Kevin Owens heads to the ring!
Last week to close out Raw, the Prizefighter called out the Texas Rattlesnake for WrestleMania. Stone Cold Steve Austin answered online with a “OH HELL YEAH!” Kevin now gets a mic and looks to the WrestleMania sign. Jacksonville is booing but Kevin says, “Hey yo. What you’re looking at right now is the happiest Canadian camper in the world. Because ladies and gentlemen, it’s official. I am going to WrestleMania! And as far as I’m concerned, I’m not just going to WrestleMania, I am going to the main event of WrestleMania Saturday, because my guest on that night for the KO Show is none other than the greatest of all time, Stone Cold Steve Austin!”
Kevin says that for a minute, it looked like all hope was lost for him. So he used his superior Canadian intellect and started thinking, “What can I do?” And that’s when he got it. He knew what to do! Since none of these yellow-teethed Texans can turn down a challenge, why not challenge the embodiment of Texas itself? Kevin knew Austin would accept, and now he’s pretty proud. Now, the entire world- Fans chant for “USA! USA!” Yes, including the USA, everyone gets to witness the most stupendous KO Show of all time as he decimate and smears Stone Cold all over Texas, from Dallas to Austin to San Antonio to Corpus Christi to Loredo!
Kevin heard Stone Cold’s gonna open one last can of whoop ass on Kevin? EH-EH! Not happening! The only can that will open is a nice, cold can of Canadian beer after he’s done with Austin. And Kevin doesn’t even like beer! He’ll make an exception on that night, because mark Kevin’s words. NO one will be saying “OH HELL YEAH” after Kevin’s done with Austin. They’ll be going “OH HELL NO” as Kevin beats the hell outta Austin! That’s the bottom line, cuz KO said so! And then he gives the cameraman a STUNNER!! Will KO #StunTheWorld when he gives one of those to Austin? Or will he get a stunner from the man who did it best?

The Prince wants after the Archer of Infamy after the last two times Priest has roughed him up! Will Finn hit his target? Or will Damian earn himself a rematch for the US Championship in time for WrestleMania?

Priest KICKS Finn more and more, Theory does commentary, and Priest hits a ROLLING ELBOW! Finn CHOPS, KICKS, but Priest BELL CLAPS! Priest runs in but Finn BOOTS him! Finn fires forearms and body shots, then whips. Priest reverses, Finn ducks and dodges, but runs into a choke grip! But Finn wheelbarrows to a DOUBLE STOMP! Finn runs in to SLINGBLADE!

Backstage interview with Seth Rollins.
Kevin Patrick says Kevin Owens has a plan, but does Rollins have any developments? Or is he still not part of WrestleMania? Rollins glares at Kevin and Kevin leaves. Is there a plan in the Architect’s mind? Or is he too consumed with rage?
Omos VS Commander Azeez w/ Apollo Crews!
It’s like a kaiju battle in real life! Will the colossal Omos still be dominant going up against the Pride of Nigeria’s number one soldier? Or has he finally met his match?
Raw returns as Apollo and Azeez make their entrance. The bell rings and the two look each other over. Then they tie up! They’re in a deadlock, but Omos manages to power Azeez back.

Kevin Owens finds Seth Rollins backstage.
Kevin snaps Rollins out of his funk and says he knows things are tough. But those tough times don’t last, tough guys do. Kevin knows Rollins can get on WrestleMania. He just has to focus his energy somewhere, like Kevin did! Kevin is going there by just thinking up something. Rollins is the Visionary, Kevin isn’t, so let’s get a vision! Think back to past WrestleMania moments. Triple H, Brock Lesnar, the Money in the Bank cash-in, losing to Kevin. Okay, don’t think about that one. But they created a moment together so they can do it again. They’re best friends, and Rollins is creative. They can build something and-
Rollins stops Kevin there. Rollins smiles and laughs because he has an idea! Kevin takes partial credit for this, but just what did he inspire Rollins to come up with?
Liv Morgan w/ Rhea Ripley VS Queen Zelina Vega w/ Carmella!
The WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships match grew into a Triple Threat, and that means a 33.33% of winning! But will Liv show the Queen of the Ring that a crown don’t mean a thing? Or will Vega prove she has the advantage going into WrestleMania?
Raw returns as Vega & Mella make their entrance. The bell rings and the two circle. They tie up, Vega throws Liv down but Liv kips up. Vega kicks low, straitjackets the arms and turns Liv for a NECKBREAKER! Vega holds the straitjacket for the CHANCERY! Liv endures, fans rally as Vega bridges, but then Vega drops to turn it into a straitjacket stretch! Liv continues to endure, Rhea rallies the fans, but Vega SLAMS Liv down. Vega soaks up the heat, bumps Liv off buckles, and then JUMP KICKS! Liv falls, Vega runs, and Vega KNEES Liv down! Cover, TWO! Mella isn’t worried as Vega has the legs.
But Liv kicks Vega away, Vega dodges, but Liv sunset flips! TWO! ROLLING CRADLE! They go around and around, back to the sunset, TWO! But now we go the other way! Liv has the sunset again, TWO! Liv and Vega are a little dizzy but Liv kicks, KICKS and DROPKICKS! Vega ends up in a corner, fans fire up but Mella distracts Liv. Liv swipes at Mella, Vega POWERBOMBS Liv! Mella applauds her own handiwork, but Rhea storms over. Fans fire up as Rhea warns Mella, and then starts chasing her! Mella leaps onto Graves for protection! Vega asks what the heck is going on out there, but then she focuses on Liv.
Vega runs, Liv gets around, OBLIVION! Cover, Liv wins!
Winner: Liv Morgan, by pinfall
Graves reassures Mella that this isn’t a big deal, but Vega glares over at her teammate. Is it all crumbling down for the Queen and the Most Beautiful Woman in the WWE?
Seth Rollins heads to the ring!
The Visionary doesn’t wait for the others to leave, he’s that excited for his WrestleMania idea! What is it that has him so happy? We’ll find out, after the break.
Raw returns and Rollins has the mic and a big smile on his face. “Ladies and gentlemen, I have a plan to get myself to Wrestle~ Mania~!” With less than three weeks to go, he thought all hope was lost. After losing out on the Raw Tag Team Championships, he thought all hope was lost! But then his best friend, Kevin, reminded him who he is! He IS a visionary, he IS a revolution, he is Seth FREAKIN’ Rollins! And he has a plan! But he wants his best friend to be here to party in Jacksonville! C’mon out, Kevin! Kevin makes his way back out and fans boo. Kevin goes to the ring and gets a mic to say he can’t wait to hear this!
So is Kevin ready? Are the fans ready? No drum roll yet. Kevin has a talk show, right? The KO Show. And his guest will be Stone Cold Steve Austin! But what if… Seth Rollins had a talk show? Like Freakin’ Speakin’ or the Rollins Report! Or check this! What if HIS guest was also Stone Cold Steve Austin! What? No no no. Stone Cold is Kevin’s guest, he has a talk show, Rollins can’t just copy Kevin. That’s not a good plan. Rollins should think differently. Right, right, of course. There can’t just be another talk show. So here we go! Rollins VS Kevin, winner gets the talk show with Stone Cold! YEAH! Why didn’t Rollins think of this sooner?!
No, no, no! Kevin had the idea first, Austin is his guest, Austin is pissed at Kevin, he’s coming for Kevin, that’s how it is. Rollins needs to get his own idea. But Rollins needs this! So does Kevin! What is Rollins doing this for? Sonya Deville walks out and she admits, she likes Rollins’ idea. What?! Sonya is going to give them time to get ready, because the main event will be Kevin VS Rollins! And yes, the winner gets to host the talk show with Austin? WHY!? Kevin is furious but Rollins is excited! Will Kevin have to give his best friend a stunner to keep things as planned?
The Mysterios VS The Hurt Business!
Rey & Dominik are back in action against Cedric Alexander & Shelton Benjamin, and hopefully The Miz will be nowhere near ringside for this one. Will the King of Lucha Libre and his son get this one fair and square? Or will PRIMED Alexander & the Gold Standard get a win even without help?

The newest 2022 Hall of Fame inductee is announced!
It is Queen Sharmell! Wife to Booker T, aka KING BOOKAH, now joins him in the HOF. Long live the royal couple of the WWE!
Edge is here!
And he has a new theme! “You think you know me? Hahaha, you never did.” But he’s keeping that eerie purple spotlight from last week as he makes his way out to the ring. Edge gets the mic while Jacksonville boos. “Let’s bring you all up to speed, shall we? I am the benchmark of the WWE. For the last two weeks, my synapses have been firing at such a rapid degree that it took me time to decipher the code of what I’ve actually become. That’s above all your capability of understanding, you’re simple. That’s not your fault so I’ll grant you mercy. I’ll put this in terms you can understand: I am better than everyone.”
Edge is better than all the fans here but that’s a given. Edge is also better than everyone, every single superstar in this entire industry. But since Edge came back two years ago, he hasn’t shown that aptitude. The Edge that came back, intent in pleasing and appeasing the fans, was WEAK! Edge realized, the fans don’t matter! In trying to please them, he took his eyes of the prize, allowing Randy Orton to tear Edge’s triceps from the bone! Allowing Seth Rollins to cost Edge the Universal Championship, walk into his home and piss all over his territory! Allowing the Aquaman cosplayer, Roman Reigns, a man who can’t lace Edge’s boots, to stack and pin Edge at WrestleMania.
And if that Edge faced Styles at Mania, then Styles would leave that Edge in the dust. “But that Edge… That Edge is dead, baby! Because now, I sit perched on my mountain of omnipotence, looking down on everyone.” Edge will not be judged by fans! Or by anyone in the locker room, and certainly not by AJ Styles! Edge will pass the verdicts around here from now on. He would apologize if he cared, but he doesn’t! So AJ, if, and that is a big if. IF AJ Styles makes it to WrestleMania, and we see two generational talents face each other for the first time ever… Edge soaks in the moment while fans chant, “You Still Suck!”
Edge hears them chant at him but he just looks to the WrestleMania sign. “Then, AJ… You will be judged.” The Rated R Superstar drops the mic and laughs as he has become something far worse. Will Edge prove he is greater than phenomenal at the most stupendous WrestleMania of all time?
Backstage interview with Bianca Belair.
Sarah points out that Becky Lynch continues to assert Bianca’s hair is an unfair advantage in their matches. How does Bianca respond? It is both an advantage and disadvantage. It can whip sense into Becky, but that was after Becky wrapped the hair around the ropes. Bianca takes the good with the bad, that is part of her identity. And that right there is the weapon Becky is really afraid of. The way Bianca sees things, the real advantage is… Do you hear that? That’s the sounds of Becky NOT running her mouth. Raw has been so peaceful after Bianca got Becky in the throat and stopped her from flapping her lips all the time.
So tonight, Bianca is going to use this to her advantage. She’ll focus on her opponent, and use Doudrop to give Becky a preview of what’s to come at WrestleMania. And if Becky is speechless now, just wait until the EST of the WWE shuts her up for good at WrESTleMania.
Bianca Belair VS “Doudrop” Piper Niven w/ Nikki A.S.H!
The EST and Doudrop have battled a few times before, and Bianca continues to have the advantage in the win-loss record. But will having the Almost SuperHero in her corner give Piper a new advantage over Bianca?
Raw returns and Piper makes her entrance, accompanied by Nikki. The bell rings, Piper and Bianca approach and Piper kicks low to then CLUB away on Bianca. Piper bumps Bianca off buckles, stomps her, but then runs into buckles! Bianca ROCKS Piper, slingshots in and rams Piper. Piper stays up to run Bianca over! But Bianca kips up and dropkicks back! And then Bianca whips Piper, but Piper reverse. Bianca goes up and over and then eggs Piper on. Piper and Bianca circle, things speed up, and Bianca hurdles! Piper fakes out the drop kick, but misses the senton! Bianca handsprings, and MOONSAULTS!
Bianca kips up again and fans cheer as she swings her hair around, Bianca wants to torture rack but Piper fights that off. Piper HEADBUTTS Bianca and Bianca falls out of the ring. Piper goes out and runs in around the way, but Bianca hurdles her! Bianca leaps, but into Piper’s arms! Bianca slips off the scoop to RAM Piper into the apron! Piper SHOVES Bianca into barriers! Then CANONBALLS but misses as Bianca moves! Both women are down on the outside as Raw goes to break!
Raw returns again and Bianca fights up out of the cobra clutch. But Piper uses that to ripcord and MICHINOKU DRIVER! Cover, TWO! Piper is frustrated but she goes corner to corner to CANNONBALL into buckles! Bianca fires off on Piper with forearms, then she gets around to dropkick Piper to a corner! Bianca runs in to RAM into Piper! And again, and again! The ref counts, Bianca lets off to whip but Piper reveres. Bianca goes up, tells Piper to kiss this, then she jumps over Piper to spin her and reel her in! Piper is too much to suplex, but she suplexes back! Bianca slips free, goes to a corner and she BOOTS Piper away!
Piper snarls and runs in, but Bianca hits her with a SPINEBUSTER! Fans fire up, Bianca grabs at Piper. Bianca uses the corner to help with the torture rack! KISS OF DEATH! Cover, Bianca wins!
Winner: Bianca Belair, by pinfall
Nikki A.S.H. shakes her head, but Jacksonville is fired up for Bianca! But then BECKY is here! She drags Bianca out of the ring by the hair! Becky RAMS Bianca into steel steps, and is still seething as she SMACKS Bianca off the desk! Becky gets a chair from the timekeeper’s area, and she sits it up by Bianca. Becky SMACKS Bianca off the seat! And then she puts Bianca through the chair, and uses the hair to whip Bianca into the POST! Now Bianca’s clutching her neck! Becky says next week, it’s the hair’s turn! The Man, dressed in gold, swaggers out after having crushed the EST. Will she make sure Bianca never even makes it to WrestleMania?
RKBRO heads to the ring!
The Raw Tag Team Champions head to the ring, because it’s time to celebrate! How will these two party in Jacksonville? We’ll find out, after the break.
Raw returns and we see that the red carpet is out, as well as green balloons. Riddle feels he’s in a time vortex cuz he keeps replaying last week over and over again in his mind. Randy, we did it, bro! We’re going to WrestleMania!” Riddle is right, RKBRO is going to Mania! Now earlier today, Orton was doing some math. It turns out that 2022 is going to be the 18th appearance of Orton at Mania. But he thinks the 18th is going to be the sweetest, because he has never been tag team champion going in. He’s never had a real tag team partner, a friend! Riddle has had Orton’s back since day one and never doubted their success!
They are successful, so Orton thanks Riddle for that. They hug! Now, last time they won, they threw a party. So of course, this time, Orton is returning the favor. Popcorn and soda? Hmm. Orton admits, party planning isn’t his thing. But trying is what counts. Riddle says this is the greatest night of his career. He’s dead serious! Orton’s the coolest. And he even got the balloons. Riddle’s birthday is in 10 months but that’s the Viper’s wisdom. Did Orton get this from Truly Treasures in Jacksonville? Actually, Orton got this from the concession stand in the back. Orton knows Riddle so well! He loves that stuff!
And wow, bubblegum! They both love gum, they’re going to share those. The last give is also something they’re going to share. What is this? Is this…? Yes, Orton searched high and low to find it. But wait, here come the Street Profits! Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford walk out and say they came all the way to DUUUUUVAL~ to official congratulate the NEW W, W, E, Raw, Tag, Team, Champions, R K BRO! R K BRO! Yeaaaah~! Riddle didn’t know Orton invited the Profits. This is gonna be the party of the century! Like that Broga party but- Ford says this isn’t for the party. This is about business.
Profits pinned RKBRO in the ring a few weeks back. So seeing as how RKBRO are the tag team champions, the Profits figured they should officially challenge them to the most stupendous WrestleMania in history! Whoa, whoa, hold on. Do you even know what RKBRO had to do to get these titles back? What they had to even earn the rematch? They had to jump over every hurdle, through every hoop. The Profits can’t just win one match and expect to be next. RKBRO had to win a spelling bee! So thanks for coming, have some popcorn, but the answer is no. Okay, bros? Dawkins says when it comes to the titles, they ain’t bros.
And Orton, Ford isn’t sure if you misunderstood. RKBRO owes the Profits a match. They’re way past asking. They’re telling RKBRO that they’re facing them at WrestleMania. Orton says not once since he first stepped in this ring has anyone told Orton what to do. The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Triple H, even Vincent Kennedy McMahon hasn’t told Orton what to do when he is in this ring! And the Profits aren’t, either. So here’s some advice, homies. Turn around and leave, or Orton will listen to those voices in his head and make them leave! Riddle keeps the peace, and he says the Profits make a good point. And they gotta face somebody, right?
Orton isn’t sure but Riddle says this is the right thing to do. RKBRO argue it out, the Profits wait, and the champs come back. Orton says they’re lucky his boy here is cool. As far as that challenge for the titles go, “We accept.” Ford says they appreciate Riddle talking sense into Orton. The next time they’re in DUUUUVAL~, the Profits will show them how to throw a party that ain’t so much… ass. Riddle gets upset here. Don’t disrespect Orton! He worked long and hard for this! Riddle thought they were cool. But why wait for Mania? Dawkins says okay, if Riddle wants a match with Ford, then he’s got it! The Profits are up-
Oh, no, they don’t end like that! They end with the three most dangerous letters in sports entertainment: R K BRO! The Bro is fired up to take on one of his bros, will this only tear them all apart on the Road to WrestleMania?
Matt Riddle w/ Randy Orton VS Montez Ford w/ Angelo Dawkins!
Raw returns and the bell rings on this one! Ford is fired up as he circles with Riddle and they tie up. Riddle puts Ford in a corner, Ford turns it around but Riddle turns it back. They end up in another corner, Riddle gets a leg, but the ref has him let go. The two go again, Ford stomps Riddle’s foot! Ford headlocks, Riddle powers out but Ford runs Riddle over! Ford STANIDNG MOONSAULTS, into a TRIANGLE HOLD! Ford kicks and flails and pushes to a cover, TWO! Ford headlocks again, Riddle powers out but Ford goes up and over in the corner to CLAW Riddle’s back! Ford’s fighting nasty tonight and Riddle wants to know what the heck!
Ford runs in, but into a gut wrench and SLAM! Riddle holds on and drags Ford back up, for another gut wrench suplex! Riddle then covers, TWO! Ford gets to a corner, but Riddle KICKS him! And KICKS!

Orton is relieved but Ford goes to a corner. Ford climbs, points to the Mania sign, FROM THE- NO! He bails out as Riddle moves, and he spins Ford around to PELE! Riddle runs in to forearm smash! Then side to side, forearm smash again! Ford fights the clinch, runs, but into a POWERSLAM! Just like Orton’s! Orton applauds, and Riddle now has Ford in the ropes! DRAPING DDT, bro!
Fans fire up and Riddle starts hearing voices in his head! Dawkins shouts to Ford, but Ford staggers. He still stops the RKO to ENZIGURI! Ford gets Riddle up, but Riddle slips out of the bomb! RKO!! But Otis ATTACKS Orton! And Gable attacks Dawkins! Gable POSTS Dawkins, Riddle runs at Otis but gets caught! Otis RAMS Riddle into the barriers, that’s a disqualification!
Winner: Matt Riddle, by disqualification
The Alpha Academy annihilates RKBRO, and now they focus on the Profits! DISCUS GERMAN SUPLEX om Dawkins! Gable and Otis then drag Ford into the drop zone, and Otis goes up top! VADER BOMB!! Gable MOONSAULTS! Fans boo but Gable shouts, “A THANK YEW~!” Will Gable & Otis get back into the tag title picture #ForTheAcademy?
WWE pays tribute to “Razor Ramon,” Scott Hall.
He proved it was good to be a Bad Guy. Hall made an instant impact in 1992 as the character, Razor Ramon. “You can’t teach somebody to be cool. And Scott Hall has always been cool.” It was finally cool to be bad. Hall would become one of the greatest WWE Intercontinental Champions, winning WWE’s first ladder match to become the undisputed Intercontinental Champion. And then of course, in WCW, Hall & Nash would add Hulk Hogan to the New World Order. “Hey, yo. Are you hear to see the nWo?” When your nWo, you’re nWo 4 life! The WWE family will forever remember Hall as a gifted entertainer, two-time Hall of Famer, a loving father, and a dear friend.
“Hard work pays off. Dreams come true. Bad times don’t last, but bad guys do.” – Scott Hall

Raw returns again, and Rollins is arguing with Kevin. Fans sing Rollins’ theme and that annoys Kevin more. The bell rings, Rollins and Kevin circle and feel out the grapple. Rollins rolls Kevin up, ONE! Kevin is frustrated already but Rollins is laughing it up. They go again, feel out the knuckle lock but Kevin kicks low. Rollins scrambles away from the stunner and Kevin says it was that close. Kevin says this doesn’t have to happen if Rollins could just come up with something else.

Direct hit this time and Kevin hits barriers! Rollins puts Kevin back in but Kevin slips back out! Kevin staggers by the announce desk but Rollins runs in, to DIVE! Kevin goes flying over the desk! Both men are down, the ring count is climbing and Jacksonville is fired up! Rollins stands at 6 of 10 to go in. Kevin drags himself up with the desk, and is in at 9.5! SUPERKICK! Rollins goes up top! FROG SPLASH!! Cover, TWO!!
Rollins is beside himself as Kevin survives! Rollins has Kevin in a corner and shouts, “I need this, Kevin! I need this!” Rollins CHOPS, then hoists Kevin up top! Rollins climbs up but Kevin blocks the superplex! Kevin throws body shots, shoves Rollins away, but Rollins comes right back! Only for Kevin to SUPER FISHERMAN BUSTER! Kevin crawls to the cover, TWO!! Kevin can’t believe that Rollins survives! But Kevin goes back up top, to SWANTON onto knees! Kevin writhes and rolls away while Rollins gets up. “This is Awesome!” as both men stand again. Rollins turns around, into a LARIAT!
Kevin wants Rollins to get back up! Rollins staggers into, NO! No stunner as Rollins shoves Kevin! But the ref got knocked down, too! He has to get up, TWO!! Rollins is furious! He feels he had that, but he runs in! Kevin dodges the stomp, STUNNER!! Cover, Kevin wins!
Winner: Kevin Owens, by pinfall; will host the KO Show at WrestleMania
Whether or not he wanted it more is debatable. But now it is undeniable that Stone Cold Steve Austin is going to be Kevin’s guest on the Grandest Stage of Them All. Rollins is stunned to say the least. Will he not have a WrestleMania moment after all?
My Thoughts:
A pretty good Raw in the wake of incredibly sad news. WWE put together a good tribute to Scott Hall, and he will be missed by all. And there were a great number of tribute references to him tonight, such as Kevin’s “Hey yo” when he started his promo, and how he paraphrased Hall’s HOF quote for Rollins. Priest had his own tribute with his entrance and with literally using a Razor’s Edge on Finn. I figured Priest was going to find a way to win that. This wasn’t a “Championship Contender’s match” but duh, they’re steering us towards Finn VS Priest. Theory keeps getting his shots in on Finn, too, mostly to get Heel Heat but it’s almost like Vince is using him to add on to Finn’s misery. Maybe all this goes together to give us Demon Balor at Mania.
Omos winning is great, but what a disservice to Azeez. That should’ve been way more than a squash. Yeah, it was awesome Omos suplexed Azeez but there should’ve been a bit more. Omos is nearing a level similar to Lesnar and Roman where it’s like no one normal can even touch them. I’ve said this last time but how is Omos supposed to be something more when he’s cleared out so many? We got a decent match out of Liv and Vega, but the better part was scaring Mella into using Graves as a shield, and for Vega to lose and be mad at Mella. Whether it’s Rhea & Liv or Sasha & Naomi, those titles are definitely going to another team, and maybe Vega will turn on Mella.
Good to see Nikki and Piper are sticking together, just as I was hoping. Nikki didn’t play much of a role, though, but I guess that’s the point. They’re Heels who see themselves as the heroes, so she let Piper face Bianca on her own. It went about the way all the other times Piper and Bianca went 1v1, but then Becky stands tall with a surprise return. That gold outfit was cool, and Becky beats Bianca down pretty savagely with that chair around the neck. Becky saying she’s going after the hair almost makes me wonder if we’d get a Hair VS Title match to spice things up. Probably not but who knows what’s coming next.
Mysterios VS Hurt Business was a good rematch from last week, but of course Miz and Logan Paul were going to attack again. The math is evening out with the Mysterios running them off, but Miz and Logan will surely keep trying. Edge had a pretty good promo this week, and that new theme song is fittingly also by Alter Bridge. It’s all working together for this new Heel persona of his. I wonder if he changes up how he wrestles, or even what his finishers are. We got a pretty good “celebration” segment for RKBRO, and I figured the Profits would show up. Their Mania match is definitely happening, and we got a great match out of Riddle VS Ford tonight. The Academy attacking was also a good twist, I sense another Triple Threat Tag.
Rollins and Kevin had great segments together tonight, and it was hilariously disappointing that Rollins couldn’t come up with some other idea than to copy Kevin’s. Hosting a talk show was probably the strangest prize for a match that I’ve heard of, but the match itself was great stuff. The desperation was strong from both guys, but naturally Kevin wins. Kevin and Austin is what makes sense given the use of the stunner. And Raw being in Jacksonville, all the talk of Cody Rhodes possibly returning, I was hoping for that, too. Cody and Rollins would make for an interesting dynamic given their current characters.
I thought we were going to hear a Cody theme song hit as we got that last shot of Rollins, but nope. Maybe they still bring Cody in next week, but it would’ve been way more fun to do it here in Jacksonville, given the last three years of AEW being based in Jacksonville. But maybe in Vince’s mind, that’s why they wouldn’t. He reluctantly gives fans things, so he wasn’t about to give fans what they want where Cody would get the best reaction.
My Score: 8.3/10

PLAY BY PLAY
NJPW mourns the loss of Tadao Yasuda.
President Hiroshi Tanahashi leads the way for Hontai, as well as other members of the locker room, out to the ring to honor the great career of the King of Debt. Yasuda passes at the age of 62, wrestling with NJPW from 1994 to 2005, winning the then vacant IWGP Heavyweight Championship in 2002 against Yuji Nagata. That would be his only NJPW title reign, moving on to HUSTLE Wrestling, which is no longer active, and Yasuda would retire in 2011. He may be a one hit wonder, but he was clearly a great friend to his peers, as we see Makabe and Yano tear up a bit during the moment of silence and ten ring bell salute.
Hiromu Takahashi & Taiji Ishimori VS Francesco Akira & Jakob Austin Young!
It has been confirmed already that win, lose or draw, the Ticking Timebomb’s time in NJPW has come to an end. Nothing lasts for ever, and the same goes for this incredible ride. Will the Unbound Company be able to see Hiromu off with a smile? Or will the Crown of Fire and #DangerousJAY ruin it all out of spite?
Akira is already getting in Taiji’s face, as well as Hiromu’s face, but the ref has him cool off. The teams sort out and after the Unbound fist bump, Hiromu starts against Akira. The fans all cheer “HI-RO-MU! HI-RO-MU!” But then Akira slides out, and Jakob steps in, so Hiromu thinks they tagged out. But then Jakob BLASTS Taiji and Akira CLOBBERS Hiromu!

The fans cheer as Akira is sent tumbling in retreat! Robbie and Taiji help Hiromu to his feet, and they celebrate together.

Shingo Takagi & “Drilla” Dan Moloney VS Great-O-Khan & HENARE!
Unbound Company scored first over The United Empire, but this is about settling a different score. The War Dragons want to tear down the Dominator & Mauler, but will they make the series 2-0? Or will Khan & Henare tie things up in the second?
The teams sort out and #Khanare just attacks! They TOSS Drilla then mug Takagi! The bell rings while the fans boo, but Khan & Henare continue to mug Takagi. They double whip, but Takagi grabs ropes!

Winners: Shingo Takagi & “Drilla” Dan Moloney, by pinfall
And with that, Unbound Company is 2-0 already! But will this defeat humble Henare and Khan once and for all? Can the rest of the Unbound continue this momentum through the night?
Wait, Drilla grabs the mic to address the fans. Drilla says in Japanese, “Everyone… I want to thank you. Because… I HAVE RENEWED WITH NJPW!” Even Takagi is shocked! We thought Drilla was taking his leave like Hiromu, but no! He’s staying right here! Drilla wants to keep running wild in NJPW, and he even wants in on New Japan Cup! The fans cheer that! Takagi even adds, “Oi, oi, oi! Whoever retires or quits, all we’re gonna do is keep on fighting in this ring!” The fans cheer that, too! Will this New Beginning lead to bigger and better things for the War Dragons, the Unbound Company, and NJPW as a whole?
NEVER Openweight Six Man Tag Team Championships: Bishamon & Boltin Oleg VS TMDK!
From falling short in the Tornado Ranbo to winning these titles on the Road to New Beginning, to then winning the best-of-three singles matches, Hirooki Goto, Yoshi-Hashi and the big man from Kazakhstan were able to #TurnItAllAround. But will they keep the momentum going here in Osaka? Or will Zack Sabre Jr, Ryohei Oiwa & Hartley Jackson prove The Mighty Don’t Kneel?

IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship #1 Contender’s Match: Gabe Kidd VS Andrade El Idolo!
The Unbound Company already leads 2-0 on the night, but this is much more than faction warfare. The Mad Man wants another shot at his friend and rival, Yota Tsuji, but The Benefactor just wants world domination. Andrade is also scheduled for a #1 contender’s match at AEW Grand Slam Australia, will he be bringing another golden ticket with him? Or will Gabe prove Andrade ain’t #WarReady?
The bell rings and the fans rally as the two stare down. Gabe smiles as the fans are on his side, but Andrade also smirks. Gabe then mocks the Ingobernables fist and makes it a middle finger. The two circle, tie up, and Andrade headlocks. Gabe powers up but can’t power out as Andrade holds tight. Gabe tries again and powers out of the hold, and the two RAM each other!

And with that, Andrade is now poised to go after Yota Tsuji’s other title. Will Andrade also secure his shot at the AEW World Championship and begin his world domination? Or will having a divided focus jeopardize both opportunities? Surprisingly, he shows respect to Gabe by holding out his hand. Gabe slaps it away and takes his leave instead. What will it take for The Mad Man to be back in the title conversation?
David Finlay w/ Gedo VS Callum Newman w/ Zane Jay!
This one has been a long time coming. The Rebel led his War Dogs against Will Ospreay’s United Empire and they won that first and most brutal Dog Pound Cage Match. But now, The Prince is in charge, and instead of vowing vengeance for the Aerial Assassin, he wants to prove that HE is the most ruthless man in New Japan! Will Callum dethrone the Savage King? Or will Finlay prove that NJPW will always need The Rebel?

Finlay lands on his feet and he brings Callum back up. X-PLEX on the apron! Callum flops back down, Finlay looms over him, but Zane Jay storms up.

Finlay goes back to Callum and he opens the gate. Finlay brings Callum back out to the crowd!
Finlay lifts Callum, and runs to POST BOMB him!! Callum writhes on the floor while the fans cheer Finlay! Finlay then lets the ring count handle this. Callum is still down at 9 of 20 but starts to sit up. Finlay tells the ref to hold on, and Finlay goes out to fetch Callum. Callum tries to grab at Abe-san but Finlay puts him in the ring. Finlay then lifts Callum, CANADIAN HAMMER! Cover, TWO! Callum survives but Finlay is perhaps more amused than anything. The fans continue to cheer Finlay on, and he drags Callum up for crossface forearms! Gedo cheers, the fans bark, and Finlay says one more! Crossface forearm!
Callum sputters but Finlay tells him this is why he’s the Savage King! Finlay bends fingers, JAMS them into the mat, then crossface- NO, Callum blocks the forearm!

OVERKILL!! And EXCALIBUR!! The fans rally for Finlay even harder but he sputters as he sits back up. Callum EXCALIBURS again!! Cover, but Callum picks Finlay up!? The fans boo as Callum is toying with Finlay now!
Callum undoes his wrist tape to show off the tattoo on his wrist: The crown of the United Empire! Finlay flips Callum off, but Callum kisses the crown before he LARIATS Finlay! Then Callum hits THE PRINCE’S CURSE! Cover, Callum wins!!
Winner: Callum Newman, by pinfall
Callum mocks the Too Sweet, then makes Finlay kiss the crown. The Prince stands over the Savage King, crowning himself the most dangerous man in NJPW! But will Callum look to truly take the throne for his own?
As for Finlay, Gedo is there as he sits up. The fans cheer Finlay on as he stands back up, and Finlay takes a deep bow! It was rumored, and it would seem those rumors were true. This is Finlay’s last match in NJPW for the foreseeable future! He hugs it out with Gedo, then even goes to commentary to say goodbye to his dysfunctional teammate, Hiromu, on commentary. But both men are on parallel paths as they go out into the great unknown. Where will The Rebel’s journey take him next?
Hiroshi Tanahashi goes to the ring!
President Ace brings a folder with him, and he takes this time to make a special announcement. He thanks the fans for selling out the arena tonight, and he has some good news! WrestleKingdom was also a great night with a sold out Tokyo Dome, also airing on Asahi Network TV for the first time in 20 years. The event and the broadcast were an immense success. Because of that success, he can make this announcement! On June 14th in Osaka-Jo Hall, Dominion will be on Japanese television NATIONWIDE! Because of that, Tanahashi hopes they can sell out Osaka-Jo, so make sure you all can either get your tickets or watch from home this Summer!
The fans are very happy to hear more big things are happening for Osaka and NJPW! Will Dominion be the biggest show of the Summer for 2026?
NEVER Openweight Championship: Aaron Wolf VS Ren Narita!
The gold medalist judoka went from debuting at WrestleKingdom 20 to winning this title on his first try! NJPW is now on #WolfTime, but the House of Torture looks to change that just as quickly! Will the Souled Out Son of Strong Style ruin Wolf’s career before it his rookie year is even over? Or will Wolf NEVER give in to the darkness?
Oh but of course The House attacks Wolf during his entrance! Douki, Sho, AND Yujiro Takahashi beat Wolf down on the ramp! The fans boo but Ren smiles ear to ear like the snake he is. Yujiro whips Wolf into railing! Then Sho & Douki whip Wolf into more railing! The ref can’t do anything as Dick Togo keeps him anchored in the corner, but this isn’t even a match yet anyway! The House finally puts Wolf in the ring and the bell rings! The ref must not have any idea what was happening to let this start! Ren goes up, HELL- NO, Wolf dodges the knee! Fireman’s carry and DEATH VALLEY BOMB!
The fans fire up for Wolf as he reels Ren in, but Ren grabs the ref by the shirt! The ref slaps Ren’s hand away, but Ren BOOTS the ref during the ANGLE SLAM! Cover, but no one is there to count! Instead, The House just attacks Wolf again! The fans boo but they whip Wolf to the corner. Sho runs up, but Wolf CLOBBERS him! SAYANAGI for Yujiro! SAYANAGI for Douki! SAYANAGI again for Douki! Wolf roars and the fans fire up! But then Dick SHOVES Wolf! Wolf just gets mad, but Ren LOW BLOWS Wolf! The fans boo but Ren hits the DOUBLE CROSSER! Cover, TWO!! Wolf survives and Ren is upset with the ref!
But Ren is just distracting the ref from the SPOILER’S CHOKER! The fans boo but Wolf is vulnerable! Ren goes up, up, and HELL’S GULLOTINE!! Cover, REN WINS!!
Winner: Ren Narita, by pinfall (NEW NEVER Openweight Champion)
It took the entire House to do it, but they brought down the big bad Wolf! They even stand Wolf back up so Ren can CLOBBER Wolf with the belt! And they stomp away on Wolf, until Hontai rushes out here! Too little too late, unfortunately. Will NJPW ever learn to NEVER trust the House of Torture?

But wait! The lights go down, and on the tron is a message from The Demand! Ricochet says, “Hello to all of my Frequent Fliers out there, this is your captain speaking, and we are The Demand. And The Demand will be taking over Trenton, New Jersey, February 27th for New Beginning. A New Beginning where I will be calling out Taiji Ishimori, a legend in the Junior Heavyweight Division, Mr. Bone Soldier himself. Taiij Ishimori, listen, if you’re man enough, come get some. But that is not the only surprise that The Demand will be bringing to Trenton. No, no, no.”
Bishop Kaun says it has been a couple years since their World Tag League debut. They’re no longer just beasts, they’re sharks! And they smell blood in the water! Toa Liona says he can taste it and he can see it. The champs in the ring are just minnows, and the sharks are circling them! GOA has their eyes on the IWGP Tag Team Championships! Ricochet says remember: When you’re in Demand, you can make demands. And if you don’t meet their demands, you get put DOWN! The video ends and the Knock Out Brothers have the mics to respond. “Nostalgic seeing those guys. Pretty interesting. Seems Ishimori and KOB are all going to America!”
The fans cheer and Yuto says they’ll play, make money, and get high. Don’t think, just feel! Let’s get high! Tch tch, BIG UP! AKA challenges accepted! But will the Unbound Company turn their trip to the US into world domination?
IWGP Heavyweight Championship: Yota Tsuji VS Jake Lee!
While Unbound Company and United Empire are 2-2, this is the one that truly matters! The Gene Blast became Double Champion at WrestleKingdom, and even brought back the classic title to make a statement. But will Yota’s vision for NJPW’s future continue on? Or will the Silent Jester have the last laugh?
The introductions are made by President Tanahashi, THE belt is raised, and we see who truly stands atop the mountain!

PLAY BY PLAY
Tony Schiavone is in the ring.
Schiavone welcomes us to Dynamite live from Southern California, and he says we’re starting with a special face-to-face. First, welcome out The Cleaner, Kenny Omega! The fans cheer as indeed, The Best Bout Machine makes his way out to the ring, complete with pyro! And now, welcome out Swerve Strickland! The fans cheer again as The Realest makes his way to the ring, Prince Nana always in the groove. Schiavone notes how last week, things broke down during Kenny’s match with Andrade El Idolo. To be honest, we’ve seen the looks, we’ve felt the tension, and it goes as far back as Maximum Carnage.
Schiavone wants to start with Swerve, as it seems most of the tension is coming from him. What’s going on? Swerve says he has stuff to get off his chest. It’s been lingering for awhile. Five years ago, Kenny Omega was on top of the game, on top of the industry. So conveniently, that was the last time Kenny had the AEW World Championship, as well. Not only that, but Kenny was The Cleaner, the Best Bout Machine, and some even called him the God of Pro-Wrestling. Everyone outside of AEW was itching for a chance to face off with Kenny, Swerve included. Then in 2022, Swerve finally arrives to AEW, makes it to the top, becomes world champion in just TWO YEARS.
But where is Kenny? Where’s The Cleaner? Where’s the Best Bout Machine? While Swerve is busy becoming the most undeniable man in AEW, Kenny was nowhere to be found. Swerve says don’t get him wrong, he saw Kenny pop up here and there, even showing up in the Tokyo Dome. Hell, Swerve even teamed with that guy last year in Anarchy in the Arena. But while Swerve was at the top of AEW, Kenny was either laid up in a hospital bed or suspended. Seems like a false prophet of wrestling if you ask Swerve. But during Kenny’s absence, the congregation starts looking for someone else to follow, a new prophet.
Now, Swerve won’t call himself a god or nothing, but everywhere they go, the “church” sings, “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” And now, Kenny suddenly wants to march back in here, feeling the best he has in years! Kenny’s all healthy and good, and inserts himself into the title circle with the rest of them. It almost feels like Kenny was using his EVP power. Is that what he’s trying to do? Cuz Swerve had to fight with a couple EVPs the last couple years, a couple idiots that like to stroke their own egos, abuse their power, and Swerve ended that last Summer. So Swerve doesn’t care if they call Kenny a god or not, if he uses his power to step ahead of Swerve, Swerve puts you down.
Kenny picks up a mic and asks, “Are we good? Can I talk now?” Kenny will be the first to correct Swerve on one detail: Kenny never called himself the God of Pro-Wrestling; that’s a name the people gave him. And while Kenny never erected altars or asked the people to pray to him or praise him, they still made signs, wore the shirts, and cheered him on. The fans respect AEW as the place where the best wrestle, and they know that if they see Kenny Omega in a match, they are going to get the absolute best outta him! Now if that’s the power of a god or not, that’s in the eye of the beholder.
But Kenny takes the fans’ faith as a great responsibility. For them to believe in Kenny for this one final journey to the top of the mountain and do it the right way… Swerve, you ask the question, “Whose House?” It might be Swerve’s House, but to question Kenny Omega…? The lights are on, but nobody’s home. And if Swerve needs someone else to burn the house down, well, Kenny’s got a friend who’s got the experience. And yeah, Swerve’s right, a bit of the old Kenny is feeling good. He’s shown up and shown out. And Kenny is feeling like championship material, and that he doesn’t need EVP power to do it because he’s been getting wins.
And if not for Swerve last week, Kenny would’ve had plans for Australia, he would’ve had plans for Revolution, and he might even be champion right now! But Kenny knows how much Swerve believes in himself. Kenny isn’t asking Swerve to believe in Kenny. Kenny is asking something rather simple: he’s asking for a fight! Kenny sees the way Swerve looks at Kenny with disrespect. Kenny’s seen how Swerve whispers sweet nothings in Nana’s ears like he has something planned. But Kenny isn’t giving Swerve the chance. This ends and this ends now. If Swerve wants the match, he’s got it. If this is about padding records, then that’s what they’ll do.
So, Swerve… Kenny will make it simple. Accept the challenge, or yield. Swerve says Kenny must be scared, he must be nervous. Because Swerve’s generation is already ahead of Kenny’s. They’re lapping him! But if Kenny wants to go face to face with The Most Dangerous- Oh, right, Kenny totally forgot about that! The Most Dangerous Man on the Planet! The one that gives everyone the heebie jeebies! Well if you ask Kenny, it ain’t Swerve. In fact, the Most Dangerous Man in AEW would have to be Brody King. The fans bark for Brody, but Swerve says what he was going to say was… How about Swerve puts Kenny in the hospital bed, and this time Kenny won’t be getting back up.
Kenny says that’s an idea. SLAP! The fans fire up seeing that! Swerve scowls and he takes off his jacket while Kenny takes off his watch and rolls up his sleeves. Swerve says Kenny’s made his choice.

Kenny ROCKS Swerve, follows him along, and THROWS him into the LED! V-TRIGGER into the LED! The fans fire up as Kenny takes off his shirt and stands tall over Swerve. Then Kenny drags Swerve up, Electric Chair Lifts, but Swerve fights free!
Swerve SPEARS Kenny off the stage, and they CRASH DOWN THROUGH A TABLE! The fans lose their minds while security hurries out here. They make sure both men are okay before helping them out of the wreckage. The Cleaner and the Realest are still raging, what will it take to settle the score?
Backstage interview with Kyle Fletcher & Don Callis.
Renee Paquette is with the Protostar and The Jackal, noting we are just moments away from a first-time-ever match. Fletcher is challenging Tommaso Ciampa for the TNT Championship, but we’re also just days away from Grand Slam: Australia. There’s a lot of pressure on Kyle, but- Callis says no, Kyle is not under pressure, The Don Callis Family gives the pressure. Kyle will beat Ciampa, then he’ll go on to a hero’s welcome in Australia. Callis asks Kyle how he’s feeling, and Kyle says it’s just as Don says, Kyle lives for this. Kyle loves the pressure, he thrives under the bright lights, and tonight, he takes his TNT Championship back. Kyle will then go home and get his hero’s welcome.
But one question for Don: Will he let Kyle do this on his own? Wait, Callis gets to sit back with feet up on the commentary desk as he watches the great Kyle Fletcher? Yes, Kyle would love that. Callis would also love that! See you out there! Kyle heads out and Callis says that’s like the son he’s never had. But then will Don be a proud papa when the Aussie Arrow hits the mark and brings home the gold? Or will Ciampa make sure no one will survive?

Winner: Kyle Fletcher, by pinfall (NEW AEW TNT Champion)
The Aussie Arrow would not be denied his epic homecoming! He fought beyond his limits and finally has this title back! Renee Paquette is here to interview Kyle, and she gives him a congratulations on having this title back. He was very confident coming into tonight, said he wanted to do it on his own, and that he did. What is next for Kyle? Kyle says he made it very clear earlier when he said he was coming home with THE TNT Championship! So that is exactly what he plans to do. Despite being all banged up, he will show up in Sydney, Australia as champion! And he will receive the hero’s welcome he deserved last year!
And because Kyle IS the Greatest TNT Champion of All Time, he will defend the title in his hometown, against anybody from anywhere, he does not care! Because he is THE GREATEST TNT CHAMPION TO EVER LIVE! But then reach for the sky, boy! Mark Briscoe is here, mic in hand! Briscoe asks Kyle if he heard that correctly. Now, listen, son, you’ve come a long way. It wasn’t long ago that Kyle was a mop-headed young man trying to figure things out. And now look at him! A TWO-TIME TNT Champion! Congrats, big dog, you deserve it. Kyle says he knows all that. But that being said, Kyle’s also got a damn big mouth, and his ass might not be able to cash the checks that the mouth is writing!
Because there’s history here, Kyle! They done battled six times now, split things down the middle at 3-3! And hey, man, Briscoe can be rather impatient, so he’ll be happy to give Kyle home court advantage for game seven. That is, if Kyle ain’t scared. Kyle says no, no, no, he is sick and tired of Briscoe’s dumb little face! They might be 3-3, but Kyle is sick and tired of seeing him in the ring. But… Kyle did say he’d face anyone from anywhere… So CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! BUT…! Number seven deserves to be bigger and better than all the rest, and Kyle wants it to be the final chapter in their story. So whoever wins in Sydney will be the very best.
Briscoe says he loves to reach for they sky? Then how about they reach for the TNT Championship! If Briscoe wants Game 7, then it’ll be a LADDER MATCH! Briscoe indeed loves that! The final battle between Briscoe and Fletcher has been made, but who will truly stand tall as these two fight to end it all?

AEW shares footage from after last Wednesday.
Don Callis regrouped with Andrade El Idolo and said he was very happy. They should celebrate! Andrade beat Kenny Omega! Just like Callis knew he would! Everything is coming up Don Callis Family! Andrade and Callis shake hands on that, and Callis says this is how they do it! They’re a team! They’re a family! And Callis knew Andrade was the man to take out Kenny! Andrade is back in AEW with the DCF because of the unfinished business. And it got settled 1-2-3! And Andrade IS the next AEW World Champion! Hangman Page, in Australia, you’re gonna find out that when you get in the way of Andrade & The Don Callis Family, you get run over.
Andrade thanks Callis for believing in him. And Hangman, you stupid little idiot, you will learn that you are just in his way.
Hangman responds.
“At Grand Slam: Australia, I thought it would be Kenny and I again. I wanted that, I needed it, because if I’m going to challenge for the world championship, I need to know I can beat the man that I once beat for it. But that’s not what I’m getting. In Australia, I’m wrestling Andrade El Idolo. He’s one of the best wrestlers in the entire world, I’ll give him that. But in Australia, Andrade, no te quitas los pantalones <you won’t be taking off those pants>.” Instead, Andrade will meet his end. See you Down Under. The Millennial Cowboy has issued his warning, but will El Idolo heed it? Or will Andrade make sure to slip into the DMs?
JetSpeed speaks.
Mike Bailey says they are THE AEW World Trios Champions, and they’re looking for challengers. But right now, Hangman Page is set to win the AEW Men’s World Champion. Kevin Knight adds that it is admirable that Hangman is a champion still looking for more gold. So maybe JetSpeed should do the same. It could be the tag team championships, or considering Knight beat a former TNT Champion, maybe some singles belts. Bailey says the important thing to note is that in 2026, #JetSetRodeo is coming for all the gold! Then when and where will Bailey & Knight wrangle themselves some new golden opportunities?

But Dez DROPKICKS Matt! Dez goes up, up, and SUPER SHOOTING STAR ATTACK! All six men are down on the outsides and the fans are loving “A E DUB!” as Dynamite goes picture in picture.

The Rascalz mug Nick, then Myron ROCKS him. Myron bumps Nick off buckles, then follows Nick to another corner. Myron bumps Nick off buckles again, then off even more buckles. Tag to Dez and he runs in for an UPPERCUT! Dez wrenches Nick’s arm, whips, but Nick reverses to ELBOW Dez away! Quen tags in and he LARIATS Nick! Quen stomps away, then he makes it the beat, “Stomps, stomps, stomps!” “What we want?” “Stomps, stomps, stomps!” “What we need?”
Quen stomps away at the ropes, then stops as the ref counts. Quen drags Nick around, bends him against the ropes, and stops as the ref counts 4. Quen stalks Nick but Nick fires back! Quen KNEES low, puts Nick in the corner, and RAMS him! Zay tags in, he stomps away on Nick, but stops as the ref counts. Zay taunts Matt, but Nick ROCKS him! Nick ROCKS Quen, but Zay CHOPS Nick!

Quen stops at 4 and Dynamite returns to single picture.
Quen tags Zay and Private Party brings Nick around to double whip. Nick handsprings through the double hip toss to then give Private Party a meeting of the minds! Nick blocks a shot, CHOPS Zay, then goes up to “LUCHA LIBRE~!” FLYING ARM-DRAG RANA COMBO! The fans fire up and Nick crawls for his corner, hot tag to Matt!

Quen is up, but he gets added to a DOUBLE NORTHERN LIGHTS! The fans fire up for Matt and he WRECKS The Rascalz!
Matt skins the cat, SLICED BREAD on Zay! Quen kicks low, gives a Michael Jackson HEEHEE before he whips Matt. Matt reverses, runs in, but is put on the apron! So he just DIAMOND DUSTS Dez! Nick gives Quen the SHINING WIZARD, GAMANGIRI, ELBOW and then BULLDOG LARIAT for Private Party! The fans fire up with Nick, Matt joins back in, and they go up the corners! The Bucks coordinate, MACHO ELBOW AND SWANTON IN STEREO! Cover, TWO! The fans rally as this continues, and we see Hook watching from the skybox. What could the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil be planning?
Matt tags Nick before he drags Zay up. Matt puts Zay on the ropes, Nick DOUBLE STOMPS him into the – RANA?! Quen runs in and PELES Nick! Zay WRECKS Dez, then Quen fireman’s carries Nick! Zay goes up top, DOUBLE STOMP and FLYING FLATLINER in one go! Then the LAWN DART CUTTER! Cover, but Dez breaks it!

Fireman’s carry on Zay, and Myron puts him on the ropes for a DRAPING FLATLINER! Matt feints superkick to DDT Myron! Quen clinches for a SIDE EFFECT!
Nick SUPERKICKS Quen! Zay ducks the spin kick to SUPERKICK back! But Nick kips up to SUPERKICK! The fans are all fire dup as FOUR men kip up, just to DOUBLE DOUBLE LARIAT all down!

Winners: The Young Bucks, by pinfall (NEW #1 Contenders to the AEW World Tag Team Championships)
Even with the wild card in the mix, Matt & Nick busted out a Superkick Party to win their way back to the- Oh, wait, FTR is here to interrupt the celebration. The fans boo as Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood wheel Stokely Hathaway out here. They let #BigStoke sit at ringside while Dax & Cash step into the ring. Dax has a mic to say they come in peace, just give them a moment. Relax, relax. The two greatest tag teams of a generation, EIGHTEEN world tag team championship reigns between them, and if Dax is being honest, there was a time that Dax was a bit jealous of The Bucks.
How does it feel to know now that as far as greatest tag teams of all time go, The Bucks are sitting comfortably at second place? But Dax pulls the same gag where he doesn’t let The Bucks answer, because Dax knows that if it was him, and his rivals were considered the absolute best of all time, it would bother him. But think about it like this: Every company that FTR has worked for, they have been successful. In the case of The Bucks, in order to be successful, they had to go and make their own company. Does that bother them? Because Dax- SUPERKICK! Then SUPERKICK for Cash! The fans cheer and Stokely is shocked!
The Bucks hold up the belts, and then they decide to go say hey to Stoke. Stoke can’t scoot his wheelchair away in time, and he has to pretend he’s happy to see them. The Bucks smile, and then they feint hitting Stoke with superkicks. They let him have the belts to hold onto, because it’s only a matter of time. When and where will we see AEW’s greatest tag teams fight to prove they’re THE best team ever?
AEW Women’s World Championship Strap Match: Kris Statlander VS Thekla!
The Galaxy’s Greatest had a plan for what tonight’s match would be, but then those plans changed when The Triangle of Madness insisted on attacking her and beating her down. But The Toxic Spider using a leather belt to whip her inspired #BigStatDaddy into upping the ante. Now these two will be inseparable as they fight to survive! But will Thekla be another casualty of the Cosmic Killer? Or will she turn the leather strap into her sinister web?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who truly beats the other!
Kris is the one bringing the strap and she already has it around her wrist. Thekla straps in on her end and the bell rings. Both women gather up some slack as they tug-o-war. The fans rally for Kris as she reels Thekla in, and Thekla ends up dropping to her knees. Thekla wants Kris to take it easy, then she narrowly avoids getting lashed! Thekla slides out of the ring but Kris reminds her she can’t go far! Kris drags Thekla back and BOOTS Thekla down! Kris then whips Thekla to the corner, then whips her to the other corner! Kris LARIATS in the corner, then uses the strap in the short arm LARIAT! The fans cheer while Thekla sputters.
Kris drags Thekla by her arm all around the ring! The fans cheer as Kris just YANKS Thekla over. Kris talks trash, then she stomps Thekla. Kris drags Thekla along, wanting Thekla to get some rugburn from the mat. Thekla bails out of the ring again but Kris follows. Thekla LASHES Kris in the face! Then LASHES her on the back! Kris KNEES low in return! And POSTS Thekla! Kris snarls, winds up, but Thekla ducks! Strap lashes post but Kris pursues Thekla. Kris gathers up that slack, but Thekla dodges! Strap hits apron, but then Kris keeps Thekla from sliding into the ring! Kris BOOTS Thekla down again and the fans fire up!
Kris drags Thekla up, and up, and then whips her into railing! The fans cheer as Kris drags Thekla back up. Kris scoops Thekla to hit a BACKBREAKER! Kris stands tall as the fans cheer her on. Kris then pushes Thekla around, and whips her at the steps! But Thekla jumps up, and she YANKS Kris into the steel! Then Thekla flips Kris off, and shouts, “This is MY game! This is MY show!” Kris is busted open from how she hit the steps and Thekla mocks the blood dripping out. Thekla makes the camera look right at it, then she ELBOWS away on that wound while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Thekla DIGS her elbow into the forehead and Kris can only endure! Thekla BITES Kris’s forehead, then pushes her down. Kris sputters but Thekla looms over her from the apron. Kris CLUBS at Thekla but Thekla kicks her down. Thekla then goes through the corner to pull Kris into the post! And YANK her into the post again! Thekla drags Kris in, CLUBS the bloody wound, then wipes her hands off on the ref! The ref is disgusted but Thekla then gathers up slack to LASH Kris! Kris writhes but Thekla CHOKES her! Kris flails and sputters as Thekla thrashes her around! Thekla drags Kris up and snapmares her for the basement SUPERKICK! Cover, TWO!
Kris snarls as she toughs it out, but Thekla gathers up more slack. Thekla LASHES Kris again, and again, then GAGS her with the strap! Kris endures as Thekla almost has a crossface with the strap! Kris fights around, fights to her feet, and snapmares free as Dynamite returns to single picture! Then Kris RAMS Thekla into a corner! Kris puts Thekla up top but Thekla BOOTS her away! Thekla wraps Kris up for a HANGING HEADSCISSORS! Kris endures, claws at the legs, but Thekla finally lets her go. The fans are torn but Thekla grins. But Kris wraps the strap around her for a CHOKNE!! The fans fire up while Kris asks how Thekla likes it!
But Thekla reaches back to GOUGE the eyes! Kris staggers around, and Thekla uses the straps to yank Kris into a HOTSHOT! Kris falls but Thekla gets her through the ropes. Thekla CHOKES Kris, then BOOTS her back down! Thekla grins, goes up the corner, and CROSSBODIES! Cover, TWO! Kris survives but Thekla keeps on her with a LASHING! And LASHING! Thekla hits the Spider Stance, but Kris YANKS the arms out! Kris SUPERKICKS Thekla down! Kris then SHOVES Thekla into buckles, and UPPERCUTS! Kris runs to BOOT WASH Thekla! Kris reels Thekla in for the SNAP POWERSLAM! Cover, TWO!
Thekla survives and Kris is furious. Kris drags Thekla to a drop zone then climbs up top. But Thekla LASHES Kris again! Thekla goes up to the very top, but Kris ROCKS her! Thekla sits on the top rope, Kris HEADBUTTS her, but Thekla sits up to LASH her again and again! Thekla grins and brings Kris up, SPIDER SUPERPLEX! Kris writhes while Thekla hangs on the corner. Thekla then sits back up, but Kris rises up! And LASHES Thekla on the back! And again, and again! Then while in the Tree of Woe! The fans fire up as Kris then gut wrenches Thekla off the corner. Thekla fights free, winds up, but Kris dodges! DISCUS LARIAT! Cover, TWO!

She distracts the ref so that Julia Hart can slither in! But Kris dodges to LASH Julia! And she LASHES Skye! But Thekla reels Kris in for the SPIDER SPEAR!! Thekla then traps Kris’ hands with the strap! Kris sits up, into the CURB STOMP!! Cover, THEKLA WINS!!
Winner: Thekla, by pinfall (NEW AEW Women’s World Champion)
Even after all the blood, sweat and tears, it still took the Triangle of Madness to tear down The Cosmic Killer! The Toxic Spider has god, the Sisters of Sin beat up Kris, and Kris is all alone because Willow & Harley are already in Australia! BUT WAIT! Jamie Hayter & Alex Windsor are here! The Brawling Birds are armed with hammers and pipes! They scare off The Triangle of Madness, but Thekla still shows off the belt. Will things only get more and more toxic in AEW from here on out?
My Thoughts:
A great episode of Dynamite here as not only a go-home to Grand Slam: Australia but just in general. Great promo from Kenny and Swerve to put this grudge into perspective, and then great brawl to come of it and set up their match for next week. Very good promos from Andrade and Callis, as well as from Hangman, to hype up their match at Grand Slam. That match could probably go both ways, but I would think it is Hangman facing MJF at Revolution given their history and how World’s End went. Good promo from JetSpeed to say they’re gonna aim for other titles, a rare Three Man Power Trip could be an interesting story.
Great stuff with Don Callis Family, Death Riders and Conglomeration to hype up a lot of the Grand Slam card. That was a great Six Man Tag for Death Riders to get a lick back over DCF, but with Moxley scoring the fall, I wonder if this means things are now in Konosuke’s favor to win in Australia. Again, it’d make a lot of sense if they then A) have Konosuke and Okada fight to reunify the Unified Championship and B) have Death Riders mutiny and reject Moxley. Though, the latter might not be so clear anymore as Death Riders are helping the former War Dogs integrate with AEW.
Great tag of Garcia & Connors VS Cassidy & Roddy, and they were able to build multiple stories at once. Roddy ditching Cassidy has got to finally get it through to The Conglomeration that Roddy does not want any part of them. And then Cassidy overcoming the odds thanks to Darby is great for building another Darby VS Gabe match. But then to make sure the go-home match is a wash, Toni got a good promo in, only for Death Riders to beat Cassidy down and humiliate Mina. I still wonder if Mina “accidentally” costs Toni & Cassidy their hair. That mixed tag match will still be a lot of fun, and the result alone will be reason to watch.
Then we got a lot of great surprises in all the title related matches. Fletcher VS Ciampa was an instant classic, PPV level even, but at the same time, Fletcher winning out felt a little heavy-handed. Obviously this leads to Fletcher VS Briscoe 7 being made, but at least it’ll be a ladder match. That’ll be an awesome match, it could really go either way, and yeah, this better be the end of things for this feud for like, a solid year. And at this point, maybe it should be Kyle retaining. For one, they’re gonna be in Australia, the Australian fans should get to cheer Kyle as well as Harley & Willow. For another, Kyle and Ciampa can have a rematch at Revolution to do even crazier stuff than tonight.
Private Party returning for the Triple Threat tag is great, I don’t know why they weren’t back sooner unless it was for a legit injury or two. But then The Bucks still winning out is a shame for Private Party, but whatever, we’re getting Bucks VS FTR whatever number we’re on. No idea who wins out, but it’ll be another great match. And then Kris VS Thekla was a great main event with that strap match. Side note: AEW is doing the overrun so much for Dynamite, and now Grand Slam is gonna be 2.5 hours minimum, AEW really just wants to do a three hour TV show, huh? And I figured Thekla would win because of Julia & Skye. Classic Heel stuff, and now we can definitely get a rematch for Revolution. The Brawling Birds showing up was a nice touch, I wonder if they and Sisters of Sin have a match next week.
My Score: 8.9/10
