Steel Cage, MJF as Special Guest Referee: Wardlow VS Shawn Spears!
The final hurdle is here! If the War Dog can get through the Chair Man inside this cage, he’ll get Maxwell Jacob Friedman at Double or Nothing! But of course, stacking the deck as always, MJF is going to be the officiator in this match, wearing his own custom referee shirt. He claims he’ll call this right down the middle, but will MJF make sure Spears slays the giant and saves him from certain doom on Sunday?
Once again, Wardlow is in cuffs while being escorted to the ring. Fans chant, “WARD~LOW!” the whole way, and Wardlow steps inside the steel. MJF says he’s got those cuffs, as soon as he does the pat down. Wardlow is clean, but MJF “misplaced” the key. Fans boo, because they know this is just another way to rig this match! Spears attacks Wardlow outta nowhere, and MJF has the bell ring! Spears stomps, CLUBS and then throws body shots and more stomps. MJF whistles and has Spears back down, because he “found” the key. But then MJF stomps away on Wardlow, too! MJF knows Wardlow can’t attack him because that’ll violate the match contract!
Spears CLOBBERS Wardlow, stomps him, and MJF smirks. Wardlow gets up but elbows Spears away! Then BOOTS him! But MJF rakes Wardlow’s eyes! Fans boo but MJF eggs them on. Spears drags Wardlow up in the gap between ropes and steel, and both he and MJF run to RAM Wardlow into steel! MJF and Spears high-ten and then soak up the heat. Fans taunt Spears with “TEN! TEN! TEN!” and Spears brings the kneepad down. But Wardlow back drops Spears away! And BOOTS him! MJF stares Wardlow down because again, he can’t be touched. Wardlow endures the taunting, even as MJF SPITS in his face!
But then Wardlow BREAKS the cuffs on his own!? Wardlow CLOBBERS Spears over and over, THROWS him into the steel, then drags him up to TOSS him into more steel! Fans tell MJF he F’d up, but Spears HOTSHOTS Wardlow! Fans boo as Spears hurries up a corner, but Wardlow is after him! Wardlow won’t let Spears escape, he CUBS Spears over and over, then throws him down! Wardlow adjusts on the top rope to SWANTON BOMB! Cover, but of course MJF doesn’t count. Wardlow realizes he should’ve known better. Fans chant, “Ref, You Suck!” but MJF doesn’t care. He’s untouchable in this match! But Wardlow stepping closer does scare him…
Wardlow gets Spears up, but MJF LOW BLOWS him! Spears hurries to fireman’s carry, C4!! Cover, MJF is ready, TWO!! MJF went as fast as humanly possible and Wardlow still got out! Not only that, Spears realizes his finisher juts got buried! Fans chant for “WARD~LOW!” as he stirs, but Spears goes outside the cage to get his chair! This non-escape cage match has to end in the ring but Spears brings in his insurance policy! MJF holds Wardlow up for Spears, and Spears winds up, but Wardlow moves! CHAIRSHOT TO MJF!! Wardlow didn’t need to touch MJF to get even with him! And now Spears is stunned as fans chant that he F’d up!
Spears then realizes Wardlow is standing back up. Spears turns around, Wardlow brings the straps down! Spears is now wishing escape was a way to win. Wardlow gets Spears up, POWERBOMB! But that’s just one! Here’s another POWERBOMB! And then a third POWERBOMB! The Powerbomb Symphony has the fans rocking, and a spare ref runs in! Wardlow sets up Spears’ chair, gets Spears back up, and fans are thunderous! Wardlow reels Spears in again, POWERBOMB ON THE CHAIR!! Cover, Wardlow wins!!
Winner: Wardlow, by pinfall (WILL face MJF at Double or Nothing)
Wardlow got even with Spears, but now he wants MJF! Security rushes in but Wardlow DECKS each of them one at a time! There’s almost no end to these guys, but Wardlow gets that last one with a kick! Wardlow reels this guy in, gets him up, and BOMBS him against the cage!! The man falls into the gap, never to be seen again! Wardlow then climbs up the cage just to make a point that MJF can’t hold him back anymore! Is Wardlow not only going to win his freedom from MJF, but rid AEW of MJF once and for all?
AEW’s heart goes out to Uvalde, Texas.
After the tragedy of the school shooting, all any of us can really do is love each other and pray violence stops.
The Jericho Appreciation Society walks ‘n’ talks.
Daniel Garcia tells Blackpool Combat Club, Eddie Kingston, Santana & Ortiz that this Sunday, Double or Nothing, Anarchy in the Arena, the JAS shows you how violent sports entertainers can really be. But then hold on, who is this bozo wearing a Moxley shirt? Menard and Parker get in this guy’s face. Good quality shirt. Is this polyester? Parker asks if he wants a taste of his switchblade… comb. Y’know what happens when you’re a Moxley fan? FIREBALL from Jericho!! The Wizard strikes again! Will the JAS show no mercy to anyone who isn’t on their side?
Tony Schiavone is in the ring.
As we celebrate three years of AEW where it all began in Las Vegas, Nevada, we have the biggest AEW World Championship match ever on the biggest night ever, Double or Nothing. And the challenger is the Best in the World, CM PUNK! Fans fire up as Punk makes his entrance! And he sits cross-legged on the stage while he rallies the fans to get louder. Punk continues down to the ring and fans chant his name. Schiavone then introduces the other half of this face-to-face, the AEW World Champion, HANGMAN ADAM PAGE! Fans fire up again as the Cowboy makes his way out, belt on his shoulder.
Hangman joins Punk and Schiavone in the ring and Schiavone says these last few weeks, both men have joined commentary and watched the other go to work. Hangman’s used Go To Sleep, Punk’s used the Buckshot, and there’s been a lot of talk and now, for the first time, they’re standing here for a face-to-face interview. Schiavone starts with Punk, saying Punk is prepared for Double or Nothing and becoming the next AEW World Champion. Punk has a mixed reaction from Vegas but with plenty of fans chanting his name. Punk says it is safe to say, “the biggest moment of my career happened right here in Las Vegas.”
Punk is grateful to be in the position he is in, loves the fans all over the world, and plans to walk in challenger, and respectfully walk out the champion. Schiavone now goes to Hangman and says Hangman knows just who he is facing, what everyone knows about CM Punk, but this confidence level is off the charts for the challenger. Fans also have a mixed reaction for Hangman, and still plenty chanting, “COWBOY S*IT!” Hangman says he said exactly what he was going to do to Punk, and did he stutter? “There is nothing that you can do to me to take this championship away from me!”
Schiavone says this is a determined champion, but Punk says he isn’t so sure why Hangman takes this personally. Hangman is a champion because he is Hangman Adam Page, the toughest SOB in AEW, and he holds that gold for a reason. But there is a locker room full of people just like Punk waiting for their shot. This is just business. It’s Punk’s shot, it’s not personal. Schiavone says there seems to be respect here, but Hangman takes the mic to say, “I said three weeks ago exactly what I was going to do to you. I said I was going to destroy you. I said I was going to annihilate you, to embarrass you. And I did not mean at Double or Nothing. I meant right now.”
Punk smirks and says, “Okay,” as Hangman says he’s been waiting for this moment not just weeks, but for months. Hangman has imagined himself sitting on the stage, cross-legged, and he’d pull out a lighter to light a pipe bomb and roll it down to Punk’s feet and watch it blow up in Punk’s face! How cathartic it would feel, and how full circle for Punk, right here in Vegas. But now that we’re here… Hangman realizes that he just can’t do it. He can’t. Not because he’s afraid he’d get fired or because he’s afraid of Punk. But when Hangman thought about what he wanted to say, he realized it’s just what Punk would do.
And fighting Punk’s hatred, pettiness and cowardice with more of the same would not be the right thing to do. But Hangman will say face-to-face, man-to-man, how he feels about Punk. “I don’t hate you. I almost pity you. And I have no respect for you and what you’ve done since you’ve gotten here. You want this AEW World Championship? I don’t think you understand what it means to be a champion. After all these years, I don’t think you get it. Because it’s not just about what happens in this ring, it’s about what happens when that red light turns off. What happens when you go back through that curtain. Those small, quiet moments when you think no one’s watching. That’s what makes a champion.”
Hangman says Punk talks a big game about worker’s rights, but has shown the exact opposite since getting here. Hangman loves this place, cares about this place, this is his home! And at Double or Nothing, Hangman will not be defending this title against Punk. For the first time in Hangman’s life, he will be defending ALL ELITE WRESTLING from Punk! Fans fire up hearing that one! Hangman then offers the mic to Schiavone and he takes it back. Punk’s response is he doesn’t get why Hangman’s so angry and taking this personally. “It makes me a little bit confused. You’re kinda talking in circles, it’s a big riddle, but if you’re so upset that I’m here, you’re gonna have to do something about it on Sunday.
“Win, lose or draw, I respect you, Hangman. But remember, those roads you traveled to get here? They were paved by me. This house that you built? It was constructed with lumber from trees that I chopped down. The world you traveled to get here, to create All Elite Wrestling, happened because I gave you the blueprint. You will shake my hand Sunday. Y’know what, Hangman, you’re gonna shake my hand right now.” Punk holds out his hand, fans are a bit torn, and Punk says all this misplaced anger isn’t for Punk, it’s for Hangman himself. Now shake his hand. Hangman says no thanks, so Punk shoves him. And Hangman DECKS Punk!
Fans fire up as Punk is rather shocked by that move. But he also smiles, perhaps getting exactly what he wanted. Hangman scowls and storms off, will he have a better poker face when it’s Double or Nothing?
AEW looks closer at the coming TBS Championship rematch.
The Queenslayer made the save for Statlander on Rampage, but Jade Cargill asks, “Anna Who?” The girl she already beat? But Anna says she doesn’t get all the extra BS, like the lights and the pyro and the Baddies Section. Jade already beat dat ass, but Jay thinks she deserves another shot? Jay says after her lose, she learned from some of the best on the roster. Now, she’s ready to beat the best and be TBS Champion. Double or Nothing, Jade says you put all your money on her because she is nothing but money. Will #ThatBitchShow just get even bigger and better? Or will Number 99 be the one in 30-1?
The Jericho Appreciation Society heads to the ring!
William Regal is already on commentary as Jericho leads Parker, Menard, Garcia and Jake Hager out. But Jericho has the music cut so the fans can’t sing Judas. Vegas, you don’t have what it takes to sing that song, so sit down and shut up! No singing for Vegas! The JAS then also goes to commentary, because they’re going to watch this next match.
Jon Moxley & Eddie Kingston VS Private Party!
The Maniac & The Mad King team up together again to prepare for Double or Nothing, and enter from the crowd! Bryan Danielson would’ve been here but he got his leg trapped between ramp and ring on Rampage last Friday.

AEW takes a closer look at the Owen Hart Cup.
Mark Henry says watching all the competition in these tournaments, he is sure Owen would be so proud. Toni Storm says just a few months ago, she thought she was out of wrestling for good. But now she is this close to the finals. Britt Baker vows to defeat Storm and win the tournament at Double or Nothing to prove once again she is the best. Kyle O’Reilly tells Samoa Joe, Double or Nothing will be an Undisputed Elite finals. But Joe ponders the question, “How do you beat someone like Kyle O’Reilly? A submission aficionado, a striking prodigy.” But like all fancy things, you just place it on the anvil and break it. And when Joe is down with Kyle, he’s coming for Adam Cole, BAYBAY.

The Hardy Boyz speak.
Matt tells the Young Bucks that their stories both began with a lot of similarities. They were all born and raised by wholesome, religious parents. They had innocent upbringings where they didn’t smoke or drink. They didn’t even curse! And they all had dreams of becoming pro-wrestlers. But that’s where the parallels end. The Hardys broke into the business in the early 90s, and it was a different industry back then, and a majorly different culture. The brutal, tough roads the Hardys had to walk, the Bucks could never, EVER have survived! The Bucks don’t have the grit, the resilience that these two have. The Hardys no only survived, but they became a revolutionary tag team.
Sure, the Bucks are talented, are Elite, but let’s call it like it is. When the Hardys look at the Bucks, and even when the fans look at the Bucks, all they see are Hardy Boy cosplayers! The reason the Hardys are here in AEW is to cement their legacies as the GOATs of tag team wrestling. Jeff says that was GR-E-E-E-E-EAT. Get it? Goats? But they’re not a team in their prime, they’re a team in their OVERPRIME, and it is overtime! The pressure is on to win. This is a clean slate for Jeff, it is his time approaching the eventual time. But this final run will be the best run!
So at Double or Nothing, the Bucks are just two little stepping stones on the Hardys’ way to becoming AEW World Tag Team Champions to complete the collection! And if the Bucks think they’re in their prime, well, they will NEVER be better than the Hardys! The Hardys have been better at every stage of life! Better as babies, as kids, as teenagers, at their peak, and right here and now even as middle-aged and extreme! The Bucks may be elite, but this is the DELETE! They will DELETE the Bucks this Sunday! And there’s a saying: Never meet your heroes, they’ll probably disappoint you. But for the Bucks, it’ll be more like disappointed that they can never beat their heroes!

But here comes KEITH LEE! The Limitless One isn’t going to let this keep going without him! Keith, Hobbs and Luchasaurus, the big men of each team, start throwing hands! Hobbs ROCKS Keith, Luchasaurus TAIL WHIPS Hobbs, but Keith GRIZZLY MAGNUMS Luchasaurus! Keith then LIMITLESS TORNILLOS them both down!! Fans lose their minds all over again and Keith regroups with Swerve. Will all of the AEW Tag Division soon bask in their glory?
Dan Lambert & the Men of the Year speak.
Lambert says, “Sammy, Tay and Frankie must have a combined IQ of room temperature with the air conditioning on if they thought for one second that busting up Scorpio’s TNT title belt was going to get them the match that they want. Well, somebody please tell these idiots about this new invention we have called the internet and show them how to look up American Top Team. Because maybe then, they would understand that winning every championship there is in combat sports means I probably have every belt maker in the world on speed dial.” That’s right, Lambert ordered Scorpio a brand new belt even before AEW’s favorite couple could tweet out a picture of themselves in the middle of some disgusting act wearing the old one.
So, Scorpio Sky gets a special Friday Night Rampage. The brand new, custom made TNT Championship, handcrafted in Scorpio’s image, will be presented to him and he will love it. Scorpio snaps his fingers and we cut away, but will Sammy, Tay & Frankie just look to break that belt up, too?
Schiavone is on stage.
This Sunday, the AEW Women’s World Championship will be defended. Schiavone introduces the champion, Thunder Rosa! La Mera Mera makes her way out, and Schiavone asks her about Deeb’s challenge. Rosa wants us to see her face. It has no face paint! This is the real Rosa, the face of someone who has worked and earned everything she has, and is grateful for being champion. That has never complained, either. Because that is what champions do. Deeb, “mi reina,” you are NOT a champion. Fans cheer Rosa on, and Rosa tells Deeb that she complains, is a little petty.
Rosa says Deeb points fingers at people and companies, pinning things on her past, with her questionable changes. Maybe Deeb should look in a mirror and blame herself. Rosa’s face used to look up to Deeb, but no more! And on Sunday, Deeb won’t see this face. On Sunday, the war paint is on. On Sunday, the warrior inside Rosa takes over! On Sunday, La Mera Mera will teach Deeb a lesson in respect for disrespecting Schiavone, for disrespecting Rosa’s mentor, Dustin Rhodes, for disrespecting the fans, and especially for disrespecting Rosa, the AEW Women’s World Champion!! And y’know what? Deeb will be very scared, because Rosa will haunt her forever!
AEW returns as Schiavone interviews Red Velvet backstage.
A tremendous match between The Chef and Kris Statlander in the Owen Hart Cup, but Statlander won. Velvet is surely upset. No sh*t, Schiavone. Velvet says she should have won that match, and she should be facing Ruby Soho. But speaking of, Soho walks in because she heard her name. Does Velvet have something to say to her? Yes, actually. If Soho needs to know how to beat Statlander, Velvet’s got this notebook right here. Statlander’s knee is messed up, and she has a bad shoulder, too.
Velvet leaves and Soho says she can admit, when she faced Statlander last time, Soho won by the skin of her teeth. But in the next round of the Owen Hart Cup, Soho knows she’s not facing the same Statlander. This notebook is useless, so Soho throws it away. Soho will keep what Velvet said in mind, though. Will the Runaway be able to get past whatever this new form the Galaxy’s Greatest Alien has taken and head for Double or Nothing? And speaking of…

Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament Semifinals: Samoa Joe VS Kyle O’Reilly!
The Panama City Playboy waits the winner of this at Double or Nothing, and he’s hoping for an Undisputed Finals! Will #KillerKyle keep that dream alive? Or will the Samoan Submission Machine make sure the Cup stays far out of their reach?
The bell rings and the two circle. Kyle and Joe test the waters with kicks, fans sing, “Joe is gonna kill~ you!” and Joe withstands Kyle’s quick flurry! Joe backs Kyle down with his own kicks and knees, and even adds elbows and a KICK! Kyle staggers but he steadies himself and the two reset. Kyle shoots in, Joe switches, Kyle flips it to a facelock. They move around, Joe wants a leg now, and he gets Kyle down! Kyle uses a leg guard and they end up in ropes, Joe lets off quickly. Fans fire up for the opening exchange and the two reset again.

Winner: Samoa Joe, by submission (advances to the finals)
Even with one good arm, the ROH World Television Champion pulls off the victory! But here comes Adam Cole, BAYBAY! Cole and Joe have never had a match against each other before, and now they will in a historic finals match at Double or Nothing! Who will win the inaugural Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament?
My Thoughts:
A great episode for Dynamite, especially as a go-home for Double or Nothing. For one, opening with the Steel Cage was an awesome move. I should’ve figured MJF would go that far to try and screw Wardlow over, but it was awesome how Wardlow turned it around on MJF. That was one serious headshot and MJF sold it perfectly. Wardlow of course wins, and of course we’re now getting MJF VS Wardlow at Double or Nothing, and who knows how that goes. There is a very good chance MJF wins, though, with the dirtiest of ways to win, but I bet Vegas would go nuts if Wardlow won. Also great to see that I called the TNT Championship was being remodeled for Scorpio, I bet that thing will look awesome.
Great promo from the JAS, and wow, Jericho with another fireball just because that staffer wore a Moxley shirt. If this were sports entertainment, they would’ve mentioned Jericho getting fined a lot of money. Regal and Jericho were very good on commentary during Moxley & Kingston VS Private Party, which was a lot of fun and a pretty good sampler of what Anarchy in the Arena will look like. I don’t want it to be so chaotic because that’ll be hard for everyone to keep up with all the action, but it will surely be just brawling all over ringside and even in the ring, and who knows what we’ll see these teams do to each other.
Good promo vignette from Jade and Jay to hype up the rematch, but again, because it’s Jay again, I feel like Jade’s got this one. I did like that Velvet, though Heel, gave Ruby, a Face, advice on how to beat Statlander since Velvet is now Statlander’s enemy. Ruby had a good Face response, and Ruby VS Statlander on Rampage is going to be a great match. Great promo from the Hardys to hype up their match with the Bucks, no idea who wins that match, but I definitely see the winner going after the AEW World Tag titles. And while Rosa had a very good promo, they started her music a little early. Probably just them misreading her promo, but it also felt like they were playing her off, which is a bit rude to do to your AEW Women’s World Champion. But that aside, Rosa is surely retaining against Deeb.
Great segment from Hangman and Punk, and though Hangman purposefully danced around the issue, I’m pretty sure what he was getting at is Punk coming in and throwing off all the plans for the AEW originals, Hangman himself included. Punk also had a good counter saying he was the foundation of what AEW is even about. That match is going to be amazing, Hangman knocking Punk down technically means Punk is standing tall because he got in Hangman’s head. I would think Hangman retains the title and that strengthens his reign, probably so he’ll be real strong for Kenny Omega’s eventual return.
The ROH World Tag Team Championship match was great stuff, and I even liked that it ended up like it did because The United Empire shows up to further build towards Forbidden Door. FTR wants more tag titles, RPG Vice called out a lot of champions, and now it seems the Empire figures they’ll grab up titles, we could get a huge tag title match with this feud. The Triple Threat of JB, Starks and Swerve was great stuff, and between Swerve winning the match and Keith running off the other heavies, I have a feeling Keith & Swerve end up losing somehow. That might mean Jurassic Express finds a way to retain, maybe Team Taz wins, but who knows.
Great “double main event” from the Owen Hart Cup Semifinals, and we even got a good promo vignette to hype the matches up. Britt VS Storm was of course still affected by Hayter showing up, but I almost thought Hayter was going to accidently cost Britt. But no, Britt still wins, as expected, and she is paralleling Cole as they’re both finalists. Joe VS Kyle was awesome stuff, and especially with Joe selling the arm damage from last week. Joe winning was great, though, and that gives us a classic Face VS Heel showdown. I suppose it would be too early for Cole VS Kyle, possible dysfunction between them in AEW after doing that story in NXT, and Cole VS Joe will still be awesome. But with Lethal, Sonjay & Singh lurking, I bet Joe loses because of them and Cole wins, he and Britt will be an Owen Hart Cup winner power couple.
My Score: 8.9/10

PLAY BY PLAY
MJF is here!
Phoenix is a bit torn over the Scumbag opening the night, but he and the Cowboy are set to have their face to face, with a strict No Physicality Order in effect. As such, Hangman Page makes his entrance next. The fans are ready for some #CowboyS*it as the two stare down from opposite corners. MJF throws his gum at the fans, which they boo, and then he grabs himself a mic. “I don’t speak Poor, I’m talking, thanks. The year was 2019. The first-ever event in the history of this event was Double Or Nothing. The first match in the history of this company was the Casino Battle Royal. The winner would have the opportunity to go on and become the inaugural world champion.
“I had the match won. It was the biggest opportunity of my life, and you screwed me. You cheap shotted me like a gutless little worm. So you know what I did? I had to scratch and claw my way back to the top. And I did so by beating some of the biggest names professional wrestling has to offer. Think of your favorite wrestler; yeah, I beat ’em! Though, looking down at my beautiful~ Dynamite Diamond Ring, I’m struggling to remember who I beat the first time I won this bad boy. Oh, that’s right, it was you. I then proceeded to go on to become a six-time Dynamite Diamond Ring Champion.
“I main evented, headlined and won the biggest wrestling event of all time in Wembley Stadium. I am a former International Champion, the best and longest reigning AEW World Champion of all time, the greatest wrestler on God’s green Earth, and do you know why, Hangman?” Fans tell MJF to STFU but MJF says it’s because he’s Maxwell Jacob Friedman, and he’s better than you, and you know it. MJF smiles and soaks up the heat from Phoenix, but then Hangman takes his turn. Why is MJF talking like Hangman doesn’t know who he is? Hangman knows exactly who MJF is and what MJF has done.
MJF is 28 years old, and already has a history making wrestling career. Hangman will give MJF that, and MJF should be proud of himself. But when MJF listed all of his accomplishments, he sounded angry about them. All of that, and MJF can’t be happy. Is it because there’s something that MJF still hasn’t been able to win… from the fans? MJF tells Hangman to shut his mouth! MJF calms down, and says no, you think he cares about the fans? He doesn’t give a damn about them! The fans boo but MJF tells them to shut up! MJF thinks it’s funny that the hypocrites who is redeemable and who is not.
Hangman has had everything handed to him on a silver platter, because these shmucks woke up and just decided Hangman’s the main character? The fans cheer that! Really? A guy who drank another man’s blood? A guy who attacked innocent veterans in the locker room? A guy who stabbed a syringe through another human’s face? The guy who was low down and vile enough to burn another man’s house down to ashes? Yet HE is the good guy!? MJF mocks the cheering, and says yay~, Hangman’s the hero! Just ask the fans! To them, Hangman did nothing wrong. But these morons will chant Cowboy S*it at the top of their lungs… Oh, and there they go!
Do you feel that, Hangman? Do you feel all warm and fuzzy? Everyone loves Hangman Adam Page! But MJF has a question for him: After everything Hangman has done… Does Hangman love Hangman? Did Hangman love himself after ending the career of his mentor, Christopher Daniels? After he absolutely demolished that worthless, talentless, jobber hack? Hangman tells MJF, “Don’t you dare! Don’t you DARE! Christopher Daniels is ten times the man that you will ever be! And if I could rip out my spine and give it to him, I would do it in a heartbeat!” The fans cheer that!
Hangman says Daniels’ 32 year career, flew 100 times around the globe, and if there’s a wrestling company that mattered in their lifetime, Daniels gave a part of his life to it! He went down fighting! Fighting for his life! Daniels died a warrior’s death! Hangman knows CD, and he knows Daniels would not have had it any other way. The fans cheer that, too. Daniels took care of pro-wrestling, even when pro-wrestling didn’t take care of him. Daniels is the best of us. And men and women like Daniels is why MJF and Hangman are even in this ring, don’t you ever forget that. The fans cheer that, and they chant for “FALLEN ANGEL!”
MJF scoffs at that, but Hangman says that selflessness, self-awareness and humility of Daniels that MJF doesn’t understand. MJF doesn’t have the stomach for it. If MJF’s career ended tonight, and if he doesn’t wipe that s*it eating grin off his face, it just might… But if MJF’s career ended tonight, what would the fans say about him? Would they say MJF is a credit to their sport? To this world? Or would they say he was an opportunist and a selfish coward? A man who took every shortcut he could, chasing all the power and glory that he thought would win their admiration.
MJF asked why, after everything Hangman has done, the people care about him. Hangman will not be as arrogant to say he understands it, or to put words in their mouths, but he will speak for himself. Hangman knows what is right, he knows what is wrong, and he tells the truth about it. In five years, he’s probably lied 100 times, but never once has he lied to the fans! And if Hangman has had a problem, he has faced it head on eye-to-eye. He didn’t run from it, didn’t hide it, and everything he has had, he worked for. The AEW Tag titles, the AEW World title, and a family that through all of this stood by him unconditionally! Believe him, it was not easy!
MJF has spent five years cheating, scheming his way to the top, and anyone that stood in his way, he told them he was better than them. And Hangman hopes that for once, for MJF’s own sake, there is a small part of him that is wondering, “Is it true?” Because it’s not. Deep down, Hangman thinks MJF knows that. MJF seethes, then smirks, then laughs. MJF asks, “Are you a child?” Oh, sowwy Hangman, sowwy fans, did he not win fairsy-squarsy on his way to the top? Oh no~! Hey, newsflash, dips*its, the history books don’t give a damn how you get the job done. MJF earned everything. Can’t say the same for Hangman.
Because whether Hangman cares to admit it or not, before the doors of this company even opened, the powers at be decided they were going to prop Hangman up. He was their golden boy, their chosen one. Hangman walked in at 2019 with all the buzz and propaganda in the world. Wanna know what MJF came in with? All MJF needed was a scarf and a mic! Hangman has earned NOTHING! MJF walks better, talks better, looks better, dresses better, and IS better! Name one thing Hangman does better than MJF. NAME IT! Hangman says, “I am real.” The fans cheer that, and the mics drop. They’re face to face, but they have to remember the No Physicality Order.
MJF looks to the fans, then he says Hangman can be the main character all he wants. MJF has no problem being the bad guy. Another mic drop, and then the jackets come off! Security hurries up to the apron to tell them remember the order. Hangman dares MJF to do something, but MJF stands down. But then he SPITS at Hangman! The fans boo as we see the saliva hanging from Hangman’s hair…! Hangman bolts at MJF but MJF bolts outta the ring! MJF smirks, having turned his level headed choice into a cowardly move. Hangman DECKS security guard after security guard, then hammers away on one poor soul!
Someone pulls Hangman back, and Hangman almost swings on them, until he sees it’s Christopher Daniels! Hangman calms down, and Daniels tells Hangman this is what he was fighting for this whole time. Hangman knows who he is, so don’t listen to MJF. Understood? Hangman nods, and he heads out. When and where will The Cowboy get his hands on the Devil of AEW?
Backstage interview with The Undisputed Kingdom.
Renee Paquette is with Adam Cole, Kyle O’Reilly & Roderick Strong, and notes Roddy is in the Revolution International Championship Series, facing Orange Cassidy. With the PPV around the corner, how does he expect this to shake out? Roddy shouts “ORRRANGE! Cassidy. Man, I feel like we’re gonna do this forever. We are destined to dance forever. And I get it, you’re friends with my pal over here, Mr. Kyle O’Reilly. But that’s not gonna stop me from destroying you tonight, going on to next week to beat Takeshita, and going on to Revolution to defeat Kenny Omega.”
Renee brings up the conflict of interest for Kyle with The Conglomeration, but Kyle says The Conglomeration is not so much a stable as it is a lifestyle. They love to hang, they love to conglomerate, and yeah, Orange is Kyle’s boy. But Roddy’s gonna have to break that back. Cole adds that regardless of who is friends with who, Roddy whoops Orange’s ass. And that is Undisputed. The Kingdom is ready, but will they run the Revolution? Or will things be Freshly Squeezed here tonight?
Six Man Tag: The Patriarchy VS The Opps!
Christian Cage has been avoiding this fight, but now he has no choice to stand alongside his “sons,” Nick Wayne & Kip Sabian against the opposition. Will Captain Charisma, The Prodigy & Mr. Superbad survive Samoa Joe, Hook & Katsuyori Shibata? Or will this be the end of The Patriarchy?
Dynamite returns and The Opps make their entrance. They’re #NeverLacking, and they even get pyro! The fans cheer, the trios sort out, and Shibata starts with Kip. The bell rings, the fans rally up, and Shibata feels things out with Kip. They knuckle lock, Kip kicks low, then Kip wrenches to a wristlock. Shibata wrenches back and he has the wristlock. Kip rolls, kips up, but Shibata trips him to a top wristlock. Kip keeps his shoulders up, fights to his feet, then slips through to hammerlock. Shibata switches that onto Kip, but Kip switches and kicks low. Kip headlocks, Shibata powers up and out, but Kip RAMS Shibata.
Shibata brushes himself off, but Kip headlocks. Shibata powers up and out, then kitchen sink knees! The fans cheer while Shibata drags Kip up. Tag to Joe, the fans really fire up, and they stand Kip on the ropes to CHOP, CHPO, and CHOP! DOUBLE MACHINE GUN CHOPS! They double whip, then trip Kip, and then Joe SENTONS! Kip sputters, Nick runs in, but Shibata trips him! And Joe SENTONS! The fans cheer, Christian is worried, but Kip tags him in! Christian steps in, stares Joe down, but then quickly tags out to Nick! Some father figure… Joe snatches Nick and bumps him off buckles! Joe CHOPS Nick, but Shibata keeps Nick standing.
Joe CHOPS again, and the fans fire up! Joe winds up to CHOP again! Tag to Shibata and he drags Nick up, for a CHOP! Nick tries to get away but Shibata puts him back in the corner. Shibata CHOPS Nick again, and again! Tag to Hook and the fans cheer again. Nick freaks out but Hook CHOPS! And CHOPS! Nick falls, Hook tags Shibata back in, and Shibata drags Nick up to snapmare. Shibata chinlocks and he squeezes tight. Then he KICKS Nick in the back, runs, but Mother Wayne distracts the ref. Christian gets a cheap shot in! Shibata DECKS him for it! Kip DECKS Shibata, Nick BLASTS Hook, and Nick hauls Shibata up.
Nick snap suplexes, covers, TWO! Mother Shayna coaches her son, and Nick ROCKS Shibata with a haymaker. Shibata drops to a knee, Nick stays on him, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Nick brings Shibata over, tags Kip, and they mug Shibata. Kip snapmares Shibata, KNEES him in the back, then clamps onto the arms. Shibata endures, so Kip KNEES him again. Kip pulls on the arms in a motorcycle stretch, but Shibata still endures. Shibata fights up, powers around, but Kip snapmares him to rain down forearms! Kip cradles for the cover, TWO! Kip KICKS Shibata int he back, brings him up, but Shibata snap suplexes first! And then he KICKS Kip! Shibata brings Kip up, but Kip CLAWS Shibata’s eyes! Kip bumps Shibata off buckles, tags Christian, and Christian fires hands on Shibata.

Backstage interview with Chris Jericho.
Renee is with the ROH World Champion and brings up how Jericho vowed to show Bryan Keith how it was done. He went to confront Bandido, but uh, did he accomplish what he set out to do given he just got pinned by Bandido at ROH Global Wars? Jericho says Renee should wipe that smirk off her face. What makes her think she can talk to Jericho like that? Renee isn’t sure what he’s getting at, but Jericho asks what makes her think he can’t have her thrown out of the building? He can, y’know! If not for him, Renee wouldn’t have a job. No one in AEW would have a job if not for him!
The truth is: No Chris Jericho, no AEW! That is a fact, not pro-wrestling rhetoric! Yet instead of getting treated with respect like the living legend he is, he gets nothing but vitriol and disrespect. Why is that? Is he too nice? Maybe the Learning Tree needs to give a history lesson. Jericho is The Nueve, that means nine in Spanish. As in a nine-time world champion, in multiple companies and multiple countries. Jericho is the guy walking down the street in Brisbane just a few days ago, and fans were asking to take pictures. Then Bandido is the guy you hand the camera to so he can take their picture.
Jericho tells Bandido got his biggest win ever, congrats. Jericho will give Bandido his chance at the ROH World Championship this Saturday on Collision. The bounty no longer means anything. Bandido gets his chance to beat Jericho, but Jericho gets his chance to prove that everyone is too comfortable around Chris EFFIN’ Jericho! Jericho storms off, but will he regret gambling with The Most Wanted?
Street Fight: “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs VS “Big Bill” Morrissey!
Speaking of grudge matches, these two have gone back and forth with their brawling! They’ve fought backstage, fought in the parking lot, and even took this fight to Australia over the weekend with Global Wars! But it’s gotta end somehow!

The fans fire up and Hobbs brings Bill up. But Bill CRAKS Hobbs with the monkey wrench!! Bill gets his own base hit, the ref has a standing count on Hobbs, but the fans want tables. Bill tells them STFU and shove it! The fans boo but Hobbs is up at 9.5 of 10!
Bill brings steel steps around, then he goes back for Hobbs. Hobbs is busted open, but Bill BOOTS him right back down! Bill drags Hobbs over, then CHOKE SLAMS him on the steel steps! Hobbs sputters, the fans boo, but Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Bill enjoys seeing Hobbs’s blood on him, and even uses it like lipstick! Bill swaggers like Jagger, tells the fans to shove it, then Bryan Keith appears! Keith and Bill high-five, then they work together to haul the other steel steps around. They get it onto the stage, then they bring out more plunder from under the ring. Oh, look! A table! They set that in the ring while Hobbs sputters to his feet. Dynamite returns to single picture while Bill sets up the table. The fans rally for Hobbs as he leans against the apron. Bill stands the table up in a corner, but Hobbs drags himself into the ring. Hobbs has the trash can, and he SMASHES it on Bill’s face!
The fans fire up as Hobbs winds up again, and he SMASHES Bill again! Bill flounders, Hobbs rips his shirt away, and the fans fire up for “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” Hobbs storms up on Bill, scoops him, but Keith is in! Hobbs drops Bill to PUNCH the chair! Keith panics, apologizes, but Hobbs CHOKE SLAMS him through the table! The fans fire up again, but Bill BOOTS Hobbs again! Hobbs tumbles to the ramp, Bill goes out after him, and fans chant “MEAT FOREVER!” Hobbs scoops Bill!? And POWERSLAMS him on the ramp! Hobbs then looks around, and he finds Bill’s backpack. Hobbs CLOBBERS Bill with the backpack!
Hobbs grins, and he dumps out the BRICKS that were inside! Hobbs then stalks Bill to the stage, where Bill put the steel steps! Hobbs ROCKS Bill with a right, ROCKS him again, and Bill is also busted open! The fans fire up as Hobbs fires off punch after punch! Hobbs stands Bill up to ROCK him, but Bill UPPERCUTS! Hobbs ROCKS Bill, Bill UPPERCUTS Hobbs, repeat! “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” Hobbs wobbles, but he kicks low! Hobbs brings Bill over, SMACKS him off the steel steps, and then DRIBBLES him off it! “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” Hobbs winds up to SMACK Bill off the steps again!
The fans are thunderous as Hobbs goes up the steps, and he drags Bill up to join him! Hobbs pops Bill up, to SPINEBUSTER down through barbed-wire tables!! The fans are thunderous and losing their mind! The count begins, Bill is still down at 5, just struggling to get out of the barbed wire! We hit TEN, Hobbs wins!!
Winner: “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs, by TKO
The fans cheer as Hobbs is the Last Big Meaty Man Standing! Will this vindication be more than enough for the Book of Hobbs to turn the page?
Backstage interview Brian Cage & Lance Archer.
Renee is now with The Don Callis Family’s Murder Machines, and brings up how they upstaged the Hurt Syndicate last week. That was a rather bold statement. Brian says yeah, bold indeed. But take a look at them! It is easy for them to do! The Murderhawk and The Machine have something to say, because they have business with the Hurt Syndicate. But big surprise, they’re nowhere to be found. Archer says word is, Hurt Syndicate will be at Collision. So if they wanna put on their big boy pants, the Hurt Syndicate can talk with the Murder Machines about those AEW World Tag Team Championships.
But in the end, Cage & Archer will take them, and #EverybodyDies. Then will MVP, Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin accept the challenge this close to Revolution?

Toni smiles, and says, “This whore you all adore… This slut you can’t rebut… This tramp is your NEW CHAMP!” The fans cheer again, and Toni continues. “On the other side of the world, in front of friends, family and former lovers, I faced the Woman From Hell. A woman… who broke my heart, took my title, and ruined my soul. Mariah May, you SICK B*TCH!”
But Mariah, Toni says she is also so proud of her. Because Mariah gave Toni the fight of her life, and then Toni won with her Small Package. “They say the best things come in small packages, but darling, you should’ve won protection, because I railed you with the biggest package there’s ever been!” Toni says Mariah has been defeated, exiled, and compromised to a permanent end.

AEW returns as Renee is now with The Babe with the Power, and as Renee starts to bring up last week, Willow speaks up.

Moxley goes to the ring, Marina, Yuta and Claudio in tow, and Moxley tells Phoenix he’s gonna ask a question. “Do you know just who in the hell I am?” The fans certainly do, but Moxley says he’s the champion of the world, that’s who! That means this is his mic, that’s his camera, this is his ring, this is his arena, and you’re sitting in his seats! So nobody comes into his house and lays down some challenge to him like they’re somebody! He doesn’t care even if it’s the Rated R Superstar! And he’ll tell ya, Adam Copeland is NOT here! He’s still on his ass in Australia, facedown in the dirt! Cope made a challenge, but Moxley about popped Cope’s head off his shoulders with his bare hands!
So if Cope shows up at Revolution, Moxley will finish the job! WAIT! Jay White is here! The Switchblade storms out and tells Moxley to hush. White sees it is 4v1, but wait! The Bastard slither sin from the shadows! White says fine, more the merrier! But wait! COPE IS HERE!? Moxley is a bit surprised, but he figures he’ll still keep his promise. Except Cope slithers in from the crowd side! Cope CLUBS Moxley down then HAMMERS away! The Death Riders are stunned, White gets Pac for a BLADERUNNER to the stage! Cope fights off Yuta and Claudio, then SPEARS Yuta! Claudio has Cope, but Cope shoves free!
White is there to clinch Claudio, BLADERUNNER into the SPEAR!! So is that a Spear Runner? Cope then finds SPIKE! She didn’t make the trip to Brisbane, but she’s here in Phoenix! White also gets a chair, and Cope takes a swing! Moxley and Marina run away, get into the crowd, but Cope pursues! Will Cope chase Moxley all the way to LA? Cope grabs a mic, and he shouts for Moxley! “This isn’t your arena. These aren’t your seats. These aren’t your people! They’re MY people!” The fans cheer that! Cope tells Moxley that he’s probably halfway to the hotel, hostel, or whatever bridge he lives under. But he knows Mox will see this.
Mox is a COWARD! No nuts, no guts, no spine! He needs his goons, but guess what? As of now, Cope takes them out one by one by one! When we get to Revolution, it will be man to man, and Cope will kick Moxley’s ass! The fans are ready, will the Road to Revolution be nothing but Rated R?

Renee welcomes in The CEO, and Mone says, “Phoeniiiix~! Say hello to your C E O! It feels so good, Renee. And Renee, I don’t want any interruptions, no surprises, and no damn puppets, you hear me?” Renee says of course, no puppets. Just congratulations for the great win at Grand Slam Australia. This makes Mone 14-0 as a TBS Champion, and it feels like there is no stopping the Money Train. Mone agrees, there IS no stopping the Money Train.

Yes, Momo has chosen Mone and the TBS Championship. She will see Mone at Revolution to put a stop to the Money Train. Mone asks what the hell!? She just said no surprises!

Backstage interview with Max Caster.
Renee is now with Platinum Max and brings up his series of open challenges. He is 0-2, is he starting to reconsider his strategy? No, Renee, he is not. The strategy isn’t the problem, it’s how “Hangperson” was chasing him around the arena. That’s not what the open challenge is about. It’s about going eye to eye with the Best Wrestler Alive! And look into his eyes. He’ll tell you this right now, the open challenge will continue this Saturday on Collision, and he expects whoever answers to look him in the eyes, shake his hand, and get beat! Because Caster will prove to him and everyone else that you can’t be better than the best.
Renee wishes Caster luck, Caster thanks her and shows off his certificate. But just who will answer when Caster puts out the call?
Ricochet is here!
And he’s still wearing the stolen robe that belongs to Prince Nana. Phoenix boos the One & Only, but he grabs the mic to say, “Really? That’s what we gonna do? That’s how we gonna act, huh? Y’know what? That’s okay, because I would be angry and bitter, too, if I had to live in Phoenix, Arizona. It’s basically a poor man’s Las Vegas.” The fans boo but Ricochet says lucky for him, he has a helicopter waiting to lift him outta here when he’s finished. Because much like Kevin Durant, Ricochet is trying to get outta this boring ass town ASAP! The fans boo more, but Ricochet says fine, “You do you.” Ricochet will do Ricochet.
Because since the fans are acting like ungrateful animals, Ricochet will speak directly to the people at home. He knows they can hear him loud and clear, huh? Yes you can! But he needs them to understand that all the fans, all the booing, it doesn’t matter! None if it does! Because when you boo a winner, you boo into a void of nothing, and baybeh, Ricochet is nothing but a winner! Ricochet proved it two weeks ago when he pinned Swerve to the mat, 1-2-3! But in reality, Ricochet has been proving it from the moment he stepped foot in AEW! Let’s be real, Ricochet has been whooping the asses of all the favorites!
Ricochet whooped Swerve’s ass, Ospreay’s ass, Darby Allin’s ass, Komander’s ass! The fans chant for Swerve’s House, but Ricochet says that everyone here and plenty of you at home will never understand is that winners always have something to show for it. And oh does Ricochet have something to show for all of his success! Ricochet models the Embassy’s robe, the fans boo more, but Ricochet says check this. He is not content to just wear this. No, he came to AEW to wear championships. Ricochet will not be just another name on the roster! Ricochet will be the main name on this roster! He came to win, and more importantly, he came to win gold.
Ricochet says that is where his sights are set for 2025. He wants to be a champion here in AEW! Oh, wait, wait, let’s correct that. Ricochet will be a champion in AEW, because he’s too good looking not to be. But wait! Swerve is here! Phoenix fires up as Nana walks out first, sips his coffee, then shakes his head. Ricochet looks around, surely the Realest is lurking. Nana gets in the ring first, though, and has his own mic. Nana tells Ricochet he knows what he’s thinking. But this isn’t that. Nana wanted to take this time to talk to Ricochet one on one, so Swerve isn’t here right now. Nana knows they’ve been beefing these last couple of months, and he isn’t sure where that is going.
But one thing that Nana does know is that Ricochet is wearing something that doesn’t belong to him. Three DECADES, Nana has been in this business. In the ring, outside the ring, closing major deals, making champions, and heck, making history! And that robe has a lot to do with it. That robe right there represents pride, represents integrity, and represents those that Nana has walked through, and that we’ve lost. But one thing about that robe is that anyone who is wearing it has honor. Anyone that wears it has been bestowed the opportunity to be great. And Nana never gave Ricochet that opportunity.
Ricochet, honestly, if you’re still that happy-go-lucky guy, that winner that he always says he is, that humane individual, then just give the robe back. The fans chant “GIVE IT BACK! GIVE IT BACK!” Ricochet says Nana wants the robe back, is that all? Yeah, okay, sure. Take it from him. Ricochet stares Nana down, but then he asks what’s wrong. Is Nana gonna cry? That’s okay, we all have emotions. Nana ain’t getting the robe back. AHA~! Ricochet leaves, and Nana shakes his head. Nana tried doing this with diplomacy, will he have no choice but to let Swerve do things his way?

Cassidy drags himself up with the ropes, Roddy stands and storms over, and Roddy YANKS Cassidy up! Cassidy lands on his feet to “kick,” then he fires real kicks! Cassidy stomps away, then runs, but into a POP-UP GUTBUSTER!! And a SICK KICK!! Roddy ain’t done, he hits END OF- STUN DOG MILLIONAIRE!! Cassidy powers up, ORANGE PUNCH!! Cover, Cassidy wins!!
Winner: Orange Cassidy, by pinfall (advances to the AEW International Championship match)
And with that, Dynamite is Freshly Squeezed! The Undisputed Kingdom heads out, Tony Schiavone steps in, and Schiavone says Cassidy is back and better than ever. It will be live from coast to coast when AEW is in San Diego, and Cassidy will go 1v1 with Takeshita for the title, winner going on to Revolution. If Cassidy wins, he’ll become the greatest International Champion in AEW history! But before Cassidy can speak, The Don Callis Family makes their way out here. Callis has a mic to say he has something important to say.
Mark Davis & Konosuke Takeshita flank Callis as he tells Cassidy, “I guess you’re gonna go tell everyone you’re the greatest International Champion of all time. But to me, you’re nothing but a red-headed hippy! You’re nothing but a loud mouth punk! GET HIM!” Callis sends Konosuke & Davis to go after Cassidy! They beat Cassidy down, and then Davis scoop SLAMS him! SENTON! Konosuke drags Cassidy up and Callis wants his shot! Callis kicks low, but here comes Kenny! Omega fires off on Konosuke & Davis! The fans fire up as Omega throws hands on Konosuke, but Davis grabs him for a SLEEPER! Konosuke kicks Omega in the gut!
The fans boo as Omega suffers, and Konosuke winds up. Davis sends Omega into the ALPHA ELBOW! Cassidy stands back up, Davis rushes him, but Cassidy DUMPS Davis out! Konosuke CLUBS Cassidy, and brings him in for RAGING- STUN DOG MILLIONAIRE! Omega is up to V-TRIGGER! Cassidy adds an ORANGE PUNCH! The Don Callis Family regroups and retreats! Phoenix fires up for Omega & Orange as Omega holds up the belt, the fans like how that looks! But Cassidy looks at the belt, wanting to have it back. Who makes it through this Revolution International Championship Series as THE champion?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite here to follow up the Australia specials and move things towards Revolution. Great promo segment to open with MJF and Hangman, and MJF has his “Heel making a good point” moment saying how the “forgiveness” is rather hypocritical. To be fair, Kevin Owens has made a similar argument recently, but it’s still valid in all of pro-wrestling where some Heels can never truly go Face. Anyway, good stuff to set up their match at Revolution, including that moment Hangman has with Daniels. And as I said last week, Hangman VS MJF should be seen as an unofficial #1 contender’s match, the winner aimed at the world title going towards AEW Dynasty in April.
Speaking of the world title, good stuff with Willow and Marina brawling again, leading into Moxley’s promo that then led into Cope & White getting after the Death Riders again. I really thought Cope was going to up the ante on the title match, but he instead implies he’s going to use the next two weeks, the next four AEW shows between Dynamite and Collision going into Revolution to have matches with Claudio, Yuta and Pac in whatever order, and take them off the board. I would think Jay White and even Willow are part of that, maybe even The Gunns as they rejoin White in the Bang Bang Gang, which could be some really good stuff that branches off into other matches.
Really good Trios match from Patriarchy VS Opps. The Opps have a good theme song, but maybe a little too chill. That aside, The Opps of course won and it was of course Nick Wayne taking the loss. I still think we should get Joe VS Christian, and then that’s a smokescreen where Christian loses only to come back and cash-in on the world title. It’s gotta happen, it’ll help shake things up, and again, how can we ignore a new Cope VS Christian feud? Very good promo from Toni Storm to leave it up in the air who her next feud is with, and pretty good promo segment with Mone and Momo to set up their feud. But now that Momo said TBS Championship, pretty sure Mone wins.
Toni did name drop Kris, and Kris Statlander has yet to challenge for the world title, so maybe she moves up after what we’re getting with her, Rosa, Ford & Bayne. Great match from Kris VS Megan, but I should’ve figured Ford would get involved to screw Kris over. And naturally, Ford would beat up Kris and that’d cue Rosa to make the save. But how did they botch that so badly? The irony is this was a botch where next to nothing happened when clearly something should have. It feels like someone between Ford and Megan forgot what they were to do, because the easy option would’ve been for them to slip out of the ring, but it just ended up awkward. The tag match will be good, and we can still do singles matches after, but this was a bad hiccup.
Jericho had a good promo to call out Bandido, and I didn’t think the ROH World Championship would be happening now. With that, there might be shenanigans that help Jericho win, which is a shame. Good promo from Cage & Archer to call out The Hurt Syndicate, and we’ll surely get a confrontation on Collision that then makes the tag title match for Revolution. That’s gonna be some big meaty men slapping meat there, much like tonight’s Street Fight. Though, AEW really needs to clarify how their rulebook works. Given the ten count, this was really a Last Man Standing match disguised as a Street Fight. But naming conventions aside, still great stuff, and Hobbs getting the win works so that he can move on, perhaps to a title match of his own.
Very good promo from Ricochet with Nana, and you can bet the robe will be the apparent prize in whatever rematch we get from Ricochet and Swerve. And knowing Swerve, he and Ricochet could have one killer No Disqualification style match. Good promo from Caster to play off his Open Challenge losses like they were for other reasons other than Caster isn’t the Best Wrestler Alive. And y’know what? They mentioned Gabe Kidd showing up for Collision, so why not two birds with one stone? Gabe should answer the challenge, beat the snot out of Caster, then call out just about anyone he wants, because he’s Gabe Kidd.
Very good promo from The Undisputed Kingdom, but what a copout on The Conglomeration not really being a thing anymore. Did they not want to put in the time to do a quick promo where The Conglomeration disassembles? I did like how Cassidy hugged Kyle and felt awkward around Cole, though. But still a great main event from Cassidy VS Roddy, and Cassidy winning makes a lot of sense. For one, The Kingdom can still do a feud with The Death Riders over the trios and world titles, but also, Cassidy really did establish the International Championship. Good stuff with Don Callis Family going after Cassidy, then Omega making the save. It’s also a good tease of Omega VS Cassidy for the first time since Omega was world champion, but we’re definitely getting Omega VS Takeshita at Revolution.
My Score: 8.8/10

A standing count begins on Ospreay and Kyle, and they slowly stir at 5 of 10. They rise up at 6, stand at 7, and Ospreay waits on Kyle at the ropes. Kyle turns around, Ospreay glares at him, and they go forehead to forehead. Ospreay CHOPS first! Ospreay eggs Kyle on, so Kyle comes back to CHOP! Ospreay staggers a couple steps but stays up, only firing the fans up more. Ospreay winds up to CHOP and Kyle sits down! Ospreay keeps the fans fired up, and he puts his hands back. Kyle chuckles, of course Ospreay wants more. Ospreay is doing a jig for the fans, but Kyle wants everyone to hush so they can hear this.
The crowd just gets rowdier so Kyle goes outside to hush them. Omega storms up to chase Kyle down! Kyle RAMS Omega through railing! Kyle mocks the cheering, but Omega is back to CHOP Kyle!

Callis is beside himself! The men he chose over Omega & Ospreay just lost to Omega & Ospreay! Will these two continue to humble Callis as they head for the top of AEW?
AEW TBS Championship: Mercedes Mone VS Harley Cameron!
The CEO is the Four Belt Boss, but the one that started her collection is now on the line! Mercedes didn’t take this wild Aussie seriously, and she still doesn’t want to, but she’ll have to if she wants to stay Four Belts Mone. Will Mercedes still be the Face of TBS? Or will she #FeelTheWrath of Harley Cameron?
An interesting note: Momo Watanabe of Stardom, who also won the inaugural International Women’s Cup back at WrestleDynasty, is watching from the front row. She is allowed to call whatever women’s championship match she wants, and Mone has plenty of titles, could one of them be on Momo’s radar?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who is golden on the Gold Coast!
The bell rings and the fans are all behind Harley. Mone eggs Harley on, but then dodges her to lounge on the top rope. The fans boo but Harley tells Mone to feel the wrath! Mone says alright! They tie up, go around, and Mone headlocks. Mone thrashes Harley, but Harley fights up, only for Mone to throw her down by her hair! The fans boo, the ref reprimands, but Mone scoops and SLAMS Harley! Mone tells Harley to just get out while she can.

The fans cheer as Harley brings the puppet along, then goes up the corner. The fans cheer as Harley rains down fists!
The fans count along, and Harley goes all the way to nine, then Puppet- NO, Mone trips Harley up! Money then DOUBLE KNEES Harley, and she stomps away on #MiniMone! Mone PUNTS the puppet, then she CHOKES Harley! The ref reprimands, Mone stops, and Mone bumps Harley off buckles! Mone chokes Harley again, sits her down, then runs corner to corner, METEORA! Cover, TWO! Harley stays in this and the fans rally up. Mone stalks Harley, talks trash, then CHOKES Harley on ropes! The ref counts, Mone stops, then snapmares Harley, to then METEORA again! Cover, TWO! The fans rally for Harley while AEW goes picture in picture.
Mone drags Harley up, picks her up, and rebounds her off the ropes for a BACKBREAKER! Mone bends Harley against her knee, but Harley endures. Harley fires knees to get free! Mone comes back with a basment ENZIGIRI! Cover, TWO! Mone grows frustrated but she lets Harley crawl away to a corner. Mone storms up, talks trash, and then CHOPS Harley! Harley goes to a corner, Mone brings her around to snapmare, and Mone wraps Harley up in a seated Cobra Twist! Harley endures, even as Mone CLUBS away on her chest! Mone mockingly “puppets” Harley’s mouth, then pushes her down to throw KNEE after KNEE! Cover, TWO!
Harley toughs it out but Mone is still in control, and Grand Slam: Australia goes to break.
Grand Slam: Australia returns, and Mone soaks up the heat. The fans chant “C E NO!” as Mone lifts again, but Harley makes it a BULLDOG! Just a little bit of Stratusfaction here and the fans rally up. Mone staggers around, Harley fires forearms! Mone hits back, but Harley fires a flurry! Then a DOUBLE CHOP! Harley whips, LARIATS, and LARIATS again! Harley runs up, but Mone catches her, spins her, and snap suplexes her! The fans boo Una Amiga, and they boo Dos Amigas! They even boo THREE AMIGAS! Mone gives some Latina Heat but the fans still boo. Mone steps on Harley, then goes up the corner, and FROG SPLASHES onto knees!!
The fans cheer as Harley saves herself, then rolls Mone! TWO! Harley staggers to a corner, Mone runs up, but Harley BOOTS her! Mone comes back again, but Harley slips around to waistlock. Mone fights it, but Harley pump handles for the SAIDO! The fans fire up, Harley covers, TWO! Mone survives but the fans continue to rally behind Harley. Harley feels that energy, and she drags Mone up. Fireman’s carry, but Mone fights free! BACKSTABBER! Harley flounders and Mone basement DROPKICKS her out! Mone soaks up the heat, but wait! Harley has found Mini-Mone! And they’re both angry! Mone runs up, but Harley dodges!
Harley ROCKS Mone using the puppet! Then she DRIBBLES Mone off the apron! Harley puts Mone in the ring, shouts, “FEEL THE WRATH!” and the fans cheer her on!

Both women rise, and Harley brings Mone up. Harley runs, but Mone slips under to then Gory Especial! MONEY- NO, Harley trips her! Jackknife bridge, TWO!

The fans boo Mone showing off some strength, but then Mone goes up the corner. Harley sits up, into a METEORA! Cover, TWO!! Harley survives and the fans are thunderous! Mone is beside herself, but Harley ghost pins her! TWO!! Harley hurries to Oklahoma Roll! TWO! Harley whips, Mone reverses, but Harley goes up and over, to sunset flip! TWO! Mone scrambles to her feet, but Harley drop toeholds her into buckles! Harley runs side to side, for a 619!! If Mone is Eddie, Harley is ready to be Rey Mysterio! She climbs up, to SWANTON FLOP as Mone moves! Mone hooks Harley up again, MONEY MAKER!! Cover, Mone wins!
Winner: Mercedes Mone, by pinfall (still AEW TBS Champion)
The CEO grins as she holds onto all of her gold, much to the chagrin of Brisbane. But if Harley did this well on her first try, will we see them run this one back soon enough? Meanwhile, Momo is there to sarcastically applaud Mone. Mone pie faces Momo with the TBS Championship, then swaggers away. Did the CEO just make Momo’s choice of championships that much easier?
Omega & Ospreay regroup backstage.
The Cleaner says, “As happy as I should be teaming with my good buddy, Will Ospreay, I’m still kinda pissed a little bit. Because for an entire year, I had to listen to people like you, Takeshita, people like Don Callis, talk about how you beat me twice in one week. How the International title is the pinnacle of this title because you’re defending it all over the world. Well listen here, Takeshita. You really wanna prove that you’re the best? You really wanna prove that you’re the rightful champion? I’ve got the time and I’ve got the place: Revolution, Los Angeles. Put that International title on the line and see if you can say you beat Kenny Omega three times.”
Omega says Ospreay has something in store for Kyle now, right? Ospreay says yes, mate! He never could’ve imagined he and Omega would be on the same team, but y’know what he never imagined either? Stepping into his own country, Kyle Fletcher’s own country of Australia, isn’t cheering him! They’re cheering Ospreay! But every time Kyle got an advantage on Ospreay, it wasn’t because of Kyle’s own talent! And as talented as Kyle is, he’s not good enough, because he has to get the Family in on this! Well let Ospreay tell you this, lad: They won’t be by Kyle’s side! They’re gonna be locked away while Ospreay and Kyle are locked in!
That’s right: Ospreay VS Fletcher, Revolution, STEEL CAGE MATCH! Let’s lock in! It’s time to see if Kyle really is that good! Time to see if Kyle really is the Protostar! Because this is Will Ospreay, and he is on another level! The Best Bout Bruvs head out, having thrown down huge challenges! Will the Callis Family put up or shut up?
Brisbane Brawl: Adam Copeland & Jay White VS Jon Moxley & Claudio Castagnoli!
Speaking of common enemies, The Rated R Superstar and the Switchblade have put aside their differences to deal with The Death Riders, who have been holding the AEW World Championship hostage ever since they demolished Bryan Danielson. Will the WWE Grand Slam Champion and the NJPW Grand Slam Champion combine to hit THE Grand Slam in Australia? Or will The Maniac, the Swiss Cyborg, and possibly the rest of the Death Riders, make them regret ever picking this fight?
The fans sing along with Metalingus for Cope and he loves it! White then makes his entrance, no lyrics to sing in his song. The Death Riders make their entrance last, coming in from the crowd as always. But as soon as they’re ringside, Cope JUMPS onto Moxley, and White knocks Claudio down! The fans fire up, the bell rings, but the Brisbane Brawl is already going as Cope and White send Moxley and Claudio into railing! They get both men in the ring, then in corners! Cope & White climb up, and they rain down fists! The fans count along, and we go all the way to TEN! Then they trade, LARIATS for Claudio & Moxley!
Cope & White DOUBLE LARIAT Moxley up and out, but Claudio runs in! Cope & White TOSS Claudio up and out, then the brawl returns to the outside! White goes after Moxley, Cope RIPS Claudio’s shirt off to beat him with it! Claudio hits Cope back, sends him through railing and into the crowd! White and Moxley fight up the ramp! Moxley CHOKES White, Claudio JAMS Cope up, but then White sends Moxley into railing! Cope and Claudio fight up the bleachers, and Claudio SMACKS Cope off guardrails! White sends Moxley into railing, and now they go into the crowd! Claudio soaks up the heat, and he HEADBUTTS Cope!
White brings a table out, but Marina stands in his way! Moxley CLUBS White down and the fans boo. Marina continues to be a Problem, but Moxley puts White in the ring. Moxley aims from a corner, runs up, but into a DDT! Cope is meanwhile trying to navigate his way to the upper deck, but Moxley gets out of the ring. Moxley goes under, and he brings out something. White PLANCHAS into a trash can lid! White falls in a heap, but Cope is up in the “vomitorium!” Cope stands on the ledge, the fans fire up, and Cope runs to LEAP! Direct hit on Claudio and the fans go nuts! Moxley ignores all that to grab some other stuff.
Cope catches his breath, but Moxley CHOKES White with a chair! White sputters, so Moxley CLAWS his face! Moxley tells Marina to help with the table, but the fans chant, “Moxley is a Wanker!” Cope makes his way back to ringside while Moxley just taunts the fans back. Moxley finishes setting the table up, and then he drags White over. Moxley pushes White onto the table, then he rains down fists! White can barely guard, but Moxley CHOKES him! Moxley goes up the corner, but Cope ROCKS him first! The fans cheer as Cope fires hands! Moxley wobbles, Cope goes up there, and Cope brings Moxley up!
Moxley fights the superplex, and Marina SMACKS Cope with a kendo stick! And SMACKS him again! White snatches the stick from Marina! But Claudio YANKS White down to UPPERCUT him down! Claudio gets under Cope, to POWERBOMB him through the table!! The fans boo as the Death Riders stand tall, and AEW goes picture in picture.
The ref checks Cope and he’s somehow still int his. But The Death Riders mug White, Marina again using the kendo stick! Moxley puts White in the ring, grabs up the chair and the trash can lid, then goes looking for some more things. Moxley found the trash can, but White uses the lid to SMACK Claudio!

AEW Continental Championship: Kazuchika Okada VS Buddy Matthews!
The Rainmaker likes to throw around “the B word” a lot, acting as if everyone is beneath him. But the Aussie Juggernaut thinks Okada’s the biggest B of them all! What happens now that there’s no running and hiding from this fight?

AEW Women’s World Championship: Mariah May VS Toni Storm!
The Glamour buttered up her role model so she could share the spotlight. However, it would seem Mariah was really just waiting for her chance to take everything away from Toni. All In: London was an instant classic, but it would seem Toni was taking her time to craft its sequel. Will the Woman From Hell make it another dramatic tragedy? Or will the AEW Women’s Division once again be Timeless?
Well, speaking of cinema, Luther is dressed like a movie usher, and he hushes the crowd before pointing to the stage. Toni’s old theme plays, and then the film flies off the reel. The lights go down, and back in black ‘n’ white, it’s Timeless Toni! The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and it’s time for another box office smash!
The bell rings and the fans fire up already. Mariah and Toni stare down, or perhaps have a scowl off? The two storm up, tie up, then just fire hands! The fans cheer as Toni gets the edge! Toni whips Mariah, Mariah reverses, but Toni goes up and over! Toni comes back to THESZ PRESS! Toni rains down fast hands and the fans cheer!

Mariah then runs to SHOTGUN Toni back down! Mariah stomps Toni now, but stops as the ref counts.
The fans sing for “Toni! Toni Storm~! Toni, Toni Storm~!” Mariah is annoyed by that, and she talks some trash. Mariah fireman’s carries, Toni slips free, GERMAN SUPLEX! Mariah flounders, Toni drags her back, GERMAN SUPLEX! Mariah sputters again but fans want that “One More Time!” Toni obliges, GERMAN SUPLEX! Mariah tumbles, rises, but then flops back over! Toni drags Mariah up, and GERMAN SUPLEXES again! That’s four, Brisbane is now Suplex City! Toni stalks Mariah, the fans chant, “RIP HER T*TS OFF!” GERMAN SUPLEX! That’s a fifth, Toni stalks Mariah to ropes, but is Mariah smiling?
Mariah slowly rises, Toni GERMAN SUPLEXES again! Mariah goes to the apron, Toni storms out after her, and waistlocks out there?! The fans fire up but Mariah holds on for her life! Mariah HOTSHOTS Toni, then YANKS her down! Mariah has a sinister smile now, and she runs at Toni to SHOTGUN her into railing! Toni slumps down, Mariah crawls away, and Luther is displeased while AEW goes picture in picture.

Grand Slam returns to single picture and Mariah UPPERCUTS again! The fans boo, but Mariah whips corner to corner. Toni comes back to LARIAT! And LARIAT! And SKY HIGH! Cover, TWO! Mariah survives but Toni steps on her!
Toni has the legs, ties those up, and the fans cheer for the DEATHLOCK STF COMBO! The fans rally, Mariah endures, but Toni grinds her down with the STF! But then Mariah BITES Toni’s arm!! Toni DRIBBLES Mariah’s face off the mat, then it’s back to the STF!! The fans cheer as Mariah suffers! Mariah reaches out, crawls her way over, and has the ROPEBREAK! Toni lets Mariah go in frustration, but she stalks Mariah to the apron. Toni drags Mariah up, but Mariah pushes free! Toni HEADBUTTS her, and Mariah sits down! Toni runs up, but Mariah dodges! Toni POSTS herself, and then Mariah fireman’s carries! MAYDAY to the floor!!
The fans rally while both women are down on the outside. Toni stirs, as does Mariah, and the ref starts a ring count. Luther rallies Brisbane, but Mariah is on Toni first. Mariah puts Toni in, then climbs. The fans continue to rally behind Toni, but Mariah is up top! MISSILE DROPKICK! Toni ends up in the other corner, and the fans boo as Mariah backs up. Mariah grins as she takes aim, mocks the closeup again, and HIP ATTACKS! Mariah then brings Toni up, but Toni fireman’s carries! She steals MAYDAY!! Cover, TWO!! Mariah survives her own move, but Toni rises again. Toni skips the closeup, HIP ATTACK!!
Toni snarls and keeps moving, HIP ATTACK!! Toni roars and the fans are thunderous, as we get a third HIP ATTACK!! Toni then hits STORM ZERO!!! Cover, TWO?!?! Mariah survives and Toni cannot believe it! The fans rally as hard as they can behind Toni as she drags Mariah back up. Mariah is a ragdoll, but Toni still brings her around.

Cover, TWO!?!?!? Toni survives and Brisbane is erupting!
Mariah is furious with the ref, but referee Aubrey Edwards pushes her down! Aubrey tells Mariah to respect her authority! Mariah goes back to Toni, brings her back up, and she SLAPS Toni! And SLAPS her! And SLAPS, SLAPS, SLAPS! The fans boo, Mariah tells Toni to just go away! Mariah then hoists Toni up top, but Toni says no to the Stratusphere! Mariah DOUBLE CHOPS Toni for that, then climbs up! Mariah gives Toni a kiss goodbye, but Toni slips under! RUNNING POWERBOMB!! And then STORM ZERO!! Mariah flounders out of the ring! Toni has Mariah’s wrist, and she refuses to let Mariah get away!
Toni drags Mariah back in, but Mariah YANKS Toni into buckles! Mariah runs up to HEADBUTT! Mariah reels Toni in, and steals STORM ZERO!!! Mariah drags Toni up for another fireman’s carry, but Toni fights free! Cradle, TONI WINS!!!
Winner: Toni Storm, by pinfall (NEW AEW Women’s World Champion)
A sudden turnaround, and Toni is triumphant! The hero has prevailed, and is now the historic FOUR-TIME AEW Women’s World Champion! Australia cheers for their leading lady, but this makes Toni and Mariah 1-1. Everyone loves a good trilogy, when and where will we get this story’s final act?
My Thoughts:
A great event for AEW here, though being tape delayed even just from Saturday morning in America to Saturday night, I had to watch out for spoilers. Didn’t work out, and I have unfollowed those accounts, but I kept most of this event untainted. Awesome opening tag match, and of course a great win for the Best Bout Bruvs. And logically, they set up big matches for Revolution. Ospreay VS Fletcher in a cage match is going to be awesome, but you can bet Mark Davis will be a deciding factor. Omega VS Konosuke for the International Championship will be awesome, but I guess Tony Khan is trying to smokescreen that happening with this series of matches. Cassidy VS Roddy will still be a great match, as will whatever we get after, but no, it’ll still be Omega VS Konosuke and I would think Omega wins.
The Brisbane Brawl was great stuff, but where the heck was Spike? How lame to bring that item back and then not bring it across the Pacific Ocean. But of course Yuta and Marina helped Moxley & Claudio win, Death Riders need that momentum going into Revolution. That’s not to say Cope is going to win just because of this, but it certainly sets up Cope for the comeback. Similarly, we have to see White & The Gunns reunite as the Bang Bang Gang going up against Claudio, Yuta & Pac for the trios titles, maybe even for Revolution. I still say this needs to come down to the Death Riders losing the trios titles so that all eggs are in one basket with the world title.
And then the Aussie win-loss record tonight went how I expected. Harley looked great against Mone, but yeah, of course Mone wins. Especially given they teased Mone VS Momo here. I would think Mone VS Momo is for the NJPW Strong Women’s Championship, with the main focus being that it’s about Momo beating Mone and having that victory really add to her résumé. Okada VS Buddy was also great, but similarly, Buddy just got to look great in defeat. At least they kept Buddy strong and added to Okada’s Heel Heat with that low blow. Buddy could probably fight his way to a rematch for Revolution or we get Brody coming for revenge, there should be a bit more out of this feud.
But the one win that was going to happen, the one I got spoiled on because it was so monumental, was Toni Storm getting her true revenge on Mariah May. It was a great match, roughly on par with All In: London, and it is only fitting that if Mariah won in her home country of England, Toni would win in her home of Australia. And as I noted, this does make Toni and Mariah 1-1 so you can bet they’ll try for the tiebreaker at some point, with Revolution being a logical place. A part of me wishes they’d kept the “Rookie” Toni gag going so that Rookie Toni would’ve been the one that beat Mariah, only to reveal she’s been Timeless all along, but the Timeless character is so good and fans love it so much, I guess they couldn’t resist going back to it.
