Tony Khan addresses the AEW fans!
“Hi. Thank you for joining us tonight, and welcome to AEW Wednesday Night Dynamite on TBS. Following All Out on PPV this past Sunday night, I have been forced to vacate the AEW World Championship, as well as the AEW World Trios Championships. New world trios champions will be crowned live tonight in our opening contest in a fight between two of the most storied trios in AEW’s history: Orange Cassidy & Best Friends VS The AEW All-Atlantic Champion, PAC, and the Lucha Brothers, the Death Triangle.
“The AEW World Championship is the single most prized title in all of combat sports, and it will be decided in the grandest way possible: The AEW Grand Slam Tournament of Champions. All the entries have been champions somewhere in their careers, and even some in AEW! Chris Jericho the SEVEN-TIME world champion and inaugural AEW World Champion, as well as three-time world champion, Jon Moxley, get byes into the semifinals.
The opening round features three-time TNT Champion, Sammy Guevara, taking on longest reigning TNT Champion, Darby Allin, this Friday for Rampage! And, SIX-TIME world champion Bryan Danielson taking on former AEW World and World Tag Team Champion, Hangman Page, here tonight!! The finals will happen in two weeks, September 21st, at Arthur Ashe Stadium for AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam 2022! Tony Khan promises us a great night of pro-wrestling, and that AEW will be at its very best these next few weeks. He thanks us again, and sends things back to commentary. Just how big will things get for AEW in the wake of All Out?
MJF is here!
Buffalo cheers their fellow New Yorker, and he shows his loyalty by wearing a Buffalo Bills Josh Allen jersey! MJF jogs right to the ring, does a bit of a CM Punk crowd lean, then gets in the ring to cut his music. “BUFFALO, NEW YORK! The Devil is back! Now listen up, Buffalo. First thing’s first. Who’s excited to see MJF? Lord knows I am, guys. I love Buffalo, New York. Hell, the greatest quarterback of all time, Josh Allen, is from Buffalo. Now, we’re gonna get down to brass tax a bit here, okay? Last time you guys saw me, I might’ve said some offensive stuff. I’m just being honest. But I think we can all agree…” Fans chant, “You Were Right!” MJF says he was just kidding then!
Everything he said was a joke! He loves AEW! He’ll never leave this place! He gets an “A E DUB!” chant going, and when MJF said the fans were all stupid marks, he didn’t mean it. Because without fans, there would be no MJF! How about a round of applause for yourselves? “Now, it’s about time. I have to address the big, fat, smelly elephant in the room, and no ma’am, I’m not talking about you. I’m just kidding, honey, we’ll meet up after the show. You’re gorgeous.” Fans cheer and MJF makes heart hands. Now, we know the world title has been vacated. Don’t boo! Hold on! There will be a tournament of champions to crown a new champion.
And if there’s one thing we can agree on, MJF knows one guy who deserves that championship. But MJF is working smart, not hard, so he is not gonna get in that tournament. Y’know why? Because he has a chip that guarantees him a championship match any damn time he wants! Fans cheer that. And also, Tony Khan is paying MJF a boatload o’ money~! Fans cheer that, too! Now, listen. Hear him out, guys. Hold on, he only has so much time allotted, shush. If there’s one thing MJF knows to be true, it’s that while you might think we’re in dark times, we’re not. What we need is leadership. And MJF cannot think of another person more trustworthy than MJF!
There was once a wise Jewish man, his name started with an M. When his people were meek, weak and needed help, that man split the sea wide open and walked them to the Promised Land. MJF isn’t telling you he’s Moses, that’d be ridiculous. HE’S BETTER THAN MOSES! Fans cheer for their new leader! MJF is gonna win the title because he is Maxwell Jacob Friedman, and he’s better than you, and you know it!! But wait! Here comes the previous champion, and one of the men in the tournament of champions, JON MOXLEY! Moxley enters from the audience side as always, and he gets a mic before getting in the ring.
Mox stares at MJF and fans cheer. “You… You are absolutely full of crap.” MJF says Jonathan thinks MJF isn’t being sincere in Buffalo, in front of all these grotesque, poor lard asses that have quite possibly the worst football team in the history of the United States of America? Off goes the jersey! And he wipes his butt with it! “Josh Allen SUCKS!” But Moxley may be a bit woozy after going to sleep on Sunday, but maybe he has a point. Maybe MJF doesn’t care about AEW. Maybe MJF doesn’t care about the people. And maybe, just maybe, MJF just looks at the world title as nothing more than a bargaining chip that he can use for the bidding war of 2024.
Maybe MJF takes that title with him to a real wrestling company, with real fans and real wrestlers like MJF’s friend and hero, the American Roller Code-ster, Cody Rhodes! Fans boo but MJF tells the “bums” to keep their mouths shut! Maybe, just maybe, MJF gets to work for a real boss, the only Khan in pro-wrestling that’s worth a damn, jolly old Saint Nick! “Because to quote the greatest wrestler of all time, and my personal hero, The Game… ‘That is what’s best for business.'” Mox slaps MJF’s mic down and then says, “This is not the time, and this is not the place. And I am in no mood. You need to leave this ring right now, or I will make you leave.”
Off comes the jacket and fans fire up! MJF unbuttons his shirt as Moxley rolls up his sleeves. Fans fire up for Moxley as MJF struggles with his shirt sleeve. MJF gets the shirt off now, but he just stands there. And then he bails out! Fans boo because MJF is still MJF. Moxley says MJF’s theme music sucks, too. Now, Buffalo, Mox is in no mood. Mox is pissed off, embarrassed, and angry about a great many things. None more so than that he is standing here without the AEW World Championship, the only material possession in the world that really matters to him. But the belt itself is leather and metal and you can buy one online. That belt doesn’t mean anything.
What means something is what the belt represents. It means something to Moxley and to a lot of people. “The AEW World Championship represents passion for this sport, passion for this business. It represents the passion of the guys and girls in the back, and the fans that fill the arenas and watch at home. Those three letters on the AEW World Championship, they represent the heroes during the pandemic, during a time when the world needed heroes. It represents the dream, the vision that we all had when we started this thing years ago. And we wanted to show the world just what wrestling could be!
“The AEW World Championship represents taking the dark and ugly side of this business and letting it die with another generation. The world championship represents the freedom to be as great as you are willing to dare to be! The AEW World Championship means being better than I was the day before. Even if it was just a little bit better, even if nobody notices but me. That world championship represents slaying demons, that world championship represents everything I love about this business!” Fans fire up and cheer Moxley on. Moxley says the fact remains, he lost. And that’s on him, that’s his fault, he made a mistake and got pinned.
Moxley missed the game winning shot. And he was supposed to be on vacation right now until about two days ago. But here’s another chance to take another shot when the game’s on the line. This tournament of champions is one hell of a shot, one hell of a big rock to push to the top of the hill again. Chris Jericho, the greatest of all time. Bryan Danielson, the best pure wrestler to ever step in the ring, a better pure wrestler than Moxley will ever be. Darby Allin, Hangman Page, Sammy Guevara, three dudes all younger than Moxley, faster than Moxley, more naturally gifted than Moxley could ever be. So yeah, that’s a hell of a shot.
But winners always want the ball when the game’s on the line. The ace always wants the ball. And Moxley wants the ball! So yeah, Moxley’s taking the shot. Because this isn’t just time to win, this isn’t just the fourth quarter, this is time to be a legend! The Maniac fires Buffalo up for this already exciting tournament! Will Moxley fight just as hard as he always has to get to the Grand Slam?
Vacated AEW World Trios Championships: Best Friends VS Death Triangle!
As epic as All Out was with the trios title tournament finale, it might as well have never happened. These two teams have scores to settle, and they get to do it with gold on the line!

As if there wasn’t already enough, we will see a rematch from All Out! The AEW World Tag Team Champions, Swerve In Our Glory, will defend the titles against The Acclaimed once more! Will that be the time Platinum Max & Anthony Bowens finally strike gold?
Backstage interview with The Dark Order.
Tony Schiavone stands with Evil Uno, Preston Vance, John Silver & Alex Reynolds as he notes that injuries kept them from competing for the vacated trios titles. Silver starts speaking, but then Jose the Assistant to La Faccion Ingobernable storms in! He tells everyone to shut up, and he tells Preston Vance that Andrade is making him one last offer. For whatever reason, El Idolo wants Vance to work for him, so here’s the contract. Uno tells Jose that maybe he didn’t understand what they were saying last week. The Dark Order is NOT for sale! Silver says Jose’s last name is “the assistant.” Get outta here!
But in walks Andrade and Rush. They don’t wanna speak with anyone but Vance. No, the only thing Andrade will be speaking to are Johnny’s fists! Rush gets fired up. Silver wants to fight? Yes, he’d love to! Andrade gets Rush to calm down and fall back for now. Will LFI not give up until they get what, and who, they want?
AEW shares footage from after All Out’s Women’s World Championship Fatal 4 Way.
Britt Baker tried to talk with Jamie Hayter, but Hayter wasn’t having it after the stunt Britt pulled. Hayter would’ve won the title, and Britt apologizes, but it doesn’t matter. Britt sulks away, did the Doctor just bust up the best friendship she had in AEW?
Interim AEW Women’s World Championship Eliminator: Toni Storm VS Penelope Ford w/ Kip Sabian!
Thunder Rosa got hurt, a Fatal 4 Way was held, and it was the Lightning From Down Under that struck! Gold, that is. But the new champion, interim though she may be, does not rest when there’s work to be done. Storm is going to be a fighting champion, but will she stay spotless while waiting for Rosa’s return? Or will Mrs. Superbad get herself a golden ticket tonight?

Mrs. Superbad put up a fight, but the Lightning From Down Under struck her down! Who will be next to step to Storm?
AEW hear from Matthew Menard & Angelo Parker, as well as Hook & Action Bronson.
On Sunday, in a competitive match, Hook won against Cool Hand Ange. They’ll give credit where it’s due, but then Hook also got his just desserts from Daddy Magic! Welcome to the real world, kid! But just as Menard & Parker were handling business, Action Bronson showed up? Bronson tells them to not try any of that coward stuff in their life with his guy. Well if Bronson wants to walk in all willy nilly into “OUR WORLD,” Daddy Magic don’t think so! Not that night, not any night! Bronson does not belong in wrestling!
Bronson says AEW is coming to Queens soon. That’s his backyard. Grand Slam, come see them! Hook may be crazy, but y’all don’t know ’bout Bronson. Menard says if Bronson wants to spit in their faces, he’ll get a taste! What will happen when the Jericho Appreciation Society throw down with the Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil and the man behind the song?
The Acclaimed is here!
Buffalo is so ready to “Yo! Listen!” “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” Oh, that wasn’t part of Max Caster’s plan. The AEW World Tag Team Champions interrupt already, and Swerve says he’s sorry. Were they all here to hear more stupid, corny rap jokes from The Acclaimed? “YES! YES! YES!” And they even call Swerve an A-Hole! Well, in that case, Swerve has a joke for them. The Acclaimed as AEW Tag Champions. HAHA! But for real- Billy Gunn cuts “Swervy Boy” off right there. See, he doesn’t know if the fans are listening, but this ain’t Swerve’s House no more! This is Daddy Ass’s House! Fans chant for “DADDY ASS! DADDY ASS!”
And Bowens says, because of all the fans, in two weeks, Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York City, it is The Acclaimed VS Swerve In Our Glory, round two! And the uncrowned champs are taking home the gold! Because EVERYONE loves the Acclaimed! Now scissor him, Daddy Ass!! Not quite a mic drop, but Swerve takes off his sunglasses. It was already an epic at All Out, will this time be even more insane between Swerve and the Acclaimed?
Backstage interview with The Jericho Appreciation Society.
Specifically, Schiavone is with Chris Jericho, Sammy Guevara, Tay Melo & Anna “Jay A S.” Schiavone says they’re celebrating Jericho’s big win on Sunday. Big? How about a GIGANTIC win over Bryan Danielson. And just look at him! Jericho’s better than ever. Here’s a history lesson: 400 years ago, Ponce De Leon went looking for the Fountain of Youth. He didn’t find it, but in 2022, Corazon De Leon, Lionheart Chris Jericho, found that fountain! He’s drinking it in, maaaan~! That’s why Jericho beat Bryan on Sunday at his own game. Jericho is now the Best Wrestler Ever, the Best Sports Entertainer Ever, the BWEE B’SEE!
What? B WEE! B SEE! Hashtag it, Tony! And that’s another reason why Jericho will beat Bryan again, next week on Dynamite to then go on to Grand Slam and become the world champion for the EIGHTH TIME! Because it is Jericho’s title! AEW is his company! And this is his EFFIN locker room! No one is ever taking that away from Jericho, ever!! EVER. And when it comes to the Jericho Appreciation Society, he’s got two little brothers. One is Spanish God Sammy, who takes on Darby Allin this Friday on Rampage in the Tournament of Champions. Sammy says that’s right! He tells Darby that on Rampage, “your little turtle lovin’ ass is getting beat!”
Jericho says the JAS doesn’t like turtles! And his other little brother is Danny Garcia, who is in the biggest match of his career, in his hometown of Buffalo, New York! He’s against Wheeler Yuta, but Jericho knows Garcia will win, because he believes in Garcia. But because Garcia decided to not join them on Sunday, the JAS leaves Garcia alone. Garcia will win, just without the JAS. Right, Sammy? Oh, sorry, he wasn’t paying attention. Look how sexy they all are! Even Jericho! Look at those abs! Is Jericho writing off Hangman Page already when the tournament’s not even begun? And is Garcia going to be able to do this all on his own?
AEW TNT Championship: Wardlow VS Tony Nese w/ Mark Sterling!
The War Dog won alongside his brothers in arms, FTR, against Jay Lethal and the Motor City Machine Guns. But now he sets out on his own again, ready to powerbomb anyone and everyone who’s coming for his gold. Will the Premier Athlete be able to survive the symphony? Or will Wardlow give Nese a powerbomb for every one of his eight abs?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and this is WAR!
Fans chant for “WARD~LOW! WARD~LOW!” but Nese flexes on him. Nese mocks Wardlow’s lesser abs and jigglier pecks, but Wardlow HEADBUTTS Nese with a harder head! And then gives him the wind-up LARIAT! The straps come down, and Wardlow drags Nese up and reels him in! Fans fire up for the POWERBOMB! Sterling is stunned but that’s just the first verse! Fans fire up for it, “ONE MORE TIME!” and Wardlow gives Nese the SECOND! And then right into the THIRD! Cover, Wardlow wins!
Winner: Wardlow, by pinfall (still AEW TNT Champion)
But wait! Wardlow wants to give an encore to the encore! Sterling gets up on the apron, but Wardlow TOSSES Sterling into the ring! Sterling flounders and begs for mercy! Josh Woods appears and he drags Sterling out of the ring to save him! Wardlow gets a mic to say, “I’ve been hearing a lot on the internet, that Wardlow’s lost it! That the momentum’s gone! Wardlow, he should do this, he should do that. Well let me tell you something! Wardlow is the TNT Champion, and it’s time for me to remind everybody in that locker room, everybody in this business, and all of my fans that have stuck by me since day one, that this is WARDLOW’S WORLD!!”
The War Dog is fired up and ready! Who will step up to him and see whether or not Wardlow’s lost a step?
Darby Allin speaks.
“Ever since we both started in this company, we’ve been competing against each other. Darby wins the TNT Championship, Sammy wins the TNT Championship. Darby does something crazy, Sammy does something crazy. But the one thing we haven’t done is become the AEW World Champion. At one time, I would’ve considered you a friend, but now, I don’t think anybody respects you.” Darby says he won’t even have Sting be ringside. If Sammy wants to win the world title fair, then he needs to prove he doesn’t need anyone else, either. Will the Spanish God accept the Relentless One’s challenge to do this truly 1v1?
Grand Slam Tournament of Champions, Opening Round: Hangman Page VS Bryan Danielson!
The Cowboy fought hard alongside Silver & Reynolds, but they lost out on the AEW Trios Championships. The American Dragon fought hard against Lionheart Chris Jericho, but lost because of a low blow. Both men want redemption on top of another world championship run, but only one can move on! Who faces The Wizard of AEW in the semifinals?
The vacated belt is on display, so both men get a good look at it as they make their entrances. The bell rings and fans rally up as the two stare down. Buffalo wants “COWBOY SH*T!” but Hangman offers a handshake. Bryan dismisses him, so the two circle. They tie up, Bryan headlocks, but Hangman endures and powers out. Bryan rams shoulders but Hangman stays up. Bryan sighs and they circle again. Bryan calls for the knuckle lock and Hangman obliges. They have a test of strength and are in a deadlock at the center of the ring. Hangman powers Bryan down to his knees, but Bryan fights back up and rolls back.
Bryan reverses the wrench on Hangman, then breaks one knuckle lock to get a wristlock. Hangman rolls, reverses it back and wrenches Bryan now. Bryan rolls, hooks a leg and even gets a chinbar. Hangman slips through to that to wrench Bryan again. Bryan pushes Hangman to a corner, the ref calls the ropebreak and counts, Bryan lets off with a hard pat on the shoulder. Hangman storms up on Bryan and Bryan backs away to bail out of the ring. Fans rally and duel while Bryan cools things off. Hangman stays calm and patient as Bryan takes his time returning. They reset, feel things out, and tie up again.
Bryan headlocks, Hangman endures and powers out. They ram shoulders again but neither falls, so Hangman CHOPS Bryan! Hangman eggs Bryan on so Bryan CHOPS! Hangman CHOPS, Bryan is stinging! But then he picks a leg, turns Hangman over, and hooks the legs up! Bryan grabs the arms, and he then STOMPS the knees! Hangman crawls to a corner but Bryan is on him with CHOPS! And KICKS! CHOP! But Hangman turns it around to CHOP back! And forearm! And CHOP again! Bryan staggers away but he comes back with a CHOP! And a CHOP! And a KICK, KICK, KICK! Hangman sits down but Bryan drags him up to wrench the arm.
Bryan whips corner to corner but Hangman reverses. Hangman runs in but into a BOOT! Bryan goes up, but Hangman DECKS him off the top! Bryan ends up on the apron, Hangman triangle jump LARIATS! Fans fire up as Bryan flops to the floor! Hangman takes a moment to take aim, PLANCHA! But Bryan dodges, hammerlocks the arm and POSTS it! Hangman falls, clutching his shoulder, and AEW goes to break!
AEW returns and Bryan isolates Hangman’s arm to STOMP it! Hangman clutches the elbow but Bryan drags him up to top wristlock and arm-drag Hangman down. Bryan isolates the arm again, to stomp it again! Hangman shakes out the arm but Bryan KICKS him in the back! Hangman writhes but Bryan drags him around to wrench the bad arm. Bryan CHOPS Hangman to a corner, but Hangman CHOPS back! Bryan CHOPS, Hangman CHOPS! But that’s Hangman’s bad arm! Bryan KICKS the bad arm, KICKS him to the corner, then KICKS him more! Bryan whips, Hangman reverses, but Bryan goes up and over.
Bryan keeps moving, he ducks ‘n dodges, but runs into a scoop! FALL AWAY SLAM! Even with one good arm, Bryan is sent tumbling out of the ring! Hangman fires up and fans rally behind him as he kips up! Hangman aims again, PLANCHA! Direct hit this time and down goes Bryan! Hangman drags Bryan up and puts him in the ring, and Bryan goes to a corner. Hangman gets in, runs corner to corner, and he clotheslines! But that’s still the bad arm! Bryan swings, but Hangman spins him and fireman’s carries, DEATH VALLEY DRIVER! Cover, TWO! Bryan survives, showing the toughness of a six-time world champion!
Fans rally up and duel as both men sit up. Hangman shakes out his arm while Bryan checks his legs. Hangman drags Bryan up to Alabama Lift, but Bryan sunset flips it! High stack, TWO! Bryan is in a corner, Hangman runs in, but Bryan drop toeholds him into buckles! Bryan KICKS Hangman, runs corner to corner and DROPKICKS him! Bryan keeps moving, another DROPKICK! And then Bryan runs again, into a POP-UP- NO, Bryan RANAS the bomb away! BUZZSAW! Cover, TWO! Hangman survives, showing the toughness of a world champion in his own right. Jericho is watching backstage, happy to see Bryan struggling.
Bryan stands up and he waits on Hangman to sit up. Hangman does sit up, and Bryan KICKS him! And KICKS him! And KICKS him! BUZZSAW again! Fans fire up as Bryan goes up the corner! But Hangman trips him up! Hangman throws forearms, Bryan throws them back, but Hangman CHOPS! Bryan throws another forearm but Hangman fires off! Hangman climbs up after Bryan now, brings him up and scoops, SUPER FALL AWAY SLAM!! Cover, TWO!! Hangman just goes right to the apron! He takes aim at Bryan, but Bryan bails out the far side! Bryan knew better, and fans cheer as AEW goes picture in picture.
Hangman is frustrated, but he goes after Bryan on the far side. Hangman drags Bryan up, and whips him into railing! Bryan takes a seat in the corner, and Hangman gets some space. Hangman fires up and runs in, to BOOT Bryan down! Fans fire up and Hangman refreshes the ring count. Hangman brings Bryan back up, puts him back in the ring, and has him on the apron to CHOP!

But Bryan EuroUppers again and again, only for Hangman to catch Bryan into a backslide! TWO, and Bryan GERMAN SUPLEXES! Hangman lands on his feet! POP-UP SIT-OUT POWERBOMB!! Cover, TWO!! Bryan survives and fans chant “This is Awesome!” as the standing count starts. Hangman sits up first but Bryan crawls to a corner. Bryan drags himself up the ropes but Hangman stands at 4.
Hangman CHOPS Bryan again! And hoists him up top again. Hangman CHOPS again, but that arm is bugging him. Hangman climbs up to the very top, but Bryan slips out! Bryan trips Hangman up, puts him in a Tree of Woe, and fires off KICK after KICK! Bryan runs corner to corner to SLIDING DROPKICK! Then he sits Hangman up out of the Tree, goes up behind him, and rains down HAMMER ‘N’ ANVIL ELBOWS! Bryan then stands Hangman up, for a SUPER BACK SUPLEX! Hangman lands on his feet?!? ROLLING- NO, Bryan boots it, only for the SOUTHPAW! Cover, TWO!! Bryan survives, and he gets Hangman’s arm!
Bryan has the omoplata and the LEBELL LOCK!! Hangman endures and fans are thunderous! Hangman moves around, reaches out blindly with Bryan’s wrists in his face, and powers out! Hangman has the legs and he CATAPULTS Bryan out! Bryan skins the cat to get back in! Hangman swings, into a underhook! BUTTERFLY SUPLEXÂ into the ARMBAR! Hangman hurries to move around but Bryan just uses that to omoplata and LEBELL LOCK!! Hangman is caught again! Bryan smothers Hangman, pulls him back, but Hangman fights with his legs! Hangman powers through the hold, and he RAMS knees into Bryan!
Fans are torn while both men are down again. Fans hope these guys “FIGHT FOREVER!” but this has to end somehow! These two have had a time limit draw before, will it happen again? Hangman brings Bryan up to LARIAT! But Bryan brushes that off and eggs Hangman on. Hangman LARIATS again! Bryan still stays up and he eggs Hangman on again. Then he swats the lariat to ROLLING ELBOW! But Hangman ROLLING ELBOWS! Bryan ROLLING ELBOWS! Then he ducks Hangman’s elbow, runs in, but into the DEADEYE!!! Cover, TWO!?!? Bryan survives and Hangman can’t believe it!
Fans are thunderous again as Hangman drags Bryan to a drop zone. Hangman goes to a corner, slowly climbs it, and MOONSAULTSÂ but FLOPS! Bryan runs in, BUSAIKU KNEE!!! But it sends Hangman into the corner! Hangman just tumbles out of the ring! Fans are torn again but Bryan just resets and builds speed! Bryan DIVES! But Hangman blocks it! APRON POWERBOMB!! Hangman goes up top, for the ARIHARA MOONSAULT!! Direct hit but Hangman puts Bryan in the ring! Hangman loads up, slingshots, BUCK- NO, Bryan gets around to O’Conner BRIDGE! BRYAN WINS!!!
Winner: Bryan Danielson, by pinfall (advances to the semifinals)
It seems Jericho’s prediction was right! The American Dragon finds a way to win, and now we get an All Out rematch next week! Will Jericho’s seven times beat Bryan’s six? Or will Bryan avenge his loss in Chicago?
“Jungle Boy” Jack Perry speaks.
“This was never really about a wrestling match. Christian Cage, the only thing that you’ve done is prolonged the inevitable. So go get your little surgery. And when you are back at 100%, I’m not just gonna beat you. I am going to take years of off your miserable life. And Luchasaurus, it’s funny that you used to carry me down to the ring on your shoulders. Because for three years, I carried your entire career on my back! I busted my ass week in and week out to make us champions, when everyone said you were a liability and a joke. And maybe they were right. Maybe what really happened to me at All Out was that a giant anchor was released from around my ankles.
“Sometimes, you can move on from your past. And sometimes, you have to destroy it.” Will Jack Perry make Luchasaurus pay for the sins of Captain Charisma? And when will Christian return to face the consequences of his actions?
AEW returns with Stokely Hathaway and associates on stage.
Lee Moriarty, Ethan Page, W. Morrissey and the Gunn Sons, Austin & Colten, stand with Stokely as he has the mic. “I know, I know, I know. Everyone wants an explanation from ‘the king of ladder matches,’ Stokely Hathaway about what I did at All Out.” He’ll give it to us. All Out was the greatest moment of his career! But wait, staff is telling Stokely to cut, they need to get to the main event. Stokely laughs as he yanks the staff member into the shot. This guy right here is saying they’re low on time and to wrap it up, like Stokely doesn’t work here or something. That’s funny. LISTEN! When Stokely has the mic, you give him the same respect you would your own father! Got it? Good.
Then Stokely DECKS the poor guy! And the Gunn Sons mug him! Ethan talks trash on the staffer, Lee mocks him, and then Ethan DECKS the guy, too! Fans call them all A-Holes, but they don’t care! The Gunn Clubs set the staffer guy up for Morrissey to BOOT down the ramp!! Security rushes out, but will Stokely Hathaway and his minions do what they want when they want?
AEW hears from Claudio Castagnoli and Dax Harwood.
The Swiss Superman says the ROH World Championship has always been a workhorse championship. It is defended everywhere around the world, it doesn’t matter. And this time, it means everything. Dax the Ax knows he comes in as the underdog, he’s “just a tag team guy.” But Dax fights every night with his heart, his soul and for his family. Because if Dax loses, that’s Claudio taking money outta the Harwood family bank account, and Dax can’t have that. Claudio hopes Dax is ready, will this one burn down the house on Rampage?
ROH Pure Championship: Wheeler Yuta VS Daniel Garcia!
This match happened before, but it was in the Dark so did it really even happen? But that doesn’t take away from how big this match here is tonight! The Decoder won the previous time, will he have the formula to repeat history? Or will the Dragonslayer make Buffalo proud with a hometown victory?
As part of Garcia’s entrance, he has Westside Gun live and in person to throw out some Peace “Fly” God! Buffalo fires up for both WSG and Danny G, then Bobby Cruise makes the introductions. The title is raised, and in this newest battle of BCC VS JAS, we see if a pro-wrestler or a sports entertainer brings this title home!
The judges for this match are Matt Sydal, BJ Whitmer and Jerry Lynn. The Code of Honor is NOT upheld as these two are heated rivals, but fans are thunderous at the bell. Yuta and Garcia tie up and are in a deadlock. They go around, Garcia headlocks but Yuta powers out. Garcia runs Yuta over and then struts a bit. Fans fire up and Garcia waits on Yuta. They go again, Yuta gets a leg and trips Garcia to have a toehold. Fans boo which surprises Yuta, but Garcia chinbars and drags Yuta down to then rear mount! Fans cheer as Garcia eggs Yuta on. Yuta gets up, gets in Garcia’s face and pushes him to a corner.
Garcia pushes back, things get chippy, but they reset. Fans are thunderous for Garcia, he ties up with Yuta and they’re in a deadlock. Yuta puts Garcia in a corner, Garcia puts Yuta in the other corner, but then they go to another corner. They go back to center, the collar ‘n’ elbow is tight, and then they go to ropes and tumble out! Both men get up in a huff and stare down, but they remember the no head strikes rule. The ref tells them to get back in the ring, and they both slide in fast. Fans fire up as this continues and AEW goes picture in picture.
Garcia and Yuta feel out knuckle locks, have a test of strength, and they’re in another deadlock. Garcia starts pushing Yuta back, but he bridges, rises up, and trips Garcia! Knuckle lock cover, TWO as Garcia get an arm up! Yuta puts that down, TWO as the other arm comes up. Yuta shifts to a cording hold and he grinds the arm. Garcia endures, powers Yuta to ropes, but Yuta cranks the arm to hold onto the hold! Garcia fights up to his feet, but Yuta passes him through to wrench back into the cording hold! Garcia still endures, whips Yuta into ropes, and then he holds on! That’s Garcia’s first ropebreak, he has two left.
Yuta lets off slowly, but Garcia uses that to hip toss Yuta up and out of the ring! Yuta tumbles to the floor and fans cheer Garcia. Garcia waits on Yuta, then opens the ropes for him. Yuta goes under, so Garcia stomps away on him! The ref counts, Garcia lets off at 4, and he fires back up. Garcia stands Yuta up to CHOP him! Yuta CHOPS back! Garcia CHOPS! Yuta is stinging but he CHOPS back! Garcia CHOPS, Yuta CHOPS, repeat! Garcia kicks low, snapmares, then PENALTY KCIKS Yuta in the back! Garcia tallies a point for himself then covers, TWO! AEW returns to single picture as Garcia kicks Yuta around.
Garcia runs the ropes, but Yuta ducks the kick! Yuta hits an atomic drop, then ENZIGURIS Garcia to a corner! Yuta runs in to A-LIST LARIAT! Yuta then climbs to FLYING FOREARM! Cover, TWO! Fans rally for Garcia as he checks his teeth. Yuta kicks Garcia around now and fans boo. Garcia is annoyed, Yuta kicks him again, and the CHOPS return! They CHOP and CHOP, but Yuta kicks and snap suplexes! Yuta digs his knee into Garcia then covers, TWO! Yuta stomps Garcia, wrenches his arm and grinds the shoulder but Garcia fights up. Garcia whips Yuta away but Yuta KICKS him! Garcia and Yuta just glare at each other now!
Garcia choke grips, Yuta breaks that, but Garcia SLAPS Yuta! Then Garcia SAIDOS! Yuta goes to a corner, Garcia runs in and clotheslines! Then SAIDOS again! And a LAIRAT! Deep stack, TWO!! Garcia drags Yuta around, has the legs, steps through, but Yuta turns that to a cradle! TWO, Garcia BOOTS Yuta, but Yuta rewinds and shoots around, GERMAN SUPLEX! Yuta holds on, he drags Garcia back up, and GERMAN SUPLEXES again! Garcia clubs at the hands but can’t get free before the GERMAN SUPLEX! Yuta is turning Buffalo into Suplex City as he drags Garcia up again! Fans rally for Garcia and he hooks Yuta’s leg to block!
Garcia standing switches to GERMAN SUPLEX Yuta now! Garcia holds on, and he GERMAN SUPLEXES again! Garcia drags Yuta up and GERMAN SUPLEXES again! Each man has hit three, Garcia wants a fourth! But Yuta resists, switches, and GERMAN SUPLEXES! Fans boo as Yuta still has the waistlock! GERMAN SUPLEX! But Garcia switches back to GERMAN SUPLEX again! And GERMAN SUPLEX again! Both men have five, will Garcia go for his sixth? Yuta and Garcia switch and switch and switch, Garcia shoves Yuta but Yuta elbows him away! Yuta goes up but Garcia CHOPS his back! Garcia goes up top, to SUPER GERMAN SUPLEX!!
Fans are thunderous while both men are down, and AEW goes picture in picture! The standing count starts, and it climbs to 5 of 10 before either man sits up. Garcia and Yuta get to ropes, drag themselves up at 7, and then Yuta flops to the apron. Garcia goes out to the apron, too, and they meet at the corner. They glare at each other through the ropes, and Yuta junkyard dog headbutts Garcia! And again! Yuta stands, he drags Garcia up and tears off a crossbar cover. Yuta stands on Garcia’s head ON the crossbar!! The ref reprimands, Yuta lets off and raises his hands. Fans surely boo but he soaks up the heat.
Yuta drags Garcia through the ropes, undoes another crossbar cover, and then stands Garcia up. But Garcia YANKS Yuta into the crossbars! Yuta clutches his ribs and Garcia climbs up! Garcia stands on Yuta’s head on the crossbar! The ref counts, Garcia lets off, and then he shifts position. Garcia drags Yuta up the corner, then to the top. Yuta throws body shots but Garcia gives them back! They brawl, Garcia brings Yuta to the very top, and hits a JUMPING SUPERPLEX!! Both men are down as AEW returns to single picture! The standing count is back and the fans rally up! We’re past 5 of 10 again before either stirs.
Yuta and Garcia push up off the mat and get forehead to forehead. Yuta SLAPS Garcia, but Garcia fires a flurry of palm strikes! Yuta SLAPs, Garcia fires another flurry, and now they’re both swinging palm strikes! It’s fast ‘n’ furious and fans are loving this! They stand up, and they SLAP SLAP SLAP all at the same time! Garcia dodges to DECK Yuta! Yuta is down and the standing count is back! Fans are thunderous for Garcia but Yuta sits up at 5 of 10. He still isn’t up, we’re at 8! Yuta flounders up so Garcia trips him! Garcia steps through, DRAGONTAMER!! Jericho is watching backstage and cheering Garcia on!
Yuta crawls, reaches out, Garcia sits deep but Yuta gets the ROPEBREAK! That’s just Yuta’s first and Garcia lets off in frustration. Yuta stands, and he DECKS Garcia with a haymaker! That is Yuta’s warning for using a closed fist! Yuta snarls and he drags Garcia up by his ears! But Garcia leg scissors Yuta down, ties the legs up again, DRAGONTAMER!!! And it’s deeeeeep! Yuta endures, grabs Garcia around the head and has a CROSSFACE! But Garcia fights up and moves around! But Yuta shifts through, SEATBELLT! TWO!!! Garcia escapes but Yuta is on him! Yuta steps through, but Garcia boots him down!
Garcia stands into the DRAGONTAMER!!! And it’s DEEEEP!! Yuta grabs Garcia in a CHANCERY! DUELING SUBMISSIONS!!! But Garcia pumps his hips, and Yuta TAPS!! Garcia wins!!!
Winner: Daniel Garcia, by submission (NEW ROH Pure Champion)
Buffalo explodes because they finally have a champion to get behind! Red ‘n’ black confetti flies as Garcia celebrates his win on his own! But wait! Bryan Danielson walks out now. Is he here to talk with Garcia or with Yuta? Yuta has Bryan stay back, so that he can shake Garcia’s hand! The Code of Honor is upheld and fans love it, but then Bryan snatches the belt from Garcia? Bryan wags his finger, and helps him put it on around his waist! An even bigger show of respect from The American Dragon to the Dragonslayer, but here comes Jericho! Jericho looks stunned! Is he losing Garcia to the pro-wrestling side? Will he take this out on Bryan in their rematch next week?
My Thoughts:
A great episode of AEW here, not just to follow up All Out but to adjust from the craziness that happened after the PPV. I’m not going to worry about explaining what went down with CM Punk and The Elite, but it is clear that the first punishment is they’re all stripped of the titles they won at All Out. The other seems to be suspensions, as there was no sign of The Elite or Punk around tonight at all. At the same time, Punk is injured again (mishap during a tope suicida at All Out), so he was vacating his title and missing time anyway. But we got a great way to keep things going, such as putting the AEW Trios Championships onto the Best Friends VS Death Triangle match. It was a great match, and I’m surprised Death Triangle won. I think this makes Pac the first dual champion in AEW.
Great move with this tournament of former champions, too. We already got an awesome match out of Bryan and Hangman, but between Jericho’s promo and the feud between BCC and JAS, I should’ve known Bryan would win. The JAS also had good promos, both Jericho hyping up the tournament and also Menard & Parker calling out Hook and Action Bronson. Darby had a very good promo reviewing his rivalry with Sammy Guevara, and their match is going to be awesome stuff for Rampage. Either guy could win because they’ll be facing Moxley, and will then have one hell of a match with Moxley in the semifinals.
Speaking of Moxley, we got great stuff out of him and MJF. I really liked MJF’s sarcastic promo where he made sure to check off all the Face clichés like shouting out the town and being inspirational. Moxley also had a very passionate promo to get us all back on AEW’s side, not worrying about Punk and his issues. MJF will of course challenge whoever wins the tournament in a couple weeks, but I can’t be sure how the finals sort out. Bryan VS Jericho probably goes Bryan’s way since Jericho won at All Out. But then is Moxley going to win against Sammy/Darby? Will we end up with BCC VS BCC, Bryan VS Moxley? That’d be pretty wild.
It was also a great move to have titles up and down the card. Wardlow of course beats Nese to retain the TNT title, and he had a great promo to tell the naysayers to eat their words. I hope Wardlow just goes on this insane streak of defenses, facing all sorts of big names in AEW as well as outside AEW. If things are done between Miro and the House of Black (Malakai Black was let go, but because he has both physical and mental health concerns), maybe we can get Redeemer VS Wardog. Or hell, throw Brody and Buddy at Wardlow to see what happens. We also got a good promo out of Dark Order and LFI to escalate their story, I would love to see Vance & Uno VS LFI.
Great promo from Swerve and Acclaimed as part of the announcement that they are having a tag title rematch. Given All Out’s match was awesome, this rematch is going to be badass. We got a good bit from Hayter and Britt from after All Out. I hope this means Hayter is breaking away from Britt. Being Britt’s sidekick has held Hayter back, especially in a promotion where there’s no women’s tag titles. Storm VS Ford was a great title eliminator match, but I figured Storm would win. Ford only just got back, she can’t just jump the line. Depending on how things with Hayter and Britt goes, I would love if we got a proper 1v1 of Storm and Hayter, no interference or distractions.
Good stuff out of Stokely and his stable, playing with the meta of being told to wrap for sake of TV time. They got some good heel heat beating up that rando, and I suppose we’ll have to wait and see how each of Stokely’s guys gets going in the different title hunts. Obviously Gunn Club/Ass Boys are the tag team, and perhaps W. Morrissey is the world title guy. I would think Ethan is the TNT Championship guy while Lee Moriarty is the All-Atlantic Championship guy, and then any combination of three can go for the trios titles. And then we got a good promo vignette from Claudio and Dax, that is going to be a great title match, but I would think Claudio retains.
And what an awesome ROH Pure Championship match for the main event. Great tie-in to the BCC VS JAS story, of course, and Buffalo was so red hot for Garcia, of course he had to win. Though, Garcia would’ve probably won even if this wasn’t in Buffalo, because it’s just the story of Garcia showing his “pro-wrestler” side. But it meant so much more that the fans were 111% behind him, so this was a great moment for Garcia. Bryan and Yuta showing Garcia respect while Jericho is stunned was a great closing moment, too. This also adds to how Bryan probably wins next week, because Jericho is again going to have a faction falling apart around him.
My Score: 9/10

Then you’re what’s holding him back. But I’m gonna fix that.”
Perry shoves Menard aside, then goes into the bus. Perry brings out a tow chain, with a hook on it! Perry CLUBS Menard, then hooks him up to the back of the bus! Between the chain and the bus exhaust, Menard is coughing and sputtering. Perry tells Menard, “We all have to sacrifice.” Perry then goes into the bus, but Garcia runs up! Garcia fires off on Perry, throws him into the side of the bus, “You thought this was a game?!” Garcia stomps Perry, and he frees Menard from the chain. Garcia stands Perry up abut Menard has an idea. Menard takes the camera, but Collision goes to break. What hell will Garcia put Perry through a week before Full Gear?
Lio Rush speaks.
“I am sick and tired of feeling the way that I’ve been feeling lately. Lost and confused on where I stand with the people that surrounded me. It’s really hard to know exactly who you are when you lose the matches that mean the most. But then I take a deep breath, I look at my watch, and I remember that I’m the Man of the Hour. I came to AEW to collect titles. I’m a 30-year-old piece of gold, and I pray that the people I call friends get on the same page. Because it’s only a matter of time before Lio Rush is rushing to the top.”
Garcia has Perry tied to the hood of the bus!
Garcia shouts at Perry that he was waiting for a reason! Garcia and Menard get in the bus, and they take Perry for a ride! They go through guard rails, up a ramp, and perhaps even into town! Will the Scapegoat end up a bug on a windshield?

Backstage interview with Kris Statlander.
Renee Paquette is with the #BornAgainKristen and says that we’re just one week away from Kris VS Mercedes Mone for the TBS Championship at Full Gear. Things have already gotten out of control, from Mone & Kamille trying to run Kris over with a car, and then Kris tackles them through a wall. Once the bell rings, what can we expect? Kris says, “Anything and everything.” Mone is one of the best, will do anything she can to win, and is most dangerous when she’s cornered, where she is right now. Everything she’s tried hasn’t worked because Kris is still standing. Kris will be the one standing tall as the NEW TBS Champion.
In steps Hikaru Shida with enthusiastic applause. The Shining Samurai tells Kris that she just wants to wish her luck. It’s about time someone beats Mone’s boney ass! And when Kris becomes the new champion, Shida will gladly be her first challenger. Kris says alright, sure. But here’s another idea: Kris is always open for a challenge any time, especially against #HolyShida, the only THREE-TIME AEW Women’s World Champion. So how about this? Wednesday Night Dynamite, Shida VS Kris. Shida’s all for it! They shake hands, but will fighting Shida be a little too much before going to Full Gear? Or will it prove Kris is still The Galaxy’s Greatest?
Backstage interview with The Acclaimed.
Lexy Nair is with Max Caster & Anthony Bowens ahead of their huge Full Gear Tag Team Contenders Series match with La Faccion Ingobernable. But where is Billy Gunn? Caster asks that more importantly, where are their heads going into the match? Because Caster just has to say, as the Best Wrestler Alive, he’s feeling real confident. Bowens says for Lexy’s actual question, Billy will be here. What Caster was trying to say is that The Acclaimed do feel great, because they are one match away from joining that Fatal 4, where they will become TWO-TIME AEW World Tag Team Champions in the Scissor King’s home state of New Jersey!
And when they win, The Acclaimed will celebrate with one big scissoring, because EVERYONE LOVES THE ACCLAIMED! Ain’t that right, Lexy? Oh, wait, MVP steps in, Shelton Benjamin by his side. The Hurt Syndicate just wants to wish The Acclaimed luck. The Syndicate handled their business, so Caster & Bownes should handle theirs. Oh, and Max, use your size and strength. This is a big opportunity, don’t blow it. The Syndicate heads out, but will The Acclaimed win to impress MVP? Or to get back where they belong?

The return of the Powerhouse is truly big for AEW, but all the Iron Savages are big. And Jacked Jameson wants everyone to hold on. The fat morons and skinny idiots of Albany can shut up.

But here’s some news: all these losers are going on a vegan diet! There will be no meat tonight! Because they are The Iron Savages, sippin’ sauce and livin’ hoss while they take all the Low T Meatriders to #TIDDYCITY! Guess Bronson can do it, too?

Lexy is now with Roderick Strong, Matt Taven & Mike Bennett. She congratulates Roddy for getting his third win via Lance Archer. Roddy now faces MJF at Full Gear, so how is he feeling? How’s he feeling? First, thanks for all that, Lexy, he appreciates it. Second, “MAAAX! You have seven days. Seven days from right now until you’re standing across the ring from me, Max. And look, I got a lot to say, and on Wednesday, you’re gonna hear it all, but I just wanna leave you with this: Max, you walk around here thinking you’re smarter than everybody, you’re better than everybody. I don’t think you realize what you’ve gotten yourself into.
“I am the Messiah of the Backbreaker. I am a damn wrestling legend! And when Full Gear ends, you’re gonna realize that I’m better than you, and you know it!” Roddy is ready to throw it all back in MJF’s face, but will the Wolf of Wrestling have a contingency plan?
Private Party is here!
The MVP Arena is ready to party with the champs, and Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy are ready to watch the final match of the contenders’ series! Who joins Private Party, The Outrunners, and The Kings of the Black Throne at Full Gear?
Full Gear Tag Team Contenders Series: Rush & The Beast Mortos w/ Jake “The Snake” Roberts VS The Acclaimed w/ Billy Gunn!
Platinum Max of course has a diss track. “These dudes gotta be embarrassed. You ’bout to lose bigger than Kamala Harris! LFI in a title match is outta place. It’s like Mexicans being managed by Jake the Snake! I would’ve called the committee, but you’re lucky Albany’s a sanctuary city!” Bowens takes over to say, “ALBANAAAAAY~! The Acclaimed have arrived! Scissor me, Daddy Ass~!” And he does~! But Caster doesn’t? The teams sort out, and while Caster wants to, Bowens convinces him to let Bowens start.

PROGRAMMING NOTE for next week!
With Full Gear being next Saturday, November 23rd, Collision takes a week off! We’ll see everyone back here in two weeks on November 30th!
Backstage interview with Mina Shirakawa.
Lexy is with the Fighting Gravure Idol and congratulates her on her win in her return. Mina says yes, she is so back to have come back here, and she is so excited for Mariah’s match. Lexy says Mina already has multiple championships, is AEW gold on her mind at all? Mina says she’s just excited for Mariah’s match. But that’s not a no… Time to dance! Mina shimmies her way on out, but will she end up wanting something more than just fun with her friend?
Backstage interview with The Conglomeration.
Lexy is now with Mark Briscoe, Rocky Romero & Tomohiro Ishii, and she notes that in a couple weeks, Dynamite: Thanksgiving Eve, it will be Tomohiro Ishii VS Chris Jericho for the ROH World Championship. How is Ishii feeling? The Stone Pitbull is stone-faced, so Mark Briscoe “translates” what #BigTom is exuding with his aura. This is what he’s trying to say: Jericho, your days are numbered! You better shine that title up real nice, sleep with it real close, because soon, it’s getting up outta there! “Learning Tree my ass, you about to learn a lesson about humility! You about to learn a lesson about gettin’ your ass whooped!”
Mark asks if they understand what he’s saying, and Rocky says yeah, he’s picking up what Mark’s putting down. Rocky’s digging the energy, and he feels the intensity. But he has to know one thing: What is the word of the day? That’s a hell of a question, Rocky, because today, it is a menagerie of words! Take a basket, reach in, pull out the word of the day, and well, it’s tenacious! Tenacity! Ferocious! Velocity! Ferocity! He’s tellin’ ya, long story short, that title is coming back to the Conglomeration, courtesy of Tomohiro Ishii! Jericho, you gettin’ your ass whooped, son! RARARARA!
Mark may be fire on the outside, but Ishii is fire on the inside. Will The Learning Tree be burned down either way?
Backstage interview with FTR.
Lexy notes that this past Wednesday, Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood came up short in their own Full Gear Contenders Series match. Where are their heads out right now? Cash says he wishes he had an answer, because he doesn’t really know. FTR doesn’t know where they go from here. They wish it was just one bad night, but the truth of the matter is, FTR lost those titles a little over a year ago and have had chances to get them back where they just haven’t. Maybe it’s FTR. Maybe their time has passed them. Maybe they need to reevaluate. Dax agrees. But on Dynamite, the better team won on that night.
While FTR could cry about it, or they could rebuild. Therefore, they will rebuild. This may not be FTR’s time, but it is someone’s time. It is The Outrunners’ time! And maybe after Full Gear, we get an FTRunners dream match for those titles. Boys, they’re pulling for you. Speaking of, we’re about to hear from The Outrunners right now!
The Outrunners speak.
Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd have another retro style video in old standard definition, saying they’ve got the looks and the attitude, so you know they’ve got “the stuff!” It’s a highlight reel of their match with Top Flight, even using retro graphics in the editing. You gotta have the meat! And right now, they’re sizzling! But will Truth & Turbo be prime A1 material at Full Gear? Or will they end up well done?
AEW Women’s World Championship No Disqualifications Match: Mariah May VS Anna Jay!
The Battle of the Belts was a Title Eliminator that went The Queenslayer’s way, only for The Glamour to get her revenge in the proper title match. However, all the back and forth, the bullying and the brawling, it has led to this rubber match! And as if No Disqualifications isn’t raising the stakes enough, Anna promises that if she loses, this is the last time she challenges Mariah for the title! Will this last chance be just the chance Anna needs to become The Star of the Show? Or will AEW still be All About Mariah?
Anna already brings a duffel bag of weaponry, and Nigel panics for Mariah’s sake. But Mariah came prepared with a trash can, baseball bat, and proper attire for a Street Fight.

Mariah climbs, Anna stands, and Mariah MISSILE DROPKICKS Anna down! Cover, TWO! Anna survives but Mariah just goes outside to look under the ring. The fans fire up in anticipation, and Mariah grins as she brings out a LADDER! Mariah pushes that ladder into the ring, stomps Anna around, then drags the ladder up. The ladder is propped up in a corner, then whips Anna, but Anna reverses! Mariah avoids hitting the ladder, but Anna has the QUEENSLAYER SLEEPER! Mariah flails, reaches out, but Anna hops on as a backpack! Only for Mariah to SENTON onto the ladder!
The fans fire up while both women are down, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Mariah sputters and coughs while she crawls to ropes. Mariah rolls out of the ring and hurries to look under the ring again. Mariah brings out a new chair, but Anna has brought out one of her own! They each slide the chairs in, and then they add more chairs! And more chairs! So many chairs! They both storm in, armed with chairs, and they CLASH! Mariah is disarmed, so Anna SMACKS her down! Anna goes for her duffel bag! Anna brings out… a crowbar, a wrench, wire, a chain, but she wants the PRYBAR! Mariah ROCKS Anna first, then THRWOS her down onto the chairs! Mariah stomps Anna, then sees all the goodies Anna brought!

Best friends get to celebrate Mariah’s victory, and then Mariah KICKS ANna in the side! Mina says no, Mariah, you already did enough! Mariah accepts that, and BREAKING NEWS from Tony Khan: Now that Mariah has retained her title, she and Mina will have their championship champagne celebration for Full Gear! Will no one ever stop Mariah’s reign of glamour?
Jon Moxley speaks.
The Maniac is with Marina Shafir in the parking lot as he says, “I’ve underestimated Orange Cassidy. I’ve pushed him in the ring before, but this sport’s about so much more than what goes on between the ropes. I thought when I broke Chuck Taylor’s neck, one of two things would happen: Either he would turn into a shaky puddle of tears, and I’d walk right over him; or he’d be backed into a corner and he’s snap back, bringing the animal out of Orange Cassidy. Neither of those two things happened, and now I see it for the first time. I don’t think he even went to the hospital with Chuck Taylor.
“He acts like he’s so sad, and that young Wheeler’s traveled down a path he doesn’t approve of, but he doesn’t care. He’s full of it. Now I see it for the first time. I can’t believe I didn’t see it before. Orange Cassidy is a snake. Cold-blooded, reptilian, unnerved. The test will be this Wednesday, when you face your beloved former student who you claim to care about. Will you strike with venomous intent? Or will you keep it clean? Cold-blooded opponent, that is a different challenge entirely, this is gonna be harder than I thought. But man, I wish I was cold-blooded. But I’m not. No. I feel everything.
“Not just the weight of the AEW World Championship, but I feel the weight of the last five years. I feel the weight of the dreams and aspirations of every single wrestler who walks through these doors. I feel the weight of everybody’s mistakes and broken promises. I feel the weight of every single AEW fan who buys a ticket and pays for parking, and takes off work, and gives us their hard-earned money, and time, and energy, because AEW is something they believe in! What AEW could be! You don’t like the way I do things? November 23rd, you’re gonna have a chance.
“Lop my head off. Let it hit the dirt and roll at your feet. Reach down and pick up that crown, put it on your head. See if you like how it feels. At Full Gear, I smear Orange Cassidy’s blood on our flag, and I plant it in the ground so hard, it will never get moved. You wanna ride with me? You wanna ride in MY AEW? We ride into battle every single day to grab pro-wrestling by the balls, and you better be ready to die on your shield every single day! And if you’re not, get out. Or you will get taken out.” The Maniac has issued his ultimatum, will Freshly Squeezed heed it?
AEW Collision wraps with the November to Remember music video.
Set to November Rain by Guns ‘n’ Roses, we look back even as far as the last time Jon Moxley and Orange Cassidy feuded, which included their battle over the AEW International Championship at Full Gear 2023. There are also highlights to hype up the TNT Championship match of Jack Perry VS Daniel Garcia, and the long-awaited grudge match between Jay White and Hangman Page. Who will truly make this a November to Remember when they stand tall in the November rain?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision, and I forgot that this counts as the go-home Collision with Full Gear next week. The music video recap package to end the show is really well done, and makes a good ending moment, but then it makes other promos a little redundant. Honestly, why not wait to use this as the cold open to Full Gear next Saturday? This would be an awesome PPV opening video. And good closing promo from Moxley, with good spin on Cassidy’s aloof nature. Maybe Cassidy’s cold, or maybe he’s in control of his emotions. I suppose Cassidy VS Yuta on Dynamite will give some of that away.
Great stuff with the TNT Championship story. Garcia VS Johnny was a really good match, even with MXM getting involved. Perry abducting Menard in an attempt to tow him behind the bus was wild, but I like how Garcia turned the tables on Perry. I kinda wish we got a little more of their “joyride” through Albany and New York, but maybe we get more of that on Dynamite. Either way, it feels like Garcia already has the “standing tall” part of the go-home math, meaning he loses at Full Gear. Maybe Perry will cheat his way out of the match so that Garcia can still be strong in defeat.
Really good match from Shelton and Komander but of course Shelton won. Good promo from Hurt Syndicate with The Acclaimed to keep up the recruit tease, and very good match from Acclaimed VS LFI. Good win for The Acclaimed, and you can bet that the Fatal 4 Way will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. Caster was even distancing himself in his own way here, with not wanting to scissor finger before the match and other little details. Caster can turn on Bowens and join the Hurt Syndicate to start on a singles championship story with them. Lio Rush likely will, too, given his promo.
Very good promo from Conglomeration to hype up Thanksgiving Eve and the ROH World Championship match of Ishii VS Jericho. Still doesn’t feel like Jericho’s losing, though, as he really only just got the title and there’s still this idea of Jericho being responsible for ROH getting a TV deal. Y’know, the same way he’s kayfabe responsible for Collision happening so that he could be on another show separate from… Whoever he was feuding with back then. Very good promo from Roddy to call out MJF, though he literally says he’ll talk more on Dynamite so what was the point of tonight? Just filling time?
Great match for Hobbs to get back on a winning track in singles action, and the “All Star 8 Man” on Wednesday will be great stuff. I feel like Brian Cage or Lance Archer takes the loss in that match, giving momentum to Ricochet and Ospreay going into each of the Full Gear grudge matches. With that, Ricochet maybe pulls off the International Championship win, but Ospreay probably does not win because of Don Callis Family cheating. As for Hobbs himself, The Continental Classic is coming, maybe he gets in on that and really dominates. Hobbs and Okada would be a lot of fun to see, I kinda hope we get that.
Great opener from Mina VS Harley as Harley continues to build her in-ring skill and impress. I like Mina kinda dodging the question about titles here in AEW, because she doesn’t wanna give away that she wants THE AEW Women’s World Championship. Mariah VS Anna was a great main event, they really busted out some good stuff. Mariah using the hair spray was a very clever way to turn things around and help her win. Mariah and Mina having their celebration on Full Gear, I feel like that’s the moment things go sideways in this friendship.
My Score: 8.8/10

Hikaru Shida VS Leila Grey!
The Shining Samurai continues her comeback, looking to carve a path back to a championship. But the Top Flight Attendant only just called out the ROH Women’s World Champion, Athena, last night on ROH TV. Will Leila be flying high towards her Proving Grounds match with The Fallen Goddess? Or will Shida use Leila as just another tune-up?
The bell rings, the two circle, and the fans rally up. The two tie up, Leila wrenches and wristlocks to YANK the arm. Leila keeps on the wristlock but Shida handsprings and wrenches back. Shida hammerlocks, headlocks, but Leila fires body shots. Leila powers up and out, but Shida runs Leila over! The fans fire up, and things keep moving. Shida rolls over Leila’s dropdown, then bypasses Leila. Leila stops the hip toss to fire body shots and knees! Leila goes to run but Shida reels her in. Shida lifts with the waistlock, and she swings Leila around, before the SLAM! The fans fire up with Shida and she goes outside.
Shida brings Leila to the apron, CLUBS her, then lines up a shot. Shida runs in to KNEE LIFT! The fans fire up again and Shida hurries back in. Shida brings Leila up, fireman’s carries, but Leila flails with forearms and elbows. Leila sunset flips, TWO! Leila ROCKS Shida, UPPERCUTS, then kicks low. Leila KICKS high, then kicks a leg out, to run and SHOTGUN! Shida tumbles, Leila covers, TWO! Shida stays in this but Leila stays on her. Leila bumps Shida off buckles, then she runs Shida side to side to bump off more buckles. Leila CHOPS and the fans “WOO~!” Leila smiles and puts some stank on the CHOP!
Leila swings but Shida dodges the third chop, to ROCK Leila! Shida whips, Leila reverses, and Leila SHINING WIZARDS in the corner! Then BULLDOG! Cover, TWO! Shida is tougher than that but Leila stalks her. The fans rally up, Leila brings Shida around, and Leila fires a forearm! Shida fires one in return! Leila fires again, but Shida ROCKS Leila! Leila ROCKS Shida! The fans rally up and Shida feeds off the energy. Shida fires forearm after forearm, but Leila takes a swing! Shida dodges, wrenches, and short arm LARIATS! The fans fire up and Shida is after Leila in a corner. Shida climbs up, and she rains down fists!
The fans fire up and count all the way to TEN! Shida roars then kicks Leila away. Shida MISSILE DROPKICKS! Down goes Leila! Shida hurries to cover, TWO! Leila stays in this but Shida takes aim. KATA- NO, Leila deflects! Roll up, TWO!! Shida is up, blocks a boot, and swings, but into a full nelson! Shida wrenches out, BOOTS Leila’s lariat, then QUESTION MARK KICKS! Shida suplexes for the FALCON ARROW! Cover, Shida wins!
Winner: Hikaru Shida, by pinfall
Leila kicks at 3.1, that’s too little too late! Will Leila at least last ten minutes against Athena next week? Will Shida be the one poised for a title shot after Full Gear?
Backstage interview with Harley Cameron.
Renee Paquette is with the crazy Aussie, who keeps pawing at her, and brings up the match Harley’s made for Collision with Mina Shirakawa. Harley asks Renee, does she know what Mina has that Harley doesn’t? No, what is it? NOTHING!! Mina is beautiful, charismatic, and talented. But can she do THIS?! Harley brings out a guitar and starts to play! Harley was a musician, y’know. Oh, wait, there’s a string missing. Never mind, she’s professional! Harley starts adlibbing a Blues-esque song. There once was a little girl. And by “little,” Harley doesn’t mean young child, she means just small in stature.
Anyway, and a five, six, seven, eight! Renee stops Harley there, there’s no time. What?! No! FEEL THE WRATH OF HARLEY CAM- The cameras cut away back to ringside, but will Harley show Mina and the world everything she’s capable of tomorrow night on Collision?
Mark Briscoe VS Ariya Daivari w/ Mark Sterling!
While Chris Jericho keeps disrespecting the legacy of Jay Briscoe, it will be Tomohiro Ishii that handles him. Tonight, the Sussex County Chicken is to focus on himself and the Premier Athletes’ son of privilege. “Smart” Mark takes over introductions by saying Ariya Daivari is about to wrestle “literally the dumbest person in AEW.” Mark is so stupid, really. So please, show the world that Bridgeport is smarter than a Briscoe by reading what is right on the Premier Athletes’ brand new merch shirt: Athletes Rule. Daivari says when he says “Athletes,” the fans should say, “Rule!” and NOTHING ELSE! Got it!?
Okay, hands in. Ohhh… “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Briscoe laughs because the only dumb Mark here is Mark Sterling. But will Briscoe prove that what matters in the ring is street smarts? Or can Daivari prove that Premier Athletes don’t suck?
The bell rings and Briscoe circles with Daivari. They tie up as fans rally, and Briscoe pushes Daivari back. Daivari turns things around to put Briscoe in a corner, and lets off as the ref counts. Daivari shouts, “ATHLETES!” but fans again shout “SUCK!!” Briscoe SHOVES Daivari down and the fans fire up. Briscoe and Daivari circle, tie up, and Briscoe headlocks. Daivari powers up and out, but Briscoe runs him over! The fans fire up and things keep moving. Daivari drops down, Briscoe slides under, and then Briscoe REDNECK KUNG-FU UPPERCUTS! And ROLLING ELBOWS! The fans fire up more while sterling protests.
Briscoe whips Daivari, then UPPERCUTS again! The fans fire up as Daivari goes to a corner. Briscoe storms up to bring Daivari around, for a suplex high and hard! Cover, TWO! Daivari is tougher than that so Briscoe shrugs it off. Briscoe fires hands, Daivari staggers around, but Briscoe CHOPS him in a corner! Briscoe then REDNECK CRANE KICKS! The fans fire up and Briscoe brings Daivari up, but Daivari JAWBREAKERS back! Daivari TOSSES Briscoe out, but the ref has Sterling stay back. Daivari goes out to get Briscoe, but Briscoe sends Daivari into railing! The fans fire up while Daivari writhes, and Briscoe stands him up.
Briscoe CHOPS Daivari, high-fives fans, then CHOPS Daivari again. Briscoe then brings Daivari around to SMACK off a chair! The fans fire up as Briscoe makes Daivari take a seat. Briscoe refreshes the count, then runs up to BOOT Daivari down! The fans fire up more, and Briscoe UPPERCUTS Daivari again. Daivari goes to more railing but Briscoe CHOPS him down again. Briscoe tosses a chair into the ring, HEADBUTTS Daivari, then slides into the ring. Briscoe sets up the chair and the fans fire up! Sterling panics as Briscoe builds speed, so Sterling snatches the chair away! The fans boo but Briscoe goes out after Sterling!
Sterling defends his innocence but Daivari CLUBS Briscoe! And hits a NECKBREAKER on the floor! “ATHLETES!” “SUCK!!” Well, clearly Sterling doesn’t learn, but Daivari is control as Rampage goes picture in picture.
Daivari drags Briscoe up and into the ring, then grabs the legs, so he can stomp Briscoe’s gut! Briscoe sputters his way to a corner but Daivari digs his boots in! The ref counts, Sterling cheers, but Daivari lets off. Daivari argues with the ref, so Sterling CHOKES Briscoe! The fans boo but Sterling gets away with it. Daivari whips Briscoe hard into a corner! Briscoe sits down, and Daivari stomps him some more! Daivari snapmares Briscoe, KNEES him in the back, then clamps on a neck wrench. The ref reprimands the fishhook in there, but Daivari shifts to a chinlock. Daivari grinds Briscoe down, but Briscoe endures.
Fans rally up and Briscoe fights to his feet. Rampage returns to single picture as Briscoe fires body shots! Briscoe fires forearms but Daivari knees low! Daivari CLAWS Briscoe’s face, puts him in a corner, then hoists him up top. The fans rally for “DEM BOYS! DEM BOYS!” but Daivari CHOPS Briscoe. Daivari climbs up, brings Briscoe up, but Briscoe fires body shots! Briscoe DECKS Daivari, the fans fire up, but Sterling springs into action! The ref reprimands, Sterling argues with him, and Daivari runs up! Briscoe leaps over Daivari, but Daivari dodges the boot! SLEEPER! The fans boo but Briscoe RAMS Daivari into a corner!
Daivari holds on but Briscoe RAMS him in again and again! Briscoe is finally free, but Daivari then hammerlocks! LION’S LARIAT! And then a wrench, spin, LION’S DDT! Cover, TWO!! Briscoe survives Daivari’s double down and the fans fire up! Daivari throws hands but Briscoe feeds off it! The fans fire up as Briscoe mans up! Daivari headlocks, Briscoe powers out, but Daivari RAMS Briscoe! Briscoe roars! Daivari runs and RAMS Briscoe again! And again! Then Daivari fires hands! But Briscoe blocks to ROCK Daivari! And ROCK him again! And again! REDNECK PALM STRIKES! Briscoe puts Daivari in a corner!
Briscoe rains down fists and the fans count to TEN! Briscoe hops down, the fans fire up, and Briscoe CLOBBERS Daivari! And CLOBBERS him again! Briscoe whips, Daivari reverses, but Briscoe FLYING FOREARMS! The fans fire up with Briscoe and he runs at the corner. LARIAT, and then FISHERMAN BUSTER! Cover, TWO!! Daivari survives but Briscoe calls his shot! Briscoe drags Daivari up, reels him in, but Daivari fights the underhooks! Daivari wrenches, dodges a lariat, and SUPERKICKS! Briscoe wobbles, but he eggs Daivari on! Daivari runs up, into a ROLLING DEATH VALLEY! Daivari is down and Briscoe climbs up!
Sterling distracts Briscoe, and Daivari has time to hit the ropes! That trips Briscoe up! Briscoe tumbles to the m at, and Daivari hauls Briscoe up. Wait, Daivari underhooks the arms?! That’s blasphemy! But Briscoe powers up and out with a backdrop! And now Briscoe brings Daivari in, only for Sterling to get on the apron! The ref reprimands, Briscoe warns Sterling, but it’s ROCKY ROMERO that YANKS Sterling down! Daivari whips Briscoe, Briscoe reverses to TOSS Daivari! Rocky gets Briscoe the chair! Briscoe sets it up, and he takes FLIGHT! Down goes Daivari & Sterling! Briscoe puts Daivari in, climbs up, FROGGY-BOW!! Cover, Briscoe wins!
Winner: Mark Briscoe, by pinfall
The Conglomeration comes through for each other again, and that helps Briscoe win! But Azucar has his own match tonight, will he be feeling even sweeter after taking on Komander?
BREAKING NEWS for Dynamite!
With the confrontations we’ve seen from them all, we see Will Ospreay join forces with Will Hobbs, Mark Davis & Ricochet against Konosuke Takeshita, Kyle Fletcher, Brian Cage & Lance Archer! It’s the full Don Callis Family against the Aerial Assassin, the Powerhouse, Dunkzilla and The One & Only in an All Star 8 Man Tag! Which side will have all the momentum going into Full Gear?
Rocky Romero VS Komander w/ Alex Abrahantes!
Rampage returns and the bell rings. The fans rally as Azucar and Commander of the Skies circle, but Montel Vontavious Porter is watching backstage…? Who business could MVP and The Hurt Syndicate have here? Rocky and Komander tie up, Komander wrenches and wristlocks. Rocky rolls then DROPKICKS! Rocky gives some Latino Heat, then waits on Komander. The two reset, circle, and tie up again. Rocky waistlocks, SLAMS, then flips Komander, maybe a little too much. Rocky flips Komander over again but Komander kips up to arm-drag! Komander gives some Latino Heat of his own, and Rocky can’t help but smile.
The fans rally as Komander and Rocky feel things out. They knuckle lock, go shoulder to shoulder, and the fans cheer the Test of Strength. Rocky powers Komander back, then MONKEY FLIPS! Rocky rolls back but Komander blocks the mount to then go up and MONKEY FLIP back! It’s a double cover, TWO as both men bridge! The fans cheer this exchange, and the two roll to their feet.

Komander leaps over, keeps moving, and he springboards to FLYING ARM-DRAG!
The fans fire up while Rocky bails out. Komander builds speed to DIVE! Down goes Rocky and the fans fire up again! Komander feeds off the energy to put Rocky in the ring. Komander goes up a corner, takes aim, but Rocky moves. Komander rolls through, comes back, and dodges to then handspring and- FACEBUSTER from Rocky! Cover, TWO!

Komander kicks back but Rocky CHOPS Komander again. Komander flounders along ropes, but Rocky has him again. Komander turns things around to CHOP back! The fans and Abrahantes fires up as Komander fires off CHOPS and KICKS! The ref counts, Komander lets off, but Rocky sucker punches him! Rocky has Komander in the corner now, hoists him up again, but then traps him on the top rope by lacing the legs!
Komander flails while Rocky gets space. Rocky runs up to TOP SHELF KNEE! Komander falls in a heap, but Rocky wants us to watch. Sliding pose! Rocky goes back for Komander but Komander kicks at him. Rocky brings Komander up to CLUB him down. Rocky then stalks Komander, CLUBS him again, and stalks him to ropes. Rocky brings Komander into a waistlock, but shoves him to ropes to ROCK him in the back! Komander drops to his knees, but Rocky stands him up. Rocky shoves and ROCKS Komander again! Cover, TWO! Komander stays tough but Rampage goes to break.
Rampage returns and the fans fire up for Komander as he goes up, up, salutes, and ARIHARA MOONSAULTS Rocky down! The fans fire up and MVP is impressed. Komander puts Rocky in, the fans rally behind “KO-MAN-DER!” But Rocky intercepts the flight for a fireman’s carry! Komander slips free, suplexes, but Rocky slips free. Rocky shoves but Komander DROPKICKS! The fans fire up and Komander runs corner to corner to go up and up, MOONSAULT, into BOOTS! Komander staggers, into SLICED BREAD! Cover, TWO! Rocky is frustrated but he hurries to bring Komander back up. Rocky whips, but Komander tiger feints and rolls!
Komander goes up and has Rocky with a dragon sleeper! Inverted suplex, for a POWERSLAM into the corner!! The fans fire up as Komander sets Rocky in the drop zone. Komander climbs, tightrope walks, CIELITO LINDO!! Cover, Komander wins!
Winner: Komander, by pinfall
MVP nods, maybe he saw things not even he expected out of this match. Will Komander prove he’s not just worthy of MVP’s attention but of AEW’s attention? And with it, perhaps a title opportunity?
Backstage interview with Anna Jay.
Lexy Nair is with The Queenslayer and notes her AEW Women’s World Championship match set for Collision tomorrow night. It is No Disqualifications, and if Anna wins, she is the NEW champion. But if she loses… Anna will never challenge Mariah May for the title again. Anna says it is worth that risk. It is worth seeing Mariah’s eyes bulging out of her head until she passes out. With no rules, Anna is capable of anything. But in steps Taya Valkyrie, applauding and saying yes, Anna is capable of anything. But so is Mariah. And Mina Shirakawa could be anywhere. Maybe Anna wants some extra insurance? And by the way, The Vendetta does accept cash.
Anna says she can handle her business, so Taya can mind her own. Taya tells Anna okay, okay. But Deonna Purrazzo sends her regards. Stay safe out there. Anna says no, she won’t. Will Anna finally be The Star of the Show when she tears down Mariah? Or will The Virtuosa & La Wera Loca have something to say about that?
Rush & The Beast Mortos w/ Dralistico VS Alex Price & Richard Holliday!
Just 24 hours ahead of their Collision with The Acclaimed, La Faccion Ingobernable’s two bulls are looking to stampede! Will they be more than ready for the Full Gear Contenders Series?
The teams sort out and Mortos starts against Price, and just CLBOBERS him at the bell! Mortos keeps moving, Price drops then jumps, but into a SNAP POWERSLAM! The fans fire up and Mortos SMACKS Price! Mortos whips Price, Price ducks ‘n’ dodges, then goes up and over! Price DROPKICKS, DROPKICKS, and fires up! But then Mortos POP-UP SAMOAN DROPS him! Tag to Rush, and El Toro Blanco looms over Price. Rush stands Price up to CHOP him down! Rush eggs Holliday on, then SPITS at him! The fans boo but Price tags Holliday. Holliday steps to Rush, but Rush shoves him! Holliday UPPERCUTS!
The fans fire up but Rush CHOPS! Rush pie faces Holliday but Holliday fires up! Only for Rush to whip him into a corner and SPLASH! Snapmare and basement DROPKICK! Holliday bails out but Rush pursues. Rush CHOPS, then throws Holliday into railing. Rush dribbles Holliday off the railing, rains down fists, but the ref counts. Rush says leave him alone, but the ref warns him. Rush stops, then he puts Holliday in the ring. Rush snarls and storms back into the ring. Mortos CHOKES Holliday, the ref reprimands, but this lets Dralistico throw Price into steel steps! Rush whips Holliday corner to corner hard!
Rush DECKS Holliday with a forearm, stomps away on him, and goes corner to corner! “If you mess with the bull…!” BULL’S HORNS! Cover, LFI wins!
Winners: Rush & The Beast Mortos, by pinfall
This probably could’ve been over soon, but LFI likes to play with their food. But will they be much more to the point against Max Caster & Anthony Bowens?
Backstage interview with MVP.
Lexy is with Montel Vontavious Porter and brings up how he’s been watching matches here and there. Is he scouting talent? Absolutely! And as he’s been getting the lay of the land here in AEW, MVP sees so many young and gifted athletes with so much untapped potential. Some of them need motivation. Some need perhaps better management. And some just need to be hurt, beaten down again and again, to their knees. Because only when you’ve broken a man down to his knees can you teach him to stand and put him on the path to success. MVP says Swerve Strickland is a perfect example. So much to learn and yet he just won’t listen.
That is arrogance. It is that arrogance that the fans love, but it is also Swerve’s greatest weakness. Swerve thinks that one man can beat three. That is arrogance. Swerve calls himself the most dangerous man in AEW. With Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin around, that is arrogance. And arrogance, like pride, goeth before the fall. So MVP is paying attention to everything. For example, tonight, where MVP will be watching Ricochet in the main event. Oh, and that young luchador, Komander, what an impressive match. MVP likes that. And then tomorrow night on Collision, Shelton will find out exactly what Komander is made of, and what lessons he needs to learn.
The business plan has been set out, but will The Hurt Syndicate find the diamonds in the rough they are looking for? Or is it all fool’s gold compared to what they already have?
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!
On top of Shelton Benjamin VS Komander, and on top of the AEW Women’s World Championship No Disqualification match, Will Hobbs gets back into singles action as he takes on Bulk Bronson! With that All Star 8 Man Tag coming up, will going big be just the thing to power up the Powerhouse? Plus, relive the best of the last two weeks as the special AEW “November to Remember” music video debuts, set to Guns ‘n’ Roses’ hit song, November Rain!
Ricochet VS Dante Martin!
MVP just told the world he is watching this match, but surely so is The Don Callis Family. Will The One & Only show them something #OuttaThisWorld? Or will Angel Dorado remind us why he was the hottest high flyer not too long ago?
The bell rings and the fans rally up. Ricochet and Dante shake hands to show there is respect here. They circle, tie up, and Ricochet headlocks for a takeover. Dante headscissors but Ricochet moves around, rolls Dante, then floats to a headlock. Dante fights back up, but Ricochet wrenches to wristlock. Dante goes for ropes but Ricochet keeps him back. Ricochet continues to keep Dante from the ropes, so Dante just front flips on his own! Dante arm-drags free and the fans fire up! Dante and Ricochet hurry to their feet, but Dante knees low! Dante whips but Ricochet blocks and reels Dante in for a back suplex, only for Dante to land on his feet!
Dante bobs ‘n’ weaves, shoves Ricochet, but Ricochet avoids the dropkick! Jackknife bridge, TWO as Dante bridges up! Dante spins Ricochet, but Ricochet turns that to a backslide! TWO, and Ricochet whips. Dante leaps for a sunset flip! Ricochet stays up, tucks Dante for a sunset flip of his own, TWO! Dante swings, Ricochet dodges and rolls back to RANA, but both men get up! Ricochet DROPKICKS Dante down and the fans fire up! We get a shot of MVP once again liking what he sees. Dante goes to a corner, Ricochet runs up, but Dante slips out! Ricochet hits buckles, then Dante goes up, around, and ROCKS Ricochet!
Dante aims but Ricochet runs up. Dante jumps over as Ricochet slides out, and then Dante ASAI MOONSAULTS! Ricochet avoids it, Dante lands on his feet, and now Ricochet goes up a corner to MOONSAULT! Dante dodges and he JUMP KNEES! Ricochet sputters as he leans against the apron, and Dante slides in. Dante keeps moving, but Ricochet springboards! Dante ducks under, runs at Ricochet, but Ricochet goes up and over! Dante puts Ricochet on the apron but Ricochet ENZIGIRIS! Ricochet springboards again, FLYING LARIAT! Cover, TWO! Dante survives and the fans fire up as Rampage goes picture in picture.
Dante rolls to the apron but Ricochet goes right after him. Ricochet kicks Dante to the floor, then hops down to fetch him. Ricochet CHOPS Dante, ROCKS him, and Dante staggers around the way. Ricochet fires up the fans, but Dante DAREDEVIL DROPKICKS Ricochet through the corner! Now it’s Dante firing up the fans as he goes after Ricochet. Dante brings Ricochet around to CHOP against the desk! Dante puts Ricochet in the ring, fires back up, and he hurries in, only for Ricochet to CLOBBER him. Ricochet drops another elbow, and another! Dante flounders but Ricochet drags him up. Ricochet CHOPS Dante to a corner.
Ricochet UPPERCUTS Dante, then whips corner to corner. Dante hits buckles so hard, that he tumbles up and over, then to the floor! Ricochet lets the ring count climb a bit, and Dante stirs at 4 of 10. Dante rises, Ricochet eggs him on a bit, but Dante’s still down at 7 of 10. Dante stands at 8 and rolls in, only for Ricochet to drop knees! Ricochet rains down some fists, but the ref reprimands about closes fists. Ricochet swears he was using palm strikes. Ricochet drags Dante up, snapmares, and KICKS him in the back! Ricochet clamps on with a chinlock, and even traps an arm. Ricochet now shifts into a grounded cobra twist!
Dante endures, even as Ricochet throws punches into the ribs. Dante fights, rises up, and fires body shots! Ricochet CHOPS in return! Ricochet then scoops and SLAMS Dante, and Rampage returns to single picture as he climbs a corner. The fans fire up as Ricochet reaches the top, but Dante stands! Ricochet jumps over Dante, but Dante BOOTS him! Dante fires a flurry of forearms but Ricochet shoves him back. Ricochet runs up, Dante again slips to the outside, and Dante ROCKS Ricochet again. Dante springboards up and around for a CARTWHEEL CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO!! Ricochet survives, he runs at Dante, but Dante goes up and over!
Ricochet tumbles out as Dante then builds speed, and Dante DIVES! Direct hit at the ramp but Dante hurries to put Ricochet in. Springboard and MAMBA SPLASH! Cover, TWO!! Ricochet survives and the fans rally up again. Dante waits on Ricochet to rise up, then he half nelsons. Lift and- NO, Ricochet slips free to dragon sleeper! VERTI- NO, Dante slips free! Ricochet arm-drags Dante away, then catches him, Wrench and NORTHERN LIGHTS! Roll through, deadlift, BRAINBUSTER! Ricochet roars while fans are torn, RUNNING SHOOTING STAR! Cover, TWO!! Dante survives and Ricochet is surprised!
MVP is himself a bit frustrated, but Ricochet fireman’s carries. Dante fires elbows, slips free, and goes to run, but Ricochet SUPERKICKS! Ricochet runs up, into an ELBOW! Dante uses the same up and over, only to get caught! BLUE THUNDER BOMB! Cover, TWO!! Dante survives and Ricochet snarls. The fans fire up and Ricochet brings Dante up. Ricochet has the dragon sleeper, but Dante fires knees! Dante drops, victory rolls, TWO!! Ricochet catches Dante for a deadlift SAIDO!! The fans fire up as Ricochet takes aim! BANG and SPIRIT GUN!! Cover, Ricochet wins!
Winner: Ricochet, by pinfall
MVP nods, very impressed by The One & Only Ricochet. Ricochet’s arsenal certainly continues to grow, but he still shows respect to Dante. Will this momentum help Ricochet’s team take down The Don Callis Family this Wednesday Night Dynamite?
My Thoughts:
A very good Rampage, even with it being a five match night. Granted, it was clear Shida was going to win her match and LFI were going to win theirs. Well, so was Briscoe, but it was good stuff with Daivari getting a good showing and Rocky cancelling out Sterling so Briscoe would win. Great match from Rocky and Komander, too, and great win for Komander. Though, as MVP plugged in his promo, Komander is certainly losing to Shelton Benjamin, but I do appreciate the idea that anyone just floating around in the midcard could end up Hurt Syndicate material.
Ricochet VS Dante was a great main event, Ricochet of course won, but between being on Team Ospreay for Dynamite and Hurt Syndicate not leaving him alone, there are all kinds of possibilities for Ricochet. And great promos to hype up the two women’s matches we’re getting on Collision. That’s right, we’re getting two women’s matches! Harley continues to be hilarious, and I like this gag that she never has enough time to get her full madness out. Very good promo from Anna with Taya making a surprise appearance. Given Mariah is more than likely to win tomorrow night, Anna needs something outside of titles so I suppose a feud with The Vendetta could be something. Maybe it’s also a way to bring Tay Conti/Tay Melo back into story since it’d be a tag team feud?
My Score: 8.7/10
