AEW Grand Slam Tournament of Champions, Semifinals: Jon Moxley VS Sammy Guevara!

The Maniac was impassioned about what the AEW World Championship means to him and what it means to the world of wrestling! Will that fire help him go to the finals and get another chance at the gold? Or will the Spanish God screw him over like he did Darby Allin?

The bell rings and the two circle as fans fire up. Moxley storms up on Sammy but Sammy bails out! Fans boo but Sammy just paces around the way. Moxley waits but fans taunt Sammy. Sammy gets in the ring, he ties up with Moxley, and Moxley headlocks for a takeover. Sammy rolls it to a cover, ONE and Moxley holds on tight. Sammy endures but Moxley shifts to get a knuckle lock cover, TWO! Moxley keeps the knuckle locks as Sammy fights up to his feet and they have a test of strength. Moxley backs Sammy down to a corner, then slowly lets off as the ref counts. Moxley swings, Sammy dodges and CHOPS, then fires off forearms!

Fans boo as Sammy stomps a mudhole into Mox then rains down fists. Sammy stomps Moxley more but the ref counts. Sammy lets off to soak up the heat, but Moxley gets up to CLOBBER Sammy! Fans fire up with Moxley and he drags Sammy up into underhooks! Sammy slips out of the Paradigm Shift and he CHOPS Moxley! Moxley eggs Sammy on so Sammy CHOPS again! Moxley CHOPS back, Sammy CHOPS, and Moxley CHOPS back! They CHOP and CHOP and CHOP, Moxley mocks Sammy’s lounging a second, then CHOPS again! Sammy throws forearms and CHOPS but Moxley fires forearms and uppercuts!

Moxley runs, Sammy puts him out and builds speed to DIVE! Direct hit at the ramp! Sammy gets going again and he FLIES this time! Fans boo but Sammy RAMS Moxley into steel steps! Sammy taunts Moxley, digs his head into the steps, then stomps another mudhole in! The ref counts, Sammy lets off and drags Moxley up with double wristlocks! Sammy CURB STOMPS Moxley into the steps! Fans are rallying for Moxley but Sammy stands over him as AEW goes picture in picture.

Sammy stands on the steel steps to soak up the heat, then he drags Moxley up to POST him! Sammy puts Moxley on the timekeeper’s table to rain down fists! Sammy even gets on the table to rain down more shots, and he CHOKES Moxley! But Moxley CHOKES Sammy back! And then TOSSES Sammy over the timekeeper’s table! Moxley drags Sammy up, brings him back around, and he CHOPS Sammy down! Moxley then drags Sammy up to snap suplex to the floor! Moxley refreshes the ring count, drags Sammy up, but Sammy blocks the whip! Sammy kicks low then POSTS Moxley again! Sammy CLOBBERS Moxley into the ring, then covers, TWO!

Sammy keeps on Moxley with a rain of fists! Sammy lets off to soak up the heat and stalk Moxley to ropes. Sammy throws forearms and Moxley staggers. But then Moxley gets around to get a SLEEPER! Sammy RAMS Moxley into a corner! Sammy is free, he CHOPS Moxley again, and Moxley staggers and flops. Moxley goes to the apron and Sammy follows him out there. Dynamite returns to single picture as Sammy drags Moxley up. Moxley fights Sammy’s Gotch lift so Sammy CLUBS him. Moxley HEADBUTTS back! And HEADLOCK DRIVERS on the apron! Fans fire up for that dirty deed, and Moxley gets back in the ring.

Fans count along with the ring count as Sammy flounders. We’re past 5 of 10, Sammy springs up and in at 7! Fans boo but Moxley is amused. Moxley fires up and fans rally behind him. Moxley runs in to clothesline hard! And again! And again! Moxley puts Sammy up top and CHOPS him! Moxley climbs up, CLAWS Sammy’s back, and even some more! The ref reprimands, so Moxley BITES Sammy’s forehead! Moxley then drags Sammy up, for a SUPER BUTTERFLY SUPLEX! Moxley crawls to the cover, TWO, but into the KIMURA! Sammy endures the double wristlock, moves around, but Moxley has a TRIANGLE HOLD!

Sammy stacks the hold to a cover, TWO! But into the BOSTON CRAB! But Moxley turns that over to kick Sammy away. Moxley runs into the corner, misses and Sammy RAMS into Moxley! Sammy goes out to ENZIGURI! Then Sammy springboards for the FLYING CUTTER! Cover, TWO!! Moxley is showing the toughness of a world champion and fans fire up! Sammy drags Moxley into the torture rack, but Moxley slips off into a throw and BULLY CHOKE!! Sammy endures, moves around, but Moxley traps him for HAMMER ‘N’ ANVIL ELBOWS!! Then Moxley drags Sammy up for the KING KONG- SPANISH FLY!! Cover, TWO!!

Sammy is beside himself but “This is Awesome!” as the standing count starts. Sammy of course stands first, and he drags Moxley into a drop zone. Sammy climbs up, fans boo, but Moxley springs up to CLUB Sammy on the back! Moxley climbs up behind Sammy, for a SUPER GERMAN SUPLEX! Both men are down again and another standing count begins! Wait, here comes Tay Melo AND Anna Jay “A S.” Anna throws her jacket in, the ref has to get that out of the ring, but that allows Tay to slip in and LOW BLOW Moxley!! Tay scurries away, Anna hops off the apron and Sammy cradles Moxley! TWO!!! Moxley survives the screw job!

Fans are thunderous while the JAS is furious! Sammy goes up top, aims at Moxley, SWANTON FLOPS as Moxley moves! Moxley hurries after Sammy for the ghost pin! TWO!! Sammy escapes and TayJay coaches him up. Moxley and Sammy are forehead to forehead, and Sammy fires off forearm after forearm after forearm after forearm! Moxley SLAPS Sammy, SLAPS, and KICKS and SLAPS and ROCKS him with forearms! Sammy JUMP KNEES! SUPERKICKS! And then torture racks, GO TO- NO! Moxley lands out to hit DEATH RIDER!! Cover, Moxley wins!!

Winner: Jon Moxley, by pinfall (advances to the finals)

The Jericho Appreciation Society tried another underhanded tactic, but it failed to stop the Blackpool Combat Club’s Blue Eyed Battler! But the question is now, will Moxley be facing the leader of the JAS? Or will he be facing his own teammate in Bryan Danielson?

 

AEW returns as MJF storms out to the ring!

Maxwell Jacob Friedman already wants his music to cut so he can talk. “Albany, if I wanted you to talk, you’d know! So keep your fat mouths shut!” Fans still cheer and jeer as MJF steps through the ropes to say, “Seven days, Jon Moxley. Seven long days, I haven’t slept a week since you and me came toe to toe last week. And do you know why? It’s cuz- SHUT YOUR DAMN MOUTHS! It’s because I saw the look in your eyes, man. You had the look of a man who had no fear, and you have no idea how much that pisses me off. See, you must have me confused with somebody else. You see a podium in this ring? You see an MJF 2020 sign? Nah, you don’t.

“Cuz I’m not the same kid I was the first time you and I crossed paths, Jon. Not by a long shot. Nah, nah, nah. Cuz I ain’t playing a character, Jon, you are. Walking around all tough, Big Bad Jon Moxley. You’re a joke! You’re about as much of a joke as these shmucks! But I read your book, Jon. It was a real good read. I especially love the part where you talked about your childhood. Cuz it turns out, you were raised much the same as all these people here in Albany, New York: UNEDUCATED, POOR, WHITE TRASH SCUMBAG FROM THE STICKS!” Fans cheer, they are apparently proud of that.

And Moxley got bullied, right? Cameraman, get in the corner! MJF says Moxley got beat down, got his bike stolen. “And when stuff like that happens, it forces men to put on a front. And it works, Jon, you built a great character. That’s why these morons chant your name every week!” They can chant all they want, they might buy it, but MJF doesn’t. MJF knows Moxley. Deep down, Moxley’s still that same scared boy from the slums of Cincinnati. The only difference is, now Moxley is old enough to drown that childhood drama in alcohol like a worthless drunk! But MJF gives Moxley credit: He beat the habit.

MJF shouts at a fan, “You shut your mouth, fat boy!!” MJF gives Moxley credit for getting sober. That takes a lot of guts, bravery, etc. Moxley slayed the demons and defeated the disease. But the problem is, MJF’s brain is far more dangerous than a disease! This is not just a message to Moxley, this is a message to Jericho and Bryan: “Bad things happen when people get in MJF’s way.” So Moxley should take that vacation he was planning on and skip Grand Slam. Because if MJF was Moxley, he wouldn’t want to win MJF’s AEW World Championship! “Make no mistake about it, Albany, it’s MY title!”

MJF says when Moxley came back, he told a story about a demon. That demon hung over Moxley like a black cloud. The demon told Moxley everything he earned since leaving the slums, he doesn’t deserve. The demon said he’d take everything away from Moxley: his family, his fame, his fortune. But know this, Moxley. If you do not tread lightly, he will find MJF is that demon!! And MJF is a demon you can’t slay! “Now, Albany, let’s get down to business. Not that that’s something you can understand since you’re all poor. A young group of gentlemen helped me procure my chip in the Casino Ladder Match. All these men all come from different walks of life, and yet they all share the same goals.

“Allow me to introduce to you the first-ever stable on retainer, led by a man who is my best friend, a man who I have known since I was 19 years old, and a man who’s got more talent in his little pinkie than any of you worthless pieces of s*it have. Stokely Hathaway, and The Firm!” Stokely Hathaway leads Ethan Page, Lee Moriarty, Austin & Colten Gunn, and W. Morrissey out to the ring, and MJF has their music cut. Fans taunt the “ASS BOYS!” but Stokely tells Albany that it may not be Sunday, but here’s some gospel. Some time ago, Stokely flew from Orlando, Florida to New York City to meet his best friend and #1 contender to the world title, Maxwell Jacob Friedman.

“This man was disenfranchised and wanted to quit AEW, until I told him, ‘If you quit, you’re gonna give everyone exactly what they want. And now it’s time for you to get what you want.'” So they sat down, prayed and prayed, and found a logical solution: putting everyone in this ring on retainer. They are MJF’s support system while gaining opportunities for themselves. And tonight is one of the rare times you will see them all together, because when MJF doesn’t need them, they go their separate ways. So Hathaway will admit this for the first time on live, national TV: “I’m not a publicist. I’m not a manager. And I damn sure ain’t no assistant.”

Who is he? A friend. A friend who has the network and connections to make anything happen, and some of you will wish they had a friend like him. Everything Hathaway has done since Double or Nothing has been a lie! A hustle! A con! All so Hathaway could “infiltrate” the system. And how did he do that? A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Like kicking it with Britt Baker & Jamie Hayter to watching reruns of Living Single with The House of Black. “There is not one rock that I haven’t unturned. And where I’m from, there’s a phrase, ‘The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice.’ And on one hand, that means love and adoration for our beautiful Black queens. And on the other hand, that means the juicier the gossip, the more power you have.

“And there’s nothing like good old fashioned blackmail! And that’s what makes me wake up in the morning. That is what turns me on. So let’s talk about what everyone wants, and what they’re here for.” Hathaway goes to “Big Deal” Morrissey, and he already knows what he wants. Morrissey wants to do whatever he wants. And since no one here is gonna say it, Hathaway will. “We appreciate you, and I love you.” Hathaway hugs Morrissey! Hathaway moves on to Moriarty, “All praises due to Allah. I told you if you trusted him, he would provide.” Hathaway says it is time for #TYGASTYLE to become a star! And also, bring some honor back to the ROH Pure title!

The Gunns, Austin & Colten- “ASS~ BOYS!” NO! The GUNNS! They are NOT boys, they are men! And they no longer want to walk in the shadow of their broke ass daddy! They want to become AEW World Tag Team Champions, and you may not take them seriously, but you will! And of course, Ethan “All Ego” Page. Fans actually still like him. Hathaway has known Ethan for over ten years, they’ve been up and down the road together. Best friends, bitter enemies, and Hathaway knows Ethan wants to represent his country, his beautiful homeland of Canada, and do something he couldn’t before hanging around “knuckleheads.” Ethan wants the All-Atlantic Championship!

“So there you have it. Ladies and gentlemen, we are The Firm, and when we are around, you only have two options: Either run with us, or run from us.” The Firm has issued their business plan, will business be booming for each and every one of them?

 

Backstage interview with “Jungle Boy” Jack Perry.

JB admits, All Out did not go the way he expected. And before that, the last time he had a match was in June. There is a tall, tall task ahead of JB in confronting Luchasaurus, which is why tonight, he has signed an open contract for a match! It is time to get back into the swing of things!

They’re already mocking JB putting out the challenge. Sonjay says he’s going emphasize the “boy” in “Jungle Boy,” because this boy is throwing out an open challenge for Dynamite.

Satnam still looms over JB while Lethal catches his breath. The ref goes out to back Satnam up and check on JB. JB is still in this somehow, and Lethal goes out to drag JB up. Lethal RAMS JB into the apron, and JB crawls away. Lethal drags JB back up, puts him in the ring, and stalks JB as he crawls more. Lethal soaks up the heat and he stomps JB on the back.

Lethal throws another, but JB throws a CHOP! Lethal CLUBS the back, JB CHOPS! Lethal forearms, JB forearms, they stand as the forearms keep flying!

AEW looks at the training session of Hook and Action Bronson.

The Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil is getting Bronson ready for their showdown with Matt Menard & Angelo Parker. Bronson says, “You’re looking at New York City right here. Born and raised. Next week, Grand Slam, New York City, Arthur Ashe, Daddy Magic, Angelo. We’re gonna whoop your ass. Straight like that. No more games.” Hook warns them to be ready. Will the JAS regret asking for them to #SendHookAndBronson?

 

Backstage interview with Luigi Primo.

Since New York is known for its pizza, Alex Marvez introduces the premier pizzamaker pro-wrestler! Luigi Primo is flipping that dough and ready to go! But then Ethan Page BOOTS Luigi down! Marvez asks, “What’re you doing?!” “What am I doing? What nobody does around here: take this job serious!” But Danhausen walks in! Is Ethan talking about seriousness? Danhausen just got a big win on AEW Dark last night. Ethan says good, congratulations. This is extremely fitting, by the way. Since Ethan Page’s big goal is to become the King of the Atlantic, he’ll start with the jester of AEW, this Friday on Rampage. Good luck, buddy. Make a joke.

Ethan leaves and Danhausen says they’ll get that jester! Oh wait, did he mean Danhausen? Will the very first stepping stone in All Ego’s rise be the Very Nice, Very Evil Overlord?

 

Darby Allin was at Nitro Circus last Friday.

The Relentless One was at their Coney Island show, and he decided to do a tricycle backflip! He spun out, hit the airbag wall, but he got back up to try again. And the second time was a success!

Matt Hardy speaks.

“Wow! Bravo, Darby! That was insane! Dude, when it comes to doing extreme things, you continue to raise the bar, up the ante, and I respect that. It kind of reminds me of that match you had with my brother some months back. You guys went to the extreme in that match. And y’know, I’ve dabbled into the extreme myself. I’m actually one of the OG members of Team Extreme. And I do respect you, Darby, I know you know that. You’re not only one of my greatest rivals, you’re also one of my greatest partners. But I have refocused here in AEW. And I will scratch and claw my way back to the top. And that’s why I’m challenging you, Darby Allin, to a match this Friday on Rampage.”

Is Hardy going to reboot and return to V1 in order to be number one again? Or will Darby show him that his extreme and Hardy’s extreme are on different levels?

 

“Powerhouse” Will Hobbs VS Matt DiMartino!

Winner: Will Hobbs, by pinfall

And Hobbs gets that money! Hobbs also gets the mic, but fans chant, “We Want Ricky!” Hobbs says, “At All Out, I defeated Ricky Starks. No, no, no, don’t get me wrong, don’t get me wrong. Ricky is tough. I spent 21 months in the trenches with Ricky, grinding. But at All Out, it only took four minutes and 35 seconds for me to beat him. But who’s counting?” Hobbs says now that the chapter is closed on Starks, it is time to open up a new chapter in the Book of Hobbs. And it starts tonight. Wait! RICKY STARKS is walking down the bleachers! Fans fire up as Starks head for ringside and gets past security! He fires off on Hobbs!

Fans fire up and Starks CLOBBERS Hobbs with the mic! Hobbs tumbles out of the ring but he leaves it at that. Starks glares at Hobbs, is he planning on keeping this chapter going?

 

Death Triangle speaks.

Penta says they are The Lucha Brothers, THE BEST tag team. And together, they will ALL be double champions! ANIMO! CERO MIEDO!

Winners: Swerve In Our Glory, by pinfall (still AEW World Tag Team Champions)

The tag titles stay in the Limitless House! But wait! Here comes The Acclaimed! Max Caster has the music cut, though, which fans are disappointed in. But Caster still says, “Yo, listen! Swerve, if you ever interrupt my rap again, I’m a beat your ass! So keep doing what you do best, and that’s nut hugging every famous person you know. Get your boy, Keith Lee, roll his ass to New York City, so that next week at Grand Slam, your uncrowned champs, The Acclaimed, can become World Tag Team Champions!” Fans like the sound of that!

Anthony Bowens takes the mic to say, “New York City! Dynamite Grand Slam! The Acclaimed are gonna kick your Drake & Josh looking asses all over that city! Because EVERYONE loves the Acclaimed!! NOW SCISSOR ME, DADDY ASS!!” It will be an epic rematch from All Out, will The Acclaimed redeem themselves and take the gold? Or will they once again #SwerveInOurGlory?

 

Backstage interview with The Lucha Brothers.

Alex Marvez wants to hear from Fenix & Penta after that “bump in the road,” but Alex gets them to the locker room. Pac, however, hangs back to confront Marvez on how he phrased it. “Bump in the road?” If Marvez has already forgotten who Death Triangle are, allow him to remind you. “We are the AEW Trios Champions, and me? I’m the inaugural AEW All-Atlantic Champion! First-ever double champion! So put some respect on the name and mind your own business.” But then someone sucker punches Pac! It’s ORANGE CASSIDY! “Double Double Champion, huh? Not for long.” Will Cassidy become the Freshly Squeezed All-Atlantic Champion soon enough?

 

Toni Storm & Athena VS Serena Deeb & Britt Baker w/ Rebel!

The AEW Women’s World Championship is now on #ToniTime, and she’s ready for competition. Now, this was supposed to be Storm & Shida, but Britt Baker “shockingly” beat down Shida backstage before the show began. Storm said that’s fine, because she has another friend who is more than capable of stepping in. The Falling Goddess takes care of her teeth, she doesn’t need a Dentist! Will they expose how helpless Britt is without her Hayter? Or will the Wolf be a suitable substitute as Britt’s sidekick?

The teams sort out and Storm starts against Deeb. They circle, knuckle lock, and Deeb rolls to wrench and wrangle Storm down. Deeb hammerlocks but Storm slips around to hammerlock back. Deeb stands up, snapmares free and chinlocks, but Storm slips right out to wristlock then headlock for a takeover. Deeb headscissors but Storm kips free, so Deeb headlocks for a takeover back. Storm headscissors, Deeb kips free, and fans cheer the standoff. Deeb and Storm reset, tie up, and Deeb pushes Storm to a corner. The ref counts, Deeb lets off to CHOP! And CHOP! And CHOP! But Storm turns things around to CHOP away on Deeb!

The ref counts on Storm now but Storm lets off to stomp. Storm bumps Deeb off buckles, tags in Athena, and Storm scoop SLAMS Deeb, for Athena’s slingshot SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Deeb runs in but Athena dodges! Athena SHOTGUNS Deeb into a corner! Fans fire up, Athena handspring FOREARMS! Athena brings Deeb around, Canadian Racks and hits a CLIFFHANGER CODE BREAKER! Athena then hurries up top, but Britt distracts her. Athena swipes at Britt, so Deeb CHOP BLOCKS Athena! Fans boo but Deeb drags Athena to the apron to SLAM the leg on the edge! Deeb keeps after the leg as AEW goes picture in picture!

Deeb SLAMS Athena’s leg one more time then lets off. Deeb high fives with Rebel and then SLAPS the bad leg. Athena crawls but Deeb keeps her from Storm with an elbow drop to the leg! And another! Deeb GROUND DRAGON SCREWS the leg! Athena crawls to a corner but Deeb grins as she stalks her. Deeb stands Athena up to CHOP her! Deeb gets the bad leg to DRAGON SCREW again! Deeb soaks up the heat while Athena writhes. Tag to Britt and she taunts Storm while standing between her and Athena. Britt stands Athena up, ROCKS her with forearms, then whips her to ropes. But the leg gives out and Athena falls!

Britt laughs at Athena’s pain, kicks at her bad leg, then drags her up. Britt CHOKES Athena against ropes but lets off as the ref counts. Britt ROCKS Athena, whips her again, but again the leg gives out! Athena crawls but Britt keeps her from storm. Britt chinlocks to grind Athena down, then she stands Athena up to ROCK again! BUTTERFLY SUPLEX! Britt kicks at Athena then tags in Deeb. Deeb rushes in to CLUB away on Athena’s back. Athena throws forearms but Deeb DECKS her! Deeb steps through on the leg for an INDIAN DEATHLOCK! Athena endures and CHOPS at Deeb! And CHOPS and CHOPS and CHOPS!

Deeb lets Athena free of the hold and clutches her stinging chest. Deeb grabs the bad leg but Athena ENZIGURIS Deeb as Dynamite returns to single picture! Fans rally as both women crawl, hot tags to Britt and Storm! The Lightning rallies on Britt, BOOTS Deeb, but Britt kicks low! Britt whips but Storm SHOTGUNS! Britt goes to a corner, Storm UPPERCUTS and leg sweeps! Storm goes corner to corner, but Deeb gets Britt outta there! So Storm BOOTS Deeb and hits Britt with a TORNADO DDT to the floor! Fans fire up with Storm and Storm puts Britt back in. Storm drags Britt up, but no satellite as Britt powers out!

Britt runs, and SLINGBLADES Storm down! Britt hurries, but so does Storm, hot tags to Deed and Athena! Athena spins Deeb around to ROCK her! Deeb UPPERCUTS, Athena forearms! Deeb UPPERCUTS, Athena fires off forearm after forearm! Deeb wobbles, Athena runs, ducks ‘n’ dodges to springboard, into an ARMBAR!! Deeb has Athena caught but Athena clasps the hands! Deeb CLUBS the hands but Athena moves around to stack! TWO, and Deeb still has the arm! Athena tries again, TWO, and Athena deadlifts Deeb! But Deeb sunset flips! Athena slips through to POINT-BLANK METEORA! Hot tag back to Storm!

Storm goes up top and aims at Deeb, CROSSBODY! But Deeb rolls it through to a HALF CRAB! Storm endures, crawls, but Deeb drags her away! Deeb has the hold in deep, but Athena KICKS her! Deeb stays up and eggs Athena on! Athena fires off forearms on Deeb, but Britt SUPERKICKS Athena! And SUPERKICKS Storm! The ref reprimands but Deeb jackknife bridges! Athena breaks it with a SENTON! Britt didn’t even realize what happened but sees Athena. Britt throws Athena out then RAMS her into steel steps! Deeb and Storm slowly rise and fans rally up. Deeb drags Storm up, reels her in, tucks the arms, but Storm slips out!

Storm waistlocks but Deeb resists! Rebel distracts the ref and Britt gets a chair! Britt wedges the chair between the ropes, and Deeb switches with Storm to RAM her into the chair! Deeb rolls Storm up, Deeb & Britt win!

Winners: Serena Deeb & Britt Baker, by pinfall

But then Athena CLOBBERS them both! The Fallen Goddess fires off on Britt, fires off on Deeb, and she DECKS Deeb, only for Britt to SUPERKICK her down! Britt runs to CURB STOMP Athena! Britt gets the chair, but here comes JAMIE HAYTER! The Hayter stops Britt from finishing this by taking the chair! But then Hayter JAMS Storm with it! And SMACKS Storm, too! Hayter says she didn’t do that for Britt, she still doesn’t like Storm. But Hayter also warns Britt that her time is coming! Britt keeps trying to apologize, but is it too late for that? As for Deeb, she pinned the AEW World Champion. Is the Professor of Pro-Wrestling about to get her title shot?

 

Mark Sterling, Tony Nese & Josh Woods speak.

Smart Mark says, “First of all, we have a few things to say.” Tony Nese says last week on Dynamite, Wardlow used a “cheap shot” headbutt to gain an advantage over him. And then after the bell, Wardlow tried to powerbomb Nese, and even tried to “kill” Sterling! Thank goodness Josh Woods was there to save them both. That is why this Friday on Rampage, Woods has his ROH World TV Championship match against Samoa Joe. The National Champion, the former ROH Pure Champion, and finally, the future ROH TV Champion, giving AEW and ROH the television recognition they both desperately need. But will the Technical Beast be slain by the Samoan Submission Machine?

 

BREAKING NEWS for Grand Slam!

After the chaotic scene after the match, Toni Storm will defend her Interim AEW Women’s World Championship against Serena Deeb, but she will also defend it against Britt Baker and Athena! It will be another Fatal 4 Way for the interim title! Will this title still be on #ToniTime? Or will Lightning From Down Under fail to strike twice against the Wolf, the Dentist and the Goddess?

Plus, after that sucker Orange Punch, Orange Cassidy finally gets the title match he wants! Will Cassidy take away one of the Bastard’s belts? Or Pac make sure he turns Orange into pulp?

 

AEW Grand Slam Tournament of Champions, Semifinals: Chris Jericho VS Bryan Danielson!

We already know Moxley is waiting in the finals, but this main event is going to be All Out all over again!

Winner: Bryan Danielson, by submission (advances to the finals)

The American Dragon slays the Lionheart! We’ve got BCC VS BCC in the finals for THE AEW World Championship! William Regal is proud of both men, but he knows next week will be “torturous” since it’ll be teammates facing each other. Speaking of, here comes Moxley! Bryan manages to stand and he walks up to Moxley. Fans are fired up to see this one, and the two shake hands. Will Moxley get his FOURTH AEW World Championship run? Or will Bryan finally return to the top of the mountain?


My Thoughts:

A great episode of Dynamite that also acts as a go-home to next week’s Grand Slam special. Great stuff out of the tournament of champions, with Moxley VS Guevara as an awesome opener and with Jericho VS Bryan as an awesome main event. I figured TayJay would try to help Sammy, and I’m glad they failed to win this for him. Now, the surprise was Jericho losing to Bryan, but at the same time, it had to happen because Jericho won at All Out. Moxley VS Bryan, BCC VS BCC for the title, that is going to be epic. Either way, the BCC will be on top of AEW, so this could go either way.

I like that Jungle Boy is willing to take on anyone while he’s waiting to face Luchasaurus and Christian Cage. JB VS Lethal was great stuff, and it was a great win for JB given Lethal’s resume. I’m sure if JB tries an open challenge again, Luchasaurus will sabotage it, or maybe even accept it. I would think JB wins against Luchasaurus and then we wait for Christian VS JB to finally settle this. Hobbs was of course winning his squash match tonight, but it was even more obvious after seeing his opponent. Starks showing up was great, too, and we’re clearly getting that rematch for Full Gear. I just wonder if Starks will really win that with how strong they can/should push Hobbs.

Being introduced to “The Firm” was a good segment. Hathaway is great on the mic, and I like that he revealed to us that he was indeed ditching The Baddies for his own interests. Ethan makes the first move from that group, ruining Luigi Primo’s AEW television debut, and setting up a match with Danhausen. I would think Ethan will win that to make his point about getting rid of “comedy” wrestlers in AEW. Cassidy getting serious and going after PAC was also a surprise. I wonder if Cassidy wins the All-Atlantic title to then defend it against Ethan. Likewise, I have a feeling that Gunn Club goes after whoever holds the tag titles after next week.

We got an awesome tag title match out of Keith & Swerve VS Lucha Bros, but of course Keith & Swerve retained. Acclaimed had a good promo to call them out, and that rematch from All Out is going to be amazing. Lucha Bros of course can focus on the Trios titles with Pac, regardless if Pac retains against Cassidy. Hangman and Dark Order can try again, Best Friends can try again, and maybe after the suspension from #BrawlOut is served, The Elite can try again. Not to mention any other trio from any other company, like Impact, AAA or NJPW. The possibilities are endless, and that makes for a lot of fun.

Good promos to set up other matches, such as Hardy calling out Darby and Sterling’s stable calling out Samoa Joe. Those matches will be great stuff, but I’m pretty sure Joe wins against Woods. Hardy VS Darby is an interesting move but perhaps this is the adjustment after Malakai Black leaving AEW. An interesting choice but not a bad one. Great stuff from MJF after Moxley’s win, and I’m thinking MJF being obsessed with Moxley means Moxley does win, but it’d be a shame if it were that obvious. Either way, we know MJF wants the title, so he’ll definitely target whoever wins next week.

And great stuff out of the women’s division. We may be only getting one segment a show, if even that, but at least tonight and next week, AEW is maximizing that opportunity. Great tag match, and great win for Deeb and Britt because of how they Heel’d it up. Hayter getting involved was a nice touch, as she maintains an almost Tweener thing now, beating down Storm for herself but putting Britt on notice. And next week, another Fatal 4 for the interim title, that is going to be awesome stuff. I would hope Toni retains, and maybe from there we get a 1v1 feud of Storm and Deeb while Hayter and Britt feud on the side.

My Score: 9/10

Thunder Rosa VS Harley Cameron!

La Mera Mera told us during Collision that she’ll be watching Mariah VS Mina very closely. But will she make sure to focus on the crazy Aussie that won’t leave her alone? Or will she feel the wrath of… Harley-gram?

The bell rings and Rosa is confused as to how Harley thinks she’s fooling anyone. The fans rally for “LUCHA! LUCHA!” as Rosa rolls and trips Harley in one move! Rosa has the leg, the fans keep up the chant of “LUCHA! LUCHA!” and Rosa floats all over Harley. Then she pushes Harley to a cover, TWO! Rosa wrenches to wristlock, but Harley wrenches back. Harley hammerlocks, headlocks, but Rosa powers up and out. Harley runs Rosa over, keeps moving, then she rolls over the dropdown. Rosa bypasses Harley but Harley springboards to FLYING ARM-DRAG! Rosa goes to a corner, Harley runs up, but Rosa puts her on the apron.

Harley block a shot but not the ROUNDHOUSE! Rosa staggers back, Harley goes up, in, and FLYING ARM-DRAGS again! The fans cheer as Rosa runs up but Harley puts her against ropes. Harley whips, Rosa reverses, but Harley slips around to roll Rosa up. TWO, but Harley is right on Rosa. Harley knees low, then she THROWS Rosa down by her hair! Then Harley-gram takes off her mask to reveal, “IT WAS ME!” It was Harley Cameron all along! Well, duh. Harley grins, but Rosa CHOPS her down! And CHOPS her again! And CHOPS her again! Rosa brings Harley up to whip, then she DROPKICKS Harley down!

The fans cheer and Rosa says SHE is a luchadora! Rosa storms up, blocks Harley’s boot, then puts Harley’s leg in the ropes. Then she puts the other leg in the ropes! Harley wants mercy but she gets a CHOP instead! Rosa fires up the fans, CHOPS again, and then Rosa rolls and comes back! SHOTGUN! Harley falls down and the fans fire up! Rosa drags Harley to a cover, TWO! Harley survives but Rosa keeps her from her mask! BOSTON CRAB! Harley endures, but Rosa reaches back to get the arms! REVERSE MEXICAN SURFBOARD! Harley still endures as Rosa swings her around, then DROPS her down! Cover, TWO!

Harley stays in this but Rosa stays on her. Rosa brings Harley up, but Harley throat chops! The fans boo but Harley knees low again and again. Harley clinches for a RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! Cover, TWO! Rosa stays in this, but Harley goes back to her mask! She again becomes Harley-gram, and she shouts, “I AM LUCHA!” Harley runs up to SPLASH Rosa in the corner! Harley wraps Rosa’s leg around ropes and thrashes it! The ref reprimands but Harley lets go, to then 619 the hips! The fans are torn but Harley soaks it all up. Harley poses, then drags Rosa to the corner. Harley has the legs, but Rosa YANKS her into the post!

Rosa hurries out after Harley, YANKS the mask away, then SLAPS her with it! Rosa SMACKS Harley off the apron, CHOPS her, and Harley runs away into the ring. Rosa pursues, but dodges Harley, to LARIAT! And ELBOW! And then Rosa stomps around. The fans fire up and Rosa runs in, for a BASEMENT DROPKICK against ropes! Rosa isn’t done there, she tucks Harley in! Harley fights but Rosa still lifts her, PACKAGE PILEDRIVER! Cover, Rosa wins!

Winner: Thunder Rosa, by pinfall

Harley tried to trick us all, but Rosa took her down again! Rosa holds up a fan’s sign that says, “Women’s Wrestling is Alive and Well,” and that is most certainly true! Will Rosa then be leading the charge as she chases down whoever has the AEW Women’s World title?

 

Backstage interview with Mercedes Mone.

Renee Paquette is with The CEO, and Mone tells, “Rampaaage~! Say hello to your C E O.” Renee brings up Dynamite and Kamille but Mone stops her there. Mone does not ever wanna hear that name out of Renee’s mouth ever again. Mone is NOT here to talk about Kamille. She is here to celebrate a special edition Lucha Libre Rampage! Everyone knows how much Mone loves lucha libre. Eddie Guerrero is still Mone’s favorite, she grew up watching him, so she is just feeling some type of way. She is so thankful during this time of year, and she is most thankful for… herself! Mone is thankful for her and her money.

And before asking another question, Renee, we all know Christmas is around the corner. And what Mone wants is even more championship gold! And we all know money changes everything. It seems the TBS Championship AND NJPW Strong Women’s Championships are not enough, but will the world (title) never be enough for The CEO?

 

Six Man Tag: Top Flight VS Katsuyori Shibata, Atlantis Jr. & Mascara Dorada 2.0!

Action Andretti & The Martin Brothers are always ready to fly, especially on a night promising lucha libre from start to finish. But will taking on The Wrestler, the second generation luchador and the current World Historic Welterweight Champion be one fight Top Flight won’t win?

The trios sort out and Shibata starts against Darius. They circle, feel things out, and knuckle lock. They go shoulder to shoulder, but then Shibata slips around to waistlock. Darius switches, Shibata wrenches out and wrangles Darius to the mat. Shibata has the arm but Darius wrenches. Shibata wrenches, Action tries to get a “Top Flight! Woop Woop!” going but fans aren’t that into it. Darius rolls, handsprings and wrenches, but Shibata rolls and wrenches right back. Darius fights the double wristlock to waistlock, but Shibata pries free to leg trip! KNEEBAR! Darius flounders and reaches out, ROPEBREAK!

Shibata lets go, Darius hobbles up, and Shibata KICKS him in the chest! Shibata snapmares Darius then clamps on a chinlock. Darius endures, fights around, and fires a body shots. The fans rally as Shibata snapmares Darius down into a chinlock, and he digs a knee in. Darius endures, so Shibata pushes Darius down to scrape the soles off his face! Tag to Mascara Dorada and he reels Darius in. Darius headlocks to counter, but Dorada powers up and out. Dorada drops, Darius rolls, and Darius goes up to FLYING ARM-DRAG! Dorada gets up but Darius DROPKICKS him down! Darius wrenches an arm, tags in Action, and Action takes the handoff.

Action whips, Dorada reverses then hurdles. Action leaps over, things keep moving, and Dorada flips to RANA, but Action handsprings through! Fans cheer the athleticism and Action keeps things moving! Action RANAS, but Dorada handsprings and backflips! Dorada wags his finger, blocks a kick, and spins Action to then SPIN KICK! The fans fire up as Action drops to his knees. Tag to Atlantis and the CMLL stars double whip. They leap frog, then DOUBLE HIP TOSS into TU LO SABE! Cover, TWO! Action survives but Atlantis stays cool. Atlantis grabs a leg, stomps Action, then whips him to ropes.

Action ducks ‘n’ dodges, Dante tags in, but Atlantis fights Action’s waistlock. Atlantis suplexes but Dante saves Action. They double kick and double whip to DOUBLE ELBOW Atlantis down! Action rolls to go up onto Dante’s shoulders! ELECTRIC CHAIR SENTON! Dante covers, TWO! The fans fire up and Dante drags Atlantis up. Dante whips Atlantis but Atlantis reverses. Dante comes back to RANA but Atlantis sunset flips it! TWO, and both men hurry to their feet! Dante knees low, winds up, but Atlantis slips around to backslide! TWO, and Atlantis whips Dante. SNAP POWERSLAM!

The fans fire up and Atlantis rises again. Action talks trash, Atlantis talks trash back, and then Atlantis CLUBS Dante. Atlantis then hooks Dante up, for an INVERTED CRUCIFIX DRIVER!! Ghost pin out of it, TWO!! Dante survives and the fans fire up again! Atlantis drags Dante up to CLUB him on the neck again and again. Dante fires body shots, then he DROPKICKS Atlantis down! The fans rally while both men catch their breath, and Rampage goes picture in picture.

Dante brings Atlantis up, whips him, but Atlantis reverses. Dante avoids the powerslam to DOUBLE STOMP! Cover, TWO! Dante drags Atlantis into raining down fists!

Backstage interview with Nick & Mother Wayne.

Renee Paquette is now with the Patriarchy’s Prodigy and Matriarch, and brings up that per the request of Christian Cage, it will be Nick Wayne VS Hook in the Hammerstein Ballroom! Does Nick feel prepared for this match? Nick smirks, and says he signed a contract to AEW when he was just 16 years old, before he even graduated high school. And Renee wants to question if Nick is ready for Hook? Sure, Hook is dangerous, but how dangerous is he when he has to sneak attack Nick when he’s not paying attention? And it’s reasons like that that Nick begged his “father,” Christian Cage, to get this match made in Hook’s hometown, in a venue that Hook’s dad made famous!

Nick also did it to prove to not just Christian but the entire world what the REAL future of pro-wrestling looks like. So Hook, see you at home. Or will he? Nick questions the courage of the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil, but will The Patriarchy regret giving Hook three weeks to prepare?

Winner: Hechicero, by pinfall

An instant classic from two lucha icons, but it was the Alchemist who wins out! Will Komander be able to recover so that he can make an impact in the Dynamite Dozen Battle Royal?


My Thoughts:

A great Rampage, especially with the theme of lucha libre and the crossover with CMLL stars. Though that said, of course the CMLL stars were winning. Great stuff in the Six Man Tag, and an awesome main event from Hechicero VS Komander. Mortos VS Serpentico was surprisingly good, though I guess that’s because Serpentico got to show his stuff. Thanks to the prerecorded nature of Collision and Rampage, Mortos gets to lose a match in Chicago, Illinois but win one in Reading, Pennsylvania. And of course Rosa beat Harley again, but I really appreciate commentary playing along like Harley-gram wasn’t at all obviously Harley Cameron. Rosa’s win here definitely keeps her primed for a shot at the world championship after Winter is Coming.

Good promo from just six of the Dynamite Diamond Dozen, and as I said for Collision, I’m thinking this comes down to Kyle and Cole. They’ll fight, and as much as I want Cole to win, it’s probably Kyle, and then we get Kyle VS MJF for the diamond ring, Cole VS MJF at Worlds End. A surprise move tonight was someone taking out Kamille backstage. With this and Anna Jay’s promo on Collision, it definitely has to be The Vendetta doing Mone’s dirty work while expecting payment for their “protection.” Anna and Kamille will fight Deonna and Taya, and then maybe someone out of that field faces Mone for the TBS Championship at Worlds End.

My Score: 8.7/10
