The Bloodline is here!
Sami Zayn, Solo Sikoa and the Usos are all united after defeating Kevin Owens, Drew McIntyre and the Brawling Brutes at WarGames! What do they have planned for Monday Night Raw?
Becky Lynch is here!
Speaking of WarGames, here comes The Man who finished it off for Team EST! Raw’s commercial free first hour is already Big Time as Becky heads to the ring. Fans are fired up for Becky as she gets the mic. “The Man has come around to Norfolk, Virginia~! Man, it feels so good to be back and once again say, welcome to Monday Night Raw! I missed you guys.” Fans chant, “Welcome Back!” Becky appreciates that, and says it feels good to be back. Now this doesn’t feel right, though> The Man of the People should be out there with the people! She wants to come say hi to the fans! She finds a fan with her shirt, as well as Norfolk 3:16.
Becky high-fives fans, especially one with a Seth Rollins shirt. Fans cheer for Becky as she goes up higher into the bleachers. Who is this in the yellow? Bobby. Fans cheer for Bobby now! Well, Bobby, after four months on the bench, coming back at WarGames was probably the most physical brutal way to come back, but she wouldn’t have it any other way. And who is this? Zachary! Well, Zachary, now that she IS back, she’ll tell him that she’s ready to go through hell, jump off cages and flatten fools, and take care of business! There’s a lot of business to be taken care of! Zach says that’s what the man does and that’s right!
But in the time she’s been gone, a lot of change has happened. A lot of new faces showed up, a lot of a familiar faces came back, and she’ll slap the heads off every one of ’em! It started on Friday with Bayley, and in Saturday at Survivor Series, and… Bayley heads out! Bayley says, “No no no! Y’know what, Becky?” Becky sings, “Here she comes to ruin the day~!” Bayley says when she saw Becky come out here, she thought Becky was feeling humbled since she’s out there with the peasants. But Becky went on and on and on! Bayley tells fans to shut up but they boo more. Becky talked about putting her body on the line for the people? UGH!
Isn’t that what Bayley has been doing? Has Becky not seen- But then fans chant for Becky and drowns her out! Oh c’mon! Becky had one brutal match and that’s how you treat her? But Bayley gets NO respect these last four months! Ladder Match, Last Woman Standing, WarGames, and yet these idiots have no appreciation for their Role Model. Becky says first off, Bayley, don’t call Bobby a peasant. Well Bob sucks! No he does not! Bayley’s reason for no respect is she kept losing! SHE’s the loser! But Bayley and her lackeys started it, Becky ended it, but if Bayley still wants to fight, then Becky will get in the ring and they’ll fight.
Big talk from the big man all the way over there! Becky asks Bobby if she should fight Bayley. Bobby says to go kick her butt! But then Sky & Kai come down from the steps! They mug Becky, even as Sky has a neck brace! Becky uses a fan sign to slap them all around! Bayley storms up, now it’s 3v1! They brawl into the concourse! Fans waiting over there cheer this brawl! DMG CTRL TOSS Becky into the merchandise area, but she throws things at them! She BASHES Sky & Kai with a chain necklace, but Bayley BASHES Becky with a Money in the Bank briefcase lunchboxes! Becky TOSSES Bayley into the table! The displays fall over!
Sky & Kai come back for more, Becky deals with them, but Bayley rains down fists! Becky kicks Bayley into the cameraman! The refs and security rush over to stop this but fans want to “Let Them Fight!” Becky and DMG CTRL still want after each other, how will this end now that it’s hit a new level of animosity?

Winners: The Judgment Day, by pinfall
Rhea redeems herself for her loss at WarGames, and she redeems the Judgment Day for falling short against the OC! Will this only be the beginning of the true war between these factions?
Backstage interview with The Street Profits.
Angelo Dawkins says it feels so good to be back! Byron Saxton surprises them and welcomes them back. Tonight, they’re set to take on the Alpha Academy, but how does it feel just to be back? As good as Byron looks in that suit right now. But it seems everything’s changed. Becky is back, Rey left, Theory lost his briefcase… But that changes now! The Profits are back in business! And the Profits are up and- “SHOOOOOSH~!” Chad Gable thought he never had to hear that catchphrase again. But while the Profits were “galivanting on their vacation,” Gable & Otis have been working, quietly becoming the best part of Monday Night Raw.
And this place has just generally been better without the Profits. But Gable isn’t the kind to raise problems, he has solutions! HE requested this match, and since his ideas are awesome, the match was approved. So tonight, the Academy puts the Profits on the shelf, for good! Oh…? Speaking of shelves, anyone ever told Gable he looks like the Elf on the Shelf? Where are you, Gable?! But the more things change, the more things stay the same. The Profits beat the Academy before, tonight will be no different. And why’s that? Because the Street Profits are up, and #WeWantTheSmoke! Now get outta here, elf! Will things really be the same between these teams later tonight?
The Bloodline heads to the ring!
Sami Zayn, Solo Sikoa, and the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions are, as Sami’s shirt says, “Feeling Ucey,” and they go to the ring together. They get the mics, and fans chant “UCEY! UCEY!” Jimmy has the mic to say, “The Bloodline is now in your city!” They raise their fingers and so do many of the fans. “WE THE ONES! WE THE ONES!” Fans also chant “SAMI USO!” Jey says on Saturday, it was war at WarGames. “Y’all saw that. It’s probably one of the worst matches we’ve ever been through in our careers. I think I broke my hand for real. But uh, you see who was left standing tall, right?” They all raise their fingers again.
Jimmy says for the first time ever, “there are no crack sin the Bloodline, baby! Yes, sir!” But someone must be mad. Kevin Owens, that is. Kevin’s mad cuz Sami Zayn is not his dog, he’s the Bloodline’s dog! “My dawg!” Fans cheer the secret handshake! Fans then return to chanting “UCEY! UCEY!” Sami says that for the past six months, Jimmy accepted him no matter what. Jimmy really has been Sami’s “Down since day one.” That means everything to Sami. And Jey… Well, the last six months haven’t always been easy. Sami knows most of that time, Jey didn’t trust him. Sami knows Jey didn’t like him, either.
But at WarGames, “the way that you accepted me into this family… The way that you embraced me at the end of that match, that…! That! THAT! That was Ucey.” Fans chant “UCEY! UCEY!” again, and Sami wants Jey to know that here on out, any Bloodline business that they have to handle, Sami and Jey are on the same page. Sami offers a handshake, and Jey accepts it with a hug! Sami gets Jimmy to join the hug! Sami wants Solo to join in, and fans cheer Solo on. Jey and Jimmy tell their brother to join in, but then KEVIN OWENS appears! Sami tells Kevin to stop right there. “Before you do something stupid like come out here and try to fight me…”
Kevin says that isn’t why he’s here at all. Kevin says he’s actually here to tell Sami that he “gets it.” He completely understands why Sami did what he did on Saturday. Because how many times has Kevin done the exact same thing to Sami? How many times has Kevin betrayed Sami, stabbed him in the back, whatever you wanna call it, so Kevin gets it. He is actually not mad, he can’t blame Sami for that one bit. Kevin isn’t here to fight, it’s quite the opposite. Kevin can’t help but think about how, for 20 YEARS now, their careers have been linked to one another.
But after Saturday… Kevin doesn’t wanna fight Sami, team with him, ride to shows together, none of it. Kevin is just done with Sami. Kevin wants nothing to do with Sami. Sami says that’s fine. Because he feels exactly the same. Sami never wants to team with Kevin, never wants to fight Kevin again, and he’s fine never being in the same room as Kevin! Sami does NOT need Kevin anymore! He has family now. Yeah, well, Kevin is genuinely happy for Sami. Because finally, everyone here in the WWE Universe can finally see just how great Sami Zayn is. Kevin has known it for 20 years, Sami deserves to finally have this recognition. Kevin loves it.
“But Sami, here’s the thing. Doesn’t matter who many times they tell you you’re in the Bloodline, and it doesn’t matter how many times you call them family, just remember this: You’re not their real blood, and you never will be.” Fans are torn hearing that, but Jey says not to worry about that, he has this. Jey says Kevin is mad cuz he ain’t got no family. “But check this out, KO! If you got a problem with Sami Zayn, you got a problem with Main Event Jey Uso now. That’s on me!” Kevin says he has good news for Jey, then. Kevin said he was done with Sami Uso, but he’s not done with Jey! He’ll kick his ass any day of the week!
So why not meet back up later tonight and let’s see what happens?! Jey says cool! He pinned Kevin at WarGames, and he’ll pin Kevin’s ass tonight! Challenge accepted!! The Right Hand Man VS the Prizefighter, will Jey get Kevin on behalf of his new brother in arms?
Candice LeRae is back!
But as she heads to gorilla, Nikki Cross is watching. Cathy Kelley walks up to welcome Candice back, and asks how Candice is feeling going into a match against Dakota Kai. Candice says she hasn’t been here on Raw long, she was just keeping her head down and trying to get a lay of the and. But then DMG CTRL just attacked her, injured her, and maybe they thought she was a threat. She takes the mic to “reintroduce” herself: She’s Candice LeRae, the woman who will take Dakota OUT, tonight! Candice heads out, but will the Poison Pixie sting #CobraKai before getting stung herself?
Backstage interview with Matt Riddle & Elias.
Byron says they’ve had a successful tag match, but what has it been like teaming? The Bro says it’s awesome! It’s like they were teaming up for years! Elias hits the Drift Away, Riddle hit the Floating Bro, they got the 1-2-3! Does Elias remember that? Yes, it was only just last week. Right, that was awesome! Elias says yes, it is awesome. But while Elias sees himself as a solo artist, he has to admit that they made a great duo. Riddle says they should go after those tag titles! What’s Elias say? Elias never has had WWE gold… But speaking of, The Usos, with Sami & Solo, walk over! Jey says Elias never will have gold. They’re the twos, and #WeTheOnes!
Oh, is that right? Then why don’t they put their money where their mouths are and put those titles on the line. Any time, any place! YEET. The Bloodline heads out, Sami rolls his eyes at Elias & Riddle, but Solo stares them down. Riddle says he and Elias have this. Will The Drifter & The Bro have a smash hit on their hands already?
The Street Profits VS The Alpha Academy!
Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford bring back the red Solo cups, and they go through the crowd! They’re back, and are facing some familiar foes. Will it be like old times for the former tag team champions? Or will “Master Gable” have a winning game plan for him and his number one guy, Otis?
Raw returns and the teams sort out. Gable and Ford start, circle, tie up, and Gable wrenches an arm to a wristlock. Ford endures, rolls, rolls and handsprings to wave hi to then wrench back. Ford has the wristlock and he mocks Gable’s pain. Ford tells Otis that if he tags in, Ford will whoop his ass, too! Ford wrenches again, but Gable rolls, bridges, handsprings and spins to headlock, spin and drop toehold! Gable headlocks and says “A THANK YEW~!” Fans boo but Ford fights up. Gable tags Otis, Otis KNEES Ford low then CLUBS him down! Ford goes to ropes, Otis CLUBS away with big crossface forearms!

Austin Theory is here!
And after that fast and furious Triple Threat, he is the NEW United States Champion! The Youngest Two-Time United States Champion Ever goes to the ring, he gets the mic, and fans boo while he says, “Who’s the kid now? All of you wanted to hold me down. You wanted to be the nail in the coffin to the end of my career. But it’s not gonna change the fact that all of you said that that kid had the worst MITB cash-in of all time. You all said that that kid was stupid. Well who looks stupid now?” Fans shout, “YOU~!” But Theory won’t ever be called a kid again after what he did at Survivor Series. He beat Seth Freakin’ Rollins AND the All Mighty Bobby Lashley at the same damn time!
“And that makes me a TWO-TIME United States Champion!” And to make it clear, he is no longer the next big this or that, he has arrived and is the Now and Forever of the WWE! He is the Face of Monday Night Raw! Fans boo but Theory says there’s something he’s been thinking about a lot lately. Ever since getting to the WWE, day one everyone has had a problem with him. “And why is that? One simple word: Jealousy! Because everybody wants to be Austin Theory! That’s right, everyone wants to BE Austin Theory! And all of you, you see the inevitable. I’m younger, I’m stronger, I’m better, and I am the unescapable. And the Austin Theory Era begins NOW!
“And I’ll tell you what else!” BURN IT DOWN~! Here comes Seth Rollins! Fans sing “OH~ OHH~ OHHH~!” as Rollins swaggers in a mess suit. Rollins gets in the ring, goes past Theory and gets himself a mic. Rollins throws off the sunglasses, and he stops Theory from saying anything to say, “Shut your mouth, and let them sing.” “OH~ OHH~ OHHH~!” Theory says, “What happens when someone so young, so talented, so far ahead of every single person in this entire industry makes the so-called, once-upon-a-time undisputed future look like the past?”
Rollins tells Theory, “You may have lucked your way into that United States Championship on Saturday, but that doesn’t change a damn thing! Because you know deep down in your soul, Monday nights belong to me!” Fans cheer that, and continue to sing, “OH~ OHH~ OHHH~!” Rollins looks at Theory, and at the belt, and says, “Before I go, I’ve only got one thing left to say to you. Congratulations… kid.” Fans cheer as Rollins asks Theory what’s wrong. Does he not like that? Does he want to hit Rollins? Does Theory wanna fight Rollins?! Well they ain’t gotta wait! They can do it here and now! “Gimme your best shot, kid.”
Fans sing, Rollins waits for Theory to do something, but Theory says, “I’ll fight you. But on the champ’s time.” Fans boo as Theory says, “I’m not your damn kid.” Theory pushes past Rollins and Rollins laughs. When and where will Theory and the Visionary fight for the gold?
WWE Investigates returns!
Byron Saxton says, “Over the past few months, Dexter Lumis has stalked The A-Lister, The Miz. With a series of mental and physical attacks. Johnny Gargano has come forward claiming to have a bomb shell regarding this explosive situation.” Johnny Wrestling revealed it was all a scam cooked up by The Miz! Miz claimed Gargano’s interview was completely false and a blatant smear job! But then Gargano revealed a Hollywood producer Miz met with was really a private investigator with hidden camera! Miz’s defense was shot full of holes, and he was exposed as holding out on Lumis.
So this all comes to an end in Lumis VS Miz, and if Lumis wins, he gets paid everything he’s owed on top of that WWE contract! It will be Anything Goes, will nothing stop the Tortured Artist from exacting both revenge and achieving redemption?
Raw returns and Byron interviews Miz on his way to gorilla. They’re moments away from the match, and Miz has Byron save his questions. Wait, is that bag full of the money owed? Yes, but this doesn’t matter, because that match isn’t happening! Miz reinjured his hand! Competing in this condition would go against any medical physician’s advice. But Adam Pearce walks in and calls Miz’s bluff. We know Miz isn’t hurt. How can he say that! Because that’s not even the right hand. Yeah, it’s his left. Not what Pearce meant. And not the point! Miz is too hurt to compete in any match, let alone Anything Goes! That’s a free for all! Whose dumb idea was that, anyway?!
Pearce tells Miz that whatever he says will not stop this match from happening, and it is happening tonight. Fine, Miz will compete. But let it be known that Lumis’ hopes of ever becoming a WWE superstar end tonight! And before the show is over, Pearce will be hearing from Miz’s lawyer! Miz heads out, bag of money in hand and bandages all around the other. Will Miz end up needing bandages for some real injuries after tonight?

Roll up, with feet on the ropes! TWO!! Lumis survives and Miz is furious! Miz fires up but fans boo. “MASSIVE! BALLS!!” But Lumis kips up! SIDE EFFECT! And THE SILENCE!!! Miz taps, Lumis wins!!!
Winner: Dexter Lumis, by submission (wins the money and the contract)
Pearce presents the contract and welcomes Lumis to Raw as he signs on the dotted line. Fans fire up and Lumis has the bag of money! “You Deserve It!” Lumis pulls the money out to give a kid in the front row $100! And the same for a few other kids in the front row! This was never about the money but the principle! But then Miz CLOBBERS Lumis! Miz steals the money back, and even snatches one kid’s $100 bill! Fans boo, but then a SUPERKICK from Johnny Gargano takes Miz out! Gargano grabs the bag, and he gives that kid the $100 bill back! Lumis and Gargano thumbs up. Will things start going Lumis’Â way now that he’s a true WWE superstar?

Candice taunts Bayley, but officials keep Bayley & Iyo heading up the ramp. Pearce tells Candice to let them handle DMG CTRL, so she goes back to the ring. Candice keeps glaring at Bayley, but as Raw returns to single picture, Dakota ROCKS and BOOTS Candice down! Candice goes to ropes, Dakota stomps away on her!

Candice came back from that beating and just beat Dakota! Is this a sign that Damage CTRL will not take control of Raw?
The Bloodline prepares backstage.
Jey Uso does push-ups to warm-up, and he has Jimmy and Sami cheering him on. Jey’s loose and ready, but will he handle Kevin Owens? Or will Kevin #JustKeepFighting?
Backstage interview with Asuka, Alexa Bliss & Bianca Belair.
White Rabbit glitch… But Cathy Kelley asks the three how they feel just after their WarGames win. Physically, they’ve been better. But mentally, they’re good because it’s all over with. Bianca and Bayley had been going after each other for months, because it started at SummerSlam, but ended at Survivor Series. But DMG CTRL thought they could take out Becky and take over Raw, but Bianca held it down and called Becky. Every single plan that DMG CTRL had backfired. So now, Bianca is very happy with her team, because her girls did what they had to do to finally end this. Asuka agrees, and says in Japanese that sure it hurts, but it was all worth it!
Alexa… is distracted. She snaps out of it and says Bianca was right, Becky was a great call. Is everything alright with Alexa mentally as well as physically…?
BREAKING NEWS for next week!

The Bloodline is beside themselves! Despite all he went through on Saturday, and despite all he went through tonight, the Prizefighter comes out on top! Will Kevin continue to #StunTheWorld and find his way back to a match with the Tribal Chief?
My Thoughts:
A great Raw to follow up Survivor Series, and a great commercial free first hour. Great promo from Becky with the fans, as well as a brawl with DMG CTRL. This definitely fits what I felt in Becky and Bayley feuding, and I’m pretty sure this will determine a #1 contender to face Bianca at the Royal Rumble. Bianca, Asuka and Alexa had a good promo, and clearly Alexa is still likely to join in on the story building with Bray Wyatt. White Rabbit glitch during the promo, she’ll definitely “relapse” into being spooky Sister Abigail Alexa, and maybe we’ll get something more like Alexa at last WrestleMania with the dark crown and all that.
Good stuff from Judgment Day and OC. Rhea VS Mia turning into a Mixed 8 Tag was an interesting move, and clearly things aren’t done in this feud. I suppose that’s fine, but I can’t be sure what the endgame is. They keep teasing co-ed interaction with Rhea and Mia each getting their shots in on the guys, maybe a real co-ed rules match is what they’re after? Really good return promo and match from The Street Profits, and of course they win in their return. It’s hard to say where the Profits are going next, but all tag teams should be aiming for the tag titles. Elias & Riddle challenging the Usos already makes me think that’s just for Elias to turn on Riddle.
Great return match for Candice against Dakota, and I do like that they kept Bayley & Iyo from being ringside because they’re (in kayfabe) not cleared to compete. Iyo wearing a neck brace was a nice touch to that, too. Candice getting the win was good stuff, but I think Nikki Cross might be her real feud after spotting her in the background. And great stuff out of the Miz VS Lumis story. I noticed Miz was faking the wrong hand, which was hilarious, and it was great that Pearce pointed it out. For “Anything Goes,” what we got on TV was rather tame, but I did like them thinking outside the box with that vice.
Naturally Lumis wins to have the vice and the money, and how great that a few kids got $100. Granted, a bit of a shame that not all the kids up front got $100 but who knows how much money was even really in that bag. But this is far from the blow-off, and with Gargano still getting involved, there has to be something building so that more of The Way is working together on Raw. Theory and Rollins had a great promo together, and that is clearly the 1v1 feud with no Lashley or even Mustafa Ali getting in on things. Rollins VS Theory 1v1 will make for a great Royal Rumble match, or even just a great match on Raw to get some great ratings.
And speaking of a great match, great stuff out of the Bloodline and Kevin Owens. Great promo where Kevin and Sami certainly say they’re no longer friends after the TWENTY YEARS together, but with these two, you never know. Kevin VS Jey was so good, and Kevin winning is great stuff. I thought in WarGames, there was going to be a point where Sami ends up torn. Maybe if Kevin keeps having matches like this and it’s up to Sami to screw him over again, that could be the pivotal moment where Sami can’t bring himself to do it. They’ve been doing such a great job with the story, I have no doubt they’ll pull this one off.

JOHN CENA IS HERE!
The fans already chant “Let’s Go, Cena!” “CENA SUCKS!” before the music even begins! Then they sing along, “JOHN CENA SUCKS~!” as Cena walks out in the custom London merchandise. Cena goes to the ring, “The Last Time Is Now” towel draped over the back of his head like the other times, then he sets the towel on the apron. Cena grabs a mic, the fans continue to duel, and Cena winds up before bringing the mic up. Only for Cody Rhodes to make his entrance! The fans sing along with the song, “WHOA~ OH~!” The pyro goes off, Cody high-fives the fans in the front row and along the ramp, then he heads to the ring.
We get the second “WHOA~ OH~” and pyro before Cody pounds on the steel steps and steps up into the ring. Cody and Cena circle each other a bit before Cody grabs himself a mic. The fans finish singing the song, “YOU’LL FOLLOW ME UNTIL THE END~! I AM MY KINGDOM!” The fans cheer, then change to singing, “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cena steps to Cody but Cody tells him, no no no. We listened to Cena talking for two weeks, so allow Cody to do his job for him! Cena will cook Cody, end him, but where does he want to start? There is so much to make fun of when it comes to Cody! For starters, Cody’s lisp.
Cody will give him this one: Stardust! Fans cheer for “STARDUST! STARDUST!” Cody says that must bother Cena, that is who he is wrestling at WrestleMania 41, his final time! What else can Cena go after? Oh, yes! Cody spots it in the crowd and brings up the “arm tattoo on his neck.” The fans again sing for “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cody keeps going: He got booed in a company he helped make. But Cena won’t go for that. Maybe Cody is struggling with the idea that Superman is truly dead. The fans duel for “Let’s Go, Cena!” “CENA SUCKS!” Cody says this brings him to his next point: Cena’s words have not matched his actions.
For these last two weeks, Cena has lied to the audience. The fans boo, and Cody says they used to ride together, sing Poncho & Lefty. Cena surely cared about Cody, and he for sure cared about the fans. Don’t even look at Cody, look at the fans and tell them the real reason why. The fans chant, “You Sold Out!” while Cena thinks on his words. Cena says he is not going to reduce himself and punch down to Cody’s level. Cody’s been protected long enough. Cena also won’t “cook” Cody, he’ll just BURY him! Just like Cena has buried everyone else! The fans have been saying for years that Cena buries talent. Cena doesn’t bury talent, he IS talent! Cena BURIES mediocrity!
Cena doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the lisp or his failures. Cody has manipulated his way to the top of this business, and his ego outweighs his ability. All Cody has done is ride the coattails of Cena’s success! Cena has been so great, that the WWE could hand the heartbeat of this business to Cena’s chauffer! That’s right! Cody, your champion, is nothing more than Cena’s chauffer. A slimy pickpocket that thinks just cuz he stole the blueprints, he can run the kingdom! That is WHY Cena did it! Because it disgusts him! Cody sat by Cena’s side for YEARS, and stole every secret he needed to be undeniable, but he is still underwhelming.
Cena tried to drill it into Cody’s egotistical skull. Cody has to be authentic because fans can see through phony. Cody is too polished, too rehearsed, and relies on lazy gimmicks like fans singing his name just to get by! The fans boo, but then also sing, “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cena says Cody is just like the Pied Piper! All he’s ever done is find a way to make a catchy tune trick the people into loving mediocrity. Strip away the music and entrance, there is not much to look at but that pinstriped suit. But you could walk Cena out in silence, and you can bet your last dollar that he could body you before your first breath!
Cody Rhodes does not look like John Cena, doesn’t act like him, and doesn’t work like him. But Cody also doesn’t look like himself, act like himself, and work like himself, because he is still afraid to show who he is. So what do we get instead? Cody gives us a generic mix of every superstar he’s ever loved and every TV show he’s ever watched, in some big confused blob, that makes him still look like a 16-year-old kid taking acting lessons, because he is too afraid of public speaking. Cody Rhodes has shown Cena ONE thing, and the one thing is that someone mediocre wearing something meaningful is all it takes to trick the people!
Cena has worked too damn hard to make THAT a symbol of mastery to have it paraded by a paint-by-numbers, sociopathic nepo-baby who is so into himself that he had his wrestling gimmick tattooed for the world to see! It’s not where the tattoo is, it’s what the tattoo IS that exposes Cody for who he is: a common fan like the rest of them. So after WrestleMania, it’ll be great for Cody! He can go to Fanatics, buy the toy belt, call himself the fans’ champion, because the last real champion is taking that belt home forever to expose Cody for who he is: an errand boy that got lucky! Fans are actaully fired up behind Cena!?
Cody tells Cena that he didn’t expect this. But maybe Cena is right. Maybe Cody was chosen. But you know who chose him? The fans did. Can Cena say the same? Or was it some guy in an office who isn’t even here anymore and we can’t even talk about him? Yeah, let’s go ahead and go there. Stirp everything away from Cody, does he know who he is? He’s a wrestler like his father before him, and if anyone is a corporate creation, it is Cena and not Cody! Gosh, everyone is so terrified of Cena on the mic but Cody isn’t not. Cena had more d*ck in his promo than in his jorts! Making fun of Cody for looking like he’s a kid?
Well, Cena’s the one who hangs out with Zac Efron and wishes he was 16 again! And thanks for the softball saying Cena created all of this and he created Cody. Well, Cena created a lot of disenfranchised fans that made it easy for Cody to pack up, go somewhere else, and say, “Hey! Look at me!” Cody tells Cena not to act like he cleaned up his room before he packed up for Hollywood. And while we’re at it…! There are two of them in this ring right now, and what Cody is about to ask might punch a giant hole in Cena’s logic. Between the two of them, which one of them sold out to The Rock? The fans again chant at Cena, “You Sold Out!”
Cody tells Cena that Cena is still Cody’s hero. But Cena is also a POS. Cena smirks while fans repeat that. Cena says just like all the fans’, Cody’s head is full of feces and not facts. Cena has worked 100 times harder than Cody and never once in all of that was he ever protected from the audience, or the superstar, present company included, taking their best shot. Everyone knows that every time Cena steps in the ring, it is a challenge to every superstar to take their strongest swing to see if they are worthy to put Cena down. NO ONE has been worthy! So Cena has just decided to do it himself. That’s why Cena has never left, has always been here.
No matter how high the hill is to climb, no matter what garbage they give him, Cena finds a way to make it great. Cody had to leave because Cody realized that at best, he can’t even wipe Cena’s ass! Cena makes empires for billionaires! All Cody ever did was steal money from their kids. “See you at WrestleMania, champ.” Cena turns to go but Cody wants to remind Cena, that all the time Cody has been here, never once has an audience ever chanted, “You Can’t Wrestle.” Cena hears the fans repeat that and he turns red int he face! Cena storms back into the ring, he and Cody square up, but then Cena smirks again.
Cena tips his hat and then takes a swing! Cody catches him! CROSS RHODES!! Cody smooths out his suit while he stands over Cena. Then he points to the sign while fans sing, “CODY! CODY RHODES~!” Cody holds the belt up before he exits, will Cody do very much the same in just 19 days?

Jimmy knows the world is doubting Jey. But tonight, Jimmy closes that noise. Gunther’s a big deal, but so is Jey. And so is Jimmy. Ain’t no Ring General, just a man who is beatable. Tonight, Jimmy beats Gunther. At WrestleMania, Jey beats Gunther and becomes World Heavyweight Champion! YEET! They shake it out and then Jey holds on. “I hear you. Just be careful.” Jimmy nods, and Jey heads out. Will #BigJim make good on his word? Or will Gunther get back at him for last week’s slap?

Toni Storm is here!
Milwaukee cheers as The Good Land is now TIMELESS! Toni goes right to the ring, puts her AEW Women’s World Championship belt right down on the mat, and has a mic to say, “Milwaukee, I love you.” The fans cheer that! Toni says please, enough of the banter! “Megan Bayne, get your oiled up, feathered ass out here right now!” No response, so Toni says fine. If Megan is too busy crushing watermelons and eating babies, then listen up! The spotlight drops on Toni as the fans chant her name. Toni says, “Last Wednesday, you were the better woman. I don’t know what happened, it all happened so fast. But before I knew it, I was flat on my back like you’d just bought me a steak dinner.
“I am embarrassed. I am hurt. And I’m ashamed. And the worst part is, you made it look so easy.” Toni rests on the mat beside her belt to say, “I went back to my hotel, and I turned off all the lights. And I laid there, going over the same scene in my head over and over and over again, wondering if this is what’s going to happen to me at Dynasty.” Fans say no, but Toni continues, “And then, when the sun came up, I was covered in sweat. Moreso than usual. But I got up, and I went into the bathroom and I took a piss. And then I stubbed my toe, then I whacked my head on the sink. And when I came to, I looked into the mirror, and I remembered exactly who I am!”
The fans cheer, and Toni rises up to say, “I am Timeless Toni Storm! And at Dynasty, I will be leaving with your tits in my purse!” Toni approaches the ropes for her close up, only to be CLOBBERED by Penelope Ford! The Superbad Girl grins, the fans boo, but Ford fires off hands on Toni! Ford whips, but Toni reverses to GERMAN SUPLEX! Ford ends up in a corner, Toni runs in, SWEET HIP MUSIC! The fans fire up as Toni stomps a mudhole into Ford! But then Megan CLOBBERS Toni! The fans boo as now the Megasus gets the drop on Toni! Megan fireman’s carries, FATE’S DESCENTÂ on the belt!
The fans boo even more as Megan sits Toni up, tells her to “BOW! DOWN!” then throws Toni down again! Megan stands over Toni, and with just EIGHT DAYS left, is there no such thing as “timeless” in AEW?
The Death Riders speak.
Claudio Castagnoli starts with German, and he says that while Dax Harwood will be the first victim of the Death Riders, this Wednesday is when the Swiss Cyborg does something for himself. Claudio calls out Adam Copeland to go 1v1 for what Cope did to him! And if Copeland thinks that was ruthless, Claudio knows he is losing his edge and is just trying to cope with it! Claudio will beat Cope to a pulp, but leave just enough of him alive to limp to Dynasty so he can team up with his “two little groupies,” and fail at another chance of becoming champion here in AEW.
Moxley pats Claudio on the shoulder and says, “There are only three women I fear in this world: My mother, my sister, and my wife. Until I met Marina Shafir. On the day that she just snaps, I know I don’t wanna be the one who pissed her off. Part of me thinks maybe me and you, Swerve, we should just grab some popcorn, sit and watch these ladies tear each other apart. But you talked a really, really big game on Wednesday, and now you gotta back it up. Right now, that’s the job. Poor, sweet Willow.” Marina speaks up and warns Willow in Romanian, then in English she dares Willow to keep smiling once Marina’s ripped out her liver and shoved it down her throat!
Moxley & Claudio look at each other, Moxley with wide eyes and Claudio with a big smile. They head out with Marina, will there be no solving this Problem?
Jay White VS Kevin Knight!
The Switchblade has put his name in the hat for the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, knowing full well Will Ospreay and Hangman Adam Page will be in it, too. But will White be rolling towards the Owen Hart Cup opening round? Or will The Jet take him on quite the flight?

The fans fire up and White drags Knight up. White clinches for the URENAGE! White says time to end it! Clinch and BLADERUNNER!! Cover, White wins!
Winner: Jay White, by pinfall
Knight pushed White in this one, but he still had to Breathe with the Switchblade! White grabs a mic to say, “Let’s hear it for Kevin Knight!” The fans cheer, and White says, “Just like myself, Kevin went through the NJPW Dojo. And although this year, it won’t be yours in the Owen, there’s always next year. Because I’m pretty sure we’re going to see a lot more of Kevin Knight in AEW.” The fans cheer that! White says that was Knight’s cue to leave but guess Milwaukee thought otherwise. White says, “See you around.” They shake hands, and Knight takes off. When and where will The Jet fly back to AEW?
White says the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Tournament will have the best of the best. And just like White does every time, he will show us that he is the MOST elite! Because he needs to win the Owen Hart Cup, because he needs to go on to All In: Texas, because he needs his shot at the AEW World Championship! The fans cheer that, and White says because he is the Last Rock ‘n’ Rolla, the man who singlehandedly sold out Madison Square Garden, King Switch! The Catalyst of Professional Wrestling! This is STILL his era! And at All In, White will show us it is STILL the Switchblade Era! White has issued his mission statement, but will it be mission accomplished by July?
AEW shares a tweet from Athena.
In response Mercedes Mone posting, “Milwaukee, say hello to your C E O,” The Fallen Goddess says, “Maybe I will say hi… TONIGHT!” Could the Forever ROH Women’s Champion be the one to face the TBS Champion tonight? We’ll have to see, after the break!
Mercedes Mone VS Robyn Renegade!
#FourBeltsMone held onto the TBS Championship after getting quite the fight from Billie Starkz. But her AEW Dynasty dance card is still open. Will Mone win herself a night off? Or will this Renegade make Mone work for her money?
The bell rings and Mone circles with Robyn. They tie up, go around, and Mone headlocks. Robyn powers out but Mone runs her over! Milwaukee is tourn, but things speed up.

The CEO smiles as she puts this Renegade down and grabs up all her belts. Tony Schiavone joins Mone in the ring and congratulates her on another win. It seems like that the Money Train is running hotter than ever. But he understands she had something she wants to say, so the floor is hers. Mone says that’s right. The fans boo, Mone frowns, and she takes the mic from Schiavone. “I am the greatest TBS Champion of all time! And I came to AEW to win more gold. So I’m officially declaring myself in the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament! That’s right! I’m planning on winning the Owen Cup.
“And then, the Money Train is gonna make her way to Texas to All In! And then, I’m going to become the AEW Women’s World Champion!” Fans are torn again but Schiavone says that tournament will have a lot of competition, including Billie Starkz, who- Mone stops Schiavone there. She doesn’t wanna hear about that stupid kid! Billie has a lot of heart, but not as much heart as Robyn! Give it up for Robyn! Way more heart than that stupid Billie. Who even trained Billie? They suck! You’re looking at the greatest women’s wrestler of all time! WAIT! Athena really IS here! The fans cheer as THE ROH Women’s World Champion is on AEW!

Mone puts her belts aside, to take a swing on Athena! Athena dodges and DECKS Mone! The fans cheer, Athena goes to the corner, and Robyn helps Mone up. Mone gets away, O-FACE for Robyn! Well, not the target Athena wanted, but Athena does look at Mone’s TBS Championship. Athena shouts, “This is MY show now!” Will Athena’s Forever Reign be the one to add more gold? Or has she just put herself on Mone’s gold colleting radar?
Backstage interview with Queen Aminata.
Lexy Nair is with the One True African Queen, and it would seem there is unfortunate news. Aminata’s hand is wrapped up, she is unable to compete tonight. Taking her place in tonight’s main event is Billie Starkz. Given all this, how does- Serena Deeb walks in. Deeb smirks and says Aminata must know this was preventable, right? Deeb had the game plan, offered it to Aminata, and Aminata didn’t want to listen. Let’s look at history, Aminata. Every time Aminata listened, she won. Every time she didn’t, not only does she lose, she ends up injured. This is all choices. Everything they do is choices. And unfortunately, Aminata made the wrong choice.
Aminata admits, Deeb is right. Everything is about choices. And Aminata still choose not to listen to Deeb’s trash! Not listening to any of that. Okay, Queen, Deeb respects that. But deep down, Aminata knows Deeb is right. And if Aminata thinks there’s a slight chance that she knows that Deeb is right, well, Aminata will have some weeks at home to rest up. Here’s some reading material. Deeb shoves her playbook into Aminata’s hand, will Aminata do her homework?
“Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith VS Top Flight w/ Leila Grey!
Speaking of learning, The Redwood & Bad Apple want to make The Learning Tree proud, and that means winning some championships to go along with Chris Jericho’s ROH World Title. Will Bill & Keith be one step closer to facing The Hurt Syndicate with tonight? Or will Darius & Dante Martin soar far above the trees to be next in line for gold?
The teams sort out and Bill starts against Darius. The fans rally, but Dante wants in! Darius tags Dante in, and now Keith says he wants in! Bill tags Keith, he and Dante tie up, and they go around. Keith puts Dante on ropes, Dante turns things around, but Dante lets off as the ref counts. The two go again, Keith arm-drags hard and has the armlock. Dante rolls and arm-drags free, then he DROPKICKS Keith down! The fans fire up, Dante A-LIST LARIATS! Tag to Darius, he snap suplexes Keith and tag sin Dante. Slingshot SENTON!

Darius fires body shots and forearms, but Keith ROUNDHOUSES him down again. Keith brings Darius up to whip, but then sends him back the other way for an ELBOW! Bill applauds but he might be the only one. Keith steps on Darius’ face, then has a cocky cover, TWO!
Keith references Jericho but that doesn’t finish it, so Keith clamps on a CAMEL CLUTCH! Darius endures, even as Keith CLAWS his face! The ref reprimands, Keith stops, and Darius fights up. Darius pries at the hold, but Collision goes to break.
Collision returns and Bill BODY BLOWS Darius down! The fans are torn as Bill stalks Darius. Bill drags Darius back by a leg but the fans continue to rally for Top Flight. Keith runs in around the way, but Dante SUPERKICKS Keith first! Darius lunges forward, hot tag to Dante! The fans fire up as Dante springboards, but Bill gets under. Dante comes back, but Bill LARIATS him down! Bill grins and soaks up cheers and jeers. Bill runs in at Dante to SPLASH! Then he runs at Darius to SPLASH! Back to Dante for a BOOT! Darius dodges the lariat, but not the BOSS MAN SLAM! The fans are torn as Bill talks trash on Bobby Lashley!
Bill soaks up the cheers and jeers while Keith has Dante in the corner. Bill runs up, but Dante slips free! The SPLASH takes out Keith! Dante HURDLES Bill!?

Bill hoists Dante up, SKYSCRAPER CHOKE SLAM! Cover, Bill & Keith win!
Winners: “Big Bill” Morrissey & Bryan Keith, by pinfall
If that teamwork and victory doesn’t say they’re ready, that look on Bill’s face sure does. Will the Learning Tree do this to the Hurt Syndicate? Or will Lashley & Shelton just hurt people?
Wait, The Cru slithers in! They have the chain necklaces ready like last week! Leila spots them, but it’s AR FOX that jumps in! Fox stands with Top Flight and The Cru backs off. Action says that’s fine, they’ll let it go this time. But will The Sight to See & The Man of the Hour ground Top Flight one way or another?
Backstage interview with Jamie Hayter.
Lexy Nair is with the Southampton Hayter and welcomes her back. Last time we saw her, she was victorious over Julia Hart, and now she’s in the main event of Collision. How does it feel to be back again? Hayter says it feels great. And if you know Hayter, you know she doesn’t like doing things by half measures. So being in the main event is just another Saturday night for her. But she will say she is very excited to be in the ring with a young whippersnapper like Billie Starkz. It really injects some energy into Hayter, it lights that fire. And Billie has a lot of fire herself, and Hayter likes that. Billie gets knocked down but she gets back up.
And Hayter while respects that about Billie, she doesn’t want Billie to confuse respect for mercy. If Billie steps to Hayter, Hayter will hit back and knock her on her ass. There’s no hesitation, no second chances. So if Hayter were Billie, she’d be smart. Or, find out the hard way. Your choice. Oh, and one more thing. Hayter noticed some girls are already putting in for the Owen Hart Tournament, so Hayter will do that, too. And it is very fitting that she returned at All In last year, because this year, she leaves All In the champion! Hayter is ready, how hard will she hit Billie on this Collision?
Adam Cole is here!
The Undisputed Kingdom follows him out, complete with “BOOM!” and “ADAM COLE BAYBAY!” as the Panama City Playboy prepares for his NO TIME LIMIT AEW TNT Championship match at Dynasty. As such, here comes the champion, Daniel Garcia! Daddy Magic has Garcia’s back as he goes to the ring, and the fans cheer for all parties involved. Cole has the mic and wants Garcia to listen. Cole knows tensions are high, but he’ll make this crystal clear: Cole has all the respect in the world for Garcia. The past two matches they’ve had are two of the toughest matches Cole’s had in his AEW career.
When they saw Garcia is the future of AEW, Cole means that in his soul, and the fans sure believe that. That is because Garcia is a fighting champion. When Cole challenged Garcia for the TNT Championship, Cole could not get the job done. But neither did Garcia. And so as a fighting champion, that must make Garcia sick to his stomach. He must not be able to sleep at night knowing he didn’t and couldn’t put Cole away. And unless Garcia is a coward, he’d want to change that. Cole sure wants to change that. Cole doesn’t want things to end in a draw. This needs to end with one man proving that he is better than the other, and dammit, that man is Cole!
Cole knows, Garcia knows, the entire world knows, that Garcia and Cole need to finish this fight. The fans cheer, Garcia nods, and he tells Cole he appreciates the kind words. Garcia agrees with a lot of that. They’ve been in the ring almost two months straight. And as much fun as it has been testing his iron against one of the best, truly, Garcia is getting a little bit frustrated. It is eating Garcia alive that he couldn’t beat Cole. Matt Menard tells Garcia that he is THE TNT Champion. How many chances is Cole gonna get? Garcia doesn’t need to be talked into this. It is Cole’s job to defeat Garcia, and Cole couldn’t do it!
Menard says Garcia doesn’t have to go through with this. Garcia pats Menard on the shoulder and says yeah, he doesn’t have to do this. But he wants to! So then, they will run it back one last time, BAYBAY! Roddy shouts, “DANNYYY~! Hey, listen. I have all the respect in the world for you. And just like Adam said, you are the future. And I’m not just saying this because he’s my best friend, but he is one of the best pro-wrestlers on the planet. And as good as you are, you’re just not there yet, dude.” Menard says, “Not there yet?” Menard and Roddy argue, Kyle joins in, but Garcia tells them all that this is enough!
Enough noise, enough distractions! April 6th, Kyle won’t be out there, Roddy won’t be out there, and Menard won’t be out there. Menard is a bit taken aback, but Garcia says at Dynasty, there will be no one ringside, there will be no time limit, and it will be Cole VS Garcia for the TNT Championship, ONE LAST TIME, and there WILL be a winner, cuz you’re looking right at him! Garcia holds up the title, but will he still own that title when it’s all said and done? Or is Dynasty going to be Undisputed?
Athena & Billie Starkz regroup backstage.
The Fallen Goddess says, “Mercedes~! HAHA~! Is that it?” Billie says yeah, just about. Athena says that is so annoying. But what’s the expression? Poke a bear, it might bite you? Well here’s one better. Mercedes, if you’re gonna be a passive aggressive b*tch, you’re gonna get hit. How did you like the taste of the floor? Was it good for Mercedes? Cuz it was great for Athena. So use this as a learning lesson: Keep Athena’s name, and her Minion’s name, out of your damn mouth. But hey! Mone is in the business of collecting championships? OMG, she’s such an inspiration, Athena is gonna do the same thing.
So how about this? Let’s get to real business, not that Mone knows what that is. Athena declares to her Minions and to the AEW fans around the world. Your Forever ROH Champion, Fallen Goddess, American Joshi, Minion Overlord, and all those other things, is OFFICIALLY ENTERING the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament! That’s great, right? And Billie! Billie made this all come together, what a brilliant little schemer she’s becoming. Billie has her match tonight! The main event! Look at her! And against a former AEW Women’s World Champion, Jamie Hayter. Is she ready? Yeah, she’s ready! She’ll make Athena proud!
Athena is sure Billie will find a way to disappoint, but tonight, Athena will be watching very closely. Good luck. Billie gives a salute, and it seems no matter if it’s ROH or AEW, Athena keeps Billie under her thumb. Will the inaugural and former ROH Women’s World TV Champion prove she’s ready for the big time?
Dax Harwood VS Wheeler Yuta!
Rated FTR made the challenge for the AEW World Trios Championships, The Death Riders made the challenge for Rated FTR to survive. And while Claudio wants Cope’s head on Dynamite, this Collision will kick things off! Will Dax the Ax chop down the youngest member of Moxley’s crew? Or will The Decoder already figure Dax out?
The bell rings, the two circle, and the fans rally up. They tie up, break, then go again. They break again, fans chant “YUTA SUCKS!” and Dax smirks. Dax and Yuta circle, tie up, and Dax spins Yuta to wrench an arm. Yuta rolls, switches the wrench and has the wristlock. Dax rolls, spins, and he wrenches to then slip through and headlock fort the takeover! Dax pushes Yuta down to a cover, ONE, but Dax holds onto the headlock. Yuta powers Dax to a corner, the ref counts, and both men let go slowly. Yuta KNEES low! The fans boo and the ref reprimands, but Yuta CHOPS! Yuta talks trash, whips corner to corner, but Dax reverses.
Yuta comes back, but Dax scoops him to SLAM him! Yuta UP KICKS, then he scoops to SLAM! Dax UP KICKS, both men get up, and Dax headlocks for a takeover! Yuta headscissors, Dax kips free, and roles reverse as now Yuta headlocks for the takeover. Dax keeps his shoulders up, but Yuta grinds the hold. The fans rally for Dax, he fights up, and Dax powers up and out. Yuta runs Dax over, keeps on moving, then he ducks the boot! Dax scoops, Yuta slips free, and Yuta chicken wings! Dax drops down to trip Yuta up, and Dax steps through, only for Yuta to scramble to the ROPEBREAK! The ref counts, and Yuta UP KICKS!

Dax builds speed to slide, but Yuta ducks it! Yuta sends Dax into the barriers! The fans boo but Yuta then sends Dax into steel steps! Yuta snarls while Dax clutches his arm. There are fans chanting for Yuta?! Yuta puts Dax’s arm on the steps to STOMP it! Yuta then goes to a corner, pulls the covers off the crossbars, and he drags Dax through!
Yuta stands on Dax’s arm to dig it into the crossbar! The ref reprimands, then counts, but Yuta stops at 4, and he reminds the ref, “I have ’til FIVE!” The fans are torn as Yuta copies Danielson, then he drags Dax up to the very top. SUPER DUPER PLEX! Both men are down and Milwaukee fires up as Collision goes picture in picture.
A standing count starts, but Yuta crawls over to Dax at 4 of 10. Cover, TWO! Yuta is annoyed but he drags Dax into a top wristlock. Yuta stands on the arm, then STOMPS it!

Yuta SLAMS the arm off the steps, then he flexes while soaking up cheers and jeers. Dax goes into the ring, Yuta goes up top, and Yuta MISSILE DROPKICKS! Yuta kips up, grins, and then takes a bow. Yuta STOMPS the bad arm again, and Dax goes to another corner.
Yuta storms up to CLUB Dax, then he wraps the bad arm around the ropes! The ref counts, Yuta stops at 4, and then he wrenches Dax into a snapmare. Yuta drops a knee on the elbow! Then Yuta clamps on a cording hold, only for Dax to fight up. Yuta wrenches, but Dax ROCKS him! Dax CHOPS Yuta, then JABS, JABS, JABS, before he DECKS Yuta! Yuta gets up but Dax DECKS him again! Dax LARIATS Yuta up and out, then hurries after him. Dax counter punches Yuta, runs up, but Yuta dodges! Dax runs into the POST! Yuta hurries to THROW Dax over the barriers! The ref reprimands Yuta while Collision returns to single picture.
Yuta returns to the ring, soaks up the heat, then goes back outside. Dax rises, Yuta ROCKS him! Dax CHOPS, Yuta ROCKS, then Dax ROCKS Yuta again and again! Dax DECKS Yuta, then hops up an dover the barrier. Dax reels Yuta in, but Yuta fights the driver! The bad arm also holds Dax back, and then Yuta BACKDROPS free!

Dax drags Yuta to a corner, and now for some payback! Dax SLAMS Yuta’s leg into the POST! Yuta writhes, but Dax grabs the legs again!
Dax shouts out The Hitman with the HANGING FIGURE FOUR! Yuta shouts in pain, the ref reprimands and counts, but Dax lets go at 4. Dax storms in, Yuta wants mercy, but Dax just grabs the leg again. Dax steps through but Yuta BOOTS him into the POST! Yuta hobbles his way over as Dax goes to the apron. Yuta climbs up top, but Dax CLUBS a leg! Yuta sits on the corner, and Dax climbs up!

Dax trips Yuta, ties up the legs, SHARPSHOOTER! Yuta endures while the fans fire up!
Yuta scrambles around and finds the ROPEBREAK! Dax holds until 4, and then shakes out the bad arm. Yuta talks with the ref, Dax runs up, and Dax HIP TOSSES, but Yuta uses that to arm-drag and SEATBELT!! YUTA WINS!
Winner: Wheeler Yuta, by pinfall
Dax can’t believe it, but he just got suckered in! Yuta celebrates like he’s already won the title match, and Claudio is there to pat Yuta on the back. Will the Death Riders keep scoring as Claudio takes on Cope? Or can Rated FTR even things up before Dynasty? Dax argues with the ref, the ref says his decision stands. His count was the count, there’s nothing to it. But then Dax gets in the ref’s face?!? Security rushes in there, but Dax fights them!? They hold Dax down, but Cash YANKS them all off him! But then Dax SHOVES Cash?! Dax realizes what he did and he apologizes. Cash is stunned, but just what is going on with Dax’s emotional state?
Dax offers a hand, Cash slaps it away to get in Dax’s face! Dax says he’s sorry, it was a mistake, but then Cash storms off. Well, guess you can’t spell frustration without F T R. Will they be able to sort this out before arriving in Philadelphia?
Backstage interview with The Patriarchy.
Alicia Atout is with Kip Sabian, Nick Wayne & Mother Shayna, and notes that just like last week, they’re here without any sign of Christian Cage. Just what is going on with The Patriarchy? But before anyone can speak up, The Cru barges in. Lio Rush asks Nick, “What’s up with your boy, Fox, man?” Nick says, “Huh?” Lio repeats himself, what’s up with his boy? Uh, his boy? Fox is far from Nick’s boy. Really? They know they’re history together. Didn’t Fox try to end Nick’s career? So Nick is just gonna chill back here while Fox is out there still breathing? Nick says okay, he gets what they’re up to here. Oh, really? And what’s that?
What The Cru is really doing is asking Nick for help, simply because they can’t get the job done. Oh, is that so? Nick doesn’t blame them for asking him. But Nick’s done with Fox, that is well in the past. Well Nick’s past is creeping up on their present, so for them, that’s an issue. Oh, is that really an issue? Kip has Nick calm down. These “gentlemen” surely didn’t come and interrupt them without a reason, so The Patriarchy should hear them out. AKA, get to the point. Lio says this is all they’re saying. Three of them, two of The Cru. But when the time is right, nobody knows Fox better than Nick Wayne. Just think on it.
The Cru heads out, but will The Patriarchy’s Prodigy take them up on the offer to team up?
Holo.grm VS Blake Christian w/ Lee Johnson!
The futuristic luchador’s undefeated streak continues, even as he joins Komander as a Titan of the Air. But while Hologram & Komander have settled things with La Faccion Ingobernable, this battle is about the Revolution Zero Hour last month. Will the Vanilla Babyface avenge that loss? Or will he just be number 22 on Hologram’s win streak?
The bell rings and the fans rally up. Hologram and Blake circle, approach, and then Blake slips past Hologram to strut. Blake then pie faces Hologram, talks some smack, and things speed up. Hologram RANAS, then hurdles, rolls, and pops Blake up. Blake RANAS back, then kips up! Blake runs up, but Hologram goes up and over. They both handspring, and Blake shadows Hologram. Blake chest bumps Hologram, then wheelbarrows, but Hologram rolls through to then step over, bridge back, but Blake turns that around on Hologram! Hologram keeps Blake away with boots, then rolls him up, ONE! DROPKICKS cancel out, both men kip up, and the fans fire up!
Blake mockingly applauds, but the fans rally behind Hologram. Blake offers a handshake, but then he SLAPS Hologram! The fans boo, Blake talks trash, and then Blake whips. Hologram handsprings, rolls, and SOBATS, KICKS, and CHOPS! The fans fire up as Blake flops back! Hologram builds speed, but Blake is up! Blake TOSSES Hologram out, then he builds speed. But Hologram ducks the slide! Blake runs up, Hologram sends Blake up to the apron! Blake mule kicks, but Hologram avoids the Quebrada! Hologram SUPERKICKS, then he goes to the apron! Blake avoids the leap, Hologram comes back, but Blake sends him into steel steps!
The fans boo while Hologram is down, but Collision goes to picture in picture.
Lee applauds Blake and Blake rolls into the ring. Blake distracts the ref so that Lee can stomp away on Hologram! Big Shotty gets away with that, and Blake waits on Hologram. Hologram rises, Blake builds speed, FOSBURY TOPE! Blake offers high-fives to the fans, but he leaves them all hanging. Blake drags Hologram up, puts him in the ring, then he stomps Hologram. Blake brings Hologram up, and he pulls at the mask! The ref reprimands, but Hologram KICKS Blake from below! Blake storms up to stomp Hologram again! Blake drags Hologram onto the ropes, CHOKES him, but stops as the ref counts.
Blake runs to STRADDLE ATTACK Hologram! Blake drags Hologram back up but Collision goes to break.
Collision returns and Blake has Hologram down with a motorcycle stretch. Hologram fights up as the fans rally, but Blake spins Hologram to keep the hold. But Hologram flips through, reels Blake in, NORTHERN LIGHTS! Bridging cover, TWO! Things speed up, and Hologram SHOTGUNS Blake first! Blake bails out, the fans fire up, and Hologram builds speed to DIVE! Lee takes the hit for Blake! The fans fire up, Hologram hurries to find Blake, but Blake kicks low! Blake drags Hologram up onto the barriers?! But Hologram fires body shots! And he RANAS Blake to the floor! Blake narrowly avoids hitting the steel steps and the fans fire up!
Hologram high-fives the front row, then stalks after Blake. Hologram goes up the steel steps, Lee storms up but Hologram mule kicks him! Blake jumps up to SPANISH FLY to the floor! Blake puts Hologram in, then springboards for a 450 SPLASH! Cover, TWO!! Hologram survives and Blake is frustrated! Blake slaps Hologram around, eggs him on, and then puts some stank on the- HEEL KICK from Hologram! Hologram fires up, he blocks Blake’s kick, but Blake SUPERKICKS from the other side! Blake whips, Hologram reverses, Blake rolls off the back, and he shoves Hologram to then SNAP POWERSLAM!
Blake somersaults to go to the ropes, LIONSAULT, but he has to bail out! Blake keeps running, Hologram gets him for a SPANISH FLY! Hologram fires up, torture racks Blake, but Blake slips free! Blake SWATS a lariat, ELBOWS Hologram, BODY BLOWS and BACKHANDS! SLING-DOG! Blake fires up, the fans boo, but Blake handsprings, into the torture rack! Airplane spin and PORTAL BOMB!! Cover, HOLOGRAM WINS!
Winner: Hologram, by pinfall
Vanilla Babyface was spicy, but Hologram comes out hotter! Will this 22-0 streak show Hologram is ready for a golden opportunity?
Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa & Kris Statlander.
Lexy is now with La Mera Mera & The Galaxy’s Greatest as she says we can officially announce they are also entering the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament! Kris says that last year, she was a completely different person in a much different place. But she still had the same goals as she does today. “To every woman in this tournament, and to every woman in the locker room, you can’t stop Stat!” Rosa says, “Unless you face me.” Much respect to Kris, but like Rosa told Toni Storm, Rosa never lost the AEW Women’s World Championship, and she’s yet to wear one since. So believe her when she says this: She will scratch and claw harder than ever to have the Cup above her head.
Kris says, “Unless you face me.” Rosa says okay, mamacita. See you in the Owen. They each wish the other luck, and then head out. Will La Mera Mera & The Galaxy’s Greatest battle to prove who is TRULY the best of the best?
Jamie Hayter VS Billie Starkz!
Hayter was preparing for Aminata, but it would seem Aminata’s loss to Hart has also lost her some time in the ring. But Billie is ready to step up to prove herself worthy of AEW’s bright lights! Will this be the start of Starkz’s legacy? Or will Hayter Hit Hard enough to be the number one seed in the Owen Hart Cup?
The bell rings and Billie circles with Hayter. Milwaukee cheers on Billie and Hayter encourages it. The two then tie up, and Hayter powers Billie to a corner. The ref counts, Hayter lets off with a pat on the shoulder, and Billie frowns. The two reset, tie up again, and Hayter again powers Billie to a corner. The ref counts again, and Hayter lets off with another pat on the shoulder. Billie frowns again, but the fans duel, “Let’s Go, Jamie!” “Billie Starkz!” They tie up, Hayter headlocks, and she grinds Billie down. Billie powers up and out, but Hayter runs Billie over! Things keep moving and Hayter runs Billie over again!
Hayter flexes, the fans are torn, but Billie is right up to stare Hayter down. The fans cheer, but Hayter pie faces Billie! Billie ROCKS Hayter! Billie whips, then follows, and she sunset flips over, TWO! Hayter gets up, Billie BUZZSAWS her down! The fans rally up, Billie whips Hayter but Hayter reverses. Hayter runs up, but into an ELBOW! Hayter comes back, but into a BOOT! Hayter is annoyed, she blocks boots this time but not the rebound ENZIGIRI! Billie goes up, up, but Hayter TOSSES Billie down! Billie writhes, rises, and Hayter is up the corner to MISSILE DROPKICK! Hayter flexes, the fans are torn, and Collision goes picture in picture.
Hayter stalks Billie, stomps her down, then stands on her! Billie endures until Hayter steps off, and then Hayter puts Billie on the ropes. Hayter CHOKES Billie, the ref counts, and Hayter steps off at 4. Hayter “apologizes” before she stalks Billie. Hayter drags Billie up, DDTS her by the ropes, then puts her back on the ropes. Hayter KNEE DROPS on Billie’s back, then KNEE DROPS again! And again! The ref reprimands but Hayter backs off. Hayter fires up the fans, then she goes back to kneel on Billie’s neck! The ref reprimands and counts, that’s not a cover! Hayter backs off, “apologizes” again, then has Billie in a corner.
Hayter smacks Billie off buckles, then runs her corner to corner to smack her off more buckles! Then Hayter goes to a third corner for buckle bumps! Hayter says let’s finish the set, and she runs Billie corner to corner for a buckle bump! Billie falls back, Hayter dusts her hands off, and then brings Billie up. But Billie WRINGS Hayter’s arm! And she SUPERKICKS Hayter down! Hayter staggers up, ducks the heel kick, and she shoves Billie for a SPINEBUSTER! Hayter then turns Billie over, HALF CRAB! Billie endures, reaches out for ropes, but Hayter sits deep on the hold! Billie reaches out, grits her teeth, and Collision returns to single picture.
Hayter tells Billie to just give up, but Billie refuses! The fans rally harder, and Billie powers up! Billie claws and crawls, to the ROPEBREAK! The ref counts, and Hayter lets go in frustration. Hayter runs, but Billie DUMPS her to the apron! Hayter swings, Billie ducks it to sweep the legs! SUPERKICK and Hayter goes to the floor! Billie builds speed and DIVES! Down goes Hayter at the ramp! Billie rises, the fans fire up, and Billie drags Hayter up and into the ring. Billie hurries up the corner while Hayter is down, SWANTON BOMB! Cover, TWO! Hayter stays in this and Billie is seeing what it is to be a former world champion.
Billie drags Hayter up, reels her in, and suplexes, only for Hayter to slip free! The fans duel while Hayter fireman’s carries, but Billie slips free to throw her down! Hayter gets up, DOUBLE FOREARMS from both women connect! DOUBLE ROUNDHOUSES connect, too! And then Hater SHOTGUNS Billie into a corner! The fans rally up harder while both women are down! Billie drags herself up with the ropes, Hayter rises at center. Hayter powers up, kisses the bicep, but Billie ducks the lariat to suplex! GHOSTBUSTER!! Cover, TWO!! Hayter survives and Billie is shocked! Billie seethes, and she storms up on Hayter!
Billie Electric Chair Lifts Hayter, but Hayter fires hands! Hayter shoves Billie away, fireman’s carries, and USHIGOROSHI! Hayter runs, and SLIDING HAYTERADE!! Cover, TWO!! Billie survives and now Hayter is frustrated! Hayter is seeing why Billie is the first and former ROH Women’s TV Champion. Hayter hauls Billie up, but Billie ducks the lariat! SNAP HALF ‘N’ HALF! Billie powers up, runs, but Hayter follows to LARIAT at the ropes! Hayter runs, Billie follows, and Billie BOOTS Hayter at the ropes! Billie runs, but Hayter SUPERKICKS! And ENZIGIRIS! Billie winds up, but Hayter gets under! GERMAN SUPLEX!! Cover, TWO!!
The fans are thunderous while Hayter is beside herself. Hayter grits her teeth and vows to end it! Hayter throws off the armbands, drags Billie up to wind up and- NO, Billie ducks the lariat to cravat and KNEE SMASH, then HEEL KICK! Billie fires up, winds up, but Hayter ducks that shot! Billie tries again, but Hayter blocks it to a cording hold! Hayter brings Billie along as she goes to the ropes, SPRINGBOARD HAYTERADE!!! Cover, HAYTER WINS!
Winner: Jamie Hayter, by pinfall
Now that was a Collision! Hayter is back, and she finds a new way to hit hard! Athena walks out on stage, and she waves hi to Hayter. Whether Billie impressed her or disappointed her, Athena now has her eyes on Hayter and everyone else in the Owen Hart Cup. Will the Fallen Goddess learn for herself that Hayter Hits Hard? Or will the Owen Hart Cup join the Athena World Domination Tour soon enough?
My Thoughts:
A very good Collision, talky as usual, but very good build towards Dynasty and the Owen Hart Cup simultaneously. Great opening promo from Toni, because she’s always great at promos, but they did a great job framing Ford’s blindside attack on Toni. And while Toni takes down Ford, Megan of course gets the last say on Toni. Toni is the underdog champion, knows she is, but knows she won’t let that stop her, and surely she comes out on top at Dynasty. Good promo from The Death Riders to hype up Dynamite. Claudio was very clever in using “Edge” and “Cope” in his part, and he will have a great match against Cope, but I would think Cope wins.
Marina had a great part calling out Willow, and that Mixed Tornado Tag will be awesome stuff. Dax VS Yuta was great, too, and real good win for Yuta. Dax losing his cool further waters the seed that is an FTR Heel Turn, but if this keeps up between Dax and Cash, could we end up with FTR VS FTR? That’d be rather wild, but it’d also make sense since FTR at some point said they were drawing closer to the end of their careers. A tag team like them, that has already done so much, having a 1v1 against each other is kinda the last thing to check off their bucket lists.
Great tag match from Bill & Keith VS Top Flight, one of the best Top Flight’s had in a minute since they’ve been going back and forth between AEW and ROH, but I figured Bill & Keith would win. They want their shot at The Hurt Syndicate, this gets them a step closer to that, and Top Flight still has The Cru after them anyway. I’m just not sure The Cru asking Nick Wayne to help out against Top Flight & AR Fox is the kind of story continuity they should be using right about now… Nick’s busy with this story against Christian Cage, he should focus on that. Unless the point is, if Patriarchy falls apart, Nick needs somewhere to go and someone to hand out with. But then The Cru is just three- Gasp! Cru-serweights…!
Great promo segment from Cole, Garcia and their friends, but uh, the announcement came in right as this segment started, so for us at home, it completely undercut how Garcia and Cole were building to making the No Time Limit title match. This is all still the right move, and Garcia telling Menard to stay away from ringside was a wild twist. Cole VS Garcia could be a borderline show stealer given how great their 20 minute draw was last time. And I still think that Cole should win the title, just so he finally has something in AEW aside from the tag title run alongside MJF. As for Garcia, losing the TNT title could be his opportunity to move on to another title, like the International or Continental Championship.
Hologram VS Blake was a rather random match to put on, but whatever, still great stuff. I wonder who finally pins/submits Hologram to end his win streak. It’d have to be someone that fans already have strong feelings for, good or bad. Like, Ospreay could get away being the guy that beats Hologram because it’s Ospreay. At the same time, MJF or Jericho could beat Hologram because not only do they have the power level, but fans love to hate them anyway so they’d love to hate MJF or Jericho as the guy who ended the streak.
And great stuff with the Women’s Owen Hart Cup, but also a build between Mercedes Mone and Athena. Mone of course beat Robyn Renegade, but she of course also had to talk trash on Billie & Athena. Athena finally being on AEW TV is great in itself, and she had a good promo with Billie to touch on the love-hate relationship between Minion Overlord and Minion 400,237 & 3/4ths that we’ve seen the past two years on ROH. Aminata going down with injury is a shame, and her promo with Deeb could’ve been a bit sharper on both ends. But Deeb naturally puts it on Aminata that Aminata needs to either join her or wrestle her, and I’m thinking we get the latter.
Good promo from Rosa and Statlander to not only add them to the Owen Hart Cup but to tease their match-up. Hayter VS Billie was a great main event, and it was another great showing for Billie in the loss. Athena confronting Hayter was also good stuff, and both Owen Hart Cups are looking to be the most star-studded ones yet. But as it stands, I’m thinking Rosa wins to get that world title match she has yet to get, and then we get Mone VS Athena for the TBS Championship, as teased tonight. All In: Texas will basically give both Rosa and Athena homefield advantage, and it’d be pretty wild if both of them won titles then.
