Malakai and Brody stand their ground, but Miro then stops at the end of the ramp. Malakai seems to know something. Is Miro showing mercy? Or is he still trying to understand that feeling clawing at his mind?
Backstage interview with Cole Karter.
Tony Schiavone says the FTW Championship is on the line, and what a journey it has been for Karter to reach AEW. Yes, it has been a great journey, but Karter is interrupted by “Powerhouse” Will Hobbs, and the FTW Champion himself, Ricky Starks. Yes, quite the journey. Rumor is, Karter was sleeping with the fishes, but now look at him. Karter’s here, swimming with sharks! Last week is behind Team Taz, Starks is looking to the future, and that future is Karter and Starks for the title. Starks has been FTW Champion for well over a year, and for a very good reason. That doesn’t change tonight.
Karter tells Ricky that his future is going to look a lot like his past, when Karter beats him for that title! Starks laughs that off, will he be dropping a dime tonight?
Best Friends w/ Orange Cassidy VS Jon Moxley & Wheeler Yuta w/ William Regal!
Chuck Taylor & Trent Beretta are back in action together, ready to get back in the AEW World Tag Team Championship scene. However, they’re running into the Blackpool Combat Club!

Winners: Jon Moxley & Wheeler Yuta, by pinfall
Cassidy complains that Chuck taught Yuta that move. But Freshly Squeezed frustrations aside, will Best Friends have to admit Yuta improved thanks to the Blackpool Combat Club? Will Yuta prove he’s better because of the BCC when he defeats Daniel Garcia at Death Before Dishonor?
AEW takes a closer look at the coming ROH World Championship match.
Ian Riccaboni says, “Claudio is perhaps more dangerous on the mat than anybody that Jonathan Gresham has faced to date as ROH World Champion. So Gresham not only has to worry about the raw, brute strength of Claudio, but also his submission expertise.” Gresham himself says, “On July 23rd, you (Claudio) will step in the ring with the Foundation. The Undisputed ROH World Champion. And that means you’re gonna have to outclass, outsmart and out wrestle ME, the best technical wrestler in the world. But you won’t.” Will the Octopus drag the Swiss Superman down to the depths and hold onto his title?
Tony Schiavone is in the ring.
He says it is time for a celebration of the NEW AEW World Tag Team Champions! #SwerveInOurGlory, Swerve Strickland & Keith Lee! AEW’s Shaq & Kobe took these titles in last week’s #TripleOrNothing title match with the Young Bucks and Team Taz! They make their entrances to the ring and oh, there’s even cake and champagne. But first, they join Schiavone in the ring. A well-deserved ovation for the new champions. Fyter Fest night one, what a night. Congratulations to the new champions, and fans sing “OH~ Bask in His Glory~!” Swerve says Keith can’t hog all the glory. “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!”
Before we get into this, Swerve being the mogul… Fans chant “You Deserve It!” and Kevin Gates is here to provide the festivities and show some love. Khaza album, go get that. Keith says before moving on, he has a question for Mr. Gates. That album’s good, but what about the deluxe? Keith means to express his eternal thanks, not just to Swerve, not just to the opportunity to gain these sweet titles, but to all of the fans. Hold on, Keith has to take his Sasuke Uchiha hoodie off, he gets hot. Take it off, Keith, take it off~! Thank you. Now listen, the team appreciates the fans because with the fans’ help, Keith & Swerve have ascended to the top!
And if it were up to Keith, he and Swerve don’t need to look down. If you want a chance at the titles, you better reach out. With that said, a toast is in order! May it be… limitless! But then someone tells them to hold on, and it’s “Smart” Mark Sterling! He says there will be NO toast! Keith, you idiot, they warned you! Hey, watch your tone. Sterling says Keith & Swerve got lucky with the titles, and Keith got lucky Swerve didn’t stab him in the back! And they’re not the only people that think this! The People Against Swerve Strickland petition, aka #PASS, is almost complete! They can remove Swerve from the roster!
Nese licks the frosting on the cake!! Sterling says the majority of AEW already signed, so it would be great to get the international rap superstar, Kevin Gates, to sign, too! Sterling saw Kevin in the back, got excited, he thought that was Young MA. It isn’t, but oh well. But Kevin, you are a fan, yes? So do the right thing for everyone and sign! Uh, that’s a no, Sterling. Oh, is it? Well he thought Kevin would say that. Because just like Swerve, he’s untrustworthy and his music sucks! Kevin Gates jumps the railing! Sterling says you do not touch him, or he will sue! Nese is also Sterling’s body guard, so there’s that.
But then Gates BOPS Nese! Sterling fans Nese off, but turns around into a CAKE SMASH! This is the second time this has happened to Sterling in history. “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” Will Swerve & Keith celebrate with just the champagne? And who will be the first to “reach out” to them for a title shot?
Backstage interview with The Butcher, The Blade, and the Dark Order.
Schiavone is with these two teams because John Silver & Alex Reynolds wanted to say something to the Butcher & Blade. Silver says he’s the Meat Man, so his favorite wrestler is The Butcher! Look at that mustache! And Silver has a gift for The Butcher. It’s a T-shirt that reads, “BUTCH!” Blade says this is stupid. Oh, don’t worry, they got him a shirt, too! But it also says “BUTCH.” Oops. Blade & Butcher attack! They choke the Dark Order with those shirts, then they POP-UP KICK Reynolds! Butcher tosses Reynolds into the wall, but Hangman Page makes the save before Silver gets any worse! Will the Cowboy take down Butcher & Blade for what they did to his friends?
Christian Cage & Luchasaurus VS The Varsity Blonds!
Captain Charisma hates Jungle Boy so much, he even hates those that merely resemble Jungle Boy! Luchasaurus already wrecked Brian Pillman Jr. & Griff Garrison on his own, will he and Christian make the Varsity Blonds extinct?
The teams sort out and Christian starts against BPJ. Fans rally, BPJ dares Christian to talk bad on his late father now. But then Christian tags out to Luchasaurus. BPJ rushes in, into a HEADBUTT! Luchasaurus looms over BPJ, drags him up, and shoves him at Griff! Griff tags in, circles with Luchasaurus, and Griff dodges Luchasaurus to ROLLING ELBOW! And ROLLING ELBOW again! Luchasaurus stays up, BPJ tags in, ROLLING ELBOW and SUPERKICK! But Luchasaurus is still standing?! The Blonds run, double shoulder tackle but Luchasaurus just rebounds to DOUBLE LARIAT!
Fans boo as Luchasaurus drags BPJ up in a choke grip. Luchasaurus gives BPJ a CHOKE SLAM! And then he drags Griff up to choke grip and CHOKE SLAM onto BPJ! Christian tags in to pick at the bones like a vulture, cover, Christian and Luchasaurus win!
Winners: Christian Cage & Luchasaurus, by pinfall
Captain Charisma smiles, but then he tells Luchasaurus to hoist him up. They mock how JB would ride on Luchasaurus’ shoulders, but wait! IS THAT JUNGLE BOY!? YES IT IS!! Christian tells Luchasaurus to go after him, but JB has a chair! The former friends stare down, who swings first? Luchasaurus MOVES ASIDE! He was only with Christian as long as JB wasn’t around! JB gets in, Christian runs away! JB pursues Christian into the crowd and up the stairs! Fans are thunderous, Jurassic Express rides again! When and where will Captain Charisma face the karma he’s collected?
Backstage interview with Gunn Club.
Lexi Nair is with Billy, Austin and Colten and says last week, The Acclaimed challenged them to a match, only for the Gunn Club to reject it. Why? Billy says, “Yo, listen!” Colten asks, “Why would we accept a match when we carried them for months? And by the way, we have cut them out of our lives.” Austin says he is sick of Max Caster putting them in his raps every single week, so here’s what will happen. Friday on Rampage, Austin VS Caster 1v1, IN A RAP BATTLE! Winner gets to pick the stipulations on their tag match: the when, the where, the what, but Austin’s in a rut. Heh, he’s already warmed up, dawg! But will Austin even touch Platinum Max on the mic when there’s a grudge match on the line?
Good ol’ JR joins commentary!
Jim Ross is here, so you know it’s the second hour! And yes, it’s gonna be a slobber knocker!
FTW Championship Open Challenge: Ricky Starks VS Cole Karter!
Absolute Ricky Starks put out the word, and that word reached this diamond in the rough even in Orlando, Florida! But will Cole use this pressure to turn into gold? Or will Starks show he’s not even worth two dimes in AEW?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who truly embodies the FTW mindset!
Starks and Karter circle, fans rally up, and many chant for “RICKY! RICKY!” Ricky poses, Karter rushes in, but Starks kicks low and CLUBS Karter! Starks CHOPS Karter, bumps him off buckles and ROCKS him with a right! Fans fire up as Ricky air guitars then he whips corner to corner to back elbow hard! Starks whips Karter back the other way, Karter bounces off into a LARIAT! Starks poses extra hard, drags Karter up, but Karter fires off haymakers! Fans boo but Karter whips and DROPKICKS Starks down! Karter bumps Starks off buckles, whips him corner to corner but Starks reverses.
Karter BOOTS back, hops up, and CROSSBODIES! Starks staggers up, Karter clotheslines him out to the apron, then DECKS him to the floor! Starks staggers up and is shocked! He wants a break but Karter eggs him on as Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Starks steadies himself, the ring count climbs, but Starks gets back in. Karter is raring to go, but the ref keeps him back. Karter still rushes in, but Starks FLAPJACK HOTSHOTS him down! Starks suckered Karter, and now stomps him down! Starks hops up to FALLING ELBOW! Starks stands over Karter, drags him up by his arm, and scoops to SLAM him down. Starks then runs the ropes, for the ABSOLUTE ELBOW! Cover, TWO! Starks slaps Karter around for kicking out, then he stalks Karter to a corner. Fans rally for Starks but Karter throws body shots. Starks ROCKS Karter, and again, and then brings him around to wrench.
Karter ROCKS Starks but Starks kicks low. Starks knuckle locks, CHOPS Karter, then goes up and up for a bit of Old School! Starks shows off a bit, then leaps to CLUB Karter down! Starks flexes and fans fire up! Starks then covers, TWO! Starks keeps on Karter with a chinlock and grinds him down. Karter endures, Starks thrashes him around, but Karter fights up to his feet. Karter throws body shots but Starks CHOPS him off his feet! Fyter Fest returns to single picture, Starks whips Karter to a corner but Karter reverses and now Starks bounces off buckles into a LARIAT! Karter rallies with more clotheslines, then BOOTS Starks down!
Fans boo but Karter grins as he brings Starks up to ripcord and ELBOW! Cover, TWO! Karter is frustrated but he cools off and waits on Starks to get up. Fans rally for Starks, Karter reels Starks in and suplexes. Starks slips out, spins Karter around, gets him up, but Karter slips off and shoves. Starks dodges, Karter hurdles the spear! Fireman’s carry, T K O!! But Karter isn’t done there, he goes up top! 450 FLOPS as Starks moves! SPEAR!! Cover, Starks wins!
Winner: Ricky Starks, by pinfall (still FTW Champion)
Taz’s belt stays with Taz’s guy, and Starks wants a mic. Starks says, “Atlanta! Wow. While that was my very first challenge, I came out on top. But guess what? I got a little bit more in the tank, baby. And I’m feeling like this is the right time to keep it going. So, for the guy right here in the yellow Wu-Tang shirt, this is for you! Let’s get another challenge out here!” Taz doesn’t get what Starks is up to, but here comes DANHAUSEN! Fans fire up as the Very Nice, Very Evil Overlord is here with a mic!
“RICHARD! It is I, Danhausen! Danhausen heard you had some sort of open challenge for that wonderful FTW Championship or some sort. So Danhausen would like to accept that challenge RIGHT NOW!” Fans wanna see it, too! Starks says whoa, hold on. When he said it was the right time, he didn’t mean right now. C’mon, guys, give him a break. Starks needs time to get right. So how about this? Next week, Dynamite, go watch it at home, it will be ABSOLUTE STARKS VS “MEH~ DANHAUSEN!” for THE FTW Championship! Starks still accepts Danhausen as his challenger, but will waiting seven days fail to save Starks from a curse?
Backstage interview with Athena, Kris Statlander & Willow Nightingale.
Schiavone knows this was meant to be a Six Woman Tag, but Stokely Hathaway told Kris to sit this one out. Yeah, it’s pretty obvious why, and Kris even bops herself on the head to remind us of when she bopped Stokely. But as Willow sees it, Leila Grey not being here tonight is a sign. Athena agrees. This is an opportunity to reevaluate what they all want here in AEW. For instance, that AEW Women’s Championship would look amazing on Kris. And then the AEW TBS Championship would go around Athena’s waist. Yeah, that’s a good idea. So don’t worry, Willow & Athena got this! They can crush some baddies! Hands in, c’mon!
Athena puts her hand in, then Kris puts hers in, one, two, three, CRUSH the Baddies! But will Athena & Willow be able to serve up Jade Cargill’s first loss in AEW period?
Dynamite returns with Schiavone back in the ring.
He introduces the simultaneous ROH, AAA and IWGP Tag Team Champions who will defend those ROH titles at Death Before Dishonor in Best 2 Out of 3 Falls, it’s F T R!! Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood, the #ThreeBeltTopGuys, make their way out and Atlanta fires up. FTR joins Schiavone in the ring, and Schiavone brings up the fact FTR VS Briscoes is a rematch from perhaps one of the greatest tag title matches in 2022. Cash says first off, he’s never going to get used to that kind of reaction from the fans, so he thanks them for that. Second, Cash isn’t sure if anyone here knows this, but 2022 has been a decent year for FTR.
FTR has had big moments, big matches, and perhaps no other match was bigger than Supercard of Honor, because for the first time ever, FTR stood across from Jay & Mark Briscoe and they went to war! No match was bigger than that, until this Saturday, Death Before Dishonor, FTR VS Briscoes II. Cash respects everything the Briscoes have done in tag team wrestling these past 20 YEARS. But… ROH DBD, 2 outta 3 falls, all that respect for the Briscoes won’t let the Briscoes take what FTR has worked to get the ROH titles, or any of the titles they have! FTR will still respect the Briscoes, but if #DemBoys think they’re leaving the champions, they’ll have to take the belts from FTR’s cold, dead hands!
Dax sets down all his belts so that he can say, “There’s this five year old girl back home, and her parents took her to this routine check-up at the doctor’s, and he was listening to her chest, and listening to her back, and he heard something weird. It was an arrhythmia, an irregular heartbeat. And the doctor said, ‘Hey, don’t worry, parents, just go over to the cardiologist, just get some x-rays, get a CT scan, an MRI, we’ll see what’s going on.'” So the family did that, and it turns out the little girl had a hole in her heart. The doctor told the parents that if this little girl fought hard, she could overcome this and that hole would close on its own.
But if not, they’d have to do open heart surgery, a big risk for a five year old. Fast forward three years, the girl is now eight and she goes back to the cardiologist to do the x-rays and the MRI again. The hole is completely closed! Fans cheer for that happy ending because that little girl worked and fought her ass off to make herself healthy. And yes, that little girl is Dax’s own daughter. Fans cheer even more knowing that, and Dax says that if his little girl will fight that heart for something that isn’t promised to her, well then Daddy’s gotta do the same! Saturday night, Daddy Dax is gonna fight that hard to bring home the ROH World Tag Team Championships and a legacy his daughter can be proud of!
Fans cheer for FTR again, and Dax continues to say that he loves them, too. Saturday night, ROH DBD on PPV, “Briscoes, I’m gonna fight like an eight year old girl. And I’ma beat your ass! Top Guys, out!” Cash & Dax are fired up and ready to fight like never before! Will they get that two fall victory to stay triple champions?
Backstage interview with Jay Lethal, Sonjay Dutt & Satnam Singh.
Sonjay has the shark fin on his head for Shark Week as Lexi Nair says that also at ROH Death Before Dishonor, Lethal challenges Samoa Joe for the ROH World Television Championship. But… Christopher Daniels did also- Whoa, whoa, whoa. Is Lexi bringing up the Fallen Angel? Sonjay doesn’t care about Christopher Daniels! Saturday, live on PPV, Lethal becomes the NEW ROH TV Champion! And it’s a shame they have to wait for Saturday to do that, because Lethal would’ve done it tonight, would’ve done it last week, but Samoa Joe just doesn’t show up for work. What is going on here?
But wait! Christopher Daniels is here and he says he’s going to explain something to Lethal! Joe isn’t going to come here and waste his breath talking to Lethal, he’ll just get his job done at DBD! But if Lethal wants to get into the ring, Daniels will be waiting on Rampage! Talk tough then! What the hell is with that guy? How dare he interrupt them! Will Lethal and the Fallen Angel battle it out before Lethal and Joe finally have it out?
Athena & Willow Nightingale VS The Baddies!
Whether because Stokely is afraid of getting bopped or because Leila Grey still hasn’t been accepted into the group, this goes from 3v3 to 2v2. And while making their entrances, Stokely has the mic to cut the music and say he has good news and bad news! The bad news: Leila was unable to compete tonight. Jade pretends to shed a tear, but Stokely says the good news is that, with special thanks to the Cochran Law Firm of Atlanta, Kris is BANNED FROM RINGSIDE! Guess what? Ain’t gonna be no head slapping up in here!
Jade says boo hoo for them. Hotlanta has Jermaine Dupri in the house, they’ve got The Baddies in the house, and Jade’s family in the house! This is Jade’s territory, and she is gonna show us how she was #ThatBitch, is #ThatBitch, and will always be #ThatBitch. Atlanta cheers on their own, but will having homefield advantage fail to be an advantage?
The teams sort out, Athena starts against Jade, this could be a TBS title preview. They circle, approach, but Jade dodges and dusts herself off. Kiera tags in, she and Athena tie up. Kiera arm-drags but then Athena arm-drags back, and Athena dodges but so does Kiera. Athena ducks a kick, Kiera jumps a sweep, but Kiera throws Athena by her hair, only for Athena to kip right up! Athena ROCKS Kiera and puts her in a corner! Athena taunts Jade, storms up on Kiera, and she puts Kiera in the corner. Tag to Willow and fans fire up. Kiera shoots in, waistlocks, but Willow pries free to switch and shove. They ram shoulders, but Willow flexes!
Fans fire up, Kiera gets a leg and trips Willow! Things speed up, Willow swings but Keira ducks but Willow dodges the dropkick! Somersault senton then a BASEMENT SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Willow drags Kiera over, tags Athena, and Willow scoop SLAMS Kiera, to then scoop Athena, to SLAM her onto Kiera! Fans fire up as Athena covers, TWO!! Kiera survives and Stokely seethes, but Jade ignores Athena’s taunts. Kiera shoves Athena away and Jade gets a cheap shot in! So Athena DECKS her for it! Athena dodges Kiera, throws her out, then tags Willow. Willow hurries to the apron to DOUBLE BLOCKBUSTER the Baddies!
Fans fire up with Willow as she sets the Baddies up for Athena. Athena goes up and out to CROSSBODY onto everyone! Fans fire up with Athena and Willow while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Willow puts Kiera in, hurries after her, and drags her up to wrench. Tag to Athena, she goes up the corner and CLUBS Kiera’s arm! Athena wrenches Kiera, tags Willow, YANKS the arm, and then Willow goes up to CLUB Kiera’s arm! Willow drags Kiera up, wrenches again, tags Athena back in, and Athena KICKS the arm! Kiera staggers away but Athena is after her and that bad arm. Another wrench, and then Athena knuckle locks. Athena goes up but Kiera YANKS her down and SUPERKICKS her! Tag to Jade and Jade EuroUppers Athena to a corner. Jade dribbles and runs, to DUNK on Athena! Jade whips Athena corner to corner, then DUNKS on her again!
Jade wrenches Athena and pump handles, FLIPPING FACEBUSTER! Cover, TWO!! Athena survives and Stokely is upset, but Jade drags Athena over to tag Kiera. The Baddies mug Athena, Kiera fires off haymakers but Athena forearms! Kiera snapmares Athena to KICK her on the back. Cover, TWO! Kiera drags Athena up, whips but Athena reverses, only for Kiera to tilt-o-whirl DDT! Athena flounders to a corner, Kiera runs in, BOOT WASH! Cover, ROPEBREAK! Athena holds on quite literally while Fyter Fest returns to single picture. Willow rallies the fans but Kiera drags Athena up and over.
Athena throws body shots, fireman’s carries, and DEATH VALLEY DRIVERS! Hot tag to Willow! She DECKS Jade, CLOBBERS Kiera, then CLOBBERS Kiera again! Willow CHOPS and CHOPS and whips Kiera, then hit a SPINEBUSTER! High stack but Jade breaks it! Jade throws Willow out, then dares Athena to bring it.

Jade BOOTS Athena down! Athena goes to a corner, Jade runs in, but Athena BOOTS her crossover away!

Jade is still spotless, even in tag team competition! But will the Fallen Goddess rise again like the moon to eclipse #ThatBitchShow?
Backstage interview with #ThunderStorm.
Schiavone is with Toni Storm & the AEW Women’s World Champion, Thunder Rosa, but has an announcement, too. Fight for the Fallen 2022, in support of Oceana, the non-profit organization dedicated to defending marine life and the world’s oceans, will hold an AEW Women’s World Championship match, Rosa VS Miyu Yamashita. Rosa is excited to have this match because she knows Miyu is the best of the East, the best of Japan, and Miyu is exactly what everyone says she is. But Rosa wants her to know, in both Spanish, Japanese and English, the title is staying home with Rosa!
But of course, Britt Baker and Jamie Hayter have to invade. Britt says less Rosa promos! Take this mic away. But good luck next week. JK, hope you lose! But we should also give the people what they really want. On Rampage, it will be Hayter and Yours Truly, Britt Baker, DMD. See you Friday. Will the Doctor and her assistant get back on track with the finale of Fyter Fest?
Speaking of Rampage: Fyter Fest!
Not only will we see Britt Baker & Jamie Hayter back in action, but after the brawl earlier tonight, John Silver & Hangman Page take on The Butcher & The Blade! Will the Cowboy and the Meat Man avenge Reynolds? Plus, it’s a showdown of Matt Sydal’s students as we get Lee Moriarty VS Dante Martin! Yes, there’s also Max Caster VS Austin Gunn in a Rap Battle, but ALSO, Jay Lethal VS Christopher Daniels in a Death Before Dishonor tune-up! Will Lethal make the Fallen Angel regret standing up for Samoa Joe?
The ring crew prepares the arena for the main event.
The ring ropes are being wrapped with barbed wire, and the shark cage is being lowered! The Jericho Appreciation Society will be stuck inside that cage so they can’t help Chris Jericho against Eddie Kingston, will they have no choice but to watch the Mad King bleed the Painmaker dry?
Barbed Wire Everywhere Deathmatch: Eddie Kingston VS “The Painmaker” Chris Jericho!
AEW returns and even Justin Roberts’ mic has barbed wire on it! Now THAT is “barbed wire everywhere.” The JAS is forced to make their entrance and be put inside the cage! Daniel Garcia, Jake Hager, Matthew Menard and Angelo Parker don’t like it, but AEW management is making them, so they have no choice. Ruby Soho is watching from ringside, she is the keeper of the key and the lift on that cage! And she hoists the JAS up high for all to see. But now, the PAINMAKER makes his entrance! And now Eddie Kingston makes his entrance, arms wrapped for a brawl! And he snatches Justin Robert’s barbed wire covered mic, to BASH Jericho with it!
The ref rings the bell to get this on record and fans are fired up already as we literally hear every SMACK of the mic! Eddie checks, “Is this on?” Fans cheer, “YES~!” Eddie tells Jericho, “You’re gonna bleed! Shark Week!” With the shameless plug taken care of, Eddie goes back to SCRAPING Jericho with the barbed wire mic! Then he punches the wound, and digs his fingers into it! Fans are thunderous for Eddie as he throws his shirt off. Jericho bails out but Eddie pursues, to CHOKE him with his shirt! Eddie drags Jericho around and BITES his head! Eddie is like a shark as he goes after the blood!
Eddie punches away on Jericho, SMACKS him off the timekeeper’s table, but Jericho grabs the ring bell! Jericho SMACKS Eddie with it, and yes! The bell has barbed wire around it, too! Jericho SMACKS Eddie with the bell again, then puts it back to bring Eddie around. Jericho finds a table with barbed wire all over it, but Eddie blocks the bump! Eddie resists, but Jericho still pushes him down. Eddie throws body shots, and he SMACKS Jericho off the barbed wire table! Jericho is already bleeding but Eddie is going to make him bleed more! Eddie punches the wound, puts Jericho in the ring, and fans fire up as Eddie throws more haymakers!
Eddie drags Jericho up and fans fire up as he whips Jericho into the barbed wire ropes! Jericho writhes but fans want more! Eddie obliges, he wipes Jericho’s blood all over his chest, and he brings over another barbed wire covered table! Eddie sets that in place, and then he SCRAPES Jericho’s forehead off the barbed wire ropes! Eddie finds a chair wrapped in barbed wire, and he SMACKS Jericho on the back! And then SMACKS him again! Eddie throws more punches into the bloody forehead, then he reels Jericho in. Jericho resists the bomb, throws body shots and forearms, then hoists Eddie up top!
Jericho throws more hands, ROCKS Eddie, then climbs up! Jericho stands up to SUPER STEINER Eddie onto the barbed wire table! Eddie’s legs are caught up in the steel while Dynamite goes picture in picture!
The ref checks on Eddie, helps him get free, but Jericho storms over to rain down fists on Eddie! Jericho then drags Eddie up and back suplexes him onto the barbed wire! Now Eddie’s back gets scraped up! Ruby can barely watch! Jericho pushes Eddie around, has the legs, and he turns him, WALLS OF JERICHO on top of barbed wire! Eddie endures being bent and scraped, and he fights up out of the barbed wire to grab at Jericho’s leg! Jericho falls, Eddie turns things back over, and he kicks Jericho away into the barbed wire ropes! Jericho writhes and Eddie again has to be freed from the barbed wire.
Jericho hobbles, Eddie manages to stand, but he is wary of the barbed wire nearby. Eddie throws haymakers but Jericho throws them back and Fyter Fest returns to single picture. They throw hands, Eddie RAKES Jericho’s eyes! Eddie whips Jericho into more barbed wire ropes! Eddie drags Jericho up, fans fire up and Eddie CROTCHES Jericho on the top rope! Jericho’s fireballs are getting scraped up! Jericho gets himself free but that hurts his leg. Eddie makes room for the one barbed wire table, and he throws hands on Jericho. Eddie joins Jericho on the apron, they brawl up there, and Eddie gets the edge with a flurry of fists.
Eddie reels Jericho in, lines up the shot, and SUPERPLEXES Jericho through the barbed wire table!! It wasn’t without its double-edged nature as Eddie gets some wires to the back, but fans lose their minds as Jericho is stuck in the barbed wire thread! The ref helps get Jericho up, but here comes TAY CONTI! The Blackbelt Brazilian isn’t officially part of the Jericho Appreciation Society, so she was exempt from the shark cage punishment! She rushes down to ringside and brawls with Ruby! Tay tackles Ruby, rains down forearms, but here comes Anna Jay! Anna drags Tay off Ruby and the friends argue. But then Anna DECKS Ruby!!
Fans boo as Number 99 betrays one friend to reunite with another, and TayJay POSTS Ruby! Anna then grabs the cage controls and presses the lower button! Fans boo as Tay snatches the key and unlocks the cage! The JAS is freed, they get to the ring and attack Eddie! They stomp away on Eddie 4v1! But here comes the friends of Eddie Kingston! Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, Claudio Castagnoli, and Ortiz with a MADBALL SOCK! They fight the JAS at ringside, Claudio suplexes Parker and Moxley throws hands on Hager! Ortiz SMACKS Jericho with that madball, Eddie reels Jericho in for an EXPLODER through a barbed wire table!! Cover, TWO!?!?
No one can believe Jericho survives, but Eddie grabs a chair! Eddie aims, but Jericho hits a CODE BREAKER! double-edged as the chair still hits Jericho in the face! Jericho crawls to a cover, TWO!! Jericho checks his nose, that is fine but he still has blood from his forehead. Jericho gets the chair to SMACK Eddie! Eddie guarded with his arm but the arm just takes damage now! Jericho SMACKS Eddie’s knee, SMACKS his arms, and then sets the chair on Eddie’s body. Jericho runs to the ropes and springboards, LIONSAULT but Eddie CHUCKS the chair! The chair takes Jericho outta the air! Jericho sputters and clutches his legs, he stands up into the URAKEN!! Cover, TWO!?!?!
Eddie is furious and he hurries out to get some loose barbed wire! He wraps Jericho up in it, for a BARBED WIRE STRETCH PLUM!!! Jericho endures, but SAMMY GUEVARA appears! And he SUPERKICKS Eddie down!! The Spanish God is back after Blood & Guts II, and he rains down fists on Eddie! Jericho wraps his arm in barbed wire while Sammy sets Eddie up! But Eddie whips Sammy, only for Sammy to reverse and send Eddie into a BARBED WIRE JUDAS EFFECT!!! Cover, Jericho wins!
Winner: Chris Jericho, by pinfall
The Painmaker stays undefeated in AEW, but it took everything Jericho had in AEW, from the JAS to the extended family! Sammy sets Eddie up again, and Jericho aims the barbed wire. But Eddie LOW BLOWS Sammy, and he whips Jericho into Sammy! But then Sammy saves Jericho from the Uraken! Eddie tosses Sammy out and pursues Jericho to the apron. HIP TOSS onto the barbed wire mattress! Straight out of Omega VS Moxley from Full Gear 2019, Kingston throws Jericho into a spider web and Jericho is convulsing! Eddie made Jericho bleed, but he didn’t win the war. Is this blood feud going to continue? What more can they possibly do to each other?!
My Thoughts:
What an awesome episode for Dynamite! Great opener from Brody VS Darby, but I figured Brody would win. And of course Sting and Malakai get involved. This is of course setting up House of Black VS Sting & Darby and that is going to be awesome stuff. And Miro showing up was also intriguing. His sunglasses looked like it had two different kinds of lenses, maybe to hide a shiner, or maybe to hide Miro’s one eye mutating like how Malakai Black and Julia Hart have. Best Friends VS Mox & Yuta was great stuff, especially with Cassidy and Regal on commentary. Cassidy finally got angry, I would love to see Cassidy VS Yuta at some point. Maybe even Cassidy VS Moxley for the Interim Championship at All Out if CM Punk isn’t ready to come back yet.
We got a great ROH World Championship vignette, but that feels like a sampler from a full Countdown type special. I said on the AEW Dark article, I won’t be able to get Death Before Dishonor covered, but that is one wild card. Speaking of which, great promo from FTR. Cash & Dax are all fired up, 2 outta 3 falls could make it go either way, but I’d be surprised if FTR lost the titles while ROH still isn’t quite put back together. The interview promo turning into a brawl between Butcher, Blade, Dark Order and Hangman was decent, but the resulting tag match will be great. I would think Hangman & Silver win, mostly because Hangman needs to get going again.
Great segment with Swerve In Our Glory, Sterling and Nese. Good plug of some celebrity friends, and Sterling is 0-2 against cakes. I don’t know if Sterling is going to be dragged into another tag match, but someone has to team with Nese if he thinks he can take on Swerve & Keith. Christian & Luchasaurus of course destroy the Varsity Blonds, but I’m surprised Jungle Boy returned now. And I’m also surprised Luchasaurus turned back to Face so quickly, but it was also really fun that they did it this way. JB will surely get a big win over Christian at All Out, and then maybe Jurassic Express gets back in the tag title scene. Swerve & Keith VS JB & Luchasaurus 2v2 would be pretty awesome.
Fun little promo from the Gunn Club to call out The Acclaimed, but we all know that rap battle is going Caster’s way. And then The Acclaimed will come up with a tag stipulation, probably for All Out, and then they’ll win that to also make a move up towards the tag titles. Great promo from Starks referencing that Cole Karter was Two Dimes Troy Donovan in NXT, and we got a very good match out of them. But of course Starks retains, and we’re getting a great match for the FTW title in Starks VS Danhausen. I would love if Danhausen found a way to win, because then Team Taz will make Hook choose between them and #Hookhausen.
Good promo from Willow, Athena and Kris to respond to the change from trios to duo tag, and same for Stokely and Jade. Really good match out of Athena & Willow VS Jade & Kiera, but I feel like Kiera and Athena had the trickier time meshing. Of course Jade wins, but of course Willow takes the loss, we’re still going to see Jade VS Athena for the TBS Championship. Meanwhile, I’m starting to feel like Rosa & Storm when it comes to Britt & Hayter always showing up around them. Britt could be feuding with someone else to build up other Faces, but of course Britt is going to go right for the top champion instead. Anyway, Rosa VS Miyu Yamashita happening next week is great stuff, but I would think Rosa wins, and Rosa will end up facing either Britt or Storm at All Out.
Good promo from Lethal, Sonjay and Christopher Daniels. And I totally expected Lethal VS Daniels to happen, so good to see that happening. That will be a really good match but of course Lethal is going to win so he has momentum going into Death Before Dishonor. But I would love for Samoa Joe to show up on Rampage to get at Lethal before their match and really muddy the math. And of course, that main event was wild! Well, it was a bit cheesy for “The Painmaker” to pop out of the Codyvator like that, and a bit silly but also really clever to have barbed wire on a mic and on the ring bell, but other than that, wild stuff.
I can’t believe Anna Jay joins Tay and the JAS so soon! And all the overbooking was fine, it was only natural with the JAS being nearby in that cage. But then Sammy reverses Eddie’s reversal, what kind of BS is that? Just let Sammy feed Eddie to Jericho’s Judas Effect at that point. Jericho of course wins with all the different assists, but then Eddie stands tall, so this has to continue. I am not just kayfabing, I have no idea where they’re going next. Maybe an I Quit match? It won’t physically outdo this, but it’s about the character work of neither man wanting to give the other the satisfaction. Plus, twice we’ve had Eddie get Jericho in this Stretch Plum and it not finish things, so maybe third time is the charm and Eddie makes Jericho say “I Quit” at All Out.
My Score: 9.2/10

Winner: Mark Davis, by pinfall (NEW AEW National Champion)
Talk about a handicap! Callis AND Ricochet gave Davis quite a considerable one, and now Davis has his first singles title in AEW! The Jurassic Express National Tour has just been run off the road, but will Jack be able to get his revenge?
Collision returns, and Jack Perry is on the phone.
He tells someone, “Let’s do it. Thank you, guys.” Jack ends his call, then shows his frustration. Winning the National Championship in his hometown, in front of his friends and family, was one of the proudest moments of his entire life. And yet Ricochet and Callis had to end that for him. But he happens to know that Chris Jericho & The Hurt Syndicate are looking for two more partners for Stadium Stampede. And Jack go to thinking, the show is called Double or Nothing. So how about instead of two, Jack brings FOUR! The ELITE! Jack, The Bucks, and KENNY OMEGA! See you there. Ricochet may have just messed himself over, will he regret ever getting involved tonight?

Callis says he’s thrilled! Jack just gifted him his ultimate fantasy! A chance to beat up Jericho, The Bucks AND Kenny, all on one night? Callis would’ve paid good money for that, and Jack, you dumbass, just gave it away from free! Ricochet says The Don Callis Family must be joining The Demand for Stadium Stampede. Well, given the way Ricochet just used that golf club, the National Champion will gladly stand beside him!
Ricochet says playing golf with Tony Khan has really improved his swing, so see you all there. Callis says yes, let’s go have a drink at the 19th Hole and talk about which of the many members of the Don Callis Family are going to join Ricochet in the slaughterhouse! Ricochet says oh yes, so many great choices to choose from! Callis & Ricochet head out, just how massive will this Stadium Stampede match get?
AEW Women’s World Championship Eliminator: The Divine Dominion VS Ruthie Slay & Rachel Ley!
Megan Bayne & Lena Kross are so dominant, they don’t even think this match is going to last five minutes! But while there’s a time limit, will there be no limit to how devastating the Megasus & Aussie Amazon can be? Or will Slay & Ley manage to survive the day?

They’ve made it two minutes but that might be all! Tag to Lena, she and Megan get Slay up, DIVINE INTERVENTION! Cover, Divine Dominion wins!
Winners: The Divine Dominion, by pinfall (denies Slay & Ley a title opportunity)
Two minutes and 15 seconds is all Slay & Ley got, will any team last even that long? Or will the Divine Dominion continue to dominate AEW until the end of time?
BREAKING NEWS for Double or Nothing!
The Triangle of Madness may have misted Persephone and injured Alex Windsor, but that only heaps on more trouble for the champion! Thekla must now defend her AEW Women’s World Championship in a FATAL 4 WAY! Thekla VS Jamie Hayter VS Kris Statlander VS Hikaru Shida, is The Toxic Spider about to get squashed? Or will she need her Sisters of Sin now more than ever?
BREAKING NEWS for Dynamite!
The annual tradition is back! The 2026 Owen Hart Memorial Tournament begins, with the brackets for both men’s and women’s divisions to be announced on Wednesday! Who makes the cut? And who will become the King & Queen of Harts?
Don Callis speaks, again.
“Just moments away from the AEW World title match between Darby Allin and Pac, and gentlemen, just wanted to let you know that the Don Callis Family, no matter who wins tonight, the Don Callis Family will be waiting for the winner. This Wednesday on Dynamite, the Don Callis Family will take the AEW World title from one of you. And y’know, it’s already been a great night, a big night, for the Don Callis Family! We won gold, but can’t wait to get some more. And on the subject of that, Okada has had to go to Japan to take care of some very important family business. But don’t worry, lads, because I have someone in mind to take his spot this Wednesday in the world title match.
“And it is none other than the firstborn of the Don Callis Family, Konosuke Takeshita, The Alpha!” Takeshita steps in, and Callis tells him, “You’re gonna be the world champion! If you listen to me like you always have, you will be successful, and you will finally fulfill the destiny that I had for you when I plucked you out of obscurity and made you the replacement for Kenny Omega. You’re the best wrestler in the world when you’ve got my game plan in your head. Go win the title.” Konosuke tells Don that he was going to take the International Championship, but now he is the person who will bring the world title back to the Don Callis Family! Unlike Okada.
Takeshita heads out, will he still make himself a double champion when he adds #PrettyPlatinum to the NJPW World Television Championship?
“Speedball” Mike Bailey w/ Kevin Knight VS Kiran Grey!
This match was on standby in case the Divine Dominion didn’t need all five minutes of their time, and now it’s a chance for Speedball to shine! But will he keep his momentum going from last Wednesday’s super show? Or will he get lost in the Grey Area?
Grey is already starting trouble as he pushes Bailey. The ref backs him off, then the bell rings. Grey runs up, but into a BOOT! Bailey then PENALTY KICKS, STANDING KNEE-SAULT, then Bailey waits on Grey. Grey ducks the buzzsaw and bails out! The fans boo but Bailey TRIANGLE JUMP MOONSAULTS! Down goes Grey and the fans fire up! Bailey daps it up with The Jet, then he climbs up the corner. But Grey goes after him! They brawl up top, Grey fires a flurry, but Bailey fires back! Bailey SHOVES Grey down, takes aim, but Grey hits the ropes! Bailey is tripped up onto his speedballs, but Grey dribbles him off the buckles!
Grey CLUBS Bailey into a Tree of Woe, then soaks up the heat before he stomps Bailey! Grey tells Bailey to stay down but Bailey grabs that leg! Bailey uses that to drag himself back up, and he ROCKS Grey again! Bailey dribbles Grey off buckles, then HEADBUTTS him! Grey falls, Bailey takes aim, ULTIMATE WEAPON! Cover, Bailey wins!
Winner: “Speedball” Mike Bailey, by pinfall
A fast win for Speedball, and Knight gets the mic. he says he likes that! Speedball is red hot right now. And though The Jet didn’t get two belts on Wednesday, he’s still the Face of TNT. Now, the future of AEW is wide open, so why not they make it to the top together? They shake hands on it, will JetSpeed shift gears to become a Two Man Power Trip? What belt(s) will they aim for next?
AEW World Championship No Count Outs Match: Darby Allin VS PAC!
Anticipating how wild this one can get given the nature of their grudge, AEW decided to remove some of the obstacles standing in their way. They can’t do anything they want, but they can definitely go anywhere they want here in the SoFi Center! But will Darby even up the career series between them? Or will it be 3-1 in favor of The Bastard?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who takes this belt to Dynamite!
The bell rings and the fans rally behind Darby. Darby hops outside already, and he goes around the crowd to be on the golfing green! This is No Count Outs, so he wants to take full advantage of it already! He dares Pac to join him, so Pac heads over to the green! They fire hands on the rough and the fans fire up! Darby ducks, fires hands then HEADBUTTS Pac down! Darby brings Pac up but Pac BACKDROPS Darby! Pac then brings Darby closer to the bunker! Pac suplexes, Darby fights free, and he fires hands! Darby runs up, CODE RED into the sand trap! The fans go nuts seeing what is surely the first one of those ever!
Pac gets himself out of the sand and ends up on the fairway. Darby pursues, runs up, and ROCKS Pac1 they’re near another sand trap, and Darby SHOTGUNS Pac into the sand! The fans cheer “A E DUB! A E DUB!” for making this madness a reality! Darby goes after Pac, but Pac throws sand in Darby’s eyes! Pac then hauls Darby up to BELLY2BELLY SUPLEX Darby into the sand trap! Darby sputters, but Pac clamps on the BRUTALIZER! The ref reprimands, this isn’t Falls Count Anywhere! But fans know “This is Awesome!” as Pac makes Darby suffer! Darby sputters again as Pac lets him go, then shakes out the sand in his boots.
Pac drags Darby up with a headlock, but then decides to fireman’s carry! And gorilla press to THROW Darby back into the bunker! The fans boo but Pac soaks up that heat. Darby sputters and coughs while Collision goes picture in picture.
Darby sputters as he sits up, but Pac brings him back around. Pac brings Darby around, dumps him down, and soaks up more heat. Pac then brings Darby along the fairway, CLUBS him on the neck, and stalks him as they return to the crowd. They then return to ringside, then the ring itself, and Pac covers, TWO!

Pac frowns while Darby flounders out of the ring. The fans rally for Darby while Pac takes his time going to the outside. Pac looks under the ring, and he brings out a table! The fans cheer but the ref reprimands, this isn’t No Disqualifications! Pac still sets the table up nearby, making sure it lines up with the corner. Pac puts Darby on the table, then climbs up said corner. The fans freak out, anticipating what Pac is planning, and he steadies himself as he takes aim. Pac SUPER SHOOTING STARS but only gets table!! Darby avoids disaster, and Pac is somehow still in this after his crash landing! Darby puts Pac in, trips him, and steps through!
The fans fire up as Darby steps over, SCORPION DEATHLOCK!! Pac endures, reaches out, but Darby sits deep! Pac fights, claws, reaches out, and powers his way forward! ROPEBREAK! Darby lets Pac go, and Pac waves to the back. Well, of course The Death Riders are here! Darby spots Wheeler Yuta, Daniel Garcia & Marina Shafir storming down the aisle, but then Pac CLOBBERS him! A distraction tactic is good enough as Pac now turns the proverbial tables. Then he signals for them to get something, and they bring out another table! The fans chant, “On The Green!” but Pac doesn’t care about that. He scoops Darby to go up the steel steps!
The fans boo as Pac tucks Darby in, TOMBSTONE on the steel steps! The fans go nuts as Darby flops to the floor! Wait, wait, wait, now The Death Riders have STACKED tables?! Pac smirks as he brings Darby back up, and he fireman’s carries Darby to bring him over. Darby goes to the backstage area while Collision goes picture in picture.
Pac carries Darby all the way around to the backstage area, because this is the only place to get upstairs! Pac SMACKS Darby off a wall on the way to the stairs, and the ref reprimands while Pac scares off curious fans. Pac drags Darby up the stairs with a headlock, and they go to the upper deck! Pac brings Darby past the nice bar and lounge area, the ref and Death Riders making sure fans don’t get too close. Pac SMACKS Darby off another wall, then drags Darby through this VIP seating area to go to the balcony. Pac stomps Darby to keep him down, then drags him to the balcony railing! And lo and behold, those stacked tables are right there!
The ref reprimands and the fans are freaking out already, but Pac is looking to toss Darby! Darby clings to the railing but Pac CLUBS him. Pac then drags Darby up, but Darby fires body shots! Fairway to Hell returns to single picture as Darby fights desperately! Darby CLAWS Pac’s back, but Marina shouts at Darby! The ref keeps her back, but that lets Pac LOW BLOW Darby! The Problem continues to be just that, but also the insurance policy for the Death Riders! Pac stands Darby up, and THROWS him off!! Darby crashes down through the tables!!! The fans lose their minds all over again while Pac hurries to go back downstairs!
AEW medical staff is already checking Darby as he’s down in the wreckage, but Pac says screw that! He fireman’s carries Darby and puts him back in the ring! Pac covers, TWO!!! Darby survives and the fans are thunderous! Pac and The Death Riders are in shock! Pac falls back to a corner as he shakes his head. Pac argues with the ref, but 2.99 still isn’t 3! The fans rally for Darby, but Pac storms over to him. Pac looms over Darby, Yuta slides a chair into the ring, but the ref snatches it away! Only for Marina to slide the title belt in! Pac takes aim while Darby rises, but then Darby springs to life! Pac has seen a ghost, or maybe a zombie!
Pac winds up, but Darby LOW BLOWS! And BELT SHOTS!! Darby gets Pac in place, goes up top, COFFIN DROP!! Cover, DARBY WINS!
Winner: Darby Allin, by pinfall (still AEW World Champion)
Pac said it himself, Darby is the indestructible boy! But can Darby keep this up? Or will The Alpha come through on his promise and bring this title back to the Don Callis Family this Wednesday?
My Thoughts:
A great hour of AEW here as this special edition of Collision, though “Fairway to Hell” is such a random thing to begin with. They must’ve made a business deal with SoFi and TGL, which to me might be more AEW helping TGL get noticed on a national scale. And changing the status quo with the National Championship was quite the surprise, but that’s still great for Davis. Ricochet being the reason why, and then that compelling The Elite jumping into Stadium Stampede is a bit convoluted. I get they’re using continuity of how Kenny hates Callis and vice-versa, but it undercuts what I was hoping for in Hurt Syndicate getting to introduce new members. But hey, 7v7 is pretty wild, too.
I appreciate Divine Dominion adding something to their squash matches with that five minute goal. Slay & Ley already set a good time with over two minutes, and I’m sure two minutes will be the average as they just dominate all summer. And it seems Alex Windsor is gonna be out a little longer than expected, given that adjustment for Double or Nothing. A Fatal 4 Way is still good for how Thekla can use her challengers against each other, or be protected in a loss if they choose. It also helps bring in the Shidalander story, but it also feels like we’re skipping chapters. That Fatal 4 Way can probably get us to the team breaking up and Shida turning on Statlander for their own feud.
Bailey VS Grey probably was a legit standby match, that went quick. And Knight had a decent promo saying he and Bailey are still gonna be JetSpeed going for all the gold. Not sure if that comes true or just sets things up for the team to fall apart. And then a really wild main event with the “No Count Out” match. They probably could’ve just called that No Holds Barred but they wanted to add heat on how The Death Riders were cheating the second half of that match. Both table spots were risky, but obviously Darby did the crazier one. AEW really needs to be careful not to push it much further than that, though.
Then the news of Okada being out for Dynamite, hopefully it’s nothing too tragic with his family. But Takeshita as the substitute is a good choice, this helps build the Okada VS Takeshita match at the same time as building Darby up. Pretty sure MJF accepts the terms of Title VS Hair, and it’d be very MJF if he were to announce that while attacking Darby to close the show on Wednesday.
My Score: 8.8/10

AEW mourns the loss of Ted Turner.
To remember the man who helped bring WCW to TNT, Tony Schiavone introduces the Icon of WCW, Sting! The fans cheer, and Sting hugs it out with Schiavone. Schiavone says here we are again. They both knew Ted Turner very, very well. He was a big part of their 40 year legacy, with a lot of memories of him, and surely Sting wants to share some. Sting takes the mic to say, “Can you imagine having an all-in billionaire who absolutely loved pro-wrestling? I’m talking about Ted. Big Ted. Big Ted, haha, yes. I can’t believe what he did for us. He was completely committed to us, devoted to us in every conceivable way.
“So much so, that when some of the top brass up there in CNN Towers would have their meetings with Ted, they’d say, ‘Ted, we don’t know about this pro-wrestling thing, it’s time to cut ’em off cuz we’re always in the red.'” The fans boo that notion, but Sting says Ted told the roster, “You wrestlers just keep on doing what you’re doing cuz I’ve got some deep pockets.” The fans cheer that! Sting says that’s shoot, that’s what Ted said. #ThankYouTed. And y’know, there wouldn’t be a TNT Championship, there wouldn’t be a Sting, a Darby Allin, a Tony Schiavone, or anyone else here tonight, so again, thank you, Big Ted.
The fans cheer, and Schiavone says speaking of Darby, he defends the AEW World Championship against the Turner Network Television Champion, Kevin Knight. What a match to have in memory of Ted tonight. Sting says that’s right. First of all, Sting & Darby took a blowtorch to AEW for three and a half years, and it felt great every single time! The fans cheer as Sting says it is great to be back in South Carolina! And it is great to know that Darby will wrestle for the world title tonight. The greatest tag partner Sting ever had! And Sting is also very thankful and grateful for a second all-in billionaire who wants to keep the ball rolling with AEW, and he’s talking about Tony Khan! Thank you, TK!
The fans cheer again, and Schiavone says that when you see the TNT Championship and TBS Championship belts, notice the side plates will have replicas of the studios from Techwood Drive, where it all started with the Turner Techwood Mansions. Tony Khan wanted those in honor of their past. Now, for his family, his friends, and all the lives he’s touched, tonight’s three hour block is now in memory of the maverick, Ted Turner. The crowd honors a moment of silence with ten rings of the bell, and then one more cheer of #ThankYouTed.
AEW Continental Championship Eliminator: Jon Moxley VS Juice Robinson!
The Death Riders have their hands in many pots, from trying to grab momentum in the tag and trios divisions to rebuilding Will Ospreay from the ground up. But with that, the Bang Bang Gang scored a win off Wheeler Yuta & Daniel Garcia last Saturday, and Rock Hard Robinson is calling out The Maniac! Will this Stray Bullet hit the bull’s eye? Or will Moxley keep his Continental Championship card clear?
The bell rings and the fans fire up as these two go forehead to forehead. They have twenty minutes to settle this, and North Charleston is fired up for Moxley as he fires a forearm. Juice fires back, they go back and forth, forearm for forearm! Moxley ROCKS Juice, Juice ROCKS Mox! Mox RAMS Juice, Juice RAMS back, and repeat! They go back and forth with shoulder block after shoulder block, then they get forehead to forehead again. Moxley KNEES low, then CHOPS! The fans “WOO~” as the Carolinas know all about chops. Moxley whips but Juice ducks ‘n’ dodges to LEAPING LARIAT! The fans fire up for Juice as he storms up on Moxley.

The fans rally and duel now as Moxley drags Juice up. Moxley bends Juice’s fingers, twists the wrist, then SNAPS fingers! Juice clutches his hand but Moxley KICKS him in the back. Moxley CHOPS Juice in the corner, then talks some trash before he swings. Juice dodges to CHOP! And JAB! JAB! JAB! “JUICE! JUICE! JUICE!” Juice pumps up, but Moxley bails out! Juice pursues to spin and THROW Moxley over barriers! Moxley tumbles around in the timekeeper’s area but Juice climbs up! The fans fire up as Juice leaps to DOUBLE AX HANDLE! The fans cheer as Juice pursues Moxley back to the ring.
Moxley goes to a corner and wants a moment to steady himself, but Juice climbs up to rain down fists! The fans count along, Juice goes to TEN, then BITES Moxley’s forehead! The fans cheer but the ref reprimands. Juice SPITS the taste out, then CROSSBODIES! Juice rains down fast hands, then fires up again. Moxley bails out while Juice huffs ‘n’ puffs, and Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Moxley hobbles around but Juice pursues. Moxley sits in a corner, but he kicks Juice low! Moxley then brings Juice around to whip, but Juice reverses, sending Moxley into the steel steps! Moxley writhes, the ref reprimands, but Juice asks the ref be patient. Juice puts Moxley in the ring, but Moxley runs to BOOT Juice down! Juice hits the steel steps on the way down! Moxley smirks while Juice is down, then Moxley flexes as he soaks up cheers and jeers. Moxley swaggers while he waits on Juice, but the ring count is climbing. Juice stirs at 5 of 10, sits up at 7, then rolls in! Juice flips Moxley off, but Moxley bends that finger!
Moxley makes Juice suffer as he twists the wrist, then BITES the fingers! The ref reprimands, Moxley “apologizes,” then he twists the wrist again. Moxley lets Juice go and Juice goes to a corner to check on his hand. Moxley runs up to LARIAT! Moxley brings Juice in for a snap suplex! Cover, TWO! Dynamite returns to single picture and Moxley stays on Juice with another wristlock. Juice endures again while the fans rally up. Moxley bends the fingers again, tortures Juice’s arm, but the fans rally up. Juice fights around but Moxley kicks him low. Moxley winds up to fire body shots from all sides, but stops as the ref counts.
Moxley grinds his forearm into Juice, then runs corner to corner, but into a LEG LARIAT! Juice falls but can’t make the cover! The fans rally again as Juice rises, and Juice manages to JAB! CHOP! JAB! CHOP! The fans chant “JUICE! WOO~!” again and again as Juice JABS and CHOPS in the corner! Juice whips corner to corner, then runs up to LARIAT! Moxley slumps down but Juice keeps moving, CANNON- NO, Moxley is up! Juice ducks the lariat, but Moxley blocks Juice’s, for a CUTTER! Moxley waits on Juice, daring him to get up.

Then the BULLY CHOKE!! Juice reaches out, fights around, and he powers up to his feet!
Moxley keeps Juice from ropes, and hits a takeover! “This is Awesome!” but Juice is fading! He’s red, he’s OUT! Moxley wins!
Winner: Jon Moxley, by submission (denies Juice Robinson a title opportunity)
Juice pushed the time limit, but Moxley found a way to squeeze every bit out of Juice first. Will anyone take this title from Moxley at the rate he’s going?
The Death Riders continue their training.
As Wheeler Yuta uses Will Ospreay as a board for his deep ab crunches, which also tests Ospreay’s neck, Daniel Garcia says, “You just got off a 15 hour flight, you won titles with your petty little dramatic friends in Japan, we do not care. It’s us against the world. And if you wanna be the best version of yourself, you’re gonna have to work for it. C’mon, let’s get it! C’mon, c’mon, c’mon!” Ospreay keeps his head up, even as Yuta leans all the way back. Also, we see Marina training her kicks against Moxley’s abs. Ospreay powers through and Claudio calls time. Yuta steps off and Moxley kneels beside Ospreay. Both men laugh off the burning in their bodies.
Moxley says good, cool. Has Ospreay ever heard of the concept, “Death Ground?” Ospreay has not. Moxley says it is ground you cannot leave, from which there is no escape. There are no other options but to do or die. That is where Ospreay is right now. If we don’t get that neck right, if we don’t get that mind right, it’s over, Ospreay is done. Sure, Ospreay would still have his career in AEW, get paid to hang out like the rest of these posers. But that’s not what Ospreay wants. H e’s not like the rest of them. He is different. It is a privilege to be where you are, this far all the way up the mountain, where all he has left is that 1%.
This is the hardest 1% to climb. You’re on death ground now. It’ll be hard. But it’s the only good option. Nothing else exists but what is right in front of him. Every minute, every second. Now, on your back. Ospreay nods, and Marina is there with the towel. Pac says enough of you, cameraman. The camera shuts off as Marina works on Ospreay’s neck. Will the Death Riders truly rebuild Ospreay as a tougher, stronger, meaner Aerial Assassin?
Double Jeopardy: Orange Cassidy VS Dax Harwood!
While Adam Copeland & Christian Cage are putting their tag team career on the line at Double or Nothing, the Conglomeration and FTR are willing to gamble with each other. Freshly Squeezed is fighting for his own shot at the AEW World Tag Team Championships, will he be leaving North Charleston with those golden tickets? Or will Dax the Ax earn himself, Cash Wheeler & Tommaso Ciampa a shot at the AEW World Trios Championships?
Well as if they aren’t obnoxious enough, FTR is mocking the Conglomeration by having #BigStoke dress up as Orange Cassidy, and then they’re being accompanied by Roppongi Vice, aka former friends of Orange Cassidy’s, and… The Dogs? Why’re Finlay & Connors hanging around these guys when they’re also supposed to team with The Death Riders later tonight? Finally, Cassidy makes his entrance, with Roddy & Kyle accompanying him. But wait, they have reinforcements, too, in the form of the Young Bucks AND Cope & Cage! The fans cheer as we might get a Rated R Superkick Party! Might as well call this a Lumberjack match for the heck of it!
The bell rings and the fans fire up as Cassidy puts his sunglasses away and circles with Dax. They feel things out, tie up, and Dax headlocks. Cassidy powers up and out, but Dax RUNS him over!

Dax drags Cassidy up, puts him in, and he SLAMS Cassidy’s bad arm against the post! Dax slides, argues with the ref, and Stokely SLAMS Cassidy’s arm into post! The fans boo but even Ciampa gets a turn as Dynamite goes picture in picture!
Cassidy writhes but Stoke soaks up the heat. Cope & Cage storm over, Stoke hides behind literally everyone else, and they coach Cassidy on. Cassidy clutches his arm but Dax drags him up. Dax CHOPS Cassidy in the corner, then watches him flop down. Dax stomps the bad hand and Cassidy scrambles around. Cassidy bails out, Dax pursues, and Dax sends Cassidy back into the ring. Dax whips Cassidy to the corner, wraps the bad arm around ropes and pulls! The ref counts, Dax CHOPS, and Cassidy flops down. Dax drags Cassidy up to TOSS him out, but the ref makes sure everyone stays back. Dax distracts the ref, that lets Ciampa get a shot in!
Cassidy’s crew protests, but Stoke still gets a shot in, too. The ref tells everybody to back off, this isn’t a real lumberjack match! Cassidy rolls into the ring, Dax brings him up, and Dax shoves, only for Cassidy to KICK! Cash gets on the apron, that makes the ref miss Cassidy’s cradle! The ref is late to the count, TWO! Dax LARIATS Cassidy down! Dax stalks Cassidy to ropes while Rocky soaks up heat for the team. Dax CHOKES Cassidy, but stops as the ref counts. Dax drags Cassidy up, brings him around, and CHOPS! Dax reels Cassidy in, puts him up top, then CHOPS again! Dax climbs up now, talks trash on the fans, then blows a kiss.
Dynamite returns to single picture as Dax CLAWS Cassidy’s face! The ref reprimands, but Cassidy fights the superplex with body shots! Cassidy fires forearms, Dax falls back, and Cassidy leaps! But into a BODY BLOW! Dax reels Cassidy in, but Cassidy fights the lift again. Cassidy wrenches but Dax CLUBS him! Dax whips, Cassidy goes up and out, then Cassidy SMACKS Dax off buckles!

The fans cheer as Cassidy then DECKS Dax! Dax staggers to his feet, into the DEEP IMPACT! Cover, TWO!
Dax survives but the fans rally up for Cassidy. Cassidy rises while Dax bails out. Dax’s crew checks on him, but Cassidy builds speed! Cassidy DIVES, but Dax denies the impact! Dax SMACKS Cassidy’s bad hand off the desk, then he ATOMIC SLAMS Cassidy on the desk! Cassidy writhes but Dax drags him up. Dax puts Cassidy in the ring, then mocks the hands up and hands in pockets. Dax “unleashes” kicks of his own, mocking Cassidy more and more. Cassidy puts his hands up, and then in his pockets! The fans cheer as now Cassidy ducks ‘n’ dodges to SHOTGUN! Cassidy kips up, tilt-o-whirls, and DDTS! The fans cheer as Cassidy rises again!

Cassidy is a ragdoll so Dax lets him go. The ref checks Cassidy but Cassidy is still conscious. Dax suplexes, but into a STUN-DOG MILLIONAIRE! And then Cassidy loads up in the corner! ORANGE PUNCH!! Cover, TWO!!
Cassidy is stunned, but his bad hand held him back on that cover. Cassidy grits his teeth and clutches the hand, but Dax gets the ARMBAR! Cassidy scrambles around, even as Dax stomps his face! Cassidy fights around, rolls, and he stacks Dax! Dax kicks at Cassidy but Cassidy has the legs! CROSS LEG CRADLE! CASSIDY WINS!!
Winner: Orange Cassidy, by pinfall (The Conglomeration are NEW #1 Contenders to the AEW World Tag Team Championships)
But then all hell breaks loose as RPG Vice & Dogs storm the ring! Cope, Cage and The Bucks rush in there, too! The fans fire up as the brawl spills out of the ring! The Bucks, Conglomeration, and the team that reeks of awesomeness all control the ring, and they wait on RPG Vice! The fans cheer as Azucar & Trent realize the trouble they’re in. Rocky says they’re cool, right? That was all just business before! Cope says nope, and he pokes Rocky in the eyes! Feed to Kyle for a KNEE, then he and Roddy Ax ‘n’ SMASH! DOUBLE SUPERKICKS for #JustTrent! Then a SPEAR from Cope! The fans fire up as Cage wants one, too! LOW BLOW for Rocky!
The fans cheer as Cope helps Cassidy stand up, and they all celebrate! The Bucks & Bang Bang Gang will settle things with The Dogs later, which side wins that wild 10 Man Tag? As for Cassidy, what combination of The Conglomeration will look to take the #TopGuysOut?
Backstage interview with Chris Jericho.
Renee Paquette is with Y2J and thanks him for speaking with her given things didn’t go well the last time. How is he doing? Jericho says she is right, last time he said he was pretty pissed off. But after last week, he’s effin’ furious! But the time for talking is done! The time for words is over. Time to fight! Jericho says unlike The Demand, he doesn’t wanna fight backstage, so if he could, he’ll take this out to the people! Jericho borrows the mic and storms his way through the back of the crowd! “Alright, South Carolina! Hey! C’mon!” Jericho goes to ringside and fires the fans up more. They cheer “Y 2 J!” as he steps into the ring.
Jericho says he’ll keep this very simple, because this is North Charleston, this is AEW Dynamite, and he IS Jericho! And Jericho is done with beatdowns and blindsides and BS! So Ricochet, Jericho will ask- No, he’ll demand that Ricochet comes out here to talk to Jericho face to face, one on one, man to man, right here, right now! The fans cheer that! Jericho doesn’t have to wait long as Ricochet indeed makes his entrance. The One & Only is walking down the ramp alone at first, but then the Gates of Agony follow after him after all. The Demand goes to the ring, and Liona pushes past Jericho to fetch a mic for Ricochet.
Ricochet tells Jericho that he’s tried to do Jericho a favor by telling him to leave, and Jericho didn’t listen. The fans boo as Ricochet says all these simpletons must think it’s funny Jericho trademarked, “The Guy Who Gets His Ass Kicked By The Demand Every Week That He Shows Up.” Jericho says sorry, can’t hear a damn word you said! The fans cheer and boo even louder, and Ricochet says yeah, okay, maybe Jericho has a shame kink, but they can make that a reality here tonight, “in front of these overweight, mouth-breathing hillbillies right here in Charleston, North Carolina!” Now the fans boo cuz Ricochet can’t even remember north and south.
Ricochet says if he’s being honest, he’s kinda tired of this, kinda bored of this. So if they do this 1v1 again, what does The Demand get out of it? Kaun whispers an idea to Ricochet, and he says that’s actually not bad! Here’s one for you, Jericho. Six years ago, you created your own match, a match that happened at Double or Nothing. So this year, in a stadium that is proudly named after an American icon in Louie Armstrong, and Ricochet being an American icon himself, he will deal Jericho a losing record in his very own match. The fans tell Ricochet to shut up but he dares them to make him! Exactly! Sit down!
Ricochet goes back to Jericho to say this time, Ricochet won’t just beat Jericho with his own move, the Lionsault, now known as the Ricosault, but Ricochet will beat Jericho in a STADIUM STAMPEDE! The only problem is, Jericho had to pay people to watch his back! How’d that work out? Still couldn’t get the job done, huh? So Ricochet isn’t even sure Jericho can find partners for this match. Because here in AEW, Ricochet’s company, no one likes Jericho! The fans boo, but Jericho says first of all, you stupid SOB, this is SOUTH Carolina! The fans cheer that! Ricochet rolls his eyes, but Jericho says let’s get this right: Ricochet wants Stadium Stampede?!
The fans cheer for Stadium Stampede, and Jericho says Ricochet is on! He WILL find four partners, because surely someone here likes Jericho. And if he can’t, he’ll just take on all of them by himself! Bald! BONK!! Jericho knocks Ricochet down with the mic, then dodges Liona to SMACK Kaun! But Liona then grabs Jericho, whips him, but Jericho stops himself! Jericho DUMPS Liona out, then TOSSES Kaun! Ricochet is back, but gets a JUDAS EFFECT! The fans cheer as Jericho then lines it up, but Liona DECKS Jericho before he can Lionsasult! The Gates mug Jericho, but wait! The Hurt Syndicate rushes out here!
The fans cheer as Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin run The Demand off! Liona has to carry Ricochet away, but has Jericho found two of the four he needs? Who else will join the chaos that is Stadium Stampede?
Backstage interview with Harley Cameron & Mina Shirakawa.
Renee is with the Wild Aussie and Fighting Gravure Idol and says there are surely conflicting emotions going into their tag match with Hikaru Shida & Kris Statlander. But how are they feeling? Harley doesn’t know how to feel, but Mina says wake up! What Shida has done to Stat and them is not good! Can Harley trust Stat? Mina hopes so. But tonight, beyond friendship, beyond how they feel, they have a match to win! Harley, you are one of AEW’s first-ever Women’s Tag Team Champions! So, stop looking out there, and look in here! Mina RIPS Harley’s shirt open!? Mina apologizes for getting fired up, but Harley says she doesn’t care!
Harley tells Shida & Stat that the wrath is back! Harley finishes ripping her shirt away, and says tonight, you’re gonna feel it! Renee says this is gonna be one hell of a match! Now to get dressed… Harley & Mina hurry off, but will they hit #Shidalander with both barrels? Or will the Shining Samurai & Cosmic Killer continue to grow stronger as a duo?
AEW International Championship: Kazuchika Okada VS Bryan Keith!
With The Alpha defending his NJPW World Television Championship in Japan this past weekend, The Rainmaker will not be outdone by his “brother” in the Don Callis Family! But will Okada deny The Bounty Hunter is prize? Or is he about to get caught off guard in this trap game?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see if Okada is still going to Double or Nothing!
Callis of course joins commentary, and he says Okada is perhaps THE greatest wrestler of all time, so why wouldn’t he wanna be ringside for it? The bell rings and the two circle. Keith and Okada feel things out, tie up, and Okada slips around to waistlock. Keith headlocks, Okada pries the hold open, but Keith powers it on tighter. The fans rally as Okada powers up again, only for Keith to tighten the hold again. Okada powers Keith to ropes, the ref counts, and Keith lets Okada go.

Keith tumbles to apron then the floor!
The fans cheer while Okada goes out to fetch Keith. Okada stands Keith up, just to DDT him on the floor! Okada grins and the fans cheer again while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
The ref checks Keith but he is still in the match. Okada takes his time bringing Keith back up, but Keith COHPS! And CHOPS! Okada RAMS Keith into the corner! Okada refreshes the count, then brings Keith around to UPPERCUT him down! Keith falls at Callis’ feet while Okada rolls into the ring, and Callis stomps Keith while Okada distracts the ref! Callis gets away with his underhanded tactics, and Keith crawls to the ring. Lance Archer taunts Keith, but Okada puts Keith in the ring. Okada takes his time walking up to Keith, and Keith CHOPS again! Okada brushes that off, so Keith CHOSP again! Okada shakes his head, so Keith CHOPS again! Okada kicks low to DDT!
Keith sputters while Okada pushes him to a cover, TWO! Keith toughs it out, but Okada stalks him to the corner. Okada drags Keith up to ELBOW him in the corner! And ELBOW him again! And ELBOW him again! Okada backs off as the ref counts, but Keith ROCKS Okada! Okada KNEES low, whips Keith corner to corner, then runs up for another ELBOW! Okada snapmares Keith, then looms over him. Keith snarls as he sits up, but Okada brings him around as Dynamite returns to single picture. Okada scoops and SLAMS Keith, then goes to the corner. Standard formula says Okada goes up, and Keith knows it!
Keith gets under the leap, then comes back to clinch! Okada fights but Keith shifts to go for a takedown! Okada rolls through, but turns around into a KNEE! Both men are down but the fans fire up!

Okada switches, Keith spins around, DDT on the floor! Keith returns the favor on Okada and Okada is in a daze! Keith snarls, he drags Okada up, and he puts Okada in the ring. Keith vows to end this, and he clinches, only for Okada to fight the lift! Keith CLUBS Okada, then runs the ropes, but Okada blocks the boot to BOOT back! Alabama Lift, the tuck, REVERSE NECKBREAKER! The fans cheer as Okada drags Keith up. Okada scoops, SLAMS, and tries the standard formula again. Okada is up top, for the MACHO ELBOW! The fans cheer as Okada winds it up, Rainmaker MIDDLE FINGER!

Winner: Kazuchika Okada, by pinfall (still AEW International Champion)
Just as Bryan Keith was about to strike with Diamond Dust, Okada snatches away his victory to keep the gold! Callis then grabs the mic so he can say, “Okada has something important to say!” Okada is handed the mic, and he says, “I already have the International title. Unlike Takeshita! But I want more!” The fans like the sound of that! Okada says he is coming for THE A E W World Championship!! B*tch! The Rainmaker has staked his claim at the top prize, but is he overlooking what stands in his way? Or will the NJPW World Television Champion prove he can beat Okada and truly be THE Alpha of the Don Callis Family?
JetSpeed speaks.
Mike Bailey says, “Tonight, the TNT Champion becomes #Jet2Belts! Kevin, it’s time for you to prove that you’re no longer a rising star, but you’re way up there, shining bright, and you are the one we look up to.” Knight says he likes the way that sounds! Ever since he stepped into the building this morning, the air switched up a bit. And he appreciates Darby Allin for being the fighting champion he says he is, but what was it he was saying? Darby’s gonna fight until his body gives out? Well, Knight has news for you: that’s exactly what happens tonight when Darby steps into the ring with The Jet, and he becomes the NEW AEW World Champion!
The Jet is ready to fly, and Speedball also has his own match with AR Fox. Will tonight be the best night JetSpeed’s ever had?
The Opps speak.
Katsuyori Shibata wants to confiscate a camera like always, but Samoa Joe says nah, let the man do his job. Shibata stands with Joe and Anthony Bowens, and Joe says, “Well, ladies and gentlemen, I am Samoa Joe, and I am joined by The Opps. And I’m worried. See, last week, I put out an offer, and I am deathly afraid it is not being heard. Will Ospreay, please, hear these words and allow me to explain myself in a very non-intimidating manner. Y’see, men like Jon Moxley, they’re telling you how to think, Will. I don’t wanna do that, Will. I want you to think whatever you wanna think.
“Will, you gotta realize that I see the momentum. I see the tide rising, Will. I know that you are destined for greatness. And some say that you will be the next world champion. But now the question is, Will, how much of you will there be left to remain champion? Will, with a man like me at your side, with men like us at your side, William… That can be a very long time. Now you may say to yourself, ‘What are the advantages to this?’ Well, I’ll tell you what. In this organization, men like Hook, though he was unsuccessful last week, I won’t punish that man, no. This week, he’s off filming a movie, I made a few connections, I made a few calls, I put him in a better position to succeed.
“That’s what I wanna do for you. Anthony Bowens, long overlooked and underestimated, I will now provide an opportunity for him to succeed. This man here, Katsuyori Shibata, nowhere else in the world will he get to be him, The Wrestler, than with The Opps, and right here and right now. So William, just know this: The choice is yours, the choice is clear, and the intentions of the man that is staring you in the face right now are as clear as day. I’m gonna put out my hand to you one last time, and just know, William, if it is not accepted… Then I’ll put out my fist.” The Opps have given their ultimatum, but will Ospreay acknowledge it?
Hikaru Shida & Kris Statlander VS Mina Shirakawa & Harley Cameron!
While the Shining Samurai wants to make herself and the Cosmic Killer into the Galaxy’s Greatest Duo, they did suffer a setback against The Divine Dominion. On top of that, the Fighting Gravure Idol is playing detective as she tries to figure out whodunnit to Toni Storm. But will #Shidalander rebound and head back for the gold? Or will they #FeelTheWrath of these buxom battle babes?
The teams sort out and Kris starts against Mina. The two tie up, Kris headlocks, but Mina powers up and out. Kris RUNS Mina over, flexes, and the fans cheer.

Kris hauls Mina up, bumps her off buckles, then UPPERCUTS! Kris runs side to side to KNEE WASH! Tag to Shida and Shida brings Mina around the way. The fans cheer as Shida puts Mina on the apron. Shida CLUBS away on Mina, then lines up a shot. The fans are torn as Shida runs in, KNEE LIFT! Mina sputters but Shida taunts Harley. Shida says there are levels to this, but Harley says she’ll see Shida soon. Shida goes back to Mina and stomps her down while Dynamite goes picture in picture.
Shida drags Mina up, bumps her off buckles, then climbs up to rain down fists1 Shida goes to TEN, then hops down. Shida wrenches and whips Mina corner to corner, then gets her on the rebound with a waistlock. Shida spins Mina around and around before the SLAM! Cover, TWO! Mina is tougher than that, but Shida drags her over to bump off buckles. Tag to Kris, they mug Mina, then Kris suplexes Mina, to hold her up! Shida and the fans applaud the stalling suplex, and Kris SLAMS Mina at TWENTY! Kris flexes then covers, TWO! Mina survives the head rush but Kris brings her over to tag Shida. Shida mugs Mina, then brings her around.
Shida suplexes, but just a standard one. Then Shida rear mounts Mina so she can clamp on a CAMEL CLUTCH! Mina endures being bent back, and she frees her arms to reach out. Mina kicks and crawls her way over to the ROPEBREAK! Shida lets go, then drags Mina up to scoop. Shida puts Mina in the ropes, tags Kris, then Shida coordinates with her. Dynamite returns to single picture as Shida lets herself be the weapon in the snap suplex into the corner! Shida’s feet get Mina in the face! Shida tags back in, she drags Mina up, but Mina fires forearms! Shida fires back and the fans rally up!
The shots go back and forth, harder and harder, then Mina fires a flurry! Mina ROCKS Shida, runs the ropes, but Shida clinches to ROCK Mina! Shida then suplexes, but Mina slips free! ROLLING ELBOW!

The fans fire up as Harley RAMS Kris, ROUNDHOUSES, then goes up, up, and CROSSBODIES! Harley rolls through to run the ropes, ducks ‘n’ dodges, to then tilt-o-whirl DDT!

Winners: Hikaru Shida & Kris Statlander, by pinfall
Shida is much more excited about this than Kris, but maybe that’s because Kris had to beat up a former friend to win. Will this duo continue to climb the ranks until they’re the champions?
Prince Nana is backstage.
Cameras follow him as he finds Swerve Strickland. Swerve says, “Two months ago, I told everybody that I was after power. Power. But it seems a few understand what it truly means. See, real power is being the one to decide who eats and who starves. Real power is being the man that nobody will stop, and making sure the whole world sees it. I’m the Most Dangerous to the most violent, all the way to the Most Wanted. More power means more fear. And more control. And there is nothing more dangerous than a man that desires power. And I want it all.” The Realest has put Bandido on notice, but will he take The Outlaw down? Or will he be just another name that has tried and failed?
Backstage interview with #Brodido.
Renee is with The Most Wanted and the King of Death as she brings up Swerve calling Bandido out. What is his reaction to Swerve? Bandido says Swerve is right, Bandido IS the Most Wanted! And if Swerve wants him, he’s easy to find. Brody says Bandido’s got this. But Swerve, it is one thing to mess with Brody. But if you mess with his friends, there will be Hell to pay. Brodido is locked ‘n’ loaded, but will Swerve’s House have just the arsenal for this shootout?
AEW World Championship: Darby Allin VS Kevin Knight!
The Relentless One is indeed being a fighting champion, having brutal battles with Tommaso Ciampa and Brody King. But now he’ll have to see if he can keep up with The Jet, who himself overcome the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil just last Saturday. Will Knight add more gold to his luggage? Or will Darby’s human demolition derby keep on going?
The introductions are made, the world title is raised, and we see who is truly the top champion in AEW!
The bell rings and the fans rally up. The two circle, tie up, and are in a deadlock. Knight powers Darby to the corner, Darby powers his way around, and they’re still in a deadlock.

Cover, Darby wins!
Winner: Darby Allin, by pinfall (still AEW World Champion)
It was certainly fast ‘n’ furious, and Sting is here to celebrate with his former protege! The show is switching from Dynamite to Collision, but will nothing stop Darby from being THE AEW World Champion?
Collision begins as…
Sting helps Darby to his feet, but also helps Knight to his feet. Sting raises Darby’s hand in victory, but also raises Knight’s hand to show further respect. The two champs shake hands for that same reason, and both men move on. At least, Knight odes, as MJF makes his way out here! The fans are torn as The Scumbag steps on Darby’s moment, mic in hand. MJF has them cut his music, and he says, “I don’t know what’s worse: The fact that I have to be in the Carolinas, or the fact that this reign of terror of yours is still continuing. Listen to me, Darby, nobody wants to see you with that world title anymore, okay, bud?”
The fans boo but MJF says no one asked them, shut up! Enough is enough, this has been cute, it’s been fun, but it’s time to give MJF the rematch he’s owed, okay? Rematch time! The fans chant at MJF that he messed up, and Darby tells MJF that he’s already said no. If MJF wants the rematch, MJF has to put something on the line. MJF says alright, if Darby wants to barter with him, tell you what? MJF will put his scarf on the line, it’s a beautiful scarf. Darby says no, so MJF says he can’t even believe he’s saying this. How about the Dynamite Diamond Ring? Say yes! Darby says no. MJF is starting to get pissed off, okay?
MJF says everybody loves money, so if Darby gives him the rematch, MJF will give him ONE MILLION DOLLARS! Darby says you’re talking to a guy who used to be homeless living under a bridge, MJF’s money is no good here. MJF says okay, you troll, then what do you want?! Everyone’s got a price so what does Darby want!? Darby says he wants something MJF holds most dear in this life. Something MJF is so desperate to keep that he’s willing to fly 15 hours to Turkey to get it sewed onto his skull! Darby is talking about MJF’s hair! “Listen, you most vain POS I’ve ever met, I’m talking about your damn hair!!”
MJF says be reasonable, but the fans already chant, “BALD! BALD! BALD!” MJF says be reasonable, but Darby says next week, they’ll do a contract signing: Title VS Hair! And if MJF doesn’t show up, he is never, and Darby means never, getting a championship match! What does MJF say? MJF is flustered, and he drops the mic to run away! The tables have finally been turned on MJF, but how badly does The Devil of AEW want to make a deal with Darby? But then hold on, Okada walks back out here! The International Champion did say he wants more than one belt, and he’s going right up to the ring.
Okada grabs his own mic to tell Darby, “Next Wednesday, ME VS YOU! For your WORLD TITLE!” The fans cheer as Darby tells Okada, “It’s on, b*tch!” The Relentless One VS The Rainmaker, in Asheville, North Carolina, but who will reign supreme?
Backstage interview with Will Ospreay.
Renee is with both the Aerial Assassin and Doc Sampson to get a medical update. What is the verdict? Doc says Ospreay, against medical advice, went to Japan for a match. Luckily, he didn’t make anything worse. Upon his return, Doc checked Ospreay out, and he is actually improving. Whatever training he’s doing, he’ll keep doing it, and to that point, we’ll MRI this week. If that MRI is clear, then Ospreay will be medically cleared for AEW. Renee says that brings us to the obvious: Ospreay training with The Death Riders. What is their relationship? Ospreay says he appreciates The Death Riders letting him in on the training, but he’s not a Death Rider, never will be.
Ospreay just knows there are things he doesn’t wanna do that he knows he has to do to get to where he wants to be. Okay, Renee says they’ll keep everyone updated as news comes in. Will Ospreay be back to 100% soon enough?
“Speedball” Mike Bailey VS AR Fox!
We saw one half of JetSpeed fall short of the top prize in AEW, but now the other half is looking to build their own momentum towards gold. Will Speedball bounce back on behalf of The Jet? Or will Collision soon be The Whole Fox’n Show?
The bell rings and Bailey offers a handshake. Fox accepts it and the fans applaud. They circle as the fans rally up, and they tie up. Fox arm-drags, then blocks Bailey trying to do the same. Bailey slips around, headlocks, but Fox back suplexes. Bailey lands out, but Fox counters to headlock takeover. Bailey headscissors, Fox kips free, but Bailey kicks him away. Their arm-drags cancel out, then their dropkicks do the same! Bailey dodges to LIGHTNING KICK and ENZIGIRI! Fox tumbles out while the fans cheer. Bailey runs side to side to TRIANGLE- NO, Fox slides in! Bailey lands on the apron but Fox sweeps the legs!
Fox runs up but Bailey avoids the flip-stomp! Bailey avoids it again, then jumps the slide to ARIHARA SKY TWISTER! Direct hit and down goes Fox! Fox writhes, clutches a shoulder, but the fans fire up for Bailey. Bailey puts Fox in the ring, goes up a corner, and leaps in for the MISSILE DROPKICK! Fox tumbles, the fans fire up again, and Collision goes picture in picture.

Fox tried to fly like #JetSpeed, but he couldn’t keep up! Will Bailey find his own path to a title back around his waist?
Willow Nightingale speaks.
“It is an honor, on today of all days, to be called the Face of TBS. Turner Broadcasting System. And it’s privilege to wear its championship. And in that way, represent a man who changed the landscape of television, and gave professional wrestling a home. After nine title defenses, I’ve knocked down every challenger, I’ve smashed every comeback, because that is what the legacy of this network, the legacy of Turner, deserves: A fighting champion. So whoever wants next, step up. Because I plan on defending that legacy every single week.” The Babe with the Power has issued the challenge once more, but who will answer the call?
The Death Riders speak, again.
The Bastard mockingly applauds and congratulates Darby Allin, “The indestructible boy who never quits, and still champion. Haha. Very impressive. Now listen up. Don’t you dare forget about me, alright? Your old friend, the perpetual thorn in your side, The Bastard, and right now, I’m gonna be very direct with ya. You and I, Darby, here in AEW, we are 2-1 in singles competition, in my favor! Now by my reckoning, that earns me a shot. So hey, give me a shot. Fight me for your World Heavyweight Championship, Mr. Fighting Champion, because I promise ya, I am one mountain you will never truly conquer. I know that, and you definitely know that.
“Hell, if you can do it, I certainly can! So let’s see how big ya balls are, huh? Why don’t you prove me wrong? Hmm? An invitation, if ya like. Do let me know, won’t ya?” Pac has called Darby out, when and where will these two revisit their feud?
BREAKING NEWS for Fairway to Hell!
The other hour of Collision is happening this Saturday, live from West Palm Beach, Florida, and it just got a whole lot bigger! Jack Perry VS Mark Davis for the National Championship in a rematch from Dynasty, Divine Dominion in non-title tag action, and now THE AEW World Championship, Darby Allin VS PAC! Will Pac make it 3-1 with a golden victory? Or will Darby tie up the career series while staying on top?
Jamie Hayter VS Skye Blue!
Speaking of revisiting some things, The Brawling Birds have been chasing the Triangle of Madness, but only suffering loss for it. Persephone got misted, Alex Windsor is sidelined for the night, but can the Southampton Slugger still hit hard? Or will the Chicago Skye darken the shadows here in North Charleston?
The bell rings, Skye runs up but Jamie sidesteps, then clinches, but Skye elbows free! Jamie blocks a kick, ROCKS Skye, then ELBOWS her at the ropes. Jamie whips, Skye reverses, but Jamie blocks the hip toss! Skye ducks the lariat to roll Jamie up, TWO! Jamie sidesteps again to BOOT Skye down!

But Skye THROWS Jamie by her hair! Skye stomps away in the corner, but she stops as the ref reprimands.
Jamie sputters again but Skye kicks her to the floor. Skye goes out to talk some trash, and she SMACKS Jamie off the desk! Skye then brings Jamie around to whip, but Jamie reverses! Skye hits barriers, then takes a seat, only for Jamie to stomp her! Jamie climbs up against the railing to rain down fists! The fans count along, and Jamie goes all the way to TEN! The fans applaud, Jamie rolls into the ring, then goes back out. But Skye drop toeholds her into steel steps! The ref reprimands but Skye puts Jamie back in. Cover, TWO! Jamie is tougher than that but Skye is just annoyed. Skye bumps Jamie off buckles, then digs her boots in.

Collision returns to single picture as Jamie then BOOTS Skye away, hops up the corner, and leaps! MISSILE DROPKICK! The fans fire up as Jamie drags Skye up, and GERMAN SUPLEXES! The fans cheer Jamie as she runs corner to corner, LARIAT in the corner! Then an EXPLODER! Cover, TWO! Skye survives but Jamie hauls her up to whip. Jamie SPINEBUSTERS Skye back down, then HAMMERS away! The fans cheer while Jamie powers up the arm.

Jamie ELBOWS Skye, fires ridge hands, then blocks as hot, SUPER HAYTERADE!! Cover, Jamie wins!
Winner: Jamie Hayter, by pinfall
Skye fell and Jamie kisses the powerful biceps! Thekla & Julia Hart are in the crowd, and they mockingly applaud this one win. Jamie says watch this! HAYTERADE again!! Now Thekla & Julia are mad! But will Jamie make sure the rest of the Triangle gets bent soon enough?
The Don Callis Family speaks.
Don Callis stands with Mark Davis, Kazuchika Okada, Konosuke Takeshita and the NEW IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion, Andrade El Idolo. Callis says he is so happy, because everything is coming up DCF! This Saturday, Fairway to Hell, Davis is gonna win gold for the family in the National Championship when he crushes Jack Perry! Okada has just had another successful title defense! And yes, breaking news that should keep everyone up at night, Okada has staked his claim to the AEW World Championship! Be very afraid! But Konosuke says no, Okada shouldn’t be worried about Darby and the world title.
Okada should be worried about defending his International Championship against Takeshita at Double or Nothing! Okada and Konosuke argue in Japanese, Callis shouts them down, saying on one hand, yes, they’re the best wrestlers in the world, so he agrees. But on the other, this is sounding a little Kenny Omega, where they want this but they also want that. What he’s saying is, Okada is Callis’ handpicked choice for THE world title! But then Andrade asks, “How you know?” El Idolo storms off, Callis says how does he know? Because he’s Don Callis, and he knows everything! And what he knows is that there’s gonna be more gold in the Don Callis Family!
The Real Latino Man and The Alpha are champions themselves, but are they really going to take a backseat to Okada grabbing up more gold for himself? Or can they all put Don Callis’ desires ahead of their own?
Rush VS Manny Lo!
Speaking of someone who wants gold, El Toro Blanco continues to stampede all over AEW, but the titles are still just out of reach. Will he finally prove himself worthy with another violent Collision?
The bell rings and Manny offers a handshake. Rush just THROWS Manny to the corner, CHOPS, CHOPS, and CHOPS! Rush sits Manny down, fires off forearms and stomps, but the ref counts. Rush stops at 4, then runs corner to corner, BULL’S HORNS!! Cover, Rush wins!
Winner: Rush, by pinfall
He wasted no time, because he is running out of patience! Rush gets the mic to say, “JUST REMEMBERRR~! When you mess with the bull, YOU GET THE HORNS!” Will every champion in AEW have to watch out before they get run over by El Toro Blanco?
Jack Perry speaks.
The Jurassic Express keeps on cruising, and Jack says when he was a boy, someone told him it’s not about the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog. And Mark Davis, you’re just a big, stupid dog. But it was grit, determination, and a willingness to win no matter the cost that made Jack into the National Champion. It doesn’t matter how big, bad, or dangerous you think you are, because Jack already beat Davis once, and he’ll do it again. There is only room for one, and Jack is on top of the mountain. If Davis doesn’t like that, F U! Jack Perry indeed climbed a mountain, but can he stay at the peak?
10 Man Tag: The Young Bucks & The Bang Bang Gang VS The Death Riders & Dogs!
While we got a teaser of this earlier tonight, Matt & Nick Jackson now team with Ace Austin & The Gunns to face off against Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, Daniel Garcia, David Finlay & Clark Connors. Will this the Collision Cowboys help throw quite the Superkick Party? Or will the Swiss Cyborg, Decoder, Dragon Slayer, Savage King & 100 Proof simply stack bodies on their way to the top?
Forget sorting out in the ring, The Death Riders lead the charge as soon as #BangBangBucks are ringside! The bell rings to get this on record as Matt brawls with Yuta, Garcia is after Austin, Finlay CLUBS Nick, Claudio ROCKS Colten, and Connors has Ace. Moxley is on commentary to say high octane start as Yuta & Garcia mug Nick in the corner. They double suplex but Matt makes the save! The Bucks then have Garcia, but Yuta CLUBS Nick! It is 2v2 but Ace joins in! But then Connors joins in! Moxley wonders what we’re getting as Austin and Finlay add on. Moxley says it’s a human centipede suplex situation and he’s uncomfortable.
Claudio UPPERCUTS Colten down on the outside, and The Bang Bang Bucks QUADRUPLE SUPLEX! The fans fire up, and now everyone has someone in a corner! Colten even turns things around on Claudio at the desk! We quite a quintuple rain of fists, all the way to TEN! That’s fifty punches in all, and then the Bang Bang Bucks send the Death Dogs at each other! Yuta, Garcia, Finlay & Connors all stop short, but turn around into QUADRUPLE ATOMIC DROPS! The Death Dogs all stumble around then fall out of the ring, but Claudio is in the ring! But Ace & Austin double kick to double whip! Claudio sends them into each other, but Matt gives Nick the boost for a RANA!
Claudio tumbles out, The Bucks rally the fans, and Matt WRECKS Claudio with a dropkick! Matt holds the ropes down for Nick to FLY! Down goes Claudio, but Yuta DROPKICKS Matt! Ace LARIATS Yuta up and out! Ace builds speed but Garcia trips him up! Ace kicks free, but Garcia blocks the kick! Ace handstands out of the throw, then avoids the sweep to PENALTY KCIK! But Connors APRON SPEARS Ace! The Gunns get Finlay with kicks and a whip, to then DOUBLE QUICK DRAW! Finlay flounders but Yuta is back! He gets a BODY SHOT, LARIAT, and “SUCK IT!” The Gunns wait on Yuta, but Garcia makes the save!
Claudio is back but Colten DECKS him! Connors and Finlay target Austin, he’s a deer in headlights for the DOUBLE SPEAR! Finlay fireman’s carries Colten to HOTSHOT, then Connors hits the JEEP FLIPPER! The fans boo but the Death Riders all stomp away on Colten, and Collision goes picture in picture.
The Dogs regroup as things finally sort out. They drag Austin around while Garcia stomps Ace. Finlay bends Austin’s fingers, then JAMS them into the mat! Colten is sent into barriers while Finlay bumps Austin off buckles. Tag to Claudio and the Death Dogs mug Austin. The Death Dogs then soak up the heat, and Claudio clamps onto Austin with a modified chinlock. Austin endures, reaches out, and he fights up. Austin wrenches free and ROCKS Claudio! Garcia tags in as Claudio keeps Austin back, and Garcia CLOBBERS him! Garcia talks trash on the fans, then puts Austin in a corner. Garcia rains down fists, and goes to nine before putting up his dukes.
Garcia hops down, still no dancing. Garcia drags Austin over, scoops, and SLAMS! Tag to Yuta, he soaks up heat while mockingly applauding Austin. Yuta dares Austin to go to his corner, but then dropkicks him down! Yuta taunts Austin, keeps him from his corner, but Austin ROCKS Yuta! And ROCKS him again! Yuta wobbles, Austin ROCKS Yuta! Yuta CLAWS the eyes, then pushes him over to cover, TWO! Austin toughs it out but Yuta mockingly applauds. Yuta clamps on a chinlock, Austin endures, and the fans rally. Austin fights up, up, and Collision returns to single picture as he hits the BIG back suplex!
The fans rally, Yuta hot tags Claudio, but the Death Dogs all BLAST the Bang Bang Bucks! Then the Cycle of Violence starts up on Austin! ELBOW, UPPERCUT, LARIAT, RAM, UPPERCUT, repeat! Then feed to Claudio for the GIANT SWING! Yuta DROPKICKS Austin out of it, covers, but the Bang Bang Bucks all break it! The Death Dogs throw them back out, and Claudio argues with the ref. Claudio taunts Austin, kicks him around, but Austin rises up. The fans rally as Claudio CHOPS! Austin CHOPS back! Claudio runs up, Austin wrenches to COMPLETE SHOT! The fans fire up as Austin brings Claudio down!
The fans rally as hard as they can, hot tags to Yuta and Colten! Colt 45 fires off LARIAT after LARIAT, even snap suplexes Garcia! Then he SPLASHES Yuta! Colten keeps moving, Colten Crossover to the NECKBREAKER! Claudio runs up but Colten TOSSES him out! Yuta runs up but Colten ELBOWS then URENAGES! Cover, TWO! Yuta survives, but Colten kicks! “SUCK IT!” But Claudio trips Colten up! Ace runs up and gets a boost to FLY out onto Claudio! Garcia sneaks a tag, Yuta dodges the splash, and now Garcia trips Colten! DRAGON TAMER!! The fans boo but Yuta adds a CURB STOMP!! Cover, TWO!!
The fans fire up as Colten survives that “Dark Horse” combo! Garcia whips but Colten blocks! Colten whips Garcia to then LARIAT him down! The fans fire up again as both men crawl. Hot tag to Matt! The fans cheer as Matt runs up but Garcia ELBOWS him! But Matt catches Garcia to a NORTHERN LIGHTS! The Polar Express gets going but Garcia slips around! Matt switches, Finlay sneaks a tag before the O’Conner! But Matt catches Finlay, and Connors, DOUBLE NORTHERN LIGHTS BRIDING COVER, TWO!! The fans fire up and Moxley admits the Bucks are always creative and innovative. Charleston knows “This is Awesome!” as Matt stands Finlay up.

Matt fires off on Connors, too, and The Bucks DOUBLE BULLDOG! The fans fire up with The Bucks, and they position The Dogs in the drop zone. The Bucks go up top while the fans cheer again, SWANTON BOMB and MACHO ELBOW! Matt asks if the fans are ready, for the Superkick Party~! SUPERKICK for Connors! SUPERKICK for Finlay! SUPERKICK for Finlay, then SUPERKICK for Connors! Yuta & Garcia run in, but they’re sent into Finlay & Connors!
The Dark Horses are stunned, and they turn around into DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! Then DOUBLE SUPERKICKS for Finlay! The fans are thunderous as The Bucks get Finlay, B T E TRIGGER!! Cover, YUTA BREAKS IT! But Ace is in, he KNEES and BOOTS Yuta to fireman’s carry! Ace does a squat to then DEATH VALLEY DRIVER! But Claudio BOOTS Ace! SUPERKICK for Claudio! Claudio rebounds to DUOBLE LARIAT! But 3:10 TO YUMA for Claudio! Garcia DUMPS Austin out, SHOTGUNS Colten, then ducks a kick! DOUBLE LARITS for Garcia and Nick! DOULE LARIATS for Austin and Connors! DOUBLE LARIATS for Ace and Yuta!
Finlay runs, but DOUBLE LARIATS for him and Matt! DOUBLE LARIATS for Colten and Claudio! They stay up, roar, and go again! DOUBLE LARIATS and they’re down after all! The fans are thunderous as all ten men are down around ringside! The fans cheer “A E DUB!” for making this Collision main event THE main event of the night.

Ace lands out! The Bucks join in, TRIPLE SUPERKICKS! Then a DOUBLE DIVE onto The Dogs! Ace hits THE FOLD!! Cover, Bang Bang Bucks win!!
Winners: The Young Bucks & The Bang Bang Gang, by pinfall
Moxley admits, that’s a great finishing move. Wrestling on TBS, what better way to end the night? But with this huge win for The Bucks and the Bang Bang Gang, will nothing stop these teams from taking back championship gold?
My Thoughts:
An awesome three hour block for AEW, which they’ve all but been doing lately anyway. But in the end, they still booked this as just a Dynamite followed by a Collision, not as one giant show. Though, with how they handled that very booking, it was fine for Darby VS Knight to be the Dynamite main event that then helped segue into filler Collision. The world title scene is getting full up mostly because everyone knows Darby is willing to take on anyone and everyone, other than MJF. But while I thought Darby was going to ask MJF to do the same deal as Cody and Hangman, he gives us the next best thing: Title VS Hair, and if MJF refuses, THEN he ends up like Cody and Hangman, aka banned from challenging for this title (at least while Darby has it, I presume).
Okada wanting the world title is kind of like, “About time!” I don’t see Darby losing on Dynamite if he’s also giving MJF his opportunity, but this all helps feed the Don Callis Family dysfunction. Andrade is slowly turning against Callis given Callis outright said Okada is his top pick for the top title. Andrade joining Konosuke’s side in this Callis Family Civil War would certainly be a great move given the absence of Kyle Fletcher choosing between #Protoshita and #Protokada. Pac calling out Darby was good stuff, and that match for “Fairway to Hell” will be great, but again, Darby will win that to then win against Okada and face MJF at Double or Nothing.
Rush crushed his opponent much faster than expected, he should definitely be challenging someone on the other side of Double or Nothing. Bailey VS Fox was really good, but Bailey should also be challenging for something after the PPV. An obvious answer is Knight VS Bailey just to see that match, but maybe LFI can have a serious feud with JetSpeed as part of a TNT Championship build. Great Double Jeopardy match, but they really just threw people out there for the fun of it. This and the wild 10 Man Tag to close the night all works to keep the tag and trios divisions strong while there’s this odd traffic jam while FTR VS C&C finally sorts out.
Jericho and Ricochet turning their rematch into a Stadium Stampede is pretty wild, I thought we were getting Mimosa Mayhem. But maybe Jericho can help Hurt Syndicate find those new members they are looking for through finding two more men to fight in that 5v5. Not sure who The Demand will get as their additional members, but it’d be kinda funny if they were the ones coming up empty because no one wants to deal with Ricochet’s ego. Either way, I would think Jericho gets the win through this, and then we can have Jericho VS Ricochet 1v1 one last time at All In: London. Very good promo from Swerve, very good response from Brodido, but not even sure the point of the feud other than a dream match to hold both guys over before bigger things.
Hilarious and great promo from Mina & Harley, great match from them and #Shidalander, but I figured Shida & Stat were winning that. They’re gonna stay strong up until the moment Shida finally turns on Stat. Very good match from Jamie VS Skye, and good win for Jamie, but hopefully Alex Windsor isn’t hurt too badly. Double or Nothing really should be some kind of Triple Threat to fit both the name and the story, so hopefully Windsor is back in time for the PPV. And great stuff with Will Ospreay, The Death Riders, and The Opps. Ospreay said he’s not joining Death Riders, he’s just getting their help. But he didn’t even mention Joe & The Opps, so I think Ospreay gets lumped in with Death Riders in the inevitable feud. Either way, Ospreay VS Joe will be amazing.
My Score: 9.1/10
