Back Alley Brawl: Sam Gradwell VS Kenny Williams!

Well, it may be happening in BT Sports Studio, but just trust the match name. This is going to be a gritty, knockdown, drag out, and all around brutal fight! Wil the Thunderstorm finally shut Kenny up? Or will the Scum of the Earth survive in the scummiest way possible?

Gradwell doesn’t even wait for Kenny to get in the ring, he goes after him at the ramp! Gradwell DECKS Kenny, RAMS him into the apron, CLUBS him down, then drags him up to TOSS him into the barriers!

Kenny wants mercy but Gradwell just rains down hands! Gradwell wants Kenny to tell his son where his hair’s gone! Gradwell then dumps trash on Kenny, before he SMASHES the can on him! Fans want that “One More Time!” but Gradwell drags Kenny up to TOSS him along the way. Gradwell drags Kenny up again, “You will regret this!” But then Kenny RAMS Gradwell into barriers! Gradwell tumbles over, but that masked man shows himself again. Kenny tries to see if he’s seeing things. Kenny leaps, but Gradwell watches him! Gradwell pops Kenny around but Kenny slips off to POST him!

Gradwell clutches his shoulder while Kenny crawls away. Kenny goes under the ring but Gradwell hurries after him. Gradwell drags Kenny out, but Kenny BLASTS Gradwell with a fire extinguisher! Fans boo while Gradwell tries to clear his eyes. Kenny SMASHES Gradwell with the extinguisher itself! And then JAMS him with a chair! And BOOTS him onto the steps! Kenny stands on Gradwell’s back with the chair, then jumps and jumps and jumps to stomp the chair into Gradwell! Kenny drags Gradwell off the steps and hurries to grab some things. The trash can isn’t good enough, Kenny finds a toolbox!

Kenny opens the box, but there was nothing in it. The fans laugh, but Kenny swings on Gradwell with the box itself! Gradwell ducks that, then scoops Kenny to SLAM Kenny on the trash can! Fans fire up while Kenny writhes and crawls. Gradwell stalks Kenny, drags him up and RAMS him into the barriers! Gradwell stomps Kenny, drags him along the way, and fans chant, “Mess him up, Gradwell, mess him up!” Gradwell brings out a TABLE! Fans are fired up as Gradwell sets the table up by the ring.

Kenny drags Gradwell up to ROCK him with a forearm. Kenny stomps Gradwell down, and he tells Gradwell he doesn’t have killer instinct.

Winner: Sam Gradwell, by pinfall

The Thunderstorm is victorious! But it is clear that there’s still someone else who wants Kenny to suffer. And that man jumps into the ring! Kenny runs away but this mystery man is stalking him! Who is this man in the mask? And what grudge does he have against Kenny Cockroach?

Eddie Dennis speaks.

“Wild animals need to be broken in before they can be of any use. And that’s exactly what we were doing, ’til you came along.” Mark Andrews stuck his nose in Symbiosis business again. But anyway, Dennis wants Wild Boar and his new ally to take on Symbiosis in a tag team match. “They will run your vehicle clean off its road to revenge before you ever meet your destination.” Will T-Bone & Primate wreck Wild Boar & Andrews once and for all?

Emilia McKenzie VS Stevie Turner!

Meiko Satomura’s protégé didn’t take kindly to the Fourth Dimensional Star implying the Final Boss is just trying to keep her down. Will #SuplexMillie prove that it’s still much better to be second place than last?

The bell rings and fans sing for Millie. Millie and Turner tie up, go around, and Millie puts Turner in a corner. The ref counts, Millie lets off and Turner slowly returns. Fans rally as the two go again. They go around, Millie powers Turner back but Turner pulls hair to put Millie in the corner. Millie shoves Turner away but they tie up again.

Deep stack cover, TWO!! Turner is beside herself but she looms over Millie. Turner drags Millie up, turns her, but no neckbreaker! GERMAN SUPLEX! Then a SPEAR! Cover, Millie wins!

Winner: Emilia McKenzie, by pinfall

The win streak continues! Will Millie build the momentum needed to prove she’s worthy of an NXT UK Women’s Championship match?

Isla Dawn speaks.

“Meiko guided the way, and Meiko.” But what happens when the light is extinguished? Isla looks forward to welcoming Meiko into the world of darkness! And when they leave, Isla will be the NEW NXT UK Women’s Champion! “Dusk will fall, but Dawn will not break.” This match happens in two weeks! But just what is a World of Darkness match?

NXT has sent quite a few names to NXT UK!

In the wake of Roderick Strong visiting BT Sports Studio and both A-Kid and Nathan Frazer making their way stateside, Ivy Nile, Lash Legend, Von Wagner and Damon Kemp all arrived in London! What can we expect from this batch of Americans? Well, as for Von Wagner, he chose not to sign autographs, and even got in Saxon Huxley’s way. The Divine Beast called Von a “big stupid man,” but will he soon be in Wagner’s World?

Xia Brookside and Eliza Alexander speak.

Xia is SO happy because so many amazing things happened! Eliza told us all someone would get battered, and that’s what happened. So next week, Xia will be in action, and someone will get BATTERED! Did she say that right? Yes, just about. But will Daddy’s Girl really be able to deal out damage just like her new friend?

Dragunov VS Devlin II is in the works!

The Czar and the Irish Ace tore each other up in their Empty Arena Match, but just imagine what they’ll do on the historic 200th episode! That will be in three weeks, but next week is the contract signing! What happens when combustible elements meet face to face once again?

NXT UK Tag Team Championships Best 2 Out of 3 Falls: Moustache Mountain VS Ashton Smith & Oliver Carter!

Trent Seven’s controversial way of helping Tyler Bate win sparked two singles matches that then split 50-50. But to settle the score, one team must score twice! Will the Artful Dodger have another way to bend the rules in favor of himself and the Big Strong Boy? Or will the Hottest Tag Team Under the Sun become the Freshest Tag Team Champions in NXT UK?

Seven’s been saying that a win is a win, but this is a hard pill to swallow for Bate. They’re still on top, but is Moustache Mountain going to fall apart all on its own?

My Thoughts:

What a great episode for NXT UK! Though, the one disappointing thing was that the “Back Alley Brawl” was not in a back alley. Though, I suppose a “Street Fight” is never really in a street so I can’t really criticize it. But I was hoping we were going to get an NXT UK cinematic match on a set that looks like a grungy back alley. As a Street Fight type goes, this was pretty good stuff, and it makes sense Gradwell wins. Clearly the real main attraction was the man in the orange mask. The mask looks cool, and I am betting Amir Jordan is the one wearing it. Amir taking on a persona to exact his revenge on Kenny is exactly what I was hoping for, that’ll be a great next chapter for Kenny.

Good match out of Millie and Turner, and naturally Millie wins because she is still on that slow burn towards the title. Good promos and vignettes for all the other stuff. I was hoping Dennis was going to make it a Dog Collar Tag Match, but clearly the collar is being saved for Dennis VS Boar in the blow-off. Good promo from Isla Dawn to basically make it official, the “World of Darkness” is the stipulation. Maybe this will be more cinematic? Devlin VS Dragunov II is happening, and wow I forgot we were approaching 200 episodes. That match is going to be awesome, as all NXT UK title matches are. Being it’s the 200th, that title match could go either way.

Xia is very excited to “batter” someone like Eliza did, but I have a feeling she won’t batter anyone. Eliza might help Xia cheat to win and then Xia will just look like she did something. We’re getting even more talent exchanges between NXT UK and NXT USA, which is cool, but also feels like this is the brand split that WWE is ending. NXT UK is about to get 2.0’d, aka screwed up all to hell, and that is going to be very sad. But at least we got an amazing tag title main event. That match went as I expected in all the right ways, and maybe even beyond my expectations. It was very fitting that Moustache Mountain had to make the comeback, and that Seven had to cheat again. I can’t be sure which way they go. Bate VS Seven would be pretty awesome, though…

My Score: 8.6/10

What will The Cleaner have to say to The Elite?

Finally, Kenny Omega returns to AEW! But given how his friends, The Young Bucks, gave Tony Khan a piledriver, will his homecoming be a dour one?

PLAY BY PLAY

Tony Khan speaks.

“Welcome to AEW Dynamite. I’m here live in Jacksonville, Florida, and I’ll be producing tonight’s show here in the offices of the Jaguars. I wish I could be live there in Winnipeg for Kenny Omega’s return in his hometown tonight at a perfect time. Unfortunately I’m not cleared to leave Jacksonville, Florida, due to the actions of AEW’s Executive Vice Presidents, Matthew & Nicholas Jackson, and the reinstated Jack Perry.” Something’s going wonky with Tony’s video as he explains the head and neck injuries suffered… And then The Bucks cut in to say they’re “losing” Tony. Technical difficulties. Sorry, TK, they lost connection.

But hey, Tony may not be here, but the Bucks are. And some of you may be asking, how is that cool after what they did last week? How are they not fired? Well, see, iron clad contracts, with a founder’s clause. They won’t get into the details, but let’s just say that they and their colleagues are not going anywhere. And in those same details, it says that if Tony Khan cannot physically be at an event, the EVPs would succeed him. In other words, The Bucks are in charge now! With that said, they’re going to run the new show open! It’s all Elite, as in all Bucks, all Jack and all Okada! They said they wanted to change the world, is that change just more of themselves?

Swerve Strickland is here!

Winnipeg cheers as Prince Nana leads the way for the AEW World Champion! Swerve takes the mic to say, “What’s going on, everybody? Three matches, three shows, in one week. That is the type of champion that All Elite Wrestling deserves, and that is the type of champion that Swerve said he was always gonna be.” The fans cheer that! Swerve says what AEW does not deserve are selfish, greedy, childish, power hungry EVPs that think they can just throw their weight around without any kind of consequences. Swerve stands on his words: What the Bucks did was a b*tch move. Now that’ll be handled at some point, but Swerve will get to business.

Who is going to be Swerve’s opponent for Double or Nothing? The fans ask “WHO? WHO? WHO?” and Swerve says he doesn’t know. Winnipeg doesn’t know. But whoever it is, come, present yourself. But wipe your feet before you step into whose house? “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” But then The Bucks interrupt on the tron. They tell the champ congrats. But guess who else are champs: The Bucks! And uh, they also wanted to stop by because something else has been bothering them. It seems that success has gone to Swerve’s head. The first time he talks after winning the big one, and he badmouths his bosses, the EVPs, on national television, and using curse words?

The network hated that, that is a fine. And maybe Swerve just needs a dose of humility. How do you do that? Well, how about The Bucks arrange the very best, the perfect opponent, for Swerve at Double or Nothing? This man happens to be one of the best Canadian pro-wrestlers of all time. He’s a former champion, and hasn’t been around. But he’s waiting at the go position, ready to meet Swerve! Hit the music in three, two, one. GO! It’s… Christian Cage?! The fans are a bit torn as they were hoping for a different Canadian star, but The Patriarch leads Mother Shayna, Nick Wayne & Killswitch/Luchasaurus to the ring.

Christian gets a mic as he goes up onto the apron. He steps inside, Shayna Wayne by his side, but Nick and Killswitchasaurus lurking outside. There are fans who cheer on Christian, and then he sucker punches Swerve with the mic!! Christian fires off hands and knocks Swerve down, and Nana can only cower in a corner! But Swerve gets up to fire back! And he DECKS Nick! And he BOOTS Killswitch! But then Shayna gets in Swerve’s face. Killswitchasaurus turns Swerve around to HEADBUTT him! And he CLOBBERS Nana! Christian snatches the world title, drags Swerve up, KILLSWITCH on the belt!!

The fans are again torn, but Christian then drags Nana up! He holds Nana in place so Nick can hit WAYNE’S WORLD! Christian then goes back to the mic, and he looms over Swerve to tell him, “There’s something you should know about me. I never forget. I haven’t forgotten that some months ago, you broke into my son, Nick Wayne’s gym and left him in a pool of his own blood. I haven’t forgotten- Keep it down while I’m conducting my business!” The fans boo but Christian says he didn’t forget that at one time, they were a tag team at the biggest show in the history of this business, and Swerve lost! Swerve embarrassed Christian!

Christian’s been waiting for the right moment to make him answer for those mistakes, and Swerve went and won the world championship. It seems like there’s no better time than right now to make Swerve pay for those mistakes. Christian will embarrass Swerve the same way Swerve embarrassed him. Christian will end Swerve’s reign before it even begins, and make him a footnote in the history of AEW! The fans boo more but Christian says he heard that speech last week, Swerve talking about his path to this title, how grueling it was and how he put every ounce of himself into it, to where his own daughter doesn’t even know him.

Christian tells Swerve that when he’s done with Swerve, Swerve’s daughter won’t want to know him! But Christian will promise Swerve this: Swerve’s daughter will have a father she can be proud of for the rest of her life! Christian tells Winnipeg that the same way the Colorado Avalanche walked into their house and took their championship dreams away, Christian will walk into Swerve’s House at Double or Nothing and rip this AEW World Championship from his hands. But Swerve, know this: “The pain has just begun.” And with that, Luchasaurus PULLS Swerve’s hair out of his head! Luchasaurus shows off the braid, will that only be the first trophy The Patriarchy takes?

AEW TNT Championship: Adam “Edge” Copeland VS ??? w/ The House of Black!

After defeating The Rated R Superstar, as well as Mark Briscoe & Eddie Kingston, at Dynasty, the House of Black has answered the call of the #CopeOpen. However, they’re going to keep us guessing until the very moment it’s time to fight! Malakai Black speaks from the shadows that everyone expected him to come out here, all the bells and whistles. But why should Malakai fight Edge now, when watching what he did to Edge infiltrating Edge’s mind is so much more rewarding? Malakai laughs, but then who is coming for the gold? It’s the Aussie Juggernaut, Buddy Matthews! The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if the House Always Wins!

The bell rings and the fans rally up as Edge and Buddy stare down. The two tie up, Buddy headlocks, but Edge powers up and out. They RAM shoulders and neither falls. The two reset, tie up again, and Edge headlocks. Buddy powers up and out, they RAM shoulders, and again neither falls. The fans rally as the two circle, tie up, and Buddy headlocks for the takeover. Buddy holds off the headscissors but Edge powers through. Edge has the headscissors, Buddy kips free, but turns around into a headlock takeover. Buddy headscissors, Edge kips free, but Buddy sweeps to a cover! ONE, and Edge sweeps to a cover, ONE!

Buddy kip sup and stares Edge down and the fans cheer. Edge and Buddy circle, tie up, and Buddy waistlocks. Edge pries at the hold, switches back, and he CLUBS Buddy. Edge back suplexes, Buddy lands out and RANAS! Edge tumbles out, Buddy builds speed, but then he stops as Edge is ready. The two stare down, Edge eggs Buddy on, and Buddy kicks him. Buddy whips, Edge reverses and TOSSES Buddy out! Edge builds speed but Buddy hurries in, Edge DUMPS Buddy back out! Edge gets moving and DIVES! Down goes Buddy and the fans fire up! Edge shakes out his arms and gets to his feet as Dynamite goes picture in picture.

Edge storms his way over to Buddy at the ramp, drags him up, and sends him into the steel steps! Edge refreshes the ring count, then stalks Buddy to the barriers. Edge brings Buddy around to whip him hard into the railing! The fans fire up as Edge storms over to Buddy, CLUBS him on the back, but then Buddy kicks back! Buddy SMACKS Edge off barriers, makes him take a seat, then runs to KNEE Edge into barriers! Buddy shoves Edge down, then brings him back up to ROCK him with a forearm! Buddy puts Edge in the ring, storms his way up the steps, and then storms up to Edge. Edge throws body shots and forearms in return!

Edge has Buddy in a corner, but Buddy shoves Edge away. Buddy runs up, into a kitchen sink knee! Buddy sits up clutching his stomach, but Edge pushes him down for a cover, TWO! Buddy bails out, Edge pursues, and Edge brings Buddy around to SMACK off steel steps! Edge ROCKS Buddy with forearm after forearm, but then Buddy WRINGS Edge’s arm into the apron! Buddy rolls into the ring, Edge drags himself back up, and Dynamite returns to single picture. Buddy runs up but Edge fires hands! Edge bumps Buddy off buckles, then HOTSHOTS him! The fans rally and Edge drags himself back up, to RAM into Buddy, only for Buddy to make it a DDT!

The fans rally while both men are down. Edge and Buddy rise up, and Buddy stomps Edge to a corner. Buddy stomps a mudhole in, the fans boo and the ref counts. Buddy stomps Edge more, then CHOKES him! The ref counts and fans boo but Buddy lets off at 4. Buddy drags Edge up, snapmares and KICKS him in the back! Edge writhes while Buddy soaks up the heat.

Samoa Joe VS Isiah Kassidy!

The King of Wrestling Television may have lost his crown, but he hasn’t lost what made him champion in the first place. Will he get back on track with a win tonight? Or will Brother Zay earn a title shot (shot shot) of his own by pinning the former champion?

Skye Blue speaks.

“Willow Nightingale, my former best friend. You’re a damn fraud! You know last time one-on-one in that ring, I had you pinned. If it weren’t for that bald b*tch on a leash, Stokely Hathaway… And Julia and I, last time in Canada, we beat both you and Statlander in a Street Fight. So you know I have your number because I have proved it every damn week. And if you’re even half the woman that you say you are, come prove it tonight on Rampage, and put the TBS title on the line.” The Chicago Skye has made the challenge, will Willow go on a Rampage with her?

Orange Cassidy is here!

Winnipeg fires up for Freshly Squeezed, but surely he is in a sour mood after how the Parking Lot Brawl went. It wasn’t even that Trent Beretta beat Chuck Taylor and won. It was that after the match, Trent used a monkey wrench to all but shatter Chuck’s leg just because he could! Cassidy gets in the ring now and has a mic to say, “I hate this. See, I thought after Saturday, when my Best Friends, Chuck and Trent, got into a parking lot, beat each other up, and get everything out of their systems, we’d come back together, stand here in this ring together, as Best Friends. But see, that’s never gonna happen.

“I have been told that because of what Trent did to Chuck after the match… I have been told that my Best Friend, Chuck Taylor, will never wrestle again.” Fans are shocked and upset, and Cassidy takes off the sunglasses. “So now I’m standing in this ring alone, to tell you, Trent Beretta, that the next time I see you-” Trent interrupts! And he says wow, big surprise! Cassidy is making things about himself again! Trying to make somebody else’s career ending about himself! Cassidy rushes out but the security guards get in the way! Trent says Cassidy is too selfish! That’s why this all happened! Chuck’s career is over because of Cassidy, not Trent!

Cassidy is still pushing through the security guards so Kris Statlander hurries out here to stop him! Trent says Cassidy is the selfish one! Then Don Callis walks out here!? The fans boo as Callis talks Cassidy down, and whispers something to him. Trent says Cassidy is selfish, and Cassidy actually walks away with Callis?! Trent gives a mocking thumbs up, but just what is going on here?

Backstage interview with The Young Bucks.

Renee Paquette is with Matthew & Nicholas Jackson, and says tonight is a big night. Can the EVPs give her any nuggets as to what else is planned? Matt says first off, she’s killing it as always. How’s the family? How’s Jon? Oh, they’re all g- That’s great to hear. But they don’t really have time to talk right now, they’re looking for an old. Has she happened to bump into him yet? No? Okay. Well, they’ve had way too much TV time tonight already, let’s give some to their good friend, The Scapegoat, Jack Perry! Jack tags in for the interview and Renee asks him just what the hell was he thinking attacking Tony Khan last week.

Jack says he meant what he said last week. The only thing he wants is what’s best for AEW. And some people might not see it, but that’s what he did. The funny part to Jack is that Tony Khan is the one who made Jack into “The Scapegoat.” It hurt at the time, but he accepted it at the time because he realized that it was a sacrifice that someone was gonna have to make. But we all have to sacrifice, Tony. And thanks to you, we are entering a new era of AEW, under The Elite! Jack & The Bucks head out, what else is going to happen in their era?

FTW Championship: Chris Jericho VS Katsuyori Shibata!

The Learning Tree has not only changed his attitude and his song, but now he’s changed his look when it comes to his ring gear. All this along with how he has supposedly changed the meaning of the acronym. This is now the #ForTheWorld Championship, because he claims to be doing all this for the world! Well, will The Wrestler cut down The Learning Tree for the sake of the world? Or will even Shibata have something to learn from The Wizard?

The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is truly the master!
