls? Kacy & Kayden roll up in an even better truck! The four go to the country music fest, do some square dancing in the field, and even some slow dancing for a minute. The boys are speechless, will there be a second date in their future?
Grayson Waller goes to the ring.
Fans boo the 21st Century Success Story, they definitely did not like what he did last week. Fans still call him an A-Hole for that attack on Johnny Wrestling. Waller gets a mic and says, “I love it. I love it! A wise man once said, ‘You can never fail if you bet on yourself.’ What a beautiful speech. I nearly had a tear in my eye last week. But that wise man overstayed his welcome!” Gargano wants to talk about his wife and his future, and he for whatever reason thanked all the fans! Like the fans have done anything for anyone! Last week, Waller, by himself, did what he said he was gonna do! He had all the views! He was trending all over! But that’s what happens when you bet on yourself.
Waller decides he’ll shut up after all, because he wants to watch the footage. Waller’s Instagram video had him rubbing his own attack in everyone’s face. Waller gets chills watching it back. Oh, no one else liked that? Well let’s be realistic. Last week, Waller cemented himself as THE NXT superstar! He went from jumping off the cage to winning WarGames to ending the career of a legend! Then Waller partied with the biggest celebrities in the world! What’d fans do for the weekend? Complained about someone more successful than them! But Waller is a good guy, he’ll give the fans some clout! He shows off all sorts of tweets. Even Wade Barrett called Waller a POS.
But here’s some bad news, Barrett! This ain’t 2010! He could care less what Barrett thinks. And Vic Joseph… Fans chant for them to “Kick His Ass!” but Waller says he did that to Vic’s best friend, in front of him, and Vic didn’t do a single thing! Remember that. It shows what kind of man you are, Vic. Waller says he doesn’t need friends, family or fans! “The only thing that I need to go to the top of this industry is Grayson Waller.” Waller drops the mic and swaggers his way out.
Malcolm Bivens speaks.
“Diamond Mine is all about the big money matches. And it doesn’t get much bigger than you, Bron Breakker. Yeah, I know you are the breakout superstar, but you are not the workhorse of NXT, and you certainly not THE champion of NXT. That distinction belongs to Roderick Strong. And I cannot wait for him to put you in your place.” Strong adds on that Diamond Mine will divide and conquer. Ivy Nile will handle her business, the Creed Brothers will handle their business, and Strong will handle Bron all by himself. Is Nile ready? Hell yeah! She’s gonna bust some skulls! Even her fist bump is strong! Will Diamond Mine’s personal titan steamroll another superstar?
NXT presents an all new Lashing Out.
Lash Legend welcomes us back, and she doesn’t have just one but TWO special guests tonight! It’s Jacket Time, Kushida & Ikemen Jiro! But then there’s also a random sighting of snoozy Karen Q. Anyway, Jiro & Kushida are big fans of Lash, so they’re happy to be here. She says they’re always dressed to impress. But what is the secret? #STYLESTRONG! Oh, she likes the sound of that. She’s got some Style Strong, too! But what we really want to know is what’s going on with them and Grizzled Young Veterans. Very sensitive operation. GYV attacked them first, but Jacket Time is not to be taken lightly.
Kushida calls out GYV in Japanese, “Just like Grayson Waller, you have NO respect for the ring!” Jiro agrees, and also says in Japanese, “We are the ultimate team! We always have smiles on our faces! Tonight, we will wipe the floor with yours!” Lash is shocked by such fire, but doesn’t really understand what they said. It’s jacket time! Okay! Well that’s all the time they have. Kushida & Jiro, they are Lash’s heroes, but will they take the fight to Zack Gibson & James Drake? Or will GYV find another cheeky way to cheat and win?
Ivy Nile w/ Malcolm Bivens VS Amari Miller!
Diamond Mine has forged Ivy Nile into a solid steel weapon, is she about to break the spirit of St. Louis?
The bell rings and fans sing, “Ivy’s gonna kill~ you!” Ivy headlocks, hits a takeover and grinds Amari down. Amari headscissors, pushes up, thrashes Ivy around, but Ivy endures to move around and headstand out! Fans cheer that and Bivens is very happy to see it. They tie up, Ivy waistlocks and throws Amari down to then facelock. Amari slips out and fans cheer the exchange again. They tie up, Ivy trips Amari but Amari slips away again. They tie up, Amari wrenches but Ivy blocks the whip. Amari steps over but Ivy slips out to springboard and DECK Amari! Ivy bumps Amari off buckles, hops up the corner and has a necklock! Ivy uses Amari as a weight for her triceps workout!
The ref counts, Ivy lets Amari down and CLOBBERS her! Ivy does push-ups on Amari’s back, she lets off as the ref counts 4. Ivy stalks Amari, drags her up and snap suplexes! Fans fire up as Ivy scoops but Amari slips out. Amari rolls up, TWO but Amari gets a ghost pin! TWO, roll to a sunset flip! TWO, and Ivy headbutts low! Ivy rushes in but Amari turns it to a backslide! Ivy rolls off, Amari CLUBS her back! And CHOPS her low! Amari throws forearms, HEEL KICKS then snapmares too mule kick Ivy down! Fans rally up, Amari basement dropkicks Ivy down! Cover, ONE!! Amari fires up, but Ivy ducks the heel kick and comes back to SPINEBUSTER!
Ivy gets to a corner, runs back out and dropkicks Amari down! Ivy then O’Conner Rolls, rolls through to the DRAGON SLEEPER! Amari taps, Ivy wins!!
Winner: Ivy Nile, by submission
Ivy crushes another opponent! Will this Diamond Mine product soon strike gold?
Backstage interview with Xyon Quinn.
A tough loss to Santos Escobar, but what does he think Elektra Lopez was pulling last week? It all worked in Escobar’s favor, so it doesn’t really matter what her intentions were. Quinn tells Lopez that now that he knows the rules of the game, game on. Robert Stone is also taking notes. He won’t let this go back to Vic and Wade, though! He is sick of the disrespect from everyone in NXT! “Moving forward, Robert Stone is going to be taken serious!” Von Wagner barges in and says last week was just the first body to break. This week, it continues! He’ll smash and beat whoever into the ground. Why? Because he can! If you have a problem with that, say it to his face. Stone stays quiet.
Joe Gacy talks with Harland.
“You have waited so long for this. This is your time. Don’t be afraid to be who you are.” Does that mean what it sounds like? Who will be Harland’s first victim in the ring?
Shaman Riddle speaks with MSK.
He knows they’ve come a long way in their journey, but Shaman Bro needs to know what else is in the bag. Scissors, glasses, batteries, and one ear bud? Is that all? Dig deeper. Riddle goes ALL the way in, and brings out a baseball bat! Wow, where’d they get that? And then… A safety cone! Bro! And Nash Carter’s favorite, the Thuganomics spinner belt from when John Cena was US Champion! But all this stuff, that’s just clutter in their lives. If they want to be tag team champions again, they gotta focus on one thing and one thing only: regaining those titles. Well, how do they clear their minds and learn to let go? Just give Riddle one second. Riddle reaches back in and…
He brings out a scooter!? How’d that get in there? To find what you’re really looking for, bros, you gotta dig deep. Like, really deep. Carter and Lee bring out a scooter for each of them, and these stallions ride! Will the Way of the Bro lead MSK back to the NXT Tag Team Championships?
Harland w/ Joe Gacy VS Guru Raaj!
It’s hard to be sure what to make of Harland with that same stoic stony expression. The bell rings, he circles with Raaj, they tie up and Harland SLAMS Raaj down! And then dribbles him off the mat! And then digs Raaj’s face into the mat while grinding his forearm into Raaj’s head! Harland lets off to drag Raaj up. Raaj throws body shots, but Harland KNEES low, CLUBS then back suplex POWERSLAMS! Cover, Harland wins!
Winner: Harland, by pinfall
A fast win that probably would’ve been even faster if Harland didn’t toy with Raaj. Gacy asks if Harland feels better. Harland shakes his head, so Gacy tells him to be happy. Harland dribbles Raaj off the mat again! Refs and security rush out to stop this, but only Gacy gets Harland to spare Raaj. Gacy leads the way out, will he and Harland lead a path of destruction through NXT?
LA Knight arrives.
He’s had his own issues with Waller, but he isn’t going to have NXT Media ask about him. He’s gonna talk to ya! “Talking about the guy who did one halfway cool move at WarGames, with help, and all of a sudden, he thinks he’s special.” Then he gets all butthurt just cuz some fine chickadee was feeling the vibe of one LA Knight, YEAH. So what does he do? He throws a hissy fit like the incel he is! So someone go find Waller, tell him to go find Knight if Knight doesn’t find his ass first, YEAH!
NXT watches security ushering Harland and Gacy out.
They don’t want “the freak” causing any more problems. But that word triggers Harland and he TOSSES THE Brian Kendrick down the stairs!! OH NO! BRIAN! Is he okay?! Will Harland and Gacy suffer the consequences for this?
Cora Jade VS Dakota Kai!
Mandy Rose is waiting for Cora as she makes her entrance, and joins commentary to keep a close eye on her. Will Cora be able to focus on #CobraKai with the NXT Women’s Champion nearby?
NXT returns as Dakota makes her entrance. The bell rings, the two rush each other and Dakota BOOTS Cora down! Dakota clubs away on Cora, whips her to a corner but Cora goes up and over and uppercuts back! Fans fire up as Cora whips Dakota, but Dakota reverses. Cora wrenches and whips to then follow and tilt-o-whirl headscissor Dakota down! Cora dropkicks Dakota down, then gets around to backslide! TWO, Cora kicks Dakota down! Cover, TWO! Fans rally and duel as Cora goes to a corner. Cora climbs up slowly, Dakota BOOTS her down! Dakota then climbs up, but Cora bumps Dakota off buckles!
Cora drags Dakota up but Dakota YANKS Cora into the crossbars! Cora clutches the bad arm, and she hops down off the apron. Dakota smirks as she aims from the other side, and she PENALTY KICKS Cora! Mandy sarcastically cringes seeing that, and Dakota covers, TWO! Dakota clamps onto Cora’s arm and forces it into the top wristlock! Cora endures, fans rally up, but Dakota throws Cora down! Cover, TWO! Dakota CLUBS Cora on the bad arm, steps over and JAMS the arm! Mandy says Cora doesn’t have nearly enough experience to measure up to her. Dakota clamps onto the arm, grinds it down, but Cora fights. Dakota turns Cora over to PULL the arm!

Cora shoves Dakota down, then climbs up and missile dropkicks! Cover, TWO!
Cora drags Dakota up but Dakota SCORPION KICKS, and then hits a BACKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Dakota is losing her cool as Cora is proving her toughness! Dakota runs corner to corner, and BOOTS Cora down! Then side to side, BOOT WASH! Cover, TWO!! Cora is still in this and Dakota is beside herself. Dakota catches Cora for a TWISTING DDT! Cover, TWO! Mandy is not impressed, but that could just be her arrogance. Dakota goes out, looks under the ring, and brings out THE SHOVEL! She’s gonna bury Cora! The ref stops that, then Cora rolls Dakota up! Cora wins!!
Winner: Cora Jade, by pinfall
Mandy says Cora keeps getting lucky, but then Dakota BOOTS Cora down! Dakota gets her shovel back, but here comes Raquel! Raquel dodges and BOOTS Dakota! Dakota bails out but Raquel chases after to club away on Dakota! They go out the back, but here comes the rest of Toxic Attraction! Gigi Dolin & Jacy Jayne strut out to the ring as Mandy says this is what real women look like. But it’s MANDY who attacks first, and with her belt! She may look like a real woman, but she plays things like a real snake as she hits an ARMBAR DDT on Cora’s bad shoulder! Cora writhes in pain, but is this all a sign that Toxic Attraction fears #GenerationJade?
Waller brags backstage.
He looked good out there, didn’t he? He checks his phone, and then Tiffany Stratton walks up to say, “My daddy says you’re a terrible person.” Io Shirai insults Waller in Japanese! He takes a seat to listen to her vent. “I guess she likes me.” Waller is a bit delusional, but will Knight find him and slap some sense into him?
Raquel Gonzalez is going after Dakota Kai in the parking lot!
Refs and security do what they can to keep Raquel and her kendo stick from hitting Dakota! Dakota throws a chair, even! What will it take to put the past in the past for these two?
Tony D’Angelo VS Andre Chase!
NXT’s resident Wise Guy shows off the mouthpiece he took from Pete Dunne as he goes to the ring. Will he look to take something from Andre Chase to add to the collection? Or will this be a #TeachableMoment courtesy of Professor Chase?

Tony, learn something from Chase? Forgedaboutit! Tony knows how to win, and that’s what matters! Tony gets a mic to say, “In the words of my immortal paizon, Tony Bennett, Tony D’s got the world on a string.” And ever since he’s gotten here, he’s backed up everything he said he’d do! He took care of Chase, so he’s head of the class now. And he said he’d smack the tea ‘n’ crumpet goof, Pete Dunne, right in the mouth- Here comes Pete Dunne! The Bruiserweight has a mic, and he tells Tony that he’s done a lot of talking for a geezer with no track record. Dunne is gonna get in the ring, we’ll see if Tony holds that same energy face to face.
Tony says whoa! Dunne’s got quite the mouth on him. Dunne’s got a face only a mother would love. But he’s missing something, huh? Look over there. There’s the mouthpiece. Bet Dunne wants that back, right? Dunne wants to fight, huh? Well he isn’t here to talk! Tony says he has business, but next week they can figure it out. Until then, Tony’s gotta talk to a guy about some things. But he tries a sucker punch! Dunne gets the arm and BENDS The fingers! And SNAPS ’em! Tony bails out, and they both look to the corner! Dunne gets there first and Tony backs off. Dunne STOMPS the box open and has his mouthpiece!
Waller walks into the locker room.
Bron Breakker is getting warmed up. Waller wants to fist bump over WarGames. But Bron says Waller isn’t welcome here. The other guys agree. Alright, fine. Waller takes his things, but a real superstar has his own room anyway! Waller is trying to spin being ostracized, will he find it’s lonely at the top?

NXT Media catches up with Waller.
It seems no one likes him anymore, but he says that’s the “Grayson Waller Effect.” Wait, is he leaving with Tiffany Stratton in LA Knight’s car? What did Knight say last week about views? Knight’s gonna love this view! Waller pulls away, and Knight is down and out on the ground! What won’t Waller do to be the most infamous man in NXT?

Bron staggers, but he catches the knee for a POWERSLAM! Bron brings down the straps and fans bark! Bron gets Strong up, trophy lifts, and POWERSLAMS!! Cover, Bron wins!!
Winner: Bron Breakker, by pinfall
Bron just pinned a former NXT Tag Team, North American and current Cruiserweight Champion! Is this proof that Bron But then Ciampa shows up outta nowhere to get Bron in the ropes! WILLOW’S BELL! Ciampa says Bron won the battle at WarGames. The title is the war! “Welcome back to the deep end. Just remember, Bron. Sharks swim here.” Ciampa gives Bron a kiss goodnight, will Goldie be staying with daddy?
My Thoughts:
A great episode of NXT here, and Waller is definitely top Heel now. They even kayfabed that he has heat with the locker room! And while I was hoping we’d shift gears for a moment and have Ciampa or Lumis go after Waller, all the stories seem to be continuing as they are. Waller goes after Knight to jack his car and his date, so they’ll surely have a grudge match soon. Lumis is after Trick, and surely will go after Melo after that for a North American Championship match. And Melo is still focusing on Strong just because Bivens says Strong is THE champion in NXT. Strong puts Bron over for Ciampa to go after him to end the night, we’re definitely getting another NXT Championship match there.
I really liked that they opened with the No Holds Barred match. Grimes and Hudson had time to do all sorts of stuff, and I’m a little surprised Grimes won again. Grimes has completely swept Hudson, which seems a bit of a shame for the story, or at least for Hudson, but Grimes is a fan favorite so no one is complaining. We got some pretty quick matches to follow, though, with Nile crushing Amari and Harland mauling Raaj. What was great was Harland “injuring” THE Brian Kendrick, because they filmed it so perfectly. I almost want THE Brian Kendrick to have one more match against Harland to help show more of Harland’s in-ring skill.
Great stuff out of the tag division, with a fairly funny promo from Riddle and MSK and the classic “bottomless bag” trick. This is the kind of stuff I figured they’d do with Riddle and MSK, and I can’t wait to see what more we get. Briggs & Brooks had an okay concert date vignette with Kacy & Kayden, but NXT 2.0 needs to dial it back on the dating stuff. Let Briggs & Brooks be the good ol’ boys with their redneck lifestyles, then have them kick ass in the ring. Von Wagner’s fired up, too, I almost feel like he, Briggs & Brooks should be a trio because they’re all big, strong outdoorsy types. They can even take on El Legado all at once.
Speaking of, good promo from Quinn to say this is just the beginning with Legado. Jacket Time VS GYV was a good match, and I find it interesting that the Creed Brothers helped out Kushida & Jiro to stick it to Gibson & Drake. The NXT Tag Division is getting full but I don’t know about stacked like in the past. NXT 2.0 needs to take a week to give matches the same breathing room we used to see in 1.0. Kushida & Jiro VS GYV could have been even better if it was given more time. At the very least, there should be a big tag team match to determine contenders for Imperium while MSK is on their journey with Riddle. Maybe another of those Fatal 4 Ways like we got a month or so ago.
We got great story blending from the women’s division, with Cora getting a great win over Dakota Kai while Mandy was talking trash on commentary. I knew Mandy would be the one to attack while Gigi & Jacy distracted Cora, too. That is definitely a nod to Cora getting her title match for New Year’s Evil. As for Raquel and Dakota, their Street Fight next week is going to be wild stuff, can’t wait to see it.
My Score: 8.6/10

MJF arrives backstage.
Renee Paquette is there to bring up tonight’s main event is Darby Allin VS Konosuke Takeshita for the AEW World Championship. If Darby Allin wins, MJF will then have to sign a contract for Title VS Hair at Double or Nothing. Darby has made it clear that if MJF doesn’t sign said contract, Darby will never allow MJF to face him for the title again. We all know how important the title is for MJF, but is MJF willing to put his hair on the line for it? MJF just chuckles and moves on, but he notices the very bald Rick Knox, Bryce Remsburg, and the head of security, David Aponte. And then various bald members of the production staff…
And then even Christopher Daniels & Sonjay Dutt are there! Daniels and Sonjay chuckle before moving on, and then MJF sees John Silver flexing. Brandon Cutler, some arena staff, and even Tommaso Ciampa, all bald. Then last but certainly not least, Ricochet! He tells MJF that don’t worry, he’ll look great. Just not as good as Ricochet. AHA~! MJF storms off, will he have no choice but to choose between gold belt and chrome dome?
10 Man Tag: Orange Cassidy, Adam Copeland, Christian Cage & The Young Bucks VS Tommaso Ciampa, David Finlay, Clark Connors & FTR w/ Stokely Hathaway!
While we know the AEW World Tag Team Championship match will be a conglomeration of I Quit Match and New York Street Fight, THE Conglomeration will be waiting on the other side for their own tag title match. And let’s not forget that Matt & Nick Jackson want their own shot at those titles again. With that, can Freshly Squeezed work together with C&C and The Bucks?

Another star-studded 10 Man Tag, and it was a huge win for all the hungry contenders. Christian doesn’t wanna celebrate, but he does signal that he and Cope will be champions. Will putting their tag team legacy on the line be enough to take the gold? Or will Double or Nothing be the last night that team reeks of awesomeness?
Will Ospreay continues to train with The Death Riders.
They’re outside this time, Claudio Castagnoli playing some wall ball with Marina Shafir and Pac. Daniel Garcia says, “Tonight is the night that we’ve all been waiting for: The Aerial Assassin, Will Ospreay, is cleared and back on Dynamite. And rumor has it, the kid’s been working real hard and he’s got some new tricks up his sleeves. So Young Boy Billy, tonight you gotta show me something, c’mon.” Garcia gets a quick turn in on wall ball while cameras move over. Ospreay is maintaining a neck bridge while Jon Moxley uses Wheeler Yuta as a living dummy to show just how to push and pull and bend and twist on the various chinlocks and headlocks.
Use the right arm to push against the head, then snake in the left arm for the sleeper. Pry and shoot. Moxley asks how Ospreay feels. Ospreay lets off the bridge and says honestly, the best he’s felt in forever. Moxley asks if Ospreay remembers the night he won the Best of the Super Juniors. Yeah, 2019. AKA a lifetime ago. Ospreay was carefree, flew like a bird, for no other reason than that’s just what birds do. So simple back then, chasing that feeling, like no other feeling in the world. Can’t really grab it in your hands for more than a few seconds. The joy of doing it. Then everybody comes in and tries to make it so overcomplicated.
Years pass, life happens, a family starts, responsibilities show up, bad things happen, bad choices catch up to you, and it’s all weight on your shoulders. You feel like you can’t fly. But Moxley will tell you something: Nothing is different. Nothing has changed. All those things are still gonna be there, but you can still fly. You’re just more dangerous now. You’re a bird of prey. So tonight, when you got out there, don’t go out there to protect anything. Not your neck, your image, your reputation, or what you’ve built in your career. Go out there to give something. Moxley checks on Yuta and says dammit, if you’re gonna snap a headlock, snap the headlock!
Moxley storms off to instruct his pupil, but will Ospreay use everything he has been taught to great effect? Or will he have to fold against Ace Austin?
Chris Jericho speaks.
“You wanna face Jericho in a match of my own design, Ricochet? A spectacle so innovative, so imaginative, it cannot be contained, it can only be witnessed. Well, be careful what you demand, because you’ve made a few enemies yourself, Ricochet. And now a match designed specifically to settle scores without any, and I mean AAANY~, limitations has gotten even bigger.” Chris Jericho & The Hurt Syndicate were just looking for two more, but “Jungle” Jack Perry said he can bring four: himself, The Young Bucks, and KENNY OMEGA! Jericho tells Ricochet that this is no longer what he designed, but it is a devil’s dance of destruction! Ricochet’s destruction!
Ricochet got what he wanted, now can he handle it? Bald. The first-ever SEVEN VS SEVEN Stadium Stampede, who will even survive?
Ricochet & The Demand respond.
They stand with Mark Davis of the Don Callis Family and Ricochet says we all know Jericho does a lot of talking out of his ass while The Demand gets things done. Just like Davis did when he defeated Jack for the AEW National Championship at Fairway to Hell. Hold it with pride, Davis, Ricochet knows you’ll do it well. Davis says he’s got this. Ricochet says Davis has joined the dream team, but he’s not the only one. Because compliments to Ricochet’s golfing buddy, Don Callis, look who else he’s sending: Andrade El Idolo! Gracias, amigo. But it doesn’t stop there, the train keeps rolling. Ricochet was just approached by two guys who have an ax to grind with the superkick sidekicks.
These two wanna fill out the last two spots, so who is Ricochet to say no to The Dogs? Finlay & Connors storm in, and Finlay says to put it simple, they will fight The Bucks in the streets, in the ring, but guess it’s fighting at Double or Nothing! If they want violence, if they want carnage, if they want chaos, who better than The Dogs?! The Dogs bark and Liona roars, but will these seven stand tall in the Big Apple?
“Speedball” Mike Bailey w/ Kevin Knight VS BK Westbrook!
JetSpeed has a lot of momentum on their side, and as stated last week at Fairway to Hell, they’re looking to grab up all the gold they can. Will Speedball keep on rolling towards his own golden opportunity? Or will #Supastud prove his own worth?
The bell rings and the fans rally as the two step up. Bailey bows in respect, offers a handshake, but Westbrook goes to roll Bailey up! Bailey stays on his feet, then steps over to sit down on a cover, TWO! Westbrook ducks a Penalty Kick, avoids the moonsault, and the sweep! Bailey dodges, Westbrook tiger feints through the ropes, but Bailey handsprings up and over! The fans fire up as Bailey ducks an elbow to whip. Westbrook goes up, around, but kinda fumbles his tumble. The fans cheer and jeer him for his attempt, but Westbrook blocks the boot! Westbrook FLIPS Bailey, springboards in, but Bailey dodges! TIME ADVENTURE!
Bailey pushes Westbrook down, goes up the corner, and the fans fire up for the ULTIMATE WEAPON! Cover, Bailey wins!
Winner: Mike Bailey, by pinfall
Another fast ‘n’ furious finish, and Bailey’s on a hot streak! But now, the other side of JetSpeed looks to keep it up! But just who is Kevin Knight defending the TNT Championship against? It’s… BRIAN CAGE!? The Machine finally returns to action, and he has the Don Callis Family with him! Will Cage be able to ground Knight and take this title back to the family?
AEW TNT Championship Open Challenge: Kevin Knight w/ “Speedball” Mike Bailey VS Brian Cage w/ The Don Callis Family!

Cage THROWS Knight away!
Knight staggers, Cage SUPERKICKS him down! “Who betta than Cage?!” The fans fire up as Cage storms up on Knight, stands him up, and bumps him off buckles. Cage RAMS into Knight, stands him up, then RAMS again! The ref counts, Cage CHOPS, and the fans cheer. Bailey rallies the fans but Archer coaches Cage, and Cage whips Knight hard into the corner! The fans are torn as Cage hauls Knight up. Cage ROCKS Knight, CHOPS him, then CHOKES him on the ropes! The ref counts, Cage stops at 4, then Cage stalks Knight. Cage stands Knight up, whips him to the corner, then runs in, only for Knight to BOOT! Cage still LARIATS!
Cage hauls Knight up, whips him to ropes, but Knight grabs ropes. Knight DUMPS Cage out, then DROPKICKS him down! Cage sputters, the fans fire up, and Knight builds speed to DIVE! But he bounces off Cage! Cage then fireman’s carries, APRON F5! Knight sputters but Cage goes up the steps to soak up cheers and jeers, all while Dynamite goes picture in picture.

Knight powers up, fights his way forward, and he reaches to the ROPEBREAK!

But Cage ELBOWS Knight, whips, but Knight jumps up! SATELLITE- NO, Cage goes for ropes! Knight HOTSHOTS Cage for it! Then Knight springboards back in, MISSILE DROPKICK! The fans fire up while both men are down! A standing count starts while the fans rally up. Cage goes to a corner but he runs up on Knight.

Winner: Kevin Knight, by pinfall (still AEW TNT Champion)
The Machine was out for 14 months and yet no ring rust to be found! However, The Jet is just #2Fly2Stop! Bailey brings mics into the ring to say, “Congratulations to The Jet on a hell of a win!” Knight says much appreciated. But like he said, they’re red hot right now! And Brian Cage, welcome back! Cage took Knight to his limits, but The Jet is still standing as TNT Champion. But Knight can’t get over how last week, he couldn’t get the job done becoming #Jet2Belts. Bailey says forget last week. Knight IS a future AEW World Champion! Bailey says he knows it, and everyone here knows it! The fans cheer that!
Knight says he appreciates the support from Bailey and Ashville. Bailey is always in his corner, Knight is always in Bailey’s. And if Bailey keeps it up, he’ll be singles champion, too. Bailey says yeah, Knight got him thinking. Tonight, Darby VS Takeshita, BAILEY WANTS NEXT! Bailey says Takeshita was his greatest rival in Japan, but they’ve yet to have a singles match in AEW. And Darby, as much as Bailey wants to see MJF go bald…! Bailey is coming for Darby’s AEW World Championship! JetSpeed daps it up, will they become a 2 Fly 2 Man Power Trip?
AEW reveals the Men’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament Brackets!
This year’s tournaments will go through Double or Nothing, and the finals will coincide with Forbidden Door 2026 on Sunday, June 28th in San Jose, California! The winner of each tournament will then challenge for THE AEW World Championship and AEW Women’s World Championships on August 30th at All In: London! And so, for the opening round, it will be: “Jungle” Jack Perry VS Mark Davis; Claudio Castagnoli VS Brody King; then Double or Nothing has both Samoa Joe VS Will Ospreay, and Swerve Strickland VS Bandido!
“Jungle” Jack Perry speaks.
“Mark Davis… I’m sure you feel some congratulations are in order. But you’re not champion to me. You see, you’re built like an Australia grizzly bear, yet you still needed somebody to hit me in the back with a golf club for you to beat me. At Stadium Stampede, bring your friends, bring any weapon you want, and I will crack you over the skull with it. Because anything goes. But after that, it’s back to grass roots, because it is you and me, fighting for a shot at the world title at All In: London. And in the Owen Hart Tournament, I will prove to you beyond a shadow of a doubt that I’m a better wrestler than you. I am the FUTURE world champion!
“And if you don’t like that, F YOU!” Jungle Jack is sharpening his knife, but will his edge be razor sharp when it comes time to cut down Dunkzilla?
Will Ospreay VS Ace Austin!
We’ve seen the Aerial Assassin training with The Death Riders, he’s won gold with his old friends in The United Empire, and now he’s about to face a dangerous man at Double or Nothing. Will Ospreay be more than ready for Samoa Joe after tonight? Or will he fail to even get past The Inevitable?
The bell rings and the fans cheer Ospreay as he stares down with Ace. Ospreay offers a handshake, Ace accepts, and the fans cheer the sportsmanship. They circle, tie up, and Ospreay wrenches to wristlock. Ace rolls, handsprings, and wrenches, but Ospreay rolls, kips up, and wrenches back. Ospreay hammerlocks, Ace rolls to kip up and wrench to then armlock. Ospreay endures the grind, fights around, and he arm-drags Ace down. Ace endures, fights around, and rises up. Ace shoots through to waistlock but Ospreay switches. Ospreay hits the headlock takeover, Ace headscissors, but Ospreay kips free.
The fans cheer the standoff, and the two reset. They feel things out, knuckle lock, and go shoulder to shoulder in a Test of Strength. The fans rally as Ace pushes Ospreay back. Ace has Ospreay down for a knuckle lock cover, ONE as Ospreay gets his arm up. Ace pushes it down, cover, ONE as Ospreay gets the other arm up. Ace tries again, ONE as Ospreay bridges! Ace jumps up, but Ospreay holds the bridge! That training truly pays off! Ace jumps, Ospreay gets him for a MONKEY FLIP! The fans fire up as Ospreay then arm-drags! Ospreay wristlocks and he bends the fingers! Ospreay isolates the arm to then STOMP it!

Ace TAPS, Ospreay wins!!
Winner: Will Ospreay, by submission
That might’ve been Ospreay’s first win by submission ever! He signals that his neck is no longer a problem, and he shows Ace respect for that fight. Ace accepts the handshake again, and Ospreay is moving on towards Double or Nothing with a great amount of momentum. But wait! SAMOA JOE is here! He and The Opps walk out on stage, and with mic in hand, Joe says, “Ospreay, Ospreay… OSPREAY, OSPREAY!” Joe is clearly mocking the chants for Ospreay, and the fans give genuine chanting and even singing in return. Joe says he just wanted to make sure Ospreay was listening, because these past few weeks, it seemed like Ospreay had a hard time hearing him.
Despite Ospreay’s best efforts, fate has put them on a collision course in the opening round of the Owen Hart Cup. The fans like the sound of that! Joe say she is here for one reason and one reason alone. He wants to speak about choices and consequences. Ospreay could’ve made the right choice and get a bye in this tournament, because that is what Joe would do for one of his friends. But Ospreay chose poorly. He could’ve been with the team that would do nothing but support and enhance Ospreay, but he decided to be a lapdog for Moxley and the Death Riders. The fans boo, Ospreay says he’s not a Death Rider.
Joe says Ospreay has made his choice, and come Double or Nothing, Joe makes Ospreay suffer the consequences. But Joe leaves Ospreay in peace tonight, for he has his date with destiny. But unfortunately, Joe’s friends, Katsuyori Shibata & Anthony Bowens, still feel slighted, and he doesn’t put leashes on his friends. Shibata & Bowens storm down the ramp, Ospreay ready to fight them both if he has to. But then The Death Riders appear! Ospreay may not have officially joined the club, but the Death Riders aren’t going to let their investment go to waste! The Opps say they’re #NeverLacking, but that doesn’t seem to be the case now!
Shibata & Bowens back down while Moxley, Marina, Claudio, Yuta, Garcia & Pac all step up to support Ospreay. Joe says, “Soon. Soon.” The fans cheer the Death Riders, or at least Moxley, but Bowens promises Joe is gonna kill you, Ospreay! The dream match for Double or Nothing is on, but will the training with The Death Riders make Ospreay the new King of Harts?
BREAKING NEWS for next week!
If you liked last week’s THREE HOUR block of AEW, then you’ll love this next one! Portland, Maine, the last Wednesday before Double or Nothing, Dynamite & Collision are combining forces again! Three hours all on TBS and HBO Max, make sure your DVR is set accordingly!
Backstage interview with Don Callis & Konosuke Takeshita.
Renee is now with The Invisible Hand & The Alpha, saying tonight is a huge opportunity in the main event, Konosuke facing Darby Allin for THE AEW World Championship. Konosuke could be heading into Double or Nothing as a- Callis stops Renee there to say Konosuke will be heading into Double or Nothing as a DOUBLE champion! But then MJF steps in, apologizes for the interruption but says Renee’s doing a great job. The Scumbag tells Konosuke that while it’s been a minute since the two of them have talked, three years actually, back when MJF beat him… MJF has seen Konosuke develop into truly one of the best wrestlers in the world!
MJF believes that tonight, Konosuke beats Darby for the title, goes to DON to beat Okada, and MJF can’t think of a better match than Konosuke VS MJF Part 2 for the world title. How’s that sound? MJF offers a handshake, Konosuke shakes his hand, but in Japanese, Konosuke tells MJF that he’ll beat the crap out of him. Thankfully, MJF doesn’t know Japanese. Callis says that was a nice pep talk MJF just gave, and MJF says yes, he knows. That kid needs to win, okay? MJF can’t let Darby turn him into some disgusting, bald freak! No offense, Callis looks great. But look, there is only one foolproof way to know MJF won’t be put in that situation.
So if things get hairy… MJF hands over the Dynamite Diamond Ring! Callis smiles, and say she understands what to do with it. But then in steps Andrade. El Idolo takes off his hat to shake out his amazing head of hair, and smiles at MJF. MJF frowns and leaves. Callis says here’s the deal: Takeshita will bring the world title home to the Don Callis Family tonight! Andrade asks, “How you know?” Callis says aye dios mio, he seriously doesn’t know where Andrade learned English. Andrade says one way or another, the next time, that will be HIS title. Callis says yes, he knows, it’s all good. Callis is a man of many talents, but will his family be dripping with gold thanks to a diamond ring?
AEW now announces the Women’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournament brackets!
Double or Nothing will see Willow Nightingale, the reigning Queen of Harts, take on Alex Windsor, while we will see Persephone VS Hazuki, Skye Blue vs Sareee, and Mina Shirakawa VS Athena! Champions from around the world are gathering for this tournament, but who will be headed to Forbidden Door, and then All In: London?
Backstage interview with The Conglomeration.
Renee Paquette is now with Orange Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly, Roderick Strong, and Willow Nightingale. Renee commends Cassidy on his part in the 10 Man Tag victory. But it seems that there is even more business to attend to. Cassidy says yes, the team has a shot at THE AEW World Tag Team Championships. It doesn’t matter who it is, they’re getting their shot, but the thing is… They still haven’t decided on which two will be. Kyle says Cassidy & Roddy should go for the gold, but Roddy shouts, “KYYYLE~! Thank you.” Kyle says of course. But that’s cuz he’s got gold to chase for himself!
The same man that put Kyle on the shelf for months is the man that Kyle submitted twice, and will submit again. Jon Moxley, Continental Champion, when are we doing this? Willow says speaking of gold, she is still the TBS Champion. But she is also in the Owen Hart Cup. She won this tournament before, she’ll do it all over again, so that she can have all the gold for herself at All In: London. She knows she can, and she will! Then Conglomeration has it all in order? Cassidy says hold on, there’s something missing. They should do a Word of the Day. Why haven’t they done one in so long? Roddy shouts for “MAAARK~!” And yes, Mark Briscoe returns!
The Sussex County Chicken is all fired up, and he says the Word of the day is reunification! For Mark Briscoe is back with his boys and his girls, The Conglomeration! But he’ll put this plain and simple: Tommaso Ciampa! Next Wednesday, Briscoe’s after your ass, son! You hear him? But before that, Saturday Night Collision is in HIS hometown, Salisbury, Maryland! That’s just 4.4 miles from where Briscoe originated on this earth! They’re gonna conglomerate and it’s gonna be a a hell of a time! Are you ready!? Willow and Kyle are fired up, Briscoe goes wild, and the team heads out. Cassidy admits, that was a lot of yelling.
But while The Conglomeration is ready to go Double or Nothing, will they soon have even more gold in the collection? Or are these high and lofty a little too much even for them?
Six Woman Tag: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds VS The Triangle of Madness!
With the news of both the AEW Women’s World Championship Fatal 4 Way for Double or Nothing, and the Owen Hart Cup brackets, this trios match is about much more than just settling scores! Will the Shining Samurai be just as sharp as Jamie Hayter going into that title match? Or will Thekla, Skye Blue & Julia Hart continue to bring them down by any means necessary?
The trios sort out and Jamie steps up against Thekla as both a rematch from their 1v1 title match, and a preview of what’s to come in the next. They circle, but then Skye CLOBBERS Jamie! Julia steps in, but so do Shida and Windsor! The Triangle throws hands on Shida & The Birds, then triple whip. But all three reverse, a BOOT for Thekla, a DDT for Skye, and a BACKBREAKER for Julia! The fans cheer as The Triangle bails out! Shida goes out to keep after Skye while Windsor goes after Julia.

Windsor joins in and the Birds double gorilla press, SNAKE EYES off the apron! The fans fire up, but Thekla is up top! SUPER CROSSBODY onto The Birds!
The fans fire up again and Thekla is feeling it while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Thekla stomps Windsor, CLUBS Jamie, then helps Skye. But Shida runs up, only for Thekla to ELBOW her down! The Triangle has control again, they ROCK Jamie and Shida and Windsor, then send them all to the desk. The Triangle CHOP again and again and again! Then they wind up, but feint chops to SMACK all three off the apron! The Triangle soaks up the cheers and jeers before putting Jamie back in the ring. Thekla brings Jamie up, snapmares her down, then basement SUPERKICKS! Cocky cover, TWO! Thekla drags Jamie to the corner, tags Julia, and Julia runs up to LARIAT! Then she goes side to side to ELBOW Jamie down!
Julia snapmares Jamie to a cover, TWO! Julia is annoyed but she rains down fists. The ref reprimands, Julia stops, but then she sucker punches Windsor! And Shida, too! Julia then drags Jamie over, bumps her off buckles, and tags in Skye. Skye stomps Jamie around, then digs her boot in! The ref counts, Skye stops at 4, then she brings Jamie up. Jamie fires forearms and CHOPS, but Skye THROWS Jamie down by her hair! The ref reprimands again but Skye rains down forearms. Skye snapmares Jamie, mule kicks her, then covers, TWO! Skye frowns but she stomps Jamie down. Skye tags Julia while Dynamite returns to single picture.
Skye whips Jamie into Julia’s grasp, and Skye BLASTS Shida & Windsor while Julia tags Thekla. Julia has Jamie in the TARANTULA, and Skye sends Windsor in for Thekla’s HANGING HEADSCISSORS! Skye runs up to DOUBLE SHOTGUN The Birds! The fans are torn but Thekla says that’s how the Triangle does it, baby! Thekla then aims to MISSILE- NO, Jamie gest under! Thekla lands out, but Jamie BOOTS her down! Jamie looks at Shida, Shida is hesitant, but Shida tags in! The fans cheer as Shida sends Theknla to the corner, then JUMP KNEES! Shida keeps moving, she BLASTS Skye! Julia ROCKS Shida back!
Julia storms in but Shida kicks her and whips her into Thekla! Shida KNEES them both in the corner! Then Shida puts Thekla sideways in the corner, reels Julia in, and she snap suplexes Julia into Thekla! The fans fire up as Shida then suplexes Thekla high and hard! Cover, TWO! Shida stands Thekla up, Thekla swings but Shida ROCKS her first! And ROCKS her again! Thekla wobbles, swings, but Shida catches Thekla for another forearm! Shida runs the ropes but Thekla mule kicks! Thekla SMACKS Shida, then she dodges a boot to DECK Shida! Thekla talks trash on Shida, then drags her up to tag in Julia.
Julia tags Skye, then tag back to Thekla. The Sisters of Sin hit the DOUBLE GOURD BUSTER and DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! Thekla hits the bridge, and she aims for the SPIDER SPEAR!

Winners: Hikaru Shida & The Brawling Birds, by disqualification

More refs rush out here, but Julia MISTS the newbie in the face! Julia stomps away on Jamie, not caring about fines or consequences, either! The fans boo, and Shida is bailing on the Birds?

The fans cheer as The Babe, the Fighting Gravure Idol & La Mera Mera save the day. But will Jamie make sure Thekla and Shida pay for this at Double or Nothing?
AEW World Championship: Darby Allin VS Konosuke Takeshita!
They say “card subject to change,” and that is true even for the best in the world. Kazuchika Okada’s real family takes priority, but his Don Callis Family brother was more than happy to step up for this opportunity. Will The Alpha already have two belts by the time he and The Rainmaker battle over the International Championship? Or will Darby truly be relentless in his pursuit of being the best fighting champion in AEW history?
The introductions are made, THE belt is raised, and we see who goes to Double or Nothing on top!
Callis joins commentary to say that while Darby’s been breaking his own body, Konosuke has perfected “rejuvenation training,” aka relaxing on a beach and sipping sake! The bell rings, and Darby SHOTGUNS Konosuke out! Then Darby DIVES, but Konosuke catches him! Konosuke POSTS Darby, then THROWS him into railing! Konosuke THROWS Darby into the ring, the fans fire up for both guys, and Konosuke hurries to BOOT Darby off the apron! Darby falls in front of commentary but Konosuke gets him right back in the ring. Cover, ONE!! The fans rally as Darby shows his grit, but Konosuke snarls.
Konosuke drags Darby up, Darby fires forearms, but the ALPHA ELBOW knocks Darby down! The fans fire up while Konosuke looms over Darby. Konosuke stands Darby up, and THROWS him into a corner! Darby bounces off the buckles and is bleeding from the mouth already! Konosuke stands Darby up, hoists him up top, then he climbs up after him. But Darby BITES Konosuke, CLUBS him down, and leaps for a CROSSBODY, but he bounces off Konosuke! The fans fire up again as Konosuke whips Darby for a BACKDROP! Darby got serious hangtime there, and he flounders out of the ring. Darby coughs and sputters but the fans rally up.
Konosuke goes out after Darby but Darby SMACKS him! Konosuke KNEES low, KNEES him again and again and again! Konosuke KNEES Darby against the barriers, then refreshes the count.

Darby fires forearms, then goes up a corner! COFFIN- NO, Konosuke catches him for a SUPER BLUE THUNDER BOMB to the floor!! The fans go nuts again and Callis says that’s the end of Darby Allin, but Dynamite goes picture in picture.
The ref hurries to check Darby but Callis tells Doc Sampson to call it. Darby is somehow still in this, so Konosuke storms his way over. Konosuke drags Darby up, puts him in the ring, then paces around him. Konosuke runs the ropes to LARIAT! Darby flips inside-out, Konosuke covers him, TWO!! Darby still has fight inside but he’s also dazed. Konosuke clamps onto Darby with a chinlock and squeezes tight. Darby endures, even as Konosuke leans on him with his much-taller frame. Darby reaches out, fights around, and rises up, only for Konosuke to CANADIAN RACK BOMB! Darby sputters all over again while Dynamite returns to single picture.
Konosuke sits back as he watches Darby crawl to the apron. Konosuke storms his way over, but Darby RAMS low! Slingshot sunset flip, but Konosuke rolls through! Only for Darby to kick the legs out! Darby catches Konosuke to a GUILLOTINE! Konosuke endures the squeeze, fights up to his feet, and he powers out to THROW Darby! Darby lands out, fires shots, and RAMS low! Darby then hops on, but Konosuke stops Code Red! Konosuke swings Darby around, tucks him in, BASTARD DRIVER! And WHEELBARROW GERMAN! The fans fire up and Callis says that’s true power!

Konosuke runs corner to corner, HELLUVA KICK!! Then he hoists Darby up top, climbs up after him, and goes to the very top! The fans freak out already for the SUPER DUPER GERMAN SUPLEX!! Bridging cover, TWO!!! Callis is freaking out as much as the fans, and he protests the count! Konosuke is furious, but he aims for the WAGAMAMA KNEE!!! Cover, TWO?!?! Darby survives by nanoseconds, and Konosuke is beside himself! “This is Awesome!” but now CLØN rushes out here! He distracts the ref, and Callis hurries to take the Dynamite Diamond Ring off his finger to put it in Konosuke’s hands! Konosuke thinks about it, but The Alpha has honor!
The fans cheer as Konosuke wants to do this his way! But then Darby runs up, cradles, TWO!! Konosuke escapes, ALPHA ELBOW!! Darby is down, dazed, but still moving!

Konosuke escapes again, then bails out! So Darby just goes up top! SUPER COFFIN DROP!! Direct hit and both men are down again!

Darby drags himself in at 9, but Konosuke YANKS him back out! That refreshes the count, and Konosuke vows to end this for real now. Konosuke points to the steel steps, and he drags Darby up onto them with a deadlift RAGING- NO, Darby knees Konosuke, turns things around, and FULL METAL SCORPION DEATH DROP!!!
The fans go nuts again while Konosuke writhes! Konosuke flops off the steps, Darby crawls into the ring, and Darby just climbs the corner again! SUPER DUPER COFFIN DROP!!!

But Darby is right up top! COFFION DROP on the back!! Then Darby goes right back up, COFFIN DROP again!!! Cover, DARBY WINS!!
Winner: Darby Allin, by pinfall (still AEW World Champion)
Callis is steaming, but Darby overcomes Konosuke to avenge that loss in the Continental Classic! But it also took so much out of him just to do it! Darby still asks for a mic and one is brought to him. Darby sits up against the ropes, has them cut his music, and he tells MJF to get his ass out here! There’s a contract MJF needs to sign! The ring crew hurries to bring in a table and some chairs for that very contract signing, and MJF makes his entrance. MJF reluctantly makes his way down the ramp, and both men meet at the table. Darby grins with blood still in hiss teeth, and he signs his part of the contract without hesitation, unlike MJF.
The fans already chant “BALD! BALD! BALD!” at MJF, and Darby pushes the contract to his side of the table. MJF grabs the pen, reaches out, but then steps away. MJF scratches his chin as he thinks on this, and the fans just chant, “BALD! BALD! BALD!” again. MJF takes a mic to say he’ll explain something to Darby, looking like he has rabies. But see, MJF is happy for Darby, he hopes Darby’s had fun holding MJF’s AEW World Championship. The fans boo that, but MJF says deep down, there is a small part of him, like the size of a North Carolinian p*nis small. That small part of MJF feels bad for Darby, because he’ll never hold this again!
Darby’s got about a good a chance of holding this title as Hangman Adam Page does again. MJF says guys like Darby are a dime a dozen, here today and gone tomorrow, stuntmen who burn the candle at both ends. In this life, people like all these fans here like to pretend that life is about making friends and family and children. The only thing that matters in life is your legacy. And Darby’s legacy will be that of the kid who had his 15 minutes of fame. They’ll pretend like Darby made a lasting impact, but the fact of the matter is, he hasn’t. He hasn’t! They’ll know deep down that Darby Allin was just a little pr*ck who got lucky.
They’ll know that Darby was too reckless and stupid to stay on top. And after May 24th, Double or Nothing, in that sh*thole of Queens, New York, y’know what MJF’s legacy will be? He’ll go down as the guy who became a THREE-TIME World Champion at just 30 years of age, unprecedented in this sport. And MJF will go down, when it’s all said and done, as the Greatest of All Time! THAT is the difference between them! Darby Allin brags about climbing a mountaintop. But when it comes to professional wrestling, Maxwell Jacob Friedman IS the mountaintop! The fans boo but MJF soaks it up. Darby tells MJF to SHUT UP!
Only someone like MJF who is so vain would think that the number one most important thing in this world is his legacy. Darby doesn’t care about legacy, he cares about living in the moment! And in this moment, Darby just wants MJF to sign the contract. Then at Double or Nothing, Darby makes Maxwell Jacob Friedman a BALLD HEADED B*TCH!! MJF frowns but the fans cheer that! MJF grabs the pen again, and with no choice, he signs on the dotted line! Then he TACKLES Darby! The fans boo as MJF beats up Darby after the war he went through with Konosuke! MJF CHUCKS an armchair outta the ring, FLIPS the table, then picks up his Dynamite Diamond Ring.
MJF puts the ring on his finger like always, then winds up to DECK Darby!! The fans boo but MJF just soaks it all up. MJF throws off his jacket, picks up the belt, and he stands over Darby with it. But then MJF isn’t done with Darby, he puts Darby on the top rope! MJF climbs up to join him, and drags Darby into position! But wait! Kevin Knight runs out here to chase MJF off! The Jet still owes The Scumbag a receipt, but it seems we’ll all have to wait on that. Will MJF still take back the title at Double or Nothing? Or will Darby keep the belt and take MJF’s dignity?
My Thoughts:
An awesome episode for Dynamite as things heat up towards Double or Nothing. Awesome 10 Man Tag to open, great win for the Faces, not that it added much to FTR VS C&C. Good promo from Jericho to look back on Stadium Stampede and hype up this year’s match. Good promo from The Demand with Davis and The Dogs, and I suppose this maximizes the feuds as well as the alliances throughout the locker room. Who knows who wins but the match will still be awesome, just as the original was. Good promo from Conglomeration, too, Cassidy & Roddy going after FTR while Kyle VS Moxley happens on the side, that’s great stuff.
Speaking of Moxley, great promo from him and Ospreay. Moxley’s semi-turn has really brought out his sage philosophical side. Great match from Ospreay VS Ace, and while Ospreay could always bring out his aggression, seeing him use more technical wrestling and even winning with a submission is good stuff. Good promo from Joe, and I liked Death Riders backing Ospreay up. Very good Owen Hart Cup brackets this year, Joe VS Ospreay is a great choice given this story, but I would think Ospreay wins that one. Good promo from Jack Perry to call out Davis, and I suppose Jack can win in the Owen Cup to then move on from the National title.
Great seeing Brian Cage back, he gave Knight an awesome match, but with JetSpeed wanting to go on a Two Man Power Trip, it makes sense Kevin won out. Same for Bailey beating Westbrook, even though Westbrook maybe went too hard on his own acrobatic escape. Great stuff in the Six Woman Tag, and I appreciate Shida didn’t ditch until after the match. Willow, Mina & Rosa might get their own Six Woman Tag with Triangle of Madness after that interaction, but also can’t wait to see if Willow can go back-to-back as Queen of Harts. For that matter, I personally would love to see Athena use the Owen Cup to move on from being ROH Women’s World Champion, but that depends on how Supercard of Honor goes this Friday.
And of course, another wild instant classic from Darby as he overcomes Takeshita. I knew the diamond ring would come into play with that reverse effect, good way of protecting Takeshita in the loss. Good stuff with MJF tonight, too, such as the opening segment’s parade of bald men to send the message to MJF. That was also a unique contract signing segment in that it came together so quickly after the main event match. Good stuff from MJF as always, and of course he attacks Darby. I feel like either Knight should not have made the save, or both parts of JetSpeed should’ve made the save. It just seems odd that only Knight cared about saving Darby. The closing moment was much better when it was MJF standing over Darby with the belt.
My Score: 9/10
